This was a loaded weekend in the wrestling business. For the first time ever, big dog WWE programmed against upstart AEW with Evolve, the Gabe Sapolsky led promotion that has a partership with WWE, putting several NXT talents on their 10th Anniversary show, which aired on the WWE Network at the same time AEW's Fight For The Fallen, a benefit show for the families of the victims of a mass shooting in Jacksonville earlier in the year was on B/R Live and FITE, depending on your location.
It wouldn't be a week in the wrestling business without Jim Cornette being involved in one way or another. From avoiding a possible disaster in Knoxville to more dumping on Joey Janella, to retweeting second-hand a tweet by a guy who was stupid enough to not only rip on Jim, but also POSTED HIS NUMBER ON TWITTER asking Janella to text him. Well wait until you hear what one of our hosts did, you'll bust a gut, we guarantee it!
Sunday, of course, was Extreme Rules, a show that signaled the end of Vince McMahon being completely in charge. There were a lot of title changes on that show, including, of course, the one that caused the most negative reaction. Last night was the first official show with Paul Heyman at the helm, and if this is any indication of what is going to happen in the upcoming weeks, welcome to Attitude Era 2.0. Tonight begins the Eric Bischoff Era on SmackDown Live as they mark their final weeks on USA Network before making the move to Fox. Wrestling fans know how Eric blurred the lines between story and reality, especially with the nWo, it will be interesting to see how far he is allowed to go, especially if Vince really does stay hands off.
We'll discuss all these things and more, including the latest on the Jeff Hardy public intoxication case, with Katie, Sean, and the returning Dean Of Wrestling Referees Steve Cain, TONIGHT!
