AEW Revolution 2022 Preview

The Wrestling Caucus kicks off 2022 talking about the big and bland The Wrld on GCW show, the equally bland Royal Rumble with very few bright spots and the fantastic CM Punk and MJF match last week on Dynamite. We also had some words about that ridiculous Cody Rhodes fourth wall shattering promo and that embarrassing Brandy Rhodes and Dan Lambert segment.

Remember Guys, It Doesn't Count

This week on The Wrestling Caucus, we recap what was probably the best AEW Full Gear card since its inception in 2019. I (Peter A) was at the Target Center in Minneapolis and Smileyarriaga was back in New York watching it on PPV. I noticed a lot of CM Punk merch and Smiley, (among others) had issues with the PPV broadcast. Punk and Kingston beat the shit out of each other without traditional heel and face dynamics, Britt Baker is amazing, Tay Conti is a future star, Bryan Danielson is probably the best wrestler in the world (no secret), Thunder Rosa on the Buy In is questionable at best, and Mr Cowboy Shit finally beat Kenny! AEW seems to be investing in the future but I really wish they would do so in under four hours. -- Connect with The Wrestling Caucus:  https://twitter.com/wrestlingcaucus https://www.instagram.com/thewrestlingcaucus/ https://www.peteraradio.com/thewrestlingcaucus--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/twcpod/message

AEW Full Gear 2021 Preview

On a brand new episode of The Wrestling Caucus, we talk up the WWE Champion, Big E and the meaning behind his recent interview on The Breakfast Club, why everyone should pay attention to All Japan Pro Wrestling and Pro Wrestling NOAH, and the recent troubling news regarding Ring of Honor. We also talk up one of the most important aspects of wrestling, psychology.

The Name of The Game Is Psychology 

Returning from our apathetic nap, The Wrestling Caucus is back to discuss whether or not to talk WWE on this show unless theres a Dwayne Johnson level angle that takes place. Why? World Wrestling Entertainment is void of any wrestling logic and has not been very entertaining as of late. Dolls, zombies, a minority of compelling characters and a complete lack of cohesive storytelling have made it impossible to watch this promotion from a week to week basis. We also give our thoughts from attending both AEW Dynamite shows in the tri-state area at the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ and at Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens, NY.    ---   Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/twcpod/message

We Have To Talk About WWE

This week on The Wrestling Caucus, myself (Peter A) and smileyarriaga talk interviewers in wrestling. What about them you say? Well, smiley was annoyed seeing how interviewers were portrayed on TV. He has a point because in WWE, interviewers can come across as robotic tools with no credibility or personality. In AEW, some of their more credible interviewers are not taken seriously by the wrestlers because they are either shoved aside, super kicked, and they usually have their mics taken away from them. I personally think pro-wrestling is moving away from establishing new credible interviewers. Alicia Atout from MLW seems to be the exception but hopefully she will become the rule.  -- All things The Wrestling Caucus:  https://www.peteraradio.com/thewrestlingcaucus--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/twcpod/message

Interviewers! Are Now

Two brothers, Peter A and Smiley Arriaga discussing the world of professional wrestling.

On June 27th, 2011, CM Punk cut his infamous "pipebomb" promo, a worked shoot angle that turned him into one of the most popular starts in WWE. Ten years later, The Wrestling Caucus, Peter A and smileyarriaga reflect on The Summer of Punk and how his momentum was squandered that summer by getting into a pointless program with Kevin Nash and subsequently losing clean to Triple H, who transitioning into an office role both in storyline and in real life. Throughout the 2010's, Becky Lynch, Daniel Brian, and Kofi Kingston all built an organic connection with WWE fans similar to CM Punk, all to have their momentum slowed down in some form.  -- All things The Wrestling Caucus:  https://www.peteraradio.com/thewrestlingcaucus  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/twcpod/message
