WRESTLING SOUP & FRIENDOS!

WSF is actually getting this early. Even before the GoT feed.

My guest is the incomparable April Hunter. Nitro girl. Wrestler. Fitness model. Cosplay model. Playboy model. Content creator. Independent thinker. 

And a potential regular contributor to the GoT family.

What's Wrestling Potluck? It's any wrestling related content that doesn't fit into one of our existing shows. The content and hosts will be variety and varied,

In our inaugural episode, we welcome Kayfabe Keaton from North Ireland. He's wrestled for numerous promotions. He's been a commentator. He's wrestled for a Heavyweight title. He's the host of a podcast and docuseries. And he's only 13 years old.

Check him out. Hear his story, Follow him and subscribe to his shows. I have a feeling you'll be glad you did.

The Work: Wrestling Psychology 

Episode 2: Why we get bored

Wrestling feels flat right now? You’re not the only one. In this episode, I take the poll results from X where fans said things are “too predictable” and “dragging,” and break down what’s really going on with stories, characters, and the way shows are put together.

Then we flip it: I introduce “Fan Experience Crafting” – small changes you can make in how you watch (spoilers, live TV, which promotions you follow, when you take breaks) so wrestling actually feels fun again.

If you’ve ever thou...

From the UK or Mount Olympus, Zeus joins the team and brings us the Wrestling Roast Smackdown Review show.

Super Panda has wrestled all over the world. He's also trained the likes of Luchasaurus and Killer Kross. He also has studied in mystery schools and secret societies and is a vessel of wisdom. Additionally, he's an Emmy Award winner and has done many, many interesting things. You'll never look at Chinese racoons the same way again. 

Oh! And much better audio this episode and more PJ Black!

If you are new to the show or network, this is the premier episode of The Book of Black, cohosted by Jeff Lippman and PJ Black. Our inaugural guest was Aron Stephens FKA Damien Sandow.

We discuss the role of the Roman Catholic Chruch. We discuss Freemasonry. The difference between a Society with Secrets and a Secret Society. Yup, it's wrestlers (and me) getting esoteric. Sure, we discuss some wrestling. You'll hear us break the news that NWA was expecting a TV deal in the coming months. That happened. Interesting stuff drops when you're just chatting with friends.  Duration: 01:28:20

In this first episode, I break down why “heels” often become the most watched, most talked-about, and most memorable people in wrestling. We look at what heels do that hooks our attention, why they spark stronger emotions than “good guys,” and how they shape the whole story by giving fans something to react to and rally against. I also connect it to basic psychology, including identity, group behavior, and why we sometimes enjoy being annoyed, outraged, or challenged as part of the entertainment.

If you’ve ever caught yourself cheering for the person you’re “not supposed to like,” this ep...

Chocolate and Dos start with a bit of pre-show banter and then sing the Angel's Choir about It's GAL acting as the narrator. Setting the tone and laying down all facts, no feelings (unless he feels like it) about this show. This should become a regular fixture. Screw that, straight to the Main Roster and have a segment every week.

It's time the settle the discord between the WWE ID guys and the PC guys. The stakes are high in the team gauntlet match. We also love this match concept. 

Plenty of promos and vignettes with a...

Evil Dos and (Chon Chon) Chocolate are back with what might be the best episode of Evolve since the last best episode of Evolve.

This episode includes AI-generated content.

Don and Choc talk about John Cena's last week at work, who his final opponenent should be, could possibly be (we recorded this before Smackdown), and wash his balls for a lil bit. Also we talk about investment options for the dabbling investor and other financial pitfalls to avoid.

We go into week 39 with another title match for Kendal Grey and we see the likes of Tate Wilder act way fkn bigger than he really is. Slowdown, there, Crossfit Cowboy, save some cousins for the rest of us. Cause they're soooo attractive. YEEEE HAWWWW!!!

Don Reynolds brings his usual insights and reminisces about ancient cell phone tech while keeping it simple. Leisure Suit Larry comes up somehow.

WC is joined by Dr. Brian as they talk not celebrating holidays meant for child-adults, while Don Reynolds is still on reassignment. Choc finally takes advantage of actual good movies on Tubi while Brian corrals the children. Also, stupid videos.
