We're back to maximum strength this week talking about Joe and Mox in a steel cage…yes please…and Kyle Fletcher continuing his WOTY push.

We forget how belts work, Seth and Jey put on a stellar main event on Raw and we make our Backlash predictions for this weekend.

Also, go watch Sinners…like now, do it now. Or Ellis will defo spoil it for you

Ellis and Joe lead you through the week as John has thankfully remembered his wedding anniversary.

We have Seth's new boys destroying Sami, a TLC for the ages, Joe lining up Mox and more to fit your ears onto!

WrestleMania has brought the brilliant in triple threat matches and the downright ridiculous in the night 2 main event…we break it all down including a disastrous PR tour pre mania.

Meanwhile, AEW celebrate being the longest running Turner network wrestling promotion and pump out their best show of the year with 2 of the best TV matches of the year.

Don't call it a comeback, but it is. Yes we are back after the last few weeks of technical difficulties, injuries and suspected ghost attacks to tell you all the usual things you have grown to know and hopefully love about DV.

We got the news, we got reviews, we got all the predictions for the 8 thousand Wrestlemania matches that are happening. There is also Ian Skinner facts, a new evening meal and we hear about Ellis and his trip to the cinema.

Its good to be back

OPW put on their best show yet with Dekker carrying the brand into the next era as shown by a tremendous opening vignette and match with Kollins.

The show introduced fresh talent like Sonam and Barnes off the back of the Rumble, advancing the impact of Greenwood as GM on Meat Wagon as well as Ethan and the culmination of the RPD and Markus blood feud in their Last Man Standing match which legitimately swerved us 

There's also shout out to the production and feel of the show as well as the great work of the refs.

In response to Rick Markus’s interview last week RPD hits back at Rick's claims that RPD used Rick and the Morecambe faithful. 

However, he is very reflective over the changes he has undergone in the last year as he's spiralled since Rick betrayed him and for the first time in his career is doubtful if he can win at War on the Shore with his career on the line.

You'll have to show up for the 20 year anniversary War on the Shore to find out if this is the end of RPD in Morecambe or not.

The God of Morecambe joins us to explain how his 8 year history with Morecambe and relationship with RPD has led him to the 20 year anniversary of War on the Shore and facing his former Born Ready brother in a Last Man Standing match with RPD’s career on the line.

He also talks about manipulating Ethan, winning the Overboard Rumble contract and how fickle the Morecambe crowd are but ultimately he will have the last laugh at War on the Shore.

It's gonna be a must see show and a 20 year anniversary show at that, so get along!
