Main Event Marks – Details, episodes & analysis

With All Elite Wrestling holding their latest anniversary pay-per-view, Double or Nothing 2025, I felt the urge to do something I've never done on this show: Review a current show. I have no emotional attachment to this whatsoever, so I'm going in cold. I'll also be talking about WrestleMania 42's location issues, JR's cancer surgery, Billy Jack Haynes in trouble, and more in the news. www.youtube.com/@MarksOnMedia www.rumble.com/c/MainEventMarks Learn more about your ad choices.

All Elite Wrestling kicked off their pay-per-views in 2019 with Double or Nothing, main evented by Kenny Omega and Chris Jericho. The winner of that match would face the winner of the pre-show battle royal at All Out for the AEW World Title. The show was fine. Had some fun moments and great matches. But did it mean anything?

TNA Wrestling turned 10-years-old in June of 2012, and everything is bigger in Texas (including anniversaries)! For it's birthday/anniversary, the longest reigning TNA World Heavyweight Champion in history, Bobby Roode, defends the title against "The Icon" Sting the same night Sting is announced as going into the TNA Hall of Fame. Jeff Hardy, Rob Van Dam, and Mr. Anderson...Anderson all compete for the next in line for that World Title. Bully Ray seeks to brutalize Joseph Park, but will Abyss rear his ugly head? Gail Kim puts the Knockouts Women's Title on the line against Texas's own Miss Tessmacher. Also, WWE's Christian comes back for one night only...in the most anti-climactic way possible. On top of this, we cover what might be (wasn't) the end of Randy Orton in WWE, drama between Ken Doane, John Cena, and Mickie James, and yet another unhinged rant from Scott Steiner on Twitter.ALL PODCAST, SOCIAL MEDIA, & MERCHANDISE LINKS: linktr.ee/MainEventMarksCHECK OUT OUR MERCHANDISE: MainEventMarks.redbubble.com & bonfire.com/store/maineventmarksGET FUELED WITH SHOCKED ENERGY: https://shockedenergy.com/collections/all?sca_ref=1814354.mOXH7RrwKh&sca_source=MainEventMarks (promo code: MainEvent for 10% off)GET AWESOME SPORTS T-SHIRTS: intheclutch.com/MAINEVENT (use code "MAINEVENT" for 10% off)ORDER FROM SWIFT LIFESTYLES: SwiftLifestyles.com, use PROMO CODE: MainEventMarks at checkout for 15% offLISTEN EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 9PM EST: tikilive.com/channel/BURNS Learn more about your ad choices.

TNA Slammiversary V wasn't a show that exactly set the woods on fire, but overall, it was a pretty decent show. It was a time capsule of where TNA (now Impact Wrestling) was at the time. Can you believe they started in 2002 and are still around!? The main event is TNA's signature King of the Mountain match between Kurt Angle, AJ Styles, Christian Cage, Samoa Joe, and Chris Harris (replacing Jeff Jarrett). Jeff Jarrett couldn't attend the show after the passing of his wife, Jill. Rick Steiner also had to find a replacement partner as he took on Team 3D when Scott nearly died from a throat injury suffered in Puerto Rico. All of that is combined with Abyss and Tomko having a ridiculous No Disqualification match that you have to see to believe. In the news, we cover that along with WWE legends going into real estate (you'll never guess who), a WWE and WCW legend wanting back in the big leagues after a disgusting injury just 6 years prior, Jackass joining forces with WWE, and much more!ALL PODCAST, SOCIAL MEDIA, & MERCHANDISE LINKS: linktr.ee/MainEventMarksCHECK OUT OUR MERCHANDISE: MainEventMarks.redbubble.com & bonfire.com/store/maineventmarksGET FUELED WITH SHOCKED ENERGY: https://shockedenergy.com/collections/all?sca_ref=1814354.mOXH7RrwKh&sca_source=MainEventMarks (promo code: MainEvent for 10% off)GET AWESOME SPORTS T-SHIRTS: intheclutch.com/MAINEVENT (use code "MAINEVENT" for 10% off)ORDER FROM SWIFT LIFESTYLES: SwiftLifestyles.com, use PROMO CODE: MainEventMarks at checkout for 15% offLISTEN EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 9PM EST: tikilive.com/channel/BURNS Learn more about your ad choices.

Back in 1992, WCW was an interesting place. Ric Flair, who was the hood ornament for WCW for years was now in the WWF. Ricky Steamboat was back, Sting stepped up as a top guy, and Rick Rude came into the "company down south" to be a main eventer. Also, while the WWF's leader was constant with Vince McMahon, WCW was on their 3rd (maybe 4th?) leader within the last few years with Bill Watts at the helm. In the news, the World Bodybuilding Federation was tanking, Lex Luger was in a major motorcycle wreck, the future Razor Ramon and Yokozuna come into the WWF, a future Mexican legend makes his in-ring debut, Sid can't find a job, and more!ALL PODCAST, SOCIAL MEDIA, & MERCHANDISE LINKS: linktr.ee/MainEventMarksCHECK OUT OUR MERCHANDISE: MainEventMarks.redbubble.com & bonfire.com/store/maineventmarksGET FUELED WITH SHOCKED ENERGY: https://shockedenergy.com/collections/all?sca_ref=1814354.mOXH7RrwKh&sca_source=MainEventMarks (promo code: MainEvent for 10% off)GET AWESOME SPORTS T-SHIRTS: intheclutch.com/MAINEVENT (use code "MAINEVENT" for 10% off)ORDER FROM SWIFT LIFESTYLES: SwiftLifestyles.com, use PROMO CODE: MainEventMarks at checkout for 15% offLISTEN EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 9PM EST: tikilive.com/channel/BURNS Learn more about your ad choices.

Stone Cold Steve Austin walked out, the Rock returned early, the WWF is now the WWE, Brock Lesnar is on a meteoric rise to the top of the company, the Undertaker's got short hair and is running wild as the heel WWE Champion, and the nWo is trying to recruit Triple H. Lots of stuff is going on within Vince's Crazy Circus of Shirtless Men and we're covering all of it!

It was the night 3 NFL superstars (one now a fulltime wrestler) took part in a WCW pay-per-view! Slamboree was never one of WCW's marquee events throughout the year, but they tried to bring the goods in one of greatest years in company history (at least in our opinions). Not only did former Chicago Bear, Steve "Mongo" McMichael go one-on-one with Green Bay Packer and future Hall of Famer, Reggie White, but North Carolina Panther and future Hall of Famer, Kevin Greene, teamed with the legendary "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and "Nature Boy" Ric Flair to take on the NWO team of Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and Syxx. Chris Benoit faced off against Meng in a Death Match, the Dungeon of Doom implodes, Glacier and Mortis continue their feud as Wrath is brought into the fold, Ultimo Dragon and Lord Steven Regal have a banger for the TV Title, and Rey Mysterio Jr. takes on a NJPW star. All of this plus the Monday Night Wars and much more to discuss in the news segment!ALL PODCAST, SOCIAL MEDIA, & MERCHANDISE LINKS: linktr.ee/MainEventMarksCHECK OUT OUR MERCHANDISE: MainEventMarks.redbubble.com & bonfire.com/store/maineventmarksGET FUELED WITH SHOCKED ENERGY: https://shockedenergy.com/collections/all?sca_ref=1814354.mOXH7RrwKh&sca_source=MainEventMarks (promo code: MainEvent for 10% off)GET AWESOME SPORTS T-SHIRTS: intheclutch.com/MAINEVENT (use code "MAINEVENT" for 10% off)ORDER FROM SWIFT LIFESTYLES: SwiftLifestyles.com, use PROMO CODE: MainEventMarks at checkout for 15% offLISTEN EVERY WEDNESDAY AT 9PM EST: tikilive.com/channel/BURNS Learn more about your ad choices.
