| TNA Impact, July 15th & 22nd 2010 (Tommy Dreamer Cries!) | 05 Nov 2026 | 02:25:08 | |
It's time! Tommy Dreamer is here, t-shirt packing equipment in hand, and he's ready to cry about WWECW! In fairness to him, it had us on the verge of tears at times. (Episode record October 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Victory Road, July 11th 2010 | 01 Oct 2026 | 02:26:57 | |
Titles on the line, careers on the line, our sanity on the line, as NOTHING HAPPENS! (Episode recorded September 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, July 1st & 8th 2010 (Abyss Builds Janice) | 03 Sep 2026 | 02:35:08 | |
These episodes genuinely infuriate us both in their level of boring. Seriously, we're very angry about it. (Episode recorded August 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, June 17th & 24th 2010 (Abyss Loses His Mind) | 06 Aug 2026 | 02:36:24 | |
Time for Hulk Hogan to eat his own ring! ...Not like that. (Episode recorded July 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #13: WWE Backlash, April 30th 2006 (feat. William Thompson!) | 15 Jul 2026 | 02:47:30 | |
Thanks to Bryan over on our Patreon, we're finally tackling the arrival of the Creator in WWE, and who better to do it with than our old friend William Thompson? What a demented episode. William is going on tour this year! Check out the dates here: https://williamthompsoncomedy.com/live (Episode recorded June 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Slammiversary, June 13th 2010 | 03 Jul 2026 | 02:17:15 | |
Let's celebrate TNA's birthday by boring ourselves to death! (Episode recorded June 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, May 20th & 27th 2010 (Top 10 Rankings Revealed) | 04 Jun 2026 | 02:04:56 | |
We've hit a turning point in the season, as the other shoe finally drops on these two shoddy Impacts! (Episode recorded May 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Sacrifice, May 16th 2010 | 07 May 2026 | 02:13:53 | |
We've found it! That's right, we've finally found the most boring pay-per-view we've ever seen! Well done us. (Episode recorded April 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| PATREON PREVIEW: Wrestlemania I & Wrestlemania II! | 13 Apr 2026 | 04:36:45 | |
Happy Wrestlemania week! We're celebrating by releasing TWO episodes from our Patreon series, Monday Morning Mania! Let's go back to the very beginning, and discover just how janky the first two Wrestlemanias were. This is indeed a happening. Enjoy! (Episodes recorded January and February 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, May 3rd & 13th 2010 (The Return to Thursday Nights) | 02 Apr 2026 | 02:26:43 | |
Well, that Monday night experiment was fun while it lasted. Not as fun as Ronan's Welsh impression though - that's an all-timer. (Episode recorded March 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, April 19th & 26th 2010 (Lockdown Fallout) | 05 Mar 2026 | 01:49:12 | |
We catch up with a big reset episode of Impact, as they realise Monday nights aren't workin', brother! The mad bit? The hotshotting is actually entertaining! (Episode recorded February 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Lockdown, April 18th 2010 | 05 Feb 2026 | 02:47:30 | |
Every single bit of this episode takes place INSIDE A STEEL CAGE, BROTHER! (Episode recorded January 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #12: WWE Raw Belfast & Impact on AMC | 22 Jan 2026 | 02:11:07 | |
Since we covered the big launch of Hulk Hogan joining TNA, we thought it only fitting to review TNA's debut on AMC from last week. Then, almost on a whim, we went to Raw in Belfast for Ronan's birthday. Let's talk about them both! (Episode recorded January 2026) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, April 5th & April 12th 2010 (Hulk Hogan barks) | 08 Jan 2026 | 03:03:18 | |
It's the last stop before Lockdown, and this episode has got it all! You want convoluted stipulations? You want dramatic hit and runs? You want horny wrestling fans? They're all here! Not only that, we get what might be Alan's favourite wrestling moment ever! (Episode recorded December 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| Santa with Muscles! | 18 Dec 2025 | 01:32:05 | |
Here's a wee Christmas bonus for you! Released last year on our Patreon, this is our review of quite possibly the worst Christmas film of all time. Seriously, this is one big steaming turd. Please enjoy our pain. This is just one of over 50 episodes available now for just $5 a month! Thanks for all your listens in 2025, and we'll see you in 2026! (Episode recorded December 2024) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, March 22nd & March 29th 2010 (The build to Lockdown begins!) | 04 Dec 2025 | 03:04:36 | |
We're on the road to Lockdown, and we kick it off with an actually decent show! Unfortunately that's one of the signs of the apocalypse, so don't hold out hope for more episodes. Just a quick note that our audio crapped out right near the end, so you may notice the goodbyes are quite abrupt. We would have re-recorded, but hi, this is Alan, uploading the episode at 1.38am when it's releasing at 5am, so you'll take what you're given. (Episode recorded November 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Destination X, March 21st 2010 | 06 Nov 2025 | 02:01:26 | |
The Hogan/Bischoff era is well and truly settled in now. Let's celebrate with prat falls, dog tags and big money contracts. Nice. (Episode recorded October 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, March 8th & March 15th 2010 (The New Monday Night War Begins!) | 06 Oct 2025 | 01:59:09 | |
It's time to tackle TNA's ill-fated attempt to recreate the mid-90s all over again, using mostly the same people. If we had a quid for every time Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair feuded, we'd have about £15, which isn't bad really. P.S. Sorry this one is a bit late, it's been a mad week! (Episode recorded September 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, February 18th & February 25th 2010 (Abyss gets Hogan's ring) | 05 Sep 2025 | 02:44:52 | |
The road to Monday night Impact becomes a lot clearer, and it mostly revolves around Hulk Hogan's Hall of Fame ring. Yes, it's that episode. (Episode recorded August 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Against All Odds, February 14th 2010 | 07 Aug 2025 | 01:45:06 | |
We all love a tournament! Well, on paper at least. Anyway, who cares about a tournament when there's opportunity for Eric Bischoff to insert himself into everything again? (Episode recorded April 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, January 21st & January 28th 2010 (The Orlando Screwjob) | 02 Jul 2025 | 02:57:36 | |
Okay, it hasn't got off to a great start, but things can turn around, can't they? All we need is a Montreal rerun, and then we're off to the races! (Episode recorded April 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Genesis, January 17th 2010 | 05 Jun 2025 | 02:30:45 | |
It's the first PPV of the Hogan/Bischoff era, and there's no more stinkin' playpen rings, and lots more Sean Morley. That will definitely go well... (Episode recorded March 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| TNA Impact, January 4th & January 14th 2010 (Hulk Hogan's Debut) | 01 May 2025 | 03:18:32 | |
He's here, and he's brought lots of awful friends with him! It's only fitting that an event as big as this has led to our longest ever recording. If you were wondering, the descent into madness begins around the two-hour mark. The absolute boy of Season 1 was Big Vito, while Mike Knox got the accolade in Season 2. Have we already found the absolute boy of Season 3? You bet your ass. (Episode recorded March 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| SEASON 3 PREMIERE: TNA Final Resolution, 20th December 2009 | 03 Apr 2025 | 02:33:09 | |
It's time, brother! Much like the arrival of Hulk Hogan in TNA, the arrival of Season 3 is greatly hyped, we start talking about him before he's even appeared on TV, and things are better before he got there. Hopefully you're as excited as we were to witness the power of TWTWmania! (Episode recorded March 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #11 - CZW Ultraviolent Tournament of Death II, July 26th 2003 (and the AIWF!) | 20 Mar 2025 | 02:41:31 | |
It's our last stop before Hogan hits TNA in Season 3, and it's the grossest episode we've ever done. We take a look at both the AIWF from our Louis Theroux episode, and one of CZW's annual deathmatch tournaments. JESUS! You can find the CZW show here: https://iwtv.live/promotion/Combat-Zone-Wrestling#dxLBOeZ7NQ And you can find the AIWF matches here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLonFwNn8sgLIqbC2S0j-GGHiWf-lxk74f&si=C0JjFr4dTD2LutWB We'll see you in Season 3, BROTHER! (Episode recorded March 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #10 - The Best There Was #2: WWF Backlash, April 30th 2000 | 27 Feb 2025 | 02:29:30 | |
It's the penultimate bonus episode before Season 3, and we've decided to give ourselves a little treat by watching an all-time classic pay-per-view. Seriously, this was bloody great. (Episode recorded February 2025) Our final bonus episode will cover CZW Ultraviolent Tournament of Death II from 2003, and also check in with the AIWF from our Louis Theroux episode! You can find the CZW show here: https://iwtv.live/promotion/Combat-Zone-Wrestling#dxLBOeZ7NQ And you can find the AIWF matches here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLonFwNn8sgLIqbC2S0j-GGHiWf-lxk74f&si=C0JjFr4dTD2LutWB We'll not lie - we're dreading it! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #9 - HUSTLE 3, May 8th 2004 | 06 Feb 2025 | 01:57:09 | |
Is this the weirdest show we've covered? It might well be! This show can be tracked down online, but a version with subtitles that we used for recording can be found on our Patreon. It's somehow even less comprehensible when you know what people are saying. Now let's do it together: 3...2...1...HUSTLE HUSTLE! (Episode recorded January 2025) Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #8 - Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends: "Wrestling" and "Looking for Love" | 27 Jan 2025 | 01:48:02 | |
Time to take a look at Louis Theroux's foray into low-level independent wrestling and WCW. Also, just because we want to, we watch and discuss possibly the greatest documentary star of them all, Lake Palmer! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #7 - IMPACT One Night Only: Hardcore Justice 2, July 5th 2013 (feat. Dave Elliott!) | 16 Jan 2025 | 01:53:00 | |
We ring in 2025 by dipping our toes into the tepid waters of TNA's self-contained pay-per-views, and we're joined by our friend, fellow comedian Dave Elliott! It's a lovely lovely time. Well, the chat is; the show is suitably poor quality. Enjoy! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #6 - Q&A Special! | 26 Dec 2024 | 02:10:59 | |
Festive greetings to you all! We're celebrating the end of Season 2 with a big heap of questions sent in by you, our lovely listeners! We were absolutely delighted with the number of responses; thank you, it really means a lot. Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| Season 2 Awards - The Best & Worst of WWECW | 06 Dec 2024 | 01:43:10 | |
We've got the tuxedos out of the wardrobe, we're all bloated from a fancy dinner, and we've had one too many cocktails - it's time for the awards ceremony! Let's find out who are the winner, the losers and the creamy middlers of Season 2! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #26&27, December 4th & December 11th 2006 | 14 Nov 2024 | 01:27:20 | |
It's the coda of Season 2 (before we do the awards, anyway), and the aftermath of December to Dismember is a real opportunity for a reset of ECW. An opportunity that the company absolute fails to seize. Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| PATREON PREVIEW - Straight to DDT #3: Pro Wrestlers vs Zombies | 31 Oct 2024 | 01:39:41 | |
As a special Halloween treat, we're uploading our review of the legendarily bad "Pro Wrestlers vs Zombies", the 2013 horror film starring Jim Duggan, Roddy Piper, Matt Hardy, Reby Sky, Kurt Angle, and The Franchise, hahahahahahahahaha! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW December to Dismember, December 3rd 2006 | 24 Oct 2024 | 01:44:33 | |
It's here! WWECW has supposedly been building to this show for months; will it have the air of a Wrestlemania? Almost certainly not. Will it be any good? Almost certainly not. Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #23, 24 & 25, November 14th, November 21st & November 28th 2006 | 03 Oct 2024 | 01:59:07 | |
It's a bumper episode as we count down to December to Dismember. Three weeks of TV, so surely some stuff has to happen, right? RIGHT?! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #21&22, October 31st & November 7th 2006 | 12 Sep 2024 | 01:18:53 | |
It's Halloween, it's the Sci-Fi Network, surely that'll be good for some exciting content as the build to December to Dismember kicks into high gear, right? Wrong! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #5 - The Places We Went #2 - AEW All In, August 25th 2024 | 27 Aug 2024 | 02:07:33 | |
Two very sleepy boys with sore throats take a deep dive into this weekend's action at Wembley. As a bonus, this episode also includes some poo chat. Consider yourself lucky! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #19&20, October 17th & October 24th 2006 | 22 Aug 2024 | 01:32:49 | |
Season Two is entering the home straight, although actually that's not the best metaphor, as the home straight usually implies an exciting picking up of the pace. ECW on Sci-Fi is very much not achieving that objective! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #17&18, October 3rd & October 10th 2006 | 01 Aug 2024 | 01:29:20 | |
Silver lining: ECW on Sci-Fi is finally trying something new. Massive cloud: the thing they're trying is Extreme Strip Poker. Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #15&16, September 19th & September 26th 2006 | 11 Jul 2024 | 01:32:00 | |
Full disclaimer: Alan and Ronan are very hungover for this one. Is ECW on Sci-Fi the ultimate hangover cure? Of course not! An added layer of torture has been added, as this episode starts with a review of DX against Big Show and the McMahons inside *adopts Vince McMahon/gruff hangover voice* HELL IN A CELL! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| PATREON PREVIEW - Straight to DDT #1: Money Plane | 24 Jun 2024 | 01:21:48 | |
Enjoy a little sneak peek of just some of the great content available on our Patreon *(http://patreon.com/twtwpod), with this, the first edition of Straight to DDT, where we cover wrestlers in bad films! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #13&14, September 5th & September 12th 2006 | 20 Jun 2024 | 01:10:48 | |
Hey look, ECW on Sci-Fi hasn't been great so far, but apparently they're trying new things here, so maybe...*checks notes*, oh God. Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| BONUS EPISODE #4 - The Best There Was #1: Beyond the Mat | 12 Jun 2024 | 02:25:02 | |
As a (somewhat belated) second birthday present to ourselves, we're starting a new bonus series called The Best There Was, where we finally review some good things. We start with arguably the greatest wrestling documentary of all time, as TWTW delves into Beyond the Mat! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #11&12, August 22nd & August 29th 2006 | 30 May 2024 | 01:23:59 | |
Summerslam is over, but it's still Groundhog Day in ECW, as we watch a lot of rematches again. Still, is it possible that these may actually be a couple of decent episodes of TV? I mean, not really, but any port in a storm! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| WWE Summerslam, August 20th 2006 | 09 May 2024 | 01:44:33 | |
Season 2 takes a quick detour into WWE proper, and it's a decision that we now greatly regret. Who's ready for the biggest funeral of the summer? Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #9&10, August 8th & August 15th 2006 | 18 Apr 2024 | 01:54:40 | |
This is a very silly episode. Frankly, finding anything funny in this continuous dross is great luck in itself. You won't believe this, but we get some bad squash matches, low-quality vignettes and bad Tommy Dreamer segments! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| First Video Episode Released! | 10 Apr 2024 | 00:01:47 | |
Hello! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #7&8, July 25th and August 1st 2006 | 28 Mar 2024 | 01:42:24 | |
It's Groundhog Day all over again, as Kelly strips, Kevin Thorn gurns, and The Big Show defends his title against some very un-ECW challengers. It's all happening! Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #5&6, July 11th & 18th 2006 | 07 Mar 2024 | 01:56:38 | |
The Big Show Era of WWECW begins, and WWE has picked the perfect first challengers for his title. I mean, when you think ECW, you think Ric Flair and The Undertaker, don't you? Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
| ECW on Sci-Fi #3&4, June 27th & July 4th 2006 | 15 Feb 2024 | 01:27:01 | |
Okay, there's no denying that ECW on Sci-Fi got off to a rocky start, but things have to get better from here, right? Linktree - http://www.linktre.ee/twtwpod | |||
