Also Matt found a version of the Rockers theme song from a short lived feud with The Rougeau's Kate from Fightful joins us to talk about the Free Agency period that is upon us & what it means for the likes of Natty, Ricochet, Chad Gable & Becky Lynch. Is WWE Forever or do they go elsewhere? From Kate we go to "The Main Feature" Rich Maxwell. Part of the JJ Rouge family, we are introduced to Rich and we have some wild conversations about everything but wrestling, and of course who trained him. It's a ball buster of a time & a great time with Rich. His links are below, please follow & support him. Back from commercial break, Handsome Kevin & Tony both have some issues with Mercedes Moné. This leads us to Dave Meltzer & his ratings based off of what he gave Willow/Mone at Double or Nothing, before we get too deep on this, we have a surprise guest drop in, it's Diana. After we catch up with Diana, we head to some place we haven't been for a while, and that's MLW. We all watched Battle Riot & mostly we were left disappointed. What say you? We hit on a few more topics, AJ Styles faking his retirement, AEW not creating stars with their young talent, TNA/NXT Forbidden Door, AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door & the Death of WCW show. Overall its a long show, but its a ton of fun with a lot of wrestling talk & talk about wrestling Be sure to follow Kate here https://t.co/RVLtXCv7GE Be sure to follow the Main Feature Rich Maxwell here https://t.co/KTeYJVB0S4 Follow The Shining Wizards here https://t.co/JxBwhzKl9E…

We waste not time getting right into the world of wrestling, as we land in AEW & Tony hates that every single feud seems to be about people being friends, and then having them turn on each other. Its a pretty interesting take and a lot of laughs. Speaking of laughs, NWA 75 is this weekend, so they run down the card & answer the age old question, are we really picking this? It's then time for Over the Top, as its HK vs T Donk, each man prepared 6 facts, you tell us which ones are the best Big news of the week is Edge finishing up in the WWE, we speculate if he will go to AEW, or if his post match promo stays true. Would you like to see Edge in AEW? Would it hurt his legacy? Lacy Evans is covered as well, and that somehow gets us to the Tammy Sytch news. It's heartbreaking as Tammy has been nothing but nice to us, but we can't help but have some fun with this, even pulling up the audio from her leaked Onlyfans We take a little break before coming back with some Monster Factory on Apple TV talk, as Tony caught the series, and with the news of Wrestlers being on Netflix in September it was only right to cover the topic Wrestlemania 40 is breaking all kinds of records, and we speculate why, is it cause Roman will lose? Is the Rock Involved? What is up with Rikishi? Matt talks about going down the rabbit hole and watching a lot of Terry Gordy, he just say's it without thinking of the consequences We rave about the WWE product overall, talk about Super Mario & Spellbinder from USWA, play the wrong song to wrap up the show and have a ton of laughs.

The Wizards are back with another episode covering the world of professional wrestling. After a short open, Matt poses the question, if Ricky Steamboat had a Tag Team Partner, would you rather it be Tito Santana or KoKo B Ware circa 1991. This leads us to the 1990 IC Title Tournament, we know Mr Perfect won beating Tito Santana, but who were the other 6 men in the tournament? We hit Over the Top and cover all the results from the week, before taking about our favorite cold snacks to eat. Matt loves an egg roll cold and there is outrage, so we bring in our guest Darin Corbin to have him add his two cents to the conversation.

What Tony isn't excited for is the possibility of Dominik crashing Rey's Hall of Fame ceremony. This leads us to talk about the current announcements for the 2023 Hall of Fame and who else we think we go in. We hit on the Kenny Omega/Vikingo debate. Is a dream match a bad thing? The boys weigh in, talk a little about AEW Dynamite, talk turns to the NWA as Matt watched Powerrr and Tony watched USA.

In this week's episode the boys start the show with an interesting conversation. Matt just watched the Jeff Hardy ROH Debut from 2003, and that sends the boys down a rabbit hole of Jeff Hardy, and Matt Hardy. It's an unscheduled down the aisle to kick off the show. They transition over to the Karl Anderson WWE/NJPW situation. We ponder on if it's a work or not, go over some of the Crown Jewel card, talk a little about the Triple H era so far before jumping over to picks & NXT Halloween Havoc. Somewhere along the way, Tony has to deal with his dryer, and this leads to a very strange conversation about how the Wizards do the laundry. This ate up a lot of time, that we can't get back. We are then joined by Former MLW National Openweight Champion and Leader of the Bomaye Fight Club Alex Kane. The Suplex Assassin talks with us about a variety of subjects, from Crybaby Calvin, to working with Davey Richards, sharting, the PWI 500, BW 500 and MORE. If you aren't familiar with Alex Kane, this is the interview to check out. After a quick break, we are joined by the Can You Beat That Champion Christian Rocco as he watches Matt and Kevin battle it out for the #1 contender ship and a chance to challenge the Champion on November 21st. Before pulling the train into the station we hit on a few things from the NWA, AEW, Impact and ROH.

We unpack this crazy battle royal winner vs Jon Moxley vs Winner of the Dominion match situation, and Tony is annoyed by the rankings. We run down the NJPW Dominion Card and then take a quick break After the break we are back with our Wizards Rewind, as we go back to November 7th 1987, WWF Superstars of Wrestling show. We talk about all the matches, moments, promos as we are on the road to Survivor Series 1987. We ponder what version of Jake the Snake we preferred when it came to the DDT, Out of Nowhere or Short Arm Clothesline set up. Randy Savage Promo's, the unlikely tag team of Billy Jack Haynes & Ken Patera, Sika, Strike Force and much more. It's old school wrestling talk, and it's what we do best.

Happy Memorial Day The boys are back and talking all things wrestling.....well sort of. We are joined by "The Outlaw" of Wildkat Sports Matt Lancie. We talk a ton of topics, from what Wildkat means to him, to if it's appropriate to wish someone a Happy Birthday on Twitter, being a trainer at the school, Johnny Walker Black, and the HUGE X Rated Show taking place on June 25th. Matt also announces who his opponent will be, and its a big deal. After Matt's excellent interview we find out that Kevin takes a 30 minute shows, and that's a whole conversation before we take a quick break. We come back with some coverage of our AEW Double or Nothing Picks, the MJF situation, and do a quick gloss over the Double or Nothing PPV. For your in depth look at AEW, check out the Mark Order Podcast every Wednesday Night. Then it's Down The Aisle. The untimely passing of Tarzan Goto sends us back to the ECW Arena, Heatwave 96.

Kevin, Matt and Tony are back with another exciting episode of The Shining Wizards Wrestling Podcast The soft open, the boys try and button up this nonsense about Tony & the Can You Beat That Championship committee. We get a little clarity, but we still don't have a clue what is going on. We quickly catch up before we are joined by our guests, The Death Samurai AKIRA. He's had a shit travel day but is kind enough to join us. We talk about being a deathmatch wrestler, Jon Moxley wearing his hoodie on Dynamite, Masha, OPW, H20, wrestling his significant other and much more. Its a great interview and insight to AKIRA. A man you should have your eyes on. After a quick break we briefly touch on the Ibushi situation, before talking about Cody Rhodes being the guy to take the title off of Roman Reigns. This turns into a conversation about guys who didn't work out in one promotion but were successful in another, and leads to us taking a premature trip Down the Aisle to talk Lex Luger and SummerSlam 1993, Tatanka, Allied Powers and more. We get back on track with some this and that's about NJPW, Impact Wrestling, MLW, and NWA. Does seeing Jay White lose in Impact effect his stock in New Japan Pro Wrestling? We talk about the Ric Flair news, and that's an interesting conversation. Then against Tony's wishes we do a proper down the aisle, back to a random USWA card from 1995. We talk about Gorgeous George 3, Mark Curtis, Robert Gibson & Ricky Morton in solo runs, David Jericho, & more. Its the perfect Down the Aisle to end the show Remember to Rate, Review and Subscribe if you enjoy this show.…
