The Impromptu Wrestling Podcast

Hey guys, Great episode this week. We take a look back at Summer Slam weekend in a special edition Scoop of Vanilla. The Commentary Desk talks about Chris Jericho's potential retirement from the ring, and a rant on Twitter marks losing faith in AEW booking only days after praising them. Our Match of the Week was the Tag Team Eliminator Finals between Jurassic Express and the Lucha Bros. We also had 11 more items for Puttin' it Over and a new segment that will return at the end of every month, Thank You Notes. Yes, we ripped off the Tonight Show, and no we are not trying to hide it. Enjoy the show, everyone.

This week's episode of IWP will go down, for our personal history, as the episode it all changed. Not only are we introducing a new format for the show in which, we hope will provide a better listening experience for you the audience. But, It will forever be remembered as the episode we talked about...The Return. For those who don't know, I (Towelie006) have been a lifelong wrestling fan and honestly, it was hard to watch wrestling in the mid 2000s. WCW was gone. ROH was not easily available to us in Canada. TNA had its moments, but low production value and poor writing made it hard to connect with the stories they were trying to tell. As for the WWE at the time, the shift into the PG Era left a sour taste in my mouth, much like every other of the 6+ million wrestling fans who tuned in every Monday night during the Attitude Era. It was a tough time to be a wrestling fan. But, there was one wrestler who kept me engaged in it all. An alternative to the muscle-bound behemoths I wa...

Coming to you a few hours late this week, as last night was the debut episode of AEW: Rampage! It was an amazing show with one of the most shocking moments in AEW's short history. We of course cover Wednesday night Dynamite as well. Another action packed show. The build up heading into All Out in a few weeks has been amazing and here at IWP, we are super excited for what is to come in the next few weeks. We are changing up the format of the show going forward. We are looking to amp up the pace and cut the show's run time in half. So be sure you are subscribed, so you don't miss the new and improved, Impromptu Wrestling Podcast. Enjoy the show.

This week was not AEW's best work. Homecoming was meant to be a thank you note for the Jacksonville faithful. The show featured the return of WCW and Lucha legend Juventud Guerrera taking on Chris Jericho in the 3rd labor of Jericho. The main event saw the in ring debut of Malakai Black as he took on Cody Rhodes. Besides these two matches the rest of the show failed to live up to the calibre we've gotten used to this summer.  Awkward story progression and weak performances in segments really stalled out most of the storylines featured on this episode. We also take a look at a couple recent releases from the vanilla brand and the potential of one of the hottest free agents soon to be available after this month's Summer Slam weekend. All this and more, this week, on IWP. Enjoy the show!
