Tunnel Talk

Dynamite came to us live this week from the art scene of St. Pete Clearwater Florida, and everyone dressed down for Kenny Day! We discuss our champ’s big win, the return of Gabe Kidd, Mick Foley’s Dead Dog Shoes, Thekla’s joyful terrorism of the commentary table, and The Old Man Boyslap Sand Fight. Come, put a layer of clothes on and join us!

Thank GOD we're out of Forbidden Door season because Tony Khan showed back up ready to Reagan! And Kenny Omega? We saw him on TV more this week than we have in years! He had a big emotional journey, from telling Will Ospreay that he loves him to deciding whether to wager it all on The Hangman Stipulation for a title shot next week, while his doting Young Bucks tried not to fight about what he should do. This storyline is as tight a...

Forbidden Door Season swings to a close, and Kyle O'Reilly is LOCKING it behind him. We cover all the goings-on with the newly formed DCMJF family and the Conglomeration, and Swerve and Ospreay's sexy stare-offs. We finally admit there might be some issues in the sexy Death Riders training story, and extensively laud what Mercedes, Athena, and Maya World are up to. Plus, the Dogs are covered in peanut butter, Ciampa marries Jeric...

We’re still deep in Forbidden Door season, but thank God TK didn’t leave us in the doldrums of last week and we DO seem to be building some storylines again! Kenny showed up to work and revealed his plan to get back on top: fighting Zack Sabre Jr…? Huh. Love to see you though, Ken! Thekla’s the only one absolutely killing it with a Forbidden Door storyline, but she’s working hard enough for ten men an...

It's Forbidden Door season and you know what that means: they are NOT our favorite episodes of Dynamite. Tony's really gathered up some dregs for storylines, and is Zack Sabre Jr the only guy left at NJPW? But at least Mox is still hamming his heart out, Will Ospreay is the most hapless little doof on Earth, and Mercedes is back! Plus, Ciampa and Jericho: is the way they see each other the most romantic way anyone can? All this and...

It's a sleepy little float down a lazy river at AEW this week, but you KNOW your girls make their own fun. First, we check in on the Men's Title Scene which Mark Briscoe is part of now. Sure! Kevin Knight and Speedball had their Divorce Match which sort of underwhelmed us, but don't worry, we had some great ideas for how they could spice it up. Plus, Tony got scared of how mad we were last week and brought Mercedes back! And not ...

It’s our post-Double or Nothing episode and you’ll never BELIEVE the quality of the opinions you’ll hear from us: that’s right, they’re bad. Think of someone with good taste, someone the IWC would like and respect, and then reverse those opinions! We’re pervert perverts, not moves perverts, and we WON’T apologize. Anyway, we take you through what we loved, what we hated, what we snoozed to ...

We’re back and we’ve got Double or Nothing Senioritis baybee! We learn some new pertinent facts about Darby’s corporate BDSM contract with Tony, Chantilly Lace Thighs Kylo Reilly has got Mox’s number, Cope finally gives the girls what they want, and Jericho should become a lighthouse keeper. Also we saw Swerve’s butt. Hey everyone? Gratitude moment.

It was a somewhat boring week in AEW, but don't you worry, we found things to discuss! There's Darby's title reign (which rules) and his beautiful insistence on MJF offering up his hair plugs as collateral for a title shot. We popped 30 boners over Moxley's seduction of Will Ospreay (that's right: ten each), and after horning out for awhile you can hear us painfully, carefully try to imagine what the storyline looks like for those ...

Big Anne was taken of commission this week, and so Friend of the Pod Mike Meginnis stepped in to save the day! There was a lot to cover this week--Darby came down from the sky like the itsy-bitsy spider, Shida's causing trouble, The Tag Team Street Fight Retirement I Quit Match is insanely overegged, and Mox and Ospreay were getting into stufff so demented we needed new vocabulary. Did we lose our minds a little? OK, how you kno...

Tony Khan didn’t Reagan this week, but we tried to keep our spirits up anyway, even if we HAVE tipped over the “Too Many Old Men” threshold. At least quite a few people stood or posed weirdly, we got to discuss who’s a good bottom (normal wrestling term), and got to view the Death Riders spiriting Will Ospreay away to their dungeon! Plus, how many Dogs are there? We’re down a dog!

This week's Dynamite was Tunnel Talk's PERFECT episode. We saw so many perfectly absurd things, we were on the moon! From Darby's breathless sobbing promo to Kenny's Big Soliloquy to Thekla's dirtbag catcalling Renee, it was an episode meant for us! Plus Jericho's pants are bigger than the whole sky, Takeshtakada are having a blast clowning, and FTR sucks wind. What a week!

Are you ready for another Tunnel Talk episode that will be jossed mere hours after it comes out by another one of Tony Khan’s PPVs? Well, have I got the episode for you! We talk everything important in AEW running up to the show: Moxley giving us the thesis statement of a PPV about identity and self-determination; Will Ospreay’s friends who go to another school; MJF’s title reign overall and of course the State of...

Chris Jericho is back and we REALLY needed that. Welcome home Big J! Plus Kenny and MJF had their big showdown and it was...weird, cadencewise. And DON'T talk to us about jingoism. Darby's trying to catch sight of the face of God, apparently and Mox is being beautifully condescending to Will Opsreay who just can't get it together. And Thekla? She's a lunatic. Join us!

It's the moment everyone's all been waiting for — that's right, it's the finals of the B2 BEST BODIES TOURNAMENT! But first, your girls go through the week in AEW, from MJF's cartooning to Kenny Omega's cartooning in response, from Will Ospreay's attempt at parenting Jon Moxley to Moxley's far superior attempt at parenting Ospreay. Plus, ChrisnChristian are at it again, Darby makes his case for being the most dangerous man at...

It's Tunnel Talk's fifth anniversary! Can you believe we've been doing this for five years? Neither can we! With our wrestling themed cocktails in hand, we tackle Revolution and the events afterwards. Ospreay's back! Cope and Christian only have eyes for the Young Bucks! Gabe Kidd got flipped in a car! And the time of night the main event started caused the girls to have seething resentment towards Hangman and MJF. We were way over...

It’s the week before Revolution, and we honestly went on a storyline cleanup tear—the most fun a girl can have with her clothes on. We talk through Hangman and MJF and the world title, why their press conference didn’t really work and how they could’ve done it better. We ALSO had a couple of nonsensical turns this week, with typical wrestler-pretending-for-nobody work, but don’t worry, Roddy and Ciampa...

Great energy in this one as the girls twirl and trip through this week in wrestling! Kevin Knight teaches us a little something about charm, and we think MJF is falling for it! Tommasso Ciampa does NOT like FTR and neither does our new favorite youtuber who satisfyingly annihilated them! Hook is absolutely in charge of the Opps, and he's backstage playing Killer, Killer, Killer? A hot new game! And we have a new man, and we're spli...

AEW hit a lot of semi-nonsensical but mostly enjoyable beats this week, with Hangman and MJF’s weird stipulation negotiations, Swerve justifying his heel turn, and Thunder Rosa and Kris Statlander continuing their weird ?? friendship question mark?? Though we might have cracked that one open with a beautiful little cloud story. And then… it’s March, and you know what that means! That’s right, it’s the...
