With TNA Slammiversary this weekend, Chicago guy and TNA color commentator Matthew Rehwoldt returned to the show for the first time in nearly five years to discuss the big event, including the three-way main event between Trick Williams, Joe Hendry and Mike Santana for the TNA World Championship. We discuss the Slammiversary card, the current state of TNA, TNA’s working agreement with NXT, Mustafa Ali’s storytelling, Leon Slater’s rise, Mike Santana’s breakout as a singles star, Matt’s hilarious Wikipedia story, occasional independent appearances, working with Tom Hannifan and more. Plus, Mike reviews a huge weekend of WWE, AEW, NXT and ROH shows and takes a trip around the local scene with news from DREAMWAVE Wrestling, ARW Pro, POWW Entertainment, Chicago Style Wrestling, Freelance Wrestling and Iron Spirit Pro.
Mike Pankow is a 25-year-plus professional journalist and wrestling superfan who covers local Chicagoland wrestling and national promotions like AEW and WWE. If there is something going on in Chicago, Mike knows about it. Enjoy "Wrestling, Chicago-Style" on The Broadcast Basement On-Demand
