Alabama Slam Podcast

In this supersized episode, we recap AEW Revolution, this week in WWE, and the HOSS Tournament from New South Pro Wrestling in Alabama. 

This week on the show, we recap WWE Elimination Chamber. Patrick perks up when he thinks that we might finally get an explanation about why Cody initially gave up his Wrestlemania spot to the Rock. 

We also run down the upcoming AEW Revolution card and give our predictions about the outcomes of each match. And Patrick is super hyped about the official debut of Will Ospreay. 

We're only a few hours away from Elimination Chamber in WWE, so we spend some time recapping the last week in these storylines and give our predictions of the outcome of the upcoming Elimination Chamber matches. 

In the AEW world, we have some thoughts on the last 2 episodes of Dynamite because Collision had the week off. We're only a week or so away from Revolution and that card is shaping up nicely. 

This week on the show, Stephen had the AUDACITY to bring up a storyline that would extend Cody's story well after Wrestlemania. Corey and Patrick said that if this happens, they'll shut the podcast down. What was that idea? Well, you'll have to listen to find out. 

We talked at length about the Cody/Rock/Roman stuff as well as Jey Uso vs Gunther. Does Jey have a shot?

R-Truth thinks he's in DX now. 

Swerve Strickland and Hangman Page put on another banger and Stephen is still mad about AEW rankings and how they work (on don't work, really).

Sting and Darby Allin are the new AEW tag champions, but for how long?

All that and more this week on the podcast. 

This is possibly the most fun I've had recording this podcast. Patrick was FIRED UP about the Cody/Rock/Reigns situation. We spent a good deal of time on that before discussing Baylee/Damage CTRL, and Drew McIntyre. 

As far as AEW goes, Collision had a pretty good show on Saturday. Eddie Kingston, Bryan Danielson, FTR, The Patriarchy and more are discussed.

On this week's show, Patrick and Stephen hold it down while Corey cruises the Gulf of Mexico. You'll hear their thoughts on all things Royal Rumble, as well as the rise of the ultimate player hater Drew McIntyre and CM Punk gets hurt...again. 

Is Orange Cassidy dying his beard?

Is Swerve becoming a vampire?

Why did they push Hook so hard against Samoa Joe?

RKO Fest!

Pipebombs and American Dreams. 

All of this and more this week on the podcast. 

This week features discussion of the upcoming match between Hook and Samoa Joe, the big reveal of who will battle Sting in his final match, and the return of Jack Perry.

Once again, we praise Gunther for the run that he's had in the last year and touch on the upcoming Royal Rumble for just a bit. 

This week on the show, we discuss the decline of AEW Collision in recent weeks and what is wrong with it. What can they do to improve it?

Corey has some issues with WWE commercial breaks, we show some love for R Truth, and a segment on the fact that Damien Priest still has no idea what he's doing with the MITB briefcase. 

We're back after a week off to recap the AEW World's End PPV from last weekend. Was it a lackluster showing for AEW? They usually knock the PPVs out of the park but this one felt off. 

And we hit a couple of key points in WWE news as well, including the return of The Rock. 

In this episode, we spend some time discussing who we would cut from the AEW roster and why we would cut them. 

And we spend some more time on the Continental Classic. 

In the world of WWE, topics include the return of AJ Styles, R-Truth and Judgment Day, Gunther vs Miz, Randy Orton and more. 

In this supersized episode of the podcast, we cover a LOT of ground. 

In WWE, we talk about the poor booking of Iyo Sky, what's going on with Montez Ford, Logan Paul vs KO, Judgment Day and R-Truth, and a lot more. 

In AEW, we discuss most of the Continental Classic matches, why the AEW promos are better than WWE promos, more about MJF and the Devil storyline and much more. 

This week on the podcast, we give our opinions on a pretty lackluster Survivor Series, the return of Randy Orton AND CM Punk and what's in store for them moving forward. 

In the world of AEW, we spent a bit of time discussing how they are approaching the Continental Classic and more. 

After getting stuck in Nashville traffic last night, Patrick recorded a quick show in his car this morning so this is being released as "Patrick's Version" of our Full Gear Recap. 

Patrick was stuck in Nashville traffic when we recorded, so this episode is only Corey and Stephen.

We spent the first half of the show running through a number of WWE topics - including Damage Control, Brawling Brutes, Becky Lynch, LA Knight, The Miz, Gunther, and more. And we also did a quick preview of the card for the upcoming Survivor Series.

Most of the AEW portion of the show was spent on the Full Gear recap. 

Hey! We have a third chair at the table now! Y'all welcome in Stephen Efird as the third co-host of our podcast. 

WWE topics for the week include Charlotte Flair, Kevin Owens' lack of a tie, the turn of Escobar, Cedric Alexander vs Dragon Lee, and more.

We also spent some time talking about AEW Collision. Topics include the Hangman Promo, Preston Vance's lack of attitude, No Neck November, and much more. 

And Corey gave a brief recap of some of the happenings from the New South event, "The Saga Continues". 

On the podcast this week, spend the first half of the show recapping Crown Jewel and some exciting events from Monday Night Raw.

During the second half, we talk about a fun episode of AEW Dynamite and do some speculating on who is behind the devil mask in the backstage segments from the last few weeks.

AND, we have a surprise announcement at the end of the show!

We're finally back after a few weeks off! Sometimes, work and life stuff just gets in the way. 

But we're back on track and took some time to run through our favorite recent AEW happenings and previewed the upcoming Crown Jewel event this coming weekend. 

We spend quite a bit of time at the beginning of this episode trying to figure out what AEW can do to get butts in seats for their Saturday night Collision shows.

Then we give a recap of what we thought was a mediocre PLE in Fast Lane 2023. There were a couple of good matches, but most of the show felt sort of flat. 

Then we touched on the AEW Tag Team titles changing hands and the on-going brilliance of Toni Storm's new character. 

We're a little AEW-heavy this week but that's because there was so much good stuff to talk about. WrestleDream, Adam Copeland, and much more are featured in this episode.

And yes, we did spend some time talking about the upcoming Fast Lane PPV as well as Gunther, Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso, Finn Balor, Damien Priest, and more.
