What we thought might be a short episode actually wasn't at all. We talk quite a bit about John Cena and a pretty great episode of AEW Dynamite. Patrick makes a prediction about Willow Nightingale and wonders what has gone wrong with Wardlow. Also, we discuss the hot topic from Dax Harwood's new podcast - you guessed it, CM PUNK.

On the podcast this week, we recap an absolute BANGER of an episode of AEW Dynamite. CM Punk got the absolute shit beat out of him by Jon Moxley to lose the AEW World Title.

Also, we recap the match between Dax Harwood and Jay Lethal as well as Death Triangle vs United Empire and more. Give it a listen and share with your friends!

This was a rollercoaster of an episode. The first 40 minutes were solid, containing an opening promo between Chris Jericho, Daniel Garcia, and Bryan Danielson. It was followed by one of best all around wrestling matches in recent history, as Jay Lethal took on Dax Harwood. The rest of the night took a steep, downward plunge until the main event, where United Kingdom took on Death Triangle in the Trios Tournament. Tune in for all this and more on The Tap!
