SMACKDOWN NEEDED GUNTHER

This week finally felt like SmackDown started showing signs of life again. Not perfect. Still inconsistent. Still too long at three hours. …but parts of this show finally felt IMPORTANT again. This episode breaks down Trick Williams’ hometown star presentation, why the U.S. title scene FINALLY feels like it can be connected, Melo/Ricky/Sami/Fenix building a real ecosystem, why Gunther instantly makes SmackDown feel bigger, Cody vs Gunther contract signing chaos, Royce Keys getting elevated in the main event, Saturday Night’s Main Event updates, RAW preview discussion, and the much bigger conversation about why WWE feels completely different in the TKO era. We also dive deep into WWE feeling more corporate and less alive, the shrinking feeling of weekly television, the five-match PLE structure problem, fans spending more money for less rewarding weekly content, why long-time fans feel disconnected from the modern product, and why RAW currently feels far more stable than SmackDown. ⸻ Follow: Alexander the Great — @Froe87 ⸻ JOIN THE TTW DISCORD PLE watch-alongs.

Maintenance Television

🎙️ Maintenance Television RAW after Backlash gave us a weird episode. Not a BAD show. Actually… there was a lot of good wrestling on this show. The roster looked strong. The younger stars continue to feel more important. The IC Title division finally feels connected again. But outside of Jacob Fatu? A LOT of RAW felt like WWE was just maintaining stories instead of truly escalating them. And the second Jacob showed up… …the entire energy of the show changed. ⸻ This week on TTW: Why Jacob Fatu currently feels like the hottest thing in WWE Bron Breakker’s strange post-Backlash direction Ethan Page continuing to prove he belongs in the main-event picture Sol Ruca impressing BIG against Iyo Sky The growing concern around Oba Femi after Brock Lesnar Judgment Day quietly planting long-term story seeds Why the AAA / El Grande Americano story is becoming overbooked Asuka’s emotional backstage goodbye with Iyo Sky Why RAW felt more like “maintenance television” than momentum television ⸻ PLUS: JDfromNY / Danhausen discourse Wrestling-media echo chambers WWE’s 5-match PLE problem ⸻ 🎧 Available on: Spotify • Apple Podcasts • Amazon Music X & TikTok: @Froe87 (fro like afro… add the E… 87) 🔥 Join the TTW Discord for: PLE watch-alongs Live reactions Real wrestling discussion 🛡️ Sponsored by Zarc International Be Prepared.

Backlash Restored Confidence Heading Into A Summer Of Chaos

🔥 Backlash Restored Confidence Heading Into A Summer Of Chaos After what felt like “CommercialMania” at WrestleMania 41… Backlash finally reminded us what WWE looks like when the wrestling actually gets time to breathe. This week on Turnbuckle Talk Wrestling, we break down why Backlash may have been WWE’s BEST overall Premium Live Event of the year — and why simply letting the matches COOK instantly made the product feel bigger again. 🎙️ INSIDE THIS EPISODE: 👉 Bron Breakker vs Seth Rollins delivered a WrestleMania-level opener 👉 Trick Williams continues feeling like WWE’s next centerpiece star 👉 Danhausen chaos, AAA surprises & why the REAL issue is WWE’s 5-match cards 👉 Iyo Sky vs Asuka delivers one of the BEST women’s matches of the year 👉 Why the ending of Iyo vs Asuka felt emotional, heavy… and maybe even like goodbye 👉 John Cena’s “historic” announcement & why the voting concept feels suspicious 👉 Roman Reigns vs Jacob Fatu becomes the beginning of a BLOOD FEUD 👉 Why Jacob Fatu gave us major Umaga “Samoan Bulldozer” energy 👉 Why Backlash worked better than WrestleMania despite being the smaller show 👉 RAW preview: Roman’s acknowledgment ceremony, Oba Femi’s open challenge, Judgment Day chaos & more This wasn’t a gimmick-heavy show. This wasn’t a nostalgia show. This was WWE remembering: 👉 let wrestling breathe again. ⸻ 📲 FOLLOW / SUPPORT TTW If we earned it… leave us a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Amazon Music.

Backlash Is One Night Away ...

Backlash is one night away… …but honestly? This card still feels like it could completely change after SmackDown. ⸻ In this episode of Turnbuckle Talk Wrestling: 🔥 We break down the UPDATED Backlash card after RAW 🔥 Talk about the possibility of Gunther vs Cody being added 🔥 Give our official Backlash predictions 🔥 Open The TTW Vault for: 👉 Top 5 “This Should Have Happened at WrestleMania” Matches 👉 Top 5 “The Story Didn’t End at WrestleMania” Feuds & Rematches ⸻ Because Backlash has always been about one thing: 👉 unfinished business.

The Future Is Starting To Push Back ...

🎙️ WWE is trying to establish the future right now… …and the future is starting to push back. Bron Breakker looks like an absolute monster heading into Backlash. Oba Femi might already be TOO dominant for WWE’s own booking philosophy. The Intercontinental Championship division feels alive again. Roxanne Perez and Finn Bálor may finally be approaching the payoff WWE usually waits way too long to pull the trigger on. And somehow Logan Paul and Joe Hendry might become one of the most entertaining feuds in the company if WWE fully leans into the chaos. This week’s go-home RAW before Backlash felt focused, aggressive, and future-oriented… …but it also exposed some of the creative problems WWE may have accidentally created for themselves moving forward. We break down: • Seth Rollins vs Bron Breakker • Roman Reigns vs Jacob Fatu • Oba Femi’s growing monster problem • The IC Title division becoming WWE’s best ecosystem • Roxanne Perez / Judgment Day tension • Logan Paul & Joe Hendry • WWE fumbling the AAA / Americano feud • Sol Ruca vs Becky Lynch potentially becoming the women’s feud of the summer PLUS: 🔥 Updated Backlash card 🔥 Go-home SmackDown preview 🔥 Friday’s official Backlash predictions episode tease This isn’t a recap show. This is where we figure out what’s actually working… and what WWE may already be struggling to control.

Two Good Hours… but Loyalty Doesn’t Matter

🔥 TWO GOOD HOURS… ONE BIG PROBLEM: LOYALTY Sometimes a show gives you just enough to care… …and just enough to remind you why you’re frustrated in the first place. ⸻ This week, SmackDown actually worked—for about two hours. Things were moving. Stories had direction. It felt like the show finally understood what mattered. And then that third hour hit… …and everything fell right back into the same problems. ⸻ Meanwhile, RAW continues to feel like the show that actually knows what it is. Which makes the gap between the two brands impossible to ignore. ⸻ And then there’s the bigger story. Because while SmackDown was trying to figure itself out… WWE was quietly showing you exactly what it is now. ⸻ 👉 Departures vs “fired” — what people are getting wrong 👉 The New Day situation — and why it says everything about the current system 👉 Why loyalty in WWE doesn’t mean what it used to 👉 And what that means for the future of the roster ⸻ 🎙️ PLUS: • Cody Rhodes vs Ricky Saints — debut done right • Gunther enters the main event scene (finally) • Jacy Jayne gets the rocket push • Tag division actually showing signs of life • Solo, Fatu & The Usos — a power struggle worth watching • Danhausen ❤️ (and why people complaining don’t get wrestling) • Sami Zayn vs Trick Williams — funny… but pushing the limit ⸻ And now? Backlash is this Saturday. No more building. No more setup. 👉 It’s time to deliver. ⸻ 🎙️ If you’re a real wrestling fan who cares about: 👉 storytelling 👉 character direction 👉 and where WWE is actually going… you’re in the right place. ⸻ 📲 FOLLOW / SUPPORT THE SHOW If we earned it… leave us a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating on Apple, Spotify, or Amazon — it helps more than you think.

This Company Feels Split in Half

WWE feels like two completely different companies right now. RAW is building momentum, creating direction, and setting the stage for Backlash… while SmackDown feels disconnected, directionless, and completely out of sync. On top of that? WWE just made a wave of talent releases that raise even bigger questions about what this company actually is right now. This episode breaks down: • Why RAW feels like it’s moving forward • Why SmackDown feels completely lost • What the recent WWE releases actually mean • And why this company feels split in half heading into Backlash This is where we figure out what’s actually working… and what’s completely broken. 00:00Introduction and Overview of SmackDown After Mania 03:10The Disconnect Between Raw and SmackDown 05:25Debuts and Expectations 07:35The Quality of SmackDown 10:18NXT Call-Ups and Title Changes 13:01Releases and Their Impact 15:46The Future of SmackDown 18:23Analyzing Recent Releases 20:36Triple H's Role and Future 23:30Monday Night Raw Review 26:08Roman Reigns and the Usos 28:43Seth Rollins and Braun Breaker 39:24Promo Exchanges and Character Development 42:32Backlash Match Predictions 44:13Intercontinental Championship Dynamics 51:28Becky Lynch's Title Reign and Open Challenge 55:14Asuka vs. Io Sky Feud 58:38Women's Division Challenges and Opportunities 01:03:00LA Knight and Bloodline Dynamics 01:04:42Joe Hendry's Concert and Logan Paul's Response 01:06:27Logan Paul's Chaos and the Street Profits' Intervention 01:08:42The Future of Hendry and the SmackDown vs. Raw Debate 01:11:22Rey Mysterio vs. El Grande Americano: A Lucha Libre Showcase 01:15:27Oba Femi's Open Challenge: A Double-Edged Sword 01:32:00Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu: A Tense Confrontation 01:37:34The Aftermath: Setting the Stage for Backlash 01:39:48Character Dynamics in Wrestling 01:41:22Future Feuds and Storylines 01:43:55The State of SmackDown 01:49:13MVPs and Highlights of Recent Shows 01:55:46The Impact of the Bloodline Storyline

Back to Basics

RAW AFTER WRESTLEMANIA didn’t give us the big surprise returns… …but it gave us something way more important. 👉 direction. ⸻ Oba Femi didn’t celebrate… he arrived. CM Punk delivered one of the most real promos we’ve seen in a long time… and Cody Rhodes stepped into it with a completely different energy. The Intercontinental scene didn’t reset — it continued, and that matters. Sol Ruca didn’t feel like a call-up… she felt like she belongs. Brock Lesnar? That didn’t feel like a send-off. That felt like the end. ⸻ And by the end of the night… you could actually see the board being set. Rollins vs Breakker. Roman vs Jacob. The Vision vs The Street Profits. ⸻ 👉 Backlash is already starting to take shape… …and it might be a banger show. ⸻ 🎧 Follow the show on Apple, Spotify & Amazon Music ⭐ If we earned it… leave us a 5-star rating ⸻ 👉 Follow me — Alexander the Great — @Froe87 on X & TikTok 🔥 Join the TTW Discord • Live PLE watch-alongs • Real-time reactions • Unfiltered wrestling debates Chapters 00:00Welcome to Season Three of TTW 01:56OBA's Impact and the Raw After Mania 04:21Women's Tag Team Action: Rhea Ripley and Io Sky 07:39Backstage Segments and Future Directions 09:23Ethan Page's Debut and IC Title Scene 13:18CM Punk and Cody Rhodes: A Contrasting Promo 22:56Ego vs. Javon Evans: Building on WrestleMania Feuds 24:49Danhausen's Hilarious Merchandise Segment 27:04WWE Hall of Fame and Character Dynamics 28:19Liv Morgan's Title Celebration and Sol Ruka's Debut 31:54Brock Lesnar: The End of an Era 35:12Brock Lesnar's Retirement Controversy 44:13Paul Heyman and the Future of Gunther 45:34Seth Rollins vs. Bron Breaker: Setting the Stage 50:57Finn Balor vs. JD McDonough: A Personal Rivalry 52:14WrestleMania Aftermath: Match Reflections 53:20Gunther's Direction: A Lack of Clarity 55:48Raw After Mania: A Purposeful Reset 59:47The Bloodline Saga: New Dynamics and Challenges 01:02:29Roster Changes: New Faces and Future Directions 01:15:06Looking Ahead: Backlash and Future Storylines
