About Headlines, Headlocks, and Hijinks with Gringo Fantastico and Heel Turtleneck
Retired luchador and indie wrestler, Gringo Fantastico (Fantastico Disasterpiece Theatre; Troma Now!), co-host, former indie wrestler Jason Hilton, and their good pal and voice of reason, Kenny Romero, discuss weekly events in wrestling, take deep dives into past matches, and make ludicrous predictions of upcoming shows.
It's episode 143 of Headlines, Headlocks, and Hijinks and Jason Hilton, Kenny Romero, and "legendary" luchador, Gringo Fantastico (Fantastico Disasterpiece Theatre on TROMA NOW and RecCenterTV.com) are here to break it down! Somewhere between Beverly Hills and a ladder match, professional wrestling has completely lost the plot—and naturally, the guys have thoughts. This week, the crew wades through another round of questionable booking, disappearing championships, baffling creative decisions, and the increasingly strange road to Money in the Bank. There are predictions to make, grievances to air, and more than a few completely unnecessary detours through television, that new Verity movie, sports, and whatever else happens to derail the conversation. By the time it’s over, Aaron Spelling is producing WWE from beyond the grave and somehow that might actually explain a few things. Also the guys answer letters from listeners.

We love you, PAC
It's episode 142 and the guys are here with another recap from this week's RAW and before. Jason, Kenny, and Gringo pay tribute to PAC, one of the greatest wrestlers of modern times. Unfortunately, Steven Borden's proves that gravity always prevails, which inspires Gringo and Jason to give insight on their own early career ring mistakes. All Out is reviewed and discussed alongside this week's WWE Smackdown and this past Monday Night Raw on Ad-Flix. Gringo gives his unexpected opinion on Randy Orton's promo on Smackdown. Gringo goes nuclear about WWE's misuse of Big Cass and his jobbing out to people significantly smaller than him. The guys answer listener mail and discuss the current trend of commentary in wrestling.

Second City Counter-programming Sponsored by DoorDash
Hola, hip, cool Fantasticats! It's time for another episode of Headlines Headlocks and Hijinks. Episode 141 to be exact... and it's time for the Counter-Programming Wars as this Saturday AEW's All Out goes head to head with TKO's WWE's AAA's World's Collide! Not only are they going to head to head on the same night but they are taking place miles from one another in Chicago. The giant corporate and usually flaccid TKO member is going to attempt to take a swing at AEW's slowly growing member. I know that's gross, but the damn comparison is the truth! Let's see who ends up on top! (I swear when I first typed that I didn't realize I made another innuendo!). Additionally, the guys talk about the week in wrestling profiling AAA, Smackdown, and Raw, as well as make their predictions for this weekend's events. Will WWE and Door Dash overtake AEW's follow up to All-In. Who knows? I guess we'll find out and b**** about it later! Also, look for Gringo and Diana Prince on tonight's AEW Dynamite and Collision as they will be there live!
Please email us your thoughts on this weekend's events at HHandHPodcast@Proton.ME! We'll read them on the show!
Thanks for the continued support!!!
