Two mates going back through the wrestling shows that shaped us, and a few that probably shouldn't have existed.
Each episode we break down the card, argue about what worked, and try to figure out why wrestling is the way it is. Jack pulls apart the worst booked segment of the night and rebooks it properly, Sam casts her eye over the gear to crown the best and worst dressed, and we'll throw in the odd backstage nugget along the way.

It's Royal Rumble 2015! We’re in Philadelphia, ECW’s home city, with a crowd who turned up with very clear opinions. Brock Lesnar defends his WWE title against John Cena and Seth Rollins, there's some real mid tag team matches, and then a thirty-man Royal Rumble built around Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan - wonder how that goes! Plus, Bubba Ray Dudley returns! Yay? Jack rebooks the whole f'in Rumble match through to WrestleMania and beyond, and Sam awards her best and worst dressed of the night.
