Voices Of Wrestling Podcast Network

This week on Wrestling Omakase we're joined by a first time guest to break down NJPW's big November show, Power Struggle! Jasmine ([@bigsadboii](https://twitter.com/bigsadboii)) first introduces herself to Omakase by going a bit into her own history- both as a fan of wrestling in general and NJPW in specific. We then turn to a match-by-match breakdown of this past weekend's Power Struggle card, which also goes into a number of different tangents including one on the apparent end of the BULLET CLUB OG/Elite feud, Chris Jericho's NJPW run so far, and more. Once that's done we turn to a brief preview of the announced matches for Wrestle Kingdom 13 so far. Finally we wrap things up with your questions on a number of topics, including rebooking the title matches for WK13 (but with the same champions) and much more! It's a fun trip through the King of Sports, this week!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Jeff embraces his inner televangelist.  Also, Crown Jewel is over and it was sad.  Time to try to cram some significance into a two week slapshod build to Laundry Wars 2018 aka Survivor Series...the one time a year...etc.  You know what that means?  McMahons.  Also on RAW, a ten second build to make you care about sunglasses.  Oh and lots of Nikki Cross talk.  Please support us at http://patreon.com/shakethemropesAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This week on Wrestling Omakase it's Jake ([@oatgan](https://twitter.com/Oatgan))'s pick for winning our 2018 Champions Fantasy Draft, and he chose to have us watch a rather infamous show: FIP Everything Burns 2017! At his behest we're also joined by the hosts of the now ex-podcast Everything Evolves, Aaron Taube ([@aptaube](https://twitter.com/aptaube)) & Aaron Bentley ([@aaronlikethecar](https://twitter.com/aaronlikethecar)). Journey back to 1/8/17 and the early days of the FloSlam era of WWN, as Gabe promised a new era would begin for this long-running indie promotion. He also promised an EDGY~! new direction, which results in a LOT of cursing on this show. This show is very strange, only running about 2 hours and 15 minutes but featuring nearly as much talking as wrestling. It also features a weird mix of guys who have popped up all over the rest of WWN/the indies in general after this (Austin Theory, Fred Yehi, Sami Callahan, Jason Kincaid, etc.) and guys who have barely been seen again (T

The title is an homage to the curtain call of the #WrongBoyz, go listen to the last @Evolvepod.  Chris is sick so Jeff rides solo on a pretty solid Evolution ppv, a phoned in RAW, and the trick or treat Smackdown heading into Crown Jewel.

The Aarons say goodbye on an emotional episode of Everything Evolves. On this episode, we break down EVOLVE 114, the changes to the promotion that have come with the NXT invasion and explain our decision to walk away from our podcast. Along the way, we show love to the people who supported our show, discuss the importance of solidarity in the face of a rising fascist right and talk about EVOLVE’s track record of being less offensive than other indie wrestling promotions.

The Wrong Boyz are back to give their best stab at a preview for EVOLVE 114, a show we don’t know all that much about other than a) it seems like some WWE contracted wrestlers will be involved and b) it should be a pretty telling indicator of where EVOLVE is going from here. Honestly, it’s hard to preview a show where the big selling point is the stuff we don’t know about it, so just know we gave it our all. Thanks as always for listening to our dumb show, we love you. We also discuss WWN's Mania Weekend schedule, Joey Janela's injury, and Mustafa Ali and Chris Hero coming to EVOLVE soon.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Finally we wrap things up with your questions on a ton of DDT-related topics, including whether a full American expansion is a good idea, what karaoke song we'd sing with Shuji Ishikawa, Tokyo Joshi Pro's future, and more!
