    Wow
    Amazing just amazing
  • Ponceflower
    Boring and whiny
    After trudging through five solid minutes of commercials, the actual podcast finally started, and I was instantly dismayed, as I listened to the host whine and moan because his desired fantasy matches involving retired wrestlers aren’t happening and talk smack about women’s wrestling. I’ve got better ways to waste my time, then listen to this.

    Tried but no…
    I wish i read the reviews first. These takes are weak and sounds like he just complains a lot. He is not of fan most things. The uncle howdy review really was….wait commercial break….lame. And the countless commercial breaks. Really milking that ad money. These commercials really take me out of it.
  • Colbert 2013
    Just annoying
    The main guy does nothing but complain about literally every aspect of every show. Memphis Mark sounds half asleep and drunk during NXT shows. Then whoever the other guy is that does Smackdown reviews, all he does is talk about random stuff in his life for over half of the show that no one cares about.
  • Al_wwe
    Good in-depth takes
    Reviews and predictions are great, main complaint I see is people say the host is too negative or complains too much. Which in my opinion are good things. If you want to listen to a podcast where every decision WWE makes is a great one and the host doesn’t use complex thought go listen to the other 95% of WWE podcasts.

    Great Content + A Grade show
    Like how they have new content pretty regularly but the shows are short and the ads are plenty. Espescially the Smackdown review is always short (28 mins + adds). Raw review, Mailbag and Current state of WWE are good shows though. Do t really care for the nostalgia episodes. Good podcast that could be a lot better with some changes
  • Dan_Miller
    Just couldn’t do it
    I love that all content is covered but the host is insufferable. Constant negativity and a delivery that sounds like he literally just turns on the mic and rants. Audio quality is bad, one of the most recent episodes there was a kid screaming in the background while someone coughed a lung up throughout the show. If that’s not bad enough the ad breaks are terrible. They run multiple minutes multiple times a show and they are just slammed mid discussion with no transition. It’s just a bad production. Host also has some pretty gross opinions regarding women and masculinity. That may not be a deal breaker and the host has a right to make the content he wants but you may not want to give him an ear.

    Good recaps, could use less criticism
    This podcast is great if you like the host. I find they inject a lot of their thoughts and opinions into their recaps, which is great if you’re very much into their takes, but it’s not my cup of tea. I find them to be more of the negative side, and very subjective. In the plus side they do a great job staying up with the shows and recap all events. They’re a good source if you need a fix, but you definitely need to like their takes to really buy in.

    The Criticism Podcast
    I love listening to others views and thoughts on pro-wrestling. I love recaps of Raw and Smackdown by content creators. All that being said…this guy is the most critical, nit-picky, and overall negative podcaster I have ever listened to. He has a gripe about every single thing that is being delivered in WWE. He’s not bashing WWE, but he’s never really satisfied about anything performance/ entertainment-wise. This whole podcast is a “Really???” or “Seriously???” podcast with no praise or appreciation for what’s going on. Nothing is good enough for this creator and his podcast.
  • RobHuncho2020
    Crybaby Cody
    Thanks for speaking the truth on that soft Crybaby Cody Rhodes. The amount of special treatment he has received is ridiculous. Glad you mentioned it. I’m already bored with Cody’s gimmick about his dad. 5 stars!
  • Jabaman
    Do you have anything good to say?
    Negative commentary for the entire duration. This is what happens when you give a troll a mic. Better off going somewhere else for content.
  • rocket balboa
    Way too many Ads
    Ads every 5 mins just relax a lil
  • Gorilla biz
    Same old same old
    Gave this pod a chance a few times but it’s the same as most others. Complain about everything wwe. Every episode I’ve listened to from the main guy I hear a 10mins of Roman Reigns complaining. If you like AEW and hate WWE this is for you. But to be fair it’s just one guy, I’ve randomly listen to a smackdown episode and that guy was cool.
  • Jfgkcdjjxd
    Ads
    Love the show! But 15 out of the first 30 minutes is ads is crazy. Anyways love the actual content
  • Wrestlingfan2007
    Review
    Matt does a good job with as much as he has on his plate each week. I wish the shows did their homework more and not just assume or make stuff up. The only tough show to listen to besides having to mute the DJ guy when he comes on is the smack down show. They need to go back and listen to their show before they post it. They say “definitely” and “I guess you could say” way too much that it becomes tough to focus on the content. Otherwise, keep up the good work!
  • Skinnydoe
    I guess you can say
    What’s up with the monotone sidekick dude saying I guess you can say every 5 seconds hahahaha been listening for 15 mins already counted 15 “I guess you can say” at this point if I were to make it a drinking game and take a shot everytime he says it im getting alcohol poisoning

  • Tfc661
    Great podcast
    I like the podcast 98% of the time. But guys seriously get over the belt confusion. They aren’t really competing for these belts, you are getting way into the weeds on this and the brand draft integrity. We fully hear and understand your opinions, move on. Lastly, on what planet in Gunter not a heel?! His preening to the audience his arrogance clearly a heel. Keep up the good work.

    So happy that I found this podcast. I love how it moves along nicely, and there is a purpose to each episodes layout. I’ve been a lifelong fan of watching WWE since I went to wrestlemania three! This podcast really puts into perspective what my feelings are. I always look forward to the PPV reviews. Thank you for what you do! Amy from Tampa
  • jmelch3414
    Why so much guessing?
    I made it 15 mins into one episode before bailing. Maybe it was an off day but they seemed to have done no research. “The match was 12 minutes…no wait it was 6 minutes…I’m not sure…” “Butch pinned Vinci, I think…was it Vinci?…yes it was.” “Lacey Evans fought Becky Lynch. I think it was Becky. Don’t quote me on that.” Just surprised to hear so little facts and so much guessing.
  • Chris’smom
    Meh
    Good for finding out what happens each week. Seems like they may be Vince's cousins or wwe employees because everything is why wwe is right. Seems like company lines. On top of that, trying to push no talent boring Gunther as a star definitely seems like a push for someone several lacking.
  • brianjets
    Could be great
    Way too much negativity.
  • Rukiddingme0
    Great pod cast and very informative
    Love this show it gets me through my 3rd shift job.
  • zrdknd25
    Used to enjoy it
    Matt is great but some of the cohosts are just awful and offer nothing when it comes to describing a wrestling show. The one cohost of the smack down review literally repeated the phrase “I guess you could say” 41 times in a single episode.
  • Djskxmd
    Dumb
    These people are absolute morons!

    Best Podcast Ever!!!
    This is the best podcast I have ever listened to. I am also very excited for the new show Mr and Mrs Casual wrestling fan. You guys are great! Very excited for January 30

    “Call it like I see it”
    I want to commend the host for his approach and work on this podcast. I started listening in the past month and my fear going in was that it would be a WWE propaganda machine spouting whatever the company instructed it. But you’ve analyzed the matches, programs, overall programming strategy, etc. with authentic objectivity. I actually agreed with you that this Oct 17 Raw episode was below average and was happy to hear you challenge the quality of that episode. As long as you keep it real, call it like you see it, and provide your unbiased opinion on the programming you’ll have a listener in me. p.s. I’ll be live at the Smackdown show on Nov 18th and happy to share my in-person notes to help bolster your content for any review episode if you’re interested.

    Smh
    The host complains so much it’s kind of comical. Definitely annoying after a while as his routine rant drags on for minutes every time.I’m like sheesh, this guy is still complaining , lol. His reviews of matches are mostly him reading cbs sports review. However, the host can be entertaining at times. I skip the Thursday smack down review guy every week. He’s boring.
  • Andre Palazzolo
    For the love of everything, find a new Smackdown host.
    The dude who hosts Smackdown is literally awful and a weirdo. I can barely hear him on full volume at least get him a mic. Literally every other sentence he says the phrase ‘I guess you can say’ and once you realize that it’s unlistenable. And they way he talks about women wrestlers is extremely creepy and makes my physically cringe. I like the Raw episode but jeez find someone else it’s a bad look.
  • TheColorMike

    Terrible podcast Terrible takes on topics will no longer listen to
  • bfraz18
    Good podcast with an OK host
    The host is well informed and knowledgeable. But he is also pretty unlikeable. He does more complaining than anything, and his overall tone and attitude comes across as upset and irritated. Good podcast, but definitely could be better.
  • littlehunnies
    Ads are Unbearable
    UGH I really wanted to like this podcast!!!! They release a lot of episodes but the ads make up about 75% of the shows - they sometimes just run twice in a row which makes you feel like you’re listening to Sirius radio. I understand promoting your paid service (which is really cheap) but i don’t like to immediately pay for a service if I’m not sure that I like it first. Will probably listen occasionally around the big stuff but such a shame because the main host is really good!
  • edgar 39
    Nice
    Love the talk about everything
  • James iPhone 5
    Meh
    Just another negative wrestling podcast. After a great summer slam I gave it a shot and same old same old. I guess this is what’s popular. Not for me. I like to listen to podcast that seem like the enjoy wrestling like I do. If I hated it as much as these podcast do I just wouldn’t watch.
  • Malachi Mahaffey
    Racist Podcast
    This podcast is shameful. Constant hate on one of the only successful black women in the history of this company, Bianca Belair. They also know nothing about wrestling, I want to know who qualified these guys to talk about wrestling and share their horrible racially motivated opinions. 0 stars
  • gw4075
    What the point ?
    Could make the podcast any shorter talk about lazy. To busy playing with yourself.
  • Joseph129901
    Great podcast
    Amazing podcast! Great content ! Love the latest Raw Review with Grace! Keep up the great work
  • the_skywalking_artist
    Dated
    After listening to this podcast for over a month and a half now, I’ve formed an opinion on this show. Are there a lot of ads? Yes. Do I hear the exact same ads 3-4 times a single episode? Yes. But I understand the hustle. What irritates me, and this may just be my opinion, is that a lot of this host’s takes on the product seem very dated and like he is holding on to the past instead of embracing some newer ideas going on within the show. He seems to see things as only black and white. And to me, that’s boring. The more varied and grey things are makes for more interesting angles, wrestling, and at the end of the day, entertainment. I agree with most of his takes on certain storylines, but when it comes to the “Entertainment” part of WWE’s name, he seems a bit clueless and comes across like an old man saying “back in my day”, but he’s only 30. For me at least, there are a lot of takes on this podcast that come across as questionable or leave me wondering, “did you completely miss the point?”. I respect him for forming this podcast and I agree with SOME of his takes. But overall he comes across as someone who refuses or is unable to look at WWE as entertainment as well as wrestling. The two go hand in hand. Especially when the product tries to adhere to audiences of all ages and not just the 30-40 year olds dwelling on the past (attitude era). WWE isn’t the same as it was back in the 90’s and even the 2000’s. And it probably won’t be moving forward. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. P.S. this dude seriously needs someone else on the show who disagrees with him on a lot of things. Because he says and spews a lot of bull crap without any rebuttal or someone to counter him. There are moments where I say out loud, “wow did he really just say that?” Or “did he not see this…” and no one is there to call him out on it
  • JamesRyan87
    Stop complaining or don’t watch
    The host is the biggest crybaby. He has 10 negative things to say for every positive thing. It’s insufferable.
  • Matt K 7148
    Go elsewhere for good wrestling podcast
    Host is oblivious to things that happen and provides inaccurate reviews that are very opinionated. The show has gotten worse and worse and I don’t understand why people have voicemails played for everyone to hear and their email addresses shared with everyone in some cases. Host seems very smug but also doesn’t sound competent.
  • Treefrog52881
    Consistently rates somewhere between boring and annoying
    I’d rather listen to Enya than this. And I absolutely detest Enya.
  • I don't like nicknames for
    Overall
    Love the show love the host love the guest love the guest host all these people complaining I got two words for you
  • concerned FF fan
    PLEASE stop complaining pt.2 😂
    You acknowledged my comment. Matt, the format and structure of your podcast is GREAT but your rants make me wanna delete the WHOLE PODCAST APP. Not just unsubscribe, but DELETE THE APP . One second: “wHeReS tHe lOnG tErM sToRyTellIng” Next second: “tHaT sInGlE mOmEnt diDnT hAvE a pAyOff” But I respect the work ethic, I respect the grind, & I respect the show. Also, Pat Macafee saying “Let’s Go Brandon” was GOAT
  • Chimp gut
    It’s tolerable
    I really struggle to get through these episodes. Speaker is extremely negative. Basically complains the entire time and analyzes everything to death. Over thinks it. Very focused on heel vs face and can’t see the gray areas and then complains about it.
  • AynsMeag
    ❤️
    Love the lastest podcast with Memphis Mark!! Great episode.
  • JustinRyanPrice
    Annoying For This Reason
    I love the content but when I hear the same add play 4 times in a row 2 different times in every episode, it gets beyond annoying. Hopefully someone doing this podcast will see this as I really hope this has been an accident.

    Mailbag
    Hi this is Eliyah First time writing into the mailbag. Hey what if when John and Roman have their promo, Roman at the beginning says basically that John is the better talker but Roman would destroy him in the ring.
  • Loganmeyer23
    Time for Mimi Burris to go
    Have I ever heard someone more negative in a podcast? To put it shortly, no. A great podcast with the exception being how negative and annoying one host is
