This week's Dynamite was Tunnel Talk's PERFECT episode. We saw so many perfectly absurd things, we were on the moon! From Darby's breathless sobbing promo to Kenny's Big Soliloquy to Thekla's dirtbag catcalling Renee, it was an episode meant for us! Plus Jericho's pants are bigger than the whole sky, Takeshtakada are having a blast clowning, and FTR sucks wind. What a week!

Are you ready for another Tunnel Talk episode that will be jossed mere hours after it comes out by another one of Tony Khan’s PPVs? Well, have I got the episode for you! We talk everything important in AEW running up to the show: Moxley giving us the thesis statement of a PPV about identity and self-determination; Will Ospreay’s friends who go to another school; MJF’s title reign overall and of course the State of Kenny’s Tummy. Plus, Thekla says the most evilly horny things to Lexy Nair that we’ve ever heard, our beautiful blue-eyed boy Chris Jericho is gonna have a fun feud with Ricochet, and Darby discovers interiority!  (00:00) Chitchat Time (13:23) Death Riders and Will Ospreay (34:40) MJF and Kenny Omega (58:07) Women’s Division (1:05:00) Chris Jericho and Ricochet (1:19:33) FTR and Cope and Christian (1:29:41) Don Callis Family Mega Segment Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/tunnel-talk/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Chris Jericho is back and we REALLY needed that. Welcome home Big J! Plus Kenny and MJF had their big showdown and it was...weird, cadencewise. And DON'T talk to us about jingoism. Darby's trying to catch sight of the face of God, apparently and Mox is being beautifully condescending to Will Opsreay who just can't get it together. And Thekla? She's a lunatic. Join us!

It's the moment everyone's all been waiting for — that's right, it's the finals of the B2 BEST BODIES TOURNAMENT! But first, your girls go through the week in AEW, from MJF's cartooning to Kenny Omega's cartooning in response, from Will Ospreay's attempt at parenting Jon Moxley to Moxley's far superior attempt at parenting Ospreay. Plus, ChrisnChristian are at it again, Darby makes his case for being the most dangerous man at AEW (because he IS a danger to himself), Lio Rush has a new gimmick and is Roddy gonna turn on OC??? All this and more this week on Tunnel Talk!

It's Tunnel Talk's fifth anniversary! Can you believe we've been doing this for five years? Neither can we! With our wrestling themed cocktails in hand, we tackle Revolution and the events afterwards. Ospreay's back! Cope and Christian only have eyes for the Young Bucks! Gabe Kidd got flipped in a car! And the time of night the main event started caused the girls to have seething resentment towards Hangman and MJF. We were way over time before we even got to Week 4 of the B2 where there was a SHOCKING upset! Join us! Watch the B2 Slideshow on Youtube! Check out the slides in PDF!

It’s the week before Revolution, and we honestly went on a storyline cleanup tear—the most fun a girl can have with her clothes on. We talk through Hangman and MJF and the world title, why their press conference didn’t really work and how they could’ve done it better. We ALSO had a couple of nonsensical turns this week, with typical wrestler-pretending-for-nobody work, but don’t worry, Roddy and Ciampa, we figured out how everything you’re doing makes perfect sense. We also talk through the interpersonal dynamics of THE DOGS, whether Willow is signaling a heel turn, and whether Swerve can throw a wrench in the robust emotional health of JetSpeed. And then it’s week 3 of the Best Bodies Tournament! Tune in for results!

Great energy in this one as the girls twirl and trip through this week in wrestling! Kevin Knight teaches us a little something about charm, and we think MJF is falling for it! Tommasso Ciampa does NOT like FTR and neither does our new favorite youtuber who satisfyingly annihilated them! Hook is absolutely in charge of the Opps, and he's backstage playing Killer, Killer, Killer? A hot new game! And we have a new man, and we're split on whether to like them! PLUS it's week two of the B2, and we're thrown into a few crises! Too many riches for these girls! Follow Along with the B2 on youtube! Or by PDF!

AEW hit a lot of semi-nonsensical but mostly enjoyable beats this week, with Hangman and MJF’s weird stipulation negotiations, Swerve justifying his heel turn, and Thunder Rosa and Kris Statlander continuing their weird ?? friendship question mark?? Though we might have cracked that one open with a beautiful little cloud story. And then… it’s March, and you know what that means! That’s right, it’s the inaugural week of the 2026 Best Bodies (B2) tournament! This year it’s a round robin between the top 12 bodies nominated by listeners, and BOY did we have an upset right out of the gate! Who was it? You’ll have to listen to find out!

Your girls got TRICKED into watching Grand Slam, a show where nothing actually happened, but that's okay. We're off the wall about it anyway! We discuss Hangman's similarities (or not) to MJF, Swerve's bad boy adventures, FTR aka Drip and Dribble's resentment of the beloved Young Bucks, and Yuta's Big Haircut. Plus, Hook's the head of domestic recruitment for the Opps now, and we COULDN'T be happier. Help us build our bracket for our annual March Madness Best Bodies Tournament!

The girls are back in town! That’s right, FINALLY all three Tunnel Talkettes are reunited and it feels sooooo good. Let’s get this car OFF the rails already! And it was a crazy week, with multiple unexpected title changes for us to work through. We get back in the swing of things with a discussion of the men’s world title scene* and how Kenny and Swerve are going about their feud. From that big new matchup, we go into a matchup we’ve seen many, many times before, FTR and the Young Bucks. Also, Thekla’s the new Women’s World Champion, to everyone’s surprise, and we talk through that and how the women’s division is treated generally. Plus, Jon Moxley called Wheeler Yuta “naturally beautiful,” Allie has as much trouble working through how to process Tommaso Ciampa’s existence as the rest of us did, and of course ham comes up at least a little. JOIN US in welcoming Allie back!!! *not featuring the men’s world title holder P.S. Please nominate some sexy men’s bodies for our March Best Bodies Tournament!!!!

Listeners, as of recording, Allie was still stranded on the East Coast, so Anne and Lea bravely carried on, serving as two legs of a stool, barely balanced on a hope and a dream. Hell yeah! Mister New Man Ciampa has a belt now thanks to the support of the fans. What fans? The ones who watched NXT, I guess. Darby’s experiencing exquisite agonies at the hands of our newest NJPW pals who may or may not go here. He may be erotically satisfied but we’re not entirely sure we are. Thank God Andrade, Kenny, Swerve and Hangman continue to circle each other—it’s a real seething emotional stew and we’re RIVETED. Plus, the F**k ICE chants ruled, Orange Cassidy would look terrible bald, and Las Vegas, we loved your reaction to seeing the Bucks!

Allie’s still in exile, but Lea and Anne have intrepidly brought the podcast back anyway, and frankly we should all applaud their bravery in these difficult times! We brought on our friend Mike for a catchup/amnesty episode to bring us up to speed on all the AEW fun that we’ve missed, from Jon Moxley’s Grindset Influencing to the pleasures of watching two big men cheerfully yell. That’s right, we invited some mansplaining and we loved every single second of it! It was thrilling to hear about Swerve and Hangman’s psychosexual escapades with Kenny and with Jetspeed, to commiserate about the dark boring slide into mediocrity that is MJF these days, and to discover that Orange Cassidy has zero sexual chemistry with Toni and/or Mina. Absolutely delightful. Enjoy, and please send all your good thoughts to Allie’s car — we’re hoping to all be reunited next week but we are going to need the strongest of good vibes from all our listeners!  (00:00) Chitchat Time and Mike intro (18:22) Deathriders and Don Callis Family (36:42) Jetspeed (42:57) Swerve and Kenny and Hangman (55:25) MJF (1:05:57) Young Bucks (1:11:38) Jamie Hayter, Kris Statlander, Willow, Mercedes (1:27:42) OC, Toni and Mina (1:32:11) New Men Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/tunnel-talk/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

It’s our final podcast of 2025! And what a way to go out. We do a deep dive into MJF’s return and his returning promo, which we did not find to be successful. Then we get into the Connie and all the men’s emotions in their pretty good post-match promos! The Elite and the DCF also had a very fun match and we talk about how we’ll all get old someday, so that’s pretty normal and cool. And finally, we finish the year with a holiday edition of the dating game, for our deep winter imagines. Join us!

It's our penultimate episode before Christmas break, and the girls show up tipsy and distractable. After an extra-long chitchat section, we finally get down to business and dig into Swerve and Hangman's sexy new partnership and the eternal cockblock that is Josh Alexander. Plus the Women's Tag Team tournament finally crowned their winners and we were NOT expecting the result! Then it's Connie Season and there's some real highlights to cover and perhaps some room for improvement as well. Don't worry, the girls have some ideas that could help! Also, The Elite are back together to defeat the Ham Men and the girls are starting a movement called Let Roddy Speak! It's spreading across the nation!

We’re back from Thanksgiving break and frankly? We had a lot pent up that we needed to get out! From accidentally implying new kinks that make everyone uncomfortable to an expansion of our rich ham-based world, we go into hysterics for many, many very stupid reasons. In between, we talk through a weird, slightly-off episode of Dynamite, make up a few rumors we’re hoping make their way back to Dave Meltzer, and are ready to be enchanted by our Third Connie!
