Chaos erupted across the WWE Universe over the weekend, with three major title changes. Sami Zayn reclaimed the WWE Championship from CM Punk, Stephanie Vaquer defeated Liv Morgan and literally took home the Women’s World Championship in her native country Chile, and El Grande Americano defeated “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio for the AAA Mega Championship. We break it all down, including how Sami will have hell to pay as he faces a slew of challengers in singles competition—and possibly two multi-man showdowns at “Money in the Bank” and/or “Survivor Series.” Vaquer doesn’t have nearly as many credible threats waiting for her. However, we know Liv wants a rematch, while Becky Lynch is hungry to reclaim the spotlight. Meanwhile, now that Dom is without gold, we’ll reveal which titleholder he should absolutely target. All that, plus how Damian Priest’s heel turn could provide a much-needed spark for his career—and why Roman Reigns is in jeopardy of shockingly losing his belt to Penta.

It’s a new day in AEW. With legendary superstars Kofi and Awesome Austin Creed coming to the company, the tandem represents two of the most important free-agent signings in AEW history. Not only will they bolster the world’s greatest tag-team division, but their mainstream star power will also help AEW attract new fans around the globe. Will Ospreay finally fulfilled the prophecy. The entire wrestling world knew he was a future AEW World Champion and cornerstone of the company, but after defeating Kenny Omega, his time is now. Still, Omega made Ospreay earn every inch of that victory and reminded everyone that The Best Bout Machine remains one of the greatest wrestlers alive. We also examine Mercedes Moné’s victory over Willow Nightingale, what comes next for The CEO and why Willow’s heart, toughness and connection with the fans make her one of AEW’s true gems. Plus, we break down the biggest matches, wildest moments and major fallout from “All In” as we take an honest look at the current state—and exciting future—of AEW.

AEW’s biggest show of the year is bound to deliver the biggest surprises and free-agent acquisitions. With rumors circulating that The New Day’s Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods have signed with AEW and will debut at “All In,” we dive into the beloved duo’s less-than-harmonious departure from WWE, the major impact they could have on AEW, and the tag teams and singles competitors we want to see them face. The World Heavyweight Championship Match features arguably the two best wrestlers on the planet: Will Ospreay and titleholder Kenny Omega. We break down the journey that brought the two stars to this monumental match, why Omega had to dig into his heelish bag to survive, and what a potential victory for Ospreay in London would mean for the hometown hero. Plus, we unanimously predict the winner of Mercedes Moné vs. Willow Nightingale for the Women’s World Heavyweight Championship, but we’re divided when it comes to Kyle Fletcher vs. Konosuke Takeshita and Kazuchika Okada for the AEW International Title, as well as Kevin Knight vs. Darby Allin for the AEW TNT Title. The complete match-by-match breakdown is here now.

Wembley Stadium is calling! 🇬🇧🔥 On this episode of Rap On Wrestling Podcast, E-Will & DIP break down AEW All In London 2026 and giving our official predictions for one of AEW’s biggest events of the year! Kenny Omega vs. Will Ospreay — Who walks out of Wembley as AEW World Champion? Willow Nightingale vs. Mercedes Moné — Does Willow retain, or is Mercedes taking the title? Kyle Fletcher vs. Konosuke Takeshita vs. Kazuchika Okada — Who leaves London with the AEW International Championship? The Young Bucks vs. Adam Copeland & Christian Cage — Can the Bucks capture the tag team titles? Plus, we’re talking about the Casino Gauntlet, Continental Cup, TNT Championship, Trios Championship, potential surprises, possible debuts, and the moments we think could steal the show!

Make no mistake about it: “Raw” revolves around The Bloodline. The family was poised to be the most unstoppable force in wrestling, with Solo Sikoa rejoining the fold. But the little cousin to Roman Reigns and younger brother to The Usos cannot be sonned. Solo and the fans love where he’s at, and we break down Solo’s undeniable breakout as a top face. But The Tribal Chief may have another Ace up his sleeve.  Zilla Fatu in now in the WWE, on NXT.  It’s just a matter of time before we see him in the main roster and his allegiance is revealed.  We give our take on the impact he’ll make and why he’s such a great free agent addition.  On “SmackDown,” the main event and midcard scenes are both stacked, with the majority of the roster healthy and active. Still, with all the competition, there is no more combustible feud than the one between Champion CM Punk and number one contender Kevin Owens. Hear our predictions for that impending matchup, as well as which luchador will win the AAA tournament on “Raw” and challenge Roman Reigns in September. All that and more, here and now.

Madison Square Garden was rocking as WWE returned to one of its most iconic venues, and the crossover between sports and sports entertainment took center stage. New York Knicks stars Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson got involved in memorable moments, with KAT stepping in to help Danhausen while Brunson found himself between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins during one of the show’s most intense confrontations. We break down what those appearances meant, whether they elevated the event, and how celebrity involvement continues to shape WWE’s biggest shows. The fallout carried over to “Monday Night Raw,” where one question continues to loom over WWE: Where does Solo Sikoa truly stand? After turning against The Bloodline and finding himself aligned with Seth Rollins against Roman Reigns, is Solo committed to finishing what he started, or is it only a matter of time before he returns home? We examine the next chapter in one of WWE’s most compelling family sagas and what it could mean for the balance of power heading into “SummerSlam.” With “SummerSlam” around the corner, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Can SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis shock the world against the seemingly unstoppable Gunther, or is “The Ring General” simply too dominant? We’ll also discuss whether the WWE Championship clash between Cody Rhodes and CM Punk could permanently fracture one of wrestling’s strongest friendships. Is championship gold worth sacrificing years of loyalty, or will respect ultimately prevail? Finally, we turn our attention to Minnesota, where hometown favorites Chad Gable, Tiffany Stratton, and Brock Lesnar will all be looking to capitalize on the energy of their home crowd. Will performing in front of family, friends, and hometown fans push them to victory, or will the pressure of competing on one of WWE’s biggest stages prove too much to overcome? The ROWP crew breaks down every major storyline, championship implication, and bold prediction as WWE barrels toward one of the biggest events of the summer. Like, share, subscribe, and keep it locked here.

Who will laugh last after SummerSlam? Can Roman Reigns exorcize the demons of all the turmoil Seth Rollins has caused him over the years, or will “The Visionary” continue his track record of dominance over “The Tribal Chief”? The ROWP family is unified in who we think will be World Heavyweight Champion once the smoke clears. It seems like Cody Rhodes’ last friend in the WWE was CM Punk. Competition has distanced the two to the point where they’re exchanging insults and punches. The ROWP family thinks one of them will cross the line this weekend and turn heel on the other to get the victory in their championship clash. Plus, it’s bigger than titles when it comes to Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar. Legacy is at stake—and literal survival. The two step into arguably WWE’s most dangerous structure, Hell in a Cell. Can Oba fulfill the prophecy as WWE’s new “Next Big Thing,” or will Brock prove he’s still the most unstoppable force in wrestling and that his dominance has no expiration date? Will we see blood? Who will survive? Plus, Ari “The ARIcle” lays down the perfect booking on who should become the new Interim WWE Women’s Champion after the deciding Ladder Match. We also tell you who will betray their partners in the Six-Man Tag Team Match between LA Knight, Solo Sikoa, and Royce Keys vs. Jacob Fatu and The Usos, and why we’re divided on who will emerge victorious in the Intercontinental Championship match between Penta and his challenger, Chad Gable. And Nick Aldis Vs Gunther both want revenge but will the former Smackdown GM reign supreme in his WWE in ring debut against “The Ring General”? Hear the pros and cons why.

Will Ospreay fulfilled his destiny by winning the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament, cementing himself as one of the best wrestlers in the world and earning a World Championship opportunity at All In. But can he finish the story? Standing in his way is AEW World Champion MJF, who first has to survive one of the toughest challenges of his reign when he defends the title against Kenny Omega. Can Max continue proving that he is the company’s franchise player, or does “The Best Bout Machine” have one more legendary championship run left in him? We break down whether Omega still has what it takes to stand atop AEW once again and what a victory for either man means for the company’s future. On the women’s side, Mercedes Moné added yet another accomplishment to her incredible résumé by capturing the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. “The CEO” is headed toward “All In” with momentum on her side, but who will be standing across the ring? Could “Timeless” Toni Storm make a shocking return, reclaim the AEW Women’s World Championship, and set up one of the biggest women’s matches in company history? We’ll discuss the possibilities and what the women’s division could look like heading into AEW’s biggest event of the year. We’ll also examine the star-making performance of Maya World and what her breakout moment could mean for the future of the division. Plus, we take a closer look at Lio Rush, whose intensity and relentless style continue to make him one of AEW’s most dangerous and unpredictable competitors. Is a major singles championship run finally on the horizon? Special guest Gat$ joins us to lend his analysis as we break down every major storyline, championship implication, and the biggest winners and losers coming out of “Forbidden Door”and “Dynamite.” With championship dreams, career-defining opportunities, and the road to All In taking shape, this is one episode you won’t want to miss.

Oba Femi won the King of the Ring tournament in dominant fashion, from the qualifier to the finals, where he bested Jey Uso, thus earning a World Title shot. But as we learned on Monday, the need for revenge sometimes trumps the hunger for gold. The Ruler stays in the SummerSlam main event picture nonetheless. Now, instead of chasing a championship, Oba will face Brock Lesnar in a Hell in a Cell Match in what should be the final bout in their brutal trilogy this year. Will Brock be unbeatable in his hometown, or will Oba avenge the only blemish on his win-loss record since coming to the main roster? We’ll give you our thoughts here. Now about those belts. What a joyous victory for Sami Zayn and all of his fans as the lauded workhorse finally took home the big prize, not only winning the Undisputed WWE Championship but pinning WWE’s QB1, Cody Rhodes, in the process. Cody is definitely coming back for a rematch, but Sami also has to look out for his one-time Bloodline member, Jey Uso. Jey has his eye on bringing the championship back to his family. We’ll break down the ramifications of that as well. Even bigger than that, Seth Rollins came out at the end of Raw and delivered one of his best and most heartfelt promos ever as he challenged Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam. The Tribal Chief had no choice but to accept, noting that he doesn’t want to beat The Visionary—he “needs” to beat his former Shield “brother.” SummerSlam is off to an incredible start, with WrestleMania-worthy main events and tremendous hype surrounding them. We dive even deeper into those matchups, as well as the women’s championship picture. Like, share, subscribe, and keep it locked here.

Get ready as we break down our full predictions for AEW Forbidden Door! We’re previewing every major match, discussing potential surprises, title changes, dream match outcomes, and the biggest crossover moments between AEW and NJPW. Who walks out with championship gold? Which stars will steal the show? And what shocking moments could change the landscape of professional wrestling? Join us as we give our match-by-match predictions, bold takes, and in-depth analysis ahead of one of the most anticipated events of the year. Who do you think is leaving Forbidden Door victorious? Drop your predictions in the comments below!

It’s all on the line for Roman Reigns. Not only can he lose his title to Jacob Fatu at “Clash In Italy,” but he can also lose his seat at the head of the table as his family’s Tribal Chief. Not to mention the brutality he faces as he squares off against his “little” cousin under Tribal Combat rules. Anything goes! But as you’ll hear here, our team thinks the OTC will reign victorious. Discover our rationale. Also, Brock Lesnar is back to run it back with Oba Femi after getting squashed at WrestleMania and signaling his retirement. Learn right here why we think the outcome for The Beast will be different this time, even if Lesnar has to cheat against The Ruler. Elsewhere, Sol Ruka is primed to wrest the Intercontinental title from Becky Lynch, but even in defeat, we feel The Man has a bigger journey on the horizon. Another title change to be on the lookout for is Gunther snatching Cody Rhodes’ belt. We break down how and why it could happen. Keep it locked here.

Hey, we’re like you guys — Danhausen can do no wrong in our books. All of his segments on WWE TV are fun, must-watch moments, as the man continues to endear himself to men, women, kids, and Knicks fans alike!!! It’s all love between Dan and the guys who rep MSG — nothing but orange-and-blue skies and blessings!! We know Dan knows ball, but here he shows us he knows rap too! Check out his top five favorite MCs.

Darby Allin was in it for a good time, not a long time, but his run as AEW World Champion was impactful and fun to watch nonetheless. Now that MJF is back in pole position, thriving in rarified company as a three-time World Champion by the age of 30, not only is a potential rematch with Daredevil Darby on the horizon, but “The Devil” must immediately turn his focus to Rush. Not to mention Jacob Briscoe, who also stepped up with a challenge this week in the aftermath of Double or Nothing. The PLE was rich with action, but there are many drama-filled questions in its wake. Can Will Ospreay really trust Jon Moxley and The Death Riders? What will come of his seemingly inevitable collision with Swerve Strickland in the Owen Hart Tournament? And with Cope and Christian holding the Tag Team Championships, how long can they survive the cavalcade of contenders looking to take their place? Plus, Takeshita defeated Okada for a championship and bragging rights, only to be kicked out of the Don Callis Family, which has been fortified by the return of Kyle Fletcher. All this and more right here, right now. Tune in.

The Street Profits and The Vision put on an absolute banger on Saturday, but Bron Breakker once again imposed his will to help his team get the victory. Meanwhile, Sol Ruca beat Becky Lynch, but due to a DQ, she didn’t walk away with the championship. We break down the entire “Saturday Night’s Main Event” card, including Penta continuing to dominate as the Intercontinental Champion. Plus!!!! Shaheem Reid is the only guy with that last name, makes waves in this podcast.  “The Tribal Thief”  himself, Bronson Reed, not only looks to be well down the road to recovery from injury sustained while wrestling in February,  he looks to have transformed himself with some serious weight loss and muscle bulk. The locker room better be on point.
