Wrestling PPV Names

The Palskis are talking all about Wrestling PPV Names, from the good, to the bad, to the absolutely fugly. What do they mean anymore? Do they actually help sell tickets or buys? Are events named after matches inherently better, or worse? Exactly WHOS balls are great and WHY are they on fire?! 

News of the week includes WWE returning to MSG, getting new Raw and SD sets, oh and releasing a bunch more talent including Breezango, The Bollywood Boys, a brand new writer and many more. Also Impact hears some wedding bells on the horizon, John Cena isn't done with wrestling, and much more.

We also have the 2nd ever PWP Championship Palski Battle Royal!

Unlikely Tag Teams

Today the Palskis are talking all about unlikely tag-teams and how the formula of an odd couple has brought some people incredible success, and others terrible awful shame. Also teams that found each other out of necessity, boredom, or even last ditch efforts at relevance. 

News of the week includes two wrestling babies, Samoa Joe's return to NXT, The Million Dollar Champion, PWG's return, and Cody Rhodes new podcast venture!

WWE Encyclopedia

The boys are updating their classic Patreon Series, WWE Encyclopedia for the new era of Pro Wrestling Palskis, which includes the brand new, recently gifted, "4th Edition" of the famed hardcover book! The topics are up to the fates as they pick random pages and discuss whatever they see! This week finds them talking Mabel/Viscera and Men on a Mission, Luther Reigns, Bret Hart, Brie Bella, the Mae Young Classic, handsome Gerald Briscoe, and both Man Mountain Mike and Man Mountain Rock... yep both the Men Mountain!

News of the week includes the all women's NWA PPV, Lio Rush's retirement, Andrade el Idolo's AEW debut and much more!

WWE : Then. Now. Endeavored.

When WWE releases yet another handful of talent including recent Championship contender and headliner like Braun Strowman, the show topic just sort of falls into our lap! The constant releases, changes, and more have the web speculating on the state of WWE. So lets talk about it! It's Then. Now. Endeavored! The Current state, and future of WWE as the world's leading “Pro Wrestling” organization.

"B Plus Players"

This week we're talking about "B Plus Players." It may have had a negative connotation when Stephanie McMahon labeled Daniel Bryan as one, but it's grown to describe a wellspring of talented wrestlers who, for whatever reason, never quite made it to (or were able to sustain) main event status.  We're talking all about our favorites and more and why it may be they've been stuck with label. 

News topics of the week include WWE going back on the road, the release of Velveteen Dream, the status of Adnon Virk, Don Callus, a NJPW Covid outbreak and more!

One More Match!

News of the week includes a wave of NXT releases, AEW Rampage, and the passing of Jerome Young, AKA New Jack.

Main topic is the ever romanticized notion of "One More Match." From those who have come out of retirement, to others who never quite officially left the business behind, we're talking about superstars who have successfully returned for one last moment of glory, and those who may regret having done so. Plus who do we feel has one more match in them and what do they need in an opponent? All that and more on the maiden voyage of Pro Wrestling Palskis.

Pro Wrestling Palskis starts next week!

In case you missed it, next week Pro Wrestling Palskis begins! Scott and Jake are here to let you know what to expect!
