Summary

Ben, Khal, and Brian celebrate two years of 'WORLDWIDE'! They kick off the episode with some of their favorite memories since starting the show (1:11). Then, for the anniversary edition, they go back to an oldie but a goodie, Highspot Headlines, where they react to some of the hottest topics of the week: Miro, Malakai Black, Ricky Starks, and Rey Fenix are reportedly WWE bound after their AEW contracts are up (10:06) Ilja Dragunov is ahead of rehab schedule (22:51) WWE is reportedly planning a draft after WrestleMania (29:43) Jade Cargill is nearing her return; who attacked her? (38:23) Then, for Nostalgia Freakz, they revisit the 1994 Royal Rumble, when Bret Hart and Lex Luger were named cowinners, and discuss whether or not this ending could happen today (39:55). Last, in They Said What?!, they react to a hot take from you, the people, on what’s next for Jacob Fatu and the theme music that got us going as young wrestling fans (58:50).
