Yo, what's going on?

Busted open after Dark Nation.

It's Uncle Bulli.

Thanks for tuning into another edition of the podcast.

AEW World Heavyweight Champion Swerve Strickland in the podcast. AEW World Heavyweight Champion, Swerve Strickland in the ring, along with his new

You should have aired on dynamite a package, a recap package of Swerve winning the World Heavyway Championship in AEWEW and then put up a graphic that

swerve would be opening up collision with his promo and the first time we're hearing from him as champion,

especially if you knew you were going to have the strong NBA lead tie-in.

And I believe A-E-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-in. And I believe AEW came on the air with like 1.3 million viewers on Saturday night
