Summary

PWTorch editor Wade Keller presents the Tuesday Flagship edition of the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast with guest co-host PWTorch columnist and PWTorch podcast host Greg Parks. They discuss these topics:
  • Can C.M. Punk and Finn Balor both benefit from their Elimination Chamber match?
  • Mailbag Topic: Can a stipulation elevate the potential Drew McIntyre vs. Cody Rhodes match at WrestleMania?
  • Does WWE have any other match to offer as the WWE Title match than a rerun of Drew vs. Cody? What options exist? Should they swing wildly and have Je'Von Evans win the Chamber to shake up the status quo? Should they expand to a Triple Threat or Fatal 4-Way?
  • Mailbag Topic: What woman's match could actually headline night 1 of WrestleMania? A.J. Lee vs. Becky Lynch? Jade Cargill vs. Charlotte or Rhea Ripley or other?
  • The Big Mystery Box in WWE - Chris Jericho or a WrestleMania mascot or what?
  • Kenny Omega vs. Swerve Strickland on Dynamite
  • The MJF-Brody King saga from media coverage to anti-ICE chants to the booking of the feud to what's next for Brody King?
  • Wheeler Yuta's hair loss
  • Kris Statlander, Thekla, and Toni Storm's next moves
  • TNA's first month or so on AMC and how they shook things up without overhauling the roster
  • Mailbag Topic: Kit Wilson's gimmick, why Greg doesn't like it, and Wade's case why it's not really just a laughing matter (even if Kit pulls it off great).

It's time for the weekly flagship talking current events in pro wrestling.

1:04.6

All right, Greg, Elimination Chamber is almost right around the corner, but we don't have a full lineup yet.

1:11.3

But we do have Seampunk and Finn Baller in a, I guess we'll call it a B show.

1:18.4

It's not WrestleMania or SummerSlam or the Rumble.

1:20.9

World title match.

1:22.4

And a big discussion on the Wade Keller post show last night on Raw, centered around Finn Baller, getting another

1:28.3

chance to be kind of in a semi-top tier situation here. It's not a WrestleMania main event,

1:33.4

but it's a world title match or, yeah, world heavyweight title match on pay-per-view. It seems to me

1:39.3

that it is unlikely very many W.B fans are going to think, oh, this is going to shake up

1:44.3

WrestleMania. Finn Baller is going to win the title. They are playing up,

1:49.0

Adam Pierce going, I don't want to risk my WrestleMania made events. So maybe that's more.

1:52.9

There's another layer to that, which is maybe they're going to play up that Sion Punk does come

1:57.7

out of this kind of beat up. And that's a story. I think mostly it's to get Sien Punk a title match

2:03.6

and have the Finn Baller story with the Judgment Day advance.

2:08.2

Talk about the build for this.

2:09.8

And if you think they're getting the most out of this,
