Summary

PWTorch editor Wade Keller presents the weekly Flagship edition of the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast with guest co-host Jason Powell from ProWrestling.net and the Pro Wrestling Boom podcast. They discuss these topics:
  • Reaction to WWE confirming today that John Cena's final match will ve at Saturday Night's Main Event in December and who are possible opponents that make sense for that major spot.
  • Assessing Cena's list of opponents so far including how notable it is that only one was under 39 years old (Logan Paul) so far. Is there still time for Cena to step outside his "comfort zone" and actually give back by giving a "big moment" or a boost to someone younger than, say, 35 years old?
  • Thoughts on the storyline and the acting in the Asuka-Iyo Sky-Kairi Sane storyline
  • Where is the Jey Uso-Jimmy Uso-Roman Reigns story headed
  • Reaction to Cody Rhodes needling Seth Rollins over whether he is in favor of and in the loop on the Paul Heyman-Brock. Lesnar dynamic
  • A look at AEW Dynamite's 6th Anniversary show tomorrow night
  • Should AEW even "try" next week against a big NXT show in a rare Tuesday head-to-head battle
  • Assessing Ricky Saints becoming NXT Champion.
  • And more (including reaction to Kirill Kaprizov signing a record contract to remain with the Minnesota Wild for eight additional years).

All right, Jason. John Cena, pretty big star in the last 25 years, and we're about,

1:26.3

what, two and a half months away from his final match on his retirement tour.

1:30.1

I do think everyone should hire a lawyer who are buying tickets to see Cina's last match ever at Saturday's main event.

1:51.0

You're advertising it as such. They could put a caveat and go, John Cena's last match as an

1:56.4

active wrestler on his retirement tour. They could put an asterisk at the very bottom of a press release

2:01.5

going lots of wrestlers intend to retire, but end up coming back for other reasons. We cannot

2:06.8

guarantee that John Cena won't wrestle again. Anyway, but that aside, I just always look at the
