Spotlight: "Galácticos” (Mercedes Mone, Ospreay, Okada, AEW Collision, Rock Concert, WrestleMania build, Buff Bagwell)
Description
On this week’s show, Benno and JP are joined by a returning GRAPPL Gareth to talk the state of AEW with the fresh blood at the top of the card as the introductions of Mercedes, Will Ospreay and Kazuchika Okada continue to impress, as well as Bryan/Shibata the super indie AEW Collision from the weekend, Matt Hardy, Jack Perry and more.
They also talk the Rock concert on Smackdown and ask if Dwayne Johnson’s star presence is undermining the WrestleMania build, as well as Buff Bagwell on Dark Side of the Ring, DDP on A&E, AAA, NJPW, wXw and the burning question, “Did Kurt Angle have a 5 Star Match?”.
