We discussed the "Tuesday Night War" between AEW and NXT, including Tony Khan's "unhinged" tweets attacking WWE executives.

Topics included John Cena and The Undertaker's surprise appearances on NXT, the Keith Lee situation, and Thunder Rosa's wrestling journey.

We reviewed indie shows like Enjoy Wrestling and Exodus Pro Wrestling, praising the booking and talent.

Other topics included WOW Women of Wrestling, the NWA relaunching territories with Exodus Pro, the Tony Storm gimmick in AEW, and various streaming services.

Guest Emily Fear from the Grit and Glitter podcast talked about an Enjoy Wrestling show, including the Killer Kelly vs Ida Surreal main event.

We gave shoutouts to various indie wrestlers like Highway Miles Jacobs and talked about upcoming charity streams.

Marcus Mann joins the mayhem this week, which means it's likely we'll be talking very little wrestling and a bunch of John Cena. Thankfully we have Larry, Matt, Rizz, Mad Mike, and Sorg to keep the show rolling as we discuss:

• We have Marcus Mann on the show - the guy who hasn't watched wrestling since September?
• Welcome to the Young Justice episode?
• Marcus Mann is sharing some thoughts on Brock Lesnar and Brock-being-Brock.
• Anytime Marcus Mann watches a wrestling match, he has some psychology assessments thanks to Shirley Doe.

• Randy Orton walks a line all the time.
• This is the time in the show when Marcus Mann tells us how amazing John Cena is.
• Marcus Mann is not a fan of skinny Cena.
• With Patreon in the Bank looming, we're looking to see if Marcus Mann can book a MayhemMania match WITHOUT John Cena (if someone uses an eliminator).

• What did YOU learn in wrestling this week?

It's that magical time of year when we put ourselves in Vince McMahon's shoes for MayhemMania. We've got Mad Mike, Larry, Farnsworth, Sorg, and Mainstream Matt in studio to talk about:

• We're preparing for NXT to see some roster changes due to some call-ups.
• 205 Live has a new broadcast member in Aiden English.
• We are headed into the royalest of rumbles with men's and women's Royal Rumble matches.
• We're running down all of the places where you can find John Cena (or his voice). He's everywhere!
• We are relying on Sasha Banks to save what could otherwise be a meh match with Ronda Rousey to make it amazing.
• Ronda Rousey should be in NXT learning the ropes. She's doing okay where she is - but she'd be better if she were going through and learning the ropes.
• We're blaming Smashmouth for so many things tonight.
• We're talking some Hardcore Holly and Brock Lesnar.
• Are we comparing Finn Balor to Hardcore Holly? Maybe.
• We're running through our dark horse options for the Royal Rumble.
• It's MayhemMania season - which means we're booking our dream matches.
• What did YOU learn in wrestling this week?

Follow our stable on Twitter: Sorg (@Sorgatron), Mad Mike (@MadMike4883), Larry (@MutilatorLarry), Matt (@MainstreamMat) ‏and Farnsworth (@jworth).

• We're back after our holiday break - and we're officially a year older as we celebrate our birthday with Sorg and the crew.
• We are enjoying Mad Mike's Becky Lynch shirt for the show tonight.
• Mayhem Mania is coming up - and the playing field just changed. Things could get REALLY interesting this year.
• Sorg is sporting his sweet Shawn Phoenix shirt for the show tonight!
• There was a formal protest of sports entertainment that happened this evening.
• Live production is tough - Sorg is speaking in his professional experience, of course.
• It was great to see Friend-of-the-Show Britt Baker on the All Elite announcement.
• Chris Jericho was the big reveal of the All Elite announcement.
• We're speculating on who else we may see pop up in All Elite given the talent that appeared at the conference and some of the relationships we're aware of.
• Mainstream Matt made it in time for some birthday cake!
• Mainstream Matt totally rolled in with his Sam Adonis shirt. Best. Birthday. Party. Ever.
• Who else watched Wrestle Kingdom 13? We're sharing some of our thoughts.
• John Cena is slowly turning into John Laurinaitis.
• Mainstream Matt is crushing dreams.
• The biggest thing from Wrestle Kingdom 13? Okada's short shorts.
• Ibushi and Ospreay are magic.
• There are a ton of exclusive contracts in various companies - how will that affect some of the former talent team-ups we've seen?
• This week's Big Question: Part 1: Who was your favorite wrestler when you were 14? Part 2: Make a match you’d want to see with your 14-year-old wrestler and someone from today’s roster.
• We're headed back in time to 2006 - remembering what wrestling was like when the Mayhem Show was born.
• Mad Mike unearthed a fan mail from Juggalo Jamie - just for our birthday celebration.

Rob Johnston joins us to talk about some Dojo Pro wrestling. He, of course, is joined by our usual stable of ne'er-do-wells including Sorg, Dave Podnar, and Alex Kahrs as they talk this week in wrestling, including:

That's right, we've kidnapped Rob Johnston from the AwesomeCast podcast so we can talk Dojo Pro (among other things).
Extreme Rules was in Pittsburgh, and we are once again reminded why we can't have nice things.
Sorg was so close at Extreme Rules that he almost took a pancake to the face.
Dave heard Steelers chants come through the TV feed for Extreme Rules. Sorg recalls no such chants. Were they piped in? Hmmm.
Things we are thankful for - The Roman Reigns v Bobby Lashley match didn't follow the Iron Man Match at Extreme Rules.
We didn't see Elias in his hometown for Extreme Rules - despite the obvious Pittsburgh references throughout.
Sorg is sad he didn't get an awesome Shinsuke v Jeff Hardy match.
THE CROWD GOT KICKED IN THE BALLS BY SHINSUKE!
Rob can FEEL the wrestling in Nashville.
We're taking a few moments to remember Bruno Sammartino and the history of wrestling.
Speaking of our guest, Rob, it was great seeing him being pushed around in the ring on a Dojo Pro video on Facebook.
Rob Johnston is talking about some of the fun with Dojo Pro.
The biggest message from Rob Johnston - Dojo Pro is bingeable!
Rob has some thoughts on Joey Janela.
It's convenient that we're talking with Rob Johnston on THIS episode.
Rob had a chance to speak with Hulk Hogan a few years back.
Hulk Hogan is not the same as Terry Bollea. It's important to make separations between characters and people.
Some heels get crap from fans for being heels, then Kevin Owens gets the spotlight at a Shania Twain concert.
This week's Big Question: Which wrestling superstar needs to release an album next?
Mad Mike couldn't be here this week - so he sent a Mad Mike Mail!
eFeds are a thing Alex Kahrs is explaining to us.
Sorg is headed to the Gathering of the Juggalos, and he'll be seeing some interesting wrestling.
Joey Janela is apparently facing John Cena at the Gathering of the Juggalos.

We swear – this is a wrestling podcast.
Nikki and John are back together! #LoveIsReal

We're back from a week hiatus with Sorg, Larry, and Mad Mike as they talk this week in wrestling, including:

Do you want the good news or the ugly news first?
OH: It's not good, and it's not bad enough to be funny - It's like TNA.
Enzo made a video. For not wanting to talk about it, we're spending some time talking about it.
Because Mad Mike stepped away for a moment, Sorg is taking this time to talk about his return to Impact Wrestling.
When you're good - but not Jim Ross good.
There are some changes coming up in our wrestling.
Thing we didn't realize we need: Chikara to be a Nickelodeon property.
Bullet Club as Backstreet Boys?!?!?! mind blown
The tire-fire that is Monday Night RAW?
Larry has officially replaced RAW with NJPW.
All three members of 3MB are in significant roles on RAW. Think about it. Think. About. It.
Everything you loved about Broken Matt Hardy is on instagram with King Maxel.
John Cena is going to be in a cartoon.
Sami Zayn isn't in a good place, but man, is he working hard to be the most relevant non-relevant person at the moment.
John Cena and EC3 inception photo is amazing.
This week's Big Question: If you could take 5 wrestlers from any promotion to create the perfect promotion, who would you pick?
There are some interesting things happening with the NWA title.

We have a full studio this week as we're joined by Mambo Italiano and Calvin Couture of Golden Chic International. As for the mayhem crew, Mad Mike has returned from WrestleMania, and Sorg and Larry are keeping our guests company in Sorgatron Media studio as we talk about:

Mad Mike is getting us all caught up on his visit to WrestleMania. WMS
If Mambo Italiano is The Miz, does that make Calvin Couture the Miztourage?
What do you get when you have some former WWE stars at a local high school? IWC Wrestling Night of the Superstars! (So we're going to take a moment to talk about some great moments from the show.)
Mambo Italiano appreciated some quality time with Mark Henry, while Calvin Couture had a moment with Jack Swagger at Night of the Superstars.
The BIG news in WWE is the Superstar Shakeup. We caught the RAW shakeup last night, and are catching the Smackdown shakeup results as we're recording this week's podcast.
Mad Mike is suffering from some TNA PTSD with this Superstar Shakeup.
Is Jeff Hardy angling for a Hell in a Cell spot?
It would be more efficient to let us know who's staying where during the Superstar Shakeup.
Dear WWE - Give us visuals on this Superstar Shakeup and tournaments. The NCAA does well with March Madness for a reason. ;)
Now we're on to the big news in WWE this week - the John Cena and Nikki Bella break-up.
Thanks to Mikey and Big Bob for giving us the perfect emotional response to the Nikki Bella and John Cena break-up.
The Miz and Maryse played the long-game in their feud against Nikki Bella and John Cena.
With everyone headed to Smackdown are they going to stretch it to a third hour?
The Greatest Royal Rumble is the same day as The Avengers?!?!?! collective mayhem happy dance
We've found Brock Lesnar's weakness - pancakes.
We're talking about X-Pac's dog!
We're talking a little bit of IMPACT.
Mad Mike loves him some Brian Cage.
The key is to have creativity with just the right amount of a leash from management.
Part of the problem with non-WWE wrestling today is getting yourself out there for your audience to find you.
This week's Big Question: Now that John Cena and Nikki Bella’s engagement is officially off, who will be the rebound?
When Carson Daly becomes relevant during a wrestling discussion.
Mambo Italiano had a moment with Honky Tonk Man a month(ish) ago.

We’ve got the RYSE Wrestling Head of Talent Relations, Marcus Mann, on the sofa this week!
Sorg was in Florida over the weekend, and had a chance to visit the Hulk Hogan shop down there.
Marcus Mann is sharing some updates about what they’re up to down at RYSE Wrestling. Want to check it out? Head over to www.indywrestling.us
We’ll be getting to some Fastlane and WrestleMania talk shortly. But first – John Cena has a Road to WrestleMania and Marcus couldn’t be happier.
John Cena broke RAW.
We’re breaking down an interesting comparison between John Cena, Hulk Hogan, and Chris Jericho.
It’s the wrestler’s responsibility to take that #1 spot. If someone isn’t taking that spot, then it really belongs to the guy at the top. (In this case John Cena.)
Vince McMahon will not give anyone a Jr. suffix because he feels it is demeaning.
Sorg apparently ran into Paige at an ICP show last week?
Fastlane happened this weekend, and we’ve got a clearer picture about what we’ll be seeing at WrestleMania.
We found out Marcus Mann is apparently a huge Brock Lesnar fan, in addition to being a John Cena fan…and a Chris Jericho fan…
We’re taking a trip down memory lane…to Summer Slam 2002.
You think Brock Lesnar could kill a person – watch him punch Braun Strowman in the face. He’s the closest thing we can get to a Bruiser Brody.
Are we setting ourselves up for disappointment by setting our expectations too high for WrestleMania?
Thanks to The Bar we can no longer take discussions regarding setting the bar seriously.
When ranking WrestleMania events, which one is the “average” by which you should set your expectations by?
It’s time for MayhemMania! Let’s see what havoc we can wreak this week!
It’s getting near time for Patreon in the Bank. Are you a supporter of the show so you can get in on it https://www.patreon.com/wrestlingmayhemshow

Chris DeJoseph is coming to us FROM the new Lucha Underground temple.
There are some growing pains with Lucha Underground moving to a new temple.
What we’ve learned so far from Chris DeJoseph: Spare no expense when it comes to porta-potties.
Because we’ve got Chris DeJoseph on the line with us, we’re asking for a Lucha Underground and Big Brother mash-up.
There’s a combined Lucha Underground and IMPACT Wrestling show WrestleMania weekend.
We never know who’s going to pop up when we’re live streaming with Chris DeJoseph – like Drago.
We’re putting it out there: Who from Lucha Underground do you want to see make coffee in their underwear with RJ City?
Another very important question about the new Lucha Underground location: We’re learning where the best place(s) to eat are.
Building new temples is hard, yo.
A new temple gives Lucha Underground new, crazy things to think of!
It’s time – FOR MAYHEMMANIA with our special guest Chris DeJoseph.
Mad Mike may have figured out the path for John Cena to get to WrestleMania with his first MayhemMania match-up of the night.
Did Mad Mike dole out his MayhemMania punishment to our guest Chris DeJoseph?!?!?
Did we book Asuka v Brock Lesnar on MayhemMania?
