The Savage Gentleman and Lady Frost are sharing how much they LOVED the first match of NXT Takeover Brooklyn.
Different kinds of wrestling are like different flavors of ice cream. Everyone has their own preferences.
Settling an in-house debate: Do you watch Facebook videos with or without sound?
Table for 3 is all about Twitter. Mayhem Show is all about Facebook.

We're pretty much learning that what's old is new again.
We're talking some Ciampa v Johnny Gargano from NXT Takeover Brooklyn.
Demon Balor on SummerSlam seemed to go over more for the ladies than the gents.

It’s a full house (of sorts) as we’re joined by MaxXouT heading into the Millvale Music Festival in a couple of weeks. They are joined by Sorg, Larry, and Mad Mike this week as we talk about: WMS

Sorg is reminiscing about that time he directed Virgil for a music video with our guests MaxXouT.
Imagine trying to do some work in a professional setting and getting a dude calling you and yelling wrestling stuff into the phone. cough Virgil cough
MaxXouT has a Jake the Snake story, too?!?!
When you realize your wrestling connection with MaxXouT gets even tighter when they went to an IWC show you worked.
MaxXouT is kicking around the idea of having Virgil help with their merch table at the Millvale Music Festival.

WWE may have infiltrated our local wrestling scene this past weekend, which can only mean we’ve got some great content from indy wrestling that’s still very relevant to this show! Even better – we’ve got Farnsworth joining us on the big purple couch to add his thoughts to the mix. As usual, he’s joined by our usual cast of characters as we’ve got Sorg and Larry in studio with Bobby F J-Town and Rizz on live via the internets!

We collectively learned in wrestling this week that the Honky Tonk Man sings at live shows.
Daniel Bryan has been cleared for action – just in time for Mayhem Mania. (And, we have differing views on this week’s show.)
The Ultimate DELETION (finally) happened on RAW!
The Ultimate DELETION wasn’t shown on the Hulu cut? Or in the arena at RAW?
Bobby had a James Ellsworth experience this past weekend.
Did James Ellsworth spoil Ultimate DELETION for Bobby?
It’s time for MayhemMania!
Farnsworth is wearing a Dragonball Z design of the Neon Blondes shirt options with Facade and Dani Mo for this week’s show!
Friend of the Show Chris LeRusso has some points on the Daniel Bryan return to the ring.
