This week on the Wrestling Mayhem Show, Sorg, Mad Mike, and Rizz welcome the intergalactic tag team MDMA (El Luca & Los Tonios) for one of the most chaotic, hilarious, and unexpectedly insightful episodes in recent memory.

The crew breaks down the latest WWE Royal Rumble, including standout moments from the women’s match, mixed reactions to the men’s Rumble finish, and how crowd presentation and production choices impacted the overall experience. Along the way, the conversation dives into Saudi Arabia event logistics, roster usage, bonuses, and how WWE continues to evolve its premium live events.

MDMA share their origin story, explain what “Most Dope Masked Aliens” really means, talk about landing in 880 Wrestling, and reveal how Rizz mysteriously disappeared with them after the 20 Years of Mayhem celebration. The episode also features the return of Mayhem Mania, where the panel books dream WrestleMania matches under strict rules — and chaos immediately ensues.

As always, the show wraps with “What We Learned”, featuring takes on the Royal Rumble, fandom, storytelling, and why wrestling is more fun when you let yourself enjoy the ride.
