The Stevie Richards Show Episode 16 | WWE vs AEW: Cage Match Comparison

Recently, AEW and WWE have each had one of the bloodiest and brutal cage matches in their respective histories.  AEW had an "Unsanctioned Lights Out Steel Cage Match" at their "All Out" 2024 PPV between "Hangman" Adam Page and Swerve Strickland.  WWE have just come out of their renewed "Bad Blood" PLE which started with the "Hell in a Cell" match between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre.  Each represented an exclaimation mark at the end of long blood feuds and highly anticipated payoffs.  So who better to compare every aspect of those cage matches than the Shaman of the Smartboard, Stevie Richards.  Stevie will take a look at each match and discuss everything that went into them from the stories to the presentation, commentary to the execution of certain meaningful spots in the matches before making a decision on which was best AND WHY!

Stevie will also talk about "The Art of Gigging" and how it's done the "Hard Way", discuss another painful spot from his ECW days and breakdown a questionable spot from the Bayley vs Nia Jax match at WWE's "Bad Blood" PLE.

Stevie Richards surprised, entertained and informed the wrestling world in 2023 when he debuted the Stevie Richards' Wrestling Analysis YouTube channel to widespread critical acclaim. Combining his experience in the wrestling profession with his keen eye for detail and a passion for teaching fans and workers alike, Richards achieved over 100,000 YouTube subscribers in a matter of months with his short form videos explaining exactly what went right or wrong in a particular match or manoeuvre.

With 30+ years working for nearly every major American promotion during their hottest periods (ECW, WCW, WWE, TNA), Stevie Richards is not only dusting off his patented whiteboard and marker to once again break down the psychology and physicality of this crazy business, but Stevie is now adding to his repertoire by debuting a weekly show, imaginatively titled The Stevie Richards Show.

The "show" in The Stevie Richards Show is the key word - this will not be another run of the mill podcast recorded on Zoom, clipped up and posted 8 times a day on YouTube and featuring a disinterested ex pro wrestler out to make a quick buck. What makes The Stevie Richards Show a "show" will be the attention to detail given to every episode, including added on screen annotations, factoids, images and video and 4K camera set up to give the sharpest, best looking, broadcast quality videos on YouTube. Most importantly of all, The Stevie Richards Show's output will be about quality, not quantity.

Every Friday, Stevie Richards and co-host James Romero (WSI | Wrestling Shoot Interviews, Story Time with Dutch Mantell) will discuss the latest news, delve deep into the wrestling profession with more detail and first hand experience than any other podcast, answer fan submitted questions and, yes, break out the whiteboard to break down the what went right, or wrong, in the wrestling world.

The Stevie Richards Show debuts on YouTube and all podcast platforms on Friday, June 28th.
