But for the VERY BEST and most thorough, most thoughtful, most exciting, exuberant and lively #wrestlenewsandwrestleviews in all of the podcastsphere, you MUST turn ONLY to The Whole Ref'n Show. Our heroes Daryn and Perry are especially excited this week to talk to all of YOU about WrestleMania week, including the granddaddy of 'em all, Takeover, the WWE Hall of Fame and so much more! And then there is the matter of John Oliver's gauntlet-throwing! Oliver, from HBO's "Last Week Tonight" broke the internet by being the latest in a long-line of whistle-blowers who pointed out the shady business dealings of one Vincent Kennedy McMahon. Daryn and Perry are going to discuss everything right and everything wrong about Oliver's tirade against the industry and his plea to the wrestling fans. Nevertheless, the boys are focused on the action-packed cards for the weekend, with about 15 titles being defended just between WWE's 2 shows!! A women's winner-take-all bout is set to headline WrestleMania. The Universal Championship is rumored to "move on," as it were, and what about Kofi Kingston? We know Aleister Black and Ricochet are doing double-duty. We know there is a slew of wrestlers going into the Hall of Fame for the 2nd time. And we DON'T know what's going on with NO matches scheduled for John Cena, The Undertaker, Kevin Owens or Dolph Ziggler. With all the spotlights and microscopes of an entire industry converged on the capital of Planet Earth, it is a damn exciting week to be a fan of professional wrestling. So you, wrestling fan, plug this podcast in your ears and LISTEN THIS!! You'll be glad you did.
