Checking In On AEW

In this episode of “Kliq This,” titled “Checking in with AEW,” Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver take a no-holds-barred look at All Elite Wrestling and the ripple effects it’s creating in the pro wrestling landscape. Kevin offers his uncensored thoughts on AEW’s style, particularly the way blood and hardcore elements are used in the women’s division, while Sean weighs in on how these creative choices land from a fan’s perspective. Their chat highlights the differences between the wrestling eras Kevin worked in and the current generation trying to push boundaries and pop the crowd.

Beyond the ropes, the pair can’t resist drifting into real-life territory, tackling everything from economic headlines to late-night infomercial deals. Kevin shares tidbits about his own financial decision-making and how it parallels the unpredictable nature of the squared circle. As always, Sean does his best to rein him in—when he’s not egging him on to spill more backstage stories or personal anecdotes.

Anyone craving an in-depth wrestling discussion will find the AEW talk both enlightening and entertaining. Kevin and Sean debate whether excessive blood still has a place in modern matches or if it risks turning fans off. They also consider how production values, storytelling, and the use of social media have completely altered wrestling since the days of the nWo—and whether AEW is cutting-edge or teetering on overload.

Throughout this candid, laugh-out-loud hour, prepare for some spicy language and brutally honest opinions. Whether you’re a diehard AEW fanatic, a loyal WWE viewer, or simply someone who loves listening to Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver riff on pop culture and wrestling history, this installment of “Kliq This” offers an unfiltered glimpse into the evolving world of sports entertainment—and the economic chaos swirling outside it
