As always, this is a free show. Just click the red button below to listen.
My first-ever pro wrestling year in review series on Josh Nason’s Punch-Out continues with a look at April 2021, a month that saw the return of WWE WrestleMania in front of actual fans, gear returned in trash bags, releases, surprising new hires, title changes and more.
Helping me out is returning guest and one of the voices of AdFreeShows.com, Jon Alba.
A few of the topics we delve into:
- A look back at WWE WrestleMania and NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver
- The in-ring debut of Bad Bunny at Mania
- The Mickie James trash bag incident
- WWE cuts Samoa Joe and nine other roster members and began their march through reshaping the corporate office in Nick Khan’s image
- Adnan Virk was hired for WWE Raw play-by-play without meeting Vince McMahon
- Will Ospreay wins the IWGP title
- Mike Tyson returned to AEW to align with The Inner Circle
- Kenny Omega won his third concurrent World title by defeating Impact’s Rich Swann…and plenty more.
