I watch wrestling every week and even do a small scale podcast myself. I love getting the quick run through at the beginning and then the details as it goes on. One of my can’t miss weekly podcasts. Keep up the great work!
There are plenty of podcasts about wrestling out there and I have listened to many but, All Wrestling is the only podcast that empowers the fans to take part in. Mark does his best to highlight the week in review of the major shows and specifically opens the floor to anyone willing to make a phone call or audio message. Fans can send emails, win free stuff and enjoy a community without having to deal with too many ads.
This guy who recapped the rumble is atrocious. He can’t pronounce any of the wrestlers names right, claims “Amber” Moon is one of his favorites, whoever that is. I know EMBER Moon is the women’s NXT Champion. Knows no nxt storylines, AT ALL, can’t pronounce any wwe wrestlers either, says uhh WAYYYYYY too many times. If you don’t know about something, don’t do a podcast about it. You should stick to what you know. It’s definitely not wrestling or podcasts.
I used to listen to a different podcast about reviewing wwe shows, but it has been cancelled. I don’t have time to watch raw and SmackDown every week and do enjoy the review you do. I wish you guys would run down the matches quickly so we can hear what the matches were and the outcomes for the week, would help for those of us who can’t tune into 5 hours of tv a week. But I will continue to be a listener :)
Also, shoutout to the women wrestling fans! Feels like there aren’t that many of us out there!
I found this podcast by chance a short time ago. Entertaing, a wide variety of opinions and personalities. Everyone is welcome to contribute. I haven't missed an episode since I found it.
Hi we got referred by "Eric the Brain Moore" he passed away last year but we still carry his legacy by discussing wrestling every week. I would love to have the guys get more involve.
Great way to catch up on all the news of the week in 15 minutes or less. Dan is an amazing host and all the callers are unique and bring interesting talking points based on the week that was. It is a call in show with callers putting together 90 sec phone calls discussing something they choose. The show is unscripted and truly nothing like it. Check it out! Thank you Dan for doing what you do. Keep up the good work! Truly a labor of love.
I recently unsubribed to this show. The battling feuds between callers have damaged the flow of the format. I'd listen to this show for wrestling news and positive opinions on how to make the current product better. Unfortunately, it is not that type of show any longer. Good luck with the podcast Dan.
This is the Best Podcast out there and if you want a true unfiltered wrestling opinion without them trveying to sell you something. Download this one. It is full TI PEEPS that add imagination and realness to ery submission call. It is intertaining and I never get tired of it. !!! Thanks to Dan The Cannon
The main attraction of the show is recorded contributions by 40 or 50 listeners, each followed by commentary from the host. It's a first right mix of opinions, humor, sharp analysis, all done with great production. It's one of very few podcasts which I download every episode.
I have a wrestling podcast that I listen to every week. I enjoy it because it tends to cater to rational "smart" wrestling fans." In order to be fair to the podcast I am reviewing, I will state facts about what I heard in the first 15 minutes of the show from the last week of August 2014. I'll save my opinions for the end.
1. In the span of 15 minutes I heard, at least, 6 remixed and/or mashup versions of Attitude Era WWE entrance themes.
2. One of the hosts referred to himself as "The Peoples Champion, Rock."
3. Another host said the following phrases, "Daniel Bryant," "Bryant Wyatt," and "Seth Rowlins."
4. The news segment included numerous stories that did not list sources.
If the list above leads you to think that this would be a good podcast for you, then by all means, download it. However, if you are a "Smart Wrestling Fan," I'd suggest you continue searching.
Just an amazing show that not only makes your wrestling opinion feel respected. It also makes you feel a part of the family, I have been listening for three years now. This is the best community in wrestling history. I may be biased but this community gives you an opportunity to not only listen, also give your own thoughts which people interact with each other. The host is really an amazing person, and not only did he give you a forum to speak your view. He also gives you very well thought out, researched, and educated talking points.
Dan's week in, week out effort to put together a 4-hour show that comes out in a timely manner needs to be applauded. This is a Herculean feat and Dan welcomes and enjoys the challenge; his enthusiasm bubbles throughout the multi-hour affair.
A lot of great and talented people host podcasts worth listening to. Dan has created and manages a community with the Week In Review. If you want to hear what the fans who watch wrestling are thinking about, this is the place to get that. And, if you're so inclined, you can hop in. Be warned: Some of the audio of the callers is pretty sub-par (skip button comes in handy) but, given the nature of the show, that's going to come with the territory.
If you prefer pundit-style analysis of wrestling (with varying degrees of dilettantes and professionals), there are plenty of other shows.
This is an awesome podcast. Some people wrote negative reviews about the host, who I personally think is great, except it doesn't even matter if you like the host or not because you get 50+ phone callers and emailers so you get to hear the pulse of the real wrestling fan. You aren't suppose to agree with what everyone says, this is a forum for healthy debate among smart wrestling fans. Great content and competition amongst great phone callers and emailers. The host puts in a ton of work and has years of experience watching wrestling.
Don't be intimidated by the length. If you have 3 hours to spare, they'll go by fast in no time. This isn't a typical wrestling recap show. It's an assortment of views on professional wrestling, past and present. Host Dan the Cannon is great at moderating the messages from listeners of the online wrestling community. This is awesome sauce!
What can I say other than this is the podcast I wish was around whan I was in highschool it has recindeled in me a love for Wrestling I thought I had lost. No other podcast I listen to has gotten me off my feet and trying to spread the STD. It's like hanging out with all my Wrestling friends that I don't see anymore and BSing like we did back in the day. it's fresh it's fun and it's for every one.
As The Chief, my opinion might be biased, but this entire podcast is at least in the upper echelon of pro wrestling fan podcast. As much as 50 different opinions on the squared circle can be heard, as well as the news and PPV recaps courtesy of GBL and FTW. Well done all. This review is hereby terminated.
I've been listening to the AWWIR for the last 3 episodes. The host, Dan the Cannon, has a unique format: let the people chime in on what they want to talk about and provide answers to their questions or provide some insight. With 40+ calls, emails and mp3 submissions weekly there's plenty of content to plow through. The shows are normally 3 hours in length but that rarely is an issue since I don't feel like I'm just listening. I feel like I'm hanging with other wrestling fans and talking about the what happened that week, round-table style and interacting. One fun aspect is that most callers have a nickname, enterance and gimmick.
All in all, a fun podcast for wrestling fans who are looking to hang out and talk wrestling in a loose, informal but fun forum. Good stuff.
I used to download & listen to a bunch of podcasts. Now, the WIR is the only podcast I listen to every week. It's the only wrestling podcast you need to stay informed. Dan is an A+ host, very knowledgable & passionate. I have learned a LOT from him & the many callers who regularly contribute. Don't let 3+ hours scare you away. Time flies with this world-class show!
The most amazing podcast going today. Where else can a podcast by the people and for the people be heard. This is for us by us. Get off the fence and have a few words with the cannon.
Ever since Mark Perry left the podcast , and left to Dan The Cannon . Well , I've watched as this podcast go down the drain real slowly . As Cannon took over , you slowly saw deception of the NWO fall to its death . Listeners leave .
You won't get your head flipped faster if a luche dore slammed you with hurricanrana. You can call in, be part of the show and share your point of view on all things wrestling. Don't be shy, jump off the fence and deliver a missile drop kick to all of us in the WiR nation!
I used to do a show just like this when i was 14. It sounds like a guy talking to himself on the toilet. The production value is 1998-level and I'm almost sure half of the callers are him using a different voice. I'd rather eat Katie Vick's burnt nether regions than hear this show ever again.
This guy needs to find a co-host or somthin, offers no clear insight to anything except hours of non-stop ramblings about nothing important in the world of wrestling. This dud cannot claim to be the best in weekly discussions. But he does help put me to sleep at night.
It's a lot of fun to listen to, and even more fun to participate in. After listening to this show, you to should call in and join the WiR nation! Take it from me, the #PicassoOfMicrosoftPaint, BEAULY!!
This is by far the best wrestling podcast out there!!!! Never a dull moment, the fans make weekly intelligent calls that really make for great listening. Plus the content and production value of just about every caller is top notch, better than most shows on regular radio. This is a must for any wrestling fan be it casual or like me a passionate one.
