    Kenny Omega vs Kazuchika Okada – Dominion 6.9 (2018)

    This is the one. The grand finale. The culmination of two years of storytelling and one of the most legendary rivalries ever.
    Okada vs Omega IV is a 2-out-of-3 falls match for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. No time limit. No excuses. This was Omega’s last shot after failing three times before. Okada had just broken the record for the longest title reign in New Japan history. Everything about this felt massive.
    We break down every fall, every shift in momentum, and every emotional beat. This was more than just a match it was the end of an era. Emily went into this match knowing the history now, and watching her take it all in for the first time was a blast. From the callbacks to the brutal spots to the final fall, this was wrestling at its absolute peak

    Kenny Omega vs Kazuchika Okada – G1 Climax 27 (2017)

    Everything changes in part three.
    Okada and Omega face off in the G1, but this time it’s not for the title it’s about tournament points and proving a point. The time limit is shorter, the pace is faster, and Kenny comes in with the mindset that he has to beat Okada. It’s the first time he gets the job done, and he does it in under 30 minutes. We talk about how this match felt more explosive from the jump, how the previous two matches built the tension for this one, and what it meant for Omega to finally get that win. Emily wasn’t expecting it to go that fast or be that different from the first two, and her reaction to the quick momentum swings is gold.

    Episode 2: Kenny Omega vs Kazuchika Okada – Dominion 6.11 (2017)

    The rematch. The 60-minute draw. The match that made people realize this rivalry wasn’t just a flash in the pan, it was something special.
    In part two, we watch Kenny and Okada go the full hour in a match that’s all about stamina, strategy, and pride. Omega didn’t walk out with the title, but he proved he belonged at the very top. This match showed just how evenly matched they were and just how much deeper the rivalry could go.
    We break down the key moments, how both guys adjusted their styles from Wrestle Kingdom, and how this match turned the trilogy into a saga. Emily had no idea they went a full hour, and watching her react to the final stretch makes this episode a must-listen.

    Kenny Omega vs Kazuchika Okada – Wrestle Kingdom 11 (2017)

    This is where it all begins.
    In part one of our watch-along series, we dive into the match that shook up the wrestling world and put Kenny Omega on a whole different level. It’s Omega vs Okada for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at Wrestle Kingdom 11. This was Kenny’s first shot at the big one after winning the G1 in 2016 and moving up to heavyweight. Okada was already established as the guy in New Japan, the standard bearer.The expectations were high and somehow they went above and beyond. This was the match that introduced a lot of Western fans to modern NJPW. We talk about what made this match such a moment in time and how wild it was to see Omega risk it all on the biggest stage. For Emily, it’s her first time seeing it, and she shares her honest reactions seeing this epic unfold in real time.

    Blood and Gold: Hangman and Swerve Rivalry
    2025/06/02
    This episode is about one of AEW’s most intense rivalries, Swerve Strickland vs Hangman Adam Page. We’re breaking down the full story, from the first shot fired to the last blow landed.
    We cover:
    • Swerve showing up on Dynamite and calling out Hangman
    • The personal shots that made this feel real — calling Hangman a failure, dragging his family into it
    • WrestleDream and how Swerve shocked everyone by beating him in Seattle
    • The insane Texas Death Match at Full Gear — probably the most violent match in AEW history
    • What this feud did for both guys: Swerve stepping up as a future world champ, and Hangman showing he still has that fire
    • How this rivalry helped build momentum heading into 2024 and reshaped the main event scene


    This wasn’t just a feud for the sake of it. AEW gave it time, let it breathe, and it paid off in a big way. Swerve felt like a made man after this, and Hangman reminded people why he was AEW’s first real homegrown champ.

    The New Pillars
    2025/05/19
    AEW launched with a core of young stars MJF, Darby Allin, Sammy Guevara, and Jungle Boy but as the promotion has grown, so has its foundation. In this episode, Mongo and Emily break down the evolution of AEW’s Four Pillars and spotlight the new faces shaping the company’s future: Will Ospreay, Swerve Strickland, Toni Storm, and Hangman Adam Page.
    Why are these four now the ones holding it down? What happened to the originals? This conversation covers everything from in-ring growth to character reinvention, with a little love for AEW’s ongoing commitment to diversity, storytelling, and star power.
    Who really defines AEW in 2025? Which pillar is ready to run the company? And why Timeless Toni might be the best of them all.
