WWE could not have found an easier way to annoy Mav, Maz and 'Plan if they tried than forcing Brock Lesnar back into their lives, so they spend the first half of this week's show bemoaning the return of the Beast. They then have a look at where the shotgun booking might be going, before switching gears to praise the AJ Styles vs Seth Rollins match, have a debate about the night the women's division had, and think about what would constitute a breaking point for their WWE fandom.  

In this week's edition of Sports Entertainment is Dead, ‘Plan presents the traditional Performance Art Review of this last Sunday's biggest pay per view – Money in the Bank 2019! Refusing to cover the malignant main event and its horrible conclusion, ‘Plan instead focuses first on the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladders Match that opened the show, specifically as a piece of genre wrestling. He then moves onto the shared universe storytelling of Becky Lynch’s night and wraps up with a look at the sublimely wrestled and nostalgically styled Seth Rollins vs. AJ Styles encounter.     Theme Song: Max Flashback   Artist: Lee Rosevere   Album: Music for Podcasts

Impact Wrestling returned to The Asylum in Nashville Wrestle Kingdom weekend, but due to the company's PPV model, the guys are just getting around to covering it.  The Lucha Bros took on LAX, the vacant X-Division title was decided in an Ultimate X match, Taya Valkyrie and Tessa Blanchard battled it out for the Knockouts Championship, and in the main event Johnny Impact defended against Brian Cage.  The guys also watched EVOLVE 127, so will discuss that, as well.  Plus, All Elite Wrestling have their first official event, Double or Nothing, this coming Saturday.  What are the guys' final thoughts on it?

It's time for ladders and briefcases and huge opportunities to come to the fore as WWE presents Money In The Bank! Who will earn a shot at the Champions on their choosing at any time, any place? We'll find out tonight, in addition to seeing exactly who those potential champions may be with multiple titles on the line. Join your host, former Late Shift host Steven Bell, as he takes a LIVE look at WWE's Money In The Bank PPV mere moments after the show goes off the air!

This week, The Doc is primed and ready for an intriguing WWE Money in the Bank card.  Rollins vs. Styles and Owens vs. Kofi provide an excellent one-two punch of title matches, with the signature gimmick bouts providing back-up; the rest of the card has filled out nicely, as well, with plenty of depth to further the reputation of Money in the Bank as the defacto fifth pay-per-view in a "Big 5."  Doc offers a quick-hitting but still densely packed preview ahead of tonight's event.  Then, he transitions to talking about All Elite Wrestling's first show coming up next Saturady.  Double or Nothing comes with tremendous enthusiasm and high expectations.  What does Doc want out of it besides great wrestling matches?

This week, 'Plan and Mav have a look at this weekend's Money In The Bank pay-per-view in the light of one of the poorest months of creative in recent memory. The boys begin by going into their thoughts on why the television has been so bad, and what they make of reports surrounding Vince's increasingly bizarre handling of creative. They then look match by match at the card for Sunday, pick some winners, and talk about some of their issues with the booking and writing of the show.

There are no big events this week, nothing absolutely shaking the wrestling world apart, and the guys didn't plan anything in particular, but that doesn't mean they can't bullshit about professional wrestling for a couple of hours.  The Best of the Super Juniors is underway, Ring of Honor and NJPW also just finished up the War of the Worlds tour, and supposedly an announcement is coming on Wednesday regarding All Elite Wrestling's television home and viewing options for Double or Nothing.  On a show that Jeff has constantly accused of being ADD, this will likely be the most ADD of them all.

This week, The Doc is joined by 2018 LOP Columnist of the Year, Sir Sam, for the Sunday Wrestling Conversation.  Sir Sam, borrowing an idea from LOP Columns legend, Prime Time, suggested that they look to their favorite sports to find possible WWE storyline opportunities largely unutilized in sports entertainment lore.  The Doc, for instance, looks to his spring-time obsession with playoff basketball for one of his ideas, which frankly would allow the often laborious stretch between post-WrestleMania and the start of Summerslam Season to engage the audience with matches that matter across television and PPV.  Sam counters with an idea that would send John Cena's legendary status to a different level, particularly with diehard wrestling fans who have often been repulsed by the concept of him breaking Ric Flair's World Title record.  It is a fun, spirited, and rather timely chat by The Doc and Sir Sam given the events of the week that brought us "The Wildcard Rule" for Raw and Smackdown, and they hope you'll jo

This is not a regular night for KoH, nor is it a regular show.  For the first time ever, Jeff and Shane will watch right along with a live show and do commentary on it as it is happening.  They will also discuss other things going on in the pro wrestling business and other stream of consciousness stuff as things come to mind in slow moments of the show.  AEW, the Crockett Cup, and more are sure to be topics of discussion for your boys of Honor. @Reejecoap @XanManLOP Facebook.com/Kingdom of Honor  

In this week's edition of Sports Entertainment is Dead, ‘Plan discusses the issue of WWE’s overloaded raft of characters in the event rumours of the Brand Extension ending prove true!   With news that both USA and FOX are pushing for an end to the Brand Extension in the wake of dismal ratings, ‘Plan sits down and takes a look at the fact that WWE is overloaded with characters that will need rearranging should a single-roster system take hold once more. He starts by listing the three characters that would be first in line for cutting should the Extension come to an end, before going on to look at three he believes should be developed further and allowed a more central position in the same scenario.     Theme Song: Max Flashback   Artist: Lee Rosevere   Album: Music for Podcasts
