🎙️ The New Level Changes the Game, Netflix Blurs Reality, and the Lucha Bros Steal the Show

Wrasslin’ Wroundtable — Episode 81 Ryan Hall and Dominique LaRue discuss a move that could reshape the wrestling business, the continuing mystery of Royce Keys’ “Black Tank Top Gang,” Netflix’s strange censorship decision, and a Match of the Year candidate with enormous title implications. Show Notes • The New Day Levels Up—and Wrestling Changes Forever Kofi Kingston and Austin Creed heading to AEW is bigger than one promotion signing two decorated performers. It could represent a genuine sea change for professional wrestling. Ryan and Dom discuss what their arrival means for AEW, WWE, and wrestlers searching for alternatives. They also ask the unavoidable question: Why would WWE ask two men who helped make the company a fortune—and built one of wrestling’s most successful acts—to accept such a massive pay cut? WWE’s loss might become a defining gain for the entire industry. • OTM—or Royce Keys’ Black Tank Top Gang That is what Dom called them, and honestly, it may stick. Royce Keys, Lucien Price, and Bronco Nima continue attacking people backstage, but what is the actual endgame? Ryan and Dom try to determine whether these attacks are building toward a larger story or if WWE introduced yet another faction before deciding what it stands for. Black tank tops are not a motive. • Why Did Netflix Blur the Blood? Netflix hosts plenty of movies and shows featuring far more graphic violence, yet the blood covering Jimmy, Jey, and Solo was blurred during Raw. Ryan and Dom explain why the issue isn’t blood for blood’s sake. In the right story, blood adds consequence and makes the conflict feel real. Blurring it only draws attention to the production and breaks the illusion WWE worked so hard to create. If the violence matters to the story, let the audience see the story. • Penta vs. Rey Fenix: A Match of the Year Candidate With a shot at Roman Reigns’ championship waiting in Mexico City, Penta and Rey Fenix delivered a Match of the Year contender. Ryan and Dom break down the chemistry, emotion, and spectacular in-ring action—and discuss whether the winner can carry that momentum into a championship match against the Tribal Chief in two weeks. All that and more on Episode 81 of Wrasslin’ Wroundtable—where The New Level may have changed the business, OTM still owes everyone an explanation, and Netflix apparently discovered its limit. 📲 Stay Connected Follow the Wroundtable… or Danhausen will curse you. 👉 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/wrasslinwroundtable/ 👉 Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575895663428 👉 Follow Dom on TikTok (yes, like R-Truth did)https://www.tiktok.com/@whodatrue?_r=1&_t=ZT-94GIllGv5OH
