This week on Wrestling Tonight, we break down a landmark weekend in pro wrestling. WWE’s first-ever two-night SummerSlam at MetLife Stadium featured two massive world title changes, a shocking return from Brock Lesnar, and the naming of The Vision. CM Punk’s long-awaited championship win over Gunther was immediately erased by Rollins’ Money in the Bank cash-in, while Cody Rhodes closed out Night Two by defeating John Cena… only to watch Lesnar drop Cena with a post-match F5. We recap the full SummerSlam card, including Naomi’s crafty title defense, the Wyatt Sicks’...

Welcome to Wrestling Tonight: Chad returns with Acefield Retro for your weekly deep dive into WWE, AEW, NJPW, TNA, and everything in between. On July 24, 2025, the wrestling world lost its most recognizable icon. Terry Bollea, Hulk Hogan passed away at the age of 71, leaving behind a legacy as towering as his persona. From Saturday morning cartoons to WrestleMania main events, Hogan was the face that launched wrestling into pop culture. But his story is as complicated as it is influential. This week, we reflect on the full scope of Hogan’s life, the glory, the controversy,...

info_outlineWelcome to Wrestling Tonight, your weekly deep dive into everything happening across WWE, AEW, NJPW, TNA, and more. This is Episode 134, and we’re coming off one of the most eventful weekends of the summer.
We start with the fallout from TNA Slammiversary 2025, where AJ Styles returned to the company he helped build. While the Phenomenal One didn’t compete, his appearance marked a symbolic homecoming — and perhaps the beginning of something bigger. We break down what his involvement means for the WWE–TNA partnership, what’s next for Trick Williams and Jacy Jayne after defending their titles, and how TNA continues to evolve as a major player in the current wrestling landscape.
Then — Goldberg is done staying quiet. The Hall of Famer is furious over how WWE handled his final match, venting on the Ariel Helwani Show about being cut off, ignored, and given no real send-off. With his NDA reportedly set to expire in two weeks, we dig into what Goldberg hinted at — and whether WWE might be bracing for a scorched-earth response.
Meanwhile in AEW, Tony Khan opens up about feeling double-crossed by AAA during the infamous 2022 tag title switch involving FTR and Dragon Lee. We revisit the moment, what really happened behind the scenes, and why this revelation — combined with AEW’s growing relationship with CMLL — signals a full pivot away from AAA in the wake of WWE’s pending acquisition.
