    Jan 2 2026
    This looks like someone's handwritten predictions for wrestling storylines in 2026! It's a fun list of bold predictions for various wrestling promotions. Here's what stands out:

    Some interesting takes include The Death Riders turning on Jon Moxley, Kyle Fletcher becoming AEW World Champion by beating MJF, and the Okada vs Takeshita feud feeding their families with banger matches. The women's division prediction has Mercedes Mone winning the championship from Kris Statlander.

    For WWE, there are predictions about Harley Cameron challenging for the TBS Championship (though that's an AEW title, so there might be some confusion there), a babyface Jacob Fatu potentially facing Cody Rhodes, and Liv Morgan turning on Raquel Rodriguez to kick her out of the Judgement Day Group.

    Tag team predictions include The Usos defeating AJ Styles and Dragon Lee to become new tag champions, and predictions about Oba Femi, Trick Williams, and Je'Von Evans moving up to the main roster as future main eventers.

    Episode 11 - Inside The Square: The Wrestling Podcast
    Dec 30 2025
    I can see you've written detailed notes for Episode 11 of your wrestling podcast "Inside The Square"! This looks like a 2025 year-in-review episode covering the major championship changes across different wrestling promotions.

    Your booking idea for Carmelo Hayes is interesting - having him lose the United States Championship to build toward a WrestleMania 42 moment. The concept of Hayes having a dominant reign, then losing it to someone like Trick Williams, Tama Tonga, Nathan Frazer, Axiom, Tommaso Ciampa, or Johnny Gargano in a ladder match creates a compelling storyline. The idea that WWE took the title off Ilja Dragunov specifically to give Hayes a clean victory for the championship makes sense from a storytelling perspective.

    You also mention their NXT days matches being "banger after banger after banger" - those Hayes vs. Dragunov encounters were definitely highly regarded by fans.

    Are you planning to record this episode soon, or are you still working through your notes? Also, is there a particular direction you're leaning for who should beat Hayes for the title?

    # Inside The Square: The Wrestling Podcast Episode 10 - Production Notes

    This episode of Inside The Square wrestling podcast covered five matches from WWE Saturday Night Main Event programming. The notes document key storylines, match quality assessments, and notable crowd reactions from the broadcast.

    ## Match Coverage Summary

    The episode analyzed matches featuring both established main event talent and rising stars. Cody Rhodes appeared in the opening segment against Oba Femi, delivering what the host assessed as exceptional in-ring work that was unfortunately undermined by a controversial finish involving Drew McIntyre's interference. This match established the quality benchmark for the episode, as Rhodes and Oba Femi demonstrated strong chemistry before the interference angle shifted focus to the ongoing Rhodes-McIntyre rivalry.

    Bayley faced Sol Ruca in the second featured match, which received similarly high marks for match quality. The host noted that Sol Ruca's imminent promotion to the main WWE roster was evident from her performance level and presentation during this bout. The technical execution and storytelling throughout this match reinforced the host's view that it represented pure cinema-quality professional wrestling.

    The tag team match pitting AJ Styles and Dragon Lee against Je'Von Evans and Leon Slater generated significant discussion due to its pacing issues. While the bout itself earned praise as a banger with impressive athletic sequences, the host expressed frustration that Evans and Slater received an excessive five-minute advantage period before their opponents entered. Despite this structural concern, the match ultimately delivered on intensity and went into what the notes describe as a crazy final sequence.

    R-Truth, Joe Hendry, and The Miz worked together in a segment that the host characterized as pure gold. The appearance of Joe Hendry at Saturday Night Main Event particularly excited the reviewer, suggesting this represented meaningful exposure for Hendry on WWE's premium programming platform.

    The main event featuring John Cena versus Gunther received the most extensive commentary in the notes. The host praised this as another pure cinema match befitting the Saturday Night Main Event stage. However, the most memorable aspect proved to be the shocking post-match angle where John Cena appeared to tap out to Gunther, creating a moment of stunned silence from the WWE audience. The crowd's reaction evolved from the silent shock through chants of profanity directed at Gunther to eventually adopting the hashtag Thank You Cena. This complex crowd response suggested the angle successfully generated the intended emotional impact, even if the immediate reaction included negative sentiment toward the heel's victory method.

    ## Analytical Themes

    Throughout the episode notes, the host consistently evaluated matches on their storytelling quality and in-ring execution while tracking how current matches position wrestlers for future programs. The references to "pure cinema" for multiple matches indicated a high standard being met in terms of match construction and dramatic presentation. The host demonstrated particular interest in how Saturday Night Main Event showcased both current storylines and talent who would soon transition to more prominent roster positions.

    Episode 9 - Inside The Square: The Wrestling Podcast

    # Inside The Square: The Wrestling Podcast - Episode 9 Analysis

    This episode covers several significant storylines and matches from All Elite Wrestling, focusing on championship reigns, historic feuds, and emerging talents in the promotion.

    ## Kazuchika Okada's Championship Run

    The episode opens with discussion of Kazuchika Okada's remarkable current run in AEW. He is approximately two years into his championship reign, holding three championship belts simultaneously. While this accomplishment is noteworthy and demonstrates his dominance in the promotion, the podcast notes that he is expected to relinquish all championship belts in the near future. This lengthy reign has established Okada as a central figure in AEW's championship picture.

    ## The Hangman Adam Page and Swerve Strickland Rivalry

    The second major topic addresses what the podcast considers one of the greatest feuds in AEW history. Hangman Adam Page and Swerve Strickland have delivered exceptional matches, including a Texas Death Match and a Lights Out Steel Cage Match. The podcast emphasizes that their in-ring chemistry and storytelling were at peak levels during their initial series of matches. The hosts argue that AEW should revisit this feud, as the quality of their previous encounters warrants another chapter in their rivalry.

    ## Kyle Fletcher versus Kevin Knight

    The third segment discusses a standout match on AEW programming between Kyle Fletcher and Kevin Knight. Both wrestlers are identified as future main event stars for the promotion, demonstrating strong in-ring abilities and storytelling capabilities. The podcast highlights their potential to become significant performers in AEW's future landscape.

    ## Ricochet and Ace Austin for the AEW National Championship

    The fourth topic examines a match that the podcast believes deserves more attention. Ricochet faced Ace Austin for the AEW National Championship in what is described as an overlooked bout. The match quality was exceptional, and the podcast suggests AEW should present a rematch. The discussion notes that WWE did not adequately promote Ricochet based on his height and physical size, whereas AEW is providing significant opportunities for both Ace Austin and Ricochet, allowing them to showcase their abilities on a major platform.

    ## Eddie Kingston and Samoa Joe

    The final segment previews an anticipated match between Eddie Kingston and Samoa Joe. While the podcast expects this to be an excellent match, there is concern about the creative direction. Specifically, the use of Hook as a storyline element may negatively impact Eddie Kingston's character presentation. The podcast worries that this booking decision will position Kingston as a heel who feeds his family, which may not be the most effective use of his character in this particular feud.

    The episode provides comprehensive coverage of current AEW storylines while offering critical analysis of booking decisions and match quality across the promotion's programming.

    Dec 8 2025
    I can see your handwritten notes for Episode 8 of "Inside The Square: The Wrestling Podcast." These notes cover several significant wrestling storylines and matches. Let me organize and clarify what you've documented:

    **Episode 8 Content Summary**

    The episode appears to cover multiple major wrestling storylines across different promotions. The first segment discusses a parking lot brawl between Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre, with predictions that this confrontation will lead to a No Contest at Saturday Night Main Event, ultimately setting up Drew McIntyre to challenge Claymore and defeat both Oba Femi and Cody Rhodes.

    The second segment focuses on Friday Night Smackdown, where Ilja Dragunov defeated Carmelo Hayes to retain the United States Championship in what was described as a highly competitive match. However, Tommaso Ciampa interfered afterward, costing Carmelo Hayes the United States Championship in his confrontation with Ilja Dragunov.

    The third segment previews Bayley versus Sol Ruca at Saturday Night Main Event, which is anticipated to be an exceptional match. The fourth segment reviews Friday Night Smackdown, where Jade Cargill dominated Alba Fyre in a one-sided contest.

    The fifth segment highlights Gunther's victory over LA Knight on Friday Night Smackdown in an outstanding main event match, noting that Gunther forced LA Knight to tap out, which was described as unprecedented since LA Knight had never been seen tapping out before.

    The sixth segment discusses a chaotic brawl between The MFTs and The Wyatt 6 on Friday Night Smackdown, with positive commentary that the storyline buildup is improving significantly.

    The final segment predicts that Oba Femi will challenge Cody Rhodes at Saturday Night Main Event, suggesting he will provoke Cody Rhodes during a promo segment when Cody joins the main roster imminently.

    # Inside The Square: The Wrestling Podcast - Episode 7

    ## My Favorite WWE Moments in 2025

    ### 1. Naomi's Women's World Championship Victory at WWE Evolution

    The standout moment from WWE in 2025 occurred when Naomi captured the Women's World Championship at WWE Evolution. The match became significantly more dramatic when Naomi made the strategic decision to cash in her Money in the Bank contract, transforming the bout into a triple threat match. Naomi demonstrated her championship caliber by systematically eliminating both opponents, first defeating Rhea Ripley before overcoming Iyo Sky through the innovative Split Legged Moonsault maneuver. The culmination came when Naomi secured the decisive pinfall victory over Iyo Sky, claiming the 1-2-3 count and establishing herself as the Women's World Champion.

    ### 2. Jade Cargill's Championship Victory at Saturday Night's Main Event

    Jade Cargill achieved championship success by winning the Women's Championship at Saturday Night's Main Event, defeating Tiffany Stratton in what proved to be a one-sided affair. The match showcased WWE's continued development of the Hall of Pain storyline featuring Jade Cargill throughout 2026, demonstrating the company's commitment to building compelling narratives around their championship pictures.

    ### 3. The WrestleMania 41 Main Event Triple Threat Match

    WrestleMania 41 Night One delivered an exceptional main event featuring Roman Reigns versus Seth Rollins versus CM Punk, which stands as one of the finest triple threat matches in wrestling history. However, the most compelling aspect of the evening came from the unexpected turn when Paul Heyman simultaneously betrayed both CM Punk and Roman Reigns, aligning himself with Seth Rollins in a shocking swerve that has significant implications for future storylines.

    ### 4. Jacob Fatu's Betrayal of Solo Sikoa at Money in the Bank

    During the Money in the Bank event, Jacob Fatu executed a pivotal betrayal by turning on Solo Sikoa, leading to what has been dubbed the "Jacob Fatu Right Now" era. While Fatu is positioning himself as a future WrestleMania main event talent, he has already secured his place in the main event scene presently. The timing of this character shift appears particularly astute, as Jacob Fatu has successfully connected with both the live crowds and the broader WWE fanbase.

    ### 5. Rhea Ripley's Megastar Status

    Rhea Ripley has firmly established herself as a megastar within WWE, evidenced by the passionate fan support she consistently receives. Her popularity has positioned her as one of the premier women's wrestlers in WWE history. The trajectory suggests that Rhea Ripley will likely headline multiple WrestleMania events in the near future, cementing her legacy as one of the most accomplished performers in the current WWE women's division.

    Dec 4 2025
    # Inside The Square: The Wrestling Podcast - Episode 6 Summary

    This episode covers several significant developments in professional wrestling, focusing primarily on WWE programming and speculation about upcoming storylines.

    **CM Punk vs. Bron Breakker Championship Match**

    The host anticipates that Bron Breakker will challenge CM Punk for the World Heavyweight Championship on January 5th, with Austin Theory potentially playing a role in Punk losing the title by January 5th on Monday Night Raw. This prediction stems from what the host describes as an exceptionally strong promotional segment that Bron Breakker delivered on Monday Night Raw, which the host believes will lead to an compelling match.

    **Jey Uso's Status in WWE**

    La Knight defeated Jey Uso in what is described as a high-quality match on Monday Night Raw. However, the host expresses concern about Jey Uso's trajectory following the match, questioning whether WWE is positioning him correctly as a main event talent moving forward.

    **Tag Team Championship Scene**

    Dragon Lee and AJ Styles faced The New Day for the Tag Team Championships on Monday Night Raw in what is characterized as an outstanding match. The host praises the performance of both teams while suggesting that Grayson Waller should be positioned to win the Intercontinental Championship, indicating confidence in WWE's development of Waller as a future World Heavyweight Champion.

    **Women's Division Chaos**

    The main event featured Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky versus Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss in a match that concluded without a clear resolution. The segment devolved when Asuka and Kairi Sane attacked both teams, followed by Bayley and Lyra Valkyria attempting to restore order. Ultimately, The Judgement Day faction attacked all participants, standing tall as Monday Night Raw concluded.

    **WWE's 2025 Outlook**

    The host reflects enthusiastically on WWE's current momentum, noting the promotion now features CM Punk as World Heavyweight Champion and Bron Breakker as a prominent main event performer. Additionally, the host mentions upcoming roster additions including Trick Williams and Oba Femi joining the main roster, Je'Von Evans appearing on Friday Night Smackdown and Monday Night Raw, and NXT programming continuing to develop talent.
