John Cena's career should end by taking "Hollywood" Jack the Jobber to the Italian restaurant for a date with his laptop; would be a phenomenal way to cap off his career, giving the Cultaholics what we want (to happen)!
Would love to know what joke they cut that Maffew most likely made at 1:22:52. Adam goes red and Tom looks at Joel and marks the moment it happened with his eyes 😂😂
Anybody got a problem with Tom Campbell can fight me bc this man is an amazing personality and Nicolas Cage and I decided to protect national treasures, not once but twice
Not to steal Keith Lee's gimmick and "um ackshuaLee" you guys, but the 'Yakuza' series of games are switching over to 'Like A Dragon' as the official title because that's what it always was in Japan, and the events of Yakuza: Like A Dragon actually dissolve the two major clans the series has been about so it makes all the sense in the world to scrap the Yakuza branding now.
First of all, Tom don't listen to that dude who doesn't want you on the Podcast, you are wonderful when you're on! I do have to comment though about something Maffew has been saying about the stories in AEW. For me, I realized that what I want from a "Wrestling" show, is interesting characters having good wrestling matches, and if a story comes from it, great. AEW gives me that, over "What's the story?" Stories come in the ring, or if a match has something special, you build a story from it. As Adam said, you get things sprinkled in over a long period, and it rewards you for watching, and isn't that what every show on TV goes for.
Woo, we got four hours with Podcitti and Tom "Awesome" Campbell! That's another four hour window to take his laptop on that date to the Italian restaurant.
We got a National Record of Achievement too. It's good to look back on because it has comments from all of your teachers wishing you well and predicting what your grades could be.
Ghost Watch deserves to go into the HOF because it scared my sister so badly that she couldn’t sleep in the dark until she was In her teens (she would have been 9 when it was broadcast). 😂
The one negative of Jack not being on the pod this week is that we don't get to see him react to The Outrunners' match with Darby/Sting; what a moment in the latter team's career!
I remember Batista turning up on The Paul O'Grady Show which used to be on Channel 4 at tea time in my house and I'm pretty sure he shows up in his gear and sit nexts to a small child whilst they ask him questions. He does his entrance and everything.
The thing about Nikki Cross, is that if she's in a trance, don't do a move where she has to protect herself. If we're supposed to believe that she is non responsive, don't do a spot where she has to grab the ropes to ease her landing.
I saw Ghostwatch when it first aired. I was about five and it scared the fuck out of me. Also the fact that Tom is a DSP 'tractor is amazing and partly vindicates the fact I have the misfortune of knowing who DSP is.
Yes. It would have been bad having Joe lose to Keith. Joe is the aging gunslinger who gets up and leaves his comfortable ranch to face the young guns that are coming for him, not because he already lost, but because he needs to prove to himself that he's still got it. Joe is the samurai who looks around his estate at his servants and his geishas and thinks to himself that he's gotten too comfortable so he puts on his armor, picks up his sword, leaves home and goes out into the world to go regain his warrior's edge. Joe is the king of a small little hill who looked around himself and realized that his little title had him too complacent, so he gets up and leaves his comfortable little hill to go out and rekindle the fire that got him to where he was in the first place. This is a trope that has been present in storytelling throughout human history. The whole point is that Joe has decided himself to give up what was making him too comfortable to force himself to regain his edge. That point is utterly ruined if Joe loses to Keith.
Wrestling isn't hot right now. The indicator of "hot right now" is appearances on Saturday night live, the Simpsons, South Park, late night, youtube shows. If it doesn't bleed into mainstream, it's not hot right now.
There are definitely better ways to handle the ROH TV Title and Joe, but we all complain when someone, off of a big loss, gets a higher tier title shot. I love Keith, but if the idea and the story is Joe vs MJF, having Keith go over on Joe right before that happens is bad booking as well.
2:40:07 - I genuinely think the Bucks have embraced that their role is to attract a younger audience who *do* care about friendships. Their target demographic is the same as Orange & Darby's, hence the brightly coloured entrance, the streamers, the Jordans, the OTT temper tantrums, all of it. There'll be a contingent of adult babies who also take it verbatum, but it's not for us, surely. We're there for the in-ring spectacle they put on and can still appreciate their talents, but if you think about all other wrestlers on the roster, the Bucks are one of the few acts targetting teens. The recent TV direction focused on those young girls at ringside and everything. That pretty much confirmed it for me.
Hot take but i think a returning ziggler should be the guy to dethrone Gunther before he go’s to the world title after a few great matches and dolph would start the long road to being the record holder for most IC title wins
Gunther moving to world title dolph could win either the world universal or even the wwe if they bring it back but i agree mid card heel face up and down the mid card i think he should be a “tweener” though much as i hate the term. A grizzled experienced show off with a return push and the right booking would be so good.
I understand Toms/everyone’s frustration with the state of the ROH TV title (I share some of the same frustrations don’t get me wrong), however a) let’s stop pretending any of us actually watch ROH lol (I only watch the PPVs personally and keep up with the women’s division) and b) Keith lee going over Samoa Joe before he goes for the AEW world championship really does not make any sense. I do think they could of done it way differently for sure, 100%, even in a multi man match where Joe doesn’t eat a pin and looks strong. Heck, maybe even “the devil” costs him his title. ANYTHING other than Joe basically crapping over the belt. But in no scenario do I think Lee should of gotten the win over Joe, imo
I love Tom and im normally really excited to see him on the pod. But as wired as it sounds, his negivity during the 'this week in wrestling ' segment really dragged the pod down and made it feel like a slog. Genuine shame, i love Tom
I also have my National Record of Achievement as I'm that old! Infact I can go one better, I bet none of the lads did a Youth Training Scheme, YTS for short, also for You're The Slave as the wage then was £29.50 a week, plus your travel expenses over £3, this was back in 1992! GEEZ I'm old! 😆
Oh my god Adam and Tom where laughing so much during this podcast. They couldn’t get through a segment without laughing. Man they should be the perment co-hosts.
John Cena's career should end by taking "Hollywood" Jack the Jobber to the Italian restaurant for a date with his laptop; would be a phenomenal way to cap off his career, giving the Cultaholics what we want (to happen)!
And it would still count as Jack going by himself because no one will see him......sorry. 😆
@@mikeromo5008 lmao!
Would love to know what joke they cut that Maffew most likely made at 1:22:52. Adam goes red and Tom looks at Joel and marks the moment it happened with his eyes 😂😂
Scrummy eyes for that observation. I guess we will never know.
You can't spell
Up the Cultaholic podcast! Happy weekend everyone.
Adam and Tom on the podcast!!!! I really needed this this week
Anybody got a problem with Tom Campbell can fight me bc this man is an amazing personality and Nicolas Cage and I decided to protect national treasures, not once but twice
Maffew's rant about Logan Paul was the best 😂
Not to steal Keith Lee's gimmick and "um ackshuaLee" you guys, but the 'Yakuza' series of games are switching over to 'Like A Dragon' as the official title because that's what it always was in Japan, and the events of Yakuza: Like A Dragon actually dissolve the two major clans the series has been about so it makes all the sense in the world to scrap the Yakuza branding now.
I didn’t know that, really interesting
Wasn’t expecting a Disco Elysium reference today, but here we are. Cheers mates.
Dad Campbell and George Miz would be UNSTOPPABLE
Genuinely excited about TNAs future
Maffew, Tom and Adam. This is gonna be fun one!
A rare Maffew, Adam and Tom episode! Amazing!
Is that TNA's own Mr. Tom Campbell!?
Tom Campbell is in control and maffew keeps rolling his eyes! Wow this a classic Cultaholic wrestling podcast!!!
Tom’s Durham idea is now one of my favorite wrestling storylines of all time, whether it happened or not. Brilliant
This Cultaholic trio is awesome lmao
That Simpsons/Wrestling Reese's Pieces was one of the best I've seen on this podcast! Right in my wheelhouse! 😂
Up the Cultaholic Podcast!
I see Maffew, Tom and Pacitti together, i know this is going to be total carnage.
Maffew showing some real good taste with Todd in the Shadows in his feed!
WE DEMAND MORE TOM!
First of all, Tom don't listen to that dude who doesn't want you on the Podcast, you are wonderful when you're on!

Maybe the guy was Tom's dad on an alt account? "Boo, stop chatting bollocks, beardy!"
I love Tom on the podcast. It's what we want to happen!
Gotta love Tom. Absolute positivity and energy in a human form. His laugh is so contagious
Woo, we got four hours with Podcitti and Tom "Awesome" Campbell! That's another four hour window to take his laptop on that date to the Italian restaurant.
I never expected to relate to Tom and Adam through the lolcows in my watch history but here we are 😂
We got a National Record of Achievement too. It's good to look back on because it has comments from all of your teachers wishing you well and predicting what your grades could be.
I was just taking a sip of water when Maffew said "Ruthless Apathy" That was a mistake!!!
Love Ross and Jack, but it's always nice having a bit of extra chaos
Tom is a delight
Pacitti and Tom-the two best laughs in the place
Lol I'm old enough to remember the National Record of Achievement folder 🤣🤣🤣
Ghost Watch deserves to go into the HOF because it scared my sister so badly that she couldn’t sleep in the dark until she was In her teens (she would have been 9 when it was broadcast). 😂
I try and spread this podcast out over my week … when it’s finished I’m a lost soul.
sometimes i'll watch the whole thing on the friday and i'm just confused with what to do for another seven days
Ross isnt here: 😢😢
Adam and Tom are the replacements: 😁😁😁
Jack absolutely humiliated there 😅
Ive soured on Jack the last few months
the episode i’ve finally been waiting for
Red Velvet and sky blue make... Green. Sounds about right.
The one negative of Jack not being on the pod this week is that we don't get to see him react to The Outrunners' match with Darby/Sting; what a moment in the latter team's career!
Huge shout out to Tom for mentioning Meat Canyon aka Papa Meat. Fantastic channel(s) that deserve all the attention
Woo! Tom Episode!
3:16 Yugioh Abridged is still going on, episodes usually get released twice a year
Thought we could finally get the fabled 5 hour podcast with adam and tom today lol, up the cultaholic
This is the first episode that I’ve finished in months.
Best wrestling cameo: Bushwhackers in Family Matters.
I remember Batista turning up on The Paul O'Grady Show which used to be on Channel 4 at tea time in my house and I'm pretty sure he shows up in his gear and sit nexts to a small child whilst they ask him questions. He does his entrance and everything.
In hospital at minute
Thanks for cheering me up
I was today’s years old when I released that words are hard for Maffew lol
The thing about Nikki Cross, is that if she's in a trance, don't do a move where she has to protect herself. If we're supposed to believe that she is non responsive, don't do a spot where she has to grab the ropes to ease her landing.
Up the Diddlers! (In the Cultaholic Wrestling Podcast sense of the word)
3.50hrs w/ Pacciti ✌️aaaaaThankewwwwww✌️
I saw Ghostwatch when it first aired. I was about five and it scared the fuck out of me.
Also the fact that Tom is a DSP 'tractor is amazing and partly vindicates the fact I have the misfortune of knowing who DSP is.

Concerning Nikki, I really think/hope that all this will come together with Alexa Bliss' and Bo Dallas' return. P.S.: I love, love, love Tom's NXT!
One last match with Randy Orton at WrestleMania, main event slot optional. That's how Cena's career should end.
Was not expecting a meat canyon reference on the pod today, especially not wabbit season specifically
10 minutes in and they have me laughing like an idiot, gonna be a good one
Can't believe you managed to get Jim on the podcast
Love these two
Not me swapping over from the podcast feed so I can see the three GTA characters 😂
Eagerly awaiting the Cultaholic Ghostwatch spinoff channel
“Book it you cowards”
The power kept going out at Tom's engagement party? Did he have it at the Grovesner?
An answer for the 'Wrestler in other media' mail bag segment, LA Knight in B99 in a cutaway as someone from Terry's gym
Tom lambasts Dynamite but also tells people to give current Simpsons shows a watch as they're really good?
This man's tastes are all over the place!
I love how if someone cut out alllll the wrestling talk from these podcasts they would still be girthy sized. 😂👏
1:25:00 it's because Bob failed to make Darren young great again
Wrestling isn't hot right now. The indicator of "hot right now" is appearances on Saturday night live, the Simpsons, South Park, late night, youtube shows. If it doesn't bleed into mainstream, it's not hot right now.
The Clinton Joke worked for me.
Am I the only one who wants one last Cena vs Orton match?
Yes boys!!
You missed a trick saying that Boa is recruiting people to their army. They’re a Boa conscripter
Pacitti should check out fishtank if he likes big brother 👀 lmao
Slow news day but forget that one of the most exciting prospects Giulia could potentially be heading to WWE.
Without streaming, downloading and DVRs the ratings would be tripled.
There are definitely better ways to handle the ROH TV Title and Joe, but we all complain when someone, off of a big loss, gets a higher tier title shot. I love Keith, but if the idea and the story is Joe vs MJF, having Keith go over on Joe right before that happens is bad booking as well.
Who’s your main in Nick All Stars 2?
theres an episode of britain's toughest villages, where a kid is born on the toilet.. it's worth a watch 😂
Oh Tom, I admire your persistence, but you'll never make Maffew corpse like a Trippy Box Heeeed, carry it on though matey.
2:40:07 - I genuinely think the Bucks have embraced that their role is to attract a younger audience who *do* care about friendships. Their target demographic is the same as Orange & Darby's, hence the brightly coloured entrance, the streamers, the Jordans, the OTT temper tantrums, all of it.

We're there for the in-ring spectacle they put on and can still appreciate their talents, but if you think about all other wrestlers on the roster, the Bucks are one of the few acts targetting teens.

Leader! Leader! Leader!
I need Sane vs Not War Machine in a longboat v. pirate ship match.
Where does one get one of those Hot Tag coffee mugs?
Hot take but i think a returning ziggler should be the guy to dethrone Gunther before he go’s to the world title after a few great matches and dolph would start the long road to being the record holder for most IC title wins
Gunther moving to world title dolph could win either the world universal or even the wwe if they bring it back but i agree mid card heel face up and down the mid card i think he should be a “tweener” though much as i hate the term. A grizzled experienced show off with a return push and the right booking would be so good.
Pretty sure Dolph had his foot out of the door before he was released. He's going to AEW with his brother, no doubt.
Big up giant baba in yojimbo, my answer for the mailbag question. Absloyte classic
I understand Toms/everyone’s frustration with the state of the ROH TV title (I share some of the same frustrations don’t get me wrong),

I love Tom and im normally really excited to see him on the pod. But as wired as it sounds, his negivity during the 'this week in wrestling ' segment really dragged the pod down and made it feel like a slog. Genuine shame, i love Tom
Wrestling Bios shout out 🤘
It shouldn't
Like the Rock the Door should always be open when he wants to come back 😎👍
John Cena only has one way of retiring. A 1 v 1 match against Randy Orton. This generation's end of an era match.
Surely its Otis vs Homer?
Pirate Paul would win because the sea captain has 2 glass eyes!
I also have my National Record of Achievement as I'm that old! Infact I can go one better, I bet none of the lads did a Youth Training Scheme, YTS for short, also for You're The Slave as the wage then was £29.50 a week, plus your travel expenses over £3, this was back in 1992! GEEZ I'm old! 😆
So Tom hates AEW, but enjoys 2023 Simpsons.
Love you Tom, you're a lot of fun, but I cannot trust your opinions.
I love whenever Jack is gone Maffew will take jabs at him and when Maffew is gone Jack will take jabs at him.
Book the match you cowards
Cambell for wembley clap clap clap clap clap
Roman Reigns matches are paint by numbers
Somewhere in the Ohio Valley, Jim Cornette suddenly clutched his chest, sensing a disturbance in the Kayfabe halfway across the world 😉
Why was it not cletus vs heath
Oh my god Adam and Tom where laughing so much during this podcast. They couldn’t get through a segment without laughing. Man they should be the perment co-hosts.
