Taking Liberties Pro Wrestling Podcast

Welcome back! This week's iMPACT! was the go home show to Victory Road 2006, so look forward to that review next week. We also put a pin in Tiger Mask W for the immediate future as we take a look at Tiger Mask vs Yellow Devil himself... Check us out!

Welcome back! This week the three of us took little to no notes and this show greatly benefitted for it. As disorganized as our review of RAW is, it's a hoot and a holler for certain. Check us out! 

Welcome back! TNA went by pretty fast this week which means it was a decent show. Tiger Mask was badass as always and we continue to enjoy reviewing peak wrestling anime. Check us out!

Welcome back! TNA was a show as ever this week but it certainly wasn't awful. This episode may be crucial evidence in the case of whether or not iMPACT was a better product than WWE. Definitely not. Check us out! 

Welcome back! Slammiversary is upon us and it's just another TNA PPV extravaganza. Total Divas was entertaining albeit frustrating to watch but that's what's appealing about it right? We continue to truck along towards the 100 episode milestone and it approaches faster and faster. Pretty scary stuff. Check us out!

Welcome back! iMPACT! this week was the go home to Slammiversary. We can all wait. Tiger Mask delivers like it does every time we review an episode. We even suggest you check it out for yourself. Check us out!

Welcome back! We get the illustrious opportunity to review yet another episode of mid-PACT where not a whole lot of shit happens, but we will see Kevin Nash debut in the X-Division next week, and that is pretty cool. We also take a look at some old AWA where Tom Zenk looks like a beast and Greg Gagne looks like a geek. Check us out!

Welcome back! TNA was average at best this week, nothing special. Steve Austin and Sami Zayn on the other hand have some immaculate chemistry and it was a pleasure for us boys to enjoy an hour and a half of those two GOATs. Check us out!

Welcome back! TNA was remarkably less boring than usual but that says nothing great about the shows actual quality. Tiger Mask is super sick as always and this episode builds up a big match for our next review. Check us out!

Welcome back! TNA continues to provide us reasons to hate reviewing their shows. I just wish they'd try harder with the roster they have. Tiger Mask was really cool as always and this week built up a cool match for the next episode. Check us out!

Welcome back! This time around we get to take a look at a relatively boring TNA ppv, my goodness, I don't know why they insist of filling the whole three hours. It's abysmal. On another note: we take a look at some mind games played by the Rock which results in the McMahon's losing their sanity on this episode of SmackDown! Check us out!

Welcome back! This episode we actually see a fairly decent episode of TNA this week, except sike, it was a go-home show so it was trash. However, we did give TNA the props they were due, but you'll have to listen to find out where. We also have a pretty good round of the TL Would You Rather Go Fuck Yourself or Something or Other, Yeah segment, and we take another look into the story of Tiger Mask. Check us out!

Welcome back! If you like breasts, this episode is for you. Between TNA and Total Divas us boys were attacked and defiled by the sheer amount of booba in this week's reviews. Also, new segment debuts AND Nikki Bella isn't the fat twin! Check us out!

Welcome back! This week we have a guest return as our boy Nick comes back to the show and you get to hear this four-man booth just absolutely wreck TNA's shit. Seriously, who are they making this show for? We also review the legendary episode of Raw where CM Punk bitches himself for John Cena and JBL is poopy. Check us out!

Welcome back! This PPV wasn't as terrible and offensive as normal (barring comments from Brother Ray).  Tiger Mask is as cool as ever and New Japan finally got some of their heat back in this one. Check us out! 

Welcome back! Thank you for joining us again this week where we get a chance to talk about a very rather abysmal viewing of iMPACT! It was truly disappointing, and two-thirds of us had forgotten that it was supposed to be a go-home show so I think that should say plenty. We also get a chance to talk about some old wrestling that we tend to enjoy. Nice and simple. And for a little extra listening, you get to hear Andrew and Marquis talk about their start of pro wrestling training. Check us out!

Welcome back! This week we get a chance to talk about the fact that iMPACT! honestly wasn't that bad of a show, which means, they've fucked it. It's all downhill from here. Christian is a piece a shit, Jeff Jarrett is scared of Sting, Samoa Joe vs Christopher Daniels definitely happened, and we got some false advertising. We also get a chance to share our rather candid thoughts on one CM Punk and the goings on of AEW. It's... not looking great. Thankfully, Tiger Mask was sick as always and we move ever closer to Naoto doing the damn thing. Check us out! 

Welcome back! On this episode we get a chance to talk about a rather mid episode of iMPACT! where we get to see a rematch from last year's Lockdown with Abyss vs AJ Styles, we see commentary slightly dick on Simon Diamond, we get SUPERMEX, and something about Slick Johnson and some new TNA management bullshit. Oh, and Sting cuts a long as promo too. On to better news, we get to see the boy, our savior, our God-King Cody Rhodes have a sit-down with Steve Austin and goddamn, pal, I'm biting my lip just thinking about it. Seriously, though, it was a really good episode in which they talk about the Rhodes family being poor at one point, Cody hating Stardust, and AEW. Which we bury. Check us out!

Welcome back! We're all incredibly sorry about the wait. This weeks episode isn't incredibly long but I hope you find amusement in our rants about AEW and CM Punk. Check us out!

Welcome back! If there was ever an episode with polar opposite reviews its certainly this one. TNA was possibly an actual offense on all of our senses and Tiger Mask blew us away with how cool an anime it really is. Check us out!

Welcome back! We reviewed another middling episode of iMPACT! this week where again, for some reason, Norman Smiley was there but we all like Norman here so it’s fine. Also, this Abyss “push” that’s allegedly going on sucks several bags of ass and we can only imagine how they’re gonna fuck it up more. We also reviewed a classic show from the infancy of our boy Max’s wrestling fandom in which Paige debuted, we saw the spitting images and antithesis of Vince’s wet dreams, and Daniel Bryan is super over. Check us out!

Welcome back! This review of TNA Destination X 2006 went by much MUCH faster than we anticipated. As it turns out, this show wasn't incredibly inspired. Tiger Mask on the other hand was beyond insane and we had a great time talking about it. Check us out!

Welcome back! This week Marquis chose the Main Event Review and he was hellbent to torture myself and Max. If you enjoy kayfabe shattering crash wrestling television, this may be the episode for you. Check us out!

Welcome back! This week on the show we review an episode of iMPACT! so forgettable that had ⅔ of us not taken notes this week then there probably may not have been a review for that show. At the very least not a comprehensible one. However, we were saved! Monday Night Raw came through when we needed it most and my goodness was it a show. Chris Jericho vs. Big Show, Santino Marella hating boobies, Playboy models, and loving Subway, and we also get the glorious John Cena and Randy Orton vs. the "entire" Raw roster. Check us out!

Welcome back! The Road to Episode 100 begins this week! Consider this the Royal Rumble if you know what I mean ;)

Check us out!

We reviewed TNA and porn. Check us out!

Welcome back! This time around you all get to hear us dissect Against All Odds, and the show was about just as terrible as a dissection so I'd say it works out pretty well. We get Abyss vs Rhino (AGAIN), another triple threat between Daniels, Styles, and Joe, and we get a new world champion! But onto something that actually interested us, this AWA show was great. Shawn Michaels, Curt Hennig, Baron Von Raschke, Afa, Jerry Lawler, and many more big names were on this show and goddammit pal, was it some good ol' fashion pro wrasslin'. They really don't do wrestling like they used to. But you can hear us gush about that yourselves. Check us out!

Welcome back! This week we got to review an episode of iMPACT! that wasn't the worst episode of wrestling that we've ever seen this week, so I'd say it was a pretty good episode given. Granted, I can't remember jack shit about it, but honestly, does it even matter? We also have to watch a PPV soon which I'm very much not looking forward to. Anyway. we also got to review some puroresu this week and it was sick. Pretty good card from top to bottom and I'm glad that we decided to watch, and thank you Drew for the recommendation. All that and more this week, check us out!

Welcome back! On this rendition of TL we get to hear the plot thicken a bit. And by that, obviously I mean that conspiracy lore that we've been working on because goodness knows that TNA aren't gonna come up with something themselves to keep us entertained. We also check out an old episode of Smoky Mountain, and I gotta say, I (Marquis) really, really enjoyed the show. Probably top 10 things that I've enjoyed as a watch because sometimes I just like some good old fashioned wrasslin', but I would understand if that sort of thing isn't everyone's cup of tea. Oh, and New Jack. Check us out!

Welcome back! On this rousing episode of TL, we got a chance to review, and unfortunately, subject our homie to a rather mundane and nonsensical episode of iMPACT! Not to say that the overwhelming majority of shows from this time aren't that, but this one was especially egregious. But we're reviewing another episode of UWF so you all know that can only mean one thing, and that one thing is that our boy Thief is back! Join us as we recant the tale and tribulations of gangstas, bitches, tricks, marks, titties, ass, money, and wrestling. Check us out!

Welcome back! This week we review another run-of-the-mill episode of iMPACT! with entirely too many tag matches and so much shit that just doesn't make sense. Also, Christian Cage won't let you forget that he's got homophobic tendencies and is just an asshole for no reason despite being the second biggest babyface in the company. At the behest of our boy Max we also got to see John Cena vs Bryan Danielson from that match, and ya know what? It was better than it probably should've been and they did way more stuff than expected. Earnest "The Cat" Miller is also a menace that was truly just chatting shit. Anyway, check us out!

Welcome back! This go around the pay-per-view wasn't completely terrible. This one is for anyone who wants us to have ANYTHING positive to say about TNA in 2006. Total Divas also returns with its usual chicanery. Check us out!

A short one this week, the go home show to Final Resolution 2006 wasn't incredibly noteworthy. We also checked out a cool match on ECW, the beginning of a storied championship reign. Check us out!

Welcome back! In this edition, you all will get to hear us talk about how ass TNA is. I know that at this point we sound like a broken record, but no seriously, this shit sucks and is not good television. Everyone that has told you that these are the glory years of this company either has rose-tinted glasses on or is a straight-up liar. On another note: we got to see Los Guerreros beat the World's Greatest Tag Team as well as review the incredible Brock Lesnar vs Kurt Angle ironman match for the WWE Undisputed Championship. Check us out!

The second season of the Taking Liberties Pro Wrestling Podcast has officially begun. Thank you all so much for your support on this show, without ya'll we probably would've given up on this a long time ago! The Raw we review on this show is also super weird and awesome so give it a listen! - Andrew

Welcome back! Boy, oh boy do you we have a show for you mighty fine folks this time around. First thing's first: iMPACT was so ass. It simply was not an enjoyable watch this week and we're really hoping that things pick up in 2006. We also get a chance to review a very fucked up episode of WWE Raw from 2002 and it was honestly the best possible choice that could've been made for our final main event of season one. From voyeur Goldust to JR and King being perverts, to Tommy Dreamer being a fucking weirdo, it was all we could've asked for. Also, on our last show of season one, we have decided to do the first-ever Liberty Awards! Find out who won these completely arbitrary prizes that we came up with the day before. Check it out!

Welcome back! This time around we watched a fucking awful episode of TNA. Like, this episode genuinely might be one of the least interesting, nothing happening episode of iMPACT since we started. HOWEVER, this episode of Total Divas is legendary. It's the wonderful episode with lumberjack Bryan Danielson and Eva not being able to dance for shit. Truly great stuff. Check us out!

Welcome back! As this is the episode following up a TNA PPV then you all better believe that we have a whole lot of shit to say about, however, if you think that those comments will be positive then I have no idea how you managed to make it to episode 57. Aside from a pretty shitty episode of iMPACT!, we get to hear but sexy dad cool guy Kevin Nash just go on about his career and his life, and it was honestly the most enjoyable hour and twenty-two minutes that any of the three of us could've been subject to, and goddamn did Kevin Nash just know how to pop the boys. Anyway, check it out!

Welcome back! On this wonderful episode of TL, you all get to hear us rant and rave about the final TNA PPV of the year, and holy shit has it been a journey just getting to this point in the goddamn year. We unfortunately had to sit through things like Abyss and Sabu in a barbed wire ring match and Monty Brown getting jabroni'd which is never fun. On a more positive note this episode of Heat kick so much ass. It was breakneck speed from the very beginning and damn was it an adventure. Check it out!

Welcome back! Not a whole lot to say this time 'round, honestly as TNA is as dreadful and boring as it usually is. But oh baby, we also get a chance to review Ultimate Muscle, which is the sequel to the legendary Kinnikuman series, and goddamn is it as camp and emphatic as you would think and it is lovely. Check it out!

Welcome back! Oh my goodness, folks. First thing's first: iMPACT! was very mid and of course, Christian said some weirdly questionable shit and he must be stopped. Seriously, what an absolute menace. Anyway, this time 'round we review a phenomenal, stupendous, staggering, spectacular, slick, stunningly, SHOCKING, and perfect display of absolute car crash, garbage trash television. It's incredible and you should all give it a listen. Check it out! 

Welcome back! Man, we are just constantly doing new things on this podcast all in service of you, the people. This week on the show we take a gander at a very mid episode of TNA, as well as an almost equally mid NXT episode that was at the request of our boy who is still learning the ropes, so he'll get a pass this time. But, hey! We finally managed to get back to reviewing Tiger Mask W, and boy oh boy were we all confused, but damn was it fun to watch. Check it out!

Welcome back! This week on a very forgettable episode of iMPACT!, we review another goddamn Abyss and Rhino match for some reason as well as the fact that Team 3D gets PISSED about 3b at the hands of the nefarious AMW. Christian is also a big weirdo who gets what he deserves. On another note, HUGE shoutout to Total Divas. We love that shit around here and you all get to hear us gush about the fact that we all used to love it. Check it out!

Welcome back! Yes, this is THAT Genesis and goddamn are we hoping that things finally turn around. We just honestly want some good content to watch. Also, seeing how this episode started it's clear that we won't make a dime on it, so PLEASE. We're begging! If there are any lapsed... money fans then please consider supporting us. Seriously though, always appreciated, never required, yada yada. This episode of NXT was sick and Asuka fucking rules. Check it out!

Welcome back! It's been a long journey so far and we've reached a major milestone with all of you wonderful listeners. We put ourselves through the paces with an over 3 hour podcast extravaganza for your listening pleasure. Thank you all, old heads and newbies for checking us out and staying with us to this point. We appreciate y'all more than you'll ever know. 

Welcome back! This week we review an episode of TNA that I honesty already don't remember, so that should more or less tell you the state of the show. Also, shoutout Taeler Hendrix! Anyway, we get a chance to revisit week five of the CWC, basically, Cedric Alexander vs Kota Ibushi and it's genuinely such a great match that I'd say if you haven't seen it then go ahead and seek it out. Check us out!

Welcome back! And holy shit, we actually enjoyed what we watched this week. These shows honestly weren't that bad, and dare I say that iMPACT was even better than SmackDown. Not too much better, but definitely better. However, because we know that TNA can put on great shows, it only makes us that much more upset when they have a shitty show, which is 9.8/10 times. Anyway, just check us out!

Welcome back! On this episode of the show, you get to hear how much we really didn't enjoy this PPV all that much, but boy oh boy does a whole lot of shit happen. Thankfully, I (Marquis) got to miss most of that nonsense, but you'll hear all about that. Oh, and since I forgot to mention in the episode, this TNA PPV did 35,000 buys and brought in $45,000. I'm almost certain that was all wasted on the pyro.

 So you see the writing on the walls. If you fine folks don't remember the date of that SmackDown episode then you'll soon remember.

Welcome back! On this rousing edition of TL, you all get to hear our honest thoughts on TNA, which more or less remain as static as they always are, we have a continuation to see who is the biggest geek ass nerd ass loser, I lose my voice during this show, so you'll start hearing some coughs in the back half of the episode, and Matt Hardy is SUPER ableist! Come check out on of hour longest episodes yet, and let us know what you think.
