On the latest episode of the Gentlemen's Wrestling Podcast, host Jesse Collings is joined by Adam Berger to play a game where they discuss 20 active AEW roster members and must choose to eliminate eight of them from AEW. The guys discuss the value of creating more TV time for other wrestlers, the history of talent shifting between different promotions, and some stars who have peaked in AEW and may improve if they move on to another promotion.

Now that we are past Forbidden Door, All Elite Wrestling is in the process of building up the card for All In. The show might not have the same cache as the first rendition at Wembley Stadium last year, but the card looks significantly stronger. The card is led by the two big title matches, as Bryan Danielson and Mariah May will take on Swerve Strickland and Timeless Toni Storm after winning the Owen Hart Memorial Tournament.

May's turn is one of the more memorable turns in recent memory and Storm's selling of the vicious attack took it to another level. Hosts Tyler and Fred discuss that and more from a very newsworthy Dynamite.

Please like, share, and subscribe so Forbidden Door is a great show like its predecessors.
