Episode 389: WWE Is Being Spiteful
Thursday, 17 September, 2026

On this episode of Grilling JR, Jim Ross and Conrad Thompson look ahead to a sold out AEW All Out in Chicago, and discuss WWE's decision to counter-program the event with Worlds Collide in the same city on the same day. JR explains why he believes the move feels spiteful. JR also honors the lives and legacies of Rebel and Andy "The Butcher" Williams, praises PAC as one of the most dependable performers in professional wrestling, and reacts to Kurt Angle's thoughts on Kenny Omega and Will Ospreay. Plus, JR discusses the importance of storytelling at the commentary desk, whether Sami Zayn can truly headline WrestleMania, Sean Waltman's role in WWE's ID program, Bill Dundee's success in Mid-South Wrestling, and much more!
