Sit Down Shut Up Mark Out!

A Pro Wrestling Podcast (About Pro Wrestling)

Author: Sit Down Shut Up Mark Out!

Two obsessed wrestling fans 3000 miles apart talk AEW, New Japan, ROH, STARDOM and celebrate the great, the terrible, and the terribly great moments from all eras of professional wrestling, including WCW, WWF, ECW, UWF, JCP, ROH, TNA. It's a variety show with talk, listener participation, and "amusing" (to us) skits.We keep our conversation on the televised product more than rumors and backstage heresay. We don't care about ratings, we don't care about ticket sales. We don't watch current WWE (cool if you do, though)! We love, we laugh, we babble. Get in the ring with us! Hosted on Acast.

AEW’s Storytelling Formula Explained | Ospreay & Mox, Swerve Hunts Bandido, Darby’s Run
Episode 107
Saturday, 2 May, 2026

Why does AEW storytelling feel so different—and why does it actually work? Blade Daily goes solo to break down AEW’s unique approach to pro wrestling storytelling, from layered character arcs to non-linear narratives that avoid the predictable “good guy wins” formula. This episode dives into how AEW builds long-term stories that reward fans without feeling rushed, chaotic, or hot-shotted—blending modern wrestling with lessons pulled from wrestling history, classic storytelling, and evolving fan expectations.Plus: Will Ospreay training with Jon Moxley (and the spread of the infamous “tummy poke”), Swerve Strickland targeting Bandido, Darby Allin’s already standout title reign, and why the Women’s Tag Team Titles are starting to feel like one of the most important championships in the company. Wrestling analysis, debate, and fandom collide—covering everything from vintage wrestling psychology to the future of the business.Give us a 5-star review wherever you listen to podcasts and leave us a comment!
