This was one of the bleakest weeks in wrestling history. WWE announced sweeping layoffs that affected tons of people behind the scenes, including locker room favorites and people that were involved in WrestleMania. It’s hard to even know where to begin but, like most of you are, we’re just really sad.

We’ll be bummed for a bit and express hope that they’ll be set for greener pastures once the world returns to a friendlier space for international wrestling.

As if that wasn’t enough we’ll also discuss the career of Howard Finkel who unfortunately died a few days ago.

And, as hard as it is, we’ll try to have some laughs at the regular silliness that happened on the wrestling TV shows this week.

Hosted by Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford and Lindsey Kelk.

Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.

The loneliest WrestleMania in history has officially wrapped up. It was a setting unlike any other in history, with a grand total of zero spectators and truly bizarre taped segments in the place of vignettes.

How were the matches affected by the lack of an audience? Were the experimental bits of a show a hit? And which title changes were we in favor of and which did we disapprove? There’s a lot to get into, but luckily it’s not too big for one episode!

It’s the final week before WrestleMania! And despite everything, WWE has set up a match that we’re at least cautiously interested in. Without being able to use a live audience, they have leaned on in-ring and pre-taped promos to carry the weight of the build. How successful were they? We’ll discuss!

Plus, we’ll still get into what AEW is up in the absence of their audience and a massive PPV to build to. That includes the great things like Brit Baker’s shoe… and the not so great things like antiquated squash matches.

The Three Count
