·1 hr 27 min·5 clips
Travis explains why he'll always love Max Holiday, even if Holiday calls him a fat piece of shit.
The episode opens with a sponsor read for CarterComics.com and a note that the show might be shorter due to a lack of events over St. Patrick's Day weekend. The hosts plan to cover results from ARW, Frontline Pro, Super Wrestlers, and NWA Chicago, and preview the match card for New Genesis Wrestling's Madness and Mayhem on March 15th. They detail the NGW card, including a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match and Pretty Boy Floyd's final match. The conversation shifts to Frontline Pro, where they discuss the winner of the breakout tournament, Corey McHenry, and speculate on commentator Steve's tendency to turn on talents he once praised. This leads to a broader critique of Steve, accusing him of basing his opinions solely on fan reactions rather than genuine appreciation. Travis then delivers a passionate defense of his unwavering fandom for Max Holiday, citing Holiday's in-ring accomplishments and personal history. They briefly touch on an unsanctioned match announcement between Joey Jed Avalon and Ben McCoy in Frontline Pro. The ARW results segment is delivered in rapid-fire style, covering matches like Kaziel vs. Danger Mask and Nick Diamond vs. Donovan Marcellus. A notable moment involves Dave Allen running a gauntlet match where Josh Inez laid down after allegedly being threatened with firing. The main event saw Creed defeat Ivan Manson for a future Indiana State title shot, with both men accused of pulling tights. In the final segment, Travis angrily addresses a troll named Glenn James who mocked PCW for celebrating a packed house in a small venue, sparking a rant about respect and support in the indie wrestling community. The episode ends with brief WrestleMania speculation and a call for listeners to share results.
