Jeff Peck argues AEW cannot keep Moxley as champion without risking another drop in fan interest.

1. Real. Guy. Pods. presents Episode #804 as a preview of WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event, NXT Great American Bash, AEW All In Texas, and WWE Evolution on July 10, 2025. 2. Jeff Peck hosts the So Real Dose Show with co-host Dr. Trey Franklin, whom Peck identifies as a longtime wrestling friend first connected through EA Game Show in 2008. 3. The episode asks whether WWE’s three-event counter-programming weekend can compete with AEW All In Texas and whether AEW has regained its swagger. 4. Peck and Franklin describe the weekend as unusually crowded, with events scheduled from Saturday afternoon through Sunday night. 5. Franklin chooses AEW All In Texas because Swerve versus Will Ospreay, Hangman Adam Page versus Jon Moxley, and Okada versus Kenny Omega interest him most. 6. Peck says AEW’s reported viewership has fallen below 600,000 and below 400,000 for Collision, affecting how extensively the podcast covers the promotion. 7. Peck argues AEW’s recent improvement comes from focusing on its own characters, storylines, and clean booking instead of repeatedly targeting WWE. 8. NXT Great American Bash is described as a solid television special featuring Oba Femi versus Yoshiki, Sol Ruca versus Izzy Dame, Ethan Page versus Ricky Saints, and Jasper Troy versus Je’Von Evans. 9. Franklin expects the NXT contract signing involving Trick Williams and Mike Santana to provide the night’s most predictable physical confrontation. 10. Goldberg’s World Heavyweight Championship match against Gunther prompts a debate over whether Seth Rollins will cash in after the bout. 11. Franklin predicts Goldberg could win in Atlanta before Rollins takes the title, while Peck predicts Goldberg leaves Atlanta as champion. 12. Peck and Franklin question whether Goldberg can wrestle twice within five weeks because reports mentioned injuries during training. 13. Peck says Goldberg’s possible championship victory on NBC could generate more national attention than AEW selling out the Texas Rangers’ baseball stadium. 14. The hosts praise the developing LA Knight and Seth Rollins feud for recalling the quick run-ins and finisher attacks associated with older wrestling angles. 15. AEW’s All In Texas build includes Tony Storm versus Mercedes Moné, Moxley versus Page, the Young Bucks versus Swerve and Ospreay, and several faction matches. 16. Peck says the Death Riders storyline remains his main concern and wants AEW to resolve the title direction instead of extending the angle without a clear payoff. 17. Franklin expects outside involvement from the Death Riders, the Young Bucks, and other wrestlers in the Texas Death Match. 18. The episode uses conversational predictions, card-by-card previews, jokes about Alabama heat, and a brief discussion of the Chicago Cubs visiting New York. 19. Wrestling fans tracking AEW and WWE event strategy. 20. Listeners uninterested in professional-wrestling booking debates.
