Why WWE’s WrestleMania 42 Card Exposes a Roster Depth Crisis
Roman Reigns delivered a masterclass promo choosing CM Punk for WrestleMania 42’s night two main event, referencing the Colt Cabana podcast that made his life hell for years. It was real, it was personal, and it was the best segment in wrestling this year. But beyond that blockbuster, WWE has a glaring problem: what closes night one? Cody Rhodes vs Drew McIntyre again is borderline unwatchable without adding Jacob Fatu. The women’s tag division — anchored by Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY — might be the strongest it’s ever been, but can it headline? Meanwhile, Sami Zayn’s world title window is closing fast, Chelsea Green’s babyface turn is being engineered through WWE’s Unreal show, and AEW Dynamite delivered back-to-back shock finishes with Brody King squashing MJF while a Las Vegas crowd chanted political slogans.

Anaconda (2025) Review: Paul Rudd and Jack Black Can’t Save This Meta Snake Sequel
Director Tom Gormican’s Anaconda (2025) brings Paul Rudd and Jack Black to the Amazon for a meta horror-comedy where fans remaking the 1997 cult classic encounter an actual giant snake. The result? “Two movies in one,” as Johnny North explains—comedy first, horror second, neither fully committed. Rudd and Black’s chemistry elevates weak material, but tonal inconsistency, limited snake screen time, and a surface-level script land the film in forgettable territory. For die-hard franchise fans only.
Anthony Joshua Exposes the Jake Paul Facade with Brutal Efficiency
Anthony Joshua exposed Jake Paul’s boxing facade with brutal efficiency on December 19, 2025, systematically dismantling the YouTube star before delivering a sixth-round knockout at Miami’s Kaseya Center. The former two-time heavyweight champion revealed what legitimate boxing fans knew all along—Paul’s carefully curated record against aging MMA fighters and journeymen bore no resemblance to facing actual elite-level competition. Ringside Report’s Dave Simon and Johnny North provided live commentary as the facade crumbled in real time. Paul’s conditioning failed, his defense collapsed, and his vaunted power proved nonexistent. After five rounds of backpedaling and desperate takedown attempts, Joshua ended the charade.
AEW All Out DESTROYS WWE Wrestlepalooza: 5 Hours vs 30 Dollar ESPN Disaster!
AEW All Out proved to be the decisive winner in the pro wrestling showdown, delivering quality in-ring action that WWE’s Wrestlepalooza—and its expensive $30 ESPN subscription—simply couldn’t match. While WWE’s show was a corporate disappointment filled with controversial returns and recycled matches, AEW’s five-hour marathon was a rollercoaster of incredible performances and shocking moments.
From the brutal masterpiece between Mark Briscoe and MJF to the “must-see car crash” of the Jon Moxley vs. Darby Allin Coffin Match, AEW won the night. Meanwhile, WWE’s event was defined by a stale Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena main event and a mixed tag match that made fans uncomfortable.
Read the full Ringside Report verdict to find out why All Out’s quality of wrestling gave it the decisive victory, and why WWE’s “age problem” and ESPN debut spelled disaster.
UFC 319 Complete Breakdown: Chimaev Destroys Du Plessis + Back-to-Back Spinning Elbow Finishes
The Ringside Report crew thought they were settling in for just another UFC pay-per-view watch along. Armed with bloody caesars and jalapeno chips, Dave Simon, AJ D’Alesio, and Fred Garcia had no idea they were about to witness the most unprecedented sequence in UFC history—back-to-back spinning elbow knockouts that would leave one fighter hospitalized and rewrite the record books.
What started as casual commentary quickly turned to stunned silence as Carlos Prates dropped Geoff Neal with a perfectly timed spinning elbow in the dying seconds of their first round. “Spinning back elbow knocks him out! It’s over!” Dave shouted, but the real shock was yet to come.
Just one fight later, as Aaron Pico seemed to be dominating Lerone Murphy on the ground, lightning struck twice. Murphy’s spinning elbow caught Pico flush on the temple, leaving the prospect unconscious and motionless. “Back to back spinners, that’s never happened in UFC,” AJ said in disbelief, capturing the historic nature of what they’d just witnessed.
But the night’s biggest story was still to unfold in the main event, where Khamzat Chimaev would deliver a wrestling masterclass so dominant that it left champion Dricus du Plessis looking “like a guy who’s just been deflated,” according to AJ’s ringside analysis. The crew’s live reactions—from technical breakdowns to genuine concern for fighter safety—provided the perfect soundtrack to a night that reminded everyone why MMA remains the most unpredictable sport on earth.
