WT EXTRA ANNOUNCEMENT - WE'RE GIVING YOU MORE!
Added 2025-01-17 10:51:58 +0000 UTCHowdy SWAFT Nation,
We bring good news!
You know that Patreon-exclusive WrestleTalk Extra show you know and love? We love it too. And, super weirdly, turns out the public audience are just as big fans. Luke and I were going through all WrestleTalk's best-performing videos from 2024, and there, in the Top 25, was our review of the Royal Rumble 2014.
Which we were pretty surprised by. We only popped it on the free feed back in August to promote the full Breakup of the Shield arc we did on Patreon. And now, as I'm writing this, it's done 172,325 views.
So we've had an idea: we're going to do a monthly WT Extra video on the WrestleTalk YouTube channel, in additional to your Patreon-exclusive one. Which means DOUBLE THE AMOUNT OF RAMBLECHAT!
This will start in January, so we've decided not to cover the Gargano vs Ciampa feud that won the poll last month. When we looked into it, not only did we cover the story in realtime with podcast reviews. We've also covered two of the most important Takeover events on WT Extra already - so we felt we wouldn't have much more to add.
Later this month, we'll put together a playlist of all the Gargano vs Ciampa coverage we've already done for you on Patreon!
Instead, our next arc on the Road to WrestleMania, will be the four-month, eight-episode series: THE ROCK VS JOHN CENA.
Dear God, help us all.
This will look like:
JANUARY:
Youtube - Episode 1: WrestleMania 27 (Rock hosts)
Patreon - Episode 2: Survivor Series 2011 (Rock & Cena vs Awesome Truth)
FEBRUARY:
YouTube - Episode 3: WrestleMania 28 (Rock vs Cena I)
Patreon - Episode 4: Raw 1000 (Punk's heel turn on the Rock!!!)
MARCH:
YouTube - Episode 5: Royal Rumble 2013 (Punk vs Rock)
Patreon - Episode 6: Elimination Chamber (Punk vs Rock rematch)
APRIL:
YouTube - Episode 7: WrestleMania 29 (Rock vs Cena II)
Patreon - Episode 8: WrestleMania 32 (Rock's weird Erick Rowan match and he sets fire to his own name)
The first two episodes will go live on Jan 25th. Jam that Jam!
Comments
When you guys are ready to do another TNA arc, I suggest Gail Kim vs Awesome Kong - Impact Oct. 7 '07 (Kong's debut match) BFG 2007, Turning Point 2007, Final Resolution 2007, Impact Jan. 10 '08 (Kong wins title), Destination X 2008 Kong vs Gail vs ODB, Impact May 15 '08, Impact Aug. 21 '08 (Gail vs Kong in Gail's final match before leaving TNA)

2025-02-12 16:42:43 +0000 UTCIs it possible to keep the collections updated? It is rather hard to find uncut Survivals and things.
Spencer Schneider
2025-02-07 16:56:36 +0000 UTCBut that's the thing, I DO NOT KNOW WHICH COUNTRY IT IS VISIBLE ON 🤣. I tried Canada, Washington USA, London UK... If I knew which country I obviously would have already done that haha
benito riggio
2025-01-24 20:06:35 +0000 UTCSorry, but if you're already using a VPN, why not just set it to a country where it IS visible?
Dr. Judge, Private Eye
2025-01-24 17:08:23 +0000 UTCQuestion: How did you watch Survivor Series 2011? Because if I use my VPN & set it to Canada, not every Survivor Series is on there... Or did you set it to another country?
benito riggio
2025-01-23 18:19:10 +0000 UTCI just have a quick question: will all of this still be downloadable as podcasts? Or will it just be on Youtube?
Justin Campbell
2025-01-23 01:57:55 +0000 UTCThat’s why I voted for Dreamer versus Raven.
Chuck Turner
2025-01-22 16:45:49 +0000 UTCI think you can do Jeff Hardy’s 2008 run Armageddon 07 Royal Rumble 08 No Way out 08 Skip to no mercy 08 Cyber Sunday 08 Survivor series 08 And finish with Armageddon 08
Frank Botello
2025-01-22 13:13:52 +0000 UTCAs somebody who wasn’t around during the NXT podcasts, when can we expect the collection to be uploaded? Super excited to listen but can’t seem to figure out YT episodes
Ian
2025-01-21 14:13:45 +0000 UTCWrestleMania 27? Oh, my condolences... I look forward to the discussion of the main event 😅, its mizerable
benito riggio
2025-01-19 20:31:57 +0000 UTCFun fact: You guys have reviewed a show from every year between 1995 and 2018, except for 2012! That is the one year that never won a poll (for reasons I'm sure will become clear). I'm so happy to see the gap finally closed.
Chris Smith
2025-01-19 13:42:29 +0000 UTCI shall refer to that platform as release date before i call it X 🤣
Gareth Jones
2025-01-18 16:02:45 +0000 UTCthe power is back
Arron Smith
2025-01-18 12:17:12 +0000 UTCOLI: Ha, that's me not updating a placeholder. X = Release date, formerly known as Twitter.
WrestleTalk
2025-01-18 10:42:02 +0000 UTCOLI: This series is more of a test to see if there's a public appetite. We've got another, even bigger idea if it's successful...
WrestleTalk
2025-01-18 10:41:29 +0000 UTCOLI: Yes, all episodes will also be on Patreon!
WrestleTalk
2025-01-18 10:40:46 +0000 UTCheck yeah! I enjoyed the WT Extras on the breakup of the shield so much that I bumped up to the next tier so I could partake in the Joe v Angle series. I'm excited that I get to enjoy double the content now! My question is, will there be a patreon version of the ones that hit YouTube so we can still see the copyrighted content?
TEi HasPants
2025-01-18 01:33:45 +0000 UTCHell yeah, more wrestletalk extra with Luke and oli, the reason I became a Patreon member!
gabriel shute
2025-01-17 21:47:28 +0000 UTCFantastic News! I subbed on patreon specifically for these Wrestletalk Extras series'. So so so so so glad to get more of them! Not sure about the decision to split 1 storyline across two platforms though. In the episode breakdown it looks like its going to work okay for this storyline but i am concerned about how it will work with future series. Maybe better to do two different Storylines one on Youtube and One here on Patreon. Just a Suggestion. Jam that Jam
TheKing101
2025-01-17 19:18:29 +0000 UTCThat's a great idea - always funny watching Oli and Luke lose their mind at how bad WWE was 😂 gonna be a great series 👌
Jamie Fisher
2025-01-17 17:12:22 +0000 UTCFirst to episodes live on X Cant work out if that was a placeholder or Oli just loving elon that much 🤣
Gareth Jones
2025-01-17 16:43:40 +0000 UTCRight??
Dr. Judge, Private Eye
2025-01-17 16:33:01 +0000 UTCINCREDIBLE!
Dr. Judge, Private Eye
2025-01-17 16:32:45 +0000 UTCFirst episodes going live on X? What is this? WrestleTalk speed?
Timothy DeGrand
2025-01-17 15:36:41 +0000 UTCGreat news guys - maybe a little close the lines but id love to know more about the best performing videos/patreon plugs (I assume MNW is up there as it go me to pledge!)
Blossom
2025-01-17 14:47:20 +0000 UTCCan you cover Kevin Steen vs el Generico in ROH at some point?
Christopher Little
2025-01-17 12:37:43 +0000 UTCi was like, why didn't you just go with the 2nd most voted on the poll, then i realised oh, this is when wwe was crap! those are always the best podcast content
Bdazzle
2025-01-17 12:07:59 +0000 UTCIs a 1 match card but it will be fun re watching the Rock and Cena feud and the treatment of Punk as champ
Michael Rivera Morales
2025-01-17 11:56:02 +0000 UTCWill everything go on the patreon podcast feed??
Andrew Makinson
2025-01-17 11:23:33 +0000 UTCAwesome! Big fan of this
Oliver Santrac
2025-01-17 11:14:31 +0000 UTCOLI: Yep, there will be Patreon versions of the public episodes!
WrestleTalk
2025-01-17 11:09:26 +0000 UTCOLI: We're reviewing it today. My god... that final match...
WrestleTalk
2025-01-17 11:07:45 +0000 UTCthis will be great! Hopefully though the youtube videos will also be on Patreon with the content visible! Also, it’s a shame you’re not doing what won the poll! It would’ve been cool to hear an updated review and to go back and watch the storyline!
Brxdley.h
2025-01-17 11:05:15 +0000 UTCThat's pretty cool, excited for it. Will there be a Patreon version of the public YT version (with the copyrighted content visible) ? EDIT : WAIT, that means they're watching WM 28 !!! I've been pushing for this show on the old WT Extra review format
Kevin Fleuriot
2025-01-17 11:01:30 +0000 UTCLove it. The more content the better as far as I'm concerned gents. Thanks for all your hard work, and making me laugh out loud on my commutes, so I look like a complete pyschopath to strangers.
Charles Downend
2025-01-17 10:59:55 +0000 UTCIn order to review wrestlemania 27, I’m afraid that you’re going to have to watch it. I respect your grind, thank you for your service gentlemen. The first hurdle is always the toughest, but I believe in you 👍
Tommy overkill
2025-01-17 10:59:47 +0000 UTCHuge win for wrestletalk. Love it !
