We look at MLW’s Intimidation Games special which featured Filthy Tom Lawlor against Low Ki in a cage match as the main event. We talk a bit more about Jim Cornette’s full role with MLW and how well he fit in doing color commentary. We update a couple of WWE stories with news on Dana Warrior’s role within WWE creative and more on Bruce Prichard.

We then talk about fallout from UFC 235 including Colby Covington and Kamaru Usman getting into a heated exchange, Ben Askren, the ESPN overnight ratings for the prelims, and Dana White’s mention of Brock Lesnar.

We finsh off the show with Dave’s thoughts on seeing Fighting With My Family, consideration for the best wrestling movies and documentaries (including quick thoughts on the upcoming Kenny Omega documetary), and Twitter questions including the WWE Invasion PPV and a 1979 video titled Plan B that has surfaced.
