The boys are back, live and in person, for an energetic romp covering the latest #NerdDC parody masterpiece, Clash of the Champions predictions, and the debut of the Cruiserweights on RAW. Some #Shocktober shenanigans occur when Doc eats a Hostess Pumpkin Spice Cupcake, and DC gets in on the action with some Apple Spice Donuts. Doc also briefly talks about the Awakening and Bayley's passage into womanhood. All this and more! Only on DDT Wrestling!

The Weekly Wrestling News is your source for the fake wrestling news. This week, we talk about the fallout from Backlash, the latest happenings on RAW and Smackdown, and cover reports that Vince McMahon sustained an injury while training. Smackdown commentator David Otunga also joins us for a nonsensical interview.

Nerd DC brings us into our 50th episode of DDT Wrestling, causing us to wonder if there is really too much wrestling each week. After a discussion on what we'd do with millions of dollars (besides podcast for you all the time), we break down Backlash, review RAW and summarize Smackdown, all while answering our multiple e-mails.

After a styles-ish intro by Nerd DC, the Pope of Positivity tries to figure out the many roads to Wrestlemania that are possible with AJ Styles as the Smackdown World Champion. How does John Cena factor into all of this? Could Samoa Joe play a role? All this and more as DC goes #ByTheBook!

In this episode of the fake wrestling news, Doc Manson covers the latest developments in WWE, Lucha Underground, and TNA. DC Matthews joins the fake news to preview upcoming shows debuting on the WWE Network, and gives a rundown of some birthdays in the world of professional wrestling.

Despite DC's most valiant efforts to start the show talking about the wonders of Bo Dallas, Doc Manson quickly takes over and sadly resumes SHOCKTOBER here at DDT Wrestling. After he samples today's concoctions, the guys delve into Sunday's Backlash, making #PreDCtions and #PreDOCtions, while also pumping the tires of their new endeavors, the Weekly Wrestling News and #WrestleRankEm. They then touch on Lucha Underground Season 3, the upcoming Cruiserweight Division and the good and bad of RAW before ending, as always, with the mailbag.

Doc Manson is your host and this is the fake wrestling news.

Hot off the success of Doc Manson's first solo podcast (also available on your friendly DDT Wrestling feed), the guys discuss the sweet science Doc used to break down RAW and Smackdown Live. Then, DC asks about the success and failure of No Man's Sky, which leads them down a 30 minute tangent on video games, specifically Doc's personal favorite, "7 Days to Die." Finally, they get back on track by dipping into the mailbag, where a DDT Wrestling Bestie inquires about the long term future of the WWE Brand Extension.

Welcome to the Doc Side! When left to himself, Doc ends up applying the sweet science to figure out who really won the week of wrestling, Raw or SmackDown.

With Doc Manson still trapped in the lab, DC turns to Periscope for co-hosts, chatting with members of the NAIborhood about Summer Slam. What does WWE see when they look at Enzo and Cass? How could the brand split save a major WWE PPV? Can we officially call 2016 "The Phenomenal Year" in pro wrestling? All this and more on The Pontificast!
