The Scholars talk about Tournaments in Pro Wrestling History, from the simple to the complicated
The Scholars start by opening a pack of WCW Trading Cards from 1991! The question isn’t whether Andrew will draw a Ric Flair card, but how many Ric Flairs will he draw. (05:40)
Then, the Scholars pivot to taking news items. They contemplate the serious implications on AEW of a Warner Brothers Sale, discuss the strange Andrade Contract situation, debate if CM Punk of Jey Uso should be the next WHC, and speculate what a Broken Hardyz match looks like in 2025. (18:00).
Then, it’s time for the Word of the Day: Tournaments. They talk about the machinations and multiple storylines that can be mined within a bracket format, run through predictions for the upcoming tournament to crown the first AEW Women’s Tag Champions, run through wrestling history to talk about tournaments that worked or didn’t work, and then pitch some new wacky tournament ideas (48:45).
