  • Ep.14-Too Many Takes, Not Enough Pushes
    Sep 19 2025

    Welcome back to another unhinged ride on This Is Not a Shoot Podcast — the only wrestling podcast where the takes are hotter than the merch table is cold (seriously, nobody bought anything this week).

    In Episode 14, titled Too Many Takes, Not Enough Pushes, we serve up a buffet of sarcasm, storytelling, and screaming over one another. Wrestling fans, casuals, and chaos gremlins — this one’s for you.

    • 👑 Ring Queens:
      Let’s just say… the tension was real.
      What started as a respectful discussion turned into a full-on verbal steel cage match. There were shoes thrown, pride bruised, and somehow Baddy Daddy claimed victory (depending on who you ask — don’t ask).
      Find out who’s wearing the crown this week and whether anyone will survive to challenge her next episode.

    • 🐎 Saddle Up or Buck Off:
      Cowboy Cody returns with another segment so wild it could only exist here.
      We break down recent WWE and AEW storylines and ask the question: do we ride with it or kick it to the dirt?
      Spoiler: One storyline got the boot so fast it left a dusty trail to catering.

    • 💸 We Buy Stuff:
      Merch talk was a little slow this week — we didn’t buy much, and for once, we almost stayed on topic.
      Expect minor flexing, major sarcasm, and an embarrassing admission about a limited edition wrestling plushie.

    • 🧠 Weird AF:
      Oh yeah… it’s that segment.
      We dove deep into one of the most infamous moments in wrestling history: the “Choppy Choppy Your Pee Pee” saga — yes, Val Venis, Kaientai, the sword, the whole thing.
      We question everything about it, from how it got approved to why it still lives rent-free in our minds decades later.

    • ⚔️ Battlegrounds:
      This week’s fantasy match-ups were heaters.
      We threw down big names in the world’s greatest wrestling what-ifs. Expect legends, long shots, and a few picks that had the whole crew side-eyeing each other like it was Survivor Series backstage.
      Who made the right call? Who should be banned from choosing ever again? You decide.

  • Episode 13-The Forbidden Episode
    Sep 8 2025

    This one probably shouldn’t exist… but here we are.
    In Episode 13 — The Forbidden Episode — we push the boundaries of wrestling talk, podcast decency, and possibly our listener count. It’s chaotic, it’s unfiltered, and it might just be our best (or worst) episode yet.

    We dive into the latest happenings across WWE, AEW, and more, while keeping it fully off the rails with our signature segments:

    • 🔥 Booked or Cooked – One storyline had us marking out, the other deserves to be locked in catering forever.

    • 👑 Ring Queens – There's a new undisputed queen of the ring, and she didn't come to play.

    • 🐎 Saddle Up – Cowboy Cody is on a warpath. Again. Brock Lesnar slander? Absolutely.

    • 🧠 Weird AF – Things get weird. Real weird. Let’s just say... you’ll never look at wrestling hands the same.

    • ⚔️ Battlegrounds – It’s fantasy warfare, and this week’s picks could break the internet… or at least the locker room.

    Whether you're a fan of WWE Raw, SmackDown, AEW Dynamite, Rampage, Collision, or just indie wrestling chaos, this episode has a little something for everyone — especially if you're into unfiltered opinions, sarcasm, and shots fired at creative booking.

    💬 COMMENT: Was this our best episode or our villain origin story?

  • Dark Match-Episode 1: "Iconic Chris Fortune"
    Sep 5 2025

    Step into the shadows and into the stories you don’t hear on TV.
    In the debut episode of Dark Match, we sit down with the iconic Chris Fortune — a true southern outlaw of the ring, straight outta Arkansas.

    Chris opens up about his wrestling upbringing, the grind of the indie scene, and the moments that made him fall in love with this business. From small-town shows to late-night drives, he shares real stories from the road — the kind you only hear when the cameras are off and the ring is empty.

    Whether you’ve followed Chris Fortune for years or you’re just discovering him now, this episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves the gritty heart of professional wrestling.

    🎧 Dark Match is your backstage pass to the stories behind the stories — featuring the names you may not know (yet), but won’t forget once the bell rings.
