Sit Down Shut Up Mark Out

Did AEW's women just deliver a BETTER Blood & Guts match than the men? And why does the sight of women bleeding in a wrestling ring suddenly turn certain wrestling fans into self-appointed guardians of morality?On episode 135 of Sit Down Shut Up Mark Out, Blade Daily and Books and Bodyslams break down AEW Dynamite: Blood & Guts 2026, where the violence was spectacular, the storytelling was brutal, and the concern trolls were apparently working overtime.🩸 WOMEN'S BLOOD & GUTS & THE SEXISM OF SELECTIVE OUTRAGEKris Statlander, Willow Nightingale, Queen Aminata, Harley Cameron, Jamie Hayter, and Alex Windsor delivered an unforgettable battle against Megan Bayne, Thekla, Skye Blue, Julia Hart, Persephone, and Lena Kross.But instead of celebrating the performances, certain corners of wrestling fandom are once again questioning whether women should participate in hardcore wrestling at all.We're discussing the double standards, paternalism, and sexism hiding behind supposedly well-meaning criticism. Why is blood considered a badge of honor for male wrestlers but degrading when women do it?🔥 SWERVE STRICKLAND, BANDIDO & THE NEW LEVEL GO TO WARThe increasingly personal rivalry between Swerve Strickland's New Level and the unlikely alliance of Bandido, Hangman Adam Page, and Brody King is heating up!With a Texas Death Match looming at AEW Full Gear, we're examining Bandido's growing star power, Swerve's villainous brilliance, and whether New Level is becoming one of AEW's most compelling factions.💀 MEN'S BLOOD & GUTS: HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH?Kyle Fletcher and the Don Callis Family emerged victorious, Adam Copeland surrendered to protect Will Ospreay, and Darby Allin took yet another terrifying fall.Is Fletcher ready to become AEW World Champion? Did the men's match sacrifice storytelling for spectacle? And when does extreme violence stop adding to the drama?PLUS: Mercedes Moné vs. Marina Shafir, Jon Moxley and The Cut, the road to Full Gear 2026, and plenty of the deeply questionable wrestling discourse you've come to expect.Two Blood & Guts matches.

👑 THE WOMEN ARE READY. IS AEW?Queen Aminata is the NEW AEW TBS Champion after defeating Persephone in a spectacular Dynamite main event!

AEW has an embarrassment of riches. An extraordinary roster, compelling rivalries, and more stories than it can possibly fit into two hours of Dynamite. So why are the women still struggling to get meaningful television time?This week on Sit Down Shut Up Mark Out, Blade Daily flies solo for a special pre-recorded episode, breaking from the usual format to talk about everything happening in AEW following WrestleDream.Jay White makes a statement alongside the Bang Bang Gang and The Dogs, the Don Callis Family establishes itself as a dominant force, and Steven Borden enters the Blood & Guts picture. Meanwhile, Swerve Strickland and Hangman Page renew their violent rivalry, Ilja Dragunov makes his AEW debut, and Nick Wayne continues making Chris Jericho's life miserable.Blade also discusses Queen Aminata's TBS Championship opportunity and the intriguing confrontation between Mercedes Moné and Marina Shafir.But the biggest question comes from something Dynamite didn't deliver: meaningful time for its women's division.One women's match on a two-and-a-half-hour show.Does AEW really need a three-hour Dynamite to accommodate its enormous roster? Or is the problem less about available television time and more about booking priorities?It's a different kind of SDSUMO this week: one host, plenty of opinions, and a bigger conversation about what AEW gets right, what it gets wrong, and how it can make better use of the incredible talent it already has.We love, we laugh, we babble.Enjoy the episode?

AEW WrestleDream 2026 was built with duct tape, questionable judgment, and what we can only assume was a rapidly approaching deadline.AND THEN THE DAMN SHOW RULED.AGAIN.HOW DO THEY KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS?!Professor Degree, Blade Daily, and Kendra Omega have assembled for another SHUT UP FOREVER, the unholy union of Sit Down Shut Up Mark Out and Pro Wrestling Forever, to discuss AEW's latest exercise in making absolutely no sense until the bell rings.The build was underwhelming. The expectations were modest. The wrestling was tremendous. Apparently, this is just how we're doing things now.On the menu of professional wrestling nonsense:CLOCKWORK CARNAGE! Will Ospreay survives a match that seemingly required an instruction manual, a stopwatch, and an advanced degree in mathematics. Did it actually work? Somehow, yes?ILJA DRAGUNOV IS ALL ELITE! Because apparently AEW looked at its absurdly talented roster and decided it needed MORE ridiculously good wrestlers.MOXLEY VS. MARK DAVIS! Two large, angry men attempt to turn each other into hamburger in an emotional Continental Championship battle.MERCEDES MONÉ VS. THEKLA! The CEO gets controversial, the Toxic Spider gets even more dangerous, and we have THOUGHTS.NEW TRIOS CHAMPIONS! Hangman Page and Brodido take the titles from Swerve Strickland and New Level. Because AEW's main-event scene apparently wasn't complicated enough.THE YOUNG BUCKS, ANDRADE, NICK WAYNE, AND MORE! Terrific wrestling, questionable decisions, and the occasional reminder that we are all deeply unserious people who have devoted decades of our lives to this nonsense.But beyond the matches, we're asking the question that seems to follow every AEW pay-per-view:IS AEW SO GOOD AT WRESTLING THAT IT'S GETTING AWAY WITH BEING BAD AT BUILDING WRESTLING SHOWS?Can incredible matches compensate for inconsistent storytelling? Is Tony Khan relying on his roster to bail him out? And how much better could these shows be if the road to the pay-per-view was anywhere near as exciting as the destination?We're going to celebrate the hell out of what worked, complain about what didn't, and probably get distracted by something incredibly stupid along the way.Because that's what we do.We love. We laugh. We babble.ABOUT SHUT UP FOREVER & JOBBER UNDERGROUNDShut Up Forever is the occasional collision of Sit Down Shut Up Mark Out and Pro Wrestling Forever, bringing together wrestling fans who have spent entirely too many years watching grown adults pretend to hurt each other and somehow still have several hours of opinions about it.Both shows are part of the Jobber Underground podcast network, covering AEW, NJPW, STARDOM, ROH, wrestling history, and the wonderful absurdity of professional wrestling.If you enjoyed the show, follow us on Spotify or Apple Podcasts, leave a rating or review, and share the episode with your fellow wrestling sickos.
