Earning The Push is a weekly show for wrestling fans to do the two things they love - talk about the business, and about what they would do if they were in charge. Broadcaster Jack Murley and professional rugby player Charlie Beckett will be analysing what’s happening across the wrestling world, and getting you involved with the fantasy booking of angles from the past, present and future. It’s a show that’s open to everyone - and we want you to get involved. TWITTER: @charlie_beckett @jack_murley EMAIL: earningthepushpodcast@hotmail.com

For the second straight year, AEW takes over Wembley Stadium for AEW All In - with a card full of consequences and, in the case of Bryan Danielson, the potential ending of a career.
We take a look at AEW packing 50,000 into the legendary stadium (no mean feat in and of itself!) and which matches we're looking forward to - as well as whether there might be any potential surprises that Tony Khan springs (we're looking at you, Ricochet and Shane McMahon!)
We're also casting our eye over the Bash in Berlin card, talking about why now is the right time for Joe Hendry to win the NXT Championship - and Charlie has some confessions about his distance running training!

It was one hell of a Summerslam - with more than 50,000 people jamming out the Cleveland Browns Stadium for the biggest event of the summer.
Roman Reigns returned, CM Punk and Drew McIntyre finally clashed, Dom betrayed Rhea Ripley - and new champions were crowned!
We break down the whole show on this week's podcast, including where this leaves us heading into Bash in Berlin, the possibilities for War Games, who is over-delivering on the WWE roster right now, and loads, loads more.

There's so much on this week's podcast - from Punk vs Drew being made official for Summerslam to Damian Priest's surprisingly awesome run as a babyface to the pure chaos of Blood and Guts on AEW Dynamite.
Factor in continuing questions over whether Dom and Liv are fooling anyone - let alone Rhea Ripley! - more Joe Hendry greatness, and a brilliant weekend for TNA at Slammiversary, and there's loads for us to get into on this week's podcast.
So, that's exactly what we're going to do!

One of the all-time greats is hanging up his boots, Rhea Ripley has returned to seek vengeance on Liv Morgan, Drew McIntyre has been foiled - again! - in his Money in the Bank cash-in attempt by CM Punk, and MJF has turned heel with a vicious attack on Daniel Garcia on Dynamite.
And honestly, they're just the things we remember from a massive week in professional wrestling, and we're here to talk about it all on this week's Earning The Push.
From who John Cena should face in his last run to why people should be putting some respect on Chelsea Green's name, it's been a huge week - and we can't wait for you to hear our thoughts on it!

Oh, poor Paul Heyman.
He finally stood his ground against the Bloodline - and boy, did he ever pay for it!
But, what sucked for the Heyman character was an AMAZING moment at Madison Square Garden on an all-time great episode of Smackdown.
We get into that on the podcast, along with Mercedes Mone being challenged by Britt Baker at Forbidden Door, a massive Money In The Bank preview and loads, loads more!

If people were worried about the follow-up to the debut of the Wyatt Sicks last week, they didn't need to be.
Bo Dallas and the WWE creative team absolutely smashed it with an amazing follow-up interview that has the wrestling world talking - including us, as we break down why Bo's sitdown with Uncle Howdy worked so well on so many different levels.
We're also chatting about Rollins and Priest raising the stakes for their World Championship match at Money in the Bank, how Charlie could get his dream match at Bash in Berlin, why AEW still isn't catching alight and loads more!

After a break while Charlie went off on his holidays, we're back with a jam-packed episode - because boy, is there a lot of wrestling to get into.
Drew McIntyre gets screwed in Glasgow by a returning CM Punk at Clash at the Castle, Joe Hendry arrives in NXT, Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio continue to do their soap opera thing - while a quality stand-off between Will Ospreay and MJF doesn't seem to be doing anything to halt AEW's sliding ratings for Dynamite.
We get into it all on the podcast this week, including our thoughts on the WWE-TNA working relationship, the arrival of Jacob Fatu in the Bloodline, Seth Rollins and his return to Raw, why Otis-Chad Gable is money and loads, loads more.
