By Gawd!

We may have been gone for a little bit, but we’re trying to make up for it by having a podcast that’s bursting at the seams with wrestling goodness this week. It’s the full crew this week, so you’ve got Kris, Colin and Peter breaking down what’s been going for the last month or so in the world of WWE, as well a few brief looks at the wider world.However, before we get to that, we should point out that this episode, as per usual, contains major SPOILERS for the last month or so of WWE programming.Of course, the biggest thing that’s happened recently in WWE is the Brand Split, with Raw and SmackDown Live getting their own rosters, stories, and distinct looks. The guys give their thoughts on the strengths and weaknesses of those rosters, as well as what WWE needs to do in regards to their current titles.There’s also the currently ongoing Cruiserweight Classic, which Peter and Kris have been really enjoying recently. The matches, commentary and presentation all earned pra

It may have taken us a little while, but we’ve finally had the time to look back over Extreme Rules. Alas, Peter wasn’t there for the discussion this time, but Colin and Kris ran down the show in record time, giving their fews on the show before looking at how WWE has progressed their storylines forwards from there to Money in the Bank.Of course, this does mean that the show features SPOILERS for WWE Extreme Rules, so don’t say you haven’t been warned.On top of that, there’s a run down of the recent news. The guys discuss Brock Lesnar’s UFC appearance, Will Ospreay’s success in Japan and the possible outcomes of the upcoming brand split.

Well it’s been a little while since our last podcast, but we’re back with a double header. With Payback now well and truly behind us, and Extreme Rules very nearly here, it seemed only fair that we looked at both of the shows. Unfortunately Peter couldn’t make the recording slot for this and episode, but that didn’t deter Kris and Colin, who sat down and looked at each of the pay-per-views and how the outcomes of Payback have moved onto the setup for Extreme Rules.It’s worth noting that, of course, there are massive spoilers for Payback in this episode. Kris and Colin discussed the show at length, and looked at the outcome of every match, as well as how WWE have moved their various feuds forwards since then.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download).You might want to get it (when the RSS catches us) on

Payback is tomorrow, so of course we’ve got our views on what we expect to happen on the show. While it may feel a little like WrestleMania had little to no impact on what’s come since, we’ve generally been enjoying this post-WrestleMania WWE, so it’s hard to complain about that too much.For this episode it’s the full crew of Kris, Colin and Peter, and we’ve all got plenty of thoughts on the show, ranging from the possibility of a Bullet Club faction to the problem with Kalisto and the US Title right now.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download).You might want to get it (when the RSS catches us) on the RSS feed, here.The show is also available via iTunes, where we’d really appreciate reviews if you like the show.Get us on Twitter:Kris - @halbproColin - @Barr66By Gawd! - @ByGawdBlogTheme Credit“Maxines” by Texas Music Forge is lice

So the biggest wrestling of the weekend happened, and I think it’s fair to say reactions were fairly mixed. NXT seemed to go down well, as did the Hall of Fame, while WrestleMania itself was more middle of the road.On this episode of the podcast Kris, Colin and Peter go over their fews of the weekend’s three big WWE events. It is, of course, entirely full of spoilers for everything that happened, and some of the fall out. Beyond that, all you need to do is listen to this mammoth episode, even if it is somewhat later than intended.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download).You might want to get it (when the RSS catches us) on the RSS feed, here.The show is also available via iTunes, where we’d really appreciate reviews if you like the show.Get us on Twitter:Kris - @halbproColin - @Barr66Peter - @colossalblueBy Gawd! - @ByGawdBlogThe

It’s WrestleMania weekend! I hope you’re excited! We’re certainly buzzing here at By Gawd for WWE’s biggest show of the year, and we’ve got our Pre-WrestleMania podcast to prove it.This episode only features Kris and Colin, but they both took the time to break down every match on the show, including the pre-show, giving their opinions on whether or not they really cared about each of the matches, their result prediction, and their thoughts on the potential quality of each matchup.There’s also some broader predictions, like the final image of the night, and thoughts on the order of the card. There’s no predictions for NXT TakeOver unfortunately, but the guys will probably roll some thoughts on that show into their overall opinion on WrestleMania when our breakdown podcast releases next week.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download)

Our infrequent podcasting schedule continues with a look back at Fastlane and Roadblock, as well as a look forward to WrestleMania. Kris and Colin sat down to discuss all of these topics alongside the current storylines that WWE are running with. Does the Undertaker vs Shane O’Mac match make any sense? What do they think about AJ Styles vs Chris Jericho story line? Just what are you supposed to call this year’s WrestleMania now WWE have dropped the number? All of that, and more, is answered on this episode.It is, however, worth noting that this episode was recorded before WWE announced more of the WrestleMania card, so some of the speculation now seems wildly outdated.

Well, WWE Fastlane is upon and, as is our custom, we’ve got a podcast full of predictions for you, mixing in a little recent news. Colin, Kris and Peter share their opinions on Daniel Bryan’s unfortunate early retirement, the announcement of WWE’s Global Cruiserweight Series, rumours around Wade Barrett’s future, and a few other bits here and there.From there it’s on to their thoughts on what’s been going on over the last few weeks, as well as their predictions for WWE Fastlane and onto WrestleMania.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download).You might want to get it (when the RSS catches us) on the RSS feed, here.The show is also available via iTunes, where we’d really appreciate reviews if you like the show.Get us on Twitter:Kris - @halbproColin - @Barr66Peter - @colossalblueBy Gawd! - @ByGawdBlogTheme Credit“Maxines” by Texas Mus

We may be a little late (blame Kris), but if you want to know what Kris, Colin and Peter thought of 2016’s Royal Rumble then, finally, your prayers are answered! Of course, it’s worth noting that there are very heavy spoilers for the entire Royal Rumble event in this episode, as well as some details about the build towards Fastlane.With that said, give this episode a listen if you want to hear a breakdown of the entire Royal Rumble event. If that isn’t enough of a reason, then there are also some thoughts on Rusev’s attempt to revive a defunct championship, as well as Peter’s thoughts on the need for a Cruiserweight or Light Heavyweight division in the WWE.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download).You might want to get it (when the RSS catches us) on the RSS feed, here.The show is also available via iTunes, where we’d really appre

After a rather long and unexpected hiatus, the By Gawd podcast has returned! As it’s January, it seems like now would be a good time to look back over the past year, so this episode is mostly focussed on us giving out awards that highlight the best of 2015.Between Colin, Kris and Peter, awards were given out for Commentator of the Year, Feud of the Year, Match of the Year, Best Tag Team, Best Female Wrestler and Best Male Wrestler. If you’d like to check out a full list of the awards you can head over here , or you can simply listen to the show.As an added treat, the guys also looked forwards to WrestleMania, trying to predict the winner of the Royal Rumble and how things will shake out from there.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download).You might want to get it (when the RSS catches us) on the RSS feed, here.The show is also

Hell in a Cell has been and gone, and Colin and Kris actually managed to find some time to talk about WWE’s most recent PPV. As per usual, this episode is packed full of spoilers, so if you haven’t seen Hell in a Cell yet probably give it a miss. The guys also cover a bit of the post-Hell in a Cell Raw, so be aware of that. With that said, over the course of this hour long episode, Colin and Kris break down the show, highlighting their favourite bits and dismissing those elements that just didn’t do much for them. They also take a quick look at where things are going next, as WWE build towards Survivor Series.

The general feeling about SummerSlam seemed to be one of confusion in this episode of the podcast. While Kris, Colin and Peter all had some ideas about how things will pan out, they’re pretty much stumped by both of the main events. That’s either a good thing, as it means WWE aren’t following their usual formula, or a terrible thing, as it means everything will be a huge mess. I guess the only way to find out will be to watch the show.The guys also took time to quickly preview NXT Takeover on the podcast, mostly focusing on the practicalities of Liger’s mask. It was a weird segment.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download).You might want to get it (when the RSS catches us) on the RSS feed, here.The show is also available via iTunes, where we’d really appreciate reviews if you like the show.Get us on Twitter:Kris - @halbproColin -

After a longer than intended break we are back! In the podcast’s absence a lot has been going on, and Colin and Kris broke down a few of their highlights. From Seth Rollins lack of credible challengers to the abundance of challengers that John Cena has created with the US Title Open Challenge, the guys take a look at everything they’ve been enjoying, culminating in a look at the epic battle between Brock Lesnar and The Undertaker.On a sadder note, this episode was recorded before the passing of Roddy Piper. Kris recorded a short tribute to Piper to open the episode, and of course our thoughts are with his family.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download).You might want to get it (when the RSS catches us) on the RSS feed, here.The show is also available via iTunes, where we’d really appreciate reviews if you like the show.Get us on

Well I think we can all agree that that was a pretty good WrestleMania. While this episode of the podcast breaks down everything that happened during WrestleMania 31, the sheer quality of the show is the obvious headline.Yes, this episode see Kris, Colin and Peter sit down to discuss what happened on WWE’s biggest show of the year, chronicling all the twists and turns that happened throughout the night. That obviously means this episode contains SIGNIFICANT SPOILERS for WrestleMania 31, so make sure you watch it before listening in.This podcast features strong language, jokes in poor taste and adult themes, if you’re offended by that then we recommend that you don’t listen to it at all.As usual, you can grab the MP3 file here (right click to download).You might want to get it (when the RSS catches us) on the RSS feed, here.The show is also available via iTunes, where we’d really appreciate reviews if you like the show.Get us on Twitter:Kris - @halbpro Colin - @Barr66Peter - @colossalblue By Gawd! - @ByGawdBlo

Much like the rest of the wrestling world, this episode of the By Gawd podcast sees us gearing up for the grandaddy of them all, WrestleMania. Yes, we’re back from another break in our recording schedule to give you our thoughts on how WrestleMania 31 will pan out, as well as what we think of the build up to the biggest show of the year.On this episode are Kris, Colin and Peter, and they break down pretty much everything about the show, kicking off with the recent news that Brock Lesnar has signed a new, multi-year deal with WWE, keeping him with the company well after WrestleMania. The guys talk about how they think this will affect WrestleMania itself, as well as the implications for story lines long term.They also talk about the situation with the US and Intercontinental Championships, and whether the entrance of John Cena and Daniel Bryan into the title pictures is the start of a resurgence for the second tier titles, or just a momentary blip. Beyond that, they run down the rest of the card, talking Under
