Survivor Series: WarGames 2025 is almost here and the Basement Bookers are breaking down everything from the women’s WarGames teams to John Cena’s “My Time Is Now” retirement tournament, plus a full recap of AEW Full Gear 2025.

We talk the women’s WarGames match – AJ Lee, Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss, Rhea Ripley & IYO SKY vs Becky Lynch, Asuka, Kairi Sane, Nia Jax & Lash Legend – what it means that the babyfaces get the advantage, and whether Charlotte turns on her team when it matters most.

Then we get into John Cena’s retirement tour, the “Last Time Is Now” tournament, Jey Uso vs Rusev, and why a potential GUNTHER vs Cena final could change how fans see the Ring General forever. We also hit Becky vs Maxxine Dupri for the Women’s Intercontinental Championship and what a short Maxxine run really says about WWE’s plans.

Plus, a big AEW Full Gear 2025 rundown: Samoa Joe shocks Hangman Adam Page in a steel cage to become AEW World Champion, Ricochet wins the inaugural AEW National Championship, FTR regain the AEW World Tag Team Titles, Mark Briscoe captures the TNT Championship, and Timeless Toni Storm & Mina Shirakawa earn the right to pick their women’s tag tournament stip.

We also shout out Joe Hendry officially signing with WWE, Bookermania/Booker Series lore, toxic masculinity jokes, Rusev Day fantasy booking, and why “WrestlePalooza” is a terrible name no matter how hard they push it.
