On this week’s episode of The Two Count, we break down one of the most important weeks in recent memory for both AEW and WWE, including the fallout from AEW Double or Nothing 2026, major backstage developments, roster rumors, and the growing debate surrounding WWE’s current creative direction.
We start with the massive reaction to AEW Double or Nothing, with many fans calling it the greatest AEW pay-per-view ever. We discuss what made the show feel so different compared to previous AEW events, including the pacing, shorter runtime, improved match order, upgraded stage presentation, and the noticeable reduction in excessive blood and overbooked chaos.
We also discuss the growing controversy surrounding Andres Hale covering AEW for ESPN after reportedly being pulled from WWE coverage, and what it says about the evolving relationship between mainstream sports media and professional wrestling.
One of the biggest surprises of the week saw Mick Foley officially sign with AEW, leading to a face-to-face confrontation with MJF during the Double or Nothing Buy In. What does Foley bring to AEW in 2026, and is this the beginning of a larger storyline involving MJF?
We also break down the future of FTR, who are reportedly entering their option year with AEW. Should Tony Khan do everything possible to keep them, or would WWE benefit more from bringing them back?
Over in WWE, rumors continue to grow about the possible return of Enzo & Cass to help revitalize WWE’s struggling tag team division. Could this actually work in 2026, or is WWE relying too heavily on nostalgia?
We also react to another underwhelming edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event, with fans criticizing the show for feeling more like a glorified house show than a premium television special.
Plus, we discuss the developing story involving Ludwig Kaiser, who was reportedly arrested following an incident in his apartment building, while WWE has reportedly decided not to take disciplinary action.
And, on the injury front, Logan Paul is reportedly dealing with a torn triceps, leading many fans to wonder whether his faction, “The Vision,” is already cursed before it can truly begin.
