This week, The Doc runs down what looks to be one hell of a WWE PPV this upcoming Sunday.  It has a different vibe about it than most WWE shows, with a concentration on the mid-card through the signature gimmick and an NXT star in a prominent match flanking what could be a Match of the Year candidate for the WWE Championship between Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins (c).  Also, Doc takes a look at how the women of NXT are changing the perception of females in wrestling.

TRSOTP may have hit their milestone 100th episode last week, but they continue on as the longest weekly episodic show on LOPRadio. Well, until the Director of Operations/Beverages forcefully takes over and creates his own show. This week, they're LIVE again! Mazza's predictions that it could happen more often due to laziness has come to fruition and it's that close to the time, I don't even know what he'll be talking about along with Maverick! What will be guaranteed though, is plenty of wrestling talk and a few bloopers along the way. So basically the norm then....

After an amazing edition of Raw last Monday, can WWE keep the momentum towards Payback going on SmackDown? Also, your host, LOP columnist Super Chrisss, was live in attendance for this week's Raw.

And what happened after the cameras stopped rolling for Pat Patterson Appreciation Night?   Tune into "The SmackDown ReBound" at 10pm EST to find out, exclusively on LOP Radio.

This week, The Doc plays the "What If" game after a recent conversation led him down some interesting historical roads.  He'll suggest what might have happened had Paul Heyman had his head on straight in the late 1990s and whether he could have turned the tide in the Monday Night War for WCW, discuss CM Punk leaving in 2011 or staying in 2014, and much more.  Also, Doc will cruise around the wrestling world to tackle a few of the hotter current topics, including Michelle Beadle's Twitter announcement that she has turned in her WWE fan card because of Triple H's relationship with Floyd Mayweather.  Tune in to hear Doc's "What If" scenarios and how he feels they could have each reshaped wrestling lore as we know it.
