Wrestle Me

by Stak

Award-winning comedy writer Marc Haynes has watched every single Wrestlemania. Broadcaster Pete Donaldson hasn’t. Join them both every week as they subject the greatest spectacle in sports entertainment to the kind of scrutiny that ruins them entirely.


A hilarious and surprisingly insightful look into some of the most preposterous, glamorous and over-the-top sporting events the world has ever seen – from Hulk Hogan and Mr T at Madison Square Garden way back in 1985 to Roman Reigns and The Undertaker going head-to-head in April 2017 – Wrestle Me is a must-listen accompaniment to The Grandest Stage of Them All.


Say your prayers, take your vitamins and pop your human growth hormone while it's still technically legal. It's Wrestle Me!

    Five stars
    The only four star podcast worthy of five stars.
  • Batman's Dead Mom
    Funniest Pod Around (Wrestling Or Otherwise)
    Mark and Peter have one of the best rapports of any two man podcast team going today. Their hilarious, topical, generally good natured banter is further complimented by Mark’s extensive wrestling knowledge and fanaticism. A great listen for those who love wrestling, are looking to explore their interest in it, or for anyone who just wants a hearty laugh.
  • Steven J.T.
    A really fun show
    The hosts are absolutely great. It is a lot of fun to go on the journey with Pete as he learns about the wild world of wrestling. I was really into the WWF/E in the late 80’s and early 90’s but stopped watching. Finding this podcast has gotten me interested again. The playful banter between two friends with a great appreciation of each other makes this podcast an uplifting laugh out loud joy! Also it is well worth it to join the Patreon as you got a ton of other content about the bizarre world of wrestling.
  • Adam Mala
    It's Funny When It's Apolitical
    The show has its funny moments. However there are times when it ventures into what I consider politics and since I am on the right and the hosts are on the left, I do not care for these times since I spend my time thinking of rejoinders instead of simply being along for a lark.

    Snarky smarky loopy loo. No self respect in the best of ways.

    Two British men making people care about a subject they’ve never cared about once in their lives
    I can’t really explain my love for this podcast, I just know that I love it a lot. Give it a listen! It’s hilarious and actually very informative (about wrestling....I don’t know how useful the knowledge you’ll gain from this podcast will be in your day to day life, but it’s great still).

    💍
    This show is a gem! I filled Pete’s football podcasting and love this show. Supremely entertaining with a good balance of humor, lovely bants and interesting insight and facts. The personal touch/experiences added by Marc are great - and the Patreon bonus’ are more than worth the subscription!
  • emotionalscumbag
    American here
    American here , love the podcast British people are neat Pete is pretty neat Only problem is if you want more episodes you have to sub to the patreon however that’s okay cuz they deserve the money
  • Evant524
    👍👍
    Sometimes I have to pause when I'm listening in public coz I start laughing to hard. Hilarious and informative, highly recommend.
  • Stretzy88

    Big Shows D***!
    They’re hilarious!
  • Ldavidfish
    Wrestle Me!
    The show is great! Mark and Pete discuss the history of wrestling in a funny, entertaining, and honest way. It’s fascinating for everyone, not just fans of Wrasslin’.

    Wrestle Me
    Now don't start! These two are hilarioius!
  • ATexasRed
    Wrestling pod for the common man
    I have never watched a Wrestlemania, and have no plans too. But I bet if I did, this pod would make more sense. Highly recommend it to anyone who doesn’t watch wrestling.
  • Shtanley
    Just long enough
    Best wrestling podcast in the business. A perfect balance of wrestling knowledge and wrestling adjacent tangents. Accept no substitutes!
  • GBCell
    Cheers for all the laughs
    Wrestle Me is, hands down, my favorite wrestling, and perhaps comedy, podcast. Even if you didn’t grow up through the glory days of Repo Man, Lord Alfred Hayes, and (accept no substitutes) Crush... (which I did)... The brilliant team of Marc and Pete deliver the perfect mix of on-point humorous and accurate observations while maintaining respect to the culture and history that is Professional Wrestling. Marc and Pete, if you were a tag team, would you be... “The Wrestle Me-mes”? Love you guys. Cheers for all the laughs.
  • Dada of two
    Great podcast!
    Very entertaining. I enjoy hearing the different perspectives on wrestling from the English POV. The old school fan/nube dynamic is magic!
  • stewart clifon
    Yesss!!
    Best wrestling podcast. Actually, it’s the only one I’ve listened to.
  • Eightbitjedi
    Best wrestling pod ever

  • Mike Gellatly
    Fantastic listen
    Great mix of normal and nerd views on the landmark shows in professional wrestling. Pete Donaldson is a witty, charming buffoon, as always, and a perfect foil to Mark and his tragically-deep knowledge of the art form. Basque in the horrible history of Wrestlemanias past. Well worth a listen.
  • Shaznay Lewis
    This is a wrestling podcast about wrestling
    I used to listen to a wide array of podcasts on different subjects like science, art, politics and history. But now I just listen to this podcast about wrestling.
  • Riponian
    Don’t listen to anything else!
    Until you have listened to Wrestle Me! Its so wonderful I listen to the same episode twice a week!! Please don't stop Marc and Pete!
  • Lilshmily
    This is a good show
    It's funny and I like the hosts. If I were from the U.K. I'd say it's bloody "brilliant" and I'd love to have a "pint" with these chaps and make them me "mates"
  • Briefly Irritable
    A Perfect Treat
    Hearing Mark and Pete giggle about wrestlers and describe wrestling events I have no interest in watching is just the kind of zany entertainment I need after watching Bojack Horseman for the 44th time. If only they graced my podcast queue more than once a week :’(
  • BalorIsOurBoy
    Great Insight
    Really well researched podcast that gives a fantastic insight into the behind the scenes mayhem of sports entertainment. Genuinely hilarious at points - looking forward to hearing more.
  • AdamCarruthers
    So good that I’m forced to write my first review
    Never written a review before but felt I just had to share my thoughts on an excellent wrestling podcast. Being roughly the same age as the hosts, it operates as a trip down memory lane plus highly informative for me, knowing things I wouldn’t have known because I was too young to know (and no internet!). Unlike plenty of wrestling podcasts, it’s not too dry, has plenty of humour whilst maintaining a love of wrestling and it’s history . Having one host as the Google of wrestling and the other as a fresh set of eyes for less hardcore wrestling fans works wonders as well (helps that they are obviously great friends too). Highly recommended !!!
  • Mumakata
    Absolutely hilarious
    This show is a fantastic look back at the formative years of Wrestlemania. I can’t wait for the next episode!
  • Lewis Aisle
    Perfect
    I’m not sure if you can ask for a better wrestling podcast today. The hosts are so genuinely fascinated by the WrestleMania cards they’re watching, even when the cards are horrible, that it’s infectious. And as an American from the north, their impression is spot on.
  • funboyben
    Surprisingly good!
    The trailer doesn’t do it justice, but ended up really enjoying this podcast. Perfect blend of review of wrestlemania, history, behind the scenes, where are they now and evolution over the years. All wrapped up in a light hearted way. Great chemistry between the two!
  • Cabsuarez7
    Really funny look back at wrestlemania
    Laughed out loud quite a few times. Really looking forward to more episodes
