I had every intention of putting out 3 weeks of November TV reviews as part of this week’s episode as well (everything leading into the Survivor Series), but as you’ll hear at the end of the show a family emergency happened and it delayed the second half of what was originally intended to be part of this episode. Please stay tuned to Wrestlecopia.com, our social media accounts, or subscribe to our show at your favorite podcast streaming app in order to check back often to see when the next episode of the Grenade drops. The next episode, #53, will drop no later than the middle of next week and will feature all of the TV Reviews (3 weeks worth) leading into the Survivor Series 93 PPV.  Thanks again for your continued support of the Grenade and WCPN!
