As wrestlers continue to branch out with other ventures outside of the squared circle, AEW has announced that Scorpio Sky will be hosting a new podcast on the Rooster Teeth network called Wrestling With The Week:

December 16, 2020 — Rooster Teeth and All Elite Wrestling announced a new weekly lifestyle podcast, Wrestling With The Week, hosted by AEW sensation Scorpio Sky and Funhaus co-creative director James Willems.

Each 30-minute episode gives wrestling and gaming fans insider looks at the week in wrestling, gaming, sports, movies, and more. Produced by Eric Baudour (The Rooster Teeth Podcast, Mega64), the premiere episode of Wrestling With The Week debuts in audio and video streaming formats worldwide on Jan. 18, 2021. Wrestling With The Week is represented by Rooster Teeth’s The Roost Podcast Network, and is executive produced by Activist Artist Management and Tony Khan, CEO, GM, and Head of Creative of AEW.
