From WrestleMania to Arrowhead Stadium, this episode runs straight through the chaos.

On In the Ropes, we break down the growing rumors of Vince McMahon potentially buying back WWE, the likelihood of arbitration and settlement in the Janel Grant case, and WWE’s decision to block independent watch parties. We also look at the road to WrestleMania with LA Knight possibly missing the show, Bianca Belair finally getting surgery on her long-damaged knuckle, and we grade a fantasy booking of WrestleMania—what works, what doesn’t, and what WWE would never actually do.

Then we shift gears to 4th & Deep, where it’s full armchair-GM mode as we break down the Kansas City Chiefs—roster decisions, front-office philosophy, and what the Chiefs should be doing if fans actually had the keys.

Wrestling politics, legal messes, injury fallout, and football hypotheticals—one episode, no filler.

On this episode of the Slapping Meat Community Show, I fully step into Armchair GM mode for the New England Patriots — and this time it’s all about roster management.

Free agency’s already on the table… now comes the harder part.

We dig into:

• Who actually deserves a roster spot vs. who’s just dead cap in shoulder pads
• Extensions, restructures, and cuts — where do you save money and where do you double down?
• Core players vs. replaceable pieces — who are you building around for the next 3–5 years?
• Depth chart truth serum — where the Patriots think they’re strong vs. where they’re lying to themselves
• Draft philosophy meets roster reality — how needs, contracts, and timelines should shape every pick

This isn’t Madden fantasy booking — it’s real-world GM logic. Cold decisions. Long-term thinking. No emotional attachments to mid players just because they’re “Patriots guys.”

If you were running the front office, what would you do after free agency dust settles?

This episode lays out the blueprint — and invites the Slapping Meat community to argue with it.
