It's almost All Hallow's Eve, and with the wrestling world watching Hulk Hogan signing with TNA, everyone has one question on their mind... Trick, or Treat?

This week, Ian and Adam are joined by Bryan Williams from THQ as we talk about the newly released WWE SmackDown vs Raw 2010 video game. We've also got two copies of the game on the Xbox 360 to give away, while we also talk about Desmond Wolfe's debut, future WWE plans, and much more!

We'll also have a preview of this weekend's Hell in a Cell pay-per-view, plus we talk about Buddy Wayne, TNA, Al Sharpton vs Ben Roethlisberger, Ring of Honor, Trish Stratus' new video game... plus your chance to win a copy of 12 Rounds (in the UK only, sadly!)

Ringside is back this week, as we take a scan over another action packed week of news, as we deal with plenty of departures, as UFC faced losing two of it's top names, while WWE said bye-bye to Lilian Garcia.

We're also joined for half an hour by Maffew - best known as the creator of the hit YouTube series of Botchamania videos (with one F-bomb for effect! you have been warned!), as he talks about wrestling, botches, and a whole lot more! We also touch upon more from WWE, including next week's controversial guest host of Raw, Jim Cornette's departure from TNA, and a lot more about the Hulkamania promotion that's hitting Australia in November!

We've also got a joint Event Center this week, as Ian and Adam run down this weekend's UFC and TNA pay-per-views, a peek into the future as WWE recycle more matches (except this time, they're in Hell in a Cell!), and look into the future house shows and indie shows!

Ringside celebrates its first new-look show (and second anniversary) with a blast! Ian Hamilton and Adam Firestorm return to the show with improved sound comes a new format, a new look, and a star guest.

A few days ahead of a two-date run in Portimao, Portugal with the World Stars of Wrestling promotion, we're joined by ROB VAN DAM as he talks about his latest tour of Europe, as well as a look back to his long career in ECW and WWE, how fans still continue to react to him today and whether he would consider a return to a full-time schedule.

We also ask Rob about his time with the Nu Wrestling Evolution, and his experiences of helping train the Ultimate Warrior for his comeback match last year. Rob also tells us about how much (or little) wrestling he watches nowadays, before we wrap up with a quick game of word association featuring some of RVD’s former bosses.

On top of that, Ian and Adam talk about the Dragon Gate USA pay-per-view, and why it is may not be the breath of fresh air everyone was talking about... plus a preview of this weekend's Breaking Point pay-per-view, alongside a look into the worlds of WWE, TNA, UFC and more!

We have the latest on Rey Mysterio's hot water that just keeps getting hotter, the latest ROH star to head to WWE, and what that means for Ring of Honor. Will they be able to recover after losing Bryan Danielson as well - and how did they rebound after they lost key talent to TNA several years ago? Will they be able to repeat this recovery?

We'll also talk about Daniels' DUI, TNA departures, the final word on our move next week, and a load more! Check out our Twitter feed and follow us @ringsidelive [intro music: "Throb" by Speed Limit 35]
