Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, this is Brian Alvarez and this is today's edition
of the Wrestling Observer Daily podcast on the eight Side Network.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Live from San Francisco. I'm a Sports Byline Broadcasting network.
You are listening to Wrestling Observer Live with your hosts,
Brian Alvarez and Mike Sempervv.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Are you ready?
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Are you ready?
Speaker 4 (00:25):
Let's get it off.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Let's get it Mike Sempervv here with you for the
next hour talking about professional wrestling, which is something we
do every single day here on the Sports Byline Broadcasting Network.
Tune in, iHeart American Forces Radio, Cable Radio Network, two
Sports Byline dot Com over the air affiliates. Maybe you're
listening via podcast or video streaming on Twitch or YouTube.
(00:52):
However you're joining us today, just like to say thank you. Hopefully,
wherever you are it sunny outside, even if not, hopefully
it's sunny inside your mind. Nice out here today on
del Marva. I'm not sure where it's like, what it's
like where Brian is right now. I assume he told
everybody yesterday that he would not be here. If not,
he's not here, he'll be back tomorrow. But it does
(01:15):
allow for a second straight day of Filthy, Tom Lawler
up in your ears, so there you go. He'll be
joining me after the break. Marty Garral Fat Tuesday, I'll
find out if Filthy gives up anything for Lent. There's
a lot to get into today. Last night's raw, the
big question could WWE maintain the momentum they had coming
(01:37):
out of elimination Chamber. The answer was yes. They started
it off hot, really good show from Piller to post.
It really was. But it started off really hot with
a fight and a pull apart between CM Punk and
Seth Rollins. It ended with a surprise World Women's title change.
EO Sky is your new champion after beating Rhea Ripley.
(01:57):
Does that mean it's going to be E EO and
B at WrestleMania. A press release issued today by WWE
says that that is the case, but will Real work
her way back into things we can talk about that
definitely going to talk about the big news of the day,
which is a possible injury to WWE champion Cody Rhodes,
a ruptured ear drum literally at the hand of Travis Scott.
(02:21):
Is it something that is going to keep him out
of WrestleMania. No, But to put it mildly, it is
not a optimal situation. NXTY is tonight going head to
head with the President's State of the Union address, which,
if tradition holds, will mean nothing when it comes to
how nxt is going to fare in the ratings or
run down what they have planned for tonight, plus a
(02:42):
lot of an Italian nighthart news, all of a sudden
WWE filing for a new trademark ratings news, and much
much more. Dothy joins me after the break Wrestling Observer Live.

Wrestling big what a big, weekend and you weren't here
yesterday to talk about. It we got to hear your
thoughts on all that's.
Speaker 3 (07:47):

ABOUT i figured you, say like The Big News's Power
slap is going to be available for free on YouTube
and you can watch page bands hand slap everybody.
Speaker 6 (07:58):
AROUND i guess, no but thank you for that. INFORMATION
i do think that people needed to hear. That, Actually
Power slap will be taking place This friday as well
at The Fountain blue and you can find that here
in the last. Ballroom, yes, yeah ahead OF ufc three,
thirteen which this will probably be the only time we
(08:19):
talk about it this entire, week even though it'll be
the highest grossing professional wrestling action of the entire. Week but,
yeah big fight, Week Big Wrestling weekend as. Well Professional
wrestling aw has a pay per view and just tons
and tons of news coming out OF.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Wwe, yeah, Well Cody rhodes has got to be the biggest.
News AND i don't know if he suffered a ruptured
ear drum or. Not he took some trauma to that,
ear that is for. Sure apparently he's got a black
eye as well due to the slap he received From
Travis scott after he was beaten down By John cena
On Saturday night At Elimination. Chamber on last Night's, raw
(09:02):
was announced That cody would address THE wwe universe On
Friday Night, SmackDown and a lot of, people Oh, GOD
i would have Killed Travis scott when he got to the. Back. Yeah,
probably maybe you would. Have but it's hard to Blame Travis,
scott who is a guy that was PROBABLY i don't,
know burning stage in the, ring but he is not
(09:22):
a tream. Fighter he is known to be the highest
in the. Room, yes, so and he was going sicko
mode out, there that's for. Sure Cody rhoades is laying
there on his face And scott measures him, up and you,
know maybe he was trying to his. Cheek, look you
have a guy that is not a trained professional out
(09:43):
there and just in slap him and yeahs energy here
and these. Happened this, thing these things.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
Happen they talk about synergy all the time between these.
Products we Got Power slap coming up On. Friday what
better way to promote it than in the main event
Of Elimination chamber with With Travis scott out there Whacking
Cody rhodes in a face as hard as he possibly could.
AFTER i, mean that's that stage must be a dangerous
(10:11):
thing to. Smoke you.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Know maybe it's FOR D, chess maybe we're missing this
is what we think it's going to, be but it's
actual or by FOR D, chess it's Actually John cena
in the hip hop, community And John cena And Travis
scott will to get together And John cena will do
an update of His trademark album from back in the.
Speaker 6 (10:33):
DAY i, ACTUALLY i actually do think because there's been
a lot of talk About Travis scott preparing to wrestle
on a. Match probably along the way In John cena's
retirement tour towards the, end he could do some celebrity
tag team match With Travis. Scott in there As John
cena's you, know back to his rapping ways of a
(10:55):
babyface before ruthless.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Aggression let's say you were talked into, That, okay you're
gonna lay there And Travis scott is gonna slap you
upside the head because that'll put the icing on this
cake of the. Insult after being laid out, There, okay
and that happens and you get hit in the air
and you possibly rupt your your ear? Drum is the
first thing you do when you go to the. Back
do you Slap Travis scott or do you slap the
(11:18):
agent and whoever came up with this, idea because it
isn't really more on them than it Is Travis. SCOTT i, mean,
honestly if it comes to you have somebody who doesn't
know what they're doing and this accident, HAPPENS.
Speaker 6 (11:31):
I, mean do you think this was something that was
talked about in the. Back do you think they, said,
like we're gonna we're gonna pin him, Down we're gona
Have Travis scott wind up and whack. Him or did
this just happen in the heat of? Things you, know
did did? WELL i Did cody in the? Back Did
cody The, okay If tom don't run me over, here
don't run me.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Over i'm Not i'm not gonna dave.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
You but, look steamroller coming.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Out let's just stop right. There if it happened in
the heat of the, moment then then you go to
the back in my, opinion and you give it right
back To Travis scott because you got too caught up
in the moment and now you have to pay for,
this especially IF i have damage to my. Ear i'm
gonna get a little revenge back on you in the.
Back BUT i could see it being planned where they, said,
(12:16):
look he's gonna slap, you maybe upside the, head on
the top of the. Head maybe he was supposed to hit.
Cheek but even THEN i bet it was supposed to
be just upside the. Head and well he ended up
cupping his. Ear.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Yeah well another thing is do you Think cody goes
in the back and he's, like, oh, MAN i KNOW
i have a ruptured ear. Drum, no he's probably thinking, like,
OH i got hit somewhere out. There this is killing.
Me but you probably didn't know the severity of the.
Injury and you, know if there's anybody that's professional It's Cody,
rhodes So i'm sure he was, unhappy But i'm sure
(12:52):
it was dealt with in a professional. MANNER i you, know.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
You Like Travis scott Is. Robin he was doing a
good cosplay On Saturday. NIGHT i, THOUGHT i.
Speaker 6 (13:07):
Don't look who was going to be His Carl. Malone oh, God.
DRAKE i mean he fits the profile.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Right my favorite match On Saturday night Was Kevin owens
In Sammy's Ain and When brian told me you can
have the day, off it, said, Fine we'll go make pasta.
SAUCE i got some THINGS i needed to, do and
that's WHAT i. Did BUT i wanted him to say
that that was my favorite match of the, night and
(13:36):
that's my match of the year so, far for this,
year and for two. Reasons one because the match was
awesome AND i didn't know how these Two i've seen
do everything, Before how could they actually kind of up?
It and they did, that AND i thought it was.
Great they had mood. Lighting you didn't think about it
because these two were just killing each. Other it was
a hardcore match at the end of the, day with
(13:57):
all the plunder and all that stuff that they. Use
it was a hardcore, match and it proves again if
you got the right two, people you got the right
story and the right emotion and the right credibility of two,
people you could have all the weapons in the world
in there and it could still be the match of the.
Year and, Again i'm like a goldfish anymore with my
memory when it comes to rolodexing things. Quickly maybe there
(14:20):
have been a ton of other great matches this, year
but it recently at least that's my.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
Favorite, Well Gabe kid And Kenny. Omega that was. Awesome, yeah,
Yeah so there have been a number of good. MATCHES
i don't know that this would be my match of the.
Year it was a very good, match AND i think
(14:46):
it was a good cap to this feud for. Now,
obviously these guys are gonna be intertwined for their, careers
for the rest of their, lives you, know so to move,
Away like you mentioned On, friday you predicted this would
have And Randy orton came out at the, end and
now it looks like we're gonna move on To Kevin
owens And Randy orton probably At, WrestleMania And sammy's ain
(15:11):
should be on the shelf for a little. BIT i
don't think we should see him for a while and,
maybe you, know maybe he makes his return At WrestleMania,
there but.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
That would be a great. Match, yeah and they you,
know they will talk about it when it comes to
rawl a little bit later on when we review. It
but you, know they Mentioned sammy's ain has reaggravated his neck.
Injury he's going to be out for quite some. Time and,
yes we still have quite some time to go Before,
WrestleMania about what's six weeks. Away but last night they
really started to lay out some matches and some things moving,
(15:42):
forward which, included you, know the possibility of Aj styles
And Logan Paul drew McIntyre And Damian priest is something
THAT i think is going to be, coming but Also
Randy orton And Kevin owens seems to be a guarantee For.
Rustlemania it's just a matter of to, me what's Sipulation
you go and put on that. Match we'll be Back
(16:03):

Speaker 6 (17:42):
You, know you know WHAT i was thinking, earlier not
to like deflect off, that but my dream person to
see In Blood sport right now would Be. Otis really and,
YEAH i Mean Greco roman champion. Wrestler how awesome Would?
Otis Says Shinya. Aoki Be. Ashley can you imagine that.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
That would be something? Else i'm trying to think. Of
who was? It? Oh, god was It gono who threw
the knee bar? On it was one of those big,
large you, know large guy for small guy matchups where
it was just like it was a flying knee bar
or something like, that rolling and got the. SUBMISSION i
(18:28):
mean we've seen probably, man, yeah probably was in The
pashido days or something like. That but these shows obviously
are right up your. Alley everybody on there is a
fan of the, grappling that is for. Sure is there
anybody that you would want to? Face it doesn't, Matter
i'm sure to you who they put in front of,
(18:49):
You but are there? Anybody is there anybody out there

Speaker 6 (18:56):
Shinya, aoki if we're looking at this, list you, KNOW
i don't know when ELSE i would get a chance
to face. Him it's not like he makes many appearances
in THE. Us he's a Wrestling Timothy, THATCHER i believe
in the D dt show that will take place also
at The, Palms SO i don't know if they're gonna
run that back at Blood. Sport, maybe but that's a
guy WHO i don't know when ELSE i would get
(19:17):
a chance to lock horns with, Him so that would
be One i'd be interested. In but they're All they're,
all you, know tough. Guys i've wrestled a few of them,
already so you, know always good action at Blood, sport
one of the best pre eminent events of these big

GOOD i don't. Know let's see Mir yamashta is obviously
the only other woman that has been, announced BUT i don't.

probably mind, seeing and it probably wouldn't.
Speaker 6 (20:00):
LEAVE tna is running at the same, time oh head to, have.

Speaker 6 (24:20):
SHOW i just that's exactly WHAT i was gonna. Say
tom gave them to. YOU i have nothing else to.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
ADD nxt tonight on THE cw and internationally On netflix
from THE pc In. Orlando last week was a really good,
show unlike this show, today which is setting new, lows
which is something with me hosting. It that show ended
up doing a really good. Number this one it's probably
gonna fall off a little. Bit it was NXT's best
show in a, month seven hundred and ninety Nine Bad
(24:49):
people at point one nine in the eighteen to forty
nine year old. Demo, tonight it does go up against
The state Of Reunion state of The union address By President.
Trump and as we've talked about plenty of times when
it comes TO, nxt even though real life stories and
situations will AFFECT aw and to a certain, Degree SmackDown
(25:10):
And raw when it was ON, USA nxd seems to
be one of the most bulletproof. Shows so we'll see
if their good luck keeps. Up this, WEEK Tna World
Tag Team champions The Hardy boys have announced been announced
as Appearing North american title on the, Line Tony DiAngelo
Against Sean, Spears Klannie jordan Against Jada, Parker WOMEN'S Us
(25:32):
Champion Chelsea green And Piper niven face off Against Soul
ruka And. Zaria and this is all leading to THE
nxt stand and deliver next Pl WrestleMania, Weekend april nineteenth
from T. Mobile, actually we're going to get though the
Special roadblock episode OF nxt coming, up and it has
(25:54):
been announced today By ava on social media that we
are going to get A New York city street fight
Between Javon evans And Ethan. Page and as street fights
go In New York, city. Anymore you can't be caught
with a, gun so we know that won't be used up.
There can you imagine the violence here Between javon And Ethan,
page and Will javon gets some revenge and Stomp Ethan
(26:17):
page's jaw As ethan?
Speaker 6 (26:19):
Did IS i, mean quite, frankly For brian's, SAKE i hope.
NOT i Hope Ethan page keeps beating On Javon evans
so we get to hear about it on every show
That brian gets the host or talk on at. All but, Uh,
(26:39):
Mike one of the REASONS i think why THE nxt
numbers so bulletproof is a large portion of that audience
can't change the channel with their hand down their. Pants so.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Are you saying that the is that because of the
the best women's division as they have claimed h call,
themselves or is that just because of the show in?
General do you think people you, know See obafemi and
get excited or are you are you kind of putting
this all on The julias And corrige aides of the.
Speaker 6 (27:11):
WORLD i thought it was a comment we could just
move on.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
From oh, oh well you threw it out. There no,
bread no, water just me we'll be, back rusting observer.
Speaker 10 (27:25):
Alive i'm holding in my hand The american Silver eagle.

With Brian alfarez And mike Simper vivi on The Sports
Byline Broadcasting.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Network back to the show of A Living. Dad mike
simper viv here with you along With Filthy Tom lawler
filling in very poorly For Brian alvarez, today but that's.
Okay we do three hundred and sixty five days of
these shows in some combination. Filthy we do about what
one hundred of them every? Year this is by far our.
Speaker 6 (31:36):
WORST i don't. Know don't make promises you can't. Keep that's.
True there's been some nuggets in, there as.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
As Robert fuller once said To Jerry, jarrett When Jerry
jarrett looked At Robert fuller's booking and noticed.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
That they are thought you were going to say something.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
ELSE a bunch of Empty this has been a long
day for, YOU a bunch of empty seats. Everywhere you, Know,
ROBERT i don't think you can get much, worse And
robert was Offendeds, oh yes it. Can we're on the
right path. There right after that From Tom, lawler what
are you talking? About is? Uh? Uh with never. Mind
On march, SECOND wwe trademark the term The culling and
(32:16):
Is Joseph courrier noted in his report on our. Website
while there's been no confirmation of what the trademark is,
for there are a couple OF nxt groups that do
not have names. Yet And, tom if you had to
attach the name The culling to a, group would it
be To Dion, Lennox The bookworm and his new, group
or would it be For Sean spears and his collection
(32:38):
of wacky.
Speaker 6 (32:39):
MISFITS i don't, know that's an awful name regarding Male Ky.
Speaker 3 (32:44):
Black is he gonna do some?
Speaker 6 (32:45):
Magic?
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Maybe dom And i'm Saying dom D m this. Time
could you look up that definition for us? Please as
you go ahead and do, That i'll move on To
raw last? NIGHT i got? It what is? It the official?
Speaker 9 (33:08):
Definition the act of removing individuals from a group based
on certain characteristics can also be used for, animals, employees
or other.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
Groups so if we use that in the, sentence it's
possible after today's show That Brian alvarez will do some
culling from the ranks of hosts of this. Show absolutely
after the elimination chamber Of highlight. Package last Night's raw
kicked off with an incredible cmpunk. Promo he stormed down
(33:37):
to the, rank kicked over the prime, display jumped onto
the announced. Table he cut his promo right to the.
Camera he Called rock a bald, fraud bald bald. Fraud
he called himself middle aged and crazy and said he
felt like hell to get into the main event At,
mania while The rock just walked in and big timed.
Everyone punk told him to stop pretending like he loved the.
Business he would never stoop to wearing a fake title,
(33:59):
belt and he'd never sell his. Soul he then tore
Into John. Cena after twenty years now everyone can see
what he knew all, along which is What John cena
was just full of. Bs punk said that he'd see
both of the bald frauds down the, road and then
transitioned to Seth. Rollins punk said That Becky lynch better
come get her man before he put him in a.
(34:19):
Wheelchair rollins music. Hits he comes, Out he's not dressed
Like liberachi's. Stylist punk jumps off the. Desk he starts
running up the. Ramp rollins was waiting for. Him it
was on from, there, brawl pull, apart, brawl break, away pull,
apart constant with that as they went into a commercial.
Break if you pay for the top tier Of, netflix
(34:41):
you would see that they started brawling. Again and then
when we got back from, break it was a segment
with the Judgment. Dave but this whole thing went FOR
i don't know about ten twelve minutes and a hell
of a way to start the, show especially coming off
of that great show On Saturday.
Speaker 6 (34:57):
Night, YEAH i thought this was fa, fantastic what a hot,
start and it was exactly what it should have. Been
these guys hate each other and based on their, actions
you could, tell, boy they wasted no time as soon
as they saw each. Other it was on. Site they're
Like Peter griffin and The. Chicken they just will not
stop going at. It AND i thought it was one
(35:18):
of the better brawls THAT i can, remember you, know
really just great work for both.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Guys i'm gonna say the live, rounds but a couple
of a couple of potatoes in, there.
Speaker 6 (35:29):
A couple Of Travis scott esque.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
Shots just, said both guys seemed to be glad to
be taking in, this so just a they did a great.
Speaker 6 (35:38):
Job and, Yeah punk shot a nice single, leg although
somehow he ended up on bottom in THAT i don't,
understand but, yeah good use of HIS mma skills there
By cmpunk during that, brawl and.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
They ended up being a theme throughout the. Show another
theme throughout the show was references to what happened On Saturday.
Night this was very MUCH Wwe to me right, now
feels very much like when a wrestling promotion is hot
like in eighty six to me growing up With, krock
AND i always like going back to reference that because
that's WHAT wwe is that like right, now and you
(36:12):
have so many hot, people you have so many things
intertwined and so many different feuds and personalities intertwined with each,
other but there is always one thing that is kind
of the overarching thing that anybody can talk about at any,
time and that in this case Is John cena and
the deal With Cody, rhoades and that was mentioned many.
(36:32):
Times many video packages brought up through the. Show they
saved the last big one if people didn't Watch Elimination.
Chamber they saved the one With cody actually getting slapped
and showing the beat down until much later on in the.
Show but they talked about it with some people throughout the,
show which included Aj styles at one. Point but before
(36:53):
we get into, That Judgment day was backstage in the,
Clubhouse liv And raquel were celebrating their title with carl And,
dom But finn was all depressed on the. Couch When
liv asked about, him he started. Shading everybody said that
live lost in the, Chamber carlito And dom were embarrassed
by Braun breaker last, week And dom cut in to, say,
well if we had another, member But finn cut him
(37:14):
off one more time and, said we don't need another member.
Tonight he'd be the one that takes care of Braun.
Breaker we then Got gunther Against, otis non title, match
everything that you would want this thing to. Be brian
just was in rapture talking about it On observer last. Night,
Obviously otis is a guy that you expressed your appreciation
(37:36):
for a little bit earlier on TOM a hell of a.
CHARACTER i would like to see this guy actually do.
More and even in losing the fact that he stood
up The, gunther Got gunther, down stood up to him
in the chop, battle which no one's ever been able
to really do, before and get the advantage. There it
was actually a really good night for. Him if they
(37:57):
decided to move him into A Inner continent OR us
title picture at some point down the.
Speaker 12 (38:02):
Line five years they, said five years ago he was
mister money in the bank was.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
And what has happened since? Then he has been buried
repeatedly over and over and he is still he's infinitely.
Over like you, mentioned what a great character This this otis,
guy like when they decide, like holy, crap like we've
had this guy the whole, time now's the time to
(38:36):
go with. Him when they finally decide to do, it
the crowd is gonna be there for, it AND i can't.
Wait i'll have to for a long.
Speaker 13 (38:43):
Time probably he's gonna be like the, man be Like Mark,
henry you, know like when he's at the twilight of his,
career when he's heading, out that's where he's gonna be
doing his best work because they're gonna give him a.
Speaker 6 (38:55):
Ball then it's.
Speaker 3 (38:56):
Nice to See Clay weeda still up. Right he was
showing in the. Crowd they were kind of random being
In buffalo that they broke out the cave.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
Man good to see him still standing. Upright as you, mentioned,
yes the.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
Old carpenter Aj styles was interviewed About John cena's term
When Carrying cross interrupted, him and again this is one
of those times where they talked to somebody else who
had nothing to do with the situation On saturday night
about their thoughts on seeing his turn But Carrying cross interrupting.
Him he's now got an empty, group you, know depending
on if the miz is still hanging out With Carrying
(39:26):
cross or. Not it seems Like Carrying cross would actually
be a good guy for The Judgment day to take,
on you, know if they wanted to add somebody to the,
group because in that way you could also add a
little drama there if you wanted to Between scarlet And,
live because at some Point live is going to be
back on the Baby pace side of. THINGS i would, Think.
Speaker 6 (39:47):
Yeah i'm with you on that. ONE i don't know
Where Carrying cross fits in. Here he's always seemingly been
tied to groups for a large portion of his time,
here and now The Final testament's. Gone you want to
talk about guys THAT I i'd like to, see not
The Final. Testament i'm. Sorry whatever that group, was is.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
That just what it, was wasn't?
Speaker 11 (40:05):
It?
Speaker 6 (40:05):
Yeah oh, yeah, Yeah Final. Testament i'd love to see
aop in that Blood sport ring as. Well you, know that'd.
Speaker 3 (40:12):
Be there two guys. Again you, KNOW i don't know
what their interests, are if there's would be interest in
them From. Japan but, again those guys going over there
and like wrecking shop against The Sayato brothers or something like,
that you put them, in you, know you know they
would actually be that would actually be. Fantastic, AGAIN i
don't know it would be worth their while or. Not
in Her Continental women's Title Lyra valkyri Against Ivy nile
(40:34):
just didn't get a lot of heat for this. Match
the story Was nile working Over lyra's left. Leg she
had a long ankle lock On lyra and noted as
a tribute to her Coach Chad. Gable that was finally
broken When lyra hit the ropes and finished. Game When
nile missed a boot in the. Corner lyra hit a,
backbreaker followed it up with the Night wing for the.
Pin it was, fine you, know decent. Match after that,
(40:56):
Seth rollins was shown being escorted through the bowels of the.
Building When Jackie redman caught up to him to interview,
him he SPOTS Cm, punk who's also being escorted by.
Security they begin brawling again after a break at In
pierce is Scolding rolins for Attacking punk. Again long story
short of matches made Between rollins And punk for next
(41:16):
Week's raw inside a steel cage In Madison Square. Garden
do you think that's where that ends Before, WrestleMania, WELL.
Speaker 6 (41:26):
I think there's. NO i don't KNOW i would got
to think That Roman reigns gets back involved in this
in some, manner AND.
Speaker 3 (41:37):
I you, know you can make a case For punk
to be involved in The Sena Cody rhodes, match and
actually you could put the belt On punk coming In.
Mania the obvious one, though is a Seth Roman REIGNS Cm.
Punk that's WHAT i kind of figured was going to.
Happen BUT i guess we can see that to me
is the more likely. Thing but it'll be interesting to,
(41:59):
see you, know if they, go if they have a
finish in that, match or if it Isn't Madison Square,
garden Does Roman reigns come back and you, know again
who knows what's going to happen, There but we'll have
to wait and see next. Week Olivik kaiser promo there's
another one where if you Have netflix and can watch
during the, break it is his him sauntering out. There
(42:21):
As pat McAfee And Michael cole, Described kaiser coming to
the ring was, ridiculous he said when it was back
on for, everybody kind of, promo saying that he took
back what he deserved and that was the spotlight That
penta had been. Receiving he, says What John sena did
To Cody rhodes another reference from somebody, Else But sena
did The rhodes Last saturday will be nothing compared to
(42:42):
what he'll do To. Penta penta then came down to the.
Ring the two began, fighting And penta cleared the ring from,
him hit a running flip dive from over the, ring
over the top rope to the floor on top Of,
kaiser and that was. That bianca Bel air was interviewed
By Kathy. Kelly bianca says she's reserving comment on the
jade nail. Situation she feels guilty because even though she's
(43:03):
sad about what, happened she's equally proud of herself for
winning the. Chamber there's no way she's not a. Heel
there's no way she doesn't get dragged into the jade.
Thing no.
Speaker 6 (43:11):
Way it's just so convoluted to, me like why was
she she was in a match when the attack was
played on the screen or the aftermath of the. Attack
why did she run off during the, Match like did
she help perpetrate the? Attack it just thought she was
gonna get away with, it and then it was shocked
that they flashed on the, screen so she ran back.
(43:33):
There you, know there's obviously an unanswered.
Speaker 3 (43:35):
Questions did anyone ask the question what would The rock
And John cena have done IF cm punk would have
won the? Match BECAUSE i think?
Speaker 6 (43:47):
Yeah or what If cody had accepted the?
Speaker 3 (43:49):
Offer, yeah that's another. One then they just all.
Speaker 6 (43:53):
Celebrate, yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
Is just?
Speaker 3 (43:56):
There like yeah? Exactly maybe everybody would have got a
weight belt that Said cody and they all could have
pose with. IT i don't. Know Viking raiders and The
creed brothers they got. Together, hey we don't have much, Time,
tom But Brutus creed four Fifty Julie's crease shooting Star.
PRESS i love that they can do. IT i love
that they did, it but in a match that they're
not gonna win on just a random. Raw it was
(44:17):
a fun, match but should they have broken those moves, out.
Speaker 6 (44:21):
They probably could have saved.
Speaker 3 (44:22):
It Chad, gable have you ever walked past the meat
market In? Tijuana, tom what the hell was? This there's
a box that apparently Doctor Wagner junior had or something like.
THAT i don't. Know long story, short five hundred dollars
was paid to this. Man Chad gable goes open the
(44:42):
box and we don't see what it. Is they went
to break like we have to do right, Now we'll
be back with the rest of the Show Wrestumes.
Speaker 2 (44:51):
Everlive you are listening To Wrestling Observer live With Brian
(45:15):
alvarez And mike Simper vivi on The Sports Byline Broadcasting.
Speaker 3 (45:19):
Network back on the, Show mike simper vv And Filthy
Tom lawler here to put a bow on this, thing
including a bow on the. Raw review video package From
Dragon Lea cruz Del toro Walking wild In Ray. Mystereo
this is about as cool as they've ever. Looked doing
the promo package that they had a lot of people
thinking that they're going to turn On Ray, mystereo which
(45:40):
would lead To phoenix coming in and him partnering. UP
i don't, know, Man andrade's still out. THERE i, mean
there's a lot of things you could. Do would you
turn all these guys On? Ray that to me seems,
like you, know really.
Speaker 6 (45:53):
Cliche it, Does BUT i, mean what else are they
going to do with this LW Whoa sure it's given
some guys like well it has and they do a
lot more than l W o. Does come, On, so
LIKE i think it's run its course to be. Fair but.
Speaker 3 (46:16):
Women's title, Match Ria, Ripley Eos, guy what's your? THING i,
mean obviously it was a hell of a, match surprise
finish BECAUSE i DIDN'T i, honestly if you would have
said you have to put money on, something Either sina's
gonna turn Or Ria ripley's gonna lose that, BELT i
would have put it on scenea turning BEFORE i put
it On. Rhea but they've announced today that is going
to Be Eos guy And bianca and Wrestle. Mania that
(46:38):
doesn't mean things can't. Change we've heard a lot about
disruptions taking. Place what do you?
Speaker 6 (46:43):
Think, YEAH i think they did such a great job
getting that that final shot of the three of them
at the elimination, chamber that that is going to be the.
MATCH i don't know how they're gonna get. THERE i.
Am i'm surprised THAT eo, won But i'm not so prize, that,
uh you, know it looks like it could end up
be in a three.
Speaker 3 (47:03):
Way and even though they don't like doing things like
this and it's not you, know suggested historically that you
do things like this when you're so, hot you can
actually change up a match even at that, level If
jade is the one who comes in and Takes bianca
out and we have a match between them and we
end up WITH eo And rickley again in a rematch At. WrestleMania,
(47:27):
golthy thank you so much for saving us again on
the show. Today thank you talk to everybody again after a.
Speaker 1 (47:34):
While you have been listening to The Wrestling Observer daily
podcast on the Eight Side. Network
Hey, this is Brian Alvarez and this is today's edition
of the Wrestling Observer Daily podcast on the eight Side Network.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Live from San Francisco. I'm a Sports Byline Broadcasting network.
You are listening to Wrestling Observer Live with your hosts,
Brian Alvarez and Mike Sempervv.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Are you ready?
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Are you ready?
Speaker 4 (00:25):
Let's get it off.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
Let's get it Mike Sempervv here with you for the
next hour talking about professional wrestling, which is something we
do every single day here on the Sports Byline Broadcasting Network.
Tune in, iHeart American Forces Radio, Cable Radio Network, two
Sports Byline dot Com over the air affiliates. Maybe you're
listening via podcast or video streaming on Twitch or YouTube.
(00:52):
However you're joining us today, just like to say thank you. Hopefully,
wherever you are it sunny outside, even if not, hopefully
it's sunny inside your mind. Nice out here today on
del Marva. I'm not sure where it's like, what it's
like where Brian is right now. I assume he told
everybody yesterday that he would not be here. If not,
he's not here, he'll be back tomorrow. But it does
(01:15):
allow for a second straight day of Filthy, Tom Lawler
up in your ears, so there you go. He'll be
joining me after the break. Marty Garral Fat Tuesday, I'll
find out if Filthy gives up anything for Lent. There's
a lot to get into today. Last night's raw, the
big question could WWE maintain the momentum they had coming
(01:37):
out of elimination Chamber. The answer was yes. They started
it off hot, really good show from Piller to post.
It really was. But it started off really hot with
a fight and a pull apart between CM Punk and
Seth Rollins. It ended with a surprise World Women's title change.
EO Sky is your new champion after beating Rhea Ripley.
(01:57):
Does that mean it's going to be E EO and
B at WrestleMania. A press release issued today by WWE
says that that is the case, but will Real work
her way back into things we can talk about that
definitely going to talk about the big news of the day,
which is a possible injury to WWE champion Cody Rhodes,
a ruptured ear drum literally at the hand of Travis Scott.
(02:21):
Is it something that is going to keep him out
of WrestleMania. No, But to put it mildly, it is
not a optimal situation. NXTY is tonight going head to
head with the President's State of the Union address, which,
if tradition holds, will mean nothing when it comes to
how nxt is going to fare in the ratings or
run down what they have planned for tonight, plus a
(02:42):
lot of an Italian nighthart news, all of a sudden
WWE filing for a new trademark ratings news, and much
much more. Dothy joins me after the break Wrestling Observer Live.

lawler who is a gesturing off screen right now to

Speaker 6 (07:32):
YOU i was done with the glazon because we need
to get to some big news in the world of.
Wrestling big what a big, weekend and you weren't here
yesterday to talk about. It we got to hear your
thoughts on all that's.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
HAPPENED i can't believe that that's what you want to talk.
ABOUT i figured you, say like The Big News's Power
slap is going to be available for free on YouTube
and you can watch page bands hand slap everybody.
Speaker 6 (07:58):
AROUND i guess, no but thank you for that. INFORMATION
i do think that people needed to hear. That, Actually
Power slap will be taking place This friday as well
at The Fountain blue and you can find that here
in the last. Ballroom, yes, yeah ahead OF ufc three,
thirteen which this will probably be the only time we
(08:19):
talk about it this entire, week even though it'll be
the highest grossing professional wrestling action of the entire. Week but,
yeah big fight, Week Big Wrestling weekend as. Well Professional
wrestling aw has a pay per view and just tons
and tons of news coming out OF.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Wwe, yeah, Well Cody rhodes has got to be the biggest.
News AND i don't know if he suffered a ruptured
ear drum or. Not he took some trauma to that,
ear that is for. Sure apparently he's got a black
eye as well due to the slap he received From
Travis scott after he was beaten down By John cena
On Saturday night At Elimination. Chamber on last Night's, raw
(09:02):
was announced That cody would address THE wwe universe On
Friday Night, SmackDown and a lot of, people Oh, GOD
i would have Killed Travis scott when he got to the. Back. Yeah,
probably maybe you would. Have but it's hard to Blame Travis,
scott who is a guy that was PROBABLY i don't,
know burning stage in the, ring but he is not
(09:22):
a tream. Fighter he is known to be the highest
in the. Room, yes, so and he was going sicko
mode out, there that's for. Sure Cody rhoades is laying
there on his face And scott measures him, up and you,
know maybe he was trying to his. Cheek, look you
have a guy that is not a trained professional out
(09:43):
there and just in slap him and yeahs energy here
and these. Happened this, thing these things.
Speaker 6 (09:49):
Happen they talk about synergy all the time between these.
Products we Got Power slap coming up On. Friday what
better way to promote it than in the main event
Of Elimination chamber with With Travis scott out there Whacking
Cody rhodes in a face as hard as he possibly could.
AFTER i, mean that's that stage must be a dangerous
(10:11):
thing to. Smoke you.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
Know maybe it's FOR D, chess maybe we're missing this
is what we think it's going to, be but it's
actual or by FOR D, chess it's Actually John cena
in the hip hop, community And John cena And Travis
scott will to get together And John cena will do
an update of His trademark album from back in the.
Speaker 6 (10:33):
DAY i, ACTUALLY i actually do think because there's been
a lot of talk About Travis scott preparing to wrestle
on a. Match probably along the way In John cena's
retirement tour towards the, end he could do some celebrity
tag team match With Travis. Scott in there As John
cena's you, know back to his rapping ways of a
(10:55):
babyface before ruthless.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Aggression let's say you were talked into, That, okay you're
gonna lay there And Travis scott is gonna slap you
upside the head because that'll put the icing on this
cake of the. Insult after being laid out, There, okay
and that happens and you get hit in the air
and you possibly rupt your your ear? Drum is the
first thing you do when you go to the. Back
do you Slap Travis scott or do you slap the
(11:18):
agent and whoever came up with this, idea because it
isn't really more on them than it Is Travis. SCOTT i, mean,
honestly if it comes to you have somebody who doesn't
know what they're doing and this accident, HAPPENS.
Speaker 6 (11:31):
I, mean do you think this was something that was
talked about in the. Back do you think they, said,
like we're gonna we're gonna pin him, Down we're gona
Have Travis scott wind up and whack. Him or did
this just happen in the heat of? Things you, know
did did? WELL i Did cody in the? Back Did
cody The, okay If tom don't run me over, here
don't run me.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
Over i'm Not i'm not gonna dave.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
You but, look steamroller coming.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
Out let's just stop right. There if it happened in
the heat of the, moment then then you go to
the back in my, opinion and you give it right
back To Travis scott because you got too caught up
in the moment and now you have to pay for,
this especially IF i have damage to my. Ear i'm
gonna get a little revenge back on you in the.
Back BUT i could see it being planned where they, said,
(12:16):
look he's gonna slap, you maybe upside the, head on
the top of the. Head maybe he was supposed to hit.
Cheek but even THEN i bet it was supposed to
be just upside the. Head and well he ended up
cupping his. Ear.
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Yeah well another thing is do you Think cody goes
in the back and he's, like, oh, MAN i KNOW
i have a ruptured ear. Drum, no he's probably thinking, like,
OH i got hit somewhere out. There this is killing.
Me but you probably didn't know the severity of the.
Injury and you, know if there's anybody that's professional It's Cody,
rhodes So i'm sure he was, unhappy But i'm sure
(12:52):
it was dealt with in a professional. MANNER i you, know.
Speaker 3 (12:57):
You Like Travis scott Is. Robin he was doing a
good cosplay On Saturday. NIGHT i, THOUGHT i.
Speaker 6 (13:07):
Don't look who was going to be His Carl. Malone oh, God.
DRAKE i mean he fits the profile.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
Right my favorite match On Saturday night Was Kevin owens
In Sammy's Ain and When brian told me you can
have the day, off it, said, Fine we'll go make pasta.
SAUCE i got some THINGS i needed to, do and
that's WHAT i. Did BUT i wanted him to say
that that was my favorite match of the, night and
(13:36):
that's my match of the year so, far for this,
year and for two. Reasons one because the match was
awesome AND i didn't know how these Two i've seen
do everything, Before how could they actually kind of up?
It and they did, that AND i thought it was.
Great they had mood. Lighting you didn't think about it
because these two were just killing each. Other it was
a hardcore match at the end of the, day with
(13:57):
all the plunder and all that stuff that they. Use
it was a hardcore, match and it proves again if
you got the right two, people you got the right
story and the right emotion and the right credibility of two,
people you could have all the weapons in the world
in there and it could still be the match of the.
Year and, Again i'm like a goldfish anymore with my
memory when it comes to rolodexing things. Quickly maybe there
(14:20):
have been a ton of other great matches this, year
but it recently at least that's my.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
Favorite, Well Gabe kid And Kenny. Omega that was. Awesome, yeah,
Yeah so there have been a number of good. MATCHES
i don't know that this would be my match of the.
Year it was a very good, match AND i think
(14:46):
it was a good cap to this feud for. Now,
obviously these guys are gonna be intertwined for their, careers
for the rest of their, lives you, know so to move,
Away like you mentioned On, friday you predicted this would
have And Randy orton came out at the, end and
now it looks like we're gonna move on To Kevin
owens And Randy orton probably At, WrestleMania And sammy's ain
(15:11):
should be on the shelf for a little. BIT i
don't think we should see him for a while and,
maybe you, know maybe he makes his return At WrestleMania,
there but.
Speaker 3 (15:20):
That would be a great. Match, yeah and they you,
know they will talk about it when it comes to
rawl a little bit later on when we review. It
but you, know they Mentioned sammy's ain has reaggravated his neck.
Injury he's going to be out for quite some. Time and,
yes we still have quite some time to go Before,
WrestleMania about what's six weeks. Away but last night they
really started to lay out some matches and some things moving,
(15:42):
forward which, included you, know the possibility of Aj styles
And Logan Paul drew McIntyre And Damian priest is something
THAT i think is going to be, coming but Also
Randy orton And Kevin owens seems to be a guarantee For.
Rustlemania it's just a matter of to, me what's Sipulation
you go and put on that. Match we'll be Back
(16:03):
Wrestling Observer. Live Flat.
Speaker 2 (16:22):

Speaker 5 (17:37):
That?
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Still? What two hundred and eighty pounds Large georgian, man.
Speaker 6 (17:42):
You, know you know WHAT i was thinking, earlier not
to like deflect off, that but my dream person to
see In Blood sport right now would Be. Otis really and,
YEAH i Mean Greco roman champion. Wrestler how awesome Would?
Otis Says Shinya. Aoki Be. Ashley can you imagine that.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
That would be something? Else i'm trying to think. Of
who was? It? Oh, god was It gono who threw
the knee bar? On it was one of those big,
large you, know large guy for small guy matchups where
it was just like it was a flying knee bar
or something like, that rolling and got the. SUBMISSION i
(18:28):
mean we've seen probably, man, yeah probably was in The
pashido days or something like. That but these shows obviously
are right up your. Alley everybody on there is a
fan of the, grappling that is for. Sure is there
anybody that you would want to? Face it doesn't, Matter
i'm sure to you who they put in front of,
(18:49):
You but are there? Anybody is there anybody out there
that you would love to see and face off against
on one of these? SHOWS i, mean, yeah, Actually.
Speaker 6 (18:56):
Shinya, aoki if we're looking at this, list you, KNOW
i don't know when ELSE i would get a chance
to face. Him it's not like he makes many appearances
in THE. Us he's a Wrestling Timothy, THATCHER i believe
in the D dt show that will take place also
at The, Palms SO i don't know if they're gonna
run that back at Blood. Sport, maybe but that's a
guy WHO i don't know when ELSE i would get
(19:17):
a chance to lock horns with, Him so that would
be One i'd be interested. In but they're All they're,
all you, know tough. Guys i've wrestled a few of them,
already so you, know always good action at Blood, sport
one of the best pre eminent events of these big
(19:38):
PL e weekend extravaganzas always.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
GOOD i don't. Know let's see Mir yamashta is obviously
the only other woman that has been, announced BUT i don't.
Know Masha islamovich In natalia is something THAT i wouldn't
probably mind, seeing and it probably wouldn't.
Speaker 6 (20:00):
LEAVE tna is running at the same, time oh head to, have.
Speaker 3 (20:06):
So it takes that one out of the. Mix but too. Bad, Well, natalia,
though is going to be. Everywhere possibly she might be IN.
Tna it would make sense at some. Point if she,
is she's going to be wrestling for believe it or,
Not Billy Corgan's National Wrestling, Alliance The Crack Crocket Cup.
Show IF i can talk, today excuse?
Speaker 6 (20:26):
Me the?

most THE nwa has been in the news Since Father

endure watching him ON raw as The, CONSTABLE i can

couple of weeks. Ago swerve In ricochet in a contract

how it. Goes moving, On, tom what are your thoughts
on the?
Speaker 6 (24:20):
SHOW i just that's exactly WHAT i was gonna. Say
tom gave them to. YOU i have nothing else to.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
ADD nxt tonight on THE cw and internationally On netflix
from THE pc In. Orlando last week was a really good,
show unlike this show, today which is setting new, lows
which is something with me hosting. It that show ended
up doing a really good. Number this one it's probably
gonna fall off a little. Bit it was NXT's best
show in a, month seven hundred and ninety Nine Bad
(24:49):
people at point one nine in the eighteen to forty
nine year old. Demo, tonight it does go up against
The state Of Reunion state of The union address By President.
Trump and as we've talked about plenty of times when
it comes TO, nxt even though real life stories and
situations will AFFECT aw and to a certain, Degree SmackDown
(25:10):
And raw when it was ON, USA nxd seems to
be one of the most bulletproof. Shows so we'll see
if their good luck keeps. Up this, WEEK Tna World
Tag Team champions The Hardy boys have announced been announced
as Appearing North american title on the, Line Tony DiAngelo
Against Sean, Spears Klannie jordan Against Jada, Parker WOMEN'S Us
(25:32):
Champion Chelsea green And Piper niven face off Against Soul
ruka And. Zaria and this is all leading to THE
nxt stand and deliver next Pl WrestleMania, Weekend april nineteenth
from T. Mobile, actually we're going to get though the
Special roadblock episode OF nxt coming, up and it has
(25:54):
been announced today By ava on social media that we
are going to get A New York city street fight
Between Javon evans And Ethan. Page and as street fights
go In New York, city. Anymore you can't be caught
with a, gun so we know that won't be used up.
There can you imagine the violence here Between javon And Ethan,
page and Will javon gets some revenge and Stomp Ethan
(26:17):
page's jaw As ethan?
Speaker 6 (26:19):
Did IS i, mean quite, frankly For brian's, SAKE i hope.
NOT i Hope Ethan page keeps beating On Javon evans
so we get to hear about it on every show
That brian gets the host or talk on at. All but, Uh,
(26:39):
Mike one of the REASONS i think why THE nxt
numbers so bulletproof is a large portion of that audience
can't change the channel with their hand down their. Pants so.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Are you saying that the is that because of the
the best women's division as they have claimed h call,
themselves or is that just because of the show in?
General do you think people you, know See obafemi and
get excited or are you are you kind of putting
this all on The julias And corrige aides of the.
Speaker 6 (27:11):

move on.

one hundred of them every? Year this is by far our.
Speaker 6 (31:36):
WORST i don't. Know don't make promises you can't. Keep that's.
True there's been some nuggets in, there as.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
As Robert fuller once said To Jerry, jarrett When Jerry
jarrett looked At Robert fuller's booking and noticed.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
That they are thought you were going to say something.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
ELSE a bunch of Empty this has been a long
day for, YOU a bunch of empty seats. Everywhere you, Know,
ROBERT i don't think you can get much, worse And
robert was Offendeds, oh yes it. Can we're on the
right path. There right after that From Tom, lawler what
are you talking? About is? Uh? Uh with never. Mind
On march, SECOND wwe trademark the term The culling and
(32:16):
Is Joseph courrier noted in his report on our. Website
while there's been no confirmation of what the trademark is,
for there are a couple OF nxt groups that do
not have names. Yet And, tom if you had to
attach the name The culling to a, group would it
be To Dion, Lennox The bookworm and his new, group
or would it be For Sean spears and his collection
(32:38):
of wacky.
Speaker 6 (32:39):
MISFITS i don't, know that's an awful name regarding Male Ky.
Speaker 3 (32:44):
Black is he gonna do some?
Speaker 6 (32:45):
Magic?
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Maybe dom And i'm Saying dom D m this. Time
could you look up that definition for us? Please as
you go ahead and do, That i'll move on To
raw last? NIGHT i got? It what is? It the official?
Speaker 9 (33:08):
Definition the act of removing individuals from a group based
on certain characteristics can also be used for, animals, employees
or other.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
Groups so if we use that in the, sentence it's
possible after today's show That Brian alvarez will do some
culling from the ranks of hosts of this. Show absolutely
after the elimination chamber Of highlight. Package last Night's raw
kicked off with an incredible cmpunk. Promo he stormed down
(33:37):
to the, rank kicked over the prime, display jumped onto
the announced. Table he cut his promo right to the.
Camera he Called rock a bald, fraud bald bald. Fraud
he called himself middle aged and crazy and said he
felt like hell to get into the main event At,
mania while The rock just walked in and big timed.
Everyone punk told him to stop pretending like he loved the.
Business he would never stoop to wearing a fake title,
(33:59):
belt and he'd never sell his. Soul he then tore
Into John. Cena after twenty years now everyone can see
what he knew all, along which is What John cena
was just full of. Bs punk said that he'd see
both of the bald frauds down the, road and then
transitioned to Seth. Rollins punk said That Becky lynch better
come get her man before he put him in a.
(34:19):
Wheelchair rollins music. Hits he comes, Out he's not dressed
Like liberachi's. Stylist punk jumps off the. Desk he starts
running up the. Ramp rollins was waiting for. Him it
was on from, there, brawl pull, apart, brawl break, away pull,
apart constant with that as they went into a commercial.
Break if you pay for the top tier Of, netflix
(34:41):
you would see that they started brawling. Again and then
when we got back from, break it was a segment
with the Judgment. Dave but this whole thing went FOR
i don't know about ten twelve minutes and a hell
of a way to start the, show especially coming off
of that great show On Saturday.
Speaker 6 (34:57):
Night, YEAH i thought this was fa, fantastic what a hot,
start and it was exactly what it should have. Been
these guys hate each other and based on their, actions
you could, tell, boy they wasted no time as soon
as they saw each. Other it was on. Site they're
Like Peter griffin and The. Chicken they just will not
stop going at. It AND i thought it was one
(35:18):
of the better brawls THAT i can, remember you, know
really just great work for both.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Guys i'm gonna say the live, rounds but a couple
of a couple of potatoes in, there.
Speaker 6 (35:29):
A couple Of Travis scott esque.
Speaker 3 (35:31):
Shots just, said both guys seemed to be glad to
be taking in, this so just a they did a great.
Speaker 6 (35:38):
Job and, Yeah punk shot a nice single, leg although
somehow he ended up on bottom in THAT i don't,
understand but, yeah good use of HIS mma skills there
By cmpunk during that, brawl and.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
They ended up being a theme throughout the. Show another
theme throughout the show was references to what happened On Saturday.
Night this was very MUCH Wwe to me right, now
feels very much like when a wrestling promotion is hot
like in eighty six to me growing up With, krock
AND i always like going back to reference that because
that's WHAT wwe is that like right, now and you
(36:12):
have so many hot, people you have so many things
intertwined and so many different feuds and personalities intertwined with each,
other but there is always one thing that is kind
of the overarching thing that anybody can talk about at any,
time and that in this case Is John cena and
the deal With Cody, rhoades and that was mentioned many.
(36:32):
Times many video packages brought up through the. Show they
saved the last big one if people didn't Watch Elimination.
Chamber they saved the one With cody actually getting slapped
and showing the beat down until much later on in the.
Show but they talked about it with some people throughout the,
show which included Aj styles at one. Point but before
(36:53):
we get into, That Judgment day was backstage in the,
Clubhouse liv And raquel were celebrating their title with carl And,
dom But finn was all depressed on the. Couch When
liv asked about, him he started. Shading everybody said that
live lost in the, Chamber carlito And dom were embarrassed
by Braun breaker last, week And dom cut in to, say,
well if we had another, member But finn cut him
(37:14):
off one more time and, said we don't need another member.
Tonight he'd be the one that takes care of Braun.
Breaker we then Got gunther Against, otis non title, match
everything that you would want this thing to. Be brian
just was in rapture talking about it On observer last. Night,
Obviously otis is a guy that you expressed your appreciation
(37:36):
for a little bit earlier on TOM a hell of a.
CHARACTER i would like to see this guy actually do.
More and even in losing the fact that he stood
up The, gunther Got gunther, down stood up to him
in the chop, battle which no one's ever been able
to really do, before and get the advantage. There it
was actually a really good night for. Him if they
(37:57):
decided to move him into A Inner continent OR us
title picture at some point down the.
Speaker 12 (38:02):
Line five years they, said five years ago he was
mister money in the bank was.
Speaker 6 (38:14):
And what has happened since? Then he has been buried
repeatedly over and over and he is still he's infinitely.
Over like you, mentioned what a great character This this otis,
guy like when they decide, like holy, crap like we've
had this guy the whole, time now's the time to
(38:36):
go with. Him when they finally decide to do, it
the crowd is gonna be there for, it AND i can't.
Wait i'll have to for a long.
Speaker 13 (38:43):
Time probably he's gonna be like the, man be Like Mark,
henry you, know like when he's at the twilight of his,
career when he's heading, out that's where he's gonna be
doing his best work because they're gonna give him a.
Speaker 6 (38:55):
Ball then it's.
Speaker 3 (38:56):
Nice to See Clay weeda still up. Right he was
showing in the. Crowd they were kind of random being
In buffalo that they broke out the cave.
Speaker 6 (39:02):
Man good to see him still standing. Upright as you, mentioned,
yes the.
Speaker 3 (39:06):
Old carpenter Aj styles was interviewed About John cena's term
When Carrying cross interrupted, him and again this is one
of those times where they talked to somebody else who
had nothing to do with the situation On saturday night
about their thoughts on seeing his turn But Carrying cross interrupting.
Him he's now got an empty, group you, know depending
on if the miz is still hanging out With Carrying
(39:26):
cross or. Not it seems Like Carrying cross would actually
be a good guy for The Judgment day to take,
on you, know if they wanted to add somebody to the,
group because in that way you could also add a
little drama there if you wanted to Between scarlet And,
live because at some Point live is going to be
back on the Baby pace side of. THINGS i would, Think.
Speaker 6 (39:47):
Yeah i'm with you on that. ONE i don't know
Where Carrying cross fits in. Here he's always seemingly been
tied to groups for a large portion of his time,
here and now The Final testament's. Gone you want to
talk about guys THAT I i'd like to, see not
The Final. Testament i'm. Sorry whatever that group, was is.
Speaker 3 (40:04):
That just what it, was wasn't?
Speaker 11 (40:05):
It?
Speaker 6 (40:05):
Yeah oh, yeah, Yeah Final. Testament i'd love to see
aop in that Blood sport ring as. Well you, know that'd.
Speaker 3 (40:12):
Be there two guys. Again you, KNOW i don't know
what their interests, are if there's would be interest in
them From. Japan but, again those guys going over there
and like wrecking shop against The Sayato brothers or something like,
that you put them, in you, know you know they
would actually be that would actually be. Fantastic, AGAIN i
don't know it would be worth their while or. Not
in Her Continental women's Title Lyra valkyri Against Ivy nile
(40:34):
just didn't get a lot of heat for this. Match
the story Was nile working Over lyra's left. Leg she
had a long ankle lock On lyra and noted as
a tribute to her Coach Chad. Gable that was finally
broken When lyra hit the ropes and finished. Game When
nile missed a boot in the. Corner lyra hit a,
backbreaker followed it up with the Night wing for the.
Pin it was, fine you, know decent. Match after that,
(40:56):
Seth rollins was shown being escorted through the bowels of the.
Building When Jackie redman caught up to him to interview,
him he SPOTS Cm, punk who's also being escorted by.
Security they begin brawling again after a break at In
pierce is Scolding rolins for Attacking punk. Again long story
short of matches made Between rollins And punk for next
(41:16):
Week's raw inside a steel cage In Madison Square. Garden
do you think that's where that ends Before, WrestleMania, WELL.
Speaker 6 (41:26):
I think there's. NO i don't KNOW i would got
to think That Roman reigns gets back involved in this
in some, manner AND.
Speaker 3 (41:37):
I you, know you can make a case For punk
to be involved in The Sena Cody rhodes, match and
actually you could put the belt On punk coming In.
Mania the obvious one, though is a Seth Roman REIGNS Cm.
Punk that's WHAT i kind of figured was going to.
Happen BUT i guess we can see that to me
is the more likely. Thing but it'll be interesting to,
(41:59):
see you, know if they, go if they have a
finish in that, match or if it Isn't Madison Square,
garden Does Roman reigns come back and you, know again
who knows what's going to happen, There but we'll have
to wait and see next. Week Olivik kaiser promo there's
another one where if you Have netflix and can watch
during the, break it is his him sauntering out. There
(42:21):
As pat McAfee And Michael cole, Described kaiser coming to
the ring was, ridiculous he said when it was back
on for, everybody kind of, promo saying that he took
back what he deserved and that was the spotlight That
penta had been. Receiving he, says What John sena did
To Cody rhodes another reference from somebody, Else But sena
did The rhodes Last saturday will be nothing compared to
(42:42):
what he'll do To. Penta penta then came down to the.
Ring the two began, fighting And penta cleared the ring from,
him hit a running flip dive from over the, ring
over the top rope to the floor on top Of,
kaiser and that was. That bianca Bel air was interviewed
By Kathy. Kelly bianca says she's reserving comment on the
jade nail. Situation she feels guilty because even though she's
(43:03):
sad about what, happened she's equally proud of herself for
winning the. Chamber there's no way she's not a. Heel
there's no way she doesn't get dragged into the jade.
Thing no.
Speaker 6 (43:11):
Way it's just so convoluted to, me like why was
she she was in a match when the attack was
played on the screen or the aftermath of the. Attack
why did she run off during the, Match like did
she help perpetrate the? Attack it just thought she was
gonna get away with, it and then it was shocked
that they flashed on the, screen so she ran back.
(43:33):
There you, know there's obviously an unanswered.
Speaker 3 (43:35):
Questions did anyone ask the question what would The rock
And John cena have done IF cm punk would have
won the? Match BECAUSE i think?
Speaker 6 (43:47):
Yeah or what If cody had accepted the?
Speaker 3 (43:49):
Offer, yeah that's another. One then they just all.
Speaker 6 (43:53):
Celebrate, yeah.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
Is just?
Speaker 3 (43:56):
There like yeah? Exactly maybe everybody would have got a
weight belt that Said cody and they all could have
pose with. IT i don't. Know Viking raiders and The
creed brothers they got. Together, hey we don't have much, Time,
tom But Brutus creed four Fifty Julie's crease shooting Star.
PRESS i love that they can do. IT i love
that they did, it but in a match that they're
not gonna win on just a random. Raw it was
(44:17):
a fun, match but should they have broken those moves, out.
Speaker 6 (44:21):
They probably could have saved.
Speaker 3 (44:22):
It Chad, gable have you ever walked past the meat
market In? Tijuana, tom what the hell was? This there's
a box that apparently Doctor Wagner junior had or something like.
THAT i don't. Know long story, short five hundred dollars
was paid to this. Man Chad gable goes open the
(44:42):
box and we don't see what it. Is they went
to break like we have to do right, Now we'll
be back with the rest of the Show Wrestumes.
Speaker 2 (44:51):

Tom lawler here to put a bow on this, thing
including a bow on the. Raw review video package From
Dragon Lea cruz Del toro Walking wild In Ray. Mystereo
this is about as cool as they've ever. Looked doing
the promo package that they had a lot of people
thinking that they're going to turn On Ray, mystereo which
(45:40):
would lead To phoenix coming in and him partnering. UP
i don't, know, Man andrade's still out. THERE i, mean
there's a lot of things you could. Do would you
turn all these guys On? Ray that to me seems,
like you, know really.
Speaker 6 (45:53):
Cliche it, Does BUT i, mean what else are they
going to do with this LW Whoa sure it's given
some guys like well it has and they do a
lot more than l W o. Does come, On, so
LIKE i think it's run its course to be. Fair but.
Speaker 3 (46:16):
Women's title, Match Ria, Ripley Eos, guy what's your? THING i,
mean obviously it was a hell of a, match surprise
finish BECAUSE i DIDN'T i, honestly if you would have
said you have to put money on, something Either sina's
gonna turn Or Ria ripley's gonna lose that, BELT i
would have put it on scenea turning BEFORE i put
it On. Rhea but they've announced today that is going
to Be Eos guy And bianca and Wrestle. Mania that
(46:38):
doesn't mean things can't. Change we've heard a lot about
disruptions taking. Place what do you?
Speaker 6 (46:43):
Think, YEAH i think they did such a great job
getting that that final shot of the three of them
at the elimination, chamber that that is going to be the.
MATCH i don't know how they're gonna get. THERE i.
Am i'm surprised THAT eo, won But i'm not so prize, that,
uh you, know it looks like it could end up
be in a three.
Speaker 3 (47:03):
Way and even though they don't like doing things like
this and it's not you, know suggested historically that you
do things like this when you're so, hot you can
actually change up a match even at that, level If
jade is the one who comes in and Takes bianca
out and we have a match between them and we
end up WITH eo And rickley again in a rematch At. WrestleMania,
