to Wrestling Discussions, Episode twenty six. I'm your host, Ashley Janey,
and I just want to thank God for blessing me
to do another episode, and I want to give a
(00:50):
special shout outs to all of the listeners that's tuning
in to this episode because it's going to be about
my thoughts about the outcome of the Rumbo and my
predictions for Elimination Chamber. That's today, so let's get into it.
So I must say that this year is Rumble was
incredible and I was very pleased with the results of
(01:12):
the matches. You know, it was great to see the
return of Alexa Bliss and Nikki Bella, and it was
good to see Chrish Stratta to get back in the ring.
And I did, in fact predict that Charlotte Flair will
return to the Rumble and I was definitely rooting for
her because she had been out been out of action
for some time and to see her redeem herself at
(01:35):
the Rumble was cool to see, you know, making her
a two time Rumble winner, which was well deserved because
returning from an injury, I'm sure it's never easy, but
she in fact did it. And I'm glad she chose
to face Tiffany Stratton that Mania for the title because
Tiffany is definitely going to give Charlotte a run for
(01:55):
her money and it's going to be a great match
as well. And even Tiffany herself said she always wanted
to challenge Charlotte and now it's about and that it
was about to happen that Mania, and I do think
that Tiffany.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
May drop her titles to Charlotte, but Charlotte won't have
it easy because Tiffany.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Is the top contender and we can't sleep on her
potential and her abilities in the ring, because she definitely
got it and she did a phenomenal drive against Nya
Jacks on SmackDown because she kept because she kept on fighting,
and she kept on kicking out the moves that we
didn't think she would kick out of and she didn't
(02:35):
give up. And even though no one won that match,
it was still worth watching because it just goes to
show you that Tiffany is on Charlotte's level, and even
Charlotte knows it too, because during the match, they showed
the clip of Charlotte watching the match and you could
tell she was impressed with her and that Tiffany is
competition for her. So I'm definitely looking forward to that
(02:58):
match that Mania, and I'm also looking forward to her
tag match for Tricks Stratus to to go against Naya
and Candas, and I'm gonna discuss that match more or
later on.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
In this episode.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
And the match between the Mota City Machine Guns and
d I Wild what's a decent match to the Street
Profits interfere. But the Street Profits are just letting it
be known that they want to be the tag team
champions again, and I.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Hope they do it this year.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
But I hope they do like a fatal four away
ladder match at Mania for the tag.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
Titles, which will be cool, and hopefully the.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Street Profits are victorious because they deserve to be the
champions again because they make such a great team and
they definitely need to stay healed because I like how
thee Russell as a team when they are heels. And
also the match between Kevin and Cody was brutal and
action pack and I know and I knew those two
(03:58):
would tear down the house and that Alabama slam that
Cody gave Kevin through the ladder was epic and that
slam that Kevin gave Cody off the ladder was epic.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
Two. But I don't think their rivalry is completely over with.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
I think they still have some ull finished business to settle,
so we should see. I'm just glad that Cody retained
the title, which I knew he would, and it was
also a great match, by the way, and I'm gonna
say that Men's Royal Rumble was off the chain. And
I am so glad that Jay Uso won by eliminated
(04:33):
Sena to cash his ticket to Mania, which was well
deserved hands down, and he even earned seen as respect
as well, which was great to see. And I felt
so bad that I didn't predict that, you know, Jay
would win a Rumble when I know that Jay is
a contender, that he has a lot of potential, and
who he is a main inventor as well, and you know,
(04:56):
he's been in the business for a while alongside his
brother Jimmy Usso, and they definitely have came came a
long way by starting off as a tag team, winning
multiple championships, joining the Bloodline and finding their own paths
of solo superstars. And once Shape became the IC champion,
(05:17):
I already knew that he was gonna eventually go after
the world title because he has been really trying hard
to capture the world title ever since twenty twenty when
he went against Roman Rains at Helen the Cell and
that's been five years in the making. So now he
has another opportunity to gain the title, and now it's
his time, and I'm glad he chose Gonther because it's
(05:41):
about time for someone to snatch that title away from
him because he has been championed every since SummerSlam of
last year and he thinks he's unstoppable and he doesn't
believe that Jake can beat him. But I look at
it this way, if Sammy Zin could be Gonther, then
what you think Jay is gonna do? And Jay definitely
(06:02):
gave Gone through a run for his money at Saturday
nice main event that took place over a month ago,
and I actually enjoyed that match, and even though gone
through retain the title, you know, you could tell he
was still surprised because he wasn't expecting for him to
give him that type of fight.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
But now he knows what Jay is.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Capable of doing, and he knows that he is a
top contender. So I'm definitely looking forward to that match
that they're gonna have that Mania because I already know
that it's gonna be one hell of a match in
the fight, because number one, you have the title on
the line, and you have one superstar that's fighting for
his dreams, his legacy, but most of all, his respect,
(06:46):
and you have another superstar on the other hand that's
trying to prove his opponent it's not worthy of being
a champion. So it's definitely gonna be in the tense match.
But I got faith and hope that Jay would do
a big Mania yeat. Now, I want to talk about
my predictions for Elimination Chamber tonight that's gonna be held
(07:08):
in Toronto. So the first match I want to discuss
is the women's chamber match that's gonna feature Alexa Bliss,
Bianca Bella, Air Bailey, Naomi Rock, Sand.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
Perez and Live Morgan.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Now, I ain't gonna lie that's a great That is
a great lineup with a lot of my favorite female superstars,
and I hate that I gotta that, I gotta pick one,
But in this case, I'm gonna pick three possibilities, and
I think it's gonna either be Alexa Bliss, roxand.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Perez, or maybe Live Morgan.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
And the reason why I say Alexa may get it
is because she made a comeback and I'm sure she's
hungry for a championship.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Opportunity, and I believe her and Real would.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Have a phenomenal Matchatmania, because of course they're gonna give
each other a fight, and I believe the storyline is
gonna be cool with Alexa playing nine games with Real
like she did in the past of Randy Jordan, so
I could see something happening like that, and that was
one of the reasons why I do see Alexa winning
is because of that.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
And the reason why I say Roxanne is.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Number two is because she's one hell of a competitor
and she did a great job lasting for a very
long time in a rumble where she made history, and
I do like her style and I believe her and
Ria would definitely tear tear the house down. And Roxanne
also has been doing her thing go NXT, which is
(08:37):
a huge plus.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
That made her even more ready for the main roster.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
And the reason why I say Live may possibly do
it is because she definitely wants to redeem herself to
gain another opportunity to face Ria for the title since
Ria was the one to take the title from her,
and of course she wants to rematch for the title.
And I believe they will tear it down, you know,
at the main event of Mania, of course on the
(09:04):
women's side. But I just hope that the that they
that it wouldn't be any interference from the judgment day.
That's the only thing I just hope that don't happen.
So those are my three predictions for the women's chamber.
Now I want to talk about the men's chamber that
features John Sena seeing him Punk, Damian Priest, Seth Rollins,
(09:27):
Drew McIntire and Logan Paul.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
So my three possibilities would have.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
To be John Sena see Him Punk of Seth Rollins
to face Cody Rose at Mania. And the reason why
I say Sena is because he is very adamant about
winning the Chamber because as we all know, this is
his last Mania, and of course he wants to win
another title to outlast Ric Flair by becoming a seventeen
(09:53):
time champion, and according to that post conference interview he
did after the Royal Rumble, he he's definitely serious about it,
and then truth be told, I would love to see
that and seeing it's definitely worthy of becoming a seventeen
time champion because he has a lot, he has a
lot of talent in charisma to do so that he's
(10:15):
been very loyal to the business for over twenty years,
so it will be well deserved.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
For him to do it.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
And I believe he will get Cody and run for
his money and excuse me and the second person to
see him punk. And the reason why I say punk
is because he wants to redeem himself and go to Mania,
go back to Mania, since he hasn't done so in years,
and he wants to prove that he's still worth her
being champion and that he can really do it, and
(10:44):
he hasn't appeared at a wrestle Mania since twenty thirteen,
so that's why I could see him possibly winning. And lastly,
it may be Seth Rollins because according to this past
Monday on Raw, Seth doesn't want Cody Tix except that
offer the Rockcast in store for him, which I'm gonna
talk more about in the field, And that promo between
(11:07):
him and Cody got deep and he told Cody, don't
make me regret helping you get that title, and Cody
just looked at him. And then also, Seth wants to
be championed again, and him and Cody have had some
great matches before in the past, and I believe they
will do their thing again this year.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
If that happens.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
So that's why I see Seth possibly winning the Chamber.
And now the match between Tchrish Strattis and Tiffany Stratton
versus Naya Jackson Candice Lay, It's gonna be a great match,
and I could see Tiffany and Trish winning this match,
and it's because I believe they're gonna work well together
(11:48):
and this moment is a dream come true for Tiffany,
and I think this was a smart move to allow
her to work with Trist's Trish excuse me, so she
commend to Tiffany to prepare her for her future as
a you know, as a WWE superstar and then just
basically give her advice. And I'm definitely looking forward to
(12:10):
this to that match as well. And the match between
Kevin Owens and Sammy Zaine is gonna be brutal in
the tense, and it's because you have two former friends
that don't.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Like each other.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
And plus Ko tried to end his career, so of
course Sammy is going to get paid back for that.
And he also appeared at Sammy's house while his family
was there, which made it even more personal. And I
think Sammy is gonna win this match, and it's because
he ain't going down without a fight and he wants
to send a message loud and.
Speaker 2 (12:42):
Clear to Ko. So that's why I feel like Sammy
is going to do his thing to just win the match.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
Now, this offer that The Rock is offering Cody Rows
may be a heel turn for Cody if he accepts,
or it may keep him a babyface if he rejects it.
But the idea of him selling his soul to be
set for life, it's a very risky move, and it's
because Rock may be lying to him to try, you know,
to try to you know, break his spirit and trick
(13:12):
trick Cody into challenging him for the title. But the
promo that Cody did on Raw recently showed us that
he may be interested. But again Sef tried to warn him,
and in my opinion, I think he's gonna say no,
and it's because Cody is a leader and he has
to forgot what Rock, what The Rock did to him
(13:33):
last year leading up into that mania of last year,
so that would make him not want to do it,
and then he may not have his own freedom like
he do, and he doesn't want to disappoint his family
and fans, so that's why, you know, honestly, I see
him rejecting the offer. But once he rejects it, I
think that's when The Rock is going to get mad
(13:54):
mad at him of course, and he probably may try
to attack Cody, but who knows, And then of course
Cody's gonna fight back and let it be known that
he's not selling out. So only thing we can do
is shas well and see what happens. So those are
pretty much my predictions for the Elimination Chamber and my
thoughts about the Rumble.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
So that's gonna do it. For this episode of Wrestling Discussions.
