(02:18):
minutes removed FROM Wwez Saturday nights main event One Peacock
it with. Streaming i'm not gonna lie to you, guys because,
sincerely you know some people they'll fake it and they'll
be like, no, no, no no no. No i'm being
totally honest with you, guys and my wife will tell

(02:39):
YOU i was bawling like a little. BABY i was
choking just inside. Outside the emotions just came out of.
Me John, cena thank, You thank you for all the
years of. Entertainment thank you for all the years of

(03:01):
giving us some really great wrestling, moments but also at
the same time giving us some really good life. Lessons you,
know it's really crazy to, believe but you, know as
long As i've been doing this, show it didn't really
dawn on me until a lot of the video packages
that we were seeing and. Everything but to just really

(03:22):
wrap your brain around the fact that we've been watching
this guy for almost twenty five, years it's amazing how
time just flies. By it really really, is because it
almost feels like it was yesterday THAT i first Saw
John cena come into THE wwe talking what he has to,

(03:45):
offer The Kurt, angle as far as he brings to the,
table the whole ruthless. Aggression and it's amazing how just.
Bam you, know there's a Favorite Led zeppelin song THAT
i really really. Love it's called Ten Years. Gone but,
again we're talking about somebody here that has been around
that we've watched for almost twenty five. Years you, know

(04:05):
just really stop to think about, that you essentially had
kids that were either born around When John cena, started
or you had kids that were somewhere between five to,
ten and then like some of those people essentially grew
up and they had kids of their. Own so we're
talking about a situation Where John sena has essentially kind

(04:29):
of raised or gone through two the three generations of.
Families when it's all said and, done just it's mind
boggling when you stop and think about. It i'm representing
for one night, only longtime listeners that have been with
me for, years where you will see me and actually

(04:49):
it was the first time ever THAT i am In
John cena. Gear NORMALLY i wear wrestling memorabilia on the
shows from time to. TIME i actually purchased all of
this a year, ago and my plan was to never
bust it, out BUT i, said now you know, what,

(05:13):
MATCH i gotta represent so for one night, only one stream,
only you guys got me in the Full John cena.

(06:22):
event which is DOWNTOWN. Dc there it looks like just
off Of Gallery, Place chinatown pretty much so right just
right around the corner from The Capitol One. ARENA wwe

(06:45):
got this set. Up they had it pretty. MUCH i
think it was at play maybe Since. Friday Definitely saturday

it might have been opened up On, friday but it's
gonna be Open sunday from ten am to three pm
and you can get yourself all kinds Of John cena.

(07:09):
Memorabilia definitely you're gonna be able to get some stuff
that is not available. ONLINE i just happened to browse
online before the start of the, event and let me
tell you, Something, man they had some pretty good stuff on.
THERE i was actually able to find A Last time
Is Now. TUMBLR i also was able to find a
really Cool Saturday Nights Main Event WASHINGTON dc shirt that

(07:35):
Had sena on. It The Saturday Night's Main. EVENT i
forget what's on the, back but they put something on the.
Back maybe they put A saturday The Night's Main event
on the back of. It but the design just it
looks really really. Good it's on a black shirt and
they've Got sena in this kind of god, tent kind

(07:55):
of monochrome thing that's going. On it looks really really.
Badass check it. Out. Now if you were to ask,
me would you get those items in time For? Christmas
it doesn't look like. It so be prepared BECAUSE i,
know for, example The tumblr that they got. Available that
is a special event, item so you already know what
the deal is when it comes to that and, everything

(08:17):
and shout out To kevin and the. Chat yes we
are gonna we gotta talk about. THAT i have never
seen a man so vilified before in my entire life
in the. Game TRIPLE, H PAUL Lovec god damn did
D C Yo. Yo we don't gives a fuck when

(08:37):
it comes out here IN, dc we just don't gives a.
Fuck we let our voices be, known and, yeah we
did not give a fuck About TRIPLE H PAUL. Lvec,
tonight for those of you that didn't Watch saturday night's main,
Event John cena did the one thing that we never
thought we would See sena ever, do at least this

(09:00):
carnation Of, sina which is never give. Up And John
cena lost To gunther in the middle of the, ring
he tapped. Out but like just the way in Which
John cena tapped, OUT i can tell you because when
you talk TO US dc, fans the vast majority OF

(09:22):
US dc, fans we know our wrestling. History we pretty
much know like the behind the scenes. Stuff you. Know
we're smart enough fans very seldom here in THE dc
metropolitan area will you come across a wrestling fan that'll be, like,
oh did that really? Happen or all wile? Like and

(09:42):
those that do kind of talk like, that they're relatively,
young like they like they don't listen to the. Podcast
they don't know anything about wrestling. Podcast they haven't, bothered
like they don't have that one friend that's smartening them.
Up like the majority OF us fans out here IN,
dc where we know our, stuff, right we could talk wrestling,

(10:04):
history we could talk about WHEN wcw was doing their
thing out, here and depending on how far back you,
go we even got some old schoolers that will talk
about the old old old school, days Corporate championship wrestling
and everything like. That so in this particular, case, though you,

(10:25):
know the biggest problem THAT i, had AND i think
a lot of people are gonna have with How John
cena got sent off into the sunset is the fact
that he just nonchalantly tapped. OUT i, mean my, God
John cena must have did not won aa not two,
AA's not even three. AA's this dude had to do

(10:46):
like at least four to five attitude, adjustments and just
when you, think, okay, Yeah sena's at least after the THIRD,
aa you're, Going sena's got this in the bag, Now,
no not. Happen guther somehow kicked. Out and each time
he's kicking Out for, me the adrenaline is Just i'm

(11:07):
yelling at THE. Tv i'm going. Out but after the THIRD,
AA i said that my, WIFE i, say, yeah this one's.
Over guther's gonna get, this like he's gonna get, this
and sure, enough Goother AND i love the psychology that
was played out. There. Man you Had gunther slapping on

(11:27):
that Choke hode from, behind And sina is just struggling
and he's like trying to come to his. Feet he's trying,
to you, know get the will of the people in
his favor and, everything and he musters up enough energy
and just, boom Sends guther into the corner back first
he gets, Freed, okay, Great gunther slaps it right back

(11:50):
on him. Again rints repeat and they're, like, oh you,
know like come on seeing, it come on seeing. It come.
On and then you had like a third. Attempt We're
seena manages to uh fight Off. Guther he's trying to
look for the attitude. Adjustment guther reverses it slaps that

(12:11):
bad boy right on, him and you're just, like, yeah no,
way no, how this is definitely. Over like there's just
no Way sena is gonna be able to get out of.
This AND i started thinking to myself, self Maybe John
cena is gonna just pass, out and there you. Go
guther gets to, win but he never Made John cena give.

(12:35):
Up John cena's eyes open clear as day and we just. See.
LOOK i LOVE i Love. SENA i Love. Sena he's
actually one of My twitter, followers believe it or. Not,
NO i have not slid into his. Dms, OKAY i
know he is a fan of certain. Podcasts you, KNOW

(12:59):
i don't know if he's checked out my show over the. Years.
UH i bet. YOU i could find, out, though IF
i really wanted, TO i know a couple of PEOPLE
i could find. Out BUT i gotta give it To
scena straight between the, Eyes Like, sina you gotta watch
that match, back, man you gotta watch those final seconds
back because for you to just nonchalantly raise your hand

(13:22):
and just tap LIKE i don't. Know, ah, YEAH i
THINK i Think i'm done with that. SANDWICH i Think
i'm gonna go upstairs and lay down. Now OH i
Think i'm getting a little bit of. Heartburn oh, WELL
i think it was a. CHILI i mean, literally this
is How John cena's just tapping, out and it's, like
what the fuck is? That it was lame AS i

(13:45):
don't know what leff of a very bitter taste in my.
Mouth you, Know i've seen my fair share of submission
holds and. Tapouts that was the, weakest weakest fucking of
tapouts of all. Time the other thing that was really

(14:05):
annoying about this Match John cena And gunther yelling audibles
at each, other and it was just annoying the hell
out of. Me whoever was in the back technical director,
directors they really should have been doing a better job
telling their. Cameraman, look if you're in a position where

(14:28):
you're able to see these guys', mouths, like hurry up and.
Switch oh speaking of, switching my camera just zoomed in.
There sorry about. That you got a situation where, like
if you because a, cameraman if you're immediately going to
an angle where you can see their mouths and you're
starting to see them mumble, something hurry, up and just

(14:52):
switch to another angle, move so we don't like get
an idea, that, oh these two are actually having a
conversation of what spots they're gonna be doing. Next too many,
times clear as day we were seeing Mainly. Sena we've
seen him do a lot of this crap over the,
years BUT i mean it was really on full display.
Tonight that was just irking me the hell. OUT i,

(15:18):
mean otherwise it was a good, match but a lame
as finished when it was all said and. Done And
i'm gonna tell you my first real reactions WHEN i
Saw sina tap out the way that he, did first
THING i othered was, bullshit AND i followed it up
with we're really gonna have him go out like? That like?

(15:42):
That ALL i could think about was the whole, hustle, loyalty,
respect but just the whole never give. UP i actually
watched the countdown To Saturday night's main, event, which by the,
way everybody involved on the production side of wwee fantastic
with the countdown Special Big e doing a phenomenal. Job

(16:07):
i'm trying to think who else was part of the,
whole part of the whole. SET i know at one
Point Sammy zay came on By Joe tessitur was doing
it as. Well Triple Ah paul. Leveg this was obviously
before the main. Event Triple a's got a lot of
love from us here IN, dc right down to the,
point you, know we were chanting to, him, uh spit the,

(16:31):
water spit the, water like he never spit the, water,
Right But i'm sure that kind of made him feel
good regardless, that you, know, Hey Paul, Eve Triple ah
is in the. House, okay, great you, know like, hey,
uh but it Was it was a great countdown show
that they did where they showed all these Great John
Cena liutle tribute packages and if you went out of

(16:53):
your way to watch that before the main, show, man
you really got so damn. Emotional and you saw the
montage they did of fans that went up to various
microphones set up at different, arenas like out on the
streets or, whatever and fans were basically if they wanted,

(17:15):
to they could just walk up to the mic and
give their thoughts About John cena and his. Career and you,
know if you want to just say, sena thank you
for the, memories then you could do. That it was
a great little. Montage they did it for like about
maybe four, minutes showing various. Fans there was one woman
that talked about how she came from Like italy Or

(17:35):
rome to try to See John cena's last match and all.
That you're, like, wow so you had people coming from
all over the world to come See John cena and
everything like that's. Badass and then where your emotions really get.
Tugged tell Me i'm. Lying, Okay i'm, Lying i'm. Dying

(17:57):
but you had this great segment that they follow up
after that where they talked about how like over six
hundred and something wishes make a wishes That John cena
has done in his entire career more than any athlete
and the. Entertainer he holds the number one record and,

(18:19):
everything and they tell you this heartbreaking story about this
one young man that sadly he passed away a couple
of years ago at the age of twenty one twenty two,
ish but he was a huge wrestling, fan a Huge

(18:40):
John cena, fan and it was pretty much his wish
to See John. Cena, now when the pandemic went, down
THE covid pandemic went, Down John cena sadly wasn't able
to meet this young man face to, face but he
did a you, know a remote. Thing you know this

(19:03):
that this kid was able to see and, Everything and
LIKE i, said you, know, sadly you know he he
didn't make it. Right but you're just the. Totality i'm
bringing all this up because the totality is just. Everything
and then when you get lost in your own feelings
as a. FAN i know for me, personally and it
takes a real bigger person to admit, this BUT i

(19:25):
used to be The John cena fan when And i'm
sure everybody else is gonna be Like, lee that was
me as. WELL i started off, going wait a, minute
who is this guy with these? Trunks and, okay he's
beating the hell out Of Kurt. Angle, okay he's got. Interesting.
LOOK i don't really, know not, sure kind of generic,

(19:45):
eh maybe a flavor of a month for a couple of.
MONTHS i don't really see anything. Else but then we
get the Wrapping John cena and it was, Like, yo
this dude is fucking. Money this is, okay all. Right
bet none of us could have told you way back
then that this guy was gonna be the face for

(20:09):
so many years that he was gonna be a multi
time world. Heavyweight anybody that would have been, like oh,
NO i saw the MINUTE i first laid eyes on,
Him like, bs they're. Lying, Okay, well we went through
that period where we were that great roller coaster of
a fun ride With, Sina but then we got to
that period where it became The Supersena. Show how Fam

(20:34):
let me ask you, something how convenient is it that
back in the day when it was The Supersena show
and we used to be. LIVID i remember WHEN i
started this show way back in twenty, eleven and at
that time it was still The Supersena, show and some

(20:55):
of my colleagues that were involved in the wrestling podcasting
world no longer with us. NOW i can remember them
Doing google. Hangouts before it was YouTube and and zoom you,
know and Stream yard and all these other it was
Just google. Hangouts AND i can remember the colleagues from

(21:18):
back then that would do an entire ninety, minute two,
hour three hour show just ripping the fuck out Of
John cena because he won yet. Again they used to
title their, episodes you, Know, supersena you, know screws your
favorite wrestler. Again and, like, right it Was TRIPLE h

(21:40):
and the. Shovel but then we got to a point
where it was The Supersena. Show, okay it was some
of the most hilarious. Stuff even myself back then in
the podcasting, WORLD i felt a certain way About John.
CENA i was, like, ah, man like this, dude Ah,
god does he always have to? Win how about putting

(22:02):
some other, people you, know putting him in a nice,
position building them, up Elevating, no d D d D.
Da nobody was trying to hear all, that, THOUGH i you,
know IF i wasn't doing like my friends were, doing
my colleagues were, doing, no you're you, know you're not sensationalizing.
Enough you're not gonna move on somebody else. WHERE i

(22:24):
started turning the corner though On, sena started appreciating, him
looking at him in a different. Light AND i think
most PEOPLE i know for a, fact most people were
in this same mindset as. Well was When sena had
The United States championship and he started doing those open,
challenges then it was, okay, okay maybe we kinda maybe

(22:47):
we kind of got it wrong here With sena, well
or and or maybe the guy finally seen the. Light you,
know it's, like, okay this this is all? Right, Cool
so so many mixed EMOTIONS i personally have WHEN i
just think about the very first TIME i Saw John,
cena the different incarnations Of sena through the years to

(23:13):
where we are, Now and my, GOD i never THOUGHT
i would amplify What i'm about to say more and,
more BUT i just, go, Man vince, McMahon if it
wasn't for the, scandal he would have had a better
retirement tour For John. Cena he would have had a

(23:34):
better proper sendoff For John cena as far as the match,
outcome AND i really want to make sure that this is, stressed.
Goonther great, Job, sena great. Job they put on a classic,
Match AND i mean not for, Nothing but if you
really kind of take a step back and you think about,

(23:54):
this not for. Nothing this was probably, like if not
the second longest, match definitely the longest match That sina
had since he announced his retirement. Tour these boys went
at it pretty damn, long, right and they utilize every

(24:17):
single minute of, it playing up to the, crowd working
the crowd really. Good oh my, god nothing warmed my
heart more than hearing THE dc, crowd you, know say
fuck You gunther and and call him an. ASSHOLE i loved.
IT i ate it. Up it was good. Stuff it's
caddy heat that you want to give this guy, Right

(24:37):
that means he's doing his, Job he's doing it. WELL
i loved it on every single stand from every single.
Standpoint the match played out exactly HOW i thought it
was going to go. Down but To kev's point in the,
chat the tap, out the TapouT was was. Weak it
was weak. SAUCE i almost want to change the, thumbnail

(25:02):
AND i THINK i. WILL i THINK i would have
changed the thumbnail of the show to just that lame
ass TapouT and the blank look That John cena had going.
On there so many mixed EMOTIONS i had during that,
also you, know not for NOTHING i couldn't. Help but
for some weird, REASON i was thinking about The. Halkster
for some weird, REASON i was thinking About Hawk hogan

(25:23):
AND i just, randomly AS i was watching this, MATCH i, said,
wow to, think the last time that The halkster was
in a w W e, ring he got booed out
of the damn, arena and that pretty much like that's
what fans are left. With that's what he ultimately was left,
with you, Know and there was also a part of

(25:45):
me that was, going, man there was a part of
me that kind of Wished hogan was still alive because
it would have been great to hear his thoughts On
John cena and everything that he, accomplished and hearing where
The haulkster essentially Ranks John sena as far as Wrestling Mount.

(26:09):
Rushmore you know, WHAT i really wasn't a fan of
first Time i'm saying, this don't like saying. THIS i
wasn't a fan Of jesse The Body. Ventura so, yeah
if you did not watch The Countdown, show you would
have Missed jesse The Body. Ventura and you know, What

(26:29):
i'm actually Normally i'm Pro. JESSE i found myself, going,
yeah it's good that we Had jesse on The Countdown.
Show let me explain to you the reason. Why in a,
nutshell not, once but, Twice jesse put Down John. Cena,
right you're supposed to be giving this guy his, flowers
and not once but, Twice ventura goes to the well and, saying,

(26:54):
yeah but you know what my problem is With John.

Speaker 3 (26:59):
Cena he might have been a seventeen Time world heavyweight,
champion but that means he lost to championship seventeen times as,
well so he's a seventeen time.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Loser and it's like, dude, like, like, dude, really you're
supposed to be selling the living out Of and it
was just so cringe Watching Joe tessitour And biggie with
the nervous. Laugh everybody knows the nervous. Laugh you're at that,

(27:36):
party you, know function or, whatever and somebody says something
that kind of makes you feel a little. Uncomfortable you
don't want to be, like you, know, okay, grandpa that's,
alright go go and enjoy then apple, pie you, know
go have the sandwich and one glass of. Milk let
let us just be over here talking. Right you don't

(27:58):
want to be, disrespectful, right especially to the. Elderly BUT
i wish one of them would have been, like, okay,
yeah to your, Point, jesse because this is how you
could have shut him up the first rodeo and basically
forced him to try actually giving the guy his flowers

(28:18):
selling main you, know the main event Between sena And.
Gunther you could have said something along the lines of, okay,
yeah he might have won the championship seventeen Times jesse
and lost it seventeen. Times but let's stop and really
add full context to. This John cena has been involved

(28:40):
IN wwe for almost twenty five, years and that essentially
means roughly this guy had a world heavyweight title every
one and a half years. Max two. Years like that's
pretty damn good considering some people never become a heavyweight.

(29:00):
Champion some people they win all other, championships but The
World heavyweight, championship that would to shut his ass down
like real. Quick so TO, wwe if you're gonna keep
bringing Back jesse to Body, ventura like y'all know what
you can. Expect you, know the guy essentially is gonna
go rogue and he pretty much is just gonna like
shoot from the, hip stop Having Joe, Teslator biggie or

(29:24):
whoever with the nervous ass, labs and you, know just
kind of and then not even acknowledging what he. Says
now the second go, ROUND i did like the fact
That biggie tried to push back a little bit and
in a, nice, professional very friendly, way But jesse still

(29:44):
was going to the well on that and it's kind of,
like come, on, Dude, like, seriously my challenge To Joe, Teslator,
biggie you guys need to do a better. Job if
you get paired up With, jesse come in with the,
nice friendly witty come that way you can Force jesse
to go in the direction that you need him to. Go,

(30:07):
Great Who's who's? House who's house of folks that was
there in, attendance so many. FACES i actually had to
like jot down some of these in my notes, here the,
beautiful The Lovely Tristratus booker T stephanie McMahon was in the. House,
now as far AS i, know we never did hear

(30:28):
The stephanie McMahon story about how she was on the
tour bus and she just happened to Hear John cena.
Rapping now we kind of got it a little bit
during The countdown show When Jackie redmond was interviewing her
and shout out To Jackie, REDMOND i hope she gets
much need at. Rest her voice was damn near about

(30:48):
to blow out and. Everything see them punk Miss John
Barthnell Berth donald always have a hard time the, punisher,
Dude guys know What i'm talking. About Mark Henry SEAMUS
Rvd Corey, Graves Becky, Lynch Cody, Rhodes undertaker and like

(31:13):
some of these. Names, now now mind, you some of
these names That i'm bringing, up they filmed stuff that
was part of a video. PACKAGE i want to make
sure that that's kind of. Stressed but as far as
like the people that were actually in, Attendance, Stephanie Trish,
booker T Ms, Punisher Guy, Mark HENRY, Rvd i'm going

(31:38):
down the list, Here michelle, McCool eve Was Eve torres,
THERE i Think Eve torres was there as. Well elias
was in the House Therese haliburton was in the house as.
Well and then they you, know they combined all These,

(32:00):
oh we kind of zoomed in. Somehow let me see
IF i can figure that. Out so we had all
those people that were in the, house and yet we
also included some really good video footage From, Undertaker Kurd,
Angle Kurt angle who was also there in the. House
IF i didn't mention it, Before Jalen, Bronson Jimmy, Kimmel,

(32:22):
Logan paul had a little. Something it was really cool
how they put all this. Together you could tell that
there was a lot of. Thought there was a lot
of preparation and great execution put into this whole centerpiece
theme of Celebrating John. Cena, Right so everything went so.

(32:45):
Well you, know, now remember WHEN i was with you
guys on the show For, MONDAY i told YOU i
was hearing from some of my sources that, possibly possibly
something might have been bruined For John cena when he
came here TO. Dc, LIKE i was kind of hearing
some rumors, about you, know maybe A keys to The

(33:07):
city or you, know, hey we're gonna make Today John cena.
DAY i was hearing some type of rumblings like. THAT
i was also hearing rumblings That John cena maybe was
going to do something With trump at The White, house
something along those. Lines AND i told YOU i felt
just a tiny bit, confident BUT i was waiting to

(33:27):
hear back from some. Sources and you, KNOW i never
did hear back from my. Sources so if you, NOTICE
i didn't publicly put out an Official, okay here's what's going.
On BUT i know there was news running rampant about
whether or Not trump was going to be in, attendance
whether or Not vince McMahon was gonna be in, attendance
whether or Not shane McMahon was gonna be IN. Dc.

(33:50):
Now look of the names THAT i mentioned to. You
trump has been making it be his business to go
any and. Everywhere now, NOW i saw some footage online earlier.
Today you guys can't correct me If i'm, wrong BUT
i Believe trump had did a coin toss at a
college football. Game IF i am, incorrect let me know

(34:13):
now while we're live or just. Afterwards i'll post something
in the comments and let you know If i'm remembering
it right or. Not shane. McMahon if it turns Out
shane McMahon was in the, HOUSE i don't know anything about.
IT i wouldn't put it Past. Shane and let me

(34:34):
explain to you the reason, why because out here IN,
Dc shane McMahon has close, ties very very close ties
to the. Area he actually was born In, Gaithersburg. Maryland
the hospital that he was born at is actually still
there and, everything so he frequents the area a. Lot

(34:58):
that's my whole. Point even remember right down to the.
Point both times during the XFL's relaunch first well not,
relaunch but both ten years of THE. Xfl so the
initial run of THE, xfl he was out here a
lot and THEN xfl under The rock when it first

(35:20):
when it first actually before The rock acquired, It shane
was hanging out in our. Area and THEN i believe
after The rock acquired THE, Xfl shane was like popping
up in the area. Again so it wouldn't put you,

(35:41):
know it wouldn't surprise me if it turns Out shane
McMahon was actually. There but No, trump no, vents but
we did Get vince McMahon spiritually and a great video
package that was For John cena at the very. End
Did John cena look uncomfortable or did he look uncomfortable
When Cody rhoades and see Him punk entered the ring

(36:04):
and each man gave him their respective world, championships and you,
know the message, was, hey you, know don't worry about.
It you, know we got it from. Here. Right it
kind of reminds me of my FAVORITE A tribe Call
quest final. Album you, know thank you for your. Service
we got it from. Here that's pretty much What punk
And rhodes were saying To John, cena AND i guess

(36:29):
somebody had the idea and they kind of pressed it upon.
Him take the titles and go to each corner and you,
know because you're the. Champ sena did not want to do,
it and you can verbally see him tell those guys
he really didn't want to do and they're, like, no go,
ahead go ahead and do. It so he reluctantly does
it and all. That and To grub's point in the,

(36:53):
Chat TRIPLE h, bailed bald. FRAUD i, GOT i got
any of my? Glasses TRIPLE h bald. Fraud. Yeah, man
the minute That TRIPLE h came out with the rest
of THE wwe roster that was there to gather around

(37:14):
the ring and Celebrate John, Cena TRIPLE h was booed
by us big. Time he was. Bowed and you See
Sean michaels right behind him because he's literally right. There
he's laughing his ass, off and Poor TRIPLE, H you're,
going uh, oh like it sucks to be you right,

(37:35):
now my. Dog and after they did the championship run,
way before they did the video package That sina had
saw at the very end That TRIPLE h you, know
pretty much presented him with and Everything TRIPLE h tried
entering the. Ring hey, man That Capitol One arena crowd

(37:55):
they really choot. Him, knew you, know. What they let
him have it big time and. Rightfully so there's gonna
be a lot of discussion on a lot of shows that's, Saying,
yo The TRIPLE h get this? Right you, know did
did he book this? Right was it a great? Ending
was it a you, know it's, funny not. Funny BUT

(38:17):
i think about a lot of the shows that were
offering match. Predictions, HELL i was on this show offering
match predictions on social media earlier this, week AND i, Said,
yo there's just no way you can Have John cena
losing his final, Match, like come, on the real story
should be Can John cena one more, time just for

(38:38):
one more? Night can he can he become truly The
sena of Old and can he stop this unstoppable force
that's known As goonther that rarely loses a? Match can
he can he? Overcome because you're looking at the fact, That,

(38:59):
Okay John cena lost earlier in the, year he lost
The World heavyweight title back To Cody. Rhodes then ultimately
he he you, know he loses to brock lesnar wins
THE ic belt From dom but then turns right back
around and loses, it and you're going there's just no

(39:19):
way That sena is gonna lose in his final, match
like you, know sure pay it, forward but Like guther's,
already like we Know guther's gonna be all right for
many years to, come like come on, Now and Yet
Paula vekin crew, decided, nah we want to Have guther go.

(39:41):
OVER i guess they love the idea more of. Yo
this Guy sina always, says never give. Up, well he gives,
up and that pretty much is the final time that
we see him in the ring because he finally gave.

(40:01):
UP i don't think people would have had so much
a problem With sina giving up if it would have
come off more like a damn. FIGHT i mean, really
we got to poll up over at THE rcwr show right,
now keeping it, simple asking you, guys what did you
think about Tonight's Saturday night's main. Event we kept it

(40:23):
very simple for you. Guys option one great send off
For John, cena and then option two TRIPLE h messed.

Speaker 1 (40:33):
Up.

Speaker 2 (40:34):
Yo so hit on over To, twitter look me up
at THE rcwr. Show you'll see the poll over there for.
Now you, KNOW i hope you're appreciating this in depth
talk BECAUSE i know some of you guys are, like,
well what did you think about the other. Matches let's go,
Ahead let's go, ahead talk about the other. Matches i'll circle.
Back we'll say a lot more About John, cena but
just off the, break those are like my, instant you,
Know but there were so many mixed. EMOTIONS i, mean you,

(40:56):
know there was a little kid in me that's watching
this great back in fourth match between these two, guys
the ultimate good versus. Evil so you, Know i'm almost
tapped back, into you, know the the five year old
me that first began watching, wrestling you, know in the.
Eighties So i'm going back to, that and you, know
there was a lot of nostalgia that was just happening

(41:18):
on all cylinders with that. Match and just LIKE i mentioned,
earlier so many mixed, emotions so many things running in
my head AS i was watching. This but we'll circle
back and we'll talk a little bit. More it's about
some of these other matches that we had on the.
Cards so opening things, up we Had Cody rhodes taking
On Oba. Femi that was our opener for Tonight's Saturday

(41:41):
night's main. Event, yo, great great match between both of these.
Guys if you checked out my. PREDICTIONS i said to you,
guys this was likely going to end and some type of,
interference and the WAY i mapped it, OUT i, said, well,
no not for, nothing but Maybe drew McIntyre does a

(42:03):
little something. Something Maybe Ricky saints comes in, there does
a little something, something and maybe somehow this sets up
a tag match Between oba And cody Against ricky And drew.
Somehow SO i got part of the equation right, right

(42:25):
BECAUSE i definitely called For, yo we don't need to
see a decisive victor in this match because this is
a future main event in the making. Here don't give
it away right, now, right come back to it later and.
Everything let this be. Unresolved SO i like the fact
this match ended pretty much in disqualification or no contests

(42:48):
Because drew McIntyre got in there and he just started
wailing On Cody. Rhodes after Somehow cody got busted open,
unintentionally so one of his, ears, like all of a,
sudden he's. Bleeding this is crazy the spot that had
went down. There it's funny, too because remember if we
were to go back To SmackDown the night, Before cody

(43:11):
was looking For drew, McIntyre But nick all just told, him,
yeah he's not. Here he's pretty much said it is
a unsafe working environment here IN, wwe and so you hear.
That but then we get that nice little curve ball By.
Drew right, Obah femy pretty pissed off That drew interfered

(43:35):
in his, match chewed into him a little. Bit drew
pretty much is, like what are you gonna do about? It,
well this Is Oba, femmi and, Man drew's a big.
Dude i've Seen drew McIntyre a couple of times AT
wwe live, events And drew is a big. Boy but
god damn compared To Oba Femi, oba especially right now,

(44:00):
Now opa has actually put on for those of you
that haven't Seen oba in a, minute he's put on
even more. Size he's much bigger than in the previous. Months,
WELL i love seeing him just push McIntyre on his
ass at poor McIntyre looking shocked AS i don't, KNOW
i loved. IT i ate it, Up drew coming to his,

(44:23):
Feet cody coming in, there and pretty Much cody And
oba doing a two on one combo On drew McIntyre
and both champions afterwards kind of looking on at each
other kind of, Realizing, yo this needs to be continued
obviously at a later, date but at least for, now

(44:47):
there's mutual respect between both of these. Guys you, know
you can't, help but wonder going forward now The drew McIntyre.
Effect you, know obviously he's got this program With Cody.
Row they're continuing to do their thing. Right obviously we're
gonna see another match play out between these two. Men
likely is gonna play out at The Royal, RUMBLE i would.

(45:09):
Think but then you're also thinking About Oba femi because
now you, know if you're really taking a step back
and you're looking at the bigger, picture Whoa Oba? Femi
he may have just won back THIS nxt, championship but
in this same night that's supposed to be A John cena.
Sendoff you, know he's made an enemy out Of drew

(45:33):
McIntyre and you just can't. Help but wonder if we're
gonna be seeing a lot more Of drew AND. Nxt
don't be too surprised If drew McIntyre may end up
Costing oba THE Nxt World Heavyweight, championship BECAUSE i have
a feeling a lot sooner than, later we're gonna See

(45:55):
oba be part of the main. Roster you can definitely
bank on. That you can definitely bank on. That but
this ain't. Over it's just getting. Started Between oba And
drew McIntyre rest assured about. That and you, know it
was nice seeing this great hybrid integration OF Nxt SmackDown,

(46:20):
roster the raw, roster and then even getting a little
bit of love there FROM tna as well being mixed in.
Here you, know it was nice kind of seeing all these.
Elements by the, Way by the, way how about whoever
started that Rumor Wrestling observer newsletter about The John cena
match that is supposed to be going. On first, LOOK

(46:42):
i remember WHEN i first WHEN i first heard. That
sorry to be, crude But i'm being honest. Here the
first THING i said to myself is why are we
going to third? Base like from zero to ten? Seconds
that defeats the whole purpose of sticking around for the entire. Show,

(47:05):
now no disrespect TO, Aaw no, Disrespect no disrespect TO,
aw no disrespect to its. FANS i KNOW aaw has
a tendency to you think, that oh, wow we're gonna
get this great steel cage match Between Darby island And John.
Moxley oh, man it's gonna be a great main. Event
i'm looking forward to. It and then the load is

(47:26):
blown because that's the first match for the show and you're, like,
wait this is what's? Opening, well, damn how the hell
how they gonna so what's the main? Event this IS
ww that we're talking. About, Man, like we know they're
gonna do things a little bit differently, here, right we

(47:47):
know they're gonna do things a little bit differently. Here
but great opening match Between cody And. Oba oba, Particularly
i'm a fan of. HIS i see nothing but bright
things ahead for this young. Man definitely gonna be a
future impact, player big household NAME ww for years to.

(48:10):
Come he's got a great. LOOK i don't particularly care
for his move. SET i, mean his move set could
be a little bit. More it's very limited right. Now
let me put it to you that. Way it's very,
limited almost limited in A John cena kind of, way you.

(48:35):
Know BUT i think in due time he'll be able
to do more cool stuff for. Sure for. Sure next
matchup on the, card where are we? Here Soul ruka
taking On Bailey Love. THIS i told you, guys this

(48:57):
was gonna be my dark horse match of the end
entire night as far as, like, yo this should definitely
be an underrated sleeper, hit and this match definitely. Delivered
Soul ruka is another one That i'm watching going. YO
i see nothing but big things happening for her in her.

(49:17):
Career she's got one sick ass. FINISHER i love that.
FINISHER i, mean, look let's call it for what it.
Is it is an alternate version OF, rko, Right And
i'm just waiting for the day AND i HOPE wwe
does this like at the Next Russell manei or like

(49:37):
they gotta do this Before Randy orton, retires because you,
know we're on borrow time With Randy orton right. NOW
i need to see a segment where Soul ruka And
Randy orton they're just dishing those finishers. Out, OKAY i
need to see that because that would be just beautiful
poetry emotion. There, man Sol ruka picking up a win

(50:03):
Over bailey made a big name for, herself you, know
and essentially Defeating bailey. Tonight you, know everything That bailey
has accomplished in HER wwe, career definitely a FUTURE Wwe
hall Of famer and. Everything i'm just amazed at the
how gifted Soul ruka. IS i, mean just her, athleticism you,

(50:26):
know and as long as she can continue to stay
healthy and. Everything you, know IF i have any concerns
about Soul, ruka my my main concern IS i don't
know if she's gonna be able to continue doing that
soul crusher finisher of hers for many years to. Come

(50:49):
that's my only little you, know Because i'm looking at
her offense And i'm just, going, yeah it's, good she
can do that right. Now you, know she's gonna be
able tontinue to do that move if she stays healthy
for probably the next seven years give her. Take but you,
know eventually the, aches the, pains like it starts creeping

(51:13):
up on you, there you're gonna pay a physical toll for.
That and SO i can't help but wonder how her
finisher may. Adjust we'll have to just you. Know for,
now it's, great it's great what we're seeing and. EVERYTHING i,
mean when you really stop to think about, it you
can do what makes her move so bad as. Too

(51:34):
by the, way it's just like THE rko when you
really stop to think about it's just like the diamond.
Cutter doesn't matter how big you, are how wide you, Are, okay,
okay you can just hit that move out of nowhere
boom and it. Sells. Right it is a damn good calling,
card it really really. Is and it's funny because when

(51:57):
you think About, Stonecoat Steve, austin you think about The.
Stunner when you think About Randy, orton you think about THE,
rko when you think About Chris, jericho you think about
The walls Of jericho And Soul, ruka you, know with
That Soul. CRUSHER i, mean, man just it's. Perfect it's
hand in, hand, MAN i freaking love. It but, yeah
damn good stuff right. Here you. KNOW i was actually

(52:22):
thinking that Maybe bailey was gonna go over in this,
one cause it just kind of seems Like bailey And
lyra they've been on a little bit of a bumpy
little road as a late and, everything AND i was
kind of hoping that maybe they were gonna kind of
get a nice little rebound here because you're seeing what's
happening with the women's, division definitely with the tag team

(52:44):
division and all, that AND i just kind of thought, that,
well Maybe bailey's gonna get the w. Here they can kind,
of you, know use that right that momentum a little,
bit but the fact that it went the other way
and it went to soul ruka, Yah i'm good with.
That i'm good with that all. Right next, up by the,
WAY i love how they had thank You seina segments

(53:07):
From The, Undertaker The, Rock michelle, McCool, Mark Henry Kurt,
Angle Eve Torres, Tristratus Rob Van, Dam sammy Z. Ain
it was cool Seeing sammy Z ay with his son
in the ring, there not in the, ring but in.
Attendance that was really really. COOL i even remember there
was some video footage there Of Kevin owens as. Well

(53:29):
SO i Miss kevin in the, ring, man, SERIOUSLY i
miss seeing, that. Dude you just think that in a
perfect world maybe it would have been a scenario here
where we maybe would have Seen kevin And sena do
a little something. Something one of the real coolest moments
of the, night by the, Way Michael cole and taking

(53:51):
a moment to thank the people that sat right next
to him through the years and calling some Of John
cena's matches is oh my. God the chef's kiss man
brought Up taz just hearing this Stuff you guys got to.
Understand to hear these names being brought, up it's, ooh

(54:13):
it feels so taboo to the ears because under The
vince McMahon, regime, hey they don't. Exist and we've seen
How vince, McMahon you, know essentially has altered history so to.
Speak you, know it's, like, okay well this person is
now working for this. Company, okay well we're not going

(54:33):
to any highlight. Clips you, Know we're gonna make sure
that we don't have their voice being heard by the. Fans,
instead we'll do, This we'll splice in this or have
this music playing. Instead Queen, PATTY i, know, Well cole
took a moment to. Think taz also Thanked Wade, barrett you,

(54:56):
know pretty much calling the later half Of seen his
career and EVERYTHING. Jbl and then he also gave a
shout out To Jim ross And Jerry lawler and you're, like, yo,
badass like because it's the. Truth all those individuals had
a part in Calling sena matches and. Everything so it

(55:19):
was really it was a nice spot to see how
all of that came full. Circle and then essentially you
get the quick three Second vince McMahon stockpile footage from,
many many years ago talking About sina. Again the one
and only time they Show vince McMahon was at the

(55:40):
closure of the show during the montage. There it wasn't
during this thank you seeing a segment THAT i was
just talking about kind of really gave you a complete.
Picture and it also brings to mind that you, know
you look at WHERE wwe, was y you, know those

(56:04):
early two, Thousands you look at where they, were AND
i tell, you, man it's it's just really stop. It
think about this for a, Second vince, McMahon i'm talking
About Kennedy Hawk hogan and then he Had you, KNOW

(56:28):
i Love Brett. HART i, love, love, love love Love Brett.
Hart but if we're talking about, yo who freaking put the,
company who carried, it who printed money out the ass
whether you like it or, Not hogan's on that. List
and then essentially After, hogan you know pretty Much Sean,

(56:54):
michaels DARE i, say might be, debatable but you could definitely,
go you, Know Sean, michaels most people would Go, Hogan
Austin Rock. Sena some people would even go there's ultimate lists.

(57:18):
Right there really is no wrong because it's gonna be
a different. Answer we could ask this question right, now
everybody's answer is gonna be. Different, now if you were
to ask, me, like you, know how AM i viewing
it this. McMahon you Know i'm Going. Hogan this is

(57:40):
a tough one for, Me But i'm personally gonna Say,
Hogan austin rock Sena. ROMAN i, mean you really take
a step back and you think about. It those are
definitely the guys that was. Right but Remember. Roman you,

(58:03):
know some could even put a little asterisk By roman
because if you were to, say, yeah But, roman he
was ice cold there coming out of the oven. There,
man you know it took some years For roman to
really start start. Cooking, yeah if you want to put
a little astisk By, roman you could do. That if
that's your. Argument, YEAH i think most fans would be, like,

(58:23):
yeah you know that's. True but it's nice just, seeing you,
know going down memory lane thinking about all that. STUFF
i think we got one more match to talk about
and then we'll circle back to the main event there
Between gouther And. Sina for those of you that Watch
saturday night's main, event sound, off let me know what
you thought about the. Event shout out To. Rick rick's, Like,

(58:44):

Again But i'm, Like i'm Like Lewis, Black i'm, like,
what what the what do? You you guys are weird

(59:26):
stuff that you guys are. Learning. SERIOUSLY i just learned
the little rubber you, know rope. DANCE i just learned
how to do that, Finally and now you guys are
like the sixty? Seven what the? Hell WHEN i heard
the sixty, SEVEN i, go what the hell is? That
is that a new form of the sixty? Nine? Like
what The? Sorry? Anyway one more match to talk, about.

(59:50):
GUYS i know my own. Audience that's Why i'm talking
a little, Crude so you guys gotta forgive me one
more match to talk, about and that was the tag,
match one of the shortest matches it kind of felt
like to me on the entire car. Here and that
Was Dragon lee and Aj styles teaming up to defend

(01:00:12):
their tag titles AGAINST X Division champion FROM, Tna Leon
slater and The Overnight sensation, himself The young g And
Javon Evans, Styles Dragon lee coming up with the, victory

(01:00:34):
and what DO i say about that. MATCH i was
hoping the match was gonna be one of those fifteen,
minute you, know twenty five minute kind of. Matches that's
WHAT i was. Expecting but from my, NOTES i had
this match over in like five. Minutes SO i was

(01:00:58):
greatly disappointed with how short this match was because you
just see all these names and you're, like, yo this
is gonna be so, Beautiful like just put the remote, down,
relax like you're about to watch a classic right, here.
RIGHT i, mean don't get me, wrong it was good

(01:01:19):
for what it was, worth BUT i just was, expecting you,
know more bang for the view and came up, way,
way way too. Short but all four men they did pretty,
good you, know for the little bit of time that
they were on and. Everything BUT i WISH i had

(01:01:40):
a little bit more to say to you guys about this,
matchup but SADLY i don't very, short very, short like
WHEN i talk like, this let me be candidate WHEN
i talk like. This my whole thing, is if a
match is gonna be this, short why even bald doing?
It why even bother doing? It if you're not really

(01:02:02):
gonna showcase it the way that it pretty much should be.
SHOWCASED i, mean my, god you're already doing four. Matches,
okay you're only doing four. Matches what's it gonna hurt?
To you? Know, LIKE i don't get. That speaking of,

(01:02:22):
which we had a miss. Segment mis was pretty pissed
off that he and he had opportunities and it just
essentially got squandered. Away But mis coming out hell bent
talking about, how you, know he Beat John cena and
by the, way kind of funny when they were doing
all these montages To John. Cena we keep being reminded

(01:02:47):
as we See miz with a thank, you sena note
and all this other, stuff and yet we've got Asshole
miz out in the ring talking, about, YO i Beat John.
Cena you, know if anybody should be in the ain't
event Against John. Cena you know it should be, me
and he actually brought out the jacket that he wore

(01:03:10):
to Wrestle mania when he Beat John cena for the
W We championship and. Everything leave it To Our truth
to come out, there his old tag team partner From
Awesome truth and basically Some vince McMahon crude. Humor you, know,
HEY i found out what you did With nick all
his balls and Basically Our. Truth this was really weird

(01:03:35):
because if you, blink you might have missed it because
just the absurdity that was happening during this, segment it'd
be enough to make you, go oh this crap again
and then turn a blind. Eye but apparently What Our
truth was trying to relate To miss, was, hey you,
know you kind of screwed this person out of an

(01:03:56):
opportunity to potentially be involved in The John cena. Tournament
and he Gave miss the ball AND ms takes it
out and he's Like Joe hendry and then all of a,
Sudden Joe hendry is just right, there music and all hilarious.
Stuff miss pretty pissed, off you, know Tells Joe hendry

(01:04:20):
to take a hike like he's done with all of
this Silly shenanigan's truth TELLS mis to tread. Lightly he
doesn't tries to take a swing At Joe. Hendry hendrey
whoops that. Ass that's pretty much it for. Him now
we Know henri has signed TO wwe and. EVERYTHING i

(01:04:40):
can't help but wonder if maybe this is the beginning
of what we're gonna be seeing for the next couple
of weeks WHERE ms is going to inadvertently he's bringing
up the Name Joe hendry to make a point and
to follow up on the say his, name and he
appears it's gonna to be kind of one of those

(01:05:01):
running gag things that's, happening that's gonna be driving miss absolutely.
CRAZY i think this is the beginning of. That SO
i hope you're ready for, that if this is WHAT
ww is getting ready to, do because, essentially if you
are A Joe hendry, fan, yeah if we can see
this guy get MORE tv time and he can essentially
pop up in the weirdest places that makes the most

(01:05:24):
sense without it being spammed out in a way where
you're you're not, entertained you're getting kind of bored, then
and AND i THINK ww is gonna do. RIGHT i
think they're gonna do it. Right tonight was a really
good example of. That let's go To i'm just thinking

(01:05:45):
it like as far as more stuff we could talk
about With, Goonther John cena and. Everything, again good match
for what it was. Worth lily And, garcia by the,
way looked stunningly beautiful. Tonight congrats To Lillian. Garcia by the,
Way i'm not sure if you guys had heard the,

(01:06:05):
news but she's. Engaged she is. ENGAGED i can't think
of the wrestler's name right, now but WHAT i do
remember it's a former tag team partner Of Xavier woods
from a, good good while. Ago and Not Kofey kingston

(01:06:25):
for those of you Like Kovie, Kingston. Bigie, no none
of those. GUYS i think his name was is maybe
zach Or. Zachary WHEN i do The monday post show
for you, Guys i'll be able to tell you guys
the name That i'm thinking. Of but, Yeah lillian. Engaged
nice dress that she was wearing. Tonight she looked. Awesome

(01:06:48):
she looked. AWESOME i was a little surprised to see
that there was No Jessica carr or who is the
black female. Referee is it DAF i can't think of
her name right. NOW i was surprised neither one of,
them or Even Nick. PATRICK i was surprised that none

(01:07:12):
of them were the referee for this main event match
Between gouther And John, cena because had they been the,
REFEREE i promise you there would have been less yackety
yak Between goother And John. Cena very very annoyed at

(01:07:32):
that and, everything but the sights and sounds from OUR
dc crowd here took this match to a whole other.
Level this felt like a there we go with that
damn zoom. In this felt like a, oh come, on come,
on don't keep, zooming, then come, on there we. Go
this felt like A WrestleMania type of atmosphere and, everything

(01:08:01):
AND i loved. IT i loved. It this was, definitely
without a shadow of, doubt the Greatest John cena match
Besides i'm thinking about Since John cena has been on
this retirement, tour besides the match WITH Aj, STYLES i

(01:08:23):
am going to say this was my second absolute favorite
match From John. Cena my third would probably be the
first match between he And Dominick mysterio for The icy
title that played out On Monday Night raw and. EVERYTHING

(01:08:47):
i would definitely go with. That gunther proven once again
he's the. Goat and if you're keeping track at, Home
guther is now two and zero when it comes to,
legends particularly At Saturday night's main. Event so heaven forbid

(01:09:09):
you get another legend out there and they end up
having to Face. Goonther they they might not do that
well going up against. Goother and then here's the did
giveaway that you Knew John cena was gonna be, losing
which if you have keen, ears you're watching this at,

(01:09:31):
home you heard, This you're going, okay but still you're
going should be a fun, match should be a great
form of storytelling that they're gonna do. Here and setting this,
up they gave a fun stat right before the match.
Began they said That John cena has never lost In,
washington D. C, Apparently and you're, like wait, why and

(01:09:56):
so when you hear, that you're going shit right, Like
but for what it was worth this, match besides the,
finish it was incredible on so many. Levels love the
storytelling aspects of this as. Well, yeah this was. GOOD

(01:10:20):
i mean, really stop you think about That John cena
has Retired Bill goldberg And John cena On Saturday night main.
Events that is just that's just. Amazing, seriously that's just
amazing WHEN i stop and thinking about. That if anything
noteworthy has happened during the main event post, show pop

(01:10:44):
in the chat let me, know Because i'm, curious especially
if there's like some key information we need to pass. Along,
yeah it's just so, sad you, know after it was
all said and, Done John cena taking off the wristbands
and leave. It some folks out there in the crowd
that actually chant it For sena to take off the.

(01:11:06):
Shorts mind, you these were not women that were chanting
take off the. Shorts, now, Look i'll be straight up
with you. Guys, Okay, now The Capitol Wan, arena you
know it's, uh you, know let me put it to
you this. Way we've Got DuPont circle And Adams, morgan

(01:11:28):
which is very popular amongst THE lgbtq plus. Community, okay
here's the. Thing pretty sure the men that were chanting
To John cena to take off the, jorts pretty sure
they weren't part of THE lgbtq plus. Community so you
don't know if maybe they are like of that p ditty,

(01:11:51):
joint you, know if they running with ditty or, Right
but try to y'all at somebody to take off their,
jorts you, KNOW i mean just picture that grown ass
men take off the. Shorts take, yeah, no, no, no
that's you, know. Guys to the guys that were chanting

(01:12:15):
that Ad, SENA i hope your wives or girlfriends or
your significant other was it like standing right next to
you as you, were because you, Know i'm just picturing
them and they're probably, going, Yeah, sina take off the
jorts because they probably wouldn't see The calvin. Kleines they
want to, see you, know, right they want to see something.

(01:12:36):
Else so, LIKE i don't think the guys were really
thinking that far that we're chanting take off the. Jorts
that's just me. Personally but Seeing John, cena you, know
take off his shoes and all of that socks and
then you, know rolling out and, everything you, know so

(01:12:56):
many mixed. Emotions you, know, look it's not really, goodbye,
Right But sena did condition. Us he, said, look the
next time you see me in wwe not gonna be
having the en ring. Gear like that's officially. Over you're
gonna see me in a. Suit anytime you see ME
ww related going, forward it's going to be in a.

(01:13:19):
Suit and he's already said he's going to be a.
Ambassador he's going to be an ambassador for the next
five years WITH. Wwe so you, know that's. Great that
is really really. Great you, KNOW i think about seeing
us acting career and just how he was off to
a rocky, start AND i know myself and a lot

(01:13:40):
of friends were, like what's this guy? Thinking you, know
we aren't really you, know but here's a guy that
continued to be very. Dedicated he wanted to master. It you,
know like every single thing that this man has pretty
much set out to do in some, form he's been
able to master it. Right and you, know look at

(01:14:03):
where he is. Now you, know HIT tv series In,
Peacemaker he's got The wipeout show ON tbs that's doing really.
Good he's narrating a boatload of car commercials left and.
Right he's he's freaking the, hefty, hefty, hefty you, know

(01:14:24):
trash bad. GUY i, mean what isn't this guy doing?
RIGHT i, mean he's he's really he's really become a fantastic,
ACTOR i have to. Say and it's as a. Fan
it's been an honor and a privilege just to be
on this ride and just watching him, evolve you, know

(01:14:44):
not just as an, actor but just as a as
an overall. Individual you know What i'm, Saying AND i
always say here on this. Show if it's not of,
POSITIVITY i don't want to have anything to do with.
It i've told you guys, This you longtime listeners know.
This i've said it many times over the. Years, RIGHT
i want to be surrounded by people that are about

(01:15:06):
doing something, right you, know not a handout or anything like,
that BUT i want to be surrounded by people that
are all about lifting up the spirits and all of
that of their fellow brothers and. Sisters. Right you, know
because when you constantly, look when it's all said and,
done you are essentially of what is around. You, right

(01:15:31):
think about those external. Forces, right how's your community and
how does that community shape? You the people that you
know in that, community how do they shape your outlook on,
life how you're living and you know what your friends
and family consist, of and all of that. Stuff, Right

(01:15:52):
and so it's so multi. Layered WHEN i look at
a guy Like John, cena there are stuffin the lead
principles that we. All you don't have to be an
individual that's you, know sick or you, know have a
child that is terminally. Ill you can be a young,

(01:16:13):
adult a middle age, adult you, know senior, adult and
there's just so much that you can take as an
inspiration to you, know let me tell you, something and
this isn't me Just i'm being real with. You take
it from. Me IF i can take a lot of the,

(01:16:35):
sentiments the words That John cena has put out there
over the, years AND i can go in my forties
AND i can go get my associate's degree from one,
college then transfer to another college to get my bachelor's in,

(01:17:02):
journalism WHICH i just wrapped. Up i'm gonna read wrap
up my first semester at this new. College SO i
basically transferred from community to this. One i've got essay
finals That i'm getting ready to. Do easy to, squash,
Right but like all my, classes Like i've gotten nothing

(01:17:25):
but a's one, class just one, class my government. Class
But i've never been a fan of. GOVERNMENT i like
to C but, like you, know IF i can take
some of these core principles That John cena has been
putting out there many times over the. Years, YEAH i

(01:17:49):
love his words of wisdom. Too you always write some
motivational thing every single. Day he never misses a. Beat you,
know IF i can learn something about myself and. Everything
i'm not Saying i'm. PERFECT i still make, mistakes, right
but each TIME i wake up and it kind of
goes back to What Becky lynch was saying about How

(01:18:09):
John cena was talking to her about that match she
had With lyra and how it didn't go well and.
Everything you, know each new day for all of us
puts us in a really great position, Where, okay it's
the start of a new, Day so what do we
plan on doing? Today how are we going to be
a more better version of ourselves than we were? Yesterday,

(01:18:31):
right always striving for, more never. Settling, right it really
is never giving. UP i have a sign that's in the.
HALLWAY i go past it every. DAY i wrote this
many years. Ago many years. Ago i've even shared this
on social. Media some of you guys may recall, this
BUT i have no problem sharing. It first, thing, like

(01:18:54):
maybe as soon As i'm either off the air OR
i do the next show going Into, monday, HELL i
might post it like first thing tomorrow. MORNING i have
this sign and it says remember to Always it says
remember to always stay, focused stay, hungry stay. Humbled and,

(01:19:27):
MAN i must have wrote that on the Little squeezee
board about nine years. Ago and WHEN i first showed
it to my, wife she, goes that's really. Cool she's,
LIKE i just got two THINGS i want to add to.
That i'm, like, okay and so she took the little
marker as she wrote as she, wrote never give up

(01:19:56):
on what your heart truly. Desired And i'm, like right
still on the, wall like we both go past it
every single. Day, Right not to get too, philosophical BUT
i kind of have a, feeling you know a lot
of people that are just gonna kind of go in

(01:20:17):
a more different, direction but, like there really IS i
THINK i think people that like grew up Watching John,
cena y'all kind of know What i'm talking. About, right
we were, Here we kind of know what we're talking.
About let's go to that. Poll gotta poll up at
THE rcwr Show Via. Twitter wanted to know what you

(01:20:39):
guys had thought about Tonight's Saturday night's main event now
that it's in the. Books wanting to know how would
you Rate John cena send? Off we damn two, options
great send. Off TRIPLE h messed up right, now saying

(01:21:02):
six percent of you said it was a great. Sendoff
meanwhile ninety four percent of you Said TRIPLE h messed.
Up i'm just curious if we go through some of
the comments on social. MEDIA i guess this. Happened during

(01:21:24):
the post, Show TRIPLE h announced That Saturday night's main
EVENT i guess For tonight was the highest grossing arena
event IN ww, history shattering The january Sixth netflix debut
gate of nearly six million dollars at the end To
It dome and breaking The Capitol one arena's internal gate

(01:21:46):
record as well for any. Company SO, dc you, know
holding it, down that's that's. Great TRIPLE h tried to rebound,
too apparently during the post, show as he Joined Biggie,
Joe Tessa tour And Michael. God who's the guy the

(01:22:11):
ballhead Not Sam, roberts the other guy used to Do
hot ninety. Whatever TRIPLE h said he's disappointed in the
booing and thought it would be. Louder i'm. DEAD i am.
Dead that is. Good just see trying to see if
there's any other comments on. Here some people feel That

(01:22:36):
Jay jays saying ladies and gentlemen to night professional wrestling
destroyed sports. Entertainment To ar's comment in the chat when he,
said BRO i literally cried watching. That, yeah a lot
of mixed. Emotions WHEN i Saw John cena just do
that nonchalant tap, OUT i choked. UP i cried and

(01:22:57):
THEN i immediately, yes me grown like very, rare very,
rare DO i? Cry you, know the last TIME i
cried was over a year ago when My Pickanese maggie
of like eighteen years passed. Away closest BOND i ever

(01:23:20):
had to an animal to. Date you know that that
was my daughter as far As i'm, concerned you, KNOW i,
MEAN i have three little Young yorkies, now but you,
Know maggie was the og. Man that was like the
last TIME i cried before, That like legit cried before,

(01:23:41):
that whatever year it was That Chris Cornell's soundgarden, died,
Right so it takes a lot Too AND i don't,
know like for, me it was just the first THING i,
SAID i, said, Bullshit so this is. Bullshit it's, like
how do you have this man in his final? Match
like this doesn't and even if you were to say to, me,

(01:24:03):
no it makes all the sense in the. World it's,
like could we have booked it a little? Better could
we have put maybe a little bit more effort into?
THIS i don't. Know. Aj we are the last generation
that BELIEVE, wwe a scripted form of, entertainment was real.

(01:24:27):
Fighting during that, time for growing children and, youngsters ww
was the BIGGEST tv entertainment next To. Crickets clip collector
saying that Motherfucker Bald fraud is now doing retweets after

(01:24:49):
the shoot Booking derek wasn't going to drink, tonight BUT
wwe fumbled the bag On John cena's final. Match i'll
read a couple of more to you. Guys Even TRIPLE

(01:25:14):
h Cannot this is from The Crimson. Empire Even TRIPLE
h cannot escape the justifiable chance from disgruntled. Fans though
we Want vince. Chance, yeah you, know and LOOK dc knows.
Again it goes back To Capitol, Championship Capitol Championship, wrestling

(01:25:37):
When vince McMahon sior first, started you, know the wrestling
and all that out here and what would ultimately become
the wwwf And vince, McMahon LIKE dc and, wrestling we
are just we're, ingrained you, know we are joined at the.
Hip and so for OUR dc crowd particularly to, say, yo,

(01:26:05):
frickin' you, know we Want vince, like that's not a impulse,
thing that is not, overreaching that's not being you, know super.
Sensitive by the, way a little fun trivia for you.
Guys you know How vince McMahon's new company is Called
fourteenth AND i that ties back to basically out here

(01:26:31):
in D c and pretty much where the main headquarters
used to be for his Dad's Capitol Championship wrestling for
back in the. Day so that's why it's called Fourteenth
AND i look it up if you don't believe, me but, yeah,
No i'm tell YOU, Dc, Maryland, virginia we are just

(01:26:53):
history and buffs when it comes to our. Wrestling you,
know we are appreciators of wrestling from. Yesteryear so to
hear that the crowd said what they said and they
said we, want thence not surprised because deep down, inside
and you can take this universally deep down, inside many

(01:27:16):
of us have looked at This John cena run and, said,
now if it wasn't for the. Scandals vince McMahon would
have booked this much. Different there would have been more,
quality better quality put into. This and now let me
make Sure i'm understanding this. Correctly allegedly Brock. Lesner so

(01:27:36):
let me SEEF i got this. Straight we got Brock
Lesner allegedly he's gonna be retiring in twenty twenty. Six
we know for a fact Aj styles is going to be.
Retiring he's doing his final year WITH Wwn wrestling in. General,
okay the rumors are running rampant About Chris jericho and
basically him getting a retirement run in Ww but with

(01:28:01):
what we saw of how everything was handled With John
cena right on up till the, End i'm very curious
to see how my friends in the podcasting world are
gonna be reacting to This Sena guther. MATCH i really

(01:28:22):
hope we did it justice by talking about, it but,
like just for the, RECORD i want to make sure
that our words are not taken out of. Context the
match was, Good it was, good the finish very bitter,
taste even if that was going to be the end

(01:28:42):
result That sena was gonna give. Up, YEAH i think
about What biggie has said during The countdown, show he, said,
LOOK i don't want to go Against John, cena BUT
i just feel This gunther is on a whole new other.
LEVEL i, Paraphrasing but the one thing that he did
say is is, YO i wouldn't be surprised If John
cena ended up with a crimson face because this guther

(01:29:06):
don't play, around, Man like this is gonna be a
tough ass. Battle and Even Jesse ventura was, like you know,
WHAT i agree with Big. E i Think gunther is
gonna win. This so it could have it could have
been done much. Differently you, know for those of you that's, Wondering,

(01:29:28):
ah maybe there's gonna be some type of a loophole
and and maybe we'll, somehow somehow we'll get to See
John cena at maybe a Wrestle mania or. No you,
know it'll be interesting If John cena will even do
something For Saudi. Arabia that's gonna be the real tell right,

(01:29:51):
There like how retired is this? Dude? Right how retired
is he gonna do? Something if The Saudi prince is
LIKE i Want John, cena like one more TIME i?
Want or Is John cena really gonna stick to his
principles and, say you, know, hey if you want, me
you'll get, me but you're gonna get me in a.
Suit i'm not. WRESTLING i am. Done like no amount

(01:30:15):
of money in the world, like, No i'm, Right sina
doesn't need the, money, Right it's just a principal. Alone
it'll also be interesting to see If sina stays. Retired,
HONESTLY i think he. WILL i truly believe he will stay.
RETIRED i would be really shocked to see him get

(01:30:38):
back in the ring and all. THAT i think he's
taken a really good page and has learned what he's
been able to learn from peers of. Yesteryear that also
Includes Big Dave batista and. Everything you, KNOW i understand, something,
Folks most wrestlers they. Don't, sadly there's no such thing
as the perfect Sendof there's no such thing in today's

(01:31:03):
day and. Age there's no such thing as, oh, WELL
i wanted to go out this. Way you, know some
people don't a lot out. Wrestlers they don't get that.
Opportunity so For sina to be able to have some
type of say and how he wanted to go out and, everything,

(01:31:23):
yeah you, KNOW i still don't like it doesn't mean
it doesn't mean you gotta like it. Either you know
