(00:58):
ladies and gentlemen, welcome to anotherepisodic adventure. This is the return
of Taka Babeah. I'm your cohosts here with the Boozer Wade himself Jim
Um say hello, my friend,it's been a while, Yes, it
has it's been a little while.A little bit of macho with a little

(01:19):
bit of Jake the Snake in there. Yeah that. I wasn't even going
for that. I was just tryingto sound cool. But that's like the
smoking, drinking voice of Jake theSnake with the oh yeah there, yeah
yeah. Man. You were sicklast week. I'm sick this week.
So sick. But yeah, I'mon the tail end of it. It's
the hev baby. Everyone's got theyeah. Man. We've been busy.

(01:42):
We are on summer's schedule, butat the same time, like I've been
wanting to record. It's been somuch going on the rest it's gonna I'm
really looking forward to today. Ifelt good enough. I was going to
pick up my daughter and I waslike, I'm really stoked to talk about
all the juicy gossip and things thatwe've been missing on over the past few
weeks. We're gonna get into ittoday. Go a lot to cover.
We are going into Hell and theCell this weekend, so we will give

(02:02):
our predictions the show. Fuck,I thought it was money in the bank,
No, bro, I thought itwas money in the bank. This
I was so exciting. Well,you know, I go in not expecting
a lot. I feel like theHell the Cell might be one of those
ones where you go in not expectinga lot and end up might end up
being pretty good. Is Cody andSeth in sel? Yes, it's good

(02:23):
to be good. Yeah, yeah, So we'll talk about that as well
too in our predictions. But Ilike to build up again. We were
talking at our last episode how Iwas kind of like tired with I mean,
I love the matches between the twoof them, but I also feel
like too much is maybe sometimes twomonths and I was worried about going into
a third match between the two ofthem, But the buildup has been exceptional,
even this past week. You know, they went the usual route of

(02:44):
like you know, kind of youknow where they brawl and then you need
to be separated by officials and stufflike that, and it's been like super
done over and over and over.It was done again, and I was
worried the fact that it would belike the same mentality of like okay,
a yawn, but the fans usuallylike it. But it was done really
well. And I think like Cody, just because you know, Seth played

(03:07):
the kind of the coward he wasin the crowd up up on the stands
kind of talking to Cody, andCody said like, fuck this man,
I'm crossed over the barrier. I'mgonna kick your ass. And they did
a lot of good brawling breaking tothe barrier. They separated them. Cody
ended up like getting put backstage andthen running back out again. And I
know it sounds like it's been hashedand rehashed, but like it was really
really well done. The promo wasreally goodws now letting them say a little

(03:30):
bit of like acknowledging the aw Realmthought that, yeah, no, I
didn't know. He's just like,you know, you want to come here
and you want to you know,uh, fulfill your dad's legacy, not
on my watch. And he kindof goes on to say, like,
you know, you left here totry to tear down to start something with
you and your friends, to teardown what I've built. You know,

(03:51):
you brought your sledgehammer to the throne, and now you come back. You
know, Like he kind of likewent on and talked about those things.
So it's kind of cool that they'reacknowledging. I like it a little bit.
I think they have too right.I think it adds a good element
to it, don't see why not? Like, come on, man,
and you know, look we talkedfrom MJS promo and we see the and
from coming from aw they can't keepW's name out of their mouth. I

(04:13):
like it though, Yeah, yeah, And it's fine. It's fair game
and it makes it exciting and italso blurs the lines, right, and
we're gonna that's gonna be a bigtopic that I want to get to as
will too, because we won thefucking Friday Night fights. Yeah, we
won the fucking Friday a war.That was something else. Hey where he's
kind of going off and seeing Punk'slooking at him like, oh my god,
how much blow did this guy do? And the Friday the Friday Night
War was like one Friday where thew W win a half an hour longer

(04:36):
and Dynamite Rampage beat them in thathalf an hour or something like that,
so they call it. They consideredthat a war. I don't know,
you know, that was a prettyshort war. Half an hour? What
an eighty three weeks? That's forsure? Yeah, I mean whatever,
man, Tony Cohen is a fuckingmark, right, He's a money mark.

(04:56):
Did you hear Bully Ray? Talkabout it. Uh no, not
not necessarily. What was this?I caught almost every show this week.
I'm gonna miss this, bully Ray. It was this Saturday show. You
don't catch those normally. Yeah,that's the only one I usually open,
though, aren't they like the usualthe master Class one or whatever they call
it. Saturday is the name.It's like the Classics Saturday and something like,

(05:16):
where they all, yeah, it'sthe master Class. It's when it's
like Tommy Henry. But this wasn't. This was just bullying and the other
host, not Dave Lacs, theweekend host. Dude, the weekend host
is kind of just kind of annoying. Yeah, but no, he was
just basically saying, how cool wouldit be a cmpunk won? And then
pipe bombed right after and was like, Tony Kahn, you idiot, you

(05:41):
paid me all this fucking money,you strapped me with the fucking belt.
You're just a rich boy, You'rejust a money mark. And then get
you know, have him, havehim turn heel, and then you can
create some like such an ultra faceout of somebody to go again. I
think you would almost make like whatyou're telling me right now excited me.
Get little bumps and I'm actually gonnasupport uh CM punk if he did that,

(06:03):
and he would become a face Iwould love to see, like Tony's
like what did I do? Icreated a monster and then having to send
like superstar after superstar to take totry to take that belt off because we
loved that, right, that wasthe best part, and I was talking
to it. I wasn't to doit today. I think Tommy Dreamer was
talking about it. How like youknow when he did that pipe bomb and
he won that championship and he leftthe arena like there is there's not many

(06:25):
fan reactions like that, Like wecould talk about when CM punk redbuted and
that was a big evasion. Butlike I feel like like moments in crowd
during matches, like I go backand I watched that periodically, not so
much because I'm a punk fan,but it was such a never seen it
yes, oh yeah, it wassuch cool. And he had his old
theme music too, and I thinkhe would love that song. Um,

(06:46):
but there's nothing about punk. Ilike, there's nothing about punk. I
like, so here's a funny thing, right, Like I was a big
punk fan when he was in WWE. I liked him like the pipe Bomb.
I thought the pipe bomb is overblown. I think it's a stupid name
for it obviously was fake, butI also think m jf's promo last night
also was the fake. But we'llget But since he's come to aw like,

(07:08):
I liked him coming back. Iwas excited, but I don't know,
man like not digging him as much. He's definitely not as he's definitely
not as let's put this delicately,as good as he used to be.
I guess you could say, yeah, he's definitely missed a step. I
mean, he tried that buckshot Larryat twice this past weekend. He tried

(07:29):
it failed and then he tried itagain to make up for it, which
fair enough, okay, but hedid it twice and then on Dynamite this
past week he also tried another springboardagain and failed again. So like,
look, he's older. I totallyget it. And I think I was
talking to about this through text.It's like, honestly, like it was
weird how punk was thrown into thistitle picture all of a sudden, right

(07:49):
Like, I guess he was goingto get there sooner or later. But
I also feel like they might havebeen looking at it and being like,
Punk's window might be smaller than wethink. So if we're gonna put the
strap at him any point time,let's do it. Let's do it now.
Let's put the title on him.You're gonna head it into the summer.
You have these matches here, youknow, within the new Japan Pro
Wrestling, They're gonna put him onthe trajectory to have like a nice run

(08:11):
throughout the summer, and you know, we'll see what happens. But I
don't know. I'm not as abig fan as I was in the w
I'm not like, like, youknow, Punk's not I'm not, nah,
I don't like see him punk asa person. Oh okay, I
think I think. I don't know. He just seems like a fucking piece
of shit. Um. I actuallyreally liked that he couldn't do the lariat.

(08:39):
I feel like they got lucky thathe couldn't do it. They're gonna
come back to that one day.I think, if it's possible, well
he's gonna do it, actually doit successfully. No. I mean the
fact that like he couldn't it kindof glorified the Buckshot Lariat. Oh yeah,

(09:00):
that's a good point to look atit, you know what, I
hold on, hold on because yougotta be careful, right because watching Ruby
Right put that sharpshooter did not glorifyeverybody's sharp shoot There's a few sharp shooters,
yeah, there's like six that night. They were all trash. The
only one that was decent was Punksslightly, and I think it started slipping
off. But nobody, nobody cando a sharp shooter. And I actually
felt like Ruby Right was maybe evengonna win over bit Baker in that moment,

(09:24):
And if she went won with thatsharpshooter, that would have been the
worst thing ever, right, h, I don't even want to comment on
it. That was the ugliest thingI've ever seen Darby Allen's I mean,
thank god they called it the ScorpionDeathlock, because that thing was trash.
I thought Darby was gonna almost killedhimself at one point when he dived out
the ring as well. Yeah,I mean, okay, we're jumping around
a little bit, but the thingwas sampunk. Is this It's the smartest

(09:48):
thing they could have done. Thetitle Reign of I loved. I really
like Hangman page, but I agreethat that he was in the main focus,
right yeah, so yeah, yeah, And here's the thing. Whoever
beat cmpunk beat Sampunk for the championshipand that's gonna be big for somebody else.
Well, now people are talking about, like what's gonna happen with cmpunk,

(10:11):
And you know, we had thatMJF promo you know where, and
when the camera went off, cmpunk actually came down to the ring,
MJF high tailed to the crowd.So a lot of people are thinking that,
like m JF is gonna be cmpunkand c hmpunk is gonna be the
John Cena where MJF is gonna talkabout one lead the company and tries to
take the title as he leaves.Right, So again another rehashed idea.

(10:35):
You know, but these are allideas, like look, he calls Tony
Khan mark, right, but TonyKhan takes all the things he likes and
brings them over like the Undisputed.They literally called them the Undisputed Elite.
They literally called him that they havemerchandise. And like you hear Adam Cole
talking on the headset and you're like, I wouldn't be surprised if at one
point they say undisputed er just bysure, yeah, exactly, throw it

(10:56):
throw Oh it's still yue right rightright, yeah, you're right, it
actually is the hand signal note becausethey haven't so I imagine the hand singgnals
might be might be trademarked as well. But um, like he takes all
the things that we like and likewe all love to interviewed era. They
broke it up and Tony khns like, fuck it. I like it.
Let's keep it going, and let'skeep it going, you know with us,

(11:16):
Let's bring the hardy boys over.I like the hardy boys. I
like gang Grel, you know,and the the heart you know, like
Gangrel. There was a nice touch, like I don't know, he's a
real treat. I like the factthat, um, Tony Cohn gives us
what he gives us. There's somany cool things about AW. I also
like just like to watch Tony.He's a very fascinating person to watch.
He is. His hug on whateverher name is, Heart was so fucking

(11:41):
cringey. And here's a question,right, how the hell does Owen Heart's
wife look like going hurt? Yesright, yes, yes, okay,
I'm like looking at the kids,I'm like, Wow, their kids look
like ohing Heart and then I'm likethe older one too, and then then
I was like, oh, that'shis wife. I would love to see
j step into the ring. Ibet you they don't want to because of
like the whole thing that happened withOwen and they want to keep away from

(12:03):
wrestling. But man, I'd loveto see him go, like I think
he can maybe you know, douh, you know, fulfill his dad's
prophecy win that championship and that OwenHeart music is so good, like someone's
got to use it, right,Yeah. But the thing about that tournament
too is like you think about OwenHeart, what it represent. It represented
like Owen Heart, right, hewas a true heel. Right, he

(12:24):
also was a great technical wrestler anda high fly or to some degree.
But I found like a lot ofthe matches and the people that were like
the people that were selected for itdidn't always make the most sense for me,
and the match styles and stuff andthe way they would do things like
Darby and Jeff Hardy like doesn't makesense. They were doing all these high
flying stunts, which is questionable inmy opinion, but like you should have

(12:48):
had technical matches you should have had, Like, look the the FTR dude
that was in there, the twoFTR dudes. They had a match that,
like we talked about it, ithad a lot of like Bret Hart
versus own Heart kind of thing.I would have liked to see that guy,
the Daks guy or whatever, thebald guy with the mustache. I
would have been down for him towin the whole tournament. And I know
that's stretching it because it's like thisguy's a tag team wrestler, but like

(13:09):
nobody loved the Hearts more than thisguy. And I'm okay with Cole as
well too, and Baker, youknow whatever. I guess it kind of
is interesting because there are a couplein all. I like the titles.
They look like the Canadian Stampede belts, which is awesome, But I don't
know, man like, for atournament that was for owen Hart, it

(13:30):
was really half as strown together onthe fly and there was no like,
I don't know, it didn't reallysuit Owen Hart. If I could knitpick,
I still enjoyed the tournament. Butin that same time, does anybody
believe that Adam Cole's gonna beat somemo, Joe, come on, little silly,
little siddily. You know. Isaw mixed reactions about who who won.

(13:54):
They're like, you have you havea tournament to put somebody over,
and you chose to put over likeguys that are already over. But I
kind of look at like this,it's the inaugural one, right, so
have two big people in it,and then everybody after that. You know,
when you look back, you're like, you know, post winners like
Adam Cole and Britt Baker, they'rewalking the same path as they did.

(14:18):
Like I understand that you got tomake the first one big. You're also
not going to give Adam Cole thechampionship. You're not. She's not gonna
be a w champion, at leastnot for a while. So I think
I think I think he will be. I'm saying not for a while,
not for a while. And Ithink that, um, this was a
nice like secondary thing for him,right, like, hey there you go,
buddy, you know, like weappreciate you too, Adam Cole,

(14:39):
thanks for coming. You're cute,so so double or nothing. The longest
pay per view of all time,right, it was long. It was
good though. I I okay,So I enjoyed it the entire time.
There was not a point where Iwas like, ah, was it great?
No, were They're really sloppy,Like the first half was pretty shit,

(15:03):
Like how many people came out duringthat one match? Who was it?
It was like a match didn't evenmatter Kara Jade, No Jade,
Cargyle and Manna j Like twenty sevenpeople walked out on that match, right,
And then we had Athena and Bermoonshow up, And it's like interesting
because I actually I am an AmberMoon fan, but I now I'm a
little bit soured on her because Ifelt like she's a bit salty in terms

(15:24):
of like giving an interview and shootingon the w W and stuff like that
too, Like I get it,it's not a great place, but you
know, we've made our feelings felthere on taka Mania in terms of like
the w and like sour grapes andall that shit. So anyways, look,
she debut is a aw and herdebut is just like kind of coming
out almost that's an afterthought in thatmatch, right, like it wasn't a
debut. Who cares? And thenthis past week she gets to come out

(15:46):
and talk to Tony Hivanni for alittle bit, and then Jake Cargo comes
out and fucking like puts her herplace and carry gils so great, right,
Like she hasn't even hit her prime. She's still an amage her,
but she's still has such a presenceand and you know she's gonna beat Embers
well Athena as well too. Right, So Athena came in, didn't have

(16:07):
a great debut, and she's literallygonna job out to Jade, which isn't
like it's not a shameful thing,Like Jade is a good champion. But
let's wait and see what happens fourmonths from now when Athena's you know,
probably on dark or YouTube and maybeeven with Tony Storm as well. Like
we're looking at it right like it'shappening. It's happening with a lot of
the superstars that are around, right, Like you really got to find yourself

(16:30):
in a good program, a goodniche Like now we got Keith Lee with
Swerve Strickland and that's good. Um, but you know what happens when that's
over. You know where these guysgonna go. So I don't know,
the roster is super bloated, it'sstupid big and m Jade talks about it
like, you know, like lookthe heart of the matter, right,
like this whole MJF thing, youknow, I think there's a lot of

(16:52):
realism to it, and there was. Initially he did that into with Aeriel,
right, the dude from Montreal,and Tony Kahn did not give him
the clearance to do it, andI think he used that as a platform
to kind of start like you know, stirring the pot to try to put
pressure on to get like you know, maybe a raise or to get a
good contract or to be resigned orwhatever it is. But I don't know,
man, like Tony seems to begiving up money to the people I

(17:14):
guess you could say who's maybe beenaround a little longer, like you can't
really shit on Christian or you can'tshoot on like you know, Samoa Joe
or you know, see how Punkfor coming and these guys have put in
the miles, right, But healso has a good point in saying that,
like, look, you know,he's at the level that they all
are. At least he's performing.You know, he's going out there,
He's hitting grand slams every week,Like if you look at all the pivotal

(17:36):
moments and aw, these these matchesand these promos, like MJF has a
huge hand in all of them.So I get where he's coming from.
And I guess he looks at himselfas like a you know, he was
day one. He's loyal, andhe feels it's more about he feels he's
undervalued. And I think when he'dno show to the event this weekend past
weekend for the signings, that waslegit. And I think, like,

(18:00):
you know, obviously you have fanswho wanted to go, We're gonna pay
money. You got the refund them, Like that's a loss of income.
I don't think that was planned.And then we weren't sure if they were
going to show up, right,I believe though, since then in between
Dynamite, I feel like Tony andMJF talked. I feel they came to
an agreement. Maybe he did signa new contract. I don't know.

(18:21):
Maybe you got a big bonus.And then they said, okay, not
being said, let's continue this andlet's make it a story. Go out
there and just eviscerate me. Goout there and just cut the promo that
you'd want to cut, right,now like thinking pretending what we didn't sign
a contract or whatever, tell ushow you feel. And that's exactly what
he went out and did. Imean like he would get fired, right,
He could easily if he wanted toget fired, he could get fired

(18:44):
right. And today I don't knowif you read, but like they removed
his profile from the roster on thewebsite. You can no longer buy his
merchandise, so they're taking a smallhit in terms of sales to kind of
make this storyline go further. AndI like that. I enjoy it.
I like when they blur the lines. And obviously now at this point it's
like, okay, well right now, it's obviously a work and you know

(19:07):
they're going in some direction with it. But I love it and it's exciting
and yeah, I mean MJF hiton the head that he makes you feel,
and I can't wait to see nextweek what happens. Is MGF the
best thing let's come out of aw Yeah, he probably is. Yeah.
And actually they were saying today thatif MJF defected the WWE, it

(19:29):
would actually probably be a bigger defectionthan Cody. Oh yeah, to let
a guy twenty six years old atthat talent slip through your fingers. But
part of me also thinks like it'sCody Rhodes Man. Part of me also

(19:51):
thinks that, like, I don'tknow, Man, I think MGF,
I think is a destination. Man. I have this feeling like he's just
smart enough if he knows he wantsto be a superstar. Man doesn't want
to be a wrestler. He's notthe best wrestler out there either. He's
a superstar, But it really comesdown to can he be who he is
if he goes over the w Idon't think if he has to compromise that

(20:12):
he might not want to do it. So that's the only it's the only
thing I can see and Cody,And to be fair, man, Cody's
been actually like I'm, you know, waiting for the honeymoon to be over,
but he's still doing fairly well.Cody's doing well. Then they have
a fucking clock on him once itwas one week. Yeah, they're just
milking it, like making fun ofit because it's funny. And Ko was

(20:33):
like, why don't I have aclock? You know? But mjf aw,
I mean who else has made whoelse? Is purely an aw guy.
I mean Wardlow's over is fuck becauseof m JF. Yeah, because
of m And look at that thisweek, Like honestly, it was almost
like overshadowed, like he won,people were excited, and then what happens

(20:57):
like he came out and squashed himdude this week and MJF comes out and
we all forgot about Wardlow already.So it's like, I mean, I'm
you know, not, I mean, we'll be Bardo, will be fine.
But yeah, I mean, Idon't know. I mean I like
this. I like when they blurthe lines. Yeah, it's enjoy I
wish it was more blurred now becauseit does seem like quit. Yeah,

(21:18):
but I mean like at one point, how can you make it? You
know, Like I don't know,it's just I guess right now they're trying
to remove his merchandise and furthering thatnarrative and using those as examples to be
like, well, look, youknow, why would they remove his merchandise
Because they're losing sales they do that. But it's like Tony CON's like,
yeah, okay, I'll miss outon a thousand dollars this week, whatever,
you know, like or you know, Tony says he doesn't want to

(21:38):
be on TV. I want Tonyon TV. He will be on TV.
Tony will also be in a wrestlingmatch at some point. I'm sorry.
The authority was always good until thePGR right. Bischoff was amazing thing

(22:00):
in WCW, the whole thing,an impact everybody seemed to like with Dixie
Carter and all that shit. Austin, I'll still go on record in my
opinion and say, we talk aboutRicky Dragon's Team Boat, Macha Man Ready,
Savage, Whole Coogan, Ultimate Warrior, the Rock, Stone Cool,
see Boston, Sean Michael's Brett Mine. I think the best feud in wrestling

(22:22):
of all time is Stone Cool,Steve Boston and Mr McMahon. Yeah,
yeah, it's it's It's definitely inthat debate, no doubt about that.
Tony conversus MJFF. I don't evenknow when mgf's finish for his dude Assault
of the Earth. It's an armbar. Okay. Yeah. MJFF is

(22:42):
great, There's there's no denying it. He's even great in his loss to
Warlow. There's something about the waythat this guy, he's got this presence,
his attire is always spot on it'sgot the old school like hostel colors,
a little bit of a like anhomage to fucking what's his name there,

(23:03):
that Quebecer guy they got killed,Brasco, Brasco, Brasco, Donnie
Brasco. What's his name? DinoBravo, Dino Bravo. It was like
his colors. I like the purplethat he had on the other time.
There's just something about this motherfucker man, and even the little things he does,
like when Warlow has him, he'lllike poke him in the eyes suddenly
or something. Yeah, yeah,yeah, yeah, yeah, it was

(23:23):
good. Yeah, he's very clever. I love him, Jeff, I
think he's fantastic. Yeah, Andeven if he signs with AW, like
if I was him, Like,honestly, he's twenty six, right,
so he's got a career ahead ofhim. I would love him to see
to go go to WWE, aslong as he can kind of keep who
he is and negotiate that he shouldstill test the waters and not sign anything.
He should wait because his value isonly going to increase, right,

(23:45):
But you know, he also couldbe striking while the iron's hot, like
he is peak right now, right, So it's like why not negotiate now,
because when I could happen in fourmonths from now, five months from
now, he could be injured onthe shelf for six months, you know,
and then it just makes it alot harder for him to negotiate.
So he's actually very smart to kindof go into business for himself here.
And uh, I don't know.I mean, like maybe there is some

(24:07):
truth behind it. You have allthese x WWE people coming in one after
the other after the other with theother it's it's stupid. It's at a
point where it's I mean I watchedDouble or Nothing. This is the first
people of you I have watched sincemaybe Double or Nothing last year in AW
and it's literally like I'm watching WWE, well noither at the point where they're
bringing Johnny Elite, right John Morrisonand he hasn't won a match. He

(24:30):
just comes in and loses the jobsto the he jobs to the ww people
that come in. Well, hejobbed in w w E two. Yeah,
well he was. He was achampion and Impact. But I mean,
I guess that's not saying too much, but like I didn't watch Impact
ever, but now when I seeclips of it, I'm like, Oh
that's that's aw Like, that's justwhat it looks like. All these x

(24:52):
WWE guys still kind of having theirw w E stick. Like Adam Cole's
the same. Yeah, he's exactly. Even when the Iconics went over there,
they kept the iconic gimmick. TheIconics are where we were, but
now they retired because they decided onlyfans. I don't know if you know
this, but that's where all thewomen wrestlers or divas or whatever you call

(25:12):
them are going to. And I'llcall them divas actually I'm not saying that
to insult them, but like there'scertain women wrestlers, they're they're wrestlers,
right, But then the Iconics,I'm sorry, they kind of fall more
towards diva, right, Like wecould agree, Lana more towards diva,
you know, Bailey more towards wrestler, Sasha more towards wrestler. You know,

(25:33):
you know, you have those peoplethat are in between hers. But
but yeah, I mean, Idon't know, like now they're all doing
only fans and making like I think, like twenty thousand dollars a week or
something. Why the fuck not?You know, I'm a hater because I'm
fucking jealous, and I wish Ihad two titties that I could show Jesus
Christ. I know, dude,the only fans now, that's what they're

(25:55):
all doing. They're all just doingonly fans now. Mutton night Jack's too,
she's doing her only fans as welltoo. And I know, I
know. I'm just going to tellyou some people like that. Some people
like that. Look, Nikita Lionsis super over, so you know,
it goes to show you. Iget that. I'm down for that.
She could split on my face.Yep, I'm cool with it. What

(26:15):
did you think of wild Thing playingduring the beginning of that match? I
didn't mind it because of the typeof match, and I actually was like
at first, like they forget it, And then after a while it went
on twice and ended, and Iwas like, you know what, I
wouldn't have mind it, Like,you know, what should have happened.
Jericho should have went like, hey, cut off that shit, and then
they played his music for the nextlike ten minutes or something like that,

(26:37):
and like, I wouldn't have mindjust chaos with music playing. It's like
a bar fight. Why not?Actually I didn't mind it, and I
think they could. Actually it couldIt could have worked if they could have
played the whole time. They couldhave made it funny too. Jericho could
have switched the song over to histrack or something. I found like the
match got immediately better once that musicstopped. Though maybe it was weird.
The camerangles were all over the place. Something was so busy. Something times

(27:00):
you would miss really important things becausethey would go back into the ring because
the match obviously had to be endin the ring. And I think there's
one point where somebody was gonna beput through something, There's gonna be a
big spot happening, and then therewas action in the ring where there was
gonna be a potential pinfall, Sothey switchedly went over there, and you
missed it. I don't even knowwhy Brian Danielson or Daniel Bryan. I'm
sorry, I'm gonna keep calling himthat. Um, I don't even know

(27:21):
why he was bleeding. They didn'tThey didn't even show how he started bleeding.
He was just bleeding. So ohyeah. And then Menard, the
super cocaine dude, Like I sortof got that Menard guy. Always seems
like he's like tweaked a guys.Yeah, you know, like the guy
he just had so much blood pouringout of him, and then you saw
this weekend Dynamite, he had likestitches here, stitches here, stitches here,

(27:45):
stitches here, like crazy. Thatguy looks like he's just like,
I'm gonna ride Chris Jericho's coat tailsas hard as I can while I'm here.
And he's always chewing gum, andhe always looks like he's coked up,
and he has this little bit ofmiss a perfect look to him as
well, had Kurt heading Luck.Yeah, yeah, yeah, but I
like him actually, out of allthe guys in there, I like him
the most, probably out of outsideof Jericho Haggar. I could take him

(28:08):
or leave him. At the otherguys, I feel like Jericho is just
like bringing them to kind of tryto put put them over um. But
one of the most talking about thingsin that match wasn't the blood, wasn't
the guts all that stuff. Mindyou, that Eddie Kingston at the end
coming out with the gasoling was awesome. That's very good. One of the
biggest things talked about was Jericho's baldspot. Oh, it was very bad,

(28:33):
and he had the gasoline put onhim and all that stuff, and
it was made even worse. AndI'm like, why did he do that?
Greed to do that because it's gonnamake it look worse. So now
on Dynamite this past week, he'sfeuding with um, this is Santino or
Ortiz. Yeah, well I thinkit's they're gonna do a hair versus hair
match. So I think Jericho realized, dude, it's time too, It's
time to do it. No way, he does not need Javis head anytime

(28:56):
soon. So I agree with you. I think like as long as he
like look like Michael said the samething, right, as long as he
kept that hair pulled back to hidethat bald spot a little bit, and
then eventually it was you couldn't doit anymore because Michael's got really bad,
but Jericho can still do it.The thing about this match was like there
was so much blood and sweat andliquid on his head, right, so
it really exposed him. Um,but maybe Jericho's looking to reinvent himself and

(29:22):
bald Jericho wouldn't work. It wouldn'twork. You say that, short hair
Jericho, you say that, yousay that, but I bet you Jericho
could make himself The only thing aboutJericho is like he's his eyes are so
red that he's gonna look like shit. With a bald head, he's gonna
look shit. It was an idiot. Yeah, well I don't know,
it's gonna look like a terrible fuckingidiot. At least he lost weight.

(29:42):
If he was fat and bald,and it would be there's no way he's
getting his haircut. There's no way. There's no way. Well, the
guy just uh kind of strand Isaw it. Yeah, well we'll see
that. He probably pulled a plug. Yeah I really didn't. I mean,
the first seminence of that match,I was it wasn't even entertaining because

(30:04):
it was so chaotic. You couldn'tthe cameras couldn't keep keep up with them.
But then as soon as it gotkind of brought back to the ring,
it got really really fucking good.Daniel Brien freaking out when he got
gas put on him and beating uphis own team was really good. The
ending was a little shit. Ithought, I really wanted to see a
little bit more. I wanted tosee something a little bit bigger. But

(30:26):
it was a good shit show.Yeah, that's the guy who was with
Moxley and Devil Brian and the littlefight Club, like they pushed him to
the moon for like two or threeweeks, and all of a sudden he
disappeared. I don't know. Ilike how Roberts sort of justin Roberts said,
oh, this is gonna be ashit show. That's pretty good.

(30:49):
Oh we got the Hardy boys inthe young Bucks. What do you think
of that? I thought it wasokay, It's okay. I mean,
this is what drives me a littlebit crazy. Jeff hard he acts like
that in WWE's on drugs. JeffHardy acts like that, ne w,
he's banged up. That kind ofgets me a little bit fucking bummed out.
He also took off through the crowdin the end. Again, Yeah,
but I think that was kind.I think that was some fun.

(31:11):
But apparently, like people were saying, like, Matt went on social media
made sure everybody knew he had abroken foot. So but apparently people are
also worried about him as well.But I don't know. Matt Hardy was
amazing in that match. Matt Hardyis good. He's a good workhorse.
He's got a ship together and heoften has to carry Jeff Hardy through matches
apparently, so it is what itis. But considering it was okay,

(31:33):
I'm glad that Young Bucks went over, but I don't think this is one
and done. I think this isgonna go to like a TLC match or
something. Oh, I would bevery much down for this, very very
much down for this. I thinkthe Young Bucks are getting better. I
like that they actually like sat outfor a while. Yeah, I mean
I think some of it because they'rebanged up, and they talked about being
banged up, but like letting othertag teams focus on doing their thing and

(31:56):
like them coming in and like whenthey do something, it means more.
And I like this because it wasless like a crazy young Buck spot fest
because you knew, like are thehard He's gonna be able to keep up
with the Young Bucks. So theYoung Bucks kind of still did that high
flying stuff, but toned it downquite a bit. So I also will
give Brandon Cutler points for dressing uplike Lida, Brandon Cutler was really good

(32:17):
in that match. I thought hisbumps were fucking legit. They looked absolutely
real. Jay Cargill and Janet Jaylike, for me, I was like,
why Anna Jay. I thought theypicked people based on points and like
rankings and stuff like Anna Day wasvery random, and Jade herself is very
green, but she can have avery good match if she's in there with

(32:37):
the right person. But having somebodywho's not great with somebody who is green,
like, I don't know, itwas a very clunky match. I
guess you could say for the mostbad match, probably the worst one on
the card. But I still thinkJade's awesome. It's cool to see Athena
show up and then you have ChrisStatlander come into the ring. Big pop

(32:59):
for her, So I think alot of fans or behind Chris Statlander.
I like her a lot too,a lot more serious. Yeah, I
like her too. The House ofBlack versus deat Triangle was a great match.
I thought, Oh, that matchwas stupid good. Yep, that
was stupid good. Yeah. There'sone match where he did Brody King did
like this Rakichi Rikichi driver to likeRay Phoenix and like spiked him, tombstoned

(33:20):
him. Oh killed him. Yeah, it looked like he killed Yeah,
Like Buddy Murphy picks him up inhis suplex and just throws him at freaking
yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. When I'm like casually watching with my
wife and do something, I'm like, oh yeah, yeah, and then
I'm like, oh shit, I'mjust like, oh my god, oh
my god, you know, LikeI mean, it was it was an
absolute spot fest. But I don'tmind one of those every pay per view.
Yeah, and this is the kindof match where you're going to see

(33:42):
that you look all the participants init, right, So, like,
like can Ray Phoenix and and andPentagon Junior being a bad match? Like
is it possible? I don't evenknow. Man like to me do the
greatest tag team of all time entertainmentwise? Entertainment Well, I don't care
about stories. These motherfuckers blow mymind. And Pentagon doesn't even look like
he's in good shape. No,I know, right, he looks like

(34:06):
Conan almost. Yeah. Yeah,he's got the coolest mask. Man always
has the coolest gear. Yeah,for sure, for sure, go ahead.
I was gonna say, I collectfigures um and like I've been hesitant
to buy Ray Fin Phoenix and anduh Penta, but like Penta's figures are

(34:27):
so nice. He's kind of alwayskinds of different gear on and they look
really nice. So maybe I'll pickone up. I will say this though,
my match of the night, OhI bet you it's the same as
mine. I don't know my matchin the night honestly, and I think
it should have been the the finalsof the Owen Heart was Kylo'reiley and yeah,

(34:50):
that's my match in the night too. Yeah, because Leys such a
good match. I don't know ifhe hates Derby House, but he kicked
his ship at kneed of the facein the beginning, and the knee of
the face was nice. And thefact that Darby like was spitting up his
blood like he was just like,let's go, dude. The transitions and
stiffness of them, the armbars,I mean, it was a clinic.

(35:16):
It was absolutely a devastating match.Every punch, every kick. It there.
You know when we saw a RamoCeio and Eddie Guerre just seamlessly fight
on nitro at that time, likethat classic match. To me, this
was like Derby should have died goingout that ring and he was fine.

(35:38):
And somehow it looked like he kickedthe guy in the face on purpose,
like it just they couldn't do wrong. It was a beautiful fucking match,
and I can't I couldn't believe KyloRiley went over. Dude, he was
the heel in the match and hewent over like clean and lean. Yeah,
we saw Derby he's been he's beeneating some pins lately. So well,
did did fish come out? Uh? Or did fish come out with

(36:01):
Samoa Joe and Adam Cooley? Iknow, I know somebody came out during
the Samoa match, I think andDarby might have been clean. All I
know is that it was the stiffestmatchup scene in a really long time.
Kyle O'Reilly literally came in, tookcare of business and fucking left and he

(36:22):
seemed to have a chip on hisshoulder. I don't know what it was
for, but I loved it.Carlo Rowley's great, Like honestly, I
would have had him win the tournamentactually to be should have won that tournament.
Yeah, he's so good. Heis Canadian too, isn't he?
Yeah, Vancouver BC. A littlebit of a dad bod. I think

(36:42):
he when he first came in,he kind of let himself go a little
bit fine by me. It suitshim. Yeah, yeah, I mean
he's somebody we talked earlier before we'rein the show about teeth I don't know
why we were talking about it,why we were talking about teeth. We
were talking about romans, we're talkingabout we're talking about stranger things. But
why did I about teeth? Becauseyeah, because the kid doesn't have teeth,
right, and that we're talking aboutimplants can actually look really nice these

(37:05):
days, nicer than regular teeth,and we're talking about how people could benefit
from getting those fake teeth. Havingthe snaggle teeth. Ruby Riot we talked
about as well too. Her lowerteeth are snaggly. I would say,
Kyle Riley, he looks like,I mean, this is I mean,
whatever fucked everybody? Uh, helooks like a methodic teeth. He's like
me thief, fine by me.He's cool. Kyle Man. Kyle Riley

(37:29):
is one of these guys that justshouldn't be a likable guy, and he's
extremely likable. No, because he'sso fucking good in the ring too.
He's so fucking good in the ring. Yeah, and he's like, that's
sweep man. Yeah, oh hedoes. Yeah, he does steeve so
all the little things that he does, like there's not a lot of people

(37:49):
out there. He wrestles a stylethat he does even though it's not an
uncommon style, it's just he's almostmade his own style out of it.
Yeah, and he's got this likeyou know, you see it with um
Why can't I remember her name?Who do I love? From NXT?
The Asian chick Yo Shari? Yeah, you see Eo Sharai. You see

(38:13):
Bret Hart and I gotta put KylerRolly in there. They just have this
weird center of bravity where they getsucked to the ground faster than other people.
And I don't know how they doit, but it just works,
man, It just he just heIt was perfection. That sweep was so
fucking nice. Man. So wetalk about the the Owen Heart Tournament.

(38:37):
Adam Cole beat Samoa Joe match wasso so for me. It's trash.
Yeah, Adam Cole beating Samoa Joe. I would love to see Samoa Joe
win this. But I get Iget, I get that he didn't need
to win it. I think,yeah, that's it, right, Britt
Baker Ruby, soho take it orleave it? I guess if Britt Baker
is not going to be involved inthe title picture, give her this,

(38:58):
you know, championship that you canwalk around with her and Cole Um and
look we had oh yeah American TopTown, Ethan Page, Scorpio, sky
Page, Van Zand and with DanLambert, Frankie Kazarian, Sammy Gavara and
take Conte. What a shit showover match. But it was entertaining it.
It was entertaining. I don't knowwhat you have to do. If
you can do like a springboard toprope cutter and get a one count,

(39:22):
I don't know what you have todo. That's the only thing that kind
of makes right. Yeah. Iloved Tay getting the super kick. Um,
she got smoked. I I hate, uh, these this couple,
but that's exactly what they're trying todo, so they succeeded. Um.
I don't know what though, Ihate them, but at the same time
I think I think, honestly,this is gonna sound bad and pretty chauvinistic.

(39:47):
I don't think it's the best thingfor Sammy Vara. No, And
you know eventually they're gonna break up, right, Like they're not gonna be
They're not gonna be together. Imean, I don't want to pass judgment,
but most of the time these kindof relationships don't work. Yeah,
they're in the honeymoon phase. Andlook, this is weird, Like I
don't know how to describe this becauseI thought I'm not talking about this one
time before. But like it's gonnabe really hard to describe and convince.

(40:10):
But te Kante is hot, right, like, no, no question about
it. But if you isolate herface and look at her face and her
eyes, like I know exactly whatshe's gonna look like when she's older,
which is old. Yeah, andit's I've seen the face before and like
it's not attractive. And she's she'shas very thin eyelashes as well too,

(40:30):
so like this guy, Yeah,I don't know. I'm just like I
wouldn't I would invest in her,That's all I'm saying. And I and
I don't think Sammy give varies either, but like anyways, anyways, moving
on, Um, yeah, Idon't know. Sam was all right,

(40:52):
okay, right, Um, Imean it was entertaining. It was sid
but it was pretty entertaining. Alot of people were saying thunder Rosa and
Serena Deep could be considered the matchof the night, and like, honestly,
I never got into that one.I don't get the hype on thunder

(41:14):
Rosa I just she wasn't even onDynamite this week, so it's I feel
bad for the woman she finally was. Honestly, she is your perfect example.
We talk about so much the journeymanand the journey woman. Thunder Rosa
is a great journey woman. Butshe has a title and maybe just because
of the book and they've had herin but like ever since she won the
title, she's been lackluster, LikeJay Cargyle is the real cha. Yeah,

(41:35):
Jake Cargile is the real champion.To be honest with you, and
it's funny. It's a great pointto make m Serena deep as well.
Soona Deeves looked at as like thering general. She has so much experience.
She's the person you want to getthe range she did. She's great,
so Je Deeves great. Um,I would say her ring where her
mic work is not great considering Iremember when I heard talking to Mike.
I'm like a woman who's regarded aslike one of the best of all time

(41:59):
and her work as poopy. Howis she going to teach you to be
good on the mic? Maybe she'smore about teaching you how to be good
in the ring. But either waythunder Rosa beating her, you know that
definitely is you know, she canadd that to resume the fact that she
beats Serena deeb. I just hopeshe gets a good program moving out of
this, and I hope her nextprogram isn't the last one. They really
should be booking her a lot betterbecause I do like thunder Rosa. I

(42:22):
don't think it has anything to dowith her wrestling ability or capabilities. Um,
I just think that they have ahard time booking the women. Surprise,
guys, surprise, it happens tothe companies. You know. It
was the best women's match on thecard, though, like like as far
as it goes, yea for sure. Like I'm sorry, man, WWE
women's wrestling is the benchmark, likeit just is right now for the for

(42:42):
the big promotions. I'm not talkingabout stuff I can't watch or that plays
at three in the morning and fuckingJapan. But I will say this,
Jade Cargill and Anna j was anaw women's match. Um Britt Baker and
and Ruby Oh, I mean,look at the shrup shooter, but not

(43:06):
just that it was kind of clunky. It was clunky and then Serena D.
It wasn't a great match, itwasn't an overly entertaining match Serena D
and thunder Rosa, but it hadreally good flow and it seemed like,
Yeah, these guys are professionals,so I'll give it that. Yeah,
and we got the pay per viewcap it off. CM Punk winning the
A to W World Championship ends upbeating Hangman Page. Hangman Page decides not

(43:30):
the cheat, tries to do itclean, goes to sleep. Punk wins
the title, gets very emotional,holds a belt up. FTR comes out.
They celebrate. Great moment. Youknow, this is the peak of
CM Punk's return. He's back,He's won that championship. He's going to
have a run during the summer.Everybody's very excited. Spunk seems to be

(43:52):
very excited himself. He saw emotional. He got so interested to see where
do we go from here? Andwho is going to be punks for challenger.
I don't know, honestly, somehowI care more about where a hangman's
gonna go. I feel like ahangman. And and and he supposed to

(44:12):
fight Okata at the Forbidden Door.By the way, Wow, yeah,
he gets Ocatta Wow. Yeah,that's big. That's that's very big.
Apparently it was some sort of homageto Roddy Piper and Bret Hart match with
the hole looking at the belt andnot using it and then losing. Maybe,
but I don't know. I don'tIt doesn't ring a bell for me.

(44:34):
And then even Bully said he's like, somehow, somehow Hangman got even
more over from losing this match.I think he got over. I think,
like, honestly, I mean,he was over, but I think
now he'll be next level. Whodoes that though, Who's like, you
know what, I'm going to dothe right thing and then loses, like
that's very unique, and I think, yes, I think the fact that
he did that helps him out somuch moving forward. There's something about it

(44:59):
that's good. I don't know,hang Man. I mean, it was
a six month run. He wasfine, That's all I could say.
He was the first real a Wchampion in my opinion, though he's the
first non WW guys. Yeah,I guess. So now it's with another
day. Oh no, sorry,Kenny Omega? Can you Omega? Right?

(45:21):
Yeah? Can you? Omega's run? Wasn't that great though? I
wanted to see I want to seelike a good face one where he's like
a fighting champion. Right, Idon't mind it was a heel either.
Eventually like understood it and whatever itwas, it was okay. But like
when I first got introduced to KenyOmega, watching him like fight is hard
out yeah, like New Japan,and I want to see more matches like
that. Maybe he can't anymore,maybe he's banged up and stuff. I

(45:44):
don't know. I still think hecan, but um, yeah, I
don't know. We'll have to see. I think his injury recover his injury.
His recovery's going a bit slow,so it might be a while till
be seeing Omega. Yeah, sowho's gonna fight Punk first? Then?
I don't know. I mean Ithought with they're making jokes on Busted Open
about it being Billy gunn right,I don't know why. Oh, it's

(46:07):
because a caller called in and suggestthat, right, yeah, you're so
stupid. But then they wrestled thegun Club this past week in Dynamite,
Right, I was like, whoknows, Maybe they will do and that
could be an easy like championship matchwhere he wins and your tains. Um,
so maybe that's the direction they're going. But also with MGF cutting that
promo this past week and then uh, you know cmpunk coming out during commercial

(46:29):
break, Like is it going tobe cmpunk? They really really gonna do?
John cncmpunk with the reverse roles here, I want to ask you,
because I've been talking a lot withthe whole MGF thing his contract, Like
what do you think do you thinkit's a work? Do you think how
much of it does work? Doyou think that he's justified and wanting more
money because a lot of people aresaying, oh, look man, like
you signed the dotted line you signedon day one, Like yeah, I

(46:51):
mean you're making one hundred thousand dollarsa year and other people are making several
hundred thousand dollars a year. Butyou signed that contract and you know,
keep you know, grinding it out, and then in twenty twenty four you'll
get your just deserves when you signyour new contract. Is that what he's
making? One hundred k? SoI don't know. I'm not going to
come out and say how much he'smaking. That sucks. Well, it's

(47:14):
funny because like a hundred k isnice, But I mean, apparently apparently
some of the rustlers are making evenless. Apparently the initial ones that signed
because they wanted to be part ofsomething, and I think m JF was
on a higher scale. And whenI say one hundred thousand dollars, what
I heard that some of the talentwe're making was less. So I'm rolling
it up to one hundred thousand,and it could be more. It could
be one twenty, could be onefifty two hundred. But they make a

(47:35):
lot of money also from autograph signings, merchandise and all that stuff too,
So that's not including that, right, But it's nowhere any of the money
Adam Cole's making. It's nowhere nearthe money that you know Big Show might
make coming in or Christian well ofcourse Cempunk Moxley. Right. So again,
like we see the people coming inand you have this new thing you're
building up where a big reason whyCody left was because he wanted an alternative,

(48:00):
And now what's it turning into.It's turning into like a lot of
WW it's turning into WW. RightLike in a sense, I like it.
It's exciting for me, but atthe same time, for the superstars
that are there, they're getting pushedaside Chris Statlander was primed to be champion,
had a knee injury, and willshe ever get that chance again?
I don't know. Yeah, ISho'll get that chance again. I hope
so because the fans. I mean, look, I said it a few

(48:22):
weeks ago. AW has an expirationdate. Man, I don't care what
anybody says. It's got an expirationdate. I mean, TNT or impact,
whatever you want to call it isstill around. But like I think
you have to watch it on Twitch. So to me, it's non existent.
ROH is dead. Um what elseis there? Well, ROH will

(48:46):
be back. I think Tony Cohnjust announced they're going to do a pay
per view this summer. But yes, effectively it is. Yeah, it's
just gonna be AW fighting ROH titleholders. He's trying to get separate,
right, So we'll see all thatcan that can sound for. But look,
I'm gonna say to your point thatyou raised a good point. Remember
when daniel'brien came in the huge fuckingpop, Adam Cole came out and Daniel

(49:06):
Brian came out the same night thatwas magic Electric, such a great night
it was. Wasn't that the nightthat see him Punk debuted two more the
first I don't I think it.I don't think he debuted it at that
match he debuted on the dynamite.He debuted on a dynamite. Oh,
you're right, But regardless, itwas two huge debuts. Adam Cole coming
over, Daniel Brian coming over rightafter it was spectacular. Daniel Bryant coming

(49:34):
out cutting heel promos like that,he what is what are they doing with
Daniel Brian? Like, I feelI almost feel like they kind of squandered
him because they had this momentum goingwith him and then they paired him with
Moxley in this like club with Regaland while it's you know, it's nice
to see them going out there andbeing aggressive and fighting, like Daniel Bryan

(49:57):
should have challenged Hangman Page, youknow, or like I feel like Daniel
Bryan should been putting that title picture. Daniel Brian did it. Well,
Yeah, I get you're yeah,you're right, You're you're right. Sorry,
but I feel like he could beplaying a more main event role and
yeah, now he's taking a stepstep on the stack on the side,
he's helping put people over and really, honestly, like they killed the momentum
that he had going, I feelat least a little bit. I mean

(50:22):
like, I'm going to enjoy theride that aw is and I think that's
exactly what it is. Is ita ride? Uh, it's a it's
a billionaire. Um, it's abillionaire playing here. It's awesome. Uh
well, I'm JF said it perfectly. He's a fucking mark. Yes,

(50:45):
he's got a lot of money.And he decides, you know what,
I want to buy this Rustore.I want to buy this Rustlore. I
want to buy this I want tobuy that wrestler. I mean, Daniel
Bryan. I think I even textedyou at the beginning of that match.
I was like, Daniel must hatethis. But then by the end of
it, I was like, yoh, I kind of like Daniel in this
role a little bit, you know, like when he said let's fucking go

(51:06):
or I'm gonna fucking kill you whateverhe said. I mean, that was
cool. Daniel's time will come.Man, We're gonna get a Daniel and
Punk fight. I think, yeah, But then again, that's that's a
ww feud, I know. Buthonestly, outside of FJF, who isn't
And what's the big tag team thateverybody loves right now, Keithley in Strickland.

(51:27):
It's like, yeah, but Keithleyin Strickland, I don't feel like
her. WW guys, Everyoneland's KylaRidley people, I know Joe you know
what, like the Hardy Boys.Yeah, but look, there is an
argument to be made that Adam Colewas never on main roster. There is
an argument to make Kyle and Rileywas never on main roster. There,

(51:49):
I would still say there's enough toconsider them. WW. Guys. They
are literally being called the Undisputed Elite, and they have theme music that is
almost identical to the undispute Like I'venever seen theme music. It's almost like
those said, Okay, we're gonnagive you theme music whoever's creating it,
taking consideration the Indisputed era and tryto match the same sound, and they
did, Like it's the same way. I'm pretty sure is it? I

(52:12):
don't know, but there's no coincidencethere, like like they're trying to recreate
it. Okay, but what wasAdam Cole's music before? Didn't he have
boom in it too? He's alwayshe's always done the boom. Yeah,
he's always in the Boom. He'sin the Adam Cole Bay Bay, but
they are trying to bring over theundisputed era like over Robby Fish, rod
Ricks Strong has probably he asked forhis release as well to rod Rick Strong,
so I would he did. Butnow they're using him more on TV,

(52:36):
so maybe that they've decided like,let's use you a little bit more
so like Adam Cole. To me, honestly, while his stint and NXT
was was phenomenal, I still alwayskind of see him as an Roah guy
and he made the best move forhimself though like he he did, but

(52:57):
like he was one of those guysthat when I was watching a lot of
Beanie Lane stuff, you know,I don't know, I never really saw
him so much of a w Wguy more than he still seemed like an
indie guy Kylo Riley. I seeMoore is a WW guy than that.
I'm cool, But I mean,really there's nobody outside of WW guys to
face ce him punk. I meanI was just about to say, what

(53:19):
about fucking Mero, But then Mirois a w W guy too. He
showed up last night on Dynamite tobeat Johnny elite U Omega coming back for
punk if he comes back eventually,Um, there's no one else really,
They'll have Lance Archer or Nyla Rose. They're always like the first people that

(53:43):
that towns the title. It's likethat's your gatekeeper, your first one.
Nyla Rose for the women. Wheneverthe women in the championship, the first
person they defend against is always NeilaRose. And for the men, very
often it's Lance Archer. Um tryingto think, will there is man?
I mean, he could put award blow there, but he's a phase,

(54:06):
so I don't think that what areyou gonna put war World's gonna go
against another behemoth? I guess fora bit, Adam Cole. He talked
about challenging for the title, soyou could put Adam Cole in there,
but Adam Cole obviously won his littleOwen heartbelt and had his chance. Um,
I think Adam Cole would be apretty good first. Yeah, but
again he was just in that titlepicture. Cole was oh yeah, yeah,

(54:28):
yeah. Cole took on a Hangmanpage like twice. But the title.
Fuck, we're running out of guys. We are running out of guys.
But don't worry, they'll have plenty, or they'll sign fifty of them.
I mean, who who, There'snobody left. Ray bray Wyatt's the
only one bray Wyatt is. Buthe's dropping hints now unless he picks choose
your own narrative whatever that like littlelittle thing is. Yeah, but he

(54:50):
say he's coming back soon, sowe'll see what happens. And I'm pretty
sure he would love Tony Con wouldlove to have that in his back eventually.
I mean he got to me,he already has. I mean really,
the big surprise this was Athena whogives a shit got Kyrie saying,
I know they've always won Kyrie sayingover in a W and that would be

(55:13):
a nice one to bring over.That would be like your proper Riho.
Rio was Riho was their poor man'sKyrie is saying because Omega said, if
I'm starting to the vision first person, I wanted Kyrie saying, but they
couldn't get Kyrie. Yeah, whathappened? You know? I started thinking
about it a W and I waslike, what happened to the they were
supposed to do something with like aChinese wrestling federation. Then there was that

(55:35):
dude who fought he was like theAsian John Cena. He fought Kenny Omega
on one of the first you knowwhat I'm talking about. Yeah, I
don't know his name. I thinkhis name was Sena. It was eh,
I don't know. You know whoI'm talking about, though, I
mean I remember him, but Idon't know his name. I'm pretty sure
his name is Sena or Sheena orGina or Sina or Vena something like that.

(56:00):
And he was really good. Andthen like there was this whole like
we're gonna bring you stuff you haven'tseen before. And then I mean,
I get it. You can't notsign Adam Cole and Daniel Bryan and see
him punk. Yeah, but likewhere is everybody from? I know,

(56:22):
yeah, it's interesting. It's aride, like you said, like it's
it's a ride. I'm enjoying it. I like the show. They put
on a good wrestling. Honestly,I won't watch. I do not watch.
I'll leave Ron every week for threehours. I've gotten the habit of
actually watching Dynamite every week. Thoseare my two shows I always want to
watch every week. SmackDown I tryto put on if I have time,
But Friday, you know, that'stough. I think I know where you're

(56:45):
going. I don't watch that nextanymore. Oh, I think you can
say I'll never watch Rampage because I'llnever watch No, I don't watch Rampage
eat. I always read the spoilersbecause they're they're recorded right after aw Dynamite.
UM, so I'm always interested inthat regard. If I see something
cool in this boilers, I'll tunein. But usually Friday, like after
SmackDown's over, I'm playing video gamesor something. So but yeah, NXT,

(57:07):
Like I think my NXT is likeI really don't like the UM.
I guess the weekly fluff that theygive you, like the pant the skits,
I guess skits. I guess thisway to put it um. But
the matches are always really good.They still have that NXT quality matchups,
Like, they still are really good. Like I think I watched like,

(57:27):
what are two matches this past week? Roderick Strong another one right, rodri
Strung always puts on great matches.Yeah, yeah, it was really good.
And then the Creed Brothers. Sowhen I told you about, uh,
we have NXT in your house thisweekend, Okay, oh it's in
your house. Yeah, it's inyour house. Well, they don't call
them takeovers anymore. They're called likein your houses now in takeovers, and

(57:50):
they're trying to get away from likethe old NXT verbiage. So there's two
matches on the card. Uh,well, we do have like we got
Tony D'Angelo, which is like thelittle Mafia against Legato Delfantasma, which is
the you know him, the goldMaster, right, Yeah, fantastic.
That match is probably gonna be prettygood. Mandy Rose is defending her championship

(58:12):
against Wendy Chow, who's the girlwho falls asleep and the sleeper all the
time. So for me, it'slike it's been funny. I like it,
but I'm like, are you kiddingme? You have this girl and
like a onesie sleeper defend challenging forthe championship, Mandy Rose the champion.
Oh my god, we've gone up. We've come a long way, you
know, we've fallen from grace here. I have no idea where Eo Sharai

(58:32):
is either, Like I'm worried she'sstill there. She's still an NXT,
but I have no idea where sheis. Is she the last black gold?
Um? It's yeah, I meanCameron Grimes, I guess is debatable
because he's yeah, but he's barelyBlack and Gold came in. He came
in during Black and Gold, soyeah, but he came into the tail

(58:53):
end. But yeah, I mean, I guess you're right. But two
matches that I think are gonna begreat Cameron grind versus Carmelo Carmelo Hayes,
It's gonna be really good. Butthe one I want you to watch,
okay, and I would like youto if you can find some time to
tune in. There's a team calledPretty Deadly okay, and they're essentially like

(59:13):
you look at them and they looklike Brazongo more or less. They're two
guys that dress fabulous. I guessyou could say they're long hair. They
have like high cut, like littlebelly shirts, you know, so you
know, a little bit on thefife side. But they're good wrestlers against
the Creed Brothers for the tag teamtitles. At the Creed Brothers lose,

(59:35):
they have to leave the Diamond mind. Roderick Strong said, you're out if
you lose, you know, whenbringing back the tag team titles. This
is the match I would like youto watch, just because The Creed Brothers
are two guys who don't look likewrestlers, two guys that would join like
backyard wrestling, But they're fucking goodman. They're fun to watch. They're
a really good team. I havenot watched one episode of NXT two point

(59:57):
oh and I'm not watched an NSTPperview since, and not even on purpose.
It's just it's like NXT doesn't exist. It is like that, and
I'm very sad. My heart isstill a bit broken over the fact that
we lost Golden Black. Um.I don't really like a lot of the
like I said, the skits andthe weekly episodic kind of like programming that

(01:00:21):
you get that the characters are alittle bit over the top, but it
is fun and the matches still havethat quality though. I will say,
you'll watch it and be like,it still has that NXT like excitement to
it. Is Sean Michael still inthere? Yeah, I haven't heard him
being fired, So that makes sensethen, because like Tamaso Champa I heard

(01:00:42):
on Busted Open, didn't doesn't evenget an entrance to league. He's the
guy waiting in the ring. Yeah, I mean Tamaso Champa. I mean
he'll he'll get future endeavored. Atsome point, I literally was up stage
major w W pay per views onSaturday nights when an next takeover was in

(01:01:04):
down Yep, you see Gargano.He was in the being the Elite videos.
Was yeah, I don't I don'tlike that guy, or it was
like no, or it was Sammy'sv log. It was Sammy's v log,
I think, and him and takeKanti was like Johnny, hey,
somebody's missing. Who is it?And he's like, oh, I know
who's missing. And then like Ithink Brennan Cutler showed up or somebody showed

(01:01:25):
up. That Lake was annoying,But I don't know. I mean again,
I think Gargano will be stupid notto go to AW, make a
quick buck over there, and theneasily come back to W because like he's
a kind of guy. It's like, I don't know if he's gonna be
able to do main roster ever,he's too tiny. So I feel like,
honestly, milk your career, goto a W have a run over
there, make some money maybe whenthe TNT title, and then when all

(01:01:50):
said is done, you could alleasily come back to w W n XT
maybe have a run on the mainroster, like he's a kind of guy
where it works in his favor todo an aw run. Final thought on
Doublin or nothing, because I dowant to talk about Sasha Banks. Yes,
yeah, um. The biggest pissoff of the night and I'm sure

(01:02:14):
you noticed this too when Adam Colecame out to get his trophy is stupid
knee. I thought of you.I was like, why would you not?
Like, how are you walking aroundback there with your knee? Pat?
Why would you think that? Whydid you get Listen, I'm a
short guy too. Okay, it'snot helping Bud. Somebody backstage must have

(01:02:35):
said, Adam, what the fuck? Man? Like somehow or no one's
saying anything somehow. Adam Cole's kneeis like you know when like really Christian
people get like offended by a nippleslip. I'm offended by Adam coles knee.
I don't like you. There's somethingabout it when he pulls that off,
because, like you know, RickFlair used to do it, Charlotte

(01:02:58):
Flair does it, I'm all rightwith it. When Adam Cole does it,
I don't know what it is.And his knees are like, I
think it's because he's already pretty scrawny, and you think he couldn't look any
scrawny air, But then he bepadoff and he looks even scrawny air,
and you're like, boh. Iwould like him to shut the haters.
He'd be like fuck this and workhis ass off for like the next eight
months and come back like super Jackand be like, all right, fair

(01:03:22):
enough, Adam Cole. You putin the work. Adam Cole is gonna
look like a shriveled up piece ofshit soon. Honestly, his body's like
like I don't like to shoot onguys for this kind of stuff. It's
just funny. Right now. He'sgonna be bald for sure, and he's
just hanging everywhere. It's weird.He's a week or week basis. I've

(01:03:42):
been like, Wow, he's he'sworked out this week, he's putting in
the work, and then the nextweek, oh, it's all gone.
Yeah, But you're right about thehair. I don't know about his hair,
but like you can see, likeI tell you, man seth Rawlins
hairlines going and Drew McIntire's hairlines going. Drew's been going for a while.
Yeah, yeah, so and Drew'sthe only guy, Duke. I don't
think he can pull off the shavedhead, So I don't know it's gonna

(01:04:03):
happen with him. But I don'tknow. Man, it's tough, you
know, it was, you know, it was held up really well deep
deep Ambrose, man, Deean Ambrosewas bad for so long, and now
it's like he just can't get anyworse. So it's just like, I
know, but somehow, somehow looksbad. I think it was also because
its head was so swollen before fromthe drinking. Now it's a little bit

(01:04:26):
smaller, so it's more hair tocover. Yeah, and then you got
Daniel Brinen's like, I ain't neverlose such nice hair. That's the hair.
I don't want it. I know, dude, he's got everything that
I want. Yeah, breathe alittle short, little short, but whatever,
I'll trade it in. Man,I don't give it a shit.
Man. It's probably taller than youanyways. Right now, I don't know
if he's taller than me. Idon't know. All right, So before

(01:04:47):
we get into Sasha and Naomi,let's take a quick break. Yeah,
fuck, holy shit, it's alreadyeight thirty. Okay, well we got
do pictions too. Okay, gonnahave to go through predictions relatively quickly them.
Okay, you want to take we'lltake a break. We'll come back.

(01:05:28):
It's the crew with a year thatyou're loving to hate. If you're
fucking with the team, you catchyour boots to the face. Rebound from
the boot, I hit the Irishwhip. Don't be mad because we know
your podcasts ain't ship. Stop hating, motherfucker. You know either Man or
Jay gonna hit you that ring signedran and him too hard hit his rapping
montree. Y'all godpotters of the crew, making sure we ball. If you

(01:05:48):
still want to hate, it's nosafety your you might get me down the
fucking man. Listen to the wholeteam across the body your work. It'll
make you realize that you should havebeen personal him me, I cast k
us everywhere that I go eighty twoand nope, Less got me ready to
throw. Don't step to the MichaelLess you want that smoke FPC. The
whole team is like a knife toget thrown again. I'm a boss,

(01:06:24):
I'm a boss. I'm gonna takemy ball and go home, listen.
I I'm okay with it, right, I'm okay with it. But they
they did they didn't. Fucking Idon't know. It's a tough call because,

(01:06:45):
like WWE was pretty like in yourface about it. Yeah, but
I think at the same time itwas like, all right, you gonna
do it again, girl, You'regonna do it again. If you walk
out again, we're not gonna letyou have that freedom of last time.
I'm coming back and telling your ownlittle story and twisting it and saying I
didn't cry. I did this,you know, and fair enough. And
I respect Sasha for standing up forwhat she believes in. There is that

(01:07:11):
argument of like, well, look, you sign a contract. If they
tell you to go out there anddo it, you know you can say
I don't want to do it,but you gotta go out there and do
it. You can't just walk out. Actors cannot just walk out on the
set right like they are literally inreach of contract. They are no longer
being paid. The WWE can holdlegal repercussions against them. You know what,
Sasha decides it is something a hillthat she wants to die on,

(01:07:32):
and that's fine. She doesn't needa WWE. She has so many projects
going on. She's now in theStar Wars universe. She could be set
for life. She's very talented.She'll be fine. Naomi, E girl,
don't know unless it's a time foryou to take time off, start
a family and then maybe let thingsblow over and come back in a year
or two. That's fine, Butis it really the hill you want to

(01:07:53):
die on? And then you findout more about it and it's like,
okay, Well, they thought thatit was gonna be a tag team time
idle story being driven forward. They'regonna be facing Nicki and dow Drop,
but all of a sudden, no, girls, you're gonna be in a
six fatal six way or whatever itwas. Whoever gets the first pin goes
on to face Bianca and guess what, girls, Naomi's gonna win. So
Naomi's gonna headline the next paper reviewagainst Bianca. Belair was going to happen.

(01:08:16):
Yes, that's what was gonna happen. Naomi was gonna win. Seems
like she dragged this girl through themUK and then Sasha, Sasha was scheduled
to go up against Ronda Rousi.All of you were asking, why is
Ronda feuding with Raquel Gonzalez or RaquelRodriguez now because she was supposed to be
feuding with Sash, right, yeah, I don't. I think it's ridiculous.
Why I don't know, and nowshe's super nice and everything. It's

(01:08:38):
just like it's ridiculous. So anyways, Naomi was gonna face Bianca Blair Foot
Championship at a pay per view,and Sasha was gonna face Ronda, So
they were scheduled to be Okay,you're a taking champions, but we'll put
it on pause for now. You'regonna face the champions at the pay per
view, and they weren't happy withthat and decided to walk out. Now

(01:09:00):
I get it, they don't.They don't like better stuff. They want
a tag team championship to be represented. It's not what they were led to
believe. They wanted to be.They wanted to make those titles mean something,
and what we see from Sasha,those titles mean something to her.
They breathe them into life. Herand Bailey. They made them a reality
and she wants something represented property.I respect that, okay, but when

(01:09:21):
the circumstances come out around it,like they were gonna put you in a
match where you were actually gonna faceRonda and you're gonna face Bianca whether you
win or not, Like that's goodfor you. At the same time,
it's like, when it comes downto it at the end of the day,
you could bitch and moment to complainall you want, but when the
boss tells you you gotta go outthere and you gotta do what you gotta

(01:09:41):
do, you gotta do what yougotta do. You sign the contract.
That's what you're paid for. So, I mean, fair enough if you
want to walk out at all.But I mean there's a good argument to
make whether they're in the right orwhether they're in the wrong. I feel
bad, Well I don't. Idon't feel bad, but it must have
been a pretty awkward conversation for theirhusbands. Well here's the thing, right,

(01:10:01):
Like they talk about so people arelike, wwwe, they're so disorganized,
immediately talked about having a tournament forthe tag team Championships, and now
they've kind of backed up and said, well, we'll figure out what we
want to do. The titles wedon't know. Now, just get rid
of them. They're stupid. Imaginethat is there. That is the revenge
on Sash the banks. I'd belike, see you never imagine that.

(01:10:23):
I'd be like, oh, oh, okay, so you're upset that we
were going to put you in singlematches for the championship. You wanted more
focus on the tag team champ orwhat you're leading, or you put the
belt down or you're going home seethese belts? Yeah, gone retired,
you know, like never don't Andthen in the end the fight that you
put up actually was more detrimental thanit was good, right, I mean,

(01:10:47):
what's the point of those things?Anyways? They're stupid. I don't
think they're stupid. I think ifreally fully committed and they did a good
job of it, Okay, Butyes, I will say outside of the
Kabuki Warriors, and I actually thoughtNight Jackson, Sash and Shana Bazer did
a pretty good job with them.They had them for a while. There's

(01:11:09):
been like two or three teams maybe, but like, yeah, I agree
that for the most part, thehasn't been booked fairly well. But you
know, WBE just has not donea very good job at booking more than
one or two women's programs at once. Yeah, they're dumb. It sucks.
I got a question though, beforewe do get into predictions, is

(01:11:31):
the brand split gonna be over,because like everything's being united. I don't
know. The tag team championships areunified now, right, Yeah, I
guess, but there's this whole questionmark because the ww title and the SmackDown
title are I guess unified, butat the same time, they're not like
one belt anymore. He carries aroundthe boat the tag team pedals as well,

(01:11:54):
and people are talking about how,like you know, Rains might defend
one and not the other, Solike are they just unified for now?
And then whoever takes one title offhim changes that again, like because we
do have to work towards the wW championship, right and like that's that's
that's a horrible idea. You're gonnahave a losing champion. What do you
mean, Well, if you loseone of your two belts, you're a

(01:12:16):
champion who lost. I guess youput what you decide which one you put
on the line, unless you putboth of them on the line, that's
stupid. You gotta find a wayto work towards Rustlemania next year, right,
Like let's say Cody Rhodes goes onhe wins the Royal Rumbo. He
wants to challenge for the w WChampionship. Well he can because maybe Roman
Reigns drops that versus like Kevin Owenswhen the Rock comes in and interferes,
and then he still has one championshipor maybe not. I don't know.

(01:12:41):
I really have no idea because Idon't think they have any idea. Fuck
the brand split, there's not.The roster is small. Yeah, I
agree with you. I don't thinkthey need to do anymore. No,
we don't need to do anything.And you see Kevin Owens showing up on
SmackDown. You see how those superstarsshowing up on show, So like,
yeah, I agree. Oh isthat? What was that thing called when
they were allowed to do that?The the wild card rule? One superstar

(01:13:04):
every week can appear on another.Yeah, and then it changed like four
superstars a week, and then it'sjust like, oh my god, we
have a trade. We have atrade. We have a trade. Ladies
and gentlemen. Yeah no, yeah, all right, let's do it.
Let's get into the predictions. Ladiesand gentleman. Helena cell this Sunday per

(01:13:28):
view, did the premis Oh yeah, that's true. What other words are
gonna be fucking bad. You getthe wiki open, but I'm opening it
now. All right, ladies andgentlemen, we have Helena cell Sunday,
June fifth, pay per view Moneyin the Bank moved to a no longer

(01:13:48):
a stadium. May you read that? Oh no? Yeah? Really?
And did you see Tony CON's tweet? They're afraid No, He tweeted,
He's like I had the best meetingof my life this weekend. Met with
Dana from the UFC, Dana Whitefrom UFC, had dinner and talk about
business, and I was able tobreak the news to him that WWE has

(01:14:12):
to move money the bank to asmaller venue ha ha haha kind of thing.
And it's like really bro like reallyman like, he's probably got the
smallest most Yeah, like he's thisguy's security's always showing. It's so ridiculous.
I would love I actually think TonyCON's pretty funny. I actually like
the fact that he pulls in talent. He books great, honestly, aw

(01:14:34):
books amazing pay per views. Butwhen he opens his mouth, I'm like,
dude, I would like you ifit was only wasn't for your fucking
mouth and opinions Anyways, all right, ladies and gentlemen, we have six
matches on the card. From whatI was hearing, one of the biggest
complaints word that they're all from rawand there are no SmackDown matches. I've

(01:14:56):
been looking at that now and itactually might be true. Yeah, there's
like no spect that matches on here. Yeah, it's weird, isn't Judgment
Day spectow we I don't think theydo the pay per view to pay per
views anymore. I don't think it'slike brand specific. No, I mean
Judgment Day the fucking the Edge.Oh no, they're wrong. Oh yeah,

(01:15:18):
so it's all wrong. Yeah,all right, let's jump into things.
I know Jay's got double duty todo tonight, so let's get things
rolling along. Guys. We gotFinnbaaler, Aj Styles and Live Morgan.
They are the club. They're throwingup the two sweet signal every single week
against the Judgment Day Edge, DamianPriest and Ria Ripley. Now, before

(01:15:39):
we get into this, I wantto give you a funny anecdote. I
don't know if you heard do youhear the news about Riddling and Damian Priest?
Riddle and Damian No? Okay,so now Riddle. It's officially divorcement
his wife. I know there wasthat whole Remember there's a whole drama of
him like he's not banging Damian priests. No, but here's the thing.
She's come out and said that DamianPriests and Riddle are out banging strips together,

(01:16:00):
sick. And not only are theybanging the strippers. Well, I
don't know if it's priests, butthe wife says that he Riddle will have
sex with men or women. He'sbisexual. He'll do whatever you're into.
Man, He's just like, let'sjust do it. Man. Let's just
I could see you. I couldsee you. So I don't know if
the wife's just being salty. Youknow, we do see women who are,

(01:16:23):
you know, going through a lotof shit, tending to try to
throw their men into the bus anddestroy their careers. I ever heard,
and you know, I'm glad tosee that. Sometimes. Now we're a
little bit smarter to second guess things, and here I am not being too
sure about it. We'll have towait and see. Maybe she's salty,
or maybe he is a scum.Maybe he's scumbye, he's an asshole.

(01:16:43):
I don't know. We'll see.But anyway, I thought it was funny
because apparently Priests and Riddle are fuckbuddies. He man, why not good?
So six person mixed tag team edDemy, Priest, Rea Ripley,
AJ Styles Live Morgan. Yeah,what do you think about this one?

(01:17:05):
If Judgment Day loses its stupid JudgmentDay needs to win everything. I think
they I think Judgment Day is gonnahave to win just because they just added
Ripley, right, they just addedher. I think she got like the
better end better. I think shehad pinned this week. Actually she did.
She did, which I thought wasstupid. If you're trying to build

(01:17:25):
her up to be this animal,they're like, you know what, Ripley's
not working. Let's hit the resetbutton on her and then you have her
losing again. Already Holy crap.But again I go for booking. In
terms of heading into the pay perview, you got Judgment Day, Edge,
Damian Priest. They're together, they'rea team. Finn Balle AJ Styles
Live Morgan. I mean, Iwould think they would need to pick up
a win at this point because Edgespicked up a bunch, But I'm gonna

(01:17:48):
go with Judgment Day. I thinkthey're gonna pick up a win here.
Yeah, and somehow I hope thecage is involved here. I also hope
they add another another member, afourth member. Yeah, fourth member would
because that could be who helps themwin maybe and it should be to Chay.
Yeah, they've teased to Massa Champa. They've teased quite a lot of
people. They tease. They eventease like Evil Oscar the Kana one which

(01:18:09):
say yeah, Edge is awesome.He just tweets out those photos. Some
of them are hilarious. Yeah,yeah, some of them are hilarious.
They're very very bold by judgment day. Yeah, all right, moving along
your favorite amigo. Here, wegot Theory Austin Theory versus Mustafa Ali for
the United States Championship. Um,you know Mustaphili. He said, I'm

(01:18:30):
not going to be working for theW anymore. I'm on strike. I
guess they gave him something or promisehim something or said you'll never leave the
w W unless you work. Sohe decided to get back to work and
it's been good to see him,and he's been facing off against Theory in
a program. Austin is your theoryas your United States Champion, I don't

(01:18:50):
see him dropping the title anytime soon. I even hear rumors about him customizing
that championship to have some kind oflike selfie cam on it or something which
is super late. And they actuallyjust made that remade that United States Championship
look dope as fuck, so Ihope they don't damage it too much.
But again, Theory's gonna win thismatch. I agree, and I don't

(01:19:12):
care. Also, I mean,could there be two guys I don't care
about it more. I get you. It's probably gonna be an okay match.
I like, I think Mustafa Ali'sgreat. He's super entertaining, but
like Mustafa Alie has to be againstlike somebody also exciting for me to be
excited, and it ain't awesome Theory. No, it's not theory. I

(01:19:33):
like Theory on the mic. He'sthe kind of guy's like I like watching
him a programs like Walking looking athim being awkward. I loved him in
the way with Johnny Gargana. Hewas hilarious and he'll play that role well.
But in the ring it's like vanilla, you know, it's like nothing
super special. All right, wegot Ezekiel, not Alas. Just be
clear, it is Azekiel versus KevinOwens one on one. What do you

(01:19:58):
got look to go from Stone couldsee of Austin to Ezekiel. I mean
he's still pulling it off because he'sfucking Kevin Owens. I don't love it,
but just let Kevin won Owens wineverything. But I don't think he's
gonna. I think Ezekiel's so I'veactually really enjoyed this program with him.

(01:20:19):
Oh I do have to say onemore thing. If Ezekiel actually has a
twin brother, that would be likethe earl head Nur Swerve. It would
be great. Like if if fuckingonce his name came out, I'd be
like, oh shit, the payoffwas worth it. I feel they could

(01:20:41):
be doing a lot more with thisthan they are, Like you just exactly
gave me an idea. They couldbe rushing the match. Also, the
lights could go out or during thematch, you could hear like and Kevin's
like what what and they gets rolledup and pinned or something? Right,
Yeah, something happens, Like I'mso surprised Kevin Owens has tried everything to
expose Ezekiel lie detector tests, comingout himself dressing like Ken Owens. You

(01:21:04):
see that one. He's like,yeah, I'm Ken Owens. I'm Kevin
Owens older brother. Nice to meetyou, Ezekiel. And Ezekiel's like,
oh, nice to meet you,Ken Owens. No, I'm Kevin Owens.
You don't get this ad, youknow, like it's so hilarious.
He's blowing up in his face weekafter week after week. You know,
it would have been really clever ifthey would have gotten Ezekiel to cut a

(01:21:26):
promo for this match before he shavedhis beard and then had them and then
had him appear on the time tron. Yeah, that'd be good. I'm
missing Kevin Owens. Could just belike, here, here's a guitar.
Play it, you know, like, why haven't they brought a guitar near
him? The guitar should be thecrypto. He's like, I can't help
myself. Yeah exactly. Yeah,they can do so much with it,
and maybe it's a long game.But again, this would be great booking,

(01:21:47):
so it probably won't happen. Giveit up for Ezekiel though. Oh
yeah, it's great. He's good. He's funny. I've always liked the
Lias. I'm not as a like, I'm not like a Lias wrestler fan,
but like, of course, comedyaspect is always been good. Yeah,
I like the program, And honestly, I know you haven't been watching
RAW a lot or in general,but if you, I hope you watched

(01:22:08):
How To Sell, I would atleast tell you to watch watch the um
the pre video segment, because you'llit'll be a lot of comedy gold where
you'll see the past. I'm gonnayou'll see the past few weeks of Kevin
Owens just like losing his shit.He even went on to SmackDown and did
a Kevin Owens show with Sammy Zanewhere he said, Sammy, you're all

(01:22:30):
about conspiracies. I need your helpman, this whole Zekiel thing. He's
like, no, no, Kevin, Kevin, I have my own problems
right now. I'm part of thebloodline and all this stuff. Kevin's like
what what? No, No,You're not like they're using you like OOS.
You saw that? Heh He's like, oose What do you just call
me? OOS's hilarious. I loveit, Sammy's a Kevin O's are one

(01:22:50):
of the one of the best thingsgoing right now in WCB. I didn't
think that they were gonna last thisand be as big a part of WWS
there and then at the end,at the end, he's like he holds
like it's Sammy's saying crazy and he'slike, let's listen, Kevin, listen.
I was gonna say it, butlike it's quite clear Ezekiel and Elias
are different people. And he's likewhat He's like, you're the person that's

(01:23:10):
all but conspiracy theories and you beleave it too. And I love I
love it, and I love thefact that it's like so obvious that it
is, but they're actually like usingit as a storyline and saying Elia's his
name, which normally WW wouldn't allowthat. So it's like it's so fun.
I think it's great. Yeah,I know it's somehow it's worked and
I don't know why it has Kevinand that's why, ye Ezekiel's gonna win.

(01:23:33):
Yeah, Ekiel's going yeah, allright, Bobby Lashy versus almost an
MVP, a two on one handycap match, Bobby lash is still gonna
win it. Nah, I thinkI'm as an MVP, you're gonna win
it because that way he can belike Bobby lash Is, like, I
don't want to lose a game,Okay, well we need to make almost
a star, so you'll lose,but we'll put MVP on the IT on

(01:23:57):
his team. That way, itdoesn't seem fair, and you didn't lose
fair early, I guess. Ihonestly don't give a shit though. This
is like a three match card forme. They're gonna add one or two
more probably onto this, but yeah, I agree, Yeah, they gotta
put some smack down. There's onlyone hell in the cell. I know
the women's Maybe they'll drop the selfof the women. I hope they do.

(01:24:20):
Yeah, maybe that's true. Soyou got Bobby still Yeah, yeah,
Bobby and I got almost an MVP. So Bianca Belair Oscar. We're
supposed to face off one on one. Becky Lynch sided herself, sidled herself
into this match. Um. Becky'sbeen great. I mean again, like
she really reinvented herself. She's funnyas hell. Um, and uh,

(01:24:45):
I don't know, like she's thathaircut now that she's got going. She
was like Sharon Stone this week.Yeah, sometimes I like it, sometimes
I don't. But she's so skinnynow yeah it's creepy. Yeah, I
don't know, man, I don'tknow enough about what's going on to really
be able to call this match.Does anybody have a chance against Bianca?
So I'm only a little bit excitedabout this because Oscar has been getting beat

(01:25:09):
the past two weeks in a row, so I feel like she's been eating
pins because maybe should win this match. But I also feel like, look,
Oscar's had a title, like theydon't really do much with her when
she's champion. Doesn't make sense.So like I'm also like made peace in
the sense that, like, ifOscar wins or doesn't win, I'm okay
with that. She also could bea very easy person to take the pin,
so like Becky doesn't get damaged.But also I feel like Bianca Blair

(01:25:34):
the TV times she's getting and thetreatment that she's getting like doesn't sound like
chance. I feel like champion tome, she's always kind of an afterthought.
She's on commentary, she's not featureas much, so I almost feel
like the w W wants to takethat title off of her. So we'll
be Becky, will be Oscar.Maybe it's Oscar and then Oscar faces off
against Becky at Money in the Bank. I could see that too, and

(01:25:57):
Oscar kind of wins titles in thesetypes of match. Yes, yes,
yes, yes, you are right. She does, so she does sneak
them in. It could be onewhere she does win it, like she
could pin Becky. Bianca's clean andthen Oscar and Becky feud for a bid,
which which I'm fine with, allright. Oscar and Becky always put
on great matches against each other,so I wouldn't mind seeing these guys go

(01:26:18):
at it again, even if it'sOscar dropping the title immediately the Becky adds
another rain to Oscar. Um,you know whatever. But Bianca, she
won the championship again Rustlemania. Theyput a lot of money investment to her.
So what do you think? Whodo you think he's gonna pick up
the win in this triple threat matchfor the Raw Women's Championship. Fuck it,
I'll give you one. I'll gowith Oscar just for you, But

(01:26:41):
I think it's Bianca. I'm gonnago with Bianca. Y. Yeah,
I think Bianca will pin Osca.Yeah probably, Yeah, But I hope
you're right, and I hope I'mwrong, and I'm doing in a sense
to hope i'm wrong. Yeah,but I think Bionc I'm gonna go Bianca.
Yeah cool, all right, Mainevent time, guy, It's Cody
Rose for the Seth freaking Rollins forthe hell in the hell the cell.

(01:27:03):
This is their final match. Ihope the rubber mattch number match actually because
Cody eighty one two. I didn'treally know if there was much more mileage
on this feud, but week afterweek they've been doing a very good job.
Seth coming out, laughing and doingthe goofy stuff. I'm tired of
Cody coming out every week and talkingabout Dusty. I love Dusty, he

(01:27:23):
is a legend. But let Codypave a pathway for Cody and not always
thinking about Dusty. So I'm gettinga little bit tired about that. But
I love this past week. Ilove the promo back and forth. I
love him dropping, the fact thathe went off with his friends to create
a company to tear down the WWEand it didn't work, and the fact
that he smashed the throne and thenSeth didn't like that and it's not gonna

(01:27:47):
be happening on his watch. Iloved it all. It was very personal
and as much as those breaking apartwith all the officials coming down, Shit's
been overplayed. This still really workedwell and it was a great segment.
Um, so I'm excited for thismatch. Can they do another banger?
I don't know. We got tosee some blood, man, I want
to see a a little bit ofblood in this match. If you vering

(01:28:08):
teed, there's blood in this match. And Cody's gonna Cody's gonna do something
crazy, I hope. So,I hope. So they got to do
something special in this match. Anduh, look, I really cannot see
a world where Cody Rodes goes threeno against The only thing is if seth

(01:28:29):
Rones wins, how does Cody belike, Okay, you beat me?
Moving on, No, you can't. But is gonna win? Wouldn't seth
Rones? Isn't that really gonna damagehim? To lose three in a row
against Cody? No, seth Thronesis a cockroach man. Yes, I
mean he might leave for a littlebit. I don't know. Yeah,

(01:28:54):
I don't know. Probably recently,though not too long ago, so I
don't think. So, I don'tknow. I can't see Cody Rose listen,
but Cody does that to loosen hedoes, yeah, he does.
So who do you got Cody Rhodeswinning I got Seth freaking Rollins. He's
gonna pull away to win this.I don't know what it's gonna be.
I don't know if you're gonna pullsome some shady shit, maybe something from
underneath the ring, maybe a stompon something illegal. Um but uh and

(01:29:18):
hopefully won't be a repeat of theHell to Sell Maut to bray Wyat,
because that was something we all wantto forget about. But I got Seth
Rawlins, and those are your picksheading in to hell to sell. We
did it, we did it,and I got five minutes to spare well.
I gotta take my my poop likeclockwork. Like clockwork, I'll announce

(01:29:41):
I am going to SmackDown in Montreal. I bought myself a ticket. When's
that in August? I think,oh yeah, remember when we were just
smack down in Montreal and we didn'tsend the floor. We saw it in
the on the lower bowl. Igot one right in the lower bowl as
far up as you can, likea really nice spot, really yea best
seat in the house I find forSmackDown. So I'm excited for that.
