Roman Reigns successfully defended his WWE Universal Championship against Jey Uso in a dramatic showdown. The match took an unexpected turn as Jey seemed poised to secure a surprising victory over Reigns, executing a Spear and a powerful splash. However, the match's dynamic shifted dramatically when Jimmy Uso, who had been absent from WWE television since his injury during the Tribal Court, reemerged.
At a critical moment during the match, Jimmy intervened, yanking Jey out of the ring. This sudden and shocking intervention halted Jey's momentum and altered the course of the match. Jimmy's absence had left fans wondering about his whereabouts, but his return at Summerslam was far from anticipated.
In a stunning turn of events, Jimmy, Jey's twin brother, unexpectedly betrayed him. He launched a ruthless assault on Jey just as victory seemed within reach. Jimmy's unanticipated interference and subsequent attack marked a shocking betrayal that added an extra layer of complexity to the ongoing storyline involving Roman Reigns, Jey Uso, and the Universal Championship.
Jimmy Uso's sudden appearance and his betrayal of his own brother injected a new level of intrigue and suspense into the ongoing feud. His actions not only affected the match's outcome but also raised numerous questions about his motivations and the future dynamics within the Uso family and the WWE Universe.

Whoa Hey, isn't to day youbrick with and believe it or not.
Whether you like it or not likeit, learn to love it because you
have prison to wrestling and real itis the best day going today. WHOA
the worldwide leader of podcasting excellence,the king of podcasts Radio Network probably presents
(00:24):
the Wrestling Is Real podcast because wrestlingdeeps us. We're gonna talk Bloodline tonight
here on the program. So let'sget started and let's go and bring up
what happened? A recap from SummerSlamand the bloodline, Brother liber Trail,
(00:45):
Oh gos Glass, the raid isover? Who the hell? What the
hell? Aw? You'll fight atech nin jermy? What the hell?
(01:06):
Let you go? Just think?Listen to that crowd response. Why,
(01:37):
keep in mind, you saw thatstoryline unveil itself at Summer Slam, and
there were people over the weekend andgoing into this week I thought that the
storyline is now fucked up. Whywhat would make you think that what they
did right there was so bad?Well, listen, I understand some of
the fans out there and why theywould be a little bit complaining about it,
(02:00):
of course, and there are someof my fellow podcast Wrestling Brother,
and they're going to go ahead andtake the opportunity to go ahead and not
just praise the bloodline storyline because ofwhat it is. Okay, they're not
going to go ahead and kiss ass, fine, but they're also going to
just play Devil's advocate just for thesake of clicks. Okay, go for
it, have at it. Itdoesn't matter to me. What I know
(02:22):
is when I look at this here, I'm saying to myself, O,
Kate. So they decided to gothis route, and I'm like, all
right, if you're in old schoolfan of storytelling and dramas and series where
you have this kind of issue goingalong, Okay, well, I'm used
to this kind of thing, thelong drawn out storyline to get to the
(02:45):
payoff. But we never get toa payoff. It just continues to go
on and on, and for somepeople this might be droning because they're sitting
himself, well, there doesn't makeany sense here. After all the issues
where Jay and Jimmy got together,and then it was the eventual tension with
Sammy Zen in the picture. Weknow that, and then we get to
(03:05):
hear and then the whole swerve ofJayusa being thought to be the upcoming tribal
chief, the main event, theone that was being pegged by Roman Reins
to be the successor. But Jimmy'sthe one that screws the opportunity for Jimmy
for Jayuso to come in. Andwe talked about this on the post show.
I did want kipa podcasts dot comyou can find the episode. I
(03:30):
thought the storytelling was still very welldone. And let me just put it
to you like this. For somepeople that just think that the storylines is
going to be cutting dry, thisis a family storyline. And in a
family storyline, family can go aheadand waiver one side to the other.
As we already saw the Usos aftergetting screwed over by Roman Reigns and being
(03:53):
screwed over by their younger brother SoloZakoa, we're still able to go and
try to make amends. There weretrying to a matter of fact, Tribal
Court was still trying to keep thefamilly together. Believe it or not,
wasn't gonna happen. Roman wouldn't doanything less and keep control. And then
(04:14):
with that said, Jimmy already havingthe animosity and that was kind of played
up until Jimmy and Jay betrayed Romanand the bloodlines civil war came to be.
We thought that Jimmy and Jay wereon lockstep, but at the tribal
Court we saw that Jay got hurtbetween Jimmy got hurt, and then Jay
went on and mid and went intothe tribal combat match. But Jimmy doesn't
(04:42):
want to see this play out.And now the one thing that some of
the Wrestling Dirt sheets have done isthey're now trying to pontificate where did the
storyline go next? What are thereasons that we're gonna find on SmackDown why
Jimmy USO did what he did.This is not a storyline that's broken.
This is not a storyline that's notgoing in a direction that doesn't make sense.
You can make it makes sense.It's just some people don't like the
(05:03):
suspense and saying okay, they wantto have the beginning and end, and
they don't like that this is goingon for so long. For some people,
they might be getting impatient, theymight be getting indignant, and they're
saying, okay, well, I'mtired of this. Let's move along with
this. We're tired of Roman holdingon to the belt. We're tired of
Roman holding on the story of thebloodline and holding the whole family hostage,
(05:25):
and that we need to see apayoff. Okay, Cody, you didn't
let him win the belt at WrestleMania. Jay goes after the belt, can't
win a Summer Slam. What next? I get it. I'm in the
MIoD of watching Dallas. I thinkI've said this on this program. If
I haven't, I said on otherpodcasts. But I've been watching the series
Dallas, three hundred and fifty sevenepisodes. It's an undertaking and right now
(05:47):
at season thirteen, saves in thirteenof fourteen, and at this moment,
it's evolving a family, the Ewings, Jr. And Bobby. Maybe some
of the older fans might understand whatI'm talking about. All I'm gonna say
is that it's been It's a familythat is all raised up in power.
There's one good son is very honestand very forthcoming, but also it can
(06:11):
have a mean streak and also cannot be had when he is focused.
The other brothers, the older brotherJr. Who is absolutely ruthless and vile
and villainous, and you know itdoesn't give a shit. He'll get anything
and take anything that he wants,and he doesn't care who he screws over
(06:31):
or who he destroys in his path. It's like Roman reigns right now,
and the ewings are like Bobby andRay raise the stepson or the stepbrother in
this crew, or Gary, whichis the other brother that's not part of
the doll storyline. All I'm sayingis that there are three sons and one
stepson, one stepbrother, three brothers, one stepbrother, and the father raised
(06:59):
them up to be strong and toughand don't take any ship, and be
successful and be powerful, and youknow, grew them to a certain liking.
And so throughout the series Murmur,it's the thirteen seasons. I'm watching
out fourteen. It's over fourteen years, and throughout the series there are in
plenty of times where things happen thatcause the brothers to fall apart and break
(07:24):
off and fight each other, onlyto make amends and patch things up because
at the end of the day they'restill family. Like right now, I'm
looking with the fact that we hadto deal with We're at the comment of
the storyline right now, and I'mwatching on Dallas. Is that Jr.
And Bobby we're finally back on thesame page. And Jr. Got as
(07:46):
good grace as to work back inthe family company. Okay, but now
the Jr's back in the family company, he's starting to go back to his
old tricks wheeling, a dealing,styling and profiling and just screwing people over.
Okay, when things you're actually goinggood for him, but they can't
let things be let alone. He'sa villain. He's a bad guy,
but he's a likable bad guy.And people love Jr. Union because that
(08:09):
guy was just was just tough,kind of have a Rick Flair kind of
mystique to him, if you wanta wrestling similarity. So anyway, what's
going on here with you? Soit's for them to split and then come
back together. This can happen.And we already kind of had this animosity
(08:31):
before at the beginning of twenty twentywhen Jamie got hurt and what about the
other times when you know, youcan always use the parts where Jimmy always
gotten some of in trouble. There'sa lot of things you could use here
to play up the storyline right now. There's a lot of ways they can
work through this. This is notlike I honestly think one number one that
(08:52):
the storyline has been made and they'renot doing this blindly without a reason why.
Okay, the direction of the storylinecannot be You might be confused and
you might say what are they doingand you're upset about it, but it's
not going to stop you from watchingthe storyline. It's just another wrinkle.
(09:15):
Okay, they have to keep doingthis the storyline. We'll have an ultimate
end. I know that's going tohappen someday. Right now, they already
culminated with Cody and Brock finishing upa three month feud. So after WrestleMania,
the fact that Cody and Brock facedeach other and they finally got to
the amend and Brock walks away andsays, okay, well you're the better
(09:39):
man tonight and you beat me twoout of three times, so normal animosity
with Brock and Cody. It's done. Cody isn't able to go and move
forward if he wants to towards thatundisputed universal title. If we're going to
get to that point, but they'reon two different brands. We'd have to
figure out how that's gonna work.But anyway, Cody, right, I
(10:01):
could go after the World heavyweight title. I don't think he's going to do
that. There's too much going onright now with Seth freaking Rollins to go
with that. But I think eventuallywe'll get to that point. And with
Jimmy and j this ongoing storyline andthe fact that this really clouds up anything
else going on with Roman reigns.I mean, he's defending the title very
limited and continues to rack up daysand rack up the one of the longest
(10:26):
title rains in this generation, thelongest title rain of this generation. And
then pretty soon he's gonna starting magicup with records with other top level main
eventors in the history of this company. That's gonna be coming up soon.
So now we move along here,And there was something to be said,
(10:52):
and I'm taking from Bleacher Reporter talkingabout that this could be a predictable result
that could still be peak entertainment.Jimmy was so close, or would be
Jay was so close and then anotherscrewjob. Just didn't know it would be
Jimmy Rains winning seemed inevitable, theysaid, But Jimmy betraying Jay certainly wasn't.
(11:16):
Fans were more plugged than ever tothe business, and modern times understand
doesn't have much incentive to end theTravel Chiefs run at a non Wrestlemany event,
and especially not the Jay There's toomuch meat and less on the bone
beat a showdown Lestil Sakoa the Rock, or an eventual loss to Cody Rhodes.
Right, they still could play offthat day. Maybe the Rock will
have that moment. Well, hefinally will get the work at WrestleMania,
(11:37):
and he will be the face comingin to avenge for the Family against the
travel chief That match sells itself oncethat match is booked. Let me put
it like this, if people thoughtit was a good idea for that match
to happen in Hollywood last year orthis year for WrestleMania, you're wrong.
(11:58):
Cody was the right choice for thistime around. If we want to get
to The Rock coming up here nextyear in Philadelphia, yes, that would
be a hell of a match.And if you could get The Rock to
come back to do this and worka long storyline with occasional appearances, maybe
(12:22):
even have Cody take on the Rockor something in a tag team match.
Is something that we could have somethinghere to work it out. I loved
that there's a lot left now.Bleacher Report says that the storytelling occurred in
a fun way with Jimmy getting involvedagain and fans could reasonably expected he would
(12:45):
be a non factor in the equationof the main event. Now. The
Bleacher Report rider here, Chris roll. He makes the point and says that
the Seeds have been there almost weeklybecause Paul has been jabbing and barbing and
blaming Jay for Jimmy's injury. They'vemade that clear, and they were consistent
about that. They kept hitting thathome. His commentary about Jimmy losing everything
(13:09):
if he happens the wind seems worthbringing up too, right, because there's
the other part where you know Jimmywould have wanted the same thing that Jay
was going after as well. Butthey're still brothers. They can't share that
that tribal chieftain, they can't sharethat belt. So they said, the
motive for Jimmy from a storytelling perspective, doesn't have to be complicated. He's
(13:33):
jealous of his brother, which thatworks and makes sense for me as a
tag team. They both beat Romanreigns. Recently, he's trusted it with
another injury, thinks he could havedone the match better. Maybe he didn't
want to see his twin brother becomethe tribal chief with the wind, only
to watch helplessly as it corrupted Janenext. Right, whatever the reason,
(13:56):
the swerved opens the tons of fundoors. Ones can face off each other
one on one with a strong storyline, dentifications, and heavy fan investment.
Right, you split this off intoanother storyline and there you go. Man
often running Jimmy and Jay and Romanwill relish in these brothers feuding with each
other, the sibling rivalry and Soloalso being brought into the mix. Like
(14:18):
that would work for me too.Whatever this reason, the latest werve opens
these doors. Now payback. Theycould stretches to a Mania and could have
a triple tret with ros Rains aSaka at a pay per view like fast
Lane that went entertained. Like,there's a lot of ways they can go
with this. There's no shortage rightnow now to keep up the storyline Trump
(14:39):
going from bloodlines civil war to travelcombat. That's gonna be tough not to
figure out how they're gonna get there. So the goal is for Roman Rains
as a string along until the nextMania. Well, right now, he's
got a mini beef with Solo afteran accident the hitting with a spear Saturday
night at disrupting their chemistry, sothat has to get sort of out.
(15:00):
So there's friction there we haven't talkedabout with Solo and Roman, which it's
already bad enough that Solo abandoned hisbrothers to pledge allegiance and acknowledgement to Roman
reigns, and maybe Jimmy gets awhole chance at one on one two.
There's that pesky Paul Hayman who couldturn at any moment, and that Paul
(15:22):
Hayman during the post match pressor saidthat this thing is still in the early
goings is the only viable option toevery top has run with brock Lester,
and he makes a point, we'restill in the bottom of the third.
Well, actually, I'm gonna playthis clip. I want to go in
here what Paul Hayman says and justtry to interpret what he's trying to say
off of this, because you knowhe's involved in the storyline here. It
(15:45):
is bottom third, I mean,but just friguring this stuff out. We
haven't even we haven't even hit ourstride. Yet there there's this. If
(16:06):
you want to take the arrogant approach, I'm sure Paul of that will tell
you all the box office records thathave been smashed. And every Friday night
when we show up at SmackDown,we're always told, this is the largest
gate of this, and this isthe largest gate of that. This is
the largess premium live effective miss isthe largest WrestleMania. Okay, we can,
(16:26):
we can, we can siter andand point to what really drope all
of this, and that's quite clearlythe bloodline. And when I see the
bloodline nine essentially being the tribal chiefRoman Rings. But we're just figuring this
out. There's so much more tolearn. There's so much more for us
to grasp. There's so much morefor us to master. It's a craft
(16:48):
and and and and it's and it'sand it's an evolving craft. It's it's
like mixed martial arts. If it'sif someone sits there into an arm,
I'm another nineteenth dan black belt injiu jitsu, they're going to get shoked
out the next week. Because it'san ever evolving sport, and this is
an ever evolving form of entertainment.And if you sit there and you think,
like, man, we drot this, this is it. Okay,
(17:10):
we're gonna we're cruising now all inWrestleMania. We're gonna be replaced, and
we should be. If you don'tcome at this with the greatest ambitions to
be much better tomorrow than you aretoday and much better to day so now
than you are tomorrow, then you'reyou're not here to be the greatest of
all time and now. So Pauldoesn't want to give up too much saying
(17:34):
that we're a third of the storylinein basically because if you're using a baseball
scenario, bottom of the third,Yeah, six more innings to go.
I don't know how long this isgoing to be, but they could easily
go. I'm not kidding. Ithink they could go maybe two more years
with us. We could get toa five year reign with Roman reigns.
(17:56):
I mean, what else is there. This is where I always taw about
the fact that they have to buildup their stars to be at the level
of Roman Rains. Maybe that's notpossible because maybe Roman Rains takes up so
much air in the entire company thatno one else is going to be able
to be booked or every of thechance to book themselves to a level that
they could be that. Now,of course there's gonna be some stars that
(18:18):
people are gonna want to see thatmaybe they can get somewhere up to that
level. But remember, you haveall those years of Roman Rains that you
spent on him to get him wherehe is now, and all the other
ones that went through n XT thatwere brought in from other organizations, and
right now you're at a level oflike, well, you got everybody that
you have, and all these olderstars have been around. There's not anybody
younger that's going to come right upor anybody else from another organization that's going
(18:41):
to build up to where they couldbe at the level. But I mean,
I still think that if you hadsomebody over on the SmackDown that you
could bring in that could be athorn in the side of Roman Rains would
be nice. I think that wouldcomplete everything that Roman not only has to
(19:02):
deal with the USOS now he hasthis issue with SOLO. I think having
that triumvirate, that that third thingto worry about would be nice to have
as well. That's where I'm comingfrom. Both all this because that was
the part that also worked well becauseJimmy and Jay were kind of a odds
a little bit, and then saysAman was brought into the mix, there's
(19:23):
that other thing. We're good.Then Cody got brought in to the mix.
There's a whole lot going on atthe same time where we need to
see Roman Rains being attacked on allends in all different directions, and I
think we can get to that point. I just don't know where it's going
to be. So this story fromChris Rolling makes the point. You remember
(19:51):
the days when brock Closer had atime wouldn't even show up on a weekly
show, or when top titles wouldn'tget defended, or when Raw didn't even
have one that hits multiple long questto Buy because it's entertaining, is dripping
with long form storytelling, and it'sconsistent in those things. So they're Philly
programming between now and the next mediawe're in the off season. By the
way, we haven't talked much aboutthe off season or made that point because
(20:12):
we're not upset right now. I'mnot in a bad place. It's one
of the very rare times I cango into the off season right now,
and I'm fucking excited. I justwent on and talked about wrestling with my
friend Lou Pate on radio this weekterrestri He was broadcasting this week out of
(20:32):
Bridgeport, Connecticut, and I talkedabout all that, and you know,
I don't want to I'm not gonnaplay the cliff here, but I put
it on my broadcasters podcast channel ifyou want to take a look at it
for yourself. I talked about thatand how much of other things in the
media, So you can look forthat right now King of Podcasts dot com.
It's the latest broadcasters podcast right now. Go ahead and download and take
a listen for yourself. Talk aboutfirst fifteen twenty minutes about wresting. I'll
(20:56):
hope you'll check that out. Now. What I want to think about next
is where else can they go inthis whole route? When I try to
think about what they've done so farand from all the times I have discussed
the bloodline here on this program andwhat they've done so far, the betrayal
(21:18):
part. Every time works, Ikeep enjoying it, and I'm trying to
think to myself, where else dowe go now now that we're at this
point where Jimmy and Jay are atodds And that's what I want to figure
out, because right now, theone thing is for sure, Roman Rains
(21:41):
is not safe. He might usedto be holding onto that belt, but
the bloodline is broken right now,and I'm wondering if this is something where
Jimmy USO is going to work hisway back into defold. That's the question
nobody's asking yet. Is Jimmy gonnago back to Roman? Is Jimmy going
to be convinced by Roman to goback? And I think with the celebration
(22:04):
for Roman reigns on Friday, Ithink that's what happens. I think Jimmy's
gonna fall back in with Roman andJay will be will be odd man out.
And you know why Jacob be oddman out because he allowed Sammy Zane
to be in the mix. Andthat could be also something that's not forgivable
at all. She could go thatroute. I don't think it's a bad
(22:29):
idea, and I think that's whereyou can go if you want to go
that direction. I just don't knowwhere you go next to get there.
That's why I want to find thepart and hopefully we get to that point
because The other part we've got toremember is that every time we started seeing
(22:52):
going on with things were happening withthe USO's right before they were trade Roman,
they both were not exactly on thesame page. Let's remember that part
now. I want to go aheadand go back to Night A Champions and
play a clip back from when wesaw Roman ultimately betrayed by both usos.
Remember that both users were not inthe same page. Remember the dialogue that
(23:17):
Jimmy and j had together before theygot on the same page. So let's
go back to that part again andjust make sure we get that clear.
Just focus on the part of whatJimmy and Jay say to each other.
Oh oh okay one no boy atthe statement, get out of my room.
(23:38):
Jimmy, just tell me what didyou do that? Because been funning
(23:59):
in there. Now remember that partdusk Jay USO saying we got to be
better than that. Already, weremember there was still things that were going
on where things were not on thesame page. Remember that part, and
then we can see you on andthen Jay fall suit. I'm doing what
(24:30):
you said it done a long timeago. Now remember that part. Jimmy
is upset because Jay's always been theweaker side because Jay let a lot of
things happen. We can go backand call back this right here, And
so Jimmy has always felt like hecould have handled things better to where everything
(24:52):
to happen with the Bloodline couldn't havecome to this because jusso could have kept
Roman in Lyne, but he didn't. And Roman and Jay take on each
other, and Jay thought he wasgonna go make that win, but Jimmy's
not gonna allow that to happen.Remember that part. That's the part everybody's
gonna understand that Jimmy always feels likehe was the one that could handle everything.
(25:14):
Oh and remember Jay always had thepoem we're gonna bring that clip up
to about Jay always feeling like healways had to live up the Jimmy and
his expectations. Back to the clip, So there was that part. Now
(25:37):
let's play something else. Now we'regonna go back to SmackDown June sixteenth,
So this is again prior to Moneythe Bank, two weeks before Bloodline Civil
War. Just remember some of thestoryline bits that we got here that created
the riff between Jimmy and Jane.And this is where the Paul him is
going after Jaluso and already given thewhole thing, then the and all this
(26:00):
and that trying to already split upJimmy and Jay in the process. I'm
sorry, I'm sorry I told youthe truth last week. I'm sorry I
was right last week. I'm sorryyour brother Jimmy kicked you in the face
(26:22):
last week and cost you the opportunityto become the next United States Heavyweight Champion.
Do you remember that part? Now, I'll be important to you,
but that is something to remember.There was already the animosity. Because of
that, Jamison could have beaten Austintheory become US champion, but that didn't
happen. Back to the clip,now you know it was intentional. Jimmy
(26:47):
doesn't miss. He has the mostaccurate kick next to yours in all of
WWE. He meant to kick thetribal chief in the face at Night of
Champions, and he meant to kickyou in the face last week. Now
think about this. So if youwanted Jay to be in line with what
(27:07):
was going on, see part ofit is we're kind of in a quandary
right now because Jimmy didn't attack.I am all right, Jimmy did not
attack Roman or solo. And ifJay were to fallow along with what's being
said here, then Jay, whowas already being already being mentioned, to
go ahead like be in line withRoman. Okay, does Jay feel like
(27:33):
he might go back to Roman nowbecause of what Jimmy did? I don't
think it sounds like I mean,it couldn't make sense. You could make
it make sense. I think anygood storyteller or any person in a writer's
room that's on strike right now.Unfortunately, I hope those guys getting themselves
back on the negotiating sianths right now. We're in one hundred one days of
the writers strike. I'll talk aboutthat on the Broadcasters podcast tomorrow anyway,
(27:56):
tangent, but you can make thestory that either Jimmy or Jay could go
back to Roman and return back tothe bloodline with one of the brothers not
there. The twins can be split, But you can make a case that
either one of them could go backback to Paul jealousy and beyond display to
(28:22):
humiliate, an embarrass and victimise hisown twin brother in front of the entire
world. Jay, you don't deservethat, and for that that Jay,
I'm sorry, So you can stillgo along with that, and you can
(28:44):
still sit to yourself. Man,there's something there that we could see you
along right in this whole time,Jay was the one being courted to split
off from Jimmy. Jay was theone getting the chance to during the tribal
court be the one to go afterthe tribal chief. For the tribal chief
(29:04):
though, like Jay was budding alot off to get that shot. So
you could take that right there andalso take into consideration. Let's go on
there later in the night when Romanstalking to Jay and the ring and Jimmy
shows up, let's go to thatpart. And I told you this before.
The problem is your brother. Iknow. I've been with you my
(29:33):
whole lives. You're inseparable, that'swhat it is. You're twins. But
you have to understand, yo yo. I remember it's been for a while,
It had been for a while thatJimmy's coming in and outside the problem
(29:56):
it's our cousin. Yeah, let'sge Jimmy always been outspoken. Let's get
right to it. Those you sayyou're a leader, and you say he
grew me you, but in realityhe's sousing you bruh, Yeah, look
at me, You actually believe thisgarbage that's coming out of his mouth?
(30:22):
Look at mules, do you believethis hold of me? Even there in
(30:45):
the whole animosity here, Man,they weren't doing this ten years ago.
Hell, it's a ten years justto get y'all in WrestleMania. It since
you've been with me. You mayhave been at every single one. He's
an anchor. I'm the wings.I lift you up, he drags you
(31:07):
down. You have a great futurein front of you. I told you
you're the next in line, You'rethe successor. You're the next tribal chief.
And guess what, you can't bea tribal chief in a twin at
the same time. Now, youtake that right there, and that animosity
(31:30):
has been the scenes that were plantedtwo months ago, almost two months ago,
long term storytelling coming back to bite. All of this right here can
be used as fodder, as cannonfodder for Jimmy right now to explain his
actions and why he did not allow. By the way, let me put
(31:52):
this point across to we all understandthat with what happened with Jay, he
did have after everything was said anddone, had Roman in the middle of
the ring, pinned. He wasready to go in that count was ready
to go. Roman was pinned againthe second time that Jay was about to
(32:14):
good and pin Roman, only forthe match to only forts to not happen
because Jimmy stopped it. Jake gotthe pin at Bloodline Civil War, he
was about to pin him and gotthe near fall on a Roman at SummerSlam.
So now we're at this point orit's actually just before money the bank,
(32:35):
not a chance, this was moneyin the bank. Excuse me,
I don't know why I kept sellingthat, but that's money to bank.
It was before that. And thenwe get to this point and all this
planted right here can give you allthe division that you need as to why
Jimmy and Jay are at odds witheach other and where things will go.
(33:00):
And the truth is too. Youhave to keep in mind as well,
how many times did Jay get screwedover? Because wasn't it Jay that also
they also got the shot in theBronx. You know, he got the
cheap shot both times. Remember,Jimmy's the one that's gotten all this here.
Jimmy's made a lot of mistakes inthe eyes of the bloodline in Jimmy's
(33:22):
eyes, in Roman's eyes, inSolo's eyes. What I can see happening
is Jimmy could fall back in linewith the blood line again because Jimmy will
be made the next predecessor to thetribal chief, and that Jay will be
the outcast, the black sheep ofthe family. And then Jay can actually
(33:45):
then move on and just be solonot solo so to go. I'm talking
about a solos wrestler. He couldbe a singles wrestler and dominate main of
Nji Uso. Man, that wouldbe awesome, and you had that split
go on for a while, Butthen you know what you'll get in this
storyline, aside from Roman eventually losingthat belt to someone like Cody Rhodes.
(34:14):
Then we get to play the partwhich was we had with Kevin Owens and
Simysine earlier this year where they patchedthings up and got back together. What
about if we had the USO's ateach other's throats because of what Roman's done
to this family, and Jimmy andJay down the line reconcile and that moment
(34:40):
happens, Man, that will bea moment, like crazy, another storyline
another break off of the storyline intoanother program, because this does always work
well if the bloodline has multiple storylinesin action. So Roman's gonna have his
own storyline again with whoever's gonna behis next opponent, is next adversary,
(35:01):
the next person that's gonna be inline as a contender to take that belt
off of him. And then whenit comes to the USOS, they're gonna
be all thrown storyline right now anyways, So think about all this here and
where it goes, because the bloodlinestoryline works best when they have multiple storylines
in place. So when they hadUSO's versus Zane and Owens and the tag
(35:28):
titles are on the line, andthen you have Roman going up against Cody
or whoever else you have, thatmade for a lot of fun because that's
multiple storylines right there. And thenyou think about the same thing to do
with Judgment Day. There's multiple storylineswith that too. The one thing they're
missing out on, which I've beenseeing some conversations about Ray Ripley's now one
(35:52):
hundred days is champion one hundred thirtydays a champion, and she hasn't defended
the belt much and she hasn't donemuch with the Belt at all. And
it's true, Riah Ripley needs tohave a storyline where there's somebody going up
against her. She needs to havea program for her title that has to
be incorporated somewhere. Meanwhile, yougot Finn and Damien at odds with each
other again and Dominic as a NorthAmerican title, and you know Finn's dealing
(36:19):
with Seth and there's just so muchgoing on. You could do a lot
more with everything. I think it'sjust something that you create multiple storylines to
build this out and then we getto the point of where we're gonna be
soon enough. Now, let's rememberhow things were when we got to the
Trouble Court of Roman Reigns a monthago, and remember there's always been seeds
(36:45):
that happened. Actually, I'm notgonna go to TB Traubal Court yet.
We'll get it that later. ButI just want to get back to a
couple more clips just to finish myargument and make my point. Remember when
Chuso and Roman Rains were at eachother's throats, and that first time that
jay Usso went after the Belt.You know, Roman Rains made a promise,
(37:10):
made a threat. And this iswhen they were still in the thunder.
Don't remember September twenty five, twentytwenty smack Down. So Rumin Rains
attacks j Uso and then just listento what Rumin Rains says once he has
Jusso basically unconscious for once, Jausowants to know what he's truly made of
(37:31):
two nights at two nights for jusSo to realize his dream, or for
Roman Rains sign oh my God Rainswith a super bad punch. I don't
(37:52):
just feed my kids for this title. I don't just bet your kids with
this title. I be with thistitle. I'm thinking needs me the happiest
title. Can you want to takeit from me? You're gonna take your
pay day, You're gonna take theass swooping that comes with it, but
(38:15):
you will never take this title andyou will never take my voice at the
head of the table. Remember thatpart that September twenty twenty. We're going
back that far and we can goback that far in the storyline. Of
course we can't and it will work. What if this was the whole scheme
(38:39):
for Jimmy to go back anyways?Like I mean it's still Jimmy and Roman
at each other's shrows. Because rememberJimmy was you know, quite a few
times was injured or was taken out. Like what if this was a whole
plan? Can we go to thatpoint? I mean, like some of
(38:59):
the fact that you know, theWorld Tag Team Titles they lost it,
and I'm trying to remember, wasit always Jay was the one that was
the reason they lost in certain momentsand things had happened. Let think about
that part. Let's step forward nowJune twenty twenty one where the USS got
(39:19):
heated with each other, and thisis when Jimmy was on the outs right
now, he was, you know, not doing well, and so Jimmy
and Jay at each other's strokes.Let's go to this part. What's up?
Bright? Who was that they holdup us? Let me ask a
song. Do you really think wecould have won the Tag Team titles?
(39:39):
Answer meals? Do you think wecould have won the damn tappies shits?
Yeah? Right? Yeah, soyou did. You weren't mad when we
got did you right? You wereall set? You know what it was?
(40:00):
They can't be like this no more. You hit me. It can't
go down like it's when I askedyou to go with me because you're froze.
You froze on me. I neededyou. You my brother do my
family could do my twin. Youknow what you want to talk about?
(40:27):
Family disgrace. Roman is disgracing ourfamily right now. And what do you
want me to do? You wantto be that boy? Oh year,
my lord Teers went to travel withCheeth Boos. I'm stuck in the middle
of this and I don't know howto get out of me. What you
want me to do? If Romanwant to see me, I'll be an
(40:55):
all locker room. Anyways, theanimosity between them was always built up,
and Roman always stirred that ship up. So they can continue to go with
this route, and there's not muchshows to can be said about it.
There's plenty of other moments I couldplay where they had animosity. I'll keep
(41:21):
in mind as well that all thathappened before Sammy's ain't gotten brought into the
mix, which then that animosity thatwas going on in twenty twenty and twenty
twenty one. Okay, people mighthave forgotten that was going on. Remember
this is a three year storyline.We're talking about three plus years so we
might not remember, some people mightnot remember how much animosity that Jimmy and
(41:43):
Jay had with each other, becauseremember Jimmy was gone for like a year
and Jay and Roman or at itand then just all this was going on
that there was still this trust factorand all this thing that was going on
where Jay was expected to be steppingup. But I always had an animal
with Jimmy because he was always lookingat Jimmy and had a chip on his
shoulder because of what Jimmy was,and it was tough for Jay to go
(42:08):
ahead and have that kind of powerand control. So when Jimmy has been
the one that's always succeed and excelled, Well remember the whole story that we
had where you heard about Jay alwayssaying that Jimmy was always the one that
you know, had this accolade andthat accolade and always was to start an
athlete, always looking up to hisolder brother, to his twin brother,
(42:32):
and all that going on. Youcan continue that storyline right there. This
animosity, there's so much baked inright now to wring Jimmy a jare together
and they're just gonna have a feudwith each other. You can let that
go as along as you want,and you could leave it where Jimmy goes
back to the bloodline. Not yet, but I think you can see something
(42:55):
where Jimmy and jare at odds andthen they're gonna start facing each other.
And then what happens is you'll getto a point where Jimmy goes back to
the bloodline that falls back in withRoman, because what will happen is Roman
will accept Jimmy back because now thathe doesn't give any trust or faith to
(43:17):
Jay, he'll take Jimmy back inspite of Jay. There's about forty five
minutes right there of me making mypoint as to how this works out,
and I can see it working likethat. And this is why I don't
think there's anything with this storyline thatsays to me is broken or that it's
(43:37):
not going well, that they're bookingbadly. They're not not at all.
And as a matter of fact,the rest of the storylines they have going
on right now are working out reallywell. For what they did on RAW,
I think they did a really goodjob of setting things up. Just
on that alone, they're getting somewherewith us. Let's go into the setup
for that and By the way,the ratings went up for Raw one point
(44:01):
eighty eight million viewers, and itwas up from the previous week. Now
end the results, things were setup where Cody isn't they going up because
anyone yet. They just did alittle work around with Seth where Cody feels
like he can be anybody in theworld, and set decided to come out
and say, if that's how hefeels, let's put that feel into the
(44:22):
test. The set of the matchRelader in the night, they set things
up with Becky Lynch now with ShanaBay Yeah, well Shana Bezer now now
that Rond is out and now itlooks like we're gonna get Becky and Shana
to set up in a feud comingup. Now. Part of the thing
they wanted to go and go onhere was with Jadie mcdonnah which, sure,
(44:44):
you want to bring them into themix. I get while they're trying
to do that, but I don'treally feel like it's gonna be much of
this to really take from it.But why not, We'll see where they're
gonna go with it. They decidedto add Jady mcdonnah in, so mcdonnaugh
and Balard mentioned they had twenty yearsof knowing each other, and then you
have an issue where the judgment.They gets together with priests and baler at
(45:05):
each other's throats now talking about thebriefcase and re Ripley's trying to go ahead
and calm everything down. And thenmcdonnough comes in later in this in the
backstage moment that the briefcase has comebetween the three of them, that maybe
he should get rid of it,that Pries should get rid of it.
They did something for Elie Knight,Ellie Knight and them is you've got two
(45:30):
promo cutters, let's make it happen. Okay, it will not be seeing
punking hum Jaff, but this willbe pretty good and you can definitely go
somewhere. You could definitely make ita TV storyline if you want to go.
Ellie Knight and the Mis. Butit looks like Miss and Ellie Knight
are finally getting a chance. EllieKnight's finally getting a program since Bray Wyatt.
(45:52):
For those of you fans that aresurprised, why is it the Miss
listen? Miss is always kind oflike the starter into the mix for stars
to work their way up. It'sobvious that Miss doesn't mind working with some
of these other stars. He workedwith Gargano and Chompa right and Dexter Loomis.
You're not worried about working those kindof things. He's just there.
(46:13):
He's a lifer. That's what hedoes. So now I think what they
gave Miss, what Miss got thebill to go and talk to him about
the back and forth was great.I really enjoyed it, and I think
Miss got out of this better thanEllie Knight did. Let's just put that
(46:34):
on top of everything else, soI'll just read this out. But like
I said, Miss Ellie Knight nevershowed him the respect by introducing himself shaking
his hand when he came in.I thought it was very interesting that Ellie
and Night was able to try tosay a little bit that he is a
veteran and he's been around twenty yearshimself, because Miss brought that twenty year
(46:55):
line, says his career has beenvery personal for twenty years. Asked him
what he's been doing to twenty years, and Night hesitated to let the build
up and he said he was scratchingand clawing, looking from the outside while
the company bet on the wrong horseswith men's being one of them. Of
course, they couldn't say where Ellieand I had been working as Eli,
(47:16):
Drake Er all the other names hehad before that. Now Knights said that
the line on him was that theywere always they weren't ready to take a
chance on him yet because he's adangerous man not to be messed with.
So they're gonna try to use thatroute, saying he's a dangerous man,
all right, Miss at Nights saidKnights on his level, and Knight said,
(47:37):
to prove him wrong. And sowe'll get that eventually, and then
will they set things up in thejudgment day six man tag. Later in
the night, of course, hedid this part where Nakamura turned on seth
freaking wrongs because Sammy's aint got knockedout earlier in the night by Jennie McDonough.
(47:57):
So Jennie mcdonnah now'll be involved andgetting so if wired into certain things
fine. And then during the match, re Ripley gets on the ring apron
trying to distractor ref Priest hits cuttingthe back of the briefcase, gives the
briefcase the baler, and then thesame reason he comes in attacks Priest send
him with the announced table and thenBalor looks like he was going to use
(48:20):
the briefcase to hit Cody, andRollins made his way back in, and
again the briefcase screwed things up forBalor, and then Cody gave Balod the
crossroads. Balor once again takes anotherloss, takes another pin. So all
that right there is going on andBalord just looks really bad and this whole
thing continue to build down storyline.I'm not sure if I like Jadie mcdonnah
(48:45):
being brought into the mix of that, but he is getting himself involved,
but they're trying to make the pointthat Jadie mcdonnah is trying to make a
play to get in the judgment daygot it. I don't know if I
really care to see Janie mcdonnah inthis group, but you know, okay,
if it's the way to go andbring in a new recruit and Jenny
mcdonnough from the NST storylines get somethingfor himself in here, fine, They've
(49:07):
been wanted to do something with himfor a while, so we can see
what they're going to go that route. That's fine. I don't see much
from it, but I get whatthey're trying to do. All right,
let's go and move along into Dynamiteand what they did tonight, namely the
part where they got MJFN, AdamCole and Roderick Strong being brought in the
mix, the setup of that,Like we already know there's some kind of
(49:32):
animals with MJFN Adam Cole where thingskeep happening, like right now, there's
a whole fucking manipulation right now withm JAFF he's holding the title shot.
He gave Adam Cole title shot atall in Wembley at the end of the
month. We've still got what thiswas third week, three weeks before.
(49:52):
Now we got two more weeks beforewe get to that. And well that's
said Adam Cole is trying to keepeverything together and Roderick Strong is in the
way. Now it's interesting the Kingdomdid not get involved at all with Roderig
Strong coming out there. But RoderickStrong is causing, trying to cause a
(50:13):
wedge to break Adam Cole away fromMGF because Adam coles about they be screwed
over by MGF. Well, westill don't know what's going to happen with
the contract that Adam Cole signed westill don't know what that is with Roderick
Strong. We don't know what they'regoing to do in terms of where Adam
Cole is trying to play good andkeep up the friendship and try to keep
(50:36):
it everything peaceful between him and MJFwithout Roderg Strong screwing things up. There's
the part they're trying to work aboutall that as well. They have to
figure out where they're going to gowith that. Like that's all excellent work
and they keep figuring out. Youknow, that's a good storyline they're having.
And I didn't know they're gonna goas long as he did. And
now they want to use the Ringof Monter Tag Team titles. I'm a
(50:57):
little bit surprised that they're going togo and let Asie Open and MGF Adam
Cole do the pre show at WembleyStadium go zero hour and then wrestle for
the world title later on the night. That that's like that's an overkill,
But I guess I get what they'redoing it that's fine, but I'm surprised
they want to go that route andthey're gonna go that right on. Nevertheless,
(51:19):
but I liked that storyline too.I don't have a problem with that
either. And now there's the animositywith Cole and Strong because roder Struck came
out and told Cole, I can'tbelieve you want to win the title to
MJF, you're not you and notyour real friend me. MGF tells Strong
he's tired of him and his jealousy, and Strong tells Cole the Keendom was
right about you and you're whatever myfriend. Oh no, exhul be the
Keenom did come out. I didn'tsee that part, and they did hug
(51:40):
Strong, and then Cole pushed MJFand said I'm your friend, but Strong
as my friend. Also MGF gettingmad, and then he lets it slide.
They're just building it up because obviouslyAdam Cole wants to keep the friendship
up until he gets a title shotfor whatever reason, and JFF offered a
title shot after all, at thebiggest stage. So there's a lot of
(52:05):
chicanery is gonna happen as a result, and you don't know where we're gonna
go with it. But I stillthink it's we don't know, and some
people are always giving the animals toAdam Cole is going to screw over MJFF.
I still think it's MGF. It'sstill gonna go and screw things over,
just because that's the way it is. But it's quite a bit of
manipulation going on right now to makethat happen. That's fascinating. I really
(52:30):
am enjoying all that we're doing agood job with all together. So they're
finding out that what November eighteenth,a Saturday, aw Full Gear will be
at the Kia Forem in Los Angeles, but that has not been confirmed.
But Tony Kahn has also said thathe doesn't want book shows on Sundays due
to the NFL. So we don'tknow if Collison is going to happen or
(52:51):
not as it's expected. But we'llfigure all that out soon enough. So
there's a lot more to come.We got so much more coming up at
the end of the month to setup for. We're gonna work about that
soon enough. But right now,I hope I'm in my argument very clear.
Things are going well right now withwrestling. It really is. I've
(53:12):
been enjoying it a lot. Iknow there's some other people that are in
the business of not saying the sameway, but it doesn't matter to mean,

the worldwide leader of podcasting excellence,the king of podcasts Radio Network probably presents
(00:24):
the Wrestling Is Real podcast because wrestlingdeeps us. We're gonna talk Bloodline tonight
here on the program. So let'sget started and let's go and bring up
what happened? A recap from SummerSlamand the bloodline, Brother liber Trail,
(00:45):
Oh gos Glass, the raid isover? Who the hell? What the
hell? Aw? You'll fight atech nin jermy? What the hell?
(01:06):
Let you go? Just think?Listen to that crowd response. Why,
(01:37):
keep in mind, you saw thatstoryline unveil itself at Summer Slam, and
there were people over the weekend andgoing into this week I thought that the
storyline is now fucked up. Whywhat would make you think that what they
did right there was so bad?Well, listen, I understand some of
the fans out there and why theywould be a little bit complaining about it,
(02:00):
of course, and there are someof my fellow podcast Wrestling Brother,
and they're going to go ahead andtake the opportunity to go ahead and not
just praise the bloodline storyline because ofwhat it is. Okay, they're not
going to go ahead and kiss ass, fine, but they're also going to
just play Devil's advocate just for thesake of clicks. Okay, go for
it, have at it. Itdoesn't matter to me. What I know
(02:22):
is when I look at this here, I'm saying to myself, O,
Kate. So they decided to gothis route, and I'm like, all
right, if you're in old schoolfan of storytelling and dramas and series where
you have this kind of issue goingalong, Okay, well, I'm used
to this kind of thing, thelong drawn out storyline to get to the
(02:45):
payoff. But we never get toa payoff. It just continues to go
on and on, and for somepeople this might be droning because they're sitting
himself, well, there doesn't makeany sense here. After all the issues
where Jay and Jimmy got together,and then it was the eventual tension with
Sammy Zen in the picture. Weknow that, and then we get to
(03:05):
hear and then the whole swerve ofJayusa being thought to be the upcoming tribal
chief, the main event, theone that was being pegged by Roman Reins
to be the successor. But Jimmy'sthe one that screws the opportunity for Jimmy
for Jayuso to come in. Andwe talked about this on the post show.
I did want kipa podcasts dot comyou can find the episode. I
(03:30):
thought the storytelling was still very welldone. And let me just put it
to you like this. For somepeople that just think that the storylines is
going to be cutting dry, thisis a family storyline. And in a
family storyline, family can go aheadand waiver one side to the other.
As we already saw the Usos aftergetting screwed over by Roman Reigns and being
(03:53):
screwed over by their younger brother SoloZakoa, we're still able to go and
try to make amends. There weretrying to a matter of fact, Tribal
Court was still trying to keep thefamilly together. Believe it or not,
wasn't gonna happen. Roman wouldn't doanything less and keep control. And then
(04:14):
with that said, Jimmy already havingthe animosity and that was kind of played
up until Jimmy and Jay betrayed Romanand the bloodlines civil war came to be.
We thought that Jimmy and Jay wereon lockstep, but at the tribal
Court we saw that Jay got hurtbetween Jimmy got hurt, and then Jay
went on and mid and went intothe tribal combat match. But Jimmy doesn't
(04:42):
want to see this play out.And now the one thing that some of
the Wrestling Dirt sheets have done isthey're now trying to pontificate where did the
storyline go next? What are thereasons that we're gonna find on SmackDown why
Jimmy USO did what he did.This is not a storyline that's broken.
This is not a storyline that's notgoing in a direction that doesn't make sense.
You can make it makes sense.It's just some people don't like the
(05:03):
suspense and saying okay, they wantto have the beginning and end, and
they don't like that this is goingon for so long. For some people,
they might be getting impatient, theymight be getting indignant, and they're
saying, okay, well, I'mtired of this. Let's move along with
this. We're tired of Roman holdingon to the belt. We're tired of
Roman holding on the story of thebloodline and holding the whole family hostage,
(05:25):
and that we need to see apayoff. Okay, Cody, you didn't
let him win the belt at WrestleMania. Jay goes after the belt, can't
win a Summer Slam. What next? I get it. I'm in the
MIoD of watching Dallas. I thinkI've said this on this program. If
I haven't, I said on otherpodcasts. But I've been watching the series
Dallas, three hundred and fifty sevenepisodes. It's an undertaking and right now
(05:47):
at season thirteen, saves in thirteenof fourteen, and at this moment,
it's evolving a family, the Ewings, Jr. And Bobby. Maybe some
of the older fans might understand whatI'm talking about. All I'm gonna say
is that it's been It's a familythat is all raised up in power.
There's one good son is very honestand very forthcoming, but also it can
(06:11):
have a mean streak and also cannot be had when he is focused.
The other brothers, the older brotherJr. Who is absolutely ruthless and vile
and villainous, and you know itdoesn't give a shit. He'll get anything
and take anything that he wants,and he doesn't care who he screws over
(06:31):
or who he destroys in his path. It's like Roman reigns right now,
and the ewings are like Bobby andRay raise the stepson or the stepbrother in
this crew, or Gary, whichis the other brother that's not part of
the doll storyline. All I'm sayingis that there are three sons and one
stepson, one stepbrother, three brothers, one stepbrother, and the father raised
(06:59):
them up to be strong and toughand don't take any ship, and be
successful and be powerful, and youknow, grew them to a certain liking.
And so throughout the series Murmur,it's the thirteen seasons. I'm watching
out fourteen. It's over fourteen years, and throughout the series there are in
plenty of times where things happen thatcause the brothers to fall apart and break
(07:24):
off and fight each other, onlyto make amends and patch things up because
at the end of the day they'restill family. Like right now, I'm
looking with the fact that we hadto deal with We're at the comment of
the storyline right now, and I'mwatching on Dallas. Is that Jr.
And Bobby we're finally back on thesame page. And Jr. Got as
(07:46):
good grace as to work back inthe family company. Okay, but now
the Jr's back in the family company, he's starting to go back to his
old tricks wheeling, a dealing,styling and profiling and just screwing people over.
Okay, when things you're actually goinggood for him, but they can't
let things be let alone. He'sa villain. He's a bad guy,
but he's a likable bad guy.And people love Jr. Union because that
(08:09):
guy was just was just tough,kind of have a Rick Flair kind of
mystique to him, if you wanta wrestling similarity. So anyway, what's
going on here with you? Soit's for them to split and then come
back together. This can happen.And we already kind of had this animosity
(08:31):
before at the beginning of twenty twentywhen Jamie got hurt and what about the
other times when you know, youcan always use the parts where Jimmy always
gotten some of in trouble. There'sa lot of things you could use here
to play up the storyline right now. There's a lot of ways they can
work through this. This is notlike I honestly think one number one that
(08:52):
the storyline has been made and they'renot doing this blindly without a reason why.
Okay, the direction of the storylinecannot be You might be confused and
you might say what are they doingand you're upset about it, but it's
not going to stop you from watchingthe storyline. It's just another wrinkle.
(09:15):
Okay, they have to keep doingthis the storyline. We'll have an ultimate
end. I know that's going tohappen someday. Right now, they already
culminated with Cody and Brock finishing upa three month feud. So after WrestleMania,
the fact that Cody and Brock facedeach other and they finally got to
the amend and Brock walks away andsays, okay, well you're the better
(09:39):
man tonight and you beat me twoout of three times, so normal animosity
with Brock and Cody. It's done. Cody isn't able to go and move
forward if he wants to towards thatundisputed universal title. If we're going to
get to that point, but they'reon two different brands. We'd have to
figure out how that's gonna work.But anyway, Cody, right, I
(10:01):
could go after the World heavyweight title. I don't think he's going to do
that. There's too much going onright now with Seth freaking Rollins to go
with that. But I think eventuallywe'll get to that point. And with
Jimmy and j this ongoing storyline andthe fact that this really clouds up anything
else going on with Roman reigns.I mean, he's defending the title very
limited and continues to rack up daysand rack up the one of the longest
(10:26):
title rains in this generation, thelongest title rain of this generation. And
then pretty soon he's gonna starting magicup with records with other top level main
eventors in the history of this company. That's gonna be coming up soon.
So now we move along here,And there was something to be said,
(10:52):
and I'm taking from Bleacher Reporter talkingabout that this could be a predictable result
that could still be peak entertainment.Jimmy was so close, or would be
Jay was so close and then anotherscrewjob. Just didn't know it would be
Jimmy Rains winning seemed inevitable, theysaid, But Jimmy betraying Jay certainly wasn't.
(11:16):
Fans were more plugged than ever tothe business, and modern times understand
doesn't have much incentive to end theTravel Chiefs run at a non Wrestlemany event,
and especially not the Jay There's toomuch meat and less on the bone
beat a showdown Lestil Sakoa the Rock, or an eventual loss to Cody Rhodes.
Right, they still could play offthat day. Maybe the Rock will
have that moment. Well, hefinally will get the work at WrestleMania,
(11:37):
and he will be the face comingin to avenge for the Family against the
travel chief That match sells itself oncethat match is booked. Let me put
it like this, if people thoughtit was a good idea for that match
to happen in Hollywood last year orthis year for WrestleMania, you're wrong.
(11:58):
Cody was the right choice for thistime around. If we want to get
to The Rock coming up here nextyear in Philadelphia, yes, that would
be a hell of a match.And if you could get The Rock to
come back to do this and worka long storyline with occasional appearances, maybe
(12:22):
even have Cody take on the Rockor something in a tag team match.
Is something that we could have somethinghere to work it out. I loved
that there's a lot left now.Bleacher Report says that the storytelling occurred in
a fun way with Jimmy getting involvedagain and fans could reasonably expected he would
(12:45):
be a non factor in the equationof the main event. Now. The
Bleacher Report rider here, Chris roll. He makes the point and says that
the Seeds have been there almost weeklybecause Paul has been jabbing and barbing and
blaming Jay for Jimmy's injury. They'vemade that clear, and they were consistent
about that. They kept hitting thathome. His commentary about Jimmy losing everything
(13:09):
if he happens the wind seems worthbringing up too, right, because there's
the other part where you know Jimmywould have wanted the same thing that Jay
was going after as well. Butthey're still brothers. They can't share that
that tribal chieftain, they can't sharethat belt. So they said, the
motive for Jimmy from a storytelling perspective, doesn't have to be complicated. He's
(13:33):
jealous of his brother, which thatworks and makes sense for me as a
tag team. They both beat Romanreigns. Recently, he's trusted it with
another injury, thinks he could havedone the match better. Maybe he didn't
want to see his twin brother becomethe tribal chief with the wind, only
to watch helplessly as it corrupted Janenext. Right, whatever the reason,
(13:56):
the swerved opens the tons of fundoors. Ones can face off each other
one on one with a strong storyline, dentifications, and heavy fan investment.
Right, you split this off intoanother storyline and there you go. Man
often running Jimmy and Jay and Romanwill relish in these brothers feuding with each
other, the sibling rivalry and Soloalso being brought into the mix. Like
(14:18):
that would work for me too.Whatever this reason, the latest werve opens
these doors. Now payback. Theycould stretches to a Mania and could have
a triple tret with ros Rains aSaka at a pay per view like fast
Lane that went entertained. Like,there's a lot of ways they can go
with this. There's no shortage rightnow now to keep up the storyline Trump
(14:39):
going from bloodlines civil war to travelcombat. That's gonna be tough not to
figure out how they're gonna get there. So the goal is for Roman Rains
as a string along until the nextMania. Well, right now, he's
got a mini beef with Solo afteran accident the hitting with a spear Saturday
night at disrupting their chemistry, sothat has to get sort of out.
(15:00):
So there's friction there we haven't talkedabout with Solo and Roman, which it's
already bad enough that Solo abandoned hisbrothers to pledge allegiance and acknowledgement to Roman
reigns, and maybe Jimmy gets awhole chance at one on one two.
There's that pesky Paul Hayman who couldturn at any moment, and that Paul
(15:22):
Hayman during the post match pressor saidthat this thing is still in the early
goings is the only viable option toevery top has run with brock Lester,
and he makes a point, we'restill in the bottom of the third.
Well, actually, I'm gonna playthis clip. I want to go in
here what Paul Hayman says and justtry to interpret what he's trying to say
off of this, because you knowhe's involved in the storyline here. It
(15:45):
is bottom third, I mean,but just friguring this stuff out. We
haven't even we haven't even hit ourstride. Yet there there's this. If
(16:06):
you want to take the arrogant approach, I'm sure Paul of that will tell
you all the box office records thathave been smashed. And every Friday night
when we show up at SmackDown,we're always told, this is the largest
gate of this, and this isthe largest gate of that. This is
the largess premium live effective miss isthe largest WrestleMania. Okay, we can,
(16:26):
we can, we can siter andand point to what really drope all
of this, and that's quite clearlythe bloodline. And when I see the
bloodline nine essentially being the tribal chiefRoman Rings. But we're just figuring this
out. There's so much more tolearn. There's so much more for us
to grasp. There's so much morefor us to master. It's a craft
(16:48):
and and and and it's and it'sand it's an evolving craft. It's it's
like mixed martial arts. If it'sif someone sits there into an arm,
I'm another nineteenth dan black belt injiu jitsu, they're going to get shoked
out the next week. Because it'san ever evolving sport, and this is
an ever evolving form of entertainment.And if you sit there and you think,
like, man, we drot this, this is it. Okay,
(17:10):
we're gonna we're cruising now all inWrestleMania. We're gonna be replaced, and
we should be. If you don'tcome at this with the greatest ambitions to
be much better tomorrow than you aretoday and much better to day so now
than you are tomorrow, then you'reyou're not here to be the greatest of
all time and now. So Pauldoesn't want to give up too much saying
(17:34):
that we're a third of the storylinein basically because if you're using a baseball
scenario, bottom of the third,Yeah, six more innings to go.
I don't know how long this isgoing to be, but they could easily
go. I'm not kidding. Ithink they could go maybe two more years
with us. We could get toa five year reign with Roman reigns.
(17:56):
I mean, what else is there. This is where I always taw about
the fact that they have to buildup their stars to be at the level
of Roman Rains. Maybe that's notpossible because maybe Roman Rains takes up so
much air in the entire company thatno one else is going to be able
to be booked or every of thechance to book themselves to a level that
they could be that. Now,of course there's gonna be some stars that
(18:18):
people are gonna want to see thatmaybe they can get somewhere up to that
level. But remember, you haveall those years of Roman Rains that you
spent on him to get him wherehe is now, and all the other
ones that went through n XT thatwere brought in from other organizations, and
right now you're at a level oflike, well, you got everybody that
you have, and all these olderstars have been around. There's not anybody
younger that's going to come right upor anybody else from another organization that's going
(18:41):
to build up to where they couldbe at the level. But I mean,
I still think that if you hadsomebody over on the SmackDown that you
could bring in that could be athorn in the side of Roman Rains would
be nice. I think that wouldcomplete everything that Roman not only has to
(19:02):
deal with the USOS now he hasthis issue with SOLO. I think having
that triumvirate, that that third thingto worry about would be nice to have
as well. That's where I'm comingfrom. Both all this because that was
the part that also worked well becauseJimmy and Jay were kind of a odds
a little bit, and then saysAman was brought into the mix, there's
(19:23):
that other thing. We're good.Then Cody got brought in to the mix.
There's a whole lot going on atthe same time where we need to
see Roman Rains being attacked on allends in all different directions, and I
think we can get to that point. I just don't know where it's going
to be. So this story fromChris Rolling makes the point. You remember
(19:51):
the days when brock Closer had atime wouldn't even show up on a weekly
show, or when top titles wouldn'tget defended, or when Raw didn't even
have one that hits multiple long questto Buy because it's entertaining, is dripping
with long form storytelling, and it'sconsistent in those things. So they're Philly
programming between now and the next mediawe're in the off season. By the
way, we haven't talked much aboutthe off season or made that point because
(20:12):
we're not upset right now. I'mnot in a bad place. It's one
of the very rare times I cango into the off season right now,
and I'm fucking excited. I justwent on and talked about wrestling with my
friend Lou Pate on radio this weekterrestri He was broadcasting this week out of
(20:32):
Bridgeport, Connecticut, and I talkedabout all that, and you know,
I don't want to I'm not gonnaplay the cliff here, but I put
it on my broadcasters podcast channel ifyou want to take a look at it
for yourself. I talked about thatand how much of other things in the
media, So you can look forthat right now King of Podcasts dot com.
It's the latest broadcasters podcast right now. Go ahead and download and take
a listen for yourself. Talk aboutfirst fifteen twenty minutes about wresting. I'll
(20:56):
hope you'll check that out. Now. What I want to think about next
is where else can they go inthis whole route? When I try to
think about what they've done so farand from all the times I have discussed
the bloodline here on this program andwhat they've done so far, the betrayal
(21:18):
part. Every time works, Ikeep enjoying it, and I'm trying to
think to myself, where else dowe go now now that we're at this
point where Jimmy and Jay are atodds And that's what I want to figure
out, because right now, theone thing is for sure, Roman Rains
(21:41):
is not safe. He might usedto be holding onto that belt, but
the bloodline is broken right now,and I'm wondering if this is something where
Jimmy USO is going to work hisway back into defold. That's the question
nobody's asking yet. Is Jimmy gonnago back to Roman? Is Jimmy going
to be convinced by Roman to goback? And I think with the celebration
(22:04):
for Roman reigns on Friday, Ithink that's what happens. I think Jimmy's
gonna fall back in with Roman andJay will be will be odd man out.
And you know why Jacob be oddman out because he allowed Sammy Zane
to be in the mix. Andthat could be also something that's not forgivable
at all. She could go thatroute. I don't think it's a bad
(22:29):
idea, and I think that's whereyou can go if you want to go
that direction. I just don't knowwhere you go next to get there.
That's why I want to find thepart and hopefully we get to that point
because The other part we've got toremember is that every time we started seeing
(22:52):
going on with things were happening withthe USO's right before they were trade Roman,
they both were not exactly on thesame page. Let's remember that part
now. I want to go aheadand go back to Night A Champions and
play a clip back from when wesaw Roman ultimately betrayed by both usos.
Remember that both users were not inthe same page. Remember the dialogue that
(23:17):
Jimmy and j had together before theygot on the same page. So let's
go back to that part again andjust make sure we get that clear.
Just focus on the part of whatJimmy and Jay say to each other.
Oh oh okay one no boy atthe statement, get out of my room.
(23:38):
Jimmy, just tell me what didyou do that? Because been funning
(23:59):
in there. Now remember that partdusk Jay USO saying we got to be
better than that. Already, weremember there was still things that were going
on where things were not on thesame page. Remember that part, and
then we can see you on andthen Jay fall suit. I'm doing what
(24:30):
you said it done a long timeago. Now remember that part. Jimmy
is upset because Jay's always been theweaker side because Jay let a lot of
things happen. We can go backand call back this right here, And
so Jimmy has always felt like hecould have handled things better to where everything
(24:52):
to happen with the Bloodline couldn't havecome to this because jusso could have kept
Roman in Lyne, but he didn't. And Roman and Jay take on each
other, and Jay thought he wasgonna go make that win, but Jimmy's
not gonna allow that to happen.Remember that part. That's the part everybody's
gonna understand that Jimmy always feels likehe was the one that could handle everything.
(25:14):
Oh and remember Jay always had thepoem we're gonna bring that clip up
to about Jay always feeling like healways had to live up the Jimmy and
his expectations. Back to the clip, So there was that part. Now
(25:37):
let's play something else. Now we'regonna go back to SmackDown June sixteenth,
So this is again prior to Moneythe Bank, two weeks before Bloodline Civil
War. Just remember some of thestoryline bits that we got here that created
the riff between Jimmy and Jane.And this is where the Paul him is
going after Jaluso and already given thewhole thing, then the and all this
(26:00):
and that trying to already split upJimmy and Jay in the process. I'm
sorry, I'm sorry I told youthe truth last week. I'm sorry I
was right last week. I'm sorryyour brother Jimmy kicked you in the face
(26:22):
last week and cost you the opportunityto become the next United States Heavyweight Champion.
Do you remember that part? Now, I'll be important to you,
but that is something to remember.There was already the animosity. Because of
that, Jamison could have beaten Austintheory become US champion, but that didn't
happen. Back to the clip,now you know it was intentional. Jimmy
(26:47):
doesn't miss. He has the mostaccurate kick next to yours in all of
WWE. He meant to kick thetribal chief in the face at Night of
Champions, and he meant to kickyou in the face last week. Now
think about this. So if youwanted Jay to be in line with what
(27:07):
was going on, see part ofit is we're kind of in a quandary
right now because Jimmy didn't attack.I am all right, Jimmy did not
attack Roman or solo. And ifJay were to fallow along with what's being
said here, then Jay, whowas already being already being mentioned, to
go ahead like be in line withRoman. Okay, does Jay feel like
(27:33):
he might go back to Roman nowbecause of what Jimmy did? I don't
think it sounds like I mean,it couldn't make sense. You could make
it make sense. I think anygood storyteller or any person in a writer's
room that's on strike right now.Unfortunately, I hope those guys getting themselves
back on the negotiating sianths right now. We're in one hundred one days of
the writers strike. I'll talk aboutthat on the Broadcasters podcast tomorrow anyway,
(27:56):
tangent, but you can make thestory that either Jimmy or Jay could go
back to Roman and return back tothe bloodline with one of the brothers not
there. The twins can be split, But you can make a case that
either one of them could go backback to Paul jealousy and beyond display to
(28:22):
humiliate, an embarrass and victimise hisown twin brother in front of the entire
world. Jay, you don't deservethat, and for that that Jay,
I'm sorry, So you can stillgo along with that, and you can
(28:44):
still sit to yourself. Man,there's something there that we could see you
along right in this whole time,Jay was the one being courted to split
off from Jimmy. Jay was theone getting the chance to during the tribal
court be the one to go afterthe tribal chief. For the tribal chief
(29:04):
though, like Jay was budding alot off to get that shot. So
you could take that right there andalso take into consideration. Let's go on
there later in the night when Romanstalking to Jay and the ring and Jimmy
shows up, let's go to thatpart. And I told you this before.
The problem is your brother. Iknow. I've been with you my
(29:33):
whole lives. You're inseparable, that'swhat it is. You're twins. But
you have to understand, yo yo. I remember it's been for a while,
It had been for a while thatJimmy's coming in and outside the problem
(29:56):
it's our cousin. Yeah, let'sge Jimmy always been outspoken. Let's get
right to it. Those you sayyou're a leader, and you say he
grew me you, but in realityhe's sousing you bruh, Yeah, look
at me, You actually believe thisgarbage that's coming out of his mouth?
(30:22):
Look at mules, do you believethis hold of me? Even there in
(30:45):
the whole animosity here, Man,they weren't doing this ten years ago.
Hell, it's a ten years justto get y'all in WrestleMania. It since
you've been with me. You mayhave been at every single one. He's
an anchor. I'm the wings.I lift you up, he drags you
(31:07):
down. You have a great futurein front of you. I told you
you're the next in line, You'rethe successor. You're the next tribal chief.
And guess what, you can't bea tribal chief in a twin at
the same time. Now, youtake that right there, and that animosity
(31:30):
has been the scenes that were plantedtwo months ago, almost two months ago,
long term storytelling coming back to bite. All of this right here can
be used as fodder, as cannonfodder for Jimmy right now to explain his
actions and why he did not allow. By the way, let me put
(31:52):
this point across to we all understandthat with what happened with Jay, he
did have after everything was said anddone, had Roman in the middle of
the ring, pinned. He wasready to go in that count was ready
to go. Roman was pinned againthe second time that Jay was about to
(32:14):
good and pin Roman, only forthe match to only forts to not happen
because Jimmy stopped it. Jake gotthe pin at Bloodline Civil War, he
was about to pin him and gotthe near fall on a Roman at SummerSlam.
So now we're at this point orit's actually just before money the bank,
(32:35):
not a chance, this was moneyin the bank. Excuse me,
I don't know why I kept sellingthat, but that's money to bank.
It was before that. And thenwe get to this point and all this
planted right here can give you allthe division that you need as to why
Jimmy and Jay are at odds witheach other and where things will go.
(33:00):
And the truth is too. Youhave to keep in mind as well,
how many times did Jay get screwedover? Because wasn't it Jay that also
they also got the shot in theBronx. You know, he got the
cheap shot both times. Remember,Jimmy's the one that's gotten all this here.
Jimmy's made a lot of mistakes inthe eyes of the bloodline in Jimmy's
(33:22):
eyes, in Roman's eyes, inSolo's eyes. What I can see happening
is Jimmy could fall back in linewith the blood line again because Jimmy will
be made the next predecessor to thetribal chief, and that Jay will be
the outcast, the black sheep ofthe family. And then Jay can actually
(33:45):
then move on and just be solonot solo so to go. I'm talking
about a solos wrestler. He couldbe a singles wrestler and dominate main of
Nji Uso. Man, that wouldbe awesome, and you had that split
go on for a while, Butthen you know what you'll get in this
storyline, aside from Roman eventually losingthat belt to someone like Cody Rhodes.
(34:14):
Then we get to play the partwhich was we had with Kevin Owens and
Simysine earlier this year where they patchedthings up and got back together. What
about if we had the USO's ateach other's throats because of what Roman's done
to this family, and Jimmy andJay down the line reconcile and that moment
(34:40):
happens, Man, that will bea moment, like crazy, another storyline
another break off of the storyline intoanother program, because this does always work
well if the bloodline has multiple storylinesin action. So Roman's gonna have his
own storyline again with whoever's gonna behis next opponent, is next adversary,
(35:01):
the next person that's gonna be inline as a contender to take that belt
off of him. And then whenit comes to the USOS, they're gonna
be all thrown storyline right now anyways, So think about all this here and
where it goes, because the bloodlinestoryline works best when they have multiple storylines
in place. So when they hadUSO's versus Zane and Owens and the tag
(35:28):
titles are on the line, andthen you have Roman going up against Cody
or whoever else you have, thatmade for a lot of fun because that's
multiple storylines right there. And thenyou think about the same thing to do
with Judgment Day. There's multiple storylineswith that too. The one thing they're
missing out on, which I've beenseeing some conversations about Ray Ripley's now one
(35:52):
hundred days is champion one hundred thirtydays a champion, and she hasn't defended
the belt much and she hasn't donemuch with the Belt at all. And
it's true, Riah Ripley needs tohave a storyline where there's somebody going up
against her. She needs to havea program for her title that has to
be incorporated somewhere. Meanwhile, yougot Finn and Damien at odds with each
other again and Dominic as a NorthAmerican title, and you know Finn's dealing
(36:19):
with Seth and there's just so muchgoing on. You could do a lot
more with everything. I think it'sjust something that you create multiple storylines to
build this out and then we getto the point of where we're gonna be
soon enough. Now, let's rememberhow things were when we got to the
Trouble Court of Roman Reigns a monthago, and remember there's always been seeds
(36:45):
that happened. Actually, I'm notgonna go to TB Traubal Court yet.
We'll get it that later. ButI just want to get back to a
couple more clips just to finish myargument and make my point. Remember when
Chuso and Roman Rains were at eachother's throats, and that first time that
jay Usso went after the Belt.You know, Roman Rains made a promise,
(37:10):
made a threat. And this iswhen they were still in the thunder.
Don't remember September twenty five, twentytwenty smack Down. So Rumin Rains
attacks j Uso and then just listento what Rumin Rains says once he has
Jusso basically unconscious for once, Jausowants to know what he's truly made of
(37:31):
two nights at two nights for jusSo to realize his dream, or for
Roman Rains sign oh my God Rainswith a super bad punch. I don't
(37:52):
just feed my kids for this title. I don't just bet your kids with
this title. I be with thistitle. I'm thinking needs me the happiest
title. Can you want to takeit from me? You're gonna take your
pay day, You're gonna take theass swooping that comes with it, but
(38:15):
you will never take this title andyou will never take my voice at the
head of the table. Remember thatpart that September twenty twenty. We're going
back that far and we can goback that far in the storyline. Of
course we can't and it will work. What if this was the whole scheme
(38:39):
for Jimmy to go back anyways?Like I mean it's still Jimmy and Roman
at each other's shrows. Because rememberJimmy was you know, quite a few
times was injured or was taken out. Like what if this was a whole
plan? Can we go to thatpoint? I mean, like some of
(38:59):
the fact that you know, theWorld Tag Team Titles they lost it,
and I'm trying to remember, wasit always Jay was the one that was
the reason they lost in certain momentsand things had happened. Let think about
that part. Let's step forward nowJune twenty twenty one where the USS got
(39:19):
heated with each other, and thisis when Jimmy was on the outs right
now, he was, you know, not doing well, and so Jimmy
and Jay at each other's strokes.Let's go to this part. What's up?
Bright? Who was that they holdup us? Let me ask a
song. Do you really think wecould have won the Tag Team titles?
(39:39):
Answer meals? Do you think wecould have won the damn tappies shits?
Yeah? Right? Yeah, soyou did. You weren't mad when we
got did you right? You wereall set? You know what it was?
(40:00):
They can't be like this no more. You hit me. It can't
go down like it's when I askedyou to go with me because you're froze.
You froze on me. I neededyou. You my brother do my
family could do my twin. Youknow what you want to talk about?
(40:27):
Family disgrace. Roman is disgracing ourfamily right now. And what do you
want me to do? You wantto be that boy? Oh year,
my lord Teers went to travel withCheeth Boos. I'm stuck in the middle
of this and I don't know howto get out of me. What you
want me to do? If Romanwant to see me, I'll be an
(40:55):
all locker room. Anyways, theanimosity between them was always built up,
and Roman always stirred that ship up. So they can continue to go with
this route, and there's not muchshows to can be said about it.
There's plenty of other moments I couldplay where they had animosity. I'll keep
(41:21):
in mind as well that all thathappened before Sammy's ain't gotten brought into the
mix, which then that animosity thatwas going on in twenty twenty and twenty
twenty one. Okay, people mighthave forgotten that was going on. Remember
this is a three year storyline.We're talking about three plus years so we
might not remember, some people mightnot remember how much animosity that Jimmy and
(41:43):
Jay had with each other, becauseremember Jimmy was gone for like a year
and Jay and Roman or at itand then just all this was going on
that there was still this trust factorand all this thing that was going on
where Jay was expected to be steppingup. But I always had an animal
with Jimmy because he was always lookingat Jimmy and had a chip on his
shoulder because of what Jimmy was,and it was tough for Jay to go
(42:08):
ahead and have that kind of powerand control. So when Jimmy has been
the one that's always succeed and excelled, Well remember the whole story that we
had where you heard about Jay alwayssaying that Jimmy was always the one that
you know, had this accolade andthat accolade and always was to start an
athlete, always looking up to hisolder brother, to his twin brother,
(42:32):
and all that going on. Youcan continue that storyline right there. This
animosity, there's so much baked inright now to wring Jimmy a jare together
and they're just gonna have a feudwith each other. You can let that
go as along as you want,and you could leave it where Jimmy goes
back to the bloodline. Not yet, but I think you can see something
(42:55):
where Jimmy and jare at odds andthen they're gonna start facing each other.
And then what happens is you'll getto a point where Jimmy goes back to
the bloodline that falls back in withRoman, because what will happen is Roman
will accept Jimmy back because now thathe doesn't give any trust or faith to
(43:17):
Jay, he'll take Jimmy back inspite of Jay. There's about forty five
minutes right there of me making mypoint as to how this works out,
and I can see it working likethat. And this is why I don't
think there's anything with this storyline thatsays to me is broken or that it's
(43:37):
not going well, that they're bookingbadly. They're not not at all.
And as a matter of fact,the rest of the storylines they have going
on right now are working out reallywell. For what they did on RAW,
I think they did a really goodjob of setting things up. Just
on that alone, they're getting somewherewith us. Let's go into the setup
for that and By the way,the ratings went up for Raw one point
(44:01):
eighty eight million viewers, and itwas up from the previous week. Now
end the results, things were setup where Cody isn't they going up because
anyone yet. They just did alittle work around with Seth where Cody feels
like he can be anybody in theworld, and set decided to come out
and say, if that's how hefeels, let's put that feel into the
(44:22):
test. The set of the matchRelader in the night, they set things
up with Becky Lynch now with ShanaBay Yeah, well Shana Bezer now now
that Rond is out and now itlooks like we're gonna get Becky and Shana
to set up in a feud comingup. Now. Part of the thing
they wanted to go and go onhere was with Jadie mcdonnah which, sure,
(44:44):
you want to bring them into themix. I get while they're trying
to do that, but I don'treally feel like it's gonna be much of
this to really take from it.But why not, We'll see where they're
gonna go with it. They decidedto add Jady mcdonnah in, so mcdonnaugh
and Balard mentioned they had twenty yearsof knowing each other, and then you
have an issue where the judgment.They gets together with priests and baler at
(45:05):
each other's throats now talking about thebriefcase and re Ripley's trying to go ahead
and calm everything down. And thenmcdonnough comes in later in this in the
backstage moment that the briefcase has comebetween the three of them, that maybe
he should get rid of it,that Pries should get rid of it.
They did something for Elie Knight,Ellie Knight and them is you've got two
(45:30):
promo cutters, let's make it happen. Okay, it will not be seeing
punking hum Jaff, but this willbe pretty good and you can definitely go
somewhere. You could definitely make ita TV storyline if you want to go.
Ellie Knight and the Mis. Butit looks like Miss and Ellie Knight
are finally getting a chance. EllieKnight's finally getting a program since Bray Wyatt.
(45:52):
For those of you fans that aresurprised, why is it the Miss
listen? Miss is always kind oflike the starter into the mix for stars
to work their way up. It'sobvious that Miss doesn't mind working with some
of these other stars. He workedwith Gargano and Chompa right and Dexter Loomis.
You're not worried about working those kindof things. He's just there.
(46:13):
He's a lifer. That's what hedoes. So now I think what they
gave Miss, what Miss got thebill to go and talk to him about
the back and forth was great.I really enjoyed it, and I think
Miss got out of this better thanEllie Knight did. Let's just put that
(46:34):
on top of everything else, soI'll just read this out. But like
I said, Miss Ellie Knight nevershowed him the respect by introducing himself shaking
his hand when he came in.I thought it was very interesting that Ellie
and Night was able to try tosay a little bit that he is a
veteran and he's been around twenty yearshimself, because Miss brought that twenty year
(46:55):
line, says his career has beenvery personal for twenty years. Asked him
what he's been doing to twenty years, and Night hesitated to let the build
up and he said he was scratchingand clawing, looking from the outside while
the company bet on the wrong horseswith men's being one of them. Of
course, they couldn't say where Ellieand I had been working as Eli,
(47:16):
Drake Er all the other names hehad before that. Now Knights said that
the line on him was that theywere always they weren't ready to take a
chance on him yet because he's adangerous man not to be messed with.
So they're gonna try to use thatroute, saying he's a dangerous man,
all right, Miss at Nights saidKnights on his level, and Knight said,
(47:37):
to prove him wrong. And sowe'll get that eventually, and then
will they set things up in thejudgment day six man tag. Later in
the night, of course, hedid this part where Nakamura turned on seth
freaking wrongs because Sammy's aint got knockedout earlier in the night by Jennie McDonough.
(47:57):
So Jennie mcdonnah now'll be involved andgetting so if wired into certain things
fine. And then during the match, re Ripley gets on the ring apron
trying to distractor ref Priest hits cuttingthe back of the briefcase, gives the
briefcase the baler, and then thesame reason he comes in attacks Priest send
him with the announced table and thenBalor looks like he was going to use
(48:20):
the briefcase to hit Cody, andRollins made his way back in, and
again the briefcase screwed things up forBalor, and then Cody gave Balod the
crossroads. Balor once again takes anotherloss, takes another pin. So all
that right there is going on andBalord just looks really bad and this whole
thing continue to build down storyline.I'm not sure if I like Jadie mcdonnah
(48:45):
being brought into the mix of that, but he is getting himself involved,
but they're trying to make the pointthat Jadie mcdonnah is trying to make a
play to get in the judgment daygot it. I don't know if I
really care to see Janie mcdonnah inthis group, but you know, okay,
if it's the way to go andbring in a new recruit and Jenny
mcdonnough from the NST storylines get somethingfor himself in here, fine, They've
(49:07):
been wanted to do something with himfor a while, so we can see
what they're going to go that route. That's fine. I don't see much
from it, but I get whatthey're trying to do. All right,
let's go and move along into Dynamiteand what they did tonight, namely the
part where they got MJFN, AdamCole and Roderick Strong being brought in the
mix, the setup of that,Like we already know there's some kind of
(49:32):
animals with MJFN Adam Cole where thingskeep happening, like right now, there's
a whole fucking manipulation right now withm JAFF he's holding the title shot.
He gave Adam Cole title shot atall in Wembley at the end of the
month. We've still got what thiswas third week, three weeks before.
(49:52):
Now we got two more weeks beforewe get to that. And well that's
said Adam Cole is trying to keepeverything together and Roderick Strong is in the
way. Now it's interesting the Kingdomdid not get involved at all with Roderig
Strong coming out there. But RoderickStrong is causing, trying to cause a
(50:13):
wedge to break Adam Cole away fromMGF because Adam coles about they be screwed
over by MGF. Well, westill don't know what's going to happen with
the contract that Adam Cole signed westill don't know what that is with Roderick
Strong. We don't know what they'regoing to do in terms of where Adam
Cole is trying to play good andkeep up the friendship and try to keep
(50:36):
it everything peaceful between him and MJFwithout Roderg Strong screwing things up. There's
the part they're trying to work aboutall that as well. They have to
figure out where they're going to gowith that. Like that's all excellent work
and they keep figuring out. Youknow, that's a good storyline they're having.
And I didn't know they're gonna goas long as he did. And
now they want to use the Ringof Monter Tag Team titles. I'm a
(50:57):
little bit surprised that they're going togo and let Asie Open and MGF Adam
Cole do the pre show at WembleyStadium go zero hour and then wrestle for
the world title later on the night. That that's like that's an overkill,
But I guess I get what they'redoing it that's fine, but I'm surprised
they want to go that route andthey're gonna go that right on. Nevertheless,
(51:19):
but I liked that storyline too.I don't have a problem with that
either. And now there's the animositywith Cole and Strong because roder Struck came
out and told Cole, I can'tbelieve you want to win the title to
MJF, you're not you and notyour real friend me. MGF tells Strong
he's tired of him and his jealousy, and Strong tells Cole the Keendom was
right about you and you're whatever myfriend. Oh no, exhul be the
Keenom did come out. I didn'tsee that part, and they did hug
(51:40):
Strong, and then Cole pushed MJFand said I'm your friend, but Strong
as my friend. Also MGF gettingmad, and then he lets it slide.
They're just building it up because obviouslyAdam Cole wants to keep the friendship
up until he gets a title shotfor whatever reason, and JFF offered a
title shot after all, at thebiggest stage. So there's a lot of
(52:05):
chicanery is gonna happen as a result, and you don't know where we're gonna
go with it. But I stillthink it's we don't know, and some
people are always giving the animals toAdam Cole is going to screw over MJFF.
I still think it's MGF. It'sstill gonna go and screw things over,
just because that's the way it is. But it's quite a bit of
manipulation going on right now to makethat happen. That's fascinating. I really
(52:30):
am enjoying all that we're doing agood job with all together. So they're
finding out that what November eighteenth,a Saturday, aw Full Gear will be
at the Kia Forem in Los Angeles, but that has not been confirmed.
But Tony Kahn has also said thathe doesn't want book shows on Sundays due
to the NFL. So we don'tknow if Collison is going to happen or
(52:51):
not as it's expected. But we'llfigure all that out soon enough. So
there's a lot more to come.We got so much more coming up at
the end of the month to setup for. We're gonna work about that
soon enough. But right now,I hope I'm in my argument very clear.
Things are going well right now withwrestling. It really is. I've
(53:12):
been enjoying it a lot. Iknow there's some other people that are in
the business of not saying the sameway, but it doesn't matter to mean,
