- 2:18the show. A Jelly roll sings.
- 2:21Liar, of course. What do you guys do?
- 2:28You guys like Jelly Roll? Are you guys Jelly Roll fan?
- 2:31Not. Really.
- 2:36I both mean. Minutes are like, not really.
- 2:40No, I mean, I'm sure he's a great, you know, singer.
- 2:44I just haven't gotten into his music.
- 2:49There's maybe like only one or two songs that I like of his.
- 2:52I like him as a person. He's cool dude.
- 2:55He's a cool guy, he's a cool guy, but for the most part I
- 3:00don't really. He did good though.
- 3:04Moon Ever. Whatever.
- 3:05He did good. He did good throughout the rest
- 3:10of the night, too. When he came into the ring, that
- 3:15was fun, not good. But.
- 3:19He performed that good, but that, yeah, that was it.
- 3:23So let's get right to it. Let's get right to the first
- 3:27match. Liv Morgan defeated Maria Ripley
- 3:34at for the WWE Women's World Championship in 15 minutes and
- 3:3855 seconds. So a couple of things.
- 3:44It is the last time we see the entrance of Rear Ripley and
- 3:48Dominic Mysterio after two years in the Judgment Day and them
- 3:54both coming out together, Mommy and Dom.
- 3:59And you know, I mean, it was, it was fun.
- 4:06It I'm sad. I'm sad in a way, but then I'm
- 4:11also excited to see like, what's going to happen.
- 4:15Right. I was also Damian Priest
- 4:22documentary on PS Yeah. And they're all they were all
- 4:27saying to each other how they were like a family and
- 4:29everything. And then I'm just like, not
- 4:32anymore. Well.
- 4:33Not anymore. Not anymore at all It.
- 4:36Was bound to happen, but like, did you really think it was
- 4:40going to happen now? Like menace?
- 4:42Were you surprised that it happened?
- 4:44No. Because I called it.
- 4:48She called it, she says. I said that he was going to try
- 4:53to help, but he did help Liv Morgan, so it wasn't accidental.
- 5:00Right, right, right, right. Samantha Irving in the ring with
- 5:05Liv and Ria. That's like the biggest thing
- 5:08going on right now. That's picture circulating
- 5:11around Twitter, around the Internet it, but all three of
- 5:17their butts just hanging out and everybody's all like, oh, what's
- 5:20that? And well, of course Ria's like
- 5:28perfect. And then you got to live.
- 5:30And then yes, Samantha, it's like the three pillars of the
- 5:33year at the moment. Rewatch the introduction again.
- 5:39Samantha introduces Ria with a smile on her face and then says
- 5:44Dominic's name was by like us and that guy, whoever she's
- 5:48with, Dominic Mysterio. Oh my God.
- 5:54But like, I love her introductions.
- 5:57Like she gave it her all. And then later on you see her
- 6:03all disappointed at what happened in the ring with that.
- 6:08Yeah, I saw that and I said same Samantha, I feel the same way
- 6:14throwing. Up.
- 6:18Yeah, yeah, Corey Graves brings up Dom's history with Summer
- 6:22Slam, bringing up the custody match between Eddie Guerrero and
- 6:24Rey Mysterio. And how much better had Dom's
- 6:26life had been if Eddie won? Which of course is an inside
- 6:30laugh joke here because people requested this match to be a Dom
- 6:34on a Pole match. Or yeah, Ria versus live for
- 6:40custody of Dominic, Daddy Dom. Gross.
- 6:47Nah, he gross, Yeah. Gross, Gross.
- 6:51Yeah. Gross.
- 6:52Alright, I'm. Sorry, he's not attractive at
- 6:56all. Even even before he was in the
- 7:00judgment day, he's not attractive to me at all.
- 7:02Well. You know, he looks just out of
- 7:09place with the with the with the mustache those like, oh God,
- 7:13please shave it on the hair the. Mullet the Eddie Herrera had
- 7:17haircut. T MU T MU Eddie Guerrero.
- 7:25Yeah. Lib Morgan managed to dodge her
- 7:28shoulder charge into turnbook from really causing the ladder
- 7:31to injure her shoulder. Shouting to the referee that
- 7:34it's out. Taking advantage of the injury,
- 7:37Morgan performed a code breaker on Ripley, who responded by
- 7:40knocking Morgan down and retreating into Rinside.
- 7:43Ripley forced her shoulder back into his socket by ramming it
- 7:45into the the announced as, which was freaking hot.
- 7:49Can I just say? Can I just say that was such?
- 7:54A Oh. My God, I I, I I.
- 8:00My heart skipped a beat there. For a second I was like.
- 8:04What? I was like, no, she didn't.
- 8:08And then that just made me like it was getting hot in there for
- 8:14a second. Oh my.
- 8:19OK, yeah, it got hot a lot for a second there.
- 8:25Lib Morgan went ringside to get a steel chair.
- 8:28Ripley responded by landing the riptide.
- 8:30Ripley then took the chair Morgan had retrieved, seemingly
- 8:32ready to brutalize her, but she was stopped by Mysterio, who
- 8:36told her that she would be disqualified.
- 8:37She attempted to use the chair. I swear to God I was just like
- 8:43don't you dare as soon. As the chair came out, I knew.
- 8:46I knew. As soon as that chair came out,
- 8:48I was like, Nope, he's going. To do something.
- 8:50He's going to. He's going to do something.
- 8:55For a second I thought he was gonna hit her with it.
- 8:59Oh my God. After he took.
- 9:00It from her. I was like, oh, please don't.
- 9:05But then he's like, you know? You don't want to do this or.
- 9:12You're gonna. Lose your chance or something
- 9:14like that. Yeah.
- 9:16Well, I mean, she kind of did because you ruined it for her.
- 9:22I mean if she did, even if there was an end game over there, what
- 9:26happened at the end? Even if she did hit live with
- 9:29the chair, she would have been a Spotify live with A1 and either
- 9:34way still. But like they needed to do the
- 9:39whole thing with him I guess. Morgan went ringside to get a
- 9:43steel chair. She kind of attacked in the
- 9:47confusion landing of living for another rear fall near fall.
- 9:51However, Mysterio then distracted the referee, leading
- 9:53Morgan to land of Libyan on rear directly into the abandoned
- 9:56chair before pinning really the referee turning in count 3 with
- 10:00Morgan retaining her Women's World Championship.
- 10:02As soon as he smiled. I said you asshole, you dare.
- 10:08You swipe right, I like I saw her face and I was just so
- 10:16devastated for her Every I like yelled at my TV and I was like.
- 10:23You yelled at your TV amenities. Did you yell at also?
- 10:28I was like, I knew this. Yeah, yeah.
- 10:31I was like, I knew it. I knew this is going to happen.
- 10:33I was like, Dang it, I hate you, right?
- 10:35But But then of course, I'm like, you know what, you know,
- 10:42he could have played it off. You know, I'd be like, oh, I
- 10:46don't know. But then I was like, no, the
- 10:48fact that he after she won, he picked her up and kissed her.
- 10:54I was like, no, I like, you know what?
- 10:58This that's disgusting. It was a no, he was.
- 11:04Looking like KISS ever. It was so gross.
- 11:07And then I was like, you know what?
- 11:08I was like, that's OK, now they can do the whole Jay USO
- 11:13storyline. I'm like, I'm for it, I'm for
- 11:19it. I want it to happen.
- 11:22Do you? Think Mommy and do you think her
- 11:24and Damien Priest will do something not Jay USO?
- 11:29Character, I think they'll be like they'll have each other's
- 11:32back. I don't think they're going to
- 11:34be like a romantic storyline. Yeah, OK.
- 11:39They're just going to, I, I think they're just going to be
- 11:42tag team partners because, I mean, they were friends already
- 11:45before the judgement day, you know, and even he, he did a post
- 11:51when she came back. He's like, I miss my friend, you
- 11:55know. So that's when I, I was like,
- 11:59yeah, they're going to break up the judgement day and those two
- 12:01are going to be together. And then the judgement day is
- 12:04going to be everybody else. Yeah, as I told, I am liking
- 12:12that whole. Jay, you so Ria Ripley.
- 12:17I would love that storyline just to see it happen.
- 12:22I don't know, I just want to see it happen.
- 12:27So you basically screamed at your TVI on the other hand,
- 12:33missed out on this match because I forgot what time it started.
- 12:37So I rushed to the store to get some chips because I needed like
- 12:45food. At the same time I realized, Oh
- 12:48yeah, there's this one guy on TikTok that's always streaming
- 12:52Ross Smackdown, all the wrestling episodes and all that
- 12:55stuff. Maybe he's doing summer slam.
- 12:58Yes, he is. All right, cool.
- 13:00I'm a watch summer slam while I'm on the road.
- 13:04The first match where everything and Liv Morgan and like the
- 13:10shoulder thing happened. I went in the store, I came out.
- 13:13That whole finish was happening. You guys screamed at you TV.
- 13:19I screamed out at the road. What?
- 13:25What are you doing? No, what is what the fuck is
- 13:29your problem? Oh blah blah blah.
- 13:31You know, and people thought that I was talking about them
- 13:34because like there's traffic and I'm yelling and there are
- 13:37windows down and I'm like, oh shit.
- 13:39So let me put the windows up you.
- 13:40Know we can hear that bad road rage.
- 13:44Right. And everyone was like, are you?
- 13:46No, I'm watching this shit. And then that that whole thing's
- 13:50like, Oh my God. And I'm just like, Oh yeah, it
- 13:54was. A big surprise it.
- 13:56Was it was a big surprise, Like I wasn't expecting that.
- 14:00Happen and it and I knew it was going to happen sooner than
- 14:03later. I just didn't think it would
- 14:07happen this soon now. Exactly.
- 14:10To be honest. After the match, Damien Priest
- 14:16is backstage at clubhouse asking Fan if he knew.
- 14:18He says no, but then we find out that he did know.
- 14:25That's. A lie.
- 14:31Next match, Brown Breaker defeated Sami Zayn for the
- 14:34internal championship at 5 minutes and 40 seconds.
- 14:39The match went back and forth with Zane seemingly.
- 14:41Yeah, 5 minutes. Yeah.
- 14:44It's crazy, Zane. I mean, I knew it was fast, but
- 14:46I didn't think it was that on this.
- 14:48But hey. Yeah, I just like Oh well damn.
- 14:54OK, but I guess you guys didn't have most trust in Sammy because
- 15:00Braun is all like used to doing these on short ass matches
- 15:04except for his tag team. But short match like are they're
- 15:09just gonna like do the whole Brock Lesnar thing with him I
- 15:11guess saying Zimi holding his own despite Breakers aggression,
- 15:17landing a boots on their bomb and several other maneuvers of
- 15:23Frankenstein are and avoiding Lane's helluva kick by sparing
- 15:27him break around the rope to achieve a high speed and spear.
- 15:29Lane wants more before pinning him for the three counts,
- 15:32securing the internal championship in his first
- 15:34championship of the main roster. Rick and Scott Stein are the
- 15:37only family members of Braun that we actually like that were
- 15:41in attendance cheering their boy on.
- 15:51Yeah. Why?
- 15:55What's going on? What happened?
- 15:59Ah, go ahead, keep going. Continue.
- 16:03I I love that. I love that his dad and uncle
- 16:07were up there. Like yes, his real family, yes,
- 16:12I love that. Yeah, but I saw like a when they
- 16:19showed their reaction, I saw like one of the comments on
- 16:23under the post was like, they did them dirty with those seats.
- 16:27And I'm like, they were in a box.
- 16:30How dirty could that be? I mean, I think it would have
- 16:33been cool. It would have been cool if, you
- 16:35know, if Rick Steiner was down there so he could have, you
- 16:39know, celebrated like all everybody else.
- 16:43But I was like, hey, they're in a box.
- 16:46You know, they're having fun up there and then, you know,
- 16:50Breaker said. You know, he went up there.
- 16:53So I'm surprised Breaker. Well, I I'm surprised that
- 16:57Steiner wasn't down like like you said, menace, like I'm
- 17:01surprised he wasn't down more and got more involved.
- 17:06You know what I mean? But you've got also got to
- 17:10remember that bronze just up and coming.
- 17:12He's not like, he's not like this big, huge, you know?
- 17:20Yeah, wrestler, he's not big time yet No, he get there he.
- 17:25Ever will be. He'll never.
- 17:27Be. Oh no, but.
- 17:28In my opinion, but. Wow ma'am, sounds like you have
- 17:38a serious vendetta with this guy.
- 17:42With his family, yes, And him. You know why we won't continue
- 17:47that? Well, OK.
- 17:50Oh, OK, Move on to the next match.
- 17:58LA Knight defeated Logan Paul for the US Championship. 12
- 18:02minutes. Yeah.
- 18:07Finally, someone beats him was greeted by Featured WE Celebrity
- 18:11Wing Hall of Famer MGK Machine Gun Kelly, who disguised as a
- 18:17security guard and joined him at ringside.
- 18:19He did nothing throughout the match as well as when he was
- 18:22hanging out with Jelly Roll later that night.
- 18:24He did nothing to contribute. He did nothing.
- 18:28And you guys gave him the video game treatment also.
- 18:32That sucks. Knight and Paul brought around
- 18:40the ring for some time before eventually forcing one another
- 18:42into the ring and officially starting the match.
- 18:45It was a lot like a 5 minute thing and then like.
- 18:47Finally matched. Yeah.
- 18:51Towards the end, Paul went to Kelly and his other allies at
- 18:53ringside. Again, Kelly did nothing.
- 18:56Just the other two guys. OK.
- 18:59The only thing that Kelly did, you know, that's the only thing
- 19:02he did. It was like, I saw he was like,
- 19:04this guy took a powerbomb from Kevin Owens on the stage.
- 19:08Come on, he could have done something.
- 19:11Straight. Yeah.
- 19:15That just shows that Logan Paul's friends are all weak.
- 19:21Paul was able to obtain his brass.
- 19:23Knuckle. The bravest one was that I was
- 19:26AK, not KSI. Speed.
- 19:30Yeah, he was the bravest one. He stepped to Randy Orton.
- 19:35Could he know that better? He that guy is insane.
- 19:40He doesn't like Oh yeah, let me take an RKO.
- 19:44Yeah. He he's a fan.
- 19:47He's like, let me do it. I'll do it.
- 19:49Like everybody's like, I don't want to get hurt.
- 19:51I was like speed was just like, I'll take it.
- 19:56Yeah. How many hits did that?
- 19:58Did that do? I'll take it again, Yeah.
- 20:02Paul attempted to follow up with Hangman's buckshot lariat, which
- 20:07Knight prevented, landing the BFT and painting Paul to obtain
- 20:11the United States Championship, his first single championship in
- 20:14WE finally. Yeah, and I'm still done with
- 20:18him. Like, all right, fine.
- 20:22Like, yeah. Was it the rock cosplayer?
- 20:30The. Rock cosplayer, Yeah.
- 20:35For the NACA version of Stone Cold, someone is said to oh.
- 20:40Yeah, I've seen something. I've seen someone saying that
- 20:43someone was saying that. Yeah, it's both of them at the
- 20:48same time. I'm just like, go for it.
- 20:55We need a little Attitude Era style in there next match nya
- 21:05Nya Jack was Bailey defeated Bailey for the WWE Championship.
- 21:081230 seconds. Yes.
- 21:14Who was that NYA? That was me.
- 21:17I did that. What?
- 21:19What happened? She's irrelevant honestly.
- 21:25She's become so like. I mean, I'm.
- 21:35Not I was never like a big NIA Jacks fan.
- 21:38Like maybe back in the day, like when way back when she first
- 21:42started, like when she first started it was cool, but like
- 21:47then she left and she's been gone for so long and then now
- 21:50here she comes back thinking she's the shiznits and she's
- 21:56not. Not a fan.
- 22:03Nope, not a fan. Never will be a fan.
- 22:07I think I actually saw her wrestle more in this match than
- 22:12just, you know, kind of use her weight.
- 22:15You know, I actually saw her wrestle.
- 22:18So I agree. And you know, it was, I think it
- 22:21was a good match. You know, I just, I don't know,
- 22:27I just thought it was a little too soon to give her the belt.
- 22:30But you I agree. I agree.
- 22:36But I still stay say that she's not going to keep it, so
- 22:43someone's going to, yeah, catch her or cash in.
- 22:49I shouldn't you think that you can catch in?
- 22:54But you know, that cash in I think will come later.
- 23:00I don't think it's going to come home.
- 23:03I don't think she's ready yet. If Tiffany cashes in, that'll be
- 23:07the biggest pop beside EO doing a cash in like the Princess
- 23:14because. I saw that on Smackdown.
- 23:17She's like, you know, if you cash in, you're no longer my
- 23:21Princess. So I'm like, I don't know, maybe
- 23:24she's gonna get tired of. Being Princess and call her top
- 23:29of queen and I'm like she's. Gonna get tired of like, being
- 23:34pushed around by Nya and then she's gonna be like, yeah, OK,
- 23:37I'm gonna cash, yeah. Tiffy Time.
- 23:42Yeah. She'll cash in.
- 23:44I hope she cashes in at WrestleMania.
- 23:47We have about four or five, six months.
- 23:49Yeah, I hope she catches her. That's a good enough time for
- 23:54her to have it too, you know? Or she gets pushed to raw Either
- 24:03way, like I could see her becoming a fate, like
- 24:06everybody's pushing her and all that stuff.
- 24:09Yeah, she probably want to go on raw anyway because that's where
- 24:11her boyfriend. Is so.
- 24:14Oh yeah, that's right, that's right.
- 24:20Next match, Drew McIntyre defeated CM Punk with S Rollins,
- 24:26a special Pets referee. Yeah, blah blah blah.
- 24:30Anyway, 17 minutes. We can skip that, he says.
- 24:35Blah blah blah anyway, blah blah blah Anyway.
- 24:36Next, tell us how you. Really feel.
- 24:46Tell us how you really feel, Evo.
- 24:49Over over a friendship bracelet. Really I'm like, bro, just you
- 24:56can make a new one. You can make a new one.
- 25:01Is Seth told him I'm not messing with you.
- 25:04I just saw it on the ground. I picked it up, You know, if he
- 25:09actually probably could have won that match, to be honest, he
- 25:14could have because he was, you know, he had his finisher about
- 25:18to get it on Drew and then he saw that Seth had the bracelet
- 25:23and then he went crazy. I'm like, you know what, you did
- 25:28it to yourself. That's.
- 25:32Very true. That's very true.
- 25:34But also, again, I don't know. I don't know.
- 25:38I don't know. I'm.
- 25:41The match was 17 minutes too long.
- 25:46If you're going to do that the entire 2.
- 25:48Seconds or. What at least a short match if
- 25:51it was going to, it was going to be about a bracelet at least
- 25:54like make it. They should have just like cut
- 25:57off some stuff. But.
- 25:59You mean it should have been 5 minutes and 45 seconds?
- 26:03Sure, cinematic, but they want to be all cinematic about it.
- 26:06And like here comes CM Punk looking at sad.
- 26:10I was like looking down at his wrist, like, what are you?
- 26:13Why are you wearing that? And I'm just like, oh, I get it.
- 26:16OK, fine. And I'm like, like, this is the
- 26:21only match. This is the only match where I'm
- 26:22like, who's going to win? Oh, shit, OK.
- 26:25And then Drew wins. I'm like really all right.
- 26:32Throughout this match alone and the first match, they made a big
- 26:36deal to showcase the referee camp for like a little bit on
- 26:42the first match and it's like, oh look, referee camp didn't
- 26:45showcase any of it until this match here Drew and.
- 26:50CN Punk and even with the, you know, in the first match they
- 26:56didn't show anything. There's like you don't like from
- 27:00the ref. He did for like a bit of it.
- 27:06And then I was like, OK, then they, you know, they showed when
- 27:09Seth was, you know, coming down to the ring and they showed a
- 27:14couple times, you know, before the match started.
- 27:18But I didn't, I mean, I don't know.
- 27:21And why didn't they have all the refs wearing it?
- 27:26It's kind of weird. Yeah, I didn't see all of them
- 27:29wearing them. I only saw the.
- 27:31First, the first one. Yeah, the first one in search,
- 27:35that's all I saw. I didn't see any other ones
- 27:37wearing them and they didn't bring them up again the rest of
- 27:40the the rest of the time. So what was the point of that?
- 27:44That nothing at all, Just. There was no fucking point.
- 27:47There was no fucking point. No point to it at all.
- 27:51And I'm just like, so that's it. There's no more of that.
- 27:55Mm Hmm. Yeah, I guess the right person
- 28:01won, but of course it's never over.
- 28:05With Tina, yes. It's never over with CM Punk, of
- 28:10course, like bad blood. I'm thinking bad blood, they're
- 28:17going to make it. They're going to do a bad blood
- 28:20match and it's going to be bloody and all this stuff.
- 28:22And I said on when I was watching Raw, I was like, all
- 28:25right, so now what? Drew's got a new special guest
- 28:29referee for Drew versus or Seth versus CM.
- 28:34Is that what's going to happen next?
- 28:36Alternating between all three? But then I don't know but
- 28:42they're. Going to make it a triple threat
- 28:44match. They're going to have a even
- 28:47though nobody has a title. That's what I should do.
- 28:50Just let them all get in there together.
- 28:54Yeah, Gunther defeated Damien Priest for the WE World
- 29:03Championship. 16 minutes and 40 seconds.
- 29:06And the closing moments of the match.
- 29:09Oh, that's not it. You know what?
- 29:14The entire match was fucking awesome.
- 29:17Yeah, Oh yeah, That was the anger of just the Met the night.
- 29:2725 chops between them both. The reason why Gunther was split
- 29:35open on his chest was because the night before he fought Finn
- 29:40Balor, and Balor just slapped the hell out of him, chopped on
- 29:44him, leaving him marks. And then even the kicks, the
- 29:50kicks from Damien is just like. And then like, somehow it one of
- 29:56those slaps ended up taking the skin off of that little mark
- 29:59right there that he had and Gunther and like, all the blood
- 30:04started coming out. Somebody has said.
- 30:07How did it open? Oh, God.
- 30:09Yeah. Somebody has said that Damien
- 30:12was the first one to actually look at the replay on the screen
- 30:17and figure. Out, yes, Yeah.
- 30:21Yeah, which I. Was like, oh.
- 30:22Really. You know, yeah, Finn comes out
- 30:29and we think he's cheering him on, but we all knew.
- 30:33Even the guy in the front row was like, don't you do it?
- 30:37Yeah, I know. Uh huh.
- 30:39I was. Like, wait, wait.
- 30:44In that moment, I knew I was like.
- 30:48Like he, there's like that one night.
- 30:50Steve was. He rolled him over by the the
- 30:54ropes. I was like, there.
- 30:55That's when it's gonna happen. Yeah, yeah, there that one guy
- 31:00that stood up and then there's the entire row stood up.
- 31:02And I'm like, if something ever, if something were to ever go
- 31:06South, these guys right here would be the ones that have come
- 31:09out to the ring and like attack fucking fins.
- 31:13Like, damn, there's gonna be about to be alright with you
- 31:16guys. The 25 chops, the kicks, the
- 31:23forearms, they were rough. Got to deserve this.
- 31:30Like he finally deserved this. I don't think he'll be like like
- 31:34a long champion, like I'm like, alright, he'll have it, lose it,
- 31:39regain it again, lose it, regain it again.
- 31:42Could be one of those like long not longest, but like a long
- 31:45enough to have a reign and then lose it and then come back and
- 31:49regain it again. I agree.
- 31:52Because we just, we just did that with Roman, we just did
- 31:56that with Ria. We just did that with Logan
- 31:59Paul. Now we're doing this again after
- 32:02doing the Intercontinental Championship dealt with him and
- 32:07the United the United Kingdom championship belt with him and I
- 32:12think probably the NXT one. No, that's it.
- 32:14NXT UK and that's it. And Oh yeah.
- 32:17Oh. Yeah.
- 32:20Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Long is raining.
- 32:21He's he can like we've seen him for like the past five years
- 32:25just holding belts. That's it.
- 32:29So like I like if he holds this one for like at least the entire
- 32:34year, OK, fine, let's see what happens the next year.
- 32:38But don't do it like they did with Roman.
- 32:40Just like keep making him like championship material and keep
- 32:45they make giving him matches to face main event.
- 32:52Cody Rhodes defeated solo for the Undisputed W Championship
- 32:56Blood right bloodline rule match longest match in the night. 29
- 33:01minutes and 10 seconds before entering the ring, Rose met with
- 33:06Ariana. What?
- 33:07Was totally told. Yeah, I know, right?
- 33:10How long you cut out on my end? Again, another match that could
- 33:14have been like short. I've said how long was the match
- 33:18you cut out on my end? 29 minutes and 1029 minutes and
- 33:2310 seconds. It's like.
- 33:27Wow. Also, that could have been cut
- 33:29short for some reason. Well, no, like I understand why
- 33:33I was like long because there was that five minute intro of
- 33:39Roman at the very end. I feel, I feel, I feel like,
- 33:44yeah, that was just a really long.
- 33:47That was really long. It's always long.
- 33:49It's. Always long.
- 33:50They, they, they, they have to make it long, right?
- 33:54Yeah. Before he made his ring a day
- 34:01appearance, he met Rose met with Arne Anderson, making his first
- 34:07appearance at W since 9/20/19. Hey, where's he been all this
- 34:10time? AW, assuring Rose that he.
- 34:14Would have. Back up in the match like we
- 34:17haven't seen this guy in forever.
- 34:20AW. After battling back and forth
- 34:23between Rhodes and Sekoa, with neither side gaining an
- 34:25advantage, Rhodes eventually managed to land a crossroads
- 34:28before being attacked by Tangaloa and Tamatonga, who
- 34:31savagely beat him. Rhodes was then assisted by
- 34:34Kevin Owens and Randy Orton and Turn, who chased away both of
- 34:37Sekoa's allies, brutalizing Sekoa with steel steps.
- 34:42I actually thought I was going to have same thing that happened
- 34:44with AJ Styles going to happen here just like he's turning into
- 34:48homeland, just like throw the steps at him.
- 34:51And so they'll be like I quit now, but here we are.
- 34:56That's. What I thought too.
- 34:58Yeah, here. We are right, it went a
- 35:00completely like different way. Rhodes has been attacked by
- 35:07Jacob but two, who threw out Rhodes into the announce table
- 35:11before landing a frog splash from the turnbuckle, seemingly
- 35:14injuring himself and Rose in the process.
- 35:17That ankle. Mm hmm.
- 35:22Yeah, that. That didn't look very pleasing.
- 35:26No, I'm like from someone who had the ankle problems and like
- 35:30I feel him completely. Screaming and screaming and
- 35:36screaming and then yelling at Solo finish the match and finish
- 35:39the match threw him in the ring. And before he could even like,
- 35:43go for it, Rhodes is able to hit respond with a Cody cutter,
- 35:50leaving the two of them in mobile on the floor.
- 35:53And then the crowd erupts like we see it in real time.
- 35:58We've we've probably seen everybody's reaction.
- 36:01Everybody. Yeah, which reaction too?
- 36:04Oh my God. Like OK.
- 36:06Buddy, I was seeing, I was seeing like footage of people
- 36:12like videotaping like, oh, let's bring Roman.
- 36:15Let's bring Roman back. Roman needs to be back.
- 36:18And then here he comes like. I knew it, yeah.
- 36:23Me too. Because I mean I.
- 36:27Knew he was going to come back at some point, but it was really
- 36:30honestly, like I said, I, I didn't know it was going to be
- 36:33bad, you know, like it's a long story.
- 36:38They've been doing this storyline for how long now?
- 36:41So, and you know, I got rid of what's his face, Paul Heyman.
- 36:48No. You know.
- 36:52OK, so was it just me or did I hear ARN Anderson say he has two
- 36:56boys in the back and then, yeah, two other ones that he know?
- 37:04Yeah. So Roman is one of them.
- 37:07Who was the other boy? I guess I don't know because
- 37:12unless he was talking about. Jimmy.
- 37:16I heard, yeah, I heard that Jimmy was supposed to return,
- 37:20but they said they figured they would Boo him because they
- 37:24wanted Roman. So we knew KO and we knew, you
- 37:32know, Randy Orton. Yeah, he took.
- 37:41As soon as he comes out, he looks at the crowd, everybody he
- 37:44gets over huge pop. He like, even like Michael, like
- 37:50whose side is he on? Like, is he here for Solo?
- 37:54Is he here for Cody? He gets in the ring.
- 37:57He like immediately Superman punches Solo goes to his corner,
- 38:02does the oh ah tribal freaking yell and go through the spear on
- 38:08Solo looks over at Rose and just like stares at him just like all
- 38:13right, peace out. So he walks out and then turns
- 38:17back to look at Cody's like, all right, dude, finish the fucking
- 38:20story. Finish the match.
- 38:22Finish it like. Finish the match like here I
- 38:25helped you halfway. Now it's your turn to finish it
- 38:28like. You know.
- 38:30Which I'm really shocked. I I mean, I'm, I'm, I'm shocked,
- 38:34but I'm not like the knot part is basically because like, he's
- 38:39probably just was really annoyed, you know, he's like,
- 38:43OK, well, I'm the only tribal chief, original tribal chief.
- 38:52Yeah. So yeah, I'm, I'm kind of glad
- 38:57those, but we'll see how it pans out, you know, how the storyline
- 39:01pans out now. I was, I was really surprised
- 39:05because I thought Roman would go back into the ring and do
- 39:10something to Cody, you know, So I'm like, yeah, don't turn your
- 39:14back on Roman, you know? So I'm glad that Cody, you know,
- 39:18kind of kept his eyes on Roman to make sure he wasn't going to
- 39:22try to do something. Right, right.
- 39:26Right so Cody wins, he gets to win, and then the ending shot is
- 39:33of Solo screaming and I'm for sure thought it was Jacob and
- 39:42then like wait what? What's that Solo screaming and
- 39:45not Jacob Jacobs in the background?
- 39:46Just like like why isn't Jacob screaming ankle pictures of
- 39:56Solo? I mean, Jacob appeared later the
- 39:59night of him in a boot. He didn't fracture anything.
- 40:05He's just like they put him in a boot to seldom move.
- 40:08He needed that little time down so that again, like you said, if
- 40:14he wasn't down then Jimmy would have came out to boot probably.
- 40:19And then the other one would have been Roman.
- 40:22But Roman came out, they told Jacob like, stay down.
- 40:26Right. Yeah, little bit after the
- 40:32match, ever after everything, when Cody is celebrating his
- 40:35win, there's video of Solo going to the back and like, realizing
- 40:40he's not the Tribal Chief after all even.
- 40:46Never won. Staring into the camera and
- 40:49rolling so my time is done. Yeah.
- 40:55Like that little shot of him staring into the camera, it's
- 40:58like meta. And it's like, well, that's all
- 41:02fun. That's.
- 41:03It that's it then. Then that's the story.
- 41:08He's bad. So let's talk about that smack
- 41:18down later. After that, we get the Summer
- 41:21Slam Post show, or as I like to call it, Triple H's podcast,
- 41:26because that's what it was, yeah.
- 41:27Really, this man can. Talk.
- 41:32This man can talk. Oh my fuck, If he were to do
- 41:36this, these type of problems back in the 90s is like, there'd
- 41:39be like, there's no way of him getting out of the fucking ring
- 41:42at all, man. Let's see, next year Summer Slam
- 41:48will go for two nights and then they will see how it holds.
- 41:53So maybe 2026 In the future they have two night shows for every
- 41:57major event. Royal Rumble, WrestleMania,
- 41:59Summer Slam, Survivor Series Hope, maybe King and Queen of
- 42:03the Ring, who knows. I hope not.
- 42:08Yeah, that's the way that's what he's saying.
- 42:10That's what it was like. They're trying to see how money
- 42:13wise how it goes if because if it does work out that they're
- 42:17going to continue doing it after 20/26/2020 six.
- 42:20We heard that it was going to be the two nights of some slam in
- 42:25the Twin Cities. But all right, actually they're
- 42:30doing it next year. They're not doing it in 20
- 42:33years. They're doing, they're starting
- 42:34in 20 in 2025, but they're telling you 2026 we're going to
- 42:39do it at the Twin Cities and we're going to have two nights.
- 42:42But next year we're going to do everything.
- 42:44Two nights, two nights of a Rumble.
- 42:46It was like, oh, so. And I get it because from night
- 42:51one, women's wear Rumble, night two men's wear Rumble, and then
- 42:55seven matches on each card. WrestleMania 8 matches on each
- 42:59card, King of the Ring night 1, Queen of the Ring night 2,
- 43:06Summer Slam night one, night 2, Survivor Series night one with
- 43:11the cage match, War game, possibly two brands or possibly
- 43:20just one brand and the men's, and then the next night the
- 43:23women's. And what's at the end of the
- 43:27year? Day one, well they usually they
- 43:32did day one as raw because they didn't do it as a PLE.
- 43:38Right. But they might do like clashed
- 43:40at the capsule again. We'll see how you know, Bash of
- 43:44Berlin does. I don't know if they want to do
- 43:47it in Berlin every year. It'd be the same as going to
- 43:55like Puerto Rico, how they had a big pop for, they're going to
- 44:02have a big pop for Gunther here. Yeah.
- 44:06Oh yeah. Maybe Ludwig?
- 44:12Will have a a match then too. Him and Sheamus.
- 44:21Midnight Raw aftermath The Viper interrupted the Ring general
- 44:26celebratory promo to reveal himself to the number one
- 44:28contender, citing the inconclusive and controversial
- 44:31end to their match in the finals of the King in the Ring
- 44:33tournament. Gunther will defend his newly
- 44:35won World Heavyweight Championship against Randy Orton
- 44:37in Germany on August 31st at Bash in Berlin, as we found out
- 44:42in the opening segment of Monday's Raw show.
- 44:46August 31st. You guys are available for the
- 44:5028th, right? Yes.
- 44:54OK, yeah, Gunther accepted and ended his promo by claiming
- 44:58nothing could catch him off guard, to which the Piper
- 44:59replied by saying he wanted the champion to see his RKO coming.
- 45:06An infuriated Damon Priest marched at the ring and called
- 45:08out Finn Balor in response to the shocking betrayal that cost
- 45:10the Archer infamy. The world favorite championship
- 45:12at a SummerSlam, The Prince understandably wanted nothing to
- 45:15do with his former attacking partner.
- 45:17Instead of addressing him via video, he revealed that Priest
- 45:20will battle JD McDonald later Monday night while he waited for
- 45:23the perfect moment to take out the former world champion.
- 45:27And then from there, Valor introduced the new Judgment Day,
- 45:29which included McDonald, McDonald, Liv Morgan, Carlito
- 45:33and himself also. I feel like Valor go ahead.
- 45:38Oh, sorry, I feel like Valor is just hiding.
- 45:42He's he knows that he's gonna get smashed and he knows that
- 45:46he's gonna get, you know, hurt so bad that he that's why he was
- 45:51on video. That kind of made me mad 'cause
- 45:53I really wanted to see them like go head to head, but I think
- 45:57it's a little too soon anyways so.
- 46:01It is too soon. Do we see it as a bad blood or
- 46:05do we just feed us in Berlin? Merlin.
- 46:13No, I I think, I think bad blood just because I think, yeah, bad
- 46:19blood just because I think it the way that Finn was talking,
- 46:24you know, he wants to wait till Damian thinks he's, you know,
- 46:28got a handle on things, you know, and two weeks from now
- 46:35he's, you know, he's not going to have a handle on anything.
- 46:38He's just going to be causing so much chaos.
- 46:41Yeah. And the judgment day is just
- 46:45going to. They're all going to get
- 46:46smashed, every single one of them.
- 46:53Also, Finn says that he took out the egos from Judgment Day,
- 47:00basically both Ria and Damian who said that they were the
- 47:04leaders and he says like there are no leaders in Judgment Day.
- 47:08OK. OK.
- 47:11OK, yeah, Finn was like the new judgment day.
- 47:15OK, so you're establishing yourself as the leader.
- 47:20Right judgment day. The wish?
- 47:27Wish version of Judgment day. The wish version, yes.
- 47:32So we got Finn Valor, JD McDonough, DTD, Carlito, DTD,
- 47:43Dominic, and then Liv Morgan. Yeah, 'cause do you think
- 47:57they'll add more members? No.
- 48:01No. I don't think.
- 48:04So that's it right here. I think they might end up like
- 48:07kicking Carlito out at least or. Yeah, can we switch our leader
- 48:12with someone else? I know, right?
- 48:15Like can we just like get like? Why?
- 48:20OK, So this judgment day versus Damon Priest and Ria Ripley, who
- 48:26else are they getting out their team I.
- 48:28Don't know, Jay, you so OK. Jay USO, Who else?
- 48:34He's their ally. Let's see, who else?
- 48:39I don't know. Well.
- 48:45Our truth. Yeah, maybe awesome truth.
- 48:49Yeah, OK. Yeah.
- 48:53Awesome truth. If he's available, I want to say
- 48:56if he's available, he call in a favor and get Bad Bunny.
- 49:04That's it. Bad Bunny will forgive him.
- 49:08That's true. Like Oh yeah, Oh yeah, Primo.
- 49:11Oh yeah. Oh yeah, Mono.
- 49:12I'm like oh God, it's a piece too.
- 49:14Yeah, weapon. But I will say that Bad Bunny is
- 49:22pretty good. He's a pretty good athlete.
- 49:25He is, he is. You know.
- 49:26He is for being a just a singer, He's he's done really well with
- 49:33some with his. Stuff they, I don't know who
- 49:39said it, I think it was Michael Cole or I don't know who did it,
- 49:44but called Damien Priest and Rio Ripley the Terror Twins.
- 49:52Oh yeah. OK, so that's a lovely ass name.
- 49:56The Terror. They also call themselves that
- 50:01they had on his on one of his best.
- 50:07It says terror twins on it. So I was like, I'm for it.
- 50:15I love it. And in the main event of that
- 50:23raw Joe gacy Dexter lumens and Eric Rowan defeated Chad Gable
- 50:28and the creed brothers and the six man tacky mansion.
- 50:31The Wyatt six made their in ring debut Monday night in Baltimore
- 50:34the side of the Wyatt family's first appearance 11 years
- 50:38earlier. They entered as shattered by
- 50:40code Orange played the theme song created for Bray Wyatt
- 50:43during his last run. Creed brothers and Chad Gable,
- 50:49known as American made what a dominate the majority reaction
- 50:55by isolating Gacy and working him over utilizing quick tags to
- 50:58their advantage. I love how Gacy is flexible
- 51:01enough to do the the stretch the one that Gray Wyatt needs to and
- 51:09like he did that and I said it's like, yeah, there he is because
- 51:12he did it in analytics. He also, and that's when we all
- 51:15like realized he could, he should jump to Raw and like hang
- 51:19out with Gray Wyatt. Right.
- 51:23Eventually, Gacy made the tag to Rowan, who obliterated
- 51:26competition, stopping by stopping to pay homage to the
- 51:29late Brodie Lee. Luke Harper along the way with
- 51:32the yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah and then hit Luke Harper's
- 51:36move joined lose engaging, earning the win.
- 51:39Uncle Howdy and Abby Dewitch watching from ringside.
- 51:44After the match, people were still recording from their
- 51:46phones and catching Gacy, hugging both Roman and Uncle
- 51:49Howdy, who had joined them in the ring to celebrate and point
- 51:51at the sky. To celebrate.
- 51:52Bray Wyatt and that is lovely. That was amazing, I loved it.
- 51:59Yeah, that was. OK, so predictions for
- 52:06Smackdown? The tribal chief will be there.
- 52:12Yeah, yeah, he'll be there. The real Yeah, the OG of the
- 52:17Ogs. Yeah.
- 52:19Filing. And I think he's gonna, you
- 52:26know, at the press conference, Cody said, you know, Roman
- 52:31deserves a shot. I think he's gonna be like,
- 52:35good. Berlin.
- 52:37Not yet, no. What 'cause I'm gonna win?
- 52:42Do you say that already? Like, damn, all right, you're
- 52:45the fish, buddy. I know, right?
- 52:48Unless, unless the entire disc bloodline 2.0 interfere and cost
- 52:56roaming the belt, and then we get a whole.
- 52:59All right, here comes Jimmy, here comes Jay.
- 53:03Well, not Jay. Paul Heyman, all them like.
- 53:05We need Paul Heyman back. If Roman comes back, we need
- 53:08Paul Heyman to be by his side. Yeah.
- 53:10Oh, I'm sure he'll be back with him soon.
- 53:14Oh yeah, we'll see that. Maybe it's been what, a month
- 53:22since he got put through the table?
- 53:25Yeah. Yeah, I think he'll be back.
- 53:28He might have a neck brace on. The correct the correct way to
- 53:35wear a neck brace, not move your neck.
- 53:39Yeah. I know.
- 53:45So predictions for him when he comes out, he's just going to
- 53:49like call out the other bloodline members and be like,

- 54:20hanging because that's what they are.
- 54:22The Tonga twins had the Tonga twins just hanging out in the
- 54:25bag just like looking at Roman because one of them had beef
- 54:29with Roman a year a few years back on Twitter.
- 54:31So. Oh yeah, yeah, you're right.
- 54:34Tom, I think it was Tama, one of them, one that the not the one
- 54:39with the iPads, the other one though, OK.

- 54:48yeah. So yeah.
- 54:52So when they because they were, they weren't even around in the
- 54:55ring when he showed up. So when like Friday night
- 54:58happens, I'm just going to like watch him be like, what's up?
- 55:03It's. Like waiting for him.
- 55:05Hopefully if something that does happen here where they start
- 55:08attacking Roman, here comes Jimmy, here comes.
- 55:11Yeah. And they look over at Jacob like
- 55:15you're my brother. No, I'm not.
- 55:20And that's where they're not no more.
- 55:22And that's where all the everything starts cooking.
- 55:25We get Tonga loa, tama, Tonga ikaleo.
- 55:32Who else? Zilla like every one of them
- 55:35just come out of the woodwork and they have like a.
- 55:37Yeah, fucking bloodline versus bloodline.
- 55:41It's Survivor. Series Bloodline.
- 55:43Civil War Survivor Series. Yeah.
- 55:45Oh yeah, Nike. Could you imagine?

- 55:51Amazing. OK, your device is running low.
- 56:02Mini. May not have enough storage to
- 56:09continue recording. Have to clear a space to
- 56:10continue. It's almost over.
- 56:13OK, OK. All right.
- 56:18Before we go. Before we go.
- 56:19Before we go. Netflix again.
- 56:23I love talking about Netflix. What's the curse?
- 56:26First curse word. And who says it?
- 56:30Who says it? South Rollins.
- 56:33Seth fucking Rollins. Oh God.
- 56:37Do you know who I am? I'm Seth Fucking Rollins.
- 56:40Or is it Samantha Irving? Samantha.
- 56:43Samantha is going to. Be Samantha Seth fucking Rollins
- 56:52I love. That Oh my goodness, dear.
- 56:58At least CM Punk made a point to say like, if it, if somebody
- 57:04says it, it loses its meaning because we say they say bitch
- 57:08already, they say shit, they say some of the words, but if
- 57:11someone says it, it loses its meaning.
- 57:15Like if someone says it all the time, it loses its meaning.
- 57:17It loses the whole thing of why they're on Netflix.
- 57:20So like maybe throughout, sprinkle it here and there every
- 57:27few weeks, you know, have like a big thing somebody said have
- 57:32Triple H come out with Shawn Michaels and have them do the DX
- 57:36State of the Union address and actually say those words.
- 57:39Right. Like, these are the words that
- 57:42Netflix has told us that we cannot say, but they're going to
- 57:46say it anyways and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 57:47And they say it. That's fucking Rolands.
- 57:52Samantha Irving. LA Knight.
- 57:56F yeah. Well, I don't think he will
- 58:03because he's going to be on USA. Oh, that's right, that's right.

- 58:14in September, NXT to CW in October, and then rot on.
