- 2:01Speaker 6: We've got some news. We had a couple of things
- 2:03Speaker 6: to uh to cover here. Not a huge not a
- 2:06Speaker 6: huge card, but that's not how the Rumble card is nowadays.
- 2:10Speaker 6: It's actually pretty short.
- 2:11Speaker 3: Uh.
- 2:12Speaker 6: With that said, I think I'm going to bring out
- 2:16Speaker 6: Oh that's already started okay, m.
- 2:43Speaker 1: M m.
- 2:51Speaker 6: M Doyle, you drew number one on.
- 3:01Speaker 1: WHOA, it's me, It's me, It's the d O Y
- 3:04Speaker 1: l E. And I was thinking about this.
- 3:07Speaker 7: Has there ever been not one, but two rumbles this
- 3:12Speaker 7: wide open before?
- 3:14Speaker 1: I can't think of the time.
- 3:17Speaker 6: Dude, it's gonna be a pretty good one. I just
- 3:20Speaker 6: rewatched last year's rumble and uh, I'm just how far
- 3:25Speaker 6: we've come in over a year with storylines and and
- 3:28Speaker 6: just wrestlers who just aren't with the company no more.
- 3:31Speaker 6: And it's bananas. So I'm I'm pretty psyched for this rumble.
- 3:37Speaker 3: Uh with that?
- 3:39Speaker 6: All right, ship, where's number two? At here?
- 3:48Speaker 8: It comes?
- 4:00Speaker 1: Tell you.
- 4:03Speaker 5: It's just okay, okay, d knack of damn luck, damn did.
- 4:16Speaker 3: Like it's on me now it's.
- 4:20Speaker 5: I'm gonna get them all.
- 4:22Speaker 4: I'm gonna get them all.
- 4:25Speaker 6: Doyel stand on top of the announcers, came with me,
- 4:27Speaker 6: let's eat. Oh you dre welcome back?
- 4:36Speaker 3: Yo, yo? What do do PCW crew main event? Dre
- 4:40Speaker 3: Usso is now back on your podcast.
- 4:43Speaker 6: I love it. I love it. I just want to
- 4:47Speaker 6: step up on the desk here and you know, just
- 4:49Speaker 6: yeat all over the place every time I hear that
- 4:52Speaker 6: theme music, it's awesome. You know what made me think
- 4:55Speaker 6: last year's Rumble that's how they opened it. They opened
- 4:58Speaker 6: with with Jay and Jimmy, Like that's that's the kind
- 5:01Speaker 6: of entrance you know, you're open with, you know, that
- 5:04Speaker 6: kind of energy to start the rumble. But I mean,
- 5:07Speaker 6: those two guys, that was a hell of a number
- 5:10Speaker 6: one and two pick huh yeah.
- 5:15Speaker 3: And you can argue they probably had a better match
- 5:17Speaker 3: in those two minutes than they did a WrestleMania I
- 5:21Speaker 3: know that's right.
- 5:22Speaker 6: Yep, yep, yep, yep. You know, because like I'm thinking
- 5:25Speaker 6: like this year, like who who would we want to be?
- 5:29Speaker 6: Like number one number two entrance? Like somebody? Who can?
- 5:33Speaker 6: I mean, do we do ja Huso again it?
- 5:34Speaker 4: Who?
- 5:35Speaker 6: Who else do we do that that has a long,
- 5:37Speaker 6: lengthy entrance? Do we do Roman Reigns? Go yeah, Punk
- 5:42Speaker 6: and Drew, Oh my god? One and two just to
- 5:45Speaker 6: the bitter end, I'd like that, and number three would
- 5:48Speaker 6: be seth oh dude, right and as those three just
- 5:55Speaker 6: to the fucking the last four even like make it
- 5:58Speaker 6: to the bitter end, just like just going through hell
- 6:01Speaker 6: the whole rumble. God, I would love.
- 6:04Speaker 3: That Yeah, they got options. There's some possibilities. I mean
- 6:09Speaker 3: they could go Sammy KO one and two and then
- 6:12Speaker 3: Seth number three. Yeah, see if you try to tease
- 6:16Speaker 3: that little angle that they're going with Sammy. Yeah, you
- 6:21Speaker 3: brought up a good point. H Doyle Attom. I can't
- 6:23Speaker 3: remember the last time that it's been this wide open.
- 6:28Speaker 1: You can make a case in the men's match, you
- 6:30Speaker 1: can make a case for ten people, like a full
- 6:34Speaker 1: third of the entrance.
- 6:35Speaker 3: You know, there's legit storylines that could be run for
- 6:38Speaker 3: a bunch.
- 6:39Speaker 1: Yeah, and I can't remember that ever like that.
- 6:42Speaker 3: Man.
- 6:42Speaker 1: You know, sometimes it's usually you know, if you're lucky,
- 6:45Speaker 1: maybe three possibilities, Like I.
- 6:48Speaker 7: Think there's like ten guys you can you could make
- 6:50Speaker 7: a serious claim or make a serious case, could win it.
- 6:55Speaker 1: And on the women's side, you know it's it's five
- 6:58Speaker 1: or six, you know.
- 7:00Speaker 6: Yeah, all right, guys, well you know what, let's let's
- 7:02Speaker 6: get into this. Actually, you know what I want to
- 7:05Speaker 6: do is I think it might be better off if
- 7:08Speaker 6: I get into the news segment now before we break
- 7:11Speaker 6: into because damn, we got a lot to talk about,
- 7:14Speaker 6: a lot to cover here, guys. All right, let's get
- 7:16Speaker 6: right into the news here, hold.
- 7:17Speaker 9: On, news, I'll say, well, I've got news for you.
- 7:34Speaker 8: News flash.
- 7:35Speaker 6: All right, news guys. If you guys been hearing about
- 7:41Speaker 6: this Logan Paul Jake Paul fight, then they might have
- 7:45Speaker 6: a few days before WrestleMania. Is this a rumor? Is
- 7:50Speaker 6: this real? What's the story? Have you guys heard anything
- 7:52Speaker 6: about this? Do we want to see it? Do we
- 7:55Speaker 6: even care?
- 7:57Speaker 1: I have heard about it. I don't know if it's real,
- 7:59Speaker 1: and I don't give a ship.
- 8:03Speaker 3: I have not heard about I have not heard about it,
- 8:06Speaker 3: and I don't give a ship. All right, I've heard
- 8:10Speaker 3: about it until until I hear Logan Paul and or
- 8:15Speaker 3: Jake Paul versus a legitimate boxer. I don't give a
- 8:19Speaker 3: ship about who they fight. I mean a legit active
- 8:26Speaker 3: something right, but active ranked boxer in their prime or
- 8:32Speaker 3: approaching their prime. Somebody passed their prime, not some celebrity,
- 8:37Speaker 3: some dude who just got out the amateurs last weekend.
- 8:39Speaker 3: You're his first fight, fight a real boxer until they
- 8:45Speaker 3: fuck your whole boxing career.
- 8:47Speaker 6: Now, now, Doyle Dre, let me ask you guys. Do
- 8:50Speaker 6: you guys have brothers at all? Either?
- 8:52Speaker 3: Are I do not?
- 8:57Speaker 6: Okay, Trey question for you. Uh, I'm gonna pay you
- 9:02Speaker 6: three million dollars and your brother three million to beat
- 9:07Speaker 6: the ship out of each other on TV. Cool. Yeah, yeah, So,
- 9:14Speaker 6: I mean, like I understand it. I mean, but like
- 9:19Speaker 6: as crazy as to think that that's gonna draw money,
- 9:21Speaker 6: you know, Like.
- 9:24Speaker 3: But like, don't wrong. I'm not knocking their hustle right right.
- 9:27Speaker 3: I'm knocking the hustle for making money. They know how
- 9:30Speaker 3: to make money, they know how to market themselves. They've
- 9:33Speaker 3: clearly shown they can do that. I just feel like,
- 9:37Speaker 3: do that and expect me to take you seriously as
- 9:39Speaker 3: a boxer at the same time when you're doing this stuff. No,
- 9:44Speaker 3: you are an entertainer. It is a entertainer. It's it's
- 9:47Speaker 3: a spectacle. It's entertainment. I don't treat it as a
- 9:51Speaker 3: legitimate fight. I don't treat it as legitimate boxing much
- 10:00Speaker 3: twin Buss, just the entertainment showcase.
- 10:05Speaker 6: Uh, moving on. Did you guys catch the match on
- 10:10Speaker 6: RALL on Monday with the Judgment Day and the Viking Raiders.
- 10:17Speaker 6: Did you guys see the bumps that JD McDonough took,
- 10:21Speaker 6: including a assault outside the ring, back of that man's head
- 10:27Speaker 6: hit the announced table. I thought he was dead, he
- 10:32Speaker 6: got back up, he made the tag the crowd one
- 10:36Speaker 6: nuts for him because he was alive. And the fact
- 10:39Speaker 6: that they were joking about the size of his the
- 10:42Speaker 6: commentator was joking about the size of his head is
- 10:44Speaker 6: what saved him dying.
- 10:47Speaker 1: Well, that wasn't his injury though, I know that funny.
- 10:51Speaker 6: It's like that wasn't even his real injury. He had
- 10:54Speaker 6: like punk punctured lung and a couple of broken ribs.
- 10:57Speaker 3: Three broken ribs, three broken ribs, and a punctured on
- 11:01Speaker 3: But yeah, he fu.
- 11:04Speaker 6: Yeah, and that sucks because that, you know, like this
- 11:07Speaker 6: is like the worst time to get injured as a
- 11:09Speaker 6: wrestler because it's rumble season, it's the road to WrestleMania.
- 11:13Speaker 6: So you know, he's off the car now. And not
- 11:19Speaker 6: just that from the Women's Dakota Kai is now back
- 11:23Speaker 6: on the injured roster. I feel like she's spent most
- 11:27Speaker 6: of her time on the injured roster. It's FRAGILEI It's
- 11:33Speaker 6: it sucks it really, I.
- 11:35Speaker 3: Mean, granted, her saving it does, I mean her saving
- 11:38Speaker 3: grace is the fact that I guess quote is that
- 11:41Speaker 3: it's just a concussion, which nothing to be you know
- 11:45Speaker 3: nothing to sneeze that, but concussions can be recovered from
- 11:50Speaker 3: in a few weeks, as opposed to what JD has,
- 11:54Speaker 3: which is gonna put him on the shell for months. Right. Yeah.
- 12:00Speaker 3: And also apparently Apollo Cruise.
- 12:04Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I heard about that too. Damn, everybody's get
- 12:08Speaker 6: on an injured roster.
- 12:09Speaker 3: Uh.
- 12:11Speaker 6: Alexa Bliss was supposed to be on Raw.
- 12:15Speaker 10: Last the other Monday, this Monday, this coming Monday, and
- 12:20Speaker 10: uh or no, it was last Monday, and apparently she
- 12:24Speaker 10: tried to renegotiate her contract.
- 12:26Speaker 6: It didn't go so well. I guess now that you know,
- 12:29Speaker 6: she had the older contract before the Netflix deal, before
- 12:33Speaker 6: all this big money came in, before I mean we're
- 12:36Speaker 6: talking before Vince was even out of you know. This
- 12:41Speaker 6: is Alexa Bliss has been gone for a while a minute,
- 12:46Speaker 6: you know, and a lot of people think that maybe
- 12:48Speaker 6: she's kind of taken advantage of the system being gone
- 12:52Speaker 6: for so long and then coming back and trying to
- 12:56Speaker 6: renegotiate contract. And I guess it didn't go so well.
- 13:01Speaker 6: I don't know how much time she has left and
- 13:07Speaker 6: she's gonna stick around.
- 13:09Speaker 11: So that sucks because I'd get every dollar I could
- 13:15Speaker 11: if I was there.
- 13:16Speaker 1: They're literally risking their lives out there side camp.
- 13:20Speaker 7: I mean eventually, eventually somebody else blink, it'll get settled.
- 13:24Speaker 6: Great. Great. Uh. Example is Maria Kanellis when her and
- 13:29Speaker 6: I forget what her husband's name is, Mike, I want
- 13:34Speaker 6: to say Mike Canas right. Maybe anyway, they came to WW,
- 13:39Speaker 6: she got pregnant, they were taking off TV, and then
- 13:44Speaker 6: they came back, she got pregnant again. Then they kept
- 13:48Speaker 6: her on TV for a little bit kind of like,
- 13:50Speaker 6: you know, we need you to work. Remember she's twenty
- 13:53Speaker 6: four to seven champion. While she was pregnant. That was
- 13:56Speaker 6: a hot minute thing. And then uh, and then yeah,
- 13:59Speaker 6: they were off TV again. Then they got released. Like
- 14:04Speaker 6: but yeah, I mean quite some time. I don't exactly
- 14:09Speaker 6: know how long she's been gone.
- 14:14Speaker 3: It has been over a year.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Yeah, been gone.
- 14:17Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well over she went out.
- 14:22Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 14:22Speaker 3: Last thing she was doing, she was feuding. Which last
- 14:24Speaker 3: mantch she had. I think it was with Bianca Belair
- 14:27Speaker 3: at the Royal Rumble last year when they were teasing
- 14:31Speaker 3: the whole.
- 14:32Speaker 6: Twenty oh January twenty twenty three, is she left?
- 14:36Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say it wasn't last year.
- 14:39Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, Bliss lost to bel Air and Bella retained
- 14:45Speaker 6: the w W ROWL Wins Championship at the twenty twenty three.
- 14:48Speaker 3: Royal Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. It's been more more
- 14:52Speaker 3: than a year plus, damn.
- 14:57Speaker 6: Yeah, and it sucks, but we hope they.
- 15:01Speaker 3: Come around approach it approaching two years out for I mean,
- 15:05Speaker 3: like Doyle said, I mean, I don't falter for trying
- 15:08Speaker 3: to get her money, but at the same time, you
- 15:12Speaker 3: are under contract. WWE really has no reason to pay
- 15:17Speaker 3: you more, you know what they're currently paying you.
- 15:21Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean you gotta think if she comes back
- 15:23Speaker 7: and does a good job, you know, performs like she's
- 15:26Speaker 7: capable of performing, you gotta think her next contract will
- 15:30Speaker 7: be lucrative.
- 15:31Speaker 3: Yeah. Sure.
- 15:33Speaker 1: And I'm sure she's making decent money anyway.
- 15:35Speaker 7: I mean, I don't want to speculate what she makes,
- 15:37Speaker 7: but I'm sure it's nothing that needs at as it is.
- 15:41Speaker 3: It's not exactly married to a bump, all right. I
- 15:44Speaker 3: mean it's not like, right, Ryan, Ryan Cabrera. He's a musician,
- 15:50Speaker 3: So she's not exactly married to a bum, so.
- 15:55Speaker 1: Not like.
- 15:57Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think she's been doing things outside of
- 15:59Speaker 3: wrestling in the meantime. So yeah, she's not they ain't
- 16:04Speaker 3: not hurting for funds, and she's not struggling for things
- 16:07Speaker 3: to do. Yeah, she'd probably probably be a good idea
- 16:12Speaker 3: to maybe come back and prove yourself a little bit
- 16:15Speaker 3: more before trying to renegotiate the deal. If you've been
- 16:17Speaker 3: out for approaching two years.
- 16:20Speaker 1: Imagine that could be worked out as soon as Saturday.
- 16:25Speaker 6: Yeah. Imagine if you guys though, like were out of
- 16:28Speaker 6: your job for like two years, right, and then you
- 16:30Speaker 6: just came back here like the day you came back.
- 16:34Speaker 6: What more fucking money? They're like, what, Like, Yeah, I
- 16:38Speaker 6: want more fucking money. More vacation time too, which I
- 16:41Speaker 6: will take immediately after we negotiate this contract. I'm gonna
- 16:45Speaker 6: immediately take that vacation time. I need some time. I
- 16:49Speaker 6: don't know. That's just crazy when you think of it
- 16:51Speaker 6: like that.
- 16:54Speaker 3: Y'all will probably do exactly what w W we did
- 16:57Speaker 3: to her. What you can take it back to the
- 16:59Speaker 3: crib and think about that for a little bit.
- 17:01Speaker 6: Yeah, you come back when you're fucking saying.
- 17:04Speaker 1: Uh.
- 17:05Speaker 6: We talked about last episode Jordan and Grace being possibly
- 17:10Speaker 6: in the rumble. Well might be even higher chance because
- 17:14Speaker 6: now she is signed with WWE, she was a pretty
- 17:19Speaker 6: quick transition over to WW, especially right before the Rumble.
- 17:27Speaker 6: Last year she came in as a teena wrestler, and
- 17:30Speaker 6: this year she might come in as a WWE wrestler.
- 17:34Speaker 6: So that's awesome one of I mean, all three of
- 17:38Speaker 6: us kind of like we're hoping, expecting and probably now
- 17:43Speaker 6: we'll get it.
- 17:45Speaker 3: Yeah. It's been like the worst kept secret in WW
- 17:48Speaker 3: for the last couple of weeks on.
- 17:51Speaker 1: The wall for a while on that one, I think be.
- 17:54Speaker 6: Able to hide things so well, like who's the anonymous
- 17:57Speaker 6: wor Ald GM, Like who's the illegitimate so on of
- 18:00Speaker 6: Vince McMahon, you.
- 18:01Speaker 1: Know, but they were making it up as they went along,
- 18:07Speaker 1: I know, right.
- 18:09Speaker 6: Uh guys, it's been eight years to this day since
- 18:19Speaker 6: John Cena has become a sixteen time world champion, since
- 18:24Speaker 6: he has won his last championship eight years ago. That's
- 18:29Speaker 6: bananas to me, because there was a time where John
- 18:33Speaker 6: Cena was just unstoppable. This man was just getting title
- 18:37Speaker 6: shots and title runs after.
- 18:39Speaker 11: Title runs Super Sena, that's right, Super Sena, and this
- 18:44Speaker 11: seemed like.
- 18:44Speaker 6: There was no end in sight, and then just stopped
- 18:49Speaker 6: eight years ago and just less matches down to one
- 18:53Speaker 6: match a year. Sena was putting over guys. Uh, you
- 18:58Speaker 6: know he put solo over at a WrestleMania, which that
- 19:02Speaker 6: kind of shocked me.
- 19:04Speaker 1: You know what, he hasn't won a singles match and.
- 19:07Speaker 6: What a long time, in a very long time. Yeah,
- 19:11Speaker 6: he is a losing streak.
- 19:14Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like two thousand days or something like that.
- 19:18Speaker 3: Mh.
- 19:21Speaker 6: I'm like googling it right now because it's like al
- 19:26Speaker 6: Johnstons win was gonna change that. Oh, guys, listen to this.
- 19:31Speaker 6: Johnson his last singles win in ww was at the
- 19:34Speaker 6: Royal Rubble in twenty eighteen against Triple H. That's that
- 19:38Speaker 6: was two thousand, four hundred and forty nine days ago,
- 19:43Speaker 6: six years, eight months, thirteen days.
- 19:51Speaker 3: So he's got a losing streak longer than Romans championship reign.
- 19:54Speaker 6: Damn who else streak? Keith Slater had a losing streak
- 19:58Speaker 6: for a long time.
- 20:00Speaker 1: He had kids, He.
- 20:02Speaker 6: Did I don't give a fuck about your kids or
- 20:04Speaker 6: is that what Brock said, I don't give a shit
- 20:05Speaker 6: about your kids or something like that. Like that's crazy, though,
- 20:11Speaker 6: Scena needs Like I thought for sure, with the momentum
- 20:15Speaker 6: he had, he would have broken that record, but like
- 20:18Speaker 6: it makes me wonder if like there was a point
- 20:21Speaker 6: in his career where he was like, okay, like I
- 20:25Speaker 6: want to stop at sixteen, Like I don't care how
- 20:29Speaker 6: we get there, but like this is where I want
- 20:31Speaker 6: to stop. And I wonder if that's what happened, because then,
- 20:35Speaker 6: like I said, we just want like Jesus, like just.
- 20:40Speaker 7: I kind of a certain points they're gonna they're gonna
- 20:44Speaker 7: want to have someone that's a more recent and be
- 20:50Speaker 7: less shall we say problematic than Rick Flair as their
- 20:56Speaker 7: all time winning his champion or whatever. It wouldn't surprise
- 21:01Speaker 7: me if in this next year we see a belt
- 21:03Speaker 7: around mister seeing his way Steven, if it's just for
- 21:06Speaker 7: a cup of coffee.
- 21:08Speaker 6: Hey man, Rick Flair's had a cup of coffee. Fucking
- 21:12Speaker 6: title runs, I mean not all sixteen of those were
- 21:16Speaker 6: like long, lengthy title runs you know.
- 21:19Speaker 3: So you mean the other Flair.
- 21:22Speaker 1: Yeah, fair and fair, not fair and Flair.
- 21:26Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 21:28Speaker 7: So yeah, they're gonna have the record books are full
- 21:31Speaker 7: of it, full of the word Flair, aren't they.
- 21:33Speaker 6: Yeah. Uh guys, speaking of Triple H broke today WW
- 21:41Speaker 6: chief content officer at fourteen times World Champion Triple H
- 21:45Speaker 6: will headline the WW Hall of Fame class of twenty
- 21:48Speaker 6: twenty five. During a town hall for WW employees today,
- 21:52Speaker 6: Stephanie the undertaking Shawn Michaels surprised him with the announcement.
- 21:56Speaker 6: According to p W Insider, the induction will make Triple

- 22:04Speaker 6: was first introducted in twenty nineteen as part of D Generation.
- 22:08Speaker 1: X two Things A.
- 22:11Speaker 7: You gotta figure evolutions will go in eventually, right fuck?
- 22:16Speaker 1: And he I guess.
- 22:18Speaker 7: I guess this means that Batista doesn't go in, right,
- 22:20Speaker 7: because I can't see them having both of them in
- 22:22Speaker 7: the same year. And Batista was supposed to go in
- 22:26Speaker 7: in twenty twenty and then that was canceled and he
- 22:29Speaker 7: still hasn't got in.
- 22:31Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, Like.
- 22:34Speaker 7: We always say, Batista, this is the year, and then
- 22:36Speaker 7: he doesn't do it. So I think I'm guessing this
- 22:39Speaker 7: is yet another Bautista this year in the Hall of Fame.
- 22:45Speaker 8: Is what it is.
- 22:46Speaker 6: Drafts to the story's gonna have to wait till next year.
- 22:51Speaker 3: Yep. I guess The only question is who are all
- 22:54Speaker 3: the supplemental people that go in? Who's the token black
- 23:00Speaker 3: inductee this year. Who's the token woman.
- 23:05Speaker 6: Token celebrity? Ah what low b liss celebrity snookie? Yeah,
- 23:14Speaker 6: don't you fucking dare Johnny Knoxville. Don't you put that
- 23:19Speaker 6: on this soil that he is. He's all great now.
- 23:26Speaker 6: I can see them putting his ass in the Hall
- 23:27Speaker 6: of Fame. He only did like a jackass stunt a
- 23:30Speaker 6: few years ago. Yeah, who's still I don't know who?
- 23:34Speaker 3: If I'm gonna if I'm gonna make predictions now on
- 23:36Speaker 3: who they will be token black inductee. Damn. I was
- 23:40Speaker 3: gonna say Cocobe where but I think he's already in. Yeah, Okay,
- 23:45Speaker 3: I'm still blanking on the token black, the token woman.
- 23:48Speaker 3: I think it might be Victoria Yeah, and celebrity. Yeah. Shoot,
- 23:54Speaker 3: I'll stick with Johnny Knoxville. I'll throw that out there.
- 24:00Speaker 6: I don't know who the cool umaga. These are the
- 24:04Speaker 6: ones I'm seeing potential, the hardy boys, Michelle McCool. There
- 24:13Speaker 6: some people I could definitely see put in you. Johnny
- 24:16Speaker 6: Knoxville is on here, son of a best dude, this
- 24:20Speaker 6: is that's a this is sportster dot com.
- 24:24Speaker 1: Ok, but he's got to be what do.
- 24:27Speaker 6: You guys, feel about Bray Wyatt or do you feel
- 24:30Speaker 6: like it's I mean, the man's passed away. When do
- 24:34Speaker 6: you say like it's time. Everybody's still like it's too soon,
- 24:40Speaker 6: too soon? Okay, I guess from the families.
- 24:46Speaker 3: I don't know whenever they have an open year that
- 24:48Speaker 3: they're not giving it to somebody else to headline.
- 24:52Speaker 7: Well, and also remember they can only put they'll only
- 24:55Speaker 7: put so many dead people here and there. Also because
- 24:57Speaker 7: they hate reminds a lot of these guys don't live
- 25:00Speaker 7: to see forty five, right, and.
- 25:05Speaker 3: If yeah, and also if, oh girl, if his widow
- 25:12Speaker 3: is now potentially working with a w that could push
- 25:17Speaker 3: it out a while as well, unless they come to
- 25:19Speaker 3: some sort of agreement that enables her to attend, because
- 25:24Speaker 3: presumably she would be the one to accept on his behalf.
- 25:28Speaker 3: I would assume unless they I.
- 25:30Speaker 7: Think something like that they could work that something out
- 25:34Speaker 7: for that I would I would hope.
- 25:36Speaker 3: I'm sure they could. But I can also see ww
- 25:39Speaker 3: being paid like that's true.
- 25:46Speaker 6: We'll find out. I'm kind of interested for the Hall
- 25:49Speaker 6: of Fame this year. I mean, I'm a triple H
- 25:52Speaker 6: mark through and through, so I'm pretty excited.
- 25:56Speaker 3: A real quick I just wonder if they're how when
- 26:00Speaker 3: they're going to do it. Are they still going to
- 26:02Speaker 3: stick with the whole Friday after SmackDown format because they're
- 26:06Speaker 3: gonna saw some report or the story that that is
- 26:11Speaker 3: they weren't I guess they weren't too happy with the
- 26:14Speaker 3: ratings from last year or something from last year is
- 26:17Speaker 3: that they weren't too happy about. And it kind of
- 26:20Speaker 3: stemmed from, Oh, it was the attendance last year.
- 26:25Speaker 1: People left or something.
- 26:26Speaker 3: A lot of people, Yeah, remember they started last year.
- 26:28Speaker 3: Paul Hamian was the first one. Yes, So they had
- 26:31Speaker 3: SmackDown and then the Hall of Fame induction and Paul
- 26:35Speaker 3: Hamian was the first one inducted, and right after he
- 26:38Speaker 3: was inducted, a lot of people left.
- 26:41Speaker 1: Well, what else would they do it? Though?
- 26:48Speaker 7: I would think Saturday Saturday afternoon, you get the NXT
- 26:51Speaker 7: pay per view, Saturday night, you got WrestleMania Night one.
- 26:55Speaker 1: I mean with Sunday afternoon.
- 26:57Speaker 3: Do it on a Thursday or something. Maybe it doesn't.
- 27:00Speaker 3: I understand that why they understand why they do it Friday,
- 27:03Speaker 3: because obviously they want to lead in from the SmackDown crowd,
- 27:07Speaker 3: but you're also asking people will stay up at like
- 27:10Speaker 3: ten o'clock to this after they've always well, really it'd
- 27:14Speaker 3: be eleven because SmackDown's three hours now? Or will they
- 27:17Speaker 3: have an abbreviated episode this year.
- 27:21Speaker 6: The speeches and then and then finally gets to the
- 27:25Speaker 6: one you want? Yeah, I agree?
- 27:27Speaker 3: Right, do you're asking people to stay up really late
- 27:29Speaker 3: for this? So do you hold your place to the
- 27:32Speaker 3: end and have people trying to try to make people
- 27:34Speaker 3: hang out till freaking past midnight for this shit? Or
- 27:37Speaker 3: do you do it at the beginning and then risk
- 27:40Speaker 3: people walking out after they've seen the main headliner what
- 27:45Speaker 3: we consider. Yeah, they should probably reconsider how they do
- 27:48Speaker 3: this and maybe move it off of Friday after SmackDown
- 27:52Speaker 3: and maybe consider making it its own thing on its
- 27:54Speaker 3: own day. And Thursday wouldn't be a bad idea. Thursday
- 27:58Speaker 3: your Hall of Fame, Friday, you go home, SmackDown, Saturday,
- 28:02Speaker 3: Sunday WrestleMania to be its own thing on Thursday, like o'clock.
- 28:05Speaker 3: You got this deal with Netflix now or work out
- 28:08Speaker 3: something with USA?
- 28:10Speaker 7: Right?
- 28:11Speaker 6: Yeah, very true? Right true? All right, let's let's dig
- 28:16Speaker 6: into this car. That's all I got for news, unless
- 28:18Speaker 6: you guys have heard anything else that I I was
- 28:22Speaker 6: hoging in the news again. I heard the reason why
- 28:26Speaker 6: he wasn't at Saturday Night made event is because his
- 28:29Speaker 6: son was getting married.
- 28:30Speaker 3: Brother.
- 28:32Speaker 1: Yeah, like he didn't realize that his son.
- 28:34Speaker 7: Oops, I forgot my son was getting married the same
- 28:37Speaker 7: night as Saturday and night Saturday Night's main event.
- 28:40Speaker 1: That's that story makes no sense.
- 28:46Speaker 6: I had to pull up the sleepless nest.
- 28:50Speaker 1: This guy.
- 28:51Speaker 6: I wonder, how do you think Hulk were a band
- 28:54Speaker 6: down into the wedding.
- 28:57Speaker 3: Oh, I'm sure he didn't leave the house with out
- 28:59Speaker 3: of band in anymore.
- 29:02Speaker 6: I wonder bands.
- 29:05Speaker 3: That man his hair lies literally on the back of
- 29:07Speaker 3: his neck.
- 29:07Speaker 6: Now, all right, yo, now we'll talk about when we
- 29:15Speaker 6: get to the rumble. I think, what do you now?
- 29:20Speaker 6: I'm gonna fucking say it. Now, what are the chances
- 29:23Speaker 6: of like Hogan showing up with the rumble and then
- 29:25Speaker 6: Punk throws them out? I think we talked about this, right, Yeah,
- 29:30Speaker 6: we did.
- 29:31Speaker 3: Literally zero. That man cannot anymore.
- 29:35Speaker 6: I know, I think about it though, the pop. I
- 29:37Speaker 6: think about the pop. But yeah, you're right, he would die.
- 29:41Speaker 6: He would die instantly. All right, rumble is going to
- 29:46Speaker 6: be held February first, Indianapolis, Indiana, Lucas Oil Stadium. This
- 29:53Speaker 6: is right after Saturnay.
- 29:55Speaker 1: This is gonna be huge. By the way, they've.
- 29:58Speaker 7: Sold almost uh sixty three thousand tickets what I think
- 30:03Speaker 7: there's only a thousand.
- 30:05Speaker 1: Or so available.
- 30:08Speaker 7: On ticket Master anyway, according to Wressell Tickets Wrestle Tics, rather.
- 30:14Speaker 1: The biggest Rumble ever.
- 30:16Speaker 7: Attendance wise, Also the first one in February, a very
- 30:20Speaker 7: interesting little tidbit, always been in January.
- 30:23Speaker 6: Yeah, that's huge, I mean consideringly.
- 30:26Speaker 1: Gonna have a different deal. It's gonna be huge. There's
- 30:29Speaker 1: never been a been a stadium show for Rumble before,
- 30:33Speaker 1: so this is gonna be It's gonna be big.
- 30:36Speaker 11: Yeah.
- 30:37Speaker 6: And for such a big Rumble, they're gonna kick off
- 30:41Speaker 6: the show probably maybe, who knows. We got the two
- 30:47Speaker 6: out of three falls match for the ww Tag Team Championship.
- 30:53Speaker 6: All right, guys, we got d I Y, Johnny Gargano
- 30:56Speaker 6: and Tamasa Champa. This is the Motor Motor is shitty
- 31:01Speaker 6: Motor City machine Guns, Alex Shelley and uh Chris Saban.
- 31:09Speaker 6: Uh you know what this is. Honestly, this could be
- 31:17Speaker 6: the match besides Rumble aside, this could be the match
- 31:21Speaker 6: of the night. I mean, if these guys could put
- 31:24Speaker 6: on a hell of a fucking match. Two out of three's.
- 31:27Speaker 6: I don't know how I feel about having a two
- 31:29Speaker 6: out of three falls. I figured maybe we could have
- 31:31Speaker 6: fit another match on this card. I mean we only
- 31:34Speaker 6: got four matches.
- 31:38Speaker 1: Last year.
- 31:39Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, right, four last year. Yeah, this is the
- 31:43Speaker 6: format now, and uh, I mean, are we we're going
- 31:47Speaker 6: for quality here?
- 31:48Speaker 3: Right?
- 31:49Speaker 6: I mean we're not going for quantity.
- 31:51Speaker 3: It works for this show when you got to rumble
- 31:54Speaker 3: matches that can easily go an hour each themselves.
- 32:00Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I in this match, you're get a
- 32:02Speaker 7: figure it's gonna be at least twenty minutes if not thirty,
- 32:06Speaker 7: and the ladder match should be at least half an
- 32:07Speaker 7: hour if not forty.
- 32:09Speaker 3: Right, right, there's your three hour show right there. Yeah.
- 32:14Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm just like thinking, like like I don't know,
- 32:17Speaker 6: we'll go back like twenty years, like two thousand and five.
- 32:21Speaker 6: I'm looking just randomly. It's like six matches on the
- 32:24Speaker 6: car six ' seven, Like, yeah, this match is just
- 32:27Speaker 6: so much more. I'm just glad we're getting down a
- 32:30Speaker 6: quality here. Yeah.
- 32:33Speaker 7: There's always a championship, there's always a world champion match,
- 32:36Speaker 7: almost always an icy title match.
- 32:41Speaker 6: Now Gunter. Yeah, we just have you know, doesn't have
- 32:45Speaker 6: a match on here. Niceties champion, doesn't have a match.
- 32:48Speaker 6: Intercondal champion, doesn't have a match, you know, because we're
- 32:53Speaker 6: expecting all these people in the rumble. Well except for
- 32:57Speaker 6: kun who there really has a a night off, huh.
- 33:03Speaker 7: I mean basically Gutter's had a lot of nights.
- 33:07Speaker 6: Yeah, but he's the He's a vastly I don't know,
- 33:11Speaker 6: I I definitely see the difference between champions between him
- 33:15Speaker 6: and Cody. I mean he's like a to me, Goods
- 33:17Speaker 6: is more of a prized champion, a prize fighter, like
- 33:20Speaker 6: when when he's always you know, bring the next opponent,
- 33:27Speaker 6: bring him like, I'll fight anybody kind of guy, you know,
- 33:31Speaker 6: And Cody's just Cody's just.
- 33:34Speaker 1: What do you guys want to talk about?
- 33:37Speaker 3: Yeah, they've kind of low key just flipped the script
- 33:39Speaker 3: from what they were before, when Roman was the w
- 33:42Speaker 3: W champion making sporadic appearances and Seth was the world
- 33:47Speaker 3: champion and he was the workhorse. Now Cody is the
- 33:51Speaker 3: w W champion, is more of the workhorse, and Goutz
- 33:54Speaker 3: is the one making occasional appearances.
- 33:59Speaker 6: Yeah right, Yeah, but for this this tag match, I
- 34:05Speaker 6: could see Garget d I I getting the first pinfall
- 34:11Speaker 6: and uh and getting the last one. I just see
- 34:17Speaker 6: a really good quality match. But at the end of
- 34:18Speaker 6: the day, I see DY. I think it's too early
- 34:21Speaker 6: for them to lose these titles. They just got them,
- 34:25Speaker 6: and it's been so long to try to get these
- 34:27Speaker 6: guys to turn Heel to to be a functional tag
- 34:31Speaker 6: team again, a liked tag team again, and they got momentum.
- 34:36Speaker 6: I think this will be a good feud, but I
- 34:39Speaker 6: think they're walking out still champs.
- 34:43Speaker 3: DRE Yeah, I agree. I mean, right now, this is
- 34:49Speaker 3: probably the most interesting that the tag team division has
- 34:52Speaker 3: been in quite some time, and there's not really much
- 34:59Speaker 3: I don't really see much story and Motor City Machine
- 35:04Speaker 3: Guns becoming champion again. Right now, the story and the
- 35:07Speaker 3: interest is all in D I Y and they're you know,
- 35:12Speaker 3: they're tactics or whatever they can do to keep people
- 35:16Speaker 3: off of their tail or to retain the titles, you know,
- 35:20Speaker 3: as there's always the case. Usually there's a lot more
- 35:21Speaker 3: interest when the Heels are the champion. There's more storyline
- 35:25Speaker 3: there so no reason for them to take the titles
- 35:28Speaker 3: off of them. I could see them actually holding on
- 35:30Speaker 3: to the titles for quite some time until somebody finally
- 35:34Speaker 3: rises up to get revenge on them or to finally
- 35:38Speaker 3: take them down. So yeah, d I why is more
- 35:42Speaker 3: likely going to retain. It's probably gonna involve some sort
- 35:45Speaker 3: of cheating or shenanigans. Wonder if there'll be in the
- 35:48Speaker 3: outside interference, but could be, could not be, But definitely
- 35:54Speaker 3: d I WI is going to walk out retain the titles.
- 36:01Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I pretty much agree with you guys.
- 36:04Speaker 7: It should be as far as work rate goes, should
- 36:07Speaker 7: be great, you know, it should be good tag team wrestling.
- 36:11Speaker 7: But and it does seem like they are finally putting
- 36:15Speaker 7: some effort into the tag division after so many starts
- 36:18Speaker 7: and stops and and uh you get just getting lost
- 36:21Speaker 7: in the shuffle or whatever. But that process is kind
- 36:24Speaker 7: of at the start. And I don't really care all
- 36:26Speaker 7: that much, to be honest with you. Uh yeah, I
- 36:30Speaker 7: want to say DIY retains a because they just got
- 36:34Speaker 7: the titles. What the FUCKO would it be to take
- 36:36Speaker 7: them off of them already? And uh be, I think
- 36:40Speaker 7: and I think it's gonna be babyfaces from here on
- 36:42Speaker 7: out winning, so might as well get a heel victory
- 36:47Speaker 7: while you can uh, and I think this will be
- 36:49Speaker 7: the heel victory for the show.
- 36:52Speaker 6: Cool. All right, let's move on to Cody Rhodes KO.
- 37:03Speaker 6: In this ladder match for the undisputed WW Championship and
- 37:08Speaker 6: the Winged Eagle Championship, we will both be suspended above
- 37:13Speaker 6: the ring, which is awesome. I'm enjoying this little feud
- 37:19Speaker 6: here with Ko. I mean, to be honest, I think
- 37:22Speaker 6: Ko makes any kind of feud, even though it's boring
- 37:25Speaker 6: a few, it's interesting. I mean, this has been quite
- 37:30Speaker 6: a long feud, quite a build. God what I love
- 37:37Speaker 6: to see Ko with an undisputed title. I mean, he
- 37:42Speaker 6: was only Universal Champion for such a short time and
- 37:46Speaker 6: lost it to Goldberg, and then he wasn't championed again
- 37:52Speaker 6: for a very very very long time. Still isn't. But unfortunately,
- 37:59Speaker 6: I you know, Cody Rose is going to retain, and
- 38:04Speaker 6: maybe he decides to keep the Winged Eagle Championship belt.
- 38:09Speaker 6: I mean, I think that'd be cool, a nice way
- 38:11Speaker 6: to transition to you know what, I think I'm gonna
- 38:14Speaker 6: keep this one. If I have to get rid of one,
- 38:16Speaker 6: I think I'm gonna keep this one. I think that'd
- 38:19Speaker 6: be cool, great way to transition to one of those titles.
- 38:25Speaker 6: But uh, I don't know. I don't know what they're
- 38:29Speaker 6: gonna do about that. I hope they don't continue with
- 38:33Speaker 6: the current version. I feel like they it's a good
- 38:35Speaker 6: opportunity to maybe sell some of those older titles like
- 38:38Speaker 6: a newer I don't know. I haven't looked at the title, Like,
- 38:42Speaker 6: I haven't got a really good look at it. Is
- 38:43Speaker 6: there a new logo on it? Or is it the
- 38:46Speaker 6: old fashioned logo? Like I'm sure it doesn't say w.
- 38:50Speaker 3: W F it's no, it's the oldest federation logo, just WWE.
- 38:55Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 38:56Speaker 6: Yeah, I was just curious, like I didn't know if
- 38:58Speaker 6: they kind of like get a more modern day look
- 39:02Speaker 6: or touched anything on it. But no, I always like
- 39:08Speaker 6: that title. I like the way the goal doesn't fully
- 39:13Speaker 6: form to the leather because like when you're wearing it
- 39:16Speaker 6: around the waist, the eagle will kind of sticks out around,
- 39:20Speaker 6: you know, past the leather, which I always thought was
- 39:23Speaker 6: kind of cool. So like when you see KO have
- 39:27Speaker 6: it over your shoulder, you know, you see that eagle
- 39:30Speaker 6: doesn't bend with the leather. I was like that, but yeah,
- 39:36Speaker 6: I I I'm trying to think of who would interfere
- 39:42Speaker 6: in this sanch. But I don't think we're gonna get
- 39:43Speaker 6: any kind of shaggings. I think it's just gonna be
- 39:46Speaker 6: these two. And Kao doesn't really have a good uh
- 39:55Speaker 6: track record at the rumble, I don't. I don't think so.
- 39:58Speaker 6: I think he's been I think he didn't. He have
- 40:01Speaker 6: a match with I want to say Roman Reigns twenty three.
- 40:06Speaker 6: Yeah he lost, yeah, yeah, yes, yeah, that's when he
- 40:10Speaker 6: was handcuffed, right m and they cook at the key
- 40:14Speaker 6: or some shit. Oh man, Yeah.
- 40:18Speaker 3: Yeah, that's when he got handcuffed and they tried to
- 40:20Speaker 3: make Sammy finish him off and see me crack rowing
- 40:22Speaker 3: in the back leading to Sammy versus Roman elimination chamber.
- 40:28Speaker 6: Yeah, he just gets so close to it that, you know,
- 40:31Speaker 6: and just never gets it. But yeah, I mean, Drey,
- 40:37Speaker 6: what are you thinking, Cody?
- 40:40Speaker 3: Cody's retaining Cody is not going to claim the winged
- 40:44Speaker 3: Eagle belt. That winged Egel belt is nice piece of nostalgia,
- 40:48Speaker 3: but quite frankly, it looks dated. Okay, yeah, nothing against it.
- 40:54Speaker 3: I like the belt as much as everybody else, but
- 40:57Speaker 3: it looks dated, small, it looks like it was designed
- 41:02Speaker 3: for standard definition television as opposed to today's four K world.
- 41:10Speaker 3: The details just don't pop on it like that. So no,
- 41:15Speaker 3: he's not gonna sit there and win. And plus it's
- 41:19Speaker 3: not actually a title. It was a prop for the
- 41:23Speaker 3: show that night. It's not actually up for grabs.
- 41:27Speaker 1: Man.
- 41:33Speaker 3: There's only one title that's up there that suspended that's
- 41:35Speaker 3: legitimately on the line, which is why this is so
- 41:40Speaker 3: fucking stupid. In the first damn place, to even make
- 41:43Speaker 3: it a ladder match, somebody grabbed a prop and said,
- 41:46Speaker 3: I'm the champion. Now, fine, well you'll defend it. Fuck
- 41:50Speaker 3: out of here. This is just like a real dumb
- 41:53Speaker 3: ass way to get to a ladder match, to get
- 41:56Speaker 3: to a gimmick match. The match is so, I'm sure
- 42:00Speaker 3: it's going to be great, but this was a real
- 42:02Speaker 3: stupid way to get there, making somebody defend a title
- 42:07Speaker 3: that they don't actually that's not actually acknowledged. It's not
- 42:13Speaker 3: even like the match ended in some controversial fashion or something.
- 42:17Speaker 3: It would be one thing if they, if we at
- 42:18Speaker 3: least had like a controversial finish to their first match
- 42:22Speaker 3: to give him some legitimate claim. They don't even acknowledge
- 42:26Speaker 3: that they don't acknowledge that the referee counted the three
- 42:29Speaker 3: from outside of the ring or any of that other shit.
- 42:33Speaker 6: It's not like, remind me, how is the situation with
- 42:37Speaker 6: Razor Ramon and Sean Michaels in an intercontinental title? Was
- 42:40Speaker 6: it similar?
- 42:43Speaker 1: How?
- 42:43Speaker 6: I forget how that situation was. How we end up
- 42:46Speaker 6: with two IC titles?
- 42:50Speaker 3: Shit, I don't remember. I have to look it up
- 42:52Speaker 3: to go back and see.
- 42:53Speaker 7: I think Michael's lost it due to injury or something.
- 42:56Speaker 7: And then when he came back he was like, I
- 42:58Speaker 7: never lost this belt. Yeah, it might have been something
- 43:01Speaker 7: like that.
- 43:01Speaker 3: Yeah, because he came back with the same They basically
- 43:05Speaker 3: had two of the same belt, and yeah, you might
- 43:08Speaker 3: be right about that. Maybe something that. Yeah, Seawn never
- 43:11Speaker 3: lost the title, he just had to vacate it. And
- 43:13Speaker 3: then he came back like that, Yeah, because he was
- 43:15Speaker 3: making that whole same real intercontinental champion claim. But guess
- 43:20Speaker 3: what he didn't go grab some old damn seventies plate,
- 43:23Speaker 3: a freaking you know, J C. Penny leather and some
- 43:26Speaker 3: damn ten can tops that say, I see on a
- 43:29Speaker 3: mission Talbot, I'm the champion now. Anyway, like I said,
- 43:36Speaker 3: Cody's gonna retain and he's gonna take his four k
- 43:40Speaker 3: WWE title and we're gonna move on. Yeah, but I'll
- 43:48Speaker 3: give credit to Ko and his he'll work, he's having
- 43:51Speaker 3: he is at least doing great. He'll work in this
- 43:53Speaker 3: field right now. He could have he could have the
- 43:56Speaker 3: twenty twenty five that Drew Reconds are head last.
- 44:01Speaker 6: Year, Doyle, Let's hear your opinion.
- 44:07Speaker 7: But well, you know, h k I was doing some
- 44:12Speaker 7: of the best work of his career right now, and that's, uh,
- 44:16Speaker 7: that's a pretty high bar to clear because he's been,
- 44:18Speaker 7: uh he's been really good for a long time, you know,
- 44:22Speaker 7: and it makes all the sense in the world to
- 44:24Speaker 7: put the title on him right now, you know, it
- 44:26Speaker 7: really does. Uh, you know, like a lot of babyfaces,
- 44:30Speaker 7: I think Cody is just much better as a chaser
- 44:32Speaker 7: than he is as a challenger.
- 44:35Speaker 1: And I really think, uh that Ko is going to
- 44:38Speaker 1: defeat Cody Rhodes and win the title on Saturday.
- 44:42Speaker 7: That's what I would be saying if this match was
- 44:45Speaker 7: happening almost any other time of the year except right
- 44:48Speaker 7: before WrestleMania, right because there's no way in hell Cody's
- 44:51Speaker 7: gonna lose.
- 44:52Speaker 1: I mean, I suppose, I suppose he could lose.
- 44:56Speaker 7: And then win it right back somehow or something, know,
- 45:00Speaker 7: but that wouldn't make any sense or really you know, unfortunately,
- 45:05Speaker 7: I think Ko is Zerope Europe has that chance here.
- 45:10Speaker 7: But I think they'll still be a fun watch and
- 45:13Speaker 7: I think, uh, you know, this match could affect various
- 45:16Speaker 7: other storylines going forward, and it's kind of this is
- 45:20Speaker 7: you know, sometimes they talk about what order of the
- 45:22Speaker 7: matches end up happening, and uh may affect each other.
- 45:26Speaker 3: You know.
- 45:26Speaker 1: I think Wayne, you said you don't see any any
- 45:30Speaker 1: room for Shenanigan to this match. I couldn't disagree with
- 45:33Speaker 1: you more.
- 45:34Speaker 6: Well, I thought more people be focused on the rumble,
- 45:37Speaker 6: uh the competitors, but.
- 45:41Speaker 1: I mean could be.
- 45:44Speaker 7: But I mean, like where's Sammy and all of this?
- 45:46Speaker 7: You know, does does Kao count on him to come interfere?
- 45:50Speaker 7: And then does he you know? If he doesn't, does
- 45:54Speaker 7: Ko then try to screw him in the rumble? You
- 45:56Speaker 7: know if if this match happens before the men's rumble,
- 45:59Speaker 7: you know, if he does, you know, does he make
- 46:02Speaker 7: another mistake and accidentally kick Cody, you know, or does
- 46:05Speaker 7: he straight up to I mean I think he could
- 46:07Speaker 7: straight up turn you know, he's got all the telltale
- 46:09Speaker 7: signs of I'm about to turn.
- 46:11Speaker 1: Heel uh, and he's kind of had him for a while.
- 46:16Speaker 1: I I was.
- 46:17Speaker 7: Gonna kind of go on this Sammy tangent, but I'll
- 46:20Speaker 7: do it now while I'm talking about him.
- 46:23Speaker 1: I think he might be a candidate to win.
- 46:25Speaker 7: You know, we were I think I Discord said something like,
- 46:28Speaker 7: are we gonna get Sammy Koh at WrestleMania?
- 46:30Speaker 1: And I think we might, but next year.
- 46:34Speaker 7: Because I think the roy rumbles in Saudi Arabia, right,
- 46:38Speaker 7: So I think I think I might look to Sammy
- 46:41Speaker 7: to win that one maybe and set up the WrestleMania
- 46:44Speaker 7: match with Ko anyway, but I think Randy also may
- 46:48Speaker 7: have something to do with this match, you know.
- 46:51Speaker 1: Does that affect his entry into the Rumble?
- 46:54Speaker 7: I mean, he's not confirmed, but I think we assume
- 46:56Speaker 7: he's gonna be in the Rumble.
- 46:59Speaker 1: Yes, I mean I think Cody retains.
- 47:01Speaker 7: But this match is not without intrigue, I don't think,
- 47:05Speaker 7: especially because this is just has the potential anyway to
- 47:09Speaker 7: effect the Rumble itself.
- 47:11Speaker 1: Or several other matches going forward.
- 47:14Speaker 7: I do think that the wing giggle looks like fucking
- 47:17Speaker 7: dog shit on television, But I do wonder if maybe
- 47:21Speaker 7: going forward with this, we get a new belt. You know,
- 47:25Speaker 7: I think Cody has been teasing this entire time he's
- 47:27Speaker 7: been champion and that he wants to have.
- 47:29Speaker 1: A new belt.
- 47:31Speaker 7: So maybe we get a kind of modern update on
- 47:33Speaker 7: the Wing Diagle going forward.
- 47:35Speaker 1: Perhaps maybe just something to keep an eye on. But yeah,
- 47:39Speaker 1: I think it's.
- 47:40Speaker 3: Cody, that is one thing to be said. And since
- 47:44Speaker 3: they've had this current iteration of the WW title as
- 47:50Speaker 3: we haven't had a super accustomed superstar version of it,
- 47:55Speaker 3: probably since what Daniel Bryan's Hip belt.
- 48:00Speaker 1: I thought that was so funny.
- 48:03Speaker 3: Which I don't know for me, I thought that was
- 48:05Speaker 3: a dope ass belt, but that awesome. Yeah, that's probably
- 48:08Speaker 3: the last. That's like the one and only custom WW
- 48:11Speaker 3: belt we've had in this iteration. Whereas the Spinner Belt,
- 48:16Speaker 3: well it started off as the Spinner for Sina, then
- 48:19Speaker 3: we had the rated R version, we had the upside
- 48:21Speaker 3: down Miz version, you know, attitude there, a Stone Cold
- 48:25Speaker 3: had his smoking skull, the Rock was supposed to have
- 48:29Speaker 3: supposed to have the Brahma Ball even though it never
- 48:30Speaker 3: made it the television, and now it's just as the
- 48:33Speaker 3: People's Championship but.
- 48:37Speaker 1: Yeah, that might just be something fun to look forward
- 48:39Speaker 1: to going forward.
- 48:40Speaker 3: But I would think if anybody would warrant a custom
- 48:44Speaker 3: version of this belt, it would be Cody, right, Yeah,
- 48:50Speaker 3: and it doesn't hurt that his American Nightmare logo loosely
- 48:55Speaker 3: shares her shape with it. I could see them kind of.
- 48:58Speaker 3: I could see an adaptation of his logo maybe into
- 49:01Speaker 3: the belt is his own custom version. But I could
- 49:04Speaker 3: also see WW being very corporate branding and identity conscious
- 49:10Speaker 3: and saying that, Nope, everybody's associated with this. We're giving
- 49:14Speaker 3: these fuckers out to everybody who wins titles, so we're
- 49:18Speaker 3: just gonna keep it as this sidebar. If Philly wins
- 49:21Speaker 3: the Super Bowl, I may strongly consider buying either the
- 49:27Speaker 3: either the Philadelphia Eagles belt that they came out when
- 49:29Speaker 3: they did those NFL belts some years ago, or if
- 49:32Speaker 3: they put out some sort of Eagles Champion edition version
- 49:36Speaker 3: of the WW title. Yeah, you boy might drop some
- 49:40Speaker 3: coin on that.
- 49:48Speaker 11: All right, let's get some juicy stuff here, let's talk
- 49:51Speaker 11: about let's talk about the women's rule guys. All right,
- 49:57Speaker 11: I'm gonna name off who's art in it. We already
- 50:01Speaker 11: have ten out of thirty only ten.
- 50:04Speaker 6: We have Nya Jacks from SmackDown or Yeah, Bailey from Rawl,
- 50:10Speaker 6: Charlotte just announced from SmackDown, Naomi from SmackDown, Bianca bell
- 50:16Speaker 6: Air from SmackDown Live, Morgan and Markel Rodriguez from RALE,
- 50:21Speaker 6: Lyra Valkyrie, Ivy Nile and EO Sky all from RALE.
- 50:26Speaker 6: That's all who we have listed. Now we know that
- 50:33Speaker 6: Becky's gonna probably be in it, right, so that's eleven.
- 50:38Speaker 6: Give me some more? Who else? Who else we got?
- 50:40Speaker 6: Let's let's fill this rest of this roster up here?
- 50:45Speaker 6: Give me some other names.
- 50:48Speaker 1: Jordan Grace obviously Jordan Grace, meam.
- 50:56Speaker 7: Misha Slamovich, the current Women's TNA champion.
- 51:00Speaker 3: Arey possible rock Stamperez.
- 51:03Speaker 7: As Julia, any of I think there's gonna be a
- 51:08Speaker 7: lot of NXT ladies.
- 51:09Speaker 3: Tally, I could.
- 51:11Speaker 7: See Corva, Jade lash Legends, the Ryer, whatever her name is.
- 51:21Speaker 3: You're making a good showing potentially returning Jade Cargill.
- 51:25Speaker 7: What about a Ja Cargo what somebody somebody from NXT
- 51:31Speaker 7: I'd like to see.
- 51:32Speaker 3: Uh?
- 51:32Speaker 1: And you know we taught we talked a nauseum about
- 51:35Speaker 1: l A.
- 51:35Speaker 7: Knight's inability to climb those ropes and how we should
- 51:38Speaker 7: stop doing it if he can't do it anymore.
- 51:40Speaker 1: Well, remember Kofe used to do that spot where he would.
- 51:43Speaker 7: Almost get eliminated and then find some fun way to
- 51:46Speaker 7: get himself back in the ring.
- 51:47Speaker 1: And guess what, he sucked it up a couple of times,
- 51:49Speaker 1: and now he doesn't do it anymore.
- 51:51Speaker 7: Uh, I think, uh, soul Rocca could be a pretty
- 51:54Speaker 7: fun heir apparent. Yeah, that mantle of the fun near
- 52:00Speaker 7: elimination spot.
- 52:02Speaker 3: Right.
- 52:04Speaker 7: So I just I had read a little note about that,
- 52:07Speaker 7: uh just you know, possible entrance or whatever.
- 52:09Speaker 3: I wrote her down because I.
- 52:11Speaker 7: Thought she might be fun candidate to kind of revive
- 52:14Speaker 7: that yearly tradition.
- 52:16Speaker 3: Ms trist Stratus could make could pop up.
- 52:18Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean Trican leader I think would always be Uh,
- 52:21Speaker 7: I'm thinking, yeah.
- 52:24Speaker 1: I said, please, no Ballance, I wrote down.
- 52:27Speaker 6: Oh my god, no, no way, man, give me games
- 52:32Speaker 6: for Victoria too. I think Tristratus, Charlotte and Nicky Bella
- 52:38Speaker 6: at the same time. It's a generation of fantasy right there. Skip,
- 52:45Speaker 6: I don't know, I'm thinking.
- 52:47Speaker 3: Uh, seems like a steep decline to me, But okay.
- 52:51Speaker 1: This man, alright, I mean Oscar could come back.
- 52:55Speaker 6: We don't all go to Bassom Robins Dray and get
- 52:57Speaker 6: the same fucking flavor ice cream. A right, all right, I'm.
- 53:01Speaker 3: Just saying there's Trish, then Nikki then Charlotte.
- 53:08Speaker 6: M yeah, but you know what though, Charlotte. Now I
- 53:12Speaker 6: recently saw that video of Charlotte and her promo. Jesus Christ,
- 53:17Speaker 6: what has she done to her face?
- 53:19Speaker 3: Mm hmm, she.
- 53:20Speaker 6: Has gone full Megan Fox. What has happened? Like, go
- 53:26Speaker 6: back NXT Charlotte. She is a different fucking person.
- 53:32Speaker 3: That's what happens, assuming that she has been under the knife.
- 53:38Speaker 3: That is what happens when you don't age as gracefully
- 53:41Speaker 3: as you would like, and you feel the need to
- 53:44Speaker 3: preserve your looks at all costs. When the jeans ain't
- 53:49Speaker 3: jean in the way you want them to, and it's
- 53:51Speaker 3: like shit, I got my daddy's jeans.
- 53:55Speaker 1: She still looks like flairing a wig, right.
- 54:00Speaker 3: Is She's trying to keep that as at bay as
- 54:02Speaker 3: long as possible.
- 54:05Speaker 6: Maybe this is uh, maybe the person who's eggered her
- 54:08Speaker 6: on for all this is Andrade, can you make your face.
- 54:15Speaker 1: Tighter?
- 54:19Speaker 3: H as many times as she's been divorced, I doubt
- 54:23Speaker 3: she's doing it for a dude.
- 54:26Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, God damn. Anyway, Uh for me, the fate
- 54:34Speaker 6: the We're gonna give me your last four, and then
- 54:37Speaker 6: your final four, your final two, and then who you
- 54:41Speaker 6: think is gonna win. So I'll go first, uh, because
- 54:45Speaker 6: you kind of have to think if you didn't have
- 54:47Speaker 6: it already. My final four, I have Charlotte Flair, Bianca
- 54:53Speaker 6: bell Air, Becky Lynch, and Live Morgan final two. I
- 55:01Speaker 6: see you being Becky and Charlotte the final woman standing's Charlotte.
- 55:10Speaker 6: I know that hurts a lot of people. Know a
- 55:12Speaker 6: lot of people aren't happy with that decision. Tough shit.
- 55:16Speaker 6: That's how I think it's gonna go. Ah. I just
- 55:22Speaker 6: they're just gonna fast tracker right to Tiffany Stratton. I
- 55:25Speaker 6: think I think that's where we're going. Tiffany Stratton versus
- 55:29Speaker 6: Charlotte Barbie versus Barbie, you know, out with the old,
- 55:33Speaker 6: in with the new Charlotte two point oh versus Charlotte
- 55:37Speaker 6: one point oh. She might take it right off of
- 55:44Speaker 6: her too, and then there you go another long feud
- 55:48Speaker 6: and Tiffany Stratton won't be the only woman that's ever
- 55:51Speaker 6: gotten her titled. Take her from her WrestleMania by Charlotte,
- 55:55Speaker 6: and it happens Final four, Final two, and you're winning.
- 56:08Speaker 3: My final four. I'm gonna say I agree. Charlotte and
- 56:12Speaker 3: Bianca will probably be in the final four. I think
- 56:15Speaker 3: they will be joined by Ah. I'm not one hundred
- 56:25Speaker 3: percent sold on Becky Lynch returning for the Rumble.
- 56:30Speaker 6: I know that was a hard pick for me because
- 56:31Speaker 6: I was like putting all maggs in the basket hoping
- 56:34Speaker 6: she returns. If not, that looks like a dumb ass.
- 56:39Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm thinking Charlotte Bianca. If I'm gonna throw a
- 56:45Speaker 3: wild card in the final four, I would throw Jay
- 56:49Speaker 3: Cargill in the final four. And but it feels like
- 56:56Speaker 3: a reach too. No, no, no, no, let me backtrack
- 57:02Speaker 3: that final four. Charlotte Bianca, Naya Jacks and I'll throw,
- 57:13Speaker 3: I'll throw. I'll throw Becky Lynch in as well. I
- 57:15Speaker 3: think just just because because I don't see I don't
- 57:19Speaker 3: see Live doing it again, because she's been in the
- 57:22Speaker 3: final two the last two years. I don't know that
- 57:25Speaker 3: that streak is going to continue. I think that I
- 57:28Speaker 3: think that will get broken this year, given the level
- 57:31Speaker 3: of star power that's in it now. Given that this
- 57:35Speaker 3: is taking place there in February. I would love to
- 57:38Speaker 3: sit here and say that the final two are gonna
- 57:41Speaker 3: be Bianka and somebody, and that Byanka is gonna win.
- 57:44Speaker 3: But Paul be on that bullshit sometimes, so I'll trust him.
- 57:48Speaker 3: So final two are probably going to be Charlotte and
- 57:55Speaker 3: Nya Jacks, and I think Charlotte eliminates Nia Jacks to
- 57:59Speaker 3: win during Black History One.
- 58:07Speaker 1: All right, Doyle, God bless hermeric.
- 58:14Speaker 7: With that said, my final four is I think we
- 58:22Speaker 7: all have the same too, at least Charlotte, Bianca, Live Morgan,
- 58:26Speaker 7: and Julia. So will it be somebody winning their first
- 58:30Speaker 7: Rumble or will it be somebody that be the first
- 58:33Speaker 7: two time winner.
- 58:34Speaker 1: It's really the question here. I think Julia is out.
- 58:37Speaker 7: It's way too soon for her, But I think she's
- 58:40Speaker 7: in a future Rumble winner, if not next year, the
- 58:43Speaker 7: year after that, or sometime in the near future. Live
- 58:48Speaker 7: somebody said has been running up twice in a row.
- 58:50Speaker 7: Now I think she's gonna be runner up again. I
- 58:53Speaker 7: think that this might be kind of a thing going forward.
- 58:57Speaker 7: And she was just in the title picture. We don't
- 58:59Speaker 7: need her back the title picture right away. She can
- 59:01Speaker 7: go do something else for a couple months. So I
- 59:07Speaker 7: think we're gonna see our first ever two time Rumble
- 59:10Speaker 7: winner Women's Rumble winner anyway, Yeah, and I think we're
- 59:14Speaker 7: getting Charlotte Tiffy, and I think we're getting Ria and Bianca.
- 59:16Speaker 1: And so for me, it's kind of a coin flip.
- 59:18Speaker 7: Between them, between the two Charlotte and Bianca, since I
- 59:23Speaker 7: feel like Charlotte doesn't really need yet another accolade. And
- 59:27Speaker 7: when Bianca won her first Rumble it was in the
- 59:29Speaker 7: Thunderdome back in twenty twenty one. I think maybe kind
- 59:34Speaker 7: of a make good for her would be to become
- 59:36Speaker 7: the first two time Rumble winner. I do have a
- 59:40Speaker 7: little trepidation picking Bianca only because.
- 59:43Speaker 1: Of the Jade Cargo situation.
- 59:46Speaker 7: You know, we've all thought Bianca and Jade was a
- 59:50Speaker 7: WrestleMania match, you know, and maybe it is, but a
- 59:52Speaker 7: WrestleMania forty two match. Like I said about Kevin and
- 59:56Speaker 7: Ko or Kevin and Kevin and Sammy earlier, I think
- 1:00:02Speaker 7: we all I don't.
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: I shouldn't say we all think. I think and have
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: thoughts since.
- 1:00:06Speaker 7: Day one that Naomi did it, uh and if she did,
- 1:00:09Speaker 7: you know, when Jade comes back, the Beef is gonna be.
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: With Naomi, not with Bianca.
- 1:00:13Speaker 7: That'll free Bianca up to go after the title, go
- 1:00:16Speaker 7: after Rhea. So that's the only thing that gives me
- 1:00:20Speaker 7: pause about picking Bianca, but I'm gonna do it anyway.
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: I would love for that to happen, not even gonna lie.
- 1:00:28Speaker 3: I I don't know. I think Bianca comes out of
- 1:00:31Speaker 3: the elimination chamber, right, Yes.
- 1:00:34Speaker 7: I think Charlotte comes out of the elimination because I
- 1:00:37Speaker 7: feel like Charlotte has just been handed so much shit
- 1:00:40Speaker 7: She's gonna go earn it in the elimination.
- 1:00:43Speaker 3: And actually, you know what, I'm gonna mind my final
- 1:00:45Speaker 3: four because I I totally forgot about n x T people.
- 1:00:48Speaker 3: I'm gonna take Becky Lynch out of my final four.
- 1:00:51Speaker 3: I think my final four will be Charlotte, Bianca, Naya Jacks,
- 1:00:55Speaker 3: and I'm gonna throw rock Samperees in there. I think
- 1:00:59Speaker 3: I think she could be in the Live Morgan. What
- 1:01:03Speaker 3: Live Morgan has been has been that that small person
- 1:01:06Speaker 3: fighter making it to the tail end. I could see
- 1:01:10Speaker 3: that happening with Roxanne Peress. I think she is poised
- 1:01:14Speaker 3: to make it to the to go up to the
- 1:01:15Speaker 3: main roster. This year, and I really hope they still
- 1:01:20Speaker 3: continue to play up her prodigy aspect of her character,
- 1:01:25Speaker 3: and I think a good way to do that to
- 1:01:28Speaker 3: start that is by having her make a very strong
- 1:01:32Speaker 3: showing in the Rumble this year. Then again, Jordan Grace
- 1:01:39Speaker 3: could make the Final four because I think she's poised
- 1:01:41Speaker 3: for a major push that would big for an interest
- 1:01:43Speaker 3: in Final four too, straight to the Charlotte and Nyah
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: Bianca and Jordan Grace. I know.
- 1:01:51Speaker 6: With the women though, it's like, I mean, wait, we're
- 1:01:54Speaker 6: not Eve into the nets. The mesic is gonna be
- 1:01:55Speaker 6: even more fucking harder, I think. But Grease is a
- 1:02:00Speaker 6: good possibility. Even they're a new Intercnal champion, uh liar Valkyrie,
- 1:02:07Speaker 6: they always throw somebody like that of that tier you know,
- 1:02:14Speaker 6: mid card, upper mid card.
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: Yeah, I bet Chelsea, man. I could see her going on.
- 1:02:21Speaker 7: A run, you know, being in there for a while anyway.
- 1:02:25Speaker 3: Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, I can see Chelsea easily being
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: like one of the single digit entrants and making it
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: to like the last five or six. Yeah.
- 1:02:37Speaker 7: I could see her in that that workhorse spot, you know,
- 1:02:40Speaker 7: or the you know, the I guess you call it
- 1:02:43Speaker 7: the flare spot or the person. Yeah, the person's been
- 1:02:46Speaker 7: there for almost an hour or open an hour.
- 1:02:49Speaker 3: We're good for her last year when they as from
- 1:02:52Speaker 3: a comedy aspect, as the person who's kept getting laid
- 1:02:54Speaker 3: out and dropped and then just spend most of the
- 1:02:57Speaker 3: mass just laying in a heap in a corner somewhere.
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: Yeah, that was great.
- 1:03:05Speaker 7: But yeah, I mean that that's actually something I don't
- 1:03:07Speaker 7: want out of either of these matches. I don't want
- 1:03:09Speaker 7: goofy bullshit like there's been there's been, you know, sure
- 1:03:14Speaker 7: times when rosters have been thin or whatever.
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: Fine, you know, like give me goofy ship. That's fun.
- 1:03:19Speaker 7: But like I feel like these are two like stone
- 1:03:21Speaker 7: cold serious royal rumbols we're about to get ah And
- 1:03:26Speaker 7: I think, like, you know, especially the men that, like
- 1:03:30Speaker 7: I said, you can make a case for almost half
- 1:03:31Speaker 7: of the people in this thing.
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: Mm hmmm, it's crazy.
- 1:03:38Speaker 6: Uh yeah, I mean, I mean this rumbles seems like
- 1:03:42Speaker 6: it's gona be really fucking fun. You know what I
- 1:03:45Speaker 6: just thought of that I kind of haven't thought about
- 1:03:47Speaker 6: in like a couple of months. Who hasn't been around,
- 1:03:50Speaker 6: has been on the injured roster, Carmela, Where the fuck
- 1:03:55Speaker 6: has Carmela.
- 1:03:56Speaker 3: Been drop foot.
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: Yeah, she's got some pregnancy complication.
- 1:04:01Speaker 3: She had a complication from her pregnancy where she's dealing with. Uh.
- 1:04:04Speaker 3: She's been dealing with h drop foot syndrome, the same
- 1:04:07Speaker 3: thing that Scott Steiner had when he came to WWE
- 1:04:10Speaker 3: that he didn't tell him about. It is why he
- 1:04:12Speaker 3: looked like shit in the ring. Really, she's been dealing
- 1:04:16Speaker 3: with that. So that's what's been keeping her out that.
- 1:04:19Speaker 6: The more you know, interesting, interesting, All right, let's move
- 1:04:27Speaker 6: on here. Oh my god, I pulled up like betting
- 1:04:35Speaker 6: odds for like the men's rumble. Right, well, first, let
- 1:04:42Speaker 6: me go off by saying, who's in the rumble for
- 1:04:44Speaker 6: the men's we only have fifteen out of thirty, so
- 1:04:47Speaker 6: literally half uh SmackDown. We got La Knight from Raw.
- 1:04:54Speaker 6: We got Seeing Punk and Jay Usso from SmackDown Again.
- 1:04:58Speaker 6: We got Roman Reigns from Raw. We got Seth Freakin Rollins,
- 1:05:03Speaker 6: Drew McIntyre, Ray Mysterio, and Sammy Zain from SmackDown. We
- 1:05:09Speaker 6: got Shinske Nakamura from Raw. We got Logan, Paul Penta,
- 1:05:16Speaker 6: Chad Gable, bron Breaker, and from SmackDown we got Carmelo Hayes,
- 1:05:24Speaker 6: so not a lot of SmackDown. Oh and uh from
- 1:05:28Speaker 6: no roster apparently John Cena I forgot.
- 1:05:35Speaker 7: I mean those fifteen names, eight of them I could
- 1:05:38Speaker 7: make a good case for.
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: It, and at least two other people.
- 1:05:42Speaker 6: I know, right crazy, Yeah it is. And uh. Before
- 1:05:47Speaker 6: we talk about uh, I want to talk about what
- 1:05:52Speaker 6: entrances we what people we could see. I have here
- 1:05:56Speaker 6: a list of people we could possibly see that a
- 1:06:01Speaker 6: lot of people would names have been thrown around on
- 1:06:03Speaker 6: the internet. Some people are speculating who we could see.
- 1:06:09Speaker 6: I'll go, I'll go light. A lot of people are
- 1:06:12Speaker 6: expecting to see Randy Orton come back. You know, Orton's
- 1:06:15Speaker 6: been off TV for a while and in this caliber
- 1:06:19Speaker 6: looking at the name, but we just the names we've mentioned. Absolutely,
- 1:06:24Speaker 6: I would love to see ord in this.
- 1:06:26Speaker 7: I would put him as I would put him as
- 1:06:28Speaker 7: you can make a case he should win the whole thing.
- 1:06:31Speaker 6: Yes, absolutely. Uh, here's a here's a hell of a stretch,
- 1:06:39Speaker 6: Dre And I think you and me talked about this before.
- 1:06:42Speaker 6: A lot of people are saying, you know, say you
- 1:06:45Speaker 6: got Kobe Kingston in the ring and save if your
- 1:06:49Speaker 6: woods in the ring running shop for a little bit,
- 1:06:54Speaker 6: then we'll get Big EA's music. Big E throws both
- 1:06:59Speaker 6: the asses out the pop of sixty three thousand people,
- 1:07:07Speaker 6: Biggie making his return to the ring for a short spot,
- 1:07:12Speaker 6: but he makes his return crazy right, crazy thing.
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: Crazy, It's not gonna happen, I know.
- 1:07:25Speaker 6: Right, this is this is Internet dreams, right, you.
- 1:07:28Speaker 3: Know one could end up being a New Day spot
- 1:07:32Speaker 3: that happens in the Rumble. Remember a couple of years
- 1:07:36Speaker 3: ago or was it might have been a couple of
- 1:07:38Speaker 3: years or last year's Rumble when Logan Paul was in
- 1:07:42Speaker 3: the ring surrounded by a bunch of other wrestlers and
- 1:07:45Speaker 3: they all just jumped him and stomped his ass out. Yep,
- 1:07:49Speaker 3: I can see that happening to the New Day.
- 1:07:51Speaker 6: I see that too because of that. I can see them.
- 1:07:54Speaker 3: Being in a ring and a bunch of other people
- 1:07:56Speaker 3: and everybody just jumped the motherfuckers, beat the shot of
- 1:07:59Speaker 3: them and toss them found.
- 1:08:00Speaker 6: At the same time, we literally get confirmation Monday that
- 1:08:03Speaker 6: even the heels don't like them because Kaiser and Pete
- 1:08:08Speaker 6: Dunn you know, we're there and they totally like snubbed them,
- 1:08:13Speaker 6: and add the e Xaviers like these guys are just
- 1:08:15Speaker 6: scums of the earth, you know, and they snub them,
- 1:08:19Speaker 6: so like, yeah, I absolutely see that. We've seen that
- 1:08:23Speaker 6: before with Muhammed Hassan, We've seen that with Gender Mahal,
- 1:08:27Speaker 6: We've seen that with Logan Paul, We've seen that with
- 1:08:32Speaker 6: a lot of guys, just the biggest one.
- 1:08:34Speaker 3: I can see him doing it back to back. Maybe
- 1:08:36Speaker 3: not both of them at the same time, but I
- 1:08:38Speaker 3: could see them both getting in back to back, like
- 1:08:41Speaker 3: you know, yeah, Xavier's number seventeen or like Kofe's number seventeen.
- 1:08:45Speaker 3: He goes out there, everybody stumps him out, throws him out.
- 1:08:48Speaker 3: Then number eighteen is Xavier. He comes in, they do
- 1:08:51Speaker 3: the exact same thing to him, throw him right back out.
- 1:08:53Speaker 3: I can see him doing that. Yep.
- 1:08:56Speaker 6: Uh. Rumors of TEENA wrestlers. We have the new TEENA Champion,
- 1:09:01Speaker 6: Joe Hendry. We talked about that before about him showing up.
- 1:09:06Speaker 6: Don't know about how Yeah, we we would feel shocked
- 1:09:10Speaker 6: if the TEENA heavyweight champion from another show shows up.
- 1:09:16Speaker 6: A lot of people were saying about Nicknameath formerly known
- 1:09:19Speaker 6: as Dolph Ziggler, and we talked about too, like why
- 1:09:23Speaker 6: would you want to come back? You know, the place
- 1:09:26Speaker 6: he tried to leave so much from Uh trying to
- 1:09:29Speaker 6: you know, he's trying to be Nicknameth, not Dolph Ziggler,
- 1:09:31Speaker 6: and that's who he would be associated with. If he
- 1:09:34Speaker 6: came back to the Rumble, even for a small spot,
- 1:09:36Speaker 6: it's probably not worth it. However, the sight and sound
- 1:09:41Speaker 6: of Jeff Hardy would go down very well, especially if
- 1:09:47Speaker 6: if they weaven a you know, certain showdown with Sam
- 1:09:52Speaker 6: Punk maybe you know, I mean the Hardy Boys as possible,
- 1:09:58Speaker 6: hardy boys in general, not just Jeff.
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: Uh.
- 1:10:04Speaker 6: People were saying in NXT we could probably see the
- 1:10:07Speaker 6: NXC champion Trick Williams show up, Ethan page Oba, FEMA,
- 1:10:13Speaker 6: FEMA totally was off there. Look at me learning new things,
- 1:10:21Speaker 6: blasts from the past. People were saying they recently saw
- 1:10:25Speaker 6: but but Ray Dudley appear on n x T NXT
- 1:10:28Speaker 6: TV makes him a possible candidate. JBL has been seen
- 1:10:34Speaker 6: throwing clothes lines around everywhere recently Impact Wrestling or TNA
- 1:10:39Speaker 6: Wrestling and whatnot. With the thirst of the Attitude era
- 1:10:43Speaker 6: as strong as ever, XPOC is another name that could
- 1:10:46Speaker 6: be an option, or recently.
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: This year.
- 1:10:52Speaker 6: I know, I absolutely agree.
- 1:10:55Speaker 7: I don't want fucking McAfee coming in doing some stupid
- 1:10:58Speaker 7: waste in the spot. I don't want these fucking influencers
- 1:11:01Speaker 7: coming in and wasting a spot like this year.
- 1:11:06Speaker 3: I agree, the card is two stacked into the roster
- 1:11:10Speaker 3: is too strong right now to waste the hurt on you.
- 1:11:13Speaker 7: I mean that's kind of next year, half of these
- 1:11:15Speaker 7: guys will be hurt, you know what I mean, and
- 1:11:16Speaker 7: you're gonna need to scramble.
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: Oh ship, we got we got two open spots we're
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: gonna fill.
- 1:11:21Speaker 3: He got a strong, healthy roster right now, full of
- 1:11:25Speaker 3: contenders and legit people that can go in there and
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: put on the show.
- 1:11:29Speaker 7: Yeah, we don't need I waste a spot on goofy ass,
- 1:11:32Speaker 7: Pat McAfee.
- 1:11:33Speaker 3: You know, like what you have, you don't need to
- 1:11:37Speaker 3: dust off the AARP. Guys.
- 1:11:39Speaker 6: You have your rumor of Corey Grays being cleared to wrestle,
- 1:11:44Speaker 6: and then the talk of weed Berry wanting to retire.
- 1:11:48Speaker 12: Uh or the home town hero, Pat McAfee hometown, and
- 1:11:56Speaker 12: then there's rumors of them pulling the trigger on this
- 1:11:59Speaker 12: Adam Pierce to nick All this ring return.
- 1:12:02Speaker 6: That is that's a lot of wasted spots.
- 1:12:10Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't believe I believe this is the same
- 1:12:13Speaker 3: thing that we get every rumble where everybody just wants
- 1:12:15Speaker 3: to throw ship at the wall, see if any of
- 1:12:18Speaker 3: his sticks the night of I don't believe in I don't.
- 1:12:22Speaker 3: I literally don't believe in any of those. The only
- 1:12:25Speaker 3: one out of all those names that I can see
- 1:12:27Speaker 3: possibly showing up would be Joe Hendry. Yes, that's it.
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: I don't think we're gonna see the Hearty's nice nostalgia,
- 1:12:35Speaker 3: but it would be a waste in this rumble. May
- 1:12:39Speaker 3: I've seen people throw Booker t out of it out
- 1:12:40Speaker 3: there that he could possibly show up. I don't see
- 1:12:42Speaker 3: it happening. I don't see it happening, nor do I
- 1:12:47Speaker 3: want it to happen. I would much rather see those
- 1:12:50Speaker 3: spots go to guys on the main roster, or let
- 1:12:54Speaker 3: the guys in NXT come up and get a shot. Right.
- 1:12:58Speaker 7: Yeah, And even that, I mean, I don't. I don't
- 1:13:00Speaker 7: think there's gonna be that many NXT guys.
- 1:13:03Speaker 3: I don't either. Women.
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: I think, but I think there'll only be two or
- 1:13:07Speaker 1: three at the most.
- 1:13:09Speaker 3: I don't either. I still maintained the position I said
- 1:13:12Speaker 3: I think last year that they should make NXT people
- 1:13:16Speaker 3: compete for Rumble spots like champions, champions, like belt holders
- 1:13:22Speaker 3: should get automatic bids. Yeah. I think there should be
- 1:13:26Speaker 3: like three NXT spots in the rumble. Two of them
- 1:13:31Speaker 3: go to belt holders, you're NXT champion and your North
- 1:13:34Speaker 3: American champion, and then the third one you should be
- 1:13:37Speaker 3: holding a tournament for.
- 1:13:38Speaker 7: That's a great idea and how comes sometimes they didn't
- 1:13:41Speaker 7: do it this year, But sometimes people have to qualify
- 1:13:44Speaker 7: for the Royal Rumble and some other people can.
- 1:13:46Speaker 1: Just declare that they're in it.
- 1:13:48Speaker 6: Sense to me, yeah, I know, I could picture like
- 1:13:52Speaker 6: the meeting backstage. So it's like I want to go on,
- 1:13:55Speaker 6: you know, do we have to compete for the rumblest year?
- 1:13:57Speaker 6: And be like no, why do that?
- 1:14:01Speaker 11: You're just we need people in the qualifications.
- 1:14:06Speaker 3: You have to be a certain you have to be
- 1:14:07Speaker 3: a former champion or former world champion, or you have
- 1:14:10Speaker 3: to move a certain amount of merch No, and.
- 1:14:12Speaker 6: Like how about it? Like the women, It's like, no, no,
- 1:14:15Speaker 6: you have to be you, you must be in it.
- 1:14:17Speaker 6: We don't have enough women. Like there was rumor going around,
- 1:14:23Speaker 6: people were setting rumors on the internet about a forty
- 1:14:26Speaker 6: man Rumble this year, and I was like.
- 1:14:28Speaker 3: No, I saw that rumor about thought it was like
- 1:14:33Speaker 3: something that they could possibly look at doing in the future.
- 1:14:36Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: Yeah, but they did. They tried that once. Was terrible.
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: Yeah. Too long.
- 1:14:42Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a lot to remember a lot of spots.
- 1:14:46Speaker 3: It's just way too long. You're dragging it out too much.
- 1:14:49Speaker 7: To have five guys that you were like, oh, damn it,
- 1:14:52Speaker 7: why couldn't we get them in this match? Then they
- 1:14:54Speaker 7: have on the other end, have five people like, oh,
- 1:14:57Speaker 7: I guess we'll put this guy in because we don't
- 1:14:59Speaker 7: have anybody else.
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
- 1:15:03Speaker 3: Just imagine think about how long the rumble is now
- 1:15:06Speaker 3: and they finally hit number thirty. Imagine they hit thirty
- 1:15:10Speaker 3: and now you're thinking to yourself, we still got ten
- 1:15:13Speaker 3: moon motherfuckers.
- 1:15:14Speaker 13: Yeah right, all right, I'm gonna give you my final
- 1:15:20Speaker 13: for my two, my number one.
- 1:15:26Speaker 6: This is hard, man, this is really difficult. I'm gonna
- 1:15:31Speaker 6: put John Cena and Sam Punk Roman reigns. Fuck. Number
- 1:15:41Speaker 6: four was hard. Number four, so goddamn difficult.
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: Say the name in there.
- 1:15:57Speaker 6: No, No, I'm gonna put Orton in there. I as
- 1:16:03Speaker 6: much as I want to put as much as I
- 1:16:06Speaker 6: want to put Drew, as much as I want to
- 1:16:08Speaker 6: put uh seth. I think that I think they're going
- 1:16:13Speaker 6: to just kill each other, you know, I I I
- 1:16:18Speaker 6: just think this is a final four.
- 1:16:22Speaker 11: Of big dogs, like the.
- 1:16:30Speaker 6: They just these guys, these four specifically just come from
- 1:16:34Speaker 6: a different age, you know. I Roman is definitely the
- 1:16:41Speaker 6: younger of the group, but I just I just think
- 1:16:44Speaker 6: with his status, I just think these are the final
- 1:16:48Speaker 6: four or in especially coming from a return and like
- 1:16:51Speaker 6: this man is so close. He's on the heels of
- 1:16:54Speaker 6: Johnsena's career, and Johnastena is just winding down, you know,
- 1:17:01Speaker 6: the final two. God damn, wouldn't it be great to
- 1:17:06Speaker 6: see Sena Orton to be the final two? You know,
- 1:17:10Speaker 6: holy crap. But I see it being Sena and Punk
- 1:17:16Speaker 6: being the final.
- 1:17:16Speaker 3: Two, And said Dudan Punk.
- 1:17:22Speaker 11: No, No, Sina and Punk, Sena and Punk. Sorry, yeah,
- 1:17:27Speaker 11: John Cena and Punk.
- 1:17:29Speaker 6: And h No either way, I think these guys can
- 1:17:36Speaker 6: still catch up at the chamber if they don't get
- 1:17:40Speaker 6: the w for this one. But I feel like with
- 1:17:46Speaker 6: so many losses. We just discussed about how many losses
- 1:17:50Speaker 6: he's had, I feel like defeating twenty nine other.
- 1:17:55Speaker 11: Men is a good way to catch up and give
- 1:17:59Speaker 11: him the momentum.
- 1:18:00Speaker 6: He needs to wrap up his career. And I know
- 1:18:04Speaker 6: Johnson has already won it before, but guess what, so
- 1:18:07Speaker 6: I still called Steve Austin, So why not let Sena
- 1:18:11Speaker 6: have that modern day. I see Johnsena winning this rumble.
- 1:18:19Speaker 6: I fucking believe it. And I know, like he's on
- 1:18:23Speaker 6: the poster for the elimination Chamber and people are trying
- 1:18:27Speaker 6: to say that's a dead giveaway, but I just don't
- 1:18:30Speaker 6: think so. And I think if Sena comes out, he's
- 1:18:33Speaker 6: gonna come out closer to the end. I think, because
- 1:18:36Speaker 6: he's an actor, I'm not gonna let this guy get hurt.
- 1:18:38Speaker 6: I don't see him coming out early.
- 1:18:40Speaker 3: Uh.
- 1:18:42Speaker 6: But yeah, that's where I'm going with. I'm going with
- 1:18:45Speaker 6: John Cena, Dre. I want to hear you. I want
- 1:18:47Speaker 6: to hear your pick.
- 1:18:51Speaker 3: I know I disclosed my predictions for the final four
- 1:18:54Speaker 3: in Discord earlier this month, and they pretty much have
- 1:18:58Speaker 3: not changed. So I'm still going with my final four
- 1:19:03Speaker 3: as being John Cena, see him, Punk, Roman Reigns, and
- 1:19:10Speaker 3: jay USO. I really think jay Us needs a strong
- 1:19:13Speaker 3: showing to be taken seriously this year, and even though
- 1:19:18Speaker 3: he did just take an l to Gunt Saturday Night's
- 1:19:22Speaker 3: main event. I do think he followed up with a
- 1:19:28Speaker 3: albeit brief but strong promo on Monday that helped him
- 1:19:34Speaker 3: kind of regain or re establish his footing in his
- 1:19:39Speaker 3: momentum as one of the top stars. Bo even we're
- 1:19:42Speaker 3: saying something to subtle as you know, I can beat him,
- 1:19:46Speaker 3: he said it with confidence and with conviction in a
- 1:19:48Speaker 3: way that made you believe that, you know, there's a
- 1:19:51Speaker 3: storyline there to be told. Potentially, if WWE wanted to
- 1:19:56Speaker 3: go that route. I'm not saying that they will, but
- 1:20:00Speaker 3: it's there if they want to, and I think they
- 1:20:03Speaker 3: can feed into that more and keep Jay, you know,
- 1:20:09Speaker 3: legit by having him be one of the final four
- 1:20:12Speaker 3: in the Rumble. So that's why I think he'll be
- 1:20:14Speaker 3: in there. Sena, Punk and Roman obviously speak for themselves.
- 1:20:20Speaker 3: My final two. I think it comes down to I'm
- 1:20:25Speaker 3: in agreement with you. I think it comes down to
- 1:20:27Speaker 3: Sena and Punk and the winner. I think I initially
- 1:20:37Speaker 3: said I thought Sina was gonna win the Rumble. I
- 1:20:46Speaker 3: think I'm gonna change on that. I think Punk is
- 1:20:49Speaker 3: gonna do it. I think Punk is gonna win the
- 1:20:52Speaker 3: Rumble this year. I think he eliminates John Cena. I think, uh,
- 1:21:03Speaker 3: we'll probably I think they I don't think we're done
- 1:21:07Speaker 3: with this Punk and Cody Angle, I don't. I even
- 1:21:12Speaker 3: though that wasn't the best promo on RAW this past Monday,
- 1:21:16Speaker 3: I don't think it was.
- 1:21:18Speaker 6: It was definitely.
- 1:21:22Speaker 3: I don't know. I just thought it was just kind
- 1:21:25Speaker 3: of a mediocre and awkward promo all across the Yeah,
- 1:21:29Speaker 3: But I don't think it was just a teaser. I
- 1:21:34Speaker 3: don't think they did that just to tease us at
- 1:21:36Speaker 3: the possibility. I think there's a very real chance of that. Obviously,
- 1:21:42Speaker 3: there's still the whole set the whole Seth punk aspect,
- 1:21:47Speaker 3: but given how lackluster that match is gone, I don't know,
- 1:21:51Speaker 3: the heat kind of seems to have cooled off a
- 1:21:53Speaker 3: bit on that. That could be one of the things
- 1:21:56Speaker 3: where it seems like, Okay, that didn't hit like we
- 1:22:00Speaker 3: thought it would, So maybe they, like, maybe they're kind
- 1:22:04Speaker 3: of cold on going on continuing that, because let's be honest,
- 1:22:11Speaker 3: are any of us right now currently looking forward to
- 1:22:14Speaker 3: a punk Rollins too?
- 1:22:17Speaker 6: No, I'm just done with it. What I wanted and
- 1:22:23Speaker 6: I got what I wanted with Seth and Drew.
- 1:22:26Speaker 3: I we'll see, well that's the well, that's the thing.
- 1:22:30Speaker 3: I don't think we got what we wanted out of
- 1:22:32Speaker 3: Punk and Rollins. I think it's I think it's more
- 1:22:36Speaker 3: closer to Jimmy versus j and that it had all
- 1:22:41Speaker 3: the hype, it had all the anticipation, but the final
- 1:22:44Speaker 3: product didn't actually really deliver like that. And I'm not
- 1:22:49Speaker 3: saying that match was as bad as Jimmy versus Jay's
- 1:22:51Speaker 3: not by any means. It was a good match, but
- 1:22:57Speaker 3: it wasn't great.
- 1:22:58Speaker 1: I feel like that's a.
- 1:22:59Speaker 7: Bad or anything that they can reheat whenever they want to.
- 1:23:03Speaker 6: How can we somehow possibly? But how can we?
- 1:23:07Speaker 3: I don't know. If you see those two in the
- 1:23:09Speaker 3: ring staring each other down, cutting the promoe on each
- 1:23:11Speaker 3: other again, is it really gonna hype you up again? Like, oh,
- 1:23:15Speaker 3: we're about to get back on this again, Like ah,
- 1:23:18Speaker 3: I don't. I don't know that it's there.
- 1:23:20Speaker 6: Let me indulge you, Dre. How can we get to
- 1:23:24Speaker 6: a Drew versus Seth versus Punk with a title involved,
- 1:23:29Speaker 6: a triple threat with these guys with the title involved,
- 1:23:31Speaker 6: How do we get to that?
- 1:23:34Speaker 3: One of them has to become champion first?
- 1:23:36Speaker 6: You know, that's what I mean, we got to get
- 1:23:38Speaker 6: one of these guys fast tracked, and I'm hoping it's
- 1:23:40Speaker 6: Punk because I want to get to a triple threat
- 1:23:42Speaker 6: with these three. These guys hate each other through that
- 1:23:45Speaker 6: title in there makes them even more hungrier.
- 1:23:49Speaker 3: Yeah, but again, one of them has to become champion first,
- 1:23:52Speaker 3: and I don't see any of either of them, any
- 1:23:56Speaker 3: of them three d Thrown and Cody, and we don't
- 1:24:02Speaker 3: know who the hell's challenging Guns at WrestleMania either. He
- 1:24:06Speaker 3: really doesn't have much of a storyline going with anybody
- 1:24:08Speaker 3: other than right now, probably Jay right now. Obviously that's
- 1:24:13Speaker 3: not to say that we're gonna get Gun through versus
- 1:24:15Speaker 3: Jay and Mania, although again the possibility is there, the
- 1:24:19Speaker 3: story is there, But yeah, Gumpter's opponent is kind of
- 1:24:23Speaker 3: really unknown and really wide open at this point. So yeah,
- 1:24:30Speaker 3: I means, as cool as the prospect of that match
- 1:24:34Speaker 3: would be, you gotta there, you gotta find a way
- 1:24:37Speaker 3: there first. Other than they just don't like each other.
- 1:24:42Speaker 3: Some's got to pull all three of them back in
- 1:24:44Speaker 3: each other's orbit. Again, I just don't see it at
- 1:24:50Speaker 3: this at right now, at this point, Seth seems to
- 1:24:55Speaker 3: be not Seth, but Punk seems to be solidly focused
- 1:24:58Speaker 3: on becoming a champion right now, right Drew is just
- 1:25:04Speaker 3: still going after anybody who sided with Roman, and Seth
- 1:25:09Speaker 3: is just being Seth right now.
- 1:25:16Speaker 6: Doe, that's your input, man.
- 1:25:19Speaker 7: Well, like I said, I think you can make a
- 1:25:21Speaker 7: case for seeing a Punk Seth, Drew, Roman, Jay, Sammy Logan,
- 1:25:26Speaker 7: Paul Randy. So there's a lot of different directions you
- 1:25:31Speaker 7: can go with this, But I think my final four
- 1:25:36Speaker 7: is Sina, Pepsi, Phil, Seth, Rawlins, and Jacob Fattou. I
- 1:25:44Speaker 7: think Roman gets if he doesn't get eliminated by Jacob Fattou,
- 1:25:47Speaker 7: he gets eliminated by some type of bloodline Shenanigan. You know,
- 1:25:52Speaker 7: they're all in the ring at the same time and
- 1:25:54Speaker 7: they gang up on him or something like that, and
- 1:25:57Speaker 7: it's like a huge deal when he does get eliminated.
- 1:26:01Speaker 7: But yeah, I mean I kind of similar to you guys.
- 1:26:04Speaker 7: I say this as a coin flip between Punk and Sina,
- 1:26:08Speaker 7: but you know, they've kind of been advertising Sina as
- 1:26:10Speaker 7: like this is his last elimination chamber, So like I
- 1:26:14Speaker 7: kind of feel like he's probably gonna be in that match,
- 1:26:19Speaker 7: So I'm gonna go with pepsi Phil, I would see
- 1:26:22Speaker 7: probably Rawlins as the runner up in that scenario.
- 1:26:25Speaker 1: I'll go even further to.
- 1:26:26Speaker 7: Predict that the favor has something to do with entrance
- 1:26:29Speaker 7: numbers into the Royal Rumble, Like I'm kind of hoping
- 1:26:33Speaker 7: they bring back the big tumblr. Remember used to roll
- 1:26:37Speaker 7: the thing around with all the little ping pong balls
- 1:26:39Speaker 7: in it, and they go up and pick out their number, right,
- 1:26:43Speaker 7: So I'm hoping Hayman is gonna go pick two, one
- 1:26:46Speaker 7: for Roman and one for Phil and say maybe he
- 1:26:49Speaker 7: gets one and thirty or you know, three and twenty seven,
- 1:26:54Speaker 7: so I don't know whatever. Somehow Phil finnagels himself to
- 1:26:58Speaker 7: the later number, you know, Roman gets stuck with the
- 1:27:01Speaker 7: earlier one, and I think.
- 1:27:04Speaker 1: You, I think you have to strike while.
- 1:27:06Speaker 7: The iron is hot with Phil, uh, you know, because
- 1:27:10Speaker 7: you know, you never know when he's gonna get hurt
- 1:27:12Speaker 7: or act up or whatever. Uh So, whether it's Cody
- 1:27:17Speaker 7: or gun Through that he's gonna wrestle in WrestleMania, I'm
- 1:27:19Speaker 7: not sure I could certainly see him wrestling gun Through.
- 1:27:22Speaker 6: Uh.
- 1:27:25Speaker 7: But I think you gotta he's he's popular right now,
- 1:27:28Speaker 7: you gotta you gotta go for it, right now, you know,
- 1:27:32Speaker 7: the numbers don't lie, and when I don't know how
- 1:27:35Speaker 7: they're doing the ratings now, but before in the back
- 1:27:37Speaker 7: in back in the USA network days, uh you know,
- 1:27:41Speaker 7: if you look at those quarterly breakdowns or whatever, Punks
- 1:27:44Speaker 7: was always always, always the highest rated segment on any
- 1:27:47Speaker 7: given raw, no matter where he was, if he was
- 1:27:50Speaker 7: opening the show, if he was closing the show, if
- 1:27:51Speaker 7: he was in the middle of the show, it did
- 1:27:53Speaker 7: not matter. So I think they gotta strike while the
- 1:27:56Speaker 7: irons hot with this guy and and put him in.
- 1:27:59Speaker 7: Then now was the time to put him in the
- 1:28:01Speaker 7: main event of WrestleMania. However, having said all that, right,
- 1:28:08Speaker 7: if one minute and fifty seconds after enterant number thirty
- 1:28:12Speaker 7: enters the ring and the countdown clock starts again and
- 1:28:16Speaker 7: number thirty one comes out and here comes.
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: The Rock, I think all bets are off.
- 1:28:21Speaker 7: You know, I'm just assuming he's been written off of WrestleMania,
- 1:28:25Speaker 7: but as he you know, I think that the chances
- 1:28:30Speaker 7: of the Rock entering and winning the Royal Rumble are
- 1:28:33Speaker 7: is a non zero number. I could totally see something.
- 1:28:37Speaker 1: Like that happening.
- 1:28:39Speaker 7: That will be I don't think that, but I think
- 1:28:43Speaker 7: we're planning on a rock list WrestleMania, but maybe we're
- 1:28:48Speaker 7: not so something.
- 1:28:51Speaker 3: That would be fucking wild.
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: I don't think totally outside of the rumble possibility.
- 1:28:57Speaker 3: Not not that that's part about rock winning, but a
- 1:29:01Speaker 3: thirty one entrant, Like just imagine all thirty in there,
- 1:29:06Speaker 3: we're thinking we're done, they're talking about it, and then
- 1:29:08Speaker 3: all of a sudden, the countdown just pops back up again,
- 1:29:12Speaker 3: and everybody's like, wait, what the fuck? Why is it
- 1:29:14Speaker 3: counting down again? And there we you see it an
- 1:29:16Speaker 3: now just like why are we getting count down again?
- 1:29:18Speaker 3: What the hell? All of a sudden, the fans get
- 1:29:19Speaker 3: into when they count down to zero, that buzzer goes off,
- 1:29:23Speaker 3: then there's there's a pause.
- 1:29:27Speaker 6: Oh man, due, Yes, it could happen.
- 1:29:31Speaker 3: That would be Pop of the Knights, Pop of the Nights.
- 1:29:41Speaker 7: So yeah, I mean I think that there's a chance
- 1:29:44Speaker 7: something along those lines ends up happing it.
- 1:29:47Speaker 1: You can't, can't take it off the table.
- 1:29:52Speaker 3: But remember though he's a babyface now that would seem
- 1:29:54Speaker 3: like a final boss move. Yeah.
- 1:30:00Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that first uh Raw was an elseworld story.
- 1:30:05Speaker 6: Now he can do it. He can be a heel again.
- 1:30:07Speaker 6: One is out, all right, man, that's all I got.
- 1:30:15Speaker 6: I mean, do you guys, trad, do you want to
- 1:30:17Speaker 6: plug anything?
