• 0:51
  Speaker 3: I believe?
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, episode forty seven. And that other voice is
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: none other than Josh Cole. Bye bye, I'm here here here, Yes,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: he has arrived together. Jason is nowhere to be found.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: He is at an undisclosed location and we don't know
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: exactly where that's at.
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: He might have something to do with Jesse Ventura.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Well, the funny thing is like, this is the one
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: week he's out. Yeah, the one week he's out is
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: when Jesse Ventura returns and quotes Hell froze over again.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: So yes, Jesse Ventura did return to Monday Night Raw Yes,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: in Saint Paul, Minnesota, where he was former governor of
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Minnesota this past Monday night raw he was there was
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: a picture of him and see him Punk shaking hands and.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: All of that.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: He was tweeting. Well, I guess while he was there
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: afterwards or whatever. Yeah, he said quote Ventura said, quote
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: hell froze over again with his return. And also, like
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: I said, with the picture between him and Punk shaking hands,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: he had put a caption why did that come back
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: for moments like these?
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there is I don't know if it was like
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: an interview or him twet reading something later, but basically
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: he said he saw seem Punk go back, so things
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: must have changed.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, and I think according to some reports that
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: are going out right now, is that Punk's reworking his
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: contract to where he's wanting to pretty much stay there permanently. Yes.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: And the reason why Punk even considered returning was because
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: there's no Vince McMahon thereyore, and which also leads to
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Jesse Ventura coming back because Ventura and McMahon were not
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: the fondest of each other, which also I will say
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: this is it is a testament to Triple H because
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Ventura is not the only big time like wrestler from
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: back in the day that Vince's has has had qualms with.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: He's brought back. He was able to bring back Bruno
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: sa Martine so he can be inducted to the Hall
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: of Fame. He brought back the Warrior so that he
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: could be inducted to the Hall of Fame. So, you know,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Triple H is sort of that bridge that is how
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: do I put this, He's the bridge for the scars
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: of the ww's past, sort of like he's sort of
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: healing the past ww's passed.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: A little bit part of me thinks if Martha Hart
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: had not done her agreement with AW, he could almost
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: mend that bridge.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: But possibly, but I think that one maybe, But then again,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Martha is maybe her her qualm is with Vince more
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: but I don't know that one. That one would definitely
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: be the hell froze over. But because not all it's
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: I don't maybe it's I don't think it's just Vince
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: with that There's still people that work at WW that
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: were there you know during you know, unfortunately at the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: time during Owen Hart's death, So I don't know. That
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: would be rather impressive if he was able to do that.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: But I don't know, Uh, we'll see, but I will say,
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I mean the way a w has treated Owen Hart's
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: legacy and worked with Martha Hart, with owen Hart Cup
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: and everything, I think that they're the one a fantastic
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: job over there with it. Yeah, I mean, it's it's
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: not WWE, but it is. You know, it is a
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: way to honor Owen Hart's legacy that rightfully so should
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: be honored. Yeah. So, But just to since AEW just
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: got brought up and we're already talking about one McMahon,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: it was leaked out this past week and I'll give
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: my I'll give my thoughts on that here here. Shortly
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: this was this was leaked out through russell Talk dot com.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: It was one of their exclusives that they put out
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: quote following Shane McMahon's meeting with aw's Tony Kahn. It
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: has now been reported he had previously sought a WWE return. Yes, so,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: a picture leaked out of Shane McMahon and Tony Kahn
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: have an a meeting of sorts, yeah, with one another.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: According to Dave Meltzer, McMahon has reached out to WWE
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: in the past going on to say quote, I know
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: that Shane McMahon has looked to get back in WWE.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: I know that the people in charge of WW have
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: no interest in him. Could that change with the idea
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: that he'd be willing to go to AW? Maybe maybe not?
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Would he really be willing to go to AW? I
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: don't know where his mind is. As for ww's reaction
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: to the photo of Tony Kahan and Shane McMahon being shared,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: it was reported that a long time employee of the
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: company said, quote, Shane's as smart as they come. Taking
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: a preliminary meeting doesn't surprise anyone here end quote.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: Sarah, I am on Satura night collision. I have bought AW.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: That would be that would be a little crazy. I mean,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: with the way wrestling has went in twenty twenty four,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: I would not be shocked in the least. But I
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: will say this, I think this is just my opinions,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: and I sent this in a text earlier this week
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: when it happened. I think it was deliberately leaked. Yeah,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: because and this is just my thought process behind it.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: They were able to keep Brian Danielson quiet, They were
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: able to keep Adam Cole quiet edge was sort of
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Adam Copeland. He was sort of teased like it was
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: some people had speculation that he made but nobody knew
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: for sure. Nothing was leaked out about it. And now
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden, this photo just gets leaked out
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: to the public. Why. I don't know. I don't know
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: if it's for you know who it's who it's going
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: out to help. Yeah, but I think that there was
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: some deliberate leaking in this.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: The funny thing is they don't know who leaked it.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: But I mean Tony and Shane obviously they were looking
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: at the camera. Yeah, they could come clean with it.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: I mean they haven't.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, and and what was it? Was it
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Mercedes Money that like, yeah, yeah, yeah, she said that
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: she did it, but I don't It most likely was
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: not her, but I'd say in a way it could
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: have been, because wasn't there the report that her and
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Shane were seen talking at like an airport or something.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: So I mean, there maybe is some type of correlation there.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: But she might have got them hooked up.
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: She may have. I mean that that is a strong possibility.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: I've really been thinking a little bit more about this
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: whole Shaemcman possibly go aw thing. And this is this
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: is what what I will say about the whole deal.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: One of two things is either going to happen. It's
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: either going to be really good or really bad. Because
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: the reason why I'm saying really good is because Shane
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: McMahon does have the foresight for how the wrestling business
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: is going to go. Look at raw Underground, you know,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: look at you know. He he pretty much had the
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: pitch of E C W being an being an internet
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: show before you know, the like like NXT and them
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: and what yes, but yeah, the WW network and all
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: of that. He tried to convince his dad to buy
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: the UFC before the UFC exploded. So Shane is a
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: very smart businessman. He is a very intelligent man. But
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: here's the caveat look at how it ended with WWE. Allegedly,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: his his ego got got in the way. There was
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: the whole you know, Royal Rumble deal where he wanted
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: to look as as as strong as possible. But then
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: again that was when Vince was still there, so there
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: was some friction between those two. Shane is allegedly not
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: very fond of Triple H and Stephanie I think the
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: feelings are somewhat mutual. I think it's it's more or
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: less in a business sense that there is some friction
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: between the two. So if Shane were to join ae W,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: like I said, I think it's going to be either
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: really good because they need somebody like that there, or
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: it's going to be really bad and it's just it's
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: gonna keep tanking.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: I would say, I mean, it would be cool to
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: see him in an aw ring wrestling just for the
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: heck of it, right, but I would probably say just
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: keep him out of an actual wrestling ring. Maybe make
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: him like an on screen general manager or something.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: That's what I was getting ready to say. I would
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: not put him in the ring only, and if you do,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: you do it only on special occasions like here and there.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: But I wouldn't make him a full time in ring competitor.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: I would definitely put him behind the scenes on the
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: business side, and even get to the point to where
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: he would be helping Tony with all of the booking
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: that he does between Dynamite Collision Rampage and Ring of Honor.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: And speaking of Ringing of Honor, Tony Kahn said it
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: would be probably benefit Ring of Honor if he rebranded
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: as AE w R.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: O H pretty much exactly just like NXT is with WWE.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: You know, came.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: From Tony's mouth too.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, like we'll do it. I mean that's kind
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: of how Ring of Honor has looked at now it
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: is looked at as aw's NXTEH pretty much. I think
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: it would benefit it a lot more, but I don't know.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: We will figure that out as more of these discussions
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: go on about their TV deal, And speaking of their
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: TV deal, per Fightful Select Fightful Selects Sean Ross Sap
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: has learned via WBD sources that the exclusive negotiating window
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: with all Elite Wrestling and WBBBD Warner Brothers Discovery ended
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: this past week. They have not learned if a new
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: deal has been reached between the two signs, but the
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: conversations were ongoing over the past week. In addition to
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: talks continuing over the last week or so, Fightful Select
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: broke news quite a while back that Tony Kahan and
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: David Zaslov were set to meet in Peristerne during the Olympics.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Both KHN and WBD sources have confirmed this as a
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: late and we're told that that is set for this weekend.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming this past weekend. So basically what that is
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: saying is so they had a deadline in their negotiatings
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: where AEW had to exclusively negotiate with Warner Brothers Discovery,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: they couldn't negotiate with anybody else. Yeah, now that that
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: exclusivity is expired, AW.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: Now can they could talk to other people?
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: They could talk to whoever they want now. And I
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: was kind of bouncing some networks around in my head.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Part of me doesn't see Fox doing it because Fox
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: is already kind of stepping out of the wrestling business
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: now with with you know, them not renewing the contract
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: with SmackDown.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: And plus with recent if you've seen it on SmackDown,
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: they are always censoring, blacking out the feed when they
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: were you know, the crowd chancing exactly, and there's a
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: lot of that in AW.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot more of that in AEW. And
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: you know Turner and then they Warner Brothers, they tend
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: to be a little more lenient with them on that.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: I sat there, I thought maybe ABC, but I don't
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: see ABC doing something like that. Maybe, but it would
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: be a toss up. Yeah, ABC is of course they
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: are owned by Disney, and Disney likes to be a
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: little squeaky clean.
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: Disney already semi has a thing with WWE in other
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: countries because yeah, the ww network and like India and
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: Philippines there, it's actually on Disney Plus there.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, so that that wouldn't work out. And
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: then I sat there and thought NBC. But NBC is
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: you know, they already have the thing with Peacock and
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: everything with WWE, and then.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: They're gonna have SmackDown for the next five years.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, on one of the net Yeah, on the USA network.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: So I don't know what network they could actually talk
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: to off the top of my head. I can't think
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: of one.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know big I don't know which big
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: time network. Now. The reason why probably and this is
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: just pure speculation, why the ex go back to the
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: go back to the roots. Yeah, but the one of
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: the reasons why I think that the negotiating window has expired.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Warner Brothers Discovery has uh sort of their hands full
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: right now between this negotiating with a w and then
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: also everything that's going on with the NBA at the moment.
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: Did they lose it or whatever.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: So, uh, the NBA, I can't remember who it was
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: with they had they Uh they were some there's another
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: network that was going to be picking them up.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: Didn't Amazon I.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: Think it was I think it may have been Amazon.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: It was they. I think it was like eleven billion
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: dollars or something like that. Well, Turner and him tried
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: to match it, yeah, and tried to I guess in
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: a way block it and all of this. Now there's
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: some legalities that are going to go into it, and
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: possible some suing and you know, court fees and all
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: this other stuff, and possibly a settlement out of the deal.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: Don't know, pure speculation, but I would say that that
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: right there, even though it may not seem like, you know,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: on face value, that it is affecting these negotiating talks,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: I think it is definitely going. It is definitely playing
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: a role backstage, especially because the NBA for T and
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: T in them is I mean that's huge, yeah for Turner.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: Now you know the the I think it's inside NBA,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: the show with Charles Barkley and Shack and all of
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: them hugely popular with basketball fans. That is not going
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: to happen allegedly anymore that's going to go over to
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: the new network. And it's just it's a giant it's
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: just a big mess between the two. Yeah. So and
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: who knows. Also maybe maybe Warner Brothers is like, Hey,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: we kind of want to step out of the sports
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: stuff for a little bit. Yeah, but then they also
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: have the thing I think they have what is it
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: with NASCAR next year? They have uh, they're gonna have
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: four races on T n T. So, I don't know,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: I don't know. It's it's it's kind of all over
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: the place. I'm not an expert on this. It's just
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: pure speculation. So but speaking of AWWW and all of that,
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: we talked last week, and we've talked before on the show.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: About fantasy books.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: We did we started up fantasy booth to the entire
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Super Show Welcome, Yes, exactly, we see. We we have
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: predictions on this show, not just predictions for the for
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: the pay per views, which we will get to that
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: in the next segment, but we kind of we were
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: sort of calling this, yeah, like so we want a
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: hand fantasy book to our own super show.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: And then a couple of weeks and where the dude
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: describe this.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're they're they're they're listening to us.
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: So last week we were talking about how Tony Kahan
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: uh talked about wanting to possibly you know, said it
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: would be interesting to do a super show with WWE.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: WW sort of has a response to that now after
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: being asked by Richard Deitsch on the Sports Media podcast
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: about working with a EW to do a combined card,
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: Chris Legentile, Sure, yeah, we'll go with that.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: He's like the talent relations guy or whatever.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he is, uh, yeah, he's part of like all
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: of the talent relations. I think he's also Yeah for WWE.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: I think he's also part of their communications department, et cetera,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: et cetera. He said, quote, no interest, there's no shot
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: there that's being fired. It's just to say, the answer
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: to you question is that no conversation has been had
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: in relation to that. So pretty much the way I
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: am taking that quote is there are just there hasn't
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: been no talks about that. Yeah, like they He goes
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: further into the interview to say that there is great
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: talent outside of WWE. They just they haven't talked about
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: the possibility of doing a show like that.
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: I feel like someone's gonna have to reach out for that.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: It be a real conversation.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so. Now some people are are less
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: into this and like, oh, Jeff, there's no possibility that that's
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: ever gonna happen. They probably been saying that to us
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: for the past couple of weeks. Yea, again, Jesse Ventura
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: was able to come back to WWE. So I think
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: that there's a strong possibility that this could happen. I
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: think it's a possibility. Maybe not a strong possibility, but
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: a possibility.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Nonetheless, I mean, look at the relationship between w W
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: and T and A. Who would have thought that would
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: have ever happened exactly?
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: And I will say this, Okay, the tribalistic fans online
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: that tend to get a little uh, a little offensive
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: about their sides, I feel like if this does happen,
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: their heads is just going to explode, like it's it's
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: it's going to short it's going to short circuit what
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: they're you know, what they're how their brains wired up
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: and everything. And you know, hopefully this is coming from
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: somebody who did get a little tribalistic at one point. Yeah,
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: hopefully they can realize that there's good wrestling out there,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: and yeah, you don't have to stick with just one company.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: If listen. If you prefer W be fine. If you
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: prefer AW, fine, if you prefer New Japan, DNA, GCW.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I mean there's a whole, like you know, underground sort
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: of deal with wrestling fans for death matches. They love
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: death matches over anything else. Fine, whatever, that is what
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: you want to listen to. But I think for the
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: sake of business, for the sake of just how this,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: I guess this friction has been between the two sides.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: I think it would be rather interesting and I think
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: it would be good for everybody if there was able,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: if they were able to pull something like that off.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: Honestly, with this, if Shane Man does go to AW,
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: he might be able to help that conversation.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: That's true. I think again this goes back to Shane
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: has the ability to have the foresight on this type
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: of stuff, So maybe he could see that. Maybe he could,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: you know, in turn and talk to his sister Stephanie,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: and in turn she could talk to Triple H and
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: then Nick con and et cetera, et cetera. Think that
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: will also hang on how this TV deal goes for them. Yeah,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: so we'll just have to wait and see. It seems
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: like to me that both sides are still a little
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: they're still positive. Yeah, Like they're still like they're still
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: kind of happy with how things are going, and that
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: there's a good possibility that they will have their TV
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: deal renewed. I just think that maybe with everything that's
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: going on with the NBA, that Warner Brothers has had
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: to put their resources elsewhere. Yeah. So, but and actually,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: last little bit before we take the break and we
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: go ahead and we start talking Summer Slam. That was
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: last night, very good show, by the way. Yeah, we
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: will again. We'll give more thoughts on that, just to
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: give you an update on the G one climax right now.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: Block A is led by Evil with ten points, followed
• 19:52

• 20:43

• 20:50
  Speaker 1: go going to go ahead and stop it right there.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: We're gonna go ahead and take our first break, and
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: when we come back, we will have our review of
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: summer sam talk predictions and whatnot, and just our general

• 21:31
  Speaker 1: champ is here. I was getting ready to get to
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: that because I went ahead and stooped to Jason's level
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: and I shouldn't have done that last week. Last night,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: actually WW had their SummerSlam p l E out of
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: out of the Cleveland Browns Stadium. Yeah. I thought it
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: was a good show. Yes, I thought. I thought it
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: was a very good show. Just to go ahead and
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: get the predictions.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: It was nice to watch a show at a normal
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: time here in America where it belongs.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I was gonna say, get ready for the
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: end of the month because they're gonna be in Berlin. Yeah. So,
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: but we're gonna go ahead and get the predictions out
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: of the way again. I went ahead and stooped to
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: Jason's level. By the way, last week, I know that
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: as the show was ending, he's he he in a
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: distance said, you know you're not on my level, which
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: the truth is I wasn't. I didn't at that point.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: I hadn't stooped as low as he did. But I
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: went ahead and anyway, so we both stooped to a
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: new low. And now Josh at the jam both of you. Now,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: now we just gonna get Now, we're just gonna get
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: the belt from Jason's. Now we just have to get
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: the belt from Jason.
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Again, we don't know where he's at he's at an
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: undisclosed location somewhere. I ain't got a clue. He He's
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: all we got was I won't be in for two weeks.
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: So yeah, he's he's somewhere, somewhere, somewhere out there.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: He's on a journey, Yes he is.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: But like I said, SummerSlam was last night, went ahead
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: and three hour pre show? Good lord? They had a
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: three hour pre show they did? Oh I did? Okay,
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: So so I watched a replay on it. I didn't
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: get a chance to watch it the night it happened,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: and I just actually just got done watching it. What
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: time is it? About an hour and a half ago,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: but well, almost two hours ago. I just finished watching
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: the entire the entire p l E. I didn't know
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: they did a three hour pre show.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Did it start at four o'clock?
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: It did? Oh, I'm pretty sure it was to go
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: against Collision.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Must it had to be petty stuff?
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: Collision? Was that five o'clock?
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, that's just petty stuff. That's listen. My last
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: name is petty, and I don't even appreciate that kind.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Of pettiness, which which doesn't make an entire since because
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: usually the pre shows are two hours, so it would
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: have went against anyways.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean who who did you watch any of
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: the pre show?
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: Well it caught like the end of it just before
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: subs came on or SummerSlam came on?
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Wrong, I say, wrong, Big five. Yeah, so that has
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: been announced to finally Yeah, oh serviv series. Yeah, okay
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: we can. Oh it's gonna be in Canada, Vancouver. Yeah, okay,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: Andrew's arena, get ready, Reynolds? What is it?
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: War games again?
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: All right? Well, I think war Games has to go
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: with Survivor series. Now they kind of go hand and
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: hand together, and also without war Games. I mean, what
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: is Survivor series just I mean, it's Survivor series, but
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: it's it's a ten person elimination tag.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: You know what I think they should do, combine the
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: Survivor series elimination match with the Wargames match.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: I agree, Yeah, I agree with that.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: So you have the elimination style in the war Games,
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: but maybe get rid of the staggered entrance of the
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: war Games. Yeah, produce the time a little bit.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Possibly, just kind of go ahead and have Well then again,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: if they're in a cage, do you is there even
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: a point in having a tag at that point, I.
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: Just eliminated however, which way?
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean I guess you could do it
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: like a tornado tag you feel and then just do it,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: just do an entire elimination could be But yeah, like
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: Survivor Series back when it were first introduced, was you know,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: a little groundbreaking, but that was also then, And I'm
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: not trying to diss Survivor Series, but like, come on
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: out of the Big Five and we're talking.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: To this, I actually trying to get rid of it.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: One year. I did hear about that contract and fans
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: backlashed on it, which.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: Is which is kind of funny. Yeah, I mean, well,
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: I mean it is events. But when I'm talking Big Five,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: I'm talking WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, SummerSlam, money in the Bank, now, yep,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: that's considered a Big Five event, and of course Survivor Series. Ye, WrestleMania,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: it's Mania. It's never gonna go anywhere. SummerSlam is basically
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: the halfway point throughout the year. It is the Summer's
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: version of WrestleMania, sort of the second biggest show. The
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: Royal Rumble has implications for WrestleMania, and then the money
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: in the Bank has implications for the entire year, where
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Survivor series it's just there. It's just kind of there.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, there's not really. I mean, I guess you
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: could book it to where it does have implications, but
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: in the grand scheme of things, I mean, yeah, you know.
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: I mean and one thing about money the Bank, I
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: kind of view it now as almost the so like
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: Royal Rumble is to Wrestlemnia. I have view money to
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: make like Summer Slim, kind of like the Summer Rumble.
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: So just it's contract can be used anytime.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, sort of, But I think what's going to happen.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: This is just my thought. King of the Ring is
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: going to be that because think SummerSlam last night. It's
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: now being you know, whoever wins King and Queen of
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: the Ring, they automatically get a shot at it next year,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: which is what they do, yes, I hope to do.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: And at that point they may be it may actually
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: get bumped up to a Big six.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: Possibly.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: I mean a conversation could be had that Elimination Chamber
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: could be a Big six because it has Wrestlemani implications
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: to it as well. True, but it's more of like
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: the the leftover from Royal Rumble.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: It is elimination Chamber has sort of taken that no
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: way out.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well it did replace the.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: Technically, yeah it did replace it, but it has like
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: no way out. Was that pay per view in between
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: the Royal Rumble and WrestleMania at that point? Well, I
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: guess it depends on which point in time look at it.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: But it was mainly a SmackDown pay per view, so
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: you know it, you know, to build towards WrestleMania. But anyway,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: just to get off that topic and just to.
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: Get back one thing, I think they should remove money
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: in Bank to June instead of being one month before SummerSlam. True,
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: because two big fives back to back is kind of weird.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe June or May.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: Well, then you have WrestleMania money Bank.
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: Oh that's true. That's true because they are moving it up,
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: so it's not. Okay, Yeah, June will actually be a
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: good time because that gives you a couple of months
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: in between every big paper, big p l e. But
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: speaking of big pl.
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: Jelly rolling right in the Summer Slam exactly, So jelly
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: roll always.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: I like jelly Roll, Okay, I enjoy them. You know,
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: I maybe I'm not that old. Sometimes sometimes the celebrities
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: they get on the shows I can care less about,
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: like Hardy can care less about them.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: I liked the song that Hardy did for h Rumble,
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: but his performance just sucked. Yeah, it's kind of I
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: don't know if it was a sound isshue or what,
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: but it wasn't great.
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't. But jelly Roll this was good. His
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: was his was his was good. I I enjoy the
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: simple stage.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll also want to say I like that they
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: went ahead and got the music performance out of the way.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: True.
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: They did the America beautiful. Then he went right into
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: his song and he was done other than a little
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: bit later.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I don't like a mini concert in
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: the middle of the show. I mean because I guess,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: like if you're at home, that's usually when I go
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: and use the bathroom and do what else I gotta do.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Get get some neat or some you know, get me
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: some pop or whatever. But I do like that how
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: they started off with that.
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: I just had a thought, what if they do this
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: is like a halftime like football?
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: What like the mini concert? Yeah, I mean it's basically
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: it's basically intermission is what it is.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: Yes, but I have him do like, I don't know,
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: like three or four songs. I don't know.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: I mean it depends on town. Yeah, yeah, it kind
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: of kind of comes down to that. But like I said,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: I do like the simple stage. They'd like the setup.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: I like to save. I like the idea of saving
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: the bigger stages for WrestleMania and the other shows, you know,
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: either you know, if it's like Backlash or something, they
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: had just had the regular SmackDown and roll stage and
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: then stadium shows like this like Summer Shoot.
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: With like backlashing, them going internationally always tone it down
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: so they can feel that stadium or arena exactly.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: But I just I feel like there's I just feel
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: like there's a little bit more of an intency with it,
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: just with having the simple stage, you know, the smaller
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: stage and then the walkway and everything. I liked that
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: the opening match was excellent. Yeah, I thought it was
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: very good, predictable, we called it. I called it well
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: us collectively on the show, But no, it was not
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: just there, but also online I saw a lot of
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: people saying, Okay, no, this is this is exactly how
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: this is about to go. Didn't did not realize it
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: was going to go the way it did, But I
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: did like how I did think it was an excellent
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: opening match.
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: Unfortunately not getting that Dominic on a ladder match or whatever.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: No, we're not gonna get a custody of done, which
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: I really wanted. I just wanted Dominic Mysterio to be
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: the only person in WW history to have a custody
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: battle at SummerSlam twice.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: Allkin says, if we ever thought Rio Ripley was really bad,
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: I think we're going to see absolute craziness now.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. And also I mean and later on the show,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: and we'll get to it the employe. There's straight up
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: an emplosion going on with Judgment Day, Like there was this,
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: and then there was the Damien Priest and Finnbalor thing
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: later on the show.
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: So is Carlito the leader now?
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know, is he? I don't like carlitos Carlo
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: didn't even know if he's the leader. I don't know.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know on that one. But I did think
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: it was. It was an excellent opening match. I liked
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: all the her work and her shoulder and everything, and
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: then popping it in. I thought it looked kind of
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: weird because it just to me, it didn't look entirely dislocated.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: I could tell you the way.
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: She had an angle, it looked like there's a little
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: There's a little bump at the top. I did see that.
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: But I think the second pop in thing was a
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: little unnecessary. But yeah, she did it in the corner.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but when she did it off the announced table,
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: I mean that was that was kind of gnarally. Yeah,
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: the uh Sammy's ain't bron Breaker match short and sweet?
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: And it's good that Broun, that that bron Breaker was
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: is able to now hold some gold. Yeah, and I
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: do have a main roster on the main roster. Yes,
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: he was able to. He's able. This is his first
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: title on the main roster. And I do have a question.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: Would you rather take a spear from bron Breaker or
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: a chop from Gunther?
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: I'm going to say a chop from Gunther?
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: Oh really, yeah, you wouldn't want to take us a
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: twenty three mile an hours from Bronbrek.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: You know the funny thing about Broun, he's big, but
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: he's kind of short. Yeah, so he doesn't make him
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: look big. It's it's a weird conundrum.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: It's it's also it's also interesting because he is not
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: as big as his dad and uncle were. Like his
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: dad and uncle both were just massive in the ring
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: and shouldn't have been able to been that agile. But no,
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: I think that, Yes, br I think I think it was.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: It was a short match, short and sweet to the point.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: It's still crazy to me that bron Breaker hits the
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: ropes as hard as he does. But yes, goeshead Spears.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: Sammy won two three New Icy Champion. Moving on to
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: Logan Paul and l A. Knight. Yeah, Cleveland doesn't even
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: want Logan Paul. Like he was getting booed as soon
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: as he came to the door. Now, some of that
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: I think it's it's not that they're not going to
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: go into it, but there's the sort of controversy with
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: the Olympics and everything, with some of his comments. They're
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: just part just you know, that's not the only I
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: will say this, that's not the only controversy surrounding him
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: at the moment. He's not very much liked amongst people.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: But Cleveland doesn't even want Logan Paul. Also is MGK
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: going back to rap. Is he switching genres again?
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: Because did he switch genres? I don't know.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: I'm just saying the way he looked, he did not
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: look like this whole punk rock thing that he's been
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: doing the past few years.
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: I've never slidified him to one genre with those kind
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: of like a.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Mix sort of. Yeah, he was like more rap, more
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: hip hop, and then you know here recently he went
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: to a more punk rock type deal. Just the way
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: he looked, I don't know, I just felt like it
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: was interesting, and plus I don't know that the aura
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: between both of them kind of it doesn't shock me
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: that MGK walked out with Logan Paul.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: I did like, but he's also from Cleveland. I didn't
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: know that.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I didn't know that either until they said it
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: on commentary, which, by the way, commentary was good. Yeah,
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Pat McAfee, it's going to be real fun when they
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: get to Netflix. Yeah, and they just kind of.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: Like, well, he might not be there at the start.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: He may not be because of college football, but college
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: football typically ends in January, so the first few episodes
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: he may not be there, and then once February gets
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: comes around, probably around the rumble. That's when we're going
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: to see Pat McAfee come back. But I did like
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: how La Knight came back with Logan Paul's vehicle after
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: taking it the night before. It smacked down breaks the window.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: But I would have liked it better if it was
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: totally trashed. Yeah, Like I feel like I was sitting
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: there thinking about that. I was like, it would have
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: been better if like the like the bumper and everything
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: was falling off of it and there was a couple,
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: you know, the thing it was just got dense all over.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: But I'm sitting there thinking, like, Logan Paul, probably we
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: don't want them like tearing his vehicle up like that.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: The first little stab at the window kind of veered
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: off and then he finally then La Knight was able
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: to break the window entirely. I had a Goldberg incident there, Yes,
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: sort of almost did, except he had a pipe instead
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: of his actual fist. Logan Paul, I would still say this,
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: Logan Paul is he's a natural in the ring, that
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: springboard from the.
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: Top celebrity turned wrestler, so much so that you can
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: just call him the wrestler exactly.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, he just he just seems like he's he's
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: he's very comfortable in the ring.
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: But I think he has a background in amateur wrestling.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: He does both. Both him and his brother both have
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: a background in that. I think they I think they
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: both went to college for that. They both were amateur
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: wrestlers in college. But l A. Knight finally has some
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: gold main roster, yep, main roster, but it's granted.
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: His NXT one was the million Dollar Championship.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: So yeah, because I had the double check. Yeah, I
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: was sitting there, I was like, is that is this
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: his first title? I did see the million Dollar Championship thing,
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: and I was like, okay. And then by the time
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: I was sitting there reading it, that's when Michael Cole
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: was like, you know, this is uh La Knight's first title,
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: won the main roster and all of that. So yeah,
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: uh Moving on from that, Naya Jacks to me, she
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: has significantly improved in the ring. I mean she is,
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: she's not She's not batching as much as she was.
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: I don't think that she is, and and I'm not
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: I'm not throwing shade or anything like that. I'm not
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Jason and have this burning hatred for Nya Jacks. I
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: do feel like he hates Tyrists a little more. Yeah,
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: But Nya Jacks, she does not seem as clumsy in
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: the ring as she has been before.
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: And I feel like she's much more in tune to
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: her character now that she was in the past.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, Yeah, absolutely, I never.
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: Really bought into her character before, but now I like, yeah,
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: I feel that she's really this you know, villain or whatever.
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And then the ending with you know, with Tiffany
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: Stratton coming out. I was sitting there. I was like, oh, okay,
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: she she's gonna she's gonna cash in, and then it
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: uh then you know, Bailey hits Tiffany, and then you know,
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Nya takes advantage of this opportunity. I'm sitting there thinking,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: I'm like, did I realize what just happened? Then I
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: sit there and thought I was like, okay, no, I
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: bet you this was all plan Yeah, Like, because she
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: was sitting there, I was going back and watching the replay,
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: she knew Tiffany Stratton was there, she knew she was
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: about to cash in and everything, and there was no
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: animosity afterwards. So yeah, I think that was that was
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: sort of that was that was all in the plan.
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it does make me wonder does Tiffany does she
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: decide to go for Naya at some point or does
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: she say screw and just go over to Monday Night
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: Row and take that title, go for that title?
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: I mean maybe, Yeah, I mean I think it would. Hmmm,
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: that's interesting. I don't think that Live and Rhea are done. No, no, there,
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: they're not done with one another. Now, is that with
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: the title on the line, does Tiffany come over sort
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: of take go ahead and take that title out of
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: the picture to where it's just pretty much a grudge
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: match between the two of them.
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, granted, Tiffany could hold out for like months,
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: so yeah, she just went it last month.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so she's yeah, she still got which I'm like,
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: I don't like. And I said it before when we talked,
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: when we talked money in the bank, it's okay to
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: go ahead and have them cash it in. I like
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: when somebody holds the title for a while. I'm just
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: it's just that that looming threat is always there. Yeah,
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: but again I thought, I feel like Nia has significantly
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: approved in the ring, and I did enjoy the ending
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: to that match. Yeah. Moving on to Drew McIntyre and
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: seeing Punk with seth Rawlins as the special guest referee.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: The hatred Drew McIntyre has for CM Punk could power
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: a small village. That man has such a burning like
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: in k fape Turns, has such a burning hatred for
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: CM Punk that it is It's just funny, Yeah, just
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: funny how how much he hates him. And I think
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: also with just how polarizing Punk has He was polarizing before,
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: but just how polarizing he has become. I think it's
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: very smart to take that and what interwoven it. Yeah,
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: you know, just pretty much bring it into this feud
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: through Drew McIntyre. Excellent match and great use of the
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: dynamic between the competitors and the special guest referee. Yeah,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: and all of that. Seeing Punk pretty much cost himself
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: that match. Yeah, I mean that's the best way you
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: can put that. I mean, that's pretty much how commentary
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: put it.
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean I was surprised that he lost his
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: first televised singles match, but I mean, if there's a
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: way to do it, there you are.
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: And also I'm not I'm not saying this to be
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: facetious or anything. I'm glad he didn't get injured. Yeah, yeah,
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: I was a little worried about that. I was like, yeah, man,
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: if he goes out there and he gets injured again,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: like just it's it, it's just it at that point,
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: just quit, don't want it. But I'm glad he didn't
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: get injured. I do like how, you know, I do
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: enjoy seth Rawlins, how I'm flamboyant he is. And some
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: of the memes that have come out of this. You
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: know you've seen, you know, seeing Punk saying and Drew
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: McIntyre I hate you, and then Drew McIntyre going, I
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: hate you even more and than seth Rawlins over there,
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: like my outfit is going to be great, So very
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: much enjoy that. I'm interested to see where this is
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: going to go from there.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: I want to sell that the bed Blood possibly Bad Blood.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: Didn't it already sell out?
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: I think it did.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think it did automatic yeah or yeah,
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: or it's yeah, or it's really close. I think it
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: did sell out, though, tell.
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: You what else sold out. But we'll get there in
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: a minute.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we will. We will get there one in
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: one moment. But yes, I just I feel like the
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: grudge match between the two. Yeah, seem Punk's anger got
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: the best of them there. His frustrations with Seth rawlins
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: because it wasn't really Rowlins's fault with how slow the
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: counts were, you know, and think he's kind of just
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: getting thrown around in there, and then see him Punk
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: is just imploding a little bit. But again, I think
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: that Drew Mcatire's hatred for him could have power a
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: small village moving on. Like what we said earlier in
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: the segment, the Judgment day is imploding and hopefully, in
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: my opinion, hopefully this leads to Finn Baler being taken
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: away more serious and he has been. Yeah, and I'm
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: hoping it leads to the return of Damon ballor Yeah,
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: there was the match between Damien Priest and Gunter.
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: We have a smart baby face who actually looks at
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: the video to see the replay.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: They know him.
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: Pump takes some notes, Yeah exactly, he would have saw
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: Seth not really doing they just picked it up the bracelet.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, which this was also this was this was
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: like really the only unexpected thing on the show. I
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: didn't see Finn turning the way he did, so I'm
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: I'm glad that there was something.
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: Speculation about it, because there's been speculation that Finn has
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: not actually truly been Judgment Day this whole time, because
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: if you look back, he actually teamed with Liv Morgan
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: before he joined Judgment really against the Judgment Day.
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, I believe forgot about that. Okay, so well,
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: but so you know, Damian Priest, he goes for the
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: cover on Gunter. Finn Balor grabs Gunter's leg, throws it
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: on the rope. Priest does not see it right away.
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: He like what Josh said, he's a smart baby face.
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: He looks. He sees to replay with everybody else and
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: just like with see him bunk. His frustration, his anger
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: gets in the way, he gets off focus. He goes
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: after Finn, and then Gunter just does what Gunter does,
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: and now finally Gunter has a world title.
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: The forever champion. That's what I call Gunter.
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: Yes, if you look at his WWE career, it's like
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: eighty twenty percent split of when he's been champion and
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: not been champion.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: I don't know if that's exact percentage, but I mean
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: it's basically well.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because he was I mean, he was UK champion
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: for a while.
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: He came into NX TUK one title like right off
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: the bat, held that title for like eight hundred days. Yeah,
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: lot in UKG.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: Pretty much two and a half years.
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and he after he lost the title, he went
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: to main NXT was only there for a short pit
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: came to main roster in twenty two one. Icy title,
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: held that for nearly two years. Yep, and here we are.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, lost the title to Sammy pretty much has been
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: on a win streak ever since then and now has
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: now taken over Priest. I'll say this, I enjoyed Priest
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: run with title. Yeah. I feel like, and we've said
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: it before on the show, that Priest run with the
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: title has been better than Cody's run. Yeah. I did
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: not think it should have went any further than SummerSlam.
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: I think this was the right time to make the
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: call to take the belt off of him and throw
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: it on Gunther. Now, how long does Gunther hold the title?
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, judging by the history with him
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: and what you just said with him, with the UK
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: title and the Icy title, He's probably gonna be holding
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: it for quite a while. Yeah, I mean I think
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: that to me, I think that's the only way to
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: do it. Yeah. After that, the Mizz and Our Truth
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: come out to announce the attendance record, because you can't
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: have a w wpl E without announcing attendance record somewhere.
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: Especially a big fuve. It always has to be a
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: big fuve.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: It always has to be. It's kind of funny because
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: earlier in the show, Michael Cole says that they had
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: like fifty some thousand people there, and then and then
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: they announced that it's fifty seven some thousand, and then
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: later on Arn Anderson we get a wowed Arn Anderson
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: pop up. He talks about that there's fifty four thousand
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: people out there, So the numbers kind of going all
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: over the place. But again, you can't.
• 44:16
  Speaker 3: Numbers don't lie.
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't go ask WrestleMania three.
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: I'm glad that they specified American attendance because the biggest
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: summer sun is actually ninety two Wimbley Stadium. Yeah, yeah, exactly,
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: original Wimbley Stadium.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: Jelly Roll did an amazing choke slam.
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: On Austin theory, I.
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: Mean, Grant Austin probably took all the work there, but
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: you know.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's just I don't know, it looked good.
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: It did. It looked real good for somebody that has
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: never been in the wrestling ring, I thought it was good.
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: It's also unjuslike jelly roll. Yeah, but yeah, he's.
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: Got an okay song with the fog and reverse.
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: He does, he does. But so we get to the
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: main event, Cody versus Solo Sokoa in Bloodline Rule for
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: the Undisputed w W Championship. To me, this was Cody's
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: best match since becoming champion. Yeah. Yeah, We've talked on
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: the show and said that, you know, we felt like
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: his run has gotten a little cold. Yeah, And I
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: think this right here just kind of relt it a
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: little bit. I mean, everybody was showing up. You had that,
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: you had g O D. You had Jacob Faughtu showing up.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: You had Kevin Owens and Randy Orton coming out to
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: even the odds.
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: I was surprised about them because they were supposed to
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: be like injured or whatever.
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: Exactly when when he said when Arn randomly popped up
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: a wild Arn Anderson, I almost thought, like, are are
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: we getting Ricky Starks or something like that?
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I don't it was it was I when
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: he said, you have other friends. Yeah, I did feel
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: like it was he was alluding to Roman. Yeah, because
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: we did get Roman Reigns's return. It was heavily speculated
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: going into this event that Roman Reigns was going to
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: turn it, so much so that I even mentioned it
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: on Hotline this past week. Roman Reigns comes back. Pretty much.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: Even the odds put Solo to co a sort of
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: in this place, has has new March, says OTC original
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: tribal Chief.
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: And speaking of the sales, they had a custom title
• 46:19
  Speaker 3: for him sold out in an hour.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: Those things are six hundred dollars.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: They made one, three hundred and sixteen of them to
• 46:27
  Speaker 3: commemorate how long his rain was.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, that's that's crazy. So yeah, this pretty much
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: just kicks off the bloodline civil War.
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: Oh and his theme music they used his wrestling ninety
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: two to one from this year.
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I was sitting there, I was listening. Because I
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: was listening, I was watching one of my computer and
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: I was leaning forward. I was like, is it is this?
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: Is this really his? I was like, oh no, no, no, no, no,
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: this is like the original one. Yeah.
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: It threw me off for a second when it first played.
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: Wait a second, was like, oh okay, using the WRESTLEMANI version,
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: the epic orchestral version.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so maybe this is like his face name, yeah,
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: because they Yeah, that's that's the best way I could
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: put it. There is speculation though that Jacob Fatu was
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: injured in this match when he when he did jump
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: to the outside onto the announcer table on the cody.
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: I mean it looked like he hit his right leg
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: coming down replay.
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: It didn't look like it hit bad like it would
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: have gotten. It looked like a normal head basically.
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But yeah, sometimes when it looks normal, it's not.
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: Because so there was According to some reports, Jacob Fatu
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: had to be helped to the back and could not
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: put any weight on his right leg. He was also
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: spotted after SummerSlam a wearing.
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: Yes someone posted a picture like on I G or something.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah you said Roman reigns were coming for you
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: or whatever, and it's just him.
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: He might have just been selling to I don't know, see.
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's hard to tell, but that is what
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: some reports are. That's, you know, until we get some
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: confirmation on that, which will be at Monday night.
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: I saw a great tweet on the X Twitter whatever
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: you want to call it these days, it's bloodline rules,
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: aren't give him the glock?
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, But so Cody drew the help of Roman
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: Reigns was able to retain his title. Closes the show,
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: show out and everything. My final thoughts on the show,
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: It was great from top to bottom. I thought it
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: was well paced. It was predictable, but that's not a
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: bad thing. Some people hate predictability. I think sometimes it is.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: It is a good thing to have some type of
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: predictability because like you know, yes, you could have a swerve,
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: but you can't. You shouldn't have a swerve for the
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: sake of having it. Yeah, I feel like the Finn thing,
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: Like I said, I was not expecting that. On my part,
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: I felt like that was to me acceptable, that was okay.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: But other than not thumbs up from me for some er.
• 48:49
  Speaker 3: Good Old Uncle Dave had a couple of comments. He
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: said it was a good show. He's like, yeah, it
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: was predictable. That but I mean, if it's predictable, then
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: it was probably good.
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: But he had a weird comic to saying, if you
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: were looking for great wrestling, this is not a good show.
• 49:04
  Speaker 3: What I thought, the wrestling is pretty fine.
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: I thought I thought the wrestling was good on it.
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: I thought that I thought the like I said, the
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: opening match was excellent. You know, you did have a
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: couple like like bron Breaker that was short. You did
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: have l A. Knight and Logan Paul that didn't really
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: have you know, but those matches didn't need that day.
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: He called this an angle show.
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I did see his comments on it, which I
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: guess there is some truth to that, because like this
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: is moving us to the next thing, which will be
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: Survivor Series. That's the next big p l E. I mean,
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: I know we have Bash and Berlin at the end
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: of this month, which, by the way, that entire week
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: is going to be interesting because you have Aw's all
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: in that Sunday and then that the Saturday. At the
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: end of the week, WWE is going to be in Germany,

  Speaker 1: are going to be in Europe around the same time.
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess Bashi and Berlin is going to kind
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: of be considered the September pay per view even though
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: it's in August, because I don't think they have one
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: in September.
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah don't. I don't think so either. But anyway, that's
• 50:09
