• 5:01
  back to part two of the WrestleMania forty XL coverage. We are doing our
• 5:06
  post show. I am your host, Wayne also known as Semi Dried Chicken.
• 5:10
  My voice is so much better, not one, but so much better.
• 5:16
  I'm excited to finally knock this out because it's just been real WrestleMania recabs,
• 5:26
  WrestleMania. All I see in my news feed is still my social media
• 5:30
  is just WrestleMania, WrestleMania, WrestleMania. I feel like it's gonna be another
• 5:34
  couple of weeks until I stop hearing the word WrestleMania. I'm excited here because
• 5:44
  you know what, if we have a little bit of time or you know,
• 5:46
  per match will go on into kind of Also, what's transcended since WrestleMania.
• 5:54
  I mean it's been two weeks and believe it or not, huh shit,
• 5:59
  really it does happen, right, after wrestle media, a lot of
• 6:01
  things change. If I can't do this alone, let me bring up the
• 6:04
  commentary. Let's get to it. Here we go, Drey Night two,
• 6:39
  Here we go, yep, yep, Night two. Let's get it in.
• 6:44
  Oh man, Uh dude, it felt it's crazy. It's two nights,
• 6:50
  and uh we know if we have a two night wrestling, we know
• 6:54
  we're gonna have a two part episode. So it's it's like four times a
• 7:00
  drain on the wrestling body here because uh, that's why I kind of missed
• 7:03
  the old pay per views versus one pay per view and we can cover in
• 7:08
  a short amount of time. Remember when they had like five matches? Was
• 7:12
  that like last month or something? We had like five matches in our last
• 7:15
  pay per view yep, and it felt kind of empty, yeah, kind
• 7:20
  of empty. And now and then they give us the the Bukkake of wrestling
• 7:26
  matches. We have so much wrestling just thrown at us at fucking once.
• 7:31
  Ah what with that said? Let me break him out here. He is
• 8:16
  Doyle. It's me. It's me. It's a d O Y L E.
• 8:22
  And today I miss WrestleMania so much. I downloaded that weekend song and
• 8:26
  listen to it on loop for five hours. Oh my god, I'll tell
• 8:30
  you what, You're right, I am so for the love of God,
• 8:35
  I was about to kick him from this party. Uh dude, I cannot
• 8:39
  get away from like the earworm of Cody Rhodes fucking music. But just maybe,
• 8:50
  just today, I kind of replaced it with Ria Ripley's entrance music.
• 8:54
  So I as you know, I'm I'm the world's biggest Cody family and I
• 9:00
  don't like that song. Yeah, my wife caught me. Hump, yes,
• 9:05
  you are you humming out the station? Yeah? Yeah, I think,
• 9:11
  Yeah, it's I do at work all the time, like I'm stuck
• 9:15
  in a forklift by myself. I mean, yeah, you just said you
• 9:20
  start starting humming in st a bitch, I'm doing it again. That's a
• 9:28
  personal problem for y'all. That the slightest what this guy was. So you
• 9:33
  don't have a what was the last I'll say, like wrestling theme song that
• 9:37
  was stuck in your head? Oh god, icking name of wrestling. I
• 9:48
  wake up every morning, I wake up with a different song in my head.
• 9:52
  But it's almost never a wrestling song that's ever stuck in my head.
• 9:58
  If anything, maybe the Triple H Is the Game. When I was watching
• 10:03
  a YouTube video a few weeks ago that was talking about like the most perfect
• 10:09
  wrestling theme songs, not like best ever perspective, but the most perfect wrestling
• 10:16
  things in terms of how well they fit the character. And then I think
• 10:20
  on that list they had the number one most perfect wrestling theme song that fit
• 10:24
  the character was Triple H Is the Game. Yeah, so that was probably
• 10:30
  it. But outside of that, nah, I wake up with a different
• 10:33
  regular song stuck in my head every morning, Like this morning was young Geez
• 10:37
  go crazy like a normal fucking person one right, pretty much, not like
• 10:41
  us. That's fucking Marks, that's us me. I mean Duos is thinking
• 10:48
  of wrestling themes, Well they did, I mean we said, we said
• 10:52
  it a couple episodes ago, but I think the Rumble episode, but they
• 10:56
  do kind of have a theme song problem. I think, uh, in
• 11:00
  that there's not a whole lot that are super memorable or super identifiable, even
• 11:07
  you know, the Royal Rumble, if it didn't immediately say who it was,
• 11:11
  like half the time, I'm like, who is this? Yeah?
• 11:15
  I think we talked about that maybe a few years ago. I think in
• 11:18
  one of our early episodes, we talked about how nobody had a really memorable
• 11:22
  interest them And this was at the time where I think, in my opinion,
• 11:26
  I didn't even see roman reigns as interesting as being that memorable. Of
• 11:30
  course now it is now. I think Roman's team is probably arguably iconic.
• 11:35
  So, but just a few years ago didn't really hit like that for me.
• 11:43
  Changed. Yeah, I think even now though, if you look at
• 11:50
  the overall roster, who really has outside the top stars like Roman, Cody,
• 12:00
  Seth, Becky Bianca, who else really has really a fing interesting that
• 12:07
  you can say is like that that good or that iconic. Jay Us is
• 12:13
  probably getting up there just for the hype factor. Drew McIntyre's is just kind
• 12:18
  of okay, you know it when you hear it, but I don't think
• 12:22
  it really his like that. We speaking of theme songs, my buddy Seamus
• 12:26
  is back and went back to his old theme song. Yeah, I noticed
• 12:31
  that I like the one I'm using a little better. Personally, I do
• 12:35
  too. I do too, because it would have like the white beam of
• 12:39
  light come out and it would like shine on him and since he's super pale,
• 12:45
  right, he looked like a glowstick. But he was just it was
• 12:46
  fucking funny. All right, guys. So WrestleMania Night two. The first
• 12:54
  night, we froze our asses off, right, second night it's pretty warm.
• 13:00
  Didn't need a blanket. Really, that's that Pennsylvania weather. Dude,
• 13:07
  that that Pennsylvania weather. Uh. You know this this time, I feel
• 13:11
  like a lot of people who are who were coming tonight too, came a
• 13:16
  little bit more prepared. I mean that's rare that you ever get any kind
• 13:22
  of concert, any kind of show, or a game anything that you can
• 13:26
  go back to back night one, night two and you know, oh yeah,
• 13:31
  I remember last night. Well, we're a little bit more prepared tonight.
• 13:35
  Uh, a little bit wiser, you know. Yeah, what was
• 13:39
  nice is like to NBA or NHL playoff games is kind of a little different.
• 13:43
  Yeah, I guess. I guess baseball playoffs in the in the in
• 13:48
  the North can be like that a couple of days in a row and can
• 13:52
  be fucking called. Yeah, really an issue when you're going to watch the
• 13:58
  Celtics on their way to ban number eighteen. Yeah, it'll be gosh,
• 14:09
  Chicago. So I think this time around, because the weather was a little
• 14:16
  bit better, I feel like there were a lot more tailgaters out because we
• 14:22
  got that pretty early. Uh, it's still kind of windy because I tried
• 14:26
  to set up a canopy and we set it up and it just was starting
• 14:30
  to like almost want to take off, and I was like, well,
• 14:33
  yeah, I don't need to be that guy. So I was like,
• 14:35
  let's put these away everybody. There was people playing tons of music. But
• 14:41
  was great. Was it was just wrestling theme music, you know. I
• 14:46
  thought that was great. We had the Macho Man next to us, which
• 14:50
  you can see Macho Man. He's in camera view. I think he's like
• 14:56
  a couple of rows near green shirt guy, so he'll be in the top
• 15:03
  left corner of your screen if you're looking at hardcam. I guess. But
• 15:09
  yeah, So I got a picture with the Macha Man. I know,
• 15:11
  Dwayne got a picture which I thought was great. There was there was four
• 15:13
  guys. One was stressed up as Cactus Jack. The other one was dressed
• 15:18
  up as do you love? Then you know where I'm going with this.
• 15:22
  Then we had mankind the fourth person. You're like, oh, could just
• 15:26
  be no, you would think so right. No, the man was dressed
• 15:31
  up as mister Soco. He was a massive sock and I was like okay.
• 15:37
  I was like, all right, I'll take it. So I know
• 15:41
  Dwayne got his picture taken with those guys. Everybody's so chill in the parking
• 15:46
  lot. And it's weird because you would think at like a wrestling event,
• 15:50
  you would see people drunk people going through tables like like those white plastic tables
• 15:54
  and shit and hurting themselves. But we didn't see that this time. So
• 15:58
  I was kind of glad at least it's not on our side of the parking
• 16:00
  lot. I could be completely wrong, there could be some other dude doing
• 16:03
  another wrestling podcast, but like, oh yeah, man, we went through
• 16:07
  three blasted tables. I hit him with the steel chairs. Great. Then
• 16:11
  he went through the porta party buffalo. Yeah yeah, right, yeah,
• 16:21
  So it was pretty tame in our parking lot. You know, got into
• 16:26
  the arena just as quick. Uh, you know, as soon as I
• 16:30
  got into the merch line for the sore was like packed are already wrapped around.
• 16:37
  You know. We got very uh pretty much the same seat, same
• 16:41
  row. Uh. So that was nice because you know, I thought that's
• 16:45
  that would be kind of difficult to get like at least that general area again
• 16:49
  for the second night in a row, so that was cool. So we
• 16:55
  had the big screen behind us. Still it was it was when they started.
• 17:00
  You know, if you're watching WrestleMania on Peacock's New as they started,
• 17:03
  I like how they do the pan around the arena. So I'm always like,
• 17:06
  oh, oh, there we are, there, we are sitting right
• 17:07
  there there. Just pause it real quick. Uh. You know they didn't
• 17:12
  they didn't get me on food like they did last time. I'm like,
• 17:15
  you know, well not last time. I should say, like I I
• 17:19
  got my WrestleMania which I'm drinking out of right now, my WrestleMania Commemorative cup
• 17:25
  which ran me all but fifteen bucks. Yeah, that's right, that's arena
• 17:30
  money right there. I know. It is literally the most expensive cup I
• 17:34
  have in my cabinet right now. Like I feel bougie drinking out this fifteen
• 17:38
  dollars WrestleMania cup. Hard plastic. So put it to the water for crystal.
• 17:44
  Uh huh, hard plastic. It's nice quality because uh. The next
• 17:49
  night at raw I at the Wells Fargo, I got myself with Wells Fargo.
• 17:53
  Get out the nice stuff, get the WrestleMania cups out. Yeah,
• 17:56
  that's right, dude, get the get out the Wrestling Mania cups, right,
• 18:00
  we got company coming over. Oh my god, yeah, damn right,
• 18:07
  goddamn right. Uh, you know what there is you know what,
• 18:12
  there is a shot where we probably are on cam. It's when when I
• 18:19
  forgot who they were called, when the duo was singing America the Beautiful.
• 18:26
  There is a part in the beginning where they do cut to a clear shot
• 18:30
  of the the big screen that was right behind us. We're very clearly on
• 18:37
  camera in that shot. Oh god, damn, I see it. I
• 18:41
  see it. I had I had. I had a red hoodie on so
• 18:44
  I can see myself only when I can remotely make out like, okay,
• 18:48
  who had the red hoodie on Sunday? Make out? None of us there
• 18:53
  but that shot. If you want to go to uh damn, seven minutes
• 19:00
  and sixteen seconds into WrestleMania Night two on Peacock, if you're listening, drop
• 19:07
  everything you're doing and immediately go find the biggest screen you can find. Uh
• 19:14
  yeah, finished listening to the episode and then do that. Yeah right,
• 19:18
  So, uh, you know what, Trey, why don't you just kick
• 19:22
  us off? I mean, they did the national anthem, they did American
• 19:30
  Beautiful Night two, which had a little over two hundred more people than Night
• 19:36
  one, seventy two thousand, seven hundred and fifty five people for Night Too.
• 19:41
  I don't know who to up the ass two hundred people are who thought
• 19:44
  they were too good for Night one. But then again, maybe they could
• 19:48
  only afford one night in they budget, and they figured they would go for
• 19:52
  the main one that you run, you're out there. Those folks made the
• 19:56
  right decision. Yeah, they may have also saw the weather report and said,
• 20:00
  yeah, you're doing that ship the show. Night Too I think was
• 20:06
  just better. Yeah, yeah, definitely. It was much more streamlined,
• 20:11
  really had the bigger moments. I think some of the entrances were probably a
• 20:15
  little bit bigger, bigger deal on Night one outside of I mean, like
• 20:18
  what was the only real big entrances on Night one? Like rear Ripley coming
• 20:22
  out with the band and the rock for the most part, I mean,
• 20:26
  Cody Cody have a major interest Night one. I don't think so, No,
• 20:32
  not really. I just like looking at like the oh didn't like Jay
• 20:38
  Cargo and Naomi have a yeah entrance. Yeah, I mean everybody had like
• 20:45
  WrestleMania entrance, but you know, obviously Jay had Lil Wayne and stuff,
• 20:51
  but it was like James had a good one. Yeah he had Lil Wayne.
• 20:56
  I don't know if I call it good. Yeah. I wonder how
• 21:00
  they decide who's who's getting what for entrance wise, you know what I mean,
• 21:04
  because like right, you know, and and night too, right off
• 21:08
  the bat, you get two huge entrances, right, but like some people,
• 21:11
  like like EO. Sky's entrance was just not you know, like damage
• 21:15
  control came out. They danced around a little bit, and they went away,
• 21:18
  and she walked down and they ramp and that was it, you know,
• 21:21
  like that was an entrance. I remember specifically being like she might you
• 21:25
  know what, I bet? I bet Doyle they probably put out the car
• 21:30
  like they laid out and they're probably looking into like, Okay, well,
• 21:33
  whose bands do you think we could actually get? I bet it's just like
• 21:37
  basically narrowing down to who's available because they'd have something some some some Japanese dancers
• 21:48
  or something, you know, Because I don't know, and this is kind
• 21:52
  of a thing with the whole show. There wasn't There wasn't those huge or
• 22:00
  as many anyway as usually. I feel like we usually get. It's like,
• 22:04
  hey, if you can't get the weekend, we got Lil Wayne.
• 22:07
  Hey, but don't worry if you can't get a little Wayne. We always
• 22:10
  have Limp biscuits in our back pocket. Yeah yeah, I think they let
• 22:15
  the wrestlers probably pitch some ideas too, like all right, you know you're
• 22:18
  in this match something. If you got any ideas, pitch them to us,
• 22:22
  and like, is there a budget, Like okay, it's more than
• 22:26
  whatever, ten grand or fifty grand, I don't know what the numb Probably
• 22:30
  that probably factors into the idea, but it's like, all right, we
• 22:33
  gonna do this. I will. We'll look into it, see if it's
• 22:34
  feasible. They may be like, yeah, sorry, we we we can't
• 22:38
  afford Tom Hanks. I just want to free wrestling. Let me and my
• 22:44
  band stay for the rest of the show for free, Like at least give
• 22:48
  me that. I mean, I'd want that. It's getting booked, and
• 22:52
  yeah, they probably get paid if it's you know, depending on what your
• 22:56
  fee is or you know, if you if you're a fan, maybe you
• 23:00
  decide to do it pro bono. But like hey, entrance, front road,
• 23:04
  YadA, YadA, backstage whatever. There's some level of negotiation on one
• 23:11
  end, and then also probably something else to the effect, Like I said,
• 23:17
  you would have given out whatever idea a wrestler may have. Like I'm
• 23:22
  pretty sure when Bianca last year in Hollywood had the little the Compton Girls,
• 23:27
  I'd imagine that was probably her idea. Imagine. I can't imagine Triple H
• 23:33
  thinking it at you. Well, as a matter of fact, we know
• 23:36
  it was her idea because she told us that, right. She tried to
• 23:41
  vince and he just it definitely was like it's probably a collaborative effort, I
• 23:52
  think on both sides, Like I could like the whole the the what do
• 23:59
  they call them the mummers for uh seths his idea? Oh dude, Like,
• 24:06
  uh yeah, let's talk about that real quick, these these two because
• 24:08
  like Damien had not Damien uh, Drew McIntyre had when all these guys come
• 24:15
  out kilts and swords and face paint like some brave heart ship, so that
• 24:19
  that was kind of cool, yeah dude, And then there were great yeah
• 24:26
  dude, and then Rollins haven't weird? I noticed it. I remember were
• 24:30
  sitting it in real time, but then being surprised by it when I rewatched
• 24:33
  it. Was that they didn't see him Punk's entrance wasn't on TV. I
• 24:38
  thought that was kind of weird. I mean, I knew it in real
• 24:41
  time because he came out and then they did the live, Laugh, Love
• 24:45
  Forever thing. Yeah, I knew that it was beforehand, but I just
• 24:48
  I thought that was a curious choice to not broadcast his entrance. Yeah,
• 24:53
  you would think they would they would show that to the fans and you know,
• 24:57
  let the fans or that pop come across on I wonder, I wonder
• 25:02
  if they have to pay and live in color if they show it on TV,
• 25:06
  and they don't, if they just play it in the arena. I
• 25:08
  bet maybe some sort of that's not a bad I wonder if they can save
• 25:14
  a couple of bucks by not I wonder if they even have to pay anything
• 25:18
  for that anymore, given that, I mean, obviously it's a living color
• 25:22
  song. But that's see him Punk. I mean, he's taking that pretty
• 25:25
  much with him wherever he goes. Almost wonder if he if that's just you
• 25:30
  know, not necessarily public domain. But yeah, it comes with CM Punk.
• 25:36
  So you guys notice now Drew has he has the cane corner of Flames,
• 25:42
  but he only hasn't come out of three obviously because he stands on top
• 25:45
  of the one. Could you imagine like if he accidentally forgot which corner it
• 25:51
  was, it would be a bad day for him. Ship. I was
• 25:57
  just looking at it because I was looking at my corner. He went to
• 26:00
  it. I was like, oh, dude, better not fucking space out
• 26:02
  or not just him the people setting up the pyro, oh ship sorry then
• 26:08
  left stop just to set it up. Yeah. Yeah, Drew's job to
• 26:12
  know wish one to go to or the referee tells them. Yeah, that
• 26:15
  one. By the way, I got on fire once. Yeah, elimination
• 26:22
  chamber. Yeah, when the pyro was coming up through the grate, through
• 26:26
  the grates in the ground and he was standing over top of one and got
• 26:30
  his ass lit up. I just wanted to put in a note here,
• 26:33
  it's it's they just put up the temperature because I didn't remember. But it
• 26:37
  was sixty one and it was a lot less fucking win. So yeah,
• 26:42
  but again can say that might have to be the temperature that they got off
• 26:47
  of weather dot com in the city and not the temperature at the stadium itself.
• 26:52
  Yeah, it felt nice. It ain't feel sixty one. Nice.
• 26:56
  So I'm watching the Mumbers opening, right, Uh. I I thought they
• 27:02
  were. It was so cool if they were all out there and they were
• 27:03
  all able to play his theme music and stuff with their instruments. But I
• 27:07
  was just like, kind of going on a little too long because we're sitting
• 27:11
  there. We were standing there well into the music, right, woeing,
• 27:17
  still rowing, still singing, and then his music hits and then we had
• 27:22
  to keep that energy going. But it was nice though. I did enjoy
• 27:27
  it. It was fun being there because you could see them setting the stuff
• 27:30
  up before. Yeah, so you're like, what's going on? What's it?
• 27:34
  And I think for the Mummers because it's a Philly thing, Everyone's like,
• 27:37
  oh, it's Mummers, It's Mummers. And then they proceeded to barely
• 27:41
  explain that on the actual prodcast, right they Yeah. Yeah, the most
• 27:48
  explanation you got, oddly enough, was probably from Pat McAfee because he referenced
• 27:52
  back to Jason Kelsey when he dressed his one after the Philly Super Bowl win.
• 27:56
  Yeah, that was about the most explanation you got. And yeah,
• 28:00
  I agree, it came across longer on Tell on the rewatch than it did
• 28:04
  in the stadium. I mean, the stadium didn't feel that long. It
• 28:07
  just kind of I guess we were caught up in the energy of it and
• 28:11
  distracted by everything else. Watching it on TV, I was like, damn,
• 28:14
  it's a long ass entrance. Did you guys hear about Drew's gear?
• 28:19
  Yeah, he lost he lost his gear attacked by a kitten. Uh.
• 28:25
  I guess Drew ups. I guess lost Drew's whatever he was planning on wearing.
• 28:30
  And I guess I guess Saturday, at some point when it became apparent
• 28:33
  that it was not going to materialize, Uh, they called in some production
• 28:40
  guy's wife or something, and she worked overnight, like through the night to
• 28:45
  get his gear, to get new gear made for him. Yeah, and
• 28:49
  I guess she finished somewhere around like nine in the morning or something. H
• 28:53
  fucking clutch Yeah right, that's crazy. I hope they paid her. Yeah,
• 29:03
  well, he can save his other gear for Clash Castle too. Challenges
• 29:08
  I mean like match Yeah, I mean, poor Seth dude, like back
• 29:14
  to back losses at Armania. You know, I could you know them pitching
• 29:19
  at to Seth in the room that he gets like, oh you're gonna get
• 29:22
  shafted both nights and he's like, I picked my mouth for he knew what
• 29:30
  it was. Yeah, oh dude, Yeah, but you know what,
• 29:33
  though Rollins has had his moments, he's been champed for three hundred and sixteen
• 29:38
  days, which is pretty impressive and for the first his you know, uh,
• 29:44
  forgetting that world title out there, I'm glad that title, Like when
• 29:48
  when we got it a world title back, I'm glad it wasn't like the
• 29:52
  hot potato of titles right right away, so it was nice to give it
• 29:56
  some prestige, I guess with seth Rawlins having it for three hundred and sixteen
• 30:02
  days. But man the workhorse of WrestleMania for sure, because this man lost
• 30:07
  everything and uh, this man takes no time off. Yeah, we thought
• 30:15
  we thought he wasn't even gonna make it to Mania. To be honest,
• 30:18
  a couple episodes ago, if you're if you've been a listener, there was
• 30:22
  a time where we thought, oh shit, like Ronins is not going to
• 30:26
  Mania. You know, Punk's not going to be at Mania. But uh,
• 30:30
  at the time, time changes some ship. Yeah he made it,
• 30:34
  and now you know, the match itself was a good match. Yeah,
• 30:40
  Yeah, it was a really good match, and it damn should they came
• 30:44
  out the gates swinging in this match, because I don't think any of us
• 30:47
  thought we were gonna get a near fall at the very beginning of the match,
• 30:49
  with Drew hitting at clay More on him and ship like that called everybody
• 30:53
  in the stadium by surprise, and from that point the energy just stayed up
• 30:57
  for the whole match. Yeah. Uh, give me like WrestleMania twenty eight
• 31:03
  vibes, you know, motorcycle. Damn motorcycle. Give me wrestling twenty vibes
• 31:10
  of Seamus beating Daniel Brian in eight seconds for the world title, and uh,
• 31:15
  maybe that was a little nod to the world title match. Didn't lose
• 31:19
  a match in ten seconds? Was that Becky Lynch when she lost the Backdown
• 31:26
  title? Yeah? Yeah, But you know, I don't know all all
• 31:33
  those people who have lost the titles like that very quickly, They didn't take
• 31:37
  a massive hits of their career doing that. Definitely not. I guess that's
• 31:41
  the only kind of people you can do that with. Kingston. Yeah,
• 31:45
  oh dude, I had to feel good. I was trying to turn this
• 31:51
  around, trying to turn this into a positive. Then he is. You
• 31:56
  had to throw in the kofe go. It's true, God damn it.
• 32:02
  Okay, maybe not everybody, but uh yeah, I'm so fucking glad that
• 32:08
  didn't happen because I would have been pretty upset. Well, I was a
• 32:14
  fan who paid money to cease that's Robins and Drew Wrestle for it to be
• 32:17
  over in eight fucking seconds or you know whatever. What was it? Yeah,
• 32:21
  it was immediately he claimored him so and I think he got unless he
• 32:27
  might have been mad unless Drew came I mean, Damien came out right after
• 32:30
  that, and then we got a full on oh yeah. But I like
• 32:36
  it though, because it was like, uh, Drew was, you know,
• 32:40
  like he's pissed, like he's here strictly for business. He's not here
• 32:44
  for the the fancy outfits and the goofy music and no, he's here for
• 32:50
  fucking business. He's here to get his damn title, his title win at
• 32:53
  Wrestle Media in front of a damn crowd. So I I like how aggressive
• 32:59
  he wasn't right to it, man, And we we also got that with
• 33:02
  you know, like the usos, you know, and and stuff. It's
• 33:06
  just going to say that that's the same way. Unfortunately the rest of the
• 33:09
  match. That's great. It's and then, uh, you know, well
• 33:16
  Drew being classes, you're grabbing the cell phone, texting, tweeting while he's
• 33:21
  there like board at work, like during the mat. I had no idea
• 33:24
  what he was doing in real time. Yeah, again found out after the
• 33:28
  fact. Yeah, he picked up on it. Somebody knows that he was
• 33:31
  tweeting in real time because I remember being up there and I was like,
• 33:35
  Yo, somebody hop on Twitter, see what the hell you just tweeted?
• 33:39
  That's very smart. I didn't even think about that. We've said I've said
• 33:44
  it before, but like he's really doing great with the social He's used to
• 33:51
  social media mania, social media, social media, you know, and the
• 33:57
  company has tried to kind to do this fora into social media and uh you
• 34:04
  know, sometimes sanctioned, sometimes unsanctioned, with varying levels of success, you
• 34:08
  know, but I think by far Drew has done it the best of anybody.
• 34:14
  Yeah, exactly. Perfect. Tweeting mid match was perfect, you know,
• 34:16
  like that just encapsulates the troll job he's kind of been doing. Yeah,
• 34:25
  I mean it was really well done. Yeah, agree, because it's
• 34:30
  it's it's him doing it. It's not something that's being forced or trying to
• 34:35
  be like, hey, look at us, we're cool. It's like,
• 34:37
  no, it's him. It's who he naturally is. Probably, so that's
• 34:40
  why it works so well, and it's fitting with you know, how he's
• 34:45
  been acting, how he's been conducting himself once he finally found his groove in
• 34:50
  his heel turn and you know, stop being just the the whiny person complaining
• 34:53
  because I didn't get this that in thirty is like, okay, I'm just
• 34:58
  gonna fully lean into the troll I really am and show y'all who I am.
• 35:01
  And it worked out great for him, you know. Nevertheless, he
• 35:05
  still just couldn't quite take his attention off of Cem Punk, and as we
• 35:09
  saw, it wound up costing him in the end because after he finally won
• 35:15
  and had his moment and everybody was happy for him and cheering for him and
• 35:19
  like good for you, good for you, he had to go and pop
• 35:22
  ship the damn see him Punk. Well he did that. He kept saying,
• 35:29
  wasn't paying enough attention to him? Yeah, he didn't pay enough attention
• 35:34
  or he spent too much time paying attention to see him Punk. And he
• 35:37
  did that weird crawl across the table, and I was like, dude,
• 35:43
  that's not that's not cool. That's kind of creepy. Sure man stood up
• 35:49
  and hit As soon as he hitself with the sucket, I was like,
• 35:52
  sweep the leg. Yeah, sweep the leg. That's exactly what he did.
• 35:58
  Then. Yeah, and then he took the the arm brace off,
• 36:00
  so you know, I like it. They kept it like him very physical
• 36:07
  of using his arm for anything, like you know, like you said,
• 36:09
  he like grabbed his leg and then he just kicked him a couple of times
• 36:14
  on the ground. And then I'll let you say music. Oh my god,
• 36:20
  dude, we fucking pop for that ship. Oh my god, that
• 36:24
  was great when she announced that, Yeah, he was cashing in. Like
• 36:30
  part of the thing that makes her so great is that. And she said
• 36:34
  this in interviews that she like doesn't want to know what's gonna happen or whatever.
• 36:37
  She's like, she's oftentimes just as surprised as we are, because I
• 36:44
  guess apparently she didn't even like have she wasn't even holding her microphone when music
• 36:49
  went off. She's like, oh fuck, oh yeah, her reacting,
• 36:54
  just reacting the stuff when it happens and just those moments go viral, and
• 36:59
  I yeah, a ring announcer ever having I mean granted things things going viral
• 37:06
  wasn't the thing when Fink was doing it, I guess, but I can't
• 37:09
  recall ever this many clips of the ring announcer just saying the thing that we've
• 37:15
  already heard her say. No, the most viral, the most viral thing
• 37:21
  that there is probably about the think is no. Yeah, everybody if seth
• 37:29
  if if you don't want to say Set's the m v P. Samantha Urban
• 37:31
  was the m v P. Absolutely from where we were sitting, from what
• 37:37
  it looked like at least, what what me and Andrew thought that he like,
• 37:43
  I thought he like dropped or like, uh, I know, the
• 37:47
  briefcase like flew up in the air. I thought he lost it. Yeah,
• 37:52
  I thought that. Yeah, I didn't see that he actually hit him
• 37:55
  with it and knocked him out. I was like, okay, makes more
• 38:00
  sense, because you can't, I mean, come on of it though,
• 38:02
  I think yeah. I was like, you can't. You can't lose your
• 38:07
  world title just from tripping and falling on a table. I mean, come
• 38:12
  on, man, I mean you need to take a briefcase of the fucking
• 38:14
  head, right, So they did that. But he took a hell of
• 38:16
  a beating in this match in general. I mean he got curb stomped,
• 38:20
  he got pedigreed, I mean, Seth Rollins got a hell of a run
• 38:24
  for his money. So he's got a pretty good ass being before, you
• 38:29
  know, before Punk got after him and then Priest finished him off. So
• 38:35
  I mean, damn, Like, the smile on Seampunk's face was the smile
• 38:38
  I think everybody in the arena had was kind of like, holy shit,
• 38:42
  dude, like you had it. You were so fucking cocky, you had
• 38:45
  your you had literally your fifteen seconds of fame, and you lost it all.
• 38:52
  And that's that's what's crazy about that. All he had to do is
• 38:53
  just walk away. All he had to do is just go up the ramp.
• 38:59
  All he had to do. Yeah, And that's crazy about the money
• 39:02
  in the bank briefcase. It's always in that that back pocket. You always
• 39:07
  forget about it. Sometimes in the heat of the you know, in the
• 39:09
  moment, you forget about it because oh my god, Drew won the world
• 39:13
  title. We're all like in the moment and like, holy shit, we
• 39:16
  totally forgot about the briefcase, and you know a lot of us were kind
• 39:22
  of speculating like, oh, maybe he he'll go for like the intercontinental title,
• 39:25
  Like I thought it would have been like a superhel move to cash in
• 39:29
  on Sammy's ain after his win something like that. But no, we were
• 39:34
  wrong. We were dead wrong. They were like, yeah, we think
• 39:37
  Damian Priest is ready for a world title run. Okay, yeah, yeah,
• 39:44
  he had the briefcase for two hundred and eighty one days, which is
• 39:46
  now the longest anyone's had it by one day. Yeah, one day,
• 39:51
  ed, Yes, Edge Edge the first the first money in the bank winner.
• 39:58
  There's been a couple like two sixty to seventy ish. Generally it's either
• 40:04
  they tend to either cash it in that night or the next night or pretty
• 40:08
  pretty quick. But then it's either they have it for two hundred something days
• 40:13
  or three days. Yeah, I'll tell you what. Those women they can
• 40:15
  never hold on to those briefcases, am I right? Fellows? They always
• 40:19
  guy, I got rid of the exchanger for something else. Usually it is
• 40:22
  the women that's in the cash in fairly quick. Yeah, they cash in
• 40:27
  same night or like one or two pay per views later. Because they're fucking
• 40:31
  ear and they don't let it cook. It cook. So Priest becomes the
• 40:37
  first wrestler of Puerto Rican descent in over fifty years to hold the world championship,
• 40:43
  Pedro Morales being the other one one in nineteen seventy one, only the
• 40:47
  second time it's cashed in at WrestleMania. I'm still not sure I'm buying Damian
• 40:54
  Priest as a world champion. I think somebody already said I think Drew probably
• 41:00
  makes it back cloaks and castles there in Scotland. That makes yeah, yeah,
• 41:08
  And to Waynes had, I wouldn't mind saying this belt bounce around a
• 41:13
  little bit now, especially in light of the fact that we just had these
• 41:16
  giant, gargantuan title reigns, you know, with Roman and Seth had it
• 41:22
  for a long time, even throw Gun through in there. We haven't just
• 41:25
  haven't seen a lot of title changes exactly, at least, like what bouncing
• 41:30
  around are you looking for? Are we talking two thousand and two level of
• 41:32
  bouncing around? No, I don't mean like no, I'm not saying we
• 41:38
  need twelve champions twelve title changes for the rest of the year. I think
• 41:44
  that I think that year holds the record for most world title changes. Honestly,
• 41:47
  I bet with like three this year. Yeah three three? Good Like
• 41:53
  I did WrestleMania thirteen with Carlos's thing, and at that time that championship it
• 42:00
  was, they were already only their fourth champion of the year. Yeah,
• 42:06
  whatever year that was, I think it was ninety six or something. Mmhmm.
• 42:10
  I mean, well, I mean, I I'm glad that Damian Price
• 42:16
  got the title. I'm happy for him as champion. I would like him
• 42:21
  to have a decent run, you know, or if they or if it's
• 42:24
  gonna be cut short, if it's gonna be one of those things where he
• 42:28
  drops it it at Clashing the Castle, then I would like to see him
• 42:32
  win it back this Yeah, I agree, because I don't. I don't
• 42:37
  want him to be one of those ones where he had a moment short run,
• 42:42
  loses it and then is perpetually in the title picture but never champion again,
• 42:49
  like how they're doing fucking Bobby last year. Right now, I feel
• 42:54
  like they can heap lastly up real easily. They can. But since his
• 43:00
  his run, what has he been since then? Constantly in the picture but
• 43:07
  not the champion? And I don't want to. I don't. I don't
• 43:10
  want to see that happen because then it just to me when they do that,
• 43:15
  it makes their title run seem a little less significant. It just feels
• 43:22
  more like a moment than then. I don't know, I don't know how
• 43:29
  exactly the worry it, but like if we see Lastly challenging for the world
• 43:36
  title, most people are more likely to think he's not going to win then
• 43:40
  think he's actually going to win, because more often than not we see him
• 43:45
  again in the picture but not being successful, and it almost has that boy
• 43:52
  who cries wolf effect after a certain amount of times where it's like, Okay,
• 43:55
  yeah, we get it, he used to be a champion, y'all
• 43:59
  just putting them in there for the name, but he don't really stand a
• 44:01
  chance. Well you're here, it's a new era. Yeah right, I
• 44:09
  believe you want to see it speaking again in a new era. But missus
• 44:16
  Stephanie McMahon the best, Oh yeah, it's not really back. She was
• 44:24
  just there. Yeah. I don't like her new theme music. It's like
• 44:28
  it's the same lyrics but different tone. And I didn't even notice, yeah,
• 44:36
  because I liked her to pay attention to know where there was. I
• 44:38
  was like, okay, stuff cool. I paid attention, but uh yeah,
• 44:47
  it just came out and welcomed us and thanked us and issued in the
• 44:53
  new era, and it was I mean, we haven't seen her in like
• 44:59
  over. Yeah, yeah, it is nice. It is nice. And
• 45:05
  I was kind of like almost losing my voice near at this point. But
• 45:09
  you know, if you're closer have had a lot of people will be yelling
• 45:13
  some things to her. How's your father? You know, same shit,
• 45:16
  different day. Hey, you know what I kind of thought was funny.
• 45:22
  So how we discussed how Drew tried to take seth Rollins out in the first
• 45:29
  few seconds in the match, very similar to how Daniel Brian lost his title
• 45:32
  in eight seconds to sham is Well. On Wikipedia here it shows Damian Priest
• 45:38
  defeated Drew McIntyre in nine seconds at WrestleMania. So he held his title one
• 45:45
  second longer than Daniel Brian at WrestleMania before he lost it. Yeah. Yeah,
• 45:55
  just breaking records, right, breaking records by one day one second.
• 46:00
  Ah, let's go into this next match. For the record, I was
• 46:07
  going to the bathroom and getting Little Caesar's pizza mm hmm, and missed out
• 46:15
  on a pretty damn good match, albeit short, but a damn good match
• 46:21
  which featured the prop Oh god, they actually listened to the Pride on Wikipedia.
• 46:27
  I still don't think that's officially. I think I haven't heard on TV.
• 46:30
  I didn't get a good enough look at their hoodies to see if they
• 46:35
  actually said the Pride on the hoodies or not. I think they may have.
• 46:38
  They seemed like some sort of you know, group hoodie, but I
• 46:43
  didn't get into good enough lookout at it. And yeah, they definitely haven't
• 46:46
  officially acknowledged it on TV, and I don't know if I want them to,
• 46:50
  because I still think the Pride is a shitty name. I still think
• 46:53
  it sucks. But Lashley Dawkins and Mantes for with beefabing on the Final Testament
• 47:01
  of carrying cross off of of Pain and Scarlet with Paul ellery, not Scarlett
• 47:08
  but with Scarlet and Paul ellery, and a Philly street fight with Snoop Dogg
• 47:15
  on commentary, and Bubba Ray Dudley is a special guest referee. Nice surprise
• 47:20
  seeing Bubba Ray come out there after we had just watched him Friday at a
• 47:23
  tribute to Extreme Well, did you see. Somebody asked Devon why he wasn't
• 47:29
  there, and he said, he said, it took it been wrestling fifty
• 47:32
  by the time he got down to the ring. Yeah, he said he
• 47:36
  was so sore from the and I mean he didn't do anything in that match
• 47:40
  we saw him do Friday night. Oh no, I don't I didn't even
• 47:44
  know him take a bump. Yeah, what was I say? Was he
• 47:46
  pretty sore from a match or what was the story? Yeah, yeah,
• 47:52
  he said he was. He said he barely ever wrestled, so when he
• 47:53
  does, it puts him. It puts a mat of commission for a couple
• 47:57
  of weeks. And he was like, but he said, it would have
• 47:59
  taken so long to get down in the ring and then back out of the
• 48:01
  ring. It would have been wrestlingia fifty before he was out of there.
• 48:07
  Yeah. I think it was probably just kind of a joke, but have
• 48:10
  a joke, but not not all that inaccurate, because yeah, right,
• 48:13
  it would have been nice to see both of them. I don't know how
• 48:15
  you would. I don't know how you have two referees, but it would
• 48:19
  have been nice to see him. Yeah, maybe him as a special timekeeper.
• 48:22
  But again, yeah, get based on how he was walking just a
• 48:25
  tribute to extreme which was barely Yeah, it was probably for the best that
• 48:30
  he just did you notice did you notice during Bubba rays Enterns he almost fucking
• 48:37
  ate ship climbing up the turnbuckle. Yep, totally missed that bottom rope.
• 48:45
  Yeah. I was real happy to hear Snoop when I rewatched this because I
• 48:50
  remember being there and be like, fuck, I just want to hear what
• 48:52
  Snoop was saying that National treasure. Yeah, dude, I loved him on
• 48:59
  the mic. It was fucking dying. He was great. Yeah, watch
• 49:05
  your back yeah, uh, carry and cross his entrance, and that's about
• 49:10
  all he has going for him. He's done no favors by having it happened
• 49:15
  while the sun is still out right, just the lightest of grays on everything.
• 49:22
  That was kind of unfortunate for him because that's all. That's, like
• 49:27
  I said, that's the best part of his whole uh, his whole act
• 49:29
  as his entrance. Definitely. Definitely why was Dawkins wearing his jacket like a
• 49:35
  cape? Somebody said why? I thought it was some it had something.
• 49:45
  It was some sort of cosplay type thing that he was acknowledging. I can't
• 49:47
  remember what the hell it was, though, I was something I was thinking
• 49:53
  of an episode. There was an episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia when
• 49:57
  they're trying now for the Philadelphia Eagles at the Lincoln Financial Field and they're all
• 50:00
  wearing capes and they're running around. They're like, why are they wearing capes?
• 50:04
  Well, it helps you condition better, it helps you run faster,
• 50:08
  That's what I thought of, but I'm pretty sure that's not it. But
• 50:14
  anyway, No, this this match was fun enough. But yeah, we
• 50:20
  would have benefited greatly by me giving a shit about it, and I just
• 50:23
  didn't. Yeah, I thought it was a really good match. I mean
• 50:28
  they pretty much just got straight to it. It was straight action all the
• 50:32
  way through. I mean, hell, put Scarlet through a table. Yeah,
• 50:37
  she was knocked out for the rest of the mess. The pop screen
• 50:39
  finally starts working. Yep, you definitely audibly heard that pop when when that
• 50:45
  screen came back up, And arguably one of the loudest moments of the night
• 50:51
  was fucking after they did the whole nutshot went well. One big pop was
• 50:58
  when Carrying Across got in Bubba Ray's face and bubber Ray pulled out the glasses.
• 51:01
  Yeah moment, then they did the whole bus up and then fucking bubble
• 51:08
  Rays slaps Bobby Lashley, Lashley slap slaps my test Ted slaps Dawkins and on
• 51:15
  three and I was watching the replay. Also, I knew how loud we
• 51:21
  were at the stadium, but I was surprised that just how loud everybody was
• 51:23
  on the replay. Yeah, I said, arguably one of the loudest moments
• 51:28
  of the night, everybody shouting get the tables. I really hate it.
• 51:31
  I don't know where when this happened, but at some point Devon added that
• 51:36
  one, two, three, and I hate that. Just just do it.
• 51:40
  We know what you're gonna say. You don't need to queue, it's
• 51:44
  the countdown. Well, I say the same thing about Dramati during the Clean
• 51:49
  War. I'm like, dude, no wonder why people can reperse it because
• 51:51
  they can hear you count now. That one is stupid. That makes sense
• 51:54
  because you're telling the person you're about to do the big what's coming. I
• 52:00
  was especially stupid. Oh my god, Yeah, he was tuning up the
• 52:07
  band. Could you imagine if he didn't or could you just think of any
• 52:10
  wrestler, think of like the Undertaker counting before he would like give you a
• 52:15
  tombstone, like he would have you up in the tombstone. But then he
• 52:19
  would like, let's not count the five and then like, if this man
• 52:22
  counts down and still hits you with that move, you deserve to lose.
• 52:27
  Or if you count down like an odd number, let's count down from eight.
• 52:30
  What Okay, did have one of the best maybe moves if you will,
• 52:39
  of the whole show, crazy leap he did over the turnbuckle or whatever.
• 52:45
  Dude, Yeah, I thought he knocked out the one event guy.
• 52:52
  You will replay on until after the match. It's like, what the They
• 52:54
  barely caught it on camera at all? Right, and then and that I
• 53:00
  could actually I haven't written down right after that is when the screen came back
• 53:05
  on, so we couldn't even really Oh yes, fly out of the air,
• 53:08
  and I was like, what the fuck? I remember not even being
• 53:12
  really sure what even it happened. It was weird that they had guest commentator
• 53:17
  two matches in a row. Anyone else find that odd? Well, this
• 53:22
  one was brought to you by Gin and Juice. That's probably why exactly that
• 53:28
  was them dollars talking. It was brought to you by you and Snoop Dogg.
• 53:32
  But it was just weird that there are only two matches with guest commentators
• 53:36
  and they just did them back to back. Just kind of seemed weird.
• 53:40
  Well, sponsorship, sponsorship money out of the the the ladies took a fucking
• 53:50
  nasty table bump there. Yeah yeah, Scarlet ye, and then I totally
• 53:55
  forgot about the the table they put on it the finish just yeah, dude,
• 54:04
  but they put him in a yeah. Then Montest did a five star
• 54:07
  Frocks splash. Oh yeah, yeah, the first one. What they initially
• 54:13
  said, get the tables and they got it, and that bit just crumbled,
• 54:15
  Yeah, as soon as they put them on it. Yeah, and
• 54:19
  you know what, still I'm still getting food, by the way, this
• 54:23
  whole time, because like I left soon as as Damian Priest and Drew McIntyre
• 54:30
  was done, Like I left, and I was like, okay, fucking
• 54:32
  pizza. I know I'm gonna be in line forever, and I was.
• 54:37
  But I have to say what I did enjoy standing in line was just people
• 54:43
  watching fans, just looking at all the people who were like cosplaying as certain
• 54:47
  wrestlers you know the like I think we talked before all those fucking women who
• 54:52
  were dressed up as Ray Ripley were fucking freezing their asses off the night before.
• 54:55
  But uh, it was cool seeing bunch of people dressed up as wrestlers.
• 55:02
  Everybody and their mother has a fucking title belt. Nowadays, it seems
• 55:06
  like nobody has the balls to have a twenty four to seven title. I
• 55:10
  don't know if it's they're embarrassed to buy it or they're afraid of getting pinned
• 55:14
  at any fucking given second. Might be embarrassed to sell it, dude,
• 55:20
  I think so, because I didn't see any for sale and not. I
• 55:23
  don't think I see one person fucking be like Obby, Bobby, I went
• 55:28
  to twenty four to seven title, No, you have one at home already?
• 55:34
  Uh yeah, I got back right as this next match here was starting
• 55:38
  LA Night versus A J Styles Take it Away, dre yep. This was
• 55:45
  the third match of the well, third or fourth depending on which accounting La
• 55:51
  Knight and AJ Styles and just a regular old one on one match, because
• 55:53
  you're gonna get one of these in every wrestle media match that they ain't got,
• 55:58
  no gimmick ain't got no stakes, ain't got no titles, no nothing.
• 56:01
  It's just motherfuck, I don't like you and you don't like me.
• 56:05
  Square up. And they usually do it with two wrestlers who can go pretty
• 56:12
  well in the ring with each other. And that's what this match was.
• 56:15
  Two guys who can really go in the ring and just let him have at
• 56:20
  it. It was a good match. It was a very you know,
• 56:23
  it wouldn't necessarily knock your socks off match, but good match. L A.
• 56:28
  Knight got the win with the with the bf T and you know,
• 56:31
  got his WrestleMania moment, got his uh, got his win. Neither one
• 56:37
  of these guys had a WrestleMania type interest. They just came out. They
• 56:43
  had yeah yeah, yeah, ah AJ got a little bit of pyro with
• 56:46
  that. He got it in L A. Knight didn't. I mean,
• 56:51
  I don't think anybody thought was going over. Yeah. Well maybe that's why
• 56:55
  he got the pirate. He also he got music and I don't like it.
• 57:00
  Oh yeah, it sucks. It sucks. It's like similar lyrics again,
• 57:05
  similar lyrics. It's I just don't get it, like what they're doing,
• 57:09
  Like why can't you just leave well enough alone? Like there was a
• 57:13
  point when Triple H's music became like, Okay, this is the one.
• 57:17
  It's the point when there was a point when Undertaker's music came that way.
• 57:24
  I mean there's a reason that that HBK is still using sexy boy you know
• 57:29
  liked Yeah, it's like Hackney. I mean, look at he's have you
• 57:36
  seen him lately? He is not exactly sexy man. Old man, I've
• 57:44
  got a ball spot when you got an iconic song, fucking don't they fucking
• 57:53
  did? Aj Styles has been in ww for years, almost more, I
• 57:59
  think now more than he was in his TNA run. So I think this
• 58:05
  is his longest ten yured wrestling company now. But that's what he had when
• 58:12
  we loved it. Don't fucking mess with it, yep. And that goes
• 58:20
  for a number of wrestlers. If you have a theme that works, you
• 58:23
  don't need to change it. You don't need to change it because they're turning
• 58:28
  baby face or they're turning heel or this, that and the third. If
• 58:30
  it's a good enough theme, it will work either way. Yeah, I
• 58:34
  mean, you can tweak it a little rockets tweaked t hiss, a little
• 58:37
  stone cold tweet tis a little undertake a tweet tis a little but you want
• 58:43
  to stay with the basic premise. Yeah, but and most of their tweets
• 58:46
  kind of were more associated with just a changing of the time into music and
• 58:52
  to adapt more to you know, whatever the current trend was with music.
• 58:58
  Sure it's breaking, you still got the gong, you still got if you
• 59:02
  smell you know right right notes maybe exactly exactly. Loads of maintains that same
• 59:10
  core of what works. You don't need to touch it. We've had very
• 59:16
  few themes that are so iconic that they're just completely untouchable, and most of
• 59:22
  those are probably the old ass themes like real American, you don't we don't
• 59:27
  need a twenty twenty four remix, sexy boy doesn't need a rap verse on
• 59:32
  top of it, like you don't know ship like that something we didn't talk
• 59:40
  about how this this match responsored. Well. First of all, Ellie Knight
• 59:45
  shows up in a GTR wrapped in slim gym shit. Uh yeah, lady,
• 59:52
  dude, he gets it. Oh my god, he gets it away
• 59:54
  to this old lady who's like, I don't even know what this is my
• 59:59
  life. This was taken away years ago. Yeah, and I was like,
• 1:00:04
  oh my god Like. I was like, well, you could probably
• 1:00:07
  take off like the the the decal, the vinyl decals. We still got
• 1:00:12
  that red and yellow fucking interior. Fucking Ronald McDonald and tear. Holy ship
• 1:00:19
  just couldn't care, dude. Yeah, dude, I never seen anybody.
• 1:00:23
  I never seen anybody receive a GTR and have that kind of fucking face on
• 1:00:30
  the trey. You're a car guy. If somebody give you a fucking GTR,
• 1:00:35
  I don't care what it's wrapped in your face. Ain't gonna be looking
• 1:00:37
  like that. My friend na be looking like what the like? Oh ship,
• 1:00:43
  God, dude, the camera, the cameras off me that I'll start
• 1:00:49
  thinking about it like taxies, gas and shirt's got damn Yeah, I would
• 1:00:53
  sell it, but it would be hell right homes, yeah right, And
• 1:00:58
  after you finish off the fucking trunkload of fucking slim gyms, they probably I'd
• 1:01:02
  be like, load the chunk up with slim gyms. Oh my god.
• 1:01:07
  Yeah, And then I'm doing a little rewatch here if you they'd like to
• 1:01:13
  pan across the front row right of all these people dressed up in slim gym
• 1:01:17
  shirts, eating slim gyms, holding slim Gym signs. At one hour,
• 1:01:25
  six minutes twenty two seconds, there's a gentleman in a tan jacket in the
• 1:01:30
  front row eating the slim Gym very differently than everybody else in the entire fucking
• 1:01:39
  arena. I could only call it. The phrase could be called air dicking.
• 1:01:46
  Uh. I cannot believe they got it on camera, And they like
• 1:01:52
  panned really close to him, and he's like, one dude, he's deep
• 1:01:59
  throwing the shit that slim gym and I'm fucking dying because they pan left to
• 1:02:04
  right, so they panned back to him and he's still doing it and he's
• 1:02:07
  leaning over the fucking railing and ship. So I mean, I swear to
• 1:02:13
  like one hour six minutes. Well, basically, I don't have to tell
• 1:02:15
  you when. Just go back to the opening right as La Night gets in
• 1:02:20
  the ring. Then they pants to the slim Gym crowd and this guy's fucking
• 1:02:23
  air watching. It's a fucking new air Oh my god. Yeah, the
• 1:02:36
  PG ship is just like what the fuck? Highlighted the match for me for
• 1:02:47
  sure, before the bell even rang, I knew this was gonna be a
• 1:02:52
  fucking slobbery knocker, you know, just as soon as I saw that slim
• 1:02:54
  gym moment. Hey their credit, this is another one when they went right
• 1:02:59
  after each Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what though I
• 1:03:02
  thought I thought of Doyle maybe I was like, maybe if they're doing this
• 1:03:07
  because we got these long fucking Rock and Roman reigns entrances and Cody Roads entrances
• 1:03:12
  throughout the night, yeah, and staredowns and whatever like for those guys,
• 1:03:17
  I mean, yeah, you knew they were gonna eat up all the fucking
• 1:03:20
  time on the clock. So I guess these guys kind of knew that,
• 1:03:23
  like, hey, like we don't have a lot of time. Like granted,
• 1:03:28
  this match was like twelve minutes. A bunch of other ones we're like
• 1:03:34
  seventeen fourteen, but yeah, and the majority of ones eight Yeah, the
• 1:03:39
  Pride was like eight minutes. Yeah, so it really is so but yeah,
• 1:03:46
  I mean, I'm kind of happy with the outcome of this match now
• 1:03:52
  that you know, La Knight gets the upper hand. But you know,
• 1:03:55
  fast forward, they're looking for a number one contender for the world title this
• 1:04:00
  week, and they did two triple threat matches and guess what, we're right
• 1:04:03
  back to WrestleMania rematch. So I'm assuming maybe a yeah, is gonna win
• 1:04:11
  this one, so and then I don't know, then they're gonna have to
• 1:04:15
  split the difference in some other match that La Night will probably end up winning
• 1:04:20
  to finally go over on AJ. Fun fun fact about AJ and Cody if
• 1:04:26
  it is them, which I can only assume it will be, they have
• 1:04:30
  never faced off against each other in any kind of match. Well, they
• 1:04:36
  were both in the twenty sixteen Royal Rumble for a few minutes at the same
• 1:04:42
  time, but other than that, I'll say they've hardly ever been in the
• 1:04:45
  same company at the same time, have they. No? Oh, yeah,
• 1:04:47
  they were both in the Bullet Club and they've always been aligned with each
• 1:04:51
  other. Is that the Yeah? Okay, so yeah, did face Dust
• 1:05:00
  in two thousand and three, I believe, Yeah, they were both in
• 1:05:04
  Japan at the same time. They were in TNA. I want to say,
• 1:05:08
  at the same time. Okay, I can already hear it. That
• 1:05:12
  was a I whooped your daddy's ass and now I'm gonna whoop your ass.
• 1:05:18
  Go back and find out what the outcome. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 1:05:23
  you should find out the outcome while we uh, I know, should we
• 1:05:26
  get into the next match. The next match, which was for the Triple
• 1:05:30
  Threat match for the United States Championship, Logan Paul defending against Kevin Owens and
• 1:05:36
  Randy Orton, which saw Logan Paul retain again. This match seventeen minutes and
• 1:05:45
  some change. Good match, fun match, you know. It was nice
• 1:05:49
  seeing Kevin Owens come down on the golf cart and then Randy Orton music hit
• 1:05:54
  and then he backs up, goes and picks up Randy Orton and they both
• 1:05:58
  go down to the ring, and obviously they spend the most of the start
• 1:06:02
  of the mess just beating the snot out of Logan Paul left and right until
• 1:06:08
  they both decide to try to pin Logan Paul at the same time, and
• 1:06:13
  then they like okay, okay, not yet, and then Randy does what
• 1:06:16
  Randy always does and tries to slip in a fucking ArKade on Kevin Owens.
• 1:06:21
  I got a good laugh out of that look on his face afterwards, where
• 1:06:25
  he's like, come on, yeah, okay, well I guess we got
• 1:06:32
  a fight now, and then from there it's just on between everybody. I
• 1:06:39
  totally missed part of Logan Paul's entrance get cut off on you guys replay.
• 1:06:45
  It seemed like he was just suddenly on the screen, and I think they
• 1:06:48
  did make a bit of a cut much it was much longer in person.
• 1:06:55
  I feel like I totally miss the him coming out in too on the truck
• 1:07:01
  even I don't know what the hell was doing, Like, well, I
• 1:07:04
  think I don't remember watching this match at all, and I think it's because
• 1:07:08
  because after that truck thing, I just watched the truck for the rest of
• 1:07:11
  the match because they were they couldn't figure out what to do with it.
• 1:07:14
  Oh yeah, they were. They were doing like a seven hundred point turn
• 1:07:19
  like. They eventually ended up just covering it up and dealing with it later.
• 1:07:24
  Yeah, so they should have done right trying to figure out what to
• 1:07:28
  do with the truck instead of watching the match. Yeah. You know what,
• 1:07:30
  though, I think we saw somebody posted on was it maybe our discord?
• 1:07:38
  I think it was that the Prime truck was in Philly. It was
• 1:07:41
  at the gas station or somethinghere it was getting towed or something like that,
• 1:07:45
  or maybe I saw on Twitter or something. But I was like, shit,
• 1:07:49
  I guess that's playing a factor in his entrance and behold it did I
• 1:07:57
  wonder? I wonder where Randy Orton buys pants? Or does he like,
• 1:08:01
  is he an exclusively sweatpant guy because his fucking thighs are enormous? Now,
• 1:08:08
  oh yes, fuck dies, where the is he buying pants that could fit
• 1:08:12
  over his giant athletic Randy Orton stives are what rock styes used to be.
• 1:08:18
  Yeah, dude. The fact that he like almost scared the shot out of
• 1:08:23
  We're in like driving him all the way down to the ramp. That was
• 1:08:27
  fucking funny. I'm watching that part right now and just him like driving him
• 1:08:31
  down that ramp, Orton getting nervous holding on to that rail. Yeah,
• 1:08:38
  yeah, full spin and goddamn golf cart. Dude, this match one exactly
• 1:08:43
  the way I thought it was gonna go. It's like, immediately, like,
• 1:08:45
  dude, they both hate Logan Pop immediately go for Logan right, and
• 1:08:49
  we love that, you know, and uh, what what a win for
• 1:08:55
  for Logan right WrestleMania beating Kevin Owens and radio or in Like, that's a
• 1:09:00
  huge fucking one for this guy. And and you know, not many people
• 1:09:04
  retained their titles. I think he's the only champion from the last era,
• 1:09:11
  I guess, I mean, yeah, yeah, they were the only ones
• 1:09:17
  to retain their titles. They actually yeah, oh yeah, Loganpol had all
• 1:09:25
  the Philly colors though I did. I did like that. I thought that
• 1:09:28
  was pretty cool. And uh and then Ko had the uh the E C
• 1:09:32
  W colors it looked like in the font for his gear. Yeah, dude,
• 1:09:38
  I like that. That was that was cool. And they uh the
• 1:09:44
  the what was that the hydro station. It's just like this card full of
• 1:09:48
  just all these Prime fucking bottle that was just there the whole night. Yeah
• 1:09:55
  damn. They got knocked over every match and then somebody had to go over
• 1:09:58
  there and set it back up for the match. Honestly, though, like
• 1:10:01
  you know, side not, I've never tried Prime, and honestly, I've
• 1:10:04
  never had an interest never. I'm just like it just it just doesn't Yeah,
• 1:10:11
  it's just they sell it at Ali's now. So, I mean,
• 1:10:15
  if anybody who knows what Oli's is, if you're if your food drink,
• 1:10:21
  yeah, if it's at Ali's, it's not top tier. I mean,
• 1:10:26
  always sells good stuff, but I wouldn't totally rely on all my grocery shopping
• 1:10:30
  at Ali's. So, but we saw this, who's the dude to get
• 1:10:36
  what's his name? I show speed? Why do we need to have exactly
• 1:10:43
  That's exactly why I said, who the fuck is this an American? I
• 1:10:47
  have to look up on Wikipedia. He's an American YouTuber and rapper, uh
• 1:10:51
  you know the only uh he plays Fortnite. Yes, he's internet favorite like
• 1:10:59
  like in it. He's a social media person. But the guy did take
• 1:11:03
  some bumps though, so I I give props to any you know, person
• 1:11:09
  who's not a professional wrestler who's willing to take any kind of fucking bumps like
• 1:11:13
  that. But I heard, uh he got some ship for his language,
• 1:11:18
  even though I just fucking said it. Oh, there I go. But
• 1:11:21
  yeah, I heard he said he said, did he say ship? He
• 1:11:25
  said? Yeah, he said that. He said fuck a couple of times.
• 1:11:29
  I know, I'm just about to say it. I didn't pay enough
• 1:11:34
  attention to him to hear what he said. Yeah, I saw him getting
• 1:11:41
  Randy Orton's face and Randy Spartan kicked his ass. Yeah, and we saw
• 1:11:45
  the Shenanigans, the normal Shenanigans of like, oh, the brass knuckles.
• 1:11:49
  But Randy Orton was nice and gave into the rough. You know, I
• 1:11:55
  thought, uh, heal, Randy Orton would make a great uh Cody Rhoades
• 1:12:00
  own it, but a I'm not sure if the crowd would boo Randy at
• 1:12:03
  this point. He might be one of those guys that like is And if
• 1:12:09
  he's handing the knocks back to that's not Randy Orton. Randy Orton doesn't hand
• 1:12:13
  and knuckles back to the referee. He uses it so like they must not
• 1:12:17
  be gonna he must be a babyface for the interim. But who is this
• 1:12:25
  guy? What has he done with Randy Orton? Yeah? I don't know.
• 1:12:29
  Yeah, yeah, you would think that Rien Jordan would have one more
• 1:12:31
  heel run left in him before he hangs it up. But then again,
• 1:12:36
  maybe he's just like I'll just take whatever it is and just have fun for
• 1:12:42
  whatever how many years he has left. Yeah, you know, like they
• 1:12:45
  tried to turn Bobby and they were like, no, we're not gonna boo
• 1:12:49
  him. He can beat up Raymond Terio, fine, but we're not gonna
• 1:12:54
  boo him until they had to turn him baby, And I think Randy might
• 1:12:59
  be in that boat. Yeah, we don't care if he just kicked in
• 1:13:02
  Cody Roodes his head. We're still going to cheer for Randy Orton. Yeah,
• 1:13:06
  Yeah, he might be at that point, and for as far as
• 1:13:10
  Logan Paul goes, the best compliment that I can give Logan Paul is that
• 1:13:15
  we're no longer remarking on how good he is in a match. We're just
• 1:13:18
  talking about him as a wrestler, just like everybody else. Yeah, I
• 1:13:25
  mean that's kind of good, kind of bad. I mean that I means
• 1:13:28
  he's like it means. It means his good performances don't surprise us anymore.
• 1:13:33
  Like we see him performing the ring and it's not like, oh, Wow,
• 1:13:36
  did you see him do this? I didn't think he was capable of
• 1:13:40
  that, or I didn't you know, he's impressed me with this, Like
• 1:13:43
  it's no longer impressive because we know he's gonna be consistently good in every match.
• 1:13:46
  He doesn't have to do some sort of wow spot for us in order
• 1:13:53
  to entertain us. He doesn't need that anymore to get himself over with the
• 1:13:58
  crowd. He doesn't necessarily I mean if he if he if it warrants it,
• 1:14:01
  obviously he can. But he doesn't have to do a dive from the
• 1:14:05
  turnbuckle to the table or some other crazy shit. He earned everybody else.
• 1:14:13
  Yeah, he earned our respect that he doesn't have to put his body on
• 1:14:15
  the line every fucking match. I think I think he's getting better at his
• 1:14:20
  promos. I mean he I know he said I heard him say in an
• 1:14:26
  interview, like he initially wanted to be a face. But it's like sorry,
• 1:14:30
  Bud, like a look of that, like you're gonna heal your entire
• 1:14:34
  run. I don't ever see a face Logan Paul happening like the crowds.
• 1:14:39
  Sorry, man, the crowds is not gonna put it by. But he's
• 1:14:44
  running with it. And if that's what you got, you know, he's
• 1:14:46
  making lemonade lemonade, all right? You know, uh, Logan Paul will
• 1:14:53
  not be a face in professional wrestling until he reaches the appreciation point of his
• 1:14:58
  career. Basically where you've done the heel working, We've hated you long enough
• 1:15:02
  that we actually appreciate how good you are. Where you know, the basically
• 1:15:06
  where the point where Bailey's at now, where Randy Orton is at now,
• 1:15:12
  they're in that appreciation phase. Logan Paul got a long way to go before
• 1:15:15
  he gets there, if he ever gets there, if he gets there,
• 1:15:19
  but for now, this man has a win at WrestleMania again, rand Orton
• 1:15:26
  and Ko in a match. It was way too long, way too long.
• 1:15:31
  Yeah, you know what, five minutes, that's easy. I agree.
• 1:15:36
  It was almost eighteen minutes. This could have been twelve. Yeah.
• 1:15:41
  They could have took some time off of this match and gave it to the
• 1:15:45
  either the Street Fight or gave it to Drew and Seth some somewhere. This
• 1:15:50
  match could be some minutes. I agree, it could have gone somewhere else.
• 1:15:57
  I like to think that this was the second longest match of the night.
• 1:16:01
  Yeah yeah, move on the third longest match of the night. Yeah,
• 1:16:11
  yep. To the next match, which was my most anticipated match aside
• 1:16:15
  from the main event itself. That was Bailey taking on EO Sky for the
• 1:16:23
  w W Women's Championship, which Bailey won. This was a damn good match
• 1:16:31
  if you cut out the main event, I think this was the match of
• 1:16:33
  the night in my opinion. These two really really showed out in that ring.
• 1:16:42
  They had a good, solid back and forth match plenty. They showed
• 1:16:47
  how how well they knew each other. You saw counter after counter to each
• 1:16:53
  other. I thought one of the best ones was towards the end of the
• 1:16:56
  match where Bailey went for the Rose playing and EO Sky just right out of
• 1:17:00
  it like that. Shit caught the crowd off guard. Even you saw the
• 1:17:04
  crowd visibly like whoa, because they thought she was about to eat it.
• 1:17:09
  But she had that dope ass counter to it. Again, I was.
• 1:17:14
  I was happy for the for them. Bailey had the nice Egyptian themed uh
• 1:17:17
  entrance. Yeah, Graves is like, oh there's a park part where she
• 1:17:24
  lives. No, you fucking dip ship. She was dressed as Isis,
• 1:17:27
  the god of rebirth. Do I have to do everybody's fucking explanation for everything?
• 1:17:31
  Yeah? She She said in herself in her in her WrestleMania blog that
• 1:17:35
  she's always been fascinated with Egyptian culture and stuff like that. So she did
• 1:17:40
  it cool and it worked, okay. So there. She didn't come out
• 1:17:45
  though, sitting on like a throne or nothing. You know, she came
• 1:17:49
  out carrying her and what I wouldn't Yeah, yeah, like a child.
• 1:17:54
  I don't have to get been one of those guys in the back, Yeah,
• 1:17:59
  the same. I think I was like the guy in the back.
• 1:18:01
  You know, he's that he's got that one hand on that cheek. He's
• 1:18:04
  just wide open. He's like He's like, I'm having my WrestleMania moment,
• 1:18:11
  like this guy will probably show up. This is very similar to uh with
• 1:18:15
  Triple H and the the four women dressed up at WrestleMania who ended up being
• 1:18:19
  like alexab List, Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch, and Charlotte. Right here,
• 1:18:25
  these these four guys are gonna be top stars next year. Yeah yeah,
• 1:18:30
  remember that Once I were in WrestleMania and we were carried Bailey and my
• 1:18:33
  hand was on her butt. Yeah right now, more champion I held.
• 1:18:41
  I held Bailey's left booty cheek at WrestleMania forty Why held the right booty cheek?
• 1:18:46
  That's something to put on a resume right there. Damn right, it
• 1:18:49
  would be be on my fucking Hall of Fame resume. See, that'd be
• 1:18:53
  fucking funny McDonald's. And I also carried Bailey in the WrestleMania It could have
• 1:18:59
  been me. That might have been my first and last time working with w
• 1:19:01
  W because the second I put her down, I would have raised my right
• 1:19:03
  hand up like it was a fucking world title, showing y'all her butt.
• 1:19:09
  I acknowledge, I'll promise you i'd have thrown that hand up like the rock
• 1:19:15
  just look at it. This man, that's hand vacuum shield. Yeah,
• 1:19:20
  this hand again, Like, somebody get me, somebody give me a clay
• 1:19:26
  mold or something. I need this motherfucker cast right now. I'm sorry,
• 1:19:35
  And like I left Bailey no up front too, like all right, you
• 1:19:38
  guys are carrying me. I'm like, Bailey, I would love you,
• 1:19:41
  I appreciate you, I respect you. I'm stuffing the living fun out your
• 1:19:45
  ass that you should be like, do you really need four guys? Can't
• 1:19:49
  just be me carrying you? I'm like, right, you can just hop
• 1:19:54
  on my shoulders and I'll walk backwards. Yeah. But I still thought though
• 1:19:59
  as they were to had some sort of like throne or something for his song.
• 1:20:01
  But whatever, I still enjoyed it. I know those four guys rally
• 1:20:05
  for it. Yeah, we don't need well carry It'll be funny, trust
• 1:20:13
  me, trust me, it'll be funny that they drew to see who'd be
• 1:20:17
  in the back they played rock kapers. Uh. Yeah, dude, I
• 1:20:25
  enjoyed this match too, Drey, You're sorry, right, It really showed
• 1:20:28
  that like they knew each other's moves pretty well, because it's like, you
• 1:20:33
  know, I've been traveling with you. We've been part of Damage Control,
• 1:20:36
  We've had matches together the past year. We've I mean, this this story
• 1:20:41
  has been cooking for a long time. Uh, you know, there's uh
• 1:20:47
  we thought a lot of this was gonna happen a lot sooner. And then
• 1:20:50
  I think it was a little bit before the rumble, we saw it started
• 1:20:56
  to see the cracks in the foundation of Damage Control. Actually when more members
• 1:21:00
  starting getting added and then Dakota Kai was you know, medically cleared, so
• 1:21:08
  uh, you know, makes you really wonder who was the brainchild of breaking
• 1:21:13
  this up? Was it Dakota Kai all long really the brainchild of breaking getting
• 1:21:16
  Bailey out of there. She the real superheel out of this. I'm so
• 1:21:24
  happy that she got her her win at Mania because we've seen multiple times Charlotte
• 1:21:32
  or Sasha Banks or Becky out of the horse Women, they would always get
• 1:21:38
  their WrestleMania moments. But I don't think Bailey got hers. I think she's
• 1:21:43
  WrestleMania, but she's never been in a one on one. Yeah, I
• 1:21:45
  think she won the tag the tag titles. Maybe they want her defendant,
• 1:21:50
  but yeah, I don't recall in the same But just like Drew. You
• 1:22:00
  know, Drew was our current champion, just like Bailey was during COVID times.
• 1:22:08
  So they kind of helped us get through the COVID era as our champions,
• 1:22:12
  right. And once I recall, it was like in two weeks,
• 1:22:18
  you know, we're gonna start having crowds back and stuff, right, and
• 1:22:23
  then Bailey got injured, and uh it sucked because since she was off TV
• 1:22:29
  for a while. And I felt bad because it's like, you know this,
• 1:22:31
  this woman carried that title to COVID for us, Like that's that's gotta
• 1:22:36
  be rough to adjust everything, just your wrestling, adjust your your promos,
• 1:22:43
  because now you have nobody in the arena. Nobody. I mean, this
• 1:22:46
  is before the thundered Home. I'm talking. I'm talking like you know,
• 1:22:49
  I'm staring at the camera and we're in the performance center, Like I fucking
• 1:22:55
  shiver when I think about that cringe. I hated it, but uh yeah,
• 1:23:00
  I mean Bailey got us through that ship, so I was her injury.
• 1:23:06
  You know, even though Drew lost his title after he won it,
• 1:23:11
  but they still got their WrestleMania moments. I won't be forgotten, good or
• 1:23:15
  bad. So Doyle going back to damage control and remember speculating a lot about
• 1:23:28
  how they were going to interfere and who was gonna help Bailey and blah blah
• 1:23:31
  blah. None of that ended up happening. And I found it curious that
• 1:23:36
  this was right before the main event, right, And I was like,
• 1:23:41
  well, they're not gonna have two matches but basically have the same story right
• 1:23:47
  where the bad guys gang gets taken out by the good guys Gang. Right,
• 1:23:54
  that's not gonna happen twice in a row. I did find it weird.
• 1:23:59
  You know, I think we all picked Bailey to win this, but
• 1:24:01
  when Sammy won and we figured Cody was gonna win, I didn't think Bailey
• 1:24:06
  would also win, you know. I thought we would get two of the
• 1:24:10
  three, not all three. So that's threw me for a loop. Yeah,
• 1:24:14
  this was a great match, though I wish it had started a little
• 1:24:18
  faster, maybe kind of the opposite of the last couple of matches that got
• 1:24:24
  off to real hot starts. I mean, there's a place for a s
• 1:24:28
  low start. I guess a lot of the Roman matches start slow. I
• 1:24:31
  just kind of wish this would be more of a get right after it kind
• 1:24:36
  of match. But things definitely picked up after EO did that moon salt to
• 1:24:42
  the outside and it was kind of like a sprint from there, which was
• 1:24:45
  great. The finish I didn't love though. I mean, I know I
• 1:24:48
  get that Bailey was telling the knee, but like the finishing sequence like kind
• 1:24:54
  of, I don't know, lacked some urgency maybe if that makes any sense.
• 1:25:00
  I kind of get what you're saying. Like, for one, the
• 1:25:02
  rose plant that she finally hit EO with wasn't really that clean. Yeah,
• 1:25:09
  and then just the uh because the rose plants was she pinned with right she
• 1:25:12
  hit the elbow dropped in the then the rose plant. Yeah, it was
• 1:25:15
  kind of uh, it didn't it didn't feel climactic. I guess like it
• 1:25:21
  didn't have a sense. Yeah, I didn't have a crescendo. It just
• 1:25:25
  kind of ended. Yeah, it was just like they were, Yeah,
• 1:25:27
  they were just going back and forth. It ended and then she what she
• 1:25:31
  countered one thing and then elbow drop rose plant one two three. Yeah,
• 1:25:36
  I get where you're going from with that. Yeah. I mean I think,
• 1:25:40
  uh, the weight of expect I think I expected more from this match
• 1:25:44
  than I could possibly have delivered. Uh, So, like I think this
• 1:25:47
  this one for me was like the victim of over expectations. Maybe, you
• 1:25:53
  know it definitely, it definitely said that the main event that might happen with
• 1:25:57
  and it actually I don't think it did, but we'll get to that in
• 1:26:00
  a minute. This one, I think I just I expected this five star
• 1:26:04
  and it was. It was very good, don't get me wrong, But
• 1:26:08
  it wasn't like the best women's match ever. It wasn't you know Bianca Sasha
• 1:26:14
  or Sasha Bailey from NXT one hundred years ago. You know, it was
• 1:26:18
  just a very good match. It wasn't great. Yeah, I think the
• 1:26:23
  grade. Yeah, I think if there was one thing that was missing from
• 1:26:27
  it, I think there was a little bit of emotion missing from this match.
• 1:26:30
  There was definitely the ring psychology was there. The knowledge of each other
• 1:26:33
  were there. But from the moment that Bailey broke from Damage Control and they
• 1:26:41
  jumped on her and she went there and attacked them, or they attacked her,
• 1:26:45
  and then she got that pole and started laying them out, and then
• 1:26:46
  we saw EO with the belt and Bailey with the pipe and they both looked
• 1:26:51
  like they were about to swing at each other, but then hesitated. That
• 1:26:55
  kind of set us up for there to be emotion in this story, like
• 1:27:00
  almost like they don't like each other, but they still kind of still deep
• 1:27:04
  down care for each other. But that seemed to be thrown away real quick
• 1:27:09
  in the storyline with them just attacking attacking, and then the promo that EO
• 1:27:14
  had, we're basically saying that I'm sick of Bailey and this, that and
• 1:27:16
  the third, so they pretty much set it up that they were just like,
• 1:27:19
  Okay, they just don't like each other anymore. And I still kind
• 1:27:23
  of held out some hope that at some point in the match we might see
• 1:27:26
  some true emotions or true feelings come through, like Okay, I've been saying
• 1:27:30
  that I hate you, but I actually really kind of like, you know,
• 1:27:33
  we hate you, but still care somewhere. And none of that was
• 1:27:38
  in the match, And I think that could have been a little bit of
• 1:27:40
  seasoning that this match needed just to take it to the next level. Wait,
• 1:27:45
  like maybe this could have been in a cage or something. Just pure
• 1:27:48
  hate, no second chances, no handshake, you know, none of that.
• 1:27:56
  It was just pure fucking hatred, I guess, but I don't even
• 1:28:00
  know if it was pure hatred. It was just animosity. I don't even
• 1:28:03
  know if they're at the point of its where where the hate where I would
• 1:28:08
  say it's hatred, like they definitely don't like each other, but I don't
• 1:28:12
  think it's I don't know that there's that much vitriol in it other than when
• 1:28:16
  Bailey attacked EO after the interview. That's probably the one moment that we got,
• 1:28:21
  but again, it was just one moment. Does does this feud continue?
• 1:28:30
  Or does does Damage Control get traded to raw and we go our separate
• 1:28:34
  ways? Or Yeah, that's no TVD because I think we've had what two
• 1:28:39
  smackdowns since and we haven't seen them at all. We have not seen you
• 1:28:45
  at all. I think I'm about done with Bailey versus Damage Control. Yeah,
• 1:28:50
  I think they kind of. Yeah, I think the story has been
• 1:28:56
  told more or less. I don't know what where else there is to go
• 1:28:59
  with the other and EO trying to regain the title, which we're fairly certain
• 1:29:03
  that she's not going to do. Yeah, I mean, didn't they have
• 1:29:06
  a Number one Contenders match because Bailey was I think out watching Number one contends.
• 1:29:15
  No, there was Bailey was going to grant Naomi the shot because Naomi
• 1:29:21
  had her back and then that's when Tiffany Stratton came out there trying to talk
• 1:29:28
  her shit and got her ass humbled real quick, taking the loss. Which
• 1:29:33
  on the subject of that, since we happened to bring that up, nothing,
• 1:29:39
  nothing that I don't like about that. Again, I like that she
• 1:29:41
  gave her that, but I hope that that doesn't. The only thing I
• 1:29:48
  didn't like about it was the fact that it was just Naomi by herself and
• 1:29:53
  she didn't have Jade and Bionco with her. Yeah, but like, I
• 1:29:58
  hope this doesn't. I hope they're not doing this to like break nail me
• 1:30:03
  off as on her own and have Jade and beyoncampaired up. For all the
• 1:30:09
  twenty twenty three, I want to see all three. I want to see
• 1:30:12
  the three of them twenty four. Yeah, well I agree, I want
• 1:30:16
  I want to see the three of them together as a click for the year.
• 1:30:20
  I want to see them. I want to see all three of them
• 1:30:24
  running and doing things together as a click. I don't want to see.
• 1:30:28
  Okay, Bianca and Jad are at Tag Team and Naomi's going to be going
• 1:30:30
  back to being a singles competitor, where she's probably inevitably going to be competitive,
• 1:30:35
  but mostly jobbing throughout the year that I don't want to see. I
• 1:30:39
  think they have they got something really special with the three of them together,
• 1:30:44
  and I don't want to see that lost. I think they'll keep the three
• 1:30:46
  of them together. I mean, the only factor right now is the draft.
• 1:30:51
  But uh, I you know, because Jade and Bianca just be Chelsea
• 1:30:58
  Green and Piper and former women Tag champions. I think they're going. We
• 1:31:05
  know the direction they're going, Like Naobi was going, she wants this title.
• 1:31:10
  These girls want the tag titles, like I guess they they have their
• 1:31:14
  eyes set and I think they're gonna come back around. But I think they're
• 1:31:19
  They both all three of them have their eyes set on gold immediately. So
• 1:31:24
  maybe that's what they're doing. And I can only be a thing, but
• 1:31:28
  just don't lose sight of the three of them. Yeah, I don't think
• 1:31:30
  that. I don't think that. I don't want They can have their individual
• 1:31:33
  storylines going, but it should still exists within the three of them together as
• 1:31:42
  a pseudo faction, whether they have a name or not, whether they just
• 1:31:45
  call them the Big Three. I think that that can work, But don't
• 1:31:49
  just have like every time we see Naomi on TV, it's just Naomi And
• 1:31:54
  every time we see Byanka and Jade, they're together, small backstage segment or
• 1:32:01
  something. You know, you openly acknowledged them as a threesome. Nice.
• 1:32:12
  All right, all right, all this left is Snoop Dogg the big main
• 1:32:19
  event. Oh yeah, did you catch that? Snoop uh incorrectly read the
• 1:32:26
  two day attendance number just so he could say, just so he could get
• 1:32:30
  a four joke in. Yeah, I said that. I think I said
• 1:32:33
  that at the stadium when we were there. But yeah, I notice I
• 1:32:38
  did, like George, I remember George Kettle getting booed. That was pretty
• 1:32:42
  awesome. Yeah. Yeah, one one hundred and forty ninety eight was the
• 1:32:49
  combined days of the attendance record. They had the cheerleaders out there, Uh,
• 1:32:59
  the out there. I thought somebody was gonna go flying out of the
• 1:33:01
  ring. They were all bouncing. Dude, I'm watching it right now,
• 1:33:06
  dude. Yeah, I was watching that. I was like, dude,
• 1:33:10
  girls, chill the fuck out. I'm like, that fucking ring is shaken.
• 1:33:15
  Like, if you break that ring, we can't have our main event
• 1:33:16
  pissed. Yeah, yeah, don't kill Snoop Dogg. Also, at this
• 1:33:24
  time. Now, the temperature they say on here forty nine, so it
• 1:33:29
  did drop, but I don't know, it didn't really feel that cold.
• 1:33:33
  At no point did ever really feel cold that night? Yeah? Yeah,
• 1:33:39
  So so this match is sponsored by Snickers. So we've had Snickers, We've
• 1:33:45
  had slim Gems, we've had dude wipes, we've had gin and juice,
• 1:33:53
  we went on oh Prime Spanish language drink. Yes, and then we've had
• 1:34:00
  American shield sponsors all all day. So I guess I'd rather have it,
• 1:34:12
  I guess per match then it all being shoved in my face at once in
• 1:34:16
  every match. I don't know, but this is the future, Like you
• 1:34:24
  know, we're gonna get a shitload of sponsors and now to the point where
• 1:34:29
  we have a prime fucking Matt in the center of the ring at WrestleMania.
• 1:34:35
  Yeah yeah, I mean we talked about how things would change after the merger,
• 1:34:42
  and that's certainly been one of them. Actually, speaking of the merger,
• 1:34:45
  I was kind of surprised that we didn't hear a peep about UFC three
• 1:34:49
  hundred. It was like, I guess the weekend after. I was shocked
• 1:34:55
  that they didn't even mention it once. I thought we gonna get inundated with
• 1:35:00
  don't forget about you have C three hundred, don't forget about you three hundred.
• 1:35:03
  Don't And I know I don't hear about it. No, the only
• 1:35:08
  mint, the only time I even noticed the UFC at all was at w
• 1:35:12
  W World. I think something, Yeah, they had something for UFC there
• 1:35:15
  went outside of that. Hell, no, UFC was virtually non existent.
• 1:35:20
  But I appreciate that if it's an other if it's some other show and you
• 1:35:27
  want to, you know, hype up UFC coming up, then that's fine.
• 1:35:30
  But WrestleMania, Nah, this is the big one. Leave this,
• 1:35:33
  Leave this to w W. You want to hype up WrestleMania, I mean
• 1:35:40
  a UFC upcoming UFC pay per viewer like Backlash or fucking King of the Ring,
• 1:35:45
  go for it. I'm still waiting for the day when there's a dual
• 1:35:50
  event or there's a UFC Saturday Wrestling Sunday something, but that hopefully that's a
• 1:36:00
  ways off and not. I mean I thought we were gonna be going immediately
• 1:36:04
  there, but I guess not. Which persists forbidden door? Yeah, right,
• 1:36:11
  Shana Basler versus fucking Amanda New Years mm hm. Cody Robs, He's
• 1:36:23
  gonna realized. This is the part of the story that you grow up dreaming
• 1:36:32
  about. The moment you envision is child right before you at your name into
• 1:36:41
  history. Unfortunately, reality doesn't always have a happy ending. You can step
• 1:37:02
  away, set a new standard, ignite a revolution, Yet even with all
• 1:37:09
  that and your family's legacy, the dream remains just out of reach. Sometimes
• 1:37:19
  you just won't be better than the absolute best. Three half years has the
• 1:37:28
  undisputed champion still running every city he walks into. Who's on your mount Rushmore?
• 1:37:36
  This man is his own mountain common Rings continues to march his way through
• 1:37:44
  history. The one thing that is consistent in this day is that that man
• 1:37:50
  is still champion. But who said that's where the story has to wind.
• 1:38:01
  I think all I really can say is I'm not done. The story is
• 1:38:08
  unfinished. But a lot of good stories have a lot of pages. I'm
• 1:38:11
  back from the day from the back of my head, been gone on,
• 1:38:14
  facing colors that should never be safe, the wrapping the grit from the pit
• 1:38:18
  of this band, been taking every whip them word. I've never been this
• 1:38:21
  bad. You're not fit to be on top, You're not fit to be
• 1:38:26
  the face of this company because you don't ever deliver. You're irrelevant, just
• 1:38:32
  like your dad. All the places I've been dead, I'm bed. I've
• 1:38:36
  been booking down and beat a bustill get a baseless embraces and the tasteless two
• 1:38:42
  bases, kield and resurrected because I'll never be bad. My chance, the
• 1:38:46
  fast, the starting there's alive and well you know you cheated me. I
• 1:38:54
  had you. I want that title and I am coming for it. I
• 1:38:59
  am coming for you. Roman Reigns visits Member Drums News and they said,
• 1:39:08
  rumas it's the Rockey and Roman Reigns will end your story tragically. Hoddy,
• 1:39:19
  He's lucky to be here. This is all Mountain. We run this business.
• 1:39:31
  That's all you will ever be. It's number two because I'm number one
• 1:39:38
  forever. How do you stop the blow lines? It's blood by rules.
• 1:39:45
  Tomorrow anything goes. You gotta take on that man with no rules on the
• 1:39:51
  biggest side of your life. We ain't finishing no story. The story is
• 1:40:00
  no longer about myself. The story is about all of you who have followed
• 1:40:06
  me to the absolute ends. And if I learned anything from last year,
• 1:40:16
  I can't do it alone. Guys, will you ride with me? And
• 1:40:23
  on April seventh against Roman Reigns, will you fight with me? Now we've
• 1:40:30
  reached the final chapter. The dream turned a nightmare, given one last chance
• 1:40:39
  against a bloodline stronger than ever Tonight, one way or another, the story
• 1:40:50
  ends, I'm not number two, I'm the one. You don't win.
• 1:41:00
  You will never get another shot at this again disputed w W Universal Championship.
• 1:41:28
  Cody comes out in his skull mask with so why you don't like it?
• 1:41:33
  You guys don't like it? And while we're talking about spending money on entrances,
• 1:41:39
  I wonder how much they are whoever paid for that spent on that thing?
• 1:41:42
  Because it was on screen for about seven seconds. It was the same
• 1:41:46
  guy who made the was that that can't have been cheap. No, it
• 1:41:56
  wasn't a full headed mask. It was just kind of like basically a mask
• 1:41:59
  of space that wrapped around. But it was made. Yeah, it was
• 1:42:04
  made by the same guy who did the Fiend mask. So I give it
• 1:42:09
  some time. I give it Definitely before the end of the year, that
• 1:42:13
  ship will be up on w W shop. Fans will be able to get
• 1:42:16
  their own fucking Cody mask exactly the shop. Yeah, there was a point
• 1:42:28
  in time where I had a hurricane mask that I bought off w W shop,
• 1:42:32
  So life decisions. Even Brady got a nice little mini pop when she
• 1:42:39
  pop to take the mask off of them. Yeah. I thought that was
• 1:42:44
  great that she was there. I mean, like, to be honest,
• 1:42:46
  like, I mean, I'd want my wife there if I'm about to go
• 1:42:49
  out and fucking have my moment like that. And then I kind of liked
• 1:42:54
  the camera shot of him walking down the ramp with all the fog and uh
• 1:43:00
  the smoke behind him, and Brandy kind of like just disappears into the fog
• 1:43:02
  as he walks away, you know what I mean, Like she fades out.
• 1:43:05
  I thought that was a pretty cool camera shot. Like you need to
• 1:43:09
  go back and watch that again if you haven't seen it, But yeah,
• 1:43:13
  it was a cool shot. Yeah. Also, I will say this Wrestleman
• 1:43:16
  the outfit not as good as the WrestleMania thirty nine outfit in my opinion,
• 1:43:21
  I liked his outfit from last year better wings and shit. Yeah this one.
• 1:43:27
  I mean they had the shoulder place with the eagles and gold were a
• 1:43:30
  little bit more situated, and he was letting some of the taco meat show
• 1:43:34
  through the top. But I guess a bit long of a cape draping behind
• 1:43:41
  him. But I don't know. I thought last year's outfit was better.
• 1:43:46
  But I will say, well, when we get to the actual match itself,
• 1:43:51
  I'll bring that up. But Roman coming out with the orchestra, nice,
• 1:43:58
  nice, classy touch. Hildelphia orchestra, Is that what it was or
• 1:44:01
  the Yeah, it was like the something I think it was like high school
• 1:44:06
  kids or something, some sort of youth orchestra or something like that. But
• 1:44:09
  it was an orchestra, and yeah it was nice. That was cool.
• 1:44:13
  Yeah, the coolest hell fitting of a champion. Yeah, you have an
• 1:44:16
  orchestra playing you out like that? Tell you hold on. Actually I have
• 1:44:23
  it here, like I just hear as performed by the School District of Philadelphia
• 1:45:05
  All City Orchestra. Okay, Philadelphia, the tribal safe what great? Yeah,
• 1:45:17
  it was it was dope. I will say it came It came off
• 1:45:23
  better on the replay than it actually did in the stadium, just for the
• 1:45:28
  simple factor that just the acoustics of the stadium marketment for you know, that
• 1:45:31
  type of orchestra set up. But it was definitely a dope entrance and once
• 1:45:39
  they finally got to the ring or the parallels, I mean not the parallels,
• 1:45:43
  the the imagery could not have been more contrasting between Cody and Roman.
• 1:45:53
  You got Cody blond hair, blue eyes, white tights with the white boosts
• 1:45:58
  red white and blue, and then you got Roman are black Beard, black
• 1:46:04
  tights, black boots. Mellenated just more. You could not be more good
• 1:46:12
  versus evil in the w W as far as as far as the imagery of
• 1:46:16
  those two standing up opposite each other in the ring. But the match itself
• 1:46:26
  was a I'll just ask the questions, taking the whole match into account,
• 1:46:35
  is this the best Wrestlemaniam made event every conversation, I'm not saying just the
• 1:46:44
  matches, So I'm taking the whole thing in it. From the whole thing.
• 1:46:46
  I think so. I believe so, because I mean, we're talking
• 1:46:51
  about a story that's been uh, that's been addressed for the last two years.
• 1:47:01
  You know, we we haven't had many feuds like this carry on a
• 1:47:08
  year after year or two year period. The ones I can think of are
• 1:47:11
  John Cena and The Rock the Undertaker and Sean Michaels The Undertaker and Triple h.
• 1:47:17
  You know, there isn't there many matches that that can carry a story
• 1:47:23
  two years in the making, and this was so big. I mean,
• 1:47:27
  this is a massive storyline for from the bloodline, the you know, as
• 1:47:31
  I pray how many days as champion? Offhand? Uh yeah, was it
• 1:47:42
  like thirteen sixteen? Oh wow, because that's weird because uh Seth's was three
• 1:47:49
  sixteen. Uh hmmm odd. But I mean this not only has he like
• 1:47:59
  conquered everybody who's been laid in front of him, every legend that's been laid
• 1:48:02
  in front of him, and Romany Rains has beaten the Undertaker, He's beaten
• 1:48:05
  John Cena, He's beaten people. Yeah. Yeah, He's being every fucking
• 1:48:13
  person. And then like you know, Cody Rhodes comes and he beats Cody
• 1:48:18
  Rhodes. But you know, it took him a whole year to to you
• 1:48:26
  know, it wasn't just Cody's saying next year like you and me, Like
• 1:48:30
  the rock and scene was like, you know, next year, just you
• 1:48:33
  and me. It's like no, I like, I gotta work towards it,
• 1:48:35
  like I gotta win. I gotta figure out how many get back here.
• 1:48:39
  So what did it take you took winning the Rumble to get back here
• 1:48:42
  again. You know, it took uh you know, I guess, I
• 1:48:46
  guess you could say, pulling jay Usa away from you and then you know,
• 1:48:51
  kind of breaking the taking parts of the blood line apart from you to
• 1:48:58
  weaken you. Because now he this is Roman has a chink in his armor.
• 1:49:02
  And you thought that with the rock there, that that that chink was
• 1:49:05
  replaced, but it really wasn't. I always thought the you know, they
• 1:49:12
  were at their peak when they had both USO's and you know they had all
• 1:49:15
  the gold, uh yeah, and they had Sammy. That's when I thought
• 1:49:20
  they were peak. And and once they lost Sammy, once Cody got Sammy
• 1:49:25
  from them, then they got jay from them, and that's when we knew
• 1:49:29
  the blood line was starting to crumble. And and we've seen it even more
• 1:49:32
  further after WrestleMania, Like now the blood line is basically we're we did Infinity
• 1:49:40
  War the night before. This is endgame. This is when you know,
• 1:49:46
  everybody who's had beef with Thano slash Roman Reigns like is coming out of the
• 1:49:51
  woodwork to to put an end to this, like you know, like I
• 1:49:55
  don't I don't have to win, but you're not fucking leaving here with that
• 1:49:59
  title, and that title is going on fucking Cody Rhoads. You know,
• 1:50:02
  this needs to end this bloodline rain and and it ends here like everybody else
• 1:50:09
  has lost their gold and you've lost your your Soldier's Roman, like this is
• 1:50:14
  the last thing you have is that's this means everything to you, you know,
• 1:50:19
  and and we're gonna fucking take it. And yeah, dude, they
• 1:50:25
  pulled everything out of the woodworks, like we got we got the Rock there,
• 1:50:28
  we got I mean we kind of knew, fans knew. I feel
• 1:50:32
  like definitely the night before, like, oh, we're definitely getting the Rock
• 1:50:34
  tonight. Definitely, we're definitely getting Solo. Uh And and I thought since
• 1:50:40
  Solo was there, it's like we're so getting Seena because who else? Right,
• 1:50:44
  And we saw Sina was gonna be there, but in what capacity?
• 1:50:47
  And it's like, Okay, it's the end of the night. So who
• 1:50:50
  haven't we seen yet that we has been rumored, Well, we heard Undertaker
• 1:50:56
  might be there, we heard Stone Colt might be there, we heard that
• 1:50:59
  the rock Is can probably be there. Of course, right, so you
• 1:51:03
  know, we get John Cena taking out Solo, and you know, we
• 1:51:09
  got. I forgot to mention we did get Jimmy, we got It's crazy
• 1:51:15
  first to come out. I'm all over the place. Then Seena, then
• 1:51:19
  Rock and the Rock Scena stare down. They look very puny. Yeah,
• 1:51:26
  which is weird because it's like, man like, we could we could still
• 1:51:30
  do a rubber match. I mean technically these guys both have a win over
• 1:51:34
  each other. I was like, exact is that you know? For is
• 1:51:40
  that you know? Maybe I don't know anyway, Uh dude. And then
• 1:51:46
  see it looks now compared to the way the Rock looks now, the Rock
• 1:51:49
  with curbs on the fun out of scene it right now, give it a
• 1:51:55
  haircut, some Tanny and some time yeah, and some here and some Rogua.
• 1:52:00
  Yeah, some hair and plugs. Hey, Orton got hair and plugs.
• 1:52:03
  I remember that. That's a that's a weird couple of weeks scene or
• 1:52:09
  with hair plugs if you guys ever noticed that. But oh yeah, yeah,
• 1:52:15
  And I will say is from a storyline standpoint, it made sense in
• 1:52:19
  terms of everybody who came to Cody's came to Codi's eight, because it's all
• 1:52:25
  people who had an issue with Roman in the bloodline at one point or another,
• 1:52:30
  whether it was Jay having left Seena, having fought and lost Seth Rollins.
• 1:52:35
  Obviously their history, even Undertaker as the one who broke his streak unofficially
• 1:52:45
  but as one of the people who has defeated Undertaker at Mania Sven, he
• 1:52:50
  had a little bit of reason for you know, doing that. But even
• 1:52:57
  with that, it made sense, and yes, from a storytelling standpoint,
• 1:53:00
  it was masterful. Yea. As much as we all popped for Undertaker,
• 1:53:09
  we were all still kind of low key hoping to hear the glass break.
• 1:53:12
  Yeah, honestly I was too. I I was. I was betting everything
• 1:53:16
  on it. Like at that point, I was like, it's gotta be
• 1:53:18
  stone cold, gotta be so cold, and you know what, we were
• 1:53:21
  all sitting there just thinking, I stone colds next, stone cold next,
• 1:53:25
  right, Yeah, it was so it was supposed to be exactly it was,
• 1:53:30
  but they were couldn't come. Yeah, how far apar could they possibly
• 1:53:33
  have been? What they they either was w w e bing or how much
• 1:53:40
  was stone Cold asking for? I know, That's what I said. I
• 1:53:42
  was like, you would think though, like they would, it's gotta be
• 1:53:45
  on so cold, and it's like, come on, dude, like we
• 1:53:48
  got money. I mean they went far enough that they did the Cody Rock
• 1:53:55
  beat down in front of a fucking huge poster of John Cena and Stone Cold
• 1:54:00
  Steve Austin. And then like two days later, on Austin's Instagram, Uh,
• 1:54:06
  he had a thing where he was playing with his cat, of course,
• 1:54:10
  and he's like, oh, I want to go out to my truck.
• 1:54:12
  And he goes out to the truck and there's an Easter basket sitting there
• 1:54:15
  and he's like, oh, it's weird. It's a It's filled with beer
• 1:54:17
  and Easter eggs. It was like, I wonder who could have left me
• 1:54:20
  this? You know, Like, so they went far enough to do all
• 1:54:24
  this, so clearly they were negotiations. Yeah, I mean they must have
• 1:54:28
  been clothes. But I can't believe. I undertake it was cool, don't
• 1:54:31
  get me wrong, but I can't eve they couldn't figure out how to make
• 1:54:35
  that work. You know, what was Austin asking for? Like a million
• 1:54:40
  dollar for running fucking run the show? Whatever shares Vince has left of his
• 1:54:47
  only door running It's a million? Okay, at ko come a million.
• 1:54:53
  I mean they gave the rock, but they say nine and a half million
• 1:54:57
  dollars worth of stock just for WrestleMania. Yeah, I think I think you
• 1:55:01
  could have ponied up something for for old Stone called right, but because as
• 1:55:06
  much as big as we popped for Undertaker when that gong hit, imagine what
• 1:55:11
  it would have been had we heard the glass shadow. Well, dude,
• 1:55:14
  I that's exactly the point where I lost my fucking voice. I'm just now
• 1:55:18
  getting it back almost two weeks later. Stone call, I would have a
• 1:55:24
  voice. I've been just walking around all take going what I have nothing?
• 1:55:30
  But they really did handle all those run ins. Well. You know,
• 1:55:35
  one of my big questions going in was how are you gonna have all this
• 1:55:40
  interference fuckery and still have Cody Win, you know, more or less clean
• 1:55:45
  as a sheet. And really the only interference I think seeing a hit Roman
• 1:55:53
  with whatever his move is called the attitude adjustment or whatever whatever it's called,
• 1:55:58
  Sir, sir, sir, what people who were interfering, Yeah, or
• 1:56:02
  at least touch Roman? Yeah yeah, yeah, other than what first yeah,
• 1:56:08
  Jimmy first interfering with uh, well, Solo did because Solo and Rome
• 1:56:13
  hit the spike spears. It's okay for it's okay for Cody to get hit
• 1:56:16
  with the right because bloodline rules, and obviously they're the villains. So yeah,
• 1:56:21
  you guys. The exception is that that attitude adjustment, you know,
• 1:56:26
  none of it affected Roman, which was good because you had you know,
• 1:56:29
  you couldn't have had Cody because the undertaker Tombstone, and you know exactly,
• 1:56:34
  Yeah, everybody took each shot like set on solo, through the table,
• 1:56:40
  take her choke, slamming the rock, Jimmy spearing Jimmy, I mean Jay
• 1:56:45
  sparring Jimmy off the ramp, through the table. Yeah, like and you
• 1:56:49
  know, one of my questions, you know, was how are they going
• 1:56:51
  to navigate that? And I think they did a masterful job. I mean
• 1:56:56
  I I can't think of a way. You know, obviously the exception to
• 1:57:00
  swap out under Jacob a Stone called I don't know how that could have done
• 1:57:03
  it better? No, over the book in the best way possible. Yes,
• 1:57:08
  exactly. It wasn't too long like the fuck night one made event.
• 1:57:12
  You know what was this like about thirty minutes, which is good, thirty
• 1:57:15
  three minutes, yeah, yeah. The other one, yeah, the other
• 1:57:20
  one was forty four minutes, thirty five seconds. The night before I definitely.
• 1:57:26
  Did you guys think for just a split second that maybe they had worked
• 1:57:30
  out a deal with Tony Kahan and and uh, we're gonna see Dean Ambrose
• 1:57:35
  shut up in the show music. I honestly, I didn't think about that
• 1:57:40
  at all, because I was like, why, why, what? What
• 1:57:44
  purpose would he have to be here right now? I mean he's not been
• 1:57:50
  involved in any way, shape or format any of the Bloodline storylines, you
• 1:57:55
  know, in the past two years. Oh sure, so wouldn't have made
• 1:57:59
  sense. I I honestly couldn't. I don't know like the whole In fact,
• 1:58:04
  I think it's probably better that we didn't have that. Yeah, they
• 1:58:06
  said they did reach out. The second it crossed my mind maybe if we
• 1:58:12
  had seen Dustin come out, then I could have allowed to considered Dan Ambrose
• 1:58:18
  as well. But the fact that they was pretty much you know, Jimmy,
• 1:58:26
  I mean Jay who came when Jimmy interfered and it was like, Okay,
• 1:58:29
  this is going to be all in house. Dustin was there, but
• 1:58:32
  he obviously was not on t you know, on TV though I don't recall
• 1:58:40
  ever seeing him on TV. Was Nick Cohn? Oh yeah, he came
• 1:58:46
  at the end at the very end, Cody hugged him and but like Bruce
• 1:58:51
  Pritchard ever on TV, no no, no no. So I don't know
• 1:58:56
  if you guys. Yeah, yeah, And that's the other thing that that
• 1:59:03
  we have. I don't know if we've ever seen that in a WrestleMania made
• 1:59:08
  event or if it has. It's been a really long time where Cody got
• 1:59:12
  the ultimate hero celebration at the end with all the major baby faces coming out,
• 1:59:18
  Sammy he won. We've seen that a couple of times. It's been
• 1:59:23
  a long time since we of that to that effect. Oh man, Yeah,
• 1:59:30
  all the all the wonderful came out celebrate with the Damn Ship almost like
• 1:59:36
  they damn took out the n w O or something. Yeah, Brandy's out
• 1:59:42
  there, his mom's out there, is fucking there's all these kids in the
• 1:59:45
  ring and there. Yeah, seem punk came out, which was nice.
• 1:59:55
  Punk l A Knight way down there. Yeah right, Yeah. And I
• 2:00:00
  thought it was nice that Orton Sammy were the ones to hold him up.
• 2:00:05
  You know, I was waiting for like a proud pop. Yeah, I
• 2:00:13
  was waiting for h you know, when Orton and Sammy had him up triple
• 2:00:16
  ah' looking at him. I was waiting for me, like now like the
• 2:00:20
  thumb down, they just chump him. Now it's like it's evolution all over
• 2:00:30
  against like oh my god, like no, not again, Triple A,
• 2:00:34
  is you son of a bitch? You son of a bitch? And forgiving
• 2:00:38
  him the throne? Dude. I just showed Andrew that the other day and
• 2:00:43
  I was like, listen, you got to check this out. And I
• 2:00:45
  was like, I was like, and look kind of like what we're at
• 2:00:49
  now. I was like, Cody want from that to this? And I
• 2:00:55
  was like, you ever play hard times? For no play a hard time?
• 2:01:00
  It's like one of the one of the greatest promos in wrestling history.
• 2:01:04
  Mm hm oh yeah. Yeah. Sometimes it's funny to like go, like
• 2:01:14
  somebody who hasn't who's missed uh maybe like a generation of wrestling or like who's
• 2:01:19
  new to wrestling, right, and you show them like some of these characters
• 2:01:25
  and you show them at their past gimmicks. So like me, it's like,
• 2:01:29
  oh man, you gotta look at mustache Cody. I'm like, you
• 2:01:31
  gotta look at broken nose Cody. Oh like no, no, it's even
• 2:01:34
  better. You gotta look at star Dust. It's like, oh, shit,
• 2:01:41
  I that guy would become the face of the biggest wrestling company in the
• 2:01:45
  world. Yeah. Yeah, And I like to even show her stuff like,
• 2:01:48
  hey, like this is why Cody and Randy Yorton have such a history,
• 2:01:53
  and you show you show them something like of legacy, you know,
• 2:01:58
  and like this is why you know Triple H and Cody have a unique history,
• 2:02:02
  and you show them that whole you know, breaking of the throne thing,
• 2:02:08
  Because I honestly I said, when I saw that in a W I
• 2:02:12
  was like, well, there goes Cody's chance of ever coming back. I
• 2:02:15
  was wrong. I actually decur on that one. But I mean a million
• 2:02:21
  times over to never say never in the w W. Yeah, and and
• 2:02:26
  to think, you know, like there's a lot of people who never thought
• 2:02:30
  Cody would ever be uh a world champion here in this company. Like there
• 2:02:35
  there's definitely was a point like that where I was watching Cody in his career.
• 2:02:40
  I was like, damn, Like now we're at start us, Like
• 2:02:43
  what happened? Dude? You were like an awesome intercou champion. You were
• 2:02:45
  a tag team champion for a while, like of course, I mean,
• 2:02:49
  realistically speaking, nobody looked at Cody Rose as being a world champion material until
• 2:02:56
  he went to ae W. It was kind of the face of that company
• 2:03:00
  during its first, you know, year or two. Only then did people
• 2:03:05
  really start to think of Cody Rose as being that guy that could be,
• 2:03:12
  you know, a world champion caliber talent. Other than prior to that,
• 2:03:16
  he was just mid card in WWE and then independent basically rebuilding himself back up.
• 2:03:24
  And then he builds himself up to that point that when he returned to
• 2:03:28
  WWE, he had main event start him attached to him where he could be
• 2:03:35
  seen as a world champion. Now, I know you can't really see it
• 2:03:43
  on Peacock, but I have seen pictures and videos from people's phones and stuff.
• 2:03:48
  But when Cody pins Roman, Roman has a smile on his face.
• 2:03:55
  See I've seen that. I don't it looks like a smile. But also
• 2:04:00
  Cody's kind of draped across his freaking mouth. So I'm wondering, is he
• 2:04:03
  actually smiling or is it just the way Cody's laying across him is kind of
• 2:04:08
  pushing his mouth up to look like a smile. No, I think he's
• 2:04:12
  smiling because, you know, like I've seen WrestleMania moments like this, where
• 2:04:17
  like you know, we saw the there was once what was it the Hests
• 2:04:25
  of the Century where Rollin's Pence Roman and right before the three count he says,
• 2:04:30
  thank you brother. You know. You know I've seen that a couple
• 2:04:35
  of times with Roman. You know a lot of wrestlers start doing that,
• 2:04:40
  like you know what it means a big moment like that, especially for the
• 2:04:43
  pin, they'll sneak in something like that. But I genuinely think that he
• 2:04:48
  was smiling at the end just because he knew what he did for Cody,
• 2:04:53
  you know, like this is going to elevate him so much, and what
• 2:04:57
  he did for that title. I mean because we and you know what,
• 2:05:00
  because I went to the rall after we went from night one, uh and
• 2:05:08
  I too people there were some people, some fucking haters who weren't putting the
• 2:05:13
  finger up, they were putting another finger up. You know, there were
• 2:05:15
  some there were some Roman haters, you know. And but the next night
• 2:05:19
  on Raw when we were there, it says saying, you know, fucking
• 2:05:25
  Roman and Roman asshole, and you know, all the chance we got mainair
• 2:05:30
  or whatever, but like it was thank you Roman, that's what we got.
• 2:05:32
  The night after, you know, you don't get that back to be
• 2:05:38
  a fucking enormous babyface. Yeah. Yeah, if they're doing if they're doing
• 2:05:44
  this civil war, what it looks like this this civil war. I mean,
• 2:05:47
  if you guys want to we talk, we talked about raw we might
• 2:05:50
  as well jump into the fall up, dude, we have we have to
• 2:05:55
  one one. God, did you guys hear about the rolex? Yes?
• 2:06:01
  Oh, that Cody was given a Rolex by Triple H and Bruce nick Con.
• 2:06:10
  I guess. I guess at some point Dusty Rhodes had a gold Rolex
• 2:06:14
  that he pawned to send Cody to acting lessons or something. And they went
• 2:06:19
  and found that watch damn and gave it back and gave it back to him.
• 2:06:26
  That's fucking incredible, Like, how the fuck one, how the fuck
• 2:06:29
  did they find that? Yeah, that's that's incredible. Rolexes have you know,
• 2:06:34
  there's serial numbers and stuff, And I know Conrad Thompson is like a
• 2:06:41
  huge guy, so I I wouldn't be surprised if he had a hand in
• 2:06:45
  locating it. And I mean, I I don't know whoever had its probably
• 2:06:51
  away or that this used to belong to Dusty Rhodes or whatever. So there's
• 2:06:57
  like a huge subculture people swap and sell and modify, do all this ship
• 2:07:03
  to rolexes. So it does sound like kind of crazy, but it might
• 2:07:08
  not be quite as crazy as it seems. Oh yeah, I'm not saying
• 2:07:10
  it's Yeah, I don't think it's like inconceivable or anything. But wow,
• 2:07:13
  like that's not something that you would think would be easily tracked down unless it's
• 2:07:19
  something that somebody like, you know, like the moment that they got it,
• 2:07:24
  they immediately knew what it was, and yeah, you know, like
• 2:07:28
  protected it and all these times like this rolex right here, this Dusty Roads
• 2:07:31
  rolex, and YadA, YadA, YadA, and you know it's maintained that
• 2:07:34
  story throughout the entire time that it's been Yeah, if one owner to the
• 2:07:40
  other, then it's something like that, right if it's or something that a
• 2:07:45
  single person, maybe only one or two people have owned and they like this
• 2:07:48
  was Dusty Roads Rolex, YadA YadA. But yeah, that's that's incredible.
• 2:07:53
  I hope I hope they show that in this WrestleMania doc whenever that comes out.
• 2:07:58
  Yeah. I remember they played it commercial for it at the thing,
• 2:08:01
  and I remember saying to somebody like I thought it would be years before we
• 2:08:03
  got uh yeah commentory with the behind the scenes footage from this, and they
• 2:08:09
  were like claiming it was going to be the Wednesday, right, and it's
• 2:08:11
  coming in a couple of days, and yep, two weeks later, I
• 2:08:13
  still haven't got it. But it's apparently because they have so much footage and
• 2:08:18
  they totally didn't realize how long it would take them to put it all together.
• 2:08:22
  Which good. Hey, I'll sit and watch a six hour documentary about
• 2:08:26
  it. I mean, yeah, I'm here for it. Honestly, the
• 2:08:28
  fact that they even announced it Wednesday for YouTube, I was surprised. I'm
• 2:08:31
  like, fucking YouTube. Really, yeah, like this, something like this
• 2:08:35
  deserves to me is peacock worthy. Like this should be like a two hour
• 2:08:41
  documentary or even more. If they want to split it up into two parts
• 2:08:45
  and you know, part one one week, part two the next week and
• 2:08:48
  put that shit on put it on the cock. Yeah, I really want
• 2:08:54
  to watch that. That'd be pretty cool, especially if, especially if they
• 2:09:00
  are honest and truthful about the changing of the main event. I don't think
• 2:09:07
  we're gonna give it's the full truth. I think they're gonna sugarcoat it somewhat
• 2:09:11
  even just based upon what you hear in the trailer for the way the Rock
• 2:09:15
  is kind of describing it and saying, you know, you give things back
• 2:09:18
  to the people, Like I'm sorry, what did you really give it back
• 2:09:22
  to the people? Like that kind of sounds like a little bit like saving
• 2:09:24
  face. So I don't think we're gonna get the the realty. You know,
• 2:09:30
  there's gonna be a little bit of sugarcoating to it, but hopefully not
• 2:09:33
  too much because I mean that I think that's where most of the interests and
• 2:09:39
  where a lot of people aside from all the behind the scenes and everything that
• 2:09:43
  and the third but that's gonna be like the real crux of what everybody wants
• 2:09:48
  to hear about. It's like, Okay, who's behind the decision to change
• 2:09:50
  this main event? Whose idea was it? And what was the thought process
• 2:09:56
  in terms of figuring out how to pivot once you realized, oh, ship,
• 2:10:01
  we fucked up. Yeah, let's let's talk about Jimmy Usso getting kicked
• 2:10:09
  out of the bloodline? Question mark, are we just gonna gloss over this
• 2:10:16
  chair? There's so much to cover, Like yeah, like so Live Morgan
• 2:10:20
  heated this ship? Out of that fucking steel chair to rheo, and I
• 2:10:24
  missed it. I had to like watch it over again, but like,
• 2:10:28
  well, and then I found out that, you know, like now she
• 2:10:31
  might have vacated title from that, from that and tossing her into the wall,
• 2:10:35
  like ain't she do? Oh no, no, no, I'm not
• 2:10:39
  saying I'm I'm surprised that I'm I'm just pissed off. That's that we've had.
• 2:10:46
  She she's got a shoulder, it's a a C joint where your collar
• 2:10:52
  your shoulder. And with the chair shot, yeah, yeah, it was
• 2:10:58
  shot because she hit the well, I guess weird. Yeah, yeah,
• 2:11:01
  when I went back and rewatched it, like she ate that chair shots in
• 2:11:03
  the head. But then after that you see Live throw her into the wall
• 2:11:09
  and she goes in shoulder first, which I don't think lived through her with
• 2:11:11
  that much force, but maybe Ria and trying to sell it through herself into
• 2:11:16
  the wall a lot harder than she thought and may have fucked up her shoulder
• 2:11:20
  inadvertently at the process. But either way, Live's gonna take the blame for
• 2:11:24
  it. Is she about to have heat? She about to have a lot,
• 2:11:31
  As I said, as I said in our discoord. She about to
• 2:11:33
  have that leader cheating on Matt Hardy heat fans are blaming her for injuring Ria
• 2:11:37
  Ripley so interesting numbers on Rhea. She ends her title her SmackDown Women's title,
• 2:11:46
  which is of course defended on Raw. At three hundred and eighty days,
• 2:11:50
  she's tied with Bailey for the most longest reign with that particular title.
• 2:11:56
  Now the Raw Women's title, which is of course defending on back Down.
• 2:12:00
  It's still our girl, Bianca with the modern the longest modern reign, uh
• 2:12:05
  at four twenty. I know, Dre you were a little concerned you saw
• 2:12:09
  that number creeping up. I know you were a little Uh. Yeah,
• 2:12:13
  Ria might surpassed Bianca, but for now for twenty came up again for twenty
• 2:12:18
  is safe. Yeah, a bit bittersweet, but you know, don't catch
• 2:12:24
  it, you know, knock knock my blessings. Yeah, even if it
• 2:12:28
  is a bit Yeah, you don't want to see it. I mean,
• 2:12:31
  especially right, you don't want to see it because of injury. He has
• 2:12:33
  been fucking incredible for the last year, year and a half or so.
• 2:12:39
  So yeah, it sucks, it really sucks. Yeah, being like at
• 2:12:41
  peak right now when her career. I mean it just I mean, thank
• 2:12:46
  god it wasn't right before WrestleMania. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, She's not
• 2:12:52
  the first person to get injured in the middle of being as hot as they
• 2:12:56
  could be. Ass run. Meanwhile, Roman in three months without defending,
• 2:13:03
  Yeah, dude, that got I was like, okay, so how long
• 2:13:07
  is this injury? Is this? Are we talking like three months? We're
• 2:13:09
  talking six to nine like we had people who I really haven't figured out whether
• 2:13:13
  she needs surgery yet, and that's the big that's gonna make a big difference
• 2:13:18
  between well she needs to rehab, then yeah, we could be looking at
• 2:13:20
  two to three months. If she needs surgery, then yeah, probably she
• 2:13:24
  could be gone potentially the rest of the year. Damn, dude, damn.
• 2:13:31
  I want to talk about do we know we don't know how they're awarding
• 2:13:35
  her title, right? They just they didn't just said awarding vacating champion.
• 2:13:41
  They haven't said are they just gonna hand it to somebody? Is there going
• 2:13:45
  to be a match? Is there going to be a battle royal? Probably
• 2:13:48
  gonna be a right, right, They haven't said no, they haven't said
• 2:13:54
  anything officially yet. But Mike, if I had to guess, it's probably
• 2:13:58
  gonna be a tournament. It'll probably start, my guess would probably be after
• 2:14:03
  the draft, because I don't think it would. They're saying, we will,
• 2:14:07
  we will have a new champion next week, is what it sounded like
• 2:14:11
  to me. I'd be shocked if they did it that fast, if they
• 2:14:16
  just if they did what Unless they did something like a old school King of
• 2:14:22
  the Ring style tournament where Monday Night Raw next week was just all women's matches,
• 2:14:26
  the crown and new champion and they just did them all in the same
• 2:14:30
  night, that would be dope. But I highly doubt that they too,
• 2:14:35
  But that would it would be a dope ass concept if they did, that
• 2:14:39
  would be it'd be brave and bold. If they just told all the dudes
• 2:14:43
  just like a y'all sit it down tonight tonight, it's gonna be about the
• 2:14:46
  women crowding a new world one. It would make that Women's World Championship seem
• 2:14:52
  extremely important, the fact that they would devote an entire episode of Raw to
• 2:14:56
  it, And yeah, I mean, I just I would be here for
• 2:15:03
  that if they did that, But I don't think they will. I think
• 2:15:05
  I'm looking I'm looking at what's what's next week on Raw, and it says
• 2:15:11
  a new women's world champion will be crowned on the next Raw. I wonder
• 2:15:16
  what they're gonna do, mhm, battle Royal. I would know that would
• 2:15:22
  I would hate that we saw the world title get one in a Battle of
• 2:15:28
  Royal. That's how great Kyle Lee became champion. They're gonna do. They
• 2:15:33
  did it to the men's they're gonna do it to the women's. Well,
• 2:15:39
  it's a new era. We don't know that for sure. Yeah, they
• 2:15:41
  may, they may do some. They might not take up the whole episode
• 2:15:46
  of Raw, but they might do like, I don't know, a four
• 2:15:50
  women's tournament or something like that, which to me is kind of lackluster,
• 2:15:54
  like Nia Jacks Live Morgan picked two others Natalia and it'll probably but more than
• 2:16:05
  likely Nijack. If I had to venture, I guess Nijack's is gonna become
• 2:16:07
  the dude uh women's world champion. That'd be my guest ouch mm hmm,
• 2:16:16
  what I mean. I think she deserves it, just like she's had a
• 2:16:22
  she's had a strong run since coming back. She's definitely upped her game.
• 2:16:28
  She's up to she's up her skill level. She's technically a member of the
• 2:16:33
  Blood Live family. If not, she's on and again like she's put in
• 2:16:43
  the work she had. You ain't hear no it complains about her injuring nobody
• 2:16:46
  or doing anything of that nature. So I mean, and honestly, they
• 2:16:52
  could use a strong heel champion to replace Raa Ripley un Lets her have a
• 2:16:58
  good, strong run and be you know, maybe at some point she gets
• 2:17:01
  dethroned, or maybe you know, she gets used to help elevate Live Morgan
• 2:17:05
  into being a you know, a more credible champion than she was in her
• 2:17:11
  previous run, or something of that nature. But I'm not opposed to Naia
• 2:17:16
  Jacks being the new women's world champion, and quite frankly, I don't see
• 2:17:20
  anybody else on the roster at this point that kind of fits the bill.
• 2:17:24
  Yeah, unless they just really want to take advantage of the heat that Live
• 2:17:28
  Morgan has and put it on her. But I don't know that she's despite
• 2:17:33
  the heat. I don't know if she has the credibility yet. Well who
• 2:17:37
  else has? Uh? Who else is on Live Morgan's revenge tour? Maybe
• 2:17:41
  that might play a factor and of her winning the title. I don't know.
• 2:17:48
  Yeah, who took her out? Yeah? So I want to ask
• 2:17:58
  your guys opinion on something. So when I was at the Monday Night Raw
• 2:18:01
  after Ah, I know there's a when the Rock was out, there was
• 2:18:05
  all this curse and stuff. So you guys probably couldn't hear most of the
• 2:18:09
  fucking show. But what do you think the Rock gave Cody Rhoads these nuts?
• 2:18:22
  Like? I saw some funny memes. Yeah, that's funny. He
• 2:18:26
  gave him like a small bag of weed. He gave him m J s
• 2:18:31
  a w ring, that's a good one. Tickets to go see Black Adam,
• 2:18:39
  Yes, that one. I don't think he did. I don't think
• 2:18:46
  so. No, he said, yeah, like this is now we've we've
• 2:18:50
  had two. What did the Rocks say to Cody? And now what are
• 2:18:52
  the Rock hand Cody? Like? How many more of these? What did
• 2:18:56
  the Rock do or say? We need? Yeah? Great Doyle? What
• 2:19:01
  the fuck is the payoff? Rock slid in my d MS? What do
• 2:19:05
  he message me? It is your daddy's Hall of Famering? How did you
• 2:19:11
  get it? I stole it from him. I walked to my house,
• 2:19:15
  I could smell something Rocks in my kitchen. What's he cooking. What a
• 2:19:20
  y'all gonna do with this ship? Yeah, we're gonna have to wait a
• 2:19:26
  year to find out what I gave him. I was just about to ask
• 2:19:30
  that, Yeah, but then I promise you will all forget and we won't
• 2:19:35
  care anymore. Yeah. The m m j F like ring had me going.
• 2:19:41
  I was like, oh, ship, that would be funny as fuck.
• 2:19:43
  He's like, yeah, I hired your boy, and here his fucking
• 2:19:48
  music. Heat. Mhm, that's treaming. That's that's that's Mark booking it.
• 2:19:56
  Who knows. I don't either way. I doubt it's gonna hit as
• 2:20:00
  hard as telling him tonight, I'm gonna make you bleed. Yeah, It's
• 2:20:03
  like he immediately and then he does it at the end of that episode.
• 2:20:07
  Yeah, Honestly, if I don't find out what he gave him within the
• 2:20:11
  next month, nobody's gonna give a fuck the longer we wait till It's just
• 2:20:15
  like the anonymous for All General Magic, there came a point where we just
• 2:20:18
  didn't give a fuck, And what was the payoff? It was horn swaggle
• 2:20:22
  the whole time. That's the payoff. Yeah, who's Vince's son? Horns?
• 2:20:28
  Like sometimes these payoffs aren't worthy. This is the Gobbly cooker all over
• 2:20:31
  again. There's the payoff. Mysterious reveals in pro wrestling were almost always terrible.
• 2:20:39
  Oh my god, Scorpion, yeah, the higher power, it was
• 2:20:46
  me Austin. Always awful. Yeah, the one that was ever actually paid
• 2:20:52
  off the devil in a w last year, like it's never good. The
• 2:21:00
  only one there was a good one where when Shawn Michaels first came back,
• 2:21:03
  right, his first run back and his first feud with Triple H. You
• 2:21:09
  know, because I was always you know, I was raised at Triple A
• 2:21:13
  and Sewan Michaels were d X. They were best friends, right, they
• 2:21:16
  were like brothers. And then you see find out that somebody smashed Sean's facing
• 2:21:22
  through like a glass car window. Couldn't figure out who it was, and
• 2:21:26
  then like I think it was a few weeks and then they dragged out we
• 2:21:30
  found out that was Triple H. And I was like, no, that
• 2:21:35
  was a reveal I liked. I didn't know because I I didn't because they
• 2:21:41
  indicated that they were going to be, you know, d X again and
• 2:21:43
  they had the d X shirts and then the pedigree. I don't know,
• 2:21:48
  I was an Internet mark at that time, so the rumors were heavy.
• 2:21:56
  Look, come on, there wasn't much of internet anyway. I had to
• 2:21:58
  wait until the Wrestler magazine came out. Yeah, maybe for you, I
• 2:22:03
  diale website. I don't remember what website I used to go to, but
• 2:22:09
  there was enough of it that. Yeah, rumors were a thing. That's
• 2:22:13
  how we all knew that Rock and SummerSlam and a versus Sewn Michaels. Yeah,
• 2:22:22
  what what else do I want to bring out? I mean that,
• 2:22:26
  dude, let's get to Bloodlin because this is going to be confused as fuck.
• 2:22:30
  So Jimmy gets kicked out right by Solo. Solo then smashes Paul Hayman's
• 2:22:35
  phone, indicating I don't give a fuck what you tell the tribal chief.
• 2:22:39
  So Solo is looking to I don't know how though. Caslo hasn't been winning
• 2:22:45
  very fucking many matches this year, but yet this man is going to elevate
• 2:22:50
  and he makes a big point of that you haven't want to match in fucking
• 2:22:54
  six months? Yeah yeah, but I guess this is this is his payoff.
• 2:22:58
  The only matters if you count house shows, yeah, yeah, TC.
• 2:23:03
  He has still maintained strong booking on television. That's why, that's why
• 2:23:09
  they were able to pull this off like that that when that win lost streak
• 2:23:15
  only matters to again, the IWC because they're the only ones who will pick
• 2:23:20
  up on a story like that and are even bothering to track house show wins
• 2:23:26
  and losses. Which side note sidebars. Getting back to WrestleMania. When Roman
• 2:23:33
  Reigns came out to the ring and Michael Cole was announcing this is Roman Reigns
• 2:23:39
  thirty first title defense, I'm like, Cole, you really just said that
• 2:23:43
  number, Like that's supposed to mean something, thirty first, his thirty first,
• 2:23:50
  Like like that was a substantial number. Like back in the day,
• 2:23:52
  motherfuckers was doing thirty one title defenses in six months. It took this motherfucker
• 2:23:56
  three years to hit that number. Fuck out of here. Yeah, I
• 2:24:01
  mean the closest one. I guess Hulk Hogan right then, the guy he
• 2:24:03
  would have caught three months or whatever when he had two hundreds hundred was that
• 2:24:13
  thirty one? Like he was a boxer or something. Yeah, yeah,
• 2:24:20
  that's way back to the blood line. Yeah, So, so who's so
• 2:24:26
  solo? Well, Jim's the tribal air right, did announced that Solo was
• 2:24:35
  the heir. I think that's going to come into play somehow where he thinks
• 2:24:37
  that he's running the show now and then he's going to find out that he
• 2:24:41
  is not so, but maybe not for a while. Who is oh so?
• 2:24:48
  My theory is that Solo is the young lion who now sees Roman as
• 2:24:54
  the old wounded lion now that he's no longer champion, that that that god
• 2:24:58
  in Mote, that aura of invincibility is lost, and now Solo is seeing
• 2:25:03
  this as his opportunity and he's now going to seize power and rather than wait
• 2:25:09
  to become the tribal chief, the new tribal chief, he's gonna take it
• 2:25:15
  and by force, which is evolving him kicking out Jimmy, bringing in Tongo,
• 2:25:22
  and probably we'll probably see Jacob Fatu revealed probably within the next few weeks
• 2:25:26
  as well, and they'll be on that side. And obviously this past Monday
• 2:25:31
  on Raw they did they he hasn't been brought in yet, but they obviously
• 2:25:35
  had to bring it up to Jay, like, Yo, what do you
• 2:25:37
  think about your brother? He's like, he ain't got nothing to say now,
• 2:25:41
  Like you know, I try to get him out. You can tell
• 2:25:43
  he's affected by it, but he right, yeah, and there's nothing that
• 2:25:48
  he can but there's nothing he's gonna do. Yeah. He immediately kind of
• 2:25:52
  switched back to his match that night with I think they and never. I
• 2:25:56
  think they get back together sooner. Absolutely, No, I don't know they're
• 2:26:01
  gonna choose, but they'll be okay with each other or whatever. I think
• 2:26:05
  they'll I think they'll fully reunite, don't It'll be like some Sammy's and Kevin
• 2:26:13
  o Is type ship, that brotherly reunion. The only thing I think is
• 2:26:16
  really up for question is what the timetable is gonna be. We know at
• 2:26:20
  some point this is gonna be Roman, Jimmy and Jay on one side,
• 2:26:26
  Solo Tonga and Jacob Fatu on the other side. I think the only real
• 2:26:31
  questions is where one where does the Rock fit into this at some point if
• 2:26:37
  he fits into factors into it is at all? Or is the Rock gonna
• 2:26:39
  just remain singularly focused on Cody And then at what point does Roman come back
• 2:26:48
  to play a role to to get involved in this. Do does it happen
• 2:26:52
  at SummerSlam going into it to where we get the three on three or do
• 2:26:58
  they slow drag this went out and where we get Jimmy and Jay reunited for
• 2:27:07
  SummerSlam to take on UH two members presumably of maybe Jacob and and Tonga,
• 2:27:15
  whilst UH solo maybe doing something else, maybe facing Cody for the world title
• 2:27:22
  at SummerSlam. I mean find out for world time for the WWE title at
• 2:27:26
  SummerSlam or something of that nature. I think that's really the only question is
• 2:27:30
  what the timetable is. I think we all pretty much see where this is
• 2:27:33
  going, and I'm here for I'm here for to for his redemption arc after
• 2:27:43
  three years of being a heel and when he does pop back up as that,
• 2:27:50
  you know, allow me to reintroduce myself. My name is Rome.
• 2:27:56
  That poppy he's going, he's gonna have a hell of a pop. He's
• 2:27:58
  gonna be in his appreciation phase. Yeah. I mean, I don't mind
• 2:28:05
  if we're gonna remake Infinity War, Endgame and Civil War. I just hope
• 2:28:09
  they don't do the Dark World. The Necklace is going to be the eighth
• 2:28:20
  about I don't want the Eternal's version of this. Oh god no. But
• 2:28:24
  I mean I remember when Haymon said we're in the third inning and I think
• 2:28:28
  we all thought at the time, and we all thought he was bullshitting well,
• 2:28:31
  we thought he meant Roman's title reign or whatever, but it might have
• 2:28:35
  meant the bloodline story. Like he's he's interested in this. Where is he
• 2:28:39
  gonna because he looks terrified and Solo right right? Does he find his way
• 2:28:45
  back to Roman and USOS somehow or is he like uhl by Solo or or
• 2:28:52
  the Rock or I'm you know that that's gonna be interesting to see what he
• 2:28:56
  because he's he's he's made a lot of people pissed off in the last couple
• 2:29:01
  of years, and now he doesn't have Roman anymore protect him. Yeah,
• 2:29:07
  And just as easily as we could see Paul going back with Roman inside with
• 2:29:11
  him, we could just as easily see him double cross Romanu to where Roman
• 2:29:16
  is down or vulnerable and reaching out to Paul for something and Paul just goes
• 2:29:22
  no. In size with Solo, we could Yeah, he's definitely a big
• 2:29:28
  wild card in this whole thing. You want to get us a whole nother
• 2:29:33
  year out of this ship. Who else? I believe they signed another person
• 2:29:37
  right from the family, Jacob Patsu. Uh. They're supposedly looking at Zillow
• 2:29:46
  Fat, which is like one of the Maga's sons. He is in Book
• 2:29:52
  of T's promotion, so I mean he's in the fold. Yeah, but
• 2:29:56
  I think he's still pretty green. It's so it's gonna be so awesome.
• 2:30:03
  Just when you think they couldn't like elevate this fucking storyline anymore, they fucking
• 2:30:09
  dial it. Family Tree was you know how many there are? I know
• 2:30:16
  we're gonna have a pay per view. Yeah, oh my god, Yes,
• 2:30:22
  Survivors. Serious, this year is gonna be lit. I can feel
• 2:30:24
  it. I can feel it. I mean build it up to see them
• 2:30:30
  finally bring some woman into this into this year. I agree something we need.
• 2:30:37
  We need females in the blood I absolutely agree, because it's going to
• 2:30:41
  waste. You could literally do an all female bloodlines stable at this point because
• 2:30:46
  you have enough of them. Hell, one of them is a general manager.
• 2:30:50
  I mean, ridiculous what they got they got, That's pretty much it.
• 2:30:58
  Do they still have? Timina doesn't work for the company anymore, does
• 2:31:01
  she? She's functionally retired. Yah, she's officially done it, but she
• 2:31:07
  said she's retired, but still like, add some females to the fucking bloodline.
• 2:31:15
  Every other stable has a female or females. Why can't you fucking Alpha
• 2:31:20
  Academy l W O H yeah Academy in WrestleMania fallout. Let's talk about the
• 2:31:33
  greatest damn thing that happened this past Monday on RAW And that's my boy,
• 2:31:39
  Chad Gable finally getting sick of Sammy's a is appropriating as bullshit and giving that
• 2:31:46
  man a German soup lex for the gods. O. Dude, that's fucking
• 2:31:52
  great. I'm so happy. I'm so happy to come you bitch. I
• 2:31:58
  had I had to find out the next day. That's how I found out.
• 2:32:05
  Man. I ain't had a fist pump moment like that and so damn
• 2:32:07
  long here for it. Dude. That's great, that's fucking great. I
• 2:32:15
  fucking love that ship. Yeah, I don't care. Y'all can cheer Sammy
• 2:32:20
  all y'all want. Ever since he came in and just swooped in and appropriated
• 2:32:24
  Chad gables whole damn storyline and road desh it to the icy title, I
• 2:32:30
  am fucking anti Sammy. Whoop his ass? Chad. It's fucking crazy.
• 2:32:41
  Hey, how do you guys want to talk about before we wrap this up?
• 2:32:45
  Let mean overall, like of WrestleMania as a whole. Overall, I
• 2:32:54
  mean it was a great show. It was a it's a experience. I
• 2:32:58
  think anybody who's a wrestling fan of any of any length of time I highly
• 2:33:03
  recommend, at some point in your life put it on your bucket list to
• 2:33:07
  go check out a WrestleMania, And especially now, I think now is it's
• 2:33:13
  about as good a time as ever to be to go check out WrestleMania,
• 2:33:18
  because there's so much more to do to it. This time is not It's
• 2:33:22
  not just like back in the day where it's like a single day event.
• 2:33:24
  You show up, you watch it, and you go home. It's not
• 2:33:26
  even like it was when they started to expand it, where you know,
• 2:33:30
  maybe a few things in for a couple of days. Now, pretty much
• 2:33:33
  WrestleMania Week becomes the center of the wrestling universe for that week, and there's
• 2:33:41
  so much stuff to do. No matter what kind of fan you are,
• 2:33:46
  no matter how long you've been in it, whether you're an old school or
• 2:33:50
  a new fan, no matter what age you are, no matter what demographic,
• 2:33:54
  there's something for you going on wherever WrestleMania is happening. That week and
• 2:33:58
  you can find more than enough stuff to occupy your time. I mean I
• 2:34:03
  got to do a ton of stuff that past week. Something's expected, something's
• 2:34:07
  unexpected, and I still didn't do everything that I wanted to do. I
• 2:34:15
  don't think you physically could have. I mean, I don't think. I
• 2:34:16
  don't think it's possible. No, it's it's it's it definitely isn't. They're
• 2:34:20
  so fucking much, and not just that you have to come I think so
• 2:34:26
  financially prepared. I mean, if you want to do all that kind of
• 2:34:31
  stuff too. I mean it's an expensive experience at the end of the day
• 2:34:35
  when it comes to food, parking, you know. Hotels, I don't
• 2:34:41
  know. I have no idea, Like how much higher hotels than airbnbs were
• 2:34:46
  compared to the normal rate. Oh, they were insanely inflated. I don't
• 2:34:52
  think those rooms are going for eighteen hundred to two thousand dollars for a five
• 2:34:58
  night's day now like they were during wrestleming a week. No, it takes
• 2:35:03
  I wouldn't, it doesn't. It does take money. I'm not going to
• 2:35:07
  sit there and say it's cheap, but it does take money. But you
• 2:35:09
  can mitigate it. If you plan, if you plan, if you do
• 2:35:13
  enough planning in advance, Like I'm I've spent a good grip of money,
• 2:35:18
  but even I could have saved a couple hundred bucks. Had I just booked
• 2:35:24
  some things, maybe a few weeks earlier, I could have seen you can
• 2:35:30
  get in. You could have gotten into the stadium a lot cheaper than we
• 2:35:33
  did. Also, of course it would have been much farther away, and
• 2:35:37
  you know, possibly behind a poll or something, right right, pretty much
• 2:35:43
  ways to cut out some cost here and there. Yeah, the one thing
• 2:35:48
  you can't, you know, the one thing that's kind of unavoidable is the
• 2:35:50
  tickets themselves. So I mean, I would say to anybody who's looking to
• 2:35:56
  book, start there. Yeah, put put the whatever your budget is,
• 2:36:01
  put the bulk of that towards trying to get probably the best seats that you're
• 2:36:05
  that you want without you know, going into financial ruin. But get the
• 2:36:11
  best seats that you can, and then plan out the rest of your trip.
• 2:36:18
  Yeah, because that's where you can say, save your money on the
• 2:36:20
  rest of the trip and then you know, blow your wide on some good
• 2:36:26
  WrestleMania seats and they don't necessarily have to be on the floor, like from
• 2:36:31
  what at least depending on the setup of the stadium, but from what I
• 2:36:35
  we could see on the floor, I don't know if those floor seats were
• 2:36:37
  necessarily the best depending on where you're Yeah, yeah, because you can't even
• 2:36:41
  planes, so basically you just got a row full of motherfuckers right in front
• 2:36:45
  of you. Yeah. So unless you happen to snatch like an aisle seat
• 2:36:48
  where you can you know, step out into the aisle and get a straight
• 2:36:52
  shot of the ring, if you're on the floor, you might not have
• 2:36:54
  the best seats unless you, again, are just made of money and you
• 2:36:58
  fucking get ringside seats. Hmmm, yeah, dude, I agree. I
• 2:37:07
  uh don't let don't let people pay advantage you for parking either, Like I
• 2:37:11
  paid thirty five for parking, and there were definitely other places charging like eighty
• 2:37:18
  bucks for parking. So there are people who and they were packed. There
• 2:37:22
  are people who paid that, and that's that's bananas. Because I left that
• 2:37:26
  parking lot turned around, I was like, yeah, I'm not doing this,
• 2:37:30
  and I went right to the Wells Fargo and there's plenty of parking,
• 2:37:33
  plenty of parking at the arena. But then again, for It's like me,
• 2:37:41
  yeah, that's not just that. Like me and Doyle are from you
• 2:37:45
  know, around the in or around the Philly area, So this isn't our
• 2:37:48
  fucking first rodeo either. So I mean Doyle obviously knows how to get there
• 2:37:52
  pretty cheap. I know where to park and not get you know, destroyed
• 2:37:56
  and raped by you know park now and I and I did it for three
• 2:38:01
  days in a row. I parked generally the same area three days in a
• 2:38:05
  row. And it's you know, it fucking sucks because I got a paid
• 2:38:09
  parking three days in a row. But I have the comfortability of my cars
• 2:38:13
  just right there. And we got out because I parked near the exit.
• 2:38:16
  We got out pretty fast. Uh uh. You know another thing is all
• 2:38:20
  our arenas are right there, like Wells Fargo, the baseball field, the
• 2:38:26
  football stadium, so everything's right there. So but you're not definitely help Yeah,
• 2:38:31
  that definitely helped. And that's that's not going to be the case everywhere
• 2:38:35
  you go. Uh. For me, this this was on my bucket list,
• 2:38:41
  like, like you know, ever since I watched start watching wrestling,
• 2:38:45
  I was like, I need to go to a WrestleMania, like at least
• 2:38:46
  once in my life like this is something I need to do, like I
• 2:38:52
  want to go and then like as the years would go, I felt the
• 2:38:56
  window was closing. And the window that I'm talking about is a list,
• 2:39:05
  a list of superstars who are either A still live or B still on the
• 2:39:11
  active roster. You know. Don't don't get me wrong, I love all
• 2:39:16
  the current superstars we have now, all the younger talent. But you know,
• 2:39:20
  I've never seen the Rock like in person, Like I've won so many
• 2:39:24
  wrestling events, but I've always to somehow just I never got to see the
• 2:39:28
  Rock. I never got to see Sam Punk. I got to see The
• 2:39:33
  Rock three nights in a row like that. That just blows my mind because
• 2:39:37
  I never I don't think I'd ever get a chance like that. And and
• 2:39:41
  in wrestling period, even when when he was on the roster full time,
• 2:39:46
  I think anybody could get Rock three nights in a row. And you know,
• 2:39:50
  also the other factor was as the years would go back, when we
• 2:39:56
  still had one night of WrestleMania, WrestleMania was longer, I believe, and
• 2:40:03
  I was always like, oh my god, I don't know if I could
• 2:40:05
  be there for that long because the you know, when they were one night
• 2:40:09
  they were they just seemed so long and so packed with matches. Yeah,
• 2:40:18
  yeah, so so. But we got to do it back to back,
• 2:40:22
  like night to night like and it was weird because, like we talked about
• 2:40:26
  earlier, like you don't there isn't like many things you could do like that
• 2:40:30
  back to back, And it was such a weird feeling just coming back to
• 2:40:35
  the arena just a day later and then back to another arena, and you
• 2:40:39
  know, the following day, it was just like so much wrestling, and
• 2:40:45
  like by Sunday my voice was shot. Monday. I did what I could.
• 2:40:52
  Uh, you know, I I enjoyed the food. The food wasn't
• 2:40:58
  bad. I I have really no complaints except price wise, but quality of
• 2:41:01
  food was fine. Even the little Caesars pizza I got, I was okay
• 2:41:05
  with. And I'm not a little Caesars guy, but uh, for Stadium
• 2:41:09
  pizza, it was all right. Yeah, I appreciate for two cans of
• 2:41:16
  fucking Crown Apple peach t Yes, I believe that now. Now, I
• 2:41:24
  forgot to bring this up in the beginning of the show. But like the
• 2:41:26
  difference between Night one and Night two is night two. I pregame before I
• 2:41:30
  went in and I had about eight beers by the time you guys start.
• 2:41:35
  You guys rolled in, and I was I got Arnold Palmer, Yeah,
• 2:41:41
  which nineteen twenty out cans as opposed to a little twelve ounce fuckers for the
• 2:41:46
  Crown peaches. Yeah, I almost snuck a I got I almost got a
• 2:41:52
  beer in. Uh. On Sunday, I almost got one in, but
• 2:41:56
  they they got me, but they didn't get my HOGI you know, I
• 2:42:00
  brought a big samich and apt cannapringles, so they didn't get that. But
• 2:42:03
  I'm trying to think of what I snuck in on Monday night raw because I
• 2:42:09
  was always sneaking shit at food and whatnot. But yeah, because there's this
• 2:42:15
  ridiculous crisis. Man, this is fucking ridiculous. I remember I chugged two
• 2:42:18
  beers before I went in for raw. Chugged it pretty quick. I was
• 2:42:22
  like real quick. Stone called Steve Austin, you know, just tossing Andrews,
• 2:42:28
  just tossing me beers like she was the ref at the fucking side of
• 2:42:31
  the ring. Chug him before I go in. So with that being said,
• 2:42:37
  yeah, now that we have experienced a WrestleMania, do you want to
• 2:42:45
  do it again, not saying immediately next year, but no, no,
• 2:42:48
  no, I couldn't do back back. Do you feel like I gotta I
• 2:42:52
  gotta do it again before it's all said and done, you know, Like
• 2:42:56
  I said, I guess for me, it was depending on what's for stars
• 2:43:00
  are going to be there, because I don't think we'll get to see the
• 2:43:03
  undertaker of the Rock and see it all at the same WrestleMania again. So
• 2:43:07
  if maybe, like if we're not here, I mean, it's gonna be
• 2:43:11
  a long time before they come back here. But if they, let's say
• 2:43:15
  they go to maybe not because the city has already said that like, oh
• 2:43:20
  we will totally. I mean obviously they're not going to do it next year
• 2:43:24
  or maybe even the year after that for a decade whatever. But apparently Philly's
• 2:43:28
  gonna bid again. Yeah, but I think they said over two hundred million
• 2:43:35
  dollars into the local economy, which is insane. Yeah, so I think
• 2:43:39
  they're quite pleased, yeah, and are going to be and I think they're
• 2:43:45
  gonna be again. Okay, So I've also said maybe we'll start doing them
• 2:43:50
  in late April early So with that said, then yes, if they come
• 2:43:56
  back here, absolutely one. Late April opens up more cities to bid,
• 2:44:01
  which will turn eighty five yesterday it was seventy five today. You know what
• 2:44:07
  a difference two weeks make. Exactly you can do. You can do late
• 2:44:09
  April at you know, Medlife Stadium, you can do late April at whatever
• 2:44:16
  the new Bill Stadium is that's supposedly being built. Not to mention, you
• 2:44:20
  know, wants to go to Buffalo for a weekend. I mean if they
• 2:44:26
  bid, well, I'm all from ww's perspective, not necessarily from the fans
• 2:44:31
  perspective, but you know that's those are. It opens up far more options
• 2:44:37
  being later in the year. Not to mention that not just here in the
• 2:44:41
  States, internationally, sure, you know factor in. I mean John Cena
• 2:44:46
  already promised the UK or wrestleman, right, they're gonna have to get there
• 2:44:52
  at some point. Kind of shocked if the Saudis don't don't try to get
• 2:44:58
  one. Yeah, I would try, yes, succeed. I would be
• 2:45:05
  shocked if we ever got an actual wrestling. If they're paying like fifty million
• 2:45:09
  pop for these uh these every pay per view they do, sure, but
• 2:45:15
  we're also here's five here's half a billion for WrestleMania. I think I think
• 2:45:20
  uh Nick con would be derelicting his duty as the CEO of a corporation.
• 2:45:26
  Yeah, they would have to. Yeah, they'd have to obscenely overpay for
• 2:45:31
  it because I don't know right Well, what I'm saying is the we we
• 2:45:37
  saw how how the fans reacted to the videos that they showed. Well,
• 2:45:43
  yes, so that's what I mean by obscene the over paying. If they
• 2:45:46
  took WrestleMania at to Saudi Arabia, that would incur a significant amount of negative
• 2:45:52
  press. I think that was a Philly thing. No offense to Davenport,
• 2:45:58
  Iowa. But I don't think they're I don't think they have the gumption.
• 2:46:01
  You know. It's like a Philly will boo anything. Yeah, But I
• 2:46:07
  honestly I get that. I don't think it was just a Philly thing.
• 2:46:09
  I think that was more of an American thing. Like honestly, I think
• 2:46:13
  anywhere in the country if that was put up there, it would have gotten
• 2:46:18
  the same It would get probably the same reaction, I think, especially give
• 2:46:24
  the American folks more credit than I would. But I hope so that's a
• 2:46:28
  good sign. No, I think I think I'm giving Americas the proper credit
• 2:46:31
  that they hate the funk out the brown people over there in that part of
• 2:46:35
  the world. I think I'm giving them the exact credit that they deserve,
• 2:46:41
  just the very one of the fact that they even have that WWE experience and
• 2:46:46
  is it yeah, like that that's there and America's are just like and they're
• 2:46:54
  trying to promote it, like, hey, go check this thing out,
• 2:46:56
  and then the America is collectively like fuck you fuck though over here for that
• 2:47:00
  bullshit. So imagine that they announced Russell Maania forty five and Saudi Arabia.
• 2:47:07
  I think that ship would get the biggest of booze. Wherever they announced that
• 2:47:13
  ship at, we'd probably still do money, probably because at the end of
• 2:47:16
  the day, it's fucking WrestleMania, so somebody's going to show the fuck up
• 2:47:20
  for it. But it's gonna be a whole lot of negative press around that
• 2:47:24
  ship too. This ain't like Crown jewel or things that we kind of see
• 2:47:26
  as Saudi exclusive events. Wresseleia. I mean, they're actively engaged in sports
• 2:47:35
  washing, right, So they're they're they're they've they've taken over the PGA,
• 2:47:39
  right, they're trying to be like, oh, look, we're we're involved
• 2:47:41
  in these normal things. We're not killing our own citizens or start. They
• 2:47:45
  didn't move. Yeah, but they haven't moved the masters from Augusta to fucking
• 2:47:48
  Saudi Arabia. They know, I know they haven't. But think of how
• 2:47:50
  different things are than they were ten years ago, and then think about what
• 2:47:54
  another ten years of this is gonna do. I'm just saying it's it's not
• 2:48:00
  I don't think it's a crazy I don't disagree with anything you're saying, dragon,
• 2:48:05
  but I'm just saying I think the it's a non zero number. The
• 2:48:09
  chances of that happen is all I'm saying. Sure, and I agree that,
• 2:48:13
  yeah, it's it's not completely impossible, but I do think that it's
• 2:48:22
  extremely unlikely that we would see it. And maybe I'm looking at it through
• 2:48:26
  twenty twenty four lenses, and yes, agreed, by twenty thirty things could
• 2:48:31
  look very different. But I think part of the reason why Saudi Rabi has
• 2:48:37
  been able to get away with the sports washing that they have been doing is
• 2:48:41
  because they haven't touched too many things that are actual Western or American institutions.
• 2:48:48
  They've just gotten their hands in there and just added their own version of it.
• 2:48:54
  Like they got into the PGA and they have their own events. They
• 2:48:58
  haven't tried to take the Masters to Saudi Arabia. They got into, you
• 2:49:03
  know, with sports entertainment, and they have Crown Jewel, which is their
• 2:49:07
  thing. They haven't tried to say, hey, bring WrestleMania here. If
• 2:49:11
  anything, I think they would probably be more likely to try something like the
• 2:49:16
  Rumble first or SummerSlam, like try another already established they're doing, not that
• 2:49:22
  it's on par with that, but they're already doing SmackDown the night before from
• 2:49:26
  there also now instead yeah, instead of giving us a tape delay or a
• 2:49:33
  backstage segment heavy episode of SmackDown, which I guess for the sake of the
• 2:49:39
  program is good. But I mean it doesn't all happen at once, you
• 2:49:43
  know, that is true. Little little bit here, a little bit there,
• 2:49:48
  little baby steps here, and they need a lit a little bit and
• 2:49:50
  yeah, years from now, we could be singing, and then a couple
• 2:49:54
  of years maybe Raw is also there and it becomes a four day thing,
• 2:50:00
  and then maybe a couple of years after that SummerSlam is there, and you
• 2:50:03
  know, I don't know, Yeah you could, yeah, you're you're not
• 2:50:07
  wrong in that regard. They could be one of those things where over time,
• 2:50:11
  like like like you said, ten years from now, we could be
• 2:50:13
  singing a completely different No, I don't think any forty three will be there,
• 2:50:18
  but WrestleMania fifty three might. Yeah, that is very possible in the
• 2:50:24
  meantime though, as long as the motherfuckers are still here in the States.
• 2:50:28
  I think depending on the location. Yeah, that Yeah, that's could be
• 2:50:35
  worked out reasonably to where I can try to mitigate some of the costs.
• 2:50:39
  I would definitely not be opposed to attending another WrestleMania, like they're gonna do
• 2:50:45
  Vegas if not right, Yeah, and Vegas is the exact one that I
• 2:50:48
  was thinking of that I can think I could make it. I can make
• 2:50:52
  an attempt at Vegas just because I have family out there, so I can
• 2:50:56
  mitigate the cost of lodging by staying with my I would win my tickets at
• 2:51:03
  the craps table. That's what I would do. I would make the trip
• 2:51:05
  pay for itself. Yeah, that that's the one thing that's the one I
• 2:51:09
  could probably pull off. Maybe I could maybe reach for another California once I
• 2:51:15
  do have a brother that lives in l A too, so that would maybe
• 2:51:18
  I could reach well, you know, LA is gonna come up on the
• 2:51:22
  wheel probably at least once a decade. Yeah, especially with that fucking brand
• 2:51:28
  new huge stay. Oh yeah, so far yeah yeah yeah, so far
• 2:51:35
  was last year. It's getting late. Yeah, do you guys want to
• 2:51:45
  play anything before we go? Nothing? Off the top of my head,
• 2:51:50
  just as always, I can find me in the discord and I said it
• 2:51:54
  last episode and I'll say it again PCW Instagram is coming. Oh yes,
• 2:52:01
  yes, yes, uh Doyle, I don't play anything. Yeah, and
• 2:52:07
  I'm in the discords and like the Facebook page cool and uh yeah. And
• 2:52:13
  the Lakers just want to play in game teams that are actually going to make
• 2:52:18
  the playoffs and don't have to do that. I mean, had they not
• 2:52:22
  been a playing for me, we've been the a C. So we are
• 2:52:24
  our a legitimate playoff team. Okay, all right, but that said,
• 2:52:30
  my name is We're probably about to go home playing the fucking Nuggets in the
• 2:52:33
  first round. But and I can woo again, you are the worlds dumbest
