Get ready for the political sensation with super host and
0:16
news breaker Preston Olsen. Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and
0:23
gentlemen, welcome to Preston Super Show.
0:28
Thank you for joining me. This is the 55th installment of
0:34
the Super News and you can listen to over 500 episodes of
0:41
Preston Super Show across all podcast platforms.
0:48
Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's show will feature the NFL games
0:54
that happened on Friday night, with a preview of Saturday's
0:59
games up to Sunday's action, as well as did WWE Evolve.
1:07
A recap from Wednesday and Friday night's Smack Down
1:13
results were Joe Perry. You've heard him on the show
1:18
before. The man himself was in
1:21
attendance in Montreal, QC, Canada.
1:30
We will take a look at that first game that is fresh in my
1:34
mind and that was a interesting game.
1:38
It was going very good until Lion safety Maurice Norris had
1:45
to be taken off the field in an ambulance.
1:49
And the game was very physical up until that point.
1:53
And I believe it was just time to end it.
1:56
Better to end it right there. Don't let any bad blood boil
2:00
over. Anybody out there trying to get
2:03
retribution, just put it to rest.
2:05
Now in the pre season, both teams come together in a circle
2:11
in the middle of the field and they pray.
2:15
And the game was officially suspended.
2:18
And this all comes after the Lions took the lead.
2:22
The score was 17 to 10 when the game was called.
2:26
So please pray for Maurice Norris, the Lion's safety who
2:32
took that nasty hit. And they didn't want to show,
2:37
you know, the replay. And I was very happy about that.
2:40
But hopefully he can make a solid return to the NFL.
2:47
But it's so much bigger than football, and we have to keep a
2:51
human element in mind. When tragedies happened, at
2:57
first, the Lions came out very soft, OK, sidestepping
3:03
everything that happened, nothing to do with anybody
3:07
getting hurt. This was early on in the game.
3:10
The Lions came out soft. Injury came late in the game
3:15
when, you know, there wasn't much time.
3:18
Anyways, It was the fourth quarter.
3:20
So the Lions come out very soft, very slow.
3:25
They look like, oh, you know, the road trip kind of messed
3:30
with them a little bit. And the Falcons were hanging
3:33
tough and more than likely would have rallied with some of their
3:39
backups. Kyle Allen, the Lions
3:45
quarterback that played in this game because most of their
3:49
starters did not play, went seven for eight for 120 yards
3:54
and two touchdowns. On the flip side, Atlantis
3:57
quarterback, you're talking about Easton Stick.
4:01
This is a guy that's moved around a little bit.
4:04
He went 15 for 18149 yards passing and a touchdown.
4:11
What I liked about this game was that both teams found a rhythm.
4:19
There was rhythm on the field. At one point all of the Falcons
4:23
receivers were getting open and the running backs were hitting
4:27
the lanes. It was a really good game.
4:31
Then you look over at the defense, and I don't think the
4:37
defense got a lot of credit from either team, but the Atlanta
4:42
Falcons defense put together a pretty good performance up until
4:47
that point. They were very physical on the
4:51
defensive side of the ball, and I want to circle a player here,
4:57
spotlight a player. DeMarco Hellems at safety made
5:04
three tackles in this game, two solo, one assisted.
5:09
But he also broke up a lot of what the Detroit Lions were
5:16
wanting to do when he was in the game.
5:20
So that was something interesting to see.
5:22
He was very notable, making some big hits that I felt like kind
5:30
of boded well for this team. And everybody talks about the
5:35
offense, but when you're looking at the defensive side of the
5:38
ball, that's where you tend to find the opportunist.
5:44
What I did like from the Lions in that game was how Allen was
5:51
throwing the ball up on some of those shoulder routes.
5:58
And they were easy catches, too. He had a very good receiver
6:05
here. Jackson Meeks, who I believe is
6:09
going to fit in nicely with the Detroit Lions, had three catches
6:15
on 4 targets for 78 yards and a touchdown, and his longest catch
6:21
was for 68 yards. So I got to show the Lion some
6:25
love there because I believe they did find themselves a
6:29
pretty good receiver here for the Falcons.
6:32
It was just by committee. I think there's a lot to pluck
6:35
from there. Dylan Drummond had eight catches
6:42
for 63 yards, so you could see that they were working down the
6:49
field, they were attacking. There was a drive they came up
6:53
empty on otherwise that scores a little bit closer before they
6:58
call the game and suspend it due to the injury, which I believe
7:03
is is right. That's right to do.
7:07
All right, let's pick it up here with the Cleveland Browns versus
7:12
the Carolina Panthers. The Browns end up defeating the
7:16
Panthers 30 to 10. Chador Sanders had himself a
7:20
game 14 for 23. Passing early on looked
7:27
terrible. Everybody was ready to throw in
7:30
the towel on them. All of a sudden he's Lightning
7:33
McQueen and he was lighting it up for 138 yards passing and two
7:40
touchdowns. But they were basically gimmies
7:43
against the Panthers defense that look confused.
7:47
You know, we talked about it yesterday on the last podcast.
7:51
Hey, the Panthers will come out there.
7:52
They have an opportunity to kind of set the tone, but they
7:57
didn't. Their defense was weak and the
8:00
Browns kind of pushed them around a little bit.
8:03
I think there was some guys on the Browns that we're getting
8:07
open too easily. You know, like the tight ends
8:11
were getting open easily for the Browns.
8:14
Not a good scene for the Panthers right now.
8:16
Bryce Young, he did come in. And you know, the interesting
8:22
thing about that was when he was in there, it looked like, OK,
8:27
they have it figured out. As soon as he came out of there,
8:31
oh, that's going to be a problem.
8:33
You know, so it's like if you have Bryce Young in there and
8:37
you play teams like the Browns, then, yeah, I could see you, you
8:42
know, potentially winning a handful of games this year.
8:49
You know, that that makes sense. He went 4 for six for 58 yards
8:54
in a touchdown on the drive. He was sacked one time.
8:59
And then, you know, that's all they needed to see that.
9:01
You know, he has, and he's the guy.
9:04
Then we can take a look at the next game, the Washington
9:09
Commanders versus the New England Patriots.
9:13
And look, the Patriots were not underdogs.
9:17
They were not, you know, and they were not underdogs for a
9:21
reason. They won 48 to 18.
9:26
Drake May and the Patriots were absolutely on point.
9:34
Washington had some bright spots.
9:38
I mean, they scored all the way through the game.
9:43
They just faltered early on to slow down what the Patriots were
9:48
doing. It seemed like the Patriots had
9:51
a lot of plays that they just needed to run, that they just
9:58
have a lot in their playbook that they got to figure out
10:01
what's good. And I think they did in this
10:04
game. I think they figured out a lot
10:05
of what's actually good and both teams got a lot of work in.
10:11
So it's not about the final score.
10:13
That's a little bit of a misnomer.
10:16
But like I said, the over that's appealing.
10:20
You know, that was appealing in, you know, the Washington
10:24
Commanders being in that game didn't make a lot of sense.
10:28
You had Josh Johnson, who was 15 for 22173 yards passing a
10:36
touchdown in an interception. Not much happening.
10:39
Then you add on New England side Ben Woodridge, Joshua Dobbs, but
10:46
focus on Drake May. He comes out there 3 for five,
10:50
just a simple drive, but he look like, you know, hey, he's going
10:57
to be all right and he adds up running, you know, a touchdown
11:04
in. Then there's Joshua Dobbs, who
11:08
I'm still a fan of his, I believe he has a lot of
11:11
potential and he goes 5 for 1245 yards passing and not much else,
11:21
but he got a little bit of work in.
11:24
Look at Ben Wooldridge, 9 for 12, 132 yards passing and a
11:33
touchdown. So now we have to look and see
11:38
and say, you know what, they got something here and Ben
11:42
Wooldridge at rookie that they can develop.
11:47
And this Patriots team is a very young team, some veterans
11:52
sprinkled in. We'll see who else they bring
11:55
in, but they're going to be able, in my opinion, to play
12:00
upset this year. That's my prediction for the New
12:05
England Patriots. Let's take a look at Saturday's
12:11
games. Noon kickoff, the New York
12:15
Giants are up against the Buffalo Bills.
12:21
The Bills are favorites here -3 on the spread total at 36 1/2.
12:29
It's going to be good weather, 85° here.
12:32
Nice warm day in the Buffalo, NY.
12:36
I know they appreciate that this game will be played at Orchard
12:41
Park, NY, and I think that the way it sizes up right now, the
12:51
Giants will surprise the Bills in this game.
12:58
And maybe not a big surprise, right?
13:01
But at plus 1:30 on the money line, there's value there.
13:06
But I like over 36 1/2 is the best bet for that game.
13:13
Next up, we got the Houston Texans for some Minnesota
13:19
Vikings. I think with everything going on
13:25
in Minnesota this year, the people are relying on their team
13:32
more than ever in my opinion. Total set at 37 1/2 Minnesota
13:38
the -3 favorites. I still think the Texans are,
13:43
you know, better team on paper no matter how you slice it.
13:48
But for this game, you know, with the Minnesota Vikings
13:53
losing Jordan Haddison for a while due to the suspension,
13:58
they got a lot of guys questionable coming into the
14:00
year. Probably not going to see much
14:03
action from a lot of their key players.
14:05
I like the Texans as the underdogs.
14:08
Plus three on the spread. We'll see if it grows before
14:11
kickoff at three, but the total of 37 1/2 is kind of a wash to
14:19
me. The starters won't play long
14:21
enough. Plus 145 underdogs Houston
14:25
Texans. The only problem with that is
14:28
the momentum on the road. You know, it just I don't know
14:32
if it's going to be there in this game for the Texans.
14:35
I like the spread. Keep it close and you know, it
14:40
falls a little bit short. That seems like how this game's
14:44
going to go. Why I encourage live betting is
14:51
because in a game like this you're going to see if guys
14:56
confidence starts to plummet after, you know, they don't get
15:03
the catch or they come up short on 1st down.
15:08
You're going to see a lot of different things from reserve
15:13
players. So that's why I say you got to
15:15
be cautious. But the night games are where
15:19
it's all going to be going crazy, right?
15:21
Can't bet on every single thing. So you have the Dallas Cowboys
15:25
first, the LA Rams, and you know, the Rams being at home, I
15:30
think they're comfortable. I think the Cowboys come on the
15:33
road here. They play the starters a little
15:35
bit. They're done.
15:36
I think the the Rams win the game.
15:40
Dallas is the favorite -1 1/2 on the spread total, the 33 1/2, if
15:46
that interests you at all. It doesn't move the needle for
15:50
me. I don't think Dallas's defense
15:53
is all there together. I know the Rams are pretty beat
15:57
up already, but we'll see how it shakes out.
16:01
They got a fat sheet of questionable players.
16:05
I mean, there's no point in even going through that.
16:09
Matthew Stafford is the one you need to know.
16:11
He's not going to play tomorrow for the Cowboys.
16:15
You probably won't see Jake Ferguson at tight end.
16:20
You won't see Mecca Parsons. So you're going to, you know,
16:25
kind of have a reduced roster here.
16:28
But I think the Rams are going to have a lot of guys that
16:31
really want to earn a job. Not that the Cowboys don't, but
16:35
a lot of the Cowboys starters aren't going to play.
16:37
I like the Rams because I think more of their starters are going
16:41
to be involved. Up next, we have the Pittsburgh
16:46
Steelers. First, the Jacksonville Jaguars
16:49
at 6:00 PM Central time. The Jaguars are the -3 1/2
16:54
favorites, the total set at 36 1/2.
16:58
Pittsburgh here, the underdog, the plus 180 underdog.
17:03
You know, the problem I have with this game is I don't like
17:08
the optics. Lot of starters aren't going to
17:11
play. Like I said, I know it's going
17:12
to sound a little redundant tonight, but a lot of starters
17:15
are definitely not playing here. We got fat questionable list for
17:20
so many guys. There's no point playing.
17:22
I mean, wait it out here, but you're going to get a lot of
17:27
competition. So, you know, then the totals
17:31
start to look a little interesting, but I think 36 1/2
17:34
is a little bit too high because you're looking at the Pittsburgh
17:38
Steelers, who are known for their defense.
17:43
Their arsenal of quarterbacks is just, I don't know, you know,
17:49
you might have Aaron Rodgers do something interesting, but I
17:55
think ultimately Jacksonville is the team that you want Aaron
18:02
Rodgers to kind of let loose a little bit with.
18:06
The problem with Jacksonville's offense is they don't worry me
18:09
at all. And my gut feeling about the
18:12
Steelers coming into Jacksonville is that they're
18:17
really not going to be all there with it and that they're kind of
18:20
just enjoying the weather and, you know, the festivities.
18:24
That's kind of my idea about the Steelers in this game.
18:28
Plus 3 1/2 underdogs. You guys seem like maybe you're
18:33
just enjoying, you know, they get to see guys get their
18:36
chance, you know, and I think the Jaguars will be playing to
18:40
win. I think the Jaguars do win that
18:42
game. I don't think it's a very pretty
18:46
game, though. I think that's one that's maybe
18:50
actually a little bit more of a snoozer.
18:52
And both teams walk away from that like with a better idea of
18:59
who's going to make the 53 man roster because that's very
19:03
important. The next game is at a 6:30 PM
19:09
kick off. This is the Tennessee Titans
19:13
versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Titans are -3 favorites on
19:19
the spread. The total set at 32 1/2.
19:23
And you will see Tampa Bay as the plus 145 underdogs at home.
19:32
I don't agree with that. I think the Titans will be a
19:36
little bit shaky on the road here.
19:39
I like Tampa Bay to win that game, but plus three at -1 O 5
19:46
is a lot of value and I am kind of in that camp on that game.
19:54
Then we get the Green Bay Packers up against the New York
19:59
Jets and the Green Bay Packers. Are the -3 favorites total set
20:04
at 35 1/2? You're going to get all the
20:06
starters from the Packers. You're going to get whatever
20:10
starters can play from The Jets. And we will have ourselves a
20:16
great old football game right here, a Grand Ole on the NFL
20:21
Network. Seven o'clock 7:00 PM kick off.
20:25
You know what to do, tune into the Green Bay Packers in
20:28
Wisconsin. Lambeau Field, the place is
20:31
going to be packed. The Jets are the underdogs on
20:35
the road. Packers -190 favorites.
20:38
They're pretty deep. Packers are pretty deep team
20:41
here. I like the Packers just to
20:46
outright win. And I do think the total goes
20:50
over 35 1/2. I think that goes over.
20:52
But outright Packers winning -190 I do like that.
20:58
Normally I'm not looking at football, at playing those type
21:03
of long odds, but that's a situation that makes sense.
21:09
And I really like the Packers to win, not only because the
21:12
starters are playing and Matt Lafleur is on the hot seat.
21:16
Whether anybody likes it or not, he has to win this year.
21:20
He has to go pretty much to a Super Bowl, if not win the whole
21:24
thing to keep his job as well as the GM.
21:30
So you'll see the Packers really be going hard early on in this
21:34
game. I think you're going to see the
21:37
next evolution of the Green Bay Packers here.
21:41
But the big reason the outlier here is The Jets on the road and
21:47
just having so many problems with coaching and mismanagement.
21:53
Now they have to kind of rally and, you know, in preseason,
21:57
that's a little bit of a far away thing.
22:01
It's kind of far out. You know, get the Kansas City
22:04
Chiefs up next. They're on the road out in
22:07
Glendale, AZ. It's going to be a really good
22:11
game here against the Arizona Cardinals.
22:13
This is going to be fun fast. I think you're going to see the
22:16
Cardinals end up winning this game.
22:18
I think they're going to play some starters that's staying a
22:20
little bit longer, kind of help them maintain a lead.
22:24
Plus 125 underdog Cardinals here.
22:27
Total set of 39 1/2. You got to like it.
22:30
The spread. The Kansas City Chiefs are the
22:34
-3 favorites. It opened at -1 1/2.
22:38
I'm seeing this kind of 1 1/2 point movement here on the
22:43
lines. This is going to be a game that
22:48
the Cardinals are better suited for.
22:51
And the reason I say that is because the Chiefs are going
22:55
through some changes as well. And you're going to see a
22:58
different Chiefs team this year. That doesn't mean bad.
23:02
That could mean really good things for this Chiefs team.
23:08
So in this game, I like the Cardinals to win.
23:11
Next game up. I really like this game too.
23:14
This is a good match up. The Denver Broncos first, the
23:18
San Francisco 49ers, that's Saturday night tonight.
23:23
Broncos are really putting together something here.
23:27
I feel like they have something. I feel like they have a team.
23:31
I feel like they have a core group.
23:33
I don't know how deep they are. I think that becomes a little
23:36
bit of a problem later down the stretch, but I think you have a
23:40
Denver Broncos team that once again has a defense.
23:45
This season rises to the occasion.
23:48
You have a offense that knows how to score, that knows how to
23:53
move the ball, that understands what their roles are, that
23:57
really works their assignments well, right?
24:01
They get the homework done. Broncos are -7 favorites.
24:06
I agree with that. Total.
24:08
The 36 1/2, it's in San Francisco.
24:13
I like the over there. Broncos are -300 favorites to
24:18
win on the money line. I don't like that.
24:20
I like the over. I think that's a game where if
24:23
you're interested, there's value in the over if you're asking me
24:27
what I prefer. But if you get Bo Nicks in this
24:31
game and you should, yeah, I really like the Broncos to, you
24:37
know, put up some points and kind of push this thing ahead.
24:42
The Miami Dolphins play the Chicago Bears on Sunday noon
24:46
kickoff. This is one of two games on
24:51
Sunday. Duh.
24:53
Bears are -3 1/2 favorites on the spread.
24:57
The total is set at 34 1/2. I don't like any of that.
25:02
The Dolphins plus 3 1/2 on the spread.
25:06
I like that. I like the Dolphins as the
25:08
underdog. It's hard to win in that Chicago
25:12
environment. That field is very easy to get
25:17
worn down. You know, it wears down easily.
25:22
I'm looking at this Bears team and they have to show me
25:26
something. We know that Caleb Williams
25:28
won't even play in this game, to my understanding.
25:32
So I like the Dolphins to win that.
25:34
I like it to go under 34 1/2. I think the Bears are going to
25:38
realize that they don't have much a quarterback.
25:41
I think they're going to realize that there's opportunities, but
25:46
in this game, I just like the Dolphins.
25:48
I feel like they're going to be trying to put together a real
25:52
winning strategy here. Then you get the New Orleans
25:54
Saints first, the Los Angeles Chargers.
25:57
The Saints are going to come out firing, but the problem they
26:01
have is it's such a mixed bag of players.
26:04
You don't really know who's playing.
26:06
So the Los Angeles Chargers have shown us in that Hall of Fame
26:11
game. Remember they played in the Hall
26:13
of Fame game right off the bat against the Lions.
26:16
So we'll see that the Chargers are ready to go.
26:18
I like the chargers to win. They're minus one O 5 favorites.
26:22
They're actually the underdog right now.
26:25
Plus one on the spread for the Chargers total set at 36 1/2.
26:29
The game's in LA. So I don't see a reason to go
26:32
against the chargers here. I don't think the Saints are
26:34
ready, you know, in pre season to come out here and get a big
26:38
explosive when let's not forget the Saints went and lost four
26:45
games in a row to end the year. So I don't know about excitement
26:50
in the locker room or the mentality of the leadership
26:55
there, but it definitely wasn't good.
26:59
So that's the NFL coverage I have for you on this episode.
27:04
We're going to move into WWE Evolve results in my reactions
27:10
from this episode, which just dropped.
27:14
And you know, The funny thing about it was I was waiting for
27:16
this episode to drop. So right off the bat, we get the
27:22
WWE EVOLVE Women's Champion Kelly Armstrong versus Jen
27:29
Tyler, and she's wonderful. The Kelly Connection finishes
27:34
this match off Kelly Armstrong ends up winning.
27:38
She pins Gentila for the victory, but not before Gentila
27:43
really put on a good show here. Now let's not get carried away.
27:46
Gentila was doing excellent and she was doing what she needed to
27:50
do. This was a great performance.
27:53
I really liked this episode. There wasn't a lot of matches
27:58
but the matches they had were very entertaining.
28:01
So it reminds me of how NXT was doing just right before Shawn
28:08
Michaels took over and now NX TS in a better spot.
28:13
But this is kind of how Evolve is.
28:16
It's going to take some time and eventually they'll be in a
28:19
better spot. Then we get Carmen Petrovic.
28:24
She shows up and she states her claim to a title shot.
28:28
So now they're going to go at it next week.
28:31
That will be a good match. Wendy Chu was up against Carly
28:36
Bright and Wendy Chu continues to bring it.
28:40
She continues to put on a good performance and I think she's
28:44
the most loved superstar in there on that brand In the WWE.
28:50
Evolved for the WWEID superstars, Wendy Chu defeats
28:56
Carly Bright, good back and forth.
28:59
The match went for a while. I believe it was the longest one
29:04
of the night. Wendy Chu gets the win and we
29:08
are stepping again. Keanu Carver was up against
29:13
Bryce Donovan and the Vanity Project was there really to
29:18
backup Bryce Donovan. But really, it would have been
29:21
fun if they would have just had Keanu Carver versus all of the
29:25
Vanity Project, because they're making Keanu Carver to be like
29:30
the strongman Mark Henry type of character.
29:34
And I appreciate that. It's like an homage to Mark
29:36
Henry, this guy is, But they also have tried that in the past
29:42
with guys like Omas and stuff. So I think Keanu Carver is a
29:47
little bit different because he's a little bit more versatile
29:51
of an athlete. He's athletic in a lot of places
29:54
that big guys seem to take the foot off the gas a little bit.
30:00
So Keanu Carver was putting on for the big men and that's how
30:04
it's got to be done in the WWE. He's a rising superstar.
30:08
You'll continue to see him more in my opinion.
30:11
You should. I hope so.
30:13
And Bryce Donovan put on a good show too.
30:15
I think this was a very good back and forth.
30:18
I think they were evenly matched.
30:21
Not to take anything away from Bryce Donovan, but Keanu Carver
30:24
shined in this match was a great match and both of them got over
30:29
because of this. Having the main event on WWE
30:32
Evolve that would wrap up WWE Evolve, then WWE Smack Down was
30:40
really good. That was really good.
30:43
Let's talk about it. It is sad to see John Cena kind
30:48
of on his way out, but at least we're getting to see him go out
30:51
on his own terms now. That is what we all should be
30:55
focused on. So we got to see John Cena treat
31:00
Logan Paul, and Logan Paul's got to get a little bit better on
31:03
the microphone, man. He's starting to slip a little
31:05
bit. And, you know, he's starting to
31:08
mess up his cues a little bit, you know, And he's like, oh, the
31:12
moment's big. But Montreal is huge, dude.
31:15
I mean, that's the biggest city in Canada.
31:16
So what are you going to do, You know, could rattle anybody but
31:20
John Cena. I mean, that's the difference.
31:23
He's not shaking at all. He ran the show in there.
31:28
Don't even be confused. Then Cody Rhodes comes out there
31:32
to help, right? So he doesn't get beat down by
31:35
Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul. Then it's on.
31:40
It's going to be John Cena versus Logan Paul at Clash in
31:43
Paris. That's going to be good.
31:46
I'm excited for that. But they would agree to A tag
31:49
team match later that night. But we had to get to the action.
31:54
So it was time for the MFTS defeating the Motor City machine
32:00
guns. Good fight back and forth.
32:04
And you know, here's the thing, Talatonga and JC Mateo pick up
32:09
this big victory over Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley.
32:15
But it feels like Talatonga and JC Mateo working together,
32:22
reminiscent of Canaan Undertaker.
32:26
Literally. I'm, I'm going to give him the
32:28
credit on that. I like how they work together.
32:32
Good match. I don't have any, you know,
32:35
criticism. I'm not here to hate on anybody.
32:38
I had a lot of fun watching the match.
32:40
I thought it was really reminiscent of the Attitude Era.
32:46
John Cena and Cody Rhodes looking a lot like The Rock and
32:52
Stone Cold Steve Austin after their big match when they teamed
32:57
up. Then you've got Sami Zayn
33:01
interrupts solo, the United States champion solo and
33:07
Montreal is loving it. That's their guy.
33:09
Huge bop for Sammy, Him, Kevin Owens, Bret Hart, and I would
33:16
even say I would even go as far as saying Edge is also a guy who
33:23
would get a major pop and you know, that's just the way it
33:28
was. Also Owen Hart, of course, the
33:31
legendary Owen Hart. Rest in peace.
33:34
But Sami Zayn puts on, didn't he?
33:36
He's the workhorse. He's the guy everybody loves in
33:39
Canada and I think throughout the WWE Universe, Sami Zayn is
33:45
well respected. Anybody that's hating on Sami
33:49
Zayn doesn't really understand that you can't measure him the
33:55
same way you measure other superstars.
33:59
You can't he he's a totally different beast and I like that
34:03
about him. Sammy Zane would end up
34:06
defeating Solo to get to the match here in a non title match
34:11
by the way, the crowd is so loud.
34:14
Eventually they just had to wrap up the match and Sammy Zane ends
34:18
up winning. The crowd gets what they want.
34:20
And Sammy Zane, he gave the crowd everything they were
34:28
hoping for. Then we got Alexa Bliss and
34:33
Charlotte Flair having a big birthday bash.
34:38
They take it down to the ring. There's a cake.
34:40
Alexa Bliss gets her dial back, even gains a new one.
34:46
And Charlotte Flair kind of, you know, selling it.
34:51
I feel I felt like she was selling it.
34:53
But ultimately, Chelsea Green comes and ruins the party with
34:58
her secret. Hervis and Alba fire and Piper
35:06
Niven down by the ring to protect Chelsea Green couldn't
35:09
help against Charlotte Flair. And I'm telling you, Charlotte
35:13
Flair's starting to make big moves now.
35:16
She's starting to do it big. She's back in that groove, that
35:21
championship groove, and her and Alexa Bliss have the WWE Women's
35:29
Tag Team Championships, and I want to see a little bit more
35:34
from both of them together, working together.
35:37
But this Charlotte Flair defeating Chelsea Green was fun.
35:42
It was part of the story. You even got, you know, kind of
35:47
a food fight, right? Like, Chelsea Green gets her
35:50
face pushed into Alexa Bliss's birthday cake that Charlotte
35:55
Flair got her. So it was funny overall, but
35:58
Charlotte Flair locking in the figure Eight leg lock ended the
36:03
match. Green taps out, and then we were
36:05
moving on to the night's main event where the Undisputed WWE
36:12
Champion Cody Rhodes and John Cena defeated Logan Paul and
36:18
Drew McIntyre via disqualification.
36:22
They just couldn't help themselves.
36:24
And this goes to show you that it's not going to be about
36:28
fighting fair, right? You're not going to be able to
36:32
have this match where Cody Rhodes or John Cena or, you
36:38
know, Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre face each other in a
36:41
match that goes all the way and ends up being one where no one
36:46
breaks the rules. It's just not going to happen.
36:50
So by the end of this match, you're seeing everything takes
36:54
shape. John Cena was very in the
36:59
moment, right? He was taken over, he hit the
37:02
F5, he was bouncing off the ropes, you know, like the John
37:08
Cena of old. And Cody Rhodes I felt like was
37:12
the best supporting cast, which is weird because he's the
37:17
champion, right? But he's like the best
37:19
supporting cast for John Cena right now.
37:22
So it's a great match. And you know, Drew McIntyre in
37:25
this match makes sense. It's starting to become clearer.
37:28
The pitcher is becoming very clear why Drew McIntyre was
37:36
involved with the Jelly Roll match and is now involved in
37:41
John Cena and Cody Rhodes beef. Because Drew McIntyre has kind
37:46
of been shafted more than anybody else right now that's
37:51
actively wrestling. So I would look at Drew McIntyre
37:56
being someone who at some point John Cena is going to have to
38:01
face one-on-one and who is going to be coming for the belt from
38:07
Cody Rhodes at some point. I feel like as long as Drew
38:10
Mcintyre's there, at some point his path has to cross Cody
38:17
Rhodes for the championship. But it also is going to have to
38:21
cross John Cena's Legacy run where he has 11 more events to
38:28
do. So we shall see, folks.
38:30
It's been a lot of fun. Great match love.
38:33
Smack down. God bless Joe Perry and his
38:37
lady. They got to watch it ringside.
38:40
They were having a good time. I know they were.
38:42
I know you were. Let me share a few bits of happy
38:47
news with you before I take off for the night.
38:51
We have President Trump, who has brokered A historic peace deal
38:58
between Azerbaijan and Armenia. 35 years of hatred and bloodshed
39:09
and espionage is coming to an end.
39:13
These two countries can finally work to grow their countries,
39:20
pull their resources together to build their countries back to
39:25
full health, and then grow from there.
39:29
That's what we want to see. Peace through strength is the
39:34
way to go. Then we have to look at this
39:38
last bit of happy news. President Trump is looking to
39:42
decriminalize marijuana, remove it from that harsh scheduling
39:48
it's been given, where it's being equated to heroin and
39:53
fentanyl. Cannabis should not be in that
39:56
category. And I will also say to the
39:59
people that are against. Recreational marijuana or
40:03
medicinal marijuana, that the veterans are the ones asking for
40:08
it as well. These are people who have fought
40:12
and served this country so that we can have an opinion.
40:17
So we have to at some point appreciate that too.
40:20
I'm glad President Trump and Mike Tyson and other big name
40:26
people, big name company executives are speaking to the
40:29
president about this in making this happen.
40:32
This was something President Biden was supposed to do but
40:36
lost sight of. It was a simple directive.
40:39
Then we can move for full decriminalization.
40:43
And people are arguing that there's people smoking at the
40:49
parks. Well, I've never had that
40:50
problem. And I go to the park district
40:53
about once a week. I go for my walk.
40:56
I, you know, get my exercise and take in the fresh air and look
41:01
around at the scenery and, you know, it's right by the river in
41:05
the Indian caves. But I've never had that problem.
41:10
And it doesn't smell like weed. And I'm in a recreational state.
41:14
So if I'm not having that problem, it's hard for me to buy
41:17
that you're having that problem. What about when I have to stand
41:21
in line behind someone that has terrible body odor?
41:25
What are we supposed to do, ban people with body odor from going
41:28
to the store? Well, now you're opening the
41:32
door to things like that because you're saying no to recreational
41:37
marijuana means you're saying yes to the black market.
41:40
So you have to think about it. You really have to think about
41:44
it. Ladies and gentlemen, just like
41:47
the hands of time. I'm turning it over to you.
41:51
Good night and God bless Psalm 37.
41:55
Four KJB.
