WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:05.320
A little over six hours from now, wwe will be live for the Elimination

2
00:00:05.559 --> 00:00:11.119
Chamber from Perth, Australia. Some
of you may not even go to bed

3
00:00:11.119 --> 00:00:14.560
tonight. You may be watching this
stream right now and you're gonna stay up

4
00:00:14.679 --> 00:00:18.120
all night long and then you're gonna
watch the pay per view. I will

5
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:21.039
not be one of those people,
though. I have to get at least

6
00:00:21.399 --> 00:00:25.640
two hours of sleep, So we're
gonna get through this review tonight and then

7
00:00:25.679 --> 00:00:30.440
we have a very busy day coming
up tomorrow. But that meant that SmackDown

8
00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:35.240
tonight was a taped show because they
had to get over there to Australia,

9
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:39.960
so they taped two smackdowns last week
instead of one. And if you didn't

10
00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:44.240
know that coming in, you knew
it watching this show. If you are

11
00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:49.320
a fan of video packages, boy
do I have the show for you.

12
00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:55.640
You're gonna love this show tonight.
You got video packages galore. And the

13
00:00:55.679 --> 00:01:02.039
show ended with Randy Orton standing tall
heading to the Elimination Chamber tomorrow to crown

14
00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:04.959
a number one contender for the World
Heavyweight title. Will it be Randy Orton

15
00:01:06.280 --> 00:01:10.680
Wrestling, seth Rollins or WrestleMania.
That's a match we've seen before. Actually,

16
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:14.239
we've seen seth Rollins wrestle pretty much
everybody. I think most of the

17
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:18.519
people right in the elimination chamber match. I do believe Randy Orton. He's

18
00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:21.680
been in the ring Wood Drew McIntyre. He's been in the ring with Kevin

19
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:23.359
Owens. He's been in the ring
with Logan Paul. He's been in the

20
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:30.400
ring with Bobby Lashley. La Knight. Has he wrestled La Knight? La

21
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:34.879
Knight maybe the only one that he
has not wrestled. This was not a

22
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:38.480
terrible episode of SmackDown, but it
also wasn't very good. It was boring.

23
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:42.599
It was a boring show that if
you did not see it, you

24
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:51.079
did not miss a single thing.
A very skippable show is what tonight's SmackDown

25
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:55.760
was all about. The elimination chamber, which I will run down the matches

26
00:01:55.760 --> 00:02:00.959
for that a little bit later on
and give you my final predictions. But

27
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:04.560
first let's talk about this show.
This is your Friday Night SmackDown review at

28
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:08.479
is February twenty third, two thousand
and twenty four. I am the Solemn

29
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:14.639
Monster. Thank you for joining me
here tonight. You didn't think you were

30
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:17.439
going to get away with me not
doing a stream tonight, now, did

31
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:22.439
you? Of course I was going
to do a stream subscribe four hundred likes,

32
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:25.719
which might be a tall hill to
climb here, but four hundred likes

33
00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:30.520
is the goal for being the booker
tonight. I don't know, I don't

34
00:02:30.520 --> 00:02:32.120
know if we're going to get there, but hit that like button. Super

35
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:37.520
chats are open, and yes,
indeed, I am going to be live

36
00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:44.479
tomorrow for the Elimination Chamber review.
The plan is, as I've been telling

37
00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:47.319
you guys for over a week now, I'm going to be going live around

38
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:53.080
Noone, probably around twelve twelve fifteen
Eastern time tomorrow. In fact, I'm

39
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:57.719
going to get the page up for
the stream tomorrow as soon as I am

40
00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:00.400
done here. So when I am
done streaming here within twenty minutes or so

41
00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:06.919
of this stream ending, the page
will be up for the Elimination Chamber.

42
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:09.520
So that way, anybody who is
watching the show live or anybody who's staying

43
00:03:09.599 --> 00:03:15.439
up all night to watch it at
five am Eastern two am Pacific when it

44
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:20.479
begins, you guys can chat amongst
yourselves on the page if you would like

45
00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:23.439
to do so, so that'll be
the place to be. But again this

46
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:29.360
to update all of you wondering when
I will be live tomorrow. Now,

47
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.000
you know, you guys can fix
some lunch and you can tune into the

48
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:39.759
Elimination Chamber Review. The show tonight
open with two of the women who are

49
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:45.120
in the Women's Elimination Chamber Match.
Tomorrow, The Winter will challenge Ria Ripley

50
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:51.680
for the women's world title at WrestleMania. It was Live Morgan against Tiffany Stratton.

51
00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:55.439
You know, boy, Tiffany,
she must be exhausted. I mean,

52
00:03:55.479 --> 00:04:02.240
here's a woman who went from the
States all the way to Perth so

53
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:06.360
that she can be a part of
this press conference last night, and then

54
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:12.719
flies all the way back to the
US to be on SmackDown tonight. And

55
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:15.680
now this woman has to get on
a red eye and try to make it

56
00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:18.079
somehow back to Perth in time to
be part of the Women's Chamber Match.

57
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:21.839
Now she may have to defy the
laws of science to do that. That's

58
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:26.079
about a twenty four hour flight.
I'm not sure how she's going to get

59
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:30.839
back. But there she was on
SmackDown tonight. In the middle of the

60
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.319
ring, Bianca bell Air came out. She took a seat next to the

61
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:39.319
announcers, didn't do commentary, just
sat there to observe Live. Hit a

62
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:44.560
second rope diving code breaker for a
near fall. Tiffany tried the prettiest moonsalt

63
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:48.439
ever. Live escaped and Tiffany rolled
through. She was able to hit her

64
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:54.560
cartwheel Alabama slam for a near fall. Tiffany drag Lived back to the corner

65
00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:58.639
and attempted another moonsalt, but Lived
popped up and cut her off. And

66
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:03.040
then there was a very awkward spot
here where Live. She did a little

67
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:11.920
springboard twisting maneuver off the rope she
was trying for like a springboard twisting sunset

68
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:15.920
power bomb. The only thing is
Tiffany Stratt And I don't know if it

69
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:18.240
was because she was just nervous.
You know, it's a dangerous spot.

70
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:20.519
You know, you got to make
sure you know where you are at all

71
00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:25.560
times. You could take a rough
bump. She held onto the ropes a

72
00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:30.120
little too long, and so Liv
did her you know, her little flip,

73
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:31.879
and she was ready to hit the
power bomb. But Tiffany wasn't ready

74
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:35.040
to let go of the ropes,
and she took an extra two or three

75
00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:39.120
seconds and then Finally, when she
power bombed here, it just didn't look

76
00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:43.519
good, so that did not come
off the way they envisioned it. Things

77
00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:48.720
spilled outside and Tiffany ended up just
walking over and slapping Bianca right upside the

78
00:05:48.759 --> 00:05:53.519
head, just smacked her right in
the face and she got back in the

79
00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:56.959
race. She was trying to rile
her up and it worked because Bianca got

80
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:00.519
up on the apron of the referee
was holding her back. Live though in

81
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.360
the meantime behind the referee, Live
Morgan gets a roll up on Tiffany Stratton

82
00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:09.800
but there's no referee. Tiffany kicks
out Live, has to lunge forward,

83
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:15.240
knocks Bianca off the apron. Tiffany
then rolls up Live and picks up the

84
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:18.800
wind. The match was fine,
you know, outside of the awkward power

85
00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:24.759
bomb spot paint by number shit.
Not much really else to say about it

86
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:30.079
other than Tiffany. We didn't have
to worry about Tiffany crushing Live Morgan with

87
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:32.519
the prettiest moon Salt ever because she
got cut off. There was no moon

88
00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:38.000
salt, and as far as tomorrow, I suspect we'll get the prettiest moon

89
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:40.360
salt ever. I don't think she
could do it off one of the tops

90
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:44.079
of the pods though. I mean, maybe she could try it, I

91
00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:46.000
guess, but I don't know.
You don't really have that much room.

92
00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:48.920
Well, actually, you know what, they've raised the ceiling in these things,

93
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:53.399
haven't they now? I think they
have. They've raised the ceiling in

94
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:56.839
these chambers now. Or maybe she
can pull it off. You know,

95
00:06:56.879 --> 00:07:00.839
we're gonna get something crazy at least
one super stuid been crazy thing in either

96
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:03.920
of the Chamber matches tomorrow. If
I had to pick the one person who

97
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:06.720
I think is going to pull it
off in the women's match, it's gonna

98
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:14.600
be Tiffany Stratt. At backstage,
Drew McIntyre, who is the star of

99
00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:18.319
the show lately, Drew McIntyre was
talking to uh, I guess KLi I

100
00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:23.680
believe it was, and he said, you know, it's a critical point

101
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:29.160
in his career. The world title
needs him and he needs the world title,

102
00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:31.199
and if he didn't win it at
the Chamber and he didn't go on

103
00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:40.519
to WrestleMania, it was all just
as worthless as cm Punk's return to WWE.

104
00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:44.759
He's going to burn this man every
chance he gets for the next nine

105
00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:50.000
months until he comes back and he's
enjoying it. He seems to be enjoying

106
00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:56.199
himself. I love how he just
sticks it in there and every promo could

107
00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:59.600
have nothing to do with CM punt. He will happily go in there and

108
00:07:59.639 --> 00:08:05.360
bury CM Punk at every opportunity that
he has. So Bobby Lashley walked up,

109
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:07.959
and Bobby Lashley actually thought that was
very amusing. He was chuckling.

110
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:11.360
He said, he's been laughing at
all the different ways that Drew has been

111
00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:16.319
mocking CM Punk. The T shirt
that Drew was wearing with the tombstone on

112
00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:20.839
it, and he said, you
know, Punk came back with all this

113
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.199
fanfare, and then his first match
back he gets hurt. He says,

114
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:28.680
it's almost as funny as WrestleMania thirty
seven when Drew passed out in the hurt

115
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:37.759
lock and Lashley walked off and McIntyre
didn't seem very amused by that. We

116
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:43.519
had a video package, one of
many on this television show tonight. This

117
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:50.320
one aired. There's a vignette for
the new team of Ashanti Diodonis and Cedric

118
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:56.639
Alexander. They've done at least one
other vignette with them didn't err on TV,

119
00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:00.399
though, so this is the new
pairing that they're trying out. They're

120
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:05.120
a new team now giving it another
go with Cedric, which I don't mind

121
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:09.240
because Cedric is very talented, and
Cedric should be on TV doing something other

122
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:13.000
than dusting the man off every three
or four months and having him do the

123
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.240
job for somebody. It's nice for
them to try to come up with something

124
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:22.120
for these two guys. So Ashanti, I guess they were at his house

125
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:24.399
or they were one of their apartments
or whatever, and Ashanti is sitting there

126
00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:28.720
and Cedric is coming out, and
he's wearing different outfits because they're gonna go

127
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:33.360
out, and he's trying on different
clothing. He's wearing different outfits, and

128
00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:37.360
every time Ashanti's like, no,
no, no, that sucks, that

129
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:41.960
doesn't work, they put a graphic
up. Then finally that said several hours

130
00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:46.480
later and you could still hear them
bickering until Cedric walked out. He's wearing

131
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:50.759
leather pants and a vest. He's
doing his best the Hollywood Dave Batista impression

132
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:56.000
here or I guess Hollywood rock.
Yeah, just hit me that when Batista

133
00:09:56.039 --> 00:09:58.840
did the Hollywood gimmick, it might
have been a denim vest that he was

134
00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:01.840
wearing. But I don't know,
is that like the Hollywood gimmick? Because

135
00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:09.200
Rock also had the vest no shirt, and Batista also had the shades.

136
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:11.480
Like the Rock, he had the
vest and no shirt. I guess that's

137
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:16.960
officially the Hollywood gimmick, the Hollywood
attire. I guess that's what you wear.

138
00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:20.639
So he was wearing that, and
he didn't like the way he looked,

139
00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:24.600
but Ashanti said, that's it.
That's the money right there, that's

140
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:28.759
the money look. And finally they
left to go out. Kind of corny,

141
00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:33.480
but these are the types of character
building vignettes that you see all the

142
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:37.480
time in NXT. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. It's about character

143
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:39.600
building. They're gonna try something new
with these two. Is it gonna work

144
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:46.039
long term? Probably not if history
is any indication, no reflection on these

145
00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:48.879
two guys. But if history is
any indication, taking these two that they

146
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:54.960
had no plans for and sticking them
together probably is not going to work.

147
00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:58.320
But I could also recall a time
many years ago where there were two men

148
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:01.080
on the roster that WWE did know
what to do with, one of which

149
00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:05.159
was the real Jesse James. The
other one was Billy Gunn he was Rockabilly

150
00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:09.240
right. You know what a fucking
success that was. And they took these

151
00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:13.759
two guys completely at random, they
put them together and we ended up with

152
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:18.759
the New Age Outlaws. So you
know what, you never know, you

153
00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:24.279
never know. It's better than doing
nothing with them. Now. After that,

154
00:11:24.440 --> 00:11:31.679
Corey Graves introduced a recap video yet
another video for last week's segment,

155
00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:35.480
showing a replay of the Rock and
Roman Rains and the Rocks promo that closed

156
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:41.000
the show. Then they showed the
Bloodline interference on Monday in the match between

157
00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:46.000
Cody Rose and Drew McIntyre. Then
they showed Jimmy Usso coming out at the

158
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:54.200
end of the show and costing his
brother the Intercontinental title against Gunther. We

159
00:11:54.279 --> 00:12:00.440
come backstage live, but not really
live. Come backstage. Roman Rain is

160
00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:05.600
on the show. Everybody Roman Rains
is sitting in the Bloodline locker room.

161
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:09.519
Now you know it's a tape show
when you've got Roman Rains making a random

162
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:13.799
appearance on the show. Was never
advertised. They never even said the word

163
00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:18.320
Roman or Rains in the preview for
tonight's show, like they were gonna be

164
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:24.320
there. What does the Bloodline have
in store? There was no mention whatsoever

165
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:28.639
of the bloodline. But there was
Roman reins on the show two weeks in

166
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:33.279
a row. How rare is that
Jimmy was celebrating what happened on Raw to

167
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:37.639
Jay and Roman asked me, goes
uh, who told you to go to

168
00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:43.600
Raw? And Jimmy gets all nervous
and then he just openly snitches and says,

169
00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:48.639
Paul Hayman told me it was Paul
Hayman Man. He gave me the

170
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:50.960
play and I ran the play.
It was Paul. Paul told me to

171
00:12:50.960 --> 00:12:54.919
do it, and Roman laughed at
how fast. Jimmy threw Hayman under the

172
00:12:54.960 --> 00:13:00.879
bus there and stooged him off,
and then Roman says it was me.

173
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:05.879
He said, I quarterback, that
I called the play and Jimmy executed it

174
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:11.960
perfectly. Shout out to Ted Evans, by the way, who just gifted

175
00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:15.480
five channel memberships. I agree with
Ted, by the way, not enough

176
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:18.399
green in the chat tonight, so
Ted is doing his part to try to

177
00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:24.399
change that. Ted, Thank you. Paul Hayman entered the room and he

178
00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:31.159
informed Roman that Grayson Waller was there
tonight to see Roman, and Roman told

179
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:33.559
him to go send him, go
get him, go bring him in here

180
00:13:33.799 --> 00:13:39.080
as they cut the commercial. Now
the segment was in the show for a

181
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:41.120
reason, and not just to get
Grayson Waller in there. Later on,

182
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:46.759
something tells me, even though he
said he was the one who quarterback the

183
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:52.080
play, Roman Rains was not the
one who quarterbacked the play. Roman Rains

184
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:56.519
was not the one who told Jay
or Jimmy to go to Raw Monday night

185
00:13:56.679 --> 00:14:01.440
and cost his brother the Intercontinental time. Something tells me that we're going to

186
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:05.159
find out in due time that Roman
wanted to take credit for it, but

187
00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:09.720
it wasn't actually him who called the
play. Maybe it was a certain high

188
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:13.440
chief who called the play. Maybe
it was a certain high chief who has

189
00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:22.120
yet to acknowledge Roman Reigns, who
has yet to acknowledge his cousin. Could

190
00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:24.919
be a seed being planted. In
fact, I think that's exactly what it

191
00:14:24.960 --> 00:14:31.559
is. Then we had bron Breaker. Bron Breaker won half of the new

192
00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:37.720
NXT Tag Team Champions. It is
bron Breaker, it is Baron Corbin.

193
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:43.960
They won the titles in the finals
after the Dusty Classic or after the Dusty

194
00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:46.600
Classic, whatever it was. I've
seen the interaction, by the way,

195
00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:50.799
including on TV on Tuesday, between
bron and Baron and it's actually they got

196
00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:54.759
pretty good chemistry together. I will
say they're actually making a pretty good team.

197
00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:58.320
The problem is bron Breaker does not
belong in to tag team, so

198
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:03.840
it's not some that has any sort
of long term shelf life as far as

199
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:07.679
a team. But they had pretty
good chemistry together. But this was bron

200
00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:13.440
Breaker making his SmackDown in ring debut
against Dante En. Dante Chen was his

201
00:15:13.519 --> 00:15:18.159
victim tonight, Dante Chen from NXT. This did not last long, but

202
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:20.799
it lasted long enough to get brought
over as an absolute beast, which was

203
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:26.720
the entire point. Bron grabbed a
single leg, he slammed Chen down,

204
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:28.679
then he fired up. He had
a shoulder block at a Steiner line.

205
00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:33.759
The speed at which this man runs
the ropes and they even acknowledged it.

206
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:39.399
On commentary, Corey Grave said that
bron Breaker has been clocked at twenty three

207
00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:43.759
miles in out when he runs the
ropes. This fucking guy, I mean,

208
00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:46.480
back and forth and again. He's
not I want to say he's big,

209
00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:50.559
like he's six foot eight, three
fifty. He's not big big,

210
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.559
but he's a big guy. Right, He's a big guy. He's got

211
00:15:54.600 --> 00:15:58.000
some bulk. To him. It's
not like he's a tiny man. And

212
00:15:58.080 --> 00:16:00.759
the way that he you know,
he builds up that rate of speed and

213
00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:03.159
goes back and forth. It's scary. I don't want to be the referee

214
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:07.639
one day who's not paying attention and
takes one wrong step in his path.

215
00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:12.720
I don't want to be that guy, or a woman even worse, because

216
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:15.519
he ain't gonna be able to stop. He's gonna run you over and he's

217
00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:21.240
gonna keep going. I don't want
to be that person that Dante ended up

218
00:16:21.240 --> 00:16:26.480
on the apron and he attempted some
sort of springboard and move. Bron though,

219
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:30.559
caught him on the way down and
slammed him, and then bron backed

220
00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:33.000
up into the corner. He cut
that man in half with a spear,

221
00:16:34.159 --> 00:16:38.519
the best running spear in all of
wrestling. It's nothing new. I've been

222
00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:42.399
saying that for a long time.
It's been that way for I mean pretty

223
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:48.120
much his entire NXT run. There
hasn't been anybody that has come along and

224
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:53.960
made that move look as devastating since
Goldberg. Maybe Rhino. I'll throw Rhino

225
00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:59.200
in there. The gore was pretty
fucking cool, so I'll I'll say Rhyino

226
00:16:59.279 --> 00:17:03.639
The only reason I didn't of Rhino
is because Rhino was Rhino. Well,

227
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:07.359
I guess Rhino became a big deal
in ECW just after Goldberg got hot,

228
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:12.160
right, That probably wasn't until like
ninety nine two thousand with Rhino. Yeah,

229
00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:15.720
but that's how it goes. It
goes Goldberg, Rhino, bron You

230
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:21.599
have this huge gap in between Rhino
and bron And I know plenty of people

231
00:17:21.640 --> 00:17:25.400
have done the spear, Edge has
done it, and it mostly looks like

232
00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:30.680
shit. Roman Reigns does it.
It doesn't always look that great bron Breaker.

233
00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:34.559
It's the explosiveness that makes him so
scary and makes him so impressive.

234
00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:41.519
It's that explosiveness that I love about
this guy. He's fucking awesome, absolutely

235
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:45.319
great. See. The question is
not will bron Breaker one day main event

236
00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:52.519
WrestleMania. That's the wrong question.
The question is how many WrestleManias will bron

237
00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:57.079
Breaker made event? I don't know, more than one. I guarantee you

238
00:17:57.079 --> 00:18:03.000
it'll be more than one. And
speaking of wres Maane, oh Bobby Lashley.

239
00:18:03.319 --> 00:18:07.960
Yeah, Now, Bobby Lashley's spear
is nothing like bron Breaker's spear,

240
00:18:07.559 --> 00:18:12.039
and Bobby Lashley is a physically bigger
man than bron Breaker is. And I

241
00:18:12.079 --> 00:18:17.400
love Bobby Lashley, and I love
the way he does that little flip when

242
00:18:17.400 --> 00:18:19.079
he hits it, tries to make
it look a little more devastating, But

243
00:18:19.480 --> 00:18:25.240
even Bobby Lashley does not have anything
close to the explosiveness that bron Breaker does

244
00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:29.599
when it comes to that move.
So no, But we were talking about

245
00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:33.119
WrestleMania here, and I was thinking
about bron and it would be kind of

246
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:36.960
a waste for them to call him
up to the main roster six weeks before

247
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:41.559
WrestleMania and not have anything for him
to do at WrestleMania. Otherwise, why

248
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:44.880
not just wait until after WrestleMania.
Again, he's won half of the NXT

249
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:48.720
Tag Team champions. You could get
him to stand and deliver, and they

250
00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:52.799
could have waited and debuted him the
Raw after or the SmackDown after Wrestlemane.

251
00:18:53.319 --> 00:18:57.920
They chose to debut him six weeks
before WRESTLEMANE. Now, I think that

252
00:18:59.000 --> 00:19:02.680
he would be the perfect candidate to
win the Andre Battle Royal. The only

253
00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:07.759
problem is the Andre Battle Royal don't
mean shit. So I'm hoping he gets

254
00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:11.839
a match on one of the two
nights. And I now I don't know

255
00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:14.400
what his status is. I don't
know what brand he'll end up on.

256
00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:18.079
He was unsmacked down the last time
we saw him. I don't know what's

257
00:19:18.119 --> 00:19:22.000
going on with Seamus. There's been
talk about his contract. I don't really

258
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:26.680
see him going anywhere, and I'm
not sure what his contract status is exactly.

259
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:30.880
But if Seamus comes back before WrestleMania, I would love to see an

260
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:34.319
undercard match between Seamus and Broun Breaker. I think that would be a great

261
00:19:34.480 --> 00:19:40.920
I'd be a stiff match, but
I think Seamus and Braun would be a

262
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:44.880
fine idea for WrestleMania. Match for
Broun Breaker, if they don't have anything

263
00:19:44.880 --> 00:19:49.160
better for him to do, hopefully
they got something for him. In the

264
00:19:49.200 --> 00:19:55.640
back, Joaquin Wilde and Cruz del
Toro were chatting talking about how they could

265
00:19:55.680 --> 00:20:03.039
take out Legatodell Fantasma when elect Tre
Lopez walked up and she said the LWO

266
00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:07.559
was basically dead, which she's not
wrong, it basically is, and she

267
00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:11.599
pointed out that even Raymisterio, where's
he at right, He's been MIA for

268
00:20:11.640 --> 00:20:15.200
a while now. She told them
to make better choices with their loyalty next

269
00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:21.160
time. If they get a next
time, and you think, what does

270
00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:23.240
she mean by that? Now she
walked off. They got ambushed from behind

271
00:20:23.279 --> 00:20:30.519
by Angel and Humberto Santos Escobar then
arrived and told him that they betrayed him

272
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:34.279
and abandoned him and this was the
price that had to be paid, and

273
00:20:34.319 --> 00:20:38.480
then the heels got run off by
Carlito and Zelina Vega and some officials.

274
00:20:40.039 --> 00:20:45.480
They have since announced that on SmackDown
next week we are getting a street fight.

275
00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:51.599
It's gonna be Carlito going one on
one with Santos Escobar. They've already

276
00:20:51.599 --> 00:20:55.440
announced the street fight for Monday.
We're getting the New Day against imperiod,

277
00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:59.160
So we're gonna it's gonna be the
week of street fights in WWE next week.

278
00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:03.680
Balls in your core, now,
Tony Kahan, you don't want to

279
00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:07.319
tell Tony Kahn the WWE is doing
a couple of street fights next week.

280
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:10.960
We'll end up with a bloodbath on
Wednesday. Balls in his core. Let's

281
00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:14.640
see what he comes up with.
Now. You know, he's got to

282
00:21:14.680 --> 00:21:18.079
try to fight to get back that
Booker of the Year award that he missed

283
00:21:18.119 --> 00:21:23.400
out on this year. How much
furniture do you think was broken when he

284
00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:27.200
read the latest Observer, and he
saw that not only did he lose out

285
00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:32.880
on Booker of the Year to Triple
H Paul of K, but he lost

286
00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:40.519
out on Promoter of the Year to
the other con Nick Khn. I'm sure

287
00:21:40.519 --> 00:21:45.279
Tony wasn't happy about that. No, he was not happy about that.

288
00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:48.519
At least he stayed off Twitter though
there were no crazy tweets. I thought

289
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:52.319
for sure we were going to get
some kind of crazy tweet, but he

290
00:21:52.440 --> 00:21:57.039
controlled himself. Now the judgment day
was there tonight. They were at the

291
00:21:57.039 --> 00:22:02.799
gorilla position talking to Kayla, but
it was Dominic and JD McDonough who went

292
00:22:02.839 --> 00:22:04.839
out to the ring for a match
against the number one contenders for the tag

293
00:22:04.880 --> 00:22:11.680
team titles, Pete Dunn Tyler Bait. They challenged Finn Valor and Damian Priest

294
00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:18.680
tomorrow for the undisputed tag team titles. JD and Dominic worked a double team

295
00:22:18.759 --> 00:22:22.440
early on, but Bait escaped.
He tagged in Pete Dunn, who started

296
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:27.839
manipulating Dominic's joints. Bait tagged in, he was quickly dumped to the floor

297
00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:33.200
by a low bridge by McDonough.
Dominic then knocked Doune off the apron.

298
00:22:33.319 --> 00:22:36.720
JD had a soccer kick to Bait
from the apron that took us into the

299
00:22:36.720 --> 00:22:40.960
break. Later on, Bait gave
Dominic an airplane spin and he dumped him

300
00:22:40.960 --> 00:22:44.680
to the floor. McDonough attempted to
roll up on Bait, but he ended

301
00:22:44.759 --> 00:22:48.559
up in an airplane and spin himself. Done in bait, they did a

302
00:22:48.839 --> 00:22:53.359
German sup plex lariat combo. Dominic
broke up the fall. McDonagh guy standing

303
00:22:53.359 --> 00:22:57.480
Spanish fly on Done for a two
count and he went for a moon salt,

304
00:22:57.559 --> 00:23:02.160
but Pete got the knees up.
Things broke down. Dom hit a

305
00:23:02.200 --> 00:23:06.000
six y one to nine on Done. Bait was able to knock dom off

306
00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:10.559
the apron and then Done made a
tag. They hit the double Tyler driver

307
00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:14.200
on mcdonnet and they picked up the
win. After the match, here comes

308
00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:17.799
Finn Balor and Damian Priest. They
make their way down to the ring and

309
00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:22.240
just as they get into the ring, Bait and Done they slide out and

310
00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:26.720
they attack Dominic and mcdonoughh one more
time in the aisleway as they make their

311
00:23:26.880 --> 00:23:32.720
escape. The match itself was it
was fine. It was good, nothing

312
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:36.960
special, but they were setting the
table for what we can expect tomorrow.

313
00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:40.599
Bait and Done against Balor and Priest
is going to be a very good match.

314
00:23:40.640 --> 00:23:44.240
I'm not expecting a tag team title
change, but it's a fresh match

315
00:23:44.279 --> 00:23:47.559
that we have not seen before.
I am looking forward to it. As

316
00:23:47.559 --> 00:23:51.400
far as this match is concerned,
it, like I said, it pretty

317
00:23:51.440 --> 00:23:55.759
much just sort of set the table
for what we can expect tomorrow. But

318
00:23:56.039 --> 00:24:00.160
nothing more, nothing less. Now
backstage, Kevin Oh walked up to Logan

319
00:24:00.200 --> 00:24:04.400
Paul Grayson Waller in Austin Theory the
Evil Triangle, the Triangle of Terror.

320
00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:10.559
Here they were just standing around chatting
it up in the back and Owen showed

321
00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:12.359
up. He said, you know
what, Logan, I hope you bring

322
00:24:12.400 --> 00:24:17.319
those brass nuts with you to Australia
so that way I can take them again

323
00:24:17.319 --> 00:24:19.279
and punch you in the face with
them. Better. Yet, maybe you

324
00:24:19.319 --> 00:24:22.440
won't even make it into the country
because you'll be smuggling in the nuts.

325
00:24:22.440 --> 00:24:26.279
You'll get caught, they'll send you
back home. That would be even better.

326
00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:30.880
So then after he walked away,
Logan is standing there and he's looking

327
00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:34.160
at Theory and he's looking at Waller, and he has a very good point.

328
00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:38.440
He says, why didn't we just
jump the guy like the three of

329
00:24:38.519 --> 00:24:42.519
us, there were only one of
him. So then Paul Hayman shows up

330
00:24:42.640 --> 00:24:47.559
and he tells Waller that Roman Reigns
would like to see him now, and

331
00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:51.880
so off they went elsewhere. On
the back to Code of Kai was shown

332
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:55.480
limping in pain. She was being
helped to the trainer's room by a referee

333
00:24:55.480 --> 00:25:02.200
and by Nick Aldis. No explanation
provided see where this was going, but

334
00:25:02.279 --> 00:25:06.559
they didn't say anything more at that
point. Then we had the street profits

335
00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:10.519
against the Authors of Pain representing the
Final Testament, who were out there with

336
00:25:10.559 --> 00:25:17.559
Paul Ellering carrying cross and scarlet.
Ford and Akam kicked things off here and

337
00:25:17.599 --> 00:25:21.680
montes Ford tried to use his speed
acum, though too powerful for him.

338
00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:27.839
Ford tagged in Angelo Dawkins, who
found an opening and as AOP were regrouping

339
00:25:27.920 --> 00:25:33.319
outside the ring, Angelo Dawkins did
a flip dive out over the top rope,

340
00:25:33.400 --> 00:25:37.440
took out AOP, took us into
the commercial break. We come back

341
00:25:37.960 --> 00:25:42.240
and montes Ford is being dominated by
AOP. Eventually he was able to sidestep

342
00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:48.000
an attack by Razar. He made
the tag to Dawkins and the prophets hit

343
00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:51.839
a super Blockbuster only got a near
fall, though, when the count got

344
00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:56.599
broken up Ford and Akem they stayed
in the ring. Montes climbed up top.

345
00:25:56.400 --> 00:26:00.680
There were some distractions that led to
Carrying Cross knocking Ford off the top

346
00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:07.640
rope. Big brawl broke out on
the floor Carrying Cross and Lashly. We're

347
00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:12.799
getting into it, and he sends
Lashly elbow first into the casing the ring

348
00:26:12.839 --> 00:26:19.720
post casing. Cross then grabs a
chair and he smashes Lashly's arm against the

349
00:26:19.799 --> 00:26:26.480
casing with the chair. Meanwhile,
in the ring, aop hit their neck

350
00:26:26.480 --> 00:26:30.599
breaker power bomb combo on Monteze Ford
and they pinned him to win it.

351
00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:36.640
For the final testament, they needed
that win again. They need to rack

352
00:26:36.720 --> 00:26:40.960
up some wins, so it was
the right outcome. But this feud already

353
00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:44.720
feels dead in the water. I'm
sorry, it's not doing anything for me.

354
00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:48.799
It's really not naturally. I'm kind
of bummed because I was looking forward

355
00:26:48.839 --> 00:26:55.160
to a Heel Lashly Street Profits combo. The street profits have been babyfaced sinceince

356
00:26:55.240 --> 00:26:56.759
day one, and I thought,
you know what, a heel turned an

357
00:26:56.799 --> 00:27:02.880
attitude change might be good for him. But they're just Lashly in particular more

358
00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:06.880
than the profits. But Lashly is
just so damn over that the fans wouldn't

359
00:27:06.920 --> 00:27:10.920
really allow it. And then it
just ended up where they're the baby faces

360
00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:14.839
in this feud and the final destination
are the heels, and so they kind

361
00:27:14.839 --> 00:27:18.160
of took away what I thought would
have been a more interesting turn for the

362
00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:21.160
three of them. But I don't
know. I mean this again, it

363
00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:25.279
just feels dead in the water for
me aop here. They just mostly plotted

364
00:27:25.319 --> 00:27:30.839
around. You know, it's fine
to have two bigger guys who go in

365
00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:34.599
there and beat people up. When
they're in there squashing people in forty seconds,

366
00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:38.720
right, they look dominant. It's
fine. They're not dynamic enough though,

367
00:27:40.640 --> 00:27:45.319
or interesting enough on their own to
carry a longer match and not have

368
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:49.279
it come off as just plotting and
boring. Yeah, the profits tried to

369
00:27:49.319 --> 00:27:53.640
keep it interesting, had a couple
of fun spots here, but the match

370
00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:57.920
itself was really uh, you don't
really have much else to say about the

371
00:27:57.920 --> 00:28:02.440
match. There really was nothing special
about it. The story here really is

372
00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:07.079
Lashly in his arm because they had
the angle they shot here where Carrion Cross

373
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:11.359
takes the chair and smashes it against
his elbow against the ring post, casing

374
00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:15.480
that now would give in theory.
I say in theory because I have to

375
00:28:15.480 --> 00:28:19.200
talk about the end of the show
here in a minute. But theoretically it

376
00:28:19.200 --> 00:28:23.960
would give Lashley now an excuse when
he does not win in the elimination chamber.

377
00:28:23.960 --> 00:28:26.799
They could target the arm right he's
coming in at less than one hundred

378
00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:30.799
percent. I'm sure that's why they
did the angle in the first place.

379
00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:36.839
But in the trainer's room later,
Lashly was being tended to. His arm

380
00:28:36.920 --> 00:28:38.920
was being wrapped. He's sitting there, the arm is wrapped to try to

381
00:28:38.920 --> 00:28:45.319
put ice on it, and Drew
McIntyre walks in after he was humiliated earlier

382
00:28:45.359 --> 00:28:48.960
by Lashley. Now, this was
his revenge. He walks in, he

383
00:28:48.000 --> 00:28:51.880
looks at Lashly dead in the eye, and he just looks at him and

384
00:28:51.880 --> 00:28:57.599
he goes, I'll pray for you, and he walks off. Perfect didn't

385
00:28:57.599 --> 00:29:03.359
have to say anything more than that, I'll pray for you, Perfect.

386
00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:07.960
Perfect. You know right now I
have to say it is a competition in

387
00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:15.880
wrestling between Drew MacIntyre and Christian Cage
to find out who is the biggest menace

388
00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:22.480
in pro wrestling now that Vince McMahon
is gone, who is the biggest menace?

389
00:29:22.559 --> 00:29:26.440
I don't know both men. Christian. Christian's been doing this gimmick a

390
00:29:26.480 --> 00:29:30.279
little bit longer. Christian is as
great today as he was a year ago.

391
00:29:30.960 --> 00:29:33.880
Drew though, he has just discovered
another side of him that I find

392
00:29:34.119 --> 00:29:37.839
so much more interesting than anything this
man was doing before. It's not even

393
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:42.240
funny. He is just firing on
all cylinders right now. But I don't

394
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:48.359
know him and Christian. Boy.
Imagine them as a tag team. Hollie

395
00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:56.400
crap. Now, backstage, I
mentioned Dakota earlier was hurt. Dakota Kai

396
00:29:56.559 --> 00:30:02.160
was in the trainer's room having her
knee examined when and Bailey walked it to

397
00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:07.119
check on her former faction mate,
and Dakota told Bailey it was damage Control,

398
00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:11.799
because of course it was. It
was damage Control that attacked her knee.

399
00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:15.960
And Bailey said, you know,
I should have known that this was

400
00:30:15.000 --> 00:30:18.880
going to happen, and they're not
going to get away with it, and

401
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:23.599
Dakota said that she's she knows she's
going to have to earn back Bailey's trust,

402
00:30:25.519 --> 00:30:32.920
but they're going to make them pay. You know, Bailey was hip

403
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:37.839
to Damage Control's little plan when EO
and Oscar and Kyrie turned on her all

404
00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:41.240
those weeks ago. She wasn't dumb. She knew exactly what was going on.

405
00:30:41.319 --> 00:30:45.559
She had the pipe right, she
was prepared for it made her look

406
00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:48.559
smart. I would like to think
that in this situation, Bailey would also

407
00:30:48.640 --> 00:30:55.079
see coming what is obviously coming,
which is the Dakota Kai. He'll turn

408
00:30:55.799 --> 00:31:00.039
because Dakota Kai is still going to
be with Osca, EO and Kyrie,

409
00:31:02.079 --> 00:31:04.000
and I would like to think that
Bailey, as all of us can,

410
00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:08.640
is skeptical enough to see it coming. They've already announced the tag team match

411
00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:12.680
for next week, and they did
it almost like a throwaway announcement. Late

412
00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:15.200
in the show. They put the
graphic up on screen. It's gonna be

413
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:21.319
Bailey and Dakota Kai taking on the
Kabuki Warriors, and they've made sure to

414
00:31:21.359 --> 00:31:23.640
point out we don't know if they're
gonna be tag team champions come next week.

415
00:31:23.680 --> 00:31:29.599
But Oscar and Kyrie against Bailey and
Dakota Now that's big because this is

416
00:31:29.640 --> 00:31:33.000
the first time that Dakota Kai is
getting in the ring for an actual match

417
00:31:33.319 --> 00:31:37.440
since May of last year. This
is her in ring return, and I

418
00:31:37.440 --> 00:31:41.799
don't think they mentioned that a little
fact. Now you assume that she's cleared.

419
00:31:42.880 --> 00:31:45.640
But again, maybe she's not even
gonna work the match. Maybe she's

420
00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:48.720
gonna stand on the apron. Bailey
is gonna do all the work, and

421
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:55.359
it's the old reach for the tag
and Dakota is nowhere to be found and

422
00:31:55.400 --> 00:31:59.400
they all beat down poor Bailey.
Right, we don't even know if Dakota

423
00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:02.599
is necessary going to get physical next
week. So I don't want to make

424
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:07.680
any assumptions that she is for sure
cleared to wrestle, because I think we

425
00:32:07.759 --> 00:32:15.039
all see what's coming. We all
see what's coming. Back to the bloodlined

426
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:22.480
locker room where Paul Hayman introduced Grayson
Waller to Roman Rains or introduced Roman Reigns

427
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:31.680
to Grayson Waller. Either way,
Scarlet says, Carmelo Carmelo Hayes attack Dakoda

428
00:32:32.200 --> 00:32:37.079
Carmelo Hayes. I mean he's going
around just beating up random people. Is

429
00:32:37.079 --> 00:32:42.119
that what's going on here? Is
that his new gimmick man, woman or

430
00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:46.480
child. Nobody is safe from Carmelo
Hayes in this company. So in walks

431
00:32:46.519 --> 00:32:51.640
Grayson Waller. Roman tells him to
take a seat on the couch and said,

432
00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:54.759
uh, I want to tell you
something, but it's for your ears

433
00:32:54.759 --> 00:33:00.440
only now. I thought that meant
that was a cue for Jimmy and Solo

434
00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:05.319
and Hayman to leave and it was
just gonna be the two of them.

435
00:33:06.279 --> 00:33:09.400
I didn't realize that that meant that
was the end of the segment and we

436
00:33:09.400 --> 00:33:13.480
were not going to be privy to
what they were end up, you know

437
00:33:13.519 --> 00:33:15.519
what they were going to talk about. I thought that we were actually gonna

438
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:20.039
hear part of the conversation. We
didn't get part of the conversation. They

439
00:33:20.079 --> 00:33:25.799
cut away, perfect timing. I
smell a setup coming for tomorrow. Now

440
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:30.920
they have not announced Roman or Rock
for the Elimination Chamber. I still feel

441
00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:36.039
like they're gonna show. I feel
like we're gonna get a Rock and Roman

442
00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:40.720
appearance during the Grayson Waller effect.
We're gonna get a bloodline appearance of some

443
00:33:40.920 --> 00:33:46.000
kind, whether it's Roman and Rock, whether it's Jimmy and Solo. I'm

444
00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:50.960
thinking Roman and Rock though, right, keep it hush, hush, Let

445
00:33:51.000 --> 00:33:54.359
him show up as a surprise and
look, baby, we will get the

446
00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:59.720
challenge for a tag team match on
Night one of WrestleMania. It still seems

447
00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:02.319
to me like that is the most
likely scenario for Rock to get back in

448
00:34:02.319 --> 00:34:06.480
the ring. If Rock is wrestling
a match for sure at wrestle Mania,

449
00:34:06.559 --> 00:34:09.800
what other match would it be?
What other match would it be? You

450
00:34:09.840 --> 00:34:14.880
know, for them to have Cody
wrestle twice and for him to go in

451
00:34:14.920 --> 00:34:20.119
there and let's say, wrestle Rock
one on one on night one and then

452
00:34:20.239 --> 00:34:22.800
come back and wrestle Roman on night
two, So you probably lose to the

453
00:34:22.880 --> 00:34:27.559
Rock on night one and then wrestle
Roman on night two. I'm not a

454
00:34:27.559 --> 00:34:30.960
fan of that. Like a tag
match, I could see that a tag

455
00:34:31.000 --> 00:34:36.639
match is honestly what makes the most
sense in this situation. Maybe they'll set

456
00:34:36.679 --> 00:34:38.440
that up tomorrow. There is a
reason why Cody and Seth they're going to

457
00:34:38.480 --> 00:34:44.559
be together in that segment. Has
to be leading to something we'll find out

458
00:34:44.599 --> 00:34:47.000
in a few hours if we don't
have to wait very long, because it

459
00:34:47.079 --> 00:34:51.960
is eleven o'clock at night and the
show starts at five am, so we

460
00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:57.719
don't have to wait very long at
all. The main event. Look at

461
00:34:57.760 --> 00:34:59.840
that, See we're already up to
the main event here. The main event

462
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:05.199
of the show hit two of the
six Men and the men's elimination Chamber match

463
00:35:05.239 --> 00:35:08.760
tomorrow against each other. Drew McIntyre
in La Night. As the match was

464
00:35:08.760 --> 00:35:14.440
about to begin, Logan Paul's music
hit and the United States Champion walked down

465
00:35:14.440 --> 00:35:20.920
to the ring to do commentary.
As McIntyre was laying a beating on Night

466
00:35:21.039 --> 00:35:25.000
outside, Kevin Owens arrived on the
scene, and Kevin Owens decided, you

467
00:35:25.039 --> 00:35:30.639
know what I'm going to do commentary
also, so he took a seat next

468
00:35:30.679 --> 00:35:35.159
to the announcers. As McIntyre continued
his attack on Night, he missed the

469
00:35:35.239 --> 00:35:40.199
move in the corner and Knight followed
up with his signature vertical leap into the

470
00:35:40.239 --> 00:35:45.360
superplex, only got a two count. McIntyre followed up with a Future Shock

471
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:51.760
DDT, but after failing to hit
the Claymoar kick because Knight just moved out

472
00:35:51.760 --> 00:35:53.679
of the way and Drew went flying
and he took a flat bag bump.

473
00:35:54.800 --> 00:36:00.599
After that, the action spilled outside
on the floor. Knight slam McIntire into

474
00:36:00.639 --> 00:36:06.800
the announced desk about a dozen times. McIntyre eventually threw Night back or through

475
00:36:06.920 --> 00:36:10.440
Night into Kevin Owens rather so that
knocked Owens down. He wasn't very happy

476
00:36:10.480 --> 00:36:15.119
about that. Owens then attacked McIntyre. Things broke down, the match got

477
00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:21.760
called off a big brawl broke out
with all four men. Night hit a

478
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:28.199
bft on, Drew Owens dropped Logan
with a stunner, Bobby Lashley hit the

479
00:36:28.239 --> 00:36:34.320
scene, wrapped up arm looked okay
to me. Wasn't selling the arm at

480
00:36:34.320 --> 00:36:38.960
all? Lol, carrying cross who
just took a fucking chair to the man's

481
00:36:39.039 --> 00:36:45.880
arm two segments before, not even
two segments later, or however many segments

482
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:47.440
it was? Who gives a shit? By the end of the show.

483
00:36:47.519 --> 00:36:52.599
The man is out there, he's
posing, he's spearing. People. Can't

484
00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:59.599
be that bad of an injury,
but yeah, he uh, he speared

485
00:36:59.599 --> 00:37:05.280
a few there. And then they
played Bobby Lashley's music. And you didn't

486
00:37:05.320 --> 00:37:08.360
think that they were gonna let Bobby
Lashly pose to end the show, now,

487
00:37:08.480 --> 00:37:12.719
did you? You didn't think they
were gonna play his music and close

488
00:37:12.800 --> 00:37:15.159
things out? Of course not,
because as soon as he turned around he

489
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:21.960
ate a Claymore kick by Drew McIntyre. McIntyre kicked up to his feet,

490
00:37:22.239 --> 00:37:29.119
and that worried me because I got
McIntyre picked for tomorrow and him standing tall

491
00:37:29.159 --> 00:37:32.239
at the end probably doesn't bode well
for his chances. And thankfully that's not

492
00:37:32.280 --> 00:37:36.639
where it ended though, because you
could hear a stir in the crowd.

493
00:37:37.559 --> 00:37:40.519
Crowd was reacting to something, and
then you see Randy Orton slither into the

494
00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:47.320
ring. McIntyre turns around and he
eats an RKO and Randy Orton is the

495
00:37:47.320 --> 00:37:53.000
man who closes out the final SmackDown
before Elimination Chamber, and honestly, Randy

496
00:37:53.079 --> 00:37:57.280
Orton running in there got the biggest
reaction of anything on the entire show.

497
00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:01.159
It's hard on these tape shows because
you just have to assume that almost everything

498
00:38:01.239 --> 00:38:06.320
is manufactured in some way. This
though, you can see it. You

499
00:38:06.360 --> 00:38:10.239
can see it, you can feel
it. The people were way way into

500
00:38:10.320 --> 00:38:14.920
Randy Orton hitting the RCAO. It's, you know, an easy reaction every

501
00:38:14.920 --> 00:38:20.280
time, and that is how they
closed the show again. If you missed

502
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:22.679
this episode of smack that, and
I'm willing to bet dollars to donuts some

503
00:38:22.719 --> 00:38:29.039
of you did. Smart people you
are, you didn't miss it. You

504
00:38:29.079 --> 00:38:31.440
didn't miss anything. They did set
things up for the Bailey tag team match

505
00:38:31.519 --> 00:38:36.639
next week, but it's not anything
they're not going to replay on next week's

506
00:38:36.639 --> 00:38:38.840
show to get you out to speed, So you didn't miss anything. There

507
00:38:38.880 --> 00:38:43.039
was some good wrestling. I get
good wrestling, I get great wrestling every

508
00:38:43.039 --> 00:38:47.280
week. It takes more than just
a couple of good matches to keep my

509
00:38:47.400 --> 00:38:52.239
interest in these shows. And there
just wasn't a whole lot there. There

510
00:38:52.280 --> 00:38:57.119
wasn't a lot of meat on the
bone. It was a show that was

511
00:38:57.159 --> 00:39:00.920
SmackDown. Now. It was a
show because it was a taped show,

512
00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:07.119
and it was a taped show because
they're in Perth for the Elimination Chamber,

513
00:39:07.119 --> 00:39:08.760
which is coming up tomorrow. And
I did tell you that we would run

514
00:39:08.800 --> 00:39:12.400
down the show here, So let's
go ahead and do that right now.

515
00:39:13.519 --> 00:39:21.719
Because the Elimination Chamber begins at five
am Eastern, two am Pacific, and

516
00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:24.480
whatever time zone you may be in, look it up because it's going on

517
00:39:24.519 --> 00:39:30.159
a lot earlier than normal. Yes, Daddy Yugarte says, this was an

518
00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:37.559
FS one episode of SmackDown, only
it was on Fox. Indeed, here's

519
00:39:37.599 --> 00:39:42.400
the card seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes. They are going to be on the

520
00:39:42.400 --> 00:39:45.840
Grayson Waller Effect. I still think
Rock and Roman are going to show their

521
00:39:45.880 --> 00:39:50.920
faces on this pay per view.
They have added a kickoff match to this

522
00:39:51.039 --> 00:39:54.239
show. It is going to be
the Kabuki Warriors defending their women's tag team

523
00:39:54.320 --> 00:39:59.039
titles against Candice Leray and Indy Hartwell. So they came up with something for

524
00:39:59.079 --> 00:40:02.840
Indy Hartwell to do in her homeland, which is very cool. I still

525
00:40:02.840 --> 00:40:07.559
feel bad for Bronze and Reid,
though, Yeah, we were speculating.

526
00:40:07.559 --> 00:40:12.000
On Monday, there were some people
discussing the possibility that maybe he's not going

527
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:16.039
on the trip because his wife is
expecting. They're having a child soon,

528
00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:22.199
and the thought was that maybe she's
expecting imminently and he just doesn't want to

529
00:40:22.280 --> 00:40:27.199
leave home, which would be understandable. He refuted that though, he got

530
00:40:27.199 --> 00:40:31.760
on social media and said, yes, we are having a child, but

531
00:40:31.920 --> 00:40:37.440
no, my wife is not going
into labor, you know, this week.

532
00:40:37.199 --> 00:40:42.000
So that's not the reason. He
said. Sometimes it just doesn't work

533
00:40:42.039 --> 00:40:45.000
out, And I'm like, really, you couldn't come up with something for

534
00:40:45.039 --> 00:40:50.719
this guy to do on the show. This guy goes from potentially working a

535
00:40:50.760 --> 00:40:53.079
world heavyweight title match, which I
still maintained is what we were going to

536
00:40:53.119 --> 00:40:58.760
get it. Had Cmpunk had gotten
hurt, it would have been and Rollin's

537
00:40:58.760 --> 00:41:01.280
for that matter. For Rollin,
everybody's getting fucking hurt these days. But

538
00:41:01.400 --> 00:41:05.880
had he not gotten hurt. Remember
those vignettes that they aired. I think

539
00:41:05.920 --> 00:41:08.800
the match was going to be Bronson
Reid and Seth Robbins. So this guy

540
00:41:08.840 --> 00:41:14.360
goes from potentially wrestling for the world
heavyweight title in his home country, big

541
00:41:14.400 --> 00:41:19.480
stadium show, right forty fifty thousand
people, to not even being on the

542
00:41:19.559 --> 00:41:22.800
car, not even flying over there, Like, how fucked up is that?

543
00:41:24.679 --> 00:41:28.800
Anyway? The Kabooki Warriors are going
to retain their tag team titles.

544
00:41:28.840 --> 00:41:31.440
I'm sure the people in Perth would
love to see Indy Hartwell walk out with

545
00:41:31.519 --> 00:41:36.599
gold, but yes, and I
would love a Playboy model to come busting

546
00:41:36.599 --> 00:41:38.239
through the door right now in the
middle of this live screen, but that's

547
00:41:38.280 --> 00:41:43.599
not going to happen either. We
have the undisputed tag team titles up for

548
00:41:43.639 --> 00:41:46.519
grabs FNN Balor and Damian Priest.
They are going to be defending their titles

549
00:41:46.519 --> 00:41:51.840
against Pete Dunn and Tyler Bate.
That will be a win for the Judgment

550
00:41:51.920 --> 00:41:58.679
day. Rheo Ripley defends her Women's
World Championship against Naya Jacks. Could that

551
00:41:58.760 --> 00:42:02.639
be the match that closes the show
depends on what the outcome of the Men's

552
00:42:02.719 --> 00:42:07.280
Chamber is gonna be it's gonna be
one of those two, but the outcome

553
00:42:07.360 --> 00:42:10.719
isn't gonna be any different either way. Ria Ripley is not losing her title

554
00:42:10.760 --> 00:42:15.360
to Naya Jack, so Ria is
gonna win. We have the women's chamber

555
00:42:15.440 --> 00:42:19.760
match, I'm sticking with Becky Lynch
as my pick, and the men's chamber

556
00:42:19.840 --> 00:42:22.280
match, I'm sticking with Drew McIntyre
is my pick. There. I would

557
00:42:22.320 --> 00:42:30.239
think that those are probably the two
favorites, but I'm sticking with them because

558
00:42:30.239 --> 00:42:32.199
I think they're the favorites for a
reason. I think they're winning, and

559
00:42:32.239 --> 00:42:37.880
I think Drew McIntyre is gonna wrestle
Seth rawlicks wrestle Meane. And I think

560
00:42:37.880 --> 00:42:40.519
that Becky Lynch and Riea Ripley is
a match that they've been teasing for a

561
00:42:40.519 --> 00:42:45.760
while. That's a one of the
biggest women's matches they could do right now.

562
00:42:45.920 --> 00:42:47.840
I mean, when I think of
what is the biggest women's match at

563
00:42:47.840 --> 00:42:53.920
this moment that wwe could be doing
it Wrestlemane. It's either Rear Ripley and

564
00:42:53.960 --> 00:42:59.719
Bianca bell Air and I don't think
they're going to that yet, or it's

565
00:42:59.719 --> 00:43:05.360
Becky Lynch and Rhea Ripley so those
are going to be your elimination chamber winners.

566
00:43:05.360 --> 00:43:10.840
Tomorrow. Like I said, noon
noon Eastern is when I will be

567
00:43:10.960 --> 00:43:15.280
live. So give you guys plenty
of time to watch the pay per view

568
00:43:15.599 --> 00:43:19.320
sometime in the morning if you want
to watch it beforehand, and then I'll

569
00:43:19.320 --> 00:43:23.480
go live and we'll talk about it. You can fix some lunch and watch

570
00:43:23.559 --> 00:43:29.159
yours truly talk about the good,
the bad, and the ugly. Speaking

571
00:43:29.159 --> 00:43:31.239
to ugly, let's take a look
at this Twitter pol here. I am

572
00:43:31.320 --> 00:43:36.599
now doing a star rating system per
one of your suggestions. This is the

573
00:43:36.599 --> 00:43:39.440
new way we are doing these polls, at least for the weekly shows.

574
00:43:39.440 --> 00:43:45.159
Again, I'm undecided if we will
do thumbs up, thumbs down, and

575
00:43:45.400 --> 00:43:49.320
thumbs in the middle for the pay
per views. We'll see, but four

576
00:43:49.440 --> 00:43:57.119
stars show tonight thirty percent, thirty
eight percent give this show three stars,

577
00:43:58.599 --> 00:44:02.880
sixteen percent give this sh show two
stars, and fifteen percent give this show

578
00:44:04.599 --> 00:44:09.639
one star. And I am going
to keep my mouth shut. It's apparently

579
00:44:09.639 --> 00:44:13.679
when I give my opinion, people
bitch and wine. So there you go,

580
00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:15.840
it's your poll. You vote in
the poll, you let me know

581
00:44:15.920 --> 00:44:20.760
what you thought of this show.
At Solemn Monster, go ahead and vote

582
00:44:21.599 --> 00:44:27.360
to your heart's content. There you
go. I will say no more.

583
00:44:30.599 --> 00:44:32.360
I will say this. I want
to get to your superchats. That's what

584
00:44:32.400 --> 00:44:36.719
I want to do. So why
don't we go ahead and do that?

585
00:44:36.760 --> 00:44:42.199
Hey, Drew, I saw your
message at the very end of the stream

586
00:44:42.239 --> 00:44:44.760
on Wednesday, so just so you
know, I did not miss it.

587
00:44:45.800 --> 00:44:50.239
I did not miss it. Thank
you for the super chat. He talked

588
00:44:50.239 --> 00:44:54.000
about his buddy launched wrestling Chimp.
Thank you, GW. I don't know

589
00:44:54.000 --> 00:45:00.320
what that means, but Druth,
thank you. I'm just checking here because

590
00:45:00.440 --> 00:45:06.280
some of them did not push yeah, so let me uh yeah, some

591
00:45:06.320 --> 00:45:09.000
of them are not listed here for
some reason. They weren't pushing out at

592
00:45:09.039 --> 00:45:15.199
all here to the screen even though
they came in. Now they're here,

593
00:45:15.239 --> 00:45:17.480
but some of them got omitted.
So let me go back here and just

594
00:45:17.559 --> 00:45:23.000
make sure I got fire Panda and
some of the other ones. Fire Panda,

595
00:45:23.079 --> 00:45:28.199
thank you, by the way for
the twenty or twenty ish. I

596
00:45:28.199 --> 00:45:30.960
don't know what the conversion was,
but I don't know about you, boss,

597
00:45:31.039 --> 00:45:35.559
but something tells me Roman did not
call for the bloodline to be at

598
00:45:35.679 --> 00:45:38.880
raw. I wonder if a certain
Hollywood star made that call if you smell

599
00:45:39.039 --> 00:45:44.599
what I'm cooking. Oh, I
smell what you're cooking. All right,

600
00:45:44.760 --> 00:45:49.360
you and I are on the same
wavelength. I think you and I are

601
00:45:49.400 --> 00:45:55.280
thinking the same on that. I
think you're right. This week's episode is

602
00:45:55.320 --> 00:46:00.840
sponsored by Express VPN. You know, I dropped my phone the other day.

603
00:46:00.000 --> 00:46:04.119
I almost had a heart attack because
I don't drop stuff, not usually.

604
00:46:04.480 --> 00:46:07.400
I keep my phone in a protective
case anyway, because for the money

605
00:46:07.400 --> 00:46:08.960
I paid for this thing, I
can buy a twenty dollars case to keep

606
00:46:08.960 --> 00:46:13.960
it safe. Going online to do
your banking, or to buy things and

607
00:46:14.400 --> 00:46:19.440
give your credit card information out,
or really to do anything without using Express

608
00:46:19.559 --> 00:46:23.239
VPN would be like using your smartphone
without a case. All it takes is

609
00:46:23.280 --> 00:46:27.760
one drop on concrete and you're gonna
wish you had that protection. Trust me,

610
00:46:28.320 --> 00:46:31.400
you need a VPN because every time
you connect to a network that's not

611
00:46:31.639 --> 00:46:36.159
encrypted, which could be anywhere outside
your home. Really, you have to

612
00:46:36.199 --> 00:46:39.159
assume that your data is not secure. Anyone with enough know how on that

613
00:46:39.199 --> 00:46:45.400
same network can easily steal your personal
data that includes passwords and important financial details.

614
00:46:45.679 --> 00:46:49.719
It doesn't take much. Any kid
who looks up how to do it

615
00:46:49.760 --> 00:46:52.280
online can do it, and your
data is valuable. Hackers can make out

616
00:46:52.280 --> 00:46:57.119
with up to one thousand bucks per
person selling your information on the dark web.

617
00:46:57.679 --> 00:46:59.920
So now that you know, you
need to be using a VPN,

618
00:47:00.000 --> 00:47:04.000
and let me tell you why you
should be using Express VPN because it creates

619
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:07.840
an encrypted tunnel between your device and
the internet, so hackers can't steal your

620
00:47:07.880 --> 00:47:12.760
data, so you know it's secure. It's also easy to use. You

621
00:47:12.800 --> 00:47:15.559
just fire up the app, you
click one button and that's it. You're

622
00:47:15.559 --> 00:47:19.719
protected and it works on all devices
like phones, laptops, tablets, and

623
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:23.280
more. That ease of use,
that's what I like most personally about ExpressVPN.

624
00:47:23.360 --> 00:47:27.159
I don't have to think about it. I just click a button and

625
00:47:27.199 --> 00:47:30.360
it takes care of the rest.
For me, that's important to me because

626
00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:35.039
my life is online. All of
our lives really are online, personally and

627
00:47:35.119 --> 00:47:38.760
professionally, and the last thing that
I want is someone snooping around and stealing

628
00:47:38.760 --> 00:47:43.480
my information. It's not their information, it's mine and I'd like to keep

629
00:47:43.519 --> 00:47:47.880
it that way. So secure your

that bron Breaker should get a two thousand

633
00:48:07.400 --> 00:48:15.960
and two brock Lesnar type of push
or am I just a simp for Breaker?

634
00:48:15.039 --> 00:48:21.760
Breaker is fantastic. I don't think
that it necessarily needs to be a

635
00:48:21.880 --> 00:48:28.800
Lesner style push where he's world champion
within six months. Few people in the

636
00:48:28.840 --> 00:48:31.920
history of this company have been pushed
as hard and as fast as brock Lesner

637
00:48:32.159 --> 00:48:35.800
was. You think of the names
that this guy beat in his first six

638
00:48:35.840 --> 00:48:38.400
months in the company. I mean
you're talking about people Rick Flair, Hulk

639
00:48:38.480 --> 00:48:44.480
Hogan, Rob Van Dam, The
Rock, the undertakee Right, and they

640
00:48:44.519 --> 00:48:49.280
would have put him over Steve Austin
had Austin not walked out. I mean,

641
00:48:49.400 --> 00:48:52.719
we have never seen somebody push that
hard that quickly in this company before,

642
00:48:53.760 --> 00:48:57.440
and I don't know that I would
give him that level of push.

643
00:48:57.519 --> 00:49:00.559
I would definitely give him a big
push. I would definitely at least get

644
00:49:00.599 --> 00:49:02.719
a mid card title on him at
some point in the not too distant future,

645
00:49:04.119 --> 00:49:07.960
and he could potentially be challenging for
a world titled by year's end.

646
00:49:07.840 --> 00:49:10.119
But I also don't think there's a
need to rush. I think you could

647
00:49:10.159 --> 00:49:14.039
keep him strong. I think you
could keep him in the mix. You

648
00:49:14.079 --> 00:49:16.960
don't necessarily need to give him the
brock Lesnar push, because that was just

649
00:49:17.000 --> 00:49:22.400
something special that I don't think we've
seen since on quite that same level,

650
00:49:22.760 --> 00:49:30.159
if we're being honest. I mean, they pushed that man like nothing that

651
00:49:30.199 --> 00:49:32.840
you would believe the names that that
guy got put over in that first year.

652
00:49:32.880 --> 00:49:37.639
And he was also just a physical
freak. I mean, bron breaker.

653
00:49:37.800 --> 00:49:42.280
He's a great athlete and everything,
and he can break you in half.

654
00:49:42.320 --> 00:49:45.880
But Brock was just on a different
level from the moment he debuted and

655
00:49:45.920 --> 00:49:49.480
he beat Spike Dudley to a pulp
on that first night on Raw. The

656
00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:52.000
way he was throwing him around and
slamming him around, and the things this

657
00:49:52.079 --> 00:49:59.960
guy could do, just an absolute
freak of nature. They don't make a

658
00:50:00.239 --> 00:50:05.000
like that. All right, now, we could pick up here because for

659
00:50:05.039 --> 00:50:07.960
whatever reason, those are the only
two that didn't show up here. But

660
00:50:08.159 --> 00:50:13.039
we'll pick up here now with Prince
Bgeta, Prince vegeta thank you for the

661
00:50:13.079 --> 00:50:16.920
four ninety nine. He says,
how long until the h Man finally gives

662
00:50:17.000 --> 00:50:21.039
up on Cross. I don't see
this push working out for him. Please

663
00:50:21.079 --> 00:50:27.039
don't have Lashley job to this guy. He likes him, he likes him,

664
00:50:27.039 --> 00:50:30.400
and he wants to give him every
opportunity to succeed. And I still

665
00:50:30.440 --> 00:50:32.840
think that you can do something with
him, just not in this type of

666
00:50:32.920 --> 00:50:37.880
gimmick. This is the third or
fourth time that they're trying is it's not

667
00:50:37.920 --> 00:50:42.239
gonna work. It's just not It's
not gonna work. It's time to shake

668
00:50:42.320 --> 00:50:46.280
it up and try something entirely different, go in a totally different character direction

669
00:50:46.400 --> 00:50:52.079
with him, him and Scarlett.
I think there's something there. I think

670
00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:54.639
it could work, but just not
not with this character. I just don't

671
00:50:54.639 --> 00:51:01.800
see it having legs Alex, thank
you for the ten dollars, says brother

672
00:51:01.960 --> 00:51:05.920
Solo. Thank you for the hard
work you put into these live streams in

673
00:51:05.960 --> 00:51:10.440
the podcast give us a very unlikely
but bold prediction for the elimination shape.

674
00:51:13.559 --> 00:51:19.119
We're going to see Damian Priest and
Finn Balor lose their tag team titles to

675
00:51:19.159 --> 00:51:22.519
Pete Dunn and Tyler Bate earlier in
the show, and then when Cody Rhodes

676
00:51:22.559 --> 00:51:25.280
and Seth Rollins come out to be
on the Grayson Waller effect. Damian Priest

677
00:51:25.360 --> 00:51:29.599
is gonna come out and cash in
his money at the bank on Seth and

678
00:51:29.639 --> 00:51:35.760
he's gonna win the world time.
Do you want a bold prediction? And

679
00:51:35.840 --> 00:51:38.360
that music is going to play as
soon as the referee counts three and Seth

680
00:51:38.400 --> 00:51:47.880
loses his type story of Seth Robins. There's your bold prediction, Devin from

681
00:51:49.039 --> 00:51:52.920
n J. What is scarier the
Rocks swinging a chair at you or Kevin

682
00:51:53.039 --> 00:52:00.800
Nash swinging a baseball bat at you. The Rock swinging a chair at Kevin

683
00:52:00.880 --> 00:52:04.039
Nash is a lot taller than I
am, so if he swings the chair,

684
00:52:04.079 --> 00:52:07.239
there's a pretty good possibility that it
will go right over my head.

685
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:10.519
I could just duck it and then
run away, because Kevin Nash I get

686
00:52:10.519 --> 00:52:15.119
to chase after me. The one
thing I know I could beat Kevin Nash

687
00:52:15.159 --> 00:52:17.960
at is a foot race. I
ain't worried about that. As soon as

688
00:52:17.960 --> 00:52:22.280
he swings and misses, I'll be
gone so quickly he'll still be standing there.

689
00:52:22.880 --> 00:52:24.840
So I would be much more afraid
of the Rocks swinging a chair.

690
00:52:25.679 --> 00:52:31.119
Winter Burgos so happy for Naya after
all the nasty comments aimed at her when

691
00:52:31.119 --> 00:52:36.639
she returned. She has proven haters
wrong and now she is in the main

692
00:52:36.679 --> 00:52:42.159
event of a stadium pl e.
Well, we don't know that for sure.

693
00:52:43.280 --> 00:52:45.440
She may be in the main event. We just don't know for sure.

694
00:52:47.199 --> 00:52:52.440
Mikey s thirteen. What's your opinion
on the Undisputed Title from two thousand

695
00:52:52.440 --> 00:52:57.880
and two to two thousand and five
and why did it not come back after

696
00:52:58.199 --> 00:53:01.599
Sina lost? It would have looked
good on Orton or Edge. They like

697
00:53:01.719 --> 00:53:06.119
refreshing at every few years. They
really don't like going back. I was

698
00:53:06.159 --> 00:53:09.840
surprised and they brought back a version
of the Classic Intercontinental that Cody brought it

699
00:53:09.880 --> 00:53:15.480
back in twenty eleven. I guess
it would have been because they don't really

700
00:53:15.559 --> 00:53:19.880
like going back to the old designs. They just make new ones. I

701
00:53:19.920 --> 00:53:22.440
didn't hate it. I thought it
had a certain elegance to it. It

702
00:53:22.480 --> 00:53:25.519
certainly looks a lot better than some
of the titles they've had now or in

703
00:53:25.559 --> 00:53:30.199
the last few years. I'd much
rather have the Undisputed title from back then.

704
00:53:30.079 --> 00:53:35.719
At the time, it wasn't really
my faith. It wasn't my faith.

705
00:53:36.360 --> 00:53:37.960
I loved the Big Eagle. I
was pissed they got rid of the

706
00:53:38.000 --> 00:53:43.920
Big Eagle from the Attitude era.
But I didn't hate it, but it'll

707
00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:52.320
looked really nice. The person I
associate mostly with that title is brought Alex

708
00:53:52.360 --> 00:53:57.880
says, if WWE ever revisits a
storyline evolving a commentary team, what is

709
00:53:57.920 --> 00:54:06.159
the best way to make such a
storyline or few intriguing a storyline involving a

710
00:54:06.320 --> 00:54:12.920
commentary team. I don't know that
you really need to be coming up with

711
00:54:13.039 --> 00:54:16.079
stories for the commentary team. It
really shouldn't be about them. It should

712
00:54:16.079 --> 00:54:22.679
be about the wrestlers and not about
the commentators. And lord knows, we've

713
00:54:22.719 --> 00:54:27.719
seen it over the years when Michael
Cole had his heel turned, or with

714
00:54:27.880 --> 00:54:30.719
Jim Ross when they used to make
fun of him and beat him up and

715
00:54:30.719 --> 00:54:35.599
incorporate him into storylines all the time. I'm sure they'll have something involving Pat

716
00:54:35.679 --> 00:54:39.360
McAfee again at some point, But
as far as making it intriguing, I

717
00:54:39.360 --> 00:54:43.559
wouldn't really focus my energy on that. I would focus my energy on the

718
00:54:43.599 --> 00:54:54.440
actual talent Goo Ninja Guiden eighty six. Dante Chen needs to finish his story.

719
00:54:55.559 --> 00:54:59.800
Yeah, Dante Chen is not going
to be finishing any stories in WWA

720
00:55:01.719 --> 00:55:08.519
eight nine. Tech will Cody make
Roman look strong in WrestleMania. Always the

721
00:55:08.559 --> 00:55:17.320
directive has always been make Roman look
strong. Bernard Frederick Roman reigns catchphrases.

722
00:55:17.440 --> 00:55:23.039
Acknowledged me after watching Christian Cage's last
promo. His catchphrase should be Who's your

723
00:55:23.119 --> 00:55:29.280
Daddy? It would get over.
Well, here's the thing about Christian,

724
00:55:29.559 --> 00:55:31.239
and it's one of the things I
love about what he's doing right now.

725
00:55:32.719 --> 00:55:37.960
And Copeland has talked about this.
What's so great about what Christian is doing

726
00:55:38.880 --> 00:55:45.599
is the fact that he does not
want to be cheered. He does not

727
00:55:45.760 --> 00:55:49.760
want to do anything that is going
to get him a positive reaction. He

728
00:55:49.840 --> 00:55:54.800
wants to be the most irredeemable piece
of garbage that you can imagine. So

729
00:55:55.119 --> 00:56:00.960
for him to have a catchphrase,
he doesn't want people to chant his catchphrames.

730
00:56:01.800 --> 00:56:06.599
You know. And I don't even
think he has a shirt on aw

731
00:56:06.679 --> 00:56:07.760
shot, or at least not like
a new one. I know he had

732
00:56:07.760 --> 00:56:12.960
an old one at work everybody.
But he's like an old school heel who

733
00:56:13.079 --> 00:56:16.360
really wants heat. He does not
want to be a cool heel. Now

734
00:56:16.440 --> 00:56:22.719
the fans will sometimes laugh like they
love what he's doing. It's unavoidable,

735
00:56:22.760 --> 00:56:25.840
like he's just so good at it
that people are naturally going to laugh at

736
00:56:25.840 --> 00:56:30.840
it, or some people might cheer
for it. But his goal is to

737
00:56:30.880 --> 00:56:34.760
be as hated as possible, and
you don't get hated by going out there

738
00:56:34.760 --> 00:56:37.199
and trying to pop people with the
catch frames. So I don't think that

739
00:56:37.199 --> 00:56:45.199
that is something he's gonna want to
do. Arabian Knight says by sell Rent,

740
00:56:45.000 --> 00:56:49.000
which young talent has the most potential
to be a main event star?

741
00:56:49.599 --> 00:56:57.159
Theory Daniel Garcia or Dominant says dom
gets heat, but in ring he is

742
00:56:57.199 --> 00:57:04.000
a step behind as far as the
most potential to be a main event star.

743
00:57:05.400 --> 00:57:07.559
I think Dominic will get there.
I do. I think it'll be

744
00:57:07.599 --> 00:57:10.360
a few years, but I think
that he will eventually get there. I

745
00:57:10.440 --> 00:57:16.079
think Theory is someone who has definitely
been downplayed since Vince McMahon went away.

746
00:57:16.920 --> 00:57:23.719
You can kind of tell that he
was a Vince mcmahont project, but he's

747
00:57:23.760 --> 00:57:29.480
really stalled out. I still think
they see main event potential in him in

748
00:57:29.519 --> 00:57:32.920
the future. I'm gonna say the
one who I think will make it first

749
00:57:32.960 --> 00:57:38.239
will be will be Austin Theory.
Dom will get there. Daniel Garcia,

750
00:57:38.320 --> 00:57:44.320
I don't see it. I don't
see it happening, but the other two

751
00:57:44.440 --> 00:57:52.199
I think eventually will happen. M
Mill says nothing, says, here's ten

752
00:57:52.239 --> 00:57:54.360
dollars. Hey, m Mills,
thank you very much. I hope you

753
00:57:54.400 --> 00:57:59.920
are having a great night. Alex
says, what are your thoughts on WWE

754
00:58:00.079 --> 00:58:04.079
having an off season similar to major
sports leagues. I feel like I've answered

755
00:58:04.079 --> 00:58:07.920
a version of this question at least
a dozen times since I started doing the

756
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:13.199
podcast, and my answer never really
changes whether it was in two thousand and

757
00:58:13.239 --> 00:58:20.360
seven, twenty ten, twenty eighteen, twenty twenty four. I would not

758
00:58:20.440 --> 00:58:23.159
do an off season. There was
no need for a wrestling off season because

759
00:58:23.159 --> 00:58:30.000
it is not practical. The nature
of their television agreements is such that they

760
00:58:30.159 --> 00:58:35.239
need fifty two weeks a year of
program. That's just the way it is.

761
00:58:35.840 --> 00:58:38.320
That's what makes them so appealing.
That's what makes them so That made

762
00:58:38.320 --> 00:58:43.760
them so appealing during COVID, when
sports leagues were not even playing games,

763
00:58:43.800 --> 00:58:46.800
you still had WWE because it never
stopped. You still had aaw because it

764
00:58:46.840 --> 00:58:51.639
never stopped. So that's why they're
getting millions of dollars, or part of

765
00:58:51.679 --> 00:58:54.280
the reason why they're getting so much
money from Netflix. Soon you know,

766
00:58:54.440 --> 00:58:59.519
NBCUniversal in these different places. So
it's like, all right, you got

767
00:58:59.519 --> 00:59:04.199
to be about this. There will
not be an off season, but you

768
00:59:04.239 --> 00:59:09.719
can still rotate talent out on a
regular basis where you have a schedule that

769
00:59:09.800 --> 00:59:15.639
you come up with and there is
a mandatory rotation of talent whether they want

770
00:59:15.679 --> 00:59:19.639
it or not. There is a
certain period of time each year where talent

771
00:59:20.559 --> 00:59:24.800
gets time off. I'm not saying
they get a month off. It could

772
00:59:24.840 --> 00:59:27.960
be a week here and a week
there. It could be a few weeks

773
00:59:28.000 --> 00:59:30.400
here, a few weeks there.
I think there's a way to try to

774
00:59:30.440 --> 00:59:34.880
come up with something that works where
talent can get time off, the machine

775
00:59:34.880 --> 00:59:37.119
can keep going, and when one
person goes away, you kind of cycle

776
00:59:37.159 --> 00:59:40.119
them out and somebody else comes in, and you know, they have a

777
00:59:40.159 --> 00:59:44.199
lot of people on that roster.
It may not be so simple, but

778
00:59:44.400 --> 00:59:46.239
it's doable. It's more doable than
saying, hey, we're going to take

779
00:59:46.239 --> 00:59:51.360
off for two months or three months. Because look, in another world,

780
00:59:51.400 --> 00:59:53.679
in a different type of world where
they didn't have these television agreements, I

781
00:59:53.679 --> 01:00:00.000
would say after WrestleMania, why not
take a couple of months off after wrestlemane

782
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:02.519
when you hit the reset button,
you come back late spring, early summer,

783
01:00:02.719 --> 01:00:06.239
and you kick off the new season. Right. That sounds great.

784
01:00:06.559 --> 01:00:10.159
It's not practical, it's not gonna
happen, but you can rotate talent oubt

785
01:00:10.199 --> 01:00:15.760
and make sure they get time off. That's that's how I would do it.

786
01:00:15.800 --> 01:00:19.599
I don't think an offseason is practical
and pro wrestling, It's just not

787
01:00:19.639 --> 01:00:29.559
gonna happen. D e h Sire
says, Bianca against Tiffany and Jade against

788
01:00:29.639 --> 01:00:37.280
Naya at wrestle. Maybe I could
see that we already got a taste of

789
01:00:37.360 --> 01:00:42.519
Jade and Naya at the Royal Rumble. I could see that they did Brock

790
01:00:42.559 --> 01:00:46.000
and Omas last year. So the
battle of the giants, right, that

791
01:00:46.039 --> 01:00:50.360
would basically be kind of the Battle
of the Giants in the women's division.

792
01:00:51.320 --> 01:00:54.119
So yeah, I think I think
that. And Bianca against Tiffany is something

793
01:00:54.159 --> 01:01:00.000
I had pitched a few weeks ago, just because I'm not sure what else

794
01:01:00.000 --> 01:01:07.000
they're going to do with Bianca.
The Juliet Mustafa Ali won the TNA X

795
01:01:07.079 --> 01:01:10.079
Division title tonight, Well, good
for him, then, that's awesome.

796
01:01:10.960 --> 01:01:15.280
He has been killing it on the
independen scene. He's been hitting all kinds

797
01:01:15.280 --> 01:01:20.599
of places. I love what he
has done with those vignettes on social media.

798
01:01:20.599 --> 01:01:24.239
It's just so smart and the production
values are just top notch. He's

799
01:01:24.280 --> 01:01:29.679
really created a buzz for himself on
the indie scene. And we're actually going

800
01:01:29.760 --> 01:01:35.199
to have him in House of Glory
next weekend, and he's wrestling amazing Red

801
01:01:35.559 --> 01:01:38.639
Wrestle Many a weekend at Philadelphia,
So good for him. I'm happy for

802
01:01:38.719 --> 01:01:45.199
him. Chris Minor, thank you
for the fifteen dollars. Super chat says

803
01:01:45.880 --> 01:01:52.639
buy or Sell on which nineteen eighty
seven slammy song that you would rather see

804
01:01:52.679 --> 01:01:58.719
today's roster perform? Stand Back or
if you only knew, I'd like to

805
01:01:58.760 --> 01:02:02.519
picture Cody and the Hull logan roll
with Solo Socoa as Virgil staring at it.

806
01:02:06.639 --> 01:02:10.840
If you only knew, its actually
a very catchy song. I don't

807
01:02:10.880 --> 01:02:15.840
really have any appetite for either one
of them to be revived in the modern

808
01:02:15.920 --> 01:02:20.639
day. I think that's it's a
corny thing that needs to be left in

809
01:02:20.679 --> 01:02:23.760
the past. But if you only
knew it was a very very catchy theme

810
01:02:23.840 --> 01:02:30.480
song. Pile Driver was a great
song too, Chris axc buy or Sell

811
01:02:31.440 --> 01:02:36.079
more likely to be World Champion La
Knight or Logan Paul. I think the

812
01:02:36.119 --> 01:02:43.639
ship has sailed on La Personal.
I would also go Logan Paul. I

813
01:02:43.639 --> 01:02:46.679
think Logan Paul gets it before La
Knight does. If La Knight, ever

814
01:02:46.760 --> 01:02:53.440
does, I think Logan Paul has
a better shot. DH says saw Stardom

815
01:02:53.559 --> 01:02:59.239
Show and man, the US is
gonna love Julia. How can you not?

816
01:02:59.800 --> 01:03:05.880
Can you not love Juliet? She's
gonna get over instantly. I love

817
01:03:05.920 --> 01:03:08.480
the how she always changes up her
look too, her hairstyle, just her

818
01:03:08.519 --> 01:03:16.000
overall look. She's constantly like evolving
it. DH says, if you were

819
01:03:16.039 --> 01:03:20.480
to do the Brock Sena squash match
in today's time, who would you have?

820
01:03:20.800 --> 01:03:31.519
Mine would be either Bron or Gunther
squashing the champion Brock and Sina squad.

821
01:03:31.599 --> 01:03:35.079
Okay, you're talking about SummerSlam.
For some reason, I thought of

822
01:03:35.119 --> 01:03:42.840
Extreme Rules. That was kind of
a squash until the end when Sena suddenly

823
01:03:42.880 --> 01:03:45.800
won, when Super Sena kicked in
and he beat Brock in his first match

824
01:03:45.840 --> 01:03:51.960
back. The Summer Slam squash is
something that cannot be replicated again for like

825
01:03:52.119 --> 01:03:55.199
many many years, and so now
here we are ten years later. You

826
01:03:55.239 --> 01:04:01.719
believe it's been ten years since brock
Lesner's squash John Cena at Summerslim and I

827
01:04:01.719 --> 01:04:04.679
still remember that guy in the crowd
that they zoomed in on when the match

828
01:04:04.840 --> 01:04:08.199
was over. His mouth was wide
open. He couldn't believe it. He

829
01:04:08.199 --> 01:04:12.000
had his hands up. He was
like, oh my god, it killed

830
01:04:12.079 --> 01:04:17.440
John. So it's something that you
don't want to go back to too often.

831
01:04:18.480 --> 01:04:23.440
The shock value of it, though, was great. You know,

832
01:04:23.440 --> 01:04:27.920
who would I replicate it with?
Randy Orton is someone who's very giving.

833
01:04:29.079 --> 01:04:32.039
I feel like he was very giving
to Mark Henry when Mark Henry won his

834
01:04:32.039 --> 01:04:36.519
first world title. Maybe you could
do it like Randy or something. Randy

835
01:04:36.559 --> 01:04:41.800
wins the title back, which I
think he will at some point, and

836
01:04:41.840 --> 01:04:45.679
then you know, if you do
a squash, you can have like gun

837
01:04:45.679 --> 01:04:50.000
Through. I could see gun Through
squashing it or Ron. You know though

838
01:04:50.199 --> 01:04:53.519
I don't know that. Again,
do you need to do that? I

839
01:04:53.559 --> 01:04:59.159
feel like you would be almost kind
of jipping the fans in a way.

840
01:04:59.440 --> 01:05:03.000
I I'd much rather have somebody who
can go in there and be dominant.

841
01:05:03.039 --> 01:05:05.800
But you give the people their money's
work, you know, especially in a

842
01:05:05.840 --> 01:05:11.000
pay per view made event that was
a Summer Slim Maine event. I personally

843
01:05:11.000 --> 01:05:15.840
would rather have a more competitive match. You can have a competitive match back

844
01:05:15.880 --> 01:05:20.960
and forth and still put the guy
over in a strong way. That's my

845
01:05:21.079 --> 01:05:25.719
type of match. I'd rather see
that. So, yeah, you could

846
01:05:25.719 --> 01:05:29.199
do it with gun Through, you
could do it with Bron, maybe have

847
01:05:29.320 --> 01:05:32.679
Randy do the honors, but I'd
rather see them go at it man and

848
01:05:32.719 --> 01:05:40.000
have a ten or fifteen minute competitive
match. Arabian Knight says, where is

849
01:05:40.079 --> 01:05:43.559
Dragon Lee? Been off SmackDown for
five weeks? You know, it's funny

850
01:05:43.559 --> 01:05:47.320
you mentioned that I hadn't even thought
about him. He was getting to push,

851
01:05:47.719 --> 01:05:50.360
and now you're right, we have
not seen Dragon Lee. I can

852
01:05:50.400 --> 01:05:56.000
only think it could be visa related
because I have not heard anything about an

853
01:05:56.039 --> 01:06:01.239
injury. I don't I haven't heard
anything about him being hurt, so it

854
01:06:01.280 --> 01:06:05.599
could be it could be a visa
problem. Until you just mentioned it,

855
01:06:05.719 --> 01:06:10.280
I had not realized that it had
been five weeks since we saw Dragonly,

856
01:06:12.280 --> 01:06:15.320
it has to be one. It
has to be some kind of an issue

857
01:06:15.360 --> 01:06:19.480
with his work visa. It doesn't
make sense to me. He was getting

858
01:06:19.480 --> 01:06:26.159
a pretty noticeable push and then,
like you said, nothing just fell off

859
01:06:26.159 --> 01:06:39.000
the face of the earth. Uh
Yeager the ninth, the ninth. Has

860
01:06:39.000 --> 01:06:45.719
anybody ever told me that I look
like Jerry Seinfeld? Many times? I've

861
01:06:45.719 --> 01:06:49.079
been told I look like Jerry Seinfeld. I've been told I look like Orange

862
01:06:49.119 --> 01:06:53.320
Cassidy. I've been told I look
like Jake Hager. I was greatly offended

863
01:06:53.360 --> 01:06:58.840
by this. I've been told I
look like multiple people, multiple people.

864
01:07:00.280 --> 01:07:06.920
So take your pick any random white
guy. Basically, Hey, it's Solomon's

865
01:07:12.039 --> 01:07:17.599
Dorian Moore Awesome versus Brock, both
in their prime. Mike awesome, Mike

866
01:07:17.679 --> 01:07:23.800
Awesome against Brock, that'd be cool, but I am more partial to Brock

867
01:07:23.840 --> 01:07:30.519
against Vader. That would have been
something. Samuel Hayworth Orton would make more

868
01:07:30.599 --> 01:07:36.840
sense as Cody's partner, except Orton
is not the world heavyweight champion though,

869
01:07:36.880 --> 01:07:43.199
so you know, they obviously want
the world champion to be involved in a

870
01:07:43.320 --> 01:07:47.760
major angle at the show, and
you know, I get it. I

871
01:07:47.800 --> 01:07:51.079
get it. Cmpunk got hurt,
Seth lost his big match, so this

872
01:07:51.159 --> 01:07:54.639
is the This is their way of
getting him in the mix and making it

873
01:07:54.719 --> 01:08:03.119
up to him. Basically, that's
why they're doing it. Eight nine Tech

874
01:08:03.880 --> 01:08:10.039
Why Angle and Jericho did not win
the Royal Rumble, It's a good question.

875
01:08:11.000 --> 01:08:17.600
I'm surprised at Kurt Angle never won
a Royal Rumble before. Libido Bell

876
01:08:18.520 --> 01:08:28.479
says new Solo Monster Surge flavors have
dropped by rent or Sell, Bandberry Collision,

877
01:08:28.800 --> 01:08:33.880
Silver Tower, Sour Apple, Party, Hard Lemon. I am very

878
01:08:33.920 --> 01:08:39.000
partial to the Silver Tower Sour Apple. I like that. I like that

879
01:08:39.159 --> 01:08:48.800
very much. Shout out to Silver
Tower wherever he may be. Solomaster looks

880
01:08:48.840 --> 01:08:53.000
like the commissioner from House of Glory. I do look a little bit like

881
01:08:53.039 --> 01:08:57.159
that guy, right. That guy's
a prick though. Alex with the five

882
01:08:57.239 --> 01:09:00.880
dollars super chat with Triple H signing
three of the biggest names in the industry

883
01:09:00.880 --> 01:09:04.159
and Cody Punk and car Guild.
Who do you think will be the fourth

884
01:09:04.239 --> 01:09:10.239
name to come to WWE. I
think Ricky Starks is coming, but he

885
01:09:10.279 --> 01:09:14.800
doesn't really, you know, I
wouldn't call him at the moment, you

886
01:09:14.840 --> 01:09:16.840
know, the one of the biggest
names in the indury. I like Ricky,

887
01:09:16.880 --> 01:09:19.960
but he ain't one of the biggest
names in the industry. I still

888
01:09:20.000 --> 01:09:24.800
say he's as good as gone when
his contract comes due, it may not

889
01:09:24.880 --> 01:09:27.960
be for a few years. I
don't know what his contract status is.

890
01:09:30.359 --> 01:09:32.079
You know, big names and don't
forget they also, you know, Tony

891
01:09:32.119 --> 01:09:36.760
Khan took Okada off the market.
He is expected to be in aw shortly

892
01:09:38.119 --> 01:09:45.119
he took Osprey off the market.
I kind of think what other really big

893
01:09:45.199 --> 01:09:55.600
name that Triple H and Nick Con
could swipe from a w You know,

894
01:09:55.680 --> 01:09:57.880
I don't know. I mean,
the people that I usually think about are

895
01:09:57.880 --> 01:10:01.319
people again like like a Ricky Star
Award Low, but those are not the

896
01:10:01.319 --> 01:10:06.159
biggest names in the industry, So
I don't know what that other big name

897
01:10:06.199 --> 01:10:10.720
would be that would even be available
to make the jump over to WWE.

898
01:10:13.600 --> 01:10:15.319
It could be that the pendulum is
starting to swing in the other direction.

899
01:10:17.199 --> 01:10:20.279
Not that I think Drew McIntyre is
going anywhere, because I don't, but

900
01:10:21.000 --> 01:10:25.960
he still has not signed his contract
yet. Seamus supposedly has a contract coming

901
01:10:26.039 --> 01:10:31.960
up. Maybe the pendulum starts to
swing back the other way. But if

902
01:10:31.960 --> 01:10:36.920
I had a name one person,
I would say Julia, and some people

903
01:10:36.960 --> 01:10:42.319
would go Julia, that's not a
big name. Well in some parts of

904
01:10:42.319 --> 01:10:45.720
the world, she is, and
I fully expect her to be in WWE

905
01:10:45.840 --> 01:10:53.960
later this year. So there you
go, Julia. True individual ninety on

906
01:10:54.079 --> 01:11:00.920
behalf of the Mio fam Welcome solo. Thank you very much. I am

907
01:11:00.960 --> 01:11:04.920
now the proud owner of a Meu
Mini Plus. I'm gonna try to put

908
01:11:04.960 --> 01:11:09.840
a little video together for you,
a little review video for it, sometime

909
01:11:09.880 --> 01:11:14.159
in the next few weeks, so
I will hopefully be able to do that

910
01:11:14.199 --> 01:11:16.439
for you. It's my new retro
handheld, which I have not had the

911
01:11:16.439 --> 01:11:19.720
time to really go two hands on
with it yet, but I am very

912
01:11:19.800 --> 01:11:26.640
much looking forward to diving into some
retro games on my little device. I

913
01:11:26.720 --> 01:11:32.159
have much to learn. Ted Evans
thought on Camille, I haven't seen much

914
01:11:32.199 --> 01:11:36.640
of her, just as all This's
bodyguard, Well that was when I first

915
01:11:36.720 --> 01:11:42.239
saw or she was the bodyguard for
All This in his crew in the NWA.

916
01:11:42.880 --> 01:11:45.880
This is when I was watching NWA
Power when Power first launched, and

917
01:11:46.000 --> 01:11:49.560
her whole thing is very much like
China, where she didn't speak. She

918
01:11:49.720 --> 01:11:54.880
just stood there and was intimidated.
But she never spoke. I didn't even

919
01:11:54.960 --> 01:11:58.800
know what her voice sounded. And
that went on for a while and then

920
01:11:58.800 --> 01:12:01.399
eventually, you know, broke away
from that, and then she spent over

921
01:12:01.479 --> 01:12:06.439
I think was it five hundred something
days as the NWA Women's World Champion.

922
01:12:06.479 --> 01:12:13.119
And she's good. She's good.
You can see how she's improved over time,

923
01:12:13.840 --> 01:12:15.960
the more experienced that she had,
the more time she spent as the

924
01:12:16.079 --> 01:12:23.359
champion, and all signs point to
her likely ending up in AW. So

925
01:12:23.439 --> 01:12:27.640
that would be another big pickup in
the women's division for Tony Khan. I

926
01:12:27.680 --> 01:12:30.800
guess he's going to have to have
more women's matches on the show. He

927
01:12:30.840 --> 01:12:32.800
could pick up all the women's talent
he wants to. I still find it

928
01:12:32.880 --> 01:12:38.359
hilarious that on most weeks dynam might
we get one women's match. He could

929
01:12:38.399 --> 01:12:42.600
sign ten more women and we'll still
get the one women's match on Wednesdays.

930
01:12:42.600 --> 01:12:45.199
And it's like, where do these
women go? Is he storing them away

931
01:12:45.279 --> 01:12:50.479
just on Fridays and Saturday? Or
in ring of Honor? Like where Athena

932
01:12:50.600 --> 01:12:54.680
is being held captive? Like where
does he put all of them? I

933
01:12:54.680 --> 01:12:58.359
don't know. I'll tell you what. Mercedes ain't gonna stand for that shit.

934
01:12:58.960 --> 01:13:01.920
You think Mercedes is gonna come to
AW and be relegated to fucking rampage

935
01:13:01.960 --> 01:13:06.159
and collision, You got another thing
coming. Believe me, She'll be on

936
01:13:06.239 --> 01:13:14.319
Dynamite. She'll be on Dynamite in
a few weeks and b com C clearly,

937
01:13:15.119 --> 01:13:16.880
Hey, solo. I want to
thank you for being an amazing person.

938
01:13:17.800 --> 01:13:20.439
Your mom would be proud and is
watching her son from heaving. Hey,

939
01:13:20.439 --> 01:13:26.199
thank you very much. That's very
kind of use b com C clearly,

940
01:13:26.239 --> 01:13:33.279
thank you very much, very nice
of you. So thank you for

941
01:13:33.520 --> 01:13:39.640
the questions and thank you for the
support. Always very much appreciated from you

942
01:13:39.720 --> 01:13:43.159
guys. The goal for be the
booker was four hundred, and believe it

943
01:13:43.239 --> 01:13:47.079
or not, I'm actually surprised.
I thought that this was kind of be

944
01:13:47.159 --> 01:13:50.600
kind of a dead night because just
you know, pay per view in a

945
01:13:50.600 --> 01:13:56.439
few hours, probably not as many
people tuned into a tape show. But

946
01:13:56.600 --> 01:13:59.880
you killed it. You smashed it. We broke four hundred. So let's

947
01:13:59.880 --> 01:14:03.840
go ahead and be the booker.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time

948
01:14:04.000 --> 01:14:13.039
to be the booker. You did
it. You came through like you guys

949
01:14:13.079 --> 01:14:19.119
always do. So now I get
to come through for you. We get

950
01:14:19.119 --> 01:14:25.479
to book some matches. How's that
sound? I think that sounds great.

951
01:14:27.439 --> 01:14:31.239
Dynamite from Boston is coming up in
a few way. Boston. They're going

952
01:14:31.319 --> 01:14:36.119
to be in basted Mercedes is going
to be in Boston. I can't wait

953
01:14:38.319 --> 01:14:42.800
the down in bastin I can't do
it. I can't do a Boston accent.

954
01:14:43.840 --> 01:14:45.079
Look at this. I watched the
Department. I think I could do

955
01:14:45.079 --> 01:14:49.560
a Boston accent all of a sudden. All right, we begin with the

956
01:14:49.680 --> 01:15:02.439
Hardy Boys, Matt and Jeff,
Matt and Jeff Hardy. Who oh who

957
01:15:02.479 --> 01:15:05.880
will the Hardies be stepping into the
ring with? Could it be edgend Christian?

958
01:15:05.960 --> 01:15:12.640
Could it be the Dudley Boys?
Could it be the Young Bucks?

959
01:15:12.640 --> 01:15:18.319
Gonna be the hard Ease again to
the real Americans, Jack Swagger and Cesara,

960
01:15:19.960 --> 01:15:29.319
two fine tag teams. Now refresh
my memory? Did we have the

961
01:15:29.439 --> 01:15:33.880
clean sweep on Monday and Wednesday?
Because I think we did. I'm just

962
01:15:33.960 --> 01:15:39.560
asking a question. I'm not making
any more comments. I'm gonna I'm not

963
01:15:39.560 --> 01:15:43.920
gonna put hecks on it. I'm
just asking. I couldn't remember, all

964
01:15:44.000 --> 01:15:48.800
right, Women's be the booker.
We begin with Charlotte Flair, the thirty

965
01:15:48.880 --> 01:15:54.840
eight time Women's Champion, working hard
to try to come back from her torn

966
01:15:54.880 --> 01:15:59.800
acl Supposedly she is a head of
schedule. She is. It's all that

967
01:16:00.000 --> 01:16:04.960
the genetics, all of her fine
genetics, are going to help get her

968
01:16:04.960 --> 01:16:10.279
back into the ring a lot sooner. It's possible. Some people just have

969
01:16:10.319 --> 01:16:12.880
it in their jeans. Man,
They're able to heal up quicker from injuries.

970
01:16:14.399 --> 01:16:16.439
I don't know how her father got
through an entire career and wrestled as

971
01:16:16.479 --> 01:16:21.600
many matches as he did without having
a serious injury. It kind of defies

972
01:16:21.640 --> 01:16:27.800
logic. Biggest injury Rick Flair ever
had didn't come in the ring. It

973
01:16:27.840 --> 01:16:31.720
came in an airplane. All right, Charlotte Flair is going to be stepping

974
01:16:31.760 --> 01:16:39.960
into the ring against thunder Rosa.
Here's a match for you. If you

975
01:16:40.000 --> 01:16:45.279
ever had a WWE AEW forbidden door. What do you think about that match?

976
01:16:45.359 --> 01:16:49.800
Charlotte Flair and thunder Rosa. I
like that match. I like that

977
01:16:49.840 --> 01:16:58.840
match very much. And now the
men. We moved to mens be the

978
01:16:58.880 --> 01:17:04.039
booker. This is potentially a historic
week here. We get a bell here,

979
01:17:04.119 --> 01:17:06.399
men, this this could be it
right here. I don't want to

980
01:17:06.399 --> 01:17:11.239
say anything. I don't want to
say anything. I've already said too much.

981
01:17:15.239 --> 01:17:24.680
We begin with CM Punk. How
about that? CM Punk is kicking

982
01:17:24.760 --> 01:17:31.920
us off in Men's be the booker. We could be on the precipice of

983
01:17:32.039 --> 01:17:41.359
history here CM Punk. That's a
big name. That's a big name.

984
01:17:44.239 --> 01:17:53.399
CM Punk against j Brisco. Wait
what wait? Wait, hold on,

985
01:17:53.479 --> 01:17:56.680
hold on, hold on second,
wait, time out, time out.

986
01:17:57.479 --> 01:18:02.079
I'm being told, Oh my god, I'm being told that CM Punk has

987
01:18:02.239 --> 01:18:09.439
tore his bicep. CM Punk has
been injured. This fucking guy, CM

988
01:18:09.439 --> 01:18:13.079
Punk was so excited about this match
he jumped up off the couch and he

989
01:18:13.159 --> 01:18:19.279
tore a muscle in his body.
Cmpunk is unable to compete and must be

990
01:18:19.359 --> 01:18:24.720
replaced in be the booker because this
fucking guy can't stay healthy. Do you

991
01:18:24.720 --> 01:18:29.079
believe this guy? Do you believe
this guy? We were this close,

992
01:18:30.439 --> 01:18:34.720
We were this close. Jay Brisco
and CM Punk would have been automatic automatic,

993
01:18:35.640 --> 01:18:44.159
but Phil got hurt. He can't
stay healthy, so he has to

994
01:18:44.239 --> 01:18:59.800
be replaced. So it's gonna be
Jay Briscoe stepping into the ring with brock

995
01:19:00.640 --> 01:19:14.439
Lesner. Brock Lesner and Jay Brisco
in the main event. And that is

996
01:19:14.479 --> 01:19:21.600
a clean sweep. Not only is
that a clean sweep for tonight, that

997
01:19:23.039 --> 01:19:28.600
is our first clean sweep of the
entire week. We ran the table Monday

998
01:19:28.720 --> 01:19:32.920
night, all bells, Wednesday night, all bells, Friday night, all

999
01:19:33.000 --> 01:19:39.199
bells, Friday night, all balls. That's what we did tonight. Fucking

1000
01:19:39.319 --> 01:19:44.000
right that right there, is the
best week of being the booker I ever

1001
01:19:44.079 --> 01:19:47.960
booked, and you like that shit. Not even c punk could ruin this

1002
01:19:48.039 --> 01:19:53.840
installment to be the booker him and
his injuries. Fucking glass. This guy,

1003
01:19:55.880 --> 01:19:59.680
he was so excited he jumped up
and just right like Sammy's Ain that

1004
01:19:59.720 --> 01:20:02.159
time on RAW when he was flinging
his arms around and he tore his rotator

1005
01:20:02.239 --> 01:20:08.479
cuff. He got so excited.
Yeah, he forgets he's he's in his

1006
01:20:08.560 --> 01:20:15.000
mid forties. He can't be doing
that. But not even CM punk could

1007
01:20:15.000 --> 01:20:18.840
screw things up. There you go. Congrats. I'm happy that you were

1008
01:20:18.880 --> 01:20:24.520
all here to sharing this history with
me. All right, let's get back

1009
01:20:24.520 --> 01:20:27.960
to the remaining super chats. Here. We got a few more. Let

1010
01:20:27.960 --> 01:20:34.840
me reload this yere, make sure
I don't miss any Here we go.

1011
01:20:36.319 --> 01:20:46.039
We got true individual by sell Rent
on the best wrestling arcade game Superstars wrestle

1012
01:20:46.119 --> 01:20:54.000
Fest, WrestleMania the Arcade wrestle Fest. That was easy, That was very

1013
01:20:54.000 --> 01:20:59.199
simple. If you saw the pictures. By the way, I did post

1014
01:20:59.239 --> 01:21:02.760
a couple of pictures on my Twitter
of the me U mini device. You

1015
01:21:02.840 --> 01:21:06.199
saw the first game I put on
there was wrestle Fest. So now I

1016
01:21:06.199 --> 01:21:13.039
can at wrestle Fest in my pocket
anytime I want to. The answer is

1017
01:21:13.039 --> 01:21:16.159
wrestle Fest MLK. I don't see
it. It's not in the list.

1018
01:21:16.159 --> 01:21:18.279
That are you sure it went through
because I don't see it. It's not

1019
01:21:18.319 --> 01:21:26.039
coming up here unless it didn't push
through yet. It's possible, but I

1020
01:21:26.039 --> 01:21:29.479
don't see it. But I do
see Luise. Louise, thank you for

1021
01:21:29.520 --> 01:21:32.119
the five Our boy, Luis says, I finally decided this morning to stay

1022
01:21:32.239 --> 01:21:38.279
up to watch Elimination Chamber at two
o'clock in the morning despite me working tomorrow.

1023
01:21:39.760 --> 01:21:44.640
Well, that's right, because Louise
is out in California. If you

1024
01:21:44.640 --> 01:21:48.239
don't know Luise, Luis is always
a Luis used to call in too when

1025
01:21:48.239 --> 01:21:53.560
I had to call in the call
ins on the show, and Louise is

1026
01:21:53.600 --> 01:21:57.560
always full of energy. So I
can only imagine how wired this man is

1027
01:21:57.600 --> 01:22:00.800
going to be if he stays up
and pulls an all nighter and does not

1028
01:22:00.840 --> 01:22:03.199
get any sleep whatsoever, and then
goes into work. I would not want

1029
01:22:03.239 --> 01:22:08.079
to be in the office. When
you walk in, Luise is gonna be

1030
01:22:08.119 --> 01:22:12.479
He's gonna be drinking sixteen cups of
coffee. He's going to have five energy

1031
01:22:12.560 --> 01:22:15.000
drinks in him. There's no telling
what this man is going to do.

1032
01:22:18.119 --> 01:22:25.560
Kreflow half dollar with the five dollars. I'm old enough to remember the Be

1033
01:22:25.640 --> 01:22:30.359
the Booker days of Rosa Mendez against
Stephanie McMahon. Well, there's certain names

1034
01:22:30.359 --> 01:22:33.399
that you will no longer find him
Be the Booker because I got tired of

1035
01:22:33.439 --> 01:22:36.199
seeing those same names over and over
again. See, but those were in

1036
01:22:36.199 --> 01:22:40.920
the that was in the early days
when our boys infamous shout out to his

1037
01:22:41.000 --> 01:22:45.239
infamous HD. We used to use
his animation before I went and created my

1038
01:22:45.279 --> 01:22:48.640
own, and I just added so
many more names. But yeah, back

1039
01:22:48.680 --> 01:22:54.039
then we were landing out a lot
of the same names over and over and

1040
01:22:54.079 --> 01:22:57.319
over again, and it was like, you know what, I've had about

1041
01:22:57.399 --> 01:23:01.600
enough of these names, going to
create my own and put my own names

1042
01:23:01.640 --> 01:23:09.600
in there. That is what we
did. If you knew the wrestle Fest

1043
01:23:09.800 --> 01:23:13.600
mechanic, getting the first shot in
was game over. Well, I'll tell

1044
01:23:13.600 --> 01:23:17.279
you what's cool though, I'll tell
you what's cool about this me and Mini

1045
01:23:17.439 --> 01:23:20.399
and probably it's the same way on
a lot of these retro handhelds, because

1046
01:23:20.399 --> 01:23:26.279
there's again, this is this whole
world of retro handheld devices that I wasn't

1047
01:23:26.319 --> 01:23:30.600
really familiar with up until a few
weeks ago. But what's cool is that

1048
01:23:30.720 --> 01:23:35.399
I've added all the cheats as well
to the directory. So if I want

1049
01:23:35.479 --> 01:23:41.239
to activate the cheats for every game, you got to go in and gotta

1050
01:23:41.279 --> 01:23:43.720
activate. There's like a way to
do it. But like I can do

1051
01:23:43.800 --> 01:23:47.560
that. And in the arcade games, because they have different emulators and you

1052
01:23:47.640 --> 01:23:50.159
choose the one you want to play. If you want to play Ans,

1053
01:23:50.720 --> 01:23:56.239
you choose Anys. If you want
Genesis, you choose Genesis and Arcade.

1054
01:23:56.239 --> 01:24:00.880
It's the same way. And I
love it because I may to open the

1055
01:24:00.520 --> 01:24:05.079
option screen on some of the Arcade
games and it said dip switches. That

1056
01:24:05.199 --> 01:24:10.000
was one of the options. And
when I saw dip switches, I said,

1057
01:24:10.039 --> 01:24:13.079
man, that takes me back because
I remember, you know, when

1058
01:24:13.079 --> 01:24:15.800
you used to be at the arcade, there was that switch. It was

1059
01:24:15.840 --> 01:24:17.640
either in the back of the arcade
or on top of it. Some of

1060
01:24:17.680 --> 01:24:21.119
them were on top, but like, if you flip that switch, I

1061
01:24:21.119 --> 01:24:26.279
think that was the dip switch,
it would bring up a special menu and

1062
01:24:26.359 --> 01:24:29.520
I don't remember if there were cheets
in there, but like it was like

1063
01:24:29.560 --> 01:24:33.000
the secret menu, and I'm like
man dip switches. I haven't heard that

1064
01:24:33.119 --> 01:24:40.159
in forever, and it's just really
cool just to have all access to all

1065
01:24:40.199 --> 01:24:44.119
these games on a three and a
half inch screen and the screen looks great,

1066
01:24:44.279 --> 01:24:45.479
but to have it on a three
and a half inch screen, just

1067
01:24:45.560 --> 01:24:48.399
like in the palm of your hand, in your pocket at all times.

1068
01:24:49.840 --> 01:24:56.119
He's just unbelievable. I went from
playing the game Boy version of Tetris,

1069
01:24:57.640 --> 01:25:00.359
which was a big which was a
big hit with me when I was younger.

1070
01:25:00.640 --> 01:25:06.359
I can go from playing the game
Boy version of Tetris to playing PlayStation

1071
01:25:06.479 --> 01:25:10.239
one guy I was playing what was
the Need for Speed or something? I

1072
01:25:10.279 --> 01:25:15.600
was playing X Men versus Street Fighter, and he just switched back and forth

1073
01:25:15.640 --> 01:25:24.399
between them. It's amazing. It's
fantastic. Don't forget the Simpsons arcade.

1074
01:25:25.760 --> 01:25:29.439
Yeah, I didn't play that as
often. The actual physical arcades that I

1075
01:25:29.560 --> 01:25:32.319
used to be uh or were very
popular with me and my friends, and

1076
01:25:32.359 --> 01:25:36.439
there was always a crowd. The
one that always, no matter what,

1077
01:25:36.880 --> 01:25:42.800
always had a crowd around it was
Mortal Kombat two, Mortal Kombat too.

1078
01:25:42.840 --> 01:25:45.640
I mean there were competitions, there
were people like the older kids would be

1079
01:25:45.640 --> 01:25:48.000
there and they would like bully us, and they would be there, and

1080
01:25:48.039 --> 01:25:51.159
there was one kid who used to
smoke, and I'll never forget he would

1081
01:25:51.159 --> 01:25:57.039
put the cigarette down on the controls
and there was like a cigarette hole that

1082
01:25:57.199 --> 01:26:00.720
was burned into the controls, and
this fucking guy, I would just stand

1083
01:26:00.720 --> 01:26:03.560
there and he would just beat us
over and over in this game, and

1084
01:26:04.359 --> 01:26:08.640
you know, to the point where
like I wanted to like plot to like

1085
01:26:08.720 --> 01:26:12.159
kill this man. But it was
fun though, you know. Mortal Kombat

1086
01:26:12.159 --> 01:26:17.720
two was always popular, wressele Fest
was popular, street Fighter Turtles and Time

1087
01:26:18.000 --> 01:26:24.600
the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles one that
was always popular. I think those are

1088
01:26:24.640 --> 01:26:30.960
the main ones really that I that
I remember. The one thing I don't

1089
01:26:30.960 --> 01:26:33.359
think I can get that I wish
I could, and if I can,

1090
01:26:33.479 --> 01:26:45.359
then you know, by all means
some solomn Monster. Solo Monster remembers Pong.

1091
01:26:45.680 --> 01:26:47.880
He is that old. I do
remember Pong, and there's nothing wrong

1092
01:26:47.920 --> 01:26:51.720
with Pong. Pong is great.
I could probably get Pong on there too,

1093
01:26:51.720 --> 01:26:57.079
I just haven't tried. Pong was
for the Atari. What I was

1094
01:26:57.119 --> 01:27:02.520
gonna say is, though I would
love to play either Cruising USA or Daytona

1095
01:27:02.640 --> 01:27:10.319
USA, I haven't been able to
find those. So if there are ROMs

1096
01:27:10.359 --> 01:27:13.039
out there that will work on this
device, I would love to know,

1097
01:27:13.560 --> 01:27:17.079
and I would love to know which
emulator it's for. Cruising USA and Daytona

1098
01:27:17.199 --> 01:27:25.520
USA were fucking great. Those were
great. Pitfall, Yeah, I was

1099
01:27:25.560 --> 01:27:29.880
playing jungle Hunt, remember jungle Hunt. I was playing jungle Hunt for the

1100
01:27:29.880 --> 01:27:33.760
Atari earlier. I only played for
like ten minutes though, because I just

1101
01:27:33.840 --> 01:27:38.199
I always have so much work to
do. But at some point I'll sit

1102
01:27:38.239 --> 01:27:44.079
here and find the time to put
a video together for you guys. Let

1103
01:27:44.119 --> 01:27:48.359
you guys know where you can also
buy these things. Daytona was on Saturn

1104
01:27:48.479 --> 01:27:51.640
and Cruising was on N sixty four. Well that doesn't do me any good.

1105
01:27:53.039 --> 01:27:57.319
Saturn and N sixty four are like
the two fucking consoles that don't work

1106
01:27:57.359 --> 01:28:04.039
on there. Yeah, I was
because I was looking for WCWNWO Revenge and

1107
01:28:04.439 --> 01:28:10.000
realized it was N sixty four and
you can't get N sixty four games on

1108
01:28:10.039 --> 01:28:14.119
there, So I was like,
ah, I knew that it was too

1109
01:28:14.159 --> 01:28:19.960
good to be true. Love Lie
says, what is your favorite side dish?

1110
01:28:19.960 --> 01:28:30.600
Her name is Amanda May's The Great
seven five seven says besides Montreal,

1111
01:28:30.880 --> 01:28:35.520
what do you think are the most
over talked about things in wrestling, like

1112
01:28:35.720 --> 01:28:40.520
matches, eras, moments, et
cetera that make you grown at the mere

1113
01:28:40.600 --> 01:28:45.000
mention of it. Montreal is easily
number one. I'm honestly, I'm at

1114
01:28:45.039 --> 01:28:47.880
the point where the Monday Night War
makes me grown. Whenever I hear somebody

1115
01:28:47.880 --> 01:28:53.439
talking about the Monday Night War or
we're having another conversation with people from that

1116
01:28:53.560 --> 01:28:57.720
time about the Monday Night War,
I want a fucking gag. Yes,

1117
01:28:57.800 --> 01:29:00.199
it was a very fun time I
lived through. It was fantastic. We'll

1118
01:29:00.239 --> 01:29:04.560
never have another time like that again, probably with that level of competition where

1119
01:29:04.560 --> 01:29:08.600
it really was neck and neck like
that for a while, and they were

1120
01:29:08.640 --> 01:29:12.680
on cable television combining for ten million
and eleven million viewers a week. Like

1121
01:29:12.720 --> 01:29:16.960
that will never ever happen again.
But I'm sick to death of hearing about

1122
01:29:17.000 --> 01:29:24.720
it and the glorification of it.
Like we get it enough. We probably

1123
01:29:24.760 --> 01:29:27.920
won't have to hear about it too
much anymore since Vince McMahon was all over

1124
01:29:27.960 --> 01:29:30.560
it, so I doubt we're going
to be seeing that footage on TV anytime

1125
01:29:30.600 --> 01:29:38.039
soon. Where do you buy the
mini handheld gaming system? Well, there

1126
01:29:38.079 --> 01:29:42.960
are multiple ones I got mine off
Amazon, so you can go to Amazon

1127
01:29:43.159 --> 01:29:47.920
find them there. If you can
get prime shipping. Amazon's you know,

1128
01:29:48.039 --> 01:29:51.680
Amazon makes returns and exchange is very
easy. I had to actually return the

1129
01:29:51.720 --> 01:29:57.760
first one because the screen was all
fucked up, and I got a replacement

1130
01:29:57.840 --> 01:30:01.359
unit within four days. So,
but there's a bunch of different websites.

1131
01:30:01.359 --> 01:30:04.079
Again, if I do a video, I'll make sure I mention what some

1132
01:30:04.159 --> 01:30:09.680
of the sites are. Ah,
there's one called keep Retro. I think

1133
01:30:09.720 --> 01:30:14.119
it's keepretro dot com. It's a
bunch of them. Just search Google is

1134
01:30:14.119 --> 01:30:17.199
your friend. I promise you you're
gonna find tons of different websites. Etsy.

1135
01:30:17.800 --> 01:30:23.560
Etsy has a ton of great accessories
for this thing too. That'll be

1136
01:30:23.600 --> 01:30:28.600
the next thing I look into.
They actually have a grip. It's kind

1137
01:30:28.600 --> 01:30:31.840
of in the shape of like a
controller, like a PS five controller,

1138
01:30:31.880 --> 01:30:35.920
but it's like foam. It's like
people three D make them at home and

1139
01:30:36.000 --> 01:30:40.720
you take the little device because the
media is very small and you just stick

1140
01:30:40.760 --> 01:30:43.039
it in the grip and so if
you want to control it like that,

1141
01:30:44.039 --> 01:30:46.920
you can do that. They have
magnetic charging stands. People come up with

1142
01:30:46.960 --> 01:30:51.119
their own different colored buttons. If
you want to open up the device and

1143
01:30:51.199 --> 01:30:56.159
tear it down and take the buttons
out. I'm not messing around with it.

1144
01:30:56.239 --> 01:31:00.600
But people customize them in all kinds
of ways. They make skin for

1145
01:31:00.640 --> 01:31:04.319
it. It's pretty badass, actually, the way some people customize these things.

1146
01:31:08.479 --> 01:31:12.199
Or was I spoiled as a child
because it seems like I had everything?

1147
01:31:13.279 --> 01:31:17.319
No, I just had great parents
who even though they didn't have a

1148
01:31:17.319 --> 01:31:24.640
pot to piss, and they made
sure their kids were happy enough. Believe

1149
01:31:24.640 --> 01:31:30.399
me, there were plenty of things
I didn't have, but I was fortunate

1150
01:31:30.439 --> 01:31:38.000
that I had good parents who bought
me some cool stuff. That's it.

1151
01:31:39.840 --> 01:31:45.159
Let's see here, who we got? Who we got? Kreflow, kreflow

1152
01:31:45.199 --> 01:31:49.680
has one more. I remember Luis
used to offer you the results of Championship

1153
01:31:49.720 --> 01:31:57.800
Wrestling from Hollywood, and you would
just roll your eyes in frustration because nobody

1154
01:31:57.880 --> 01:32:01.239
was watching Championship Wrestling from hollyod what
unless they lived in the area locally,

1155
01:32:02.479 --> 01:32:08.600
So I didn't know what he was
talking about. He seemed to think that

1156
01:32:08.640 --> 01:32:11.359
everybody knew what was going on there
at any given moment. I said,

1157
01:32:11.439 --> 01:32:17.199
Luis, nobody knows, nobody cares, nobody cares. But yeah, I'm

1158
01:32:17.239 --> 01:32:21.319
not. I'm not really good at
like modding. I know some people take

1159
01:32:21.359 --> 01:32:27.960
their devices and they just again,
some of the things they create are really

1160
01:32:28.000 --> 01:32:30.600
really cool, but you got to
know what you're doing. You got to

1161
01:32:30.640 --> 01:32:34.600
tear these things down. And yeah, you gotta be very careful. You're

1162
01:32:34.600 --> 01:32:40.960
talking about a device that it's very
cool, the power that it does have,

1163
01:32:41.399 --> 01:32:44.560
but it's not like a smartphone.
You know, these things are not

1164
01:32:44.640 --> 01:32:47.960
that expensive, Like I got my
unit for like seventy dollars. Like a

1165
01:32:47.960 --> 01:32:53.000
lot of these handhelds are in that
fifty to one hundred dollars range. Some

1166
01:32:53.079 --> 01:32:57.000
of them could be like between one
hundred and two hundred, but most of

1167
01:32:57.039 --> 01:33:00.199
them are even cheaper than that.
But you kind of get what you pay

1168
01:33:00.199 --> 01:33:02.479
for. And so my concern is
if I start opening this thing up and

1169
01:33:02.520 --> 01:33:06.960
tearing it down and you know,
one wrong move and the screen won't turn

1170
01:33:08.000 --> 01:33:12.720
on or something. So I'm content
with it the way it is right now,

1171
01:33:12.800 --> 01:33:18.039
but there are people that do some
pretty cool stuff with it. Yes,

1172
01:33:18.079 --> 01:33:21.000
that is very important. If you
get one of these, including the

1173
01:33:21.000 --> 01:33:27.159
one that I got, they come
with a micro SD card and a card

1174
01:33:27.239 --> 01:33:30.079
reader for you to plug into your
computer so you can transfer ROMs and games

1175
01:33:30.119 --> 01:33:33.560
back and forth. Don't use the
card that comes with it. It is

1176
01:33:33.960 --> 01:33:39.800
fucking garbage. It will fail.
It will absolutely fail on you. The

1177
01:33:39.840 --> 01:33:42.960
first thing I did I read about
that. I knew what I was getting

1178
01:33:42.960 --> 01:33:45.640
myself into. So as soon as
I got it, the chip that came

1179
01:33:45.680 --> 01:33:48.960
in the device, which I think
was preloaded with games and stuff, first

1180
01:33:49.000 --> 01:33:53.159
thing I did, I took it
out. I threw it aside. I

1181
01:33:53.199 --> 01:33:58.359
already bought my own card, much
a much bigger micro SD. Buy your

1182
01:33:58.399 --> 01:34:01.520
own, get yourself in name brand
sand disk or whatever. You know,

1183
01:34:01.560 --> 01:34:05.399
it's a name brand card. You
will be much better off. It will

1184
01:34:05.399 --> 01:34:10.520
not fail, it will not give
you any issues, and then you can

1185
01:34:10.560 --> 01:34:17.920
put whatever you want on there.
That is very good advice. There's one

1186
01:34:18.000 --> 01:34:26.119
more be the oh shit, you
know what, you're right, You're right.

1187
01:34:26.279 --> 01:34:30.880
Kareem Kareem points out, well,
you know what, though it depends

1188
01:34:30.960 --> 01:34:33.880
if we don't hit the likes goal
tomorrow, then we won't do be the

1189
01:34:33.880 --> 01:34:39.000
booker. But he does make an
interesting point. You know, we were

1190
01:34:39.039 --> 01:34:41.800
celebrating the fact, oh boy,
I think we've got ahead of ourselves.

1191
01:34:41.880 --> 01:34:46.359
We celebrated the fact that we we
just had our first like full week every

1192
01:34:46.439 --> 01:34:50.880
stream, right, all bells and
be the booker. But we have a

1193
01:34:50.920 --> 01:34:56.079
pay per view tomorrow, so we
actually have one more be the booker to

1194
01:34:56.159 --> 01:35:02.039
come in a few hours, which
technically counts for the this week. Oh

1195
01:35:02.079 --> 01:35:12.640
boy, I may have celebrated a
little too soon. Oh boy, I

1196
01:35:12.720 --> 01:35:17.560
knew it. I knew it was
too good to be true. I knew

1197
01:35:17.560 --> 01:35:21.640
it was too good to be true. I'm gonna make the gold bigger.

1198
01:35:21.680 --> 01:35:27.079
Don't worry. I'm gonna make the
gold at least five hundred for tomorrow.

1199
01:35:28.319 --> 01:35:32.000
So you guys better show up with
those thumbs ready to hit the thumbs up.

1200
01:35:36.720 --> 01:35:43.279
The green pianist says, Kareem is
the kid in class that reminds the

1201
01:35:43.359 --> 01:35:50.800
teacher about homework. That's so true. Tuta our, Tuta, you forgot,

1202
01:35:50.960 --> 01:35:59.079
you forgot to have hurt, hurt
for the three thumb. Yeah,

1203
01:35:59.600 --> 01:36:11.119
run run more anyway. Yeah,
I say, tomorrow, we hang Kareem

1204
01:36:11.159 --> 01:36:14.560
upside down and shake him so his
lunch money falls out of his pockets,

1205
01:36:14.560 --> 01:36:15.560
and then we give him a swirlly
and the toilet. How about that?

1206
01:36:17.000 --> 01:36:19.279
Then, Well, then we'll throw
him in his locker and we'll lock him

1207
01:36:19.279 --> 01:36:27.439
in there. That's what we're gonna
do to kareem, so yes later today

1208
01:36:27.840 --> 01:36:31.279
because it is after midnight here,
Actually in less than five hours, I

1209
01:36:31.279 --> 01:36:36.399
guess right, b the it would
be five am. So Elimination Chamber is

1210
01:36:36.439 --> 01:36:41.439
on in a few hours. If
you're joining late, I'm gonna get the

1211
01:36:41.479 --> 01:36:44.319
page up within the next half hour. I'm gonna get out of here in

1212
01:36:44.359 --> 01:36:46.439
a second, and I'm gonna put
the page up for Elimination Chambers so you

1213
01:36:46.439 --> 01:36:50.119
can get an early like, get
that thumbs up. Let's get those likes

1214
01:36:50.159 --> 01:36:54.039
up before I even go live tomorrow. If you want to do be the

1215
01:36:54.039 --> 01:36:59.079
booker twelve o'clock, I may set
it for twelve fifteen, but twelve o'clock

1216
01:36:59.319 --> 01:37:02.640
Eastern time, I will go live
on YouTube. So give you guys a

1217
01:37:02.720 --> 01:37:05.880
chance to watch the pay per view
and enjoy the show. Hopefully it's a

1218
01:37:05.920 --> 01:37:12.399
good one. A lot of big
names missing from the show, but that's

1219
01:37:12.439 --> 01:37:17.319
what happens when people are hurt.
It screws everything up, unfortunately. So

1220
01:37:17.640 --> 01:37:21.800
that is the plan for tomorrow.
I will be back with you in less

1221
01:37:21.800 --> 01:37:26.760
than twelve hours and we'll talk about
the Chamber. And also on Sunday,

1222
01:37:26.840 --> 01:37:30.720
episode eight fifty of the Sound of
eight hundred and fifty. If you can

1223
01:37:30.760 --> 01:37:35.319
believe it. Thank you guys for
hanging out with me here late on a

1224
01:37:35.319 --> 01:37:40.000
Friday night. We had more people
actually than I was expecting, so thank

01:37:40.039 --> 01:37:44.520
