00:00:02.839 --> 00:00:14.000
This is ww Superstar Drew McIntyre and
you're listening to the WWE podcast God Show,

2
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:26.120
the one that everybody wants me to. Step three sixteen says, just

3
00:00:26.399 --> 00:00:33.600
clist your ass is my You're gonna
like mal Tree. Hey, everybody,

4
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.280
welcome to the w W podcast mail
Bag. It's Wednesday. I'll get a

5
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:41.600
second two thousand and twenty three.
Mister Missus cagwresting fanstill on sabbatical. Hopefully

6
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:45.320
they will rejoin us the next time
around. And it's just me, so

7
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:50.600
to too much of your disappointment.
It's still me. But we're gonna get

8
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:53.799
through all of your emails, all
of your voicemails as quickly as we can.

9
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:57.840
With it being Summer Slam week,
there's a lot to get through today.

10
00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:00.880
So if it sounds like I'm talking
a little faster than normal or abbreviating

11
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:06.840
my answers, it's simply in my
own self interest and self preservation of sleep.

12
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:10.680
So it's not no disrespect to anybody
who takes the time out of their

13
00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:14.599
day to call or email us,
as we really do appreciate it. But

14
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:19.879
as the podcast grows too, it's
going to be increasingly hard more difficult to

15
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:26.760
answer every single one at length,
so just kind of a forewarning. One

16
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:30.400
of the drawbacks of getting bigger means
that you know, not everyone will be

17
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:36.239
included. However, those of you
who are on Patreon, your spot is

18
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:40.200
secure, all right, So those
of you on Patreon, your spot is

19
00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:42.599
secure on the mailbag from now until
the end of time. Those of you

20
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:47.359
that are not on Patreon, I
still will make my best effort to get

21
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:49.439
through all of your emails, and
we're going to do that tonight. And

22
00:01:49.959 --> 00:01:55.680
speaking of Patreon, though, I've
got a few new patrons. Kyle Kobe,

23
00:01:55.760 --> 00:01:59.280
I believe you've been on here before, but if not, then welcome

24
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:01.000
back. If not, well for
the first time. And also we've got

25
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:07.680
a new patron, z ZM,
and welcome z. I hope you enjoy

26
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:10.840
your free trial and you get your
free shot out, and I hope you

27
00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:15.800
join us full time. I think
that you'll enjoy yourself. As Summer Slam

28
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:20.560
approaches on Sunday, or rather Saturday. Still getting used to the Saturday transition,

29
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:23.759
but you know what, I really
love the Saturday transition. I have

30
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:25.759
no complaints about it. Saturday is
a much better day, and honestly,

31
00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:30.120
I'm sure for the talent and all
of the staff who have to do ring

32
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:36.080
work and travel from production to everything
else. They probably love that buffer day

33
00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:38.639
instead of going directly from a pay
per view you know, that ends at

34
00:02:38.639 --> 00:02:43.960
eleven PM and then you have to
get on the road or get two hours

35
00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:47.599
of sleep and then go to another
city within a matter of hours. So

36
00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:52.000
the transition to a Saturday is better. Plus they don't have to compete with

37
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:57.240
football as much. I mean,
Saturday does have football college football. But

38
00:02:57.719 --> 00:03:02.840
anyway, we're gonna get to the
emails and do that. You know,

39
00:03:02.960 --> 00:03:07.680
let's start right now now for the
banter. Let's get to let's see Kyle.

40
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:13.240
This is Detroit, Detroit Kyle.
That's who Kyle Kobe. Okay,

41
00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:19.639
so this is Detroit Kyle or Kobe
ch seventy seven. Is some of us

42
00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:22.240
know him on discord chat. Oh
okay, I got it. There's there's

43
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:24.840
several Kyles, So forgive me.
This is He says, this is a

44
00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:30.800
very special weekend for me as I
will be attending my very first live event

45
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:36.280
ever at Summer Slam twenty twenty three. Yeah. I can't explain the amount

46
00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:38.800
of excitement and a feeling right now. I'm thirty eight years old, but

47
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:42.039
I feel like a ten year old
on the inside, all giddy and deliriously

48
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:49.199
happy. Wow, Kyle, your
first event is Summer Slam twenty twenty three.

49
00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:52.639
You're going to set The problem with
that is I mean, I'm jealous.

50
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:54.800
Of course, that's a personal problem, But what you're doing is setting

51
00:03:54.800 --> 00:04:00.199
the bar super high for yourself because
any event you subsequent attend is not going

52
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:05.240
to'd likely live up to this event. But enjoy yourself, my friend.

53
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:09.039
So you say I've been a fan
since the attitude there, but my parents

54
00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:13.759
were always restrictive with my wrestling viewing, especially with how raunchy and raucous wrestling

55
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:15.399
was at the time. Yeah,
I hear you. I had to hide

56
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:17.519
it from my parents for a little
while as well, and I don't actually

57
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:21.279
think my parents fully understood it until
I came home with a shirt that said,

58
00:04:23.279 --> 00:04:25.680
you know, want to see my
puppy or I want to see your

59
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:29.360
puppies or something, and it was
a Jerry the King Lawler line about the

60
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.959
Division w B at the time or
the Sucket T shirts. At that point,

61
00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:38.079
my parents started to go, what
the hell's he watching? But anyway,

62
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:41.079
so you're saying that I had to
sneak around and watch wrestling whenever they

63
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:44.879
weren't paying attention, and they went
through the trouble of banning certain channels from

64
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:47.199
our cable subscription so I couldn't watch. None of my friends growing up were

65
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:50.399
into wrestling either, which was tough
and lonely. I'd have to rely on

66
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:54.920
recaps of paper views afterwards to see
what happened, which is quite ironic considering

67
00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:58.199
I can't stand all the video recaps
they do today. As an adult,

68
00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:02.319
though, I finally found a community
that in the w Podcorse Podcast Discord Chat,

69
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:06.839
that I can share my love of
wrestling and chat during live shows with.

70
00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:10.560
So I'd like to do a big
shout out and thank you to everyone

71
00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:14.279
in the Discord Chat for hanging out
with me every Monday and Friday and ple

72
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:15.439
night. You have no idea how
much it truly means to me. I

73
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:17.759
won't name everyone in the discord Chat, but y'all know who you are,

74
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:21.680
so thank you. That's awesome.
I always say this, but I really

75
00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:25.720
wish I had I had time to
be in the discord Chat a little more.

76
00:05:25.879 --> 00:05:29.879
But I trust that you guys are
all being adults and doing what you

77
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:31.720
need to do, and let's talk
about wrestling. That's awesome. Yeah,

78
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:35.879
But as far as relating to your
situation, Kyle, I had friends.

79
00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:41.360
I mean, here's the thing in
the attitude are your best chance of finding

80
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:45.680
friends that liked wrestling was at its
highest because the wrestling was at its peak.

81
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:47.040
I mean, wrestling ratings were like
five times what they are now.

82
00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:53.959
It was mainstream pro wrestling. It
was its own entity. It was a

83
00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:00.319
monster. It was at times more
popular than traditional sports and your best time.

84
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:01.240
So if you didn't have friends that
at that point didn't like wrestling,

85
00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:06.639
you're certainly not going to find any
now well unlikely, although online I'm glad

86
00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:11.240
you have found a community. But
I remember, not that anyone asks me,

87
00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:15.319
but I I remember recording on VHS
RAW. I had to, like,

88
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:18.279
you know, hit the record button. We'd watch the USA network.

89
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:24.040
I try to cut out the commercials, and I my buddy, who didn't

90
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:27.079
have cable, I had to where
I didn't have to, I was nice

91
00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:32.319
enough to lend him Raw via VHS. That's I mean, some of you

92
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:35.519
don't even know what the hell VHS
is or didn't have to go through the

93
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:43.519
pain of VHS and don't even you
know, that's not a non factor for

94
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.399
you. But anyway, onto your
the rest of your email. So you're

95
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:50.000
saying, I expect great matches at
the Summer Slam with great in ring work,

96
00:06:50.560 --> 00:06:54.720
some of the builds have not been
that great. Well, here's the

97
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:59.279
thing I have learned throughout the Triple
H era, specifically the Triple H era,

98
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:05.120
that the build to the match doesn't
necessarily reflect the execution of the match,

99
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:11.560
meaning more often than not, in
the Triple Age regime, for the

100
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:15.920
better part of a year, I
have come away from the PLS feeling much

101
00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:20.079
better than going in and coming out
of it saying, Wow, that event

102
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:26.720
was amazing and way better than the
build. So I expect that same thing

103
00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:30.680
to happen in Summer's Lame. Okay, So Cody versus Brock, you're saying,

104
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:34.360
is not that great to build anyway, The Women's Triple Threat and the

105
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:39.160
Random Battle Royal they just announced last
week, Yeah, I'm amazing they have

106
00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:43.600
La Night in the damn Battle Royal. It's anyway, the talent on this

107
00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.199
card is undeniably good, but should
be put on a high level show.

108
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:49.759
The outcomes are very predictable. In
my opinion. Roman reigns to retain,

109
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:56.480
Seth retains and Damian probably cashes in. Oscar retains and Eo probably cashes in.

110
00:07:56.680 --> 00:08:01.399
Gunther retains. Cody wins the rubber
match, Ronda puts over Shana,

111
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:05.519
Logan Fall gets Logan Fall Logan,
Paul gets his first p l E win

112
00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:11.199
since last year's SummerSlam, and La
Knight wins the Battle Royal. I wouldn't

113
00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:13.439
be so sure about that. La
Knight has been losing everything. He's a

114
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:16.920
heavy favorite end so honestly, even
if he wins this, it means nothing

115
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:20.360
to me, absolutely nothing, And
we'll get to that in my preview and

116
00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:24.879
prediction show tomorrow night with Anthony DeMarco. But moving on, so, as

117
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:28.319
mister and missus casual wrestling fan would
say, Vegas agrees with me. I'm

118
00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:33.399
really hoping that wo throws us some
surprises and curveballs and changes up from the

119
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:35.759
current title holders. I don't mind
titles changing hands as long as there's a

120
00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:39.679
good reason or story behind it.
What I would love to see or rather,

121
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:43.480
here are the lyrics. I hear
voices in my head. They counsel

122
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:46.600
me, they understand, they talk
to me. I don't think I've ever

123
00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:50.960
just read that that's awesome and we
would see a Randy Orton return, But

124
00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:54.639
how would WW do it. Riddle
doesn't have a match of Summer Slam,

125
00:08:54.679 --> 00:08:58.679
so I don't know what match or
feud they could throw Randy into. They

126
00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:01.559
could just have him come out and
say back and that would be enough for

127
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:05.799
me. My only question for you
is what surprises you see happening at Summer

128
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:09.799
Slam. Just to help sparks some
ideas, here's a list of wrestlers we

129
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:13.159
haven't seen in a while that are
still in the roster. Excuse me if

130
00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:15.519
some of these have been on an
XT. I haven't been able to watch

131
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:18.279
recently. Alexi Bliss, well,
she's pregnant, so that's not happening.

132
00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:26.080
Aliah Elias, Omas Los Letharios,
Johnny Gargano, and the rest of his

133
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:30.360
group New Day, specifically Biggie.
By the way, I think Biggie has

134
00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:35.120
a big chance pun intended of appearing
at the event. By the way I

135
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:39.120
think Biggie is not that I've heard
anything specific, but it's been two damn

136
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:41.799
long and SummerSlam is a good platform. Biggie hasn't been around, and my

137
00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:45.679
god, it feels like three years, so I think Biggie is a big

138
00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:52.120
possibility. Let's see maximum male models, May Massey Man Swa, Piper Niven

139
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:56.279
and even Pat McAfee. Any NXT
call ups or possible returns, let me

140
00:09:56.279 --> 00:09:58.480
know what you think. Thank you
Matt for the rest and the rest of

141
00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:03.440
the creators the that are part of
the podcast. I know you all put

142
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:05.879
in the hours of work to provide
us with new content almost every day,

143
00:10:05.919 --> 00:10:09.639
and you have to be doing it
in your free time. Thanks everyone listening.

144
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:11.960
Much love to you, Detroit Kyle, Well, Detroy Kyle, thank

145
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:15.399
you so much. Yeah, this
is this is my free time, Like

146
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:16.840
right now is the time where I
want to be laying in my bed and

147
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:22.039
watching a UFO Documentary's that is what
I want to be doing right now,

148
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:26.840
rather what my body wants to do
right now. So yeah, you're absolutely

149
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:28.799
right, this is my free time. But you know what, you guys

150
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:31.200
to use your free time to listen
to this show. So we're all using

151
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.799
our free time or are we not
unless some of you listen to me at

152
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:37.399
work, in which you know,
hey, don't get fired. But okay,

153
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:39.320
as far as the Randy Orton return
goes, and I don't want to

154
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:41.600
give too much away because I have
a lot to say tomorrow night in my

155
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.279
preview and Prediction show with Anthony,
but I will say Randy Orton. You

156
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:50.120
know, every time we hear he's
coming back, we get immediate conflicting reports

157
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:52.840
that he's not, and the doctors
are telling him, don't come back,

158
00:10:52.879 --> 00:10:56.200
don't come back. But then I
heard just recently over the last twenty four

159
00:10:56.240 --> 00:11:01.279
hours that Randy Orton is in fact
lifting any looks more, he looks more

160
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:05.559
jack than ever, and he's gonna
just you know, go against what the

161
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:09.000
doctor's orders are. He's gonna return
anyway. So you know, if I

162
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:13.240
was to put a percentage of chance
of Randy Orton returning tomorrow night, I'd

163
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:16.480
say fifty fifty. I know that's
kind of a cop out, but it

164
00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:20.720
seems the reports have been fifty fifty. So going with what smart money tells

165
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:22.440
you, in fifty fifty chance Randy
Orton returns. Now, if he returns,

166
00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:26.360
what does he do? I think
I actually don't know if he'll return.

167
00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:30.519
With Riddle Rills not involved in anything. They seem to be down on

168
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:35.879
Riddle right now and not really particularly
getting behind him. I think you could

169
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:39.320
see Randy Orton return if he does, and r KO Roman reigns after he

170
00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:45.240
potentially wins against Jayuso, You're gonna
see I think a big return after the

171
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:46.960
very I mean, like, let's
be honest, this isn't a spoiler,

172
00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:52.759
very heavy favorite of Roman reigns beating
Jayuso, and I think Randy Orton could

173
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:56.480
be that candidate to come out and
you know r KO, Randy or Roman

174
00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:00.799
reigns. If you remember, there
is a story there. Randy Orton was

175
00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:05.200
injured quote unquote by the Bloodline before
he left last May? Was it last

176
00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.879
May? He was like, May, it's twenty two, so it's been

177
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:13.080
a over a year. There's a
story there. And Randy Orton versus Roman

178
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:16.960
reigns for the undispeeded championship. I'm
all for it. You can also have

179
00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:24.559
well Dwayne. Dwayne's name has been
floating out there. He continues to live

180
00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:28.159
on through Grayson Waller. So as
long as Grayson Waller keeps mentioning him,

181
00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:33.679
I'm going to keep talking about him. Okay the rock I said it only

182
00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:37.039
because Grayson Waller keeps mentioning it.
And you did the People's elbow this past

183
00:12:37.080 --> 00:12:41.639
week. If Grayson Waller brings out
the Rock as a part of a Grayson

184
00:12:41.639 --> 00:12:48.799
Waller effect, then you could absolutely
see finally a Roman Reigns and Rock confrontation,

185
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:50.879
the one we've all been waiting for
that could lead to a WrestleMania match,

186
00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:54.600
which obviously wouldn't take place to WrestleMania, and they could easily string it

187
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:58.879
out that long. Okay, Kyle, great stuff. I'm glad you found

188
00:12:58.879 --> 00:13:03.000
a community where you can be your
wrestling self. Right. There's no shame

189
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:05.879
here, there's no too big of
a fan. Enjoy SummerSlam, buddy.

190
00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:11.120
Okay, okay, Okay, where
are we going? We're going? This

191
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:16.200
is actually a New York Kyle.
See see there's too many Kyles. There's

192
00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:18.759
too many damn Kyles. Maybe I'll
just I'll give you guys different names or

193
00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:22.039
something. I don't know. Um, okay, so this is New York

194
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:28.759
Kyle, and he says, so
SummerSlam predictions. First, I think La

195
00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:31.440
Night will win the Summer Slam Battle
Royal match to get a future US title

196
00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:35.480
match. Now let me ask this
guy's and I really don't know the answer.

197
00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:41.799
What's at stake in this Battle Royal
Pride. Everyone that doesn't have anything

198
00:13:41.840 --> 00:13:46.120
going on just minutes in front of
a crowd. What what is the what

199
00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:50.759
is the carrot they're dangling in front
of these participants in the Battle Royal?

200
00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:58.279
Is it literally just an opportunity for
Pride or is it actually US title match?

201
00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:01.440
I don't know from I haven't heard
anything, But if it is a

202
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:03.120
US title match, then I think
Ella Knight actually does win, even though

203
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:07.799
it's a heavy favorite. But as
I said, La Knight being a heavy

204
00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:09.679
favorite over the last couple of months
has not worked out exactly the way fans

205
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:13.759
of thought. All right, next, I think Logan Paul will win against

206
00:14:13.799 --> 00:14:20.720
Ricochet, Shannon Basil will beat Ronda. I think Cody will beat Brock and

207
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:24.320
after the match, Bray Wyatt will
return and start a feud with Cody by

208
00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:30.039
attacking him that I have not heard. That's interesting. I think Drew will

209
00:14:30.039 --> 00:14:35.279
win the Icy title from Gunther.
Charlotte will win the w W Women's Championship

210
00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:39.360
from Osca and against Bianca bel Air
and the Triple Threat. But after Eo

211
00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:43.159
Sky will cash in. Remember when
she was e Eo Sharai. I remember

212
00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:48.799
that then she had a name change, but she'll EO Sky will cash in.

213
00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:52.440
But after she wins, Bailey turns
on EO and wants the championship.

214
00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:54.759
Wow, that's a that's multi layer
there. That's like peeling back the onion,

215
00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:58.960
right. I think Finn will shockingly
beat Seth for the World Heavyweight champ

216
00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:03.240
been ship, but then Damian turns
on Finn to cash in and win.

217
00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:09.200
I think Roman Reigns retains, but
after we get a huge return and you

218
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:13.080
say, I'll be happy with this
one. Finally, finally, finally,

219
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:16.679
the Rock his back. He enters
has a stare down with Roman as the

220
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:18.840
show ends. That's it for today. Stay tuned for the voicemail with the

221
00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:24.000
Core Jade Report. I hope you
guys enjoy SummerSlam. Okay, yeah,

222
00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:30.039
I mean I think it's a possibility
about The Rock. Okay, I'm not

223
00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:33.960
going to officially predict it, because
every time I've predicted it the Rock coming

224
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:39.080
back over the last three plus years, I have been wrong. Okay,

225
00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:43.919
so I will say that there's a
significant chance The Rock comes back, but

226
00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:48.639
I'm not going to jump the bandwagon
yet. We will see. There has

227
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:52.200
been many, many, quote perfect
opportunities for The Rock to come back,

228
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:56.320
but this is this is one of
them, and the rest of your the

229
00:15:56.399 --> 00:16:02.200
rest of your predictions, I I
can't comment on because it'll totally, totally

230
00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:06.080
just stomp my show tomorrow, and
I want you guys to listen to my

231
00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:10.919
predictions tomorrow, my official predictions.
But Kyle New York, Kyle, thank

232
00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:15.440
you for your contributions. All right, where we're going, Where we're going,

233
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:21.480
let's I'm going to continue with our
patrons, of course, and we

234
00:16:21.639 --> 00:16:26.240
have mister Whisper in the Wind and
actually Whisper in the Wind, which you

235
00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:30.360
will know very soon who that is. You'll remember, we'll be joining me

236
00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:37.279
on a future review show. Stay
tuned. Okay, So he says,

237
00:16:37.360 --> 00:16:41.240
glad to be back. I just
wanted or I just watched the Cody Rhodes

238
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:45.799
documentary. I wish his battle through
the Indies was documented like this before he

239
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:49.320
came back. I would have been
a bigger fan, but wwe forced it

240
00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:53.279
on us when he returned and overdid
his entrance on the pl and Mondayette Raw.

241
00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:57.559
Normally I'm not too fussy on the
pl E cards, but with it

242
00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:02.480
being SummerSlam, the Wrestleman of the
Summer, it's an underwhelming card. Not

243
00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:07.240
saying Trish versus Becky was a huge
match, but after watching brutal brutal promos

244
00:17:07.319 --> 00:17:11.599
last week or rather week after week
just to witness it on RAW, I

245
00:17:11.759 --> 00:17:17.559
get it in Canada for Trish,
but still okay, I did not see

246
00:17:17.599 --> 00:17:19.559
the Cody documentary yet I do plan
on it. I think it would have

247
00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:26.880
helped him, although hindsight being what
it is, doesn't really matter. And

248
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:30.400
what I mean by that is the
overall overwhelming response to Cody has been positive,

249
00:17:32.279 --> 00:17:37.480
like I mean that maybe underdoing it. I don't hear any booze for

250
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:44.240
Cody Rhodes, and his momentum has
been sustained since he returned. I was

251
00:17:44.279 --> 00:17:47.559
concerned after he returned at the Rumble, which was very I mean, it

252
00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:49.559
was like the worst kept secret in
the world, and then he enters number

253
00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:56.359
thirty in wins after you know he's
been gone. It was just, I

254
00:17:56.400 --> 00:18:00.920
mean, I hated that and he
felt like, you know, one of

255
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:07.200
the softest victories of his career.
But the right I think that it still

256
00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:12.119
would have helped. But I guess
no harm, no foul, And as

257
00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:15.720
far as Trish and Becky not being
on Summer Slam, it is a mind

258
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:19.440
boggling decision. Maybe they just felt
that there's not enough time. They've already

259
00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:22.200
slotted the eight matches they have on
the card for X amount of minutes,

260
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:26.960
and they don't have enough minutes left. Whatever the case may be, I

261
00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:32.440
feel bad for Trish. I feel
bad for Becky even more. I really

262
00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:37.640
do you know, I'm sure that
her wish would be to have a match

263
00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:41.440
with her, one of the women
she looked up to and inspired her to

264
00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:45.359
be a pro wrestler on a main
stage in a stadium in ford Field.

265
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:51.079
I mean, like I feel for
but I guess I mean knows better than

266
00:18:51.119 --> 00:18:53.200
we do at this point. What
are your top three possible returns for Summer

267
00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:57.640
Slam and what would they fall under
which with each storyline? Thanks again,

268
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:03.599
I'm okay, let's talk about We
already talked about Dwayne. So there's one.

269
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:07.640
Randy Orton is a number two,
and I think again if he if

270
00:19:07.640 --> 00:19:11.000
he returns, it's going to be
rko On Roman reigns after he retains against

271
00:19:11.079 --> 00:19:19.680
Jay And Biggie is another one who
does he attack Probably if if he does

272
00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:25.319
return, it would be in the
Intercontinental title picture against Gunther, if Gunther

273
00:19:25.440 --> 00:19:30.440
retains against Drew and then Bray Wyatt. I think Bray Wyatt is also a

274
00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:36.920
possible return, maybe in the Intercontinental
title picture or not. But that's my

275
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:40.240
h Those are my top well four, so you get a bonus there.

276
00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:44.359
Okay, thank you, buddy.
We'll be chatting soon. I'm sure.

277
00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:51.319
Let's get to our next email.
And mister dj Cuzmo, let's he got

278
00:19:51.319 --> 00:19:56.240
what's he got here? So more
summer Slam predictions. So he says,

279
00:19:56.240 --> 00:20:00.440
this is DJ Cuzmo back at it
again on our mail bag show once again.

280
00:20:00.480 --> 00:20:03.319
I will say, well, they're
not hosting it, trust me.

281
00:20:03.720 --> 00:20:08.680
I want them back to Okay,
and there's nothing wrong. There's no bad

282
00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:11.079
blood between us at all. And
we I mean we, you know,

283
00:20:11.160 --> 00:20:15.319
we stay in contact every now and
then. And it's just life, guys,

284
00:20:15.359 --> 00:20:18.240
that's all. It's just life.
You know, life is life is

285
00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:22.039
crazy. And we will have them
return to the show, trust me,

286
00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:26.359
as soon as they possibly can.
Okay, I do miss hearing them.

287
00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:30.079
I missed their perspectives, I missed
their humor, I missed their chemistry.

288
00:20:30.279 --> 00:20:32.680
And it's a nice change up from
me, right, trust me. I

289
00:20:32.759 --> 00:20:34.599
know I want to hear them just
as much as you do. All right,

290
00:20:34.599 --> 00:20:41.079
So kuo, let's get to your
summer slim predictions and spoilers Drew and

291
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:45.279
Gunther. I'm thinking this match might
start Summer Slam. However, I'm booking

292
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:49.319
that Gunther retained so he can continue
his icy tutter rain and surpass Honky Tonk's

293
00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:53.599
longest icy tutter rain a four fifty
four four and fifty four days. But

294
00:20:53.640 --> 00:20:56.759
since Summers Slam is known for surprises, I wouldn't be surprised if Drew wins.

295
00:20:57.000 --> 00:21:00.920
Whichever way it goes, it will
be a very good match. I

296
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:06.319
It's it's hard for me to comment, right because then it gives away all

297
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:11.079
my predictions. So I'm just going
to continue to read Ronda and Shana,

298
00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:17.599
hopefully an octagon style match. I'm
booking that Shana Basler wins because it seems

299
00:21:17.640 --> 00:21:19.519
like this is the end of Ronda, Rolsi and We. But seriously,

300
00:21:19.519 --> 00:21:22.200
though, who really is the baby
face and who's the heel in this match?

301
00:21:22.519 --> 00:21:26.359
This doesn't make any sense. I
can really care less. Well,

302
00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:30.319
even if you don't know who the
define baby face and hel are, they're

303
00:21:30.400 --> 00:21:33.559
leaving it up to the fans to
decide, and there's not going to be

304
00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:37.119
a cohesive decision. I think fans
are gonna be a little split leaning Shana,

305
00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:40.079
but generally split and if Ronda design
is on our way out, then

306
00:21:40.119 --> 00:21:42.119
who You're right? Who the hell
cares because it doesn't really affect anyone,

307
00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:47.160
But they did at least make you
aware of the backstory, and I appreciate

308
00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:51.960
that it was a multi part backstage
sit down interview with both women. And

309
00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:55.759
even if you don't care or know
who the defined baby face and heel are,

310
00:21:55.759 --> 00:21:59.079
which ninety nine percent of the time
I think is a something something you

311
00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:03.039
need to have, is it really
necessary in this case? You know,

312
00:22:03.200 --> 00:22:07.440
all the backwork, all the legworker
would take to try to get the fans

313
00:22:07.480 --> 00:22:10.440
to cheer one over the other at
this point may not be worth the effort.

314
00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:12.000
The juice may not be worth the
squeeze, as they say, so

315
00:22:12.119 --> 00:22:15.920
honestly, this is just going to
be a bustass match. I believe a

316
00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:21.200
physical may not be great. As
I said on my show last night,

317
00:22:21.319 --> 00:22:25.960
I think it has the potential to
be disastrous because if they're trying to mimic

318
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:33.960
MMA in WWE, it's never a
good thing to do. Never never name

319
00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:41.720
another style of combat that WWE has
brought in that has worked in WWE.

320
00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:47.759
Remember Showkishi or when no, when
Big Show and he wasn't joke Showkishi was

321
00:22:47.880 --> 00:22:55.160
his a kind of comedy gimmick.
But when Big Show did a sumo wrestling

322
00:22:55.160 --> 00:22:59.039
match that didn't work out well.
The brawl for All infamously actually hurt guys.

323
00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:03.359
I know. We had also Big
Show, who seems to be involved

324
00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:07.960
in these gimmick matches against Floyd Money
Mayweather, which actually was executed about as

325
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:15.599
well as you could execute a wrestling
slash kind of boxing matchup, and that's

326
00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:18.559
probably as close as you'll get to
a good execution of that kind of a

327
00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:22.839
match. Brock Lesner and Kane Velasquez
l ol, right, absolutely disastrous.

328
00:23:23.920 --> 00:23:30.119
These just don't work well. Now, to Ronda's credit, she is a

329
00:23:30.160 --> 00:23:33.519
trained performer now a trained wrestler.
She she knows what the game is.

330
00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:37.680
So but my concern is that if
you're trying to make it look more at

331
00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:42.400
MMA than WWE, but also you're
pulling your punches, it could be embarrassingly

332
00:23:42.480 --> 00:23:47.400
bad. It really could. It
could. I'm not saying it will be,

333
00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:52.400
but it could be. All Right, Cody and Brock, this seems

334
00:23:52.400 --> 00:23:56.880
to be the conclusion of this feud, and hopefully Cody moves on to a

335
00:23:56.920 --> 00:24:00.960
new challenger or a returning challenger,
but who who. I'm not saying it.

336
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:03.279
No, no, no, no, I know what you're doing there,

337
00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:06.960
no, no, no, you
almost got me. Anyway, I'm

338
00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:11.839
booking that Cody gets the wind to
finally end this story. Okay, that's

339
00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:17.920
just what I'm gonna say right now. Okay. Number four Osca versus Bianca

340
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:23.839
versus Charlotte for the women's Championship.
I'm sticking with my earlier prediction that Bianca

341
00:24:23.920 --> 00:24:27.319
wins, but interesting to see if
Eosky plans to cash in on the winner,

342
00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:30.559
since for the most part, the
women's money the bank winners don't hold

343
00:24:30.599 --> 00:24:33.759
on for the brief to the briefcases
for many months. Good point, good

344
00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:40.640
point. Ricochet versus Logan Paul.
I'm booking that Logan Paul gets the win

345
00:24:40.759 --> 00:24:44.720
here. I like the progression of
this feud, which now involves Samantha Irvin.

346
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:47.920
Did anyone see that coming? By
the way, that was a nice

347
00:24:47.960 --> 00:24:51.759
touch. I still like that.
Hopefully this feud continues for two more ples,

348
00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:55.160
because this is the best one I've
seen, the best I've seen of

349
00:24:55.240 --> 00:24:56.880
Ricochet, and there's probably a lot
more to go. I would agree,

350
00:24:57.319 --> 00:25:00.720
I would agree that there is more
to Rick Cache. We've seen more of

351
00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:07.960
a Ricochet character development in two weeks
than we haven't two years. Okay,

352
00:25:07.799 --> 00:25:11.920
number six point six here I heard
this is going to be some sort of

353
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:15.160
a SummerSlam Battle Royale occurring. Anyway, I want La Knight to be the

354
00:25:15.200 --> 00:25:19.319
last man standing. I want this
to be the similar coordination of sorts like

355
00:25:19.319 --> 00:25:22.519
how Stone Called won King of the
Ring in ninety six and began his rise

356
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:26.960
to main event status and then winning
the Rumble of ninety seven. This Battle

357
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:30.759
Royal has the has to be the
push for La Knight to at least become

358
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:33.839
the United States Champion or even in
the long run, potentially win the Rumble

359
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:37.559
next year. Yeah. See that's
the thing again. I have been cautious

360
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:44.799
of WWE giving us a very heavy
favorite twice now with La Knight with the

361
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:49.559
United States Championship Tournament and also the
Money the Bank Briefcase match, and both

362
00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:52.839
of them he lost, which fans
are like, what the hell? But

363
00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:56.559
again, there has to come a
point where w W pulls the trigger.

364
00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:00.960
This pushing him by not looking like
they're pushing him strategy can only go so

365
00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:03.920
far, and I think it's finally
reached that point where there has to be

366
00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:07.240
some kind of prize for La Knight. Maybe it's not announced what that is,

367
00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:11.559
but maybe La Knight then starts to
petition to Adam Pierce. Hey,

368
00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:17.240
I won the battle Royale. I
deserves you know something, And so maybe

369
00:26:17.240 --> 00:26:19.119
that is the start of La Night
on the Rise. You're right, This

370
00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:26.359
really to me it should be l
A Knight because of that simple fact they

371
00:26:26.400 --> 00:26:29.640
need to pull the trigger. You
can't play the cat and mouse game with

372
00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:36.319
fans forever Number seven Rollins and Balor. This is a tough match because I

373
00:26:36.359 --> 00:26:37.920
really want Finn to win, but
I got this gut feeling that Seth is

374
00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:41.759
going to get the victory and somehow
they do. The third match at payback

375
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:45.920
interesting to see if Priest teases another
cash in. With that being said,

376
00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:51.279
I'm looking. I'm booking that Rowlins
retains at a very close finish. I

377
00:26:51.319 --> 00:26:55.119
want to say stuff, but I
can't. And last, but not least,

378
00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:59.559
Ray and j Part three, the
Tribal Combat Championship match. This is

379
00:26:59.559 --> 00:27:03.480
another tough one because I really want
Jay to win to end this story between

380
00:27:03.519 --> 00:27:07.480
him and Roman that has spanned three
years. But I got this gut feeling

381
00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:11.279
that Roman retains being an interesting plot
twist, and that plot twist is a

382
00:27:11.359 --> 00:27:17.400
returning Jimmy Usso what might happen is
that Jimmy comes down as the audience steps

383
00:27:17.440 --> 00:27:23.119
to allowed the audience pops during some
sort of ref bump that ref falls outside

384
00:27:23.680 --> 00:27:27.519
the ring from a Roman spear.
Well, let me just stop you there,

385
00:27:27.640 --> 00:27:33.279
DJ. Somebody needs to come up
with the percentage of Roman reins Championship

386
00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:37.720
matches that involve a referee bump.
It's got to be in the height,

387
00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:41.920
like above seventy five percent. It's
got to be because you know a ref

388
00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:45.920
bump is coming here, so you
are right in line with the rest of

389
00:27:45.920 --> 00:27:51.960
his matches. DJ. Jeez,
all right, I'm not making fun of

390
00:27:52.000 --> 00:27:53.480
you, DJ. I mean,
like, you're probably right. My point

391
00:27:53.559 --> 00:27:56.480
is like not to laugh at your
prediction, but to rather point out the

392
00:27:56.519 --> 00:28:00.880
fact that Roman reins matches. It's
a staple, now, for better or

393
00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:04.680
worse, to have a ref bump. All right. Then Solo comes out

394
00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:08.599
and he and they're in to attack
Jay. Jimmy comes to Jay's rescue with

395
00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:14.440
a steel chair to attack Solo with
a couple of shots. Then Jimmy hits

396
00:28:14.519 --> 00:28:17.200
Roman with a couple of chair shots. Jay goes over to the ref.

397
00:28:17.200 --> 00:28:18.960
Boy, you've really thought this out. DJ. Jay goes over to the

398
00:28:19.000 --> 00:28:22.240
reff so that he can pin Roman, but as soon as he walks over

399
00:28:22.279 --> 00:28:27.000
to call for the ref, Jimmy
hits Jay with a steel chair. Oh

400
00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:32.359
Roman rakes wakes up with a grin. As Jimmy leaves the ring, Roman

401
00:28:32.440 --> 00:28:37.480
goes for the spear on Jay.
The reff finally wakes up and slowly makes

402
00:28:37.519 --> 00:28:41.559
the count one, two three.
Roman retains this is this most likely will

403
00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:45.160
not happen the way I thought of
it, but stranger things have happened in

404
00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:48.759
past Summer Slams. The finish to
this match and what happens after we'll be

405
00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:52.000
very, very interesting. This is
DJ, who's most signing off. Enjoy

406
00:28:52.039 --> 00:28:56.240
SummerSlam, have a great weekend.
Thank you so much, DJ and Boy

407
00:28:56.240 --> 00:28:59.319
oh Boy. I did not predict
I have not had anyone to predict a

408
00:28:59.480 --> 00:29:03.359
Jimmy turn on J scenario. I
like it. I like it. I

409
00:29:03.440 --> 00:29:10.079
know again the rock is an overwhelming
thought, an overwhelming shadow in this match.

410
00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:14.000
After many believe that Roman's going to
retain that the Rocks music is gonna

411
00:29:14.039 --> 00:29:17.319
hit. And by the way,
if you want to see that happen.

412
00:29:17.799 --> 00:29:22.599
Somebody had a TikTok and meshed it
well together. Obviously it's not real,

413
00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:27.039
but what they perceive could happen at
Summer Slam, and it's very convincing.

414
00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:30.440
So if you want to watch that
and pretend that it's actually happening and see

415
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:34.359
how you react to it. Of
the Rock returning after Summer Slam. After

416
00:29:34.400 --> 00:29:38.599
a Roman Reigns holds up his title, go to my TikTok, or rather

417
00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:42.720
my TikTok, my Twitter feed,
the w w podcast searched me out and

418
00:29:44.119 --> 00:29:47.680
I'm the verified blue check mark.
So yeah, I paid that eight bucks

419
00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:51.960
a month. No shame hashtag,
no shame. All right, thank you,

420
00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:55.240
DJ. I will get to your
do we have Yeah? I think

421
00:29:55.279 --> 00:29:56.119
we do, right, Yeah,
we got your very mahan report. Let

422
00:29:56.200 --> 00:30:02.319
me download it right now? All
right, so let's get to oh,

423
00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:06.720
I know, let's get to Thomas
from Montreal. Thomas Franco. Remember guys,

424
00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:11.000
he was the Elimination Chamber review guy. A lot of fun. So

425
00:30:11.119 --> 00:30:14.160
he says, hey, Matt Hope
is all as well. I've noticed in

426
00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:18.920
the past couple of weeks w w
E shows have felt very formulaic and without

427
00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:23.240
and many substantial layers in their storylines. SmackDown pre WrestleMania was a super fun

428
00:30:23.319 --> 00:30:26.480
show and now, apart from La
Knight in the Bloodline story, it's a

429
00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:33.880
tough watch. Let me know your
thoughts things. Here's the thing. WWE

430
00:30:33.079 --> 00:30:37.640
is now going to figure out how
to live in a post Bloodline world.

431
00:30:37.799 --> 00:30:41.519
Solo may still be with Roman,
but the Bloodline as we know it is

432
00:30:41.559 --> 00:30:45.480
obviously shattered unless Jimmy rejoins, and
then there are three men group again.

433
00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:51.160
For all intents and purposes, the
Bloodline story that as we knew it over

434
00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:53.559
the last year and a half two
to three years is dead and gone.

435
00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:56.960
They'll be reunited, don't get me
wrong, and then they'll have a whole

436
00:30:57.039 --> 00:31:02.200
new set of opponents in story to
as a baby Face group, which is

437
00:31:02.240 --> 00:31:03.720
gonna be a whole lot of fun. I predict sometime in twenty twenty four,

438
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:11.119
maybe in a year, but yeah, it has. SmackDown has been

439
00:31:11.160 --> 00:31:19.519
on a very very to me,
very subtle slow decline in their storytelling over

440
00:31:19.559 --> 00:31:23.319
the last four or five months.
Right, they have a lot of it

441
00:31:23.359 --> 00:31:26.720
has to do is summer WrestleMania being
the biggest event of the year and the

442
00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:30.039
biggest storylines come out during that time, so anything after that always feels a

443
00:31:30.039 --> 00:31:36.359
little bit you know, downgraded,
right, But uh yeah, the La

444
00:31:36.480 --> 00:31:41.680
Night right now is a shining star
on SmackDown. They should be very thankful

445
00:31:41.680 --> 00:31:44.599
and counter lucky starts for La Night. He's making things feel fresh. I

446
00:31:44.640 --> 00:31:48.359
mean, imagine SmackDown right now without
La Night, you know it just it's

447
00:31:49.119 --> 00:31:55.519
it's a much different product on SmackDown. However, Roman Reigns continues to pull

448
00:31:55.559 --> 00:32:00.640
the wagon there and the bloodline story
is in need of a massive shake up.

449
00:32:00.680 --> 00:32:04.119
I think after SummerSlam things are going
to change in a big way.

450
00:32:04.119 --> 00:32:07.359
And that's actually what we're hearing that
smack The bloodline storyline is going to be,

451
00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:12.079
as we know right now, shifted
in a big way. And it

452
00:32:12.119 --> 00:32:15.200
does feel like it's time to kind
of move on to different things for Roman,

453
00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:17.640
no doubt about it. So I
think you'll be singing a different tune

454
00:32:19.240 --> 00:32:22.359
and about was it today's Wednesday?
You'll sing it be singing a different tune

455
00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:29.079
in about three days. So okay, now for the positive stuff, I'm

456
00:32:29.079 --> 00:32:31.480
really digging this Shane and Ronde feud. Who would have thought that that would

457
00:32:31.480 --> 00:32:35.839
be possible? A year ago.
The video package of this past Monday Night

458
00:32:36.119 --> 00:32:38.920
Raw was so good at telling the
story between these two beyond WWE, and

459
00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:43.920
it begs the question, why can't
they do this more with storylines? Brockfish's

460
00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:47.599
Cody needed a way better video package
than they got this week with that horrible

461
00:32:47.680 --> 00:32:52.240
choice of music, and even the
triple threat match for the women had so

462
00:32:52.400 --> 00:33:00.759
much story you can pull on all
three women's and XT days. Yeah,

463
00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:04.599
that's I think I brought that point
up too, Like Brock and Cody needed

464
00:33:04.599 --> 00:33:07.519
this treatment. You're telling me you
can't sit Brock down for you know,

465
00:33:07.559 --> 00:33:12.319
an interview where Brock doesn't even have
to appear. You don't think Brock would

466
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:15.640
rather do that than actually fly deal
with people that he hates, which I

467
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:21.720
can relate to deal with people,
and then have to fly back. Right,

468
00:33:21.720 --> 00:33:24.680
He's notorious for hating travel. Why
wouldn't you want that for Brock?

469
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:28.759
And it furthers a storyline way better
than they did this past Monday. Now

470
00:33:28.799 --> 00:33:30.960
that this past Monday wasn't bad,
it was just kind of more of the

471
00:33:30.039 --> 00:33:36.279
same. So, yeah, we
still don't have a story. There is

472
00:33:36.960 --> 00:33:45.359
no story none for Brock and Cody
zero and they're getting away with it because

473
00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:49.759
of a star power. That's it, the only reason they're getting away with

474
00:33:49.759 --> 00:33:54.039
this where fans aren't in an uproar
outside of the fringe fans like myself that

475
00:33:54.079 --> 00:33:59.240
there's no story, no explanation.
It's been four months and we still don't

476
00:33:59.279 --> 00:34:02.759
have a damn explanation. Are you
kidding me? Okay, three months since

477
00:34:02.839 --> 00:34:07.440
May, right till three months?
So anyway, I'm with you, though,

478
00:34:07.199 --> 00:34:10.039
Okay, it's also a shame there
will be no rear Ripley title match

479
00:34:10.119 --> 00:34:15.400
as well or Dom for that matter. I think WWE is booking themselves into

480
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:19.840
a hole having Ria constantly beat up
to beat up with the men. If

481
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:22.480
she can beat up on the men, which which woman in the division will

482
00:34:22.519 --> 00:34:25.440
step up and actually be a credible
threat. Well, Roquel Rodriguez is that

483
00:34:25.519 --> 00:34:30.400
credible threat, but she keeps injuring
Raquel and she's not able to be cleared

484
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:35.920
to compete quote unquote, So Roquel
is her I mean, close to an

485
00:34:35.920 --> 00:34:40.079
equal as as we've gotten in terms
of power and intimidation and muscle mass and

486
00:34:40.119 --> 00:34:43.840
all that. So Raquel, I
think it's going to be a good opponent

487
00:34:43.920 --> 00:34:46.599
once she actually is clear to compete. So there is that. I mean,

488
00:34:46.599 --> 00:34:50.400
she can't compete with the men.
The men just bow down to her,

489
00:34:50.920 --> 00:34:53.679
you know, because they can't.
As I've said, and I'm not

490
00:34:53.719 --> 00:34:57.719
ashamed to say this, and no
one touches this but me, she's a

491
00:34:57.760 --> 00:35:01.320
woman, so no one can retaliate
against her, which is nonsense, nonsense,

492
00:35:04.440 --> 00:35:07.880
But nonetheless, Ria can't compete with
the men. So Raquel is a

493
00:35:08.280 --> 00:35:13.840
very suitable opponent. Now why they're
waiting, presumably maybe they'll pay back instead

494
00:35:13.840 --> 00:35:17.199
of Summer Slam? Are you kidding? Not having the hottest woman in WWE

495
00:35:17.280 --> 00:35:23.079
in a match at Summer Slam?
What? There are some very questionable decisions

496
00:35:23.119 --> 00:35:30.079
on the card here. Very Lastly, I'm really looking for and by the

497
00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:32.880
way, Becky Lynch and Becky Lynch
and Roll Rondo. Becky Lynch in Ronda

498
00:35:32.920 --> 00:35:38.679
should happen before Ronda leaves. But
Becky Lynch and Ria Ripley was teased if

499
00:35:38.760 --> 00:35:45.360
you remember that on Raw about a
month ago backstage. So I think Becky

500
00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:52.039
and Ria is definitely happening. I
don't know when, but it will.

501
00:35:52.280 --> 00:35:53.880
Lastly, I'm really looking forward to
Summer Slam. I do think the card

502
00:35:54.559 --> 00:36:00.360
it's great, apart from there being
a stipulation in Cody versus Brock. Yeah,

503
00:36:00.360 --> 00:36:05.559
where there is no stipulation? Right? There is none? How is

504
00:36:05.559 --> 00:36:08.719
there no stipulation in Brock and Cody? Is somebody breaks your arm and you

505
00:36:08.760 --> 00:36:13.440
just want to wrestle them, somebody
beat you up in front of your mom

506
00:36:13.440 --> 00:36:19.079
and you're You're now restricted to just
wrestling rules. No, this makes sense.

507
00:36:21.760 --> 00:36:25.920
I don't know. I'm very confused. Wait or am I wrong on

508
00:36:27.000 --> 00:36:30.000
that? I'm trying to remember.
Some of you out there are probably yelling.

509
00:36:30.079 --> 00:36:32.840
Is there is there a stipulation on
Brock and Cody? You would think

510
00:36:32.880 --> 00:36:37.679
that there's not, because I don't
think there was, but logic would dictate

511
00:36:37.679 --> 00:36:40.159
that there is. So if it's
a no DQ match, I'd like that

512
00:36:42.039 --> 00:36:49.199
it should be no DQ. I
don't know, all right, Do you

513
00:36:49.239 --> 00:36:52.159
think that Rollins and Valor has potential
to be the best thing on the card

514
00:36:52.199 --> 00:36:57.320
with priest looming? Yes? I
think he who shall not be named might

515
00:36:57.400 --> 00:37:00.360
return for a Grayson Waller's segment,
But apart from that, I don't think

516
00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:02.840
we'll get any other high profile returns. Last thing very quickly. If you

517
00:37:02.840 --> 00:37:06.679
need a co host to do the
review show, I'm free and available,

518
00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:10.840
so okay, yeah, he who
may who shall not be named. But

519
00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:14.840
you know, I'm gonna name him
because they keep naming him the Rock,

520
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:17.719
right, I'm gonna say it because
he keeps being named by name on the

521
00:37:17.719 --> 00:37:22.320
show. So I feel like my
lips have been unlocked. As far as

522
00:37:22.559 --> 00:37:27.880
coming on the show to do review. The problem is, I'm traveling Saturday

523
00:37:28.000 --> 00:37:31.639
night, I'm getting in late,
and by the time I watch the show

524
00:37:31.840 --> 00:37:36.679
and I'm able to review the show, I will be in zombie mode.

525
00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:43.079
So I may be doing it.
I may do it Saturday night in a

526
00:37:43.480 --> 00:37:46.679
fog, or I may wait until
Sunday morning. So with that unpredictability,

527
00:37:46.719 --> 00:37:49.639
I hate to tell people, oh, it's this time, and then I

528
00:37:49.719 --> 00:37:52.679
change it because I'm too tired or
whatever. So like, I appreciate it.

529
00:37:52.199 --> 00:37:54.679
If I can bring you on and
I have us locked in time,

530
00:37:54.719 --> 00:37:58.320
I'll let you know. But it's
it's difficult. It's difficult when I have

531
00:37:58.400 --> 00:38:01.760
other things going on in other commitments
in a very wonky time that I may

532
00:38:01.840 --> 00:38:05.400
do it, may not do it. I hate doing that to people,

533
00:38:05.760 --> 00:38:15.320
so but thank you. All right, let's take another another gander here.

534
00:38:15.480 --> 00:38:21.360
Let's see we got Diego from Honduras. All right, Diego, Let's let

535
00:38:21.920 --> 00:38:25.639
me talk to you. I really
like the logan ball Ricochet program. Like

536
00:38:25.719 --> 00:38:29.239
you mentioned before, this is the
first time we got to see some in

537
00:38:29.320 --> 00:38:32.360
depth character development from Ricochet. Before
this happened, I used to think they

538
00:38:32.360 --> 00:38:37.920
should put a mask on Ricochet and
capitalize on his superhero ish abilities, make

539
00:38:37.000 --> 00:38:40.239
him a real life superhero or a
power ranger like character to appeal to a

540
00:38:40.280 --> 00:38:45.679
younger audience, much like they did
on Luca Underground when he was Prince Puma.

541
00:38:45.880 --> 00:38:49.519
He might not get to the top, but if done right, he

542
00:38:49.519 --> 00:38:51.880
could sell a lot of merch and
be a great asset to the company.

543
00:38:52.079 --> 00:38:54.400
Plus, putting him in a mask
will hide the fact that he's almost doesn't

544
00:38:54.440 --> 00:38:57.840
have any charisma at all. And
that's not an insult, that's just a

545
00:38:57.880 --> 00:39:00.639
fact of life. Yeah. Anyway, have a great week and give up

546
00:39:00.679 --> 00:39:02.920
the good work, can you guys? By the way, imagine the pop

547
00:39:04.039 --> 00:39:07.760
lay night it's going to get in
Detroit. He he'll be in the top

548
00:39:07.880 --> 00:39:13.039
five, if not top three pops
for the night. I mean, just

549
00:39:13.239 --> 00:39:15.320
imagine it. I mean, people
are ready to blow up for this dude,

550
00:39:15.320 --> 00:39:17.920
and they already have. But on
on a large scale, this is

551
00:39:17.920 --> 00:39:22.639
the biggest audience lay Night will be
in front of since his ascent, So

552
00:39:23.039 --> 00:39:30.800
I can't wait to hear the reaction
now, diego as far as Ricochet goes,

553
00:39:30.320 --> 00:39:37.400
Yeah, again, more character development
two weeks than two years. I

554
00:39:37.519 --> 00:39:40.239
actually do believe that Ricochet has more
charisma than we think he does, only

555
00:39:40.280 --> 00:39:45.239
because we haven't been he hasn't been
given an opportunity to really show it.

556
00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:49.559
So there is that. And if
you remember back when Ricochet was first kind

557
00:39:49.559 --> 00:39:53.480
of new on the main roster,
he was labeled the in house or the

558
00:39:54.000 --> 00:39:58.360
residence superhero of the roster or something
like that, so they already kind of

559
00:39:58.800 --> 00:40:01.400
knew that he was gonna fel to
the younger audience that are not so much

560
00:40:01.400 --> 00:40:06.119
as interested in the in depth character
development. They're there for the fireworks,

561
00:40:06.119 --> 00:40:10.239
the cool moves, right, and
that's what appeals to kids, And that's

562
00:40:10.280 --> 00:40:13.880
just the way it goes with kids, right, They're just interested in different

563
00:40:13.880 --> 00:40:16.039
things. But you're right, I
think there is much more to Ricochet right

564
00:40:16.039 --> 00:40:21.599
now. I think Ricochet is benefiting
from this program with Logan Paul just as

565
00:40:21.679 --> 00:40:25.440
much as Logan Paul is benefiting this
program with Ricochet. These two right now

566
00:40:27.159 --> 00:40:30.639
have really found a nice chemistry with
one another that I don't think anyone expected.

567
00:40:30.480 --> 00:40:35.559
Is it the biggest thing ever?
No, but it's unexpectedly better than

568
00:40:35.679 --> 00:40:40.599
most expected, if that makes sense. So you monetize Ricochet the right way,

569
00:40:42.039 --> 00:40:45.719
give him like I don't want here's
the thing, win loser drawn against

570
00:40:45.760 --> 00:40:49.119
Logan Paul. I don't want Ricochet
to go back to obscurity and back to

571
00:40:49.199 --> 00:40:52.519
being a mute. Right, he's
gaining something here. Have you heard the

572
00:40:52.519 --> 00:40:59.280
reactions from Ricochet? Raw? They
have been exponentially better. Why Because he's

573
00:40:59.320 --> 00:41:00.559
being able to connect put the audience
in a way that he has not been

574
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:09.079
able to before a microphone, and
that is key in success. And so

575
00:41:09.239 --> 00:41:14.679
I think after this program they need
to continue to give him something to sink

576
00:41:14.719 --> 00:41:17.760
his teeth into cutting promos against people. They've found something here with Ricochet,

577
00:41:17.800 --> 00:41:21.519
and I think you're right. He
could sell a lot of March, specifically

578
00:41:21.519 --> 00:41:27.880
for the younger audience, no doubt. Thanks diego All right, let's talk

579
00:41:28.000 --> 00:41:32.760
to let's see, let's talk to
Chris and Gallia of Warspite, Alberta,

580
00:41:32.840 --> 00:41:37.440
Canada. Who is I'm not going
to say who? Three times I refuse?

581
00:41:37.840 --> 00:41:43.360
Who is the man sitting in front
Row Center. At every pl he

582
00:41:43.440 --> 00:41:46.599
goes back many years, always wearing
a pistachio green shirt, a cargo hat

583
00:41:46.639 --> 00:41:51.239
and his facial hair. He never
changes his appearance or seats. It's like

584
00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:58.480
wrestling magic. I'm not really sure
what that's supposed to mean. That really

585
00:41:58.480 --> 00:42:01.480
sure, I don't know it up. I still hold out for hope for

586
00:42:01.599 --> 00:42:07.320
Ja Gallia agrees, saying a girl
can hope. Our reason is the Bloodline

587
00:42:07.400 --> 00:42:10.480
story has been so drawn out.
We would like to see the title reign

588
00:42:10.480 --> 00:42:15.519
of Rains end by a member within
the bloodline. Sammy didn't do it.

589
00:42:15.719 --> 00:42:19.400
Jay could, but if he doesn't, only Solo is left to dethrone Roman.

590
00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:22.400
If it doesn't end this way,
I feel like the bloodline won't be

591
00:42:22.440 --> 00:42:27.760
as meaningful. Is in an abrupt
change for Roman to veer off and start

592
00:42:27.800 --> 00:42:30.840
a few with Randy or Bray.
It may be interesting, but not relevant

593
00:42:31.000 --> 00:42:36.239
in my understanding, SummerSlam will be
day one thousand and seventy for Roman.

594
00:42:36.760 --> 00:42:40.400
That number may be shin shiny enough
for w to pull the trigger. Reminder

595
00:42:40.440 --> 00:42:45.639
for our proposal August eleventh, SmackDown
breakdown on that weekend. We week and

597
00:42:52.199 --> 00:42:55.119
Okay, cool, Thank you again. Keep the reminders coming. I

598
00:42:55.119 --> 00:43:00.000
appreciate that. I believe it still
will work for me. So Chris and

599
00:43:00.159 --> 00:43:05.519
Gallia that that should work for me. Please, and I tell this to

600
00:43:05.519 --> 00:43:09.400
everybody, please continue to remind me. So let's see you guys. Saw

601
00:43:09.480 --> 00:43:14.119
you plan on calling in next week
to introduce yourselves, contribute your thoughts and

602
00:43:14.199 --> 00:43:19.000
hype to our weekend review show and
w podcast team. You have been helping

603
00:43:19.039 --> 00:43:22.679
us stay up to date at head
of the game but intended sincerely, Chris

604
00:43:22.719 --> 00:43:24.719
and Gallia. Well, Chris and
Gallia, thank you for being listeners of

605
00:43:24.760 --> 00:43:28.960
the show. Glad we can continue
to help you stay up to date on

606
00:43:29.760 --> 00:43:34.280
all the latest goings on in w
W. As far as the the idea

607
00:43:34.320 --> 00:43:37.719
that the bloodline and internal member has
to be the one or should be the

608
00:43:37.760 --> 00:43:42.960
one to end it, there's logic
in that, you know, there is

609
00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:49.039
something to be said for that.
But Jay was again I said this with

610
00:43:49.119 --> 00:43:57.599
Cody at WrestleMania. So Jay wins, then what right not that Jay can't

611
00:43:57.679 --> 00:44:00.480
put on really good matches and be
you know, a centerpiece for a period

612
00:44:00.519 --> 00:44:07.519
of time, But then what you
know, like also if Roman wins or

613
00:44:07.800 --> 00:44:12.239
Roman loses, you know it's gonna
want to rematch. Therefore, this program

614
00:44:12.239 --> 00:44:15.880
with Jay continues, and the reports
have been that Roman is shifting way away

615
00:44:16.039 --> 00:44:22.440
from the bloodline, or at least
the Jay and Jimmy program. And also,

616
00:44:22.519 --> 00:44:25.519
you're one seventy days. I'll take
that FA's value. You're probably right.

617
00:44:27.599 --> 00:44:30.639
But Roman is very getting very close
to entering the top four and eventually

618
00:44:30.719 --> 00:44:36.760
the top three of all time.
And they realize that they are likely never

619
00:44:36.840 --> 00:44:38.239
gonna have a title reign like this, and they're they're you know, the

620
00:44:38.239 --> 00:44:43.239
next ten to twenty years, it's
possible, so they're gonna I think they

621
00:44:43.400 --> 00:44:46.880
may not be anywhere close to done
with Roman reigns. That sounds insane.

622
00:44:47.880 --> 00:44:53.440
But if they're this close, why
not get him across the finish line,

623
00:44:53.800 --> 00:45:00.320
meaning he could get into the top
two or number one. It's a long

624
00:45:00.360 --> 00:45:04.960
way away. That means another few
years. I know you guys are like,

625
00:45:05.000 --> 00:45:08.880
what, but hey, we've in
our lifetimes, everyone within the sound

626
00:45:08.880 --> 00:45:16.320
of my voice, more than likely
you have never witnessed a title reign this

627
00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:22.000
long, which means you will never
forget it. And if you were to

628
00:45:22.079 --> 00:45:29.000
say you were the generation that witnessed
the longest reigning champion of all time in

629
00:45:29.079 --> 00:45:35.920
pro wrestling. That's something that you'll
never forget. So there is something to

630
00:45:35.960 --> 00:45:37.159
be said for that, as much
as we were all tired of it in

631
00:45:37.199 --> 00:45:44.199
this generation of you know, you
know, of no attention span and hot

632
00:45:44.199 --> 00:45:46.559
potato of title changes. Although Triple
it just kind of put a squash on

633
00:45:46.599 --> 00:45:52.320
that. It's uh, it's it's
it might be a tough pill to swallow,

634
00:45:52.360 --> 00:45:53.840
but we have the World Heavyweight Championship
on Raw. There is that too.

635
00:45:55.199 --> 00:46:00.880
All right, thank you Chris and
Gallia. Let's get to man.

636
00:46:00.920 --> 00:46:05.599
Oh man, I told you.
Guys are absolutely hammering me with emails as

637
00:46:05.679 --> 00:46:12.440
expected. Okay, let's get to
cam. All right, I'm gonna get

638
00:46:12.440 --> 00:46:15.719
through this a little, a little
quick cam here, Okay, mail bag

639
00:46:15.800 --> 00:46:17.840
for a pl e. Yeah,
there's no takeover. Sorry, Okay,

640
00:46:17.880 --> 00:46:22.480
predictions here we go. More predictions, guys. During Gunther. Gunther retains

641
00:46:22.960 --> 00:46:28.559
due to the numbers game after Riddle
comes out to help Drew, but Kaiser

642
00:46:28.599 --> 00:46:34.719
and Geo distract ref and take care
of bro Stash for twenty Rowsy and Basler.

643
00:46:35.719 --> 00:46:37.639
As I write this, we only
know it's an M rules match.

644
00:46:37.960 --> 00:46:42.280
What's that We don't know, but
one can assume with our new merged business

645
00:46:42.320 --> 00:46:45.760
deal, we might get a real
MMA fight. I hope you don't.

646
00:46:45.000 --> 00:46:50.079
So you think Shane is gonna win
Boo Ronda Rousy, that's probably the way

647
00:46:50.119 --> 00:46:54.840
it's gonna go. Now is where
we now, this is where we make

648
00:46:54.920 --> 00:47:00.760
history. Paul versus Ricochet a live
stream match, maybe, I mean it's

649
00:47:00.840 --> 00:47:05.599
it's already a live stream match because
it's on national television, right, But

650
00:47:05.800 --> 00:47:10.800
okay, Logan is going to come
out where somewhere some GoPro somewhere in his

651
00:47:10.840 --> 00:47:15.039
body or set up his phone in
the live stream the entire match for his

652
00:47:15.119 --> 00:47:19.599
twenty million subscribers and all those in
attendance and all those watching at home.

653
00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:25.360
The winner will be a no decision. Okay, Well, the problem with

654
00:47:25.400 --> 00:47:30.760
him wearing any kind of gear that's
dangerous. I mean, you're you're introducing

655
00:47:30.800 --> 00:47:35.880
foreign objects that don't need to be
involved on the body. I get what

656
00:47:35.920 --> 00:47:39.400
you mean because he's a live streamer. But honestly, if I was Logan

657
00:47:39.440 --> 00:47:43.920
Paul, I'd want to kind of
shift away from that identity. But we'll

658
00:47:43.960 --> 00:47:47.159
see. Okay, Summer Slaying Battle
Royale, let me talk to you in

659
00:47:47.199 --> 00:47:52.159
this match obviously has a crowd favorite, and for that reason, I'm out.

660
00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:54.519
Don't only get me wrong, whose
game is at La Night? I'm

661
00:47:54.599 --> 00:47:59.119
rooting just as loud as the next
guy. But it don't don't matter two

662
00:47:59.159 --> 00:48:01.719
words, slow earn and now,
like you, I don't know why it's

663
00:48:01.719 --> 00:48:06.639
not his time? So who wins? Well, Big Oh is going to

664
00:48:06.719 --> 00:48:10.039
put on a show Odyssey Jones random, I know, but who knows?

665
00:48:10.079 --> 00:48:15.039
Just maybe here's the thing. Also, WW might be playing more games with

666
00:48:15.119 --> 00:48:20.119
us where they've said, well,
the fans know they've gotten burned by expecting

667
00:48:20.239 --> 00:48:22.039
La Night to win the last two
matches, and this time they're gonna say,

668
00:48:22.079 --> 00:48:24.760
well, ww's not going to get
them this match because they know that

669
00:48:24.800 --> 00:48:27.960
he's they're the favorite, and they're
not going to do it. And now

670
00:48:28.000 --> 00:48:30.880
they might do it. Right,
there's a little bit of gamesmanship being played

671
00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:35.320
by Creative and between the game between
Creative and the fans. Right now,

672
00:48:36.199 --> 00:48:40.719
all right, Oscar the whole Women's
Championship match, the triple Threat, Flair

673
00:48:40.800 --> 00:48:45.880
wins, becoming a fifteen time champion, and then Sky cashes in hits Flair

674
00:48:45.880 --> 00:48:54.119
with a drop kick or Bailey hate
to say it, so okay, Brock

675
00:48:54.159 --> 00:48:58.199
and Cody. Winner will be Cody
and this feud move on. Thanks for

676
00:48:58.280 --> 00:49:02.639
Cody for doing this. And Seth
and Finn excellent match. Damien cashes in

677
00:49:02.719 --> 00:49:07.559
at a down Seth and from out
of Nowhere South of Heaven during a triple

678
00:49:07.599 --> 00:49:10.280
threat stomped to Finn and when he
thinks Finn is out of it, he

679
00:49:10.360 --> 00:49:16.119
covers Seth one two and then JD
mcdonnaugh gets rid of priests and Finn covers

680
00:49:16.159 --> 00:49:23.599
one two three New World Heavyweight Champ. And finally it's time Maintavnjuso versus your

681
00:49:23.599 --> 00:49:30.360
tribal chief, head of the table
the let's see what's your what's your prediction

682
00:49:30.440 --> 00:49:37.079
here? Roman's new Okay, so
Jimmy comes back, But as soon as

683
00:49:37.119 --> 00:49:40.440
the show goes off the air,
that's when bron Breaker comes out. Okay,

684
00:49:40.440 --> 00:49:45.360
so we have a bron Breaker description
or a bron Breaker prediction. Most

685
00:49:45.400 --> 00:49:50.880
of us are thinking that Roman reigns
retains though, so thank you Cam all

686
00:49:50.960 --> 00:49:55.000
right? Who all right? Guys, Let's let's keep going here. A

687
00:49:55.079 --> 00:50:01.559
couple more, a couple more U
And by the way, guys, um,

688
00:50:01.599 --> 00:50:06.079
if you are a patron, you
can send in an email and a

689
00:50:06.119 --> 00:50:08.519
voicemail. But if you're not a
patron, you can only send in an

690
00:50:08.559 --> 00:50:12.880
email or a voicemail and try to
keep it three minutes or less. So

691
00:50:12.920 --> 00:50:15.760
if you, if you guys write
a super long email, I'm gonna cut

692
00:50:15.800 --> 00:50:20.440
it down just for time reasons.
I appreciate the effort, and I appreciate

693
00:50:20.480 --> 00:50:22.719
the pot the passion, but I
gotta cut it down. If you,

694
00:50:22.760 --> 00:50:25.280
if you guys send me massively long
emails, I'm gonna abbreviate some things you

695
00:50:25.320 --> 00:50:30.599
say. Not out of disrespect,
that just out of time. All right,

696
00:50:30.679 --> 00:50:34.280
Ian, let's go here. Um, glad to be back to the

697
00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:37.719
podcast. I just watched the Cody
Roads doc and I wish it's Battle Royal.

698
00:50:37.119 --> 00:50:42.639
Oh okay, never mind, Ian, Your your identity is Whisper in

699
00:50:42.679 --> 00:50:47.440
the Wind has been It's been revealed, all right, so we already went

700
00:50:47.440 --> 00:50:52.079
through Whisper in the Wind. I
e Ian, We'll be talking soon,

701
00:50:52.079 --> 00:50:55.320
buddy. Okay. That means we
only have two I think we only have

702
00:50:55.360 --> 00:51:01.159
two two emails. Guys stick about
me, all right, Mason, he

703
00:51:01.199 --> 00:51:07.239
says, So about this tribal combat, do you think Jimmy or the USOS

704
00:51:07.280 --> 00:51:12.119
that's in the hospital will just magically
be better and come out and help Jay

705
00:51:12.760 --> 00:51:16.320
because Solo is going to be helping
no matter what. Yeah, definitely,

706
00:51:16.360 --> 00:51:20.559
I mean like Solo and Jimmy are
more than I mean. I'd say they

707
00:51:20.559 --> 00:51:23.480
have a very high chance of being
involved here. Second, Ricochet and Logan

708
00:51:23.519 --> 00:51:27.800
Paul is a program I'm actually more
invested in than I thought I would be.

709
00:51:28.079 --> 00:51:30.000
When Paul made it personal with his
fiancee, I kind of knew that

710
00:51:30.039 --> 00:51:36.159
the Ricochet is gonna win. Also, Paul is always knocking out his opponents

711
00:51:36.199 --> 00:51:40.800
in promos, but this time,
first Ricochet hit the sliced bread variant off

712
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:45.159
the Apron, then the week after
he hit the superkick, and then the

713
00:51:45.239 --> 00:51:49.960
standing shooting Star and he might be
only the only human that can do that.

714
00:51:50.920 --> 00:51:54.920
Third, this week's question for the
listeners is what is the most athletic

715
00:51:55.079 --> 00:52:00.199
thing you've ever seen in w W
E Let me answer that from my perspective.

716
00:52:00.599 --> 00:52:07.320
One of Evan Bourne, remember him
Evan Bourne into an Archao that was

717
00:52:07.360 --> 00:52:14.039
insane. The Shelton Benjamin sweet Chin
music too from Shawn Michaels was insane.

718
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:20.360
Jill's just two that brought off top
of my head. Thank you Mason.

719
00:52:22.599 --> 00:52:24.239
Oh I got to take a breath. We have one more email, guys,

720
00:52:24.840 --> 00:52:30.639
one more email. Here we go, all right, and Chandler finishes

721
00:52:30.719 --> 00:52:34.840
this out and says, this week, I want to start off with a

722
00:52:34.920 --> 00:52:37.840
quick fat for you guys. Next
month I will we'll make a year since

723
00:52:37.840 --> 00:52:44.280
bray Wyatt's returned Extreme Rules. In
one year since being back, he said,

724
00:52:44.320 --> 00:52:47.199
two matches. I understand that there
might be reasons out of his control

725
00:52:47.239 --> 00:52:51.039
as to why he hasn't been in
the ring. It just sucks that such

726
00:52:51.079 --> 00:52:53.760
a hyped up return has fallen flat. But let's get the current topics in

727
00:52:53.800 --> 00:53:00.719
wrestling. The Travel Combat match at
SummerSlam is probably the match I'm looming forward

728
00:53:00.960 --> 00:53:04.760
to the most as it's been as
it's the first time in a long time

729
00:53:04.840 --> 00:53:07.440
that Roman has a chance of losing
the title. Not a high chance,

730
00:53:07.440 --> 00:53:10.000
but a chance. Yeah, I'd
agree with that, except I mean,

731
00:53:10.199 --> 00:53:15.920
I wouldn't say it's not a long
time. I mean the last time he

732
00:53:15.960 --> 00:53:19.679
defended it, of course, was
four months ago at Summer or Wrestlemaniam,

733
00:53:20.280 --> 00:53:23.320
and that was a real chance,
and many people predicted Cody to win.

734
00:53:25.320 --> 00:53:30.800
Clash the Castle against Drew McIntyre was
another. But yeah, I guess in

735
00:53:30.800 --> 00:53:36.119
a while is correct. Seth versus
Finn will probably be the best match of

736
00:53:36.159 --> 00:53:38.280
the night in terms of technical wrestling. It's almost impossible for them to have

737
00:53:38.280 --> 00:53:42.360
a bad match. I would agree
with that. I read that Ronda versus

738
00:53:42.400 --> 00:53:46.559
Shane will be loser leaves Town with
Ronda leaving the company, but clearly that's

739
00:53:46.639 --> 00:53:52.400
not true. They might have more
matches with the final one having that stipulation.

740
00:53:52.559 --> 00:53:55.440
Yeah, it could be this town
ain't big enough for the both of

741
00:53:55.519 --> 00:54:00.320
us. It could be. I
haven't seen that official. Will maybe get

742
00:54:00.320 --> 00:54:08.880
that official from Adam Pierce on Friday
before Summerslime Unsmackdown Tris versus Becky not being

743
00:54:08.960 --> 00:54:14.360
on the pl is odd considering they've
stretched it out as long as they have

744
00:54:14.719 --> 00:54:19.519
just to have segments on rab Yeah, I degree very perplexing with that match.

745
00:54:20.119 --> 00:54:23.239
I think a heel and Roque Hell
and a baby face Bianca could have

746
00:54:23.280 --> 00:54:27.519
a great program for the title.
As much as I don't like Bianca as

747
00:54:27.559 --> 00:54:30.920
a face, I feel it would
still be good. Yeah, as much

748
00:54:30.920 --> 00:54:35.159
as I want Bianca be a heel
as well. There are a couple of

749
00:54:35.239 --> 00:54:38.000
matchups that we haven't seen yet that
would be fun, and that is one

750
00:54:38.000 --> 00:54:42.320
of them. I feel like we're
in a loop with La Night. But

751
00:54:42.400 --> 00:54:44.920
I could write an essay about that, so I'm just going to keep that

752
00:54:44.920 --> 00:54:46.719
short. That's all for this week. Hopefully this makes sense. I have

753
00:54:46.760 --> 00:54:51.719
a bit of sending my emails last
second. Yeah, it is a bit

754
00:54:51.760 --> 00:54:58.159
repetitive, which is why I continue
to stand by my you know, kind

755
00:54:58.159 --> 00:55:05.920
of conclusion that the WWE strategy of
pushing Elliana by now pushing him needs to

756
00:55:05.960 --> 00:55:08.519
come to an end because this cannot
continue forever. So all right, let's

757
00:55:08.519 --> 00:55:16.679
get to the voicemails right now.
Hello, don podcast world, this is

766
00:55:52.199 --> 00:55:59.719
do have some updates and the first
whiz on Jenner Mahall's Instagram page, there

767
00:55:59.760 --> 00:56:02.440
was a post four days ago and
it mentioned something like this. It was

768
00:56:02.480 --> 00:56:07.760

this, the sheeps sleep on us,

00:56:28.960 --> 00:56:31.840
right after Summer Slam, the Monday
night row after Summer Slam. Hopefully we

774
00:56:31.920 --> 00:56:37.159

778
00:56:54.280 --> 00:56:58.400
card. Now. I know,
I don't know exactly what time the show

779
00:56:58.440 --> 00:57:01.239

Now would that being said, of

783
00:57:15.559 --> 00:57:21.199
course this is summer Slab weekend,
so enjoy summer slab, enjoy the rest

784
00:57:21.199 --> 00:57:23.159
of your week. Bekay to one
another, be We'll see my friends,

785
00:57:23.199 --> 00:57:29.519
and of course this is your boy, DJ coolsbo peace are DJ. Hey.

786
00:57:30.119 --> 00:57:32.239
I'm telling you well, First of
all, thank you for following the

787
00:57:32.239 --> 00:57:38.039
Twitter. The Twitter posts continues to
make me encouraged, and you and those

788
00:57:38.079 --> 00:57:45.599
who are fans of the indusher that
big things are coming, and I think

789
00:57:45.599 --> 00:57:47.440
they will be coming in short order. As you mentioned, the Monday night

790
00:57:47.519 --> 00:57:52.280
raw after very very plausible. It
could even happen at Summer Slam. I've

791
00:57:52.280 --> 00:57:55.480
been saying that for weeks and weeks
and weeks again official predictions and things coming

792
00:57:55.480 --> 00:57:59.639
tomorrow. But I would agree with
you, and it has been too long.

793
00:57:59.800 --> 00:58:02.079
And do you know what, the
induser are out of the minds of

794
00:58:02.119 --> 00:58:07.719
the casual fan, which is a
good thing because the fans like us that

795
00:58:07.800 --> 00:58:14.599
are a bit more quote hardcore or
whatever you want to label us, we're

796
00:58:14.639 --> 00:58:17.039
the ones paying attention, But for
the casual fan, the end of Sheher

797
00:58:17.079 --> 00:58:21.320
will be a surprise when they return
because most most of those fans, most

798
00:58:21.320 --> 00:58:24.000
of the casual fans don't have their
minds on the end of shar. So

799
00:58:24.599 --> 00:58:30.480
as far as the event in India
on September eighth, that's awesome and that

800
00:58:30.639 --> 00:58:36.800
continues to further the evidence that the
endusher could be, could be champions by

801
00:58:36.840 --> 00:58:39.039
that time, could be. I
know, let's I know we're putting the

802
00:58:39.039 --> 00:58:43.360
cart before the horse here, but
things are lining up that way if you

803
00:58:43.400 --> 00:58:46.360
want to believe. So thanks DJ
and enjoy SummerSlam. To you, my

804
00:58:46.400 --> 00:58:52.159
friend, and let's go to actually, I don't know, let's find out

805
00:58:52.159 --> 00:58:58.280
together. Who this is. My
name is Michael Drake, Kentucky, and

806
00:58:58.440 --> 00:59:01.840
I just wanted to ask is if
you have an opinion on Dom winding the

807
00:59:01.880 --> 00:59:08.639
North American title at Great American Bash. I mean, Don is a fantastic

808
00:59:08.719 --> 00:59:15.519
heel and obviously a nice heel run
with this championship will do him nicely.

809
00:59:16.039 --> 00:59:22.440
But I also would rather not see
a ton of titles on the judgment day,

810
00:59:23.039 --> 00:59:29.880
just because if they're not in a
major storyline right now, then it's

811
00:59:29.920 --> 00:59:34.400
not going to work out. That
well. I would like to see Damian

812
00:59:34.519 --> 00:59:39.719
Priests maybe have a failed passion on
seth rawlins during the match and that costs

813
00:59:39.880 --> 00:59:44.880
Ben Valor. That would split the
Judgment Day up a little and then maybe

814
00:59:44.960 --> 00:59:50.639
reasturn on Dom. But this Championship
kind of complicates things because I would rather

815
00:59:50.679 --> 00:59:57.000
see Dom in his storyline with another
factions. Thank you, hey, I

816
00:59:57.000 --> 01:00:00.159
think you said Michael Drake. I
could be totally wrong on that, but

817
01:00:00.480 --> 01:00:02.880
I caught Drake, So first of
all, I hope you do do well,

818
01:00:02.960 --> 01:00:07.599
buddy, I thank you for calling
in. And Okay, the fact

819
01:00:07.599 --> 01:00:10.920
that the Judgment Day you're saying are
not involved in a major storyline, you

820
01:00:10.920 --> 01:00:15.320
don't want them with all the gold, well, I mean they are very

821
01:00:15.480 --> 01:00:17.599
very prominent part of Money and at
Raw, I mean and have been for

822
01:00:17.639 --> 01:00:22.239
some time, and they are involved
in major storylines right now, several major

823
01:00:22.320 --> 01:00:27.760
and I would argue that with them
having all the Gold, they're automatically in

824
01:00:27.840 --> 01:00:32.039
major storylines. And I think there
is a strong case to have Finn win

825
01:00:32.280 --> 01:00:37.079
and or Damien Priests cash in shortly
thereafter, or one of those combinations of

826
01:00:37.079 --> 01:00:43.400
either Finn or Damien winning. And
as far as the opinion of having Dom

827
01:00:43.440 --> 01:00:45.760
win the North American title. I
love it Dom and Dom. You know,

828
01:00:45.800 --> 01:00:50.480
if it wasn't for the way the
position and plans the current plans were

829
01:00:50.519 --> 01:00:54.159
for the World Heavyweight Championship played out, and you know, with Seth winning

830
01:00:54.199 --> 01:01:00.199
and all that to counteract Roman rains
as champion on SmackDown, I would think

831
01:01:00.760 --> 01:01:06.920
that Dom would have been a great
world everyway champion. But knowing that they

832
01:01:07.280 --> 01:01:09.840
had to put gold on Dom given
how much heat he has and whether or

833
01:01:09.920 --> 01:01:15.079
not it's just a the fans doing
a monkey see Monkey do routine with Dom

834
01:01:15.119 --> 01:01:19.480
not letting him speak on the mic
is kind of irrelevant because he's still getting

835
01:01:19.519 --> 01:01:25.760
the just an amazing reaction as a
heel. And again, the North American

836
01:01:25.800 --> 01:01:30.360
title was the only available singles title
that they could have Dom capture, and

837
01:01:30.360 --> 01:01:32.679
they knew they had to strike with
the iron's hot. This is not a

838
01:01:32.719 --> 01:01:37.480
normal reaction for a heel, at
least to buy today's standards, So having

839
01:01:37.559 --> 01:01:44.519
him capture the North American title from
NXT Wesley was not the worst move in

840
01:01:44.559 --> 01:01:49.079
the world. I actually really enjoy
it. Seeing Dom as a champion is

841
01:01:49.480 --> 01:01:53.119
enjoyable because you you just despise him
so much you want to see someone beat

842
01:01:53.199 --> 01:01:57.719
him up so badly. That's how
you should feel, as you know,

843
01:01:57.960 --> 01:02:00.760
seeing a heel, and much more
of the case when they have a championship

844
01:02:00.760 --> 01:02:06.480
around their waist. So the only
one not carrying a championship or any kind

845
01:02:06.480 --> 01:02:08.159
of prize at all is Finn Balor
of course, mister money the bank Damian

846
01:02:08.159 --> 01:02:12.559
priest has has his quote unquote prize, but he's gonna want to trade that

847
01:02:12.639 --> 01:02:19.079
in for a belt. So honestly, those we could either even have Damian

848
01:02:19.159 --> 01:02:23.639
and Finn capture the tag team championships
and then every member has it, right,

849
01:02:23.920 --> 01:02:27.760
you could have that, But I
don't know, I mean, but

850
01:02:27.840 --> 01:02:30.119
to say that the judgment day not
involved in major storylines, I mean,

851
01:02:30.800 --> 01:02:35.840
then you know, I don't know
what group is if they're not. But

852
01:02:35.960 --> 01:02:37.960
thanks for calling him, man,
I really appreciate it and hope you enjoy

853
01:02:38.000 --> 01:02:43.639
SummerSlam. Let's continue to again,
Let's find out together who this is here.

854
01:02:43.719 --> 01:02:52.280
Bud Least New York Kyle again for
Greate report back again last week and

855
01:02:52.559 --> 01:02:59.800
Brook Dan brookeby Core j Yeah,
Candlestick, you know core stipulation. I'm

856
01:03:00.079 --> 01:03:02.519
me hope, I mean, I
mean, that wasn't hope. I'm just

857
01:03:02.559 --> 01:03:07.679
worried. That's all this week.
Not much happened for Cora. Basically this

858
01:03:07.719 --> 01:03:12.039
week if they should have took that
from last week, it didn't air like

859
01:03:12.199 --> 01:03:14.199
one of It's one of those things. It's one of those books for like

860
01:03:14.800 --> 01:03:17.599
it was less it was. It
was like recorded less a week, but

861
01:03:17.679 --> 01:03:21.199
they didn't air it till this weekend. It wasn't shown last week to the

862
01:03:21.199 --> 01:03:23.599
public. It wasn't shown for the
first time until this episode. It was

863
01:03:23.880 --> 01:03:29.159
one of those and uh. He
showed her less week in the back,

864
01:03:29.280 --> 01:03:31.400
backstage and women's locker room, Bisky
saying, it's the whole locker room.

865
01:03:31.440 --> 01:03:35.119
It's all the women. Hey,
you know, I'm leaving. I'm done

866
01:03:35.119 --> 01:03:37.960
with this show man. I'm sick, I'm sick of being treated with disrespect.

867
01:03:38.039 --> 01:03:40.880
I'm I'm out of here, and
then she was good luck, good

868
01:03:40.920 --> 01:03:44.880
luck, good luck is out me. Ladies, you're gonna need it and

869
01:03:45.039 --> 01:03:50.239
she walked out. Also, interestingly, in real life, she actually just

870
01:03:50.360 --> 01:03:55.119
left Twitter. It's called X now
I guess stupid he left X and Bisky

871
01:03:55.199 --> 01:03:59.960
said, uh, um, I'm
leaving X because because um, you know,

872
01:04:00.880 --> 01:04:03.199
to Twitter Twitter comments side get can't
makes me lose brain cells. I

873
01:04:03.239 --> 01:04:08.159
don't blame wrong. So and she
goes catching on Instagram instead for now long

874
01:04:09.039 --> 01:04:14.000
so interestingly that she's leaving every interesting
makes you're leaving everything right now and she

875
01:04:14.000 --> 01:04:17.239
she does NXC does That means she's
being called for the manor roster after SummerSlam,

876
01:04:17.599 --> 01:04:23.559
on a roll with Smack after SummerSlam, maybe possibly along of her boyfriends

877
01:04:23.800 --> 01:04:29.920
brom Breaker possible guessing here. I
don't know. I was rannuch of it

878
01:04:29.920 --> 01:04:32.480
this week, though not much happen
this speak, hopefully anymore happen this next

879
01:04:32.519 --> 01:04:35.880

it. It's also summersl one week.

880

So that's all in So so you got

882
01:04:45.880 --> 01:04:47.639
an email part of the self.
That's it you. Yes, we can

883
01:04:47.679 --> 01:04:53.519
help. You'll enjoy SummerSlam. Kyle, thanks so much for the core Jade

884
01:04:53.559 --> 01:04:58.840
report, and I hope you're doing
well. Um yeah again, It's hard

885
01:04:58.840 --> 01:05:01.679
for me to respond to these when
you guys give those reports because they're just

886
01:05:01.800 --> 01:05:05.480
more informational than opinionated. But you're
right as far as core Jade and bron

887
01:05:05.519 --> 01:05:09.480
Breaker. I mean, look,
bron Breaker has been rumored to be coming

888
01:05:09.559 --> 01:05:12.800
up for like a year and a
half now, and we have yet to

889
01:05:12.800 --> 01:05:15.480
see it. I mean, there's
been how many conversations that I've had and

890
01:05:15.159 --> 01:05:18.320
other podcasts I'm sure that talk about
bron Breaker being the one to beat Roman

891
01:05:18.320 --> 01:05:23.880
Reigns and all that. You know, he's a he's quite quite a bit

892
01:05:23.960 --> 01:05:26.440
far away from him. He's like, you know, a universe away from

893
01:05:26.480 --> 01:05:30.199
that, at least as it stands
right now. You know, he's he

894
01:05:30.320 --> 01:05:34.599
was briefly introduced to the main roster
audience, but for most people that see

895
01:05:34.599 --> 01:05:39.760
bron Breaker, it would be like
the first time they're seeing him, and

896
01:05:39.880 --> 01:05:42.840
core Jade could be calling up to
hey, I will say this, there's

897
01:05:42.840 --> 01:05:47.760
a lot of change coming up,
a lot of change after Summer Slam.

898
01:05:47.800 --> 01:05:53.519
All right, let's get to our
next one. It was stuck is he

899
01:05:53.719 --> 01:05:57.920
the dark one? All the way
from New York. We're currently living in

900
01:05:58.000 --> 01:06:02.199
Pittsburgh. I just wanted to say, um, I will be attending Summer

901
01:06:02.320 --> 01:06:10.679
Swam this Saturday in Detroit, and
if you need somebody who who's going to

902
01:06:10.760 --> 01:06:14.199
be there insight, I'm gonna die. Let me know what you think.

903
01:06:14.920 --> 01:06:18.920
By the way, one more question, one more one question? Did you

904
01:06:19.079 --> 01:06:29.119
think little Jay Juso can think range? And do you think we get a

905
01:06:29.880 --> 01:06:36.000
surprise return? Thank you? Dark
went out? All right? Well guys,

906
01:06:36.039 --> 01:06:39.960
my voice is back to normal.
Um, I think I know what

907
01:06:40.000 --> 01:06:44.440
happened there. But Z the dark
One, I believe that's the name you

908
01:06:44.480 --> 01:06:46.960
gave me so from Pittsburgh. Cool
first time calling that, I believe.

909
01:06:47.519 --> 01:06:50.880
And you're going to Detroit, so
enjoy yourself. Boy, I'm jealous of

910
01:06:50.920 --> 01:06:57.440
you guys. But here's the thing. I again, I've throughout the podcast,

911
01:06:57.440 --> 01:07:00.480
I've had another person ask and I
don't want to subject to anyone to

912
01:07:00.800 --> 01:07:04.360
my schedule, which is just absurd
right now with traveling and everything else I'm

913
01:07:04.400 --> 01:07:09.840
doing and inside jobs and everything else. So I will say what I would

914
01:07:09.880 --> 01:07:13.480
appreciate if you could, if you
want to send a voicemail or email and

915
01:07:13.639 --> 01:07:16.960
just give me your quick insight into
what you think of the show, some

916
01:07:17.079 --> 01:07:19.800
big moments things like that. I
mean, again, this is not a

917
01:07:19.800 --> 01:07:23.760
homework assignment. It's all voluntary.
You do whatever you want. But that's

918
01:07:23.840 --> 01:07:28.119
kind of thing I would appreciate,
is inside the show, what you really

919
01:07:28.199 --> 01:07:30.960
enjoyed, the crowd reaction, that
kind of thing, if you can,

920
01:07:30.440 --> 01:07:34.039
UM, that is as far as
I'll be able to promise you getting on

921
01:07:34.079 --> 01:07:38.760
the show. And and and again, this isn't just you, it's obviously

922
01:07:38.840 --> 01:07:41.800
everyone that that's listening to me that
it's like, Oh, I'm attending,

923
01:07:41.840 --> 01:07:46.400
Can I come on? That's the
that's that's the situation right now is for

924
01:07:46.440 --> 01:07:49.360
a review show. We're gonna have
to just put that on pause. But

925
01:07:49.400 --> 01:07:57.440
I will absolutely accept your in person
perspective from a voicemail or email from through

926
01:07:57.480 --> 01:08:01.960
that lens. So cool. All
right, as far as returns go,

927
01:08:02.079 --> 01:08:04.239
I mean, I've already mentioned that
if you've gotten to this part in the

928
01:08:04.239 --> 01:08:09.000
show, you've already heard my thoughts
on returns. You know, everywhere from

929
01:08:09.199 --> 01:08:15.239
Randy to Biggie to Bray Wyatt to
the Rock. You know, definitely one

930
01:08:15.239 --> 01:08:20.600
of them is a returning. But
all right, let's get to let's see

931
01:08:20.760 --> 01:08:25.479
two more voicemails I believe so,
or maybe just one. Either way,

932
01:08:25.680 --> 01:08:30.960
let's get to the next one.
Hey man, it's justin from Maryland.

933
01:08:30.760 --> 01:08:34.800
This want to get my thoughts when
I cover the topics head into the SummerSlam.

934
01:08:35.760 --> 01:08:41.600
So first the US title scene,
So of course I was disappointed that

935
01:08:41.760 --> 01:08:45.880
La Knight didn't win. I think
we all thought he would win the events

936
01:08:45.960 --> 01:08:50.800
to face Awesome three. So I'm
kind of hoping that Awesome Thort thetains because

937
01:08:51.239 --> 01:08:55.000
I mean, if Peller Knight is
going to win the title, he's gonna

938
01:08:55.000 --> 01:08:59.560
need to be to heal. So
I kind of hope they attains. Maybe

939
01:08:59.600 --> 01:09:03.600
we'll um he will like win the
Battle Royal and then he can like challenge

940
01:09:03.600 --> 01:09:09.479
the Payback because I'm just not hoping
that theory very change. Um. I

941
01:09:09.520 --> 01:09:13.319
mean, he's fine the champion,
he just needs more time. Um,

942
01:09:13.319 --> 01:09:16.159
he's charact's more work. But it's
like they just stop having them more TV

943
01:09:16.359 --> 01:09:19.239
for a while. So we're just
like okay what they're doing with him.

944
01:09:19.840 --> 01:09:26.159
So I just hope that um their
very things I'm not I don't like saying.

945
01:09:26.199 --> 01:09:30.279
So he's definitely good in the ring. Um hopefully when Ray comes back,

946
01:09:30.720 --> 01:09:32.920
they can you know, have that
rematch again. But yeah, I

947
01:09:32.960 --> 01:09:39.399
just hope that their y tags.
So next Um it's the same that Kevin

948
01:09:39.399 --> 01:09:43.439
thoughs is injured, so we're not
gonna have him. Well we're not gonna

949
01:09:43.479 --> 01:09:45.920
have a tech title that so I'm
guessing they will probably do it at Payback.

950
01:09:46.560 --> 01:09:50.359
UM. I still think that kill
and Saying will probably Utaine. I

951
01:09:50.399 --> 01:09:58.079
don't think the judgment they needed tech
titles. Um, I feel like I

952
01:09:58.159 --> 01:10:02.000
feel like Dominique, you know Hill
hold the um the North American title for

953
01:10:02.039 --> 01:10:05.199
a while, but yeah, I
just hold that. It's just the same

954
01:10:05.359 --> 01:10:11.000
that they don't have to tag titles
on the favor of view well TMD and

955
01:10:11.000 --> 01:10:15.800
then you couldn't even have strips and
backing on on that or even theory on

956
01:10:15.880 --> 01:10:21.760
that. So that's just the same. But um, well, so that's

957
01:10:21.800 --> 01:10:30.600
a looking forward cheese, that's be
looking forward to, uh Roman the Universal

958
01:10:30.640 --> 01:10:34.680
title match of course on the will
when I feel like we're gonna get somebody

959
01:10:34.680 --> 01:10:39.199
that's gonna return, hopefully Randy comes
back, but I don't Yeah, I

960
01:10:39.199 --> 01:10:42.039
don't think that Watson come back.
I feel like if anybody will come back,

961
01:10:42.039 --> 01:10:45.439
it'll be Randy. We get an
arkad or then that will set that

962
01:10:45.600 --> 01:10:48.039
up, But I'm not so who
to come back. I don't think that

963
01:10:48.079 --> 01:10:51.680
they'll have the show and with just
Roman holding up the title, feel like

964
01:10:51.680 --> 01:10:56.319
they gotta ended, you know,
with something big, you know, just

965
01:10:56.399 --> 01:11:00.600
like they had Um from Brock came
back last year. So I just hope,

966
01:11:00.560 --> 01:11:03.640
you know, you get to go
over time. So I feel like

967
01:11:03.720 --> 01:11:08.880
that's said. Oh another thing going
through, I'm kind of torn between who's

968
01:11:08.920 --> 01:11:13.600
gonna win between him and Drew.
I feel like Drew doesn't need to win

969
01:11:13.640 --> 01:11:16.640
as much as Gunther because you know
Gunter is about to break the record.

970
01:11:17.399 --> 01:11:23.079
So I'm interesting, like like I
would love to see Drew hole the title,

971
01:11:23.560 --> 01:11:27.239
but then going through he just on
this on this massive room, and

972
01:11:27.359 --> 01:11:31.600
now I don't want there. He
is God, it just feels complete when

973
01:11:31.600 --> 01:11:35.000
I hear your voice, justin looking
forward to hearing your thoughts hopefully on Summer

974
01:11:35.000 --> 01:11:41.479
Slam if you have the time to
call in after the event. So I

975
01:11:41.680 --> 01:11:45.960
I mean at this point though,
brother, I mean, I've I've commented

976
01:11:45.000 --> 01:11:50.000
on so much that it's difficult for
me to comment on anything else. I

977
01:11:50.000 --> 01:11:57.039
appreciate your perspectives. I will say
that the Gunther situation with Drew is an

978
01:11:57.039 --> 01:12:01.039
interesting one because Drew poses the most
US threat to Gunther's run this thus far,

979
01:12:01.840 --> 01:12:06.119
no doubt, and does WWE value
Gunther being the longest reigning champ of

980
01:12:06.159 --> 01:12:12.279
all time, which is going to
happen very soon over Drew getting a victory

981
01:12:12.279 --> 01:12:17.520
and stopping Gunther, I would hope. So to me again, if you're

982
01:12:17.520 --> 01:12:20.880
trying to break records. When's the
next time you're gonna have an intercontinental champion

983
01:12:21.000 --> 01:12:25.920
run this long? And you know
what, the Romans run is just so

984
01:12:26.000 --> 01:12:31.119
egregiously long at this point that any
other subsequent run that's going on feels just

985
01:12:32.520 --> 01:12:36.800
futile. Or maybe it's not the
right word menial, I don't know,

986
01:12:36.840 --> 01:12:42.359
whatever, let me use a better
word. It just feels small in comparison

987
01:12:42.399 --> 01:12:45.319
to Roman Reigns is run because we're
constantly hearing about a thousand days plus,

988
01:12:45.319 --> 01:12:49.239
we're closing in on eleven hundred days
in about a month, and then you

989
01:12:49.279 --> 01:12:51.880
hear about, oh, Gunther,
he's been champion for four hundreds days.

990
01:12:51.880 --> 01:12:57.159
Oh my god. In any other
normal universe of wrestling, you'd be like,

991
01:12:57.159 --> 01:13:01.960
wow, that's wow, right,
But it seems so small in comparison

992
01:13:02.000 --> 01:13:08.720
because of Roman Reigns has run.
It overshadows everybody. And that's just the

993
01:13:08.760 --> 01:13:12.920
way it is. It's not I
mean, it's not the fault of Roman

994
01:13:13.000 --> 01:13:15.960
or anything else. It's just how
our minds work when we compare things.

995
01:13:15.960 --> 01:13:18.319
But my point is, do I
think Drew is gonna win? There's a

996
01:13:18.359 --> 01:13:21.600
case to be made. He is
the most serious threat. He is a

997
01:13:21.640 --> 01:13:27.920
former world champion. He is a
proven commodity. He's a legitimate badass.

998
01:13:28.399 --> 01:13:31.479
He is a polished wrestler, from
promo to in ring, to look to

999
01:13:31.800 --> 01:13:38.159
presence to charisma. He has it
all. He has it all and the

1000
01:13:38.199 --> 01:13:45.960
respect of fans, and he's an
absolute believable dude to beat Gunther no doubt.

1001
01:13:45.199 --> 01:13:51.439
But does he I don't know.
We'll leave that for tomorrow's preview.

1002
01:13:53.039 --> 01:13:56.279
But yeah, as far as Randy
Orton returned, he seems to be the

1003
01:13:56.319 --> 01:14:00.720
consensus of a big return as well
as the Rock. But to Randy Orton,

1004
01:14:00.960 --> 01:14:03.920
I think it is again. I'm
gonna sticking with fifty fifty. I'm

1005
01:14:03.960 --> 01:14:09.800
gonna say fifty fifty with Randy Orton
if he's cleared or if he is clearing

1006
01:14:09.880 --> 01:14:12.600
himself, because from what we understand, the doctors are saying, don't over

1007
01:14:12.640 --> 01:14:15.880
wrestle again, and Randy is saying, yeah, screw you, I'm doing

1008
01:14:15.920 --> 01:14:19.399
what I want. It seems to
be the Randy Orton attitude, at least

1009
01:14:19.439 --> 01:14:24.000
of the latest reports. But take
those reports with a grain of salt,

1010
01:14:24.039 --> 01:14:26.479
because, as I mentioned at the
beginning of the show, every time we

1011
01:14:26.560 --> 01:14:30.319
hear Randy Orton's coming back, almost
immediately we hear counter reports of saying he's

1012
01:14:30.359 --> 01:14:33.439
never wrestling again, he's never coming
back to back injuries, not fully healed,

1013
01:14:33.439 --> 01:14:39.960
he's not idea, So who the
hell knows? But big return or

1014
01:14:40.039 --> 01:14:45.079
returns happening at SummerSlam. You can
bank on it, Yes, and they're

1015
01:14:45.119 --> 01:14:50.319
gonna save that, I believe for
the Roman Reigns. Conclusion of the show,

1016
01:14:53.000 --> 01:14:56.720
let me just say that. So
all right, everybody, thank you

1017
01:14:56.760 --> 01:15:00.479
to justin thank you to all of
our regular callers and new callers and emailers

1018
01:15:00.520 --> 01:15:03.680
and everybody else who makes this show
what it is. You guys are the

1019
01:15:03.720 --> 01:15:06.840
best, and we will continue to
try to get everybody who contributes to the

1020
01:15:06.880 --> 01:15:11.920
show on the show. But as
the show continues to grow and grow and

1021
01:15:12.000 --> 01:15:15.079
grow, I don't know. Eventually, I'm going to reach a cap where

1022
01:15:15.079 --> 01:15:18.399
I have to kind of pick and
choose out of the mailbag, like have

1023
01:15:18.520 --> 01:15:25.199
a proverbial mailbag actually physically in my
office, right and just not look and

1024
01:15:25.359 --> 01:15:28.640
close my eyes and reach into the
bag and pull out the person's name.

1025
01:15:28.720 --> 01:15:30.560
Right. Eventually, that's what's going
to have to happen. But for the

1026
01:15:30.600 --> 01:15:33.359
time being, we're getting close to
that limit. But we're trying to do

1027
01:15:33.439 --> 01:15:38.720
our best respect everybody's contributions, and
I think we did this week. So

1028
01:15:39.279 --> 01:15:44.079
guys, tomorrow is our preview and
Prediction show, and normally we have Thursdays

1029
01:15:44.079 --> 01:15:46.359

full preview and prediction. Really looking forward

1032
01:15:54.319 --> 01:15:59.039

01:15:59.079 --> 01:16:01.319
but we're making up for it with
our preview and prediction show tomorrow night.
