00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:06.759
Monday Night Raw was back in the
same arena that hosted WrestleMania eleven back in

2
00:00:06.879 --> 00:00:12.279
nineteen ninety five, one of the
worst WrestleManias of all time. But this

3
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:15.800
was actually one of the better episodes
of Raw in quite some time. Tonight

4
00:00:15.839 --> 00:00:22.879
we had the very first televised defense
of the World Heavyweight Consolation Belt, the

5
00:00:22.960 --> 00:00:28.519
Big Gold Consolation Belt. Seth Rollins
put the championship on the line against Damian

6
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:32.640
Priest, who accepted his open challenge
on social media just the other day,

7
00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:37.320
and they gave us what ended up
being a very good Maine event with a

8
00:00:37.359 --> 00:00:41.320
little bit of a twist at the
end, little tease about some potential dissension

9
00:00:41.359 --> 00:00:45.200
in the ranks of the Judgment Day. We have drama with the Bloodline on

10
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:50.640
Fridays. Now it appears we may
have some drama with the Judgment Day on

11
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:55.840
Mondays, and also looks like we
might be heading into a Finn Balor Seth

12
00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:59.719
Rollins Championship match. Money in the
bank, that's kind of the picture they

13
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:03.560
paid at the end of the show
tonight. So there was some good wrestling

14
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:10.439
on this show tonight, none better
than the banger that we got between Gunther

15
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:17.319
and Kevin Owens non title was not
the Intercontinental Championship on the line in that

16
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:21.760
match, but they had a hell
of a match and hopefully at some point

17
00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:25.120
we get to see the two of
them run that match back again. Not

18
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:29.159
the ideal finish. There actually was
one thing about the match I wish I

19
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:32.359
could change, But they had a
hell of a meeting in the ring tonight.

20
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:34.840
I believe it was their first ever
singles match, if I'm not mistaken,

21
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:40.959
or certainly in ww at least it
was. We also had money in

22
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:46.799
the bank qualifiers on this show,
two women's qualifiers, with Becky Lynch taking

23
00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:53.560
on Sonya Deville and Zoe Start taking
on Natalia. I'll give you one guess

24
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:57.920
as to who is moving on to
London next month in the ladder match,

25
00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:06.159
And of course I mentioned that they
were in the same building as WrestleMania eleven,

26
00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:12.360
That of course, was in Hartford, Connecticut. They were in Connecticut

27
00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:17.240
tonight. You know what that means. Oh, yes, indeed, it

28
00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:23.919
is Vince Watch. It is Vince
Watch. Vince McMahon was backstage at the

29
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:30.360
show, thankfully, though this time
he did not meddle too much in the

30
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:34.919
show. I didn't see anything about
him changing things wholesale at the last minute.

31
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:38.159
I guess we'll find out tomorrow what
he may or may not have stuck

32
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:43.039
his fingers in here. But they
were very close to the corporate headquarters,

33
00:02:43.039 --> 00:02:46.879
so not all that shocking that Vince
McMahon would come out of the weeds.

34
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:51.840
Remember he said, I'm not going
to be in the weeds like I used

35
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:53.960
to be. He emerged from the
weeds. I don't know what he was

36
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:58.719
doing tonight, but this did not
strike me as a show that had his

37
00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:01.840
fingerprints all over. And I'm sure
this something got changed here and there,

38
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:06.520
But again, this is one of
the better episodes of Raw. Frankly,

39
00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:09.800
this did a better job of holding
my attention than most of the shows that

40
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:15.639
we have gotten since Wrestlemdia, so
that at least is a good thing.

41
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:21.520
We will cover the entire thing.
It is Monday, June fifth, two

42
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:28.080
twenty three, and this is your
WWE Monday Night Raw Review. World Heavyweight

43
00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:31.520
Champion seth Rawlins with his big gold
belt on his way to the ring to

44
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:37.599
open the show. Tonight. We
kicked off Raw with Rollins in the ring.

45
00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:42.680
He said that he has had a
NonStop party since winning that Championship.

46
00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:46.520
In the midst of it all,
he said that he wondered when the last

47
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:51.520
time was that there is a or
there was a World Championship match on Raw.

48
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:53.960
Now, when he threw this open
challenge out on Twitter the other day,

49
00:03:54.000 --> 00:04:00.319
he mentioned Big E being the last
person to defend I guess a World

50
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:03.719
championship that would have been the WWE
title on Raw, which he said was

51
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:09.439
in November of twenty twenty one.
So it's been a long time since we've

52
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:15.480
had a World Championship defended on television
here on Monday Night Raw, almost two

53
00:04:15.600 --> 00:04:20.000
years. And he said that that's
two damn long So he was interrupted by

54
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:27.360
the judgment day but just two members
Finn Balor and Damian Priest, and Rollins

55
00:04:27.399 --> 00:04:30.160
was wondering, you know where Rio
Ripley was, where Dominic? Mysterio was,

56
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:32.959
Are they're going to attack me from
behind? Is this is set up?

57
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:39.199
And they explained. Priest said that
Ripley and dom have their own business

58
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:44.079
to tend to tonight. The only
person Rollins should be worried about is hint

59
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:47.240
is that is our main event on
this show. Priest said that Rollins is

60
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:51.079
a deserving champion with a resume that
speaks for itself. He said, Rollins

61
00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:58.319
has beaten pretty much everybody he's ever
been in the ring with, but so

62
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:03.879
have I. Oh really, I
think Bad Bunny might have a little something

63
00:05:03.920 --> 00:05:10.199
to say about that. Have we
forgotten? Has it been that long since

64
00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:13.360
we did the bunny hop at Backlash
last month? It hasn't been that lunch

65
00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:17.600
been a month almost exactly one month
to the day in fact, that Damian

66
00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:24.240
Priest lost to Bad Bunny, So
I call bullshit on that. Priest said

67
00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:28.839
that he doesn't need the other members
of the Judgment Day to beat Seth Rollins,

68
00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:40.959
Terrence dropping five gifted memberships, thank
you very much. Terrence Rollin said

69
00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:44.160
that Priest doesn't stand a chance against
him if it's just the two of them,

70
00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:46.480
and he challenged, priests, put
your money where your mouth is.

71
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:48.439
Right, you're gonna get a world
Championship match tonight. But how about we

72
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:53.319
do this. Since you're so confident
that you don't need the Judgment Day to

73
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:58.600
help you win, how about you
keep your boys in the back and girls

74
00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:03.319
keep the Judgment Day in the back. Right, effectively their banned from ringside

75
00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:11.160
and Finnballer didn't like this very much. He was a very upset. He

76
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:14.199
says, Rollins does not get to
make the rules, and Priests cut him

77
00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:17.399
off. He cut off Balor and
said no, no, I accept He

78
00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:23.160
accepted Rollin's terms, and Balor was
noticeably upset by this. So this was

79
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:27.240
the first indication. It was brief, but this was the first side of

80
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:31.680
maybe some trouble in Paradise brewing between
the members of the judgment day. Of

81
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:34.360
course, you would see this play
out again later on. At the end

82
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:38.800
of the show. Rollins made a
crack and here by the way, about

83
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:43.439
beating Valor and hurting him in their
match at Summer Slam many years ago.

84
00:06:43.480 --> 00:06:47.000
That also upset Balor, and Rollins
said, well, no matter how you

85
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:53.360
slice it, my title rain is
already longer than Balor's was. That was

86
00:06:53.399 --> 00:07:00.879
the segment. I am still puzzled
by why they booked Damian pre to take

87
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:04.560
the losing fall in that tag team
match last week from seth Rollins. If

88
00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:10.000
they had any inclination that they were
going to book Priests in a championship match

89
00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:14.000
against Rollins this week, then why
would they do that. The only conclusion

90
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:16.000
I can come to is that a
week ago they had no clue that this

91
00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:19.759
was the match they were going to
book for tonight. Otherwise it doesn't make

92
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:26.240
a whole lot of sense. We
had our first of two Money in the

93
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:30.639
Band qualifying matches, both women's matches
on this show. Becky Lynch one on

94
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:34.360
one here against Sonya de Ville,
who had Chelsea Green in her corner.

95
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:39.680
It was only a couple of minutes
into the match when Tris Stratis and Zoe

96
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:45.360
Stark walked out on stage to observe. Becky was briefly distracted by this,

97
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:49.399
but she fought off Sonia. Sonia
hit a superplex. After a commercial break,

98
00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:55.079
Becky fought back. She got booted
though by Chelsea Green outside the ring

99
00:07:55.120 --> 00:08:00.360
as Sonia was distracting the referee,
and Sonya followed with a running niche.

100
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:05.720
So Chelsea Green tried to get involved
again. Becky decked her, tossed her

101
00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:09.480
repeatedly into the barricade. Back inside, Sonya counted a man handle slam into

102
00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:16.360
a schoolboy for two. She tried
to cover with an assist from Chelsea Green

103
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:20.319
outside, Becky still kicked out.
And this is very awkward because this was

104
00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:26.839
a moment here where it looked as
if the referee was going to maybe eject

105
00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:31.799
Chelsea Green from ringside and instead,
like the announcers got quiet. Everybody was

106
00:08:31.799 --> 00:08:37.720
just sort of standing around for a
few seconds and nothing happened. So I'm

107
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:39.279
not quite sure what that was about. I'm not sure if there was some

108
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:43.919
sort of miscommunication. Again, I'm
not sure. It was just a very

109
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:48.879
awkward moment here. Becky followed that
a couple of moments later with a man

110
00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:52.120
handle slam and got the win.
So no surprise there. Becky Lynch qualifies

111
00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:56.399
for the Money in the Bank match. Yeah, they want star power in

112
00:08:56.440 --> 00:09:00.679
the match. Becky Lynch is a
star in that division. She's one of

113
00:09:00.679 --> 00:09:03.879
the top female stars in that company. If they want star power, then

114
00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:07.559
you put Becky Lynch in that match. Sonya Deville does not have star power.

115
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:16.039
We got a recap of the Bloodline
angle from SmackDown the end of SmackDown

116
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:20.240
on Friday night. I don't know
how many of you saw the SmackDown ratings

117
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:22.120
when they came out. Hey Ryan, thank you, I love you too,

118
00:09:22.159 --> 00:09:26.000
brother. I don't know how many
of you even care about the ratings,

119
00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:30.759
But when the SmackDown ratings came in, they did a big number of

120
00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:33.519
this way, like two and a
half million but that final quarter hour segment,

121
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:39.360
which was the entire Bloodline segment,
the Roman Rains one thousand Day celebration

122
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:46.960
did just shy of three million viewers. It's been a long time since a

123
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:52.799
WWE segment did three million viewers.
That's a lot of people. I know,

124
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:54.559
you know, twenty years ago,
twenty five years ago, that would

125
00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:58.039
have been a disappointing number. But
these days you do three million viewers.

126
00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:03.639
That's a lot. And I like
it when they were rewarded for good television.

127
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:07.200
I really do. So many times
over the years, WWE would give

128
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:11.879
us an episode of Raw that was
dog shit and the numbers would be up

129
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:15.960
from the week before, and I
can never make heads or tails over it.

130
00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:18.879
I just couldn't understand it. Like
objectively, these shows in a lot

131
00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:24.039
of cases were just god awful.
But a lot of times they would pop

132
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:26.519
a big number, you know,
but then you would look and then it

133
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:28.799
would go up, it would go
down. I like it when WWE or

134
00:10:28.799 --> 00:10:35.519
any wrestling company is rewarded for good
television. And the fact is that the

135
00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:39.960
bloodline is the best part of the
entire show. The Bloodline is quality television.

136
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:43.559
The story is still going, the
story is still compelling. Right,

137
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:46.200
it's going through different twists and turns. You don't quite know which direction it's

138
00:10:46.240 --> 00:10:50.720
going to go in or even if
you do right. The performances, especially

139
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:56.799
by Juso have been tremendous. Well, Juso and Roman Reigns, you know,

140
00:10:56.279 --> 00:11:00.559
they've all done a tremendous job.
So I was very happy when I

141
00:11:00.600 --> 00:11:03.559
saw that they did a good number
because I thought that segment was fantastic.

142
00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:09.320
Now back Live Byron Saxton was in
the back with Sammy Zane and Kevin Owens,

143
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:15.919
and he wanted to get their opinions
on what happened during the Bloodline segment

144
00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:18.639
on Friday. What are your thoughts
about what happened with Roman Reins and Solo

145
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:22.720
Sukoa and Jimmy and Jay. Sammy
said that well, I'm not one to

146
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:26.759
say I told you so, but
he was glad to see Jimmy Usso do

147
00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:31.240
the right thing. That being said, the bloodline wasn't his problem anymore,

148
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:37.840
and that's when he was interrupted by
Imperium. Ludvig Kaiser said that Sammy was

149
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:41.759
right, Imperium was their problem.
Now Owens freaked out on them again.

150
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:46.799
This is his new gimmick now,
where Kevin Owens just loses his ship and

151
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:50.840
he starts ranting and raving and screaming
and talking really really really fast, like

152
00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:56.440
that's his new thing now. So
I blame by the way, I blame

153
00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:01.240
Elias's brother for sending him off the
deep end. I don't think he ever

154
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:05.960
really recovered from that. What was
what was Elias's brother named? What was

155
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:09.960
the brother's name? Again? I
already forgot it was Elias right, Ella

156
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:13.519
Rod was the brother that we never
saw. But Owen's mentioned el Rod one

157
00:12:13.559 --> 00:12:18.799
week. I can't. I just
I'm blanking on the brother's name. It

158
00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:24.879
was Elias Ezekiel. There we go. I briefly forgot the name of the

159
00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:26.320
brand. Is Ezekiel still in the
hospital, by the way, I heard

160
00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:33.279
he was in a coma. I
hope he's doing well. So then as

161
00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:39.759
this is going on, Gunther shows
up and Gunther says that Owens can't control

162
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:46.399
his temper clearly, and he said
that Owen's lacks discipline, and he offered

163
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:50.399
to teach him some discipline. Owens
told him, you know what, we

164
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:54.200
could do it in the ring.
And he marched off in a huff on

165
00:12:54.279 --> 00:13:00.919
his way to the ring. So
we got a vignette after this Cayden Carter

166
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:05.000
and Katana Chance, for those who
don't know, women's tag team drafted from

167
00:13:05.080 --> 00:13:09.480
NXT has yet to make or up
until tonight, had yet to make their

168
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:13.360
road debut, So we got a
video here focusing on their athletic backgrounds,

169
00:13:13.399 --> 00:13:20.879
and of course they made mention of
the fact that Chance was on what was

170
00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:24.759
that show America American Ninja Warrior many
years ago? That was her big claim

171
00:13:24.759 --> 00:13:28.240
to fame, So they mentioned all
of that as a very good video package

172
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:31.559
and they are For those who don't
know, they are one of the few

173
00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:39.000
legitimate teams on the women's side in
WWA. They were singles stars, unaffiliated

174
00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:41.639
with each other. They got paired
up. I don't know if that was

175
00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:45.679
WWE just saying hey, you're a
team now, or if they sort of

176
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:48.080
went to management and say, hey, we would like to become a tag

177
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:52.960
team. I don't know how they
got started, but they were singles.

178
00:13:52.039 --> 00:13:56.559
They got put together I guess as
a tag team four years ago. So

179
00:13:56.639 --> 00:14:00.159
these two women have been a tag
team for four years. And if you

180
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:03.639
watched any of their recent work in
NXT over the past year, they're pretty

181
00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:07.399
well well oiled machine. You know, we don't get too unfortunately these days

182
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:11.960
as much as in the past.
See a lot of real tag team like

183
00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:18.919
tandem wrestling, where they have multiple
moves that they do together. And we

184
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:22.799
see that consistently from these two right
down to their finish. They work really

185
00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:28.679
well together as a team. And
I think it's a damn shame that WWE

186
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:31.080
has neglected the women's tag team division
as much as they have, and they

187
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:35.639
just don't have a lot of competition. They just don't hnce what Ronda Rousey

188
00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:39.679
talked about in the New York Post
last week when she was shooting basically what

189
00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:45.960
she was doing shooting on the dismally
shallow, as she said, WWE women's

190
00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:50.639
division, and a lot of what
Ronda said in that interview, whether she

191
00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:54.120
was working some of her comments or
not, because you know, there were

192
00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:56.320
comments in there also about how you
know, there's nobody as good as us,

193
00:14:56.320 --> 00:15:00.919
and you could kind of tell what
the worked menswear. But a lot

194
00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:03.279
of the other comments she was making
about the number of women in the division

195
00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:09.440
and all trying to work together and
we need better stories. That's a shoot,

196
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:11.799
I mean, that's the truth.
A lot of people have been saying

197
00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:16.679
that, not just Rhonda rousing.
So it's a shame because I think that

198
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:20.200
their ceiling as a team is very
low. They've been together for four years.

199
00:15:22.039 --> 00:15:24.639
I mean if they stay together as
a team for another two or three

200
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:28.720
years, I mean, what are
they gonna do. Maybe they win the

201
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:33.480
women's tag team titles at some point, but their ceiling is very low if

202
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:37.759
they want to really accomplish much of
anything in this company, either that or

203
00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:41.559
WWE has to wake up and start
putting the work in to really beep up

204
00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:48.720
that women's tag team division. So
after a break, we got Kevin Owens

205
00:15:48.759 --> 00:15:54.039
one on one against Gunther. This
was a non title match, so the

206
00:15:54.320 --> 00:16:00.799
Intercontinental Championship not on the line.
When Gunther took his jacket off in the

207
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:03.480
aisle way, I don't have any
of you pay attention to this sort of

208
00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:07.120
thing during the entrances, But when
he does this thing where he takes the

209
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:14.879
jacket off and Giovanni Vinci is behind
him to if you're watching to the left,

210
00:16:15.559 --> 00:16:19.960
Ludvig Kaiser is behind Gunther to the
right, he flicks his jacket off

211
00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:26.120
and almost in just one fluid motion, Kaiser behind him grabs the jacket and

212
00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:30.799
he's like twirling it. But it's
almost it's like the way that it was

213
00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:33.279
so smooth, the way that they
did that, and that's not the first

214
00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:36.919
time that he's done that. They've
done this before. I just thought that

215
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:44.200
that was cool. Kaiser is great, Ludvig, Kaiser is great, and

216
00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:51.360
Kaiser has also happened to be some
of my favorite roles as well. Shout

217
00:16:51.399 --> 00:16:52.639
out to Max. Thank you very
much. Max, I did get your

218
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:57.000
super chat earlier. I very much
appreciate it, so thank you. Have

219
00:16:57.120 --> 00:17:03.559
a very good night. Gunther cut
Owens off with a boot early on here

220
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:07.000
in this match and a big German
supplex through the break. It was all

221
00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:12.400
Gunther. He was beating the holy
hell out of Kevin Owens here. He

222
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:17.200
just broke him down piece by piece. Owens tried for a cent on bomb

223
00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:21.039
during the break. Gunther though got
his knees up. Owen smacked Gunther.

224
00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:23.880
Gunther though just booted him again.
He would try to make a comeback and

225
00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:30.240
each time Gunther would just knock him
down. Gunther chopped Owens and Corey Graves

226
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:33.359
noted how loud it still was even
though Owens still had his He had a

227
00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:41.279
T shirt on and you could still
hear that sound flesh smacking flesh even through

228
00:17:41.319 --> 00:17:45.440
the shirt Gunther applied to Boston Crab. He transitioned into a cross face.

229
00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:51.240
Owen's fought to his feet, hit
a chop. Guther just knocked him down

230
00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:55.519
with a chop of his own.
Look a Walter chop is very different than

231
00:17:55.519 --> 00:18:00.759
a Kevin Owen's chop. Owen's battled
back with clothes line. Gunther, though

232
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:06.079
hit another German supplex. Owens ductor
clothes line hit a German of his own.

233
00:18:06.839 --> 00:18:11.920
They traded strikes, but a Gunther
chop was again too much for Kevin

234
00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:17.559
Owens. Owens came back with a
trio of super kicks and a cannon ball

235
00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:19.920
for two. Gunther blocked a stunner. He had a front drop kick.

236
00:18:21.559 --> 00:18:27.799
Owens came back, and Gunther then
sup plex Owens off the middle rope try

237
00:18:27.880 --> 00:18:32.039
to splash. Owens, though,
got his knees up and hit a cent

238
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:34.400
on bomb for a near fall that
the crowd got hot for. Not that

239
00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:40.920
the crowd wasn't into the match,
but that near fall really kind of brought

240
00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:44.880
them up a couple of notches there. Owens set up for a stunner,

241
00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:48.799
but he was distracted by Giovanni Vinci
on the apron. Zane pulled Vinci off

242
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:52.839
the apron and fought with him.
Meanwhile, in the ring, Kaiser got

243
00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:56.000
in the ring, Owens saw him. Owens gave Kaiser a stunner, and

244
00:18:56.440 --> 00:19:02.200
the distraction allowed a Gunther to schoolboy
Kevin Owens for the win. I'm not

245
00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:07.920
a fan of Gunther resorting to a
roll up finish out of desperation, but

246
00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:11.480
that's my only nitpick of this entire
thing. I thought that this was excellent,

247
00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:15.799
and all due respect to Kevin Owens, because Kevin Owens is great,

248
00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:22.519
all due respect to him. Gunther
is just special. He's just You have

249
00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:30.079
your wrestlers on the roster, and
there is a sameness to some of them.

250
00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:33.759
Others, you know, have a
different personality. Maybe some are more

251
00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:38.400
charismatic than others. Right, everybody
has something that kind of makes them stand

252
00:19:38.440 --> 00:19:45.119
out, some more than others.
But Gunther is he's just he's a different

253
00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:49.960
kind of breed when it comes to
pro wrestlers. It's like he's a throwback

254
00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:55.240
to another era. We don't have
very many people who look and sound and

255
00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:59.400
wrestle like him, which is one
of the reasons why he stands out so

256
00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:02.880
much. That and the fact that
I have yet to see a bad Gunther

257
00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:07.319
match, whether it's an NXT or
on the main roster. Never not once.

258
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:11.279
Some are shorter than others, But
like, I've never seen a bad

259
00:20:11.359 --> 00:20:15.920
match that he's been in. You
could always count on him going in there

260
00:20:17.160 --> 00:20:21.920
and having a good match or having
a great match, regardless of who he's

261
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:23.519
in the ring with. We know
Kevin Owens is a great worker, right,

262
00:20:23.559 --> 00:20:26.039
You would have to be pretty bad
to go in there and have a

263
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:30.119
bad match with him too. But
Gunther's got all the tools. That's why

264
00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:33.559
I keep saying by WrestleMania next year
he will have that big gold belt on

265
00:20:33.559 --> 00:20:38.000
Monday Night Row, he'll be the
world champion. He's already outgrown the Intercontinental

266
00:20:38.000 --> 00:20:41.480
title at this point. They're just
running out the clock to get him to

267
00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:45.039
break the Honey talk Man's record.
That's it. It's the only reason why

268
00:20:45.039 --> 00:20:48.759
he is still the Intercontinental champion right
now. They're in this mode now where

269
00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:53.519
they're all about records and breaking records. Right So Roman reigns a thousand days.

270
00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:57.480
He didn't break any records, but
they'll talk about it as a big

271
00:20:57.519 --> 00:21:02.680
deal. It's a thousand days hasn't
been done in almost forty years, right,

272
00:21:02.680 --> 00:21:07.759
Okay, great? We had Gunther, now we had Bianca bell Air

273
00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:12.359
up until just recently four hundred some
odd days as the raw women's champion,

274
00:21:12.359 --> 00:21:15.920
the longest raw women's champion of all
time. They're in this mode now where

275
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:21.559
they're trying to break records, and
when that record falls, which it will,

276
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:26.119
I think September seventh or September eighth
is the date. Not long after

277
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:32.200
that he will drop the Intercontinental Championship
and he will move on to bigger and

278
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:36.720
better things. But before that,
I would like to see these two back

279
00:21:36.759 --> 00:21:38.799
in the ring together at some point. I don't really care how it happens,

280
00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:42.000
but I would like to see a
part two between these two men,

281
00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:45.319
because this was an excellent match.
This was the best match on the entire

282
00:21:45.359 --> 00:21:52.359
show. So after a break,
Matt Riddle was in the back with Kathy

283
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:57.400
Kelly and he told Kathy that he
was tired of watching Gunther cheat. Kaiser

284
00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:03.079
and Vincy showed up. They told
Riddle to watch his mouth. Kaiser started

285
00:22:03.119 --> 00:22:04.960
pushing Riddle around, like what are
you gonna do about it? Right,

286
00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:10.359
He's putting his hands on Riddle,
so Riddle threw him over an equipment case.

287
00:22:10.440 --> 00:22:14.119
Then he took Vinchy down and put
him in an ankle lock until a

288
00:22:14.160 --> 00:22:18.880
bunch of suits ran over to break
things up. I saw Shane Helms in

289
00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:22.799
there. It's always nice to see
the more serious side of Matt Riddle.

290
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:26.839
We got that heading into the Fight
Pit match it Extreme Rules last year with

291
00:22:26.960 --> 00:22:33.799
Rollins, that great split screens segment
they did, and Rollins was going in

292
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:37.720
on Riddle's family situation at the time, your kids don't even want to see

293
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:41.440
you, and we saw a side
of Matt Riddle that we had never seen

294
00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:47.279
before and have not seen since.
But every time we get a little glimpse

295
00:22:47.319 --> 00:22:52.160
at the more serious side of him. I enjoyed that. And as far

296
00:22:52.200 --> 00:22:56.920
as what they did here with Owens
and Zane and the way they left that,

297
00:22:57.160 --> 00:23:00.960
I don't think they're coming back with
Gunther at Owens on television soon,

298
00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:03.759
but I do think they could be
setting up for a tag team title matchup

299
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:07.000
Money in the Bank. It could
be Owens and Zane defending against Imperium.

300
00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:11.319
We saw that match already, might
have been like a week or two after

301
00:23:11.480 --> 00:23:15.160
the after WrestleMania, might have been
the night after WrestleMania, now that I

302
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:19.720
think about it, but I don't
know that that was for the championship.

303
00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:22.599
I can't really it might have been. I can't remember if the titles were

304
00:23:22.599 --> 00:23:26.920
on the line, but it felt
to me like that's the match they're setting

305
00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:30.400
up for. They're setting up for
Owens and Zane against Benjie and Kaiser and

306
00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:37.160
Matt Riddle challenging Gunther for the Intercontinental
title, which that is a match that

307
00:23:38.359 --> 00:23:44.759
it may have happened at least once
in evolved because all those guys were there

308
00:23:44.799 --> 00:23:49.559
around the same time, Walter,
Keith Lee, Matt Riddle. I'm trying

309
00:23:49.599 --> 00:23:53.960
to think if they're I'm almost positive
that, you know, Walter and Riddle

310
00:23:55.000 --> 00:24:00.079
probably work together and evolve or if
not evolve, that they've worked together at

311
00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:03.240
least a couple of times before.
So if they do that match of money

312
00:24:03.279 --> 00:24:07.400
in the bank, I think that'd
be a very good match. So after

313
00:24:07.440 --> 00:24:11.839
this, it was over to Byron
Saxton again in the back and he was

314
00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:18.160
with the brand new women's tag team
champions, Ronda Rousey and SHANEA. Base.

315
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:23.960
Ronda said that it's time they legitimize
these tag team titling. Good luck

316
00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:29.039
with that good luck with that,
Ronda, good luck with that. You

317
00:24:29.079 --> 00:24:30.519
got one of those little g D
lamps you get to rub, you get

318
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:37.359
three wishes, please. They're gonna
legitimize, they said the tag team titles.

319
00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:41.400
They invited any team who had the
balls to challenge them to step up.

320
00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:45.960
Well, just it's a great thing
that Cayden Carter and Katana Chance just

321
00:24:47.039 --> 00:24:52.519
so happened to be standing right there, because not two seconds later they walk

322
00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:56.640
into camera frame first time, by
the way, they've been on Raw since

323
00:24:56.680 --> 00:25:00.480
they were drafted. They walked over
to let them know that they would be

324
00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:07.319
willing to take them up on their
challenge, and Ronda said that she admired

325
00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:11.839
their stupidity. Basler said that I
wouldn't call it stupidity. I think bravery

326
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:15.799
might be a better word for it. And she said that the thing that

327
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:22.640
I think about bravery said usually it
ends quickly with the sound of ligaments being

328
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:27.359
torn from your body. And Rousey
said that it would be baptism by fire,

329
00:25:27.440 --> 00:25:32.039
and they would let Adam Pierce know
about their death wish and they would

330
00:25:32.039 --> 00:25:37.200
see them in the ring. That
must have been an awfully quick conversation with

331
00:25:37.240 --> 00:25:41.599
Adam Pierce, because they immediately hit
Ronda Rousey's music and out to the ring

332
00:25:41.680 --> 00:25:45.319
they went, Ronda Rowsy and Shana
Besler out to the rain, they went

333
00:25:45.359 --> 00:25:51.640
to commercial. So when we came
back, it was Ronda Rowsy and Shana

334
00:25:51.680 --> 00:25:56.440
Basler against Caden Carter and Katana Chance
in a tag team match scheduled for one

335
00:25:56.559 --> 00:26:03.039
fall, but no mention of this
being a tag team championship match. But

336
00:26:03.079 --> 00:26:07.519
apparently somebody forgot to clue in the
person running the social media account for WWE

337
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:14.000
on bt Sport, whoever runs the
Twitter account, because when this match was

338
00:26:14.039 --> 00:26:21.319
over, they made a post that
said and still yeah and still when the

339
00:26:21.359 --> 00:26:30.000
titles aren't on the line, yeah
and still no shit. So after the

340
00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:33.440
break, right, I said,
Ronda and Shaner are coming down to the

341
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:37.319
ring. They go to a break, and they come back and they're standing

342
00:26:37.319 --> 00:26:41.039
in the ring. Kevin Patrick is
on commentary and he claims that Ronda Rowsy

343
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:49.519
went and spoke to Adam Pierce,
who has made this match official. When

344
00:26:49.599 --> 00:26:53.359
did Ronda Rousey do this? Are
you telling me that she came down to

345
00:26:53.440 --> 00:26:57.799
the ring, We went to commercial, she left the ring, went to

346
00:26:57.880 --> 00:27:02.119
the back to Adam Pierce, and
then came back to the ring. That

347
00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:03.559
would make no sense. Why would
she go to the ring first? Why

348
00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:08.640
wouldn't she go find Adam Pierce?
Does she carry an iPhone in her trunks

349
00:27:08.640 --> 00:27:14.440
at all times? That must be
very uncomfortable, especially if you have like

350
00:27:14.440 --> 00:27:18.160
an otter box or something that probably
doesn't feel too good. Did she have

351
00:27:18.200 --> 00:27:22.279
a phone on or does she call
him from the ring? Would it really

352
00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:29.319
have been that difficult to stick some
other segment between the backstage segment and the

353
00:27:29.359 --> 00:27:33.200
start of this match as the buffer
to at least pretend that there was an

354
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:40.160
actual conversation between Ronda Rowsey and Adam
Pierce. I know it's a minor thing,

355
00:27:40.200 --> 00:27:42.519
but it just bugs the shit out
of me. You know, there's

356
00:27:42.559 --> 00:27:49.039
just no thought given to it.
It's very stupid. So Rousey caught Chance

357
00:27:49.079 --> 00:27:53.519
in an armbar over the ropes.
Carter was outside on that side of the

358
00:27:53.599 --> 00:27:57.480
ring at the time, so while
Rowsy is hanging upside down trying to break

359
00:27:57.480 --> 00:28:03.599
her partner's arm, Rousy got super
kicked right in the face and that broke

360
00:28:03.680 --> 00:28:07.400
the hold. Carter returned to the
ring and she hit a top rope dive

361
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:11.000
onto Basler on the floor, and
then Katana Chance followed that up with a

362
00:28:11.079 --> 00:28:18.000
corkscrew dive over the top rope that
wiped out Ronda Rousy. Back inside,

363
00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:23.240
Chance made a blind tag before Carter
avoided a charging Ronda Rousey, who ended

364
00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:29.640
up posting herself shoulder first in the
corner. The challengers hit there after party.

365
00:28:29.720 --> 00:28:32.640
They called the Afterparty. You're a
bunch of party girls. That was

366
00:28:32.680 --> 00:28:34.240
their gimmick and NXT even when they
came out on the show, if you

367
00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:38.000
looked at the lower third where it
gave their names, they had these animations.

368
00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:42.400
I guess it was like DJ's like
dancing around. They're just a couple

369
00:28:42.440 --> 00:28:48.400
of party girls. So they called
her finished the after party, and basically

370
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:53.759
it's it's Carter holding the opponent in
like a neck breaker position at the same

371
00:28:53.799 --> 00:28:59.960
time that Katana Chance does a four
fifty splash off the top rope again tandem

372
00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:03.759
offense. They have an actual tag
team finish, and this was really the

373
00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:07.799
point in the match that the crowd
came alive. And again it wasn't like

374
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:12.599
a big mega reaction or anything like
that, but it was very noticeable that

375
00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:18.880
the crowd came came alive here for
this finishing sequence. They didn't win the

376
00:29:18.920 --> 00:29:22.279
match, but for the move and
then the near fall, they came alive

377
00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:26.079
for this. The problem is that
clearly Shana Basler was supposed to break up

378
00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:33.079
the cover and you know, pull
Katana Chance out of the ring. She

379
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:38.359
was late and Ronda had a kick
out of the finish. So not ideal

380
00:29:38.400 --> 00:29:41.680
to have a Ronda Rousy kicking out
of their finish on their first night.

381
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:45.200
But I don't think that was the
intent. I think the intent was for

382
00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:49.240
Shanea to break up the fall first, but it looked like she was late

383
00:29:49.279 --> 00:29:56.200
to the late to the draw,
late to the draw there, which happens.

384
00:29:56.440 --> 00:30:00.519
Sometimes people are late. You can't
control whether you know where your partner

385
00:30:00.640 --> 00:30:03.799
is. They have to be Johnny
on the spot. Sometimes they're not.

386
00:30:04.160 --> 00:30:07.880
It's funny. It makes me think
of a match. It's just funny how

387
00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:11.599
these random matches come to me.
One of my all time favorite matches on

388
00:30:11.759 --> 00:30:18.079
Raw was Steve Auston and The Rock. It was the night after Survivor Series

389
00:30:18.079 --> 00:30:22.519
in ninety eight when Rock joined the
corporation and he won the tournament, the

390
00:30:22.559 --> 00:30:26.079
Deadly Game Tournament to become champion,
and they did the title match on Raw

391
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:33.160
the next night, And I want
to say they were in Oklahoma or Louisville,

392
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:37.559
maybe Oklahoma City or something. I
don't know, but that crowd was

393
00:30:37.599 --> 00:30:41.519
just molten hot. Molten I mean
this was Austin in his prime, right,

394
00:30:41.559 --> 00:30:45.799
So I mean molten hot. And
I remember the finishing sequence of that

395
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:48.880
match like it was yesterday. Because
Austin hits the stunner, the crowd is

396
00:30:48.920 --> 00:30:56.599
going absolutely bonkers, and he covers
the rock and the spot was Ken Shamrock.

397
00:30:56.119 --> 00:31:00.480
It was part of the corporation.
He's going to reach it and pull

398
00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:03.759
Earl Hebner out of the ring before
he counts three, and he does.

399
00:31:04.279 --> 00:31:07.319
But if you go back and watch
it, Rocks still kicked out of the

400
00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:12.480
stunner because I think he feared that
maybe Shamrock was either late or he was

401
00:31:12.519 --> 00:31:17.160
going to be late. So even
though Rock wasn't supposed to kick out of

402
00:31:17.160 --> 00:31:21.720
the stunner because back then, you
know who kicked out of the stunner back

403
00:31:21.759 --> 00:31:25.599
then, Rocks still got a shoulder
up and kicked out. Right. My

404
00:31:25.680 --> 00:31:29.119
point is, shit happens. So
I don't blame Ronda Rowsy for that,

405
00:31:29.160 --> 00:31:34.079
but it is what it is.
So Ronda got an ankle lock on Katana

406
00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:37.240
chance she rolled out of the hole, hit a code breaker that sent Rowsy

407
00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:41.880
into her corner. Besler tagged herself
and missed Carter tagging in. Did not

408
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:47.240
see that. Carter rolled up Beasler
for a two count. Basler put Carter

409
00:31:47.359 --> 00:31:51.400
down though, and applied the care
food to clutch and got the tap out

410
00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:56.440
for the wind. This was good. This was a very good debut,

411
00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:01.680
I thought for Carter and Sham that
could have easily gone the other way first

412
00:32:01.759 --> 00:32:07.200
night in they're already wrestling the tag
team champions who just won the titles the

413
00:32:07.240 --> 00:32:12.039
week before. Clearly the Ronda and
Shanda are going to be the dominant force

414
00:32:12.160 --> 00:32:15.400
in that women's division, and it
would have been very easy for them to

415
00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:19.960
go in there and squash these two
women who very few people, probably in

416
00:32:20.000 --> 00:32:23.039
the crowd in Hartford have ever seen. I don't know how many people they

417
00:32:23.079 --> 00:32:28.599
had a raw tonight, If it
was ten thousand or seven thousand, however

418
00:32:28.720 --> 00:32:31.680
many people were in there. How
many of those people do you honestly believe

419
00:32:31.720 --> 00:32:36.799
watch NXT week to week and know
who Cayden Carter and Katina Chancer right,

420
00:32:37.920 --> 00:32:39.440
not the vast majority, I can
tell you. I don't know the exact

421
00:32:39.599 --> 00:32:43.920
number, but I can guarantee you
it's not the vast majority of those people.

422
00:32:45.440 --> 00:32:49.240
And they went out there and they
had the chance to get their shit

423
00:32:49.400 --> 00:32:52.240
in. You know, Ronda and
Shanda, they took a lot of their

424
00:32:52.279 --> 00:32:55.559
offense. Ronda took their finish and
they kind of got over. They got

425
00:32:55.559 --> 00:32:59.279
a little over in that match first
night in So that's a good sign.

426
00:33:00.079 --> 00:33:02.880
But the problem is what I mentioned
before. The problem still is that there's

427
00:33:02.960 --> 00:33:08.640
only going to be so many opportunities
for these two unless WWE starts taking this

428
00:33:08.720 --> 00:33:15.599
stuff seriously and trying something to rehab
this women's tag team division that really doesn't

429
00:33:15.640 --> 00:33:21.960
exist. I just think, you
know, again, the ceiling for them

430
00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:25.160
was right here. What are they
gonna do. They're gonna keep facing the

431
00:33:25.200 --> 00:33:29.640
same teams over and over again every
single week. That's gonna get old very

432
00:33:29.680 --> 00:33:37.039
fast. Bronson Reid walked up to
Ricochet, who was backstage at the Gorilla

433
00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:43.240
position. He was doing some shadow
boxing, as I do every other night

434
00:33:43.279 --> 00:33:46.400
before I go live here on YouTube. Slo Monster sits here on shadow box.

435
00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:52.039
So Bronson Reid walks over to him. He thought it was very amusing

436
00:33:52.319 --> 00:33:57.720
that Ricochet was in money in the
bank and he wasn't Ricochet said that he

437
00:33:57.839 --> 00:34:01.880
earned his spot by beating a two
time Grand Slam champion in the miz while

438
00:34:02.119 --> 00:34:07.840
Reid had his undefeated streak ended by
Shinsky n Alkamore. Reid was about to

439
00:34:07.840 --> 00:34:14.760
say something until Nakamura showed up to
remind him who won last This was last

440
00:34:14.760 --> 00:34:17.119
week. Reid said that the result
would be different next time, and then

441
00:34:17.159 --> 00:34:22.559
he left and Ricochet said that he
would give Nakamura a loss tonight and at

442
00:34:22.599 --> 00:34:28.000
money in the bank, and Nakamura
told him to prove it in the rank

443
00:34:28.000 --> 00:34:30.840
because that match was coming up next. But before that match, we got

444
00:34:30.840 --> 00:34:34.840
a video package. You'll notice that
we've gotten more of these, right.

445
00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:38.719
I said this weeks ago that Shawn
Michael's very fond of these vignettes. You

446
00:34:38.840 --> 00:34:42.960
see a lot of them in NXT, not as many of them on the

447
00:34:42.960 --> 00:34:47.880
main roster, and ever since we've
been seeing them quite a bit, which

448
00:34:47.920 --> 00:34:52.880
is necessary because they called a bunch
of people up in the draft, so

449
00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:57.119
we have to get more video packages. Or if somebody is off television for

450
00:34:57.159 --> 00:35:00.119
a while, if somebody is hurt, they're gonna be reintroduced unless you're gonna

451
00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:04.800
have them on the show as a
surprise. Put together a video package for

452
00:35:04.880 --> 00:35:08.320
them. Johnny Gargano got a video
package tonight. Johnny Gargano has not been

453
00:35:08.320 --> 00:35:13.239
on RAW very often. He had
that shoulder injury. I don't know if

454
00:35:13.280 --> 00:35:15.679
he's still dealing with the shoulder injury. Apparently not, since he's on his

455
00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:21.159
way back. But in the video, he talked about how people have always

456
00:35:21.159 --> 00:35:23.320
looked at him and kind of looked
down on him, and he's always been

457
00:35:23.320 --> 00:35:29.360
looked at as the underdog. He
spoke about how he had a dream and

458
00:35:29.519 --> 00:35:31.800
he traveled the world for ten years
in pursuit of that dream. He said

459
00:35:31.840 --> 00:35:37.039
he got a chance in NXT and
they even had footage of him on I

460
00:35:37.079 --> 00:35:39.159
guess what would have been day one
doing drills in the ring of the Performance

461
00:35:39.199 --> 00:35:44.519
Center. I'm John Gargano and he's
doing roles, so they spliced that footage

462
00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:49.440
in there. He said that when
he first got there, though, he

463
00:35:49.599 --> 00:35:53.400
was told that they didn't have a
place. For five years later, he

464
00:35:53.440 --> 00:35:58.920
was the face of the entire brand, and now he says he's a staple

465
00:35:58.960 --> 00:36:02.639
of Monday Night Raw. He thrives
when he is underestimated, and his story

466
00:36:02.800 --> 00:36:08.719
is just getting started. I guess
you could say that Johnny Gargano was on

467
00:36:08.800 --> 00:36:17.039
his way back to Raw. Ricochet
against Shinsky Nakamura, two men that have

468
00:36:17.079 --> 00:36:22.239
already qualified for the money in the
Bank match. They were having a good

469
00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:25.360
match, I thought, until the
finish. Nakamura set up for the kinshasa

470
00:36:25.480 --> 00:36:29.519
ricochet, though stuffed it with a
knee strike and then hit the recoil.

471
00:36:30.599 --> 00:36:35.000
Ricochet went up top Nakamura, they'll
cut him off with a punch. Went

472
00:36:35.039 --> 00:36:38.880
to the middle rope, so both
men are on the ropes and they're trading

473
00:36:39.519 --> 00:36:46.760
forearms. Nakamura drops off the ropes, Bronson read runs in. You could

474
00:36:46.760 --> 00:36:51.280
hear the crowd was starting to stir, so somebody was coming out. We

475
00:36:51.280 --> 00:36:55.880
just couldn't tell who it was.
Bronson read and Reid splashed Nakamura in the

476
00:36:55.960 --> 00:37:00.320
corner for what should have been a
disqualification. I don't think any thing was

477
00:37:00.360 --> 00:37:05.679
ever announced. My guess is they
just threw the whole thing out and it's

478
00:37:05.719 --> 00:37:10.440
probably just a no contest. After
the match, Read splash Nakamora again.

479
00:37:10.840 --> 00:37:16.920
Ricochet climbed onto reads back, read
they'll put him down and he he was

480
00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:23.079
laying on his stomach, and read
one up top and hit the tsunami splash

481
00:37:23.440 --> 00:37:28.920
and he squashed Ricochet in the middle
of the ring, and the crowd was

482
00:37:29.000 --> 00:37:34.519
so incensed by this. The crowd
was so devastated to see baby faced Ricochet

483
00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:42.599
assaulted like this that they chanted one
more time. Ronson Reads he did not

484
00:37:42.679 --> 00:37:45.280
give them what they wanted. Ronson
Read left the ring and he went to

485
00:37:45.320 --> 00:37:49.840
the back. So, with any
luck, they'll do one of these second

486
00:37:49.880 --> 00:37:52.639
chance qualifier. They usually do this, I think right, they have the

487
00:37:52.679 --> 00:37:59.360
second chance qualifying matches with a lot
of the losers who already lost their qualifying

488
00:37:59.400 --> 00:38:02.880
matches. Unlucky person gets to qualify
in the end. With any luck,

489
00:38:02.920 --> 00:38:06.440
it'll be Bronson Read. He can
find his way. He can still find

490
00:38:06.440 --> 00:38:07.639
his way into the money in the
bank match that way. If they do

491
00:38:07.719 --> 00:38:15.280
that, then we had a Miss
TV segment with Cody Rhodes in a suit

492
00:38:16.519 --> 00:38:22.440
with his titanium cast on his arm. Miss said that Cody looked dashing tonight,

493
00:38:22.679 --> 00:38:27.760
which sounded like it went over everyone's
heads in the building except for Cody.

494
00:38:29.400 --> 00:38:32.480
So he brings up Cody's promo last
week. He says it's stupid to

495
00:38:32.679 --> 00:38:37.800
challenge brock Lesner. Cody calls him
Mike, and Miss says, in this

496
00:38:37.920 --> 00:38:44.480
ring I'm the Mids, and so
Cody called him the Mids for the rest

497
00:38:44.519 --> 00:38:46.840
of the segment, which was kind
of amusing. He said, well,

498
00:38:46.960 --> 00:38:52.039
the Miz he did that a few
times. He said. Brock is apparently

499
00:38:52.119 --> 00:38:55.880
hibernating, so we're not going to
see him for a while. He's gone

500
00:38:55.880 --> 00:39:00.800
back. Brock has gone back into
his cave. So I don't think that

501
00:39:00.840 --> 00:39:02.480
we're gonna see Broke. We might
see Brockett all in the month of June.

502
00:39:04.480 --> 00:39:09.760
Probably not gonna see Brockett honestly until
Money in the Bank. So Miss

503
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:15.079
surprised Cody here by introducing his real
guest. He has another very special guest

504
00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:20.800
here on Miss TV, someone he
said, shares the same attributes as Cody,

505
00:39:20.840 --> 00:39:25.079
and that man was Dominic Mysterio,
who came out with Ria Ripley.

506
00:39:27.039 --> 00:39:30.280
Dom tried to speak, he was
immediately drowned out by the crowd. He

507
00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:35.559
tells Cody that, to him,
a man who has done hard time,

508
00:39:36.760 --> 00:39:39.920
Cody is just a little birdie with
a broken wing. You watched Cody go

509
00:39:40.039 --> 00:39:46.000
over this long list of crappy towns
where he's going to be, and Brock

510
00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:52.480
confined him, and at that point
Dominic realized that Cody is a bad father.

511
00:39:52.920 --> 00:39:54.280
He's got a baby girl at home, and yet he's going out on

512
00:39:54.320 --> 00:39:59.760
the road, going to all these
cities. Said, you should be at

513
00:39:59.760 --> 00:40:02.639
home, but instead you're here,
just like Raymisterio, you are a deadbeat

514
00:40:02.719 --> 00:40:08.000
dad. Cody didn't like that.
He stood up out of his chair.

515
00:40:09.559 --> 00:40:14.519
He said that, you know,
I got a ton of empathy for dom

516
00:40:14.559 --> 00:40:17.719
He knows that those fifteen minutes that
Dominic spent in prison was really rough on

517
00:40:17.800 --> 00:40:24.039
him, said the hard times.
Indeed, even he even has a worse

518
00:40:24.159 --> 00:40:29.519
prison tattooed than he does, he
said. After prison, Dominic went on

519
00:40:29.559 --> 00:40:31.840
to WrestleMania to have a match,
but it was more like a public spanking.

520
00:40:32.559 --> 00:40:36.960
He said. Nobody is perfect,
not even Raymisterio, someone he has

521
00:40:37.000 --> 00:40:43.199
an infinite amount of respect for.
Even Raymisterio has made some terrible mistakes,

522
00:40:43.400 --> 00:40:46.840
and he knows that because he's looking
at one that was a good one,

523
00:40:47.519 --> 00:40:52.760
that was a good bird, that
was a good birth. So Dominic and

524
00:40:52.840 --> 00:40:57.039
Rhea went to go walk away.
Cody turned his back to them, and

525
00:40:57.119 --> 00:41:00.239
of course Dominic saw that he snuck
up behind Odie. When Cody turned around,

526
00:41:00.239 --> 00:41:05.000
Dominic smacked the taste out of his
mouth and then dominant. The little

527
00:41:05.000 --> 00:41:08.280
shit that he is goes and hides
behind Riha. So Cody comes over.

528
00:41:08.320 --> 00:41:12.239
Cody sees Rio, I can't do
anything where he's like, ahead, hit

529
00:41:12.280 --> 00:41:15.519
me, hit me, hit me. She's hitting herself. Cody's not going

530
00:41:15.559 --> 00:41:17.880
to hit a woman, of course, not if he wants to run for

531
00:41:17.920 --> 00:41:22.360
office one day. He was.
I think Cody has other aspirations. He

532
00:41:22.400 --> 00:41:27.559
has to he has to consider these
things. He can't run for office one

533
00:41:27.639 --> 00:41:30.719
day and have footage of a fucking
raw of him decking Ria Ripley in the

534
00:41:30.760 --> 00:41:35.280
face. That's not gonna work.
It's not gonna be good for his image.

535
00:41:37.079 --> 00:41:40.519
So of course Cody didn't hit Rhya. Instead, he turned around and

536
00:41:40.599 --> 00:41:44.440
he whacked Mizzen Ahead. He clawbord
Miss in the head with his cast and

537
00:41:44.519 --> 00:41:49.840
down went Miss. I thought it
was a fun segment. With Brock not

538
00:41:50.000 --> 00:41:52.599
being around, We're gonna get a
lot of segments like this with Cody doing

539
00:41:52.719 --> 00:41:59.280
other random things until Brock is ready
to come back. They're not doing the

540
00:41:59.400 --> 00:42:02.159
third match until Summer Slam. We
know that now there will be a third

541
00:42:02.199 --> 00:42:07.079
match between Cody and Brock. That
match is not going to happen until Summer

542
00:42:07.159 --> 00:42:09.039
Slam, So we got a waste
to go. We got two months.

543
00:42:09.760 --> 00:42:15.559
I think it's actually two months from
today is when Summer Slam is taking place.

544
00:42:15.440 --> 00:42:19.840
So what does Cody do then?
At Money in the Bank, I

545
00:42:19.960 --> 00:42:22.920
think we just found out. Seems
to me like they're setting up Cody against

546
00:42:22.960 --> 00:42:29.760
Dominic for money in the bank.
And if that's the case, Cody's probably

547
00:42:29.800 --> 00:42:37.199
gonna lose when brock Lessner interferes and
costs him the match. Cody could lose

548
00:42:37.320 --> 00:42:40.800
to Dominic at money in the Bank. Dominic could very well pin Cody Roads

549
00:42:44.199 --> 00:42:49.119
and he'll never He'll never live that
down if that happens Dominic. We're never

550
00:42:49.199 --> 00:42:52.480
going to hear the end of it
if Dominic Masterio pins Cody Roads and Money

551
00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:53.960
in the Bank. Now, I
don't know how many of you noticed,

552
00:42:54.400 --> 00:43:01.360
but when this segment was over,
Cody's wife Brandy went on Twitter and she

553
00:43:01.559 --> 00:43:06.360
tweeted at rear Ripley. She didn't
tag her, but she was basically tweeting

554
00:43:06.599 --> 00:43:10.639
at rear Ripley and she said,
Papa won't hit mommy, but mommy will

555
00:43:13.239 --> 00:43:17.920
oh rowing down the gauntlet. Brandy
Rhodes throwing down the gauntlet for a mixed

556
00:43:17.960 --> 00:43:24.599
tag or singles man rear Ripley against
Brandy Rhodes. I think social media would

557
00:43:24.599 --> 00:43:31.039
implode. Listen up here because this
week's episode is sponsored by Express VPN.

558
00:43:31.679 --> 00:43:37.119
You know, I use Netflix.
Netflix has all different kinds of shows and

559
00:43:37.280 --> 00:43:39.559
movies to watch depending on what part
of the world you live in tens of

560
00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:44.719
thousands. But do you know that
you're only getting access to a fraction of

561
00:43:44.840 --> 00:43:49.039
what they have to offer. Watching
Netflix without Express VPN is like paying for

562
00:43:49.119 --> 00:43:52.239
a gym membership but only being able
to use the treadmill. You see people

563
00:43:52.320 --> 00:43:55.480
on the other side of the room
doing dumbell squats with free weights, but

564
00:43:55.599 --> 00:44:00.440
you can't because they're not available in
your part of the room. That sounds

565
00:44:00.480 --> 00:44:04.920
pretty stupid, doesn't it. Here's
how Express VPN can open up access to

566
00:44:05.039 --> 00:44:08.360
all of this other content. It
lets you change your location online, so

567
00:44:08.480 --> 00:44:13.639
you get to control where Netflix thinks
you're located. And with almost one hundred

568
00:44:13.719 --> 00:44:16.679
different server locations, Think of all
the new shows you can suddenly gain access

569
00:44:16.760 --> 00:44:21.320
to. And it works with other
streaming services too, not just Netflix.

570
00:44:22.000 --> 00:44:24.920
I've tried it myself many times.
It works great. I've used Express VPN

571
00:44:25.000 --> 00:44:30.440
to watch pulp fiction on Netflix.
Canada and Jurassic World on Netflix in Hong

572
00:44:30.519 --> 00:44:32.599
Kong, and I have never stepped
foot in Hong Kong a day in my

573
00:44:32.760 --> 00:44:36.920
life. I am sure it is
very nice there, but I would know.

574
00:44:37.079 --> 00:44:39.039
I only traveled there from my living
room. And you can too.

575
00:44:39.559 --> 00:44:44.519
Just open the Express vpn app,
choose a location tab, one button to

576
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:47.519
connect, and refresh the page to
open up a whole new library of content.

577
00:44:49.320 --> 00:44:52.800
Express vpn offers fast speeds with zero
buffering. It's compatible on all of

578
00:44:52.880 --> 00:44:58.519
your devices and has a neat little
bonus. It encrypts your data so you

579
00:44:58.599 --> 00:45:01.960
can browse the web securely. So
be smart. Stop paying full price for

580
00:45:02.079 --> 00:45:07.079
streaming services and only getting access to
a fraction of their content. Get your

our other money in the bank. Qualifying

584
00:45:23.360 --> 00:45:30.559
match with Zoe Stark for Stratus in
her corner against Natalia. Natty applied a

585
00:45:30.599 --> 00:45:34.639
sharpshooter, which was about the only
thing that got even a mild reaction here

586
00:45:34.679 --> 00:45:38.119
in this match. Zoe, though
got a rope break from the sharpshooter.

587
00:45:38.639 --> 00:45:43.119
Stark rolled to the outside, so
Natty shoved her back into the ring and

588
00:45:43.280 --> 00:45:46.920
she looked over a Trish and she
said stay out of it. And Natty

589
00:45:46.960 --> 00:45:51.559
climbed up on the apron and when
she did, Stratus kicked her leg.

590
00:45:52.360 --> 00:45:59.280
She kicked her leg out of her
leg, and that happened while the referee

591
00:45:59.400 --> 00:46:02.559
was occupied with Zoe Stark, so
the referee did not see this. Stark

592
00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:07.760
then finished Natty off with the Z
three sixty and pinned her to qualify for

593
00:46:07.199 --> 00:46:13.039
money in the bank. Pretty dull
match. Crowd was silent for it.

594
00:46:14.039 --> 00:46:20.039
I would love to know why Trish
Stratus and Zoe Stark could come out during

595
00:46:20.119 --> 00:46:23.480
Becky Lynch's match and destract her and
try to cost her a win, really

596
00:46:23.639 --> 00:46:30.800
in her qualifying match, and here
Becky Lynch leaves them alone and doesn't come

597
00:46:30.840 --> 00:46:35.599
out or doesn't even come out to
try to get her hands on Trish after

598
00:46:35.679 --> 00:46:39.519
what happened to her at Night of
Champions. Where was Becky There was no

599
00:46:39.639 --> 00:46:43.480
mention of her being attacked, there
was no mention of her leaving the building.

600
00:46:45.719 --> 00:46:47.760
Made no sense why she wouldn't come
out just like they came out during

601
00:46:47.800 --> 00:46:57.800
her match. So then Paul Hayman
was in the back. He was in

602
00:46:57.880 --> 00:47:00.840
one of the dressing rooms. He
was all by himself. He was looking

603
00:47:00.880 --> 00:47:04.800
into the camera, and all I
could think when I saw Paul, I

604
00:47:04.840 --> 00:47:07.199
said, oh hey, look he
got another visitor's pass back on Monday.

605
00:47:07.280 --> 00:47:15.239
Niro, you know what I'm thinking. Would it not have been wiser for

606
00:47:15.320 --> 00:47:20.440
a man who calls himself the wise
man to negotiate himself into being drafted as

607
00:47:20.440 --> 00:47:23.360
a free agent so that way he
can freely go back and forth between all

608
00:47:23.400 --> 00:47:29.519
the shows, And logically it would
make sense. How can I mean?

609
00:47:29.639 --> 00:47:34.159
Brock Lesner was a free agent.
Fucking von Wagner was a free agent.

610
00:47:34.280 --> 00:47:39.199
Baron Corbyn's a free agent. Moustafa
Ali is a free agent. Shelton Benjamin

611
00:47:39.239 --> 00:47:45.880
and Cedric Alexander who got murdered tonight, they're free agents. Paul Hayman should

612
00:47:45.880 --> 00:47:51.840
have been a free agent too.
So he invited us to join him this

613
00:47:51.960 --> 00:47:54.920
Friday on SmackDown, where he said
a family drama would play out when Jay

614
00:47:55.079 --> 00:48:00.079
Usso makes his historic choice. Amen
said that Jay would choose to stand by

615
00:48:01.039 --> 00:48:07.840
his brother solo. Ayman said that
you can share a womb with Jimmy,

616
00:48:07.960 --> 00:48:12.239
but Jay will never be closer in
life to Jimmy than he is to his

617
00:48:12.400 --> 00:48:16.000
tribal chief. He said that Jay
would acknowledge that fact on Friday's SmackDown.

618
00:48:16.760 --> 00:48:25.519
I'll bet you a dollar that he
won't. Three million viewers on Friday,

619
00:48:25.639 --> 00:48:29.960
You bet your ass they're gonna milk
this shit out of these bloodline segments.

620
00:48:30.880 --> 00:48:35.719
I would do the same thing every
single week, or bloodline drama. What

621
00:48:35.840 --> 00:48:40.280
bloodline drama can we come up with
for SmackDown this week? Three million viewers?

622
00:48:40.320 --> 00:48:47.440
Of course they're gonna do that.
Veer and Sanga in due Share against

623
00:48:47.440 --> 00:48:52.079
Shelton, Benjamin and Cedric Alexander never
got started. They attacked Alexander and Benjamin

624
00:48:52.159 --> 00:48:55.519
before the bell. They put Alexander
down in the middle of the ring with

625
00:48:55.559 --> 00:49:00.719
their finish. The referee checked on
Cedric even before before they hit him with

626
00:49:00.760 --> 00:49:05.480
the finish. He checked on Cedric
and called the match off. He was

627
00:49:05.559 --> 00:49:08.800
too injured to continue. I think
Shelton Benjamin literally took I think one boot

628
00:49:08.840 --> 00:49:15.440
to the face. Apparently these men
were too injured, so we never got

629
00:49:15.519 --> 00:49:20.920
the match. This actually felt like
maybe their time got cut, but who

630
00:49:21.000 --> 00:49:23.400
knows. Perhaps we'll find out that
that was one of those Vince McMahon things

631
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:28.679
where he said, let's just let's
just cut right to the chase. I

632
00:49:28.719 --> 00:49:31.360
don't know, just it just felt
like they may have had more even if

633
00:49:31.360 --> 00:49:34.920
they had more planned. I mean, these guys have been squashing people for

634
00:49:35.039 --> 00:49:37.360
weeks. I mean the match would
have gone maybe ninety seconds, So maybe

635
00:49:37.440 --> 00:49:40.480
that's what they intended the whole time. But so so far, they're doing

636
00:49:40.519 --> 00:49:43.840
a good job as far as Veer
and Sanga, you know, building them

637
00:49:43.920 --> 00:49:46.400
up as as monsters, Alexander and
Benjamin. I mean, they're they're just

638
00:49:46.480 --> 00:49:51.760
crash test dummies at this point.
You know, whatever Hurt Business reunion,

639
00:49:51.840 --> 00:49:54.960
they were kind of sort of teasing, and they did plenty of segments backstage

640
00:49:55.000 --> 00:50:00.280
with MVP and showing him talking with
Benjamin and talking with Alexander. That's not

641
00:50:00.400 --> 00:50:05.480
just rumor on the internet, rumor
on social media. They clearly wanted you

642
00:50:05.599 --> 00:50:08.760
to think for a while there,
going back a few months at the Hurt

643
00:50:08.840 --> 00:50:15.199
Business was going to reunite, and
something happened. Something happened, and clearly

644
00:50:15.280 --> 00:50:22.440
that plan got scrapped. So now
this is what they're doing on roll And

645
00:50:22.519 --> 00:50:25.920
then it was time for the main
event, he was seth Rollins defending his

646
00:50:27.000 --> 00:50:32.679
World Heavyweight Championship against Damian Priest.
With the judgment Day banned from ringside,

647
00:50:35.159 --> 00:50:39.239
not really banned, but again Priest
agreed that Balor and the rest of them

648
00:50:39.280 --> 00:50:43.679
would stay in the back. I
don't know how many of you noticed Damian

649
00:50:43.719 --> 00:50:50.400
Priests rocking some Scott Hall inspired tights
from the Outsider days. I love it.

650
00:50:51.599 --> 00:50:53.719
I love to see it. He
already uses the razor's edge and his

651
00:50:54.119 --> 00:50:59.559
arsenal. He's a big Scott Hall
guy, so not surprising. Rollins put

652
00:50:59.599 --> 00:51:02.119
Priests down with a sling blade,
was playing to the crowd. While Priests

653
00:51:02.199 --> 00:51:07.079
rolled to the floor, Rollins went
for a suicide dive. Priests caught him

654
00:51:07.079 --> 00:51:10.400
and executed a flatliner onto the announced
desk, and that took us into the

655
00:51:10.480 --> 00:51:16.400
final commercial break of the night.
Rollins eventually fired back with a superplex,

656
00:51:16.679 --> 00:51:22.280
rolled into a falcon arrow attempt that
got stuffed by Priest. He was going

657
00:51:22.320 --> 00:51:25.400
to power out of it, but
Rollins threw a knee of the head and

658
00:51:25.840 --> 00:51:30.559
hit the move anyway, so that
was a cool sequence. Priest ended up

659
00:51:30.599 --> 00:51:36.159
on the floor. Rollins hit him
with three suicide dives after staying on his

660
00:51:36.280 --> 00:51:40.400
feet, taking the first two priests, he got sent flying over the announced

661
00:51:40.440 --> 00:51:45.239
desk. Back inside, Rollins went
up top. He connected with a frog

662
00:51:45.360 --> 00:51:52.880
splash for a close near fall.
Priest set up for a razor's edge.

663
00:51:52.519 --> 00:51:57.239
Rollins slipped out, but priests grabbed
Rolins by the throat for the South of

664
00:51:57.320 --> 00:52:01.880
Heaven finish, which Rollins avoided.
Rollins went to the ropes. He got

665
00:52:02.039 --> 00:52:07.599
blasted by his spin kick, and
Damian Priest actually hit a hurrican rono off

666
00:52:07.639 --> 00:52:14.199
the ropes took seth Rollins all the
way down to the mat. Priest was

667
00:52:14.480 --> 00:52:20.360
clubbing Rollins with two clotheslines went for
a third Rollins, though flipped over landed

668
00:52:20.440 --> 00:52:23.719
on his feet. That's a will
Osprey move right there. Rollins and Osprey

669
00:52:23.760 --> 00:52:28.559
were going back and forth on social
media when Rollins heard that you know,

670
00:52:28.599 --> 00:52:32.440
Osprey wanted to work with him,
like in a perfect world scenario. Rollins

671
00:52:32.679 --> 00:52:37.920
flips over lands on his feet,
gets the double underhook, hits the pedigree

672
00:52:38.000 --> 00:52:43.840
and only got a near fall out
of it. Rollins then delivered a nasty

673
00:52:43.960 --> 00:52:49.800
looking buckle bomb to Damian priest,
but not in the corner. He delivered

674
00:52:49.840 --> 00:52:52.920
it on the floor. This is
the same move that he injured Finnbalor with

675
00:52:53.440 --> 00:52:58.599
at Summer Slam back in twenty sixteen. Nick forced Balor to have to relinquish

676
00:52:58.679 --> 00:53:05.239
the universal titles very next night after
he won it, and the you know

677
00:53:05.599 --> 00:53:08.440
why they insist on tempting fate like
that, I will never know. It

678
00:53:08.639 --> 00:53:13.760
was a stupid move seven years ago, and it's equally as stupid now.

679
00:53:14.760 --> 00:53:17.000
It was stupid when he did it
to Valor in twenty sixteen. It was

680
00:53:17.039 --> 00:53:22.760
stupid when he did it to Sting
in twenty fifteen and retired him for X

681
00:53:22.880 --> 00:53:29.559
number of years. Ever many years, it was still stupid today. Finnbalor

682
00:53:29.679 --> 00:53:31.639
showed up. I supposed to be
there, but he showed up. He

683
00:53:31.760 --> 00:53:35.760
got taken out by a super kick
before Rollins got back in the ring.

684
00:53:36.320 --> 00:53:38.559
Priest turned Rolins inside out, though
with a clothes line hit the South of

685
00:53:38.639 --> 00:53:42.840
Heaven chokeslam one handed. He couldn't
use the other arm. He was selling

686
00:53:42.920 --> 00:53:49.000
that the arm was injured from the
barricade bomb. Priest then glanced down at

687
00:53:49.079 --> 00:53:52.920
Valor. He saw the Finnvalor was
outside and he's questioning him like, bro,

688
00:53:52.119 --> 00:53:55.480
like why are you here? He
looked genuinely upset to see Finnvalor,

689
00:53:55.519 --> 00:54:00.800
a ringside priest, hoisted up Rollins
for another Razor's edge attempt. His arm

690
00:54:00.880 --> 00:54:05.639
gave out, though, so Rollins
fell on his feet, put priests down,

691
00:54:05.840 --> 00:54:09.280
and then hit the curb stomp for
the wind to retain the World Heavyweight

692
00:54:09.920 --> 00:54:15.079
Championship. Good main event. It
got off to a slow start, but

693
00:54:15.199 --> 00:54:17.840
it really picked up by thought in
those final few minutes. It was not

694
00:54:19.119 --> 00:54:22.159
better than the Guther Kevin Owens match, but I enjoyed it. I thought

695
00:54:22.199 --> 00:54:24.599
it was a good match. Balord
got in the ring when the match was

696
00:54:24.679 --> 00:54:29.239
over as they were going off the
air to confront Seth Rollins. They had

697
00:54:29.280 --> 00:54:32.920
a face to face stare down in
the ring together and it felt like they

698
00:54:32.960 --> 00:54:37.840
are positioning Finn Balor probably at money
in the bank as the next challenger for

699
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:42.480
the World Heavyweight Championship. But I
said earlier, you know we've got bloodline

700
00:54:42.519 --> 00:54:46.639
drama on Fridays, we might have
Judgment Day drama now. In fact,

701
00:54:46.960 --> 00:54:52.400
we do have Judgment Day drama now
on Mondays, based on a couple of

702
00:54:52.480 --> 00:54:54.760
things that happened here on this show. And it started in the opening segment

703
00:54:55.280 --> 00:54:59.360
when Balor was about to go off
on Rollins and say, you don't call

704
00:54:59.440 --> 00:55:01.599
the shots around here, you don't
tell us what to do, and Priests

705
00:55:01.639 --> 00:55:06.519
cut them off and said, I
accept, I accept your terms to not

706
00:55:06.719 --> 00:55:09.719
have the other members of the judgment
day at ringside for our match, and

707
00:55:10.159 --> 00:55:14.599
Valor shot him a dirty look like
whoa, you know, what are you

708
00:55:14.719 --> 00:55:20.400
doing here? That was the first
sign here, what are you doing here?

709
00:55:20.440 --> 00:55:22.960
All right? Damian Priest wants to
know you're not supposed to be down

710
00:55:22.000 --> 00:55:27.000
here. I don't want your help, I don't need your help. So

711
00:55:27.679 --> 00:55:32.119
clearly there is something brewing here.
And it looks like Damian Priest is about

712
00:55:32.119 --> 00:55:37.079
to be replaced, is what it
feels like to me. And that would

713
00:55:37.119 --> 00:55:40.679
make me feel very sad because I
enjoy seeing all four of these guys together.

714
00:55:42.800 --> 00:55:45.159
I say, guys, I mean
you know what I mean, right,

715
00:55:45.559 --> 00:55:52.440
Valor, Priest, Rha Dominic.
I enjoy seeing them interact with each

716
00:55:52.480 --> 00:55:57.239
other. They have turned into one
of the more you know, entertaining parts

717
00:55:57.280 --> 00:56:00.320
of the show, especially the way
the Dominic has gotten over as a heel

718
00:56:00.559 --> 00:56:05.719
and just the whole Rea Dominic dynamic. So it would make me sad to

719
00:56:05.760 --> 00:56:07.519
see them, you know, break
them up. But they may feel like

720
00:56:07.679 --> 00:56:12.079
it's time to try priest out on
his own as a baby face again.

721
00:56:12.119 --> 00:56:15.760
It's been a while. Yeah,
he started out that way and then he

722
00:56:15.840 --> 00:56:17.360
had the heel turn, and honestly, the heel turn was the best thing

723
00:56:17.440 --> 00:56:21.400
that could have happened to him.
But they may feel like it's time for

724
00:56:21.519 --> 00:56:22.719
him to go back out on his
own again. He gained a lot of

725
00:56:22.760 --> 00:56:28.679
Brownie points for the performance that he
put in with Bad Bunny at Backlash.

726
00:56:28.800 --> 00:56:32.960
That was a huge spot for him
to be trusted in in a big match

727
00:56:34.079 --> 00:56:37.119
like that, and he passed that
test. He knocked it out of the

728
00:56:37.199 --> 00:56:42.079
park and I think that helped his
cause a lot. And they may look

729
00:56:42.119 --> 00:56:44.639
at him now and say, we
want to get him prep to go out

730
00:56:44.679 --> 00:56:46.719
on his own and be one of
the top baby faces on the show.

731
00:56:47.039 --> 00:56:52.199
He's not going to be the top
baby face though, Seth Rollins and Cody

732
00:56:52.320 --> 00:56:57.440
Rhodes are fighting for that spot.
So you know makes me think, well,

733
00:56:57.480 --> 00:57:00.280
maybe is he better off as a
heel? I think for now he

734
00:57:00.480 --> 00:57:04.719
is, But it could be that
they feel differently and they want to send

735
00:57:04.800 --> 00:57:08.119
him in a different direction. The
question is if he gets replaced in the

736
00:57:08.239 --> 00:57:12.119
judgment day, who do you replace
him with? And the name I mentioned

737
00:57:12.159 --> 00:57:15.480
that. I'm sure a lot of
people have mentioned it at this point is

738
00:57:15.599 --> 00:57:22.480
JD mcdonnah Because JD mcdonnaugh has history
with Finn Balor. Finn Balor is essentially

739
00:57:22.559 --> 00:57:29.360
a mentor to him. He's known
mcdonnah since he was a teenager, and

740
00:57:29.559 --> 00:57:35.639
so for him to join Balor's crew
would make sense. Plus, don't forget

741
00:57:35.719 --> 00:57:39.239
we had that segment. They've already
teased something here because when mcdonnah was leaving

742
00:57:39.320 --> 00:57:43.599
the building with his luggage a few
weeks ago, at the tail end of

743
00:57:43.679 --> 00:57:46.760
that segment, you saw Finn Balor. He was watching He was watching mcdonna's

744
00:57:46.760 --> 00:57:52.119
promos. So that was done for
a reason. I don't have an issue

745
00:57:52.159 --> 00:57:55.639
if they want JD mcdunnah to join
the Judgment Day. I think JD mcdonnah

746
00:57:55.719 --> 00:58:01.320
in the Judgment Day would work.
I'm not sold on. And again,

747
00:58:01.360 --> 00:58:05.280
we don't know that this is going
to happen, but if the idea is

748
00:58:05.360 --> 00:58:09.320
that Priest is going to be replaced
by him, they're going to effectively excommunicate

749
00:58:09.440 --> 00:58:15.280
him the way they did to Edge. I what I'm not sold on is

750
00:58:15.519 --> 00:58:22.280
replacing someone with mcdunno adding him is
different. Priest is a big guy.

751
00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:27.559
He's the muscle of the group.
He's a big strong guy. Finn Balor

752
00:58:28.280 --> 00:58:31.159
right, I mean he look he
shredded, but not a big guy.

753
00:58:31.400 --> 00:58:37.800
Dominic not a big guy. And
then you have Rhea. Priest is the

754
00:58:37.880 --> 00:58:42.800
one. It's like Roman Reigns in
the Shield. And originally the idea was

755
00:58:42.920 --> 00:58:46.119
they wanted I think Punk was the
one maybe who recommended that Chris Hero be

756
00:58:46.199 --> 00:58:50.440
part of that crew, and the
compromise was, all right, we'll have

757
00:58:51.320 --> 00:58:55.480
Rollins and Ambrose, but Vince McMahon
wants Roman Reigns. Right. We see

758
00:58:55.719 --> 00:59:00.440
how that ended up because they saw
Roman reigns, and they saw dollar size,

759
00:59:00.480 --> 00:59:04.679
saw dollar bills and dollar signs and
Roman reigns. But it worked out

760
00:59:04.719 --> 00:59:08.840
perfectly that way because Roman was the
enforcer of the crew. He was the

761
00:59:08.920 --> 00:59:14.079
big, strong looking guy. If
you had Chris Hero as part of the

762
00:59:14.119 --> 00:59:15.519
Shield, you have three guys who
all look the same. They were all

763
00:59:15.599 --> 00:59:20.360
indie guys, they all come from
the same background. It was the smart

764
00:59:20.480 --> 00:59:22.400
move. It was the smart play
to have somebody in that group who looked

765
00:59:22.559 --> 00:59:28.880
different and did not share that same
background. So I think to replace Priests

766
00:59:28.960 --> 00:59:34.320
with somebody smaller physically, smaller,
who looks like Ballard, and it is

767
00:59:34.360 --> 00:59:37.360
about the same size, maybe even
a little bit smaller actually than Dominate.

768
00:59:37.440 --> 00:59:40.719
But I don't think that works as
well. I think you want to have

769
00:59:40.800 --> 00:59:46.719
at least one person in that group
who stands out above the rest. So

770
00:59:46.880 --> 00:59:52.039
I'm not really sold if it's a
replacement. But again, we'll see what

771
00:59:52.159 --> 00:59:55.639
direction they take this in. I
thought overall Raw was a good show tonight.

772
00:59:57.800 --> 01:00:01.119
There were parts of the show that
were tough to sit through, more

773
01:00:01.159 --> 01:00:06.239
so just because it just wasn't very
exciting and there was no drama, yeah,

774
01:00:06.320 --> 01:00:09.360
especially that second money in the Band
qualifying match, But there was enough

775
01:00:09.400 --> 01:00:15.679
good wrestling on the show and segments
and I actually enjoyed the miss TV segment

776
01:00:15.599 --> 01:00:20.280
that I thought it was a good
show overall. So let's take a look

777
01:00:20.280 --> 01:00:23.880
at the Twitter poll see what the
world thinks. And the world seems to

778
01:00:23.960 --> 01:00:29.719
agree. Seventy two point six percent
thumbs up for Raw tonight, twenty seven

779
01:00:29.840 --> 01:00:34.880
point four percent thumbs down, with
about eight hundred votes in so far and

780
01:00:35.079 --> 01:00:37.519
counting. So I'll go ahead and
make your voice heard at solom Monster on

781
01:00:37.599 --> 01:00:45.360
Twitter is where you can go to
vote in the polls say it all the

782
01:00:45.440 --> 01:00:50.079
time, you guys know where to
go. Man, We've still got some

783
01:00:50.159 --> 01:00:53.519
work to do for be the booker
if you want to do be the booker

784
01:00:53.639 --> 01:00:58.719
later. The goal is for fifty
tonight, and right now on the likes

785
01:00:58.840 --> 01:01:01.519
end, we're right around nineties.
So we'll see if we make it.

786
01:01:04.480 --> 01:01:07.800
We'll see if we make it's not
looking good, but get those likes up

787
01:01:07.920 --> 01:01:12.599
and we will be the booker a
little bit later on. Let's start out

788
01:01:12.679 --> 01:01:20.760
here with Jackie Fowler, who dropped
a twenty four dollars super chat earlier on

789
01:01:23.920 --> 01:01:28.760
the one record. Roman reigns will
break next week to CM Punk's four hundred

790
01:01:28.840 --> 01:01:34.400
and thirty four day rain as WWE
champion. Maybe if Roman won the WWE

791
01:01:34.559 --> 01:01:37.960
Championship back in twenty twenty instead of
the Universal Championship, he would have passed

792
01:01:38.000 --> 01:01:45.000
Pedro Morales by now. I think
he would have right around this time,

793
01:01:45.159 --> 01:01:52.440
he would have passed Pedro. Naughty
Delicious Chicken with flavor seth Rollins. Outfit,

794
01:01:52.519 --> 01:02:00.760
attire was beautiful and golden. The
World Heavyway title belt has grown on

795
01:02:01.039 --> 01:02:06.199
me. I said this when I
was talking about Roman's belt, that the

796
01:02:06.760 --> 01:02:12.280
World Heavyweight Championship on raw is the
most visually pleasing title now in the entire

797
01:02:12.360 --> 01:02:20.079
time Silver Tower. At least the
World Heavyweight title doesn't look like a clone

798
01:02:20.159 --> 01:02:25.159
of the other belts. It's exactly
right. At least it has its own

799
01:02:25.280 --> 01:02:30.800
personality. Max, and I shouted
out Max earlier on thank you for the

800
01:02:30.880 --> 01:02:39.840
two bucks, says you're a jam
up fella Mansa salomonste Thank you Maxwell,

801
01:02:40.840 --> 01:02:45.360
I appreciate it. Naughty Delicious,
says Eddie Kingston, is part of this

802
01:02:45.480 --> 01:02:50.719
year's g one climax. Yes,
you would know that if you listen to

803
01:02:50.800 --> 01:02:55.679
the sound off I recorded only hours
after that was announced yesterday morning at Dominion

804
01:02:58.360 --> 01:03:01.719
says this naughty delicious chick. And
this is naughty Delicious Chicken here saying that

805
01:03:01.880 --> 01:03:13.840
the hog World Heavyweight Championship title belt
is more beautiful than the undisputed WWE Universal

806
01:03:14.199 --> 01:03:17.880
Title. It's funny we were talking
about championships the other night. I qued

807
01:03:17.960 --> 01:03:22.480
something up in case it came up
against So that super chat is perfect just

808
01:03:22.039 --> 01:03:27.800
for the people who don't know what
the House of Glory world and it's a

809
01:03:27.840 --> 01:03:31.480
new belt too. It was only
introduced last fall. Our World Championship belt

810
01:03:31.519 --> 01:03:35.639
and House of Glory. I got
some video here that I want to queue

811
01:03:35.719 --> 01:03:40.719
up for you to give you a
view. I think this championship is gorgeous

812
01:03:40.760 --> 01:03:46.480
design and to me, I would
much rather hold this than the championship they

813
01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:52.400
presented to Roman reigns on Friday.
Let me look at this belt, beautiful

814
01:03:52.440 --> 01:03:58.440
belt. And I think part of
the problem also is a lot of these

815
01:03:58.559 --> 01:04:04.519
WWE belts now they only have one
plate on each side. So I don't

816
01:04:04.519 --> 01:04:08.960
know. I don't know why that
became a thing. It used to be

817
01:04:09.119 --> 01:04:14.280
two plates. Some belts have three
plates on one side. Now it's just

818
01:04:14.400 --> 01:04:16.159
the middle plate. One plate here, one plate here, and that's it.

819
01:04:17.880 --> 01:04:24.800
I don't like that. I'm not
a fan of them. So anyway,

820
01:04:24.840 --> 01:04:29.000
that proves a naughty, delicious point
that yes, indeed the HG title

821
01:04:30.119 --> 01:04:35.760
it is nicer than the Roman Races
belt Luis with the five dollars super chats.

822
01:04:36.679 --> 01:04:41.239
I love that Kevin Owens has an
impromptu attitude tonight, a great match

823
01:04:41.320 --> 01:04:45.960
between him and Gunther. Really,
that's not what you were telling me in

824
01:04:45.039 --> 01:04:47.800
the chat before you tell me it
wasn't a very good match. Now you're

825
01:04:47.840 --> 01:04:50.440
going back on your word now because
I called j out. No, I'm

826
01:04:50.440 --> 01:04:55.519
just kidding, but now you did
say that now now, Louise, apparently

827
01:04:55.599 --> 01:04:58.960
he's come around. He's come around. Maybe he went back and rewatched the

828
01:04:59.039 --> 01:05:01.159
matter. I think the point he
was making is the finish, which I

829
01:05:01.280 --> 01:05:09.599
agree with, But the match itself
was very good. Naughty says Ronda Rowsy

830
01:05:09.719 --> 01:05:13.519
has that go away heat on her. She's had that goaway heat for a

831
01:05:13.559 --> 01:05:21.360
while, Lady fire Panda with a
twenty dollars super chat. After a crappy

832
01:05:21.480 --> 01:05:26.159
day yesterday, I once again looked
to you, mister monster, to provide

833
01:05:26.199 --> 01:05:30.719
the joy and entertainment that only you
can bring to us. I hope I've

834
01:05:30.760 --> 01:05:38.079
done a decent job of that to
the real CSO two had no idea.

835
01:05:38.159 --> 01:05:41.480
I was a sound off member until
I saw your myrise video went up for

836
01:05:41.599 --> 01:05:45.840
channel member. Well you were,
obviously you were one of the random lucky

837
01:05:45.920 --> 01:05:51.719
recipients of one of the Gifted memberships. So you can thank well who knows

838
01:05:51.760 --> 01:05:56.159
who, right, probably Silver Tower, let's be honest, but you can

839
01:05:56.239 --> 01:05:59.639
thank one of the many who have
been very generous with the Gifted membership.

840
01:06:00.360 --> 01:06:01.920
So well, welcome to the family. And I hope, by the way,

841
01:06:01.960 --> 01:06:04.880
when you're thirty days of that Gifted
membership or up, that you will

842
01:06:04.920 --> 01:06:13.119
consider renewing on your own and staying
a channel. Chris a XC, do

843
01:06:13.239 --> 01:06:16.360
you think any man will strike Rhea
on TV edge? Hitting a spear seemed

844
01:06:16.360 --> 01:06:20.960
to make the most sense and would
avoid a punch. Maybe an usso's super

845
01:06:21.039 --> 01:06:28.599
kick. Yeah, it'll happen at
some point. Just remember Nyah Jackson the

846
01:06:28.679 --> 01:06:30.639
Royal Rumble that year everybody was hitting
their finish on her. I mean that

847
01:06:30.760 --> 01:06:35.840
wasn't that many years ago. So
she's just been teasing it so much and

848
01:06:36.320 --> 01:06:40.360
just tempting fate by telling people,
hit me, hit me, hit me.

849
01:06:41.079 --> 01:06:44.559
At some point, somebody's going to
hit her. Maybe Randy Orton if

850
01:06:44.599 --> 01:06:48.159
he ever comes back, he'll drop
her with an RKO. But do I

851
01:06:48.239 --> 01:06:51.760
think it's going to happen eventually,
Yes, it'll happen eventually. D eh

852
01:06:51.880 --> 01:06:56.199
sire shocked that Vince was able to
sit in Guerrilla and not tear up the

853
01:06:56.280 --> 01:07:04.800
script amy and is definitely going baby
face and getting replaced by mcdonna. Christopher

854
01:07:04.920 --> 01:07:10.400
Smith. Gunther against Ko was great. Gunther is ninety four days away from

855
01:07:10.440 --> 01:07:16.599
breaking the icy record. He stole
the show tonight. The ring Hennerreal is

856
01:07:16.719 --> 01:07:27.159
inevitable ring general. He is a
ring general only thirty more likes for be

857
01:07:27.280 --> 01:07:33.079
the booker. That is the update
from Christopher In the chat. Christopher says

858
01:07:33.400 --> 01:07:40.360
also Gunther wrestles such an old school
throwback style of wrestling, yet it is

859
01:07:40.400 --> 01:07:43.519
not boring and he makes it look
legit, kind of like how he can

860
01:07:43.599 --> 01:07:51.880
win matches with power bombs, rear
naked and clothesline. That's true, Ryan

861
01:07:53.280 --> 01:07:57.119
R. Thank you for the super
chat. Lady fire Panda with another twenty

862
01:07:57.280 --> 01:08:00.079
spot. My dog Cooper has been
getting older and over the years and he

863
01:08:00.159 --> 01:08:05.920
can hardly move anymore. He's an
American bulldog boxer and we got him January

864
01:08:06.039 --> 01:08:10.199
first, twenty eleven. He's been
a huge part of my life. I

865
01:08:10.320 --> 01:08:15.000
am not ready to say goodbye.
I know that feeling. Yeah. I

866
01:08:15.079 --> 01:08:16.880
mean, look, no, no
one is ever ready to say goodbye.

867
01:08:16.920 --> 01:08:21.640
It's the shittiest thing in the world. The only thing that spared me from

868
01:08:21.680 --> 01:08:30.279
having to do that with my cat
she was almost eighteen, was I waited

869
01:08:30.279 --> 01:08:34.359
a little too long. We were
trying something else, as far as like

870
01:08:35.840 --> 01:08:41.119
be twelve shots. I was actually
giving her injections under her skin in the

871
01:08:41.199 --> 01:08:47.680
neck. Every day we were trying. We were trying different things. Walked

872
01:08:47.720 --> 01:08:54.479
into the room one day and there
she was. But we were probably only

873
01:08:54.520 --> 01:08:59.560
a couple of days away from having
to make that decision. And yeah,

874
01:08:59.600 --> 01:09:03.800
it's I don't want to say it's
easier for something like that to happen and

875
01:09:03.920 --> 01:09:09.279
you walk in on that. That's
a terrible thing, but it sucks.

876
01:09:09.439 --> 01:09:13.439
There's no way around it. So
again we're all we're all thinking about you.

877
01:09:14.840 --> 01:09:18.199
The real CS says it's crazy that
Gunther's only pinfall loss in WWE happened

878
01:09:18.199 --> 01:09:23.560
to Drew McIntyre's Survivor series in twenty
nineteen. We try to forget that that

879
01:09:23.640 --> 01:09:29.359
happened. We tried to for that
that was not Gunther, that was Walter.

880
01:09:30.960 --> 01:09:39.880
We'll forget that that happened. Mh
Nova start bench cut Tavish, van

881
01:09:40.039 --> 01:09:46.560
Wick Delta and only the people who
watch the sound Belt gamer videos are gonna

882
01:09:46.560 --> 01:09:54.520
know the Tavish reference. I don't
know, but you can bench the van

883
01:09:54.640 --> 01:09:57.800
Wick. Fuck the bend Wick.
I was actually on the bend Wick today.

884
01:09:57.960 --> 01:10:04.439
Funny enough, funny enough. Brandon
Vasquez, who do you think will

885
01:10:04.479 --> 01:10:09.520
be Gunther for the intercontinental title after
he breaks the record? I wish somehow

886
01:10:09.600 --> 01:10:12.399
it would still be shamous, but
he is on SmackDown, of course,

887
01:10:12.479 --> 01:10:14.159
Well, I mean who cares,
right, I mean, they don't give

888
01:10:14.159 --> 01:10:18.319
a shit about the brand splitz shamous
Shamus. Let's Shamus come to Raw and

889
01:10:18.399 --> 01:10:23.640
beat him for the Intercontinental title since
they don't care about the brand split.

890
01:10:23.920 --> 01:10:30.279
Neither do I. Zachariah sitchin with
the forty nine ninety nine of it.

891
01:10:32.239 --> 01:10:38.479
Your thoughts on Triple H potentially renaming
the women's titles to Women's World Champion and

892
01:10:38.760 --> 01:10:43.760
WWE Women's Champion on SmackDown, Where
it is they're supposed to tweak the belt

893
01:10:43.840 --> 01:10:45.920
designs? All speculation, but would
it be a good idea? That's all

894
01:10:45.960 --> 01:10:50.039
it is right now is speculation of
seeing the same speculation that you are.

895
01:10:50.960 --> 01:10:55.039
I don't care what they call them, as long as they differentiate them.

896
01:10:55.079 --> 01:10:57.399
They don't need to be red and
blue, they don't need to be rawn

897
01:10:57.479 --> 01:11:00.439
smack then any Clearly, this is
going to keep happening and they're gonna have

898
01:11:00.520 --> 01:11:04.720
to keep doing these dumbbelt swaps.
So yeah, I'm in favor of it.

899
01:11:04.840 --> 01:11:08.560
I don't care what they call them, but they have to just get

900
01:11:08.600 --> 01:11:13.199
away from the current branding because it's
stupid. It's stupid. It's a month

901
01:11:13.279 --> 01:11:17.119
after the draft, and we still
have the SmackDown Women's Champion on Rock and

902
01:11:17.239 --> 01:11:25.199
the Raw Women's Champion on Smacked and
now the NXT Women's Tag Team champions on

903
01:11:25.279 --> 01:11:33.720
Smack predicts Bahad. But to answer
your question, yes, it's a good

904
01:11:33.760 --> 01:11:41.359
idea Bahad again. Man, thank
you for the one hundred and twenty dollars

905
01:11:41.600 --> 01:11:49.680
super That is amazing, That will
never not be amazing. Dan Richards Brock

906
01:11:49.800 --> 01:11:55.520
does not work Pride month. He
is a UFC guy. No one has

907
01:11:55.560 --> 01:11:59.039
the guts to tell Brock it is
a different pride app your pride to our

908
01:11:59.319 --> 01:12:04.439
lg be t Franks. Brock does
not. I don't know. Maybe maybe

909
01:12:04.520 --> 01:12:09.199
Brock is sitting at home and you
know he's done, is a little rainbow

910
01:12:09.800 --> 01:12:16.680
rainbow beanie on his head. Who
knows? Who knows? The mount Vernon

911
01:12:16.880 --> 01:12:20.960
Kidd, Christopher Bennett. We need
more of the riddle we saw tonight,

912
01:12:21.039 --> 01:12:26.920
a mixture of teenage mutant ninja turtles, Michael Angelo and Raphael Let's say you

913
01:12:28.199 --> 01:12:32.159
yeah, that's exactly what I said
earlier. We need to see that more

914
01:12:32.239 --> 01:12:36.119
often. It doesn't have to be
all the time, but I definitely think

915
01:12:36.159 --> 01:12:41.399
we need to see that side of
him more offen as opposed to the other

916
01:12:41.520 --> 01:12:45.000
sides of him that I need to
see much less of That sometimes pop up

917
01:12:45.039 --> 01:12:50.439
on social media on my Feen Arabian
night two thousand, what's up with Carrie

918
01:12:50.479 --> 01:12:54.239
and Cross? I thought he was
a Triple H gun. It seems like

919
01:12:54.319 --> 01:12:57.319
they have nothing for him. Could
you see a team with him and Die

920
01:12:57.439 --> 01:13:00.399
Jack? I think they would mesh
well, I don't know how they would

921
01:13:00.479 --> 01:13:08.680
mesh I've never I don't think they've
ever even worked together before, So,

922
01:13:09.159 --> 01:13:12.760
yeah, you know, mashing two
guys together for the sake of doing it.

923
01:13:12.800 --> 01:13:15.119
I'm just generally not really a fan
of that. It is a weird

924
01:13:15.199 --> 01:13:20.720
thing because Cross was a Triple H
guy and they put a lot into that

925
01:13:20.840 --> 01:13:28.560
presentation in NXT of that character,
and Triple AH saw fit to bring him

926
01:13:28.600 --> 01:13:32.359
back, probably thinking he was done
dirty on the main roster the first time,

927
01:13:32.479 --> 01:13:39.720
which he was, and it's just
not clicking. And I don't think

928
01:13:39.720 --> 01:13:42.439
you could put all that on Triple
H either. I think a lot of

929
01:13:42.479 --> 01:13:45.960
it also has to do with carrying
Cross and just the way that he's been

930
01:13:45.039 --> 01:13:49.640
presented in the character these portrays.
I said, you know when they were

931
01:13:49.680 --> 01:13:55.119
in Saudi Arabia that they had these
blogs on the WWE YouTube chat, and

932
01:13:55.199 --> 01:13:58.279
even though he didn't wrestle on that
show, like La Knight was there and

933
01:13:58.399 --> 01:14:02.079
carrying crossed scarlet where they and I
watched them interact together and just act like

934
01:14:02.199 --> 01:14:05.800
normal human beings, and it was
so much more appealing to me than this

935
01:14:06.000 --> 01:14:11.279
bullshit character shit that they're doing with
him on TV that's just not going anywhere.

936
01:14:12.439 --> 01:14:16.520
So I just think it's a matter
of it's the character isn't clicking,

937
01:14:16.600 --> 01:14:20.000
and if they just go a different
way with it and maybe just let him

938
01:14:20.119 --> 01:14:26.079
be more like himself, he might
have a better chance of connecting with the

939
01:14:26.159 --> 01:14:30.560
audience and getting over that one.
Some people I know just don't like his

940
01:14:30.680 --> 01:14:32.079
work in the ring, they don't
see anything special about it. But I

941
01:14:32.119 --> 01:14:38.800
think character wise, there's definitely tweaks
that they can make that might give him

942
01:14:38.800 --> 01:14:41.399
a chance, because at this point, if he just keeps doing the same

943
01:14:41.479 --> 01:14:45.399
thing he's doing, he's not going
anywhere other than probably right back to the

944
01:14:46.119 --> 01:14:50.800
cut line eventually when they start cutting
people, so they're gonna have to try

945
01:14:50.880 --> 01:14:59.600
something different. Manuel Nacias, it
looks like it's a guarantee Roman is staying

946
01:14:59.680 --> 01:15:01.880
champ and until WrestleMania. Now,
are you worried about how they will drag

947
01:15:01.960 --> 01:15:04.800
it out? Seems difficult to drag
it out. I was worried about it

948
01:15:04.880 --> 01:15:09.840
the day they fucking did it.
That hasn't changed. I hope it all

949
01:15:09.920 --> 01:15:15.119
works out for Cody, but it's
very clear that unless he gets into money

950
01:15:15.159 --> 01:15:17.159
in the bank and they do some
big swerve and that's not gonna happen,

951
01:15:18.279 --> 01:15:27.000
that the earliest, the earliest that
Cody would have World Championship gold would be

952
01:15:27.039 --> 01:15:30.880
WrestleMania next year. He's still very
over. Crowd still love him, They

953
01:15:30.920 --> 01:15:34.960
sit, they sing his song,
they react to him. I hope for

954
01:15:35.079 --> 01:15:40.800
his sake that that continues. But
I can't tell you that this brock feud

955
01:15:40.960 --> 01:15:48.920
is doing anything for me personally.
Moist Kai by rent Or Sell Seinfeld seasons

956
01:15:48.960 --> 01:15:55.600
three, four, and five,
Bye Bye Bye sound like in sync now,

957
01:15:55.720 --> 01:16:00.560
Bye bye bye. Seinfeld is it's
the greatest. It's the greatest.

958
01:16:00.600 --> 01:16:03.079
You can't make fat cheap. And
to be honest with you, I just

959
01:16:03.159 --> 01:16:08.520
don't remember offhand all the episodes what
seasons they were attached to, So I

960
01:16:08.600 --> 01:16:12.439
just can't give you an answer.
I know all the episodes, I've seen

961
01:16:12.520 --> 01:16:17.079
every Seinfeld episode at least at least
ten times, because you know syndication always

962
01:16:17.119 --> 01:16:23.680
on television. But what seasons they're
attached to, I don't know. I

963
01:16:23.800 --> 01:16:27.680
don't know, so I can't answer
that winked the cosmic Grandma with the ten

964
01:16:27.720 --> 01:16:32.359
dollars super jot seven years ago,
or in New Japan. If you told

965
01:16:32.399 --> 01:16:35.760
me Ricochet was going to wrestle and
knacka more, it would be must see.

966
01:16:36.560 --> 01:16:41.079
Feels like one kid has all the
coolest toys, it doesn't play the

967
01:16:41.199 --> 01:16:48.920
ones he's had more than a few
days. It's an interesting analogy the Mountain

968
01:16:48.960 --> 01:16:53.239
verning kid. Also, you asked
once before on a stream a street Fighter

969
01:16:53.319 --> 01:16:56.000
six on Steam yesterday. I noticed
that, Yes, thank you. I

970
01:16:57.600 --> 01:17:02.479
after the stream the other night.
I've checked and I downloaded the demo and

971
01:17:02.760 --> 01:17:06.199
it plays. It plays great.
It's just a matter of finding time to

972
01:17:06.279 --> 01:17:11.000
play it. I would consider buying
the game, but I played the demo.

973
01:17:11.079 --> 01:17:15.479
You only have two characters in the
demo, but it's it's a great

974
01:17:15.560 --> 01:17:18.199
it's a great game visually, it's
a fun game to play. Again,

975
01:17:18.239 --> 01:17:21.840
I only have one map, basically
two maps, two maps in the demo,

976
01:17:24.239 --> 01:17:30.239
but I'm thinking about buying the full
game. Oh, it's bombs away

977
01:17:30.319 --> 01:17:35.800
again with Silver Tower, who just
gifted another twenty channel memberships at this point,

978
01:17:36.760 --> 01:17:40.279
because you know, there's already been
a little bit of a drop off

979
01:17:40.319 --> 01:17:45.640
that's probably from some of the previous
gifted membership. So even though we're over

980
01:17:45.760 --> 01:17:47.840
eight hundred, we may we may
end well, maybe not after tonight,

981
01:17:47.960 --> 01:17:53.319
but I was gonna say we're gonna
drop back below eight hundreds soon, but

982
01:17:53.760 --> 01:17:57.920
at this rate, we might actually
hit nine hundred and we open up a

983
01:17:58.000 --> 01:18:02.439
couple more new emoji slot. Silver
Tower, Man, holy shit, twenty

984
01:18:02.760 --> 01:18:06.760
if it memberships. It's Christmas every
week here on the stream. You don't

985
01:18:06.760 --> 01:18:11.880
have to wait until December. Everyone
talks about the holiday season. The holiday

986
01:18:11.960 --> 01:18:15.199
season is here, Man, the
holiday season every week here on the show.

987
01:18:18.039 --> 01:18:26.720
Every week. Sam is La Night
the most over wrestler right now.

988
01:18:27.399 --> 01:18:33.199
No, it depends on your definition
of over. Roman Reigns is over three

989
01:18:33.279 --> 01:18:39.560
million people on SmackDown Friday Night.
I'd say Roman Reigns is over, but

990
01:18:40.079 --> 01:18:44.640
Cody is over, as multiple people
who are over in WWE seth Rollins is

991
01:18:44.720 --> 01:18:47.760
over. La Night is definitely over. I would not say he's the most

992
01:18:47.800 --> 01:18:51.600
over wrestler right now. That's that's
not. I don't think that's accurate.

993
01:18:53.520 --> 01:18:57.760
Winston Smith. If he asked,
would you help Keith Hernandez move? I

994
01:18:57.840 --> 01:19:05.920
would? I would. I would
help Keith Hernandez move partly just because I

995
01:19:06.000 --> 01:19:13.119
also want to meet Hajji is his
cat. I would. I vowed I

996
01:19:13.159 --> 01:19:15.119
would not get another cat. I
would not get another pet after I lost

997
01:19:15.199 --> 01:19:20.760
my last one. Plus I'm allergic
anyway, So but I would help Keith

998
01:19:20.760 --> 01:19:26.079
Hernandez move. Yes, I would. Arabian Night says on your podcast talking

999
01:19:26.119 --> 01:19:29.560
about the women's roster not being compelling. Do you think a reason is Triple

1000
01:19:29.720 --> 01:19:33.880
H lost a lot of his depth
and established women to a e W when

1001
01:19:34.000 --> 01:19:39.840
he was sick and wasn't in power, Ruby, Athena Storm, Taia and

1002
01:19:40.039 --> 01:19:44.920
Sasha. That's part of the problem. Sure they did. They lost some

1003
01:19:45.119 --> 01:19:50.159
depth. They have a lot of
depth right now in NXT, but they

1004
01:19:50.239 --> 01:19:55.439
lost a lot of very talented women. You know Tony Storm. I still

1005
01:19:56.239 --> 01:19:59.760
I still don't know exactly how that
all played out, But Tony Storm basically

1006
01:20:00.119 --> 01:20:01.920
worked the house show. One day
she was in a triple threat with Sasha

1007
01:20:01.960 --> 01:20:05.680
and Charlotte, and then the next
day she just she couldn't wait to get

1008
01:20:05.720 --> 01:20:09.000
the hell out of there, and
she just flew herself home on her own

1009
01:20:09.039 --> 01:20:13.640
dime. It never came back,
and surprisingly they just let her go.

1010
01:20:13.840 --> 01:20:17.560
They let her out of her contract. Very weird situation, but she obviously

1011
01:20:17.680 --> 01:20:20.319
saw the writing on the wall and
said, I'm just not happy doing this.

1012
01:20:23.000 --> 01:20:27.239
So they lost Tony, losing Sasha
and Naomi, especially Sasha. I

1013
01:20:27.279 --> 01:20:33.079
mean that was a huge loss for
that women's division. Huge and it looked

1014
01:20:33.119 --> 01:20:36.439
it wasn't like WW we fired her, but they made obviously they made the

1015
01:20:36.479 --> 01:20:42.840
conditions such that she felt like she
had to walk out. But yeah,

1016
01:20:42.880 --> 01:20:47.760
Athena Ruby Ruby, they lost a
lot of talented women. But you can't

1017
01:20:47.800 --> 01:20:53.600
just lay it all on the women
they lost, because there's plenty of women

1018
01:20:53.600 --> 01:20:56.640
who were still there, and it's
all about how you use them. How

1019
01:20:56.680 --> 01:21:00.199
do you utilize these how do you
utilize the people that you you have?

1020
01:21:01.319 --> 01:21:05.640
So I don't want to excuse him
just because he lost a bunch of different

1021
01:21:06.039 --> 01:21:14.279
female stars, and the Data and
Boys podcast says, where's dom Dom today?

1022
01:21:14.479 --> 01:21:20.199
If edge we're still in the judgment, I don't know if they would

1023
01:21:20.199 --> 01:21:23.640
have turned him heal or not.
I feel like they would have, but

1024
01:21:23.760 --> 01:21:27.720
would he be is over probably not. I think it's been very important that

1025
01:21:27.880 --> 01:21:31.960
he hangs out with Finn Balor and
and that whole crew and learns from them.

1026
01:21:32.720 --> 01:21:35.600
I'm sure there's you know, he's
sitting under the learning tree every day.

1027
01:21:36.840 --> 01:21:44.319
So without that, you know,
without that influence, he can hang

1028
01:21:44.359 --> 01:21:47.000
around his father. But I mean, he's got a branch out and do

1029
01:21:47.079 --> 01:21:49.640
his own thing, and he's been
able to do that with the judgment day.

1030
01:21:49.640 --> 01:21:55.319
I think it's also helped him feel
more comfortable being on camera and doing

1031
01:21:55.399 --> 01:22:00.840
promos. So I don't know,
you know, he's not as far as

1032
01:22:00.880 --> 01:22:02.800
long as he is now. I
don't believe he's as far along as he

1033
01:22:02.920 --> 01:22:06.359
is now if he does not join
the judgment. That was one of the

1034
01:22:06.479 --> 01:22:16.560
best booking decisions that that company made
all year. So thank you, thank

1035
01:22:16.560 --> 01:22:24.640
you for the super ched I appreciate
that. So we where were we before?

1036
01:22:24.720 --> 01:22:27.119
We were a little under our goal
for be the booker, but the

1037
01:22:27.199 --> 01:22:31.159
goal was four fifty and we are
now at four sixty four. I'm very

1038
01:22:31.239 --> 01:22:35.319
happy to see that. Thank you, guys. It does help very much

1039
01:22:35.640 --> 01:22:40.680
the video in the algorithm. The
more you guys like it, the more

1040
01:22:40.760 --> 01:22:44.960
you engage with it. Leave a
comment, drop a tip after the fact

1041
01:22:45.039 --> 01:22:48.119
tips are open as well. All
that shit helps the video out a lot,

1042
01:22:48.159 --> 01:22:51.119
all right, so let's let's get
into it here. It's time to

1043
01:22:51.159 --> 01:22:57.239
be the booker. Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time to be the

1044
01:22:57.479 --> 01:23:04.239
booker. There he is the Ring
General himself. Hey, Austin Tucker in

1045
01:23:04.359 --> 01:23:09.159
the live chat says, I listened
to the full podcast for the first time

1046
01:23:09.279 --> 01:23:14.039
last night. I had to skip
the dark side of the Ring part since

1047
01:23:14.079 --> 01:23:16.479
I haven't watched the episode yet,
but the rest was a good listen.

1048
01:23:16.560 --> 01:23:19.039
Well, Austin, I'm very happy
that you enjoyed it. That is the

1049
01:23:19.119 --> 01:23:24.800
flagship show. Everybody should be listening
to the main sound of every Sunday.

1050
01:23:25.880 --> 01:23:28.560
Some people think that there is no
sound of. They just think I cut

1051
01:23:28.880 --> 01:23:32.159
I just record three minute clips and
seven minute clips and just throw them up

1052
01:23:32.199 --> 01:23:39.000
on the channel. But you know, there's two distinctly different audiences for the

1053
01:23:39.119 --> 01:23:43.520
sound off. It's it's fascinating for
me to see. But it's always nice

1054
01:23:43.520 --> 01:23:45.880
to get a message from somebody who
has never listened to the full show before

1055
01:23:46.239 --> 01:23:48.800
and they listen to it and then
they enjoy it and they stick with it.

1056
01:23:50.039 --> 01:23:54.840
So thank you, Austin. I
appreciate that. All right, let's

1057
01:23:55.079 --> 01:24:01.520
kick things off here with the men's
be the book. We redeemed ourselves a

1058
01:24:01.560 --> 01:24:05.479
little bit on Friday because we had
a horrible early part of the week last

1059
01:24:05.520 --> 01:24:11.520
week and we went to over three
back to back time. So brand new

1060
01:24:11.560 --> 01:24:14.359
week, brand new time, fresh
start. Here we go. Kick things

1061
01:24:14.439 --> 01:24:20.720
off with former Ring of Honor world
champion Jay Lethal. Very talented Jay Lethal.

1062
01:24:23.800 --> 01:24:29.159
I consider that to be a good
start. Here to be the booker.

1063
01:24:29.720 --> 01:24:33.239
Jay Lethal gonna go one on one
with Brett the hit man hearts.

1064
01:24:35.079 --> 01:24:44.199
I cannot hit that bell fast enough. Bret Hart and Jay Lethal. I

1065
01:24:44.279 --> 01:24:46.199
think Jay Lethal would like to get
in the ring with Bret Hart and his

1066
01:24:46.319 --> 01:24:50.319
prime. I think so. I
think you asked any wrestler today, would

1067
01:24:50.359 --> 01:24:53.880
you like to get in the ring
with Bret Hart in his prime? The

1068
01:24:53.960 --> 01:24:58.079
answer is going to be a resounding
yes. I would. Even the women

1069
01:24:58.439 --> 01:25:00.399
would like to get in the ring. Well, I'm sure they would,

1070
01:25:00.439 --> 01:25:03.920
But even the ladies would love to
wrestle Bret Hart. If you read his

1071
01:25:04.039 --> 01:25:08.880
book, He's wrestled plenty of ladies
over the years on the road. All

1072
01:25:08.960 --> 01:25:12.359
Right, women's be the booker.
Here we go. Bret Hart is not

1073
01:25:12.560 --> 01:25:15.319
in women's be the booker. Maybe
I should add him though he does wear

1074
01:25:15.399 --> 01:25:25.640
pink. We begin with Stephanie McMahon, now the mastermind of the Women's Evolution.

1075
01:25:26.840 --> 01:25:33.119
Just ask her, she'll tell you. Stephanie McMahon former w w E

1076
01:25:33.279 --> 01:25:44.319
CEO for what about a month?
Stephanie McMahon against Hikaru Shida. What do

1077
01:25:44.399 --> 01:25:50.520
you guys think Hikarusa and Stephanie McMahon
Sheda taking the kendo stick to Stephanie.

1078
01:25:54.640 --> 01:26:01.640
I think Sheida would light her up
with that kendo stick. Feeling generous tonight?

1079
01:26:02.720 --> 01:26:13.039
Two for two, two for two? All right? Tag team time.

1080
01:26:14.079 --> 01:26:19.880
We begin with Miss and Big Show. Now take a look at this

1081
01:26:19.960 --> 01:26:25.279
photo. I have no recollection of
them having both sets of tag team belts.

1082
01:26:26.840 --> 01:26:30.439
So here we are in twenty twenty
three and we have Kevin Owens and

1083
01:26:30.560 --> 01:26:35.439
Sammy Zane walking around with the Raw
Tag team titles and the SmackDown Tag Team

1084
01:26:35.479 --> 01:26:42.239
titles. But before Kevin Owens and
Sammy Zane did it, Big Show and

1085
01:26:42.399 --> 01:26:47.279
Miss did it, and I have
no memory of it. So it'll be

1086
01:26:47.680 --> 01:26:50.880
SHOWMZ. Is that what they call
themselves, right, show MZ. I

1087
01:26:50.960 --> 01:26:59.640
think that was their name, Showmans
And to defend their apparently their unified tag

1088
01:26:59.680 --> 01:27:14.199
team titles against Jungle Boy and Lucasaurus. Jurassic Express former ae W Tag Team

1089
01:27:14.399 --> 01:27:24.039
champions against Showmis three for three.
I know there's gonna be people who disagree

1090
01:27:24.119 --> 01:27:27.000
with those last two choices. How
can you pick ball? How can you

1091
01:27:27.119 --> 01:27:34.479
give the bell to both? I
throw those emojis up. Now, Showmis

1092
01:27:34.520 --> 01:27:42.039
against the Jurassic Express. I think
that'd be a good match. So how

1093
01:27:42.079 --> 01:27:45.439
about that after going over three back
to back last week, we start the

1094
01:27:45.479 --> 01:27:50.119
week going three and ol, we've
gone the opposite way. Now that's great.

1095
01:27:50.159 --> 01:27:58.159
I love it, fantastic. All
right, So good show tonight.

1096
01:27:58.439 --> 01:28:01.399
I thought raw was a definite provement
from some of the garbage they've given us

1097
01:28:01.479 --> 01:28:06.880
recently. Hopefully this can continue into
Wednesday. Tony Khan, for those who

1098
01:28:06.920 --> 01:28:11.279
don't know, is going to have
an announcement. I know you're shock.

1099
01:28:11.319 --> 01:28:14.479
I'm shocked myself. I can't believe
it, But Tony Khan is going to

1100
01:28:14.560 --> 01:28:19.000
have an announcement on Dynamite this Wednesday, and he is going to announce the

1101
01:28:19.159 --> 01:28:26.079
main event of the very first episode
of ae W Collision on June seventeenth,

1102
01:28:27.039 --> 01:28:30.640
which may or may not involve CM
Punk. I think Punk should wrestle on

1103
01:28:30.720 --> 01:28:34.600
that show. If he does,
who does he wrestle? Does he wrestle

1104
01:28:36.039 --> 01:28:43.039
Samoa Joe? Does he wrestle?
Switchblade j White? Tony kNN will make

1105
01:28:43.079 --> 01:28:48.640
that announcement on Wednesday. And I
cannot believe my eyes but I just saw

1106
01:28:49.000 --> 01:28:55.239
Do my eyes deceive me? No? They do not. Booloo faught Tulu

1107
01:28:56.760 --> 01:29:02.319
has renewed his Sound of Legend status
his channel membership here on the channel Booloo

1108
01:29:03.680 --> 01:29:12.000
Booloo. I mean I thought Booloo
was lost to time. I thought he

1109
01:29:12.119 --> 01:29:16.319
was gone forever. Booloo is still
with us. I'm very happy to see

1110
01:29:16.359 --> 01:29:23.279
that there. He is very happy
to see Booloo back with us, even

1111
01:29:23.319 --> 01:29:28.000
though we're almost done here. So
Tony Comb will have that announcement on Wednesday,

1112
01:29:28.319 --> 01:29:31.399
and we'll be here live after Dynamite
Live again on SmackDown on Friday.

1113
01:29:31.439 --> 01:29:35.079
Apparently another big Bloodline segment is coming. Jay Usso is gonna have to make

1114
01:29:35.119 --> 01:29:39.800
a decision whose side is he on? As Bobby Heenan once said, whose

1115
01:29:39.880 --> 01:29:44.880
side is jay Usso on? And
we'll get more money in the bank qualifying

1116
01:29:44.960 --> 01:29:46.600
matches as well. Actually they got
four of them. I think we have

1117
01:29:46.720 --> 01:29:51.000
four money in the bank qualifiers set
up for Friday. Mia Yim is gonna.

1118
01:29:51.119 --> 01:29:55.359
I know Mia Yim is in one
of them shots. He is in

1119
01:29:55.479 --> 01:30:01.840
another Baron Corbyn is wrestling, Butch
and I forgot the other one. I

1120
01:30:01.960 --> 01:30:04.560
forgot the other one off hand.
But there's four of them on Friday.

1121
01:30:04.880 --> 01:30:09.119
So a lot of content coming up
