21
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:30.760
<v Speaker 2>of SummerSlam in this particular episode. But to help me

22
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:34.760
<v Speaker 2>talk about that, let's bring in our wrestling memorabilia collection

23
00:01:35.040 --> 00:01:40.280
<v Speaker 2>expert as well as our TNA expert as well.

24
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:41.680
<v Speaker 3>His name is Chico.

25
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:44.239
<v Speaker 2>You can follow him at Coca Collecttion Chico Nugid and

26
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:47.200
<v Speaker 2>he also on his stream yard caption at the bottom

27
00:01:47.239 --> 00:01:49.159
<v Speaker 2>here he says thank you Brock.

28
00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:55.200
<v Speaker 4>Yes, he confirmed about a day or so before this

29
00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:59.920
<v Speaker 4>broadcasts is airing. Brock did confirm on the pat MCCA

30
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:03.400
<v Speaker 4>he showed that he is indeed retired from professional wrestling.

31
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:09.120
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, and you know, one of those I've been

32
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:13.280
<v Speaker 2>hearing a lot of things about Brock Lessner lately, and

33
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:15.680
<v Speaker 2>a lot of it is a lot of admiration, a

34
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:20.319
<v Speaker 2>lot of appreciation, and that's something that is hilarious that

35
00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:25.360
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of hilarious to me if this were to

36
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:28.319
<v Speaker 2>be two thousand and seven, two thousand and eight me,

37
00:02:28.719 --> 00:02:32.919
<v Speaker 2>because you know, Brock at the time, he didn't seem

38
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:36.280
<v Speaker 2>like he really was appreciative of his time in the business,

39
00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:39.199
<v Speaker 2>But as it turns out, when you look at the

40
00:02:39.199 --> 00:02:42.879
<v Speaker 2>full career, he really is very very much appreciative of

41
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:45.719
<v Speaker 2>all of the WWE has given to him and the

42
00:02:45.759 --> 00:02:49.479
<v Speaker 2>opportunities that it created for him later on, and he

43
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:51.240
<v Speaker 2>was able to give back to the business the.

44
00:02:51.199 --> 00:02:52.120
<v Speaker 3>Way that a.

45
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:58.759
<v Speaker 2>Wrestling superstar really does and really should as they become

46
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.560
<v Speaker 2>more famous and other people are coming up in the

47
00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:03.240
<v Speaker 2>business that will replace them.

48
00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:04.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

49
00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:08.439
<v Speaker 4>No, And I mean, I guess what you're referring to

50
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:12.280
<v Speaker 4>is him being ungrateful around two thousand and eight or nine,

51
00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:13.080
<v Speaker 4>you were saying.

52
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:15.080
<v Speaker 3>Well, a, yeah, the mid two thousands, this kind of era.

53
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:17.159
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well, I mean that's the time when he was

54
00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:18.759
<v Speaker 4>not in the company for quite a while. So I

55
00:03:18.759 --> 00:03:21.639
<v Speaker 4>mean he came back with twenty eleven or twenty twelve, so, uh,

56
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:26.520
<v Speaker 4>you know, for the time that he was gone, Yeah,

57
00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:30.080
<v Speaker 4>he didn't really he didn't really speak too kindly WWE.

58
00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:33.879
<v Speaker 4>I think they were embroiled in lawsuits even back and forth.

59
00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:36.280
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, around that time, yeah, he was, he was

60
00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:41.199
<v Speaker 4>in legal fights against WWE. So but then you know,

61
00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:43.680
<v Speaker 4>I'm glad they patched it up because Brock honestly, and

62
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:45.639
<v Speaker 4>he's shown it since he's come back to the company

63
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:50.080
<v Speaker 4>and like again twenty eleven or something like that, he

64
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:55.960
<v Speaker 4>knows how to do pro wrestling. He knows how to sell,

65
00:03:56.080 --> 00:04:00.599
<v Speaker 4>he knows how to he knows when to choose somebody

66
00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:05.400
<v Speaker 4>that needs to be pushed to a higher spot on

67
00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:08.560
<v Speaker 4>the card, and part of that is his duties as

68
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:11.599
<v Speaker 4>a big guy who was formerly the next big thing

69
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:15.759
<v Speaker 4>to raise the profile of the actual big thing that.

70
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:17.720
<v Speaker 3>Is after him, you know, generation wise.

71
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:21.560
<v Speaker 4>So he's such a true pro and no matter what

72
00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:25.040
<v Speaker 4>people say about him, you know, he's he's definitely an

73
00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:28.920
<v Speaker 4>all time great in my books, and to me, an

74
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:30.759
<v Speaker 4>absolute first ballot Hall of Famer.

75
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:33.879
<v Speaker 2>And I'm sure that's probably gonna be one of the

76
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:37.920
<v Speaker 2>names that will be bandied about in wrestling from WrestleMania

77
00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:41.759
<v Speaker 2>forty three, possibly well in WrestleMania forty four when it

78
00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:45.240
<v Speaker 2>does come back to the United States, because presumably yeah,

79
00:04:45.279 --> 00:04:47.199
<v Speaker 2>well yeah, hopefully with I mean, like I'd like to

80
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:48.879
<v Speaker 2>hope that it comes back to the United States or

81
00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:50.720
<v Speaker 2>at least in North America, because I would love to

82
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.639
<v Speaker 2>have it here in Toronto. But you know, the fact

83
00:04:53.720 --> 00:04:56.199
<v Speaker 2>chance of that happening now was, you know, with everything

84
00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:59.399
<v Speaker 2>else that's happening with the WWWE these days. But one

85
00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:02.439
<v Speaker 2>of the things that I mean, Minnesota was a poster

86
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:04.600
<v Speaker 2>host of WrestleMania. But then they did it, but they

87
00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:08.120
<v Speaker 2>got SummerSlam and to be it and to be perfectly

88
00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:10.399
<v Speaker 2>honest with you, not just you, Chico, but also to

89
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:12.879
<v Speaker 2>our listening audience on SACO nine sixty and our your

90
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:16.920
<v Speaker 2>favorite Podcastcher And I would have to say that this actually,

91
00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:20.360
<v Speaker 2>this Summer Slam weekend, I actually enjoyed it a lot

92
00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:22.600
<v Speaker 2>more than they did WrestleMania this year.

93
00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:25.600
<v Speaker 4>I'm not sure i'd have to go back and kind

94
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:29.360
<v Speaker 4>of see which event I liked more, but I will

95
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:32.600
<v Speaker 4>agree that SummerSlam was a pretty dang good two days

96
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.160
<v Speaker 4>of premium live event action.

97
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:35.959
<v Speaker 3>Mm hmm.

98
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:39.600
<v Speaker 2>And And to summarize those things right now, we're're gonna

99
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:42.879
<v Speaker 2>start by looking at Night one, which was August. The

100
00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:46.759
<v Speaker 2>first six matches both nights, actually six matches, a pretty

101
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:49.800
<v Speaker 2>decent pacing and decent amount of time for the card.

102
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:51.120
<v Speaker 3>Plus you know, of course.

103
00:05:50.959 --> 00:05:54.399
<v Speaker 2>The uh, the the pro post shows and the pre

104
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.319
<v Speaker 2>shows and stuff like that too, so h But for

105
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:00.079
<v Speaker 2>the main card itself, we've got the first match of

106
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:03.480
<v Speaker 2>the night started off with Live Morgan defeating EO Sky

107
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:07.199
<v Speaker 2>for the Women's championship in a match that to thirteen

108
00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:10.959
<v Speaker 2>minutes and thirty five seconds. There, she's their first solidifying

109
00:06:10.959 --> 00:06:13.839
<v Speaker 2>at least in her in lives mind to be the

110
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:15.439
<v Speaker 2>greatest women's champion.

111
00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:19.319
<v Speaker 3>Of all time.

112
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:21.439
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, we don't have a we don't have a

113
00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:23.000
<v Speaker 2>lot of time on the air right now, so I

114
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:25.319
<v Speaker 2>can't really go as far as what Morgan does.

115
00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:27.319
<v Speaker 3>But uh, second match.

116
00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:30.120
<v Speaker 2>Of the evening was La Knight Solo Soakoa and Royce

117
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:33.839
<v Speaker 2>Keys defeating the Bloodline of Jacob Fatu Jay and Jimmy

118
00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:37.120
<v Speaker 2>Usa by pinfall. That match was eleven minutes on the

119
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:42.480
<v Speaker 2>dot and that was and and that certainly did not

120
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:47.000
<v Speaker 2>put either of the three on the Bloodline on Roman's

121
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:49.639
<v Speaker 2>good side for the night and also for a Monday

122
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:51.360
<v Speaker 2>Night Raw, which we'll talk about a little bit later.

123
00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:55.800
<v Speaker 2>Then we've had Nick Aldis getting back into the ring

124
00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:01.519
<v Speaker 2>in front of his wife and his kid, and unfortunately

125
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:04.240
<v Speaker 2>for nick All this going thro defeated him in a

126
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:07.279
<v Speaker 2>match that took eleven minutes and forty seconds. Great match,

127
00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:11.000
<v Speaker 2>I think, you know, for nick Aldo's first match back

128
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:14.319
<v Speaker 2>as the first match in the WWE and the first

129
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:16.360
<v Speaker 2>match back in I don't know how many years now,

130
00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:19.120
<v Speaker 2>I think maybe two or three years. Good job by

131
00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:20.600
<v Speaker 2>Nick all this and I want to see him a

132
00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:21.759
<v Speaker 2>little bit more in the ring again.

133
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:23.360
<v Speaker 3>That would be awesome if it could happen.

134
00:07:23.800 --> 00:07:28.240
<v Speaker 2>Fatal Influence, JC, Jane, Fallon Henley and Lady Reid defeat

135
00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:32.240
<v Speaker 2>the Bella Twins Nikki and Brie and Page by pinfall,

136
00:07:32.519 --> 00:07:35.480
<v Speaker 2>and of course, and of course the turn on Page

137
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:38.199
<v Speaker 2>as well as that said that, then Nicki and Brie

138
00:07:38.360 --> 00:07:43.959
<v Speaker 2>are back to their classic heel cells and yes you

139
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:46.319
<v Speaker 2>can look and you can't, but you can't touch. And

140
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:48.759
<v Speaker 2>now Page really can't touch them because.

141
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:53.360
<v Speaker 4>Unbelievably though, in the process of that match, it's just

142
00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:58.680
<v Speaker 4>too bad, Brie Bella got her scapula broken. Oh good god,

143
00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:00.000
<v Speaker 4>he's out for months.

144
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:03.120
<v Speaker 2>Well, it looks like some looks like some Bella is

145
00:08:03.160 --> 00:08:05.800
<v Speaker 2>gonna have to be a little bit more apologetic to

146
00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:08.160
<v Speaker 2>Page because maybe they might need to do go for

147
00:08:08.199 --> 00:08:10.519
<v Speaker 2>another tag team run with that one, and then you

148
00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:14.319
<v Speaker 2>can have a three way dance later on in the

149
00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:17.680
<v Speaker 2>later on of the year, possibly at WrestleMania, but who knows,

150
00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:20.519
<v Speaker 2>we'll find out as we go along. But the next

151
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:23.720
<v Speaker 2>match of the night was see Him Punk defeating Cody

152
00:08:23.800 --> 00:08:28.199
<v Speaker 2>Rose by pinfall, a match for the undisputed WWE Championship.

153
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:30.560
<v Speaker 3>That's thirty minutes and ten seconds.

154
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:35.399
<v Speaker 2>Again, what can you say about these two superstars as

155
00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:38.279
<v Speaker 2>that like they just like there's a reason why see

156
00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:40.440
<v Speaker 2>them Punk and Cody Roads were put together. There's a

157
00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:43.200
<v Speaker 2>reason why Roman Reigns and Set Drowns were put together

158
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:46.240
<v Speaker 2>for the main event of Summer Slam this year. And

159
00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:48.399
<v Speaker 2>they all and both of them I believe lived up

160
00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:51.000
<v Speaker 2>to it all. And then at the and then the

161
00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:53.519
<v Speaker 2>co main event did say with the final match of

162
00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:56.639
<v Speaker 2>the evening on Saturday night was Obafemi as we talked

163
00:08:56.639 --> 00:08:59.080
<v Speaker 2>about at the top of the show, defeating brock Lessener

164
00:08:59.159 --> 00:09:03.600
<v Speaker 2>and in a cell. And this was Lesner's retirement match.

165
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:08.840
<v Speaker 2>Eleven minutes and forty seconds. I honestly wasn't exactly thrilled

166
00:09:08.879 --> 00:09:12.919
<v Speaker 2>about how the finish came about, and I was the

167
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:18.320
<v Speaker 2>result was correct. You do want to have the next

168
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:20.960
<v Speaker 2>big thing go over to the previous, go over the

169
00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:25.159
<v Speaker 2>previous next big thing, uh in this case, but uh,

170
00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:28.600
<v Speaker 2>the finish of the match, Chico as as I as

171
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:36.000
<v Speaker 2>I recall it was brock Lesner actually employing the Undertaker's tombstone,

172
00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:40.399
<v Speaker 2>exposing ripping up the canvas and ripping up the the

173
00:09:40.559 --> 00:09:46.399
<v Speaker 2>the the the protective foamy, the protective foam, exposing the

174
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:49.679
<v Speaker 2>plywood or whatever it's called or the wooden boards that

175
00:09:49.720 --> 00:09:54.440
<v Speaker 2>make up the ring and tombstoning uh Obafemi. There Oba

176
00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:58.080
<v Speaker 2>Femi kicks out of two, but then Obami gets his

177
00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:03.080
<v Speaker 2>finishing move on Brock shortly afterwards, but on an on

178
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:05.639
<v Speaker 2>a covered on a regular part of the ring and

179
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:08.720
<v Speaker 2>still got the pinfall against Brock. I think it should

180
00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:13.080
<v Speaker 2>have been that finisher, that power bomb on from on

181
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:17.600
<v Speaker 2>brock Lessener onto the exposed on the exposed wood man.

182
00:10:17.879 --> 00:10:19.559
<v Speaker 3>That could have been so much more.

183
00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:23.559
<v Speaker 4>I share your sentiment, and then in that, I mean,

184
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:27.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm just kind of paraphrasing and putting words in your mouth,

185
00:10:27.360 --> 00:10:28.840
<v Speaker 4>but it kind of felt flat at the end.

186
00:10:29.799 --> 00:10:32.480
<v Speaker 2>You're not putting well, no, no, well, you're not putting

187
00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:34.559
<v Speaker 2>words in my mouth. I think it did fall flat

188
00:10:34.639 --> 00:10:38.240
<v Speaker 2>because of the fact that Oba should Oba and Brock

189
00:10:38.279 --> 00:10:43.279
<v Speaker 2>should have used the exposed wood of the ring in

190
00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:46.799
<v Speaker 2>order to finish off brock Lessner, because you know, it's uh,

191
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:49.799
<v Speaker 2>it's But at the same time, I also kind of

192
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:54.000
<v Speaker 2>understand that Oba is so powerful. They're trying to make

193
00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:59.000
<v Speaker 2>Oba look so powerful that he doesn't need that the

194
00:10:59.200 --> 00:11:01.799
<v Speaker 2>the shady Actually all he needs is the wrestling ring

195
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:02.960
<v Speaker 2>to take off Rock Lessner.

196
00:11:03.720 --> 00:11:08.159
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well, you know, overall, decent match. The start was good,

197
00:11:08.200 --> 00:11:11.600
<v Speaker 4>middle was good, but like you said, wish it was

198
00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:12.440
<v Speaker 4>a better ending.

199
00:11:12.919 --> 00:11:15.440
<v Speaker 3>Mmmmmm. Now here's the thing.

200
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:19.799
<v Speaker 2>When now, when it comes to Cody Rhodes and see

201
00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:24.279
<v Speaker 2>them Punk, where do they go from? Where does Cody

202
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:24.840
<v Speaker 2>go from here?

203
00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:25.080
<v Speaker 3>Now?

204
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:28.320
<v Speaker 2>Because because we know that CM Punk went to the

205
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:32.919
<v Speaker 2>to the post show and he's basically basically again reiterating

206
00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:35.679
<v Speaker 2>that he's a fighting champion. He is going to go.

207
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:38.559
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't matter who it's going to be, he is

208
00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:41.919
<v Speaker 2>going to go and uh just continue to be a

209
00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:42.799
<v Speaker 2>fighting champion.

210
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:45.480
<v Speaker 3>But what happens with Cody here now?

211
00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:49.559
<v Speaker 4>Oh my gosh. I wish I had an answer for you.

212
00:11:49.639 --> 00:11:53.080
<v Speaker 4>I think the wrong answer would be for him to

213
00:11:53.120 --> 00:11:54.320
<v Speaker 4>get the title back quickly.

214
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:55.080
<v Speaker 3>Hm.

215
00:11:55.720 --> 00:11:58.960
<v Speaker 4>I think that him on the chase. I think that's

216
00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:03.759
<v Speaker 4>more interesting at least for now, because he has had

217
00:12:04.159 --> 00:12:09.840
<v Speaker 4>plenty of w w undispeedd Championship months and you know,

218
00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:13.919
<v Speaker 4>like you know, number of days and all that. I

219
00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:20.200
<v Speaker 4>think we definitely could use a break from a lengthier

220
00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:24.039
<v Speaker 4>title run, which Cody just came out of recently. So

221
00:12:25.159 --> 00:12:27.519
<v Speaker 4>I don't know what to say, like where to send Cody?

222
00:12:27.559 --> 00:12:29.440
<v Speaker 4>I guess you can give him a bunch of feuds.

223
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:33.279
<v Speaker 4>I mean, Baron Corbyn's back. Big Cast just came back.

224
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:36.720
<v Speaker 4>You know, there are people that you compare him with.

225
00:12:38.480 --> 00:12:41.080
<v Speaker 4>But then I guess it's Cody Rhoades. He's QB one.

226
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:45.679
<v Speaker 4>So he ought to be in the periphery of the

227
00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:49.360
<v Speaker 4>WWE championship scene at some point again, but.

228
00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:50.559
<v Speaker 3>He doesn't have to hold it right now.

229
00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:55.399
<v Speaker 2>And you know what, I'll also one of the people

230
00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:58.919
<v Speaker 2>that I think that actually could start to make that

231
00:12:59.039 --> 00:13:01.879
<v Speaker 2>championship run, to be at least on the championship scene

232
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:02.720
<v Speaker 2>yet again.

233
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:03.519
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

234
00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:06.480
<v Speaker 2>And that's and and this is something that uh we

235
00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:09.879
<v Speaker 2>saw on Monday Night with l A. Knight. Uh finally

236
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:12.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, getting in the face of Roman Reigns and

237
00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:14.679
<v Speaker 2>uh uh and and and and having his say and

238
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:17.240
<v Speaker 2>even Roman Reins is like, you know what he told

239
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:22.080
<v Speaker 2>as a punishment to Jacob Jay and Jimmy for not

240
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:24.600
<v Speaker 2>getting the victory, that he that they were not allowed

241
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:26.720
<v Speaker 2>to touch l A. Knight, that he was the one

242
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:28.519
<v Speaker 2>that was gonna that that he was gonna be the

243
00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:30.279
<v Speaker 2>one that was gonna go take l A Night out

244
00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:32.919
<v Speaker 2>when the time came. But he didn't need to. But

245
00:13:32.919 --> 00:13:36.039
<v Speaker 2>but Uh, he's not going to force l A. Knight

246
00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:37.759
<v Speaker 2>to come to him or yeah, he's not going to

247
00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:39.080
<v Speaker 2>force himself to go to l A.

248
00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:39.440
<v Speaker 3>Knight.

249
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:42.320
<v Speaker 2>He's gonna just wait for for for things to happen

250
00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:46.240
<v Speaker 2>and for l A. Knight to just be naturally into periphery,

251
00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:48.519
<v Speaker 2>which I think is kind of is a bit of

252
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:49.919
<v Speaker 2>a power move there by Roman Reigns.

253
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:52.879
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I guess, so not nothing much to say about

254
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:55.919
<v Speaker 4>that on my end. So yeah, I guess we're just

255
00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:58.159
<v Speaker 4>moving on like it's it was a it was a

256
00:13:58.159 --> 00:14:00.519
<v Speaker 4>good summer slam. I'm just a little puzzle. That's to

257
00:14:00.519 --> 00:14:03.000
<v Speaker 4>where we go from here. But uh, you know, keep

258
00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:04.440
<v Speaker 4>keep going, keep running it down.

259
00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:06.879
<v Speaker 3>Mm hmm. Well that was Sunday night there.

260
00:14:06.919 --> 00:14:10.720
<v Speaker 2>But uh, what we're gonna do is we're gonna get

261
00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:13.519
<v Speaker 2>into night two because I think Night two, personally for me,

262
00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:18.240
<v Speaker 2>was the more interesting night of the two. And I

263
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:20.919
<v Speaker 2>think and uh and I but I do like the

264
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:24.600
<v Speaker 2>way that the upward trajectory happened because Night one was

265
00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:27.440
<v Speaker 2>a good what was a good night anyway, but it

266
00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:31.960
<v Speaker 2>also did set the table, uh without you know, blowing

267
00:14:32.000 --> 00:14:33.840
<v Speaker 2>it out of the water, so that Night two kind

268
00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:36.200
<v Speaker 2>of falls flat. I think Night two was actually the

269
00:14:36.240 --> 00:14:38.960
<v Speaker 2>stronger one of the two nights, and thank god it

270
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:39.879
<v Speaker 2>was because.

271
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:41.759
<v Speaker 4>Hold on, hold on, I forgot to ask you this

272
00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:46.639
<v Speaker 4>about the main event of night one. Sorry semi main,

273
00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:53.960
<v Speaker 4>I guess, uh Randy Orton. Yes, yes, there you go

274
00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:55.120
<v Speaker 4>that reaction on that.

275
00:14:56.840 --> 00:14:59.840
<v Speaker 2>It makes sense that Randy Orton will do that because

276
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:04.559
<v Speaker 2>Andy Orton has had a penchant for interrupting or at

277
00:15:04.639 --> 00:15:08.159
<v Speaker 2>least or or or at least uh, you know, making

278
00:15:08.200 --> 00:15:11.879
<v Speaker 2>his presence known before, during, and after main events at

279
00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:16.000
<v Speaker 2>SummerSlam in a very impactful way. And I'm glad that

280
00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:19.799
<v Speaker 2>he's back in the picture. And I and the weirdest

281
00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:23.559
<v Speaker 2>part is I never ever thought growing up, I never

282
00:15:23.600 --> 00:15:25.960
<v Speaker 2>ever thought I'd say that about Randy Orton. But in

283
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:28.639
<v Speaker 2>the last few years that he's been in like quote

284
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:30.840
<v Speaker 2>unquote the twilight of his career. But at the same time,

285
00:15:30.879 --> 00:15:34.720
<v Speaker 2>he's still a beast. He's still like he's still we're

286
00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:38.320
<v Speaker 2>gonna talk about yes, but he's still like he's he's

287
00:15:38.360 --> 00:15:42.679
<v Speaker 2>he's still he's probably he's probably a better Randy over

288
00:15:42.759 --> 00:15:45.399
<v Speaker 2>the past six five to six years.

289
00:15:45.399 --> 00:15:46.519
<v Speaker 3>Than he has ever been.

290
00:15:47.000 --> 00:15:52.039
<v Speaker 2>And I actually look forward to seeing Randy Orton and

291
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:53.879
<v Speaker 2>and it's not because he's in a twilet of his

292
00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:56.080
<v Speaker 2>career and we may not see much of him later on,

293
00:15:56.399 --> 00:15:57.840
<v Speaker 2>but he's.

294
00:15:57.519 --> 00:15:58.240
<v Speaker 3>Just better now.

295
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:00.480
<v Speaker 2>And I'm just like, this is this is crazy, Like

296
00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:05.159
<v Speaker 2>I actually want to see Randy orton wrestle Yeah.

297
00:16:05.240 --> 00:16:08.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, unlike the WrestleMania twenty five main event. But anyway,

298
00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:12.679
<v Speaker 4>well again I wanted that. Actually it just didn't It

299
00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:14.759
<v Speaker 4>didn't do much for me.

300
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:17.720
<v Speaker 3>See that's the let's see, that's the thing. See, that's

301
00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:19.000
<v Speaker 3>the thing. That's the thing that that.

302
00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:21.960
<v Speaker 2>That that that kind of that I guess Triple H

303
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:25.120
<v Speaker 2>has learned finally over the years that you don't necessarily

304
00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:28.080
<v Speaker 2>have to put the championship match at the very last

305
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.799
<v Speaker 2>moment of the card. You can have, you know, your

306
00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:36.000
<v Speaker 2>big moment, I mean sean attraction match.

307
00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:38.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, the attraction match. You can have it at the end.

308
00:16:38.720 --> 00:16:43.120
<v Speaker 2>Because if Triple H and Randy had gone on before

309
00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:45.960
<v Speaker 2>that and had their match and then the attraction match

310
00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:50.320
<v Speaker 2>of Sean versus the Undertaker one, I think that that

311
00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:55.759
<v Speaker 2>then I think the impact of Randy versus Triple H

312
00:16:55.879 --> 00:16:58.720
<v Speaker 2>would have been a lot better and and and people

313
00:16:58.759 --> 00:17:02.960
<v Speaker 2>would look for look fondly, more fondly rather on that

314
00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:04.200
<v Speaker 2>match than they do now.

315
00:17:04.559 --> 00:17:08.119
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So I guess my thought on it was that

316
00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:11.240
<v Speaker 4>I'm glad that they held off on bringing Randy back

317
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:14.440
<v Speaker 4>after Mania. I don't know if it was injured or anything,

318
00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:16.720
<v Speaker 4>but I think it was definitely good for WWE to

319
00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:21.519
<v Speaker 4>give it a few months to shed the stink of

320
00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:26.319
<v Speaker 4>the whole Pat McAfee Schuhorn into their feud and backlash

321
00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:29.279
<v Speaker 4>was just not backlash the pl but the backlash from

322
00:17:29.279 --> 00:17:36.599
<v Speaker 4>the fandom was just so kind of almost unanimously panning it. Yes,

323
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:40.799
<v Speaker 4>so to get the heat off of them, like it

324
00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:44.240
<v Speaker 4>was good that Randy just didn't show up until SummerSlam mmmmm.

325
00:17:44.839 --> 00:17:48.599
<v Speaker 2>And hey, you know absence did actually, oddly enough made

326
00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:51.839
<v Speaker 2>the heartbrow fonder for the viper. And that's just not

327
00:17:51.960 --> 00:17:55.000
<v Speaker 2>from me, but also the reaction of the Minnesota faithful

328
00:17:55.039 --> 00:17:58.440
<v Speaker 2>as well too. Yes, when seeing Randy Yorton return in

329
00:17:58.480 --> 00:18:02.559
<v Speaker 2>that main event there against and in that co main

330
00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:05.799
<v Speaker 2>event for lack of a better term there h So, yeah,

331
00:18:05.880 --> 00:18:10.000
<v Speaker 2>welcome back Randy and the complication of Randy Yorton is

332
00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:11.480
<v Speaker 2>going to be a lot of fun to see.

333
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:12.720
<v Speaker 3>And I never thought i'd say that.

334
00:18:14.079 --> 00:18:17.839
<v Speaker 2>Agreed Night two, Nick two, Well, we'll actually get into

<v Speaker 2>Slam answered, and we do have a six. We do

349
00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:27.079
<v Speaker 2>about here, and we're gonna start it off with the

350
00:19:27.079 --> 00:19:31.279
<v Speaker 2>first match. It was the number one contendership match for

351
00:19:31.400 --> 00:19:37.720
<v Speaker 2>the Undisputed WWE Championship, originally between Finnbaler and Sammy Zain

352
00:19:38.200 --> 00:19:42.880
<v Speaker 2>and then Gunther was also was also put into the

353
00:19:42.920 --> 00:19:48.319
<v Speaker 2>match after because you know, uh, this is I believe

354
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:50.640
<v Speaker 2>it was Nick All this trying to make things right

355
00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:54.519
<v Speaker 2>between him after after Nick All this was defeated by

356
00:19:54.519 --> 00:19:57.160
<v Speaker 2>Gunta the night before, and it was nice that Triple

357
00:19:57.319 --> 00:20:01.519
<v Speaker 2>H did not let Nick Alvis go and said, hey,

358
00:20:01.599 --> 00:20:05.400
<v Speaker 2>you know what, You're still the general manager. SmackDown Hurrah.

359
00:20:05.440 --> 00:20:07.200
<v Speaker 2>And you know it's good. I like nik All this

360
00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:09.640
<v Speaker 2>as the as the authority figure, and with the wrestling,

361
00:20:09.920 --> 00:20:12.559
<v Speaker 2>with with with with with with with him actually wrestling

362
00:20:12.599 --> 00:20:17.319
<v Speaker 2>and putting up a good show against Gunther, that just

363
00:20:17.359 --> 00:20:21.079
<v Speaker 2>makes it even more of a even more authoritative I

364
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:24.400
<v Speaker 2>would say. But the big surprise here. The first big

365
00:20:24.440 --> 00:20:28.359
<v Speaker 2>surprise of Night number two was the return of one

366
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:33.839
<v Speaker 2>prize fighter from Montreal, Quebec, Canada, Kevin Owens.

367
00:20:34.519 --> 00:20:35.200
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god.

368
00:20:35.359 --> 00:20:39.119
<v Speaker 2>I was actually watching this on my phone as I

369
00:20:39.160 --> 00:20:43.759
<v Speaker 2>was doing grocery shopping at Metro over in Scarborough. And

370
00:20:43.799 --> 00:20:45.759
<v Speaker 2>I heard his I heard his music while I was

371
00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:48.519
<v Speaker 2>trying to find while I was trying to find lentils

372
00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:52.480
<v Speaker 2>for my Lentil super recipe, and and I and I

373
00:20:52.720 --> 00:20:55.680
<v Speaker 2>was like, my jaw dropped. I had a big smile

374
00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:57.720
<v Speaker 2>on my face and I see Kevin and I hear

375
00:20:57.799 --> 00:21:00.839
<v Speaker 2>the music and I started I actually teared up in Metro.

376
00:21:01.599 --> 00:21:02.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean he was gone.

377
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:07.839
<v Speaker 4>For I believe it was seventeen months, so that is

378
00:21:07.880 --> 00:21:10.319
<v Speaker 4>a very long layoff. And he was talking about it

379
00:21:10.319 --> 00:21:14.279
<v Speaker 4>on the post show after Summer Slam Night two, how

380
00:21:14.359 --> 00:21:18.559
<v Speaker 4>they weren't even sure he could come back, and even

381
00:21:19.240 --> 00:21:23.319
<v Speaker 4>to that point he was told not to take many chances.

382
00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:26.839
<v Speaker 4>And then but he promised the WWE universe during the

383
00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:30.440
<v Speaker 4>post show that he's like, he's just kind of throwing

384
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:31.359
<v Speaker 4>that advice away.

385
00:21:31.480 --> 00:21:31.680
<v Speaker 3>Now.

386
00:21:31.720 --> 00:21:34.519
<v Speaker 4>I hope he only meant that in k fabe, and

387
00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:38.200
<v Speaker 4>I hope he will legitimately take care of how he

388
00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:39.480
<v Speaker 4>wrestles from here on out.

389
00:21:40.559 --> 00:21:44.200
<v Speaker 2>And I'm sure he will, honestly, because I mean, it

390
00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:49.480
<v Speaker 2>is something that you know, several people have come back

391
00:21:49.480 --> 00:21:54.680
<v Speaker 2>from concluding page, including Adam Copeland, who have had longer

392
00:21:54.759 --> 00:21:58.160
<v Speaker 2>layoffs than Kevin Owens. Yes, but all of them had

393
00:21:58.640 --> 00:22:03.039
<v Speaker 2>that uncertain he and even was told don't do this anymore.

394
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:07.920
<v Speaker 2>But Kevin Owens, Uh, he was just he was told

395
00:22:08.000 --> 00:22:09.440
<v Speaker 2>he gotta take it easy, so.

396
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:11.640
<v Speaker 3>But he won't.

397
00:22:12.039 --> 00:22:16.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and again, let's hope in k fab he that

398
00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:19.160
<v Speaker 2>he met that in k fabe and uh, he actually

399
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:21.319
<v Speaker 2>does take care of himself. But it was nice to

400
00:22:21.319 --> 00:22:23.799
<v Speaker 2>see that he won the match and he is now

401
00:22:24.039 --> 00:22:27.400
<v Speaker 2>the number one contender too for the undisputed w W

402
00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:32.519
<v Speaker 2>Championship held currently by Roman Reigns. Spoiler lords uh and

403
00:22:32.759 --> 00:22:37.480
<v Speaker 2>uh and up and uh it's again Finn Balor pushed

404
00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:40.039
<v Speaker 2>off the side, Sammy's ain pushed off the side, and

405
00:22:40.119 --> 00:22:42.799
<v Speaker 2>Gunther not getting the title shot that he wants again.

406
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:47.480
<v Speaker 2>So but uh that also could fuel a lot of

407
00:22:47.519 --> 00:22:49.720
<v Speaker 2>good things for all three of those guys.

408
00:22:51.039 --> 00:22:53.599
<v Speaker 3>Oh yes, oh yes, what else we got here?

409
00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:57.240
<v Speaker 2>Man Baron Corbin, I was, I was actually kind of

410
00:22:57.920 --> 00:23:00.400
<v Speaker 2>very Corbin defeating Trick Williams.

411
00:23:00.759 --> 00:23:04.279
<v Speaker 3>For a surprise, very surprised for not too bad.

412
00:23:04.680 --> 00:23:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and he is now the new WWE United States Champion.

413
00:23:08.720 --> 00:23:11.559
<v Speaker 4>Oh, I thought it was the Tom Toon World Championship.

414
00:23:11.880 --> 00:23:15.480
<v Speaker 4>Oh either smelling there?

415
00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:20.599
<v Speaker 2>Uh huh either way, either way I was either I

416
00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:24.119
<v Speaker 2>was okay with this and I think Baron Corbyn. I

417
00:23:24.160 --> 00:23:27.039
<v Speaker 2>was actually entertained by Baron Corbyn. Not Bishop Dyer, but

418
00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Baron Corbyn.

419
00:23:28.640 --> 00:23:28.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

420
00:23:28.839 --> 00:23:31.480
<v Speaker 4>I don't know who you're talking about, but yeah, Baron

421
00:23:31.559 --> 00:23:34.480
<v Speaker 4>Corbyn is indeed back in WWE. And yeah, I think

422
00:23:34.960 --> 00:23:37.359
<v Speaker 4>absence made the heart grow a little bit fonder. I

423
00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:42.119
<v Speaker 4>actually think the real man behind the persona Tom pest stocks.

424
00:23:42.160 --> 00:23:44.839
<v Speaker 4>Seems like a good dude, you know, to chill with

425
00:23:44.880 --> 00:23:47.079
<v Speaker 4>and hang out with. And it's pretty cool watching his

426
00:23:47.240 --> 00:23:51.279
<v Speaker 4>like cooking videos on social media and how he like

427
00:23:52.000 --> 00:23:55.279
<v Speaker 4>is I don't know if it's converser level, but he

428
00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:59.039
<v Speaker 4>kind of specializes in like grilling, grilling meats and stuff

429
00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:02.279
<v Speaker 4>or something like that. So he just seems seems like

430
00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:04.680
<v Speaker 4>a good person to hang out with. And so I

431
00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:08.160
<v Speaker 4>have more goodwill towards Baron Corbin now than in the

432
00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:11.720
<v Speaker 4>previous run, as has been documented on this very show.

433
00:24:13.039 --> 00:24:16.519
<v Speaker 4>You know, i'd call him boring, carbomb or whatever something

434
00:24:16.880 --> 00:24:21.279
<v Speaker 4>something that it's just because he was so bland to me,

435
00:24:21.440 --> 00:24:23.559
<v Speaker 4>and he kind of still is, to be honest with you,

436
00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:27.960
<v Speaker 4>but there's just something a little different, and it just

437
00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:30.440
<v Speaker 4>feels a little different, like a little fresh coat of paint.

438
00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:33.000
<v Speaker 3>So I wish him well.

439
00:24:33.160 --> 00:24:36.960
<v Speaker 4>I hope he, you know, is there for quite a while,

440
00:24:37.319 --> 00:24:41.400
<v Speaker 4>but only if he's like that dang good, yeah, because

441
00:24:41.400 --> 00:24:43.079
<v Speaker 4>he's got to hit it out of the park otherwise,

442
00:24:43.119 --> 00:24:44.519
<v Speaker 4>I mean, what are we doing here?

443
00:24:44.759 --> 00:24:47.160
<v Speaker 3>So he's speaking of somebody who hit it out of

444
00:24:47.200 --> 00:24:47.519
<v Speaker 3>the park.

445
00:24:47.559 --> 00:24:54.079
<v Speaker 2>Though, Five ladies who competed for the interim w Women's championship.

446
00:24:54.079 --> 00:24:58.079
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, Charlotte Flair, Jade Cargill, Lash Legend, and Tiffany

447
00:24:58.160 --> 00:25:03.400
<v Speaker 2>Stratton had you give it up and acknowledge the new

448
00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:06.519
<v Speaker 2>interim WWE Women's champion.

449
00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:08.400
<v Speaker 3>Chelsea Green.

450
00:25:09.680 --> 00:25:12.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh, like I played allegiance, Yes I do,

451
00:25:13.079 --> 00:25:17.279
<v Speaker 2>I I as well, I as well the lady from Victoria, BC.

452
00:25:17.759 --> 00:25:20.039
<v Speaker 2>Unfortunately she can't have a lot of her family and

453
00:25:20.079 --> 00:25:23.039
<v Speaker 2>friends there. But at least at least Zach was there

454
00:25:23.400 --> 00:25:28.160
<v Speaker 2>or or you know his real name? Yeah no, Matt

455
00:25:28.200 --> 00:25:31.119
<v Speaker 2>Cardona is his persona on TV now man. Yes, I know,

456
00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:32.240
<v Speaker 2>I know, I know.

457
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:35.799
<v Speaker 4>He's it's you get did you get zap by by

458
00:25:35.880 --> 00:25:37.160
<v Speaker 4>Dan Housen's equipment again?

459
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:38.519
<v Speaker 3>I guess so, I guess.

460
00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:42.720
<v Speaker 2>I guess so, I mean, like, you know, that's I mean,

461
00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:44.240
<v Speaker 2>my Gigantic had absorbed it.

462
00:25:44.319 --> 00:25:47.640
<v Speaker 4>Also, Oh, I guess so that's why things are going

463
00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:48.559
<v Speaker 4>off the rails yet again.

464
00:25:49.480 --> 00:25:49.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

465
00:25:50.079 --> 00:25:54.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, congratulations to Chelsea Green. I will say that's

466
00:25:54.519 --> 00:25:57.839
<v Speaker 4>the right decision. And I do get a sinking feeling though,

467
00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:00.720
<v Speaker 4>because I mean, they gave Chelsea Green the world a

468
00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:04.720
<v Speaker 4>world championship, but it's an interim one, you know, so

469
00:26:04.799 --> 00:26:07.000
<v Speaker 4>I kind of feel like it's almost consolation. But she

470
00:26:07.079 --> 00:26:13.200
<v Speaker 4>still is technically a w w EE Women's champion here too. Fourth, Yes, exactly.

471
00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:15.640
<v Speaker 2>And it's and and and and it's uh, we don't

472
00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:18.880
<v Speaker 2>know how long. We don't we don't know how long

473
00:26:18.960 --> 00:26:22.680
<v Speaker 2>the interim is going to last. Basically, we don't know what.

474
00:26:23.000 --> 00:26:26.519
<v Speaker 2>But either way, it is still she's still gonna be

475
00:26:26.599 --> 00:26:29.559
<v Speaker 2>going around the country. She's still going to be going

476
00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:33.440
<v Speaker 2>around to shows with that title. And uh and and

477
00:26:33.480 --> 00:26:34.680
<v Speaker 2>I and I think she's.

478
00:26:34.680 --> 00:26:35.640
<v Speaker 3>On an interim basis.

479
00:26:35.640 --> 00:26:39.039
<v Speaker 2>I guess, yes, exactly, but still but still but but

480
00:26:39.039 --> 00:26:41.519
<v Speaker 2>but but but but it's still to me. Then again,

481
00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:47.039
<v Speaker 2>it's wrestling every every time. Yeah, nothing really matters title wise.

482
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:52.519
<v Speaker 2>So yes, Chelsea is a champion of the world. Yes,

483
00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:54.880
<v Speaker 2>But at the same time, I'm also eating my words

484
00:26:54.880 --> 00:26:57.160
<v Speaker 2>here a little bit too. I'm also eating I also

485
00:26:57.200 --> 00:26:58.640
<v Speaker 2>have to eat a little bit of my own crow

486
00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:00.960
<v Speaker 2>because of the fact that I did not like the

487
00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:03.920
<v Speaker 2>way they did the interim ae W championship, and I

488
00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:06.720
<v Speaker 2>didn't like not big not. It was not that it

489
00:27:06.799 --> 00:27:09.400
<v Speaker 2>wasn't the right of a good move or bad move

490
00:27:09.480 --> 00:27:11.440
<v Speaker 2>per se. It's just that I did not like the

491
00:27:11.519 --> 00:27:16.039
<v Speaker 2>idea of an interim champion for a world Championship, particularly

492
00:27:16.039 --> 00:27:17.920
<v Speaker 2>in AW and I just didn't like the way that

493
00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:21.799
<v Speaker 2>it worked. But then for whatever reason, I'm actually kind

494
00:27:21.799 --> 00:27:24.599
<v Speaker 2>of maybe it's the maybe it is the aew thing

495
00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:26.920
<v Speaker 2>that kind of warmed me up to the idea of

496
00:27:26.960 --> 00:27:27.960
<v Speaker 2>an interim champion.

497
00:27:29.279 --> 00:27:32.039
<v Speaker 4>I'm, for one, I'm glad that WWE has held off

498
00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:36.920
<v Speaker 4>on doing an interim championship until now. I think this

499
00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:42.279
<v Speaker 4>might be the first time they've ever done it in WWE.

500
00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:45.000
<v Speaker 4>But I'm okay with them pulling the trigger here because

501
00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:49.759
<v Speaker 4>they have so many championships that every time somebody gets injured,

502
00:27:49.759 --> 00:27:52.519
<v Speaker 4>while you're just gonna make a vacant, a tournament will

503
00:27:52.559 --> 00:27:53.160
<v Speaker 4>just pop.

504
00:27:53.039 --> 00:27:55.960
<v Speaker 3>Up or a Battle Royal. It gets old after a while.

505
00:27:56.480 --> 00:27:59.319
<v Speaker 4>So I'm glad that they're they're finally making it a

506
00:27:59.400 --> 00:28:04.000
<v Speaker 4>little more satyle with that kind of situation, because many

507
00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:05.759
<v Speaker 4>of their champions have gone down in the last like

508
00:28:05.880 --> 00:28:09.640
<v Speaker 4>half decades. So this is a good way to kind

509
00:28:09.640 --> 00:28:15.319
<v Speaker 4>of still acknowledge that Riha Ripley is the best and

510
00:28:15.319 --> 00:28:20.160
<v Speaker 4>and and the the champ. But she just has to

511
00:28:20.200 --> 00:28:24.160
<v Speaker 4>take a little bit longer then than they wanted to

512
00:28:24.160 --> 00:28:26.880
<v Speaker 4>to rehab. So what do you do for the first

513
00:28:26.920 --> 00:28:31.319
<v Speaker 4>time ever interim WWE Women's Champion, and so it's gonna

514
00:28:31.319 --> 00:28:33.480
<v Speaker 4>be I'm gonna make for a fun story when Ria

515
00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:37.000
<v Speaker 4>comes back and wrestles whomever that interim Women's champion is

516
00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:37.440
<v Speaker 4>by then.

517
00:28:37.799 --> 00:28:40.000
<v Speaker 3>And I would love to see I would have to.

518
00:28:40.119 --> 00:28:43.359
<v Speaker 2>I would love to see the the the the Women's

519
00:28:43.440 --> 00:28:48.160
<v Speaker 2>Championship being contested by Rihea Ripley and Chelsea Green particularly,

520
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:49.880
<v Speaker 2>I would love to see that match up. I would

521
00:28:49.880 --> 00:28:52.319
<v Speaker 2>love to see how that, how the build up happens

522
00:28:52.319 --> 00:28:53.720
<v Speaker 2>to that. I think that would be I think that

523
00:28:53.720 --> 00:28:55.000
<v Speaker 2>would be an awesome thing for both of.

524
00:28:55.000 --> 00:28:56.319
<v Speaker 3>Them if they do that.

525
00:28:56.640 --> 00:28:59.759
<v Speaker 4>I hope that they finally turned Chelsea loose to show

526
00:28:59.759 --> 00:29:05.640
<v Speaker 4>which he can do, because she can actually go. She

527
00:29:06.160 --> 00:29:08.960
<v Speaker 4>may have a goofy character that is there for a

528
00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:13.519
<v Speaker 4>certain purpose, but I mean a lot of people don't

529
00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:17.960
<v Speaker 4>know that, you know this, this lady can really do

530
00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:21.599
<v Speaker 4>the pro wrestling thing, even the physical stuff. So like

531
00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:25.079
<v Speaker 4>she's had a match against Penta in Luca Underground that

532
00:29:25.640 --> 00:29:29.920
<v Speaker 4>is legendary and so that that has gone around, it

533
00:29:30.039 --> 00:29:32.720
<v Speaker 4>becomes sort of a vile viral clip here and there.

534
00:29:33.480 --> 00:29:38.640
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, no, I wouldn't mind seeing Chelsea and Rhea

535
00:29:38.759 --> 00:29:41.039
<v Speaker 4>be the ones to wrestle when Riha comes back for

536
00:29:41.079 --> 00:29:46.039
<v Speaker 4>the undisputed WWE Women's champion Ship. So I wouldn't mind

537
00:29:46.079 --> 00:29:49.319
<v Speaker 4>if it's that pairing. I just hope it wouldn't be

538
00:29:49.319 --> 00:29:51.400
<v Speaker 4>a squash like I hope it's a real contest.

539
00:29:51.680 --> 00:29:52.559
<v Speaker 3>Mm hmmmmmm.

540
00:29:53.160 --> 00:29:57.359
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, you know somebody who would probably now

541
00:29:57.920 --> 00:30:02.240
<v Speaker 2>figure out that maybe Chelsea can actually go the man

542
00:30:02.279 --> 00:30:05.279
<v Speaker 2>that she dedicated the title to, you, Michael ps Hays.

543
00:30:05.960 --> 00:30:11.079
<v Speaker 4>Oh, that was a fantastic post show U answer or

544
00:30:11.240 --> 00:30:15.440
<v Speaker 4>you know, dedication rather dedication. So Chelsea just looked right

545
00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:19.160
<v Speaker 4>into the camera and dedicated that interim ww Championship win

546
00:30:20.119 --> 00:30:21.279
<v Speaker 4>to Michael Hayes.

547
00:30:21.599 --> 00:30:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Ah. Human Money's in a poll match that was the

548
00:30:25.240 --> 00:30:28.119
<v Speaker 2>next match cup towards. It's six minutes and fifty seconds,

549
00:30:28.119 --> 00:30:30.119
<v Speaker 2>and that's all it needed to be Dan Housen defeating

550
00:30:30.119 --> 00:30:34.359
<v Speaker 2>Dominicasterio keeping the one hundred thousand dollars that Dan Housen

551
00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:37.279
<v Speaker 2>quote unquote stole from the judgment day. But it turns

552
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:39.359
<v Speaker 2>out the human Money's on a pole match were actually

553
00:30:39.440 --> 00:30:41.279
<v Speaker 2>Dan housend dollars. Yeah.

554
00:30:41.359 --> 00:30:43.319
<v Speaker 4>I saw it when when he started throwing it around

555
00:30:43.400 --> 00:30:47.640
<v Speaker 4>him like no, no way, no way, they're actually throwing

556
00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:50.680
<v Speaker 4>out real cash when this whole time I knew that

557
00:30:51.240 --> 00:30:54.640
<v Speaker 4>WWE is selling quote I'm using air quotes here for

558
00:30:55.079 --> 00:31:00.440
<v Speaker 4>those in radio end, but it was actually uh human

559
00:31:00.640 --> 00:31:02.839
<v Speaker 4>the human monies that we that were in that bag,

560
00:31:03.640 --> 00:31:05.839
<v Speaker 4>So the one the ones that they sell replicas of

561
00:31:05.920 --> 00:31:07.079
<v Speaker 4>on WWE shop.

562
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:11.720
<v Speaker 3>So yep, you know, and very nice, very very evil. Yes.

563
00:31:12.119 --> 00:31:12.279
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

564
00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:16.079
<v Speaker 2>And you mentioned Penta earlier having that great match against

565
00:31:16.119 --> 00:31:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Chelsea Green, Well, Uh, Chad Gable and Penta had a

566
00:31:19.400 --> 00:31:22.920
<v Speaker 2>great match themselves for the inter Continental Championship eleven minutes

567
00:31:22.920 --> 00:31:27.480
<v Speaker 2>and ten seconds. Chad Gable, Uh, to the delight of

568
00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:31.079
<v Speaker 2>the Minnesota crowd. Uh, is now the w w E

569
00:31:31.519 --> 00:31:35.000
<v Speaker 2>Intercontinental Champion, first, the first.

570
00:31:34.519 --> 00:31:36.200
<v Speaker 3>Singles title for Chad Gable.

571
00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:40.440
<v Speaker 2>Lad Gable and and on Monday Night Raw, there was

572
00:31:40.440 --> 00:31:43.640
<v Speaker 2>a promo where pent till We're bent to basically put

573
00:31:43.720 --> 00:31:47.599
<v Speaker 2>Chad over and saying that he he's now one of

574
00:31:47.720 --> 00:31:51.119
<v Speaker 2>he's you know, one of the best wrestlers in the world,

575
00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:55.599
<v Speaker 2>and he deserves this Intercontinental Championship and he respects Chad

576
00:31:55.640 --> 00:32:00.279
<v Speaker 2>Gable and uh and uh and it's great. It's it's

577
00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:04.200
<v Speaker 2>great to see how much goodwill Chad Gable has.

578
00:32:04.079 --> 00:32:06.799
<v Speaker 3>Not just in KFE. But but just.

579
00:32:06.960 --> 00:32:12.400
<v Speaker 2>Shoot goodwill from everybody in the wrestling world right now.

580
00:32:12.920 --> 00:32:16.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's it's really cool to see and he's had

581
00:32:16.960 --> 00:32:18.960
<v Speaker 4>a long road there, as we all know, like those

582
00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:22.920
<v Speaker 4>of us who followed his career, but it's about danyg time.

583
00:32:23.200 --> 00:32:26.720
<v Speaker 4>And there was no choice but to turn Chad Gable

584
00:32:27.240 --> 00:32:33.599
<v Speaker 4>babyface once he was unmasked as the original El Grande Americano, Like,

585
00:32:33.640 --> 00:32:36.720
<v Speaker 4>there's no choice but to put him as a baby

586
00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:41.039
<v Speaker 4>face because then there was so much gratitude in sportsmanship

587
00:32:41.039 --> 00:32:44.160
<v Speaker 4>from Chad after that mask versus mask match that he

588
00:32:44.279 --> 00:32:48.599
<v Speaker 4>really earned, like he got a huge level up in

589
00:32:48.680 --> 00:32:52.440
<v Speaker 4>respect from the crowd and just from everyone viewing it.

590
00:32:52.519 --> 00:32:56.640
<v Speaker 4>So there definitely was no choice but to turn Chad face.

591
00:32:57.200 --> 00:32:59.759
<v Speaker 4>And I love this apology tour he's been on and

592
00:32:59.799 --> 00:33:01.839
<v Speaker 4>I love that we got to see it culminate in

593
00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:06.319
<v Speaker 4>his first ever WWE singles title win. So congrats to

594
00:33:06.839 --> 00:33:11.599

<v Speaker 2>like about something like that, something like that. Uh, but uh,

603
00:33:42.720 --> 00:33:46.039
<v Speaker 2>and it and it goes beyond of course their shield days.

604
00:33:46.119 --> 00:33:47.799
<v Speaker 2>I mean, like, you know, they had to go up

605
00:33:47.799 --> 00:33:51.599
<v Speaker 2>into developmental as well, so they've been through it all

606
00:33:51.640 --> 00:33:56.480
<v Speaker 2>of these two and it really showed how well they

607
00:33:56.559 --> 00:33:59.039
<v Speaker 2>work together and how just you know, how how well

608
00:33:59.079 --> 00:34:01.960
<v Speaker 2>they just drive in the ring. Because that was a

609
00:34:02.039 --> 00:34:03.680
<v Speaker 2>phenomenal match.

610
00:34:03.440 --> 00:34:04.200
<v Speaker 3>Between these two.

611
00:34:04.880 --> 00:34:08.840
<v Speaker 4>Agreed, It was an instant classic for sure. Those two

612
00:34:08.920 --> 00:34:13.320
<v Speaker 4>deserved to have a great show closing, you know, main

613
00:34:13.360 --> 00:34:16.199
<v Speaker 4>event match like that, so kudos to both of them.

614
00:34:16.280 --> 00:34:20.119
<v Speaker 4>The right outcome came and even the right post match

615
00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:27.119
<v Speaker 4>sportsmanship kind of thing happened as well, so kudos all around.

616
00:34:27.360 --> 00:34:31.920
<v Speaker 4>It went up and down and was a dramatic bit

617
00:34:31.960 --> 00:34:33.039
<v Speaker 4>of sports entertainment.

618
00:34:33.119 --> 00:34:35.559
<v Speaker 3>So I enjoyed that to close the night.

619
00:34:36.199 --> 00:34:38.039
<v Speaker 4>I have to admit though, for the first half or

620
00:34:38.039 --> 00:34:40.760
<v Speaker 4>so of the match, I kind of had this kind

621
00:34:40.760 --> 00:34:43.679
<v Speaker 4>of bland feeling about it, like I don't want to

622
00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:47.199
<v Speaker 4>watch rains and Rawlins because it just seemed a little

623
00:34:47.239 --> 00:34:50.119
<v Speaker 4>old hat to me in that moment. But that match

624
00:34:50.159 --> 00:34:52.360
<v Speaker 4>as it went on, I'm like, okay, they're really putting

625
00:34:52.360 --> 00:34:55.760
<v Speaker 4>some sauce on this, Like it was very very good,

626
00:34:56.079 --> 00:34:58.480
<v Speaker 4>like a lot of well thought out story beats during

627
00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:03.199
<v Speaker 4>the match. So I acknowledge the tribal chiefs mm.

628
00:35:03.159 --> 00:35:06.079
<v Speaker 2>Hm, and you know, and and and there's the thing too,

629
00:35:06.159 --> 00:35:10.559
<v Speaker 2>is that it's is that that even though Seth Rollins

630
00:35:10.599 --> 00:35:14.400
<v Speaker 2>again did not win the championship and he's basically you know,

631
00:35:14.719 --> 00:35:17.840
<v Speaker 2>basically everything that Romans said came true. I guess in

632
00:35:17.880 --> 00:35:21.119
<v Speaker 2>a sense, uh uh, that everything that he said in

633
00:35:21.199 --> 00:35:23.519
<v Speaker 2>the lead up to this matchup kind of came true.

634
00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:27.679
<v Speaker 2>Seth does not look the does not look like the

635
00:35:27.719 --> 00:35:32.159
<v Speaker 2>weaker one. Neither of them lost anything from this match.

636
00:35:32.199 --> 00:35:36.199
<v Speaker 2>In fact, I think they both somehow gained even more

637
00:35:36.760 --> 00:35:39.880
<v Speaker 2>from this match. And that's tough to do when your

638
00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:42.199
<v Speaker 2>Roman reigns and you've been at the top for so

639
00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:46.840
<v Speaker 2>long and you know you're and doesn't matter if you are,

640
00:35:46.960 --> 00:35:50.280
<v Speaker 2>if if he's heel or his face that music hits

641
00:35:51.039 --> 00:35:55.639
<v Speaker 2>that that music, everybody just stands up and acknowledges him.

642
00:35:57.039 --> 00:35:58.000
<v Speaker 3>He's It's just.

643
00:35:58.679 --> 00:36:03.159
<v Speaker 2>He made himself undeniable, and Seth Wallins also found away

644
00:36:03.280 --> 00:36:06.519
<v Speaker 2>somehow to make himself undeniable as well over the past

645
00:36:06.599 --> 00:36:07.440
<v Speaker 2>couple of years.

646
00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:08.760
<v Speaker 3>Yep, yep.

647
00:36:08.840 --> 00:36:11.719
<v Speaker 4>And so I mean, I don't know what that says

648
00:36:11.760 --> 00:36:13.880
<v Speaker 4>for where Seth Rollins is going to go from here.

649
00:36:14.480 --> 00:36:16.840
<v Speaker 4>Of course, tribal chief will just do tribal chief things,

650
00:36:17.039 --> 00:36:18.760
<v Speaker 4>so he will soldier on.

651
00:36:18.880 --> 00:36:21.559
<v Speaker 3>And of course he is right in.

652
00:36:21.480 --> 00:36:25.800
<v Speaker 4>The middle of the Renaissance, I guess of the bloodline.

653
00:36:25.840 --> 00:36:28.440
<v Speaker 4>So you know, I don't know where that's going either,

654
00:36:28.480 --> 00:36:30.760
<v Speaker 4>But Roman's got plenty of stuff to do to occupy

655
00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:36.039
<v Speaker 4>his mondays. So let's see where it goes from here.

656
00:36:36.119 --> 00:36:39.000
<v Speaker 4>I'm I'm really not sure where to go from here

657
00:36:39.000 --> 00:36:39.920
<v Speaker 4>with Seth though.

658
00:36:40.079 --> 00:36:43.679
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmm. That's something I think we'll have an answer

659
00:36:43.719 --> 00:36:45.960
<v Speaker 2>to you in the next few weeks. Because of course,

660
00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:48.719
<v Speaker 2>the w W machine never stops.

661
00:36:49.519 --> 00:36:51.480
<v Speaker 3>They don't have an off season. They don't have an

662
00:36:51.480 --> 00:36:52.000
<v Speaker 3>off season.

663
00:36:52.000 --> 00:36:54.800
<v Speaker 2>They have and and and it's very very easy to

664
00:36:55.400 --> 00:36:58.800
<v Speaker 2>unders to to look back and say, you know what,

665
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:02.639
<v Speaker 2>these guys have actually had this much history. This is

666
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:05.239
<v Speaker 2>a match fifteen years of the making, twenty years of

667
00:37:05.280 --> 00:37:07.840
<v Speaker 2>the making, and all that sort of stuff. Because because

668
00:37:07.840 --> 00:37:10.440
<v Speaker 2>of the fact that like you know, WWE, as they

669
00:37:10.480 --> 00:37:11.480
<v Speaker 2>used to say, has.

670
00:37:11.320 --> 00:37:12.039
<v Speaker 3>No off season.

671
00:37:12.480 --> 00:37:14.639
<v Speaker 2>But I also want to do talk about in the

672
00:37:14.719 --> 00:37:17.159
<v Speaker 2>last half or in the last block of the show,

673
00:37:17.840 --> 00:37:22.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, a new a new season of professional wrestling,

674
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:26.519
<v Speaker 2>and particularly here here in southern Ontario, here in Toronto

675
00:37:26.760 --> 00:37:30.199
<v Speaker 2>Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling. Over the last few weeks, since July,

676
00:37:30.679 --> 00:37:36.719
<v Speaker 2>they've had they have a TV deal with TSN and

677
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:42.320

681
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:55.320
<v Speaker 2>about in a second. But I do want to talk

682
00:37:55.320 --> 00:38:00.480
<v Speaker 2>about this tonight's show as of this airing night's show

683

00:39:26.639 --> 00:39:30.239
<v Speaker 2>he might be making a comeback here on Ringside Heat

705
00:39:30.320 --> 00:39:32.519
<v Speaker 2>sometime in the near future, so stay tuned for that.

706
00:39:33.320 --> 00:39:39.440
<v Speaker 2>But some to us speaking of comebacks mayple Leaf Pro Wrestling,

707
00:39:40.440 --> 00:39:46.400
<v Speaker 2>the old the successor to Maple Leaf Wrestling that the

708
00:39:46.480 --> 00:39:50.559
<v Speaker 2>Tunnies used to run that was started basically in the

709
00:39:50.679 --> 00:39:55.360
<v Speaker 2>minds of the Tunnies and the Gardener family and Toots

710
00:39:55.480 --> 00:39:59.239
<v Speaker 2>Monde back in the nineteen twenties. It's the Queensburry Athletic

711
00:39:59.320 --> 00:40:03.599
<v Speaker 2>Club and one of the precursors to what WWE is

712
00:40:03.639 --> 00:40:08.360
<v Speaker 2>today because Toutsman was involved with MLP or so with

713
00:40:08.360 --> 00:40:10.800
<v Speaker 2>with with with MLW all the way back of the

714
00:40:10.880 --> 00:40:15.599
<v Speaker 2>day and and and eventually started working with Vince McMahon Sr.

715
00:40:15.800 --> 00:40:18.079
<v Speaker 2>And they broke off from the n w A, creating

716
00:40:18.119 --> 00:40:19.440
<v Speaker 2>the World Wrestling Federation.

717
00:40:20.039 --> 00:40:20.519
<v Speaker 3>Uh and.

<v Speaker 2>there's a couple of segments I do want to talk

723
00:40:39.400 --> 00:40:44.880
<v Speaker 2>about over here. First off, Adam Copeland, hometown boy, Adam Copeland,

729
00:41:01.280 --> 00:41:05.639
<v Speaker 2>back and give back to the professional wrestling industry here

730
00:41:05.679 --> 00:41:06.159
<v Speaker 2>in Canada.

00:41:24.599 --> 00:41:27.079
<v Speaker 2>it is. It is going to be taking up three

737
00:41:27.199 --> 00:41:31.599
<v Speaker 2>quarters of the arena and the and and the views

738
00:41:31.920 --> 00:41:34.760

739
00:41:34.760 --> 00:41:37.800

741
00:41:40.440 --> 00:41:45.360

<v Speaker 2>right now. And uh, hopefully we'll be able to do

824
00:45:39.519 --> 00:45:41.519
<v Speaker 2>a show for next week. I know it, we'll be uh,

825
00:45:41.599 --> 00:45:45.400
<v Speaker 2>we'll be going out of town, so and out of

826
00:45:45.440 --> 00:45:47.079
<v Speaker 2>town a little bit of a kind of like a

827
00:45:47.119 --> 00:45:50.599
<v Speaker 2>work vak uh but uh. But at the same time,

828
00:45:51.239 --> 00:45:53.920
<v Speaker 2>hopefully we'll have some time next week to do uh,

829
00:45:54.039 --> 00:45:56.760
<v Speaker 2>to talk a little bit more and uh uh tee

830
00:45:56.840 --> 00:45:58.719
<v Speaker 2>up a little bit more about the things that are

831
00:45:58.760 --> 00:46:01.320
<v Speaker 2>be coming up in the next month of professional wrestling.

832
00:46:01.679 --> 00:46:05.760
<v Speaker 2>And but for now, Summer Slam. What is your grade

833
00:46:06.440 --> 00:46:09.960
<v Speaker 2>I do, let's say, out of ten out of ten, you.

834
00:46:09.920 --> 00:46:10.480
<v Speaker 3>Out of ten.

835
00:46:10.880 --> 00:46:15.639
<v Speaker 4>I think I feel comfortable with an eight. I think

836
00:46:15.679 --> 00:46:18.880
<v Speaker 4>that's pretty good. I think if I felt if I

837
00:46:19.039 --> 00:46:23.480
<v Speaker 4>felt more hyped about it afterwards, i'd go nine or above.

838
00:46:23.559 --> 00:46:25.480
<v Speaker 4>But I think it's a it's a pretty good eight.

839
00:46:26.320 --> 00:46:29.239
<v Speaker 4>So my writing over here will be a seven point five. Actually,

840
00:46:29.679 --> 00:46:32.480
<v Speaker 4>because I gave Night number one a seven, I gave

841
00:46:32.639 --> 00:46:35.440
<v Speaker 4>Night number two and eight, So aggregate between the two

842
00:46:35.440 --> 00:46:37.039
<v Speaker 4>of us, or to find the mean between the two

843
00:46:37.039 --> 00:46:39.719
<v Speaker 4>of those at seven point five. But unlike you, I'm

844
00:46:39.760 --> 00:46:41.840
<v Speaker 4>actually a little bit I'm actually a little bit more

845
00:46:43.440 --> 00:46:46.440
<v Speaker 4>hyped up about what's going to be happening afterwards after

846
00:46:46.440 --> 00:46:49.199
<v Speaker 4>this Summer Slam, the fall of the Summer Slam, especially

847
00:46:49.320 --> 00:46:54.760
<v Speaker 4>since especially since La Night first of all, has he

848
00:46:55.039 --> 00:47:00.039
<v Speaker 4>continues to have some great reactions from the crowd, and

849
00:47:00.079 --> 00:47:02.079
<v Speaker 4>he's and and I and I think it's gonna be

850
00:47:02.119 --> 00:47:04.079
<v Speaker 4>a lot of fun to see where La Night goes

851
00:47:04.079 --> 00:47:07.679
<v Speaker 4>with that Chelsea Green. I can't wait to see what

852
00:47:07.719 --> 00:47:10.679
<v Speaker 4>she does with that women's championship. Uh, that Integram Women's

853
00:47:10.719 --> 00:47:15.159
<v Speaker 4>Championship rather Uh. Dan Housen of course, always gonna always

854
00:47:15.199 --> 00:47:17.960
<v Speaker 4>gonna put a smile on my face. So yeah, so entertaining,

855
00:47:18.000 --> 00:47:21.719
<v Speaker 4>and to me hasn't hasn't grown old to me yet,

856
00:47:21.920 --> 00:47:24.239
<v Speaker 4>So I'm still very amused by Dan Housen.

857
00:47:24.559 --> 00:47:25.079
<v Speaker 3>Mmmmm.

858
00:47:25.960 --> 00:47:30.840
<v Speaker 2>And uh and and the uh, the the the current

859
00:47:31.400 --> 00:47:36.400
<v Speaker 2>developments with the Bloodline story as well. Uh, somehow, somehow

860
00:47:36.519 --> 00:47:41.239
<v Speaker 2>it still hits. It's been six years and the Bloodline

861
00:47:41.280 --> 00:47:44.239
<v Speaker 2>story is still hot topic.

862
00:47:44.679 --> 00:47:51.239
<v Speaker 4>And uh, you cannot outright dismiss the.

863
00:47:49.639 --> 00:47:53.039
<v Speaker 3>The new next big thing lurking around the corner. Mm hmmm.

864
00:47:53.480 --> 00:47:58.119
<v Speaker 4>Obafemi's a threat to any championship right now, exactly exactly him.

865
00:47:58.239 --> 00:48:01.920
<v Speaker 2>He he literally could squash Punk maybe in a couple

866
00:48:01.960 --> 00:48:05.039
<v Speaker 2>of weeks. Who knows, We don't know. Only Chipple h

867
00:48:05.039 --> 00:48:08.199
<v Speaker 2>would know. But we'll have to We'll have to leave
