00:00:02.839 --> 00:00:06.519
<v Speaker 1>Listen is WWE superstar Drew mcintylor And you're listening to

2
00:00:06.639 --> 00:00:13.599
<v Speaker 1>the WWE podcast, the.

3
00:00:13.800 --> 00:00:26.079
<v Speaker 2>Show the one that everybody wants me sixteen. So guys,

4
00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:30.559
<v Speaker 2>just work your ass this mind you can acknowledge me.

5
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:33.280
<v Speaker 3>What is going on?

6
00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:37.840
<v Speaker 2>Everybody, And welcome to a new show here on the

7
00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:43.759
<v Speaker 2>ww podcast. We're going to be reviewing main events. And

8
00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:46.920
<v Speaker 2>for those who are familiar with my Australian accent, I

9
00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:51.200
<v Speaker 2>am Daniel. Helped out fill in SmackDown for a few weeks,

10
00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:55.799
<v Speaker 2>and yeah, it's been good to get back on the podcast.

11
00:00:56.759 --> 00:01:01.359
<v Speaker 2>I guess presenting an idea to basically review main events,

12
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:05.640
<v Speaker 2>just giving myself an opportunity to obviously have a platform

13
00:01:05.719 --> 00:01:09.519
<v Speaker 2>to speak WWE. And what better opportunity are than doing

14
00:01:09.599 --> 00:01:12.640
<v Speaker 2>it with maybe a show that not many people really

15
00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:16.599
<v Speaker 2>watch or I guess not really see or really care about.

16
00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:19.159
<v Speaker 2>But I guess this gives me the opportunity to kind

17
00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:22.760
<v Speaker 2>of discuss WWE and kind of give about some content

18
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:26.239
<v Speaker 2>to you guys, and hopefully you enjoyed what I put

19
00:01:26.239 --> 00:01:30.040
<v Speaker 2>out for SmackDown in those two weeks, And yeah, I

20
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:33.840
<v Speaker 2>just kind of want to continue putting out content, obviously

21
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:36.400
<v Speaker 2>improving on the mic and proving the way I put

22
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:40.079
<v Speaker 2>out podcasts and most importantly giving you guys some content

23
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:42.120
<v Speaker 2>and maybe a few things to learn as well on

24
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:45.719
<v Speaker 2>the way, considering that not time to take in all

25
00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:49.000
<v Speaker 2>the content and you guys rely on podcasts, get updates

26
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:51.920
<v Speaker 2>and whatnot. But yeah, as this goes, I'm just going

27
00:01:52.000 --> 00:01:54.400
<v Speaker 2>to see how things go, if I'm honest, and then

28
00:01:54.439 --> 00:01:56.519
<v Speaker 2>just kind of roll with it. I did want to

29
00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:59.840
<v Speaker 2>get this out sooner, but in here in Australia, the

30
00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:03.480
<v Speaker 2>streaming service that I use has main events that are

31
00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:06.760
<v Speaker 2>literally like a week late, which I'm not sure why

32
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:10.120
<v Speaker 2>is the case for those that don't know what main

33
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:13.479
<v Speaker 2>event is and how it works. It's essentially for the

34
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:18.039
<v Speaker 2>lower to mid tier card wrestlers, it's always before London

35
00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:20.560
<v Speaker 2>at raw, hence why they're in kind of big stadiums

36
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:23.639
<v Speaker 2>in the same stadiums, but they normally get taped out

37
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:26.719
<v Speaker 2>like three or four days later, but in my case,

38
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:30.159
<v Speaker 2>it turns out it's more than more than two weeks.

39
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:35.120
<v Speaker 2>So basically what I'm gonna try to do is see

40
00:02:35.240 --> 00:02:38.159
<v Speaker 2>as soon as I can find the stream, and I

41
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:41.599
<v Speaker 2>guess the watch the main event and give you guys

42
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.960
<v Speaker 2>my content and usually with the main events as well.

43
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:47.919
<v Speaker 2>I forgot to mention they do have some raw snippets

44
00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:50.000
<v Speaker 2>as well, so I guess it'll give me an opportunity

45
00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:52.520
<v Speaker 2>to kind of give my takes and my views on

46
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:56.680
<v Speaker 2>what's happening over on Monday Night RUW, which is also exciting.

47
00:02:56.719 --> 00:02:58.639
<v Speaker 2>So I guess there's a lot of room to play

48
00:02:58.639 --> 00:03:00.919
<v Speaker 2>around with this. It'll be interesting to see how we

49
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:04.560
<v Speaker 2>kind of go, how things kind of work out, and yeah,

50
00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:07.680
<v Speaker 2>I guess week on week open to any feedback, and yeah,

51
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:09.919
<v Speaker 2>we'll see how I can obviously improve it as well.

52
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:13.560
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, a new show, something different, obviously trying to

53
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:16.000
<v Speaker 2>help out as much as I can, and yeah, again

54
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:17.639
<v Speaker 2>really looking forward to it. In the end, it is

55
00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:22.080
<v Speaker 2>talking about WWE, so any WW contents fine for me.

56
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:26.840
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, without further ado, let's get underway with the

57
00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:30.360
<v Speaker 2>first main event review. Alrighty, so we kick off the

58
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:36.159
<v Speaker 2>show with two NXT stars, one Wesley against Dion Lennox

59
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:39.240
<v Speaker 2>well the unex technically not really an NXT star, but

60
00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:42.280
<v Speaker 2>I would assume that he'd be moving over to there

61
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:45.199
<v Speaker 2>as this is his first Yeah, I guess main card

62
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:48.919
<v Speaker 2>debut up against Wes Lee, who's had quite some decent

63
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:52.479
<v Speaker 2>runs in NXT with the North American Championship. He wins

64
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.599
<v Speaker 2>the match in about seven minutes with the cardiac kick,

65
00:03:56.280 --> 00:03:58.199
<v Speaker 2>and I guess from what I saw here, if I'm

66
00:03:58.240 --> 00:04:01.639
<v Speaker 2>quite honest and don't really watch an XT that much,

67
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:05.520
<v Speaker 2>trying to obviously get into it now that I'm going

68
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:09.719
<v Speaker 2>to be starting doing content with you guys, but yeah,

69
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:13.520
<v Speaker 2>matchman for seven minutes, not really much to see there,

70
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:16.839
<v Speaker 2>I guess, showing that the veteran is more and much

71
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:20.399
<v Speaker 2>more experienced than the Lenox there, who was obviously a

72
00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:24.759
<v Speaker 2>linebacker before as mentioned in the commentary, and yeah, been

73
00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:26.800
<v Speaker 2>new to the scene, but from what I saw from

74
00:04:26.839 --> 00:04:32.000
<v Speaker 2>down Lennox, he looked pretty strong, pretty powerful there. Obviously,

75
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:33.800
<v Speaker 2>this is his first rodeo, so I don't think a

76
00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:36.480
<v Speaker 2>loss will affect him too much, but it'd be interested

77
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:39.120
<v Speaker 2>to see how he goes in n XT if he

78
00:04:39.160 --> 00:04:41.839
<v Speaker 2>does get a spot there. He did put up a

79
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:46.079
<v Speaker 2>pretty nice, mean looking spinebuster which turned back to clocks

80
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:48.480
<v Speaker 2>for me personally, so that was nice to see, and

81
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:51.560
<v Speaker 2>west Lee obviously showing his experience there. I think the

82
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:53.720
<v Speaker 2>only thing I would probably flag with him is that

83
00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:57.879
<v Speaker 2>he's extremely undersized, so don't really know what he would

84
00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:01.959
<v Speaker 2>do much in the main card on raws back on

85
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:04.800
<v Speaker 2>the main shows I'm talking about, Yeah, but I guess

86
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:08.199
<v Speaker 2>maybe there might be some big things for Wesley in

87
00:05:08.199 --> 00:05:11.160
<v Speaker 2>the future on NXT, and I guess look out for

88
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:14.560
<v Speaker 2>that if you are, yeah, wanting to see these up

89
00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:17.920
<v Speaker 2>and coming superstars. It was just a good display, simple match,

90
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.399
<v Speaker 2>a lot of good moves and yeah, Wesley came out

91
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:25.199
<v Speaker 2>with the victory there, and yeah, obviously with main events

92
00:05:25.240 --> 00:05:28.480
<v Speaker 2>since they have a whole show but not really many matches.

93
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:32.120
<v Speaker 2>It moves over to I guess back to Raw where

94
00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:37.959
<v Speaker 2>Sampunk has that promo with or addressing Seth Rowlins basically

95
00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:41.199
<v Speaker 2>as saying that he did ghost him in the past

96
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:45.480
<v Speaker 2>and he wanted to move on from things. But essentially

97
00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:49.040
<v Speaker 2>Seth Rowlins was in his shadow continuing on to yeah,

98
00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:52.800
<v Speaker 2>make this his problem, and as we saw, they got out,

99
00:05:52.920 --> 00:05:55.480
<v Speaker 2>got onto a wild braw and it looks like they're

100
00:05:55.480 --> 00:06:00.720
<v Speaker 2>going to be fighting for or fighting on Netflix. My

101
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:04.560
<v Speaker 2>opinion on this for I guess it's good, but I

102
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:06.920
<v Speaker 2>feel like it's a bit more premature. I really like

103
00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:10.199
<v Speaker 2>to see them fight at WrestleMania on the biggest stage.

104
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:13.120
<v Speaker 2>I think that would be the right situation. For them.

105
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:15.759
<v Speaker 2>It is also interesting, however, this is going to be

106
00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:18.639
<v Speaker 2>the main event of Netflix and not the tribal combat

107
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:22.600
<v Speaker 2>fight between Solo and Romans. So yeah, I think they

108
00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:25.560
<v Speaker 2>may have this match, but I feel as though it's

109
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:27.360
<v Speaker 2>not going to be the last time we see these

110
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:31.720
<v Speaker 2>two in a ring together. Punks obviously claiming that he's

111
00:06:31.879 --> 00:06:35.600
<v Speaker 2>the bad guy, obviously a swing to get the fans

112
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:38.720
<v Speaker 2>on his side. We know that regular working people always

113
00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:41.079
<v Speaker 2>going to be on the side of the rebellious and

114
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:44.199
<v Speaker 2>the ones that are going against the company. Was as

115
00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:48.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm previously mentioned, with Matt Seth Rowlins being the company guy,

116
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:50.560
<v Speaker 2>the one that's following the rules, the one that's always

117
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:53.439
<v Speaker 2>been on w W side. Again, the whole feud is

118
00:06:53.959 --> 00:06:57.680
<v Speaker 2>quite silly, Like I know that they have beef, real

119
00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:01.560
<v Speaker 2>lovee beef, but when it came to Sampung not reaching

120
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:04.639
<v Speaker 2>out to Seth Rowlins being the sole reason, it's real petty, Like,

121
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:08.240
<v Speaker 2>let's be honest here, I imagine you just like not

122
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:10.519
<v Speaker 2>talking to someone and they get upset there they don't answer.

123
00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:13.399
<v Speaker 2>Like I can understand all the other stuff with him

124
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:16.319
<v Speaker 2>leaving WWE, having a bad name and talking bad about

125
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:19.160
<v Speaker 2>the WWE when he left, then I can understan why

126
00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:21.279
<v Speaker 2>seth Ron's getting angry, but because he didn't return your call,

127
00:07:21.560 --> 00:07:24.000
<v Speaker 2>you're getting upset just doesn't really make sense. I think

128
00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:27.040
<v Speaker 2>they don't really need to overpush the hate between each

129
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:29.720
<v Speaker 2>other because I feel as though everyone kind of knows

130
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:33.000
<v Speaker 2>the hate. It was well done when Sampunk came back

131
00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:36.519
<v Speaker 2>last year or the year before almost in Surviva series.

132
00:07:37.079 --> 00:07:41.040
<v Speaker 2>So this just has to be sorted in an orderly manner.

133
00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:46.040
<v Speaker 2>I think how they have their match this week and

134
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:49.800
<v Speaker 2>maybe in the raw rumble Seth Rowlands Coross Sampunk or

135
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:52.360
<v Speaker 2>something where so this match can continue, and I guess

136
00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:55.240
<v Speaker 2>there can be a clear face of hell going into WrestleMania,

137
00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:57.920
<v Speaker 2>because I really, I really don't think that this is

138
00:07:57.920 --> 00:07:59.439
<v Speaker 2>going to be their only match, and it'll be good

139
00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:02.360
<v Speaker 2>to see then yeah, go at it for a few

140
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:06.399
<v Speaker 2>more matches as well. Yeah, whether it's elimination Chamber, someone

141
00:08:06.399 --> 00:08:09.600
<v Speaker 2>interferes someone else, or whether I think personally that Seth

142
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Rowlins interferes with Cmpunk and kind of cuts out any

143
00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:17.399
<v Speaker 2>of his championship aspirations, which is clear what Sampunk is

144
00:08:17.439 --> 00:08:20.079
<v Speaker 2>showing that he's going for. But yeah, I think that's

145
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:22.680
<v Speaker 2>where the opportunity is there because I don't really again

146
00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:25.959
<v Speaker 2>see that the fight on Raw Deviu on Netflix is

147
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:27.959
<v Speaker 2>gonna It's gonna solve a lot of problems. It can't

148
00:08:27.959 --> 00:08:30.519
<v Speaker 2>be a one undone this one. But yeah, we move on.

149
00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:34.519
<v Speaker 2>We get a shins K Knackamoura promo. I'm loving the

150
00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:38.320
<v Speaker 2>new Knakamura cameo as well. So yeah, again, as mentioned,

151
00:08:38.320 --> 00:08:41.240
<v Speaker 2>main event kind of jumps in and out of Ruin SmackDown,

152
00:08:41.480 --> 00:08:44.720
<v Speaker 2>which allows me to obviously review the main shows too,

153
00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:47.519
<v Speaker 2>which is good. It's nice touch or us. This podcast

154
00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:51.440
<v Speaker 2>would literally go for like ten minutes and we wouldn't

155
00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:53.519
<v Speaker 2>have any content for you guys. And I guess give

156
00:08:53.559 --> 00:08:55.919
<v Speaker 2>him My opinion is why not? You know, I do

157
00:08:56.000 --> 00:08:59.440
<v Speaker 2>watch both shows, so I guess my opinion can mean something.

158
00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:02.480
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, they do a promo of shins K Nakamore,

159
00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:06.080
<v Speaker 2>basically him saying that La nised first, he didn't deserve

160
00:09:06.120 --> 00:09:09.600
<v Speaker 2>to have the United States Championship and basically insinuating that

161
00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:11.720
<v Speaker 2>this is going to be the start of something for him.

162
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:13.960
<v Speaker 2>And it's really good to see Nakamoor like this. As

163
00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:17.039
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned, I really like Shinsky. I've always loved Shinsky.

164
00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:20.240
<v Speaker 2>I feel like he's unbelievable in the ring. His promo work. Obviously,

165
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.000
<v Speaker 2>not speaking English didn't help him, but with these new

166
00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:25.519
<v Speaker 2>dark kind of cut scenes and videos, they found a

167
00:09:25.559 --> 00:09:29.399
<v Speaker 2>brilliant way to kind of, I guess, showcase his message

168
00:09:29.519 --> 00:09:32.879
<v Speaker 2>and basically his new demeanor now, which is great. We're

169
00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:35.279
<v Speaker 2>now seeing a darker side of Shinske. We're seeing a

170
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:40.000
<v Speaker 2>more kind of mysterious vibe and something that's really different

171
00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:42.639
<v Speaker 2>before he was he got off the shows, he was

172
00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:45.200
<v Speaker 2>just essentially a job by losing matches, and I feel

173
00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:48.120
<v Speaker 2>like that's such a big waste for such a experienced

174
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:51.600
<v Speaker 2>wrest line and someone that's done a lot for wrestling

175
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:54.720
<v Speaker 2>around the whole world, especially in Japan and even coming

176
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:57.519
<v Speaker 2>to WWE. So it's a really good opportunity for shinsk

177
00:09:57.720 --> 00:10:00.279
<v Speaker 2>to kind of, yeah, I guess, grow from In the

178
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:02.679
<v Speaker 2>United States Championship. As much as I love La and Night,

179
00:10:02.679 --> 00:10:04.200
<v Speaker 2>I think it was a great core for she to

180
00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:07.840
<v Speaker 2>get to win, and hopefully this gets kind of sorted

181
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:10.000
<v Speaker 2>and La and I can move on to bigger and

182
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:13.279
<v Speaker 2>better things, and to be honest, for him, that's going

183
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:17.080
<v Speaker 2>for world championships or having bigger feuds as well, because

184
00:10:17.080 --> 00:10:20.159
<v Speaker 2>I definitely think La Night is more than the United

185
00:10:20.159 --> 00:10:23.120
<v Speaker 2>States Championship, and that's not mean to say that Shunske isn't,

186
00:10:23.279 --> 00:10:26.200
<v Speaker 2>but obviously him coming back from a big spell of

187
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:29.440
<v Speaker 2>live TV, I know he was doing house shows makes

188
00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:32.279
<v Speaker 2>this just this run a little bit more interesting. And

189
00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:34.480
<v Speaker 2>it's always much better when a Heell is a champion

190
00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:36.480
<v Speaker 2>as well, because you get to see the dirty tactics,

191
00:10:36.480 --> 00:10:38.360
<v Speaker 2>you get to see how they kind of defend the

192
00:10:38.440 --> 00:10:41.639
<v Speaker 2>champion as well, and maybe there'll be a good match

193
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:45.679
<v Speaker 2>in the future for him. I'm making a bold prediction here.

194
00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:48.159
<v Speaker 2>We haven't seen aj styles in a while, and I'd

195
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:50.519
<v Speaker 2>like to see them kind of lace it up again

196
00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:53.360
<v Speaker 2>in a match for that US title as well. I

197
00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:57.559
<v Speaker 2>think it would be really interesting. We then get onto Raw,

198
00:10:57.840 --> 00:11:02.240
<v Speaker 2>so another Raw show back gone to the Intercontinental Championship

199
00:11:02.519 --> 00:11:05.679
<v Speaker 2>match between bron Breaker and Kaiser, where we see bron

200
00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Breaker win here, and let's be honest, we're not surprised

201
00:11:08.440 --> 00:11:11.240
<v Speaker 2>that bron Breaker retained his title. They've been really trying

202
00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:14.399
<v Speaker 2>to push Kaiser a lot this year, and I am

203
00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:17.080
<v Speaker 2>all for it, but I still think that the only

204
00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:20.360
<v Speaker 2>way you're really going to push Kaiser is to somehow

205
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:22.399
<v Speaker 2>find a way to separate him from Guntha, and I

206
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:25.559
<v Speaker 2>know he hasn't been involved with Guntha at all. They

207
00:11:25.559 --> 00:11:28.519
<v Speaker 2>haven't really been showing much of them together, but I

208
00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:31.720
<v Speaker 2>really would like to see like an official split up

209
00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:34.559
<v Speaker 2>between the two. That way we can kind of take

210
00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:37.080
<v Speaker 2>Kaiser a little bit more seriously. I think, because he's

211
00:11:37.120 --> 00:11:40.000
<v Speaker 2>got potential. He's really good in the rim. He's having

212
00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:42.600
<v Speaker 2>a lot of good feuds between superstars. That feud with

213
00:11:42.679 --> 00:11:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Shamus is pretty solid. He showcased that he can keep

214
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:50.240
<v Speaker 2>up with the current superstars at the moment and make

215
00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:53.440
<v Speaker 2>a case for the Intercontinental Championship. But at the same time,

216
00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:57.559
<v Speaker 2>he's still I think personally viewed as gone to sidekick

217
00:11:57.600 --> 00:12:00.360
<v Speaker 2>even though he's not being sidekick. That hasn't been in

218
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:02.639
<v Speaker 2>an official split up there, so it would be good

219
00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:04.840
<v Speaker 2>to see that. It'd also be good for him to

220
00:12:04.919 --> 00:12:08.159
<v Speaker 2>kind of, yeah, make a bit stronger case on winning

221
00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:10.679
<v Speaker 2>a championship as well, because at the moment, I don't

222
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:14.919
<v Speaker 2>think brom Breakers looking like losing at all. So yeah, again,

223
00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:18.000
<v Speaker 2>interested to see what they do with Kaiser after this.

224
00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:20.240
<v Speaker 2>This surely doesn't really help him at all. I think

225
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:23.519
<v Speaker 2>it just continues that reputation that oh, yeah, he's good,

226
00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:27.399
<v Speaker 2>he's solid. He's having good matches, but he's not going

227
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:30.120
<v Speaker 2>to win, So yeah, they're in a tough spot there.

228
00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:33.399
<v Speaker 2>I think the Gunfer a future gun for feud might

229
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:35.720
<v Speaker 2>be good if they if they're willing to push him

230
00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:37.679
<v Speaker 2>to the limits, but I don't think he's ready for

231
00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:40.000
<v Speaker 2>that yet and I think Gunpher is too over at

232
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.759
<v Speaker 2>the moment. But yeah, that's what I think. I think

233
00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:47.080
<v Speaker 2>a split there is imminent if I'm honest. We then

234
00:12:47.159 --> 00:12:49.799
<v Speaker 2>go back to the main event, which is great, back

235
00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:52.679
<v Speaker 2>to what we're supposed to be reviewing with the Unholy

236
00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:56.039
<v Speaker 2>Union going against Kevin Kind and Katana Chance, and yeah,

237
00:12:56.039 --> 00:12:59.159
<v Speaker 2>the Unholy Union. What a fall from grace they've had.

238
00:12:59.519 --> 00:13:03.279
<v Speaker 2>Ever since they lost the titles, they've done nothing. And

239
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:05.360
<v Speaker 2>I think the reason why they won the titles in

240
00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:07.519
<v Speaker 2>the first place just because it was in Scotland and

241
00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:09.919
<v Speaker 2>they haven't fall clashed the Castle when they want it,

242
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:12.879
<v Speaker 2>and they haven't figured out a way to get them

243
00:13:12.919 --> 00:13:16.200
<v Speaker 2>involved again because we're seeing them on main event shows.

244
00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:19.120
<v Speaker 2>They get the win here, just a back and forth match,

245
00:13:19.200 --> 00:13:23.120
<v Speaker 2>classic match. They're nothing really to talk about here. They

246
00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:26.360
<v Speaker 2>get the win, and I don't know, I guess they

247
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:30.200
<v Speaker 2>could potentially get back into the tag team for both

248
00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:33.159
<v Speaker 2>tag teams, but there really isn't much for them, if

249
00:13:33.159 --> 00:13:36.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm honest, and I feel as though the match is

250
00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:37.759
<v Speaker 2>a bit of a waste for main event. I feel

251
00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:41.879
<v Speaker 2>like getting in some NXT talent would make more sense

252
00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:45.159
<v Speaker 2>in that aspect because you're not really seeing where these

253
00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:47.600
<v Speaker 2>superstars are going to go, like Cadan Kind and Katana

254
00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:51.639
<v Speaker 2>Chance as tag teams, don't really see them going anywhere

255
00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:57.000
<v Speaker 2>as singles players, not really either. They're definitely superstars that

256
00:13:57.000 --> 00:13:59.879
<v Speaker 2>can easily be replaced with what's going on in any

257
00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:02.559
<v Speaker 2>tea right now with Rox and Peiers, l of Ice

258
00:14:02.600 --> 00:14:05.159
<v Speaker 2>and all that that could definitely do a better job.

259
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:06.960
<v Speaker 2>And even if you can't get him on the next TA,

260
00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:09.720
<v Speaker 2>get him on main events before before Raw, so then

261
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:12.039
<v Speaker 2>that the audience can kind of have their eyes sudden

262
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:14.759
<v Speaker 2>them and see how they perform, because we've seen enough

263
00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:17.159
<v Speaker 2>of I guess the Young Holy Union and also Katie Karida,

264
00:14:17.200 --> 00:14:20.639
<v Speaker 2>Katana Chance, and let's face it, they don't look near

265
00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:24.799
<v Speaker 2>ready for a title contendership. And it's pretty sad because

266
00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:28.960
<v Speaker 2>there is a need of women's tag teams and these

267
00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:33.519
<v Speaker 2>four haven't really shown that. The match, though, as I said,

268
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:37.759
<v Speaker 2>was average, back and forth. Good display, but in terms

269
00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:40.799
<v Speaker 2>of them going forward as tag teams, there doesn't seem

270
00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:44.279
<v Speaker 2>to be a pathway there for any success. But you

271
00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:46.720
<v Speaker 2>never know. Maybe they'll get their opportunities back on Raw,

272
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:48.720
<v Speaker 2>if there's some transfers that might go on SmackDown and

273
00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:51.159
<v Speaker 2>see if they can do anything. But again, with that

274
00:14:51.240 --> 00:14:53.960
<v Speaker 2>one championship belt, it is also hard to kind of

275
00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:56.879
<v Speaker 2>chop and change these superstars because they don't really have

276
00:14:57.120 --> 00:15:02.360
<v Speaker 2>a certain destination. So yeah, it will be interesting to

277
00:15:02.399 --> 00:15:06.200
<v Speaker 2>see what happens. Maybe back on continue to do main

278
00:15:06.240 --> 00:15:10.840
<v Speaker 2>events shows before, but yeah, a bit difficult in that aspect.

279
00:15:11.840 --> 00:15:15.879
<v Speaker 2>We then had the main event back on Raw with

280
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:19.639
<v Speaker 2>the war Raiders taking on Finnbala and JD McDonough for

281
00:15:19.840 --> 00:15:24.279
<v Speaker 2>the World Tag Team champions and as we did see,

282
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:29.559
<v Speaker 2>just as I guess, Jada McDonald and Finnbala were gonna

283
00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:35.000
<v Speaker 2>get up to their normal antics disqualifying themselves and maintaining

284
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:38.480
<v Speaker 2>the title, which I for one second really thought was

285
00:15:38.519 --> 00:15:40.840
<v Speaker 2>going to happen, and quite failing, was going to be

286
00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:44.799
<v Speaker 2>very disappointed if it did. Thankfully, Damian Priest came out

287
00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:49.519
<v Speaker 2>stopped Finnbala from obviously using the chair, and then that

288
00:15:49.639 --> 00:15:53.360
<v Speaker 2>led to the war Raiders winning the match, finally ending

289
00:15:54.399 --> 00:16:00.279
<v Speaker 2>this underwhelming reign between Finndala and Jada McDonough which them

290
00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:03.639
<v Speaker 2>defend the title about three or four times. And now

291
00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:07.720
<v Speaker 2>we've got some actual tag teams that hopefully will defend

292
00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:10.600
<v Speaker 2>the titles on a regular basis. I'll be interesting to

293
00:16:10.639 --> 00:16:14.480
<v Speaker 2>see watch direction they go with the new and revamped

294
00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:17.600
<v Speaker 2>war Raiders, which are looking like to be faces of

295
00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:20.960
<v Speaker 2>the BW now before there were heels, and obviously with

296
00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:24.279
<v Speaker 2>a new outlook and new name to top that off,

297
00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:27.480
<v Speaker 2>and I guess that will lead into another Damien Priest

298
00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:31.360
<v Speaker 2>and Finnbella program where this might continue one all the

299
00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:35.440
<v Speaker 2>way to WrestleMania, especially with the Royal Rumbill coming up

300
00:16:35.480 --> 00:16:38.440
<v Speaker 2>with another Saturday Night Man event, we may see this

301
00:16:38.840 --> 00:16:43.120
<v Speaker 2>storyline go all the way until then. And should we

302
00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:45.519
<v Speaker 2>do really good things for Finnbala, I feel like this

303
00:16:45.559 --> 00:16:48.759
<v Speaker 2>will put Damien Priest over the top and eventually he'll

304
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:52.879
<v Speaker 2>end up contending for heavyweight champions again in the future.

305
00:16:53.399 --> 00:16:57.440
<v Speaker 2>But I think with that feud, I think there's a

306
00:16:57.480 --> 00:17:00.000
<v Speaker 2>lot to go there that haven't really scratched the surface

307
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:03.480
<v Speaker 2>of it much. We obviously had bad blood where they

308
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:06.200
<v Speaker 2>had their their their fight, but it'd be good to

309
00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:09.759
<v Speaker 2>see if there's any more. Oh, there's a stipulation added

310
00:17:09.799 --> 00:17:12.519
<v Speaker 2>to that, and I feel like on a personal basis, actually,

311
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:14.680
<v Speaker 2>I know a lot of people do like one v

312
00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:19.559
<v Speaker 2>one fighting without any additional stipulations, but I felt like

313
00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:22.559
<v Speaker 2>there wasn't many many last year, so it'd really be

314
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:26.039
<v Speaker 2>good to see these two I have something involved with

315
00:17:26.119 --> 00:17:29.559
<v Speaker 2>extreme rules, whether it's tables match, I didn't even know.

316
00:17:29.680 --> 00:17:31.039
<v Speaker 2>I'm just seeking it at the top of my head.

317
00:17:31.119 --> 00:17:34.440
<v Speaker 2>Some to that involves the stiplsion so that we can

318
00:17:34.480 --> 00:17:40.559
<v Speaker 2>see this kind of more more exposed and with more violence.

319
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:44.599
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I think that's pretty much how we're going

320
00:17:44.640 --> 00:17:48.640
<v Speaker 2>to finish it off. I don't really see myself doing

321
00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:52.720
<v Speaker 2>these episodes for thirty minutes or so, just because of

322
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:54.880
<v Speaker 2>the fact that there's not really much content on main event.

323
00:17:54.920 --> 00:17:58.079
<v Speaker 2>But again, this is the first go at it. We're

324
00:17:58.119 --> 00:17:59.799
<v Speaker 2>going to see how things go on a week to week,

325
00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:05.200
<v Speaker 2>so there may be some inconsistencies with the content early on,

326
00:18:05.720 --> 00:18:08.680
<v Speaker 2>just again trying to figure out ways to kind of

327
00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:11.559
<v Speaker 2>bring this out to you guys, and also figure out

328
00:18:11.559 --> 00:18:13.640
<v Speaker 2>what's going on with the streams. As I mentioned at

329
00:18:13.640 --> 00:18:16.839
<v Speaker 2>the start, of the start of the show. Here in Australia,

330
00:18:16.880 --> 00:18:19.799
<v Speaker 2>we have for some reason a week delay in main

331
00:18:19.839 --> 00:18:23.079
<v Speaker 2>event shows, so I found myself being a one week

332
00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:26.000
<v Speaker 2>behind each week. But we'll try to fix that up

333
00:18:26.039 --> 00:18:29.119
<v Speaker 2>and get that content as soon as possible, especially because

334
00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:33.160
<v Speaker 2>obviously these shows are filmed before Monday Night Raw, so

335
00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:36.119
<v Speaker 2>I obviously want to get these out before the next

336
00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:40.519
<v Speaker 2>episode of Raw there. But that's why there's been a delay,

337
00:18:40.880 --> 00:18:43.880
<v Speaker 2>So apologies for that, and yeah, hopefully I can get

338
00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:47.319
<v Speaker 2>some consistency on that, and yeah, continue to kind of

339
00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:49.839
<v Speaker 2>just give out my opinions and shows and it does

340
00:18:49.920 --> 00:18:52.920
<v Speaker 2>help with raw content. I'm able to kind of bounce

341
00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:55.960
<v Speaker 2>off that too because they do obviously screen that on

342
00:18:56.000 --> 00:18:59.480
<v Speaker 2>the main event show, so not really missing out on

343
00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:03.240
<v Speaker 2>too much there. But yeah, it's been it's been a

344
00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:07.519
<v Speaker 2>pleasure and we'll catch youse on next week's episode.
