WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:05.679 Oh my god. You know, I'm honestly sitting here and 2 00:00:05.719 --> 00:00:10.800 I'm debating what's worse, SmackDown or the Mets. And the 3 00:00:10.839 --> 00:00:13.640 Mets have lost fourteen of their last sixteen. I'm still 4 00:00:13.679 --> 00:00:17.839 not convinced. I'm still not convinced that they are not 5 00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:24.679 worse than SmackDown. SmackDown was in Boston tonight. No Cody Rhodes, 6 00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:28.559 no John Cena, no brock Lesnar, no Logan Paul. A 7 00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:31.800 lot of key names that are tied into various stories 8 00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:34.880 on SmackDown that were not on the show tonight. But 9 00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:38.079 we had Solo, Sakoa and the MFTs. They were all 10 00:00:38.119 --> 00:00:43.439 over this show, including the main event six man tag 11 00:00:43.479 --> 00:00:45.880 team match in the main event. You know, at least 12 00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:49.920 tonight we actually had a clean finish in the main event. 13 00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.079 I could not say that for Raw Monday Night. I 14 00:00:52.119 --> 00:00:54.640 could not say that for SmackDown last week. At least 15 00:00:54.679 --> 00:00:58.159 we did not have a fucking disqualification in the main event. 16 00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:04.799 Tod That's great, that's great. Sammy's Ain is officially now 17 00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:09.239 a member of the SmackDown roster. They made it official. 18 00:01:09.239 --> 00:01:11.599 It kind of felt that way anyway. Last week he 19 00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:14.640 got a win over Solo Socoa. It felt like he 20 00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:17.120 should be going for the United States Championship. Then they 21 00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:18.959 attacked him on Raw Monday night. I got to deal 22 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:22.719 with the MFTs on Monday. It only felt natural that 23 00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:24.920 you would move Sammy over to SmackDown. They made that 24 00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:27.519 official and he was in the main event tonight and 25 00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:30.840 he got another win. He pinned the United States Champion 26 00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:34.879 two weeks in a row. That doesn't bode very well 27 00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:37.799 for his chances when he actually gets that title match, 28 00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:40.920 but we'll we'll get there at some point. They did 29 00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:44.840 not make that announcement official tonight. What else can I 30 00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:47.120 say about this show? I'll tell you one good thing. 31 00:01:48.120 --> 00:01:51.319 Better late than never. They're actually doing something with Carmelo Hayes. 32 00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:55.159 They're doing a story with Carmelo Hayes and the MIZZ 33 00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:58.840 that is clearly intended to eventually turn Carmelo Hayes' babyface. 34 00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:01.200 That's more than I can say. They've done with Carmelo 35 00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:04.519 hayesen months on this show. I don't know what took 36 00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:07.560 them so long, but at least they're doing something with him, right, 37 00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:10.319 so that's a plus. And we had Jacob Fatu in 38 00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:12.080 the main event tonight as well. On that six man 39 00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:14.520 tag team match, which that sort of thing is the 40 00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:16.719 sort of thing we need to see more of. I 41 00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:19.400 just wish they had something more compelling and more engaging 42 00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:22.360 for him to be involved in. At the moment. There's 43 00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:24.759 not a whole lot to say on this show as 44 00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:28.039 far as things that are engaging or things that are 45 00:02:28.120 --> 00:02:30.400 terribly interesting. I'm sorry. I wish I could say that 46 00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.759 there was, but there is not. Case in point, look 47 00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:38.840 at the women's championship scene on SmackDown. It was very 48 00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:41.599 striking tonight. And I'm not just talking about the WWE 49 00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.759 Women's Championship in Tiffany Stratton. I'm talking about the US 50 00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:49.199 title as well with Julia. Julia's representative was on the 51 00:02:49.240 --> 00:02:53.360 show tonight. Julia herself was not on the show. And 52 00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:55.080 let's not pretend that they've done a whole hell of 53 00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:57.919 a lot with Julia so far. She's got the championship, 54 00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:00.400 she hasn't done anything with it yet. But I'm looking 55 00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:02.680 at the women's scene on SmackDown right now, and tonight 56 00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:07.639 what we had was a backstage segment involving Tiffany Stratton, 57 00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:12.479 Jade Cargill, and Nya Jacks, who's been spending the last 58 00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:15.280 few weeks on NXT, but they were all bickering and 59 00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:19.039 they were all arguing, and they sure made you think 60 00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:22.800 that we're getting another match soon involving Tiffany Stratton and 61 00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:28.719 Nya Jacks. That is how barren barren they are with ideas. 62 00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:31.840 When it comes to the women's championship picture on this show, 63 00:03:31.960 --> 00:03:36.120 it is dire. The women's title scene on this show 64 00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:41.879 is dire, and it is in need of obviously, it's 65 00:03:41.919 --> 00:03:44.039 in need of some fresh blood. It's in need of 66 00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:47.120 Bianca bel Air, and it's out of their hands. Obviously 67 00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:49.240 she has to get medically cleared first, but boy, they 68 00:03:49.240 --> 00:03:52.560 have really taken a blow not having her available. That 69 00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:55.199 much is clear now. I'm hoping that she gets cleared soon. 70 00:03:55.280 --> 00:03:57.240 But again, she was talking a few weeks ago before 71 00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:00.280 SummerSlam about how you know, the one broken finger that 72 00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:03.120 still won't bend. If that doesn't heal on its own, 73 00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:06.599 she'll need surgery. So let's get a prayer circle going 74 00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:08.840 for Bianca Belair that she can be okay and she 75 00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:11.840 can get medically cleared soon, because my god, could this 76 00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:15.840 division use her right now on TV. So don't even 77 00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:18.079 get me started on the women's division on this show. 78 00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:22.839 This was another boring episode of SmackDown. Last week's SmackDown 79 00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:27.759 absolutely sucked tonight. There were pockets of little glimmers and 80 00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:30.240 pockets of hope here and there again the Carmelo Hayes 81 00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:32.959 stuff as an example. There was some you know, solid 82 00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.480 wrestling on the show. But the show it it has 83 00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:43.240 no soul. It is completely devoid of any soul. I 84 00:04:43.240 --> 00:04:47.720 don't understand how this show could be so boring with 85 00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:49.759 all of the names that they have in this company, 86 00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:51.319 and this is the best that they could come up 87 00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:54.560 with week to week. What is going on here? It's 88 00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:59.959 like they took the summer off. I'm not even exagger 89 00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:02.279 I tell you that the episodes of Collision that I 90 00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:04.480 am able to check out, Collision is a better show 91 00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:08.480 than SmackDown. There is a TNA pay per view tonight, Emergence. 92 00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:11.680 I forgot all about that. I haven't watched it, obviously, 93 00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:13.519 I was watching SmackDown. But I am certain that that 94 00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:17.399 is a better show than SmackDown was tonight. But Collision 95 00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:19.399 week to week is a better show than SmackDown. That 96 00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:21.759 is where we are at this point. That's where we are. 97 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:26.800 I don't understand it. I really don't now. They did 98 00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:30.399 mention tonight for those of you wondering about the Naomi situation, 99 00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:33.519 Naomi is going to be on RAW this Monday night. 100 00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:38.480 They did not say what her status is. Obviously, she 101 00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:41.240 will update everybody on her status on Raw. We will 102 00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:43.680 get an answer if she is going to be out 103 00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:46.480 for a while for whatever reason and has to vacate 104 00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:49.600 the Women's Championship, we will know on Monday night. So 105 00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:51.600 that is the update on Naomi. We'll have to wait 106 00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:53.879 until then for answers. In the meantime, though, we're stuck 107 00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:57.240 talking about SmackDown. Sorry, guys, at least she got me. 108 00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:00.360 This is your SmackDown review. It is Friday night, August fifth, tenth, 109 00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:05.519 twenty twenty five. I am the Solemn Monster. I promise 110 00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:08.720 to not be as boring as this show was. Jay 111 00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:11.680 wants to know, then, why are you watching it? Then? Well, Jay, 112 00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:13.680 you might be new here, but you see I review 113 00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:16.920 SmackDown every week. Now. I don't have a crystal ball 114 00:06:16.959 --> 00:06:19.079 in my hand. Although watching the show last week, I 115 00:06:19.120 --> 00:06:21.319 probably should have deduced that this show would not be 116 00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:23.600 much better. But see, I don't know what kind of 117 00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.000 show I'm going to get from week to week. That's 118 00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:31.680 why you watch the shows. Sometimes they're great, sometimes they're not. Unfortunately, 119 00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:34.319 this is two straight weeks of very boring television that 120 00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:36.040 we have been given and my job is to sit 121 00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:38.120 here and talk about these shows, because that is what 122 00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:40.360 I do here on this channel. I talk about raw, 123 00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:44.399 I talk about SmackDown, I talk about Dynamite, I talk 124 00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:47.079 about whatever the hell I want to talk about. So 125 00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:49.879 I hope that helps, and I hope that I can 126 00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:52.959 give you a more entertaining review than wwe gave you 127 00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:57.639 a show tonight. That's my job. Hit that subscribe button. Oh, 128 00:06:57.680 --> 00:06:59.160 by the way, I have to give a shout out 129 00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:02.879 to Brian, mister Finelli. I don't know if he's with 130 00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:05.079 us Tonight Live or not, but Brian put together this 131 00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:08.199 very cool graphic here. We hit eighty eight thousand subscribers 132 00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:13.000 on the channel the other day, and of course got 133 00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:14.920 to get that back to the future reference in there. 134 00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:17.720 So Brian, thank you for this, and thank you all 135 00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:21.839 for eighty eight thousand subscribers as we now begin the 136 00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:25.959 journey to eighty nine eighty nine k that is coming 137 00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:29.759 up next. So again, Brian, thank you for the cool graphic. There. 138 00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:32.959 Super chats are open if you have questions, comments, you 139 00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:35.879 want to support the channel, I'll be reading your messages 140 00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:37.680 a little bit later on. You'll see them popping up 141 00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:41.079 on your screen. And with that out of the way, 142 00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:43.800 let's get into this show here. Let's talk about smack 143 00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:47.000 Then this shouldn't take too long. I don't suspect this 144 00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:50.240 is going to take very long tonight. Kevin says, your 145 00:07:50.279 --> 00:07:54.319 reviews are better than WWE shows most times. Well, I'm 146 00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:56.560 very happy to hear you say that. I just wish 147 00:07:56.639 --> 00:08:01.040 it wasn't the case. It's kind of sad, but hey, 148 00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:08.000 I'll take the compliment. So SmackDown open with Solo, Sekela 149 00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:11.680 and his family trade making their way down to the ring. 150 00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:15.720 So the United States Champion said that the MFTs were 151 00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:21.079 in the building tonight to remind everybody that they ran SmackDown. 152 00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:25.199 No wonder this show has been so awful, so he says, 153 00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:29.519 if nobody likes that too bad. Last week, Sammy's ain 154 00:08:29.639 --> 00:08:31.839 came out on SmackDown, and that forced Solo in the 155 00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:35.639 MFTs to show up on Raw two, in his words, 156 00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:40.919 stomp his ass out. Sikoha declared that Sammy was stomped 157 00:08:40.919 --> 00:08:43.960 out along with Jimmy USSO and Jacob Fatu, and he 158 00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:46.840 once again challenged anybody in the back to come on 159 00:08:46.919 --> 00:08:49.759 out and challenge him, and he was cut off by 160 00:08:49.759 --> 00:08:52.399 Sammy z Ain's music. So he made his way down 161 00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:54.120 to the ring and Sammy said, look, I'm just here 162 00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:56.559 to talk, that's all I want to do. So the 163 00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:58.919 MFTs they left the ring. It was just Sammy and 164 00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:02.279 Solo and the ring together. Samy said, this past Monday, 165 00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:07.120 had he beaten Russev in their match, it's very possible 166 00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:09.320 that he could have been fighting for the World Heavyweight 167 00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:12.480 Championship at Clash in Paris. As it is, there's a 168 00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:16.039 four way match. Sammy's ain't is not involved in that match, 169 00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:18.200 but maybe he would have been had he got to 170 00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:21.480 win on Monday. And now that's not going to happen 171 00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:25.759 thanks to the MFTs, and he was furious about it, 172 00:09:25.799 --> 00:09:30.279 but after some thinking he noted that he was finally liberated. 173 00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:33.960 He had been so focused on chasing the world title 174 00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:36.320 that he hadn't really had time to focus on other 175 00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:39.320 things in WWE, and for that he has to thank 176 00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:44.519 Solo's Socoa. So Samy said, there was one title that 177 00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:48.240 he has never held outside of the world title, in WWE, 178 00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:52.639 and that is the United States Championship. So Solo taunted 179 00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:54.320 him and said, yeah, and you're never going to win 180 00:09:54.360 --> 00:09:56.200 the US title, and he yelled at him to get 181 00:09:56.200 --> 00:09:59.080 off his show because he didn't want to see him 182 00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:02.039 ever again. And at that point, Sammy informed him that 183 00:10:02.919 --> 00:10:05.799 he is now officially a member of the SmackDown roster. 184 00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:09.080 He didn't say how this all came about. It just happened. 185 00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:13.080 It just is he is now official. Not that it matters. 186 00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:14.960 It is kind of funny to have him come out 187 00:10:14.960 --> 00:10:18.559 here and say I'm officially on SmackDown now. It doesn't matter. 188 00:10:19.159 --> 00:10:21.440 People go back and forth at will. So does he 189 00:10:21.519 --> 00:10:23.320 really have to come out here and declare this is 190 00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:25.279 not the fucking airport. You don't have to come out 191 00:10:25.279 --> 00:10:27.960 here and declare stupid shit like this. That really doesn't 192 00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:31.039 mean anything. But according to sammy'saying, he is officially on 193 00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:34.399 SmackDown now. So Solo took something away from him, he said, 194 00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:36.519 and now Sammy was going to take something away from 195 00:10:36.559 --> 00:10:40.679 Solo in the form of the US title. Solo tried 196 00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:45.600 to strike Sammy, Sammy fought back, so the MFT stepped in. 197 00:10:45.639 --> 00:10:48.600 They delivered a beat down until Jimmy Usso ran out 198 00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:53.080 for the save. The MFTs still had the advantage, so 199 00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:56.840 they beat on him until Jacob Fati came out, even 200 00:10:56.879 --> 00:10:59.559 up the numbers a little bit more. The MFTs were 201 00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:04.320 forced to retreat, including all three Babyfaces, sending Talatanga out 202 00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:06.960 of the ring with a triple superkick. Nick All this 203 00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:09.200 came out at this point and he made it official 204 00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:11.960 for the main event that it would be sammys Ain, 205 00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:18.679 Jimmy Usso and Jacob Fatu taking on the MFTs in 206 00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:21.440 a six man tag team match. So we had the 207 00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:25.080 MFTs in the opening match, and now we were guaranteed 208 00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:29.399 to have the MFTs in the closing match. Another week, 209 00:11:29.639 --> 00:11:32.440 another show where Nick All this cannot be bothered to 210 00:11:32.480 --> 00:11:35.039 have a main event already scheduled before his show goes 211 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:39.720 on the air. Terrible, but it is nice that they 212 00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:43.000 acknowledge that Sammy's Ain at least has officially switched rosters, 213 00:11:43.240 --> 00:11:47.200 which honestly it's the right move to make, and effectively 214 00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:49.840 what has happened here. They have said nothing, by the 215 00:11:49.840 --> 00:11:52.759 way about La Night officially being on Raw, but La 216 00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:55.000 Night is officially on Raw. Now I don't know what 217 00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:57.360 the roster page I assume La Night is still listed 218 00:11:57.399 --> 00:12:00.799 on the SmackDown roster page on WWE dot com because 219 00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:04.960 they take their sweet time updating that website. Unless you 220 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:07.840 are released or your contract expires, Boy, they get you 221 00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.120 in that alumni section real quick, but sometimes it takes 222 00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:14.399 a while for them to update the roster pages. Basically, 223 00:12:14.399 --> 00:12:16.799 what's happened here is they had a one for one trade. 224 00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:19.639 Sammy' zain has been moved over to SmackDown. La Knight 225 00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:22.000 has been moved over to Raw, which is where he belongs. 226 00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.159 Remember I was calling for that move for months because 227 00:12:25.279 --> 00:12:27.480 La Knight is actually in the main event at Clash 228 00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:30.679 in Paris. He is wrestling for the World Heavyweight Championship again. 229 00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:33.679 He already challenged for the world title last week. If 230 00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:35.600 that doesn't make him a member of the raw roster, 231 00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:37.919 I don't know what does. And I also don't know 232 00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:40.960 why this was never acknowledged on television. I think it's 233 00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:43.879 a very lazy way to make roster moves, especially when 234 00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:46.440 you have two general managers. It would not take a 235 00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:49.960 lot of effort to set up a segment or two 236 00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:51.919 to make it very clear that there's some sort of 237 00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:54.440 trade or there's some sort of deal that's been struck. 238 00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:56.799 But again they can't be bothered because this is a 239 00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:01.639 lazy television, so things just happen. It doesn't have to 240 00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:05.399 be an explanation for it. It just is. It is 241 00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:08.600 the laziest form of storytelling you could possibly ask for. 242 00:13:08.879 --> 00:13:12.559 But there you go. That move is now official. Now 243 00:13:12.600 --> 00:13:15.639 interesting that Sammy is on SmackDown because again, his story 244 00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:17.919 is on the back burner for the World Heavyweight Championship 245 00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:22.399 right now or the WWE title I suppose. But just 246 00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:24.639 because he's on SmackDown does not mean that he cannot 247 00:13:24.679 --> 00:13:28.360 still challenge seth Rawlins at WrestleMania next year for the 248 00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:31.440 World Heavyweight Championship. I'm not saying he will, but it 249 00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:34.159 doesn't eliminate the possibility because if Samy's Ain goes to 250 00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:37.080 Saudi next year and he wins the Royal Rumble, or 251 00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:39.080 even if you were to win the Elimination Chamber, but 252 00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:41.080 more so if you won the Royal Rumble, I guess 253 00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:42.840 if you win the Chamber, he don't have a choice. 254 00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:46.519 You win the Rumble, you have the choice right of 255 00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:49.879 the champion that you would like to wrestle. So theoretically 256 00:13:49.919 --> 00:13:52.799 you could still do Samy's Ain challenging for the Big 257 00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:56.279 Gold Belt, or you could have Samy's Ain challenging for 258 00:13:56.320 --> 00:14:01.320 the WWE Championship. And remember he has a history with 259 00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:04.240 a certain someone on this show. That person is Drew McIntyre. 260 00:14:04.320 --> 00:14:08.519 Drew McIntyre is someone that Sammy's Ain has never ever 261 00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:12.279 been able to beat. Drew McIntyre is undefeated against Sammy's Ain. 262 00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:15.720 So if you wanted to tell that story next year, 263 00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:18.879 it's like killing two birds with one stone. Not only 264 00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:22.240 could Sammy finally get that elusive win over Drew McIntyre, 265 00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:24.639 but in so doing, he might be able to win 266 00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:28.200 the WWE Championship for the first time. So that's another 267 00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:31.440 potential story avenue for them to go down. Obviously, they're 268 00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:34.200 gonna revisit it because they keep drilling it into our 269 00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:36.679 heads that I want to be a world champion. I 270 00:14:36.679 --> 00:14:39.559 know I could be a world champion, but they had 271 00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:42.200 to pivot away to something else because it's too early 272 00:14:42.279 --> 00:14:44.960 to tell that story. So him going after the US 273 00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:47.840 title actually makes sense. But that was your opening segment 274 00:14:47.879 --> 00:14:54.200 here on this show. Now that led into Alexa Bliss, 275 00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:57.360 one half of the Women's Tag Team Champions with Charlotte 276 00:14:57.360 --> 00:15:00.159 Flair in her corner, taking on Piper Niven, who who 277 00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:03.840 had Chelsea Green and Alba Fire in hers By the way, 278 00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:05.919 I should point out they had a giant King of 279 00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:08.919 the Hill logo in the middle of the ring to 280 00:15:08.960 --> 00:15:13.240 promote the reboot. Bliss asked for a moment before the 281 00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:16.360 match to put her Lily doll aside, and that's when 282 00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:22.159 Piper bounced. She pounced, and she bounced. Bliss jumped on 283 00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:24.919 her back. She tried to apply a sleeper hoole. Niven 284 00:15:25.000 --> 00:15:27.639 broke the hold. She floored Bliss with a boss man 285 00:15:27.679 --> 00:15:31.080 slam that took us into a commercial break. Bliss took 286 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:34.000 advantage after she avoided a cannon ball in the corner. 287 00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:39.720 She hit Piper with repeated running moon salts. Niven regained 288 00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:43.960 momentum though with a headbutt. Bliss avoided the Vader bomb, 289 00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:46.639 and as she tried to head up top, Chelsea got 290 00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:50.120 up on the apron to run distraction. Charlotte, though stopped her, 291 00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:52.759 so Alba Fire got up on the apron. She got 292 00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:55.440 kicked away by Bliss, and in the end Bliss rolled 293 00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:58.279 up Piper and got the win, and after the match 294 00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:00.639 was over, Charlotte and Alexa they found themselves on the 295 00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:04.200 receiving end of a three on two attack from Chelsea 296 00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:08.759 and her secret herbsts. A decent enough match seems to 297 00:16:08.759 --> 00:16:12.080 set up a future tag team championship match for these two. 298 00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:17.879 It also it gives Chelsea's group a rare segment where 299 00:16:17.919 --> 00:16:19.960 they were not the ones to be laid out. They 300 00:16:20.000 --> 00:16:23.639 did the laying out, but I'd be lying if I 301 00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:26.679 told you that any of this was terribly exciting. Certainly 302 00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:30.559 Boston didn't think so. Backstage, nick All, this stood between 303 00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:35.159 Tiffany Stratton and Jade Cargill as they were bickering back 304 00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:40.320 and forth. Nia Jacks showed up, and as I mentioned earlier, 305 00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:43.799 she's been on NXT the last couple of weeks, and 306 00:16:43.879 --> 00:16:46.360 even before that, she hadn't been on SmackDown for a while. 307 00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:50.799 I honestly don't remember her doing anything after she lost 308 00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:53.960 that last woman's standing match to Tiffany Stratton. It's possible 309 00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:58.080 she wasn't on this show until tonight since then, but 310 00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:01.000 there she is. NYA took you she with Jade wanting 311 00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:05.000 a rematch for the women's title. Nya suggested that Jade 312 00:17:05.359 --> 00:17:08.839 fall back and let her take care of Tiffity Stratton. 313 00:17:09.319 --> 00:17:12.799 Jade said that she wouldn't fall back for anyone, and 314 00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:15.079 Stratton said that her facing Naya would end the same 315 00:17:15.119 --> 00:17:17.519 way it always does. She said that if she had 316 00:17:17.559 --> 00:17:20.200 to prove it to Jax before she proves it to Jade, 317 00:17:20.960 --> 00:17:25.400 they should both bring it. I can't believe that we're 318 00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:28.799 going back to this again. You know when I say 319 00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:31.160 that they are creatively bankrupt on this show, this is 320 00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:33.119 the sort of thing I'm talking about, and it is 321 00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:35.319 no more obvious than it is right now with a 322 00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:38.759 women's title scene on SmackDown. It is awful. It's just awful. 323 00:17:39.880 --> 00:17:42.480 And I'm not saying that Tiffity Stratton and Naya Jax 324 00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:45.480 didn't have some good matches. I'm not even commenting on 325 00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:49.480 the quality of the match. I'm saying, why are we 326 00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:51.680 going back to this again? Why does it feel like 327 00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:54.240 the car is going up the hill and now we're 328 00:17:54.359 --> 00:17:58.799 rolling backwards. That's what this show feels like, especially when 329 00:17:58.799 --> 00:18:05.799 it comes to this stuff. I don't understand that we 330 00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:10.920 had the Miz and Carmelo Hayes Mello don't Miss taking 331 00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:16.400 on phraxium. If you remember last week, Hayes was about 332 00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:19.599 to storm into Nick Aldo's office to demand a United 333 00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:23.119 States championship match, and the Mis was in there. All 334 00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:25.160 this wasn't in his office, but Mis was in there, 335 00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:27.720 and he stopped him from doing so and said, look, 336 00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:29.319 I went to Nick all this and I got us 337 00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:32.440 a tag team match for next week. Mello was like, 338 00:18:32.880 --> 00:18:34.599 where have you been? You've been gone for it because 339 00:18:34.640 --> 00:18:38.200 Mis was off filming American Gladiators, Like, where have you been? 340 00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:42.200 You abandoned me, been gone for two months. Miss is like, 341 00:18:42.240 --> 00:18:44.920 don't worry, I got us a match, and then Mello 342 00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:48.720 walked away. All this walked in and it was pretty 343 00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:51.440 clear that he lied to him and he actually had 344 00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:53.480 not yet asked for a tag team match. I guess 345 00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:55.480 he did after the facts. Anyway, that's what led to 346 00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:59.279 this match here, right, riveting stuff. So the match starts 347 00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:02.160 right away, the Miss is distracted. He looks up into 348 00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:05.519 the crowd and there's Joe Gacy up in the crowd 349 00:19:05.519 --> 00:19:08.799 with his tag team title belt. And then a couple 350 00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:11.440 of moments later they look up and there's Dexter Loomis 351 00:19:12.000 --> 00:19:14.119 in his Mercy the Buzzard mask and he's up in 352 00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:17.000 the crowd, and so they're both stalking and watching here. 353 00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:23.039 During this match, Mis was very perplexed by the speed 354 00:19:23.519 --> 00:19:26.880 of Nathan, Fraser quickly tagged out to let Carmelo Hayes 355 00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:29.720 deal with him. Phraxium ran wild for a little bit 356 00:19:29.720 --> 00:19:32.599 ahead of a commercial break. The show came back with 357 00:19:32.680 --> 00:19:37.200 Hayes in control on Axiom. Axiom countered and attempted power 358 00:19:37.240 --> 00:19:39.359 bomb with a hurt Kurana that got a near fall. 359 00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:43.440 Hayes finally connected with said power bomb, but he could 360 00:19:43.519 --> 00:19:46.400 not put Axiom away. Fraser got the hot tag. He 361 00:19:46.480 --> 00:19:50.559 went into supersonic speed mode, just ping ponging back and forth, 362 00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:53.400 and he took Mis down with the moon salt. Fraser 363 00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:55.720 looked for the Phoenix splash. Miz though rolled out of 364 00:19:55.759 --> 00:19:59.680 the way and or rolled away really is what he did. 365 00:20:00.079 --> 00:20:03.279 Hayes tagged in and he tried for a springboard attack. Fraser, 366 00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:06.880 though met him on the ropes. So Hayes is going 367 00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:08.799 for a springboard. He doesn't even make it off the 368 00:20:08.799 --> 00:20:11.640 middle rope before Fraser meets him, and then he pulls 369 00:20:11.720 --> 00:20:17.640 him off with a Spanish fly. So after Hayes kicked out, 370 00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:20.440 he tried to head up top Axium stunned him though 371 00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:23.680 with a kick. This open Hayes up for the Spanish fly. 372 00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:27.920 Phoenix splash combo from Phraxium. Mis broke up the count 373 00:20:27.960 --> 00:20:31.640 by stepping onto Fraser's back and then followed that right 374 00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:35.920 into a DDT on the top rope. Fraser hit Hayes 375 00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:38.119 with a jumping kick and then looked for a jumping 376 00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:41.720 Spanish fly with Axiom, but Miz stopped Axiom with a 377 00:20:41.799 --> 00:20:46.160 DDT on the apron. Back on top, Hayes countered Fraser 378 00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:49.240 with the top rope cutter, and so now Hayes's up 379 00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:52.359 top and he's looking for nothing but net and he's 380 00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:55.640 getting sheers from the crowd. So the crowd is into 381 00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:57.599 his offense and the crowd is ready to see him 382 00:20:57.640 --> 00:21:01.599 finish this guy off. And that's when the Mis selfishly 383 00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:08.920 tags himself into the match, and Hayes is just incredulous, 384 00:21:09.200 --> 00:21:13.119 can't believe this. And Mis gets into the ring and 385 00:21:13.160 --> 00:21:16.440 he hits a skull crushing finale and he gets the win. 386 00:21:16.599 --> 00:21:21.799 He stole the win from his own partner. And after 387 00:21:21.839 --> 00:21:25.279 the match is over, obviously Hayes is very disappointed. Miss 388 00:21:25.359 --> 00:21:28.359 is very happy. He's celebrating. He throws his arms around Hayes. 389 00:21:29.839 --> 00:21:32.119 Crowd was more into this match than you would think, 390 00:21:33.000 --> 00:21:35.839 more than most things frankly on this show, and we 391 00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:38.680 got good stuff here from these four, but Hayes looked 392 00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:41.680 really good, which we desperately need to see more of 393 00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:43.599 here on this show. You know, I used to mock 394 00:21:43.680 --> 00:21:46.240 and make fun of the fact that Mellow he was 395 00:21:46.279 --> 00:21:48.279 the number one draft I remember that last year. I'm 396 00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:51.240 the number one draft pick. Another reason why there never 397 00:21:51.319 --> 00:21:53.759 needs to be another draft. That's why I say it 398 00:21:53.799 --> 00:21:56.599 all the time. People still sometimes ask about the draft. 399 00:21:56.599 --> 00:21:58.240 Are they going to have a draft? When's the draft 400 00:21:58.279 --> 00:22:01.079 going to be? You don't need a draft when you 401 00:22:01.119 --> 00:22:04.240 are having Carmelo Hayes as you're a number one draft pick, 402 00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:05.759 and then you see what they did with him for 403 00:22:05.839 --> 00:22:08.680 the majority of this year. You don't need a fucking 404 00:22:08.759 --> 00:22:12.119 draft because when you treat the draft like a joke, 405 00:22:12.400 --> 00:22:15.279 there's no need to do one. So from the moment 406 00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:18.400 he was drafted to this show, they have dropped the 407 00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:20.880 ball on him repeatedly. And then he won the Andre 408 00:22:21.000 --> 00:22:23.880 the Giant Memorial Battle Royal right where he was walking 409 00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:27.640 around with Dre the necklace. Where did that go? Where 410 00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:32.599 did that take him? Nowhere? Absolutely nowhere. So it's about 411 00:22:32.640 --> 00:22:35.519 time that we start to see him focused on more 412 00:22:35.559 --> 00:22:38.160 on this show and letting him go out there and 413 00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:40.839 do what he does best. He was getting himself over 414 00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:44.960 in this match just by wrestling. Sometimes that's all you 415 00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:46.839 need to do. You don't have to reinvent the wheel. 416 00:22:47.160 --> 00:22:49.440 You have to have a good story behind it. Now, 417 00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:51.640 the story they're telling with him and Miss is very basic. 418 00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:53.599 It's very basic and very simple, but it can be 419 00:22:53.720 --> 00:22:56.359 very effective. This is the kind of role that Miss 420 00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:58.400 is very good in. That's why I say he's the 421 00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:00.720 best utility player they have on the roster. You can 422 00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:03.000 plug him in anywhere you need him. But he's a 423 00:23:03.079 --> 00:23:05.519 veteran guy. He could be a babyface, he could be 424 00:23:05.519 --> 00:23:07.359 a heel, he could be a comedy figure, he could 425 00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:10.440 be more serious. They're using him here in this situation 426 00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:13.319 to help get Carmelo Hayes over as a baby face. 427 00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:16.839 That is what I got out of this, And this 428 00:23:17.000 --> 00:23:19.119 is just the first step in the story that they 429 00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:21.160 were telling with these two. Now, there was a segment 430 00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:23.640 later on in the show, because again the story here 431 00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:28.960 was Miss stealing his glory, stealing his thunder away from him. 432 00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:31.119 But later in the back, Nick All this was speaking 433 00:23:31.119 --> 00:23:33.880 to the MotorCity machine Guns. I would hope that the 434 00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:36.319 machine Guns were there, asking him why did you fly 435 00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:38.480 us into work if you had no match for us? 436 00:23:40.200 --> 00:23:41.920 I don't know. We couldn't really pick up what the 437 00:23:42.000 --> 00:23:46.839 nature of their conversation was, but as they're talking, we 438 00:23:46.920 --> 00:23:49.799 had Carmelo Hayes walk in. He interrupted, he wanted to 439 00:23:49.799 --> 00:23:50.880 know what do I need to do to get a 440 00:23:50.880 --> 00:23:55.400 shot at the United States Championship. Mis interjected, he apologize, 441 00:23:55.400 --> 00:23:59.640 I apologize for my partner, and Carmelo's like, no, no, 442 00:23:59.720 --> 00:24:02.960 don't apologize for me. And MS is like, no, no, mister, 443 00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:06.799 all this very sorry about this now. Chris Saban took 444 00:24:06.839 --> 00:24:09.680 offense because MS made a comment about how I know 445 00:24:09.680 --> 00:24:13.160 you weren't doing anything obviously that he was having a 446 00:24:13.160 --> 00:24:18.599 conversation with the machine guns. So Saban said that, you 447 00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:21.759 know what. He also brought up that Miz has been 448 00:24:21.799 --> 00:24:25.960 manipulating Carmelo Hayes, and Sabin looks at Hayes and he goes, 449 00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:31.119 are you him or are you his pointing to the Miz. 450 00:24:32.119 --> 00:24:35.079 So this led to all this scheduling the machine Guns 451 00:24:35.119 --> 00:24:37.720 to take on Carmelo Hayes and the Miz on next 452 00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:42.160 week's show. So again it's a very simple story here. 453 00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:45.000 Carmelo Hayes is the kind of guy that you need 454 00:24:45.000 --> 00:24:49.160 to promote that you need to put some of your 455 00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:52.000 muscle behind. If you are going to push him, then 456 00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:55.000 push him. If you think he's a number one draft pick, 457 00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:58.240 then prove it. Let him go out there and let 458 00:24:58.359 --> 00:25:01.319 him do what he does. Give him the opportunity to 459 00:25:01.319 --> 00:25:03.440 get over. He will either get over or he won't 460 00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:06.519 get over. He was already getting over tonight in this 461 00:25:06.559 --> 00:25:09.160 one match on a show where there wasn't a whole 462 00:25:09.200 --> 00:25:12.400 lot that felt like it was getting over. So I 463 00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:15.119 don't care what your opinion is of Carmelo Hayes. Carmelo 464 00:25:15.200 --> 00:25:18.000 Hayes is a super talented guy. Did very well for 465 00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:20.880 himself an NXT. He's not the biggest guy in the world, 466 00:25:20.920 --> 00:25:24.279 but he's got a lot of talent, and there's potential 467 00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:27.480 for him to be so much more than he is 468 00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:32.319 right now. Certainly someone out a United States Championship level, 469 00:25:32.359 --> 00:25:34.759 I would say so. And where he goes from there, 470 00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:38.559 who knows. But to not even give him the opportunity 471 00:25:38.599 --> 00:25:40.279 and to just have him sitting in the back and 472 00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:44.559 sitting on the back burner for over a year like 473 00:25:44.599 --> 00:25:46.359 it doesn't make any sense to me. Why you call 474 00:25:46.440 --> 00:25:48.480 these people up if you don't intend to use them 475 00:25:48.519 --> 00:25:52.279 to their full potential. I mean, he wasn't some schlub 476 00:25:52.599 --> 00:25:56.920 in NXT. He's a former NXT champion, hasn't been treated 477 00:25:57.000 --> 00:26:00.559 like one on the main roster. So when did he 478 00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:04.200 get drafted? Was that May of last year's August of 479 00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:07.400 twenty twenty five. It's about time they try something with 480 00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:11.440 this guy. One of the few positives about this show. Tonight, 481 00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:18.519 at backstage, Tiffany Stratton was approached by Keanna James, who 482 00:26:18.559 --> 00:26:21.160 offered her services, including the benefit of Oh You get 483 00:26:21.240 --> 00:26:26.240 your own custom Pink World Championship. Stratton refused her services 484 00:26:27.039 --> 00:26:30.759 and then she walked off. Mitchen then appeared and said 485 00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:34.400 that she had Julia next, and Keanu said that this 486 00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:40.319 was under advisement. That was the last we saw of 487 00:26:40.400 --> 00:26:45.400 Tiffany Stratton on this show. Joe Tessitur updated us from 488 00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:47.960 ringside and said there was no medical update on the 489 00:26:47.960 --> 00:26:53.079 condition of the WWE champion Cody Rhodes after the vicious, 490 00:26:53.400 --> 00:26:55.920 heinous attack at the end of last week's show by 491 00:26:56.000 --> 00:27:02.079 Drew MacIntyre when he kicked him into the announced desk. 492 00:27:04.279 --> 00:27:08.599 I mean, they went way over the top this week. 493 00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:11.039 To make it feel like we might not see Cody 494 00:27:11.119 --> 00:27:12.960 Rhoads for a while. We don't even have a medical 495 00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:14.920 update on this guy. He could be fucking dead for 496 00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:18.680 all we know, because Drew McIntyre gave him Acclaymore a 497 00:27:18.759 --> 00:27:21.240 kick through the bottom part of the announced disk. Oh no, 498 00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:25.039 so yeah, no medical update on him, but that led 499 00:27:25.079 --> 00:27:27.960 into Drew McIntyre coming to the ring for a promo. 500 00:27:29.119 --> 00:27:31.359 So well, actually, I mean, look, at least we had 501 00:27:31.559 --> 00:27:34.240 a top name on this show who actually was on 502 00:27:34.279 --> 00:27:37.599 the show tonight and showed up to work. McIntyre talked 503 00:27:37.599 --> 00:27:40.519 about people asking why he did what he did last 504 00:27:40.519 --> 00:27:44.240 week to the WWE champion. He asked for the clip 505 00:27:44.279 --> 00:27:47.440 to be replayed again, which brought a smile to his face. 506 00:27:47.920 --> 00:27:51.400 McIntyre asked us to listen closely as he said that 507 00:27:51.440 --> 00:27:56.559 apparently he did not attack Cody Rhoads. He then asked 508 00:27:56.640 --> 00:27:59.200 Joe Testitor about a medical update on Rhoads and how 509 00:27:59.359 --> 00:28:02.799 very strange it is that we haven't heard anything, and 510 00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:06.160 he said that he started ranting about management hiding Cody's 511 00:28:06.160 --> 00:28:10.240 medical condition. McIntyre said that he wasn't mad at Cody, 512 00:28:10.279 --> 00:28:12.440 but rather he felt sorry for him because of how 513 00:28:12.519 --> 00:28:14.160 much he put the weight of the fans and the 514 00:28:14.160 --> 00:28:17.799 weight of management on his shoulders. McIntyre noted that he 515 00:28:17.880 --> 00:28:21.480 was once in Cody's position, but he moved on. Afterwards, 516 00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:25.440 he noted that Cody was nothing without his story, and 517 00:28:25.480 --> 00:28:28.279 he said that he actually didn't attack Cody at all 518 00:28:28.359 --> 00:28:30.400 last week. In fact, it was the other way around. 519 00:28:30.400 --> 00:28:33.720 Cody attacked him. And at that point he walked us 520 00:28:33.759 --> 00:28:36.920 through what happened. He went spot by spot what happened 521 00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:39.400 on the show the previous week in the main event. 522 00:28:40.079 --> 00:28:42.759 He even went outside the ring to illustrate. He threw 523 00:28:42.799 --> 00:28:45.400 me here, then he threw me into the post. So 524 00:28:45.480 --> 00:28:48.240 he's taking us step by side. I'm watching JFK here. 525 00:28:48.920 --> 00:28:52.000 Step by step. He's showing us what happened, putting his 526 00:28:52.039 --> 00:28:54.160 own spin on it. And he noted that he only 527 00:28:54.200 --> 00:28:57.279 defended himself and that while Cody was good at pissing 528 00:28:57.319 --> 00:28:59.720 people off, McIntyre said he was very good at taking 529 00:28:59.720 --> 00:29:03.880 people out. And Drew said that he's not a bad guy, 530 00:29:03.920 --> 00:29:07.200 but he will do very violent things if provoked. If 531 00:29:07.200 --> 00:29:11.440 you provoke me, I'm the real nightmare. And then he 532 00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:14.160 tossed the microphone down and McIntyre looked into the camera 533 00:29:14.200 --> 00:29:18.880 and he told Cody to get better soon. Again, the 534 00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:22.720 way they're making this Claymore out to be something so 535 00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:27.440 devastating that we need to have medical updates on Cody 536 00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:30.759 Rhodes was a little over the top because really, I mean, 537 00:29:30.759 --> 00:29:32.519 if you go back and watch it, it was a cool 538 00:29:32.640 --> 00:29:35.240 visual in the moment, but really, what did he do? 539 00:29:35.279 --> 00:29:37.359 You know what I mean? What did this man do? 540 00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:40.720 Maybe I'm just like I'm at a point where everyone's 541 00:29:40.759 --> 00:29:43.359 finishing move has been kicked out of so many times 542 00:29:44.079 --> 00:29:46.759 that when you hit your finishing move on somebody, like 543 00:29:46.880 --> 00:29:48.640 unless you hit your finishing move on the guy and 544 00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:50.839 you knock him off of like a ten foot stage 545 00:29:51.400 --> 00:29:53.759 or you knock him into a pit of needles or 546 00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:57.279 something awful like that, Like really, who cares? You know 547 00:29:57.319 --> 00:29:59.000 what I mean? Like it's not that big of a deal, 548 00:29:59.279 --> 00:30:00.960 but they're trying to make it like a big deal. 549 00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:03.839 Cody might be gone for a while. There was no 550 00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:06.759 challenge issued here, There was no mention of Paris, there 551 00:30:06.759 --> 00:30:09.519 was no mention of I'll see you for the WWE Championship. 552 00:30:09.960 --> 00:30:13.200 Obviously that's where we're going with this. I still think 553 00:30:13.240 --> 00:30:16.319 it's gonna happen in Paris. I wouldn't be shocked to 554 00:30:16.319 --> 00:30:18.680 see Cody Beck on the show next week. I've heard 555 00:30:18.680 --> 00:30:20.599 nothing about whether or not Cody has gone off to 556 00:30:20.640 --> 00:30:24.480 film Street Fighter. I mean, maybe he has. If he has, 557 00:30:24.519 --> 00:30:27.200 he's going to be gone for a few weeks. Last 558 00:30:27.200 --> 00:30:29.000 report I saw was that he wasn't going to miss 559 00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:31.440 as much time as Roman Reigns. Roman Reigns is supposed 560 00:30:31.440 --> 00:30:34.200 to be out from September second until September twenty sixth, 561 00:30:35.400 --> 00:30:38.400 so that's almost a full month. Does that mean Cody 562 00:30:38.440 --> 00:30:40.880 is only filming for two weeks? Does he have a 563 00:30:40.920 --> 00:30:44.559 cameo in this movie? He might not even have any 564 00:30:44.559 --> 00:30:47.279 dialogue in this movie. So I don't know. I don't 565 00:30:47.279 --> 00:30:48.839 know what his status is. I don't know if he's 566 00:30:48.839 --> 00:30:52.359 off filming yet. Maybe he'll be on the show next week. 567 00:30:53.039 --> 00:30:55.880 Maybe he'll be on the show the following week. But 568 00:30:55.960 --> 00:30:58.519 Clash in Paris is on August thirty first, very end 569 00:30:58.559 --> 00:31:00.240 of the month. If he's not on the Sho show 570 00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:03.000 next week, that makes it a hell of a lot 571 00:31:03.079 --> 00:31:05.240 less likely they're going to put that title match together 572 00:31:05.279 --> 00:31:09.400 in one week's time. Now, there's always the unannounced ple 573 00:31:09.799 --> 00:31:12.440 on September twenty. If the WWE is going to be adding, 574 00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:14.400 so they could always do the match there, but I'm 575 00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:17.240 gonna I'm gonna assume that we'll get this title match 576 00:31:17.279 --> 00:31:21.319 in Paris, but if we do, we didn't hear anything 577 00:31:21.319 --> 00:31:25.000 about it tonight. Matti says it cannot be called a 578 00:31:25.000 --> 00:31:29.160 finisher anymore. There really is no real finisher anymore. Is 579 00:31:29.200 --> 00:31:31.480 there is there a finishing move in wrestling that you 580 00:31:31.480 --> 00:31:36.759 can think of right now today, WWE or AW that 581 00:31:36.839 --> 00:31:41.519 truly nobody ever kicks out of, like maybe once, but 582 00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:45.960 I mean like it is protected. Like it's a very 583 00:31:46.000 --> 00:31:49.000 short list. I think of the one winged Angel right 584 00:31:49.039 --> 00:31:52.920 when Kenny Omega hits it Seamus and the brokick is 585 00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:58.200 still very protected. What else are there any other moves 586 00:31:59.440 --> 00:32:02.119 that you would put on that list? It's a very 587 00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:09.440 short list. I can't think of too many. So in 588 00:32:09.480 --> 00:32:14.119 the back Byron Saxton spoke with the Street Prophets and 589 00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:18.720 BFAB before they could answer his question, Solo in the MFTs, 590 00:32:18.839 --> 00:32:21.039 my god, I said they were all over the show. 591 00:32:22.000 --> 00:32:27.160 They were all over this show, all over like a 592 00:32:27.200 --> 00:32:31.640 sexually transmitted disease. So they walk into the camera shot 593 00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:35.440 Solo says that we're going to be the ones taking 594 00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:39.400 the tag team titles from the Wyat Six, Angelo Dawkins 595 00:32:39.400 --> 00:32:41.480 and Montese Ford. They made fun of them a little bit, 596 00:32:41.599 --> 00:32:44.759 and they remind everybody that they still want the smoke. 597 00:32:46.200 --> 00:32:48.599 You know, they've been saying this for five years now, 598 00:32:49.119 --> 00:32:51.039 that they want the smoke. It's very bad for your health. 599 00:32:51.960 --> 00:32:55.480 Should probably stay away from the smoke, although I guess 600 00:32:55.480 --> 00:32:57.319 it depends what kind of smoke we're talking about here. 601 00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:02.960 Taalatango was acting very distracted by something. They're like, are 602 00:33:02.960 --> 00:33:06.440 you okay? He's like yeah, And then the MFTs walked away. 603 00:33:06.480 --> 00:33:08.799 But then we saw off in the distance in the background, 604 00:33:08.880 --> 00:33:12.160 lurking in the shadows in his in his mask is 605 00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:16.160 that's the rabbit mask? Right is Eric Rowan of the 606 00:33:16.200 --> 00:33:22.200 Wyatt Six. He's got the giant hammer the mallet with him. 607 00:33:22.240 --> 00:33:25.680 So that led into the street profits against Johnny Gargano 608 00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:34.359 and Tam Tamaso Champa Jackhammer. I'm you can't name moves 609 00:33:34.400 --> 00:33:37.759 from thirty years ago. I'm talking about modern day wrestling, 610 00:33:37.839 --> 00:33:43.680 modern day WWE and AW you're all naming look at 611 00:33:43.680 --> 00:33:48.079 this BONZEI drop. You're all naming old move U Let's 612 00:33:48.119 --> 00:33:51.680 you're talking about Naya Jacks. But I've seen people a 613 00:33:51.720 --> 00:33:55.279 couple of times kick out from from Nya's bonzai, the 614 00:33:55.279 --> 00:34:02.519 insane elbow. Maybe Black Matt, black Mess. That's a good one. 615 00:34:03.279 --> 00:34:07.640 I accept packs finisher. Yeah, my gud, where's he been? 616 00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:11.400 It's always hurt poor Pack. But when Pack hits the 617 00:34:11.400 --> 00:34:15.039 black arrow, usually you don't kick out from that. That 618 00:34:15.199 --> 00:34:20.960 is true. So the street profits against diy Stop me 619 00:34:21.000 --> 00:34:24.760 if you've heard this before. Montes Ford avoided a chop 620 00:34:24.800 --> 00:34:28.320 block from Champa. He tagged in Angelo Dawkins outside the ring. 621 00:34:28.400 --> 00:34:31.480 Candace Larray got herself involved. That allowed Champa to catch 622 00:34:31.559 --> 00:34:34.559 Dawkins with a kick. So the action picked up. After 623 00:34:34.599 --> 00:34:37.800 the commercial, Montes Sward with a high cross body from 624 00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:40.800 the top on Shampa. The Profits set up for their 625 00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:44.760 double team blockbuster on Tomaso Champa when Candice Larray ran 626 00:34:44.800 --> 00:34:48.599 over and shoved BFAB into the ring steps, which caused 627 00:34:48.639 --> 00:34:53.000 a distraction. From there, diy rallied Gargano had Ford pinned 628 00:34:53.119 --> 00:34:56.760 until Dawkins broke it up. Short time later. Gargano went 629 00:34:56.800 --> 00:34:59.440 for a suicide died, but Ford caught him before he 630 00:34:59.440 --> 00:35:02.320 could actually come through the ropes. It was either a 631 00:35:02.360 --> 00:35:05.079 punch or an uppercut. I think it was a punch, 632 00:35:05.920 --> 00:35:09.599 so that stopped him inish tracks and at that point 633 00:35:10.519 --> 00:35:14.000 we had Candace Loray. She jumped from the top rope 634 00:35:14.400 --> 00:35:17.280 and she nailed. They heard Conrana to montes Ford, which 635 00:35:17.320 --> 00:35:20.440 sent him off the apron, crashing into Angelo Dawkins on 636 00:35:20.480 --> 00:35:23.199 the floor. Gargano got forward back in the ring and 637 00:35:23.280 --> 00:35:27.239 ddted him before covering him only for two b fab. 638 00:35:27.320 --> 00:35:30.280 At this point she recovered. She threw a very clunky 639 00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:33.960 looking actually it looked like a brokick on the outside 640 00:35:33.960 --> 00:35:37.039 of Candace. Dawkins hit sky high in the ring on 641 00:35:37.159 --> 00:35:40.480 Champa and then montes Ford followed up with a top 642 00:35:40.599 --> 00:35:44.880 rope frog splash and Dawkins covered Champa for the win. 643 00:35:46.199 --> 00:35:48.840 Solid stuff here, I mean, I feel like these two teams, 644 00:35:48.920 --> 00:35:52.639 they've worked together so many times, this basic match, and 645 00:35:52.679 --> 00:35:54.360 that's what it was. It was a basic match. But 646 00:35:54.440 --> 00:35:56.320 this basic match they had here. They could have this 647 00:35:56.440 --> 00:36:00.559 match in their sleep, right, because they're great. They've worked 648 00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:05.360 together so many times for them, this was easy. But 649 00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:07.599 I'm tired of seeing it. How many times are we 650 00:36:07.639 --> 00:36:09.719 going to see the same two fucking teams over and 651 00:36:09.760 --> 00:36:14.679 over again. How many times have we seen DIY in 652 00:36:14.719 --> 00:36:18.719 the street profits this year more times than I can count. 653 00:36:20.519 --> 00:36:23.599 So even this tag team division, which has for the 654 00:36:23.639 --> 00:36:27.320 better part of the year I would say honestly been 655 00:36:27.360 --> 00:36:29.800 the hottest part of the show, and they went out 656 00:36:29.800 --> 00:36:32.400 there at SummerSlam, they had that incredible tables, ladders and 657 00:36:32.440 --> 00:36:34.400 shares match, and it's like they didn't have any plan 658 00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:37.280 to really follow up on it. The Wyatt Six retain 659 00:36:37.360 --> 00:36:40.480 their titles. Everybody is still chasing them, but it's the 660 00:36:40.519 --> 00:36:43.360 same teams going at it every single week, and there's 661 00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:47.480 not enough variety here in the story to justify rematching 662 00:36:47.519 --> 00:36:49.639 these people over and over again. Now what they can 663 00:36:49.679 --> 00:36:52.880 do is they can run this back again, but this 664 00:36:52.920 --> 00:36:54.840 time throw the ladies in there and have a six 665 00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:57.719 person tag match, have Candice and Befab get involved. That's 666 00:36:57.719 --> 00:36:59.840 about all they can do. Otherwise, I'd like to see 667 00:36:59.840 --> 00:37:03.880 them go their separate ways and try something different. I mean, 668 00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:05.800 you're probably run into the same issue with a lot 669 00:37:05.840 --> 00:37:07.960 of the other teams because they've all been feuding with 670 00:37:08.039 --> 00:37:11.199 each other all year long, So it's just a matter 671 00:37:11.239 --> 00:37:14.159 of finding the right story. The story is that they're 672 00:37:14.159 --> 00:37:16.360 all trying to take the belts from the wy At Six, 673 00:37:16.760 --> 00:37:19.400 and even the Wyat's Six right now is not terribly interesting. 674 00:37:21.719 --> 00:37:24.000 So they're still trying to convince us that the Tag 675 00:37:24.000 --> 00:37:26.239 team division is red hot. I think that's what Joe 676 00:37:26.239 --> 00:37:29.440 Tessitour said at one point. It's red hot. It was 677 00:37:29.559 --> 00:37:33.960 red hot. It's not red hot anymore. It's starting to 678 00:37:34.039 --> 00:37:37.639 run on fumes. So maybe they need to call a 679 00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:40.320 new team up from NXT and inject some new blood 680 00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:44.159 into the division, right You drop a new face in there. 681 00:37:44.199 --> 00:37:49.519 Sometimes that's all it takes. But there's nothing story wise 682 00:37:49.599 --> 00:37:52.320 that's compelling about seeing these teams over and over again 683 00:37:52.400 --> 00:37:58.840 like this. We got a video package recapping the events 684 00:37:58.880 --> 00:38:01.719 that led up to John's and Logan Paul taking place 685 00:38:01.760 --> 00:38:05.079 at Clash from Paris, sina Is back on the show, 686 00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:07.719 by the way, next week in Dublin. That's gonna be 687 00:38:07.719 --> 00:38:11.440 the first time ever that they have had television in Dublin, Ireland. 688 00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:15.639 I certainly hope they give the Dublin fans something more 689 00:38:16.079 --> 00:38:19.280 interesting and exciting than they've given them the last two weeks, 690 00:38:19.679 --> 00:38:23.159 because they've never had television before. I would certainly hope 691 00:38:23.159 --> 00:38:26.920 they get a really good show next week. I'm already 692 00:38:26.960 --> 00:38:29.639 I'm already wondering what songs they're gonna be singing, because 693 00:38:29.639 --> 00:38:32.480 you know they're gonna be singing some kind of song. 694 00:38:33.119 --> 00:38:34.760 I don't know if they'll come up with something new. 695 00:38:35.239 --> 00:38:39.400 You want a great Irish tune makes me think of Sinners. 696 00:38:40.559 --> 00:38:44.079 I can't get that song out of my head. So 697 00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:47.000 in the back Byron Saxton then spoke with our Truth, 698 00:38:47.760 --> 00:38:49.920 who looked like he had little Jimmy back with him. 699 00:38:49.960 --> 00:38:52.280 I saw he was like motioning. I thought he was 700 00:38:52.320 --> 00:38:54.920 like motioning for a little Jimmy. I'm like, oh my god, 701 00:38:55.920 --> 00:38:59.400 we're back to this again. We had a promising direction 702 00:38:59.519 --> 00:39:01.519 with this man, and we're back to this shit. Right. 703 00:39:01.519 --> 00:39:05.280 So I'm watching this and Truth is acting like his 704 00:39:05.360 --> 00:39:09.800 old goofy self. When Alistair Black walks up and Black 705 00:39:09.840 --> 00:39:12.880 asked if Truth is this excited for his other friend, 706 00:39:13.519 --> 00:39:17.400 Damian Priest. Truth all of a sudden got serious and 707 00:39:17.400 --> 00:39:19.800 he got up in Black's face and he asked how 708 00:39:19.840 --> 00:39:23.280 Black is going to tell him who he is. Black says, 709 00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:26.679 there you are, mister Killings. I'll see you next week, 710 00:39:27.679 --> 00:39:30.639 and he walked off. So it looks like they're leaning 711 00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:34.280 into Truth maybe having like a split personality gimmick where 712 00:39:34.280 --> 00:39:36.760 he'll go back and forth between goofy truth and more 713 00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:40.559 serious truth like Our Truth and Ron Killings. That's at 714 00:39:40.639 --> 00:39:42.719 least better than just having him revert back to the 715 00:39:42.719 --> 00:39:45.199 same shit he was doing before. Just because John Sena 716 00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:47.920 no longer is a heel, that doesn't mean that, you know, 717 00:39:48.079 --> 00:39:50.039 Our Truth has to go back to doing the same 718 00:39:50.119 --> 00:39:54.400 bland stuff that he was doing previously. This could work. 719 00:39:55.440 --> 00:39:58.360 At least we'll still have some of that serious side 720 00:39:58.400 --> 00:40:02.199 of him. That's my hope. And but their match is official. 721 00:40:02.199 --> 00:40:06.119 They'll be wrestling in Dublin next week. Elsewhere in the back, 722 00:40:06.960 --> 00:40:11.519 Sammy's ay, Jacob fought to Jimmy Usso they're in the 723 00:40:11.559 --> 00:40:14.519 locker room, they're getting ready for the main event. Sammy 724 00:40:14.559 --> 00:40:18.679 thanked Jacob for saving him. Earlier, Jacob was sitting down right, 725 00:40:18.840 --> 00:40:21.840 Sammy and Jimmy were all chummy. Sammy's like, man, it's 726 00:40:21.840 --> 00:40:23.119 been a long time. What was the last time of 727 00:40:23.159 --> 00:40:25.320 you and I tagged right, And Jimmy's like, oh, it's 728 00:40:25.320 --> 00:40:29.559 been a minute. Jacob's just sitting there all stoic. So, 729 00:40:29.639 --> 00:40:31.639 like I said, Sammy thanks him for saving him. Now 730 00:40:31.719 --> 00:40:33.480 Jacob gets up in his face and goes, I didn't 731 00:40:33.519 --> 00:40:36.480 save you, I saved him. He's my brother. I don't 732 00:40:36.480 --> 00:40:40.159 even know you, and Sammy pointed out, he goes, well, 733 00:40:40.280 --> 00:40:44.559 he's my brother too, and if you're cool with him, 734 00:40:44.679 --> 00:40:48.840 then you're cool with me, are we good? And Jacob 735 00:40:48.880 --> 00:40:51.960 looked at Sammy and said, or Jimmy rather un told Jimmy, 736 00:40:51.960 --> 00:40:55.760 make sure he doesn't get in my way, and then 737 00:40:55.800 --> 00:40:59.320 he goes yadamen and he left and Sammy's like, YadA 738 00:40:59.400 --> 00:41:04.400 mean was that? So that was that? And that led 739 00:41:04.440 --> 00:41:07.280 into our main event, which was Sammy's A and Jimmy 740 00:41:07.360 --> 00:41:13.840 Uso and Jacob Fatu against the MFTs Solo Socoa Togaloa 741 00:41:14.519 --> 00:41:21.320 and Jace Matteo. Yata mean mattel. How do you spell that? 742 00:41:21.360 --> 00:41:25.280 By the way, so y a d A m e 743 00:41:25.360 --> 00:41:27.400 A n is that? How is that how we're spelling it? 744 00:41:29.480 --> 00:41:32.639 Jace Matteo. He used his strength to run Sammy into 745 00:41:32.679 --> 00:41:37.000 the heel corner as Togaloa entered the match, the Great Tongaloa. 746 00:41:37.760 --> 00:41:40.760 He threw Sammy outside. He caused a distraction so that 747 00:41:40.800 --> 00:41:43.719 Talla Tonga can mow him down with a big boot. 748 00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:49.239 That took us into a commercial after commercial after commercial, 749 00:41:50.079 --> 00:41:52.880 Fatu took a hot tag after the commercial and he 750 00:41:52.960 --> 00:41:56.039 walked uh he walked all over all three men. Fa 751 00:41:56.079 --> 00:41:58.320 Tou held the top rope down while Jimmy dove over 752 00:41:58.360 --> 00:42:00.199 it and onto j C. Mitteo on the floor or 753 00:42:00.800 --> 00:42:03.280 Fatu then put down Tongalow with a pop up, samo 754 00:42:03.440 --> 00:42:06.639 and drop, and then Fatu went up top and he 755 00:42:06.679 --> 00:42:10.039 had initially kicked Solo away because Solo came over. Then 756 00:42:10.039 --> 00:42:12.320 he went for a swanton bomb as he came down, 757 00:42:12.320 --> 00:42:17.280 though Tongaloa got the knees up. Solo tagged in hit 758 00:42:17.280 --> 00:42:20.239 a top rope splash on Fa Tu, but only for 759 00:42:20.400 --> 00:42:24.320 a near fall. So Jacob reluctantly tagged out because he 760 00:42:24.719 --> 00:42:26.800 was in need of help and he's looking up and 761 00:42:26.920 --> 00:42:29.639 Sammy wants the tag, so he reluctantly makes the tag. 762 00:42:29.760 --> 00:42:32.280 Sammy comes in, he drops Solo with a blue thunderbomb, 763 00:42:32.320 --> 00:42:35.519 but pin got broken up. The match broke down. At 764 00:42:35.519 --> 00:42:38.079 that point. Jacob took Tallatanga off the apron with a 765 00:42:38.119 --> 00:42:40.960 super kick, and then Jacob dove threw the ropes out 766 00:42:40.960 --> 00:42:43.440 of the ring into Tallatanga, which knocked the big guy 767 00:42:43.519 --> 00:42:45.599 over the announced desk and took him out of the picture. 768 00:42:46.519 --> 00:42:48.840 Back inside, Sammy dropped Solo in the corner with an 769 00:42:48.840 --> 00:42:52.360 exploder and then he connected on a halluva kick, and 770 00:42:52.400 --> 00:42:54.559 for the second week in a row, Sammy Zan got 771 00:42:54.599 --> 00:42:57.960 the drop on the United States Champion. He pinned Solo 772 00:42:58.199 --> 00:43:01.280 Sokoa and then after the match was over, Jimmy hugged, 773 00:43:01.320 --> 00:43:03.519 fought too and Sammy and then motion for the two 774 00:43:03.519 --> 00:43:06.679 of them to come together. Jacob was a little hesitant 775 00:43:06.719 --> 00:43:09.559 at first, but then fought too when Sammy shook hands 776 00:43:09.559 --> 00:43:12.320 and they hugged and the baby Faces celebrated to close 777 00:43:12.320 --> 00:43:18.400 out the show. If we get if we get Sammy's 778 00:43:18.440 --> 00:43:22.679 ain't against Solo Soco in Paris for the United States Championship. 779 00:43:23.239 --> 00:43:27.480 I'm assuming the well where is SmackDown? Actually, I don't know. 780 00:43:29.239 --> 00:43:33.039 I don't know if SmackDown the Friday before is also 781 00:43:33.079 --> 00:43:37.599 in Paris or maybe Leon. It's possible that if they 782 00:43:37.639 --> 00:43:39.599 do a US title match between them, which I mean 783 00:43:39.639 --> 00:43:42.440 obviously they're gonna do it, that they'll do it on TV. 784 00:43:43.079 --> 00:43:45.280 I would think that match, though it's a title match. 785 00:43:46.280 --> 00:43:49.920 I also think that, you know, being being in Paris 786 00:43:50.039 --> 00:43:54.880 and Sammy's French Canadian, isn't he well? Is he French Canadian? 787 00:43:54.920 --> 00:43:58.039 I don't know. Kevin Owens is French Canadian, but I'm 788 00:43:58.039 --> 00:44:00.480 sure Sammy is gonna get a great reaction there. I 789 00:44:00.519 --> 00:44:04.039 would have it on the actual main card. I don't 790 00:44:04.039 --> 00:44:07.760 know if they will or not. But the point is 791 00:44:08.119 --> 00:44:10.360 the fact that Sammy's Ain has now pinned the United 792 00:44:10.360 --> 00:44:13.480 States Champion twice in a row does not bode well 793 00:44:13.519 --> 00:44:17.199 for his chances of actually winning the title. And I 794 00:44:17.239 --> 00:44:19.519 agree with that as much as it pains me to 795 00:44:19.559 --> 00:44:22.519 say it that when they meet Solo, Soukoa is going 796 00:44:22.559 --> 00:44:25.880 to beat Sammy's Ain because Sammy's Ain literally tonight on 797 00:44:25.920 --> 00:44:28.159 this show just announced that, Hey, guess what I'm on 798 00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:31.880 SmackDown now. I would not immediately wrap a belt around 799 00:44:31.920 --> 00:44:34.679 his waist. Right, take a little bit of time, even 800 00:44:34.679 --> 00:44:37.159 if it's just one more show, one more month, before 801 00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:40.280 you put the title on him. You don't have to 802 00:44:40.280 --> 00:44:43.480 put it on him right away, right, tell that story, 803 00:44:43.639 --> 00:44:46.599 let him struggle for it a little bit. It looks 804 00:44:46.639 --> 00:44:48.440 to me like the end result will likely be him 805 00:44:48.480 --> 00:44:51.159 getting the United States Championship. But I wouldn't be doing 806 00:44:51.199 --> 00:44:53.760 it in their first match. So whenever that match happens, 807 00:44:53.800 --> 00:44:57.199 I'm just saying I don't think there'll be a title change, 808 00:44:57.199 --> 00:44:59.360 and I don't think I would do the title change there. 809 00:45:01.239 --> 00:45:03.400 But as far as what the main event accomplished, it 810 00:45:03.519 --> 00:45:07.800 established Sammy again as a credible threat to the US title. 811 00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:10.039 That's number one. Number two, it got Jacob fought too 812 00:45:10.079 --> 00:45:12.480 in the main event, again, something that we need to 813 00:45:12.480 --> 00:45:14.480 see more of. And as time goes on and we 814 00:45:14.519 --> 00:45:17.079 see Jacob in these main events, people will get used 815 00:45:17.119 --> 00:45:19.559 to seeing him as a main event player on this show. 816 00:45:20.239 --> 00:45:22.079 Not that it's going to take a whole lot to 817 00:45:22.119 --> 00:45:24.199 get buy in from the audience. I mean, they were 818 00:45:24.239 --> 00:45:27.519 already cheering for him. They already love the guy. He's 819 00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:32.280 going to be huge for them right long term. So 820 00:45:32.480 --> 00:45:33.960 it was good to get him in the main event 821 00:45:34.000 --> 00:45:36.880 as well. And it was nice to have a main 822 00:45:36.920 --> 00:45:40.440 event that did not have a fucking disqualification finish, because 823 00:45:40.480 --> 00:45:42.239 we've had far too many of those in the last 824 00:45:42.239 --> 00:45:45.480 few weeks in these main events. But on the whole, 825 00:45:46.159 --> 00:45:48.119 I look back at this show and it was another 826 00:45:48.440 --> 00:45:53.679 largely boring, uninspired episode of SmackDown that was made even 827 00:45:53.719 --> 00:45:55.639 worse by the fact that there were so many big 828 00:45:55.719 --> 00:45:59.639 names that were absent from the show. You didn't have 829 00:45:59.679 --> 00:46:02.920 John I mean, again, for whatever logan, Paul knows how 830 00:46:02.920 --> 00:46:04.679 to get heat and he's in a key match at 831 00:46:04.679 --> 00:46:06.719 Clash in Paris, right, he should be on the show. 832 00:46:06.760 --> 00:46:08.599 He was not on the show. John Cena was not 833 00:46:08.639 --> 00:46:10.440 on the show. Brock Lesner, we're not going to see 834 00:46:10.480 --> 00:46:15.159 until September twelfth. He's not even being advertised until September 835 00:46:15.199 --> 00:46:18.039 twelfth and September nineteenth. That'll lead into whatever that pay 836 00:46:18.119 --> 00:46:21.760 per view pl E is going to be on September twentieth, 837 00:46:22.239 --> 00:46:24.159 So we're not going to see him for a month, 838 00:46:24.800 --> 00:46:27.599 so you can put him on the side. And Cody 839 00:46:27.679 --> 00:46:31.400 Rhades wasn't there either. Damian Priest, he's out right, he's 840 00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:34.719 all banged up. The women's title I mean, don't even 841 00:46:34.760 --> 00:46:37.159 get me started again on the women's title stuff. I 842 00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:39.079 think I've already said my piece on that. There just 843 00:46:39.159 --> 00:46:40.880 is not a lot to get excited about on this 844 00:46:40.960 --> 00:46:42.599 show right now. And I don't want to say, oh, 845 00:46:42.639 --> 00:46:46.039 it's summer funk, it's the summer blues. This has been 846 00:46:46.039 --> 00:46:48.280 a recurring problem with this show now for a while, 847 00:46:48.480 --> 00:46:50.880 and it will go through these periods where you may 848 00:46:50.920 --> 00:46:52.800 have a really great show, you may have a really 849 00:46:52.840 --> 00:46:56.079 exciting string of shows, and then it goes right back 850 00:46:56.119 --> 00:47:00.199 to this. But this SmackDown has not been this bad 851 00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:04.639 in a while. Like these shows, it's it's not even 852 00:47:04.719 --> 00:47:08.159 like they're so bad that they're entertaining in like in 853 00:47:08.239 --> 00:47:12.000 like a good way, right. The worst kind of show 854 00:47:12.400 --> 00:47:16.280 that you could have is a boring show where when 855 00:47:16.280 --> 00:47:20.039 it's over, it's like, yeah, I mean the things were okay, 856 00:47:20.159 --> 00:47:23.239 they were decent, they were solid, but like that's it. 857 00:47:23.280 --> 00:47:25.239 You don't really have anything else to say about it. 858 00:47:26.599 --> 00:47:29.480 That's the worst kind of show, and there's no excuse 859 00:47:29.519 --> 00:47:31.719 for it. With the talent roster they have, there's no 860 00:47:31.800 --> 00:47:35.199 excuse for This is squarely uncreative. This is squarely untripleateous 861 00:47:35.199 --> 00:47:38.559 shoulders here. I don't know what's going on. I really 862 00:47:38.599 --> 00:47:40.920 don't know. It's like he's trying to top himself every 863 00:47:40.920 --> 00:47:42.519 week that goes by. How can I make the show 864 00:47:42.559 --> 00:47:45.400 even more boring than I did the week before? And 865 00:47:45.440 --> 00:47:48.760 that should never be the case. Two weeks in a 866 00:47:48.880 --> 00:47:51.519 row of this. Now, I have high hopes that are 867 00:47:51.719 --> 00:47:54.719 are are good people in Dublin are going to help 868 00:47:54.760 --> 00:47:57.440 make that show next week a lot more fun than 869 00:47:57.440 --> 00:47:59.320 it's been the last few weeks. But it's really not 870 00:47:59.400 --> 00:48:02.400 up to them. They can be as loud and as 871 00:48:02.480 --> 00:48:04.159 raucous as they want to be, but you still have 872 00:48:04.199 --> 00:48:07.480 to give them a good show.

Sound off listeners get 910 00:50:02.599 --> 00:50:06.280 ten percent off their first month at betterhelp dot com 911 00:50:06.320 --> 00:50:11.119 slash solom monster. That's better help h e lp dot 912 00:50:11.159 --> 00:50:15.559 com slash solom monster. Take a look at this poll. 913 00:50:16.320 --> 00:50:21.760 Eleven percent give the show an A grade. Seventeen percent 914 00:50:22.000 --> 00:50:25.800 give the show a B, twenty nine percent give the 915 00:50:25.840 --> 00:50:30.679 show a C, and forty two point five percent give 916 00:50:30.719 --> 00:50:33.480 this show a D. And the only reason that there's 917 00:50:33.480 --> 00:50:36.719 no F option is because I'm only allowed four options 918 00:50:37.119 --> 00:50:41.800 in these Twitter polls. Otherwise I think F would have 919 00:50:41.840 --> 00:50:45.199 won out the night. But as you can see, this 920 00:50:45.320 --> 00:50:54.039 was a resounding D show. Can't say I disagree telling 921 00:50:54.039 --> 00:51:02.440 you man, Collision Collision is a better show than Smackdom 922 00:51:02.639 --> 00:51:11.440 the way it is, that's where we are now. It's ridiculous, 923 00:51:11.440 --> 00:51:19.159 regious super chats. I wish I had a better one 924 00:51:19.199 --> 00:51:21.480 for you, guys, I really do. I wish I had 925 00:51:21.480 --> 00:51:23.960 a much more fun show to review, but you know, 926 00:51:24.039 --> 00:51:26.400 you take him as you get him. Holiday one ninety seven, 927 00:51:26.400 --> 00:51:30.280 we're gonna kick things off with you. By the way, 928 00:51:30.320 --> 00:51:34.000 we are currently sitting at three hundred and fifty nine likes, 929 00:51:34.639 --> 00:51:36.880 so we need forty more if we're gonna do be 930 00:51:36.960 --> 00:51:40.639 the booker. Let's see if we can get there. But 931 00:51:40.719 --> 00:51:48.480 Holiday Holliday says, Hey, Solo, which current champion in WWE 932 00:51:49.039 --> 00:51:55.400 NXT excluded? Do you think should lose their championship first? 933 00:51:55.639 --> 00:52:03.559 In your view, Solo Socoa I think it might end 934 00:52:03.639 --> 00:52:06.559 up being dominic Mysterio, but I think it should be 935 00:52:06.559 --> 00:52:11.320 solo so co Victor Buy or Sell nineteen ninety seven 936 00:52:11.360 --> 00:52:18.000 Shawn Michaels or two thousand Triple H. Two thousand Triple 937 00:52:18.159 --> 00:52:20.400 H was the best version of Triple H of his 938 00:52:20.559 --> 00:52:24.800 entire career, But nineteen ninety seven Shawn Michaels was just 939 00:52:25.679 --> 00:52:29.440 on another level. He was also probably on another planet 940 00:52:29.559 --> 00:52:32.280 for most of the year. That's probably what made it 941 00:52:32.320 --> 00:52:35.199 so much fun to watch. I'm Gonna Buy On nineteen 942 00:52:35.280 --> 00:52:40.400 ninety seven Shawn Michaels nineteen ninety seven Shawn Michaels was 943 00:52:40.599 --> 00:52:44.119 I feel like in many ways Sean physically in the 944 00:52:44.239 --> 00:52:51.559 ring at his peak, Hollywood guy. Was Sammy traded to 945 00:52:51.679 --> 00:52:54.079 SmackDown for War Games or is he going for the 946 00:52:54.199 --> 00:53:00.800 US title? I hope he gets his flowers soon. No, 947 00:53:00.960 --> 00:53:03.440 I mean I think he was traded to SmackDown to 948 00:53:03.480 --> 00:53:12.800 go after the US title. Win the US title? Nick Rosso, 949 00:53:15.000 --> 00:53:17.199 what are your thoughts on TNA moving to either A 950 00:53:17.320 --> 00:53:19.480 and E or CW and possibly going head to head 951 00:53:19.480 --> 00:53:22.679 with AW on Wednesday Nights? Also, do you think Naomi 952 00:53:22.719 --> 00:53:25.840 will vacate the women's title on Raw? On Monday nights. 953 00:53:26.800 --> 00:53:30.559 I do, I do. I think she's gonna end up 954 00:53:30.920 --> 00:53:38.079 having to give up the championship. My thought, I'm gonna 955 00:53:38.079 --> 00:53:41.800 go into the I'm gonna go into the TNA stuff 956 00:53:42.119 --> 00:53:45.960 in a lot more detail on the podcast on Sunday. 957 00:53:46.039 --> 00:53:47.760 So I really don't want to get There's just too 958 00:53:47.840 --> 00:53:50.119 much to get into here. But I will say that 959 00:53:51.440 --> 00:53:55.079 there's a very particular reason why this is happening. And 960 00:53:55.119 --> 00:53:59.960 this has nothing to do with competition nothing. This is 961 00:54:00.000 --> 00:54:10.440 I'm not competing. This is personal. Thank you, brother. We 962 00:54:10.519 --> 00:54:14.039 got jays Raw has a great women's division and an 963 00:54:14.119 --> 00:54:17.239 awful tag division. SmackDown has a terrible women's division and 964 00:54:17.280 --> 00:54:27.159 a stacked tag division. No lies detected there, Holiday says, 965 00:54:27.159 --> 00:54:31.119 do you see Chris Jericho returning to WWE to retire? Yes? 966 00:54:31.159 --> 00:54:38.119 I do. Shout out to dev to dust Matt Fisher 967 00:54:38.119 --> 00:54:41.119 with a four ninety nine. Person one, what does IDK 968 00:54:41.360 --> 00:54:45.599 stand for? Person two? I don't know person one? OMG, 969 00:54:46.039 --> 00:54:49.440 nobody does. This is like an abbat in Costello who's 970 00:54:49.440 --> 00:54:55.000 on first routine. Also, two people fell down a hole? 971 00:54:55.960 --> 00:54:58.840 Yeah green Man. At the beginning of the stream, Poor guy, 972 00:54:59.119 --> 00:55:02.480 Poor guy's been getting a over the last week well, 973 00:55:02.519 --> 00:55:04.159 you see green Man at the beginning of the stream. 974 00:55:04.199 --> 00:55:07.159 You know it was a bad show. Just say that. 975 00:55:09.239 --> 00:55:12.840 It says two people fell down a hole. One said 976 00:55:12.880 --> 00:55:15.840 it's dark in here, isn't it? The other replied, I 977 00:55:15.840 --> 00:55:24.079 don't know, I can't see. Was that person blonde? Probably 978 00:55:27.199 --> 00:55:31.519 Charles Turner SmackDown sucked that being said, I really enjoyed 979 00:55:31.559 --> 00:55:35.320 last week's nineties music chat run Away by Real McCoy 980 00:55:35.320 --> 00:55:38.199 and Scatman, or two of my go to nineties dance songs. 981 00:55:40.039 --> 00:55:43.000 What about Mambo number five? You didn't mention Mambo number five? 982 00:55:45.000 --> 00:55:50.679 Melissa Grasso? What kind of music do bubbles hate? Pop music? 983 00:55:51.599 --> 00:55:56.480 Look at Melissa with the jokes. Look at Melissa. That's 984 00:55:56.480 --> 00:56:02.719 actually a pretty good one. Thank you, Melissa, And I 985 00:56:02.760 --> 00:56:07.239 see we just hit four hundred likes. So there you go. 986 00:56:07.360 --> 00:56:12.039 Be the booker on the way. Fiji Finesser Triple eighth 987 00:56:12.079 --> 00:56:18.239 shows have been boring but never embarrassing. Well, that's certainly 988 00:56:18.519 --> 00:56:25.039 a matter of interpretation. I'm sure he's had some embarrassing shows, 989 00:56:25.239 --> 00:56:27.480 but you know what, they don't have to be embarrassing. 990 00:56:27.599 --> 00:56:32.840 Boring is just as bad. Let's not justify boring shows. 991 00:56:33.199 --> 00:56:37.039 I hope you're not trying to justify these shows in 992 00:56:37.559 --> 00:56:43.119 some weird roundabout way. Arabian Night, you think TNA will 993 00:56:43.159 --> 00:56:46.400 actually be a feeder system for WW it already is, Dude, 994 00:56:48.239 --> 00:56:51.000 Arabian Night, it already is. It's already a feeder system 995 00:56:51.000 --> 00:56:52.719 for them. It's been that way for a while. It 996 00:56:52.800 --> 00:56:56.360 is a stepping stone to WWE, and TNA knows it, 997 00:56:56.480 --> 00:57:01.239 and TNA management is okay with it. That's the deal 998 00:57:01.320 --> 00:57:07.719 they made, says because at the moment, more talents have 999 00:57:07.760 --> 00:57:15.159 gone to AAW from TNA, I e. Josh Alexander, Deanna Perrazzo, Speedball, 1000 00:57:15.239 --> 00:57:19.320 and now Ace Austin. Well, some of those like Deanna 1001 00:57:20.880 --> 00:57:26.199 happened before the WWETNA partnership started. But no, it is 1002 00:57:26.199 --> 00:57:28.400 a feed Just because it's a feeder system does not 1003 00:57:28.480 --> 00:57:32.039 mean that everybody from TNA is going to go to WWE. 1004 00:57:32.880 --> 00:57:35.000 What it means is that WWE will be able to 1005 00:57:35.039 --> 00:57:39.079 pick the people effectively that they want to try to 1006 00:57:39.119 --> 00:57:42.840 prevent them from going to AW. Now, it won't always 1007 00:57:42.840 --> 00:57:45.639 be the case. There are people like Josh Alexander who 1008 00:57:45.639 --> 00:57:47.679 probably have the option. He made the choice he wanted 1009 00:57:47.719 --> 00:57:52.079 to go to AW. There are exceptions to that, but 1010 00:57:52.440 --> 00:57:54.880 that's basically what TNA has become. It is a feeder 1011 00:57:54.960 --> 00:58:01.599 system for WWA. WWE now has power over TNA. That 1012 00:58:01.719 --> 00:58:05.159 is the deal that TNA made. That's the bargain that 1013 00:58:05.199 --> 00:58:09.239 they made because they are hoping the wweh may be 1014 00:58:09.320 --> 00:58:11.119 able to play a role in helping them get a 1015 00:58:11.119 --> 00:58:15.639 better TV deal. You know that WWE will also maybe 1016 00:58:15.719 --> 00:58:18.920 allow them to use some of their talents sometimes like 1017 00:58:18.960 --> 00:58:22.159 they did aj Styles and Slammiversary to sell some extra tickets. 1018 00:58:25.280 --> 00:58:32.159 TNA is not a profitable company, so they're doing what 1019 00:58:32.199 --> 00:58:34.480 they feel they need to do. But then I see 1020 00:58:34.480 --> 00:58:36.760 people like Gail kim Go on social media when she's 1021 00:58:36.800 --> 00:58:40.679 asking answering questions from people about what's going on here, 1022 00:58:40.719 --> 00:58:44.719 and she's talking about, you know, TNA, you know, losing 1023 00:58:44.760 --> 00:58:48.159 its heart. And the reason people are leaving is because 1024 00:58:48.199 --> 00:58:50.440 TNA doesn't give them a reason to feel loyalty to 1025 00:58:50.519 --> 00:58:53.719 the company. And it's a lot of reasons why people 1026 00:58:53.719 --> 00:58:55.840 are leaving TNA to go somewhere else. They're probably not 1027 00:58:55.840 --> 00:58:57.719 getting paid what they feel like they should be paid, 1028 00:58:58.079 --> 00:59:02.239 but there are a lot of reasons why. Like I said, 1029 00:59:02.400 --> 00:59:04.280 I'll get into this on Sunday, I got a whole 1030 00:59:06.000 --> 00:59:08.440 I got a whole spiel to get into on the 1031 00:59:08.719 --> 00:59:22.000 SoundOff anyway, Thank you very brief, shortened to the point, 1032 00:59:22.039 --> 00:59:25.679 I guess. Thank you guys everybody who sent one in. 1033 00:59:25.719 --> 00:59:30.039 I appreciate you very much. Be the booker, ladies and gentlemen. 1034 00:59:30.360 --> 00:59:36.239 It is now time to be the booker. It is 1035 00:59:36.320 --> 00:59:42.039 time to be the booker on a Friday night. What 1036 00:59:42.159 --> 00:59:44.400 is it that Sampunk says whenever we see him on TV? 1037 00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:47.199 Is it great? Is it great to be alive on 1038 00:59:47.239 --> 00:59:50.679 a Monday night? Is it great to be alive with 1039 00:59:50.840 --> 00:59:53.920 be the booker on a Friday night? I would say so. 1040 00:59:56.079 --> 00:59:59.920 We start off with the Quebecers. They were in Quebec 1041 01:00:00.039 --> 01:00:02.880 City last week for SmackDown. We should have had them 1042 01:00:02.920 --> 01:00:07.639 pop up last week. Jacques and Pierre, the Quebecers, they're 1043 01:00:07.639 --> 01:00:15.679 not the Mounties and they will be taking on Imperium 1044 01:00:16.760 --> 01:00:22.079 Ludwig Kaiser. Man. You know, I see Giovanni Vinci and 1045 01:00:22.119 --> 01:00:24.320 it just makes me very sad. But it would be 1046 01:00:24.320 --> 01:00:28.599 a good match given it the bell but Man, Vinci 1047 01:00:28.679 --> 01:00:37.000 and Kaiser were a damn good team. What a waste. 1048 01:00:37.639 --> 01:00:45.719 I haven't even heard about Vincy wrestling indies anywhere. Our 1049 01:00:45.760 --> 01:00:49.159 women's be the booker. We have Rijo. There she is. 1050 01:00:51.760 --> 01:00:54.079 I haven't seen Rio last. I heard she broke her wrist, 1051 01:00:54.119 --> 01:00:56.239 but that was like nine months ago. It was a 1052 01:00:56.239 --> 01:01:03.920 long time ago. I don't know where she's been. Rijo 1053 01:01:04.320 --> 01:01:19.400 and Natalia. That just doesn't do it for me. Main event. 1054 01:01:24.280 --> 01:01:27.360 There he is Dirty dom the man who single handedly 1055 01:01:27.400 --> 01:01:31.400 sold out triple Mania Tomorrowne in nineteen thousand seats all 1056 01:01:31.480 --> 01:01:37.079 gone because of Dirty Dominic, mysterio, the Intercontinental Champion in 1057 01:01:37.119 --> 01:01:47.440 the main event, as he will be at triple Mania Tomorne, 1058 01:01:48.519 --> 01:01:51.519 Dirty Dom against the tntch Look at this, the Intercontinental 1059 01:01:51.599 --> 01:01:57.880 Champion against the TNT Champion, Kyle Fletcher. See now there's 1060 01:01:57.880 --> 01:02:02.440 a match between two young rising stars, champion against champion. 1061 01:02:02.599 --> 01:02:06.920 Like if you were going to put together a wweaw supercard, 1062 01:02:07.960 --> 01:02:11.159 this would be one of the mid card matches on 1063 01:02:11.199 --> 01:02:13.119 that show that you would have right there, right smack 1064 01:02:13.159 --> 01:02:16.880 in the middle of the pay per view Dominic and 1065 01:02:16.960 --> 01:02:21.480 Kyle Fletcher two out of three and be the booker. 1066 01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:31.079 Not great, but not bad. Jeff says, I would love 1067 01:02:31.119 --> 01:02:33.840 to see ReHO versus Natalian. No. I would love to 1068 01:02:33.840 --> 01:02:41.159 see ReHO against the blood Sport Natty, not this WWE 1069 01:02:41.239 --> 01:02:48.039 version of Natty. That they don't do anything with blood Sport, Natty. Oh, well, 1070 01:02:48.039 --> 01:02:50.920 I do a Triple Mania review. So I am I'm 1071 01:02:50.920 --> 01:02:53.239 going to be gone tomorrow. I have a party to 1072 01:02:53.280 --> 01:02:55.000 go to, but I am hoping that when I come 1073 01:02:55.079 --> 01:02:58.079 home I could play catch up with Triple Mania and 1074 01:02:58.119 --> 01:02:59.679 then I will talk about it on the sound off 1075 01:02:59.679 --> 01:03:10.079 on sign. So the answer is yes, a real forbidden doormat. 1076 01:03:10.119 --> 01:03:12.199 That would be a real forbidden door match, wouldn't it, 1077 01:03:14.039 --> 01:03:16.559 Doctor Scorpio. Next week's SmackDown review is going to be 1078 01:03:16.599 --> 01:03:21.280 under an hour. Next week's SmackDown review could potentially be earlier. 1079 01:03:22.079 --> 01:03:26.559 I will check and see if because it's international, just 1080 01:03:26.679 --> 01:03:29.079 so you know, they're going on this international tour may 1081 01:03:29.079 --> 01:03:36.599 be very similar to what we did in Mark So, hey, 1082 01:03:36.679 --> 01:03:40.360 Darth Panic coming in with the in the Clutch here 1083 01:03:40.559 --> 01:03:47.079 with the twenty dollars super shot. Yeah, So if SmackDown 1084 01:03:47.239 --> 01:03:50.440 is going to be airing earlier, I'll use my VPN 1085 01:03:51.639 --> 01:03:54.239 and maybe we'll have an earlier SmackDown review next Friday. 1086 01:03:54.280 --> 01:03:56.039 I'll keep I don't know, I don't know where it's 1087 01:03:56.079 --> 01:04:01.000 airing time zones and everything. I'll keep you guys posted 1088 01:04:01.079 --> 01:04:05.280 on that. Any opportunity for me to go earlier with 1089 01:04:05.360 --> 01:04:10.039 these reviews. I'm gonna take advantage of it, Broley, with 1090 01:04:10.079 --> 01:04:12.360 the four ninety nine no effort in the fact that 1091 01:04:12.400 --> 01:04:16.480 the three most boring factions are leading to show, like 1092 01:04:16.519 --> 01:04:20.119 the mft's Secret Hervis and Wyatt six, I'll just stick 1093 01:04:20.159 --> 01:04:25.440 to raw. Yeah, I mean the god you know what, 1094 01:04:25.639 --> 01:04:29.920 it's all the factions, dude, It's all the factions in WWE, 1095 01:04:31.639 --> 01:04:34.679 even Sets Faction at this point. I love bron Breaker, 1096 01:04:34.760 --> 01:04:39.559 but even Sets faction is just it's missing something, you know. 1097 01:04:39.639 --> 01:04:49.480 The Judgment Day, the Wyats, the MFTs, Secret Hervists. There's 1098 01:04:49.519 --> 01:04:53.599 just nothing, man, there's nothing there. You have all these 1099 01:04:53.639 --> 01:04:56.239 groups and none of them are interesting, not a single 1100 01:04:56.280 --> 01:05:02.800 one of them. Darth panic. So if the rumors are 1101 01:05:02.840 --> 01:05:05.280 true about Naomi, then this will be the second time 1102 01:05:05.320 --> 01:05:08.280 that she has to relinquish the title. Well right now, 1103 01:05:08.320 --> 01:05:11.679 that's all it is. Lots of rumors out there, nobody knows, 1104 01:05:11.719 --> 01:05:14.199 but we're gonna find out on Monday. We have to. 1105 01:05:15.880 --> 01:05:19.079 They can't wait any longer. They've got a PLA to 1106 01:05:19.119 --> 01:05:20.920 promote at the end of the month, and Stephanie Vicaire 1107 01:05:21.039 --> 01:05:23.800 is guaranteed a championship match. Eo Sky was supposed to 1108 01:05:23.800 --> 01:05:26.679 get a championship match, So if the title has to 1109 01:05:26.679 --> 01:05:28.719 be vacated, there's only one match that makes sense. You 1110 01:05:28.760 --> 01:05:30.280 don't have to do a tournament, you don't have to 1111 01:05:30.320 --> 01:05:34.960 do multi person mania EO Sky, Stephanie Vicaire in Paris, 1112 01:05:35.079 --> 01:05:38.920 one on one, inject that shit into my veins and 1113 01:05:38.920 --> 01:05:52.239 that's all you need to do. It's very simple. My 1114 01:05:52.440 --> 01:05:57.320 Digimond Pro Wrestling faction is more interesting than WWE. Hey, 1115 01:05:57.400 --> 01:06:04.480 I don't doubt it. I don't doubt it. Yeah, WWE 1116 01:06:04.599 --> 01:06:07.519 just doesn't know how to do interesting factions. They just don't. 1117 01:06:14.159 --> 01:06:16.760 I think Live getting hurt hurt the well, of course, 1118 01:06:16.840 --> 01:06:19.320 Live getting hurt hurt the story they were telling with 1119 01:06:19.599 --> 01:06:23.840 Live Morgan and Roxane Perez. Now they'll be able to 1120 01:06:23.880 --> 01:06:25.599 pick up with it when Live comes back, But in 1121 01:06:25.639 --> 01:06:27.239 the meantime, I mean, she's not going to be back 1122 01:06:27.239 --> 01:06:30.719 for months, so they had to take things in a 1123 01:06:30.719 --> 01:06:36.199 different direction and it hurt. But even when Live was around, 1124 01:06:36.239 --> 01:06:42.039 what Live was doing was was fine, But was it 1125 01:06:42.679 --> 01:06:45.519 on its own? Was it making the judgment day? This 1126 01:06:47.000 --> 01:06:50.119 wonderfully interesting faction to watch. I mean, it was more 1127 01:06:50.159 --> 01:06:54.079 interesting than what they're doing now. But no, I still 1128 01:06:54.079 --> 01:06:56.039 would have felt the same way. I mean the Judgment Day, 1129 01:06:56.079 --> 01:06:58.000 what we're watching here is kind of a shell of 1130 01:06:58.000 --> 01:07:02.639 what he used to be. That's what it is. Once 1131 01:07:02.679 --> 01:07:06.559 they lost Damian Priest and rear Ripley, you basically rip 1132 01:07:06.599 --> 01:07:09.159 the guts out of the Judgment Day. What we have 1133 01:07:09.280 --> 01:07:17.440 now is an inferior version of the group with inferior 1134 01:07:17.519 --> 01:07:20.599 music too. When they changed the music, that didn't help. 1135 01:07:28.159 --> 01:07:31.719 Also had to rebook Evolution because liv got hurt. Well. 1136 01:07:31.840 --> 01:07:33.639 Evolution turned out to be one of the best shows 1137 01:07:33.639 --> 01:07:37.480 all years, so they had to rebook stuff but didn't 1138 01:07:37.559 --> 01:07:44.320 hurt the quality of the show. Should Drew win the 1139 01:07:44.400 --> 01:07:48.840 WWE title from Cody early because Drew is great. I 1140 01:07:48.880 --> 01:07:51.679 am all in favor of anything to shake up this show. 1141 01:07:53.960 --> 01:07:56.960 I don't see it happening, but if they wanted to 1142 01:07:56.960 --> 01:08:05.079 put the WWE championship on Drew, Matt Fisher with the 1143 01:08:05.239 --> 01:08:12.800 twenty just to say meow, okay, all right, very good, 1144 01:08:14.239 --> 01:08:16.199 very good. Matt is going to mosey on over to 1145 01:08:16.239 --> 01:08:19.960 the litter box as I'm mosey on over to this 1146 01:08:20.600 --> 01:08:26.640 super chat here from Broley, wwe too lazy to get 1147 01:08:26.720 --> 01:08:29.560 new men to the top compared to the women. It's 1148 01:08:29.600 --> 01:08:31.840 the same men in the main events scene. Every year 1149 01:08:32.079 --> 01:08:38.920 women are beating the men you know there are, I 1150 01:08:39.000 --> 01:08:43.560 think more so on Raw than on SmackDown. Like the 1151 01:08:43.560 --> 01:08:48.840 stuff with Rhea and EO and the World Heavyweight Championship 1152 01:08:48.840 --> 01:08:52.479 on that end has been infinitely better than what they 1153 01:08:52.479 --> 01:08:56.119 have given us on SmackDown. Oh it's a direction you 1154 01:08:56.159 --> 01:09:01.399 can fuck. I feel like that sort of Triple H's 1155 01:09:01.479 --> 01:09:11.800 message to the women on SmackDown. Bass beers with the 1156 01:09:11.920 --> 01:09:17.119 twenty three dollar off super chat from the rack. How 1157 01:09:17.119 --> 01:09:19.800 many wrestlers are involved in this Street Fighter movie? Also, 1158 01:09:19.840 --> 01:09:23.720 who would you cast as Johnny Cage in Mortal Combat? 1159 01:09:25.359 --> 01:09:28.119 They've already cast Carla Urban, who I think is great 1160 01:09:28.159 --> 01:09:31.439 casting for that role. I wouldn't change I wouldn't change anything. 1161 01:09:31.439 --> 01:09:34.199 I wouldn't put any wrestler in that spot. I know 1162 01:09:34.279 --> 01:09:36.000 people were like, oh, the miz, the miss should have 1163 01:09:36.039 --> 01:09:39.319 been Johnny Cage. Now Carla Urban is going to be 1164 01:09:39.359 --> 01:09:46.279 a great Johnny Cage, he says, La Knight. Now, I 1165 01:09:46.279 --> 01:09:50.840 mean again, I think the casting is on point. As 1166 01:09:50.840 --> 01:09:52.640 far as wrestler is in the Street Fighter movie, I 1167 01:09:52.680 --> 01:09:55.840 think it's just Cody and Roman right, the other ones 1168 01:09:55.840 --> 01:09:58.920 they have a fifty cent is in the movie. Jason 1169 01:09:58.960 --> 01:10:02.720 Momoa is in the the movie. I don't think any 1170 01:10:02.720 --> 01:10:08.840 other wrestlers are in the movie to my knowledge. Broly 1171 01:10:08.920 --> 01:10:15.720 says Julia, Tiffany, Lyra, Steph and for the men only 1172 01:10:15.840 --> 01:10:25.399 bron Oh. I think he's talking about women that they 1173 01:10:25.399 --> 01:10:31.560 have gotten to the top. Well, Lyra's not at the top. Yeah, 1174 01:10:31.560 --> 01:10:33.279 I mean they've done a very they've done a very 1175 01:10:33.319 --> 01:10:37.039 poor job as compared to the women of trying to 1176 01:10:37.039 --> 01:10:39.000 get some of the new faces over at a high level. 1177 01:10:39.000 --> 01:10:41.520 I don't disagree with you on that. Obviously, bron Breakers 1178 01:10:41.520 --> 01:10:44.520 is going places, but they're also Look, you gotta throw 1179 01:10:44.600 --> 01:10:48.239 Jacob in there. You get put bron and Jacob in there. 1180 01:10:52.560 --> 01:10:56.359 Z Paul's z Paul SENTI with a ten dollars super 1181 01:10:56.439 --> 01:11:01.439 Chat says, Oh, that's right. Hold on, Joey, I forgot 1182 01:11:01.439 --> 01:11:07.159 all about that. That's right. Hey, there's Vato's thing, Hiroki 1183 01:11:07.279 --> 01:11:10.560 Goto from New Japan. He's in Street Fighter. He was 1184 01:11:10.600 --> 01:11:13.199 cast as Ihanda. I forgot about that. So we got 1185 01:11:13.199 --> 01:11:21.520 Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and Hiroki Goto. I think that's 1186 01:11:21.560 --> 01:11:31.319 all of them. Z Paul says. Propane has a song 1187 01:11:31.399 --> 01:11:36.239 called the Beast is back. It has to be Brock's 1188 01:11:36.399 --> 01:11:40.520 new entrance check it out, unless he's just a big 1189 01:11:40.560 --> 01:11:43.000 Brock Lesnar fan and just decided to do a song 1190 01:11:43.039 --> 01:11:47.199 for him because he's just a big Brock fan. I'm 1191 01:11:47.199 --> 01:11:49.640 still waiting for the new Becky Lynch song to drop 1192 01:11:49.680 --> 01:12:01.520 on Spotify. Matt Fisher says, before he died, Jerry Oh 1193 01:12:01.520 --> 01:12:06.119 the Wall from w CW Malice was on fire. How 1194 01:12:06.159 --> 01:12:09.439 far do you think he would have gone? He was 1195 01:12:09.479 --> 01:12:13.760 on fire? Maybe he was literally on fire, but no, 1196 01:12:13.880 --> 01:12:17.399 I wouldn't say he was on fire. How was he 1197 01:12:17.479 --> 01:12:21.119 on fire? I mean maybe he was getting a lot 1198 01:12:21.159 --> 01:12:22.960 of work. I don't remember what year he passed away. 1199 01:12:23.000 --> 01:12:25.439 I wouldn't say he was on fire, though. How far 1200 01:12:25.479 --> 01:12:26.760 do I think he would have gone? I don't think 1201 01:12:26.760 --> 01:12:30.159 he would have gone much further than he went. He 1202 01:12:30.199 --> 01:12:33.000 got to work a Nitru match against Hogan, didn't he 1203 01:12:33.000 --> 01:12:38.960 He wasn't going to go higher than that. Bass beer 1204 01:12:39.079 --> 01:12:46.479 is La Knight for Duke Nukeom shake it Baby? Maybe 1205 01:12:46.920 --> 01:12:51.359 maybe Aaron with the four ninety nine Naya and Tiffany 1206 01:12:51.399 --> 01:12:53.720 are trying to have more matches this year than Sena 1207 01:12:53.760 --> 01:12:56.960 and Orton in two thousand and nine. Also, which women 1208 01:12:57.039 --> 01:13:01.640 would you switch from road a SmackDown and vice versa. 1209 01:13:03.960 --> 01:13:05.560 I mean, I hate to break up what they have 1210 01:13:05.720 --> 01:13:12.640 with that women's division on Raw, but let me glance 1211 01:13:13.079 --> 01:13:20.439 real quick at the roster see what women they have 1212 01:13:20.680 --> 01:13:22.960 on Raw, just to refresh my memory here, because there's 1213 01:13:22.960 --> 01:13:26.119 a bunch of women that are not really actively being used. 1214 01:13:26.159 --> 01:13:29.079 So we have on Raw, we have Oscar and Kyrie 1215 01:13:29.159 --> 01:13:34.359 and EO. We have Becky and Bailey. Actually, you know 1216 01:13:34.399 --> 01:13:35.960 what I would do. I would move Bailey, is what 1217 01:13:35.960 --> 01:13:40.239 I would do. I'd move Bailey over to SmackDown, so 1218 01:13:40.319 --> 01:13:47.239 Bailey would be one. You've got Lyra, Rhea rock Sand 1219 01:13:47.880 --> 01:13:51.880 can't move any of them. I mean you could move Lyra, 1220 01:13:51.960 --> 01:13:55.039 but I wouldn't move Lyra and Bailey. So choose one 1221 01:13:55.279 --> 01:13:58.920 and move that person, but don't move them both. And 1222 01:13:58.960 --> 01:14:01.840 then Stephanie and Zoe, and Zoe's out for a long time, 1223 01:14:04.000 --> 01:14:08.680 so that's the women's and then Maxine and Natty and 1224 01:14:08.760 --> 01:14:10.840 Live is out. Look at this they have Keana James 1225 01:14:11.000 --> 01:14:13.279 still listed on the Raw roster. This is what I mean. 1226 01:14:14.039 --> 01:14:17.680 They have not even updated this. Keanna James is on 1227 01:14:17.760 --> 01:14:20.119 the fucking roster page for Monday Night. Ro Let me 1228 01:14:20.159 --> 01:14:26.119 see who's on SmackDown See if this is updated. SmackDown 1229 01:14:26.159 --> 01:14:29.600 has all three members of the Secret Hervists Charlotte Flair, 1230 01:14:29.640 --> 01:14:35.600 Alexa Bliss, b Fab Candice Lay, Nicky Cross who doesn't 1231 01:14:35.640 --> 01:14:42.119 wrestle anymore, Jay Cargill, Julia, Tiffany Stratton and Zelina Vega 1232 01:14:42.399 --> 01:14:53.520 and Mechen and Nya Jacks. Naomi. Naomi is listed on 1233 01:14:53.640 --> 01:15:02.079 this This fucking Naomi is listed on the SmackDown roster page. 1234 01:15:02.359 --> 01:15:13.520 Need I say more? My god? I don't know why 1235 01:15:13.560 --> 01:15:15.399 it takes so long for them to update their freaking 1236 01:15:15.520 --> 01:15:21.520 roster page. Broli says, have you seen Jeepers Creepers my 1237 01:15:21.600 --> 01:15:26.079 favorite horror movie? I did. I didn't see the sequel. Actually, 1238 01:15:26.079 --> 01:15:28.840 I think there was more than one I liked. I 1239 01:15:28.880 --> 01:15:34.279 like Jeepers Creepers. I wasn't expecting a Justin Long cameo 1240 01:15:34.479 --> 01:15:39.000 in Weapons, but he was in there too, Melissa with 1241 01:15:39.119 --> 01:15:42.119 the four ninety nine, What did one hat say to 1242 01:15:42.159 --> 01:15:48.520 the other, you stay here, I'll go on ahead. My god, 1243 01:15:48.560 --> 01:15:53.399 this is like the female version of sidrow Here, only 1244 01:15:53.439 --> 01:16:03.079 not not as dirty. Thank you, Melissa. This is how 1245 01:16:03.119 --> 01:16:06.479 much attention the women's division gets, says Roderick Well At 1246 01:16:06.560 --> 01:16:19.960 least on the website. Omas is in charge of the website. Hey, 1247 01:16:20.000 --> 01:16:23.479 if Omas knows how to do HTML and JavaScript, it's 1248 01:16:23.520 --> 01:16:28.560 not like they have him doing anything else. I remember 1249 01:16:29.000 --> 01:16:33.359 when I first started doing websites, like I did one 1250 01:16:33.399 --> 01:16:36.359 from my old ee fed back in the day, Man, 1251 01:16:37.760 --> 01:16:39.720 there was a program called it was a free program 1252 01:16:39.760 --> 01:16:44.680 called AOL Press, so I started using that to edit code. 1253 01:16:44.880 --> 01:16:47.560 But a lot of the time I was editing HTML 1254 01:16:47.800 --> 01:16:52.479 in a fucking notepad text document line by line, so 1255 01:16:52.560 --> 01:16:55.119 I knew all the color codes and all that chicken. 1256 01:16:55.239 --> 01:16:57.439 I'd forget a bracket and everything would be all fucked up. 1257 01:16:57.439 --> 01:16:59.760 I'd have to go find where the missing bracket was. 1258 01:17:00.960 --> 01:17:04.800 Good times. Surely somebody could teach oh Mas how to 1259 01:17:04.840 --> 01:17:12.920 do that. Have I ever seen the nineteen seventy seven 1260 01:17:13.000 --> 01:17:16.239 Hills Have Eyes movie? No, I saw the remake. I 1261 01:17:16.279 --> 01:17:21.960 did not see the nineteen seventy seven one. Geo Cities. 1262 01:17:23.920 --> 01:17:27.479 What was the other one it was? I think there 1263 01:17:27.520 --> 01:17:30.079 was another one, but yeah, Geo. I actually never had 1264 01:17:30.079 --> 01:17:33.319 a Geo Cities page. I had an AOL page. I 1265 01:17:33.359 --> 01:17:42.359 did not have a Geo Cities page. Yeah. On dial 1266 01:17:42.479 --> 01:17:47.319 up no less. Yeah, that was always fun as soon 1267 01:17:47.319 --> 01:17:49.680 as somebody would pick up the phone, I would be disconnected. 1268 01:17:53.840 --> 01:18:03.479 You're like, Mom, don't pick up the phone. Yes, AOL 1269 01:18:03.520 --> 01:18:06.680 dial up is ending. I believe as of the end 1270 01:18:06.680 --> 01:18:10.760 of this month, AOL will be discontinuing its dial up service. Finally, 1271 01:18:11.600 --> 01:18:13.960 after all these years there were still some people using it, 1272 01:18:14.000 --> 01:18:18.720 probably you know, elderly people. They are finally discontinuing it. 1273 01:18:37.159 --> 01:18:39.920 Have I seen Superman it is now? It's already on digital? 1274 01:18:39.960 --> 01:18:43.439 Really No, I did not see it. I have no 1275 01:18:43.520 --> 01:18:46.359 interest in seeing it. I'm not a Superman guy. I'm 1276 01:18:46.399 --> 01:18:59.920 a Batman guy. Yes he People are shocked at AOL 1277 01:19:00.000 --> 01:19:03.079 well is still on It's I mean it won't be 1278 01:19:03.720 --> 01:19:05.880 in a little bit, but yeah, no, it was still there, 1279 01:19:06.199 --> 01:19:08.640 believe it or not. I still have some of my 1280 01:19:08.920 --> 01:19:19.079 AOL discs that I used to get, old floppy discs. God, 1281 01:19:19.119 --> 01:19:25.039 that noise it used to make. It's like a dying animal. 1282 01:19:26.920 --> 01:19:29.199 Aaron with the four ninety nine. If the streak has 1283 01:19:29.239 --> 01:19:32.960 to end, which undertaker opponent in hindsight would you have 1284 01:19:33.039 --> 01:19:37.079 picked to win instead of Rock? I would pick Orton. 1285 01:19:37.560 --> 01:19:42.600 At WrestleMania twenty one of the existing people that he wrestled, 1286 01:19:44.600 --> 01:19:58.640 cmpunk in WrestleMania twenty nine. Bes Beert says, have you 1287 01:19:58.680 --> 01:20:01.560 seen Hereditary or Midsummer? You know I had people telling 1288 01:20:01.600 --> 01:20:06.880 me I should see Midsummer. Did I see her? I 1289 01:20:06.920 --> 01:20:08.920 don't think I saw her Riditarry, No, I saw the Descent, 1290 01:20:09.159 --> 01:20:12.600 That's what I saw. No, I didn't see anyone Winston 1291 01:20:12.640 --> 01:20:15.600 slipt buy or sell Anaconda in nineteen ninety seven or 1292 01:20:15.680 --> 01:20:19.319 Deep Blue Sea nineteen ninety nine. I don't want to 1293 01:20:19.560 --> 01:20:23.000 say that it was a great movie, but Anaconda still 1294 01:20:23.039 --> 01:20:27.079 lives rent free in my head, especially the the the 1295 01:20:27.119 --> 01:20:30.119 scene with John Voight where he gets swallowed up by 1296 01:20:30.119 --> 01:20:34.680 the snake still lives right up here, right up here 1297 01:20:34.680 --> 01:20:39.039 in my head. So I'll assume you're excited for The 1298 01:20:39.079 --> 01:20:42.720 Batman too when it comes out in twenty twenty seven. 1299 01:20:43.319 --> 01:20:45.199 I will as soon as I watched The Batman. I 1300 01:20:45.239 --> 01:20:48.640 still haven't watched it yet. I finally got around to 1301 01:20:48.680 --> 01:20:52.439 seeing in a violent Nature. So just to let you 1302 01:20:52.439 --> 01:20:55.039 guys know, I'll have a little horror update for you 1303 01:20:55.079 --> 01:20:58.399 at the beginning of the sound off. I saw a 1304 01:20:58.399 --> 01:21:02.800 bunch of horror movies this week, and I'm not talking 1305 01:21:02.840 --> 01:21:05.920 about it now. I'm going to save my thoughts for 1306 01:21:05.960 --> 01:21:08.800 the beginning of the podcast on Sundal. I'll give you 1307 01:21:08.800 --> 01:21:13.800 a little update there, a little combined review without any 1308 01:21:14.159 --> 01:21:21.720 spoilers being given away. Be thirty minutes to down. Yeah, yeah, 1309 01:21:21.760 --> 01:21:26.560 I mean look, WWF at the time had this AOL 1310 01:21:26.680 --> 01:21:29.880 keyword and I loved it. I love going to that section. 1311 01:21:29.960 --> 01:21:31.760 It was the coolest thing in the world. Man, Oh 1312 01:21:31.760 --> 01:21:35.720 my god, is a WWF section on AOL. And then 1313 01:21:35.760 --> 01:21:39.279 they had the download galleries where you can download photos 1314 01:21:39.800 --> 01:21:44.279 like jpeg images. You could download wave files, which usually 1315 01:21:44.359 --> 01:21:48.359 were like ten second clips of the entrance music in 1316 01:21:48.680 --> 01:21:53.920 just horribly compressed format. And I would download these these 1317 01:21:54.039 --> 01:21:59.199 jpeg images, probably of Sonny, and you would just sit 1318 01:21:59.239 --> 01:22:05.800 there staring at a mosaic as each pixel would finally, 1319 01:22:05.880 --> 01:22:08.840 you know, come into view. You'd have to let each 1320 01:22:08.880 --> 01:22:15.840 pixel load. God, that was horrible, but those sunny photos 1321 01:22:15.840 --> 01:22:21.199 at the time were so worth it. What happened? What 1322 01:22:21.239 --> 01:22:26.760 the hell happened? Louise Cannon twenty years Twenty years ago 1323 01:22:27.119 --> 01:22:31.760 today we got the famous Shawn Michaels Montreal promo on raw. 1324 01:22:32.720 --> 01:22:35.600 Remember how much heat HBK got that night? Oh? I remember, 1325 01:22:37.359 --> 01:22:39.279 It's why it's on my list of the top nine 1326 01:22:39.640 --> 01:22:43.479 greatest promos of all time.

There's 1328 01:22:45.760 --> 01:22:49.720 a whole playlist up on the channel and each one ranked. 1329 01:22:50.600 --> 01:22:54.520 Today's episode is sponsored by HYMNS. Coming out of SummerSlam 1330 01:22:54.600 --> 01:22:56.680 last week, there was a wrestler in the news I 1331 01:22:56.680 --> 01:22:59.239 won't say who, but he was talking about his hair 1332 01:22:59.279 --> 01:23:02.079 loss and how much it really affected him and his 1333 01:23:02.159 --> 01:23:03.840 quality of life, and how he wished he would have 1334 01:23:03.920 --> 01:23:06.520 taken steps to address the issue years ago. And you 1335 01:23:06.520 --> 01:23:09.680 can understand why. You know, it's a cosmetic business that 1336 01:23:09.720 --> 01:23:12.319 they're in. This person's on TV all the time, very visible, 1337 01:23:12.760 --> 01:23:14.760 but there are thousands of men out there going through 1338 01:23:14.760 --> 01:23:17.640 the exact same thing who are not public figures, they 1339 01:23:17.640 --> 01:23:19.760 are not on television in front of millions of people, 1340 01:23:19.880 --> 01:23:23.239 but they can still feel that same shame, and they 1341 01:23:23.239 --> 01:23:27.039 shouldn't because there's nothing to be ashamed of.

We got Brodie watch Running Scared two 1367 01:25:01.800 --> 01:25:06.920 thousand and five. Fantastic movie. I might have to do that, 1368 01:25:09.600 --> 01:25:12.520 HBKC eighty three. In your opinion, doesn't matter if a 1369 01:25:12.560 --> 01:25:16.640 wrestling manager is taller or shorter than the wrestler he 1370 01:25:16.720 --> 01:25:23.880 is managing. And why I do think it matters. I do, 1371 01:25:26.680 --> 01:25:30.520 And it just matters because just visually it doesn't work. 1372 01:25:30.600 --> 01:25:32.720 I mean, it depends on what kind of wrestler you're 1373 01:25:32.760 --> 01:25:34.800 trying to push. If you're trying to push like a 1374 01:25:35.840 --> 01:25:39.279 top heel, for example, or even a mid card heel, 1375 01:25:39.279 --> 01:25:42.159 but like you're trying to push a heel and not 1376 01:25:42.319 --> 01:25:45.000 like a chicken shit heel who is supposed to be 1377 01:25:45.119 --> 01:25:48.600 laughed at or booed. It just doesn't work. If you have, 1378 01:25:48.760 --> 01:25:51.560 let's say, a six foot tall heel who's managed by 1379 01:25:51.680 --> 01:25:55.439 fucking taller Tonga, Like, it's not gonna work. It's just 1380 01:25:55.479 --> 01:26:10.399 not Did I ever burn music to CDs on my compute? 1381 01:26:10.439 --> 01:26:15.640 Of course I used to burn CDs quite often play 1382 01:26:15.680 --> 01:26:17.720 them in the car when my car had a washing. 1383 01:26:17.800 --> 01:26:19.680 My car still has a CD player, it's how old 1384 01:26:19.720 --> 01:26:24.760 my car is no bluetooth, but I got a CD 1385 01:26:24.840 --> 01:26:31.119 player Duff's VIDs. Have you or anyone here seen Queen 1386 01:26:31.159 --> 01:26:33.720 of the Ring yet? If so, is it worth buying 1387 01:26:33.800 --> 01:26:36.880 or renting? Chat? I leave that up to you. I 1388 01:26:36.920 --> 01:26:38.680 have not seen Queen of the Rings, so I can't 1389 01:26:38.840 --> 01:26:47.960 I can't vouch for it. Matt Fisher watched Running Scared 1390 01:26:48.159 --> 01:26:51.760 nineteen eighty seven, so I got one person telling me 1391 01:26:51.800 --> 01:26:53.840 to watch Running Scared nineteen eighty seven. I got one 1392 01:26:53.880 --> 01:26:56.239 person telling me to watch Running Scared two thousand and five. 1393 01:26:57.399 --> 01:27:11.600 Is two thousand and five or like a reboot? Yeah, 1394 01:27:12.239 --> 01:27:14.159 Queen of the Ring has been on I think digital 1395 01:27:14.279 --> 01:27:28.680 enough for a while yet, Deputy Dog says, imagine Giant 1396 01:27:28.720 --> 01:27:32.800 Gonzalez the manager and Harvey Whippleman the talents. Yeah, it doesn't. 1397 01:27:32.800 --> 01:27:36.920 See it doesn't really work, does it. It doesn't really work. 1398 01:27:51.239 --> 01:27:56.560 Bace beers buy or sell Exorcist or Rosemary's Baby. I 1399 01:27:56.560 --> 01:28:14.279 gotta buy on the Exorcist. Yeah, Alien, I'm glad you 1400 01:28:14.319 --> 01:28:22.359 mentioned that Darth pannic Alien Earth. Alien Earth that's on Hulu, right, Yeah, 1401 01:28:22.399 --> 01:28:24.119 I gotta go back and just it's been so many 1402 01:28:24.199 --> 01:28:26.359 years since I've seen the original Alien. I want to 1403 01:28:26.439 --> 01:28:30.079 at least rewatch the original I see. I don't know 1404 01:28:30.079 --> 01:28:34.319 if you have to watch the second movie. But I 1405 01:28:34.359 --> 01:28:38.279 think with this new Alien TV series that just came out, 1406 01:28:41.079 --> 01:28:43.600 I think the director may have said somewhere that you 1407 01:28:43.600 --> 01:28:45.840 should watch the first and maybe the second one and 1408 01:28:45.880 --> 01:28:49.279 just forget the other ones. So before I sit down 1409 01:28:49.279 --> 01:28:51.239 and watch it, it's like the Penguin Show. Like if 1410 01:28:51.279 --> 01:28:53.560 I'm gonna watch that Penguin show on HBO, Max, I 1411 01:28:53.840 --> 01:28:56.319 need to watch the Batman first, so I know I 1412 01:28:56.359 --> 01:29:11.000 have to catch up on that stuff. I Have I 1413 01:29:11.000 --> 01:29:19.359 ever seen fourteen oh eight? What's fourteen oh eight? I 1414 01:29:19.399 --> 01:29:26.279 don't know what that is. Have I seen the New 1415 01:29:26.319 --> 01:29:34.319 Fantastic Four movie? Yes, I did. I enjoyed it with 1416 01:29:34.520 --> 01:29:43.680 Pedro Pascal. I didn't like it as much as Weapons though, 1417 01:29:46.520 --> 01:29:53.680 Charles Turner. Iron Mike Sharp versus Steve Lombardi jobber jobber 1418 01:29:53.800 --> 01:29:57.720 B the BKR job or B the BKR? What does 1419 01:29:57.720 --> 01:30:03.800 that mean? I'm going with Iron Mike Sharp. Iron Mike 1420 01:30:03.880 --> 01:30:11.159 Sharp was a very entertaining job guy. You always knew 1421 01:30:11.159 --> 01:30:12.640 that it was him in the ring. When you would 1422 01:30:12.680 --> 01:30:15.000 hear the screams you would hear, you would hear the 1423 01:30:15.000 --> 01:30:28.319 grunts set up. That's Mike Sharp. Melissa says, I think 1424 01:30:28.359 --> 01:30:32.680 eighties horror is the best. Eighties horror had the greatest 1425 01:30:33.239 --> 01:30:38.720 practical effects, and in particular I think of the Thing, 1426 01:30:39.439 --> 01:30:47.199 I think of Fright Night, even RoboCop, like those movies 1427 01:30:47.239 --> 01:30:50.239 back then, and Rob Botten was just the king of 1428 01:30:50.279 --> 01:30:53.439 the practical effects. I just find the practical effects to 1429 01:30:53.479 --> 01:30:59.600 be far more like scary and disturbing than you know, CG. 1430 01:30:59.760 --> 01:31:04.279 I like, I'm a practical effects guy. In the eighties 1431 01:31:04.319 --> 01:31:07.279 had a lot of movies like that. So you go 1432 01:31:07.399 --> 01:31:09.920 back and you watch a lot of them really have 1433 01:31:09.920 --> 01:31:12.840 have held up well over the years. Yeah, the thing 1434 01:31:12.880 --> 01:31:16.119 has held up well. RoboCop has held up well. Some 1435 01:31:16.199 --> 01:31:17.920 movies don't, but I think a lot of them do. 1436 01:31:22.680 --> 01:31:24.680 Oh the flo of course, My god, the fly you 1437 01:31:24.720 --> 01:31:31.399 talk about disturbing? Holy shit, how can I forget the fly? Eh? 1438 01:31:34.000 --> 01:31:49.720 That's creepy. Where does John Carpenter rank on your best 1439 01:31:49.760 --> 01:31:55.600 horror Filmmaker's list? Number one? He's my favorite. He's my 1440 01:31:55.600 --> 01:32:01.439 favorite director. I just love I just love the vibe, 1441 01:32:01.479 --> 01:32:06.039 the music, the feel of a lot of his movies. Right, 1442 01:32:06.079 --> 01:32:08.960 they're not They're not all favorites of mine, but enough 1443 01:32:08.960 --> 01:32:12.960 of them are, and it's one of those. It's one 1444 01:32:13.000 --> 01:32:15.840 of those situations where when his movie comes on, like 1445 01:32:15.920 --> 01:32:19.359 you can just tell this is this is a John 1446 01:32:19.399 --> 01:32:26.600 Carpenter movie that mentioned Reboca, Like Paul Verhoven is another one, 1447 01:32:26.760 --> 01:32:28.880 Like you could just tell, Okay, this is a Paul 1448 01:32:29.000 --> 01:32:33.760 Verehoven movie. Some people you could just you could just tell. 1449 01:32:34.079 --> 01:32:48.880 Tarantino's another one. My favorite JC movie is They Live. Well, 1450 01:32:48.880 --> 01:32:51.640 mine is the original Halloween. Halloween and the Thing. Those 1451 01:32:52.039 --> 01:32:55.640 are the two for me. Those are the two for me. 1452 01:32:59.079 --> 01:33:03.600 But They Live is a fun movie, became a cult classic, 1453 01:33:04.720 --> 01:33:06.439 and then he had some movies that are not that 1454 01:33:07.479 --> 01:33:10.840 popular that I enjoy. He did a movie called body 1455 01:33:10.880 --> 01:33:16.479 Bags I think back in ninety three, which was actually 1456 01:33:16.479 --> 01:33:18.920 supposed to be an anthology series I think on Showtime, 1457 01:33:18.960 --> 01:33:22.000 but got canceled, so they just ended up making it 1458 01:33:22.039 --> 01:33:26.359 a movie. So I enjoyed that one Ghost of Mars. 1459 01:33:26.800 --> 01:33:29.439 You know, look, I'm not gonna say it's a great movie, 1460 01:33:29.479 --> 01:33:36.640 but I enjoy it, you know, Escape from New York, 1461 01:33:37.159 --> 01:33:47.359 Escape from La. Yeah. Anyway, I saw some good horror 1462 01:33:47.399 --> 01:33:51.439 movies this week. Again, I'll talk about those on the 1463 01:33:51.479 --> 01:33:55.479 sound off. And I got to add more to my playlist. 1464 01:33:56.840 --> 01:33:58.680 Haven't gotten to see enough good way. You know there 1465 01:33:58.720 --> 01:34:00.319 was another one that came out last year. I don't 1466 01:34:00.319 --> 01:34:02.520 know if it's a horror film. I guess maybe it 1467 01:34:02.560 --> 01:34:06.520 is body horror. I guess is what it's considered. But 1468 01:34:06.560 --> 01:34:07.960 I heard a lot of good things about and it 1469 01:34:08.039 --> 01:34:13.279 might have won some awards with Demi Moore The Substance. 1470 01:34:14.760 --> 01:34:16.560 I heard good things about that movie. I know that 1471 01:34:16.600 --> 01:34:20.079 came out last year. I have that. I've added that 1472 01:34:20.119 --> 01:34:31.479 to my list of things to watch, Doctor Scorpio, SmackDown 1473 01:34:31.600 --> 01:34:34.920 is so boring that we're spending almost the next hour 1474 01:34:35.079 --> 01:34:38.119 talking about movies and other things. Are you going to 1475 01:34:38.199 --> 01:34:40.760 tell me that this isn't more interesting than SmackDown? We talked. 1476 01:34:40.840 --> 01:34:43.840 We spent an hour talking about music last week. Now 1477 01:34:43.840 --> 01:34:53.159 it's movies next week. It'll be food. Anything to avoid 1478 01:34:53.159 --> 01:34:58.680 talking SmackDown for longer than I have to bace beers. 1479 01:34:58.680 --> 01:35:03.760 Who is worse? Ralph or Richie Aprile. Richie was a 1480 01:35:03.800 --> 01:35:10.680 real piece of work. Ralph caused more chaos, but Richie. 1481 01:35:10.720 --> 01:35:13.640 There was just nothing redeeming about Richie. At least Ralph 1482 01:35:13.720 --> 01:35:22.680 was funny. Richie was just a stone cold asshole. Ralph 1483 01:35:22.720 --> 01:35:40.840 had his funny moments. At least I smoke a lot 1484 01:35:40.880 --> 01:35:45.479 of weed with four ninety nine in super Chats, Rye 1485 01:35:45.479 --> 01:35:48.920 Back Return is what we need, retiring John Cena, then 1486 01:35:49.039 --> 01:35:54.000 unifying both world titles en route to WrestleMania challenging for 1487 01:35:54.039 --> 01:35:58.560 the tag team titles. It appears as if he has 1488 01:35:58.600 --> 01:36:02.039 indeed been smoking a lot of eat tonight based on 1489 01:36:02.079 --> 01:36:13.279 the substance of that super shot pass some around. No 1490 01:36:13.399 --> 01:36:16.399 love for candy Man, you know what, I just was 1491 01:36:16.439 --> 01:36:21.399 never a candy man guy. He was never a candy 1492 01:36:21.439 --> 01:36:23.359 Man guy. Maybe I should give it another shot. I 1493 01:36:23.399 --> 01:36:25.479 think I may have watched the first one many many 1494 01:36:25.520 --> 01:36:30.000 years ago. I just barely even remember any anything about it. 1495 01:36:31.439 --> 01:36:33.199 Maybe I should give it another shot. But you know, 1496 01:36:33.279 --> 01:36:34.920 I was never a candy man guy. I was never 1497 01:36:34.960 --> 01:36:56.560 a lawnmower man guy. Final destination scream I love scream. 1498 01:36:58.479 --> 01:37:01.319 Oh He's got a second A second half of the 1499 01:37:01.359 --> 01:37:03.279 super chet here from I smoke a lot of weed. 1500 01:37:05.359 --> 01:37:10.239 So Rye Back unifies both world titles en route to WrestleMania, 1501 01:37:10.319 --> 01:37:12.920 challenging for the tag team titles and bringing out mystery 1502 01:37:13.000 --> 01:37:16.800 partner Great Kalie as they win the tag team titles 1503 01:37:17.359 --> 01:37:21.079 and hand Kali the world title, and we have Rye 1504 01:37:21.079 --> 01:37:24.600 Back and Kallie as our world chance. So basically a 1505 01:37:24.680 --> 01:37:29.239 modern day two man power trip, but with rye Back 1506 01:37:29.319 --> 01:37:33.720 and the Great Collie. I think we may need to 1507 01:37:33.760 --> 01:37:36.880 have an intervention for our friend. I smoke a lot 1508 01:37:36.880 --> 01:37:44.359 of weed because we care about you and there are 1509 01:37:44.439 --> 01:37:46.479 limits to how much of this stuff that you should 1510 01:37:46.520 --> 01:37:52.800 be doing. Evidently you have exceeded that limit. Bas Beer 1511 01:37:52.880 --> 01:37:58.359 is remember Vince Vaughn as Norman Bates. I do, and 1512 01:37:58.359 --> 01:38:08.439 I remember Vince Vaughn is the second season of True Detective. 1513 01:38:10.199 --> 01:38:13.920 Oddly enough, I saw the second season of True Detective 1514 01:38:13.960 --> 01:38:16.920 before I saw the first season, and I enjoyed it, 1515 01:38:17.800 --> 01:38:20.159 and I would tell people like, oh, I enjoyed season two, 1516 01:38:20.159 --> 01:38:21.600 and they're like, what are you out of your mind? Like, 1517 01:38:21.640 --> 01:38:24.119 oh my god, it sucked. It's so inferior to season one. 1518 01:38:25.039 --> 01:38:27.119 Then I saw season one, and yes, of course season 1519 01:38:27.119 --> 01:38:29.920 one is the best. But I think I actually it 1520 01:38:29.960 --> 01:38:31.399 was better to do it the way that I did 1521 01:38:31.439 --> 01:38:33.880 it because I was able to appreciate season two without 1522 01:38:33.920 --> 01:38:38.319 being tainted by the greatness of season one. And then 1523 01:38:38.399 --> 01:38:41.520 season three I never got to so I don't know 1524 01:38:41.520 --> 01:38:57.039 if that's worth watching. Tony Todd in the remake of 1525 01:38:57.119 --> 01:39:01.359 Night of the Living Dead was amazing. Didn't Tony Todd 1526 01:39:01.479 --> 01:39:04.439 have I think the last movie role. I know he 1527 01:39:04.560 --> 01:39:07.640 was sick at the time when he filmed it, but 1528 01:39:07.680 --> 01:39:09.359 I think he had a cameo in one of the 1529 01:39:11.880 --> 01:39:14.600 or maybe more than one, but he did a final 1530 01:39:14.640 --> 01:39:18.760 Destination movie. But like the last scene that he ever filmed, 1531 01:39:19.720 --> 01:39:23.960 because I saw the clip on YouTube and it's like 1532 01:39:24.039 --> 01:39:29.479 he gives this very inspirational speech almost to the other 1533 01:39:29.640 --> 01:39:34.039 like people in the scene, and I think that was 1534 01:39:34.079 --> 01:39:38.000 the last thing he ever filmed before he passed away. 1535 01:39:46.199 --> 01:39:57.399 Favorite animated movie solo Toy Story and if you want 1536 01:39:57.439 --> 01:40:01.439 to go to d animation like traditional animation, who framed 1537 01:40:01.479 --> 01:40:16.760 Roger Rabbit? But I gotta go Toy Story on that. Yeah, 1538 01:40:16.800 --> 01:40:18.840 that was literally his good It felt like he was 1539 01:40:18.880 --> 01:40:22.119 saying goodbye because it was I think it was something like, 1540 01:40:22.199 --> 01:40:25.920 you know, appreciate life because it'll be over before you 1541 01:40:25.960 --> 01:40:27.239 know it, or say it like. It was a very 1542 01:40:28.279 --> 01:40:31.880 inspirational message. And I think they said like like on 1543 01:40:31.920 --> 01:40:45.119 the set, like it felt like his way of saying goodbye. 1544 01:40:45.479 --> 01:40:50.520 Nord says the channel has fifty six point seven million views. 1545 01:40:53.239 --> 01:41:09.239 Talking about this channel that's amazing. Thank you, Brother Bass Bears, 1546 01:41:10.039 --> 01:41:18.000 Prince or Phil Collins. M I gotta go Phil Collins 1547 01:41:20.560 --> 01:41:26.640 and Matt Fisher. You should have, uh, you should have. 1548 01:41:27.039 --> 01:41:31.880 I assume that means listen. I don't know what that 1549 01:41:31.920 --> 01:41:40.479 word is. Like Satney, you should have Lisatney to Charlie Parker, 1550 01:41:40.560 --> 01:41:48.479 he's amazing. Sola Monster is a Jessica Rabbit merchant. Jessica 1551 01:41:48.560 --> 01:41:52.479 Rabbit man, she had it going on more than Mother Wayne. 1552 01:41:52.720 --> 01:42:05.079 That was a big Jessica Rabbit guy. Darth Panic says 1553 01:42:05.079 --> 01:42:07.279 he's never seen any of the Toy Story movies. Well, 1554 01:42:07.319 --> 01:42:18.319 you need to do something to fix that, my friend. 1555 01:42:19.399 --> 01:42:24.399 Best eighties movie is The Princess Bride. Can't tell you 1556 01:42:24.479 --> 01:42:27.920 how many times I watched that as a kid. That 1557 01:42:27.920 --> 01:42:31.680 that in the goonies at the VHS tapes. Man, I 1558 01:42:31.800 --> 01:42:37.239 must have, God, I must have watched those dozens of times. 1559 01:42:40.239 --> 01:42:45.279 Be the booker Jessica Rabbit versus Mother Wayne. Oh, don't 1560 01:42:45.279 --> 01:43:00.439 make me choose anyway. Good stuff, And in fact, this 1561 01:43:00.680 --> 01:43:04.600 was far more entertaining than SmackDown. I figured it would be. 1562 01:43:05.479 --> 01:43:07.159 It wasn't going to take a whole lot of effort, 1563 01:43:09.039 --> 01:43:14.319 but hopefully you guys were entertained. I will be live 1564 01:43:14.520 --> 01:43:17.640 on Monday night for the Raw Post Show. But before that, 1565 01:43:17.720 --> 01:43:21.399 we have episode nine twenty five that'll be dropping later 1566 01:43:21.479 --> 01:43:26.039 in the afternoon, maybe midday on Sunday. So keep your 1567 01:43:26.039 --> 01:43:29.359 eyes peeled for that on all your usual podcast platforms, 1568 01:43:29.399 --> 01:43:33.640 and share and comment and all that good stuff, and 1569 01:43:33.920 --> 01:43:35.960 hit that like button here on this video on your 1570 01:43:36.000 --> 01:43:39.680 way out. Thank you again for eighty eight thousand subscribers 1571 01:43:39.680 --> 01:43:43.720 this week holiday gets in one last super chat says, 1572 01:43:43.760 --> 01:43:47.760 I recommend watching Cube nineteen ninety seven. It should be 1573 01:43:48.000 --> 01:43:53.319 more mainstream, great movie. I will look into that. I 1574 01:43:53.319 --> 01:43:55.640 don't know what it's about. I don't know if that's 1575 01:43:55.640 --> 01:44:07.399 a horror movie, but I will look into it. Yeah, 1576 01:44:07.760 --> 01:44:09.920 so I was gonna be busy watching the Well. The 1577 01:44:09.960 --> 01:44:12.760 reason my watch list is so long and there's so 1578 01:44:12.880 --> 01:44:15.560 much on there is because I just never I never 1579 01:44:15.560 --> 01:44:18.159 seem to leave myself enough time to actually sit around 1580 01:44:18.199 --> 01:44:22.000 and watch a fucking two and a half hour movie. 1581 01:44:22.359 --> 01:44:25.039 So the list. The list has grown between TV shows 1582 01:44:25.039 --> 01:44:28.560 and movies, the list has grown quite a bit. Actually, 1583 01:44:28.880 --> 01:44:31.279 let me see hold on a second before I leave, 1584 01:44:34.960 --> 01:44:36.680 let me see if I have the list here. I've 1585 01:44:36.720 --> 01:44:41.600 been keeping well. I won't read the entire list to you, 1586 01:44:41.640 --> 01:44:44.680 but I I like, I've jotted down a bunch of stuff. 1587 01:44:45.399 --> 01:44:50.520 John Wick. I've never seen a John Wick movie. I 1588 01:44:50.560 --> 01:44:54.720 have John now I don't like. I don't like animals. 1589 01:44:54.720 --> 01:44:57.279 Cats are dogs, cats are dogs being harmed in movies, 1590 01:44:57.319 --> 01:44:59.239 and I heard that could be an issue there, so 1591 01:45:00.640 --> 01:45:02.800 I don't know. I don't know about that, but that's 1592 01:45:02.840 --> 01:45:06.680 on my list. There's a TV show on Netflix called 1593 01:45:06.840 --> 01:45:09.640 Travelers that look kind of interesting that I jotted down 1594 01:45:09.680 --> 01:45:17.000 the name of. What else did I jot down here? 1595 01:45:20.760 --> 01:45:26.560 The Batman? Obviously. There's a TV show called Orphan Black 1596 01:45:27.479 --> 01:45:29.439 that I've heard really good things about. I have that 1597 01:45:29.520 --> 01:45:35.319 on my list, and a Girl from Nowhere on Netflix, 1598 01:45:35.359 --> 01:45:43.159 which I think is a Korean show. There's a Korean Oh, 1599 01:45:43.159 --> 01:45:48.600 it's like a historical zombie drama on Netflix called Kingdom. 1600 01:45:49.439 --> 01:45:52.880 I heard about that one ar Kane. Somebody asked me 1601 01:45:52.920 --> 01:45:55.960 before about animated movies and animated shows. I know there's 1602 01:45:55.960 --> 01:45:58.640 a show called Arkane. I want to check that out. 1603 01:46:00.079 --> 01:46:07.439 Boys Tulsa King there's the Substance. I mentioned the substance 1604 01:46:08.399 --> 01:46:11.880 when Evil Lurks is another movie I heard about. And 1605 01:46:12.319 --> 01:46:15.319 Strange Darling is a movie that came out last year. 1606 01:46:16.600 --> 01:46:18.680 So that isn't everything, but that's some of the stuff 1607 01:46:18.680 --> 01:46:23.880 that I have on my list. So I got a 1608 01:46:23.880 --> 01:46:33.680 lot to catch up on. As you can tell, I 1609 01:46:33.760 --> 01:46:36.239 smoke a lot of weeds. His Big Show and Kin 1610 01:46:36.399 --> 01:46:39.279 come out to face them the raw after he's still 1611 01:46:39.319 --> 01:46:42.159 going on with He's still going on with this scenario, 1612 01:46:44.239 --> 01:46:50.079 Big Show and Kin against Ryeback and Collie. What seventh 1613 01:46:50.159 --> 01:47:01.920 circle of Hell did you pull this out from? Oh 1614 01:47:01.960 --> 01:47:05.840 and there's another one. There's a David Cronenberg movie that 1615 01:47:05.920 --> 01:47:10.479 I never saw, believe it or not, Video Drome, And 1616 01:47:10.600 --> 01:47:12.479 don't know how I missed that one, but I gotta 1617 01:47:12.479 --> 01:47:18.000 watch video Drome. Cabin in the Wood. Yeah, I saw 1618 01:47:18.079 --> 01:47:21.279 Cabin in the Woods many years ago. Jake with the 1619 01:47:21.319 --> 01:47:24.479 six Bucks, Good morning solo from England. We'll listen later. 1620 01:47:24.880 --> 01:47:27.560 We'll be traveling for three hours to watch my soccer team, 1621 01:47:27.600 --> 01:47:30.439 who have not won in their last fourteen games. Well, 1622 01:47:30.520 --> 01:47:32.840 your soccer team and my Mets have something in common, 1623 01:47:32.880 --> 01:47:35.439 because the Mets have lost fourteen of their last sixteen, 1624 01:47:37.319 --> 01:47:41.039 one of the worst teams in all of baseball, and 1625 01:47:41.119 --> 01:47:44.279 bas Beers says, I still need to watch Reservoir Dogs 1626 01:47:44.319 --> 01:47:48.800 and a Bronx Tale. Two fine movies. I think you'll 1627 01:47:48.920 --> 01:47:57.239 enjoy them both. Watch Korean Old Boy Solo Monster. It's 1628 01:47:57.239 --> 01:48:01.680 a good film. Yeah, there's a lot of Korean TV 1629 01:48:01.800 --> 01:48:07.399 series in movies that I want to There's some TV 1630 01:48:07.479 --> 01:48:09.439 shows I've watched like I don't know what it is, 1631 01:48:11.279 --> 01:48:14.840 and I found this with squid Game too, but there 1632 01:48:14.960 --> 01:48:21.800 are There's just there's something about these Korean television shows 1633 01:48:23.119 --> 01:48:28.359 where they have a knack for really like punching you 1634 01:48:28.439 --> 01:48:32.840 in the heart and like getting you very emotional, like 1635 01:48:32.880 --> 01:48:36.560 they know what strings the pull on it actually very 1636 01:48:36.600 --> 01:48:38.840 well done the way they're able to do it. But 1637 01:48:38.880 --> 01:48:42.359 then there's also Korean horror, like I think Trained to Busan, 1638 01:48:43.079 --> 01:48:47.199 which I saw. I think that's a Korean film. So yeah, 1639 01:48:47.199 --> 01:48:58.640 anything in that realm, like I'm interested in checking out. Yeah, 1640 01:48:59.279 --> 01:49:03.239 squid Game is I love squid Game. But if you 1641 01:49:03.680 --> 01:49:07.279 like squid Game, there's a show called Alice in Borderland 1642 01:49:07.279 --> 01:49:10.119 which is also great, and there's a third season. I 1643 01:49:10.159 --> 01:49:11.960 didn't think there was even going to be another season. 1644 01:49:11.960 --> 01:49:16.319 There's a third season coming out next month, so that's 1645 01:49:16.359 --> 01:49:20.520 on Netflix. That's one I think you'll enjoy. It's in 1646 01:49:20.560 --> 01:49:24.399 the same spirit as Squid Game. I enjoyed that one 1647 01:49:24.399 --> 01:49:26.760 a lot. Yeah, and then we have the final season 1648 01:49:26.800 --> 01:49:34.119 of Stranger Things coming later this year. I spoke a 1649 01:49:34.119 --> 01:49:36.000 lot of we. He says, who can book worse than I? 1650 01:49:37.279 --> 01:49:40.039 Hashtag terrible? Be the book well, I and be the booker. 1651 01:49:40.079 --> 01:49:47.119 I've booked a few pretty horrible matches myself, So Doctor Scorpio, 1652 01:49:47.159 --> 01:49:50.159 I got to finish watching Kingdom, enjoying it so far. 1653 01:49:50.199 --> 01:49:55.960 What about Tulsa king with Sylvester Stallone? How's that one? 1654 01:49:56.520 --> 01:50:01.800 Bass Beers says, Old Boy is a must? Okay, I 1655 01:50:01.840 --> 01:50:14.119 got it. I ever seen blood Sport from the eighties. 1656 01:50:14.159 --> 01:50:28.840 I saw the original blood Sport and my daddy, you 1657 01:50:28.880 --> 01:50:33.479 guarthe says. My wife can't stop watching Korea Netflix shows. 1658 01:50:33.560 --> 01:50:39.319 She's obsessed. I don't blame her. It's like when I 1659 01:50:39.359 --> 01:50:42.119 was finished watching the first season of squid Game, it 1660 01:50:42.239 --> 01:50:44.680 recommended all these other shows that are kind of similar, 1661 01:50:45.560 --> 01:50:52.680 and now I'm like seeking them out, can't get enough 1662 01:50:52.720 --> 01:50:58.079 of them. There's another one too, It's called All of 1663 01:50:58.159 --> 01:51:00.800 Us Are Dead. I think it's a It's like a 1664 01:51:00.880 --> 01:51:03.960 Korean high school zombie series where they're all trapped in 1665 01:51:04.000 --> 01:51:08.000 like a high school. I have that on my list. 1666 01:51:16.840 --> 01:51:19.239 Did I watch Oranges The New Black? I watched the 1667 01:51:19.279 --> 01:51:22.880 first two seasons of Orange Is the New Black when 1668 01:51:22.920 --> 01:51:25.880 it first came out, and then I fell off, So 1669 01:51:25.920 --> 01:51:27.880 I don't even know how many seasons they ended up having. 1670 01:51:27.960 --> 01:51:31.359 I just I watched the first two, so I don't 1671 01:51:31.359 --> 01:51:32.680 know if I should pick up with it or not. 1672 01:51:40.560 --> 01:51:46.279 You know what, I never saw bird Box. I never 1673 01:51:46.359 --> 01:51:48.119 saw I never saw it. It was like that was 1674 01:51:48.159 --> 01:51:50.279 like all the all the rage when it came out. 1675 01:51:50.279 --> 01:52:01.479 Everybody was talking about bird Box. Having your wife watch 1676 01:52:01.560 --> 01:52:07.279 Korean Netflix is better than having your wife. Where did 1677 01:52:07.319 --> 01:52:19.079 it go? It just vanished? Ej it vanished. Well, since 1678 01:52:19.119 --> 01:52:23.039 I can't finish what that message said, having your wife 1679 01:52:23.039 --> 01:52:27.159 watch Korean Netflix is better than having your wife. That's 1680 01:52:28.079 --> 01:52:31.800 that's true. That is true. We just kind of leave 1681 01:52:31.840 --> 01:52:37.039 it there. I guess that's that's a true statement. Be awful. 1682 01:52:37.079 --> 01:52:40.079 If somebody else had your wife, I would imagine, right, 1683 01:52:40.520 --> 01:52:45.800 I'm not going to stand for that. I didn't miss much, 1684 01:52:45.880 --> 01:52:47.680 all right, So you're telling me I should not put 1685 01:52:47.680 --> 01:52:53.920 bird Box on my on my list. Bird Box sucks. 1686 01:52:55.479 --> 01:53:02.399 That's a shame. I think I'll go watch to the 1687 01:53:02.439 --> 01:53:07.880 Net with that woman from the Bush. The man from Rio. 1688 01:53:07.920 --> 01:53:10.640 Who do you see Orton feuding with next? Well, he's 1689 01:53:10.680 --> 01:53:12.359 got a feud with Cody. But I mean as far 1690 01:53:12.399 --> 01:53:17.920 as who's next, I don't know. I mean, we've already seen. 1691 01:53:18.039 --> 01:53:26.840 We've already seen Orton and Drew, Orton and Solo. I mean, no, no, 1692 01:53:29.079 --> 01:53:30.880 Orton and Jacob could be fun, but what would be 1693 01:53:30.880 --> 01:53:36.680 the impetus for it, Doctor Scorpio, Yes, all of us 1694 01:53:36.720 --> 01:53:39.359 are dead? Was really good. I enjoyed it, though I 1695 01:53:39.479 --> 01:53:43.159 kind of regret watching it late at night. Lol. Still 1696 01:53:43.199 --> 01:53:54.199 waiting for season two, but nothing yet. Oh god, you know, 1697 01:53:54.239 --> 01:53:57.000 I just realized there's two episodes I never got to 1698 01:53:57.159 --> 01:54:01.359 of the new season of Black Mirror. Have them downloaded 1699 01:54:01.359 --> 01:54:03.680 on my iPad for the next time I fly. Next 1700 01:54:03.680 --> 01:54:07.920 time I fly out, probably to Chicago for House of Glory. 1701 01:54:08.119 --> 01:54:13.720 I'll probably knock them off on that trip. I don't 1702 01:54:13.720 --> 01:54:17.439 even remember which ones it is because I skipped around, 1703 01:54:17.520 --> 01:54:20.319 so like, I saw the finale episode, which was that 1704 01:54:20.439 --> 01:54:25.279 ninety minute one on the uss McAllister, is that what 1705 01:54:25.319 --> 01:54:28.800 it was? I saw that one? But yet there's still 1706 01:54:28.800 --> 01:54:39.359 two episodes I didn't see from the new season. Ah, 1707 01:54:39.399 --> 01:54:41.319 he resent it. Here we go, I said, having your 1708 01:54:41.359 --> 01:54:44.159 wife watched Korean Netflix is better than having your wife 1709 01:54:44.159 --> 01:54:50.560 watch Hunting Wives. My original comment got cut off, so 1710 01:54:50.640 --> 01:55:00.479 I resent it is Tremor's good. Tremor's is. Yes, you 1711 01:55:00.479 --> 01:55:12.520 should watch Tremors when life gives you. Tangerines is a 1712 01:55:12.560 --> 01:55:19.479 recommendation for you from the wife. Okay, all right. It 1713 01:55:19.640 --> 01:55:21.399 was a movie though, won for Best Picture a few 1714 01:55:21.439 --> 01:55:24.479 years ago, that I'd like to see everything everywhere, all 1715 01:55:24.520 --> 01:55:31.640 at once. You want a good movie to watch, you 1716 01:55:31.640 --> 01:55:35.119 should check out Collateral with Jamie Fox and Tom Cruise. 1717 01:55:37.760 --> 01:55:39.000 I don't know what made me think of that, but 1718 01:55:39.039 --> 01:55:42.159 it's a great movie. Joseph Stewart, were you a fan 1719 01:55:42.319 --> 01:55:46.479 of Chris O'Donnell as Robin. Yeah? I liked him as Robin. 1720 01:55:46.520 --> 01:55:59.920 I thought he was a good Robin. Kevin Bacon was 1721 01:56:00.039 --> 01:56:04.560 great in Tremors. Kevin Bacon was in the First Friday, 1722 01:56:04.600 --> 01:56:09.000 the Thirteenth movie Got Killed. He was also a very 1723 01:56:09.000 --> 01:56:24.600 good in hollow Man. Joseph Stewart is more obsessed with 1724 01:56:24.720 --> 01:56:31.920 Batman Forever than me. Wow, he loves that movie. He 1725 01:56:31.960 --> 01:56:34.159 definitely loves that. He's got another one here. Do you 1726 01:56:34.199 --> 01:56:39.159 remember Seal's song Fly Like an Eagle from the Space 1727 01:56:39.279 --> 01:56:44.039 Jam movie. I remember the song, not necessarily because it 1728 01:56:44.079 --> 01:56:45.760 was from the Space Jam movie, but yes, I do 1729 01:56:45.880 --> 01:56:57.720 remember the song. Yes, Kevin Bacon played John Cena in 1730 01:56:57.840 --> 01:57:10.479 Hollow Man, Yes he did, then he turned heel. Matt 1731 01:57:10.479 --> 01:57:15.319 Fisher says, Batman Forever is the best one. You are incorrect, sir, 1732 01:57:16.640 --> 01:57:19.399 That would be The Dark Knight. I mean, if you're 1733 01:57:19.439 --> 01:57:21.680 lumping all the Batman movies in together, that would be 1734 01:57:21.720 --> 01:57:28.680 The Dark Knight. And then right behind the Dark Knight 1735 01:57:29.560 --> 01:57:38.199 is the first Burton Batman. Jack Nicholson was a great joker, 1736 01:57:41.960 --> 01:57:45.840 second best joker of all of them. Can't put him 1737 01:57:45.840 --> 01:57:57.520 above Heath Ledger, but he's right below. Bass Beers says, 1738 01:57:57.640 --> 01:58:07.880 the House that Jack built. Matt Dill great film. Anybody 1739 01:58:07.920 --> 01:58:21.079 ever see The Stepfather with Terry O'Quinn or The Dentist 1740 01:58:22.319 --> 01:58:24.479 with the actor I forgot the actor's name, but he 1741 01:58:24.560 --> 01:58:29.800 played He played Benny on La Law. He was the dentist. 1742 01:58:30.319 --> 01:58:34.800 Now we're getting into these b like b eighties, early nineties, 1743 01:58:35.560 --> 01:58:41.800 like horror movies, kind of obscure, but like still really good. 1744 01:58:46.600 --> 01:58:49.680 Mask of the Phantasm is the best non Nolan Batman movie. 1745 01:58:49.720 --> 01:58:52.359 Mask of the Phantasm is Actually that's a great that's 1746 01:58:52.399 --> 01:58:56.159 a great animated movie that I saw. That's a great 1747 01:58:56.159 --> 01:59:02.920 one with Jimmy Smith's and Blair Underwood. La Law. That 1748 01:59:03.000 --> 01:59:05.359 show was awesome. Yeah, it was that. That's that's the 1749 01:59:05.479 --> 01:59:11.039 LA Law. I'm talking about eight seasons. All eight seasons 1750 01:59:11.039 --> 01:59:18.079 are on Hulu. Corbyn Burnson, you want to know what's crazy? 1751 01:59:19.720 --> 01:59:22.760 One of the title characters on LA Law. It's a 1752 01:59:22.800 --> 01:59:25.119 story about a law firm in L A. Right. I 1753 01:59:25.199 --> 01:59:27.680 know who would have thought, but like one of the 1754 01:59:29.039 --> 01:59:32.119 like the lead partners in the firm, that's a firm. 1755 01:59:32.159 --> 01:59:34.399 The firm name in the show is called Mackenzie Brackman, 1756 01:59:35.640 --> 01:59:40.880 so Leland Mackenzie, right, he's one of the managing partner 1757 01:59:41.000 --> 01:59:45.640 or he's the managing partner. The guy who plays Leland 1758 01:59:45.720 --> 01:59:50.720 McKenzie on L A Law is the doctor or the 1759 01:59:50.760 --> 01:59:55.399 scientist guy. I think it was a doctor in the thing. 1760 01:59:57.920 --> 02:00:00.520 Like when I when I realized it was the same person, 1761 02:00:00.560 --> 02:00:06.840 I was kind of floored. So that was kind of 1762 02:00:06.840 --> 02:00:14.520 crazy to find out. Have I seen The Penguin on HBO? No, 1763 02:00:14.880 --> 02:00:17.880 I'm intentionally not watching it because I need to see 1764 02:00:17.920 --> 02:00:27.840 The Batman first, which I still have not done. These 1765 02:00:27.880 --> 02:00:37.840 conversations are infinitely better than Smack down. I don't disagree. 1766 02:00:38.079 --> 02:00:42.399 I'm in a much better mood now. Joseph says, did 1767 02:00:42.439 --> 02:00:45.600 you know Danny DeVito was the voice of the villain 1768 02:00:45.720 --> 02:00:51.520 Monster in Space Jam? No, I did not know that. 1769 02:00:51.600 --> 02:00:54.239 I do know that he is the voice of Jersey 1770 02:00:54.319 --> 02:00:57.560 Mike's sub Boy Sandwiches, But I did not know that. 1771 02:01:02.520 --> 02:01:05.960 Wilfit No, no, no, no, no no. You're thinking of Wilford 1772 02:01:06.079 --> 02:01:10.119 Brimley was also in the thing. But that's not That's 1773 02:01:10.119 --> 02:01:17.800 not the character I'm referring to. Have you ever played 1774 02:01:17.840 --> 02:01:21.720 any of the Batman Arkham games? Funny you mentioned that 1775 02:01:21.800 --> 02:01:25.880 there was a steam sail about a month ago, and 1776 02:01:25.960 --> 02:01:30.720 I bought Batman Arkham Knight. I think that's the name 1777 02:01:30.760 --> 02:01:33.399 of the game. I bought Batman Arkham Knight for like 1778 02:01:33.439 --> 02:01:39.840 three bucks, but I have not installed it yet, so 1779 02:01:39.960 --> 02:01:42.319 it's just kind of sitting there. But I had, I 1780 02:01:42.399 --> 02:01:44.159 mean for that, for that deal, I had to get 1781 02:01:44.159 --> 02:01:47.640 in on it. I got that, I got RoboCop Rogue City. 1782 02:01:49.520 --> 02:01:54.600 What else did I grab? I grabbed Need for one 1783 02:01:54.640 --> 02:01:57.880 of the Need for speed games, and then I grabbed 1784 02:02:00.399 --> 02:02:05.199 oh god, what else did I grab? Oh? Mortal Kombat eleven? Yeah, 1785 02:02:05.239 --> 02:02:09.279 I grabbed them all. I haven't played any of them yet, 1786 02:02:09.840 --> 02:02:12.319 but when I find time, they're there waiting for me. Though. 1787 02:02:13.800 --> 02:02:17.920 Justin Hesse says, Larry Drake was Benny on La Law. 1788 02:02:17.960 --> 02:02:20.359 Thank you, Yes, I think Larry Drake. I think he 1789 02:02:20.479 --> 02:02:23.800 won at least one Emmy Award for playing Benny on 1790 02:02:23.840 --> 02:02:32.920 the show. He's very good. Can you recommend a horror 1791 02:02:32.920 --> 02:02:36.319 movie for non horror fans? It's actually kind of funny 1792 02:02:36.359 --> 02:02:39.319 you asked that question. I would recommend Weapons, which is 1793 02:02:39.399 --> 02:02:41.920 out right now in theaters. I just saw it yesterday 1794 02:02:43.079 --> 02:02:45.199 and I will talk about it on the sound off. 1795 02:02:46.720 --> 02:02:49.680 I actually think that Weapons is a really good horror 1796 02:02:49.760 --> 02:02:52.560 film for a non horror fan because there actually is 1797 02:02:52.640 --> 02:02:58.279 humor in it. It was not this sort of deep 1798 02:02:58.720 --> 02:03:03.000 dark horror like I thought it was gonna be. I 1799 02:03:03.039 --> 02:03:05.039 think if you're not really a horror fan, that you 1800 02:03:05.039 --> 02:03:12.960 would enjoy watching that movie Hunt, Oh my God, Hunt 1801 02:03:13.000 --> 02:03:16.039 to Kill with Steve Austin. I saw a lot of 1802 02:03:16.079 --> 02:03:19.520 those like Steve Austin straight to DVD movies that he made. 1803 02:03:20.000 --> 02:03:21.880 One of them was Hunt to Kill, and I love 1804 02:03:21.880 --> 02:03:24.119 it because, like the very last scene of the movie 1805 02:03:24.720 --> 02:03:26.680 when when he kills the bad when he kills the 1806 02:03:26.720 --> 02:03:32.359 bad guy, like it's so dramatic and the camera like 1807 02:03:33.760 --> 02:03:35.920 zooms in on him, and it's like when I hunt, 1808 02:03:36.880 --> 02:03:40.239 I Hunt to kill, and like it's like the most prototypical, 1809 02:03:40.319 --> 02:03:43.399 like cheesy eighties ending that you could think of, but 1810 02:03:43.520 --> 02:03:47.359 like it's perfect. It's perfect for the film When I hunt, 1811 02:03:47.920 --> 02:03:52.079 I Hunt to kill. Oh my god, it's so bad, 1812 02:03:52.079 --> 02:04:00.920 it's good. Ah Yes, dark Man Hulk Hoke least favorite 1813 02:04:00.920 --> 02:04:04.319 movie M and M with the twenty eight dollars super 1814 02:04:04.399 --> 02:04:08.560 Chat says, first off, thank you Solo fam for keeping 1815 02:04:08.560 --> 02:04:13.119 me positive. My aunt's funeral is next Saturday, second in 1816 02:04:13.199 --> 02:04:18.680 honor of Joseph Stewart, who's the Batman of WWE. And finally, 1817 02:04:18.720 --> 02:04:21.880 will aw give us a swerve and Hangman versus MJF. 1818 02:04:22.079 --> 02:04:24.680 Now they're giving you a swerve against Okada. Come on man. 1819 02:04:27.439 --> 02:04:31.680 First of all, again, condolences. I know you mentioned that previously, 1820 02:04:31.720 --> 02:04:38.239 but condolences on the passing of your aunt the Batman 1821 02:04:38.319 --> 02:04:54.119 of WWE Undertaker seemed to make the most sense to me. Well, 1822 02:04:54.119 --> 02:04:55.960 they give us a swerve in the main event at 1823 02:04:56.119 --> 02:04:58.880 Forbidden Door, They're gonna have to give us something because 1824 02:04:59.199 --> 02:05:03.279 I don't don't see Hangman losing the title yet. But 1825 02:05:03.319 --> 02:05:09.239 you can't just beat MJF and move on. I'll go 1826 02:05:09.319 --> 02:05:12.439 through my forbidden door predictions this Sunday on the podcast, 1827 02:05:17.920 --> 02:05:23.000 Vince is Bruce Wayne. Oh my god, Vince is the 1828 02:05:23.039 --> 02:05:37.039 puppet from Saul ww W B Universe w Matt Fisher. 1829 02:05:39.199 --> 02:05:44.119 This better work? What popped up? So? I think it did? 1830 02:05:47.560 --> 02:05:52.000 Joseph Steward, do you remember Raven versus Vampire's dog collar? 1831 02:05:52.039 --> 02:05:56.720 I think he means Vampiro. Is there a vampire in TNA? 1832 02:05:57.800 --> 02:06:07.199 Vampiro's dog collar match in TNA? I do not. Also, 1833 02:06:07.239 --> 02:06:09.840 what is your favorite scene in Space Jam and your 1834 02:06:09.880 --> 02:06:18.159 favorite your favorite right character in space I gotta tell 1835 02:06:18.199 --> 02:06:21.760 you I saw Space Jam after it first came out. 1836 02:06:21.840 --> 02:06:25.520 I have not seen it since. I remember nothing of 1837 02:06:25.600 --> 02:06:27.840 Space Jam. I have no favorite scene, I have no 1838 02:06:27.920 --> 02:06:30.680 favorite bugs. Bunny is my favorite character in Space Jam. 1839 02:06:31.760 --> 02:06:34.199 The best I can do for you. I don't remember much. 1840 02:06:36.079 --> 02:06:37.920 It didn't leave that much of an impression on me. 1841 02:06:40.039 --> 02:06:44.279 Bes Beers. Is Coco be Ware walked so mister Iguana 1842 02:06:44.760 --> 02:06:51.159 could run? Well? Mister iguana has a dead iguana on 1843 02:06:51.199 --> 02:06:53.880 his shoulder, but Coco he had a live bird every 1844 02:06:53.920 --> 02:06:55.920 time he came out to the ring. Rest in peace. 1845 02:06:55.960 --> 02:07:07.279 Frankie he burned up in a fire years ago. Got 1846 02:07:07.359 --> 02:07:09.720 those birds? Man, if you have a bird, I mean 1847 02:07:09.720 --> 02:07:11.439 maybe it depends on what kind of bird you have. 1848 02:07:12.199 --> 02:07:16.479 I don't know how it is, but like cockateils and parrots. 1849 02:07:17.680 --> 02:07:20.520 But man, if you have a bird, like you got 1850 02:07:20.520 --> 02:07:22.199 to be willing to put the work. That's a lot 1851 02:07:22.239 --> 02:07:26.079 of work. And they live forever, like you'll die before 1852 02:07:26.119 --> 02:07:29.000 they do. But I have a couple of friends who 1853 02:07:29.000 --> 02:07:31.880 have birds, and it's it's a lot, it's a lot 1854 02:07:31.920 --> 02:07:37.600 of work. Joseph Stewart says, Dominic Mysterio as Batman and 1855 02:07:37.640 --> 02:07:41.560 Live Morgan as Catwoman. There ain't nothing about Dominic Mysteria 1856 02:07:41.640 --> 02:07:47.640 that screams Batman. Dominic would actually be better for Robin 1857 02:07:47.760 --> 02:07:52.640 than he would Batman. Live Morgan could be poison ivy. 1858 02:07:53.520 --> 02:08:00.119 And also, who is your top five favorite Looney tunes? Well, 1859 02:08:00.159 --> 02:08:04.880 you gotta have bugs, you gotta have Daffy, Uh, you 1860 02:08:04.920 --> 02:08:08.680 gotta have Sylvester, the cats, you gotta have the road Runner, 1861 02:08:08.800 --> 02:08:17.479 and you've got to have the coyote. Why didn't Frankie 1862 02:08:17.600 --> 02:08:21.199 just fly away? Well because Coco told him if he did, 1863 02:08:21.199 --> 02:08:25.560 he was gonna beat that ass. So he stayed put. 1864 02:08:28.720 --> 02:08:30.640 He's not top five, but I have to give a 1865 02:08:30.640 --> 02:08:33.159 shout out. I have to give an honorable mention to 1866 02:08:33.399 --> 02:08:39.600 Marvin the Martian. Joseph Steward. Do you remember Lola Bunny 1867 02:08:39.720 --> 02:08:47.000 from Space Jam? I can't say that I do. Ah, 1868 02:08:47.079 --> 02:08:54.000 Yosemite Sam. Yeah, now again not top five, but Yo, 1869 02:08:54.039 --> 02:09:01.520 Semity Sam is a good one. Sylvester and tweety Pisco 1870 02:09:01.920 --> 02:09:07.960 Pisco ninety five? Ever watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit? No 1871 02:09:08.119 --> 02:09:12.159 doubt the greatest cartoon crossover in history. Too bad, something 1872 02:09:12.239 --> 02:09:15.800 like it will never happen again. Yeah. I commented on 1873 02:09:15.840 --> 02:09:18.640 it earlier. I said it's outside of toy story. It's 1874 02:09:18.680 --> 02:09:26.960 my favorite. Uh again, it's not really an anime. Okay, 1875 02:09:27.800 --> 02:09:31.399 it's not really an animated film technically, but it's got 1876 02:09:31.439 --> 02:09:35.920 animation in it, so I consider it to be an 1877 02:09:35.960 --> 02:09:42.840 animated film. Oh, you've got to be kidding me. You 1878 02:09:43.000 --> 02:09:46.920 have to be kidding me. What are you doing to 1879 02:09:46.960 --> 02:09:56.199 me these pre modes? Marvin the Martian was the referee 1880 02:09:56.239 --> 02:09:59.479 in Space Jam. Question Mark, you're asking me in the 1881 02:09:59.520 --> 02:10:02.560 form of a question, Joseph, I have no idea. I'm 1882 02:10:02.600 --> 02:10:10.039 relying on you for that information. Eminem says, what's your 1883 02:10:10.079 --> 02:10:12.319 funniest booking that you did on Be the Booker. I 1884 02:10:12.359 --> 02:10:15.600 think you already know my favorite you versus Goldberg in 1885 02:10:15.640 --> 02:10:19.880 a scaffold match. We do need to see that at 1886 02:10:20.039 --> 02:10:22.760 h og And No, we really don't. I'm sure it 1887 02:10:22.760 --> 02:10:24.880 would sell tickets, but we really don't need to see that. 1888 02:10:25.399 --> 02:10:30.680 Thankfully he's retired now. Naya is about the one person 1889 02:10:30.720 --> 02:10:34.159 that will work with Tiffany. It feels like it, doesn't it. 1890 02:10:34.199 --> 02:10:35.920 Maybe nobody else wants to work with her. I don't know. 1891 02:10:35.920 --> 02:10:37.399 I don't know why they keep going back to her 1892 02:10:37.439 --> 02:10:41.199 and Nya. I really don't. Basse Beers says, this better 1893 02:10:41.279 --> 02:10:47.479 work another Be the Booker. Matt Fisher. Actually Base Beers 1894 02:10:47.560 --> 02:10:51.640 with the twenty five and then Matt Fisher with the 1895 02:10:51.680 --> 02:10:54.640 nineteen ninety nine just put us ten out of ten. 1896 02:10:56.239 --> 02:10:58.359 I wasn't even paying attention to that. I was so 1897 02:10:58.439 --> 02:11:00.840 engrossed in the conversation here that we just hit a 1898 02:11:00.880 --> 02:11:04.000 bonus round of Be the Booker. Do you believe this? 1899 02:11:09.520 --> 02:11:14.039 Matt says, Do you remember Tiny Tunes? Of course? I 1900 02:11:14.039 --> 02:11:20.960 remember Animaniacs too had a very catchy song and retro 1901 02:11:21.039 --> 02:11:24.039 koh if Space Jam two was a pro wrestling themed 1902 02:11:24.119 --> 02:11:27.479 movie and you were the Booker. Who's going over? And 1903 02:11:27.520 --> 02:11:31.399 why does it have to be Bugs Bunny? Well, because 1904 02:11:31.399 --> 02:11:35.000 Bugs is like Hogan, He's got creative control in his contract. 1905 02:11:35.560 --> 02:11:44.439 He's always going to go over no matter what. But 1906 02:11:44.560 --> 02:11:48.880 since we hit the bonus goal, I suppose that means 1907 02:11:48.880 --> 02:11:52.399 that we are we are in for Be the Booker 1908 02:11:52.439 --> 02:11:56.279 all over again. So let's go ahead. Turn off the drum, 1909 02:11:56.359 --> 02:12:00.760 rang b listen to the sweet adult sit tones of 1910 02:12:00.800 --> 02:12:04.560 one Noah Mark. We are headed for round number two 1911 02:12:07.239 --> 02:12:09.279 of Be the Booker. I didn't think that this was 1912 02:12:09.319 --> 02:12:20.359 going to happen, but here we are. All right, We'll 1913 02:12:20.359 --> 02:12:29.680 throw in some stipulations for you guys. We got barbed 1914 02:12:29.720 --> 02:12:37.039 wires steel cage match. Oh Man, Tony Kahan's Spidey senses 1915 02:12:37.039 --> 02:12:41.399 are tingling wherever he is right now. A barbed wire 1916 02:12:41.520 --> 02:12:44.399 steel cage tag team match is what we're doing. Because 1917 02:12:44.800 --> 02:12:49.960 we always start with the tag teams, so why should 1918 02:12:50.039 --> 02:13:01.000 this be any different? Oh my god, I'm having deja vus. 1919 02:13:03.720 --> 02:13:07.640 It is the Quebecers for the second time tonight. They 1920 02:13:07.680 --> 02:13:15.520 have returned. I guess that they want to pull double duty, 1921 02:13:15.520 --> 02:13:25.000 all right, Okay, then in a barbed wire steel cage match, 1922 02:13:25.960 --> 02:13:41.439 the Quebeca is against pretty deadly. Let's try again. Ooh, 1923 02:13:41.479 --> 02:13:48.880 all right, Solemn Monster's choice for the women's match. Solemn 1924 02:13:48.960 --> 02:13:53.039 Monster's choice. What stipulation are we going to go with? 1925 02:13:53.399 --> 02:13:56.600 I don't know. I wasn't expecting to have to make 1926 02:13:56.640 --> 02:13:59.119 a choice here. Why are you giving me? Why are 1927 02:13:59.159 --> 02:14:01.840 you giving me the choice? I can't make a decision. 1928 02:14:03.439 --> 02:14:05.000 That's why we do this, so I don't have to 1929 02:14:05.000 --> 02:14:12.399 make a decision. Well, I'll tell you what Solomster's choices 1930 02:14:12.439 --> 02:14:18.159 that we choose again, that's my choice. I wasn't prepared 1931 02:14:18.199 --> 02:14:24.600 for this. CM Punk is the referee. Oh, he's gonna 1932 02:14:24.680 --> 02:14:27.800 enjoy this. We know CM punk is a fan of 1933 02:14:27.840 --> 02:14:32.319 the ladies, so he gets to referee this women's match here. 1934 02:14:32.399 --> 02:14:39.399 No one is more excited than CM Punk. CM Punk 1935 02:14:39.840 --> 02:14:46.079 is the referee. Gail Kim is on one side of 1936 02:14:46.159 --> 02:14:54.720 the ring. It's an impact knockout legend there in. Gail 1937 02:14:54.840 --> 02:15:01.199 Kim and Gail Kim will be wrestling Charlotte Flair with 1938 02:15:01.439 --> 02:15:10.720 cmpunk as the guest referee. Charlotte Flair and Gail Kim 1939 02:15:10.840 --> 02:15:14.319 should be a very good match, and I'm sure cmpunk 1940 02:15:14.359 --> 02:15:20.880 will call it right down the middle. And it is 1941 02:15:21.039 --> 02:15:29.319 time for the main event. One more match and it 1942 02:15:29.399 --> 02:15:35.399 will be contested inside Big Blue. I love me some 1943 02:15:35.560 --> 02:15:41.640 Big Blue. Yes, the Big Blue Cage, the Big Blue Cage. 1944 02:15:43.800 --> 02:15:51.159 You love to see it, all right, Who's going inside 1945 02:15:51.199 --> 02:15:58.760 Big Blue? John Cena? You know, as long as John 1946 02:15:58.840 --> 02:16:02.319 Cena has been in he's never been inside the Big 1947 02:16:02.439 --> 02:16:07.520 Blue Cage or the Big Black Cage which they used once, right, 1948 02:16:07.640 --> 02:16:14.079 that was for Austin and Vince John Cena. This is 1949 02:16:14.159 --> 02:16:20.159 his retirement match, everybody. This is John Cena's retirement match 1950 02:16:21.920 --> 02:16:34.719 in Big Blue against Nigel McGinnis. Nigel McGinnis, Desmond Wolf, 1951 02:16:37.920 --> 02:16:39.760 you know, in honor of one of my favorite Big 1952 02:16:39.840 --> 02:16:44.840 Blue Cage matches, which was Rock Mankind and Ken shamrock 1953 02:16:45.719 --> 02:16:51.120 at Breakdown in your House September nineteen ninety eight. I'm 1954 02:16:51.200 --> 02:16:53.479 going to since I'm the booker, I could do whatever 1955 02:16:53.559 --> 02:16:56.440 I want. I'm going to turn this into a triple 1956 02:16:56.479 --> 02:16:59.959 threat match. We're gonna have triple threat match inside Big Blue. 1957 02:17:00.840 --> 02:17:10.760 That's what we're gonna do. John Cena, Nigel McGinnis and Cain. 1958 02:17:14.319 --> 02:17:18.719 This is the shittier version of Cain. God. I hate 1959 02:17:18.920 --> 02:17:22.159 I hate that mask. I hate that mask with every 1960 02:17:22.239 --> 02:17:28.159 fiber of my being but John Cena Cain and Nigel McGinnis. 1961 02:17:28.520 --> 02:17:30.799 There you go, that's your main event and be the booker. 1962 02:17:35.920 --> 02:17:41.840 This guy Brian is wishing for ripo man, wishing for 1963 02:17:41.920 --> 02:17:48.600 an end to be the booker. Joseph Stewart, do you 1964 02:17:48.680 --> 02:17:51.319 think that Sid could have been the top star in 1965 02:17:51.559 --> 02:17:57.399 w c W where the companies could have been built 1966 02:17:57.520 --> 02:18:01.440 around Sid. Sid is the top guy? Sure? I means 1967 02:18:01.559 --> 02:18:03.600 they were gonna make Sid the world champion in ninety 1968 02:18:03.639 --> 02:18:06.479 three before he almost killed arn Anderson. That's why he 1969 02:18:06.559 --> 02:18:12.799 was fired. Would it have helped business, That's a different story, 1970 02:18:15.440 --> 02:18:17.079 but sure he was a big enough name you could 1971 02:18:17.120 --> 02:18:20.280 have done that. Duff's VIDs. I took a date to 1972 02:18:20.399 --> 02:18:25.600 the fish market, but she only Sashimi as a friend. 1973 02:18:27.000 --> 02:18:36.120 See that just doesn't work. Such she only Sashimi as 1974 02:18:36.200 --> 02:18:40.840 a friend. See. I think the idea was there, but 1975 02:18:41.000 --> 02:18:47.040 like in execution, it just it just doesn't work. Joseph Stewart. 1976 02:18:47.079 --> 02:18:48.840 Have Sid never broke his leg, what do you think 1977 02:18:48.879 --> 02:18:53.559 Sid's career would have looked like Sid? Sid Sid's career, 1978 02:18:53.639 --> 02:18:56.920 I mean he had already reached his peak physically, like 1979 02:18:57.000 --> 02:19:00.360 as an n ring performer, so he would have continued wrestling. 1980 02:19:00.440 --> 02:19:02.920 He might have had another run, maybe in WWE, but 1981 02:19:03.079 --> 02:19:06.600 not as like a top top guy. I don't think 1982 02:19:06.639 --> 02:19:09.959 it would have worked out. So I don't think his 1983 02:19:10.120 --> 02:19:12.760 career would have looked any differently. I think he just 1984 02:19:12.799 --> 02:19:16.479 would have had a little more longevity. But his career 1985 02:19:16.600 --> 02:19:18.559 was pretty I think his career as far as like 1986 02:19:18.680 --> 02:19:21.799 the zenith of his career was already done at that point. 1987 02:19:23.639 --> 02:19:27.760 Base Beier says, embrace the hate for that mask. Never 1988 02:19:32.280 --> 02:19:37.479 I'll embrace the hate. I'll embrace the hate, but I 1989 02:19:37.520 --> 02:19:45.719 will never accept it. Depsvids he's gonna try again. What 1990 02:19:45.920 --> 02:19:48.559 did the Mexicans say to the white guy at the 1991 02:19:48.639 --> 02:19:57.760 traffic light? Green go ringo? Greeno? Say that works better? 1992 02:20:00.000 --> 02:20:02.799 He's still not great, But I just did. I just 1993 02:20:02.799 --> 02:20:09.280 didn't get the other one. Kreflow is truth. The last 1994 02:20:09.360 --> 02:20:15.479 active wrestler to wrestle Liger, Oh Luger. I thought that's 1995 02:20:15.520 --> 02:20:20.000 the Liger to wrestle Luger. I have no idea. Did 1996 02:20:20.079 --> 02:20:28.440 he wrestle him in TNA, then he probably is, but 1997 02:20:28.559 --> 02:20:31.280 he definitely wasn't. The last active wrestler to wrestle Liger. 1998 02:20:31.280 --> 02:20:34.840 I can tell you that Joseph Steward, did you know 1999 02:20:34.959 --> 02:20:37.840 Sid had a match with a giant you know. Now, 2000 02:20:38.000 --> 02:20:41.399 if they had cast Sid in Batman forever, I think 2001 02:20:41.520 --> 02:20:47.280 Joseph's brain would have just combusted. You imagine. Uh did 2002 02:20:47.319 --> 02:20:49.479 you know Sid had a match with Giant Gonzales and 2003 02:20:49.600 --> 02:20:52.520 w CID Oh? I remember. I believe it was a 2004 02:20:52.559 --> 02:20:58.760 stretcher match. Oh, I remember? And were you a fan 2005 02:20:58.840 --> 02:21:03.159 of Sarah Michelle? Yeah? I liked her. I mean she 2006 02:21:05.120 --> 02:21:08.719 was Buffy right. I never watched Buffy the Vampire Slayer, 2007 02:21:09.920 --> 02:21:13.959 but I liked her. I think I saw a couple 2008 02:21:14.000 --> 02:21:18.840 of movies that she was in. Somehow we took what 2009 02:21:19.120 --> 02:21:21.879 was going to shortly be an hour long review and 2010 02:21:22.319 --> 02:21:24.840 parlayed that into a two hour, thirty eight minute stream, 2011 02:21:25.959 --> 02:21:29.000 the majority of which was spent not talking about SmackDown, 2012 02:21:29.079 --> 02:21:34.719 because fuck that show, Joseph Stewart, Did you know of 2013 02:21:34.959 --> 02:21:37.959 Sid was in the final main event of Star Kate 2014 02:21:38.000 --> 02:21:44.120 in two thousand against Scott Steiner for the WCW Championship. Yes, 2015 02:21:44.200 --> 02:21:48.239 I was, I was, indeed, and I think it was 2016 02:21:48.399 --> 02:21:51.879 the following month right where he broke his leg. Was 2017 02:21:51.920 --> 02:21:54.879 that Sin w CW Sin I think was the name 2018 02:21:54.920 --> 02:21:57.239 of the show. And M and M with the seven 2019 02:21:58.840 --> 02:22:00.920 You think Triple H will use the Big Blue Steel 2020 02:22:01.000 --> 02:22:03.600 cage for Saturday Night's main event within the remainder of 2021 02:22:03.840 --> 02:22:08.959 WWE's contract with NBC Universal. Now why would he. We 2022 02:22:09.120 --> 02:22:11.120 just had a cage match on Saturday Night's main event 2023 02:22:12.559 --> 02:22:16.719 in May Damian Priest and Drew mcintary. He didn't use 2024 02:22:16.719 --> 02:22:18.479 the Big Blue cage, then why would he use it? Now? 2025 02:22:20.399 --> 02:22:23.360 I will see you back here on Monday night for 2026 02:22:23.440 --> 02:22:26.520 the Raw post show. And don't forget episode nine twenty 2027 02:22:26.680 --> 02:22:29.399 five of the sound off coming up. It'll be dropping 2028 02:22:29.479 --> 02:22:32.600 sometime later in the afternoon on Sunday.
