WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.440 --> 00:00:03.960 Nights of Champions is in the books. This was what 2 00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:06.639 we were told in advance coming into the show, was 3 00:00:06.919 --> 00:00:11.039 very likely the final match between John Cena and CM Punk. 4 00:00:11.119 --> 00:00:13.720 John Cena is done at the end of this year, 5 00:00:14.199 --> 00:00:16.320 and we have not had John Cena and CM Punk 6 00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:19.519 in the ring one on one in twelve years. So 7 00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:23.719 this entire show was built around this main event tonight 8 00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:28.679 for the WWE Championship. And you know, when I knew 9 00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:30.440 that they were doing this match a Night of Champions, 10 00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:33.719 I was actually disappointed because this, to me is a 11 00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:37.000 Summer Slam match, Like this is so much bigger than 12 00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:41.479 just Night of Champions or Saturday Night's main Events or 13 00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:45.159 you know, a show like that. And the matches that 14 00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:48.039 they had in the past, really all of the matches 15 00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:50.119 that Punk and Sena have had in the past were 16 00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:53.719 at least good. Some of them are just classics. You know, 17 00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:56.560 their money in the bank match, they're raw match. They 18 00:00:56.560 --> 00:00:59.240 had a great Summer Slam match many years ago. But 19 00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:01.719 John Cena has not had too many great matches, let's 20 00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:04.000 just put it that way, since he has started this 21 00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:07.480 retirement tour. He is not the same in ring performer 22 00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:11.480 that he was even just five years ago just not 23 00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:13.840 there anymore. Which is not to say that he was 24 00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:16.879 flying around the ring doing all this crazy shit even before, 25 00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:19.599 but clearly it all depends on who he is in 26 00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:22.040 the ring with and who his opponent is going to be. 27 00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:25.000 He had a lot of history going into Backlash against 28 00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:29.120 Randy Orton right. So many matches over the years, those 29 00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:31.599 guys shared the ring so many times. I couldn't even 30 00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:33.640 begin to tell you how many times it was. And 31 00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:35.439 they went in there at Backlash and they actually had 32 00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:38.359 what ended up being a really good match with Punk. 33 00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:42.120 I had great optimism that there was still some of 34 00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:44.640 that old magic left right. We got a little taste 35 00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.439 of it at the Elimination Chamber. They had a little 36 00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:50.519 exchange in that match, but I was hopeful that we 37 00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:53.079 would be able to recapture some of that on this 38 00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:56.799 show tonight. I am happy to say that they went 39 00:01:56.840 --> 00:01:59.319 in there and they had what I thought was a 40 00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:02.840 good match. The chemistry between them is still there. Do 41 00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:04.879 I think the match they had at Night of Champions 42 00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:06.599 is going to go down as one of the best 43 00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:09.199 matches that the two of them have ever had top 44 00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:13.360 three anything like that. No, No, not even close. But 45 00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:16.479 there was still something there between them, and I still 46 00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:19.000 feel the same way that I felt before, which is 47 00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:20.800 that this is a match that should have been saved 48 00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:23.960 for a bigger show like SummerSlam. But Tripleh obviously has 49 00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:27.680 a vision for Cody Rhodes going into SummerSlam. He has 50 00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:31.840 his story which is still unfinished unfinished business between him 51 00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:36.879 and John Cena. What we got in the main event tonight, Honestly, 52 00:02:37.120 --> 00:02:40.240 it felt to me like a diet version of what 53 00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:43.759 we had at WrestleMania last year between Roman Reigns and 54 00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:44.479 Cody Rhoads. 55 00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:48.400 That match was overbooked to all hell. 56 00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:51.680 I said, that's the Avengers endgame of WWE, is what 57 00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:54.120 I called it at the time, because you had so 58 00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:58.759 many people getting involved and so many different stories intertwined, 59 00:02:58.759 --> 00:03:00.599 and they all came to a head at the same 60 00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:03.280 time right in that match. But it all made sense. 61 00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:06.439 It all made for a very exciting match. We kind 62 00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:09.000 of got a version of that here. It was not 63 00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:11.439 nearly as exciting as that was, but that was my 64 00:03:11.479 --> 00:03:13.840 first thought. This was like a diet version of what 65 00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:16.039 they did at WrestleMania last year with all of the 66 00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:19.319 interference that we had here in this match. Because Seth 67 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:24.800 Rollins came out with his new posse, and he teased 68 00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:29.080 possibly cashing in his money in the bank briefcase. He 69 00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:31.159 came out there with bron Breaker, and he came out 70 00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:34.080 there with Bronson Reid, and he made you think that 71 00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:35.960 he was going to cash in that briefcase. But then 72 00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:39.039 all of these other people started showing up. Penta showed 73 00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:40.599 up in the main event. I mean, look, I'm glad 74 00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:43.080 that Penta got a cameo in the main event. He 75 00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:45.680 hasn't gotten a whole hell of a lot lately, so 76 00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:47.840 I mean, good to see him. But like I tell you, 77 00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:50.319 the first time I heard that music hit and I 78 00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:53.000 saw Penta come and I said, what the fuck Penta 79 00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:55.360 coming out during the main event. But he had his 80 00:03:55.439 --> 00:03:59.319 issues in recent history with again, they still have no name, 81 00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:02.639 call them the Hayman Alliance, okay until they come up 82 00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:05.879 with something better. So he's had his issues with them lately. 83 00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:09.000 Sammy's Ain comes back out, you know, during the main 84 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:10.800 event to try to fight them off as well. Right, 85 00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:12.520 so all of this stuff is going on, You got 86 00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:14.479 the ref bump, you got all of this stuff that 87 00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:18.480 you would normally see at an overbooked main event, and 88 00:04:18.680 --> 00:04:23.360 it made sense like, you can overbook something for the 89 00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:25.800 sake of doing it. You could overbook it in a 90 00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:27.800 way that doesn't make sense, or you can overbook it 91 00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:29.480 in a way where, okay, at least the people who 92 00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:32.879 are coming out and getting involved right, like, it makes sense. 93 00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:36.160 But I'm a little sad because for what will likely 94 00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:38.720 end up being the final John Cena CM Punk match, 95 00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:40.879 it's just the sort of thing that I don't think 96 00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:44.839 they needed. But it was clear that CM Punk was 97 00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:48.399 not winning this championship, and so this was WWE's way 98 00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:49.959 of protecting him. 99 00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:51.240 How are we going to. 100 00:04:51.160 --> 00:04:53.680 Protect punkin defeat instead of just having him be kicked 101 00:04:53.720 --> 00:04:57.399 in the dick like everybody else and pinned, And this 102 00:04:57.439 --> 00:04:59.680 is what they came up with. We had a fake 103 00:04:59.720 --> 00:05:01.920 out on the cash in. There was no money in 104 00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:04.600 the bank cash in. In the end, he tried, Rollins tried, 105 00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.240 but in the end John sna sneaks out a win 106 00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:11.319 pin CM Punk and retains the WWE Championship. And there 107 00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:14.600 was no feeling that I had coming out of this 108 00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:16.600 show that would indicate to me that they're going to 109 00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:19.160 run this back again. We do have a show coming 110 00:05:19.240 --> 00:05:22.480 up in a few weeks on NBC it's called Saturday 111 00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:24.800 Night's main event. If they wanted to do a scene 112 00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:26.839 a Punk rematch, that would be the place to do it. 113 00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:29.639 I don't think they're going to. I don't really see 114 00:05:29.639 --> 00:05:31.399 the point in doing it. If they did this to 115 00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:33.319 protect Punk, what are you going to run it back 116 00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:35.839 for and then just beat him? I think this was it. 117 00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:38.399 I think this was the final chapter in their feud. 118 00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:42.839 What they gave us here was was good. It was good. 119 00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:45.360 I mean there were a lot of finisher spam. I 120 00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:48.879 mean you have to expect that, right, Constant attitude adjustments, 121 00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:53.720 attitude adjustment, attempt GTS, attempt. Dude, we were seeing this 122 00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:56.240 in John Cena matches twelve years ago. I mean, that's 123 00:05:56.279 --> 00:05:58.240 not really a shock. So we got a lot of 124 00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:00.879 that in that match as well. But when it was over, 125 00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:05.959 Cmpunk got fucked over once more by Seth Rollins. And 126 00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:09.920 I'm watching this and I'm thinking, well deserved. This is 127 00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:12.759 what you get this guy coming out here trying to 128 00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:15.000 cash in during your match. This is what you get 129 00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:18.600 for not costing him the money in the bank match 130 00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:22.000 earlier this month, we saw no Punk, we saw no 131 00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:25.439 Roman Reigns on that show. Seth just won the briefcase. 132 00:06:25.879 --> 00:06:27.959 Despite all the bullshit that he has put all of 133 00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:31.800 these different people through, you allowed this man to win 134 00:06:31.879 --> 00:06:35.480 the briefcase, and so now you paid the price for it. 135 00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:38.040 And it feels like we're headed towards another CM Punk 136 00:06:38.120 --> 00:06:42.160 seth Rollins match, and onward we go. This few you know, 137 00:06:42.240 --> 00:06:46.759 must continue. Well, I mean, Punk's destination for Summer Slim 138 00:06:46.879 --> 00:06:50.319 is a little less murky, you know now than it 139 00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:53.000 was coming into this show, But we still can't say 140 00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:55.160 for sure that that's going to be the Summer Slim. 141 00:06:55.319 --> 00:06:57.279 I presume that that will be the Summer Slim match. 142 00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:00.000 There is no debate though about what John Cenas Summers 143 00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:02.639 Match is going to be because it ties in directly 144 00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:04.319 to the King of the Ring. That was the other 145 00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:06.319 thing on this show. We had the finals of the 146 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:09.480 King and Queen of the Ring tournaments. The winners punched 147 00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:12.959 their ticket to a guarantee championship match at Summerslim against 148 00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:15.879 the champion of their respective brand. We already knew on 149 00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:17.600 the SmackDown side that it was going to be a 150 00:07:17.600 --> 00:07:21.160 SmackDown roster person on the men's side going to Summer 151 00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:24.040 SLEMDA Wrestle for the WWE title. Because it came down 152 00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:27.199 to Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton, two members of the 153 00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:30.439 SmackDown roster. On the women's side, we had Jade car 154 00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:35.680 Gill representing SmackDown, we had Osca representing Raw and things basically, 155 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:38.759 I mean things really up and down. The entire card 156 00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:41.639 went exactly the way that I predicted they would when 157 00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:43.319 we ran through the predictions the other day. So it 158 00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:46.079 was a very predictable show, but it basically went the 159 00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:49.920 way that I think most people probably expected. King Cody 160 00:07:50.759 --> 00:07:54.759 and Queen Jade they have their crowns. They will now 161 00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.680 be going on to Summer SLEMDA Wrestle for the championship. 162 00:07:58.040 --> 00:08:00.319 Cody Roads and Randy Orton went out there and had 163 00:08:00.360 --> 00:08:03.319 the best match on the entire show. Jade Cargill and 164 00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:08.519 Oscar went out there and had probably the worst. Certainly, 165 00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:10.879 it was nothing that I am going to have any 166 00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:14.600 interest in going back to rewatch again. Osca did what 167 00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:18.800 she could, but that was easily the weakest part of 168 00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:24.439 the entire show. Both United States Championships changed hands in 169 00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:27.639 Riha this weekend, and that goes back to SmackDown. Last night. 170 00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:30.360 Julia beat Zelina Vegas. She is the new women's United 171 00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:34.559 States Champion. But on this show, Solo Sokoa wins his 172 00:08:34.720 --> 00:08:39.120 first singles championship on the main roster. He unseats Jacob 173 00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:42.519 Fotu to win the US title. But that's not the 174 00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:45.679 only story coming out of that match, because we had 175 00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:51.519 a massive appearance during that US title match, and a 176 00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:54.759 lot of people were probably thinking it coming into this show. 177 00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:57.200 We've been waiting quite a while for this person to 178 00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:02.720 finally show up on television. Yes, yes, indeed, the Great 179 00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:05.759 Tonga Loa is back on television. 180 00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:06.759 I know you missed him. 181 00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:12.840 Tonga Loa made his return during the United States Championship match, 182 00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:18.639 Oh my God, and he provides an assist to Jacob 183 00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:22.320 fought or to Solo Soka against Jacob fat Too. And 184 00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:24.399 then this other guy, Hicculeo I think his name is 185 00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:28.879 He also made his debut during that match, although was 186 00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:32.960 never named. So Hickuleo is clearly dead and so whatever 187 00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:34.480 the new name is going to be, we'll find out 188 00:09:34.559 --> 00:09:36.759 soon enough. Remember a long time ago, we heard about 189 00:09:36.759 --> 00:09:39.559 them trademarking Talla Tonga, So I don't know if that's 190 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:42.000 still going to be his name or not. But the 191 00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:44.679 fact that his name was never actually mentioned on the show. 192 00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:47.399 Is probably indicative of the fact that he. 193 00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:48.600 Is not going to be Hicculeo. 194 00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:51.080 But yes, he finally did make his debut here on 195 00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:53.320 this show and the Bloodline. All of a sudden, the 196 00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:57.919 Bloodline was down to two, the remnants of the bloodline. 197 00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:01.080 We were down to two Solo Soka and j. C. Mitteo, 198 00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:03.919 And it felt like, Okay, maybe this thing is petering 199 00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:08.159 out finally, right, Tomatonga has been hurt, Tongalo has been hurt, 200 00:10:08.440 --> 00:10:12.679 Hikuleo has been missing for over a year. Maybe maybe 201 00:10:12.679 --> 00:10:15.519 they're gonna put the bloodline stuff aside for now. All 202 00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:17.879 of a sudden, we went from two to one. Are 203 00:10:17.879 --> 00:10:21.039 the back up to like four? Right, probably five when 204 00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:23.279 Toma Tonga comes to We got Solo Sokoa, we got 205 00:10:23.399 --> 00:10:27.200 Jace Matteo, we got Hikuleo, we got tongaloa. All of 206 00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:32.000 a sudden, the Bloodline has respawned and so it ain't 207 00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:35.759 going nowhere. But Jacob Fontunaw is gonna have to chase 208 00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:38.879 to get that US title back. I thought that it 209 00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:43.519 was a decent show. This was a very middle of 210 00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:47.039 the road show. Uh, definitely not their best effort. As 211 00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:50.159 Saudi shows go. Uh, there have been some really good 212 00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:52.840 Saudi shows actually in recent years. Uh. They put a 213 00:10:52.879 --> 00:10:54.879 lot more focus on these shows than they did at 214 00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:57.799 the very beginning of their relationship. Uh. This was not 215 00:10:57.919 --> 00:11:02.039 one of the better ones, but it was decent. There 216 00:11:02.039 --> 00:11:04.200 were some things I liked, there were some things I 217 00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:07.759 didn't like. A lot of it was very uninspiring, didn't 218 00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:10.279 get me terribly excited. We're going to talk about everything 219 00:11:10.320 --> 00:11:12.600 that happened here on this show, including all the madness 220 00:11:12.639 --> 00:11:16.639 of the main event, because this is your WWE Night 221 00:11:16.639 --> 00:11:19.840 of Champions twenty twenty five review. I am the Solid Monster. 222 00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:23.720 Thank you for joining me here on a Saturday afternoon 223 00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:26.360 or I guess, I mean, depending on where you're watching this. 224 00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:28.679 It could be early in the morning, it could be 225 00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:31.759 late at night. But I'm glad you're with me. Like 226 00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:35.000 and subscribe. Superchats are open. We have a brand new one. 227 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:38.039 You could find all the special ones, all the amounts 228 00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:41.399 listed in the description down below. I'll be reading all 229 00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:44.120 of your super chats a little bit later, and let's 230 00:11:44.159 --> 00:11:45.840 get those likes up and maybe we could do some 231 00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.200 be the booker a little bit later on fun thing 232 00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:51.159 we usually do at the end of these streams, so 233 00:11:51.240 --> 00:11:53.799 hopefully that will be coming up a little bit later 234 00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:58.399 on here in the stream. But hey, open the show. 235 00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:02.399 We'll start there. That's usually what you do, right, you 236 00:12:02.440 --> 00:12:04.200 start with the opening of the show. I'm not gonna 237 00:12:04.200 --> 00:12:05.600 start with the closing of the show. That would be 238 00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:08.279 pretty stupid. I'm not even drinking yet, why would. 239 00:12:08.039 --> 00:12:08.399 I do that. 240 00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:11.279 The opening of the show was the King of the 241 00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:14.679 Ring final. We had Cody Rhodes one on one with 242 00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:20.000 Randy Orton. Orton entered first and they sang his song 243 00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:23.080 so much so that they even looped it as they 244 00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:26.480 continued singing his song. They did the same for Cody 245 00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:28.360 Rhods on his way to the ring. They sang him 246 00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:31.279 to the ring. All of these international crowds men, no 247 00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:33.720 matter where they go, it doesn't matter what country, doesn't 248 00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:37.440 matter what continent they go to. They all think that 249 00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:39.960 they're on you know, America's got talent or something. 250 00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:40.240 I don't know. 251 00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:43.799 Everybody sings. I don't go I wouldn't go to these 252 00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:47.200 shows to sing. Nobody wants to hear me sing. I 253 00:12:47.240 --> 00:12:49.480 don't want to hear them sing either, But they seem 254 00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:52.600 to have fun doing it. So Orton comes into this 255 00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:55.720 match he owns. We were told a seven and three 256 00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:59.039 singles record against Cody. This is the first time that 257 00:12:59.080 --> 00:13:02.960 these two have locked up up in a match since 258 00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:06.600 two thousand and thirteen, I believe, twelve years since we've 259 00:13:06.639 --> 00:13:09.240 gotten a Cody Roads Randy Orton match, our first since 260 00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:12.320 Cody came back to the company three years ago. And 261 00:13:12.360 --> 00:13:14.480 they didn't do much for the first few minutes. They 262 00:13:14.480 --> 00:13:16.799 didn't really have to. I mean, the crowd was very 263 00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:20.679 loud at the beginning of this. Rhodes went to the top, 264 00:13:21.320 --> 00:13:23.759 Roads to the top. Rhoads went to the top for 265 00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:27.759 probably five minutes into this. Orton brought him down though 266 00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:30.080 with a superplex, and that was really the story of 267 00:13:30.120 --> 00:13:33.000 the match because after Orton brought him down with a superplex, 268 00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:36.759 immediately Randy begins selling his lower back. And he did 269 00:13:36.840 --> 00:13:38.600 the same thing a year ago. Remember the King of 270 00:13:38.600 --> 00:13:41.679 the Ring final last year where he fell to Gunther 271 00:13:42.600 --> 00:13:45.480 and he was selling the back there as well. So 272 00:13:45.960 --> 00:13:51.360 telling that story where he may haveked tworked, he did 273 00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:55.000 not towerk. He may tweeted, he may have tweaked. Randy 274 00:13:55.080 --> 00:13:57.679 Orton did not twerk during this match, but he may 275 00:13:57.720 --> 00:14:01.320 have tweaked the lower back that automatically became the story 276 00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:04.279 right there. Cody took advantage. He hit a disaster kick 277 00:14:04.320 --> 00:14:07.320 for two. Orton responded with a backbreaker, which is not 278 00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:08.960 a very smart thing to be doing if you have 279 00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:11.240 a bad back. So, of course, as soon as he 280 00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:14.360 hits the back breaker, he winces and he grabs the back, 281 00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:18.279 so Cody wrenched Orton's back around the ring post. He 282 00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:21.440 followed with a missile dropkick. Orton fought back and hit 283 00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:25.279 a power slam. The injured back, though, prevented him from 284 00:14:25.559 --> 00:14:29.960 making the cover fast enough. Cody kicked out Rhodes was 285 00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:33.519 delivering fore arms to the lower back and actually got 286 00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:37.440 some booze for doing that because Randy was super over here. 287 00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:41.759 He hits a Cody cutter, only gets two. Then he 288 00:14:41.840 --> 00:14:49.120 follows with a super Cody cutter and still only gets two. Yeah, 289 00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:53.279 you know, Lucy, Lucy and the Chapman. If Randy did twork, 290 00:14:53.360 --> 00:14:55.759 he probably would throw his back out. I would think 291 00:14:55.759 --> 00:14:58.440 that twerking would be probably the worst thing you could 292 00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:04.360 do if you have a bad don't do that. Orton 293 00:15:04.440 --> 00:15:07.799 came back with the draping DDT. Cody counted an RKO 294 00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:12.399 attempt into a crossroads for a near fall. Rhodes stalled 295 00:15:12.440 --> 00:15:15.399 for a little too long, though, and Orton popped up 296 00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:18.200 with an RKO out of nowhere for a near fall. 297 00:15:19.039 --> 00:15:20.679 Orton went to the corner he set up for the 298 00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:25.279 punt kick, and he begins to second guess himself, as 299 00:15:25.320 --> 00:15:27.360 she told a similar story on the show with John 300 00:15:27.399 --> 00:15:29.399 Cena in the main event and Randy Orton here in 301 00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:32.120 the opener, where there was a moment in each of 302 00:15:32.120 --> 00:15:35.919 these matches where they had almost a crisis of conscience. 303 00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:40.039 They were going to deliver a move and they stopped 304 00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:43.840 themselves and they thought better of it. In this case, 305 00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:48.759 probably caused Randy Orton the match because he's second guessing himself. 306 00:15:49.159 --> 00:15:52.879 Orton ultimately talks himself into it, goes for the punt, 307 00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:55.759 but he waited too long. Cody dodges it. He applies 308 00:15:55.759 --> 00:15:58.879 a figure four leg lock until Orton got a rope break, 309 00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:01.360 which is kind of an odd thing to do. I mean, 310 00:16:01.399 --> 00:16:04.360 when you have a guy here who was selling a 311 00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:07.120 bad back, I mean, why wouldn't you go for something 312 00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:10.360 like a bear hug. I mean it doesn't really make 313 00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:11.919 a whole lot of sense. I mean, if this guy 314 00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:15.159 has a bad back, I know what I'll do, I'll 315 00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:19.159 apply a figure four leg lock. It's not very smart. 316 00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:22.600 There By, Cody Rhodes went for another Cody cutter. Orton 317 00:16:22.639 --> 00:16:25.240 caught him out of midair as he sprung off the 318 00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:27.759 middle rope with an RKO. That was a great spot 319 00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:30.279 and it had the fans convinced that that might be 320 00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:34.159 the finish. Of course it wasn't, and Cody kicked out. 321 00:16:35.519 --> 00:16:38.320 So then Orton went outside and he grabs a steel 322 00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:40.960 chair and he brings it into the ring again another 323 00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:42.960 similarity with what we saw in the main event where 324 00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:46.120 John Cena left the ring to go grab the title 325 00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:49.799 belt to bring into the ring. Here, though, Orton had 326 00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:52.080 an ulterior motive, so he brings the chair into the ring, 327 00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:54.240 which would be a pretty fucking dumb thing to do, 328 00:16:54.919 --> 00:16:57.960 because you get disqualified, you don't win King of the Ring. 329 00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:02.480 Charles Robinson takes the chair away from him. When he does, 330 00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:05.839 Orton goes to the corner and he pulls off the 331 00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:08.279 top turnbuckle pad, so it was all part of the plan. 332 00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:11.599 Rhodes blocked Orton's attempt to use the exposed buckle and 333 00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:15.160 shoved Randy into it instead, ribs first, really like right 334 00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:18.680 under the armpit. And he goes into it the upper 335 00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:23.279 ribcage and Orton lets out a scream. Cody follows that 336 00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:27.279 with a crossroads and he covers Randy Orton for the win. 337 00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:32.359 Twenty minutes into this match, the fans were definitely louder 338 00:17:32.359 --> 00:17:34.880 for Randy than they were for coming. They cheered Cody, 339 00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:37.759 but they were louder for Randy than they were for Cody. 340 00:17:38.359 --> 00:17:41.680 They still cheered when Cody won. Orton left the ring. 341 00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.880 Cody is presented with the crown by both general managers. 342 00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:49.279 Byron Saxton makes his way over to interview him, and 343 00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:52.240 Cody first said he wanted to thank Randy Orton, who 344 00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:55.400 he said mentored him and spoke up for him. He 345 00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:58.920 said this would not be Orton's final stop in Saudi Arabia. 346 00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:00.720 He asked all the fans to get give him a 347 00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:03.640 round of applause. And you could see in because Cody 348 00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:05.880 had his back turn to the aisleway and you could 349 00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:09.519 see Orton in the aisle. So Orton turns around to 350 00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:13.480 you know, see this, but he did not look very happy. 351 00:18:13.519 --> 00:18:17.200 He did not have a very happy expression here on 352 00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:19.920 his face. Cody again had his back turn, so I 353 00:18:19.960 --> 00:18:21.720 thought that Orton was going to slip into there. He's 354 00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:24.519 a slither into the ring and drop him right then 355 00:18:24.559 --> 00:18:27.200 and there. But he didn't do that. Cody said that 356 00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:31.319 he would face either Cmpunk or John Cena at SummerSlam. 357 00:18:31.400 --> 00:18:33.319 He knew how the audience felt when he went up 358 00:18:33.319 --> 00:18:35.279 against these beloved characters. 359 00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:39.720 That's what he said, characters. I don't know what's up 360 00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:40.119 with this guy. 361 00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:44.240 Man, he's on the show here talking about characters. He's 362 00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:47.200 doing interviews, talking about how you know, my time is 363 00:18:47.240 --> 00:18:49.480 a baby face maybe coming to an NC. I'm not 364 00:18:49.519 --> 00:18:53.039 liking this, like I'm not liking this. I mean, I 365 00:18:53.119 --> 00:18:55.759 know the curtain has been pulled back like ninety five percent. 366 00:18:56.440 --> 00:18:59.039 Just leave me that little five percent. I don't think 367 00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:01.559 we need to. But then again, I mean, that Netflix 368 00:19:01.559 --> 00:19:02.799 show is premiering in a month. 369 00:19:02.839 --> 00:19:03.200 What is it? 370 00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:06.519 WWE what the hell is it called? I forgot the 371 00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:10.039 name of it, that new reality show. I mean, forget 372 00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:12.440 at that point though, the remaining five percent is basically 373 00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:15.400 just gone at that point. But he goes, you know, 374 00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:17.200 I know how all you guys feel about me when 375 00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:20.400 I go up against these beloved characters like Randy Orton 376 00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:21.240 and Jay Uso. 377 00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:22.839 But no matter who the. 378 00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:26.319 Champion was They were only holding it for him because 379 00:19:26.400 --> 00:19:30.960 he would get the ball back, he said at SummerSlam, 380 00:19:31.680 --> 00:19:34.839 and they shot off Piro behind him as he held 381 00:19:34.920 --> 00:19:37.640 up the crown. Never put the crown on his head. 382 00:19:38.079 --> 00:19:41.799 Gunther didn't last year. He held it, but he didn't 383 00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:44.400 actually wear the crown because it just looks goofy. At 384 00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:47.400 this point, you know, this is not the This is 385 00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:49.799 not the era of the macho King, like that era 386 00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:54.559 is long gone. That was the cartoon era of WWE 387 00:19:54.559 --> 00:19:57.400 that I grew up on. And so you had the 388 00:19:57.400 --> 00:20:00.799 Macho King and you had you know, King Harley Race 389 00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:02.839 and Brett Hart wins Kang of the Ring and puts 390 00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:05.680 the crown on his head, and frankly, even that looked 391 00:20:05.680 --> 00:20:09.319 a little goofy. It's just a different time now. It 392 00:20:09.359 --> 00:20:12.960 would be really stupid. Honestly, if Gunther stood there and 393 00:20:13.000 --> 00:20:15.279 put the crown on his head, just the kind of 394 00:20:15.319 --> 00:20:17.680 character that he is, it would have been dumb. 395 00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:19.519 And it would have been dumb for Cody to do it. 396 00:20:19.559 --> 00:20:23.440 Now, if you're a certain type of heel, it might 397 00:20:23.480 --> 00:20:27.799 make sense, but Cody is not, so he should not 398 00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:30.880 be wearing a crown on his head. I thought this 399 00:20:31.079 --> 00:20:35.000 was the perfect first match between these two. I have 400 00:20:35.039 --> 00:20:36.480 been waiting for these two to get in the ring 401 00:20:36.519 --> 00:20:38.680 together ever since Cody came back to the company. There 402 00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:43.160 is so much history, like rich history between these two, 403 00:20:43.240 --> 00:20:45.359 going back to when Cody was first coming up in 404 00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:47.920 the ranks and he was hand picked by Randy Orton 405 00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:50.440 to be part of Legacy, and they even shared the 406 00:20:50.519 --> 00:20:52.799 ring together at Russell Vandia one year in that triple 407 00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:55.559 threat match. I don't know whatever happens to that Debase guy. 408 00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:58.160 He may be behind bar soon, but there's a lot 409 00:20:58.160 --> 00:21:01.680 of history there that has not even been touched. And 410 00:21:01.720 --> 00:21:04.079 there were a lot of teases last year in little 411 00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:07.640 backstage segments where yeah, they were friendly. They might be 412 00:21:07.680 --> 00:21:09.920 sitting in the locker room in Orton would glance over 413 00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:13.279 at the Championship and you just knew, like, maybe they're 414 00:21:13.319 --> 00:21:15.720 not going to lock up soon, but like down the road, 415 00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:18.279 they're already, you know, giving you a little hints of 416 00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:21.720 what's coming. And so now they have their first match 417 00:21:22.359 --> 00:21:25.680 in a match that like a week ago, we didn't 418 00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:28.599 even have on the card because Cody didn't even qualify 419 00:21:28.680 --> 00:21:31.920 for the finals until Monday. So this all came together 420 00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:34.119 very late in the game, and it's like, well, man, 421 00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:37.119 you're gonna do the first Cody and Randy match and 422 00:21:37.680 --> 00:21:40.680 hardly have any time to promote it. I looked at 423 00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:45.079 it as again, this is just match one, like their feud, 424 00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:48.160 and they will feud. Their feud has not even really 425 00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:51.359 started yet. But what we had here on this show 426 00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:55.319 was the beginnings of a longer feud between them that 427 00:21:55.359 --> 00:21:58.240 I think will will likely kick off coming out of 428 00:21:58.480 --> 00:22:01.759 Summer Slime, whether Cody wins it not coming out of 429 00:22:01.799 --> 00:22:05.200 Summer Slim. As far as the match itself, we had 430 00:22:05.240 --> 00:22:10.240 the usual overkill. You know, we had the overkill of 431 00:22:10.279 --> 00:22:16.319 all of the finisher attempts and kickouts, and I mean, 432 00:22:16.359 --> 00:22:17.920 we see this all the time in REST. This is 433 00:22:17.960 --> 00:22:20.119 not just the WWE issue either, but we see it 434 00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:22.720 a lot in WWE. I'm not a big fan of that, 435 00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:25.160 we get this all the time. The finish itself was 436 00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:27.079 a little flat too. I'm not even saying, oh, the 437 00:22:27.079 --> 00:22:31.880 finish was so great. That springboard into an RKO off 438 00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:35.720 the ropes, I mean, for a split second had me sold, 439 00:22:35.720 --> 00:22:38.079 even though I didn't honestly believe Randy was going to 440 00:22:38.119 --> 00:22:40.680 win this match. Had that been the finish of the match, 441 00:22:40.680 --> 00:22:42.640 you would have had people all over social media or 442 00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:44.359 raving about the finish and the oh my god, what 443 00:22:44.400 --> 00:22:47.200 a great finish that was. So the finish was definitely 444 00:22:47.839 --> 00:22:50.359 a little flat. But again, the match did what it 445 00:22:50.400 --> 00:22:52.880 was supposed to do, and what the match was supposed 446 00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:55.440 to do was plant the seeds for what is coming 447 00:22:55.519 --> 00:22:58.279 in the future. And also keep in mind, Cody didn't 448 00:22:58.279 --> 00:23:00.359 really do anything wrong here. Randy is the one who 449 00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:04.799 introduced or tried to introduce the chair into the ring, right, 450 00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:08.759 Randy is the one who went and removed the turnbuckle 451 00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:11.680 pad and tried to use that short cut and it 452 00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:14.160 blew up at his face. All Cody did was just 453 00:23:14.160 --> 00:23:15.799 take advantage of it. So I think part of the 454 00:23:15.799 --> 00:23:18.920 story here also is Cody finally did what he was 455 00:23:19.039 --> 00:23:22.319 unwilling to do at WrestleMania because he was a dumb fuck. 456 00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:24.680 At WrestleMania, he had. 457 00:23:24.519 --> 00:23:28.720 The chance to take a short cut to beat John Cena. 458 00:23:29.079 --> 00:23:31.680 He didn't do it, and it cost him the championship. 459 00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:34.880 And so now he's heading into a rematch with John Cena, 460 00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:37.240 and I think they're trying to illustrate that this time 461 00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:40.160 it's going to be a different Cody than the one 462 00:23:40.200 --> 00:23:42.519 we saw at WrestleMania. This time he will not be 463 00:23:42.680 --> 00:23:45.839 unwilling to take advantage of a situation if it presents itself. 464 00:23:46.440 --> 00:23:48.880 So that's kind of how I read into what they 465 00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:53.160 did here. They didn't give too much away. They didn't 466 00:23:53.200 --> 00:23:57.799 have to. We're gonna see this again. As far as 467 00:23:58.279 --> 00:24:03.079 Randy Orton is concerned for or SummerSlam, I don't know 468 00:24:03.119 --> 00:24:05.759 what Randy Orton would be doing at SummerSlam. You if 469 00:24:05.799 --> 00:24:08.279 they're going to kick things off, you know something with 470 00:24:08.359 --> 00:24:11.200 him and Cody. I see that coming out of Summer Slam. 471 00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:13.279 Maybe he gets involved. 472 00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:13.720 In Cody's match. 473 00:24:13.759 --> 00:24:16.599 If Randy is gonna go heal, maybe he goes heal 474 00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:19.920 at Summer Slim and cost Cody the match against Sena. Now, 475 00:24:19.920 --> 00:24:21.480 I know there's gonna be a lot of people going, well, 476 00:24:21.480 --> 00:24:24.720 wait a minute, maybe you're way off here, and maybe 477 00:24:24.799 --> 00:24:28.559 John Cena against Cody is going to end with Cody 478 00:24:28.599 --> 00:24:31.559 going heel. I know some people are praying for that. 479 00:24:31.680 --> 00:24:34.599 I know some people are hoping for that. We are 480 00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:37.400 going to get a heal Cody Rhodes. Cody himself is 481 00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:40.960 out there now publicly just flat out saying my time 482 00:24:41.000 --> 00:24:42.759 as a babyface is going to be coming to an 483 00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:44.880 end sooner than later. I don't know why he's out 484 00:24:44.880 --> 00:24:48.079 there saying this, especially if it's true. I don't know 485 00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:50.279 why you would even want to give people the hint. 486 00:24:50.480 --> 00:24:54.279 Just let it be a surprise. I don't think it's 487 00:24:54.279 --> 00:24:58.359 happening at Summer Slim. There's been nothing done, nothing to 488 00:24:58.480 --> 00:25:01.000 indicate that it is going to happen Summer Slim. I 489 00:25:01.000 --> 00:25:02.759 think it's a lot of people who are, you know, 490 00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:06.880 maybe sick of Cody as you know, the dominant babyface 491 00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:08.640 who kicks out of all these big moves, and they're 492 00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:10.119 sick of it, and they want to see him go heal. 493 00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:12.160 And that's fine, I mean, that's fair. 494 00:25:12.920 --> 00:25:14.880 I think it's just people reading a little too much 495 00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:17.160 into it because he is still the top babyface in 496 00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:21.400 this company. I just don't see them turning him here yet. 497 00:25:22.319 --> 00:25:24.000 So I don't think it's going to be him. If 498 00:25:24.039 --> 00:25:26.160 anyone's going heel, I think it's going. 499 00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:28.279 To be Randy Orton. That's what I think. 500 00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:34.359 Welcome to everybody who is with me here on a 501 00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:38.559 Saturday afternoon, Glad to have you, nearly fifteen hundred strong. 502 00:25:38.599 --> 00:25:41.559 As we are going through this card here, we are 503 00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:45.559 talking night of Champions talk King of the Ring. 504 00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:46.440 We got Queen of the Ring. 505 00:25:46.480 --> 00:25:48.799 We got to talk about later, not nearly as good 506 00:25:48.839 --> 00:25:50.480 as what we got with the King of the Ring tonight. 507 00:25:52.039 --> 00:25:53.519 We'll get to that, but first we got to get 508 00:25:53.519 --> 00:25:56.559 to this street fight. What they said was the first 509 00:25:56.599 --> 00:26:01.759 ever street fight in Saudi Arabia. Well, first ever wrestling 510 00:26:01.799 --> 00:26:02.400 street fight. 511 00:26:02.680 --> 00:26:03.359 I'm sure there have. 512 00:26:03.319 --> 00:26:06.119 Been other street fights in Saudi but not on a 513 00:26:06.200 --> 00:26:08.359 WWE show. We have, and this was the first Ria 514 00:26:08.440 --> 00:26:11.960 Ripley one on one with Raquel Rodriguez. 515 00:26:13.160 --> 00:26:14.480 Ria and Raquel in a street fight. 516 00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:17.880 They were both decked out in full body suits because 517 00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:22.839 Saudi Ria was wearing black latex, Riquel was in I 518 00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:24.920 don't know if it was black latex or black leather. 519 00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:28.759 What they were wearing was very similar to the point 520 00:26:28.759 --> 00:26:31.160 where it looked like they should be tag team partners. 521 00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:35.799 Ripley got tied up in the ropes early on in 522 00:26:35.799 --> 00:26:39.880 this match, so Rodriguez grabbed a kendo stick and she 523 00:26:40.039 --> 00:26:42.920 did not hold back. I feel like if you're in 524 00:26:42.960 --> 00:26:45.920 the ring with a good friend, you tend to be 525 00:26:46.000 --> 00:26:49.400 a little more, a little more violent. Like if I 526 00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:52.400 was in a match with my best friend, I would 527 00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:54.960 go to him and say, look, I'm probably gonna beat 528 00:26:55.000 --> 00:26:57.400 the fuck out of you, so if you want to 529 00:26:57.400 --> 00:26:59.480 give it back to me, that's fine, But like, let's 530 00:26:59.519 --> 00:27:00.720 just go out there and. 531 00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:02.160 Just stiff the shit out of each other. 532 00:27:02.240 --> 00:27:03.839 And that's what it felt like she was doing with 533 00:27:03.880 --> 00:27:06.960 that kendo stick, because she was wailing away on Ria's 534 00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:08.839 ribcage with this kendo stick. 535 00:27:09.920 --> 00:27:11.319 So then she grabbed the chair. 536 00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:15.799 And Ripley managed to kick the chair back into Raquel's face. 537 00:27:17.519 --> 00:27:20.279 Ripley cleared off the announced table. A little while later, 538 00:27:20.559 --> 00:27:25.720 she set up for a vertical suplex. Rodriguez escaped. Ria 539 00:27:25.799 --> 00:27:29.480 tried a cannonball off the table instead, and Raquel caught 540 00:27:29.519 --> 00:27:32.680 her and then muscled her up into a power bomb position, 541 00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:36.240 and she power bombed her over the barricade and into 542 00:27:36.279 --> 00:27:38.519 the timekeeper's area. I think there might have been a tap. 543 00:27:38.559 --> 00:27:40.319 There was a table, I think behind the barricade. She 544 00:27:40.359 --> 00:27:44.279 went through the table, so Raquel set the steel ring 545 00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:48.559 steps up on its side on the apron. Ripley, though, 546 00:27:48.640 --> 00:27:51.839 rammed her into them instead, then took off her belt, 547 00:27:52.039 --> 00:27:57.680 and Rhea began to repeatedly whip Raquel with her belt. 548 00:27:58.079 --> 00:28:00.400 Ripley followed in the ring with a razor's edge that 549 00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:03.039 folded her up and then a running kick only for 550 00:28:03.079 --> 00:28:07.119 a two count. Ripley applied a prism lock, which they 551 00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:10.359 called a prism trap. So unless they've changed the name, 552 00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:12.920 I'm assuming they just fucked up the name because it's 553 00:28:12.960 --> 00:28:18.400 the prism lock. But Roxanne Perez runs in also full 554 00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:21.319 body suit. She runs in. She attacks Ria from behind. 555 00:28:21.640 --> 00:28:24.279 Ripley fought her off outside the ring and then suplexter 556 00:28:24.400 --> 00:28:29.039 on the floor. Ria then placed a trash can over Roxanne, 557 00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:31.440 who was so tiny that she could probably stuff her 558 00:28:31.559 --> 00:28:34.960 entire body into this garbage can, but she puts her 559 00:28:34.960 --> 00:28:37.279 in a garbage can and then delivers a sliding kick. 560 00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:41.039 Rodriguez used the distraction to drive Riha into the steel 561 00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:44.880 post and then into the ring steps. Rodriguez followed with 562 00:28:44.880 --> 00:28:47.720 a twisting elbow drop off the middle rope inside for 563 00:28:47.759 --> 00:28:50.920 a two count. She then placed the table across the 564 00:28:51.000 --> 00:28:55.440 top rope in one of the corners to create a platform. 565 00:28:55.759 --> 00:28:58.599 So if you remember, speaking of street fights, when Kurt 566 00:28:58.640 --> 00:29:02.240 Angle and Shane McMahon, who actually had their classic King 567 00:29:02.279 --> 00:29:04.920 of the Ring street fight, God, it was this month. 568 00:29:05.319 --> 00:29:07.799 How many years ago? It was two thousand and one, 569 00:29:08.119 --> 00:29:10.720 right or was it two thousand. I'm pretty sure it was 570 00:29:10.759 --> 00:29:15.000 two thousand and one, so we're talking twenty four years ago. 571 00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:17.519 They did a similar spot, I think for the finish 572 00:29:17.720 --> 00:29:19.960 in their match. I think Kurt gave him an angle slam, 573 00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:23.960 so that's what they did here. They ended up climbing 574 00:29:24.000 --> 00:29:27.799 on top of the table, which was weeebling and wobbling, 575 00:29:27.799 --> 00:29:29.640 and the referee was trying to hold it in position. 576 00:29:30.279 --> 00:29:34.119 And Ria delivered an avalanche riptide off the table and 577 00:29:34.359 --> 00:29:37.960 she pinned Raquel to win the match. This was a 578 00:29:37.960 --> 00:29:41.039 good street fight, nothing too violence here. It's what you 579 00:29:41.079 --> 00:29:44.640 would expect from a WWE street fight. You got your kendosticks, 580 00:29:44.759 --> 00:29:47.720 you got the ring steps, you got the tables. It's 581 00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:50.000 very similar to what we got on SmackDown last night 582 00:29:50.200 --> 00:29:52.079 between Tiffany Stratton and Naya Jacks. 583 00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:55.319 But this was better than that. The thing with Raquel, though, 584 00:29:55.400 --> 00:29:56.599 she hasn't. 585 00:29:56.119 --> 00:30:01.200 Been booked as a serious threat to any buddy on TV, 586 00:30:02.119 --> 00:30:04.119 so I don't think there was a single person who 587 00:30:04.160 --> 00:30:07.039 really truly believed that she was going to get the 588 00:30:07.079 --> 00:30:09.559 win here, or that she was a real serious threat, 589 00:30:09.799 --> 00:30:12.720 you know, coming into this match. But this was the 590 00:30:12.720 --> 00:30:17.039 best match that I've seen her have in forever. These 591 00:30:17.039 --> 00:30:20.119 two just work really well together here. The announcer was 592 00:30:20.200 --> 00:30:25.160 very notable that the announcers push that Rhea is wants 593 00:30:25.200 --> 00:30:27.960 to be going for the world Championship again, and she 594 00:30:28.039 --> 00:30:30.480 said the same thing on the kickoff show. They were 595 00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:35.680 really pushing that point hard. So on the subject of 596 00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:38.640 what do you do with Rhea Ripley at SummerSlam, I'm 597 00:30:38.680 --> 00:30:41.640 still hoping we get Osca and EO. I know Osca 598 00:30:41.799 --> 00:30:44.680 and we'll talk later, but Oscar didn't win tonight, big shock. 599 00:30:45.440 --> 00:30:48.519 But I would love to see Osca and EO for. 600 00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:50.759 The women's world title. And they teased it on Monday. 601 00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:52.799 They had a segment. I don't think it aired on 602 00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:54.519 the show. I think it was during the commercial break, 603 00:30:54.880 --> 00:30:56.640 but they had a little interaction in the back and 604 00:30:56.640 --> 00:31:00.960 they very clearly teased a possible match between them for SummerSlam. 605 00:31:01.200 --> 00:31:02.920 I would love to see that be the Women's world 606 00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:06.240 title match. It is hard for me to imagine that 607 00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:08.599 Rhea Ripley is not going to have a major match 608 00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:11.640 on that Summer Slam cars two nights this year. She 609 00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:15.319 is the biggest star in the entire division, and she 610 00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:19.880 has no real obvious direction right now. Do you work 611 00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:23.279 her back into the world title picture again? Do you 612 00:31:23.359 --> 00:31:26.720 do maybe a triple threat and have her and EO 613 00:31:26.839 --> 00:31:29.240 and Oscar? But then it's basically a carbon copy of 614 00:31:29.279 --> 00:31:32.920 what you just did at WrestleMania. You're only substituting Osca 615 00:31:32.920 --> 00:31:33.640 for Bianca. 616 00:31:34.640 --> 00:31:34.839 Right. 617 00:31:34.880 --> 00:31:38.440 As great as that match was at WrestleMania, I don't know, 618 00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:40.559 that would just feel like a. 619 00:31:40.519 --> 00:31:41.200 Retread to me. 620 00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:46.240 Rhea Ripley against Stephanie Viquerre, who is one of the 621 00:31:46.279 --> 00:31:50.480 newer additions to the raw roster, fast rising star, right, 622 00:31:50.599 --> 00:31:54.839 very popular. That's a future WrestleMania match, you know. But 623 00:31:54.880 --> 00:31:57.359 you could do it, right. They're both babyfaces. If you 624 00:31:57.400 --> 00:31:59.559 want to just take them and put them in a feud, 625 00:31:59.599 --> 00:32:00.240 you could do that. 626 00:32:01.000 --> 00:32:02.960 I don't know. I don't know what they're gonna do 627 00:32:03.200 --> 00:32:05.640 with Rhea, but the fact that they were. 628 00:32:05.480 --> 00:32:08.119 Really pushing hard the idea of her going after the 629 00:32:08.119 --> 00:32:11.000 world title again, that might be an indication of what 630 00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:15.440 they plan on doing with her. We had Sammy z 631 00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:21.720 Ain against Carrion. Cross came out with Scarlett, who was 632 00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:25.640 out there in her bodysuit looking like Catwoman. This was 633 00:32:25.720 --> 00:32:31.880 Cross's first ple match since last year's WrestleMania when the 634 00:32:31.920 --> 00:32:34.960 Final Testament took on Bobby Lashley in the Street profits 635 00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:40.359 and his first singles match on a ple. How's this 636 00:32:40.400 --> 00:32:43.799 for a stat The last time Carry and Cross before 637 00:32:43.920 --> 00:32:46.480 this show had a singles match with a ple was 638 00:32:46.519 --> 00:32:51.720 actually here in Riot. It was against Drew McIntyre inside 639 00:32:51.759 --> 00:32:55.680 a steel cage. That match took place three years ago. 640 00:32:56.880 --> 00:33:02.000 That's how long it's been. So for all the nonsense 641 00:33:02.039 --> 00:33:05.079 about Carrying Cross. 642 00:33:05.079 --> 00:33:07.359 Not wanting to take back bumps. 643 00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:09.599 I saw that all over social media this week and 644 00:33:09.720 --> 00:33:14.880 clips going around showing Cross taking these awkward bumps and oh, 645 00:33:14.920 --> 00:33:17.799 he doesn't take back bumps, he doesn't take bumps properly. Right. 646 00:33:18.200 --> 00:33:20.519 He took plenty of bumps in this match. Hopefully that 647 00:33:20.519 --> 00:33:23.119 will shut that shit down as far as like. 648 00:33:23.039 --> 00:33:24.799 Oh, this is why he's not getting. 649 00:33:24.440 --> 00:33:29.240 Pushed, Like, yeah, that's why, that's why he's not getting 650 00:33:29.759 --> 00:33:33.240 you know, a major push, you fucking break. He took 651 00:33:33.240 --> 00:33:34.880 plenty of but he looked like he was bumping just 652 00:33:34.960 --> 00:33:39.200 fine here in this match. So Cross got a good 653 00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:42.559 reaction for his entrance, nothing like what Sammy got coming 654 00:33:42.599 --> 00:33:46.960 out obviously. Here in Saudi, Cole said that Cross generated 655 00:33:46.960 --> 00:33:50.680 a ground swell of support online and so now he 656 00:33:50.839 --> 00:33:53.440 has to prove himself in the ring. And I'm just 657 00:33:53.519 --> 00:33:56.599 I'm listening to this and I'm thinking, oh boy, triple 658 00:33:56.759 --> 00:34:01.000 h now feeding scripted lines here to Michael Cole. Seeing 659 00:34:01.039 --> 00:34:03.880 all the online pressure and all the online support push 660 00:34:03.960 --> 00:34:07.839 cross hashtag push cross. This is his message back to 661 00:34:07.880 --> 00:34:11.280 all the fans, Well, he'd better perform. This is what 662 00:34:11.320 --> 00:34:16.599 you wanted. He better live up to expectations. Zain took 663 00:34:16.639 --> 00:34:19.880 control early on here in this match, until Cross cut 664 00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:25.360 him off with a doomsday Saido suplex. Later on, Cross 665 00:34:25.400 --> 00:34:27.880 hit a leaping death valley driver for a near fall. 666 00:34:28.400 --> 00:34:32.239 Cross went for the crossjacket submission, but Zayne avoided it. 667 00:34:32.280 --> 00:34:35.480 Cross stuff the Blue thunderbomb attempt put Sammy down with 668 00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:39.039 another doomsday Saido. Cross set up for the cross Hammer, 669 00:34:39.599 --> 00:34:43.320 but Zay ducked it and hit the Blue Thunderbomb for 670 00:34:43.519 --> 00:34:47.280 a two count. Zain hit an exploder suplex in the 671 00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:49.920 corner and then he tried for the Halluba kick Cross, 672 00:34:49.920 --> 00:34:52.599 They'll cut him off and applied the crossjackets submission, and 673 00:34:52.679 --> 00:34:55.800 he pulled Sammy down to the mat and he grapedvined him. 674 00:34:56.079 --> 00:34:59.280 So the referee goes over and Sammy he's struggling and 675 00:34:59.320 --> 00:35:01.239 he's fighting in the hole, and he's trying to fight 676 00:35:01.280 --> 00:35:03.719 his way out of it, and it looks like he's 677 00:35:03.760 --> 00:35:07.920 starting to fade. And the referee checked on Sammy's arm 678 00:35:08.440 --> 00:35:11.679 which fell to the mat, and then she picked it 679 00:35:11.760 --> 00:35:13.880 up and it fell to the mat for a second time, 680 00:35:14.360 --> 00:35:15.880 and then she picked it up and it fell to 681 00:35:15.920 --> 00:35:17.960 the mat for a third time. But then he immediately 682 00:35:18.559 --> 00:35:20.599 put the arm back up, so he was still in it, 683 00:35:20.639 --> 00:35:22.719 and eventually he got to the bottom rope to. 684 00:35:22.639 --> 00:35:23.280 Break the hold. 685 00:35:23.760 --> 00:35:27.679 I really wish that they would be more consistent with 686 00:35:27.760 --> 00:35:31.599 the arm drop. They're very inconsistent with it in most 687 00:35:31.760 --> 00:35:34.960 WWE matches, and that which, honestly, I mean, look, I 688 00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:37.719 grew up again watching this product at a time when 689 00:35:38.239 --> 00:35:40.599 the hand would have to go down three times and 690 00:35:40.639 --> 00:35:42.679 then the referee would call the match off right. It 691 00:35:42.719 --> 00:35:45.960 was very dramatic. Oh it dropped twice, if it drops 692 00:35:46.000 --> 00:35:50.039 one more time, like That's what I grew up on. Realistically, though, 693 00:35:50.519 --> 00:35:54.360 especially as they have incorporated more MMA elements into the 694 00:35:54.400 --> 00:35:57.760 product over the years, Ken Shamrock, you could thank him 695 00:35:57.760 --> 00:36:00.519 for the tap out right that we've had halpouts in 696 00:36:00.559 --> 00:36:03.519 this company ever since ninety seven. It really does make 697 00:36:03.559 --> 00:36:05.880 more sense though. If you think you're a referee and 698 00:36:05.920 --> 00:36:09.880 you think that somebody has just passed out unconscious, right, 699 00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:12.199 you check they're out, you call for the bell. You 700 00:36:12.239 --> 00:36:14.679 don't go, okay, let's raise the arm once, Let's raise 701 00:36:14.679 --> 00:36:16.960 the art like it makes more sense to do it 702 00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:19.039 that way. And that's what they do now for the 703 00:36:19.039 --> 00:36:21.000 most part. A few weeks ago, when Jay Uzo went 704 00:36:21.039 --> 00:36:23.159 out against Gunther, that's what they did in that match. 705 00:36:23.280 --> 00:36:25.400 The referee looked, he said, oh shit, Jay's out. Call 706 00:36:25.480 --> 00:36:29.000 for the bell, new world heavyweight champion. But here we 707 00:36:29.079 --> 00:36:30.960 got to raise the arm once, we got to raise 708 00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:35.480 the arts. It's just it's inconsistent. Just pick a lane 709 00:36:36.360 --> 00:36:39.079 and stick to it. It's just it's a minor thing, 710 00:36:39.159 --> 00:36:42.159 but it just it bugs me. So Cross asked Sammy 711 00:36:43.119 --> 00:36:44.000 what was wrong with him? 712 00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:44.760 What's wrong with you? 713 00:36:45.039 --> 00:36:47.119 And he told Sammy to learn how to stay down. 714 00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:49.679 Cross hit Sammy with a running clothes line in the corner. 715 00:36:50.599 --> 00:36:53.880 And now at this point he is yelling at Sammy, 716 00:36:54.599 --> 00:36:58.000 He's telling him say it, say Cross told you the truth. 717 00:36:58.960 --> 00:37:01.280 Cross backed up to the corner, hit a second clothes 718 00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:04.320 line to Sammy in the opposite corner, And when I 719 00:37:04.360 --> 00:37:07.079 saw him do that, I like I could visually see 720 00:37:07.159 --> 00:37:09.920 what the finish was going to be. I was like, 721 00:37:09.960 --> 00:37:12.559 he's gonna run for a third time into the other 722 00:37:12.599 --> 00:37:15.519 corner again for another clothes line, and as he's running in, 723 00:37:16.119 --> 00:37:18.880 he's not going to realize that Sammy is running behind him, 724 00:37:18.880 --> 00:37:19.440 and then we're going. 725 00:37:19.360 --> 00:37:20.320 To get the halluva kick. 726 00:37:20.360 --> 00:37:23.280 And that's exactly what they did, and he kicked him 727 00:37:23.320 --> 00:37:26.320 in the face and Sammy covered him and he got 728 00:37:26.360 --> 00:37:30.960 the pin. Would it have been nice for Carrying Cross 729 00:37:31.000 --> 00:37:33.840 to get the win here? Could he have benefited from 730 00:37:33.880 --> 00:37:37.280 beating someone like sammy'sz Ay, of course, but it was 731 00:37:37.320 --> 00:37:40.559 Saudi and Sammy wasn't losing, and Sammy is just at 732 00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:44.480 a level in the pecking order there that Carrying Cross 733 00:37:44.559 --> 00:37:47.159 is not. Not to mention the fact that Sammy was 734 00:37:47.239 --> 00:37:49.719 due to come back out to do a run in 735 00:37:49.719 --> 00:37:52.960 in the main event on this show, and Sammy is 736 00:37:52.960 --> 00:37:55.880 is in a way feuding with seth Rawlins and his crew, 737 00:37:56.639 --> 00:38:01.639 So I had no expectation carry and Cross actually winning 738 00:38:01.679 --> 00:38:04.400 this match here. But it was competitive enough. I mean, 739 00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:06.519 it wasn't like a squash, It wasn't like Sammy beat 740 00:38:06.559 --> 00:38:10.119 him in four minutes or anything like that. I thought 741 00:38:10.159 --> 00:38:13.840 that this was a fine Raw match. There was nothing 742 00:38:13.960 --> 00:38:16.440 terribly exciting about it, but it was solid. They told 743 00:38:16.480 --> 00:38:20.119 a simple story. Was it a one and done? Or 744 00:38:20.159 --> 00:38:22.239 this is the real question coming out of this now, 745 00:38:22.360 --> 00:38:25.199 was it a one and done? Are they going to 746 00:38:25.239 --> 00:38:29.400 do more with Carry and Cross? He's getting good reactions, right, 747 00:38:29.480 --> 00:38:32.559 nothing overwhelming, but like when people see him, when they 748 00:38:32.599 --> 00:38:36.559 show him in these backstage segments on Raw. It's not 749 00:38:36.639 --> 00:38:38.679 like we have crickets. There are people who will come 750 00:38:38.679 --> 00:38:41.480 out on these shows and they don't react. That was 751 00:38:41.519 --> 00:38:43.559 the issue with Zelena Vega and she was the United 752 00:38:43.559 --> 00:38:46.559 States champion. She would come out and nobody would react. 753 00:38:46.880 --> 00:38:49.840 He's getting reactions when people see him. When he came 754 00:38:49.920 --> 00:38:53.360 out here, he got a really good reaction. So that 755 00:38:53.480 --> 00:38:56.159 tells me that there are people out there who do 756 00:38:56.400 --> 00:38:59.519 like the guy. They like something about him, They want 757 00:38:59.559 --> 00:39:01.159 to see him do well, they want to see him 758 00:39:01.159 --> 00:39:04.519 do more. Like there is that level of support for him, 759 00:39:04.519 --> 00:39:07.679 a certain level of support. I would hope that he 760 00:39:07.719 --> 00:39:11.840 doesn't just go back to catering to hang out backstage, 761 00:39:12.199 --> 00:39:14.639 you know, kind of creeping on people. With Ludwig Kaiser, 762 00:39:14.880 --> 00:39:16.920 we haven't seen Kaiser at all over the last few 763 00:39:16.920 --> 00:39:18.920 months until Monday, And what did he do? 764 00:39:18.960 --> 00:39:19.519 He popped up. 765 00:39:19.519 --> 00:39:22.239 He was watching, he was in the background, in the shadows, 766 00:39:22.239 --> 00:39:24.880 he was watching. And that's the biggest thing he's done 767 00:39:24.920 --> 00:39:26.719 in like three or four months. I don't want to 768 00:39:26.719 --> 00:39:29.320 see Cross go back to just doing that. Right, There 769 00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:34.599 is something there. Explore it, do something with it, see 770 00:39:34.599 --> 00:39:37.239 where it goes, See if this is real or not. 771 00:39:37.960 --> 00:39:40.440 If the fans are really behind this guy, they will 772 00:39:40.440 --> 00:39:45.119 get behind him. And if they're not, then they won't 773 00:39:45.119 --> 00:39:47.960 be and he'll fall flat on his face. But at 774 00:39:48.039 --> 00:39:51.719 least try so. I hope they have something in mind 775 00:39:51.760 --> 00:39:54.400 for him coming out of this. What that is just 776 00:39:54.440 --> 00:39:56.039 off the top of my head, I don't know. I 777 00:39:56.039 --> 00:39:58.400 don't know if this issue with Sammy's is going to be, 778 00:39:58.960 --> 00:40:01.000 you know, continuing out. Don't really see a reason for 779 00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:05.559 it too after this, But just do something. There's something there. 780 00:40:05.719 --> 00:40:09.400 Do something with this guy. Today's episode is sponsored by 781 00:40:09.519 --> 00:40:12.559 Factor Form. We all try to eat better or take 782 00:40:12.599 --> 00:40:14.360 supplements that we think are going to be good for 783 00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:17.719 our overall health. I've tried a couple of powders before 784 00:40:17.920 --> 00:40:21.719 Greens Powders that tasted like chalk, and I could barely 785 00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:24.280 stand it, couldn't. I couldn't imagine taking them every day, 786 00:40:24.440 --> 00:40:27.159 so that didn't last long. It's one thing to tolerate 787 00:40:27.239 --> 00:40:29.400 something you think might be good for you, even if 788 00:40:29.440 --> 00:40:32.039 it tastes terrible, But it's even better to find something 789 00:40:32.039 --> 00:40:35.159 you actually can enjoy using so you're not torturing yourself. 790 00:40:35.480 --> 00:40:38.159 That's what I was able to find finally, with Daily 791 00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:41.800 Greens by factor Form. Factor Form is the sister brand 792 00:40:41.880 --> 00:40:44.440 to Factor Meals, which you've heard me talk about before. 793 00:40:44.480 --> 00:40:46.880 I'm a big fan of their meals as well.

Now, there's no 799 00:40:59.599 --> 00:41:02.840 need to read drinking greens.

Jacob Fatu against Solo Socoa for the United 826 00:42:31.880 --> 00:42:34.360 States Championship. Like I said, we had one US title 827 00:42:34.440 --> 00:42:36.840 change this weekend in Riod, would we have another one? 828 00:42:37.480 --> 00:42:40.239 Solo entered alone no j C. Matteo. 829 00:42:40.840 --> 00:42:43.360 He retreated out to the floor early, so Jacob went 830 00:42:43.400 --> 00:42:46.360 out after him, and actually he launched himself off the 831 00:42:46.440 --> 00:42:49.719 ring steps with a clothesline, took Solo down. Back in 832 00:42:49.760 --> 00:42:53.039 the ring, a couple of running sentans and Jacob was 833 00:42:53.079 --> 00:42:56.039 going to go for the Mighty Moonsaw Solo. They'll rolled 834 00:42:56.039 --> 00:42:59.760 outside again and when Fatu went for a suicide dive, 835 00:43:00.039 --> 00:43:02.679 so cut him off with a punch. He had a 836 00:43:02.719 --> 00:43:05.079 spinning Solo on the ring apron, and then he had 837 00:43:05.079 --> 00:43:08.119 a spinning Solo on the floor. So now Solo was 838 00:43:08.159 --> 00:43:12.840 on offense instead of playing defense. Jacob briefly, this was 839 00:43:12.920 --> 00:43:16.920 kind of funny. Jacob is laying outside the ring and 840 00:43:17.559 --> 00:43:21.559 he like part of his body he crawled under the ring, 841 00:43:22.480 --> 00:43:24.320 like he stuck his head under the ring. I'm like, 842 00:43:24.320 --> 00:43:28.199 what's he doing that? For and then came back out 843 00:43:28.280 --> 00:43:31.800 and the match went on. I'm like, somebody's under that ring, 844 00:43:32.119 --> 00:43:33.960 right and it a fucking hornswoggle. 845 00:43:34.039 --> 00:43:37.280 Somebody's under this ring. I pretty much knew who it was, 846 00:43:38.119 --> 00:43:38.760 been telling. 847 00:43:38.559 --> 00:43:40.559 You for weeks when we were going to see Hiccoleo, 848 00:43:41.800 --> 00:43:43.639 So that right there should have told you that there 849 00:43:43.719 --> 00:43:47.119 was someone underneath the ring. Back inside, Solo caught him 850 00:43:47.119 --> 00:43:50.199 with a running hip attack and then Sokoa took him 851 00:43:50.239 --> 00:43:52.599 to the mat with a rear naked choke. We got 852 00:43:52.599 --> 00:43:56.639 to rest for a little bit. How exciting. Fatu rallied 853 00:43:56.679 --> 00:43:59.119 back to his feet. He fired back until Solo dumped 854 00:43:59.159 --> 00:44:01.480 him on what looked like on top of his fucking 855 00:44:01.559 --> 00:44:05.920 head with an overhead belly to back suplex. Fatu though 856 00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:08.880 pop right up hit a German of his own, and 857 00:44:08.920 --> 00:44:11.519 then Fa Tou hit an impaler DDT and he headed 858 00:44:11.599 --> 00:44:13.440 up top and he hit a swanton pom. 859 00:44:14.280 --> 00:44:15.559 Kick out by Solo at two. 860 00:44:16.119 --> 00:44:18.480 So Jacob now is headed up to the top rope. 861 00:44:18.559 --> 00:44:22.320 Here comes j. C. Matteo comes down to the ring. 862 00:44:23.719 --> 00:44:29.800 This distracts the referee. All of a sudden, a man 863 00:44:29.880 --> 00:44:33.440 decked out in all black, in like an all black 864 00:44:33.480 --> 00:44:37.800 hoodie hits the ring to intercept Fatu, trip him up 865 00:44:38.159 --> 00:44:40.199 on the top rope, and then he drops him with 866 00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:43.599 a spinning neck breaker off the ropes. Right he gets 867 00:44:43.639 --> 00:44:46.480 in the ring and then he grabs Fatu spinning neck 868 00:44:46.480 --> 00:44:51.079 breaker and then he reveals himself. And I'm sitting here 869 00:44:51.119 --> 00:44:56.719 and I thought, oh my god, it's Tonga Loa. And 870 00:44:56.760 --> 00:44:59.480 the crowd seemed to recognize, like once they showed his face. 871 00:44:59.519 --> 00:45:02.239 They actually he did recognize who it was. And I 872 00:45:02.239 --> 00:45:05.199 don't want to say that they reacted big. I mean 873 00:45:05.199 --> 00:45:09.000 they reacted it's like, oh, it's him, so it's like 874 00:45:09.079 --> 00:45:12.639 they knew who it was. But yes, the Great Tangaloa 875 00:45:13.239 --> 00:45:15.920 is back. We have not seen him since War Games. 876 00:45:15.960 --> 00:45:19.639 We were told it's been quite some time. There was 877 00:45:19.639 --> 00:45:23.719 a Samoan spike after this by Solo Socoa. Jacob avoided it, 878 00:45:23.840 --> 00:45:26.800 hit a super kick, then he knocked JC Matteo off 879 00:45:26.840 --> 00:45:30.599 the apron and then he fell into Tongaloa on the 880 00:45:30.639 --> 00:45:34.480 floor and then Jacob Fatu comes off the ropes and 881 00:45:34.599 --> 00:45:39.960 Jacob Fatu hits a fucking Fosberry flop out over the 882 00:45:39.960 --> 00:45:43.400 top row and he wipes both men out on the floor. 883 00:45:44.960 --> 00:45:45.719 Very impressive. 884 00:45:45.760 --> 00:45:50.239 When we see Will Osprey doing a Fosberry flop in 885 00:45:50.280 --> 00:45:54.840 a match. To see Jacob fa Tu doing a Fosberry 886 00:45:54.840 --> 00:45:59.360 flop is just fucking insane. I was not expecting that 887 00:45:59.559 --> 00:46:02.639 in this man, but there it is. Back in the ring, 888 00:46:02.719 --> 00:46:05.559 Fatu hits a pop up Samo and drop to Sokoa. 889 00:46:06.480 --> 00:46:09.199 Jace Matteo gets back in the ring. Now the referee 890 00:46:09.239 --> 00:46:11.639 is seeing all of this, being very lenient here. As 891 00:46:11.679 --> 00:46:15.679 all of this is going on, Mateo eats a super kick. 892 00:46:16.159 --> 00:46:20.639 Mateo then eats a running hip attack. Fatu then heads 893 00:46:20.719 --> 00:46:24.079 up to the top and he hits the Mighty Moonsalt. 894 00:46:24.079 --> 00:46:28.360 The problem is there is no referee. Now I'm sitting 895 00:46:28.360 --> 00:46:30.440 here and I'm thinking, why is the referee not there? 896 00:46:30.840 --> 00:46:33.159 And we were told, oh, the referee is over with 897 00:46:33.320 --> 00:46:33.599 j C. 898 00:46:33.800 --> 00:46:34.239 Mitteo. 899 00:46:35.199 --> 00:46:37.840 I assume the referee went over to check on jac 900 00:46:37.960 --> 00:46:40.599 Mitteo because Jace Miteo was down and that jac didn't 901 00:46:40.639 --> 00:46:43.519 just grab the referee. And I'm thinking, well, this is 902 00:46:43.559 --> 00:46:47.559 incredibly stupid because Jace Matteo should not be any of 903 00:46:47.599 --> 00:46:50.320 his concern He is not part of this match. He's 904 00:46:50.400 --> 00:46:53.639 currently down and there is a championship match in progress. 905 00:46:54.239 --> 00:46:56.719 So the referee is busy checking up on somebody who 906 00:46:56.800 --> 00:46:59.599 isn't even part of the frickin' match. But that means 907 00:46:59.599 --> 00:47:02.360 there's no referee to count the fall and who should 908 00:47:02.400 --> 00:47:08.800 reach into the ring to pull Jacob Fatu outside. They 909 00:47:08.840 --> 00:47:13.960 never identified him by name, but it was Hickuleo he has. 910 00:47:14.199 --> 00:47:16.280 I could tell just by the hair, just by the 911 00:47:16.320 --> 00:47:18.559 permed hair. I knew right away exactly who it was. 912 00:47:19.840 --> 00:47:22.519 So they never identified him by name. Hicckuleo as a 913 00:47:22.599 --> 00:47:26.480 name is very likely a thing of the past. Michael 914 00:47:26.519 --> 00:47:29.280 Cole did mention though, that he's the brother of Tomatonga 915 00:47:29.360 --> 00:47:34.039 and tongaloa kind of He was tripping over his words 916 00:47:34.039 --> 00:47:36.440 as he tried to read from what very obviously was 917 00:47:36.480 --> 00:47:40.760 his script that he was trying to read from. Wade 918 00:47:40.800 --> 00:47:46.559 Barrett called him seven feet tall, seven feet tall. If 919 00:47:46.559 --> 00:47:49.840 he's seven feet tall, then I'm eight feet tall. He 920 00:47:49.880 --> 00:47:52.800 ain't no seven feet tall, especially what he is standing 921 00:47:52.880 --> 00:47:57.079 right next to Jacob Fatu, and he's just a little 922 00:47:57.119 --> 00:48:00.960 bit taller than Jacob Fatu. But of course it's wrestling, 923 00:48:01.000 --> 00:48:03.639 and so that's what they do. You have to exaggerate everything. 924 00:48:04.119 --> 00:48:05.880 So he went to go choke slam him onto the 925 00:48:05.880 --> 00:48:08.960 announced desk, the desk did not break. We can't even 926 00:48:09.000 --> 00:48:11.880 get a table break from a seven foot tall guy. 927 00:48:11.760 --> 00:48:13.079 Doing a choke slam. 928 00:48:13.679 --> 00:48:15.599 He threw fa Tu back in the ring, where Solo 929 00:48:15.639 --> 00:48:17.559 picked him up and delivered a Samo and spike. 930 00:48:18.719 --> 00:48:21.880 Blessed Jacob. He took this inside. 931 00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:24.920 Out I call it the Rakishi bump because he always 932 00:48:25.039 --> 00:48:26.760 used to take that bump, like back in the day 933 00:48:26.800 --> 00:48:29.320 when he was wrestling as Fatu, before there was a 934 00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:32.639 Jacob Fatu, we had Fatu. He would always do this 935 00:48:32.800 --> 00:48:35.719 inside out bump, like on a clothesline or something, so 936 00:48:35.760 --> 00:48:38.079 that's what he did for the spike. You've never seen 937 00:48:38.119 --> 00:48:40.599 someone bump for a Samo and spike like this before. 938 00:48:41.159 --> 00:48:43.880 And Solo covered him and pinned Jacob to win the 939 00:48:44.039 --> 00:48:47.039 United States Championship. As I said at the beginning of 940 00:48:47.079 --> 00:48:51.960 the stream, the bloodline has respawned. It is the faction 941 00:48:52.079 --> 00:48:56.239 that will never die. Solo Socoa claims his first championship 942 00:48:56.719 --> 00:49:00.199 here on the main roster. And I told you I 943 00:49:00.239 --> 00:49:04.400 told two weeks ago, even before people started talking about Hicculeo, 944 00:49:04.480 --> 00:49:08.880 I said, put the championship on Solo Soco. That's what 945 00:49:08.920 --> 00:49:10.840 I would do, That's what I thought they would do. 946 00:49:11.679 --> 00:49:15.039 Debut Hicculeo on this show. Let him be the new 947 00:49:15.079 --> 00:49:19.039 heavy for Sokoa. Let him factor into the finish. That 948 00:49:19.119 --> 00:49:21.559 way you protect Jacob. It's not like Solo is just 949 00:49:21.800 --> 00:49:24.000 you know, pinning him straight up. Obviously, he's going to 950 00:49:24.079 --> 00:49:26.800 need a shitload of support, which is what he had here. 951 00:49:26.880 --> 00:49:29.519 He had the support of three guys. It took four 952 00:49:29.599 --> 00:49:35.599 men to beat Jacob, thought to And so now Hicculeo, finally, 953 00:49:35.639 --> 00:49:39.000 after being mia for so long over a year, is 954 00:49:39.039 --> 00:49:41.800 now on the main roster. He's part of the bloodline. 955 00:49:42.559 --> 00:49:44.440 And I mean, think about it. We went from having 956 00:49:44.880 --> 00:49:47.039 two guys left in this group. It wasn't even a 957 00:49:47.039 --> 00:49:51.199 group anymore, and now they have doubled in size. And 958 00:49:51.239 --> 00:49:54.400 that doesn't even count Tomatonga, who also got hurt. I 959 00:49:54.440 --> 00:49:57.320 don't even know what the injury is, but he got 960 00:49:57.360 --> 00:49:59.760 hurt a few months ago. I think he may have 961 00:49:59.800 --> 00:50:02.920 had surgery. I'm not expecting to see him anytime soon. 962 00:50:03.320 --> 00:50:07.000 I wasn't expecting to see Tangaloa either, but there he 963 00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:09.800 was there. But this also now gives something at least 964 00:50:09.800 --> 00:50:12.360 for Jimmy to do. You know, now Jimmy Uso at 965 00:50:12.440 --> 00:50:15.320 least has some kind of a direction on this show. 966 00:50:16.159 --> 00:50:18.039 I don't want to bury the lead here though I 967 00:50:18.039 --> 00:50:19.679 know we have a new champion and I know we 968 00:50:19.719 --> 00:50:23.440 have a new debut, but the real story here is 969 00:50:23.480 --> 00:50:26.159 the return of Tangaloa. This is going to change the 970 00:50:26.199 --> 00:50:30.719 game now on Friday nights, Tangaloa Fan. I have to 971 00:50:30.760 --> 00:50:34.239 assume Tangaloa Fan is with us in the chat, although 972 00:50:34.280 --> 00:50:36.360 his name may be different because all the names are 973 00:50:36.400 --> 00:50:38.719 fucked up. But I hope you're here. You're the first 974 00:50:38.719 --> 00:50:41.440 person I thought of, like at all seriousness. As soon 975 00:50:41.480 --> 00:50:44.320 as I saw Togaloa, I thought of you. I was 976 00:50:44.440 --> 00:50:46.119 very hap I was happy for you in the way 977 00:50:46.119 --> 00:50:49.000 that I was happy for Bliss Fan at the Rumble 978 00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:52.519 when we saw Alexa come out, because I just knew, 979 00:50:52.559 --> 00:50:56.960 I could feel, I could feel the happiness. So if 980 00:50:56.960 --> 00:50:59.719 nothing else, I am very happy for Tangaloa Fan. And 981 00:50:59.760 --> 00:51:02.480 I will say this much. If Tangaloa Fan is not 982 00:51:02.559 --> 00:51:04.920 here with us and we don't hear from him, we 983 00:51:05.039 --> 00:51:07.800 will know who Toangaloa Fan really was over these past 984 00:51:07.880 --> 00:51:12.400 several months. It will become very clear very quickly. As 985 00:51:12.440 --> 00:51:16.159 far as the match itself, solid match, nothing all that 986 00:51:16.280 --> 00:51:18.519 great here. The referee stuff at the end I thought 987 00:51:18.559 --> 00:51:22.639 was very dumb. You know, that would have been better 988 00:51:22.639 --> 00:51:25.480 having the referee get bumped honestly, instead of being made 989 00:51:25.480 --> 00:51:28.239 to look like a goofball, you know, just take like 990 00:51:28.280 --> 00:51:31.360 a small bump and then try to get their bearings 991 00:51:31.400 --> 00:51:33.719 about them so that they can't see what was going on. 992 00:51:33.840 --> 00:51:36.079 I mean, sometimes they just make the And this goes 993 00:51:36.119 --> 00:51:39.480 for both companies, Like, there are ways that you can 994 00:51:39.519 --> 00:51:41.920 have the referee taken out of the equation for a 995 00:51:42.440 --> 00:51:46.239 set period of time without making all of your referees 996 00:51:46.320 --> 00:51:49.599 just look like a bunch of incompetent geeks. And they 997 00:51:49.599 --> 00:51:52.559 do it in both companies and it's funny. I don't 998 00:51:52.559 --> 00:51:54.599 know if it's intended to be funny, but I mean 999 00:51:54.719 --> 00:51:57.400 it's hilarious to me. But they just make them look 1000 00:51:57.519 --> 00:52:02.039 so inept. And this was yet another one of those examples. 1001 00:52:02.440 --> 00:52:04.440 And I don't know why you would do that when 1002 00:52:04.440 --> 00:52:06.519 there are other ways that you could take the referee 1003 00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:08.840 out of the picture so that they don't see what's 1004 00:52:08.880 --> 00:52:11.519 going on, and then they recover and then they come 1005 00:52:11.559 --> 00:52:12.400 back to count the fall. 1006 00:52:13.320 --> 00:52:14.599 Solo winning was the right move. 1007 00:52:14.639 --> 00:52:17.280 Though it was the right some people might not want 1008 00:52:17.280 --> 00:52:19.880 to hear that, but solo Soko winning here was the 1009 00:52:19.960 --> 00:52:24.039 right move. Now, let me mention this. I feel like 1010 00:52:24.199 --> 00:52:26.719 and we had chance tonight during the show, including in 1011 00:52:26.760 --> 00:52:30.960 the main event when Seth came out loud chance of OTC. 1012 00:52:31.320 --> 00:52:33.559 People thought Roman Reigns was going to come out at 1013 00:52:33.599 --> 00:52:36.360 the end of this show, and I've been thinking along 1014 00:52:36.400 --> 00:52:38.840 the same lines of when do we see Roman Reigns back? 1015 00:52:39.119 --> 00:52:39.280 Right? 1016 00:52:39.480 --> 00:52:41.400 When do we see Roman Reigns back? And when is 1017 00:52:41.440 --> 00:52:42.960 he going to go after Seth? I thought maybe it 1018 00:52:42.960 --> 00:52:48.320 would happen at Money in the Bank, didn't happen. Maybe 1019 00:52:48.360 --> 00:52:53.159 we're looking at this the wrong way because Seth very 1020 00:52:53.199 --> 00:52:58.360 clearly the issues with Seth and Punk are continuing. Maybe 1021 00:52:58.400 --> 00:53:01.519 when Roman Reigns comes back, and I have to imagine 1022 00:53:01.519 --> 00:53:03.639 that we'll see him in time to be on the 1023 00:53:03.639 --> 00:53:07.119 Summer Slam card, although last year I guess he came 1024 00:53:07.119 --> 00:53:10.159 back at SummerSlam, but I presume he'll have a match 1025 00:53:10.760 --> 00:53:12.239 two nights of Summer Slam. Are you gotta have a 1026 00:53:12.360 --> 00:53:15.920 Roman Rains match? Are we looking at this wrong? And 1027 00:53:16.000 --> 00:53:17.920 is Roman Reign's gonna come back to be part of 1028 00:53:17.920 --> 00:53:21.960 this story? I kind of hope not because it doesn't 1029 00:53:21.960 --> 00:53:23.920 get me excited. I feel like we've already been down 1030 00:53:24.000 --> 00:53:27.599 this road before with him and the bloodline, and I 1031 00:53:27.639 --> 00:53:29.360 was kind of looking forward to getting him away from 1032 00:53:29.400 --> 00:53:32.599 all that, even though he was really the most important 1033 00:53:32.639 --> 00:53:35.039 part of the bloodline stuff. He was the bloodline for 1034 00:53:35.079 --> 00:53:38.079 so many years. But you see what's going on here 1035 00:53:38.119 --> 00:53:41.599 where Solo now is gaining new members of his army. 1036 00:53:41.800 --> 00:53:46.280 We have Solo Socoa, TONGALOA Hicculeo, j C. Matteo, Toma Tongda. 1037 00:53:46.280 --> 00:53:49.800 Maybe back in a few months, four or five guys 1038 00:53:50.480 --> 00:53:55.239 on the other side, Jacob Fatu, Jimmy Uso. They're outnumbered, 1039 00:53:55.960 --> 00:53:59.800 They're gonna need help. Is that where Roman Reigns comes 1040 00:53:59.840 --> 00:54:03.960 in to play. Are we gearing up for a war 1041 00:54:04.119 --> 00:54:10.360 Games match in November Solo's army against the other bloodline 1042 00:54:10.639 --> 00:54:17.079 with Roman, Jacob and the usos. Is that what we're 1043 00:54:17.119 --> 00:54:17.800 looking at here? 1044 00:54:19.480 --> 00:54:19.760 Again? 1045 00:54:19.800 --> 00:54:23.639 I can't say that that gets me overly excited. But 1046 00:54:23.719 --> 00:54:26.719 maybe maybe when Roman comes back, it's not a seth thing. 1047 00:54:27.079 --> 00:54:30.639 Maybe it's still a bloodline thing, and some of us 1048 00:54:30.719 --> 00:54:32.800 are just looking at this the wrong way. Let me 1049 00:54:32.840 --> 00:54:34.519 know what you think. I don't know if that's something 1050 00:54:34.519 --> 00:54:39.719 that people are actually excited about. I did, yes, Darth Panic, 1051 00:54:39.760 --> 00:54:42.519 I did see that he's got that role. He got 1052 00:54:42.519 --> 00:54:45.519 the role of Akuma in this street Fighter movie. I 1053 00:54:45.519 --> 00:54:49.159 don't know when that movie begins filming, So, you know what, 1054 00:54:49.840 --> 00:54:51.800 I don't know when the movie begins filming. I suppose 1055 00:54:51.800 --> 00:54:54.400 if it starts soon, maybe maybe he would miss Summer Slim. 1056 00:54:54.400 --> 00:54:54.840 I don't know. 1057 00:54:56.199 --> 00:54:59.320 All of this is contingent upon his his movie schedule. 1058 00:54:59.360 --> 00:55:02.840 I guess, I guess that's the wild card here. It 1059 00:55:02.920 --> 00:55:04.559 just feels to me like maybe that's what we're looking 1060 00:55:04.599 --> 00:55:06.639 at here, because I'm looking at Jay Uso and wondering 1061 00:55:06.679 --> 00:55:08.880 the same thing, Like Jay's out of the World title picture. Now, 1062 00:55:08.920 --> 00:55:11.559 as far as I'm concerned, it's time to move on 1063 00:55:11.679 --> 00:55:15.119 and move on to whatever else is next. I certainly 1064 00:55:15.119 --> 00:55:17.719 don't want to go back to Jay Uso and Gunther again. 1065 00:55:18.360 --> 00:55:20.159 So then what do you do with Jay? You know 1066 00:55:20.239 --> 00:55:23.400 what's next for him? And that's what made me think, oh, 1067 00:55:23.440 --> 00:55:25.199 maybe they're going to get the band back together, but 1068 00:55:25.280 --> 00:55:33.079 with Jacob this time. So Carol says filming starts in August. Well, 1069 00:55:33.079 --> 00:55:36.400 summer slams at the beginning of August, so if filming 1070 00:55:36.400 --> 00:55:38.559 doesn't start until later in August, he could be at 1071 00:55:38.599 --> 00:55:42.039 summer Slim, I suppose, But if they're kicking off filming 1072 00:55:42.079 --> 00:55:43.360 in August, then yeah, he's gonna be. 1073 00:55:43.360 --> 00:55:44.039 Gone for a while. 1074 00:55:45.360 --> 00:55:48.280 He's never around though, so like you could actually bring 1075 00:55:48.400 --> 00:55:50.320 Roman back in time for summer, Slim, let him do 1076 00:55:50.360 --> 00:55:53.039 whatever he's going to do. He probably would disappear after 1077 00:55:53.079 --> 00:55:56.000 that anyway, if he only needs like a couple of 1078 00:55:56.000 --> 00:55:58.239 months to go film it. Actually, it might not make 1079 00:55:58.280 --> 00:56:02.719 a difference. It's not like he there every week. We 1080 00:56:02.800 --> 00:56:06.800 haven't seen him since Wrestle Media. He might film an 1081 00:56:06.960 --> 00:56:10.599 entire fucking movie and we wouldn't even know because he's 1082 00:56:10.599 --> 00:56:12.840 never around. So it might not even matter. It might 1083 00:56:12.880 --> 00:56:17.639 be fine. We have the Queen of the Ring finals 1084 00:56:18.239 --> 00:56:23.599 between Jade Cargill and Oscar. Where as Wade Barrett calls 1085 00:56:23.639 --> 00:56:31.599 her asca Asca, sounds like something Chris Jericho would ask 1086 00:56:31.639 --> 00:56:33.199 the referee to do if he was ever in an 1087 00:56:33.239 --> 00:56:34.159 intergender match. 1088 00:56:34.679 --> 00:56:38.679 Asca Ascar. Jade was booed. 1089 00:56:39.119 --> 00:56:42.079 Oscar was the clear fan favorite here and Oscar carried 1090 00:56:42.119 --> 00:56:44.599 most of this match. Don't be surprise you heard it 1091 00:56:44.639 --> 00:56:48.199 here first. Don't be surprised if you read reports tomorrow 1092 00:56:48.639 --> 00:56:51.840 that Oscar has a bad back because of how much 1093 00:56:51.840 --> 00:56:55.079 weight she had to carry. Here In this match, Oscar 1094 00:56:55.199 --> 00:56:58.760 kept targeting the leg, Jade kept fighting her off. Jade 1095 00:56:58.840 --> 00:57:01.000 hit a fallaway slam in a chokes lamb for two. 1096 00:57:01.760 --> 00:57:04.239 Oscar responded with a code breaker and a missile drop 1097 00:57:04.360 --> 00:57:07.079 kick for two of her own. Jade ducked a kick 1098 00:57:07.480 --> 00:57:10.480 and hit a sit out power bomb. Then she fought 1099 00:57:10.480 --> 00:57:12.400 out of an arm bar. She hit a big boot, 1100 00:57:13.119 --> 00:57:17.400 Oscar avoided a Jaded attempt, went for an Oscar Locke Cargil, 1101 00:57:17.440 --> 00:57:21.159 though rolled out of it. Oscar went for a running 1102 00:57:21.199 --> 00:57:24.400 hip attack, which is her new finishing move, right they 1103 00:57:24.440 --> 00:57:27.119 call it the Empress Impact. 1104 00:57:27.239 --> 00:57:30.920 Is that the new move for it? I believe Empress impact? 1105 00:57:30.960 --> 00:57:33.039 Well, she went for the Empress Impact and it didn't 1106 00:57:33.079 --> 00:57:36.519 work because as she came off the ropes and tried 1107 00:57:36.559 --> 00:57:40.880 to shoot her ass into Jade's face, Jade caught her 1108 00:57:40.920 --> 00:57:45.559 and hit Jaded to win the crown. And Jade botched 1109 00:57:45.639 --> 00:57:48.920 the pin as well. And you know how when she 1110 00:57:49.000 --> 00:57:52.960 hits Jaded, she sits on her opponent, hooks the leg 1111 00:57:53.280 --> 00:57:56.719 backwards right, That's usually how she pins her opponent. She 1112 00:57:56.840 --> 00:58:01.159 sat back so far that she actually fell over and 1113 00:58:01.199 --> 00:58:03.760 it looked like Oscar's shoulder in doing so. She may 1114 00:58:03.800 --> 00:58:05.960 have pulled Oscar's shoulder up off the mat. It was 1115 00:58:05.960 --> 00:58:08.079 hard to tell because we didn't get a camera angle 1116 00:58:08.119 --> 00:58:11.159 from that side where we could actually see Oscar's shoulder, 1117 00:58:11.199 --> 00:58:13.079 So I can't say for sure that that's what happened here, 1118 00:58:13.079 --> 00:58:17.800 but that's what it looked like. So yeah, even the 1119 00:58:17.840 --> 00:58:22.159 actual finish of the match kind of get botched up 1120 00:58:22.159 --> 00:58:23.840 a little bit there. I mean, it's one thing to 1121 00:58:24.599 --> 00:58:28.119 you know, botch a move or be unsure of yourself, 1122 00:58:28.159 --> 00:58:32.559 but to screw up the pin is not great. So 1123 00:58:32.599 --> 00:58:34.719 she was presented with the crown in the ring after 1124 00:58:34.840 --> 00:58:37.920 she was interviewed by Byron Saxton. She told people who 1125 00:58:37.960 --> 00:58:41.599 felt down, you gotta fight through it, fight through the booze, 1126 00:58:42.719 --> 00:58:45.639 show people who you are. She said, a storm is 1127 00:58:45.719 --> 00:58:52.880 coming at SummerSlam. This was a very flat match with 1128 00:58:52.960 --> 00:58:55.960 a very flat ending. It's very awkward ending. What was 1129 00:58:55.960 --> 00:58:58.039 bad about it is it felt like people weren't expecting 1130 00:58:58.079 --> 00:59:00.599 that to be the finish. She hit her finish, so 1131 00:59:01.239 --> 00:59:03.519 I don't know why people wouldn't have expected it, but 1132 00:59:03.559 --> 00:59:06.119 there was like no reaction. It was just that awkward 1133 00:59:06.199 --> 00:59:09.719 reaction like you've seen matches where the pin feels like 1134 00:59:09.760 --> 00:59:12.360 it comes out of nowhere and people like don't know 1135 00:59:12.360 --> 00:59:14.320 how to react to it. That's what this felt like. 1136 00:59:15.119 --> 00:59:17.239 Even though she had just hit her finishing move, people 1137 00:59:17.760 --> 00:59:19.719 they didn't want that, clearly, they didn't want that to 1138 00:59:19.760 --> 00:59:23.239 be the finish. So just everything about this just did 1139 00:59:23.280 --> 00:59:26.079 not click. Osca did what she could Jade. You know, 1140 00:59:26.119 --> 00:59:27.800 she had a few spots here and there, but she 1141 00:59:28.239 --> 00:59:30.920 thing with Jade, and I noticed it here and sometimes 1142 00:59:30.920 --> 00:59:33.880 she hides it. Well, it's not like every match Jade 1143 00:59:33.920 --> 00:59:37.360 Cargill has is a terrible match, but when it comes 1144 00:59:37.360 --> 00:59:40.880 to singles matches, she's still a novice at this right. 1145 00:59:40.920 --> 00:59:42.719 I mean, she's been doing it for a little bit now, 1146 00:59:42.760 --> 00:59:45.400 but it's not like she has all of this experience 1147 00:59:45.440 --> 00:59:48.119 where I'm expecting her to go out there and be, 1148 00:59:48.320 --> 00:59:52.760 you know, the top technical talent in the division or 1149 00:59:52.800 --> 00:59:57.760 anything like that. But I noticed to hear where she 1150 00:59:57.840 --> 01:00:01.719 looks very tentative, like she's thinking too hard about. 1151 01:00:01.440 --> 01:00:02.639 What she has to do next. 1152 01:00:04.000 --> 01:00:06.079 Just a vibe I get, you know, by watching her 1153 01:00:06.280 --> 01:00:09.400 very very telegraphed in that way, and Okay, what do 1154 01:00:09.400 --> 01:00:11.159 I have to do now or what position do I 1155 01:00:11.199 --> 01:00:13.559 have to be in? And it just makes some of 1156 01:00:13.599 --> 01:00:16.840 these matches very awkward. So I mean, Oscar has looked 1157 01:00:16.840 --> 01:00:18.000 good since she came back. 1158 01:00:18.079 --> 01:00:18.559 That's good. 1159 01:00:19.440 --> 01:00:22.159 She was out for thirteen months, right, she was out hurt, 1160 01:00:22.320 --> 01:00:24.480 and so far we've seen Oscar now in three matches 1161 01:00:24.519 --> 01:00:27.039 since she's come back, and she's looked good, you know, 1162 01:00:27.079 --> 01:00:29.760 in all of those matches. So that's good Naomi, though 1163 01:00:29.840 --> 01:00:31.880 Naomi did not. I thought Naomi was going to cash 1164 01:00:31.920 --> 01:00:33.119 in last night on SmackDown. 1165 01:00:33.119 --> 01:00:33.599 I really did. 1166 01:00:33.599 --> 01:00:34.920 I thought she was going to cash in at the 1167 01:00:35.039 --> 01:00:38.880 end of that last woman's Standing match. She tried to, 1168 01:00:39.079 --> 01:00:43.559 she teased, it didn't happen. Jade now is going to 1169 01:00:43.599 --> 01:00:48.119 SummerSlam to challenge for the WWE Women's Championship, which is 1170 01:00:48.159 --> 01:00:51.239 currently held by Tiffany Stratton, and I presume, I presume 1171 01:00:51.320 --> 01:00:54.079 nothing will change between now and then. It will probably 1172 01:00:54.079 --> 01:00:57.639 be Tiffany against Jade. If Naomi is going to cash 1173 01:00:57.679 --> 01:01:01.519 in or try to cash in, cashing in during Jade's match, 1174 01:01:02.239 --> 01:01:05.320 or cashing in on Jade after Jade wins the title. 1175 01:01:05.400 --> 01:01:09.480 If she wins the title, that seems like the most 1176 01:01:09.599 --> 01:01:13.760 likely destination here. There is a question though, of would 1177 01:01:13.760 --> 01:01:17.360 they put the title on Naomi before SummerSlam and do 1178 01:01:17.480 --> 01:01:21.039 the match at SummerSlam, Naomi defending against Jade. Jade has 1179 01:01:21.079 --> 01:01:23.920 to beat Naomi to win the championship, which she already 1180 01:01:23.920 --> 01:01:26.880 did at WrestleMania she beat Naomi. The idea that I 1181 01:01:26.960 --> 01:01:33.280 floated a couple weeks ago was why not have Naomi 1182 01:01:33.360 --> 01:01:38.039 cash in before SummerSlam, right like last night, win the championship, 1183 01:01:38.079 --> 01:01:40.480 Jade wins Queen of the Ring. We get Naomi against Jade, 1184 01:01:40.840 --> 01:01:43.360 and in that match, Bianca bell Air returns and Beyonca 1185 01:01:43.400 --> 01:01:46.840 bell Air goes heel. That to me would be kind 1186 01:01:46.840 --> 01:01:49.280 of interesting. I would just love to see a Bianca 1187 01:01:49.280 --> 01:01:52.719 Belair heel turn. I don't know if they're actually going 1188 01:01:52.719 --> 01:01:55.079 to do it or not, but she's been a babyface 1189 01:01:55.119 --> 01:01:56.960 for so long. I think she would kill it as 1190 01:01:57.000 --> 01:02:01.480 a heel, and then you can re you know, her 1191 01:02:01.519 --> 01:02:04.039 and Naomi, and I don't know if they would reveal 1192 01:02:04.079 --> 01:02:04.840 that she was in on. 1193 01:02:04.840 --> 01:02:06.199 It all along with the attack. 1194 01:02:06.320 --> 01:02:08.840 I don't think you need to do that, but that 1195 01:02:09.000 --> 01:02:12.360 still is an idea that intrigues me, and you could 1196 01:02:12.360 --> 01:02:14.840 still do it, but Naomi would have to cash in 1197 01:02:15.280 --> 01:02:17.199 sometime before SummerSlam. 1198 01:02:18.199 --> 01:02:18.679 Evolution. 1199 01:02:19.800 --> 01:02:21.639 We have an all women's pay per view coming up 1200 01:02:21.719 --> 01:02:24.000 on July thirteenth. I don't know what Tiffany Stratton is 1201 01:02:24.000 --> 01:02:26.079 going to be doing on that show. We may get 1202 01:02:26.079 --> 01:02:29.320 a money in the bank cash in at Evolution, So 1203 01:02:29.440 --> 01:02:32.320 don't count out the possibility that Naomi may not be 1204 01:02:32.440 --> 01:02:35.360 the one defending against Jade at SummerSlam. If she is, 1205 01:02:35.440 --> 01:02:40.199 I think that increases the chances of a Bianchi heeltern exponentially. 1206 01:02:41.199 --> 01:02:42.880 I do. I don't think. 1207 01:02:42.800 --> 01:02:45.639 Jade Cargill is walking out of SummerSlam as the champion. 1208 01:02:45.719 --> 01:02:48.880 She may win the title at SummerSlam, but she ain't 1209 01:02:48.960 --> 01:02:53.239 leaving MetLife Stadium with that belt, whether she beats Tiffany 1210 01:02:53.360 --> 01:02:59.000 or not. Let's talk about this main event. It was 1211 01:02:59.079 --> 01:03:03.360 for the w UWE Undisputed Championship. I don't know what's 1212 01:03:03.400 --> 01:03:07.239 so undisputed about it, because again, we have two world titles. 1213 01:03:07.480 --> 01:03:09.039 I still think it's kind of funny they call it 1214 01:03:09.079 --> 01:03:13.079 the undisputed WWE Championship, but whatever, that's what they call it. 1215 01:03:13.159 --> 01:03:14.960 And that's what was on the line here and very 1216 01:03:15.119 --> 01:03:17.360 likely here the last time that we are ever going 1217 01:03:17.440 --> 01:03:19.000 to see these two men in the ring together one 1218 01:03:19.039 --> 01:03:24.239 on one. It was John Cena defending his title against cmpunk, 1219 01:03:25.159 --> 01:03:27.920 first time that they have worked a singles match together 1220 01:03:28.400 --> 01:03:31.440 in twelve years, so the same thing as Cody and Randy. 1221 01:03:32.519 --> 01:03:35.119 That was the last time before this show that Cody 1222 01:03:35.159 --> 01:03:40.239 and Randy had worked the match together. We got basic 1223 01:03:40.360 --> 01:03:46.760 punkinomics on SmackDown last night. I talked extensively about this 1224 01:03:46.800 --> 01:03:51.320 segment during the SmackDown review and what I thought about 1225 01:03:51.320 --> 01:03:55.760 it and the secondhand embarrassment that I had watching him 1226 01:03:55.800 --> 01:03:58.679 come out there dressed up, and maybe that was the intent. 1227 01:03:58.840 --> 01:03:59.360 I don't know. 1228 01:04:00.719 --> 01:04:05.239 It was just it was it was entertaining, but it 1229 01:04:05.280 --> 01:04:09.119 was entertaining in a so bad, it's good way. That 1230 01:04:09.280 --> 01:04:12.159 was my take on the entire segment. Of course, I 1231 01:04:12.199 --> 01:04:13.920 think that this guy here looks a lot better. 1232 01:04:13.960 --> 01:04:15.760 Look at this. 1233 01:04:15.760 --> 01:04:19.480 This is basic solo nomics that you see see a 1234 01:04:19.519 --> 01:04:23.239 little Mets logan there. I like this guy a lot better, 1235 01:04:24.199 --> 01:04:28.000 and he is drug free. We got a thunderous reaction 1236 01:04:28.719 --> 01:04:31.400 for CM Punk's entrance when he came out to the ring. 1237 01:04:32.159 --> 01:04:35.400 He got into the ring, he sat cross legged in 1238 01:04:35.480 --> 01:04:37.119 the center of the ring like he did it Money 1239 01:04:37.119 --> 01:04:40.800 in the Bank in twenty eleven, and the building was 1240 01:04:40.960 --> 01:04:44.480 very loud, and then they hit John Cena's music and 1241 01:04:44.519 --> 01:04:48.719 they exploded again. They sang John Cena sucks on his 1242 01:04:48.760 --> 01:04:52.559 way to the ring. We got the big match intros 1243 01:04:54.119 --> 01:04:57.920 from Mark Nash. He introduced Punk, then he introduced the champion. 1244 01:04:59.000 --> 01:05:02.639 The bell rang, the fireflies were out with their phones. 1245 01:05:03.039 --> 01:05:05.719 They were making noise, they were flashing their phones around. 1246 01:05:06.000 --> 01:05:07.679 It did have a big fight feel to it. We 1247 01:05:07.719 --> 01:05:09.719 talked about like a big main event, big fight feel. 1248 01:05:09.800 --> 01:05:13.320 It did have that. At the beginning here Punk lifted 1249 01:05:13.360 --> 01:05:16.519 him up for a GTS. Sena slipped out, rolled to 1250 01:05:16.559 --> 01:05:19.599 the floor a little too close for comfort for him. 1251 01:05:19.960 --> 01:05:22.000 He got back in the ring. Punk went for something. 1252 01:05:22.119 --> 01:05:23.880 I have no idea what he was trying to do. 1253 01:05:24.480 --> 01:05:26.320 I thought maybe it was like an octopus that he 1254 01:05:26.400 --> 01:05:29.079 was going for. Sena ended up with Punk on his 1255 01:05:29.119 --> 01:05:32.320 shoulders for an attitude adjustment. He kind of maneuvered him 1256 01:05:32.320 --> 01:05:36.440 onto his shoulders forward awkwardly, Punk slipped out, close lined 1257 01:05:36.480 --> 01:05:39.239 him down. Punk tried for the move again, and at 1258 01:05:39.239 --> 01:05:41.800 this point Wade Barrett said that it looked like he 1259 01:05:41.840 --> 01:05:45.119 was taking a page out of aj Lee's playbook, And 1260 01:05:45.159 --> 01:05:49.840 I said, I see, he certainly wasn't applying the hold 1261 01:05:49.880 --> 01:05:52.639 as well as aj Lee used to do it, but 1262 01:05:53.000 --> 01:05:54.800 I guess that is what he was going for. 1263 01:05:55.159 --> 01:05:56.119 At least he tried. 1264 01:05:56.360 --> 01:05:59.159 I thought of the Bart Simpson cake meme. At least 1265 01:05:59.239 --> 01:06:00.800 you tried. He tried. 1266 01:06:00.840 --> 01:06:02.159 He didn't do a very good job with it, but 1267 01:06:02.199 --> 01:06:02.559 he tried. 1268 01:06:03.400 --> 01:06:06.079 Sina hit the shoulder tackles, Punk got up and took 1269 01:06:06.079 --> 01:06:09.639 a swing. Sena ducked it, scooped him up, slammed him down. 1270 01:06:10.320 --> 01:06:14.880 Five knuckle shuffle connects. Here comes the attitude adjustment. Punk 1271 01:06:14.920 --> 01:06:19.039 slips out and he connects with a heel kick, then 1272 01:06:19.079 --> 01:06:22.719 a neck breaker by CM Punk, followed by the running 1273 01:06:22.760 --> 01:06:25.119 knee in the corner, and then he heads up top 1274 01:06:25.239 --> 01:06:29.920 for the not so randy savage elbow. He gives the 1275 01:06:29.960 --> 01:06:33.239 GTS signal he hoists, Sena up for it. Sina, though, 1276 01:06:33.280 --> 01:06:36.800 grabs his leg on the way down, punks that is, 1277 01:06:37.519 --> 01:06:41.000 and he locks in the STF. Punk got out of it. 1278 01:06:41.280 --> 01:06:44.159 Sina got him up though, hits an attitude adjustment only 1279 01:06:44.199 --> 01:06:48.000 for a two count, so we got another attitude adjustment 1280 01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:50.920 attempt a short time later, but Punk foiled it, drops 1281 01:06:50.960 --> 01:06:54.119 him with a DDT and then Punk locks on an 1282 01:06:54.159 --> 01:06:57.280 STF and Sina grabs the bottom rope for the break. 1283 01:06:57.599 --> 01:07:00.599 Sena stuffed a running bulldog attempt and then pled Punk 1284 01:07:00.679 --> 01:07:02.800 right on the ri odd season logo in the center 1285 01:07:02.840 --> 01:07:03.239 of the ring. 1286 01:07:03.880 --> 01:07:05.440 I don't know, just felt kind of appropriate. 1287 01:07:05.440 --> 01:07:10.760 Here we got another attitude adjustment and another kickout by Cmpunk. 1288 01:07:11.280 --> 01:07:13.599 Seena places Punk on the top rope. At this point, 1289 01:07:13.639 --> 01:07:16.360 he climbs up with him and he's going to try 1290 01:07:16.400 --> 01:07:19.760 for a super AA from the middle rope. Punk fights 1291 01:07:19.840 --> 01:07:23.840 him off, though. Punk then flies off the top with 1292 01:07:23.960 --> 01:07:28.000 a crossbody and John Cena rolls through with him, just 1293 01:07:28.079 --> 01:07:30.280 like in their Money in the Bank match. I remember 1294 01:07:30.360 --> 01:07:33.280 all of the key spots. I love that match. The 1295 01:07:33.320 --> 01:07:35.440 twenty eleven Money in the Bank match is one of 1296 01:07:35.440 --> 01:07:38.440 the best matches in WWE history. I mean just the 1297 01:07:38.519 --> 01:07:43.280 atmosphere for just everything about that match clicked. Everything about 1298 01:07:43.280 --> 01:07:46.440 that match was just magic. And so when they were 1299 01:07:46.480 --> 01:07:48.679 doing certain things, whether it was him sitting in the 1300 01:07:48.760 --> 01:07:51.360 ring cross legged looking at the aisle waiting for seeing 1301 01:07:51.400 --> 01:07:53.800 his music to hit right, that was I'm sure a 1302 01:07:53.840 --> 01:07:56.519 callback to twenty eleven, just the way they shot that. 1303 01:07:57.679 --> 01:08:00.280 Even this move here where he came off the hot 1304 01:08:00.280 --> 01:08:03.599 for the crossbody. Sna rolled through just like they did 1305 01:08:03.599 --> 01:08:07.440 in that match, but Sina muscles him up onto his 1306 01:08:07.519 --> 01:08:11.119 shoulders for another attitude adjustment and this was the third 1307 01:08:11.199 --> 01:08:15.440 one of the match. Another pinfall attempt, Punk kicks out. 1308 01:08:15.920 --> 01:08:19.079 So now Sena locks his sights on the WWE Championship 1309 01:08:19.119 --> 01:08:22.920 outside because he's done three attitude adjustments. He has thrown 1310 01:08:23.000 --> 01:08:26.560 everything that he can here at this man, nothing is working, 1311 01:08:27.159 --> 01:08:29.439 and so he looks out to the title, which is 1312 01:08:29.439 --> 01:08:32.840 sitting on the podium outside. So he goes outside and 1313 01:08:32.880 --> 01:08:35.319 he retrieves the title. He brings it into the ring 1314 01:08:35.399 --> 01:08:37.560 with him and he's gonna blast Punk with it. And 1315 01:08:37.600 --> 01:08:40.000 we've seen him do this in multiple matches here since 1316 01:08:40.039 --> 01:08:45.279 he won a WrestleMania. Now he's standing there and the referee, 1317 01:08:45.319 --> 01:08:48.399 of course, is warning him that you'll be disqualified, and 1318 01:08:48.439 --> 01:08:50.560 he doesn't give a fuck because he'll still be the champion. 1319 01:08:51.279 --> 01:08:53.760 So he's warning him, don't do it, you'll be dcut. 1320 01:08:53.880 --> 01:08:56.000 And the fans also don't want him to do it either, 1321 01:08:56.399 --> 01:08:58.439 and Sena has a look on his face like he 1322 01:08:58.520 --> 01:09:04.279 is contemplating things, and John Cena chooses to throw the 1323 01:09:04.359 --> 01:09:07.880 championship out of the ring. He thinks better of it, 1324 01:09:07.920 --> 01:09:11.960 he doesn't do it. He throws the title away, so 1325 01:09:12.079 --> 01:09:14.439 he picks Punk up for an AA. Punk slips out 1326 01:09:14.560 --> 01:09:17.640 and delivers a GTS and he covers him, he gets one, 1327 01:09:17.720 --> 01:09:22.159 he gets two, Sena kicks out, So Sena having a 1328 01:09:22.199 --> 01:09:26.520 crisis of conscience here seeing another seed planted. And there 1329 01:09:26.560 --> 01:09:28.760 was something that he did at backlash, as I recall 1330 01:09:28.800 --> 01:09:30.760 as well, that was kind of I think it was 1331 01:09:30.800 --> 01:09:33.520 after the match was over with Orton, where he had 1332 01:09:33.560 --> 01:09:35.319 a look on his face like maybe he was sort 1333 01:09:35.319 --> 01:09:36.920 of contemplating what he had done. 1334 01:09:38.000 --> 01:09:39.399 These are little hints. 1335 01:09:39.119 --> 01:09:42.479 These are little easter eggs that are being dropped for 1336 01:09:42.600 --> 01:09:45.359 what is eventually going to be coming, for that inevitable 1337 01:09:45.399 --> 01:09:48.279 baby face turn. So we got the Ya Boose spot. 1338 01:09:48.319 --> 01:09:51.399 They traded shots back and forth. Shoulder tackle by Sena. 1339 01:09:51.800 --> 01:09:54.960 He goes for a second shoulder tackle, Punk avoids it 1340 01:09:55.119 --> 01:10:00.720 and instead Sena accidentally collides with referee Dan Engler shoulder 1341 01:10:00.760 --> 01:10:03.680 tackles him. Angler ends up on the floor outside the ring. 1342 01:10:04.640 --> 01:10:07.720 So Punk delivers at GTS. He has seen it covered, 1343 01:10:07.720 --> 01:10:10.960 he's got the visual pin. There's no referee to count. 1344 01:10:11.920 --> 01:10:13.960 So Punk gets up and he goes over to the 1345 01:10:14.039 --> 01:10:18.239 ropes and he looks outside and he sees Dan Engler 1346 01:10:18.279 --> 01:10:23.239 out there, all laid out, unconscious. So he waves for 1347 01:10:23.359 --> 01:10:25.840 another referee to come on down, but he doesn't get 1348 01:10:25.880 --> 01:10:31.600 another referee. Instead, he gets seth Rollin's music and outwalks 1349 01:10:31.640 --> 01:10:35.520 mister Money in the bank with Paul Haman, bron Breaker 1350 01:10:36.119 --> 01:10:39.720 and Bronson Reed, and they take their sweet time. It's 1351 01:10:39.760 --> 01:10:41.920 not like he's got a referee with him. He's running 1352 01:10:41.960 --> 01:10:44.680 down to the ring. There's no referee with them, and 1353 01:10:44.720 --> 01:10:49.159 they take their time walking down to the ring. Rollin 1354 01:10:49.279 --> 01:10:54.439 slowly takes his glasses off, takes his jacket off. Hayman 1355 01:10:54.520 --> 01:10:57.439 hands him the briefcase. Punk is in the ring watching 1356 01:10:57.479 --> 01:11:00.359 all this, and he's squaring up for a fight. Rollin 1357 01:11:00.479 --> 01:11:06.159 summons Breaker and Read into the ring, and Punk clotheslines 1358 01:11:06.199 --> 01:11:09.159 bron Breaker out to the floor. He sidesteps a charging 1359 01:11:09.159 --> 01:11:11.760 Bronson Reed, who goes flying through the ropes to the floor. 1360 01:11:12.279 --> 01:11:15.479 Punk does a slingshot dive out of the ring. He 1361 01:11:15.600 --> 01:11:17.479 was trying to dive out onto both of them. He 1362 01:11:17.520 --> 01:11:22.000 overshot the dive. He overshot the dive, almost killed himself, 1363 01:11:23.159 --> 01:11:25.319 but he was okay. And then the two of them 1364 01:11:25.359 --> 01:11:28.159 grab Punk and the idea was, ok he's gonna jump up. 1365 01:11:28.159 --> 01:11:29.800 We're gonna pick him up for a choke slamb put 1366 01:11:29.840 --> 01:11:32.199 him through the table. They didn't get their timing right 1367 01:11:32.520 --> 01:11:34.880 when they were trying to get him up, Punk I 1368 01:11:34.880 --> 01:11:37.439 think went to go jump too soon, so they basically 1369 01:11:37.479 --> 01:11:39.119 had to kind of muscle him up a little. 1370 01:11:38.960 --> 01:11:39.920 Bit, and he didn't. 1371 01:11:39.960 --> 01:11:42.800 He barely even went up, and they chokes lamming through 1372 01:11:42.840 --> 01:11:46.640 the table. Anyway, in the ring rollin summons a referee. 1373 01:11:46.720 --> 01:11:50.359 Here comes Charles Robinson and as I'm watching him run 1374 01:11:50.439 --> 01:11:52.640 down to the ring, he's sprinting down to the ring. 1375 01:11:52.720 --> 01:11:56.119 I am reminded of him sprinting down that long aisle 1376 01:11:57.000 --> 01:12:00.680 at WrestleMania twenty four during the main event between Edge 1377 01:12:00.680 --> 01:12:02.800 and the Undertaker. And that was in two thousand and eight. 1378 01:12:02.840 --> 01:12:06.399 That was almost twenty years ago. And this man is 1379 01:12:06.439 --> 01:12:08.840 still out there. Man, he's still out there doing the things, 1380 01:12:08.920 --> 01:12:11.560 still charging down, sprinting down to the ring. Man, God 1381 01:12:11.600 --> 01:12:14.640 blessed little Nature. Everything I ever hear about that guy. 1382 01:12:14.680 --> 01:12:18.279 One of the nicest guys in all of wrestling. You 1383 01:12:18.319 --> 01:12:20.119 would never know he's as old as he is. You 1384 01:12:20.159 --> 01:12:23.079 know he's getting up there. But here he is again 1385 01:12:24.039 --> 01:12:27.239 in this main event, in this title match, at a 1386 01:12:27.279 --> 01:12:30.920 critical moment, sprinting down to the ring. He doesn't even 1387 01:12:30.960 --> 01:12:34.359 make it inside. When he gets down to ringside. John Cena. 1388 01:12:34.439 --> 01:12:39.479 He sideswipes him and knocks him to the ground. Scena 1389 01:12:39.520 --> 01:12:42.600 gets and the fans popped when they realize that Sena 1390 01:12:42.640 --> 01:12:46.840 has just foiled this cash in attempt. Seena gets into 1391 01:12:46.880 --> 01:12:49.800 the ring and he confronts Rollins. Rollins tries to hit 1392 01:12:49.840 --> 01:12:53.680 him with the briefcase. Sena ducts it delivers an attitude adjustment. 1393 01:12:54.439 --> 01:12:57.960 So now here comes Bron Breaker and Bronson Reid. They 1394 01:12:57.960 --> 01:13:02.479 get into the ring. They attacked John Sena. Then we 1395 01:13:02.520 --> 01:13:04.720 hear that this is where things got a little weird 1396 01:13:05.960 --> 01:13:08.880 because we hear Penta's music. The last thing I was 1397 01:13:08.920 --> 01:13:11.560 expecting to hear other than Joe Hendry's music here in 1398 01:13:11.600 --> 01:13:15.640 Saudi Arabia. I hear Penta's music. I'm like fucking Pana. 1399 01:13:16.680 --> 01:13:19.199 And so out comes Penta. He doesn't run down to 1400 01:13:19.239 --> 01:13:21.039 the ring or anything. They show Bron Breaker in the 1401 01:13:21.119 --> 01:13:23.199 ring and Bron's like, yeah, fuck this. He gets out 1402 01:13:23.199 --> 01:13:26.319 of the ring and he goes to catch up with 1403 01:13:26.399 --> 01:13:29.039 Penta on the ramp. He goes after him. Penta delivers 1404 01:13:29.039 --> 01:13:31.439 some kicks. Breaker though, ends up picking him up and 1405 01:13:31.479 --> 01:13:34.520 he dumps him down on the ramp. Now we hear 1406 01:13:34.720 --> 01:13:38.439 Sammy z Ain's music. Sammy runs out to Pentas eight. 1407 01:13:38.439 --> 01:13:42.039 He fights off Breaker and they end up off the ramp, 1408 01:13:42.199 --> 01:13:43.880 and now they're kind of they're on the floor, but 1409 01:13:43.960 --> 01:13:47.039 on the side of the stage. They haven't gone backstage, 1410 01:13:47.039 --> 01:13:50.319 but they've worked their way to the side of the 1411 01:13:50.319 --> 01:13:54.039 stage on the floor. And then we have a camera there. 1412 01:13:54.079 --> 01:13:56.720 We look up and we see Penta and you can 1413 01:13:56.760 --> 01:13:58.800 see he's waiting for his moment, right, and he gets 1414 01:13:58.880 --> 01:14:02.279 their attention, and Penta does a big dive off the ramp, 1415 01:14:02.560 --> 01:14:06.439 off the stage onto both men, so all three. 1416 01:14:06.319 --> 01:14:06.920 Of them are down. 1417 01:14:07.119 --> 01:14:08.960 Back in the ring, Bronson Reid is going up for 1418 01:14:09.000 --> 01:14:13.399 a tsunami to John Cena. Punk though got back up 1419 01:14:13.439 --> 01:14:15.359 on the apron. He shoved Reid off the top rope. 1420 01:14:16.479 --> 01:14:21.079 Sena gets Bronson Reid up for an attitude adjustment. And 1421 01:14:21.159 --> 01:14:24.359 so he may be a lot older than he used 1422 01:14:24.359 --> 01:14:26.840 to be when he was picking guys like this up right, 1423 01:14:27.000 --> 01:14:30.560 think of those WrestleMania matches with you know, Big Show, 1424 01:14:30.640 --> 01:14:32.720 and think of all the guys he's picked up. 1425 01:14:32.600 --> 01:14:34.560 On his shoulders over the years. 1426 01:14:35.680 --> 01:14:37.880 And he could still do it, you know, Bronson Reid. 1427 01:14:38.000 --> 01:14:40.560 I will say Bronton Reid, though he slimmed down when 1428 01:14:40.560 --> 01:14:43.159 he came back from the injury. He's definitely a little 1429 01:14:43.159 --> 01:14:46.560 bit smaller. I mean he looks as far as the 1430 01:14:47.119 --> 01:14:49.279 shape that he's in, right, he's in great shape, but 1431 01:14:49.359 --> 01:14:51.560 he's definitely a little slimmer than he used to be, 1432 01:14:51.600 --> 01:14:54.560 but still a very big man. And Sina picks him 1433 01:14:54.640 --> 01:14:58.119 up on his shoulders and he delivers an attitude adjustment. 1434 01:14:58.439 --> 01:15:02.159 Reid rolls out to the floor. And so now we're 1435 01:15:02.199 --> 01:15:06.279 back to Sena and Punk. We're back to one on 1436 01:15:06.279 --> 01:15:10.079 one between these two and they're staring each other down 1437 01:15:10.119 --> 01:15:14.079 and the crowd is is, you know, loud and starting 1438 01:15:14.079 --> 01:15:18.159 an olaola chant. Punk extends his hand for a handshake, 1439 01:15:18.960 --> 01:15:22.640 Sena accepts it and the two of them embrace, and 1440 01:15:22.680 --> 01:15:25.920 then the camera zooms in on John Cena's face and 1441 01:15:25.960 --> 01:15:28.319 it's a very similar look on his face to the 1442 01:15:28.319 --> 01:15:31.319 one that he flashed when he hugged Cody at the 1443 01:15:31.359 --> 01:15:36.359 elimination chamber and the uh what does Punk call him? 1444 01:15:36.399 --> 01:15:39.479 The bald fraud gave the cutthroat sign and we all 1445 01:15:39.520 --> 01:15:42.199 know what came next. So sure enough, he tried the 1446 01:15:42.199 --> 01:15:43.960 same thing here to see m Punk went for a 1447 01:15:44.000 --> 01:15:47.880 dick kick. Punk was ready for it, blocked it. Here 1448 01:15:47.920 --> 01:15:51.520 comes to go to sleep, Sina slips out, Rollins is 1449 01:15:51.560 --> 01:15:54.319 back in. He's got the briefcase. He blasts CM Punk 1450 01:15:54.359 --> 01:15:56.520 in the head with the money in the bank briefcase. 1451 01:15:56.960 --> 01:16:00.239 Then he delivers a stomp to seem Punk and then 1452 01:16:00.279 --> 01:16:02.840 Sina grabs Rollins and throws him out of the ring 1453 01:16:04.079 --> 01:16:08.359 and cover CM Punk Magically. Referee Dan Engler is back 1454 01:16:08.399 --> 01:16:13.720 at exactly the right moment, how fortunate for John Cena 1455 01:16:13.880 --> 01:16:17.600 and Dan Engler counts the one, two three, and John 1456 01:16:17.680 --> 01:16:20.920 Cena pins Cmpunk just as he did the last time 1457 01:16:20.960 --> 01:16:23.319 they were in the ring together in twenty thirteen. That 1458 01:16:23.439 --> 01:16:25.199 was when John Cena earned the right to meet the 1459 01:16:25.279 --> 01:16:28.920 Rock again at WrestleMania and won the WWE Championship back. 1460 01:16:29.800 --> 01:16:34.640 John Cena retains the title here in a very very 1461 01:16:35.520 --> 01:16:40.720 overbooked win in this main event. Let me tell you what, 1462 01:16:40.760 --> 01:16:43.680 I was glad that we did not get here. I 1463 01:16:43.840 --> 01:16:47.600 was very happy that there was no Travis Scott. I 1464 01:16:47.680 --> 01:16:50.079 still feel like we're gonna he's gonna pop up or 1465 01:16:50.119 --> 01:16:52.000 they're gonna do you know, we've heard about like a 1466 01:16:52.039 --> 01:16:55.960 celebrity tag match. You know, like I'm still like fearing 1467 01:16:56.000 --> 01:16:57.920 for my life here that there's still we're not done 1468 01:16:57.960 --> 01:16:59.880 with this Travis Scott thing. I'm pretty sure I have 1469 01:17:00.079 --> 01:17:04.680 PTSD post traumatic Scott syndrome. I just feel like at 1470 01:17:04.720 --> 01:17:07.279 any moment, I'm gonna hear fiend and he's gonna come out. 1471 01:17:07.279 --> 01:17:10.960 So thankfully we didn't get Travis Scott here. We also 1472 01:17:11.000 --> 01:17:13.800 didn't get a dick kick, No kick to the dick 1473 01:17:14.000 --> 01:17:16.159 to end this match. We've seen that a few times 1474 01:17:16.319 --> 01:17:18.840 with John Cena as well. That would have been super lame. 1475 01:17:19.560 --> 01:17:22.920 So that's good. But they felt the need to overbook 1476 01:17:22.960 --> 01:17:26.960 this because they wanted to protect Cmpunk. They wanted to 1477 01:17:26.960 --> 01:17:30.680 protect Cmpunk and Cmpunk still has a blood feud, still 1478 01:17:30.680 --> 01:17:33.399 has a story going with Seth Rollins. So how can 1479 01:17:33.439 --> 01:17:35.520 we protect Punk in a way where he doesn't have 1480 01:17:35.560 --> 01:17:38.359 to take a direct loss, but it'll throw some more 1481 01:17:38.399 --> 01:17:41.319 gasoline on the fire between him and Seth Rollins. Well, 1482 01:17:41.359 --> 01:17:44.479 we'll have Seth try to cash in and it goes 1483 01:17:44.600 --> 01:17:47.239 sideways and in the end it ends up screwing Cmpunk 1484 01:17:47.239 --> 01:17:52.039 out of the championship. That's what they did here. So 1485 01:17:53.000 --> 01:17:57.520 they overbooked it, Yes they did. There are times where 1486 01:17:58.000 --> 01:18:01.239 you know you will have a match that is overbooked 1487 01:18:01.279 --> 01:18:04.520 and it makes sense. I mentioned WrestleMania last year, right, 1488 01:18:04.520 --> 01:18:05.600 the Avengers. 1489 01:18:05.199 --> 01:18:06.359 Endgame of WWE. 1490 01:18:07.079 --> 01:18:09.239 I knew going into that WrestleMania, this is gonna be 1491 01:18:09.279 --> 01:18:12.479 an overbook fucking main event, right, But it was fun 1492 01:18:12.520 --> 01:18:15.239 as all hell. I knew it going in. It was 1493 01:18:15.279 --> 01:18:17.159 exactly what I expected it to be, and it was 1494 01:18:17.199 --> 01:18:20.439 a lot of fun. The main event in a few 1495 01:18:20.479 --> 01:18:23.479 weeks at all in if it goes the way that 1496 01:18:23.520 --> 01:18:26.199 I think it's gonna go, we'll probably also be an 1497 01:18:26.279 --> 01:18:29.079 overbooked main event. And I don't know who's gonna come 1498 01:18:29.079 --> 01:18:30.560 out on the winning end there. I mean, I know 1499 01:18:30.600 --> 01:18:32.680 who I want to come in out on the winning end. 1500 01:18:33.119 --> 01:18:35.479 That will be overbooked too, But if it's done the 1501 01:18:35.520 --> 01:18:38.520 right way, that could be a lot of fun as well. 1502 01:18:38.680 --> 01:18:41.840 So there is overbooking that makes sense. One thing about 1503 01:18:41.880 --> 01:18:44.560 what they did here, you can't say it didn't make sense, right. 1504 01:18:44.720 --> 01:18:47.159 Seth Rollins wanted to cash in his money in the bank, right, 1505 01:18:47.199 --> 01:18:49.079 You can cash in on whatever championship you want. It 1506 01:18:49.079 --> 01:18:51.359 could be the world title, it could be the WWE title. 1507 01:18:51.760 --> 01:18:55.359 He was electing to go after the WWE title and 1508 01:18:55.399 --> 01:18:57.760 at the same time do it in a way that 1509 01:18:57.920 --> 01:19:02.840 screwed his most hated rival out of winning the championships 1510 01:19:02.880 --> 01:19:05.800 like killing two birds with one stone, right, that makes sense. 1511 01:19:06.640 --> 01:19:10.840 Penta coming out weird, but Penta has had his issues 1512 01:19:10.880 --> 01:19:14.560 recently with Seth's group. Sammy's Ain has had his issues 1513 01:19:14.560 --> 01:19:17.720 with Seth Rollins and his crew, and they realized that 1514 01:19:17.760 --> 01:19:19.520 Punk is about to get screwed here, so they take 1515 01:19:19.560 --> 01:19:21.279 it upon themselves to come out to try to do 1516 01:19:21.319 --> 01:19:22.920 something about it, to try to at least make it 1517 01:19:22.920 --> 01:19:24.079 a level playing field. 1518 01:19:24.279 --> 01:19:25.760 You can't say that it doesn't make sense. 1519 01:19:25.800 --> 01:19:27.359 You could say that you think it's stupid and you 1520 01:19:27.359 --> 01:19:30.079 would rather not see them do it, but at least 1521 01:19:30.119 --> 01:19:32.319 it made sense, like the people who came out and 1522 01:19:32.359 --> 01:19:34.600 why they were coming out, right. We had this on 1523 01:19:34.680 --> 01:19:37.760 RAW a few weeks ago. We had this on RAW 1524 01:19:37.760 --> 01:19:39.479 a few weeks ago when we had pent him, we 1525 01:19:39.560 --> 01:19:43.000 had La Knight right, he came out. I forgot what 1526 01:19:43.039 --> 01:19:46.039 the match was. 1527 01:19:45.880 --> 01:19:47.399 It wasn't jay Uso and gunther Man. 1528 01:19:47.520 --> 01:19:50.760 I can't remember what the match was, but it made sense, 1529 01:19:52.039 --> 01:19:54.560 So I get why they did what they did. I 1530 01:19:54.640 --> 01:19:57.159 get them wanting to protect Punk and not wanting, you know, 1531 01:19:57.279 --> 01:19:58.680 John Cena to just kick him in. 1532 01:19:58.600 --> 01:19:59.840 The dick and pin him in the middle of the 1533 01:20:00.279 --> 01:20:00.600 like that. 1534 01:20:00.720 --> 01:20:05.000 Like I understand all that, But now I'm like, man, 1535 01:20:05.159 --> 01:20:07.039 I would be lying if I told you I wasn't 1536 01:20:07.039 --> 01:20:09.840 at least a little bit disappointed that in what is 1537 01:20:09.880 --> 01:20:12.039 going to likely be it for John c and c 1538 01:20:12.159 --> 01:20:16.039 I'm punk we had this whole overbook mess here, you know, 1539 01:20:16.119 --> 01:20:19.039 at the end of this match. But I thought what 1540 01:20:19.039 --> 01:20:23.520 we got from punkin Sena was good outside of everything 1541 01:20:23.520 --> 01:20:25.640 else that I just talked about, I thought it was good. 1542 01:20:25.800 --> 01:20:28.199 It was not at the level of their past matches. 1543 01:20:29.479 --> 01:20:32.600 They're both a lot older, They're not the same performer 1544 01:20:32.680 --> 01:20:34.920 they were in twenty eleven or twenty thirteen. I get 1545 01:20:34.960 --> 01:20:38.039 that John Cena is very limited in what he can do. 1546 01:20:39.159 --> 01:20:43.479 What we got here was attitude adjustment, go to sleep, 1547 01:20:43.640 --> 01:20:47.359 attitude adjustment, go to sleep. Attitude adjustment, go to sleep, 1548 01:20:48.399 --> 01:20:52.439 attitude adjustment, go to sleep. There is a point in 1549 01:20:52.520 --> 01:20:55.520 some of these matches where you just kind of hit 1550 01:20:55.560 --> 01:21:01.239 that moment it's likeugh, enough already, and we did hit 1551 01:21:01.279 --> 01:21:03.640 that moment at one point during this match. For me, 1552 01:21:04.560 --> 01:21:08.039 it was just like an overreliance on that sort of thing, 1553 01:21:08.640 --> 01:21:10.720 you know, to try to cover for the fact that 1554 01:21:11.000 --> 01:21:13.079 you know they're they're limited, I guess in what they 1555 01:21:13.159 --> 01:21:16.880 can do so that aspect of it was not great, 1556 01:21:16.920 --> 01:21:18.960 but I thought the actual match. 1557 01:21:18.760 --> 01:21:21.399 Between them was it was good. It was good. 1558 01:21:22.359 --> 01:21:26.920 It was not you know, the magic necessarily that they 1559 01:21:26.960 --> 01:21:29.000 had once upon a time. But there is still a 1560 01:21:29.039 --> 01:21:31.560 chemistry there between the two of them that isn't going 1561 01:21:31.640 --> 01:21:33.920 to be there with John Cena and a lot of 1562 01:21:33.960 --> 01:21:36.439 other people. I'll tell you two people who didn't seem 1563 01:21:36.479 --> 01:21:38.920 to have it at wrestle Many this year, Cody Rhoades 1564 01:21:38.960 --> 01:21:39.760 in John Cena. 1565 01:21:40.279 --> 01:21:41.319 And now that we know that we're. 1566 01:21:41.239 --> 01:21:43.640 Getting Cody and Sena again at SummerSlam, I can only 1567 01:21:43.720 --> 01:21:45.920 hope that they go in there and have a match 1568 01:21:46.079 --> 01:21:48.960 that blows what they did in April out of the water, 1569 01:21:49.079 --> 01:21:52.399 because I don't think I saw anybody nobody whose opinion 1570 01:21:52.439 --> 01:21:54.680 I take seriously anyway, But even the people I heard 1571 01:21:54.760 --> 01:21:56.760 from here when we did the review that night, like 1572 01:21:57.800 --> 01:22:01.239 nobody liked that match, right. It was not a good match. 1573 01:22:01.720 --> 01:22:04.720 It was not a fun match, It was not really entertaining. 1574 01:22:05.199 --> 01:22:07.560 It was a dud. And so we've had so many 1575 01:22:07.600 --> 01:22:10.600 matches since that night. Two WrestleMania main event this year. 1576 01:22:10.880 --> 01:22:13.479 You could look at Backlash, you could look at what 1577 01:22:13.520 --> 01:22:16.840 we had here, you could look at this match. You 1578 01:22:16.840 --> 01:22:19.000 can look at Cody and jay Uso on Raw Monday Night. 1579 01:22:19.000 --> 01:22:21.039 You can look at Gunther and Jayuso two weeks ago. 1580 01:22:21.079 --> 01:22:22.600 There were so many matches that you would look at 1581 01:22:22.640 --> 01:22:24.079 and go, man, this was better than the night too. 1582 01:22:24.119 --> 01:22:26.840 WrestleMania main event. Well, guess what, We're running it back 1583 01:22:26.880 --> 01:22:29.800 again in August, and I certainly hope this time they 1584 01:22:29.800 --> 01:22:32.560 have something better planned. Whatever the outcome of the match 1585 01:22:32.600 --> 01:22:34.399 is going to be, whether there's a cash in or not, 1586 01:22:34.960 --> 01:22:36.760 I hope those two go in there and don't stink 1587 01:22:36.760 --> 01:22:39.680 out the joint. I can't say those two have chemistry 1588 01:22:39.720 --> 01:22:41.840 in the way that Punk and Sena did. I hope 1589 01:22:41.840 --> 01:22:45.239 they can find it. Because now we know what the 1590 01:22:45.239 --> 01:22:47.399 main event is going to be at SummerSlam. It will 1591 01:22:47.439 --> 01:22:50.079 be John Cena defending against Cody Roads. We are getting 1592 01:22:50.079 --> 01:22:52.279 that wrestle Media rematch. I think we all knew it 1593 01:22:52.319 --> 01:22:54.800 was coming. Some people thought maybe it would come at 1594 01:22:54.800 --> 01:22:56.159 the end of the year. They would have seen a 1595 01:22:56.199 --> 01:22:58.359 run all the way to December as the champion. I 1596 01:22:58.359 --> 01:23:01.199 don't think that's what's gonna happen. I still feel like 1597 01:23:01.279 --> 01:23:04.119 you need time to get that title off of him 1598 01:23:04.239 --> 01:23:08.279 and tell the story of him reverting back to being 1599 01:23:08.319 --> 01:23:12.680 a babyface, not simply losing the championship in Boston in 1600 01:23:12.760 --> 01:23:17.960 December and then going okay, handshake, see you guys. There's 1601 01:23:18.039 --> 01:23:20.760 more story to be told. They've really done a very 1602 01:23:20.800 --> 01:23:24.359 poor job so far with Sina with this heel to 1603 01:23:24.399 --> 01:23:26.920 Its very clear they had no plan for this whole 1604 01:23:26.960 --> 01:23:28.800 thing that they've done with him, and it all goes 1605 01:23:28.840 --> 01:23:32.279 back to the bullshited elimination chamber with the Rock. I 1606 01:23:32.319 --> 01:23:34.319 don't know what the original plan was going to be 1607 01:23:34.479 --> 01:23:37.560 for John Cena before they came up with this whole idea. 1608 01:23:38.319 --> 01:23:40.319 I don't know if the idea was we're gonna have 1609 01:23:40.399 --> 01:23:42.920 him win as a babyface or WrestleMania. I don't know 1610 01:23:42.960 --> 01:23:46.319 if the idea was, well, we'll have him win the 1611 01:23:46.359 --> 01:23:50.640 championship and win number seventeen as a babyface, but it'll 1612 01:23:50.640 --> 01:23:53.800 be at SummerSlam. We'll have him fail at wrestle Media. 1613 01:23:53.840 --> 01:23:55.680 It was the idea that I pitched, have him fail 1614 01:23:55.720 --> 01:24:00.399 at WrestleMania. Doubt himself. Maybe I don't have it anymore right, 1615 01:24:00.560 --> 01:24:03.600 and he has to earn his way back into title contention. 1616 01:24:04.279 --> 01:24:06.119 You could have done Sena and Gunther. You could have 1617 01:24:06.119 --> 01:24:09.520 did Seena in anybody, but he wins number seventeen later 1618 01:24:09.560 --> 01:24:12.000 in the year. I don't know what Triple H and 1619 01:24:12.560 --> 01:24:15.039 the creative team were going to do before they came 1620 01:24:15.119 --> 01:24:17.600 up with this wonderful idea to turn John Cena heel 1621 01:24:17.600 --> 01:24:19.720 in the way that they did no real follow up plan, 1622 01:24:20.319 --> 01:24:22.760 but it has been largely a bust. You can find 1623 01:24:22.800 --> 01:24:25.920 select segments here and there, especially in the last few weeks. 1624 01:24:25.960 --> 01:24:28.359 I know people enjoyed like the pipe bomb two point 1625 01:24:28.439 --> 01:24:31.560 zero a couple of weeks ago. You can find like moments, 1626 01:24:32.479 --> 01:24:34.880 But I'm sorry this heel turned this Everything they've done 1627 01:24:34.880 --> 01:24:38.039 with him basically has been a fucking bust up to 1628 01:24:38.119 --> 01:24:40.960 this point. You need time to tell the story the 1629 01:24:41.039 --> 01:24:42.920 right way. John Cena is not going to go out 1630 01:24:42.960 --> 01:24:45.800 as a fucking heel when he spent the majority of 1631 01:24:45.800 --> 01:24:48.079 his career as a babyface, because that would be stupid. 1632 01:24:49.319 --> 01:24:52.800 You need time for him to lose the championship, find himself, 1633 01:24:53.039 --> 01:24:54.880 get back in the good graces of the fans, and 1634 01:24:54.960 --> 01:24:58.159 go out the right way. SummerSlam feels like the right 1635 01:24:58.199 --> 01:25:00.319 time for him to drop that title, because if at 1636 01:25:00.319 --> 01:25:02.840 Summer Slam, what are we looking at. We're looking at 1637 01:25:02.880 --> 01:25:05.880 the end of the year, right He's not gonna retain 1638 01:25:05.960 --> 01:25:08.520 at Summer Slam and then lose it in Paris at 1639 01:25:08.560 --> 01:25:09.319 the end of August. 1640 01:25:09.399 --> 01:25:10.520 I don't think so. 1641 01:25:10.600 --> 01:25:13.840 If he doesn't lose it to Cody at SummerSlam, I 1642 01:25:13.880 --> 01:25:15.600 fear like we're going until the end of the year, 1643 01:25:15.600 --> 01:25:17.880 We're going to Survivor Series, or we're going to you know, 1644 01:25:17.960 --> 01:25:20.479 to December, and he's gonna drop it there. I think 1645 01:25:20.520 --> 01:25:23.319 that would be a mistake. Then you shift over to 1646 01:25:24.640 --> 01:25:27.920 Punk and Rollins. What is Punk going to do going 1647 01:25:27.920 --> 01:25:30.640 into Summer Slam, because I knew he wasn't gonna win 1648 01:25:30.680 --> 01:25:36.199 the championship here. You could build to punkin Gunther for 1649 01:25:36.279 --> 01:25:38.439 the world title if you really wanted to, But they've 1650 01:25:38.439 --> 01:25:40.640 done absolutely nothing in that direction. 1651 01:25:41.000 --> 01:25:41.159 Right. 1652 01:25:41.159 --> 01:25:44.439 It's all about Gunther and Goldberg for the next few weeks. 1653 01:25:45.199 --> 01:25:48.079 It looks like we're heading for another punkin Rollins match, 1654 01:25:49.359 --> 01:25:53.520 and maybe the play here is that they wrestle on 1655 01:25:53.640 --> 01:25:56.960 one night. Punk gets, you know, his win over Seth 1656 01:25:57.000 --> 01:26:00.439 and his revenge, and Punk gets his revenge by cashing 1657 01:26:00.479 --> 01:26:02.119 at his money in the bank the next night because 1658 01:26:02.119 --> 01:26:05.359 he got two nights of Summer Slim this year. I 1659 01:26:05.399 --> 01:26:08.359 don't know, but I will say this, it feels to 1660 01:26:08.399 --> 01:26:10.359 me like these two guys have been feuding from the 1661 01:26:10.399 --> 01:26:13.039 moment Punk came back to the company two years ago. 1662 01:26:14.279 --> 01:26:17.159 I mean, it's just been Rollin's in Punk, Punk and Rollins. 1663 01:26:17.239 --> 01:26:19.119 And how much longer do you want to stretch this 1664 01:26:19.199 --> 01:26:22.239 out for? If you f CM Punk go to Summer 1665 01:26:22.279 --> 01:26:24.640 Slim and beat Seth Rollins, and Seth Rollins ends up 1666 01:26:24.680 --> 01:26:27.159 cashing in his money at the bank and becoming champion. Anyway, 1667 01:26:27.199 --> 01:26:30.960 does Punk then chase Rollins to win the title? Are 1668 01:26:31.000 --> 01:26:33.800 we really going to run this into twenty twenty six? 1669 01:26:35.399 --> 01:26:37.680 I mean, I feel like people are ready to move 1670 01:26:37.720 --> 01:26:39.640 on from this and they're ready for Punk to do 1671 01:26:39.680 --> 01:26:42.840 something else, you know, But here we are, We're right 1672 01:26:42.880 --> 01:26:44.079 back to him and Rollins again. 1673 01:26:44.199 --> 01:26:45.960 So I don't. 1674 01:26:45.800 --> 01:26:48.319 Know, I don't know what the play is here. You 1675 01:26:48.319 --> 01:26:50.279 got Saturday Night's main event coming up. You could do 1676 01:26:50.399 --> 01:26:54.680 Rollins and Punk on that show. But if he doesn't 1677 01:26:54.680 --> 01:26:57.119 wrestle Rollins at Summer Slim, I don't know what he does. 1678 01:26:57.760 --> 01:26:59.880 He certainly has good reason to want to get, you know, 1679 01:27:00.079 --> 01:27:01.840 his head on a platter after what happened here on 1680 01:27:01.840 --> 01:27:05.239 this show. That feels to me like the Summer Sligh match. 1681 01:27:06.600 --> 01:27:08.760 But at least the pieces are starting to fall into place. 1682 01:27:09.000 --> 01:27:10.680 We now know what our main event is going to 1683 01:27:10.720 --> 01:27:13.359 be at MetLife. It's going to be Sena, It's gonna 1684 01:27:13.359 --> 01:27:16.199 be Cody. Whether or not we get a cash in 1685 01:27:16.279 --> 01:27:18.199 on that show or sometime before, I guess we'll have 1686 01:27:18.199 --> 01:27:19.720 to wait and see. Some people think, so that's going 1687 01:27:19.800 --> 01:27:22.000 to cash in during Goldberg and Gunther. 1688 01:27:22.640 --> 01:27:24.359 You know, for the World Heavyweight Championship. 1689 01:27:25.439 --> 01:27:28.800 I certainly hope that doesn't mean that people think Goldberg 1690 01:27:28.880 --> 01:27:31.960 is going to win the world title. I don't want 1691 01:27:31.960 --> 01:27:35.920 to be hearing about that. You can shut right up 1692 01:27:35.920 --> 01:27:38.119 with that. Let's take a look at the Twitter pool. 1693 01:27:38.119 --> 01:27:40.159 What do you think of Night of Champions Here from 1694 01:27:40.239 --> 01:27:45.439 Riodd seventy three percent thumbs up for this show, twenty 1695 01:27:45.560 --> 01:27:50.319 seven percent thumbs down and that is with almost sixteen 1696 01:27:50.399 --> 01:27:54.119 hundred votes in and counting. So go ahead, thumbs up, 1697 01:27:54.399 --> 01:27:57.920 thumbs down. Let me know what you thought of the show. 1698 01:28:00.960 --> 01:28:04.680 We can get into your super chats here.

So we'll be doing 1701 01:28:08.680 --> 01:28:11.000 the one round of be the Booker here in a 1702 01:28:11.000 --> 01:28:14.439 little bit, So be the Booker on a Saturday evening. 1703 01:28:15.479 --> 01:28:22.479 It's never a bad thing.

Episode nine to eighteen of the SoundOff. There's 1706 01:28:28.880 --> 01:28:37.760 penta pop it up on screen, so it's seventy three percent. 1707 01:28:37.840 --> 01:28:41.199 I don't know about that. Yeah, I'm not. I don't 1708 01:28:41.239 --> 01:28:43.199 believe this to be a seventy three. 1709 01:28:43.039 --> 01:28:47.479 Percent thumbs up show, but they certainly are entitled to 1710 01:28:47.520 --> 01:28:49.479 their opinion if that's how they felt about the show. 1711 01:28:50.600 --> 01:28:53.520 This was a very middle of the road show. 1712 01:28:57.760 --> 01:29:00.399 I've seen worse, but I've also seen a lot better. 1713 01:29:01.199 --> 01:29:02.119 Let's put it that way. 1714 01:29:03.600 --> 01:29:06.520 Luis Wow, Luis is actually first in Q for the 1715 01:29:06.520 --> 01:29:09.800 first time. Here with these super chats five dollars Night 1716 01:29:09.800 --> 01:29:14.000 of Champions more like lunchtime of Champions. The lunchtime at 1717 01:29:14.000 --> 01:29:16.800 the bank joke I made two years ago has gotten 1718 01:29:16.840 --> 01:29:21.239 old very fast. Well, I'm gonna I'm gonna admit to 1719 01:29:21.239 --> 01:29:24.920 you that I don't remember the joke. I believe you 1720 01:29:25.000 --> 01:29:29.560 that you told it, but I don't remember it. Dry 1721 01:29:29.680 --> 01:29:32.960 Chicken says, it's a super It's it's a super hot. 1722 01:29:36.880 --> 01:29:39.119 Thank you, Dry Chicken. I got a chance to watch 1723 01:29:39.159 --> 01:29:41.720 smack Down on USA last night. I'm glad the extra 1724 01:29:41.760 --> 01:29:45.800 cameras were able to capture the Cody and Randy segment. Also, 1725 01:29:45.840 --> 01:29:50.840 I'm glad see I'm Punk became Gangsta Phil One Bill 1726 01:29:50.960 --> 01:29:56.279 Phil and white Chocolate Pill. He's invited to the cookout 1727 01:29:56.439 --> 01:30:04.840 on July fourth. No, he became doctor PHILP. Such a layup? 1728 01:30:04.880 --> 01:30:07.960 How can you miss that one? Thank you, drag Chicken. 1729 01:30:12.199 --> 01:30:17.000 Aaron thoughts on sena Cody double turn at SummerSlam. 1730 01:30:18.439 --> 01:30:19.000 I don't see it. 1731 01:30:22.039 --> 01:30:23.159 Got that fuckp? 1732 01:30:26.039 --> 01:30:26.720 What happened? 1733 01:30:27.560 --> 01:30:34.079 God? Fuck that tree man. That tree was really struggling there. Oh, 1734 01:30:38.239 --> 01:30:40.960 I don't see it. I don't see it. I think 1735 01:30:40.960 --> 01:30:42.439 there's a way to do it where it could be 1736 01:30:42.560 --> 01:30:45.079 very interesting. It would certainly shake things up a little bit. 1737 01:30:46.279 --> 01:30:48.479 I don't hate the idea. I just I don't think 1738 01:30:48.479 --> 01:30:50.800 it's going to happen. I don't think that they're ready 1739 01:30:50.800 --> 01:30:53.560 to turn Cody yet. No matter how hard the Rock 1740 01:30:53.680 --> 01:30:55.159 wants to see it, I don't think they're ready to 1741 01:30:55.199 --> 01:30:55.800 do it just yet. 1742 01:31:01.720 --> 01:31:02.239 Dry Chicken. 1743 01:31:02.279 --> 01:31:04.760 I wonder if Randy Orton will be receiving special gifts 1744 01:31:04.840 --> 01:31:08.920 after losing twice in King of the Ring mailed from 1745 01:31:08.960 --> 01:31:10.479 Hawaii to Missouri. 1746 01:31:10.560 --> 01:31:11.840 If you smell what's cooking. 1747 01:31:15.159 --> 01:31:19.039 I think he's busy doing other things and probably we 1748 01:31:19.079 --> 01:31:21.520 will not be seeing or hearing from the rock for 1749 01:31:21.640 --> 01:31:31.479 some time, scum Dog or twenty Hey solo. Today I 1750 01:31:31.600 --> 01:31:34.800 learned that my dad passed away overnight. I just want 1751 01:31:34.800 --> 01:31:37.039 to remind everybody to hug your loved ones and don't 1752 01:31:37.039 --> 01:31:40.119 take them for granted. You never know when things may change. 1753 01:31:40.159 --> 01:31:41.399 Rest in peace, Dad, I'm. 1754 01:31:41.279 --> 01:31:41.800 Gonna miss you. 1755 01:31:43.239 --> 01:31:46.199 My condolence is scum Dog. I'm very sorry to hear that. 1756 01:31:46.199 --> 01:31:51.479 That's terrible news. So we're all we're all thinking about you. 1757 01:31:53.000 --> 01:31:56.000 Appreciate you being on these streams. You're always welcome here, 1758 01:31:56.039 --> 01:32:03.520 you know that. But I'm very sorry. Dry Chicken ten 1759 01:32:03.560 --> 01:32:06.359 dollars super chap. This is not a prediction and this 1760 01:32:06.479 --> 01:32:10.600 is not a spoiler. This is fighting temptations. Aw could 1761 01:32:10.600 --> 01:32:17.279 be tempted to book Swerve, costing Hangman Page the world 1762 01:32:17.439 --> 01:32:23.399 heavyweight title. It could be tempted to do that. I 1763 01:32:23.479 --> 01:32:26.680 will be very upset if they do. I hope not. 1764 01:32:28.920 --> 01:32:30.760 I would rather see them find their way to each 1765 01:32:30.800 --> 01:32:33.960 other as a tag team for. 1766 01:32:33.920 --> 01:32:36.039 A match, not as a permanent team. 1767 01:32:36.079 --> 01:32:40.880 But yeah, finally put their differences aside as opposed to 1768 01:32:41.199 --> 01:32:43.640 just reigniting their feud and just screwing him out of 1769 01:32:43.640 --> 01:32:45.600 the championship. I just feel like that would be very lame. 1770 01:32:45.880 --> 01:32:48.399 I mean, Swerve has been mister AW. 1771 01:32:48.279 --> 01:32:51.279 For months now. Would he Why would he do that? 1772 01:32:51.319 --> 01:32:52.920 I mean I know that he and Hangman they have 1773 01:32:52.960 --> 01:32:54.439 no love for each other, but it just feels like 1774 01:32:54.479 --> 01:32:55.880 the story that they've been trying to tell. 1775 01:32:55.880 --> 01:32:57.439 Here is the end goal. 1776 01:32:57.600 --> 01:33:02.640 Here is them finally putting their differences aside. In fact, 1777 01:33:02.680 --> 01:33:05.720 if Hangman wins the championship at all, in and we 1778 01:33:05.760 --> 01:33:10.079 do get interference from all these different people, I think 1779 01:33:10.079 --> 01:33:13.239 that a great closing, kind of parting scene to it 1780 01:33:13.319 --> 01:33:17.680 all would be Hangman and Swerve shaking hands a show 1781 01:33:17.680 --> 01:33:18.199 of respect. 1782 01:33:18.279 --> 01:33:19.399 They actually shake. 1783 01:33:19.159 --> 01:33:23.399 Hands and Swerve, you know, basically congratulates him. That's kind 1784 01:33:23.439 --> 01:33:26.720 of his endorsement, you know, for saving aw and rescuing 1785 01:33:26.720 --> 01:33:30.680 the World Championship. I think for their big Texas stadium show, 1786 01:33:30.720 --> 01:33:33.319 that would be a very cool, very appropriate way to 1787 01:33:33.359 --> 01:33:36.319 close things out. To have him screw over Hangman I 1788 01:33:36.359 --> 01:33:45.319 think would be super lame. Oh, we had Carlos seeing 1789 01:33:45.319 --> 01:33:47.800 his shoulder tackle should be his finisher for how long 1790 01:33:47.840 --> 01:33:51.319 it puts the referee down. Yeah, that man man Dan 1791 01:33:51.359 --> 01:33:53.079 Engler was downfall like fifteen minutes. 1792 01:33:53.119 --> 01:33:57.840 It felt like right. 1793 01:33:57.920 --> 01:34:00.159 Chicken says, see, I'm Punk is going to strike down 1794 01:34:00.239 --> 01:34:04.319 with great vengeance and furious anger on seth Rawlins. Phil 1795 01:34:04.399 --> 01:34:07.359 is going to have a lot of bad ideas for 1796 01:34:07.520 --> 01:34:12.239 seth Rawlins. Well maybe so, I'm sure none as bad 1797 01:34:12.239 --> 01:34:14.079 as the idea that he had to come out dressed 1798 01:34:14.119 --> 01:34:16.279 up the way he was dressed up on SmackDown last night. 1799 01:34:16.279 --> 01:34:20.000 I hope hopefully not quite that bad. High Chief. 1800 01:34:21.800 --> 01:34:25.520 I think SummerSlam is Roman Punk against Seth and Braun 1801 01:34:26.640 --> 01:34:32.680 in a tag team match.

I hope he gives him some love 1837 01:36:47.239 --> 01:36:49.279 on his show and the way that he usually vents 1838 01:36:49.279 --> 01:36:59.479 about Jay Power, Spying Games UK Friendly Solo Monster stream. 1839 01:36:59.600 --> 01:37:01.399 There are there were people who tend to be able 1840 01:37:01.439 --> 01:37:05.359 to hang out when we have these earlier shows. 1841 01:37:10.199 --> 01:37:14.479 Justter, Justter Benz did see him Punk wear his. 1842 01:37:16.039 --> 01:37:18.640 Pro Live show on the pro Live shirt on the show, 1843 01:37:18.640 --> 01:37:20.600 did he hold up a protect trans Kids sign? 1844 01:37:20.640 --> 01:37:25.079 I don't watch these Saudi shows? Just curious? No, No, 1845 01:37:25.159 --> 01:37:25.560 he did not. 1846 01:37:26.159 --> 01:37:30.800 He did apologize though, he said that he was very cranky. 1847 01:37:30.840 --> 01:37:33.800 You woke up very cranky when he tweeted what he 1848 01:37:33.840 --> 01:37:38.880 did many years ago to the Miz. So he's genuinely 1849 01:37:38.960 --> 01:37:46.199 sorry and he loves everyone now. He's a lovable guy. 1850 01:37:47.520 --> 01:37:51.000 Hot Rock Hudson seventeen months of channel membership. Cody working 1851 01:37:51.039 --> 01:37:53.960 the match heel was interesting. I thought Punk and Sena 1852 01:37:54.079 --> 01:37:59.720 was good until see I see. I didn't see Cody 1853 01:37:59.720 --> 01:38:02.199 working the match heel. He was working the match smart. 1854 01:38:02.520 --> 01:38:04.840 I think there's a difference. I think people need to 1855 01:38:04.920 --> 01:38:08.760 understand the distinction between a guy who's suddenly working heel 1856 01:38:08.840 --> 01:38:12.319 in a match or just you know, working smart and 1857 01:38:12.399 --> 01:38:15.880 taking advantage of a situation. If he was working heel, 1858 01:38:16.000 --> 01:38:16.720 I think it would. 1859 01:38:16.560 --> 01:38:18.520 Have been a little more overt. I didn't read it 1860 01:38:18.560 --> 01:38:18.960 that way. 1861 01:38:19.720 --> 01:38:22.079 I think the story going into SummerSlam is going to 1862 01:38:22.119 --> 01:38:25.560 be more Okay, I'm willing to do whatever it takes 1863 01:38:25.760 --> 01:38:28.159 and not make the same mistake that I made back 1864 01:38:28.159 --> 01:38:31.720 in Las Vegas. I didn't really look at it as 1865 01:38:31.800 --> 01:38:34.159 him working heel. If anybody worked more heel in that match, 1866 01:38:34.199 --> 01:38:37.520 it was Randy Orton. I mean, he's the one who 1867 01:38:37.520 --> 01:38:44.960 tried to cheat. Can't let him off the hook also 1868 01:38:45.000 --> 01:38:48.000 says I thought Punk and Sina was good until freaking 1869 01:38:48.600 --> 01:38:51.000 I'll be happy when punkin Steth is over Cody and 1870 01:38:51.079 --> 01:38:52.159 Punk restarts. 1871 01:38:52.600 --> 01:38:54.000 Yeah, you know, at some point. 1872 01:38:53.760 --> 01:38:55.600 We have to get that Cody and Punk match. To me, 1873 01:38:55.720 --> 01:39:01.439 that's far more interesting than Cody and Sena. Maybe they're 1874 01:39:01.479 --> 01:39:09.239 saving a Cody heel turn for that Rapevine fires. Is 1875 01:39:09.279 --> 01:39:11.239 this as good as Jade can be in the ring? 1876 01:39:11.359 --> 01:39:13.920 It feels like her improvement has been minimal at best 1877 01:39:14.039 --> 01:39:18.039 since joining WWE. 1878 01:39:18.760 --> 01:39:19.239 I hope not. 1879 01:39:20.680 --> 01:39:23.680 I hope that her working with people better than her 1880 01:39:23.800 --> 01:39:28.000 Oscar certainly is. I hope that will help her along 1881 01:39:28.039 --> 01:39:31.720 the way. I think part of the problem, honestly, when 1882 01:39:31.760 --> 01:39:33.920 it comes to someone like her and Jade just I mean, 1883 01:39:33.960 --> 01:39:36.039 she looks like a superhero, you know, and this is 1884 01:39:36.079 --> 01:39:39.159 a company that puts a premium on that sort of thing. 1885 01:39:39.880 --> 01:39:43.159 You look at her and she just looks like a superstar. 1886 01:39:43.960 --> 01:39:47.079 She is going to do big things no matter what. Right, 1887 01:39:47.600 --> 01:39:49.560 maybe this is her ceiling in ring. As far as 1888 01:39:49.600 --> 01:39:52.479 the quality of her matches, I don't know. So she's 1889 01:39:52.520 --> 01:39:55.720 gonna be fine, But I think she's someone who suffers 1890 01:39:55.920 --> 01:39:58.279 from the lack of house shows. 1891 01:39:59.600 --> 01:40:00.520 There are fewer and. 1892 01:40:00.439 --> 01:40:04.039 Fewer live events now. WWE is hardly running anyhowse shows anymore, 1893 01:40:04.560 --> 01:40:07.600 and I feel like at a different time, she's someone 1894 01:40:07.600 --> 01:40:11.880 who greatly would have benefited from having a schedule where 1895 01:40:12.039 --> 01:40:14.000 she would have been in the ring, not on TV, 1896 01:40:14.600 --> 01:40:16.000 but she would have been in the ring able to 1897 01:40:16.000 --> 01:40:19.319 work matches against veterans, whether it's people like Natty or whoever, 1898 01:40:20.359 --> 01:40:24.039 plenty of veterans on that roster over and over, night 1899 01:40:24.079 --> 01:40:26.359 after night after night. Being able to work those people, 1900 01:40:27.479 --> 01:40:30.239 She's someone that would have benefited from that. She would 1901 01:40:30.239 --> 01:40:33.960 have benefited from a proper run in NXT, really, but 1902 01:40:34.000 --> 01:40:37.399 the fact that they run so few live events actually 1903 01:40:37.520 --> 01:40:41.600 hurts people like her, who I think would greatly benefit 1904 01:40:41.600 --> 01:40:42.479 from something like that. 1905 01:40:44.760 --> 01:40:48.560 Liquid Sharing and thank you for thirty eight months of 1906 01:40:48.680 --> 01:40:51.359 channel membership. Holy shit, it's a long time. 1907 01:40:51.479 --> 01:40:56.439 Zizu two gifted memberships to two brand new channel members. 1908 01:40:56.439 --> 01:41:03.319 We got Pudgy. I hope YouTube fixes these names. I'm 1909 01:41:03.359 --> 01:41:05.199 sure these are all people like I know who they are, 1910 01:41:05.239 --> 01:41:08.399 but like looking at their handles, I have no idea 1911 01:41:08.439 --> 01:41:10.960 who they are, Pudgie. One of the things I like 1912 01:41:11.000 --> 01:41:14.319 about the Saudi shows is the creativity of the ladies 1913 01:41:14.359 --> 01:41:20.199 in their bodysuits. Well, they shouldn't have to wear them, 1914 01:41:20.199 --> 01:41:22.039 but I mean, you know, they do what they have 1915 01:41:22.079 --> 01:41:24.720 to do and they make the most of it. What 1916 01:41:24.840 --> 01:41:26.800 was that makeup that Ryo was wearing. I feel like 1917 01:41:26.840 --> 01:41:30.680 that was based off a character. 1918 01:41:30.359 --> 01:41:30.800 I don't know. 1919 01:41:30.880 --> 01:41:35.239 I don't know who she was supposed to be, Dried Chicken. 1920 01:41:35.279 --> 01:41:41.039 We need Oscar against EO at SummerSlam. Let's will it 1921 01:41:41.119 --> 01:41:47.760 into existence. Brother, I've been trying to I would love 1922 01:41:47.800 --> 01:41:51.880 to see that match. Jeremy Rose, do you think WWE 1923 01:41:52.000 --> 01:41:55.439 taping SmackDown on Monday is the right move or should 1924 01:41:55.439 --> 01:41:58.199 they have just did a special Tuesday or Wednesday SmackDown. 1925 01:41:58.239 --> 01:42:02.199 I'm saying that's all a lot of wrestling for one crowd. No, 1926 01:42:02.319 --> 01:42:05.720 it's fine, it's fine. It's going to be a two 1927 01:42:05.720 --> 01:42:09.359 hour show. It's not a three hour show. Ross two 1928 01:42:09.399 --> 01:42:11.880 and a half hours, SmackDown will be two four and 1929 01:42:11.920 --> 01:42:16.960 a half hours. It's not a short show. I might 1930 01:42:17.000 --> 01:42:20.880 feel that way I SmackDown was still three hours. I 1931 01:42:20.880 --> 01:42:25.119 don't think it's a big deal. In this case, we 1932 01:42:25.239 --> 01:42:31.600 got majed nine months of membership. Greetings from Riod. Is 1933 01:42:31.680 --> 01:42:33.840 wonderful to see you live and I sincerely hope you 1934 01:42:33.880 --> 01:42:36.680 were doing well well. I'm glad that you can join us. 1935 01:42:38.399 --> 01:42:40.319 Were you at the event? I know a couple of 1936 01:42:40.359 --> 01:42:43.399 people who were keeping me posted on the shows that 1937 01:42:43.520 --> 01:42:49.279 the was a Kingdom arena, and someone mentioned to me, 1938 01:42:49.479 --> 01:42:52.119 who was I think at the show at SmackDown last night, 1939 01:42:52.439 --> 01:42:57.680 that the attendance was awful and they were just summoning 1940 01:42:57.720 --> 01:43:01.279 people up to could look more filled in than it 1941 01:43:01.319 --> 01:43:05.279 really was. My impression was that the show was either 1942 01:43:05.319 --> 01:43:08.800 sold out or close to sold out for today, and 1943 01:43:09.079 --> 01:43:12.479 he said that that wasn't the case. So I would 1944 01:43:12.520 --> 01:43:14.239 be curious if they did the same thing for Night 1945 01:43:14.239 --> 01:43:17.079 of Champions that they did for SmackDown, and if the 1946 01:43:17.119 --> 01:43:19.319 attendance was not great, if they just made sure they 1947 01:43:19.359 --> 01:43:22.079 got these sort of tight shots of the of the 1948 01:43:22.119 --> 01:43:23.880 arena there, or maybe it was more filled in. I 1949 01:43:23.920 --> 01:43:26.680 don't know, but he said tickets were very expensive, so 1950 01:43:26.760 --> 01:43:28.600 that's a big part of course. I mean it's tko. 1951 01:43:30.159 --> 01:43:36.960 Everything is expensive. Thank you to Jed, I appreciate you brother. 1952 01:43:37.079 --> 01:43:43.039 Nine months of membership and look at this gifted five 1953 01:43:43.119 --> 01:43:46.039 channel memberships too, bringing in five new members of the family. 1954 01:43:46.079 --> 01:43:46.720 Did the sound up? 1955 01:43:46.800 --> 01:43:48.439 I love it? 1956 01:43:48.560 --> 01:43:48.960 Awesome. 1957 01:43:49.039 --> 01:43:53.760 Bobby's World also with a gifted membership to sik mundas. 1958 01:43:56.640 --> 01:43:57.560 We've got GMB. 1959 01:43:58.760 --> 01:44:00.880 Do you think Bianca would get cheered as a heel 1960 01:44:00.960 --> 01:44:03.680 though she told Shandross Sap earlier this year that she 1961 01:44:03.720 --> 01:44:06.199 would want to be a piece of shit heel, not 1962 01:44:06.279 --> 01:44:08.560 a cool one, So then she could be a piece 1963 01:44:08.560 --> 01:44:12.600 of shit heel. I mean, it all depends on how 1964 01:44:12.640 --> 01:44:14.680 she's booked and the things that she does as a heel. 1965 01:44:14.680 --> 01:44:16.279 If she doesn't want to be cheered as a heel, 1966 01:44:16.319 --> 01:44:17.680 then there are things that you can do to try 1967 01:44:17.720 --> 01:44:20.600 to make sure you don't get cheered. I mean, if 1968 01:44:20.600 --> 01:44:24.359 she wants to be the most unlikable, contemptible heel that 1969 01:44:24.399 --> 01:44:29.880 she can be, then she won't get cheered. I think 1970 01:44:30.039 --> 01:44:32.640 it could work. I would like to see Bianca get 1971 01:44:32.640 --> 01:44:43.199 a shot as a heel. Grant I miss Pat Patterson. 1972 01:44:43.479 --> 01:44:47.119 A lot of the finishes need a lot of editing today. Anyway, 1973 01:44:47.159 --> 01:44:49.399 Punkin Saddie was good to see. Did you hear Triple 1974 01:44:49.560 --> 01:44:52.560 H's comments on personal growth? 1975 01:44:55.880 --> 01:45:00.880 I did not. It was nice for him to go 1976 01:45:00.920 --> 01:45:01.920 seek out that kid. 1977 01:45:01.760 --> 01:45:04.560 Though at the kickoff show yesterday that he blew off 1978 01:45:04.600 --> 01:45:07.880 the other day to go get that picture with him. 1979 01:45:08.920 --> 01:45:12.840 I thought that was nice. Jeremy Rose, I feel like 1980 01:45:12.920 --> 01:45:15.359 Punk wins the title against Rollin's a WrestleMania. 1981 01:45:16.640 --> 01:45:20.680 I could see that. I do feel like Punk finally winning. 1982 01:45:20.439 --> 01:45:24.399 The championship, if it happens, is probably a wrestlemedia moment. 1983 01:45:28.600 --> 01:45:34.840 Bobby's World gifted membership to Low King seventy two thirty five. 1984 01:45:38.000 --> 01:45:38.960 Hey Paul, what's going on? 1985 01:45:39.039 --> 01:45:42.880 Paul? The storm thing with Jade is so stupid. By 1986 01:45:42.880 --> 01:45:44.880 the way, she looked like she was wearing a mask. 1987 01:45:45.319 --> 01:45:47.359 Her face was so caked out. I thought she was 1988 01:45:47.399 --> 01:45:50.439 just sweating because it was very hot over there. She 1989 01:45:50.439 --> 01:45:52.720 looked like she was just pouring buckets at the end 1990 01:45:52.760 --> 01:45:55.399 of that match. That's what it looked like to me. 1991 01:46:01.000 --> 01:46:04.239 Should John Cena win the Intercontinental title before retiring to 1992 01:46:04.279 --> 01:46:06.760 become a Grand Slam Champion, he has never held the 1993 01:46:07.079 --> 01:46:15.720 IC title. No, no at this point now Darth panic 1994 01:46:15.920 --> 01:46:18.399 thirty eight months of channel membership. So when Cody wins 1995 01:46:18.399 --> 01:46:20.800 the belt back at SummerSlam, what's next for him? In 1996 01:46:20.880 --> 01:46:23.039 terms of opponents? I feel like he has faced just 1997 01:46:23.079 --> 01:46:26.000 about Ara. Did you not hear me talking about Randy Orton? 1998 01:46:27.039 --> 01:46:29.560 An extended feud coming up soon at Randy Orton. It's 1999 01:46:29.560 --> 01:46:42.279 all right there, Sick Mundas with a ten dollars super chat. 2000 01:46:42.319 --> 01:46:44.199 Thanks for all that you do, Solo. Hope you're having 2001 01:46:44.239 --> 01:46:46.840 a great day so far. Mine was eventful. I got 2002 01:46:46.840 --> 01:46:50.800 a picture framed and now it's doing time upstate for 2003 01:46:51.119 --> 01:47:03.039 armed robbery. Thank you, Sick Mundas. We got mister bank. 2004 01:47:05.319 --> 01:47:08.479 Do you think Sina wins his eighteenth in December? His 2005 01:47:08.600 --> 01:47:10.119 eighteenth World Championship? 2006 01:47:12.680 --> 01:47:13.359 No? I do not. 2007 01:47:16.479 --> 01:47:18.479 Even know why you would suggest a thing like that. 2008 01:47:19.960 --> 01:47:31.119 We got laid back lashar over Solo's fireplace. Hey, if 2009 01:47:31.119 --> 01:47:32.920 I had a fireplace, I might actually hang it up 2010 01:47:32.920 --> 01:47:43.880 on my mantle right by the fireplace, laid back lashar. 2011 01:47:46.720 --> 01:47:49.359 I feel like Cody is getting booed at SummerSlam. What 2012 01:47:49.399 --> 01:47:51.800 do you think is the cause of this subtle turn? 2013 01:47:54.680 --> 01:47:56.960 I just talked about it. I just talked about it. 2014 01:47:57.000 --> 01:48:01.760 I think it's more him beginning to show that he 2015 01:48:01.920 --> 01:48:05.840 is willing to do whatever it takes to get the 2016 01:48:05.960 --> 01:48:09.560 job done and get that belt back against John Cena 2017 01:48:09.560 --> 01:48:13.239 at SummerSlam. I don't think you're wrong to assume that 2018 01:48:13.439 --> 01:48:16.560 the crowd may turn on Cody at SummerSlam. Remember, SummerSlam 2019 01:48:16.680 --> 01:48:19.960 is in what technically it's New Jersey, but it's like 2020 01:48:20.079 --> 01:48:24.119 WWE New York, New York, New Jersey. They're in the 2021 01:48:24.159 --> 01:48:26.479 tri state area, and these New York fans are going 2022 01:48:26.560 --> 01:48:28.119 to be there, and you never know how a New 2023 01:48:28.199 --> 01:48:30.920 York crowd is going to react. So is there a 2024 01:48:30.960 --> 01:48:34.680 possibility that they may turn against Sena or Cody, especially 2025 01:48:34.720 --> 01:48:36.880 with this being seen as last year as possible. 2026 01:48:39.439 --> 01:48:39.800 I don't know. 2027 01:48:39.880 --> 01:48:41.520 I still feel like they're not ready to turn him 2028 01:48:41.560 --> 01:48:47.960 heel just yet. Duff's VIDs says, poop jokes aren't my 2029 01:48:48.079 --> 01:48:51.079 favorite kind of jokes, but they're a solid number two, 2030 01:48:52.520 --> 01:48:54.680 solid number two you always want you do want them 2031 01:48:54.680 --> 01:48:58.760 to be solid. Very important to make sure you get 2032 01:48:58.840 --> 01:49:06.359 enough fiber in your diet. Fox Boom, I Love you 2033 01:49:06.439 --> 01:49:11.640 solo and four letters, one word, uh huh yat you 2034 01:49:11.720 --> 01:49:15.079 had to eat Man was not there tonight. It's kind 2035 01:49:15.119 --> 01:49:23.159 of surprising. New Jersey is a suburb of New York 2036 01:49:23.199 --> 01:49:27.720 to ww WE, it is Duffs VIDs. Two slices of 2037 01:49:27.760 --> 01:49:31.960 bread got married. The wedding was amazing until someone decided 2038 01:49:32.479 --> 01:49:36.079 to toast the bride and groom. Oh man, damn, I 2039 01:49:36.119 --> 01:49:44.119 hate when that happens. Rest in pieces. That's terrible. Q 2040 01:49:44.399 --> 01:49:47.600 Dog forty nine months of membership, no message, just renewing 2041 01:49:47.600 --> 01:49:53.920 for forty nine months. Q dog, thank you one month away, 2042 01:49:55.239 --> 01:49:59.199 dry chicken food, WWE Evolution we need Booker T. Wade, Barrett, 2043 01:49:59.279 --> 01:50:04.039 Vic Joseph, Cory Graves, Michael Cole, and female guest commentators. 2044 01:50:04.159 --> 01:50:07.199 I hope there's a rotation for the commentary on that show. 2045 01:50:07.640 --> 01:50:10.319 I'm curious why you selected those people. Why does Booker 2046 01:50:10.319 --> 01:50:18.439 T need to be on the Evolution Show or Vic, 2047 01:50:18.560 --> 01:50:22.520 Joseph or Wade? I mean, I guess, I mean, okay, 2048 01:50:22.560 --> 01:50:25.960 So I guess you're saying if there are NXT matches, 2049 01:50:26.000 --> 01:50:28.000 that the NXT commentators should be there for it. 2050 01:50:28.079 --> 01:50:29.439 I mean, I guess that makes sense. 2051 01:50:31.359 --> 01:50:34.279 Like I read that, I'm like, Booker T, Wade, Barrett, 2052 01:50:34.279 --> 01:50:37.560 they have to be on the Evolution Show. I'm like why, 2053 01:50:38.279 --> 01:50:40.760 I assume that if they have brand specific matches, they 2054 01:50:40.800 --> 01:50:50.920 will have their commentators there. Bobby's World gifted another one 2055 01:50:51.439 --> 01:51:00.359 to Joe Caseyu unfiltered twenty seven months. That's all awesome. 2056 01:51:02.119 --> 01:51:06.079 It's a long ass time. Happy to have you. Booker 2057 01:51:06.159 --> 01:51:15.880 T exclusively for Stephanie Vicker's Man. We got Erasia nine 2058 01:51:16.439 --> 01:51:22.560 eight three four as the one submission in that could 2059 01:51:22.680 --> 01:51:26.600 kill someone. Sleepers are disrespected. People don't struggle enough and 2060 01:51:26.680 --> 01:51:31.479 wake up after being out for a two count. Jay 2061 01:51:31.560 --> 01:51:35.800 Uso didn't when he wrestled gun Through a few weeks ago. 2062 01:51:37.960 --> 01:51:43.159 Every move, honestly, every move is disrespected. You really think 2063 01:51:43.199 --> 01:51:47.960 about it, Every finishing move is disrespected. They kick out 2064 01:51:47.960 --> 01:51:51.119 of it with impunity, get back up. They don't sell it. 2065 01:51:54.640 --> 01:51:59.720 Duff's VIDs. I was robbed by six dwarves today. Not 2066 01:52:06.439 --> 01:52:10.199 he was always my favorite. Actually, you know, Grumpy. 2067 01:52:09.880 --> 01:52:11.399 Was my favorite. 2068 01:52:12.039 --> 01:52:15.560 Big surprise, I know ed Swaggle. Why is Peter Pan 2069 01:52:15.760 --> 01:52:28.479 always flying? He never lands? Ugh, Donni Yasu, it's late, 2070 01:52:28.520 --> 01:52:31.760 but happy. One hundred to the Titans. Thank you, Donnie. 2071 01:52:32.079 --> 01:52:35.840 We had episode one hundred of TNT on Tuesday. Next Tuesday, 2072 01:52:35.880 --> 01:52:37.520 it's one oh one. We begin our trek to two 2073 01:52:37.600 --> 01:52:42.640 hundred Bobby's World. Haven't been watching much WWE lately, but 2074 01:52:42.640 --> 01:52:45.520 didn't realize how much I missed Osca until tonight. I 2075 01:52:45.560 --> 01:52:47.479 think she will one day go down as an all 2076 01:52:47.520 --> 01:52:49.960 time great. I think she's already an all time great 2077 01:52:50.000 --> 01:52:52.359 status when you look at her body of work over 2078 01:52:52.399 --> 01:53:01.319 her career, I feel like she's already there. There he 2079 01:53:01.479 --> 01:53:07.439 is Tongaaloa a super fan. Just read that one and Rekinson, 2080 01:53:08.199 --> 01:53:13.159 whatever happened to Sexy Star? I think the better question 2081 01:53:13.319 --> 01:53:19.720 is who gives a shit? Nobody really seemed to like 2082 01:53:19.760 --> 01:53:22.640 Sexy Star, especially after she took liberties that one time. 2083 01:53:23.279 --> 01:53:27.119 Oh God, who was it that she in the in 2084 01:53:27.159 --> 01:53:30.800 the arm bar? Was somebody from t was Was it Rosemary? 2085 01:53:31.600 --> 01:53:34.840 Maybe it was Rosemary? It was somebody from TNA. There's 2086 01:53:34.880 --> 01:53:37.800 a new Sexy Star. It's not the same person who 2087 01:53:38.000 --> 01:53:40.720 was the old one. It's a new person. She's fine, 2088 01:53:41.760 --> 01:53:45.039 But as far as the original Sexy Star, I don't 2089 01:53:45.079 --> 01:53:48.399 really give a shit. Anybody who would do that to 2090 01:53:48.439 --> 01:53:51.920 another wrestler, to me, like should be blackballed from the industry. 2091 01:53:52.840 --> 01:53:54.880 And you don't belong, you don't belong in the ring. 2092 01:53:55.239 --> 01:53:57.239 I don't know why any wrestler would ever trust a 2093 01:53:57.239 --> 01:54:00.000 person like that with their body to get in the 2094 01:54:00.119 --> 01:54:02.239 ring with them? After that, When you do something like that, 2095 01:54:02.239 --> 01:54:04.319 that should be it for you. I know, usually it's not, 2096 01:54:04.880 --> 01:54:07.960 especially if you're a star, you'll always get booked. But 2097 01:54:08.479 --> 01:54:11.359 to me, that was just disgusting. It was Rosemary. Okay, 2098 01:54:11.439 --> 01:54:16.960 that's what I thought. Yeah, just absolutely disgusting. Fuck Sexy Star. 2099 01:54:17.760 --> 01:54:22.640 The new Sexy Star is fine, though I have no 2100 01:54:22.720 --> 01:54:32.039 beef with her and Duff's VIDs. Why should you never 2101 01:54:32.119 --> 01:54:44.720 throw false teeth at your car? You might denture car? Oh, 2102 01:54:44.800 --> 01:54:57.239 Duffs Duff's VIDs? What would we do without you? Sexy 2103 01:54:57.319 --> 01:55:01.800 Star two is no longer a Sexy Star? Did she 2104 01:55:01.880 --> 01:55:05.359 change her name? Am I behind the eight ball on 2105 01:55:05.479 --> 01:55:06.920 my Sexy Star knowledge? 2106 01:55:07.600 --> 01:55:09.279 Well? The point is though that if there is a. 2107 01:55:11.279 --> 01:55:13.359 New Sexy Star, it may not be the original one, 2108 01:55:13.479 --> 01:55:19.479 so don't hold it against the new person. Yeah, that 2109 01:55:19.600 --> 01:55:24.600 was a terrible story. Reekin's son also forgot to share. 2110 01:55:24.720 --> 01:55:28.479 Last Sunday met Jacob Fatu at a comedy show. Cool 2111 01:55:28.560 --> 01:55:31.399 ass dude he is. When you meet him, he is 2112 01:55:31.520 --> 01:55:33.119 very cool. I had a chance to meet him a 2113 01:55:33.159 --> 01:55:36.479 few times, obviously when he was the House of Glory 2114 01:55:36.520 --> 01:55:41.000 world champion and working for US, and guy, where was 2115 01:55:41.039 --> 01:55:41.520 I when I? 2116 01:55:42.000 --> 01:55:43.760 Oh, I was in Tampa. 2117 01:55:44.279 --> 01:55:45.960 I think I was in Tampa for the Royal Rumble 2118 01:55:46.039 --> 01:55:51.000 last year and him and Zilla were just what is 2119 01:55:51.079 --> 01:55:51.560 that bar? 2120 01:55:52.279 --> 01:55:54.359 God, it's this huge bar. 2121 01:55:54.439 --> 01:55:57.640 It's like right outside of or close by to where 2122 01:55:57.680 --> 01:56:02.399 the stadium is. I guess it would be Tropicana. There 2123 01:56:02.560 --> 01:56:05.600 was a it's like a bar, but it's this huge 2124 01:56:05.640 --> 01:56:08.079 piece of property and they have seating inside and outside. 2125 01:56:08.159 --> 01:56:10.239 God I forgot the name of it. But they were 2126 01:56:10.279 --> 01:56:13.560 just hanging out there. They were just hanging out, you know, 2127 01:56:13.600 --> 01:56:15.680 and everybody was, you know, coming over. He get a 2128 01:56:15.680 --> 01:56:19.279 picture and they were like, yeah, no problem. So yeah, no, 2129 01:56:19.359 --> 01:56:25.920 he's he's super cool. Anyway, you guys hit the uh 2130 01:56:26.479 --> 01:56:31.279 like skull, which is great. So without any further ado, 2131 01:56:31.319 --> 01:56:35.399 you know what time it is. Christopher just subscribed, just 2132 01:56:35.520 --> 01:56:38.520 in time. Christopher is joining us here on the channel. 2133 01:56:38.520 --> 01:56:41.680 He has no idea how fortunate he is, because it 2134 01:56:41.760 --> 01:56:44.279 is time to be the booker. 2135 01:56:45.399 --> 01:56:47.680 Ladies are gentlemen. It is now time. 2136 01:56:47.800 --> 01:56:53.920 Oh yes, the book Oh yes, it is that time. 2137 01:56:54.079 --> 01:56:56.520 It is time to be the booker. 2138 01:56:58.119 --> 01:57:05.600 You're on the night a champion stream. We get one 2139 01:57:05.720 --> 01:57:08.239 round each we gotta make it special, we gotta make 2140 01:57:08.279 --> 01:57:11.560 it count. We didn't have a great one last night, 2141 01:57:11.600 --> 01:57:17.199 so I'm hoping we can have a rebound here. What 2142 01:57:17.239 --> 01:57:19.199 am I adding? Managers to be the booker? I have 2143 01:57:19.399 --> 01:57:21.600 a list of things I have to do as far. 2144 01:57:21.520 --> 01:57:23.840 As updates to be the bookers. 2145 01:57:23.880 --> 01:57:28.960 So a manager's round is definitely on the agenda. 2146 01:57:29.520 --> 01:57:30.399 So stay tuned. 2147 01:57:31.239 --> 01:57:33.760 All right, we're gonna do a tag team match. Love 2148 01:57:33.840 --> 01:57:36.880 me some tag team wrestling, but it all depends on 2149 01:57:36.880 --> 01:57:41.279 what teams you land on. And here we've landed on 2150 01:57:41.319 --> 01:57:43.800 what WWE would tell you is the greatest tag team 2151 01:57:43.800 --> 01:57:47.520 of all time. Now I don't share that opinion, although 2152 01:57:47.520 --> 01:57:54.720 they're pretty good. Jimmy and Jay, the USOS. 2153 01:57:53.600 --> 01:57:55.239 Kicking us off here and be the booker. 2154 01:57:55.399 --> 01:57:59.199 Look at that, Jay Usso, former world heavyweight champion. 2155 01:58:00.119 --> 01:58:00.960 Here and be the booker. 2156 01:58:02.359 --> 01:58:08.960 The USOS against the British Bulldogs. Now that right there, 2157 01:58:09.000 --> 01:58:11.479 I mean you talk about fantasy warfare. You're matching up 2158 01:58:11.640 --> 01:58:15.439 past generation current generation. That's a generational match right there, 2159 01:58:15.479 --> 01:58:21.439 the USOS and the British Bulldogs. That is how you 2160 01:58:21.520 --> 01:58:23.680 open up be the booker. That's what I like to 2161 01:58:23.680 --> 01:58:30.600 see right there. That's why we do this Women's be 2162 01:58:30.640 --> 01:58:36.119 the booker. Awesome Kong, the former TNA Knockouts Champion. Awesome 2163 01:58:36.199 --> 01:58:40.920 Kong help put that division on the map with Gail Kim. 2164 01:58:42.199 --> 01:58:48.600 Many battles those two had. Let's see, Awesome Kong is 2165 01:58:48.640 --> 01:58:53.359 going to be stepping into the ring with Roxane Perez, 2166 01:58:53.439 --> 01:58:58.479 the former NXT Women's Champion. How do you think that 2167 01:58:58.520 --> 01:59:03.439 feud would have been rox Sane like current Roxane Perez 2168 01:59:03.479 --> 01:59:08.479 against Awesome Kong and her prime Prime Kong against Roxanne. 2169 01:59:08.560 --> 01:59:11.159 I actually think those two would probably have a pretty 2170 01:59:11.199 --> 01:59:18.000 killer feud. Honestly, I like how things are going so far. 2171 01:59:19.640 --> 01:59:23.640 This has been going pretty well. Let's end it on 2172 01:59:23.680 --> 01:59:26.520 a high note with our main event. 2173 01:59:29.239 --> 01:59:32.079 Oh my goodness, we have the British Bulldogs and tag 2174 01:59:32.079 --> 01:59:33.920 Team be the booker and in the main event, Davy 2175 01:59:33.960 --> 01:59:36.560 Boy comes back out. He's pulling double duty here because 2176 01:59:36.600 --> 01:59:41.880 we have the British Bulldog, Davy Boy Smith. He's back, 2177 01:59:44.079 --> 01:59:48.520 He's in the main event. Why is he pulling double duty? 2178 01:59:48.560 --> 01:59:51.319 I have two hundred people in this thing. We have 2179 01:59:51.439 --> 02:00:01.439 plenty of people. The British Bulldog we'll be taking on 2180 02:00:02.199 --> 02:00:09.279 who the British Bulldog will be wrestling Jack Perry in 2181 02:00:09.359 --> 02:00:18.399 our main event, and we were really building some momentum 2182 02:00:18.479 --> 02:00:22.680 here and I was really hoping for like a big 2183 02:00:22.720 --> 02:00:25.920 time main event. We just got done watching John Cena 2184 02:00:25.920 --> 02:00:29.439 wrestles Sea. I'm punk. I'm like, we need a main 2185 02:00:29.479 --> 02:00:33.520 event like Ava Caliber. And then we end with the 2186 02:00:33.520 --> 02:00:39.720 British Bulldog and Jack Perry and just like that, clean 2187 02:00:39.800 --> 02:00:45.760 sweet ruined ruined. In the blink of an eye, it's 2188 02:00:45.800 --> 02:00:51.520 all over. Faisal, welcome to the channel. I've led you 2189 02:00:51.560 --> 02:00:55.800 down with that main event. I have sinned. I hope 2190 02:00:55.800 --> 02:01:01.680 you can forgive me. Cry me a river, oh Man, 2191 02:01:04.399 --> 02:01:06.800 dry Chicken says, are you a fan of Jurassic Park 2192 02:01:06.880 --> 02:01:13.359 slash World franchise? I am a fan of I'm a 2193 02:01:13.359 --> 02:01:18.079 fan of Jurassic Park the original I saw. I actually 2194 02:01:18.079 --> 02:01:20.119 never saw the second movie, believe it or not. I 2195 02:01:20.159 --> 02:01:23.880 saw the third one, third or fourth one. It was 2196 02:01:23.920 --> 02:01:27.039 not maybe the third one. It wasn't very good. I 2197 02:01:27.079 --> 02:01:28.439 am going to try to get to the theaters to 2198 02:01:28.479 --> 02:01:30.479 see this new one though. This new one looks interesting, 2199 02:01:31.279 --> 02:01:32.960 so my plan is to try to go to the theater. 2200 02:01:33.000 --> 02:01:35.720 I think it comes out on July second. I would 2201 02:01:35.760 --> 02:01:37.319 like to go to the theater to actually see it. 2202 02:01:37.800 --> 02:01:40.800 So if I see the new movie, I will report back. 2203 02:01:41.000 --> 02:01:42.600 I hope it's not one of these movies where I 2204 02:01:42.640 --> 02:01:45.399 have to have seen the recent ones, because I haven't 2205 02:01:45.439 --> 02:01:48.000 seen the recent ones. But this one looks interesting, so 2206 02:01:48.079 --> 02:01:51.800 I actually might go to the theater and see it. Anyway, 2207 02:01:51.880 --> 02:01:55.279 thank you for hanging out with me in our Night 2208 02:01:55.279 --> 02:01:59.640 of Champions review. Final pl here for the month of June. 2209 02:02:00.079 --> 02:02:02.600 Not the final event though, because we have one more 2210 02:02:02.640 --> 02:02:06.039 live stream here before we go flip the calendar to July. 2211 02:02:06.119 --> 02:02:09.359 That's on Monday. And just remember Raw is airing earlier 2212 02:02:09.399 --> 02:02:12.079 on Netflix, so it's starting at six o'clock Eastern, so 2213 02:02:12.119 --> 02:02:15.239 everything is bumped up two hours. Raw is bumped up 2214 02:02:15.279 --> 02:02:18.600 two hours, and the review is bumped up two hours, 2215 02:02:18.600 --> 02:02:21.159 so figure I will be live on YouTube probably around 2216 02:02:21.239 --> 02:02:21.840 nine o'clock. 2217 02:02:22.399 --> 02:02:23.760 So that is the plan for Monday. 2218 02:02:23.800 --> 02:02:26.720 But before we get to Monday, we have episode nine 2219 02:02:26.760 --> 02:02:29.560 to eighteen of the SoundOff that'll be dropping tomorrow.
