00:10.122 --> 00:10.963
[SPEAKER_00]: Good evening.

00:11.344 --> 00:17.334
[SPEAKER_00]: Hello, welcome to another live edition of the rap right here on the Fiky Media Network YouTube channel.

00:17.675 --> 00:31.739
[SPEAKER_00]: Happy Monday evening to you all as we're back here to recap the highs and lows of Monday and I raw from the world's most famous arena Madison Square Garden as the road to WrestleMania 42 continues.

00:32.200 --> 00:34.864
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm Keela Cash and as you can see tonight,

00:34.844 --> 00:37.868
[SPEAKER_00]: Salty Scott Young is not here this evening.

00:37.908 --> 00:38.709
[SPEAKER_00]: He is out.

00:39.069 --> 00:39.970
[SPEAKER_00]: He is busy.

00:40.251 --> 00:42.754
[SPEAKER_00]: He's making a mula and I appreciate him for it.

00:43.074 --> 00:51.044
[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully he'll be back next week as we're inching closer to WrestleMania Saturday and Sunday, but pitching in tonight is one of my favorite people.

00:51.545 --> 00:57.072
[SPEAKER_00]: And I do love the fact that somehow every year he does sneak his way.

00:57.052 --> 01:02.199
[SPEAKER_00]: on to a WrestleMania related episode of the rap to give us two cents.

01:02.580 --> 01:08.288
[SPEAKER_00]: I love his insights and love his thoughts from the dynamite show, from the fight game media network family.

01:08.388 --> 01:13.496
[SPEAKER_00]: I bring to you the one the only grandpa does, Paul Fontaine.

01:13.556 --> 01:14.457
[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome back Paul.

01:15.078 --> 01:15.439
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.

01:15.459 --> 01:19.725
[SPEAKER_01]: A little bit of salt and pepper, Paul, grandpa does.

01:19.745 --> 01:23.430
[SPEAKER_01]: So with salty Scott, salt and pepper, grandpa, there we go.

01:23.410 --> 01:26.958
[SPEAKER_00]: keeping the salty theme alive, which I appreciate.

01:27.018 --> 01:29.483
[SPEAKER_00]: So Paul is great to have you here this evening.

01:29.543 --> 01:36.919
[SPEAKER_00]: And I want to get your ancillary thoughts on the road to this year's WrestleMania.

01:37.320 --> 01:42.972
[SPEAKER_00]: How you feel about the build so far and your expectations heading into Vegas in a couple of weeks.

01:43.323 --> 02:00.707
[SPEAKER_01]: Well as you may or may not know I am going to be in Vegas, I'm not committed to going to WrestleMania yet although I will say the last couple of weeks has gotten me a lot more interested in the card and you know I'm I want to go I'll say that so I don't want to pay.

02:00.687 --> 02:02.910
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, whatever the cost is right now.

02:02.990 --> 02:07.955
[SPEAKER_01]: So if I can get a good deal on tickets, I definitely will try to find a way to get there.

02:07.975 --> 02:15.945
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going with my son who's 28 and the only other WrestleMania he's ever been to was for his 18th birthday, which is 10 years ago.

02:16.485 --> 02:20.290
[SPEAKER_01]: So it would be kind of cool to do that again, and that was in Dallas.

02:20.310 --> 02:21.231
[SPEAKER_01]: This will be in Vegas.

02:21.291 --> 02:23.253
[SPEAKER_01]: So I've never been in the team.

02:23.353 --> 02:27.538
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, the stadium that they're doing it in, uh, Legion.

02:27.518 --> 02:38.734
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm, you know, but I do think like the saying like a month ago, I was really looking for a enrollment in punk and then pretty much nothing else.

02:39.856 --> 02:52.834
[SPEAKER_01]: And although at that point, we weren't even really sure, you know, like Cody and Roman, like I, you know, I guess we kind of figured out, we did the elimination chamber post game show and that's when, you know, that match was made, but even then we were thinking, well, maybe it'll be a multi person, right?

02:53.455 --> 03:02.290
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, but I thought they've done a really good job building that, uh, Brock and Oba is I think in my opinion is overshadowed everything and that's the one I really want to see.

03:02.310 --> 03:11.245
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and then you've got, you know, Becky and AJ, they've done a really good job with I thought I think and Jacob Fattu and Drew McIntyre.

03:11.225 --> 03:20.118
[SPEAKER_01]: And you know, and some of the other undercard stuff, you know, hasn't been great, but you can't say they haven't built it.

03:20.759 --> 03:24.504
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just whether, you know, how interested you are in like the two women's title matches.

03:25.325 --> 03:29.111
[SPEAKER_01]: That multi women tag team title match that they're building.

03:29.251 --> 03:32.556
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's one that we all saw coming like probably three four months ago.

03:33.016 --> 03:37.603
[SPEAKER_01]: So even though it hasn't officially been announced yet, it's not like it's coming out of the blue.

03:37.583 --> 03:44.471
[SPEAKER_01]: uh, the pentamatch that they made tonight, obviously that's out of the blue and gumped the gumped their Seth match, which we'll talk about.

03:44.491 --> 03:48.335
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that is completely out of the blue, but it's also their hands were kind of forced.

03:48.395 --> 03:50.117
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's good match though.

03:50.397 --> 04:00.949
[SPEAKER_01]: And that, you know, so it's like, it's kind of like one of those AW matches where, you know, like they just announced that the week of the show and it's like, oh, well, I, you know, there's no real reason to care about it, but it's going to be a health match.

04:00.969 --> 04:02.531
[SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of a good third Seth, right?

04:03.172 --> 04:06.055
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's, you know, that's kind of the way I'm looking at all that.

04:06.457 --> 04:12.707
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think that in the last month or so, they've tried to ramp things up, heading into WrestleMania.

04:12.847 --> 04:24.786
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that the trappings of the show has been same location, second year in a row, very high ticket prices that people weren't going to work over until you discounted tickets towards

04:24.766 --> 04:29.392
[SPEAKER_00]: the tell end of WrestleMania season as get closer to the date.

04:29.413 --> 04:31.115
[SPEAKER_00]: You do see those tickets moving a little bit.

04:31.155 --> 04:35.000
[SPEAKER_00]: We have John Cena now being the host of both nights of WrestleMania.

04:35.361 --> 04:42.551
[SPEAKER_00]: We should move those tickets a little bit more, but for all of the build or lack thereof and it's been a lot of slap dash stuff.

04:42.571 --> 04:54.047
[SPEAKER_00]: Some things have been beyond WWE's control in terms of injuries and things

04:54.027 --> 05:19.056
[SPEAKER_00]: Do some redirections here and there have to make some adjustments and I go to a Cody Rhodes said recently during an interview that Bell to Bell this might be one of the best WrestleMania is of all time and if the performers can go out there on both nights and outperform the creative of it all then this could be one of the best man is ever I go back to

05:19.036 --> 05:23.821
[SPEAKER_00]: a very sleeper, WrestleMania, WrestleMania 19 and Seattle back in 2003.

05:24.802 --> 05:29.387
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not regarded as, oh my God, an all-time amazing WrestleMania in terms of hype.

05:29.787 --> 05:34.312
[SPEAKER_00]: But when the show came, when it went down, it was one of the best maniacs ever.

05:34.392 --> 05:45.263
[SPEAKER_00]: So I do foresee when we look back on this maybe five years or two years down the road, this could be one of the best WrestleMania's ever despite the build for this year's show.

05:46.019 --> 05:47.401
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I agree with that.

05:47.441 --> 05:56.675
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's kind of the opposite of what we've had the last few years where, you know, like we've had a great build in a lot of cases and then the card itself hasn't delivered.

05:57.236 --> 05:59.540
[SPEAKER_01]: So perhaps, you know, we'll get the opposite of that.

05:59.620 --> 06:12.600
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think at the end of the day, like when you're looking back on something, you'd rather have the show with the great matches, you know, as opposed to, right now, people are complaining about the build, you know, some people.

06:12.580 --> 06:18.889
[SPEAKER_01]: And but then we may look back at it a couple months later and say, hey, that was one of the better cards of the year.

06:19.270 --> 06:25.940
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, I'll I'll take the latter, you know, in hindsight, but in the lead up, you kind of want that build.

06:26.661 --> 06:32.530
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you want the storytelling to match the build, of course, but if we can get great matches.

06:32.510 --> 06:37.156
[SPEAKER_00]: considering everything we've gone through to get here, I'll take the win as well.

06:37.957 --> 06:46.448
[SPEAKER_00]: And I have to mention this as well before we dive into the meat and potatoes of the episode of Monday and I were all going down from MSG.

06:47.289 --> 06:48.390
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a visual person.

06:48.831 --> 06:50.012
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm all about graphics.

06:50.793 --> 07:00.846
[SPEAKER_00]: And I did read the rumblings about the marketing for this was WrestleMania in terms of how do we promote the show

07:02.075 --> 07:13.028
[SPEAKER_00]: I will say, looking at each match card unveil itself for these individual matches, this show has five different personalities in terms of theme.

07:13.729 --> 07:18.635
[SPEAKER_00]: And it is giving me a lot of, what the hell is this show exactly?

07:19.056 --> 07:20.618
[SPEAKER_00]: What is the aesthetic for this?

07:20.638 --> 07:21.559
[SPEAKER_00]: This is WrestleMania.

07:21.939 --> 07:22.560
[SPEAKER_00]: Is it a pop?

07:22.580 --> 07:23.121
[SPEAKER_00]: Delict?

07:23.241 --> 07:24.202
[SPEAKER_00]: Is it a pop, a lictic?

07:24.563 --> 07:25.984
[SPEAKER_00]: Is it tron?

07:26.445 --> 07:27.306
[SPEAKER_00]: Is it?

07:27.286 --> 07:31.470
[SPEAKER_00]: Mario Brothers Galaxy is at the end of times.

07:31.650 --> 07:33.011
[SPEAKER_00]: What is the theme?

07:33.331 --> 07:37.015
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I see 15 different graphics for this damn shell.

07:38.036 --> 07:45.262
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I kind of noticed that, too, and I'm not really, like, I don't really understand what any of that stuff that you just mentioned even is.

07:45.743 --> 07:49.606
[SPEAKER_01]: I just know looking at it, it's like, okay, this is different.

07:49.626 --> 07:57.073
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, why is there a different style graphic for Rhea and Jade,

07:57.053 --> 08:00.736
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like I don't I don't understand normally it's all going to be the same.

08:00.896 --> 08:22.015
[SPEAKER_01]: So I my guess is probably all sponsorship times somehow and they're going to maximize if they can get a match that's presented to you by this company and brought to you by that company and and then you know like in the theme of this company and gets you know and get like money from all three of those for every single match.

08:22.175 --> 08:25.238
[SPEAKER_01]: They don't figure out a way to do that.

08:26.197 --> 08:29.866
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, it's assaulting my eyes in a lot of city.

08:29.946 --> 08:32.933
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a lot to take in and they need to fix this.

08:32.953 --> 08:34.356
[SPEAKER_00]: Last year was very simple.

08:34.798 --> 08:44.661
[SPEAKER_00]: Carts, poker, there you go, blackjack, playing cards, graphics, they automated, lovely, this year.

08:44.641 --> 08:48.265
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what's going on graphically speaking, but we move.

08:48.465 --> 08:52.249
[SPEAKER_00]: I will try to find a way to get through this as well.

08:52.650 --> 08:58.516
[SPEAKER_00]: But I cannot wait until the noted Emmy Award nominated unreal.

08:59.677 --> 09:00.958
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't believe I'm saying this.

09:01.039 --> 09:04.702
[SPEAKER_00]: It is nominated for three sports Emmys.

09:05.223 --> 09:06.124
[SPEAKER_00]: They might win.

09:06.644 --> 09:08.086
[SPEAKER_00]: Very strong possibility.

09:08.106 --> 09:09.728
[SPEAKER_00]: Can you imagine Paul Levec?

09:10.228 --> 09:11.830
[SPEAKER_00]: Emmy Award winner.

09:12.502 --> 09:24.900
[SPEAKER_00]: celebrating this road to WrestleMania for next year because Lord knows this is going to be a tale to end all tales outstanding achievement in documentary filmmaking.

09:24.940 --> 09:25.982
[SPEAKER_01]: I think is what they call it.

09:26.403 --> 09:29.567
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, that's a series talk you mentioned.

09:29.868 --> 09:36.197
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what we're doing because that that that shows as big of a work is the one we just watched.

09:36.177 --> 09:39.003
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's not a document.

09:39.323 --> 09:39.624
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on.

09:39.684 --> 09:47.559
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, see Paul their their out is serialized it is a serialized documentary series.

09:47.579 --> 09:53.511
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, but what we heard from Rebecca Quinn and Kobe Lopez so that that's why it's a documentary.

09:53.491 --> 10:03.523
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, we hear their government name so therefore it's real and it's a long form and they've done a great job editing and putting it together, but I've really hit the prophecy.

10:04.004 --> 10:11.053
[SPEAKER_00]: I said one day, WWE would get Disney money and now they're getting nominated for it is really has happened.

10:11.894 --> 10:20.224
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and poor Vince is, oh, sorry, Voldemort is on the sidelines, crying to fit because he didn't get the Emmy.

10:20.457 --> 10:23.160
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I know Kevin Dunes having a fit right now too.

10:23.180 --> 10:26.504
[SPEAKER_00]: Like all of my camera jumps and cuts didn't get me this.

10:26.745 --> 10:28.046
[SPEAKER_01]: No, sorry.

10:28.366 --> 10:29.468
[SPEAKER_01]: Who's the guy, a leaf fitting.

10:29.548 --> 10:31.190
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a guy that's finally going to bring him there.

10:31.210 --> 10:32.251
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, he got the free.

10:32.271 --> 10:33.152
[SPEAKER_01]: It's PN2, right?

10:33.453 --> 10:36.076
[SPEAKER_01]: Or it didn't you make up like what he did.

10:36.256 --> 10:36.917
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he did.

10:36.957 --> 10:41.402
[SPEAKER_00]: He made up names and then he had to basically listen all the awards.

10:41.382 --> 10:47.268
[SPEAKER_02]: He just, so we're going to get all these like WWE Hall of Famers are going to get credit for these.

10:47.288 --> 10:49.170
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, they don't even have anything to do with the show.

10:49.210 --> 10:50.251
[SPEAKER_02]: Exactly.

10:50.732 --> 10:51.733
[SPEAKER_00]: Really got him, got him.

10:52.634 --> 10:55.577
[SPEAKER_00]: Just getting producer credits for no reason that actually happened.

10:55.617 --> 10:56.417
[SPEAKER_00]: I read the article.

10:56.437 --> 10:57.959
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, dude, are you for real?

10:58.620 --> 10:58.920
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

10:59.100 --> 11:00.261
[SPEAKER_00]: He actually did that.

11:00.281 --> 11:03.264
[SPEAKER_00]: So hopefully he's not doing that in WWE.

11:03.284 --> 11:07.008
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe he's a squallify from being in the running for these awards.

11:07.429 --> 11:09.651
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe possibly maybe.

11:09.800 --> 11:12.563
[SPEAKER_00]: Alrighty, so let's get to some WWE talk.

11:12.623 --> 11:14.445
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk about tonight's Monday and I roll.

11:14.825 --> 11:38.068
[SPEAKER_00]: Going down from MSG in New York City, we kick things off with the American Nightmare, the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, and he wants to talk about what Randy Orton's been talking about recently, but he's immediately interrupted by a future, WWE Hall of Famer, Stephanie McMahon of all people, and even Cody's like, what the hell are you doing out here?

11:38.048 --> 11:49.603
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, uh, why here now interrupting my promo and she talks about, hey, I'm a part of a famous family.

11:49.703 --> 11:50.604
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a McMahon.

11:50.985 --> 11:56.171
[SPEAKER_00]: My grandfather built this arena really did he because I think it predated and seen your senior.

11:56.772 --> 11:57.373
[SPEAKER_00]: But, uh,

11:57.353 --> 11:59.417
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'll let it slide in this instance.

11:59.878 --> 12:12.645
[SPEAKER_00]: So if you talked about being a kid in the crowd and nobody's like to be a generational talent to be from a famous family that her and code in Randy can all relate to this, but what Randy

12:12.912 --> 12:20.439
[SPEAKER_00]: can relate to is being vicious, being diabolical, being evil, can Cody relate to that.

12:20.479 --> 12:21.880
[SPEAKER_00]: Can he get down in dirty?

12:22.161 --> 12:26.124
[SPEAKER_00]: Can he tap into his dark side to face this Randy or an in WrestleMania?

12:26.445 --> 12:28.266
[SPEAKER_00]: And Stephanie says, I don't think you can do it.

12:28.567 --> 12:31.590
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, you father, dust your road, so he can get down in dirty with the best of them.

12:31.610 --> 12:34.452
[SPEAKER_00]: He can get really grimy when need be.

12:34.933 --> 12:36.414
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think you have that in you.

12:37.015 --> 12:40.658
[SPEAKER_00]: And Cody says, listen, I know what I gotta do.

12:40.638 --> 12:43.322
[SPEAKER_00]: I know Randy Horton for a very long time.

12:43.763 --> 12:50.152
[SPEAKER_00]: I was his babysitter when he was julling in the backseat of a car, when he couldn't have his issues together all these years ago.

12:50.452 --> 12:52.696
[SPEAKER_00]: So I know what it's like to be the student.

12:53.136 --> 12:54.739
[SPEAKER_00]: I know what it's like to be the teacher.

12:54.899 --> 13:00.567
[SPEAKER_00]: I know what it's like to be in this moment of main eventing Ressa Mania multiple times.

13:01.268 --> 13:05.174
[SPEAKER_00]: And you can say that I'm not like my father was Stephanie.

13:05.534 --> 13:07.978
[SPEAKER_00]: You're definitely not like your father.

13:07.958 --> 13:09.784
[SPEAKER_00]: you're not when the same either.

13:09.824 --> 13:10.887
[SPEAKER_00]: That's it.

13:10.907 --> 13:12.051
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, thank you, Cody.

13:14.158 --> 13:17.749
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, she didn't know she didn't instead.

13:18.286 --> 13:40.497
[SPEAKER_00]: We got an oon off of the crowd at that mere subliminal message and then Stephanie proceeds to give him the weakest lap that I've seen from her in a very long time like girl that did not land at all that fires Cody up and he's basically like thank you thank you thank you for your advice I will take that the heart and

13:41.388 --> 13:45.013
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought this was very odd, but I will say this.

13:45.754 --> 13:52.164
[SPEAKER_00]: Stephanie has intimate knowledge of what Randy Orden can do as Cody alluded to.

13:52.204 --> 13:57.131
[SPEAKER_00]: Some of the stuff Randy has done, we can't show y'all on WWE programming.

13:57.372 --> 13:59.054
[SPEAKER_00]: You're gonna have to look it up on YouTube.

13:59.335 --> 14:07.767
[SPEAKER_00]: So I like that leaning into the history of that in May since it's better than jelly roll providing inspiration to Cody at this point in time.

14:08.337 --> 14:28.303
[SPEAKER_01]: yeah it was it was weird like I like stuff so I was you know when she came out I was like oh this is cool you know I wasn't expecting it and um and you know she's you know she's she can kind of good promo even though even if the material is in great like her delivery usually is so that's fine that this was bizarre like I don't really

14:28.283 --> 14:51.507
[SPEAKER_01]: Unless like that's who Randy's been talking to on the phone and the funny thing is is like on the figure four wrestling wrestling wrestling is over com message board there's like a thread going on with you know like who's on the phone and everyone's put just putting up these random pictures of people on the phone you know as jokes and I actually put one up with Stephanie McMahon today.

14:51.487 --> 15:20.312
[SPEAKER_01]: like before like this is this morning and I was you know as a joke like it's like but then you know like there's more than one royal family she's bringing up family you know like um it wouldn't it be closer to the worst than the best but it wouldn't be the worst in the world like obviously there have to be something else to it as well like and maybe triple age like maybe maybe uh you know like you're gonna do some some sort of offshoot of the corporate thing again

15:20.748 --> 15:27.077
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I don't know, or, or again, like, you know, because I don't know who Randy's been talking to, but it's got to be something big.

15:27.678 --> 15:29.581
[SPEAKER_01]: They didn't really lean into that at all, though.

15:29.681 --> 15:30.582
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know.

15:30.622 --> 15:41.798
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, it almost, when it was all said and done, it almost came off, like, the exact question like Cody asked her when she first came out was the reason why she was out there.

15:41.818 --> 15:43.260
[SPEAKER_01]: It was like, yeah, we're at MSG.

15:43.280 --> 15:45.203
[SPEAKER_01]: So I thought I'd be cold to do a promo here.

15:45.487 --> 16:01.243
[SPEAKER_01]: Like that's almost like what at the end of it it all came out because I don't really think we got any further in the story at all Based on on all of this other than I did like the call back to you know her stopping dusty And then you know, Desi got fired like right after that.

16:01.483 --> 16:11.173
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, and I think the reason the stop was later is because like stuff he was giving people concussions with the So can't really be doing that to your WrestleMania main event or

16:11.153 --> 16:18.664
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah, herner has been both today, where we're like getting in the middle of WrestleMania main event or so.

16:18.684 --> 16:20.767
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was, it was, it was odd.

16:20.787 --> 16:24.332
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it'll get people talking for sure, but again, I'm not really sure.

16:24.372 --> 16:33.565
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought they've done a really good job the last month or so with Cody and Randy, and this was maybe the weakest thing they've done since the match was made.

16:34.487 --> 16:34.587
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

16:34.627 --> 16:34.988
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

16:35.408 --> 16:35.649
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

16:36.149 --> 16:38.072
[SPEAKER_01]: But we got to see staff, so that was cool.

16:38.373 --> 16:39.916
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I enjoy stuff too.

16:40.056 --> 16:43.102
[SPEAKER_00]: If the material is hitting, I'm here for it.

16:43.362 --> 16:45.807
[SPEAKER_00]: And in spots it was, it was for sure.

16:45.827 --> 16:52.079
[SPEAKER_00]: And at other points, I just wondered why you here, because it was a little perplexing.

16:52.480 --> 17:01.056
[SPEAKER_00]: But we do have insight into the voices and that she did mention that Randy Orton is listening to a specific voice.

17:01.036 --> 17:04.267
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, they're going to be teasing this up into WrestleMania.

17:04.407 --> 17:10.247
[SPEAKER_00]: I presume that we're going to figure out who is this mysterious voice that Randy is listening to.

17:11.732 --> 17:13.999
[SPEAKER_00]: Could it be Dwayne?

17:14.671 --> 17:35.886
[SPEAKER_00]: to play into everything from last year, because if they can get him for next year's WrestleMania and we know if Saudimania is a go, we know that gotta get the biggest names, you can possibly get for this show and you do have Colony versus Rock right there and if Randy's talking to him, that is your one,

17:35.866 --> 17:49.822
[SPEAKER_00]: option that you can go with if it's not that you can always go what the plan be they can make up on the day of the show if necessary because I do want who else could you possibly have in this role as the voice that Randy is listening to.

17:50.903 --> 17:52.545
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm kind of like Cody.

17:52.605 --> 17:55.488
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, rock would be the best one if they could do it.

17:55.649 --> 18:04.759
[SPEAKER_01]: I know he's filming Jumanji right now, so I'm not even sure if he could actually

18:05.431 --> 18:12.282
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, but I've also heard rumblings lately that he may be going back to W after all this, so like who knows.

18:13.103 --> 18:19.633
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and then the only, you know, my very first thought was Rick Flair and I don't want to really want to see that.

18:19.954 --> 18:21.556
[SPEAKER_00]: I know, um, yeah.

18:21.757 --> 18:29.829
[SPEAKER_01]: So I mean, and you know, and then you know, it could be like, you know, triple H and or Stephanie McMahon, you know, as part of the whole corporate thing.

18:30.049 --> 18:31.692
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, I don't know.

18:31.672 --> 18:37.615
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I, if I put money on it, I'd say it's Jericho right now, that that's what I'm going to say.

18:38.219 --> 18:39.180
[SPEAKER_00]: interesting choice.

18:39.881 --> 18:44.747
[SPEAKER_00]: My one choice that I would not want to see would be Shane McMahon, Lord, no.

18:45.207 --> 18:53.857
[SPEAKER_00]: So the sooner we find out who it is, who they care for, who is willing to come in, who can come in in terms of availability, we shall see.

18:53.957 --> 18:56.360
[SPEAKER_00]: But an intriguing way to start the show.

18:56.400 --> 19:06.572
[SPEAKER_00]: As we get to our Champion Show match of the night for the world-tacting titles,

19:06.552 --> 19:13.400
[SPEAKER_00]: versus divisions, awesome theory, and Logan Paul in a street fight for those tag team titles.

19:13.940 --> 19:21.949
[SPEAKER_00]: So Paul, your thoughts on the remixed version of the Uso steam song because deal Lord why I just hated it.

19:22.009 --> 19:24.312
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know why they did this with them.

19:24.352 --> 19:26.454
[SPEAKER_01]: They did it with Stephanie Vicarre not too long ago.

19:26.474 --> 19:28.717
[SPEAKER_01]: I wife takes what is in broken.

19:29.017 --> 19:29.898
[SPEAKER_01]: That's all I gotta say.

19:30.139 --> 19:31.480
[SPEAKER_01]: Like it's dumb.

19:31.460 --> 19:33.004
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just ridiculous.

19:33.064 --> 19:36.052
[SPEAKER_00]: Just go out there and eat if that's what you want to do.

19:36.152 --> 19:46.077
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's not do like or go to the like the original you so like, you know, Yeah, it's down since day one is down since you know, like just do that.

19:46.647 --> 19:47.108
[SPEAKER_00]: It's easy.

19:47.268 --> 19:47.849
[SPEAKER_00]: It's right there.

19:48.551 --> 19:51.576
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, why am I with CFOs now?

19:51.736 --> 19:52.478
[SPEAKER_00]: What's going on?

19:53.199 --> 19:56.064
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, Lord, so I hope this had a trend alert of them.

19:56.125 --> 19:57.968
[SPEAKER_00]: Just getting rid of all the CFO songs.

19:58.309 --> 19:58.669
[SPEAKER_00]: Please.

19:58.910 --> 20:03.819
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, I will say like I got mad when they changed Becky's music.

20:03.959 --> 20:06.263
[SPEAKER_01]: I knew why to hatch and I'm kind of into that music now.

20:06.544 --> 20:09.870
[SPEAKER_01]: So I mean, maybe I'll get into this, but

20:09.850 --> 20:10.832
[SPEAKER_01]: wouldn't put money on it.

20:11.392 --> 20:12.654
[SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no.

20:13.055 --> 20:13.836
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not very good.

20:13.936 --> 20:15.379
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm never going to buy this ever.

20:15.499 --> 20:19.165
[SPEAKER_00]: So they don't have to worry about me jumping and driving a WrestleMania.

20:19.265 --> 20:20.046
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm good with that.

20:20.707 --> 20:25.435
[SPEAKER_00]: So I am looking at an update from Lady B. Oh, yeah.

20:25.455 --> 20:27.538
[SPEAKER_00]: So she has scoops.

20:27.518 --> 20:45.240
[SPEAKER_00]: She says the rock posted on IG tonight, if they wrapped on Jamanji's soul, time will tell unless we're sexy at him on lock next to film.

20:46.368 --> 20:47.189
[SPEAKER_00]: He might be.

20:47.309 --> 20:49.693
[SPEAKER_01]: It just depends on his relatability.

20:50.955 --> 20:54.921
[SPEAKER_01]: The worst thing I've ever seen on network television that he was a part of.

20:55.061 --> 20:56.464
[SPEAKER_01]: That was just aired last week.

20:56.904 --> 20:57.946
[SPEAKER_01]: It was no my goodness.

20:57.966 --> 20:58.387
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, bad.

20:59.108 --> 21:02.353
[SPEAKER_01]: It was, it was called Martin Scorsese presents the Saints.

21:02.733 --> 21:09.304
[SPEAKER_01]: Apology, say anyone who is a fan of that garbage, but I look like something that I just saw in Sunday school.

21:09.624 --> 21:13.470
[SPEAKER_01]: Which is great for Sunday school, but it's not on network television.

21:13.490 --> 21:14.772
[SPEAKER_01]: I should not want to.

21:14.752 --> 21:15.695
[SPEAKER_01]: Anyways, sorry.

21:15.835 --> 21:18.082
[SPEAKER_01]: I saw his name and I got I got set off.

21:18.103 --> 21:18.825
[SPEAKER_01]: You got trigger.

21:18.945 --> 21:19.708
[SPEAKER_01]: I am so sorry.

21:19.748 --> 21:27.833
[SPEAKER_01]: My apologies, but yeah, but that I posted about it in the in the district in the TV.

21:28.083 --> 21:31.128
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that is a scoop that the rock is wrapped shaman.

21:31.168 --> 21:31.348
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

21:31.388 --> 21:33.872
[SPEAKER_00]: He's done Marana, the live action version.

21:34.232 --> 21:36.035
[SPEAKER_00]: That's another project that's done.

21:36.135 --> 21:42.144
[SPEAKER_01]: So he might find the time to just do a phony and promo to like a literal phone and promo.

21:42.164 --> 21:43.246
[SPEAKER_01]: They could have a big screen.

21:43.706 --> 21:45.048
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, cinematic style.

21:45.489 --> 21:47.853
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Cody's on our randies on the phone.

21:47.873 --> 21:49.555
[SPEAKER_01]: And then, oh, we get the big screen.

21:49.575 --> 21:51.999
[SPEAKER_01]: And oh, there's, you know, let's scroll up.

21:52.459 --> 21:54.883
[SPEAKER_01]: And there's the way in on the phone.

21:54.863 --> 21:58.788
[SPEAKER_01]: So they told me something he would do absolutely to be a troll.

21:58.988 --> 22:00.530
[SPEAKER_00]: So back to the match at hand.

22:00.550 --> 22:02.792
[SPEAKER_00]: It was all right for what it was.

22:02.852 --> 22:06.256
[SPEAKER_00]: Ellie and that was on commentary trying to intervene if need to be.

22:06.297 --> 22:12.264
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I show speed who's been cursed by Dan House and recently was in the crowd with the Logan Paul's mother.

22:12.704 --> 22:16.028
[SPEAKER_00]: So Logan Paul is going to use his mom.

22:16.430 --> 22:21.783
[SPEAKER_00]: Mom has brass nuts that she's going to smuggle to her son to knock out one of the usos.

22:22.304 --> 22:25.813
[SPEAKER_00]: I show speed is trying to be the voice of reason saying, please don't do this.

22:26.174 --> 22:27.116
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't have to cheat.

22:27.477 --> 22:32.970
[SPEAKER_00]: And so when we have LA night trying to intervene in this

22:32.950 --> 22:34.412
[SPEAKER_00]: brass nucks battle.

22:34.452 --> 22:41.823
[SPEAKER_00]: Logan Paul drags eye show speed over the barricade onto the floor and the brass nucks goes to eye show speed.

22:42.444 --> 22:48.873
[SPEAKER_00]: And because of Danhausen's curse, he is going to accidentally knock out LA night with brass nucks.

22:48.893 --> 22:49.714
[SPEAKER_00]: He freaks out.

22:49.734 --> 22:53.760
[SPEAKER_00]: He runs away and he conveniently lays the brass nucks on the map.

22:53.800 --> 23:02.653
[SPEAKER_00]: Logan Paul to get, he loads up his hand at one point knocks out Jimmy Uso,

23:02.633 --> 23:14.850
[SPEAKER_00]: Austin Theory to drag his carcass over onto the dead K-Fabling body of Jimi Uso to become the new world tag team champions.

23:15.571 --> 23:20.338
[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome to my personal hell heading into this year's WrestleMania.

23:21.095 --> 23:34.510
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I thought the match was actually, you know, it was going long pretty good until they got to the last couple minutes and the screw job that they, you know, have to do to get to where, you know, the finish was going to be, I don't know what this sets up for Mania.

23:34.530 --> 23:42.438
[SPEAKER_01]: If I had to guess, I'd assume maybe like a six man, where I show speeds going to team up with the vision and then Ellie night's going to team up with the Usos.

23:43.820 --> 23:48.385
[SPEAKER_01]: That's just kind of like a throwing match, but, you know, what else are you going to do?

23:50.710 --> 23:54.595
[SPEAKER_01]: I, yeah, I get, I show speed has been around the last few weeks.

23:54.615 --> 23:56.037
[SPEAKER_01]: So I assume he's involved somehow.

23:56.678 --> 24:03.928
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, he's been putting in work at the Performance Center, getting primed for a match, presumably at WrestleMania.

24:04.389 --> 24:11.298
[SPEAKER_00]: As Kerry had comes in asking Paul one of life-sprey questions in the live chat and Paul answers accordingly.

24:11.378 --> 24:14.322
[SPEAKER_01]: So I appreciate he's got a moonshine in Vegas.

24:16.529 --> 24:20.378
[SPEAKER_00]: I love it as you guys hang out and you're ready for this show in a few weeks time.

24:20.418 --> 24:27.815
[SPEAKER_00]: So basically we have them in the tag team titles for them not to defend the tag team titles at a restaurant.

24:28.296 --> 24:35.432
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, unless like, you know, I suppose they could do like a unification match with priest and, uh, and truth.

24:35.412 --> 24:46.127
[SPEAKER_01]: That would be probably like on the Mania after raw or the SmackDown before Mania, I don't think that would be an actual Mania match, but it's the only other thing I can think of.

24:46.627 --> 25:03.310
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what the deal, like why they need belts and less, you know, maybe, you know, brawn is going to be back at some point and then they'll try to get a belt on him and then they could all have belts, I don't know.

25:03.762 --> 25:05.125
[SPEAKER_00]: make zero sense.

25:05.185 --> 25:12.882
[SPEAKER_00]: I just know that once upon a time, I had a dream that it would be the Usos versus the literature brothers of WrestleMania that ain't happening.

25:13.523 --> 25:15.387
[SPEAKER_00]: And I can put that to rest now.

25:15.929 --> 25:19.877
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe it would happen and extra WrestleMania won't be this year.

25:19.957 --> 25:23.425
[SPEAKER_00]: I can put the pin on that right now and say what's not happening.

25:23.405 --> 25:26.888
[SPEAKER_00]: in a couple of weeks time at Mania, but Pinto will be represented.

25:27.249 --> 25:28.790
[SPEAKER_00]: We're talking about him in just a moment.

25:29.131 --> 25:33.155
[SPEAKER_00]: But let's get to live Morgan calling out Stephanie Vicarre.

25:33.195 --> 25:36.899
[SPEAKER_00]: And this feud, it's on site.

25:36.919 --> 25:39.141
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what Liv says anytime you want to talk about me.

25:39.161 --> 25:41.303
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, it's on site.

25:41.323 --> 25:43.125
[SPEAKER_00]: You touch my family, it's on site.

25:43.145 --> 25:45.847
[SPEAKER_00]: You touch, if you touch Daddy, Dom is on site.

25:45.948 --> 25:46.648
[SPEAKER_00]: It's on site.

25:47.009 --> 25:50.612
[SPEAKER_00]: So Stephanie, taking that mantra heart, goes after Liv Morgan.

25:50.712 --> 25:51.793
[SPEAKER_00]: I do love their scraps.

25:51.894 --> 25:53.395
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they lay it in.

25:53.375 --> 25:54.457
[SPEAKER_00]: is physical.

25:54.517 --> 25:59.446
[SPEAKER_00]: You can really tell they are really putting their all into the physicality aspect of this feud.

25:59.767 --> 26:04.375
[SPEAKER_00]: You feel the emotion and you feel the K-fay paper between them, which I appreciate.

26:04.475 --> 26:16.918
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Roxanne Perez comes back on behalf of Liv Morgan to go after Stephanie and they lay her out with a blivey and on the still chair and the heel stand tall to wrap up this segment.

26:16.898 --> 26:22.727
[SPEAKER_00]: I would love more verbal back and forth between the two of them to build their restomania story a bit more.

26:23.068 --> 26:40.054
[SPEAKER_00]: But I will say that in terms of going out there, maximizing their minutes, putting as much hot sauce as they can on this match, they've done a really good job and I think they will have one of the better most heated matches for whatever night of restomania they land on.

26:40.726 --> 26:43.432
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think I talked about this.

26:43.572 --> 26:57.925
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it was with Garrett and I said like you probably want to keep this match away from the the Becky AJ match like you have them on different nights because I don't think you want this overshining that one.

26:57.905 --> 27:17.112
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I think it can and so like maybe even have the two women's title matches on the same show I normally they wouldn't do that, but I think in this case it might make sense to do that just because I don't think the Jade Maria match is going to be long and and you this can be an actual long match and almost something of a show stealer because both those women can really go.

27:17.092 --> 27:25.422
[SPEAKER_01]: And I did like live getting in some promo in Spanish, where she talked about her mom.

27:25.622 --> 27:26.443
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what she said.

27:26.503 --> 27:29.467
[SPEAKER_01]: They didn't translate it, but that's what got Stephanie out there.

27:29.547 --> 27:31.149
[SPEAKER_01]: So it must have been not nice.

27:31.749 --> 27:36.835
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, it was, like I said, I do look, I'm like you.

27:36.855 --> 27:38.698
[SPEAKER_01]: I like the physicality between them.

27:39.118 --> 27:40.720
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot of intensity.

27:41.071 --> 27:49.947
[SPEAKER_01]: I do feel I'm a little bit worried that the fans are going to turn on Stephanie and Vegas and they'll be like popping for live if she wins the title.

27:51.250 --> 27:57.221
[SPEAKER_01]: But maybe they know that and they're okay with that because oh, she called her mama or wow.

27:57.261 --> 27:58.523
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

27:58.503 --> 27:59.244
[SPEAKER_01]: That's not nice.

27:59.804 --> 28:02.367
[SPEAKER_01]: No, that's why Stephanie came out there.

28:02.387 --> 28:06.371
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a, I mean, it could be true, like, but I didn't, I don't know.

28:06.471 --> 28:13.478
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know her mom, but, um, but even if it is, you don't need to tell people now.

28:14.559 --> 28:21.886
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, now you're reminding me of Nikita Lyons on NXT 2.0 when she proudly set her mom was a groupie.

28:22.667 --> 28:24.088
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, well,

28:24.068 --> 28:47.494
[SPEAKER_01]: that's a badge of honor you want to have so we we my family and I went to Cuba a few like years and years ago like for it was for a 20th anniversary and we just had our 35th and so so and we there was like a woman who is you know she was a lady of the night and she had a daughter and our kids were playing with her daughter while she was

28:47.677 --> 28:48.118
[SPEAKER_01]: working.

28:48.939 --> 28:54.727
[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, and then, so we were saying when we were planning to go back to Cuba this year, it's like, oh, maybe her daughter's a hornel.

28:55.348 --> 29:01.758
[SPEAKER_01]: And so when I'm in my pocket, you know, you never know, it's family business.

29:04.922 --> 29:07.386
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what you're going to get when you get me on the show.

29:08.087 --> 29:08.908
[SPEAKER_00]: You know,

29:08.888 --> 29:19.932
[SPEAKER_00]: I know I never know what I'm going to get, but I have to rely on curry head to provide me some levity, but asking a very serious question to get this back on track.

29:20.633 --> 29:24.602
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you feel like the booking of WrestleMania feels too rushed?

29:26.607 --> 29:35.517
[SPEAKER_00]: Tonight, they definitely threw some things out there that was abrupt, I will say, because they like, we have very limited time.

29:35.557 --> 29:42.505
[SPEAKER_00]: For example, that ladder match for the icy title, qualifying matches, we did imaginary about some main event.

29:42.986 --> 29:43.166
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

29:43.186 --> 29:45.068
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I watch made of it every week.

29:45.228 --> 29:46.390
[SPEAKER_01]: It's never been mentioned.

29:47.050 --> 29:50.494
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, all those people have one matches in a couple of weeks.

29:50.554 --> 29:53.938
[SPEAKER_01]: So, I mean, this is like a W retconning here.

29:54.479 --> 29:56.361
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

29:56.341 --> 30:01.834
[SPEAKER_01]: using native and the commentary to pretend that they were qualifying matches.

30:02.315 --> 30:09.051
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, the fact that in the year 2026, we're using main event as canon.

30:09.537 --> 30:14.423
[SPEAKER_00]: can and to say we have booked a five way for this championship match.

30:14.683 --> 30:19.449
[SPEAKER_00]: We had a series of qualifying matches on main event that we don't advertise in advance.

30:19.469 --> 30:21.151
[SPEAKER_00]: So let you know, this is what we came up with.

30:21.572 --> 30:29.882
[SPEAKER_00]: They tried it, but hey, they said it's better than us running through these lame ass tournament matches on television, heading into WrestleMania.

30:30.362 --> 30:32.004
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's just get it out the way right now.

30:32.765 --> 30:34.347
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know what?

30:35.086 --> 30:51.036
[SPEAKER_01]: It's roughly no no no no because Tony commoner just announced the match and we wouldn't even know who's in it until the match starts Because we had a 21 man battle royal in the last paper view that we didn't know anybody that was in that match

30:51.016 --> 30:52.679
[SPEAKER_01]: including the person who won.

30:53.860 --> 30:54.942
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, no, no.

30:55.062 --> 30:59.529
[SPEAKER_01]: And okay, so his original question, it doesn't feel too rushed.

30:59.549 --> 31:04.757
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, obviously the Gunther, Seth Match and the Pentamatch were just thrown out there this week.

31:05.378 --> 31:07.602
[SPEAKER_01]: That said, it is three weeks away.

31:09.044 --> 31:11.808
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like this was the first week, so we have two more weeks to build.

31:12.529 --> 31:17.597
[SPEAKER_01]: And so it's not like they did this on the Go Home show, and it's not like we don't have

31:17.577 --> 31:44.108
[SPEAKER_01]: what eight to ten other matches that they have been building that you know that they so yeah like I would say it's only rushed in the sense that if you you know if you knew you know if you're reading the Wrestling Observer or Fight Fuller wherever you get your wrestling scoops from in January and you're looking at potential WrestleMania cards and maybe like a lot of these matches weren't on there you would say okay the you know it's rushed

31:44.088 --> 32:00.720
[SPEAKER_01]: But if you're just watching and you're like a normal fan who just watches every week, like I don't think most of the card has been rushed like, you know, we've known about Oben Brock since rumble, we've known about Becky and AJ since like what survivor series, maybe even before that.

32:02.203 --> 32:06.872
[SPEAKER_01]: Rea and the rea match and the Cody match, that's been since elimination chamber.

32:07.207 --> 32:30.379
[SPEAKER_01]: Cody and Roman, we've known about since the rumble, so I mean, you know, like most of these matches, if I had a lot of build, it's just filling out the card that has been, you know, the stuff that's been kind of thrown together, but even some of that, you know, like the multi-women's match, like that one, you know, like we've kind of had an idea that this was probably going to happen for a month now.

32:30.359 --> 32:36.753
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, as Trick and Sammy has been one that they've been God since Trick been called up to the main roster.

32:36.773 --> 32:38.477
[SPEAKER_01]: They probably interacted every single week.

32:39.299 --> 32:44.209
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, I'm I know I don't think it's been rushed.

32:44.229 --> 32:47.777
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, but you know obviously a couple of the matches that they added tonight were.

32:48.415 --> 33:03.437
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think overall they've had like an idea of where they want to things to go and they just threw some things out there tonight and lightning speed to say here you go, let's do it and I'm like, okay.

33:03.417 --> 33:04.038
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's go.

33:04.518 --> 33:05.799
[SPEAKER_00]: You want to just get us there?

33:05.839 --> 33:06.700
[SPEAKER_00]: Fine.

33:06.740 --> 33:09.683
[SPEAKER_00]: You still have two weeks, to sell me a couple of things.

33:10.304 --> 33:11.105
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm all set.

33:11.145 --> 33:16.450
[SPEAKER_00]: And Curry had once to clarify, what I mean by this is we know the major matches.

33:16.490 --> 33:20.354
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm talking about the rest of the card feels like destroying it together last minute.

33:20.414 --> 33:23.277
[SPEAKER_00]: And what I mean last minute, I mean WWE last minute.

33:23.918 --> 33:28.783
[SPEAKER_00]: And tonight, I do feel like for instance,

33:28.763 --> 33:49.236
[SPEAKER_00]: From home together, I don't know where Gunther and Seth Rown together because probably they got the medicals and bond break or some time today and they said he was a no go and then you have to go with what you now have, which is Gunther versus Seth at WrestleMania, but by and large, I think that everything else has had a destination to get to where we needed to go.

33:49.216 --> 33:56.926
[SPEAKER_00]: It does feel a little bit rushed tonight, especially, but they have two weeks to release the mitts and things get it nailed down.

33:56.946 --> 34:01.672
[SPEAKER_00]: And there are still some outlying matches that still need to be booked for WrestleMania.

34:01.712 --> 34:07.239
[SPEAKER_00]: The Usos, I show speed, the vision, winning the tag team titles LA night.

34:07.259 --> 34:11.224
[SPEAKER_00]: They're trying to fit as many people on the hardest possible.

34:11.204 --> 34:11.765
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

34:11.945 --> 34:12.606
[SPEAKER_00]: That too.

34:13.047 --> 34:18.314
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's like they have to basically make sure you have enough matches for both nights.

34:18.655 --> 34:25.384
[SPEAKER_00]: They might go eight and eight, which I'm totally fine with to fill out the cards for both nights and especially hour one.

34:25.725 --> 34:30.391
[SPEAKER_00]: How do you want to present that to ESPN to and the mothership for a night too as well?

34:30.471 --> 34:39.304
[SPEAKER_00]: So they have some tickering to do, but by and large, I'll

34:39.892 --> 34:42.235
[SPEAKER_00]: were advertised and they were made official.

34:43.277 --> 34:50.006
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I think he's going to create his actual speech in a team with Thanos.

34:50.026 --> 34:52.729
[SPEAKER_01]: I think if anything, they'd be on opposite teams.

34:52.829 --> 34:56.494
[SPEAKER_01]: But I hope that Thanos is not going to wrestle.

34:56.514 --> 34:57.035
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think I don't.

34:57.336 --> 35:00.139
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd rather see, I'd show his feed wrestle in Thanos and be honest with you.

35:00.159 --> 35:03.604
[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, yeah, I'm

35:04.090 --> 35:10.518
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I agree with everything you just said there and yeah, I'm I'm fine with the build.

35:10.538 --> 35:11.660
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, there's been better builds.

35:12.881 --> 35:16.686
[SPEAKER_01]: There's been more spills and this has been, you know, it's been fine.

35:16.846 --> 35:21.132
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, you can pick apart certain matches, but overall, I think they've been, it's been fine.

35:22.373 --> 35:25.918
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, if they do, I show speed and Danielle's in, I will say this.

35:26.659 --> 35:31.465
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that I show speed or absolutely show out.

35:31.647 --> 35:34.212
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, I believe that house is not very good.

35:34.572 --> 35:36.796
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not very good, but he would do enough.

35:37.117 --> 35:38.199
[SPEAKER_00]: You'll do enough.

35:38.219 --> 35:39.441
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think I chose to speed.

35:39.602 --> 35:41.365
[SPEAKER_00]: He might mess around and really get over.

35:41.906 --> 35:43.889
[SPEAKER_00]: I saw the training footage from the PC.

35:43.929 --> 35:45.412
[SPEAKER_00]: I like what I see.

35:45.472 --> 35:47.917
[SPEAKER_00]: He's clearly in shape to do something across Romania.

35:47.957 --> 35:54.128
[SPEAKER_00]: And Logan Paul, if this guy clears you in terms of athleticism, be afraid.

35:54.395 --> 35:55.216
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, afraid.

35:55.296 --> 36:01.183
[SPEAKER_00]: If he outshines you in hops, skill set, I'm like, okay, we might have another hopper on our hands.

36:01.243 --> 36:01.824
[SPEAKER_00]: We shall see.

36:02.425 --> 36:13.919
[SPEAKER_00]: But let's get to speaking of the women's division and the women's tag team titles, it was Naya Jax and Lash legend versus Bailey and Lara Vakiria for the women's tag team titles.

36:14.679 --> 36:19.305
[SPEAKER_00]: God bless Bailey and Lyra because they

36:19.943 --> 36:29.383
[SPEAKER_00]: got the best from Lash and Naya before what happened at the end, they actually got the crowd into it.

36:30.004 --> 36:33.050
[SPEAKER_00]: Midway through, they were pulling together a pretty good match.

36:33.531 --> 36:35.716
[SPEAKER_00]: Lash's power spots were very good.

36:35.736 --> 36:40.045
[SPEAKER_00]: Naya was slow in spots, but when she needed to be present, she was there.

36:40.025 --> 36:55.047
[SPEAKER_00]: Lyra and Bailey were ring generals and they carried and they delivered and then we had the Bella twins and Shalexa come out there and we had a melee for a DQ and the fans went from this match It's kind of good to we don't care

36:55.027 --> 37:02.519
[SPEAKER_00]: about all of this, the spots, the fighting was very sloppy to me, very disorganized, it was heatless.

37:02.900 --> 37:08.549
[SPEAKER_00]: But now we know it will be a fatal for a between these four teams, Arrasamania, for the women's tag team titles.

37:09.110 --> 37:10.572
[SPEAKER_00]: And I feel like

37:10.552 --> 37:16.907
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a match tailor made for Bailey and Lyra to get the full redemption from Losers, WrestleMania.

37:17.187 --> 37:26.569
[SPEAKER_00]: Cause let's remember Becky Lynch, Phantom Attack, Bailey backstage took her out to her place and therefore Lyra and Becky won the championships for a night.

37:26.549 --> 37:34.129
[SPEAKER_00]: But now you get to retell the story of Bailey and Lyra working their way back up to the moment to redo it and to win these titles.

37:34.430 --> 37:37.458
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the only outcome that makes sense to me at WrestleMania.

37:38.020 --> 37:40.727
[SPEAKER_00]: Anything else to me would be stupid.

37:42.344 --> 37:47.575
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, if it is those four, like, is that official that they now said I might admit that it is official.

37:47.896 --> 37:48.176
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

37:48.437 --> 37:55.693
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because I thought, like, I was thinking they might even add a couple more teams, but, you know, if they said it's official, that probably is what the match is.

37:55.713 --> 37:59.140
[SPEAKER_01]: And honestly, that's kind of disappointing that it is these four.

37:59.380 --> 38:02.968
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it'd be great if if Lyron Bailey won, that that should happen.

38:02.948 --> 38:10.457
[SPEAKER_01]: But, you know, like that leaves some, you know, some good teams that, you know, aren't, like, where's the kabuki warriors?

38:11.077 --> 38:13.760
[SPEAKER_01]: Where's, you know, like, yo, like, what's he yo doing?

38:14.121 --> 38:18.105
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know, she might be the best wrestler on the roster and, like, looks like she doesn't even have a match.

38:18.165 --> 38:23.712
[SPEAKER_01]: So, unless they're going to do some sort of, like, maybe she teams out with the kabuki warriors?

38:23.772 --> 38:25.414
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know, that doesn't make sense.

38:26.555 --> 38:30.880
[SPEAKER_01]: I was thinking, like, with judgment day women, but no, because Luke's got a match, obviously.

38:30.860 --> 38:42.521
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I guess it has to be Lyron Bailey, although if I was putting money on it, I feel like the bill is going to win just because that might be the reason that they brought them back.

38:43.142 --> 38:47.149
[SPEAKER_01]: Was that so they could get a tagging title rain under the belts before they retire again?

38:48.612 --> 38:54.943
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, it should be Lyron Bailey, but my money's with the bill is even that I think that would be terrible.

38:55.497 --> 39:00.326
[SPEAKER_00]: I enjoyed the Bella's, I do, but they signed a two year contract.

39:00.747 --> 39:02.170
[SPEAKER_00]: They have two years to win these belts.

39:02.691 --> 39:06.178
[SPEAKER_00]: So they signed a two year, they did, they did.

39:06.218 --> 39:09.805
[SPEAKER_00]: They did, so we have time.

39:10.286 --> 39:11.408
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't have to annoyed them.

39:11.909 --> 39:15.075
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't have to make a brand of brand ambassador or something.

39:15.207 --> 39:31.193
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, they'll probably be that in two years, but in the meantime, they decided to your contract and they don't have to win this year, they can win later in the year, but I would love to see Bailey and Lyra get this match.

39:31.233 --> 39:37.283
[SPEAKER_00]: And as you said, I think the peak for what I wanted, which was the TLC match has passed.

39:37.263 --> 39:39.889
[SPEAKER_00]: We had the teams, such as the group of warriors.

39:40.289 --> 39:43.316
[SPEAKER_00]: We had Maria and EOS a team.

39:43.637 --> 39:46.362
[SPEAKER_00]: We have, sure, Alexa, we have Naya and Lash.

39:46.383 --> 39:48.166
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like Julia Fiona.

39:48.667 --> 39:49.229
[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.

39:49.609 --> 39:50.571
[SPEAKER_00]: We've passed a peak.

39:50.852 --> 39:52.155
[SPEAKER_00]: We've passed a peak, sadly.

39:52.496 --> 39:55.963
[SPEAKER_00]: And now we have this fatal for a match to me, which is a little underpicked.

39:56.534 --> 39:59.539
[SPEAKER_00]: the chemistry is going to be interesting.

39:59.840 --> 40:09.877
[SPEAKER_00]: What I will say that I have complete confidence in is that Charlotte and Bailey will be present because when they work together, they just go extra hard.

40:09.897 --> 40:09.997
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

40:10.237 --> 40:12.501
[SPEAKER_01]: And these latches very good.

40:12.481 --> 40:15.565
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, for a level of experience, I don't doubt what she can do.

40:16.026 --> 40:17.508
[SPEAKER_00]: Lyra is going to be great.

40:17.989 --> 40:21.534
[SPEAKER_00]: I have no issue with Brie, Nikki is hitting Miss for me.

40:21.574 --> 40:24.358
[SPEAKER_00]: I just want her to have a good night and be on.

40:24.378 --> 40:26.201
[SPEAKER_00]: And Naya, let us pray.

40:26.481 --> 40:28.985
[SPEAKER_01]: Because some night, she can be great.

40:29.305 --> 40:35.935
[SPEAKER_01]: Brie mode and does a jump and like that's, I don't think much of Brie either, like I'll be honest with you.

40:35.955 --> 40:38.118
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I'm not like, don't give me wrong.

40:38.178 --> 40:39.079
[SPEAKER_01]: Like they're.

40:39.380 --> 40:41.604
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, they never have been very good.

40:42.044 --> 40:50.097
[SPEAKER_01]: The problem is, like, before they were average, but now, like, average is so much better than it used to be, that that's why they look so much worse.

40:50.117 --> 40:52.841
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, they're not actually worse than they were in their prime.

40:53.342 --> 40:55.325
[SPEAKER_01]: The problem is, is that everyone else is so much better.

40:56.467 --> 41:02.096
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's why they stand out now, as being, you know, not up to the quality of the rest of the women.

41:03.278 --> 41:03.859
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I agree.

41:03.879 --> 41:04.780
[SPEAKER_00]: I...

41:06.481 --> 41:11.051
[SPEAKER_00]: But I just hope that Nikki shows up and just has a clean match.

41:11.111 --> 41:12.274
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all I can hope for.

41:12.614 --> 41:21.233
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I just come into their spots and, you know, Lash and and daily and Charlotte can do the majority of the caring of the match.

41:21.432 --> 41:24.576
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Curry had no to the probably B.E.L.

41:24.596 --> 41:32.066
[SPEAKER_00]: versus Oscar might be career WrestleMania to the Triple Joshi match, which I all for a WrestleMania that has been teased.

41:32.106 --> 41:35.711
[SPEAKER_00]: Just let them go out there for 50 minutes and work a stiff match.

41:35.811 --> 41:36.552
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm here for it.

41:37.113 --> 41:40.477
[SPEAKER_00]: He also asked what is Julia going to do with WrestleMania?

41:40.818 --> 41:48.047
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I'll tell you this Curry head after what I saw on SmackDown between Julia and Tiffany

41:48.027 --> 41:50.329
[SPEAKER_01]: No, maybe there's your answer right there.

41:50.369 --> 41:52.171
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe they do, you know, you talk about Joe.

41:52.191 --> 41:53.673
[SPEAKER_01]: She maybe it's Julia, E.O.

41:53.693 --> 41:54.234
[SPEAKER_01]: and Oscar.

41:55.615 --> 41:57.817
[SPEAKER_00]: And Kyrie, let's do a frightful way.

41:58.078 --> 41:59.019
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that'd be great.

41:59.119 --> 42:00.540
[SPEAKER_01]: That'd be so skillet.

42:00.560 --> 42:00.900
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

42:01.321 --> 42:05.045
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it doesn't make any sense, you don't know, different brands, but who cares?

42:05.245 --> 42:05.906
[SPEAKER_01]: It's made, mania.

42:06.787 --> 42:08.849
[SPEAKER_00]: Paul, we've reached a point of who cares.

42:09.009 --> 42:11.892
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a sport in terms of why there's just showed up.

42:13.323 --> 42:15.967
[SPEAKER_01]: like, you know, I got no match.

42:15.987 --> 42:16.668
[SPEAKER_01]: You got no match.

42:16.688 --> 42:17.208
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's do this.

42:18.250 --> 42:18.831
[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.

42:19.331 --> 42:23.577
[SPEAKER_00]: And this point, we have reached a portion of the WrestleMania build where nothing makes sense.

42:23.597 --> 42:24.759
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's do it anyway.

42:24.919 --> 42:25.319
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

42:26.521 --> 42:26.621
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

42:26.641 --> 42:31.268
[SPEAKER_00]: As I said, after what I saw with Julie and Tiffany, I don't need to see that again.

42:31.288 --> 42:32.850
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no, no.

42:32.910 --> 42:34.072
[SPEAKER_00]: I have no desire to see that.

42:34.132 --> 42:37.356
[SPEAKER_00]: So we can just keep

42:38.163 --> 42:41.729
[SPEAKER_01]: That's probably what the plan is, but we don't need to see it.

42:41.829 --> 42:44.153
[SPEAKER_00]: No, we have seen the evidence.

42:44.573 --> 42:48.660
[SPEAKER_00]: No, all in water is that of what I saw and it was bad.

42:49.141 --> 42:53.708
[SPEAKER_01]: Unless I can have any effect out isn't she like she's talking about Hollywood and yeah.

42:55.443 --> 42:59.870
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, yeah, maybe you could go, yeah, yeah, your heart's not in it.

43:00.231 --> 43:01.273
[SPEAKER_00]: I will see this.

43:01.293 --> 43:09.647
[SPEAKER_00]: The day that your heart is not in it is the day that you need to say Ideosamigos, because then you can come back in three years and get a pop at the Royal Rumble.

43:09.767 --> 43:11.410
[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah.

43:11.542 --> 43:14.768
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because if you're not present, you cannot be here.

43:15.149 --> 43:18.515
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's a detriment when you're not working to how shows, and that's no thought of her own.

43:18.916 --> 43:26.850
[SPEAKER_00]: But when that is not available to you, and then you deliver performances like that, and you're possibly mentally checked out, that is a recipe for disaster.

43:27.455 --> 43:33.282
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, you know, the first Tiffany in WWE, she, she, uh, that was her name, right?

43:33.703 --> 43:34.023
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

43:34.384 --> 43:40.972
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, and she left to go do acting and then she ended up coming back and becoming, uh, pretty decent wrestling TNA.

43:41.273 --> 43:42.835
[SPEAKER_01]: So many of that could be this Tiffany too.

43:43.976 --> 43:44.276
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

43:44.817 --> 43:45.097
[SPEAKER_01]: Terrent.

43:45.137 --> 43:45.418
[SPEAKER_01]: Terrell.

43:45.638 --> 43:46.860
[SPEAKER_01]: Jesus, Jesus wife.

43:47.360 --> 43:47.661
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

43:47.681 --> 43:48.522
[SPEAKER_00]: First wife.

43:49.163 --> 43:49.263
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

43:49.283 --> 43:52.787
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, in the land of parted trim.

43:53.148 --> 43:55.791
[SPEAKER_01]: She did a memorable guest run on that show.

43:55.838 --> 43:57.580
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, crazy.

43:57.620 --> 44:00.984
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's not in it since public break up.

44:01.024 --> 44:03.467
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm not being funny when I say that and I know that you're not.

44:03.768 --> 44:08.213
[SPEAKER_01]: I and her ex is the way more over than she is, which she really hurts to.

44:08.934 --> 44:10.216
[SPEAKER_01]: On top of.

44:10.917 --> 44:11.217
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

44:12.358 --> 44:24.934
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's it's rough out here in the streets when you go and and the other part of that is I mean you probably now have to

44:24.914 --> 44:27.958
[SPEAKER_01]: No, after everything had happened last year and they're on the same brand.

44:28.118 --> 44:30.241
[SPEAKER_01]: So I think, right?

44:30.661 --> 44:32.224
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're on the same brand.

44:32.244 --> 44:32.764
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I can.

44:32.824 --> 44:34.707
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm never sure with Charlotte.

44:34.727 --> 44:35.928
[SPEAKER_01]: So, but yeah, no, they're smack down.

44:35.948 --> 44:38.251
[SPEAKER_01]: So I mean, yeah, she's no weird spot.

44:39.032 --> 44:39.793
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, unfortunately.

44:40.174 --> 44:40.554
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

44:40.574 --> 44:42.597
[SPEAKER_00]: But I think it might be time for to go on a hiatus.

44:43.218 --> 44:45.100
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, these would be on the back.

44:45.461 --> 44:46.843
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we're not comes back.

44:46.863 --> 44:48.064
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going to be completely obshadowed.

44:48.605 --> 44:49.266
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.

44:49.286 --> 44:50.027
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.

44:50.047 --> 44:50.147
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

44:50.167 --> 44:51.989
[SPEAKER_01]: And then yeah, absence thinks of her co-founder.

44:52.370 --> 44:54.853
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes,

44:54.833 --> 44:56.035
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.

44:56.055 --> 44:58.500
[SPEAKER_00]: I think if you're heart-centered, let's just check on out.

44:59.162 --> 45:01.807
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you follow it for a bit and come back when you're ready?

45:02.128 --> 45:03.270
[SPEAKER_00]: It's kind of where I'm at right now.

45:03.972 --> 45:09.423
[SPEAKER_00]: But let's get on with the show with Penta versus Kofi Kingston for the intercontinental championship.

45:09.463 --> 45:11.407
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought this match was solid for what it was.

45:11.467 --> 45:13.551
[SPEAKER_00]: Kofi still has it.

45:13.531 --> 45:18.640
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, nearly 20 years in the game as a wrestler and WWE how time flies.

45:18.760 --> 45:21.184
[SPEAKER_00]: Penta is a great icy champion so far.

45:21.244 --> 45:22.226
[SPEAKER_00]: The crowd loves him.

45:22.266 --> 45:25.372
[SPEAKER_00]: They are biting on every new fall and everything he does.

45:25.612 --> 45:38.695
[SPEAKER_00]: And how life for me was coffee catching Penta, they trouble and paradise and mid-air, which was gnarly for a new fall and then Penta counters with a Mexican destroyer to retain the championship.

45:38.675 --> 46:06.133
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we could see an announcement that we would have a ladder match at WrestleMania involving Pinta and the following men, Dragon Lee, Javan Evans, Rusev and JD McDonough from the Judgment Day, according to Michael Cole, they had qualifying matches on main event, which is a lie, but we're going to roll with it because they did have matches with they weren't qualifying matches on main event.

46:06.974 --> 46:13.189
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not positive that JD McDonald has had a match on me and I watch that every week.

46:13.230 --> 46:14.312
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just looking it up now.

46:14.372 --> 46:23.515
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, yeah, no, he has not had a match on main event in a long time.

46:23.933 --> 46:27.098
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, I'm like back over.

46:27.479 --> 46:31.266
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, uh, JD Macdonald defeated a Kirito Zawa, January 20th, 2025.

46:31.566 --> 46:41.503
[SPEAKER_01]: So he won a match three months before last year's WrestleMania to qualify for this year's WrestleMania.

46:41.483 --> 46:43.366
[SPEAKER_00]: that is the evidence they went on.

46:44.267 --> 46:52.939
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because, uh, yeah, because I, like, I didn't remember the names and I was looking, I remember last week's main event of Apollo Crews one and I'm like, is he in this far away?

46:53.781 --> 46:56.705
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, we're not putting them all up Apollo Crews.

46:57.085 --> 47:00.991
[SPEAKER_01]: Even though him and Matt Cardona just teamed up to beat, uh, for Axiom.

47:01.291 --> 47:01.752
[SPEAKER_01]: Leave it or not.

47:02.393 --> 47:02.753
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no.

47:02.773 --> 47:03.615
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah.

47:04.135 --> 47:04.836
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, is it?

47:04.996 --> 47:09.583
[SPEAKER_01]: Now is this one final or can they add people to it?

47:10.627 --> 47:16.516
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I feel like this was final, but they said the field so far.

47:17.238 --> 47:17.598
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

47:17.859 --> 47:20.803
[SPEAKER_01]: So because I feel like they could add Royce keys to this.

47:21.244 --> 47:22.246
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

47:22.266 --> 47:23.027
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

47:23.668 --> 47:24.469
[SPEAKER_01]: And maybe.

47:25.551 --> 47:30.499
[SPEAKER_01]: So you use a rafing extravagantly, JD McDonald and Penta and who else?

47:30.799 --> 47:31.801
[SPEAKER_01]: Who that means?

47:31.821 --> 47:32.642
[SPEAKER_01]: Rusef is in there.

47:32.682 --> 47:33.764
[SPEAKER_01]: Rusef, right?

47:33.824 --> 47:34.605
[SPEAKER_01]: Rusef is the other one.

47:35.006 --> 47:37.630
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, that's.

47:37.610 --> 47:39.292
[SPEAKER_01]: pretty good actually.

47:39.433 --> 47:40.915
[SPEAKER_01]: You could probably just leave that alone.

47:41.335 --> 47:44.139
[SPEAKER_01]: Rusev can be the base and everyone is not surrounded off.

47:44.159 --> 47:44.359
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

47:44.780 --> 47:45.381
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

47:45.521 --> 47:49.346
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, we haven't seen Rusev and that's another one, like he hasn't been on main event.

47:49.727 --> 47:53.151
[SPEAKER_01]: Like we're talking about, there's just the wires.

47:53.612 --> 47:56.376
[SPEAKER_01]: Must maybe they taped it this week and it's going to air on Thursday.

47:56.456 --> 47:57.037
[SPEAKER_01]: That's possible.

47:57.317 --> 47:58.198
[SPEAKER_01]: To justify it.

47:58.218 --> 47:58.839
[SPEAKER_01]: Because last thing.

47:58.859 --> 48:00.221
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, except that's still lying.

48:00.341 --> 48:03.205
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I mean, you're, you're, you're telling you about matches.

48:03.245 --> 48:04.207
[SPEAKER_01]: I haven't even air yet.

48:04.447 --> 48:07.431
[SPEAKER_01]: They were qualifying

48:07.411 --> 48:14.701
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, no and I was able to qualify after losing to over 50 in minutes and Monday night Raw.

48:15.142 --> 48:16.103
[SPEAKER_00]: How did you qualify?

48:16.123 --> 48:25.195
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know For the same way JD McDonald qualified by winning match 15 months ago.

48:25.336 --> 48:32.946
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, that was it trian, but it should be a great match I'm all for whatever Javan is going to do

48:32.926 --> 48:33.487
[SPEAKER_00]: Dr.

48:33.627 --> 48:34.548
[SPEAKER_00]: Von with the other one.

48:34.768 --> 48:35.069
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

48:35.870 --> 48:37.351
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, he's not been on main event.

48:37.732 --> 48:37.912
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

48:37.952 --> 48:38.393
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

48:38.813 --> 48:39.013
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

48:39.033 --> 48:39.374
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

48:39.554 --> 48:40.315
[SPEAKER_00]: Not recently.

48:40.335 --> 48:41.276
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

48:41.316 --> 48:41.917
[SPEAKER_00]: He has.

48:41.957 --> 48:44.560
[SPEAKER_00]: He fought dragonly very recently.

48:44.580 --> 48:49.086
[SPEAKER_01]: I go in a great match on main event.

48:49.446 --> 48:49.727
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

48:49.887 --> 48:51.489
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that was at least a month ago.

48:52.230 --> 48:53.331
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a few weeks ago.

48:53.817 --> 48:54.258
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

48:55.261 --> 48:55.642
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no.

48:55.802 --> 48:56.604
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Dragon Lee.

48:56.905 --> 48:58.770
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, don't, uh, it was March 9.

48:58.850 --> 48:59.131
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

48:59.151 --> 48:59.372
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

48:59.392 --> 48:59.933
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

48:59.953 --> 49:00.254
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

49:00.395 --> 49:00.896
[SPEAKER_01]: Dragon Lee.

49:00.916 --> 49:01.237
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yes.

49:01.257 --> 49:02.240
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a great match.

49:02.260 --> 49:02.360
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

49:02.380 --> 49:02.641
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

49:03.002 --> 49:06.190
[SPEAKER_00]: The fans of qualifying match apparently that we did not know at the time.

49:06.406 --> 49:06.706
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

49:07.147 --> 49:08.249
[SPEAKER_01]: He also beat El Grande.

49:08.269 --> 49:09.070
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no, that was on raw.

49:09.631 --> 49:09.992
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

49:10.012 --> 49:10.673
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry.

49:10.693 --> 49:11.594
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm getting sidetracked too.

49:12.055 --> 49:12.897
[SPEAKER_01]: I just watched this.

49:12.957 --> 49:13.197
[SPEAKER_01]: God.

49:13.217 --> 49:13.498
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

49:13.518 --> 49:13.738
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

49:13.758 --> 49:15.301
[SPEAKER_01]: It was it was the only match that week.

49:15.361 --> 49:16.082
[SPEAKER_01]: Actually, I'm made of it.

49:16.422 --> 49:18.406
[SPEAKER_01]: It made of it now available on YouTube for.

49:18.486 --> 49:19.768
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, it's only United States.

49:19.788 --> 49:20.729
[SPEAKER_01]: So everybody can watch it.

49:20.749 --> 49:21.551
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a quick watch.

49:21.611 --> 49:28.001
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like 20 minutes 20 to 30 minutes every week on Thursdays and then available on demand after that.

49:28.081 --> 49:28.482
[SPEAKER_01]: So

49:29.221 --> 49:31.885
[SPEAKER_00]: glad we're not getting geoblocked anymore and curry.

49:31.925 --> 49:34.770
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, even you can get a qualifying match.

49:36.012 --> 49:36.873
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll rest you.

49:36.893 --> 49:41.901
[SPEAKER_00]: Fire of the 2K 26 and get in the ring and have a battle.

49:41.921 --> 49:44.645
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no, no, no, actual match, actual match.

49:45.126 --> 49:46.308
[SPEAKER_01]: We're bumping.

49:46.528 --> 49:48.070
[SPEAKER_01]: But I need that cherry moonshine first.

49:50.194 --> 49:53.519
[SPEAKER_00]: And then, of course, you have Brock Lesnar coming out.

49:53.900 --> 49:55.482
[SPEAKER_00]: He's ready to fight apparently.

49:55.462 --> 50:01.333
[SPEAKER_00]: And Paul Hamin is making excuses saying, well, the first time he was preoccupied the second time.

50:01.353 --> 50:02.495
[SPEAKER_00]: He just wanted the talk.

50:02.515 --> 50:04.599
[SPEAKER_00]: He wasn't dressed to compete tonight.

50:04.639 --> 50:05.581
[SPEAKER_00]: He's dressed to fight.

50:06.122 --> 50:08.386
[SPEAKER_00]: And Brock is like, give me this microphone.

50:08.787 --> 50:10.390
[SPEAKER_00]: All the family get your ass out here.

50:10.771 --> 50:12.053
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's do this thing.

50:12.033 --> 50:29.117
[SPEAKER_00]: and Obo comes out the fans go crazy and Adam pierced the biggest hill in YC says, not on my watch, I can't give you people what you want after protect my mattressa mania as Paul does the Obo family dance down the ring and his chair, which I love right now.

50:29.638 --> 50:35.747
[SPEAKER_00]: And so Obo proceeds to just run through the Renna security guys.

50:35.807 --> 50:40.133
[SPEAKER_00]: He flings one guy in the air, spins him like

50:40.973 --> 50:49.142
[SPEAKER_00]: a spin top, like a spin cycle on wash, and I was like, sir, that was insane.

50:49.603 --> 50:58.693
[SPEAKER_00]: And so Brock is like, so Opa is just taking his time circling the ring, making Brock less than a wait for him.

50:58.753 --> 51:09.985
[SPEAKER_00]: And when the time comes for both guys to go face to face, I'd I palm

51:09.965 --> 51:12.210
[SPEAKER_00]: This main event of WrestleMania.

51:12.651 --> 51:13.633
[SPEAKER_00]: I must intervene.

51:13.954 --> 51:29.087
[SPEAKER_00]: I must put my body on the line and say no, we cannot get physical tonight and both guys do stand down Brock is a little hairy out there.

51:30.350 --> 51:37.925
[SPEAKER_00]: It really speaks to how much they love Oba for him not to get laid out by Brock in week three.

51:38.306 --> 51:40.710
[SPEAKER_00]: There is two weeks to go into WrestleMania.

51:41.071 --> 51:47.704
[SPEAKER_00]: Will Brock get his lick back before then I don't know, but the energy in that building with Oba was off there was incredible.

51:48.185 --> 51:50.890
[SPEAKER_00]: And the people wanted to see him.

51:50.870 --> 51:55.159
[SPEAKER_00]: get his hands on Brock and they were denied and they were pissed off.

51:55.239 --> 52:03.937
[SPEAKER_00]: But at the same time, I had a small amount of my face, the entire time because I am looking forward to this match of Recemania so much.

52:04.418 --> 52:08.707
[SPEAKER_00]: If Oba does not win, y'all don't want to see me during a post show.

52:09.289 --> 52:10.431
[SPEAKER_00]: You really don't.

52:10.951 --> 52:31.197
[SPEAKER_01]: the, um, I, so I mean, the, the Oba coming to the ring was the best, like the way he just moved through the security guards, like I've never seen anybody do that better, like I'm probably exaggerating, but I mean, he, I mean, they offered zero resistance and they tried.

52:31.618 --> 52:32.979
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just this was Oba.

52:33.480 --> 52:35.102
[SPEAKER_01]: When he got in the ring,

52:35.082 --> 52:49.969
[SPEAKER_01]: The fans chatted holy shit that just at the idea of the two of them in the ring at the same time and on opposite corners and Brock they cut the cut to him a couple of times and he showed fear

52:50.320 --> 53:09.983
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's you've never seen that from Brock like ever and it was subtle but it was there you had to be looking for it and I mean that to me like I mean it just kind of shows like how little you need to do to get that reaction and how you can put somebody over by just like a look.

53:09.963 --> 53:22.202
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, and it was similar to, you know, like it completely different, but, you know, like similar to how he put over Keith Lee, you know, back in the day when oh, this look at this guy, but in this case, it was like he didn't even say anything.

53:22.322 --> 53:26.990
[SPEAKER_01]: He just looked at him and he's like, oh, shit, what have I got myself into like that.

53:27.010 --> 53:28.112
[SPEAKER_01]: That was kind of looking at it.

53:28.152 --> 53:32.899
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's usually the other way around people look at Brock and have that look and I think Brock.

53:33.250 --> 54:00.422
[SPEAKER_01]: the character, the person has never been in that position in his life where he has been scared of the person that he's across the ring from and he showed that today and and then it was like he had no problem having that fight broken up and he got out of there as quick as he could because he did not want any piece of over and I thought that was great and I'm not sure

54:00.402 --> 54:04.006
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not positive of that, but if it is, like, we may not see them again until Mania.

54:04.526 --> 54:05.567
[SPEAKER_01]: And that might be great.

54:06.308 --> 54:06.908
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?

54:06.948 --> 54:09.391
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, because I don't know if they can do this another week.

54:10.112 --> 54:13.395
[SPEAKER_01]: And this was the perfect place to do it, because that crowd was hot.

54:14.216 --> 54:16.918
[SPEAKER_01]: And it felt like this was the middle WrestleMania main event.

54:17.299 --> 54:21.142
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know, they did a great job with Punk and Roman in the main event segment.

54:21.162 --> 54:26.848
[SPEAKER_01]: They, you know, they didn't do a great job with

54:26.828 --> 54:33.073
[SPEAKER_01]: And this is, I mean, at worst, it's a number three match, but I think to a lot of people, this is the number one match of the weekend.

54:33.814 --> 54:34.995
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think so too.

54:35.315 --> 54:47.505
[SPEAKER_00]: And as you said, Brock selling fear and Paul talking all that shit talking about when Brock is out there, and the other guy setting in front of him, he's going to pee on himself and he's going to leave a puddle.

54:47.886 --> 54:56.413
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, Oprah didn't do that, but Brock did probably figure to leave speaking,

54:56.393 --> 54:59.319
[SPEAKER_00]: I am so looking forward to this match.

54:59.459 --> 55:02.967
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Brock will be on the go home show for WrestleMania.

55:03.147 --> 55:05.933
[SPEAKER_00]: I do think that will be the last appearance.

55:05.973 --> 55:10.963
[SPEAKER_00]: They can table this week in all honesty because you want to save this WrestleMania.

55:11.003 --> 55:17.777
[SPEAKER_00]: And the thing that's going to get this crowd is when Brock is in F5 and he will always going to kick out at one.

55:17.757 --> 55:22.341
[SPEAKER_00]: And when that happens, that crowd is going to go insane, and I'm here for it.

55:22.982 --> 55:32.610
[SPEAKER_00]: And it lays a foundation for where we're going to talk about in just a moment about what they're probably going to do for later in the year involving Brock Lesnar.

55:33.071 --> 55:38.836
[SPEAKER_00]: But what he must do at WrestleMania is take that L to open for me.

55:39.096 --> 55:42.239
[SPEAKER_00]: If you want to make somebody in a night, that's how you do it.

55:42.259 --> 55:44.961
[SPEAKER_00]: The fans are ready for this new star to be born.

55:45.022 --> 55:47.764
[SPEAKER_00]: He's ready for this moment, crown him.

55:47.744 --> 55:48.826
[SPEAKER_00]: do not wait.

55:51.270 --> 55:55.839
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no, I mean, this is, this has been handed to you.

55:55.899 --> 55:57.342
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I shouldn't say it's been handed to you.

55:57.362 --> 55:58.824
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, they found the guy they developed him.

55:58.864 --> 55:59.465
[SPEAKER_01]: They trained him.

55:59.485 --> 56:00.147
[SPEAKER_01]: They brought him up.

56:00.567 --> 56:02.050
[SPEAKER_01]: They kept him down in an XT.

56:02.511 --> 56:10.225
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe a little bit too long, but, you know, now that he's up, I mean, he's over his hell.

56:10.542 --> 56:40.532
[SPEAKER_01]: As over as you could possibly hope and I mean, again, we've said this before, it's for to it is because not only do they need new stars, they need new block stars, that's the honest, and they got to them at least and, you know, and yeah, they'd have to be, it'd be booking malpractice, honestly, you know, that term gets thrown around a lot, but it doesn't apply any more than here, like he has to beat Brock, and then yeah, I was similar with

56:40.512 --> 56:50.827
[SPEAKER_01]: And that could be where the Seth tying comes in, you know, maybe Seth and Gunther have like a moment of respect when their match is done.

56:51.307 --> 56:57.536
[SPEAKER_01]: And then somehow that plays into, you know, like Gunther joining forces with Seth against the vision.

56:57.957 --> 57:04.326
[SPEAKER_01]: And then that's how he ends up, you know, Brock being, you know, he's not part of the vision, but he's definitely associated with them.

57:04.306 --> 57:20.087
[SPEAKER_01]: And that could be how you get to Brock and Goenther at Summerslam in the or unless it's Brock that turns and you know you keep Goenther as a heal and and he were he retires him in his home to sit in home state.

57:20.388 --> 57:22.450
[SPEAKER_00]: That's awesome.

57:22.651 --> 57:24.173
[SPEAKER_00]: Paul you cook in I love it.

57:24.273 --> 57:24.794
[SPEAKER_00]: I love it.

57:24.814 --> 57:31.022
[SPEAKER_00]: And I like the idea of the main event of last year, San and deliver.

57:31.323 --> 57:35.468
[SPEAKER_00]: All having matches are WrestleMania with Javan, Trick and Opa.

57:36.068 --> 57:41.314
[SPEAKER_00]: It would be amazing if all three of them won their matches during the WrestleMania debuts.

57:41.955 --> 57:44.558
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, sucks for mellow, but he'll do it.

57:45.139 --> 57:45.840
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it does.

57:46.180 --> 57:46.460
[SPEAKER_00]: It does.

57:46.681 --> 57:48.503
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope that he finds his way on the card.

57:48.603 --> 57:52.427
[SPEAKER_00]: If not, Paul Beck, you and I got a talk because what's what's really good?

57:52.988 --> 57:55.571
[SPEAKER_01]: Because he's been holding the fork down for SmackDown.

57:55.591 --> 57:56.111
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, sure.

57:56.352 --> 57:56.612
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

57:57.052 --> 58:00.216
[SPEAKER_01]: The glue holding it together with

58:00.382 --> 58:02.505
[SPEAKER_01]: kind of like AJ years ago.

58:03.045 --> 58:03.366
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

58:03.706 --> 58:04.908
[SPEAKER_01]: What was it?

58:04.928 --> 58:06.430
[SPEAKER_01]: What did you call the face around the place?

58:06.610 --> 58:08.752
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, yeah, it was like on for sure.

58:09.874 --> 58:13.258
[SPEAKER_01]: And they got mellow doing that and then they just took the title off of themselves.

58:14.039 --> 58:14.299
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.

58:14.319 --> 58:14.419
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

58:14.440 --> 58:15.100
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's for him.

58:15.180 --> 58:18.424
[SPEAKER_01]: But honestly, I trick in Sami's a bigger match.

58:18.925 --> 58:19.225
[SPEAKER_00]: It is.

58:19.466 --> 58:19.766
[SPEAKER_00]: It is.

58:19.866 --> 58:23.631
[SPEAKER_00]: I just hope that mellows reward it, Elias reward it to.

58:24.051 --> 58:26.895
[SPEAKER_00]: If they can have a match

58:27.145 --> 58:28.127
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm fine with that.

58:28.267 --> 58:30.711
[SPEAKER_00]: If we're going balls out, let's let's do it.

58:31.151 --> 58:34.516
[SPEAKER_00]: If we have to do what we got to do, just to have them on the card.

58:34.677 --> 58:35.438
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm fine with that.

58:35.458 --> 58:39.564
[SPEAKER_00]: But we shall see how they play it in a couple of weeks or less of many.

58:39.644 --> 58:41.007
[SPEAKER_00]: Then we get to Paul amen coming out.

58:41.587 --> 58:48.478
[SPEAKER_00]: And he is someone that did not look at his Gmail today as Adam Pierce tried to tell him various times.

58:48.939 --> 58:49.660
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey.

58:49.640 --> 58:50.641
[SPEAKER_00]: Check your email.

58:50.681 --> 58:51.643
[SPEAKER_00]: Did you read your email?

58:51.683 --> 58:52.964
[SPEAKER_00]: Paul says, I'm all knowing.

58:53.005 --> 58:53.786
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm all seeing.

58:53.866 --> 58:55.107
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't need to read my email.

58:55.728 --> 59:02.417
[SPEAKER_00]: And Adam Pierce is like, when did you read the fact that the Boston PD dropped all charges against Seth Rollins last week?

59:02.778 --> 59:07.404
[SPEAKER_00]: And did you read your email that Seth Rollins is medically cleared to compete?

59:07.804 --> 59:10.328
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Paul's eyes go bug out like what?

59:10.829 --> 59:12.170
[SPEAKER_00]: And so Seth's music hits.

59:12.631 --> 59:16.356
[SPEAKER_00]: Seth comes out no more hood, no more mass and God is back in a

59:16.336 --> 59:19.342
[SPEAKER_00]: Tame suit by his standards all black.

59:19.362 --> 59:32.106
[SPEAKER_00]: He hits Paul in the back with a still chair goes to do more damage when Gunther pulls him out of the ring, puts him to sleep with a sleeper hold and we have this match in WrestleMania, which is incredibly random.

59:32.126 --> 59:32.988
[SPEAKER_00]: But here we are.

59:33.008 --> 59:36.555
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not mad at it because circumstances apparently.

59:36.535 --> 59:39.879
[SPEAKER_00]: gum that was supposed to face remasterio raised out.

59:40.359 --> 59:43.022
[SPEAKER_00]: Seth was supposed to face bond breaker at WrestleMania.

59:43.423 --> 59:44.965
[SPEAKER_00]: Bronze hernia is not healing.

59:45.025 --> 59:53.434
[SPEAKER_00]: I think you might have a medical update today when you went to the arena at MSG and the news was not good probably.

59:53.835 --> 59:58.560
[SPEAKER_00]: So they said, well, let's give these two guys a match of WrestleMania.

59:58.540 --> 01:00:02.467
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's just go out there and put on the classic and I'm not mad at it.

01:00:02.547 --> 01:00:10.120
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that if Paul has made a deal with gumther, then the end game already leaves us to what Paul is suggested.

01:00:10.160 --> 01:00:17.072
[SPEAKER_00]: Minnesota, summer slam, night one or two, gumther versus Brock.

01:00:17.052 --> 01:00:22.446
[SPEAKER_00]: Brock has hinted that he does not have a lot of time left on this current deal with WWE.

01:00:22.506 --> 01:00:23.669
[SPEAKER_00]: He might be retiring.

01:00:24.050 --> 01:00:28.000
[SPEAKER_00]: That was the word from the moment he came back last year is short term.

01:00:28.461 --> 01:00:34.015
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you want to really retire him and send him on a glory in storyline, dump there is your guy.

01:00:34.703 --> 01:00:39.050
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, absolutely, how did Gunther get busted open?

01:00:39.651 --> 01:00:47.823
[SPEAKER_01]: Did you like, yeah, okay, yeah, cause I thought like they showed the replay and like Seth was like like thrashing around to try to get out of the sleeper.

01:00:47.903 --> 01:00:53.472
[SPEAKER_01]: So maybe it was in the process of that that you know, like he was because he was actually like,

01:00:53.452 --> 01:00:56.239
[SPEAKER_01]: It looked real like the way he was trying to get out of it.

01:00:56.259 --> 01:01:11.376
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I'm not seeing it was real obviously, but You know like he he was acting very well trying to get out of it and and so it must have been something there We're going through was trying to avoid all these random shots set sets was throwing and he maybe hit the side of a table or something But yeah, he was kind of open pretty good

01:01:11.356 --> 01:01:15.219
[SPEAKER_01]: bleeding off the side of his face when, you know, afterwards.

01:01:15.300 --> 01:01:17.381
[SPEAKER_01]: But it was fine.

01:01:17.401 --> 01:01:21.365
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll probably get a promo from him next week explaining why he did what he did.

01:01:21.745 --> 01:01:29.532
[SPEAKER_01]: Seth will attack him and then they'll have a brawl and then the following week, we'll get promos from both of them, hype it up their match at Median and that's that.

01:01:30.113 --> 01:01:41.363
[SPEAKER_01]: And you know, that's as good as we could have hoped for and then we wait six months and see on Unreal when somebody, somebody comes up with the idea at

01:01:41.343 --> 01:01:43.305
[SPEAKER_01]: Stats upon it is injured.

01:01:44.367 --> 01:01:45.688
[SPEAKER_01]: Good, there's a poem in his injured.

01:01:45.728 --> 01:01:47.210
[SPEAKER_01]: Why don't we just put them against each other?

01:01:47.651 --> 01:01:48.812
[SPEAKER_01]: And Paul, I'm Paul of Echo call.

01:01:49.613 --> 01:01:50.574
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a great idea.

01:01:50.634 --> 01:01:52.377
[SPEAKER_01]: Way to go, Ryan.

01:01:52.797 --> 01:01:53.678
[SPEAKER_01]: And then we go.

01:01:55.801 --> 01:01:58.204
[SPEAKER_01]: While he's on the Zoom call, the Asadela White.

01:01:58.224 --> 01:01:59.165
[SPEAKER_01]: Great idea, guys.

01:01:59.265 --> 01:01:59.906
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm busy.

01:01:59.926 --> 01:02:02.589
[SPEAKER_01]: Seth walks into the room and he's like, what have you got for me?

01:02:05.072 --> 01:02:05.513
[SPEAKER_02]: Good, there.

01:02:06.013 --> 01:02:06.614
[SPEAKER_02]: So, and sesame.

01:02:07.695 --> 01:02:08.036
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay.

01:02:09.077 --> 01:02:09.898
[SPEAKER_02]: Let's do it.

01:02:10.570 --> 01:02:11.503
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know.

01:02:11.819 --> 01:02:17.987
[SPEAKER_00]: I just know that if we saw a footage right now, that WrestleMania vision board is fucked.

01:02:18.527 --> 01:02:19.889
[SPEAKER_00]: It is all over the place.

01:02:20.750 --> 01:02:21.431
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, Lord.

01:02:22.052 --> 01:02:23.874
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I enjoyed this segment.

01:02:23.914 --> 01:02:24.795
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a surprise.

01:02:24.895 --> 01:02:28.700
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, ooh, Gunther said, they can have a great match of WrestleMania.

01:02:28.860 --> 01:02:29.681
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm all for that.

01:02:29.721 --> 01:02:33.766
[SPEAKER_00]: It builds to possibly Gunther and Brock at SummerSlam as well in the time comes.

01:02:34.127 --> 01:02:35.168
[SPEAKER_00]: Give me that as well.

01:02:35.589 --> 01:02:37.351
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's a two-fold one special for me.

01:02:37.871 --> 01:02:41.556
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm all for that as we get to our next match,

01:02:41.536 --> 01:02:43.159
[SPEAKER_00]: versus Wacau Rodriguez.

01:02:44.461 --> 01:02:47.747
[SPEAKER_00]: Eoskeye losing on Monday Night Raw, does not make me feel great.

01:02:48.188 --> 01:02:49.390
[SPEAKER_00]: I did not like that at all.

01:02:49.430 --> 01:02:51.954
[SPEAKER_00]: The match is okay for what it was.

01:02:52.054 --> 01:02:59.487
[SPEAKER_00]: There's an all about Oscar trying to get Kyrie to cost Eo the match and Eo did a crazy diving Oscar.

01:02:59.948 --> 01:03:02.312
[SPEAKER_00]: Norely landing and she tells.

01:03:02.292 --> 01:03:07.887
[SPEAKER_00]: Kyrie, you can send up for yourself, you got this, you don't need Oscar holding you back.

01:03:08.107 --> 01:03:09.712
[SPEAKER_00]: You can stand in your own two feet.

01:03:10.093 --> 01:03:15.166
[SPEAKER_00]: That distraction allows Raquel to do the Tahana bomb on EO to get the dub.

01:03:15.306 --> 01:03:17.432
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, for what?

01:03:17.412 --> 01:03:18.754
[SPEAKER_00]: What is this building to?

01:03:19.435 --> 01:03:19.916
[SPEAKER_00]: Nothing.

01:03:20.517 --> 01:03:21.278
[SPEAKER_00]: Not a thing.

01:03:21.338 --> 01:03:27.669
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I mean, I'm sure, like I can't see any waiver, Kail Rodriguez is on the Mania card.

01:03:28.310 --> 01:03:41.732
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, unless unless they're going to do like, you know, on your, or, you know, a fabulous mullet battle royale, whatever it is, may young battle royale, you know, maybe that maybe she's going to win that, I don't know, but that would be unspacked on probably.

01:03:41.982 --> 01:03:47.772
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah, no, I and EO losing like so the EO loses and she's probably going to end up in a mini match.

01:03:47.972 --> 01:03:48.233
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

01:03:48.533 --> 01:03:50.436
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's that's not very good.

01:03:51.358 --> 01:04:05.762
[SPEAKER_01]: I know I know no, yeah, but yeah, I mean, it was I mean, and the match was disappointing, you know, it was, you know, it's not a very often you have a re the oh match that isn't like the best match on the show and

01:04:06.434 --> 01:04:08.276
[SPEAKER_01]: might have been the worst.

01:04:08.976 --> 01:04:17.384
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe that opener, but I mean, they're all kind of the same, you know, that the pentamax was probably the best match in the show and the other three were kind of the same.

01:04:18.124 --> 01:04:22.568
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, a lot of run-ins lost the interference for you to had her in that way tonight.

01:04:22.708 --> 01:04:36.120
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we close the show with Roman Reigns and denim, which was like the front, denim, Jordan's denim,

01:04:36.590 --> 01:04:39.757
[SPEAKER_00]: And they said, listen, we're not going to talk about hitting each other.

01:04:39.777 --> 01:04:41.341
[SPEAKER_00]: I got to call you old.

01:04:41.401 --> 01:04:43.064
[SPEAKER_00]: We're just going to fight.

01:04:43.646 --> 01:04:46.272
[SPEAKER_00]: And Park had his wrists and hands taped up.

01:04:46.612 --> 01:04:47.394
[SPEAKER_00]: He was ready to go.

01:04:47.875 --> 01:04:51.603
[SPEAKER_00]: And they went to fight and I was like, cool, we don't use a talk.

01:04:51.644 --> 01:04:54.109
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's get the fighting, let's get the scrap in.

01:04:54.089 --> 01:04:55.351
[SPEAKER_00]: really good brawl.

01:04:55.812 --> 01:05:02.545
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we have WWE officials trying to stop a fight because they have to preserve these main events Paul.

01:05:02.805 --> 01:05:06.151
[SPEAKER_00]: They have to preserve the integrity of these main event matches of WrestleMania.

01:05:06.632 --> 01:05:09.297
[SPEAKER_00]: But Roman and Seth, but Roman and

01:05:09.277 --> 01:05:21.098
[SPEAKER_00]: punk keep going at it and eventually punk lands the GTS on Roman Reigns and then he deadlifts him up for a power bomb through the announced table to wrap up the show.

01:05:21.118 --> 01:05:29.113
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going manic and crazy laughing his head off being very sinister and Michael's like get him out here.

01:05:29.173 --> 01:05:30.175
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you see this?

01:05:30.555 --> 01:05:32.078
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a little off his rocker.

01:05:32.058 --> 01:05:32.819
[SPEAKER_00]: I love it.

01:05:32.839 --> 01:05:38.550
[SPEAKER_00]: I love unhinged, seeing punk roaming is folded up like an accordion at ringside.

01:05:38.590 --> 01:05:41.375
[SPEAKER_00]: So they said, we don't have to talk.

01:05:41.876 --> 01:05:42.818
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's just get physical.

01:05:43.198 --> 01:05:45.763
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's sell this via physicality in violence.

01:05:46.164 --> 01:05:49.149
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought, well, that's the way you sell the match.

01:05:49.189 --> 01:05:53.357
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the way you send the message that we are the main event of WrestleMania 42.

01:05:54.974 --> 01:05:56.135
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

01:05:56.275 --> 01:05:56.796
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought it was right.

01:05:56.856 --> 01:06:01.359
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, the only thing I would say against is like, well, we just saw them fight.

01:06:01.620 --> 01:06:04.282
[SPEAKER_01]: What are we waiting for now?

01:06:04.302 --> 01:06:05.803
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like, what are we paying for?

01:06:06.284 --> 01:06:07.425
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like, we've already seen it.

01:06:07.585 --> 01:06:12.709
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's the only thing I thought was kind of weird, because it's like, I kind of want to see the promo battles and then the fight.

01:06:13.310 --> 01:06:14.190
[SPEAKER_01]: Now we've got fight.

01:06:14.771 --> 01:06:16.612
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know what else we got left.

01:06:16.913 --> 01:06:18.834
[SPEAKER_01]: But it was, it was good.

01:06:18.894 --> 01:06:19.675
[SPEAKER_01]: It was interesting.

01:06:19.835 --> 01:06:24.559
[SPEAKER_01]: And the fact

01:06:24.539 --> 01:06:25.761
[SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.

01:06:25.781 --> 01:06:26.542
[SPEAKER_00]: Which is set too.

01:06:27.023 --> 01:06:39.163
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess it is well, you know, good brawl, but they still have two more weeks to verbally sell it and they have to do the final point of it all at the end of the show.

01:06:39.283 --> 01:06:42.328
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm looking forward to how that plays out.

01:06:42.308 --> 01:07:06.983
[SPEAKER_00]: On Monday, Night Raw as we inch towards the end of the road to WrestleMania slowly, but surely, as we quickly get down to some SmackDown business, we alluded to this earlier, that Carmelo Hayes lost his United States Championship to San Jose and as Paul, as you know, the path to WrestleMania is very limited.

01:07:06.963 --> 01:07:09.765
[SPEAKER_00]: that you can't find your way to WrestleMania.

01:07:09.805 --> 01:07:12.348
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, Sammy had no path.

01:07:12.368 --> 01:07:15.110
[SPEAKER_00]: According to Nick Ald, it's like, he's just, I don't have room for you.

01:07:15.170 --> 01:07:20.915
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what I can do for someone that may have invented WrestleMania three years ago.

01:07:21.456 --> 01:07:22.417
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't have space.

01:07:22.897 --> 01:07:29.483
[SPEAKER_00]: So Sammy made his opportunity, called a shot, won the title with an assist from trick Williams who was at ringside.

01:07:29.903 --> 01:07:36.649
[SPEAKER_00]: And now we have Sammy Zane versus trick Williams for the U.S. Championship of

01:07:37.810 --> 01:07:46.001
[SPEAKER_00]: My dear sweet mellow possibly iced out of the main event of this particular match or WrestleMania.

01:07:46.301 --> 01:07:47.763
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't think it's me the main event.

01:07:48.244 --> 01:07:50.166
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I can bring damn it.

01:07:50.207 --> 01:07:50.867
[SPEAKER_01]: I can do it.

01:07:50.887 --> 01:07:51.128
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no.

01:07:51.548 --> 01:07:53.271
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I mean, it does make sense.

01:07:53.291 --> 01:07:55.393
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, this is like Sammy and trick is a match.

01:07:55.954 --> 01:08:02.603
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it's funny because logically, there was no spot for Sammy.

01:08:02.785 --> 01:08:12.071
[SPEAKER_01]: But trick has a spot, so I, you know, like it, you know, that's not if I'm mellow, I'm probably upset about that.

01:08:12.552 --> 01:08:17.807
[SPEAKER_01]: And I would think probably what's going to happen is tricks going to win that title at me and then maybe he's going to feud with mellow.

01:08:17.787 --> 01:08:38.935
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, for the next, you know, maybe I could see trick putting it into the, you know, open challenge, he's like, no, no, no, no, you guys got to earn a shot at trick daddy, you know, and, and then that's how you end up, you know, eventually, and then Mark Carmelo's mad because, you know, he's, he's upsetting the legacy, so maybe even as Ilia go after him too, because Ilia and trick.

01:08:38.915 --> 01:08:43.099
[SPEAKER_01]: as I'm sure you remember had some pretty awesome matches in an XT.

01:08:43.239 --> 01:08:45.261
[SPEAKER_01]: And Ali has always brought out the best in trick.

01:08:45.601 --> 01:08:49.204
[SPEAKER_01]: It actually made him look better than I think he was back then.

01:08:49.344 --> 01:09:01.515
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, I could see trick winning and then you know having the next six months of just having matches to get better and defending the title and being in a main event position on the television show, which would you be good?

01:09:02.035 --> 01:09:03.717
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, so sex from L.O.

01:09:03.757 --> 01:09:08.601
[SPEAKER_01]: for now, but he's got a role and triple H.

01:09:09.087 --> 01:09:10.169
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, thanks so too.

01:09:10.189 --> 01:09:12.293
[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully he's rewarded with something at WrestleMania.

01:09:12.813 --> 01:09:13.435
[SPEAKER_00]: That's my help.

01:09:13.535 --> 01:09:23.853
[SPEAKER_00]: Sexaluse, this title, so close to WrestleMania, but clearly they see a bigger match or Sammy and trick and Sammy can give trick a great match at WrestleMania.

01:09:23.873 --> 01:09:26.978
[SPEAKER_00]: And clearly, the fan's going to be pro trick.

01:09:26.958 --> 01:09:28.360
[SPEAKER_00]: That's going to be the easiest match.

01:09:28.420 --> 01:09:33.067
[SPEAKER_00]: Same we can do to lean it to being a heal because trick is going to be beloved that night.

01:09:33.227 --> 01:09:38.474
[SPEAKER_00]: Whenever the match takes place in WrestleMania, I do hope that Melo finds his way there.

01:09:38.514 --> 01:09:51.012
[SPEAKER_00]: And as you said, Elia was a great opponent of a trick on NXT years ago, and they can tap into that once again, whenever the time calls for it, to even help trick get more refinement on main roster as a top to your star.

01:09:51.032 --> 01:09:56.560
[SPEAKER_00]: They already see the vision.

01:09:56.540 --> 01:10:00.266
[SPEAKER_00]: is put him against great guys that can bring out the best in him as a worker.

01:10:01.548 --> 01:10:02.990
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep, totally agree.

01:10:03.551 --> 01:10:06.255
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, and then we have to talk about jelly roll.

01:10:06.876 --> 01:10:13.706
[SPEAKER_00]: Now Paul, I read your comments on discord last week that jelly roll was great on Smackdown.

01:10:13.806 --> 01:10:14.988
[SPEAKER_00]: Played his role very well.

01:10:15.048 --> 01:10:23.661
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that we had a little bit of jelly roll overload and oversatuation on Smackdown,

01:10:24.282 --> 01:10:27.506
[SPEAKER_00]: We're on the road to WrestleMania with all due respect.

01:10:28.307 --> 01:10:36.518
[SPEAKER_00]: I denied to see jelly roll in multiple stir lines and segments offering words of wisdom as if he's Oprah.

01:10:37.299 --> 01:10:38.461
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't need that.

01:10:39.002 --> 01:10:43.708
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a lot for him to be backstage to have a match.

01:10:43.688 --> 01:10:49.440
[SPEAKER_00]: To be in the main event angle with Randy and Cody, it was too much jelly roll.

01:10:49.840 --> 01:10:51.925
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't want to have them dominate your show.

01:10:52.345 --> 01:10:57.195
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it was a little bit too much praise that we before saying, well, people loved them.

01:10:57.556 --> 01:10:58.698
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's double down, no.

01:10:58.879 --> 01:10:59.540
[SPEAKER_00]: That's just more.

01:10:59.580 --> 01:11:01.484
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought that he was a little bit overexposed.

01:11:01.865 --> 01:11:04.009
[SPEAKER_00]: This week on WWE Television.

01:11:04.411 --> 01:11:06.494
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I had the same comment this week.

01:11:06.514 --> 01:11:08.196
[SPEAKER_01]: I, you know, I like Jelly Roll, my fan.

01:11:08.236 --> 01:11:15.606
[SPEAKER_01]: I like his music, I think he's been, I think he's done a good job for the most part in WWE and then stuff he's been given to do.

01:11:15.646 --> 01:11:18.250
[SPEAKER_01]: And but this week, there was just too much.

01:11:18.550 --> 01:11:24.799
[SPEAKER_01]: Like obviously, I think the being in the main event segment was important and you know, and he's got whatever he's doing with Kit Wilson.

01:11:24.779 --> 01:11:27.363
[SPEAKER_01]: is I'm sure leading somewhere for WrestleMania.

01:11:27.403 --> 01:11:30.768
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you want to put him in both of those segments, I suppose that's fine.

01:11:30.828 --> 01:11:42.687
[SPEAKER_01]: But as you said, he was in just random segments, like just interacting with people and I mean, it is refreshing to have like a real life celebrity, you know, because jelly rolls a big star.

01:11:42.667 --> 01:11:52.405
[SPEAKER_01]: and to have him be on the show and interacting with the undercard talent, like he clearly is a fan and watches the show, knows their names, knows their storylines.

01:11:52.987 --> 01:11:58.778
[SPEAKER_01]: So that is refreshing because most of the time, you know, the celebrities are there for their segment.

01:11:59.439 --> 01:12:03.747
[SPEAKER_01]: And you're lucky if they remember the name of the person they're sharing a camera with.

01:12:03.727 --> 01:12:05.649
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, let alone, you know, everybody else.

01:12:05.889 --> 01:12:09.513
[SPEAKER_01]: So I did like that part, but again, yeah, it was it was just way too much.

01:12:10.374 --> 01:12:20.664
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, you know, and WWE has a tendency to do that, you know, and they're even doing it with that in house a little bit like they're putting him on maybe a little bit more than they should because he's, you know, gets a reaction every time.

01:12:21.144 --> 01:12:22.866
[SPEAKER_01]: And the crowd did react to him.

01:12:23.066 --> 01:12:28.452
[SPEAKER_01]: So I mean, there was that like his match with he might have been like the third most over guy on the show.

01:12:29.352 --> 01:12:31.995
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, behind Randy and Charlotte.

01:12:31.975 --> 01:12:35.767
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, you know, like they were, let's go jelly like it's matching.

01:12:35.787 --> 01:12:37.311
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that was the other thing.

01:12:37.332 --> 01:12:40.120
[SPEAKER_01]: That match with Kill Wilson went way too long.

01:12:40.160 --> 01:12:45.597
[SPEAKER_01]: It was fine, but I mean, you know, could have been an email.

01:12:47.433 --> 01:12:49.456
[SPEAKER_00]: It could have been absolutely right on that.

01:12:49.576 --> 01:12:51.539
[SPEAKER_00]: So a little bit to my jelly row.

01:12:51.559 --> 01:12:56.487
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see how they handle his appearances on SmackDown, heading into WrestleMania.

01:12:57.108 --> 01:12:58.610
[SPEAKER_00]: And that was SmackDown basically.

01:12:58.630 --> 01:13:01.255
[SPEAKER_00]: We are Randy and Cody have a brawl.

01:13:01.675 --> 01:13:06.262
[SPEAKER_00]: They feel like it was a slow motion, RKO to jelly roll, to wrap up the segment.

01:13:06.322 --> 01:13:11.871
[SPEAKER_00]: We still need Cody to verbalize the why.

01:13:12.172 --> 01:13:13.394
[SPEAKER_00]: the why we're here.

01:13:13.975 --> 01:13:28.018
[SPEAKER_00]: And he has two smackdowns to do it, essentially, probably just to want to do it, but you do have two chances, maybe three to really heartsell this of WrestleMania, because right now Randy's not going to get booed playing a simple.

01:13:28.398 --> 01:13:32.425
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Cody's going to have to embrace whatever it is he needs to embrace.

01:13:32.926 --> 01:13:35.430
[SPEAKER_00]: Just realize you're not going to be the favorite here.

01:13:35.790 --> 01:13:39.276
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going to have your fans, but on this night and maybe for future nights.

01:13:39.256 --> 01:13:53.603
[SPEAKER_00]: it's going to be Randy getting over and whoever is the extra voice in his ear and in his head is going to reveal itself a WrestleMania and you're going to have to find a way to navigate that to whenever the story ends after WrestleMania potentially.

01:13:54.528 --> 01:14:09.081
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he I think that I think that they actually know that Cody's going to get booed in there and they're even leaning into it because even that segment was Stephanie tonight ended with Cody being booed after saying thank you to Stephanie who had just slapped him.

01:14:09.741 --> 01:14:14.025
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't think that they thought that he was going to get cheered for that line.

01:14:14.866 --> 01:14:23.353
[SPEAKER_01]: So you know, it is it is a step up from 2018 when they were fighting their fans and going

01:14:23.333 --> 01:14:31.604
[SPEAKER_01]: to get the opposite reaction that was pretty obvious they were going to get in this case it feels like they're booking things to get the reaction they know they're going to get.

01:14:32.265 --> 01:14:37.532
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, so they could try to push Cody as a baby face and give him lines that are designed.

01:14:38.052 --> 01:14:43.139
[SPEAKER_01]: But I mean, they know that they figured out that doesn't matter what they do, the fans are going to cheer Randy.

01:14:43.179 --> 01:14:49.307
[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll tell our story like Randy's going to be like a vicious heel and Cody's

01:14:49.287 --> 01:14:52.133
[SPEAKER_01]: But we know the fans are going to boocode and cheer Andy.

01:14:52.454 --> 01:14:57.845
[SPEAKER_01]: So we're going to give them things to do that's designed to get them the reaction that we know they're going to get.

01:14:58.607 --> 01:15:02.335
[SPEAKER_01]: So it looks like we're controlling the audience, even though they're really not.

01:15:02.990 --> 01:15:08.336
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the audience has decided Cody is the heel and Randy's the baby face doesn't.

01:15:08.396 --> 01:15:09.638
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't care what your story is.

01:15:10.078 --> 01:15:15.685
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what that's what we're deciding and WWE is now leaning into that.

01:15:16.526 --> 01:15:23.674
[SPEAKER_01]: They're not going to tell a story where Cody is a heel because when this is over, unless they want to turn a meal and then, you know, I suppose that's a possibility.

01:15:23.694 --> 01:15:30.482
[SPEAKER_01]: But if the idea is once the feud with Randy's over, he's back to being a baby face, they don't want to tell a story that makes him a heel.

01:15:30.462 --> 01:15:39.325
[SPEAKER_01]: So they're giving him little lines and little things to do that are going to get him booed, but at the end of the day, he'll go back to playing his regular role once this match with Randy's over.

01:15:40.857 --> 01:15:41.979
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, great points as well.

01:15:41.999 --> 01:15:46.204
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see how they will navigate and heading into the heart of WrestleMania season.

01:15:46.705 --> 01:15:49.288
[SPEAKER_00]: Looking forward to what happens on SmackDown this Friday.

01:15:49.308 --> 01:15:52.933
[SPEAKER_00]: Two SmackDowns to go before WrestleMania.

01:15:53.334 --> 01:16:00.664
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll see what Cody has to say after his confrontation with Stephanie on tonight's episode of Monday Night Raw.

01:16:00.684 --> 01:16:02.827
[SPEAKER_00]: Or he avenged Jelly Row.

01:16:03.187 --> 01:16:04.509
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the more pressing question.

01:16:04.830 --> 01:16:06.612
[SPEAKER_00]: Will he avenge his friend?

01:16:06.997 --> 01:16:08.660
[SPEAKER_00]: we don't know, to be determined.

01:16:09.220 --> 01:16:13.667
[SPEAKER_00]: But before we leave you all for this week, I want to touch briefly on NXT.

01:16:14.028 --> 01:16:18.415
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't talk about NXT very much, but I do want to call out one segment.

01:16:18.855 --> 01:16:22.240
[SPEAKER_00]: And it was the sole Ruka Zarya segment from last Tuesday.

01:16:22.260 --> 01:16:23.062
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

01:16:23.082 --> 01:16:26.507
[SPEAKER_00]: And I want to talk about it in the sense of,

01:16:26.487 --> 01:16:53.305
[SPEAKER_00]: I understood what they were trying to do, but my Lord, they failed, and then so Ruka gave up on her promo when she stumbled when she mentioned John Cena and his last night in WWE, Saturday Night's main event, John Cena's farewell match in WWE when she mentioned all of the opportunities she was given when she tripped on that, that's when she gave up on the promo and I was like, oh no, when you give up on the promo and you lose your train of thought,

01:16:53.285 --> 01:17:11.008
[SPEAKER_00]: there goes the crowd and they kept going and going and going like the energizer bunnies are you came out there and I thought that she was way more confident on the microphone believe the material that she was saying and when it was all said and done she was deemed the one that was the wronged party at the fans when it's get behind.

01:17:11.089 --> 01:17:20.541
[SPEAKER_00]: So my advice to soul get the hell out of NXT as soon as you can before they really get you out of there in terms of

01:17:20.521 --> 01:17:21.963
[SPEAKER_00]: just they would turn on you.

01:17:22.284 --> 01:17:24.507
[SPEAKER_00]: Historically speaking, they would turn on you.

01:17:25.449 --> 01:17:26.791
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I forgot in about that.

01:17:26.931 --> 01:17:28.033
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you're not wrong.

01:17:28.373 --> 01:17:34.062
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and this one is this, now this is like I was just talking about Cody and Randy.

01:17:34.723 --> 01:17:35.845
[SPEAKER_01]: That's not what's happening here.

01:17:36.205 --> 01:17:42.495
[SPEAKER_01]: Like they're trying to make sold a baby face and trying to make Zarya the heel and the fans are having none of it.

01:17:42.610 --> 01:17:46.735
[SPEAKER_01]: and the the bookers are not leaning into it.

01:17:47.215 --> 01:17:51.600
[SPEAKER_01]: They're just, we don't care what the fans want, Seoul is going to be the baby face.

01:17:51.640 --> 01:17:52.601
[SPEAKER_01]: Zarya is going to be the heal.

01:17:53.342 --> 01:17:55.805
[SPEAKER_01]: And the fans are saying, we don't care what your story is.

01:17:56.466 --> 01:17:58.228
[SPEAKER_01]: We like Zarya, we don't like Seoul.

01:17:58.949 --> 01:18:11.503
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, she needs to get the hell out of there and go to the main roster where she's going to be the baby face that she's supposed

01:18:11.483 --> 01:18:24.413
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, event probably, but on raw fact on people are going to are going to be cheering her and, you know, she should be right up there with the EOs and the Bailey's and Charlotte's and all that within about six months.

01:18:24.764 --> 01:18:33.439
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so we need to just do this as San Angeliver, let the years to want to get her out of there because I do not want to trap an ant vortex for six months.

01:18:33.459 --> 01:18:36.805
[SPEAKER_00]: The let's try her as a heel to see how dynamic you could be.

01:18:36.825 --> 01:18:40.070
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, after we can do that later in life, get her out of there.

01:18:40.491 --> 01:18:48.004
[SPEAKER_01]: Sorry, sorry, I should just wax JC Jane for that title and go on like a rampage for like six months and then you can call her up too.

01:18:47.984 --> 01:18:51.048
[SPEAKER_00]: agreed, just like, let's get through Saturday.

01:18:51.108 --> 01:18:51.849
[SPEAKER_00]: That's to go.

01:18:51.889 --> 01:18:53.150
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's get through Saturday.

01:18:53.210 --> 01:18:54.952
[SPEAKER_00]: Let them have a great match.

01:18:54.992 --> 01:18:57.075
[SPEAKER_00]: The fans are going to fan whatever they're going to do.

01:18:57.095 --> 01:18:57.495
[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to do.

01:18:58.156 --> 01:18:59.277
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's get so out of there.

01:18:59.658 --> 01:19:01.400
[SPEAKER_01]: They're in New York tomorrow night.

01:19:01.420 --> 01:19:04.624
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, they just already is getting cheered and sold.

01:19:05.084 --> 01:19:11.832
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, the go home show for saying in deliver a show that is not completely put together yet.

01:19:12.031 --> 01:19:18.890
[SPEAKER_00]: because it is close but still like you are putting together matches with three days notice essentially.

01:19:19.392 --> 01:19:22.881
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'll take anything over the one they added last week.

01:19:23.784 --> 01:19:26.732
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, facts, I will agree with you there.

01:19:27.050 --> 01:19:45.160
[SPEAKER_00]: Lord, in XT, we will pray over the in one day I hope that I can talk about y'all again with enthusiasm and heart and and compassion, but right now I have very little for that show it is yeah I'd rather at this point I'd rather watch NCIS origins than wow in XT yeah.

01:19:45.528 --> 01:19:53.721
[SPEAKER_00]: I would rather watch royal cards on the CW than watching X2, the Canadian import, which I am entertained by.

01:19:53.881 --> 01:20:02.815
[SPEAKER_00]: I fell into that Twitter more of the couple and their love hate relationship and the guy going back to this girl and leaving my girl high and dry.

01:20:03.175 --> 01:20:04.117
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm intrigued now.

01:20:04.457 --> 01:20:10.827
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't give me a love story line that I can't have for five years or 30 years and watching SVU.

01:20:10.807 --> 01:20:12.210
[SPEAKER_01]: American love story.

01:20:12.791 --> 01:20:14.694
[SPEAKER_01]: JfK and Carolyn Bersett.

01:20:14.715 --> 01:20:16.358
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd rather watch that than NXT.

01:20:17.039 --> 01:20:18.161
[SPEAKER_01]: We can do this all night.

01:20:18.903 --> 01:20:22.750
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, anything with Ryan Murphy and or Brad Felchuk producing it.

01:20:22.830 --> 01:20:23.171
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm there.

01:20:23.652 --> 01:20:24.754
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, okay.

01:20:25.195 --> 01:20:25.956
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the beauty.

01:20:25.976 --> 01:20:27.519
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the beauty.

01:20:27.639 --> 01:20:29.122
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, look at you chatting at all the shows.

01:20:29.603 --> 01:20:30.465
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, love the beauty.

01:20:30.986 --> 01:20:32.088
[SPEAKER_02]: Alrighty.

01:20:32.108 --> 01:20:32.629
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.

01:20:32.609 --> 01:20:38.094
[SPEAKER_00]: So as we have Paul here before we go, it was a tradition for a long time.

01:20:38.114 --> 01:20:51.608
[SPEAKER_00]: The anytime the Paul was on the show, guilty pleasures, the thing that you know is wrong, but it's right to love and appreciate despite how wrong it might be.

01:20:52.208 --> 01:21:02.278
[SPEAKER_01]: Is there a guilty pleasure out there for you in WWE?

01:21:02.258 --> 01:21:23.676
[SPEAKER_01]: It's stuff that she's doing with the her undead realm and the seven deadly sins and bring it back all these TNA legends for these stupid segments I I should hate them, but I I love them unironically it's it's just the most ridiculous the bunny alley is with her in all these segments and

01:21:23.656 --> 01:21:39.032
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, she thinks that it's just like normal even though like they're in like the undead realm and and Rosemary is like trying to know sell it and Alice is like, Hi, how are you and it's like it's just so stupid, but it's stupid in the best way.

01:21:39.012 --> 01:21:42.036
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, that is, that is the very definition of a guilty pleasure.

01:21:42.817 --> 01:21:47.524
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, today in a impact on AMC, a guilty pleasure every week if you tune in.

01:21:48.124 --> 01:21:50.107
[SPEAKER_00]: Mine is kit Wilson.

01:21:50.808 --> 01:21:51.169
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, God.

01:21:51.189 --> 01:21:51.429
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

01:21:51.609 --> 01:21:52.651
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he's the best.

01:21:53.131 --> 01:21:55.114
[SPEAKER_00]: He's leaned into the gimmick.

01:21:55.515 --> 01:21:56.236
[SPEAKER_00]: Catch you song.

01:21:56.256 --> 01:21:57.577
[SPEAKER_00]: They can be singing a WrestleMania.

01:21:57.738 --> 01:22:01.363
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm telling you, he did write, he has a couple of his rhymes that he had this week.

01:22:01.403 --> 01:22:02.404
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not good.

01:22:02.384 --> 01:22:04.949
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, he could he rhyme mother and lover.

01:22:05.009 --> 01:22:10.039
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, and profit and something that doesn't rhyme with profit.

01:22:10.099 --> 01:22:11.422
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't remember what it was.

01:22:11.442 --> 01:22:22.384
[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, so it'll not so good with the rhymes, but he yeah he is he's love, love kid Wilson.

01:22:22.786 --> 01:22:26.472
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, out of a tough situation, not that's a great situation.

01:22:26.713 --> 01:22:27.354
[SPEAKER_00]: It is for him.

01:22:27.674 --> 01:22:28.937
[SPEAKER_00]: It is like a male Chelsea.

01:22:29.498 --> 01:22:30.299
[SPEAKER_00]: He is.

01:22:30.399 --> 01:22:33.104
[SPEAKER_00]: He is a male Chelsea and watch him get over there.

01:22:33.124 --> 01:22:36.450
[SPEAKER_00]: Appreciate people that take something and make it out of nothing.

01:22:36.470 --> 01:22:39.495
[SPEAKER_01]: It's almost charting in the UK a couple of months ago.

01:22:39.475 --> 01:22:43.888
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and what I heard the inspiration like Jade, I love Jade from the UK.

01:22:44.208 --> 01:22:50.406
[SPEAKER_00]: I said clearly somebody is a Jade fan to be inspired with that beat and the song.

01:22:50.426 --> 01:22:54.598
[SPEAKER_00]: So I call it I have a good ear now they're going to change it next week.

01:22:54.899 --> 01:22:57.883
[SPEAKER_00]: No, unless you have James sing it for real.

01:22:57.923 --> 01:22:58.203
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

01:22:58.744 --> 01:22:59.625
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, that'd be great.

01:22:59.866 --> 01:23:06.955
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah Listen down housing if you may be going with WWE I would have said down housing because he is great.

01:23:07.195 --> 01:23:12.643
[SPEAKER_01]: He's yeah I was I hated when and you know he popped out of that box with that was elimination J.

01:23:12.663 --> 01:23:12.923
[SPEAKER_01]: But right.

01:23:12.943 --> 01:23:18.190
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we buried everything and every statement he's done since then has proven me wrong

01:23:18.355 --> 01:23:21.278
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm that was not great, but everything else.

01:23:21.598 --> 01:23:22.339
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

01:23:22.359 --> 01:23:28.205
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but he's definitely achieved the dream and he has made licensed print money.

01:23:28.225 --> 01:23:29.846
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, God bless him.

01:23:29.886 --> 01:23:32.949
[SPEAKER_00]: He has lived the dream and he's accomplished an amazing goal.

01:23:33.249 --> 01:23:37.213
[SPEAKER_00]: You had a flop day view and then you had an amazing read day view backstage.

01:23:37.734 --> 01:23:41.017
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and now he's like he's a WWE Hall of Famer.

01:23:41.057 --> 01:23:41.858
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a legend.

01:23:42.418 --> 01:23:44.000
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a multi billionaire.

01:23:44.821 --> 01:23:46.202
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's awesome.

01:23:47.836 --> 01:23:48.317
[SPEAKER_01]: I love that.

01:23:48.397 --> 01:23:58.268
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's cursing people left right in center and every time he curses them that you get cursed you're you're fucked like I'm sorry like do you think it's on track down?

01:23:58.308 --> 01:24:04.535
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I've never seen him not to shovel the right bottom shoes gone like you know what's of your shoes.

01:24:05.116 --> 01:24:10.722
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and it's there was like he looked like how flutter to his hair.

01:24:10.702 --> 01:24:14.068
[SPEAKER_00]: before the cut before the cut.

01:24:14.128 --> 01:24:14.528
