1:39

to another episode of What's

1:41

Wrong With Wrestling? I'm Andrew Pizano

1:43

along with my brother Joe Pizano

1:46

and Eric Slamelton Hamilton. Shit's getting

1:48

real. Uh-huh. Shit's getting real. They're

1:50

saying shit on the show. Wow.

1:52

Yeah. The word shit's getting real.

1:54

That's what you meant. And yes.

1:56

I mean this show is getting

1:59

shit. Not that. hasn't been at

2:01

times, but I mean, we had

2:03

a couple of great segments for

2:05

Roman Seth and punk. And then

2:07

we had the train wreck that

2:09

was Tiffany Shratton. Oh, there was

2:11

just one. One train wreck? Well,

2:13

I mean, when you take every,

2:15

I mean, that is just like

2:17

on a whole other level from

2:19

the rest of them. I mean,

2:21

my God, I'm almost looking forward

2:23

to talking about that. more than

2:25

everything else. Right. My God, that

2:27

was so fucking terrible. How is

2:29

this on TV? Right. How embarrassing

2:31

for Charlotte to come out dressed

2:33

like her granddaughter. Oh my God.

2:35

I had my own Charlotte joke.

2:37

I'm gonna save it for later

2:39

since you just made one, but

2:41

yeah. And I think that night

2:43

two main event should be this

2:45

triple threat. It's the entire story

2:47

of the show right now. That's

2:49

true. I mean, Cody and John

2:51

were even on the show. Who's

2:53

Cody? Who's John? Yeah. That's the

2:55

one thing that we have, you

2:57

know, you have to count your

2:59

blessings. All right? That's what your

3:01

mother always taught you to count

3:03

your blessings. Yeah. And we do

3:05

have to count our blessings because

3:07

this week, Smackdown and Raw, there

3:09

was no Cody Rhodes. Wow. So

3:11

we thank you, WWW for that.

3:13

Who fucking cares? Oh yeah I

3:15

wasn't lost. Cody's been listening to

3:18

the fans and they're like hey

3:20

are you gonna be uh you

3:22

gonna work this week too and

3:24

he's like enough yeah yeah he's

3:26

had enough I mean we've also

3:28

had enough he got buried last

3:30

week yeah so maybe he's embarrassed

3:32

he's trying to you know dig

3:34

his way out right it's not

3:36

gonna be easy yeah he might

3:38

have brandy go on a verbal

3:40

war with John Sina. Oh boy.

3:42

But yeah, like, you know, open

3:44

mic night. Well, she will lose

3:46

huge. We talked about it last

3:48

week, how Sina redeemed his heel

3:50

character with that promo. Yeah. But

3:52

still, at the end of the

3:54

day, like, Sina versus Cody, I

3:56

don't think it's going to be

3:58

that good of a match. I

4:00

mean, like we said, Sina hasn't

4:02

wrestled full-time full-time. When was the

4:04

last really good scene a match?

4:06

Like since he's been back and

4:08

he has a couple matches a

4:10

year, maybe one or two, like

4:12

they're mostly very safe. Again, he

4:14

can't risk getting injured. Right. Because

4:16

he still has to film shit.

4:18

Yeah, you know, he's, he just

4:20

finished filming the matchbox car movie.

4:22

So, you know, who knows what's

4:24

next? The who? It's fast and

4:26

furious for children. Right, I'm sure.

4:28

Of course. Right. I thought fast

4:30

and furious multi-verse. I thought that

4:32

was for children. Wow, yeah. So

4:34

into the fast verse. But all

4:36

right, it is a big show.

4:38

We have a lot to cover,

4:40

but first we have to thank

4:42

a new patron. So thank you

4:44

5:15

the paper views including AEW Dynasty,

5:17

which was this past Sunday, and

5:19

that was a lot of fun.

5:21

And that's my brain exploding. And

5:23

they just had. a big return

5:25

also. The balding bucks made their

5:27

return and they suck more than

5:29

ever. Didn't they, I mean, this

5:31

is just for me looking at

5:33

internet stuff. Hey, what didn't I

5:35

tell you about that? Didn't they

5:37

run away from the guys that

5:39

they helped the last time we

5:41

saw them? Aren't they like kind

5:43

of running away from Moxley's crew?

5:45

The young bucks? Yeah. I have

5:47

no idea. Yeah. Come on. I

5:49

just, I have no idea. Yeah.

5:51

Now they're with them. Oh, it's

5:53

just a mess. Are they a

5:55

mess? So yeah, you also get

5:57

all the brackets. Yeah, go to

5:59

patreon.com/what's wrong with wrestling. Of course,

6:01

WrestleMania is just two weeks away.

6:03

So that recap will be on

6:05

there as well. Yes, it will.

6:07

Go check it out. Wow. All

6:09

right, Smackdown in Chicago opens with

6:11

none other than. Chicago's own CM

6:13

Punk, of course. Yeah, I come

6:15

out first. He says, I was

6:18

told the best crowds were overseas,

6:20

but then I heard we were

6:22

going to Chicago and he grabs

6:24

the camera to film the crowd.

6:26

And the crowd's going CM, C-M-C-N-Punk,

6:28

C-M-C-M-C-N-C-N-Punk, right? Not this time. But

6:30

they're the, but he said, these

6:32

are the best crowds. The best

6:34

crowds sing and hijack the show

6:36

the whole time, right? They did

6:38

do it for Roman rains. Yeah,

6:40

they did the Roman, Roman rains

6:42

again. So, I mean, they did

6:44

do it. Oh, God, it's spreading.

6:46

But weren't they just making fun

6:48

of? I don't think they were

6:50

making fun of it. But I

6:52

think they just wanted to do

6:54

it. Like, oh, that sounded cool.

6:56

Yeah, and then they did it

6:58

and they're like, those were probably

7:00

some of the fans, they were

7:02

probably at both shows, you know,

7:04

you know, Greenshirt Guy did the

7:06

European tour. Yeah, he was like,

7:08

I'm doing the tour. Yeah. Also,

7:10

Brock Lesner Guy, Smackdown starts, Brock

7:12

Lesner Guy, and Chris Van Vlee

7:14

were right behind commentary. Very weird.

7:16

It's just an interesting thing because

7:18

Brock Lesner Guy is just a

7:20

fan, whereas. Chris Van Vleet is

7:22

a very successful podcaster. Yeah. The

7:24

two of them together. I wonder

7:26

if he's like, Chris Van Vleet's

7:28

like, guess who my next guest

7:30

is? Brock Lesner. God. Yeah, right.

7:32

So that was kind of funny.

7:34

Maybe Brock Lesner. My guy was

7:36

pitching that the whole time. You

7:38

know, he could be new show.

7:40

He'd be like, I have Brock

7:42

Lesner. Guy! And he's still wearing

7:44

the same shirt that he's been

7:47

wearing for 13 fucking years. Well,

7:49

I ordered a box of 100,

7:51

so... No, he just never washed

7:53

it. Well, Chris, thanks for inviting

7:55

me. My real name is shut

7:57

the fuck up, your Brock Lesner

7:59

guy. That's all you're ever gonna

8:01

be. You don't ever know your

8:03

role. The punk, live the fucking

8:05

gimmick. We should interview him because

8:07

you know you would do it.

8:09

And then like when we talked

8:11

to him, we're just like, now

8:13

Brock Lesner guy, how many shows

8:15

have you been to? He's like,

8:17

well, I've been to like 2,000

8:19

shows and it's like, okay, thanks.

8:21

And you know, Brock Lesner guy,

8:23

how much have you paid for

8:25

all of all of these tickets?

8:27

No, and then just trick him

8:29

into thinking he's important, like, like, I don't,

8:31

like, how important do you think your role

8:33

with, like, Brock Lesnar in the company is, like,

8:36

the fact that when Brock comes out, they cut to you if

8:38

you're there, like, yeah, that's a huge part of the show, right?

8:40

It is, it is, yeah, it sure is. Yeah, without me, they

8:42

couldn't have the show. Do they pay you? No, I pay them,

8:44

I pay them, I pay them, I, I, I, I, I, I,

8:46

I, I pay them, I, I, I, I, I, I pay them,

8:49

I, I, I, I, I pay them, I, I, I, I, I,

8:51

I, I, I pay them, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

8:53

pay them, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,

8:55

I, I, I, I So punk says I was born with a

8:57

cord around my neck, I came out blue, because I'm not supposed

9:00

to be here. His whole promo was, you know, I'm not supposed

9:02

to be here, but when he mentioned this, this was reminiscent of

9:04

an old A-W promo, where he said I

9:06

came out with a cord wrapped around my

9:08

neck, because they've been trying to kill me

9:10

since the day I was born. I did

9:13

remind me of that. And then he says,

9:15

I don't know if you've heard this, but

9:17

I'm in the main event of Wrestlement of

9:19

Wrestlemania. Mocks the rocks goosebumps

9:22

bullshit. I love it which is so

9:24

great it is because it's like you

9:26

know He's probably not getting a

9:28

match with the rock, but it makes it

9:30

feel so much bigger that he's he's the

9:33

one mentioning the rock No one's mentioned

9:35

the rock John Sina has not mentioned

9:37

the rock has not talked about the

9:39

rock right that's like one of the

9:41

craziest things ever someone said what if

9:44

after a bash at the beach? You

9:46

know, Holkogan turns, he joins the NWO,

9:48

he joins Hall of Nash, and then

9:50

for the next month, he doesn't even

9:52

mention Hall of Nash. He's not seen

9:54

with Hall of Nash. Right, right. It

9:56

makes no sense. Zero sense. The way

9:58

they've done this is. certainly not the

10:00

best. No. But then the fans chant,

10:03

you deserve it, and punk says, I

10:05

deserve it, I earned it. And he

10:07

gets an even bigger round of applause.

10:10

Yeah. And then he mentions, you know,

10:12

the whole, I'm not supposed to be

10:14

here. He mentions being an extra for

10:17

John Sina's Wrestlemania entrance. Right. He, I

10:19

was dressed as alcapone in John Sina's

10:21

mob car. And they said, that's as

10:24

good as it gets for you kid,

10:26

you're not supposed to be here. Like

10:28

again, just a really fucking great promo.

10:31

He thanks the fans along with his

10:33

wife and his dog. He promises to

10:35

whoop Seth Rollins and Roman Reins his

10:37

asses at mania. But then we hear,

10:40

ladies and gentlemen, and Paul Hayman walks

10:42

out, he sucks off punk, punk's at

10:44

all. I mean that's what Haman does,

10:47

right? Yeah. The fans do an ECW

10:49

champ, but Haman says, ask not what

10:51

you can do for your wise man.

10:54

Ask instead what your wise man can

10:56

do for you. Wow. And then he

10:58

tells punk, God damn it, you belong

11:01

here, you belong in this ring, you

11:03

belong in Chicago, and you belong in

11:05

the main event of Wrestle mania. And

11:08

then Haman mentions punk doing him a

11:10

favorite war games, and he asked punk,

11:12

do me a favor. Tell me what

11:14

the favor is. Because Roman Reigns is

11:17

coming here later and you know how

11:19

these Samowans get when they're angry. Yeah,

11:21

it's pretty funny. You got all punchy

11:24

on their spouses. And then punk says,

11:26

I want to tell him to his

11:28

face, so let me know when Big

11:31

Chief decides to show up. So, you

11:33

know, saving it for the... Last segment

11:35

of the show, obviously. The end, right.

11:38

Oh, he's not here yet? That's what

11:40

we're going with. Yeah, and thank, you

11:42

know, thank goodness, Roman showed up with

11:44

10 minutes to spare. Yeah, right, showed

11:47

up, you know, two hours and 50

11:49

minutes late for work. And you know,

11:51

this is, I'm not like bitching here

11:54

because this isn't really a pet peeve.

11:56

I just think it was cooler in

11:58

the attitude era when the wrestlers showed

12:01

up. When the wrestlers showed up, It's

12:03

out of the back of the car.

12:05

Then on Ross, Seth, Seth showed up.

12:08

He got out of the back of

12:10

the car. And I guess when, you

12:12

know, when Punk did it a few

12:15

months ago, he was driving. So sometimes

12:17

he did it. But I guess Roman's

12:19

character is still like, Roman was basically

12:21

a heel later on Smackdown, but you

12:24

know. Not everybody's gonna show up with

12:26

a Bigfoot stone cold truck. No, sure,

12:28

I know. But it is cooler when

12:31

like they're driving their own car, not,

12:33

oh, I'm being escorted here because I'm

12:35

such a big star. Yeah, but you

12:38

know what happens? Sid knows what happens

12:40

when you drive your own car. That's

12:42

true. Yeah. 22. Yeah. Stone Parking Spot

12:45

Twenty-Two. Oh my God! What happened in

12:47

my car? Vangelike, we'll take Ronald Card.

12:49

We're good. We're good. Still waiting for

12:52

him. We'll waiting for him to open

12:54

for him to open an acting for

12:56

him to open in acting school. Yeah.

12:58

Oh, he's dead. I know. That's why

13:01

I'm still waiting. That's still going to

13:03

be waiting a while. All right, our

13:05

first match of Smackdown. We've got Nathan

13:08

Frazier from Fraxium on NxT. I've heard

13:10

of this guy. Versus, that's good. I

13:12

know that reference. Versus the in-ring W-W-E

13:15

debut of Ray Phoenix. Yes. and this

13:17

didn't go as well as Penta's in

13:19

ring debut. I'll just say that. Yeah.

13:22

There were a few botches. Sure. Too

13:24

many flippity dues. You know what I

13:26

mean? If you're doing too many, you're

13:28

gonna have some mess-ups. Fraser went for

13:31

a suicide dive, but the bright lights

13:33

were too much for him because he

13:35

botched it. I don't know. Phoenix jumped

13:38

off the top rope to land on

13:40

Fraser outside the ring. Phoenix did his

13:42

spot where he runs on the top

13:45

rope and then kicks the guy in

13:47

the face. And then Phoenix wins with

13:49

a Mexican muscle buster. Yeah. Thank you,

13:52

Joe Tessitor. I'm glad someone told you

13:54

what that was. Right. Before the match.

13:56

Yeah. But after the match, Byron Saxon

13:59

interviews, interviews, interviews, him

14:01

too? Well, you know, huh? It

14:03

is what it is. That's strange.

14:05

Yeah, that's what it is. All

14:07

right, well, thanks. I thought his

14:09

setup move was better, the fire

14:11

driver? Yes. Or it was basically

14:13

a brainbuster? I thought, oh, that's,

14:15

yeah. I thought that was better

14:17

as well. And then he kicked

14:19

out. I was like, oh, yeah.

14:21

Then he just did like a

14:23

regular, like a regular little kind

14:25

of move to win. That was,

14:27

that was, that was, that was, that

14:29

was, that was, that was, that

14:31

was, that was, that was, that

14:33

was, that was, that was, that

14:35

was, that was, that was, that

14:37

was, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's,

14:39

that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's,

14:41

that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's, that's,

14:44

that's, that's, that's, that's, That's the

14:46

kind of performance that I expect

14:48

from the two of Uninios. But

14:50

Berto says, gee! I mean it

14:52

was like they were parying Tellamundo

14:54

or some shit. Like Tella Novella,

14:56

gee! He's a flying lizard, Bobby. He's

14:58

a flash in the band. I'm

15:00

better than him despite never winning

15:02

a match ever. He's also secretly

15:04

your twin brother. Can you believe

15:06

a few years ago? There was

15:08

this fucking mark that thought I

15:10

was going to be the next United

15:12

States champion. Can you believe it?

15:14

He won. One match in a

15:16

row. So he had momentum. Yeah,

15:18

he did. He really did. So

15:20

then Sanzos is like, I like

15:22

the fire. I'll talk to Nicardis

15:24

and make it happen. And they're like,

15:27

thanks. Manager Santos. Who never wrestles.

15:29

Yeah. And will never wrestle again.

15:31

Clearly. That's crazy. Yeah. Why did

15:33

that? What is it? When a

15:35

Mexican wrestler shows up, why does

15:37

he have to fight the other Mexican

15:39

wrestlers? Why is that always the

15:41

case? Vince is gone, right? Yeah,

15:43

Vince is gone. Are we still

15:45

doing this? Yeah, why? We're still

15:47

doing the whole like race. Oh,

15:49

luchalebra. It's like, yeah, there's plenty

15:51

of luchadores in the company. They don't

15:54

just have to wrestle each other.

15:56

But what are you going to

15:58

do? What are you going to

16:00

do? Next up we have a

16:02

video promo from Drew McIntyre. He's

16:04

now a pirate. Yeah. Because he's

16:06

sporting an eye patch to sell the

16:08

glass in his eye from the

16:10

car spot the previous week is

16:12

fightful or whoever still thinks it

16:14

really happens. And then Drew calls

16:16

Priest a coward for the attack.

16:18

He says, I need to pray.

16:20

And we all know, when Drew McIntyre

16:22

prays, bad things happen. And then

16:24

Priest responds with a video promo

16:26

of his own later. He says,

16:28

Drew made him a scapegoat for

16:30

his own failures. And then he

16:32

calls Drew a junkie, which reminded

16:34

me of when Orton was feuding with

16:37

Edge. And he said, Edge is

16:39

a junkie. And Adam Copeland is

16:41

a junkie for Edge. Yeah. So

16:43

he calls him a junkie. And

16:45

he officially challenges Drew to a

16:47

match at Russell man. Okay. All right.

16:49

Which we obviously knew that was

16:51

coming. Yeah. It's unfortunate that this

16:53

is what Drew has to work

16:55

with for mania. Yeah. And again,

16:57

probably lose. I mean, there's a

16:59

good chance he loses. Because he

17:01

always loses, you know. We were talking

17:04

last week, maybe him and Kevin

17:06

Owens help each other win. But

17:08

obviously that's not happening anymore. So

17:10

who knows? Maybe Seth now? I

17:12

mean, they've teased that before? I

17:14

don't know. Right. That might be

17:16

asking a lot, though. Next up, we've

17:18

got L.A. Knight. Yeah. All right.

17:20

It's dying down, though. See, you're,

17:22

yeah, it's not as excited as

17:24

it used to be. He's tired

17:26

of it. He's on his, like,

17:28

eight-year feud with Sam Owens. Yeah.

17:30

L.A. A. Night versus Tomat versus Tomatanga

17:32

versus Tomat versus Tomat. But Knight

17:34

has his back and solo tells

17:36

Knight you got a lot of

17:38

balls talking to me like that

17:40

and Knight says, oh you ain't

17:42

lying, they're gargantuan. And then Thomas

17:44

says, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, like,

17:47

yeah, they are. I see. They're

17:49

right in my mouth. Strange. Anyways,

17:51

this match, Knight won with the

17:53

BFT. Thank you. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

17:55

yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so we're

17:57

interfering. The two monsters have to fight

17:59

for a chance to face night,

18:01

but Tonga can just do it.

18:03

Yeah, I'll just fight him. Not

18:05

non-titled though, it was on title

18:07

match up. Didn't matter. No, of

18:09

course not. Byron Saxon asked Heyman

18:11

what the favor is but he says

18:14

are you retarded he I don't

18:16

know he didn't tell me right

18:18

but he says whatever it is

18:20

the answer is yes and then

18:22

a car pulls up and Heyman

18:24

thinks it's his tribal chief but

18:26

it's Seth Rollins he was like ah

18:28

you were expecting the other shield

18:30

guy right you look horrible you

18:32

really dug yourself into a hole

18:34

with this whole favor thing but

18:36

let me know when Roman gets

18:38

here because I want to know

18:40

what this favor is favor is too.

18:42

So teasing the main segment. Meanwhile

18:44

we get another Alister Black teaser.

18:46

Yeah. He's coming. Is it gonna

18:48

be WrestleMania Smackdown or Smackdown after

18:50

Wrestlemania is the question? It's, uh,

18:52

I don't know who knows. Does

18:54

it really matter? Who's gonna, who's gonna,

18:57

who's gonna, you know, job out

18:59

his first match? Carrying cross. Maybe

19:01

there's something in the, like, like,

19:03

sport. Oh, okay. He's gonna fight

19:05

Zalina. Yeah. Wow. So now that's

19:07

how you come. So next up, Charlotte

19:09

Flair comes out. Looking like Madonna.

19:11

Now. Yes. Madonna at 66 years

19:13

old. Yes. Holy shit. What was

19:15

she thinking with that outfit? Yeah.

19:17

I can pull this off. No.

19:19

You have zero curves. You're wearing

19:21

like a dog collar and it's like

19:24

you kind of look like one.

19:26

I didn't really even get it

19:28

while I was watching it. I

19:30

was like, what am I watching

19:32

right now? I'm not sure. Someone

19:34

said it's Sabrina Carpenter versus share.

19:36

I've read some media. Yeah, that's funny.

19:38

So fair enough. I think Cher

19:40

looks better there though in that

19:42

photo. At 79. So then Tiffany

19:44

Stratton comes out and Wade Barrett

19:46

was in the ring like, I've

19:48

been chosen to moderate this train

19:50

wreck. Here we go! Because boy yourselves,

19:52

it's a no. Yeah. And I

19:54

think they booked this segment just

19:56

to make Cody Rhodes look cool

19:58

by comparison. They're like, everyone's gonna

20:00

be like, well, at least you're

20:02

not that bad. You're not as

20:04

bad as these two girls. Maybe. Charlotte

20:07

says she chose Stratton because Tiffany

20:09

begged her and was, and she

20:11

was feeling charitable. And then Stratton

20:13

tells, like, Stratton, like, okay, Charlotte

20:15

sucks, but Stratton is horrendous on

20:17

the mic. She is completely lost.

20:19

All she's doing is saying the

20:21

words. She's not really. presenting them

20:23

in an interesting way. She's just

20:25

remembering them and saying them as

20:27

she goes. Right. She's so bad.

20:29

She's like, Charlotte, your biggest competitor

20:31

has never been in this ring.

20:34

Your biggest competitor has been them.

20:36

And that's a battle you'll never

20:38

win. And it's like, well, I mean,

20:40

okay, first of all, that sucked. Right. Secondly,

20:43

like there were times where Charlotte

20:45

was like the most over women's

20:47

wrestler. There were in the company.

20:49

Right. But it's like, what does that have to

20:51

do with, if we're pretending that this is

20:54

a real TV show and she's a

20:56

wrestler, what does that matter? It's just

20:58

like, she has a bunch of belts,

21:00

she has more titles than any woman.

21:02

So then Tiffany also says, no matter

21:04

how many titles you win, you'll always

21:06

come second to your daddy. Rick Flair

21:08

is like, oh good, I'm glad she

21:10

said it. We wouldn't have known. No

21:12

one knows. Her music, her woo, her

21:14

finisher? Yeah, if this is for the

21:17

fan that doesn't, that can't connect the

21:19

dots, they don't know who the fuck

21:21

Rick Flair is to begin with. Right.

21:23

You know, your dad, Rick Flair, oh.

21:25

And then Charlotte freezes as the fans

21:27

boo her out of the arena. Yeah.

21:29

And then she just turns to them

21:32

and says, what would you like me

21:34

to say? It's like, oh no. She

21:36

basically pulled Aranda? Yeah, she's getting

21:38

close. Yeah. Yeah. Stratman says, what

21:41

were you doing at 25? You

21:43

were trying to be a volleyball

21:45

player drinking in your daddy's basement?

21:47

Is that true? I have no

21:50

fucking idea. Probably. I

21:52

mean, I guess. It must be

21:54

because she sent it. College? Was

21:56

she trying to be like a

21:58

college volleyball player? I don't know. I

22:00

guess she took after her father

22:02

in terms of education. I guess

22:04

so. But then she says at

22:07

25, I'm walking into WrestleMania, the

22:09

W.E. Women's Champion, and then this

22:11

segment really goes off the rails.

22:14

And your WrestleMania record may be

22:16

four and three? And you may

22:19

be the queen inside of the

22:21

ring. You ain't the queen of

22:23

shit, they believed it. She

22:37

said, you're so squeaky while

22:39

she was squeaking. Yeah. Yes.

22:42

Mm-hmm. So that was terrible.

22:44

You know what? Reminding me

22:46

of, on wrestling isn't wrestling,

22:48

you don't want to go

22:50

up to that little man.

22:52

Oh, yeah. You're not going

22:54

to put that amount of

22:56

money. You're my best friend.

22:58

For such good friends, Matista.

23:00

Anyways, it gets worse. And

23:02

when I beat you at

23:04

Wrestle, Charlotte. You're

23:07

gonna be just like you

23:09

are outside of the ring

23:11

alone First of all what

23:14

part what does that mean?

23:16

After WrestleMania, you're gonna be

23:18

alone Just like you are

23:21

outside the ring like in

23:23

a personal life sure, but

23:25

like what does that mean

23:27

in the ring? Yeah, you're

23:30

gonna lose your alone. Yeah,

23:32

that's it. What is that

23:34

record like what? Wow

23:39

someone said we should get the

23:41

rock doing the diesel like that's

23:43

a shitty one If that's a

23:45

great idea Now I will say

23:48

Kaiser did tweet this. Oh I

23:50

saw this. Yes. Yes Uh-huh. Okay.

23:52

And here we go. And here

23:54

we go. Uh-huh. Take two. You

23:56

can't do it. Can't do it?

23:58

Hold on. Can I just do

24:00

it? Take three. Do not have

24:03

a sincere flower for March shot.

24:05

Please do not flatter yourself. Do

24:07

not flatter yourself, Deanna Tucker. Yeah,

24:09

that was shown to Davy Boy's

24:11

wife, which is funny because we

24:13

covered that fairly recently on the

24:15

Monday Night War podcast. Sure did.

24:18

So you have fire everyone involved

24:20

in this segment. Even Wade Barrett?

24:22

Yes. Oh, fuck. It's all his

24:24

fault. Deathby Association. Yeah. Cylinal damage

24:26

was terrible. There are reports that

24:28

Charlotte went off script first. Which

24:30

like I guess she did by

24:33

what the whole you're so squeaky

24:35

like there's like can't hear you

24:37

And then they're saying Stratton ad

24:39

lib the oh and three line,

24:41

but there's no fucking way No,

24:43

yeah, like none of this came

24:45

off natural to Stratton You know

24:48

did that line the same way

24:50

she delivered the rest of her

24:52

fucking lines like a robot right

24:54

and then she got like like

24:56

like you said she goes oh

24:58

in three woo and then Stratton

25:00

runs away like a heelwood Yeah

25:03

And then Charlotte says, is that

25:05

why Kaiser's in my D.M.'s? I

25:07

can see Charlotte ad libbing the

25:09

Kaiser line. Because that's not K-Fabe.

25:11

Right, no, it's not. He's not

25:13

her together. No. But it's like,

25:15

yeah, no, Charlotte. Go look in

25:18

the mirror. I mean, Stratton might

25:20

be a butterface as well, but

25:22

she's, you know, heads and shoulders

25:24

above you. That's the definition of

25:26

a butterface is a hot body,

25:28

but yeah, I don't know if

25:30

it's that bad. Burroughface is way

25:33

worse. I said that. Of course,

25:35

anyone compared to Charlotte, I mean,

25:37

my God. But this was just

25:39

fucking horrible. And what is with

25:41

them? They can't book women's segments

25:43

on the show anymore. You have

25:46

this, you have the Jade and

25:48

Naomi bullshit, which is terrible. of

25:50

Eo Ripley and Bel Air, that's

25:52

fucking terrible too. What is happening

25:54

right now? Right. It's not good.

25:56

But all right, next up we've

25:58

got DIY versus Motor City machine

26:01

guns. Chippa ran into an exposed

26:03

turnbuckle and then Chris Sabin beat

26:05

him with a roll-up. Thanks guys.

26:07

Oh great. B-I-Y buried forever. Mm-hmm.

26:09

Backstage, Miss and Mellow make fun

26:11

of Kit Wilson and Elton Prince

26:13

for losing their tag title match

26:16

the previous week. And Miss says

26:18

pretty deadly? More like pretty useless.

26:20

Yeah. And then pretty shitty mentions

26:22

the shitty Marie movies. and that

26:24

they aren't even really a real

26:26

tag team and then Ms. says

26:28

we are mellow don't miss and

26:31

we are aus him so you

26:33

might as well be in a

26:35

tag team with our truth again

26:37

yeah this what's the difference what's

26:39

the difference so that's what we're

26:41

doing now so they're gonna have

26:43

a match that's gonna be fun

26:46

next up let's see if it

26:48

gets better we got B Fab

26:50

versus Naomi Oh no! Oh no!

26:52

Yeah. I'm gonna do it with

26:54

it. Jade Cargill jumps Naomi from

26:56

behind before the match, but security

26:58

pulls her off. Bee Fab, during

27:01

the match, bee Fab, I'll give

27:03

her credit. She gave stiff forearms

27:05

to Naomi's forearms. So give me

27:07

your forearms, Eric? Yeah. She was

27:09

like this. Wow! Oh! Oh! Oh!

27:11

Oh! Oh! Oh! Wow! Ground and

27:13

pound! How is she gonna get

27:16

out of that! Pound and ground!

27:18

Enough how with the fucking MMA

27:20

bullshit. Yeah. Neely then wins with

27:22

the shittiest code breaker ever. Yeah.

27:24

And they called it something else.

27:26

Cautious. to your dick, I don't

27:28

know what it was, but it

27:31

sucked. Caution to your dick. Yeah.

27:33

Caution to the wind? After the

27:35

match, Naomi calls out Jade as

27:37

if she were the baby face,

27:39

but then she turns around and

27:41

Jade pump kicks Naomi's forearm, so

27:43

that's good. Yeah. And then Jade

27:46

sets up for the jaded, but

27:48

security's like, no! No! This will

27:50

kill her! Stop it! This is

27:52

what everyone's waiting for at WrestleMania.

27:54

Jimmy Uso almost died. Yes. No

27:56

one comes out. No. She wants

27:58

to do what? Her finisher? Yes.

28:01

Oh, shut it down. Shut it

28:03

down now. 18 security guards. Wow.

28:05

And then Jade beats up all

28:07

the six foot five security guards.

28:09

Yeah. And then Nick Aldis comes

28:11

out to announce that Jade versus

28:13

Naomi will be one of the

28:16

worst WrestleMania matches of all time.

28:18

No. He's so excited to announce

28:20

that. Oh, and it's like that's

28:22

what that's what like the whole

28:24

thing is. Like the Orton versus,

28:26

oh, Orton versus Kevin Owens match

28:28

was like, this is where the

28:31

punts gonna be. Yeah. And then

28:33

the Omni Jade match is gonna

28:35

be, well, we're saving the jaded

28:37

for Wrestleania. Yeah. This is where

28:39

the punts gonna be. Didn't she

28:41

already hit her with the jaded?

28:43

Yes. Yeah. When, when she came

28:46

out in the caution tape the

28:48

first time. So anyways, next up,

28:50

Nick All This introduces Kevin Owens,

28:52

who comes out on a Finn

28:54

Ballard t-shirt and a Bret Hart

28:56

jacket. I mean... You fucking Mark!

28:58

I mean, seriously. And this wasn't

29:01

Kevin Owens, the heel wrestler, this

29:03

was Kevin Steen, the real person.

29:05

Yeah. You know? Right. Did they

29:07

say that? No. Oh, but you

29:09

know what I mean. Yes. Yeah.

29:11

Kayo says I've been in this

29:13

industry for 25 years and because

29:16

of that I've gotten to experience

29:18

things I'll never forget I've had

29:20

the chance to take care of

29:22

my family that I could have

29:24

only dreamed of But there's a

29:26

price to pay for that opportunity

29:28

and now it seems like it's

29:31

my turn For the last four

29:33

months I've been dealing with a

29:35

pretty serious neck injury and now

29:37

I have to go get neck

29:39

surgery. Not getting to be in

29:41

the ring with Randy Orton at

29:43

Russell Mani really sucks. The truth

29:46

is I don't know when I'll

29:48

have the privilege to be in

29:50

front of you guys again. And

29:52

then he thanks the fans, he

29:54

apologizes and hugs Nick Aldis. So

29:56

yeah. Like he did this whole

29:58

promo as if he were a

30:01

baby face. Sure. Because again, it's

30:03

supposed to be a real moment.

30:05

What's interesting here is like, so

30:07

okay, we'll get to this, but

30:09

after this, Randy Orton walks out

30:11

and he has a moment with

30:13

Owens. And then Owens hops off

30:16

the apron. Yeah. And I think

30:18

they did that to show that

30:20

this is real, because if it

30:22

wasn't, then Orton would just beat

30:24

the shit out of them. Right.

30:26

But per cave fade, Kevin, Kevin

30:28

Owens pile drive Dortin's head into

30:31

the Orton's head into the mat.

30:33

And now Orton wants to put

30:35

his, punch his head off, but

30:37

since Owens is injured, I don't

30:39

want to put your head off

30:41

anymore. Wasn't that the whole point?

30:44

Didn't you want to end his

30:46

career? But when you're, if it's

30:48

real, if it's real, and I

30:50

don't know, I just don't, I'm

30:52

assuming. Right. But if it's real,

30:54

like, you're crossing the fourth, you're

30:56

breaking the fourth wall a little

30:59

bit. You are, yeah. And like

31:01

you could have dabbed him up.

31:03

the wall, we're gonna break cave

31:05

for a second, they do a

31:07

little dab hug and it sucks

31:09

and he leaves. Yeah. Even this

31:11

I felt was too far because

31:14

Owen's pile drive him, like he

31:16

gave him a pile driver, he

31:18

was out for a while. Well

31:20

I mean it's a good way

31:22

of like separating the story from

31:24

real life, you know. But again

31:26

this is a fucking TV show.

31:29

You don't do this in dramas,

31:31

you don't do this in Sop.

31:33

Yeah, it's not like Tony's mom

31:35

died and then they did a

31:37

tribute to the actress that played

31:39

her. It's not the same. It

31:41

is? Yeah, really. It's not? Pro

31:44

wrestling's always been its own thing

31:46

of slightly crossing the fourth wall

31:48

when they need to. Yeah. You

31:50

know, I get it, whatever. It's

31:52

time I know what you mean

31:54

though I get it right like

31:56

don't why did you have to

31:59

walk past him Vince McMahon died

32:01

and it was like yeah so

32:03

that was bullshit anyway Chris Ben

32:05

was dead and that was great

32:07

Eric like what's your point I'm

32:09

not that wasn't it's not like

32:11

that was a good moment I'm

32:14

not saying it's great but when

32:16

you have something that happens in

32:18

real life it's okay not to

32:20

follow the story a hundred percent

32:22

you just I mean it wasn't

32:24

necessary that Orton had to come

32:26

out right then That's all I'm

32:29

saying. He's the one that hates

32:31

Kevin Owens the most. Per the

32:33

story, he wants to break Kevin

32:35

Owens' neck. Sure. So like you

32:37

should come out and be like,

32:39

hey, cool. They used to be

32:41

the bestest of friends. Sure, you

32:44

know, it's true. So then, you

32:46

know, Owens starts to leave and

32:48

Owens, and you see Owens confront

32:50

a fan, and on TV you

32:52

can't hear what the fan said,

32:54

but another fan was filming the

32:56

crowd and uploaded the video. And

32:59

a lot of people were confused

33:01

about what the fan said, but

33:03

if you actually pay attention, the

33:05

fan yelled, you're full of shit,

33:07

Kevin. And then Kevin confronts the

33:09

guy and says, shut the fuck

33:11

up, you little bitch. And the

33:14

fan says, I thought it was

33:16

a storyline, Kevin. Like, so it

33:18

was like, so like, the fan

33:20

was just saying, like, you're full

33:22

of shit, you're not really injured.

33:24

Which like, like, to the fan's

33:26

point, so did I, so did

33:29

I. They reported it. So I

33:31

thought, okay, WWE was gonna use

33:33

that and turn it into a

33:35

story. Sure. Like, maybe Fightful was

33:37

wrong. And then Kevin Owens is

33:39

gonna say, hey, my neck's injured,

33:41

I can't do it. And then

33:44

I thought later in the show,

33:46

Owens was gonna attack Orton. Yeah,

33:48

you know, right. But that didn't

33:50

happen. Yeah. So Owens is gone.

33:52

For who knows how long. I

33:54

mean, when it's a neck injury,

33:56

that's scary. Or Daniel Bryan was

33:59

the head thing, but still like...

34:01

Obviously Edd had to retire for

34:03

a very long time. Robert Ruud.

34:05

Robert Ruud is retired and

34:07

Owens is up there in age.

34:09

You know? He's like what, 40?

34:11

Right. He's up there. So there's

34:14

a chance that he might not

34:16

come back which he has 40.

34:18

That would suck. It would. But

34:20

you know, imagine if he

34:22

returns at next year's

34:24

Royal Rumble and he's

34:26

fucking jacked. Yep, I'll do

34:28

it. It'd be amazing. But also,

34:31

also. What if it's real? It's

34:33

probably over a year. Maybe. Yeah.

34:35

Rumbled like 27. Yeah. Like,

34:38

wow, Kevin, you're jacked. How

34:40

big are those pythons now?

34:42

Uh-huh. Twenty-two. Twenty-two inches. Yeah.

34:44

Very nice. So that sucks

34:46

that we're not gonna see

34:48

Kevin Owens for a long

34:50

time. Sure does. Wish him

34:52

the best, obviously. But back

34:54

in the ring Nick all

34:56

this tells Orton he no

34:58

longer has the mania match

35:00

so Orton gives all this

35:02

an R. K. O. All

35:04

right all just versus Orton. This

35:06

gonna be as long as this

35:09

was. Yeah, right. Yeah. So who

35:11

does Orton fight at mania? They

35:13

should do what they did with

35:15

Seth Rollins in 2022 with the

35:17

surprise opponents and the

35:19

surprise opponent is the return

35:22

of Rucef. First, you just

35:24

like, it's just like the

35:26

Cody Road Seth thing, Orton

35:29

comes out, and then you just

35:31

hear, hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm. Crabbard

35:33

would lose their

35:36

fucking mind. In English,

35:38

Orton would immediately be the

35:40

heel of that. Right. I'm

35:42

glad you didn't say something

35:45

stupid like Alistair Black. Their

35:47

eyes are going to immediately

35:49

be the heel and that.

35:52

Right. Yeah, it's a warden. It's a warden.

35:54

He's put in his time. Yeah. Yeah. He's

35:56

put in in a few things. There are

35:58

reports that Rousaf has signed with them. W.

36:00

E. already. Yes. So please do

36:02

this. I mean, yeah, I look

36:04

through the roster. There's no one

36:06

else. The only other one that's

36:08

a big enough name to fight

36:10

Orton would be Brock Lesner. And,

36:13

you know, certainly before Owens was

36:15

injured, Brock was not part of

36:17

the plans for WrestleMania. Right. But

36:19

maybe they're like, well. You know,

36:21

he's involved in that lawsuit or

36:23

whatever, but let's give him a

36:25

call and see if he wants

36:27

to do it. I don't know.

36:29

What's Sammy Zane? Yeah, but then

36:31

one of them would have to

36:33

turn heel? I don't know. Well,

36:35

it could just be like, you

36:37

know, you're supposed to fight Kevin,

36:39

Kevin can't wrestle, so I'll fight

36:41

in his place. So let's just

36:43

have a friendly match for nothing?

36:45

No, they can build in two

36:47

weeks for seven. Yeah, two weeks.

36:49

Two weeks. Two weeks for seven

36:51

friends. Best friends. Best friends. That

36:53

sounds like, best friends. That sounds

36:56

like A- You can't hang with

36:58

me. Why don't you do this?

37:00

And then Sammy like smacks them

37:02

in the face. So it's like

37:04

a, like what's happening with Seth

37:06

Roman and punk right now. Sure.

37:08

They're all good guys, but they

37:10

kind of hate each other. Like,

37:12

you could create a little hate

37:14

there. And then Sammy does it,

37:16

right? He beats them? No. And

37:18

then goes on to win the

37:20

title? Fack, yeah, I already hit

37:22

the button. So next up, we've

37:24

got Braun Stroman versus Jacob Fattu,

37:26

last monster standing. I hate that.

37:28

United States, they didn't even say

37:30

it, I'm just, no, they didn't,

37:32

but that's why I'm mad at

37:34

you. This is a United States

37:36

championship number one contenders match. Facku

37:39

hits two moon salts early on,

37:41

but Braun rolls out of the

37:43

ring to stand up to beat

37:45

the count. Braun hit Facku at

37:47

the steel steps. He threw him

37:49

into the prime station and then

37:51

flipped him off but they cut

37:53

to black can't show it. It

37:55

is USA I guess. Yeah I

37:57

guess so. Whatever. Stonewood grant all

37:59

over this network. Exactly. Years ago.

38:01

Right. Fattu charged that Braun outside

38:03

the ring but Braun hit him

38:05

with a chair to the head.

38:07

Braun then tackled Fattu through the

38:09

barricade. Braun-suplex Fattu off a crate

38:11

and through some tables. It's always

38:13

that same spot. It's always that

38:15

same spot. Yes, they tackled them

38:17

off this time. It's a suplex

38:19

through a bunch of tables. It's

38:22

a good thing They they keep

38:24

setting those things up right in

38:26

the exact same spot. Yes, and

38:28

but in the middle of the

38:30

match you got it you got

38:32

to know that both guys stink

38:34

Because they're big stinky giant. Yeah,

38:36

so then back in the ring

38:38

Fachu gives Braun the hip attack

38:40

through a table for the win

38:42

as Braun can't get up. He

38:44

can't Do it. All right. So

38:46

this means that they fight once

38:48

more at WrestleMania and then they

38:50

who, yeah, right? Oh, I guess

38:52

not. I mean, even though like,

38:54

Jacob Tattoo's kind of doing this

38:56

weird, like he hates solo, so

38:58

he's kind of not bad bad,

39:00

he's like a good bad. I'm

39:02

like almost wondering if solo costs

39:05

him this title. He's got to

39:07

be Ellie Knight at WrestleMania. I

39:09

mean my god if one thing

39:11

has to happen. It's that Yeah,

39:13

you have to fast-track Fachu Fachu

39:15

is over as fuck like he

39:17

might be a heel but the

39:19

fucking fans love him to death.

39:21

Well if you love him love

39:23

him I would get behind him

39:25

more if he'd quit fighting Braun

39:27

Stroman every fucking done he's easy.

39:29

Yes, are you sure take it

39:31

easy? Take it easy. It's done.

39:33

He's fighting night, he's gonna take

39:35

the belt from him, and then

39:37

Solo's gonna Samo and spike him,

39:39

and then he's, you know, then

39:41

they're gonna fight at whatever the

39:43

fucking next paper is. Backlass? Whatever

39:45

the fuck you guys call it?

39:48

Yeah. Next up, Roman arrives, he

39:50

doesn't say a single word to

39:52

Heyman, he walks out to the

39:54

ring. Chicago acknowledges their tribal chief,

39:56

and this was great because Roman

39:58

was like playing a heel again,

40:00

which he's so much better at,

40:02

like this. He's just the tribal

40:04

chief again, like the asshole that

40:06

he has been. He never changed.

40:08

No. He didn't change a... He

40:10

didn't kill Jay. That's the only

40:12

thing that... change yeah and I

40:14

won't kill my family but like

40:16

even when he came back he

40:18

was being nice to the crowd

40:20

he wasn't shitting on them here

40:22

he shit on them yeah he

40:24

says seampunk wouldn't be back here

40:26

if it wasn't for me seampunk

40:28

wouldn't be in the main event

40:31

of russelmania if it wasn't for

40:33

me And then he mocked Chicago

40:35

with these from the same city

40:37

as me. I have to like

40:39

them. You're good people, you mean

40:41

well, but you're not that smart.

40:43

It's like, I mean, wow. That's

40:45

a heel thing. But I love

40:47

heel Roman more than baby face

40:49

Roman. For sure, for sure. You

40:51

know, even if it is like

40:53

still the same character, just a

40:55

little watered down. It's great, because

40:57

it's basically a heel Seth, a

40:59

heel Roman, and a face punk,

41:01

you know, you know, so it's

41:03

like almost like a two on

41:05

one. So Seth taunts Roman, or

41:07

Seth comes out, he taunts Roman,

41:09

but the fans chant, what's the

41:11

favor? I was doing the same

41:14

thing at home. Sure, I'm sure

41:16

you were. Except with your dick,

41:18

right? What's the favor? I was

41:20

clapping my two dicks together. No,

41:22

like you're jerking it. What's up?

41:24

All right, anyways, so then punk

41:26

comes out and he says this

41:28

is about friendship, promises made, and

41:30

promises kept. This is about loyalty,

41:32

and he tells the story of

41:34

punk, or if Haman telling punk,

41:36

when you main event Russellmania, force

41:38

them to deal with us. Well,

41:40

they aren't here anymore. Poison! So

41:42

I'm gonna force you, my tribal

41:44

chief, to deal with us. because

41:46

at the main event of Russell

41:48

Mania in my corner your wise

41:50

man my best friend Paul Heyman

41:52

and Roman laughs and says that's

41:54

the favor he loves me he

41:57

needs me I saved him even

41:59

if I let him he wouldn't

42:01

he goes wise man let this

42:03

fool down easy and then Heyman

42:05

starts crying And Roman says tell

42:07

him no like a bunch of

42:09

times like are you crying and

42:11

the crowd pop laughed Yeah, right.

42:13

So this is a serious moment

42:15

guys chill tell Don't laugh. But

42:17

Heyman says, no, my tribal chief,

42:19

I can't do that. And I

42:21

love how Seth hates both of

42:23

them. Right. So he's just happy

42:25

at Roman's misery, even though it's

42:27

punk getting one over on Roman.

42:29

Absolutely. This is great. Yeah, fucking

42:31

hate both of you guys. And

42:33

then punk attacks Roman, lays him

42:35

out with a GTS, which. Cell

42:37

of the year, I mean Jesus

42:40

Christ, oh my God, yeah, you

42:42

sell very well He was he

42:44

was like it looks like he

42:46

looks like Peter Griffin fell down

42:48

the stairs Yeah And then punk

42:50

looks at Seth but Seth leaves

42:52

the ring and This was great

42:54

because also like fans were posting

42:56

this clip from 12 years ago

42:58

of Heyman and punk on raw

43:00

where Hammond says I'm gonna walk

43:02

down that aisle with you one

43:04

day when you're in the main

43:06

event of Russell Mania Wow the

43:08

only thing that is not coming

43:10

true there is when you're challenging

43:12

for the WWE championship at WrestleMania.

43:14

How is there not a title

43:16

in this match? Right. I mean

43:18

at least at the very least

43:20

it has to be a number

43:23

one contender match. Just have a

43:25

random like like Gunter Roman match.

43:27

Yeah. Next week. Next week. Takes

43:29

the title. Now that titles are

43:31

for use. Sorry. Sorry. Us. Next

43:33

year. Us. My guess is the

43:35

only reason it's not a number

43:37

one contenders match is because whoever

43:39

is winning. Isn't getting a title

43:41

shots. I guess that's why. But

43:43

it's like, okay, I mean, certainly

43:45

like you said, this is the

43:47

best, Max, this is the best

43:49

story on the WrestleMania card. Right.

43:51

But it does feel like it

43:53

should be for something still. Not

43:55

just the glory of WrestleMania. Not

43:57

just for hate. Right. Or like

43:59

Seth said, the soul or who

44:01

got it. Yeah, later on raw.

44:03

The soul of WW. So that's

44:06

the end of Smackdown. On to

44:08

Monday Night Raw, we open with

44:10

Adam Pierce. And he's got the

44:12

Women's World Championship on display in

44:14

the ring. Oh, let's do this

44:16

again. I need a segment. Yeah,

44:18

let's do this again. I thought

44:20

he was about to like name

44:22

himself the women's champ. I don't

44:24

know what was happening here. Never

44:26

know. I put a hundred thousand

44:28

dollars on Rhea or Bel Air

44:30

pushing Eo in the face. Sure.

44:32

I want a dollar. Yeah, that

44:34

was, I'm surprised you won that

44:36

much. Peterson introduces Eo Skye. She

44:38

comes out looking smoking hot. And

44:40

then there's only one person left

44:42

taking away raw GM. Please welcome

44:44

representing Judgment Day! Rio Ripley! What

44:46

is he an idiot? He's representing

44:49

the Judgment Day. She hasn't been

44:51

part of Judgment Day since August

44:53

of last year. Why would he

44:55

do that? How could he do

44:57

that? How could he do that

44:59

that bad? Well, you know, when

45:01

you say Drew Mac and Fart,

45:03

anything's possible. It's true. That's true.

45:05

I was representing the judgment day.

45:07

Oh, and he said it's so

45:09

slow too. Like, there was never

45:11

a point where your brain went

45:13

wrong and confidently. Yeah. Representing the

45:15

judgment day. Yeah. Yeah, them. I

45:17

said it. Dominic mysterious girlfriend. Balher's

45:20

best friend! Like aneurysm where you just

45:23

go back six months. Yeah, right. That

45:25

was insane. And then even like Cole

45:27

got to roast Pierce for a change.

45:29

Cole was like, oh, what a retard.

45:32

Anyway, some kono, right guys? Right. Well,

45:34

we don't like Adam Pierce. Yeah, right.

45:36

So then mommy comes out looking smoking

45:39

smoking hot and hot. And like with

45:41

the three of them, yeah, sure. I

45:43

was like, E.O. Belair and Ripley might

45:45

be the toughest fuck Mary Kill ever.

45:48

That's a tough one. Especially them in

45:50

this segment, they all looked amazing. Like,

45:52

fucking Bel Air in her, like, black.

45:55

cheerleader outfit, EO with the short shorts,

45:57

and then Ripley was just, you know,

45:59

normal Ripley with her fucking long legs

46:01

and... Braun Panney's match, guys. Let's do

46:04

it. Let's do it. Let's fucking go.

46:06

I'm sure Ripley would be fine with

46:08

it. Sure. You know, that's basically all

46:10

aware. Yeah, right. So that was, I

46:13

mean, yeah, I don't even know what

46:15

I would pick if I had to

46:17

pick right now. Just from that segment

46:20

alone, I was nuts. All right. I'm

46:22

telling you, it's a tough choice. All

46:24

right, kill, uh, Pierce. Can I do

46:26

that? Yes, yes, absolutely do that. Fuck

46:29

Eo and Bel Air in a three

46:31

way. Mary Ripley. I think I like

46:33

that. I like it. Perfect. He was

46:35

there. He was there. He enters the

46:38

equation. Pierce is just... I don't know,

46:40

he's just not who he thinks he

46:42

is. Yeah, he's definitely not fuckable. Because

46:45

he's like, all right, enough. But he's

46:47

like, you know, I booked Bel Air

46:49

to be this special guest referee for

46:51

last week thinking that you three would

46:54

be professional about this, but clearly you

46:56

can't do that. And that's my mistake.

46:58

So he's like shitting on them. Yeah.

47:01

It's like, shouldn't they just all beat

47:03

him up at the same time? You

47:05

bunch of dumb horse. Yeah. And then

47:07

he just announces he's like, he's like,

47:10

he's like. for the title at Mania

47:12

and then Bel Air bitches you know

47:14

she won the chamber but Rhea just

47:16

gets added to the match she signs

47:19

the contract and slams the contract on

47:21

Ripley's tits and then mommy signs it

47:23

throws it back at Bel Air they

47:26

get into it and then Eo gets

47:28

in the middle of them again and

47:30

again they push her face away. But

47:32

after a whole month of this, Eo's

47:35

finally had enough. Finally! And she hits

47:37

Ripley with a missile drop kick which

47:39

knocks her into Bel Air. Right in

47:41

the back. And then Eo signs the

47:44

contract and leaves with her. Flips up.

47:46

Yes, not Kips up, flips up. She

47:48

signs. the contract leaves with her belt

47:51

as Ripley and Belair are dead from

47:53

a drop kick. Yeah, well, fair enough.

47:55

It was a missile. I mean, you

47:57

know, at least the match has a

48:00

chance of being good because it's three

48:02

really good workers. Sure. But like this,

48:04

you know, these segments have been really

48:07

bad. Really bad. Not Charlotte Tiffy bad,

48:09

but you know. Yeah, no. What can

48:11

be. Still pretty bad. Yeah. Next up,

48:13

we've got Bailey versus Lyra Valkeria for

48:16

the Women's Intercontinental Championship. I was not

48:18

looking forward to this, but they surprised

48:20

me and actually had a good match.

48:22

Right. Well, the time, limit of 30

48:25

minutes. How long was this match? Which

48:27

was surprising, because Lyra, Lyra and Bailey

48:29

lately, you know, like, just their matches

48:32

against other people haven't been very good.

48:34

Yeah. But together, they had a pretty

48:36

good match. Right. You know it's a

48:38

good match when... In the middle end,

48:41

you don't know who's gonna win anymore.

48:43

Yeah, sure. I was like, I can

48:45

see Bailey, they just did it with

48:47

one of the other women's titles. I

48:50

can see Bailey picking this up and

48:52

kind of muddying the waters for Wrestleania.

48:54

Yeah, I don't think this is being

48:57

defended at Russellmania. I think Russellmania Smackdown.

48:59

No, because it's not even that, because

49:01

Aldis announced that tag team gauntlet. Yeah.

49:03

And whoever wins that is fighting Liv

49:06

and Rakel. At Mania for the women's

49:08

tag titles and aren't Lyra and Bailey

49:10

a tag team in that gauntlet? Oh

49:13

I have no idea. Lyra is in

49:15

is tagging with someone it has to

49:17

be Bailey because who else would the

49:19

fuck would it be? So yeah Lyra's

49:22

not defending the like IC title. So

49:24

right now we've got 12 matches that

49:26

have been announced. Yeah. And I don't

49:28

think there's any other like, oh this

49:31

is gonna get announced. Like I think

49:33

they've all been kind of public. And

49:35

last year we had 14 matches. Right.

49:38

So there still could be two matches

49:40

left. Now, obviously, K.O. Randy has been

49:42

taken out. So we're down to 12.

49:44

Does Randy get another match? Probably. Of

49:47

course. So Orton versus someone. and then

49:49

we still need maybe one more match.

49:51

I hope they just go with 13.

49:54

Oh, yeah, you know, I mean, it's,

49:56

there's probably, there's always gonna be more.

49:58

Yeah. Again, like the live in Rochelle

50:00

is one. Why not just every year

50:03

for a big title have a ladder

50:05

match? Like there's just so much magic

50:07

in a like a eight guy ladder

50:09

match. Sure. The North American title, the

50:12

Zach Rider win, like, like, right. They're

50:14

always so great. There's just so much

50:16

fucking going going going on and so

50:19

much going on and so much going

50:21

on and so much chaos and so

50:23

much chaos and so much chaos. Yeah.

50:25

Back to the IC title, Lyra had

50:28

a good bump when Bailey knocked her

50:30

off the top rope. Made it look

50:32

like the back of her head hit

50:34

the top turn buckle. That was really

50:37

nice. Then Bailey went for a suicide

50:39

dive, but Lyra jumped back in the

50:41

ring, so Bailey just fell to the

50:44

floor. Then Bailey gave Lyra a belly

50:46

to Billy on the floor. Then Bailey

50:48

put Lyra in the walls. The walls

50:50

of Jericho for a minute. But then

50:53

she went for the rose plant, but

50:55

Lyra countered and one with a... Rollup.

50:57

That was a huge pet peeve of

51:00

mine that she was in the walls.

51:02

She had nowhere to go. Yeah, she's

51:04

about to pass out and then she

51:06

lets it go. They said, uh, well,

51:09

clearly Lyra wasn't gonna tap. So what

51:11

if she passes out? You win. You

51:13

win the title. You know, it was

51:15

just a, it was a rookie mistake

51:18

from Bailey. I don't know. She wins

51:20

her the rollup. But I think the

51:22

only reason why it was a roll

51:25

up was a rollup was because they're

51:27

fucking. is in that fucking gauntlet. It's,

51:29

you know, it's Natalia and Maxine. Even

51:31

Natalia on Raw later was like, really,

51:34

this bitch? And Pierce was like, give

51:36

it a try. Do they beat, live,

51:38

and uh? Probably not. Yeah, because you

51:40

can't have. Valkery is a double champ

51:43

double champ, but it's the tag and

51:45

I see that's not cool. You're like

51:47

it's really not right I'm trying to

51:50

find who the fuck's in this I

51:52

don't care. Lyra offers a handshake Bailey

51:54

slaps or handaway, but then feels bad

51:56

about it and hugs Lyra. Oh yeah,

51:59

I mean I I imagine like potty

52:01

pussy is in it and then all

52:03

those other tag teams, you know, those

52:06

other ones. Yeah, B-Fab and Meechin. I

52:08

love how they said she hasn't won

52:10

in two months and that is by

52:12

far the longest stretch of her career.

52:15

Another just stat we're gonna make up

52:17

for no reason. That was Bailey. Yeah.

52:19

She hasn't won in two months. The

52:21

longest stretch of her entire career. That's

52:24

eight weeks. Sure she had a run

52:26

like that. Right. Then we go backstage

52:28

where Kathy Kelly interviews comedian Bert Chrysler

52:31

because he's got a new special on

52:33

Netflix. Oh, holy fuck. Yeah. Her kids

52:35

are popping out of her shirt. So

52:37

were Bert's. Did she? Ice them nipples.

52:40

I mean, Kathy Kelly always looks great,

52:42

of course. American Maid interrupts though and

52:44

tells Bert that he can watch El

52:46

Grande American American Americano compete tonight, but

52:49

Bert says I didn't come here to

52:51

watch you guys. And then Alpha Academy

52:53

walks up and the Bert Kreisher version

52:56

of a wrestler, Otis, walks up and

52:58

Bert and Otis rip off their shirts

53:00

and then Bert tells Otis, you know,

53:02

the shirt off is, you know, my

53:05

thing, right? But Otis says it's our

53:07

thing now. So he came for Otis?

53:09

Yeah. Did Otis not tell him, I'm

53:12

not doing anything. Doesn't matter. Can you

53:14

come to a city when I'm wrestling?

53:16

Berta? No. But Bert said, you know,

53:18

Bert's like, oh, the shirt off's my

53:21

thing. Oh, this is like, it's our

53:23

thing now. And then all of a

53:25

sudden, you hear like, not so fast,

53:27

dude. Yeah, oh God. Wait a minute,

53:30

brother. That doesn't work for me first.

53:32

Yeah, Jesus. Also backstage, Jackie Redmond interviews

53:34

AJ Stiles. who says he's going to

53:37

embarrass Logan Paul at Mania, but then

53:39

carrying Cross walks up with his AJ

53:41

Stiles hair and he says we need

53:43

the AJ Stiles that's going to get

53:46

the job done because I can't let

53:48

you lose at Mania. If you lose

53:50

we all lose, we need him! Yeah,

53:52

where's this? What? This match isn't even

53:55

for anything. Yeah. And is he good

53:57

guy now? No. What's happening right now?

53:59

AJ says you want another side of

54:02

AJ Styles? I'll give you a taste

54:04

next week and he leaves and then

54:06

Scarlet says I think we got him

54:08

and Cross says 100% we did. Got

54:11

what? I don't know. Guess? Give me

54:13

an Eric. Guess. What does he got?

54:15

Styles is going to fuck Scarlet while

54:18

Cross sits in the cuck chair. Okay.

54:20

Well. This is like the whole Vince

54:22

McMahon with AJ thing. I want to

54:24

see it. I want to see it.

54:27

I want to see it. Show it

54:29

to me. And the member styles punches

54:31

Vince and Vince is like, yeah. I'm

54:33

so stupid. And then Styles just screams.

54:36

And then it led to nothing. Yeah.

54:38

But he just wants to see AJ

54:40

Styles be more aggressive? Okay. What is

54:43

carrying crosses? Like, what is his thing

54:45

in this company now? Cuck. What's his

54:47

thing? I don't understand. What's his point?

54:49

When he came on to talk to

54:52

AJ said carrying cross with Scarlet. Yeah,

54:54

thanks. Yeah, right. Scarlet's just there to

54:56

go. And she's hot, but she's cross-eyed.

54:59

She's always like, oh yeah. Of course.

55:01

All right, thanks to us, Scarlet. I

55:03

see you next time. I just don't

55:05

understand what the point, what the point

55:08

is here. No. What's the point of

55:10

carrying Cross's character to begin with? Was

55:12

he part of the bullet club or

55:14

something? No. I don't know what's happening.

55:17

Like, Cross, we're giving you the stable

55:19

so you could view with the Wyets.

55:21

Well, now we released everyone in the

55:24

stable except for your wife and now...

55:26

I mean, we don't use the Wyets

55:28

anymore. We've got nothing for you to

55:30

do. Yeah, keep doing your hair like

55:33

other people though. Hey Alexa Bliss, welcome

55:35

back, here's a fat new contract, millions

55:37

of dollars. All right, all right, go

55:39

home. We'll call you if we need

55:42

you, but we're not gonna need you.

55:44

Hey, just go have another baby, all

55:46

right? Yeah, it's fine. Hey, get the

55:49

fuck out of you. Go home. You're

55:51

like one of the best women's. Alexa

55:53

Bliss, a made up partner. Yeah, you

55:55

know, it would be better than Charlotte

55:58

and Tiffany is Alexa versus anyone else.

56:00

At least the segments would be better.

56:02

Yeah. How about just have Alexa and

56:05

cross, uh, you know, the girl, um,

56:07

Alexa and Nikki, Nikki. Yeah, like just

56:09

have like, she just brings her out

56:11

as her partner and that's what the,

56:14

we said that last week in rumors

56:16

that that was the plan. But like,

56:18

like, not even the wires, fuck the

56:20

wires. Just bring her out as, as,

56:23

whatever. Oh, like when they were coffee

56:25

best friends? Yeah, whatever, right, exactly. Next

56:27

up, we've got the loser world order

56:30

versus the Creeds and El Grande Americano.

56:32

This was some AW bullshit because we

56:34

had all three members of LWO diving

56:36

out of the ring at the same

56:39

time. And then we had the Creeds

56:41

and Americano doing three superplexes at the

56:43

same time. Dragon League gave El Grande

56:45

a sit-down power bomb, but then Julius

56:48

gave Lee a shooting star press off

56:50

the top rope. Joaquin Wild then jumped

56:52

off Cruz and Julius to dive on

56:55

Brutus outside the ring. Then Ivy Nile

56:57

gave Grande a piece of metal to

56:59

put in his mask. Yeah. And then

57:01

race saw it. So he hopped on

57:04

the apron, but Grande headbudded him. And

57:06

Ray was just trying to say he

57:08

was like, no, you're going to turn

57:11

into Chris Benlaw. Yeah. And then Lee

57:13

tried to take off Grande's mask, which

57:15

is very offensive. It is. It is.

57:17

It is. Right. Especially a good guy.

57:20

He has a lootadore mask himself. Yeah.

57:22

Come on man. So then Grande headbudded

57:24

Lee and then hit a flying headbutt

57:26

for the win. And then backstage, Pierce

57:29

grants Ray a match with El Grande

57:31

at Russell Mania. I imagine it's gonna

57:33

be mask versus mask, right? And then

57:36

Gable will get unmasked. Yeah. Spoiler. Mask

57:38

versus career? I don't want this to

57:40

end in two weeks. It's like, it's

57:42

one of the only interesting things that's

57:45

happening right now. I want to play

57:47

this out a little bit longer. Well,

57:49

they still can, right. Yeah, that's a

57:51

pretty big deal. It should be a

57:54

good match if Ray can keep up.

57:56

Yeah. Next up, Gunther comes out, like,

57:58

what are you doing? And they're like,

58:01

whoa. Or just lose, roll in the

58:03

ring, have some of the guy roll

58:05

out. Yeah, right. But Gable, getting a

58:07

singles match at mania. Yeah, you know,

58:10

that's a pretty big deal. It should

58:12

be a good match if Ray can

58:14

keep up. Yeah. Next up, Gunther comes

58:17

out, sportinging a red tie that was

58:19

made from the blood of Jimmy Uso.

58:21

Did they say that? No. No. That

58:23

they kind of implied it. Yeah, sure.

58:26

Before you could say anything, Jay Uso

58:28

comes out from the crowd, but he's

58:30

not in a yeating mood. No. So

58:32

it was kind of awkward because everyone's

58:35

eating around him and he's like, oh,

58:37

you eat anymore. It's like, fuck your

58:39

eat. Why did he come out from

58:42

the crowd? Right. If he wasn't gonna

58:44

eat. Yeah. So Jay gets in the

58:46

ring. He slats in the ring. He

58:48

slaps. You talked to your mom? Yeah.

58:51

What do y'all talk about? Family stuff?

58:53

How's the wife? What did you eat?

58:55

You sent it all out? Take a

58:58

big dump? You eat again? You poop

59:00

some more? You want to know what

59:02

we talked about this week? You eat?

59:04

Did you eat and your wife? Did

59:07

you eat? Yeah. That sounds good, man.

59:09

That sounds cool. All right, I'll see

59:11

you later. That sounded good. Yeah. You

59:13

know what she asked me? She said,

59:16

why don't you protect him? Joshua! Yeah.

59:18

Who are you? So Joshua says, I

59:20

told her I was afraid of you.

59:23

I never felt so disrespected, pissed off,

59:25

and scared. You made the whole world

59:27

stop. You violated my twin! Must have

59:29

not. You know what I realize? I

59:32

shit my pants! I'm not afraid of

59:34

you, you know more. So before Wrestlemania,

59:36

hug and kiss your family. The night

59:38

before I'm going to pray for you

59:41

and ask the Lord to forgive me

59:43

for what I'm about to become because

59:45

at WrestleMania I'm gonna get you and

59:48

I will take the world heavyweight championship

59:50

and just like Cody I'm not gonna

59:52

fight you because I guess I'm still

59:54

afraid of you right now yeah it's

59:57

like you just murdered your brother and

59:59

you're not gonna you're not gonna hit

1:00:01

him and I prayed to forgive me

1:00:04

for eating on all these children every

1:00:06

single week when I come out here

1:00:08

Jesus sorry well thank you at least

1:00:10

you asked for forgiveness for forgiveness yeah

1:00:13

so jay's gonna do it's gonna happen

1:00:15

You still have doubts after he murdered

1:00:17

Jimmy? No. Yeah. But you did say

1:00:19

you were gonna put Goon through anyway.

1:00:22

I just said, you know, there's always

1:00:24

gonna be a big shock. There always

1:00:26

is. Every year for the last few

1:00:29

years. Sure. If they're gonna do it,

1:00:31

this might be a good one, because

1:00:33

Jay just can't do it. He can't

1:00:35

do it. He's gonna do it. Oh.

1:00:38

Yeah. Next up we've got the New

1:00:40

Day versus the War Raiders for the

1:00:42

tag titles with comedian Tony Hinchcliff on

1:00:44

commentary. Why? Roasting Michael Cole because the

1:00:47

roast of WrestleMania. Oh, and also his

1:00:49

podcast is now on Netflix. Oh, okay.

1:00:51

So they were promoting that? I mean,

1:00:54

he was great. He was like, oh

1:00:56

my God. Bring him on. Yes. You

1:00:58

know what I mean? I thought McAfee

1:01:00

was supposed to be this back in

1:01:03

the day, but McAfee's too popular to

1:01:05

be a deal now? Right. Let Tony

1:01:07

do it, man. Yeah. Oh my God.

1:01:10

He was amazing. He's great. So I've

1:01:12

been watching since the Jurassic era since

1:01:14

the Jurassic era. The first match you

1:01:16

called was David versus Goliath. Yeah, let's

1:01:19

get that ready. Let's get that ready.

1:01:21

Yeah. But they were fighting? Of course.

1:01:23

Well, that's what the rim shots for.

1:01:25

Yeah. Yeah. He says, I love out,

1:01:28

or like, I just, yeah, like, I

1:01:30

love how he was a heel on

1:01:32

commentary. You know, he loves a new

1:01:35

day. He says the week link, Big

1:01:37

E is gone. It's so good. And

1:01:39

then he called Ivar like evil Santa.

1:01:41

He was like, if kids are bad,

1:01:44

Santa brings them coal. If they're really

1:01:46

bad, they get Michael Cole. and Ivar

1:01:48

hit the war machine on Kofi, but

1:01:50

Woods breaks up the pin. Woods brings

1:01:53

in a chair, but Ivar grabs it

1:01:55

from him and hits Woods with it

1:01:57

for the DQ. So New Day wins,

1:02:00

but they don't win the titles. Yeah,

1:02:02

so we gotta do it again. Yeah,

1:02:04

are they saving this for mania? I

1:02:06

don't know. I hope not. After the

1:02:09

match, Kofi hits Ivar with the chair

1:02:11

and then Kofi and Woods whip Eric

1:02:13

headfirst into a chair into a chair

1:02:16

and Tony says, that's what you get

1:02:18

for cheating. He's like Jesse Ventura now.

1:02:20

Yeah. But then they put Eric's head

1:02:22

through the chair and Kofi was about

1:02:25

to jump off the top rope to

1:02:27

murder him, but the refs run out

1:02:29

to put a stop to it. I

1:02:31

mean, look, if the women's tag titles

1:02:34

are getting defended at mania, then one

1:02:36

of the men's will be. Yeah. New

1:02:38

day wins the tag titles at mania

1:02:41

as heels? I mean, probably. Worse things

1:02:43

are gonna happen, so. Yeah. That is

1:02:45

true. Next up, we've got Dirty dumb

1:02:47

versus Penta. Instead of me at all.

1:02:50

Backstage before the match, Balar and Dominic

1:02:52

talk about the fatal four way I

1:02:54

see title match at Mania, Liv says

1:02:57

it doesn't matter which of you win,

1:02:59

right? And Balar is like, of course

1:03:01

not. We've all heard people say that

1:03:03

Dom doesn't have what it takes to

1:03:06

win at Mania. You're not tough enough.

1:03:08

You don't have the killer instinct. You're

1:03:10

a loser. You've got no dick. You've

1:03:12

got no balls. You're a pussy. You

1:03:15

don't even fuck live. Liv. She fucks

1:03:17

you. She fucks you. But tonight you're

1:03:19

going to prove it more wrong. I

1:03:22

believe in you, Dom. And of course,

1:03:24

it's all sarcasm. They all hate each

1:03:26

other. And when will this fucking torture

1:03:28

end of the Judgment Day? I know.

1:03:31

Just when you think they're going to

1:03:33

like maybe break up, like Rea Ripley

1:03:35

joins back. Come on. Fucking a horrible.

1:03:37

That was the new member that Dom

1:03:40

was talking. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So Dom.

1:03:42

Fighter fuck already. Come on. One of

1:03:44

them. Dom hits a Mexican destroyer destroyer.

1:03:47

End. End. End. Six One. Six One.

1:03:49

Six One. And Six One. Six One.

1:03:51

Six One. Six One. Six One. Six

1:03:53

One. Six One. Six One. Six One.

1:03:56

Six One. Six One. Six One. Six

1:03:58

One. Six One. Six One. And then

1:04:00

he goes for the frog splash, but

1:04:03

Penta no sold the first two moves

1:04:05

and got his knees up. Of course.

1:04:07

I guess Ballard was right. He's not

1:04:09

good enough. He's not strong enough. No,

1:04:12

no, then broke Dom's arm and hit

1:04:14

the penta driver for the win. So

1:04:16

that's a shame. Yeah, Dom is out

1:04:18

for mania. Right. Broken arm. Sucks. After

1:04:21

the match, Carlito jumps Penta, then Braun

1:04:23

Breaker comes out, runs down the ramp,

1:04:25

and hits Carlito with maybe the best

1:04:28

spear of all time. A hundred percent.

1:04:30

The one on speed was pretty good

1:04:32

in the rumble, though. That was great,

1:04:34

but I mean, but I mean... He

1:04:37

runs down, he just fucking says, fuck

1:04:39

it. He's Superman. If I die, I

1:04:41

die, whatever. He's Superman's him. And then

1:04:43

he did a flip. Yeah. If I

1:04:46

die, I die. When he hit the

1:04:48

spear, I think he speared Carlito's head.

1:04:50

Yeah. I mean, he was nuts. Yeah.

1:04:53

I mean, it was nuts. Like last

1:04:55

week, Goldberg like put out a video

1:04:57

of like all these wrestlers doing the

1:04:59

spear and he was like, doesn't match

1:05:02

the original. Tork! So then Braun got

1:05:04

in the ring, he spears Dom, he

1:05:06

spears Penta, then Ballard attacked Braun from

1:05:09

behind and held up the icy title,

1:05:11

but then Braun got up and went

1:05:13

for the spear, but Ballard rolled out

1:05:15

of the ring. Ooh. Does Braun retain

1:05:18

or does, do they let Penta like

1:05:20

pin Dom or Ballard here? I mean,

1:05:22

you know, I could almost see Ballard

1:05:24

pinning Dom. I don't think so. Sure,

1:05:27

I can see Dom winning this match.

1:05:30

I can't see Balar. I got Dom

1:05:32

or Penta. Yeah, I don't think Braun

1:05:34

You don't put this many people in

1:05:37

a match to leave the title on

1:05:39

him right? Like an excuse to take

1:05:41

it off so that like we're talking

1:05:44

about he can move on to better

1:05:46

things Hopefully, where he can start gearing

1:05:48

up for money in the bank. Yeah,

1:05:50

no, he's got he's a rumble winner.

1:05:53

He's not a money in the bank

1:05:55

winner you think? Yeah, for sure for

1:05:57

sure he's not a cash in guy

1:06:00

He's a rumble winner. Could you just

1:06:02

see him running to the ring a

1:06:04

hundred miles an hour something this spear

1:06:07

and then be like? I'm cashing in.

1:06:09

I get it, but like, when you

1:06:11

are him, like he is the future

1:06:13

face of the company. Okay. Like, that's,

1:06:16

you win the Royal Rumble when you're

1:06:18

that guy. Yeah. You know? That's all

1:06:20

I'm saying. I'm all about it. We'll

1:06:23

see. Next up, we've got an in-ring

1:06:25

promo from Paul Hayman. He says, I

1:06:27

will always be loyal to Roman Reign

1:06:29

and see him punk. But when it

1:06:32

comes to Wrestleomanomanomania, let's get one thing

1:06:34

perfectly clear. Seth Rollins interrupts. He asks,

1:06:36

Heyman, whose side are you on? See

1:06:39

him punk or Roman Reigns. It occurred

1:06:41

to me that you are neither. Roman

1:06:43

Reigns doesn't give a damn about you.

1:06:46

Roman Reigns uses you. When Roman left

1:06:48

after mania, he left you with Solosakoa.

1:06:50

How did that work out? Did Roman

1:06:52

Reigns come rescue you? He left you

1:06:55

to get massacred in your hometown in

1:06:57

front of your children. Did see him

1:06:59

punk rescue you? Rescue you? And then

1:07:02

he reminds Heyman, you know, Seampunk wasn't

1:07:04

the first choice for war games. I

1:07:06

was, stop me when I'm telling lies,

1:07:08

which was... Oh my god! Wasn't exactly

1:07:11

the same, because... Punk said, tell me

1:07:13

when I'm telling lies, not to stop

1:07:15

me, but saying... Yeah, obviously he was

1:07:18

trying to do the same thing. It

1:07:20

was still great. It was good. He

1:07:22

says, did Punk help you, because he

1:07:25

was your friend? No, he was your

1:07:27

friend. You're in a tough spot. If

1:07:29

only there is a way to remove

1:07:31

you from the situation, I would take

1:07:34

it as a privilege to remove you

1:07:36

from the situation right now. It'll be

1:07:38

quick, one quick stomp, and it's all

1:07:41

over, man. Nobody's here to save you.

1:07:43

Roman's not here. Punk's not here. To

1:07:45

make friends. He's here to make money.

1:07:47

How much are you worth, Paul? He

1:07:50

pushes Paul. Slaps him in the face.

1:07:52

What the fuck's going on? Then Haman

1:07:54

yells, Don't put your damn hands on

1:07:57

me! Wow. And then Seth says, thank

1:07:59

you. And he pushes Haman. into the

1:08:01

corner. Pretty

1:08:05

heelish. I'll just say that much. I'm

1:08:07

gonna say this pretty heelish. I'm gonna

1:08:10

predict something I'm gonna predict Paul ends

1:08:12

up going with Seth. Really? Wow, that's

1:08:14

interesting. I'm calling it right now. I'm

1:08:16

calling it right now. Wow, where did

1:08:19

you hear that one? I don't know

1:08:21

interesting I don't know where did you

1:08:23

hear that one? I don't know interesting

1:08:26

I just came up with it. He

1:08:28

can go against both. Yeah, right, because

1:08:30

then he's not choosing one. Yeah, he's

1:08:32

aligning with Seth. I think so. So

1:08:35

does Seth win this match? I guess

1:08:37

it's a matter. If you're doing it

1:08:39

in the match, then he has to,

1:08:42

right? Yeah, Paul hands him a chair

1:08:44

or something. Like, imagine, like, first, Hayman,

1:08:46

low blows punk. And then Roman's like,

1:08:48

yeah, that's my wise man, let's go.

1:08:51

I knew you loved me. and then

1:08:53

fucking low blows Roman to something yeah

1:08:55

right right what was the last time

1:08:57

he turned on someone because it's been

1:09:00

a while yeah it has been a

1:09:02

while punk is true maybe because he

1:09:04

never really turned on Brock Brock just

1:09:07

left and he went with Roman they

1:09:09

had to make a well Sophie's choice

1:09:11

he did go back with Brock for

1:09:13

like a month but that was because

1:09:16

Roman beat him up turned on him

1:09:18

right yeah right yeah but then why

1:09:20

did he go back to Roman Because

1:09:23

Roman came back and took him back.

1:09:25

Because Brock left again. Yeah. Right. So

1:09:27

that was great. So he looks, he's

1:09:29

about to beat the fuck out of

1:09:32

Haman, but then see him, punk comes

1:09:34

out, he tackles Seth. They brawl outside

1:09:36

the ring. Punk tried to curb stomp

1:09:39

Seth on the steps, but Seth slid

1:09:41

back in the ring. Punk follows him,

1:09:43

but Seth lays him out with a

1:09:45

curb stomp. That was nice. And then

1:09:48

Haman checked on punk. and Seth acted

1:09:50

like he was going to curb stomp

1:09:52

Hayman but then he stopped himself and

1:09:54

Seth tells Hayman now you owe me

1:09:57

a favor. I like the line. Yeah,

1:09:59

I don't like that. It's like oh

1:10:01

wait a minute another favor. Is it

1:10:04

gonna be a favor that he burns

1:10:06

or something? That wouldn't make any sense.

1:10:08

Well, is it too? I mean, is

1:10:10

it too obvious that it seems like

1:10:13

came in joining after this segment? But

1:10:15

I still loved it. I love to

1:10:17

listen. But I mean, they certainly do

1:10:20

that plenty of times where it's like,

1:10:22

you know, you could see it coming

1:10:24

and here it comes, right? Foreshadowing is

1:10:26

the great. But also sometimes they do

1:10:29

it to trick you to think something's

1:10:31

happening one way and doesn't as well.

1:10:33

Yeah. It's interesting. Anything can happen in

1:10:35

this main event. That's the thing. Yeah.

1:10:38

Because really it is for nothing, but

1:10:40

really I guess it's just for Paul

1:10:42

Hammond's love. That's what they're all fighting

1:10:45

for. Right. His love and admiration. But

1:10:47

it seems like if he goes with

1:10:49

Seth and it is a heel turn,

1:10:51

then it'll still be like... It'll still

1:10:54

be like, it'll be similar to the

1:10:56

Roman-Haman relationship where Seth is bullying Heyman

1:10:58

into like, you know, you're my bitch.

1:11:01

Yeah. Not like a punk situation where

1:11:03

it's like, you're my friend. Yeah. I

1:11:05

think it's funny that week to week,

1:11:07

that bet keeps going back and forth.

1:11:10

Yeah. I don't think it's happening. I'm

1:11:12

like, it's for sure happening at Russell

1:11:14

Media. I guess we'll see what happens

1:11:16

next week. Yeah. Yeah, they're not gonna

1:11:19

burn it before WrestleMania. No way. I

1:11:21

know, but like. Yeah, because you still

1:11:23

have to have the image of Heyman

1:11:26

walking out with punk. And you needed

1:11:28

this because there was no way to

1:11:30

prove Seth turned heel if he's just

1:11:32

beating the fuck out of punk with

1:11:35

a chair. But if Heyman joined Seth,

1:11:37

that's a that's a full heel turn

1:11:39

of course. Yeah. And I mean, that's

1:11:42

the thing is like, Heyman's never a

1:11:44

baby face manager for long. No. No.

1:11:46

That's where like Roman just has to

1:11:48

just be Roman again and just be

1:11:51

a dickhead because it doesn't work any

1:11:53

other way. Yeah. But that's the end

1:11:55

of raw, I mean really good closing

1:11:58

segments to both shows. Definitely. Just because

1:12:00

the stars of the fucking company, the

1:12:02

real stars. Not Cody blows not that

1:12:04

guy the real stars seeing punk Seth

1:12:07

Rollins and Roman rains doing a fantastic

1:12:09

job to sell their Russell

1:12:11

Mania main event match.

1:12:13

Yeah Bravo gentlemen

1:12:15

Bravo Let's give some awards.

1:12:18

Yep Who would you have

1:12:20

his worst dress just kidding

1:12:22

Charlotte Flair sweep it best rest

1:12:24

I had Eo, Eo, Skye. I

1:12:26

had Kathy Kelly's tits, specifically. I

1:12:28

had a really hard time. I

1:12:30

had a very hard time as

1:12:32

well. I was also hard. I

1:12:35

was so hard. I was, it

1:12:37

was, I was so hard. But

1:12:39

then I, the time was so

1:12:41

hard. So proud. Then I jacked

1:12:43

it and Eo one. Eo, just

1:12:45

because of the booty shorts. It

1:12:47

was like, you know what? Booty

1:12:49

shorts. What have we ever seen

1:12:51

Eo? We ever seen Eo and Eo.

1:12:53

Absolutely, yeah, she looked amazing. It was

1:12:56

the heart of times, it was the

1:12:58

hardest of times. If you give me

1:13:00

a minute, I might change my mind,

1:13:02

I just got to go to the

1:13:04

restroom. Yeah. Worst acting. I went with

1:13:06

Charlotte. Charlotte was bad. Charlotte was bad.

1:13:08

And I hate Charlotte more than Stratton,

1:13:10

but Stratton was worse. Okay, well, I

1:13:13

just can't stand the way she delivers

1:13:15

her lines. It looks like her first

1:13:17

fucking lesson in promo class where it's

1:13:19

like, go ahead try. She needs a

1:13:22

lot of work, got it. Joe right,

1:13:24

I'm gonna go Jayuso Okay, it's

1:13:26

just not ready, and he's

1:13:28

just so I just hated

1:13:30

how he delivered his lines

1:13:32

Okay, his brother just got

1:13:35

beat to a pup. He's like you

1:13:37

talked to your mom You do he

1:13:39

he says do you have a mom?

1:13:41

Does she love you? Do you have a

1:13:43

mom? Do you have a mom? And he

1:13:45

goes. Do you have a mother? Yeah

1:13:47

Oh, oh sorry gee is that the

1:13:50

only thing you understand you

1:13:52

got a mommy Yeah, best

1:13:54

acting punk this was crazy

1:13:56

because first it was

1:13:58

punk because of Smackdown. And

1:14:01

then Seth's promo to Hayman. I

1:14:03

mean, so fucking good. I went

1:14:05

Seth. I went Seth. It takes

1:14:07

a lot to beat punk in

1:14:09

this category. Let me tell you.

1:14:12

Yeah. Worse comments? Charlotte correcting Tiffany

1:14:14

Stratton, because Tiffany said like, oh,

1:14:16

you're just a Nepo baby. And

1:14:18

Charlotte's like, Nepo Queen. That was

1:14:20

awful. What the fuck? That was

1:14:23

awful. That was awful. That was

1:14:25

awful. No. Yeah, Charlotte did Kaiser's

1:14:27

and my D.M.'s I guess because

1:14:29

I mean, why would he? Because

1:14:31

he's terrible. Yeah, so he's definitely

1:14:33

not. Best comment. This was very

1:14:36

tough because Seth Rollins was just

1:14:38

fucking spitting line after line after

1:14:40

line. Yeah. I mean, I guess

1:14:42

if I had to boil it

1:14:44

down like him saying like, did

1:14:47

Roman come save you from... We

1:14:49

left you with solo. I mean

1:14:51

that whole thing, like they're not

1:14:53

your friends. I know, it was

1:14:55

great. It was amazing. Because he

1:14:58

had a lot of great points.

1:15:00

Yeah, yeah, obviously honorable mention to

1:15:02

kill Tony in some of his

1:15:04

lines. Yes, sure, which is great.

1:15:06

Yes, worst match. B Fab versus

1:15:09

Naomi. That is correct. Double down.

1:15:11

They always got to get to

1:15:13

nine every fucking time. Right, it

1:15:15

made it so slow. That's true.

1:15:17

I'll go with that. Best match.

1:15:19

Bailey? Yeah. Bailey versus Lyra. I

1:15:22

agree. That's Gracie. I know. That's

1:15:24

the shocker. Worse move. Bee Fab's

1:15:26

punches and forearms. Pretty bad. I

1:15:28

had Bailey letting go of the

1:15:30

walls of Jericho. Yeah. I was

1:15:33

gonna let this go. I had

1:15:35

Naomi's new finisher. The code breaker.

1:15:37

The code breaker. The shitty code

1:15:39

breaker. Best move super spear sweeping

1:15:41

mega spear mega spear mega spear.

1:15:44

Yeah, make an ultra spear big

1:15:46

dick spear cock slap spear death

1:15:48

to Carly Yeah, yeah, that could

1:15:50

be move of the year worst

1:15:52

moment finding out Kevin Owens is

1:15:55

injured Well if it's real for

1:15:57

sure that's a horrible moment, but

1:15:59

it's got to be flare and

1:16:01

tiffy Of course, I mean, I

1:16:03

must stick with Kevin Flayed Stratton.

1:16:05

I'm legit worried Yeah, but like

1:16:08

I know it was but Kevin

1:16:10

delivered a great speech like it's

1:16:12

not like the segment was bad.

1:16:14

It was just bad news if

1:16:16

you're crying that creates emotion. We're

1:16:19

not it's not like Worst real-life

1:16:21

moment. Yeah, we go to Kevin

1:16:23

Owens, but this is a TV

1:16:25

show. Well, were you crying when

1:16:27

Tony Stark died? Of course. Was

1:16:30

that horrible? Yeah. Horrible. No, it's

1:16:32

great movie watching. Yeah, best moment.

1:16:34

No, Cody Rhodes. Yeah, all right.

1:16:36

Just kidding, the end of raw.

1:16:38

End of raw. Yeah, I said

1:16:41

in Heyman. Uh-huh. Absolutely. Bada-bing? Bada-boo.

1:16:43

Yeah. Okay. All right, so let's

1:16:45

get to some breaking news. So

1:16:47

Vince McMahon, Linda McMahon, and the

1:16:49

WWE have all filed motions to

1:16:51

dismiss the lawsuit brought by five

1:16:54

former WWF ringboys alleging abuse in

1:16:56

the 1980s. The suit was filed

1:16:58

in Maryland, and all three parties

1:17:00

argue that the case should be

1:17:02

dismissed due to lack of jurisdiction.

1:17:05

Their filings claim none of the

1:17:07

plaintiffs are from Maryland, and that

1:17:09

WWE Vince and Linda. lack significant

1:17:11

ties to the state. So they're

1:17:13

not even saying like, win. We

1:17:16

had nothing to do with this.

1:17:18

Just like, wrong state, idiots. Yeah,

1:17:20

basically. What the fuck? That's done.

1:17:22

Wow. So we'll see where that

1:17:24

goes. It's just interesting that for

1:17:27

now, Vin still does have some

1:17:29

ties to WWE. Again, he still

1:17:31

has some stock in TKO still.

1:17:33

Yeah. But anybody can buy stock.

1:17:35

I'm never selling the rest. I've

1:17:37

got eight billion dollars where I

1:17:40

need. Ten billion. I'm 10 billion.

1:17:42

That's a good idea. I can

1:17:44

buy AW tomorrow. I can shit

1:17:46

on as many women as I

1:17:48

want with 8 billion. I can

1:17:51

do that with... what I've got

1:17:53

right now. Also, Sorea recently told

1:17:55

Russell Zone that she hasn't spoken

1:17:57

with WWE about returning yet, but

1:17:59

she's still interested and teased doing

1:18:02

a future Royal Rumble or Elimination

1:18:04

Chamber appearance. I mean, is she

1:18:06

healthy? I don't know, that's the

1:18:08

question. Yeah. Like, she's has a

1:18:10

book tour right now and she's

1:18:13

like, I'm focused on my book

1:18:15

toll page, hey. You know, all

1:18:17

that stuff, so. Why would AJ

1:18:19

Lee not want to at least

1:18:21

be like, like she was a

1:18:23

manager at one manager at one

1:18:26

point? or a GM or whatever.

1:18:28

Like why not do that again?

1:18:30

If you can't wrestle. Because I

1:18:32

mean, Adam Pierce is there. You

1:18:34

gonna take his job? Yeah. Guy's

1:18:37

too good. Belize. That's all I've

1:18:39

got for new, so let's get

1:18:41

to rumors. Rumors! Vince McMahon gets

1:18:43

kicked out for sex allegations? That

1:18:45

happened! But then he returns and

1:18:48

takes back the company? He did

1:18:50

that! And then Vince sells the

1:18:52

company but stays in power? Oh

1:18:54

my gosh! And then Vince dies

1:18:56

his hair black and has a

1:18:59

stupid mustache? Gunverb! Fyful says pitches

1:19:01

were made for Becky Lynch to

1:19:03

appear at Russellmania, but nothing ended

1:19:05

up coming into fruition. That's the

1:19:07

big question is... I bullshit. When

1:19:10

is Becky Lynch coming back? Yes.

1:19:12

Still don't know. We need you,

1:19:14

Becky, we need you on Smackdown.

1:19:16

Go take that belt, please. Because

1:19:18

my God. How could she find

1:19:20

her way into that? No, I

1:19:23

don't think that's gonna happen. Yeah.

1:19:25

But hopefully she comes back soon.

1:19:27

You know, raw after mania, who

1:19:29

knows? Also, PWM Center says, Kairi

1:19:31

Sain is very close to being

1:19:34

cleared for return, as well as

1:19:36

JD McDonah. Oh no. Really? I

1:19:38

thought his was like a long-term

1:19:40

thing. At the time, they only

1:19:42

said a couple months. So, fair

1:19:45

enough. Yeah, we'll see there. Also,

1:19:47

Dave Meltzer says he was given

1:19:49

the impression that Lana will not...

1:19:51

be returning to WWE with Rusef.

1:19:53

It's probably the smart play because

1:19:56

like everything they did like obviously

1:19:58

when Rusef and Lana first got

1:20:00

up to the main roster it

1:20:02

was great. Lana was you know

1:20:04

the Russian woman Rusef Grash but

1:20:06

then it just went off the

1:20:09

rails with the I'm fucking Lashley

1:20:11

and now I lost the accent

1:20:13

and all this shit yeah like

1:20:15

we don't need to do that

1:20:17

again. She did a great actress

1:20:20

but when she was the Russian

1:20:22

it was good yeah. And then

1:20:24

Fightful says Kelly Kelly has signed

1:20:26

a legends deal with W.E. So

1:20:28

maybe we'll be seeing. I want

1:20:31

to. And the girls and the

1:20:33

boys and the girls and the

1:20:35

girls and the girls and the

1:20:37

boys. Exactly how that goes. It's

1:20:39

a great song. It's a great

1:20:42

song. Yeah. I listen to it

1:20:44

every day. That's all I've got

1:20:46

for rumors. So it's time for

1:20:48

the Mark reports. You

1:21:02

got this Tony. Come on. With

1:21:04

your host, Eric. Yeah, you got

1:21:06

it. Slam and tin. Flaming tin!

1:21:09

Shut the fuck off. Enough! Like

1:21:11

eight weeks in a row, he's

1:21:13

got it wrong. Yeah, she's crazy.

1:21:15

I've paid him so much fucking

1:21:18

money. What's your total up to

1:21:20

now? At least like $25. Okay.

1:21:22

I self to make that button.

1:21:24

Yeah. Take it away, Eric. All

1:21:26

right. So. Let's see, first thing

1:21:29

I got, remember Bailey's biggest fan

1:21:31

from Annex C? Is he? Oh

1:21:33

yeah, she's a wrestler now, right?

1:21:35

She is, and she has been

1:21:38

invited to WWED's tryouts in Las

1:21:40

Vegas. Sure. The Girl Hood dream.

1:21:42

Yeah, the Girl Hood dream. She

1:21:44

tweeted BFS, we did it. Oh

1:21:46

my God, thank you so much

1:21:49

WWED for this opportunity. See you

1:21:51

in Las Vegas. Okay, I want

1:21:53

to say she was champion of

1:21:55

Thunder Rosa's wrestling promotion. Jesus Christ.

1:21:58

So I guess her family relocated

1:22:00

to Texas or something? Okay. Okay,

1:22:02

what else? Eric and Tony. Go

1:22:04

ahead. Also, according to Russell votes.

1:22:06

Super reliable wrestle votes. Of course.

1:22:09

It looks like Alister Black may

1:22:11

be Randy Orton's WrestleMania opponent. I

1:22:13

mean, I don't like that. That's

1:22:15

not big enough. Yeah. If you

1:22:18

have Rousaf, how do you not

1:22:20

do Rousaf? Because you haven't been

1:22:22

promoting Rousaf. F-F-K-K-S-He's a big enough

1:22:24

name to be a surprise. Alister

1:22:27

Black's not a big enough name

1:22:29

for mania. I'm sorry. He's not

1:22:31

a- He's getting R-K-O-D, if it's

1:22:33

Alistair Black. Welcome back, dead. Hey,

1:22:35

welcome back, you did. Yeah, he'll

1:22:38

beat Alistair. You have to. You

1:22:40

got something else? Uh, no, that's

1:22:42

actually all I have this week.

1:22:44

Okay? Okay. Okay. This is how

1:22:47

I get through the Mark report.

1:22:49

It's so good. I mean, because

1:22:51

it's, mine, I'm doing such a

1:22:53

bad job. You know? Like, you're

1:22:55

like, oh, the Bailey girl, like

1:22:58

you're talking about- Did you not

1:23:00

listen to anything in my report?

1:23:02

Eric, I love your report. It

1:23:04

has- it's created such wonderful sound

1:23:07

bites as- Oh, I'm not ready.

1:23:09

A freaking mark. Yeah, it's fine.

1:23:11

Okay? Without the Mark Port, we

1:23:13

wouldn't have that. It's amazing. I

1:23:15

know. It's like one of the

1:23:18

best favorite parts of the show

1:23:20

now. Now we're gonna do a

1:23:22

cameo for you. record board, Eric,

1:23:24

slammel him, handle them. Am I

1:23:27

in W? Am I in? No.

1:23:29

I didn't try out. They said,

1:23:31

get the fuck out of here.

1:23:33

Why are you here? I don't

1:23:36

get out in the wrong thing.

1:23:38

I didn't try out and they

1:23:40

looked at me and said, dude,

1:23:42

fucking mark. Yeah, of course. Yeah,

1:23:44

of course. All right, trivia time.

1:23:47

Yes, I do want to thank

1:23:49

Carolyn Holly last week for the

1:23:51

trivia. I don't think I've mentioned

1:23:53

it, but Bobby the mark is

1:23:56

pulling it up for this week.

1:23:58

The question is, Jay Uso. Well,

1:24:00

probably not main event. WrestleMania, even

1:24:02

though he won the Royal Rumble.

1:24:04

He's not. Who is the last

1:24:07

Royal Rumble winner to not main

1:24:09

event? Bailey. Men, sorry. Men, men.

1:24:11

Okay. No, I got that one.

1:24:13

Obviously. Alberto Del Rio? No. No,

1:24:16

it's been, it's been more recent

1:24:18

than that. Correct. Okay, so was

1:24:20

Cody last two years and he

1:24:22

main evented. Who was before Cody?

1:24:25

I think I know. You want

1:24:27

to just say it or yeah,

1:24:29

shamus? No, it's way more. I'm

1:24:31

tell it's way more reason way

1:24:33

more reason who? Okay, so Brock

1:24:36

Lesner, main evented. Okay, okay, and

1:24:38

then 2021 was edge and he

1:24:40

main evented. 2020 was Drew McIntyre

1:24:42

and he main evented COVID-mania. Seth

1:24:45

Rollins 2019. That was 2019. Yeah.

1:24:47

Yeah. All right. Is that the

1:24:49

Rollins? Yeah, I did it. Teamwork.

1:24:51

Teamwork. Yeah, we did it. We

1:24:53

did it. Huh. Why did you

1:24:56

wipe your hand? I don't know.

1:24:58

You're like, and I got news

1:25:00

for you. Yeah, Eric. You're a

1:25:02

freaking mark. Okay. I think I

1:25:05

haven't, I won in a while,

1:25:07

so that was good. He set

1:25:09

me too, but the other one

1:25:11

I'll use for next week because

1:25:13

it's really good. All right. It's

1:25:16

all right. No, it's good. It's

1:25:18

good. It's good. All right. Let's

1:25:20

do some fan questions. Holkogan's brother.

1:25:22

Brother. Did my biggest fan, Eric

1:25:25

cover the Mark report about Carl

1:25:27

Anderson saying he's worried Kevin Owens

1:25:29

will get fired after his injury

1:25:31

since it happened to Carl himself?

1:25:34

Man, first Eric worries about Kevin

1:25:36

getting in trouble with Trish. Now

1:25:38

Carl is worried he's gonna get

1:25:40

fired. Who's the bigger mark? Yeah,

1:25:42

you're not Kevin Owens, Carl Anderson.

1:25:45

Yeah. So, yeah. They just resigned

1:25:47

him for five years. I don't

1:25:49

think they're gonna fire him. Right.

1:25:51

There's pit sweat. Oos was scared,

1:25:54

but he's not scared anymore? How

1:25:56

can you guys not love this

1:25:58

guy? He's kind of like Kevin

1:26:00

McAllister yelling at home alone. You

1:26:02

hear that? I'm not afraid anymore!

1:26:05

Then the old man walks up

1:26:07

and Kevin runs away screaming. Victor

1:26:09

Castillo, have you noticed Jay Uso's

1:26:11

physique lately? No wonder he botched

1:26:14

the over-the-top rope dive. Gravity had

1:26:16

to work harder. Ooh. But in

1:26:18

all seriousness, another reason to not

1:26:20

take Jay seriously, he should be

1:26:22

in the best shape for Wrestlemania.

1:26:25

That's a good point. He was

1:26:27

never in great shape though. I

1:26:29

mean, it's not like he ever

1:26:31

had like abs. Yeah. He always

1:26:34

just kind of had that body.

1:26:36

He didn't have like the baller

1:26:38

obs. We've got, yeah. Just a

1:26:40

quick sidebar for the trivia as

1:26:43

I'm kind of reading more into

1:26:45

the question. The question was, when

1:26:47

was the last time a Royal

1:26:49

Rumble winner didn't main event a

1:26:51

Wrestle-mania? The 2019 would be wrong

1:26:54

if you included the women because

1:26:56

Becky won a main event in

1:26:58

Wrestle-mania that year. So when was

1:27:00

the last time a Royal Rumble

1:27:03

winner didn't? Oh. If you want

1:27:05

to kind of throw in a

1:27:07

little sidebar to the trivia. Okay,

1:27:09

include the women Oh Oh You're

1:27:43

1:27:45

you. That's the finals, I think

1:27:47

you just did. Again, in the

1:27:49

finals? It's one of the, it's

1:27:52

probably the most pressed one. Yeah.

1:27:54

It was the first button. I

1:27:56

know, but we've added some real

1:27:58

gems on there. Sure. B. Sands,

1:28:00

not a question, but a fun

1:28:03

fact in a rumor. Bobby Rude

1:28:05

produced the LWO match. Well, someone's

1:28:07

gotta do it. Yeah. Don't remind

1:28:09

me of how Rude is a

1:28:12

backstage, Kevin. It's not so bad.

1:28:14

And they let you keep your

1:28:16

wrestler contract? No, no, no. The

1:28:18

From Undertaker. I think it's time

1:28:20

for a new Russell fight episode

1:28:23

only with a twist. Andrew and

1:28:25

Josh debating blow jobs with Joe

1:28:27

or Eric as the moderator. Yeah,

1:28:29

I think I'll win that one

1:28:32

easily. How could you even talk

1:28:34

about blow jobs if you never

1:28:36

had one? That's true, right. All

1:28:38

right, Andrew, what is your favorite

1:28:41

part of a blow job? All

1:28:43

right, Josh, your rebuttal. Exactly. I

1:28:45

don't like him. Tits, well, no,

1:28:47

that's a tit job, Josh, that's

1:28:49

different. I wonder if he's had

1:28:52

a tit job, we should ask

1:28:54

him. Long dung Silver, after watching

1:28:56

Smackdown, my wife decided she wants

1:28:58

to be Charlotte Flair for Halloween

1:29:01

this year. Oh, very scary. That's

1:29:03

horrifying. Yeah, that's horrifying. Yeah. Drew

1:29:05

Doshi, I know you guys didn't

1:29:07

like the London crowd, but when

1:29:09

they charged us the equivalent of

1:29:12

$350 for average seats to watch,

1:29:14

potty-pussy versus Piper Niven, you better

1:29:16

believe we're going to sing like

1:29:18

crazy. Fair point. Fair enough. Good

1:29:21

enough. Yeah. Omar, Kathy was looking

1:29:23

sexy as fuck like always, but

1:29:25

Eo Sky was the babe that

1:29:27

officially gave me rock hard. Oh,

1:29:29

wow. She bring great honor to

1:29:32

my boner. This is like Borat

1:29:34

rotis. She bring a great honor

1:29:36

to my boner. P.S. Eric, did

1:29:38

you bring the zip ties? Ah

1:29:41

shit, I forgot. Oh my God,

1:29:43

I was preparing for it. Oh

1:29:45

really? I was warming up my

1:29:47

wrist. Just doing all kinds of

1:29:50

stuff. Yeah, all sorts of exercises.

1:29:52

Yeah, stack of dives. You call

1:29:54

a neck. Fun fact, Japanese women

1:29:56

are winless at WrestleMania. All time.

1:29:58

That's probably true. That's probably true.

1:30:01

That's probably true. That's probably true.

1:30:03

That's probably true. Did Oscar and

1:30:05

Kairi retain? Never. I don't think

1:30:07

so. Never. Like a tag belt?

1:30:10

No. That sounds about right. Yeah.

1:30:12

Amir. How much would it take

1:30:14

for y' y'all to take? Braun

1:30:16

breaker. I mean, it's not real.

1:30:18

You're taking a bump on the,

1:30:21

on the aisle, so that the

1:30:23

floor's real. Yeah. So that, you

1:30:25

know what I mean? Or is

1:30:27

it? How much? Like, I get

1:30:30

paid? Yeah. A Carlito salary? Is

1:30:32

that good? 500 bucks? Yeah. Yeah.

1:30:34

James A. Just Tiffany versus Charlotte,

1:30:36

the 2025 version of Sean versus

1:30:38

Brett, because they both fucking hate

1:30:41

each other in real life. Yeah,

1:30:43

except the only differences, you know,

1:30:45

Sean and Brett were, oh, Sean

1:30:47

and Brett, like two of the

1:30:50

best ever. And their segments were

1:30:52

still amazing, despite hating each other,

1:30:54

where this is dog shit. Do

1:30:56

they really hate each other? I

1:30:59

don't know. I feel like those

1:31:01

reports were blown way out of

1:31:03

proportion. Yeah. Like I don't think,

1:31:05

I think they were both. a

1:31:07

little bamboozled by the crowd hating

1:31:10

this whole segment. Yeah. And Charlotte

1:31:12

went off script with, I can't

1:31:14

hear you. And she's clearly talking

1:31:16

over Tiffany, because Tiffany's struggling through

1:31:19

her. promo and then the squeaky

1:31:21

squeaky bowl. Yeah, it was all

1:31:23

just bad. And the squeakies. Yeah.

1:31:25

Captain NDA, I really hope they

1:31:27

at least put Kevin Owens on

1:31:30

commentary for Orton's match. Maybe if

1:31:32

he can safely do it, still

1:31:34

have Orton give him the pun

1:31:36

kick yet. That's not happening. Jesus.

1:31:39

Yeah. It's his neck. It's a

1:31:41

stupid neck. I mean, the other

1:31:43

thing is like, you know, give

1:31:45

him some time off. had like

1:31:47

Jim Cornett has a great saying

1:31:50

how do we miss you if

1:31:52

you never go away if you're

1:31:54

injured for real go away don't

1:31:56

do commentary for you know right

1:31:59

right the rizzler with exception of

1:32:01

Cody's title I can't think of

1:32:03

any other title that has relevance

1:32:05

I don't even know if Cody's

1:32:08

does anymore true and don't get

1:32:10

me started on any of the

1:32:12

women's belts yeah it's it's a

1:32:14

good point yeah Don't get me

1:32:16

started. Mr. Milkshake, does Jesse the

1:32:19

Mine know how Joker got his

1:32:21

scars? I don't know, it's interesting.

1:32:23

That's a toughie. On the spot?

1:32:25

That's a tough one on the

1:32:28

spot, for sure. You know, McMahon,

1:32:30

you know, how he got those

1:32:32

scars in the movie Batman? Oh,

1:32:34

why don't you tell me? Jesse?

1:32:36

You know, they didn't use makeup.

1:32:39

They actually carved his face up.

1:32:41

So you didn't see his face

1:32:43

on the speech. Oh, okay, that's

1:32:45

enough for you, Jesse. Jesus Christ.

1:32:48

Jesus Christ, go back to bed.

1:32:50

We never went to the moon.

1:32:52

Okay, we'll be right back on

1:32:54

Monday Night Raw. We never really

1:32:57

made a Batman movie. Jesse, what

1:32:59

the fuck. Whopper, whopper, whopper. That's

1:33:01

right. Boston Sider, I'm sure you

1:33:03

guys already mentioned it, but can

1:33:05

I get an extra Jake the

1:33:08

Snake for Eo Skye backing out

1:33:10

of the entrance ramp? Love the

1:33:12

pod, keep up, the great work.

1:33:14

Boston. And we're keeping something up.

1:33:17

Oh, hey, didn't see you there.

1:33:19

Push Fireberry, add one more to

1:33:21

the triple threat at Mania, and

1:33:23

make it a number one contender

1:33:25

match. Drew Orton Sammy. Well, if

1:33:28

you're gonna add anyone, it's Drew.

1:33:30

He's the one that makes the

1:33:32

most sense in that story. For

1:33:34

sure. Yeah, because he hates punk

1:33:37

and all that. Yeah. Push Drew.

1:33:39

Barry Orton, Fire Sammy. Yeah, sure.

1:33:41

Pop culture junkie this year's WrestleMania

1:33:43

build-up feels very underwhelming with Vince

1:33:45

Gahn. How did we end up

1:33:48

with such a mess for most

1:33:50

of it? If not the entire

1:33:52

card. I think this should be

1:33:54

an example to go back to

1:33:57

one night. I mean, my God,

1:33:59

yeah. Yeah. Final match for a

1:34:01

Rumble winner versus the WWE champion,

1:34:03

no more than eight matches total,

1:34:06

and all must have reasons to

1:34:08

be a mania match. Also, all

1:34:10

hail, Eo's cheeks. Oh, yeah. I

1:34:12

bet you can get down to

1:34:14

five matches at mania. I could

1:34:17

do it. I'm looking at the

1:34:19

matches I'm interested in. And one,

1:34:21

two, three, four. Eo. punk Roman

1:34:23

seth too for me. Yeah, I

1:34:26

see title at things interesting because

1:34:28

I like breaker and I like

1:34:30

penta and then Stiles Logan. I

1:34:32

can't see Logan for sure. That's

1:34:34

four. I don't even really need

1:34:37

to see Jacob and Knight at

1:34:39

mania. No, I exit that one.

1:34:41

Orton, K-O would have been on

1:34:43

there. I would say Stiles and

1:34:46

Logan and then the triple three

1:34:48

Roman pumpkin Seth too for me.

1:34:50

Yeah, yeah. Maybe if they make

1:34:52

it good if they write it.

1:34:54

Well, maybe there's a lot of

1:34:57

ifs in there I feel like

1:34:59

that's gonna have a lot of

1:35:01

run-ins Yeah, the rock's gotta be

1:35:03

there of course. Yeah Ryan Guttrow

1:35:06

Josh trying to spell phone on

1:35:08

the war pod sounded like the

1:35:10

raw theme theme fee. No, that

1:35:12

was I don't think that was

1:35:15

the dynasty dynasty recap. I told

1:35:17

Josh spell phone and he went

1:35:19

fee fee I was like well.

1:35:21

That's not a letter So go

1:35:23

go back to your seat. It's

1:35:26

amazing. That's what I said. Really

1:35:28

I said that I said that.

1:35:30

P5-4-5, I am really dumb. Valkiller's

1:35:32

lips. I went to a comedy

1:35:35

show Saturday and a lot of

1:35:37

the jokes were about poop. I

1:35:39

even heard a distinctive laugh in

1:35:41

the crowd go, ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, that's such

1:35:43

good shit. That's tremendous. That's tremendous.

1:35:46

He's alive. I never went anywhere.

1:35:48

The Dashing Dan, let's be honest,

1:35:50

Wade Barrett should have at least

1:35:52

been WWE champion at least once.

1:35:55

A good wrestler, good gimmick and

1:35:57

stable and solid on the mic,

1:35:59

but he was always injured. That

1:36:01

was the thing. How disgusted must

1:36:03

he be to commentate on a

1:36:06

human jiz joke who will probably

1:36:08

be winning a top title at

1:36:10

Mania? And on top of that,

1:36:12

the guy who needlessly buried him

1:36:15

15 years ago is also winning

1:36:17

a top title to a Sina?

1:36:19

Sure. This question is from... We

1:36:21

don't even know who we are!

1:36:24

Push Fire Barry! Raw Underground returns

1:36:26

weekly with Shane McMahon and the

1:36:28

Strippers. Okay. That helps. All right.

1:36:30

The 24-7 title returns and it's

1:36:32

featured multiple times weekly on both

1:36:35

shows. Fire that. So both of

1:36:37

these things have happened. So go

1:36:39

ahead. The Cruiserweight Division returns and

1:36:41

gets an hour on raw each

1:36:44

week. Like another hour or just

1:36:46

one of the hours. an hour

1:36:48

on raw each week but like

1:36:50

it's not adding an hour to

1:36:52

raw no but an hour I

1:36:55

would push raw underground yeah push

1:36:57

that Barry cruiser rates fire 24

1:36:59

7 title yeah really yes I

1:37:01

would be okay with the 24

1:37:04

7 coming back because the worst

1:37:06

I know but like and then

1:37:08

you've got like fucking million dollar

1:37:10

man either Joe pretending to pin

1:37:12

someone to win it I don't

1:37:15

want to see any one to

1:37:17

win it I don't want to

1:37:19

see any of these yeah but

1:37:21

like at least raw underground has

1:37:24

Shane and the stripers That's a

1:37:26

good five seconds. I'll give you...

1:37:28

Shane and Strippers. It's not Shane

1:37:30

stripping. Yeah. Tyler Rogers. Now I'm

1:37:33

thinking Seth might win the trip.

1:37:35

threats and Seth's favor might be

1:37:37

that he's put into the main

1:37:39

event of night. People got to

1:37:41

stop saying this. It's not happening

1:37:44

guys. No one's getting added to

1:37:46

Sina Rhodes. It's not happening. Sorry.

1:37:48

I know we all like to

1:37:50

think something exciting might happen like

1:37:53

that, but you got to let

1:37:55

it go guys. I mean even

1:37:57

we, you know, talked about it

1:37:59

for a while, but I'm over

1:38:01

it. I've accepted it's not happening.

1:38:04

The only person that would make

1:38:06

sense is punk because he's over

1:38:08

to give him the title. Yes.

1:38:10

But you have to give a

1:38:13

scene of the title now. You

1:38:15

have to. Yeah. What the fuck

1:38:17

was all for if he doesn't

1:38:19

win the title? Of course. And

1:38:22

break the record as a heel

1:38:24

and have a little run. Yeah.

1:38:26

CB, can someone to please explain

1:38:28

to me how not stomping Heyman

1:38:30

means Heyman means Heyman now owes

1:38:33

Rollins a favor, what's Roman's Roman's

1:38:35

favor going to be? Well. Well,

1:38:37

it's just Seth's bullying. Yeah, he

1:38:39

didn't kill him. He's like, I

1:38:42

could have killed you, right? Yeah,

1:38:44

but I didn't. Shrimp Taco, what

1:38:46

if? Paul Heyman turns on punk,

1:38:48

then Roman, then Tease is joining

1:38:50

Seth, but Lowe blows him, and

1:38:53

then Brock Lester comes back in

1:38:55

teams with Paul. It's that time

1:38:57

of the year where everyone has

1:38:59

these crazy ideas. It's gonna get

1:39:02

crazier. Yeah. Yvonne a sucker Rick

1:39:04

doesn't it seem like it should

1:39:06

be seeing punk versus Roman what's

1:39:08

the point of Seth I mean

1:39:10

he hates both of them I

1:39:13

don't know this I mean the

1:39:15

triple threat they had nothing else

1:39:17

for Seth mine might as well

1:39:19

there's an AW belt and Eric

1:40:37

and Josh didn't have it in

1:40:40

him to take it from me

1:40:42

this past week. Josh got the

1:40:44

surprise appearance right. But then he

1:40:46

boxed the other fucking matches so

1:40:48

bad that he still got last

1:40:51

place. Who is the surprise? Young

1:40:53

bucks. The young bucks. Oh, he

1:40:55

said that. I almost put the

1:40:57

young bucks. He would have won.

1:41:00

I would have won. Yeah. I

1:41:02

was like that. Did you put

1:41:04

instead? I took the point. I

1:41:06

never take the point. It's funny

1:41:08

because we should have seen that

1:41:11

coming. I just hate AEW so

1:41:13

much. I didn't even cross my

1:41:15

fucking line. Like I didn't want

1:41:17

them to come back. So I'm

1:41:20

like, and I couldn't see like

1:41:22

a viable way to get them

1:41:24

in. Right. Well, what would they

1:41:26

even do? Who they? Yeah. Yep.
