2:02

yeah even Mickey's gonna be like no

2:04

touching yeah so that's right that's right

2:06

it'll be like all those Sasha Banks

2:09

photos where she's standing 20 feet from

2:11

the fan who paid a hundred dollars

2:13

to take a photo or the Becky

2:15

where she's holding her hand and it's

2:17

a crunch fist like that well that's

2:19

why that camp to stand so far

2:21

away now this those like prom photos

2:24

that those marks took with the few

2:26

I mean that's just horrible yeah Here's

2:28

40 bucks, can I talk to

2:30

you? That's basically what you're paying

2:32

for. Can I put my cock

2:34

on your butt with clothes on,

2:36

but my cock is on your

2:38

butt? I totally had sex abeculence.

2:40

Exactly. Well, I mean, you got

2:42

closer than we did, that's for

2:44

sure. She's like, your neck beard

2:46

brushing my neck. We just back

2:49

off. Sorry. But yeah, well, we

2:51

miss Eric. He's, I guess, having

2:53

a blast in Disney world right

2:55

now. We'll see him next week.

2:57

I'm sure Because I mean next week

2:59

is the Royal Rumble unless he's

3:01

just going to go straight

3:03

from Orlando to Indianapolis Probably

3:05

there's a chance God wet.

3:07

So today's the 21st and

3:09

then yeah, the rumble is the

3:12

second February second right? It's on

3:14

a Saturday or Saturday the first.

3:16

Yeah, I think it's the Saturday

3:18

February first. Uh-huh. There you

3:20

go. Yep. Royal rumble's coming up.

3:23

I'm very excited Star Power. Because

3:25

again, it's like, yeah, we could

3:27

have a favorite or maybe someone

3:29

can be the favorite to win the

3:31

Royal Rumble, but it could be wrong.

3:34

Like we talked how like there's eight

3:36

guys that could really realistically win it.

3:38

You can be like, yeah, I can

3:40

see that. Yeah, it's cool. It's it's

3:42

a lot like the 2017 rumble that

3:44

we went to in San Antonio. We

3:46

were like, it's Finnbala returning gonna win

3:48

it. Like, who's gonna win? All of

3:50

a sudden it was Randy Orton last

3:53

minute which like no one saw coming

3:55

that could happen again this year. Except our

3:57

dumb ass is pulled up the betting odds right

3:59

before the match. some reason. Right. And we were

4:01

like, Orton? And we still don't believe

4:03

that. Orton minus a million? We were

4:05

such marks like, no. No way. That's

4:08

not happening. Yeah. And then it happened.

4:10

Someone told someone something. Per's pictured. But,

4:12

uh, I mean, most likely. Probably seems

4:14

like the most likely culprit. Yeah. He

4:16

likes to talk. He likes to open

4:18

his mouth. But yeah, we

4:20

have to review Smackdown. Smackdown.

4:23

Get into breaking news, rumors,

4:25

trivia, fan questions, all that good

4:27

stuff. But first, we have to

4:29

thank a brand new patron. So

4:32

thank you to Mike Cessler.

4:34

Thank you so much, Mike. Creeping

4:36

every show ever so close. Yes.

4:38

To shave in that head. Hey.

4:40

It could be shaved. That's why

4:42

I'm wearing this beanie. Oh!

4:44

Or it's because we're selling so many fucking

4:47

beanies ever since I wore it. Shout

4:49

out to Colleen Usenski for buying a

4:51

logo t-shirt and what's wrong with wrestling

4:53

beanie. Look how good it looks on

4:55

me. Will it look this good on

4:57

you? Colleen. Probably not. What did I

4:59

say? I don't know. I thought I

5:01

said Colleen. Maybe. Anyways, this beanie, it

5:03

might look, it might not look as

5:05

good on you as it does on

5:07

me, but I mean, it could still,

5:09

you can still look pretty good with

5:11

it. He's rocking, he's rocking that beanie.

5:13

Now I gotta wear it, now that

5:15

we're selling it. Yeah, that's fair. So,

5:18

you can get... the t-shirts and the

5:20

beanies and we even have what's wrong

5:22

with wrestling hats. Look at us, we're

5:24

6:01

is starting up very very

6:03

soon. And of course all

6:05

the pay-per-view recaps. We've got

6:07

Saturday Night's Main event coming

6:12

next week like we said.

6:14

You get all the brackets

6:16

and also we there's two episodes

6:18

already of the return of the

6:20

AEW Nexte podcast. And boy is

6:22

it a lot of fun slash

6:24

confusing. There's so many. new wrestlers

6:27

in NxT now. They just put

6:29

all of them on the show.

6:31

New, new, new wrestlers. Yeah, it

6:33

was funny I was saying this

6:35

on the AWNXC podcast that every

6:37

time they have a backstage segment,

6:39

there's a lower thirds to show

6:41

you who's talking. Because I imagine

6:44

most people like who the fuck

6:46

is that. That's just a random... Really?

6:48

There's so many people. because there's like

6:50

a hundred people that are signed to

6:52

their performance center and they're all on

6:54

the show. Wow. Like it's insane. They

6:57

put all of them on the show

6:59

every week. Every week. It's so hard

7:01

to follow. I'm like who the fuck's

7:03

this guy? The whole show is... Who

7:05

are you? We don't even know who

7:07

we are! That's the whole show right

7:09

now. And how long is it? Two hours.

7:12

Yeah. Yeah. It's long. So yeah, go

7:14

to patreon.com/what's wrong with wrestling.

7:16

It's been a blast though,

7:18

making fun of both shows

7:20

because Nxte is still saved

7:22

by the bell. Which show has won?

7:24

We didn't, well, we kind of

7:26

got into that. Nxte, the first

7:28

week, and then, and actually Josh

7:30

and Eric picked N.xte the second

7:33

week as well. I would have

7:35

said a W, but my, both

7:37

show sucked in my opinion, like

7:39

they were both bad. did was

7:41

MJF making fun of Jared one

7:43

of those shows both and that

7:45

wasn't enough to get the win well

7:47

it did for me the second week

7:49

got it that was the only

7:51

reason yeah the only enjoyable thing

7:53

was MJF yeah even if he

7:56

is feuding with a senior citizen

7:58

sure so go to patreon.com/ What's

8:00

wrong with wrestling? Yeah, we'll take all

8:02

the MGF we can get. I

8:04

guess, you know, it's better than

8:06

nothing All right smackdown opens with

8:08

joe tessitore and wade barrett They

8:11

walked from the production room They

8:13

passed tiffani stratton's locker room and

8:15

tessitore is like maybe we can

8:18

go in and see her fucking love whit

8:20

kaiser You remember that I I

8:22

didn't get I didn't see that part It was

8:24

so weird and then they just walked through the

8:26

crowd and they go to their announce table You

8:29

8:31

I don't want to see the announcers. Of course

9:09

ray officially declares the royal

9:11

rumble and reminisces over winning it

9:13

in 2006 and becoming the

9:16

world heavyweight champion at wrestlemania He

9:18

then starts to talk about

9:20

eddie guerrero and the crowd does

9:22

an eddie chant But then

9:24

the music hits and out walks

9:26

the F Winged

9:28

eagle champion kevin

9:31

owens And ko is wearing

9:33

a t -shirt that reads the

9:35

canadian dream son of a security

9:37

systems technician Amazing, that's just amazing.

9:39

He's such a great troll heel.

9:41

He's a good troll owens says

9:43

I respect you ray more than

9:45

anyone in this industry I've

9:47

had an incredible career. I made a

9:49

vented wrestlemania with stone cold steve

9:51

austin I won the tag team titles

9:53

with my then best friend in

9:55

the main event of wrestlemania Now I

9:57

get to stand here with this

9:59

championship this is the championship belt

10:01

belt belt belt that I saw

10:04

all of my idols win. This

10:06

is the championship belt that I

10:08

dreamed of winning and I stand

10:10

here as the true rightful W.

10:12

W. E. Champion. He says one

10:14

thing I've never done is Russell

10:16

Ray Mysterio one on one. So

10:18

I'm rooting for you in the

10:20

Royal Rumble. Promise me that I will

10:23

be the champion you pick for the

10:25

WrestleMania match so I can have my

10:27

dream match against you. And Ray

10:29

says, but you're not the champion.

10:32

Good is the champion. If I

10:34

go on to win the Royal Rumble

10:36

and you win, I will be more

10:38

than glad. He says, I will be

10:41

more than gladly face you at WrestleMania.

10:43

Well, not his first language.

10:45

Is San Diego, away from San

10:47

Diego? He grew up there, right?

10:49

Wasn't he born in? I don't

10:51

know. Anyways, Kevin Owens freaks out

10:54

and he's great. I'm not the

10:56

champion. I am the champion. This

10:58

is my title. I earned it.

11:00

I deserve it. What the hell

11:02

is your problem, huh? Cody Rosas

11:04

got you brainwashed you? What are

11:07

you going on that mask, huh?

11:09

Bleach blonde hair? The seeping through

11:11

your brain? What is this crap?

11:13

Amazing. Oh, so good. He's like,

11:15

I do, yes. So I can't take

11:17

this off. How did you know? Yeah. Ray

11:20

says, you sound so delusional. You

11:22

remind me of my son. Dominic,

11:25

my son. Because I've never

11:27

done with him. Yeah. This

11:29

feud will go on for

11:32

years and years. It already

11:34

has. Every year we're going to

11:37

fight at Wrestlemania. And every year

11:39

I will win. I will never,

11:41

ever put over my son. Right.

11:44

Basically. It's true. So Owens tries

11:46

to hit Ray with the belt,

11:48

but Ray Dux lands some punches

11:51

and goes for the 6-1-9, but

11:53

Owens rolls out of the ring

11:55

and yells, I'm not like Dominic, how dare

11:58

you! Son of a bitch! It's

12:00

good stuff. So good. Backstage. Nick

12:02

all this grants Ray a match with

12:04

Owens for later in the show. And

12:07

then Cody Rhodes walks in and Ray

12:09

tells him I'll take care of Kevin

12:11

Owens tonight and I promise to leave

12:14

something for you at the Royal Rumble.

12:16

Cody thanks Ray and he tells all

12:18

this that he's fully cleared. And then

12:21

all this tells Cody that he needs

12:23

to sign the contract for the match

12:25

with Kevin Owens. But Cody says, I'll

12:27

sign it when Kevin Owen signs

12:30

it. He says, I have a, what is

12:32

it, an addendum? We don't

12:34

even know what it is. Yeah,

12:36

that's true, right? Yeah. We don't

12:38

even know who we are. And

12:41

again, another heel move by Cody.

12:43

I'm not gonna, here, fuck you

12:45

in your addendum. I signed it

12:47

until he signs it. And it's

12:50

just like, wait, you're the champ.

12:52

And what does it say? And what

12:54

the fuck is wrong with you? You're such

12:56

a fucking baby. Why you just read

12:58

it? You're a baby heel bitch. Yeah,

13:01

Cody's like, I need my lawyers to

13:03

look at it. You're a baby face.

13:05

You're not supposed to have lawyers. He's

13:07

like in there here. You think I

13:09

dressed nice here? They dressed me, actually.

13:11

Right. So then later all this tries

13:13

to get Owens to sign it, but

13:16

he says he's not signing until Cody

13:18

signs. I love how. Kevin Owens, he's

13:20

like, what's an addendum? Like, what are

13:22

you talking about? Because again, who uses

13:24

words that, like, why would you use

13:27

that word? Not everyone understands what

13:29

that word means. And why do

13:31

they need them to sign? Yeah.

13:33

You're the bosses. Right. They have

13:35

to do what you say. Yeah. What

13:37

do you think it is? I

13:39

have no idea. Because even later,

13:41

he's like, fine, we're gonna take

13:44

your titles. It's probably means that

13:46

like, like, like, Like he has to

13:48

just accept it or he can't get

13:50

another title shot at the rumble.

13:52

Yeah. So it's a you can't touch

13:55

each other until the rumble or you

13:57

lose your title maybe. Why do we have

13:59

to wait? It'll just be a

14:01

week. Yeah, it'll be one episode of Smack Day.

14:03

Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Next

14:06

up, we've got Naya Jackson,

14:08

Candace Leray versus Naomi, and

14:10

Bianca Belair. Belair's still looking

14:12

for Jade Cargill's real killer.

14:14

Although, you know, it's probably her at

14:16

this point, even though it's going

14:18

to make no sense. Belair threw

14:20

Candace out of the ring and

14:22

on to Naya. Naomi hit Nye

14:25

with the split-legged moon salt, but

14:27

Candace broke up the pin. Then

14:29

Belair went for her handstand in

14:31

the moon salt, but Candace dropped,

14:33

kicked her while she was doing

14:35

the handstand. That was a nice

14:38

little spot. And then Belair later

14:40

hit the moon salt on Candace,

14:42

went for the pin. Nye tried

14:44

to break it up with a

14:46

leg drop, but Belair moved, and

14:48

Naya leg dropped Candace by mistake.

14:51

Uh-oh. This is the butt bomb

14:53

where she just starts. Well, probably,

14:55

but she just picks up Candace

14:57

and they both fall on their

15:00

ass the exact same way, but

15:02

Candace doesn't have Naomi's ass. It's

15:04

very bony. Yeah. And Naomi's like,

15:06

I didn't feel anything. Meanwhile, Candace

15:08

is like, my ass hurts and

15:11

that's it. Kind of like the

15:13

bunny stump. from Doomsday. Right, that's

15:15

right. Non-sensical bullshit. This belongs in

15:17

a comedy wrestling show. Correct. Not

15:19

a legit, you know, trying to

15:21

be like, this is real. Yes.

15:23

Anyways, Bianca and Naomi will defend

15:25

the tag titles against Lash Legend

15:27

and Jakarta Jackson on NXT. Okay.

15:29

Which is, you know, happening as we speak

15:32

or I guess it happened already. Or no,

15:34

maybe it's, no, I think it's the next

15:36

week, actually. I think it's next week. Yeah,

15:38

yeah. It was funny, we were confused because

15:40

we were watching NxT last week and they

15:43

won a number one contenders match and we

15:45

were like, who's even the NxT tag team

15:47

champs? And Eric was like, there are none.

15:49

So like, they got a shot at the

15:51

women's. Yeah. There's only one tag team champion

15:53

in all three brands, right? Yes, because there

15:55

used to be NxT. And then they just

15:57

got rid of them. They got rid of

15:59

them again. Yeah. Next up we've got

16:01

Jimmy Uso versus Carmelo Hayes. Jimmy

16:04

still comes out to his heel music

16:06

that talks about how he's done with

16:08

family. Yeah. How have they not

16:10

updated this yet? I don't know. It's

16:12

so weird. Melo cut a basic promo

16:14

as he walked to the ring, but

16:17

Jimmy threw him in the ring from

16:19

the apron to start the match. Jimmy

16:21

Suplex mello on the apron and hit

16:23

a suicide dive. Jimmy went for a

16:26

corkscrew moonsault off the top but Mellow

16:28

moved out of the way and hit

16:30

a springboard DDT. Jimmy went for the

16:32

Uso splash but Mellow countered with four

16:35

first 48 he goes for nothing but

16:37

net but Jimmy moved and hit a

16:39

super kick and then soon after that

16:41

Jimmy hit a spear and went to

16:43

the top rope but Jacob fought who

16:45

appeared on the apron and then Tomatanga

16:48

pushed Jimmy off the top rope for

16:50

the DQ. All right, Jimmy beats Carmelo

16:52

Hayes. Yes, he does. I mean, Fatu

16:54

and Tonga beat up Jimmy. Melo tries

16:57

to join in, but Fatu clothes lines

16:59

him. Yeah. It's like, fuck off. We

17:01

don't need your help. Right. Then Solosakoa

17:03

comes out for his first appearance since

17:06

losing the Ulafala to Roman Reins. It's

17:08

been a few weeks. What's gonna happen?

17:10

He acts like he's gonna cut a

17:13

promo, but then he just throws the

17:15

mic down, takes the mic down, takes

17:17

off his red jacket. and

17:20

leaves through the crowd. As Fattu

17:22

and Tonga just stand in the

17:24

ring like, oh. Yeah. What do

17:26

you think this is about? I don't

17:28

know. I hope it's just, I don't

17:30

know. I feel like it would

17:33

be better if Fattu's just the

17:35

new leader of that bloodline. Just

17:37

let solo go away. You served

17:39

your time. Here's your papers. Really,

17:42

where can he go from here

17:44

at this point? Can't feuding with the wide

17:46

six? If they ever show up again. So

17:48

if I two picks up the mic and

17:51

yells, I'm tired of the disrespect, I'm tired

17:53

of the hate, even on my bad day,

17:55

y'all still can't touch me, I give a

17:57

damn if you cheer or boo us. Y'all

18:00

thought I was crazy! I'm

18:02

just getting started! And it

18:04

was like, I mean, that

18:06

sounded pretty crazy. Yeah, it

18:08

was. It was pretty nonsensical,

18:10

but it tracks for his

18:12

character. Yeah, I felt like,

18:14

okay, this is the most

18:16

talk we've ever heard him

18:19

do, and it was fine.

18:21

Other than I love you

18:23

solo, like this is like

18:25

first words, almost. So then

18:27

L.A. Knight runs out. But

18:29

he attacks him from behind

18:31

his music hits, distracts

18:33

them, trying to get

18:36

revenge for last week.

18:38

But it's a two-on-one,

18:41

so they beat him

18:43

up. But then, Braun!

18:45

Stroman walks out.

18:48

He just shows up.

18:50

Among monsters. Even more

18:52

so than Godzilla, even more so

18:54

than Bronson Reed. Like, why did

18:56

they double down on, he's a

18:59

monster among men? That's amazing. Right.

19:01

You're a fucking monster compared to

19:03

men. Yeah. Now he's a monster

19:05

of all monsters. Yeah. And not

19:08

only that, he's the king

19:10

of kings. The friendliest of

19:12

all monsters. Honestly, the friendliest.

19:14

Godzilla wouldn't put up on

19:16

half the shit. And then it's like,

19:18

all right, see you in another month, and

19:20

he's just a good guy, and he sucks.

19:23

He sucks as a good guy. What are

19:25

we doing? Yeah, like a baby, just learned

19:27

how to walk for the first time. Looks

19:29

great, though. Looks great, he's ripped. He's ripped.

19:32

He absolutely is. Tomatanga dive is

19:34

on him, but Braun catches him, throws

19:36

him into the barricade, and then he

19:38

faces off with Fattu, but Tonga pulls

19:40

Fattu, Fattu, out of the ring, So

19:43

we've got Braun versus Fatu for Saturday

19:45

Night's main event. And Fatu is favored

19:47

by infinity, it says. It just shows

19:50

the infinity symbol. Really? That's what Fatu's

19:52

favored by. I got Braun. Yeah. You

19:54

know what? Because I want infinity money.

19:57

Are you trying to give me some

19:59

of my... dollars back. I mean,

20:01

Jacob's not going to lose. I

20:03

mean, this is what Braun does.

20:05

He loses to everyone. Yeah, he's

20:07

big show from like 2010. He's

20:09

the biggest job in the fucking

20:11

company. Yeah, but like he loses

20:14

to Bronson Reed. Yeah, he loses

20:16

to everyone. You think Jacob

20:18

beats him clean? He beats him.

20:20

Yeah, clean or not? Tom, Tom, Tom,

20:22

Tom. Yeah, he probably gets involved.

20:24

Sure. Yeah, what are those like,

20:27

like, not super dirty like. He just

20:29

happens to hit Tom Atanga. Yeah.

20:31

Because he's around. Right. And when

20:33

he runs towards Jacob,

20:36

he gets fucked. It's almost

20:38

like Vince decided to rehire

20:40

Braun and Triple H was like,

20:42

well, I mean, all right, I guess

20:44

we'll use you and you'll just

20:46

job to everyone. Can I see your

20:49

contract? Ten years! Yeah, come

20:51

on. Yes, because it's a Saudi contract.

20:53

We signed him. We pay you and

20:55

we pay him. We pay you just

20:58

to employ him! And Debbie B is

21:00

the AAA chair is like, we're okay

21:02

with that. Yeah, we'll take that. We

21:04

just need him to win one battle

21:06

royal a year. Can you do that

21:08

for us? One battle royal every odd

21:10

year. Listen to Triple H, we have

21:12

the Royal Rumble next year, and we

21:14

want Braun to win, and Triple H

21:16

is like, you better start giving us

21:18

billions instead of billions. That's worth one

21:21

billion dollars to us. Okay, hold on,

21:23

let me go to my, let me

21:25

get my checkbook. All down, one second.

21:27

I'm just kidding. I have it

21:29

right here. This is the most

21:31

rare diamond on earth. It's value,

21:33

one billion dollars. You can have

21:35

this or you can have our

21:37

billion dollar bill. Here you go,

21:39

there it is. One billion dollar

21:41

bill. It's got your face on it.

21:44

One of whom else is faced with

21:46

me on the billion dollar bill. Don't

21:48

lose it. That would be a billion

21:50

dollar loss. That just reminded me. I

21:52

was just watching the Simpsons episode because

21:55

there's an episode where Mr. Burns steals

21:57

a trillion dollar bill from the US

21:59

government. Great one. Anyways, next

22:01

up we've got the Motor City

22:04

Machine Guns versus Los Garza. Honestly,

22:06

there's a lot of bad matches

22:08

this week. Yeah. On both shows.

22:11

Right. This was pretty shitty. Come

22:13

on. Yeah. The guns win with

22:15

skull and bones, despite pretty shitty

22:18

trying to cost them the win.

22:20

We're not going to waste our

22:22

time with this. Are they good or

22:25

bad? Pretty good or bad? Pretty

22:27

shitty? Yeah. They're trying to

22:29

fuck up the guns. The

22:31

low scars is Captain Escobar,

22:33

who shaved, I guess he

22:35

shaved. Did he shave? It was

22:38

very light, even like this.

22:40

He's like, pretty shitty,

22:42

might interfere again. Yeah. And

22:44

I won't be there to help

22:46

you, because I'm too big to

22:49

even be part of this. And

22:51

I'm no one. I'm nobody.

22:53

Who am I? Who am I? Yeah, so

22:55

Backstage Champion yells at Pretty Shitty

22:57

for dropping the ball and calls

22:59

him a joke. Gargano plays good

23:01

cop. He's like, oh, it's just

23:03

tough love. We believe in you

23:05

guys, come on, you know, it's

23:08

cool. And then DIY leaves and

23:10

Apollo Cruz walks up and calls

23:12

pretty shitty a couple of unitards.

23:14

Yeah. But then Gargano attacks and

23:16

lays out Cruz and says, keep

23:18

our name out your mouth. Yeah, it's

23:21

pot calling the kettle black there.

23:23

Yeah, so I guess that's gonna

23:25

be a match next week Gargano

23:27

and Cruz think yeah, he's got

23:29

to do so well, that's that

23:32

man. That's true Cruz just gets

23:34

his ass kicked all the time

23:36

He never fights anyone and we're

23:38

done. Yeah moving on moving on

23:41

next up. We've got B Fab

23:43

versus Piper Niven Wow how many

23:45

one-on-one matches? Trivy in the middle

23:47

of the show as B Fab

23:49

had Like ever like zero is

23:52

it zero? This is your first

23:54

singles match. I believe it

23:56

this match happened because of

23:59

backstage confrontation where Piper is

24:01

now acting like a secret

24:03

service agent for Chelsea Green.

24:05

Yeah. Because she's the US

24:07

champion, which means she's the

24:09

president of the United States

24:11

now. That's what that means.

24:13

And if BFAB can beat her

24:16

minion. Yeah. That means nothing.

24:18

Right, so and she can't during

24:20

the match Chelsea Green held up

24:22

her title So B-Fab took offense

24:24

and closed-lined her off the apron

24:26

And then Piper hit B-Fab with

24:28

a centon as she slid back

24:30

in the ring and then hit

24:32

the Piper driver for the win

24:34

God I can't wait until Smackdown

24:36

is two hours again. This will

24:38

be God B-Fab will not wrestle

24:40

again. They're like all right.

24:42

We need to do a match

24:45

dig to the bottom. The very

24:47

bottom. Yeah, who is it It's

24:49

B Fab, throw it back in,

24:51

throw it back in. No, no,

24:53

we already grabbed it, we already

24:55

grabbed it. You promised. Oh my

24:58

God. No, she's about to be

25:00

released anyway, so it's fine. Yeah.

25:02

We're not even gonna say

25:04

that she's associated with

25:07

the three prophets anymore.

25:09

We're not even gonna mention

25:11

that. We're not even gonna

25:13

mention that. Release Fab. Flop

25:16

dollar. What the fuck was

25:18

their name? With Swerve. I

25:20

rich, originally would swerve. And

25:22

then they brought them back.

25:24

And there was like, without

25:27

Swerve? Without the only one

25:29

with talent? Super Swerve. So

25:31

you brought them all back

25:33

without the one with talent?

25:35

Without their leader. Brilliant.

25:38

Nothing the wrappers the

25:40

wrappers that is what it

25:42

was. Yeah, who cares? Well,

25:44

that's Eric next week. It's

25:47

Eric's gonna be back next

25:49

week. Yeah I'm like

25:51

literally looking at it and

25:53

it's just not here. It's

25:56

still yeah, even Wikipedia is

25:58

like the job It was

26:00

shit row. Shit row. Shit

26:02

row. Anyways, Chelsea and Piper

26:04

beat up BFAB after the

26:06

match, but Meachin runs out

26:08

and hits Piper with her

26:10

kendo stick. I guess that's

26:12

just her thing now. Triple

26:14

H has the sledgehammer. Meachin

26:16

has a kendo stick. Sure.

26:18

But then Piper grabs it,

26:20

but Meechin kicks it interface

26:22

while Chelsea retreats. I smell

26:24

a shitty tag team match.

26:27

Oh, you don't just smell

26:29

it. Yeah, you could taste

26:31

it. Smells like fish. Next

26:33

up, we've got Kevin

26:35

Owens versus Ray Mysterio

26:37

with W-W-E non-hall of

26:39

Famer, but still a legend,

26:41

Victoria, ringside. Uh, yeah. Yeah.

26:44

Yeah, I always liked

26:46

her. She recently, she revealed

26:48

like last year that she

26:50

got a legends deal. Yeah.

26:52

Although they call it something

26:54

else now, like a member

26:57

berries deal or some shit. I

27:01

think it was like, I always like

27:03

that song and it wasn't her

27:05

song, it was like a real

27:08

song, but they let her use

27:10

it. Yeah, sounds like evidence or

27:12

something. Yeah, sure. Or ripoff. So

27:14

she's trying to be like Randy

27:16

Orton, she'd come out, she's like,

27:18

ah, the voice. I have voices

27:21

in my head, Randy Orton is

27:23

doing this and steadies. So Owens

27:25

came out. wearing a Ray Mysterio

27:27

Hall of Fame shirt for the

27:29

match. Amazing. The crowd was chanting

27:31

Colero at Owens, which means asshole

27:33

in Spanish. Ray jumped off the

27:36

apron to give Owens a hurricane

27:38

run into the barricade and then

27:40

slid out of the ring to

27:42

splash on him. I always liked

27:44

that move of Ray's. And then

27:46

back in the ring, Kayo threw

27:48

Ray down and then said, six,

27:51

one, nine, second. So that was

27:53

nice. Yep. Ray had taint to face

27:55

and went for the 6-1-9, but

27:57

Owens countered with a super kick.

28:00

Kayo went for the pop-up power

28:02

bomb, but Ray countered with a

28:04

DDT and went for a 619

28:06

pin, or I'm sorry, he counted

28:08

with a DDT and then he

28:11

gave Owens like a 69 pin.

28:13

He's 69 to him to pin

28:15

him. Nice. Thankfully Kevin Owens kicked

28:17

out. He mocked Eddie Guerrero

28:19

and hit a frog splash. Ray

28:22

hit a sunset flip power bomb

28:24

and then code red, but Owens

28:26

kicked out. Owen's hit a stunner,

28:28

that Ray sold the fuck out

28:30

of, but a kickout. Owens went

28:33

for a swantan bomb, but Ray

28:35

got his knees up, he hit

28:37

the 6-1-9, went to the top

28:39

rope to go for the frog

28:41

splash, but Owen stumbled into the

28:44

ref, pushing him into the ropes

28:46

and making Ray fall, and then

28:48

he hits the pop-up power bomb

28:50

is his finisher, like he hit

28:52

the stunner and could not

28:54

finish Ray. That's right. So, yeah.

28:56

Yeah, I think it's a bad guy thing back to

28:58

the stunner when he's a good guy. Yeah, I guess.

29:00

I mean, look, the stunner is the stunner, but

29:03

like, it fits stone cold more. Yeah,

29:05

he's still it. He already had a

29:07

great power bomb is amazing. You could

29:09

do it to anybody, anyone that could

29:11

jump. Exactly. You can do it to

29:13

the fucking big show or brawn if

29:16

you had to. Right. After the match,

29:18

Owens shakes raise hands, he acts like

29:20

he's all grateful, but then he kicks

29:22

him and sets up for the package

29:24

pile driver, but Cody Rhodes runs out

29:27

and beats on Owens. Officials pull Cody

29:29

off and Owens escapes through the crowd.

29:31

What is the only outfit that's

29:33

ducier and more heelish than

29:35

a three-piece suit? Attracts suit. Here

29:38

he comes. I have a track suit in

29:40

the car. I had my own clothing line.

29:42

Like this is me. It's I have my

29:44

own team of peep. I have my own

29:47

sweatshop in China. What an asshole. And

29:49

all they do is make this for

29:51

me. Yeah, only for me. It's his

29:53

own line for him. Yes. So backstage,

29:55

all this tells Cody that him and

29:58

Kayo will have a contract signing. at

30:00

Saturday night's main event and all

30:02

this is like and since

30:04

I'm such a shitty GM that

30:06

can't get you guys to sign

30:09

this since we're in San

30:11

Antonio the moderator will be

30:13

the heartbreak kid Sean Michael's

30:15

at least have to watch

30:17

one segment right at least

30:19

there will be something my

30:22

boy doesn't really make any

30:24

sense other than they're in

30:26

San Antonio he's got a

30:28

moderator Oh, I

30:30

can't see it. Can

30:32

you read? And just

30:34

sign where it says

30:36

Cody. They put the

30:38

contract on two pieces of

30:41

paper so I can read

30:43

it. Half the words run

30:45

this sheet. The other half

30:48

are there, right? Welcome

30:50

to the contract

30:53

signing on Saturday

30:55

night's main event. He's

30:57

like, oh. has come true.

30:59

What are you talking about

31:01

Sean? Can we just get

31:03

to the thing? I know

31:05

something about... You know he's

31:07

gonna... I know something about

31:09

ladder masters. Man, man, man, man.

31:12

San Antonio! I know

31:14

something. Yeah. About me to venting.

31:16

That's when I beat a razor

31:19

remote. Rest in peace. And then

31:21

in San Antonio, real rum, rum

31:23

boy, I beat Psycho Sit. RIP.

31:26

Everyone I found is

31:28

dead. Oh my god, it's true.

31:30

Oh, yeah, I'm like Tom Agson,

31:33

Green Mile. Me and Hogan,

31:35

we'll live forever. Me,

31:37

Hogan, and Blair. Maybe

31:39

not Blair. He's... Tic-tac,

31:41

he's still around. Drink

31:43

it too much more

31:46

energy, if you know

31:48

what I mean. I'm

31:50

sorry, I no longer love

31:52

him. Absolutely. Absolutely.

31:54

Next up! I told

31:57

you they would fucking spoil

31:59

it. Video package for Charlotte Flair.

32:02

Yeah, it was on her insta.

32:04

She kind of teased it on

32:06

her insta, but yeah. Makes sense,

32:08

I guess, since she's constantly, you

32:11

know, been posting that she's coming

32:13

back, but. But that's fine. You

32:15

just don't do it on the show.

32:17

She's on a boat. She's back as

32:19

soon as she docks, but she's been

32:21

on a boat for a year. Yeah. So,

32:23

and like, she's in a bikini, but

32:25

they shot her from very far away.

32:27

It was all like blurred. It was

32:29

all like fucking my space angles. We

32:31

haven't seen our things like look look

32:33

at that thigh good Well, yeah, I

32:35

mean if we're just looking at a

32:37

thigh. Yeah, it's been a long time.

32:39

It's been a year over a year. Yeah So

32:42

She'll be back for the rumble

32:44

next up. We've got Bailey versus

32:46

Tiffany Stratton for the W. E

32:49

women's championship with Roxanne Perez watching

32:51

from the front row because her

32:53

and Bailey had a brawl on NxT

32:56

last week This match was so long,

32:58

they gave way too much time for

33:00

this match. It went on forever. There

33:02

were a few botches. Stratton had a

33:04

mistake where Bailey was supposed to close

33:06

line her out of the ring, but

33:08

Stratton jumped early. So she sent herself

33:10

out of the ring. And then Bailey

33:12

went for a suicide dive, but Stratton

33:14

countered with a forearm and then trapped

33:16

Bailey under the ring apron and then

33:18

just ran into her with her ass. That

33:21

was a little awkward. Bailey gave Stratton

33:23

of Bailey to belly on the

33:25

floor. Bailey hit a superplex off

33:27

the middle rope, Stratton hit a

33:29

beautiful swanton off the top, followed

33:31

by a power bomb, but Bailey

33:33

kicked out. Outside the ring, Bailey

33:35

got face to face with Roxanne

33:37

Perez, and they had some words. Back

33:40

in the ring, Bailey hit the

33:42

elbow drop, but Stratton kicked out,

33:44

and then Stratton went for prettiest

33:46

moon salt, but Bailey knocked her

33:48

down, Bailey put Stratton on her

33:51

shoulders, and then did an awkward

33:53

spin, and then just dropped her. Yeah. I

33:55

don't know what that was supposed to mean.

33:57

That can't be what that was supposed to

33:59

be. That's what ants do to their

34:02

nieces. Yeah, Bailey. I call that

34:04

the aunt Bailey. It was very

34:06

odd. And then Bailey went for

34:08

the rose plant, but Stratton countered

34:10

with her cartwheel Alabama slam and

34:12

then one with the prettiest moonsaw

34:14

for the win. Alabama slam. She

34:16

won clean. She won clean. She

34:18

won't, everyone thought Perez was going

34:20

to be there to cost her. I

34:22

know, clean, clean. Yeah. You're like, okay?

34:24

They're putting Stratton over a little

34:26

bit. Yeah. Legit beaten Bailey your

34:29

first title defense, but yeah it

34:31

was a little too long and I mean

34:33

it's hot It's it's hard to top

34:35

like the Owens and Ray match and

34:37

then with the Cody angle all that

34:39

It's like I get it's a title

34:41

match But Owens and Cody is still

34:43

the main event of the show. That's

34:46

why I thought Owens and Ray would

34:48

be at the end, but nope. Yeah,

35:48

Night Raw opens with Nia Jack's

35:50

attacking Ria Ripley backstage. It's like,

35:52

you know, look who's here, here,

35:54

oh, there's Ripley. She's winking at

35:56

the camera, but Nia blindsides her

35:58

and lays her out. Yeah. slammed or

36:00

head against the wall like 12

36:02

times. Right. Also, Wade Barrett filled

36:05

in for Pat McAfee this week.

36:07

He wasn't able to do it.

36:09

So it's Barrett and Cole. Something

36:11

way more important. Oh, he was

36:14

at the college football championship,

36:16

huh? Yeah. Right. So then Jayuso comes

36:18

out from the crowd and Michael

36:20

Cole dances and yeets with the

36:23

rest of them. At least, what's

36:25

his face made fun of him.

36:27

Right. Like look at this idiot.

36:29

Yeah. You know how long his entrance

36:31

was? From the start to finish,

36:34

five minutes of eating. It's a

36:36

lot of eating. Five minutes of

36:38

eating. The only person who can

36:41

actually do that besides him

36:43

is you. What? Five straight minutes

36:45

of eating? That's true. Yeah. You're

36:47

the only one. You and Jay.

36:50

I've Googled. I found nothing. I

36:52

was like, where is... I'm like

36:54

Samuel Jackson and... in an unbreakable,

36:56

I'm looking for my doppelganger, I

36:58

guess. Well, you're the guy that

37:00

just can't come, I guess. And

37:03

then you found it, who's been,

37:05

who was coming to raw for

37:07

six months and never came. Oh, right,

37:09

Vier. Vier. So he's your, I thought

37:11

it was Josh for so long because

37:14

he didn't get laid for like eight

37:16

years. That's true. But now he's coming.

37:18

But now he's coming. But yeah, this

37:20

is like the back when like

37:22

during the COVID shows when Roman

37:24

rains. Like Smackdown would start, Roman

37:26

Reigns would come out for 10

37:28

minutes and then they would go

37:31

to commercial. Right. And it was

37:33

like, holy shit. So anyways, Gunthe interrupts,

37:35

he says, I might as well be

37:37

facing Jimmy Uso, because what's the difference?

37:39

Chase, I mean, I mean, it's kind of

37:41

true. Yeah. Yeah. Jay says you're gonna put

37:44

respect on my name, because only one

37:46

of us made amended Russell Mania, and

37:48

it ain't you. I mean, night one.

37:50

Yeah, so Gunther cheap shots Jay, but

37:52

Jay fights back and lands his super

37:55

kick and Gunther rolls out of the

37:57

ring and Jay holds up the World

37:59

Heavyweight Championship. But let's goomt through habit

38:01

back. Yeah. That was nice. You

38:03

know, let Jay hold it. Here you

38:05

go. Because he's not winning it. Excuse

38:07

me, sir. I don't care what Eric

38:10

said. Did you lose this? Jay's not

38:12

winning this belt. Nah. It's not

38:14

happening. Can't happen. Next up,

38:16

we've got Kofi Kinksin versus Ray

38:18

Mysterio doing double. Do you know?

38:21

He's one of the older guys.

38:23

And he's doing... He's doing double.

38:25

We also got JBOon commentary on

38:27

commentary. once they could find

38:29

him a headset. That was awkward.

38:32

It was weird. It was like

38:34

30 seconds of them just. Where's

38:36

the headset? I don't know. Okay,

38:38

there it is. Someone's fired. Yeah.

38:40

Also backstage before the match, the

38:42

new day pays JBL to be

38:44

their acalyte on commentary. Yeah. JBL

38:46

says, I don't blame you for getting

38:48

rid of biggie. Everyone loves him.

38:51

That's what they want to see. They don't

38:53

want to see you guys. And Kofi

38:55

and Woods walk away upset and

38:57

Jay Beale's like, can I keep the

38:59

$2? And then the new day comes

39:02

out, but they yell to turn their

39:04

music off because they don't want

39:06

that shit anymore. There's still

39:08

the new day, but they don't want

39:10

the new day music. It's

39:13

very confusing. It sure is. I don't

39:15

like these guys at all. No. It's almost

39:17

as if they didn't really have

39:19

a plan for this? We're gonna

39:22

turn Xavier Woods heel. Nice. So

39:24

Kofi takes the money out of

39:26

J.B.L.'s pocket. He's like, give you

39:28

that money back. And then

39:30

Woods tries to start a

39:32

new day rocks, Chan, but

39:34

the fans chant new. Day

39:36

sucks. Remember? Remember? The original.

39:38

Remember? Ten years ago? The

39:40

original. We're doing it again.

39:42

Yeah. We're doing it again. We're

39:45

just gonna run it back and

39:47

copy everything. Ten years ago. I

39:49

was noticing that. JBO was always

39:51

great on commentary. Yeah, outside the

39:53

ring Kofi went for a power

39:55

bomb, but they had a mute

39:57

miscue and he accidentally dropped rate

39:59

on his back. So they did

40:01

it again and Ray countered with a

40:03

hurricane Rana. That's that's how it

40:05

was supposed to go originally. Kofi

40:07

went for trouble in paradise, but

40:09

Ray countered with another hurricane Rana.

40:11

He goes with a 619, but

40:14

Woods trips him. So the ref

40:16

ejects him and Ray knocks Woods

40:18

off the apron. Ray then hit

40:20

Kofi with the 619 and went

40:22

for the splash, but Kofi got

40:24

his knees up and then Kofi

40:26

went for SOS. But Ray countered

40:28

and one with... Uh-huh. Roll up. So

40:30

this heel cofi can't win? No.

40:32

Or heel, Xavier Woods. Why? They

40:35

turn them heel. Because as baby

40:37

faces, they were never winning matches.

40:40

Got it. So they turned heel.

40:42

And then? And now they never

40:44

win matches. Uh-oh. Backfire. What the

40:47

fuck is happening? Ray mysterious.

40:49

What's the point of this?

40:51

It's just like Chad Gable

40:53

all over again. Well I can't win

40:55

as a baby face, might as well

40:57

create a faction and turn heel so

41:00

they can help me cheat to win.

41:02

Never win. Why have a faction? It's

41:04

kind of surprising that in

41:06

the triple H era, it's baby face

41:08

is winning everything. I know. Crazy.

41:10

And you're not seeing the biggest

41:12

heel. Where are the cool new

41:14

faction? He was like undefeated for

41:17

like three years. Triple H. Yeah.

41:19

Pretty much. He lost a couple

41:21

of times here and there. But

41:23

like he was a part of two of

41:25

the top five factions of all

41:27

time. Right. We haven't seen

41:29

a new one form. I

41:31

mean, the White Six doesn't count.

41:34

Baby faces win every feud

41:36

in WUE right now. Yeah. Every

41:38

feud. That's crazy. Except

41:40

like, you know, Drew McIntyre, Sammy.

41:42

But who cares? Yeah. Even

41:44

Jay beat Drew, right? That main event.

41:47

Someone, yeah. Someone just beat him up.

41:49

Yeah. So Woods ran back out and

41:51

attacked right after the match, but the

41:53

LWO ran out for the save. So

41:56

the new day bailed, but then they

41:58

remembered that those guys suck. So

42:00

they come back out and they

42:02

push Waukein wild into the ring

42:05

post and then run away from

42:07

Cruz del Toro Two guys

42:09

Kofi Kingston former w

42:11

w w champion champion

42:14

and king of the

42:16

ring Xavier Woods run

42:18

away from Cruz del Toro.

42:21

Yeah, that was it Hey, we better

42:23

get away from this guy. Are

42:25

you afraid of a little mice?

42:27

Are you afraid of the horns?

42:29

Yeah, then I grew up. I

42:32

grew up four inches. Backstage, Chad

42:34

Gable tells Kathy Kelly that he

42:36

spoke in a Dominic Myster about

42:38

Lucia Libre, so that he never

42:41

loses to a Lucidore again. And

42:43

then Ivy Nile says she's going

42:45

to win the women's

42:48

intercontinental championship. But Survey

42:50

says? No, no, no, no. No.

42:52

And the Creed Brothers say they're

42:55

going to win the tag title.

42:57

Survey says? No, no, no, no,

42:59

no. All right, thanks for coming,

43:01

American Maid. We'll see you in

43:04

the next city. Yeah. However, Gable

43:06

did say American Maid is going

43:08

to be wrapped in gold,

43:10

and it's going to be glorious.

43:13

Did he? I might have missed

43:15

that. He did say it. Do it

43:17

again? Oh

43:19

my god! So good.

43:21

I hate myself for

43:23

playing it now. I've

43:26

seen clips of him

43:28

in TNA. Awful. Yeah?

43:30

Awful. Were they Beer

43:33

Money or something? Yeah.

43:35

In NxT, he was so fucking

43:37

good. So fuck. He might be

43:39

like one of my top... Two

43:42

or three favorite guys ever in

43:44

an XT. To be wait, yeah.

43:46

And like Adam Cole is in

43:48

an XT. Johnny Gargano is in

43:51

XT. Champa. Like he's up there

43:53

with those guys in an XT.

43:55

Top five biggest wasted talent of

43:57

all time. Yeah. Top fights. The guy was

43:59

a. He had the look. He had

44:01

the fucking entrance. This is one of

44:04

the best entrances ever. Yeah. Why? Why

44:06

did you do this? Rachel! How he

44:08

won the title in the next T

44:10

was amazing. It was so much bigger

44:13

back then. The NxT title meant

44:15

something. I know. Those matches meant

44:17

something. It's so perfect. It's knocking

44:20

more like broke his leg. And

44:22

then we're just ditty-tied him. It was

44:24

great. They're like, all right, we

44:26

got a check on him. He's

44:28

like, fuck this, we're in a

44:30

match. Come here. Yeah, come here.

44:32

Right. Then he gave him a

44:34

fatality. He saw that shit in

44:37

person. So good. Yeah, it was

44:39

awesome. His entrance was amazing. Fuck.

44:41

Does he, does he do anything?

44:43

No. Does he lead the affection?

44:45

He said he's not ruling out

44:47

like a one-off. So maybe like

44:49

a rumble appearance, but. Yeah.

44:51

No, like he said he had the surgery

44:54

and he said his neck feels good

44:56

and all, but like he had like

44:58

well the surgery had multiple

45:00

fusions Yeah, you know he says like

45:02

no it feels good. I'm I'm obviously

45:04

retired now But he said he wouldn't

45:07

rule out like a one-off thing. So

45:09

because like he probably can't go

45:11

out there every night. Yeah, I'm guessing,

45:13

but yeah, well He's up there too. I

45:16

mean he's up there an age. Yeah, sure 40

45:18

48 48 So, yeah. Next up

45:20

we've got an in-ring promo from

45:22

Sammy Zane. He announces that he's

45:24

going to be in the Royal

45:27

Rumble and the only thing that

45:29

separates him from the upper echelon

45:31

to like Seth Rollins, Drew McIntire,

45:33

and C.M. Punk is that they've

45:36

had a world championship. He says

45:38

I don't need a world championship,

45:40

but I want it. 14-year-old me

45:43

wants it. He's still with me.

45:45

He wants it, so I'm going to

45:47

take it. It's amazing that like triple H

45:49

lets him cut these he's been doing it

45:51

for years now I am going to win

45:53

the world heavyweight He's been saying it forever. I

45:55

think they give it to him. I really do

45:57

I know we talked about this few weeks ago

45:59

he gets the world heavyweight title just

46:02

at some random point sure like in

46:04

the middle of the year when that's

46:06

when they give it to like fan

46:08

favorites that aren't sure you know like

46:10

a summer slam match yeah I mean I

46:12

would hope so I think so they have two

46:15

main titles he's good can't keep it

46:17

forever he's too good did not you

46:19

know never have it he's again he's

46:21

another one that's like McFoli where

46:23

it's just like if Gunta gets

46:25

out of mania with that title.

46:27

I almost think Sammy's the gotta

46:29

take it off of him. Like

46:31

he's his kryptonite. He'd be in. He

46:33

took the icy title from him.

46:35

Maybe. Yeah, I don't know. Right. So anyways,

46:38

the music kits and Outwalk

46:40

Sammy's best friend, the winged

46:42

eagle champion Kevin Owens. He

46:44

is the winged eagle champion.

46:46

He absolutely is. Sammy thinks Kevin's

46:48

there to attack him for team

46:50

with Roman reins, but. Owen says it's

46:53

not like when Cody team with Roman

46:55

you and Roman out of lot have

46:57

a lot of history just like you

46:59

and I have a lot of history

47:01

Roman did a lot of horrible things

47:03

to you that you chose to forgive

47:05

and I also did a lot of

47:07

horrible things to you that you chose

47:09

to forgive because you're a good guy

47:12

you're my best friend and that's why

47:14

I'm here to tell you that you

47:16

can and will win the royal rumble.

47:18

You know why? Because you deserve to

47:20

win the Royal Rumble and win the

47:22

WWE Championship.

47:24

We made-evented

47:27

Wrestlemania together,

47:29

but one

47:31

thing we haven't

47:34

done is main

47:37

event, Wrestlemania one-on-one

47:40

for the WWE

47:42

Championship. I'm watching

47:44

this and I'm fucking just coming

47:47

and jerking and coming and

47:49

I'm just like don't tease us

47:51

with this. You can't? Because it's

47:54

clearly this, not happening. And then

47:56

not do it. It's not happening.

47:58

Can't. Yeah. Hey look. I mean a heel

48:01

Kevin Owens taking this title off of

48:03

Cody. Yeah, sure. I know. I know

48:05

it's not gonna happen. Right. But that

48:07

would be amazing. Yeah. Oh and still Sammy.

48:09

Sammy beats Owens. There's his. Yeah, I

48:12

know. You could set all this up.

48:14

You could put Cody in any other

48:16

feud and it'll be fine. Yeah. Beach

48:18

Unsina, who cares? Right. Right. We'd rather

48:21

see this. Not rock Cody. Not rock

48:23

Roman. Not Cody Roman three. None of

48:25

that shit. No. Rather see this. Yeah.

48:27

Oh and sell Sammy, we can do

48:29

that. As long as I walk out

48:32

of the Royal Rumble as the W.E.

48:34

champion. You're gonna win the Royal Rumble

48:36

because I got your back. And I know

48:38

I'm gonna walk out of the Royal

48:40

Rumble as W.E. Champion. Because just like

48:43

you had Romans back, you've got my

48:45

back. as my brother if I need

48:47

you I know you'll be there dude

48:49

I mean that would be amazing be

48:51

the most amazing he walks out he's

48:53

like fuck you know it's Sammy's always

48:55

torn yeah that's what's so great about

48:57

Sam right he's like I'm a good guy

49:00

but everyone else gets what they want yeah

49:02

I never get what I want right

49:04

I hope this fuck win that title

49:06

I can help Kevin win it because he's

49:08

gonna give me a shot at it I'll put

49:10

you know I mean it's like fuck I know

49:12

I know It makes too much sense. And

49:14

they're not gonna do it. Nope.

49:16

They can't do it. They can't

49:18

do it. They can't do it

49:21

because of Cody Rhodes. God damn

49:23

it. Did he have to leave AW?

49:25

Right. Fuck. He's not even, no one

49:27

even cares. No. Oh, it would be so

49:29

amazing if they helped each other

49:32

win. God. Kevin Owens's stunning

49:34

fucks left and right in the

49:36

royal rumble. He's not even in

49:38

it. Yeah. To try to help

49:41

Sammy Sammy. Right. punk, Roman Reigns,

49:43

Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins. Like you could

49:45

have, you could have. You know, none

49:47

of them win, Sammy's the guy? Right.

49:49

Like you'd have to do the rumble

49:52

first, so that Owens helps Sammy win,

49:54

and then he's like, just remember.

49:56

And Sam he's like, fuck. And then, you

49:58

know, Sammy comes out. helps him win

50:01

and then like the next night

50:03

on rock Kevin's like congratulations I win

50:05

the rumble but you know what I take

50:07

back what I said we don't need to

50:09

fight each other you go fight Gunther right

50:11

we're best friends and then Sammy's like no

50:14

this was our dream like you this was

50:16

what we wanted and then Kevin Owens betrays

50:18

him and Sammy's a face again It would

50:20

be great. Sammy's a face again.

50:22

Well, he helps a five minutes

50:24

of being. Cody, then that's a

50:27

heel turn. They'll cheer the fuck

50:29

out of it. Yeah, of course.

50:31

Oh my God, that would be,

50:33

like I'm just thinking of different

50:35

scenarios, that would be

50:38

incredible. Yep. Well, it's not

50:40

gonna happen, but they have the

50:42

ultimate fight where Sammy finally,

50:45

goes over. Yep. And wins a main

50:47

title. Kevin would do that all day for

50:49

him. Of course. I think this is just Owens

50:51

trying to speak it into existence. Hey, I

50:53

get it. Because what's likely going to

50:55

be? Maybe they're just going to fight

50:57

again at WrestleMania one-on-one for nothing. Fuck

50:59

off. That could be what it is.

51:02

Probably. Probably. You know? Yeah, but... Because

51:04

it's always quality and if Triple H

51:06

is like, like, well, it's all we got for you

51:08

guys. How would you guys like to open night too?

51:10

Like, like, like, like to open night too, like, like,

51:12

like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,

51:14

like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,

51:16

like, like, like, like, They're like, we

51:19

can't. No, I'll find each other! Yeah,

51:21

right? It's like, please God, no!

51:23

Yeah, well, open night, too! But

51:25

that's all, anyone's gonna remember!

51:27

Backstage, Shamus Hipes's intercontinental championship

51:30

match with Braun Breaker for

51:32

Saturday Night's main event, but

51:34

Braun walks up and says,

51:37

I'm gonna beat you and

51:39

break you like an old

51:41

man. So do yourself a

51:44

favor and retire and retire.

51:47

Another match I don't want to

51:49

see for the 10 times. We're

51:52

still doing this. Yeah, I guess

51:54

there's a chance famous wins. Blah.

51:56

I know but there's a chance. Yeah.

52:00

How do they not? They want

52:02

to just fast-track Braun Breaker

52:04

and win that rumble. That

52:06

would be a shock. But who does he

52:08

beat? Gunther? Sure. Yeah, or you get

52:11

the belt off Gunther and put

52:13

it on someone, I don't know.

52:15

Anyone. But yeah. And Breaker

52:17

destroys it. Right. Could happen.

52:19

He's winning the rumble, if

52:22

not this year. I guess.

52:24

He's winning next year's rumble.

52:26

Breakers gotta be the favorite

52:28

for next year's rumble. Yeah,

52:30

right. In Saudi Arabia, who cares?

52:32

In Saudi. That's true. Anything

52:34

can happen in Saudi mania,

52:37

rumble. Saudi rumble mania? Anything.

52:39

We buy winners. Exactly. Next

52:41

up, we've got Bailey versus

52:43

Niger with Roxanne Perez once

52:46

again in the front row.

52:48

Geez. Backstage before the match,

52:50

Bailey announces that she's been...

52:52

transfer window to raw. That's right.

52:54

Officially transferred to raw. And

52:56

she also declares for the

52:58

Royal Rumble. She reminds everyone

53:01

that she won the last one. And, which

53:03

is good because everyone forgot to

53:05

be honest. Yeah. Bailey hit Nye

53:07

with a suicide dive and then

53:09

got into it with Perez again.

53:11

Roxanne tried to slap Bailey, but

53:13

Bailey blocked it and countered with

53:16

a slap of her own. And

53:18

then Perez tried to hop the

53:20

barricade, but security carried her away.

53:22

Because I guess she's just a fan?

53:24

She's just a fan. One security

53:26

guy's like, get over here, you keep

53:28

coming with me. Hey, how you doing?

53:30

No, no. I'm bringing you to see

53:32

him punk. She's like, okay. And

53:34

then Naya did one of the

53:37

dumbest things ever. Baley is standing

53:39

in the corner and Naya squishes

53:41

her with her ass. And then

53:43

just did these back elbow strikes

53:45

that didn't even touch Baley. Naya's

53:47

not good when she improvises

53:50

when she improvises And then Naya killed

53:52

Bailey with the hip attack that makes

53:54

Fattu's ass look like a pillow. And

53:56

then Naya went for a leg drop,

53:58

but Bailey rolled, but did... roll quick

54:00

enough and Nia fell on Bailey's arm.

54:02

That could have been very dangerous. You

54:05

should have just played dead arm for

54:07

the rest of the man. Right. And

54:09

then Nia went for a leg drop

54:12

on the apron but Bailey moved. Bailey

54:14

hit a sunset flip bomb to slowly

54:16

send Nia into the ring post. Bailey

54:18

then gave Nia the annihilator. Yeah. But

54:21

Nia kicked out. Naya set up

54:23

for the annihilator but Bailey knocked

54:25

her down. Naya went for a

54:27

Samoan drop off the middle rope

54:29

at Bailey counter with a sunset

54:31

flip bomb. Then finally Naya hit

54:33

a pop-up Samoan drop, a centon,

54:35

and then the shittiest annihilator

54:37

for the win. Like she held up too much

54:40

to where she just fell, didn't

54:42

touch Bailey, and then just slowly

54:44

sat on her for the win.

54:46

After the match, we've got a

54:48

close up on Nia's face as

54:50

we hear, this is my brutality.

54:52

This is my brutality. Ria Ripley

54:54

runs out and attacks Nia and

54:56

they braw for a while as

54:58

officials try to separate them. Ripley

55:00

jumps off the apron to hit

55:02

Nia and some refs with a

55:04

rolling centon. And then Ripley grabs

55:06

the mic and yells, you me,

55:08

Saturday night's main event. And I

55:10

guess Bailey's now the newest, every

55:13

match, Jabber. Yeah. I'm gonna put

55:15

everyone over right she's like the

55:17

miz like everyone's like

55:19

that's yeah she had her moment

55:22

last year yeah by her character

55:24

is pretty boring as a face

55:26

gotta bring back hey I think

55:28

I'm 14 I guess all the

55:31

pedal powers will be back back

55:33

backstage Dominic tells Gable I know

55:35

a guy who can help you

55:37

out and he gives him a piece

55:39

of paper with a name on it

55:41

that can Be one man.

55:43

But that makes no sense. How

55:46

would he help Gable? Why would

55:48

he help Dominic? I don't know. I

55:50

don't know. Maybe it's not him,

55:52

but who else could it be? Ray? Phoenix?

55:55

No. I don't know. He still stuck

55:57

in AW for like another fucking year.

55:59

I don't get it. Someone in the next

56:01

T. Come on through. And Ray's gonna

56:03

help gable fuck over his brother. Uh,

56:06

somewhere from an XT. I don't know. Yeah,

56:08

maybe. Maybe an XT. Who knows? Who cares?

56:10

Then we do some judgment day bullshit. Jamie

56:12

McDonough is like, oh, we got a

56:15

tag title rematch against war raiders next

56:17

week. Ballers injured. So Dominic offers to

56:19

take his place and then live, tells

56:21

Dom, I hope this plan goes better

56:24

than the one you had for my

56:26

match with Rhea. I thought you weren't

56:28

mad. I'm that mad. Even though I

56:31

secretly am, fuck you, you fuck, and

56:33

then she walks away. That's it. Fuck.

56:35

Again, two weeks in a row, where

56:37

she's just in a backstage

56:40

segment for 10 seconds, just

56:42

to be like, I'm here, and I'm

56:44

gone. Thanks. I hate the judgment day,

56:46

I hate all of. Penta tried to

56:48

do his taunt to start the match

56:50

again, but Dunn grabbed his hand again.

56:53

You can't do that here. And then

56:55

Dunn broke Penta's fingers. What a shame.

56:57

He's already out for months. He can't

56:59

do the thing anymore. He's like,

57:02

set up! So he's out for months.

57:04

Then Penta hit the Mexican destroyer

57:06

and dove over the top row

57:08

to Dunn on the floor. Penta

57:10

did seto meado again, but Dunn

57:13

broke his fingers again, again. Rebroke

57:15

broke him. And then Penta broke

57:17

Dunn's arm and then hit the

57:20

Penta driver for the win. Good

57:22

match. Yeah, I mean. Be done. Come

57:24

here, we have something for you.

57:26

You'll lose to the new guy.

57:28

Here's the match. All that. That's

57:30

the match. Yeah. That hurt. Snap

57:32

and bones. Snap. Next up

57:34

we have a video package

57:36

for Logan Paul. He's gonna

57:38

be on raw next week.

57:41

He's coming. Having his debut.

57:43

But they haven't said he's. wrestling

57:45

now I'm sure that's gonna

57:47

be like a big announcement yeah

57:49

he's just gonna drink prime

57:51

I'm sure like he'll have

57:54

a confrontation with someone and

57:56

then they'll be like his

57:58

Netflix in-ring debut next the

58:00

next week yeah he'll announce

58:03

for the rumble because the

58:05

rumble's so fucking star-studded why

58:07

not throw him in it absolutely

58:09

and then this person that he

58:11

fights they'll they'll feud

58:13

in the rumble and it'll cost

58:16

him and whatever right sir yeah

58:18

who's that gonna be I can't

58:20

gotta be a good guy oh yeah for

58:22

sure and this is wrong I

58:24

got nothing got transfer window penta

58:27

Maybe. Next up we've

58:29

got Jackie Redmond interviewing

58:31

C.M. Punk by the

58:33

crowd. Boy is this guy good.

58:35

I can't see John Sina

58:37

throwing me over the top

58:39

rope on February the 1st.

58:41

Do you say Roman Rains?

58:43

Roman Rains needed my help

58:45

to settle family business

58:48

at war games and in the

58:50

Royal Rumble. There are no

58:52

friends. It's every man for

58:55

himself. I put... Drew McIntyre

58:57

in the dirt. Don't ask me

58:59

about Sammy Zane. He's not on

59:02

my level. You put Hulk Hogan

59:04

in the Royal Rumble. I'll throw

59:06

his dusty ass over the top

59:08

row and I'll kill Hocha Media

59:10

once and for all. He would

59:13

finally be the one. I'm

59:15

February the first, 60,000 strong,

59:17

live on peacock in living

59:19

color at Lucas Art Field,

59:22

Indianapolis, Indiana. My

59:24

name is CMpunk. and

59:27

I am settling scores

59:29

and I am cashing

59:31

in debts and I'm

59:33

calling in a favor or

59:35

two if I need to

59:37

and at the end of

59:40

the night 29 other men

59:42

are gone night night and

59:44

one man will get his

59:46

hand race one name

59:48

free syllables see

59:51

This fucking guy as you know, Sammy's graring

59:53

the mic, but no one is on the

59:55

level of the impugn What's everyone trying to

59:57

do in the Monday Night War right now and

59:59

Hokamie Yeah, forever. This guy can finally

1:00:01

do it. He's so smart, because he

1:00:03

knows Hogan just got booed out of

1:00:06

the fucking arena, so he's like, everyone's

1:00:08

hating Hogan right now, better get some,

1:00:10

a good pop on that. He probably

1:00:12

doesn't like Hogan either, to be honest.

1:00:14

How much does he have to clear

1:00:16

with Triple H before he walks out

1:00:19

on that stage? I think he's a

1:00:21

made man at this point. Yeah. Yeah,

1:00:23

creative freedom. Absolutely. We're gonna tell you

1:00:25

who you fight, but everything else is

1:00:27

you. You're gonna control the best promo

1:00:29

guy in wrestling, and it's not

1:00:31

even close. Like, Drew McIntyre's,

1:00:34

okay, you could say it's close,

1:00:36

because Drew's been amazing. Seth's been

1:00:38

really good. Kevin Owen Owen, Sammy.

1:00:40

I mean, he is. But punk is just

1:00:42

a notch higher than all of it right

1:00:44

now. He's better right now, for sure. All

1:00:46

of them. Yeah. So I don't know who's

1:00:48

winning the rumble. But I know who

1:00:51

I'm rooting for. Sammy. Really makes

1:00:53

you, well, Sammy or punk, I

1:00:55

would be completely fine with. Of

1:00:57

course. Because if they do the

1:00:59

case. But that's not happening. It's

1:01:01

not even realistic. You can at

1:01:04

least root for punk, because that

1:01:06

is realistic. You can definitely see

1:01:08

him winning. You can't see Sammy

1:01:10

winning. No. So there's not even

1:01:12

a point rooting for him. I

1:01:14

guess. It's not possible. Okay. You know,

1:01:17

he did that last year too.

1:01:19

It was either him or Cody.

1:01:21

And then he said, I'm not

1:01:23

going to lose the Dusty's kid.

1:01:25

And then Dusty's kid threw him

1:01:28

out. This time, he's saying,

1:01:30

fuck Sam, he's ain't. He's

1:01:32

not on my level. What is

1:01:34

he doing? Is he planting a

1:01:36

seed? I'm not buying it. No, I'm

1:01:39

not buying it. I didn't do

1:01:41

it. I'm not hitting the button.

1:01:43

I didn't do it. I didn't

1:01:45

fucking. See him punk,

1:01:48

right? If you're picking? If

1:01:50

I'm picking? Yeah. Yes. See him

1:01:52

punk. This time next week?

1:01:54

Or Sina. We gotta pick

1:01:57

someone. Or Sammy. Yeah. Maybe

1:01:59

Drew. Dude, Roman Reigns is

1:02:01

in this match. We might get everything

1:02:03

wrong for the scorecards next week. I

1:02:05

have a good, I don't want to

1:02:07

reveal it because we compete. Sure. I

1:02:10

have a good idea of who's in

1:02:12

the men's match out of all the names.

1:02:14

I've seen a lot of the scripts revealed.

1:02:16

You mean like who's left? No, like you

1:02:18

know how like we have to pick who's

1:02:20

going to be in the Royal Rumble

1:02:23

match? Do we? Yeah, we usually like the

1:02:25

bottom of the thing it's like who's

1:02:27

gonna make the appearance. Oh, okay. And

1:02:29

we always have like seen a rock

1:02:31

undertaker right? Well now they're all in

1:02:33

it. They're all in it. They're all

1:02:36

in I just think I don't know

1:02:38

I go I'm forgetting to feel for

1:02:40

like the different guys I'm saying I

1:02:42

know yeah, I'll get them all wrong.

1:02:44

What a great promo. Next up we've

1:02:47

got damage control versus pure fusion energy

1:02:49

because Ross two and a

1:02:51

half hours. Zoe Stark finally

1:02:53

did something cool on the

1:02:55

main roster. Dakota ran the

1:02:57

ropes really fast, but Zoe

1:02:59

hit her with an awesome springboard

1:03:02

drop kick. But then

1:03:04

Michael Cole yelled, she's a

1:03:06

sniper! He sure is. Thanks,

1:03:08

Bailey. And then Leo. They

1:03:10

should feel good for that.

1:03:12

Absolutely. Eo hit Shana with Over

1:03:14

the Moon Salt for the win. Yeah.

1:03:16

Again, the heels, all they do is

1:03:18

lose. All they do is lose, lose,

1:03:21

lose, lose. Everyone but Gunther? That's it,

1:03:23

right? It's only Gunther. But he's

1:03:25

a likable heel. Gunther's, yeah,

1:03:28

it's true. He's like an

1:03:30

honorable heel that doesn't cheat.

1:03:32

That's true. And everyone likes

1:03:34

him. Next up, main event,

1:03:36

we've got Drew McIntire versus

1:03:38

Seth, freaking Rollins, Russell Mania,

1:03:40

rematch, Drew chopped Seth to

1:03:42

start the match, and Seth

1:03:44

did his little laugh. Right

1:03:46

outside the ring Drew gave Seth a

1:03:49

suplex over the announced table Seth

1:03:51

hit a springboard swan ton

1:03:53

bomb but drew kicked out Seth

1:03:55

hit the superplex and rolled through

1:03:58

but drew counter with a mission.

1:04:00

Shinoku driver. Drew went for a claymore,

1:04:02

but Seth moved and went for the

1:04:04

curb stomp, but Drew countered with a

1:04:06

big spinebuster. Seth put Drew in a

1:04:09

cross face, but Drew grabbed the rope.

1:04:11

Drew hit the future shock DDT, but

1:04:13

Seth kicked out. And then in the

1:04:15

end, Drew was starting to dominate, and

1:04:17

he got cocky, and he was just

1:04:19

like bullying Seth with a few short

1:04:22

arm clothes lines. And then he went

1:04:24

for one more, but it was one

1:04:26

too many, because Seth countered and one

1:04:28

with a one. Roll-up. Another roll-up, I'm

1:04:30

okay with it here, Protect Drew

1:04:32

a little bit. Yeah. Because he's

1:04:34

lost a couple of matches recently.

1:04:36

Have we ever really talked about

1:04:39

how good Drew is in the

1:04:41

ring? Like his in-ring storytelling. Yes.

1:04:43

Is up there with everyone's right

1:04:45

now. I mean, yeah. This guy. That's why

1:04:47

him and punk was, I mean, got match

1:04:49

of the year on our award. Why did

1:04:51

he get rid of him? How did he

1:04:53

was never this good? How did he leave?

1:04:56

Grow a fabulous beard. I'm swear

1:04:58

he wasn't taking all the steroids just

1:05:00

look ripped grow more hair. He

1:05:02

was clean shaven before and just he's

1:05:04

just amazing. He was horrible his

1:05:06

first run. Oh three and B wasn't

1:05:09

he part of that? Yeah, oh yeah,

1:05:11

yeah, yeah, like gender and uh,

1:05:13

whatever. Yeah, absolutely. Wow, no he's amazing.

1:05:15

I mean, yeah, the the Hell

1:05:17

in a cell match where he has the

1:05:20

bag and you think it's tax and

1:05:22

you're like Another fucking hell in

1:05:24

the cell match with tax, but then

1:05:26

it's the beads from the bracelet. So

1:05:28

he dumps it on his head, like,

1:05:30

fuck you. Yeah, it was so good. So

1:05:32

Drew attacked Seth after the match, laid

1:05:35

him out with a claymore. Drew puts

1:05:37

Seth's head next to the ring post

1:05:39

and was about to murder him. Like

1:05:41

literally shatter his skull with a claymore.

1:05:43

Like one of those horror movies. Yeah.

1:05:46

But Sammy runs out for the save.

1:05:48

Drew headbutt Sammy and threw him into

1:05:50

the barricade and then Drew went back

1:05:52

after Seth in the ring. Sammy went

1:05:55

for a hulova kick on Drew but

1:05:57

Drew moved and Sammy kicked Seth by

1:05:59

mistake. One

1:06:03

second yeah, don't

1:06:05

okay, don't Just

1:06:07

another kind of

1:06:09

set up storyline of

1:06:12

Sammy With the rumble guys,

1:06:14

you know, you just never

1:06:16

know oops I hit a

1:06:18

guy right I can kind

1:06:20

of turn heel a little

1:06:22

bit and I'd say I

1:06:25

said don't right, so yeah,

1:06:27

I think Sam That's perfect

1:06:29

time. You marked yourself into

1:06:31

a shoot brother? Yeah. I

1:06:33

know. Oh, that's good. So

1:06:35

Sammy tells Seth it was

1:06:37

an accident as the show

1:06:40

goes off the air. It's

1:06:42

most likely going to be like

1:06:44

this is... shit keeps happening

1:06:46

to Seth and finally he's

1:06:48

going to snap and go full

1:06:51

heel. Because he hasn't yet,

1:06:53

but he hasn't yet, but he

1:06:55

heals Seth. He said he's gonna

1:06:57

be, oh no, he's gonna be pissed

1:06:59

off Seth. That would be good. I'm

1:07:02

okay with that. But again, that begs

1:07:04

the question, what do all these

1:07:06

guys do at mania? Too many

1:07:08

heels, definitely not. It is. Yeah.

1:07:10

It's like, if punks winning the

1:07:13

rumble. Yeah. Is he fighting

1:07:15

Goother or is Goother dropping

1:07:17

it right before mania? At

1:07:20

elimination chamber? They already

1:07:22

blew. Seth punk and they're

1:07:24

teasing Gunther Goldberg. Yeah, they

1:07:26

you know, but you can do it

1:07:28

again But you could gotta be they

1:07:30

haven't done punk Drew Seth Yeah,

1:07:32

and that could be for the title

1:07:35

or could not be for the title

1:07:37

doesn't have to be for the

1:07:39

title Kayo and Sammy probably fight

1:07:41

each other Gunther fights Goldberg

1:07:43

for the title for not

1:07:46

for the title, whatever. I

1:07:48

guess who the fuck this Cody Rhodes

1:07:50

fight Sina for the title? Maybe

1:07:52

the story will be so rock Roman.

1:07:55

You're still going rock Roman even

1:07:57

though like they're leaving ever so

1:07:59

far away from that? I don't know,

1:08:01

that's hard. Three months till Mania,

1:08:03

like you had to have Rock

1:08:05

do something on Netflix. It would

1:08:07

have been fucking outstanding. Unless they

1:08:10

go, you know what they treated

1:08:12

that Netflix as? Not even Russell

1:08:14

Mania. That Netflix was like corporate

1:08:16

Super Bowl. Like Rock can't turn

1:08:18

a heel, he's a good guy

1:08:20

in movies. Everyone's watching. You can't

1:08:23

do it there. Right. Did you ever see?

1:08:25

Because I wasn't here the week after.

1:08:27

How many viewers did they claim? 3.5

1:08:29

Oh which was shocking because

1:08:31

I was like I thought for sure

1:08:34

they would have said 50

1:08:36

million people watch raw 3.5

1:08:38

views yeah right live viewers

1:08:40

live yours 3.5 I guess

1:08:43

worldwide because everyone's

1:08:45

asleep in the rest of

1:08:47

the world while raw's on

1:08:49

so everyone has to watch

1:08:51

it there only 3 million

1:08:54

it was it was 3.5 or

1:08:56

3 or 3 or worldwide so

1:08:58

like That's even less than

1:09:00

America is what you're saying

1:09:02

if someone stayed up late.

1:09:05

Right. Broad Netflix debut

1:09:07

ratings. What have they been

1:09:09

getting like to something? So

1:09:11

it went up a little bit?

1:09:13

Yeah, I think yeah, I think it

1:09:15

was 2.6 for the US. You haven't

1:09:18

for last week seeing how far

1:09:20

it's declined since the first

1:09:22

show? I think they said. Oh, okay,

1:09:24

hold on. 4.9 globally. 4.9

1:09:26

million globally. Okay, it was 3.5

1:09:29

this week. That's what I

1:09:31

saw. There's 3.5 this week. Okay,

1:09:33

got it. So yeah, 4.9 globally. Yeah,

1:09:35

yeah, okay. Which is funny. I'm

1:09:38

surprised they're even mentioning

1:09:40

the ratings because they

1:09:42

don't really have to anymore. Now

1:09:44

that they're on. Yeah, but if

1:09:47

it's a good number, you'd want

1:09:49

to talk about it. Yeah, these

1:09:51

aren't great numbers. I thought they'd

1:09:54

be way higher. Right? And you're

1:09:56

drawing three million. It's like,

1:09:58

okay, right? But if you... Netflix

1:10:00

and you're drawing four million

1:10:02

like are you happy you probably are

1:10:05

four million people watched a one

1:10:07

show sounds like a lot yeah for a

1:10:09

streaming service and it's their only

1:10:11

weekly live show yeah so far

1:10:13

you know obviously they've done NFL

1:10:15

games how much did they pay

1:10:17

billions billions for how many years

1:10:19

deal I think it was five or ten

1:10:22

it was five or ten it was it's

1:10:24

a ten year deal I think it was five

1:10:26

or ten it was it was It was

1:10:28

a 10-year deal. So I paid

1:10:30

$100 million a year. Oh yeah.

1:10:32

Maybe $200 million a

1:10:35

year? What did Netflix

1:10:37

pay for? Raw. $5 billion.

1:10:39

Over how long? For 10

1:10:41

years. And so that's half

1:10:43

a billion dollars a year.

1:10:45

$500 million to get four

1:10:48

times 50, 200 million. They

1:10:50

paid a million? No, wait.

1:10:52

They paid 200 million for

1:10:54

200 million watchers. They

1:10:57

played a dollar per watch, a

1:10:59

dollar per view? Two million? No,

1:11:01

five hundred million. Yeah. Now I'm

1:11:04

just doing math on how many

1:11:06

viewers, like, if you did five,

1:11:08

five a week is 250 million,

1:11:10

and so it's costing them

1:11:12

two dollars to get one viewer.

1:11:14

Is that good math for Netflix?

1:11:17

I don't know. That's too much

1:11:19

math for me. That's, I guess

1:11:21

we'll see how, you know, the build for

1:11:24

Wrestle Manias coming. Yep.

1:11:26

where all these guys are gonna be doing, we

1:11:28

don't really know yet, but we have some ideas.

1:11:30

Yeah, that's for sure. But obviously the

1:11:32

Royal Rumble. is what's coming next

1:11:35

1:11:37

like a Ray Mysterio Hall

1:13:13

1:13:15

rising. It's gotta be, yeah, I

1:13:17

have Kevin Owens because of the

1:13:19

winged eagle. Yeah, that too. Of

1:13:22

course. This like, you know. There's

1:13:24

not many really to see it

1:13:33

title. They're taking that windy. What

1:13:35

if the a Dumbent is what

1:13:38

is it called annulment? Anulment? Anulment?

1:13:40

The addendum? What if the addendum is

1:13:42

that the winged eagle is now the

1:13:44

belt? All right, sorry. You fucking much!

1:13:47

Worst acting? Eric's not here. We are

1:13:49

really hitting that on a lot. Who's

1:13:51

that for worst acting? Jay Uso's just

1:13:54

bothering me. I hate when they show

1:13:56

him this fucking much because then it's

1:13:58

like, oh my god. the fuck

1:14:00

up. It's just me ooze

1:14:02

day one ish. Yeah. I

1:14:04

had Michael Cole. He sucks.

1:14:07

Yep. Best acting. I have

1:14:09

to give it to Kevin

1:14:11

Owens this week. He was

1:14:13

on multiple shows and he

1:14:15

was just so fucking good

1:14:17

the whole time. He was

1:14:19

punk had a tiny segment.

1:14:21

Amazing. Yeah. Almost took it

1:14:23

from Kevin. Yeah. For just

1:14:26

two minutes. She's a sniper.

1:14:29

Go with that. If you drop

1:14:31

kick someone, you're a sniper? You're

1:14:33

a sniper? All right. Yeah, best

1:14:35

comment? I know punks at a

1:14:38

lot of great things. Killing Hulkamania!

1:14:40

Killing Hulkamania is mine. That's gotta

1:14:42

be it. Can I give an

1:14:44

honorable mention to JBL? Sure. He's

1:14:47

like, we're not even sure if

1:14:49

it's the same rain or stereo

1:14:51

because of his mask. Like a

1:14:54

cencara thing? I was dying when

1:14:56

he said that's funny. Worst match.

1:14:58

B-Fab part of course. Super Slomo.

1:15:00

I'm gonna double down. I don't

1:15:03

like to double down, but

1:15:05

it was so slow and

1:15:07

shitty. All right. I had

1:15:09

Nia versus Bailey. That's the

1:15:11

other choice. Best match. Seth

1:15:14

drew. Of course. Worst move.

1:15:16

There's so many. There is

1:15:18

so many. I had the

1:15:21

A-Sita later. That's what's important.

1:15:23

Best move. Best move. What

1:15:25

do you think? What was

1:15:27

the best? I'm gonna give it

1:15:30

to Zoe's drop kick. Come on.

1:15:32

It was cool. Get the fuck

1:15:34

out of here. It was really

1:15:37

cool. Eric. It was really cool.

1:15:39

Okay, Josh. There's really nothing

1:15:41

else that stood out though.

1:15:43

Like maybe when Seth and Drew

1:15:46

kind of like went over the

1:15:48

table. That was good. Nothing was

1:15:50

horrible. And that says a lot

1:15:53

because this is five and a

1:15:55

half hours of television. The matches

1:15:57

weren't great. Well, that's a match.

1:15:59

like matches or matches and it's not

1:16:02

like they were but like you know

1:16:04

like the segments but I still went

1:16:06

judgment day yeah even if it was

1:16:09

just two minutes yeah hate

1:16:11

judgment day yeah best moment for best

1:16:13

moment I'm gonna do see him

1:16:15

punk because as a moment it

1:16:18

was so fucking good arbal mention

1:16:20

to announcing who's gonna be the

1:16:22

master of ceremonies for the addendum

1:16:25

I had Owens teasing him

1:16:27

and Sammy Fermania that was great

1:16:29

But again, we all started, we

1:16:31

all, we all were like, I'll start.

1:16:34

Yeah. Slow, I'll start slow.

1:16:36

I don't want to get

1:16:38

too excited. Right. You're excited.

1:16:40

But yeah, that's what it

1:16:42

is. We're just jerking ourselves

1:16:44

off without coming. Yeah. It's

1:16:46

going to be a ruined

1:16:48

bust. But there's a category

1:16:50

for that. You're like, what?

1:16:52

They're not, oh, where, shit,

1:16:54

it's gone. Where did you

1:16:56

go? It's turdling. All

1:17:53

we talked about this on Hollywood

1:17:55

Hogwash, but W.E. Hall of Famer

1:17:58

Bob Euchre passed

1:18:00

away at

1:18:03

9. from

1:18:06

a

1:18:10

long

1:18:13

battle

1:18:20

with

1:18:27

Just the first one. You think

1:18:29

he's big enough? Just like the

1:18:31

Matrix trilogies. Just watch the first

1:18:33

one. You think he's big enough for

1:18:36

the BU on all the uniforms?

1:18:38

Probably. His initials on the

1:18:40

uniforms? Like maybe for a day. Like

1:18:42

for one day. No, they usually do it

1:18:44

for the season. But that's for players,

1:18:46

right? They do like owners. Players, at

1:18:48

the very least. They will do a Bob

1:18:51

Euchar day, I'm sure. Of course. That's

1:18:53

all I've got for breaking

1:18:55

news, so let's get to

1:18:58

rumors. Rumors! Vince McMahon gets

1:19:00

kicked out for sex allegations?

1:19:03

That happened! But then he

1:19:05

returns and takes back the

1:19:08

company? He did that! And

1:19:10

then Vince sells the company

1:19:13

but stays in power? Jesus!

1:19:15

And then Vince dies his

1:19:17

hair black and has a

1:19:20

stupid mustache? reported that New

1:19:22

Orleans is currently the front runner

1:19:24

to host WrestleMania 42 next year.

1:19:26

At least we have a, we

1:19:28

can just scoot on over. At

1:19:30

least we don't have to pay

1:19:32

for a flight, but you know

1:19:35

if it's still gonna be super

1:19:37

expensive. You know what's interesting, they

1:19:39

just announced, well they didn't just

1:19:41

announce, but like new WrestleMania single

1:19:43

day tickets, go on sale. Like

1:19:45

tomorrow? You got a cute. So,

1:19:47

well I just want to, I'm

1:19:50

just, I'm just curious because I'm

1:19:52

not going to WrestleMania this year. Like,

1:19:54

I don't think any of us are.

1:19:56

But I'm just curious to see. Right.

1:19:58

This is for Eric. I just want

1:20:00

to see if the ticket prices

1:20:02

are going to be a little

1:20:04

cheaper. You know, because they haven't

1:20:06

sold single day yet, right? So

1:20:08

it's all been combos? Yeah, I

1:20:11

think so. Yeah, to buy both

1:20:13

shows. Yes, yes, yes, right. And

1:20:15

like, the cheapest one was like

1:20:17

two grand, like it was insane.

1:20:19

Noseble. Remember, Eric was like, so

1:20:21

go and just Benmo me when

1:20:23

you can, $2,000. Yeah, sure, I

1:20:25

got that right here. So yeah,

1:20:27

I'm just curious, like, like. Just

1:20:29

because it's in New Orleans, we could

1:20:31

drive, doesn't mean we're gonna, if it's gonna

1:20:33

be $1,000, or even if it's $500, like,

1:20:36

what's the, you know what I mean? What's

1:20:38

the highest amount? Like, I would say 200

1:20:40

total, I would go to WrestleMania. That's the

1:20:42

most I would spend, 200 for both nights,

1:20:45

not $200 per night, I'm not doing that.

1:20:47

That's insane. It's not even about the money

1:20:49

necessarily like the money necessarily like, like, like,

1:20:51

like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,

1:20:54

like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,

1:20:56

like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,

1:20:58

like, a five-hour forenight, buy one, get

1:21:00

one free. Spectacular, because we

1:21:02

know it's going to be

1:21:04

boring most of it. That's

1:21:06

what the other sucking part

1:21:09

is, you know what I

1:21:11

mean? Right. So, yeah, yeah.

1:21:13

Also, the wrestling observer reports

1:21:15

that Miro, Ray Phoenix, Ricky

1:21:17

Starks, and Malachi Black will

1:21:19

all sign with W-W-E once

1:21:21

their A-W contracts expire. Rooseph

1:21:23

day! Roose of day is

1:21:25

coming back. Is he still

1:21:27

with CJ Perry? No. They

1:21:30

divorced in real life? Yes. Yeah.

1:21:32

Uh, Ricky Starks. He could be

1:21:34

good. Ray Phoenix would be fun

1:21:36

with his brother. Now I'm kind

1:21:38

of black. I've never liked since

1:21:40

NXT. Alistair Black. I just, I

1:21:42

don't know. Since he left, next

1:21:44

T. He did the weird. Well,

1:21:46

yeah, it was all Vince. Yeah.

1:21:48

He was that and then the

1:21:50

fucking Seth's gonna take your eyeball

1:21:52

out. Yeah, everything he did was

1:21:54

bad. Great wrestler. Was it his

1:21:56

fault that Vince put him in

1:21:58

a room for six months? I

1:22:00

know who knocks. It's

1:22:02

so fucking dumb. All

1:22:04

right, Heisenberg. That's all

1:22:06

I've got for rumors.

1:22:09

So, there's no Eric, but

1:22:11

let's do the Mark report.

1:22:14

Let's give it a try.

1:22:29

I'm gonna do my best Eric impression.

1:22:31

T&A had a paper view? They did!

1:22:34

I heard. Yeah. Okay. I believe in

1:22:36

Joe Hendry. And new! Yeah. Wow, he's

1:22:38

never won that title. I guess not.

1:22:40

They've had him this long. And they

1:22:43

haven't given him the strap. Right.

1:22:45

People just show up and get

1:22:47

the strap. Hogan can come

1:22:49

out of retirement. They'll give him

1:22:51

a strap. He might. Because WWE

1:22:53

and T&A announced a

1:22:56

multi-year partnership. that will have

1:22:58

wrestlers from each company crossing

1:23:01

over. So the big question is,

1:23:03

how many T&A wrestlers will we

1:23:05

see in the Royal Rumble?

1:23:07

Over under one and a

1:23:09

half. Are you talking both rumbles?

1:23:12

No. Or just the men? Men's.

1:23:14

That's a tough one. Because Joe

1:23:16

Henry, Joe Henry, and Ziegler. Yeah.

1:23:18

The Hardies? Like, wouldn't that

1:23:20

be a great mad Hardy?

1:23:22

I just, yeah, sure. Jeff

1:23:24

Hardy! Yeah. They can't do like five

1:23:27

of them though. I mean like it's

1:23:29

30 men. I would take them over

1:23:31

like Carlito. So Dominic. Like you know,

1:23:33

but triple H has got to be

1:23:35

like, you know, I don't know, it's going

1:23:37

to be tough. That's why I said one

1:23:40

and a half and say two and a

1:23:42

half. Like Hendry I think for sure is

1:23:44

sure. I would love to see Ziegler. Sure.

1:23:46

You know. Yeah, he's got one of those

1:23:49

rumble kind of records that he can kind

1:23:51

of get back. They're doing it back in

1:23:53

the top 10. Yeah, for all time, time.

1:23:55

I mean, now that they are in a

1:23:58

partnership, Dolv Ziegler could theoretically come back. Yes.

1:24:00

You see him talk about an

1:24:02

interview? No. They talked about it

1:24:04

and they're like, so this is

1:24:06

a partnership where you think? He

1:24:08

goes, well, I didn't leave the

1:24:10

WWE to just come right back

1:24:12

to the WWE. Yeah. He goes,

1:24:15

look, well, I do one off.

1:24:17

Sure, right? Like, am I a

1:24:19

company guy? Yes. But like my

1:24:21

focus is for T&A right now.

1:24:23

It might have been a good

1:24:25

company answer. Yeah. Because he does

1:24:27

work directly for T&A. I don't

1:24:29

know. Yeah. For events, like one-off,

1:24:32

like here's your event, like

1:24:34

your Russell, Royal Rumble fee.

1:24:36

Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah. So that's

1:24:38

gonna be interesting. Jordan Grace.

1:24:41

I don't know if you have

1:24:43

to pay those guys. You want me

1:24:45

to do what? And how much do

1:24:47

I have to pay you? I don't

1:24:50

have to pay you? I will be

1:24:52

in the rumble. Ziggler's not a mark.

1:24:54

He's probably smart enough. Like you're not

1:24:56

fucking me over. who Eric always

1:24:59

jerks off to. She had her

1:25:01

last match in T&A. She's most

1:25:03

likely already signed with WWE. Right.

1:25:05

She's coming. But we'll see if

1:25:07

that's NXC or if that's the main

1:25:09

roster. She was in last year's women's

1:25:11

rumble. She was in the last two

1:25:14

years. Two years. Yeah. So there you

1:25:16

go. That's all I've got for

1:25:18

the Mark report. It's a shorter

1:25:20

Mark report, not 30 minutes. Like

1:25:23

usual, yeah, but yeah, it's trivia

1:25:25

time. All right, we're gonna think

1:25:28

once again, Bobby the Mark. Mm-hmm.

1:25:30

Soy the ham? Soy ham. Soy

1:25:32

ham. Soy ham. Soy ham. Soy ham.

1:25:34

I think we said it wrong for

1:25:36

many years? That's it. No, he did.

1:25:39

It's soy ham. Soy ham. Yes, Bobby

1:25:41

the mark. Soy, soy, soy, soy, the

1:25:43

soy ham mark, soy damn. Yes, or

1:25:45

the D silent. The D is silent.

1:25:47

Okay, very good. And you could replace

1:25:50

it with an H. No, I know,

1:25:52

Bobby, I'm just messing with you. So,

1:25:54

yeah, this one's real simple. See if

1:25:56

you remember, it's member berries. Right. The

1:25:58

Royal Rumble in Houston. 2020. Oh,

1:26:00

we're the final four. All

1:26:03

right, Brock Lesner. Oh, no,

1:26:05

I'm sorry. Oh, 2020. Sorry,

1:26:07

sorry, 2020. Drew McIntire. Who

1:26:09

the fuck that he eliminates?

1:26:12

If you really think about

1:26:14

that rumble, these all make

1:26:16

sense. It was a big

1:26:18

guy, right? These are all

1:26:20

big names. These are all

1:26:23

hall of famous first ballot.

1:26:25

Was he tall? Oh, Roman.

1:26:27

Roman rains. He eliminated Roman,

1:26:29

right? True Roman, I believe.

1:26:31

Roman was the last one.

1:26:33

Yeah, yeah. Final four. Seth?

1:26:35

No. Remember that your Seth was

1:26:38

with AOP? This is all at the

1:26:40

watch. This is all at the

1:26:42

watch. Right? Didn't he come out

1:26:44

with like AOP and like, God,

1:26:47

I thought that was once COVID

1:26:49

started, but like, no, no, it

1:26:51

was definitely that rumble. I was

1:26:53

like, what is all this? Good

1:26:56

lord. Um, this was, uh, they're

1:26:58

two of the biggest singles wrestlers

1:27:00

of all time, but they were

1:27:03

also in a famous tag team.

1:27:05

They feuded, like, Crazy. Edge, and

1:27:07

Red, you are, yeah. That might have

1:27:09

been too much of a, um,

1:27:12

but that's right. What a great

1:27:14

final four. Drew Roman, uh, Edge

1:27:16

and Orton, Edge and Orton, uh,

1:27:18

Edge and Orton will probably also.

1:27:21

be in this rumble? Why wouldn't

1:27:23

he be? He's got to come

1:27:25

back for that, yeah. So like

1:27:27

just, it's just star-studded. Yep. I

1:27:30

don't care about this, but can

1:27:32

you name the women's final four

1:27:34

that year? Charlotte won. Yeah. Oscar?

1:27:36

No, you're just going to be

1:27:39

guessing, like, there's a legend in

1:27:41

the final four. Oh, Nicki Bella. No?

1:27:43

No? No, no, no. That was one

1:27:45

year, but it wasn't that year. Yeah,

1:27:47

I know I thought she did more

1:27:50

than once. Nikki Bellows in the, the

1:27:52

Bellas were like the last, who eliminated

1:27:54

in the fucking first rumble was ridiculous.

1:27:57

Stupid. Who's gonna win? Oscar or the

1:27:59

Bellas? Right. So ridiculous. So

1:28:01

Charlotte, you've got, uh,

1:28:03

Mickey James? No. No,

1:28:06

wrong legend. Um, Becky?

1:28:08

No. Was Becky, Becky,

1:28:10

yeah? In 2020? Yes.

1:28:13

She was. Like the

1:28:15

man? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

1:28:17

Because that was after

1:28:20

main eventing mania. Yeah.

1:28:22

Uh, fuck. Charlotte, there's

1:28:24

a job, a heel

1:28:26

jobber now. Someone who's

1:28:29

like always on the show

1:28:31

and pretty much always loses Shana Shana.

1:28:33

Yeah, there's someone who's always on not

1:28:35

always on the show anymore But you

1:28:37

know if you need a guy cross

1:28:39

she's been around for a long time

1:28:42

Natalia think about this Charlotte Shana Natalia,

1:28:44

I think about this Charlotte Shana Natalia

1:28:46

I think it's winning I think we

1:28:48

thought Shano was good with Shana's year.

1:28:50

Yeah, she was is she win the

1:28:52

chamber that year and then loses to

1:28:54

Becky Wow and then the fourth one

1:28:57

is uh Well, who came back in

1:28:59

the men's rumble? Oh, Naya? No. Who

1:29:01

was the big shocking moment in the

1:29:03

men's rumble? Oh, that year. Yeah.

1:29:05

Oh, so, so Beth Phoenix? Beth

1:29:07

Phoenix. Interesting, final four there. Yeah,

1:29:09

but yeah. I love trying to think

1:29:11

back up before, because you

1:29:14

always remember the winner. You

1:29:16

mostly remember the second place

1:29:18

guy. But then I just remember, I

1:29:20

just remember us, I remember

1:29:22

Charlotte won, because I remember

1:29:24

we were pissed we were pissed.

1:29:26

Yeah. that Charlotte really? Yeah,

1:29:28

she does. It's what she'd do.

1:29:31

I think that was that

1:29:33

also the rumble where Mandy

1:29:35

Rose was was with

1:29:37

Otis and Otis helped

1:29:39

her stay in the rumble.

1:29:41

I think so. Because it

1:29:44

was alive. Yeah, I think

1:29:46

it was that one. Feel

1:29:48

it was that one. Yeah,

1:29:50

he caught her man Ketster.

1:29:53

Absolutely. Oh, oh. Dinner. The bane of

1:29:55

every parent's existence. No one warns

1:29:57

you about it. And if dinner...

1:30:00

It wasn't hard enough. Next, you

1:30:02

one of mania if Kevin Owens

1:30:34

1:30:36

title in the main event? No,

1:30:38

but I would like to. It's

1:30:41

too expensive. Yeah. But I, you

1:30:43

know, if it wasn't so fucking

1:30:45

expensive, then sure. Yeah. Little Donnie's

1:30:47

choo-too-train. My sources tell me that

1:30:50

Hulk Hogan versus seeing punk at

1:30:52

Wrestle. Confirmed. Source Eric, the fucking

1:30:54

Marx Hamilton Hamilton with the Mark

1:30:57

report on what's wrong with wrestling

1:30:59

podcast. Confirmed. Josh's real girlfriend, Michael

1:31:01

Cole, is the worst. That handshake

1:31:03

with Jay was so cringe, he's

1:31:06

giving all of us white guys

1:31:08

a bad reputation. Yeah, that's true.

1:31:10

Alan watching Kevin Owens doing possibly

1:31:13

his finest work at the moment

1:31:15

on Smackdown and all I can

1:31:17

hear is E.A. Sports fight night

1:31:19

commentator going nuts. I keep thinking

1:31:22

Manny Pacio is going to come

1:31:24

out of nowhere with left hand.

1:31:26

What do you guys think of

1:31:28

this Joe Tessitor guy? He's just

1:31:31

a cold clone. He's not bad,

1:31:33

whatever. Yeah. AJB. Do you think

1:31:35

the Corey Grave situation is a

1:31:38

work? And we may get Corey

1:31:40

versus McPhee at Mania. No. It's

1:31:42

not a work. I don't think

1:31:44

so. Well, they do Corey versus

1:31:47

McAfee at Mania. Sure. They'll take

1:31:49

a work. They'll take a shoot

1:31:51

and turn it into a work.

1:31:54

Sure. They've done that before. That

1:31:56

is true. But no. Two vence.

1:31:58

Two vence is one cup! Oh.

1:32:00

laughs the whole time. No, was

1:32:03

Lyra Valkeria's entrance gear influenced by

1:32:05

the big horny bird from Little

1:32:07

Nicki? Yes. Could be. That is

1:32:10

confirmed. Kimbo, what has been

1:32:12

Triple H's? This is such good shit.

1:32:14

Decisions that you believe isn't.

1:32:16

Yeah. Like what's something we don't

1:32:19

like about Triple H? About, you

1:32:21

know, his booking. I guess that

1:32:23

baby faces win all the time.

1:32:25

Yeah, no factions. Maybe we're the

1:32:27

fucking stable. A little bit. Right.

1:32:30

Maybe I think he's regretting the

1:32:32

Wyatt Six. If he's like, you

1:32:34

know, this show now is not, it's not

1:32:36

really a wrestling show, it's more

1:32:38

of like a party, it's like a

1:32:41

party and you have, we have big

1:32:43

stars all the time and the Wyatt

1:32:45

Six is like this weird thing that

1:32:47

has nothing to do with the rest

1:32:50

of the show. And really it doesn't

1:32:52

fit in with the rest of the

1:32:54

show. No. So maybe we're just gonna

1:32:57

slowly. Faze them out. It's just

1:32:59

they have nothing. They have nothing

1:33:01

to do. If you have to

1:33:03

think back and go, okay, Bray

1:33:06

Wyatt with his Wyatt family.

1:33:08

Yeah. Okay, what did they do?

1:33:10

Who did they pick on? You

1:33:12

could pick on big names. You

1:33:14

can't see the Wyatt Six like

1:33:16

going after a Randy Orton

1:33:19

right now? No. Or John Sina. And

1:33:21

their baby faces. Right. And they're

1:33:23

just not Bray Wyatt. Yeah. It's

1:33:25

sad, but you know, it's sad

1:33:28

that we lost Bray Wyatt because

1:33:30

he was one fucking hell of

1:33:32

a promo. Yeah. He's an amazing

1:33:34

wrestler. Would you ever ask a

1:33:36

Nightingale? Clearly this is all to

1:33:38

set up JBL's triumphant return to

1:33:41

win the rumble would somehow still

1:33:43

be better than JUSO as champion.

1:33:45

Probably. What is JBL doing that

1:33:47

he can't be one of the

1:33:49

announcers? He's clotheslining random

1:33:52

people on T&A. He's still

1:33:54

doing it. Is he? Yes. Is that why

1:33:56

he was here, because the deal? Well, yeah.

1:33:58

He's a legend's deal. I don't know. But

1:34:00

no, he was at the last, he was at

1:34:03

Genesis this past weekend, closed lining people.

1:34:05

Great. One of these and one of

1:34:07

those. My friend and I went to

1:34:09

a college basketball game last Wednesday and

1:34:12

they mentioned something about free pizza. And

1:34:14

as both of us are listeners of

1:34:16

this podcast, we turned to each other

1:34:18

and said pizza. That's the shirt I'm

1:34:21

wearing if you're listening only. Nice. Tyrone.

1:34:23

It's not really regarding anything in particular, but

1:34:25

I always found it weird when a heel

1:34:27

gets kicked out of a heel group. He

1:34:30

automatically becomes a face. I can understand if

1:34:32

they left on their own, saw the error

1:34:34

of their ways, then became a good guy.

1:34:36

But what if they weren't done being an

1:34:39

asshole yet? Well, it usually works

1:34:41

itself out to where they start acting more

1:34:43

as a face, like Damien Priest and

1:34:45

Ripley, and the crowd is loving them,

1:34:48

so that when they get kicked out,

1:34:50

it's just they're instantly a face. That's

1:34:52

usually how that works. Sure. That's just

1:34:55

wrestling logic. Wrestling 101. Yeah. Like, does

1:34:57

it really make sense? Logically, no.

1:34:59

But in wrestling, it works. Yeah.

1:35:01

Nick, ask you. Last year, one

1:35:04

of my fellow, what's wrong with

1:35:06

wrestling? Marx, had created the final

1:35:08

year-long award scoreboard, counting up every

1:35:10

vote from the episodes. Is that

1:35:13

coming for 2024? Got to know

1:35:15

officially what kind of landslide we

1:35:17

had for nigh getting worse dressed

1:35:19

and punk getting best acting. It's

1:35:22

not just last year. It's been

1:35:24

happening for years, but Kyle Foxton.

1:35:26

I'm calling you out man We

1:35:28

need you to do it brother if

1:35:30

you can if not it's fine. It's

1:35:32

a lot of work But we did

1:35:34

love we did like going through it.

1:35:37

Yeah seem like the fans like it

1:35:39

if someone else wants to do

1:35:41

it It sure is a lot

1:35:43

of work, but We would appreciate

1:35:45

it big stinky giant pushfire

1:35:48

Barry this year's rumble winner

1:35:50

No pushpunk. Yeah Barry Kevin

1:35:53

Owens even though he's not gonna be

1:35:55

in it and fire Sina. He doesn't need

1:35:57

to win it. He's wanted enough. He

1:35:59

can be an any match in Wrestlemania.

1:36:01

Exactly. You just name it. I

1:36:03

want to fight this guy. Okay.

1:36:06

Yeah. The Rizzler, this is a

1:36:08

bit of a cross between what's

1:36:10

wrong with wrestling and hogwash. My

1:36:12

kid asked me if W. W.

1:36:15

Wrestlers were Avengers. Who would they

1:36:17

be? My response. Roman rains

1:36:19

as Thor. Aquaman. Aquaman. Well,

1:36:21

the Avengers. Yeah. Brock,

1:36:23

Brock Lesnar has the Hulk.

1:36:25

That makes sense. Yeah. Cody

1:36:27

Rhodes as Captain America. See

1:36:29

him punk is Iron Man,

1:36:31

yeah? Sure, be Tony Stark.

1:36:33

Fuck. I like him. Sammy

1:36:35

Zane for Hawkeye. What if?

1:36:37

Right. Charlotte Flair for Black

1:36:39

Widow, replace that with Becky,

1:36:42

I would say, you know. Of course, same

1:36:44

hair. Kevin Owens is Loki?

1:36:46

Fuck yeah. And then, uh, uh,

1:36:48

Nick Fury is, Paul Haman is Nick

1:36:50

Fury. All of this makes too much

1:36:52

sense, like, like, weirdly. Right. Wow. Wow.

1:36:54

You'd almost want like Sammy Zane to

1:36:56

be Thor and so that Owens is

1:36:59

Loki and then they you know their

1:37:01

brothers but they hate each other. That's

1:37:03

funny. Falcon Spade! How does Gayo go

1:37:05

from my then best friend Sammy Zane on

1:37:07

Smackdown to you're like a brother to me

1:37:09

on raw? I was thinking about that because

1:37:11

he's a heel. Yeah, we can do that

1:37:14

I guess. Because look on Smackdown, he's selling

1:37:16

Ray, I want to may have ever submitted

1:37:18

with you. He just looking for someone to

1:37:20

help him out. Right, right, right, right, right,

1:37:23

right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right,

1:37:25

right, right, right, right, right, right, right, right,

1:37:27

right. Jason Deere, I'm on Smackdown, Ray said

1:37:29

that when he won the Royal Rumble, he

1:37:31

entered at number two and had to defeat

1:37:34

28 other competitors. So if he entered at

1:37:36

number 30, would he have

1:37:38

to defeat zero competitors? Math checks

1:37:40

out. Yeah. David Shrank, hey Joe,

1:37:42

how many big boss man key

1:37:44

chains you got left? Who asked

1:37:46

that? David Shrank. I mean, we

1:37:48

haven't talked about that in years.

1:37:51

Yeah. What a great, thank you,

1:37:53

David. You're a long-time listener.

1:37:55

Yeah. At one point I had

1:37:57

50. I want to say I've seen

1:37:59

one read. recently, so one. We

1:38:01

used to have one on the desk. One

1:38:03

is in this room somewhere. Yeah, so two?

1:38:05

I didn't see it in here. You throw

1:38:07

the rest away? I mean, I've tried

1:38:09

to sell them, but at one point

1:38:11

I think my ex-wife just was like,

1:38:13

do we really need it anymore? No.

1:38:15

Let's throw him away. I think there's

1:38:17

two in existence. In the whole world,

1:38:19

only joke. I just saw that box

1:38:21

of as a as a f- as

1:38:23

a you fucking mark. I saw a

1:38:25

box of them was like how much

1:38:27

for the entire box guys like I'll

1:38:30

take 10 bucks. And where you this

1:38:32

was like a garage sale? It was

1:38:34

like a swap meet, what do you

1:38:36

call those here? Flea market type of

1:38:38

thing. That was like your Josh

1:38:40

moment. Like Josh buying an undertaker

1:38:42

NFT. I'm gonna be rich. There's like,

1:38:44

it was like a dollar each or

1:38:46

not even. I was like, hey, I

1:38:49

buy the whole box and he's like,

1:38:51

you got 10 bucks. I might have

1:38:53

given him 20. But I thought eBay

1:38:56

was just becoming a thing. This was

1:38:58

so fucking long ago. I was looking

1:39:00

at LA. So it'd be like the

1:39:02

year 99 or 2000. And I just

1:39:05

thought I can sell each one for

1:39:07

10 bucks and there were 500 in

1:39:09

there. I thought I was going to

1:39:11

make a huge profit. Wow. For

1:39:13

like 799 and that's it. You

1:39:15

should have offered them some pogs to

1:39:18

go with it. That's right about

1:39:20

a thousand pogs Shipping one million

1:39:22

dollars. Yeah, that cemetery guy. I

1:39:25

noticed at the top of raw

1:39:27

It was rated TV 14

1:39:29

for language violence and substances

1:39:31

and substances Do you see any

1:39:33

substance stuff substances on raw?

1:39:36

I was there some guy smoking weed in

1:39:38

the crowd or what? Maybe I don't

1:39:40

know Pop culture junkie, Jackie Redmond told

1:39:43

C.M. Punk, the Royal Rumble is

1:39:45

a PLE. You've never won. It's

1:39:47

called a match. The Royal Rumble match, you

1:39:49

can't fucking do it. Once again, this

1:39:51

is why punk is probably the one

1:39:53

of the greatest of all time. I

1:39:56

remember her saying that. Yeah. Hey, you

1:39:58

haven't won that paper view. What? Right.

1:40:00

He named drops Hogan in a

1:40:02

bad-ass wrestling promo. The Slamelton

1:40:05

marks think he's burying Hogan,

1:40:07

but he's actually making him

1:40:09

relevant A-plus punk. Oh. I'm

1:40:11

sure Hogan saw it that way

1:40:13

too. Right. Thanks, brother. Yeah, he's dude.

1:40:15

Thanks for the shot. I'm sending you

1:40:17

some Hulk Hogan beer. Yeah. Real American

1:40:20

beer. Hulk. Do you not watch the

1:40:22

show? Do you see the clip going

1:40:24

around? Of course, my brother. where it's

1:40:26

like he's like yeah I don't drink

1:40:28

anymore I haven't had a drink in

1:40:30

years then he's showing with the beer

1:40:32

oh my god it's like oh again

1:40:35

of course you're so full of shit

1:40:37

all the time all the time which

1:40:39

makes sense because isn't he a psychologist

1:40:41

now no would make sense yeah is he

1:40:43

really yeah like the story was that his

1:40:45

wife is and she got him into it

1:40:48

his new wife yeah yeah although maybe

1:40:50

Trump was like you gotta stop

1:40:52

that shit if you're gonna be with

1:40:54

me right Ryberg, go back! Who are

1:40:56

we going to see again in a

1:40:58

WWE ring first? Brock Lesner?

1:41:00

Baron Corbin? No. Giovanni

1:41:03

Vinci? He's still technically

1:41:05

on Smackdown. Alister Black,

1:41:07

Roosiff. Oh. Probably Brock.

1:41:09

If, I mean, imagine

1:41:12

this rumble as Brock too.

1:41:14

That'd be insane. You'd only

1:41:16

be coming in to be eliminated

1:41:19

by the guy he's fighting. The

1:41:21

only reason he's still not back.

1:41:24

is just because they're worried

1:41:26

that they'll bring up the Vince

1:41:28

stuff. Who? Who's they? The reporters

1:41:30

after Rum on the... It's their people!

1:41:32

They're all fucking marks in that room,

1:41:35

right? But they do every every

1:41:37

paper view. They ask Triple H about

1:41:39

Vince and he's like, he's not

1:41:41

here anymore guys. Maybe Alistair Black.

1:41:43

Like I feel like when these

1:41:45

guys leave AW, they don't have

1:41:47

the... You gotta wait nine months?

1:41:49

Like it's quick. And then they're

1:41:52

in the fucking rumble or something.

1:41:54

Yeah, I would say Brock. They're

1:41:56

paying him so much money to

1:41:58

not use him They gotta be,

1:42:00

you know, at some point it's gotta happen. If they're

1:42:02

not gonna use them, like if they're like, we can't

1:42:04

use them, like release them. What are you afraid he's gonna

1:42:06

go to AW? Who gives, he's not? He might, he would, for

1:42:08

what he'd like. I'll show up twice a year for 20 million.

1:42:10

Okay, yeah, done. Give me a hug. No. Okay. Okay. But

1:42:12

I'm gonna make a Brock Brock Lizard lizard. I'm gonna hug

1:42:15

that. Fine. I'm gonna hug that. Fine. I hate to mark out

1:42:17

for a mark out for our for our own for our own for

1:42:19

our own show, for our own show, for our own show, for our own show,

1:42:21

for our own show, for our own show, for our own show, but, but,

1:42:23

for our own show, but, but, for our own show, but, but,

1:42:25

like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,

1:42:27

like, I didn't know I'd

1:42:29

ever watch that. What the

1:42:31

fuck was he doing? Like,

1:42:34

he just doesn't know how

1:42:36

to be human. He's almost

1:42:39

saying like, gulp, gulp, gulp,

1:42:41

gulp. Yeah. Gulp. It was

1:42:44

so awkward. So bad. Is

1:42:46

he doing? Meanwhile, the reporter

1:42:48

is just sucking him off.

1:42:50

Yeah. It's so fucking crazy.

1:42:52

Lepicondon! Was there no one

1:42:54

else in catering that could

1:42:56

wrestle this week? Why were

1:42:58

Ray, Miseria, and Bailey needed

1:43:00

to wrestle on both shows?

1:43:02

Double Duty, Kevin Owens was

1:43:05

on both, right? Yeah. Wow. Jonathan Loreno.

1:43:07

I missed commenting on some of

1:43:09

my favorite moments a couple weeks

1:43:11

ago, but some of mine are

1:43:13

the Kilbasa Queen. Joe's Soundboard episode.

1:43:15

All these Saudi references, the infamous

1:43:17

Marina Sophia promo, and Josh's press

1:43:19

5 to stimulate JR. Happy 10-year

1:43:22

anniversary and hope y'all enjoyed the

1:43:24

snow we got. It was nice.

1:43:26

We got some snow. Yeah. Was

1:43:28

I here pressing those buttons for

1:43:30

myself? Yes. I was, right? Yes.

1:43:32

If you listen, I went back

1:43:34

to listen to some of that

1:43:36

episode, it's fucking amazing. Because the

1:43:38

timing of the buttons? Yeah. It

1:43:40

is really good stuff. Like, it's pretty

1:43:42

funny, like, oh, wow, okay, how did you do

1:43:45

that? Because I did two at the same time,

1:43:47

I was like, oh, wow, you're pretty talented, Joe.

1:43:49

I got that surgery. It was good, it was

1:43:51

so good. Lival chief, maybe it would have

1:43:53

killed Kay Fay, but during the Bob Euchre

1:43:55

tribute, they could have mentioned that Kevin Owen

1:43:58

shares his name with one of Bob. character's

1:44:00

sons on Mr. Belvedere,

1:44:02

who was portrayed by none

1:44:04

other than Rob Stone,

1:44:06

the actor, not the porn

1:44:09

director on NXT. I'm

1:44:12

very confused. I'm not sure I followed all that, but

1:44:14

thank you. One of

1:44:16

Bob's character's sons on Mr. Belvedere.

1:44:20

I don't know. I'm sorry. We don't get it.

1:44:23

We don't get it. This is named Kevin

1:44:25

Owens. I guess. Chad Beagle. Why has Cena

1:44:27

only been on one episode of Raw?

1:44:29

I thought he was back full time. I

1:44:31

mean, I guess he's there in the

1:44:33

McDonald's ads. It's not just McDonald's. It's the Honda

1:44:35

ads. He's on like three or four commercials. Yeah,

1:44:37

but right. He is supposed to be there full time.

1:44:39

Yeah. He is. And he's not. Yeah.

1:44:42

And they haven't announced him. They

1:44:44

didn't announce him for next Raw, and that's the

1:44:46

Raw before the Rumble. Yeah. But

1:44:48

he's going to be at the Rumble. So

1:44:51

his character's name on the

1:44:53

show, Kevin Owens. And that's

1:44:55

Bob Euker's son. That's Bob Euker's

1:44:57

son on the show. So he

1:44:59

was George Owens and he was

1:45:01

Kevin Owens. Wow. All right. Uncle

1:45:04

Saudi, does anyone else ever go back

1:45:06

and watch that CM Punk all in press

1:45:08

conference for fun? Calling Cowboy an empty

1:45:10

headed dumb fuck is so insane. Yeah. I

1:45:12

mean, when I see clips, I love

1:45:15

it. It is great. Leah

1:45:17

Matard missed the chance to comment the

1:45:19

last couple of weeks, but just wanted

1:45:21

to mention my favorite podcast moment has

1:45:23

to be between Andrew's rendition of

1:45:25

Cody's theme song. My pussy

1:45:27

hurts, Brock fucked it.

1:45:29

Something like that. Or before

1:45:31

WrestleMania 40, Andrew personing

1:45:33

Stone Cold crying like Cody

1:45:35

Rhodes. Both

1:45:41

those moments left so hard.

1:45:43

I had to pause the podcast

1:45:46

and re -listen over and over

1:45:48

again. Thanks for all the

1:45:50

1:46:23

bellas, and then Barry Stephanie.

1:46:26

1:46:38

We. Who's the w- Okay, so

1:46:43

they've said there's six months. Yeah,

1:46:45

there's some time left. Yeah, who's

1:46:47

the women's rumble favorite? We talked about

1:46:49

Charlotte and Becky. Yeah, one of them.

1:46:51

Yeah, see, this guy's trying to get

1:46:53

away with like 10 questions. We

1:46:56

need more brackets. What about things?

1:46:58

People in the crowd yelled out

1:47:00

or funniest character moments like Kayo,

1:47:02

Jericho, or Samoa Joe's promos. So

1:47:04

maybe, it's possible. Angela, with your

1:47:07

recent use of chat, GPT for

1:47:09

the Action Hero Draft on Hollywood

1:47:11

Hogwash, which you can go check

1:47:13

out. I'm curious what it

1:47:16

would say for a hypothetical triple

1:47:18

threat between Drew, Punk, and Seth.

1:47:20

Mr. McMahon, uh, GPT would say,

1:47:23

Roman would cash it, his money,

1:47:25

the bank contract, and win it

1:47:27

all. That's accurate. Yeah. Wesley
