<v Speaker 1>Tuesday here on the show. And you know that means

0:00:46.320 --> 0:00:49.600
<v Speaker 1>you got a lot to get into here today. Yesterday

0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 1>it was Monday nightra it was the final raw before

0:00:53.440 --> 0:00:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Survivor Series. And we have a full lineup for Survivor Series,

0:00:57.000 --> 0:01:04.480
<v Speaker 1>including the fifth man for the Baby Wargames team. And

0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:07.399
<v Speaker 1>it appears to be Randy Orton. It's Randy Orton. But

0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:10.480
<v Speaker 1>it was funny because they made the big announcement last

0:01:10.560 --> 0:01:14.679
<v Speaker 1>night and they never actually said the name Randy Orton.

0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:18.720
<v Speaker 1>They kind of did all of his you know, different

0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:22.800
<v Speaker 1>nicknames as such, and the fans chanted Randy and then

0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Cody says, you all know who it is, and they

0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:25.400
<v Speaker 1>immediately went off the air.

0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:26.319
<v Speaker 4>So that was kind of weird.

0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 1>But Randy Orton is the fifth man on that team.

0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:31.680
<v Speaker 1>We got the Wargames Women's match, We've got all the

0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:35.039
<v Speaker 1>other matches scheduled for the show, and of course at

<v Speaker 2>and Mike simper VV on the Sports Byline Broadcasting Network.

0:06:18.279 --> 0:06:23.240
<v Speaker 1>In the show, Brian Albarez here Wrestling Observer Live. Mike

0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:29.719
<v Speaker 1>simper Vv also Wrestling Observer dot com. Yeah, there's always

0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.800
<v Speaker 1>something before the show. I'm not sure my Brian at

0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:35.840
<v Speaker 1>Wrestling Observe dot com has been working for a month. Oh,

0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:40.159
<v Speaker 1>luckily I have multiple email addresses. But if you've sent

0:06:40.200 --> 0:06:42.359
<v Speaker 1>me something to that address and I didn't respond, that

0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:43.080
<v Speaker 1>might be why.

0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:44.039
<v Speaker 4>Oops?

0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, don't everyone send something at once? I don't want

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:50.880
<v Speaker 1>to thing flooded, but something's definitely weird.

0:06:51.480 --> 0:06:52.840
<v Speaker 4>Can we use your Juno email?

0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:57.240
<v Speaker 1>No, it doesn't work either. Yeah, something's definitely not working.

0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:02.599
<v Speaker 1>What could I possibly gotten over the last month that

0:07:02.680 --> 0:07:05.080
<v Speaker 1>I never got? Can you imagine.

0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:05.719
<v Speaker 4>Apparently a virus?

0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Can you imagine the things that might have been sent

0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:10.680
<v Speaker 1>to me that I just totally ignored? Maybe the Rocky

0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:14.080
<v Speaker 1>mailed me about that mysterious death of w CW thing

0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:14.600
<v Speaker 1>that they're.

0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:17.040
<v Speaker 4>Doing now, exactly what's that all about?

0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:18.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, what's it all about?

0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 4>What's that all about it? Why haven't you been contacted for.

0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:21.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I don't know.

0:07:22.000 --> 0:07:22.960
<v Speaker 4>You wrote the book?

0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:25.680
<v Speaker 1>You know what it is. It's a mystery, is what

0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:26.120
<v Speaker 1>it is?

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 4>Two different editions of it.

0:07:28.360 --> 0:07:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you got another big one there too, I.

0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 4>Do what is that? This is a tinder box. This

0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 4>is the HBO's Ruthless Pursuit of New Frontiers by James

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:42.480
<v Speaker 4>Andrew Miller. This is the guy that, along with Tom Shales,

0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:46.000
<v Speaker 4>wrote the Saturday Night Live book a few years back,

0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.640
<v Speaker 4>actually more than a few years back, but it was incredible.

0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:51.320
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, I was not expecting it to be as

0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:53.920
<v Speaker 4>large as it was. But it's the War and Peace

0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:55.160
<v Speaker 4>of HBO.

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:59.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh in God's name would read so many words me ridiculous.

0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:03.680
<v Speaker 1>All right, you've got Survivor series coming up on Saturday.

0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:14.640
<v Speaker 1>And yes, they did sort of announce last night that rent.

0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:15.080
<v Speaker 4>David Zaslov letting me know he liked the free promotion

0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:16.120
<v Speaker 4>for the HBO.

0:08:15.800 --> 0:08:19.560
<v Speaker 1>Boo I start over again. They announced kind of that

0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:22.360
<v Speaker 1>Randy Orton will be the fifth man on the Babyface team.

0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:25.680
<v Speaker 1>So they once again did the storyline where so for

0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:30.200
<v Speaker 1>the women there's four on each team and on SmackDown,

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:32.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, the baby Faces were told you must have

0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:36.599
<v Speaker 1>your fourth woman in the building by the end of

0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:38.520
<v Speaker 1>the show or else I guess they would have to

0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:41.720
<v Speaker 1>be three on four. So you know, they called Becky

0:08:41.960 --> 0:08:44.720
<v Speaker 1>with fifteen minutes left on the show, and somehow she's

0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:46.920
<v Speaker 1>not only able to get there but be in her gear.

0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:50.840
<v Speaker 1>That was very impressive. So this time the Babyfaces, the

0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:53.720
<v Speaker 1>male baby Face were told the same thing, but apparently

0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:55.640
<v Speaker 1>they didn't have to have the person in the building.

0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:58.160
<v Speaker 1>They just had to announce the person. So they spend

0:08:58.200 --> 0:08:59.840
<v Speaker 1>all night trying to figure out what they're going to do.

0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:02.760
<v Speaker 1>And then finally in this show, there's a big you know,

0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:07.920
<v Speaker 1>a rigmarole or whatever, and Cody comes out and he

0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 1>cuts a promo and he says, we are not alone.

0:09:12.960 --> 0:09:18.040
<v Speaker 1>We have found a fifth member someone. He says, then

0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:21.120
<v Speaker 1>I have a legacy with and when he said legacy, man,

0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:24.720
<v Speaker 1>they pop big. They do exactly who he was talking about.

0:09:25.000 --> 0:09:29.559
<v Speaker 1>And then he says our partner is an apex predator,

0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.600
<v Speaker 1>and they go yay, They chant Randy's name, and then

0:09:33.720 --> 0:09:38.000
<v Speaker 1>Cody says, you fans are right, and then show went

0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:41.800
<v Speaker 1>off the air. I was like, Okay, I guess it's Randy.

0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:45.320
<v Speaker 4>Presume so well it is. They actually put it up

0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:46.800
<v Speaker 4>on WWE dot com.

0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:49.880
<v Speaker 1>If you watch the h those social media folks on

0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:51.760
<v Speaker 1>w w dot com. Don't know what they're doing.

0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:55.880
<v Speaker 4>That's true, I guess, But hey.

0:09:54.880 --> 0:09:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it was Deposs Junior. Well, he had a legacy

0:09:58.640 --> 0:09:59.440
<v Speaker 1>with Cody.

0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:02.160
<v Speaker 4>He he was an apex predator. I guess in the

0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.560
<v Speaker 4>Marine movie that he started. I guess you could go

0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:06.480
<v Speaker 4>ahead and do that and then you could have a

0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:09.800
<v Speaker 4>riot on your hands. But what they did was, I believe,

0:10:09.880 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 4>prevented any riot that people wanted to cook up in

0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:16.400
<v Speaker 4>their minds when they didn't see CM punk be that

0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:19.479
<v Speaker 4>person that showed up and was the surprise on Saturday.

0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:22.400
<v Speaker 4>So I think they did a great job setting that up.

0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:25.320
<v Speaker 4>Randy Warton is going to be there. Sure they're going

0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:28.960
<v Speaker 4>to be CM punk chants because it's Chicago, so that's cool.

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:31.600
<v Speaker 4>But once the thing is over with, I don't think

0:10:31.600 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 4>anybody's gonna have a problem at all.

0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Well let's see, I'm looking through everything right.

0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:39.079
<v Speaker 4>Here, your old emails that you found.

0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it looks like, uh, let's see, here.

0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:45.040
<v Speaker 4>Is where all the renewals went.

0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, October five, no email since October five? What is

0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:52.480
<v Speaker 1>it November twenty one. That's a lot of emails.

0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:54.400
<v Speaker 4>Bro enjoying that silence.

0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:55.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, October five.

0:10:55.960 --> 0:10:58.200
<v Speaker 4>They has an idea delete all.

0:10:59.120 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, I me don't care.

0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:02.600
<v Speaker 4>Obviously you're not missing.

0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:06.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna tell Tony here looks like.

0:11:08.600 --> 0:11:09.320
<v Speaker 4>October.

0:11:09.440 --> 0:11:10.400
<v Speaker 1>What did I say? Six?

0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:15.360
<v Speaker 4>Fifth? Fifth? Yes? Now is this something that has plagued

0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:17.080
<v Speaker 4>everybody with a fur w.

0:11:18.280 --> 0:11:21.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't care about everybody else. I honestly don't care

0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:23.679
<v Speaker 1>about any of them that I missed. How has my

0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:29.280
<v Speaker 1>life been different in the last six weeks? Yeah, I

0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:33.280
<v Speaker 1>guess it didn't give ballad either. Okay, So we've also

0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:36.240
<v Speaker 1>got n XT tonight. Now, this show was tape. You

0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:38.800
<v Speaker 1>know what that means. That means that I can tell

0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:41.880
<v Speaker 1>you that all these matches are gonna happen tonight. There

0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:42.920
<v Speaker 1>will not be any changes.

0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:43.640
<v Speaker 4>You sure.

0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:47.640
<v Speaker 1>We have an Iron Survivor Challenge qualifier Carmelo Hayes versus

0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Josh Briggs. Josh Briggs is the fornicator for those of

0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:56.600
<v Speaker 1>you following along. Yes, we've got Blair Davenport and THEA

0:11:56.679 --> 0:12:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Hale Women's Iron Survivor Challenge qualifire. We have Lyra val

0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:08.680
<v Speaker 1>Kaira defending against Zaya Lee, who lost to Becky Lynch

0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:10.520
<v Speaker 1>on Raw Monday.

0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:11.520
<v Speaker 4>So how you do it?

0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.360
<v Speaker 1>No, that's not how you do it. That's that's stupid. Okay,

0:12:15.679 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 1>that's like beating hook for only the second time in

0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.880
<v Speaker 1>his entire aw career and then on the very next

0:12:21.880 --> 0:12:25.520
<v Speaker 1>show just randomly going on doing a job. No m

0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:30.400
<v Speaker 1>dar versus Chad Gable, Angel Garza and Umberto Coreo.

0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:33.640
<v Speaker 4>Didn't till Zawa get squashed before he had his match again, Yeah,

0:12:33.679 --> 0:12:34.640
<v Speaker 4>that was also stupid.

0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, andras no fan Moligue, Blade and Eddie Thorpe and

0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Charlie Dempsey. See the thing is, okay, listen, you want

0:12:40.960 --> 0:12:43.920
<v Speaker 1>Zie to get championship match, okay, cool, Well, you know,

0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:46.480
<v Speaker 1>give it to her and then she can face Becky

0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:49.840
<v Speaker 1>next Monday. Why does she have to face Becky, lose

0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:52.040
<v Speaker 1>and then go her to have her championship match. That

0:12:52.040 --> 0:12:54.000
<v Speaker 1>doesn't make any sense to me. I don't know why

0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:54.400
<v Speaker 1>they do this.

0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:56.920
<v Speaker 4>There was no other woman on the roster. Becky could

0:12:56.960 --> 0:12:57.400
<v Speaker 4>have faced them.

0:12:57.400 --> 0:12:57.439
<v Speaker 8>No.

0:12:57.640 --> 0:12:59.720
<v Speaker 1>The point is they've been building this feud up forever,

0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:02.160
<v Speaker 1>but you didn't have to do it the night before

0:13:02.400 --> 0:13:04.920
<v Speaker 1>she gets a championship match on NXC. That's my point,

0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:05.520
<v Speaker 1>I know.

0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:08.920
<v Speaker 4>But next week she could have interfered against Becky, caused

0:13:08.920 --> 0:13:11.800
<v Speaker 4>some havoc, that's what caused the DQ and then she

0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:14.400
<v Speaker 4>could have had her match without losing, and she could

0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:17.679
<v Speaker 4>have actually looked a little bit stronger maybe, but I don't.

0:13:17.520 --> 0:13:19.800
<v Speaker 1>Know, SmackDown or something like that.

0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:24.920
<v Speaker 4>Why isn't Zion Lee then the fifth person on that dam.

0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Because there's only four people on each team. But why

0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:32.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, and it doesn't matter, Yes it does.

0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:34.920
<v Speaker 4>So then we've got to see ra Kellen there. Then

0:13:34.960 --> 0:13:36.880
<v Speaker 4>fight Nia Jacks, wouldn't you.

0:13:37.440 --> 0:13:42.120
<v Speaker 1>Then we've got tomorrow. I don't believe anything has been

0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:44.160
<v Speaker 1>announced for aw Dynamite as.

0:13:44.040 --> 0:13:44.640
<v Speaker 2>Of right now.

0:13:45.320 --> 0:13:47.160
<v Speaker 4>Now now it's a bit have I have.

0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:49.160
<v Speaker 1>I missed something? Everybody. I don't think anything has been

0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:50.480
<v Speaker 1>announced for the actual Dynamos.

0:13:50.559 --> 0:13:55.680
<v Speaker 4>An announcement of an announcement of the collision in her

0:13:55.760 --> 0:13:57.960
<v Speaker 4>Continental Continental Classic.

0:13:58.240 --> 0:14:01.160
<v Speaker 1>I have seen, oh, check Gable us last night as well,

0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah he did, but at least well I guess Zia's

0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:06.160
<v Speaker 1>was a kind of a back and forth too. But anyway,

0:14:06.440 --> 0:14:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Wednesday we have the Continental Classic Selection special. So we've

0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:16.040
<v Speaker 1>got a Continental Classic coming up. And it was announced

0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:19.320
<v Speaker 1>quite a while ago, actually two weeks ago, quite a while.

0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:20.320
<v Speaker 1>It was.

0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:24.280
<v Speaker 4>It was the Saturday before this past Saturday.

0:14:24.480 --> 0:14:27.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's almost two weeks ago. They announced it and

0:14:28.560 --> 0:14:31.800
<v Speaker 1>we know virtually nobody in it, and so instead of

0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:37.440
<v Speaker 1>announcing it on Dynamite, Collision Rampage or the pay per view,

0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:43.120
<v Speaker 1>this will be a streaming special. It will air on

0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:48.800
<v Speaker 1>x YouTube and Facebook. Tony Kahan announced that it would

0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:54.160
<v Speaker 1>be Wednesday. He didn't say when. I have no idea.

0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:56.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't help you guys. I don't know when this

0:14:56.040 --> 0:15:04.560
<v Speaker 1>will stream, but there will be Continental Classic matches on Wednesday. Now, granted,

0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:08.120
<v Speaker 1>we do know Brian Danielson Andrade who didn't want to

0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:11.000
<v Speaker 1>be in it. He'll be talked into it, and uh

0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:13.360
<v Speaker 1>and Mark Briscoe, Right, we know those three.

0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:20.200
<v Speaker 4>Before we got Indrade, Mark Briscoe, Danielson and Kingston Kingston.

0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:23.280
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, so we got four, we got the belts,

0:15:23.360 --> 0:15:27.800
<v Speaker 1>so this doesn't have to air before Dynamite. They could

0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:30.880
<v Speaker 1>do matches involving the four people we know and then

0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:35.360
<v Speaker 1>do the selection special after Dynamite. But you see, I

0:15:35.400 --> 0:15:37.720
<v Speaker 1>don't know, I don't know when this is. I have

0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:42.400
<v Speaker 1>no earthly idea when the Continental Classic Selection special will be.

0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:45.080
<v Speaker 4>Well, you see, Brian made book show by show.

0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:47.840
<v Speaker 1>I presume that soon we will know this answer, maybe

0:15:47.840 --> 0:15:50.480
<v Speaker 1>even by the end of this show back in the moment.

0:15:50.480 --> 0:16:16.800
<v Speaker 2>It was a relive some time. You are listening to

<v Speaker 4>When did you? Did you send it already?

0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I just sent it right now? Okay, Well we got

0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:28.320
<v Speaker 1>more news here, so uh, Friday night's collision. We had

0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:32.040
<v Speaker 1>Collision going head to head with SmackDown. What a fun

0:17:32.119 --> 0:17:36.920
<v Speaker 1>day it was on Twitter yesterday, So was there anybody

0:17:36.960 --> 0:17:39.639
<v Speaker 1>that was fooling themselves into thinking the Collision was going

0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:42.240
<v Speaker 1>to do well? Did I miss the memo the Collision

0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:44.840
<v Speaker 1>was going to do great opposite SmackDown.

0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:46.040
<v Speaker 4>Jay White was going to win the title.

0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:50.159
<v Speaker 1>Well, it did very poorly, did a point eight in

0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:53.800
<v Speaker 1>eighteen to forty nine and two hundred and seventy thousand viewers,

0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:58.000
<v Speaker 1>so it got killed. And then on the bright of

0:17:58.040 --> 0:18:00.080
<v Speaker 1>INNI show we were talking about we were viewing the

0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:03.080
<v Speaker 1>shows on Sunday and Vinny said that of all the

0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:07.280
<v Speaker 1>shows on that he watched Rampage. He said, between Dynamite

0:18:07.400 --> 0:18:10.639
<v Speaker 1>Collision and Rampage, he thought Rampage was the best show.

0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:12.240
<v Speaker 1>But he said it was going to be the least

0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:16.119
<v Speaker 1>watch show. And I said, I don't know about that, brother, because.

0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:20.520
<v Speaker 4>The uh, SmackDown ends a ten.

0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:22.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, SmackDown ends a ten, so it's not head to

0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:26.040
<v Speaker 1>head with SmackDown, so it actually might do better than Collision.

0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:32.560
<v Speaker 1>And as a matter of fact, it did. Hey, Rampage

0:18:32.560 --> 0:18:36.639
<v Speaker 1>did two hundred and eighty thousand and a point oh nine,

0:18:37.480 --> 0:18:43.280
<v Speaker 1>So Rampage beat Collision bubbly on whatever day.

0:18:43.280 --> 0:18:43.719
<v Speaker 2>That was right?

0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:48.159
<v Speaker 1>All right, SmackDown now here's what's what's silly about all

0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:51.879
<v Speaker 1>of this? Okay, so Collision not only airs by the

0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:55.520
<v Speaker 1>way head edd with SmackDown, but also on an unfamiliar night,

0:18:56.440 --> 0:18:59.560
<v Speaker 1>and apparently people didn't take that into consideration either. And

0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:01.399
<v Speaker 1>you know, I I pointed these facts out and I

0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:03.600
<v Speaker 1>was it was usual paid by Tony. I'm paid by

0:19:03.600 --> 0:19:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Tony Kan again, so that's good.

0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:09.440
<v Speaker 4>So uh got to be paid by seven bucks soon.

0:19:10.080 --> 0:19:11.840
<v Speaker 1>They don't pay you in the interview for one of

0:19:11.840 --> 0:19:17.080
<v Speaker 1>those things. So the the SmackDown show, Collision got killed,

0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:21.480
<v Speaker 1>the rampage was down, and SmackDown going head to head

0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:27.080
<v Speaker 1>with Collision was up. Okay, two point two million viewers

0:19:27.160 --> 0:19:32.280
<v Speaker 1>up at half a percent, and the eighteen to forty

0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:35.439
<v Speaker 1>nine they were actually have almost ten percent from the

0:19:35.440 --> 0:19:39.440
<v Speaker 1>week prior with collision competition, so a point six y

0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:51.000
<v Speaker 1>two statistically. Statistically, zero SmackDown viewers watched AW and a

0:19:51.160 --> 0:19:55.480
<v Speaker 1>small number of AW viewers watched SmackDown. So that's the

0:19:55.760 --> 0:19:56.600
<v Speaker 1>that's the head to head bat.

0:19:56.800 --> 0:19:59.919
<v Speaker 4>Maybe some NXT viewers came over to pad SmackDown just

0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:01.360
<v Speaker 4>the stick it to collision.

0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Now, I will say the collision number, I mean that

0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:09.800
<v Speaker 1>is I believe bad basically the bottom of the barrel.

0:20:10.119 --> 0:20:12.719
<v Speaker 1>You think, I think it's well, here's why I think, okay,

0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:17.560
<v Speaker 1>because the the quarter hours for that show were like

0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 1>a razor straight line practically, so it's like nobody tuned in,

0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:24.560
<v Speaker 1>nobody tuned out. It was just X number of people,

0:20:24.680 --> 0:20:26.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, around two hundred and seventy thousand tuned in.

0:20:27.040 --> 0:20:29.040
<v Speaker 1>They watched the whole show start to finish, and that

0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:32.119
<v Speaker 1>was that. So that's your bottom of the barrel for

0:20:32.200 --> 0:20:35.280
<v Speaker 1>aw collision on a Friday night, and probably for rampage

0:20:35.400 --> 0:20:36.600
<v Speaker 1>close to rampage as well.

0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:41.760
<v Speaker 4>To under eight thousand, that's their diest hard television viewers

0:20:41.840 --> 0:20:45.160
<v Speaker 4>just the same way that for the all intents and purposes,

0:20:45.160 --> 0:20:47.439
<v Speaker 4>we'll see what happens here with full gear. But what

0:20:47.520 --> 0:20:50.560
<v Speaker 4>about one hundred and forty five thousand. I forget what

0:20:50.600 --> 0:20:53.000
<v Speaker 4>the averages, but it's like they're around the same as

0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:56.080
<v Speaker 4>far as no matter what the TV does, no matter

0:20:56.119 --> 0:20:58.600
<v Speaker 4>what happens, this is how many people are going to

0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:01.399
<v Speaker 4>come out and buy our paper. It's well over one

0:21:01.440 --> 0:21:04.800
<v Speaker 4>hundred thousand. You might remember the number better than I do,

0:21:04.960 --> 0:21:07.399
<v Speaker 4>but you know they have a core there that is,

0:21:08.040 --> 0:21:10.560
<v Speaker 4>you know, unshakeable. Everybody's got one. We see it with

0:21:10.680 --> 0:21:13.159
<v Speaker 4>WWE what it is you know when he comes to

0:21:13.200 --> 0:21:15.439
<v Speaker 4>their TV shows or all we found was about what

0:21:15.800 --> 0:21:17.960
<v Speaker 4>one point two million people during the pandemic.

0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Now, I will say that I don't think you can

0:21:22.600 --> 0:21:25.400
<v Speaker 1>read much at all into the Collision number. You move

0:21:25.400 --> 0:21:27.520
<v Speaker 1>a show to a different day, you put it head

0:21:27.520 --> 0:21:30.040
<v Speaker 1>to head with SmackDown, it's going to get killed. But

0:21:30.119 --> 0:21:35.120
<v Speaker 1>I will say that Rampage number sucked because that's its

0:21:35.160 --> 0:21:39.080
<v Speaker 1>normal time slot on its normal day, and it was

0:21:39.440 --> 0:21:43.040
<v Speaker 1>the lowest total audience ever in the history of Rampage.

0:21:43.520 --> 0:21:46.359
<v Speaker 4>Well hour three of four too, which they did not

0:21:46.520 --> 0:21:48.960
<v Speaker 4>hype up. And I'm not I don't know what you

0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:51.120
<v Speaker 4>could really have done with it, and you sure people

0:21:51.119 --> 0:21:53.959
<v Speaker 4>would have poked fun at it. But you had four

0:21:54.000 --> 0:21:56.720
<v Speaker 4>hours of AW that night. You had two hours of

0:21:56.800 --> 0:21:59.240
<v Speaker 4>Collision going head to head with SmackDown, You had an

0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:01.800
<v Speaker 4>hour of ramp and you had an hour of the

0:22:01.840 --> 0:22:06.560
<v Speaker 4>pre show the AW full year, you know Barker show

0:22:06.640 --> 0:22:09.359
<v Speaker 4>that they had. You know, you could have done maybe

0:22:09.440 --> 0:22:11.639
<v Speaker 4>more with that. You could have had something where it

0:22:11.800 --> 0:22:17.280
<v Speaker 4>make it like old WCW slash NWA and have you know,

0:22:17.400 --> 0:22:20.919
<v Speaker 4>people interspliced throughout the show, doing some stuff. You know,

0:22:21.200 --> 0:22:23.959
<v Speaker 4>I maybe you could have made more out of it.

0:22:24.000 --> 0:22:25.480
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if it would have mattered or not,

0:22:25.640 --> 0:22:28.080
<v Speaker 4>but I don't know, maybe you could have got more

0:22:28.119 --> 0:22:29.040
<v Speaker 4>than three hundred thousand.

0:22:29.440 --> 0:22:32.760
<v Speaker 1>Say I'll say this about that Rampage number. That Rampage

0:22:32.760 --> 0:22:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Show was not a bad show at all. I liked

0:22:34.280 --> 0:22:36.720
<v Speaker 1>the show. Vinny liked the show a lot, but it

0:22:36.760 --> 0:22:40.720
<v Speaker 1>absolutely died. It was the third hour on a Friday night.

0:22:41.359 --> 0:22:45.439
<v Speaker 1>And before this new SmackDown deal was announced, you know,

0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:47.439
<v Speaker 1>there had been a lot of talk about what if

0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:49.960
<v Speaker 1>they did two hours on Fox and then an hour

0:22:50.040 --> 0:22:53.000
<v Speaker 1>afterwards on FS one, And I always thought, my god,

0:22:53.040 --> 0:22:55.400
<v Speaker 1>what a horrible idea. I mean, listen, if you're gonna

0:22:55.400 --> 0:22:57.200
<v Speaker 1>make money for it, whatever, I mean, that's a story

0:22:57.200 --> 0:23:01.080
<v Speaker 1>of raw. But from your you're gonna you're gonna go

0:23:01.840 --> 0:23:06.280
<v Speaker 1>from Fox at ten o'clock to f S one at

0:23:06.280 --> 0:23:09.960
<v Speaker 1>ten oh one. Okay, first off, you're gonna get cut

0:23:09.960 --> 0:23:12.760
<v Speaker 1>in half immediately, because it happens every time they go

0:23:12.800 --> 0:23:15.880
<v Speaker 1>to f S one. Second, you're adding a third hour

0:23:15.920 --> 0:23:18.160
<v Speaker 1>on a Friday night, which is we can see here

0:23:18.160 --> 0:23:20.880
<v Speaker 1>by the Rampage number. People don't want to watch three

0:23:20.920 --> 0:23:23.160
<v Speaker 1>straight hours on a Friday night, So you're you gonna

0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:25.840
<v Speaker 1>drop even worse. So what are we talking? You're gonna

0:23:25.880 --> 0:23:28.560
<v Speaker 1>get like two point two million from eight to ten

0:23:28.960 --> 0:23:32.280
<v Speaker 1>and then you know, eight hundred and fifty thousand at

0:23:32.520 --> 0:23:33.919
<v Speaker 1>ten to one. What are you gonna put on at

0:23:33.920 --> 0:23:37.320
<v Speaker 1>ten to eleven? Like a Roman reign segment, a big

0:23:37.359 --> 0:23:39.360
<v Speaker 1>main event or what are you gonna do? You're gonna

0:23:39.359 --> 0:23:41.720
<v Speaker 1>be smart. You're not gonna put anything valuable there because

0:23:41.760 --> 0:23:45.200
<v Speaker 1>nobody's watching it compared to Fox. But then no one's

0:23:45.200 --> 0:23:48.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna bother watching f S one cause it's like the

0:23:48.160 --> 0:23:53.480
<v Speaker 1>the you know, Black Sheep Hour, whatever you call it. So, yeah,

0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:55.520
<v Speaker 1>a horrible idea, and it's the same thing. You know,

0:23:55.640 --> 0:23:58.479
<v Speaker 1>all the discussions about Raw, you know what about uh

0:23:58.640 --> 0:24:01.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, I shouldn't say all the discussions because I

0:24:01.520 --> 0:24:03.600
<v Speaker 1>haven't heard a lot about this, but you know, putting

0:24:03.600 --> 0:24:05.680
<v Speaker 1>a couple hours of Raw and whatever and then another

0:24:05.760 --> 0:24:08.920
<v Speaker 1>on Amazon or something, horrible idea. It will die die

0:24:08.920 --> 0:24:11.919
<v Speaker 1>a death. So we'll see what happened to me.

0:24:11.920 --> 0:24:14.560
<v Speaker 4>You need to linear properties to do something like that,

0:24:14.760 --> 0:24:17.800
<v Speaker 4>especially if they're looking into doing you know, bringing back

0:24:18.880 --> 0:24:21.520
<v Speaker 4>something during the show. Remember when the app came out

0:24:21.560 --> 0:24:24.160
<v Speaker 4>and the network came out during commercials. You could switch

0:24:24.200 --> 0:24:26.400
<v Speaker 4>over to the app and do that sort of thing,

0:24:26.920 --> 0:24:29.719
<v Speaker 4>you know, if they find a partner, look if they

0:24:29.720 --> 0:24:32.240
<v Speaker 4>go to like a WBD And I'm just using them

0:24:32.240 --> 0:24:34.960
<v Speaker 4>as an example because they have True TV right there.

0:24:35.080 --> 0:24:37.840
<v Speaker 4>True TV is a perfect you know, you might be

0:24:37.880 --> 0:24:40.120
<v Speaker 4>able to get a bunch of people watching that would

0:24:40.119 --> 0:24:42.919
<v Speaker 4>be hot, much higher than what their usual number is.

0:24:42.960 --> 0:24:46.320
<v Speaker 4>But have it in conjunction with what's taking place on

0:24:46.440 --> 0:24:49.080
<v Speaker 4>another channel that you own on something else that Raw

0:24:49.119 --> 0:24:51.679
<v Speaker 4>would be on. But I want to throw this scenario

0:24:51.840 --> 0:24:55.239
<v Speaker 4>at you with hindsight being twenty twenty and how they

0:24:55.320 --> 0:24:58.639
<v Speaker 4>decided to go about doing the Max thing. Do you

0:24:58.800 --> 0:25:02.560
<v Speaker 4>think that they could have have done an angle similar

0:25:02.600 --> 0:25:04.320
<v Speaker 4>to what they did on the pay per view but

0:25:04.440 --> 0:25:07.159
<v Speaker 4>have it play out throughout the show and then have

0:25:07.240 --> 0:25:10.520
<v Speaker 4>some doubt going into the pay per view on Saturday.

0:25:10.640 --> 0:25:12.680
<v Speaker 4>Do you think that in hindsight or do you think

0:25:12.680 --> 0:25:15.240
<v Speaker 4>it just would have been wasted in those three hours

0:25:15.280 --> 0:25:16.240
<v Speaker 4>going up against smack.

0:25:16.440 --> 0:25:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Well, they did a good angle at the end of Rampage,

0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:21.280
<v Speaker 1>but I certainly would have not gone off the one.

0:25:21.520 --> 0:25:23.440
<v Speaker 1>I would not have gone off the air on Rampage

0:25:23.440 --> 0:25:25.680
<v Speaker 1>saying we might not get an MGF match on Saturday.

0:25:26.160 --> 0:25:29.240
<v Speaker 1>That would have been madness.

0:25:28.280 --> 0:25:30.359
<v Speaker 4>Or we're gonna have the decision on what's going to

0:25:30.400 --> 0:25:34.200
<v Speaker 4>take as okay, I was just wondering if you could

0:25:34.200 --> 0:25:37.320
<v Speaker 4>have weaved through those three hours though, and made it

0:25:37.320 --> 0:25:39.639
<v Speaker 4>where you actually had some drama. You know you're getting

0:25:39.680 --> 0:25:41.879
<v Speaker 4>a title match, but what's going on with m JF.

0:25:42.640 --> 0:25:44.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, you don't know you're going to a title match

0:25:44.840 --> 0:25:45.400
<v Speaker 1>because of the.

0:25:47.119 --> 0:25:49.400
<v Speaker 4>I know, but you do you do a story where

0:25:49.440 --> 0:25:52.000
<v Speaker 4>you leave it open, where something is gonna give Jay

0:25:52.040 --> 0:25:54.320
<v Speaker 4>White's gonna have that title. We're not just gonna let

0:25:54.359 --> 0:25:56.439
<v Speaker 4>you hand it over. We're gonna come up with something.

0:25:56.520 --> 0:25:59.159
<v Speaker 4>But you again, you built it because that.

0:25:58.880 --> 0:26:02.080
<v Speaker 1>That that does terrible numbers historically when people don't know,

0:26:02.280 --> 0:26:05.280
<v Speaker 1>like what's the main event going to be or whatever.

0:26:05.840 --> 0:26:09.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, listen, here's people were so mad. The people

0:26:09.600 --> 0:26:12.600
<v Speaker 1>who had bought the pay per view were so mad

0:26:13.080 --> 0:26:14.679
<v Speaker 1>at the idea that they weren't going to get that

0:26:14.720 --> 0:26:15.200
<v Speaker 1>main event.

0:26:15.440 --> 0:26:18.200
<v Speaker 4>Wait, some people were. In fact, you played those people

0:26:18.240 --> 0:26:19.320
<v Speaker 4>out for thinking that.

0:26:19.280 --> 0:26:21.359
<v Speaker 1>And here's what people did think. That is the point.

0:26:21.440 --> 0:26:24.560
<v Speaker 1>But so don't tell people before they bought the show

0:26:24.600 --> 0:26:25.960
<v Speaker 1>they may not get a main event because the ain't

0:26:25.960 --> 0:26:26.479
<v Speaker 1>gonna buy it.

0:26:26.840 --> 0:26:29.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but they told them that. In that case, then

0:26:29.119 --> 0:26:32.240
<v Speaker 4>they you could argue that they told them that on Saturday,

0:26:32.320 --> 0:26:34.359
<v Speaker 4>right before the pay per view, that all this junk

0:26:34.480 --> 0:26:36.879
<v Speaker 4>is taking place, and now we may not get MJF

0:26:36.960 --> 0:26:38.760
<v Speaker 4>on it. To me, I don't think it would have

0:26:38.840 --> 0:26:42.719
<v Speaker 4>mattered because I don't think historically AW is doing the

0:26:42.760 --> 0:26:46.480
<v Speaker 4>same consistent numbers almost no matter what. And it was

0:26:46.520 --> 0:26:49.200
<v Speaker 4>a risk to do. But frankly, what they did during

0:26:49.240 --> 0:26:52.000
<v Speaker 4>the show was a risk. They actually have that show

0:26:52.080 --> 0:26:54.720
<v Speaker 4>long storyline and on a pay per view. That was

0:26:54.720 --> 0:26:56.560
<v Speaker 4>a risky thing to do, and some people think it

0:26:56.600 --> 0:26:59.480
<v Speaker 4>paid off and some people didn't. So I don't know,

0:26:59.800 --> 0:27:00.920
<v Speaker 4>just different type of risk.

0:27:01.160 --> 0:27:04.080
<v Speaker 1>No, No, I think they shouldn't have done the storyline

0:27:04.119 --> 0:27:04.400
<v Speaker 1>at all.

0:27:05.000 --> 0:27:05.280
<v Speaker 4>I don't.

0:27:05.640 --> 0:27:10.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you can, you can attack, but certainly don't

0:27:10.160 --> 0:27:11.919
<v Speaker 1>tell people he's not going to be in the main event.

0:27:12.720 --> 0:27:16.119
<v Speaker 1>That's madness, even if he is. See, the thing is,

0:27:16.280 --> 0:27:19.800
<v Speaker 1>if you've already paid your money and they tell you

0:27:19.840 --> 0:27:21.919
<v Speaker 1>guy ain't gonna work the main event, but then at

0:27:21.960 --> 0:27:25.320
<v Speaker 1>the end he does, you didn't get ripped off. You

0:27:25.359 --> 0:27:27.760
<v Speaker 1>don't want to tell people before they pay their money

0:27:27.840 --> 0:27:29.359
<v Speaker 1>not gonna be the main event. We built it up

0:27:29.359 --> 0:27:31.200
<v Speaker 1>for a month, but you ain't gonna make it because people

0:27:31.200 --> 0:27:34.680
<v Speaker 1>actually won't buy, not in like gigantic numbers. But I

0:27:34.680 --> 0:27:36.879
<v Speaker 1>don't want to lose ten buys. I don't want to

0:27:36.920 --> 0:27:40.560
<v Speaker 1>lose any buys. I'm here to make money because then

0:27:40.640 --> 0:27:43.719
<v Speaker 1>you'd have no buys back in a moment Observer Live.

0:27:55.160 --> 0:27:58.479
<v Speaker 2>What's for dinner burgers after last week? No thanks?

0:27:58.800 --> 0:28:02.640
<v Speaker 9>Avoiding foods of diarrhea, gas, floating, stomach pain, or loose

0:28:10.240 --> 0:28:13.120

0:30:30.160 --> 0:30:31.520
<v Speaker 2>It's that obvious, huh.

0:30:31.560 --> 0:30:34.400
<v Speaker 3>I've tried so many lotions and creams, but I still

0:30:34.440 --> 0:30:35.280
<v Speaker 3>have symptoms.

0:30:35.680 --> 0:30:38.640

<v Speaker 6>the skin. Leaving you with those uncontrolled symptoms.

0:30:41.400 --> 0:30:43.240

<v Speaker 4>All right? A stupid thing that happens.

0:31:34.640 --> 0:31:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Whose fault is this?

0:31:36.080 --> 0:31:36.760
<v Speaker 4>Not mine?

0:31:37.040 --> 0:31:41.960
<v Speaker 1>All right? We got to talk about Raw, the Raw Report.

0:31:42.320 --> 0:31:44.719
<v Speaker 1>It opened up and Drew Macnar coming out, and this

0:31:44.720 --> 0:31:47.880
<v Speaker 1>guy cut a great promo because he is a classic

0:31:48.200 --> 0:31:52.959
<v Speaker 1>heel that thinks he's done nothing wrong. He said, everyone's

0:31:53.000 --> 0:31:56.800
<v Speaker 1>asking why Drew, Why I haven't changed one bit. I

0:31:56.840 --> 0:32:00.880
<v Speaker 1>haven't lied one time. I'm not lying now. If you're

0:32:00.880 --> 0:32:02.640
<v Speaker 1>a fan of mine, I don't have to explain myself.

0:32:02.720 --> 0:32:04.440
<v Speaker 1>If you turned on me, well you were never a

0:32:04.440 --> 0:32:06.400
<v Speaker 1>fan in the first place. I don't care about you guys.

0:32:07.240 --> 0:32:11.000
<v Speaker 1>Jay attacked me from behind time after time after time.

0:32:11.280 --> 0:32:12.920
<v Speaker 1>Last week, I looked him right in the eye and

0:32:12.960 --> 0:32:16.240
<v Speaker 1>I jumped him. And I'm sure Jay wants me to

0:32:16.240 --> 0:32:18.680
<v Speaker 1>say I'm sorry, but I don't remember one apology to

0:32:18.720 --> 0:32:23.640
<v Speaker 1>me or anybody that he screwed over. He says, So

0:32:23.880 --> 0:32:27.280
<v Speaker 1>why should I get over anything? My family I sacrificed

0:32:27.320 --> 0:32:30.720
<v Speaker 1>for years. I missed birthdays, I missed holidays, and it

0:32:30.800 --> 0:32:33.000
<v Speaker 1>clashed in the castle that was supposed to be my night,

0:32:33.480 --> 0:32:37.680
<v Speaker 1>and your family took everything from my family. So everyone's

0:32:37.680 --> 0:32:40.280
<v Speaker 1>asking if I joined the Judgment Day. Well the answer

0:32:40.360 --> 0:32:42.080
<v Speaker 1>is no, but I will be on their team at

0:32:42.120 --> 0:32:46.120
<v Speaker 1>Survivor Series because Rhea offered me something nobody else could,

0:32:46.520 --> 0:32:50.280
<v Speaker 1>and that is you. Jayuso in a cage. So j

0:32:50.480 --> 0:32:55.520
<v Speaker 1>comes out. He's all wacky, he's all eating, and he's

0:32:55.520 --> 0:32:57.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna go beat up Drew. But the Judgment Day shows

0:32:58.000 --> 0:33:01.880
<v Speaker 1>up and so outcomes Set, Sammy and Cody, and they

0:33:01.960 --> 0:33:06.280
<v Speaker 1>get in this giant brawl and Adam Pierce sends down

0:33:06.320 --> 0:33:09.480
<v Speaker 1>nerds to break it up, and he says, yes, Drew

0:33:09.600 --> 0:33:12.520
<v Speaker 1>is on team Judgment Day. You babyfaces, I need a

0:33:12.560 --> 0:33:14.920
<v Speaker 1>fifth member. By the end of the night, and by

0:33:15.040 --> 0:33:19.360
<v Speaker 1>nine o'clock we're gonna have a advantage match later. I

0:33:19.480 --> 0:33:23.720
<v Speaker 1>want to know who's on each team. And so Drew

0:33:23.800 --> 0:33:26.240
<v Speaker 1>steps up and stares down Jay and then they leave.

0:33:26.520 --> 0:33:31.600
<v Speaker 1>He also added no interference at the advantage match, or

0:33:31.680 --> 0:33:34.920
<v Speaker 1>that whoever throws the first punch you lose the advantage.

0:33:35.800 --> 0:33:41.840
<v Speaker 1>So Judgment Day's chatting, and pre says, Rhea, I don't

0:33:41.880 --> 0:33:43.480
<v Speaker 1>like the guy, but it was a good idea to

0:33:43.480 --> 0:33:46.400
<v Speaker 1>add Drew to this thing. But as the leader of

0:33:46.480 --> 0:33:50.120
<v Speaker 1>the Judgment Day, he says, remember last week he said

0:33:50.120 --> 0:33:52.080
<v Speaker 1>that and they got man. He goes, ah, it's just hot.

0:33:52.200 --> 0:33:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Didn't mean it. Well, he said it again, and he

0:33:55.200 --> 0:33:58.040
<v Speaker 1>says we should have discussed it, and she goes, well,

0:33:58.080 --> 0:34:02.280
<v Speaker 1>you know. So Price says, worry this guy. I want

0:34:02.280 --> 0:34:04.760
<v Speaker 1>to be in the advantage match, and Rhea says, well,

0:34:05.200 --> 0:34:08.120
<v Speaker 1>we should all discuss that as well. Let's wait for

0:34:08.200 --> 0:34:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Drew and we'll talk. My god, this next match, do

0:34:14.480 --> 0:34:21.239
<v Speaker 1>I have hours? It's Raquel and Naya, okay, So they

0:34:21.280 --> 0:34:24.440
<v Speaker 1>go back and forth for a while and Naya posts

0:34:24.440 --> 0:34:28.480
<v Speaker 1>her and starts working over her back. So now Raquel

0:34:28.520 --> 0:34:32.239
<v Speaker 1>has a bad back. So Raquel makes a comeback. She

0:34:32.360 --> 0:34:35.560
<v Speaker 1>hits the corkscrew spinning elbow she's won mini matches with,

0:34:36.840 --> 0:34:42.160
<v Speaker 1>but she doesn't cover. Instead, her brilliant plan is to

0:34:42.440 --> 0:34:48.600
<v Speaker 1>lift up Naya. She tries and she collapses, So that

0:34:48.680 --> 0:34:51.920
<v Speaker 1>was a stupid idea. So then Naya drags her to

0:34:51.960 --> 0:34:55.279
<v Speaker 1>the corner for the sit down splash. Raquel gets under

0:34:55.320 --> 0:34:58.680
<v Speaker 1>her and she decides I'm gonna try lifting her again.

0:35:00.520 --> 0:35:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Well you'll never guess. Nya squishes her a second time

0:35:05.560 --> 0:35:07.799
<v Speaker 1>and then it hits the sit down splash and pins her.

0:35:09.640 --> 0:35:14.120
<v Speaker 1>You could not be a dumber babyface. I mean, my god,

0:35:14.160 --> 0:35:16.879
<v Speaker 1>I was watching this smash and then as bad as

0:35:16.920 --> 0:35:21.520
<v Speaker 1>the story was making, Raquel just look like a fool.

0:35:21.760 --> 0:35:25.160
<v Speaker 1>So when Naya goes up for the uh for her

0:35:25.200 --> 0:35:29.520
<v Speaker 1>finish the Anaya later get it, Raquel's gonna go under

0:35:29.640 --> 0:35:32.400
<v Speaker 1>and get her up on her shoulders. Okay for a

0:35:32.440 --> 0:35:36.040
<v Speaker 1>power bomb. Well listen, all I gotta do, Naya is

0:35:36.080 --> 0:35:38.680
<v Speaker 1>put your feet on the middle ropes so she can

0:35:38.760 --> 0:35:43.680
<v Speaker 1>get under you and lift you. Instead. As soon as

0:35:43.920 --> 0:35:46.279
<v Speaker 1>Raquel gets under her, Nia just takes both of her

0:35:46.280 --> 0:35:49.680
<v Speaker 1>feet off the ropes and so you gotta watch Raquel,

0:35:50.080 --> 0:35:53.160
<v Speaker 1>she almost kills herself trying to get Nya up on

0:35:53.200 --> 0:35:56.160
<v Speaker 1>her shoulders and literally all Nya had to do was

0:35:56.200 --> 0:35:58.160
<v Speaker 1>help her a little bit by putting her feet up.

0:35:58.200 --> 0:36:01.200
<v Speaker 1>But no, so she em here killed her for real,

0:36:01.719 --> 0:36:05.160
<v Speaker 1>and then she killed her in storyline. This was a disaster.

0:36:05.640 --> 0:36:09.080
<v Speaker 4>I believe WinCE. I'd like to blame Vince. I have

0:36:09.160 --> 0:36:11.640
<v Speaker 4>to blame Vince, even if it's somebody else there. I'm

0:36:11.680 --> 0:36:14.080
<v Speaker 4>blaming Vince for the fact that Naya came back and

0:36:14.280 --> 0:36:18.839
<v Speaker 4>absolutely positively does not help anyone in the division at all. Yes,

0:36:19.000 --> 0:36:21.719
<v Speaker 4>you need a giant, you need somebody unique, well where

0:36:21.760 --> 0:36:24.280
<v Speaker 4>cal Rodriguez is pretty unique. And I have a feeling

0:36:24.320 --> 0:36:26.479
<v Speaker 4>this is going to end with her body slaming Naya

0:36:26.560 --> 0:36:29.600
<v Speaker 4>and getting a victory. But I mean, come on, come on,

0:36:29.760 --> 0:36:32.120
<v Speaker 4>of all people, Naya, come on.

0:36:32.400 --> 0:36:34.680
<v Speaker 1>Drew showed up to me with a judgment. Day Pre

0:36:34.880 --> 0:36:40.440
<v Speaker 1>says he's the leader. He wants the advantage match. Drew says, no, no, no,

0:36:40.800 --> 0:36:42.839
<v Speaker 1>I've got to go out there and take out jay Us,

0:36:43.640 --> 0:36:46.320
<v Speaker 1>and so Pre says, fine, I want the match. It's yours.

0:36:46.719 --> 0:36:49.719
<v Speaker 1>Show your worth, go get us the advantage, and Drew

0:36:49.800 --> 0:36:53.319
<v Speaker 1>says that's leadership. So then Seth says he wants Drew

0:36:53.360 --> 0:36:55.160
<v Speaker 1>and Jay says no, if Drew's in the ring, I

0:36:55.239 --> 0:36:58.000
<v Speaker 1>want him, And so they finally all agree it's Jay

0:36:58.000 --> 0:37:00.520
<v Speaker 1>and Drew for the advantage and say he says will

0:37:00.520 --> 0:37:03.719
<v Speaker 1>have been his fifth member. He says, you know, I

0:37:03.760 --> 0:37:06.440
<v Speaker 1>hear that. You know, SmackDown guys are not off limits.

0:37:06.440 --> 0:37:09.360
<v Speaker 1>He wants Kevin obviously, but Cody says, I have an

0:37:09.400 --> 0:37:12.960
<v Speaker 1>old friend I could call, which, by the way, in

0:37:13.000 --> 0:37:15.640
<v Speaker 1>storyline is should we get the guy that's wrestling regularly

0:37:15.760 --> 0:37:17.080
<v Speaker 1>or should we get the guy that's been out for

0:37:17.120 --> 0:37:20.440
<v Speaker 1>eight months with a broken back? M well, let's do

0:37:20.520 --> 0:37:20.879
<v Speaker 1>that guy.

0:37:21.120 --> 0:37:23.759
<v Speaker 4>Well, he's the son of Dusty. He likes big surprises.

0:37:24.920 --> 0:37:29.640
<v Speaker 1>Becky Lynch and Zaia Lee this match when it first started,

0:37:30.040 --> 0:37:32.879
<v Speaker 1>it's like people like Becky, but they don't care one

0:37:32.920 --> 0:37:36.120
<v Speaker 1>bit about Zia. And every time Zia got the heat,

0:37:36.280 --> 0:37:38.759
<v Speaker 1>it was absolutely dead quiet in his building. But you

0:37:38.800 --> 0:37:43.319
<v Speaker 1>know what, they worked, and they kept working, and they

0:37:43.360 --> 0:37:46.520
<v Speaker 1>worked their asses off and by the end the crowd

0:37:46.600 --> 0:37:49.799
<v Speaker 1>was into it and they were popping for the near

0:37:49.840 --> 0:37:52.920
<v Speaker 1>falls there at the end, and then finally Becky avoids

0:37:52.960 --> 0:37:56.919
<v Speaker 1>a kick man handles slam pinser turned into a very

0:37:56.920 --> 0:38:00.040
<v Speaker 1>good match, and then afterwards damage Control comes through the

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:04.040
<v Speaker 1>crowd and Charlotte shot seeing Bianca. Russian Big brawl breaks out.

0:38:04.320 --> 0:38:08.160
<v Speaker 1>Adam Pearson's out security to break it up. Vinci and

0:38:08.239 --> 0:38:12.800
<v Speaker 1>Kaiser meet. Kaiser was given control over Vinci by Gunther,

0:38:13.280 --> 0:38:15.480
<v Speaker 1>so he says stay back here, do not come out.

0:38:15.680 --> 0:38:18.200
<v Speaker 1>I got this handled. So he goes out to face

0:38:18.280 --> 0:38:22.440
<v Speaker 1>Johnny Gargano and sure enough, here comes Vinci. Kaiser gets distracted,

0:38:22.440 --> 0:38:23.680
<v Speaker 1>tells him to get the hell out of here. He

0:38:23.719 --> 0:38:25.880
<v Speaker 1>gets hit with a kick. One final beat, he gets pinned.

0:38:27.239 --> 0:38:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Vinci shrugs. Kaiser's furious. Pierce is talking to Piper and Chelsea.

0:38:34.320 --> 0:38:35.719
<v Speaker 1>A bunch of teams show up. They all want a

0:38:35.760 --> 0:38:38.440
<v Speaker 1>title shot. He signs a multi person match, and then

0:38:38.480 --> 0:38:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Maxine and Ivy wander in. I don't know what they want,

0:38:41.760 --> 0:38:44.280
<v Speaker 1>and he goes, oh, let me guess you wanted to match. Fine,

0:38:44.320 --> 0:38:47.439
<v Speaker 1>you're in, and I was like, well, actually we and

0:38:47.520 --> 0:38:53.160
<v Speaker 1>Maxing goes shoosh, she wants the match. Now I'm not

0:38:53.160 --> 0:38:57.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna do it, do it? I have pride Zoe. He

0:38:57.680 --> 0:39:00.160
<v Speaker 1>cut a promo on Rhea and then yes, it is

0:39:00.160 --> 0:39:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Ivy and Maxine, Naddy and Tigan, Caden and Katana and

0:39:03.560 --> 0:39:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Indian Candace and a four way for the title shot.

0:39:07.440 --> 0:39:10.680
<v Speaker 1>And like when the match began, I was like, this

0:39:10.760 --> 0:39:13.880
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be horrible, okay, And as I look at it,

0:39:13.920 --> 0:39:17.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm not quite sure why, because you know, Ivy does

0:39:17.680 --> 0:39:20.600
<v Speaker 1>a good job, Natty's good, Tigan's good, Caden and Katan

0:39:20.640 --> 0:39:24.000
<v Speaker 1>are a good team, and Candace is good. It's only

0:39:24.080 --> 0:39:26.960
<v Speaker 1>Maxine and Indy that I was really worried about. Dude,

0:39:27.160 --> 0:39:32.600
<v Speaker 1>But fans love Maxine. Everything they did, everything she did,

0:39:32.600 --> 0:39:33.040
<v Speaker 1>they were.

0:39:32.920 --> 0:39:34.320
<v Speaker 4>Into a cartoon.

0:39:34.480 --> 0:39:37.560
<v Speaker 1>She is a total cartoon and I love her because

0:39:38.000 --> 0:39:43.160
<v Speaker 1>she gives it two hundred percent, like two hundred percent.

0:39:43.239 --> 0:39:46.240
<v Speaker 1>She gives this a gimmick. And finally the end, Tigan

0:39:46.360 --> 0:39:49.200
<v Speaker 1>rolled through a Maxine high cross pinder and so yes

0:39:49.280 --> 0:39:52.080
<v Speaker 1>next week Tigan and Natty versus Piper and Chelsea for

0:39:52.160 --> 0:39:53.240
<v Speaker 1>the tag team type.

0:39:53.000 --> 0:39:55.720
<v Speaker 4>Who added nothing on commentary?

0:39:55.960 --> 0:39:59.919
<v Speaker 1>Nothing No, they did not gunthrough Rana, Kaiser and Vinci.

0:40:00.080 --> 0:40:04.600
<v Speaker 1>He is very very upset. It's Kaiser. He says, maybe

0:40:04.600 --> 0:40:06.160
<v Speaker 1>I put the wrong guy in charge.

0:40:06.880 --> 0:40:07.120
<v Speaker 4>Now.

0:40:07.160 --> 0:40:10.759
<v Speaker 1>He says, watch how I go handle this. Mis So

0:40:10.920 --> 0:40:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Pierce meets with about fifty teams backstage and he says,

0:40:14.800 --> 0:40:17.400
<v Speaker 1>next week, you're all in tag team turmoil, and then

0:40:17.400 --> 0:40:20.760
<v Speaker 1>he runs anal that says, we gotta have a confort conversation.

0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:24.560
<v Speaker 1>I guess also a confrontation, but we had a confrontation

0:40:25.000 --> 0:40:29.200
<v Speaker 1>with the Miz and Gunther. Am I going to hell

0:40:29.280 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 1>or what? I can't wait for Gunther to kill this guy.

0:40:32.640 --> 0:40:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Miss is out there and he talks about how he's

0:40:35.080 --> 0:40:40.480
<v Speaker 1>got nothing but respect for this business. Yes he is.

0:40:41.440 --> 0:40:44.920
<v Speaker 1>Gunther comes out says, Mike, let me kill it. Clarify,

0:40:45.400 --> 0:40:47.560
<v Speaker 1>it's not I lack respect for you. I just have

0:40:47.800 --> 0:40:48.880
<v Speaker 1>zero respect for you.

0:40:49.120 --> 0:40:50.440
<v Speaker 4>I've heard from you before.

0:40:50.560 --> 0:40:53.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand this. You don't understand this ring is sacred,

0:40:53.400 --> 0:40:56.400
<v Speaker 1>it's for fighting and competition. You are nothing but an entertainer.

0:40:57.400 --> 0:40:59.800
<v Speaker 1>And miss Well, I don't know if you guys remember

0:40:59.840 --> 0:41:02.120
<v Speaker 1>this or not, but he was on the real world

0:41:02.480 --> 0:41:06.160
<v Speaker 1>and never once was he wearing a Randy Savage, Rick Rude,

0:41:06.320 --> 0:41:09.680
<v Speaker 1>Mister Perfect, Sean Michaels, or Brett Hart shirt. It was

0:41:09.880 --> 0:41:14.279
<v Speaker 1>only Hulkamania shirts that he wore. He claims, I just

0:41:14.560 --> 0:41:22.520
<v Speaker 1>loved these these wrestlers, these Intercontinental Championship entertainers. I wanted

0:41:22.520 --> 0:41:27.040
<v Speaker 1>that title. He says. The reason we talk about those

0:41:27.120 --> 0:41:29.440
<v Speaker 1>guys is they were in a one note robot like you,

0:41:29.520 --> 0:41:33.279
<v Speaker 1>and Gunther laughs. He says this is quite cute. And

0:41:33.320 --> 0:41:36.719
<v Speaker 1>then Miss goes, I've been knocked down time and time again.

0:41:37.239 --> 0:41:43.560
<v Speaker 1>I've reinvented myself. I was like, what, You're the exact

0:41:43.800 --> 0:41:45.080
<v Speaker 1>same Miss.

0:41:44.719 --> 0:41:46.120
<v Speaker 4>It was on the real world.

0:41:47.040 --> 0:41:51.040
<v Speaker 1>You've done anything but reinvent yourself. Do you think he's Jericho?

0:41:51.960 --> 0:41:54.040
<v Speaker 4>He says a minute.

0:41:54.360 --> 0:41:58.160
<v Speaker 1>He says, we're gonna find out Sunday. I'm gonna climb

0:41:58.200 --> 0:42:01.600
<v Speaker 1>that anyway. He's talking about this, and Gunther's just sea

0:42:01.719 --> 0:42:05.080
<v Speaker 1>sick of this guy, and he goes, little Mike muzzanin,

0:42:05.480 --> 0:42:08.720
<v Speaker 1>You're just a little weirdo that got bullied in high school.

0:42:09.120 --> 0:42:11.279
<v Speaker 1>You pursued a career and you finally got to the

0:42:11.320 --> 0:42:14.080
<v Speaker 1>big time, and what happened? They bullied you here as well,

0:42:14.280 --> 0:42:16.439
<v Speaker 1>and he goes, you know what, I don't think you've

0:42:16.440 --> 0:42:23.080
<v Speaker 1>been bullied enough. Fans are chatting USA fall things, and

0:42:23.120 --> 0:42:25.640
<v Speaker 1>so he starts bullying the miss do something about it,

0:42:26.239 --> 0:42:28.719
<v Speaker 1>and so Mis punches him, and Gunther boots him right

0:42:28.760 --> 0:42:32.000
<v Speaker 1>in the face and kills him, and I'm like God,

0:42:32.840 --> 0:42:35.600
<v Speaker 1>and then he finally lifts his up or whatever. Mis

0:42:35.719 --> 0:42:39.839
<v Speaker 1>hits a desperation low blow hits the skull crushing finale,

0:42:40.320 --> 0:42:42.319
<v Speaker 1>and Michael Cole screams, do.

0:42:42.400 --> 0:42:43.759
<v Speaker 4>It for all us weirdos.

0:42:43.880 --> 0:42:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Miss I'm team Gunther. Yeah, okay, just making sure.

0:42:52.360 --> 0:42:52.600
<v Speaker 4>Yes.

0:42:56.360 --> 0:42:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Then we had to knock Himer and Chad Gable. Great match,

0:43:00.239 --> 0:43:02.440
<v Speaker 1>I say great, but it was really good. They had

0:43:02.480 --> 0:43:06.640
<v Speaker 1>some excellent wrestling early and Chad Gable's awesome. Him and

0:43:06.719 --> 0:43:10.239
<v Speaker 1>Nakamura it was good stuff. And then Gable tried to

0:43:10.280 --> 0:43:13.680
<v Speaker 1>cradle Knackamer, sat on him, pinned him. We still don't

0:43:13.719 --> 0:43:15.040
<v Speaker 1>know who Knackamura is calling out.

0:43:15.160 --> 0:43:16.800
<v Speaker 4>Didn't sit down him like Night would.

0:43:16.560 --> 0:43:19.640
<v Speaker 1>But he wants somebody. They didn't hurt him or make

0:43:19.680 --> 0:43:25.680
<v Speaker 1>it difficult. Ibar kind of promo on Bronson. I can't wait.

0:43:25.840 --> 0:43:28.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll skip Survivor series. I just want to watch Ibar

0:43:28.440 --> 0:43:33.160
<v Speaker 1>and Bronson next week. And then Drew McIntire Jay user

0:43:33.200 --> 0:43:39.600
<v Speaker 1>for the Advantage. So Cole and Wade are arguing. Cole

0:43:39.640 --> 0:43:42.320
<v Speaker 1>says Drino drucid. He never got an apology, but just

0:43:42.360 --> 0:43:45.560
<v Speaker 1>a few weeks ago, Jay apologize to Sammy. Wade goes,

0:43:45.960 --> 0:43:49.680
<v Speaker 1>Sammy is not Drew. He said, show me one time.

0:43:49.800 --> 0:43:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Ever find the footage that Jay said I'm sorry to

0:43:53.600 --> 0:43:59.319
<v Speaker 1>Drew McIntyre and Michael Cole mutters revisionist history, and he goes,

0:43:59.560 --> 0:44:03.080
<v Speaker 1>what are you talking about? These are just facts. Find

0:44:03.120 --> 0:44:07.520
<v Speaker 1>me one time. So they're doing this match and uh,

0:44:08.400 --> 0:44:11.359
<v Speaker 1>Drew cuts him off, goes for the clay more. Jay

0:44:11.440 --> 0:44:15.640
<v Speaker 1>hits a jumping super kick. He goes up top, Drew

0:44:15.680 --> 0:44:22.080
<v Speaker 1>grabs him, hits the Future Shot pins him. What I mean,

0:44:22.480 --> 0:44:25.799
<v Speaker 1>I was fine with a clean finish, but man, they

0:44:25.920 --> 0:44:29.400
<v Speaker 1>jobbed out jay Uso. Here you guys complaining about Jay

0:44:29.400 --> 0:44:32.800
<v Speaker 1>White should be complained about jay Uso. I got pinned

0:44:32.800 --> 0:44:35.239
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of the ring clean in an advantage

0:44:35.280 --> 0:44:39.000
<v Speaker 1>match with Future Shot DDT. So that everyone shows up

0:44:39.040 --> 0:44:40.640
<v Speaker 1>big brawl, you know, the whole deal.

0:44:41.080 --> 0:44:44.239
<v Speaker 4>Well and jay Uso though, when Cody was saying all

0:44:44.280 --> 0:44:46.680
<v Speaker 4>of this stuff, had a really weird look on his

0:44:46.800 --> 0:44:49.319
<v Speaker 4>face because there's somebody else he's never apologized too.

0:44:49.600 --> 0:44:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he was not happy about Randy Orton being chosen,

0:44:52.239 --> 0:44:55.800
<v Speaker 1>but Randy was chosen. He'll be there on Saturday, folks,

0:44:56.080 --> 0:44:59.839
<v Speaker 1>and so I well afterwards Wrestling.

0:44:59.640 --> 0:45:00.360
<v Speaker 4>Upper Line, it's.
