WEBVTT - WWE Survivor Series 2024 Thoughts 0:00:01.440 --> 0:00:03.760 We love Seamus and this was going to be match 0:00:03.760 --> 0:00:05.880 of the night. I felt like from Jump Street or 0:00:05.880 --> 0:00:08.600 at least the one that would steal the show war 0:00:08.640 --> 0:00:10.840 Games too. It's just too crowded to ever be a 0:00:10.880 --> 0:00:13.800 match of the night. There's so many stories. It's almost 0:00:13.840 --> 0:00:16.040 like a mini Royal Rumble. You have to tell multiple 0:00:16.079 --> 0:00:18.720 stories within the match, So this is just one story 0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:22.320 with these three men. I think everybody knew brown Breaker 0:00:22.400 --> 0:00:23.880 was going to win this match. Again, this was a 0:00:23.960 --> 0:00:27.360 really easy, easy pay per view to pick winners on. 0:00:33.720 --> 0:00:40.520 And now you're mad it Introducing the hosts Wrestling Win Freddy, 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:45.680 Chef Died and for ready friends, Junior. 0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:49.480 Good morning, good day, good evening, good night, whatever time 0:00:49.520 --> 0:00:52.320 you're listening, Welcome back to Wrestling with Freddy. Thank you 0:00:52.560 --> 0:00:54.480 very much for all the love you've been given to 0:00:54.520 --> 0:00:57.720 the show. Thank you for helping this show grow so quickly. 0:00:58.280 --> 0:01:02.200 And just with with all the love that you guys 0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:05.240 have given us, it makes my bosses happy, which means 0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:07.560 I get to stick around. But I'd have stuck around 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:09.520 even if they fired me. I'd have found another way. 0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:11.680 I really enjoyed doing this. I'm coming to you from 0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:14.360 Sydney for the final time. I will be back in 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:17.480 the States next week, so I'll be coming back live, 0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:20.040 so there won't be any more of me missing wrestling, 0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:21.959 although we didn't miss that much. We just shut down 0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:24.600 for Thanksgiving. I'm glad you guys are with us. If 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:29.160 you watched Full Gear. We will address Full Gear and 0:01:29.200 --> 0:01:32.920 the results on the Thursday show unsanctioned. But you already 0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:37.039 know how well your boy did You already know that 0:01:37.120 --> 0:01:39.920 if you need to make money on any of these apps, 0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:42.600 you go with Freddie. You don't go with Jeff. You 0:01:42.680 --> 0:01:44.760 occasionally go with Alex if you want to make some 0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:47.160 good money, but if you want, like to make money 0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:51.360 at a seventy percent clip, at least, you go with 0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:55.080 your boy Freddie p Anyway, let's talk some wwe First, 0:01:57.840 --> 0:02:01.000 we're going to talk Survivor series, Old School pay per view. 0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:05.760 We were in the Great White North. We were in Canada, Vancouver, Canada, 0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:09.000 where we shot the second Scooby Doo and where I've 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:12.280 shot about fifty other friggin movies. We can get into 0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:15.079 that on on sanctioned Thursday, too, like why Nothing Shoots 0:02:15.120 --> 0:02:17.160 in America and tax breaks and all that stuff. If 0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:19.080 you guys find that stuff interesting. Let us know on 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:22.200 socials and if you think it's boring as hell, guess what, 0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:25.040 we won't talk about it. But anyway, let's get right 0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:28.800 into Survivor series. Sold out crowd, not a hot crowd. 0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:33.040 It was. It didn't sound sold out. They were very, 0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:36.280 very quiet. They were into what they were into, but 0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:41.320 it wasn't like a Toronto crowd. Toronto is hot. They 0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:44.320 sometimes cheer the bad guys and boo the good guys 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:46.600 every once in a while, but they get really really 0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:49.079 excited for us. And I think Vancouver's kind of used 0:02:49.120 --> 0:02:51.359 to wrestling and they have a lot going on over 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:53.760 there as far as entertainment and things to do, so 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:56.320 maybe it's just not as hot there. But they sold 0:02:56.320 --> 0:03:00.160 the building out, so you can't talk any shit. Here 0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:03.360 we go. The ladies started the show with war games. 0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:06.640 There were a few. The match was kind of weird. 0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:10.280 It was cool, but it's live TV, so I know. 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:12.400 Chris Jericho says there's no such thing as a botch 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:14.400 because it's live TV, right, you just go with it, 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:16.680 and I like that philosophy, but some of these kind 0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:18.919 of took you out of the match because you just 0:03:19.000 --> 0:03:22.160 wanted to make sure somebody was okay, but they still 0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:25.720 did some awesome spots. Eosky is still the truth. Everybody 0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:29.040 looked awesome. This was It was a pretty easy one 0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:30.560 to call if you were calling it. We didn't get 0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:32.600 to We were down last week, so we didn't get 0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:35.840 to pick them. Although I will say even Jeff could 0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:37.960 have picked all the winners. Jeff's not here so I 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.560 can talk shit about him. Even Jeff could have picked 0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:42.480 all the winners For this card, I thought this was 0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:45.720 probably the easiest cart of the year, easiest cart of 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:48.400 the podcast to call. And I seriously doubt any of 0:03:48.400 --> 0:03:51.160 you got any of these matches wrong. That said, Ria 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:55.440 Ripley's team won. They're the best, She's the best. Bianca 0:03:55.480 --> 0:04:01.280 bell Air, Bailey, Naomi and Eosky versus Living Naya Jacks. 0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:05.120 Naya Jacks, Raquel Rodriguez, who got handcuffed at some point 0:04:05.440 --> 0:04:07.560 during the match. They weren't having They were sick of 0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:09.600 dealing with her shit, so they cuffed her so that 0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:12.680 she couldn't protect Live Morgan anymore. They had Tiffany Stratton, 0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:15.160 who thought about a cash in dirty. They're not going 0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:18.320 to be bros much longer. We had Cannis Larray as 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:20.600 well in the match Cannis Larra and her team, they 0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.919 got their booties beat and yeah, reals seen one after 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:26.919 some crazy sort of off the cage moments like EO 0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:29.600 and all that stuff. Eosky is just so sick, man. 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:34.160 I watched randomly. I think it was on YouTube, or 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:36.080 might just been a clip that a friend sent me 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:40.040 of EO down in Lucha Underground, and I hadn't seen 0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:44.560 that match. She was wrestling a dude. It was sick, 0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:48.239 and she's sick, and I freaking love Eosky. Real Ripley 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:51.799 is still my number one, but Yo, you're gaining on her. Girl, 0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:58.680 You're gaining on her. Now, let's move on shins Ke Nakamura. Now, 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:01.440 if you know me at all, you know that I 0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:04.760 love Japan. I love anything Japanese. If it's not Japanese, 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:07.599 it's just not as cool as if it were. I 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.000 drive Japanese car. Oh you guys, by the way, a 0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:13.599 little side quest for you, the sixty nine dots in roadster. 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:19.480 It's ready, she's ready, she's done. There was a fracture 0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:23.000 in the clutch disc, but that's fixed. That's put back in, 0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:24.880 and I'm gonna start posting pictures of her on my 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:27.679 social media soon. Alex I think has already seen a picture. 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:29.719 If not, I'm gonna send it to him in between shows. 0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:34.560 But she's ready. She looks great. She's cherry red convertible. 0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:36.960 I got the hood off right now because it's summertime. 0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:40.080 Well in California, it's always summertime, but it's hot. The 0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:42.520 hood's been off. She's just been chilling and purring, and 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:45.320 pictures will be posted soon. I love Japanese cars. You 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:47.240 guys have probably seen if you don't follow me on 0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:50.240 social media, it's real Freddie Prinz on Instagram. That's the 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:52.919 only social media I have. Sometimes I post pictures of 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:55.400 my cars. But my two eight Z is on there. 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:58.840 That's from nineteen seventy six. It's all original, minus the transmission, 0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:01.440 which we swapped out a four speed to a five 0:06:01.480 --> 0:06:03.560 speed so I could actually go on the freeways without 0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:07.159 the engine exploding. And that's an awesome, awesome car. But 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:10.479 this roads through you, guys, you're gonna see me and 0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:13.280 the wife cruising to the beach, cruising on a date. 0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:15.680 Hot dates when we get a sitter for the kids. 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:19.960 That doesn't happen very often anymore, but you guys will 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:21.719 see that coming out soon. It's a hot car. I 0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:24.640 love everything Japanese. Maybe that's why I like Io and 0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:27.640 Hincek more than every other wrestler in the world. But yeah, 0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:28.960 and I lived there when I was a little kid 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:30.640 because my mom was a chef up there, so there's 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:32.840 a little history, but I was a baby. Don't run 0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:44.320 shins k nakamorro versus l A Night. Yeah, and if 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:46.040 Jeff was here, he'd throw his hands up the way 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:49.840 La throws his hands up. So anyway, first, let's talk 0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:52.200 about before we get into the results, let's talk about 0:06:52.200 --> 0:06:54.880 the LA Night run. Because I heard from some of 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:58.280 my buddies they were bummed out on the title run 0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:01.160 that LA Knight had. They said it wasn't significant enough. 0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:04.599 They would have liked to have seen higher level dudes 0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:08.080 wrestling for that title. I think people are sleeping on 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:10.920 Escobar because I feel like him in La Knight. Although 0:07:10.960 --> 0:07:14.320 Ali is obviously better on the microphone than Escobar right now, 0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:18.080 but it's also escobar second language, which he speaks beautifully. 0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.040 They were saying they were a little disappointed in the 0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:21.720 title run of l A Night. Here's where I would 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:25.120 kind of push back on that. He never needed that belt. 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:31.680 He didn't need it. He's too over. There's certain people 0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:34.560 who don't. Kevin Owens does not need a title. He's 0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:38.800 Kevin friggin Owen's. He's awesome on the microphone, He's awesome 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:41.600 in the ring. He's got the crowd wrapped around his finger. 0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:44.400 He can literally do anything he wants in there. Does 0:07:44.400 --> 0:07:46.600 this sound familiar? Does this sound a lot like La Knight? 0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:50.239 It should. He can do no wrong in the eyes 0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:53.280 of the public. The only time people complain are when 0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:55.240 these guys lose a title because they're like, oh, why 0:07:55.280 --> 0:07:58.280 they lose? So I think I understand why, because you 0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:01.200 want your favorites to be champions. But let's take out 0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:04.760 our want for a second and just look at it objectively. 0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:09.800 Titles are meant to help talent look great. That's that's 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:13.560 their sole function is to help talent look great. If 0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:15.760 you're the if you're the Champ of Champs, if you're Cody, 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.880 you're representing an entire brand in the corporate era, obviously 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:20.960 since since they went public in the way that that 0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:24.880 John Cena had to, but it's still the same thing. 0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:31.240 Like the belt is to assist the wearer of the belt. 0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:33.600 Sorry for lack of a better term, the wearer of 0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:36.440 the Belt for Ady Jesus. But yeah, Eli Knight, I 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:38.960 never thought needed it. And I've said this on the podcast. 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:41.520 You can go back on earlier episodes and see that. 0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:43.800 And I've said this about Kevin Owens as well. There's 0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:47.240 just certain guys and certain girls that are so freaking 0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:50.680 good in every facet of the game. Like MJF does 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:53.080 not need a title. It's awesome when they have them, 0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:56.680 but they can tell you stories that make you feel 0:08:57.160 --> 0:08:59.720 whatever it is they're fighting for is just as important 0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:03.520 as a world championship. Christ Drew McIntyre and Seampunk fought 0:09:03.520 --> 0:09:06.480 over a bracelet that had his dog's name on it. 0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:10.360 Come on, man, the last time they did a dog storyline, 0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:16.280 the friggin' not one man gang, the cop who's the 0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:19.439 cop character, the Big boss Man, The Big boss Man 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:21.960 was feeding dog food. Dal Snow was like the last 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:24.480 time they did a doggy storyline and the no that 0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:26.400 did not work. They'll be like, yeah, that was awesome. 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:30.400 It was not awesome, But yeah, you don't need a title. 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:34.320 The title is more a crutch, not a crutch, it's 0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:37.040 like a leg up. It's your friend giving you a 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:39.200 boost to climb a wall you could climb on your own, 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.120 but he's going to help you get over it quicker. 0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:46.120 So there's no disappointment for me. Anyway, when a guy 0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:49.040 like l A. Knight loses a belt or wins a belt, 0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:52.040 there's no I don't get like, yeah, okay, he finally won, 0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:56.600 like he's the man already, whereas Jinseke can really benefit 0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:59.440 from having the US title. He's had it before. Now, granted, 0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:03.160 let's have the caveat that you always have to book them, right, Okay, 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:05.240 that goes That should go without saying, but we're going 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:07.120 to say it just so that nobody goes ude. But dude, 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:10.200 they book it like you. So as long as they 0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:11.920 book it right. Cool, And I don't think they have 0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:14.839 with Shinsky in the past. However, with him coming back 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:17.760 and if he's able to stay healthy, this can be 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:21.200 a heel champion that people are having to climb a 0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:23.920 mountain to get to and he's willing to cheat to 0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:25.840 win where our good guys won't, so you can. And 0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:29.439 since there's so many more babyfaces than heels on the roster, 0:10:29.559 --> 0:10:33.880 whether it be SmackDown or raw, I don't it's it's 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:37.000 so heavily dominated by by baby faces. I think Seth 0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:39.520 rollins Is even spoken about this in an interview, saying 0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:42.120 how they need more heels. They got a couple, but 0:10:42.200 --> 0:10:43.880 he you know, you'd like it to be a bit 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:47.040 more balanced. Now you have one. Even though everybody loves 0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:49.400 shins K and even though he looks awesome, but you 0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:51.760 have a heel champion who can go in there and 0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:54.600 do the dirty things that make the crowd boo and 0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:57.240 get the responses that you want so other people can chase. 0:10:57.240 --> 0:10:59.480 But I love shinza k as a champion. I love 0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:01.120 it when he has gold around his waist. I like 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:03.040 him more as a bad guy than a good guy. 0:11:03.400 --> 0:11:05.079 I don't think he needs to climb the mountain. I 0:11:05.120 --> 0:11:07.400 think he needs to be the mountain. And I love 0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:09.720 what they're doing with him, and I hope they continue 0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:11.839 to book it well. But they had an awesome match. 0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:14.160 They got all their stuff in you know, la and 0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:16.400 Knight's an older guy and some of the stuff he 0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:18.920 does in there makes me nervous when they're doing you know, 0:11:19.000 --> 0:11:21.680 backflips off the top rope and land him. But he's 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:23.680 a sick athlete, so I guess it's no big deal 0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:26.000 for him. It's a big deal watching it though, But 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:28.480 this was an awesome match. I really enjoyed it and 0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:32.160 I love to finish. I thought it was great moving 0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:41.280 on Braun Breaker, Braun friggin breaker, y'all, the champ versus Ludwig, 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:44.400 who has been stepping it up. He's good on the mic, 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:46.600 he's good in the ring, He's got a cool character 0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:49.720 that has some good unique motivation, with Gunther telling him, hey, 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:51.079 you got to step it up on your own. I 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:53.560 can't always be carrying the weight and him sort of 0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:56.760 taking that to heart and forcing himself into this triple 0:11:56.800 --> 0:11:59.360 match with the third member, Seamus, who we know and 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:05.400 love the Big Irish. I was gonna call him the 0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:07.920 big Irish bastard, but Pock's the bastard, so he can't 0:12:07.920 --> 0:12:10.400 call them that. We love Seamus and this was gonna 0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:12.520 be match of the night. I felt like from Jump 0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:14.720 Street or at least the one that would steal the show. 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:17.640 War Games is too It's just too crowded to ever 0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:20.320 be a match of the night. There's so many stories. 0:12:20.320 --> 0:12:22.440 It's almost like a mini Royal Rumble. You have to 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:24.840 tell multiple stories within the match, So this is just 0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:28.680 one story with these three men. I think everybody knew 0:12:28.800 --> 0:12:30.680 bron Breaker was going to win this match. Again, this 0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:33.800 was a really easy, easy pay per view to pick 0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:36.679 winners on. There's money to be made. I gotta start 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:39.920 using these apps. I gotta download me some DraftKings and 0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:43.320 start making that money myself. But yeah, everybody knows bron 0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:46.520 Breaker won the match. It was tons of fun. This 0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:48.839 was I felt like the hottest the crowd got was 0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:51.920 during this match, because I don't know, triple threats are 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:54.800 just awesome, I guess. But even though the odds were 0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:58.960 stacked against him, Brown Breaker was going to Netflix with 0:12:59.040 --> 0:13:01.600 a belt around his way. He wasn't gonna be climbing 0:13:01.640 --> 0:13:05.080 mountains when he got there. He is the mountain. So yeah, 0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:10.600 so we got the awesome triple threat there. Let's move on. Well, 0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:14.800 now we're gonna move on. We'll talk more about about 0:13:14.800 --> 0:13:17.960 brown Breaker in January when they make the move, because 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.400 I feel like that's when his stories will get a 0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:22.959 little bit better and more consistent. I feel like they're 0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:25.400 gonna try to wrap some stories up for Monday Night 0:13:25.520 --> 0:13:27.959 Raw and then kind of start a new look, sort 0:13:28.000 --> 0:13:30.280 of like a like a new season in a television 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:32.360 show when they go there, and the January six show 0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:34.439 should be huge. They should have some re debuts of 0:13:34.520 --> 0:13:36.760 people that have been gone for a long time. I'm 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.960 anticipating that, some special surprise guests and things like that. 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:41.959 It should be an awesome show. I bet they probably 0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:44.280 do three hours too, if that hasn't been announced already. 0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.520 I know they've been doing two, but maybe they'll go 0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:48.920 back to three just to squeeze everyone in there. But 0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:53.439 let's get to the World Heavyweight Championship with Gunther versus 0:13:53.520 --> 0:14:01.160 Damian Priest, the Brigua Tampion Tampion. The end of this match, 0:14:01.320 --> 0:14:05.599 I guess we can get into but Damian Priest is 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:09.719 freaking awesome and I won't just leave it at that. 0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:17.160 When you're watching a match, there are a lot of 0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:21.440 wrestlers out there who have awesome move sets, can really 0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:24.920 really sell. They can all tell a story in there. 0:14:26.400 --> 0:14:31.600 But it's rarer, not as rare as maybe I'm making 0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:33.800 it sound. It's rare when you have someone who can 0:14:33.840 --> 0:14:38.520 tell sort of multiple stories in a match. Damian Priest's 0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:42.360 story was the shoulder and the way he sold this 0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:44.640 shoulder pain and the way Gunther stayed on it and 0:14:44.680 --> 0:14:48.040 attacked it This is where we get into next level wrestling, 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:51.400 where it's not just moves in a match, but it's 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:53.800 a real story and you can follow it. It's almost 0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:57.560 like a scripted movie right where the protagonist, our hero, 0:14:57.840 --> 0:15:00.680 the babyface, has an injury in the back guy sees 0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:02.560 it and starts picking on it, like those old Jackie 0:15:02.640 --> 0:15:06.480 Chan martial arts movies, all the Michelle Yo movies. Right 0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:08.520 anytime they saw like an injury, that's what the bad 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:10.800 guy would go after. And the story of this match 0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:13.640 was the shoulder. Sean Michael's probably the greatest at this 0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:17.200 on both sides of it, attacking the injured limb and 0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:20.320 having the injured limb. I've never seen anybody do it 0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:24.160 better than him. But these guys were incredible, and the 0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:26.480 shoulder was the story of the match, and it was 0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:31.520 such a good story, and Damian Priest made you believe 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:34.800 in his comebacks so much that I didn't think it 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:39.080 needed any outside interference. I felt Judgment Day interference would 0:15:39.080 --> 0:15:42.600 be sort of the last chapter that we already read 0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:44.720 and not a chapter that we were reading. But they 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:47.040 went another way and they brought Finn Balor in near 0:15:47.080 --> 0:15:49.000 the end of the match and he hit him with 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:52.200 his koudou gras off the steps, which isn't as impactful 0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:54.400 as when it's off the top turn bocal, so I 0:15:54.440 --> 0:15:56.760 didn't I wasn't nuts about that either, and he nails 0:15:56.800 --> 0:15:58.640 Damian Priest with it, and then he gets kicked in 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:01.000 the face for interfering with the man because Gunther's like, 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:02.920 YadA adra, help you, son of a bitch, get out 0:16:02.920 --> 0:16:06.720 of here, kicked him in the face, throws Damien back 0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:09.120 in the ring, gets him with this like modified sleeper 0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:11.680 hold where he takes the injured arm up behind his 0:16:11.760 --> 0:16:14.040 head and then gets the sleeper on, and Damien goes 0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:17.120 to sleep man and he lost the freakin match. And 0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:19.400 the announcers had been saying, you know, if he loses, 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:21.240 he goes back to the beginning of the line. You know, 0:16:21.320 --> 0:16:23.560 he can't. He won't be the number one contender anymore. 0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:28.560 So apparently we're gonna get the destruction of Finn Balor 0:16:29.240 --> 0:16:31.320 or maybe the destruction of Damien Priest. I don't know. 0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:33.440 I would assume that it's the destruction of Finn Balor 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:36.400 to keep Damien strong, but that can be the only 0:16:36.440 --> 0:16:39.640 explanation is that what I thought was settled beef is 0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:43.400 unsettled beef. It's uncooked beef, it's raw, it's beef tartar 0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:45.640 and they got to cook it up more. But we 0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:47.800 want our stakes medium rare, not well done. You don't 0:16:47.800 --> 0:16:51.320 want to overcook it. And this stuff between him and 0:16:51.320 --> 0:16:54.480 Finn Balor right now anyway, at least in that moment 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:58.480 felt overcooked and unnecessary. Kind of took away from the 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:01.080 match a little bit. Crowd wasn't into it, that was 0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.200 for sure, But we'll see where they go with it. 0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:05.119 I mean, look, Finn Balor is one of the greatest 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:09.800 wrestlers in the world. He's the first second Universal champion 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:11.560 I believe maybe was it the first or second when 0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:14.480 he jacked his shoulder up with seth rollins. Anyway, they 0:17:14.480 --> 0:17:16.399 can give you a great match, there just has to 0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:19.119 be enough story for us to care about it because 0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:22.240 it won't be for a championship. So that's when that's 0:17:22.240 --> 0:17:26.120 why championships help, right, they assist. They take a lot 0:17:26.119 --> 0:17:28.560 of story away. The story is I want your belt now, 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:30.639 the story has screw you. You screwed me out of 0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:34.560 the belt again, and now they have to have some 0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:37.480 blowoff fight, which I'm sure it will be great, but yeah, 0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:39.240 it was. It was a weird moment in the match, 0:17:39.760 --> 0:17:47.600 a very strange moment there was they actually got a 0:17:47.600 --> 0:17:50.840 we love Goonther or let's go goon Thro, Let's go priest. 0:17:50.920 --> 0:17:53.160 That chance started. That was I think probably the only 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:56.159 chance of the entire pay per view, and the priests 0:17:56.200 --> 0:18:00.280 chants were stronger. But people love Goonther. They love him, 0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:03.399 our show loves him. It's it's good and bad, I 0:18:03.400 --> 0:18:06.320 guess when the bad guy gets love. But he's not 0:18:06.440 --> 0:18:08.199 so much a bad guy as he really is. The 0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:13.240 ring General, the ring General or n errol as they say. 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:16.200 But yeah, man, it was. It was a solid match 0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:19.879 that could have ended any anyway. I just didn't need interference. 0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:22.760 So we'll move on to the main event, because this 0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:25.440 is all you guys want to hear about anyway. War 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:31.240 Games the original Bloodline Roman reigns. Sammy z Ain, the 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:36.760 honorable One, the Ussos and c M Punk who was 0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:39.960 brought into this group not because he's a member of 0:18:39.960 --> 0:18:43.080 the bloodline. He's not. He's not Samoan, He's not he's 0:18:43.119 --> 0:18:47.479 not from Canada like Sammy's Ain French Canadian. But Paul Hayman, 0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:50.520 the wise Man, who was very necessary in this story, 0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:52.960 the bloodline story is just the best thing in wrestling, 0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:57.359 and he calls him in on an episode of SmackDown, 0:18:57.359 --> 0:18:59.720 which you could all watch and see. I was gonna say, 0:19:00.080 --> 0:19:01.639 not everybody gets to see the pay per views, but 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:03.440 they're not pay per views anymore. If you have Peacock 0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:05.960 you get to see it, or if you stream illegally, 0:19:06.040 --> 0:19:08.960 you get to see it. But Paul Hayman knew that 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:13.360 they couldn't beat Solo Soka and this new bloodline on 0:19:13.400 --> 0:19:15.439 their own, that they had to have one more person. 0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:19.080 The Numbers game was just kicking their ass. Roman Rains's 0:19:19.160 --> 0:19:23.000 ego was kicking their ass. You know, Jimmy Usso dragging 0:19:23.040 --> 0:19:27.040 his feet to accept Jay Usso, Yeah, I was getting 0:19:27.040 --> 0:19:29.879 their ass kick. Jay not wanting to work with Roman, 0:19:29.920 --> 0:19:32.600 that was getting their ass kick. They needed the wise Man, 0:19:32.640 --> 0:19:35.119 and the Wise Man said we need one more, we 0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:39.000 need CM Punk. Well, these two Roman reigns and see them. 0:19:39.040 --> 0:19:41.880 Punk didn't always get along and even in the War 0:19:41.960 --> 0:19:45.040 Games match, and again this is telling multiple stories in 0:19:45.800 --> 0:19:48.960 one match, which is important. But he just like when 0:19:49.000 --> 0:19:51.880 he gets called to the ring, pushes right by Roman Rains. 0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:55.560 He's so disrespectful and the announcers put that moment over huge. 0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:57.800 They're like, yo, what's that man? He just showed up 0:19:57.880 --> 0:20:00.440 Roman Raids. That was a great moment, but there wasn't 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:02.639 even a wrestling hold and I popped for that. I 0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:05.680 was like, yo, he just pushed right by it. So anyway, 0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:09.560 during the match, Bronson, Oh, that's what got a name. 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:13.080 Name the other team too, Freddy the New Bloodline, which 0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:17.080 is Solo Socoa or as jeff Dy says, Sequoya still 0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:22.280 not sure what, Jacob Fatu, the Werewolf, Toma Tonga, Tongo Loa, 0:20:22.480 --> 0:20:25.639 and big Ass Bronson reed, which is just big Bronson 0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:29.159 reed it should be big Ass Bronson reed on Monday 0:20:29.240 --> 0:20:32.240 Night Ball he was going to do his finisher, which 0:20:32.280 --> 0:20:34.840 is the tsunami, off the top of the freaking cage. 0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:36.560 And a part of me was like, he's not gonna 0:20:36.600 --> 0:20:38.880 do They're gonna have something that brings him down. There's 0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:40.600 no way, no he is. He's going to jump off. 0:20:40.880 --> 0:20:43.760 But anyway, he was gonna kill Roman Reigns. Romans laying 0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:46.800 on a table, alt cold Bronson, Reid's about to kill 0:20:46.840 --> 0:20:49.360
