00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:57,920

28
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 3: This is their their New Year party. You know, you

29
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,960

30
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 1: Uh huh.

31
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 4: But first, well, we'll talk about a little bit of

32
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 4: news events leading up to the Rumble.

33
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: And did you hear.

34
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 4: About this about NBC Sports are going to shut down at.

35
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: The end of the year.

36
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 6: Have you all got here about this? This is Jesus

37
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 6: for me.

38
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 4: Yes, So the NBC Sports Network will totally just quit

39
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 4: at the end.

40
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: Of twenty twenty one, which was the Wall Street Journal

41
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: said on Friday.

42
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 4: This is like fresh new news. Battle actually texted me

43
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 4: about this because.

44
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: I did not know about it. Breaking news.

45
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 4: So NBC will be moving some of the sports programs

46
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 4: to the USA Network, which includes the NHL.

47
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 7: Which normally comes on Wednesday night. And you know what

48
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 7: else comes on Wednesday night and that's NXT. So it

49
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 7: is in jeopardy.

50
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: I know, I made that very dramatic, So we'll see

51
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: what happens.

52
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 4: I guess the NBC network just doesn't perform that well,

53
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 4: and so they're moving all some of those shows to

54
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 4: the USA network, which already is pretty high performing. They're

55
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 4: hoping I'll give it another little boost, but I guess,

56
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 4: you know, and We're all's on there as well. But

57
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 4: 'raw already does well on its own. But you know,

58
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 4: with the next team being on at the same time

59
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 4: as AEW, they don't get as many viewers as AEW does.

60
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 3: So I wonder if this will make them possibly change

61
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 3: the days of some of the shows, or if this

62
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 3: might push them to move towards putting things on their network,

63
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 3: because the WWE does have their own network, so this

64
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 3: could wait. This could be a way to boost the

65
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 3: ratings on the network too.

66
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: I think that would be awesome.

67
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 4: You know, I watch a You religiously every week, which

68
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 4: means I'm not watching NXT.

69
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: I would love to watch it live, but I'm just.

70
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 4: Not switching back and forth because it's like it's too much,

71
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 4: too tedious.

72
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 6: You know what I mean, and watching it at the

73
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 6: same time it's so stressful.

74
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I'm like, what happened here and happened there?

75
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 4: It's like, I don't know, It's like when AEW does

76
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 4: the picture in picture could you imagine if you could

77
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 4: watch both of them just in the same screen, like

78
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 4: two blocks, that would just be too much.

79
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 3: For me that I wouldn't throw another set of eyes

80
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 3: because I wouldn't be able to focus.

81
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:37,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's that's some breaking news. And there hasn't

82
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 4: really been anything else said about this, so I guess

83
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 4: we'll just see what happens.

84
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: Best of luck to NXT. You know they find uh,

85
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 1: they find their way.

86
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 6: Yes, let's let's pray.

87
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 4: I must pray, putting the good vibes out there. And

88
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,160
Speaker 4: speaking of NXT, the first ever Women's Dusty Rose Tag

89
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 4: Team Classic is underway, and yeah, this is very exciting.

90
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 4: The bracket has been revealed and real quick, here's who

91
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 4: we have as tech teams.

92

Speaker 1: Got Candicelray and Andy Hartwell no shocker there.

93
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, we've got Okay, Gigi Dolan, Priscilla Kelly and Coora

94
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 4: Jane Alaina, who's aka Elena Black. I'm familiar with Priscilla,

95
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 4: not as much Elena, but very interesting.

96
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 1: Interesting to see. You know, we've seen Priscilla.

97
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 4: I guess she she wrestled on the Cruise Ship I

98
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 4: guess last year. But yeah, good to see her on

99
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 4: n X. T then you've got Shatzi black Heart in Bermoon.

100
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 4: Marina Schaffier, Am I saying that right? Scheffer Schapier, I'm sorry.

101
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 4: I always messed U up.

102
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 6: I always just wing it.

103
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm sorry if I messed that up.

104
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 4: And Zoe Stark, Mercedes Martinez and Tony Storm, Casey Canton

105
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 4: Zarro and Katie Carter and Jesse Camilla and Dakota Ka

106
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:07,919
Speaker 4: and Raquel Gonzalez. So Beth Phoenix commenced the first ever

107
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 4: Tag Team Classic this past week, which gave me chills

108
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 4: because it's just so exciting to hit the spotlight on

109
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 4: women's more tag team women's wrestling.

110
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm right there with you.

111
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 3: I think the addition of Priscilla Kelly and Elena Black

112
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 3: because they just recently got signed. I think it was

113
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 3: like this week that they got signed. And I'm a

114
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 3: huge fan of Priscilla and Elena. Elena being from Chicago,

115
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 3: so that's already my home girl. I feel like she

116
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 3: lives for me. Who knows. I love it, yes, but

117
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 3: I'm super excited for them. They had their first women's

118
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 3: match on two O five Live, which was already historic.

119
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 3: Priscilla Kelly, I loved her in the May Young Classic.

120
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 3: I think it was in twenty eighteen the first time

121
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 3: I saw her, and since then we've seen her like

122
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 3: fight against Brett Baker, like you said, like on the

123
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 3: Cruise Ship, and I'm super excited for what's in store

124
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:01,720
Speaker 3: for them.

125
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 5: You know.

126
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 3: In NXT, they also signed a third new person. Her

127
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 3: name is Lacy Ryan, and that's Marina's tag team partner.

128
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 3: So I wonder how they're going to do because we

129
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 3: know Priscilla and Alena already got eliminated by Candice Lay

130
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 3: and Indy, so you know, we'll have to see. But

131
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 3: I'm so glad that NXT is taking the time to

132
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 3: really showcase their women and try to build up a

133
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:27,679
Speaker 3: women's tag team division.

134
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 4: I totally agree, and it's you know, just thank you

135
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 4: NXT for doing this. I really feel like, you know,

136
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 4: we've been talking about a possible Another Evolution pay per view,

137
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 4: and I really think it could happen post COVID.

138
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: I think, you know, they definitely want the fans out there,

139
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 1: but uh, I don't know. It just gives me hope,

140
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: you know what I mean.

141
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 3: It's like, we we ask so much of wrestling, and

142
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 3: especially with like the women. We want to see them,

143
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 3: you know, thrive. So I think the more women wrestling,

144
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 3: the better.

145
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: I totally agree.

146
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 4: And man, Kate and Carter and Casey just like, oh

147
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 4: my gosh, they did the damn thing as.

148
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 3: I don't know, we're all together, I don't know me.

149
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 3: They've been together for a while and they just vibe

150
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 3: off of each other. But I'm excited for them. They

151
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 3: could win it all exactly.

152
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: I think so too. And I mean Casey's finishing move

153
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: off the top rope, I was just like, my jaw

154
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: is dropped.

155
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 3: I was like, Oh my gosh, wasn't that insane?

156
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: Insane?

157
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 4: I just I can't even imagine like even attempting something

158
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 4: like that.

159
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 3: Oh dizzy, I would like my next four same.

160
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 4: And we saw EO attack Mercedes outside the ring, so

161
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 4: I'm seeing a little bit of a championship rivalry right there.

162
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 6: Maybe, Yeah, that's gonna be interesting.

163
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:53,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm here for that.

164
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 4: And I'm I'm happy for Mercedes, you know, being back

165
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 4: in NXT.

166
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: I think that's where she needs to be. And I

167
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: don't blame her one bit.

168
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 6: Leaving retribution, leave them and not look back.

169
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:07,839
Speaker 1: Exactly.

170
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 4: This is a little off subject, just a little tangent here.

171
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 4: But speaking of Retribution, I feel like Randy Orton looks

172
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 4: like he's a part of Ran of Retribution with that

173
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 4: fricking masco on.

174
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,319
Speaker 6: You know what, Randy looks like he can just blend

175
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 6: into whatever.

176
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 3: Do you remember when he was with Ray Wyatt for

177
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 3: a little bit and he just looks like he was

178
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,439
Speaker 3: a part of that team.

179
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,839
Speaker 6: So I would totally.

180
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 3: Buy him, you know, being the new leader of Retribution

181
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 3: and fighting with Ali for the power.

182
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, just do it, Vie or just join.

183
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 3: I was like watching that segment and I was so scared.

184
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 3: Are those real burns?

185
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 4: You know?

186
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 7: Right?

187
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 4: I know it's almost too much, but that's another that's

188
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 4: for the boys to talk about. And also let's see

189
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 4: Sasha Banks and I'm SmackDown this week.

190
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: That was entertaining.

191
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,680
Speaker 3: I think that was my favorite match of the night. Yes,

192
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 3: oh my god. I didn't expect it to be this good.

193
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 3: I thought we were going to get a little bit

194
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 3: of like you know, James Ellsworth when he fought against

195
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 3: Becky and just kind of just took it.

196
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 6: But Reginald was putting up a fight, yeah he did.

197
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: You know.

198
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,719
Speaker 1: It makes me wonder if we'll see more inner Genner wrestling,

199
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: I would hope so, man, Yes, I think that would

200
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: be so cool.

201
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 4: In a Carmela. I think she's shaken in her high

202
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 4: heels now and she saw Reginally get thrown over that

203
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 4: top rope.

204
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 6: Is in her red leather outfit, shaking right now.

205
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: Yes, yes.

206
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 4: And my last little bit of news, I just saw

207
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:51,719
Speaker 4: this like this morning. Uh. Bianca's WW Chronicles is up

208
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 4: now on the network and I'm so stumped.

209
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: I can't always see it.

210
00:10:58,400 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 6: Watch it tonight.

211
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 3: I saw a clip of it on Twitter and I

212
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,439
Speaker 3: was like, oh, I have to watch this.

213
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 6: I have to.

214
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 4: I know that queen, especially after seeing her carry Otis.

215
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's week. Oh god.

216
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 3: I couldn't even imagine carrying Chad Gable so both Bailey

217
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 3: and Banka.

218
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 4: Yes, I just imagine light fit where me and Otis

219
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 4: was climbing on my shoulders.

220
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,200
Speaker 1: I would instantly collapse underneath.

221
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 6: It exactly same.

222
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 1: Oh, Otis, we love you.

223
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 4: But that's it for my news, And I'm ready to

224
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 4: talk about the Rumble.

225
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: Are you ready? Oh?

226
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 6: Yes, one thousand percent woo.

227
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 4: So the twenty twenty one Royal Rumble, thirty superstars will

228
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 4: fight for the opportunity to go on to a World

229
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 4: Championship Challenge at WrestleMania thirty seven.

230
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: And here's who we have so far.

231
00:11:55,800 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 4: For the ladies, We've got Shana Basler, Alexa Bliss, Peyton Royce, Bianca.

232
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: Bell Air, Bailey, Charlotte Flair.

233
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 4: Nya Jacks, Mandy Rose, Dana brook To, Mina Live Morgan,

234
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 4: and Ruby Rhett.

235
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: So that's that's twelve. That's not even half of the

236
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: entrance so far. So yeah, that's one of the things

237
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 1: I love about the rumble. You don't know who is

238
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 1: gonna come down that ramp.

239
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 3: You know, when the first rumble for the women was announced,

240
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 3: my first thought was do we have enough ladies because

241
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 3: I don't think we have enough people, And that's when

242
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 3: they started involving you know, NXT, and that's when we

243
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 3: got to see our vets. And I think that that's

244
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 3: why I'm always more excited for the women's match now

245
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 3: than I am because I feel like, Okay, the man,

246
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 3: you have like five hundred men on the roster, so

247
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 3: it's like someone that you've already seen. But with the women,

248
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 3: there's so much possibility for them to bring back veterans

249
00:12:55,880 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 3: for the involvement because there aren't enough women. So I'm

250
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 3: just so excited about the possibilities for this because we've

251
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 3: seen Trish in the past and Leada, I've seen Molly

252
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 3: Holly come out a lot of you know, Shatzi I

253
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 3: think she had just gotten signed.

254
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 6: And a few months later in the World Rumble. So

255
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 6: I'm just so excited for this.

256
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,719
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, last year we saw Shatzi, Shana and Bianca.

257
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,439
Speaker 1: Naomi made her come back.

258
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 4: Man when her music hit, I just I just wanted

259
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 4: to I jumped.

260
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: Up, I got a dance so good. Yeah.

261
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 4: So I was doing a little bit of research to

262
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 4: see what people are predicting to being people that are

263
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 4: gonna win, and some of them are also rumored entrance

264
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 4: as well. But the number one most likely winner, according

265
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 4: to there's a website.

266
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:54,599
Speaker 1: It's called Evada.

267
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 4: It's an online sports betting site because you know how

268
00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 4: the bet on sports.

269
00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 6: Imagine betting on wrestling.

270
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: I know exactly.

271
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 4: The number one most likely winner is Ria Ripley. Oh, yes,

272
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 4: which I think would be very exciting since we're like,

273
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 4: we're waiting for her main roster call up.

274
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 6: That's true, Is she your pick to win?

275
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I don't know.

276
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 4: I think if I had to pick right the second,

277
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say yes.

278
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 6: Oh okay, I would have said someone else bold statement.

279
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 1: But I love the nightmare. Oh my gosh, that would

280
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: just be awesome.

281
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 6: Oh my goodness.

282
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 3: I think I would pick Bianca just because I think

283
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 3: it's really her time. Her chronicle just came out. She's writing,

284
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:49,040
Speaker 3: he just carried Otis on Friday. Yes, out and have

285
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 3: her win the rumble.

286
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: Yes, I love that that option too.

287
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 4: The next most likely winner, now here's the rumored instrant.

288
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 4: The number one entrance and the second one people are

289
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 4: betting on to win is Ronda Rowsey.

290
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 6: Oh my god, I.

291
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 3: Have not heard about Ronda Rousey so like this week.

292
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 3: Oh my god, possible entrant.

293
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 6: No, I be there.

294
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 4: No, if she you know, cool, if she wants to

295
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 4: be in the realmble, awesome, if she won the whole thing,

296
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 4: I would be so mad.

297
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 6: Oh my god.

298
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 3: It's not a good time when I watch Ronda. I mean,

299
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 3: it's not like like I have anything personal against her.

300
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 6: Maybe I do, you know, But.

301
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 3: I just think that she takes a lot away from

302
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 3: the women who are already there, So I think that

303
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 3: we don't need her there because we already have enough

304
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 3: talent on the roster. If she does come back, I'm

305
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 3: gonna be like, oh man, But you know, she's gonna

306
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 3: get the views. You know, those videos on YouTube are

307
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 3: going to get the views. So I would hope that

308
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 3: she doesn't. But I think McMahon loves Ronde.

309
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 6: ROUSI I know.

310
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,200
Speaker 4: I mean, we haven't seen her since Wrestman thirty five,

311
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 4: and it doesn't seem fair if she dropped in there

312
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 4: and then won everything. It's like, what about these other

313
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 4: awesome women that I've been.

314
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 1: Here for, you know, since she's been gone.

315
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, rude, rude exactly.

316
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 4: And plus you know, if you think about if Shane

317
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 4: is in there and then you've got Ronda and then

318
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 4: they kind of team up together. And I don't know,

319
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,640
Speaker 4: let's hope she doesn't come down. But what's her her

320
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 4: theme music?

321
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: I don't give. I don't want to hear that.

322
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 6: Okay, I don't want to hear it either.

323
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. The third is Shana Basler, So there you go.

324
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 6: I like Tana. I think she's she's a good pick.

325
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 3: I wouldn't mind if she won because I think she's

326
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 3: a really good character. She's really strong. We've since I

327
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 3: saw her do that double submission to who was it?

328
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 3: Sasha Bailey? Yes, yeah, God, I was like, well, I've

329
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 3: never felt more empowered.

330
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: Yes, you know, and her and Naya, I think you

331
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 1: know they're.

332
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 3: They're on their way out. Yeah, I'm thinking. I think

333
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 3: it's it's time for a new a new tag team.

334
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 3: They need to separate and just be on their own.

335
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 3: And I think it possibly could start here at the

336
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 3: Royal Rumble. We might see Shana eliminate Naya.

337
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that would be great.

338
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, this is where they could turn on each other.

339
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

340
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:37,280
Speaker 4: The last one is Alexa Bliss. With the way they've

341
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,439
Speaker 4: been using her lately, she could be a winner.

342
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 3: Listen, if she starts put putting people on fire in

343
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 3: this match, I don't even know what I'm gonna.

344
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 6: It's going to throw off my whole rumble.

345
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 1: I know.

346
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 4: I did love the little playground segments with her in Oscar.

347
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 3: Yes, those are so fun. I think a perfect fit

348
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,119
Speaker 3: for that character that she's playing.

349
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,879
Speaker 1: She is. It's just so it's so funny, but I

350
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:05,360
Speaker 1: love it.

351
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 4: And who knows, maybe the Fiend will make a comeback

352
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 4: at this room.

353
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 3: Could you imagine I'm seeing a lot of people say that, oh,

354
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 3: bray Wyatt might come out, but then also the Fiend

355
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 3: might come out, and just all these different characters that

356
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 3: he plays could come out.

357
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 6: And I'm like, oh, that's kind of fun because you

358
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 6: don't make fully today.

359
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: That's right, But dude, love and mankind. Yeah, Cactus Jack,

360
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: Oh that would be awesome. That would be so cool.

361
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 4: Well, I guess that Alexa could be a possibility, but

362
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 4: I'm also with you with Bianca because it's time for

363
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 4: her to shine.

364
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, or if they bring back Naomi too, like, yes,

365
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 3: more power to them.

366
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: Oh I miss Naomi. Yes, she also needs to shine too.

367
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 6: Yeah.

368
00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 4: Here's some other rumored entrance. And so we already talked

369
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 4: about Ronda Rowsey. These two ladies I'm not super familiar with.

370
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 1: But you may be more familiar with them than I am.

371
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 4: Tia val kyarriem oh hm, her husband is John Morrison.

372
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 1: That's interesting. I guess she's been on Luca Underground and Impact, But.

373
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 4: She is a rumor, so we shall see. And then

374
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 4: Tessa Blanchard, No too much. I feel like there's too

375
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,640
Speaker 4: much controversy still around her.

376
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 3: Yes, if anything, I would feel like maybe they would

377
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 3: let it die down. But who knows because you have

378
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 3: some controversial superstars on their rock right now.

379
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 5: So.

380
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 3: I think if between it, if it was between them,

381
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 3: I would take Tia any day.

382
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 8: Yes, crazy to think that Valentine's Day is upon us.

410
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 8: and sticking. I have an interesting story about that, but

411
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 8: I will save that for later. As a hamster a

412
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 8: pet store and a lady thinking I was stealing it.

413
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 8: Never did that, by the way. Also, the products smell really,

414
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 8: really good. The manly sent is attractive and will help

415

438
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 4: Other than that, I'm just speculating here. I think it's

439
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 4: too soon for Becky to come back.

440
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,119
Speaker 1: Too soon. Did you see that picture of her with

441
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:13,200
Speaker 1: her little baby?

442
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,679
Speaker 3: Oh I almost cried that just that little baby, just

443
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 3: so sweet, so like they put a picture of her

444
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 3: holding the belt next to a picture of her holding

445
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 3: the baby, and I'm like, oh my gosh.

446
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 4: Like, yes, I think Lacy will, Lacy Evans will poke

447
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 4: her head in.

448
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 6: I was asking low this the other day. Do you

449
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 6: think that Claire will get involved?

450
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: Oh? Man, I kind of hope not. That whole story

451
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 1: arc is just ridiculous.

452
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,359
Speaker 4: He might, though, I mean, who knows, what do you

453
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 4: what did y'all think?

454
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 3: I think maybe he could, and this is where Charlotte

455
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 3: would come in. But I also see Charlotte probably being

456
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 3: maybe like the top three to like, you know, be

457
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 3: in the Rumble because I feel like they wouldn't just

458
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,919
Speaker 3: bring her back to not have a belt, you know,

459
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,040
Speaker 3: to not have like a big part in WWE.

460
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 6: So maybe she could win the Rumble.

461
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,919
Speaker 3: Mm and she'd be the first person to win the Rumble,

462
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,439
Speaker 3: like the first woman to win it twice.

463
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she is the queen.

464
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 3: She is, and you know the Queen likes to wrack

465
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 3: up accolades, Yes she does.

466
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 4: I just don't want to see her, you know, fighting

467
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 4: with her father, that precious man.

468
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 6: She really yells at him.

469
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 1: Yes, I know.

470
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 4: I hate that Lacy get out of there, which reminds

471
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,719
Speaker 4: me here's another hot take that I had. What if

472
00:23:53,760 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 4: we get Billy Kay in the Rumble, then Billy are

473
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:04,120
Speaker 4: you know, I don't know one of them eliminates the other,

474
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 4: not that I want them to have more of a

475
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 4: divide than they already do.

476
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 3: Yes, maybe they'll work together some iconics, and I think

477
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:17,640
Speaker 3: Billy really needs to, you know, find herself. I feel

478
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 3: like the Rumble would also be a really good place

479
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 3: where she can prove that she doesn't need a tag

480
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 3: team partner.

481
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 6: She can eliminate people on her own.

482
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 3: And I don't see her winning, but I do think

483
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 3: that she could have like some really good moments in

484
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 3: the Rumble.

485
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:34,080
Speaker 4: Absolutely, that would be a great time for her to

486
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 4: make her her appearance known.

487
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 6: Yes, and I really hope she comes out like punk

488
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 6: rock like I love.

489
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 1: It so much.

490
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, maybe she could work with with the

491
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 4: Riot Squad because you know, you get so many tag

492
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,360
Speaker 4: teams in there that that band together to eliminate others.

493
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: So maybe the three of them.

494
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the Riot Squad has done it before when

495
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 3: they had you know, Sarah Logan. So that's three people

496
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,119
Speaker 3: in a match that you could really team up and

497
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 3: you benefit from.

498
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, absolutely, let's see. Uh some other Tory Wilson

499
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 4: was another rumored entrance.

500
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,959
Speaker 1: She uh huh, I would believe.

501
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, she retired in two thousand and eight, so it's

502
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 4: been a little while, but that would that would be

503
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 4: cool to see her.

504
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 1: I would love to see Leta again.

505
00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 6: Oh my god.

506
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:37,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, another queen. I would love to see Stephanie McMahon.

507
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 6: Oh what, Oh my god. If I hear Stephanie's music, I'm.

508
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: That music.

509
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 6: If I hear Rhonda, No, I hear Stephanie's music.

510
00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 4: I know I could just I could just see it now,

511
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 4: Ronda's music. Kidding and I just like throw something at

512
00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 4: my TV. No. But you know, they've been talking about

513
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 4: her comeback for so long. I mean, is it gonna happen?

514
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 4: I guess it's gonna happen eventually.

515
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 3: I mean I don't know, not today today, yes?

516
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: Oh man. Uh, here's another random one. And I really

517
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 1: doubt it that Bailey was joking about Kayla being a

518
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 1: part of the rubble.

519
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 6: I don't see Kayla.

520
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 1: It would be.

521
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 4: I was like trying to imagine her training for it

522
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 4: and taking some bumps.

523
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 1: But I'm like, don't don't do it, girl, You're so

524
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: pretty and I don't.

525
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 9: Want to get you.

526
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: No, girl, Oh girl, I did it.

527
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 6: I'm thinking about it.

528
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 4: Yes, do you have any any other ideas to throw

529
00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 4: out there?

530
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 6: Oh? Oh I think that.

531
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just more excited about the women's match than

532
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 3: I am the men's and even I think it, you know,

533
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 3: every other match on the pay per view I just

534
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 3: think is irrelevant compared to the women's and.

535
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 1: Watch some like and I want to be mad about it.

536
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: If they started off with the.

537
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 3: Women's you know what, if they started off with the

538
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,160
Speaker 3: women's rumble, that would save me a lot of.

539
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 1: Time, exactly.

540
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,199
Speaker 3: Okay, I can really focus on the women's and then

541
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 3: I'll watch the men's maybe, you know, or I'll catch

542
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 3: the highlights. But I think I'm always more excited about

543
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 3: the rumble than maybe wrestle me.

544
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, I totally agree with you.

545
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 4: I've talked about that with my mom because we're like, oh,

546
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 4: what pay per view do we want to go to

547
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 4: one day?

548
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 1: And we're always like, Royal Rumble would be the mom.

549
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:53,879
Speaker 6: Oh my god, that's so cute.

550
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 4: I should get her name is Lisa. I should get Lisa.

551
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 4: I'm here one day, Chad, she's the super fan.

552
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:08,640
Speaker 3: My mom only knows three wrestlers, and it's John Cena, Elias,

553
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 3: and Ricochet, Like those are her three.

554
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 4: I love it, yes, and Elias that's great she walks

555
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 4: with Elias.

556
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 6: We could all, you know, try to walk with Elias.

557
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 4: I know, Oh that's so awesome. Well, so we've also

558
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,880
Speaker 4: got Sasha and Carmela.

559
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 1: For the women's championship.

560
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 4: So I don't have too many thoughts on this, but well,

561
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 4: I guess I do.

562
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: You know, we've seen this before and it's like, what's

563
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: the point of it happening again? I don't know. I'm

564
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 1: getting this vibe that maybe Carmela is gonna win.

565
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 4: I want Sasha to win, but if we want Carmela

566
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 4: to go anywhere, I feel like this.

567
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: Is the time.

568
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 6: Yeah.

569
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 3: I think that since you know the Friday match that

570
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 3: we saw with Sasha and Reginald, I think, you know,

571
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 3: he could play a very big part in this match

572
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 3: because he could get involved. You know, there could be

573
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 3: some you know, distraction and next thing, you know, Carmelo's

574
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:11,440
Speaker 3: our new tamp.

575
00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: Yeah.

576
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 4: I know a lot of people would want to see that.

577
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 4: She's got like this little cult following.

578
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 6: He's very popular.

579
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:21,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, she is.

580
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's her podcast with Corey. She's

581
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 3: so super good on social media. So I do see

582
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 3: her being champion eventually. Do I see her dethroning Sasha?

583
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 3: Maybe not just yet, but we know Sasha doesn't have

584
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 3: the best rep in defending titles, right, What if we.

585
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: Got Cardi b On.

586
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 6: Coming up to her own song coming out to.

587
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 4: There would be no words basically, yes, but that would

588
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 4: be so awesome.

589
00:29:57,920 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 6: I don't know, that would be hilarious.

590
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 1: Yes, I do. I like Reginald. I like you know, Carmela,

591
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: she is with our Truth. Now she's got Reginald. It's

592
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,280
Speaker 1: you know, it's kind of a fun little partnership. So yeah, yeah,

593
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 1: I could totally see him interfering.

594
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 6: But you know, I don't know.

595
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: That's this is a tough one for me to call

596
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 1: because they could go either way.

597
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 6: It really could, and that's why it's so hard. But

598
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 6: like that's what's exciting.

599
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why I also, you know, love love it

600
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 4: because I don't know, I don't want to know.

601
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 3: I love surprises, yes, and we don't have enough surprises.

602
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 6: In the men's match.

603
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 3: You get like one surprise and it's just like, oh,

604
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 3: it wasn't stone Cold Steve Austin, I'm done.

605
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and uh not to mention Goldberg, Oh my god,

606
00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 4: why did I do this to us?

607
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 1: I really hope.

608
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 3: That Drew is is better on time, because I know

609
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 3: he had to quaranty, but like I expect a quarantine

610
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 3: for two weeks and then not have COVID anymore. I

611
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 3: don't know how that works exactly.

612
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 6: I mean.

613
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,800
Speaker 4: They're all good to go, I know, and from what

Speaker 1: I mean affects everybody differently, but I don't know.
