00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 2: How was your week? Big wrestling week? It was a

25
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 2: big wrestling week. Family was good. My son played some

26
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 2: flag football and had a sick juke that knocked that

27
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 2: made this kid knock himself over and everybody went, whoas

28
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 2: that little guy? Because my son's little, but he looked

29
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 2: like wark done out there this week and their team won,

30
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 2: So congratulations to the tiny Rams. They kicked some booty

31
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 2: this weekend. And other than that, I watched MJF and

32
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 2: Sammy Govar become best friends. And I watched the USOS

33
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 2: and Kevin and Sammy Pete living crap out of each other.

34
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: How about you, sir? How is your week? And weekend

35
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 2: felt good? I was in Indianapolis.

36
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 3: I watched It's funny because you know, I just said

37
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 3: big wrestling week. There there was some good wrestling stuff

38
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 3: that happened. But whenever it's one of these draft things,

39
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 3: there's not a lot of wrestling. It's a lot of

40
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 3: just drafting. And then we just got a lot of

41
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 3: tag matches. Yeah, they bring back these old guys to

42
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 3: come back. Hey, here's road Dog. He's gonna tell you

43
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 3: which one of the NXT people you've never heard of

44
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 3: is getting drafted. Yeah, but not trying to be negative. Still,

45
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 3: it was still a fun week of wrestling, just saying

46
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 3: it was a little you know, it was not as

47
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 3: exciting as it could be. And maybe that's because backlash

48
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 3: is coming up, you.

49
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 2: Know, Jeff No, I love the old guys. It was

50
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 2: a big week. The draft's always big to me working there.

51
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 2: The draft wasn't important to them. It was just a

52
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 2: way to move talent from the tape show to the

53
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 2: live show to see if they would sink or swim,

54
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: or if they wanted to give someone an opportunity. They'd say, hey,

55
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 2: so and so do you want to get off the

56
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 2: live show. We'll put you on SmackDown for a bit,

57
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 2: and I've worked out with their schedule. Then all of

58
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 2: a sudden, book that they get drafted. But it is

59
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 2: important in the regards in regards to who's getting a

60
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 2: chance on the main show, which is Monday night Raw, Right,

61
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 2: that's where opportunities are earned. That's where, like I said, before,

62
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 2: you sink or swim. Everything's scarier when it's live. It's

63
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 2: not harder, it's just scarier. Some people don't worry about

64
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: that fear and it motivates them and other people freeze up.

65
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: And you see that on Monday Night Raw, which is

66
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 2: one of the craziest things if you think about it,

67
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 2: in show business. No other television show puts people in

68
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 2: a situation where if they fail, it's over, unless they're

69
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 2: like the ultimate professional comedian right where they can improv.

70
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: But these are people that have been on TV sometimes

71
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 2: a matter of months, and all of a sudden they're

72
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 2: on Money to Night Raw and they have to remember

73
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 2: a promo that they didn't get a week with like

74
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 2: Saturday Night Live they got about thirty five minutes, and

75
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 2: it's so hard.

76
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 3: Courts like and that's always the part that's so impressive

77
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 3: to me. Also, like how perfect are they nailing it

78
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 3: or do they just kind of have to hit the

79
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 3: bullet points? Is it like a script where it depends? Man?

80
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 2: There were times where you know, the Powers that B

81
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 2: would say, you know, here's bullet points, and just make

82
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 2: sure you get us from point A to point B

83
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 2: and make sure that this moment in the middle happens.

84
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 2: Anything you want to do outside of that cool. And

85
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 2: then there are other wrestlers where the powers that be

86
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 2: would be like you say it word for work, you

87
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: nail this, nail this promo, nail this script. So it

88
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 2: just depends on the talent and what they think of them.

89
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 2: Sometimes it would be a test, which to me was

90
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 2: so hardcore and counterproductive, like you're going to test on

91
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 2: live TV, Like that's not where you see if someone

92
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: has it, like especially on your biggest show, that you

93
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 2: build them up slowly, right like old Hollywood used to do. No,

94
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 2: we don't fe say. Wrestler X from FCW was suddenly

95
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 2: on Monday Night Raw having never cut a promo in

96
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 2: a crowd bigger than you know, two hundred people. And

97
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 2: that's a lot to put on any you know, young

98
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: or old professional who's trying to make it in show business,

99
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: let alone professional wrestling, where not only do they have

100
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 2: to have an entire fight scene memorized and choreographed, but

101
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,480
Speaker 2: they have to memorize dialogue in minutes minutes. It's crazy,

102
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 2: it's crazy, it's crazy not to get sidetracked, but it's

103
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: just cool. It's a cool opportunity for everyone that goes

104
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: to Raw. SmackDown's a big show too, and is treated

105
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 2: with more respect than it used to be. But shout

106
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,559
Speaker 2: out to the raw cast, Shout out to mister Cody Rhodes,

107
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 2: Shout out to Becky Lynch, Shout out to Gounther getting

108
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 2: the shot. Seat at the table, seat at the Yeah,

109
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 2: what movie is that? From No Idea? It sounded like

110
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 2: you said, like Maha man Randy Savage though the program.

111
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 2: Do you remember that football movie James Coach?

112
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 3: Oh?

113
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 2: This was a good side quest, dude, good college football movie.

114
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 2: Talked about like the corruption and the money that goes

115
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 2: behind the scenes and how the city and the college

116
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 2: runs the city and all this. And there was this

117
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 2: one guy named Latimer and he was taking crazy steroids,

118
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 2: like all of the steroids, just so he could make

119
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 2: the team. And he finally makes it from special teams

120
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 2: to starting defense and he goes, yeah, see it at

121
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 2: the table. Yeah, And on one coach goes to the

122
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 2: other and he goes, you make sure Latimer knows they're

123
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 2: piss testing on Friday. Okay.

124
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 3: I love that one football movie with some wrestlers in

125
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 3: it that if you don't want you don't want to

126
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 3: watch it. If you still want to like those wrestlers.

127
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 2: Don't.

128
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 3: Don't don't go back and revisit an Adam Sandler movie

129
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 3: that has some wrestlers.

130
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: In the oh the their Longest Yard.

131
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's some scenes in there that if modern times

132
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 3: were to look at it, we would be having a

133
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 3: pretty big.

134
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,160
Speaker 2: Social issues. Oh no, they'd be canceled.

135
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, there's a scene that every time my buddy goes.

136
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 2: Then you got to cancel Burt Reynolds too, because he

137
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 2: did the first one that they did the remakeup, so

138
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 2: now you have to cancel two generations. Yeah, but the

139
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 2: cast is the script exactly the same? Hell' no? No,

140
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: yeah exactly. I don't think.

141
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 3: So. There's just some scene we'll talk about it when

142
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 3: we're not on camera that you go, oh god, how

143
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 3: did this make it onto a movie screen?

144
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 2: What was gonna say? I was just glad about the draft.

145
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 3: I don't know, if we're talking about it, that they

146
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 3: didn't break up the street profits, which I was very

147
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 3: happy about.

148
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,200
Speaker 2: I was nervous they up the street profits. And uh

149
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 2: so I'm glad that my daughter would have been crushed.

150
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 2: That's her favorite tag team. Yeah, she would have been annihilated.

151
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 2: So I'm glad that happened.

152
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 3: And then also, I'm just confused you got Cody Rhodes

153
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 3: on the opposite show as Roman Reigns.

154
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 2: Okay, but doesn't this remind you of that story I

155
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: told you last week where yeah, no, everything you're saying

156
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 2: makes it's not going to get the opportunity. It's gonna

157
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,559
Speaker 2: be hard time for Cody Rhodes on Monday Night. Raw Baby,

158
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 2: It's gonna be hot times bab.

159
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 3: Good time for Mit the brock Leftner, good time from

160
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 3: it the brock Leftner this week.

161
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 2: All right, So listen, mister Rhodes, let's go to backlash

162
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 2: and let's talk brock Lessener versus Cody Rhodes. Brock Lessner

163
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 2: has still not told us why he was such a

164
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,679
Speaker 2: dick in Los Angeles and smashed Cody all over the place.

165
00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 2: They haven't revealed that hopefully there's a Paul Hayman tie

166
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 2: in there somewhere, and they haven't just forgotten about that

167
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 2: completely because other than that, they don't have too much

168
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 2: of a reason to fight. However, I'm more excited to

169
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 2: see this match than any of the other matches on

170
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 2: the card. I love Cody Rhoads, my daughter loves Cody

171
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 2: Rhodes shout out to Cody Rhodes and Brock Lessner is

172
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 2: freaking awesome.

173
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 3: Man.

174
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 2: It's a unicorn like. Nobody looks like him, Nobody can

175
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,599
Speaker 2: do what he does. He's, you know, almost double his

176
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: age from when he first started wrestling, and he still

177
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 2: looks just as sick. It's like having a legit unicorn

178
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 2: on your team. Everybody wants that, even Voldemort one to

179
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 2: Day I kept him alive was the unicorn blood. So

180
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,319
Speaker 2: hopefully I want Cody to win. But now I'm I'm

181
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,719
Speaker 2: all in on the hard Time story and I think

182
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 2: Brock's going to kill him, and I think he might

183
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 2: kill him the way he killed John Cena back in

184
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 2: the day where it was like a borderline squash match.

185
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 3: What say you, yeah, I think I think Brock crushes

186
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 3: Cody Rhoads. I'm I'm no, I've drank the kool aid.

187
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 3: I think Brock is. I think that we are doing

188
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 3: the hard Time storyline. And even if not, why would

189
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 3: you have Cody Rhoades beat Brock? It makes no sense.

190
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 2: I think the revenge revenge is why Jeff, don't you

191
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 2: believe in revenge? Are you that nice and sweet? You've

192
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 2: never gone for revenge. No revenge is fine. I don't

193
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 2: think people even think about like their memories are so short.

194
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 2: They're not going, oh, he never got his rematch, you know,

195
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 2: I don't think that they I don't think that they

196
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 2: think like that. I don't think that people who do

197
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 2: you think the people think are going to win this match?

198
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 2: Do you think that it's like ninety Cody ten percent Brock? Yep?

199
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 2: Because people are so I don't know, I knew.

200
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,839
Speaker 3: I don't know if over is the right word, but

201
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 3: like they definitely just drank that Cody Rhoads kool aid.

202
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 3: The same people that hated him when he was Stardust

203
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 3: and hated him when he was blah blah blah are

204
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 3: all They didn't even like him in a w really

205
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 3: that much, and now.

206
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 2: They're all about Cody. Yeah, you're right.

207
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I think that they're all that believe that

208
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 3: he got screwed, which also makes people like a person.

209
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 3: If they think, oh, he should have won against Roman,

210
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 3: that makes them feel like.

211
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 2: Bret Hart a lot of latitude, deserve something or whatever.

212
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,080
Speaker 3: So I think I think they all think Cody's gonna

213
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 3: win and Brock's gonna break their hearts.

214
00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 2: Okay, y'all, so everyone listening, remember this episode and remember

215
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 2: the last episode, because I think Jeff's right. I think

216
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,599
Speaker 2: most people are all in on Cody. I kind of

217
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 2: hope they're right. Just I really like him and it's wrestling.

218
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,440
Speaker 2: So it was good then, but it's even better now.

219
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 2: Like his ring psychology, he's got it all figured out.

220
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:15,439
Speaker 3: Man.

221
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,199
Speaker 2: That crazy three matches with Seth Rollins was such a

222
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: good story. They were so good, man. But remember we

223
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 2: said it first. He's going to lose and he's going

224
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,719
Speaker 2: to get beat the hell up, and it's going to

225
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 2: be hard times. Baby, It's going to be hard times.

226
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 2: I think that's what I get more convinced with every

227
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 2: single minute he's on camera. That's exactly what they're doing.

228
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 3: It does give us a nice reason to root for

229
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 3: him to lose, too, which is kind of fun because

230
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 3: you know, I don't want him to lose. I like him.

231
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 2: But it's one of those things like, uh, it makes

232
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 2: it okay, Freddy said it, Freddy's buddy or whatever, your friend,

233
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 2: My buddy is the prognosticator of prognosticators.

234
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 3: But it makes me feel smart when I go, oh, yes,

235
00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 3: they're doing it. But even though you know, it just

236
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 3: makes me all right.

237
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 2: Moving down the line, sir, we're going to talk about

238
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 2: Bianca bell Air and what has to be nearing the

239
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 2: end of this story with Damage Control versus EO Sky.

240
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 2: Bianca has been drafted over to SmackDown. I don't know

241
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 2: what that means for her. I think it's probably just

242
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 2: trying to give someone else an opportunity over there, because

243
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 2: Becky was on SmackDown for a little bit. She was

244
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 2: on maternity leave for most of her SmackDown tenure, so

245
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 2: we got Bianca versus EO Sky. I have softened a

246
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 2: bit on Bianca since she first won the title. I

247
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 2: would have liked to see her and maybe she's not

248
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 2: given the freedom on the microphone, but it still looks

249
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 2: a little tight sometimes, and that's either they're making her

250
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 2: stay on script or she needs to stay on script.

251
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 2: I would like to see them let go a little

252
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,559
Speaker 2: bit with that, or maybe just see her relax a

253
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:58,280
Speaker 2: little bit in her promos versus Eosky, who they won't

254
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 2: let speak because Inish wasn't her first language, even though

255
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 2: she speaks English. I didn't know that, but yeah, man,

256
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 2: it's just like, well, there's an accent. No one can understand.

257
00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 2: Vince doesn't mean bro. They did it to English speaking

258
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 2: dudes like Drew Drew McIntyre, sorry, Drew McIntyre. So they

259
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 2: did that with Drew McIntyre when I first worked there.

260
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 2: They called him up from FCW and they're like, you

261
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,439
Speaker 2: have to lose the accent. You know, it's like my voice.

262
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 2: So you're gonna like you can't make him do that.

263
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 2: He's not a trained actor. He's nice, ever worked on

264
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 2: his voice. He's a big ass dude from Scotland.

265
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:33,839
Speaker 3: I think I've shared this on the podcast before, but

266
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 3: for a long time, Becky didn't get her pushed because

267
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 3: Vince didn't understand what she was saying.

268
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 2: She would just speak and then he's like, what is

269
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 2: she saying out there? Does anyone?

270
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 3: And everyone's like, yeah, we can hear her, fine, like

271
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 3: we all understand, But Vince has got like a filter

272
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 3: on his ear that if you don't speak perfect.

273
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 2: He doesn't know what you're talking about exactly. So the

274
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 2: setup for this match has been too long for my taste.

275
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 2: It ran out of gas a while ago, and I

276
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: don't think should end with il Sky, but I think

277
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,079
Speaker 2: it probably will. But they're gonna wrestle. EO's gonna be

278
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 2: insane and do blind backflips without even bothering blind meaning

279
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 2: she doesn't even bother to look to see if the

280
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 2: person's in the right position. She's just trusted them and

281
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 2: it's the ultimate trust fall with a twist and a

282
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 2: triple flip and everything else against one of the strongest

283
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 2: chicks in professional wrestling who can catch you in mid

284
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 2: air do whatever she wants to do. So I'm looking

285
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 2: forward to a big guy, little guy only, big girl,

286
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 2: little girl type match. What about you, sir?

287
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 3: I mean we're winness seeing Damage Control breaking up, right,

288
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 3: I mean, they're gonna just have us watch it.

289
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 2: They haven't even been together that long.

290
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 3: I mean I remember we was talking about it on

291
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 3: this podcast when when Damage Control got together, it seemed

292
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 3: like a cool little stable. They're already breaking up, not

293
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 3: much to show for. I feel like this will be

294
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 3: a forgotten stable.

295
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think this is really a no match. Really.

296
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 3: I think, you know, Biancle Bellare, there's zero chance they

297
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 3: make Eo Sky and the champ, you know, so I

298
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 3: think it's kind of a silly I think this match

299
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 3: will be when I go to get beer and snacks.

300
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 2: Now to a championship match that I know we're both

301
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 2: going to enjoy. The SmackDown Women's champions Ria Ripley, one

302
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 2: of our favorites, versus friend of the show, the amazing

303
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 2: miss Selena Vega, and we're rooting for you, Selena. However,

304
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 2: Ria Ripley is a killer, and I don't know how

305
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 2: anybody's got I think she's gonna get a run the

306
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 2: way Bianca's gotten a run, a plus year title reign

307
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 2: where everyone, every single storyline is to make at the

308
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 2: end of the day real look even more credible. And

309
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 2: then eventually I guess that they still love Rhonda, So

310
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 2: when Rhonda Rousey gets healthy, then they'll probably do something

311
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 2: with the two of them. What about you? May you

312
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 2: excited for this match?

313
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 3: No, I'm not, because I already know the outcome right Like,

314
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 3: there's just a zero chance where he Ripley's gonna lose,

315
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 3: and I love Zelenavega.

316
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 2: It's tough to get anyone to believe that it's not.

317
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 2: Here we go the bloodline versus Kevin Owens and Sammy's

318
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 2: Ain and Matt Riddle, and we say the bloodline that

319
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:19,359
Speaker 2: includes both uso brothers and their younger brothers Solo SIKOA,

320
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 2: Matt Riddle and him have been having good beef. I've

321
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 2: liked Riddle since his since he's made his return, He's

322
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 2: right in the mix with with top dudes. Triple threat

323
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 2: match is tough for me to usually get into. AW

324
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 2: has only had two since I started watching AW that

325
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 2: I like, not triple threat but six man tags. I'm it.

326
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 2: So I'm hoping I like this because I love Kevin Owens.

327
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 2: That nobody can get me more hype for a match

328
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 2: than when he just has his like three sentence I

329
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 2: don't care. I don't want to talk anymore. I just

330
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 2: want to punch you in the face. Let's go right out.

331
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 2: And I'm like, yeah, let's call punch somebody in the face.

332
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 2: And he'll do like the least amount of talking in

333
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 2: these days in the promos where it used to just

334
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 2: be like ninety percent Kevin but ten saying Kevin is awesome.

335
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 2: I love him and I'm looking forward to watching it,

336
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 2: and I hope I did get as much as I'm

337
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 2: looking forward to it because I love everybody in the match.

338
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 3: I like everybody in the match except Matt Riddle. Not

339
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 3: crazy about Matt Riddle, but you know the story like.

340
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 2: Not a Riddle guy. I'll never get too mad you

341
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 2: didn't catch his flip flops like when he flip flop

342
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 2: and also missed.

343
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 3: A little spoiler for the fans or like a little

344
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 3: little a little inside information for wrestling fans. If you're

345
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,120
Speaker 3: ever at a match and you do catch Matt Riddle's

346
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 3: flip flop, security guard comes and takes it from you

347
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 3: and says, I need that bill. Yeah he gets he

348
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 3: gets his flip flop back. So that's frustrating.

349
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 2: If you catch a flop, you keep the flop. I'm

350
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 2: keeping it and then they're gonna go you have to leave,

351
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,719
Speaker 2: and I go, no, keeping it. He flip. He flipped

352
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 2: it off his foot. I know they come and grab it. Stupid, right,

353
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 2: What do you get? What do they give you? Nothing?

354
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 3: They just go, hey, I need that bad nothing. They

355
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 3: give you nothing. It's not like a foul ball in baseball.

356
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 3: It's it's worse. It's it's way, way, way worse. We

357
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 3: need to start a hashtag maybe, so just get Matt

358
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 3: Riddle a nice flip flop endorsement. Anyways, that way, he

359
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 3: has one per venue that he could doesn't have to

360
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 3: worry about losing some flip flop.

361
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 2: No, Tiva, step up, Tiva, what the hell you want

362
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 2: to start selling stuff besides two river rafters. You put

363
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 2: your your sandals and your flip flops on Matt Riddle,

364
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 2: you call them the Riddles. You just give him his

365
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 2: olden just like they did Air Jordan, and then boom,

366
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 2: your sales go up and kids can actually keep the

367
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 2: flops that the gip flip.

368
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 3: Also, the rock never went into the audience and went

369
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 3: and grabbed his elbow pad. No, he said, hey, that's

370
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 3: one per one per people's elbow. Some fans going on,

371
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do that back, young man. I got the

372
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 3: people's elbow when he did it to mankind. They're they're

373
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 3: they're all remembering them. Oh, I remember when he did

374
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 3: the people's elbow and so and so I got that

375
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 3: elbow guard. No, this match, the bloodline was Kevin on

376
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 3: Sam's and Matt Riddle. I've got the bloodline. I feel

377
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 3: like they can't lose. Also, when are they gonna name

378
00:18:56,240 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 3: that flying Samoan spike that the solo is Coya does What.

379
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 2: Do you mean it's called the Samoan spike, that's the name.

380
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 3: Of it, but he does like a flying one lately,

381
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 3: Like he's like, does it jumping up? It's almost like

382
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 3: a Superman punch slash.

383
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,719
Speaker 2: It's a jumping samos. Yeah, don't you know, wrestling bro.

384
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 3: I just wish that they'd have a separate name for it,

385
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 3: you know, Oh my god, I'm with the what's the superman?

386
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 2: You could call it? That's pretty quick. So I think

387
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 2: Roman would get mad and then that could give him

388
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 2: a little storyline where he's like, hey, I don't like

389
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 2: the name of that. I don't I don't think your

390
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 2: father would like to Now, don't think anybody in the

391
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 2: family would like to know that because he's stealing his

392
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 2: she's stealing his ship.

393
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, but what, I don't think this guy knows how

394
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 3: family works. If he's getting mad that his relatives are

395
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 3: using similar.

396
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 2: Things, so he gets he gets mad at everything. Man,

397
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,639
Speaker 2: He's he's like the meanest godfather ever. That's when they

398
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:51,440
Speaker 2: say absolute power corrupts absolutely he Roman Reigns is being corrupted,

399
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 2: and it's just being corrupted.

400
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,679
Speaker 3: He's like the brother that writes his name on all

401
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 3: of his crap in the house. He's like, this is mine,

402
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 3: this is mine, draws a line down the middle the

403
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 3: room so that you know you can't cross it. I'm

404
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 3: your brother, yeah, but this is mine. Don't wear my pants.

405
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 3: Don't listen to my moment CDs.

406
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 2: Roman Rains is the kind of guy that would create

407
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 2: borders between states. That's the kind of guy. Roman Rains

408
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,639
Speaker 2: is not a good family team player. All right, it's

409
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 2: time to talk celebrity fighting. This month's celebrity and Professional

410
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 2: Wrestling is once again mister Bad Bunny versus mister Damien Priest.

411
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 2: That used to be boys. The first time Bad Bunny

412
00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 2: joined WWE for a little thing against mis Damien Priest

413
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 2: was his homie, Damien Priest. That was the debut of

414
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 2: people learning. Damien Priest spoke fluent Spanish, and he did.

415
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 2: He cut a promo in Spanish with Bad Bunny. Bad

416
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 2: Bunny did very well in his match. Probably not as

417
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 2: well as Logan Paul. I think most people would agree

418
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 2: on that, but he did very well. You could tell

419
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 2: he worked hard. And now he's back in Puerto Rico.

420
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,399
Speaker 2: This is gonna be insane. People are gonna go nuts.

421
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:03,199
Speaker 2: Damian Priest is a really solid wrestler, and I actually

422
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 2: think this match is gonna be good. I'm not big

423
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 2: on celebrities. Look, if I was into it, I would

424
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 2: be in one, all right. I would have done it

425
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 2: a million times. I'm not a big fan of it.

426
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 2: The one little thing I did, I could tell the

427
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 2: fans did not whant me is there. They were glad

428
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,199
Speaker 2: that I got checked up. So I don't think if

429
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 2: it has any place. However, as times change, so do opinions.

430
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 2: And I honestly think this is going to be a

431
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 2: good match. You probably disagree completely, and you're probably right,

432
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,680
Speaker 2: But what do you think. I don't think it's gonna

433
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 2: be a good match at all. Here's the thing.

434
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 3: Bad Bunny is so stinking famous, one of the most

435
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 3: famous people in modern times. I constantly talk about the

436
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 3: time I saw him at the Lakers game and he

437
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 3: got a bigger pop than Jack Nicholson, Like the place

438
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 3: went crazy, and I was like, how how does it?

439
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 3: Who is this bad Bunny guy? I just could I'm

440
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 3: still in shock years later at his celebrity.

441
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,680
Speaker 2: Here's the thing. He's bad. Dude's bad.

442
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 3: He's not famous enough to have his own match in wrestling,

443
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 3: in my opinion, because as far as like the wrestling part,

444
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 3: like carrying a wrestling match.

445
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 2: Bro, he's the baddest of all bunnies. What do you

446
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 2: tell he's than Bugs Bunny?

447
00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I wouldn't watch Bugs Bunny wrestling either. You

448
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:13,680
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. I don't want to see it.

449
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,719
Speaker 3: Oh he was good in that one episode, and then

450
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 3: Damian Priest isn't famous enough to like carry this match

451
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 3: for me on the wrestling side. So it's kind of like,

452
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 3: I just don't really, I can't imagine.

453
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 2: Here's the thing.

454
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 3: I get it, Bad Bunny's very famous, I get it.

455
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 3: And then it's in Puerto Rico, so I get it.

456
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 3: I get why they're doing it. I just don't think

457
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 3: this will be a match that I'm gonna be You know,

458
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,359
Speaker 3: can Damian Priest make Bad Bunny look like a good

459
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 3: wrestler in there? Is that? I mean?

460
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 2: I feel like the mis makes everyone look great, right,

461
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 2: So this is where you'll figure out if Bad Bunny

462
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 2: can do it. I think they put them together because

463
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 2: they have the relationship. So I feel like these guys

464
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,879
Speaker 2: have been working on this for a while now, and

465
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 2: that's why I think it can be good. That said,

466
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 2: who do you think is gonna win this match? That

467
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 2: you don't want to watch Bunny. They're gonna let bad

468
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 2: Buddy in his hometown is gonna beat Damian Priest. I'll

469
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 2: go the other way. I don't or anything. It's just

470
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,399
Speaker 2: a straight fight, you know. I'm gonna say it's gonna

471
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 2: be bad news for all the Puerto Ricans on the card.

472
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 2: Zelina is gonna lose and Bad Bunny is gonna lose too,

473
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 2: despite Ray trying to help out and and make the save.

474
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,680
Speaker 2: And I think Damian Priest will get the win because

475
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 2: they're protecting the Judgment Day without giving them much story

476
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 2: more than I've seen them protect anyone as far as

477
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 2: like wins and loss. They had to give the one

478
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 2: back to edge with Finn, but other than that, it's

479
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 2: just win win win for the Judgment Day. I think

480
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 2: they'll win again.

481
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 3: You can't beat Bad Bunny in Puerto Rico. In Puerto Rico, yeah,

482
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 3: they'll go nuts killed. Damian Priest was a soccer match.

483
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,919
Speaker 3: Jesus Christ the Great. I've told the story when they

484
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 3: were like throwing batteries at the bad guy when he

485
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 3: won the match, Like granted, I was like a but still, man,

486
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:02,120
Speaker 3: it's hardcore pack.

487
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 2: Things have gotten harder, not softer, We've got a triple

488
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,919
Speaker 2: threat with your guy, Bronson Reid, Bobby Lashley, and Austin Theory.

489
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 2: I'm not too hyped about this match, but I love

490
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 2: Bobby Lashley, I like Austin Theory, and I'm still I'm

491
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 2: still watching Bronson Reid. I don't know if I like

492
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 2: him yet or not. What about you? You probably excited him.

493
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,080
Speaker 2: You like Bronson, right? I love Bronson read it has

494
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:23,880
Speaker 2: to be cool, I guess.

495
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 3: I mean, I've never been a big United States Championship

496
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,120
Speaker 3: Belt guy, but I like all three of these guys,

497
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 3: so I don't think it'll be a good, fun, fun match.

498
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 2: I believe Austin Theory will win, is what I believe.

499
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 2: I agree with you, and that will take us to

500
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 2: Jeff's favorite match of the night and our final seth

501
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:46,880
Speaker 2: freaking rollins. I don't care what you dress up as.

502
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 2: You could put the fruit thing on your head and

503
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,120
Speaker 2: come out and dance a samba because I think you're

504
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 2: too good, So suck it. No matter how much you

505
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 2: try to make me hate you. You come out with

506
00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 2: a French braid and I'd be like, you know what,

507
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 2: I hated it, but it is the best French braid.

508
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 2: I've ever seen so Seth Rollins versus your new faith

509
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 2: o Mas, hopefully with mister MVP at his side for

510
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 2: a little interference, you know, a little shadiness. Seth Rollins

511
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 2: versus Omas seemed out of the blue, which honestly makes

512
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 2: me think Seth might lose this match and put Omas

513
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 2: over and get like a little injury in a little

514
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 2: vacation time. I don't know how else to frame this match,

515
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 2: at least in my head based on my experience. Otherwise,

516
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,479
Speaker 2: you're just like jobbing out Omas for no reason at all. Right,

517
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 2: I get it, you know what I mean? Like you

518
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 2: got to build him up to take him down, and

519
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 2: they've only been taken him down lately. So I feel

520
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 2: like Seth is gonna do business and eat a one

521
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 2: two three now. I'm sure there'll be some MVP interference, right,

522
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 2: some shadiness so that it's not just a clean wind.

523
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 2: But what do you think? This is your guy? This

524
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 2: is your guy and my guy with the bad wardrobe.

525
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 3: Here's the thing, this match had no business happening. It

526
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 3: makes no sense, no lead up, no anything. And you

527
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 3: can't keep having almost lose if you're building this guy

528
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:15,440
Speaker 3: as a giant and he's supposed to be like this,

529
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 3: you know, maybe it's not like the future of wrestling,

530
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 3: but a future star in wrestling.

531
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 2: You can't keep having him lose.

532
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 3: And so since there's no belt on the line, since

533
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,399
Speaker 3: there's really no stakes, since there's really no story, I

534
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,439
Speaker 3: think seth Rawlins loses here in any fashion that they

535
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 3: can make it happen. However, they justify in the writer's room.

536
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 3: I think seth Rawlins loses here. If seth Rawlins doesn't

537
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 3: lose here and there's no belt, no story, no reason,

538
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,199
Speaker 3: no stakes, then that's insane and they're doing almost dirty

539
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 3: in my opinion.

540
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,119
Speaker 2: So I think Almost wins. I'll be very happy.

541
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 3: It'll be a very forgettable match for everyone. No one's

542
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,679
Speaker 3: you know, it's not like, you know, a year from now,

543
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 3: they're gonna be but Almost beat seth Rawlins, Like I

544
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 3: don't think anyone's gonna care, and I think it's a

545
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 3: real kind of These are the type of matches I love,

546
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 3: but not most of the wrestling fans and not most

547
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 3: of the wrestling universe. So I think seth Rollins loses.

548
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,160
Speaker 3: I hope seth Rollins loses. I hope Amas does great.

549
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 3: And if he doesn't, it'll be very confusing match for me.

550
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 2: Jeff, do you know what time it is? I'm just

551
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 2: waiting for the music. Let me cue it up real quick.

552
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 2: I raised the budget so I got all these like

553
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 2: voiced people doing all these great jingles for us. Let

554
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,920
Speaker 2: me find it here it is. It's Jeff das hoptag

555
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 2: of the Wee. I love the Yeah the hot tag.

556
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 2: This week there was an announcement.

557
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 3: I don't know how long it's been circling around in

558
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 3: the in the in the back rooms or the public square,

559
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 3: but Vince McMahon and the wwe are being sued by

560
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 3: a ex writer are a previous writer. I don't know

561
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 3: how long she hasn't been in the writer's room. I

562
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 3: don't even know if she was a real but she

563
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 3: was in the writer's room and heard many many Allegedly,

564
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 3: she heard many pitches that she found to be racially

565
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 3: insensitive and offensive to her, and she didn't like the

566
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 3: stereotypes that were being used, specifically racial stereotypes that were

567
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 3: being pitched in the writer's room. When she went to

568
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 3: complain about it, someone said to her, I feel there

569
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 3: was another female in the office said it's the writer's room.

570
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 3: That's what happens, the just pitching ideas and whatever. But

571
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 3: then some other people have agreed with her and said, yeah,

572
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 3: some of these ideas are.

573
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 2: Ignorant and stupid.

574
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 3: On one of the things that was used as an

575
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 3: example in the filing was a wrestler was Indian descent.

576
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 2: They pitched that he could be like part he was

577
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 2: part of nine to eleven.

578
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 3: When it happened, and they were like, Oh, that's you know,

579
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 3: pretty insensitive and insane and racist. Here's the thing, it's WWE,

580
00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 3: it's pro wrestling, it's in that's like, that's like the

581
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 3: kind of how it's always been. Like they need to

582
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 3: have the freedom to talk about these ideas and just

583
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 3: see and then and then smarter minds will prevail and go, hey,

584
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 3: that's a stupid idea. We're not going to make a

585
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 3: guy have a nine to eleven background, like, but the

586
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 3: idea you shouldn't be able to sue them over. I'm

587
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 3: annoyed of this because I'm a comedian and you got

588
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 3: to take risks and it's about like, you know, trying something.

589
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,280
Speaker 3: So I'm very very annoyed about it, and wrestling as

590
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 3: a long past of making insane television that we love.

591
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 3: The best example I could come up with might not

592
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 3: be the best example, but here it is. Sometimes you'll

593
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 3: say to someone, oh, hey, you know you look like

594
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 3: so and so, and they'll go, oh, just because I'm

595
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 3: the same race, and you're like, if I thought you

596
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 3: looked like someone, the odds are it would be someone

597
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 3: of the same race.

598
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 2: It's not necessarily like, no one's ever think Bruce Lee. No,

599
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 2: that's the thing.

600
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 3: No one's ever gone, Jeff, you look like Ben Affleck

601
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 3: and I go, oh, cause we're both white. It's like, yeah,

602
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 3: it's definitely gonna be a white person that you think

603
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 3: I look like. All that being said, it's getting carried away.

604
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 3: It's getting ridiculous. Nobody should be sued over pitching ideas,

605
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:08,160
Speaker 3: no matter how stupid.

606
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 2: The ideas.

607
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 3: Ideas start stupid sometimes and become great. Roddy Piper is

608
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 3: not from Glasgow. He's from Portland, Oregon.

609
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 2: Jeff, tell the people where you're gonna be this weekend.

610
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be in La Joya, which is right next

611
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 3: year diego at the comedy store Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

612
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 2: Come see me, ladies and gentlemen on behalf of my

613
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,160
