When 46 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: the segment was just about the two of them, it 47 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 1: was perfect. Now they had to bring out some other 48 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 1: people as well. They brought out Cage, and they brought 49 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: out Christian Cage, and they brought out Derby and everyone 50 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 1: did fine. But the promo was really about these two 51 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: guys and they were just using the other madness to 52 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: start to set up the main event, which was going 53 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: to be this cool tag team match that they gave 54 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: him like felt like thirty five minutes to tell the story, 55 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: which was really awesome. But Ricky starks, this was the 56 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: best he's ever looked on TV. This is the best 57 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: promo he's cut on TV. And it wasn't emotional at all. 58 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: It was egotistical, entitled, arrogant, and he just said it 59 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: how it is and the crowd really ate it up 60 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: and they were really hot.

I was just gonna earn. Yeah, 72 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 2: there's supposed to be three other guys here, So. 73 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: That sets up the main event with Christian Cage, Ricky 74 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: Starks on one team and Darby Allen Seampunk on the other, 75 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: with Lucasaurus in the corner of the two heels, which 76 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: led to the main events. So this match started slow 77 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: and I wasn't loving it, And by the time they 78 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: came in from the second commercial break, I feel like 79 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 1: the more time you give CM punk, the better his 80 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: matches are. The less time, it's just he needs time 81 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,119 Speaker 1: to tell a story, and when you give him time, 82 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: he's one of the best. The crowd was so hot 83 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: and cold at him, And I don't mean cold as 84 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: an insult. I mean the people who don't like him 85 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: really let him know. But the people who supported him 86 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: got louder throughout, or he changed minds or reminded people 87 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: who hate him now why they liked him before. Because 88 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: the punk chance got pretty damn big, and the match 89 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: was really cool, and Ricky Starks came out in these 90 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 1: blue and gold trunks and knee pads and looked like 91 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: a friggin superstar, and punk really helped him look good 92 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: out there. He gets the win with another shady rope 93 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: grab right at the end on Darby, and I love 94 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: this new thing for him, right because now the refs 95 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: are going to start looking, and so he's gonna have 96 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: to find someone another way to cheat, and then a 97 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: different way to cheat. And it's not like Eddie Guerrero thing. 98 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: It's in a more selfish way. Eddie's had a wink 99 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: and a smile. There's no wink and smile with Ricky Starks. 100 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: But I'm really liking him. I really liked the match. 101 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 1: What did you think of it? 102 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 3: Do you notice that Lucasaurus is kind of doing a 103 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,559 Speaker 3: Road Warriors kind of he has the mad Max. 104 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: He kind of like one shoulder pad.

It reminded 169 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 3: me when I was with Becky. They didn't like know 170 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 3: what to do with her, and there was a writer 171 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 3: that pitched like, what if we have you just shave 172 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 3: your head and act like you're having like a breakdown 173 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 3: and Becky was like no, and it was even gonna 174 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 3: like move forward. They were like no, we think that's 175 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 3: a cool idea. Like this writer pitched like she would 176 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 3: have to shave your head. I'm not gonna shave my head. 177 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 3: What are you talking about? And so never because Becky 178 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 3: like stood aground and was like I'm not doing that. 179 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 3: They never did it, which made me wonder if, like 180 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 3: maybe shots he was like, I'm gonna shave my head 181 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 3: for this thing.
