Speaker 1: Yeah As welcome your host. Byron's fine bro say practics,
Speaker 1: practice ball ladies, and tell in your PFF with that
Speaker 1: we won't get you inside of Studio thirty four. This
Speaker 1: is the BFFs. I am Greg Sauceman. He is a Snaffle.
Speaker 1: What's happening? Not Frank Snaffle going on? Greg Hey doing today?
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the program. He makes some appearance once
Speaker 1: a year for the Royal Rombo Preview. It's Gunny Snaffle.
Speaker 1: What's man? I'm good man. I might the brock lessner
Speaker 1: of the show. You know, I just show up up
Speaker 1: I want and get paid a whole lot less. Also,
Speaker 1: so uh we we used to do this Royal preview
Speaker 1: shows that started that with four man show. It was myself, Frank,
Speaker 1: Johnny and Mike Floria Florio left us the bastard that
Speaker 1: he is. Then the show became a a three man
Speaker 1: show between myself, Frank and Johnny. We are now on
Speaker 1: your three of this is your three or four three?
Speaker 1: All right, you're three of this. Frank has left us
Speaker 1: because he's too good for us now. He is not
Speaker 1: a man of the people. He's probably too busy staring
Speaker 1: at baseball stats that nobody cares about. And instead we
Speaker 1: welcome in our buddy, Kevin Walsh. Kevin, what's happening? I'm
Speaker 1: not too much excited to be here. Royal Rumble time?
Speaker 1: It doesn't get much better than that. And uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I've been going back and forth. Do I not know
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen because I'm paying a little less attention?
Speaker 1: Or is it just really an unpredictable Royal Rumble Year?
Speaker 1: It's never unpredictable, Kevin. That's a lie. So how this
Speaker 1: this program normally works is we we go through the
Speaker 1: car and we break it down, We talk about what's
Speaker 1: happening and wrestling WW specifically Arrogan works for them. We
Speaker 1: don't promote other companies on this show, so we will
Speaker 1: stay focused. When here rest of the tn A. We
Speaker 1: had a ten a show, did we not, Johnny? That's right,
Speaker 1: so we all support what our friend does. So Eric
Speaker 1: Young he's not here today contractual obligations, of course, So
Speaker 1: we will break down the royal rumble, Johnny. Uh, what's
Speaker 1: the first match on the card. Uh, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with we're talking pre show whatever the card is. Probably
Speaker 1: Shamus versus Shorty G. Why is that a match? It's
Speaker 1: gonna ask you the same thing. Good thing. I got
Speaker 1: it at first. It's a they have Shamus come back.
Speaker 1: You know, he's doing this whole there's no more men
Speaker 1: on SmackDown gimmick and he just seems to be a
Speaker 1: lot of men on SmackDown. I agree, but but not
Speaker 1: the man. Gosh at a bell? Thank you? There you go, alright, continue,
Speaker 1: but apparently not as manly as Shamus is. And the
Speaker 1: person who sites that target is Shorty Ga. He's a
Speaker 1: short guy, I'm assuming, so nice alright. So basically Shamus
Speaker 1: big pale fellow with orange hair. Uh, he's back to
Speaker 1: looking like a real uh hell fellow with orange hair
Speaker 1: and to what else for a while with some with
Speaker 1: some like nose ring thing. So that was he looked
Speaker 1: pretty stupid. Now he looks less stupid as what I'm
Speaker 1: kind of referring to. So he's back. He's facing Chad
Speaker 1: Gablout at a Shorty G, which is basically he's Gimming's
Speaker 1: just he's short, but he he tries hard. So basically
Speaker 1: Vince is saying, you're short, you'll never be good enough.
Speaker 1: So given that Vince owns the company, I expect that
Speaker 1: a man's man will beat the short guy. Kevin. I'll
Speaker 1: take Shorty G because this is right. If this is
Speaker 1: gonna continue, I'm assuming this is. You know, I know
Speaker 1: we're still early and Shamus coming back, but this feels
Speaker 1: like you're classic roll up spots surprise when and this
Speaker 1: will carry out a little bit longer between Shamus and
Speaker 1: the short man. I gotta disagree with you. I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna say this is just Shamus coming back, just gonna
Speaker 1: show his dominance, and Shorts have to be the guy
Speaker 1: who's in his way. So that's just what dot com
Speaker 1: and their front page is like a royal rumble banner, right,
Speaker 1: and it shows Rock Lesner and Becky lations. That would
Speaker 1: be a cool fight Rock versus back. He kind of
Speaker 1: kind of down right like that. That'd pretty cool. It
Speaker 1: seems it seems unlikely though, but uh yeah, that kind
Speaker 1: of got me. I kind of got me excited. All right,
Speaker 1: So we vicked Shamus, both of us. Kevin, you are
Speaker 1: going with shorty g Yeah, huh, I see, Okay, I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't actually have the matches in front of me,
Speaker 1: but I'll try to do it from memory. We'll go
Speaker 1: quickly so we can talk about the rumble and in
Speaker 1: wrestling in general. Next up, we have Bailey defending her
Speaker 1: SmackDown Women's Championship. Is still happening, Yes, are SmackDown Women's
Speaker 1: Championship against Lacey Evans, who is basically Liberty Bell from
Speaker 1: the program Glow and is her That is her gimmick
Speaker 1: she if you watch Glow on Netflix, it's about this blonde,
Speaker 1: all American woman who is fights for you and fights
Speaker 1: for her kid. And that's what Lacey Evans is. Uh, Kevin,
Speaker 1: we'll go to you first for this. I'll take Bailey.
Speaker 1: I feel like she is really now finding herself within
Speaker 1: this more of a Hell character, if you will, And
Speaker 1: I still can't help but thinks she is on somewhat
Speaker 1: of a collision course with her current best friend real
Speaker 1: life best friend. But Eventually all things lead to WrestleMania
Speaker 1: against Sasha Banks, and she will need the title to
Speaker 1: carry that out. Doesn't it seem like that's where this
Speaker 1: one is going with with at this moment. Yet, with
Speaker 1: Bailey and Sasha, they're kind of just both in the
Speaker 1: middle of this hell d a run where unfortunately that
Speaker 1: Charlotte and Becky on SmackDown. It's kind of like, all right,
Speaker 1: it's the two of them and everybody else. I know
Speaker 1: they're trying to build other people up. Lady doesn't feel
Speaker 1: like she's there for me yet, johnnyh Yeah, I gotta agree. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna agree actually with Kevin on this one. I
Speaker 1: think Bailey is gonna retain here and I think, like
Speaker 1: you just said, they're gonna go for a crash course
Speaker 1: with Sasha Banks and Wustamania. I think you do? You do?
Speaker 1: You do? I absolutely agree with that. So who do
Speaker 1: you Who do you think the baby face there is?
Speaker 1: I think it has to be Sasha. You can't just
Speaker 1: turned Bailey, but he just turned Sasha. I mean, but
Speaker 1: he's no for me. We just keep turning people left
Speaker 1: to right. It is. It is difficult, right. I think
Speaker 1: that's a good point. You bring up there, Greg as
Speaker 1: to which one has to turn. What I what I
Speaker 1: like about it though, is whichever one turns you will
Speaker 1: actually be able to get people to buy into because
Speaker 1: if Sasha does it again and it's like again with her,
Speaker 1: she's always the here and Bailey is good and getting
Speaker 1: that sympathy when she has a great heal to go
Speaker 1: up against, So people will be fine with that. But
Speaker 1: if you also do go the more unpredictable route, which
Speaker 1: is Bailey continuing to be the heel, says I'm beating
Speaker 1: you to the punch, Sasha. I've seen how you've been
Speaker 1: staring at my title and like you want to do
Speaker 1: this in Mania. Let's do this because we all remember
Speaker 1: one of the greatest women's matches and the history of wrestling,
Speaker 1: not just the company, the history of wrestling was these
Speaker 1: two at Takeover. Give them the grandest stage of them all.
Speaker 1: Saying that for a while would be interesting. They'll probably
Speaker 1: insert Charlotte in there because I need to all right, well,
Speaker 1: I want to talking about a whole cards to go
Speaker 1: over stick here out We're Rumble Talk next. Are you
Speaker 1: ready for the nation's first and only, free, twenty four
Speaker 1: hour network dedicated to you the betting and fantasy sports enthusiast.
Speaker 1: Sports Grade will provide you with a real time content,
Speaker 1: statistics and gaming intelligence unlike anything you've ever seen before.
Speaker 1: Located both in the heart of New York City and
Speaker 1: inside the FanDuel Sports book at the Meadowlands Sports Grade,
Speaker 1: he's live eighteen hours a day here to serve you
Speaker 1: the fanatic. This is Sports Grade. Get on the grid. Well,
Speaker 1: we don't know what he's listening to. Well, well, fact
Speaker 1: with you here. All the BFS cracked, Suspen, Johnny standful,
Speaker 1: David Walls were here's the Royal Robo previews show. You're
Speaker 1: on the BFFs. No, uh no betting that we can
Speaker 1: do is all shure, we don't do that. So we'll
Speaker 1: just talk about what we expect to come here on
Speaker 1: the BFFs, on the Royal role more at the Royal
Speaker 1: Rumbo this Sunday, let's continue going down the car the
Speaker 1: matches we couldn't care less about, which is all of
Speaker 1: them all right next to the United States Championship, Andrade
Speaker 1: is facing umberto Carrel once again. I go to you, Johnny.
Speaker 1: Why well, because they had this whole storyline with Andrew
Speaker 1: and Ray which was was pretty good storyline, absolutely fantastic
Speaker 1: matches happened there This week on Rob he went to
Speaker 1: go do his hammer lock DDT on the concrete and
Speaker 1: Umberto Corea, who he did it to prior, has been out,
Speaker 1: it has come back, made the save. Now they're making good.
Speaker 1: The problem is nobody cares about Umberto Coreo agreed, I agree,
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm not sold on him yet. However, here's
Speaker 1: the thing. Right, Like Rad's got and with with his
Speaker 1: manager's Alina Vega, like that personality, like pretty cool looking,
Speaker 1: I got some cool moves, this guy just looks like
Speaker 1: a shorter, worst version of him. And that's the issue.
Speaker 1: And I guess I got not think against Americo Korea,
Speaker 1: but like Kevin, that guy is not interesting me at all. Andrade,
Speaker 1: who I was not interested in an n x T
Speaker 1: until he turned heel and got the manager. But he's cool.
Speaker 1: The other guy not cool, well so, and that's probably
Speaker 1: why Andrade is an incredibly safe pick for this one. However,
Speaker 1: these are still two very talented wrestlers, and what I
Speaker 1: would like to see with this run here from ANDRADI
Speaker 1: with the United States Championship is if you will a
Speaker 1: work rate belt, a belt that when it's defended, you
Speaker 1: are getting the highest caliber of matches in the company. No,
Speaker 1: I do not think that Corea is the guy to
Speaker 1: take this belt off of him. And No, I don't
Speaker 1: know how much I'll care about him outside of this match.
Speaker 1: But these two can go out there and in terms
Speaker 1: of pure wrestling, cause I don't know how much you
Speaker 1: know the rumble, you know what I'm talking about here,
Speaker 1: this could be the best match on the show. Well,
Speaker 1: the question is how much time they ultimately yet absolutely see.
Speaker 1: I will highly doubt for the record, this is on
Speaker 1: the main card. I assume this will be during the
Speaker 1: pre show. There's no way this match makes the main card.
Speaker 1: There's no way I'll need to fuel time. So I'll
Speaker 1: take and drawn because I think of a word of
Speaker 1: career sucks and I'm not interested in him in that anyway.
Speaker 1: Shape or four. I almost all right, So we're all
Speaker 1: the same page. Uh yet again, Let's move on to
Speaker 1: Roman Rains is taking on his arch rival King Corman
Speaker 1: in a few that has been going on for about
Speaker 1: seventy four years. Um, they feuded over they always feud about,
Speaker 1: which is Aaron Corbyn says bad stuff Roman Reins is
Speaker 1: the conquering hero. Uh. Corbyn has his cronies and Dolve
Speaker 1: Ziggler and Bobby rude Um. They brought back the usos
Speaker 1: who don't drink and drive anymore, supposedly Uh to be
Speaker 1: on the backs of Roman rains, which is great. So
Speaker 1: now all six of these guys are Sholby and voled
Speaker 1: in this match in some way, Barry Corby has gotten better,
Speaker 1: all Roman reigns a few times. This hopefully is to
Speaker 1: blow off to this feud. Kevin, I don't know that.
Speaker 1: The thing about this that really, like I don't understand
Speaker 1: why this match is happening is, if I'm not mistaken,
Speaker 1: both of these men are going to be in the
Speaker 1: Royal Rumble falls count anywhere. Matches are not supposed to
Speaker 1: be something that you just get up from and completely
Speaker 1: shake off. Here, I'll tell you what I would have
Speaker 1: said Roman confidently. But Greg, you were talking, we're talking
Speaker 1: a little bit prett show about how things could play
Speaker 1: out later on in the night, And now it actually
Speaker 1: worries me that there's a real chance that Corbin does
Speaker 1: end up winning this match. Ultimately that's the director. I'll go, Okay,
Speaker 1: this is great. I think this is a Roman finally
Speaker 1: gets his win over Corbin. Like he said, I think
Speaker 1: this is where they cap off this story and that's
Speaker 1: it with that. So let's say this if I don't
Speaker 1: get to the room one a moment, but if I
Speaker 1: think the Romans one where I think it is we've
Speaker 1: seen before last year Becky Lynch may a prime example
Speaker 1: that they have this person lose earlier in the night
Speaker 1: so you don't see the wind coming later. They do
Speaker 1: it a lot. I thought they were gonna do it
Speaker 1: back with Daniel Brian against Bray White many years ago.
Speaker 1: They didn't. They did do it last year with Becky.
Speaker 1: I think we could see that again with Corbyn picking
Speaker 1: up a win. Then maybe next month they have another
Speaker 1: match with his title shot on the line, just to
Speaker 1: extend it a little bit. There's nothing else going on
Speaker 1: on SmackDown really, um so I can see that happening.
Speaker 1: So I'll take Roman, but I really could see Corby winning.
Speaker 1: There's Kevin, I am with you. I mentioned I mentioned
Speaker 1: Daniel Bryan and I mentioned Bray Why they're fighting once again? Uh?
Speaker 1: What five years later here at the Royal Rumble? Uh
Speaker 1: this year for the title. As Kevin, you were saying
Speaker 1: off the air before, and you too, Johnny, the Fiend
Speaker 1: are the is the hottest property currently in w W E.
Speaker 1: Daniel Bryan has certainly gained some of that popularity and
Speaker 1: momentum back that he has. Oh. I think with Daniel
Speaker 1: Brian is Roy will never be as hot as he
Speaker 1: was five years ago. Number two. You know he's he's great,
Speaker 1: but he's kind of just a guy that's gonna give
Speaker 1: you a great match. They're not probably gonna put in
Speaker 1: this prime position. And as they go all full steamer
Speaker 1: heads to wrestle Mania, I don't think they go in
Speaker 1: the WrestleMania Brian is the champ. I think they go
Speaker 1: it would go in with Bray Wyant as the champ.
Speaker 1: I think that Ray why Fiene will win this match? Kevin, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I said this kind of we're talking about it downstairs.
Speaker 1: I don't know how the Fiene ever loses a match.
Speaker 1: Like we saw what happened at Holland himself. At no
Speaker 1: point was he been able to put away despite every
Speaker 1: single plausible thing being thrown at him until he loses.
Speaker 1: I will pick him win every single match. Ka faith
Speaker 1: is still alive. Yeah, I gotta agree with that. I
Speaker 1: I think The Fiend is gonna be the one here
Speaker 1: to beat Daniel Brian. I think he's I think he's
Speaker 1: on a straight shot to Mania with that title. Absolutely.
Speaker 1: I think I think Brian will be the best match
Speaker 1: that he's had. I think it'll be close and he'll
Speaker 1: see a bunch of near falls there or Brian. Ultimately,
Speaker 1: I think the the Fiend will prevail, though he is
Speaker 1: going to WrestleMania as the hottest thing in the company.
Speaker 1: I totally agree with that will be special, entrance will
Speaker 1: be special. You're absolutely right, and and that's one of
Speaker 1: the reasons why he has to be featured in an
Speaker 1: a by time match. Alright, one of the matches and
Speaker 1: we will hit the break, we'll get to one Rombow
Speaker 1: and they'll get to the other rubble, and that is
Speaker 1: Becky Lynch defending her title versus Oscar. And I love
Speaker 1: when falls into these uh storylines that they never planned right. So,
Speaker 1: for reasons unconscionable, Becky tapped out to Oscar last year
Speaker 1: the Royal Rumbo. The only reason was because she wouldn't
Speaker 1: see her winning the row Bow coming, even though everybody
Speaker 1: knew she was gonna win, So she taps out to
Speaker 1: Oscar last year, and where did they go with it nowhere?
Speaker 1: They don't mention it for a good year. And then
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Becky hasn't defended the title like
Speaker 1: six months, and they needed a challenger for her because
Speaker 1: she wasn't gonna be in the rub but you have
Speaker 1: to feature one of your biggest stars on the show.
Speaker 1: They needed an opponent for her, so oh, they somehow
Speaker 1: somebody pitched, Hey, Becky can't beat Oscar. She's never beating Oscar.
Speaker 1: She tapped out one year ago to Oscar, and it's
Speaker 1: turned into you know, honesty. The match I'm most looking
Speaker 1: forward to on this card is Becky versus Oscar. I
Speaker 1: think Oscar gets the most out of Becky. Her match
Speaker 1: last year at Roy Rabel's arguably the best match of
Speaker 1: Becky's career. It was fantastic, it was enjoyable. You didn't
Speaker 1: know who's gonna win. You do know who's gonna win
Speaker 1: this time because where the storyline has to take you.
Speaker 1: But I'm excited for Becky and Oscar. I thought this match.
Speaker 1: I think this match has been built up hello the
Speaker 1: other title match as the best match on the show
Speaker 1: on the card. Johnny looking forward to this one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I gotta agree to you on that one. I think
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a really good match. But like you said,
Speaker 1: it's pretty obviously he's gonna win this one. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be Becky Lynch. I think she's also on a straight
Speaker 1: shot to Mania as the champion of that title for
Speaker 1: a full year. I agree. I think that's gonna be
Speaker 1: the storyline there, and then she's gonna she's gonna go
Speaker 1: at it just like I'm the man. No one could
Speaker 1: beat me. Kevin. It's just frustrating moment they did fall
Speaker 1: backwards into this because we should be entering this match
Speaker 1: without this off he has answer that Becky is going
Speaker 1: to be winning her There is a great story to
Speaker 1: be told. Oscar should be booked as one of the
Speaker 1: top wrestlers in the entire company. She's the tag champion.
Speaker 1: No one even at the moment, really nobody cares about
Speaker 1: those titles right now, Like this should be a beautifully
Speaker 1: told story. One year later at the Rumble, Becky finds
Speaker 1: a way and continues this incredible run with the title,
Speaker 1: and instead it's I hope the match is good. We
Speaker 1: all know the result. Yeah, and that's okay, and Becky
Speaker 1: still remains the hottest seeing the company. She is the
Speaker 1: biggest star in the company mainstream. Her and Roman together
Speaker 1: uh are they have the company on their backs and
Speaker 1: it works. You hear the pops, you see the merchandise,
Speaker 1: and the shows are built around her. And for good reason.
Speaker 1: She uh she's everything she says she was, and it's
Speaker 1: worth And you know, they fell asked backwards into the storyline,
Speaker 1: just like they fell ask backwards into Becky Lynch. And
Speaker 1: you can say what you want about Charlotte, truly that
Speaker 1: they wanted her to be the person, but I wanted
Speaker 1: her to be the man for lack of better term,
Speaker 1: and that became Becky. And for a good reason. She's
Speaker 1: taking the ball and she's running with her. But who's
Speaker 1: gonna face Becky Lynch at WrestleMania When we come back,
Speaker 1: We're going to we'll give you our predictions here for
Speaker 1: who wins the Women's Royal Rumble. We'll give you our
Speaker 1: predictions here for who faces Becky Lynch at WrestleMania, and
Speaker 1: we'll break down the rumble, the surprises, the what to expect,
Speaker 1: Who eliminates who, Who's gonna fight to Romania We're gonna
Speaker 1: talk about all of it on the other side. So
Speaker 1: much more to come here on the BFFs. Are you

Speaker 1: Forgotten anything, Johnny? I don't think so. Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: we're good. All right, we're right to Rocky. Let's do it.
Speaker 1: The Women's Royal Rumble is up first. Now I know
Speaker 1: you normally you you sent me your your brother sent
Speaker 1: me a whole bunch of questions that you normally come
Speaker 1: up to. I've skipped everything until the rumbles, but you
Speaker 1: know it's pretty pretty standard. All right, here we go,
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go through. Johnny comes up with a
Speaker 1: sheet that we don't really all fill out. We see
Speaker 1: who wins. Johnny usually wins by Johnny. All right, Women's
Speaker 1: rolling on the match, Keevil, start with you? Who enters
Speaker 1: number one? Wow? Um? Give me? And this is the
Speaker 1: interesting right because we don't really know, you know, who's
Speaker 1: like the whole field? Right, So you want to get
Speaker 1: a decent crowd reaction. Someone who can I think also
Speaker 1: hang for the length I'll take. Sasha Banks such such
Speaker 1: a base. Uh, it's always one or two. In the
Speaker 1: two years that she's done this something like that, it's
Speaker 1: been one or two both times. I believe you're saying
Speaker 1: she made three for three. John He's number one for you.
Speaker 1: I'm going with Alexa Bliss. That's cool. That kind of
Speaker 1: fits the mold. We haven't really seen her do much lately,
Speaker 1: and I think we better way to show off your
Speaker 1: talent and be number one in the rumble. So I'm
Speaker 1: kind of mean tooth. I love where you're going with
Speaker 1: Alexa Bliss. Where you go with Sasha makes sense. I
Speaker 1: think you get a chance of one and two being
Speaker 1: Sasha and Charlotte. I think you can always been back
Speaker 1: to that in some order. That gets everything that you want,
Speaker 1: but you also need because there are so a few
Speaker 1: females that are super over. Charlotte's one of those, So
Speaker 1: you're gonna get that massive pop somewhere. I really like
Speaker 1: the Alexa Bliss call at number one because you have
Speaker 1: that for injury music so good where it's don and
Speaker 1: you're like, all right, get the big pop, right, that's cool.
Speaker 1: I'll agree with you because I can't get any better
Speaker 1: like alexiblit number one. Tell me because you're now the
Speaker 1: one in my in my mind, and be shocked she's
Speaker 1: not coming at one. Who comes at it too? So
Speaker 1: I heard about someone returning. I'm gonna go with Naomi's
Speaker 1: whole like I feel the glow entrance. That's what I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go with on that one. That's cool. If we're
Speaker 1: gonna go with Kanda Sasha coming out, I think I
Speaker 1: really like we're saying with Greg with in terms of
Speaker 1: Charlotte being able to come out, because when it's one
Speaker 1: and two, you want a moment between whoever or one
Speaker 1: and to stand in the ring. I'll do an n
Speaker 1: x D call up. I'll go Tony Storm, all right,
Speaker 1: Tony Storm because the people the building will care and
Speaker 1: nobody else will. That's Tony Storm for you. She is
Speaker 1: in town for where worlds collide. She I believe is
Speaker 1: facing Riha Ripley, who probably will be in the rumbles,
Speaker 1: should go a nice pop at some point as well. Uh,
Speaker 1: Tony Storm, why not? She's like half blonde these days.
Speaker 1: Tony Storm. So Tony Storm versus Sasha Bays I'd be
Speaker 1: pretty cool. Yeah, that's a pretty cool domination. I will
Speaker 1: go with somebody else that we haven't spoken about that
Speaker 1: I think is going to return. I think it'll be
Speaker 1: Alexiblis one. Nia Jack's a number two. Of course they
Speaker 1: have history together, the history together. It's a return. She'll
Speaker 1: get some crowd reactions from which is really what you're
Speaker 1: looking for. I think they only makes sense. I think
Speaker 1: Tony Storm makes sense in their own right. But I
Speaker 1: will go with Nya. Jack's number two in the Royal Rumbo?
Speaker 1: All right, who has the most eliminations? Kevin, It hasn't
Speaker 1: for me. I feel strongly it has to be Charlotte
Speaker 1: Flair because this is this is a record that matters
Speaker 1: in terms of the roy Rumble last the longest and
Speaker 1: who has the most eliminations, and you Charlotte is going
Speaker 1: to by the time she retires have one of the
Speaker 1: most impressive resumes that you will ever see any wrestler,
Speaker 1: male or female with. This will be another one that
Speaker 1: she'll be able to put on or her belt. Charlotte
Speaker 1: Flare eliminates most people. I was gonna go with Charlotte Flair.
Speaker 1: I think that they've been billing her as like the
Speaker 1: woman for this this from work here, so I'm gonna
Speaker 1: agree that she's gonna have the most do nations in
Speaker 1: this match. Yeah, it seriously makes sense. I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: argue with you, guys. I like it. I think Charlotte
Speaker 1: could definitely do that. They never been back. Also makes
Speaker 1: sense going back to that because like the use does
Speaker 1: her back, so she can come back now if man
Speaker 1: Jack's comes out at two though, like you're saying, I mean,
Speaker 1: she's someone who's gonna be able to eliminate a lot
Speaker 1: of people even at two. Though even if she's in
Speaker 1: there untill ten, she could get like six. Sure, I listen,
Speaker 1: I'm not disagreeing with any of that. Um Like the
Speaker 1: Charlotte idea, I think that ultimately makes trying to talk
Speaker 1: him off for our answer, Johnny, next question, who lasts
Speaker 1: longest in the rumble? Johnny, I'm also gonna go with
Speaker 1: Charlotte Flair here. I think she's coming in early. Stay.
Speaker 1: She couldn't like number three stayed in the end. Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: probably between like three and ten, and I think she's
Speaker 1: gonna be like there till the end. I'll say this,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take her at three. Isn't that when her
Speaker 1: dad came in to win the rumble? That can maybe
Speaker 1: one and to three. I like that symmetry. She stays
Speaker 1: into the end and loses. But I'll think Charlotte Flarett
Speaker 1: number three she's going down lasting the longest. I mean
Speaker 1: it's kind of connected, but for me again at Sasha Banks.
Speaker 1: Even if she's not one or two, I think she's
Speaker 1: out there by the top town, and I think she's
Speaker 1: out there until at least the final five. All right,
Speaker 1: give me the surprise entry. We were all kind of
Speaker 1: named once. Let's do another one. It is the women's Rumbles,
Speaker 1: so it it's a little bit easier because we don't
Speaker 1: really know that many participants. I've already said, Nia Jacks,
Speaker 1: you've gone with Tony Storm, You've gone with Naomi. Let's
Speaker 1: go around the room again. I'll start with you for
Speaker 1: this one. A surprise editent in the Royal Room really
Speaker 1: doesn't count. Yeah, And I don't know how much of
Speaker 1: a surprise, but I think Bianca bel Air or someone
Speaker 1: that I really want to be teatured in Miss Royal Rumble.
Speaker 1: I think she has star potential. Uh that is very
Speaker 1: very clear to see. And I'd like to see her
Speaker 1: come in and have a couple of really cool moments.
Speaker 1: And they're gonna go at Kenneth lay in this match.
Speaker 1: I think you know she's a she's a good worker
Speaker 1: down NXC needs some talent to mess with the upper
Speaker 1: yupper talent, So I think it's gonna go with that.
Speaker 1: So I think I will go with Casey Canazara because
Speaker 1: she had a cool moment last I think they could
Speaker 1: do something cool again in that in that role for her. Uh,
Speaker 1: so we'll go with her. All right? Up next and
Speaker 1: Johnny Staffle's questions, here, give me your final four, john Hey,
Speaker 1: I got Charlotte Flair, Shana Basler Italia. I had to
Speaker 1: pick a I want to pick a dark horse out
Speaker 1: of the dark Why do you like to her? Achilles
Speaker 1: not agree. I don't think she'll be back in time.
Speaker 1: Maybe next year's rumble. Okay again, uh we's talk about saying,
Speaker 1: how about Ronda Rowsy? Sure you gotta go with that?
Speaker 1: There you go, Kevin, Yeah, I'll go Sasha, Charlotte, Shana, Rhonda.
Speaker 1: I don't know if we'll get four for four, but
Speaker 1: if all four of those women are in the match,
Speaker 1: basically it's if Ronda will be in the match, that
Speaker 1: will be the final four. The standoff will be incredible
Speaker 1: for horsewomen stuff all that. Yes, I think those three
Speaker 1: makes sense, Sasha, Shana, and Charlotte. I don't think if
Speaker 1: Rhonda's in the rumble she wins, but I will haven't
Speaker 1: given my pick out on air yet, And because I
Speaker 1: don't think Rhonda wins the rumbull, I don't think Rhonda's
Speaker 1: in the rumble, So I will say it's Sasha, I
Speaker 1: will say it's Charlotte. I will say it's Shana, And
Speaker 1: that means I really could use another face. That's Holly.
Speaker 1: You mentioned the so for me another face? Gosh, he's no,
Speaker 1: there's no issue. Um, I will go We'll go with
Speaker 1: Billy K. Let's go Billy K. So she looks around like, oh,
Speaker 1: oh damn, what did I do the star last year
Speaker 1: when she refused to enter the rank, She's like, I'm
Speaker 1: waiting for Baton. Was the best? Should have lasted so
Speaker 1: much longer. You know what, it's not gonna Billy Can's
Speaker 1: and Joe. I think really Ripley as one of the
Speaker 1: final four. That's really good. That's cool, that's cool, right?
Speaker 1: Who wins the Women's Royal Rumble? For me, I've been
Speaker 1: saying it for months since Survivor series. It was the
Speaker 1: only thing that made sense. Shana Basler wins the row.
Speaker 1: Robot goes on the face. Becky beat Becky at WrestleMania. Uh,
Speaker 1: it's a challenger has been built up, She's done everything
Speaker 1: she can in n XD. It will either be Shane
Speaker 1: Beseler Rondo Rousy against Becky Lynch at WrestleMania. I think
Speaker 1: they said this entire thing up for Shana. She's might
Speaker 1: picked them with the Rubbot Johnny, I'm also gonna go
Speaker 1: with Shana Basler. I think she's I think that's the
Speaker 1: biggest lock of the night, right, So yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: predictability Sometimes it's okay because it means it's the right answer.
Speaker 1: I think Shana makes all the sense in the world
Speaker 1: and honestly right with terms of the Rhonda stuff. Part
Speaker 1: of the reason why I don't think it could be
Speaker 1: Rhonda is if she comes back, it's fair to say
Speaker 1: Fox would really want their hands on her. She does
Speaker 1: not make as much sense I believe into the Bailey
Speaker 1: and the Sasha on the SmackDown sides of the thing. Obviously, right,
Speaker 1: it's her and Becky who are connected. So I think
Speaker 1: it is Shana Basla. It's a great point. It's a
Speaker 1: really really smart point. If Ronda's back, She's going on Fox.
Speaker 1: Like they put every put Roman on Fox, they put
Speaker 1: Coal Engraves on five. It's like Ronda goes to Fox.
Speaker 1: When she goes back. I'm sure that's in an agreement somewhere,
Speaker 1: and it doesn't make sense. I think it's a really
Speaker 1: really good point with you here, with Shane as well. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have to be the only way if she would
Speaker 1: actually basically have to win the Rumble and take her
Speaker 1: shots sooner get the title and then be smacked a
Speaker 1: women's champ and then go versus Becky in a title
Speaker 1: like champion versus Champion match at Mania. And I just
Speaker 1: think we're doing too much. I think Shana makes a
Speaker 1: lot of sense. All right, anything else on the Women's Rumble,
Speaker 1: you want to mention any other surprise than any other
Speaker 1: anything else that you're thinking of, Johnny, No, not really,
Speaker 1: that's not helpful. I think the really interesting thing here
Speaker 1: is the confidence that we all have in Shana Basler.
Speaker 1: I think it does say a lot to her run
Speaker 1: in n x T, because people coming up from n
Speaker 1: x T and winning, I don't think it's something that
Speaker 1: we've really seen a lot during this run, but as
Speaker 1: n x T s build credibility. But you look at it,
Speaker 1: she has dominated every single person that she's gone verse
Speaker 1: during that run, and she has the charisma, the character,
Speaker 1: the presence if you will to stand across the ring
Speaker 1: from Becky Lynch. There was a shot the other night
Speaker 1: when she was in that Battle Royal for the next
Speaker 1: shot at the Women's UH Next two Women's Championship, and
Speaker 1: every single woman is staring at her and she's just like,
Speaker 1: come on, let's do it. And typically right, that's like
Speaker 1: something that you would see from The Big Show or
Speaker 1: brock Lessner. Shana Basler does it and it's like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: she's badass. So now question Sina wins, Rumble goes to
Speaker 1: me and fight Becky. Do we finally get entrance wives
Speaker 1: like four horsemen and four horsemen? No? No, no, because
Speaker 1: I think Bailey and Sash are doing their own things still.
Speaker 1: I think we we discussed well unless where Charlotte Flair Dorrestmania,
Speaker 1: you gotta do something the it's if Ronda's back and
Speaker 1: if Rohn is not in any of these title pictures,
Speaker 1: that makes sense. The only thing for Rona makes sense
Speaker 1: is Becky right now? And does Becky even really makes
Speaker 1: sense right now? It makes sense because Becky's Nolan that's
Speaker 1: ever beaten here, So it has to be Becky if
Speaker 1: we all agree it's not because it's Shana. What is Charlotte.
Speaker 1: Do Now here's another angle, right, Rhonda wins the Robot,
Speaker 1: Charlotte fight China, Like, all right, I think we're all
Speaker 1: signing up for that. That's cool. You give me Rhonda, Becky,
Speaker 1: Charlotte and Shana. That sounds awesome. Another example, Shana wins
Speaker 1: the room she fights Bailey. Fine, then you get Ronda
Speaker 1: and Becky still but it goes back to the Rhonda
Speaker 1: and Fox thing, which have figured out in my head yet.
Speaker 1: But there are different ways to do this. I always
Speaker 1: when it comes to w W A, you always go
Speaker 1: with the lowest common denominator, which is the most obvious thing,
Speaker 1: which is SHANEA is winning the room wall facing Becky.
Speaker 1: Moving on, I'll throw another one out there, right Rustlemania,
Speaker 1: a lot of people come back. If Oscar and Kyrie
Speaker 1: Sane are still on their ron. If they're and they're
Speaker 1: messing with Charlotte, she needs a partner falls up for Stratus.
Speaker 1: Is it? That sounds good? That's a Mania caliber match.
Speaker 1: That is that makes sense? I can buy that. I
Speaker 1: mean the next team of Charlotte Maybe why it's tough
Speaker 1: because we don't know any of the relationships between the
Speaker 1: next peoples. There are done. All right? Man struggles up next?
Speaker 1: Are you ready for the nation's first and only, free,
Speaker 1: twenty four hour network dedicated to you, the betting and
Speaker 1: fantasy sports enthusiast. Sports Grade will provide you with a
Speaker 1: real time content, statistics and gaming intelligence unlike anything you've
Speaker 1: ever seen before. Located both in the heart of New
Speaker 1: York City and inside the FanDuel Sports book at the
Speaker 1: Metal Lands, sports Crade is live eighteen hours a day,
Speaker 1: here to serve you the fanatic. This is sports Gride.
Speaker 1: Get off the grid. All right, we're back, BFFs. It's
Speaker 1: a men's real rumble. Let's keep going baby. Wait, all right,
Speaker 1: men's royal rum But we already know. Rock Lesner is
Speaker 1: coming out number one overall, easy cheving. He's entering the rumble.
Speaker 1: They didn't really explain why, just that he's done everything else,
Speaker 1: so why not. The real answer, of course, is well,
Speaker 1: he's gotta find someone to fight a Mania. Whoever eliminates
Speaker 1: Brock will presumably be the challenger for Rock Lesner at WrestleMania.
Speaker 1: Of course, if he wins the role. Bole. I haven't
Speaker 1: really said, like what happens. They haven't even said like, hey,
Speaker 1: you can they can just make something up. He's not
Speaker 1: winning because just like all right, you pick your challenger
Speaker 1: or you get to miss the Roads or Wrestlmania whatever.
Speaker 1: They never said anything. So that was chilly, but that's fine.
Speaker 1: Um anyway, So Rock Lesner is entering number one, which
Speaker 1: is kind of like, I guess, like a cool tweak.
Speaker 1: What do you think at that? Johnny Early fan of this?
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm torn between the two worlds, Like, would
Speaker 1: I'd rather see Rock fight someone who I know Rock
Speaker 1: is gonna beat, right, or see him do something different
Speaker 1: in the rumble, but just putting your world champing in
Speaker 1: the rumble just I don't know, it's like a bad
Speaker 1: taste in my mouth. You don't like it? Nope, not
Speaker 1: at all. I'm a big fan actually for me, every match,
Speaker 1: every single time he's been wrestling out the Rumble. Some
Speaker 1: of them have been good matching, right, the Finn Baller
Speaker 1: match was good. It's waste of time, we know he's
Speaker 1: gonna win, and seven scene of match is awesome. Yeah, Like,
Speaker 1: I I like what I like about this as well.
Speaker 1: Two aspects. One they told us if he would have
Speaker 1: randomly came out like at like twenty and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: you've got to be kids, like, please don't do this now.
Speaker 1: He's at one, Like there's intrigue. We're aware of it.
Speaker 1: And I'm a very big fan of whoever eliminates him.
Speaker 1: It's a title match. I like that, it is simple,
Speaker 1: simple booking. I am a big fan. Okay, So the
Speaker 1: question obviously becomes who's number two? And I don't think
Speaker 1: Brock lives are stays in here forever and like he's
Speaker 1: not staying in for an hour or anything like that.
Speaker 1: I don't necessarily the person that comes at it to
Speaker 1: eliminates him. To me, you're gonna get somebody at two. Um,
Speaker 1: who's gonna be agile, that can move, that can that
Speaker 1: can flip essentially for Brock. So you go back to
Speaker 1: a Ray Masterio type of person. They have some history there.
Speaker 1: It could be it could be ray Um you mentioned
Speaker 1: him balas someone like that. Aj Styles makes sense, like
Speaker 1: all those kind of guys that work with Brock. In
Speaker 1: a way. Ricochet had a little thing with Brock this
Speaker 1: past week on Roy. I think, um, all those guys
Speaker 1: makes sense at number two. But Johnny, who is your
Speaker 1: pick a number two? I'm thinking big here, thinking big.
Speaker 1: Moment seems silly of you's the biggest thing in the
Speaker 1: company car. But I'm gonna go with Keith Lee. Okay,
Speaker 1: didna get Keith Lee face face of Brock. It's been
Speaker 1: talked about for a while, I think, and I think
Speaker 1: these two are gonna go at it. And like you said,
Speaker 1: Keith Lee's definitely agile, big guy, but he's agile, he
Speaker 1: can move around. Okay, So I believe that, unlike most years,
Speaker 1: we're going to have a bunch of different people with
Speaker 1: face off with the number one entrance because it's Brock.
Speaker 1: So let's start off with some comedy our truth. Fair enough.
Speaker 1: They alluded to that on a roll recently as well.
Speaker 1: So for me, when it comes to Brock at the
Speaker 1: beginning of the rubble, I think about it like this.
Speaker 1: They gotta show him dominant. He's gonna have all these
Speaker 1: people come up up for him, throw him out, and
Speaker 1: throw them out, and throw them out until somebody like
Speaker 1: a Keith Lee, like a Cane of Alaska is we'll
Speaker 1: get the end of the second Um like Matt Riddle,
Speaker 1: who you alluded to earlier, Kevin Um, those guys will
Speaker 1: face to face and it won't be so easy for Rock.
Speaker 1: We gotta get it moving. Where Rock is just sitting
Speaker 1: in the ring by himself, just kind of waiting and
Speaker 1: waiting and waiting and waiting for what. I don't know,
Speaker 1: So like if if Chad Gable wasn't wrestling somewhere something
Speaker 1: like that. So for me, my number two picked to
Speaker 1: come out, we stop for Ali. I think we stop
Speaker 1: Ali will be number two. But but let me ask
Speaker 1: you guys this, how many entrance do we get before
Speaker 1: it is a third body in the ring? I think
Speaker 1: you get. I think there's gonna be like two or
Speaker 1: three guys that Rock just throws out, and then it'll
Speaker 1: be somebody big that comes into fights with him. Then
Speaker 1: the third body comes in and then starts filling up.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that where the big bodies will eliminate
Speaker 1: him already. Let someone go face to face to head
Speaker 1: with him, and then the third body will come in.
Speaker 1: But I think you need to show him as his
Speaker 1: dominant force early, and that's why you get someone like
Speaker 1: a bump and I think we stop all these that
Speaker 1: kind of guy. Sure, yeah, no, there's a random one.
Speaker 1: Well why not? Like I think, I think the Keith
Speaker 1: Lee standoff is very in play. I just think he
Speaker 1: might be like fifth, right, and he's the first guy
Speaker 1: that stops Rock from throwing every single person over. And
Speaker 1: that's how we get number six, seven, eight in the ring.
Speaker 1: And then we get to who actually eliminates? All right,
Speaker 1: so who does eliminate Rock Lesner? Oh, gosh, okay, it's
Speaker 1: really I heart head, heart head. I'm competitive. I want
Speaker 1: the point Cane Alaska's. I also, I'm gonna choose camb
Speaker 1: Alaska is. But I'm I'm in the same boat. It's
Speaker 1: it's torn between heart and head. It's like, what do
Speaker 1: I want to happen? And what's gonna happen? I agree,
Speaker 1: you guys, sleep for three. I think it's camb Alaska
Speaker 1: is that they had a really short, terrible match in
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia. Camb Alaska is here along here, Now, this
Speaker 1: is what he does, supposedly, and you know, eliminating Brock
Speaker 1: Brock to manage to fight of Alaska's at Mania, the
Speaker 1: story rights itself. Um, I agree, it will became Alaska
Speaker 1: is uh and Rock Lesner a Mania and he will
Speaker 1: be the new world champion. Col Um should be Matt
Speaker 1: Riddle though, all right, you go with your heart, you know,
Speaker 1: Kevin it's Matt Riddle. He when he was on the
Speaker 1: Independence he was he used to sold sell merch that said,
Speaker 1: retire Brock brock Lessner. He can do this. He has
Speaker 1: star written all over him. It is so obvious. It
Speaker 1: is clear as day. Let him retire Brock Lesner. He
Speaker 1: can be the face of the company. Changing my number
Speaker 1: two pick by the way, changing who it is not
Speaker 1: not a big enough name, the same concept, but not
Speaker 1: a big enough name. It's gonna be Adam Cole. So
Speaker 1: we could do the Adam Cole thing in the ring
Speaker 1: and then on this Futi arrow come out that try
Speaker 1: to beat on Brock and he'll just throw them all.
Speaker 1: So that's my new answer, Adam Cole. That would be horrible.
Speaker 1: I would now wants like to just be dominated by
Speaker 1: brock Lesner. Well that's kind of how the company works. Well,
Speaker 1: absolutely correct. Walter will be pretty cool too, all right,
Speaker 1: who are you going into your heart? Oh my heart?
Speaker 1: Not most of my heart, more of what I would
Speaker 1: want to see happen. I would choose Drew McIntire. I
Speaker 1: think they've been building him really, really good right now.
Speaker 1: I think he definitely has the the size to match
Speaker 1: up a Brock Lestener. So that's why I choose on
Speaker 1: that one and my heart. I alluded to it in
Speaker 1: the pole at Fantasy VFS. It's Russef. Russey is a
Speaker 1: big dude. He's ripped beyond the leaf. Now he's beating
Speaker 1: down and beating down. What is a better redemption story
Speaker 1: than Russa eliminating rock Lessener going on in media winning
Speaker 1: the title with everybody in Tava chanting Russef day, that's
Speaker 1: freaking cool, Russef, have away, you chacking your head. It's
Speaker 1: just it's awesome. It's I love Roussette. So what are
Speaker 1: you complaining about? Because he's this storyline is they're not
Speaker 1: taking him from the wedding to eliminating Brock, nor should
Speaker 1: they take him from the web. What's the main event
Speaker 1: segment every night, russev It's tod It's so terrible, it's
Speaker 1: so terrible. It is pretty good. I kind of look
Speaker 1: forward to it. Live Morgan like comes back and looking
Speaker 1: better than ever, Like I'm in alright, stay all right?
Speaker 1: Who lasts the shortest? The Royal boll Our truth our truth,
Speaker 1: let me go at otis and that's why he's gonna
Speaker 1: last the shortest. This is too big is too big
Speaker 1: the last the shortest. That's not true. If if he
Speaker 1: walks into that ring and matches Brock lesar and tell
Speaker 1: me Brock talk just gonna throw him out, he's too big,
Speaker 1: a little caterpillar. That would be a fun little face off.
Speaker 1: I will say, who loves to shortest? As a surprise entrance?
Speaker 1: What will be? Uh? Santino? Who might walk into Brock
Speaker 1: and then just turn around and walk home like that
Speaker 1: could be number two? Also he just walks in the rumbo,
Speaker 1: sees Brock and then just turns around eliminates himself. Great
Speaker 1: Maverick would be a really funny one. That's a good
Speaker 1: one too. That's one as well, all right? Uh, I
Speaker 1: named Santino. We've talked a lot around this and before
Speaker 1: the show began, Johnny, you believe Edges making his return
Speaker 1: to the Royal Rubble. Yes, I think that's another lock
Speaker 1: of the night. Why do you think that there's a
Speaker 1: lot of stories. You know, he's in shape, he's he's
Speaker 1: been training, and I've been hearing throughout the the internet
Speaker 1: that you know, contracts are being mind and I think
Speaker 1: this is it. I think Edge comes back, you know,
Speaker 1: goes in the rumble, he goes on to me and
Speaker 1: it gets his final his final match. M. Yeah, you guys, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I could see it, but I don't. I'm
Speaker 1: not stealing your pop. I'm not taking your answer. So
Speaker 1: as far as a cool surprise entrant, John, where's he been?
Speaker 1: He's got to come back at some point and he
Speaker 1: could he see if Edge comes back, right, he really
Speaker 1: really should win. Maybe he's it's down in the last two,
Speaker 1: but like he probably should win. Cina doesn't have to win,
Speaker 1: all right, So John Cena and as you know he
Speaker 1: has both going to old school. Uh with your surprises,
Speaker 1: it's interesting because there's not like a lot a lot
Speaker 1: of spots left. There's other women that could be anybody.
Speaker 1: It doesn't seem to be a lot of spots left.
Speaker 1: I think the people would declared there was like maybe
Speaker 1: like nineteen or something like that. But there's a lot
Speaker 1: of people that didn't declare, Like the miss and John
Speaker 1: Morrison are going to be in the rumble absolutely, you know,
Speaker 1: like Lashly and Roussel are in it yet, like they'll
Speaker 1: be in the rumbo probably, you know. I don't, so
Speaker 1: I don't know. Um, there's not too many spots for surprises.
Speaker 1: I think there's like he said, I just counted on
Speaker 1: Wikipedia and I counted quickly, but I think there's like
Speaker 1: twenty six and I'm pretty sure Kane of Alaska's his
Speaker 1: name is also not on this list, and if I'm
Speaker 1: not mistaken, during like a press store, he confirmed like
Speaker 1: he will be in the Royal Rumble, So edge see,
Speaker 1: I think there might only be like one spot left.
Speaker 1: I don't know that scene is gonna be in it. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I know that sure, but here at theoretically on be
Speaker 1: like three surprise surprise spots if you do. Missing Morrison
Speaker 1: might not leave only like one, right, I can't. I
Speaker 1: don't see why missing Morrison wouldn't be in it, right
Speaker 1: unless they unless they throw together his Fried or its
Speaker 1: back tis on tonight, unless they throw together tax TI
Speaker 1: match title matter. Cope, he's got in it? Is he is?
Speaker 1: He on that list? Right? So they're all in it,
Speaker 1: and Biggie is it as well? All right, so they
Speaker 1: won't think we have a tag team match. That's fine,
Speaker 1: all right. You wanted a surprise for me, all right,
Speaker 1: I'll give you a surprise, Dominic mysterio. There's a surprise
Speaker 1: for you. How does that how's that? What if? What
Speaker 1: if Ray is two and dom is three? Guys like that?
Speaker 1: I just I like the idea Dominic Masterio getting involved three.
Speaker 1: Do you buy it? I mean yeah, I could fantastic? Okay? Uh?
Speaker 1: Final four on a four in your shamp keV who um,
Speaker 1: all right, let's go. Don't ever call you big sexes?
Speaker 1: That was that a thing for you when you were
Speaker 1: growing up? Because nae, yeah, I mean I don't know
Speaker 1: if anybody sincerely meant it because I was far too young,
Speaker 1: you know. Basically, he tried to sell He tried to
Speaker 1: sell it. It didn't go over. Uh. Final four. Roman
Speaker 1: reigns Baron Corbin, Kevin Owens, Samoa Joe. Here's the thing.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing. We don't actually know that Roman's not
Speaker 1: on that list. They're doing this false count anywhere. I
Speaker 1: hate that. I despise it. It's stupid. It shouldn't be
Speaker 1: a thing. I don't like the Final four. I just
Speaker 1: gave out. I hope I'm dead wrong, but I like points. Johnny.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Roman, Drew some moo Joe Brus
Speaker 1: way better than Samoa Joe from what I said. And
Speaker 1: I guess Kane of Alaska's I will go with Roman,
Speaker 1: I will go with Drew, I will go with Seth,
Speaker 1: and I will go with Randy. This is my final four.
Speaker 1: This is the thing. So if not until I get ahead, right,
Speaker 1: but if people believe Roman is going to that's my
Speaker 1: that's my pick. Johnny, same thing. Um I refused to
Speaker 1: say him. I'll take Kevin Owens. It makes it makes
Speaker 1: no sense. But why why would you do this? You
Speaker 1: have worked so hard to try and get him back
Speaker 1: to positive reactions, consistent positive reactions. It's working right now
Speaker 1: because he is next to most hated man in the company.
Speaker 1: It was terrible Baron Corbin. And this is why I
Speaker 1: now do somewhat see the Roman thing becoming plausible. It is,
Speaker 1: but it is why you really called me off guard
Speaker 1: with your final four. There. If they're going to have
Speaker 1: Roman win, he's eliminating Corbin. That's why I think Corbin
Speaker 1: might beat him earlier on in the night, because the
Speaker 1: finish to the storyline comes actually later in the night
Speaker 1: and not from their match. True, I believe that Kevin Owen.
Speaker 1: This is so it's it's so weird to me. I
Speaker 1: understand right, you believe it's Roman. I don't know how
Speaker 1: you believe it is more likely that Russev wins than
Speaker 1: Kevin owns. Like they very Kevin owensers brock Lesner. What
Speaker 1: that doesn't make sense? Why does that? Kevin Owens is
Speaker 1: someone that they've put the universal title on before he
Speaker 1: lost that title because Goldberg needed it to beat Brocklyn.
Speaker 1: Kevin Owens should be the face of w w E.
Speaker 1: Russev is currently trying to get back with his wife
Speaker 1: who still his wife, who's not his wife but is
Speaker 1: his wife, but it's not his wife Ken because an
Speaker 1: overweight do with tattoos and a raggedy beard. It never happened.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's there's differences between the face of w
Speaker 1: W E, which is just going to whatever forever be,
Speaker 1: Roman reigns, but they also tried to make a Charlotte
Speaker 1: flair and it became Becky Lynch. Like at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, what's most important is being the most
Speaker 1: over person in the company. Kevin Owens can do that.
Speaker 1: I can think you can make the case of Samoa
Speaker 1: Joe is more over than Kevin Owens. I would agree
Speaker 1: with that. I mean, Joe did just come back. There's
Speaker 1: a freshness to it. I'm not I'm not disagreeing on
Speaker 1: that front, but in terms of sustainability, I think Joe's answer, yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like especially with Samoa, Joe like, he's just
Speaker 1: We've got three questions coming up, three minutes. We got

Speaker 1: Come next? Wag your talk on Friday audition of the program? Alright,
Speaker 1: Three questions, three minutes, written by our own Johnny Stanford. Johnny,
Speaker 1: what is your favorite Royal Rumble match? So I try
Speaker 1: to think of one that I've actually seen in my lifetime,
Speaker 1: not like gone back and watched, and the one that
Speaker 1: sticks out to me is two thousand and five, Fatista
Speaker 1: when the Royal rumble everyone yep, and like they messed
Speaker 1: up the end. They had to they had to restart
Speaker 1: the match, and you were like, what we restarted on
Speaker 1: the whole rumbo? Like what's going on here in store?
Speaker 1: Both of quads getting to the ring. That was pretty great. Yeah,
Speaker 1: fives as big as lot of the night, as Kevin saying,
Speaker 1: oh eight, when John Cena made his dramatic return, I
Speaker 1: was there live. You don't have to go to me
Speaker 1: if you don't want to. It was the best thing
Speaker 1: in the world. I mean, I was thirteen after time too,
Speaker 1: so like we didn't like there was no spoilers, We
Speaker 1: knew nothing. I thought he was never coming back, and
Speaker 1: that's the one thing and I'll never looking up to
Speaker 1: find out. I still believe it was some super human
Speaker 1: recovery that made no sense. And I do not want
Speaker 1: to know if it was like on schedule and people
Speaker 1: on the dirt sheets new no so being much older
Speaker 1: than you guys, there was like a there was like
Speaker 1: a little talk out Casine to be there when he
Speaker 1: came out, like we're all stunned. It was. It was
Speaker 1: it was really really cool it was not the Garden,
Speaker 1: which was awesome. It was cool for me. I'll go
Speaker 1: back show my age because when I was nine years
Speaker 1: old and maybe seven, snuggled Steve. Auston wins the rumble
Speaker 1: and he throws up red heart illegally, and I was
Speaker 1: so it was a limiting I was so angry and
Speaker 1: I hated Austin. I hated Austin ninety seven like really
Speaker 1: sticks out in my mind. And then they restarted the
Speaker 1: Final Four in February. It was really cool and it
Speaker 1: wasn't the plan, but it was obviously very very cool. Okay,
Speaker 1: what is the least favorite Romo you've ever seen? Kevin Um? Honestly,
Speaker 1: the year that Roman came out as thirty very recently
Speaker 1: was that in Team I just I don't understand how
Speaker 1: they thought that was a good idea, Like, obviously that
Speaker 1: was gonna be the reaction, and what makes it ten
Speaker 1: times worse is your guy Samo Joe should have been
Speaker 1: in that spot. All right, that was hilarious. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say the year Roman one, that whole ending to that
Speaker 1: match where the rock came out and everything just didn't
Speaker 1: make any sense to me. Yeah, that one makes that
Speaker 1: one comes to mind for me when Shamus won the
Speaker 1: Rumble instead of Jericho for no reason, just because everybody
Speaker 1: knew Jericho was gonna win. That I hated that one. Also,
Speaker 1: A right favorite Rouble winner is Sena for you? I
Speaker 1: guess is his favorite wrestler Undertaker Undertaker for you? That's
Speaker 1: cool for me, I don't really care. It doesn't all right,
Speaker 1: I shouldn't say that was cool. That was cool for
Speaker 1: Johnny Stanf for the Kevin Walsh, I am Greg, He's
Speaker 1: so much for watching. Listen to the BFS. We'll come
Speaker 1: back to baseball talk and super Bowl talk next week
Speaker 1: of the show. Hold on announcements. Uen your way then,
