Those are also the 0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:54.920 only two cities that I've ever eaten in in Vancouver, 0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:57.720 and I've never gotten sick, So maybe Jeff's just soft. 0:00:58.000 --> 0:01:01.400 Today we're gonna get into w w WE Survivor series 0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:07.040 war games. In the Year of two. There was some good, 0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:10.039 there was some awful, and there was a little bit 0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:13.119 in between. But before we do that, I hope all 0:01:13.200 --> 0:01:16.880 of you had a very happy Thanksgiving. For those in America, 0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:19.080 I'm gonna tell you, guys a funny as story that 0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:22.760 happened on Wednesday. Last Wednesday, when our last episode came out, 0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:25.080 I got a new car. As some of you may know, 0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:28.040 I got a seventy six dots and two eight e z. 0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:31.440 It's just as old as me. It runs about as 0:01:31.600 --> 0:01:33.960 as well as I do, which is pretty damn good. 0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:38.600 But registering old cars, especially once from out of state, 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:41.000 is a pain in the ass. And I'm going to 0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:44.280 share with you guys funny story. So if you're a 0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:46.399 member of Triple A, which I am, God bless you 0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:48.720 Triple A, they do try to make your life easier, 0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:51.760 and I recommend using them when registering your car or 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:54.960 renewing your insurance or anything like that, because they try 0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.720 and do all the work for you just to make 0:01:57.760 --> 0:02:00.520 your life easier. I love It's mainly women at the 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:02.640 one I go to. I love these women so much, 0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:06.000 and they did everything they could to help make this 0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.280 an easier process for me. I'm getting all my paperwork done, 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.360 I have to get the car smog checked and it 0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:14.280 has to be star smog check because it's an older vehicle. 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:17.000 They made sure I knew that. They gave me options 0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:20.480 of places close by that specialized in that because they're 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:23.360 great and I did. And the guys actually both guys 0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:26.920 used to have Nissan Dots and two eighties, one guy 0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:29.440 to to Fort the other guy to two eighties. So 0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:32.440 they were just loving the car right, and the cars 0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:36.680 running great, the engine smooth, and uh, got that done, 0:02:36.760 --> 0:02:38.840 brought it back in, and they're trying to get me 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:40.520 to avoid having to go to the d m V 0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:44.880 by even calling our state's capital, Sacramento, California. But the 0:02:44.960 --> 0:02:47.000 d m V wasn't happening. They were gonna make me 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.960 come in because my car from seventy six doesn't have 0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:53.240 an engine group number. So I go to the d 0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:56.000 m V and it's not so pleasant. Woman is at 0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:59.400 the gate and she says, I need your your license 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:02.560 plate number in your registration, to which I kindly respond, 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:05.840 that's what I'm here for. I don't have a license 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:08.799 plate yet and I'm trying to register the car. She says, 0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:11.320 all right, well, I need an engine group number along 0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:14.560 with your vehicle identification number, which we know is the FINN. 0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:17.080 She could have just said, ben. I said, well, this 0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.600 is a seventy six and it doesn't have an engine 0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:21.760 group number. She says, well, then I'm afraid I can't 0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:26.040 help you right away. Just chooses violence right away. So 0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:28.600 I pull up on my phone that the seventy six 0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:32.200 dots and two eight Z doesn't have an engine group number, 0:03:32.240 --> 0:03:34.679 and that's actually why I'm here at the d m V. 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:37.560 So they can write that reasoning in so that the 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:40.360 California Highway Patrol will approve it and I can get 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:42.960 my cars registration and actually put a license plate on it. 0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:45.640 I say, well, I'm happy to show you here online. 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:48.880 She goes, I don't have to look at that. I said, okay, 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:50.840 I mean you can totally pull it up on your computer. 0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:53.840 She goes, no, you can get me an engine group number. 0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:56.760 So now I just have to repeat the same information 0:03:56.800 --> 0:04:00.440 again and say, well, this vehicle in particular doesn't have 0:04:00.480 --> 0:04:03.040 an engine group number, which is why I'm here. She says, well, 0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:05.400 then I can't help you. So now I'm left with 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:08.480 I either leave and never get the car registered, or 0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:11.000 I now go the violence root as well and say 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:13.960 I need to speak with your supervisor. So she size 0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:17.680 and goes to get this guy. So he comes up 0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:20.320 and I explained the situation to him and he says, yes, 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:22.280 of course, that car doesn't have an in your group number. 0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:25.320 And we'll just fill out right here that it doesn't 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:28.000 so that this California how it patrol doesn't give you 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:30.240 a hard time. And so now I'm dealing with this guy. 0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:32.320 Go did you train her? He said no, I said, 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:34.440 and I tell him the story. I'll spare you guys 0:04:34.520 --> 0:04:37.919 the complete repeat, but I say, everything that happens. I go, 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.719 is that how she treats everyone? Or just me? He goes, 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:42.720 I'll make sure to talk to her. Whether he did 0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:44.560 or not, he probably didn't. He doesn't want to deal 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:47.279 with it. So I get all the paperwork done. I go, okay, 0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:49.719 can you guys send this to HP? He goes, no, 0:04:49.839 --> 0:04:53.039 you have to go there. What that's why I'm here, man, 0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:55.159 I could have just gone there in the first place. 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:58.240 What are you talking about. I'm legit here so that 0:04:58.320 --> 0:05:02.200 you guys can contact c HP. This is what Triple 0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:05.040 A spoke to Sacramento about and they said this is 0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:07.800 the correct process, and that's the capital city. They have 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.400 more authority than you do. He says, no, you have 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:12.839 to go to c HP. So now this drive that 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:14.960 I made and having to wait in line, which wasn't 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:16.200 that bad. I don't want to make a sound of 0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:17.920 that bad. There were only three people in front of me. 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:19.880 But now I have to drive all the way to 0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:23.520 c HP. So now I get in my little sweet 0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:28.200 sweet asscar and I cruised down the freeway. It's about 0:05:27.240 --> 0:05:31.680 a minute drive and uh, the map quest does not 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:34.440 know where to pull in for this place. It's got 0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:36.400 me going into a closed un lock gate. So I 0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:38.360 got a cruise around the block. But I find it, 0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.839 and you, guys, there's no one there. There's and I 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:44.600 don't mean like no employees, I mean no jerks like me. 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:48.320 Every parking spot is open. I'm like, oh, thank you, 0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:51.600 thank you God. Whatever the Greek god of sweet ass 0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:54.680 cars is, thank you. It's not Apollo, but it's one 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.920 of those guys. So I pull into whatever spot I want, 0:05:57.960 --> 0:06:01.240 the closest one, right in the window, parked the car. 0:06:01.520 --> 0:06:03.719 I gotta lock it manually with the key, because the 0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:06.040 only thing power on this thing is that antenna that 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:10.000 goes up and down. Everything else is old school, to 0:06:10.120 --> 0:06:13.320 say the least. I walk in. There's no one there 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:18.200 except this officer who's behind glass and has a gun 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.480 on her hip, shaved head and braids, looking pretty sick 0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:24.160 and cool. I'm like, all right, she's looking sick and cool. 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:26.440 This would be pretty easy. So I go in. I 0:06:26.480 --> 0:06:28.960 have all my paperwork ready. I say, yeah, I'm here 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:31.480 for you guys to check the fin number and confirm 0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.520 that there's no engine group number so I can get 0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:36.960 my my registration. She says, okay, how man your paperwork 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:42.039 takes The paperwork goes through it. She says, okay. The 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:44.240 first appointment I have for you, I'm gonna throw out 0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:46.040 a fake date because I don't want anybody trying to 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:50.159 meet me. There is December at ten am. I go, 0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:54.279 I'm sorry what She goes, yeah, first available appointments December 0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:57.880 ten at ten am. I go, well, who does who 0:06:57.920 --> 0:06:59.800 does the check? Do you do it? She goes yes. 0:07:00.839 --> 0:07:03.040 So now there's this awkward pause where I'm I don't 0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:05.880 want to laugh, but I'm definitely smiling. I have a 0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:09.000 mask on, okay, because California is still pretty hardcore about that, 0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:12.440 So I'm smiling. I go, well, if you're here now 0:07:13.320 --> 0:07:16.600 and I'm here now, we could just go do it 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:20.120 right now and it'll take all of two minutes. Two 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:25.840 minutes stops. She says, December tenth, sir. I go, okay, well, 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:28.880 can you at least explain to me, you know why. 0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:32.440 She says, I don't have to do that. I go, now, 0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:35.160 I'm laughing. I go, okay, I can't. I'm not gonna 0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:37.200 yell and scream at a police officer, right, but I 0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:39.520 will laugh. So I'm laughing. I go, all right, that 0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:41.800 seems weird. I mean, you can literally see my car 0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:44.360 out the window. There's other employees here, so if you 0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:46.960 leave your desk, they can cover it and we we 0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:49.320 could just take care of it right now. Or she goes, 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:52.920 December tenth. I go, okay, December ten. She goes, I 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:56.680 need your driver's license, Like, all right, hander my driver's license. 0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:59.080 She's filling out the rest of the paperwork. She looks 0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:01.120 at the photo on the I D. She checks the 0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:03.400 name on the I D. And she kind of like 0:08:03.480 --> 0:08:06.480 pauses and double checks. And I've seen this look before. 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:09.000 That's when somebody figures out they saw me in Scooby 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.280 Doo or she's all that or some ship like that. 0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:14.000 And uh, I have a mask on again, so she 0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:16.160 couldn't she you know, she couldn't recognize me without that 0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:19.560 or with that on. And so now she goes, this 0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:22.240 is the greatest I've never gotten to get over on 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:25.680 a cop before, so she she checks the driver's license again, 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:27.520 looks up at me. She goes, can you pull down 0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:31.240 your mask? Yeah? Sure, bluf to pulled out my mask. 0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:34.160 She looks at me, and I see the eyes make recognition. 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:36.880 She goes, okay, She finishes the paper or hands me 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:39.240 my my folder back with all my crap, hands me 0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:42.680 my I d back and this woman legit says, would 0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:44.640 it be okay if I took a picture with you, 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:49.200 to which, of course, my response was absolutely, I'll see 0:08:49.200 --> 0:08:52.400 you on December ten. And I walked out the door, 0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:56.720 cut in my car, and drove away. And it was 0:08:56.800 --> 0:09:00.280 the greatest figurative middle finger that I've ever have been 0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:03.960 able to give the Los Angeles Police Department or in 0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:07.760 this case, the California Highway Patrol. She could not have 0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:10.920 been more difficult or more unpleasant. And to think that 0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:13.000 you could just ask for a photo at the end 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:16.120 of that, I'm so glad my brain was working that day. 0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:19.079 I'm so glad I drank my coffee and had the 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:22.679 wherewithal to go. Yeah, sure, December ten because the timing 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:24.840 was perfect and the look on her face she couldn't 0:09:24.840 --> 0:09:27.000 even get mad y'all. She did not have a mask on, 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.080 and she even had to kind of smirk and just 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:31.880 be like, yeah, all right, I gotta take that hit, 0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:48.240 and she had to, and it was great. Let's get 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:50.559 into some more women. They were beating the crap out 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:52.880 of each other, and let's get into Survivor series. So 0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:55.360 we're gonna do this in order, ladies and gentlemen. First 0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:58.840 up was the women's War Games match, which was the 0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:01.880 good guys or the good girls in this case, Bianca Bellaire, 0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:06.240 the return of Becky Lynch from the shoulder injury. My 0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:12.640 favorite Oscar Alexa Bliss and Mia yim Versus Bailey who 0:10:12.679 --> 0:10:15.920 you know, I love, Dakota Kai, who you know I love. 0:10:15.960 --> 0:10:19.080 Also Eo Sky who you know I love Nicky Cross 0:10:19.160 --> 0:10:21.720 who since they got rid of the superhero gimmick, you know, 0:10:21.840 --> 0:10:25.760 I love, and Rhea Ripley, who Jeff loves even more 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:28.760 than me because she's like, she looks like she's six 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:30.360 ft tall. I don't know how tall she is, but 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:31.920 she looks six ft tall and she looks like she 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:34.559 can beat up everybody on the roster. War Games is 0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:38.520 an interesting match because there can't be a finish until 0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:41.520 everyone's in the ring, but they release people into the 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:44.880 ring one at a time, so it's hard to maintain 0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:49.240 tension in a match where there's people fighting and you 0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:51.480 know there can't be a winner. They're just beating the 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:54.200 crap out of each other. This is a difficult match 0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:58.880 to pull off. It started the show. You can't even 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:02.000 have a finish in the beginning of it. You can't 0:11:02.000 --> 0:11:04.760 have one until there's ten women in the ring. Basically, 0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:09.480 somehow they pulled this off. They told multiple stories. They 0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:13.160 did callbacks two stories that existed a couple of years ago, 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:16.679 which w w E never does. They ignore their past, 0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:19.880 They ignore their history. To never allow stories to be 0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:23.040 told in the ring or recall events that happened in 0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:25.320 the ring while you're in the ring has always been 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:27.640 a very strange thing to me. I don't when I 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:30.280 worked there, that was the rule. Since I left, that 0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:33.800 was the rule, and I guess once Vince left, Hunter 0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:36.720 was like, yeah, that rule is gone. I don't agree 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:39.360 with that rule. That rule suck, And now you can 0:11:39.400 --> 0:11:42.000 make callbacks to this. The one I want to focus on, 0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:46.839 which probably wasn't anyone's most interesting, was Nicky Cross and 0:11:46.920 --> 0:11:49.520 Alexa Bliss because they used to be a tag team 0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:52.440 when Nikki had the superhero gimmick, and they were trying 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:55.280 to get her some experience and get her a good rub, 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:57.600 so they put her in a partnership with Alexa Bliss. 0:11:57.880 --> 0:12:01.280 Bliss wasn't had already kind of had herchampionship run, and 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:03.400 so they demand that, you know, she helps get other 0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:07.480 people over at that point. So now Nikky grabs handcuffs 0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:08.959 in the middle of this match. It's no d Q. 0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:12.320 They were throwing Kendle sticks in their tables, ladders and chairs, 0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:16.439 oh my everything, and she cuffs Alexa Bliss. The other 0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:18.360 cuff isn't done yet. She's gonna put that one on 0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:20.400 the cage and just beat the crap out of Alexei. 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:24.920 And she says, you think I forgot, You think I forgot? 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:27.320 And it was that small, It was that small of 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:31.800 a moment, But it's a moment because that kind of 0:12:31.840 --> 0:12:34.959 that should let the fans who sort of know the business, 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:37.199 which I think too many of us know the business now, 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:39.800 and it's made wrestling far less magical than it than 0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:42.280 it used to be. But for those who did know, 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:47.080 I guarantee you we all appreciate it because to allow 0:12:47.200 --> 0:12:51.120 a wrestler to make a call back like that when 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:54.920 they're not allowed to normally. Little moments like this are 0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:59.000 important because it doesn't only give a wrinkle into the 0:12:59.080 --> 0:13:02.800 characters of these wrestlers, but it gives them reasons to fight, 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:06.400 and a reason to fight is what makes wrestling interesting. 0:13:06.760 --> 0:13:09.440 You don't have to have the best promo work, you 0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:13.400 don't have to have the greatest storyline, the greatest character. 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:17.000 You just have to have a reason why you're going 0:13:17.080 --> 0:13:20.440 to hurt this other person outside of I want to win, 0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:23.800 because that only works so many times there So when 0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:26.600 there's a personal issue, it adds that wrinkled that I 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:31.360 think everyone can appreciate. Eventually, the good guys win. Becky 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:35.080 Lynch climbs up to the top, jumps off, and uh 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:37.800 and gets the wind. However, there was a lot of 0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:40.040 good stuff in this man Io Sky went up to 0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:42.960 the top did a backflip, a blind backflip. She never 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:46.000 looked back to see if anyone was there to catch her. 0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:49.720 Just hey, here we go. Wow. So anyway, the good 0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:52.640 guys win. Everybody's feeling good as the match starts, and 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:56.360 now we move on to Finn Balor versus aj styles 0:13:56.400 --> 0:13:58.760 which is more sort of in the middle. For me, 0:13:58.960 --> 0:14:00.560 this felt like a match that could have just been 0:14:00.600 --> 0:14:02.959 on Monday and Ira, I don't know what w w 0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:06.440 e's do it. I don't know if they are pumping 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:11.440 in crowd noise on live shows. And and I heard 0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:14.559 they muted like Sasha Banks chance during the first match, 0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:17.200 which if they did, it's not a shame on you moment, 0:14:17.240 --> 0:14:19.760 but like who cares, Like why do you have to 0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:23.960 have that much control over what people here? Like, just 0:14:23.960 --> 0:14:27.960 just present it honestly and organically and let people be 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:31.040 excited about Sasha Banks. We all know you're gonna resign her, 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:33.680 You're not gonna let her walk, You're gonna pay her 0:14:33.680 --> 0:14:36.880 what she wants, So just let these moments happen. It 0:14:37.000 --> 0:14:40.160 happened on SmackDown as well, where I'm not seeing the 0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:44.200 crowd cheering like they're watching right, but they're not that hype, 0:14:44.280 --> 0:14:47.480 and I'm hearing like loud pops that just aren't there, 0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:50.240 so I think they're I think they're pumping in fake 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.640 crowd noise, which is just beneath you. Guys. You're the 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:57.800 top show. You're the top show, the highest rated wrestling 0:14:57.840 --> 0:15:02.400 show in the world of of sports entertainment or professional 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:04.680 wrestling or whatever you liked to to find it. But 0:15:04.760 --> 0:15:07.480 this match in the middle was kind of there. Weren't 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:09.240 all the spots that you like to see from either 0:15:09.240 --> 0:15:11.320 one of these guys. But it was a good match. 0:15:11.400 --> 0:15:14.200 I mean, it wasn't bad or boring or anything. I 0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:16.440 just felt like I've seen it and it could have 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:18.440 just been on a Monday Night Raw. It didn't have to, 0:15:18.840 --> 0:15:21.360 it didn't have to take up a spot, but yeah, 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:24.320 it was. It was fine. It just didn't didn't blow 0:15:24.360 --> 0:15:26.560 me away. Now we're gonna get into the worst of 0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:31.680 the week, and this one. I was texting with my 0:15:31.720 --> 0:15:36.960 producer Alexis. It was the champion, Rhonda Rousey versus Shotsy 0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:40.680 black Heart, and I'll spoil it now rounda Rousey one. 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:48.240 This was the single worst match I have seen and 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:51.080 I don't know how long. And it was not Shotsy 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:54.240 black Heart's fault. Shots He did her thing in this. 0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:56.360 And you can say what you want about her. I mean, 0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:58.320 I know she's had a couple of spots that that 0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:00.840 she's blown on Friday Night smack Down over the last 0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:04.640 couple of months, but overall her works pretty clean. She 0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:09.600 carried Ronda through this whole match. She did everything a 0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:13.280 wrestler can do to make the other wrestler look good, 0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:17.800 But it takes two to tango. And this is to 0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:20.400 pay per views in a row where Ronda. Ronda didn't 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:22.920 show up and she was worse in this match than 0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:26.160 she was against Live Morgan, and she was not good 0:16:26.160 --> 0:16:34.440 in that match. This was borderline unwatchable it. I don't 0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:36.720 know what a people's reactions were, but they could not 0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:42.160 have been positive. I've never seen someone look like ay, 0:16:42.280 --> 0:16:45.760 they didn't care and be like they don't. I don't 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:48.960 know if she's is she not practicing, Is she not 0:16:49.480 --> 0:16:52.440 required to go and work on her skills and develop 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:55.640 because she is, and I'm not talking about shots, Rhonda 0:16:55.840 --> 0:16:59.640 is regressing. She is not progressing. Her work is not 0:16:59.680 --> 0:17:03.400 getting better, it's getting worse. She blew a d d 0:17:03.560 --> 0:17:07.400 T that should have been the spot of the frigging 0:17:07.960 --> 0:17:12.440 night Shots. He goes up onto the top rope. The 0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:16.800 top rope Rhonda barely gave her the support spot like shots. 0:17:16.800 --> 0:17:19.199 He was almost just having to balance solo like a 0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:23.080 damn luchador. And then she's coming off the top rope 0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:26.120 to do a d d T on the apron where 0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:29.159 Rhonda's head would hit the apron and Shots lands on 0:17:29.160 --> 0:17:32.480 the outside, and Rhonda just held onto the top rope 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:35.640 and didn't let herself fall, which gave Shots even a 0:17:35.720 --> 0:17:39.480 further distance to fall from the top rope all the 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:41.879 way to the mats outside the ring. It could have 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:45.160 blasted out both her knees or an ankle or anything. 0:17:45.480 --> 0:17:49.840 It looked unsafe on Rhonda's part, and the no cell 0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:51.399 on it was I don't even know if you call 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:53.440 it a nose. It just looked like she didn't know 0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:56.480 what she was doing. And it wasn't just on defense 0:17:56.560 --> 0:17:59.200 on moves that she's gonna take. When Shots came off 0:17:59.200 --> 0:18:01.119 the top rope and Round is supposed to catch her 0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:04.360 and do that belly to belly supplex that looked like crap. 0:18:04.680 --> 0:18:07.440 The move in the ropes. I mean, everything she did 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:12.920 in this match looked terrible and I don't know how, 0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:15.639 like there are people there that will work with her. 0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:19.359 So she's either not taking the time to work with 0:18:19.400 --> 0:18:22.840 people because she her ego just is saying I don't 0:18:22.880 --> 0:18:26.040 need to do that, I'm super famous and whatever, or 0:18:27.080 --> 0:18:31.200 she can't do it. And if it's the latter, which 0:18:31.240 --> 0:18:33.680 means she can't do it, then why is she there? 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:37.119 And I don't think it's that. She's obviously athletic. She 0:18:37.240 --> 0:18:41.679 was a damn UFC women's champion. She's a judoka freaking master. 0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:48.280 Her trainer was Gene LaBelle rest in Peace. She's an athlete, 0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:51.840 so it look, I don't know, but it has to 0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:54.920 be that she's just not putting in the work. It 0:18:55.320 --> 0:19:00.400 has to be that this was a horrible match. It 0:19:00.480 --> 0:19:05.320 was legit unwatchable and it had moments that should have 0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:09.040 stolen the damn show. Listen. She's never gonna be good 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:11.399 on promos, all right, that's just not within her. She 0:19:11.480 --> 0:19:14.680 doesn't know how to act at all. There's a reason 0:19:14.760 --> 0:19:18.200 that they've limited her to thirty to forty five seconds 0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:21.440 in backstage segments where her promos get cut off because 0:19:21.440 --> 0:19:23.479 she doesn't want to talk to the crowd, or they 0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:26.040 let Shana Basler do all the talking and and Rohnda 0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:29.680 does something else because she can't talk. If you can't 0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:33.960 talk or work, what are you doing? You're just taking 0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:37.840 the check. If that's the case, that's where a shame 0:19:37.880 --> 0:19:41.080 on you should be applied because that's just whack and lame. 0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:44.480 Look at all the other outside people lately that have 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:47.040 been busting their ask to look great. You can work 0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:49.080 on days off. She doesn't have to work the same 0:19:49.160 --> 0:19:51.359 kind of schedule that these other wrestlers have to do. 0:19:51.480 --> 0:19:54.520 Male or female. There are old school legends that will 0:19:54.560 --> 0:19:57.160 come in and help you out and help you develop techniques, 0:19:57.200 --> 0:20:00.119 help you design matches, help you understand ring psychology. G 0:20:00.600 --> 0:20:03.520 I hated this match. It is what it is. But 0:20:03.560 --> 0:20:06.359 now we're gonna get onto a good match, which was 0:20:06.400 --> 0:20:23.280 the US title. It was Seth Rollins the US champion, 0:20:23.960 --> 0:20:27.600 Bobby Lashly, the former champion, and Austin Theory, the man 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:30.040 with the failed cash in on the U S type. 0:20:30.680 --> 0:20:32.760 And let me say a couple of things. First. First 0:20:32.760 --> 0:20:36.520 of all, God bless Seth Rollins. He made this match. 0:20:36.720 --> 0:20:38.760 He had spots in this that we'll talk about that 0:20:38.800 --> 0:20:42.800 we're unreal. I hate his hair so much, but I'm 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:45.480 supposed to because otherwise I'd be cheering for him, and 0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:47.879 I don't think he wants me to cheer for him. 0:20:47.920 --> 0:20:50.560 I think he did it on purpose, just because he 0:20:50.600 --> 0:20:53.040 knows I would hate his hair. I think he got extensions, 0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:55.400 which makes me even angrier because I don't think any 0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:58.800 man's hair can grow that fast. But good God, do 0:20:58.920 --> 0:21:01.600 I hate it and bless you for being one of 0:21:01.640 --> 0:21:04.640 the greatest wrestlers in the world, dude. And another thing, 0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:07.000 I was critical of Boston Theory a couple of weeks 0:21:07.040 --> 0:21:09.280 ago because I saw him reading off two cards to 0:21:09.680 --> 0:21:12.159 Monday Night Rosigo. It was kind of half read and 0:21:12.200 --> 0:21:15.000 half memorized. The memorized part was with Dolf. The other 0:21:15.040 --> 0:21:16.920 part was whereas he was looking off camera, he's a 0:21:17.280 --> 0:21:20.760 percent reading off few cards. He had a a promo 0:21:20.880 --> 0:21:26.520 on Monday Night Raw that was completely memorized. He did 0:21:26.520 --> 0:21:29.800 not look at a qute card once. And this boy 0:21:30.240 --> 0:21:33.479 killed it, I mean killed it. He talked about this 0:21:33.600 --> 0:21:37.160 kid you guys talk about this ungrateful kid that takes 0:21:37.520 --> 0:21:40.920
