That's a horrible way to start the show, 11 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: and I apologize, but SummerSlam was not horrible and that's 12 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: what we're here to discuss today. You're stuck with Uncle Freddie. 13 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: Hope you enjoy today's episode and if you don't, you know, 14 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 1: to hit Jeff up on social media let him know 15 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: that the show sucked because he wasn't here. But we're 16 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,839 Speaker 1: gonna start with a man that a lot of people 17 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: don't like, man named Logan paul In. Regardless or should 18 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: I say irrespective of the way you feel about him. 19 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: His work in WWE has been better than average, I 20 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,639 Speaker 1: think is the conservative way to say it, and pretty 21 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: damn good, I think is the more liberal way to 22 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: say it. Right, if we're throwing compliments around, I don't 23 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: think he's as good as a heel when he's trying 24 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: to be a heel as he is when he's just 25 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: trying to be himself and be a babyface and get over. 26 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: He leaned into it too much. It feels a little 27 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: bit forced. So that's why I'm saying like his stuff 28 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: hasn't been perfect. I think he should just be himself. 29 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: And if he wants to react to like, ah, man, 30 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: you guys don't like me, that sucks, then he can 31 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: lean that direction. But what he's doing is going the 32 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: opos away, which is ha, ha, you don't like me. 33 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: And that's a little a little not pushy, but just 34 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 1: a little forced pushy forced same thing. So anyway, he's 35 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: wrestling everyone's favorite pretty boy, Ricochet, pretty ricky himself. This dude. 36 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: For those who aren't familiar with his work, he can do. 37 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: He can fly. Basically, the guy does twenty seven flips 38 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: off the top rope with eighteen hundred twists and then 39 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: land something crazy, and he does something insane every single week. 40 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: May not be new every week, but he does bring 41 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 1: in new things as well, or probably old things for 42 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: him that he's just now getting allowed to use, but 43 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: new to our rides. And he's had this interesting thing. 44 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: I guess feud is it been going on long enough 45 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 1: to be a feud. But it all started at the 46 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: Royal Rumble. I feel like when they both jumped off 47 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 1: opposite ring sides and smacked each other in the chest. 48 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: It all sort of started there. And then at the 49 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,399 Speaker 1: last show, which was Money in the Bank, they had 50 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: that spot that was almost a blown spot, but Ricochet 51 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: saved it. I think it was a sliced bread off 52 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 1: the off the ring apron onto a table or off 53 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: the ropes the middle rope onto a table. I think 54 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: maybe not sliced bread, but it was something. It was 55 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: a flip. If Ricochet is doing it, it's a flip. 56 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: But I'll say this Logan Paul's work out of all 57 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: the celebrities, has been the best work so far. To 58 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: my eyes, it's been better than bad Bunny. It's been 59 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: better than who else has been in there trying to 60 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: work better than me. I just took. I just took 61 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: what I didn't get to give any but better than me, 62 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: better than better. I don't want to say maybe he's 63 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: the best. I don't know. I don't care. I don't 64 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: think celebrity should be interesting period, but maybe he's the 65 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 1: best one out of out of everyone that's that's gone 66 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: in there and tried to do this. The crowd did 67 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: not like Logan and they they bowed the hell out 68 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: of him. Man then let him know. And I had 69 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: friends who were actually there and they said it was 70 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: way like hotter there than what we saw on TV. 71 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: That they were like really not feeling him, and it 72 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: ended up being the perfect vibe because he ends on 73 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: some shady stuff. I will say this. Corey Graves was 74 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: killing me on commentary. He was so frigging funny talking 75 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: about Ricky's fiance wife dressing like Logan Paul, who's she 76 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: really back in cal Oh my gosh, look at that. 77 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: I was. I was going hard for that stuff. I 78 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: like Corey Graves a lot, and when he does like 79 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 1: outside the box stuff like that, it works nine times 80 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: out of ten. He swings hard, whether it's a home 81 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: run or a strikeout, he swings hard and I always 82 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 1: respect that and he gets the hit more than he doesn't. 83 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: But Logan Paul, we got some shadiness the big assist 84 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: because he had to get to his brother's fight, so 85 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: we had to get out of there early. And he 86 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: grabbed some brass knuckles and he clocked her a cachet 87 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: right in the head with him, got the pin, hit 88 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,479 Speaker 1: him down his pants, jumped up on the turnbuckle, and 89 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: then you saw him like shimmy and looked down and 90 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: he thought that they fell down all the way down 91 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: his pants and out his boot. And then he's like, no, no, 92 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: it's still okay. It's right by my nuts. We're good okay. 93 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: But it was a good match, man, and I got 94 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: to give it up to him. I'm not I'm not 95 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: the biggest fan of all his life choices, but they're 96 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: his choices, they're not they're not mine, and I'm just 97 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: a man. It's not my place to criticize as long 98 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: as he's not hurting people. And I feel like the 99 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: handful of times he has done something hurtful, if it 100 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: was a topic that we discussed, I was always very 101 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: honest with how I felt. But his work in WWE, 102 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: in the ring has been really really good, and his 103 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: promo work has been okay, not good, not bad, just 104 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: in the middle. So that was the first match, and 105 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: it was a good way to start the show because 106 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: it got the crowd pretty hot. They were pissed off, 107 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: and then they got to see Cody versus Brock, which 108 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 1: was felt like the match that we were supposed to get. 109 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: I feel like that episode where I talked to you 110 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: about my buddy's who's in this my business, not the 111 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: wrestling business, but my business told me it was going 112 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: to be Cody's hard time story. I feel like that's 113 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: been partially confirmed. Cody even said it in a promo, 114 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: having his own hard times. So our show got that storyline. 115 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: First suckers, nobody cares ready, Okay, whatever, sorry, but we 116 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: got the match that we wanted. I believe things will 117 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: be over between the two men, or at least somewhat over. 118 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: And yeah, it was. It was a good It was 119 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: a good match. I know Brock kind of endorses Cody 120 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 1: there at the end, and people have been critical of it, 121 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: but Brock can kind of do whatever he wants. He's 122 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 1: putting guys over now, he's getting ready to retire, and 123 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: let him do what he wants, don't don't trip on 124 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: that kind of crap. And it's a good step for 125 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: Cody while they were finishing this bloodline storyline to keep 126 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: him away from Roman. So is anything that's keeping him 127 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: away from that and getting people excited for that because 128 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: you want to do it next WrestleMania, right, That's what 129 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: everybody's starting to prognosticate now. So yeah, it's been it's 130 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: been a good distraction for him, a very good distraction. 131 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: And then we get to the Battle Royal and I 132 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: have a different take on this than probably everyone else, 133 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: I think so anyway, but everybody wanted La Night to 134 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: win the slim Gym Battle Royal just kind of like 135 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:44,119 Speaker 1: a Royal rumble but not nearly as significant. And shout 136 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: out to slim Gym's Macaulay Culkin. Still eat you to 137 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: these to this day, but I do not, and you 138 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: don't pay me to say nice things about you. And 139 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: I think it's kind of corny that it's promoting a 140 00:07:55,800 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: Battle Royal. La Knight wins the Battle Royal and he 141 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 1: goes bananas is a big it's a big win for him, 142 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: at least that's what he's selling. But to me, he's 143 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: bigger than this, he's better than this. Yeah, yeah, she 144 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: should have won it, and it shouldn't have been a surprise, 145 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: but he should have been in a better storyline period. 146 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. I just it was a cool match, 147 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: like they told they were able to tell like three 148 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: or four storylines. So don't get me wrong, I liked 149 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: all the stuff in there. I just I didn't think 150 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: l A. Knight needed this win. It's a slim GM 151 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: battle royal man say it without laughing the first time. 152 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: It's tough. So yeah, this wasn't as a big as 153 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 1: big a deal to me as as I had hoped, 154 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: or as maybe maybe you hoped. But yeah, shout out 155 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: to him, he won. I just I would rather see 156 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: him beating up Austin Theory for the United States Championship. 157 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: Then we get to the MMA rules match with SHANEA. 158 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 1: Basler and round arouse. I try to just talk about 159 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: the stuff I like and enjoy on this show. I 160 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 1: don't like criticizing other artists when they're making live art. 161 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: That's hardcore. It's like saying that Jackson Pollock painting looks chaotic, 162 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: like yeah, man, it's supposed to. That's the that's the 163 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: effing point. So it's it's tricky. And I had dudes over. 164 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: My son was having a sleepover. I was going to 165 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: go to this party. I was going to go to 166 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: a cool, like Hollywood viewing party of Summer Slam, but 167 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: my son had this sleepover set up because I thought 168 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: Summer Slam was on a Sunday, and so I had 169 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 1: the boys over, but I made them watch while I 170 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: was making dinner for these homies. We made pizza from scratch. 171 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 1: We made the dough from scratch, this cool recipe I 172 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: got when my family was in Italy and it was ball. 173 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: But they're all having to sit and watch and they're 174 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: liking the matches that we've seen so far. And this 175 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 1: came on and both boys are watching. Say who's this? 176 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: Who's the Oh? Yeah, Ronda Rouse avert or her? Who's that? 177 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: Oh that's Shane and Basler that's you know, that's her friend. 178 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: Why aren't they friends anymore? Shut up? Just watch the promo. 179 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: They'll tell you why they hate each other. Oh okay, sorry, 180 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: so they're watching, Well, I'm needing the or not needing 181 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 1: the dough had already been needed since the way they 182 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: were been netted netified, grabbing it out the fridge, rolling 183 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: everything out, getting it ready, and within two minutes both 184 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: boys said, Dad, we're going upstairs, call us with the 185 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,839 Speaker 1: next calls for the next match. These are ten year 186 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 1: old boys. They both like wrestling well. Rocky likes wrestling 187 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: a lot, and his buddy knew like who seth Rollins 188 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 1: was and knew who all these guys were. They walked 189 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: out of this match, and you know, all I'm going 190 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: to say is I don't blame them. I don't know 191 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 1: how this match was on the pay per view card 192 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: instead of Becky and Trish, or instead of Rhea versus someone. 193 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: This is not a storyline that I don't feel many 194 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: I don't think many fans had an interest in. But 195 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: I guess they felt they owed rond to one more, 196 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: one more pay per view, or maybe they legally did. 197 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 1: But this was never a story that I felt was 198 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: gonna get over. And that's nothing to take away from SHANEA. Basler. 199 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 1: I thought she did her best selling at that backstage 200 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: promo interview type thing. She did a really good job 201 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: with it. But the fans are done with Ronda Rousey. 202 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: They're done with her. They know she doesn't care, or 203 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: at least she didn't. So this match just it was 204 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 1: what it was, and and then it was over. Gunther 205 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 1: versus Drew. They beat the living hell out of each 206 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: other for about seventeen minutes and it was brutal. But 207 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: I love Gunther, so I'm a Drew McIntyre fan. I 208 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: knew Drew when I worked there back in the day, 209 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 1: and the only notes they would give him is losuer accent. 210 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 1: I kept tell that he might even remember this. I 211 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: kept telling him f that you speak in your natural voice, 212 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: that's going to be your most authentic voice. And eventually 213 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 1: they'll wake up and figure it out. And they did, 214 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: and so did everybody else. And he's awesome. But Gunther 215 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: or Gunther has made the Intercontinental Championship mean something, and 216 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: I don't remember the last time it meant something. I 217 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: genuinely am interested in who pursues it. I'm genuine And 218 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: a lot of this is due to their creative too. 219 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: It's not just all it's all on Gunther to get 220 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: the promos over, to get the segments over, and to 221 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: get the matches over. But creative has to have something 222 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: for him, and they have been creative in the way 223 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: that they've they've had him get his championship and maintain 224 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: his championship run, so they deserve some credit too, But 225 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: it really does feel like it means something again, and 226 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: for that he deserves love. I can't break down their 227 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: match outside if they beat the living hell out of 228 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 1: each other, and if you like seeing as big he 229 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: would say, meaty men slapping meat, then that's your mattch 230 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:12,439 Speaker 1: traight there. I really liked it, Seth versus Finn. This 231 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: was the two ten year olds, my son and his 232 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: buddy's favorite match of the night. They were yelling, screaming, cheering. 233 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: It's a good gauge for me as to what's working. 234 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: Seth came out dressed up in something that if Jeff 235 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: was here, we would have spent the first ten minutes 236 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: talking about and then there would have been no show left. 237 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 1: But it didn't matter because he's Seth freaking Rollins, and 238 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter how bad he dresses his work so clean. 239 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 1: I will never be mean, mister Rollins. That was an 240 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: awesome match two ten year olds. You had big time fans. Honestly, 241 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have even been mad if Finn won it. 242 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 1: Outside of its too short a rain and you have 243 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: to give Seth time to make that belt mean what 244 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: it can mean if you give him a long competitive rain, 245 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: and I think it will mean something if it doesn't already. 246 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 1: But they love this match. I really loved the match too. 247 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 1: It is a ton of fun. The watch you McCall it. 248 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 1: The Damien Priest element was really good. It's really good. 249 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: He's like, yo, man, I tried to help you want Oh, 250 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: now you want it, fine, let me help you out. 251 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: And then he just screws himself and gets curb stomped 252 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: on top of the money in the bank briefcase. So 253 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 1: more fire within the house of the Judgment Day. They've 254 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: been having tention for a few months now, yeah, two 255 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: three months now, like here and there, and then they 256 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: keep patching it up. But it's coming to a head. 257 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: We may see someone from the Judgment Day get expunged, 258 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: expelled from the group. But still a really good match 259 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: and a ton of fun. And then we got Osaka 260 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: versus Bianca Bellair versus Charlotte Flair, and I worry about 261 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 1: triple threat matches. I don't like trios tag matches for 262 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: the most part. I would have rather seen this be 263 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: a clean one on one. But the story they put 264 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: in there, which was Bianca wants her rematch and Charlotte 265 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: doesn't wait in line, she is. The line was a 266 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: believable storyline because that's honestly how it happened. And they 267 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: just forced Charlotte into the story. But she would force herself, 268 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: that's the character, so it worked. I was really nervous 269 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: I wouldn't like the match. I was nervous that the 270 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: boys wouldn't like the match, and everybody's eyes were on 271 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: the screen. The ladies did a great job. The Bianca 272 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: bel air injury fooled both boys. They both thought it 273 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: was real. For a second. I thought it was real too, 274 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: until she looked back to the ring. I was like, ah, nah, 275 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: she's good. And then she did the second look. I 276 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: was like, she's about to bolt, and then she bolted 277 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 1: to the ring. But yeah, it was a really good match. 278 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: And the finish, the creative finish, is what made it 279 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: special in my mind. Osca does the moda mist and 280 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: she sprays the mist right in Charlotte's eyes while Charlotte's 281 00:15:56,200 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: in her like arched bridge backbridge figure or super figure 282 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: eight leg lock, Beyonca's knees already jacked up. Beyonce ends 283 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: up rolling Osaka after Osca misses kicking her head off 284 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: and while her legs are still tied up, which would 285 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: basically be like getting leverage off the ropes, she gets 286 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: the easy roll up pin on Osaka one two three, 287 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: which if her legs weren't like that, then maybe that 288 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: doesn't go off. So Charlotte accidentally helps her get the 289 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 1: win after Osaka accidentally helped her get the win. So 290 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: it was a really cool story for the finish of 291 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: a pretty good match, And I thought the I have 292 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: them in the biggest bell aer fan lately because her 293 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: promo work kind of plateaued, But I felt like with 294 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: the story they were telling the right person one and 295 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: Charlotte can either stay in this story or go on 296 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: another awesome vacation with her man somewhere exotic. She like, 297 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: comes in, gets the championship real quick, does a job, 298 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: and then takes a month off, goes to Italy, comes back, 299 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: does it again, takes a month off, goes to Asia. Whatever, 300 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: No big deal, I'm sure lock Clair. We'll finish today's 301 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: episode of Roman versus Jay in the Tribal Combat match, 302 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: and let me tell you this and I don't say 303 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: this lightly. Tribal combat was a loe, a total farce, 304 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: a complete fallacy, and I'm pissed off about it. What 305 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: the hell is a tribal combat? I thought these dudes 306 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: were going to come out like Wakanda style with like 307 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 1: a kendo stick, and I don't know if Samoans have shields, 308 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: but if they do, a Samoans shield and they whip 309 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 1: each other's ass until the kendo sticks broke, and then 310 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: bash each other with a shield until that breaks, and 311 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: then when there's nothing left, they're just fighting. No one's 312 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: allowed to interfere. Two people interfered. I didn't feel a 313 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: lot of Samoan culture within within the match, which was 314 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: just kind of weird to me. And I'm not like 315 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: trying to say it in a woke way. I'm just 316 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: basically it was a DQ. It was just a DQ match. 317 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: At least give me a Viking ship around it and 318 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 1: make it a sweet Viking match. Still don't know the 319 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: Viking matches, by the way, we're four weeks away from it. 320 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: But yeah, man, they lied. Solo interfered, so I guess 321 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 1: that makes him out of the family because the elders 322 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: aren't going to tolerate that the elders were the ones 323 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 1: that have so much power. They were the ones that 324 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: made this match, because otherwise Roman wouldn't have given Jay 325 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: a title shot, he wouldn't have given him in anything. 326 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 1: So I assume that he's going to be out of 327 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,400 Speaker 1: the family, and I assume Jimmy's going to be out 328 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: of the family. Otherwise, what power do the elders really have? 329 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: You can't paint yourself into a corner story wise through 330 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: unfulfilled promises. Man, you can't say these people are all powerful. 331 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 1: And then it's like the atheist argument against God, Right, 332 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: if God's all powerful, then why does X happen, I happen, 333 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: Z heapen? Why do kids get cancer? Like all those things? Like, 334 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: if the elders have no power, how are they all powerful? 335 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:12,119 Speaker 1: If they're all powerful, then Roman reigns has to follow 336 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: those rules because he had to take that match. So 337 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: now he doesn't have to follow the rules within the match. 338 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: How is he not kicked out of the family. So 339 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: I just don't understand what story they were trying to tell. 340 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: The match itself was really good, man. The dudes went 341 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: back and forth, super creative match. Finally Jay gets up 342 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 1: to the top hits him with the big time splash. 343 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: We know the match is over. One duo no interference 344 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: from a hooded masked individual pulls him off, and who's 345 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 1: the hooded individual? He takes the hood off, still has 346 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: the mask on, and then he pulls the mask down 347 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: and gives this beautiful side eye and the twin brother 348 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: has finally betrayed his younger brother by whatever eight seconds 349 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: jay ou so Jimmy has betrayed j and without it 350 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: being a tribal combat match, this is really awesome story. 351 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: I'm with it one hundred percent, like betrayal. You know, 352 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: after what was a certain victory, the only guy who 353 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 1: has roman reigns his number legit is Jay Uso unless 354 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 1: you count the one when that Xavier Woods had back 355 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: in the day, which still counts. I think it's a 356 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: DQ but it still counts. But yeah, Jay has his number. 357 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: And so the match itself was beautiful, but they didn't 358 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 1: follow any of their rules. It was all just sort 359 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 1: of like, hey, here's we're just getting you to this 360 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: DQ match and we're going to call it tribal combat. 361 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 1: There was nothing tribal about it, and the combat was there, 362 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 1: but it wasn't tribally. You see what I'm saying. That's 363 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,239 Speaker 1: a word it is today. Don't forget to check us 364 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: out on unsanctioned Thursdays.
