Starting point is 00:00:06 Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, welcome to another episode of the wrestling returns. WWE Day 1 started the new year with the new pay-per-view. Before we get into it, I'm your host, Brian. With me as always, my brother, Nez, what's up, man? Oh, man. I'm good, but everyone, people I'm knowing are all starting to get sick. Brother Phil just got over it, which That was shocking when he revealed it to us.
Starting point is 00:00:44 But other brother of ours, a little, he got over it. Oh, wow. He's doing good. I shout out to you, a little. He's moving to Florida to work for the Magic Kingdom. I don't know what he's doing, but
Starting point is 00:01:03 he's going to move down. there so uh hook us up so we can get in a disney world um but uh it was cool to start off the year with a pay-per-view on a new one so i assume uh are we getting these every day or not every day every year from now on day one do you think uh i don't know i don't know i think they were just trying something new, trying to give us something different, but I'm not sure if we got something different, but we'll get into it. Overall, man, what did you think of WWE's day one? Most of the matches I was, I was fine with, but the championship matches, I thought was
Starting point is 00:02:01 complete bullshit especially what I'm reading was supposed to be the original outcome so yeah it just kind of it kind of ruined
Starting point is 00:02:14 the pay per view for me was that for the main event yeah all right well we'll get to that we get to it so but I didn't watch the kickoff show did you I've just seen that one
Starting point is 00:02:29 clip of a ricochet breaking that guy knows which guy uh rich harm yeah all right I'll have to look that up but uh I didn't see that one but they
Starting point is 00:02:44 CBS sports.com graded that one a B minus so uh I like Czaro and ricochet Chameas he is what he is so I'll have to check it out though
Starting point is 00:02:59 but um to off the actual show we had the smackdown tag team championship with um the usos uh taking on uh the new day well not all three uh cophy kingston and xavier or king Xavier so coffee cofi but um i thought this was a good match to start off uh to start off the night or basically the second match but um all four of these guys they go hard the usos go hard no matter what I have seen a couple matches where it seemed like they weren't really
Starting point is 00:03:35 into it but Coffey and Xavier they always put on a good show I mean I think I mean even when the when Coffey was a single I mean he always did but then since the new day started the past few years it's good to see them
Starting point is 00:03:50 I'm glad that they're still a new day I know Big E is doing his thing but I still like when they all come together so but I thought this match was really good. I mean, like I said, all four of them always go hard. And that's exactly what they did in this match. I mean, they, the Uso's, all, all, all, uh, high flyers. I think my favorite, uh, part of the match is when, uh, they roughed up Kofi and they had him laying there
Starting point is 00:04:21 in the middle of the ring and then both of the brusos jumped off the top, uh, and did, uh, double splash on them. I know when the guys land, they'd see. seems like they land on their knees and then either their forearms or their hands, that's got to take a toll after a while, I think. Because they don't want to completely land with all their weight on them. But, man, I'm sure these guys got bad knees. I mean, we look at all our heroes now. All the guys that I grew up watching as a little kid and they're all just limping around
Starting point is 00:04:58 and some of them can't even walk because they're just, They just beat to hell. So I'm hopefully These guys At least Do something to To help strengthen up their knees and everything Pretty much their whole joints
Starting point is 00:05:14 Everybody, all the guys and gals, Everybody that's in the ring performing. But again, I thought this match was awesome But I see I'm looking at it right now Other than Xavier, Kofi and the Usos they were saying that the Uso's had those red air forces.
Starting point is 00:05:36 I don't know if you guys have ever been kicked with a pair of Nikes. I have. Of course I know they pull back when they're doing the super kicks, but I don't know, man. I don't know if I'd want to get hit with that hard rubber sole. Because you can see on other performers when they have their actual, their ring boots. You see that their bottoms are flat.
Starting point is 00:06:01 and they're kind of almost padded, but I'm sure the force of it still hurts, but yeah, I wouldn't want to get kicked with some Nikes. How you feel about the 3D finish? It was cool. I mean, it would have been better if they did it onto a table, but, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Yeah, it was what it was. I mean, they were paying, they paid homage to their dad, so that was always cool. And they did the little, uh, the butt splash or the butt. or whatever the hell they called it. And I don't know if it was Jimmy or Jay.
Starting point is 00:06:37 I was able to tell who was who in this because, ah, man, not, now I forget. And I want to say Jay had the longer hair and Jimmy had the shorter, the shorter hair. Or it could be vice versa. Either way. But I thought that was a good, it was a good ending. I mean, I basically did the 3D.
Starting point is 00:07:03 on Kofi in one, two, three. But, I mean, King Xavier, I mean, when he's in there, he goes he goes hella hard. And like I said, and he is a high flyer. And I loved all their moves that they were doing.
Starting point is 00:07:20 There was a little mistakes, but they cover up once they get gone. Because this match went pretty fast. But I'm watching it right now, and Xavier's in the ring. and man he's he's a little guy he's not that tall
Starting point is 00:07:37 I met him once but man I mean he's he's all over the place as well as the Uso so but when when he was in the ring when I'm watching right now I thought
Starting point is 00:07:47 King Xavier was going to give Jay 619 but he basically just gave him a running two foot kick to the back to the back it looked like the back of his neck but it was like right on his back
Starting point is 00:08:02 this was cool they did rough up Coffey and they went for the pin and then King Xavier came out of nowhere and just jumped on top of them but this match was awesome
Starting point is 00:08:17 I love that I was other than I had a big smile when I see these guys in the ring especially when they're going up towards against one another but I thought this match was pretty awesome the CBS Sports graded it in A would you agree with that
Starting point is 00:08:32 Yeah, I'll give it an A. They, the new day and the Uso's always have fantastic matches together. And I like the added finisher with the 3D. And, yes, I have been kicked with some Air Forces. And it does not feel good. Well, I've kicked a few people with my Js, the original Jays, everyone. But those don't feel good either. No.
Starting point is 00:09:02 My friend had some and he wears the same size as a shoe that I wear. I said, I haven't bought Nike's in forever. I said, let me try these on. Maybe I'm just an old old man, but, oh, man, they didn't, they did not feel good. It's just flat-footed. Yeah, they're, they're, I have a few pairs. They're strictly for, per show, not, not for sports or anything. I'm sure these guys are the ball players take out the insoles and put it in their own because I don't know, I don't think I can go walking around all day with those on.
Starting point is 00:09:40 My feet would be killing me. But again, yeah, this one was a really good match. I enjoyed what was happening. And the Uso's ended up pulling it out. They did the 3D to Kofi. They were giving shots out other than to their dad. give shout out to their cousin Roman who tested positive for COVID. So that kind of basically changed the main event to what was going to go on.
Starting point is 00:10:08 But we'll get to that when we get to it. But on to the next match, which was, I was hoping for, is it happy Corbyn now? I was hoping for him to get involved. Before we dive into the match, who are the Migos? I'm not up to on today's new music. They are probably the biggest, most successful rap group right now. And they're out of Atlanta, so it makes sense for them to be there. I thought they were going to get involved when they were just,
Starting point is 00:10:54 I read something they wanted to, but I think somebody kind of put a stop to it because they said it was like being there was like a dream come true for them because they grew a big wrestling fan. So you can tell some of them were like super into it. And I think they wanted to get involved more. Yeah, but they we'll get to them again. We'll get to the next match. but yeah this match was Drew McIntyre taking on Mad Cat Moss
Starting point is 00:11:30 Drew McIntyre he's awesome good to see him back and he's been back for a few years but he was gone for a little while but Madcap Moss did he need happy Corbin
Starting point is 00:11:42 with him I mean I thought he did good when he was fine in in NXT and everything he was in NXT right yeah yeah he was he was fine in that
Starting point is 00:11:54 I've seen some of his indie stuff, but I don't know what they're doing with him. I mean, I think he could have been fine on his own, but I guess you got to keep happy Corbyn or what was he? Broke Corbyn or Sad Corbyn or before this. That's what I liked him. Yeah. Bummy Corby, or whatever, and the dirty stained-up shirts.
Starting point is 00:12:30 I'll give it to him. I don't know if he's the one that picks these gimmicks, but I assume he's happy because he still has a job. Yeah. If you guys do keep up with the wrestling news, they just letting fools go left and right at the WWE. My girl, Tony Storm, got let go. Niah Jacks got let go as well and
Starting point is 00:12:54 Samo Joe got let go again Again Oh man William Regal That was a shocker Where did that come from I figured he was doing good with NXT Was it
Starting point is 00:13:07 Did he just not want to do it anymore Or did he get B for Triple X Or Triple H No telling No telling Uh Kind of a little bit of news here It just kind of shows you
Starting point is 00:13:19 just can't know what to expect from WWE. They're allowing Mickey James, current impact wrestling knockout champion to be in the Royal Rumble. Yeah. Cool. All right. But.
Starting point is 00:13:38 I hope they let her bring her belt, too. That'd be awesome. I mean, are they just, they can't be hurting for talent. You're letting all these fools go. So, I mean, I don't know. I think Vince has just sell the company. Give it to somebody that wants to own a wrestling business and it's not going to do his performers dirty
Starting point is 00:14:08 because we know who's safe and who isn't. So I think I don't know about Corvin, but could he be on the, on the chopping block and he's just all right I'll do whatever you guys tell me to do and he just does it I mean he's safe yeah I think yeah that and he he puts
Starting point is 00:14:33 in a hundred percent to whatever they have him doing I mean he doesn't look like he doesn't like it I mean he gets into the role but yeah I want the hobo Corbin to come back I'm not liking
Starting point is 00:14:50 this happy Corbyn but what did you think of this match overall? I mean, it was what it was. I mean, we knew who was going to win. Drew McIntyre. I feel so just bad for him. I don't see him in a title picture anytime soon.
Starting point is 00:15:10 So he's going to be kind of set at these mid-card matches, mid-paper-view matches. But, you know, he gets in there and he does what he does. Mad Cap Moss, I mean, I, he was. fine in NXT, but I'm just not really feeling this happy Corbyn team up and they do their little corny stand-up routine with their jokes that are not, I mean, I understand they're not supposed to be funny, but I'm madcap, you can be, you can be better than that. Yeah, I mean, none of these, I mean, some people do come up with their gimmicks and what they're going to do in the ring, but you can tell who's just
Starting point is 00:15:56 yes, yes, ma'am, yes, sir, and just do it. But yeah, this match, of course we knew McIntyre was going to win. He ended up pinfall when he took down
Starting point is 00:16:11 that Madcap Moss. But as far as Drew getting another title shot or run, I was happy that they gave it to him when he came back I mean, because he really turned himself around as far as facial features. We're growing the beard.
Starting point is 00:16:31 He looks better. And he's in fucking better shape than he was when he was first in the WWE. And I loved what they did do him. And they did give him a good title run. He did win. And it was cool when he was a champ. But I think now after him dropping the belt a few times ago, who did who did he lose it to he didn't lose it to big he big he wanted from someone else right
Starting point is 00:17:01 or did he he he lost it to bobby that's right the almighty and we'll get to him in a minute but but again I mean the the way um these two went at a madcap and and um uh drew mcinty they both went pretty hard I mean, but these guys, these are two big, tall gentlemen, and I always say this, these big guys only have so many moves other than just throwing each other around. But Matt Catmaw's his ring gear, man, I don't know, man. I mean, get out of whatever this gimmick you're trying to do with him.
Starting point is 00:17:41 The answer too tight. That and the suspenders and the Hawaiian shirts and, I don't know. But I do like Happy Corbyn's hat. I like that, uh, that Kung Lao looking. heck CBS Sports gave this match of B minus and I can agree with that
Starting point is 00:18:02 it seemed like it was just a filler a filler because I don't really know where this storyline is going but at some point we know Mad Cat Moss and Happy Corbyn are going come into some disagreement and they're going to end up battling
Starting point is 00:18:20 so I'd like to see that I see Mad Cat Moss win in that fight, but I don't know, we'll see. But on to the next one, we are going to the raw tag team championship match, R.K. Bro, Matt Riddle, and Randy Orton, taken on the street profits. And this is when the Migos come out. I think when the RK. I was kind of like really, I liked Matt Riddle before they changed them to Riddle. But do you think Randy's just going along with it as well, or do you think he likes this tag team they got him?
Starting point is 00:19:14 I'm just waiting for him to turn on Riddle. It's going to happen. anytime soon i see i see i see riddle doing something to to mess up brought randy and then of course he's gonna come out to r k o on him and then that's when it'll it'll start but what'd you think of this match i thought it was a pretty decent match um i kind of wished uh street profits pulled it out. I really liked them, especially what is his name, Montez-Four? Because that guy, that guy flies through the air.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Oh, that. He puts everything into it. When he dove over the ring post? Yeah. That's high. My favorite, I mean, I love both of them, but what's the name? DeAngelo Dawkins, is that his name? I like him. And I do like the whole solo cup thing that's still going on.
Starting point is 00:20:18 with them but I'm surprised they're letting that go yeah I mean I'm sure that's kind of expensive to be doing well they did the cups for a while but now you can see it's in their graphics before they come out but I don't know because my friend went to some show and they were handing out the the solo cups before they came out and everybody had them but this match was awesome I thought it was pretty good man these these four went hella hard and I'll give it to riddle I mean he's funny and he's awesome in the ring but these guys that wrestle with no shoes
Starting point is 00:20:57 I mean you gotta give it to him I mean I know what's his name did it for a while until he hurt himself um the hell's his name married Alana uh russo yeah yeah him he did the no shoes for a while
Starting point is 00:21:17 but then uh something happened I think he heard of ankle or something. It was a while ago. But Matt Riddle, man, he's in and out of there. And flying around just landing on the cement barefooted. I'm sure that hurts. But I'm sure he's in a pretty good shape.
Starting point is 00:21:36 But De Anzel Dawkins, he's badass. I like him. I mean, he's always, other than he's good in the ring. And he's funny. He makes me laugh. But I think the street profits are awesome, man. I wish, or I don't want them to just not, just don't, don't do them dirty. I mean, let them win again and keep her for a while.
Starting point is 00:22:04 But yeah, I don't, I don't want them to be like comedic. Yeah, I kind of felt like that's what they did last time with the whole stealing the Pizza Hut pizzas and stuff throwing them out to the crowd. Yeah, that, that didn't work. at all. Even the crowd turned on. That was, I can't remember with pay-per-view. I think was that last year when it happened
Starting point is 00:22:27 or the year before? That was, uh, what was the last paper review? I think it was the last one. But yeah, this match was good. CBS Sports gave it just, just a B. I'd have probably
Starting point is 00:22:45 gave it a B-plus. I mean, I thought they really, really went don't they really went for it i mean they really the um it flew by pretty fast because it was a really fast-paced match on what these guys were doing i i watch um the old classic stuff
Starting point is 00:23:02 and when you see like like jake to snake and andre going at it i mean that that wrestling was that wrestling at that time in the 80s and we loved it but watching it now and in 2021 2021, 2022. It's kind of like, oh, man, what are these guys doing?
Starting point is 00:23:28 Nothing to take away from any of that for all you, oh, geez that are listening. But, I mean, hey, I love that too. That was my era and everything. But this match was awesome.
Starting point is 00:23:37 I really loved what was going on. Them just back and forth, beating the hell out of each other. I said, I mean, Randy looks like he's having a good time. he's out there doing what he does and he's in good shape but I don't know I just kind of
Starting point is 00:23:58 have this feeling that he's like what am I doing why am I doing this how come I'm not being a single again but I don't know maybe they're I assume they're just pushing riddle but I don't think riddle needs a push man he's he was badass in NXT he's still badass now but yeah he knows they don't know what to do with anybody. Maybe he would have got lost in the shuffle if they just let him run out there on his own.
Starting point is 00:24:29 The kickoff show with ricochet probably. I did love the, when Randy gave the, the street profits, the double DDT off the ropes. Oh, man. But yeah, this match was, this one was really good. And when Randy ended up pulling it out at the end, that's when Amigos jumped in the ring. They didn't do anything, but they all jumped in. But the street profits gave R.K. Bro their props.
Starting point is 00:25:03 I mean, usually when somebody loses, they just roll out of the ring and that's it. Now, they stayed in the ring and they shook hands and hugged and everything. So I thought that was a good ending. All right, this match I was really looking forward to. I mean, I love Edge and I love Ms. But I don't know. CBS Sports gave it a C-minus. I would be all right with that.
Starting point is 00:25:30 I don't know what they have no chemistry. Yeah, I mean, I love both of them. Don't get me wrong. I mean, the Miz is awesome. He's good on the mic and he's good at what he does. He's a good heel. But I don't know. I was excited for it, but then when the match was going, I was like, eh, okay.
Starting point is 00:25:55 I mean, they were just, not, they didn't do anything too exciting that I can remember other than, um, uh, what the hell's our name? Um, Maurice. Yeah. When, when she kind of gets involved and it doesn't do anything, but then, uh, Beth Phoenix came out. can we talk about how they botched that yeah she came out too early or did they just not play the music there's a youtube channel called botchamania and they kind of made it seem like they just couldn't get the music
Starting point is 00:26:36 playing and she just had to I guess for some reason just stand there and look mean and couldn't move until the music hit but this this is just all a big setup for which it's already been announced a mixed tag team match at rural rumble so i don't i i didn't like this match it the pacing was slow they just seemed not work well together in the ring i mean they were great on the mic leading up to this but i don't know i i i didn't really get this feud yeah i was just about to say that the lead up to this with them battling each other,
Starting point is 00:27:18 roughing each other up, talking hell of shit on the mic, and I was expecting greatness. I didn't get it. This match. I mean, don't get me wrong. They're both awesome. But it just,
Starting point is 00:27:32 I don't know, it just kind of fell flat with this one. But Edge ended up pulling it out at the end, via pinfall. This one was ruined to me. I think when we were recording whatever, regular show
Starting point is 00:27:47 Horror Returns be sure to check out HorrorRetons.com pick up a few t-shirts I saw a picture when we were recording now I kind of
Starting point is 00:28:01 made the mistake of getting on my phone and I saw a picture I thought that was Lita at first because I just got a glimpse of it and then I Oh, that would have been
Starting point is 00:28:12 amazing. Yeah I thought it was her but then I was thinking why would they why would they do that again? I mean he's married so I can't see that that would have been so amazing because he did the brood thing.
Starting point is 00:28:30 Yeah. And then if Lita came back and he did the rated R superstar gimmick all over again. He should have brought out of the bed. He's married though. Kind of brought out of the bed and Beth come out and beat her up. but yeah she came out and I thought she was going to beat the hell out of Maurice but nothing happened there.
Starting point is 00:28:57 She just chased her around the ring and just like Beth Phoenix man, the Glamazon man. That's a big gal. I still give her her props because that Royal Rumble a couple years ago before the world fell apart when Edge made his return she fucking slashed her head open
Starting point is 00:29:14 and just kept the show going. so but yeah we'll see in a few weeks for Roll Rumble when all that happens but
Starting point is 00:29:26 I didn't like the the braids or whatever how she was rocking her hairdo but I don't know we'll see how that goes but yeah again
Starting point is 00:29:37 yeah this match was a C-minus Edge pulled it out via pinfall well before before he got pinned when he saw when Ms.
Starting point is 00:29:50 saw Beth chasing Maurice around and you see Beth talking shit to Ms. and he's yelling back at her and of course. I love it how they anybody who acts like that they don't know what's happening when they're yelling at someone outside of the ring and then
Starting point is 00:30:06 nonchalant just turn around and then get kicked, hit or whatever, but you know Ed's came out of nowhere and speared him hell of hard because I don't think he did any spears until this one at the end. But I love when Edge does it spear, so I was happy with
Starting point is 00:30:22 it. The next one, I was excited and they both went hard. But boy, before we dive into this, what happened to Sasha Banks? She gets hurt?
Starting point is 00:30:37 Yeah, I think I might be saying it wrong, but I think Charlotte at a house show was giving her a back break. and then she landed on her foot wrong. All right. So she's out. Well, heal up because I think they're going to start filming the Mandalorian pretty soon.
Starting point is 00:30:59 Oh, she says she's not in this next season. I mean, she could be just saying that, but. They need to give them their own show. The hell's the name, Bocatan and all of them, Starbuck. but this next match the raw women's championship match the man big time becks or whatever the hell
Starting point is 00:31:25 she calls herself now Becky Lynch taking on Liv Morgan don't get me wrong I mean I love Becky Lynch I still don't see why they kept Liv Morgan around I mean she's beautiful don't get me wrong and she does what she
Starting point is 00:31:45 does in the ring actually was actually pretty good in this match. But getting rid of Ruby Ryan and Sarah Logan, Sarah Logan was the muscle. And Ruby Ryan was just the leader in the look, but I don't know. Maybe they just didn't like the tattoos and all that. Good that she's a Ruby Soho now over on AEW.
Starting point is 00:32:10 But I know Liv Morgan was your girl with her pink or blue tongue or whatever else she kept doing when she was eating suckers and all that. What would you think of this match? What a bunch of bullshit. I don't know. What is this like the third time she lost to Becky? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:33 I mean, what is the point? Just have her lose and then cry and just fucking look stupid in the ring. I don't like the direct. I don't like any direction they fucking do would live Morgan. They didn't do anything when she was in the riot squad.
Starting point is 00:32:51 They had that stupid where they were running them little videos of her in the tub, and that went nowhere. Then they did the whole, she was Lana's side piece, and that went nowhere. I don't know. And then I kind of felt like they botched the ending. It looked like there was a few times they were a little rusty. I put Becky Lynch in a much higher skill level than Liv Morgan. And I see why they kept around.
Starting point is 00:33:32 I mean, she's beautiful and everything. But when they put these the more lower card performers, when they put them up with the main eventers it's it always to me it always just seems I'm sure something you're probably yelling at me but it seems like the the main stars are just there
Starting point is 00:33:59 and I mean they they still do what they do but it just doesn't seem like they I don't know I don't know what I'm trying to say here but I don't know I just feel that Becky needs to be fighting the
Starting point is 00:34:17 Charlotte fighting I don't want to see that Who else is it is or what's her name you know yes EST yeah
Starting point is 00:34:27 I mean I still said that was bullshit at SummerSlam but I want to see that match again I want to see it them both go
Starting point is 00:34:40 really hard because they both go hard and I want to see Bianca pull it out again but I don't know we'll see I can't believe I'm going to say this but bring Bailey back well I don't look like she's gonna be back for a while I'm hearing maybe Royal Rumble oh she comes out in a Rumble that'd be cool but
Starting point is 00:35:02 yeah let her let her win the Rumble and let her let her challenge Becky but keep it keep Bailey heal yeah don't don't bring a hug life back and all that bullshit don't bring in the side pony here
Starting point is 00:35:19 no no slap bracelets and wacky air guys and she killed those guys she killed all that so I mean even give me the the newscaster or whatever she was our little talk show yeah yeah that was that's when
Starting point is 00:35:38 I started. I was like, okay, I like what you're doing now. I follow her on Instagram and it's just been doctor appointment after doctor appointment. So hopefully she heals up and comes back. But yeah, this this match wasn't the greatest. They gave it a B. But obviously you see Becky carrying Liv Morgan the whole match. But I mean, not to say that Liv Morgan just.
Starting point is 00:36:08 absolutely was terrible. She's better than she was. So it's good to see her out there, but I don't know. It just seemed like Becky was carrying her the whole time. Becky, let's, she pulled it out via pinfall.
Starting point is 00:36:26 And would I have graded this would be? Maybe B minus. I mean, I wouldn't go as far as maybe a C plus, but I give a C. And, and, Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:36:42 On to the main event. Before I give my piece on it all, what did you think of the main event? The main event, the WW championship match, Biggie, taking on the almighty Bobby Lashley, Kevin Owens, and Seth, freaking Rawlins. Tom. It's the Monday Night Messiah. Yeah. Oh, geez. Monday Night Rollins or whatever the L.T. called himself.
Starting point is 00:37:15 And taking on the beast, Brock Lesnar. All right. What did you think of this, this one? Oh, why they do biggie like that? Why? I don't. This drove me crazy. I don't even doubt the words right now.
Starting point is 00:37:40 I knew Brock was going to pull it out when they announced that he was in this match. I just fucking knew it. They always have to put the belt on him. And what really pissed me off, he didn't have to pin Biggie, but he did. And it just, I don't, I don't see Biggie in the title picture for a minute now. Unless he goes over to Smackdown. I thought the match was fine. it seemed kind of quick
Starting point is 00:38:11 yeah which kind of makes sense because Brock Brock don't do them long matches you know he's he's a he's a superstar likes to get in and get out and he he knew he was getting the belt and everything you've seen his reaction after that guy he broke character that guy was high fiving fans
Starting point is 00:38:33 and smiling and laughing and just made me sick made me sick and the reason why I say they're Big E's not in the picture no more because now that you're going to set up the Bobby Lashley, Brock Lesnar match that everybody's been won ever since they started doing MMA back in the day. So that's what we got to look forward to. But I was pissed off.
Starting point is 00:39:03 I knew it was going to win. This match, this was actually supposed to be the universal title. But since Roman got sick, I don't think they should have let him win. Let him go win the universal title whenever that happens, if it does happen. But I think, I mean, I think Big E should have still been the champ. I mean, but again, when we know Brock Lesnar is coming back, like, they're going to put a belt on him. He's not coming back for nothing just to get beat up and then disappear again. But he was the fucking last one to be introduced to.
Starting point is 00:39:48 I was like, come on. That's what they think of Biggie. They just slapped him in his face. It was like, here, Biggie, you get out there first. Yeah. And you knew. So. But, oh, man.
Starting point is 00:40:04 But with that being said, and I mean, the little side gripes and around, I actually loved this match. I watched it a few times. I mean, because this match, it was really short because it was so fast-paced. Because when Brock Lesnar, he barely got in the ring before they attacked him. And then he went on the attack because Biggie and Almighty were they attacked each other. And then they fell out of the ring. And they were fighting on the outside.
Starting point is 00:40:33 But then Brock Lesnar just commencing to whoop an ass on the team of Kevin Owens and Seth Rollins. And of course, German suplex is throwing them. all over the place because he roughed the shit out of them. It looked like one, when he threw, when Brock threw Kevin Owen's bag, it looked like he came down on his head. Yeah. Yeah, there was a couple times for Rollins, too. Yeah, because I was like, man, I mean, he's a big brute and he's just going to throw you
Starting point is 00:41:08 all over the ring and in, I'm just thankfully that, man, I'm sure they were all sore as hell when it was over with, but I'm just glad none of them got seriously injured from those German suplexes. But once he started basically threw them all out of the ring, Big E jumped in the ring and started roughing up Brock
Starting point is 00:41:30 Lesnar and they gave him a clothesline and threw him out of Brock Blak, Blak, Blak, Blak, and fell out. Because then for a while the action got going on outside because then Big E he was the only one in the ring he stepped out of the ring went after almighty almighty picked him up and then
Starting point is 00:41:49 slammed big e into the post and then this part was awesome uh Brock Lesnar still staggering around outside over by the bell and the almighty Bobby Lashley just comes running and just tackles Brach Lesnar and he goes crashing through through the barricade and it looked like Brock Lesnar hit his head when he fell back because it seemed like he
Starting point is 00:42:14 I don't know if he jumped up or what, but... This man, Bunn protected him. I hate that air style, man. This little genie cut. I'm hoping somebody comes out with clippers and shaves it off or so because it looks stupid. So he's laying there all, Brock Lesnar's laying it all beat up. He jumps in the ring attacks Kevin Owens. And then Seth Rollins jumps back in.
Starting point is 00:42:39 And Bobby Lashley just commences to throwing them all over the ring and beating them up. and when he was holding him straight up and then Kevin Owens came in and gave him a super kick to the ribs. I thought he kicked Seth Rohns in the face. But I think he got Bobby Lashley in the stomach because he kind of went down and this is when Seth Rones and Kevin Owens
Starting point is 00:43:08 double kicked, super kicked, Lashley out of the ring. But this part was awesome. after that. When those two were in the ring, Brock Lesnar stood up and he was staggering around. Seth Rownes came running out of the door out of the ring, knocked him down.
Starting point is 00:43:24 And while Brock Lesnar was laying there, Kevin Owens off the side of the ring, there's a splash right on to Brock Lesnar. And you hear that impact. And Kevin Owens went up high and came down on a, other than you hear him slamming onto the hard rubber, a mat that's around the ring you hear Brock so I thought that was awesome
Starting point is 00:43:49 so he's laying their beat up they end up going after Bobby Lashley with the steel stairs and knock him down and then they take their attention back over to Brock Lesner you can clearly see
Starting point is 00:44:06 I don't know if Brock Lesnar wanted to get cut because when they when Kevin Owens and Seth Browns came running at Brock Lesnar with the stairs. He like went into that stairs head first. He didn't even try to put his hands up. But then no blood or anything, Drew.
Starting point is 00:44:25 So he got knocked down and he's laying there again. They go over to the announce table. They start clearing it. They drag over. They put the little stairs in front of the table. They go over to get Almighty, pick him up. MVP is killing. me, man. He bucks me.
Starting point is 00:44:47 He's on the side rigged his suit and his Cade. But Kevin Owens and Bobby Kevin Owens and Seth Rarrow tried to pick up Bobby Lashley and slammed through the table but he ended up giving him a few one-toos and they both fell down. But Big E. came out of
Starting point is 00:45:03 nowhere. He came running up while Bobby Lashley was still standing on top of the stairs. He gave him a few gut shots and then he just picks up Bobby Lashley. and just gave him a slam onto the announce table, then that goes falling apart. So Biggie was all hyped up and everything.
Starting point is 00:45:24 But then Kevin Owens comes in and super kicks Biggie to the face, and then he goes down. All right, and really quick, MVP. Did he get hurt? Yeah, he did. Okay. I figured that so much because he just, he's been on the outside of the real.
Starting point is 00:45:43 for a while now so all right he's he's good on the mic so that's good for bobby because bobby sometimes he's not so great no he's just the big brute that he is
Starting point is 00:45:58 uh biggie i guess thrown back into the ring Kevin owens and pick up Seth wrong said Kevin Owen Seth Rons pick up uh Brock Lesnar and they give him a double DDT onto the steel stairs so he's laying there again um
Starting point is 00:46:13 Kevin Owens and Seth Rounds jump back in the ring and they try to rough up Big E, but he turns it on him, gives Seth Rons a little power slam. But then this is what I didn't get. I mean, it was a cool move, but when Big E, he kind of gave Kevin Owens the forearm, but then he stumbled back. Big E ran and came off the top rope and then jumped in the air. and then this is when Kevin Owens got Biggie into a power bomb and just slammed him onto the mat. He tried to pin him, but Biggie kicked out. So while Biggie is still laying there on the mat, Kevin Owens jumps up. He climbs up up to the top rope.
Starting point is 00:47:02 And does this Jeff Hardy impression. Does this want to. But this was also because it was unexpected. He landed right on a boom and then rolled out of the way. But whoever, the cameraman, they didn't do a good job because Seth Rallons comes out of nowhere. Off the top rope and lands on Biggie and goes for the pin, but Biggie kicks out. But the replay from a different camera angle looked awesome because we're not even paying attention to where Seth Rounds is. but then he just comes flying out of the air.
Starting point is 00:47:41 So I thought that was awesome. Biggie looked like he got the wind knocked out of him. Because he got hit twice. So Biggie's laying there. Seth Rollins jumps up. Everyone's hooting and hollering. He goes to try to just rough him up some more and give him a neck breaker. But he ends up just hitting him in the back, a forearm to the back of Biggie's big neck.
Starting point is 00:48:06 And then he falls down. Seth Rowland gets all juiced up. He goes running in to give the curb stomp to Big E. But then out of nowhere, here comes Brock Lesnar running in. He grabs, right when Seth Rond jumps up to give Big E the curbstom, he scoops him up, gets him over his shoulder, boom, spins him F5. He goes down. Big E jumps up. Brock Lezner picks him up, gets him into it, F5.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Kevin Owens tries to get involved. And then he picks him up. F5 and he's like yeah Brock Lesnar's all hyped up and I said this earlier when when the Mizz it was pretty much almost the same thing Miz when he was dealing with
Starting point is 00:48:50 Beth Phoenix on the outside of the ring getting all hyped up and yelling Brock Lesnar after he slammed all or F5ed all those guys he turned around to the crowd and yelled and then he slowly spun around and the almighty came out of nowhere
Starting point is 00:49:07 and speared him hell hard. I thought that was it. I thought Bobby Lashley was going to win. But Brock Lesnar, so you know he's got to be. So he kicked out of that. But that was cool, though, man,
Starting point is 00:49:22 because what was going on, it was moving so fast. And Bobby Lashley came out of nowhere in a pendant. Barack Lennner's all roughed up. Bobby Lashley is standing up behind him and then puts the hurt lock on to him. So he's flipping around and Brock was,
Starting point is 00:49:39 he just can't act. But it looked like he was going to fade. But then Biggie comes running in and he kicks, or no, he hits Bobby Lashley to the back of the head and he lets go of Brock. And he picks up, Biggie picks up Bobby Lashley and gives him the, what's that move that he does? The big ending. Yeah, he gives Bobby the big ending.
Starting point is 00:50:06 Yeah. He gives Bobby the Bally. big ending he falls down brock gets up he picks him big e picks up brock is about to give him the big ending but then brock turns it around picks up big e at five and one two three and Brock legend is your new wwee champion um again i watched this over and over and i was basically watching this one's commentated but you knew big e was without you knew that was it because the way he just laid there and didn't even try to kick out or anything and then I was like again it was awesome match CBS sports gave it a minus I would just
Starting point is 00:50:52 give it an A because I was I was when I first watched this I was I was screaming and yelling and all that but it was so fast pace I don't know if they were running out of time and we're telling him to hurry up, but they did what they did. And Brock Lesnar won. And yeah, I seen those videos of him. Usually he's just not a crowd guy. He just does what he does. And from what I understand, it doesn't like people coming up to him at the airports or whatever.
Starting point is 00:51:25 But he, yeah, he was smiling, high-fiving everybody. I seen a few TikToks where he went, yeah, got in their videos and was, high-fiving whoever they were. So, who knows, it's a new year? Maybe this is a new Brock. Yeah, new hairstyle. He's cut that hair. I hate it. It's so stupid.
Starting point is 00:51:48 But I did enjoy this match. It's probably my favorite match of the night. I didn't like the ending, but it did Biggie dirty. But, yeah. I mean, other than he had Biggie had to lose. They slap him in the face. and you got to get pinned as well. So because even the announcers were like,
Starting point is 00:52:10 and he pinned Biggie to win the title. I was like, uh, and that reminds me. I ask you every pay-per-view. What did you think of Cory Graves? I hate him, period. But the other dude was getting on my nerves
Starting point is 00:52:25 because he'd be calling the wrong, the wrong moves, his last few pay-per-views. He's getting better. He kind of made me laugh a few times. But overall, I thought the pay-per-view was good. There was a couple, mainly the Mizz and the edge match. I was a little eh about, but the rest of it, I thought it was good.
Starting point is 00:52:49 But, yeah, Royal Rumble is next. It happens January 29th. But during this, there was a little video of Jackass. This is Johnny Knoxville. I love Johnny. Don't get me wrong. I met him. I thought he was a cool guy.
Starting point is 00:53:11 I loved all the jackass movies. Can't wait to see the next one. And I watched the show and everything. I saw all the big brother stuff before Jackass even became a thing. But I know he's going to be in the Royal Rumble because if you guys watch Smackdown this past Friday, he threw Sammy Zane over the top rope. I don't do my boy like that. to get to get his qualifying spot in the rumble i know johnny's there just to hype up the uh the movie um they have been a part of uh some previous stuff uh dealing with the company i know um somebody's
Starting point is 00:53:56 going to destroy johnny knoxville he's i'm calling it he's going to take one hell of a bump um yeah I think other than getting roughed up in the ring, Sammy Zane is going to go after him. But if he doesn't fall out of the ring hard, I don't know. But I think he's going to, he's going to regret getting involved in the World Rumble. Because, I mean,
Starting point is 00:54:24 he's not just going to get beat up by Sammy Zane. Everyone else that's in there. It's going to get eliminated by almost. He won't be in there very long. But if he wins the Royal Rumble, that's when we know come on there is people saying he's going to win he's going to win watch I'm like uh because the movie doesn't cut the new movie doesn't come out to the next month
Starting point is 00:54:51 but I'll give it to Johnny what he's done to his body and everything just to make us laugh I don't know how old he is now he's all gray hair now but I see him getting really hurt. I don't know, but if you have to pick what number do you think he's going to come in? One. No, he can't come in at one.
Starting point is 00:55:22 He's got to come in. And he gets beat up the entire night. He's got to come in after Sammy Zane. So if Sammy Zane is the number one, I don't know. But I think he's going to throw Sammy Zane out again. and then someone else throw him out or who knows,
Starting point is 00:55:42 maybe they do the Sina Batista and both fall over at the same time. I don't know. You give Johnny a lot of credit there. I don't know what they're doing. We know what they're doing just to hype up the movie. So, I mean, that's cool.
Starting point is 00:56:01 WW has done that a lot. But as far as the women I see that lead is in it and other than Mickey James as well and who do you think is going to pull it out I don't know why Charlotte's in it
Starting point is 00:56:27 let's tell you that right now let me pull up to you know you know I like my shotsies and mazzalinas but they ain't winning I can see Maria um
Starting point is 00:56:55 Lita I love you but I know you're you ain't you ain't winning I just don't want her to get hurt I just I cringe every time she gets involved but I mean to be real I mean
Starting point is 00:57:13 Shana would just destroy everybody, but they ain't pushing her to do anything. So I was going to say, why? Why not? I mean, okay, these are the three. These are the three I'm picking, but I'm going to have to pick one out of them. Shana, I love Sheena, Shati, I got, she's from the base, I got to represent, but I'm in love with Ria Ripley.
Starting point is 00:57:45 Yeah, I'm a dirty old man. she's only what 25 26 she's awesome though I love her in the ring but out of those three I might have to go Shana I hope she wins but um
Starting point is 00:58:09 I know I see what's her names in this picture too um she was she was in the Marine 4 Marine 5 uh one blonde chick what the hell was her name um I think how which blonde one you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:58:30 If you're looking at the picture of the of the girl, she's in the top row all the way on the right, the very last one. Oh, Summer Ray. Yes, I was going to say Ray something. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:46 The two Mamas are jumping in. Nikki and Bree. Okay. I'm a collard right here. It just popped in my head because these ain't all the participants. Pence. Yeah. E. O'Sahri makes her debut and takes it or returning Oscar. I could see it. I would like Nikki H. to win. I don't know. Um, 24-7 champ. No, I think she's going to lose that title. Something's going to happen to where.
Starting point is 00:59:32 It's almost going to pin her. I mean, she's going to lose it during the Rumble. But I don't know. We'll see. We see Kelly Kelly on there. Oh, so hot. I've always loved her. But she's been in the past few Rumbles never wins.
Starting point is 00:59:47 But it's good to see her come running out there when her music hits. But yeah, I would love to see Shana destroy everyone. But if I got to pick who the final two is going to come down to, If it's not Charlotte and Ria, I want it to be Ria and Shana at the end, or even the final three Shotsie as well. But I don't know. We'll see what's going on. But as far as the guys, Johnny, I love you, but I know you ain't winning.
Starting point is 01:00:27 I don't know. I think once the women started getting there, their own rumble I'm always more excited for that so yeah we'll see but yeah that takes place January 29th and where they at St. Louis
Starting point is 01:00:44 or I can't remember where they said they're going to be at it doesn't say well I'm just on their Instagram page but WWE's day one I mean I enjoyed it I mean all the matches are exciting
Starting point is 01:01:05 minus edge in the Miz, but yeah, that's it. Again, I didn't really care for the outcome of the main event, but we knew he was going to win. We knew it. Of course he was going to win. So, let's see how long his title runs. Hopefully it's short. Maybe he loses a WrestleMania, maybe who knows? Maybe he loses it in the Royal Rumble. Do you think he's going to be in the Rumble? No. No, he's
Starting point is 01:01:39 Who's Almighty fighting him? Is he going out to Brock Listener? Is he fighting Biggie? I'm going to say at the Rumble, it's going to be Biggie, Bobby and Brock for the title. All right, I'd like to see that. Biggie will be, he'll be in the Rumble. All right, yeah, we'll see. Who knows, maybe Biggie will come in and help Bobby rough up. but then Brock will still be the champion and I don't know everyone we'll see when we get there
Starting point is 01:02:16 but yeah I'm excited for the Royal Rumble mainly the gals match so we'll see but day one yeah it was cool for what it was for to start off 2022 but um there was something else
