Starting point is 00:00:06 Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, welcome to another episode of the wrestling returns. Welcome back, everybody, to a new episode of the wrestling returns. I'm your host, Brian. With me, as always, is my brother, Nez. What's up, man? Yo, I'm good. Everyone, yeah, it's been a minute. This happened a while ago.
Starting point is 00:00:28 SummerSlam. But, like we always say, life, life gotten away at a little funeral and some other things. so but anyway we're back and we're ready to do this what did you think of the first night I was
Starting point is 00:00:47 underwhelmed I thought it started out with the bang and it ended with the bang but through the middle I was kind of bored yeah there was some
Starting point is 00:01:02 some stuff I was kind of like okay that's that's what we're doing here but like i felt like the i don't shout out to carrying cross you know hashtag we want cross yeah i don't like the way they did him did him dirty and then they got rid of him yeah yeah i was like what the did you did you watch his interview i i watched some of it yeah it's about they offered him a contract like the the the days of his being there and they told him he had 24 hours to accept it and he was asking for more information and they weren't giving it to him that's just how it is i don't know so i i didn't
Starting point is 00:01:55 i didn't care for that match uh tiffany stratton and jade cargo they obviously have left the hype train on jade because i was surprised she didn't win yeah Her not winning kind of tells me they're getting ready to just ace that story. Yeah, neither ace it or she's not ready yet. I mean, I thought they've been pushing her way too much, too fast, but who am I? We're only the number one wrestling podcast in our minds. Oh, before we dive in. everything.
Starting point is 00:02:44 The passing of Hulk Hogan, it happened when I was at Comic-Con. I woke up to the news and a little part of my childhood, well, more of my childhood has been going. Also, Ozzy, we lost Ozzie. Especially Hogan, I mean,
Starting point is 00:03:06 wrestling, I can look at him as, was I part of Hulcomani? a little Hulk of Maniac when I was a kid Of course I was I don't agree with his life And what he was doing and in the shit he said But I don't like the shit that went down with his daughter
Starting point is 00:03:27 All the shit she's coming out with Yeah I was watching some stuff on that And I'm like He wouldn't even go meet His grandson or What she had twins Yeah I mean, she was saying that, yeah, he's my dad and I love him and that.
Starting point is 00:03:47 But, yeah, I don't... Only what they put in, out to us that we know. Yeah, I mean, it's got to be pretty serious when you tell them to take your name off the will. Yeah. That you don't want, no part of it. Uh-uh. But, I mean... To me, it was rest and peace to the character.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Yeah, rest and peace, the whole... Hogan. But man, everyone came out of the woodwork on why they hated Ogun. I was like, well, I mean, hey, but we weren't there.
Starting point is 00:04:25 We weren't in the locker room. We don't know what was going on back to. Only what was said by other people. But I mean, I get it. And I believe it. Hulk never came out and said, no, none of that happened. But Jesse the body
Starting point is 00:04:38 Undertaker was even throwing Jabs out of about other things and yeah, it was it was wild I mean, but like I said, I was all about Hulkomania. I was a little hoaxter. Yeah. But you know what? I don't condone or agree with a lot of the shit he said, but, you know, still rest in peace to that, man.
Starting point is 00:05:05 You know, that was somebody's father. Yeah, that was That was That was my childhood Watching wrestling I just rewatched No Holt's bar I've seen that in forever
Starting point is 00:05:19 I mean I watched Rocky 3 I mean thunderlips that was Yeah, that was awesome Rest of Peace thunder lips Yeah That was If you know you know Yeah that was awesome
Starting point is 00:05:32 I mean there was even some Heat about that Coming from Vince and everything but yeah but uh it was rough man um was it theo huxtable malcolm jrmoor warner same week oh man that that Ozzie then Hulk oh man i was like my childhood was just three hits within a week yeah it was crazy but yeah rest in peace Hulk and rest in peace Ozzy and Malcolm Jamal Warner. This first match,
Starting point is 00:06:12 I was excited. It was a tag team match. Bronbreaker, Bronson Reed. Yeah, get its title right now. The tribal thief. Came in with the Shula Fala. This is stupid.
Starting point is 00:06:33 I mean, why is this got to be a storyline with the Shula? shoes. I was just like, man. Because he's a bully. I guess. And Paul Heyman. We'll get to him. We'll get to him later. Taking on
Starting point is 00:06:54 the main event, J. Uso and Roman Reigns. What is it? TC1 now? That shit is so stupid. Because that means, if you're the number one tribal chief, that means there's other tribal chief. You should just only be the tribal chief. OTC was cool.
Starting point is 00:07:19 That rolled off the tongue a little bit better. Yeah, my wife represents. She got an OTC shirt. When she saw that shirt, she was all about it. And yeah, we met Roman Raines, and she was like, oh, my God. I was like, damn, take it easy. You don't even watch wrestling.
Starting point is 00:07:38 But yeah, I was like, okay, but then I was kind of, I mean, he could have put one of those other sorry matches in the beginning, which you can start it off. Big with the big dogs. Sammy and Carrion should have opened. Yeah. I mean, this match was cool. I mean, they all did what they did.
Starting point is 00:08:01 I mean, you got three big brutes and Jay Uso. I mean, speaking of that, I don't think we've recorded since Comic-Con. I finally got to Yeat. with Jay Uso, which was hell. Yeah, I saw your video. I finally got to. I don't know if he was tired or what, but he seemed kind of weird when he came out. But it was cool, though.
Starting point is 00:08:26 He came out. Everybody was on their feet. Everybody was eating and all that and had the hands moving and everything. So I was like, yeah, that was cool. And then, of course, the CM Punk came out and just, he was a surprise guest. We were all thinking it was going to be John Sina because he was there for peacemaker, but they said that he wasn't obligated to be here. But he made you guys this video.
Starting point is 00:08:53 I was like, aw, he could have came out. He's a busy man. Yeah, he was there. Oh, they did do the encore because when Jay Usu came out first and everyone was, eating and then he kind of calmed down for a minute and then everyone was going on encore then the music kicked back in that's the video that I recorded
Starting point is 00:09:17 well that was cool especially when punk came out we were all hyped and uh jesus got a ton of figures coming out they must have showed if not 10 over 10 figures that he got me and the guy next to me were like damn how many
Starting point is 00:09:37 figures do you need but uh he gotta get paid I guess I don't think they're gonna be putting that belt back on him for a while yeah so but everyone's getting a new figure
Starting point is 00:09:52 oh Julia was there oh my God seeing her in person man she's beautiful and she had her she had her figure they brought a prototype one out for her so she was excited
Starting point is 00:10:07 sucks about Zoe start I don't know if she's coming back but we'll see because she just got her figure last year
Starting point is 00:10:21 and then later earlier this year boom knee just went the wrong way that was that was brutal if you guys have seen the video just look her up
Starting point is 00:10:35 but yeah this match I mean it was good I mean, they do what they do. I mean, Bronson Reed, I've said this before. I'm like, dude, stop jumping off high things. I mean, yeah, the doctors say, oh, when you break your ankle or break whatever, when it grows back together, it's stronger.
Starting point is 00:10:58 I don't know. I'm not a doctor, but I'm still like, be careful. When he jumps off either the second, sometimes the third rope. but I mean he's he's still doing him Bronbreaker he's just a big brute he's doing this thing
Starting point is 00:11:18 but I thought he hurt Roman rains when he came running when they're on the outside of the ring and just dove in the air and came down and connected with Roman in the face and then he went down yeah
Starting point is 00:11:32 I thought he hurt himself when he dove on Roman onto onto the announce table yeah because there was a bunch of videos of him like you can see him like backstage like limping around. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:49 I mean he goes hard. Bronbreaker, he goes hell of hard. So you got to expect it. I mean, everybody gets hurt in this business. Still don't know why he's not Bronz Steiner. I was listening to Chris Van Fleet's podcast and talking to his dad
Starting point is 00:12:11 and they asked how come he's not Steiner and he's like well he kind of wants to be his his own thing he goes I get it and I respect it he didn't want to ride the Steiner name but we all know
Starting point is 00:12:28 but he's I mean I get it he's trying to he's a part of that family dynasty but he's trying to make his own name that's what I'm I got out of all of that, but... I like he does the callbacks, though. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:44 The barking like his dad, the Steiner Math. Yeah. He'd be trying to do. I mean, he does what he does. I mean, he's a big brute. He's only got a handful of moves. The spear. He almost killed.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Speed. Yeah, speed. Which I guess Goldberg said he's the only, that he approves of doing the spear? I guess. He said nobody else should be doing it. I mean, everybody does
Starting point is 00:13:21 everybody's moves, especially if they get moves from the OGs. They just change the name. I mean, 3D, what? They would do the the Uso's were doing 1D. Oh, come on. But
Starting point is 00:13:36 oh, man, I was reading this thing that the Deadlies want to do one more run with the Hardy boys. Yeah, they're supposed to be, I don't know what T&A pay-per-view, but they're supposed to be doing tables, ladders, and chairs.
Starting point is 00:13:57 Well, Jeff said, he goes, I can't do what I used to do. He goes, I still do some stuff, but there's some moves that made him that he won't do anymore. Have you seen them wrestle recently? it's it's coming to an end yeah it's i mean they do some stuff but they they they're a little slow
Starting point is 00:14:20 but i mean we're all slow when we get older i mean they're not the young hardies anymore so i don't know well we'll see but yeah i mean this match it took a minute to get going but when once it did get going they they were going for it with all the outside of the ring and man they were just beating the hell out of Jay yeah like 80% of the match they were just kicking his ass
Starting point is 00:14:52 yeah the crowd was screaming we want Roman as Jay's getting his ass beat but once Roman sprung in the play uh oh it was Jay was going against uh Bronson Reed and then
Starting point is 00:15:09 Jay finally kind of got the upper edge and boom he tags in Roman and then Roman comes in get the Bronr breaker starts dropping clothes lines on him throws him off the road Braun throws Roman off the break boom dive out of the air for a flying through the air clothes line
Starting point is 00:15:26 Bronson fall or uh, Braun kind of falls down acts like he's hurt and then they just start roaming starts doing some corner work on him just giving them some forearms to or uh just I don't know
Starting point is 00:15:41 clothes lines or I don't know what it was just basically just swinging on him did you see that one spot Roman suicide dived over the rope out of the ring and basically missed yeah I was like
Starting point is 00:15:55 you guys they were just a little too close and he almost got hurt I'm glad he didn't he almost cleared them and I was looking at my daughter like man that guy's got movies to film you can't be doing this
Starting point is 00:16:10 do it when there's a bunch of guys that are not two guys but he yeah he dives off boom he runs leaves and they did kind of slow him down because once he went over
Starting point is 00:16:25 he flipped so it's not like he came down right on his head but they like just kind of slowed him down with hands they didn't really take much impact to their bodies or anything because yeah
Starting point is 00:16:39 I'm glad he fully rotated though yeah because they kind of grabbed him and he rotated and boom went down so and then he gets back in the ring rock bottoms brahm breaker the ones go up and he's ready to get into him even my wife what's up with his teeth oh the veneers yeah i'm like man he's doing this thing leave him along. Fronson Reed tries to get in the act. He runs up and Superman punches him. Braun pins him for a second.
Starting point is 00:17:17 And then bra, ooh, high knee. That connected to Roman's head. So he goes down. Jay's laying on the outside dead somewhere because he's not. He got beat up there. Like you said, he got beat up through the whole match. And then finally Roman springs back in action. And Braun's whining up for his spirit.
Starting point is 00:17:38 here, but Superman punch connects to the jaw. He goes down. Roman's baby in his knee or something. Bronson Reed comes running in like a bowling ball, takes out Roman. He goes down. And Bronson Reed's
Starting point is 00:17:54 starting to get everyone hyped up. Bronz is laying there, just kind of moving around slowly. Romans getting to his feet. Bronson reads waiting for him to get up. And then he just springs into action. Full speed into Roman, boom, just clothesline in the corner. Jay springs back in action. He leads in
Starting point is 00:18:13 tags Roman. Then he's super kicked to Bronson to the belly. Bronson falls down. Jay goes on knee, slaps in the face, turns around. What's that move? Trouble in Paradise. Boom, kicks Bronson in the head. Jay springing to action. Romans there dead, but then Bronson, boom, comes at Jay with a close line. Yeah, Bronson Reed. does. Bron, he's slowly climbing into action. He picks up a J for an AA, boom, slams
Starting point is 00:18:46 him, goes in for the pen, but then he kicks out. I don't know what Roman in. He's laying there somewhere. It's his turn to be dead. But yeah, Roman, he sprung back into action. He jumped up.
Starting point is 00:19:01 Oh, no, no, before all that, they were commencing to beating the shit out of Jay. so he's getting his ass beat oh this was in Jersey right the giant giant stadium it's probably hot and humid I know that so
Starting point is 00:19:21 suicide died by Bronson yeah I don't know where oh where's Roman because they're still beating M.J yeah Brom Brayker comes running around the ring full speed yeah Superman punch
Starting point is 00:19:37 connects and then they put you in the corner where with that weak a weak quarter Roman Rain spears a brown breaker through that corner that always breaks Bronson Reese
Starting point is 00:19:52 he's on the apron of the ring he climbs down he's trying to get into action where's Jay at yeah I like how they made those people move before it happened the people that were sitting right there
Starting point is 00:20:07 on the corner time for you guys to move so there was a guy out of the way and out of the camera shot and fucking Paul Heyman standing out with the money in the bank briefcase with the are those Jordans?
Starting point is 00:20:23 Yeah and the Jordans around his neck Uh oh Bronson Reed's climbing up for a tsunami Ah just Oh man
Starting point is 00:20:38 he tries to do that but nope Roman rain runs up boom Superman punches him he falls off Jay's laying there dead he picks up Roman I don't know where Braun is Roman throws up the fingers Jay throws up the fingers they pick up bronze and reed they toss him
Starting point is 00:20:53 off the rows picking up one D the one and done so he's laying there dead to see the you know the guy the green shirt guy yeah was another guy, the yellow shirt guy. Yeah, I see him right there.
Starting point is 00:21:11 Yeah, black gentleman. I don't know where I am Leonard is. I don't think he made it out because I didn't see him either night. He's usually right there in the front. But they should redid that shot where he crashed through the corner. I don't think that security guard knew what was there. Because he spun around hella fast when they went crashing through there. everyone's back in the ring everyone's laying there
Starting point is 00:21:40 Roman and Jay Brons kind of got to his knees Bronson's laying there on his back worn out huffing and puffing I mean I like Braun but dude lay off the Tanner this shit was hilarious when he puts the straps back on and then takes him back
Starting point is 00:22:00 off real quick yeah I was like what's he do you think he can ever be a face or just continue his career as a heel he would have to do something amazing like i could see him being an in-betweener but a full face i he has to do something incredible he put the put him up took him back off and everyone still laying there beat him up and he's just walking around trying to hype up the crowd
Starting point is 00:22:40 no puts his sights on on jay because jay's kind of like slowly getting up and brown's getting all hyped up and yeah full speed run boom
Starting point is 00:22:54 oh roman pushes jay out of the way and he gets uh bronze spears uh roman and then j springs back into action super kicks uh brawn
Starting point is 00:23:06 Bronson Reed gets jumps back into action Jay bounces off the row Boom elbow or shoulder checks him He climbs up top Ah splash on the Bronson Reed I mean that's a big pillow to land on And then Jay pins Bronson Reed
Starting point is 00:23:21 I mean this match started off slow But I mean in the end once they got going I thought it was a good A good match But it still shouldn't have been first But who am I what would CBS Sports give this one?
Starting point is 00:23:43 Fuck, man. You're killing me. Mad at my wife. I mean, I take that back. There was a huge fire by my house. And it got to the point where my wife and my
Starting point is 00:24:04 grandsons and my son had to be not evicted. Evacuate. She was like, what do you want me to grab? I just grab my computer. Because that's got like my whole life in it, plus pictures and everything. Amongst all that, she lost my track pad. And I'm using, I had to dig out my mouse. And I hate it.
Starting point is 00:24:26 I hate this. It was so much easier doing the mouse or my track pad. But I basically had to relearn how to do everything with a mouse. but uh they graded this match a b plus yeah yeah um i'm i'm good with that i mean that's fine so but the next match uh this is all out of order so i don't know it is women's world tag team championship. Judgment Day versus Charlotte Flair
Starting point is 00:25:09 and Alexa Bliss with their We're not Friends T-shirts. Yeah. I'm Charlotte the Queen. I mean, I love you. You know that. Alexa Bliss I'm starting
Starting point is 00:25:29 to like her. I mean, I didn't really care for her in the beginning. Yeah. But Judgment Day, go ahead. This is all this tag team. It's just all so we like Charlotte Flair. They're trying their hardest to make her likable.
Starting point is 00:25:49 I mean, if you like her, you like her. But, I mean, people are still like, eh, they don't care about the queen anymore. But the Judgment Day, Raquel Perez and Raquel Perez, Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Peres. and uh raxan Perez um
Starting point is 00:26:11 I love Raquel Gonzales Rodriguez whatever you want to call her uh big mommy cool Roxanne Perez she's starting to grow on me
Starting point is 00:26:25 I mean I liked all her stingles and NXT stuff but did they just pick her just because live was gone
Starting point is 00:26:35 I want to know not live yeah live when she comes back is Roxanne out the door or what? No, I think, I think lives out of judgment day. I'm waiting for Dom just to take Roxanne. Did you see that clip of when he went to AAA?
Starting point is 00:26:57 Oh, was that when he jumped? Yeah, he jumped the guy and he had the mask on. Yeah. That was a loud pop for him. Yeah. That's tomorrow, everyone. We're recording. No, not tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Saturday. we're recording Thursday night yeah he said he wasn't it was weird for him getting that kind of reaction I mean it's good I mean
Starting point is 00:27:23 a good reaction so but that that's streaming on YouTube so we get to watch it I was like I was like oh week where is this going to be so that's on a Saturday night this match Yeah, I was leaning more towards judgment, judgment day.
Starting point is 00:27:47 But yeah, I like Charlotte. I like Alexa. Jessica in there doing her thing. But what did you think of this match? I thought it was a decent tag team match. I also was leaning more towards judgment day. But I just had this feeling because they're really pushing this tag team because they got the merch with the We're Not Friends, T-shirts,
Starting point is 00:28:13 and they're really pushing Charlotte into a more likable character. So I wasn't surprised by the outcome. Yeah, I mean, that was the same. Okay. I mean, I was fine with whoever won because I like all four of them. So I was like, just give us a good show.
Starting point is 00:28:35 But they went hard. I mean, Charlotte always goes hard. So, and Raquel and Alexa as well. So, but yeah, because it, It was going back and forth. I mean, Charlotte and Alexa were doing their thing. And then Raquel and Roxanne would jump in there and beat the hell out of these two. Oh, because Charlotte and Raquel, they're both tall.
Starting point is 00:29:01 And then Alexa and Roxanne are little short ones. So I liked what was going on here. I know some of the WWE universe turned on Charlotte. I never did. I've always liked her. So, I mean, I'm just, what she does in the ring,
Starting point is 00:29:23 I'm cool with it. She does give a 110% love her or hate her. I think she still does her thing. Yeah, I never turned on her either. It's just, I felt like a lot of those championship reins.
Starting point is 00:29:37 I don't think that were earned. I think they were just giving it to her. Oh, yeah. When they finally got the first, got rid of the Divas belt, just had the women's champion and they just I was like but now I feel like they replaced Charlotte with Becky Becky Hogan okay yeah Becky we'll get to her that's tomorrow the second night right yeah yeah they
Starting point is 00:30:10 stacked that second night yeah they did because that was the night of the uh The ladder match, the TLC. We'll get the... Candace Luray. She's... Yeah, she's legit. Good thing they cut that ladder. Oh man, I thought she fucked her knee up the way she came down on it, but that's all right.
Starting point is 00:30:37 Well, you see her on, I think it was raw or Smackdown, the giant bruise she had on her leg. Oh, yeah. Her knee connected before anything. else. Hit the ladder, then went straight to the ground. So. But yeah, again, this match was cool.
Starting point is 00:30:53 They all did their thing. They all beat each other up. I love when Raquel and Charlotte go at it. Two tall women just beating the hell out of each other. And Alexa's way better than Roxanne Perez. But I don't know if anyone, anyone else sees the, that way.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Oh, man. You're talking about in ring? Yeah. What do you think? Roxanne's better than Alexa? I put me out of spot. At times, I think
Starting point is 00:31:39 she can be. I mean, she did her job, man. She was in there. But. Because she came up as as a professional wrestler, I think Alexa came into this business from something else
Starting point is 00:31:56 because Roxanne's one of Booker T's Proteges. Yeah. But I mean, watching the crowd Alexa was more of the one of the crowd's favorite out of that tag team. Oh, absolutely. I'm glad that she went through that change to her character because when Alexa Bliss first came out, I did not like her at all.
Starting point is 00:32:28 You didn't like Little Miss Bliss? No, I didn't like any of that. I said this before, after the Bray Wyatt stuff, when she went nuts. That's when I started liking her. What else was she? The goddess? Yeah. The goddess.
Starting point is 00:32:45 No. She'd wear that stupid little glove, a little bedazzle, a little skeleton glove. Yeah. I, Roxanne tried to give a moonsal on Lexington. and Alexa, and Alexa, big kick to Raquel, DDT to Roxanne,
Starting point is 00:33:03 and Alexa slowly climbing up, up top. I think Raquel's been stepping it up these last few matches. Yeah. Ooh. Twisted Bliss and got the knees up.
Starting point is 00:33:18 Ooh. Raquel, fucking clotheslined. The Lexa, hello, Lord. I don't see why they don't put, like, maybe, it doesn't have to be, like, a world title, but, like, a United States,
Starting point is 00:33:36 their intercontinental title on Raquel? I think, I'm, I hope that she eventually gets her own singles belt. Yeah, or put a, put, what you might call it on her since they bought that, put a AAA belt on her. Yeah. Because she's supposed to be wrestling tomorrow, too. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:02 I mean, I think it's going to be an awesome PLE or whatever you want to call it. Mr. Iguana. Yeah. Yeska. El Yeska. When I was thinking, yeska, I just remember the license played on the van and Up and Smoke. You guys have seen that movie. All of these weed movies that were back in the day when it was illegal.
Starting point is 00:34:38 It's crazy now. I mean, you can go to, if you have dispensaries, wherever you live, you can go to the corner and buy an eighth, buy a few joints. Back in our day, we had to be sneaky about it. Buy it from some shady guy in the parking lot or the park. I got three dispensaries like 15, 20 minutes away. Yeah. got one. There's only one here in town.
Starting point is 00:35:04 And from what I hear, he's cleaning a house. Because he's the only one here. So he cornered the business. I say that the tribe here, I mean, they have a smoke shop, so they can slaying their cigarettes, but
Starting point is 00:35:18 if they opened the dispensary and then battle with that dude, oh man. I think the tribe would come out on top. But too many old people in there don't want to don't want change so I say it would put more money in their pockets but they don't want to listen ooh Raquel beating up a Alexa because Roxanne's huge man she's she's a big powerhouse
Starting point is 00:35:49 ooh shoulder check a lot Roxanne's coming in Alexa's all beat up I feel I just feel sorry when I mean I get it it's earlier in the in the night You just see all these people walking around in the background. I'm like, man. The crowd was kind of dead for this match. Yeah, I'm like, man, I don't know how much you guys paid to be on the floor. I'm going to sit there and watch every minute no matter how bad it is. Man, tickets are ready for, well, I don't think they went on sale yet for WrestleMania,
Starting point is 00:36:33 but everyone's complaining that these tickets, if last year's tickets were super expensive, they're just, they're saying, well, you know what you're going to spend now, wherever you sat. And, of course, you're going to be there again. Are you going to war games in San Diego? I want to. And you talk to my buddy and see if he wants to go. Because where is it going to be at?
Starting point is 00:37:02 Petco. The baseball field? Yeah. Oh, man. If I get a hotel. there it's gonna be a hell of expensive it's like Comic-Con Charlotte chopping everyone up ooh does a flip and clothes lines Raquel hell hard I'm more Raquel but I mean I'm down for the queen though chop Raquel right in her face you sing Raquel appreciate it that
Starting point is 00:37:33 Jessica you need to come down with the the eyeshadow It's a little too much. Ooh, super kick to Raquel. She goes down. Roxanne is still laying there beat up. But, ooh, disrespectful. The Queen stepped on both of them. Charlotte goes up top.
Starting point is 00:37:56 Still got the big old knee brace on. High risk. Ooh, moonsault lands and connects both of them. She goes in to cover of Roxanne, but Roxanne kicks out. Raquel took most of that Moonsol. Yeah, she did. Ah, good. I mean, I love when Charlotte does
Starting point is 00:38:18 these, especially when she does it off the top into the, onto the floor. Yeah. And everyone catches her. I like that. Uh-oh. Hooking in the figure four. Ah. Roxanne with the springboard Mood salt on the Charlotte.
Starting point is 00:38:40 So she goes down. And they're all beat up. So Lexa dead somewhere? Yeah, I don't know where. They don't, we're not seeing it. I never really notice it and people keep pointing it out. All the advertisements, the Xfinity and the Mike's Hard Lemonade and Papa Johns. Yeah, man, they must really be in debt to take all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Well, I think it's not dead. I think it's greed. Yeah, too. Because I know you heard about the new streaming deal coming in 2026. I'm not paying it. I was watching this one guy. He was saying if you already have the bundle with Disney Plus, Hulu, and ESPN, he said go to ESPN or whatever and log in with your Disney Plus and you'll be able to watch WW.
Starting point is 00:39:43 I mean, if that's the case, I'll do it, but I'm not paying $299 for an app that I'm only going to use once or twice a month. Yeah, so, I mean, I don't, I mean, I have ESPN, but I don't even watch anything on that. And it makes no sense because the company TKO also owns UFC. They just signed a new streaming deal with Paramount Plus, so all their pay-per-views will be on there at no extra cost. If you have Paramount Plus, you get all the UFC content and the pay-per-views. Wow. Yeah, I don't know what's happening. But I think it's just greed because now they're talking about Royal Rumble, Survivor Series,
Starting point is 00:40:31 is going to be two nights now. Survivor Series, all right. But Royal Rumble? We're going to have four Royal Rumbles? No, they're probably going to do... Women's one night, men's the next night. Nah. Just have a bunch of filler matches.
Starting point is 00:40:58 Did you think Charlotte was going to kick Alexa when she? I thought she was because that's kind of up Charlotte's alley. Yeah. But then I was thinking, no, she's not going to do it because they're just kind of throw away this whole. angle that they're working. Yeah. Charlotte pulled Alexa's hair.
Starting point is 00:41:24 Yeah. Raquel and Charlotte were going at it. Raquel jumped out of the way and Alexa just slapped Charlotte. Oh, man. Roxanne with the pop rocks. That was cool. Good shot, cameraman.
Starting point is 00:41:42 But then Alexa jumped and grabbed. Roxanne, she looked like she was and get rid of, she did. She kicked it, sister Abigail. But Charlotte was looking at her, like she was going to do something about Alexa, but she kind of jumped out of the way
Starting point is 00:41:58 and booted Raquel. And that's when Alexa went in for the pin. So they're the new women's tag team championship. I mean, I thought it was a good match. They went hard. I say it every time women go harder than the guys. They hung on this shot too long. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:18 You just see the top of Roxanne and Raquel's heads. Yeah. So they gave that one a B. I go B minus at the highest. I was about to say B plus. I mean, I liked it, so, but and they give it a B.
Starting point is 00:42:41 Okay, I'm all right with that. The next match, that is, was this a Karen? and Sammy. Yeah. Hashtag we want cross. I have no idea where they were going
Starting point is 00:43:01 with the buildup to this this whole trying to get Sammy to go to the dark side to admit that Karian's right and it just went nowhere. They got rid of them. It makes
Starting point is 00:43:17 no sense. The crowds behind him he's got one of the top selling merchandise in the company I think because he got himself over on his own yeah and you know they don't like that because I remember at WrestleMania he was going off
Starting point is 00:43:40 yeah I'm not even on the card and I live here you don't got to pay me to stay somewhere I mean I get it man I feel you but and I heard all those promo videos he was shooting
Starting point is 00:43:56 yeah he was paying for those by himself like no matter how good you are it's if they want to push you did you watch um was it unreal the
Starting point is 00:44:14 the little docu series I haven't watched it yet because I I'm gonna watch it but I just haven't because um I don't understand why everything needs to be revealed. They get everything. I mean, that was, because even some of the wrestlers were, I mean, I don't know about
Starting point is 00:44:37 WWE wrestlers, but they're like, why are they doing this? They're just kind of ruining it for everyone. Yeah, I seen Punk. I guess he was doing an interview and he was supposed to be promoting it, hyping it up and he was still calling against it because he was like this is against what I was brought up to believe and taught
Starting point is 00:45:00 I mean they're like you said greed they're doing everything and just taking that taking those checks so but it's out I watched the whole thing I thought it was cool but I was I agree
Starting point is 00:45:17 with the wrestlers saying they're showing way too much but because, I mean, that was one of the best things about wrestling is not knowing what's real and what's not. Yeah, because carrying cross, man, I mean, as mad as he gets, sometimes I think all those are connected unless he's that good
Starting point is 00:45:41 to where he can get that close to make it look like he's connecting. But yeah, this match, it just... I wasn't excited for it. I mean, I went to the bathroom, got up, got snacks, check my phone, and was looking up every now and then for this one. So. I just, I don't know. I just don't like how they did not use him.
Starting point is 00:46:13 They never used his wife other than being a ballet. Because I've seen her wrestle. She can go in the ring. Yeah, I mean, all the NXT stuff, she was wrestling. But then... She was wrestling NXT, T&A, she was wrestling men. Yeah, I don't know what they're doing here. I mean, I knew Sammy was going to win.
Starting point is 00:46:40 But I was just like, man, I mean, they're just slapping, carrying cross around. So I don't know. But I was listening to something. He was going off. Yeah, they released me. hit me up for bookings to get in my DMs and all that yeah what's her name said his bookings are going crazy
Starting point is 00:47:02 uh shotsy yeah man she was in the bay area but i was at comic con i was mad she's everywhere yeah her and um Zach writer uh Mac cordona yeah she took his internet title yeah
Starting point is 00:47:23 I was like, man, I could have been there. Union City isn't that far. I like what they're doing. Do you think Brother would get her back? I don't think she wants to. She's probably doing better now because she's, yeah, she's everywhere. Yeah, but I like what her and Cardona are doing, that whole angle. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:45 Where he ran over her arm with her tank. Because he was serving her paper. because she was calling herself to the death match queen or whatever and he was like, no, I'm the death match king. Yeah, I don't see Mac or Donna, Zach Ryder. He said, he's, he's been calling them.
Starting point is 00:48:08 But he says they don't, they keep saying they don't, they don't need him. I mean, they underused them. Yeah, they'll let him win the Intercontinental Championship title, but then they just, just got rid of it or took it from him and then got rid of him so yeah i also think that is because
Starting point is 00:48:31 he's another one that got himself over on his own and then i heard he if he was to come back he doesn't want to come back as a zach rider yeah but this match i mean scarlet this was a match you could see on monday night raw yeah i mean it was basically this is your last match make it count well he didn't know at the time and it was just like a slap in the face but I don't know
Starting point is 00:49:09 I mean we knew Sammy Zane was going to win but I was like just make it entertaining yeah it was it was just kind of boring on what was happening but I don't even remember how this match finished I just remember at one point
Starting point is 00:49:30 to Sammy Zane had a pipe. Oh, yeah. Scarlett gave him the pipe, and he just was supposed to be his turn to the dark side. Yeah. But he didn't. Because he was getting roughed up.
Starting point is 00:49:46 But then Zane starts to come back. Whoa. Slammed carrying into the corner, but he came down on his head. There comes the Huluva kick running. Ah!
Starting point is 00:49:58 Connect. Dush! And carrying. one, two, three, and that's it. I mean, I didn't. I didn't think this match was all that. And then they quickly cut to commercial so you don't hear everybody's
Starting point is 00:50:17 chanting for a cross. We just got Sammy Ding. Oh, man. Yeah, Scarlet, they just... Beautiful young woman. They just have her sitting around, really. But now they're both home. So we'll see.
Starting point is 00:50:40 It was a package deal. But yeah, this match, it was okay. CBS Sports gave it a B minus. This is a C at best. Yeah, I mean, this ain't no B. But that was that for that match. and yeah like I said I went to the bathroom got snacks checking my phone and I just would look up like I said this was a match you can find on Monday Night Raw which you know they're going to go to
Starting point is 00:51:18 commercial in the middle of the match yeah they did do a kind of a little tribute for Holcogen the first one they did was Smackdown right yeah no I think they didn't do one for him on raw until the next Monday. Yeah, right. Because he passed on Thursday, or that's when we all found out. And the Smackdown was the next day. So, what are you doing to Nicky? And they just brought her back and...
Starting point is 00:52:04 That, uh, live Morgan getting hurt. changed a lot of things. I don't know. We'll see. But Nikki says she's making one last run. She's not here to be a part-timer. I don't know. We'll see.
Starting point is 00:52:29 But I guess there was a thing about her sister was banned. Who's? Nicky's sister. Why? What'd she do? Because her husband works for AEW. but I guess they said they've taken the band away but I guess
Starting point is 00:52:49 that's why she hadn't been backstage or nothing I don't know we'll see but this match I was like I mean jade she is who she is it's no buildup to this one yeah it was kind of just throwing together really fast
Starting point is 00:53:14 and it was this was quick match too. I'm looking at the runtime. There was a little over seven minutes. Come on, Jade. Tiffany Strand, you're taking forever. Just get out here. Tipy
Starting point is 00:53:38 time. And I also want to point out that I thought the entrances from majority of SummerSlam were kind of weak. Yeah. And I didn't like the stage.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Unless they brought the stage back. Usually they're just on the flat ground coming out. I don't know. We'll see. And I don't like when they're, these baseball stadiums they're using. So,
Starting point is 00:54:10 I mean, this is a football. But baseball was a Survivor Series in San Diego? That's, yeah, Petco Hart. It's not enclosed. So we'll see.
Starting point is 00:54:26 But this, this match, I mean, it had its moments, but it was just kind of, meh. So, but what did you think of it? I wasn't, I didn't care for it. I agree with you. It had its moments. I do, I do see the potential in Jay, but I think it's just too fast too soon. Yeah. And I kind of felt like Tiffany wasn't even in this match at all.
Starting point is 00:54:54 she was just kind of coasting by yeah she was I don't know I mean Tiffany seems to be the heel but is Jay to heal or I don't know like I said there was no buildup yeah
Starting point is 00:55:15 I mean at least with the Charlotte match there was some drama some buildup to it but this one. I don't know. I just, I wasn't feeling it. I didn't like the way
Starting point is 00:55:34 Jade got into the title picture. I still would have liked my idea, like if she would have won tonight and then Naomi cashed in on her. Because that would have continued that
Starting point is 00:55:48 whole thing that they were building up to. Yeah. Oh, in that Unreal show. I didn't remember, I don't know, what PLE it was when Tiffany they messed her mouth was bleeding
Starting point is 00:56:05 and it looked like her teeth broke they did break because she was like no fine look at the picture they're not broken on Unreal when it happened she came backstage and they jumped up are you okay okay what happened and she goes my teeth
Starting point is 00:56:23 and then she showed them and they were broke so Unreal just made her look like a liar Yeah, so But I don't know I mean they only spoke to a handful of the Of the roster
Starting point is 00:56:37 They didn't speak to all the other guys They ain't doing nothing So what See I just don't feel no emotion In this match Nothing Yeah I mean this is Like you said
Starting point is 00:56:52 The Karen and what's her name Sammy could have been in Raw I could have seen this Being on Raw Or Smackdown as well yeah the main event on monday night raw because it wasn't it wasn't for a belt or anything
Starting point is 00:57:06 but this one yeah yeah it was oh that's right duh tiffany has the belt but it did but see that that says something right there it didn't feel like it yeah but i mean look at look at jade falling over trying to get a pin again falling over just don't don't try to keep her I mean
Starting point is 00:57:37 I mean you keep her in the in the WV in the roster but don't I don't know I was really shocked that Jade lost I thought she was going to win but
Starting point is 00:57:50 I don't know we'll see yeah because Tiffity she ended up pulling this one out that One spot when they were both in the corner, it was cool, but it seems like they were taken forever to set it. Oh, on the top road?
Starting point is 00:58:16 Yeah. So, I don't know. Tiffy ended up winning. She's still the champion. Yeah, I'm watching a spot right now. She's... Who was this money in the bank? Naomi.
Starting point is 00:58:39 Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah, they took their time getting up there making sure they both don't fall. Yeah. Boom, salt. One, two, three, who cares? Yeah, it was just like, nah.
Starting point is 00:59:00 I like Tiffy, but I think this title runs kind of is not, not working for me. What was the of Cardi B being there? that other dude. Drusky? Yeah. Trusky's hell of funny.
Starting point is 00:59:16 Is he a comedian or what is he? He's a comedian slash streamer, YouTuber or something like that. But he does like a lot of comedy skits. Okay. Because I see videos of him, but I didn't know who he was.
Starting point is 00:59:35 And Cardi she probably made a whole bunch of money just to fucking come out in the ring and scream on the mic for two seconds. I know. I'm like, if you're trying to save money, don't spend money on artists that don't need to be there.
Starting point is 00:59:51 But, hmm. She's not even from Jersey. Yeah. What's his name? Ice Cube son. Oh, shit. Oh, yeah. Have you been listening to his show?
Starting point is 01:00:06 I've seen some stuff on YouTube. He's a wrestling guy. He always shows up to. these things so yeah with his belt yeah jew mackintyre who was the last time he won anything uh that's a good question
Starting point is 01:00:27 do you think he was this match was beneath him uh yeah I mean uh I don't know where where he's at in his career I kind of felt like he should have he should have got something better at somerslam i mean when he came back that the push was like
Starting point is 01:00:56 24-7 and man there was plenty times in another PLs i thought he was going to win and be a champion of whatever but nope i don't know what they're doing you know you put him in the same class as him in l.a night i have no idea what they're doing wasted him two years in a row that money in the bank. That guy didn't even have a match at SummerSlam. Drew McIntyre, Logan Paul,
Starting point is 01:01:37 love him or hate him, taking on Tales of names. Jelly Roll. Yeah, jelly roll. Randy Orr. What did you think of this? I thought this was actually kind of a fun match.
Starting point is 01:02:03 Jellyroll, he ain't no bad bunny. But man, he's got my respect. Oh, yeah. That guy took some bumps in there. I respect the story that came into this of him moving to Florida just to be close to the performance center to train. Yeah, man, it was, we'll get to it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:31 But as far as jelly roll, I mean, I thought he did what he did in the ring. I thought it was okay. Yeah. Like I said, he ain't no bad bunny. No. But he's definitely not no Travis Scott. Oh. And he took some bumps, too, hard bumps.
Starting point is 01:02:50 Oh, that one on the announce table. Yeah. I thought he was dead or something ruptured. Even though you could see. right before he took that bump from Logan you could see him tense his body out and his head was popping up looking oh man I mean
Starting point is 01:03:10 Logan Paul and Randy Orton shout out to both of them they made jelly roll look good so I thought it was I thought it was good I mean will he come back in the ring
Starting point is 01:03:29 anytime soon? I don't know. Maybe. We'll see, but... I think they'll have him back. Yeah. I mean, now he knows what to expect. He's got to keep working with Randy. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:45 I mean, don't give him to someone, don't somebody else, but we'll see. But you know, it keeps working with Randy. You know, he's going to get RKO'd at one point. Yeah, he's going to think he's too bigger. He's too big. then Randy
Starting point is 01:04:01 he's gonna out of nowhere well Joe McIntyre just slapped Kelly roll in the back of the head these tattoos
Starting point is 01:04:13 on your face and all that get them if you want but I don't know what it is I don't like them what's that said on the back of his shirt
Starting point is 01:04:28 son of a sinner yeah is that a song of his I don't really know his music But I want to say I think that's an album Or maybe that's just what he goes by Because I
Starting point is 01:04:45 He heard his music like back in the day Because he used to be strictly hip hop And then he kind of transitioned over to country I mean jelly roll He hung in there Because he got beat beat the hell And they He kept going
Starting point is 01:05:07 I said he was like 400 something pounds. Yeah. Hell of it. Yeah, like 200 pounds. Yeah, man, good for him. If you guys are out there trying to do it too, man, just do it. I need to get back into what I was doing. But we'll see.
Starting point is 01:05:28 Yeah, what's his name is huge. Randy? What I'm saying? He's walking around at like close to 300 pounds. Damn. That's muscle. Yeah. Jelly roll, I thought, I don't know how hot it was there in Jersey, but he kept all of his gear on,
Starting point is 01:05:53 a t-shirt and his pullover shirt and his jeans. I don't know. He ain't comfortable yet. Probably gone no shirt. Logan Paul gets tagged back in. Uh-oh. Double-teamed. or jelly roll.
Starting point is 01:06:20 What kind of singer is he? Country. I want to try why I never heard of him. I think the only time I heard of him because of these events when they fan the crowd. I know he's, I guess he's pretty popular.
Starting point is 01:06:39 Well, the fuck you, Logan's started. But they, they bleep in them out. Did they have like little signs? Yeah. A little fucking Logan signs. Man. Yeah, jelly rolls is coming back to life.
Starting point is 01:07:08 Logan Paul grabbed the jelly, slabs them into the wall. I'm like, how hot are you? I'm sure you got T-shirt, undershirt, and this pullover that you're wearing. But I don't know. Logan just stomping them in the corner Let me fast forward Randy took down Drew McIntyre
Starting point is 01:07:44 And there comes jelly roll I liked Jelly rolls I forgot what I was going to say Fuck man It's late everyone Logan Paul He's serving up jelly roll
Starting point is 01:08:11 gave him a punch oh this is when he he goes over to the announce table starts clearing it off he seems like there's more shit on their table now than there used to be McIntyre springs back to life he's in the ring
Starting point is 01:08:33 and he gets back out Logan's over there in the hydration station corner power in still standing his prime drinks yeah look at jelly roll get positioned. I like that.
Starting point is 01:08:54 I mean, he was obviously, they told him what to do and he. He scooted himself off on a table. When I saw this video, I was like, how hell did Logan? I thought it was a, um,
Starting point is 01:09:11 uh, a little helicopter thing, drones. But then I realized it that, the camera was in his glasses. Yeah, he had, like, what do you call it, the meta glasses or whatever. But, yeah, when he dove on to jelly roll,
Starting point is 01:09:30 I thought that was it for him. I mean, he sold it to me on how hurt he was. He bounced off a jelly roll. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I liked how he said how he scooted up and got ready. kept popping his head up looking is he coming is he coming
Starting point is 01:09:54 Logan ball I legit thought that was it for jelly roll Michael Cole Pat and Logan on the head I think he just I think he just handed him his class as he had on
Starting point is 01:10:17 so they go into start working and Randy Orton. Logan Paul comes back to life out of all the rubble. Oh, what's his name?
Starting point is 01:10:39 He's got his doctors. Fuck. See, it's late, everyone. Jellyroll, man. He... Good actor. Because he sold it.
Starting point is 01:11:05 Because when they were carrying him out, I mean, he kept pause. and drop into a knee. And when he went past his wife, he was like, I can't finish. When they first picked him up, he was talking to Fat Joe over there.
Starting point is 01:11:18 Yeah. It's like, I'm done, I'm done, Joe. I'm done. I saw an interview with Fat Joe after the SummerSlam. He said they got him. He was like, I thought Jelly was done. I did too. I thought he was like, hell of hurt.
Starting point is 01:11:38 Because he was like barely walking. but then yeah he gets to his wife I can't finish and I was like fuck man I mean I'll give it to him he got in the ring and he did it
Starting point is 01:11:52 I don't know he collapsed yeah he's walking along tattoos get him where you want but I don't like the face once this is when he does the Mick Fully
Starting point is 01:12:13 I think that would have been better if they had him on a stretcher and then he got off and jumped back in the ring. Randy's still doing his best. He's starting to drop bombs on McIntyre and Logan's just standing there
Starting point is 01:12:37 because yeah, they're not even showing Jelly Rule. But his wife, yeah, she was right there in the front. Turn to face the ring. Yeah. Telling everybody let him go. He was like, fuck it. He was selling it to me because he starts walking back and then he collapses for a second.
Starting point is 01:13:11 Just spitting everywhere. Yeah. I think he was pulling up his knee pads. This has been a perfect moment. He just ripped off to pull over. Randy's crawling over there. It's a jelly for the tag. There comes jelly roll.
Starting point is 01:13:32 This is when I was like, man, he got all of us. because he sprung back into action and he was kicking ass. Close line of Logan. Is he going for the chokeslam? Talking big shit to Logan before he does it. Yeah. Yeah. Thanks for jumping.
Starting point is 01:13:56 Oh, black hole slammed to Drew. Yep. That's why I was like, he got my respect. He got in there and did it. and I mean I respect him for for losing all that weight too but I'm sure I could look that way too if I had his money
Starting point is 01:14:18 oh yeah that big snot coming out of his nose yeah I'm glad he realized yeah wiped it off he should have left it all and kept wrestling power slam to Logan
Starting point is 01:14:32 weird cover there she only was pinning Logan Drew sprung back into action. Oh, RKO from out of nowhere to McIntyre. Uh-oh. Orton gets hurt. Jelly rolls laying there.
Starting point is 01:15:01 Here, let me set up again to make sure you don't get hurt. Ah, a splash from Logan. One, two, three. I think by this point, um, Jelly couldn't go, couldn't go on. Is that a tattoo on Logan's neck? I thought it was a piece of confetti or something.
Starting point is 01:15:27 Oh, okay. I was like, what the fuck is that? Man. Drew making a referee, do the proper. This was a fun match, though. Yeah, it was. It wasn't bad. What did they grade it? they gave it a a C
Starting point is 01:16:09 I don't know it more a B I wouldn't I'll give it A to jelly roll for getting in there and doing it so good for him let me see the next one
Starting point is 01:16:35 seeing punk taking on the what are they calling the ring the ring general yeah and punk with
Starting point is 01:16:52 his fantastic four four. Yeah, I noticed that. I still want one of those Seina shirts. It was a green one. Not the blue
Starting point is 01:17:07 or all the other crazy colors he had. The last time is now. I was excited for this. Of course, Ian Punk. I'm going to love him no matter what. But do you think Gunther should have
Starting point is 01:17:40 should have won and kept the belt no I think it went the way it should have went I think this was a classic old school wrestling match that's what it was
Starting point is 01:17:53 and I think it told a good story throughout the match it was back and forth it was hard hitting and I think the right person won until what did you think of the buildup for this match.
Starting point is 01:18:19 Again, not a lot of build-up to this. I thought there could have been a little bit more. It kind of seemed like punk just all of a sudden became number one contender. In that unreal thing, he was talking about, he hasn't, since he's been back, he hasn't won a title or anything. and he was always crying around about never main eventing WrestleMania and all this
Starting point is 01:19:03 I mean I get it I mean they finally did push him to this point for those you that already seen this and you know the outcome fuck I was mad it like ruined my night because this is for the heavyweight belt
Starting point is 01:19:30 the ring general punk was getting his ass beat the whole match so I was like okay if he's taking this much punishment something big is going to happen at the end he's going to turn it around and win
Starting point is 01:19:55 and that's exactly what happened I completely forgot about Seth so oh my God I mean they did a good job on selling the injury do you think he really got hurt
Starting point is 01:20:15 because everyone was saying that he didn't because punk was even talking shit yeah I guess they only a few people knew it wasn't real and
Starting point is 01:20:28 his wife Becky was in on it because she was like posting like social media stuff like videos like oh look at my husband play with his daughter while he's on crutches and because you see that reaction video when he came out
Starting point is 01:20:44 yeah Becky she was like talking about how we fooled you shout to the guy of the sign I'm straight edge because what I say because it's got the Pepsi symbol in
Starting point is 01:21:02 I think that's the Nexus in Oh yeah O's the book But yeah This was like I was saying before This is just This is the old school
Starting point is 01:21:19 Rough and tough match Like you know Working the body part slowing down the pace Yeah Because this one Kind of took a minute Because what
Starting point is 01:21:34 what are we at? We still like little over a half hour left because I was like man this is I when it started I checked the time and I was like damn this isn't going to go on for a while
Starting point is 01:21:52 and it did go on for a while because punk was getting his ass beat someone was talking about this on TikTok going oh man that was so much punishment that Gunther gave CM Punk I don't think we've ever seen Punk take this much punishment
Starting point is 01:22:09 then they throw in the the, was it UFC? They've been tacked on the UFC fight. His last one, I was like, oh man, I mean, I love seeing him punk.
Starting point is 01:22:25 He's my son, Kyle's favorite wrestler. I felt bad. I went to the casino and watched his first fight. fight. I had my Siam punk shirt on and I was ready and he just
Starting point is 01:22:41 got beat up. That second one, I ended up watching that at home and I'm glad I did. I almost went to the casino, but that was at least he got some punches off on that second one. Yeah. And he got in there
Starting point is 01:22:59 and did it. I wouldn't do that. I mean, I'm just someone talking. shit. But I felt bad for him, man. I was like, man. Because at that point, he was basically, he must, he should have just grabbed his hand. I don't remember who was fighting. He could have just grabbed punk's hands and started slapping him with it. Stop, stop hitting yourself. I was, I felt that bad for him. But again, he did it. And I understand why people were mad that. Oh, it's just because of who he is.
Starting point is 01:23:32 that uh exactly why he was in the ufc yeah i mean there's some guys i've been training my whole life and had like a thousand fights and i'm not in the ufc yet it's called business yep he brought in a whole new demographic in there he brought me to watch him to go down to the casino and watch it i mean i watch ufc just clips I don't think I've ever sat and watched a whole I mean it wasn't the whole reason but it was part of the reason why they brought Brock Lesnar into the UFC
Starting point is 01:24:11 Yeah A Brock Lesnar can kick ass Yeah Who's he Who's he gonna fight Um Oh no no I'm jumping the gun
Starting point is 01:24:30 That's tomorrow night or the next night when he came out. People were mad about that one. I still were getting ahead of ourselves, but I did think I thought he was done. Like he couldn't come back because of... They said his name's clear.
Starting point is 01:24:55 That's all I know. Yeah. I don't think they would bring him back if legally it was not a problem. I don't know if he did anything. But I don't know. Those text messages just say it's a different story. So I don't know.
Starting point is 01:25:20 I mean, I wasn't there. But I was kind of like, I mean, I was shocked. And I was a little excited. But, uh, yeah,
Starting point is 01:25:32 I was going to, I agree with you. That was the last person. I expected to part come out there. Yeah. I mean, I knew. someone was going to come out. I figured the final boss music was
Starting point is 01:25:43 going to hit and we're going to get Rock Sina 3. It got a huge pop. Everybody was about it. I mean, that would have made more sense. The rock came out and told John, I still own your soul. Then John hits him with the AA. I have a feeling that's, that's not. not over it. That's got to come, come back. Because
Starting point is 01:26:15 why did John do this? And, I know we're not talking about tomorrow night, but I just I was confused that the character change in one night. Yeah. In a way, I was happy. But I was like, wait. Yeah, when it just said John is seen it in black and white,
Starting point is 01:26:42 and then the whole screen lit up. Yeah. I was like, oh shit, he is back. He came running out like he usually did. So I don't know what happened, everyone. Well, we'll see. From what we know, he's only got four, well, maybe less than four months now in his contract.
Starting point is 01:27:00 Yeah, I think the last match is December 26, 27th. At what? Right now, it's a Saturday Night Main Event, which a lot of people are not happy about. Yeah, I don't know. If it is, make it a long match. Don't be like five minutes. But you know they're going to be cutting the commercial like every 10 minutes.
Starting point is 01:27:33 Yeah. I don't know. We'll see. I mean, we have enough commercials. Hopefully they don't do them like Goldberg and cut them off during his speech. Oh. yeah that was for time but
Starting point is 01:27:50 I don't know whoever filmed it and then threw it on Twitter is the only reason it's how I got to see the whole thing the ring general man he's beating punk down yeah I'm at the part
Starting point is 01:28:07 where everybody said punk tapped where he had him in a sharpshooter and he was doing the tapping motion with his hand but his hand never hit the mat what uh time is it it was go to 248
Starting point is 01:28:33 okay I'm at 241 was everybody was like he fucking tapped he tapped he tapped he's got him in that punk is reaching for the rope he grabbed a hole the gunther's leg now he gets gunter to the ground
Starting point is 01:29:06 well punk's flipping him over yep he got him the gunther's struggling when you're close enough to the rope grab it
Starting point is 01:29:29 well grabs the rope punk was like he was gassed unless it was just part of the show oh no he was gassed yeah damn I thought
Starting point is 01:29:47 somebody's windows open because my door is still banging well windy where I'm at. Hold on. Well, something's happening outside. I hear people yelling. Res love, boys and girls.
Starting point is 01:30:10 For those of you that know what that means. Yeah, because punk, man, he was just huffing and puffing. I mean, Gunther looked tired, too, but he's younger and he's got a little more wind in his sale. Yeah. Punk's not a young man. Uh-uh. cut there was talking a shit pug's face down and he's
Starting point is 01:30:40 pointing out going best of the world gunther's talking shit and the ref had to jump in check on him that little buff tan guy chopin's punk did you hear Brett Brett Hart's comments about
Starting point is 01:31:05 Gunther uh-uh he said he's a nice guy and everything, but he doesn't like him as a wrestler. He doesn't like people that try to hurt each other on purpose.
Starting point is 01:31:20 And I guess he was talking about the chops. Brett's old school. I mean, you watch the evolution of wrestling. I mean, not the show, but from when wrestling began, I mean, back in the black and white days, up to now, I mean, they weren't doing
Starting point is 01:31:45 any. of this. There was no high flyers or anything. Yeah. It was just big brutes throwing each other around. We still got big brutes, but.
Starting point is 01:31:56 Yeah, Brett, Brett was on one the past week. Yeah, there's a little Hulk Hogan comments. Yeah. Comments about Gunther.
Starting point is 01:32:09 Well, I hope it anytime soon, but I'm sure when it's Brett's time. Everyone's going to be talking shit. They don't do that to all the wrestlers.
Starting point is 01:32:24 I mean, we've lost a lot of them, but I don't know. We'll see. Because yeah, punk would spring back into action for a second and then it ended up falling down again and just lay there.
Starting point is 01:32:40 Huffing and puffing. They took like 67 chops. Not just to the chest, to the back. There was that one where he hopped up on the top rope and Gunter like chopped him in his ass or something. Yeah. He fell down. Give him the running knee and then a bulldog.
Starting point is 01:33:03 Shubbed his dick in his face. The camera just quickly changed. What's up with Tony Storm? But taking a bite. Hey, do what you got to do. Yeah. Do what you got to do to win. Lie, cheat, and steal.
Starting point is 01:33:28 If Eddie was still alive, do you think he'd still be wrestling? Absolutely. Oh, yeah. I don't know, man. Every time I see clips of Eddie or just whatever someone's talking about him, I just get all sad. I'm like, oh. Definitely would be involved in the storyline with Dirty Down. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:33:51 And his dad probably come in and save him. he just slam punk hell hard he climbs up on the top comes down for a splash it was all sloppy but funk kicked out yeah gunther's his splash was
Starting point is 01:34:11 sloppy well he landed good he landed on his knees and everything that can't be too good well none of this can be too good for your body for as beat up as these guys get punk is still laying there Gunther's talking shit.
Starting point is 01:34:37 Oh, kicked him in the back of... Are they ever gonna bring that heels show back? I don't think so. I ain't heard nothing about it. Uh, that punk got clothes lying hella hard. Now he's sitting on the bottom robe, Gunther. Still talking shit. He was just going off.
Starting point is 01:35:16 Shit, there's still... Almost 20 minutes left. I'm gonna fast forward. Yeah, because... folks just get beat up got their clothes line okay Gunther's busted open
Starting point is 01:35:32 not busted open what uh what's the mark 301 all right well you got busted for head face head first on the table
Starting point is 01:35:51 hit the phone yeah they kind of messed up here because the blood was coming from top of his head, but it was supposed to be coming from his nose. Yeah, when he came out from under the table, man, he bladed himself or something.
Starting point is 01:36:15 Because you can see when he goes into the ring, like he keeps holding his nose, like it's supposed to be his nose. Yeah, I mean, you got blood above your head. Because I guess the reason why he's been off TV because he's having surgery on his nose, so I guess they try to use that. but I don't know why he came out under the table bleed from top of his head he got blood in his eyes punks
Starting point is 01:36:43 slowly getting his feet dragging ass in the ring like get a towel and wipe all that blood out of your eyes and punk starts to strike boom boom dropping some some lefts and rights oh
Starting point is 01:37:06 running knee close line punk up to the top here let me roll and get into positions you know punk can't make that yeah he was laying pretty far
Starting point is 01:37:23 punk's all juiced up Gunther's getting up go to sleep keeps holding his nose yeah punk's all tired gets up Gunther ah gutther gets him in headlock sleeper holds
Starting point is 01:37:40 got to can I see with all that blood in his eye yeah punk is back on his feet oh pick up Guntor GTS
Starting point is 01:38:02 DZZ connect doesn't go down he's just stunned and fuck hell tired standing there goes for another GTS
Starting point is 01:38:15 connect again to the jaw Guthar goes down One, two, three I was happy. I was like, ah, yeah. Punk's a new WWE heavyweight champion.
Starting point is 01:38:36 I was excited. I was ready to start crying. Seth Rohn's music hit. Oh, man, I went ah. And they could have sold the fake out a little better. because he does that thing where he comes out
Starting point is 01:38:59 and he shows him the briefcase and then he turns to walk away yeah but I was like why is Paul Heyman not going was punk you think punk was really on the verge of crying yeah
Starting point is 01:39:18 I mean I want to know how he felt when they tell you yeah you're going to win the belt but then you can lose it a few seconds later oh man they could at least let him have this and then maybe
Starting point is 01:39:38 took it at raw or something but I mean you know what comes around goes around you know he did he did this to Drew yeah I mean he was hyped
Starting point is 01:39:51 he was doing his thing everyone was excited got to get that get that big screen in the background so as soon as he held up the belt turn it down
Starting point is 01:40:05 burn it down and everyone just ah and here he comes crutching out uh that is where I knew he was fine
Starting point is 01:40:17 he ain't gonna come out on crutches I was just like uh take me back to WrestleMania uh what was that
Starting point is 01:40:30 30 31, I think. The heist of the century. That big ass Santa Clara 49 in the stadium. See, they could have sold it better because Paul should have walked back with him. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:40:53 Instead of just standing there with that smile on his face. Not even walking right with those crutches. I knew this was it. I was like, ha, ha, ha. threw the crutches away. See, Paul Heyman kind of gets out the way. Yeah. Seth turns around.
Starting point is 01:41:18 Starts taking off the knee brace. Oh, I was like, all right, he was full of shit then. Seth comes. Yeah, he starts running down the rim. I mean, I'll give it to him at WrestleMania. when he came tearing down the ramp grabbing Jessica throws in the man. It can't be grabbing Jessica like that.
Starting point is 01:41:46 Uh-uh. Punk had him up for a second, but Rollins fought out of it. He clocks him with this briefcase. Yeah. Right here. Bang. Oh, there you do.
Starting point is 01:41:58 Bang. Of course, he got to connect to the back. But yeah, that shot. Man, he connected. That was personal. Jessica. Oh, punk laying there.
Starting point is 01:42:16 Ring that bell. Oh, there comes Seth Rallens. He runs up. Curbstomp. Ah, it's a punk. One, two, three. And Seth Rounds is the
Starting point is 01:42:34 world heavyweight champion. I was so mad I just shut it off I knew nothing else was gonna happen You didn't wait for his crew to get out there to celebrate? No Which I guess they're officially called the vision
Starting point is 01:42:56 Ah What's Paul he even doing? He's the Oracle Oh Oh fuck I mean I was so mad I was like damn you if I was there
Starting point is 01:43:18 I'd have been going off I'd have been screaming fuck you I was like screaming when I was at WrestleMania I had my middle finger both middle fingers in there
Starting point is 01:43:31 I was like fuck you sad I was so mad I would have the same thing here if I was here Punk's land to just beat the hell bronze knee is all bandaged up hey bronson ain't got the shoe la father
Starting point is 01:43:54 he left it oh man oh that was night one yeah and I was not happy with the outcome I was so fucking mad but I was I was right there with you man
Starting point is 01:44:12 I totally forgot about Seth Rollins I mean we even talked about it on this show how he could possibly be faking the injury and cashing it in. But when this night came, like not even on my mind. And then that music hit.
Starting point is 01:44:32 And I was like, oh, shit. CBS Sports gave the punk and gunther fight an A. Yeah, I give it an A. Yeah. But they didn't give it a grade for when Seth cashes in. I say it was probably mad too.
Starting point is 01:44:52 they sit down Indian style air quotes I thought for a second I thought he was going to take Punk's boots Braun couldn't sit down his knee hurts
Starting point is 01:45:11 yeah that was night one um the carrion and uh Sammy Zane that was probably the the weakest match of the night
Starting point is 01:45:25 Yeah, Sammy Zane, Carrey in and Tiffany Stratton, Jay Cargill, is my weakest. Yeah. Man, but again, I mean, it did his point. It got his point across. We watched it. Like I said, I was mad. So somebody was doing their job. But I was like, let him hold on to it for a month and then take it.
Starting point is 01:45:53 But I guess it's moving the story along. So we'll see. I want to see Seampunk take it from Seth. But if he does, I don't think it'll be this year. Matt could be wrong. It might, but. I think WrestleMania. Yeah, I'm picturing something big.
Starting point is 01:46:20 But we'll see. But yeah, everyone, that was night one, a Summer Slam. We'll be back soon with the next one. But, ah, Seth Ron, it's damn you.
Starting point is 01:46:36 How about how about how else I just start crying for punk? Because I saw the videos afterwards when he finally got up and got out of there. But, I don't know. We'll see what happens.
