Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, welcome to another episode of the wrestling returns.
Welcome back, everybody.
The hiatus is done.
The wait is over.
We are finally back.
I'm your host, Brian.
With me as always is my brother Nez.
What's up, man?
Oh, man.
Sorry, everyone.
We missed the past three, two or three pay-per-views.
Yeah, and I just found out they're not called pay-per-views no more.
They're called premium live events.
Well, other than they moved them all the Saturday.
But, um, all right.
But, uh, but I do want to talk about, um,
crown jewel, the, the, the main event,
Roman reigns and, um,
the Logan Paul?
Yep.
Well, both of them were in it.
That was the highlight of the evening.
And I'll give it to Logan Paul,
especially for that little selfie video he made when he dove off the top corner rope.
Yeah, that was badass.
It landed on Roman Raines on the table, announced table.
That was a hell of badass.
Because you can clearly see when they were both laying there, Roman, like, checked on him, like, tapped on him.
Like, you all right?
He was kind of like, yeah.
But that match, man, they went hell of hard.
And I was like, I was there.
And I wasn't there.
But I was like, I was in the moment.
And I was like, fuck, yeah.
this is awesome.
And then we get war games.
I didn't watch the NXT war games one yet.
I want to watch that one.
That one's always the better.
This is the first time they've done this, right?
WWE.
Yeah, with the main roster.
It's usually NXC war games.
Yeah, it was originally a WCW thing,
and I don't think they ever did it.
I think, yeah, you're right.
I think this is the first time
WWEs actually did it
themselves outside of
NXT.
But it
started off with a bang
and then it kind of
started to fizzle out
with some of the matches.
I was kind of like, really?
But
it's wrestling.
What can you do?
But,
AEW,
it pugs out, right?
From everything
I hear
yeah
but then there is
the new rumor
that it might
all be at work
because I don't know
if you saw the last
dynamite
where
not the last
dynamite
was a dime
I think it was
last dynamite
when
the elite
and death
triangle
on hand
had their second
match
trios match
yeah
and the elite
were trawling
punk
like canny
Omega was doing
to go to sleep sign and he did his finisher and
he bit somebody because you know allegedly
punk's see him punk's boy bit bit one of them and then
one of the bucks did the the you know when punk fucked up on that
shooting star lariat you know where you flip over yeah one of them did that
and fucked up on purpose so the people are saying
it's it's it's a work now because
if they're trying to buy him out,
then why would you go and kind of antagonize the situation?
Who knows?
Maybe they all just kind of sat down and apologized
and let's just go forward.
But I mean,
but that after that paper review when punk went off,
I mean,
that all seemed,
if it was a work,
he's one of the best actors in wrestling.
Because he was like dead serious when he was,
saying all that stuff but I don't know we'll see well he was eating muffins or cupcakes
whatever the hell he was eating he was plugging that place too and drink whatever that water
he was drinking too yeah he made sure the label was out yeah the one thing I didn't like was the
same people that were chan see him punk or like we're like the same people saying fuck
see him punk yeah I you know we don't
really know what happened.
So we can't just
automatically assume one side is right
and the other's wrong.
If it is, if it is
a work, man, they
did a good job because they got
everybody talking. It was all over
sports radio
and TV and
online stuff. Everybody
and the mother was talking about it.
But we'll see. Maybe it was just
something to get
out there. Did they really need to do it? No.
because I think AEW is just kicking ass,
but I don't know, we'll see how it goes.
But, uh,
WWE Survivor Series, war games.
Um,
I don't know if there was a kickoff match.
If there was,
I didn't see it.
I don't think they've been doing it anymore.
They do.
I watched some of the kickoff.
I didn't see any matches.
Okay.
Did you watch this live?
I watched it like the later that night.
I caught it live.
All right.
But this one I was really excited for.
I kind of wished it would have closed the whole thing out.
But Roman and the bloodline and everybody in the mom has to be in that one.
But this was the women's award games.
Team Bel Air, Bianca Bel Air, the man, Becky Lynch, Alexa Bliss, Oscar, and Mea.
Really quick.
I am glad that Mia YM is back.
I thought they kind of did her dirty,
especially when they made her put that mask on and become...
What was she?
Some random character from the Mad Max movie.
I don't know.
Yeah, I was like, come on.
She's a beautiful young woman.
Keith Lee is wrecking it.
And, yeah, but I was happy she came back.
And they just looked like the crowd,
to where it was pretty hyped.
Speaking of crowds, going back to Crown Jewel,
they were hell hyped, all of them.
And I always said this,
every time we talk about when they have pay-per-views over there
or premium event,
whatever fuck you guys want to call it.
But everyone was hyped.
When they pulled the camera back,
I noticed that the royalty was sitting on the other side.
On the camera side,
that we couldn't see.
There was a couple that was in the camera,
angle but I think they wanted that
everybody hyped
right on that side and
everybody was so I love it when they
when they do that. Yeah, let the real
fans be up front, let the kids
be up front, you know, people that are going to
get really excited for it.
Yeah, because again, they
really, they probably have their
stuff that goes on there
but when the superstars show up
I mean, everyone, they want to be front
row screaming, hooting, and hollering
for whoever their favorite superstar is.
but all right but yeah team belair bea yonka biller the man becky linds alexa bliss oscar and my i am taking on team
damage control uh bailey yes uh dakota kai yes i oh sky a k a eosurai niki cross which i like
i liked at a niki as h i thought it was a cool little gimmick and i love their mask and
cape and everything, but
this was the nicky cross that I liked
when she was wild and just
didn't care and
she's beautiful,
beautiful young woman, but I like her
like her like this when her's all crazy
and just everything because she's really short
so. Yeah, she was all into
this, just back to this old character
because she's playing with her
hair, she's sitting off in the corner
and not paying attention to anything and
just being crazy. I love it.
Yeah.
and my girl the beautiful Rio Ripley
oh so fine
and the black eyeliner and a black lipstick
and all the tattoos
and yes I'm there
but these gals
brought the house down
just to kick off the show and I was like
it can't go for me
my opinion I think I figured it's going to go down from here
because these ladies
went for it
And shout out to Nikki Cross, E.O. Sky and Becky Lynch for diving off the top of the cage.
I mean, if you guys, I'm sure you're familiar with the war games with the two rings, basically butted up against one or another.
I like that. I was hoping later in the later matches that it would have spilled over into another ring just for the hell of it, but it never did.
Yeah, it was like the other ring wasn't there for the other matches.
Yeah, it was like they used the ones that was right in front of the announced tables for one match, and then they used the other one.
So it was kind of a back and forth deal.
But other than these gals, all 10 just being the hell out of each other, I mean, I thought this match was awesome.
And they just went super duper hard.
What did you think of this one?
I thought this was the best match of the night.
they went super hard
like we talked about
Nikki Cross
I love her energy that she brings
Rea Ripley's badass
Eo Sky was doing her thing
She did have a couple
Fuckups there
I think she was just a little too anxious
Moving a little too fast
A little disappointed
in Alexa Bliss
It was just like she was just there
to fill out the team.
She didn't really do anything.
And there was supposed to be this,
this whole, her and Nikki Cross
were former teammates and best friends.
And they didn't really go at each other that much.
And they had that weak-ass spot with the handcuffs.
That clearly the handcuffs were too big for Nikki,
or Alexa Bliss's hand.
You could see.
Yeah, you could clearly say she could have just pulled her hand right out of it.
Yeah, that went nowhere.
But I think Nikki didn't need to prove herself other than when she, well, it starts off.
There's 10 gals.
They throw four from each team in these two little cages.
And then they sent in the first two women to start off the match.
Bianca Belair and the Eos guy.
Is that the one?
Yeah.
No, no way.
It was a Dakota Kai.
Yeah, Dakota Kai.
They're the ones that kicked it off.
And they were the first, it was like five minutes for the first two,
and then I went to like three and four and shit like that for the rest.
But it seemed like that five-minute match before the next person came in,
they went on forever, but they were beating the hell out of each other.
So I just loved that.
I'm still waiting for someone to cut off beyond.
Bianca Bellar's ponytail, her big braid, but that never happens.
Yeah.
But once they started going at it and then I think I know Sky came in next and they were,
they were double teaming Bianca Belair and then it would just kind of went from there.
Yeah, you're right.
When Alexa Bliss came in, she just came in and didn't, I mean, she did what she does,
but it was nothing spectacular.
She was kind of just looking pretty.
Yeah.
Give me the crazy one again.
I want that.
And that's what I was confused about,
because the buildup to this match,
whenever they had,
like,
interviews or even a couple times
when Alexa Bliss would come to the ring,
Bray Wyatt's a little Firefly logo
would, like, flash on the screen,
and she would get, like, distracted.
And that played nothing into this match at all.
No, it just didn't do anything.
I mean, I was hoping.
something big. I think at some point she's just going to flip out and go back to that character, which I hope so, because my fingers are crossed.
Should have been this match.
Yeah, they didn't.
But once everyone got in, I mean, Oscar, I loved when her and Eoskai were going at it.
Because, I mean, I just love when they just hype them up.
former best friends in Japan and
now they're going head on one on one
I was like okay we already know all this
just let them beat the shit out of each other
Oscar messed up a few times too
it was mainly when they were trying to do
stuff off the ropes
they kept getting their footing would slip
but not to say what they were doing was bad
it was just you're excited and you're trying to keep this
the match going and really excited
so that's why everyone was just kind of
slowly slipping but
man Oscar man
I love Eoskei
don't get me wrong but I think Oscar is still
the best out of the
two or what's her name too
what's a little pirate gal um
oh um
carrie sang yeah
I like her too
but then Bianca biller man she was no joke
because when she picked up
Dakota Kai and just
body pressed her and then slammed her
into the fence
I think she just managed to hit just a fence,
but she threw her right into the pole.
I don't know if that was intentional,
but Dakota got laid there for a minute after that one.
But when Nikki Cross came in,
she came running in and immediately went under the ring
and just started throwing everything in there.
Candle sticks, garbage canned lids,
whatever she can get her hands on.
I mean, she was even ready to go at the, uh, the, the, the, the ref that was on the outside.
But I, I just, I just love when, when she, she's doing what she's doing.
Because usually when the ASH, uh, almost superhero, when she just come in and smile and be happy and everything, which was cool.
I, I did like that.
But when she's all nuts and wild and crazy, that's when, for me, other than she's just a little cutie and she's hot when she's like that.
But, yeah, for a while, she would ruff fools, rough gals up.
But then she would just sit there and smile and look all crazy.
And then she climbed to the top of the cage.
And she just sat there for a minute, waiting for everyone to get in place.
And then she just cross-bodied everyone and dove off.
I was like, yeah, I was, I was hyped that she did that.
Because I was thinking before the actual match started, I was thinking,
one of these gals is going to go flying off the top of the cage.
the surprise that we got three
Becky just kind of just
butt first off
and Dakota Kai took all that
yeah she did
she like totally missed
the EL Sky
but when Eoskeye did it
she was hardcore
she climbed up to the
onto the top and moot salted off
and I can't remember who she landed on
but she took out
she took out two of them
Luckily, they caught her before they all fell.
And I don't know how high that cage is.
And Eoska isn't that tall of a woman, but she just said, fuck it, just flipped.
I was like, oh.
Hey, yeah, and then once Ria came in, Ria was the last one to come in.
And that's when she just came, she went straight in and started beating the hell out of everybody.
Because at one point, Ria was the only one standing.
And all the ladies were all laying there all beat to hell.
So, but who did she slam into the, because when Bailey came in, she started throwing in ladders.
So.
And there was, there was a ladder kind of set up.
And was it me, him?
I think I want to say, yeah.
Because they were supposed to, I think that buildup was kind of weak because they were supposed to, because, you know,
Ria's.
judgment day and
Mia came in to help the
OC so they're supposed to have their little
back and forth going on
which they didn't really play that
story out because they didn't really go at each
other that much but I think I think she's
the one that put her through
the ladder
when Nikki
first came in she had that
a little jacket or whatever
whatever she was wearing
I was thinking do you better take that all
I was just going to get in the way but she
she put it to work.
She started whipping all the gals with it.
Usually there's
refs in the ring.
I think the only one that was in the ring with them
was a cameraman.
And they bumped into him a few times.
He kept trying to get out of the way.
But I mean, he was only limited
because he was in that little center,
a little aisle in between the rings.
So I thought that was cool.
Because yeah, some of those gals,
when they got too close to him,
they slammed into him.
Yeah, because when Bailey came in,
she threw in the,
the ladders and everything who threw in the tables was that Becky?
Uh,
let me see.
I think it was Becky.
Because he had cute.
He came with the,
with the candor sticks.
Uh,
I think when Mia came in,
it was,
I think the chairs and the trash can lids.
So I think,
I think Becky was the table.
Uh,
I think
Ria came in with tables because I'm watching it now.
Becky just ran and just went straight in.
I don't like her
ringwear she's wearing now.
She should go back to how. Stupid shit on her
shoulder. Yeah, I think it would just get
in the way, if anything, or
someone tear it off. Yeah, because
her attitude's back to being
the man, but the way she dresses
is still that
big time Beck's bullshit.
I like all that.
I think that out of all the stuff that they threw
into the ring. I think this stuff that got the most
use were the garbage can lids.
But you can clearly
see they took off the handles
because they were just slam at each
other. Me and M.
She's slam. I can't remember who she slammed on one of
the garbage cans and it looked like one of
them caught a corner.
I can't remember who it was, but I remember
when she picked her up and slammed her down. I was like
damn, I'm like, especially
these garbage cans because when somebody
lands on them, it folds and then
there's a sharp-ass point.
But I don't know.
They just try to be as careful as they can.
What's your name is the one that came in with the tables when Rea Ripley came in.
But I assume we're going to get another match with Becky and Bailey since Bailey's been back.
And they used to be friends and this and that.
I'm like, cool.
I can get some of my nerves.
Yeah.
we're recording this on a Monday
I caught a little bit of raw
so just say yeah
you're right we're gonna continue
with that feud
yeah I want
I want Ria to get the
the belt again I mean
beat the hell out of Becky
beat the hell out of Bailey
but yeah
because when Ria came in she just
was just started fucking everyone
she went straight after Becky Lynch
and was just throwing her all over the
place.
But then Bailey
kept interfering.
Bailey wasn't
doing much,
man,
because every time
she tried to
attack Becky,
she would just
get just beat up
and then fall.
So,
but yeah,
when,
when they,
we have,
because when they set up
the tables,
I was waiting
for someone to
use it,
but then that's
when they put
Dakota Kai and
El Skye on the
table and Becky
climbed up the top.
Again,
I don't know how high
that is,
but to come down
on your tailbone,
I mean,
Yeah, she Dakota, Dakota Kai took most of the impact.
I was like, man, I probably broke ribs or broke something.
She probably had a fucking couldn't get up the next day.
But that was cool.
I liked how when Becky just, she didn't jump.
She kind of like just stepped off and landed on it.
But I always try to watch.
Obviously, they're not going to show, but when Oscar does the blue mist or whatever,
I think it's blue now. It was green before.
But I was
looking when I was watching
I was going to see
where she gets this before she
someone must hand her something
so she puts it in her mouth because
she was wrestling with a mouthful
for a while throwing chicks around.
Then she finally spit it out on
Ria Ripley.
Reh sold that.
Yeah, she did.
That was kind of like the end of her
after she got spit on.
she just fell down and was rolling around.
She just rolled to the edge.
And that was really much it.
But yeah, after Becky dove off the top or stepped off the top and landed on him,
Dakota went crashing to the table as well as E.O. Sky.
And then Becky Lynch pinned Dakota Kai.
And that was it.
So team Bel Air won that one.
again this match was awesome
CBS sports gave it a
A minus
Out of what we saw
I would give this an A plus
Because this was this was a really good way
To kick off the show
This next one
We've seen them go at it multiple times
And I was just kind of like not really
Super excited
I would have probably been more excited
If Finn Ballard came out as the demon
But man
We weren't excited in this dream match
no
the original leaders of the bullet club
even though they couldn't say bullet club
yeah
the AJ styles and Finn Baller
went at it
they gave it a B plus
again both of them are awesome
and they were all over the place
and then beating the hell out of each other
but the O.C those guys
kind of got involved from
man at Dominic Mysterio and Damien Priest.
All right, Dominic Mysterio.
I like him.
I like him.
I mean, of course, yeah, we all know wouldn't love his dad.
But I'm like, what are you guys doing with him?
Did you see, um,
the Thanksgiving video?
Yeah.
Yeah.
When Dominic and Ria showed up at Ray's house and went in there and he,
beat up his dad.
I was just like,
oh, come on.
Now one family member
stepped in to help.
Yeah,
nobody.
They just let him get beat up.
Dominic,
stop.
He started picking up pictures
and breaking up.
I was kind of like,
oh,
come on.
Who is Reusian?
In real life?
Yeah.
What's his name in A.W.?
Buddy Matthews.
Yeah.
Kind of like,
we all know.
she's seeing her but then I guess
you still got to stay in character for this show
and
she was rocking the
Who's your Poppy shirt one night
I was like
oh
it's all right man
I really riffly I love her
but yeah anyway
yeah this match
um
it was good
but it's just we've seen it before
yeah
so I
wasn't really like super duper excited or hype for it i was kind of uh back and forth looking at
my phone and talking uh to my son while this one was going on yeah this should have been the
oc versus the judgment day match yeah it probably would have been better if it was all of them in it
but i mean a j and fin baller they amazing performers because uh they're both high flyers
and all that, which I love, especially Finn Baller.
But it just didn't do nothing.
It was, well, to me, I mean, I'm sure guys and gals that are super duper diehard fans of these two,
who I probably loved it.
But I just wanted a little bit more, and I didn't get it.
AJ Styles ended up pinning Finn Baller for the win.
So, but yeah.
I agree with everything you're saying
And I really thought that Finn should have picked up the win
Because I kind of I ended up really liking what they're doing with the judgment day
And putting the focus on Finn
Because they've been kind of wasting him
So it just kind of didn't make any sense for him to lose this match
Yeah
I mean
I liked it when he went over to NXT for that minute
and everyone was just saying that he was trying to
bring up that brand I was like they didn't need him
but that was my opinion
but
the next match I was really really excited
for but oh my god it was
it was just not
not good we knew what the outcome was going to be
of course we were I mean they basically
oh well before we
ronda out the smack
down women's championship ronda rousey's a champ taking on shotsy a khaity blackhart um
i love both of them i like ronda i never really had issues with her uh coming onto the show i know
a lot of people did all they're just can give her the bell because of who she is of course
um but she she has proven herself i've said this before she has proven herself time and time before
So I'm all right with Rhonda
Where she's at right now
I love her as a heel right now too
Yeah I'm not digging what they're doing with her now
Her and Shana Basel together
Yes
If you follow Shana Basler
She doesn't wear makeup
She's a cute gal
But when she puts on the black eyeliner
Yeah I'm down
I don't like when Rhonda does it
just look normal.
You don't need to add all this extra to your face.
Yeah, just have her look, how she,
when they do like the backstage stuff during Smackdown,
and she's, you know, rocking the leather coat and the hair down.
Yeah.
Just do that.
And then you can have to go, like, super hard on the eye makeup.
But Shotsie, she's, she's just fucking hot.
I love her.
I've loved her since the indie days and during all the hood slam stuff.
She's from the Bay Area.
so of course I got to go with her
I actually got my
my Shatsy figure right in front of me
I had to order it online
because I couldn't find it in the store anywhere
Why did I get it from
I think it was wrestling collectibles
or something like that
but yeah
I love it when she comes out in the tank
and everything
but
yeah this match was
it was really short
and
CBS Sports gave
it a D because
Ronda's just
I don't know why they couldn't just
let Shati win which kind of shake it up
and maybe
Ronna can get it again later down the line
but I mean because they had that whole
buildup for Smackdown
for to get the
opportunity to go against Ronda
and Shotsie ended up winning
it seems like there's
really setting it up for
what's their name to be the next
big contender
what's the name Raquel
I think she'll good
I think it would be a good match between them too
I mean Raquel's big I mean tall
so I'd love to see that
and did you read that they
they muted out a certain
chant that was going on during the match
because people just thought the crowd was completely
dead for this match but they were actually
muting out a chance
for your girl to
I'm out.
They wonder.
I was like,
because yeah,
I was like,
well,
what's happening?
Why?
Why is everyone so quiet?
I was like,
everybody fell asleep or something?
Yeah,
I was kind of like,
I'm not,
I'm not getting what's going on here,
but I don't know.
We'll see because,
yeah,
they were,
they were shins.
Oh,
my God.
They were chins for my girl.
We want Sasha.
I mean, understandable, it was her hometown.
Yeah, but they had to, yeah, they had to mute all that.
I can't remember which pay-per-view, they were all chan seeing punk,
but they left all that in, they didn't care, but all right.
And some people were saying, oh, that's just to let everyone know that punk's coming back.
I don't, I don't think so.
I don't think he'll come back to WWE.
A lot to work.
a lot to work through
for that.
If he came back like for the
Rumble and they threw like
million dollars at him that would be awesome
but I don't think punk would do it.
I don't know if they would have him back.
I mean if it was like them button heads
and then him kind of leaving his other company
because of shit like that,
they're probably thinking what's he going to be like now to work with?
Yeah.
Yeah, I think after all the stuff that went on
over AEW.
I don't think they would ever bring him back.
Yeah, again, this match,
it was really not.
I guess it wasn't nothing special.
I wanted it to be because I love both of these gals.
And Shana,
she got involved.
I love when Shati went and dove through the ring
and knocked Shana Bezler down.
And Shana was just,
she does what she does in the ring.
But I was kind of like, I mean, dollars for donuts,
Shana and Rhonda could probably whoop everyone's ass in real life.
They came to it.
But I don't know.
But I think Raquel would put up a good fight.
But the part that made me laugh in this match is when they fell out of the ring.
And Shane kind of got involved for a minute.
Shatzi took her out, and then she grabbed Rhonda and threw her over the barricade.
And then she threw, I'm watching this, and then she threw Shana over the barricade.
They both get up and Shati climbs up onto the barricade and runs and cross bodies on both of them.
But luckily there was these three seats that were sticking out into the aisle with two gentlemen and a young woman.
and they all go crashing in.
Oh, you're talking about the random fans?
Yeah.
I liked it.
It was cool and it was funny,
but I was like,
come on,
why are these three seats sticking way out into the aisle?
But I didn't,
I didn't write this costume.
I mean,
if you go to like indie shows,
sometimes they do go crashing into the crowd
and it's not planned,
but this is
WWE. Everybody's got to work
safe and obviously those are probably
up and coming wrestlers.
Yeah, I'm looking at it now.
I don't know. Maybe they usually
just have three random seats in the Iowa
like that.
No, because later when you go back and they show it,
those seats are gone.
Maybe they realize
they shouldn't have seats there.
It's a hazard.
But yeah, right after all that,
I thought that was
cool.
Ronda and
Shati climbed up to the top rope
and then Rhonda just fucking
flung Shatsy over and then she went crashing
but she tried to tap her out but she didn't.
But
Ronda of course
she does a Piper's Pit
and slam Shotsie to the ground.
I hate that move. I hate that move so much.
I mean I'll give it to Ronda. She's strong because I love
how she gets it into the Piper's pit.
how she rolls it up and then picks them up.
And then like from the ground,
just all her might picks them up
and then slams them and everything.
This is not enough impact on the slam for me to believe.
That's a finishing move.
But she's got to do her signature arm bar.
She's clearly bending the elbow in the right way.
Yeah.
As soon as I saw that, I said,
okay, this is over.
And it was.
I mean, like immediately shotsy,
tapped out.
So, but
I mean, the three
of them,
especially Shana,
when she got involved
on everything,
it was good.
But this match
was just really too,
was short.
And of course,
I'm going to be mad
on the outcome.
But we already knew
who was going to win.
And so,
but it was,
it was nothing to ride home about.
But I do have,
I do see it.
I see Shana and
Ronda going at it
sometime in the,
in the future.
If not in the distant, hopefully in the near.
Because I think that would be a good match.
But something's going to happen.
I think Shane is going to do something to piss Rhonda off.
And then they're going to beat the hell out of each other.
And then Rhonda's probably going to disappear for a while again.
But I don't know.
We'll see.
All right.
This next one, I wasn't really excited for it.
But man, this was a good match.
This was the United States championship match.
the Monday night Messiah
Seth Fenn Rollins
and the architect
and whatever else
he want to call him
he's a champ
and he took on
the almighty
Bobby Lashley
and dumb ass
Austin theory
A town down
Oh fuck
And you got to have
This new change of character
is better than the selfie
taking one
Yeah I'm glad
That he stopped that nonsense
And I'm sure it wasn't his idea
to do it.
I just hate him.
I'm sorry, everyone.
If you're an Austin Theory fan
and he's a good-looking kid,
I can give him that,
but I just don't know.
I just don't like him.
That was Vince's boy before he left.
But with that,
set aside,
he does work.
He puts in the work when he's in the ring.
Because he,
he, this,
I wouldn't say this match,
surprised me on what he can do because, I mean, he always does it, but he was obviously the one
that these two didn't want nothing to do with because right in the very beginning, Bobby
Lashley just clothes lines him and then throws him out. And then his dumb ass climbs back up with
the ring and then Seth Rowe's close lines him and throws him back out. So I was kind of glad
that they were just beating the hell out of him and throwing him to the side while they could go at it.
but again
Bobby Lashley
Big Brute
doesn't age
he looks exactly the same
when he first came on the scene
if not bigger
but he's still cool
I like what he does
and Seth Rollins
man you can't go wrong
with him
I'm still mad that
he stole the belt
from Roman Rains at
WrestleMania 32, 3
whatever that one was
the heist of the century
or whatever the fuck
it was
I'm still mad.
I can still see it.
I mean, we were hyped.
And then when his music hit, I immediately went, no.
And then he came hauling as that ramp was long.
If you were there at that WrestleMania, or you watched it, dude.
That was a long haul.
Couldn't get the NWO to run down there.
They were hobbling along.
And they took forever to get to the rink when they came out.
but um
this match was awesome man
I thought it was good and again
Austin theory other than them
just beating them around
he he held his own with them
um he was he was taking a lot of hard
bumps but he was also giving him
because he was beating the shit out of
uh Bobby lashley for a little bit
but
I didn't like the outcome
but I was like ah but I kind of knew
where they were going
mainly because Austin Theory was was taken such a beating.
Yeah.
But, I mean, that was, that was, the CBS Sports gave this one an A.
I would, I would have gave it an A plus because I really did.
This was probably the second best match of the night.
Yeah.
I liked it.
I like what they're doing with, I'm not a fan of Austin Theory,
but I like the attitude change, the more serious take on it.
And I could see them putting the belt on, taking the belt off of,
Rollins, I see they're moving Rollins into a more of a baby face character.
Mm.
Uh-huh.
We'll see.
I mean, I can baby face heal.
I can take Rollins either way because,
excuse me,
no matter what he does,
he's still,
he's still awesome in the ring.
So either or I can take him.
But I think my,
the most excited thing for,
for me during this one,
was the end
was the end match
oh that was just
I wasn't expecting that at all
I mean
because it just happened so fast
on what was I'm trying to get to the part
so I can exactly remember
what it was
are you talking about the finish
yeah I think it was
Seth Rollins gave
Austin
the superplex right into the
Falcon Arrow
and as he was picking him up
Bobby came in for the spear
and spear Rollins and then
I think
that's when Austin kind of landed on him
for the pin
because yeah right before that
Bobby Lashley and Austin
Theory were down
and Ronald went stepped off
Austin Theory's back
in Curbson
stomped.
Bobby
Lasley.
I thought that was
really cool.
But yeah,
now they're up
on Bobby Lashy's
laying there.
Seth Rohn's
Superplex,
Austin Theory,
and then picks them
up again.
And then Bobby
Leslie speared
Seth Rones
and Austin Theory
came down and just
boom,
pinned
Seth Rones.
But that one,
it was kind of
right before all this.
Seth Rons.
was he kind of got roughed up and he was like laying outside of the ring and bobby lashley and austin
theory were going at it and i think it was bobby lashy was getting about to pin austin theory and
out of nowhere set ralins came flying in and just broke it up oh the with the splash off the top
though yeah because the way they filmed it but we're we're just focusing on two guys are in the ring
and just out of the left side of the of the picture set thrallons comes do you
just landed on top of him, but when they showed the replays when we saw him,
you saw him climb up and dive off.
But I was like, I was going off during this match.
It was awesome.
I wasn't expecting this one to be that good.
I mean, it's just because I hate Austin theory.
But, I mean, he held his own, man.
And he's a champ now.
But that spirit was kind of weak.
He, like, just kind of grabbed Seth.
And Seth just fell.
and had to sell it.
But I did like the crowd reaction.
There was some Austin Theory fans there.
They kind of jumped in hoot and holler,
but everyone else had their mouths open like,
what?
And all that.
What was with his stupid wristband?
What is it?
The now?
He's the now?
I don't know.
He's the dumb.
I don't know.
Do you hear they're trying to
allegedly building up a match with him and John Sina?
at WrestleMania.
John Cena will run through him.
Oh, I did like when Bobby
Lashney put the Hurlok on both of them.
The double hurd lock.
Osce Ther was basically just sandwiched between them two.
It was hell of weakly good, but it just made me laugh.
So, but I was all right with it.
All right.
On to the main event.
before we diving the main event did you watch the press conference after i didn't
i didn't i was just like yeah but i mean throughout um in between the matches they were
hyping up uh sammy zane and not what his loyalty is to the bloodline and tell me so
my tribal chief shut up
He's
He's
He's a
He's uh
He's uh
He's uh
He's uh
He's uh
So no
But all right
Uh
The main event
Uh
The men's war games
Was uh
Team Bloodline
Roman Range
J Uso
Jimmy Uso
Sammy Zane
And Solo
Sikoa Sikoa
Yeah
Against team
Brawling Brutes
Man
Pete Dune, come on
To be Pete Dune again
He didn't need to be Butch
Shames, Butch, Rich Holland,
Drew McIntyre, and Kevin Owens
Um
Seamus didn't do much
I think he was just there
It was mainly Butch and Ridge Holland
Because they were really going for it
During this
Seamus is getting old
Yeah, Kevin Owens as well man
He's the one that kicked it off
He was going for it.
I liked it.
I know he's trying to build up his his feud with Roman.
We've seen that match before, but we haven't seen it like all the time.
So I'm excited for that.
I don't know if it will be WrestleMania or whatever,
but I see that one being good,
especially Kevin Owens, man.
He's a little poorly, little chubby guy,
but he still does what he needs to do.
He can fly high.
He can do his flips and all that.
So I think Kevin Owens can do it.
will he win
go ahead
I'll say but can he win
I would like to see that win
but I
don't want no one taking the belt away from
I'm a Roman guy
I got my seat at the table
and he's my tribal chief
and I'll acknowledge him
but
you think he he's even close
to being the one to take the belts off of Roman
I say it's Cody
Um
I got right
I would be okay with that
I wouldn't I wouldn't be mad
But
I like when Kevin Owens had his little run
He was always talking hell of shit
So I kind of see that again
I mean if Cody wins cool awesome
But I don't see him
Being as entertaining
Uh
As a champ like Kevin Owens will
But I don't know
We'll see
But yeah the brawling brutes
Come on
I just like how
they had a camera
mounted on one of the bars in the cages
and everything because yeah, Butch kicked it
off and
then they brought all their team
out. Who
came in first? Was it
either Jimmy or Jay? I don't
main event Jay.
I get him confused.
He's the one with the short
hair. I still
want to know whose
idea was it. I dig it
and it's funny to bring
in Sammy Zane
into the
bloodline. I was like
who came up with this?
I didn't like it in the beginning, but now
I'm slowly
starting to like it.
Because I'm glad that Sammy Zane
is still there.
I think this
is just building up to something bigger.
When he does leave the bloodline
and they finally kick him out, I think it's going to be one of the
Usos or
I can see solo getting mad.
Why is this guy here?
But I don't know.
We'll see where it goes.
But CBS Sports gave this match an A plus.
I'm saying C plus B minus kind of in there.
Yeah, I don't.
Because I like the story they were telling because this constant,
can we trust Sammy?
Is Jay going to flip out in costumes, you know, because of his distrust for the Sammy?
You know, I liked all that.
But it just, they didn't go hard enough for me like the women did.
Yeah, because I don't think anyone flew off the top of the cage, did they?
I don't even remember if there was any big, any big spots in this.
Yeah, because they were just roughing each other up.
I mean, Ridge Holland was, he was bringing it to the Oosols because he was throwing them,
throwing them all over the place.
I know they kept throwing Butch into the cage like over and over.
Yeah, but he's a little guy.
So I could see there.
I don't like that.
Why can't he be P. Dune?
Yeah, what was his thing?
He was the bruiserweight?
Yeah.
He'd fight anybody.
I mean, and then he just was this little crazy guy, Butch.
Yeah, I'm just.
I'm like, all right, man, whatever.
His little hat and his little suspenders.
What happened to the vaudevillians or whatever the hell they were called?
I think one's in the independence and the other one went to impact.
But they brought in tables and stuff into this because Kevin Owens came running in and threw in chairs.
And they had tables in it because the crowd was hooting and hollering and one tables.
and the girls, they did it.
I mean, they did it here too,
but it wasn't just,
it wasn't really exciting.
Because when Kevin Owens came in,
he came in with the chairs
and immediately went after the Uso's
and started fucking them up
with it.
But I love it when,
when they get hit with the chairs,
they just hit him in the back.
But I don't know if it was,
Jay.
He kind of like,
Kevin Owens was coming at him with the chair
and he just turned
and put his back up
so he can hit him.
him. I was like, come on. I mean,
don't make it so obvious.
Kevin Owen was bad ass.
Yeah, he came in and he brought it right to them,
beating the shit out of them.
He gave him the DX chop and everything.
You better stop stealing everybody's stuff.
DX chop, stunner.
Yeah, it's like everybody's stealing
one another's in the
was it the Man Slam or whatever?
Rock bottom.
the hell man
the manhandle slam
yeah that
that's the rock bottom
what are you talking about
but oh man
when solo came in man
he's fucking
he's a little brute too man
he was beating the hell out of everybody
yeah he does the rock bottom
except they call it the swinging solo
Roman ring
was the final one
to enter the ring
and I don't like this shirtless Roman Ray.
I just liked his little shield gear he wore for a while.
You know it's for the ladies.
Yeah.
I mean, shit, if I had a body like that,
I'd walk around no shirt either all the time.
And I love their tattoos that all of them having.
I think that's pretty sweet.
Can't wait for Sammy to get his.
He better than out, man.
you can have like
remember um
remember um maga had the fake uh face once
yeah he can get like some of those
oh man
some of it would beat him up for that but
it was like once all 10 men were in the group
because yeah the match doesn't
actually start until all 10 are in
so these guys are beating the hell out of each other
and getting tired before the match even begins
so but i like once they all got in
they were uh each team was standing and
in one ring
and then they went at it
and I was going, all right, now they're all in.
I'm expecting more and
we didn't get much more in this.
I mean, yeah, I was
disappointed in this match.
I mean, I like everyone that
participated in this war games match,
but it just, I don't know,
it didn't work.
So, but, I don't know.
I think this was just
just a further along the same
Zane storyline with the bloodline and it had nothing to do with anybody else on the
on the other team I mean it was I think they build it up like they hype they
make you hyped raw and everything when they're showing all right this is going to
lead up to to work to Survivor series and then we get it and then I'm kind of
like hmm I was kind of disappointed but yeah even like they're hyping up like when
Drew gets in there
him and Solo Sokoa
Because you know solo was the one that cost him his title
They ain't really do nothing in there
No
They had a minute where they were like punching each other
But like they didn't really go at it
As they were hyping it up
I liked with
Towards the end of the match
When Kevin Owens and Sammy Zane were going at it
And Kevin picked up
Roman Rains laying on the ground
and he was yelling at him.
But then I think it was Jay
tried to super kick Kevin Owens, but he caught it,
slammed him.
But then Sammy Zane went low
and gave Kevin Owens a nut shot.
So he went down.
I mean,
the way Sammy Zane was in there, like,
what did I do?
Because of course, the announcers,
they used to be best friends.
They were rivals in 18 and they were friends
and now this and all that.
I was kind of like, come on, shut up.
Just yeah and is it just me I'm I'm I'm a fan of Sammy that he can go in the ring
But is it just me or does it look like he forgot how to wrestle?
Um, it seems like he just turned into comic relief yeah if anything
Because I remember him being this goofy yeah like when he first came in and I forgot who was like laying on the ground
Remember he jumped on them was just kind of doing them like little little fast little stomp moves
yeah
I was like what are we doing
yeah it was it was not good
but yeah after
um
they roughed up uh
Kevin Owens uh Sammy Zane
kind of walked around and
was looking like uh what are we doing
and then he just kind of
laid out
uh Kevin Owens and then
Jay
is Jay the one's long hair
no it's a short hair
yeah Jimmy is
Jimmy is
came off for the splash and then he pinned um kevin owens did he just sell his soul to the devil
or whatever they were saying i don't know man i tell it's like some of these comments just shut up
you know who that was your boy oh but the bloodline yeah the bloodline won uh this one but sammy zanes like
kind of confused
or the looks on him
he's like
am I is my loyalty
to the bloodline
or to my so-called
best friend
but
well he's confused
up until
the embrace from Jay
yeah
he got
Sammy Uso
got super hyped
he got Ousey
start tearing off his shirt
oh fucking
Roman Rains
hold out his arms
and then hugs him.
But you can see that the brothers are mad
because Jay's like just sitting there like rolling his eyes
as Roman Raines is
cuddling
Sammy's thing
because both the brothers and Solor
are standing there looking at him.
Lucy.
They're going to beat him up.
Something's going to happen whether Sammy's going to turn on them
and they're going to beat him up.
but I want all of them to beat them up.
No, they're going to have solo beat them up and one of the,
one of the Uso's, I think, I think Jimmy,
because they have their little special handshake is going to try to save them.
And this is going to be like the split up of the bloodline.
Sammy's ain't screaming, what now?
Turns old shut up.
That's the definition of Ousey.
I mean, you got to work.
So, yeah, man, to do what you got to do.
But I want to know whose idea this was to get him in all of this.
Yeah, because the Uso, they all hugged him.
Solo just kind of like just stood there, looked at him.
So, yeah, I kind of said that happened.
There is a video on YouTube.
I guess Sammy got him to, got solo to break character and kind of laugh
because he had to like
acted like he was wiping his face with his towel
but he was like covering his face
laughing
yeah
Survivor Series war games
the women's war games match was awesome
and the
Seth Rones and
Almighty and
dumb ass awesome theory those
to me were the main two
matches that like just fucking
and ruled.
But I don't know.
We'll see with what they're doing.
What's next?
Role Rumble?
Yeah, Role on January 28th.
So this was the last,
what the fuck did they call it?
P-L-E pay-per-view.
We'll just keep calling them pay-per-views
because we're old enough to call them pay-per-views.
Last one for the year.
Yeah.
I mean, there's.
there is that
nxte deadline thing
when's that one
December 10th
all right well
it's supposed to be some kind of new
innovative match
with like a whole bunch of people involved
and points and the winner
gets like a title shot or something
I heard they're supposed to be bringing back
some
old nxte people to be in a match
I don't know we'll see
but oh fucking totally forgot about him the the prince of fucking darkness
Ozzy Osbourne uh kind of kicked the show off
yelling and screaming shit while they were playing war pig
Black Sabbath's war pigs and um
I love Ozzy I've been a fan of his since I was a little kid
but I don't know whatever song they were hyping up that's on his new
new album or whatever. I mean,
I'm glad
that Ozzy's still alive and he's still
putting out music. I think he's about to
retire and move back to England.
I'm sorry,
Oz. I don't dig
the new stuff.
Give me Black Sabbath and old
Ozzy and everything, but
that's me, everyone. I mean, but I've been a fan of
Ozzy since the 70s.
We're doing the Black Sabbath stuff, but
yeah I know he was in the news for a while
because they were both talking about the
they're tired of what's going on in America
and they want to go back
to England and everyone's out well fuck you
go back I'm like
shut up
I mean he's Ozzy he can do what he wants
he don't care what you guys think
he's still got millions and millions of dollars
he's got that reality money
he's got that rock star money
and
everybody's using his music
and movies.
So, I mean, he's getting that cut,
but also the rest of Black Sabbath
and everyone else, or when they just do
his solo stuff in movies.
So you can't go wrong with that.
WWE Survivor Series war games.
Just those two matches to me
were the best ones and
we'll see
where it goes.
And I still think
Sammy Zanes is mad
that are kind of sad.
that he had to beat up his buddy
Kevin Owens
so we'll see
because I'm looking at this picture
and Kevin Owens is basically
in Sammy Zane's arms
and Sammy's looking all sad
and Kevin Owens is looking like he's all beat the hell
but
maybe it'll be a Roman and Sammy
at WrestleMania
Sammy takes the
undisputed title
if that happened it would be a mistake
on why
Roman loses
I know
that that can't know that well that no that well that won't fly that won't fly with that
even if they brought that up to roman hey man we want you to drop the belt to sammy zane he would
like what but i don't know um we'll see where it goes because uh he's been champ for a minute now
yeah over two years yeah so they got to do the rock thing i don't know bring back night jacks
but i don't think she's coming back
They bring back Naomi.
She's technically bloodline.
Yeah.
Where's Tamina at?
Tamina is getting her ass kicked in a dark match I've seen.
Her too, man.
I think she could whoop some ass, like for real.
I think she can handle hers.
But they just,
they're just stringing her along.
But I don't know.
It's WWE, everyone.
We'll see.
but when was the
NXT one again?
December 10th.
All right,
but all right,
we'll be back with that one
and that'll probably be the last
wrestling returns for the year.
Sorry we didn't do the last
few pay-per-views.
I mean, for me,
life and everything
was going on.
And it's a silly season,
the holidays,
and
sometimes I'm just not feeling,
feeling it.
Not feeling.
feeling it for the shows. I mean, I wasn't want to do the shows, but sometimes you just
not feeling how it is. I don't think anybody's feeling the holidays.
No, because it is, it is a depressing season as well. I mean, if you are
dealing with depression, and you have those thoughts, please don't, don't do it, don't act
on it. I'm only saying this because of a friend of mine that did.
he did he did take his life during the holidays and it's
this is always kind of reminder uh when this happens but
always reach out to someone and help yourself help yourself get better
I mean there's we want you here we want you to keep listening to me
bitch and complain about this and that
and everything but we we want you here if you don't know us and we don't know you
hey, we love you and you have a friend.
You have two friends.
You have two friends.
You have two brothers right here that'll listen to you if you need someone to talk to.
Even the well is the Zisu over on East Society.
He's right there with me when we talk about stuff like this.
But we got through November.
Now we got to get through December.
And then we can start that clock over again for the new year.
Because that's what I'm always waiting for.
It's just as soon as January 1st hits
And I'm like
Feels like a ton of bricks
I lift it off me
And then I got to just do that next year
And everything, but
We got a lot of stuff
We want to do here
On the Horror Returns Network
As well as over
On the Skater Ness podcast network
With the East Society of MacNez
I've kind of been on a small little role
With my Magnus podcast
I'm proud of you man
Two of them
Consistent with it
it was Native American Heritage Month,
so I wanted to do something,
and I'm glad that I got two
quick little interviews.
One of the Res family here in Susanville,
where I live,
a young little sister,
shout out to Cyrus,
glad that I got to talk to her.
And then when I went down to L.A. Skinsfest in Hollywood,
I got to talk with one of the little actors
that was in this one film,
short film that I liked.
I mainly want to talk to him
because he was a little skateboarder.
And I just love that.
He's going to come back on the show again.
I found out that he is friends with my nephew out in North Carolina.
So he's got my information.
I got his.
I told him he died.
My cousin, she sent me a picture.
Hey, look who I ran into.
And then she'll have some basketball games.
So I was like, hey, just I want him to come back on the show and talk more about skateboarding.
So he's going to do that.
So East Society's Skate Society, we're going to do more.
with him as well as my nephew. He's skateboarded, so I want to get him on the show for the first time.
But yeah, go over and listen to everything we got there. We just dropped the new East Society.
We're recording this on what, when Monday? Yeah, I just dropped it this morning.
Episode 275 talking about this and that. I finally gave my two cents on Wakanda Forever.
So go over and check that out. Also, a little bit on a Christmas story, Christmas. Go check that out.
And I think spirit is what the Zizi was talking about.
I haven't seen that yet.
What I want to see it and everything else we talked about.
And yeah, for everything here, go over to thehorroriturns.com for information on everything,
as well as all the links to all the shows and to the T-Public store.
New designs that are on there.
So definitely go over there and get yourself one.

I'll jump on that one.
I want to watch that one.
Shout out to Shanty Phillips.
I believe he directed that one.
Amityville, everyone.
My opinion, just watched the first three,
the remake and
Amityville murders
and I think it's awakening
with Belletorn
yeah I think
to me those are the ones worth watching but if you
hardcore like my brother here
and then sitting through all of them
or even the action one
I don't remember what that was
oh my gosh uprising
should have been Amityville action
or something I don't know that one was

is coming back hopefully really soon as well as stream fiends
action is going to be uh American not American Ninja
uh enter the ninja and stream fans is time rider
so uh well those are coming everyone just just hold your horses
