Starting point is 00:00:06 Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, welcome to another episode of the wrestling returns. WrestleMania 39 has come and gone, but we're still here. We're going to talk about it. Nez. I'm your host, Brian. It's been a while with my brother, Nez here. Yeah. WrestleMania 39 Hollywood, or.
Starting point is 00:00:38 San Francisco. I don't know where they're keeping Hollywood now, but it goes Hollywood. Far from Hollywood, everyone. What do you think, man? Before we dive anything, I was gone, everyone, for a week. So that's why we're so late. Saturday night, this is what we're going to talk about tonight. We'll probably run through the rest as well.
Starting point is 00:01:03 But to me, Saturday night was the best. and if I went but I ended up going back to Arizona I would have went this day because the which I thought was going to be the main event Charlotte Flair and Rio Ripley Mommy I thought that was going to be the main event but it wasn't but this first night was cool but what did you think about
Starting point is 00:01:28 the Miz and the DO double jizzle as the host of WrestleMania you. Ms. was doing his Ms. thing and I was a little bit
Starting point is 00:01:41 surprised because I don't, I don't think I even read anything about Snoop being involved as the host. I don't know. That was the last minute
Starting point is 00:01:48 thing or what, but I thought he kind of added something to it. He made it a little bit fun because I know he's a big wrestling fan, so it was cool to see him there because the crowd was,
Starting point is 00:02:01 I think the crowd was feeling it because, you know, everybody loves Snoop. and uh, Ms. I mean, I guess you got to, you got to have them,
Starting point is 00:02:11 you got to, if love them or hate him, you got to have them involved. You know, that guy's been down with the company since day one. Ever since he's been there, he's been kind of that guy that, whatever you need him to do.
Starting point is 00:02:26 I don't know about him. I think to me, this grand slam thing, but I think he's, I mean, I love the miss. I mean, either or.
Starting point is 00:02:36 I mean, heal he's got to be um he's good on the mic i mean he's hey man we need you get out there and he can go out there and do it off the top of his head and everything so i always i always have love for him when he gets in the ring it's still cool i mean i love it he does his moves and everything snoop uh he looked like he was kind of he was in he was having fun i mean he watches wrestling and everything i love the belt that he had talk about his mood. He was cool.
Starting point is 00:03:12 I liked him, but he lacked a little on the mic. But he did it. He served his purpose. Yeah, the crowd, they were all into everyone, especially everyone from L.A.
Starting point is 00:03:22 Everyone in the world loves Snoop. So, but I thought, I thought they both did a good job, both nights. We'll get to the second night. I, you know what,
Starting point is 00:03:32 not as you said it, I agree with you. He was okay on the mic. I just felt like if he would have just kind of, I think he was trying to say what he thought the, what he thought the crowd wanted to hear. Yeah. Instead of just being Snoop.
Starting point is 00:03:46 I mean, he was Snoop, but I think he was trying to, I guess, be WWE version of Snoop. Yeah, some of the stuff he said kind of, kind of just fizzled.
Starting point is 00:03:59 But I mean, it's all right, man, he's Snoop. I mean, he's the dog father. Everyone knows him. Everyone loves him.
Starting point is 00:04:06 But, he didn't get in the ring and seewalk for a second. Isn't he in the Hall of Fame too? I think so. Him and there's a, all right, Hall of Fame. You want to go there real quick.
Starting point is 00:04:24 No, really, really quick. Only one thing. It was funny and I looked at State K-Fame the whole way. When Ray Mysterio got up there and said his speech, I had tears on my eyes because I didn't know a lot of that stuff. when mainly dealing with his wife. That was that was really awesome. She just,
Starting point is 00:04:41 she believes in her husband and just quit medical school and just worked and helped him fulfill his dream in the ring. Well, that was awesome. But mommy and Dominique, how they were just sitting there and they just got up and left. Oh, man. It's all the part of the show, everyone.
Starting point is 00:05:06 I kind of want to know, like, how did that really make him feel? I know he's playing a character, but. Yeah. So I have to play this character and get up at that moment of his father's induction. I mean, I just wonder if that was like hard for him to do, or was he just kind of like, you know, this is this is all part of the show. And I mean, he played it.
Starting point is 00:05:33 He played it good. Yeah, both of them did, especially Ria. I mean, she's, she was just sitting there like rolling her eyes and everything. But it was cool. I loved what they did. I thought that was awesome. They just stayed in character the whole way and just got up and left. Obviously, he went backstage and he watched it.
Starting point is 00:05:58 I'm sure he was hugging his dad and everything when they saw him. But that was, it was still cool. I loved that moment. I couldn't even tell you who else got into the Hall of Fame, but that was stuck out to me the most. Ramish Stereo speech. Yeah, I can't remember the referee's name that got in that passed away. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Shit, I can't remember. Who else? I just, I just remember. I know what's his name? Andy Kaufman got in as a celebrity, which was cool because he was a big wrestling fan. And he had that thing with the king, Jerry, dollar like back in the day which nobody nobody knew that was a that was a work
Starting point is 00:06:41 until like years late years after his death yeah it was all planned which for the longest I thought it was a real real thing especially when he was on the tonight show when Jerry slapped the shit out of him yeah I thought it was real I mean I figured that
Starting point is 00:06:58 this is what I thought back then that Andy Coffins who he was who he was and he was just playing it up and just kind of took a little too far and the king just got fucking piss and let him have it. That's what I thought.
Starting point is 00:07:14 I didn't know it was a whole work and everything. So I was kind of like, all right, cool. Now, I understand. But it was cool that he went in there. Okay. It was the Great Muda got in.
Starting point is 00:07:30 All right. The hell is it? Stacey Keebler. Of course, we said Andy Kaufman and Ray Mysterio, and then Tim White was the referee that got in. Oh, good. Was this at the stadium as well? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:55 I didn't watch it. I only saw the highlights and the whole thing with Ray Mysterio. Yeah. Because they were playing the Dominic walking out. They was like posting it everywhere. So I didn't really want. watch it. I'll have to go back and watch it.
Starting point is 00:08:14 But you want to get into this? So they just gave you your boy right away first match, first night. I was kind of happy they, they got it out of the way. Austin Theory versus John Cena, the United States title. I,
Starting point is 00:08:34 it was a good match. I mean, Austin Theory, he does what he does. He plays the asshole that he is. is cool. I can respect that and everything.
Starting point is 00:08:46 His moves in the ring, yeah, he does what he does. I just, I know it was because of Vince that they moved him up so quick. He was Vince's boy, but I think it was too late. He was already up there. People do love him.
Starting point is 00:09:01 So they just, they just, all right, let's just ride with him. But we got to get someone. I think they love to hate him. Yeah. And another person everyone loves to hate. is John Cena, of course. It was cool. Did he look smaller?
Starting point is 00:09:17 Yeah, he's a, I seen some interview because he was talking about the not being as big as he usually was. And he also talked about like the hair and the bald spot. He was doing an interview. I forgot where it was. I should have posted it. They were asking him questions.
Starting point is 00:09:36 I know the slimming down and the hair is all because of his, acting career now. Yeah. I don't think he can I mean, he could probably do a little bit more not being that big. Yeah. And I mean, he
Starting point is 00:09:55 he's all over with acting. He can be action. He can be comedy. And he's proven it. I mean, he's been to the comedies that he's been in, the little stuff that he's been in. He's been hell funny. You know, I loved him. Peacemaker, awesome. And he's action and it's hell funny.
Starting point is 00:10:11 So, but this is actually a good match, man. I like it. Of course, I was for, I was for Sina. I love that a little retro G.I. Joe, Sina shirt. I kind of want that shirt. I love the front, how the packaging looked. And on the back, it had the little, the classified card. I was like, oh, man, I'm going to have to get that.
Starting point is 00:10:35 I think I want that shirt mainly for what's on the back. But I support Sina. I love them or hate them. Yeah, I've cheered. Yeah, John Cena sucks when it came out before at some live shows and everything. But you're just getting into the fun of being there. I watched this video on TikTok. It was some guy who was like the nosebleeds at WrestleMania.
Starting point is 00:10:56 And they were way up there. Everyone was like, I'd rather watch it at home. I mean, yeah, cool. But, I mean, if you love wrestling that much, it doesn't matter where you. Would you want to be? You know, of course we all want to be in the front. But no matter what, even if you're in there, you're feeling the vibe. You're there.
Starting point is 00:11:17 It's WrestleMania weekend. Everyone's having a good time. I don't know about the screens or whatever that was above the ring. I know. I think that's there for football games as well. It looks small. I was like thin. I'm sure it's pretty big, but I don't know.
Starting point is 00:11:40 I mean, but I don't care. I would have been happy being anywhere in there. Even those seats that were behind the stage look like didn't matter. I mean, people were there and it was supposedly sold out. I mean, I've seen the camera spin around. There was some empty seats in there. But this match, they both, they did what they had to do. They both beat the hell out of each other.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Of course, Sina. I mean, I love the shoulder tackles. Oh, that's probably my favorite move when he gets into that, into that run back and forth with shoulder tackles and everything but Austin theory man this kid's in shape man and he does what he does I mean he plays that asshole and I hate this move
Starting point is 00:12:22 I hate his A town down A town down Oh fuck man And fucking oh Corey I hate him I hate him so much man You know it would be the best thing ever If Corey Graves became Austin theories manager and you get to see them both on TV every week.
Starting point is 00:12:45 They're doing the jobs. They're making me hate them, especially core. There's got to be, Michael Cole's got to be that one the root for the face and Corey has to root for the heels. But man, he was, he was going a little extra on this one. You just hate me. You just hate Corey because who he's married to. That too, but, oh, man, I never.
Starting point is 00:13:05 I didn't even like him when he was in the ring, but. I don't even remember. when he was wrestling. It was like a flash. To me, I mean, he probably was in there for a while, but I just,
Starting point is 00:13:15 I just didn't care for him. It was like one and done to me. I heard he's cleared now if he wanted to. I thought he was going to come back in the rumble, but, I mean, that'd be cool and I knew he would have got thrown out, but,
Starting point is 00:13:29 I mean, but John Cena, yeah, he, he's awesome. Yeah, he does look smaller. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:13:36 I love the jorts, of course. and everything, but he was there to me, he helped Austin Theory just be more. I mean, because everybody was booing him when he was out there and everything. But he played it up to the crowd. Of course, they ate downtown move at the end. But I thought, man, he was moving pretty good, both of them.
Starting point is 00:14:02 I mean, I mean, it wasn't like they needed John Cena to carry him. No, man, this kid does what he does. in the ring and he does it good. I just hate him. That's all. I mean, I got nothing to get his skills in the ring. I just hate this guy. Do you think this is it for John? I think
Starting point is 00:14:20 it'll be kind of like a rock thing. Hey man, can you come do this? Yeah, sure. And pay him however much to do it. I mean, if he has time to do it. So, but I mean, he went Hollywood. I'm
Starting point is 00:14:36 surprised the rock wasn't there. I don't know the Rock's how he is with WWE now. I mean, but, because they used to bring him back like every WrestleMania.
Starting point is 00:14:48 Yeah, I think he's filming a bunch of movies and he's trying to get that, what you would call it, up and going XFL. Is that his thing now?
Starting point is 00:15:01 Yeah, him and some partners bought it. Okay. Well, so WWE's got none of do with that anymore. No. I don't know because WWE's not even owned by WWE no more.
Starting point is 00:15:16 Since the last time we did WrestleMania. They're now bought by a different company that also owns the UFC. It's not Dana. Is Dana White still a part of that? Yeah, but he's just an employee. I think what is the company's name? Endeavor. Is he just the face? yeah he's the president puts the matches together he's not I think he owns
Starting point is 00:15:43 like 5% stock or something he owns he owns like a small piece so basically he's not hurt riddle
Starting point is 00:15:55 you get hurt no he uh he had to go to rehab too much weed or was he drinking uh I think I don't know they just said he violated that
Starting point is 00:16:09 wellness I don't think with the weed man you got a shirt just 420 bro I don't think he really I know especially before he came to WWE that was like his whole image
Starting point is 00:16:23 see I didn't know that I saw a video of him doing the ultimate fighter stuff and actually getting in there and beat kicking the fool's ass and all that before he went and how that's why he hated him
Starting point is 00:16:38 I think that's when he started smoking weed because he was getting suspended for failing drug test yeah that's what Dana White was saying he was going this kid man he's good but he just can't fucking stop smoking weed and all that but I don't know what their
Starting point is 00:16:59 their things are with this but well I mean it could have come back man I mean I liked what he does in the ring but awesome theory man he he does what he does this kid is in shape man he's fucking he's ripped but
Starting point is 00:17:18 you think you think he'll be a champion one day not any time I think it would have to be soon I don't know I could be wrong everyone I don't know how long and how big of a push you're going to give this kid but I mean if he does
Starting point is 00:17:33 I think he has I think he does have the skills to do it I don't know who he would go up against. Of course, we knew John Sina was going to lose. I was going to lose. I was going to, but we knew he was going to look. Because John Sina, he just came in to hype everyone up.
Starting point is 00:17:52 And then shout out to him, man, doing all the stuff for Make a Wish and having all those kids out there. I mean, everyone, they were all pretty stoked and everything. But this match was good. It wasn't like I hated it and everything. So, but it was cool, man. I love what was going on in this one. they both did they what they had to do when they were in the ring yeah it was a short quick match you know
Starting point is 00:18:15 the john had the crowd going for him austin had the crowd definitely going against him and uh did a little little tom foolery or whatever you call it a little little mishap with the ref and then uh austin hit your uh favorite move one two three the rest were all getting in the way this whole wrestling media they got to keep running down that giant ramp yeah man that ramp's hell hell huge but yeah that ref got knocked out knocked over
Starting point is 00:18:51 and john seen actually won but the ref was still laying there looking the other way so but then as soon as I knew that I was like he's losing so but overall again it was a good match man i thought they both carried each other pretty good so but yeah dumb ass austin theory ended up pulling it out with the pinfall i know but next match remands russomania showcase fatal four-way tag team match the street profits
Starting point is 00:19:27 versus this put together team of bronze stroman and ricochet versus alpha academy versus the Viking Raiders and you were wondering if your girl's going to make a appearance? And yes, you did. Bahá'u was the ringside with somebody else's gimmick. I don't care, man. Now she's a mom. They just got hotter to me. I never noticed she'd be walking around barefoot the whole time.
Starting point is 00:20:00 Yeah. Well, like with this Volholla thing. She didn't before. I mean, I did watch her in the Indies. I always thought she was L cute and she did her stuff. But then when she came up to, to WWE, man, I was like, oh, cool, sweet. But they just, I love the whole Riot Squad thing.
Starting point is 00:20:19 I thought that was awesome. But they just didn't really push her as the singles. I mean, every time they throw in it, we knew she was going to lose. And I was like, uh, I hate you, uh, you, uh, you're keeping up with AEW? Off and on. I mean, I, I, I, that, she was going to. should uh i'm about to get uh cable again because like they got uh their own uh ride squad going on oh with uh ruby and ruby soho and tony tony storm and sara yeah
Starting point is 00:20:51 who's a leader sarah uh i think they're the outcast so i they're supposedly no one's a leader but i just thought it was how they came out and they had like flannel shirts tied around their waist and like who who you're all supposed to be the riot squad yeah oh man all three of them i love all three of them i love tony storm when she was w-dhwee but they'd same thing they just wasted her same thing with ruby riot man i was pissed but anyway i'm glad that they're pushing them harder there but this match oh uh it had to be my favorite of the night really these guys yeah man these guys were all over the place i loved it man i was really excited
Starting point is 00:21:43 shout out to my mom uh i watched it um when i was sitting on my mom's house and my mom was just sitting there playing on her little iPad or whatever but she sat there and watched it she sat there and was like ooh and on and everything and uh she even brought up a story that my dad took i guess on one of their dates when they're first seeing each other they all they all When they were living in San Francisco, my dad took my mom to wrestling at the Cow Palace. So she goes, that's the only time she'd ever seen it other than when me, me growing up, sitting in the living room, hooting and hollering. But she was, she sat there and she watched both nights from beginning to end. So I was like, oh, cool.
Starting point is 00:22:25 I thought she was going to go sit in her room and just, oh, this is stupid. No, she sat there and watched the whole thing. so but yeah this match man I loved it I mean little shorty G he was all over the ring too man I thought he was kicking ass Viking Raiders they do what they do but I don't know
Starting point is 00:22:47 I'm just not that big of a fan of them they we ruined them yeah they had so many different gimmicks I don't know why they couldn't just be war machine I think that that's what they were called war machine when they were in the Andes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:05 And then they were kicking ass in NXT. And then they gave them like five different name changes. And then I think what ruined them was, do you remember the whole, that wasn't with the street profits when they were like playing basketball and bowling and. Yeah. See who eat the most turkey legs or something.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Oh. I don't know what they're doing there. but I mean we both went for the street profits and man they they were awesome I just loved everybody even Braun Stroman he doesn't look as big as he was he looks like he slimed down but I mean he's a big brute and he does what he does I love when he runs around the ring and was just fucking shoulder check and everyone
Starting point is 00:23:52 why is he wrestling in skinny jeans now I don't know because he's skinny here but I'll give it to shorty G man he picked picked him up and slammed when he gave him the belly the back or whatever it was yeah the German suplex and all that went all the way down yeah
Starting point is 00:24:10 he's a little short Chad gave well everyone but he's short a G it's too late they already gave him that name that's what I've called him he'd shush you if he heard that he's awesome Otis man he's just he's just funny every time he's in the ring
Starting point is 00:24:28 I like he's going back to the old Otis instead of trying to be this serious heel or whatever. It wasn't working for me. So I liked that they're kind of a little bit more of a comedic tag team. Oh, man, I was a little worried when these big guys were going up high. Because the one bigger dude, I came his name, from the Viking Raiders. He only went up to the second rope. But I was even like, ooh, I don't know, man.
Starting point is 00:25:00 Be careful. And then Braun Strowman went up top too. I was like, oh, man. Yeah, he definitely, when he jumped off, you can tell he wasn't sure about it. Because he just, the way he just jumped off, it looked like he's not really done that too many times. Yeah, because I'm watching it. Yeah, that one big dude, he, um, like that was high bar, I think. He went to the top in the moon salted and missed.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Now, here goes Bronn Stroman off the top, almost slipped in people. fell and he jumped off just the time. But yeah, man, these guys are big. I mean, but Street profits. What's the, Dawkins and what's the other guy's name?
Starting point is 00:25:44 Angelo, Dawkins, Montez Ford. Montef Ford. Yeah, man. Him, he's badass. And Ricochet, you had him in there, too? Oh, man. That's a weird combo. Bronstrom and Ricochet.
Starting point is 00:25:57 But, I mean, I love both of them, so I was all good with it. Otis, man He's just like a little brick house Yeah, I was upset. He didn't do the caterpillar. No, he didn't. I was hoping for it too.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Everyone was talking shit about his tights. They were yellow and you could see that He was sweating downstairs in the back. I mean, it happens. Yeah. But this match, I mean, it moved fast and everybody was all over the place at times. I didn't even know who the legal men were.
Starting point is 00:26:33 But I guess it was just a free for all. So it didn't matter who was there. But when they had everyone in the corner and they did the big, what the how many is five guy superplex or whatever the hell of it was. Montez-Forda up top and then ricochet jumping in. Just a big pile of dudes all over. That's why I love this. I love it when these especially when the high flyers are in there and they're just all over the ring in and out.
Starting point is 00:27:04 But yeah, man, I was I was super hyped during this match. At first I was kind of like, okay, but as it got going and I think my mom just got me more hyped up because she was going, oh my God, ooh. And everything, because she even says, you go, damn, wrestling is changed. But during my mom's era, it was the big brutes, all those guys. My dad said some name. I cannot remember the name. It sounded like a cool name because he was like, where's so-and-so?
Starting point is 00:27:36 He started naming all these names. I guess wrestlers when he was a kid. Because he grew up on the reservation in the boarding schools and I guess whatever wrestling company, not this way before WWF, they would come in to the res and put on shows for the, for the little boarding school kids and have wrestling. I was like, what?
Starting point is 00:28:01 He's like, yeah, they used to do it all the time. I was like, oh, man. So, but, yeah, this match was good. Braun Strowman, his big ass running around the ring, knocking everyone over. I just wanted Corey Graves to get involved somehow and get plowed. But, because he's killing me, man. Every match.
Starting point is 00:28:20 I mean, I know what he has. Can't mess up that suit of that hair. Uh-uh. I was, I was, I was. that was a risky move when Rickshay did that flip out of the ring close to the announce
Starting point is 00:28:35 tables. He landed perfectly because he landed on his feet but he put his hand right on the announce table because I thought he was going to hit it but he didn't. And I was happy that they put the Spanish
Starting point is 00:28:50 announce table back right where it goes. Because usually they have all the other ones for not and the gang all way up top. They didn't even give them any love this time. I remember they used to at least put them on camera
Starting point is 00:29:06 that whole line of tables from all the different countries. They don't do it. I don't care. But they brought these two guys. Those two guys, although the other dude, I can't remember. I can't remember the names, but one of them, it's a different guy now. But Street profits ended up pulling this one out. They let go of that one guy from the Spanish
Starting point is 00:29:26 announced team. the guy that was been there forever. Yeah, the older guy. I can't remember the name. Someone's probably yelling it. But yeah, the end of this match, man, when they were all flying in and out of the ring and everything, when Rickusay went to jump on Dawkins,
Starting point is 00:29:41 and then he brought the knees up. And then Montez Ford came flying it from the other side of the ring. Wow, Rickett was on Dawkins' knees. And then he landed on him. And then they rolled him over and pinned. pinned ricochet. I kind of scared, you know. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:30:01 weight to come down on on Dawkins' knees. Yeah, dude, I was like, dude, I thought he was going to like go live and just kind of laid straight. But no, man. But yeah, when those guys won, man,
Starting point is 00:30:15 they had the crowd hyped. Everybody was jumping up and down for them. So, yeah, man, this match was awesome. I really loved it. CBS Sports, they gave it an A-minus. All right. This next one. I was looking forward to this one.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Oh, I was watching something. Oh, this is Seth Rallens. Seth F. in Rollins and I can't remember what Logan Paul called himself, but Logan Paul. And his drink, what is it, Prime or whatever the hell it is?
Starting point is 00:30:49 I've never seen it anywhere. I saw it for the first time yesterday when I was in the store. I heard it's like, expensive. I didn't even see the price, but I looked at it because I was just trying to get some water. I mean, I was shout out to a liquid death. I always drink them. And I saw it. And it was like, I don't know why I didn't get it. I don't know. I want to try it is liquid death. I always, when I watch people's like podcast on YouTube, they always have it like sitting there.
Starting point is 00:31:21 Yeah. I'm liquid death. Any of you guys listening. You want to sponsor us. Hey, man, I drink it. if you want to send me cases of it I'll sit there and drink it and so like a you drink no it's water oh it's um one one just regular water and then there's a sparkling water and then now there's uh some flavors like it's not like like uh you can take like the man i think is mango or berry or whatever you can have that like the hint a taste of it it's not like so but i mean i like it i mean since I started drinking the sparkling water. I didn't know they had one.
Starting point is 00:32:01 There's a green can. I think it's lime. That's my favorite one. I always get that. The first it was just, there was a white can and a black can. I think the black can was sparkling. I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:32:16 Since that green one came out, that's the only one I drink. But it's just water. There's some, all kinds of shit written on it, but I never pay attention to it. But yeah, liquid death.
Starting point is 00:32:26 guys are listening hey man we'll uh we'll rock it for you guys you know but uh yeah i don't know what his prime drink is but when logan paul came out and then his uh mascot mascot came out too i was like yeah and uh who is who is this guy because when the ks i who is that he is a famous youtube or twitch streamer And he was, they boxed each other twice. Oh. And I think one was a draw. And then the second one, I think KSI won by decision.
Starting point is 00:33:11 And I think after, because there was a lot of shit talking for the buildup for those two fights. But now, now they're like friends. And I think partners in prime. Well, might as well, man. It's making you some money. Which is not that they're friends because he still talks shit about his brother, Jake. Because probably all just so work. Well, he wants to box him.
Starting point is 00:33:41 But this match was good, man. What did you think of this one? Yeah. I recently just came out. Logan Paul re-signed with the WWE. I think that's a smart move because every time I see him in the ring, I feel like he's just getting better and better. Super athletic.
Starting point is 00:34:00 I feel like he's getting better on the mic. And then you throw him in there with Seth Rollins. They went in there and they did what they needed to do. And I was actually, I was surprised at the outcome of the match because I thought they were going to kind of move Logan Paul up the ladder a little, as you could say. I hear what you're saying, but I don't think they could do that with Seth Rollins, man. He's too fresh, man. No, I wouldn't have bought it.
Starting point is 00:34:37 I mean, I love the whole buildup to the Tremania between these two. And I think it was a perfect match. I know some people didn't think so, but I thought so. I thought they both worked really good because they're both super energetic and they love to fly all over the place. They're both shit talkers. that's what I love the most what do you think about this new thing they're doing with Logan with the punch that he has like surgically implanted titanium you know how they always do when someone's got like a forearm or a punch or something there's always like some
Starting point is 00:35:19 injury they had where they had to put like a titanium plate and screws in there and now their fist is like devastating I don't think so my friends got all kinds of nuts and bolted him he was saying that's bullshit yeah because my wife has uh she has like pins and screws and stuff in her knee
Starting point is 00:35:40 and she ain't she ain't out there like me and people in the face I don't know it's just something just to say I guess I mean who knows I mean does he really have one in there I don't know But I loved what was going on between these two Because both of them were doing it
Starting point is 00:36:00 Man, they were just in and out of the ring Flying all over the place And yeah, Logan Paul, I didn't care for him And then when at first Because of just the YouTube stuff and everything I didn't know who he was So my son had to tell me Because he was like, once Logan Paul start wrestling
Starting point is 00:36:16 I was like, you know this guy And then he told me And well, okay, cool So but once he started wrestling I think he puts in 110% in what he's doing in the ring
Starting point is 00:36:30 he's not just there I mean you get some guys is just go in the ring and just don't know what the hell they're doing and end up getting hurt this guy gets hurt from doing stuff but I loved every time he he comes in the ring
Starting point is 00:36:46 when he came in at elimination chamber and ruined him for Seth Rounds I knew that I knew that was going to mania and that was awesome him in the royal rumble and all the other things the match he had with roman rains at the was it crown jewel or whatever that one was awesome but man he he does what he does man he hams it up to the camera talk shit and he gets in the ring and he does what he's supposed to do he had another big spot in this time i mean it didn't work out the way he wanted it too but
Starting point is 00:37:18 when it got revealed that kSI was the mascot And they tried to put, they tried to do the, the same thing he did, the reins, the, the, the frog splash to the outside to the table. And Seth got up real quick and put KSI on the table. That, that was perfectly timed. I knew some. I knew he had to get involved because he was there too long. Because he was just standing around. And then when, uh, he went, when Seth was on the table or on the, yeah, on the announced table.
Starting point is 00:37:52 and a little KSI guy was standing there hooting hollering, leaning in just a little too close. I can't remember right before Logan jumped. Did he like poor prime all over him? He looked up and took a drink, or he took a drink, he looked up, he spit it out, he spit it out. And then he went down, he crouched down to leap. And that's when, yeah, it was perfectly timed. As soon as he went down and he was already in the air with two-eight, Seth, Brown was pulled KSI onto the table and he just killed KSI for the rest of the match.
Starting point is 00:38:31 Yeah, because he didn't even move. He laid there the whole time. Even when after Seth won and the camera pulled back, you still see KSai laying there. I don't know if he got hurt because I don't know, me, he, I don't know if he does this type of stuff. He's a, he's pretty in shape guy. so but I don't know if he he probably wasn't they probably practiced it but it probably he didn't get the full effect of it until they did it right then and there yeah but that was awesome man I loved it man I was screaming when that was happening and my son he was sitting
Starting point is 00:39:13 there watching it too and he was laughing around okay here it is right now um Seth is laying on the table. KSI is trying to film himself talking shit. I'd like to see that video. And you see Seth Rons looking up and holding him. But right when Logan jumped, usually when you come down, this is what I've noticed. I wouldn't try this and I'm not a wrestler.
Starting point is 00:39:40 When wrestlers come down on someone from jumping up high, they usually take most of the impact on their knees or like their forearms or something. But it looked like he just came flat, straight on top of him. That's probably why he laid there the whole time. What? Oh, man. That one was hilarious. I thought that was it because when Seth grabbed him and threw him back in the ring.
Starting point is 00:40:03 And, uh, curb, no, he, uh, did he curb stop him? No, he gave him, um, a pedigree. And then he, uh, flipped. I thought that was it. I thought that was one, two, three, but Logan kicked out of it. And everybody went, ah, I did too. I went, ah, my mom was, she kept laughing at me. And remember my wife was like, this is how he is when he watches it at home.
Starting point is 00:40:25 I said, come on and don't root it for me. But yeah, that was probably the best part of this match. But the whole match was awesome. Yeah. I love it. They definitely delivered what they needed to. Yeah, so I was like, all right, man. It was getting two good matches in a row.
Starting point is 00:40:43 Sometimes it's rare. But that was an awesome match. Seth Rallens ended up pulling it out. The next match, I was. excited for him. I was but I don't know man it just didn't
Starting point is 00:40:58 didn't do it for me I love everyone all six women that are in this Becky Lynch the man big time bex or whatever you want to call her Lita oh
Starting point is 00:41:12 she's my favorite in the world I love her Tristratis still fine then damage control my girl Bailey with all that ass. Dakota Kai.
Starting point is 00:41:24 She's hell of skinny, but she's a little cutie. I love her. And, uh, E. Oh, it's,
Starting point is 00:41:29 it's Eosha. Yeah. I was like, okay, cool. I was mainly, mini for, for Lita.
Starting point is 00:41:37 Okay. Did she get a black eye before this or during this match? She had a black eye? Yeah. I don't remember. I just, that the only things that stood up to my memory of this match was,
Starting point is 00:41:52 I was a little pissed off at the outcome of the match. And then I don't know if you noticed the there was some kind of a botching a match or something with a pinfall that made me kind of think that damage control was supposed to win. Which? I don't know if it was at the end of it was at some point in the match.
Starting point is 00:42:21 like, Eo was like talking to the ref and then Dakota was pinnings. I forgot who she was pinning and then the referee ran over and started counting the three and oh, and I don't know if it was a botch because it kind of looked like Eo had this look on her face like, shit, I just fucked up.
Starting point is 00:42:46 I don't know if that was supposed to win at that point. Yeah, but I remember that point because I was like, okay, it's just been more than three. because he yeah he i'd say at least two seconds went by before he came running over and doing it so yeah i don't i don't know but i had a big big problem with the outcome of this match i just they didn't um trish lita back they didn't need to win this you know they didn't need to bury this this up-and-coming team and apparently from what i understand bailey's never won at russomanias she's like oh and seven and i'm not the big
Starting point is 00:43:22 fan of Bailey. I mean, I'm a fan of those cakes, but other than that, you could have this win. I, oh, I've always loved Bailey. I mean, the one that pissed me off the most is when it was a TLC in San Jose where she's from. Oh, they're not in her hometown. Oh, no, man, I was everybody was mad. The whole bullshit chance started and everything. And I was like, Even she had that look like, sorry, because when she came out, everybody, that place blew up. We all, ah, we were all screaming. This is when she had the little side pony. I'm a hugger thing still.
Starting point is 00:44:05 But even still, I was like, man, you guys did her dirty like that. But, I mean, she's from the Bay, so am I. So I got to represent for her. And, yeah, man, come on. I mean. she's been the yeah she's been the champ yeah but they they're not giving her no love when it comes of russomani at time and i i was not feeling trish in this match at all yeah i was like you got you're just a little too rusty i mean yeah like like like like you just said rusty
Starting point is 00:44:39 hasn't been it doesn't really do this a lot you know hasn't been back as much as lita but i mean yeah did you did you train for this at all because you look like you didn't. I mean, I don't know. Every time she got in there, I was just like, get out.
Starting point is 00:44:58 Tag someone else in. It was like everybody was waiting for her to come in because when she finally got tagged in, and everybody went, ah, and then she didn't do nothing. I mean, I was just waiting for Lita,
Starting point is 00:45:09 but I still just like cringe when she's in there. I just, I don't want to, I don't want her to get hurt. Her head is so close when she doesn't moon. salt to that. Yeah. That's why I'm like,
Starting point is 00:45:23 I mean, I've said this before on the show. I've told her like, you don't need to do this no more, man. You've got nothing to prove and you're number one and you'll always be number one in my book. I mean, of course I loved Wendy Rector and she was my number one when I was a kid, but when Lita came on the scene, she stole my heart. Wendy, you still got love for me as well as Mrs. Elizabeth. Rest and peace. Even fabulous Mullah and May Young and all them. I mean, they all have my, but I don't know, man.
Starting point is 00:45:55 Lita came on the scene and who, yeah, she's still, she's just, she's amazing. I mean, she's paid her dues, um, Japan, Mexico, everything. And I, yeah, I just love her, period. And I love her in the ring. She can do no wrong in my eyes. But Trish, Tristratis, beautiful. I love her. She was hot in the 90s.
Starting point is 00:46:18 But yeah, she just. I don't know, man. She was just, did they need her? No. But I guess you needed a third person. I don't know. They could have got someone up in the number. Have you seen what they're doing with her in Raw?
Starting point is 00:46:32 No. What are they doing now? Well, I'll wait until we get to the women's fatal four-way tag team match because it's kind of jumping the gun on people involved in that. So remind me when we get there. Right. But, I mean, overall, I was excited for this match. I mean, damage control, I mean, the three of them, they were doing what they're, especially Dakota and Eo.
Starting point is 00:46:59 I mean, they were all over the place, especially Eo. She was doing her thing. And Bailey, I mean, I love you, but yeah, she does what she does, too. But they did my girl leader dirty with the three, the three way super kick. They clearly missed all three. because leader was on her knees and I was like, no, just kick her to the body, not to the neck, area, head, anything.
Starting point is 00:47:24 But yeah, they missed. But yeah, the way that, I mean, the way this kind of ended, it was kind of like, oh, okay. I mean, it was what it was. I mean, it wasn't a bad match. I mean, CBS, they only gave it a C. And I can say that.
Starting point is 00:47:44 I give it a D. damage control should have won and you should have had bailey pinning trish or somebody that's not there all the time you know you don't have to pin becky i know they got to protect becky and charlotte and you know the the top two or three wrestlers but i don't know maybe maybe i am becoming a bailey fan maybe i just don't like the way they're They're kind of doing her right now. Maybe she needs to go join Mercedes Monet. The final move made me mad.
Starting point is 00:48:21 I thought she was going to beaily or belly to Bailey, whatever it is, off the, I was off the second rope. But then what they gave her the manhandle slam? The rock bottom, yeah. Okay. I was like, oh, really? At that point, I was like, this is over. And of course it was.
Starting point is 00:48:41 Becky pinned Bailey and that was it And the crowd loved it I was kind of like Okay But again my heart Goes to Lita and it was awesome to see her It was cool that she's one of the tag team
Starting point is 00:48:58 Uh Whipa bell holders Her and Becky Lynch But Trish for listening I don't know Do some more Training I mean we all saw what you could do
Starting point is 00:49:12 back in the day. Like I said, when I, when I talk about it later, I got some more shit to say about trash. She might do that thing. Russ was retiring, leave their boots in the middle of the ring or whatever. All right. This next one, I was excited for it. And it was a good match.
Starting point is 00:49:38 And it made me laugh. But Ray Mysterio, Hall of Fame. Ray Mysterio, taking on his son, Dominic Mysterio. The buildup to this, man, they've been building this up for a while. It's cool. I loved how, I mean, all the stuff during the holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, all that little debacle. Dominate going to prison quotes, the air quotes. Hey, man.
Starting point is 00:50:10 He did a hard time, man. give him his respect. You don't know what I went through when I was locked up. This is how we treated guys in the yard. I was like, oh. He had to get out of his bunk and he had to slap his cellmate in the face just to let him know who he was. And I loved all the stuff with his mom and his sister.
Starting point is 00:50:33 They were right there. I mean, all the buildup up to this. I knew they were going to get involved, of course, which they did. And I thought it was awesome. but Dominic's entrance into into this I was like what the hell is happening here
Starting point is 00:50:51 but shout out the bad bunny that's how you transport inmates they went all out with the little intro stuff I mean Dominic sitting in a prison cell the guards coming I said what are you doing back in prison? Why don't you just out but Okay, whatever.
Starting point is 00:51:15 It's how you transport dangerous criminals, man. He came in in a patty wagon with the police escort. I was like, ah. I like how you had a mask on, too, a luchador mask. Yeah. He's glad he didn't try to rip it this time. Handckel. Well, he couldn't rip it in the last time.
Starting point is 00:51:39 Don't make yourself look stupid twice. handcuffed and everything. I was like, oh, man, what's happening? Also, yeah, if you were there and everything, and it's just all part of the show, boys and girls. But, yeah, he came out with his, he had no love. I mean, nobody was cheering for him.
Starting point is 00:52:03 Everybody hates him. I wonder, is he going to just stay heel from here on out? Or is eventually he going to come back and try to reconcile with his father? It could be a sad day when mommy. He ain't leaving mommy. She's going to kick him to the boot. Kick him to the curb. You know, you know what's weird?
Starting point is 00:52:26 I was thinking about it when we were talking about recording this episode. Rea's real-life boyfriend, Buddy Matthews, when he was into WWE, the last storyline he was involved with was he was Dominic's sister's boyfriend. That's weird. Why they're doing it now? Well, I loved how he walked up to his mom and his sister. It was talking shit and everything. Good buildup.
Starting point is 00:53:02 Here comes Ray. I don't know my cars, but I assume this is an Apollo. Eddie's low rider Yeah Snoop was driving Came out to Eddie's music Ah When that when that happened
Starting point is 00:53:19 I was like Oh That was awesome There was a botch in this one Because when they switched over To Ray's music And he does his little thing When he runs to each side
Starting point is 00:53:30 And like pumps his fist There was no pyro And there was supposed to be pyro Yeah all right man he came out to edie's music why do you have the helmet uh i don't know it's like a judge dread helmet i think i don't know he likes to do his uh his ring a tire they're always like based on like superheroes or something like that and i think it has something to do with a somebody so kind of like iron man judge dread
Starting point is 00:54:07 looking helmet, but it was still cool though. He came out to his thing and everybody hyped up. And yeah, that long ass that long ass ram that he got to run down
Starting point is 00:54:23 because he came down and then when we just they just get right into it. I mean, this match was pretty good, man. I mean, they both of them are doing their thing. I mean, they're both. I mean, we all know Ray and we all love him. And he does what he does.
Starting point is 00:54:40 And Dominic, too, man. Of course, did he get to where he is because of his father? Of course. Of course he did. But, I mean, I thought, I mean, I remember when he first came on, when he was always just kind of hanging out on the side of the ring and everything. And I was like, all right. He's going to be in the ring at some point.
Starting point is 00:54:57 And they always do that. You bring him in. And then I said he's going to turn on his dad watch. And that's exactly what happened. then dumbass Corey Graves said something I meant to write it down he said something I was like all right with it when he said it
Starting point is 00:55:18 but his dumb ass was talking about his dumb ass was talking about Finn Baller and Damian Priest came out and oh mommy he didn't come out because she was still getting ready but Finn Ballard man he's badass I love him every time that he comes out
Starting point is 00:55:36 but they were trying to get involved in and everything uh but that part when uh at the end towards the end when um what are those three guys the um raised dudes um i know them all but i can't i can remember the LWO guys
Starting point is 00:55:55 uh what is their group something L Fantasmo or something I forgot what they're called I think they're the LWO now because they've been wearing the shirts coming out with Ray. Yeah, I'm trying to
Starting point is 00:56:13 see what the names were. I mean, I've heard of them and I know where they are, but they just... And Ray's WrestleMania mask and outfit was inspired by Daredevil and Deadpool. All right.
Starting point is 00:56:32 But that was no love, man. Dominic did the 619 on his dad. he had good for him and everything but Ray didn't he didn't sell it too good he kind of just like Phil
Starting point is 00:56:45 usually when somebody gets it they fly back how far but but I'll give it to Dominic man he does what he does man he still jumps up high he does he's got good for him
Starting point is 00:56:55 with his frog splashes and everything went up to his sister and his mom they were talking shit and and of course man sister standing holding a cup
Starting point is 00:57:09 and I was like, he took that through it in his sister's face. That made me laugh. I was looking for him to slap him again. So people ain't yelling at us still. The team that comes out with Ray as the LWO is, of course, Zalina Vega and Lengado del Fantasmo.
Starting point is 00:57:32 Well, oh, the, the ref was distracted and Damien Priest had his jacket or whatever and it was that that run a little plastic chain that was in his coat. You can clearly see
Starting point is 00:57:53 and usually the reps are good if something falls on the ring they kind of just grab it and kick it out of the way with that Damien Priest's jacket was there for like hell long but Domit's Dominic goes over to it and there's a chain in there. He wraps it around his fists. He's waiting for his dad to turn around. But then Bad Bunny comes running over and pulls it out of Dominic's hand.
Starting point is 00:58:19 And then he's distracted. And then Ray comes up and boots his son to the back. He falls under the ropes. Gives him a six or nine. He lays there. He climbs up to the top rope. Boom. Jump soft.
Starting point is 00:58:31 Frog splash. Boom. One, two, three. And that's it. Can't fuck with bad bunny. What was he in the bullet train, the wolf? He was badass in that. I wanted more of him.
Starting point is 00:58:45 Fucking, I need to get his funkel pop. Theo, he got it. He lucked out. He even got the chase with the Brad Pitt one. Yeah, if you guys haven't seen Bullet Train, check that shit out. That was hell of cool. I liked it. That was his name.
Starting point is 00:59:00 We need to do that one. Yeah. I need to buy it. I haven't got it yet. Camio, I won't ruin it for anybody With the one cameo Is this Is this about the sex stuff?
Starting point is 00:59:17 Oh man But yeah, this match was good man I mean they both They brought the house down both of them I loved how he brought His wife and his daughter Into the ring Didn't realize how tall his wife was
Starting point is 00:59:29 But daughter for a beautiful young woman Ma is wife as well she's way like a foot taller than him I think everybody is well she did have the big boots on so but it was cool I liked what was happening and I'm sure once they got backstage
Starting point is 00:59:48 they were all hugging and kissing and everything but yeah Finn Baller and Damian Priest had to carry Domain the count will lead into another pay-per-view of course it will but this was an awesome match though I did enjoy I liked what was
Starting point is 01:00:04 going on. I mean, Dominic, he did what he had to do and put on a good show. And Ray, he always puts on a good show. But I wasn't feeling that helmet, though, man. It looked weird. The thing that I love the most about Ray, I mean, they didn't do it this time. Maybe he did when he was leaving, but usually if there's little kids or whoever wearing the Luchidar masks and everything, he always goes up to him, touches their head. I don't know if he gives them a prayer or whatever, but I always love that. I always thought that was really cool. that it would do that. Dominic can do it on his way out.
Starting point is 01:00:38 Back to the paddy wagon. But the reason Mommy wasn't out there is because of the next match. SmackDown Women's Championship. Charlotte Flair, the Queen. Charlotte Flair taking on Mommy, Ria Ripley. Oh, I love Ria Ripley.
Starting point is 01:00:58 She's fucking just awesome. I was watching some old stuff from the Indies when she was all long and blonde hair. No tattoos, anything. I don't know. She didn't have any tattoos when she had the long blonde hair. But once she cut the hair and got all this and then all the tattoos and everything came,
Starting point is 01:01:25 who knows? Maybe she always wanted them and just didn't do it for her character when she was in the Indies. And hot-ass Jessica was out there, the ref. I love her. she's a big gal man i think she could get into ring and rough some of these chicks up i think she used to be a wrestler yeah i think she just wasn't working out for her and being a referee is so shout out to her yeah man she's always on tv and she's in these pay-per-views and everything so it's cool and i can't remember the uh the other one's name uh you know the blue of the black sister um
Starting point is 01:02:01 you should know her name you bring her up all the time i know i can't fuck her. Jessica's the only one thing. Keep me. We see who I love the most. Fuck, man. I can't remember her name. Someone's screaming it. But anyway, Charlotte, awesome. I love her.
Starting point is 01:02:20 But she looked a little manish in this one. I did not like her makeup. Yeah, it was, she was a little too dark. I was like, come on, you look orange. But, like, is your makeup running on your face? What's going on? who's are you talking about Charlotte or Rias
Starting point is 01:02:38 Rias? Oh, I don't know. That was a, it was a design. Someone said it was, her hair color. Her hair color coming down. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:02:49 I saw that. I just, I didn't like it. I just, I don't know. I've seen it. I've seen it look better in other paper views. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:03:01 I got it did, did without the little dark, excuse me. the dark lines coming down. But the black eyeliner and the black edge, yes. Yeah. Always have that. Keep all that.
Starting point is 01:03:14 And keep the choker. That's his mommy. Yeah. He kept that up. It was cool, man. I like this match. Of course, man. The whole buildup to it all and everything.
Starting point is 01:03:28 And we all wanted this. And it was good. I mean, she was fucking number one in the World Rumble. and won that thing all the way to the end, however long the real rumble was. But, man,
Starting point is 01:03:40 she was out there doing it, man, both of them were Charlotte, especially Charlotte, man. She, did she get where she was because of her father? In the beginning,
Starting point is 01:03:49 yes, but she has proven herself time and time again that she is, why she's the queen and everything. I don't know if she's taking a break, but she took a long break when she came back. Was I mad today? Immediately gave her a belt.
Starting point is 01:04:05 course. She's the queen. You got to keep her satisfied and everything. Real quick, it's, the referee's name is Aja Smith. Yes, her.
Starting point is 01:04:18 If you're listening, sorry. But this was good. This was a good match. I really, I mean, CBS Sports gave it in a, and they were beating the hell out of each other,
Starting point is 01:04:29 back and forth. That's what I loved. As tight as these little ring attire that they're wearing I'm surprised it is especially with these two the way they throw each other all over the place and beating the hell out of one another
Starting point is 01:04:43 obviously good fabric and whatever it is tight enough to not break but yeah this was a hard hitting match it started out a little slow but then as it started going through the match they were just
Starting point is 01:04:59 beating each other's ass and then we had you want to talk about the one spot where Charlotte got dropped on her face she got her kind of got knocked on her face twice but that last one is what really did it because it looked like it went straight to the face and what was it a belly to back
Starting point is 01:05:22 suplex yeah and I don't know she just either rea held on too long or she just didn't get the full flip or but no she got the full flip but she came down like right on her face and like it just scraped some skin off the bridge of her nose. I was a little bit worried because she kind of laid there for a second and a ref kind of you know how they drop down and talked to them.
Starting point is 01:05:50 She just kind of was like laying there. I was just like, oh shit. Yeah, I was like, uh, no, she, she got up and soldiered through the rest of it. I mean, because it wasn't, that was towards the end, but now they, they kept the party going but yeah but I mean yeah Charlotte came down on her face twice but I was happy
Starting point is 01:06:12 that she was all right first of all I mean skin skin will come back but yeah I mean I thought she when Charlotte did one of the super kicks to Ria it looks like she connected like hard because you see Ria's either she just sold it that good
Starting point is 01:06:29 but she did kind of fall to the ground and kind of shook it off and she kept checking like her mouth and her nose. I kind of always feel like Charlotte, when she does her little boot, big boot move, she kind of puts a little extra on it. It's just show, but I'm the queen bitch and booted her in the face.
Starting point is 01:06:51 I always wait for God, while I was hoping that one of these gals would push Jessica and then she would just lay them out. Because she looks like a big gal, like she put you down. Oh, you know, she knows how to do it. stunner, so.
Starting point is 01:07:08 Sammy Zane. Dude, that was at a house show, wasn't it? Yeah, it was at a house show. Yeah, man, come on. So technically it doesn't count because it's a house show. Get back in the ring. I think maybe during the women's role, row, well, she should come running
Starting point is 01:07:26 out. It rough and fools up. She hadn't had her team with leading, Becky, other than Trish. I ought to have bought that. more. I mean, again, Trish, we love you, but come on. Yeah, Charlotte's man, she was putting a little extra on those forearms when she had Ria on the ground. And who knows? Maybe they told her, look, man, just go for it. Well, let's give these guys what they want and really, really hit each other.
Starting point is 01:07:54 That's probably what they did. You two can take it. So, you know, lay into each other. Yeah, because they were hitting each other hard, especially with those forearms. So, but I liked what was happening. Of course, uh, Charlotte always got to do their signature,
Starting point is 01:08:10 climb to the top and the, and do the flip, not into the ring. Which she never lands on the person. Yeah. She flipped out and, yeah, I just barely hit Ria and Ria goes,
Starting point is 01:08:24 ah, selling it. All the good rolling around, but it was, it was a good match. I loved, uh, what was happening.
Starting point is 01:08:32 Because yeah, It started out slow, but as they got going, they were just beating the hell out of each other and everything. But yeah, when Charlotte did that flip, she like just landed on her feet and Ria just caught an arm, but she fell down and sold it. So, but once they got back in the ring and they were beating the hell out of each other, Ria looked like she was done for because Charlotte tried to get her in the figure eight. but Ria gave her the boot and then she comes back to Ria and misses her almost hits Jessica when but Charlotte's not paying attention
Starting point is 01:09:10 and Ria headbuts her puts her into the the fucks her move or finish her what the hell is it called the rip the riptide yeah she got once she uh because after um
Starting point is 01:09:28 Charlotte um fell over over into Jessica and then she got her on that ripped tied. She picked her up and then she ran over there and won two, but Charlotte kicked out really quick. So I thought that was it. But she was like, Ah,
Starting point is 01:09:45 and Ria was crying. Her mommy was crying around. And that's what I loved about these two, man, because they were going back and forth pinning each other. Even though because when Ria was trying to pick up Charlotte, Charlotte reached around, picked her up,
Starting point is 01:10:02 and then just pulled her down and slammed her down. and did a, pinned her really quick. And then when Rhea grabs her and locks her legs up and Charlotte is screaming, I was like, all right, Charlotte, if you're going to lose,
Starting point is 01:10:17 don't tap. Because I was kind of like, ah, come on, don't go out like this. Go out like a champ. So, but she basically just crawled over to the,
Starting point is 01:10:28 to the ropes. And just, I was like, come on. I hate, I mean, they always do it. just these two. Everyone does it, how they
Starting point is 01:10:36 get someone in some kind of submission and then they just crawl backwards or crawl forward to make sure they can grab the rope. I'm like, come on. But, yeah, once they did that and everything. And then Charlotte speared Ria and I thought
Starting point is 01:10:52 that was it too right there. I was about to be mad. But Ria and mommy kicked out of it. And then they just kept going some more back and forth. Yeah. And I don't know Charlotte's like constantly wanting to cry. but she always looked like she was going to cry. She always has a cry face.
Starting point is 01:11:12 I'm surprised none of her her extensions fell out. Because I can't remember one of those pay-per-views. They were all falling out. Yes. And I was telling myself, Charlotte loses. She's going to sit outside the ring. She's not going to get up and leave. She's going to sit there and cry.
Starting point is 01:11:29 She always has that face. Yep. Ria tried to. Rip tied Charlotte off the second rope. But I don't think either they were tired or she just couldn't get her hands locked around her. But she jumped off and slammed Charlotte Hellahard on her back and 1, 2, 3. And Mommy is the new Smackdown Women's Championship. Because I already know because we're like two weeks late, but hey, it's all right.
Starting point is 01:12:00 But I was excited and we both went. We were both for Ria. so it was good she had her WrestleMania moment she is a Grand Slam champion and I hope she holds on to this belt for a while she should
Starting point is 01:12:15 of course Charlotte's gonna want her rematch and do it and do it all over again but will it be as good as this match I don't know we'll see I don't want them to have a rematch because that just tells me they're going to give it back to Charlotte no I mean I think if they do
Starting point is 01:12:32 either Ria is just going to flat out win or something's going to happen, disqualification or whatever. But of course Charlotte's going to want it. We're going to see this match, this match up again. So we'll see. But I thought this should have been
Starting point is 01:12:47 the main event, but it wasn't. We got to do the surprise match that was before? Oh, wait. You're talking about Rio Ripley and Charlotte should have been the main event? Yeah, that should have been the main event. Well, the storyline for the main event was too
Starting point is 01:13:03 big for it not to be I don't know but this next one I wasn't I wasn't expected this one the Miz I was talking shit and then Pat McAfee's comes running out
Starting point is 01:13:19 what team did he play for let me see he played for the Colts 2009 to 2016 I mean it's cool I mean, Pat McAfee does what he does, and he has a good time doing it,
Starting point is 01:13:43 but he was out there, man, hamming it up and beating up Ms. in his however many $1,000 suit this day he was aware. This wasn't surprised. I mean, at first I was like, wait, what? But then when he came running out, I like Pat McAfee.
Starting point is 01:14:04 He does what he does. Like his music. Yeah. He has a good time. I mean, he hams it up. And he's, he's quick. I mean, he does what he does. Obviously, they sit there in practice and he, he does what he has to do.
Starting point is 01:14:18 He does. He's not like he's out there not knowing what's going on, everything. Because sometimes with these, especially these football players, I mean, look at, not the fridge. That was an embarrassment when he was out there back of the day. Or even when Shaq came in. It's a real, real, real. it wasn't that the Royal Role well it was uh Andre the Giants uh battle royal but Miz man he he does it man he sells every move and of course we knew he was going to get beat up
Starting point is 01:14:54 and dumb ass Cory Graves talking hell of shit and then George McGrittle kiddle gets involved I was like ah you didn't get excited 49 is no no When they showed him, I was like, ah. And then he gets involved. I was like, come on. This is the part where I got out of game, Corey, a head shake. Because when, when, um, uh, Kittle jumped in and, and, uh, I don't know what the, I don't know if he closed line, Ms.
Starting point is 01:15:31 I can't remember what he did. But when, because when Ms. walks up to him, he's on the outside of the ring and, uh, Ms. pushes him and then he tears off his little jumpsuit or whatever and then jumps into the ring. Where's security yet? Well, I was just saying they had to get it right this time because you remember the one
Starting point is 01:15:50 wrestling man he went grunk was trying to come in and security stopped him. Yeah. He's a part of it. Yeah, he jumps into, into action and close lines of Ms. Hella hard. Miz falls down.
Starting point is 01:16:06 And this is what I like what Corey said. He goes, why is he in there? Why is he getting involved? I hope the 49ers don't win any games this season. I was like, yeah, all right, Corey. I can agree with you with that. See, this is when they should have had,
Starting point is 01:16:19 this should have been Corey Graves' comeback match because it should have been talking shit between the Ms. and Pat McAfee. And then it should have turned into a tag team match with Corey Graves joining the Mizz. And then they would have, Pat would have been like, oh, who am I going to get to be my tag team partner?
Starting point is 01:16:40 And then that's when the camera should have panned over to kiddle. I was there, man. I've just been screaming and booing. Man, I hate that guy. But after, which one? Ms. got back up. Ms. got back up.
Starting point is 01:17:02 McAfee climbed up to the top of the post, not the top of rope. I thought he was going to jump off the top. top row, but he started balancing on the on the ring post because they got those little things around them. I don't know. Obviously, they're on their good because he was standing up their
Starting point is 01:17:17 top and then, yeah, he did a somersault off the top. Man, right straight on his back. Moons salt on his back. Oh, man. But he must have been so juice because he jumped right up and just kept on going out of it.
Starting point is 01:17:37 He felt it like. He was like, damn it, Ms. He was supposed to be there. He didn't. Miz had one arm to catch him, but McAfee was still in action. He threw Ms. back in the ring and who went to work on him. But yeah, man, he probably walked out of there later.
Starting point is 01:17:57 He went, huh, ha, ha. Because, yeah, he fell right on his back. But, yeah, Pat McAfee got him back in the ring, jumped in and kicked Miz in the face. and he falls down and uh, McRiddle's dumb ass jumps in the ring and they start doing the DX chop and hyping everyone up.
Starting point is 01:18:14 Man, where's security at? Come on. You guys aren't doing your job. They probably were 49er fans. So they're, uh, he's lucky to even wave no damn 40-9er flag in the ring.
Starting point is 01:18:26 He shouldn't have been, man. This is, uh, Rams and, uh, charges territory. Come on.
Starting point is 01:18:32 Uh, fucking 49ers fly. If you're a 49er fan, I'm sorry, man. Fucked 49. I never liked them. Shout out to Steve.
Starting point is 01:18:42 Yeah, shout out to brother Steve, man. And both Steve's. They're both $49. Fucked 49ers. So fuck the Raiders too, everyone. But where's WrestleMania in me next year? Philadelphia. All right.
Starting point is 01:18:59 City of your brotherly love. What I like to go? Yeah, I would. But never been to Philly. But all right. On to the main event. the undisputed tag team championship match, the Uso's Jimmy and Jay taking on Sammy Zane and Kevin Owens.
Starting point is 01:19:19 The buildup to this one was good as well. I mean, the whole time Sammy Zane was with the bloodline and all that. I was like, why? But as it went on, I was in for it. I was there for it and I loved it.
Starting point is 01:19:33 And of course we knew that I was going to come to an end. And it was awesome when K. came running out to help him back in the day. So I didn't think that was going to lead up to WrestleMania, but obviously it was good because this match was awesome. CBS Plus, CBS Sports gave it an A plus. I'm cool. I'm with that.
Starting point is 01:19:57 I mean, one of my favorites match of the night, but this was still an amazing match. I mean, these guys do what they do. I mean, Sammy Zane, love them or hate. him I can do with him or without him. I wish you'd cut that hair because I don't like that wild, wild hobo look. I love that he's wrestling now. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:22 He's, I mean, he's good as the comic relief and all that. And if you want him to be at heel, he can do that too. But I like that he's wrestling now. He's not like the butt of the joker. Just there. Jobber anymore. Yeah. Yeah, man, I mean, because yeah, I mean,
Starting point is 01:20:41 I mean, even the last few matches that he's had, man, he's been out there doing it. But this one, man, yeah, man, they brought the house down with this one. So, I mean, now thinking about it, I'm talking about it, yeah, I could see this is a main event. But I was more excited for Charlotte and Mommy and everything. But Jimmy and Jay, we all know, we love them.
Starting point is 01:21:05 be at face, but this heel run that they've been doing for years now, awesome. I love it. The whole bloodline thing has been amazing. So it's, it's, it's,
Starting point is 01:21:17 it's cool. Is that they going to bring in another brother? Because I've been seeing news about him. I think his name is Jacob Fatu. I think he wrestles for MLW. And there's been, there's been talks of bringing him
Starting point is 01:21:34 in the WWE. Might as well. He's also Dynasty. He's also a pretty big guy too. Yeah. Where was solo? How come he wasn't there? I don't know when that was.
Starting point is 01:21:50 He was by his post with the tribal chief. They were saving him for the next night. But Sammy Zane was getting the shit kicked out of this whole match.
Starting point is 01:22:04 Oh, man. I mean, he does what he does, man. And he does it well and just getting beat up and just ragdolling all over the ring. I mean, Kevin Owens, man, he got beat up too. But no one got his roughed up like Sammy Zane did because the Uso's were, they were going to work on him every time they got him in the corner. K.L. was just on the other side screaming. I always love that he comes up with his own.
Starting point is 01:22:34 different shirts during WrestleMania. So, but he's, he's badass. You guys love him. But, yeah, overall, this match was,
Starting point is 01:22:44 was fucking awesome. I loved it. It went on quite a while, too, because I remember, okay, this is the main event. I kept looking at the time.
Starting point is 01:22:52 We're like, damn, man, they're going on a hill alone. I think almost half an hour. Yeah. But it was well worth the wait if you guys were there or watching. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:02 Because, yeah, they, they went hard. Yeah, they had a story to tell And they told it well Especially you brought up the buildup to it I thought it was great The whole thing with Jay
Starting point is 01:23:15 Yeah Was he still with the bloodline And the whole Hugging Sammy on Raw And then as soon as Sammy turned around Super kicked him And screaming Did you think I was going to leave my brother
Starting point is 01:23:29 I thought that was like That was an excellent heel move on and Jay and just kind of getting the crowd more with with Sammy and then of course the hug with Kevin and Sammy just kind of cemented the you know that they're gonna go against the bloodline so I thought the build up where this was excellent yeah like it like I said Sammy Zane was was getting the shit beat out of him I mean there was times when they were super kicking him left and right kicks. I mean, not to the body, to the head.
Starting point is 01:24:08 Each time. And he's just an awesome performer and an awesome seller because he sold every time he got hurt. Like he was hell of dazed, could barely walk. And man, they were just super kicking in back and forth. K.O. was laying on the outside of the ring all beat up. But I love how he always come jumping in to save him. but when they were super kicking Kevin Owens looks like they were
Starting point is 01:24:37 kind of holding back and who knows maybe Samizade said F it man go for it because it looked like they were stiff-legged him every single time but I guess yeah they had to they had to sell them more with him for everything that he's done
Starting point is 01:24:54 to the bloodline of the tribal chief with his hobo hair I love it At least I'm finally starting to realize who Jimmy and Jay are. Jimmy is a guy with a long hair and the braids. And Jay is the one little short mullet. Yeah. Who was the one that was hurt the longest?
Starting point is 01:25:15 Was it Jimmy or Jay? Jimmy. Okay. And Jimmy's also married to. Yep. What the fuck is her name now? Trinity. Trinity Fatu.
Starting point is 01:25:26 That's her name. Where is she at? They haven't said yet, but. Everybody's assuming that she changed her name to Trinity. It's not Naomi that she's not with WWE no more. Do you think they'll ever bring her back? They could. I don't think they have to.
Starting point is 01:25:49 I think she should try some other promotions because we talked about Mercedes. Sasha Banks, she's killing it in New Japan. so, you know, try some other promotions out. Some people are mad that they're pushing her so hard in near Japan. I mean, there's a lot, a lot of good talent out there if you guys aren't watching it. But she's a big. She's a name. Overheel.
Starting point is 01:26:23 Yeah, she's a big name. So, of course, they're going to push her more. We don't know how long she's going to live out there and do that. but I'm sure she's going to ride that trend to the end. They're already talking about her showing up in AEW with the next forbidden door pay-per-view. So I think she's going to kind of move around. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:46 Or she's acting now, so. I don't know if she's going to come back to WWE. I mean, if she does, cool. I mean, I'm with it, but I don't know. I think she left them bad blood her and Naomi. so we'll see. I don't think she should. What's her name came back?
Starting point is 01:27:05 Chelsea Green. Yeah. And they've just been dogging the shit out of her since she came back. Well, she's getting that check, I guess. I don't know. But, yeah, man. I thought they were going to, I thought K.O. was going to slam one of the Uso's on the tables, but they kind of turned the tables on him.
Starting point is 01:27:29 I think he had Jimmy up there and then Jay came running in and then they double teamed him and picked him up and slammed him onto the main announced table because he laid there for a while while all that was happening on the outside of the ring and Sammy Zane was still dazed
Starting point is 01:27:51 rolling around trying to stand up in the ring So when he finally gets up, he could barely stand, didn't even know where the hell was going on. That's when they picked him up and did the 1D. I was like, really?
Starting point is 01:28:11 But that cool. I do like that move no matter who does it. Which I thought was it for a second, but Sammy kicked out. That's what I love about him now. Because every time he kicks out, of it he's still like he lays laying off to the side sazzing out oh man so he sells it he sells it good i think the announce team was helping it out he's just he's just kicking out of instinct he
Starting point is 01:28:41 doesn't know what he's doing yeah because when keel was still laying on the outside and sammy was in the ring just getting slapped around and just he just barely standing in the quarters and everything. They're just slapping this shit out of him. I was hoping someone else was going to come running in and try to either help the Uso's or help Sammy Zane and Kevin Owens. But once Sammy turned it on,
Starting point is 01:29:15 he finally was able to crawl over, and then Kevin Owens came running in and started roughing everyone up with the pop-up power bombs. I love how they just jump up and help them. Right into his arms. I love all that shit. But yeah, those guys are running and starting to take you to take the Uso's out. K.O. with the stunner.
Starting point is 01:29:39 Boom. Gets Jimmy. I know that's Jay. And one, no, he kicked out of that one. I thought that was it. I don't remember how it exactly ended. I'm just fast-forward into it all. I think one of them gets a stunner and then Sammy gives one of them the Huluva kick.
Starting point is 01:29:56 I think more than once. I'm trying to get to the end to see how it ended. But, I mean, they had K.O. and Sammy Zane did. They did pull it out at the end. And they got both belts. But, all right, we're at the end now. Sammy Zane's got Jay and, I don't know, he was kissing him.
Starting point is 01:30:20 He throws Jay in the corner and then he runs and gives him that kick. And then he goes down. And then he kind of drags him. to the middle of the ring. Jimmy tries to run in, but then K.O. runs in, stuns him, and he falls out of the ring. Sammy Zane puts him back in the corner.
Starting point is 01:30:37 It goes back to the other corner. Then he's juicing up. The crowd is hyped. Everyone's on their feet, hooting and hollering. Then he runs and, he clearly missed him. But Jay falls down,
Starting point is 01:30:51 and then one, two, three. And that's the end of the match. But they both got, Sammy Zane and Kevin Owen's got both belts so now they're hooting and hollering and everything but yeah but overall
Starting point is 01:31:05 man this this match was good because in the big ups to Sammy Zane for taking all that abuse through the whole match he wasn't all beat up in red like he was in one of those last ones
Starting point is 01:31:20 when they just beat the hell out of him and he was all he had that big um it was like a scratch or whatever on his chest i remember that but but that's the end of uh the first night and everything but do you think at some point these two are going to turn on each other in battle again it's you can almost plan on it Kevin Keo's gonna turn on him
Starting point is 01:31:47 uh it's not going to be anytime soon there was no uh big matches or dark matches or anything before this was it it seems like they stopped doing that no they did the the Andre de giant battle memorial battle royal whatever they call it they did it on smackdown and uh I guess Bobby lashley won I guess that's what he gets
Starting point is 01:32:17 for not being part of WrestleMania I know how come they didn't throw him in there somehow. I don't know. They were teasing him and Bray Wyatt because Bray Wyatt did whatever.
Starting point is 01:32:31 He did like a promo talking about Bobby and whoever he was wrestling at the time. Bobby and Brock when they wrestled, he said the winner
Starting point is 01:32:41 that he was basically coming for. And we didn't get Bray Wyatt either. So I mean, yeah, I mean, they bring him back
Starting point is 01:32:53 and then what do they put them put them in a mountain dew night light match or black light match that was terrible I don't know what they want just to have him wrestle stop doing these gimmick matches
Starting point is 01:33:11 yeah just don't don't do any of that stupid shit I mean that's all they do man they I mean he isn't one of those guys you bring back and then just waste them. I mean, he at least does what he does in the ring, but I don't know.
Starting point is 01:33:30 We're not running the show, everyone. We're just watching and talking shit about it. But all right, everyone, that is, that was the first night of wrestling at 39. And we could go on and give you a 10-hour show, but we're going to cut it and we'll come back with another one. Yeah. But other than that, man, it was an awesome match.
Starting point is 01:33:53 me, I thought this was the best night of WrestleMania. And people are talking about WrestleMania is to go back to just one WrestleMania Sunday. I think so. Hey, I do like the two nights, but yeah, it's just, it's not the same anymore. Other than they just want, they want to make that money.
Starting point is 01:34:16 People are saying that because of the pandemic, they want to make all their money back. But from what we all read, wwee did good and made all kinds of money during all lockdown and everything yeah the reason why they're not going to have one night is because russamia 39 sold out two nights at over 80,000 per night so 80,000 people per night so it's a lot of money yeah man you're gonna get a I got to feed the horse So I'm okay with it
Starting point is 01:34:54 I mean I would like to I like to have been there But I went out of town everyone And that that was kind of a last minute decision I had no idea I was going out of town My wife just came in oh We're going to Arizona on For spring break and I was like I would have been really pissed
Starting point is 01:35:16 If I would have been really pissed if I would have a ball my WrestleMania ticket because I was waiting for my I was waiting for my buddy to buy to buy his because when he bought him he was like hey man do you want me to buy yours and I said if he would have bought him like the week before I don't know hell yeah and I would have been going
Starting point is 01:35:32 but he bought it like that day I found out I was going to Arizona I was like no man because he was texting me like oh man I was like I haven't watched it yet he was like oh man man He even called me at one point.
Starting point is 01:35:49 I could barely hear him. All I heard was a crowd. He was like, I just hung up. I was getting bad. But again, shout out to my mom. She sat there and watched wrestling with us. And it was good.
Starting point is 01:36:05 I mean, that was, I couldn't have got that going to WrestleMania. But it was fun sitting there listening to my mom that hasn't watched wrestling in years. Since I was before, I was born. Because she would.
Starting point is 01:36:19 They still have wrestling? I was like, what? I said, they'll always have wrestling. Even after when we're gone, wrestling is going to be there. She just laughed. But, all right, everyone, that was Saturday for night won for WrestleMania 39. But go to the horror returns.com to check out everything.
