<v Speaker 1>I am back with you on a Monday night. It

<v Speaker 1>is another Monday Night Raw review, a little bit earlier

<v Speaker 1>than usual. Very nice. This show was taped on Friday.

<v Speaker 1>They taped Raw and SmackDown. SmackDown is already in the

<v Speaker 1>can for this coming Friday. But they taped this show

<v Speaker 1>a very economical hour and 40 minutes. I was able

<v Speaker 1>to blow through Monday Night Raw, which is good because

<v Speaker 1>there was a lot of wrestling this weekend between AEW, NXT,

<v Speaker 1>and AAA. And so a lot of people, a lot

<v Speaker 1>of you maybe wrestled out. We could do with a

<v Speaker 1>very simple show here. All the commercial breaks were cut out,

<v Speaker 1>and I was in and out of Monday Night Raw.

<v Speaker 1>And it was not a show that was not without

<v Speaker 1>its newsworthy moments. We have a new number one contender.

<v Speaker 1>This was the finals, the big finale of the Lucha

<v Speaker 1>tournament that has been carrying on now for several weeks,

<v Speaker 1>to crown a number one contender for Roman Reigns in

<v Speaker 1>Mexico City. Big Raw coming up September 14th. Who would

<v Speaker 1>be challenging for the World Heavyweight Championships? Would it be

<v Speaker 1>Penta or would it be Ray Phoenix? For the first

<v Speaker 1>time in WWE, we had the brothers go one-on-one in

<v Speaker 1>the main event. This is the match I was looking

<v Speaker 1>forward to for the entire tournament, hoping that they would

<v Speaker 1>have enough sense to put these two together in the finals,

<v Speaker 1>which they did. And to no one's surprise, they went

<v Speaker 1>out there and they had a great fucking main event.

<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you are a fan of Phoenix

<v Speaker 1>and or Penta. I don't know why you would expect

<v Speaker 1>anything different. So a fantastic match they had, and also

<v Speaker 1>to the surprise of very likely nobody in this chat,

<v Speaker 1>Penta is going to Mexico City. He is going to

<v Speaker 1>be challenging Roman Reigns for the championship. We got a

<v Speaker 1>little face-off between the two here to close out the show.

<v Speaker 1>We had another number one contender crowned as well for

<v Speaker 1>Mexico City. It wasn't just the World Heavyweight Championship, but

<v Speaker 1>also the Men's Intercontinental Championship, because Chad Gable said, He

<v Speaker 1>wanted to defend this title in Mexico because the Mexican

<v Speaker 1>people were so good to him. All those months, all

<v Speaker 1>the Grande Americano stuff. He wants to show up there.

<v Speaker 1>He wants to be a fighting champion. He wants to

<v Speaker 1>basically pad his legacy. And we had a match tonight

<v Speaker 1>between Ethan Page and Dragon Lee. And now we know

<v Speaker 1>who the number one contender for Chad Gable's title is

<v Speaker 1>going to be. He'll be defending that championship on September

<v Speaker 1>14th as well. Royce Keyes in OTM. When Raw ended

<v Speaker 1>last Monday, they were wreaking havoc. This was the first

<v Speaker 1>time that we saw them. OTM, Bronco Nima, Lucian Price

<v Speaker 1>called up from NXT. They were beating the shit out

<v Speaker 1>of everybody. They were beating up the Bloodline. They were

<v Speaker 1>beating up Solo Sakoa. They were beating up LA Knight.

<v Speaker 1>And that's how Raw went off the air last week. Tonight,

<v Speaker 1>we didn't hear from them, but, well, I guess we

<v Speaker 1>kind of did hear from them, just not verbally. They

<v Speaker 1>made their presence felt in the opening segment. They were

<v Speaker 1>wreaking all kinds of Havoc and Mayhem at the opening there.

<v Speaker 1>We never saw them again for the rest of the show,

<v Speaker 1>but they replayed what happened at the beginning, an all-out

<v Speaker 1>backstage assault, which we'll get into here momentarily. And so

<v Speaker 1>they replayed it three or four different times. The bloodline,

<v Speaker 1>and really the Usos, not the entirety of the bloodline,

<v Speaker 1>but the Usos are in a local medical facility, licking

<v Speaker 1>their wounds and nursing their injuries. We don't know what

<v Speaker 1>their status is. But this is their way of really

<v Speaker 1>trying to get these three guys over, which is very

<v Speaker 1>important here because you've just introduced this new trio. What

<v Speaker 1>makes them so special? What makes them different? Right? Well,

<v Speaker 1>how do you establish that? By going after the biggest

<v Speaker 1>group that you can on Monday nights and beating the

<v Speaker 1>fucking piss out of them. That's what you do. It's

<v Speaker 1>only been two weeks, but so far so good. At

<v Speaker 1>some point, we'll have to get some sort of mission

<v Speaker 1>statement from them and we'll have to You know, know

<v Speaker 1>why it is that they're here and, you know, what

<v Speaker 1>their goals are and all that. And there's time for that.

<v Speaker 1>But I thought that what they did tonight was a

<v Speaker 1>strong follow-up. And it was a different kind of open

<v Speaker 1>to the show. Which is good, right? Because most of

<v Speaker 1>the time we get the same boring fucking open to

<v Speaker 1>these shows. It's good to mix it up and shake

<v Speaker 1>things up a little bit every now and then. Outside

<v Speaker 1>of everything I just mentioned, that was it. The rest

<v Speaker 1>of this show is a big fat pile of nothing.

<v Speaker 1>Which should make it very easy to get through the

<v Speaker 1>entire thing here. This is your Monday Night Raw review.

<v Speaker 1>We are closing out the month of August. It is

<v Speaker 1>August 31st, 2026. I am the Solomon. Yes. The blur line. Oh,

<v Speaker 1>we're going to talk about that here in a second.

<v Speaker 1>We are going to talk about that. Thank you guys

<v Speaker 1>for hanging out with me last night. We went three

<v Speaker 1>hours talking about AEW's biggest pay-per-view of the year. This

<v Speaker 1>is their WrestleMania, the big all-in show from Wembley Stadium.

<v Speaker 1>I know we're climbing towards 40,000 views and counting if

<v Speaker 1>we're not already there. But thank you for showing up

<v Speaker 1>and hanging out with me last night. We had a

<v Speaker 1>lot of fun. One of the best shows all year,

<v Speaker 1>if not the best. It is certainly one of the

<v Speaker 1>top two. And I had a lot of fun talking

<v Speaker 1>about that. I'll talk more about that with some other

<v Speaker 1>news as well on the Uncrowned Wrestling Show tomorrow. Because

<v Speaker 1>we have some fallout from that show. But that's tomorrow.

<v Speaker 1>Right now, let's talk about Monday Night Raw. But first,

<v Speaker 1>I need you to do me a favor. I need

<v Speaker 1>you to hit me with the subscribe. I need you

<v Speaker 1>to hit me with the like. And I'm going to

<v Speaker 1>bring up the wheel here. We're going to find out

<v Speaker 1>how many likes we need if we are to do

<v Speaker 1>Be The Booker tonight. And so we will know here

<v Speaker 1>in just a moment. Let's see if... I can bring

<v Speaker 1>this up. I can indeed. Don't you love it when

<v Speaker 1>it works? Yes. Yes. I see you in the chat. $ 350. No, $ 390.

<v Speaker 1>The hell's wrong with me? $ 390 is the goal for tonight. Now, again,

<v Speaker 1>I went live. I said, look. I'm ready to go

<v Speaker 1>live now. Normally I go live at 11. I try

<v Speaker 1>to keep it consistent so people don't show up like,

<v Speaker 1>what the fuck? You went live? What are you doing

<v Speaker 1>going live early? But there was no reason to wait.

<v Speaker 1>So we may not have some of the usuals here

<v Speaker 1>with us. I don't even know if we're going to

<v Speaker 1>necessarily hit the goal tonight. But that is at least

<v Speaker 1>a manageable number. So 390. If we are going to

<v Speaker 1>do Be The Booker, I will leave that up to

<v Speaker 1>you guys. Let's get into this show here. Shall we actually,

<v Speaker 1>let me just mention right off the bat here. We

<v Speaker 1>have tonight is the raw post show. Of course, that's

<v Speaker 1>why you're here Wednesday. I'll be here for the dynamite

<v Speaker 1>post show, which is the fallout from all in Friday.

<v Speaker 1>I will not be here because I will be in LA.

<v Speaker 1>So the smack, anything important that happens on SmackDown, we'll

<v Speaker 1>talk about that on the sound off this weekend. Again,

<v Speaker 1>it's a tape show. It's going to be in the

<v Speaker 1>can for about a week. I don't suspect that the

<v Speaker 1>final SmackDown before Sunday night's main event is going to be,

<v Speaker 1>you know, too newsworthy. But, again, anything that happens there

<v Speaker 1>that is worth discussing, we will talk about on the

<v Speaker 1>Sound Off this Sunday. Now, the show started out a

<v Speaker 1>little bit differently than it normally does. And what I

<v Speaker 1>meant by that was, after the initial highlights of, you know,

<v Speaker 1>what had gone down previously, we had a shot of

<v Speaker 1>the parking lot. parking lot area. Where were they? In Cleveland?

<v Speaker 1>I think they were in Cleveland. So we go to

<v Speaker 1>the parking lot and we see an SUV. We see

<v Speaker 1>Royce Keys. And we see Bronco Nima. And we see

<v Speaker 1>Lucian Price. The way we ended Raw last week, we

<v Speaker 1>now open Raw the following week. And they got out

<v Speaker 1>of this SUV. And they were beating the shit out

<v Speaker 1>of Jimmy and Jey Uso. Just... Beating the crap out

<v Speaker 1>of them. So we see that one of the Usos,

<v Speaker 1>I think it was Jay. Jay Uso is clearly bleeding

<v Speaker 1>from the face. However, there was a very bizarre thing

<v Speaker 1>that I guess Netflix did here. They were blurring out

<v Speaker 1>Jay's face. They were kind of, they were digitizing it

<v Speaker 1>in a very weird way. Where just a portion of

<v Speaker 1>his face was blurred out. He looked basically like Braun

<v Speaker 1>Breaker looked, I guess, when he was in that cage

<v Speaker 1>match with Seth Rollins, and he was bleeding, and what

<v Speaker 1>did they do? They blurred out his face. Only this,

<v Speaker 1>we're watching this show here in real time. They did

<v Speaker 1>that on the replay after the fact. So they have

<v Speaker 1>this weird, you know, again, censoring of his face, and

<v Speaker 1>then they did with Jimmy as well, because Jimmy was

<v Speaker 1>also bleeding, and then we got part of his body

<v Speaker 1>was censored, but like sometimes he would move and we

<v Speaker 1>would see a little bit of blood. It was so

<v Speaker 1>fucking weird. Like I'm looking at Jay laying on the

<v Speaker 1>ground with this blur over his face and you see

<v Speaker 1>like a little shade of red and you would think

<v Speaker 1>the guy got shot in the face. You would think

<v Speaker 1>that he took a shot to the face, a bullet

<v Speaker 1>right through the fucking brain. I'm like, what are we

<v Speaker 1>doing here? The show just started. You're on Netflix and

<v Speaker 1>And it's not even, I mean, again, you're not showing

<v Speaker 1>anything that is, I think, terribly over the top. But

<v Speaker 1>our virgin eyes cannot see the blood on Jay Uso's face.

<v Speaker 1>So that was very distracting and very, very strange. But

<v Speaker 1>they were ganging up on Jimmy and they slammed him

<v Speaker 1>onto the windshield of another car. And they're screaming and

<v Speaker 1>just everyone's kind of losing their minds. And then Jacob

<v Speaker 1>Fatu showed up. And he was very pissed off, and

<v Speaker 1>he had a lead pipe in his hand. Now, Jacob Fah, too,

<v Speaker 1>normally when he's pissed off is scary enough. Now you

<v Speaker 1>put a pipe in his hand, and yeah. Keys and OTM,

<v Speaker 1>they hightailed it at that point. point. And there was

<v Speaker 1>nothing that Jacob could do. Officials came in. Adam Pierce

<v Speaker 1>was there calling for medics and calling for help. And

<v Speaker 1>Jacob had nowhere to put all of this rage that

<v Speaker 1>he had. Yes, the pixelated face. That was the word

<v Speaker 1>I was looking for. Pixelated. So that was how Raw opened. Now,

<v Speaker 1>despite the pixelation and how goofy and stupid it all,

<v Speaker 1>and it is very stupid, and they have their reasons

<v Speaker 1>for doing it. Again, when it comes to international and

<v Speaker 1>where this show airs, there has to be a better way. Again,

<v Speaker 1>in the big picture, it's not that big of a deal,

<v Speaker 1>but I laugh at the goofiness of it. That aside,

<v Speaker 1>I like this. I liked it. And we weren't done yet,

<v Speaker 1>by the way. We were going right into the Women's

<v Speaker 1>Intercontinental Championship match, but we were not yet done with

<v Speaker 1>all of this mayhem here. So, as they're going into

<v Speaker 1>this match between Raquel Rodriguez and Sol Ruka, this is

<v Speaker 1>a rematch for the Women's IC title. And we get

<v Speaker 1>the big title match intros from Mark Nash. Before the

<v Speaker 1>match could begin, we hear Jacob Fatu's voice. And I'm

<v Speaker 1>looking around, I don't see Jacob, and then, ah, there

<v Speaker 1>he is. He shows up at ringside, and he's very upset.

<v Speaker 1>And he climbs up on top of the announce desk.

<v Speaker 1>He called Keyes and OTM a bunch of bitch asses.

<v Speaker 1>He said that he was going to go to war

<v Speaker 1>with them after what they did to his family. You

<v Speaker 1>want a war with us? Well then, line it all

<v Speaker 1>up because I'm about to dog walk all three of

<v Speaker 1>you motherfuckers. And they censored it, of course. But if

<v Speaker 1>you must hear him cuss, there is fan video on

<v Speaker 1>social media that people recorded on their phones last week

<v Speaker 1>and you can hear him say the actual word. So

<v Speaker 1>then he tossed around some furniture. He left through the crowd.

<v Speaker 1>I like this. It's different. It's different. It's just, it's

<v Speaker 1>a hot start to the show that is out of

<v Speaker 1>the ordinary. It's not something you could do every single

<v Speaker 1>week because then that becomes the norm. But because we

<v Speaker 1>don't usually see an angle like this play out, all

<v Speaker 1>this just chaos and we don't know what's going on

<v Speaker 1>and who's going to be coming out next and this

<v Speaker 1>guy's pissed and this guy wants to kill him and

<v Speaker 1>he's cussing and there's blood and all this stuff. I

<v Speaker 1>liked it. Different is good. WWE doesn't like to typically

<v Speaker 1>venture out of their comfort zone when it comes to

<v Speaker 1>the way they format these shows, the way they open,

<v Speaker 1>the way they close, the way you go into a

<v Speaker 1>commercial break, the way you come out of a commercial break.

<v Speaker 1>They have their formula. That's what works for them. That's

<v Speaker 1>what they're comfortable with. And they very rarely will deviate

<v Speaker 1>from that. So when they do, I like it. It

<v Speaker 1>stands out more. So good job on that. And good

<v Speaker 1>job on trying to get this over as some sort

<v Speaker 1>of gang war. Like the battle lines are being drawn. Now,

<v Speaker 1>what's weird about it, of course, is that we effectively

<v Speaker 1>have two heel groups here. So as this plays out

<v Speaker 1>in the weeks and months to come, we'll get a

<v Speaker 1>better sense of what the heel and face alignment is

<v Speaker 1>going to be, because ideally you would want the audience

<v Speaker 1>to kind of choose which side they want to get behind.

<v Speaker 1>Maybe they go more in a shades of gray type

<v Speaker 1>of direction. The bloodline was pretty firmly established a few

<v Speaker 1>weeks ago as a heel group, right? That night that

<v Speaker 1>solo spiked Roman in the throat. And now it's like

<v Speaker 1>the pendulum is sort of swinging the other way where

<v Speaker 1>the bloodline now for the last two weeks, at least

<v Speaker 1>in terms of the Usos, have been knocked back on

<v Speaker 1>their heels. They've been left laying by this new gang

<v Speaker 1>on the show. And I don't know. I just get

<v Speaker 1>the sense that when we kind of get a better

<v Speaker 1>picture of where we're going with this, the bloodline may

<v Speaker 1>be shifting back to the baby face category. Even though

<v Speaker 1>I said last week, you know, Royce Keyes got just

<v Speaker 1>destroyed weeks and weeks ago on this show. I don't

<v Speaker 1>blame him for wanting to go out and find some

<v Speaker 1>friends to help watch his back. I don't blame him

<v Speaker 1>for being pissed off that nobody came out to help

<v Speaker 1>him and to rescue him. To me, they're the baby faces.

<v Speaker 1>But I'm sure that's not what they're supposed to be

<v Speaker 1>or what they're going to end up being. So Roxanne Perez,

<v Speaker 1>late in this match here between Raquel and Soul, Roxanne

<v Speaker 1>ran out to help Rodriguez. Soul ended up dropping both

<v Speaker 1>of them with a corkscrew plancha out to the floor.

<v Speaker 1>Liv Morgan, the Women's World Champion, she ran out at

<v Speaker 1>this point to distract the referee. In the ring, Soul

<v Speaker 1>was about to go for the Soul Snatcher to finish

<v Speaker 1>things off, but as she jumped into the corner, Lyra Valkyria,

<v Speaker 1>greasy Lyra Valkyria, showed up. who looks like she's been

<v Speaker 1>living under a bridge. She shows up. She takes a

<v Speaker 1>shot at Sol. This allowed Rodriguez to pick Sol up

<v Speaker 1>for the Tejana bomb. She dropped her, she stacked her,

<v Speaker 1>and she pinned her. And still, your women's Intercontinental Champion,

<v Speaker 1>Raquel Rodriguez. Not much of a match. You know, they

<v Speaker 1>got Lyra out here looking like a fucking crackhead. This

<v Speaker 1>is her gimmick now. I mean, look, she's putting her

<v Speaker 1>all into it. She's playing it as best she can.

<v Speaker 1>Greasy old Lyra. She needs her fix. What's that meme? Hey, Jeremy,

<v Speaker 1>thank you. That Dave Chappelle meme. She looks like the

<v Speaker 1>girl from Fight Club. No, she looks like a fucking crackhead.

<v Speaker 1>That's what she looks like. It's her emo phase. Anyway,

<v Speaker 1>the other Intercontinental Champion, he was out to the ring

<v Speaker 1>after this for a promo. Chad Gable said that he

<v Speaker 1>realized that the real work begins now. He said now

<v Speaker 1>is the time to define his legacy and define how

<v Speaker 1>he wants to be remembered. Was he dying? He started

<v Speaker 1>carving out that legacy against a Lucha legend in Rey Mysterio.

<v Speaker 1>He talked about all of his work in AAA as

<v Speaker 1>El Grande Americano and how it really meant a lot

<v Speaker 1>to him. He said he wouldn't be the Intercontinental Champion

<v Speaker 1>right now if not for the Mexican people. He did

<v Speaker 1>not want to go to Mexico unless he could repay them.

<v Speaker 1>And now, because Raw is coming back to Mexico for

<v Speaker 1>the first time in 15 years, which reminded me I

<v Speaker 1>had completely forgotten, I guess, that Raw was in Mexico

<v Speaker 1>15 years ago. Okay. But now that they're going back

<v Speaker 1>to Mexico City next month, he wants to defend his

<v Speaker 1>championship there. He said he's going to introduce one person

<v Speaker 1>who he feels deserves a chance at that title. He

<v Speaker 1>wants to bring out Dragon Lee. So Dragon Lee comes

<v Speaker 1>out to the ring. And Gable said the Dragons match

<v Speaker 1>against Ray Phoenix last week was awe-inspiring. And he has

<v Speaker 1>all the respect in the world for him. Dragon Lee

<v Speaker 1>said he also has respect for Gable. And Gable noted

<v Speaker 1>that Adam Pearce allowed him to pick his opponent in

<v Speaker 1>Mexico City. Well, not so fast. That brings out Ethan Page.

<v Speaker 1>He doesn't like the sound of that. Page cut him

<v Speaker 1>off and said Gable's out here as a fighting champion,

<v Speaker 1>giving away free title shots to undeserving luchadors. He said

<v Speaker 1>Gable should pick a stronger opponent like him. Gable said

<v Speaker 1>Page is on that list of deserving contenders, but he

<v Speaker 1>joked that Page is not on top. He has him

<v Speaker 1>slotted right below the honky-tonk man. I will not tolerate

<v Speaker 1>any honky-tonk man slander around here. Formally the longest reigning

<v Speaker 1>intercontinental champion of all time, of course that is no

<v Speaker 1>longer true, and now belongs to Gunther, or Gooner, as

<v Speaker 1>Danhausen called him on SmackDown last Friday. So he ranks

<v Speaker 1>him below Honky Tonk Man. And he said that Gable

<v Speaker 1>needs to stop being a charity case. Now Paige responded.

<v Speaker 1>Paige actually responded and said, I don't really take that

<v Speaker 1>as a sign of disrespect, because as I just pointed out,

<v Speaker 1>Honky Tonk Man is one of the longest-reigning Intercontinental champions

<v Speaker 1>of all time. But he goes, you've got to stop

<v Speaker 1>being a charity case, or else you'll just be a

<v Speaker 1>paper champion. So Dragon Lee heard enough, and he cut in.

<v Speaker 1>And Page called him a little man trying to cut

<v Speaker 1>in while the adults are speaking. Lee said that Page

<v Speaker 1>has a big mouth, and if you want to prove yourself,

<v Speaker 1>then we should have a match in Cleveland right here,

<v Speaker 1>right now. So Gable cut in and said, you know,

<v Speaker 1>that sounds like a good idea. As long as it's

<v Speaker 1>okay with Adam Pearce, the winner will get a chance

<v Speaker 1>to wrestle for the championship in Mexico. And that led

<v Speaker 1>into our match here between dragonly and all ego dragon

<v Speaker 1>hit page with a hurricane rana from the ring to

<v Speaker 1>the floor that sent page into the announce desk ethan

<v Speaker 1>blocked a suicide dive attempt with a strike as dragon

<v Speaker 1>was about to take flight and page then tossed dragonly

<v Speaker 1>into gable outside gable chased page which caught the attention

<v Speaker 1>of the referee and that little distraction by gable allowed

<v Speaker 1>page to Pull off the top turnbuckle pad to expose

<v Speaker 1>the steel underneath. Page then sent Dragon into the exposed buckle.

<v Speaker 1>So the referee, he did not count the follow-up pin

<v Speaker 1>attempt by Ethan Page, because before he dropped down to

<v Speaker 1>actually do his count, he glanced up and he noticed

<v Speaker 1>that the turnbuckle was exposed. Now, I ask you, how

<v Speaker 1>many times have we seen the turnbuckle pad exposed? especially

<v Speaker 1>when the referee doesn't see it and how many times

<v Speaker 1>do we see the referee stop their count or refuse

<v Speaker 1>to count because wait a minute wait a minute the

<v Speaker 1>turnbuckle is exposed and you obviously did it even though

<v Speaker 1>I didn't see it but you clearly did it This

<v Speaker 1>was so preposterous to me, just based on how many

<v Speaker 1>fucking times they do this spot in wrestling, and this never,

<v Speaker 1>ever happens. This is a selective enforcement of the rules.

<v Speaker 1>This is what I'm talking about. That's why one pet peeve.

<v Speaker 1>And again, tongue-in-cheek, but like pet peeves in wrestling, we

<v Speaker 1>could list a hundred of them. One of them is

<v Speaker 1>selective enforcement of the rules. This is across all wrestling companies.

<v Speaker 1>It is out of control. All I could do watching

<v Speaker 1>this was just laugh at the absurdity of it. And

<v Speaker 1>he's blaming Ethan for something that he didn't even see.

<v Speaker 1>So Gable and Paige, they started to yell at each other,

<v Speaker 1>and that distraction allowed Dragon Lee to sneak up from

<v Speaker 1>behind and hit Operation Dragon again. and pick up the win.

<v Speaker 1>I would file a motion of protest if I was

<v Speaker 1>Ethan Page. This referee was completely out of bounds here.

<v Speaker 1>I think he has a very valid case. I say

<v Speaker 1>triple threat in Mexico City. That's what I say. But

<v Speaker 1>you know what? We're probably not getting a triple threat.

<v Speaker 1>We have Dragon Lee and Chad Gable in Mexico City

<v Speaker 1>for the championship. Sign me the fuck up. That's going

<v Speaker 1>to be great. Roman Reigns, he got out of an

<v Speaker 1>SUV in the parking lot. He met up with Jacob Fatu,

<v Speaker 1>and Jacob gave Roman an update on what happened earlier

<v Speaker 1>with Royce Keys and his crew taking out their cousins.

<v Speaker 1>And Jacob said, you know, look, Royce right now, man,

<v Speaker 1>he's on another level. You might even say he's on

<v Speaker 1>a new level. Said that he's seen this version of

<v Speaker 1>Royce before, and that's when they were both younger, because,

<v Speaker 1>you know, they grew up out west. Roman cut in

<v Speaker 1>and he said, look, Royce is not our problem. He's

<v Speaker 1>your problem. He goes, you need to handle this yourself.

<v Speaker 1>Roman says, I have my own problems that I need

<v Speaker 1>to go take care of. And so he was on

<v Speaker 1>his way out to the ring. At this point, they

<v Speaker 1>also made mention of the fact we now have a

<v Speaker 1>date for Crown Jewel. Talked a lot about Crown Jewel.

<v Speaker 1>Is it going to happen? Is it not going to

<v Speaker 1>be happening? And then PW Insider had a report a

<v Speaker 1>couple of weeks ago that there was a Saudi show,

<v Speaker 1>likely Crown Jewel, that was earmarked for November. We did

<v Speaker 1>not have an exact date. Now we do. Crown Jewel

<v Speaker 1>in Riyadh, Saturday, November 7th. So it is happening. And

<v Speaker 1>as of this moment, unless something changes between now and then,

<v Speaker 1>that would mean that we would be getting a WrestleMania

<v Speaker 1>rematch between Roman Reigns and CM Punk. Unless... Unless, as

<v Speaker 1>many of you seem to believe, at Money in the Bank,

<v Speaker 1>assuming the match happens, LA Knight was to beat Roman

<v Speaker 1>Reigns to win the World Heavyweight Championship. And then I

<v Speaker 1>suppose it would be CM Punk against LA Knight. But

<v Speaker 1>as of this moment, it looks like a Punk and

<v Speaker 1>Roman rematch. And what would be, I guess, the Women's

<v Speaker 1>World Championships would be Liv Morgan and Chelsea Gray. Yeah,

<v Speaker 1>I don't want to see that. I have no interest

<v Speaker 1>in Liv Morgan against Chelsea Green for the crown jewel title.

<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. Zero concern for his cousins in the hospital?

<v Speaker 1>Of course, because as I have been telling you for

<v Speaker 1>I don't know how many months now, Roman Reigns is

<v Speaker 1>an asshole. He's selfish. He has not changed at all

<v Speaker 1>since losing the Undisputed Championship. And he cares about nobody

<v Speaker 1>but himself. All this... in the ring every week about

<v Speaker 1>how family, it's about family, right? He doesn't give a

<v Speaker 1>fuck about family. At his core, this character, he doesn't

<v Speaker 1>give a shit about family. He cares about himself. He

<v Speaker 1>cares about his status and his position. Anybody who comes

<v Speaker 1>out to the ring every single week and his entire

<v Speaker 1>shtick is that he demands that everybody in the building

<v Speaker 1>acknowledge him. Doesn't care about anybody but one person. Themself.

<v Speaker 1>That's it. So, of course, he doesn't give a shit

<v Speaker 1>about the Usos. Because how does that affect him? I'll

<v Speaker 1>tell you how it affects him. The reason that he

<v Speaker 1>would be concerned about that is because now he's down

<v Speaker 1>two men. He made them captains a few weeks ago.

<v Speaker 1>Now he's down two captains. That's why he's concerned. But

<v Speaker 1>yet everybody cheers him. OTC, OTC. Roman's an asshole, and

<v Speaker 1>so are you, if you're in the crowd chanting OTC.

<v Speaker 1>So anyway, yes, Crown Jewel, November 7th. Mark it down.

<v Speaker 1>Or don't. I don't give a shit. Roman Reigns was

<v Speaker 1>out to the ring next by himself for a promo.

<v Speaker 1>And I'll give you one guess as to what he did.

<v Speaker 1>The first thing he did when he got in the ring,

<v Speaker 1>he wanted Cleveland to acknowledge him, and they did. And then,

<v Speaker 1>very interesting, he called himself the one true champion. The

<v Speaker 1>only champion that matters. Now, I'm sure that was meant

<v Speaker 1>to be a dig at CM Punk. Maybe they were

<v Speaker 1>already building to crown Jewel, leaving little breadcrumbs. But it's

<v Speaker 1>very interesting how he's out here calling himself the one

<v Speaker 1>true champion. One true champion, you say. I can think

<v Speaker 1>of somebody who would maybe take umbrage with that on

<v Speaker 1>the other show. Roman wanted to be here tonight talking

<v Speaker 1>about Penta and Ray Phoenix and the man that he

<v Speaker 1>was going to be defending the championship against in Mexico

<v Speaker 1>City in a few weeks. They're earning his respect by

<v Speaker 1>competing in this tournament to become number one contender. He

<v Speaker 1>wanted to address all of that rather than have to

<v Speaker 1>deal with people bitching and moaning and not showing any respect.

<v Speaker 1>Which brought him to Solo Sokoa. Roman said that he's

<v Speaker 1>going to make Solo respect him and serve his family.

<v Speaker 1>But Solo blew it all off for LA Knight. He

<v Speaker 1>might remind Solo of The Rock, but he's not family.

<v Speaker 1>Very original. We're out here calling L.A. Knight a clone

<v Speaker 1>of The Rock. Actually, he's more a clone of Stone

<v Speaker 1>Cold than The Rock, but I thought we were beyond this.

<v Speaker 1>These were jokes from like 2024. Why are we still

<v Speaker 1>talking about this on TV? L.A. Knight's music hits, and

<v Speaker 1>he makes his way out. He says Roman can address

<v Speaker 1>him to his face. He said he's got so much

<v Speaker 1>going on, he should talk about Royce and his goon squad,

<v Speaker 1>but Roman is repeating material from three years ago. He's

<v Speaker 1>looking at Roman doing things the wrong way. He's put

<v Speaker 1>tournaments out there that he can't enter and family members

<v Speaker 1>in between them. He said OTC stands for One Tremendous Coward.

<v Speaker 1>And he said he dropped Roman on his head two

<v Speaker 1>weeks ago, and last week he was at home rethinking

<v Speaker 1>his life decisions. So, this basically all led to, you know, Knight,

<v Speaker 1>at this point, looking up at the screen because we

<v Speaker 1>saw Solo Sokoa. Now, I mentioned the pixelation earlier with

<v Speaker 1>the Usos. They did the same thing with Solo Sokoa.

<v Speaker 1>We see him laid out in the back in the

<v Speaker 1>parking lot area. And only, like, a portion of his

<v Speaker 1>head is, like, the side of his head is being

<v Speaker 1>blurred and obscured. Like, I can understand them doing some

<v Speaker 1>sort of censoring of this, but just the way they

<v Speaker 1>were doing it was so fucking weird. Like, what is

<v Speaker 1>the point of this? Why are you doing it that way? Very,

<v Speaker 1>very strange. But someone had taken him out. L.A. Knight

<v Speaker 1>sees this and he shows concern because now he and

<v Speaker 1>Solo are friends. So he leaves the ring and he... Hey, Museman,

<v Speaker 1>I'm reconsidering my life decisions on most weeks when I

<v Speaker 1>watch these television shows. But L.A. Knight, he runs to

<v Speaker 1>the back to go check up on his friend, and

<v Speaker 1>he sees Jacob Fatu standing there. And he's, of course,

<v Speaker 1>accusing him of being responsible for what happened, and Jacob

<v Speaker 1>is denying the whole thing. And out of nowhere, Roman

<v Speaker 1>Reigns comes in, and he delivers a Superman punch to L.A.

<v Speaker 1>Knight and drops him. And Roman tells Fatu, you handle keys.

<v Speaker 1>He says he has Knight under control. So again, LA

<v Speaker 1>Knight stuck in this bloodline vortex. He's stuck in the

<v Speaker 1>middle of this gang war between these two warring groups.

<v Speaker 1>They're waiting until we get beyond Mexico City to announce

<v Speaker 1>the Money in the Bank match. I mean, Adam Pearce

<v Speaker 1>told LA Knight a few weeks ago, he goes, we

<v Speaker 1>need to get past this tournament first. I promise you

<v Speaker 1>that you will get your chance, you will get your opportunity,

<v Speaker 1>but we got to get past this tournament first. So

<v Speaker 1>that tournament is in the middle of September. Money in

<v Speaker 1>the Bank, I think, is October 10th. So we're not

<v Speaker 1>going to get any kind of announcement until probably the

<v Speaker 1>week after Mexico City. But we have a lot of

<v Speaker 1>time left to go between now and Money in the Bank.

<v Speaker 1>So it's more a question in my mind of like,

<v Speaker 1>all right, how do we keep this moving along and

<v Speaker 1>moving forward and staying fresh and staying interesting to get

<v Speaker 1>us to the inevitable match between these two men? I

<v Speaker 1>just hope they can keep it interesting. And same thing

<v Speaker 1>with Solo Sokoa. You know, Solo's in the middle of

<v Speaker 1>all this. He got taken out. I don't know if

<v Speaker 1>that means he's going to be off the show next week.

<v Speaker 1>I mean, these days in wrestling, the things that we

<v Speaker 1>see on these shows. I mean, guys, you could have

<v Speaker 1>a fucking anvil dropped on your head and they'll be

<v Speaker 1>back the next week with a little band-aid on their head.

<v Speaker 1>It doesn't even matter. Like, all the Usos were in

<v Speaker 1>the hospital and all this other garbage. Like, they'll probably

<v Speaker 1>be back on the show next week. Like, nothing ever happened.

<v Speaker 1>Maybe they'll still have a giant blur over their faces.

<v Speaker 1>That would be kind of funny. God forbid there's like

<v Speaker 1>a fucking scar and some stitches. We can't show that either.

<v Speaker 1>Let's put a giant blur over the guy's face as

<v Speaker 1>they yeet through the crowd. crowd on their way down

<v Speaker 1>to the ring you'll be very excited to know that

<v Speaker 1>we also got another Lola Weiss coming soon video package

<v Speaker 1>they don't identify her by name it's very you look

<v Speaker 1>at the assets that we see on screen it's very

<v Speaker 1>clear who it is And then they flash the date

<v Speaker 1>9-14 at the end, and it was very similar to

<v Speaker 1>the previous one where we kind of see her from behind,

<v Speaker 1>and then we see her in the gym kicking asses

<v Speaker 1>and everything, so she is on her way in. I'm

<v Speaker 1>sure many of you are very excited. Calm down. Dominic

<v Speaker 1>Mysterio with J.D. McDonough in his corner one-on-one with Javon Evans.

<v Speaker 1>McDonough pulled Mysterio out of the ring to regroup at

<v Speaker 1>one point. Evans went outside. He nailed McDonough. Then clotheslined

<v Speaker 1>Dom over the barricade into the timekeeper's area. Evans began

<v Speaker 1>to do his run around the ring. He was preparing

<v Speaker 1>to do the big dive over the barricade into the

<v Speaker 1>timekeeper's area. He never made it, though. As he rounded

<v Speaker 1>the bend, J.D. McDonough clotheslined him and took him down.

<v Speaker 1>And then we hear the bell for the very lame disqualification.

<v Speaker 1>That's how this match ended. So the Judgment Day, they

<v Speaker 1>put a beat down on Javon, and then we hear,

<v Speaker 1>say his name, and he appears. I didn't hear his

<v Speaker 1>name mentioned, but out comes Joe Hendry. He runs down

<v Speaker 1>to the ring to make the save. Joe Hendry, he

<v Speaker 1>of who, you know, music fame, has a new album

<v Speaker 1>coming out. I believe, I think it's in October. But

<v Speaker 1>he's mentioned it a bunch of times now. He's got

<v Speaker 1>a whole, like, legitimate album of songs that he recorded

<v Speaker 1>earlier this year with WWE. And that'll be out sometime

<v Speaker 1>in the next couple of months. But he runs down

<v Speaker 1>to the ring to make the save. Adam Pearce makes

<v Speaker 1>his way out. And he announces that he was sick

<v Speaker 1>of the Judgment Day, as I think we all are.

<v Speaker 1>And he did his best Teddy Long, and he made

<v Speaker 1>this a tag team match. So we had Joe Hendry

<v Speaker 1>and Javon Evans against Dominic Mysterio and J.D. McDonough. Evans

<v Speaker 1>did finally get that big dive out over into the

<v Speaker 1>timekeeper's area. Hendry got a hot tag later. He dumped

<v Speaker 1>everybody with fallaway slams. Back inside, Mysterio tried for a 619. Hendry, though,

<v Speaker 1>dropped him with a clothesline, and then McDonough caught Hendry

<v Speaker 1>from the apron. I don't think the referee saw this,

<v Speaker 1>but from the apron, he reached in with his giant

<v Speaker 1>Funko head, and he delivered a headbutt to Joe Hendry.

<v Speaker 1>Mysterio then finished him off with a frog splash. A

<v Speaker 1>rare win. Look at that. The AAA mega champion actually

<v Speaker 1>won a fucking match on this show. Hey, hey, good job, man.

<v Speaker 1>Good job. Hey, look, a win is a win. I

<v Speaker 1>know it's a meaningless, trivial tag team match that nobody

<v Speaker 1>is going to remember in four days, but still, at

<v Speaker 1>least he didn't lose, which he'll be doing at TripleMania.

<v Speaker 1>He's been doing a lot of that lately. Any win

<v Speaker 1>needs to be celebrated for this man. It's quite amazing

<v Speaker 1>to see where he is now and how he is

<v Speaker 1>booked now as compared to a year ago. Amazing. Backstage,

<v Speaker 1>Kathy Kelly was talking to Becky Lynch asking, why did

<v Speaker 1>you help Stephanie Viqueur last week? Then Stephanie showed up

<v Speaker 1>and Kathy disappeared. She just wanted to know face to face.

<v Speaker 1>She wanted an answer to that very same question. And

<v Speaker 1>Becky said, yeah, she didn't really look at it so

<v Speaker 1>much as helping Stephanie as much as it was, you know,

<v Speaker 1>getting her some of the Judgment Day. So Becky said

<v Speaker 1>that Stephanie owes her one. Stephanie doesn't see it that way.

<v Speaker 1>Becky wants the first shot, though, after Stephanie beats Liv

<v Speaker 1>to win the championship. And Stephanie says that Becky doesn't

<v Speaker 1>deserve the title. The title deserves Stephanie. I think we

<v Speaker 1>all deserve Stephanie. I don't think anybody is complaining whenever

<v Speaker 1>we get Stephanie on the show. Oh, that's right, Pat

<v Speaker 1>McAfee has an album out. I can't wait not to

<v Speaker 1>listen to it. I would rather listen to five Joe

<v Speaker 1>Hendry albums than listen to one Pat McAfee album. We

<v Speaker 1>got a video package hyping up the Obafemi Brock Lesnar.

<v Speaker 1>The Obafemi, they wrestle so many times, why not do

<v Speaker 1>it one more time? Obafemi and Braun Breaker. They're having

<v Speaker 1>a match this Sunday at Sunday night's main event. We

<v Speaker 1>had the contract signing. We've had a couple of segments

<v Speaker 1>with them now. They were not live on the show tonight.

<v Speaker 1>Coming out of that video package, we see Paul Heyman

<v Speaker 1>doing what Paul Heyman does, which is just literally randomly

<v Speaker 1>standing in the backstage area doing absolutely nothing. Hoping, I guess,

<v Speaker 1>that Kathy Kelly or Jackie Redmond or Byron Saxton or

<v Speaker 1>Sean Mooney or Mean Gene Okerlund or his ghost... Or

<v Speaker 1>someone will show up and ask him a fucking question

<v Speaker 1>to justify his existence in that locker room. Thankfully for him,

<v Speaker 1>Cathy Kelly showed up. And Cathy Kelly wanted to know

<v Speaker 1>if he had a prediction or a spoiler for this

<v Speaker 1>match coming up on Sunday. And Heyman said he has neither.

<v Speaker 1>This is a must win for both men. Neither man

<v Speaker 1>could afford to lose. It's the worst time right now

<v Speaker 1>to lose a match, especially a match like this where

<v Speaker 1>you're being billed The winner is the future of WWE

<v Speaker 1>because we're only a few months away from Royal Rumble season.

<v Speaker 1>And Royal Rumble season, of course, leads into WrestleMania season.

<v Speaker 1>And so you don't want to be losing a big

<v Speaker 1>match like this right now. He respects Oba Femi. He

<v Speaker 1>witnessed what Oba did to Brock Lesnar up close. He

<v Speaker 1>loves Braun Breaker. Says that he's the hardest working man there.

<v Speaker 1>And he'll bring the fight like no one else has

<v Speaker 1>brought to Oba. He knows what's on the line. Your

<v Speaker 1>guess is as good as his. We'll all find out

<v Speaker 1>on Sunday. Well, that was a rather pointless segment, now

<v Speaker 1>wasn't it? Moving on, we go to the Judgment Day clubhouse.

<v Speaker 1>Is it still the clubhouse? You know what it looks like?

<v Speaker 1>It looks like they're literally just hanging out at a

<v Speaker 1>bunch of equipment cases now in the backstage area. I

<v Speaker 1>don't really think it's much of a clubhouse anymore. If

<v Speaker 1>it is, it's a very sad one. But they're all

<v Speaker 1>congregated in the back and they're laughing and yucking it

<v Speaker 1>up over Sol Ruka's misfortune earlier on before Dom and

<v Speaker 1>JD show up. And now it's a big celebration and

<v Speaker 1>Liv hugs Dom and Dom hugs Liv. Roxanne says she

<v Speaker 1>wants Becky to show up and get involved in that

<v Speaker 1>title match next week so that she can get a

<v Speaker 1>piece of her. And Liv tells them that she'll have

<v Speaker 1>no problem beating Stephanie Viqueira on her own. And now

<v Speaker 1>they're all off to celebrate with tacos and nuggets. Like

<v Speaker 1>all great athletes do. They stuff their faces with tacos

<v Speaker 1>and nuggets. I mean, then again, I mean, nuggets are

<v Speaker 1>quite good. I'm not a taco guy. Taco Tuesday, all

<v Speaker 1>that bullshit, but some chicken nuggets? I don't have them

<v Speaker 1>very often. But when I do, as long as I

<v Speaker 1>don't go and find the videos that are out there

<v Speaker 1>of how they're actually made, we won't talk about that.

<v Speaker 1>We won't talk about the weird goo that is used

<v Speaker 1>in the creation of these chicken nuggets. But they are

<v Speaker 1>quite good. And by the way, I think it was

<v Speaker 1>McDonald's specifically. I had Chick-fil-A nuggets not that long ago.

<v Speaker 1>I didn't know what I was missing out on. It's

<v Speaker 1>a good thing I don't live near a Chick-fil-A. I'd

<v Speaker 1>be having nothing but nuggets every single day for lunch. No,

<v Speaker 1>I didn't say nuggets in tacos. They were going for

<v Speaker 1>nuggets and tacos. Actually, that might not be so bad.

<v Speaker 1>Nuggets in tacos. But yeah, we won't talk about how

<v Speaker 1>the sausage is made, so to speak. So we go

<v Speaker 1>back to ringside. Joe Tessitore and Wade Barrett are sitting there,

<v Speaker 1>and they are... Oh, I just realized that Joe Tess

<v Speaker 1>was doing commentary. Well, I guess because it was Friday, right? Yeah,

<v Speaker 1>they taped this on Friday, so that makes sense why

<v Speaker 1>they would have had Tessitore and Wade Barrett doing commentary

<v Speaker 1>here on this show. They gave us an update And

<v Speaker 1>I think another replay of what happened earlier in the

<v Speaker 1>back when the show started with Keys and OTM. Joe

<v Speaker 1>said that all three men, including Solo, have been transported

<v Speaker 1>to a local medical facility. And they're being evaluated for

<v Speaker 1>their various injuries. I'm sure many contusions were had by

<v Speaker 1>these men. They always love contusions. You can't have too

<v Speaker 1>many contusions. I'll never forget when Stone Cold dropped Triple

<v Speaker 1>H in that fucking car. Right? The forklift. And he

<v Speaker 1>flipped the car and he drops the car in the

<v Speaker 1>parking lot at Survivor Series. The car lands right on

<v Speaker 1>its roof. The man is smashed in the car. That's

<v Speaker 1>how the pay-per-view ended. Triple H, I think he missed

<v Speaker 1>one week. And he came back and they said he

<v Speaker 1>had contusions. He's a lucky man. He's a very lucky man.

<v Speaker 1>But then we're all very lucky because we were finally

<v Speaker 1>down to the main event. The only thing that really

<v Speaker 1>I was looking forward to on this show, let's be honest,

<v Speaker 1>which was the finals of the Lucha Tournament that has

<v Speaker 1>been playing out now for several weeks. The winner will

<v Speaker 1>challenge Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship on September

<v Speaker 1>14th in Mexico City. Penta against Ray Phoenix, the reigning

<v Speaker 1>AAA Cruiserweight Champion, who, if you missed it, on the

<v Speaker 1>AAA show yesterday, and I'll talk a little bit about

<v Speaker 1>the AAA show. I actually didn't see it, but I

<v Speaker 1>heard a lot of good things about the Mini Vikingo match.

<v Speaker 1>But I know that after the Triple Threat match, the

<v Speaker 1>number one contenders match for the Cruiserweight title, which had

<v Speaker 1>no winner, Ray Phoenix came out and said, I want

<v Speaker 1>to defend my title against all these guys. Jack Cartwheel,

<v Speaker 1>Mini Vikingo. So it's going to be a four-way for

<v Speaker 1>the championship at TripleMania. But Ray Phoenix could collect more

<v Speaker 1>gold here with a win in this tournament. So the

<v Speaker 1>Lucha Brothers facing off here for the first time in

<v Speaker 1>six years. Last time that we saw this was on

<v Speaker 1>Dynamite in 2020. They shook hands, and then very quickly,

<v Speaker 1>we got a chop fest between the two brothers. And

<v Speaker 1>then we had some rapid-fire offense here into a stalemate,

<v Speaker 1>and everybody clapped and applauded. Penta dropkick Phoenix on a

<v Speaker 1>handspring attempt, then he dove out onto him outside with

<v Speaker 1>a plancha. Phoenix hit the goodnight amigo kick, went up top,

<v Speaker 1>and did a corkscrew torneo splash onto Penta on the floor.

<v Speaker 1>Phoenix rolls back inside, and he ends up handspringing into

<v Speaker 1>a cutter for a two count. Penta comes back with

<v Speaker 1>a sling blade, and then they trade moves back and

<v Speaker 1>forth until both men end up down. So there was

<v Speaker 1>a backstabber out of the corner by Penta. He then

<v Speaker 1>went for a Mexican Destroyer on the apron. Phoenix blocked it, though,

<v Speaker 1>and then back inside he came off the top with

<v Speaker 1>a moonsault straight down on top of Penta's head. That

<v Speaker 1>was a scary landing there. Looked very gnarly. Only got

<v Speaker 1>a two out of it, though. So Penta then popped

<v Speaker 1>Phoenix up into the air. This was the moment here

<v Speaker 1>in this match where people were like, whoa, what was that?

<v Speaker 1>He popped Phoenix up into the air. and flipped him

<v Speaker 1>so that on the way down, he caught him into

<v Speaker 1>a powerbomb, which was a pretty cool spot. That was

<v Speaker 1>a nice near fall there. Again, I say this not

<v Speaker 1>to say that it woke up the crowd, like the

<v Speaker 1>crowd was dead silent. I mean, they were a little quiet,

<v Speaker 1>but they weren't church silent or anything like that. But

<v Speaker 1>this was the moment here with that move where you

<v Speaker 1>got their attention. And then from this point on, they

<v Speaker 1>really didn't take their foot off the gas. Penta tried

<v Speaker 1>for an avalanche destroyer. Phoenix, though, fought out of it.

<v Speaker 1>He tried for a superplex. Penta, though, fought out of that.

<v Speaker 1>He went for a destroyer, and he hit it, except

<v Speaker 1>Phoenix lands on his feet. And Penta is down in

<v Speaker 1>the corner looking up at his brother like he sees

<v Speaker 1>a ghost. He is shook. He can't believe what he

<v Speaker 1>just saw. And so at this point, this match has

<v Speaker 1>noticeably shifted into that next gear. They ended up outside

<v Speaker 1>the ring. Penta cleared off the announce desk. And they

<v Speaker 1>both ended up on top of the... Actually, I missed

<v Speaker 1>one part here, where Phoenix went for the Mexican Muscle Buster,

<v Speaker 1>and Penta actually slipped out. And then he hit the

<v Speaker 1>Penta driver. Only got two. Then they ended up outside.

<v Speaker 1>And Penta clears off the announce desk. I'm so excited here,

<v Speaker 1>I'm skipping ahead. So they end up on top of

<v Speaker 1>the announce desk. And Penta gives Ray Phoenix a fucking

<v Speaker 1>Penta driver through the announce desk. Which was a crazy spot.

<v Speaker 1>Holy shit, indeed. However, by the time he rolled his

<v Speaker 1>brother back into the ring, so much time had elapsed

<v Speaker 1>that by the time he covered him, Phoenix kicked out. Which,

<v Speaker 1>even with the delay, I was like, he just took

<v Speaker 1>a Penta driver through the announce desk. But, you know, again,

<v Speaker 1>they let enough time go by where it's at least plausible.

<v Speaker 1>Penta then did the sacrifice with his brother's arm, snapped

<v Speaker 1>it back. So now Phoenix is on his knees. And

<v Speaker 1>I think he's kind of feigning like he thinks his

<v Speaker 1>goose is cooked here. He's on his knees. He's looking

<v Speaker 1>at his brother in the corner. And he's basically saying,

<v Speaker 1>kill me. Actually, literally, he said, kill me. Basically, go ahead.

<v Speaker 1>I'll give you my chin. Take your best shot. Finish

<v Speaker 1>me off. And Penta comes in. He's going to go

<v Speaker 1>for the destroyer. As he charges in, though. Phoenix leaps

<v Speaker 1>up to his feet and he takes his brother over

<v Speaker 1>with a standing Rana for a near fall. Penta then

<v Speaker 1>pops back up and he hits a fucking sick Destroyer.

<v Speaker 1>One of the best that I've seen anybody take in

<v Speaker 1>all the time that Penta has been in this company.

<v Speaker 1>And he hits him with that to put it away

<v Speaker 1>for the older brother, making him the number one contender

<v Speaker 1>for the World Heavyweight Championship. After the match was over,

<v Speaker 1>Penta helped his brother up to his feet. The two

<v Speaker 1>of them embraced. Penta got the pyro celebration in the background.

<v Speaker 1>And then we hear Roman Reigns' theme song. Out comes

<v Speaker 1>the world heavyweight champion. He's got a lot of irons

<v Speaker 1>in the fire, does Roman, which I kind of like

<v Speaker 1>that he's got a lot going on because it also

<v Speaker 1>forces him on television more often. He's got this feud

<v Speaker 1>with LA Knight. He's got family shit going on where

<v Speaker 1>now his family is being taken out by this new

<v Speaker 1>renegade trio. And now he's got to contend with Penta.

<v Speaker 1>He's got to have his eyes focused on this guy

<v Speaker 1>because he's defending his championship in Mexico City in a

<v Speaker 1>few weeks. So he's got a bunch of different things

<v Speaker 1>going on. And that's to say nothing of Crown Jewel,

<v Speaker 1>where he's going to have to, well, he's not defending

<v Speaker 1>his title, but he's going to have to go one-on-one

<v Speaker 1>quite possibly yet again with CM Punk for the Crown

<v Speaker 1>Jewel championship, even though that's a few months away. But

<v Speaker 1>I like that it just feels like there's a lot

<v Speaker 1>going on in that realm with him. And it should,

<v Speaker 1>not every week, but it should at least keep him around,

<v Speaker 1>if not weekly, then I would say pretty much every

<v Speaker 1>other week, if nothing else. And if he's going to

<v Speaker 1>be the World Heavyweight Champion, he's got to be around.

<v Speaker 1>You know, he can't be taking breaks in long stretches

<v Speaker 1>of weeks and weeks where he's not on TV. So

<v Speaker 1>that's the one good thing, is that he's, for the

<v Speaker 1>most part, he's been around. So he gets into the ring,

<v Speaker 1>he holds up his championship, and... Penta then shows No Fear,

<v Speaker 1>Cero Miedo. And that's how they went off the air,

<v Speaker 1>where they stared down between those two. I cleared the

<v Speaker 1>show in less than an hour and 40 minutes, man.

<v Speaker 1>It was beautiful. Brought a tear to my eye, I

<v Speaker 1>must say. It was quite nice. I wish they could

<v Speaker 1>all be like this. The only drawback is that it's taped.

<v Speaker 1>Nothing beats a live show. You gotta be live. But

<v Speaker 1>outside of that, I was able to breeze through this

<v Speaker 1>very quickly and Beyond the main event and beyond the

<v Speaker 1>stuff that I talked about with all the mayhem around

<v Speaker 1>keys and OTM and all that, there really wasn't a

<v Speaker 1>whole lot going on with this show. I mean, they

<v Speaker 1>established a contender for Gable's title for Mexico City. And

<v Speaker 1>I mean, they had a few other matches, but nothing

<v Speaker 1>of any great significance. It was a very missable show

<v Speaker 1>outside of those two things. But those two things were

<v Speaker 1>very well done. The attack at the beginning of the show,

<v Speaker 1>was a story thread that carried on through the remainder

<v Speaker 1>of the show. And then that main event was fucking perfect.

<v Speaker 1>Like if you were hoping for a Penta and Ray

<v Speaker 1>Phoenix main event in this tournament, they went out there

<v Speaker 1>and they delivered. I can never be too sure because

<v Speaker 1>you just don't know if they're going to get enough

<v Speaker 1>time and you don't know, you know, are they going

<v Speaker 1>to really go balls to the wall? Are they going

<v Speaker 1>to hold back? Look, I know these two are capable

<v Speaker 1>of just some bat shit, crazy, insane stuff. They'd probably

<v Speaker 1>kill each other and get injured. But for what we

<v Speaker 1>got here, this was excellent stuff. This was great. And

<v Speaker 1>I'm looking forward to the match. I mean, we all

<v Speaker 1>know how the match is going to go. Well, we

<v Speaker 1>all know how the match is not going to go,

<v Speaker 1>which is Penta winning the World Heavyweight Championship. But that

<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean I'm not looking forward to the match. And

<v Speaker 1>I still feel like Worlds Collide, you do an Usos

<v Speaker 1>and Lucha Brothers match. This stuff now with OTM, it

<v Speaker 1>might change things a little bit where maybe they want

<v Speaker 1>to go in a different direction and they want to

<v Speaker 1>do Usos and OTM. I just think for that Worlds

<v Speaker 1>Collide show specifically, because you're doing WWE and AAA, Usos

<v Speaker 1>and Lucha Bros is the match to do on that show.

<v Speaker 1>And it won't be very difficult to set that up

<v Speaker 1>coming out of the match that Roman is going to

<v Speaker 1>have with Penta in a few weeks. You can easily

<v Speaker 1>shoot an angle to explain it. And you get a

<v Speaker 1>big match on that show in Chicago. By the way,

<v Speaker 1>I did see that little, was it a commercial or

<v Speaker 1>a video, whatever it was, that little clip that was

<v Speaker 1>teasing CM Punk reviving his old, the old masked look

<v Speaker 1>from his Straight Edge Society days? Does that mean he's

<v Speaker 1>bringing back Gallows and Serena Deeb? I assume Serena Deeb

<v Speaker 1>is still under contract to Tony Khan. Has she been

<v Speaker 1>wrestling in Ring of Honor? I haven't even heard her

<v Speaker 1>name mentioned. I don't know if she's still under contract

<v Speaker 1>with him or not. Maybe they'll make her shave her

<v Speaker 1>head all over again. So yeah, that'll be Punk in

<v Speaker 1>Chicago on the 26th. Anyway, that was Raw. That was

<v Speaker 1>the final Raw for the month of August. So there

<v Speaker 1>you go. That's what I got for you on that end.

<v Speaker 1>Let's take a look at your Super Chats here. Answer

<v Speaker 1>some of your questions as we close out a very

<v Speaker 1>successful month of August between SummerSlam and All In alone.

<v Speaker 1>Two big shows. It's been a good month of August.

<v Speaker 1>Expect that mask to be available for purchase soon? What

<v Speaker 1>mask are we talking about? What mask are you referring to?

<v Speaker 1>Let me refresh this here. I'm going to start with Noah.

<v Speaker 1>Noah Kirby. Dropping a super chat here. Where is he?

<v Speaker 1>Where is... There he is. There's Noah. I enjoyed your cover...

<v Speaker 1>I think coverage, he means, of the Dark Side of

<v Speaker 1>the Ring this season, even though this season was not

<v Speaker 1>as good as the previous seasons. Noah, I am very

<v Speaker 1>happy that you enjoyed the Dark Side of the Ring stuff.

<v Speaker 1>I always enjoy working on it and just kind of

<v Speaker 1>getting into stories and details that they just don't have

<v Speaker 1>time for, or they just don't cover on the episodes

<v Speaker 1>and talking about the episodes themselves. So this season just

<v Speaker 1>felt like it breezed by very quickly. I'm sure part

<v Speaker 1>of that is the fact that like we got three

<v Speaker 1>different fucking episodes covering TNA and Jeff Jarrett. So there

<v Speaker 1>were definitely more topics they could have gotten into. Hopefully

<v Speaker 1>if there is a season eight, we'll, we'll get into those.

<v Speaker 1>GMB is with us. Kendall and Kalani equals special chemistry. Yeah,

<v Speaker 1>that is a match that's going to get lost in

<v Speaker 1>the noise this weekend of all in, which is nobody's

<v Speaker 1>fault but WWE's because they're the ones who chose to

<v Speaker 1>counter program that way. And so that's unfortunate because Kendall

<v Speaker 1>Gray and Kalani Jordan had a fucking great match. And

<v Speaker 1>if it was any other weekend, any other weekend, it

<v Speaker 1>could well have been the match of the weekend, not

<v Speaker 1>just the women's match of the weekend. As it was,

<v Speaker 1>it wasn't even the best women's match of the weekend,

<v Speaker 1>but it was fucking great. So if you didn't see it,

<v Speaker 1>Go to the YouTube channel for the CW Network. They

<v Speaker 1>have all the matches from the show in full on

<v Speaker 1>their YouTube channel if you missed any of them. The

<v Speaker 1>main event was very good too, but the women's match

<v Speaker 1>on that show, that stole the show. Super Pony says,

<v Speaker 1>Miz or Dan Housen for Money in the Bank? Super Pony,

<v Speaker 1>thank God that you are not allowed within 50 feet

<v Speaker 1>of the writer's room. We were all grateful for that.

<v Speaker 1>Venom Kitetsu with a five. Equipment failure at work brought

<v Speaker 1>me back home two hours into my shit. Or shift.

<v Speaker 1>I was going to say, you need to get some

<v Speaker 1>fiber in your diet if it's taking you two hours

<v Speaker 1>to shit. I must have meant to watch the Raw

<v Speaker 1>review tonight. See, it was meant to be. That's why

<v Speaker 1>you're here. It was all meant to be. The stars aligned.

<v Speaker 1>Sometimes fate, you can't outrun fate. Fate is what it is.

<v Speaker 1>Alexander says Royce Keys and OTM need to have their

<v Speaker 1>entrance music be natural born killers. That's adorable. Do you

<v Speaker 1>think WWE is going to shell out the money for

<v Speaker 1>that like Tony Khan did for The Who? For Will Ospreay?

<v Speaker 1>Or for ASAP Ferg? For the new level? They ain't

<v Speaker 1>doing that. Punch Perfect. Says, Solo, I love your content.

<v Speaker 1>I figured out how to resurrect Joe Hendry. Poach Harley

<v Speaker 1>Cameron from Tony and have her be his valet. Concert

<v Speaker 1>duets would slap. You know, that would actually work. I

<v Speaker 1>think that would actually work, but... Yeah, Harley is, I'm sure,

<v Speaker 1>under lock and key for a while, so... Not a

<v Speaker 1>bad idea, though. Jeremy Rose gotta love OTC aura farming

<v Speaker 1>to the ring while his cousins are in medical facility

<v Speaker 1>just getting brutally beat down, yet fans still cheer the guy. Dude, like,

<v Speaker 1>Jimmy and Jay could be hooked up to life support.

<v Speaker 1>And it wouldn't matter to him. They could bring out

<v Speaker 1>the shock paddles and get a message to Roman, right?

<v Speaker 1>We're gonna bring in a priest for last rites. And

<v Speaker 1>Roman says... I haven't been acknowledged yet. Sports talk with Jose.

<v Speaker 1>Am I the only one who noticed when Roman got there,

<v Speaker 1>he said it's Wednesday. I forgot this was, he said

<v Speaker 1>it was Wednesday. This wasn't even taped on Wednesday. This

<v Speaker 1>was taped on Friday. What do you mean Wednesday? I

<v Speaker 1>didn't hear that. Is that what he said? Alexander the

<v Speaker 1>referee in Ethan's match has been studying under the learning

<v Speaker 1>tree of Jessica Carr. That's why he did what he did.

<v Speaker 1>Why Jessica Carr? He's been studying under the learning tree

<v Speaker 1>of every other dumb referee that's made a dumb decision.

<v Speaker 1>Sean D. Imagine a Moxley match on Netflix. Why do

<v Speaker 1>you think he left? They weren't even on Netflix yet

<v Speaker 1>and they had him doing Segments where he was getting inoculated.

<v Speaker 1>He was wearing a gas mask. He couldn't wait to

<v Speaker 1>get the fuck out of that place. Moxley on Netflix

<v Speaker 1>legitimately would be a walking blur. You would never be

<v Speaker 1>able to tell who it is. They would blur him

<v Speaker 1>from head to toe. Walker Stubbs with a $ 9. 99. I

<v Speaker 1>miss the big titantron. I miss the wrestlers fighting backstage

<v Speaker 1>and outside. I miss when You know who to cheer

<v Speaker 1>and boo for. I miss when matches meant something. I

<v Speaker 1>miss the opening intro and pyro. Pepperidge Farm remembers. So

<v Speaker 1>do all of us. I remember and miss the days

<v Speaker 1>when Raw would have a proper opening intro video with

<v Speaker 1>a cool song that would really get you hyped up,

<v Speaker 1>like Thorne in your eye. 30 seconds, right? Doesn't take

<v Speaker 1>too long. Really get you pumped up. Go into the pyro.

<v Speaker 1>Fucking explosions everywhere. The only thing I didn't like about

<v Speaker 1>that was then you had smoke. You had those smoky

<v Speaker 1>buildings as the pyro had to be filtered out there.

<v Speaker 1>You could barely see what was going on. That I miss.

<v Speaker 1>I miss having a proper intro to these shows. And

<v Speaker 1>Walker says, I saw Buddy this past weekend. It was

<v Speaker 1>all right. Have you seen it? No, the only reason

<v Speaker 1>I haven't seen it is because it's not playing in

<v Speaker 1>my local theater. Otherwise, I would have been there to

<v Speaker 1>see it. So I'm very disappointed that I'm going to

<v Speaker 1>have to wait until it comes out on streaming. But

<v Speaker 1>I mean, I was hearing good things about it. It

<v Speaker 1>was very interesting, like the marketing for it. I didn't

<v Speaker 1>even know about this movie until maybe a week ago.

<v Speaker 1>I didn't even know it existed. So I like the

<v Speaker 1>way they've been marketing it. It's just, it's not, I

<v Speaker 1>don't think it's getting a wide release and it's not

<v Speaker 1>going to make a lot of money, but hopefully it

<v Speaker 1>does well. You know, we need more movies like that.

<v Speaker 1>All right, we did hit the goal for Be the Booker,

<v Speaker 1>which was, according to The Wheel, 390, and we're actually

<v Speaker 1>well north of 400. So you guys really wanted to

<v Speaker 1>Be the Booker tonight, or you just wanted to help

<v Speaker 1>me out with the likes. I'm sure it had nothing

<v Speaker 1>to do with Be the Booker. I appreciate it either way.

<v Speaker 1>Let's go ahead and be the booker. The gas mask

<v Speaker 1>was funny as fuck. Really? Really, Necro? Doesn't take a

<v Speaker 1>lot to entertain Necro, apparently. Let's get some tag team

<v Speaker 1>wrestling going, shall we? I think we could do better

<v Speaker 1>than the tag team match that we got tonight. I

<v Speaker 1>would certainly hope so. We already have. I don't even

<v Speaker 1>have to pick a second team. We've already won. We

<v Speaker 1>have Arne Anderson and we have Tully Blanchard and Bobby

<v Speaker 1>the Brain right in the middle between them. Call them

<v Speaker 1>the Horsemen. Call them the Brain Busters. Call them whatever

<v Speaker 1>you want. I am calling this match a bell. They

<v Speaker 1>are going to be wrestling the Judgment Day. Damian Priest

<v Speaker 1>and Finn Balor. I'll allow it. These are the earlier

<v Speaker 1>Judgment Day days when I wasn't completely sick of them.

<v Speaker 1>Priest and Balor against Arn and Tully. Interesting clash of styles.

<v Speaker 1>We have Mighty Molly flying in to be the booker

<v Speaker 1>here to save the day. Former hardcore champion Mighty Molly.

<v Speaker 1>Mighty Molly and Gail Kim. Two ladies who know how

<v Speaker 1>to professionally wrestle, and I believe that they would have

<v Speaker 1>a very good match. Just allow them to go out

<v Speaker 1>there and just wrestle. They're easy on the eyes, too,

<v Speaker 1>which also helps. It's a win-win. And our main event.

<v Speaker 1>Here we go. Oh, boy. That NWA World Heavyweight Championship

<v Speaker 1>is steeped in history. And this is now part of

<v Speaker 1>the lineage of the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. For shame.

<v Speaker 1>I will not allow it to end that way, though.

<v Speaker 1>I will not allow it to end that way. We

<v Speaker 1>are going to give a new main event to all

<v Speaker 1>of you. Because you deserve... a main event that is

<v Speaker 1>worthy of your dollars and I'm going to give it

<v Speaker 1>to you motherfucker I am going to give it to

<v Speaker 1>you Ilya Dragunov Ilya Dragunov he was not part of

<v Speaker 1>the casino gauntlet match on Sunday but I do believe

<v Speaker 1>he is coming into AEW very soon Now we're talking

<v Speaker 1>about a main event here. Now we're talking. Now we're

<v Speaker 1>in business. Dude. Oh, my God. You know what? Fuck this.

<v Speaker 1>Ilya Dragunov and Mantar. And I'm giving it a bell.

<v Speaker 1>And I'm going to tell you why. Because I would

<v Speaker 1>pay good money to see Ilya Dragunov beat the fuck up.

<v Speaker 1>out of Mantar and just chop the shit out of him. Oh,

<v Speaker 1>what a match that would be. What a match that would,

<v Speaker 1>what a battle that would be between Dragunov and Mantar.

<v Speaker 1>Tell me you wouldn't want to see that match. If

<v Speaker 1>that match was coming to your local independent promotion, you

<v Speaker 1>wouldn't spend 20 bucks on a ticket to go see it?

<v Speaker 1>If the answer is yes, let me know because I

<v Speaker 1>will try to make that happen in House of Glory.

<v Speaker 1>It is now my goal to It is a goal

<v Speaker 1>in life now for me to try to get Ilya

<v Speaker 1>Dragunov and Mantar booked in HOG. I was able to

<v Speaker 1>get Shayna Baszler and Maki Ito, and that was quite

<v Speaker 1>the accomplishment, but I think now we set our sights

<v Speaker 1>a little bit higher. He'll be skinned by the end

<v Speaker 1>of that match. Dude, the thing about Tyrus... As the

<v Speaker 1>NWA champion. I saw those matches. And I saw clips

<v Speaker 1>from some of those matches. And just the way he

<v Speaker 1>was moving at that point. I mean I don't think

<v Speaker 1>he's active anymore. Dude he could barely move. This is.

<v Speaker 1>Like you cannot in good. In good faith. Argue. That

<v Speaker 1>that was a great NWA world's heavyweight champion. Like. I

<v Speaker 1>refuse to believe that anybody could look at that and go,

<v Speaker 1>this is acceptable. This, however, is very acceptable. I mean,

<v Speaker 1>it's Mantar. What's not to love? Come on. Alexander says

<v Speaker 1>Dragunov could make it work against Mantar. He could make

<v Speaker 1>it work against anybody. Yeah, and there are some people, oh,

<v Speaker 1>come on, he was in a bad shape. Dude, he

<v Speaker 1>could barely fucking move. Like, I don't know what you

<v Speaker 1>were watching, but you were clearly not watching the same

<v Speaker 1>thing that I was watching. It was an embarrassment. Anyway,

<v Speaker 1>this Friday, I'm going to be in Los Angeles calling

<v Speaker 1>all the action with JD. It's going to be at

<v Speaker 1>the Globe Theater in L.A., House of Glory, Fallout. We've

<v Speaker 1>got a bunch of names on the show. Unfortunately, as

<v Speaker 1>you can see here in this image, Kyle Fletcher is

<v Speaker 1>no longer with his AEW International Championship. This graphic is

<v Speaker 1>now outdated here. But he will be stepping into the

<v Speaker 1>ring for the first time ever, one-on-one with the Amazing Red.

<v Speaker 1>Shotzi going to put her title on the line against

<v Speaker 1>Steph DeLander. We got Zelina making her debut against Shayna Baszler.

<v Speaker 1>Hook is supposed to be there. We got a few

<v Speaker 1>other names to be announced. So I will be a

<v Speaker 1>little bit busy on Fridays. There will be no SmackDown stream,

<v Speaker 1>but you can still catch me on YouTube. How about that?

<v Speaker 1>I'll still be live on YouTube, just on a different channel.

<v Speaker 1>Not talking SmackDown, which is okay with me. Fine with me,

<v Speaker 1>the way SmackDown's been lately. Hopefully I get to see

<v Speaker 1>some of you guys there. Had a fun time last

<v Speaker 1>time I was in L.A., a historic venue there. So yeah,

<v Speaker 1>that'll be, since it's West Coast, just keep in mind

<v Speaker 1>if you're on the East Coast, it's probably going to

<v Speaker 1>be a late start, like around 11 p.m. or so,

<v Speaker 1>because I believe it's an 8 p.m. local start. So

<v Speaker 1>just be aware of that. Triple H just posted the

<v Speaker 1>uncensored version of the opening segment. Dude, it's so goofy. Like,

<v Speaker 1>you watch these shows on Netflix, and they have to

<v Speaker 1>go to social media to post the uncensored version of it?

<v Speaker 1>It's so fucking lame. It is so lame. When Solo

<v Speaker 1>misses SmackDown, something major usually goes down. Yeah, well, it's

<v Speaker 1>a tape show. What could possibly be so major on

<v Speaker 1>the show this week? I'm not too worried about it.

<v Speaker 1>Bring back Right to Censor. I didn't want to see

<v Speaker 1>Right to Censor then. Why would I want to see

<v Speaker 1>them now? Hey, Tony, what's going on? Tony is with us.

<v Speaker 1>Tony's probably like, how come you're ending the stream? Usually

<v Speaker 1>you're starting around now. Well, don't blame me. You can

<v Speaker 1>blame them. You can blame Netflix. Tomorrow, I'm going to

<v Speaker 1>have a brand new episode of the Uncrowned Wrestling Show

<v Speaker 1>that I'll be recording. So that'll be tomorrow. Look for

<v Speaker 1>that later in the day. Just look for that logo.

<v Speaker 1>And there should be a brand new episode coming your way. Also,

<v Speaker 1>tomorrow night, I'll be live on JD's channel for a

<v Speaker 1>brand new installment of Tuesday Night Titans. Wednesday is the

<v Speaker 1>Dynamite Post Show. And as I said... You can catch

<v Speaker 1>me live on commentary Friday night on the House of

<v Speaker 1>Glory YouTube channel talking Fallout. And then this coming weekend

<v Speaker 1>will be not only a sound off, but I will

<v Speaker 1>be live after Sunday night's main event. So you get

<v Speaker 1>two podcasts out of me on Sunday. You get the

<v Speaker 1>usual sound off and then you get a bonus live

<v Speaker 1>stream on Sunday night. They just announced that Quavo is

<v Speaker 1>going to be performing live on the show. An unreleased track.

<v Speaker 1>Oh boy. Quavo and Lil Yachty are going to be

<v Speaker 1>all over this show on Sunday. I'm sure you're all

<v Speaker 1>very excited. I am very excited for the Obafemi and

<v Speaker 1>Braun Breaker match. Cody and Randy should be good too.

<v Speaker 1>The rest of it I can pretty much leave. But

<v Speaker 1>we'll talk about it all. Dark Side of the Ring

<v Speaker 1>on Jerry Lawler. Yeah, you could certainly, yes, you can.

<v Speaker 1>You could certainly do one. You can certainly do one.

<v Speaker 1>Jersey Authentic says, oh good, a concert I can mute.

<v Speaker 1>Come on now, you mean to tell me you're not

<v Speaker 1>looking forward to Quavo? Opening Saturday night's main event? Come. Well,

<v Speaker 1>you know, originally there was a report from WrestleVotes that

<v Speaker 1>they were contemplating doing a Lil Yachty concert. And then

<v Speaker 1>they ended up saying, you know what? Instead of a

<v Speaker 1>Lil Yachty concert, we'll have him wrestle. And we'll do

<v Speaker 1>a Quavo concert. Hmm. This is the brain trust in WWE. Anyway,

<v Speaker 1>be well. Stay safe. Have yourselves a great rest of

<v Speaker 1>your night. Go check out the last Dark Side of

<v Speaker 1>the Ring review, the finale. It's up on the channel

<v Speaker 1>now on Zach Gowen. For your listening pleasure. And any

<v Speaker 1>Jim Ross update? Yeah, I'll talk Jim Ross a little

<v Speaker 1>bit as well on the Uncrowned show tomorrow. When I

<v Speaker 1>get into the AEW stuff. There is an update on

<v Speaker 1>him from this past week. Hopefully. And an update on

<v Speaker 1>Kota Ibushi as well. That will just make you shake

<v Speaker 1>your head, man. Make you shake your head. We'll get

<v Speaker 1>into all that tomorrow on Uncrowned. Until then, take care, guys.
