<v Speaker 1>It's Monday Night Raw, everybody. It is the first Raw
<v Speaker 1>for the month of October. Yes, which also means we
<v Speaker 1>are less than a week away from Money in the Bank.
<v Speaker 1>And I will say that for a go-home episode, of
<v Speaker 1>which the objective is to really get you excited for
<v Speaker 1>the event coming up this weekend, eh, on that front,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they did what they needed to do. They
<v Speaker 1>did the bare minimum of what they needed to do.
<v Speaker 1>But we have the return of Roman Reigns. Another return.
<v Speaker 1>Had a lot of those this year. That's how they
<v Speaker 1>promoted it. The return of Roman Reigns. He was there.
<v Speaker 1>He was in the ring with LA Knight, who he
<v Speaker 1>is defending the World Heavyweight Championship against on Saturday. That
<v Speaker 1>turned out to be the highlight of the entire show.
<v Speaker 1>Was the face-off between the two of them on the
<v Speaker 1>whole big step down from last week's show. And look,
<v Speaker 1>I understand that you can't run people over with a
<v Speaker 1>car every week. You're not going to have an angle.
<v Speaker 1>Like we have with 9-4-6, you're not going to have
<v Speaker 1>some big cliffhanger angle at the end of the show
<v Speaker 1>every single week. I get that. But the wrestling matches
<v Speaker 1>we got last week were also really good. So like
<v Speaker 1>last week was big angle, great matches. The show just
<v Speaker 1>flew by. Doesn't always work out that way. I really
<v Speaker 1>enjoyed the show last week. And then today, this show
<v Speaker 1>here was kind of, you know, back to reality situation.
<v Speaker 1>We had some good wrestling on the show. I don't
<v Speaker 1>want to sit here and tell you that this was
<v Speaker 1>a terrible show. It wasn't a terrible show, but it
<v Speaker 1>was definitely not as interesting or as fun as last
<v Speaker 1>week's show was. I certainly don't want them running people
<v Speaker 1>down with a car every single week. We don't need that.
<v Speaker 1>But it just felt very lackluster. Yeah, there was somebody
<v Speaker 1>in the chat who was actually at the arena tonight.
<v Speaker 1>Shout out to that guy. He was at the show.
<v Speaker 1>He said he had a good time live, but he
<v Speaker 1>also admitted that the show was boring to be at
<v Speaker 1>in terms of what was going on there. And that's
<v Speaker 1>kind of how it came across watching on TV or
<v Speaker 1>on Netflix. I guess Netflix would be considered TV. Remember
<v Speaker 1>HBO's old slogan, it's not TV, it's HBO. But anyway,
<v Speaker 1>so yeah, this was not a very exciting show tonight.
<v Speaker 1>What we did get, though... Next week, I have to say,
<v Speaker 1>is looking up. Because next week, they are already promoting
<v Speaker 1>an Intercontinental Championship match. Chad Gable is going to put
<v Speaker 1>his title on the line against Ray Phoenix. Now, that's
<v Speaker 1>going to be good. I'm looking forward to that one.
<v Speaker 1>And also, we have 946 is going to be making
<v Speaker 1>their in-ring debut together as a unit in a six-man
<v Speaker 1>tag team match next week against The Usos and Solo Sakoa.
<v Speaker 1>who was abducted two weeks ago. We did not know
<v Speaker 1>what his status was. We did not hear from him
<v Speaker 1>last week. We did not have any sort of update
<v Speaker 1>on him last week. And then all of a sudden tonight,
<v Speaker 1>Roman Reigns is in the back with the Usos, and
<v Speaker 1>he says, you know what? There's going to be a
<v Speaker 1>match next week. I'm not going to be in it
<v Speaker 1>with you guys. This guy is. And they pan over,
<v Speaker 1>and there he is. He's in his suit, he's got
<v Speaker 1>his shades on, it's like nothing even happened. And so
<v Speaker 1>Solo is not only back, but he is back in
<v Speaker 1>the family, which he said he did not want to do.
<v Speaker 1>He did not want to go back to the bloodline.
<v Speaker 1>He even said, if you remember when he cut that
<v Speaker 1>promo in the crowd that time, when he said, not
<v Speaker 1>only am I not going back to the bloodline, but
<v Speaker 1>you can tell Roman to kiss my ass. Which wasn't
<v Speaker 1>all that long ago that he said that. But I
<v Speaker 1>guess given what happened with 946, he felt the need
<v Speaker 1>to Go back to the family. And it makes me
<v Speaker 1>wonder what his intentions actually are. So that match has
<v Speaker 1>already been set up for next week. Next week's show
<v Speaker 1>is looking a hell of a lot more interesting to
<v Speaker 1>me than the show we had tonight, which had one goal,
<v Speaker 1>which was get to Saturday. Get people interested in Money
<v Speaker 1>in the Bank. Put the finishing touches here on whatever
<v Speaker 1>these angles are going to be to build to these matches.
<v Speaker 1>And then coming out of that, we'll be able to
<v Speaker 1>move on. So I'm looking forward to that. We had
<v Speaker 1>a main event tonight between Becky Lynch and Liv Morgan.
<v Speaker 1>This was a number one contenders match. The winner of
<v Speaker 1>this match would be challenging Stephanie Viqueur this weekend for
<v Speaker 1>the Women's World Championship. It seemed obvious to anybody who
<v Speaker 1>was paying attention that this was going to end up
<v Speaker 1>being a triple threat match. Because all three women are involved.
<v Speaker 1>All three women have issues with each other. It wouldn't
<v Speaker 1>make any sense to just run Stephanie and Liv back again.
<v Speaker 1>We've already seen that. To do Stephanie and Becky... Two babyfaces? Sure,
<v Speaker 1>you could have done it, but Liv Morgan is smack
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of all of this. So of course
<v Speaker 1>you were going to end up with all three of
<v Speaker 1>them in the ring at the same time. And that
<v Speaker 1>is what happened. It went to a DQ when Stephanie
<v Speaker 1>got involved. Adam Pearce comes out because Stephanie beckoned him
<v Speaker 1>and said, I want a triple threat match at Money
<v Speaker 1>in the Bank. And so it was made official. And
<v Speaker 1>that is going to be our Women's World Championship match tomorrow.
<v Speaker 1>Those were really the big things. The big happenings on
<v Speaker 1>Raw tonight. There was a bunch of other matches. There
<v Speaker 1>were a bunch of other things. We'll go through all
<v Speaker 1>of it here. But that was the key stuff. And
<v Speaker 1>then we'll talk a little bit of Money in the Bank.
<v Speaker 1>This is your Monday Night Raw review. It is October 5th.
<v Speaker 1>Very memorable date in WWE history. It was actually on
<v Speaker 1>this date almost 30 years ago. 29 years ago today
<v Speaker 1>that That's gotta be Kane! And he makes his debut
<v Speaker 1>out with Paul Bear. He rips off the door. First
<v Speaker 1>ever Hell in a Cell match. Still to this day
<v Speaker 1>one of the top greatest matches in WWE history. Shawn
<v Speaker 1>Michaels and The Undertaker, Bad Blood, Kane. Still the greatest
<v Speaker 1>debut in WWE history. That was a very memorable night.
<v Speaker 1>Also memorable, unfortunately, for the news that Brian Pillman had
<v Speaker 1>passed away. So one of those things where I remember
<v Speaker 1>where I was on that night. Many of you perhaps
<v Speaker 1>remember where you were. But yeah, one year shy of
<v Speaker 1>the big 3-0. That's gotta be Kane. I don't know
<v Speaker 1>that there will be a debut that tops that. Just
<v Speaker 1>everything about that was just perfect. From the look, to
<v Speaker 1>the music, to the pyro, to him just being a
<v Speaker 1>badass and ripping the door off. Oh, it was so
<v Speaker 1>well done. Anyway, like and subscribe. Enough! Enough! Enough! Nico
<v Speaker 1>has said enough. Apparently Nico has had enough. Thank you, Nico.
<v Speaker 1>Nico went crazy with some of the Super Chats before.
<v Speaker 1>We got a lot of messages from him. So we're
<v Speaker 1>going to be going through all of that. But yes,
<v Speaker 1>I was going to mention subscribe and make sure that
<v Speaker 1>you turn the bell on for all notifications. So that
<v Speaker 1>way when new content goes up or I go live,
<v Speaker 1>you will be notified. So I don't know. The bell
<v Speaker 1>doesn't always go on for people. Make sure that notification
<v Speaker 1>bell is in the on position. Super chats are open.
<v Speaker 1>We do have a bonus goal going in the chat.
<v Speaker 1>We got a bunch of your messages and questions here
<v Speaker 1>to go through, which we will do. I do want
<v Speaker 1>to say thank you for some of the early birthday love.
<v Speaker 1>I got some kind messages here. So thank you, guys.
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate that. It's not official for another, what, 45
<v Speaker 1>minutes or so? We're getting started early here, though. Bring
<v Speaker 1>out the wheel. The birthday wheel. Hey, Cam. Shout out
<v Speaker 1>to Cam. Thank you for the five bucks. Let's find
<v Speaker 1>out what the likes goal is going to be. We
<v Speaker 1>got to do that before we move on here. We've
<v Speaker 1>got a bunch of entries on here. As you can tell,
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of different potential goals. Only one way to
<v Speaker 1>find out which one it's going to be. We have
<v Speaker 1>to take it for a spin. Spin, spin, spin. Hmm. 515.
<v Speaker 1>That is the big number. That is the most important
<v Speaker 1>number to pay attention to. 515 likes, we hit that,
<v Speaker 1>automatic be the booker. Although it's looking pretty good with
<v Speaker 1>the bonus goals, so we may get there yet. I
<v Speaker 1>just want to also thank everybody who tuned in to
<v Speaker 1>The Sound Duff this past weekend, episode 983. Got some
<v Speaker 1>good comments and feedback from you guys. Some of the
<v Speaker 1>clips have hit the channel. Other stuff, you've got to
<v Speaker 1>listen to the full show. Got some good questions in
<v Speaker 1>the mailbag as well. So if you have not had
<v Speaker 1>a chance to listen to it yet, that is up
<v Speaker 1>for you. Just make sure you check that out. Episode 983.
<v Speaker 1>Apple Podcasts, Spotify, wherever you get your podcasts from. Hey,
<v Speaker 1>Sports and Things, thank you. Robotoaster, thank you as well.
<v Speaker 1>Roderick's a fellow October... Is that a real word? Happy...
<v Speaker 1>It says fellow Octoberian... I don't know if that's a word.
<v Speaker 1>You could just say fellow October baby. How about that?
<v Speaker 1>All right, so last week, we all saw what happened
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the show. We saw another felony committed.
<v Speaker 1>Jacob Fatu run down by a mystery assailant until she
<v Speaker 1>popped out of the car. It was Jada Parker playing
<v Speaker 1>it as if, oh my goodness, I don't know what
<v Speaker 1>I did. I'm so sorry I didn't see you. I
<v Speaker 1>didn't mean to do it. Yes, she did. And then
<v Speaker 1>she left with 9-4-6. That was the big angle to
<v Speaker 1>close Monday Night Raw. How would they follow it up
<v Speaker 1>this week? That was the question. So we got a
<v Speaker 1>recap of all of the events in the parking garage,
<v Speaker 1>and then we see live Roman Reigns arrives, because he
<v Speaker 1>wasn't there last week. Roman Reigns pulls up in his SUV,
<v Speaker 1>and the Usos are there, and they want to talk
<v Speaker 1>to Roman about some stuff. Before they could really get
<v Speaker 1>deep into conversation, though, in the arena, we could hear
<v Speaker 1>LA Nights music. Roman's attention, so he was going to
<v Speaker 1>go off to go take care of some business.
<v Speaker 2>L.A.
<v Speaker 1>Knight makes his way out to the ring. Perhaps, I
<v Speaker 1>know some of you are keeping hope alive more than
<v Speaker 1>I am. Perhaps you're next World Heavyweight Champion. I'm going
<v Speaker 1>to try to stifle my laughter as I say that.
<v Speaker 1>He makes his way out to the ring. He says
<v Speaker 1>the members of the Bloodline are dropping left and right,
<v Speaker 1>but the only thing that matters is L.A. Knight and
<v Speaker 1>Roman Reigns at Money in the Bank. Roman, you see,
<v Speaker 1>is part of the establishment.
<v Speaker 2>L.A.
<v Speaker 1>Knight is here to tear down that establishment. Says, sure,
<v Speaker 1>946 might attack Roman. Hell, they might attack him too.
<v Speaker 1>But the difference between them is that Knight is used
<v Speaker 1>to living in the chaos. Out comes the World Heavyweight Champion.
<v Speaker 1>Takes his time. Makes his way out to the ring
<v Speaker 1>and he says, do I look like I'm being phased
<v Speaker 1>by any of this? Like any of this is bothering me?
<v Speaker 1>He was born in the fire. It doesn't matter if
<v Speaker 1>946 is doing this or that or LA Knight is
<v Speaker 1>running his mouth. Says, Knight thinks that Roman is distracted
<v Speaker 1>and now he's got a shot. He doesn't. Knight's been
<v Speaker 1>running his mouth about how he can't do anything on
<v Speaker 1>his own. Roman needs help. He can't do it by himself.
<v Speaker 1>Called Knight a hypocrite. Said in Mexico City he busted
<v Speaker 1>his ass in enemy territory. He defended his championship against Penta. Meanwhile,
<v Speaker 1>LA Knight, he said, took the bitch route. He took
<v Speaker 1>the low road. He dropped Roman where he stood. Knight
<v Speaker 1>has people thinking that they're on the same level. Could
<v Speaker 1>not be further from the truth. Said he's a doer.
<v Speaker 1>LA is a complainer. Night is just another egg in
<v Speaker 1>the omelet and Roman will break his bitch ass. I
<v Speaker 1>actually thought that was a pretty cool line. I don't
<v Speaker 1>know who came up with that. Probably not Roman, but
<v Speaker 1>whoever came up with that line, that was a good line.
<v Speaker 1>Roman said he's the only superstar, the only true champion,
<v Speaker 1>he's the head of the table, and then he asked St.
<v Speaker 1>Louis to acknowledge... Oh, they were in St. Louis? I
<v Speaker 1>didn't realize that. That's where Bad Blood was. Someone check
<v Speaker 1>on that for me. I'm almost positive that that Bad
<v Speaker 1>Blood show I just talked about, 29 years ago today,
<v Speaker 1>was in St. Louis. Okay, so that's weird. I didn't
<v Speaker 1>know it was literally in the same city, possibly in
<v Speaker 1>the same venue that they were in today. See, that
<v Speaker 1>I didn't realize. Okay, so that's crazy. So Roman goes
<v Speaker 1>to leave, and night stops him. And he said, the
<v Speaker 1>problem with Roman is that he's the most manufactured corporate
<v Speaker 1>puppet industry plant that he has ever seen. Someone heard
<v Speaker 1>what Conrad had to say. Conrad called Roman an industry plant.
<v Speaker 1>So as soon as I heard that, I said, well,
<v Speaker 1>I know where that line came from. Okay, so that
<v Speaker 1>Joe guy says, yes, it was in the same building.
<v Speaker 2>Wow.
<v Speaker 1>How crazy is that? Same, not even just the same city,
<v Speaker 1>the same building, the same ring. Man, St. Louis is
<v Speaker 1>a great wrestling city. A lot of history in St.
<v Speaker 2>Louis.
<v Speaker 1>Actually, the St. Louis Wrestling Hall of Fame, I was
<v Speaker 1>able to stop by there once. I was on a
<v Speaker 1>business trip in St. Louis, and I don't know where
<v Speaker 1>it is housed today. When I say the St. Louis
<v Speaker 1>Hall of Fame, it's not like it's its own building
<v Speaker 1>and you can go there and it's this big, to
<v Speaker 1>do or you can go around and see all the
<v Speaker 1>different exhibits when I went to go see it it
<v Speaker 1>was literally in the back of a pro wrestling memorabilia
<v Speaker 1>shop in the mall and I'm pretty sure it's not
<v Speaker 1>in that mall anymore so I don't know where it's
<v Speaker 1>been moved to but again it was like a corner
<v Speaker 1>and they had a ring bell uh old classic ring
<v Speaker 1>bell that was mounted on the wall and they had
<v Speaker 1>all sorts of photos and stuff and it was cool
<v Speaker 1>very small and sectioned off um didn't even know it
<v Speaker 1>was there I just happened to see a pro wrestling marquee,
<v Speaker 1>and I saw a bunch of merch, and I'm like, hey,
<v Speaker 1>that's me. And I go in there, and I'm like, oh,
<v Speaker 1>there's the St. Louis Wrestling Hall of Fame. So if
<v Speaker 1>you ever have the chance to go stop by and
<v Speaker 1>see it, wherever it may be these days, go check
<v Speaker 1>it out. It's pretty cool. So anyway, Knight said they
<v Speaker 1>shoved the rocket so far up Roman's ass, he's surprised
<v Speaker 1>that he's not spitting out rocket fuel. Or shitting it
<v Speaker 1>out would probably make more sense. On Saturday, he may
<v Speaker 1>be spitting out those big ultraviolet teeth of his as
<v Speaker 1>night drops him on his head and Roman can't do
<v Speaker 1>anything about it. It's just a fact of life. And
<v Speaker 1>so LA and I got the last word here and
<v Speaker 1>he just left Roman stewing as he took his leave.
<v Speaker 1>So I thought this was a nice bit of final hype,
<v Speaker 1>you know, for the world title match on Saturday. I
<v Speaker 1>think night has, honestly, I think he has done some
<v Speaker 1>of his best promo work in this company. during this
<v Speaker 1>feud some of the best promos that he has done
<v Speaker 1>on the main roster in wwe have taken place uh
<v Speaker 1>in the last couple of months and it has been
<v Speaker 1>about roman reigns and so looking at him in the
<v Speaker 1>ring face to face with roman and people are making
<v Speaker 1>noise and they're they were they were a little split
<v Speaker 1>but it's not like they were booing la night you
<v Speaker 1>know a lot of la night fans in the building
<v Speaker 1>a lot of roman fans in the building So it
<v Speaker 1>had that big title match main event feel to it,
<v Speaker 1>which hopefully that'll be the case on Saturday in New Orleans.
<v Speaker 1>So I enjoyed this. One thing that was also very
<v Speaker 1>clear to me watching this, the beginning of the show
<v Speaker 1>right on through the end of this segment, Roman could
<v Speaker 1>not give a single solitary shit about Jacob Fatu. Didn't
<v Speaker 1>bring it up. In the brief time he talked to
<v Speaker 1>the Usos in the back, never mentioned Jacob, didn't seem
<v Speaker 1>terribly bothered by it. He did finally mention Jacob in
<v Speaker 1>a later segment, but yeah, he didn't seem to care
<v Speaker 1>too much that this man was nearly murdered on the
<v Speaker 1>show last week. You know why? Because he doesn't care
<v Speaker 1>about anybody but himself. Characters never change. He's as selfish
<v Speaker 1>as ever. We had Javon Evans, and we had Penta.
<v Speaker 1>We're both in the men's Money in the Bank ladder
<v Speaker 1>match coming up this weekend against Braun Breaker, who's also in,
<v Speaker 1>and Austin Theory, who's definitely not in. So Maxine Dupree,
<v Speaker 1>she distracted the referee late in the match, which allowed
<v Speaker 1>Logan Paul to try to slide the brass knucks to
<v Speaker 1>Theory in the ring. He tossed them too far, though.
<v Speaker 1>And Javon Evans got possession of them instead, and he
<v Speaker 1>blasted Theory right in the head with the brass knucks,
<v Speaker 1>and he covered him, and he got the pin. to
<v Speaker 1>win it for his team. But then here comes Bronson Reed,
<v Speaker 1>and he cuts the celebration short, hits the jagged edge.
<v Speaker 1>Death Valley driver to Javon. One for Penta as well.
<v Speaker 1>Up goes Reed to the top. Tsunami splash down onto Penta.
<v Speaker 1>And then Bron Breaker pulls Evans over for one of
<v Speaker 1>his own. He's about to take a tsunami when we
<v Speaker 1>hear Oba Femi's music. Oba runs out. He attacks both Brawns.
<v Speaker 1>Logan Paul hits him from behind, and Oba just no-sells it.
<v Speaker 1>And Logan still can't take bumps, still has the brace
<v Speaker 1>on his arm. So he quickly scurries out of the ring.
<v Speaker 1>But that provides enough of a distraction for Reed and
<v Speaker 1>Breaker to attack Oba. Brawn goes for his spear, where
<v Speaker 1>he hits the ropes back and forth a few times. Oba, though,
<v Speaker 1>got out of the way, and he clotheslines them both down.
<v Speaker 1>Running uppercuts in opposite corners to both men. Breaker is
<v Speaker 1>outside the ring. Reed, though, attacks Oba. Now he's going
<v Speaker 1>up and he's setting up for a tsunami. But here
<v Speaker 1>comes Oba and he knocks him off the top all
<v Speaker 1>the way to the floor. It was like an uppercut thrust.
<v Speaker 1>And so he takes this bump Reed does out to
<v Speaker 1>the floor. He's got to be held back and restrained
<v Speaker 1>by his fellow Vision members. Oba takes the mic, says, Reed,
<v Speaker 1>you've got your work cut out for you this Saturday.
<v Speaker 1>Every other man is climbing a ladder, but you have
<v Speaker 1>a mountain to climb. And the only thing waiting for
<v Speaker 1>him at the top of that mountain is a fall
<v Speaker 1>from grace. And he was stupid enough to sign the
<v Speaker 1>contract last week. So here's what's going to happen. He's
<v Speaker 1>going to pay him back for the seven months he
<v Speaker 1>was gone and punish him accordingly and take him to
<v Speaker 1>the deepest waters where he cannot swim. And when he's
<v Speaker 1>done with him, the vision can have his spirit and
<v Speaker 1>Haman can have his mind. But at Money in the Bank,
<v Speaker 1>his ass belongs to Oba Femi. Oba's really good. Oba
<v Speaker 1>is really good. He's always been very strong on these promos,
<v Speaker 1>even through the Brock stuff. He just has a certain
<v Speaker 1>intensity to him. And when you get a guy that
<v Speaker 1>big all fired up like that, it comes across great.
<v Speaker 1>But his delivery, the fans are with him all the way.
<v Speaker 1>So it's not just that, you know, he goes in there.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look, he's not, it's not like he's the
<v Speaker 1>best wrestler in the company. His matches, we don't see
<v Speaker 1>him wrestle very often. His matches are fine. But again,
<v Speaker 1>it's all in how you carry yourself. You don't have
<v Speaker 1>to be the greatest wrestler on the roster. If you
<v Speaker 1>carry yourself like a star and you're pushed like a star,
<v Speaker 1>you're going to get over like a star, right? Nine
<v Speaker 1>times out of 10, unless you just don't have it.
<v Speaker 1>If you just don't have the charisma, you don't have
<v Speaker 1>what it takes, then I guess it won't work out.
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes the company pushes someone that they really want to
<v Speaker 1>get over, and they just don't get over organically. That's
<v Speaker 1>not an issue with Oba. So, so far so good
<v Speaker 1>with him on the main roster, but you do worry
<v Speaker 1>that can they keep him interesting enough? Can they program
<v Speaker 1>him with people that are the right people for him
<v Speaker 1>to be working with to where they can accentuate his strengths,
<v Speaker 1>keep him cool, right, in the eyes of the fans
<v Speaker 1>where they want to still support him and stay behind him.
<v Speaker 1>Look at Richie Rich over here dropping all this money
<v Speaker 1>on me. Hey, I just want you to know I
<v Speaker 1>think you rock. I don't mean the rock, a rock.
<v Speaker 1>Look at this guy. You rock. And I just wanted
<v Speaker 1>you to know that. Link Master says, Bronson Reed doesn't
<v Speaker 1>have it. You know, look, I won't go picking on
<v Speaker 1>Bronson Reed just yet, okay? Bronson Reed is in the
<v Speaker 1>midst of the biggest push of his life. Let's see
<v Speaker 1>how things go with Bronson Reed. I like Bronson Reed.
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying Bronson Reed is going to be the
<v Speaker 1>guy they build around. I'm not even saying he's definitely
<v Speaker 1>going to be a World Heavyweight Champion one day. Does
<v Speaker 1>he have the potential to be? Absolutely. I would like
<v Speaker 1>to see him succeed and get to that level. So
<v Speaker 1>I can't say that the guy doesn't have it. Maybe
<v Speaker 1>he has it, it just hasn't been brought out of
<v Speaker 1>him yet. Whatever it is. Eric Payne, thank you for
<v Speaker 1>the $ 100 red bomb. What's up, Solo? Raw was okay.
<v Speaker 1>I'm still excited for, or from, House of Glory Windy
<v Speaker 1>City Warfare. I might be Charles Mason's only fan that night. LOL,
<v Speaker 1>happy birthday. So you were the one. That was a
<v Speaker 1>fun show. That was a fun show in Chicago last week.
<v Speaker 1>Now we're getting ready for New York this Friday. We're
<v Speaker 1>already preparing for the next show. But Eric, thank you
<v Speaker 1>very much. Very kind of you. Look at that red
<v Speaker 1>bomb coming in from Eric Payne. Why hasn't he stolen
<v Speaker 1>Oba's shoes yet? It's true. He's supposed to be the
<v Speaker 1>tribal thief. He still has not stolen Oba's shoes. That's
<v Speaker 1>a good point. That was his whole gimmick. But again, like,
<v Speaker 1>Reed was out for a number of months, right? I mean,
<v Speaker 1>he got a push last year, too. And he wrestled Roman.
<v Speaker 1>He got a win over Roman. But then he got
<v Speaker 1>hurt very early in the year. Missed WrestleMania this year.
<v Speaker 1>He was gone for six months, seven months, whatever it was.
<v Speaker 1>And so now he comes back. He's slimmed down. He's
<v Speaker 1>in the best shape of his life. Let's see how
<v Speaker 1>far this guy can go. I think Triple H thinks
<v Speaker 1>very highly of him. I think he always did, even
<v Speaker 1>from his NXT days. He's had a couple of really
<v Speaker 1>disastrous injuries, you know, obviously coming off the cage in
<v Speaker 1>the War Games match and the bicep tear earlier this year.
<v Speaker 1>Hopefully he can stay healthy. Sometimes it's just a freak
<v Speaker 1>injury and you can't avoid it. If he can stay
<v Speaker 1>healthy and his body holds up, and again, in the
<v Speaker 1>shape that he's now in, I think that guy can
<v Speaker 1>hang with anybody. What really opened my eyes to him,
<v Speaker 1>and I was a fan of his work in NXT
<v Speaker 1>when he was the North American champion, but what really
<v Speaker 1>opened my eyes to him and did him, I think,
<v Speaker 1>a world of good, and this is the biggest thing
<v Speaker 1>when he came back to the company, the biggest value
<v Speaker 1>a few years ago that Braun Strowman brought was working
<v Speaker 1>with Bronson Reed and the program they had and the
<v Speaker 1>series of matches they had. Those matches were fun. Those
<v Speaker 1>are some of the most fun pieces of television on
<v Speaker 1>Raw at that time. just two monsters. I said at
<v Speaker 1>the time, it's like Godzilla and King Kong, just like
<v Speaker 1>going head to head. And then they came up with
<v Speaker 1>some creative stuff for them to do. And they're brawling
<v Speaker 1>in the back. And then, you know, the tsunami splash
<v Speaker 1>on the guy, he came off. What was that? It was,
<v Speaker 1>it was like a giant wall outside in the parking
<v Speaker 1>lot or whatever. That was the first time where I
<v Speaker 1>was like, okay, Bronson Reed is, is potentially going to
<v Speaker 1>be a player here on this roster. And they're putting
<v Speaker 1>them in a position to succeed. So I want to
<v Speaker 1>see him get to that level. I hope he can
<v Speaker 1>find it. And maybe one day he can be, you know,
<v Speaker 1>a world champion caliber guy that they have in that
<v Speaker 1>position in this company. Now is not that time. Doesn't
<v Speaker 1>mean a year from now that it won't be. He
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have to steal shoes to do it. Not Al Bundy.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, come on now. We got a pre-taped video.
<v Speaker 1>with comments from Liv Morgan addressing her two biggest haters,
<v Speaker 1>Becky Lynch and Stephanie Viqueur. She said that she's the
<v Speaker 1>most iconic and talented woman in WWE history. She would
<v Speaker 1>hate her too. Becky inserted herself into something she didn't
<v Speaker 1>belong in. Revenge, though, is what she does best. Liv
<v Speaker 1>is going to prove that she is better than Becky,
<v Speaker 1>and on Saturday she will end things with Stephanie. So again,
<v Speaker 1>that was coming up in our main event later in
<v Speaker 1>the show. Jackie Redmond was backstage, and she interviewed Dragon
<v Speaker 1>Lee and Rey Mysterio. Didn't take very long for Dominic
<v Speaker 1>Mysterio and JD McDonough to wander on over. This led
<v Speaker 1>to a tag team match being made, Rey Mysterio and
<v Speaker 1>Dragon Lee against McDonough and Dirty Dom. Elsewhere, Roman confronted
<v Speaker 1>the Usos in the Bloodline locker room, and he said,
<v Speaker 1>what's going on? What's going on lately with this 946 stuff?
<v Speaker 1>This isn't supposed to concern me. But, you know, he's
<v Speaker 1>in that. Finally, he shows some concern here. He brings
<v Speaker 1>up the name Jacob Fatu. He actually asks the Usos.
<v Speaker 1>How's Jacob? I was shocked that he even thought to
<v Speaker 1>ask about this man. This doesn't fit this character at all.
<v Speaker 1>But then he just turned around and buried the guy.
<v Speaker 1>So he asks about Jacob as if he's feigning concern
<v Speaker 1>for the man. Like, oh, is he okay? But then
<v Speaker 1>he turns around and he says, why are you guys
<v Speaker 1>taking orders from him? I made you captains. He's just
<v Speaker 1>a soldier. Like, this guy's probably laying in a fucking
<v Speaker 1>hospital bed somewhere. Watching this on some little shitty television.
<v Speaker 1>And Roman is like, why are you listening to this
<v Speaker 1>guy for? He's a nobody. You're the ones who I
<v Speaker 1>made captains. You're the ones who got the black Ula
<v Speaker 1>Fallas around your neck. And then he said, you know what?
<v Speaker 1>I'll be back. I'm going to go take care of
<v Speaker 1>this myself. And off he went. So then we had
<v Speaker 1>Sol Ruka. And we had Lola Weiss as tag team partners. Again,
<v Speaker 1>two women who will both be in the Women's Money
<v Speaker 1>in the Bank ladder match coming up this weekend. They
<v Speaker 1>took on Raquel Rodriguez and Roxanne Perez, the ladies of
<v Speaker 1>the Judgment Day. Nice burial of soldiers. Yeah, Roman buried
<v Speaker 1>the shit out of soldiers in that promo. He's just
<v Speaker 1>a soldier. I mean, the disgust in his voice when
<v Speaker 1>he said that. Jacob is a chain gang soldier. I
<v Speaker 1>think Jacob is going to be very happy when he
<v Speaker 1>hears the comments that Roman made. I would say he
<v Speaker 1>would link up with 946, but after what they did
<v Speaker 1>last week, it wouldn't make any sense. They ran me
<v Speaker 1>down with a car, but you know what? I think
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to side with these guys. So Roxanne tripped
<v Speaker 1>up Soul on the ropes late in the match when
<v Speaker 1>she went for the Soul Snatcher. And Raquel grabbed Soul
<v Speaker 1>into a Tejana Bomb. But before she could hit the
<v Speaker 1>Tejana Bomb, Soul escaped the attempt. Lola tagged in. And
<v Speaker 1>the way this all ended, it ended with a miscommunication
<v Speaker 1>between the two. And they were working well together. You know,
<v Speaker 1>Weiss and Ruka, they were working well together up until
<v Speaker 1>this point. But Lola then dropped her with an errant
<v Speaker 1>spinning back fist, which she did not intend to do.
<v Speaker 1>But down goes Sol Ruka. Roxanne then rolled up Lola
<v Speaker 1>into a bridging pin to win it for the Judgment Day.
<v Speaker 1>First loss for Lola Weiss. There was one moment here
<v Speaker 1>during this match on commentary where Wade Barrett called the
<v Speaker 1>match messy. And he's not talking about the footballer either. Messy,
<v Speaker 1>he called it, which I took that as his way
<v Speaker 1>of saying there were some ugly moments in this match. Now,
<v Speaker 1>Roxanne winning the match, if you're a Roxanne Perez fan
<v Speaker 1>and you've been watching wrestling for any length of time,
<v Speaker 1>here on this go-home show to see Roxanne pick up
<v Speaker 1>the win... if you want her to win the ladder
<v Speaker 1>match on Saturday, probably gives you pause. Like, oh no.
<v Speaker 1>She stood tall going into this weekend. That's not good
<v Speaker 1>for Roxanne Perez. She's still my pick, though, to win
<v Speaker 1>the briefcase. I mean, it was my prediction so long ago.
<v Speaker 1>It's been my prediction all year. I can't go back
<v Speaker 1>on it now. I still think she's the most sensible
<v Speaker 1>pick of all the women that are in that ladder match.
<v Speaker 1>She's the one that still makes the most sense to
<v Speaker 1>me and the one who I think stands to benefit
<v Speaker 1>the most. For someone who has done the least this year.
<v Speaker 1>Through no fault of her own. But she has really
<v Speaker 1>been an afterthought in many ways when it comes to
<v Speaker 1>the Judgment Day stuff. If anybody could use a win
<v Speaker 1>in that match, it's Roxanne Perez. And back to the
<v Speaker 1>Bloodline locker room. Remember, Roman had left earlier and said,
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to go take care of something, right? So
<v Speaker 1>we come back to the Bloodline locker room here. And
<v Speaker 1>Roman has returned with Adam Pearce. And they want to
<v Speaker 1>settle things with 9-4-6, and Pierce has enough sensibility to say, well,
<v Speaker 1>this will probably be taken care of in a court
<v Speaker 1>of law. But, if that's what you want, next week
<v Speaker 1>on Raw, it will be 9-4-6, three on three, against
<v Speaker 1>the Bloodline. And the Usos were all excited to be
<v Speaker 1>teaming up with the OTC. And Roman, he all but
<v Speaker 1>laughed in their faces. Are you on drugs? Do you
<v Speaker 1>honestly believe that Roman Reigns is going to wrestle two matches?
<v Speaker 1>on Monday Night Raw in the span of less than
<v Speaker 1>a month? You must be high. No, that is not happening.
<v Speaker 1>So Roman, he says, well, it's not going to be me.
<v Speaker 1>It's going to be him. And the camera pans over
<v Speaker 1>and we see Solo Soko, who just like that, is
<v Speaker 1>back on TV after being abducted a couple of weeks ago.
<v Speaker 2>Remember?
<v Speaker 1>Social media video they posted after Raw two weeks ago. Like,
<v Speaker 1>we were wondering, what happened to Solo? And they posted
<v Speaker 1>that video online showing 946 takes the bag off his head,
<v Speaker 1>and they forced him to basically walk home. They're like, go,
<v Speaker 1>start walking. And Solo starts walking, and that's the last
<v Speaker 1>we saw of him. Maybe it took this long, I guess,
<v Speaker 1>for him to make it to the arena. I don't know.
<v Speaker 1>But he was standing there. He was in his threads.
<v Speaker 1>And again, he had his shades on and everything. He
<v Speaker 1>didn't speak. It was very brief, too. Like, they cut
<v Speaker 1>to him. And within three or four seconds, they just
<v Speaker 1>cut away to the next segment. It was very, very quick.
<v Speaker 1>So he is all of a sudden back in the fold,
<v Speaker 1>at least for one week. Next week on Raw, he's
<v Speaker 1>going to team up with these guys, with his brothers. And,
<v Speaker 1>you know, with the PLE taking place this weekend, I
<v Speaker 1>wasn't expecting them, first of all, to announce anything. A
<v Speaker 1>match like this for Raw next week without first getting
<v Speaker 1>to Money in the Bank and letting things play out,
<v Speaker 1>making people think maybe 9-4-6 is going to play some
<v Speaker 1>kind of role in the main event, which they still
<v Speaker 1>very well might. But I wasn't expecting them to announce
<v Speaker 1>a match like this a week in advance, with Money
<v Speaker 1>in the Bank first coming up this weekend. And I
<v Speaker 1>also figured if they abducted Solo and we didn't see
<v Speaker 1>him last week, they probably would hold him off until
<v Speaker 1>Money in the Bank comes. Maybe he's not going to
<v Speaker 1>play a role of any kind in the match, and
<v Speaker 1>so he's not going to be on the show. But
<v Speaker 1>that's where kind of my mind was after the angle
<v Speaker 1>that they shot. You know, you kind of keep people guessing.
<v Speaker 1>Is he going to show up? Is he going to
<v Speaker 1>play a role? Because not only does he have the
<v Speaker 1>history with Roman, and he didn't want to go back
<v Speaker 1>to the family, but he's become really good friends with
<v Speaker 1>LA Knight. And it makes you wonder, is Solo going
<v Speaker 1>to return on the show? And what's he going to
<v Speaker 1>do if he returns on the show? And instead, he
<v Speaker 1>just popped up on TV tonight for four seconds. And
<v Speaker 1>that was it. So that was a surprise. I didn't
<v Speaker 1>think that was going to play out that way. We
<v Speaker 1>had the AAA Cruiserweight Champion, Ray Phoenix. I mean, basically,
<v Speaker 1>this has become a Cruiserweight title within WWE. Because the
<v Speaker 1>man said he's going to be defending this title on Raw.
<v Speaker 1>He's going to be defending this title on SmackDown. And,
<v Speaker 1>of course, he'll be defending the title in AAA. It
<v Speaker 1>is basically the return of the cruiserweight belt in this company. However,
<v Speaker 1>the belt was not on the line here in this match.
<v Speaker 1>This was non-title. He went one-on-one with Ethan Page. Phoenix
<v Speaker 1>hit an angel's wings late in the match for a
<v Speaker 1>near fall. They wound up on the ropes. Ethan tried
<v Speaker 1>for an avalanche power slam. Phoenix, though, slid out onto
<v Speaker 1>his feet and then kicked him in the head. He
<v Speaker 1>got Ethan in position for a Mexican muscle buster. Page, though, escaped.
<v Speaker 1>He went for a fisherman's suplex. Phoenix, though, countered that
<v Speaker 1>into a cradle for the flash pin, which caught Ethan
<v Speaker 1>by surprise. They had a solid match. That's the extent
<v Speaker 1>to what I would call it. It was a solid match.
<v Speaker 1>It was not one of Phoenix's more exciting matches that
<v Speaker 1>he's had recently. You know, it's been a couple of
<v Speaker 1>months since It's been over two months since Ethan Page
<v Speaker 1>has won a match on Monday Night Raw. You'd have
<v Speaker 1>to go all the way back to July for the
<v Speaker 1>last time he won a match on this show. And
<v Speaker 1>they've also done these segments now over and over and
<v Speaker 1>over again where he has been teasing coming after Chad
<v Speaker 1>Gable in the Intercontinental title. And so it's a little
<v Speaker 1>curious why they do this match here. And even though
<v Speaker 1>he's been teasing a match with Chad for the IC title,
<v Speaker 1>they put him in a match here against the Cruiserweight champion, non-title,
<v Speaker 1>and he gets beat. So I'm not really sure how
<v Speaker 1>that's supposed to work. I just really hope that they
<v Speaker 1>heat this guy back up soon. He should be doing
<v Speaker 1>more than what they have him doing. My guess is
<v Speaker 1>they had plans for him and Rusev to do more
<v Speaker 1>tag team stuff. Rusev had a bit of an injury.
<v Speaker 1>I think he's okay now. They might just be waiting
<v Speaker 1>to reintroduce him creatively. But I think they had more
<v Speaker 1>plans for those two. And Rusev getting hurt, they kind
<v Speaker 1>of were stuck in a bit of a rut and
<v Speaker 1>didn't maybe know what to do in the interim with
<v Speaker 1>Ethan Page. So I kind of feel like he's probably
<v Speaker 1>become a victim of that as well. But hopefully they
<v Speaker 1>can heat him back up soon. And I mentioned earlier,
<v Speaker 1>Gable and Phoenix are wrestling next week for the Intercontinental Champion.
<v Speaker 1>It's going to be fucking great. What's not so great
<v Speaker 1>is that they had Chad Gable come out during one
<v Speaker 1>of the commercial breaks to announce this. Because I noticed Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I'm still watching Raw with the VPN. I don't get
<v Speaker 1>the commercials, but what I've been getting is that countdown.
<v Speaker 1>And this has been like the last couple of weeks.
<v Speaker 1>I don't really see what happens. Like sometimes they used
<v Speaker 1>to cut back to the match or they would have
<v Speaker 1>Byron Saxton doing an interview with somebody in the building.
<v Speaker 1>And they didn't have any of that tonight. I just
<v Speaker 1>saw the little countdown clock and they played that animation
<v Speaker 1>over and over again. So I didn't even see Gable's promo.
<v Speaker 1>Somebody mentioned, hey, Gable came out and he challenged Phoenix
<v Speaker 1>to a title match. And I'm like, oh, okay, I
<v Speaker 1>guess he must have come out during a commercial break.
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, that match is going to be fucking awesome.
<v Speaker 1>So we go back to the Judgment Day Clubhouse. They're
<v Speaker 1>all standing around and J.D. McDonough receives a package, a
<v Speaker 1>special delivery. And it turned out to be a box
<v Speaker 1>with a Funko Pop inside of him and his giant
<v Speaker 1>melon head. Courtesy of Joe Hendry. He was not happy
<v Speaker 1>about this. He said, this doesn't even look like me.
<v Speaker 1>And I was thinking about that. I said, you know,
<v Speaker 1>if you really look at these Funko Pops, do any
<v Speaker 1>Funko Pops really look like the person they're portraying? I
<v Speaker 1>feel like it's a rare thing. Where the Funko Pop
<v Speaker 1>really does resemble the person that it's supposed to be.
<v Speaker 2>I have one pair of skinny jeans and I'm going
<v Speaker 2>to wear them every week just to piss you off.
<v Speaker 1>Like if they made a Funko Pop with Big Dave
<v Speaker 1>here and his skinny jeans, you know, it probably wouldn't
<v Speaker 1>even look like him. It would just look like a
<v Speaker 1>guy wearing jeans. Switch to New Zealand when you use
<v Speaker 1>the VPN. You know what? You may be right. I've
<v Speaker 1>been using the UK. The UK Docklands. server. So you
<v Speaker 1>may be right. It may depend on the server you choose.
<v Speaker 1>I may have to try that next time. I'll try
<v Speaker 1>the New Zealand server. Are Funko Pops still popular? You're
<v Speaker 1>asking the wrong guy. I mean, I've been gifted a
<v Speaker 1>few over the years. I don't really collect them. So
<v Speaker 1>there are people who are hardcore Funko collectors. You're better
<v Speaker 1>off asking them. I don't get the sense that they're
<v Speaker 1>as popular as they used to be, but they're probably
<v Speaker 1>still fairly popular. I think people still collect them. We
<v Speaker 1>got any Funko Pop collectors in the chat? Joe says,
<v Speaker 1>I was using the UK as well. I switched to Italy. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>the one thing that you got to be careful of,
<v Speaker 1>because I know there were some people who were their
<v Speaker 1>VP and they were like, oh, it stopped working. And
<v Speaker 1>What happens is I think the more that you go
<v Speaker 1>and choose different servers, they do have mechanisms in place
<v Speaker 1>where they could kind of detect it. And if that happens,
<v Speaker 1>and I tell people if that happens, the easiest solution,
<v Speaker 1>just create a new profile on Netflix because you can
<v Speaker 1>create separate profiles. So if you create a new profile,
<v Speaker 1>it'll work. But you don't want to be popping back
<v Speaker 1>and forth between too many servers. Find one that you like.
<v Speaker 1>And try to stick to that one. But yeah, I
<v Speaker 1>may have to try that. Marquand says, I have more
<v Speaker 1>Funko Pops than I care to admit. Look, people collect
<v Speaker 1>this stuff. That's fine. I mean, they collect all kinds
<v Speaker 1>of things. It just feels to me like the Funko craze,
<v Speaker 1>it peaked. Like WWE a few years ago. And so
<v Speaker 1>they might still be popular, but they're kind of off
<v Speaker 1>the peak now. I don't hear about them too much.
<v Speaker 1>We had Ray Mysterio and we had Dragon Lee teaming
<v Speaker 1>up to take on Dominic Mysterio and JD McDonough. Ray
<v Speaker 1>sent McDonough to the floor with a Rana and he
<v Speaker 1>caught Dom with a Tornado DDT. So he was crawling
<v Speaker 1>to try to make the hot tag to Dragon Lee.
<v Speaker 1>Before he could, though, Big Cass showed up and he
<v Speaker 1>pulled Lee down off the apron right before he can
<v Speaker 1>make the tag. Cass then dumped Dragon Lee over the
<v Speaker 1>barricade into the front row. Ray sees this, he does
<v Speaker 1>a springboard out over the top rope, and Cass caught him,
<v Speaker 1>kind of. He stumbled a little bit, but whatever, he
<v Speaker 1>caught him. And he went to go send him into
<v Speaker 1>the ring post. Ray wiggled out, though. He pushed Cass
<v Speaker 1>forward face-first into the post instead. Meanwhile, back in the ring,
<v Speaker 1>McDonough had blind-tagged himself into the match, and he used
<v Speaker 1>his giant head to take out Ray Mysterio, and he
<v Speaker 1>pinned him. He pinned the Hall of Famer.
<v Speaker 2>J.D.
<v Speaker 1>McDonough won a match. Usually, he's the fall guy in
<v Speaker 1>these situations, but he actually won the match here for
<v Speaker 1>his team. After it was over, they got the hell
<v Speaker 1>out of there. Cass got in the ring, and he
<v Speaker 1>was about to kill Rey Mysterio, Dragon Lee, though, maybe.
<v Speaker 1>the save. Cass, though, hit a big side slam on
<v Speaker 1>Dragon Lee. And he teased that he was going to
<v Speaker 1>go leave. But then he stopped. And he turned back around.
<v Speaker 1>And he mowed them both down with one boot. Two guys,
<v Speaker 1>one boot. And down they go. And then he took
<v Speaker 1>his leave. See, and that he needed that because I
<v Speaker 1>saw the comments last week. We talked about this during
<v Speaker 1>the review one week ago right here on this stream
<v Speaker 1>that there were people who were panicking. Oh, that's the
<v Speaker 1>end of Big Cass. My God, he got beat by
<v Speaker 1>Dragon Lee. He did the job to Dragon Lee. And
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I usually I'm in the position where I'm
<v Speaker 1>pointing out like, OK, the booking of this person is terrible.
<v Speaker 1>What are they doing? But in this case, it's like,
<v Speaker 1>all right, Cass has lost two matches on Raw. one
<v Speaker 1>of which was a triple threat match, right? It was
<v Speaker 1>a qualifier. I think it was a Money in the
<v Speaker 1>Bank qualifier. And that was after he had beaten Javon Evans,
<v Speaker 1>and Javon kind of got his win back. And then
<v Speaker 1>he lost. It was almost like a slip on a
<v Speaker 1>banana peel type finish. He lost to Dragon Lee, who
<v Speaker 1>is in the middle of being pushed. So I'm like,
<v Speaker 1>it's not the end of the world, right? Let's let
<v Speaker 1>things play out a little bit longer. Maybe he'll get
<v Speaker 1>his revenge. So what happened? He got his heat back
<v Speaker 1>this week. He was embarrassed last week, and he got
<v Speaker 1>his heat back this week. I don't know where Big
<v Speaker 1>Cass is going to end up in the whole spectrum
<v Speaker 1>of things in three months or six months. I don't
<v Speaker 1>fucking know. But don't write the guy off. They haven't
<v Speaker 1>done anything yet to show me that they've given up
<v Speaker 1>on him or that they're burying him or anything like that.
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to hear any of that nonsense. I
<v Speaker 1>still maintain the Judgment Day should not be a thing.
<v Speaker 1>The Judgment Day should be disbanded, if we're being honest.
<v Speaker 1>It should not be a thing anymore on this show.
<v Speaker 1>But it is. And I don't think that's going to end.
<v Speaker 1>I think they like the Judgment Day. And so if
<v Speaker 1>that is the case, then what it is time for
<v Speaker 1>is for the Judgment Day to get some new blood.
<v Speaker 1>I could see the Judgment Day being something that could
<v Speaker 1>benefit someone like Big Cass in a way that it
<v Speaker 1>benefited someone like Damian Priest. You know, the big guy
<v Speaker 1>in the crew, Dominic Mysterio, the little shitheel that he is.
<v Speaker 1>always getting his ass kicked, always getting beat. He's lost
<v Speaker 1>so many matches this year. Now imagine if he took
<v Speaker 1>on Cass as like a heater, right? Cass can still wrestle.
<v Speaker 1>But if he has big Cass watching his back and
<v Speaker 1>he can hide behind this guy, but also you have
<v Speaker 1>these backstage segments where they can flesh out his character
<v Speaker 1>a little bit, let him speak, let him interact with
<v Speaker 1>other people. What do we see from him so far?
<v Speaker 1>He shows up, his eyes look like they're fucking bugging
<v Speaker 1>out of his head. He's getting the monster push, kind of.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, not really, but you know what I mean.
<v Speaker 1>But I think something like that could really benefit him.
<v Speaker 1>In the way that all those Bloodline segments benefited Jimmy
<v Speaker 1>and Jay and Sammy and all those guys, it just
<v Speaker 1>allows you to see a different side of these people
<v Speaker 1>and hear from them. Kind of the more entertaining side
<v Speaker 1>of them. I think he would be someone who could
<v Speaker 1>benefit from that if they insist on keeping this group together.
<v Speaker 1>Right now, he's a lone wolf. I don't know long
<v Speaker 1>term that that's the best plan for him, though. We
<v Speaker 1>got a pre-taped Becky Lynch promo talking about how it's
<v Speaker 1>classic Liv Morgan to complain about things. She always plays
<v Speaker 1>victim when somebody fights back. Becky is going to hold
<v Speaker 1>her feet to the flames, though. Make sure that title matters.
<v Speaker 1>That title holds no space for mediocrity. When she beats Liv,
<v Speaker 1>she'll face Stephanie at Money in the Bank. It's less
<v Speaker 1>about her winning the title from Stephanie and more about
<v Speaker 1>making sure that Liv does not.
<v Speaker 2>Oh, there it is.
<v Speaker 1>Ka-ching. There he goes. Seth Rollins making another appearance. You
<v Speaker 1>notice that was the Be the Booker Money in the
<v Speaker 1>Bank briefcase. Very appropriate as we are just days away
<v Speaker 1>from Money in the Bank. And so what that means is...
<v Speaker 1>We are one specific super chat away from a guaranteed
<v Speaker 1>round of Be The Booker. And that is a minimum
<v Speaker 1>magenta bomb. Magenta or higher. We get one of those.
<v Speaker 1>We are guaranteed one round of Be The Booker. So
<v Speaker 1>we'll see if anybody cashes in their money in the bank.
<v Speaker 1>We are undefeated so far, by the way, in money
<v Speaker 1>in the bank cash-ins.
<v Speaker 2>Toastie, yes. Toastie.
<v Speaker 1>So, Bayley. Bayley and Lyra Valkyria. These two have been
<v Speaker 1>going at it now for what feels like years. Not
<v Speaker 1>a big fan of the last match they had on TV.
<v Speaker 1>I thought it was pretty dull, actually. But Lyra was
<v Speaker 1>being interviewed backstage by Byron Saxton. And she's like, what
<v Speaker 1>do I have to do to get ahead? What do
<v Speaker 1>I have to do here in this place? Right? So
<v Speaker 1>then Bayley shows up. And Bayley wanted to let her
<v Speaker 1>know that it ain't over between the two of us.
<v Speaker 1>Our feud is not yet over. It'll be over when
<v Speaker 1>I say it's over. And then off she goes. Now
<v Speaker 1>on this subject, I want to bring up a report
<v Speaker 1>from a few days ago from WrestleVotes Radio, but before
<v Speaker 1>I do.
<v Speaker 2>It's the amazing Gunthar. Jerry Lawler loves Gunthar the Magnificent.
<v Speaker 1>All hail Gunthar. I just noticed, not only did J-Man
<v Speaker 1>cash in his Be The Booker in the bank, but
<v Speaker 1>when he did so, he hit the 10 out of
<v Speaker 1>10 on the bonus goal. He got a two-for-one special there.
<v Speaker 1>So with that one super jet, J-Man just got us
<v Speaker 1>two rounds of Be The Bookers. Everybody give J-Man a
<v Speaker 1>collective round of applause here. I don't know how you
<v Speaker 1>pulled that off. It was very slick. I didn't even
<v Speaker 1>notice that. So there you go. We got at least
<v Speaker 1>two rounds coming our way. Thank you, J-Man. He says,
<v Speaker 1>got it. Very simple message, he says. Just got it.
<v Speaker 1>Set up a goal for three. Yeah, well, I'll take
<v Speaker 1>this one. This one's already been achieved, so we can
<v Speaker 1>stop that one. And yeah, we'll set one more up here.
<v Speaker 1>I think we had four a few weeks ago and
<v Speaker 1>then we have four rounds. This will be a, let's
<v Speaker 1>see here. Bonus bonus be the booker. There you go.
<v Speaker 1>All right. So a new, a new goal has been set.
<v Speaker 1>What I was going to say is, so there was
<v Speaker 1>a report a few days ago from wrestle votes radio, uh,
<v Speaker 1>that there has been a creative idea within WWE, uh,
<v Speaker 1>pitched for Bailey and Lyra to meet in a blow
<v Speaker 1>off stipulation match, uh, that would be considered, quote, rare
<v Speaker 1>for the women's division. The same source says that the
<v Speaker 1>stipulation would not be a Hell in a Cell match,
<v Speaker 1>which is good because, I'm sorry, this feud does not
<v Speaker 1>warrant Hell in a Cell. Plus, we just had Hell
<v Speaker 1>in a Cell at SummerSlam. We don't need to see
<v Speaker 1>it again so fast. We've got war games coming up.
<v Speaker 1>We don't need that. It's too similar. But I was thinking, like, okay,
<v Speaker 1>it's rare. It's the blow-off of the feud. What kind
<v Speaker 1>of stipulation could we be looking at here? One stipulation
<v Speaker 1>I'm really hoping it's not is an Iron Woman match.
<v Speaker 1>Like a 30-minute Iron Man match. Especially after the last
<v Speaker 1>match these two had, I don't see that being a
<v Speaker 1>good idea. I don't know that I want 30 minutes
<v Speaker 1>of that after the last match that I saw them have.
<v Speaker 1>So I'm hoping it's not that. Honestly, the stipulation that
<v Speaker 1>I thought of, and I'm just a mark for this stipulation...
<v Speaker 1>We don't get to see it very often and it
<v Speaker 1>may not make for, you know, the, the most technically
<v Speaker 1>sound match. I like buried alive matches. I do. I
<v Speaker 1>don't know what it is. You set that, you know,
<v Speaker 1>the mound of dirt up and you can go ahead
<v Speaker 1>and brawl and do your thing, but you got to
<v Speaker 1>work your way over towards there and you kind of
<v Speaker 1>climb up the mound and you got to knock them
<v Speaker 1>into the, the fucking, you know, the burial plot. You
<v Speaker 1>got to, The shovels are there. I like, and maybe
<v Speaker 1>that would be considered my guilty pleasure stipulation in wrestling.
<v Speaker 1>Have we ever seen a buried alive match with two women?
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe we have. So my vote goes to,
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying I think that's what it's going to be,
<v Speaker 1>but I'm just saying my vote goes to buried alive.
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people here are saying hair versus hair.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look, I suppose if one of the women
<v Speaker 1>is eager to cut their hair, if Lyra's like, hey,
<v Speaker 1>I'll cut my hair for the story, then yeah, that
<v Speaker 1>would be a big one to do. I don't see
<v Speaker 1>Bayley shaving her head. But I also feel like that's
<v Speaker 1>been done before. Buried Alive would truly be rare. It
<v Speaker 1>would be a rare stipulation at all, let alone with
<v Speaker 1>the women. Loser Leaves Town. People are saying Loser Leaves Town.
<v Speaker 1>Strap Match. Strap match? Who cares about a strap match?
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to see that. That's fucking boring. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>let's not do that. Street fight? Yeah, street fight's not rare.
<v Speaker 1>You guys gotta come up with better ideas than that. Man. says,
<v Speaker 1>but we see buried alive matches every week on television.
<v Speaker 1>That's true. That's true, but not with the dirt and
<v Speaker 1>the shovels, though. You're not wrong, though. Jada Parker, she
<v Speaker 1>FaceTimed in a phone promo with the rest of 946
<v Speaker 1>out in the parking area. Royce Keyes said that they're
<v Speaker 1>going to take the bloodline out one by one. And
<v Speaker 1>Jada said, nobody is safe. And that was the last
<v Speaker 1>that we saw or heard from the 946 crew for
<v Speaker 1>the remainder of this show. I thought that this was
<v Speaker 1>a very lackluster follow-up to that big angle from last
<v Speaker 1>week in terms of the why. You know, why did
<v Speaker 1>she show up? I mean, I pointed out that Jada
<v Speaker 1>and OTM, they were allied in NXT at one time.
<v Speaker 1>And so, you may know that, and I may know that,
<v Speaker 1>but in the context of this story here, why is
<v Speaker 1>she here? Why is she here? Why does she link
<v Speaker 1>up with 946? We got none of that. It's just,
<v Speaker 1>nobody is safe. Nobody is safe. Okay. Very, very lackluster
<v Speaker 1>follow-up to what was a really big, fun angle at
<v Speaker 1>the end of last week's show. Paul Heyman. He was
<v Speaker 1>standing backstage... in the locker room watching TV, as he
<v Speaker 1>has been doing pretty much every week since Brock Lesnar retired.
<v Speaker 1>This man doesn't know what to do with himself. He's
<v Speaker 1>just standing around, literally standing around, looking at a flat
<v Speaker 1>screen every single week. And so Bronson Reed walks in.
<v Speaker 1>Usually it's Bron Breaker who walks in, but this time
<v Speaker 1>it was Bronson Reed. Bronson Reed walks in. And he
<v Speaker 1>wanted to let Heyman know that I'm not just gonna
<v Speaker 1>beat Oba. But before he could finish that thought, Heyman
<v Speaker 1>cut him off and said that he hopes that he does. Oba,
<v Speaker 1>he says, is the ruler. He's the bringer of war.
<v Speaker 1>Reed is gonna have to hit Tsunami. After Tsunami. After Tsunami.
<v Speaker 1>After Tsunami. After Tsunami.
<v Speaker 2>After Tsunami. After Tsunami.
<v Speaker 1>After tsunami, after tsunami, after tsunami. On and on and
<v Speaker 1>on and on he goes. Yes, it was just that annoying.
<v Speaker 1>He went overboard with this. He kept saying it over
<v Speaker 1>and over and over again just to get his point across.
<v Speaker 1>But that's what he said he's going to have to do.
<v Speaker 1>You're going to have to just hit 25 fucking tsunamis
<v Speaker 1>on this guy. Says that he was humbled by Oba.
<v Speaker 1>For 40 years, he's taken shots, he's come back and
<v Speaker 1>become more powerful, but not this time. Oba showed him
<v Speaker 1>that Brock Lesnar was just another opponent for him to beat.
<v Speaker 1>If Reed doesn't deliver tsunami after tsunami, he will lose.
<v Speaker 1>And he left, and at that point, the camera kind
<v Speaker 1>of turned, and we saw what he was looking at
<v Speaker 1>on the TV screen was the end of the Hell
<v Speaker 1>in a Cell match between Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi
<v Speaker 1>from SummerSlam on a loop. Like the very end when
<v Speaker 1>he hit the fall from grace, just being looped over
<v Speaker 1>and over and over again. And then in our main event,
<v Speaker 1>we had Becky Lynch one-on-one with Liv Morgan in a
<v Speaker 1>number one contenders match with the winner challenging Stephanie Viqueur
<v Speaker 1>at Money in the Bank for the Women's World Championship.
<v Speaker 1>Liv sent Becky flying over the announce desk probably midway
<v Speaker 1>through this. Becky took hellacious bump over the desk onto
<v Speaker 1>the floor and almost got counted out too, but she
<v Speaker 1>was able to make it back inside. So Morgan hit
<v Speaker 1>the three amigos. She headed up North for a frog splash.
<v Speaker 1>Becky cut her off though, and then superplexed her and
<v Speaker 1>rolled right into a DDT for a near fall. Becky
<v Speaker 1>went for a cross arm breaker before transitioning into the
<v Speaker 1>disarm her and Morgan bit at Becky's leg to break
<v Speaker 1>the hold. And then Liv got her locked in a
<v Speaker 1>half crab. Becky was able to roll out of that.
<v Speaker 1>So she went for a manhandle slam. She got distracted, though,
<v Speaker 1>by Raquel Rodriguez, the Intercontinental Champion, who she spotted walking
<v Speaker 1>down to the ring. So while Rodriguez was distracting the referee,
<v Speaker 1>who was Jessica Carr, Roxanne Perez showed up out of nowhere,
<v Speaker 1>and she attacks Becky. Morgan then hit Becky with a
<v Speaker 1>sunset bomb for a near fall. So Liv went for oblivion. Lynch, though,
<v Speaker 1>was able to counter with a manhandle slam. Becky goes
<v Speaker 1>for the pin. Raquel reaches in. She places Liv's foot
<v Speaker 1>on the bottom rope for the break. So Becky attacks
<v Speaker 1>them both outside. She knocks Liv down, and she's heading
<v Speaker 1>up top. Roxanne distracts the referee again. Now, why they
<v Speaker 1>haven't been tossed at this point, I have no idea.
<v Speaker 1>But she distracts the referee. That allows Raquel to come
<v Speaker 1>back with a Tejana bomb on Becky. Jessica Carr saw
<v Speaker 1>none of this. So Stephanie Viqueur comes out. She's seen enough.
<v Speaker 1>She attacks Roxanne. She got Jessica to eject both of them, finally,
<v Speaker 1>which infuriated Liv Morgan. She's yelling at Stephanie. Becky comes
<v Speaker 1>charging in at Liv. Liv, though, moves out of the way,
<v Speaker 1>and then Becky inadvertently strikes Stephanie. Uh-oh. We know that's
<v Speaker 1>not going to lead to anything good. Becky then hits
<v Speaker 1>Liv with a manhandle slam. Stephanie jumps in the ring,
<v Speaker 1>and she attacks both women from behind. And that's how
<v Speaker 1>we get to the three-way. I was wondering, how are
<v Speaker 1>they going to do this? We don't have time limits
<v Speaker 1>in WWE, so it's not going to be a time
<v Speaker 1>limit draw. It's got to be somebody runs in. There's
<v Speaker 1>a double DQ. They brawl, and they both get counted out.
<v Speaker 1>Some bullshit is going to have to happen here, but
<v Speaker 1>we all know where this was going to go. This
<v Speaker 1>is how they got there. Stephanie gets in. She attacks
<v Speaker 1>them both. The referee calls for the bell. And so
<v Speaker 1>we have, basically the match got thrown out, not even
<v Speaker 1>a double disqualification, it's just a no contest, the whole
<v Speaker 1>fucking thing got thrown away. So after the match, Stephanie
<v Speaker 1>gets on the mic, and she calls out Adam Pearce,
<v Speaker 1>and she demands that he make a triple threat match
<v Speaker 1>for Money in the Bank. She will defend her world
<v Speaker 1>championship against both Liv Morgan and Becky Lynch. And after
<v Speaker 1>Adam Pearce checks with her to make sure that that's
<v Speaker 1>what she wants, he makes it official, and so the
<v Speaker 1>match is made. And Stephanie then, for good measure, she
<v Speaker 1>ended up going to the top rope. Both women were
<v Speaker 1>laid out flat, and she hit them both with a
<v Speaker 1>corkscrew dive. Again, some people might look at it and say, oh,
<v Speaker 1>it's a spiral tap, and it's not really a spiral tap.
<v Speaker 1>It looks similar. It's a corkscrew dive. I made that
<v Speaker 1>same mistake when she won the belt from EO. She
<v Speaker 1>beat EO, I think, to win the belt the first time.
<v Speaker 1>But she stood tall. The women's world champion stands tall
<v Speaker 1>here to close out the show. Look, it was predictable
<v Speaker 1>that this is where we were going to end up,
<v Speaker 1>but it's the right call. It's the match that makes
<v Speaker 1>the most sense. It didn't make sense to leave either
<v Speaker 1>one of these women out. And you want to make
<v Speaker 1>a stronger card, the triple threat was the way to go.
<v Speaker 1>Stephanie and Becky, sure, that would have been a big match.
<v Speaker 1>But to leave Liv out completely, if Liv is not
<v Speaker 1>in the match, Liv would have just interfered in the match.
<v Speaker 1>So what's the fucking point? You may as well put
<v Speaker 1>her in the match. And that's what we got. And
<v Speaker 1>it sets things up perfectly for what I think is
<v Speaker 1>going to happen. When Roxanne wins the briefcase. Now, of course,
<v Speaker 1>my plan doesn't work if this match goes on before
<v Speaker 1>the women's Money in the Bank match. So the women's
<v Speaker 1>Money in the Bank match has to go on first. Really,
<v Speaker 1>it has to open the show. And then things can
<v Speaker 1>kind of progress in the way that I laid out
<v Speaker 1>on the sound off yesterday. So it's all set up
<v Speaker 1>perfectly now if they want to pull the trigger. And
<v Speaker 1>what a big night it could be for Roxanne Perez
<v Speaker 1>this weekend. As far as my overall thoughts on the show, again,
<v Speaker 1>it was definitely a step down from last week. A
<v Speaker 1>couple of steps down from last week's show. It was
<v Speaker 1>not as fun. It was kind of boring at times.
<v Speaker 1>Just very lackluster compared to what we got last week.
<v Speaker 1>I thought the stuff they did with Oba and Bronson
<v Speaker 1>Reed was fine. Oba's promo was very good. I liked
<v Speaker 1>the face-to-face with Roman and LA Knight at the beginning
<v Speaker 1>of the show. There were a couple of good lines
<v Speaker 1>in there, too. So that was good. And again, the
<v Speaker 1>in-ring action for the most part was fine. Nothing really
<v Speaker 1>stands out to me the way that Dragon Lee and
<v Speaker 1>Big Cass did or that tag team match last week
<v Speaker 1>with Dom and McDonough. Who was it? It was against
<v Speaker 1>Penta and Javon, I think. That was the match last week.
<v Speaker 1>There was really nothing that I enjoyed as much as
<v Speaker 1>I enjoyed those matches. But, you know, they did what
<v Speaker 1>they had to do as far as the key stuff
<v Speaker 1>was concerned. And now we head to Saturday. It's all
<v Speaker 1>about Money in the Bank. I don't think they're going
<v Speaker 1>to be adding Cody and Randy at the last minute.
<v Speaker 1>I still feel like if they were going to add
<v Speaker 1>that match, you have to add that on SmackDown last week,
<v Speaker 1>you know, to add it 24 hours before. That's a
<v Speaker 1>big match, you know, to just kind of toss out
<v Speaker 1>there without any real advance notice. They could, but it
<v Speaker 1>would also go against Triple H's formula where he likes
<v Speaker 1>to typically do like five matches on these shows. I
<v Speaker 1>don't necessarily see that happening. So let's spend some super
<v Speaker 1>chat time going through your questions, and then we'll book
<v Speaker 1>some matches. How about that? Cody versus Randy is probably
<v Speaker 1>crown jewel. Probably, but man, that's another four weeks. Four
<v Speaker 1>weeks of what? Four weeks of what? What are they
<v Speaker 1>going to fill these four weeks with? More sit-down interviews?
<v Speaker 1>That sounds... So exciting. By the way, we really get
<v Speaker 1>to spend my birthday together tomorrow night because I'll be
<v Speaker 1>watching Dynamite, and we're doing the Dynamite stream on Tuesday
<v Speaker 1>night instead of Wednesday night because, FYI, Dynamite is on
<v Speaker 1>Tuesday this week because the playoffs, the MLB playoffs are
<v Speaker 1>taking place on TBS Wednesday. There's a game on TBS
<v Speaker 1>on Wednesday night, so they bumped AEW up by a day.
<v Speaker 1>But it's a big show. It's like a mini pay-per-view.
<v Speaker 1>Did you see this card for Grand Slam France? It
<v Speaker 1>looks fucking great. So I'm hoping for a great show
<v Speaker 1>and then hopefully a great stream. All right, now let's
<v Speaker 1>go back. I had my little confetti bath there, so
<v Speaker 1>go back to your messages. Thank you, guys. Thank you.
<v Speaker 1>Happy Monster Day. Every day is a monster day. Noah
<v Speaker 1>Kirby with a five. Not going to happen, but I
<v Speaker 1>wish for either the men's or women's war games match.
<v Speaker 1>They would do a version of New Blood versus Old
<v Speaker 1>Timers with all of NXT call-ups. Didn't they do something
<v Speaker 1>like that years ago? During the NXT 2.0 days? The
<v Speaker 1>old guard and the new guard? It was like five
<v Speaker 1>years ago. They already did something like that. Nico with
<v Speaker 1>his first... Again, he has a bunch of them here.
<v Speaker 1>His first batch of messages. Nico with the 20. Just
<v Speaker 1>to stop by and say happy birthday to you, Commissioner.
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for all the content. We all love you.
<v Speaker 1>Cheers and enjoy your day, Bob. Thank you. I appreciate that, Nico.
<v Speaker 1>There's Angry Miz Girl. Even she showed up on my birthday.
<v Speaker 1>She's not too happy about it, but she showed up.
<v Speaker 1>It's the thought that counts. Sassolo, how long do you
<v Speaker 1>think Sami holds on to the WWE title? I'll have
<v Speaker 1>him hold it till the end of the year. I
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I really don't know how long they're going
<v Speaker 1>to have him holding that championship for. We're already in October.
<v Speaker 1>Is he even going to make it to Crown Jewel?
<v Speaker 1>As the defending champion. I'll say yes. I'll say he does.
<v Speaker 1>And I think I'm in agreement with you. I think
<v Speaker 1>he can make it through the end of the year
<v Speaker 1>into the beginning of next year. Remember, they did a
<v Speaker 1>WWE title change on like January 9th this year. It
<v Speaker 1>was early in the year on SmackDown. Drew McIntyre beat
<v Speaker 1>Cody in that three stages of hell. Oh, by the way,
<v Speaker 1>that could be the Bayley and Lyra match. Could be
<v Speaker 1>three stages of hell. So I don't think you're too
<v Speaker 1>far off on that prediction there. Nico, thank you for
<v Speaker 1>the two bucks. Death Scythe says, Is it just me,
<v Speaker 1>or does every time Roman Reigns makes a return, it
<v Speaker 1>becomes less and less of a big deal? Well, that's
<v Speaker 1>usually what happens. By the time you make your 16th
<v Speaker 1>return this year, it doesn't hit quite the same way anymore.
<v Speaker 1>Since Will Ospreay won the AEW world title, he's been
<v Speaker 1>getting his wins back from people he's never defeated in AEW.
<v Speaker 1>First Mox, then Ricochet, and now Okada, and eventually Darby Allin.
<v Speaker 1>It's a very astute observation there. I didn't realize that... Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I guess that is true of Ricochet. Okay. The Sheltered Kid. Says,
<v Speaker 1>need help. Got a research paper I'm writing on WWE
<v Speaker 1>for class. I'm picking an argument about who ran WWE better,
<v Speaker 1>VKM or TKO. From your perspective, who ran WWE better? Well,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'll let other people in the chat chime
<v Speaker 1>in on that as well. I mean, you can't really
<v Speaker 1>compare the two. Vince McMahon ran the company for, what,
<v Speaker 1>fucking 40 years. You know, TKO has owned the company
<v Speaker 1>for three. They've done a lot of shit that I
<v Speaker 1>don't like. There's production things they've done that I do like.
<v Speaker 1>You know, there's creative elements and things on that end
<v Speaker 1>that they've done or changed that I think are for
<v Speaker 1>the better. It's very much a mixed bag. I can't
<v Speaker 1>really give you a straight answer. I don't even think
<v Speaker 1>it's really a fair comparison. There isn't enough of a
<v Speaker 1>sample size to really say one way or the other.
<v Speaker 1>It might be a wash. Honestly. But let's see what
<v Speaker 1>you guys in the chat think. Death Scythe says, since
<v Speaker 1>Nick Aldis has a history of showing blatant favoritism when
<v Speaker 1>it comes to Cody Rhodes, I wouldn't be surprised if
<v Speaker 1>he adds Cody to the Money in the Bank match,
<v Speaker 1>just like he gave him a WWE title match after
<v Speaker 1>the Elimination Chamber. I mean, that would be a bit much.
<v Speaker 1>We're adding a seventh man to Money in the Bank.
<v Speaker 1>In your kingdom. That might actually be enough to turn
<v Speaker 1>Cody heel to me. If he pulled that stunt. Dry Chicken,
<v Speaker 1>you know what I like about October? Halloween. Pro wrestling
<v Speaker 1>in both TNA. Total non-stop action and another TNA in
<v Speaker 1>horror movies. That's very true. Horror movies and pro wrestling
<v Speaker 1>mesh together. I got the Judgment Day and The Vision
<v Speaker 1>in a Jason X movie. What are my chances of surviving? Oh,
<v Speaker 1>you're dead. You're dead. Name two members from the Don
<v Speaker 1>Callis family that would survive in the movie The Thing.
<v Speaker 1>From the Don Callis family? I'm going with Mark Davis.
<v Speaker 1>I'm going with Dunkzilla is going to be one of them.
<v Speaker 1>He's definitely one of my picks. The other one would
<v Speaker 1>probably be Brian Cage. I mean, the guy is fucking
<v Speaker 1>jacked to hell. I would just hide behind him. If
<v Speaker 1>I see the thing, I would just kind of push
<v Speaker 1>him forward. I would push Brian Cage into the thing,
<v Speaker 1>and I would go run the other way. I don't care. Nico,
<v Speaker 1>thank you for the five. And the ten. Man, look
<v Speaker 1>at Nico, man. Dry chicken. The good son scenario. Save one,
<v Speaker 1>let the other one go. Says... Mentos, the fresh maker.
<v Speaker 1>Never forget your Mentos. Always have your Mentos. No matter
<v Speaker 1>where you go, no matter what you do. This is
<v Speaker 1>my audition tape right here. Always carry your Mentos with you.
<v Speaker 1>You never know when you may need it. Oh, that
<v Speaker 1>was Raw Hawk. Happy birthday, Solo. Thank you. See, anytime
<v Speaker 1>I see that super chat, that's enough to put a
<v Speaker 1>smile on my face. On my birthday, no less. Thank you,
<v Speaker 1>Raw Hawk. Let's see here. Save one, let the other
<v Speaker 1>one go. New York Mets edition. Steve Cohen or David Stearns? Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, David Stearns is getting dropped. He's done. He's gone.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's an easy one. I think Steve Cohen
<v Speaker 1>means well. He certainly has the Financial resources to bring
<v Speaker 1>in the players and people that can help turn this
<v Speaker 1>organization around, David Stearns, is pretty useless in that regard. So, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I wouldn't even really have to think twice
<v Speaker 1>about that one. He's going splat. Nico, thank you for
<v Speaker 1>the 20, man. Look at this guy here. And then
<v Speaker 1>a couple more that helped get us to the goal earlier.
<v Speaker 1>It says, are you going to be seeing other mommy
<v Speaker 1>this weekend? I'm actually seeing it Thursday. I got my
<v Speaker 1>ticket already. I'm going to be seeing that. That's the
<v Speaker 1>new Jessica Chastain horror movie. I got my ticket. I
<v Speaker 1>am ready to go see it. I'm going to watch
<v Speaker 1>Money in the Bank in Disney Springs on Saturday. I'll
<v Speaker 1>let you know how that goes. Interesting. Yeah, let us
<v Speaker 1>know how that goes. Dry chicken, I have one TV
<v Speaker 1>show you can add to your watch list. American Horror Story.
<v Speaker 1>I think I saw some episodes from some of the
<v Speaker 1>earlier seasons. How many seasons has that show been on for?
<v Speaker 1>It's got to be double digits at this point. B-Man
<v Speaker 1>the Champ with the 10, Canadian. There are rumors floating
<v Speaker 1>around that a certain Scottish psychopath may be returning soon.
<v Speaker 1>Do you think maybe at Money in the Bank? And
<v Speaker 1>he either gets added or takes out someone else and
<v Speaker 1>replaces them. I hope not. Because if he does that,
<v Speaker 1>that probably means he's winning. And he's already won money
<v Speaker 1>in the bank before. I would really like to see
<v Speaker 1>someone who's not won money in the bank before win
<v Speaker 1>money in the bank. So I'm going to say no
<v Speaker 1>on that. Death Scythe. says, seeing LA Knight challenging Roman
<v Speaker 1>Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship reminds me of Steve
<v Speaker 1>Austin challenging Undertaker for the WWF title at In Your House,
<v Speaker 1>A Cold Day in Hell. I think it'll be a
<v Speaker 1>cold day in hell before LA Knight wins the World
<v Speaker 1>Heavyweight Championship. So you may be on to something there. Nico,
<v Speaker 1>look at this, with a one and a two, a
<v Speaker 1>one and a two and a five and a ten. Solo,
<v Speaker 1>who do you got for the men's and women's Money
<v Speaker 1>in the Bank? For me, it is Penta and JC Jane.
<v Speaker 1>I am going Kevin Owens and Roxanne Perez. Deathside, the
<v Speaker 1>one thing they haven't done with Money in the Bank,
<v Speaker 1>the winner holds onto it until next year's Money in
<v Speaker 1>the Bank PLE, and they have until the end of
<v Speaker 1>the night to cash in before it expires. Basically a
<v Speaker 1>race against the clock. You know, in a world where
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to be original and try stuff that hasn't
<v Speaker 1>been done before, I suppose that would be one way
<v Speaker 1>to go. See, I wonder, though. I don't know if
<v Speaker 1>it's so much they have until the end of the show,
<v Speaker 1>or they have until... Like, if you have the men's briefcase,
<v Speaker 1>I don't see how, if they open that show with
<v Speaker 1>a men's Money in the Bank match, once that match
<v Speaker 1>is over and the briefcase has been pulled down, as
<v Speaker 1>far as I'm concerned, time has expired. That's the way
<v Speaker 1>it should be. You have until... the conclusion of the
<v Speaker 1>following year's Money in the Bank ladder match to cash in. Otherwise,
<v Speaker 1>you have two people who could cash in. And, I mean,
<v Speaker 1>I guess that would be kind of unique, I guess.
<v Speaker 1>If you had two people running around with briefcases, I
<v Speaker 1>don't know, maybe there's a storyline there that you can
<v Speaker 1>work with that. I don't know. That would be kind
<v Speaker 1>of unique. Nico with a 20. Man, I got to
<v Speaker 1>give him the yes chant here. This guy is going banana.
<v Speaker 1>Going banana tonight. He's got a bunch more. Did we
<v Speaker 1>reach the goal? We reached the earlier goal. Absolutely. Today's

<v Speaker 1>999 High Solo and Chat. I could smell that triple
<v Speaker 1>threat match from a mile away. I could smell that
<v Speaker 1>match a week away. As soon as they announced the
<v Speaker 1>singles match for tonight last week, I knew exactly where
<v Speaker 1>this was going. Nico says, how many matches do we
<v Speaker 1>got at Money in the Bank? Is it four or five?
<v Speaker 1>It is five. It is five. There is still time
<v Speaker 1>for them to add a number six. I don't think
<v Speaker 1>they will, so we have a total of five. Roman's
<v Speaker 1>title defense, the two ladder matches, the women's title match,
<v Speaker 1>and then Obafemi against Big Bronson Reed. EJ Slemp. With
<v Speaker 1>a 499. White Sox win again. Yeah, he's really enjoying
<v Speaker 1>this White Sox run. He's been very, very excited to
<v Speaker 1>share this joy with us. One more win to the
<v Speaker 1>ALCS and five from the World Series. Wednesday won't be
<v Speaker 1>rate field. It'll be blackout rate field. I'm so excited. Well, look,
<v Speaker 1>I don't have a dog in this fight anymore, so...
<v Speaker 1>I hope it all works out for you. I'm rooting
<v Speaker 1>for you. That was an exciting finish, though, I will say,
<v Speaker 1>last night to the game with the Padres. That was
<v Speaker 1>a hell of a finish there at the end. Man,
<v Speaker 1>playoff baseball, you can't beat that. Nothing better. Aaron with
<v Speaker 1>a 999. Roxanne should cash in mid-match. Pin Becky while
<v Speaker 1>Liv is down and out on the outside. Get the
<v Speaker 1>title back in the judgment day. Liv plays it cool
<v Speaker 1>at first, but then snaps, turns on her because jealousy
<v Speaker 1>and turns Roxanne face. I laid out what I think
<v Speaker 1>is going to happen on the sound off. I don't
<v Speaker 1>think you're too far off. Spray JC says, love the
<v Speaker 1>content solo. May I also recommend heels advocate for live
<v Speaker 1>streams of Ron Smackdown to your crew? Thanks. No, I
<v Speaker 1>want them here. That's why they're my crew. I don't
<v Speaker 1>want them there. I want them here. I want you here, too. BaseBearist,
<v Speaker 1>thank you for the two. Nico with a 20. Man,
<v Speaker 1>this guy is... He's like on a bender tonight. How
<v Speaker 1>did Solo find his way back to the arena? These
<v Speaker 1>are the questions that need to be answered. Yeah, there's
<v Speaker 1>definitely something going on there. I think there may be
<v Speaker 1>a solo swerve coming. Nico says, is LA Knight going
<v Speaker 1>to win the title? I laid it all out for
<v Speaker 1>you on the sound off. You got to go check
<v Speaker 1>out my predictions. Jason Tarr with a 999. The real
<v Speaker 1>return was solo, not Roman. Happy birthday, Salomonster and others
<v Speaker 1>in the chat. Yeah, the real return was solo. It
<v Speaker 1>lasted all of four seconds. Base Beer says China had
<v Speaker 1>a worse kidnapping. I mean, Samoa Joe had a worse kidnapping.
<v Speaker 1>Came back with a penis tattoo on his face. Doesn't
<v Speaker 1>get any worse than that. Ric Flair was abducted once.
<v Speaker 1>He was left for dead in the middle of the
<v Speaker 1>desert back in the dying days of WCW. As abductions
<v Speaker 1>in wrestling go, this Solo Sokoa one was actually very tamed.
<v Speaker 1>Super Cam Fit with a five. Your birthday is my
<v Speaker 1>half birthday. Happy early birthday. I didn't end up going
<v Speaker 1>to Raw tonight, so I'll donate to your whiskey fund.
<v Speaker 1>The whiskey fund has grown quite a bit. I may
<v Speaker 1>have to upgrade my choice of spirits for this birthday.
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we'll drink some Merlot during Dynamite. It is the Paris,
<v Speaker 1>France edition of Dynamite. What's a very Paris, France, French-sounding drink?
<v Speaker 2>Enough! Enough!
<v Speaker 1>Enough! The metal goes zero. He doesn't want to hear it.
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't give a shit. He's had enough. Superpony with
<v Speaker 1>a $ 4.
<v Speaker 2>99.
<v Speaker 1>As a Kevin Owens fan, I laughed out loud when
<v Speaker 1>you picked him to win the briefcase. I don't share
<v Speaker 1>your optimism, but I hope you're right. Well, look, the
<v Speaker 1>way I look at it is this. You have Kevin
<v Speaker 1>Owens and the Money in the Bank match. You have
<v Speaker 1>LA Knight Wrestling for the World Heavyweight Championship. They're not
<v Speaker 1>both winning. But I would like to think that one
<v Speaker 1>of them is going to win. And of the two,
<v Speaker 1>the one who is more likely to win is Kevin Owens.
<v Speaker 1>So you got to have some shred of optimism. Some shred.
<v Speaker 1>A strand of optimism. Base Bear says, we had a
<v Speaker 1>great stream on Friday. Happy birthday. Yeah, we had a
<v Speaker 1>fun stream on Friday night, especially during the Be The
<v Speaker 1>Booker stuff. We had a good time on Friday. TayTayTheSavior
<v Speaker 1>with a $ 9. 99. Buy or Sell, CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre,
<v Speaker 1>Bad Blood 2024. Shawn Michaels vs. Undertaker at Bad Blood 97.
<v Speaker 1>By the way, happy birthday, Solo, one of my favorite
<v Speaker 1>people in the community. community. One of.
<v Speaker 2>Hmm.
<v Speaker 1>Interesting. I wonder where I rank. This is an easy one.
<v Speaker 1>As great as the Punk and McIntyre match was, Shawn
<v Speaker 1>Michaels and The Undertaker is the easy winner. I'm buying
<v Speaker 1>on that. I'm selling on the Punk match. I didn't
<v Speaker 1>even really have to think too hard on that one.
<v Speaker 1>It's a classic for a reason. HBKC83, was it a
<v Speaker 1>missed opportunity to do more with Dolph Ziggler after the
<v Speaker 1>2014 Survivor Series? Absolutely it was. What was it, a
<v Speaker 1>missed opportunity? The answer is yes. That was probably his
<v Speaker 1>greatest chance, honestly, to be pushed away. to whatever that
<v Speaker 1>next level was and they didn't pursue it wasn't about
<v Speaker 1>Dolph it was about the authority it was about everything
<v Speaker 1>else going on Dolph was just a small part of
<v Speaker 1>it super cam fit with with a 10 I was
<v Speaker 1>there at bad blood my grandma no sold canes pyro
<v Speaker 1>No one in the arena was expecting it. I hit
<v Speaker 1>the floor as it went off, but I look up
<v Speaker 1>and see my grandma enduring the heat and wind like
<v Speaker 1>a badass. Yeah, your grandma does sound like a badass.
<v Speaker 1>She sounds like a Canaanite. Imagine being there for that. See,
<v Speaker 1>that's one of those moments where it's like, I was there, right?
<v Speaker 1>Base Bear says, we're only in the fifth inning. With
<v Speaker 1>the little blood drop emoji here. The Long Island Wiseguy.
<v Speaker 1>With a five. Buy, sell, rent on these Brooklyn neighborhoods.
<v Speaker 1>Bay Ridge, Bensonhurst, or Brighton Beach. Brighton Beach.
<v Speaker 2>Yes.
<v Speaker 1>Brighton Beach. On the B train. The Brighton Beach.
<v Speaker 2>Um.
<v Speaker 1>Well, I don't really hang out in any of those neighborhoods.
<v Speaker 1>The closest one would be Bay Ridge, and I try
<v Speaker 1>to avoid that because parking there is an absolute fucking nightmare.
<v Speaker 1>Especially if you try to go to a restaurant in
<v Speaker 1>Bay Ridge on like a Friday night or a Saturday night.
<v Speaker 1>Good fucking luck. I guess if I had to rank them, though,
<v Speaker 1>I probably would buy on Bay Ridge. I have no
<v Speaker 1>reason to be in Bensonhurst. Or Brighton Beach, so... Buy
<v Speaker 1>on Bay Ridge, I'll... rent on Bentonhurst and I'll sell
<v Speaker 1>Brighton Beach it's the way I would do it we
<v Speaker 1>got Eric Payne from earlier with the $ 100 red bomb
<v Speaker 1>the sole red bomb thank you again my friend I'm
<v Speaker 1>glad you enjoyed that HOG show in Chicago Misfit Wrestling Podcast,
<v Speaker 1>not saying Roman is the leader of 9-4-6, but it's
<v Speaker 1>very strange when he's there, nothing happens. But then stuff
<v Speaker 1>happens when he's not there. Because they don't want none
<v Speaker 1>of the tribal chief. See, you're saying, you're not saying
<v Speaker 1>Roman is the leader of 9-4-6, but you're kind of
<v Speaker 1>saying that you think Roman may be the leader of 9-4-6.
<v Speaker 1>And I'm saying that he is not. I'm saying that
<v Speaker 1>it is just a coincidence. An interesting coincidence. Look, I
<v Speaker 1>said the same thing about Jacob Fatu for weeks and weeks,
<v Speaker 1>until the week finally came that he got run over
<v Speaker 1>by a car. So I think it's only a matter
<v Speaker 1>of time before Roman Reigns maybe doesn't get run over
<v Speaker 1>by a car, but something will happen. Possibly this weekend.
<v Speaker 1>Bass Beerus. Buy or sell? Big Show or Andre the Giant?
<v Speaker 1>Big show. He says, you share a birthday with Rusev Day.
<v Speaker 1>That's right. I do. Did you ever own a Furby? No,
<v Speaker 1>but Trick Williams does. Wears it around his fucking waist
<v Speaker 1>every week. Jason Tarr with that $ 50 super chat earlier.
<v Speaker 1>Got it. He got us. He got us there. We
<v Speaker 1>are 6 out of 10, by the way, on that
<v Speaker 1>double bonus goal. We're inching our way closer to a
<v Speaker 1>potential third round. Kiyoi102 is coming in with a message. Kiyoi.
<v Speaker 1>I'll get to your message in a little bit. We
<v Speaker 1>got to go to Wonder96. I always felt like Victoria
<v Speaker 1>was ahead of her time, even better than both Trish
<v Speaker 1>and Lita. Great character work, ring work, and a devastating finisher.
<v Speaker 1>She deserved more than two championships in her seven-year career
<v Speaker 1>in WWE. I don't know why it's taken so long
<v Speaker 1>to put her in the Hall of Fame, honestly. Hopefully
<v Speaker 1>that'll happen in the next few years. I don't disagree
<v Speaker 1>with anything you said there. Victoria was very good. But
<v Speaker 1>just remember how her career started in WWE. She was
<v Speaker 1>brought in as one of the Godfather's hoes. And I'd
<v Speaker 1>say she went on to have a pretty successful career.
<v Speaker 1>Not only in WWE. It is a spooky Brie mode.
<v Speaker 1>As if the normal Brie mode is not spooky enough.
<v Speaker 1>We have spookier Brie mode now here for October. I
<v Speaker 1>was going to say though, not only does she have
<v Speaker 1>success in WWE, she did pretty well for herself as Tara.
<v Speaker 1>in TNA as well. Raphael with a five says, happy birthday,
<v Speaker 1>solid monster. Thank you, Raphael. I appreciate that. St. James entertainment.
<v Speaker 1>Bailey said it's over when she says it's over. Maybe
<v Speaker 1>the rumor of her leaving is true and it's an,
<v Speaker 1>I quit match. Uh, possibly, uh, If this ends up
<v Speaker 1>having some sort of loser-leaves-town stipulation, then that's a dead
<v Speaker 1>giveaway that she maybe is really leaving. I just thought
<v Speaker 1>that her coming back to TV meant she was staying,
<v Speaker 1>because otherwise, why bring her back at all? You had
<v Speaker 1>the perfect send-off at Saturday night's main event in July.
<v Speaker 1>Base Beerus, where is your party hat? Yeah, I forgot
<v Speaker 1>my party hat. I may have to bust it out
<v Speaker 1>for tomorrow. Andre Jefferson with a 10. They should have
<v Speaker 1>Ethan and Big Cass team up along with Ricky Saints. See,
<v Speaker 1>that's an interesting crew. That would be an interesting... I
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't be against that. Yeah, she had a lot more
<v Speaker 1>titles in TNA, right? Was it five? Yeah, I think
<v Speaker 1>she had like four or five titles in TNA. I
<v Speaker 1>didn't realize she only had two in WWE. Did she
<v Speaker 1>not win the hardcore title? When she, I mean, maybe, uh, no,
<v Speaker 1>I guess not.
<v Speaker 2>Oh, Jerry Lawler loves Gunthar the Magnificent. All hail Gunthar.
<v Speaker 1>All hail the mighty Gunthar. Always love a Gunthar appearance
<v Speaker 1>here on the streams. Always. I was going to say,
<v Speaker 1>I think I was misremembering before. I do remember when
<v Speaker 1>the Godfather's Ho won the hardcore title. but it wasn't Victoria.
<v Speaker 1>And then she lost it like three seconds later. But
<v Speaker 1>in the record books under hardcore title reigns, it does
<v Speaker 1>say Godfather's Ho was a champion in WWE. And Metal Ghost, well, wait,
<v Speaker 1>I'll get to Metal Ghost here in a little bit.
<v Speaker 1>Metal Ghost was a nice little surprise there. Up to
<v Speaker 1>8 out of 10 on that goal, by the way.
<v Speaker 1>Base Beerus.
<v Speaker 2>Oh, wait.
<v Speaker 1>First, we got Rockhawk. Son of a bitch. See, I
<v Speaker 1>said it too fast. If I would have just, like,
<v Speaker 1>if I would have stared at it, if I would
<v Speaker 1>have read that first, I would have caught it. But
<v Speaker 1>you got me there. You got me there. But he
<v Speaker 1>got the $ 30. Look, I mean, I have to say
<v Speaker 1>his name because he dropped the $ 30 Mentos Super Chat.
<v Speaker 1>So there you go. terrible. Base beer is Triple H
<v Speaker 1>owns Punk's soul. Rock owns Cody's soul. The Long Island Wiseguy,
<v Speaker 1>the New York Mets, will one day win the World Series.
<v Speaker 1>You gotta believe. I believe they will too. I just
<v Speaker 1>don't know if I'll still be on this earth breathing
<v Speaker 1>when that actually happens. I hope I am. Death Scythe,
<v Speaker 1>happy birthday Solo. And here's my words of wisdom for you.
<v Speaker 1>Just because we can't outrun Father Time doesn't mean we
<v Speaker 1>can't slow him down. And how do you.
<v Speaker 1>How do you figure we do that exactly? What is
<v Speaker 1>the secret? What is the secret to slowing down father time?
<v Speaker 1>Wonder96 with a 999. I had just found out that
<v Speaker 1>WWE really tried to actually model Chris Benoit after Wolverine
<v Speaker 1>from Marvel. From his nickname to his wrestling tights. By
<v Speaker 1>the way, happy birthday Solo. Oh, that's why he was
<v Speaker 1>the rabid Wolverine. I thought that was pretty obvious. The
<v Speaker 1>tights were a giveaway. MegaX0 forever for the 10. Salamonster,
<v Speaker 1>thank you for your podcasts. Saved me every time at work.
<v Speaker 1>Do you think the men's Money in the Bank winners
<v Speaker 1>should cash in on the same night? I do not.
<v Speaker 1>I do not. I think this year it should be
<v Speaker 1>the women's Money in the Bank winner cashing in on
<v Speaker 1>the same night. Base beer as Rey Mysterio got thrown
<v Speaker 1>off the roof at a Money in the Bank. He did.
<v Speaker 1>That was a classic moment there from Titan Tower. I
<v Speaker 1>give them points for being creative. I mean, they had
<v Speaker 1>to be that year. Metal goes zero with the 20.
<v Speaker 1>I love you solo. Question, should Oba win the Rumble
<v Speaker 1>or the Elimination Chamber? The Rumble. I think the Rumble
<v Speaker 1>makes the most sense. EJ Slemp says, I was going
<v Speaker 1>to say I love JC Jane more than Bliss fan
<v Speaker 1>loves Alexa, but no, that's unhealthy. Been a fan for years, though,
<v Speaker 1>so happy for her. Happy birthday. Thank you, EJ. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>that would be an unhealthy obsession. That's more obsessive than
<v Speaker 1>Nikki was in Obsessions. Like, the power of BlissFan and
<v Speaker 1>his adoration for Alexa Bliss is far stronger than a
<v Speaker 1>one-wish willow. So I don't even think if you tried,
<v Speaker 1>you would be able to match that. Nor would I
<v Speaker 1>recommend that. RetroKOH, thank you for the birthday love. DeathSight says,
<v Speaker 1>which horror movie jumpscare legitimately almost emptied your bladder and bowels?
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't know about that. For me,
<v Speaker 1>it was the nurse station scene from The Exorcist 3.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about emptying my bladder and bowels. It's
<v Speaker 1>quite the visual. I'll tell you what one of the
<v Speaker 1>all-time best jump scares was, and it did get me,
<v Speaker 1>was the end of the very first Friday the 13th
<v Speaker 1>when Jason pops out of the lake. Or I could
<v Speaker 1>go with the video game one. I can go with
<v Speaker 1>that fucking dog bursting through the window in the hallway
<v Speaker 1>in Resident Evil 2. That got me pretty good too.
<v Speaker 1>Spray JC. Not contributing again until you watch Raising Arizona
<v Speaker 1>directed by the Coen brothers. Were you the one who
<v Speaker 1>brought that up to me last time? That's the second
<v Speaker 1>time I've heard that name mentioned. Raising Arizona. What is
<v Speaker 1>it about? Is it a horror movie? It sounds like
<v Speaker 1>a single dad raising his daughter by himself. Her name
<v Speaker 1>is Arizona. Sounds boring to me. Kiyoi102 just wanted to
<v Speaker 1>give you props for what you said about Meltzer, given
<v Speaker 1>his platform and his history of stirring the pot, either
<v Speaker 1>knowingly or unknowingly. Yeah, I mean, that whole, like, The
<v Speaker 1>whole thing with The Rock and his tribute video to
<v Speaker 1>Pac and the Meltzer saying, oh, you know, people in WWE,
<v Speaker 1>they were surprised that he mentioned AEW. And then he's
<v Speaker 1>just kind of going on and on. I'm like, dude,
<v Speaker 1>why even say anything about that? Just leave it alone.
<v Speaker 1>Because you know exactly what's going to happen. You know
<v Speaker 1>people are going to aggregate that. And you know it's
<v Speaker 1>going to turn into a tribalistic thing. And it's completely unnecessary.
<v Speaker 1>There's no real news being reported. All it does is
<v Speaker 1>stir up the hornet's nest. I don't know why you
<v Speaker 1>would want to do that. But then he'll be the
<v Speaker 1>first one to turn around and complain about the tribalism.
<v Speaker 1>Can't have it both ways. Alex with a 25. Brother Solo,
<v Speaker 1>what do you think pro wrestling would look like today
<v Speaker 1>if Vince McMahon never dismantled the territories? I actually don't
<v Speaker 1>think wrestling would look all that different. I think those
<v Speaker 1>territories were on their way out regardless. I think that
<v Speaker 1>there's a period of time there in the late 80s
<v Speaker 1>into the 90s where wrestling would have looked different. But ultimately,
<v Speaker 1>I think by the time you hit that period in
<v Speaker 1>the late 90s, I don't know that there would have
<v Speaker 1>been too much that would have been that different. I
<v Speaker 1>don't know. Long term, it was headed the way that
<v Speaker 1>it was headed regardless. He just kind of sped up
<v Speaker 1>the process. Would we still have a territorial system today?
<v Speaker 2>No.
<v Speaker 1>No, we would not. And there's MetalGhost0 with that $ 50
<v Speaker 1>Gunther bomb. Happy birthday, Solo. Should Gunther take time off
<v Speaker 1>and come back at a PLE and attack Oba? Well,
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to say no because that's not going to
<v Speaker 1>end well for Gunther. Another question. Who would you like
<v Speaker 1>to see challenged for the WWE title? I think we
<v Speaker 1>got we got plenty of people right now challenging for
<v Speaker 1>the WWE title. Um, we have Kevin Owens and we
<v Speaker 1>have CM Punk and we're going to have Cody and
<v Speaker 1>or Randy. We've had Johnny Gargano and I would imagine
<v Speaker 1>Drew McIntyre comes back. He should come back on Mondays
<v Speaker 1>and not Fridays, but if he comes back on Fridays,
<v Speaker 1>you could put him on the list. Um, as far like,
<v Speaker 1>but who, who would I like to see challenge for
<v Speaker 1>the WWE title? Um, Maybe who isn't already challenging for
<v Speaker 1>the championship. Penta. He's not going to win the World
<v Speaker 1>Heavyweight title. Get him in the mix for the WWE title.
<v Speaker 1>You got to keep that guy going, man. He's too good.
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to see him fall backwards.
<v Speaker 2>Griga.
<v Speaker 1>Griga. Thank you for the birthday love. Breadheart from R-Truth
<v Speaker 1>to you. Happy birthday, Dixie Carter. You son of a bitch. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>I always point this out that I share a birthday
<v Speaker 1>with Bruno Sammartino and Dixie Carter. If you can believe that.
<v Speaker 1>What a trio. October 6th birthdays. Bruno, Dixie, and Salamonster.
<v Speaker 1>Now there's a fucking faction for you. What a crew.
<v Speaker 1>We got Rawcock4573. Glad you got my name right.
<v Speaker 2>LOL.
<v Speaker 1>And he says, be the booker round three. Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes.
<v Speaker 2>We did.
<v Speaker 1>We hit the goal again. Three rounds.
<v Speaker 2>I am the learning tree. Thanks, guys.
<v Speaker 1>There's Pumpkinhead Jericho. Spooky learning tree. Is that Barry? Thank you, Barry.
<v Speaker 1>Spray JC with a tanned daughter and her father. Says,
<v Speaker 1>come on, man. Nick Cage at his best. John Goodman,
<v Speaker 1>Holly Hunter, Coen Brothers. Expand your horizons, brother. Raising Arizona. Well,
<v Speaker 1>there's a movie I want you to watch that I
<v Speaker 1>actually enjoyed many years ago called Two Days in the Valley.
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't like a big blockbuster or anything like that.
<v Speaker 1>I enjoyed that movie. I'll watch that if you watch
<v Speaker 1>that movie. Do you realize I have like 15,000 Marvel
<v Speaker 1>movies I'm still trying to work my way through before
<v Speaker 1>Doomsday in December and you want me to watch fucking
<v Speaker 1>Raising Arizona? I don't have time to detour. I mean,
<v Speaker 1>I go to the movies to see some movies when
<v Speaker 1>they come out, so I'll be seeing some of those movies,
<v Speaker 1>but I got to stay on target here You know,
<v Speaker 1>I just saw Thor The Dark World, and I thought, man,
<v Speaker 1>this is pretty bad. But I heard that Ragnarok is better,
<v Speaker 1>so that'll be the next Thor movie I see. But
<v Speaker 1>I gotta watch Civil War, and then Age of Ultron,
<v Speaker 1>and then I can get into Endgame and Infinity War.
<v Speaker 1>Or Infinity War and then Endgame. And then if I
<v Speaker 1>have time, I'll get into Black Panther and Shang-Chi and
<v Speaker 1>some other ones. I gotta stay focused here. Death Scythe.
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell what supermodels believe the answer is to slowing
<v Speaker 1>down father time. Silicone, Botox, and Collagen.
<v Speaker 2>Hmm.
<v Speaker 1>So should I have Silicone, Botox, and Collagen?
<v Speaker 2>Hmm.
<v Speaker 1>And then they have like the big fish lips. And
<v Speaker 1>where would the silicone go exactly? You know, if you're
<v Speaker 1>a guy, the older you get, especially once you get
<v Speaker 1>into like your 50s and your 60s, you don't got
<v Speaker 1>to worry about silicone. Father Time will take care of
<v Speaker 1>that for you. You won't need to worry about that.
<v Speaker 1>Barry MK with a 12. What if during the women's
<v Speaker 1>title match, Jessica Carr turns heel and doesn't count for
<v Speaker 1>Becky to win? She could even say that she was
<v Speaker 1>against her all this time. Yeah, I'm not really a
<v Speaker 1>fan of that. I mean, Becky came back. She's kind
<v Speaker 1>of been a baby face. To me, it really wouldn't
<v Speaker 1>make a whole lot of sense. All of a sudden,
<v Speaker 1>out of nowhere, after all this time? Yeah, I'm not
<v Speaker 1>a fan of that. Did you watch Winter Soldier? Did I?
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I watched the... God, I don't even
<v Speaker 1>know what I've watched. I watched the first Captain America movie. Oh,
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I think I did. I don't know.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I honestly don't even know. I've seen
<v Speaker 1>about seven or eight Marvel movies in the last, like,
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, month and a half or so, whatever
<v Speaker 1>it's been. And I have to go back and... Well,
<v Speaker 1>you know what? I have my Letterboxd account. See, this
<v Speaker 1>is what's good about having a Letterboxd account. Is I'm
<v Speaker 1>trying to keep track of everything that I'm watching. And
<v Speaker 1>even if I don't leave a review, I give them
<v Speaker 1>a star rating. I'm like fucking Meltzer here on Letterboxd.
<v Speaker 1>So I will tell you right now. I.
<v Speaker 1>Will tell you right now. No, I did not. I
<v Speaker 1>saw Captain America, the first Avenger. And then I saw
<v Speaker 1>him in the Avengers. I did not see Winter Soldier.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if that's on the list of movies
<v Speaker 1>that you guys recommended that I see. Honestly. I know
<v Speaker 1>I have to see Civil War. Apparently that's very important,
<v Speaker 1>so I know that. We have Navy4181. Merry birthday, Solo.
<v Speaker 1>Hope it's as good as Edge's raw birthday 26 years
<v Speaker 1>ago with Kazooz and the right to censor beating the Hardys. Edge...
<v Speaker 1>And the Hardys lose. What a birthday present. I have
<v Speaker 1>no memory of that. You got a better memory than
<v Speaker 1>I do when it comes to that. I don't know.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, is Winter Soldier required viewing? I mean, I
<v Speaker 1>can't watch everything here. I got to keep it moving.
<v Speaker 1>So is it required viewing or not? Because if it's not,
<v Speaker 1>then I'm going to skip over it. Like I saw X-Men, X2,
<v Speaker 1>I'm not watching X3. We got to keep things moving
<v Speaker 1>along here. Jeremy Thunderstrikes, happy birthday Solo. With that Halloween game,
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to ask which horror movie, new or old,
<v Speaker 1>would make a great video game? They never made a
<v Speaker 1>Scream game, did they? With Ghostface. I think that could
<v Speaker 1>be a fun one. I think any horror movie could
<v Speaker 1>be adapted into a fun video game. But yeah, if
<v Speaker 1>they haven't made a Scream game, I might go with
<v Speaker 1>that one. Because we've seen a Halloween game, we've seen
<v Speaker 1>a Friday the 13th game. Yeah, I'll go with that one.
<v Speaker 1>And Spray JC with a 10. I feel really strongly
<v Speaker 1>about this. Raising Arizona is... He's still going on. He's
<v Speaker 1>like the guy with the plastic belt years ago when
<v Speaker 1>he called into the show and I took his phone call.
<v Speaker 1>He was complaining about the plastic belt that Thunder Rosa wore,
<v Speaker 1>the NWA belt that she wore on Dynamite. He was insistent.
<v Speaker 1>He was so offended that this belt, it looked like plastic.
<v Speaker 1>It's a plastic belt, Solid Monster. He's really, he feels
<v Speaker 1>very strongly about raising Arizona. It's a way better use
<v Speaker 1>of your time than Marvel's slop. You won't regret it.
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to take a look at this right now.
<v Speaker 1>I want to see what this Raising Arizona movie is
<v Speaker 1>rated on IMDb. Came out in 1987. Hogan slammed Andre
<v Speaker 1>the year that this movie... Oh, I know this movie.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I ever watched it, but When
<v Speaker 1>a childless couple, an ex-con and an ex-cop, decide to
<v Speaker 1>help themselves to one of another family's quintuplets, their lives
<v Speaker 1>become more complicated than they anticipated. It's got a 7.3
<v Speaker 1>rating out of 10. And then on Rotten Tomatoes, Raising
<v Speaker 1>Arizona has a 91%... Fresh rating from critics, 85% from fans.
<v Speaker 1>So those are good scores. I'll give you that. Those
<v Speaker 1>are good scores. Is it better than Marvel slop? I
<v Speaker 1>don't know. There have been some Marvel movies that are
<v Speaker 1>pretty highly rated. I don't think it's all slop. Some
<v Speaker 1>of it's slop. All right, I think we're caught up.
<v Speaker 1>on your messages. Now, how many rounds are we do here?
<v Speaker 1>Is it three? I think it's three rounds, right? We're
<v Speaker 1>at 460 likes by the way. So the goal is
<v Speaker 1>five 15. So, uh, get the likes up and we
<v Speaker 1>might actually be able to do four rounds of this.
<v Speaker 1>We're getting close, but we're not there yet. But on
<v Speaker 1>that note, it's time for some birthday. Be the booker.
<v Speaker 1>Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time to be the booker.
<v Speaker 1>Did I ever see the Blob remake from 1988? Yes.
<v Speaker 1>Of course I saw the Blob. How could you not
<v Speaker 1>see the Blob? I saw the Blob 2 as well.
<v Speaker 1>I think the Blob 2 is the one where they
<v Speaker 1>have that one... Maybe not. Maybe it wasn't the Blob 2.
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it was Creepshow 2 that I'm thinking of. No,
<v Speaker 1>it was Creepshow 2. One of the stories in the
<v Speaker 1>second Creepshow movie it was kind of like a blob.
<v Speaker 1>It looked like an oil slick in like a lake.
<v Speaker 1>And there's this one scene where this guy gets, there's
<v Speaker 1>like a, uh, I don't know, like a wooden deck. And, uh,
<v Speaker 1>he gets sucked like through the deck. I think that,
<v Speaker 1>I think that was creep show, not the blob. Maybe
<v Speaker 1>I could put the blob and be the booker, but
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what, like, what would the image be?
<v Speaker 1>It would just, it would just, I don't know. It
<v Speaker 1>would just be, uh, It would just be goo. Can
<v Speaker 1>you really beat the blob, though? I don't think you
<v Speaker 1>can beat the blob. If I landed on the blob,
<v Speaker 1>the blob would win. It's kind of predictable. Anyway, we
<v Speaker 1>have Blob... Bron Breaker. Not Blob Breaker. Bron Breaker and
<v Speaker 1>Bronson Reed. There he is, the tribal thief. The Raft. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>that's what it was. The Raft. We got Bronson Reed
<v Speaker 1>and Bron Breaker here. We have the Visions. Kicking us
<v Speaker 1>off here. Tag Team Be The Booker. They're going to
<v Speaker 1>be taking on Choose Two Single Stars to form a
<v Speaker 1>makeshift team. Oh, joy. You know, there's a couple of
<v Speaker 1>horror icons that I have inserted for this month into
<v Speaker 1>Men's Be The Booker, and so wouldn't it be something
<v Speaker 1>if we landed on the two of them? They would
<v Speaker 1>be unstoppable. I think you know who I'm talking about.
<v Speaker 1>All right, we got to form our own tag team here.
<v Speaker 1>You like that blob breaker. We have, oh, okay. Well,
<v Speaker 1>this is not what I was expecting. So I don't
<v Speaker 1>know how to approach this now. Because we now have
<v Speaker 1>championships that are in Be the Booker. Where if we
<v Speaker 1>land on them, it becomes a championship match based on
<v Speaker 1>whatever title it is that we land on. We're doing
<v Speaker 1>a tag team match, but we landed on the European titles.
<v Speaker 1>We're going to have to continue spinning because it doesn't
<v Speaker 1>really apply here. But now you know what's in there.
<v Speaker 1>We could have a European title match in the future.
<v Speaker 1>uh we have uh the ruler there he is the
<v Speaker 1>bringer of war oba femi oba femi in the vision
<v Speaker 1>really are you fucking kidding me i just realized are
<v Speaker 1>we really booking oba femi against the vision in be
<v Speaker 1>the booker can we try to be a Obafemi and
<v Speaker 1>the world's most dangerous man, Ken Shamrock. Wow, that's an
<v Speaker 1>unstoppable team right there. I would not want to be
<v Speaker 1>in the ring opposite those two men. Obafemi and Ken Shamrock.
<v Speaker 1>Those are your new tag team champions right there. That's
<v Speaker 1>what that is. Obafemi against Ken Shamrock. What would that
<v Speaker 1>match look like? You know, that's an interesting one. Well,
<v Speaker 1>we're only one match in and I'm already exhausted. All right,
<v Speaker 1>women's be the booker. We have Gail Kim, former WWE
<v Speaker 1>Women's Champion, TNA Knockouts Champion. Quite the resume to her name.
<v Speaker 1>The intensity between Breaker and Shamrock. Oh, yeah. That's true.
<v Speaker 1>Shamrock and Breaker in the ring together. When Shamrock gets
<v Speaker 1>in the zone, you don't want to be around him.
<v Speaker 1>Remember he used to punch himself in the face? Gail
<v Speaker 1>Kim against Bianca Belair. I miss Bianca. I miss Bianca Belair.
<v Speaker 1>Now I'm sad. Now I'm sad on my birthday. Great match, though. Alright,
<v Speaker 1>main event number one. Main event number one. We need
<v Speaker 1>a good one. Just for me. Be the Booker has
<v Speaker 1>been repossessed and the game is over. Oh my goodness.
<v Speaker 1>We lost one of our main events. We lost our
<v Speaker 1>main event because of the fucking repo, man. He has
<v Speaker 1>repossessed our main event. OMG.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe this. And on my birthday, no less.
<v Speaker 1>This is terrible. This is terrible. Now, the good news
<v Speaker 1>is we have two more rounds. See, so The repo
<v Speaker 1>man can go fuck off. This round is over. There's
<v Speaker 1>nothing we can do about that. However, we have other
<v Speaker 1>rounds to go. So we are still in a good position, though.
<v Speaker 1>So don't worry about that, all right? Forget that. It
<v Speaker 1>didn't happen. Wipe the slate clean. Start over. There we go.
<v Speaker 1>And now we have stipulations. Even better. to make this
<v Speaker 1>even more fun. All right, here we go. Our first match, boy,
<v Speaker 1>you know, Be The Booker has really become fond of
<v Speaker 1>this stipulation. A Molotov cocktail match. We have a Molotov,
<v Speaker 1>and since we didn't get to do the main event,
<v Speaker 1>we're going to start with the guys here. We have
<v Speaker 1>a Molotov cocktail match. Which basically just means Molotov cocktails
<v Speaker 1>are legal, so you can light them up and toss
<v Speaker 1>them at your opponent. And I hope that your opponent
<v Speaker 1>doesn't duck and it lands in the front row, because
<v Speaker 1>then little Jimmy is going to end up in the
<v Speaker 1>burn unit, and nobody wants to see that. Ooh. Okay,
<v Speaker 1>well this kind of tracks, actually, given the stipulations. So
<v Speaker 1>this is going to be a Molotov cocktail match for
<v Speaker 1>the AEW World Championship This is a title match. This
<v Speaker 1>is a Tony Khan special here. Molotov cocktail for the
<v Speaker 1>AEW world title. With The Rock, as if The Rock
<v Speaker 1>would agree to be in this, but okay, we'll go
<v Speaker 1>with it. We'll go with it. The Rock? I mean,
<v Speaker 1>there's the belt. Oh my god, The Rock and MJF.
<v Speaker 1>Holy shit, are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?
<v Speaker 1>MJF and The Rock. What would those promos look like?
<v Speaker 1>Prime Rock and MJF. The match itself would be fucking great,
<v Speaker 1>but imagine the promos. Oh my god. See, I think
<v Speaker 1>that makes up for the repo man taking our main
<v Speaker 1>event away from us. Just the promos alone would be
<v Speaker 1>great television. We have an intergender match. Okay. Here we go.
<v Speaker 1>We got to pick someone from the opposite sex here.
<v Speaker 1>What a birthday. I know. What a birthday. We got
<v Speaker 1>the rockin' MJF. What a birthday present. Holy shit. Tiffany Stratton,
<v Speaker 1>who could very well win her second Money in the
<v Speaker 1>Bank briefcase this weekend, although I hope not. Who is
<v Speaker 1>Tiffany Stratton going to be stepping in the ring with?
<v Speaker 1>She's going to step in the ring with one of
<v Speaker 1>her male counterparts. Wow. Tiffany Stratton against Sting.
<v Speaker 2>Sting.
<v Speaker 1>It's Sting! Sting would never. Sting would never put his
<v Speaker 1>hands on a woman. Flat Top, Surfer Sting, and Tiffany Stratton. Actually,
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that would be a terrible match. I
<v Speaker 1>don't think that would be a terrible match. That's why
<v Speaker 1>I gave it the bell. I think it would be
<v Speaker 1>quite good. Who wins, Rock or MJF? Well, keep in
<v Speaker 1>mind the stipulation. It's a Molotov cocktail match. So, I
<v Speaker 1>think my money would be on MJF in that match.
<v Speaker 1>He'll do whatever it takes to win. And then we
<v Speaker 1>have an Ironman match. A 60-minute Ironman match. Now, not
<v Speaker 1>everybody is interested really equipped to be in a 60-minute
<v Speaker 1>marathon match like this. It really has to be two
<v Speaker 1>people who can go and who can keep people's interest
<v Speaker 1>for the full hour. So this is going to be
<v Speaker 1>a very interesting one here. Not really a fan of this.
<v Speaker 1>Really depends on who the people are. Participant number one
<v Speaker 1>is Jon Moxley, the ace of of AEW the former
<v Speaker 1>AEW and WWE world champion Jon Moxley though in an
<v Speaker 1>Ironman match hmm I don't know about that let's see
<v Speaker 1>Jon Moxley and AJ Styles in an Ironman match well
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what I will give that the bell
<v Speaker 1>Funny enough, wasn't that the match where AJ won the
<v Speaker 1>WWE Championship the first time? Didn't he beat Ambrose? He
<v Speaker 1>beat Ambrose? So they have feuded before. AJ Styles would
<v Speaker 1>help lift that. But you know there's going to be
<v Speaker 1>a lot of brawling. There's going to be a lot
<v Speaker 1>of blood. Mox is going to have to lean heavily
<v Speaker 1>into that. It's got 60 minutes to kill. You know,
<v Speaker 1>we're going to see the Death Riders running in. It's
<v Speaker 1>going to be all kinds of bullshit. It's not the best,
<v Speaker 1>but it's not terrible. It wasn't enough for me to
<v Speaker 1>ruin the sweep. So we got our first sweep of
<v Speaker 1>the night. So that was round number two. And I
<v Speaker 1>think this might be the final round. I think this
<v Speaker 1>may be. I do believe. I'm actually going to stop
<v Speaker 1>that goal and set one more very, very quick goal here.
<v Speaker 1>In the event that we hit it. Just to give
<v Speaker 1>you guys a chance. Alright, here we go. So, round
<v Speaker 1>number three. We are going to kick things off here
<v Speaker 1>with a submission match.
<v Speaker 2>Um.
<v Speaker 1>I feel like we should do a tag match here.
<v Speaker 1>Tag team submission match? Yeah, we could do that. Tag
<v Speaker 1>team submission match. Very, very interesting. We have Kevin Owens
<v Speaker 1>and Sami Zayn, the former tag team champions, best friends,
<v Speaker 1>better enemies. Or good friends, better enemies. Do they have
<v Speaker 1>any submission holds? We have the Blue Thunder Bomb. We
<v Speaker 1>have the Huluva Kick. We have the Package Pile Driver.
<v Speaker 1>We have the Pop-Up Power Bomb. We have the Stunner.
<v Speaker 1>I don't see any submission maneuvers. I don't see any
<v Speaker 1>submission holds in here. Maybe they're not the best team
<v Speaker 1>to be doing this. Against Finn Balor and J.D. McDonough
<v Speaker 1>in a submission match. The Judgment Day. It is the
<v Speaker 1>Judgment Day. Finn looks like he has a bigger head
<v Speaker 1>than JD in this picture. Keep talking about Finn's or
<v Speaker 1>McDonough's Funko Pop head. Alright, our second match here of
<v Speaker 1>the final round is going to be a bull rope match. Well,
<v Speaker 1>this is bullshit. I don't like this stipulation. I don't
<v Speaker 1>like it, but it is in there. We got some cowbell.
<v Speaker 1>We got cowbell in this next match. A women's bull
<v Speaker 1>rope match. I don't know that there's ever been a
<v Speaker 1>women's bull rope match. If I'm wrong, I'm sure somebody
<v Speaker 1>will tell me. AJ Lee. Okay. I don't know about this.
<v Speaker 1>AJ Lee is going to be in a bull rope match.
<v Speaker 1>She's so tiny. I mean, can she even hold up
<v Speaker 1>a bull rope? I don't know. She's so small. AJ
<v Speaker 1>Lee in a cowbell match, in a bull rope match
<v Speaker 1>against Queen Aminata, who is wrestling Mercedes Monet on Dynamite
<v Speaker 1>tomorrow night for the AEW World Championship in France. Do
<v Speaker 1>you know or did you know that Queen Aminata, she
<v Speaker 1>used to live in France? She went to law school
<v Speaker 1>in France. She is going to lose in France. What
<v Speaker 1>do you think about it? I'm sorry, guys. This was
<v Speaker 1>a fail from the start. I like Aminata, but this
<v Speaker 1>was a fail from the start. I can't even will
<v Speaker 1>that into existence. And in our main event of the evening,
<v Speaker 1>it all comes down to this.
<v Speaker 2>Ugh.
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what. It is my birthday. You know what?
<v Speaker 1>It is my birthday. I'm going to overrule this because
<v Speaker 1>we already landed on this stipulation. I want a different one.
<v Speaker 1>I'm spinning again. I don't give a shit. I'm spinning again.
<v Speaker 1>No Iron Man match. We already had one. We already
<v Speaker 1>had one. This is going to be a hell in
<v Speaker 1>a cell. On the anniversary of the very first Hell
<v Speaker 1>in a Cell, I think it's actually very appropriate. that
<v Speaker 1>we have ourselves a Hell in a Cell match. Here
<v Speaker 1>we go. Oh, more Iron Man matches. Going inside the cell.
<v Speaker 1>Of all the people who are in here, who are
<v Speaker 1>we putting in the cell first? It is going to
<v Speaker 1>be the former WWE champion, Big E. Inside Hell in
<v Speaker 1>a Cell. Against Minoru Suzuki. Fuck it.
<v Speaker 2>Why not?
<v Speaker 1>Why not? Why not have Big E and Minoru Suzuki
<v Speaker 1>inside Hell in a Cell? There you go. We can't
<v Speaker 1>get the sweep because the women's match screwed it up,
<v Speaker 1>but at least we ended with a bell instead of
<v Speaker 1>a buzz. The repo man still took that first main
<v Speaker 1>event away from us. I'm pissed about that. How many
<v Speaker 1>more likes do we need? We're getting close to the
<v Speaker 1>likes goal. We're at 502. The wheel said 515. Hey Erlin,
<v Speaker 1>welcome to the channel. A little late, but that's okay.
<v Speaker 1>I won't hold it against you. Happy Halloween. We got
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of Super Chester read through here. I should
<v Speaker 1>probably read these and give you guys a chance to
<v Speaker 1>get those likes to 515. If we hit 515, we
<v Speaker 1>actually get one more round of Be The Booker. We
<v Speaker 1>might actually have one more round. Don't go nowhere. Spray JC,
<v Speaker 1>Be The Booker, Solid Monster versus Raising Arizona. I want
<v Speaker 1>to hear all about it.
<v Speaker 2>Devin.
<v Speaker 1>Devin. With a 499. Does Solo agree with Sam Roberts
<v Speaker 1>that Punk's second run in WWE might be better than
<v Speaker 1>his first? Happy birthday to Unsolom. Solomonster. I would say no. But,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I could be persuaded. I mean, as time
<v Speaker 1>goes on, perhaps he'll add to the body of work
<v Speaker 1>he's put together. Because, look, I mean, he had that
<v Speaker 1>incredible Hell in a Cell match with Drew McIntyre. He
<v Speaker 1>had a great WrestleMania main event, his first, officially, with
<v Speaker 1>Roman Reigns this year. Well, he had the Night One
<v Speaker 1>main event last year. So he's had some great matches.
<v Speaker 1>But just in terms of him as a character and
<v Speaker 1>on promos... coupled with the great matches he had back then,
<v Speaker 1>I can't vote against that first run. I'm sorry. I
<v Speaker 1>don't think he's passed that bar yet. I still lean
<v Speaker 1>towards that first run. And DeathScythe, with a $ 6 super chat, says,
<v Speaker 1>if Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar can blow off their
<v Speaker 1>feud on SmackDown in 2003, then there's no reason why
<v Speaker 1>Cody and Randy can't do the same. Well, I agree.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if they see it that way, but
<v Speaker 1>I don't disagree, and they may have to. Unless they
<v Speaker 1>want to wait until Crown Jewel and do it in Saudi,
<v Speaker 1>then it would have to be on SmackDown. And I
<v Speaker 1>just noticed that we have, in fact, hit 526 on
<v Speaker 1>the likes, which means we just unlocked, you just unlocked,
<v Speaker 1>a fourth round. of Be The Booker. So give yourselves
<v Speaker 1>a round of applause. It looks like we're going back
<v Speaker 1>to the board here. We're going to get another bite
<v Speaker 1>of the apple, guys. Somehow you guys pulled it off.
<v Speaker 1>Back we go for more. We get three more chances
<v Speaker 1>to try to go out on a high note here
<v Speaker 1>on a very special day. We're going to kick things
<v Speaker 1>off with a first blood match. Someone is bleeding.
<v Speaker 2>Nope.
<v Speaker 1>Nope. Nope. I hit the wrong button. All right, here
<v Speaker 1>we go. First blood match. Don't say Iron Man. If
<v Speaker 1>you say Iron Man, I'm going to send you out
<v Speaker 1>of here. All right, say it with me. L.A. Knights.
<v Speaker 1>Hold on. There you go. I didn't know where it was. Alright,
<v Speaker 1>LA Knight. Perhaps your next World Heavyweight Champion. Again, I'm
<v Speaker 1>going to try to stifle my laughter as I say that,
<v Speaker 1>but it is possible. He could be a World Heavyweight Champion.
<v Speaker 2>Oh, me.
<v Speaker 1>First blood match. LA Knight. Against Bret the Hitman Hart.
<v Speaker 2>Oh, man.
<v Speaker 1>Bret's going to Be the ring general in that ring.
<v Speaker 1>He's going to lead LA Knight to one of the
<v Speaker 1>best matches, if not the best match, that that man
<v Speaker 1>has had in his entire career. Calling it right now.
<v Speaker 1>I'm calling it right now. Best match of LA Knight's
<v Speaker 1>career against Bret Hart. It would be hard not to.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, again, it's fucking hit, man. So you can't
<v Speaker 1>go in there and have a great match with Bret Hart,
<v Speaker 1>then I'm sorry, but you don't know how to wrestle.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's just that simple. We got a last
<v Speaker 1>man standing match. I like that stipulation. That works for me.
<v Speaker 1>Last man standing match sounds good to me. I was
<v Speaker 1>going to go to the women this time, but it's
<v Speaker 1>a last man standing. So we have to go back
<v Speaker 1>to the men. Maybe that's what they're considering for Bayley
<v Speaker 1>and Lyra Valkyria. I don't know. Gunther. wants a stipulation added. Well,
<v Speaker 1>you big dumb bitch, we already have a stipulation added
<v Speaker 1>to the match. He wants another stipulation added. We can
<v Speaker 1>do that, actually. We can double up on the stipulations,
<v Speaker 1>so let's do that. We're going to double up on the...
<v Speaker 1>We don't do this very often, but we're going to
<v Speaker 1>double up on the stipulations. A last man standing 660. God. No. Why?
<v Speaker 1>All the stipulations you could have landed on. A last
<v Speaker 1>man standing $ 671, 000 all-star eight-man tag team match. If that
<v Speaker 1>doesn't scream overbooking, I don't know what does. It took
<v Speaker 1>me 10 minutes just to get that out. a $ 671, 000
<v Speaker 1>all-star eight-man tag team last man standing match. What the
<v Speaker 1>fuck are we doing here? How does that work? That's I, well,
<v Speaker 1>let's try to figure this out. So it's an eight-man
<v Speaker 1>tag team match. There's $ 671, 000 at stake. And I guess the, the,
<v Speaker 1>Legal men in the ring, when you're in the ring,
<v Speaker 1>it's last man standing rules. I mean, that's the way
<v Speaker 1>it works. I think it's pretty self-explanatory. Oh, that's right.
<v Speaker 1>I got to add clockwork carnage now to be the booker.
<v Speaker 1>I forgot about that. That's right. That new match stipulation.
<v Speaker 1>I'll talk more about that on Crown tomorrow. They're doing
<v Speaker 1>that at WrestleDream. All right, son of a bitch. I'm
<v Speaker 1>going to need your help with this. I'm going to
<v Speaker 1>need you guys to keep track of this. I got
<v Speaker 1>to pick eight guys now in this fucking match. And
<v Speaker 1>this is just the... What is this? Wait, this is
<v Speaker 1>the second match. Right, this is the second match. All right,
<v Speaker 1>here we go. I cannot believe we landed on that.
<v Speaker 1>I cannot believe. This is the most overbooked main event ever.
<v Speaker 1>I guess it's not the main event, but it's the
<v Speaker 1>most overbooked match I think that we've ever booked here.
<v Speaker 1>Do they split the $ 671, 000? Yes, of course they have
<v Speaker 1>to split it. The winning team gets $ 671, 000 to split.
<v Speaker 1>That's how it works. All right. First team is going to... Oh,
<v Speaker 1>my goodness gracious. Look who it is, everybody. Just in
<v Speaker 1>time for Halloween. Goldberg. It is Goolberg, everybody. Just in
<v Speaker 1>time for Halloween, it is Goolberg is with us. And
<v Speaker 1>teaming with Goolberg, this just gets, I don't know if
<v Speaker 1>I should say this gets better and better or this
<v Speaker 1>gets worse and worse. I don't know. I don't know
<v Speaker 1>what's going on here. Goolberg, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Oh my God.
<v Speaker 1>We have, we have Goulberg and we have the demon
<v Speaker 1>Finn Balor. So Goulberg, the demon Roddy Piper and their partner,
<v Speaker 1>Claudio Castagnoli, because of course we're going to round out
<v Speaker 1>the team of Claudio Piper, Claudio Goulberg and demon Balor.
<v Speaker 1>What a team, what a team. Well, now we got
<v Speaker 1>four people we have to pick to populate the other
<v Speaker 1>half of this match. I don't know what to expect here.
<v Speaker 1>This is just ridiculous. Their opponents... Thank you, RetroKOHs, keeping
<v Speaker 1>track of the teams in the chat. Their opponents are
<v Speaker 1>going to be... Motherfucker, are you fucking kidding me with this?
<v Speaker 2>How....
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he is technically undead, so you could have
<v Speaker 1>more than one. You could actually have more than one.
<v Speaker 1>So we have Goulberg on the opposite team as well.
<v Speaker 1>This is beyond ridiculous. I think... I think Goulberg, he
<v Speaker 1>really wants that money. Because see, now he's guaranteed either
<v Speaker 1>way to get his cut of the $ 671, 000. It's actually
<v Speaker 1>very genius on his part. He's getting the money no
<v Speaker 1>matter what. He can't lose. We have Goulberg. We have
<v Speaker 1>Brock Lesnar, who heard money, and so of course he
<v Speaker 1>wants to be in the match. We have... Batista.
<v Speaker 2>We have.
<v Speaker 1>Goulberg. We have the beast. We have the animal. And
<v Speaker 1>teaming with them. Oh my god. Okay. Okay. So let
<v Speaker 1>me get this straight. I'm trying very hard to keep
<v Speaker 1>track of this. This is a $ 671, 000 All-Star 8-Man Tag
<v Speaker 1>Team Match with Last Man Standing rules that is now
<v Speaker 1>being contested for the Undisputed WWE Championship. So the title
<v Speaker 1>is on the line. We have Goulberg on both sides,
<v Speaker 1>by the way. Okay, he's on both teams. And I
<v Speaker 1>guess the way it's going to work is that whoever
<v Speaker 1>gets the winning fall in this match will get the
<v Speaker 1>undisputed title. And we still have one more person to pick.
<v Speaker 1>We need one more name. Are we all clear on this?
<v Speaker 1>I told you this is the most Oprah-booked match in
<v Speaker 1>the history of Be The Booker. And J. Fucking Uso.
<v Speaker 1>Main event, Jey Uso. I don't even, like, I'm just
<v Speaker 1>going to give it the bell at this point because
<v Speaker 1>it's just so utterly preposterous to me. Goulberg, Brock Lesnar, Batista,
<v Speaker 1>and Jey Uso. In a $ 671, 000 All-Star 8-Man Tag Team
<v Speaker 1>Last Man Standing match for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Ladies
<v Speaker 1>and gentlemen, Vince Russo. Has struck again. With all these stipulations.
<v Speaker 1>Vince Russo has struck again. Is all I have to say.
<v Speaker 1>That is by far. And it's not even close. Not
<v Speaker 1>even close. The most overbooked match in the history. Of
<v Speaker 1>Be The Booker. And I never want to see that again.
<v Speaker 1>We have one match left to book. And that is it.
<v Speaker 1>This will be a blindfold match. We're keeping it simple.
<v Speaker 1>Keeping it very simple now. No overbooking. We have Roosh.
<v Speaker 1>We didn't even mess with the bull. You get the Hearns.
<v Speaker 1>There he is. We got Roosh. He's going to be
<v Speaker 1>in a blindfold. How do you follow that you don't?
<v Speaker 1>The answer is you don't. Roosh and Shingo Takagi in
<v Speaker 1>a blindfold match. You know, as the promoter now, all
<v Speaker 1>these wrestlers are going to be coming to me when
<v Speaker 1>the show is over, and I have to have the
<v Speaker 1>cash on hand now to pay them. They're cut of
<v Speaker 1>the $ 671, 000. Thanks, TK. Appreciate it. Well, that was something.
<v Speaker 1>That was something else. Man. It's a great match, though.
<v Speaker 1>Shingo Takagi and Roosh. That's a great. That's a great.
<v Speaker 1>This is a wrestling match. That's a great match. Spray
<v Speaker 1>JC says with a 10. Look in my eyes. I'm
<v Speaker 1>the captain. You will watch Raising Arizona. Make me. Power
<v Speaker 1>of Spy and Games, we've never landed on Goulberg before tonight.
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you, man, as soon as he heard that
<v Speaker 1>there was $ 671, 000 on the line, all of a sudden
<v Speaker 1>he popped up. Yeah, Brock wants his cut. Brock is like,
<v Speaker 1>you can Venmo me. And the Juliette. Says very simply,
<v Speaker 1>happy birthday, Salamonster. Thank you very much. Thank you, Juliet. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>it is officially after 1 a.m.
<v Speaker 2>Now.
<v Speaker 1>Oh, my God. It is after 1 a.m. I appreciate
<v Speaker 1>all of you for hanging out with me here and
<v Speaker 1>making this a really fun Raw stream. More fun than
<v Speaker 1>Raw was tonight, as a matter of fact. And we
<v Speaker 1>get to do it all over again because on my
<v Speaker 1>birthday today, there is going to be an AEW Grand
<v Speaker 1>Slam France show later tonight. I will be live on
<v Speaker 1>YouTube when that show is over for the review. So
<v Speaker 1>we'll have the proper birthday stream and hopefully you guys
<v Speaker 1>will hang out with me and we'll have some more fun.
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we'll book some more $ 671, 000 all-star eight-man tags. I
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I never know what it's going to land
<v Speaker 1>on when we do be the booker. It just seems
<v Speaker 1>to get crazier and crazier by the week. Anyway, hit
<v Speaker 1>that like button on your way out if you have
<v Speaker 1>not already done so. Again, go back and check out
<v Speaker 1>episode 983 of The Sound Off. Also, don't forget a
