<v Speaker 1>This is WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre and you're listening to
<v Speaker 1>the WWE podcast.

<v Speaker 2>for sixteen, So we your ass is mind.
<v Speaker 3>You're gonna acknowledge me.
<v Speaker 2>All right.
<v Speaker 4>Time to hear from you guys. Time to hear from
<v Speaker 4>all of you from the ether, I guess, depending on
<v Speaker 4>where you are anywhere in the US or abroad. Time
<v Speaker 4>to get your voices on the show, not just in text,
<v Speaker 4>but of course we might have a voicemail or two
<v Speaker 4>to share as well, and we're going to get to
<v Speaker 4>that in a moment. But I would like to welcome
<v Speaker 4>you to the show. And if you're a brand new
<v Speaker 4>and you want to participate on the mailbag, you can

<v Speaker 4>If you're a patron, you get priority support, so to speak,
<v Speaker 4>but your replacement is probably a better word. You can
<v Speaker 4>get your your email read right at the beginning of
<v Speaker 4>the show, and that's what we're gonna do right now,
<v Speaker 4>and start with let's start with Dino and he says,
<v Speaker 4>what's up ww podcast world. Now, before we get into it,
<v Speaker 4>let me say, let me send a prayer as I've
<v Speaker 4>either had COVID of the flu since the weekend, so
<v Speaker 4>I feel terrible, and you know, once I end up
<v Speaker 4>with the flu, that's it. It's that season to batten
<v Speaker 4>down the hatches and wrap up warm when you head out.
<v Speaker 4>I'm not looking forward to that. I've been sick once
<v Speaker 4>so far since fall began, and I mean, I have
<v Speaker 4>two kids here. Anybody with the kids can attest to
<v Speaker 4>the fact that they are just walking Petrie dishes and
<v Speaker 4>so we have a long winter ahead of us. There's
<v Speaker 4>just no way around it. I was sick for about
<v Speaker 4>three and a half months straight last year, and I'm
<v Speaker 4>not even kidding. It was back to back to back
<v Speaker 4>to back. I think I had COVID. I probably had
<v Speaker 4>the flu. I didn't get myself tested. I just went
<v Speaker 4>through it. I mean, even if you get tested, what
<v Speaker 4>the hell's the difference. They don't have a cure, you know,
<v Speaker 4>So there's no pill you can take. Oh you have COVID,
<v Speaker 4>Here's here's the cure. Oh you have the flu, here's
<v Speaker 4>a cure. Like you know, you know what to do, right,
<v Speaker 4>just rest, rest, drink water, whatever. So I'm not looking
<v Speaker 4>forward to it all right now. My first four points
<v Speaker 4>about the Mister McMahon documentary on Netflix. And it's a
<v Speaker 4>little controversial, to say the least. So if you want
<v Speaker 4>to skip over these four points entirely, it say it's cool.
<v Speaker 4>Well no I don't, but after dark episode, as you
<v Speaker 4>said about this may not be a bad idea, and
<v Speaker 4>so let's go.
<v Speaker 2>All right.
<v Speaker 4>So, by the way, if anybody hasn't seen the documentary,
<v Speaker 4>I'm one of them. But I'm willing to take spoilers.
<v Speaker 4>I'm okay, I've seen snippets. Now is a warning if
<v Speaker 4>you don't want to hear about it right now, may
<v Speaker 4>not be the best time to listen, but I'd encourage
<v Speaker 4>you to. All right, so tiny spoiler alert. So let's go.
<v Speaker 4>So we have the first four points, as you said.
<v Speaker 4>One thing I learned, the first one from the Mister
<v Speaker 4>McMahon documentary on Netflix that came out of the blue,
<v Speaker 4>which I did not expect, was to learn about Pat
<v Speaker 4>Patterson being a pedophile. Now, of course that's not official
<v Speaker 4>or anything, and he's never been convicted, but he was
<v Speaker 4>accused by the Ring Boys during the nineteen eighties, and
<v Speaker 4>Tony Atlas even said during one of his interviews that
<v Speaker 4>Pat just quote grabbed his pecker in the locker room. Now,
<v Speaker 4>if it was a complete if it was capable, or
<v Speaker 4>he was capable of doing that to an adult, it
<v Speaker 4>would be easier to do it to a child. Botline is,
<v Speaker 4>if I had a child, what I trust Pat Patterson
<v Speaker 4>to look after them? The answer is hell no. Yeah,
<v Speaker 4>obviously unsubstantiated claims. Yeah, we all know he came out
<v Speaker 4>as a gay wrestler or whatever, you know, and maybe
<v Speaker 4>there are stories that come out just to smear him.
<v Speaker 4>I mean, we'll never know. Accusations carry a lot of weight,
<v Speaker 4>but Pat obviously is not here anymore, or they're just accusations.
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if they're true. I don't know if
<v Speaker 4>they're false. So it's hard to hard to really pick
<v Speaker 4>on one side or the other without just relying on
<v Speaker 4>people's hearsay. Another thing I learned from the documentary was
<v Speaker 4>the storyline about Vince impregnating Stephanie. I had no idea
<v Speaker 4>it was a storyline that was even pitched in the
<v Speaker 4>first place. I found it deeply disturbing, if I'm being honest. Yeah,
<v Speaker 4>I did see that part that's making its rounds on
<v Speaker 4>the internet, and Stephanie said, yeah, I just can't do that,
<v Speaker 4>because then what do I do? You know, she said that,
<v Speaker 4>am I going to pretend to be in love with
<v Speaker 4>my father on television? She said, it's just gross, and
<v Speaker 4>she said that, you know. Once she turned that down,
<v Speaker 4>Vince then proposed Shane being the one who impregnated her,
<v Speaker 4>and obviously that never came to pass either. So Vince
<v Speaker 4>at one point had a bit of a sick, twisted
<v Speaker 4>bit of an incest driven storyline idea that never came
<v Speaker 4>to pass, thank god. But I mean, that's horrible. It's horrible.
<v Speaker 4>In the documentary you see a lot of the old
<v Speaker 4>footage from the Attitude era, and as Triple Ah put
<v Speaker 4>it on the show, I look back at some of
<v Speaker 4>the things they did and wonder how the hell they
<v Speaker 4>got away with it. It was great TV in a way, though,
<v Speaker 4>especially for those between the ages of eighteen to thirty four.
<v Speaker 4>And another thing I noticed is they actually showed old
<v Speaker 4>footage of the Rocks speaking at a Republican national convention.
<v Speaker 4>That was a surprise, because of anything, I thought the
<v Speaker 4>Rock would have been a Democrat. He well, I don't
<v Speaker 4>know when that was. It must have been several years ago,
<v Speaker 4>because the Rock in twenty twenty did endorse Joe Biden
<v Speaker 4>and then rescinded that just a number of months ago.
<v Speaker 4>I think the Rock, to be quite honest with you,
<v Speaker 4>truly has a lot of conservative Republican beliefs, but I
<v Speaker 4>think outwardly he knows, given Hollywood is so far to
<v Speaker 4>the left, that for his own preservation as a star,
<v Speaker 4>he needs to pretend outwardly that he's a Democrat, if
<v Speaker 4>that makes sense. So moving on though, I'm only bringing
<v Speaker 4>up politics because someone here. Okay, guys, I'm not going
<v Speaker 4>to dive into it. That's for my other show. If
<v Speaker 4>you want to take a listen, which I'll be dropping
<v Speaker 4>a new episode probably tonight. It's called The War on Truth.
<v Speaker 4>Take a listen. It's available everywhere that this show is
<v Speaker 4>in regards to you saying there were all review that
<v Speaker 4>no one gives a damn about the women's tag team
<v Speaker 4>divisions and if they do their lying, well, I actually did.
<v Speaker 4>When the Unholy Union were tag champs, I had a
<v Speaker 4>legit interest and was hoping that they were finally taken seriously,
<v Speaker 4>and my hope grew more that the more the longer
<v Speaker 4>the Unholy Union held the titles until WWE proved once
<v Speaker 4>again they don't care about the Women's Tag champions Championships.
<v Speaker 4>So that's when I decided to go not go back
<v Speaker 4>to not caring either. So yes, that's why no one
<v Speaker 4>cares because WWE doesn't care. And you may have had
<v Speaker 4>glimpses of wait a minute, do I Oh wait, No,
<v Speaker 4>that's what you had. You had a fleeting moment. You
<v Speaker 4>had an illusion until WWE consistently shows us that they
<v Speaker 4>can care and do care. Why should the fan? You're
<v Speaker 4>a perfect example of that. Do you know? I want
<v Speaker 4>to care, but they give us reason time after time
<v Speaker 4>after time not to. I said it last week, I'll
<v Speaker 4>say it again. Read versus Strowman deserves to be on
<v Speaker 4>a pl e. This match deserved to be concluded at
<v Speaker 4>Bad Blood with the absolute destruction, carnage and chaos that
<v Speaker 4>it's going to be involved in this And I'm of
<v Speaker 4>the opinion this deserve to be wrapped up at Bad
<v Speaker 4>Blood because it's gonna be a hell of a match.
<v Speaker 4>In fact, it's going to be an absolute banger and
<v Speaker 4>I can't wait to see it. Also, it's funnily enough,
<v Speaker 4>a match I'd happily pay to see. So yeah, I
<v Speaker 4>can't wait, bring it on. Yeah, they've caught lighting at
<v Speaker 4>a bottle here. But as I've said, it's a bit
<v Speaker 4>of a short term program because there's not gonna be
<v Speaker 4>anything deep going on here. They're not gonna cut super
<v Speaker 4>intricate promos. This is all about destruction. So it's fun.
<v Speaker 4>It's a big flash in a pan and it'll be remembered.
<v Speaker 4>But at the same time, it's not gonna be anything
<v Speaker 4>that's long term. So finally, yeat. I just like to
<v Speaker 4>say or just like the by telling everyone how proud
<v Speaker 4>I was this past week of one of my current
<v Speaker 4>favorite stars, Jay Uso. Man, he deserves this. The man
<v Speaker 4>has worked his ass off for over a decade and
<v Speaker 4>now he's finally arrived and established himself as a singles
<v Speaker 4>competitor and is reaping the rewards for his hard work.
<v Speaker 4>I'm proud of you. Ooz onwards and upwards to bigger,
<v Speaker 4>better things on Raw, even while being involved with the
<v Speaker 4>bloodline on SmackDown. At the same time, who knows what's
<v Speaker 4>next World heavyweight champion? Maybe who knows? Over now, thanks buddy,
<v Speaker 4>And yeah, I mean jay Uso does deserve it. The
<v Speaker 4>timing is very suspicious and I mean it's very suspicious.
<v Speaker 4>I don't hate it, it's just I don't know how
<v Speaker 4>they're going to navigate these waters of jbing IC Champion
<v Speaker 4>and at the same time rejoining the bloodline assumingly. I
<v Speaker 4>have to say that because it's not official, but it
<v Speaker 4>would make no sense if Jay didn't. So yeah, all right,
<v Speaker 4>let's continue here with another patron or, mister dj Kuzmo.
<v Speaker 4>He said, so, what's everyone's thoughts on Joe testator after
<v Speaker 4>just three weeks of being on the new commentator for RAW.
<v Speaker 4>Before anyone could answer, I got to say that I
<v Speaker 4>like Joe. He like his energy and his level of
<v Speaker 4>enthusiasm for the matches. Obviously, he's not a Michael Cole
<v Speaker 4>want to be like Kevin Patrick. That's true, and given
<v Speaker 4>more time, Joe, in my opinion, will excel as a
<v Speaker 4>commentator for RAW. Some fans may not like his style,
<v Speaker 4>while others like me, like his style of commentating. It's
<v Speaker 4>all subjective. Monday Night Raw of the last years have
<v Speaker 4>have had some failed experiments with guys like adinin verk Oh.
<v Speaker 5>That's what it is.
<v Speaker 4>I couldn't remember the name. Yes, he was terrible. Jimmy Smith, Yes, agree,
<v Speaker 4>terrible and don't forget Kevin Patrick, who at time sounded
<v Speaker 4>like he was out of breath. Yes, all three.
<v Speaker 2>Of these guys.
<v Speaker 4>By the way, DJ, I have no good memories of none,
<v Speaker 4>so totally agree. And hopefully this team of Wade and
<v Speaker 4>Joe Tessa tour continues on Monday Night when they move
<v Speaker 4>to Netflix. As the saying goes of two's a company,
<v Speaker 4>three's a crowd. What does that mean when Pat returns
<v Speaker 4>to WE after college football season?
<v Speaker 2>Good question.
<v Speaker 4>I don't want three, but they probably will do three.
<v Speaker 4>I'm a big fan of two. Two is enough to
<v Speaker 4>direct traffic and three is too many voices to listen to.
<v Speaker 4>Three is just infinitely more than two when it comes
<v Speaker 4>to commentary. But if Joe continues to succeed, I could
<v Speaker 4>see easily just having three men at the booth. I
<v Speaker 4>don't want it, but they probably will. One final thing
<v Speaker 4>to mention, Brad made a good point last week on
<v Speaker 4>the voicemail portion when he mentioned that Roman's new entrance
<v Speaker 4>doesn't have any build. I just don't understand why the
<v Speaker 4>change was made to Roman's theme music. The version sounds
<v Speaker 4>flat with no build to the music to get the
<v Speaker 4>crowd amped. But I guess only a few of US
<v Speaker 4>fans notice this issue. By the way, if the rumors
<v Speaker 4>are true and Hayman is not realigning returning to align
<v Speaker 4>with Roman, who do you think Paul Hayman will align
<v Speaker 4>with next? Djkuzmas signing off. Well, that's a good question.
<v Speaker 4>I have no idea who Paul Hayman would return with
<v Speaker 4>and help. There's really no one else. I mean, who's
<v Speaker 4>Paul Haman gonna come beyond. Not only is there no
<v Speaker 4>one else that makes sense, but if he comes back
<v Speaker 4>and help somebody else, everyone's gonna say, what the hell
<v Speaker 4>are you doing? Roman? You just got beat up and attacked.
<v Speaker 4>Remember you guys had your your wise man get beat up,
<v Speaker 4>and then he's gonna return and help somebody else. It
<v Speaker 4>makes no sense. I don't buy those rumors at all,
<v Speaker 4>that Paul Hayman's returning to help somebody else or manage
<v Speaker 4>somebody else. It makes absolutely no sense.
<v Speaker 5>Zero.
<v Speaker 4>You know what would actually be fun, as a quick thought,
<v Speaker 4>would if somehow the bloodline still overpowers the og bloodline.
<v Speaker 4>They're getting beat down week after week after the reunion.
<v Speaker 4>All that Paul Hayman makes a call. Paul Hayman says,
<v Speaker 4>I've got a friend or for weeks you don't know
<v Speaker 4>who he's talking to, and the blood Line continues to
<v Speaker 4>get beat down. Roman continues to get beat down, and
<v Speaker 4>then we have one maybe at a pl e Paul
<v Speaker 4>Hayman make good on who he's been talking to the
<v Speaker 4>last month or so, and brock Lesner's music hits and
<v Speaker 4>he helps out Roman reigns as a favorite of Paul Hayman.
<v Speaker 4>I know it sounds far fetched. We all look at
<v Speaker 4>Brocklesner as returning to face Gunther at some point, which
<v Speaker 4>would be a lot of fun. But that's how I
<v Speaker 4>look at it. In my mind. Is Paul Hayman bringing
<v Speaker 4>in brock Lesnar on a temporary basis, He wouldn't join
<v Speaker 4>the Bloodline, he would be there and assist two. If
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, it's probably not going to happen, but
<v Speaker 4>that's how I do it. The answer, though, is no,
<v Speaker 4>Paul Hayman is not going to be returning to help
<v Speaker 4>anyone else, zero chance. I think makes no sense none.
<v Speaker 4>So all right, let's continue with another patron. I know
<v Speaker 4>we do have a few of you who have messaged
<v Speaker 4>me directly in the system here and a couple direct
<v Speaker 4>messages from let's see here r turo, He says Aj
<v Speaker 4>here Aj. With Jay winning the IC Belt, I have
<v Speaker 4>a feeling that the upcoming Crown Jewel PLI in October
<v Speaker 4>Brown will get his rematch and win due to bloodline interference.
<v Speaker 4>This will be the reason why Jay will eventually rejoin forces.
<v Speaker 4>That's smart. Yeah, I am not a proponent of hot potato,
<v Speaker 4>but if you're gonna give Jay us a reason to
<v Speaker 4>rejoin the bloodline, I like that. Maybe maybe that's how
<v Speaker 4>they do it, with some kind of interference from I
<v Speaker 4>don't know, somebody in the bloodline, Solo's bloodline that costs
<v Speaker 4>Jay the match, which does bring him back. Now, you
<v Speaker 4>could also argue that having Jimmy come back and get
<v Speaker 4>his ass kicked week after week, since they're brothers, they've
<v Speaker 4>already had their terrible match at WrestleMania, that they have
<v Speaker 4>mended defenses and blood s thicker than water, and Jay
<v Speaker 4>will come to the defense of his flesh and blood Jimmy.
<v Speaker 4>I think that's more likely, but you're right. They could
<v Speaker 4>take that road as well, where he goes right back
<v Speaker 4>to braun Breaker and Jay us Is does now have
<v Speaker 4>a reason beyond Jimmy USO to help Roman because now
<v Speaker 4>they have a common enemy. So all right, and Jeff,
<v Speaker 4>you asked if it's too late to do a mailbag,
<v Speaker 4>how about this kind of Well, I will say sending
<v Speaker 4>your message no matter what, because I record these now
<v Speaker 4>on a Friday, but if I miss it, it can
<v Speaker 4>be put on a Sunday or put on the next
<v Speaker 4>mail bag, so you don't ever have to worry about, Oh,
<v Speaker 4>it is too late to send it in. Just send
<v Speaker 4>them in. I'll get to them, you know what I mean.
<v Speaker 4>So just no matter what time of the day, a week,
<v Speaker 4>or day it is, send them in. I'll get to
<v Speaker 4>them at some point, either Friday, Sunday or the final
<v Speaker 4>or the following mail bag. Okay, let's continue and go
<v Speaker 4>to Robert. He says, I think Bronson Reid and Bronze
<v Speaker 4>Stan will realize that both of them seem to be indestructible.
<v Speaker 4>This will give them an opportunity to enter the tag
<v Speaker 4>team title chase and make the tag team title more interesting.
<v Speaker 4>There are two mid carters that are presented as unstoppable
<v Speaker 4>and indestructible. Who can beat them? I don't know, just
<v Speaker 4>a guess it's possible, possible, Robert, no doubt about it.
<v Speaker 4>People want to see these two though, destroy each other
<v Speaker 4>before anything like that happens. And also they've been trying
<v Speaker 4>to position Bronson read As as a singles star. Putting
<v Speaker 4>them together and a tag team will be fun and
<v Speaker 4>they'd be dominant. But is that good for the long
<v Speaker 4>term future of what they're trying to do with Bronson Reid.
<v Speaker 4>I don't know. This isn't a stupid answer or assumption.
<v Speaker 4>I think that's actually kind of a smart one to
<v Speaker 4>reinvigorate the tag team division. But we all know, just
<v Speaker 4>like with the women's they don't ever really care as
<v Speaker 4>much about the tag team division as they do with
<v Speaker 4>the singles. That's just the way it is and will
<v Speaker 4>forever be. So they have glimpses in periods where they
<v Speaker 4>prop up the tag team division and then it gets
<v Speaker 4>promptly knocked back down to the you know, the second
<v Speaker 4>or third in command of what they care about. So
<v Speaker 4>I think it's possible, but not probable. Okay, let's go
<v Speaker 4>to the next email, and Anthony Anthony C. Says I'm
<v Speaker 4>writing in regards to the vacant NXT podcast position. All right, well, Anthony,
<v Speaker 4>I really appreciate it. Let's keep you on unreserved. And
<v Speaker 4>the reason I said that it's not because our NXT
<v Speaker 4>host isn't great in Jay and Jay you do a
<v Speaker 4>great job. It's because we may have other shows that
<v Speaker 4>you know, we may bring on board. So Anthony, if
<v Speaker 4>you have other things that you want to do, you
<v Speaker 4>know that's not specific to just an NXT review, because
<v Speaker 4>we currently have that filled. Then I'm all ears, Anthony,
<v Speaker 4>send me an email.
<v Speaker 2>I see it.
<v Speaker 4>I'm reading yours. Now, you give me your number. Cool,
<v Speaker 4>but send me ideas if you have some for potential
<v Speaker 4>news shows that we can provide on the feed here,
<v Speaker 4>all right, and that goes for let's see here, let's
<v Speaker 4>see Howard. P all right, Howard, same deal. I know,
<v Speaker 4>longtime listener. I appreciate it. You're also interested in the
<v Speaker 4>n XT deal since we do have it filled. As
<v Speaker 4>I said, everyone, this really goes for everybody that didn't
<v Speaker 4>get the position. If you still want to contribute in
<v Speaker 4>some way, then I would say, send me ideas and
<v Speaker 4>sample shows that you want to be able to maybe
<v Speaker 4>contribute to this to this network. If you have an
<v Speaker 4>idea of a show type or when you'd like to
<v Speaker 4>release it, that kind of thing. Topics deep dives, co hosts, whatever,
<v Speaker 4>please send me those ideas and maybe we can talk
<v Speaker 4>about it.
<v Speaker 6>All right.
<v Speaker 4>I just request that please everybody who is interested in
<v Speaker 4>contributing to the show when it comes to new kinds
<v Speaker 4>of shows, new new episodes every week, would be quality mics,

<v Speaker 3>on TNA Pro Wrestling as they were still in San Antonio,
<v Speaker 3>Texas after the pay per view event Victoria that had
<v Speaker 3>last week. Joe Hendrick comes to a standing ovation as
<v Speaker 3>he is going to focus now on the TNA World
<v Speaker 3>Heavyweight Championship. But all of a sudden, as he is
<v Speaker 3>talking about his goals to become a TNA World Heavyweight Champion,
<v Speaker 3>here comes Frankie Kazarian.
<v Speaker 2>That's right, the so called Kig of TNA.
<v Speaker 3>As he comes in to interrupt Joe Hendry talks about
<v Speaker 3>how he's sick and tired of Joe Hendry, talks about
<v Speaker 3>how the crowd always says his name and everything that
<v Speaker 3>he just absolutely despises about Joe Hendry. And he also
<v Speaker 3>says that how he needs his championship opportunity, not Joe Hendry.
<v Speaker 3>But then here comes the champion, the TNA World Heavyweight
<v Speaker 3>Champion nickname it you know for those that remember him
<v Speaker 3>as Dolf Ziggler.
<v Speaker 2>He is currently the champion.
<v Speaker 3>As we get the commissioner, here comes sant Tino Morella
<v Speaker 3>as he comes into interrupt all three guys. As now
<v Speaker 3>we're gonna have for disc coming Thursday on TNA Pro Wrestling,
<v Speaker 3>frank Ki Gazarian versus Joe Hendry. The winner of this
<v Speaker 3>match will be able to face Nick Nemitt for the
<v Speaker 3>TNA World Heavyweight Championship down at Boundful Glory, which will
<v Speaker 3>be happening on October twenty six in Detroit, Michigan.
<v Speaker 2>Can Joe Hendry be the one to get the.
<v Speaker 3>Victory to challenge Nick Nemett for the championship on October
<v Speaker 3>twenty six at Boundful Glory. Let's see as this could
<v Speaker 3>be the time for Joe Hendri to move up to
<v Speaker 3>another level as a TNA World Heavyweight Champion. So with
<v Speaker 3>that being said, always remember to say his name, Believe
<v Speaker 3>and most and poorly remember the words that Joe Hendry
<v Speaker 3>always says anytime, any place, at any show, at most
<v Speaker 3>and poorly.
<v Speaker 2>Remember to do this strong science well believe to Hendy.
<v Speaker 3>Today once again, this is your guy, DJ COOLSMO, have
<v Speaker 3>a blessed week, big guy to one of those stays
<v Speaker 3>in my friends, Believe and peace.
<v Speaker 2>DJ.
<v Speaker 4>Good to hear from you, as always good to hear
<v Speaker 4>about what's happening with Joe Hendry. Those of us that
<v Speaker 4>aren't following his career intimately, he's taking a bit of
<v Speaker 4>a detour. We all think everything's just NXT to the
<v Speaker 4>main roster, and that's not the case here. You know,
<v Speaker 4>you get t and a involved other focuses. You know,
<v Speaker 4>you'll want people totally ready before they come to the
<v Speaker 4>main roster. You don't want to just, you know, just
<v Speaker 4>shoot them up there with no plan. And if you
<v Speaker 4>feel that they're not ready yet, and you know, maybe
<v Speaker 4>he has, maybe he isn't. But it's nice to see
<v Speaker 4>that they're taking their time with him, getting fans to
<v Speaker 4>know who and what he is, establish a base, fan
<v Speaker 4>base that makes sense, a fan base, and that's what
<v Speaker 4>they're doing. And it's really cool to hear what he's
<v Speaker 4>doing and coolly hear from you, DJ and I hope
<v Speaker 4>you enjoy everything, and we will be talking next week.
<v Speaker 4>Let's continue.
<v Speaker 5>He's kind of a Bosmo, so I want to enterate
<v Speaker 5>by pros Savar series again about the work about the
<v Speaker 5>War Games Max stuff, about the Bloodline stuff. Now, let's
<v Speaker 5>just say I think it's called before Rod tonight those
<v Speaker 5>who knows, but let's just say that Jay that Tippy
<v Speaker 5>came came back tonight and An attempted to help Jay
<v Speaker 5>but failed course or whatever. So I do you think
<v Speaker 5>rodsber titty for hitting the night But it's just I'm
<v Speaker 5>just my my question really is there enough time to
<v Speaker 5>build that up properly for betweting if it's going to
<v Speaker 5>be a wargames and max because usually throughout the last
<v Speaker 5>two war games it kind of started headed into the
<v Speaker 5>summer and whoever it was again, I think back to
<v Speaker 5>Judge the Day and Rawlins or whatever whatever stuff like
<v Speaker 5>that that lasted the summer last year till to War
<v Speaker 5>Games in November. They list damaged control and you know
<v Speaker 5>with damage control and be off of l a two.
<v Speaker 6>Years in a row.
<v Speaker 5>It started throughout the summer and it ended at in November.
<v Speaker 5>So whatever is going to happen again? Was? I just
<v Speaker 5>don't know if there's enough time to tell his story
<v Speaker 5>properly with JA so wereunited with with Jimmy and range
<v Speaker 5>that quickly and honestly, if that happens, will people be
<v Speaker 5>okay with that? Who will be satisfied with that? With
<v Speaker 5>at a couple of weeks notice of a couple of
<v Speaker 5>weeks of forgiveness, you would think that will take a
<v Speaker 5>little bit longer, a couple of months, you would think, So.
<v Speaker 6>I don't know.
<v Speaker 5>I just don't think it's That's why I'm struggling to
<v Speaker 5>come up with a fair argument of being a Wargas
<v Speaker 5>match volving the Bloodline. But like you said the last week,
<v Speaker 5>you know they the Range is the biggest start of
<v Speaker 5>the company. They want to try to do what to
<v Speaker 5>have them on the show I Go, which I think
<v Speaker 5>they will be. I Sti'll know if they're gona be
<v Speaker 5>inside the Wargames match itself, because there's been no indication.
<v Speaker 6>There's been nothing.
<v Speaker 5>Jay has met has said nothing about what's going on
<v Speaker 5>over on SmackDown, so neither has Roman neither. So I'm
<v Speaker 5>struggling to come up with an idea of a war
<v Speaker 5>Games match between the blood Line and Wonder's been no
<v Speaker 5>interaction with either now for months, So that's just where
<v Speaker 5>I've come up with. Maybe such the will change tonight,
<v Speaker 5>but that was my main point from last week, So
<v Speaker 5>that way is to clarify a little bit more.
<v Speaker 6>But that's it.
<v Speaker 4>They all right, Cole, Well, that's a good yeah, a
<v Speaker 4>good point. It does seem like they don't have enough time,
<v Speaker 4>but do they? I mean they rush stuff a lot.
<v Speaker 4>This one is one that you don't need a ton
<v Speaker 4>of time to build. Everyone understands the story. They don't
<v Speaker 4>need a foundation because everyone understands who and what everyone is,
<v Speaker 4>and we're all waiting for it to happen anyway. It's
<v Speaker 4>not like it's gonna come out of left field. There's
<v Speaker 4>not a ton of story that needs to be told.
<v Speaker 4>There's not a lot of promos that need to be cut.
<v Speaker 4>I mean, outside of the eventual maybe piecemeal reuniting Jimmy
<v Speaker 4>probably coming back first, Paul Hayman and tow Jay comes
<v Speaker 4>back next, you know, eventually maybe Sammy's ain comes in
<v Speaker 4>and the odd ballproclessner. But also, you know, having Jay
<v Speaker 4>win the Intercontinental Championship does throw a lot of the
<v Speaker 4>fans off, the scent, off the trail, as I said
<v Speaker 4>on Mind to Night Raw, because it's something no one expected.
<v Speaker 4>Many people with brown Breakers just winning it fifty days ago,
<v Speaker 4>thought well, he's on a run. It'll go towards maybe
<v Speaker 4>to wrestle Mania, and they were trying to establish a
<v Speaker 4>new star and he's seemingly benefiting from being the Icy Champion.
<v Speaker 4>And then you have Jay who hasn't been a champion,
<v Speaker 4>a single star ever in WWE, which is mind blowing,
<v Speaker 4>and yes, he deserves it and it should be a
<v Speaker 4>big moment, but is it really going to come at
<v Speaker 4>the sacrifice of or bron breaker right now? Is it
<v Speaker 4>really going to come at the sacrifice of how do
<v Speaker 4>we inter weave this with the bloodline reuniting now and
<v Speaker 4>he's on Raw and they're on SmackDown and he's Icy Champ,
<v Speaker 4>and how do.
<v Speaker 2>We do this?
<v Speaker 4>And I mean, there's a lot of weirdness, but maybe
<v Speaker 4>maybe it's as simple as a one off match where
<v Speaker 4>Jay is only involved for one month, you know, from
<v Speaker 4>post to if there's a Crown jewel in October till
<v Speaker 4>until the reuniting of the match, and then the result
<v Speaker 4>of it, whatever it is, Jay goes back to Raw
<v Speaker 4>and does this thing with the Icy Belt. So it's
<v Speaker 4>really only a temporary hiatus, a short one for the
<v Speaker 4>Intercontinental Championship and having it kind of not be the
<v Speaker 4>focus of his run. But that's kind of how I'm
<v Speaker 4>looking at it right now. All right, let's get to
<v Speaker 4>the next sportsmail.
<v Speaker 6>Ask the French guy here, you're current European champion. I
<v Speaker 6>wanted to talk about the recently released Vince McMahon series
<v Speaker 6>on Netflix. Spoiler alert. If you didn't see, I won't
<v Speaker 6>spoil that much. But if you don't want to hear
<v Speaker 6>about it, just past this audio don't listen to it.
<v Speaker 6>So now I'm going to spoil a little bit. So
<v Speaker 6>if you like the Netflix series, I just finished it.
<v Speaker 6>It was I would say average, maybe above average. I
<v Speaker 6>expected some insight to be better because most of the
<v Speaker 6>thing that they are actually saying we already know as
<v Speaker 6>wrestling fans. I was expecting to have exclusive news, exclusive insights,
<v Speaker 6>more interviews we see Dave Messler, Bruce Pritchard. I think
<v Speaker 6>not that much of people. Also, if you plan on
<v Speaker 6>watching this series, if you're a wrestling fans just like me,
<v Speaker 6>just like maybe most of us on the show, just
<v Speaker 6>watch the two last episodes. The rest is really like
<v Speaker 6>historical on how Vince McMahon built WWF and WWE, but
<v Speaker 6>not that interesting. In my opinion, I would say like
<v Speaker 6>the whole goal of the series to depict Vince McMann
<v Speaker 6>as this gigantic promoter, but as also someone that is
<v Speaker 6>humanly not good, that is responsible for you know, hush
<v Speaker 6>money and those things. What I think about it is it's,
<v Speaker 6>honestly for this series, not super deep. That's my problem.
<v Speaker 6>They didn't go into like specifics, they didn't went into
<v Speaker 6>exclusive stuff which they could have made. They could have,
<v Speaker 6>you know, like most of the information already done. We
<v Speaker 6>already know about it. So I would advise if you
<v Speaker 6>want to see if you don't know that much about
<v Speaker 6>Vince McMahon and WWE, you can watch it. But outside
<v Speaker 6>of that, just watched the two last episodes of the series,
<v Speaker 6>and yeah, my opinion in general, I don't know. I
<v Speaker 6>don't really know what Vince McMahon is. Surely the controversial figure,
<v Speaker 6>but one thing for sure is that he is maybe
<v Speaker 6>the most important character in WWE history, and that's fact
<v Speaker 6>that's undeniable. Yeah, maybe a little bit more next week
<v Speaker 6>on my opinion, but maybe a little bit wrong. Bye guys.
<v Speaker 4>Okay, Alex, good to hear from you. Thanks for calling
<v Speaker 4>in the Vince McMahon documentary. Again, I have not seen
<v Speaker 4>it in its entirety. What I will say is this,
<v Speaker 4>this is not the one and only documentary that's ever
<v Speaker 4>going to be done by Vince or about Vince, I
<v Speaker 4>should say, nor is it the last one I think
<v Speaker 4>Vince will participate in before he dies. I think that
<v Speaker 4>there will be another one, and maybe one that's more introspective,
<v Speaker 4>more on the specifics, more in the breaking news. I
<v Speaker 4>think there will be. Vince put a statement out on
<v Speaker 4>Twitter before this even came out our acts and essentially
<v Speaker 4>disagreed with a lot of how they portrayed him, and
<v Speaker 4>they just selectively cut things that he said, and you know,
<v Speaker 4>he made him out to be a monster in some cases,
<v Speaker 4>and it's you know, we don't have the full uncut footage,
<v Speaker 4>so we don't know how they framed Vince in this
<v Speaker 4>versus how we actually was portrayed in the uncut film.
<v Speaker 4>Maybe we would think of him differently. But some of
<v Speaker 4>the things that we did see, because that's all we
<v Speaker 4>can judge on, is him saying that Mark Callaway the
<v Speaker 4>Undertaker again. Sorry guys, spoiler, spoiler, Okay, you've been warned again.
<v Speaker 4>At WrestleMania thirty, when he faced brought lesser with a
<v Speaker 4>streak being broken, that we saw happen shocking moment as
<v Speaker 4>we all know that he doesn't see where or how
<v Speaker 4>the Undertaker was concussed. Mark Callaway, the Undertaker does say
<v Speaker 4>he was concussed, but Vince chalks it up to him
<v Speaker 4>being psychologically shocked by the fact that he is going
<v Speaker 4>to have to lose this match, and that's why he
<v Speaker 4>doesn't remember. That's why he had to go to the hospital.
<v Speaker 4>But there's a whole bunch of nonsense. You know, a
<v Speaker 4>concussion doesn't always have to be a super dramatic spear
<v Speaker 4>type of thing. You know that you see sometimes in
<v Speaker 4>the NFL. It can happen suddenly, quickly and under the radar.
<v Speaker 4>It's not a very a lot of times not a
<v Speaker 4>very dramatic event. It happens quickly, and it doesn't have
<v Speaker 4>to happen again, as I said, in a dramatic fashion,
<v Speaker 4>which is I think what happened with the Undertaker match.
<v Speaker 4>You can see it in his eyes, he's concussed. I'm
<v Speaker 4>not a CTE expert. I'm not a doctor, but I
<v Speaker 4>have two eyes in a brain, and I can tell
<v Speaker 4>when somebody is not there. Undertaker wasn't there. You think
<v Speaker 4>the Undertaker went to the hospital because he was in
<v Speaker 4>psychological shock. He collapsed backstage after the match, because he's
<v Speaker 4>in psychological shock. A guy that's been through absolutely everything
<v Speaker 4>in the wrestling industry, in this one thing of losing
<v Speaker 4>a match puts him in some kind of a comatose state.
<v Speaker 4>If that's what Vince truly believes, he's a dumbass, or
<v Speaker 4>he's lying or both. Also, the other thing I did
<v Speaker 4>notice with that whole deal was stone cold Steve Austin
<v Speaker 4>and him talking about how he doesn't really believe in CTE.
<v Speaker 4>He's not a CTE guy, meaning he doesn't believe in
<v Speaker 4>anything that CTE he has to offer. I love Steve,
<v Speaker 4>big fan, He's what got me into wrestling and still
<v Speaker 4>to me this day, the best of all time. I
<v Speaker 4>have to disagree with him on this. You know, there
<v Speaker 4>is a lot of science to back up CTE. A
<v Speaker 4>lot of studies have been done. CTE is just kind of,
<v Speaker 4>as they would say, settled science at this point. I mean,
<v Speaker 4>it's still evolving. There's still things we don't know about it.
<v Speaker 4>But for Steve Austin to say he's not a CTE guy,
<v Speaker 4>that's like saying, yeah, well, I'm not a cancer guy.
<v Speaker 4>I don't believe in cancer. Cancer is not real. Ct
<v Speaker 4>is pretty well documented. Don't tell that to Chris Newinski.
<v Speaker 4>He also appeared in the documentary so or Or Brett Favre.
<v Speaker 4>From that matter, a lot of guys in the NFL
<v Speaker 4>or professional sports, professional contact sports in general don't tell
<v Speaker 4>them that. So I really disagree with Steve on that point.
<v Speaker 4>You know that the CTE stuff like who's who's to gain?
<v Speaker 4>If CTE is BS, who exactly is gaining here? Who's
<v Speaker 4>who's the winner? If it's a bunch of bs, what's
<v Speaker 4>the motive?
<v Speaker 2>You know?
<v Speaker 4>So I I am on the opposite side, and there's
<v Speaker 4>a lot of stuff I disagree or agree with. Rather
<v Speaker 4>with what Stone Cold says and his views on things.
<v Speaker 4>I agree with almost everything he talks about. This one
<v Speaker 4>was weird, you know, and he's like, he's saying, well,
<v Speaker 4>if you you're getting a bunch of concussions, you're not
<v Speaker 4>you know, you're not doing it right, which is true.
<v Speaker 4>But concussions happen. If you're getting them consistently, then yeah,
<v Speaker 4>you don't know what the hell you're doing. But even
<v Speaker 4>professionals like Undertaker had got you know, there are times
<v Speaker 4>he's got been concussed. Even Stone Cold has been concussed.
<v Speaker 4>As he said the nineteen ninety seven incident with owen Hart,
<v Speaker 4>he got concussed there. He also got concussed at the
<v Speaker 4>nineteen ninety eight I'm slam at Madison Square Garden against
<v Speaker 4>the Undertaker the Highway to Hell. He got knocked out,
<v Speaker 4>So you know, those are just two off the top,
<v Speaker 4>on top of other ones that he may not even
<v Speaker 4>know he got concussied. Concussions aren't always the same. Not
<v Speaker 4>every concussion is I guess drawing the same. Not everyone
<v Speaker 4>has the same reactions to concussions. There are varying degrees
<v Speaker 4>of concussions. You can still even work through one. I
<v Speaker 4>mean sometimes you can. Sometimes you get knocked out, sometimes
<v Speaker 4>it's deadly, but you can work through some of the ones.
<v Speaker 6>You can.
<v Speaker 4>You can have one occur to you in a match
<v Speaker 4>and still compete, which is what the Undertaker did in
<v Speaker 4>the match with Bronck Lesser and WrestleMania thirty eleven years ago.
<v Speaker 4>That's what happened, and he continued to work, but it
<v Speaker 4>messed with his memory because he couldn't remember a lot
<v Speaker 4>of the match or any of it, as he said,
<v Speaker 4>And it wasn't psychological shock that Vince told him he
<v Speaker 4>was going to lose the match. That's nonsense.
<v Speaker 2>That's just a bunch.
<v Speaker 4>It's unblee. Uh So that part of it is just ridiculous,
<v Speaker 4>But all right, well I'm gonna wrap it up there.
