WWE Raw Review: Logan Paul vs Rey Mysterio, AJ Styles & CM Punk Appear, Jey Uso Chooses Gunther for WrestleMania

<v Speaker 1>This is WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre and you're listening to
<v Speaker 1>the WWE podcast show.
<v Speaker 2>The one that everybody wants me.
<v Speaker 3>God tell you I'll stand three sixteen, So just we.
<v Speaker 4>Your ass is my.
<v Speaker 1>Yn you can acknowledge me.
<v Speaker 2>Hey, guys, welcome to the WWE Podcast.
<v Speaker 4>Yes, it's Wednesday, February twelfth, twenty twenty five day late,
<v Speaker 4>hopefully not a dollar short with this review from an
<v Speaker 4>A Night Raw. I know him all happened nearly two
<v Speaker 4>days ago now, but I'm getting my head screwed back
<v Speaker 4>on straight with coming back from my vacation, so forgive
<v Speaker 4>me for this being a little bit late. We'll get
<v Speaker 4>through Raw here, maybe a bit of an abbreviated version,
<v Speaker 4>but we'll get through it. We'll be back on track
<v Speaker 4>this week with all the regular shows and then as
<v Speaker 4>we look towards Elimination Chamber just a couple of weeks away.
<v Speaker 4>Two weeks from this Saturday is Elimination Chamber from Toronto,
<v Speaker 4>so there's a lot to discuss here as we get
<v Speaker 4>through the next couple of weeks, which will be the
<v Speaker 4>final pl before WrestleMania, and then there's like an eight
<v Speaker 4>week gap. It it's just crazy. So we're gonna go
<v Speaker 4>through raw here in just a minute, but I want
<v Speaker 4>to give a shout out to our newest patrons, Reese
<v Speaker 4>or I think it's how you pronounce it, Reese L.
<v Speaker 4>Thank you for becoming a patron, and I think might
<v Speaker 4>I thought there was more, I guess not. All right, Well,
<v Speaker 4>there's there's one shot out for Reese who became a
<v Speaker 4>member of our NXT plus level, which means they get
<v Speaker 4>access to the after Dark show, which is exclusive to
<v Speaker 4>those on the NXT plus and above. They also get
<v Speaker 4>everything ad free and a Patreon or excuse me, our
<v Speaker 4>Discord server that's also exclusive to all patrons as well.
<v Speaker 4>So cool, let's job jive or dive right in to
<v Speaker 4>Monday Night Raw and let's start from the top. So
<v Speaker 4>we had jay Us so as always shown in the
<v Speaker 4>concourse because that's how he walks to the ring. Now
<v Speaker 4>all on the shield, I guess, but he comes to
<v Speaker 4>the crowd and Pat McAfee checked in on commentary and
<v Speaker 4>jay Us found a young fan and pumped his arms
<v Speaker 4>with him, and Jay hopped the ring side barricade slap
<v Speaker 4>fan hands with a broadcast team and then world everyweight
<v Speaker 4>Champion Gunther showed up O don't know where trip Jay
<v Speaker 4>on the broadcast table.
<v Speaker 2>He fought back.
<v Speaker 4>Gunther fought back to him and drilled him with a chop.
<v Speaker 4>Gunner then got Jay in the ring. Security showed up
<v Speaker 4>gun Through powerbombed Jane in the middle of the ring,
<v Speaker 4>and then he left and we had Jay essentially get
<v Speaker 4>trashed by Gunther. Jay said maybe he shouldn't say what
<v Speaker 4>he's about to say me and you at WrestleMania, Jay said,
<v Speaker 4>and then gun Through returned to the ring. Apron Security
<v Speaker 4>pulled gun Through to the floor and then Jay hit
<v Speaker 4>him with a suicide dive. So this to me was
<v Speaker 4>short but effective. We had Gunther come out and attacked
<v Speaker 4>the baby face from behind, and then we had Jay
<v Speaker 4>USO essentially say okay your mind at WrestleMania, which I
<v Speaker 4>think most of us thought was going to happen anyway.
<v Speaker 4>I didn't think there was anybody who was on the
<v Speaker 4>on board with Jay versus Cody. That doesn't make a
<v Speaker 4>whole lot of sense. But they had to tease it
<v Speaker 4>for at least a week with Jay going to smack down.
<v Speaker 4>But we had Jay choose gun the officially, so it's
<v Speaker 4>no more rumor, no more maybe TNA Championship. None of that, right,
<v Speaker 4>So Joe Hendry not an option, Cody Roads not an option.
<v Speaker 4>It's now Gunther and Jay at WrestleMania for the World
<v Speaker 4>Heavyweight Championship. You can pretty much bank on Night one.
<v Speaker 4>It's pretty much lock it up, throw it away. The
<v Speaker 4>key Night one main event Jay versus gun There for
<v Speaker 4>the World Heavyweight Championship, and Night two will be Cody
<v Speaker 4>versus whoever wins the elimination Chamber, and we'll see who
<v Speaker 4>that person is. Perhaps it's Drue, perhaps it's Punk, Perhaps
<v Speaker 4>it's Rollins, although I doubt Rollins given the fact that
<v Speaker 4>it's going to be Roman Reigns who likely screws Rollins
<v Speaker 4>in the chamber somehow. So there are some options here.
<v Speaker 4>We don't have the full list of those in the
<v Speaker 4>elimination chamber yet, but as expected, the winner of the
<v Speaker 4>Elimination Chamber will face Cody for the WWE Undisputed Championship
<v Speaker 4>at WrestleMania in the Night two main event. I mean,
<v Speaker 4>I don't think I'm giving away any state secrets here
<v Speaker 4>by saying what the Night one Night two main events
<v Speaker 4>are outside of some insane returns and you know, like
<v Speaker 4>the Rock or Austin, which aren't gonna happen, especially Austin
<v Speaker 4>or brock Lessner, which is almost a zero percent chance
<v Speaker 4>outside of some insane fantasy matchup. It's those two, which
<v Speaker 4>I would say a ninety nine percent chance for both
<v Speaker 4>main eventing Night one and Night two. I will still
<v Speaker 4>say Jay versus Gun through main eventing WrestleMania Night one.
<v Speaker 2>I just don't.
<v Speaker 4>I don't feel it, and it's not one of those
<v Speaker 4>second guests you know, fans where the night after, you know,
<v Speaker 4>Monday morning quarterbacking.
<v Speaker 2>That's not what I'm doing.
<v Speaker 4>I wasn't on board for Jay winning only because it
<v Speaker 4>didn't I know the fans were behind him, but not
<v Speaker 4>Just because the fans are behind him doesn't mean they
<v Speaker 4>have to make him the main event of WrestleMania. I
<v Speaker 4>don't dislike Jay. I think his character is solid. I
<v Speaker 4>don't know where people are thinking that he's good on
<v Speaker 4>the mic. I don't think Jay Uso is good on
<v Speaker 4>the mic. I can't understand his words half the time.
<v Speaker 4>I think he's okay, too good at times, but he's
<v Speaker 4>not made for a long form promo. Not that he
<v Speaker 4>needs to be, but he's not. I don't think He's
<v Speaker 4>good in the sense that he can cut a good
<v Speaker 4>wrestling promo. He's just good in short burst with his
<v Speaker 4>phrases and half understood sentences that to me, and he's effective.
<v Speaker 4>He's got a lot of energy. I'm not saying he
<v Speaker 4>doesn't deserve this, given the fact that he's been here
<v Speaker 4>for so long and that he hasn't really put the
<v Speaker 4>company under any fire doing anything crazy outside of wrestling,
<v Speaker 4>or you know, he's been here for how long multi time,
<v Speaker 4>we're a tag team champion and a continental champion. But
<v Speaker 4>I just I don't know it does I look at
<v Speaker 4>this and I go, there's no way this is a
<v Speaker 4>Wrestlemdiam Maine event. You know, if you had told me
<v Speaker 4>six months ago, I'd be like, eh, that's a main
<v Speaker 4>event of Raw, of which, by the way, it was
<v Speaker 4>okay at one point, and then you had a main
<v Speaker 4>event of a ple fine, okay, but you know, gut
<v Speaker 4>there's gonna win, and he did. And then it's just
<v Speaker 4>crazy to me that they're putting this back as the
<v Speaker 4>WrestleMania Maine event. We've already seen this, and it's not
<v Speaker 4>like we have already seen this, you know, all a
<v Speaker 4>year ago that would feel kind of fresh. It was
<v Speaker 4>like two months ago, and now we're supposed to get
<v Speaker 4>excited about a match again that we've seen. This is
<v Speaker 4>a crazy choice for me. That's why I didn't pick Jayuso.
<v Speaker 4>Not because he doesn't have fan support, not because I
<v Speaker 4>don't think he has a good character, not because even
<v Speaker 4>his promos are okay to good at times, just that
<v Speaker 4>it doesn't seem to make sense. I mean outside of
<v Speaker 4>the idea that, okay, he fits the bill, and he does,
<v Speaker 4>but there's an intangible that isn't there. It's maybe star power,
<v Speaker 4>I'm not sure. It just doesn't feel like your typical
<v Speaker 4>WrestleMania main event where they've been building to this match
<v Speaker 4>and Jay's been on his path, Gouther's been on his path,
<v Speaker 4>Gother's been unstoppable for a year. No, it's a little
<v Speaker 4>it's kind of weird. Now their match isn't for another
<v Speaker 4>my god, two months, like nine weeks from now, ten
<v Speaker 4>weeks from now until WrestleMania. Okay, there's a lot of
<v Speaker 4>television to go between now and then, and maybe they'll
<v Speaker 4>get me more excited, But for a match I just
<v Speaker 4>saw where Gunther beat him handily, I don't know.
<v Speaker 2>I'm not feeling it.
<v Speaker 4>I'm not like, I'll watch it and I'll I mean,
<v Speaker 4>I don't want Gunher to lose, though. I think Gunther's
<v Speaker 4>got more in him his run if it gets if
<v Speaker 4>he loses to Jay, Gunther's run to me will feel incomplete.
<v Speaker 4>It'll feel like there's way more than Gunther could have done.
<v Speaker 4>Gunther has been I mean, when's last time Guntherer even
<v Speaker 4>had a match on Raw? Gunthertern never has matches on Raw.
<v Speaker 4>He's just he'll show up, he'll cut a promo, he'll
<v Speaker 4>attack somebody, or I mean, it just feels like Gunther's
<v Speaker 4>a semi absent champion in a way. Now Roman Reigns
<v Speaker 4>redefined what it meant to be an absentee champion, But
<v Speaker 4>with Gunther, it just feels like he hasn't gotten fully
<v Speaker 4>the run that he deserves before he decides to hand
<v Speaker 4>it to Jay and let him run with the ball.
<v Speaker 4>So it sounds like I'm hit trashing on Jay. Not Okay,
<v Speaker 4>this isn't me and Cody Rhodes. Okay, this is not
<v Speaker 4>a character I despise, But I don't know that's how
<v Speaker 4>I feel. If you guys disagree with me, cool, I
<v Speaker 4>just in your Heart of Hearts. You know that I'm
<v Speaker 4>right that this doesn't look like a WrestleMania main event,
<v Speaker 4>and we've just seen the match, so it takes a
<v Speaker 4>lot of the steam out of it. We just saw
<v Speaker 4>this where the baby Face lost clean, so okay, fine,
<v Speaker 4>even if he overcomes Gunther, it's not that exciting. I'm sorry,
<v Speaker 4>it's not that exciting, and you know they're probably gonna
<v Speaker 4>do it. It just it feels like, oh, we went
<v Speaker 4>to it, and guess what we're gonna go back to
<v Speaker 4>in a couple of months.
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. All right, let's go on.
<v Speaker 4>So we have the official again wrestle Media made events here,
<v Speaker 4>So then we got backstage rear Ripley interviewed by Kathy Kelly.
<v Speaker 4>Ripley said she would deal with Live Morgan she makes
<v Speaker 4>it to WrestleMania, and then grumbled about Charlotte Flair making
<v Speaker 4>everyone wait for her Wrestlemanian decision and Live In Raquel
<v Speaker 4>made their entrance here to face eo and Dakota Kai,
<v Speaker 4>and this match ended up being fifteen minutes crazy. I
<v Speaker 4>thought it was a really good match. It ended with
<v Speaker 4>Eoski and Dakota Kai beating liv Morgan in Raquel Rodriguez,
<v Speaker 4>and the finish was Kai hitting her big corner kick
<v Speaker 4>on Rodriguez. Morgan put Kai down with a code breaker,
<v Speaker 4>Sky rolled up Morgan for a two count live. Morgan
<v Speaker 4>came back with the roll up of her own, but
<v Speaker 4>Sky rolled through and double stomped her, and Sky went
<v Speaker 4>up top to hit the over the Moon Salt and
<v Speaker 4>got the victory.
<v Speaker 2>So a good match.
<v Speaker 4>This I think is good for both EO Sky and
<v Speaker 4>Dakota Kai, who needs some momentum here. Eoski, who many
<v Speaker 4>picked to even win the women's were all rumble, Dakota Kai,
<v Speaker 4>who has been largely absent and invisible since program with
<v Speaker 4>Bailey last year, and this was fine.
<v Speaker 2>If they are going to.
<v Speaker 4>Be in contention for the women's Tag Team Championships, then
<v Speaker 4>so be it. I mean, once again, you notice the
<v Speaker 4>Women's Tag Team Championships have been essentially forgotten along with
<v Speaker 4>the US champion shins kin A Kamura. I just saw
<v Speaker 4>a stat that shinsky A Kamura hasn't defended his United
<v Speaker 4>States Championship in seventy three days other than a dark match.
<v Speaker 4>That was a dark match seventy three days. What is
<v Speaker 4>it with them putting the belt on shinsk and then
<v Speaker 4>they put him, you know, essentially underground and hide him.
<v Speaker 4>They did hit that with him when he was Intercontinental
<v Speaker 4>champion a couple of years ago, and they're doing again
<v Speaker 4>with him as the United States champion. He just gets
<v Speaker 4>a belt. He actually altered his character to be a
<v Speaker 4>little darker. His music's a little altered as well. He
<v Speaker 4>comes back, he assaults La Knight, we're off to the races,
<v Speaker 4>becomes us champion, and then they're like, okay, well we'll
<v Speaker 4>see you later. How does that work? How does La
<v Speaker 4>Knight get more TV time then the guy that just
<v Speaker 4>took the belt from him. I'm not against Elle Knight
<v Speaker 4>at all. I enjoy the hell out of Ella Knight's character,
<v Speaker 4>but my god, shinzkt Huckamburro.
<v Speaker 2>Just goes away.
<v Speaker 4>I'm not understanding a talent like this who is aging
<v Speaker 4>like we all are, and has more days behind him
<v Speaker 4>than in front of him. How do we just do
<v Speaker 4>this every time Shin's gay becomes champion. It was a
<v Speaker 4>way to just get La Knight, get the belt off
<v Speaker 4>of Ella Knight, but have no real plans for the
<v Speaker 4>person that's taking it.
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.
<v Speaker 4>It's a pattern with Shin's key and I'm not I'm
<v Speaker 4>not a fan really, all right, So what do we
<v Speaker 4>have next? We have shots of Bailey and Lyra and
<v Speaker 4>Cole hyped up the premiere of WWE on Sunday for
<v Speaker 4>A and E. And oh, by the way, Gunther throwing
<v Speaker 4>the T shirt at the kid. If you haven't seen that,
<v Speaker 4>I mean, my god, go see it. Gunther threw his
<v Speaker 4>T shirt and we had Pat McAfee duck perfectly and
<v Speaker 4>it had hit a kid behind him.
<v Speaker 2>Oh my gosh.
<v Speaker 4>All right, so we had George Kittle in the crowd
<v Speaker 4>from the San Francisco forty nine ers tight end, and
<v Speaker 4>then we had Lyra Valkyria, the Women's at ore candinental
<v Speaker 4>champion versus Bailey. This is for an elimination chamber qualifier.
<v Speaker 4>This match went twelve minutes and fifteen seconds with Bailey winning.
<v Speaker 4>Now here's the finish. Lyra gets up to the ropes.
<v Speaker 4>She gets cut off by Bailey, who had an avalanche.
<v Speaker 4>Bailey to belly blocked. Valkyria picked up a couple of
<v Speaker 4>near falls on Bailey, who then tossed Valkyria aggressively into
<v Speaker 4>the ropes. Belly went for the rose plant and Valkyria
<v Speaker 4>avoided it and tried to roll Bailey into a but
<v Speaker 4>Bailey hooked Valkyria on the mat and got the free count.
<v Speaker 4>So this was I mean, I like the fact that
<v Speaker 4>they're given the women longer matches. Like I said, we
<v Speaker 4>just had a fifteen minute women's match, now a twelve
<v Speaker 4>minute women's match. This is good if you want women
<v Speaker 4>to get more minutes, and I'm a fan of that
<v Speaker 4>because I don't think that they often get enough minutes,
<v Speaker 4>especially for the fact that they now have two additional
<v Speaker 4>championships that they're trying to create some value for some
<v Speaker 4>equity in and this match was. While the minutes were good,
<v Speaker 4>it was a bit clunky, especially the finish with their
<v Speaker 4>roll ups kind of weird, but it was okay, and
<v Speaker 4>Bailey getting the victory is a bit surprising given the
<v Speaker 4>fact that Lyra just won the Intercontinental Championship once again.
<v Speaker 4>Same here with the Women's ice Belt. They have her
<v Speaker 4>become champion and then it's like, okay, she's in an
<v Speaker 4>elimination chamber of qualifier. She loses, which is on a
<v Speaker 4>weird Now it's weird in the sense that she just
<v Speaker 4>won the belt and she's now losing matches, and you
<v Speaker 4>want to prop up your IC champion.
<v Speaker 2>But two things.
<v Speaker 4>One you lost to Bailey and there's no shame in that.
<v Speaker 4>Two her in the elimination chamber, meaning Lyra in the
<v Speaker 4>elimination chamber match doesn't make a ton of sense because
<v Speaker 4>she'll be then chasing a belt that she doesn't have
<v Speaker 4>and she's already got one and they're not going to
<v Speaker 4>make her a double champion. So she's automatically, even if
<v Speaker 4>she's in the elimination chamber match, just completely disregarded as
<v Speaker 4>a possible winner, I mean zero percent, because she's already
<v Speaker 4>Intercontinental champion. So that's the couple of reasons. And again
<v Speaker 4>losing to Bailey is there's no shame in that. So
<v Speaker 4>well then we have Penta. He said his Sarah Miado.
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what that.
<v Speaker 4>Oh that means no fear, that's what that means. Yes,
<v Speaker 4>I'm just learning that now as we speak. He spoke
<v Speaker 4>how he has no fear of cowards like Ludwig Kaiser
<v Speaker 4>and Pete Done, who attacked him from behind. Kaiser was
<v Speaker 4>then interviewed backstage by Jackie Redmond and Kaiser spoke briefly
<v Speaker 4>about Penta, but Pete Dunn interrupted him, and Dunn said
<v Speaker 4>he wasn't trying to help Kaiser last week and never
<v Speaker 4>helped someone like him. Kaiser asked if Dunn thought he
<v Speaker 4>needed his help, and Dunn spoke about facing Penta next week.
<v Speaker 4>Kaiser said Penta is all his and done, told Kaiser
<v Speaker 4>to stay out of his business business and walked away.
<v Speaker 4>Kaiser smirked, turned in locked eyes with AJ Styles, who
<v Speaker 4>briefly with briefly while Cole and Styles appeared after the break.
<v Speaker 4>All right, so are we gonna have Ages Styles and Kaiser? Fine,
<v Speaker 4>But the way Kaiser's been going, unfortunately, he's just gonna lose.
<v Speaker 4>Kaiser was on a roll for a small amount of time,
<v Speaker 4>for literally a few weeks, and you got some hope,
<v Speaker 4>at least I hope that they did more with him,
<v Speaker 4>and he's just been losing and losing and losing and losing.
<v Speaker 4>So Butt's go to see AJ Styles and he has
<v Speaker 4>a promo here. He said he had deja vu. He
<v Speaker 4>said four months earlier, he came in the building with
<v Speaker 4>a smile on his face because this was my stomping grounds.
<v Speaker 4>He said it was going to get his career back
<v Speaker 4>on track. But then he suffered an injury, and Styles
<v Speaker 4>said he thought his career was over when he suffered
<v Speaker 4>the injury, but he realized he has gas left in
<v Speaker 4>the tank and something left to prove. He said it
<v Speaker 4>was tough to get back, but so is anything that's
<v Speaker 4>worth doing, and he said he has a long to
<v Speaker 4>do list and looked at the WrestleMania sign. Dom and
<v Speaker 4>Carlito come out, and Dom spoke as they walked to
<v Speaker 4>the ring, and he was booed as always, and once
<v Speaker 4>in the ring, Dom mentioned something about how things have changed,
<v Speaker 4>and yeah, he said that basically the Judgment Day runs raw,
<v Speaker 4>which is of course, is just hilarious at this point
<v Speaker 4>given they have really fallen in terms of focus of raw,
<v Speaker 4>like the focal point of raw, and Styles told Dom
<v Speaker 4>He'll always be Raymisterio's punk ass kid. Styles then blocked
<v Speaker 4>a punch from Dom and hit a paylot kick on Carlito.
<v Speaker 4>He got the better of Styles for the minute, and
<v Speaker 4>then he Styles fought back beat up Carlito hit him
<v Speaker 4>with a phenomenal forearm as Dom escaped the ring. So
<v Speaker 4>we're building, I guess to an AJ Styles versus Kaiser
<v Speaker 4>and or AJ Styles versus Dominicant Mysterio program.
<v Speaker 2>Which would be fun.
<v Speaker 4>I mean, given the fact that Dom is unfortunately a
<v Speaker 4>heel that always gets beat all the time, we have
<v Speaker 4>aj Styles in there to work with him. If they're
<v Speaker 4>going to have a one on one match over the
<v Speaker 4>next month or so, fine, I think that's that's a
<v Speaker 4>good idea be given given the fact that people may
<v Speaker 4>hate his character, Dom that is, but he is damn
<v Speaker 4>good in the ring. And I say this wholeheartedly. Dominic
<v Speaker 4>Masterio's World champion would be epic dominicant. You know what
<v Speaker 4>Dom should do. Win the money in the bank. That's
<v Speaker 4>how Dom's gonna win a championship. That's the only way
<v Speaker 4>he's gonna win a championship is simply by winning money
<v Speaker 4>in the bank. That's what I would do with Dom.
<v Speaker 4>He is the perfect candidate to win money in the bank.
<v Speaker 4>So that's my vote this year. And then, of course,
<v Speaker 4>if you have jay Uso as world Champion and ray
<v Speaker 4>Masterio is still on Raw, are dom Asterial still on Raw?
<v Speaker 4>You're gonna have jay us So potentially get cashed in
<v Speaker 4>on later in the year by Dom.
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Thought here you heard it here first? Okay.
<v Speaker 4>We then have Jackie Redman interview Seth. He spoke about
<v Speaker 4>his Elimination Chamber qualifier with Finn and well, that'll take
<v Speaker 4>place next week. Rowlins played up winning the Elimination Chamber
<v Speaker 4>match and then challenging Cody Roads at WrestleMania. Ain't gonna happen,
<v Speaker 4>but we all know you're on a clinsion course with Roman,
<v Speaker 4>which I love. I just don't want Punk involved, as
<v Speaker 4>you heard from me two days ago. Finn then showed
<v Speaker 4>up and spoke about the downfall of Rollins. He said
<v Speaker 4>everyone saw Rollins lose to Punk on Netflix the Netflix debut,
<v Speaker 4>and then lose his mind at the rumble Baller said,
<v Speaker 4>Lucky for him, the only thing standing between excuse me,
<v Speaker 4>the Elimination Chamber and him is the guy falling apart.
<v Speaker 4>Rollin said, he and Balor go back a long way,
<v Speaker 4>and they put on a show wherever they meet.
<v Speaker 2>I hate that line. I hate that.
<v Speaker 4>I don't want I really don't want fan or wrestlers
<v Speaker 4>ever talking about putting on a show or stealing the show,
<v Speaker 4>as Dovsigo did for twenty years. The reason is that's
<v Speaker 4>a byproduct of your work rate, and the fans will
<v Speaker 4>decide that. I don't want you telling me how good
<v Speaker 4>your match is going to be. Your primary goal is
<v Speaker 4>to win. If you have a great match as a
<v Speaker 4>byproduct of that, then cool. But that's something that should
<v Speaker 4>never be talked about. It's like an actor in the
<v Speaker 4>middle of the movie saying, you know, aren't we doing
<v Speaker 4>a great job?
<v Speaker 2>Here?
<v Speaker 4>Are we doing a great job acting? I know, aren't
<v Speaker 4>I making you believe? No, like it's a byproduct of
<v Speaker 4>what you just should be doing anyway, So I hate that.
<v Speaker 2>I and same with.
<v Speaker 4>Any of the women's division competitors who are always saying
<v Speaker 4>we want to make history. Do history, make history the
<v Speaker 4>house down.
<v Speaker 2>Stop it. No.
<v Speaker 4>That tells me if you're trying to put on a
<v Speaker 4>good show, you're not trying to win. Primate winning is secondary.
<v Speaker 4>I know that it's is totally over the heads of
<v Speaker 4>most of the wrestlers because I'm smarter than all of them.
<v Speaker 4>But I I mean that with all sincerity, that I
<v Speaker 4>not that I'm smarter, but that I just they don't
<v Speaker 4>see the take me out of the moment line that
<v Speaker 4>that always produces. Okay, anyway, but ROY mean, I love Rollins,
<v Speaker 4>I love balor nothing against those guys. It's just the
<v Speaker 4>line that I hear constantly, and it's just you shouldn't
<v Speaker 4>be saying that. So anyway, Balor said, lucky for him.
<v Speaker 2>I said that.
<v Speaker 4>We have Rollin saying that Balor is standing in his
<v Speaker 4>way now, but.
<v Speaker 2>He won't be standing after next week.
<v Speaker 4>Logan Paul was shown backstage. Red Mysterio was shown warming
<v Speaker 4>up in his room for their match later in the
<v Speaker 4>night and qualifier that is. And then we have general
<v Speaker 4>manager Adam Pierce giving AJ Styles a match with Dominic
<v Speaker 4>that's going to be hell next week. Adam Pierce left,
<v Speaker 4>and then a cowboy hat wearing bron Breaker enters and
<v Speaker 4>went face to face with Styles and he said, I'll
<v Speaker 4>see around. So AJ Styles now has three potential opponents
<v Speaker 4>lined up, one of them for sure next week with Dom,
<v Speaker 4>but we have Kaiser Dom and bron Breaker who could
<v Speaker 4>potentially be working with AJ. I love all of this.
<v Speaker 4>I love all of it. All of these are fresh matchups.
<v Speaker 4>All of these are going to be really good to great.
<v Speaker 4>Given you know that AJ Styles is involved. Say with
<v Speaker 4>bron Breaker, right, I enjoy the hell out of his intensity.
<v Speaker 4>So see, as a fan, we can talk about how
<v Speaker 4>great the matches are going to be. As a wrestler.
<v Speaker 4>You should be focused on e fing winning and that's
<v Speaker 4>what you talk about, what winning means and what losing
<v Speaker 4>will mean. Okay, so we have the war Raiders Eric
<v Speaker 4>Ivar versus Julius Creed and Brutus Creeb with Ivan Isle
<v Speaker 4>for the war Old tag team titles. This match went
<v Speaker 4>twelve minutes and twenty five seconds with the war Raiders winning.
<v Speaker 4>And the way that they won though, is the war
<v Speaker 4>Raiders setting up for the war Machine finish on Brutus.
<v Speaker 4>But Julius hit Ivar with one of the tag team
<v Speaker 4>titles and was disqualified. I love that there's not enough
<v Speaker 4>belt shots anymore. I know that the head shots have
<v Speaker 4>been banned, and if there's no safe way to do it,
<v Speaker 4>then they should be. But boy, I wish there was
<v Speaker 4>a safe way to do head shots. I know it's
<v Speaker 4>impossible unless it's like completely you know, it's like aluminum foil, right,
<v Speaker 4>But I do miss belt shots to the head, so
<v Speaker 4>that's a nice thing. We don't see that as much
<v Speaker 4>as we should sometimes. But having Julius hit Ivar with
<v Speaker 4>the tag team title belt was a good finish. This
<v Speaker 4>is a dequ finish. I'm not going to complain about
<v Speaker 4>dequ finishes over the years, I think been overused. You've
<v Speaker 4>heard me talk about on the show and other shows.
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure you listen to. DQ finishes are often a
<v Speaker 4>crutch for not committing to a storyline, so you have
<v Speaker 4>a DQ finish as kind of a crutch. But in
<v Speaker 4>this case it makes sense because it sets up a rematch.
<v Speaker 4>They have a claim to get a rematch, and they
<v Speaker 4>work really well together, and quite frankly, there's not a
<v Speaker 4>lot of teams in the men's division as tag teams,
<v Speaker 4>same with the women that are really in contention or
<v Speaker 4>makes sense to challenge for the world tag team titles
<v Speaker 4>on Raw. All right backstage, Finn enters the clubhouse where
<v Speaker 4>live Dom and Carloto and everybody else is there. Balor
<v Speaker 4>said they should listen to him. Dom spoke about how
<v Speaker 4>things are looking up, and Dom and Balor bickered together,
<v Speaker 4>and Dom mentioned the idea of introducing a new member.
<v Speaker 4>They've been shorthanded since Jad got hurt, and Balor blamed
<v Speaker 4>Dom for McDonald's injury. Morgan defended Dom. Balor spoke about
<v Speaker 4>winning the Illumination Chamber and becoming World Champion of WrestleMania.
<v Speaker 4>Boy First of all, Live, Morgan has an ugly cut
<v Speaker 4>above her eye. I mean, just that was she put
<v Speaker 4>pictures of it on Instagram. Brutal, not fake real, that
<v Speaker 4>was a yikes. I mean, she got stitched up and
<v Speaker 4>she's fine, but it's a nice, brutal little cut on Live.
<v Speaker 2>All right.
<v Speaker 4>Backstage, Rhea approached EO and Dakota and said she doesn't
<v Speaker 4>owe Sky anything. She says she wasn't giving Sky a
<v Speaker 4>title shot because she had to. She was giving her
<v Speaker 4>a shot because she wants to. And Ripley said the
<v Speaker 4>match will be held on Raw after the Chamber, and
<v Speaker 4>Sky said she can't wait. Okay, that tells me there's
<v Speaker 4>no women's championship match, which is fine. At the Chamber,
<v Speaker 4>it makes sense. There's probably gonna be four matches, just
<v Speaker 4>like at the Rumble. The women will open the show
<v Speaker 4>with their Chamber two matches in between, and then the
<v Speaker 4>men's Chamber match will close the show, likely with the
<v Speaker 4>returning Roman Reigns to screw South rollins. All right, we
<v Speaker 4>then have Punk stand in the ring, and he said
<v Speaker 4>two weeks ago he would have spoken with great confidence
<v Speaker 4>about winning the Rumble. He said that he did, in
<v Speaker 4>fact speak with confidence about winning the Rumble, but sometimes
<v Speaker 4>he talks too much. He's disappointed he didn't win, but
<v Speaker 4>he's not disappointed that Jay one. He spoke about the
<v Speaker 4>elimination Chamber being his path to the championship match with
<v Speaker 4>Cody and Punk brought up John Cena, stating he would
<v Speaker 4>enter the chamber rather than qualify for the match. He
<v Speaker 4>said he's no longer upset because Sina deserves to call
<v Speaker 4>his shot, but at some point he's going to cross
<v Speaker 4>paths with him during the chamber and said he will
<v Speaker 4>beat the crap out of him and added he's coming
<v Speaker 4>for Cody. He spoke about facing Drew in the chamber
<v Speaker 4>and said he doesn't like to name drop Seth Rollins,
<v Speaker 4>but he's also in the match. He said it doesn't
<v Speaker 4>matter who else is in there, He's going to win.
<v Speaker 4>And he said wrestleming he belongs to him. But then
<v Speaker 4>we get Logan Paul come out and he said he
<v Speaker 4>can see what they call him Punk and can think
<v Speaker 4>of a few other names for him. And we have
<v Speaker 4>Paul question why fans cheer Punk and boo him, and
<v Speaker 4>Punk recalled eliminating, eliminating, I'm sorry, Paul recalled eliminating Punk
<v Speaker 4>from the Rumble and said that that was the greatest
<v Speaker 4>fifteen minutes of fame in Punk's career, and Paul said
<v Speaker 4>he has Punk's number. He said, it's time for Raymisterials
<v Speaker 4>fifteen minutes of fame. It ended with Punk saying that
<v Speaker 4>Paul pulled the number tonight and it's sixty one nine.
<v Speaker 4>And Punk said, if Paul is lucky enough to get
<v Speaker 4>by Ray, he'll see him in Toronto and put him
<v Speaker 4>to sleep. Ray Asterio came out and that's where we
<v Speaker 4>get the fourth and final match, the main event here
<v Speaker 4>Logan Paul versus Ramisterio and in and in n elimination
<v Speaker 4>Chamber qualifying match. By the way, the men that are
<v Speaker 4>in the Mensuel Rumble match right now as a recap.
<v Speaker 4>I had to just confirm it myself, John Cena see
<v Speaker 4>him Punk, Logan Paul Drew McIntyre two more to go,
<v Speaker 4>and I love how they tease Punk and Cody a
<v Speaker 4>few weeks ago on Raw. That would be a hell
<v Speaker 4>of a matchup and hell of a really the match
<v Speaker 4>I don't think would be as good as the promos,
<v Speaker 4>but still really good. Logan, Paul has no chance of
<v Speaker 4>winning this he's here to just put on a show.
<v Speaker 4>I think really that so far, out of the four
<v Speaker 4>of the six who have been announced, John Cena and
<v Speaker 4>Drew McIntyre I think have the most realistic opportunities.
<v Speaker 2>Again, we don't know who the other two.
<v Speaker 4>For sure are, but with Sena and Drew, those two
<v Speaker 4>are realistic. But if John Cena is here to just
<v Speaker 4>put everyone over, which which is what it seems like
<v Speaker 4>he unfortunately is here to do, then Drew seems the
<v Speaker 4>most likely to me, and I think he should win.
<v Speaker 4>If it's Drew and Cody Roads at WrestleMania, can I
<v Speaker 4>sign up now? Drew and Cody Row would be awesome.
<v Speaker 4>I mean, he got transferred to RAW. I'm sorry, Trump's
<v Speaker 4>moratus SmackDown, and his first statement was to declare he
<v Speaker 4>was here to challenge Cody and he's here to come
<v Speaker 4>for the belt. That would be awesome. On top of
<v Speaker 4>the fact, again you tease Punk and Cody on RAW
<v Speaker 4>several weeks ago with their epic promo together. I mean,
<v Speaker 4>there's just so much to do. I don't think Sena
<v Speaker 4>and Cody is a good place because Cena versus Cody.
<v Speaker 2>Would be a bit of.
<v Speaker 4>A challenge for the fans, and if they don't want
<v Speaker 4>to turn Cody, and they they have no interest ever
<v Speaker 4>in turning Cody Heel, then the fans would be challenged
<v Speaker 4>as to who should win this because you have a
<v Speaker 4>legend like John Cena, who's in the final, you know,
<v Speaker 4>waning days of his career, challenging your guy that everyone
<v Speaker 4>wanted last year as champion. I don't think it's going
<v Speaker 4>to be John Cena out of these four, I think
<v Speaker 4>the one right now then what's most likely is Drew
<v Speaker 4>mctyre to win this, I do because you're gonna have
<v Speaker 4>maybe Roland Rains come in Seth Rollins will probably be
<v Speaker 4>the other competitor after he beats Finn, and then the
<v Speaker 4>last one. I don't know yet for sure, but to me,
<v Speaker 4>Drew Drew Drew versus Cody, because Drew has been on
<v Speaker 4>a damn role for a year now. All right, let's
<v Speaker 4>continue with raw here then we'll get some final thoughts,
<v Speaker 4>wrap up thoughts. So this match was seventeen minutes and
<v Speaker 4>it ended with Logan Paul winning, and the way it
<v Speaker 4>was ended was Paul punching Ray with his I guess
<v Speaker 4>uh iron supported wrist and then hit him with a
<v Speaker 4>pulverizer DDT. So Logan Paul winning here made the right
<v Speaker 4>It was the right call, and the match was I
<v Speaker 4>think it was good. I know a lot of people
<v Speaker 4>had some criticisms about the match, but overall, I think
<v Speaker 4>it was really good. I mean, when's the last time
<v Speaker 4>Logan Paul made invented raw? I know he's made invented
<v Speaker 4>pls before, but Logan Paul being inserted here. He's had
<v Speaker 4>what a dozen matches on TV that we've seen, and
<v Speaker 4>every single time he's delivered more often than not. This
<v Speaker 4>to me is Logan Paul if he's truly in this
<v Speaker 4>for the full time. Now and in this long term,
<v Speaker 4>Logan Paul is a world champion in the next twelve months,
<v Speaker 4>or at least, well, he's already been US champion. Maybe
<v Speaker 4>he'd become intercontinental, but I could see Logan Paul winning
<v Speaker 4>a world title in the next twelve months. I would
<v Speaker 4>even say, dare I say he's a contender to win
<v Speaker 4>the twenty twenty six World Rumble. At least he's in
<v Speaker 4>the conversation. I mean this year he was, he was
<v Speaker 4>in the final. Few made sense. He's a heel, So
<v Speaker 4>I like this. I know a lot of people don't
<v Speaker 4>like Logan pol on personal level. Yeah, I understand all
<v Speaker 4>the personal things, and seemingly what kind of person he
<v Speaker 4>is doesn't.
<v Speaker 2>Seem to be great.
<v Speaker 4>But if he's dedicating himself to this, the sport that
<v Speaker 4>we all love, and he's delivering and taking it seriously,
<v Speaker 4>we have to respect that. You don't have to respec
<v Speaker 4>him on a personal level. That's totally different. You don't
<v Speaker 4>have to understand or respect or like everything he's done
<v Speaker 4>in his personal life.
<v Speaker 2>I certainly don't.
<v Speaker 4>But when he comes to just looking at this through
<v Speaker 4>a professional lens, what Logan Paul has brought thus far,
<v Speaker 4>you have to respect. You don't have a choice. Yes,
<v Speaker 4>he may be just slingshotted into the main event, and
<v Speaker 4>that's all true well, with seemingly no way that he's
<v Speaker 4>really earned it yet. But if he's delivering and he's
<v Speaker 4>catching on this quick, and every match he's had has
<v Speaker 4>been incredibly good, more than he ever deserves to be
<v Speaker 4>at this point, then we have to let it be.
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure there are a lot of guys backstage that
<v Speaker 4>are extremely in real life resentful of Logan Paul and
<v Speaker 4>his position because of the fact that he's been here
<v Speaker 4>for five seconds and all of a sudden, he's doing
<v Speaker 4>all these things, and he's being put in main events,
<v Speaker 4>in title matches, and he hasn't won a world title yet,
<v Speaker 4>but he's been US Champion, and he's been US Champion.
<v Speaker 4>Him being US Champion is more than a lot of
<v Speaker 4>guys will accomplish in their careers in terms of accolades,
<v Speaker 4>right in terms of things you put on your resume,
<v Speaker 4>which is incredible. I'd be resentful backstage if I was
<v Speaker 4>here for ten, twelve, fifteen years and I'm thinking I
<v Speaker 4>haven't got my damn shot. But this YouTube star comes
<v Speaker 4>in and thinks he's just going to main event. It's like, well,
<v Speaker 4>he's delivering, are you? You have to go with what
<v Speaker 4>the fans react to with what is here? Comes the trope?
<v Speaker 4>Best for business you do and Logan Paul especially, he delivering,
<v Speaker 4>which to me is the most important, and he's taking
<v Speaker 4>it seriously and he's not injuring anybody, and he's improving
<v Speaker 4>week to week on his promos. But he also has
<v Speaker 4>a massive YouTube following and that can't be understated. WWE
<v Speaker 4>loves to bring in people who have a ton of
<v Speaker 4>crossover potential, crossover audience, and Logan Paul's checks that box.
<v Speaker 4>I mean, look what they did with I Show Speed
<v Speaker 4>got like what one hundred million followers on YouTube or whatever.
<v Speaker 4>I see why they brought him in despite the fact
<v Speaker 4>he has no business being in there. And I love
<v Speaker 4>that bron Breakers split him in half, but that you
<v Speaker 4>can't discount that today. And I while I definitely get
<v Speaker 4>the resentment that a lot of fans and especially talent
<v Speaker 4>backstage probably have for him, you have to you can't
<v Speaker 4>love it, or you don't have to love it, but
<v Speaker 4>you have to understand it.
<v Speaker 2>It's business man.
<v Speaker 4>So Logan Paul's in, you can pretty much paint Seth
<v Speaker 4>Rollins in as the fifth member and then the final
<v Speaker 4>we don't know for sure who that could be.
<v Speaker 2>We'll have to find out. Maybe it is Roman Reigns.
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, Maybe the Roman is able to compete
<v Speaker 4>for the chamber somehow he qualifies or I don't know,
<v Speaker 4>but Seth Rawlins in there is number five, who again
<v Speaker 4>I don't think has a chance. But these are right
<v Speaker 4>now five out of six we can pretty much say
<v Speaker 4>we know because there's no way Finn Balor is going
<v Speaker 4>to beat Rawlins. So the other thing I want to
<v Speaker 4>mention quickly because I didn't get to talk about it
<v Speaker 4>on my mailbag. Is the fact that we have seth rawlins.
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry. La Knight.
<v Speaker 1>L A.
<v Speaker 4>Knight on SmackDown talked about how he wants to take
<v Speaker 4>a minute and talk about how, oh, you know, it's
<v Speaker 4>okay for men to cry, and it's so I don't
<v Speaker 4>know what proposition that or propagated that.
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.
<v Speaker 4>Maybe he knows someone in his life that maybe committed
<v Speaker 4>suicide and that men hold in their emotions because society
<v Speaker 4>says we should, and that we need to be stern
<v Speaker 4>and emotionless and absorb all these things. I you know,
<v Speaker 4>part of me wants to barf ait this only not
<v Speaker 4>not because I don't necessarily agree with it's principle that
<v Speaker 4>men can't show emotion. And I'm gonna try to stay
<v Speaker 4>on task here talking about wrestling. But since Elly Knight
<v Speaker 4>literally not just brought it up in some post interview
<v Speaker 4>or some podcast, he brought it up on air wallin
<v Speaker 4>character on SmackDown, it kind of gives me a platform
<v Speaker 4>to talk about it. Maybe I'm missing the origin of
<v Speaker 4>why he said this. I'm assuming it's because he knew
<v Speaker 4>someone that committed suicide or through association he knew somebody
<v Speaker 4>who knew somebody.
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, but.
<v Speaker 4>I'm not sure what this was. That he wants to
<v Speaker 4>be a force of good for change, which is all fine.
<v Speaker 4>And again I don't disagree with this message on principle
<v Speaker 4>that it's wrong.
<v Speaker 2>I don't.
<v Speaker 4>I just I don't need to hear this on air.
<v Speaker 4>I don't need to hear it in a I don't
<v Speaker 4>need to hear it on And this is my personal opinion. Now,
<v Speaker 4>if if anyone was to hear this and they were
<v Speaker 4>on the verge of, you know, harming themselves, and this
<v Speaker 4>saved their lives, well I don't I mean, that's great
<v Speaker 4>and I would be fine with it. I'm not saying
<v Speaker 4>that this message shouldn't have been said if it even
<v Speaker 4>saved one life, But did it I don't know, I mean,
<v Speaker 4>or was it him just trying to be a really
<v Speaker 4>good guy. I'm not sure, but it was. It was
<v Speaker 4>kind of out of place. It's like, hold on, I'm
<v Speaker 4>in character. Let me let me cut my character. I'm
<v Speaker 4>all about k fabe. I know it's dead today, but boy,
<v Speaker 4>if we could ever bring it back, that's what the
<v Speaker 4>heart of the business is is making you believe. And
<v Speaker 4>when they are in character and then he points to
<v Speaker 4>the camera and talks to the camera, goes completely out
<v Speaker 4>of character. Again, I don't like that in principle. But
<v Speaker 4>the message I don't disagree with. The message itself is saying, oh,
<v Speaker 4>if you're a man, this and that in a society,
<v Speaker 4>and I don't want to hear thing about toxic masculinity
<v Speaker 4>right to me. I mean, you can have toxic masculinity
<v Speaker 4>if you can have toxic femininity, which I think there's
<v Speaker 4>actually a lot more of. How about that for pissing
<v Speaker 4>off some people, but I just do I mean, because
<v Speaker 4>feminism is essentially anti man. But it's saying that basically,
<v Speaker 4>if you're masculine in any traditional sense, that that's a
<v Speaker 4>bad thing, which I don't disagree. I disagree with wholeheartedly.
<v Speaker 4>I mean, our species survived and thrived because of men,
<v Speaker 4>not that women didn't have a role. I'm not saying that.
<v Speaker 4>I don't get I'm trying to get too deep here,
<v Speaker 4>but it's just a cultural shift that I think, unfortunately
<v Speaker 4>we had to Masculinity of any kind is toxic. It's
<v Speaker 4>bad telling boys not to be men, be more like women,
<v Speaker 4>be softer, be you know all this, which I don't
<v Speaker 4>think is true.
<v Speaker 2>I don't.
<v Speaker 4>I don't think that's a good message to send because
<v Speaker 4>men and women are inherently different. They have different traits.
<v Speaker 4>They both have advantages and disadvantages, strengths and weaknesses. And
<v Speaker 4>then that's why they go together so well, is because
<v Speaker 4>oftentimes they balance each other out. Not saying men are
<v Speaker 4>better than women. I'm not saying women are better than men.
<v Speaker 4>But I think I see I'm going off the rails.
<v Speaker 4>When you have a message like that brought into the forefront,
<v Speaker 4>it is a sign of the culture. That's I have
<v Speaker 4>no problem with men letting out of motion. But if
<v Speaker 4>you saw a man weeping, I mean, I'm sorry, outside
<v Speaker 4>of some tragic event, right, like you have a family
<v Speaker 4>member die, right, I don't think if I see a
<v Speaker 4>man just weeping and it's for a reason, that is
<v Speaker 4>not you know, tragic, right. If it's just because I'm
<v Speaker 4>so stressed I need to cry and we all get stressed,
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if it feels like I just lose
<v Speaker 4>a little respect for that person. Again, everyone's going through
<v Speaker 4>differ things. I understand that, I am.
<v Speaker 2>You are. Everyone listening to this is.
<v Speaker 4>But anyway, everybody should just of course do whatever you want,
<v Speaker 4>not telling anyone to act anyway that they want. It's
<v Speaker 4>just how I personally feel. Men should be men, women
<v Speaker 4>should be women. Doesn't mean ones better than the other.
<v Speaker 4>I just don't like people trying to feminize men. And
<v Speaker 4>it's fine if women want to cry, that's fine. But
<v Speaker 4>it's seeing a woman cry and sob is different than
<v Speaker 4>seeing a man like a man.
<v Speaker 2>Sob It just is.
<v Speaker 4>And if you tell me it's not, you're lying. I'm
<v Speaker 4>not saying that you feel the same way I do
<v Speaker 4>as far as losing a little respect or feeling that
<v Speaker 4>person's you know, you never know what someone's going through.
<v Speaker 4>And I know people are going to say that, but
<v Speaker 4>just objectively, if you saw two people sobbing in front
<v Speaker 4>of you, and one's a man, one's a woman, it
<v Speaker 4>would feel a little bit out of place that the
<v Speaker 4>man is sobbing, right, feels a little more awkward and
<v Speaker 4>kind of uncomfortable, you know, it just does. So I'm
<v Speaker 4>going I'm gonna get some funny emails on this one.
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be fun, all right.
<v Speaker 4>Well, now that I've angered some subset of my audience,
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it's just how I feel. Look, guys, you
<v Speaker 4>may feel differently, but I want to stress before you
<v Speaker 4>guys come at me. I'm woman hating. I've said four
<v Speaker 4>times now. Man is not better than a woman. Woman
<v Speaker 4>is not better than a man. Okay, but that doesn't
<v Speaker 4>mean we're the same. It just means we both deserve
<v Speaker 4>the same level of respect. Doesn't mean that we have
<v Speaker 4>the same traits or we need to have the same values,
<v Speaker 4>which is unfortunately what culture has told us today because
<v Speaker 4>of factors I won't get into here, but that men
<v Speaker 4>should be softer and it should be okay to just
<v Speaker 4>cry anytime you feel like crying. I mean, imagine sitting
<v Speaker 4>at your desk at working and just sobbing because you're
<v Speaker 4>stressed out and you're a dude. I'm sorry, it's I
<v Speaker 4>couldn't do it. Men handle stressed differently than women, but
<v Speaker 4>see different, not better.
<v Speaker 2>Different.
<v Speaker 4>So while I'll have the women on my show who
<v Speaker 4>were just like, oh, he hates No, different doesn't mean better.
<v Speaker 4>It just means different, that's all it means. And I
<v Speaker 4>just don't want men acting like women, and I don't
<v Speaker 4>want women acting like men.
<v Speaker 2>That's why we are separate. That's it.
<v Speaker 4>That's essentially the message at my core, We're at its core.
<v Speaker 4>So that I know that came all from Ellen Night's
<v Speaker 4>message on SmackDown, but since he brought it up, I
<v Speaker 4>wanted to give my two thoughts on it. So all right, Well,
<v Speaker 4>if anyone's still listening, I'll end it here and I'll
<v Speaker 4>wait those lovely emails if I wanted to respond to
<v Speaker 4>your women hating, which is of course preposterous, but anyway,
<v Speaker 4>thank you so much everybody for listening. I will be
<v Speaker 4>back on Friday with the mail bag. But you'll hear
<v Speaker 4>from our NXT host Jay. You'll hear from our after
<v Speaker 4>Dark host, which is exclusive to Patreon if you want

<v Speaker 4>does the SmackDown review. And then I'll be back on
<v Speaker 4>Friday with your mail bag. So if you guys have
<v Speaker 4>any questions or you want to reach out to me
