WEBVTT 00:00:30.799 --> 00:00:38.179 Yeah, so like you said, Adam, the last match 00:00:38.179 --> 00:00:44.740 of the evening. Yeah, so this was a men's singles 00:00:44.740 --> 00:00:47.320 match that was teased earlier in the night, which 00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:54.479 sees Jimmy Uso versus The Miz. Now, if you're 00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:56.299 going to look at this as the main event match 00:00:56.299 --> 00:01:00.719 of the evening. I really don't think it was strong 00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:04.640 enough to do that. I don't think any of the matches 00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:08.359 that we've had on the card were really strong 00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:12.599 enough to be a main event match. I mean... I'll 00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:15.200 argue the toss with you for that one. I knew 00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:17.980 you were going to because you're a pedantic motherfucker. 00:01:19.099 --> 00:01:22.379 Yeah, 100 % I am. If you take the ending out 00:01:22.379 --> 00:01:26.159 and they were allowed to properly go the distance... 00:01:26.409 --> 00:01:29.549 Randy Orton versus Drew McIntyre could have easily 00:01:29.549 --> 00:01:31.750 taken that main event slot and would have been 00:01:31.750 --> 00:01:34.250 an absolute friggin bomb. Actually, yeah, good 00:01:34.250 --> 00:01:36.930 shout. Good shout. Yeah, no, fair enough. But 00:01:36.930 --> 00:01:40.730 then saying that the Strowman LA night match 00:01:40.730 --> 00:01:43.549 could have been if you removed the interference 00:01:43.549 --> 00:01:47.790 and Jake and Fatou. So, yeah, no, I take back 00:01:47.790 --> 00:01:52.450 my previous statement. But yeah, so we ended 00:01:52.450 --> 00:01:58.700 up going into this match and to be fair I didn't 00:01:58.700 --> 00:02:05.599 really get a lot from it all I really got was 00:02:05.599 --> 00:02:10.360 was more the fact that Jimmy slapped Miz into 00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:12.759 timekeeping when he was on the outside leaning 00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:17.259 up against the barrier yeah Jimmy give him a 00:02:17.259 --> 00:02:19.419 slap and sent him over the barrier into timekeeping 00:02:19.419 --> 00:02:22.180 and that was the receipt for the one he was due 00:02:22.180 --> 00:02:28.370 in a corridor earlier I did get the Miz dropped 00:02:28.370 --> 00:02:32.009 Jim with a clothesline and went to go for the 00:02:32.009 --> 00:02:37.009 skull -crushing finale but Big Jim reversed it 00:02:37.009 --> 00:02:39.930 and and after a trade -off of a couple of moves 00:02:39.930 --> 00:02:42.889 there was a I think it was a trade -off of roll 00:02:42.889 --> 00:02:47.030 -ups to be fair they were finished with Big Jim 00:02:47.030 --> 00:02:53.270 getting a broken up two count and after the kick 00:02:53.270 --> 00:02:56.900 out some sort of both men. There was a point 00:02:56.900 --> 00:02:59.360 where you've got Big Jim kneeling down and Miz 00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:03.219 was teeing off on his chest with some rather 00:03:03.219 --> 00:03:10.379 nasty kicks. And then my favourite section of 00:03:10.379 --> 00:03:15.460 the evening, I'm not entirely sure why Miz did 00:03:15.460 --> 00:03:18.740 this and I don't think he did this on purpose, 00:03:19.280 --> 00:03:22.409 but Miz jumped off the top rope to... form what 00:03:22.409 --> 00:03:24.849 I presume was supposed to be like a phenomenal 00:03:24.849 --> 00:03:30.469 forearm style thing but he ended up eating a 00:03:30.469 --> 00:03:35.889 big old bowl of super kick from Jimmy Uso and 00:03:35.889 --> 00:03:39.930 then eating a rather large serving of a frog 00:03:39.930 --> 00:03:44.689 splash off the top rope as well for the three 00:03:44.689 --> 00:03:49.449 count for Big Jim to take the win on this one. 00:03:50.139 --> 00:03:54.080 for him to then run over to announce table stand 00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:57.360 on the announce table and grab it the spare headset 00:03:57.360 --> 00:04:00.919 that was on the table and cut himself a nice 00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:04.800 little promo to the crowd yeah and this was him 00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:08.240 talking basically about how he plans to demote 00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:14.000 Gunther from ring general to ring private next 00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:25.040 week on smackdown Better. Oh, 100%. So yeah, 00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:27.720 couldn't really, couldn't really knock him for 00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:32.939 anything that he said there. And yeah, I just, 00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:36.899 I couldn't help but feel and think, and I know 00:04:36.899 --> 00:04:41.519 that again, I rag on the Miz quite a lot and 00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:45.180 it's because I just don't, I do have to wonder 00:04:45.180 --> 00:04:50.300 at what point does the Miz just give it up? He's 00:04:50.300 --> 00:04:52.779 not getting anywhere near he's not getting another 00:04:52.779 --> 00:04:57.779 push. He's made enough money It could just be 00:04:57.779 --> 00:05:00.339 a case of he's running out his contract if he's 00:05:00.339 --> 00:05:02.379 you know If he's got a three four -year contract 00:05:02.379 --> 00:05:04.100 that he's signed and he's still got two and a 00:05:04.100 --> 00:05:06.519 half years left on it for an example I don't 00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:10.240 know what Mrs. Contract is looking like But yeah, 00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:12.139 this could just be him just rolling out his time 00:05:12.139 --> 00:05:14.139 taking his paycheck until the end and then kind 00:05:14.139 --> 00:05:16.439 of going You know what? Yeah, cool. I've done 00:05:20.699 --> 00:05:25.199 Just yeah, I'm I'm fed up of seeing I mean, you 00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:27.240 know what I say I'm fed up of seeing them is 00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:32.000 if you take them is away if the if the miss retired 00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:36.819 I Think I would probably miss talking about him 00:05:36.819 --> 00:05:39.120 because I'd have no one else to rag on because 00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:40.800 Charlotte Flair would have been gone at the same 00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:46.720 time, too Yeah, will we rag on when we lose them 00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:49.660 isn't Charlotte Flair We've still got Drew Mack 00:05:49.660 --> 00:05:52.680 in cry over fine. You still have That's correct. 00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:55.060 I'd forgotten about the Scottish crybaby. We 00:05:55.060 --> 00:05:58.879 see him next don't we? We do he's a he's in a 00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:02.699 backstage promo now First up that he's walking 00:06:02.699 --> 00:06:05.000 through backstage obviously quite pleased with 00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:11.519 himself Ends up meeting up with Lewis Capaldi 00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:14.620 who we did find out earlier on is apparently 00:06:14.620 --> 00:06:18.980 a big Drew Mack entire fan now I am gonna be 00:06:18.980 --> 00:06:22.620 the one I've seen again. I've been reading online 00:06:22.620 --> 00:06:27.839 articles and There is a an article making the 00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:30.579 rounds at the moment which makes the comparison 00:06:30.579 --> 00:06:36.519 that since Since the parent company of UFC have 00:06:36.519 --> 00:06:42.759 taken over WWE we're seeing a lot more Yeah, 00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:46.740 we're seeing a lot more celebrity appearances 00:06:47.470 --> 00:06:51.430 weekly television shows. Normally it's saved 00:06:51.430 --> 00:06:55.509 for PLEs and now we're getting it pushed a lot 00:06:55.509 --> 00:07:00.930 more. The article states basically that it's 00:07:00.930 --> 00:07:05.769 making it seem more and more like a UFC show, 00:07:06.709 --> 00:07:13.389 like a UFC event. where you see all the stars 00:07:13.389 --> 00:07:16.329 litter in the front row, and then everybody else 00:07:16.329 --> 00:07:18.750 is shoved to the back sort of thing. I mean, 00:07:19.029 --> 00:07:22.310 if WWE would like to start introducing ring girls 00:07:22.310 --> 00:07:24.750 to the equation, like the UFC did, there would 00:07:24.750 --> 00:07:28.290 be no complaints from me. Yeah, it's called the 00:07:28.290 --> 00:07:32.850 women's division. No, they are talented superstars, 00:07:33.050 --> 00:07:35.050 Adam. You cannot define them like that. They 00:07:35.050 --> 00:07:47.019 have feelings too, apparently. Well. Drew's having 00:07:47.019 --> 00:07:49.180 a conversation with Lewis Capaldi and basically 00:07:49.180 --> 00:07:51.699 says look mate you go and enjoy the rest of the 00:07:51.699 --> 00:07:55.459 show I'm off to the pub this is where I'm going 00:07:55.459 --> 00:07:59.120 let's go and Lewis is like cracking brilliant 00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.519 mate I'll see you for a pint later and wanders 00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:04.600 back off and Drew goes in the opposite direction 00:08:04.600 --> 00:08:10.379 he then runs into a lovely young lady by the 00:08:10.379 --> 00:08:14.819 name of Jackie Redmond who basically says hey 00:08:14.819 --> 00:08:16.339 Drew why you got a second I know you're off to 00:08:16.339 --> 00:08:20.100 the pub but you know give me your thoughts on 00:08:20.100 --> 00:08:22.500 tonight and he goes well look what happens when 00:08:22.500 --> 00:08:26.699 no one fucks with me I win and Drew Damian Priest 00:08:26.699 --> 00:08:29.199 didn't show up after I called him out last week 00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:34.580 so basically fuck him I'm off for a point and 00:08:34.580 --> 00:08:39.029 as he opens the door He opens the door and who 00:08:39.029 --> 00:08:41.090 should be stood the other side of the door but 00:08:41.090 --> 00:08:45.330 the guy liner wearing teamu version of the undertaker 00:08:45.330 --> 00:08:49.509 Who as in previous weeks said that when he sees 00:08:49.509 --> 00:08:54.350 mr. Mackin crier it will be on site and on site 00:08:54.350 --> 00:08:58.970 it was my good sir because Damien priest opened 00:08:58.970 --> 00:09:02.990 up a can of whoop ass and He emptied that can 00:09:02.990 --> 00:09:05.789 all over the little section of the parking lot 00:09:05.789 --> 00:09:10.190 there in including at one point bashing Drew 00:09:10.190 --> 00:09:13.250 McIntyre's head off the back of a rather nice 00:09:13.250 --> 00:09:20.330 BMW, which we're not going to go into too much. 00:09:20.590 --> 00:09:24.330 It was when the gentleman who owns the BMW, apparently, 00:09:25.450 --> 00:09:29.509 obviously this is probably a local performer 00:09:29.509 --> 00:09:34.230 or someone they've borrowed that's backstage, 00:09:34.830 --> 00:09:37.389 knows how to take a bump. Basically comes out 00:09:37.389 --> 00:09:42.049 goes. Oh, that's my car and damien priest responses 00:09:42.049 --> 00:09:45.950 basically I don't care and puts them through 00:09:45.950 --> 00:09:51.409 a table Yeah And and to be fair, yeah, he dropped 00:09:51.409 --> 00:09:53.809 him through the table. He then goes back to dealing 00:09:53.809 --> 00:09:58.350 with the the scottish crybaby Who ends up at 00:09:58.350 --> 00:10:01.549 one point? They both end up stood on the bonnet 00:10:01.549 --> 00:10:04.529 of this bmw now. They were in a massive car park 00:10:04.529 --> 00:10:08.200 environment There are lots of things they could 00:10:08.200 --> 00:10:11.059 be beating each other up with but they are stood 00:10:11.059 --> 00:10:15.980 on top of the bonnet of the BMW. Basically just 00:10:15.980 --> 00:10:19.860 punching each other until Damian Priest pops 00:10:19.860 --> 00:10:27.600 out a rather spectacular South of Heaven on Drew 00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:30.840 McIntyre and pops him into the windscreen of 00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:34.720 the vehicle which subsequently pops and then 00:10:34.720 --> 00:10:38.950 we see Damien priest crouch over him and just 00:10:38.950 --> 00:10:41.190 give them a little bit of verbal and disappear 00:10:41.190 --> 00:10:45.389 and We hear drew shouting that he's got a little 00:10:45.389 --> 00:10:49.429 bit of glass in his eye as Officials and medical 00:10:49.429 --> 00:10:55.110 personnel come running to his assistance And 00:10:55.110 --> 00:11:01.250 as he is lying on this on this the bonnet of 00:11:01.250 --> 00:11:03.909 this BMW out in the underneath car park we get 00:11:03.909 --> 00:11:08.909 a shot of the second city saint CM Punk walking 00:11:08.909 --> 00:11:15.950 through with his security on route to the ring 00:11:15.950 --> 00:11:22.750 or backstage ready for his contract signing with 00:11:22.750 --> 00:11:26.230 Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns for their triple 00:11:26.230 --> 00:11:28.429 threat match at WrestleMania in three weeks time. 00:11:29.539 --> 00:11:34.980 Yeah, so it's important to realise that each 00:11:34.980 --> 00:11:39.500 member, so we've had, we may not have necessarily 00:11:39.500 --> 00:11:42.559 talked about them overly much, but at different 00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:45.700 points during the event tonight, it has been 00:11:45.700 --> 00:11:49.240 a case that we have seen small little VTs of 00:11:49.559 --> 00:11:52.759 Each of the three superstars involved in that 00:11:52.759 --> 00:11:55.340 triple threat, so Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins 00:11:55.340 --> 00:11:58.799 and CM Punk, all of them arriving separately, 00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:05.240 surrounded by... Security. Security. And this 00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.980 was put in place by, or we're led to believe 00:12:07.980 --> 00:12:11.000 this is put in place by Nick Aldis, basically 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.580 because apparently they can't keep their hands 00:12:13.580 --> 00:12:17.169 to themselves. which is true they can't they 00:12:17.169 --> 00:12:19.690 like to fight and we like to watch them fight 00:12:19.690 --> 00:12:21.970 and quite frankly i don't want to wait until 00:12:21.970 --> 00:12:24.909 wrestlemania to watch these three fight i want 00:12:24.909 --> 00:12:27.370 to go back to last week where they were brawling 00:12:27.370 --> 00:12:30.470 in the everywhere i want to watch that again 00:12:30.470 --> 00:12:32.730 i want to see that every week until wrestlemania 00:12:32.730 --> 00:12:34.429 and then at wrestlemania i want to watch them 00:12:34.429 --> 00:12:36.330 do it on the grandest stage of them all with 00:12:36.330 --> 00:12:41.330 all the weapons they can possibly use yeah you're 00:12:41.330 --> 00:12:44.169 not gonna get that no i'm not but i know what 00:12:44.169 --> 00:12:47.000 i want to I can voice it, you never know, there 00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:51.000 could be a few weapons involved somewhere. But 00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:52.919 the reason I've brought up about the security 00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:55.259 is because it comes into play a little bit later, 00:12:55.379 --> 00:13:00.240 a little bit in the next few moments. Before 00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:04.019 we move on to the final item in tonight's show, 00:13:04.200 --> 00:13:08.460 we do get a VT promo recapping John Cena's promo 00:13:08.460 --> 00:13:12.450 from Monday Night Raw. If you really want to 00:13:12.450 --> 00:13:14.389 hear about that again you can go back to our 00:13:14.389 --> 00:13:17.129 episode coverage of Monday Night Raw where we 00:13:17.129 --> 00:13:20.929 talk about it in great detail. What we don't 00:13:20.929 --> 00:13:23.350 talk about in great detail however is what happens 00:13:23.350 --> 00:13:31.909 next. Now next we join Nick Aldiss in Ring who 00:13:31.909 --> 00:13:36.629 is presiding over, I said presiding in the loosest 00:13:36.629 --> 00:13:39.389 sense of the term as he's basically there as 00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:44.960 extra warm body in the ring after he's introduced 00:13:44.960 --> 00:13:49.379 what happens next which is the contract the WrestleMania 00:13:49.379 --> 00:13:52.779 contract signing for the triple threat between 00:13:52.779 --> 00:13:57.740 Reigns, Rollins and Punk and the first one to 00:13:57.740 --> 00:14:04.320 make his way out into the ring is the one true 00:14:04.320 --> 00:14:12.539 tribal chief Roman Reigns accompanied by the 00:14:12.539 --> 00:14:22.419 wise man Paul Fatman Heyman yeah and you know 00:14:22.419 --> 00:14:25.539 what Roman Rain seems to spend more time during 00:14:25.539 --> 00:14:28.360 this promo just enjoying how much admiration 00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:32.519 he gets I mean he was being acknowledged the 00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:37.059 tribal chief was being acknowledged by London 00:14:37.059 --> 00:14:46.059 South He most certainly was and and Yeah, basically 00:14:46.059 --> 00:14:50.159 he gets given him he gets given a mic asks London 00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:54.639 to acknowledge him and then Thanks them for serenading 00:14:54.639 --> 00:14:58.899 him which just makes them sing more This time 00:14:58.899 --> 00:15:02.580 standard free managed to get Paul Heyman to be 00:15:02.580 --> 00:15:10.159 sat there singing Roman Roman I thought it was 00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:13.539 quite good touch, to be fair. Don't get me wrong, 00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:16.220 because it plays into something else that happens 00:15:16.220 --> 00:15:21.519 a little bit later on. But basically, after this 00:15:21.519 --> 00:15:25.080 little sit down with Roman Reigns and the WWE 00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:28.600 Universe, Roman puts the pen to paper and signs 00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:31.360 the contract. Pretty much as soon as the pen 00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:38.700 leaves the paper, we hear, burn it down. I think 00:15:38.700 --> 00:15:42.539 I have noticed something to do with Seth Rollins. 00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:47.940 I believe during his entrance music on this one 00:15:47.940 --> 00:15:51.279 they've extended it a little bit because of the 00:15:51.279 --> 00:15:55.019 length of the ramp in the arena and they've added 00:15:55.019 --> 00:15:58.340 a little drum bit in the middle that is not normally 00:15:58.340 --> 00:16:05.960 there. 95 % sure they've they've added something 00:16:05.960 --> 00:16:10.700 or changed it slightly as it did not feel the 00:16:10.700 --> 00:16:15.679 way it normally feels I mean the the entrance 00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:21.700 ramp for this London event was actually shorter 00:16:21.700 --> 00:16:24.340 than some of the ones they've had in the European 00:16:24.340 --> 00:16:29.299 tour so far oh I mean something about this entrance 00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:32.360 his music by Seth Rollins. It just seemed a little 00:16:32.360 --> 00:16:36.799 bit different. I didn't pick up on anything. 00:16:38.019 --> 00:16:41.860 So have a little look and then get back to me. 00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:46.100 I think it was slightly different. I think I 00:16:46.100 --> 00:16:49.679 may have to do that in fairness. But yes, we 00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:54.779 see Seth Rollins. is the next one to come out 00:16:54.779 --> 00:16:57.559 accompanied by his security detail that have 00:16:57.559 --> 00:17:00.220 been following him around all night in exactly 00:17:00.220 --> 00:17:02.440 the same way that when Roman Reigns and Paul 00:17:02.440 --> 00:17:05.700 Heyman came out their security detail came out 00:17:05.700 --> 00:17:09.599 with them as well so we now have two lots of 00:17:09.599 --> 00:17:13.599 security out surrounding the ring with two of 00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:17.599 the three combatants in the triple threat match 00:17:17.599 --> 00:17:22.259 for WrestleMania and The one thing I did make 00:17:22.259 --> 00:17:25.319 a note of is for once Seth Rollins didn't come 00:17:25.319 --> 00:17:28.880 out dressed like a twat. He had a reasonably 00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:33.319 normal suit on. I mean about as normal as you 00:17:33.319 --> 00:17:36.019 can get for Seth Rollins' wardrobe. Yeah but 00:17:36.019 --> 00:17:40.019 it wasn't as out there as his last few outfits 00:17:40.019 --> 00:17:43.700 have been. Pretty sure him and Sam Smith share 00:17:43.700 --> 00:17:47.599 a wardrobe you know. That wouldn't shock me in 00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:54.839 the slightest. yeah so Seth Rollins during his 00:17:54.839 --> 00:17:59.799 entrance actually ends up giving Paul Heyman 00:17:59.799 --> 00:18:03.640 a chance to sing along with his crowd interaction 00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:08.180 as well to which honestly Paul Heyman just looks 00:18:08.180 --> 00:18:11.099 horrified. The look on Paul Heyman's face looked 00:18:11.099 --> 00:18:13.700 like Seth Rollins had just taken a shit on his 00:18:13.700 --> 00:18:18.700 shoe and then rubbed his nose in it. Like, Paul 00:18:18.700 --> 00:18:22.150 Heyman looked disgusted. the fact that Seth Rollins 00:18:22.150 --> 00:18:24.769 had the audacity to be like, you're gonna come 00:18:24.769 --> 00:18:29.369 in and go, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Yeah, you 00:18:29.369 --> 00:18:33.089 know what I mean? This was pretty much the only 00:18:33.089 --> 00:18:35.630 time during this promo that we actually saw Seth 00:18:35.630 --> 00:18:42.849 Rollins himself smile. Yes. So Seth comes out, 00:18:42.930 --> 00:18:46.549 talks about his and Roman's history, about the 00:18:46.549 --> 00:18:51.240 fact that 12 years ago. Yep, they came into this 00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:56.019 exact same arena via helicopter as the shield 00:18:56.019 --> 00:19:00.940 with obviously Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, and 00:19:00.940 --> 00:19:02.819 the one that should not be named who currently 00:19:02.819 --> 00:19:06.440 works in AW under the name of John Moxley, that 00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:09.839 of course being Dean Ambrose, who ironically 00:19:09.839 --> 00:19:15.200 is not mentioned at all in this series of exchanges 00:19:15.200 --> 00:19:19.690 between Roman and Seth. no because he's not relevant 00:19:19.690 --> 00:19:23.990 no he's not but I thought they might have bought 00:19:23.990 --> 00:19:26.190 him up when they said about you know coming in 00:19:26.190 --> 00:19:28.470 on the helicopter the three of them the Hounds 00:19:28.470 --> 00:19:32.049 of Justice you know coming down through the crowd 00:19:32.049 --> 00:19:36.230 but yeah no no mention of Dean Ambrose at all 00:19:36.230 --> 00:19:41.349 and yeah basically sort of summarizes it all 00:19:41.349 --> 00:19:46.329 to Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns his past being 00:19:46.960 --> 00:19:49.819 was the words he used a little bit of love and 00:19:49.819 --> 00:19:53.700 a whole lot of hate which I actually quite liked 00:19:53.700 --> 00:19:56.160 I thought that was quite poetic very fitting 00:19:56.160 --> 00:19:58.960 to be fair and that's also something I made a 00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:03.180 note of and Seth Rollins also said they they 00:20:03.180 --> 00:20:08.039 accomplished their mission to which Roman replies 00:20:08.039 --> 00:20:12.140 basically I'm hearing a lot of we you know we 00:20:12.140 --> 00:20:16.930 died a long time ago since then it's really only 00:20:16.930 --> 00:20:22.309 been him this was basically this was the battle 00:20:22.309 --> 00:20:25.609 of the narcissist really Roman Reigns and Seth 00:20:25.609 --> 00:20:30.289 Rollins both have a massive ego and when the 00:20:30.289 --> 00:20:33.730 two of them bump foreheads and both of them have 00:20:33.730 --> 00:20:36.710 rather large foreheads and receding hairlines 00:20:36.710 --> 00:20:43.559 um it is uh normally a loud hollow boink And 00:20:43.559 --> 00:20:45.819 that's pretty much what you got from these two. 00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:53.700 It's just a lot of doink. Yeah. And from there, 00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:57.440 it sort of degrades into, well, you've done this, 00:20:57.539 --> 00:21:00.400 and you've done that, and all the rest of it. 00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:03.140 Because Seth Rollins starts talking about how 00:21:03.519 --> 00:21:07.220 In which case Roman Reigns is responsible for 00:21:07.220 --> 00:21:10.700 allowing CM Punk back into the fold sort of thing. 00:21:11.240 --> 00:21:13.799 He allowed the snake back into the garden is 00:21:13.799 --> 00:21:18.500 how he phrased it. Seth Rollins yet again has 00:21:18.500 --> 00:21:23.799 to come and clear up Roman Reigns' mess. Yet 00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:27.319 the last time there was any mess and the two 00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:31.380 of them were involved it was actually Seth trying 00:21:31.380 --> 00:21:37.819 to help Cody. Give Romans best to deal with payback 00:21:37.819 --> 00:21:44.200 so to speak Yeah, this is a and But it's at this 00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:47.359 point that Seth Rollins again puts pen to paper 00:21:47.359 --> 00:21:54.119 and signs the contract Which again, it's it's 00:21:54.119 --> 00:21:57.420 almost as if as soon as Seth Rollins is pen left 00:21:57.420 --> 00:22:02.380 the page It was a case that we were then we were 00:22:02.380 --> 00:22:08.960 then Treated to the entry music of the second 00:22:08.960 --> 00:22:16.940 City Saint, Mr. CM Punk. Yes, very much so. Came 00:22:16.940 --> 00:22:20.339 out with Mike in hand. He makes his entrance 00:22:20.339 --> 00:22:24.359 accompanied by yet more security. Yes, so at 00:22:24.359 --> 00:22:28.440 this point we have 15 members of security, Nick 00:22:28.440 --> 00:22:34.430 Aldis and three pro wrestlers. All in very close 00:22:34.430 --> 00:22:37.150 proximity and poor Hayman. Yes, and then if you 00:22:37.150 --> 00:22:39.930 want to be really pernickety about it We also 00:22:39.930 --> 00:22:43.869 have a Wade Barrett and Joe Tessitore Ringside 00:22:43.869 --> 00:22:45.710 and we know Wade Barrett knows how to handle 00:22:45.710 --> 00:22:48.690 himself in these situations. He's been in many 00:22:48.690 --> 00:22:53.609 himself but um, yeah, mr. Punk comes down and 00:22:53.609 --> 00:22:57.970 Says he is here to chew bubblegum and sign a 00:22:57.970 --> 00:23:01.349 contract he then spits his gum out and goes I'm 00:23:01.349 --> 00:23:06.380 all out of gum It was a Duke Nukem reference 00:23:06.380 --> 00:23:10.180 and I'm not gonna lie, the biggest smile came 00:23:10.180 --> 00:23:12.920 across my face when he did it. It was the one 00:23:12.920 --> 00:23:17.299 thing I didn't expect. No, it's definitely not, 00:23:17.319 --> 00:23:21.319 but it was a good funny moment from CM Punk. 00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:24.900 So Punk comes in and starts reading the contract 00:23:24.900 --> 00:23:27.480 and Roman's like, come on dude, go to page four, 00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:32.000 clause five, hurry up, we're on TV. And then 00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:35.299 he starts, Roman's getting impatient. Punk's 00:23:35.299 --> 00:23:37.660 reading this contract. He wants to make sure 00:23:37.660 --> 00:23:40.339 that what he wants to be in that contract is 00:23:40.339 --> 00:23:42.880 in that contract. We don't know at this point 00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:46.759 what it is that he wants in that contract, but 00:23:46.759 --> 00:23:50.940 he wants something in there. Basically, Raymond 00:23:50.940 --> 00:23:54.500 Rain says to Paul Heyman, look mate, go and fucking 00:23:54.500 --> 00:23:56.259 give him the skinny. Go and tell him what's going 00:23:56.259 --> 00:24:01.789 on and let's get this party started. at which 00:24:01.789 --> 00:24:04.730 Paul Heyman kind of gets up out of his Kneeling 00:24:04.730 --> 00:24:08.309 position walks around to CM Punk and kneels down 00:24:08.309 --> 00:24:12.710 and says to him That he knows what he's looking 00:24:12.710 --> 00:24:20.769 for and It is in the contract basically He is 00:24:20.769 --> 00:24:25.950 told that this year the match between Seth Rollins 00:24:26.250 --> 00:24:29.809 Roman Reigns and himself once he signed that 00:24:29.809 --> 00:24:34.750 contract will be the main event of WrestleMania 00:24:34.750 --> 00:24:38.950 and that Punk is getting to live his dream of 00:24:38.950 --> 00:24:43.890 being a WrestleMania main eventer and you know 00:24:43.890 --> 00:24:46.869 at this point CM Punk's got what the one thing 00:24:46.869 --> 00:24:49.210 that he's always wanted even from his first run 00:24:49.210 --> 00:24:51.450 within the company what he wanted was to main 00:24:51.450 --> 00:24:54.390 event WrestleMania because he knows that he's 00:24:54.390 --> 00:24:56.859 good enough to do so. We also know that he's 00:24:56.859 --> 00:24:58.900 good enough to do so and this time he's not having 00:24:58.900 --> 00:25:01.400 his opportunity stolen off him from the rock. 00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:07.039 I find it incredible that somebody like CM Punk 00:25:07.039 --> 00:25:11.279 has never done it, right? Yeah. But then we think 00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:14.859 he had a 10 year gap that he wasn't in pro wrestling 00:25:14.859 --> 00:25:18.079 for that a lot of us forget. It's as though he's 00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:23.630 been there forever. Because he was there long 00:25:23.630 --> 00:25:27.930 time on his first run and at no point did he 00:25:27.930 --> 00:25:32.789 ever like that I find that nigh on unbelievable 00:25:32.789 --> 00:25:36.309 That CM Punk at no point in history has ever 00:25:36.309 --> 00:25:39.349 main evented WrestleMania Well, he was supposed 00:25:39.349 --> 00:25:41.730 to the one year with this match against Undertaker, 00:25:41.730 --> 00:25:44.869 but rock came back and stole his his main event 00:25:44.869 --> 00:25:48.529 spot That's what yes why he was so pissed wonder 00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:55.859 He's just the guy that ran off with the WWE title. 00:25:56.940 --> 00:26:01.779 Right. Yeah, such an iconic character within 00:26:01.779 --> 00:26:06.019 WWE and wrestling as a whole. And he's never 00:26:06.019 --> 00:26:09.759 main evented WrestleMania until this year. Where 00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:13.960 people like The Miz have. And yeah, like some 00:26:13.960 --> 00:26:16.000 weird combinations you think punk should have 00:26:16.000 --> 00:26:17.630 been in there. He was supposed to have beaten 00:26:17.630 --> 00:26:21.029 this match against the Undertaker but he got 00:26:21.029 --> 00:26:25.849 knocked down due to Rock coming back in. So we 00:26:25.849 --> 00:26:28.589 basically get told that Punk is finally going 00:26:28.589 --> 00:26:31.750 to be a WrestleMania main eventer and Seth Rollins 00:26:31.750 --> 00:26:37.769 is fucking pissed. Basically he tells CM Punk 00:26:37.769 --> 00:26:41.970 to stop crying he does not deserve it and really 00:26:41.970 --> 00:26:46.539 starts going off on one about how Main event 00:26:46.539 --> 00:26:49.099 in WrestleMania is sacred to him and how it means 00:26:49.099 --> 00:26:53.759 more to him than anything and basically CM Punk 00:26:53.759 --> 00:26:56.400 don't deserve it and it's all Roman's fault. 00:26:57.559 --> 00:27:00.819 At which point Roman sat there feeling pretty 00:27:00.819 --> 00:27:02.799 pleased with himself because he seems to think 00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:06.700 that he's fulfilled the favour that Paul Heyman 00:27:06.700 --> 00:27:12.700 owes to CM Punk and then sort of overplays his 00:27:12.700 --> 00:27:17.880 hand a little bit. So, Punk's actually quite 00:27:17.880 --> 00:27:21.240 emotional at this news. I mean, it's been his 00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:25.519 dream. He's realizing a dream. This is an emotional 00:27:25.519 --> 00:27:29.299 time for anybody.
