WEBVTT

00:00:32.420 --> 00:00:36.820
And welcome back everybody to our coverage to

00:00:36.820 --> 00:00:41.159
Finishes and Factions does night one of WrestleMania

00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:45.979
41. So far we've covered pretty much every match

00:00:45.979 --> 00:00:50.719
but we decided that the last two matches there

00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:54.200
was enough there for us to be able to sort of

00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:58.649
split this one off and And yeah, give it its

00:00:58.649 --> 00:01:04.250
own episode. So we crack straight in with match

00:01:04.250 --> 00:01:08.769
six on the card of night one, which was the WWE

00:01:08.769 --> 00:01:13.829
Women's Championship match, which sees Tiffany

00:01:13.829 --> 00:01:20.420
Stratton as our current champion. That's about

00:01:20.420 --> 00:01:22.439
as high pitched as he goes without a kick to

00:01:22.439 --> 00:01:24.540
the nards. I mean, I could probably go a lot

00:01:24.540 --> 00:01:26.540
higher, but I wasn't really attempting to. But

00:01:26.540 --> 00:01:29.640
yeah, it's tippy time! Woohoo! I've been looking

00:01:29.640 --> 00:01:32.500
forward to this match for a little while. Charlotte

00:01:32.500 --> 00:01:36.560
Flair's getting her ass handed to her on a big

00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:39.659
silver plate, like she deserves for being a Flair.

00:01:42.060 --> 00:01:44.540
You have no issue with Rick Flair. You just have

00:01:44.540 --> 00:01:50.560
an issue with Charlotte Flair. Mm -hmm. Yeah,

00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:55.219
everyone loves red flag Except the women he leaves

00:01:55.219 --> 00:02:01.599
behind. Well, yeah Yeah, everyone love Charlotte

00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:05.260
apart from the men that she leaves behind There's

00:02:05.260 --> 00:02:08.280
been a fair few of those I just meant that Charlotte

00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:10.219
was one of the women that Rick Flair left behind.

00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:16.240
Oh, oh, oh I like it. I like it Works on a couple

00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:20.610
of different levels say Yes, as you've no doubt

00:02:20.610 --> 00:02:22.770
guessed, we'll just go quickly through introductions

00:02:22.770 --> 00:02:27.310
again. My name is Adam. The other voice on the

00:02:27.310 --> 00:02:30.650
podcast you can hear is Rich. It certainly is.

00:02:32.250 --> 00:02:35.650
We go into match six, which as with pretty much

00:02:35.650 --> 00:02:39.370
every match on the card on both nights, has an

00:02:39.370 --> 00:02:45.490
opening VT, which basically shows Tiffany's meteoric

00:02:45.490 --> 00:02:51.080
rise to the top. the past achievements of the

00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:55.000
nepo queen herself including her purchase of

00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:59.340
the victory of the 2025 royal rumble which is

00:02:59.340 --> 00:03:03.460
the reason she is in this match i'd say she purchased

00:03:03.460 --> 00:03:06.580
it it pretty much felt like it she kind of decided

00:03:06.580 --> 00:03:08.819
she was going shopping went oh i'm going to buy

00:03:08.819 --> 00:03:11.560
another title opportunity yep i'll purchase that

00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:14.360
one at the royal rumble thank you very much and

00:03:14.360 --> 00:03:20.389
uh there we go But saying that, if you do look

00:03:20.389 --> 00:03:23.310
down, as we're introduced to these superstars,

00:03:23.789 --> 00:03:26.710
we are given a few statistics about them. The

00:03:26.710 --> 00:03:30.349
first one with Charlotte as she came down, she

00:03:30.349 --> 00:03:34.889
was the second one to the ring, which was unusual

00:03:34.889 --> 00:03:37.169
considering she's the challenger. Normally the

00:03:37.169 --> 00:03:39.469
challenger has been coming out first, and then

00:03:39.469 --> 00:03:43.330
the champion has been coming out. But we are

00:03:43.330 --> 00:03:45.500
introduced to... Well, I'll give you Charlotte's

00:03:45.500 --> 00:03:49.159
details first. She is a six times women's champion,

00:03:50.139 --> 00:03:54.819
seven time women's world champion, a two times

00:03:54.819 --> 00:03:59.900
NXT champion, a one time women's tag champion.

00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:03.020
And that was with Asuka. I can't remember the

00:04:03.020 --> 00:04:07.789
year, but both. Charlotte Flair and Asuka held

00:04:07.789 --> 00:04:11.449
those titles for 41 days before losing them at

00:04:11.449 --> 00:04:14.210
the Royal Rumble to the team of Shayna Baszler

00:04:14.210 --> 00:04:19.949
and Naya Jax. And she is a two -time Royal Rumble

00:04:19.949 --> 00:04:26.589
winner. That would be 2020 and then 2025. So

00:04:26.589 --> 00:04:29.290
she won the tag titles. You're right with Asuka

00:04:29.290 --> 00:04:35.930
and it was at TLC in 2020. Oh, there we go. See,

00:04:35.990 --> 00:04:38.629
I love the fact that we both look for different

00:04:38.629 --> 00:04:40.870
information when we go to do our research. I

00:04:40.870 --> 00:04:44.829
just wanted to know who. And ChatGBT was very

00:04:44.829 --> 00:04:47.269
helpful with the extra little bit of information.

00:04:47.550 --> 00:04:50.149
But you've seemed to have pulled off a completely

00:04:50.149 --> 00:04:53.730
different section of information and brought

00:04:53.730 --> 00:04:56.750
out a little bit more to the game. So, touche.

00:04:56.889 --> 00:04:58.550
Two heads are better than one on that research.

00:04:59.389 --> 00:05:03.129
definitely and yeah I mean it's it's actually

00:05:03.129 --> 00:05:05.629
quite important to note as well the fact that

00:05:05.629 --> 00:05:10.350
despite all this really rather impressive resume

00:05:10.350 --> 00:05:14.129
of different titles that Charlotte has held it's

00:05:14.129 --> 00:05:16.889
actually been two years since the last time she

00:05:16.889 --> 00:05:22.949
hold held championship gold so it's it's been

00:05:22.949 --> 00:05:26.000
a little while since Has it really been that

00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:28.240
long since we've had to deal with the nepo queen

00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:32.339
herself? We've had to deal with her before that

00:05:32.339 --> 00:05:35.259
and she was only out of action for a year She

00:05:35.259 --> 00:05:37.240
was with that knee injury, but yeah, she did

00:05:37.240 --> 00:05:40.240
have a little while I think Charlotte Flair fell

00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:43.420
off as Rhea was coming up through the ranks and

00:05:43.420 --> 00:05:47.240
I think it was a perfect swap. I'm not sure Professional

00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:49.920
wrestling needs Charlotte Flair as much as Charlotte

00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:55.379
Flair needs professional wrestling Yeah, pretty

00:05:55.379 --> 00:05:58.639
much. It's definitely a bit tip to the scale

00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:01.279
there for it. I have seen some interesting memes

00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:03.620
regarding her dad the last few days though, but

00:06:03.620 --> 00:06:05.560
we're not going to go into that yet because they

00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:09.959
are some spoiler memes. So we will leave those

00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:14.040
where they need to be, which is pretty much where

00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:18.319
these two women left it to be fair. Well, carry

00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:21.480
on going over the entrances because we skirted

00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:25.930
completely past Tiffy's entrance and and the

00:06:25.930 --> 00:06:28.310
only other note that I made of Charlotte's entrance

00:06:28.310 --> 00:06:35.550
was that she was Driven into the arena in a Rolls

00:06:35.550 --> 00:06:41.430
-Royce Phantom now was It's I'm sorry the Rolls

00:06:41.430 --> 00:06:44.449
-Royce Phantom. It's a prestige car for a reason

00:06:44.449 --> 00:06:49.350
It is a beautiful piece of machinery It's just

00:06:49.350 --> 00:06:51.649
a shame that it had a rather ugly piece of machinery

00:06:51.649 --> 00:06:58.689
come out of it. Yes. Now, Tiffy's entrance, very,

00:06:58.730 --> 00:07:02.250
very different. Now, as Rich mentioned, Tiffy

00:07:02.250 --> 00:07:06.829
did come out first and we had the entire WrestleMania

00:07:06.829 --> 00:07:13.850
41 stage turned into Barbie's dream house. We

00:07:13.850 --> 00:07:16.009
did. I'm just going to throw out before we move

00:07:16.009 --> 00:07:18.639
too much further. that the car that Charlotte

00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:28.500
Flair arrived in starts at $357 ,000 and with

00:07:28.500 --> 00:07:32.839
all its included optional extras finishes at

00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:40.379
a grand total of $422 ,000 while the Spectra,

00:07:40.500 --> 00:07:45.939
the top end Rolls Royce Phantom starts at $400

00:07:45.939 --> 00:07:51.279
,000. US $23 ,000. So there was an awful lot

00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:54.519
of money driving up onto that stage holding something

00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:58.720
worth very little in the passenger seat. That's

00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:02.600
not true. I mean her net worth is incredible,

00:08:02.740 --> 00:08:06.199
but yes. The amount of plastic surgery alone

00:08:06.199 --> 00:08:08.819
makes Charlotte Flair worth probably about as

00:08:08.819 --> 00:08:11.500
much as the car. That was quite funny. That was

00:08:11.500 --> 00:08:14.139
the one thing I found interesting about her entry

00:08:14.139 --> 00:08:17.050
VT. when you look at the pictures of charlotte

00:08:17.050 --> 00:08:20.209
flair when she was first winning titles compared

00:08:20.209 --> 00:08:23.129
to the charlotte flair that goes into this match

00:08:23.129 --> 00:08:28.949
there is a huge huge difference and i'm not talking

00:08:28.949 --> 00:08:32.750
about 15 years either there's a massive difference

00:08:32.750 --> 00:08:36.450
like a completely different person mate i thought

00:08:36.450 --> 00:08:38.990
i thought fucking he -man was gonna come and

00:08:38.990 --> 00:08:42.110
call on the power of fucking greyskull to beat

00:08:42.110 --> 00:08:49.950
her Like yeah, no, I'm not blogging a dead horse,

00:08:49.950 --> 00:08:53.409
but that horse is fucking dead Yeah, well Tiffy

00:08:53.409 --> 00:08:55.110
Stratton did a good job of flogging it around

00:08:55.110 --> 00:08:58.490
for a little while especially the You know with

00:08:58.490 --> 00:09:01.289
the fact that she's been championed for a hundred

00:09:01.289 --> 00:09:06.669
and six days a third and six days Title defense

00:09:06.669 --> 00:09:11.639
is against the most decorated female superstar

00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:15.779
in the history of this sport. As much as we don't

00:09:15.779 --> 00:09:20.940
like her, that is pretty much what she is. One

00:09:20.940 --> 00:09:29.320
of Tiffy's promos that she cut between when Charlotte

00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:31.399
selected her as the champion she was going to

00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:36.799
be going up against was pointed out really well

00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:43.779
that if Tiffany loses to Charlotte at WrestleMania

00:09:43.779 --> 00:09:48.379
Tiffany loses nothing she loses the title admittedly

00:09:48.379 --> 00:09:52.980
but in terms of credibility loses nothing it's

00:09:52.980 --> 00:09:56.320
Charlotte that has everything to lose with this

00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:59.519
match yeah this is a highly decorated as she

00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:03.279
is we've got to remember that Tiffany Stratton

00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:06.919
is still greener than grass oh definitely she

00:10:06.919 --> 00:10:11.110
is so so green She's not been in the industry

00:10:11.110 --> 00:10:17.950
for very very long In fact, this was her first

00:10:17.950 --> 00:10:22.509
WrestleMania first first wrestle so just as well

00:10:22.509 --> 00:10:27.330
as Just as well as being a first match and WrestleMania

00:10:27.330 --> 00:10:31.129
As well as the first match that she's actually

00:10:31.129 --> 00:10:34.509
had against Charlotte Flair Yeah, so think about

00:10:34.509 --> 00:10:38.429
that. That's that's so many unknowns Definitely,

00:10:38.669 --> 00:10:44.230
but when you have us An opponent sorry like Charlotte

00:10:44.230 --> 00:10:50.509
Flair you have 15 years worth of YouTube footage

00:10:50.509 --> 00:10:54.610
to see what you were gonna get Plus you can watch

00:10:54.610 --> 00:10:57.830
every episode and every match she's ever had

00:10:57.830 --> 00:11:03.820
on Netflix So for whatever brand she's been representing

00:11:03.820 --> 00:11:06.940
at the time, her matches are all on Netflix,

00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:11.019
pay -per -view, NXT, standard weekly shows. You

00:11:11.019 --> 00:11:13.559
can find everything you need to for Charlotte

00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:18.379
Flair online. So she's gotta be probably one

00:11:18.379 --> 00:11:21.480
of the easiest people to do research for a match

00:11:21.480 --> 00:11:24.519
against because of how much footage there is

00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:30.220
of her out there. But the other side of that

00:11:30.220 --> 00:11:33.919
coin is that Charlotte Flair knows all of that

00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.200
exists as well. It could very well be a case

00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:42.720
that she is coming out with a completely different

00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:45.840
game plan that she's never had before. It could

00:11:45.840 --> 00:11:48.539
it could be and I think if we're lucky enough

00:11:48.539 --> 00:11:52.779
to see that then you know as fans we are going

00:11:52.779 --> 00:11:57.850
to really really get a decent match here. and

00:11:57.850 --> 00:12:02.710
the start itself was just enough. You know, Charlotte

00:12:02.710 --> 00:12:06.470
Flair drops Tiffy right at the start, at which

00:12:06.470 --> 00:12:09.450
point you kind of think, here we go. This is

00:12:09.450 --> 00:12:13.710
where amateur and professional get shown the

00:12:13.710 --> 00:12:17.509
difference between the two. But actually, I think

00:12:17.509 --> 00:12:21.190
Tiffy Stratton, going into this match, has Charlotte's

00:12:21.190 --> 00:12:23.149
number, and I think at the start of this match,

00:12:23.350 --> 00:12:29.529
it is very even. But, If he pretty much has it

00:12:29.529 --> 00:12:32.129
I think I think as long if you look at an overall

00:12:32.129 --> 00:12:35.110
Sort of census of this and if you look through

00:12:35.110 --> 00:12:37.190
my notes a lot of them start with the letters

00:12:37.190 --> 00:12:41.409
CF But there is also a lot of TS in there, too

00:12:41.409 --> 00:12:45.509
So, you know, it was very even a very equal for

00:12:45.509 --> 00:12:51.009
a lot of it So Charlotte Flair's biggest issue

00:12:51.009 --> 00:12:55.440
was it was definitely her ego that was playing

00:12:55.440 --> 00:12:58.559
more of a part in her decisions in the ring during

00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:01.679
this match. Like she started off very composed

00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:08.500
and it broke down in a hurry. I mean, she even.

00:13:10.279 --> 00:13:15.240
Charlotte Flair even went to the extent of imitating

00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:20.919
our current NXT, our current. NXT Women's Champion

00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:24.159
Stephanie Vakour at one stage. The only thing

00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:31.279
that was missing was Booker T's cum spasm. Yeah,

00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:35.559
you know what? If I had the money to write NXT

00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:38.779
a big fat check to fire Booker T for that, I

00:13:38.779 --> 00:13:42.519
would. There is nothing that ruins the Stephanie

00:13:42.519 --> 00:13:46.279
Vakour match more. than Booker T dry humping

00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:48.480
the microphone every time she does that move.

00:13:50.139 --> 00:13:55.460
But do you know what? Watching it happen without

00:13:55.460 --> 00:13:58.980
Booker T being there somehow feels wrong now.

00:13:59.259 --> 00:14:04.039
It does. It does. It doesn't look right in any

00:14:04.039 --> 00:14:11.700
way, shape or form. Yeah, that was that was an

00:14:11.700 --> 00:14:13.659
interesting to see Charlotte Flair do something

00:14:13.659 --> 00:14:16.720
like that. But again, this is what I was just

00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:19.740
saying about Charlotte Flair is that she is veteran

00:14:19.740 --> 00:14:24.039
enough now that she has a plethora of offense,

00:14:24.539 --> 00:14:27.179
some of which we've never seen her do before.

00:14:27.960 --> 00:14:30.899
Right. And she is experienced enough to know

00:14:30.899 --> 00:14:34.820
what she can and can't do. So she uses that kiss

00:14:34.820 --> 00:14:40.059
of death. She uses You know, we see her with

00:14:40.059 --> 00:14:45.419
the Boston Crab, we see her use her standard

00:14:45.419 --> 00:14:49.139
moonsaults, we get to set out power bombs, you

00:14:49.139 --> 00:14:54.840
see natural selection eventually. Yeah, you see

00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:57.419
an awful lot from Charlotte Flair and actually

00:14:57.419 --> 00:15:01.639
you kind of get to realise, and I can't believe

00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:03.980
this is going to come out of my mouth, but when

00:15:03.980 --> 00:15:07.059
you see her in the ring, you actually get to

00:15:07.059 --> 00:15:10.700
see the glimpses of how talented she used to

00:15:10.700 --> 00:15:14.000
be and how progressive Charlotte Flair was when

00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:16.200
she first burst onto the professional wrestling

00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:20.659
scene. Some of what she was doing against Tiffy

00:15:20.659 --> 00:15:23.639
Stratton was very young Charlotte -esque. Unfortunately,

00:15:23.700 --> 00:15:27.379
it just wasn't as good as it used to be. But

00:15:27.379 --> 00:15:31.899
this is a woman now who is sort of in her late

00:15:31.899 --> 00:15:36.340
30s, early 40s where When we first saw Charlotte

00:15:36.340 --> 00:15:41.539
Flair, she was late 20s, early 30s and a lot

00:15:41.539 --> 00:15:44.299
can happen in that time and she's had a lot of

00:15:44.299 --> 00:15:48.120
problems with those knees. You know, over the

00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:50.759
years she's had quite a few knee issues that

00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:52.700
she's had to go out and have surgery with and

00:15:52.700 --> 00:15:57.360
maybe if you look at it, if you had Tiffy Stratton

00:15:57.360 --> 00:15:59.980
in her prime versus Charlotte Flair's in hers,

00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:02.440
I think this would have given us the match that

00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:06.309
as fans we deserved. I don't think we got from

00:16:06.309 --> 00:16:09.049
this match everything this match could have given

00:16:09.049 --> 00:16:17.269
us. No, I can agree with that. It's. Yeah, it's.

00:16:17.990 --> 00:16:20.929
You've got the face of the company. The face

00:16:20.929 --> 00:16:26.870
of women's wrestling on SmackDown. Going up against

00:16:26.870 --> 00:16:32.629
the most decorated female superstar in WWE history.

00:16:33.259 --> 00:16:37.240
That in itself is supposed to be a five star

00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:41.779
match surely There's got to be like a good sort

00:16:41.779 --> 00:16:43.759
of like four and a half to five star match one

00:16:43.759 --> 00:16:46.279
of the best matches of the weekend at WrestleMania

00:16:46.279 --> 00:16:50.139
because of what it is This wasn't anywhere near

00:16:50.139 --> 00:16:54.259
that at all. I Don't know about you, but I saw

00:16:54.259 --> 00:16:58.980
several of several times where Charlotte flair

00:16:58.980 --> 00:17:06.599
was gassed. Yes running on complete empty and

00:17:06.599 --> 00:17:09.839
She's not really had a proper match in the build

00:17:09.839 --> 00:17:13.700
-up to this like yeah, she she's had Matches,

00:17:13.740 --> 00:17:16.200
but none of them have been longer than five minutes

00:17:16.200 --> 00:17:17.920
and now she's gone into something that's meant

00:17:17.920 --> 00:17:22.660
to be a 25 30 minute match and She hasn't got

00:17:22.660 --> 00:17:25.779
the stamina Yeah, which is unusual considering.

00:17:25.779 --> 00:17:28.319
She's Rick stairs, you know, Rick Flair's daughter

00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:31.619
was apparently his stamina was half decent Yes,

00:17:31.700 --> 00:17:38.079
but Rick Flair wasn't a pillow princess. And

00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:39.880
that's pretty much how Tippi Stratton treated

00:17:39.880 --> 00:17:41.680
Charlotte Flair towards the end of this match.

00:17:43.220 --> 00:17:45.480
Like a bitch. Charlotte Flair quite honestly

00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:51.240
was too gassed to carry on. She was. towards

00:17:51.240 --> 00:17:54.200
the end of this match she was making she was

00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:57.160
making tiny little mistakes but that natural

00:17:57.160 --> 00:17:59.299
selection she went for where she got the two

00:17:59.299 --> 00:18:02.819
count on it it was not smooth at all and it actually

00:18:02.819 --> 00:18:04.859
looked like Tiffy landed in quite an awkward

00:18:04.859 --> 00:18:10.420
position on her neck yeah I think if any match

00:18:10.420 --> 00:18:14.339
was to demonstrate why Charlotte Flair should

00:18:14.339 --> 00:18:18.619
ride off into the sunset on whatever new 20 -something

00:18:18.619 --> 00:18:21.180
boy toy she wants to sort of muck in about with.

00:18:21.940 --> 00:18:26.700
It was that match. For her in -ring career, yes.

00:18:27.059 --> 00:18:29.980
One thing that I will say I think Charlotte would

00:18:29.980 --> 00:18:34.960
be very good at would be a manager role. The

00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:40.720
talent that she has within sort of the industry

00:18:40.720 --> 00:18:42.720
and let's face it if she didn't have some sort

00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:44.559
of talent she wouldn't be the most decorated

00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:48.259
female superstar. And I mean, yes, some of that

00:18:48.259 --> 00:18:50.339
flair comes from, some of that talent comes from

00:18:50.339 --> 00:18:54.779
the name, I'm sure, but I'm pretty sure if you

00:18:54.779 --> 00:18:58.740
gave her someone like, I don't know, one of the

00:18:58.740 --> 00:19:02.039
evolve women or one of the new women coming into

00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:04.740
NXT and gave her an opportunity to run management

00:19:04.740 --> 00:19:07.160
for a little while, I think she'd do really,

00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:09.539
really well with it, you know, and she'd probably

00:19:09.539 --> 00:19:14.799
be able to help some younger superstars do incredibly

00:19:14.799 --> 00:19:19.980
well. You know what I can sort of see what you're

00:19:19.980 --> 00:19:22.099
going I can sort of see where you're going with

00:19:22.099 --> 00:19:26.240
it and I can't disagree with you to a certain

00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:32.180
extent because I don't feel that we've seen enough

00:19:32.180 --> 00:19:38.500
of Charlotte Flair's nurturing side in recent

00:19:38.500 --> 00:19:41.980
years to know if she's going to be a good manager

00:19:41.980 --> 00:19:47.329
or not She's got all the potential for it. Tough

00:19:47.329 --> 00:19:51.190
love sometimes works better than a nurture. Especially

00:19:51.190 --> 00:19:56.990
if you get someone the right person. But a manager

00:19:56.990 --> 00:20:03.750
to me has to be in some ways selfless in respect

00:20:03.750 --> 00:20:07.289
of the team that they're managing. Yes. And Charlotte

00:20:07.289 --> 00:20:10.009
Flair is probably the most selfish woman I think

00:20:10.009 --> 00:20:15.000
we've ever met. That is very, very true. She

00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:18.859
doesn't end up being selfish for too much within

00:20:18.859 --> 00:20:24.259
this match because at the end of this, Tiffy

00:20:24.259 --> 00:20:29.019
lays down a whooping on the Charlotte Flair on

00:20:29.019 --> 00:20:32.000
the top turnbuckle. She does end up eating a

00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:35.859
face buster, as I said, and a very poor natural

00:20:35.859 --> 00:20:39.519
selection from Charlotte Flair for a two count.

00:20:40.359 --> 00:20:43.420
Charlotte Flair then decides that the pin is

00:20:43.420 --> 00:20:45.799
not the way forward. She is gonna make Tiffy

00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:51.480
tap and goes for a figure four submission hold,

00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:57.380
but Tiffy ends up rolling through and rolling

00:20:57.380 --> 00:20:59.579
up Charlotte Flair, and then Charlotte Flair

00:20:59.579 --> 00:21:02.819
rolls through a second time to get a two count

00:21:02.819 --> 00:21:08.359
on Tiffy. Tiffy then pops an Alabama Slammer.

00:21:08.569 --> 00:21:13.990
Charlotte Flair into the turnbuckle which basically

00:21:13.990 --> 00:21:17.309
put Charlotte Flair on her ass which I'm not

00:21:17.309 --> 00:21:20.190
gonna lie probably would to me as well if my

00:21:20.190 --> 00:21:24.069
massive nose didn't take the impact for me. We

00:21:24.069 --> 00:21:27.210
then see Tiffy hoist Charlotte up onto her shoulders

00:21:27.210 --> 00:21:30.809
for a rolling senton and then goes climbing up

00:21:30.809 --> 00:21:36.089
top for the prettiest moonsault which she hits

00:21:36.089 --> 00:21:41.359
perfectly. uh for the one two three for tiffy

00:21:41.359 --> 00:21:48.279
stratton to retain uh wwe women's title and i'm

00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:51.759
not gonna lie i have not partied so much either

00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:54.980
a wrestling event since jay uso beat gunther

00:21:54.980 --> 00:21:57.740
at the start of the uh the start of the night

00:21:57.740 --> 00:22:00.500
i was so ecstatic to see the look on charlotte's

00:22:00.500 --> 00:22:02.859
face because it was just pure disappointment

00:22:02.859 --> 00:22:07.599
like what I personally feel that by the look

00:22:07.599 --> 00:22:10.119
on Charlotte's face I feel she was told she was

00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:12.759
gonna win this match and they changed it at the

00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:14.700
last minute when they realized that she didn't

00:22:14.700 --> 00:22:17.700
have the crowd Tiffy did and by changing that

00:22:17.700 --> 00:22:20.980
result Was gonna cause a lot more damage because

00:22:20.980 --> 00:22:24.279
Tiffy was more over than they realized I think

00:22:24.279 --> 00:22:25.819
Charlotte was promised that she was gonna get

00:22:25.819 --> 00:22:27.720
that win and that title run and they swapped

00:22:27.720 --> 00:22:31.079
it out on her I'm gonna be honest with you and

00:22:31.079 --> 00:22:34.119
say that I don't think that's the case I think

00:22:34.119 --> 00:22:36.180
Charlotte Flair knew she was going in there to

00:22:36.180 --> 00:22:40.740
lose. Because with every great respect, she never

00:22:40.740 --> 00:22:45.559
had the crowd. No, she didn't. She had a reasonably

00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:47.880
big pop when she came out at the Royal Rumble.

00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:52.460
After the Royal Rumble, every last crowd has

00:22:52.460 --> 00:22:56.279
hated her. Yeah. They have food, they have taunted,

00:22:56.619 --> 00:23:00.660
they have, yeah, it's been brutal to be Charlotte

00:23:00.660 --> 00:23:03.910
Flair. in front of a WWE crowd at the moment.

00:23:06.910 --> 00:23:10.869
I mean, I'm definitely glad that Tiffy retained

00:23:10.869 --> 00:23:14.349
him. For Tiffy to get a name like Charlotte Flair

00:23:14.349 --> 00:23:20.230
on her resume is a huge, huge thing for Tiffy

00:23:20.230 --> 00:23:23.630
Stratton. So, yeah, well done Tiffy on that retention.

00:23:25.670 --> 00:23:28.509
Yeah. And do you know what? I think Tiffy showed

00:23:28.509 --> 00:23:31.960
the war wounds of this match. because i'm sure

00:23:31.960 --> 00:23:34.359
she chipped a tooth in this match because when

00:23:34.359 --> 00:23:37.059
she got out of the ring it looked like she chipped

00:23:37.059 --> 00:23:41.180
a tooth i had to go back and i had to go back

00:23:41.180 --> 00:23:44.599
a few like about 20 seconds, about two or three

00:23:44.599 --> 00:23:48.059
times. But I literally noted down in my notes

00:23:48.059 --> 00:23:51.859
here to say that she, that she fucking chipped

00:23:51.859 --> 00:23:54.259
a tooth. I'm convinced she did. I'm convinced

00:23:54.259 --> 00:23:57.660
it was one of her front teeth. It is. But when

00:23:57.660 --> 00:24:01.160
you go back to see her in the interview later

00:24:01.160 --> 00:24:06.680
on, there's like a, in the post show, they did

00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:11.240
a whole set of press interviews and Tiffy's teeth.

00:24:12.489 --> 00:24:16.869
were fine now whether she actually did break

00:24:16.869 --> 00:24:20.190
one and she's got like a set of clippings so

00:24:20.190 --> 00:24:22.210
she can then go right i need to go and see a

00:24:22.210 --> 00:24:25.369
dentist and get the shit sorted cut my tooth

00:24:25.369 --> 00:24:29.130
motherfucker but yeah um no i was positive she'd

00:24:29.130 --> 00:24:31.109
done she'd done some damage in that match but

00:24:31.109 --> 00:24:36.009
it turns out she hadn't right yeah i was i was

00:24:36.009 --> 00:24:37.910
fully convinced that she'd chipped a tooth i'm

00:24:37.910 --> 00:24:41.210
not gonna lie it certainly was right With that

00:24:41.210 --> 00:24:44.390
one, we are gonna move on to our next segment.

00:24:46.410 --> 00:24:53.269
So we will be with you in one second. Go. We

00:24:53.269 --> 00:24:59.190
jump into our last segment before our main event

00:24:59.190 --> 00:25:04.900
into a Hall of Fame recap. of which we see the

00:25:04.900 --> 00:25:10.960
class of 2025 stand atop of the entrance ramp.

00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:16.259
That being Stone Cold, Steve Austin and Bret

00:25:16.259 --> 00:25:22.920
Hart for their match from WrestleMania 13. They

00:25:22.920 --> 00:25:27.539
were inducted by CM Punk. The natural disasters,

00:25:27.859 --> 00:25:32.019
which were earthquake and typhoon. Well, we only

00:25:32.019 --> 00:25:34.240
saw Earthquake. Yeah, Typhoon unfortunately.

00:25:34.819 --> 00:25:38.440
No, no, wrong way. We saw one of them because

00:25:38.440 --> 00:25:41.500
one of them unfortunately passed away. We saw

00:25:41.500 --> 00:25:45.799
Typhoon because Earthquake died June 7th of 2006.

00:25:47.700 --> 00:25:50.859
He did. I don't know. I don't know who inducted

00:25:50.859 --> 00:25:53.819
the natural disasters, unfortunately. Yeah, so

00:25:53.819 --> 00:25:57.779
we did the Hall of Fame episode prior to the

00:25:57.779 --> 00:26:01.750
Hall of Fame being done. purely for the fact

00:26:01.750 --> 00:26:04.450
that we knew that this week was going to be a

00:26:04.450 --> 00:26:07.609
very busy week for us and adding an extra episode

00:26:07.609 --> 00:26:12.470
into it in the time period we had was just asking

00:26:12.470 --> 00:26:15.049
a little bit too much for ourselves. So Adam

00:26:15.049 --> 00:26:19.549
did a brilliant Hall of Fame episode on a pre

00:26:19.549 --> 00:26:23.349
-release. If you haven't listened to that, it's

00:26:23.349 --> 00:26:27.150
the finishes and factions does Hall of Fame class

00:26:27.150 --> 00:26:30.839
of 2025. go and check that one out it was a great

00:26:30.839 --> 00:26:33.799
episode i thoroughly enjoyed listening to it

00:26:33.799 --> 00:26:36.220
listening to it you know what i enjoyed making

00:26:36.220 --> 00:26:39.319
it it was it was a good it was a very different

00:26:39.319 --> 00:26:43.420
challenge to doing one of these episodes which

00:26:43.950 --> 00:26:46.990
yeah they were reviewing content that's already

00:26:46.990 --> 00:26:49.809
been out this was something original that I could

00:26:49.809 --> 00:26:52.490
really get my sort of teeth into but at this

00:26:52.490 --> 00:26:56.089
point it was when I recorded it nobody knew we

00:26:56.089 --> 00:26:59.970
had I had suspicions who would induct who I didn't

00:26:59.970 --> 00:27:02.250
know CM Punk was going to be inducted in the

00:27:02.250 --> 00:27:08.369
first match to be inducted into the Hall of Fame

00:27:08.369 --> 00:27:12.119
that one I could never have called it but Yeah,

00:27:12.740 --> 00:27:16.259
Michelle McCall was inducted by her husband,

00:27:17.380 --> 00:27:24.039
Mr The Undertaker. Diamond Dallas Page, DDP,

00:27:24.400 --> 00:27:27.759
inducted Lex Luger. I forgot about Lex Luger.

00:27:27.960 --> 00:27:29.619
He's not in my notes. I was sat there going,

00:27:29.700 --> 00:27:31.579
it looks a little bit light. Who have I forgotten?

00:27:31.980 --> 00:27:34.559
Yes, Lex Luger. He stood up on stage as well,

00:27:34.640 --> 00:27:37.319
didn't he? To receive his award. He did. he did

00:27:37.319 --> 00:27:40.099
he came out in a wheelchair i will be honest

00:27:40.099 --> 00:27:43.720
i genuinely thought i hoped that he would try

00:27:43.720 --> 00:27:47.819
and do the entire thing walking but do you know

00:27:47.819 --> 00:27:52.500
what he's he had a phenomenal career um he's

00:27:52.500 --> 00:27:55.160
now suffering the he's now suffering the fruits

00:27:55.160 --> 00:27:58.640
of that labor to a certain extent and isn't he

00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:02.400
the man that body slammed um andre the giant

00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:12.569
no He body slammed Yokozuna on the USS Defiant

00:28:12.569 --> 00:28:17.849
as part of a challenge. I think it was a great

00:28:17.849 --> 00:28:22.670
American bash. I remember distinctly mentioning

00:28:22.670 --> 00:28:26.769
this in the special episode I did on the Hall

00:28:26.769 --> 00:28:30.990
of Fame inductees and I mean the only other one

00:28:30.990 --> 00:28:34.839
we haven't talked about was The man himself the

00:28:34.839 --> 00:28:40.339
game the cerebral assassin was inducted by None

00:28:40.339 --> 00:28:43.619
other than Shawn Michaels himself who from what

00:28:43.619 --> 00:28:47.019
I understand I didn't watch I haven't still haven't

00:28:47.019 --> 00:28:50.099
watched the Hall of Fame ceremony but from what

00:28:50.099 --> 00:28:53.099
I understand Shawn Michaels entire introduction

00:28:53.099 --> 00:28:57.480
of or trying entire induction speech was basically

00:28:57.480 --> 00:29:02.549
ragging on Hunter for about 10 15 maybe 20 minutes

00:29:02.549 --> 00:29:06.390
of which I've seen clips of it and He's like

00:29:06.390 --> 00:29:08.930
he's one of the only guys that seems to that

00:29:08.930 --> 00:29:11.730
no matter how many times I tell him Stop emailing

00:29:11.730 --> 00:29:14.109
me at one in the morning. He continues to email

00:29:14.109 --> 00:29:18.029
one in the morning I mean what I found funny

00:29:18.029 --> 00:29:21.589
is Triple H is the guy that told Rick Flair that

00:29:21.589 --> 00:29:24.930
he needed to wrap up his in Hall of Fame induction

00:29:24.930 --> 00:29:28.549
speech And yet Triple H took an hour to induct

00:29:28.549 --> 00:29:31.470
himself and everyone else into the Hall of Fame,

00:29:31.849 --> 00:29:34.990
just on his own. Yeah, but there's only one person

00:29:34.990 --> 00:29:38.829
that sits above fucking Triple H in WWE and that's

00:29:38.829 --> 00:29:42.450
Nick Khan. Yeah, that is very true. That is very

00:29:42.450 --> 00:29:49.690
true. We are then treated to a VT for our next

00:29:49.690 --> 00:29:55.269
TLE after WrestleMania. We are of course talking

00:29:55.269 --> 00:30:02.950
about backlash, yes. I'm looking forward to this

00:30:02.950 --> 00:30:05.869
because you always get the this is basically

00:30:05.869 --> 00:30:08.309
a pay -per -view of the rematch clauses from

00:30:08.309 --> 00:30:14.750
WrestleMania normally Pardon me So backlash will

00:30:14.750 --> 00:30:19.369
be taking place on the 10th of May so we don't

00:30:19.369 --> 00:30:23.279
have a long time to wait for backlash to swing

00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:26.000
its way around and it will take place from st

00:30:26.000 --> 00:30:30.079
louis missouri i know which did you is the hometown

00:30:30.079 --> 00:30:34.500
of uh of a certain superstar that we will be

00:30:34.500 --> 00:30:40.160
seeing on night two of wrestlemania in his open

00:30:40.160 --> 00:30:44.500
challenge match yes st louis missouri is the

00:30:44.500 --> 00:30:49.789
hometown of the viper randy orton so It would

00:30:49.789 --> 00:30:53.890
only be fitting that he has a match at Backlash,

00:30:53.910 --> 00:30:58.230
but who is going to receive the three most dangerous

00:30:58.230 --> 00:31:00.930
letters in sports entertainment at Backlash?

00:31:01.230 --> 00:31:07.970
The RKO? Yeah, well, we're going to have to wait

00:31:07.970 --> 00:31:11.569
for the next episode to come out for that one

00:31:11.569 --> 00:31:16.259
to go down. Instead, we will now turn our attention

00:31:16.259 --> 00:31:20.680
to the main event of the evening. I'm so glad

00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:23.140
your neighbours are used to you doing that, because

00:31:23.140 --> 00:31:25.059
if I pulled that one out, my wife would have

00:31:25.059 --> 00:31:28.440
just jumped out of her skitties and slapped me.

00:31:30.440 --> 00:31:33.579
100%. If you don't jump scare my wife, right?

00:31:35.190 --> 00:31:39.809
But this is the men's triple threat match and

00:31:39.809 --> 00:31:42.609
I mean among other things it's been billed as

00:31:42.609 --> 00:31:45.529
the winner of this basically defines the future

00:31:45.529 --> 00:31:49.890
of the future of WWE Let's face it the winner

00:31:49.890 --> 00:31:55.329
of this match gets Paul Heyman That is basically

00:31:55.329 --> 00:31:59.190
you have been given the keys to the mansion when

00:31:59.190 --> 00:32:03.160
you've got that guy sat in your back pocket You

00:32:03.160 --> 00:32:06.839
look at what he has done with Roman Reigns over

00:32:06.839 --> 00:32:09.220
with the bloodline and stuff like that the work

00:32:09.220 --> 00:32:14.460
he did with Lesnar it wrote yet his client Barack

00:32:14.460 --> 00:32:19.140
Lesnar and then of course the original Heyman

00:32:19.140 --> 00:32:27.920
guy Mr. CM Punk himself Yeah, this is it and

00:32:27.920 --> 00:32:31.059
well Brock Lesnar is not in this match, or even

00:32:31.059 --> 00:32:34.000
in this company at this present moment in time.

00:32:34.960 --> 00:32:38.279
According to him, he is currently retired. Yeah,

00:32:38.559 --> 00:32:41.140
he said that before though, that's the thing.

00:32:42.259 --> 00:32:44.420
Every wrestler needs a paycheck according to

00:32:44.420 --> 00:32:51.299
John Cena. They do. It's as simple as that. Now,

00:32:51.440 --> 00:32:54.680
Seth Rollins is the first entrant into this match,

00:32:55.160 --> 00:32:58.089
first one to come out. Do you know what? His

00:32:58.089 --> 00:33:01.029
entrance was probably the most interesting entrance

00:33:01.029 --> 00:33:05.250
of all of them. In Night 1 at the very least.

00:33:05.670 --> 00:33:09.230
Because he came out, what I can only describe

00:33:09.230 --> 00:33:16.309
as an oversized black pillowcase. And he was

00:33:16.309 --> 00:33:20.009
armed with a flamethrower. Right, out of all

00:33:20.009 --> 00:33:22.529
the things that you could give Seth Rollins,

00:33:22.670 --> 00:33:27.529
the actual tools to burn it down? were probably

00:33:27.529 --> 00:33:32.430
not the best things to give this man, but Seth

00:33:32.430 --> 00:33:39.430
Rollins got Well Let's give you some statistics

00:33:39.430 --> 00:33:41.309
about Seth Rollins to start off with showing

00:33:41.309 --> 00:33:46.349
so this is Seth Rollins 12th career WrestleMania

00:33:46.349 --> 00:33:53.289
is seven and six at WrestleMania He competed

00:33:53.289 --> 00:33:59.559
twice in WrestleMania twice So in 2015 and last

00:33:59.559 --> 00:34:04.000
year in 2024 Seth Rollins had double duties.

00:34:05.140 --> 00:34:11.219
He made his WrestleMania debut alongside Roman

00:34:11.219 --> 00:34:16.460
Reigns who's also in this match in 2013 as a

00:34:16.460 --> 00:34:23.099
member of The Shield. And this is his third WrestleMania

00:34:23.099 --> 00:34:27.469
main event. Which for a guy who's been here 12

00:34:27.469 --> 00:34:32.550
times to main event once every four That's not

00:34:32.550 --> 00:34:36.650
bad going considering at no point has Seth Rollins

00:34:36.650 --> 00:34:40.789
been The face that runs the place or the champ

00:34:40.789 --> 00:34:43.849
that runs the camp, you know, he's he has had

00:34:43.849 --> 00:34:46.329
titles Don't get me wrong. He held the Universal

00:34:46.329 --> 00:34:49.170
title for a little while. He's also held the

00:34:49.170 --> 00:34:53.679
world title for a little while but he's never

00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:58.619
been the the massive superstar that actually

00:34:58.619 --> 00:35:04.380
Seth Rollins probably should have been I mean

00:35:04.380 --> 00:35:08.059
not the biggest Seth Rollins fan in the world

00:35:08.059 --> 00:35:11.280
but I do feel that his career could have been

00:35:11.280 --> 00:35:15.420
a lot bigger than what it was but he's already

00:35:15.420 --> 00:35:19.000
had what I would call a Hall of Fame worthy career

00:35:21.500 --> 00:35:25.099
Yeah, this is it. It's I mean all three men in

00:35:25.099 --> 00:35:28.179
this ring all men all three men in this in this

00:35:28.179 --> 00:35:31.719
match are headed on that Hall of Fame at some

00:35:31.719 --> 00:35:34.900
point in the future, so Well, let's not take

00:35:34.900 --> 00:35:36.639
anything away from any of them Well, let's put

00:35:36.639 --> 00:35:39.099
it this way by the time these guys start getting

00:35:39.099 --> 00:35:42.099
inducted into the Hall of Fame WWE would have

00:35:42.099 --> 00:35:44.760
run out of matches to publish so they'll be publishing

00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:47.780
they'll be inducting promos into the Hall of

00:35:47.780 --> 00:35:52.550
Fame and what better promo to induct into the

00:35:52.550 --> 00:35:55.210
Hall of Fame when they get to that point as the

00:35:55.210 --> 00:35:59.710
first one being that inclusive 2013 pipe bomb

00:35:59.710 --> 00:36:04.230
where CM Punk laid everything down to line and

00:36:04.230 --> 00:36:07.150
was eventually cut off when he went to tell a

00:36:07.150 --> 00:36:09.769
personal story about him and Vincent Kennedy

00:36:09.769 --> 00:36:13.130
McMahon that Vince did not want being shared

00:36:13.130 --> 00:36:16.369
with the world and it's funny how Vince has got

00:36:16.369 --> 00:36:18.369
a lot of stories that he doesn't want being shared

00:36:18.369 --> 00:36:22.869
with the world, innit? It is it is but who knows

00:36:22.869 --> 00:36:25.230
they may even start inducting podcasters into

00:36:25.230 --> 00:36:28.429
the Hall of Fame Yeah, we think Pat McAfee might

00:36:28.429 --> 00:36:30.369
be the first ones to go in there, but finishes

00:36:30.369 --> 00:36:33.929
and factions will not be far behind him We'd

00:36:33.929 --> 00:36:37.369
like to think not know what kind of episode number

00:36:37.369 --> 00:36:41.849
will be on at that point to be fair Well, I think

00:36:41.849 --> 00:36:44.289
I worked this one out earlier this one will be

00:36:44.289 --> 00:36:49.989
a season one episode 58 and then By the time

00:36:49.989 --> 00:36:53.789
we've finished WrestleMania, night two will be

00:36:53.789 --> 00:37:00.070
59 slash 60, which means our coverage of this

00:37:00.070 --> 00:37:03.349
season of WrestleMania will have finished and

00:37:03.349 --> 00:37:08.989
we will start season two, episode one with our

00:37:08.989 --> 00:37:14.150
coverage of Raw after WrestleMania. So yeah,

00:37:14.349 --> 00:37:17.369
we are making it into our second season, ladies

00:37:17.369 --> 00:37:19.789
and gentlemen. or something that was only going

00:37:19.789 --> 00:37:22.090
to last a few weeks before one of us went, dude,

00:37:22.090 --> 00:37:24.590
I haven't got the time for this. We've laughed

00:37:24.590 --> 00:37:28.869
in four months almost. Four full months. We've

00:37:28.869 --> 00:37:30.789
been killing it. Don't get me wrong. We've gotten

00:37:30.789 --> 00:37:34.570
close to saying, no, no, I can't do it anymore.

00:37:34.969 --> 00:37:37.429
But we've not made it there just yet. I only

00:37:37.429 --> 00:37:40.130
got close with NXT. But yeah, no, one thing we've

00:37:40.130 --> 00:37:42.429
not got close to getting fed up of is this main

00:37:42.429 --> 00:37:45.849
event because we have not even got there. Seth

00:37:45.849 --> 00:37:49.670
Rollins. for the first time ever i believe in

00:37:49.670 --> 00:37:52.989
a wrestlemania entrance got himself a second

00:37:52.989 --> 00:37:57.230
entrance now so after he finished with his flamethrower

00:37:57.230 --> 00:37:59.590
and all the lights went out i'm not gonna lie

00:37:59.590 --> 00:38:03.889
i had a slight feeling we were gonna get uh an

00:38:03.889 --> 00:38:07.909
appearance from a certain hall of famer who was

00:38:07.909 --> 00:38:11.579
inducting their wife into the Hall of Fame last

00:38:11.579 --> 00:38:14.639
night I thought for some reason Undertaker may

00:38:14.639 --> 00:38:17.980
just make a WrestleMania appearance at that point

00:38:17.980 --> 00:38:21.639
but no Seth Rollins removed the flamethrower

00:38:21.639 --> 00:38:25.139
and the bin bag or the rather large black pillowcases

00:38:25.139 --> 00:38:29.320
Adam liked to describe it and made a second entrance

00:38:29.320 --> 00:38:35.519
as basically God with a all -white outfit on

00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:38.500
or all -white suit to walk to the ring -in. Probably

00:38:38.500 --> 00:38:40.760
the most normal thing we've seen Seth Rollins

00:38:40.760 --> 00:38:46.199
wear in a while. Yeah, I mean it was a very angelic

00:38:46.199 --> 00:38:49.619
look and sort of very on -brand for Seth Rollins

00:38:49.619 --> 00:38:56.639
really. Now next we had the emergence of the

00:38:56.639 --> 00:39:01.019
tribal chief as Las Vegas put their wands up

00:39:01.019 --> 00:39:05.269
to the sky to acknowledge him and Do you know

00:39:05.269 --> 00:39:08.369
what? In comparison to what Seth Rollins entrance

00:39:08.369 --> 00:39:11.690
was, I found this to be like really simplistic

00:39:11.690 --> 00:39:15.489
and despite the fact that this is like his 10th

00:39:15.489 --> 00:39:20.309
appearance at WrestleMania with a record of nine

00:39:20.309 --> 00:39:27.489
to three. It was his 10th time main eventing

00:39:27.489 --> 00:39:30.630
at WrestleMania. He has a record of nine and

00:39:30.630 --> 00:39:35.500
three. Did you know he also has the fifth most

00:39:35.500 --> 00:39:41.119
wins at WrestleMania as well? There are only

00:39:41.119 --> 00:39:45.300
four people above him in terms of wins at WrestleMania.

00:39:46.340 --> 00:39:50.159
Would you like to know who they are, Adam? I

00:39:50.159 --> 00:39:52.820
mean, by all means. I can see your notes, so

00:39:52.820 --> 00:39:54.980
I already know who you're going to say. Right,

00:39:55.260 --> 00:39:58.820
for those of us who can't see what I've got written.

00:39:59.239 --> 00:40:03.699
The four people who have won more WrestleMania

00:40:03.699 --> 00:40:08.500
matches than Roman Reigns are the Deadman, The

00:40:08.500 --> 00:40:12.659
Undertaker, the man who made events tomorrow

00:40:12.659 --> 00:40:19.780
night, John Cena, the Rated R Superstar Edge,

00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:25.519
and the man who was the face of the class of

00:40:25.519 --> 00:40:32.900
2025. Mr. Triple H himself, Paul Levesque. So

00:40:32.900 --> 00:40:36.920
he's got, that's not a bad company. And to be

00:40:36.920 --> 00:40:39.079
fair, when you think you're missing the likes

00:40:39.079 --> 00:40:43.639
of Stone Cold and Kurt Angle and Bret Hart in

00:40:43.639 --> 00:40:47.360
that list, that is a very prestigious club to

00:40:47.360 --> 00:40:50.300
be in. So I would definitely swap himself out

00:40:50.300 --> 00:40:52.539
for this one. The one thing with Roman's entry

00:40:52.539 --> 00:40:55.599
that I would not change, What I would change,

00:40:55.699 --> 00:40:58.300
sorry, is the fact that he didn't find someone

00:40:58.300 --> 00:41:02.539
to hand the Ulla Fala off to when he got to the

00:41:02.539 --> 00:41:07.199
ring. Obviously since the bloodline has collapsed,

00:41:07.480 --> 00:41:12.079
it is no longer a relevant thing. There is, and

00:41:12.079 --> 00:41:16.340
with Paul Heyman being in the corner of Hillbrooks

00:41:16.340 --> 00:41:20.579
tonight, he had no one to hand it off to. No

00:41:20.579 --> 00:41:27.639
Usos, no wise man. no honorary oofs to hand that

00:41:27.639 --> 00:41:29.980
ulefala off to and he just placed it in his corner

00:41:29.980 --> 00:41:32.519
of the ring very respectfully and went about

00:41:32.519 --> 00:41:36.239
his business after giving Paul Heyman some dirty

00:41:36.239 --> 00:41:39.739
eyes. Well Paul Heyman hadn't even made it into

00:41:39.739 --> 00:41:42.960
the ring at this point because CM Punk is the

00:41:42.960 --> 00:41:45.420
last person to come into the ring. The one thing

00:41:45.420 --> 00:41:48.079
I will say before we get to CM Punk's entrance

00:41:48.079 --> 00:41:58.239
and all of his statistics is that The The Screens

00:41:58.239 --> 00:42:01.460
so they had like I refer to them as leaf screens

00:42:01.460 --> 00:42:04.500
So they had like these stray screens above the

00:42:04.500 --> 00:42:07.099
above the entrance ramp over the hanging down

00:42:07.099 --> 00:42:10.260
with the for the majority of WrestleMania were

00:42:10.260 --> 00:42:14.800
showing WrestleMania superstars the likes of

00:42:14.800 --> 00:42:20.000
EO Sky Bianca Belair John Cena Cody Rhodes Roman

00:42:20.000 --> 00:42:23.030
Reigns during Roman Reign's entrance, however,

00:42:23.170 --> 00:42:27.429
all of those turned to, well, bloodline members.

00:42:28.329 --> 00:42:32.230
They were Samoan dynasty members. People like

00:42:32.230 --> 00:42:40.289
Rikishi, the wild Samoans. Umaga. Yeah, Umaga.

00:42:41.429 --> 00:42:45.730
So many others that were included in on those

00:42:45.730 --> 00:42:49.699
screens. I like the fact that they did that.

00:42:49.699 --> 00:42:52.840
Again, they kept Roman Reigns' simplistic, it

00:42:52.840 --> 00:42:56.699
didn't have to be overly elaborate for it to

00:42:56.699 --> 00:43:00.099
be effective, essentially. No, it was probably

00:43:00.099 --> 00:43:02.079
one of the better entrances of the night, to

00:43:02.079 --> 00:43:04.639
be fair. I mean, I really enjoyed Roman's entrance.

00:43:05.159 --> 00:43:08.559
I will say, I have seen a clip on social media

00:43:08.559 --> 00:43:11.059
since, I don't know if you've seen it, of Jacob

00:43:11.059 --> 00:43:16.079
Fatou playing the piano in a public place. I

00:43:16.079 --> 00:43:19.590
don't know where it was. And he's playing Roman's

00:43:19.590 --> 00:43:24.349
entry music on the piano. It's really, really

00:43:24.349 --> 00:43:27.369
cool. If I find it on social media next, I'll

00:43:27.369 --> 00:43:29.010
tag you in it. But yeah, it was a really cool

00:43:29.010 --> 00:43:31.869
clip of Jacob Fatu playing Roman's entry music

00:43:31.869 --> 00:43:39.130
on a piano, like a grand piano. Or even better,

00:43:39.429 --> 00:43:42.250
if anybody listening to this finds it, especially

00:43:42.250 --> 00:43:45.429
finds it on TikTok, send it to our TikTok handle.

00:43:46.070 --> 00:43:53.469
Yeah, tag us in it. It is at FinnAndFanPod. We've

00:43:53.469 --> 00:43:57.550
actually just today hit 50 followers on the TikTok

00:43:57.550 --> 00:44:04.130
as well, so thank you all for that. 100%. Now,

00:44:04.769 --> 00:44:08.110
coming back around to the last entrance. Now,

00:44:09.250 --> 00:44:12.150
this was one of my favourite entrances just because

00:44:12.150 --> 00:44:15.869
honestly, I enjoy the song no matter who it represents.

00:44:16.239 --> 00:44:23.059
The song by Living Colour is immense. Now, CM

00:44:23.059 --> 00:44:28.679
Punk's entrance, his very first entrance to a

00:44:28.679 --> 00:44:36.280
WrestleMania main event, there's a brief VT before

00:44:36.280 --> 00:44:42.219
he comes out, sort of the history of CM Punk

00:44:42.219 --> 00:44:47.300
and... For the second time in WrestleMania history

00:44:47.300 --> 00:44:52.440
CM Punk has Living Colour perform live to play

00:44:52.440 --> 00:44:56.940
him out. It was quality, I loved it. I mean,

00:44:57.420 --> 00:45:01.400
the last time we saw it was at WrestleMania 29

00:45:01.400 --> 00:45:06.380
in 2013 when CM Punk came out to try to beat

00:45:06.380 --> 00:45:10.280
the streak. That wasn't when he came out on the,

00:45:10.280 --> 00:45:15.059
oh no. That was, ooh. That was a long time ago

00:45:15.059 --> 00:45:18.659
now. I've forgotten Punk had had a... That was

00:45:18.659 --> 00:45:20.679
the reason the shield were bought in, wasn't

00:45:20.679 --> 00:45:24.960
it? To protect Punk from the Undertaker. Something

00:45:24.960 --> 00:45:28.380
like that, because he'd gone about... Part of

00:45:28.380 --> 00:45:31.699
the storyline for that match was that he had

00:45:31.699 --> 00:45:36.659
stolen the urn. Yes. Undertaker's urn. That had...

00:45:36.659 --> 00:45:43.260
Paul Bearer in it. Yep. Only CM Punk could run

00:45:43.260 --> 00:45:46.199
off with something like that piss off the undertaker

00:45:46.199 --> 00:45:50.139
and live to tell the tale Don't get me wrong

00:45:50.139 --> 00:45:52.260
you got his ass kicked in the process, but he

00:45:52.260 --> 00:45:58.500
did live Yeah, it's a case that So from here

00:45:58.500 --> 00:46:02.360
it yeah, so we get as Rich has mentioned a couple

00:46:02.360 --> 00:46:05.519
of times now it is a case that Paul Heyman is

00:46:05.519 --> 00:46:10.280
coming down to the ring with CM Punk and Yeah,

00:46:10.300 --> 00:46:14.360
I think I've got it written down here somewhere

00:46:14.360 --> 00:46:17.719
that Paul Heyman is coming down to the ring staring

00:46:17.719 --> 00:46:20.860
at CM Punk as Paul Heyman has a tendency to do

00:46:20.860 --> 00:46:25.639
with what I can only describe as the look of

00:46:25.639 --> 00:46:30.960
a proud parent. Yes. I mean, Paul Heyman prophesied

00:46:30.960 --> 00:46:33.800
that CM Punk would one day be a WrestleMania

00:46:33.800 --> 00:46:40.050
main eventer before CM Punk left WWE. So I mean

00:46:40.050 --> 00:46:43.190
he can walk in here smuggled anything and go

00:46:43.190 --> 00:46:45.989
you know what actually I told you this was gonna

00:46:45.989 --> 00:46:51.449
happen and a happen it has so Fuck you, and that's

00:46:51.449 --> 00:46:53.469
pretty much what he's doing to Roman with that

00:46:53.469 --> 00:46:59.610
grin to be fair is a big massive fuck you but

00:46:59.610 --> 00:47:02.409
Yeah, as rich alluded to earlier on there was

00:47:02.409 --> 00:47:05.750
a significant moment as Roman Reigns removes

00:47:05.750 --> 00:47:08.840
his olafala which would normally be would have

00:47:08.840 --> 00:47:12.880
been handed off to the wise man himself. And

00:47:12.880 --> 00:47:15.860
he made a very big show of making sure that Paul

00:47:15.860 --> 00:47:18.739
Heyman saw that he wasn't handing the Ulefala

00:47:18.739 --> 00:47:21.280
off to anybody or anything along those lines.

00:47:21.500 --> 00:47:29.019
It was being slung in the corner along with before

00:47:29.019 --> 00:47:34.840
the match bell rings for this match to begin

00:47:34.840 --> 00:47:42.440
now. There was a small standoff to at the beginning

00:47:42.440 --> 00:47:48.099
of the match and Again CM Punk we know he plays

00:47:48.099 --> 00:47:50.400
mind games. He's played mind games since day

00:47:50.400 --> 00:47:54.980
one This match was no different. It never was

00:47:54.980 --> 00:47:58.820
going to be to be fair CM Punk ducks out of the

00:47:58.820 --> 00:48:01.159
ring to basically go and make a very big show

00:48:01.159 --> 00:48:04.340
of going to consult the wise man If I thought

00:48:04.340 --> 00:48:07.000
that was brilliant he has to walk behind Roman

00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:09.780
to do it and Roman is staring him out Like I'm

00:48:09.780 --> 00:48:12.559
gonna fuck you up bitch. What do you think you're

00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:19.800
doing? Yeah was playing games Yeah, 100 % Seth

00:48:19.800 --> 00:48:23.559
then tries What I deemed as a last -ditch attempt

00:48:23.559 --> 00:48:27.440
to get reigns on side, but Romans already said

00:48:27.440 --> 00:48:30.159
he doesn't trust Seth and after what happened

00:48:30.159 --> 00:48:33.530
with with the shield why would he trust him let's

00:48:33.530 --> 00:48:37.389
face it um and roman's eating a steel chair from

00:48:37.389 --> 00:48:44.030
seth a few too many times yeah um but roman is

00:48:44.030 --> 00:48:48.610
the one to land the first punch on seth and yeah

00:48:48.610 --> 00:48:54.030
it's uh it's evident to see there's so much personally

00:48:54.030 --> 00:48:57.449
sure that was a punch or just an open palm slap

00:48:57.449 --> 00:49:02.630
because it had a hell of a ring to it It's ringing

00:49:02.630 --> 00:49:04.809
off Seth Rollins his face. I mean, I'm not sure

00:49:04.809 --> 00:49:07.769
what you expected No, no, I did enjoy it, but

00:49:07.769 --> 00:49:10.909
it was a hell of a noise. It came with it To

00:49:10.909 --> 00:49:13.610
have been sat there, especially in the first

00:49:13.610 --> 00:49:17.010
few rows to have heard that noise You'd get goosebumps

00:49:17.010 --> 00:49:23.170
in an erection straight away wouldn't you? Hell

00:49:23.170 --> 00:49:26.030
of a slap Think you're giving a little bit too

00:49:26.030 --> 00:49:29.630
much about yourself You feel the WrestleMania

00:49:29.630 --> 00:49:37.739
moment you can get away with that yeah I mean

00:49:37.739 --> 00:49:39.800
this match doesn't get contained to the ring

00:49:39.800 --> 00:49:41.679
and the outside of the ring it ends up spilling

00:49:41.679 --> 00:49:47.039
out into the arena well CM Punk and Seth Rollins

00:49:47.039 --> 00:49:50.079
end up spilling out into the wider arena yeah

00:49:50.079 --> 00:49:53.599
they go for a nice little jolly around the VIP

00:49:53.599 --> 00:49:56.300
section don't they just to give the the fans

00:49:56.300 --> 00:49:59.230
a little bit extra of what they paid for Oh,

00:49:59.610 --> 00:50:03.750
100%. We have chairs, trash cans being used to

00:50:03.750 --> 00:50:07.829
cause as much physical pain as humanly possible.

00:50:08.110 --> 00:50:11.949
Do I believe at one point that CM Punk suplexed

00:50:11.949 --> 00:50:16.070
Seth Rollins onto a trash can under the concrete

00:50:16.070 --> 00:50:22.909
as well? Yeah, he suplexed Seth Rollins onto

00:50:22.909 --> 00:50:28.480
a Don Mysterio. You mean he did it onto Logan

00:50:28.480 --> 00:50:44.780
Paul But yeah, it's a case that I Mean Roman

00:50:44.780 --> 00:50:46.940
Reigns does eventually get back into this and

00:50:46.940 --> 00:50:50.219
sort of brings the fight back to ringside The

00:50:50.219 --> 00:50:54.170
guy launches himself over the barricade and takes

00:50:54.170 --> 00:50:57.849
out both Seth Rollins and CM Punk with one move

00:50:57.849 --> 00:51:01.750
and then comes back and clears the Spanish announce

00:51:01.750 --> 00:51:06.550
desk the 57 inch vertical leap that guy has apparently

00:51:06.550 --> 00:51:09.570
and he completely just made that barrier look

00:51:09.570 --> 00:51:14.070
like he was stepping over a box of matches it

00:51:14.070 --> 00:51:18.809
was a hell of a leap it was and I don't know

00:51:18.809 --> 00:51:22.550
really if we would come to expect anything any

00:51:22.550 --> 00:51:27.469
different of Roman Reigns for that because we've

00:51:27.469 --> 00:51:32.130
seen that man produce some absolutely inexplicable

00:51:32.130 --> 00:51:40.130
feats in the past. Oh of course. And yeah during

00:51:40.130 --> 00:51:44.019
this match I could go through Because with the

00:51:44.019 --> 00:51:45.920
amount of notes I've got here, I've got what

00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:48.940
should be more or less a blow by blow of everything

00:51:48.940 --> 00:51:53.019
that happened. I'm pretty sure I could supply

00:51:53.019 --> 00:51:58.139
WWE with a document that would basically, they

00:51:58.139 --> 00:52:01.320
could give to another set of wrestlers and they

00:52:01.320 --> 00:52:04.380
could reenact the entire WrestleMania weekend.

00:52:05.199 --> 00:52:10.599
Exactly. Yeah. I think between my notes and your

00:52:10.599 --> 00:52:13.320
notes, we probably could supply them with a but

00:52:13.320 --> 00:52:15.920
a pretty much a transcript of at least this match

00:52:15.920 --> 00:52:22.940
um yeah it's uh i mean they each get their opportunity

00:52:22.940 --> 00:52:27.739
to get their shit in uh which we wouldn't expect

00:52:27.739 --> 00:52:30.900
anything any less of three veterans in the industry

00:52:30.900 --> 00:52:35.039
like these three um it is a case that uh everybody

00:52:35.039 --> 00:52:48.619
has to get their shit in. There is one point

00:52:48.619 --> 00:52:53.440
though where you saw that there was just little

00:52:53.440 --> 00:52:57.559
bits that you wouldn't normally expect. So the

00:52:57.559 --> 00:52:59.719
beginning of this match, I say the beginning,

00:52:59.900 --> 00:53:02.840
sorry. My notes are that long, I thought it was

00:53:02.840 --> 00:53:05.239
the beginning. About midway through this match,

00:53:05.519 --> 00:53:09.400
there is a bit where Punk Slams Roman Reigns

00:53:09.400 --> 00:53:14.780
goes up top. Seth Rollins jumps up after him

00:53:14.780 --> 00:53:17.440
And so does Roman and it looks like they're gonna

00:53:17.440 --> 00:53:22.179
do like a double suplex so both of them suplex

00:53:22.179 --> 00:53:26.739
punk off the ropes and then it comes to a point

00:53:26.739 --> 00:53:30.579
where it ends up with punk hitting a double doomsday

00:53:30.579 --> 00:53:36.599
device and Then Roman hitting punk with a Superman

00:53:36.599 --> 00:53:42.840
punch like the level of movement, ability, the

00:53:42.840 --> 00:53:45.900
move set that was being brought into it and the

00:53:45.900 --> 00:53:48.139
combinations that were adding into it, you can

00:53:48.139 --> 00:53:50.780
understand why these three guys are the best

00:53:50.780 --> 00:53:54.880
there is at the moment. Like Seth Rollins claims

00:53:54.880 --> 00:53:58.380
to be a visionary and a revolutionary, those

00:53:58.380 --> 00:54:03.880
claims are very much sanctified by what he has

00:54:03.880 --> 00:54:07.860
done and the things he continues to do in the

00:54:07.860 --> 00:54:13.409
squared circle. Yeah, and again, that's not taking

00:54:13.409 --> 00:54:17.329
anything away from CM Punk or Roman Reigns either

00:54:17.329 --> 00:54:20.489
I mean, I'm not a huge Roman Reigns fan as it

00:54:20.489 --> 00:54:25.849
goes. I just yeah I find Roman very samey samey

00:54:25.849 --> 00:54:29.690
It's also the lots of Superman punches big spear

00:54:29.690 --> 00:54:32.769
few more Superman punches even biggest spear

00:54:32.769 --> 00:54:37.789
one two three Romans retained. I Mean, that's

00:54:37.789 --> 00:54:40.090
not how it went this time because he doesn't

00:54:40.090 --> 00:54:43.119
hold a title But nine times out of ten, Roman's

00:54:43.119 --> 00:54:45.019
matches are all very, very similar and they're

00:54:45.019 --> 00:54:51.719
all very short too. Yeah, he's spent a lot of

00:54:51.719 --> 00:54:56.179
the last few years having matches that are very

00:54:56.179 --> 00:55:00.460
sort of one sided. Yes. A few matches which I

00:55:00.460 --> 00:55:03.219
feel sort of pushed him to a limit of some kind.

00:55:03.579 --> 00:55:07.360
But he's also had protection as well. Yeah. He's

00:55:07.360 --> 00:55:11.489
always had someone else there. This is Roman's

00:55:11.489 --> 00:55:16.449
first match in a long time where he has been

00:55:16.449 --> 00:55:20.730
just Roman. There has been no wise man, no usos,

00:55:22.130 --> 00:55:28.989
no solo, no Fatou, no one. Yeah, it is a case

00:55:28.989 --> 00:55:33.269
that he is completely without any form of help,

00:55:33.309 --> 00:55:37.400
realistically. Yeah, I mean... I don't think

00:55:37.400 --> 00:55:41.179
the help would have helped too much in this situation

00:55:41.179 --> 00:55:47.360
because, well, I mean, everyone gets their moves

00:55:47.360 --> 00:55:51.460
in. You see at one point, Punk Locks and Anaconda

00:55:51.460 --> 00:55:56.519
vice in on Roman Reigns. You know, you see him

00:55:56.519 --> 00:55:59.960
hit a rock bottom on Roman Reigns at one point.

00:56:00.840 --> 00:56:04.380
Seth Rollins gets double buckle bombs in. Punk

00:56:04.380 --> 00:56:06.719
bounced off that buckle bomb like a little bit

00:56:06.719 --> 00:56:08.619
harder than he should have done Maybe he looked

00:56:08.619 --> 00:56:11.960
like that really did generally kind of go. Okay,

00:56:12.260 --> 00:56:14.440
maybe I do need to just stay down for a little

00:56:14.440 --> 00:56:18.019
bit But then shortly afterwards he manages to

00:56:18.019 --> 00:56:22.659
reverse a pedigree attempt Roman spears him and

00:56:22.659 --> 00:56:27.199
And then Seth reverses the spit. This was probably

00:56:27.199 --> 00:56:30.519
one of the moves of the night reversing a full

00:56:30.519 --> 00:56:33.760
spear into a pedigree and then pulling off a

00:56:33.760 --> 00:56:37.679
stomp on top. And then not even covering Roman

00:56:37.679 --> 00:56:42.840
going for the two count on punk. Oh no, he rolls

00:56:42.840 --> 00:56:45.420
punk out so we can get the two count on Roman,

00:56:45.420 --> 00:56:49.900
sorry, but yeah. My fucking notes are difficult

00:56:49.900 --> 00:56:53.539
to read the second time around. But yeah, such

00:56:53.539 --> 00:56:56.440
a combination of moves there. You would not have

00:56:56.440 --> 00:56:59.730
seen when Roman launched into that sphere that

00:56:59.730 --> 00:57:02.170
Seth was going to ride him like a surfboard and

00:57:02.170 --> 00:57:05.550
then turn it into a pedigree. Absolutely phenomenal.

00:57:06.409 --> 00:57:09.030
That's what I'm saying. When was the last time

00:57:09.030 --> 00:57:11.750
we saw something as good as that? That was a

00:57:11.750 --> 00:57:15.469
WrestleMania move that was saved for a WrestleMania

00:57:15.469 --> 00:57:21.869
main event and it made the difference. Oh, 100%.

00:57:21.869 --> 00:57:26.219
One other thing that we don't really see Roman

00:57:26.219 --> 00:57:30.179
Reigns specifically do we said a said a few moments

00:57:30.179 --> 00:57:32.360
ago that a lot of his matches for the last few

00:57:32.360 --> 00:57:35.699
years have been a lot of big hits a lot of Spears

00:57:35.699 --> 00:57:40.619
Superman punches just really really fucking laying

00:57:40.619 --> 00:57:47.880
the big muscly Samoan guy schtick in to get that

00:57:47.880 --> 00:57:54.090
gutted to put that across and We saw Roman using

00:57:54.090 --> 00:58:00.050
submission moves At one point you did lock He

00:58:00.050 --> 00:58:03.849
well at several points he locked standing guillotines

00:58:03.849 --> 00:58:08.889
in on punk punk especially I think punk really

00:58:08.889 --> 00:58:12.429
got Fucking strung out on this match. I'm gonna

00:58:12.429 --> 00:58:15.210
be honest because I feel like he took more punishment

00:58:15.210 --> 00:58:20.420
than the other two did He did to a point especially

00:58:20.420 --> 00:58:24.460
towards the end of the match and after the end

00:58:24.460 --> 00:58:29.179
of the match without giving too much away. Yeah.

00:58:29.820 --> 00:58:32.019
Punk definitely absorbs a lot of punishment.

00:58:33.139 --> 00:58:39.780
It really does and yeah like at one point Reigns

00:58:39.780 --> 00:58:42.880
is locking in this standing guillotine on Punk.

00:58:44.139 --> 00:58:46.960
maintaining eye contact with Paul Heyman on the

00:58:46.960 --> 00:58:50.219
outside. And, bless it, Paul Heyman looks to

00:58:50.219 --> 00:58:52.440
be having some kind of existential crisis on

00:58:52.440 --> 00:58:55.860
the outside of the ring. He does not look to

00:58:55.860 --> 00:58:59.380
be having a good time at all. He's in between

00:58:59.380 --> 00:59:02.780
a rock and a hard place, to be fair, as Paul

00:59:02.780 --> 00:59:05.840
Heyman, because he's kind of been sucker -punched

00:59:05.840 --> 00:59:10.199
into owing everyone favors and then having to

00:59:10.199 --> 00:59:13.570
deliver on them and then... Yeah, I wouldn't

00:59:13.570 --> 00:59:15.650
want to be in Paul Heyman's situation right now.

00:59:15.650 --> 00:59:24.829
I'll put it that way. Yeah, it's... Well, don't

00:59:24.829 --> 00:59:27.869
want to be in Paul Heyman's situation just now.

00:59:29.050 --> 00:59:37.190
No. It takes paycheck. Oh, 100%. But yeah, it

00:59:37.190 --> 00:59:44.389
is a case that... Oh, where did I get to? Standing

00:59:44.389 --> 00:59:47.750
guillotine. We were just getting to the point

00:59:47.750 --> 00:59:51.929
where... Punk slips the hold into a pin for a

00:59:51.929 --> 00:59:55.150
two count. Punk maintains the pressure with another

00:59:55.150 --> 00:59:58.989
anacond device. I mean, while he's got his own

00:59:58.989 --> 01:00:01.409
submission maneuver, Punk is not normally one

01:00:01.409 --> 01:00:04.789
to go for submission moves. He's another one

01:00:04.789 --> 01:00:08.280
that is... more of a striker than a technical

01:00:08.280 --> 01:00:11.480
superstar. But yeah he does have that MMA background

01:00:11.480 --> 01:00:14.840
so he can go technical if he needs to. One thing

01:00:14.840 --> 01:00:18.239
I've made a note of here which I thought was

01:00:18.239 --> 01:00:23.420
brilliant is when Roman and Seth tricked us into

01:00:23.420 --> 01:00:28.559
thinking that maybe for one last time we were

01:00:28.559 --> 01:00:32.360
going to see that shield like power bomb -esque

01:00:32.360 --> 01:00:36.739
with both Rollins and Reigns teaming up to put

01:00:36.739 --> 01:00:42.059
Punk through the announce table and then the

01:00:42.059 --> 01:00:49.280
absolute noise of the slap as Roman slapped Rollins

01:00:49.280 --> 01:00:54.480
in the face and then decided that actually Punk

01:00:54.480 --> 01:00:56.739
was going through the announce table instead

01:00:56.739 --> 01:01:01.059
and then Reigns went through the other one. So

01:01:01.059 --> 01:01:04.519
both announce tables got absolutely obliterated

01:01:04.519 --> 01:01:09.780
in this main event to a rather unfortunate level

01:01:09.780 --> 01:01:12.659
because no matter how reinforced they are, and

01:01:12.659 --> 01:01:16.900
we are told an awful lot, they are newly reinforced.

01:01:17.820 --> 01:01:20.780
When the OTC decides that you're going through

01:01:20.780 --> 01:01:24.199
it, guess what's happening? You're going through

01:01:24.199 --> 01:01:31.800
it. Yeah, this is it. I mean anything that the

01:01:31.800 --> 01:01:34.360
OTC decides you're gonna be up you're gonna be

01:01:34.360 --> 01:01:36.300
doing you're going to be doing whether you want

01:01:36.300 --> 01:01:38.880
to or not Yeah, I wouldn't have wanted to have

01:01:38.880 --> 01:01:42.519
gone through that table, but Roman Rollins and

01:01:42.519 --> 01:01:45.119
punk definitely didn't want to be going through

01:01:45.119 --> 01:01:51.179
it and they did Yeah, now this is sort of we're

01:01:51.179 --> 01:01:53.579
starting to start to get towards the end wine

01:01:53.579 --> 01:01:56.139
we're starting to wind the match down a little

01:01:56.139 --> 01:02:00.559
bit now as it goes because Yeah, we've got so

01:02:00.559 --> 01:02:02.960
the anaconda vice I mentioned that punk locked

01:02:02.960 --> 01:02:06.300
in earlier on on Roman Reigns Seth Rollins breaks

01:02:06.300 --> 01:02:12.340
the vice by locking in a sharpshooter on punk

01:02:12.340 --> 01:02:17.940
Reigns then Breaks the sharpshooter by locking

01:02:17.940 --> 01:02:21.039
in a guillotine on Rollins. There is just a huge

01:02:21.039 --> 01:02:25.960
exchange of submission maneuvers and Yeah, it's

01:02:27.849 --> 01:02:31.650
Yeah, that's just so I mean Roland shows an incredible

01:02:31.650 --> 01:02:35.150
strength of trying to lift that of lifting Roman

01:02:35.150 --> 01:02:39.349
Reigns by finding that vertical bass again and

01:02:39.349 --> 01:02:42.929
with a sort of What can only be described as

01:02:42.929 --> 01:02:47.170
an absolutely astounding like suspension suplex

01:02:47.170 --> 01:02:51.230
pin for a two count but Roman continues to have

01:02:51.230 --> 01:02:56.260
that that hold locked in the entire time He doesn't

01:02:56.260 --> 01:03:00.840
let that go and and it's only broken by punk

01:03:00.840 --> 01:03:06.179
coming in and curb stomping. Oh Yeah, there's

01:03:06.179 --> 01:03:09.539
just so much that happens There is always so

01:03:09.539 --> 01:03:11.980
much that happens in these main events though

01:03:11.980 --> 01:03:14.719
But I say that triangle guillotine and Raymond

01:03:14.719 --> 01:03:18.519
locked in is absolutely horrific And at one point

01:03:18.519 --> 01:03:21.780
Seth Rollins actually has to suplex himself out

01:03:21.780 --> 01:03:24.320
of it. But yeah, he still doesn't release that

01:03:24.320 --> 01:03:28.940
grip How can you have a grip locked in that badly

01:03:28.940 --> 01:03:31.639
that you can't even you don't even let go after

01:03:31.639 --> 01:03:34.900
your opponent is basically suplex themselves

01:03:34.900 --> 01:03:39.960
Yeah, it doesn't make any sense does it it doesn't

01:03:39.960 --> 01:03:42.400
I mean obviously that's the whole process the

01:03:42.400 --> 01:03:45.119
three amigos pretty much But yeah, even then

01:03:45.119 --> 01:03:46.820
that still doesn't make sense how you can pull

01:03:46.820 --> 01:03:51.260
off that move and not let go I Suppose that's

01:03:51.260 --> 01:03:53.059
why they're professionals and we don't try this

01:03:53.059 --> 01:03:59.929
at home That and to prevent trips to A &E Yeah

01:03:59.929 --> 01:04:07.570
But yeah, it's a case that these punk rains and

01:04:07.570 --> 01:04:11.190
Rollins throw Everything they've got at each

01:04:11.190 --> 01:04:14.849
other including the kitchen sink I'm pretty sure

01:04:14.849 --> 01:04:18.750
they threw more than the kitchen sink It's yeah

01:04:18.750 --> 01:04:21.030
anything that they could possibly think to throw

01:04:21.030 --> 01:04:24.030
at one another they threw at each other and they

01:04:24.030 --> 01:04:26.920
were Making rods for their own back because as

01:04:26.920 --> 01:04:29.460
soon as one of them got a pinfall It was a case

01:04:29.460 --> 01:04:32.199
that they'd come in and break the pinfall or

01:04:32.199 --> 01:04:34.920
break the submission. I mean at one stage I'm

01:04:34.920 --> 01:04:37.679
pretty sure it was punk who had two different

01:04:37.679 --> 01:04:40.300
submission holds being locked in on him at once

01:04:40.300 --> 01:04:44.639
Yes during this match Yeah, like we said punk

01:04:44.639 --> 01:04:48.199
has definitely been feeling most of the abuse

01:04:48.199 --> 01:04:52.000
in this match, and I don't understand why He's

01:04:52.000 --> 01:04:53.639
one of my favorite superstars. I don't think

01:04:53.639 --> 01:04:56.000
he should be getting abused quite this badly.

01:04:58.039 --> 01:05:00.420
Obviously Seth Rollins doesn't like him quite

01:05:00.420 --> 01:05:03.300
as much as I do, but that's Seth's problem, not

01:05:03.300 --> 01:05:09.780
mine. Now coming to the end of this match as

01:05:09.780 --> 01:05:13.300
it goes, I mean, still so many notes that I'm

01:05:13.300 --> 01:05:15.500
sort of reading through and I'm envisioning it

01:05:15.500 --> 01:05:20.420
all in my head. It's weird. But yeah, it is a

01:05:20.420 --> 01:05:25.190
case that I've got a note here that says, uh,

01:05:25.230 --> 01:05:27.409
punk tries to hit a go to sleep on Reigns as

01:05:27.409 --> 01:05:31.969
Rollin interferes. Seth is put to sleep as punk

01:05:31.969 --> 01:05:35.630
is speared by Reigns and Seth hits the stomp

01:05:35.630 --> 01:05:38.510
to Rome, uh, hits a curb stomp to Roman Reigns

01:05:38.510 --> 01:05:43.130
directly afterwards. He does. It's at this point

01:05:43.130 --> 01:05:48.409
that we have Paul Heyman on the outside who walks

01:05:48.409 --> 01:05:54.150
from CM Punk's corner over to timekeeping and

01:05:54.150 --> 01:05:58.730
grabs a steel chair and walks back towards the

01:05:58.730 --> 01:06:03.230
ring. Now at this point in the ring, closest

01:06:03.230 --> 01:06:07.969
to Heyman, you've got Punk on the left hand side,

01:06:08.889 --> 01:06:13.329
Reigns on the right hand side, and then Rollins

01:06:13.329 --> 01:06:19.260
is in the far corner behind Reigns. Rollins hasn't

01:06:19.260 --> 01:06:23.219
moved. No, Rollins has not moved. He is pretty

01:06:23.219 --> 01:06:32.599
much down, out and dead. Punk and Reigns are

01:06:32.599 --> 01:06:36.179
trying to persuade Heyman that they are the person

01:06:36.179 --> 01:06:42.059
that needs to have the steel chair and with that

01:06:42.059 --> 01:06:44.579
steel chair they can obviously go on and win

01:06:44.579 --> 01:06:47.730
the match. After a little bit of toing and throwing

01:06:47.730 --> 01:06:50.929
Paul Heyman decides that it's going in the direction

01:06:50.929 --> 01:06:55.889
of CM Punk So he throws it to Punk Punk picks

01:06:55.889 --> 01:07:00.210
it up and Heyman climbs in the ring as Punk then

01:07:00.210 --> 01:07:06.030
goes to smash Roman Reigns in the in the back

01:07:06.030 --> 01:07:10.409
with it Paul Heyman low blows in CM Punk takes

01:07:10.409 --> 01:07:16.940
one to the second city scrotum and We end up

01:07:16.940 --> 01:07:20.360
with him dropping the chair Roman looking rather

01:07:20.360 --> 01:07:25.199
shocked rather pleased and We believe that the

01:07:25.199 --> 01:07:30.300
heist of the century 2 .0 could be on the way

01:07:30.300 --> 01:07:35.320
as As Roman picks up the steel chair now Adams

01:07:35.320 --> 01:07:38.500
Roman is handed the chair at this point Well,

01:07:38.500 --> 01:07:42.079
he is presented it like something off a platter

01:07:42.079 --> 01:07:45.849
like my tribal chief. I acknowledge you Here

01:07:45.849 --> 01:07:49.530
is a nice shiny steel chair for your advantage.

01:07:50.550 --> 01:07:52.889
Well before Hayman even gives the Chairs of Roman

01:07:52.889 --> 01:07:56.909
Reigns we have Hayman with chair in hand, screaming

01:07:56.909 --> 01:08:02.690
with tears in his eyes about the fact that he

01:08:02.690 --> 01:08:05.889
made him choose between his friend and his tribal

01:08:05.889 --> 01:08:09.650
chief and at this point it is very much looking

01:08:09.650 --> 01:08:15.360
like the tribal chief aspect has won. Heyman

01:08:15.360 --> 01:08:18.939
presents the same chair to Roman Reigns as he

01:08:18.939 --> 01:08:22.960
basically begs for forgiveness as Roman Reigns'

01:08:24.640 --> 01:08:32.420
reigning chair shots on Punk himself. Is this

01:08:32.420 --> 01:08:34.760
the point where we see that Seth has managed

01:08:34.760 --> 01:08:39.279
to drag himself up to the second rope and Roman

01:08:39.279 --> 01:08:42.880
is chair in hand? Under different circumstances.

01:08:43.130 --> 01:08:45.710
Seth would be in a perfect position for a 619.

01:08:46.130 --> 01:08:48.710
I was just thinking that myself, to be fair,

01:08:48.850 --> 01:08:51.189
if Ray Wisterio was in the ring rather than the

01:08:51.189 --> 01:08:54.689
Roman Reigns, we would be seeing a 619 being

01:08:54.689 --> 01:08:57.430
hit. Maybe not at the moment, Ray's injured,

01:08:57.609 --> 01:08:59.710
but Dom, Dom would have taken the opportunity.

01:09:01.250 --> 01:09:03.170
I'm pretty sure Zelina Vega would have taken

01:09:03.170 --> 01:09:05.189
that opportunity as well, to be quite honest.

01:09:06.949 --> 01:09:09.270
Stephanie Vecchio, somebody else that uses the

01:09:09.270 --> 01:09:14.600
619. Anyway, Yeah, so Heyman is the first to

01:09:14.600 --> 01:09:18.140
notice Seth getting to his feet hanging onto

01:09:18.140 --> 01:09:23.800
the ropes and presents this opportunity to Roman

01:09:23.800 --> 01:09:27.319
sort of saying look, this is the perfect opportunity

01:09:27.319 --> 01:09:31.579
the shield the shield the shield the obviously

01:09:31.579 --> 01:09:36.239
the night of the complete the shield blowing

01:09:36.239 --> 01:09:40.189
up in the ring was Seth Rollins coming up behind

01:09:40.189 --> 01:09:43.289
Roman Reigns and landing one hell of a chair

01:09:43.289 --> 01:09:47.829
shot to the back of a much younger, much smaller

01:09:47.829 --> 01:09:54.050
Roman Reigns. And this basically is giving Roman

01:09:54.050 --> 01:09:58.989
a chance at vengeance for this shot. Now, Roman

01:09:58.989 --> 01:10:02.109
is more or less bringing that chair up to take

01:10:02.109 --> 01:10:10.569
that swing when low and Behold, Paul Heyman does

01:10:10.569 --> 01:10:16.369
it again. This time he low blows his tribal chief.

01:10:16.689 --> 01:10:23.829
Yep, he hits Roman Reigns in his tribal testiculus.

01:10:26.069 --> 01:10:33.430
And Seth Rollins cannot believe his eyes. Seth

01:10:33.430 --> 01:10:36.489
Rollins is the ultimate possum isn't he? He plays

01:10:36.489 --> 01:10:42.630
possum better than anyone in this industry. Well,

01:10:42.750 --> 01:10:46.029
Seth Rollins wasn't surprised at all. He is the

01:10:46.029 --> 01:10:50.310
architect. Well, yeah, but the look he put on

01:10:50.310 --> 01:10:52.630
his face is just one of those. Yes, he knew it

01:10:52.630 --> 01:10:56.189
was coming, but still managed to play it like,

01:10:56.409 --> 01:10:59.869
oh, oh, it really happened. Not, oh dear, am

01:10:59.869 --> 01:11:05.529
I about to eat that chair shot? It's Heyman's

01:11:05.529 --> 01:11:07.710
face that I focused on more than anything else.

01:11:07.789 --> 01:11:11.409
When he low -blowed Roman Reigns, there wasn't

01:11:11.409 --> 01:11:14.369
an ounce of remorse in his face. If anything,

01:11:14.470 --> 01:11:16.609
I think he might have enjoyed it just a little

01:11:16.609 --> 01:11:18.869
bit, especially as he had to go and sit down

01:11:18.869 --> 01:11:20.869
in the corner of the ring afterwards to sort

01:11:20.869 --> 01:11:25.050
of admire his good work. Are we admiring his

01:11:25.050 --> 01:11:27.329
good work or are we thinking, holy crap, this

01:11:27.329 --> 01:11:29.369
adrenaline might actually have a heart attack

01:11:29.369 --> 01:11:32.819
in the ring? Or he might have had the biggest

01:11:32.819 --> 01:11:36.840
erection of his of his late life Yeah, what a

01:11:36.840 --> 01:11:39.020
way to if you're having erectile dysfunction

01:11:39.020 --> 01:11:41.819
issues guys the best way to deal with it is a

01:11:41.819 --> 01:11:44.840
low blow Roman Reigns in the main event of WrestleMania

01:11:44.840 --> 01:11:51.479
You can buy that on prescription services. I

01:11:51.479 --> 01:11:54.859
Mean WWE World had had a stand where you could

01:11:54.859 --> 01:11:58.260
chair shot a dummy of Logan Paul. Why wouldn't

01:11:58.260 --> 01:12:02.010
they have? An opportunity to low blow Roman Reigns

01:12:02.010 --> 01:12:08.689
in the plums. That is brilliant. I mean, WWE

01:12:08.689 --> 01:12:17.010
have done bigger things to be pettier. Well,

01:12:17.270 --> 01:12:20.649
yes. Yes. Look, it is a case that before Heyman

01:12:20.649 --> 01:12:23.510
goes and sits in the corner, he grabs that same

01:12:23.510 --> 01:12:27.619
chair. and hands it to Seth Rollins who takes

01:12:27.619 --> 01:12:31.619
it like handing off of a ceremonial torch to

01:12:31.619 --> 01:12:37.939
the next torch bearer and Seth measures Roman

01:12:37.939 --> 01:12:42.859
chair in hand shades of the past as Roman returns

01:12:42.859 --> 01:12:47.140
to his feet and Seth lays him out with a chair

01:12:47.140 --> 01:12:53.159
shot and pins Roman reigns for the one two three

01:12:53.689 --> 01:12:58.289
Winning the main event of WrestleMania Saturday.

01:12:59.649 --> 01:13:07.789
And winning the wise man into his corner. I mean,

01:13:07.890 --> 01:13:11.449
I love this match. I thought this match was incredible.

01:13:11.789 --> 01:13:14.789
It had everything it needed. It wasn't too over

01:13:14.789 --> 01:13:22.649
the top. Yeah, it was everything I wanted it

01:13:22.649 --> 01:13:28.479
to be. Minus a table somewhere. Well, we had

01:13:28.479 --> 01:13:31.020
to announce tables, I suppose. So tables was

01:13:31.020 --> 01:13:34.300
ticked off. Shots were definitely bought in.

01:13:34.420 --> 01:13:38.300
We had no need for a ladder. But yeah, yeah,

01:13:38.680 --> 01:13:41.460
we got everything we needed. I think it had it

01:13:41.460 --> 01:13:44.460
didn't. If they tried to add too much more into

01:13:44.460 --> 01:13:49.039
this, I think it would have spoiled it. Oh, 100

01:13:49.039 --> 01:13:52.970
percent. Definitely love the. double betrayal

01:13:52.970 --> 01:13:59.029
by Paul Heyman oh and it was i expected no i

01:13:59.029 --> 01:14:01.369
didn't even expect one betrayal i will be honest

01:14:01.369 --> 01:14:04.090
i wasn't sure where this match was going to go

01:14:04.090 --> 01:14:08.470
i thought i was going to win i had a feeling

01:14:08.470 --> 01:14:11.229
that for some strange reason i had a feeling

01:14:11.229 --> 01:14:13.960
that it was going to end up being Paul Heyman

01:14:13.960 --> 01:14:16.000
was going to end up siding with Seth Rollins

01:14:16.000 --> 01:14:18.899
in one way or another, but I just assumed that

01:14:18.899 --> 01:14:21.960
I didn't expect him to low blow both of the other

01:14:21.960 --> 01:14:24.399
competitors in this match. If you look at it,

01:14:25.500 --> 01:14:29.079
neither Roman or Punk had too much to pull from

01:14:29.079 --> 01:14:33.279
this. Punk got what he wanted, which was the

01:14:33.279 --> 01:14:36.239
main event of WrestleMania. You know, he's been

01:14:36.239 --> 01:14:43.920
after that since forever. And then Roman had

01:14:43.920 --> 01:14:48.000
already stated that he was retiring the OTC gimmick

01:14:48.000 --> 01:14:52.739
at WrestleMania. So you're not gonna, he wasn't

01:14:52.739 --> 01:14:55.680
gonna keep Paul Heyman with a gimmick that he

01:14:55.680 --> 01:14:59.720
was finishing off that day. Like there is no

01:14:59.720 --> 01:15:02.460
more OTC apparently. I'm not 100 % sure how true

01:15:02.460 --> 01:15:04.359
that's gonna be. We'll have to wait until Monday

01:15:04.359 --> 01:15:09.479
night Raw after Mania to see what happens. or

01:15:09.479 --> 01:15:11.800
if there is an appearance made this week from

01:15:11.800 --> 01:15:15.600
Roman at any point. But yeah, so that's from

01:15:15.600 --> 01:15:19.260
what I've read. But the only person that really

01:15:19.260 --> 01:15:22.300
looked to benefit from this with Paul Heyman

01:15:22.300 --> 01:15:26.579
was Seth Rollins, and that's what we were given.

01:15:28.619 --> 01:15:31.899
Yeah, very much so. But yeah, that sort of brings

01:15:31.899 --> 01:15:35.479
my notes to an end for night one, I will be honest.

01:15:35.960 --> 01:15:39.310
Yeah, mine are done too. So I suppose the only

01:15:39.310 --> 01:15:41.949
other thing to ask at this stage is Rich, do

01:15:41.949 --> 01:15:48.550
you have a highlight from night one? I think

01:15:48.550 --> 01:15:58.029
for me so far The best match would possibly have

01:15:58.029 --> 01:16:08.590
been You know, I think I think for me the best

01:16:08.590 --> 01:16:12.329
match was LA Knight and Jacob Fatu for the United

01:16:12.329 --> 01:16:17.409
States Championship. Okay. That was not what

01:16:17.409 --> 01:16:19.310
I was expecting you to come out with at all.

01:16:19.510 --> 01:16:22.210
No. I thought you were going to be torn between

01:16:22.210 --> 01:16:25.210
Jey Uso versus Gunther and the men's triple threat.

01:16:25.670 --> 01:16:27.550
I thought the opener and the closer were going

01:16:27.550 --> 01:16:30.609
to be the ones that you were... No. I really,

01:16:30.609 --> 01:16:33.210
really wanted Jey to win. That happened. I got

01:16:33.210 --> 01:16:35.149
what I wanted. It was a great opening start to

01:16:35.149 --> 01:16:38.439
WrestleMania day one for me. I think for me,

01:16:38.579 --> 01:16:43.039
I've been so lined up with this L .A. Knight

01:16:43.039 --> 01:16:48.260
Jacob Fatu storyline. I mean, even just the two

01:16:48.260 --> 01:16:50.720
of us just sending each other stupid voice notes

01:16:50.720 --> 01:16:54.119
with sort of like different wrestling quotes

01:16:54.119 --> 01:16:56.979
and stuff in it. It's the L .A. Knight ones that

01:16:56.979 --> 01:17:00.319
I have the most fun with. He's probably one of

01:17:00.319 --> 01:17:05.720
the more entertaining guys on the roster at the

01:17:05.720 --> 01:17:10.359
moment. He's so, so over. I wanted to see him

01:17:10.359 --> 01:17:14.500
retain. That didn't happen this time round, but

01:17:14.500 --> 01:17:17.680
we do know some point in the future, we are probably

01:17:17.680 --> 01:17:20.420
going to see LA Knight as a three times United

01:17:20.420 --> 01:17:25.840
States champion. Or possibly, you never even

01:17:25.840 --> 01:17:30.859
know a world champion. But yeah, I think for

01:17:30.859 --> 01:17:34.239
me it was LA Knight and Jacob Fatu. And I think

01:17:34.239 --> 01:17:41.399
my highlight of that match would probably be,

01:17:45.460 --> 01:17:47.880
I don't know to be fair. I think for me, I think

01:17:47.880 --> 01:17:51.720
it was seeing sort of like Fatou's face and the

01:17:51.720 --> 01:17:54.479
fact that he had Haku at ringside for him. It's

01:17:54.479 --> 01:17:56.439
just nice to see a lot of this family stuff done

01:17:56.439 --> 01:18:01.130
at WrestleMania. So. get to see so many of these

01:18:01.130 --> 01:18:03.409
guys celebrate with their family and especially

01:18:03.409 --> 01:18:05.649
with some of these families being generational

01:18:05.649 --> 01:18:08.350
wrestlers as well. It's pretty cool. You always

01:18:08.350 --> 01:18:10.130
get to see a little bit of history at WrestleMania.

01:18:12.770 --> 01:18:15.770
Yeah, fair enough. And what about for night two?

01:18:16.029 --> 01:18:17.789
Is there anything for night two that you're particularly

01:18:17.789 --> 01:18:23.689
looking forward to? So night two for me, I think

01:18:23.689 --> 01:18:31.890
it is going to be. I'm intrigued by the the women's

01:18:31.890 --> 01:18:35.310
triple threat match I'm looking forward to the

01:18:35.310 --> 01:18:41.569
Sin City Street fight That fatal four -way for

01:18:41.569 --> 01:18:44.250
the intercontinental looks like it could be interesting

01:18:44.250 --> 01:18:49.210
day two I feel is definitely the better day to

01:18:49.210 --> 01:18:53.510
watch The only thing I'm probably not gonna worry

01:18:53.510 --> 01:18:59.289
too much about is the the Logan Paul match But

01:18:59.289 --> 01:19:01.529
apart from that, the rest of day two looks pretty

01:19:01.529 --> 01:19:05.529
solid. And then of course, we are gonna be finishing
