This is the WWE Rw recap on WWE now and WWE in Fatics. Original production Oh, I can't wait to get into everything. I can't wait to get into it all. I felt good St Dominic mystero confronted. You put extra a little extra juice on that. stank. Stank is what it was stank on it. But before we get there We got a lot to talk about this King of the Ring tournament, you know? I thought I thought I had it in the bag. Oh. I mean, I had the whole thing fantasy booked for three months from now. I was gonna it's all ruined. I was going to be the one guy with the perfect king of the Ring bracket. That's going to be me. It's never been done before. Finally, someone has a perfect king of the Ring bracket And then here comes well, here comes Javon Evans But here comes the vision as well. So I guess the story begins. with the idea of Seth Rollins. and it's so interesting, right? Because last week We said look at the control that Seth Rowins showed. Look at the psychology. that Seth Rollins had. Yep. The idea that he understood the game the vision was playing Bet than the vision And was able on all ends, whether it was Austin Theory. Paul Hayman, whether it was Paul Hayman. whether it was Braon Breaker in his spear. He had everything He saw it all coming. all scouted. Yet Monz Ford watching his back. He was good to go Except here's the thing that he missed just because he said that he was done with the vision It doesn't mean he's done with theivision. There are two parties at play here parties must agree. You're done with me? Well I'm not done with you. And that really makes it difficult to be done with somebody when they're not done with you. My jaw was on the floor when Austin theory showed up becausecause I said to you while we were watching the match, I need a good stump to end this thing Be I had already and I started tying my shoe. And you said, no, no, no, no Get away from me. Yeah, I's okay. All right. You can't do that in the workplace. Come on. We have to keep a professional. I'm trying to putush in the right frame of mind. But I said I really need a good stomp to end this thing. I was all excited earlier in the night on Raw. We had Seth Rollins backstage talking about him in Roman Reigns and when whenever that happens, the people get excited. Well here here earlier in the night Seth said flat out because I mean, I think we all saw, you know, Corey Graves made the call last week after Seth Rollins beat Braon breaker that Seth can put the vision behind him. And Jackie Redman even asked about him. have you put the vision behind you? and Seth said flat out The vision is the past The King of the Ring is the present And the future is Roman Reigns and the World heavyweight Championship. and Roman Reigns is wearing a title that's not his and Roman reigns this and Roman reigns that And has the title seteth defined. He believes. Wh didn Yeahah and he didn't lose it He categorized that as where he's going and the vision as his past But it was totally in I can't even believe after poor Talaonga Got his face, his skull smashed through the announced table and then immediately after that, stomp through the ground. Wow stomp into the table, super stomp off the barricade onto the floor, which is what you got to do with somebody like Talat Tong. And I said, that's my good stomp. Now there we go. twow of them. and he got a bonus. I got them both Yeah. Now Seth's going to win. Austin Theory shows up Joh on the floor. Yeah. Seth had in fully under control ready to get the pin over Ricky Saints and there's Austin Theory to pull the referee out of the ring. And you know, I mean, under any other circumstances, no disqualification rules, Seth would be like, oo, I got to watch my backag But he's sitting there thinking, wow setettle that. I settled that little matter went ahead and put a bow on it last week. So I'm not even going think about it. It's in the rear view. Why think about the rear view? That's right We can't live life in the past No, you got to look forward. It's the only place to look. That's why that's why sharks keep swimming. And then Mones Ford shows up and I think, okay, it's fine because that's going even the numbers game. They have Austin theory, but Seth has a plan and the plan is Montes Ford, who by the way, looked fantastic in that little suit jacket. He did. Well, look, when when you look like Montes Ford, you can pull off a lot. That's true. You know, there's not much that Montes Ford could wear and it's like, ooh, I don't know what's happening with him B Yeah, especially because that was the game but that was the gamepl that theivision had last week. If that had been their gamepl this week, I'd say like what are you guys doing? It didn't And it didn't work. They learn. It didn't work last week becausecause the same thing happened Theory came out, Monz came out, you know and even the odds, as you said But then it's that black sweatsuit that black sweatsuit and Braom Breaker is in the ring and now Austin Theory who I think was there to break up the pin for sure But I think was there to absolutely Absolutely takeake that that that that Mones Ford body out of the equation. It was a sacrifice. Yes. because now it's like Seth has one ally Well there I mean, any more than one ally. You needd have multiple people watching your back because now Braom Breaker is there and then boom Speer right through Seth Rollins and he goes down at literally the worst possible time And then you see, you see Ricky Saints lookingooking on. like he's looking at like He's like he's like a dog looking at a food bowl. He can't believe it. It's right in front of him. The bag of greenies was open and the dog is going nook. There's no one else there. I could just eat the whole bag. he couldn't believe it. And he's walking around and he's doing that almost like military crawl to get over to Seth because he's already taken that damage. we've always got to do. Seth was was was was speared by Bron Breaker. All he's got to do is shhimmy over to Seth and get on top of him didn't have that awareness and somehow some way and this is the difference, right? This is where I think the happy to be there mentality fades away and where you notice that somebody is acting in a way where they are ready to take control, where they are ready to take advantage of what's in front of them and constantly and always looking for those opportunities as they appear because Javon Evans somehow Reized did all the math Like Zach Gfinak is looking at all that coding in his head. He did all the math real quick and realize what was going on And it's like, look, if you're a little less experienced You could check on Seth, you could make sure that the vision isn't going to do anything else You could figure out where to should being. I mean, wrestling in front of that crowd in Pariss there's like Seven people. Yes. All out there that you're all trying to take take accounting of. The stakes are massive too. But that but that's where the that's where it's wrong The only person that matters is the guy that's in the ring And Javvonne Evans just goes, I'm going to use what I can do better than anybody else and gets up in the sky. OG Cutter, one, two, three Javvon Evans advances in the King of the Ring tournament. It's crazy. You And by the way, when you look at this, okay, you've got Oa Femi Dominic Mysterio and Javon Evans in the Three of the final four in this year's King of the Ring tournament. this could be the youngest Field that the WWE has had in the final three of the four in the King of the Ring Tournament in a very long time. When you look at like not only what's going on right now, but what's going to be going on in the future of the WWE. These are the names that you're looking at and I don't know Who ends up taking that fourth spot But it's amazing to see It's Obea Femi, it's Dominic Mysterio. It's Joavanna Evans And the thing to keep in mind is it's not just a matter of going to Kight of Champions and putting a crown on your head and being on that elite list of people who were King of the ring It's the fact that you are not only that person for this year But you're going to suummer sllam, to wrestle for a world Championship Stadium shell. I mean, that's a massive deal and and look at your two champions right now, Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns And I don't think any of those three so far ever had a match for a world championship in the WWE, of course, I'm not talking about the mega championship that Dominic has in AApleA, but in terms of the WWE W Championship Off the top of my head, Th these are not there's certainly none of them have held that title. you know, so you're looking at a real possible sort of changing of the guard scenario, where at the very least You're getting people who are new elevated to places that they haven't necessarily been before because of this tournament. I'm glad that you pointed out the youngest field and not most. inexperience because Dominiic is a twenty year vet. Well Dominic didn't make that clear. Yeah earlier in the evening. Yeah. abbsolutely. No but because it isn't. it's a pro. It is. It's not a m It's not about, you know, not being experienced because if if you have a if you have inexperience to worry about, you can't go to wrestle met.ock Lesnner. Of course. You can't win a fatal for way like Javon Evans did tonight. No situation would be far too overwhelming to capitalize on if you were inexpericed. So we've got one more person to get added to this final four. And all of a sudden I'm back to square one, which I love when it happens in the King of the Ring. I love brackets so much because you get a clear picture of where you're going And then all of a sudden, one little thing changes and you're and your're to trying to figure out, okay, where is it that we're going You know what I mean? A we Are we looking at Jay Uso in L.A. Kight who we saw on Rw? or Is Royce Keys stepping up or we're seeing Finn Baller is it' his SmackDown debut as a Sack downown superstar as a current active Smackdown superstar on Friday that he's in this thing. So I just I don't know. I mean now all of a sudden you're looking at this and going, what if the finals of the King of the Ring is Dominic merial versusin Baller It could be It's not far fetched anymore. No, not at all. I feel embarrassed to admit this, but hand up. I was already looking ahead to Jay Uso and Seth Rollins That's where my brain was at entering Monday night Raw tonight. You thought that maybe that would be the semifinal. Yes, especially as Raw progressed and we saw the backstage interaction between the Uos and Seth Rollins. and they were talking about Seth talking about the family and saying, you know, not to bring up the family and Seth made sure that he pointed out, I'm not talking about the family. I'm talking about Roman rains You disagree with that? Yeah, everybody says that, but they go Roman Reigns uses his family I was talking about Rom, I wasn't talking about What's the second thing you said You're definitely talking about the family Yeah, I guess if you're talking about Roman, you are talking about the family. If your criticism of Roman is that he uses his family and then you're calling his family his Aernd boys. You're not talking about just Roman There's more people associated with that. You're talking about the family. People keep saying, I'm only talking about Roman. LA Night was doing the same thing. You're not just talking about Roman. You are talking about the family, you know, you can. Well' a free country. Well, because LA then was pointing out the neighbors are going to get involved, the cousins are going to get involved. the brothers, the sisters. a lot of people nephew. So to me that is Jacob Jrle Hammer Smid. He did say that. You know, his name was my name too That's what he said. It's a lot of people to bring up So okay, so before we get there though Before we get there I mean You look at this feel yeah, it could easily. be J U so. it could easily be LA. Night but I don't even I don't even know how you get to exactly where you're going anymore. But Jay Usso and Lllie Kight have a lot of issues between the two of them, which we saw play out tonight. and I wonder if that will impact a fatal fourway. Of course, I mean, if I'm in that fatal four way, I would think I'm going to hope that those two guys take each other out. off course. Just like I would see seed those sow the seeds is what I would do. That's what I would do. Sow the seeds And I would make it so that these two are, you know, are just off somewhere trying to pummel each other and then it's like, okay, now if I'm Royce Keys, all I really got to wor about is Fin Baller. Fr Fin Baller, I got to worry is Royce Keys. And while granted, I wouldn't want to have to worry about either of those two dudes. It's better than having to worry about them and then on other two dudes. Yes So I think that for sure Royce Keys and Fin Baller had the opportunity to be a smackown representative going into this King of the ring tournament. Yeah, because the issues between L.A Kight and Jay Uso play to their advantage. How about the look on the face of Seth Rollins at the end of the show where it was almost like he realized like You got me. like you did it again. He was he was Furious and it's not just about I think, I think It didn't feel like it was just about the idea of like You just cost me the King of the ring I think that Seth And maybe, you know, he was thinking about this on Italian vacation with Becky Lynch. I don't know. That vacation was ruined. Bye by Jessica Carr and Soluka. Okay we're going to talk about that a little bit later on course show. Of course we will. but I do I do wonder if Seth spent the week looking forward, almost planning the year out. You know sometimes you do that where you go like, okay, I've passed a certain milestone Right, I've gotten to this place. So now let me start looking forward It's so frustrating when you realize whole time was wasted because that thing that you thought you passed, you didn't pass You didn't pass. and then problems keep coming up. because of that. Right? You're not ready to move on from it because that thing won't let you move on from it. And that thing for Seth Rollins is the vision. and I think that reality was coming right back to him that he could think about Roman Reigns or he could think about King of the Ring or he could think about his championship that he never lost or he could think there's a lot of things that he could think about But when he declared war on the vision The vision's not waving the white flag And even though they're beaten Even though I mean, it's crazy looking at the vision who should be able to fill a ring with its members. It's down to Austin Theory and Braon Baker. It's not even a wise manan and you wonder Wh was call if Paul Hayman was calling the plays tonight Was he doing it from a hospital bed? Right. Do it from I don't know. I have no idea. or Was Bron Breaker going okay here's what we need to do? Or was Austin Theory going okay, here's what we need to do You know? Yeah. I mean, that would that would show you know, such maturity in the group that is the vision, right? Because Seth was that leader and then they kind of had Paul Hayman in the role of callalling the plays, if you will, while Na's taken out So Yes, so so Imagine the frustration of being like, okay, I've got this group dead to rights. And now with only two of them left, they still got one over on you. They still got in the biggest way possible in the main event of Raw King of the ring with Summer rlications. Yeah, the whole thing. The path to getting his world heavyweight championship back I mean, what do we think of the idea of I mean, I feel like We're looking at a Montz Ford Seth Rollins tag team. I feel like we are as well which is a wild concoction Yes. I feel like that as well because Braon Baker became a tag team champion when Logan Paul was taken out That's right. He speared himself into his own title. And they certainly have issues. They being Monttez Ford and Seth Rollins, have issues with the vision that are not behind them are not beind. And it was never behind Monz. No But Por Montes once again learning that I mean, not learning he already knew, but once again being proven right problems follow Seth Rollins. Well, they guess he knew that Seth hadnt solved it You know, that's why he was still there to go after it. I mean, look There are a lot worse tagg te partners you can have them on Tz Ford. You know, the idea of of Of that being a tandem is huge. It's exactly what Seth Rollins needs, but it'll be It'll'm I'm curious to see where things go with Seth because I think even as fans comfortable with this idea of Seth moving on. And like we were already having conversations about what's next for Seth Rollins. When is this match going to happen? when is that match going to happen? We were having conversations about Seth and Rollin at Sumerslim. were Here's the thing, as far as Seth and the vision goes, we might only be in the third inning. if you could imagine. It is crazy to think about Seth though, having to make Allies We saw he was reluctant at the beginning. to have friends. And he needed Monte Ford. He needed him. Yeah. When Mones Ford is your only ally And the vision has Braon Breaker and Austin Theory ready to line you up any moment and Brawn breaker spear you in half, what are you going to do Well, I mean, look, right now you have got them to a two on two position But you gott to be on the same page. You have to be on the sameage and you have to realize you're not done And I think that's the lesson that Seth Rollins learned I've got to tell you. He may not have a lot of allies in the locker room, but Seth Rollins has a lot of fans. Yes, he does. I heard them tonight. Yeah, for sure. all over the world And when you're a fan, you want to represent your favorite superstar.

Universe That's us. That's right. And I love that you u You picked up the Jacob Fatu jersey. H to. Jacob Fatu Big part Monday night Raw Seth was running his mouth. This Seth Rollins is feeling very confident Very confident early on Monday night Raw. Thinking that he had he he had the world, well, exactly where he wanted the world. And and he was whether he says, no, I'm just talking about Roman. I'm not talking about the family. He's talking about the family. Everybody thinks they can just talk about Roman And it's and it's like you're not talking about the family. And then the minute the Uos show up to back up their cousin They go oh, you're as Eron boys. It's like this is what having a family is. You back up your family. This is this is what having a family is. This is what this is what you do for your family members, right But the Uos show up and I was looking for him and there he was Jacob Fett too. L cooler than ever. Loo the coolest ever who acknowledged his tribal chief last week on Rw was there with the Uos But Jay said ve I've heard enough Get him, Jacob And Jacob got right in Seth Rollins face. And then he walked away. And I went back. I said, you know I rememember last week, what did he say Who was he acknowledging? He acknowledged the OTC Roman Reigns, but Jay, I didn't acknowledge your punk ass. No, he did not. Oh, even when you say it charges me up He did not acknowledge Jayusso's punkast, and I say that quoting Jacob Not my opinion, just I'm just quoting what I heard So which is why I would get in trouble for this D extr. but But Uh It's not my opinion to suck it. I'm just quoting I'm what quoting what I heard on the thing It's what they said. I don't even know what it is.'m quoting it What exactly is it? I don't know. they said it. So so Jacob U then reminds The Oos that like I'm not running your plays Oh run and he said he said the OTC Roman reigns just like you said it, with energy, with enthusiasm He puts some stink on it, as they say And and I was like, okay, so he does like and and maybe that's what goingo through a battle like tribal combat does. You know what I mean? where like When Grande Americano and Gnde Americano had their mask versus mask match. it took that fight for Chad Gable to come out on the other side as respectful as he's been. And maybe there is that thing where Jacob knows that as much as I wanted it And as much as I wanted to take it from Roman, he didn't let me take it. I tried my best and he didn't allow it to happen. He earned that respect But what he's not doing is taking plays that are called by Jimmy and Jay Usso And I think that that's I'm going be watching that very closely because Roman is the one who always talks about running the play. you know, I mean, Cody's over here talking about QB one, but Roman calls himself OTC one. There's all these analogies to football teams But I think it's going to be imperative that as this group as this family comes together and works for the same cause It's not enough to just call the plays. You need to figure out what position every everybody's in. You can't have drama in that wide receiver room. Right. We've seen that happen. Right. Right. We saw it with the Eagles and look what happened to them. R Nothing good. Nothing good Not one thing. You got to know exactly where everybody is positioned and why they're positioned there. And I think that that's something that Roman reigns as the captain of this team is going to have to figure out. like where where does the if you've got Jacob on the team Where is the line? Is it a straight line of all equals Are there people that have a little more power? there a hierarchy? I mean It wouldn't be crazy For him to say, of course there's a hierarchy. Jay has been the worldld Heavyweight Champion. Yes. which which Out of you go, who else has had that? O just me and Jay Okay, so Jay second up Okay, so who's been here from the very beginning? Okay, Jay, who's also been a worldorld heavywight champion, who also proved it on his own, who's also been in tribal combat. Okay, Jay second up You know, I mean, I but that has to be said. Yes. That has to be said. I don't know if that's something that Roman Reigns is going to say Yeah, and I don't know if it's something that Jacob would just, I mean if it came from Roman, Jacob obviously because he acknowledges his OTC. right. You would have to accept it. But if the messaging comes from Jay, if you're Jacob, it can't come from Jay. No. It hasn't been made clear yet. The OTC hasn't made the call. Yeah, Jimmy and Jay telling Jacob what to do That's not going to fly right now. It's not I don't honestly see it long term ever flying. No. But it's certainly not flying right now, especially because he made the good point of the fact that L.A. Knight's been talking about the family for weeks now And they haven't done anything about it. So do something about it. And do you remember what word Jacob used to describe the situation they were in Ill tell you if you don't iz Yeahah, I didn't know it was quQiz Day, so you can you can That's what he said It was ass. I did write that in my notes. in all ass As. It is right here. As. And I think that it was. You know, I think I think that it is. and that's how I feel when people are talking about my family. And if other members of my family aren't doing anything about it It's ass, you know So I know there's a lot made about the Samoan werewolf being neutered. But I can't exactly see Jacob Fatu walking around with a cone. his head. M Come on. Michael Cole's going to have to publish a retraction There's no neutering going on. There's no domesticating going on. The idea that Jacob Fatu cannot acknowledge his tribal chief after tribal combat without somebody talking about neutered and domesticated is horrible. orrible If you tried to put a cone on Jacob Fatu You'd imed like do that thing right off. You'd find a way out of that cone. Oh he'd be out of that cone and wow, in two shakes of a lamb's tail what they said? Yes, it is. He'd be out of there immediately. No, no, it wouldn't happen. It wouldn't happen. And then you chew right through those stitches. And I think it was it was nice to see because that's what I've heard all week. A lot of people saying, o, Jacob had too neutered. He showed he's the exact opposite of Newer today. Yeah based on his interactions with the Uso. Jay said go do this. No Jacob said, how about no, you go do that. And Jacob and Jay did LA. Kight comes out. cuts another promo about the bloodline. by the way. Also that mic throw from Berkeley, what the heck? Yeah, no, that was a terrible throw I mean, embarrassing. Go back and look at all onene of the things that made Stonecoool Steve Austin so sensational is that he was able to catch every beer can that was thrown at him because the the throws were so wonderful. They were incredible For LA night, they have to deal with that in Paris, France. Come on, Berkeley, getet it together Bro Let's go. comeome on. It was But LA night mega, mega ovation Mega ovation in Paris comes out and talks about the bloodline and talks about the fact that as confident as he is in the King of the Ring He doesn't know If he's going to be able to win this fatal four way, not because Jay is so good But because of all the interference, And then he says even if he wins that fatal for and goes on to the finals and wins the finals in the King of the Rb He's going right for Roman Reigns. He's calling his shot already I'm going to suummmer sllam and I'm going to fight Roman Reigns for that title. then he says, even if I get Roman reigns He won't be able to do it on his own and that's when he started listing everybody that's going to come out, which the wake of Jingle Himerschmid Tell me This calendar year How many times Has Roman retained the world or how many world heavyweight championship matches Has Roman Reigns won this calendar year because of interference Zero No not. That's a Samoan don nut. Zero. N Zero We need to get this out of our vernacular haters. He had help on the way to the World Heavyweight Championship match, but during the match, no help. What do you mean on the way? You mean in like Well the losers had shown up, you know, they had Romans's back. Okay, yeah, but that's because they were being coaxed. I agree They were being coached. Listen in worldorld heavyweight Championship title defenses, Roman Reigns has had help. He's right on his own No help and he's shown up to work So what else can you say about Roman? It's enough. It's enough. this they're reaching at straws here and Rollins did it tonight and LA Kight did it tonight. It is interesting that there is kind of a bubbling And we saw it a little bit you know a few months back, but now it feels like two things have happened since Romanans won the World Heavyweight Championship. You're starting two bubbling scenarios buble. That's You're starting to get that feeling of Roman. potentially being corrupted again. Yes by the championship. Yes. At times he's acting in ways that old Roman would act, which He was pretty successful. He was very successful. Yeah. The most necessarily not I can't knock it at all. No as a matter of fact it puts food on your table. So yeah, I mean, go check the tape spent about one thousand three hundred and sixteen days talking about how great it was. I know. I mean, it's on record. more Began. Because after it ended, you still to remember how great that wasried it was, yeah.ight. for a long time. Let's do retrospective was basically up until Wrestlemania this year, I was doing that. Yes. And then now we started with this one. The other bubbling scenario is we are getting this bubble up of people Wh? do not like that Roman Reigns is gaining power again And that's Lllie Knight, that's Seth Rollins. Thats And that's other people that I think are going to be included in that group As Roman Reigns continues to assert himself, You're going to find more and more people that are trying to stop it, not based on What's happening right now based on history Seth Rollins has the exact same feelings that he had. when he wore that shield uniform and acted as Cody's shield at WrestleMania forty leading up to WrestleMania forty LA Kight was having problems with Roman reigns in January Yeah of that year And none of that stuff has gone away. That's why we say everything because we're not pretending it didn't happen. We haven't seen him in a long time, but I don't think Drew McIntyre has let go of things that happened with Roman Reigns. I would imagine not, but he somehow would find a way to probably be mad at the people that are mad at Roman Reigns now by going, I've been saying this since the beginning You know, But I'm interested to see you, but you're hundred percent right. Yeah.' the enemy of my enemy, my friend Typically not No, the enemy of your enemy is your friend. yes. N because they're the enemy of your enemy. Yes. You see what I'm saying So is that going to be a position that Drew and other people are in? I don't know find out. I did like when LA LA Night said, I may be unchosen, but you all chose me That line really hits Be he's right He's right. People question the opportunities, but at the end of the day, that sound that gets made when LA. Kight walks through the curtain and hits the ring is completely undeniable JayU so came out And hes still Crash out Jay is my favorite Jay. You know this. I've been very clear about this. He's all vibes, he's all emotion. but just emotion. and right now his emotions are going all over the map. Like just depending on he's just He's allowed himself to operate from his Iid. It's crazy how Jay was just so happy and eating all the time with little kids and now he comes out and he's just Firing up, ready to But guess what hurts someone? He's also ready to run a back. Of course. He's going to run it back but now you're going is he running it back to have fun with the crowd Or is he running back to get under Ellie K Night Skin?? Or is he running it back to assert his authority in the moment? Where's the combination of all three? Rge, runun it back Rageful run ab back Is it a passive aggressive run it back Or is it just a I'm having fun with everybody running back Depends on the day for Jay U so. You know and it's really you can typically tell by his body language. Yeah. I mean, look, he's aware of everything. He's aware of all the criticisms. he's aware of what all the fans say I so you see it in his Instagram stories. He talks about it straight up So it's like he's aware that there were fans that are watching the Royal Rumble go and why is he running it back in the Royal Rumble? Why he running it back in the war games? And so when he gets in there, I think part of it is I'm running it back to spite you. It's for the haters. R This is dedicated to my this is dedicated to all my fans, especially my biggest fans, who are my haters I think that might be where Jayuso is coming from You know, and that's I love that place. That's a fun place You know what I mean? I love that Be that is also undeniable. That is also when you've got the haters coming at you and you're like, how about I just keep doing my thing? And we'll see how it works out thenen you also become undeniable. It's two different paths to walk. LA Knight and Jay Uso to stay undeniable. And Jay Uo gets right in LA Kight's face and hits him with the warning shot But as he's walking away and I was like, huh elly not going to let Jay Y youo get the last word. and there was that thought. You know what he said That's right. Yes he did. That's exactly what he said. because I said, man LA. Kight, like he voluntarily came out here and had this ring time When he's coming across looking like the loser here. I go, That's a tough shake for LA Night, but you're right. What did he say? N. That's right exactly what he said Thats I think that was the lyrics to the Clarissa E explains it all theme song. And then said, let me talk to you Yes, he did. Yes, he did But he did say that you got me all wrong You know, I respect you. You're speaking up for your family and that's what a man should do. That's what a good man should do And one other thing, screw your family. And it's like, okay, well now you're really talking about his family. Like also, I'm not sure how sincere all that first stuff was Okay. I'm not sure all the stuff. like that's like that's like when you insult somebody I go like like if I maybe you're just going, hey, you look Terrible. But don't take it personal All d respect all the respect. Listen You've got a lot to work on All due respect. you're like How much of the respect is due? How much respect exactly is that? That's what it felt like when Lie Knight was like, I want you to know, I totally respect you. I think you're a good, good man But you grew your family And you're like, wait, witait Which part did you mean Ally nights like, I don't And Jay is ready to go in there and charge the ring. Jimmy holds him back. He goes, no, this isn't the play, this isn't the play. Voice of reason, Jimmy Uel. I'm very curious to find out if Jacob Fetu thought it was ass or not. I'm hoping that next week on Raw, we will get an update r Jacob Fatu to find out. I got a feeling he thinks it was ass. Probably. Well, Jacob Fatu likes a conflict resolution. Sure. He doesn't like it being left in the air. He likes a good conflict resolution. I do love how these these twins, right? It you got Crash out Jay and Jimmy as a voice of reason. Perfect yin and yang. Yeah. Sharon the womb Yeah Beautiful. J Jimmy there to chill it and Jay there to make it absolute utter chaos. I love it. I love it.ook, you know what else I love the number one sports fan festival.

Saw that. There you go. You going be all right? No. I'm pretty far from okay. You're going to be walking around the Dve at center acknowledging day to the sk. You're gonna know. You're going to know that I'm just sitting there look you're going to see me like my eyes going everywhere. You looking for Roman again? No. Nope. Just let me know if you need anything. Let me, why aren't you looking at me straight in the face Last year at Fanatics Fest, you made John Cena's life. I gave him a great moment He confirmed that you made his life. By the way, I watched a video on YouTube. We'll get back to Ryevin in a minute. I watched a video on YouTube. Oh was it of a bear, a bear getting fe the sandwich? Because you've been watching a lot of those videos I do. I watch a lot of bear videos. Yes,es, I did. I did watch a bear sandwich video. a bear sandwich. I did watch a bear sandwich video. There's a different video. It was a it was a YouTube short, you know. And it was like moments that u celebrities meet their fans. and it's like all celebrities meeting like little kids And I swear. Don't tell me. I swear. It's all this is why and I'm getting to this because fanatics Fast makes moments. okay? It's like It's like Billy Eilish meeting a little kid and like the Rock meeting a little kid and all this stuff. And then I'm watching and I go I go that's John Sena. I go, Oh, that looks familiar.. And it's John Cena jumping across the table and hugging this little kid likeike a bald forty year old with a beer I'm just sitting there it's really weird thing watch this touching video of children's dreams coming true. and then you see John Cena is hugging you. It it's a very odd dichotomy that happens. That's to say that's the magic of Fonatics Fest. Sor all those kids out there don't give up on your dreams. Don't give up. Sometimes it takes a while decades. L long time. Deades. Sometimes you might not be a kid anymore. You might not. Well, it depends on people's definions. But you can still make John Sena his life. I confirmed it on this show that you made his life. He said that Maybe Roman Reigns could make maybe you can make Roman Reigns his life. You think he'll jump across the table and hug me? No.. I don't. I v. think So All right, Probably especially if anybody could make him, it's probably you. Prob you're probably right value I'm gonna try to get Jacob to tell my mom an honoraryus so he knows You know what I mean? Just give me a heads up. I think that'd be good look for Jacob to do that right now. Maybe not right now, because he's still establishing himself. Timing is every We got a month. Okay. You know what I mean? We got a month before Fanatics Fest. Hey, speaking of heroes How'd your hero do tonight and they're Qeen of the Ring first round, fatal forwight? Well, it's interesting you bring that up because I'm not really a stats gal.m not like analytics nerds over there. Oh. Like you? I love stats. Big stats gal.. Everybody knows that about you. But you know, it was actually brought to my attention this week. I didn't realize this at all, but I was listening to Becky Lynch on Stephanie McMahon's podcast, What's your story? Didn't realize this. But since Becky returned at WrestleMania? Yeah, did you know that she's won one hundred percent of her matches that Jessica Carr has not been the referee one hundred percent Every single one that Jessica Carr has not been involved in, Becky has gotten the W. know That's actually a hilarious statistic. So I know big if you over here like to say, Oh, Meghgan's blowing things out of proportion. Oh, it's not Jessicaarr's fault. Oh, it's Becky's fault. It is. one hundred percent of the time she loses when Jessica Carr is in the ring and when Jessica Carr in the ring. she wins a hundred percent of the time. I think it's more Maybe Jessicar' the best referee. No the refere That's not it. Who's the best referee, Dan Angler doesn't know when Gunth's feet are on the rope. It's because she's crooked. all right? Oh She's crooked. So the second I saw her in the ring, I was like, this poor woman, not only is she the greatest female wrestler of all timees, not just me saying it, everybody is saying it. Sports Illustrated says it and the Bleacher report says it Yeah She's also had her Italian vacation ruined, which I hear Michael Colon commentary saying, Ohh, some of us have been working. Really? I've been scrolling through Instagram. There's been a lot enjoying themselves in Italy and that's great. I think Michael Cohes worked.'m I'm fine with people enjoying themselves in Italy, but Becky was robbed of the chance to enjoy herself. in Italy. She posed to think about lasagna didn't even look like L lasagna. She was having a tough time. It didn't even look like because it was Lasagna in Italy. So anyway, she's in the match tonight, Fail four way. Yeah. chance to become Qeen of the ring But she's already the quQueen of the ring in my eyes. It's not how it works. There's a tournament. It doesn't matter what my eyes She is the queen Thatine dollars we'll get you a couple of coee who walks into nine dollars for coffee' kind of a lot Well, guess what? Welcome to twenty twenty six Anwways as soon as I drow Jica Car in the ring, I just threw my notebook in the air. Forget it. Oh good. You stopped watching. No, I didn't stop watching. I just You know what? my You decided stopping in My day was ruined. It was Ruined I feel like this is by the corruption And the crookedness of Jessica Carr. You know about parasocial relationships No, never heard of them. Okay. Never once. Why? Why? you have something to say about them I going sit here and give you your whole lesson, I'm just Google it at home if you want. Is it a pop quiz Dday? No, no, no, no, no, no. I'm just saying maybe when you get home, Google par a social relationship and see if maybe that's you and Becky It could be a good thing. you don't know what it is. It could be a really complimentary. I think a parasocial relationship is more like you in the bloodline. No, That actually Apparently you don't listen to this podcast because Jacob Fetu said I was honorary oz so h, it's not exactly parasocial. That's social social. I don't know if he has the authority to grant anybody as an honorary O course he does. Coman does. He's Jacob Fatoou. he's like the guy. okay? You know, That's nothing a pair ofi. told Roman about it I'm pretty sure he must have. Yeah. So probably good That's been tense between him and Roman, to be fair They've seen it. Yeah. Oh yeah. So comat is as tense as it gets. Yeah. So, you know, I don't know. they've got they've got a lot going on. Yeah. But hundred a hundred percent of the matches. But I didn't see any anything tonight are moments. In fact It was just a case of fatal for way imp positioning. you know, Liv Morgan again, just like Javvon Evans Finding her spot gettingetting in there. Chelsea Green and I feel like this has happened to Chelsea before thinks that this is her moment and the audience thinks, Ohh my Godd, we're going to witness Chelsea Green's moment finally And she hits that finish and then boom Here comes Liv Morgan to grab one for herself And that's a very Liv Morgan thing to do. You can't you can't because, you know, you goes back to these bear videos. you can't get mad at Liv Morgan for being Liv Morgan. You know what I mean? Rring awareness. Right. She's going to take advantage, but but Yeah, Chelsea putut her finish on Becky, by the way. So she may have gotten that pinfall victory over Becky Lynch We won't I'm not going We never know of the cadence of the counting of the counting by Jessica Carr. Do you think it would have been a fast count? Probably. Yeah. they were just saying in my ear, all of our production staff, ow in five when Jessica Carr's in the ring. ow in five Is she Oh and five. Is that a true statistic? No She's never one with Jessica Carr in the ring? Not once Crazy. That is crazy. That startarting to think that Jessica Car's crooked? That's kind of a damning statistic to tell you the truth. And I'm not typically a statcal. No, you're not typically a stat scal. But in this situation, a lych gal, but not typically a statcal. Yeah, I have to be a stat scal Is somebody got to bring that information forward is chararming Isn itt Stephanie McMahon's podcast a podcast where people get like deep and really talk about their emotions? Sure. And that's what Becky was talking about his podcast. It is emotional. Yeah. No, I just ruining your vacation, ruining your life, taking your title from you. 'Cause I remember like Randy's podcast was amazing with Steph and he was getting into like, you know, emotions and everything. Paul Heyman and Steh was incredible because it was like Paul going into his past and his parents, his grandparents. I mean, it was amazing And Becky Lynch was complaining about the number of times the Jessica Car scoot her. We don't think she was complaining. she was just pointing it out. 'cause she was like, Steph was probably like, what really bothers you Backgy and And she was probably question That cuts deep. Crooked car. crooked Jessica car. Right. Crooked car That's awesome Yeah. I'm glad you find this funny. I knew I find it hilarious. I find it really fun. I don't think anything about it is funny. I find it thing everything us specky believers have been pointing it out over and over again. Jessica Carr is crooked. Jessica Carr is corrupt. And you just Oh, you guys don't know. And now I bring the stats forward. Time to let our guard down break the fourth wall. Becky GQuen What's really going on And she goes, Jessica Gary screwing me over. It's great. It's great. I got to listen to the podcast. I can't believe I've missed this thing. Yeah. You know, a lot of times Becky's voice gets a little grating for me. but I've had it yell in my ear to be fair So you know, maybe it's triggering. but I I I am going to go back and listen to this podcast. Liv Morgan makes the final four in the King of the Ring So next week, we're going to get Raquel Rodriguez versus o Sky. It's going to be a good one. G to be incredible. And then Liv Morgan faces the winner of Soluca, Lyra Valkyriia, Charlotte Flair and Jade Cargill What what do you make of Roxan Perez saying flat out. You know, I was Maybe maybe I overreacted Last week, you were right, Baba bot. It's the judgment day. We we should all just be happy for each other. And Liv was like, yeah And then Roxan saying I think the best case scenario would be If Rquel beat Eo and then live, you beat your opponent and then you and Raquel were were in the finals together that way Judgment day is guaranteed. I think it was very smart and it goes by what the judgment day H really you don't think has really pushed forward. You don't think Raxan Perez is needling? No, no. I think course is this is really what every everybody in the judgment day has been saying. It's all for one and one for all. goold in the judgment Day is gold in the judgment Day. It doesn't matter who's holding the gold And wouldn't you generally chances to win instead of one? Generally the people who say that are the ones that are holding the gold. Yeah, Liv didn't seem too happy when Roxanne pointed it out. she had to move on to Dominic' thing Yeah, when Dom walks into the room, he's typically a distraction. Well, he does command a certain degree of attention. You got to give him that. Gorgeous. It's a bit of a lethario, that dominic mysterio. You know Uh, yeah, I mean, listen. I am getting, I've been getting annoyed all week long Be I feel like every time I get into and I mean last week because all week long is one day, but it's Monday. already. But had it with this week. I have been getting annoyed today. but also last week because they go like this. They go people all these the fans when I have conversations, they go like this. and then this happens and that happens. I think it'll lead to the breakup of the Judgment Day And it's like, what is it going take to get through your skulls that the Judgment day is forever Is this forever It's forever. Stop with this break up the judgment day stuff Testament Days they've been through a lot of erras. I know and like they don't get they've been through more erras than Taylor Swift And they don't get any credit for it, you know? They don't get any credit. Taylor got a movie and a tour and now she's going to get married at an arena What is the judgment they get for it? Oh but they're going to break up soon. That's not cool You know? I get very upset about it But again I think I think there are very different complications in the Queen of the Ring and the King of the Ring, but there's just there's a lot of meat on this bone.. I just I'm fascinated by Liv's reaction. to her little Roxie, bringing forward somethingomething that Live Morgan has preached in this faction. Yeah Absolutely, abbsolutely. Hey,, I want to talk about Oba Femi, you know, the ruler is here And before we start the conversation about Oaemi, remember that you can rep Oba Femy with the newest tes that are available now at WWE shop and fanatics, honestly Obaemi might have my favorite line of merch right now, and it it's a line couple shirts, hoodie, the whole thing. the new OBa stuff is super, super cool, but maybe not The absolute coolest thing. Dan Hausen, you know, usually hands out curses This time he took one away. celebrate a new era with the Dan Hausen Ns collab tease Available now at WWE shop and Fanatics, this was not sent to me by the way. I literally went to the NBA store in midtown Manhattan and saw this Danhouse and Nick shirt on Iack. You're lucky you got your hands on one. banked it up flying off shelf. It was packed, dude. It was packed, but I had to have it for the finals. This is sports history, this Dan Hausen Nicks t shirt Right now as at the time of the recording of this podcast, what are we at thirteen and in the playoffs s and Dan hasous and uncursed the Nicks. Are' a big wee guy As far as the Nicks go New York Kicker Bers We second B big W gui. Big Wiiy Nintendo Wii, New York Nickixs Wi, all theiis. I love Wi You can get your hands on it right now, G the Dan Hausen Nixs collollection Available at WWE shhop and Fanatics. There's even a Danhouse in Jayla Brunson shirt. There's so much good stuff great available at WE shhop and Fanatics So Oba Femy comes out to start Monday night Raw Oh. By the way, tell me, his entrance where they showed his his pose and his his shadow. Yes on the entire crowd looming over the arena. So good. So cool. Yes. I hope that becomes that's like a thing going forward. I didn't think his entrance could get any cooler and it did. He's got so much aura M This Oafemi comes out and they're going crazy for him He allows him to go crazy for him. Then he kind of calms everybody in Paris down. he's got to get to business, you know? And he talks about first like he talks more than I thought he would about Brock Lesnar. He starts by quoting Paul Heyman and saying, you know, him and Paul Heayman don't have much in common. No. But what they do Paul Heayman doesn't believe in predictions, he believes in spoilers And what was Oafemi's spoiler? His spoiler was that he's winning winning the King of the Ring tournament. You bet that he's going to wear the crown and win the King of the Ring tournament in his first year on the main roster of WWE call Brock Lesnar a B word which I' not You know, if case Brock's listening. I know he loves podcasts. That's not my opinion. He said the only thing he's seen in the last week is a big bad B word. That's it. That was it. That was what he said. And he said to Brock, you can't stay away forever. Now normally anybody else I would go, you got to get the past out of your head And look at what's in front of you. But I don't think I'm ever going to tell Obaemi how to do his job. No. I think Obafemy's got it under control.. You know? Yeah But I I don't know There's a sound I respected more all night tonight on Monday night Raw than the sound of dominic mysterious theme music interrupting all of Eemi I mean, look, say what you want about Dominic mysterio He's fearless. Of course. I mean, there is something about him. There is a confidence that has been instilled in that young man. No thanks to his father.'s been brewing for twenty years. twenty year vet in this business. He did point out that Obafemi is a mere rookie And the dominic mystero in his gas station attendant outfit, stylish gas station attendant, by the way. The neck tattoo rules. The neck tattoo. I'll tell you what, if this was a gas station attendant at my local gaseteria That's right. I would like cafeteria. tons of them I would not allow, you know would say I would say, I'm going to go get the car filled up. I wouldn't let my wife go get it because this is this is, you know, This is a dangerous gas station attendant. You know what I'm saying? Look at him. He's so cool. He's the man. You know what he told Ofemy to do He said, get down on your knee And you know what he said Bend the knee and respect the stashe wanted Oba Femi to get down on one knee out of respect for Dominiic's facial hair, his mustache that he's grown Which overem me, and this shocked me. He did chose not to do that. Hoba Femi decided after everything that he's been through that he will not be kneeling down. pay Homage. to dominate mysterios M And I love this dominic mystero. Not only does he come out with fire lines like that great stylish gas station attendant apparel. Yeah that Travis Scotts on. But he also comes out with a plan and that plan is his pal, JD McDonough to come up from behind Oba Femi and hit him with a chair The only problem is Oh he didn't even flip. No, he didn't He wasn't he didn't move one inch As it turns out, this plan was great on paper. It was as if someone tapped him on the shoulder. You gotta look at this photo Oba is sitting there and he's got his nice pants on He's got a balton He's got a beautiful shirt tucked into those pants. He's got his jewelry on his wrists. He's not out there to fight. And he feels a breeze that he realizes is JD McDonough hitting him with a steel chair. And he's almost exasperated. He's like, seriously You're gonna make me do this now. I didn't come here for this. I'm not dressed for this. I'm trying to just enjoy a little bit of time with the Parisian crowd. And he turns around and of course, he takes out JD McDonough. Dominic Mysterio does start to gain a little bit of momentum. a six one nine. It unfortunately does not last, but thank God JD was there to save Dominic Mysterial from what appeared to be a power bomb coming up. But listen, man, I think that it's been a little while Since we saw, you know, just a little while, but a little while since we saw Dominic Mysterio in a really big singles match. I agree And I think people forget 's got a lot of tricks. He wasn't even wearing sleeves tonight and he still got tricks up his sleeves Is there a world You're looking at this bracket Yeah, everybody's sitting there going, when Obafemi giv us the spoiler, you kind of believe it, right? But a lot of stuff happens. You can't tell me there's not a world The dominic mysterial figures it out, whether it takes a hammer An Eett Guerrero stunt A loose boot. a slick rope. U interference from the outside, a live distraction, a Roxan distraction, some physicality from JD. all of the above Can you sit there and tell me there's a zero percent chance or is it a greater than zero chance that Dominic beats Obafemi? Is it greater zero? It's greater than zero. Okay. Okay, that's all I need. We're in this thing, baby. That's all I need. There's a greater than zero chance that Dominic Mysterio beats Oba Femi on Monday Night Raw to advance the King of the Ring Tournament next week Greater than zero. Oh, That's all I'm gonna need to fuel my entire week because What you brought up Dominic has a lot of tricks. E when he's not wearing sleeves, he's got those tricks. Because Dominic Mysterio focuses on one thing just getting out with his hand raised. However There there's maybe I don't know that I've ever know maybe since the late Rate Eddie Guerrero. I don't know of any person who has been more laser focused on one simple thing. How do I get out of this ring with the referee holding my hand up and then I'm running. If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying, baby. onene thousand percent. And it's only cheating at if you get caught Okay, Dominic doesn't often get caught. He's really good at not getting caught. For that whole li situation that was as all soppy But all' well that ends well. It all turned out for the best. Love wins. Yeah, love Love is love is love is love is love. Okaykay. And I think that that's what's fueling Dominic mysterio. and that's, you know You know, and how great That's the power That's the power of love. How great would it be Queen Lve And Kingdom I mean, it would be like Pom King times thousand million. And we did see in the Judgment Day Cubhouse, they were working on something. That's why Liv had to go plan. Yeah, yeah, they had a plan. and so I imagine this plan had to do with King in the ring, right? Can you imagine the level of indecent control that L live Morgan a dominic mysterial would hold over Monday Night Raw if they were the king and queen of that show. They were the king and queen of the whole roster. Be so nuts. Oh they'd be impossible to deal with. JD would be like a duke or something That would be sick That's for the D J J Duke JD. Duke McDongh That's got a nice r. For The royal family, we could have a royal wedding. We could ever o my God We could have a royal wedding Whoa. And we wouldd have to do it like at six o'clock in the morning like they do in the UK, you know what I mean? We just do it on raw could do it on wrong. It would be the most the most huge gallant affair that's ever took place on Monday Night Roow. That would be massive. Oh, I really hope that that's who I want the king quQeen to be. Live and Dom. Live and Dom. veryer much so. We are We are on the precipice of something very, very special We also saw tonight I do want to give a shout out. Mask versus mask No Ch de is Grandes. There were a lot of questions about what's next for Chad Gable And we see him on SmackDown And he apologizes to Ray Phoenix. And Ray says, I appreciate it. I accept it There's more to be done He goes to Monday night Raw He apologizes to Penta and even brings forward the fact birth of Grande Americano. And it's crazy to think Pentas WWE debut is what started this whole quest as long ago as that was. It's hard to even kind of imagine the idea that Penta was not in WWE. And wasn't he talking to Dominiic Mysterial Of course, Dony Myeriia slipped in the number of the gu whoever it was. Yes, one hundred percent Yes, Dominiic' involved in some wayays, shape or form But he apologized to Penta and acknowledged and push forward the fact that heed that it's all started with Penta and Pent accepted it. and he said, but I'm not the one to talk to. And then Chad Gable goes and talks to Dragon Lee and Ray Mysterio, but they don't even let him start Don't worry about it, dude. Don' beat yourself up Ray did push forward the idea that look, there's other people for you to talk to from even before you were Grande, but Now I don't know how far Chad Gable is going to have to go on this apology to her But I guess if you want to make amends, it's important, right But actions do speak louder than words. That's true That's true. And then and we got and I was happy that we got to see these actions, right Because we see this incredible intercontinental Championship match. This is what the Incontinental Championship Classic. That's right is all about Ray Mysterio versus Penta. Unbelievable. If you didn't watch it tonight, make sure you go back on Netflix and watch that match. Every time Ray Mysterio is in the ring, make sure you go back and watch because it's just unreal.
