1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,600
It's still real to me, damn it!

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:12,800
What a video!

3
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:17,000
Welcome everybody!

4
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,760
Welcome to this week's a dissent of the Sto Real No Shell episode of our 814

5
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,000
for September 18, 2025.

6
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:29,760
This is your AW All-Out and WWE Russell Flauza, preview and predictions edition of

7
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,760
SRTU.

8
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,760
I am one after the show, I am Jeff Peck.

9
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,760
Join every single week like host, little Dr. Trey Franklin, Dr. Trey.

10
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:45,760
I saw a friend of yours in a former World Heavyweight Champion at Yankee Stadium this week in my friend.

11
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:50,760
I actually texted my friend and sent him the picture you sent me.

12
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:55,760
I didn't know about the former World Champion you saw.

13
00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:01,760
It's amazing how much attention a guy in a crop top of the belly hanging out really does get

14
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,760
the walking through the crowd at Yankee Stadium.

15
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,760
So yeah, I mean that's just like not a normal day.

16
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,760
It was the Savannah bananas, which sometimes it could be a normal day at Yankee Stadium.

17
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,760
I went to go check out the Savannah bananas.

18
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,760
I hadn't known a couple weeks prior.

19
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:23,760
I think we were talking about it off air, I was going to go to the show and you told me that one of your friends is a man-an-a.

20
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:27,760
He goes by what, "rad-bod"? Is that his character name for the...

21
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,760
Yeah, I think so. That's what's on his hat.

22
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:34,760
It just says "rad-bod" on his hat, but I know his name is Mikey.

23
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,760
I don't know. I don't know his man-an-a name.

24
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:44,760
I don't know if he just said "rad-bod" or if it's actually if he does just Mikey, like "spirit squad type"

25
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:48,760
I don't know if the male cheerleaders have their own "spirit squad" names.

26
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:58,760
I don't know how that works, but yeah, a long time wrestling independent manager and then got hooked up with the bananas.

27
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,760
And next thing I know I see them out there doing cheerleading for the Savannah bananas.

28
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:07,760
I'm like, "that is the crazy and fun transition in the entertainment world."

29
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,760
And probably make some decent money. Did he write back to you?

30
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,760
No, he's big timing me now.

31
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:20,760
Wow, see what happens? I guess there's a couple independent wrestlers that are on that man-an-a team.

32
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,760
Yeah, but I haven't sat down and gone through it.

33
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,760
I know because Mikey posts all of his stuff all the time.

34
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,760
And then I think I saw him on Fallon one night.

35
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,760
They had the banana cheerleaders on Jimmy Fallon, I believe it was, and I saw him on there.

36
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,760
So ever since then I feel like...

37
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:46,760
He used to be known as Coach Mikey. He was the manager of the ugly ducklings, Colby Carinos, old independent tag team.

38
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:51,760
But ever since he got a bit as... I guess he got a little big time for all of us, small time guys.

39
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,760
Hey, you got to see the same people you go up as you come down.

40
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,760
So, Radbod, Coach Mikey, whatever you're going by now, shame on you.

41
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,760
And then the world of weight champion was Damien Priest.

42
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:19,760
Yeah, I never thought I would say this into a microphone on a wrestling podcast, but I watched Damien Priest blindfolded crawling on all fours of the Yankee Stadium infield grass looking for a golden banana.

43
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,760
And I just want to let that sit for a little bit.

44
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:31,760
Yeah, I was thinking like when you said, "On all fours crawling around," I'm like, "Well, not until that Damien Priest sex tape comes out, then we might come across it."

45
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:38,760
And then you said, "Golden banana." Now I'm still wondering if it wasn't being filmed for some kind of Damien Priest sex tape.

46
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:43,760
Because that just sounds awfully weird in front of what, 65,000 people?

47
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:48,760
49,000. 49,000, it was a sellout. I mean, I was hyped for Damien Priest.

48
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,760
And then he got all fours looking for a golden banana blindfolded.

49
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,760
That's a large man to be on all fours looking for a golden banana.

50
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,760
Did he have Lola there with him as well?

51
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,760
No, because I think she was working in L Las Vegas for World's Collide.

52
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:04,760
Oh, yeah, that's right.

53
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:18,760
So the World's Collide. Yeah, so yeah, to see a man who was at 6'9", because I saw Damien Priest when he was punched by Martinez at a CZW show back 15 years ago, 12 years ago.

54
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:25,760
So he is a very large man. So it was kind of like to picture a man that sides on all fours.

55
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,760
Did he have the ponytail rocking or did he just have the hair?

56
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:33,760
He did. He did. All I could think of Dr. Trey is because he gets compared to the Undertaker rightfully sell.

57
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,760
There's a lot of his character that there is Undertaker stuff there.

58
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,760
I could never see the Dead Man doing what he did.

59
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,760
I can see the Dead Man now.

60
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,760
Do we? Maybe.

61
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,760
Maybe because he does LFG and all these other things.

62
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,760
So like, I can see Mark Callaway doing it, but yeah, there was a great story.

63
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,760
I think it was Bruce Pritchard's told about the Undertaker wrestling back when Deputy Wood used to still do like high school gymnasium.

64
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:07,760
Like in 94 and like them trying to figure out how to do the Undertaker's entrance in a high school gymnasium and it just being backstage pissed off.

65
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,760
Like why the hell am I here?

66
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:15,760
He basically like, I forgot who it was that called out couldn't make the show and Vince called taker.

67
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,760
As his taker was still relatively new to WF.

68
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,760
He came in and then was like, this is going to ruin the character though.

69
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:27,760
He was there better never be a videotape of this thing that comes out.

70
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:32,760
He was trying to stay in character with the entire time he was pissed off and threatening Pritchard and everybody else.

71
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:39,760
But yeah, I could not see any version of Undertaker on all fours in Yankee Stadium.

72
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,760
Crowley, I wonder if he'd have to take the hat off if he's trying to find the Golden Banana.

73
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,760
Maybe, maybe. So that way the hat doesn't fall off.

74
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:51,760
And there is no easier way to do a second way here from this, but I'm going to give a shot anyway.

75
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaking of the Undertaker, looking completely different.

76
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,760
I watched a press conference on Friday and we talked about this on last week's show.

77
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,760
It got leaked out Friday morning.

78
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:09,760
There's a press conference in Las Vegas with Triple H and one of the heads of the Saudi Arabian government in the background.

79
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:15,760
Now a near full white goatee beard and blue glasses.

80
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:20,760
I don't know why he's doing that was the dead man himself, the Undertaker.

81
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:30,760
And the purpose of that press conference, Dr. Trey was to announce that WrestleMania 43 in 2027 will be held in Rehad Saudi Arabia.

82
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:36,760
This is a historic first for WrestleMania WT WWE will take its biggest annual show outside of North America for the first time.

83
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,760
Reflecting the company is pushed to become a truly global brand.

84
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:47,760
It is part of the massive Saudi partnership as it fits into Saudi Arabia's vision 2030 in the long term WWE/Saudi deal.

85
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:54,760
Or you have Crown Jewel greatest Royal Rumble, Royal Rumble 2026 will be there with big financial incentives and government backing.

86
00:06:54,760 --> 00:07:02,760
The global fan and talent impact of this is going to be interesting because we should be expecting an international heavy card, possible returns and legends.

87
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,760
And logistical questions like travel, time zones, climate.

88
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:11,760
I guess this could be the first WrestleMania like midday or in breakfast time in the United States.

89
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,760
And that could shape the build and live presentation.

90
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:23,760
There will be a cultural and political spotlight on this event as WWE now must balance its entertainment style with local norms and anticipated human rights criticisms.

91
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:28,760
But it's taking place at Saudi Arabia while showing how it will stage women's matches and storylines.

92
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:35,760
And then lastly, the business and future implications here expect a record setting gate for this.

93
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,760
It expect record setting in revenue.

94
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,760
I think Saudi Arabia is literally going to be backing up the breakstruck for this.

95
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:47,760
It could open the door for more WrestleMania as a broad as well in London, Tokyo if Riyadh proved successful.

96
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,760
This is a huge deal, Dostray.

97
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:57,760
I think you and I on last week's show had basically come to grips that at some point this was the expectation.

98
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:05,760
Even prior to the story coming out, I think most fans have softened on WWE going to Riyadh.

99
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:20,760
Then when it was first announced in like 2018 and they were making those shows and those shows felt so completely out of place like when they had a random sumo wrestler because somebody in the Saudi Arabian government wanted Yokezuna there and Yokezuna is no longer with us.

100
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:26,760
They have felt more like WWE shows and with a blick that I can't really tell the difference.

101
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:35,760
But this is a massive deal, Dostray. For the very first time, WrestleMania will be outside of North America and will be held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

102
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,760
Your thoughts, my friend.

103
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,760
So yeah, we talked about last week.

104
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:48,760
Like it's with as much, you know, at the Royal Rumble going out there in here in January in 2026, which is really what four months away.

105
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,760
It's like right around the corner.

106
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,760
You know, we're talking about how crazy this year has gone by.

107
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:59,760
Like it was kind of like the in a way like they're going to take a shot. They're going to take a chance and I don't.

108
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,760
I think on one hand, it's a very calculated risk financially. They're going to do great.

109
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:09,760
You know, you mentioned that back of the Brings trucks, they're going to be opening up the oil wells, whatever you want to call it.

110
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,760
They're going to financially really, really well.

111
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,760
The balance is going to be the social impact of it.

112
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:24,760
And how much blowback are they going to get? And right now it's been nominal and best because it's still a year and a half out.

113
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,760
But it's one of those things where it's like, you know, there's going to be pushback.

114
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:29,760
There's going to be a blowback.

115
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:35,760
We don't know what the social climate is going to be, you know, when WrestleMania season comes around when they get ready for Saudi.

116
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:45,760
So it's a calculated risk that, hey, the upside of the financial gains and impact on the region, impact internationally.

117
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:51,760
You can now start kind of gauging global gates for WrestleMania and other errors like you mentioned off this one.

118
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:59,760
But is it going to outweigh the social blowback? And I think in that level, that's kind of why that press conference at times, Jeff, when you looked at it and you saw everybody there standing there.

119
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,760
It looked like a hostage situation at times.

120
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,760
Like nobody, like nobody looked like they were super excited to be standing there.

121
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:11,760
I think that's why Taker had his glasses on. Beyond. It looked like she was about to get kidnapped at any moment.

122
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:20,760
I love Morgan especially. Yeah, like live just looks scared out of her wits. I don't think she's seen that many headdresses since, you know, Marty growl a couple years ago.

123
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:25,760
And Shawn Michaels just, I mean, with his cross eyes, I couldn't ever figure out who he was looking at anyway.

124
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:34,760
So it just, it looked awkward and strange and it felt, I don't, like if you listen to triple H's announcement, even that felt a little forced.

125
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:46,760
Like it just, he didn't seem like exuberant in making the announcement. It felt a little robotic, but I think there's a bouncing that because there are a lot of guys who don't like going to Saudi.

126
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,760
And there's a lot of guys who like to pay house from going to Saudi.

127
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:55,760
So you're not only balancing the social impact, but you're also balancing the in-house impacted of as well.

128
00:10:55,760 --> 00:11:01,760
But then again, if a guy like Sammy Zane can turn around where, you know, seven years ago, he didn't want to go do it at all.

129
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,760
And now he's the most beloved person that rolls out to a Saudi event and he appreciates it.

130
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:15,760
Then, you know, just roll if you can see how it plays out. So, and I don't know, but I really don't know if I want to 9 a.m. Russell media.

131
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,760
I don't know, I don't know if I'm there yet.

132
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:23,760
I mean, because here's the other thing, like you're talking, you know, April and Saudi Arabia.

133
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:30,760
I mean, you guys better be indoors and figure that out because otherwise you're going to be outside like a 110 degree heat.

134
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:36,760
Trying to have wrestling matches and you're going to have people passing out because there's a lot of guys on that roster who are of my age.

135
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,760
I found out, by the way, Brock Lesnar one month younger than me, by the way.

136
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,760
Wow. Does that make you feel old?

137
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,760
I don't know because he knows I'm tired.

138
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,760
Well, because seeing as one month older than me and Brock is one month younger.

139
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,760
So seeing as born in April, I was born in May. Brock was born in June.

140
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,760
So I was like, what's weird. I'm like writing the buildings guys.

141
00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:06,760
Yeah, I mean, I got a kid in college. I already felt all this it was, but seeing Cena on the retirement tour and Lesnar right there with him, I'm like, yeah, I am old.

142
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:14,760
All right, cool. For the first time ever, Jeff, playing a sports video game instead of putting my own name in the game, I put my sons.

143
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,760
Wow. Okay. Yeah, that made me feel old.

144
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,760
Hey, we all get there at some point. So yeah, I mean, this is a big deal.

145
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:27,760
I'm not going to sit here and pretend that I will talk about the political climate of Saudi Arabia and the impact that has in United States.

146
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:40,760
I think there are a lot of different angles there that you could potentially take with a lot of historical impact, especially stuff that anniversary wise, we just went through in the last week or two.

147
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:50,760
And then, you know, the softening of Saudi Arabia, you know, you point out Sami Zayn, which he was someone that was completely against going there and he softened his stats.

148
00:12:50,760 --> 00:13:06,760
And I'm sure he has discussed why I find him to be a good brahminer of political social stuff that goes on. I don't think Sami Zayn goes there if he was being forced to, but if he had like good reason to go there.

149
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:13,760
So maybe he sees what Saudi Arabia is trying to do with their 2030 project and is embracing it.

150
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:23,760
And I think he's the type of the person that would suggest embracing change if people are trying to make that change overall. Obviously a lot is shed it away.

151
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:31,760
Since this partnership with the way we started in Saudi Arabia, we went from no women on the card to having women on the card.

152
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:42,760
And that was a big deal because that's not something that they typically allowed in their culture back in 2018 and pretty recently.

153
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:50,760
It's going to be a very interesting WrestleMania because backing up the Brinkstruck, they're going to try to pull legends out of retirement.

154
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,760
A lot of names have been rumored out there. The rocks don't cold Steve Austin.

155
00:13:54,760 --> 00:14:06,760
I don't think that there's any money in the world that lures undertaker Shawn Michaels out of retirement. Triple H isn't healthy to perform in my understanding is.

156
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:11,760
So I don't think it's him. I think it's like very limited to the two guys I mentioned the rock and Steve Austin.

157
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:24,760
But the reports are out there that fans should expect this to be like an all out push by Saudi Arabia and WWE to make this WrestleMania memorable and special.

158
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,760
I'm sure there's lots of fans out there that are upset by this.

159
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:36,760
I do feel bad for a lot of the conventions, Dr. Trey, because they're not going to be able to make money off the backs of WrestleMania like they typically do, which I think is great for wrestling fans and wrestlers alike.

160
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:42,760
Who knows if there's going to be independent shows. I think I've read GCW has been approached about doing a show in Saudi Arabia.

161
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:50,760
But I mean, let's just be honest here, like do they have fans in Saudi Arabia in GCW? Maybe they do.

162
00:14:50,760 --> 00:15:03,760
I don't know if there's a desire for that. And then just the overall travel and time impacts at Dr. Trey Point out where, you know, I don't know if I want a WrestleMania 9 AM.

163
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:11,760
Well, I think Crown Jewel, we'll see with a Royal Rumble in about four months from now. What time in that airs?

164
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:15,760
I think they typically air about noon or 1 PM on the East Coast.

165
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:24,760
So these are going to be like daytime WrestleMania in 2027, Dr. Trey. I don't know if, so if it's 1 o'clock on East, it's going to be like 10 AM on the West Coast.

166
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:30,760
It's a huge change. I think if this was six years ago, I'd be really pissed off.

167
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:37,760
But I think I'm sitting here six years later and again, Dr. Trey, I'm just not surprised by this.

168
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:48,760
I figured this would happen at some point. And it's unfortunate because I don't think many American fans are going to go out of their way to travel to Saudi Arabia to check this WrestleMania out.

169
00:15:48,760 --> 00:16:05,760
I don't think many American fans would feel comfortable doing it. I mean, it's still, you know, there's still that, you know, Islamophobia, if you will, of like going to a Middle Eastern country with, you know, multiple fighting and battles going on.

170
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:12,760
And do you feel safe as an American traveling to Saudi Arabia for WrestleMania? I think that will be, you know, on people's minds.

171
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:28,760
And then that's what I say, we feel like I wish they were doing London first. I wish, I wish, I mean, Paris probably deserves one more than anybody else because that crowd is just basically turned, you know, what their perception of European fans would be on its ear.

172
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:36,760
Like I was kind of hoping Paris would get one first, but like I understand why they were they coming from and I do feel bad for a lot of the independent promotions.

173
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:50,760
But if I am AEW, this is an opportunity for me to counter program WrestleMania and do it in prime time and use that all these other promotions that typically piggyback off WWE to piggyback off of us.

174
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:59,760
And maybe men some fences or create some cross brand stuff. There's a lot of AEW guys who work, you know, wrestling revolver and other shows like that.

175
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:10,760
So here's a chance to actually find a spot in the United States and counter program WrestleMania because if they're going off that early in the day, you have prime time to yourself.

176
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:18,760
And I'm sure that's something Tony cotton those guys have looked at. So it might be a day where we get 14, 15 hours of wrestling,

177
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:26,760
watching WrestleMania and then into AEW live forever, die tomorrow. I don't know what they're going to name it, it'd be something kind of crazy.

178
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:34,760
But that's I would look at if I'm AEW, I'm looking, this is a huge opportunity capitalize on them kind of abandoning America for that weekend.

179
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:44,760
And look, we can cross promote with all these independent promotions and do all this crazy stuff and have our own conventions and have another star cast or whatever you want to do.

180
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:50,760
And counter program everything and create another little buzz going on in the American market.

181
00:17:50,760 --> 00:18:00,760
It's funny that you say that because earlier today on Thursday, they had the AW all out media call and Tony cotton was asked about W going to Saudi Arabia in 2027.

182
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:09,760
Does AEW foresee themselves doing counter programming? He teased it. He expects that in 2027, there's going to be a big AEW revolution show.

183
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:17,760
That's where revolution sits in there. And then later on in the media call, Dr. Trey, it was like asked of him when he ever come to the Roger Center.

184
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:35,760
And he said to Roger Center, we great for all in and all out or maybe even an AW revolution. So he I don't think that they're going to do like this big announcement over the weekend saying, hey in 2027, we're going to be doing a big AW revolution show in the Roger Center with the Toronto Blue J's play, the old Skydome.

185
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:41,760
The same thing that's going on in your head appears to be going on in the head of AW right now as well.

186
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,760
Well, I mean, not surprising because me and Tony can share a brain.

187
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:52,760
It's just it's just it's logical. I mean, that's I mean, literally, you know this, I work in the marketing field like that's kind of what I do.

188
00:18:52,760 --> 00:19:03,760
And so, you know, I look at this and go, hey, how can we brand? How can we get our brand out there to more eyes? And if I'm looking at it like, hey, this is a weekend where people are going to know about WrestleMania.

189
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:17,760
But it's going to be overseas somewhere. Hey, here's a chance for us to really kind of grab those mainstream casual fans that we've been lacking by putting on a two day show feet and then have all the conventions come in.

190
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:29,760
Have all the independent promotions come in tie all of that stuff together and really expand our base in the US even more or Toronto or London or whatever location they want to run in.

191
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:57,760
I would run it in Chicago or I would run it in New York or Philadelphia one of those die hard markets where you can get a good size stadium really pack it out and let everybody like run your conventions in the stadium, run your like your local independent shows, their piggyback and off you off the little venues around it and just create like a three or four day weekend for wrestling fans in the United States for those people who feel like WWE abandoned them by going to Saudi Arabia.

192
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:04,760
It's funny to bring this up because over the last couple days and you know you indicated before about the ticket prices WWE.

193
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:20,760
WWE mentioning WrestleMania being out of out of seas. We talked about the ticket prices on last week's show or the last couple weeks on the podcast where they keep rising and this week ricochet and then Tony Khan in the All Out Media call.

194
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:39,760
They were asked about if there is an opportunity for fans now to go to AW if they feel like they're being priced out of wrestling and and Tony Khan said that AW ticket pricing is designed to be family friendly and the company has always been about affordable being affordable for families.

195
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:59,760
That is very appealing and it's funny because I think it's not in the center right now but there is a pendulum shift where you're starting to see fans gravitate back towards AW the people that may have been on the outs like myself from AW just because of poor programming poor business decisions by the company what have you.

196
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:27,760
And it's starting to shift back because the program has been very good the content has been really entertaining and now they're appealing themselves to the bottom dollar of the fans and most fans don't have the flexibility to spend 500 bucks for 300 level seats to watch a Monday night Raw like that's just not suitable and doable and for TKL to say what they said over the last couple weeks about you know we are trying to maximize our bottom dollar is not appealing and not what professional wrestling was was built on.

197
00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:41,760
So is this an opportunity right now Dr. Trey all in company and we can talk about what we just discussed with recipe for the three going to re odd the ticket prices discussion we had last week Tony Khan indicating that they want to be more family friendly is.

198
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:48,760
Could AW regain market share by pricing themselves as the family friendly wrestling company in the United States.

199
00:21:48,760 --> 00:22:17,760
Oh absolutely because it is something we talked about with Vince you know last week showing last week show about Vince always want to keep ticket prices affordable not just for the die hard fans but for those families to come to show because that's how you build a base you get the kids liking your product and they stay with you and I both became resting fans at early ages and we've kind of kept our legions is to those promotions all the way throughout like I was watching nitro all the way.

200
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:35,760
And I was watching nitro all the way until it ended because that's what I grew up on you watch WWE since you know the late 80s early 90s I mean that that's where we you'll get our fans from like you like I'm a cubs fan because I started watching the cubs when I was seven years old and developed loyalty to it.

201
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:56,760
And present yourself not only as an alternative to WWE were yeah they do more stick and you know more stories were more action were more high flying but we're also family friendly and that's one thing they may have to work on is the family friendly side of it but you know we cater to families we want families to attend our shows and make it an event for the whole family to enjoy.

202
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:17,760
And then those kids will be lifelong fans of a w because that's what they grew up watching and that's what they grew up going to in in person so there is that opportunity to once again expand that base but also start creating those lifelong young fans because look we all get older you and I were talking off air about this we all get older we all get a little curve more

203
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:46,760
curmudgeoning we all like with life going on you start losing touch with the wrestling it's time because dear God the kids got a soccer game or your wife's you know makes you go house shop shopping you know on a Thursday night at six o'clock at night like things like that happen where you can't just tune into a show like you do when you're younger so you have to have another generation coming up behind to fill in the gaps and this is a great opportunity for a w to capitalize on that by becoming a maybe a little more family friendly but once again they are.

204
00:23:46,760 --> 00:24:15,760
They'll have to reduce a little bit of the blood and go at times just because do you really want your six year old watching John mockery bleed like a stuck big or puncturing Darby Alan Deer or you have a like one of those like chopsticks in his head like a skewer the barbecuer that's there you go yeah yeah oh this ticket was so affordable this is such a family friendly company honey and then we go to the show it's like what the hell am I watching you just don't have to go to Texas.

205
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:34,760
Deathmatch yeah I mean at least Cody Rose isn't running headfirst in the walls now for no reason like you did in the early days yeah or yeah a sandwich of ours heads not smack and a cross or Matt Hardy's head isn't smacking off of the pavement yeah there's still a ways to go to be completely family family

206
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:44,760
friendly for a w but listen there is market share for that I mean we talked about the earlier part of the show Savannah bananas they are family friendly their tickets are 40 60 100 bucks max.

207
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:54,760
And there's no sales tax there's no shipping costs if you buy online everything is what their company is called which is fans first and there is a lot of credence of that and obviously Savannah

208
00:24:54,760 --> 00:25:04,760
bananas is baseball team while they're doing a lot of fun stuff that major league baseball isn't touching there is a market for an alternative that makes it worth the fans bottom dollar whether

209
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:14,760
it's for families or just the fans in general and there is a real opportunity for a w to take advantage of that should they continue to be putting out great content while making their tickets still very affordable

210
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:24,760
but case in point not to trade if you want to be family friendly and you want better pricing I know it was the right step forward but to have an HBO max subscription only to pay for the pay for the

211
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:39,760
3399 I don't necessarily know if if that's the direction I want to go quite yet yeah I'm still working out the logistics of that myself like you and I talked about this a couple of weeks ago like I actually have an HBO max account it came free

212
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:53,760
with my you know sell service with AT&T but do I want to pay that extra money for a w pay for you I'm still struggling trying to figure out the ESPN Hulu Disney plus bundle to like like I'm on a plan it wasn't the right plan I got a

213
00:25:53,760 --> 00:26:04,760
just the plan but my account was through Hulu in the only way I get this is I have to cancel the Hulu to then sign up with Disney but like a lot of this stuff is all over the place but I still think

214
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:17,760
AW getting on the HBO max platform and having the ability to stream their pay for you's directly off that and not opposed to you know was a bleacher report that they're on at one time and all these other

215
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:27,760
weird services that they were on at least it's a strong streaming service and it's giving fans the option to actually make a choice and not have to worry about is

216
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:36,760
it going to cut out is it going to buff or we'll see like this is HBO max HBO has been doing boxing events for 50 years like they know how to put an

217
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:44,760
event on do stuff like that they have the production capabilities is just a question of as a wrestling fan do I find the value in making the

218
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:57,760
extra 30 or 40 dollar purchase based on what the content is going to be so I applaud them for at least making a step in the right direction they just have to make that step a little bit smaller and not such a broad jump.

219
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:06,760
We will preview AW all out here in just a little bit one of the members of one of the main matches at AW all out is one Kyle Fletcher.

220
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:22,760
We spoke about him on the rise being the face in future of AW on last week show and then I saw a bunch of comments and quotes out there this week Dr. Dre Cody road speak at ESPN said that brawn breakers the future of WWE both Tommy Dreamer on

221
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:42,760
Busset open radio and then Adam Colplin in a separate interview pointed out that Kyle Fletcher is the future of AW they feel like because of the ability that they you know call Fletcher brings to the ring so I ask you if you look at WWE and you look at AW who are some wrestlers that you are putting your money into now if you

222
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:57,760
want to invest in them if they were the stock market as the future of wrestling in the next three to five years for both WWE and AW.

223
00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:26,760
I'm trying to figure I really like Oba Femi. I think he's a freak athlete along the lines of what a Brock Lesnar was at that age and I think those guys are such rare unicorns and one thing we've seen with him that you know I always give you crap for the Lars Sullivan hype you gave him when he was in NXT is he seems to have the make up for it as well.

224
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:40,760
Those would be my three on the WWE side AW Kyle Fletcher obviously is at the top of the list I'm trying to find guys who are under 30 in my head I think a couple guys like I think Sam is Sam he's still under 30 Sam a

225
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:55,760
lot of time in the car I believe so so I still really like Sammy and I know he's been booked horribly in AW but I still have faith in Sammy govara.

226
00:28:55,760 --> 00:29:04,760
Trying to think if there's anybody else is really popped I don't want to go off the Darby Orange Cassidy I don't want to go to pillars because they're kind of already established I know Sam is kind of

227
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:19,760
trying to think of their somebody to cash to cash to cash to cash to cash to cash to cash to cash to cash to I can't pronounce his name but I'm a huge I really love his work as well

228
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:29,760
and then I have some I have some guys on there that I love just because I know them really well like Blake Christian Lee Johnson

229
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:46,760
what am I what am I good friends had a hell of a performance in a tag match against FTR Adam Priest I love those guys but they're so super talented I just don't know if they'll get the right leverage to move up I'm trying to think if I'm missing anybody who else who's on your list Jeff.

230
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:58,760
So for WWE I've brought break in Bronson Reed I think there's a reason why these guys are being earmarked obviously Oba Femi as well I have Javon Evans or Javon Evans I should say.

231
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:10,760
I have Joe Hendry because they're starting to face him into WWE the reports are at the right now that is time with TNA is slowly coming to an end and then on the female side I have Soul Ruka who I absolutely love watching and Jada Parker.

232
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:27,760
Yeah I love Soul Ruka I do still like Colony Jordan she's on my list as well Jada Parker for me I you're higher on her than I am I think she's potentially really good I just I don't know I actually really like a little vice too I think she's got something to her as well.

233
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:36,760
I didn't think about the women on AEW like I'm still a big fan of Julia Julia hard sky blue I love those creepy gothics.

234
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:37,760
Fecula.

235
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,760
Fecula who's on my AEW list.

236
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:52,760
Yeah she's Fanta out like Alex Windsor as well I think I think AEW like both the depth of the young women in wrestling is maybe better than ever been across both companies.

237
00:30:52,760 --> 00:31:06,760
Yeah no I agree the women's women's wrestling in general is the most healthy on both brands both companies I should say in general I mean just in professional wrestling alone like the women's division is super super great.

238
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:13,760
I also have Kyle Fletcher I have Kenos Kitsukesha my AEW list and I also have Kevin I doctor I'm a big Kevin I guy.

239
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:35,760
Yeah I think it's going to be one of the things like when you're in a tag team early on you kind of not I want to get lost in the shuffle but you don't get to see their range yet like I I don't know how good is he on a microphone how good is he in like I know he's had a couple of like mid major type matches where he was featured on AEW but I'm like.

240
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:47,760
Like the Kyle Fletcher stuff coming up this week or coming up at all out like it's Kyle Fletcher in a main event World title match that's a testing spot for him.

241
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:56,760
We've seen Kenosuke doing the G1 and all that stuff so he's been in those like Kevin I mean the biggest match he's had was that triple threat tag match so far so I want to see him.

242
00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:12,760
Maybe in a singles role getting feature more so I can see how much range he has as well. Let's talk about AEW all out it's a Saturday from the Scotiabaker Arena Toronto on Ontario Canada and of course if you have wrestlers that you feel like you would invest in for the next 35 years feel free to drop us line.

243
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:18,760
patreon.com/srtupodcast or facebook.com/listelrealthoshow

244
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:27,760
Looking at all out doctorate you've got Hagneman page versus Kyle Fletcher for the World Championship if the Donkowski family interferes Fletcher is a qualified instructor the TNT title.

245
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:36,760
You've got Tony Storm defending the women's championship against Jamie Hader Christat Liner and Tecla because it's go caught a defensive unified championship in a triple threat match against Kenosuke Takeshka and Mascarra Dorada.

246
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:48,760
Brodino versus the Young Box Jet Speed and Josh Alexander Hatch and Sarah on a tag team Championship ladder match Mercedes 1 a to defend the TBS championship against Rio Moxley versus Darby Allen in a coffin match.

247
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:57,760
MJ F versus Mark Bursko in a tables and thumbtacks no DQ match Eddie Kakes in returning from injury for the first time in almost 15 months takes on Big Bill.

248
00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:06,760
C and C Adam Copeland and Christian Cage take on FTR in a dream match and the hurts and a kid taking on ricochet in the gates of agony in a trio match.

249
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,760
Dr. Trey what matches stand out to you and which one are you most excited for.

250
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:18,760
I mean Hagneman Fletcher just with everything's been going on it's been a really well done program kind of put together I don't say last minute but just.

251
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:35,760
You know short couple week build I'm really excited about that one because you know and Hagneman was the guy that you and I talked about for years is being like the face of the company and then he finally he's now finally getting his chance to kind of run with it again and just want to see where Kyle Fletcher measures up on this.

252
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:47,760
The triple threat match with O'Cotta Takeshka and I can't even why am I having a hard time pronouncing name Mascarra Dorada are you have a destroy almost that I almost said Margar.

253
00:33:47,760 --> 00:34:01,760
Tuscana okay are you do you want to take a pause you take it a stroke you know I know I think it's like I told you earlier like this is a lot of stress going on my brain well you are diabetics I'm worried about you.

254
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,760
Yeah no no no you're just well I'll point out to you.

255
00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:10,760
I just have a hard time with like some of these foreign names at times though that's usually my sex dude.

256
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:26,760
Yeah I'm I'm I'm I'm excited about that match because we really haven't seen O'Cotta and to catch Doug or to catch go at it like this and then you know adding in you know the third person is it is going to be really energy match.

257
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:33,760
The Darby Moxley matches in because we haven't had a coffin match since Darby and Jack Perry and we know how well that one wins.

258
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:48,760
So I don't know where you go with this that does Mox go in the coffin and Mox goes away for a while and we have a leader list death writers for a while because I don't how do you have Darby loses match he just came back after climbing a frickin mountain.

259
00:34:48,760 --> 00:35:02,760
So I'm interested that one those are in the women's match because we really haven't had anybody step up to the Tony storm level yet but putting her in a four way match is that an easy way to get the belt off of her.

260
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:07,760
So I'm interested to see how they book that match coming out of it.

261
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:17,760
I mean we've seen Tony have her issues with a fecla Julia Hart sky blue a little bit but is that a way for them to get the belt off of her.

262
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:24,760
On and somebody else and then have Tony chase the belt again because as much as we all love Tony storm is champion we love when Tony's on the hunt also.

263
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:34,760
For me the matches I'm really looking forward to the ones that Dr. Trader mentioned Adam Copeland and Christian Cage versus FCR obviously three match there I'm on pump CC and see.

264
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:42,760
It's the first time they've tied together and I like over 15 years I want to say they've had a couple runs there in 2010 2011 when they were reunited just before edge retired.

265
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:54,760
Cannot wait to see Eddie Kingston back in the ring it's it's a long long long time coming and then the Mercedes Monet Rio stuff I'm usually a big defender of Mercedes Monet the the TBS shape.

266
00:35:54,760 --> 00:36:18,760
She up to broader is kind of getting. It's often forgotten that she is the the very first AW women's world champion her time with the company is so odd because she is around for a little bit then disappears for like two years.

267
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:24,760
I don't know what to make of the real return I'm excited but it's like is she really an AW wrestler.

268
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:33,760
Yeah I was trying to do that out too because I was like I saw the tag match with with Mercedes and in any soccer against Rio and Alex Windsor and I'm like.

269
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:45,760
I know we just saw Alex Windsor and Mercedes Monet like recently I kind of want to see that again but you know wasn't real also the first two time AW women's champion as long as you know I don't actually held it twice.

270
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,760
I thought she got it back aside. I think you maybe think of your car sheet.

271
00:36:49,760 --> 00:37:03,760
That might be what it is okay but yeah like the the Japanese women in general in AW a book's weird because it's kind of like you know like you mentioned a car sheet like she shows up she has like a two month run and then we don't see her for like a year and a half.

272
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:16,760
And then it's kind of hard for the crowd to get really hyped up about somebody when they don't have the reputation of you know one of the mainstream legendary stars that can be gone for two years and make a return it's like oh yeah there's Rio.

273
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:24,760
Yeah and then it's like wait she was here she's gone again so that one by the way I wanted to ask you one question about the CNC FTR match.

274
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:25,760
Okay.

275
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:29,760
Do we get a for those of you with flash photography moment.

276
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:47,760
They haven't done it yet I think that'd be great. I actually thought this match should have should main event all out and my understanding based on the media call today is that this is going to open all out which is also a great opener but I wanted to make a case that this is the this should actually main event all out Toronto.

277
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:54,760
I mean you got cop and Christian making a return to Toronto tagging for the first time in 15 years.

278
00:37:54,760 --> 00:38:08,760
Yeah. Could be the last time I tag together in Toronto very well very well I mean in Toronto yes I'm saying I know I don't I think they'll get a tag title run here before long but it might be the last time they get to tag in Toronto so yeah like to me.

279
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:23,760
But then again like when we did Trish in Charlotte as summer slam in Toronto that wasn't the main event so I guess there's like if you're going to have an open the show it's going to get that crowd super hyped up I just hate to be over spalling that match.

280
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:51,760
Yeah yeah I mean it's it's you're got a hard act to follow um I don't know I don't know if they do the five seconds for flash photography because that's really a WWE thing but I'm here for it if they do I'm happy they're back I mean this is for me nostalgia runs coming in so and plus it gets FTR the only other dream match I want to see that is them in the unbox and that's one other match I guess I should say Dr. Trey basically we're covering them all now but the tag the tag team championship ladder match.

281
00:38:51,760 --> 00:39:07,760
That could be match of the night at all out. Yeah I don't once again though like I just feel like the like some of these some of the booking for the show like not it's not that some bad card like all these matches look really really good because hell.

282
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:13,760
For for a podcast that said we weren't really going to cover eight of you pay per views that much and we just covered the entire card.

283
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:26,760
But some of them just kind of feel like excuses to move belts off of people so I mean the only match we didn't mention was our syndicate versus regor chain against a magazine and I just mentioned is I think we covered the entire show now.

284
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:35,760
Yeah there you go and that kind of speaks to the way that a W's going right now where we're spending more time focusing on their pay per views like all out this Saturday on HBO Max.

285
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:44,760
And then finally W. Dr. Trey W. We wrestle. Paloosa preview predictions that said I from the game bridge field house at Indianapolis Indiana it will be airing on ESPN.

286
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:49,760
It's the debut for PLEs on ESPN or do you have a way to watch it yet Dr. Trey.

287
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:59,760
I'm working on it my wife and I said that when we got home after house shopping tonight we were going to make the switch over and get it all straight now so that way I can watch it but Saturday night.

288
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:04,760
Rock a city show so I got have to watch it on Sunday on demand on demand.

289
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:14,760
It can't be any worse than peacocks on demand so hopefully let's go through the card here Dr. Trey of the usos versus Bronson Reed and Bronn Breaker the Bronn bronze.

290
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:24,760
I am going to go with the usos in this one. I think you bring them back together to get the W so I'm going to go with the usos over the Bronn bronze.

291
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:40,760
I am going to take the Bronn bronze because I think they need a win and we we've seen the kind of the the the the the the the the LA night saga play into this I think Nike get involved again so I'm going to take the Bronn bronze getting the win.

292
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:47,760
Next matchers Eosky versus Stephanie Vaakor for the vacant women's world championship Dr. Trey who do you like this one?

293
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:53,760
Well I'm going Stephanie Vaakor because I think the osca hango gets involved so I'm going to take Stephanie getting the win.

294
00:40:53,760 --> 00:41:03,760
I like you I'm going in that direction and we also saw Stephanie and reatees this past Monday I love you but I don't think Eo needs another run with the title and I think Stephanie is champion.

295
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:10,760
We really really fun and I think osca does get involved mix tag team match. We have CM Punk and AJ Lee versus Seth Rounds and Becky Lynch.

296
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:22,760
This is a very tough match to call Dr. Trey. God I I would back and forth on this one I'm going to go with Seth and Becky to win this match.

297
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:38,760
See I and I'm with you I went back and forth but then we got Becky laying out AJ on raw so then the booking 101 goes I'm going to give punk and AJ the win because then I think Becky beats AJ one on one later on.

298
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:42,760
So I'm going to punk and AJ getting the win in the mixed tag match.

299
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:48,760
And then next match here is Cody Rhodes to Fed the end of speed of WWE championship against Drew McAhtier who do you like in this one?

300
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:53,760
How many times can Drew lose title matches before people kind of give up on thinking Drew is going to win title matches?

301
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:55,760
He's he's been bulletproof so far.

302
00:41:55,760 --> 00:42:01,760
I mean he takes a little bit of time off comes back and then just reinvigorates himself.

303
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:14,760
Apparently the ambulances are coming to take me away because Jeff made a call about my diabetes. So if you hear the ambulance in the background what is I'm taking Cody just because it's wrestle polusa and not WrestleMania.

304
00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:16,760
So I'm going to take Cody retaining.

305
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:21,760
I like Dr. Trey and taking Cody Rhodes and we got a wrap that's up pretty quick before they take Dr. Trey away.

306
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:26,760
The main event match actually no this is not the main event match. This is actually going to open wrestle polusa.

307
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:40,760
It is John Cena versus Brock Lesnar. This is a tough one to call. I'm going to go with John Cena finally getting a victory over Brock Lesnar for the first time in like 14, 15 years because usually Brock kicks his ass every single time.

308
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:44,760
Yeah I'm in the same boat because I feel like if Brock gets a win you have to have a rematch.

309
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:51,760
You've seen a has to be Brock at some point and Cena's only got five dates left after the show.

310
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:56,760
Now I understand there's also the theory that Brock a win and right Cena off but then if Cena comes back we have to have a rematch.

311
00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:01,760
So I'm going to take Cena and then let him take his break afterwards. So I'll take Cena winning as well.

312
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:06,760
So there you go. There is definitely a wrestle polusa the debut for PLEs on ESPN.

313
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:13,760
