Get it right.
Sounds right.
I don't remember till the end.
Right.
Yeah.
I only remember in the beginning.
So CM Punk and AJ Lee one retention and one new intercontinental champion.
I thought they're both really good matches.
I thought it was the right move to move that title on to AJ and see what happens now moving
forward in the WrestleMania.
Whether or not we get back to Becky, we'll see.
We kind of concluded that it was going to be a really interesting plot twist if they
had Finn Balor capture the title.
But we already have our night two made events.
So slightly anticlimactic there.
What do you think of the results and the actual matches D.P.?
I think it was exactly what we expected with the retention and the new champ.
I like the, you know, I don't think there's anything super special with the matches, but
I like the storyline that they told, you know, Becky's continued downfall and, you know,
getting quote, I cheated out of matches and the referee, you know, causing her to lose
kind of things, not letting her use the term buckle, you know, all that kind of stuff,
you know, builds into that storyline and Becky, you know, we'll see where she goes and
how that's all going to kind of play out.
Love that AJ Lee is a champ.
She gets to put her name on that icy title and we'll be interesting going into WrestleMania
here.
I'll talk about that in a little bit, but definitely like that one.
And then yeah, CM Punk and Finn Balor just always delivered a really good and again, the
story telling there of Finn not wanting to cheat.
You know, wanting to do it all up on his own, not wanting the help of the judgment day.
Again, it's going to keep going into that whole story and where that may head in in line
with the three of the men that are in the judgment day going into WrestleMania.
So yeah, definitely excellent matches.
Definitely the most kind of obvious outcomes, I think of what we were expecting.
Rhea Ripley ends up winning the women's chamber match.
I thought all four matches were really good.
I enjoyed both chamber matches.
Maybe the men's a little bit more than the women's, but the women still put on a great
show.
I mean, we kind of had speculated it was going to be Tiffy or Rhea.
And I think obviously the bigger match up is Rhea versus Jade.
You got the two, you know, statue-esque, Amazon-esque, I mean, that in the most positive complementary
way of Rhea versus Jade.
And we haven't even seen them clash at all yet.
So this is just something completely fresh.
Yeah, two of the big powerhouses in the division, really excellent.
And you know, when Rhea lost the tag titles, I kind of was like, okay, we're kind of on
the wall there.
Yeah.
So that comment, right?
So yeah, Ripley winning, I know complaints at all, definitely about it.
So that should be a great matchup going into WrestleMania.
I'm really excited to see what they do.
Tiffy was the other option.
I thought they did really well with Raquel and this match too.
Like they showed off a lot of her power as well.
She had a couple of the big spots with like power bomb through the through one of the
chambers.
You know, you know, James, I thought looked pretty good in this match too.
She was kind of the odd woman out, got to kind of make a name for herself a little bit.
So I definitely enjoyed that and nothing wrong with having Rhea Ripley go after the title
on Smackdown.
Yeah, a little change there.
They did say goodbye on Raw to each other, you know, kind of closing their circle there.
So who knows, maybe someday we'll we'll visit that again and instead of, you know, this
cordial split, we might end up with the rematch that we thought we might be have been
getting.
But I'm okay with Rhea and Jade.
Let's talk about the men side.
We really did not see Randy Orton winning this, did we?
Not particularly.
We all kind of, we were leaning towards LA and I quite a bit on this one, eh?
Yeah, and I know like our last call topic kind of stops us from talking about why
Randy might have won here and why Drew might be champ and what may be happening Friday.
So we'll hold off on that for now, but I can't just, I can't argue with Randy Orton being
in the main event of night one though.
It's one of your biggest names.
It's one of your most notable names as well, right?
Like, even if like people may not know necessarily who Randy Orton is to a certain extent,
everybody knows what an RKO is.
Like, when Logan Paul first came into WWE, he, you know, got to know everybody.
He would tell Randy, like, you know, when I was a kid, I didn't know who you are, but
I knew what an RKO was because we were all doing them, you know, basically after the
Evan-Born spot, right?
So good for Randy, Randy has said he would like one more title run.
The guys that are up there with that many championships, there's always significance.
Can he break the tie with triple H?
Can he come within one of Flair, two of Cena, right?
Like, it's a great storyline.
Yeah, there's definitely no complaint with Randy Orton being there at, you know, no,
we had talked about potentially, you know, fatal four-way or something, you know, being
at, being in that mix as well with a couple of these guys.
So, you know, we don't, we still don't know exactly where that's going to lead or if
it will stay a one-on-one match, so, you know, that's still this find out and I'm excited
for that.
Everybody else still did really well in this match, too, to go a little further.
I mean, trick Williams came out awesome.
Javon Evans looked great.
You know, we got the high frog splash off the top of the chamber from them on this, on
the men's side, you know, their big spot.
Everybody looked pretty good in this match, too.
So that was, that was awesome coming out of there and then we also did get a good handful
of interference and figured out where the mask man was there, PC.
Well, the mask man in the end ended up being Seth Rollins, now the logic behind all of
this is a lot of guys who are from his wrestling school in Iowa is what I've heard.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Especially the first guy who got the mask pulled off with the dark hair.
Okay.
But.
That's cool.
Really cool.
Why not have Seth just have his own new faction, like you can't go back and be the vision.
The vision is pretty much one of the biggest disappointments in faction making history.
It's not necessarily their fault either.
It was a stupid name to begin with and that stupidity of that name kind of infected that that
faction and everybody's got hurt, right?
Like you're down to Logan Paul and Austin theory and Paul haven't got to be going.
Oh, hey.
Yeah.
What do you do with that?
What's going on here?
Well, I still got Logan Paul.
I don't know if I'll sit there you'll ever catch.
He may be one of those guys that has to leave to come to reach his full potential in
WWE and come back.
But Bronson reads her.
Obviously, Braun Breaker is going to be all past WrestleMania, otherwise you'd see some
kind of story going on there.
It's got to be looking like Seth Rollins and Logan Paul at WrestleMania.
I think at this point, that's where you're going.
I mean, I'm sure the initial plan was if Rollins was going to be healthy enough before
WrestleMania, that was going to be Rollins and Breaker at Mania, you know, him taking
on the vision.
Well, I mean, if Rollins didn't get hurt to begin with, it was going to be probably Roman
Reigns and Seth Rollins.
And they too made a bet.
That is true.
Kind of shifted that as well, yeah.
Like CM Punk probably would have never become champion.
I think they just they just they just picked the next biggest name to put on their biggest
match that makes all the money.
Like that's the seat filler.
Well, after Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns, it's pretty much CM Punk.
It's true.
I mean, yeah, last year was a triple threat, you know, this year it was, yeah, one-on-one.
Yeah, it's unfortunate.
It's unfortunate.
I can't say those three are bigger than I'd say those three are bigger ticket sellers
and even Cody Rhodes at this point.
I probably would agree at the, you know, right now in WWE.
Yeah, yeah.
I think so.
I think I think Cody's, what do you need to he'll turn, I think, or something?
You need something.
Well, so we're going to get to that.
We're going to get to that.
We left out a big part of this conversation, folks, because it's going to be our last
call topic today, which we've already told you about.
So let's let's talk about the crate and that can kind of lead into Monday Night Raw.
And then we'll take a commercial break and come back and do last call.
So we kind of speculated it was going to be Dan Hauser, right?
We kind of figured, like, I think AW froze Jericho's contract and extended it out.
Like, I think he's still under contract, probably, it could be speculation around the same
time next year heading in, like, to a survivor series, Royal Rumble season of Jericho going
to come back to him, because I still think WWE has interest because he's a guy that could
still have a match or two is amazing at selling angles and tickets as well.
And his hall of fame billing would be big.
They'd be, they wouldn't be, wouldn't be bad to have him be a commentator if they needed
it.
I don't know.
They're pretty solid there right now, but it's Dan Hauser.
How did you feel?
How did you catch raw?
Yeah, yes.
I'm not.
Yeah, I did.
Now I've been watched at 100%.
I watched enough of you know where I'm above it.
So tell me how disappointed you were at Dan Hauser's debut at Elimination Chamber or not,
and then tell me how you felt about his segment on raw.
And that'll kind of kick us into one of the big things that happened on raw.
Terrible to put that on Elimination Chamber, in my opinion.
That's a raw thing.
But at the time of what happened at Elimination Chamber, it was totally gobbledy googger.
Yes.
Yes.
That's a good one.
It was so disappointing.
It was so campy, it was so lame.
Where else is it here?
I'm trying to hold on.
Yeah.
The whole thing that was definitely a raw, rich debut, like there was no reason, unless
it was going to be some, let's look what we were thinking initially, like it was going
to be like, oh, maybe like Brock Lesnar, some big dudes going to be in there that shows
up now.
Not for this guy.
Right.
Not for this guy.
Oh, shock master.
DJ said shock master.
It goes above that, I think above that, not much, not much better.
How did you enjoy a segment on raw?
I thought it was fun.
I think he's, I think he can be entertaining as hell.
I just, they got to use him, right?
Like he just, he doesn't look like he stacks up very well.
But they use them, they use them right on raw is bit with doing the cursing and actually
going to make, if they're going to make it a thing, like doing the courier curse, and
that with the judgment day, could get over very nicely and could be, could be a cool
little side segment of something different, I think.
Think about a company that WWE recently purchased that they are recently started working
with on a larger scale where he will carry so much into it, triple A. Why wouldn't Dan
Housen be dom now for the triple A mega title and head down to triple A and do a bunch
of different stuff?
Like, that's over the top wrestling, acting, storytelling, that's a perfect place for
it.
And like you said, if the curse is going to be a thing, dude, the list of demand Housens,
I need a blimp.
I need a hall of fame induction this year.
I want my face on every truck.
I want a picture of a triple H with the pointy thing and I need my own assistant slash camera
guy.
Adam Pierce.
Why is this list all wet?
Well, I'm in the toilet.
I mean, dude.
And then like, hey, judgment day, come meet Dan Housen and Dan Housen's like, oh, damn
it.
And fit.
And he can't.
He doesn't know James name.
And he's like, I don't like this guy.
So then he goes, ah, he's like, oh, that looks nice.
Nice.
Give me that.
Can I have that?
And then Dom goes off.
And he goes to your curse.
And Dom loses.
So yes, if they're going to use him as Centino, as our truth, as a guy that, you know, can
go from brand to brand and just be a ambassador for the company, let's go.
But this is not a guy who's going to be out there, you know, carrying the United States
or intercontinental championship divisions, right?
The only title I see this guy getting is a tag title or somebody.
Now the crazy thing is it's like the housing thing you can add to everything.
He has demand Housens, right?
He posts a picture from elimination chamber with him, punk and AJ Lee, friend Housens.
Those are his friends.
Dan Housen is very nice, but very evil.
You need to remember that folks.
So while I am a guy who pretty much shit on the fact that I didn't think this was going
to be a good signing, I've changed my mind.
They proven me wrong from the second night they've had it.
DP is so unbelievably correct that they did a disservice by having this happen on elimination
chamber.
The crate could have said deliver me to raw on three.
One?
Yeah, three one.
But you know what?
Overall?
I like to think triple H and Sean Michaels and a Undertaker and et cetera, et cetera,
know a lot more about wrestling than I do.
So when it comes down to it, I thought that was pretty freaking cool.
Now we have Dom losing the IC title to Penta.
Dan Housen did Penta, social media posts to Penta teach me how to do your evil dance
and we'll call it even after the match, which is even more awesome.
If you're not following Dan Housen, I suggest doing, I started following it.
It's just very enjoyable.
It's funny.
It's hilarious.
Thoughts on Penta winning this title and the whole curse thing.
Like you said, if this is going to be a thing, that's awesome.
And it should be.
It should be a very long time before a curse doesn't like actually take effect on someone
in some way.
Right.
Yeah, you've got to figure out how to break the curse at some point.
Yeah, it takes, they could make that last quite a while if they wanted to.
And I think, you know, starting it with the judgment day, if they keep it with that
for a bit, where they were already planning a breakup anyway.
Like, and that's just, okay, now we had a little bit of fuel to that with Dan Housen.
Well, it's common too.
You talk about the way he lost the match, right?
Right.
Like, like JD wanted to cheat.
And like you said, Finn's still at the point.
I'm not cheating.
Dom said he wanted to win it on his own, let him win it on his own.
So we're definitely starting that demise.
Yep.
I brought this up.
What about if Dan Housen and the demon team up and win take gold demon housing?
Yeah.
Let's do it.
There you go.
Right.
Thank you.
Yeah.
That'd be awesome.
That would be cool.
And he's always scared.
He's always scared of the demon, but he's not scared of Finn.
And Finn's like, he's on the same, it's the old thing.
Like I proposed for Vince McMahon, didn't know that Finn was the demon, right?
Like, hey, Finn, have you seen that demon guy?
Skirts are shit out of me.
You know, same guy.
Same guy.
Yeah, you know, Dan Housen can be like, he's always scared of the demon, but he's always
friends with Finn.
And he's like, I don't know.
I like Finn.
I don't like the demon.
There.
That would be great.
I mean, oh, and if they, yeah, and if they like different matches, if they were those
Finn and demon was only around for like PLEs or something and they have that bit where
he was fine.
He came out at differently, you know, was scared when he came out when it was the demon,
but he would be totally fine when it's Finn and dancing around.
Yeah.
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I would love to see him do that.
Yeah.
Keep that going.
Keep that curse going between JD and then move on to something else after WrestleMania
after these guys break up and yeah, keep that, keep that kind of bit going if they do.
And I love Penta being champ, but I think that's, he was, he hasn't been there, hasn't
been here long, but it still feels like it's long overdue, you know, that he deserves
to have this and can put on some hell awesome intercontinental title matches, I think, for
quite a while if they want to keep it with him and get a few more people into that division
because it's been kind of limited recently with just a few guys battling it, but they got
so much talent that can be put in that intercontinental division that they can put on some great
matches.
I'm looking forward to where they move on with Dom also moving on to something different
to you.
Yeah.
I agree with you.
I don't think he sniffs that I see title maybe for the rest of his career, maybe on the
back, maybe after he's had a few, because I like while you were talking right there, my
mind was going to this comment right here.
Dark Horse favorite to win the Royal Rumble next year, Dominic Mysterio.
He's headed into that, that air of the program.
You can't, he has to move up into the world title picture out either one, like right,
or be about to get into it.
You can't leave them in the middle here.
You just lost that title.
He's going to go back and are they going to have that match at, they're probably have
a rematch.
I don't think so.
Maybe unless they do a quick one on Raw or something, but why?
They don't need them.
I just said just move on to this.
Is there a Saturday night's main event between now and WrestleMania?
No, I don't think so, doesn't look like it.
Looks like we just got some NXT stuff and then we're on to WrestleMania.
When is the next Saturday night's main event?
I don't think there is one announced.
I don't think that there are other episodes of 2026 have been announced in detail official
of the resources.
Okay, so I sometimes they had something in between there, but honestly, we're looking
at what, like from Saturday, one, two, three, four, five, six weeks from Saturday, so
seven weeks in between, that's pretty normal for WrestleMania.
Yeah, they just have a little extra gap, I mean, stretch it out, because they got a little
extra story to tell, and we always have Smackdown as well being part of WrestleMania, too.
So I mean, they're there.
They don't need another one in between there.
They're good.
Before we get to the-
So good.
Oh, yeah, they just-
I was gonna say no.
Oh, dumb.
They got, you know, the other idea would be him winning money in the bank this year, too.
I think they can't- the other thing is they can't keep holding him down with the crowd.
Like the crowd wants to cheer him now, like it's getting that turn is already coming organically,
which is exactly what you want.
They're ready to start cheering for him.
So I mean, they gotta get through WrestleMania and then, yeah, I mean,
a big thing.
I think a good thing would be to have them maybe win the money in the bank, fail at cashing
in, and then win the Royal Rumble, right?
Like that's building, building, building, building, building, building, then you're really
out there, right?
Like, then he's chasing, chasing, chasing.
Like, oh, you think he's, everybody's happy, everybody's throwing the money in the bank,
and then everybody's so pissed off at creative because he didn't cash it in.
But then you didn't see that he's, because he's gonna go to Royal Rumble win and win
the main event WrestleMania.
So, I don't know.
We'll see.
We'll get there.
There's so many other big huge pieces.
But like you said, how much longer can you keep him out of that air of the, of the card?
Nope.
Are we missing anything before we get to the closing promo?
Uh, no, I don't think so.
What do you think?
I thought it was really good.
I mean, I think you can, you can, I think Roman's one of the girls.
Greatest of all time.
I think Roman in ring is one of the greatest of all time.
I think Roman on the mic is really, really good.
Not anywhere near and see him punks league on the mic, and not many people are.
And you can just see it.
Yeah.
I mean, between Cena and punk, they're, they're, there's another, there's a whole other level
between that.
And yeah, it, it always sometimes, it always feels a little uncomfortable when you have
that.
This, you know, Roman can hold his own is he's a good trash talker.
And I think that helps him.
Oh, I'm not saying he didn't.
I'm not saying he got completely embarrassed out of the ring.
But like, see him punk won that promo decisively.
Yeah.
In my opinion.
Yeah.
You can tell, like, definitely.
And, and maybe he was supposed to, right?
Like you need to have some fire, some, some, some fire to that hatred.
Like telling him his dad's dead.
Like that's fucking gonna start the fucking blood viewed, you know?
Right?
Yeah.
And, and, and to leave it at that to where, you know, he walks away, you know, confused and
angry, you know, kind of look and then he, yeah, he can come back and fire back after
that.
You just, you gotta, yeah, you gotta, you gotta start it somewhere and, and just let it,
let it build.
And you got time to tell it and, you know, hey, Roman goes after Larry the dog next time
or something.
And, you know, I don't think he goes there.
I really don't.
Now, that's a true thing.
They did that already.
Yeah.
Like they, he already mentioned me in front of the bracelet, I think in that promo already
on Monday.
This is just gonna be interesting because the weird part of out it is how close like
Jay and Jimmy are to see him, or especially Jay, you know, to punk, right?
So like, is that kind of element gonna get mixed in again?
Are we gonna see more of the bloodline come back?
I know Zillafa too, whether or not he was trying to play it up because he knew his social
media was gonna get it, or if he was just being a stupid kid.
When he watched the promo and then punk mentioned, you know, Roman's dad being dead.
Zill, looked at the camera, was like, I used to like seeing a punk, no, I'm gonna mess him
up.
When I see you see a punk, I'm gonna slap you.
I'm like, okay, either A, you're doing a good job and you're intentionally selling or
B, your dumbest fuck.
And I lean toward B.
Unfortunately.
It's kind of sad, but I lean towards that.
I hope he's doing it.
I hope it's just a just a added sell, you know, hey, you know, he's talking shit about
my dad.
All right, yeah, I don't know.
I would be interested to see if any of the Uso's get involved in the story.
I mean, especially when you hit that note about the father, like, it could definitely be
something that leads up to WrestleMania, where they just have some matches or something
or whatever.
There's no way punk did, there's no way punk did that without like, had giving Roman
a heads up or at least like they said to each other, nothing's off limits, right?
Like, there's too much respect there.
Yeah, he's no, they're not gonna do anything like that.
You, I think I feel like we could, we'd be able to tell if there was something that went
off the rails a little bit or off script because something else happened, but these two
guys are way too professional.
Yeah, they know what they're talking about.
I'm sure he said so much money to be made here.
They're doing it.
You know, wait, what if I hit you at this at the end and log in, walk away and let me
leave it at that.
I wouldn't doubt if they were.
Let's build it after.
But here's a thing like smart.
The smart thing would be for Roman having had told him, hey, talk about my dad, for punk
to be like, hey, yeah, I couldn't cut it.
I had to leave for 10 years, you know, hey, let me give you the digs.
Let me give you the digs on me, right?
And let you give me the digs on you, like that's even more sinister because you're like,
you're like, yeah, you all think this hurts me, but it doesn't so use that because they'll
think that, you know, like, yeah, yeah, who knows, who knows their process.
And I like to think there was some boundaries set in some form of fashion.
And I highly doubt any of those were stepped over between them too.
I highly doubt it.
I mean, they're like, this is the same guy and CM Punk who let Jericho do a feud with him
about his dad being an alcoholic and pouring booze all over him when he got the chance,
right?
It's true.
Yeah, I think there's, yeah, I think both their egos can handle everything, especially
CM Punk.
Yeah.
But it's a hell of a, it's a hell of a way to start that feud and then build it like just
fantastic.
I think, I think everything we've talked about, even the one thing we're about to talk
about here after a quick commercial break in last call, everything feels great moving
into WrestleMania, like, I don't know what they're going to do with the tag divisions.
But women's is pretty easy.
They have so many really good tag teams that they've built over this past year, year and
a half that they can easily have a four, five, six tag team ladder match for the titles.
That's what they should do.
We got the Brock Lesnar thing.
A lot of people think that's going to be old but Femi boy, hey, hey guys, hey, everybody
who's listened to me in this show for a long time.
What's up with everybody's boy, Gunther, oh, he's kind of fucking boring, isn't he?
He's not even in a title match.
He's not even going to face Brock fucking Lesnar.
Were they going to throw at him at this point, I don't know.
I don't know.
They've talked, I heard like Rey Mysterio or Sami Zayn or I don't know, man, I'll tell
you what, if Rey Mysterio wants to retire and Dom doesn't do it, I don't know, feels
weird to me.
Oh, yeah, I don't know, I don't know, they go out that way, I don't know.
You can't.
Not if Gunther is, not if Gunther is going to, they can have a match in Triple A. They
don't have to have it in that.
That's true.
They've had their matches, they've had their matches against each other, they've won
tag titles together, like I see that, but like, Gunther's the one retiring, everybody,
I don't think Rey is going to retire at WrestleMania, do you?
No, I didn't have any indication that that would happen, but just seems odd to me.
I don't know, I don't know.
It could be Drew McIntyre for all I know.
Speaking of that, let's take a commercial break and when we come back, we're going to
ask the question, will Cody Rhodes defeat Drew McIntyre for the undisputed WWE title
on SmackDown this week?
We'll be right back.

What do you mean it's let's go?
What do you mean, what do I mean, it's the last thing we're going to talk about today
on the 511th edition of the podcast known as DWI, Don't Drink and Drive.
The DP is the show officially known as Drinking with Idiots Now.
That is the wise, because that's what you said.
I didn't say I just changed the handle to that.
I'm just asking you, what is the official name of the show?
What does DWI officially stand for?
Jaronne Cressling Intelligence.
For intellect.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know which I might know.
It's one of those.
It originally stood for one of those two.
I'd like Drinking with Idiots, though.
Well, when we have guests on you out, all right, okay, fair enough.
Or it could be referring to you drinking with An Idiot, like you, me, you know, I'm
the idiot.
That's what I mean.
I mean, because I'm drinking.
I'm going to have a drink.
Actually, I'm the one drinking.
You're drinking.
I don't drink drinking the show anymore, unless it's, unless it happens to be on a Friday.
Oh, good.
Oh, good.
I figure when we record on Wednesdays, though, you can get done with work on Thursday and
you're done.
That is true.
I would enjoy that.
You will enjoy that tomorrow.
I will.
All right, last call.
Adam Pierce comes out on the after show from Elimination Chamber.
I believe that's when it happened.
Or no, Nick Aldis.
Sorry.
Not Adam Pierce.
Nick Aldis.
And says, you know, Drew, you want to get involved.
You don't want to face Cody so bad.
You want to, you know, stick your nose in.
You're defending your championship on Friday against Cody Rhodes.
Now, I've seen some of the bigger dirt sheet sites on socials posting WWE's leaning towards
Randy versus Cody.
The reason they took the belt off of Cody so they could have him in the rumble and
the Elimination Chamber matches.
I don't make sense to me.
Like people started getting hurt and there weren't going to be certain people in certain
things.
They shuffled the deck.
I won't feel bad for Drew McIntyre at all if he doesn't get to take this title into
WrestleMania because when they gave it to him, they likely told him, here's this is
what your run is going to be, right?
And Drew McIntyre, I'm sure it was fine with that.
Drew McIntyre is getting movie and media consumption deals now.
And when they need a guy to carry the belt, he gets to carry the belt.
And when he's not, he's in storylines with the top echelon of talent in the WWE.
It's like when people speculated that Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn were going to leave a
while ago when their contracts broke.
Why would you leave the biggest company in the world when you're in the biggest storylines
all the time, even though you don't get the title, Sami Zayn.
Right?
And they proved us right when we said that.
So I think Cody's going to win.
I think Cody's going to do it in an unseemingly way.
And I think this heel turn kind of thing is happening, right?
And I could see Cody retaining in a bad way and Randy getting a rematch and then maybe
winning it.
But I think we have heel Cody coming this summer.
So that would be awesome.
I think it's overdue.
Would I get it if they don't do that?
I would because he's got what do you want to talk about?
He's their all American guy, you know, he's almost the second coming of John Cena for
them since he's been back.
So that's tough.
Like do you do you jeopardize the flow of green coming in on the Cody Rose machine right
now?
You know what I'm saying?
We just said there's three guys that maybe big a ticker movers than him.
And they all been in the business at the top a lot longer than he has, especially in
this company.
So that's just a risk though.
What do you think?
I kind of obligated there.
One of Ray Cash's favorite words.
Shout out to Ray Cash and Vanger Bellas for being guest for the past few weeks on the show
by the way.
Yeah.
That's the money parts, the tough one.
I mean, that's when you're potentially struggling to find your top guy and need somebody
like that to carry the torch and move that merchandise definitely makes it a very tough
call to turn him heal as a personally as far as watching the product and not caring if
they make.
Oh, turn him fucking heal.
Yeah.
Let's do it now.
Like him and Bianco, but him and Bianca are the two biggest baby faces we've been
dying for them.
Yes.
Oh, man.
Yeah.
That's another one of the fantastic and they said, I think at this point they've certainly
got enough baby faces as far as storyline goes to make that they can run him and Rollins
back as well as flip flopped baby face heals, you know, and a lot of ways you can go anyways.
So I would love to see the heel turn come soon and then have him one way or another be
a heal throughout this year.
I'm that's I don't even know like, I know Drew McIntyre probably wouldn't probably doesn't
care whatever the storyline was that was told to him, if this is it and you're not taking
him in the mania, I think he'd be fine.
Like he said, you know, he's yeah, he's been in top storylines making all the time a lot
of money and getting every opportunity that all the other top stories have been getting
and chasing the title can be just as great as holding the title like that's a great spot
as well.
So I don't think they're I get I it's only me, but I don't think there'd be any reason
to be disappointed in it.
I'm sure he would love to be carrying the title into WrestleMania, but so I could see
Cody Rhodes win and I'm, you know, they I know they prefer one-on-one matches for the
title.
Is there any chance this triple threat don't if they don't put a stipulation on it.
What are the chances that it goes to a no contest somehow, whatever, and it becomes a triple
threat or or true or true cheats or true cheats to win and and Nick is like, you know
what?
I've had it and he goes to Randy, Randy, if you're okay with it, I'm going to make it
a triple threat.
Yeah.
And of course, Randy being a face a total face right now has no problem with that even
after winning had his compassionate moments of looking back at a dejected Cody Rhodes,
right?
Like Randy, like taking advantage of the situation, but like, hey, if the fucking crossroads
was given first and the arcade was given second would Cody Rhodes have taken advantage
of the situation, right?
Like and guys in that situation that have been there that long like Randy Orton and John
Cena, they don't they know, they know, they know the amount of insane amount of moments
in opportunities they've already have.
They also know that there probably aren't many more of those opportunities in front of
them.
Right.
And I think, I think Cody, if that heel turns happening, that happening at WrestleMania
is the biggest place to do it.
I mean, as kind of it always has been over the history, you know, the big heel turns
or whatever turns at Mania are always a big thing to hit and that could certainly be a
place where he does it where he finally capitalizes on that opportunity that he always, you
know, they always talk about where he, you know, he holds off on doing the, the kind
of heel thing and he really turns.
So I feel like, I feel like SmackDown is going to be a no contest type of match and we're
going towards a triple threat or it'll four ways somehow.
That's your prediction.
That's my prediction.
Cody Rhodes wins.
We get a singles match.
Cody Rhodes defending the title against Randy Orton at WrestleMania, Randy Orton wins
that's my prediction because it's best for business.
Thanks authority.
I got nothing.
That's it.
That's the show.
That's it.
We're done.
That's 511 in the books right there, folks.
I thought it was a stellar show.
We're just going to have the speculation train is going round and round and round like
a record, maybe, until we get to WrestleMania.
So tune in every week.
I'm going to try and get us a guest or two on the way.
I can't promise anything because DP and I love the time at which we record and not
a lot of the people are available for that.
It just works out for us so well.
So there's a good possibility of an Andrew Belaz or a Ray Cash along the way just because
they, they have an opportunity and maybe I can figure something out.
Maybe we'll wait for Dave at some point.
Maybe we'll have a super show heading into WrestleMania then maybe we'll do that.
So we'll see what happens, but I can tell you I officially took off the day after WrestleMania
and I too.
Oh shit.
Nothing.
Nothing.
Nothing means nothing.
Nothing is like we're going to get together or anything or do anything special about
it.
But I'm like, you know what?
They're starting at four, five, that's about our time.
One of those two and I'm just like, you know what, I'm going to be up for those for
the whole thing.
I'm going to drink the whole time.
I don't want to have to worry about going into work the next day.
So WrestleMania, you got me to take a vacation day unlike the Super Bowl, which I do not
take vacation days for anymore.
Sad is that.
So boring.
Yeah.
I mean, I would almost suggest we get our get to get, we move our get together to the
Saturday night before the Super Bowl instead.
Right?
We can find, we'll put on an old tape of a Super Bowl and watch that instead.
We don't even watch the game anyway.
We just fucking play Jeopardy and eat a bunch of food.
Just want half time to come so we can play PC, Tony's game, that's so much more fun.
It's way more fun.
Maybe we'll just, yeah, maybe we'll just have biannual Jeopardy nights or something like
that.
Right.
Everybody would show up for that.
I know they would.
We'd show up for game night.
Troll cheese, game night and drinking.
Oh darn.
That sounds horrible.
