We're here to talk WWE Monday Night Raw, as well as just one of the wildest contract years ever. Every year, since Denise and I have done this show, the year gets crazier and crazier and crazier. I had posted a Fightful Select update on Christmas last year. I said, "Guys, the 2024 contract year is going to be even crazier." It is. Five-year deals that were signed when AEW started are up, both on WWE and AEW side. We're going to talk about some of that. We're going to talk about it with Denise Salcedo. You can check her out over on Instant Culture, doing her own Raw watch-alongs until the end of the year. Denise, how you doing? I'm doing pretty good, man. I got to tell you. Those Raw watch-alongs are pretty fun. I was getting more people than I did them sporadically for a couple of weeks, and then people were like, "Bring them back," and I thought, "Oh, people actually enjoyed this? Okay, cool. I'll bring them back." I brought them back for the rest of the year, and we'll see what happens as things go by, because I don't know how this is going to work once they raw goes on Netflix. That's why I said, "Okay, just a remainder of the year, because I don't know what the plan is," or what technicalities are once you go to Netflix and all of that type of stuff. Yeah. Anyways. Showing you almost- What's the news on- Yeah, it's a co-host. Did I? Yeah, there was a giant earthquake today. Oh, my God. I saw that. I didn't invite you out, Sean. I know. I saw that- I saw that- I was watching ESPN or something, and it was a little frantically. And you didn't check it up on me. I didn't get one text from you saying, "Hey, Denise, are you okay? Are you alive?" That's not true at all. That's not true at all. I responded to your earthquake tweet. No, you did not. You did not say, "Hey, Denise, are you still alive? Are you okay? Is your house built together?" Well, if- Listen, Denise, I would be much more concerned if you were tweeting while bed. So, I mean, that means there's like a zombie earthquake, a hot oak, a hoglet. I was tweeting while the earthquake was going on, Sean. I was- Listen- It was so funny. I was crouched out. I am already an earthquake- I'm an earthquake survivor. I was there in Philly when the earthquake happened. I am a survivor. There was an earthquake around the time I was born out here as well, one of our rare earthquakes, but you know. Really? When you were born? Not that far off from it. I think either a week before or a week after. But hey, my birthday is this month, and if you guys want to give me a wonderful gift- Oh, shit. When's your birthday, Sean? August 30th. Subscribe to FightfulSelect.com, the best $5 in the business, or $54 a year in the business.

We're going to have a- We've got a FightfulSelect exclusive Discord for all in. I will be in that live chat, breaking some news as the show goes on. There's going to be some scoops, some spoilers in there. We had a bunch of news over the last week, over the last week alone on FightfulSelect.com. If you saw this anywhere else, well, they got it from us. Randy Orton signed a new long-term deal with WWE. We confirmed Becky Lynch has not retired. This came from as close to the source as possible. We had an update on Daniel Garcia and his contract status, an AEW signing, Dynamite Kid, Tom Billington. They also had an update on Pinta and Phoenix, and quite frankly, Pinta telling people that he had contact with WWE already. That's very, very interesting. We revealed that AEW will re-reveal because we actually revealed it quite a while back and nobody picked up on it, but that AEW looks poised to run the Globe Life Field Stadium for their stadium show inevitably. Trust me, time will be kind to us on that one. We had the news- >> None of the advertisers picked it up. Wow. >> Boy, sometimes I'll sneak it in in the Fightful Wrestling Weekly and they miss it, miss out on it. LA Knight has re-signed with WWE, Bobby Lashley's deal appears to be up with WWE as well. We had news that Michael Oku will likely be working with AEW as well. Just a ton of stuff there. We had the bound for glory location at NXT Scoop's Thread and as always Raw Smackdown Scoop's Threads. That's in addition to our Q&A show that dropped this evening, but subscribe FightfulSelect.com. Please support original content creators. I cannot begin to tell you how important that is, that you do that. That way this content keeps going, but let's get to some of our super chats and helper chats Denise. That's how people let us know that they're here, that they want to talk about certain things. But wait, before we do that, nobody, we got to make sure everybody here says present and drops. >> I was about to say. Are we still doing that? >> Yeah. The roll call that Denise called for, we need everybody to say they're present. Drop us a fruit emoji. Steppy says, here's a hypothetical for a humper chat. Let's say Cena does five programs in his last year. I think Orton and Cody are locked. I'll say the other three are Gunther, Braun and Drew, those are my guesses, what say you? Denise, is there anything specifically you need to see out of John Cena? >> Dang, I don't know, I think it's sort of along the lines of what everybody is saying. Here's the thing, I look at this and I go, damn, do I want to see him like rehash some of his older feuds and one final goodbye, right? Or do I just want to see him wrestle a bunch of new people that I've never seen him wrestle with? And to be honest, I'm kind of good with either. I know that is CM Punk has been mentioned, Randy Orton has been mentioned, shit, I'd like to see ages 1,000 again, I mean, there's a lot of really different options that they can go with it, but I would also like to see him work with some of the people that we've never seen him wrestle, Braun Breaker, I mean, that would be crazy. There's so many options and we don't even know for sure how many matches he's actually having because he really just said, would he say like 18 to something dates or something like that? I forgot the number that he threw out there about how many dates he was doing, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're matches. I know Joe Andrew is trying to get himself a John Cena match and he made a big push for that too. So in terms of when we talked about that in our interview, so part of me is like, oh, I would kind of like to see that happen too, just for the hell of it. So there's a lot. I want to see him team with CM Punk. I like that suggestion from Punk. I also want to see him team. I don't need to see him team with our truth. We did already see that. So I don't know if that would need to be on the board now, but I like the idea of Gunther first off. It is, you know, the American boy against the created in a lab European heel. You know what I mean? Like that type of thing, Braun Breaker could be an interesting one as well, but he might actually kill John Cena. But I really do want to see him. I want to see him team. I want to see him team with Orton too. I want to see them like combined forces as well. Steppy says, here's a toughy. Haven't been watching this many people so over the same times they've been watching who were the most five over people in the company, Roman, Cody, Jay, Ria, Seth, Orton, KO, Sammy, L.A. Punk, et cetera. It's a tough debate. Who would you pick? I would say Cody Punk top three, Ria, four, I think Ria is three, I think maybe punk's four. Who's fifth? Oh, um, I'm going to go with J. I saw so many of his freaking t-shirts and people eating everywhere. I'm going to go with J just for the and the and the t-shirt stuff. I'm going to say, just for the sake of being different, I'm going to say Damian Priest after tonight. That guy's getting some crazy reactions. Maybe Seth, maybe Seth, but Steppy, that's, that's a very, very good point. Like, I remember once upon a time when you and I covered the show and nobody was likable on the show. Everybody was stupid. Like they booked everybody to be really, really dumb. I'm trying to think who was the most likable person when everything was thinking. Everybody liked back in the day. Honestly, there was only times where it was Matt Riddle and Randy Ordon when they were carrying so much of the show, Chad Gable, Otis, they seem to always have people on their side for the most part. They were over, but everybody else was just kind of there. I mean, there was a few more. I'm just not thinking of them right now. Crazy 101 says who are three people from AEW you would book against Cena. Um, if I could book anybody, Will Osprey? Yeah. Yeah, Will Osprey. Darby Allen, because I say Darby Allen to everybody. That's my gimmick now. Darby Allen. I would say, I want, go ahead. You say you three. No, I was still thinking, well, no, for real though, I would say, um, who did I say first or not? Sorry. I'm forgetting my own answer that I just gave. Well, yeah. Will Osprey was the first one that I mentioned, sticking with him. And then two other people that I would book against John Cena, Ocada, to see what kind of match they would do. Great. And then a third one to make it different, um, because this one would be very different. How about Ray Phoenix? There you go. Although that might count on the WWE side now. I'd say Paul White three times. Okay. No, no, not really. Uh, if I, if it could be sting, I would say sting, but yeah, no, that's not, not alive and not alive in the world possibility anymore. But I would say MJF as, as one, yeah, that would be really good. I, I feel him as my three. I'm just going to, yeah, well, I'm, listen, I'm just saying three different ones from you. Uh, but I would say him, I honestly wouldn't mind Christian Cage again, because they sort of have unfinished business from like 20 years ago. I feel like Adam Copeland's also a cheap one. That's a cheap answer. So that's not going to happen. I won't go there. Mm. I'm looking up and down there roster. And Luchasaurus there, moving, moving on. That'd be good. That'd be good. I'm just sitting. What are you talking about? Kenny Omega. Kenny. I'd love to see him in Kenny Omega. I was waiting to see if you were going to say Kenny Omega. I didn't say Kenny Omega because I felt the answer was too obvious. Yeah. Kenny Pek's caliber says we need one more scene of versus bunk match. Man, John Cena is the most super chatted thing on tonight show so far. Unbelievable. Hi. People, people love him. I guess. I don't know. But why today? No, I don't know. Takesh does also a good shout as well. I love to catch down. I want to see to catch the versus Sean Ross app even. I think he can give you a five star match on. I think he probably, I think he'd probably beat the living shit out of me based on what I've heard. It would be a five star beat down. K, seven, seven, five says how many more matches do you see getting added to bash it for Lynn? Does Kaiser make the card? Well, considering he was on main event tonight, I doubt it. But fight for select did report dragon Lee was also on the show. They have three matches announced right now. Cody and Kevin goonter and Randy and then the mix tag. I think they'll add three more matches. They seem to really like that six match card. What if they do shameless and Ludwig that be cool. I'd be fine with that. I wish they would for for his sake, but they seem to be very, very hit or miss with that type of thing and whether or not they they really even want to do it. So do you think they put in that? I would hope they would give Brombreaker a match or Nia Jax because I think you because you have the mix tag match you have no women's matches besides the mix tag. So I would hope to see Nia Jax defend her title at Bastion Berlin. Yeah, I mean that that division needs some juice behind it, but our show will have some juice behind it. Mr. Santy's app joining me. Check it out guys. WDB bash in Berlin. We got a couple of afternoon shows coming up this month, Denise. I'm pretty excited about that. I am too. Well, I'm going to be at Bastion Berlin. So I think it'll be you. Are you? Yeah, I've never been to Berlin. I know that. I love to travel and I love to go to places I've never been to. So I'm going to Berlin. I will be there. We'll see what the hell I get. I'm mostly going for the experience because I've never been to Berlin and I'm extending my trip. So hey, I won't be here that raw, by the way, Shawn, I won't be here because I'm going to Amsterdam. So I'm going to get high. Oh, yeah, I'm going to get high. Shawn, those are definitely not my plans. My plans are to go to the Anne Frank House. That is the thing I'm going for to Amsterdam for because it's a bucket list item that I've always wanted to do. So yeah, my God, I'm excited for you. I did not know. I'm excited. Great. You're going to. You're going to enjoy that a lot. I have. I mean, listen, I just got into traveling when Fightful became a thing and really when AEW became a thing because when AEW became a thing, that sort of pushed WWE to do more junkets and press opportunities and stuff. And I didn't really travel before then. So getting to travel is sort of new for me, but traveling to a place where I don't speak the language and can't like read the language, Japan would be tough for me because I don't know the alphabet either. But I think I could do I think I could do Germany, I think I could be surprised in a lot of these places. Like there's there's help everywhere. Yeah, crazy 101 says my picks versus Cena would be will, swerve and hangman. Hangman would be a real good one too. He's always over. When do you see Ricochet debuting Motor City Machine Gun update? I personally, I feel at the latest the gauntlet match because I Fightful Select dot com best $5 in the business reported that they are going to plant they're planning on like loading that up. Like that to be like something that is seen as their signature match. And I think it is their signature match. I think they found a hit with that. Motor City Machine Gun's I don't have an update, sorry. Mark and Jacob Henry were in the crowd, Candice Michelle was in the crowd for WWE Raw. The stars are out Denise. See Hawk was there, Caden was there. Can you believe it? So I had not seen Candice Michelle in years. I met her like got over 15 years ago at a P.W.G. show. Yeah, she was there and I went up to her and asked her for a photo. I was in middle school. So I mean, this was a really long time ago and I feel like that's the last time I saw her because she doesn't even really make that many appearances for a WWE. Like when's the last time she was there? I don't remember. She did the 24/7 thing. I don't even remember that. Yeah, she won the 24/7 title. But when did that happen? Was I there? Did I watch it? I don't remember that. It was gosh. It was years ago. Oh gosh, I can't even remember who she penned. See, no one remembers. Other than that, I think she wrestled one match in like the last 15 years or so. Where? I think it was House of Hard Course. It was in Victoria. Oh, see, I didn't see that either. Yeah. So I feel like I have not seen this woman in God forever. I watch her TED talk. I watch her TED talk. I watch her TED talk. Oh, I thought you said TED talk. Oh, TED talk. What'd she do her TED talk about? Wrestling. It was something. It was something. Something good? No. Anyway. You caught it up. I'm just asking questions. Victoria Ripley opens the show She's Interrupted by Dominic and Liv, who are up in the concourse, so to speak. This got a lot of heat for Dominic. Dominic is getting those reactions and what I love. Man, I got so much shit last year when I said it's weird that they're piping and booze for Dominic because he doesn't need it, but they absolutely were. You could hear the audio track had multiple producers confirm it to me. They're not doing that now and it sounds so much better. It sounds just so much better because he gets the reactions. They didn't need to make it worse on TV and now those reactions like they match up to the crowd and him talking and not talking so much better. I didn't think the promo stuff between Ria and Liv was like particularly good. There were some funny lines. Dominic saying she gave him tendies whenever he wants and all that, but. Or him not going deep enough or him not being deep enough. That was the best part. That's the only part I remember. But it's a hard to sort of come to terms like with your Ria is like, you know, I was very proud of you for what you accomplished over the last couple of years. And I'm like, well, you didn't really accomplish anything. Like he was helping you guys cheat. It's tough to sort of reconcile this, right? They were dastardly heels for years and a couple of them just got so popular that they facilitated a turn. It's hard for me to feel bad for Ria. Like I like Ria. She's great, but I don't feel bad for Ria. I do feel bad for her as a woman. I cannot condone another woman stealing another man's, oh, how does it work? I cannot condone a man cheating on a woman or a woman stealing another woman's man, both parties. He wasn't her man. He was her man. He was out here to feed her little, whatever he was. He was. She was stringing him along. He wanted it. Don't act like he didn't want it. He looked very happy for a long time, John. Wanting it and having her two different things. He looked very damn happy with her. Don't act like he wasn't happy. You look happy. I feel like he's happier now. It doesn't matter. He's happier now. The point is they screwed Ria. So yes, I do feel bad for Ria because Dominic was her, whatever he was to her. He was still hers. You just don't do that. Damien Priest pops up behind them on the concourse. Huge pop and a great moment. I thought that was the highlight, but quickly commentary made me go. What the hell are we talking about here? With Ria's line, because everybody just stood there. What was Ria's line? Sorry. I don't even remember. She said something and everybody was like, what? What? And then Damien Priest came out. Yeah, it wasn't. It wasn't great, but Michael Cole goes, live has nowhere to go. And I'm like, what are you talking about nowhere to go? She's on the concourse. She can run through the crowd. She can run down by ringside. Damien Priest isn't going to hit her. She can run out the damn back door. What are we talking about here? There's no way. So personally, I feel that they held back in this segment because they have crossed certain lines, right? We've seen Dominic and Liv Morgan full on making out. And we have seen, we've gotten some lines. For example, when Liv basically said that guys don't go for girls like Ria Ripley, that they go for blondes like her, right? That was a line that was sort of controversial for some people. And so they've gotten, they've had some moments that you can say were more extreme than others. So because when you cross those lines, it's almost like that's what you want to keep getting. And when you don't get those things on a consistent basis, it can sort of fall a little flat. And even with this, I felt like they could have said more things that were more savage on the promo. That's why the thing that I remember the most was when Ria said that it wasn't deep enough. That was the most savage thing that I've heard in the whole thing. But even in the bra, for example, we were out there in the concession stands. And we, if you notice, Ria went out there and she got to Liv Morgan. But instead of the camera following them, we ended up following Dominic and Damian Priest, which was fine. But I felt like there was a lot more that we could have seen between Ria and Liv had we seen them brawl out in the concession stands and also seen the men. So I kind of felt like they spent too much time on the talking when they could have been spending more time and they could have had a whole ass fricking fight in the concession area because I think that was the interesting part. And I hate that we never saw how that portion with Dominic, sorry, that portion with Ria and Liv ended until way later on when they were back in the ring. But I felt there was more there that they kind of just, they just ended it abruptly. So again, I think that they kind of held back in a lot of this opening segment. I agree. I think it could have been a lot better. We got Apex caliber saying Damian Ria, our heels, my memory is older than two years. Well, Apex, you showed that because you say Ria beat Dom to submission and backstab Liv in 2022. Exactly. Like that's all they really need to play off of and say, no, that you actually aren't a good person or at least you weren't then and we never forgot about it. Yeah. But Dom cannot act like he's innocent and he didn't do nothing and neither can live. They screwed Ria. Sure. You can say, Oh, there was revenge, but then she'll run the screen at the whole entire time. Because then you got it. They were planning at the entire time, not two years, maybe a few months. But like, why would you not be upset about it in the beginning and then be upset at about it towards the end? He was giving her a shot. Listen, listen, Denise, if Dominic can land a woman like Ria, he's going to give her the chance to prove that she's, she's not just going to make him the lap dog. I mean, come on. What are we doing here? You're going to give her the opportunity. Look, I'm just saying if you love the dice, you'll be having seen the lap. That's a roll of the dice that you're going to hope to land on sevens with like, Hey guys, I'm here to tell you about eBay auto. eBay Motors is the leading online platform for automotive dealers to get their inventory in front of over seven million ready to buy shoppers who are buying cars and trucks on eBay Motors every three minutes, every single day.

Granger, for the ones who get it done. You're just going to take that gamble. I have no comments. I'm just saying that Dominic is not innocent and do not act like he was the victim of this. No, he's not innocent, but this started out with just Rhea and Judgment Day, screwing with Ray. That's what it was all about. Yeah, and Dom, Dom literally turned on his whole family for Rhea Ripley. He turned on his mother, his father, all for Rhea. I mean, we forgot about that already. He turned on his freaking house and brought on the holidays, who he turns on is not my business. That's personal. That's personal stuff. I know what Dominic Mysterio has everything coming to him and I am siding with Rhea Ripley in the story because he knew what he was getting into and then he turned on her and that is not right. Well, listen, if you're turning on your sides all night, sleeping, check out helixsleep.com/fight full. I just got their new sunset lux.

Bob says on my 37th straight free trial, love helix sleep is wonderful, greatly appreciate those people. Crazy101 says, Candice Pin Kelly Kelly for the 24/7 title, Molina was the ref. Okay. And people remember everything out here. I don't remember any of this happening. Any chance California gets a big four-paper view next year? I was about to say it was the last time we had a pay-per-view, WrestleMania 39. I'm going to say yes because they're going to see that new clippers, the Intuit arena. Oh my gosh. They're going to want to go there. Dude, I'm so like, you should see the traffic on that frickin' street because on the same street, it's so fine, key a forum, and into a dome, all in the same exact frickin' street. Same freeway exit, everything the same. And I'm thinking to myself, so when I went to go see Taylor Swift at the SoFi Stadium, Shawn, I lived 20 minutes away from SoFi, okay? It took me about three hours to get home and what's worse is they rerouted me further and further and further from my house because I couldn't go a certain direction because the cops block off all the streets. That was just for SoFi. What is going to happen when there's an event on all of these three places? I was shocked thinking about this. I was shocked when we did SummerSlam and they had a Cleveland Guardians game that day too. I was like, why would they do this? Oh, first, I noticed that for SmackDown. For SmackDown, I saw that they had a baseball game going on at the exact same time as well and I was like, oh no, this looks very stressful. Maddie Manius is, Michelle McCool was there too. I was sitting behind hard cam and I was shook to see her. I mean, it seems like we're getting highlighted more people that are there or we're getting more people that are highlighted being there, which makes me happy. It's very good. Damien Priest ended up defeating Carlito and afterwards, you know, Judgment Day, tried to pop up, interfere, all that stuff, JD gets choked slammed, Finn Balor barely escapes. The match was what it was. We saw this last week, but there was a rumor today, Denise, that Judgment Day would get their name changed to Street Trash. What? Yeah, that was a rumor today. I didn't hear it personally, but it was reported elsewhere. I can't say that I've heard this. And if that were the case, that would be an all time stupid decision. And let me tell you, WDB has made some very dumb decisions with names. Why would you want to call yourself Street Trash though? Hell if I know, very dumb. No, I think they're fine saying as Judgment Day. We got the Wyatt Vignette with Vodalas saying that Bray was with them last week. That was emotional. There's the, I can tell based on engagement numbers and all that, like, they're meaning a little less each week to the viewer because we're starting to see very, very similar ones. I would like to see them, I want to hear from Dexter Lumis. I want to hear from Joe Gacy as well. They weren't really featured on the show today. So I would like to see them speak as well as they tell this story and sort of stretch out what it is they're doing. Last week, the main event went just fine. The whole thing has been what happens when the bell rings had a whole lot of people saying that I was a liar when I said they weren't doing anything supernatural. They're not. They got to make sense of it when the bell rings. How are you feeling so far about the vignettes that we are still seeing? Right. So I think the vignettes always hit because, you know, it's a serious topic that you're talking about when you're talking about Bray. And I think this one in particular, you know, they showed some of that footage and I was at Baltimore. It was a Baltimore last week. And they were talking about like the, you know, they were talking about Baltimore being like the beginning of everything. And so I thought that kind of hit pretty nicely. But I do think that some of the vignettes do sort of feel a little bit like filler. But at the same time, that's sort of what is adding to the group though, seeing all of these videos, I think just make them stand out from everything else that you're seeing on the show, because you're not seeing any other group get these types of videos. No one else is doing these types of videos. So it does stand out a whole lot, but I think at some point, I think you're right. I think people do want to hear from why is Joe Gacy part of the group? Why is Dexter, what's been going on with Dexter Lumis between the last time we saw him and now? I think people like to get those stories filled in for them. So again, and sometimes it feels a little bit like filler, but then sometimes it hits really hard. You just never know what you're going to get. I will say this. I just saw a video that Kyler tweeted from the Fightful account that a fan took of rear Ripley chasing live down the arena. Was it the rest of what we didn't see? Yes. And it was hilarious. Live was getting it. She was... And they didn't show that. Oh my God. She was getting it. Does Liv versus Ria end for now at Bad Blood in October? I think so. We did have Damian and Ria versus Liv and Dom announced as well for Bash and Berlin, which I think is really, really great. But oh man. Odyssey Jones defeated Vincent Whiny. They announced him as a football player from Morehead State. Some notable athletes from Morehead State. Phil Sims, who won a Super Bowl. Kenneth Fareed, who is the all-time NCAA rebounding leader drafted by the Denver Nuggets. Do you know any other notable athletes from Morehead State University? No. Right here, Denise. You? Right here. Your boy was a Morehead State Eagle. Wait, what were you in? What sport? I was in the sport of shitposting. Competitive shitposting. Wait, you didn't do any athletics while you were in college? Hell no, I didn't play yet. Like, what do you think? They don't have amateur wrestling there. They don't have anything like that. I don't know. I just figured that you would do something. No. Are you in any clubs in college? At college, no, when I was in another college. Yeah. But I mean, I was there doing convergent media. But yeah. Sounds fancy. I remember in college I really wanted to join the Adventure Club, but I got made fun of. So I decided not to join because I got bullied for it. I told somebody that I wanted to join the Adventure Club and they were like only nerds joined the Adventure Club. So then I got bullied out of it. And to this day, I regret not ever joining the Adventure Club because they sounded like they had a blast. Damn. I know. It was. I mean, I guess the where all the people that wanted to do combat sports, they just came to our gyms. I mean, that was the closest to anything college sport related was we had a catch wrestling team that pretty well served as the catch wrestling team from everywhere an hour and a half around. Do you think we'd be French on if we knew each other in high school or in college? I don't think so. I don't know. Let me tell you. I don't think we can be in the same groups of people. I wasn't talking to anybody in college. I did not want to talk to anybody in college. I would drive. I would drive to campus. Here's what happened. I stayed on campus for a whopping week. My roommate was up till 4 a.m. every night, like tapping away on this computer. And I said, no, I'm just going to drive the hour back and forth every day. I didn't really care that much to do anything like that. I would go play some basketball. And that was about it. And then I would go the hell home. What group were you in high school? Were you with the nerds, the jobs, the athletes? Who were you with? Gosh, well, I ran track a little bit, but I wouldn't say I was with the athletes or anything like that. I mean, we don't exact like, from where we are, we didn't really have enough people to have that. Like we are school- You get to have a six. I mean, kind of, yeah. But I mean, it wasn't like to that extreme degree. If there were athletes, it was just, there weren't like groups like that, you know? There would be like the future farmers of America, but those were also the white boys hitting three pointers on our basketball team and serving on our offensive line. So it's like, you know what I mean, yeah, it was a thing. The FFA. You told me you were in it. Yeah. Do you ever watch Napoleon Dynamite? Yeah. Yeah. Where he's, he's tasting the milk and stuff. He's got the FFA jacket on. Oh, that's what it is? That it is. That's what it is. Yeah. Shut up. I'm dead. I mean, I don't think that's a legit thing. I think that was, listen, this is good shit. The future engagement farmers of America, that's what I was in. That's what I was in. Oh my God. But like, that's the thing, like you would have the farmer guys and stuff like that. But also those were the guys that were on the offensive line for your football team as well and shooting three pointers. Like, so there was too much crossover when you got like 700 people in a school. Okay. Yeah. See, it was a little different in my school. I hung out with the skater boys that was used in the skater girls that I didn't skate though, but that's who I hung out with. That was like my click. I was like one of two people that knew how to skate in school. So like there wasn't, there wasn't enough clicks to do anything like that. There was like thousands of people in my school so I don't even know. Odyssey Jones defeated, Odyssey Jones defeated Vincent Whiny. But I liked that carrying cross came out and he was like, we all see what's going on here. Like Kofi is replacing Big E. We see the comparisons here. And Kofi even was like, oh yeah, well no tag team match next week. It'll be new day. And then he made sure to say and and Odyssey Jones. And you could tell that he was doing that as to not include Odyssey Jones in new day. But you could also tell that Xavier Woods was not like on board. He's very hesitant about this. And at this point, like I think that Xavier is playing this very, very well. I think Carian's playing it well too. This like we all see what's going on here type of role. I think I think he's doing great. Yeah, I noticed that Xavier would look very annoyed when Kofi Kingston took the mic away from him and changed sort of the plans that they had. So I got me wondering like, oh, I guess something really is going to happen between them because I kind of want to see them all three stay together and be the new happy version of the new day. Like that's what I want. I don't want anyone to get mad and turn on anybody. I don't want anybody to go and join with the final testament. I don't want any of that. I want everybody to be happy. Sorry. I don't want the new day to break up. Do you want to break up? No, right? I do. I don't want it to break up though. What? What? Go with the final testament? No, I think it'll be Kofi and Kofi with Odyssey as his heater, I think. Oh, okay. But even though I'm still sad about it though. Dilo Diggs has been a hard week for me, but glad to at least celebrate 33 years around the sun in a few hours. Did you all have the blue ag group on the campus on your campus? Well, first off, happy birthday Dilo. You've been a 41 month member of our YouTube program, which thank you very much. We greatly appreciate that. I don't know what you mean, the blue ag group. I mean, now it's so funny that he says that because that's what we would call the farmer. They were the ag kids, the agriculture kids. But we, I mean, we had them in their blue FFA jackets. I never made it far enough to get a blue FFA jacket. I was in there for the one semester I had agriculture class. I learned how to plant stuff. I can still do that. I'm dead. I'm dead. I would love to take the future farmers of America class. Listen, it was, it was an experience. It was, it was something like, we had some unusual classes looking back, like some very odd classes. That should be, that's a podcast of its own, like us going back and looking at what classes we had. We had one where we just sat up, we had one where we sat out in a greenhouse all day. We were just literally selling, we were selling flowers and plants in the school greenhouse. What? Yeah. Yeah. It was very weird. Oh my God. Somebody says, how does the blue FFA jacket hold up to the Rivera Steakhouse jacket? Now hold on, for those of you who have never seen an FFA jacket, listen, ain't my style for sure. I've never seen one's ups. But listen, they are, as we would say back in the day, they are. They are stout jackets. They are like, you can look at it and you're like, okay, you can kind of, I think it's like a corduroy type of material, like a dark, it's like a dark blue navy corduroy. But yeah, you don't own any corduroy Denise? No, no thanks. What am I doing? Paddington. Where's corduroy? Does he not? Which one's the one that wears corduroy? Is it corduroy bear? Paddington bear? There's one that wears corduroy and it's a bear. There's a bear that wears blue over us. Missy corduroy bear? Is it paddington? It's like corduroy. It's like a rain jacket, isn't it? Oh, it's this one. It's corduroy. It's this little bear. Sorry. I was thinking of paddington but it's corduroy, corduroy bear. How dare you disgrace the name of paddington? And people are, people are in our chat saying, yup, it's paddington. This is how misinformation gets spread. The dude's, the bear's name is only corduroy the bear. Unless paddington also wears corduroy. What? Does he? No, he wears a, well, I don't know what his jacket is made out of. It could be corduroy too. But doesn't paddington wear the little yellow outfit? He's got like a little bear. Oh, this is paddington's other outfit. He wears a yellow one too. Okay, but it's corduroy bear. Who am I? Corduroy bear? Next, yeah, I'm surprised you didn't throw out the Winnie the Pooh allegations. Him and his corduroy pants, hope he doesn't wear pants. Winnie the Pooh wears crop tops. I mean, anything's a crop top if you're not wearing pants, Denise. No, it's not. Listen. No, it's not. You could wear a big giant t-shirt with no pants and that doesn't make it a crop top. I disagree. Well, no, a crop top means that the top is cropped. Therefore, it's a crop top. I'm shy, like paddington's rolling around with luggage for the love of God. Listen, I'll say this first off. I don't know what paddington's got on underneath that because he's like got it. It's got it shut. But... I don't know. Has the over opened it, I don't know. I hope not. I've never watched paddington. I know that paddington too was like rated one- What is Ted here? Ted doesn't wear shit. Ted doesn't wear anything hot. Ted's a nudist. Ted's out there free bearing. He holds a beer on occasion, but I think he wears a suit sometimes. Yeah, I thought a picture of the suit. Paddington too was rated 100% on rotten tomatoes at one point. I've never seen paddington or corduroy. Anyway, Obafemi was at ringside, Obafemi and Otis is confirmed for NXT tomorrow, which I love. That is going to be meat. That's going to be meat. Ivy meets with Maxine and she was like, "Hey, listen, maybe I can get you into the group. I can't get the rest of the guys in." Maxine's like, "No, no." And Ivy goes, "Okay, I thought you'd say that." Then what we get is an absolute bumper of a match between the American-made Creed Brothers and Alpha Academy. Chad Gable's not there. He's over in Paris. He was doing stuff for the Olympics. But sometimes you just got to remind people that Akira Tozawa can wrestle his ass off Denise. And if that's the direction we're going, great. I think we've missed the boat on some big explosion of Otis being mega over, but it's very clear the creeds are going to benefit from this. And they had an incredible match here. It ends with Ivy locking the dragon sleeper on Maxine. And as is tradition with women's wrestlers, it always hurts more when you do a submission hold on the table for some reason. I loved everything about this. I loved how it highlighted Tozawa. I love that the creeds won. I love that Ivy made the turn. I love that she's officially in American-made. She should be whipping Maxine's ass. Maxine can't hold a candle to her in that regard. How'd you feel? So I was sort of surprised when Ivy Nyle did attack Maxine because I was thinking about how they were friends and that was really her only friend when everybody was being mean to her and she seemed lost and confused and didn't know what to do. But I got to say, I like this look on Ivy Nyle. I think it was about time because really she's been on the main roster for how long. And she's been a background character. She hasn't been in any real storyline, I mean, she's been part of what the creeds have been doing and all of this, and she's had those little backstage moments with Maxine. But nothing has really been about her. She's been part of it, but it hasn't been about her. And right now with this attack on Maxine, I like this. I personally felt like this was a good thing for Ivy Nyle moving forward on the show. I do too. I'm glad they don't just ignore the fact that the Creed Brothers are still there while Gable is off doing some stuff and just like if he's in Paris, show us that he's in Paris. By all means, this is something WWE didn't used to do, they used to just ignore him for that week. No, show us that the dude was traveling and he was doing something cool. I thought that was a really, really great approach as well. I think this should have shown him eating some baguettes or some a Claire, some macaroons. I don't think he would eat those types of things. Yeah, I know, but damn, but that's just Paris. I don't think he would. Gosh. Crazy one of ones as Anna J is killing it so far, Takesh does on fire too. Takesh is so very clearly like a guy for the future. And a lot of people forget Anna J was thrown right into the fire, right into the fire. I have a Pete Dunn interview, there's a lot of things I liked about this Denise. He said that he doesn't like Sheamus because Sheamus saddled him as his sidekick and gave him a goofy name that he hated. He said he's not butch. He never wants to hear butch again. And he's going to eliminate Sheamus. This is very clearly designed to get people to chant butch at him Denise. He hates it so people are going to do it. But why? We were getting past that. I don't want them to be chanting butch at him. But then again, the fans hated so much that I don't know if the fans will be chanting butch at him. But what I love about this is that Pete Dunn is technically on his revenge tour because he's coming after Sheamus, he's pissed at Sheamus. And I like what he's been doing both on the main roster and on NXT because he's feeding with trick Williams over there. He got a victory over trick Williams last week. I was so surprised by that. >> Clean. >> Right. >> It was great. >> I love that for Pete Dunn. I love that he's doing both of these things simultaneously. He just looks like he's got problems everywhere. But yeah, we, I got, I don't even remember the last time we got an interview like this for Pete Dunn. So I liked that they highlighted him in this way because we don't see Pete Dunn have no sit down interviews every week. God, I don't even know if he's ever had one before, if he did, I don't even remember it. I think they're very important to utilize as well and Pete Dunn did attack Sheamus later on when Sheamus is kind of making light of the situation. Good. I like that. I think that makes makes an awful lot of sense. >> He smashed his fingers with the Shalalie. >> Yeah. >> That was brutal. That was my favorite part. >> That was very good. >> That was my favorite part. >> Mike says any update on Lashley could he debut it all in, all out, could you see him shocking everyone and staying with WWE? What's your honest prediction? My prediction is what people close to him claim to me as reported on FightfulSelect.com best $5 in business. I promise you guys it's worth it. We reported of all things he had a birthday party this past weekend and you might say, well, why the hell is that matter, Sean? And especially why does it matter three weeks after his actual birthday? Well, because for some reason, Bobby Lashley decided to have his birthday party in Texas a few miles away from where collision was, and a bunch of people actually got booked on collision to attend that as well. So I don't think that's an accident. I'm sure he was there talking to him. We had reported his contract was up pretty soon. He has already sort of tipped his hand in Nice that he's leaving WWE because he said he's doing a boxing fight, which is something we had said was on the table as well. So where do you think he's going? >> I would imagine he would go to AEW. I don't know when. I don't know what the deal would be, but I can't imagine that they wouldn't figure something out on both sides for things to work. >> Damage control vignette Dakota Kai is sidelined like eight to 10 weeks with an MCL injury. I believe it is. That's unfortunate. She's able to get written off and all that, but let me tell you what is going to take some getting used to the pure fusion collective. >> Hey, we wanted a name, Sean, we wanted a name now it's here. >> Alex has this thing that he says on sour grabs and fight for select called the Monday Night Monkeys Paul and it's where you make a wish and it comes true. But something bad happens. This is one of the fingers put down on the Monday Night Monkeys Paul right here, which we haven't had to do too much lately. We're like, Zoe, Shayna, Sonya, there's so bad ass and now they sound like an experience experimental rock band from 2002. They sound like they're going on tour with the Polyphonic spree. >> That's what you thought. I thought they sounded like a gem. Every gem out here is called fusion something. >> Michin had suggested the stud line on Twitter, listen, they're not, I think it's funny, but it was a miracle that they ever did LWA back in the day when there was an NWO because there were a lot of NWO members that were like, oh, this is making fun of what we do. So I don't think that they're going to sort of undermine the bloodline by doing that. But the pure fusion collective, well, their match goes to a no, or a no contest because the unholy union getting involved, Alba and Ayla, laying all of them out. We've got a triple threat next week. How do you feel about how they did this? They had the damage control promo, the pure fusion collective reveal. They did the match, it went to a no contest, but then they set up a title match off of that. >> All right, so I did like both promos, both the damage control and the pure fusion collective, the pure fusion collective promo as well. I didn't like the name, of course, because I just felt like it sounded too wordy and it didn't match the group. You see what I'm thinking, he doesn't match them, why are they called the pure fusion collective, why? >> Maybe I missed it. >> I don't know why, I don't get the name, so again, maybe just I'm on the same boat. But I do think that they could have had a cooler name, I think the internet had a bunch of them as we saw, stud line you mentioned being one of them. There was a lot of random stuff going out, being thrown out there, but I do think they could have thought of something cooler, and something tells me that they came up with this super last minute, cuz it had been a while till they gave them a name, and I feel like this was the best thing that they had. So it makes me wonder what other options they did have, but pure fusion collective, again, sounds like a gym, it sounds like I would go and get my body right over some place and some bougie place in Hollywood that charges like $350 for a membership. >> Does definitely seem like you get a smoothie there. >> Right, that's what I'm saying, you'd get yourself your workout, and then your little smoothie, and then your little towel, I was about to say I've ever been to these gyms. Do they have these kinds of gyms in Kentucky, like these super fancy frickin' gyms? >> Yeah, they got a gym on every corner, except my damn neighborhood. We can't get a 24 hour gym out here, it's driving me nuts, but yeah, they got plenty of them like that out here. But we got Tanner Hill sending a super chat, get him in, guys, super chats, humper chats. Cole said Rey Mysterio will be doing a fanatic signing with a mystery partner this weekend. It's gonna be a possible penta announcement, possibly. And I'll have some more on Fightful Select on Tuesday about why. Now I had reported last week that many thought that Penta could be in Orlando this week. Eboo of Russell Pierce said that there are people in WWE that believe that as well. We'll see. Now this could possibly tie into this comment that Adam Pierce made on the phone. He said, and I quote, yes, both of them, and I want it done by tonight. Both of them, do you think it means Sammy and Jay going to smack down for some reason? Do you think- >> I missed this, when did he say this? >> He said this on the phone before Drew approached him. And people are saying it could be Motor City machine guns, it could be Lucha Bros. But he said, yes, both of them, and I want to make sure it's done by the end of the night. >> Well, considering that we didn't see anything new at the end of the night with two new people, I'm guessing he was talking about something else. >> I think it's more inking the deal. >> Well, I completely missed that. I don't know, now I just feel clueless. I don't want to go out here and say it's going to be the Lucha Bros. That's too extreme. >> You should. >> Why? I don't want to give people false hope. >> Have you ever interviewed one of them? >> I've interviewed both of them multiple times. >> Okay, I wasn't sure. >> Come on Sean, keep up with the product. >> Listen. >> [LAUGH] >> I got a good interview I'm marking on. I'll tell you off air. >> I hope it's good. Is it in Spanish? >> It should be. >> In Spanish. >> Okay, I'll tell you who it is. >> I'd mark if you did one in Spanish. >> Listen, I'll tell you who it is in the private chat. And I think you would agree it would be very funny in Spanish. >> That would be very funny in Spanish. >> I think so. >> And it's funny is that you and I are both working on the exact same interview. >> Yep, well, there you go. There you go. >> That person is very, very in high demand is what I hear. >> I would imagine, I would imagine. Randy Orton promo backstage, or actually, Randy Orton was kind of walking backstage and he came across our truth and Miz, our truth saw Miz bummed out sad and said, it's okay, I got you a match with Braun. He's like an intercontinental title match with Braun Breaker. Isn't he facing Sammy Zayn? And he's like, oh, isn't this you? And it was Braunston Reed. Now, I like that the Miz is even, they kind of put over Braunston Reed. And that Miz was like, yeah, give me Braunston or Braun Breaker, not Braunston Reed, but Randy Orton hyped him up and was like, no, he doesn't have a chance, he doesn't have a chance at all. But he cuts a promo, he's interrupted by Goonter. Check out our interview with Goonter here on YouTube. But Orton says that pretty soon he'll be making his permanent home Raw once he wins the world title, talked about winning the world title 20 years ago this month. I like the heat here between Orton and Goonter. Randy ends up the last laugh, Drew walked out and it caused that distraction. And then CM Punk, who had claimed he wasn't there earlier in the evening, made the attack. But let's focus on the Orton Goonter aspect of it. How'd you feel about that? >> So the thing that I like about Goonter is that I never know what to expect from his promos in the sense that he always hits us with a little surprise. I feel like in the beginning when he did that promo with the Miz a long time ago, everybody thought, damn, Goonter's actually really good at promos. And then afterwards he had that promo with Damian Priest. And we were all sitting here going, what the hell just happened here? My God, what does it mean by street trash and all of these awful things, right? And then he does this promo with Randy Orton where he calls him a screw up and he brings up his grandfather, he brings up his father and I thought, that is low. But that is exactly what I like from Goonter. He comes across as a person who is on such a high horse, he looks down on you. He seems like the kind of person that will preach at you for being wrong. And he would tell you how his morals are better than yours. And I love that. I love that about Goonter because when, for example, when he called Damian Priest Street Trash, I believe him. That he believes that he believes that he truly is street trash. And when he said that Randy Orton was a screw up, I truly believe that that's what Goonter felt like. There was one thing that I thought kind of made Goonter look a little silly was when he said that Randy Orton was super predictable. And I thought, yeah, everyone knows he's going to hit his RKO out of nowhere. That's probably the most predictable thing about Randy Orton. And in the end, he got an RKO out of nowhere. And fricking Goonter didn't see it coming. So I kind of felt like he ended up screwing himself stepping on his own toes in regards to him saying Randy Orton was predictable and then didn't predict the most predictable Randy Orton thing ever. So that was the only portion of it I didn't like. But of course, Randy Orton did have to get the upper hand here in the segment. So whatever, I'll look past it. But that's what I was thinking about during this whole Goonter Randy Orton stuff. And I love that Goonter was seen in the background of the CM Punk shot, like throwing stuff around. Like he was very mad because Goonter, even when he almost loses during matches, he is calm and collected. So to see him lose his composure, I think is kind of cool to witness. We got CM Punk also say, yeah, I lied about missing a flight, big deal, which I'm sure will play into some tell me what I'm telling lies memes. But I like that Drew McIntyre before this was like, I don't care about CM Punk, I beat CM Punk. I'm good. I'm set. He was more worried about why Orton was getting a title shot as he should be. He was looking onward. And I respect that. I think that made sense. But now CM Punk's giving him reason to not look onward. But you know what you can look onward to Denise? What?

Get in your super chats, get in your hopper chats, crazy 101 says they should do Drew versus Punk Dog Collar match. Looks like they're doing a strat match, Denise. That seems to be the direction they're going. CM Punk teased that tonight. Yeah, I think with all of those belt shots, I mean, there's nothing more insulting than a man getting all of these, uh, hit by a belt that is his. He got hit with his own belt. Yeah. Tell me that's not insulting. Definitely, definitely giving another man backshots is for sure one of the more disrespectful things you can do. We got Bronson Reed. I don't think he should have sold for Miz at all. I don't think there should have been any of that. That's exactly what I was thinking about during this match. I didn't feel like Miz should have gotten any offense whatsoever. I was more surprised by how much offense he got in this match. I thought, I'm like, for sure, they're going to serve Miz on a platter to Bronson Reed. Oh, our truth took it way worse than the Miz. I was a little upset at this. Yeah, I didn't need that at all. But what I did need was the awesome, uh, finish to this segment. Dred King says, Bronson Reed destroying people quickly becoming my favorite part of the show. I mean, to do that to our truth, who is universally beloved, Denise. Everybody likes truth. Hard to dislike truth. He, he did, for those wondering, he did the same thing he did last week. He destroyed Seth Rollins. And now we know Seth Rollins has been written off the TV for a little bit, which, you know, that's a bummer. Hate to hear that. It seems like a nagging injury. Apologies. I've got the hiccups, but our truth, man, 52 year old, our truth getting done this way. And then him going back for more at the end, like, I think it should be a while before we see our truth. I don't think he should be on the show for like at least three, four weeks. Well, hey, man, if we're not going to see Seth Rollins for however long them, that means our truth's got to be out for even a little longer than that. Um, yeah, I thought, damn, I was expecting the miss to take like five, 10 tsunamis and now he took one and our truth took what six, I think it was, I don't even know how much it got to towards the end. But yeah, I was a little bit bummed out from, I was a little bit bummed out by the match because I thought like you really, really hit it so hard. Um, and they knocked it out of the park last week with him and Seth and I just kind of felt like today they kind of went to step backwards and thankfully he did the multiple tsunamis on our truth, which was great. But I really did think it would have hit harder had he had a more dominant match against the Miz. I thought the Miz was the easiest person for him to basically beat up. Yeah, I think that Miz shouldn't have gotten any offense. Just like you said. I think that what he did to our truth made an awful lot of sense. It was, it was ultimately good stuff, but like I didn't need, I did not need Miz getting any offense. I, and I understand the accolades that they hyped up prior and maybe, you know, if there is one saving grace to that, it's that Randy Orton said, no, you've done all this stuff. You've got a chance. But like we're talking about what didn't believe in that didn't believe like 13, 14 years ago, he made event in WrestleMania. So Pina Colada says the names group's name is pure, but that's not good. It's not pure what? But Basura. I don't. I don't know. There you go. I'm on Sean. There it is. Say it with. Okay. Bye. Oh, sorry. You're muted Denise. Look at that. Wow. Pina Colada says. I'm trying to educate you. I'm trying to culture. You up. Okay. Well, week two of Bronson Reed, absolutely smashing someone keep this train moving. Let's shoot for eight tsunamis next week. I would, I would love it. That dude is just laying them out, laying them out moms from Bronson Reed. Let's keep it going guys. Ah, get your super chats, get your humper chats in. We're at the main event. A breaker defeats Sammy Zayn to falls to one. This has been an outstanding feud that has played out largely on WWE Raw. Brombreaker wrestling, the type of guy he needs to be wrestling. Sammy Zayn, a ring general, someone who, I mean, Brombreaker doesn't need to be held by the hand. The dude is a natural. And hey, how about this? Like the whole lot better in that interview that you did with him as well. He's seeming more natural. No. Did you watch that? Yeah. Shawn, everybody was saying he looked uncomfortable and I'm like, guys, I swear to God, he's always like this. He's just always like that. He laughs this time. You know, that's why I was going to put it like make a little cute short, but I was like, no, I don't want to post the short because then everyone's going to talk shit to me. And I don't really. Guys. Listen, Brombreaker has come up to me and said, Oh, great to see you man, really excited to do this interview. And then we get on camera and that's just the way that's just the way that he is. And it's okay. He's a little, he's a little bit aloof. And that's all right. Because when that red light turns on on USA network, no, at least you're a man. Me people are like, because I was trying to like get them to be comfortable and people are like, oh, she's flirting with Brom, but I was not flirting with Brombreaker. I'm just nice and I was trying to make them feel comfortable and whatever. Right? Oh my God. Anyways, that's what happens. Anyway, this match ruled sunset, flip power bomb, blue thunder. The power slam over the barricade was phenomenal. These two with the camera angle, too. It's so good. These two have really great chemistry. You know, we haven't seen Elia this or didn't see Elia in the ring this week. I'm ready to see Braun move past Sammy Zayn and Elia for now. I'm, I'm ready to see that because he had this match tonight. He had gosh, it's been Elia and Sammy since, since June pretty much, which is wild to think that we're still doing hook and Jericho over on AEW and it's been like since February. Are you going to remind me for like, I was like, here's the thing, like I am. I like the combination of Brombreaker, Elia and Sammy, but I'm ready for him to move on past it. I don't like that combination on AEW and they've been doing it since February. Woah. Oh my God, but I want to see him take on somebody different. I want to see a fresh approach. Match was incredible, but is there anybody specifically you want to see next for Braun? So here's the thing. Like his match with Sammy Zayn, I feel like God, I think I even like this match better than the one that they did at summer slam. That one was a lot shorter though. This one, I thought was really good and it's funny because in the first fall, I had forgotten that it was two out of three falls, so I got in a throat. I was like, oh shit, when I saw Sammy Zayn get the fall, I was like, damn, for a second there, I thought it was over and I was so confused. But then I was like, oh yeah, it was a two out of three falls. But they've just, they've worked together so many times now that it's just gotten better and better. And I feel like they were doing like new stuff too, like the spear that Bronson that brought, I keep saying Bronson Reed, Jesus Christ, that Braunbreaker got on. Now there's gonna be rumors, I didn't, Bronson Reed, what did I say, Bronson Reed, Denise for Bronson Reed, this is getting ugly. All right, all I want to say here is that Braunbreaker getting that spear on Sammy Frickin Zayn was pretty cool because he had been coming off the top rope and then the timing of that was pretty spectacular. So I felt like they nailed it. Like they really were trying like different things here and there in this match, especially with that moment on the barricade, I thought that was cool too. So yeah, this was a fine match, man, this was a good main event. And I, oh, there was one thing I was gonna mention to you too that if you've noticed that the last couple of weeks, at least two weeks for sure now, this week and I, one more week before that for sure, where we've closed out with Braunbreaker being the last image that you see on Monday Night Raw and that just tells me that they're really gonna make him that guy. He's gonna be that guy. >> Gonna be a lot, gonna be a lot of Raw's like that. So Roman Reigns, Braunbreaker, spear off, is gonna feed some families here. Guys, subscribe to FightfulSelect.com, please leave a thumbs up on this video. If you are in the YouTube comments, leave a comment, do the roll call. We would love to talk to you guys, see you guys, it helps us out an awful lot. FightfulSelect.com this week, we got even more contract news for you. We are on top of that, there has been no outlet better in the history of wrestling, reporting contract news than FightfulSelect, jump on board, plus we got that Discord. On all end day, I am gonna scoot over there into that Discord, that AEW all in chat, drop some spoilers over there, some scoops, all kinds of news. I mean, Tony Khan's teasing big announcements. I think one of them is gonna make Fightful look pretty doggone good based on some recent reporting. But Denise, tell the people what you got. All right, two things, youtube.com/denysalcedo, constantly posting content on there, guys, go check it out, really mean a whole lot to me. And then Instagram, I've been growing my Instagram page, if you guys haven't checked me out there at_denysalcedo. TikTok recently kicked me out of their creators program, so I'm a little salty about that, so if you guys can, show some support on my Instagram content, because yeah, TikTok did me dirty, so hey, so go to Instagram at_denysalcedo. What original creators on Twitter as well, like listen, I understand I'm the guy that asks you for $5 all the time, but listen, if you ain't offering an original thought or something, just retweet the original tweet from the person who reported it, or quote tweet it and share your thoughts or something like that, because trust me, if TikTok's getting tired of paying people, Elon Musk is going to get very tired of paying people, especially after the frustrating night that he had doing an interview with the presidential candidate and it's still getting out-trended on Twitter by a run of the mill, WWE Monday Night Raw, go figure. Tom Brady. That's me? Yes. Exactly. I was going to say that that happened already, because I saw the announcement, but I didn't know when it was. How do you feel about NXT guys in the end one? I'm glad they're doing it. It makes sense for them to get that type of experience that they otherwise wouldn't get. I think it's a very, very good idea. Do you think Julia wrestles at No Mercy? I'll say yes, but I don't have any information indicating that she will and who will a TNA person face Oba tomorrow? Fightful Select reported Josh Alexander is supposed to come in at some point, but they announced Otis versus Oba. Now unless they do a thing where Josh Alexander takes him out, I think they'll still do this match after building it up on Raw, but I think eventually Josh Alexander is over there doing that. And thank you all so much. Until next time, we're out. At your job, do you ever have to deal with a nose roller? How about a snub bully?
