Sean Ross Sapp, welcome to Fightful. It is July 8th, 2024. We're here for your post-WWE Raw Review. We had money in the bank and NXT Heatwave this weekend. I did a review on Saturday with Wheezy, Alex and Kate. Had you covered on Sunday? I'll backpat over Fightful Select. As we go through the show, we've got Denise Salcedo back here with us. Denise, how you doing? I'm doing really good coming off of that ending of Monday Night Raw today. I got to tell you, I wasn't expecting what we ended up getting at the very end. Well, your boy was, and if you subscribe to FightfulSelect.com, I see I was so excited to get that out, subscribe to FightfulSelect.com. You would have seen in our pre-raw notes that Rhea Ripley had been discussed for a return. I want to say about three weeks ago, there was a word, "Oh, she's not going to be back till SummerSlam." And FightfulSelect.com, best $5 in the business, dropped a report saying, "No, that is not the case. She is discussed for an on-screen role before then. She is back. We're here to talk about it with all you beautiful, wonderful people." Please leave a thumbs up on this video. If you're watching on X, Twitter, Twitch, whatever that may be, you can send a humper chat at humperchats.com, you know, like a camel sump, or like what Liv and Dom were about to do in the main event of Raw. And you can donate a super chat here at youtube.com/fightful. Over the weekend, Joel Pearl interviewed, very quick talks with Carmelo Hayes, LA Knight, and Tiffany Stratton. Make sure you guys check that out. But hey, leave us a thumbs up. And if you're watching after the fact, leave a comment on the video. I am in there every day talking with you guys in the comments. I am also talking with you guys every day on FightfulSelect.com and our Discord. Enough of the plugs. Let's get right down to it. Denise, something very terrible happened today. Well, what was that? Dom's going to be in the dog house. Is that the terrible thing that happened today? No, I was minding my own business. Just not, you know, not doing anything really that bad. I said that I could beat up Effie in a wrestling match numerous times. Some would say to an annoying degree and for some reason, GCW decided to book me against Effie next week. And what they decided to do, Denise, is to use a selfie from Chris Van Vliet's website, not from this decade. I did not live in this area code when I took this photo. I'm sorry, but you guys look like twins. You guys have the same eyes, the same nose. Maybe if I wouldn't have cut my hair. If legitimately, I'll say this. Hey, well, me and Effie do not have the same facials. You sicko. You freak. How dare you say anything like that. Don't be talking about my facials. You don't know anything about that. You don't ever speak on that. Hey, hey, hey. All I'm going to say is this like who gets to wear that face on a pole match? I'm not wearing anybody's face on my pole. You guys have the exact same face pole Denise, stop it. You guys have put it up. You guys look exactly like twins. We do look there. Listen, you know what? There are worse people to look like. Effie's a good looking fella. If I still have my lone hair. I'm like. I'll tell you what, if I still have my long hair, I would show up with it bleached. Yeah, I wouldn't be able to tell you guys the part. It would be like Effie versus Effie. Well, guys, you know, assuming that I don't kill wrestling in like what is like my fifth or sixth match back. We are raising money for a very, very good cause. The dementia society of America, you can go over to my Twitter. The link is all over the place. It's DementiaSociety.org. It's a cause that is very close to my heart. I lost my grandmother a couple months ago. The most important person in my life, two dementia. And anytime I wrestle, I'm pretty sure I couldn't get paid anyway. I don't think anybody would pay me to wrestle. But the companies that booked me always donate to that cause. And that's what I always redirect funds and any support to. So please check out DementiaSociety.org. And for some reason, I'll be a headliner's music hall. Thursday, July 18th, Louisville, Kentucky. At GCW, believe me. Then he's the last time I worked GCW. I main evented the show. I don't remember that. I only have one memory of you in GCW. Yeah, that's what I main evented the show. No, it's in the floor holding your nuts because I gave you a low blow and you got eliminated from the GCW clusterfuck. And you were crying. I wasn't crying. You were crying. There were just tears coming out of my face. I wasn't crying. You were crying. You were like, "Uh-huh-huh-huh." That's not crying. That's weeping. Yeah, no, you were crying and you were like in pain. Serious pain. Well, I will say this. You delivered a low blow better than Tonga Loa. You know, it's funny. I have so much pride in that. A man hit two heads that day. Damn, bro. Dude. Okay. I can honestly say that there's something that I do better than than a professional wrestler. And that is I can hit a better freaking low blow than him. Come on. I gotta own that. I'm very proud of that. We got bad apple jam tree beard saying, so Effie is about to eff up Sean. You see, I see. Well, you know what, listen, I disagree with that. But how about this? Any Effie SRS related super chats over the next couple of weeks will also go to the Dementia Society of America. So thanks for that, I guess. But we do have WWE Raw to talk about. Fightfulselect.com. Best $5 in the business reported that CM Punk was kicking off tonight's show. He came out. He talked about Drew McIntyre a little bit. But then he's interrupted by Seth Rollins. And Seth Rollins is not happy. Seth was like, you know, my attention was diverted a little while after you went and got hurt. But then you went and got my attention because you didn't just cost Drew McIntyre the world championship. You cost me the world championship. And on top of that, you cost me any potential opportunity to win that world championship while Damian Priest is champion. So Seth Rollins understandably pissed off here. And CM Punk, it's so funny because like, even in kayfabe, it's so hard for him to apologize. I love that he has at least embraced that because that's how even his supporters see him. You can't imagine him saying, sorry, my bad. And then he does. He apologizes. And then he goes, but because it's you, I can't really be that sorry about it. Ooh, I can't wait. This, this is the multi-layered type of story that is really excelling in WWE right now. We actually saw a little bit in AEW too with Osprey, MJF and the people that they're feuding with. I like this where it's not linear one person and they never pay attention to anybody else. I really love this. We're going to spend some time on this one, Denise. Oh, I have quite a bit to say about this because there were some things that I liked, some things that I questioned and some things that I felt that were left unsaid. So I guess I'll start off with a lot of what, okay, I'm going to start off with the part of seeing him punk and dressing Drew McIntyre. I'll start there because it kind of reminded me. So he had mentioned like, oh, I'll beat up Drew McIntyre anywhere. I'll beat him up here. I'll beat him up anywhere, right? And it reminded me of when Chris Jericho did the segment with Chris firewall where he said, I'll beat Benoit up on a boat on a goat when he's a blushing bride. And so I obviously, you know, Jericho didn't better because it was totally different and we had images and stuff. But for a second there, I thought CM Punk was ready to go in that direction where he was about to start naming all of these places. So right away when CM Punk did that, that's immediately where my head went to on a boat on a goat. It kills me every time. So anyways, the part with Seth Rollins though. So this was interesting because the way that you saw this promo play out, everybody here can agree that Seth Rollins won because he had the mic drop moment, right? He even used some of CM Punk's own words back at CM Punk. However, I feel like CM Punk or the way that this segment was formatted, they did not let CM Punk truly be CM Punk here because we all know had they waited just a second, had they not done the mic drop moment, CM Punk still had a whole lot more that I think he could have said there. And I feel like they intentionally cut off the legs of CM Punk in this segment to help make Seth Rollins look good here. And so when I was watching this, I was thinking, damn, I feel like they made CM Punk hold back here to make Seth Rollins look good in this segment because we all know that there was plenty more that could have been said there, especially from CM Punk. I know for a fact he had at least five to ten different burns or reactions that he would have told. Or just the hockey reference or something. Anything. I feel, I felt like this moment, it was of course set up to have Seth Rollins have the final word there, but it felt incomplete to me at the end because I do think that CM Punk could have hit him back with a couple of jabs there. And there was only one part, and maybe you could explain to me, there was only one part that I did not like in the Seth Rollins promo. And that's when he called CM Punk the dumbest smart dude. I thought, Seth, what are you talking about? Listen, I definitely got what he meant there, like CM Punk is a very smart and savvy guy. He can be very smart at certain things, but dumb at other things. Like, it makes dumb decisions. And I mean, listen, have I heard CM Punk explained with that terminology in the past? Yes, I have a very rich man who has cost himself some opportunities and some situations like that. But yeah, I saw that and I was like, okay, they're just... It just looked at the strongest, I think, use of words, because even CM Punk was like, did you really just say that? Yes, and Elite Biscuit says Seth might dropping on Punk's motif of actions, have consequences, was a chef's kiss. Well, I mean, if that's the common criticism of CM Punk is that he's a hypocrite, use his stuff against him, nonstop, because I think that's what he did there. Like, I think that's the smart thing to play off of, and I think that's the right thing to do. Nick DeVito says, hey, guys, after tonight's show, do you think Punk is definitely cleared for Summerslam? Do you think, guys, thank you, guys, for everything. Content is top tier. Well, thank you, Nick. After what I saw on Saturday, I was like, man, he's got to be close to some sort of clearance if he's doing all that, because I mean, back in the day, if you weren't cleared, you were on a pretty strict no-contact list in WWE. You weren't allowed to do anything like that. Meet Norma says, pay attention, I'm trying to super chat, well, Punk be cleared sooner, we'll Seth Drew win the tag titles at Summerslam, then coexist and lose them, and have a triple threat with Punk down the line, I hope not. I don't want to see Seth and Drew coexisting, even though, you know, what CM Punk is enough of a foil for the two of them, to where I think it could bring them together a little bit. Do you think that's possible? I can see Drew doing it, because Drew seems like he would do anything, absolutely anything, go to the end of the world to just try to end CM Punk. So I can see him befriending what's the saying is the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Yeah, and that is exactly how I can see that playing out with Drew Seth and CM Punk, because right now, CM Punk is enemy number one. Tony says Seth cooked Punk. I like the story that Punk's ego and pettiness have now gotten to Seth or now gotten Seth who wasn't involved now wanting to get involved and wanting to target him too. I hope it leads to Seth costing his match with Drew. If he's not, Drew still needs to win. I think that the situation is masterful. It was planned for Punk and Rollins at Mania. And Denise, you and I witnessed the real setup for that at Royal Rumble Media Day at a 2K event like a year and a half ago. If you remember Nick Howesman doing that interview. Oh, yes. I was like, where are you going with this? What did we witness? Yes. Because like if you're in media, you can tell when somebody else is getting a headline and it was so funny because you and I were waiting on an interview and he's doing that interview with Rollins. And he looked at us like, you all see this big fucking headline I'm getting right here? Yeah. And we were like, oh my God, he's really saying this. But he said it in a way that was enough in character that it could be played off of. So it really started then. And then when Punk did show up, because listen, Rollins knew there was a real possibility that Punk was going to get himself fired and end up back in WWE. Didn't think it was going to happen, but knew it was a possibility. So they had that set up. But when Punk gets hurt, Rollins does other stuff and boy, it's bigger than anybody could have imagined, main eventing WrestleMania. But while Rollins is out, he can't really continue that feud. So the Drew thing worked out perfectly now to weave them into one another. And Rollins to be like, all right, you little bitch, this is why I didn't like you to begin with. I think it's really great. >> No, I mean, this is definitely something that we were starting to get. Obviously, we all know that this was the WrestleMania match that we were supposed to see. And we didn't. And when we saw that little confrontation with Seth Rollins and CM Punk last night, I'm sorry, two nights ago at Money in the Bank, it felt like, okay, at least that's still something that's happening because I feel like they truly got something good there because you mentioned the Nick Housman thing. And yeah, the second that Seth Rollins started going off calling him a cancer and all of this, I almost feel like, I don't know what are the chances. I guess the chances are high because nowadays I feel like sometimes in a lot of wrestlers, Shawn, and you know this, they're afraid to talk to the media sometimes. And they're afraid to talk to people because sometimes they get set up for clickbait. They get set up for clickbait and they are afraid of answering certain questions. So I feel like, okay, what did Seth Rollins, what was going through his mind when he started going off and calling CM Punk a cancer? Did he have some sort of hints, some sort of anything that CM Punk would possibly be going back to WWE? And of course, this was ten months before though. Yeah, I know that's what I'm saying. That's why I think it's like something that I don't know. I just feel like Seth Rollins would know that that would definitely be something that gets picked up. So maybe he just did it on purpose. Maybe that's how he truly feels. I don't know if this is a mixture of how he truly feels or him trying to set stuff up for down the horizon. I don't know, but it worked out perfectly. We got Ke 775 saying so to Seth cost Punk the Summerslam match versus Drew doesn't seem like there's a match for him at this moment. Oh, there will be a match for them. Like there's reason for a match, I'm sure. Like there's enough of one, I think. Bad Apple, James Treebeard says Punk and Seth versus Drew and Wade Barrett. Night one and next year's Mania before Drew versus Punk match on night two. Seth can take a chair shot for Punk to save him to answer meets question. I think we're getting Drew and Punk well before that. This seems hot and ripe for Summerslam or Bad Blood. Like if they have bad blood and they don't do that match. Oh boy, man. So interesting happening backstage. Seth Rollins runs into Damian Priest and I have loved Damian Priest title run because it has been him addressing in kayfabe the legitimate criticisms of him, which are that he's not effective as a main eventer. Boba Blah rides Judgment Day's coattails and in kayfabe, he's like, no, I don't want Judgment Day involved. I want to do this on my own. And Seth Rollins is like, you're a man of your word. I'm a man of my word. I'm not coming after that title. And he said, you definitely were lucky, but you were good as well, but you're going to have to be better than good when you face Gunther. And then Damian Priest, likely because of the respect that Seth Rollins showed him and I think a little bit to play off of the three count that didn't happen Denise. He says, you know what, forget that that agreement ever happened. If you want a title shot after Summerslam, go for it. Now, I don't think he's going to have the title after Summerslam, but I think it was a good plot point there. What did you think of all this? I think that this was kind of a nice gesture to do because it meant a lot when Seth Rollins told Damian Priest that he did a good job and that there was that mutual respect there. So I feel like this little segment, even though it's very brief, very quick, went further than they probably anticipated. Yeah, so FightfulSelect.com had a report this weekend up on the Damian Priest non kick out. So Triple H kind of mentioned it. It was, you know, not a, it wasn't something, you know, that they necessarily they're happy about, but not something to dwell on either. And the general consensus I got was Damian Priest rarely messes up. He's probably more upset about it than anybody. He probably shouldn't beat himself up over it. Now, I had some people saying, yeah, well, why didn't the ref count the three as a shoot, which is what they used to be taught to do. Interestingly enough, Denise, he's the same ref that got fined for counting the three at WrestleMania when Rousey didn't have her shoulders down, which keep in mind, they went over that a hundred times and every other time she had her shoulder down until that. This was a much different situation as people outlined to me in WWE. He couldn't call it as a shoot because that would, one, kick Damian Priest out of Judgment Day, two, make Seth Rollins the world champion, three, mess up the Triple Threat aspect of what they were about to do with Drew McIntyre, and then make the Rollins vs Drew title match where Drew cashed in a DQ match. So if Punk had interfered, he still could have cost Drew the title, but there wouldn't have been as much to complain about on Drew's behalf. It's just an unfortunate situation. Okay, so what exactly did go wrong? Why didn't Damian put his arm up? Don't know. I haven't found that out yet. Okay, because that's just, I mean, I get why, because I'm on the side of the referee counts. Like, he doesn't know what the finish is, just counts and does his job. That's the side that I'm on. And I also understand why he didn't do it, though, because again, like you said, that would change a lot of things and would change the champion and would change a lot of what was supposed to happen. But so I guess the big question is why, what happened? Why didn't Damian kick out? I am going to find that out. That's really the only real question. And Apex Caliber says, "Preece offered to Seth Negotiates his rage at Punk, in my opinion." I disagree with that. A lot of it is the principle. And if you remember, Seth had issues with CM Punk being a selfish human being, being very self-absorbed and not caring about anybody else but himself and not accepting responsibility. This, just as much, was over Seth realizing that Punk hasn't changed at all. Hasn't changed at all. And like, I don't think it negates it at all. Seth had a world title match here. Seth could have still won that match. Like, so no, Punk got involved. What was the Super Chat? I didn't hear that part. They said that they believe that Price offered to Seth and the Gates his rage at Punk, but it doesn't at all. Punk still got involved in Seth Rollins' world title match and cost him that match and proved to be the same guy that he's always been to Seth Rollins. Cadillac Carson says feels like Bad Blood would be Drew and Punk at Hell in a Cell. Yes, God, I hope so. I hope so. I have to see him punk shit on the Hell in a Cell idea. Stop with that fantasy booking bullshit. Denise, we are getting degrees closer to Taylor Swift maybe called Bad Blood. Hey, they did a song. They did a commercial with Metro Boomin for Bad Blood. Metro Boomin does songs with Kendrick Lamar. Kendrick Lamar was on Bad Blood. Huh? Huh? Shawn, do you? I don't think you understand how big and famous Taylor Swift is. That's like trying to get, never mind. I'm not going to go there. Not more famous than me as I go to face Effie. Oh, jam tree beard says Effie is about to F up Shawn. I see no. And then he says, after the Effie match, we'll be getting Dan housing versus Sean housing match. You also look like Dan housing. All you have to do is put on a makeup on and I swear to God, you're Dan housing. Okay, so I've been around. I've met Dan housing like 15 times. I realized the last time that it was the first time I had ever seen him without his paint on. Ever. And no, let me tell you this. I've seen him without his without. Exactly. And let me just tell you this. We don't look a thing alike. Yeah, you do. Yeah, you do. If you did, if Sean, if look at this. If you did, Sean, if you did, Sean, if you did the face paint just like this, you would look just like Dan housing. I have a beard. Do the face. We don't look anything alike. Yeah, you do. You even got the same little hair. Look, people, this is. No, not without the paint. I'm saying with the paint guys with the paint with the paint. Will Chisholm says any news on the machine guns. We have not reported anything on this photo online. Stop it. Pat Farugas says, what career moment are you each most proud of? Well, in overall, getting selected. Oh, yeah, without the makeup, you don't. But with the makeup, you do. With the makeup, you do. With the makeup, you look like Dan housing. What are we talking about here? Oh, yeah. That's Denise. That's like saying, you know what, you look a lot like Rey Mysterio with the Rey Mysterio mask on. Uh, now that's racist. Anyway, Pat Farugas says, what career moment are you most proud of? If we're talking about in writing and in media, select at 10,000 was nice. Raising like six grand for Nami for my wrestling mattress Shaza last year was a good one. Denise, do you have a favorite moment? Of what? Up your career. Please listen. Oh, I'm sorry. I was still thinking about you looking like Dan housing. Oh, God. Come on. Do I have a favorite moment? Denise, here you go. You can think about it while I tell the people about NordVPN, or high-paper-view prices getting to you. Maybe MLB Blackouts, maybe the insane cost of Sunday ticket, whatever, whatever it might be. NordVPN.com/fifle is here to help. You get NordVPN.com/fifle. You change your virtual location with one click. Uh, maybe you want to be in the West Coast when you can't watch a game on the East Coast. They got you covered.

But you know what, in 30 days, if you don't like it, spoiler you will, you can get your money back. NordVPN.com/fifle. Apple James' Denise Nerke was not like Sting with the face paint. Oh, I have -- because I have Sting's -- I so have Sting's jawline, yeah, for sure. Guys, look at the shape of the face. You have the shape of his face. Anyway, Big Meg says, "You guys are the best together. Great chemistry. Denise is a great step host." Sean, what are your thoughts of Denise's definition of juicy? You're going to have to fill me in here, Denise. Everybody's been making me explain this. First, I had to explain it to Kate. Now I have to explain it to you. I'm tired of explaining this. What is it? You can put it together. What do you think juicy means? And by the way, Kate agreed with me. So technically, I already got someone to agree with me, so I'm done making this case. I don't want to have to explain it again. Eddie says Chelsea Green for Women's Champion 2025. Fightful Select had a report today about her getting a lot of praise backstage, not just for her bump, but the promotion of money in the bank. So instead of saying the H word, I say juicy when I'm in the mood. Yeah, you know what? I think it's, you know, that's fair. It's fair. Alan says almost 15 years. I've been watching wrestling as the most fun I've ever had watching. Thank you for everything you do in reporting. Thank you for giving us shit. We appreciate you. Hey, look at this. Why isn't glaciers of ice kicks make my make me some new shoes by next week for my match with that? How about that? How about that one? Shout out to them. Poppy Costo says I love punk's character right now. He's the perfect tweener. And in my opinion, based on observations might be who he actually is. I relate. Yeah, I think this is very close to his his just actual personality. I really do. Yeah. Orlando Orago says, I hope they don't book drew versus punk versus set. Oh, they're going to eventually. They got to do that eventually. I would hope so. I would hope so. J Miller says a few former wrestlers were saying, Priest got his bell rung. If you watch his right hand, it shakes a bit. So it looks like a potential stinger. He didn't continue after that. I'm going to work to find out what actually happened. I'm going to see what I can find out. Apple jam tree beard says they could do drew versus punk at summer slam to a rematch at bad blood. Do you think triple H will give them something like a strap match? I think a cage match hell in the cell match. That's what I'm thinking. So I'm thinking you go into Atlanta for bad blood Denise. I don't know. We had fun in Atlanta. That was a good time. It was a good time. It was a good time. We got harassed on the Internet by irrelevant nerds over that one. That was fun. But we got punk money. I already lost track of how many times we're getting harassed on the Internet by irrelevant nerds. But people who could not buy ad space on Fightful. And we compromised there. I already lost track. There you go. Punk me to that in Pierce. Adam Pierce says, you know what? You can't be here next week. Drew McIntyre is going to be here. We'll chat about it. Ryan Sully says, happy eight year anniversary Fightful. Yes, our eighth birthday was this weekend. You hit the Ocho. Yeah. And he says, say the Ocho Sean. Say the Ocho. Say the Ocho. It's the Ocho. Say Fightful Fightful is Ocho. You're just milking the clock at this point Denise is five year anniversary on the raw post shows coming up September 16th, which happens to be on a Monday should have a celebration. We will have a celebration on September 16th. And we'll chat. Ryan Sully. Ryan Sully. Thank you for remembering that. He says, Raw was a hoot. Thanks for the A plus content. Cheers. And I mean, hey, listen, I'll tell you this, no matter what issues you guys have with the live Dom storyline, it's better than the love angle she was in when Denise was starting with Fightful. Yeah. Wasn't she doing, wasn't she doing the Lana and Lana Lashley. Yeah. Remember that. That was fun. So we get Jey Uso defeating Chad Gable because the lights go out. Jey Uso beats Chad Gable. So it promotes it puts Jey Uso over a little bit. This is the lights gone. He goes yeet and then it runs. He's the smartest person there. I love it. Chad Gable is bit over and then still saved his life. Are you kidding me? Jey is the smartest person there. And Chad hits the brick. So I like this. Chad is clearly targeted by the riots regardless. Jey Uso gets his win. I'm fine with that. He gives another VHS to Pat. At this point, they just need to wheel out the cart like in elementary school with the VHS and the old TV. Like they just got to know at this point. It's going to happen, Denise. Yeah. I mean, that's what it is. But I do want to take it. So this is random, but I want to shout out the fan. I don't know if you caught this, but there was a fan that yelled at Chad Gable that there was someone behind him. Did you catch that? I didn't. I didn't. It was hilarious. And that fan kind of made that segment for me because as Chad Gable was running, you just hear the fan like crystal clear yell it out that there's someone behind him. And it was perfect timing. And I think Chad Gable heard it too because he fed off of that. And then he fell on the floor backwards. The second the fan yelled it. So it was almost like it just worked out a lot better. That was my favorite part, man. That's good. I'm going to go back and listen to that. Yeah, you can hear it crystal clear. Like you saw what's behind you and then he falls. We have a new Bo Dallas promo. He says that the people in the Wyatt family were discarded and forgotten about and now they're very happy. He's clearly also targeting Chad Gable who now you think backstage confronts Adam Pierce and Adam Pierce is like, man, I've doubled security. What the hell do you want me to do? And Gable is like, okay, fine. I'm going to handle it in my way, which I'm interested to find out what his way is. Then he's like, and also I need a vacation. That's how he's handling it. He's going on vacation vacation, paid vacation. Then Adam opens the door and Bo Dallas is sitting inside smiling. Do you think that Bo Dallas and Adam Pierce are in Cahoots Denise? No, why? How else could all this? How could they keep getting through? How could they keep showing? They have terrible security. We've seen terrible security over and over in WWE doubled security. They didn't just know it's not enough. Come on. How many times have we seen have we seen security just get taken out by like one tiny little shot. We just saw one guy, one security guard, and on NXT get taken out with a one back fist. Bam. Out. There you go. So listen, somebody said they said this isn't a spooky group. No, do not misrepresent what was reported on Fight for Select.com. We said there are not supernatural elements to this plan. There have not been. You can run a fog machine and crawl under the ring all you want. It's supernatural element. They're still using VHS. Come on now. If this were four years ago, they just projected that shit onto the ring with some worms or something. What do we do? Gable is spotted backstage with the creeds later on. Rockard Joel Woods says, assuming Roman returns at SummerSlam, how do you think Jay starts to get incorporated back into that story? A Roman reigns apology, I think. I think that Roman realizes the value of family. Bronson reads backstage. He talks some trash. Passion, drive, and patience.

To Sheamus, but then he says, "Nah, bud, I'm going to face Pete Dunn, but I'll get you soon." It is revealed that Tyler Bate unfortunately sustained an injury at NXT last week, but Bronson Reed ends up winning this match. And Sheamus makes the save. Now, Dunn is a little bit hesitant, but right now, if Tyler Bate isn't going to be around a while, Ridge Holland already hit the bricks. I like the idea of Sheamus and Dunn like teaming up. I think that'd be kind of cool. Dude, the idea that I don't just like but that I love is seeing Bronson and Sheamus going at it with each other. I've been waiting for Bronson to kind of have his big moments, and I feel like this feud with Sheamus could be the map. It could be that, sorry, it could be the feud that puts him on the map on the main roster. I have been waiting for this because I feel like it's been, when he came into the roster, it was like a little bit of stop and go. And he really hasn't had anything going on that was huge in the last couple of months, right? It's been a while since we really had him in any storyline. He's sort of just been there. And so I've been wanting to see something like this and Sheamus is 100% the perfect person to have a series of matches, tell a cool story of just two guys that can both kick ass, but they're two totally different types of competitors. But I think that they can tell a really cool story there. And this match with Bronson and Pete Dunn, I enjoyed it. It was very short. I was actually a little disappointed when it ended because I thought we could have had a lot more, but given everything that happened on Monday Night Raw, there was sort of just enough time for everything, I guess. But man, also, that tsunami that he hit at the end looked extra painful this week. So shout out to Bronson Reed. Yeah, it was so good. Our Fightful Select discord like I saw blow up whenever he hit the tsunami. But again, I don't know what he did different today, but it looked a little different. Some of them look good. Some of them look really great. Sending well, which is the Tyler bait, not just him. Jordan Oliver really had a torn ACL. Brittany Brooks on the Indies, torn ACL. She's a standout. Like, I think she'll be signed. I mean, honestly, if she wouldn't have torn her ACL, I think she would have probably been signed by WrestleMania. I expect to see her sign next year. Jordan Oliver as well. Whenever he's back, I'm surprised he hasn't been signed. Man, I feel like we've been seeing a lot of torn ACL news now. I feel like they're just rough being handed out. You get an AC. Oh, I hate it. That sucks. Mr. Acosta says, I love it wasn't Bo as Uncle Howdy in the office. Yeah, it needed to be Bo. And when I send all the good thoughts out to Maria, I hope all the medical stuff she's going through right now goes all the best. Me too. And one of her clients on ROH TV co-carder broke his arm and had surgery injury bug going around, man. You hate to see it like sending our love to those people. Sammy Zane comes out and cuts a promo and I was so interested in how Braun Breaker would react to a clean as a sheet loss. Would he be like Gunther and be like, you know what, you bested me? Sometimes that happens. No, this man's a sore loser. Attack Sammy Zane. And oh boy, it was pretty funny. So the spears were filthy, just rough looking. And then we get the spot. Will Chisholm says the Sammy promo felt like he was hitting back at the fans who was mad that he beat Braun. Yeah, what did you think of the Sammy promo before we get to what happened? The promo was good. I was under the impression just and he called it out and called everybody out on it. I was under the impression that Braun Breaker was getting that win. And I felt bad because I had said that every other match was a little harder to predict. And to me, I thought that was going to be the easiest match to predict. And then it ended up being the one that I got completely wrong. And so I like him coming out and talking about that. That was good. And then for the actual portion of when Braun Breaker came out, when he started talking and at first he seemed really sincere in his intentions like he almost seemed to come out and pay some respects to Sammy Zane for being the better man that night. I am the second. I forgot what the last line that he said was. But he said something right before he went right into that spear and it was hilarious because I didn't see it coming at that particular moment because the way that he set it up. It made me think for a second that he was going to shake this man's hand, call it a day. I mean, not call it a day, but I don't know. I was trying to find some other way that he would probably find a way to get this rematch. And I love that his reasoning for getting the rematch was just like, well, I'm going to attack this guy, piss him off, and I'm going to get myself my rematch. And that's exactly what I would want to see from Braun Breaker because I don't want to see him come out here and like, I don't know, this is this is a version I want to see. Tony says, Sean, can we please get your best version of Braun Breaker doing the are fooling Adam Pierce with the look over there. Yeah, it was this. And then you just shove him over. That is exactly what it was. We're going to get copyright claim for that. So send in our super chats and humper chats. So what I want you to drag enough is defending Sammy's honor. And once a match, and you know, I was like, damn, is Eli going to lose another one. I mean, they've got great chemistry. They work hard but Eliya beats Braun via DQ after a chair is thrown and Sammy tries to come and get involved again. Not taking a pandemic. People get really worked up about Eliya losing on Twitter, but he's still put in these important positions. And rock hard Joel Wood says Sammy needs to call his hero Brett Hart, ask if he has any more of those metal plates to hide under his shirt next time he's in the ring with one. If you know, you know, listen, it made a lot of sense to do this that they are running back matches like like this and I'm like, okay, over and over again, not like that would be a problem but so far. I'm like, okay, we're clearly getting another bronze Sammy match. They could add Eliya to it as well. Do you think he ends up being involved in a triple threat. I feel like he should. I feel he definitely should. And but that's the thing though, I have agreed all the other weeks where I feel like Eliya, the losses that he took. We all had a reason or an explanation for why he took those losses the last couple of weeks. When they announced that this match was happening again, I thought, oh man, is he going to lose again today. And then I thought, all right, well, let's, you know, let's see what happens right really good match. Of course, it is what it is the DQ when he threw him the chair. I can't with this guy. He's selling it's terrific. It's terrific. It's a lot but it's terrific. And I feel like yeah you have to add Eliya to this at this point just to kind of shake things up. But you do also have to have them start to look a little bit starts to get some wins right again. Yeah, I understand why he lost all the other times it made sense to the story that was being told at that time. But now we do need to start seeing him get some wins but this is also a testament to him though because he goes out there and he has such hard hitting performances that even though he loses your like this guy does not suck like this guy kicks ass man. That guy. Sammy Zane cutting the promo on, you know, people who didn't believe in him, our partners at BetOnline AG. Listen, we love them earliest lines that big fastest payouts, industry best bonuses, safe and secure payouts and minutes high credit card acceptance. We've told you about all that at BetOnline AG. But they had Braunbreaker favored. There were like four underdog winners this past weekend. They had Braunbreaker winning too. They did as well. They also had trick Williams as a minus 1000 favorite. Anybody who bet on Ethan Page made some money there but not just that. Also Chase you was favored. I ended up picking Nathan Frazier and Axiom at the last moment on our discord. So that was an underdog pick that we gave you. In addition to that, I thought that Carmen Petrovic and Ariana Grace who were just slight favorites were one of the most slam dunk possible wins that there were because of them being local to the area. So you could have made a little bit of money on that one as well. Tiffany Stratton, of course, big favorite. Damien Priest was a slight favorite. That's one you all could have benefited from as well. But Drew McIntyre was an underdog. He started as the favorite became an underdog. And then Jey Uso finishes the favorite. So listen, you could have made some good money on BetOnline AG this week. And hey, you can as well this weekend. They've got TNA odds up right now as well. They sarcastically said they were gonna set odds for me and Effie. And for some reason they said that I would be like a plus 40,000 underdog. And I don't. Well, you're just gonna make people go broke or you're gonna make people go really rich. I don't know. Yeah, but Trevor L says was Elio. Okay. I hope so. But it'd be cool to see the fencing position disappear from selling. I was more worried about that cut on his leg. I didn't even notice the cut on his way. Yeah, it was pretty bad. Pretty nasty little cut that he had there. Yeah, but Ryan Sully says rewatch the first episode of the raw potion with Denise. Do you still have those pink headphones Denise. No, those died a long time ago. I thought about this where we should go back and rewatch that first episode. But at the same time, I don't want to, because I'm just gonna cringe. I don't want to see myself. I'm sorry. I don't. It's like seeing your old Facebook posts. Yeah, it's embarrassing. And I feel like I've changed a lot since then. And I don't want to see myself for sure. You have, you have. Oh, you don't think you've changed. Bro, you had the freaking long ass hair. Of course, of course I did. I feel like personality. I mean, you changed. Come on. Braun breakers just a natural on the mics as Ryan Sully cut another fantastic promo and raw talk. Final Testament promo. Kofi is hurt. Xavier's going to try to fight him himself. We'll see how that goes. You know what we should do Sean. Watch that same episode that we watch on raw and see if we agree with our own opinions. Oh my God, that would be such a terrible. Right, because I'd be like, what did I say that I didn't even work. Love for boost says just want to say Rio is tough as hell. Yeah, fight will select. Unfortunately, reported on our free tier. She's injured. You could sock a Zaki injured as well. Said she just acted just like Daniel so much you broke her arm realized something is wrong and kept going like she's okay. Yeah, sending our love to her too. That really sucks. Ke 775 and Ryan asked for an Italian update says do you think that she resigned? Are they getting ready for her on a new story? Things have gone really quiet on her. WWE status, even though she's still on the roster page. They don't always remove people from the roster immediately. So she was not at raw. She wasn't at Smackdown, which, you know, it was in Toronto. She wasn't at Money in the Bank. She wasn't there. But I'm not ready to say that that means she is or isn't leaving or anything like that. Her deal was set to come up, but she also doesn't strike me as the type of person that makes hasty decisions or anything like that. To me, I feel like if she was gonna go to AEW, she probably would have done the Owen, like that would have been the thing that she did. But things are very quiet over there. Drew says, say his name and he appears, I assume NXT has some big plans for Hendry. That's what Corey Brennan reported on Fightful Select.com. He was featured at the end of the show, his face flashed up there, and he was featured on the NXT commercial tonight. We had a Gunther vignette. Of course, that's gonna kick ass. But damage control, defeated Katana, Caden, and Lyra Valcarilla. Afterwards, though, Sonya, Shayna, and Zoe lay out damage control. I'm so glad to see this trio. I'm glad to see them together. I'm glad to see Sonya getting physical again. They brought her back, you know, a little bit early, but now it seems like she's ready. She's missed, you know, a full year out of the ring. Denise, how are you feeling about all this from the result of damage control to this new faction? The match itself was fine. I think, you know, Caden and Katana, they're kind of always in the same place. So maybe this addition with Lyra Valcarilla can actually go somewhere. So we'll see. In regards to Sonya, Zoe, and Shayna, the one thing that I'm worried about, or not necessarily worried about, but the only complaint that I have is that they, when Sonya came back, it was teased, right? Like, they were gonna start, you know, she started going after them. She wanted to sort of, you know, take over as a whatever mentor, not mentor, but a manager, I guess, whatever she's gonna be to them. And that kind of started off and we were seeing it happen. And then we just didn't see them anymore. And I forgot, I forgot this entire storyline. And when they came out today, I thought, oh, oh, yeah, that happened like a few weeks ago. What's going on there? They've been popping up like in the background of other people's shots. Right. And I just didn't remember any of this. And I was like, okay, cool. I'm glad they're back. But now I actually want to see it on a weekly basis before I go out and forget again about them. Dream Ninja said, just caught up with raw after work, dig Sonya, Shayna, and Zoe together, but good Lord that Rhea Pop was insane. Oh, we'll be talking about it. Tony says, I like the trio of Zoe, Sonya, and Shayna makes me feel like they're using or turning damage control face and setting up war games. Now, I don't think they have any plans for those groups in more games in any capacity. Also, am I reading too much into things that Nadi wasn't there with the group Sonya was recruiting? No, I think she could be added if she ends up coming back. Sonya did talk to her. She's mentioned that she wanted to change. I would like to see her be a part of this group and see another, I mean, listen, I don't know when Oscar's coming back, but I would like to see damage control get a little freshen as well. Crazy 101 says off topic. Where do you see Stephanie Vicker going to CMLL? She's under contract. I think she's going to continue to work in AW. Yeah. And I think she's going to the bank to catch some paychecks because she's going to get paid at some point for sure. Kay 775 says Sean Little off topic, but since the Raw Women's Division is on the light side, you think Roxanne could go there after she drops the NXT women's title. I think she would be a good addition to damage control Denise. I think she would be really, really good. How would that work? She joins damage control. I know, but in what position I feel like the spots are kind of already taken there. There's someone that's doing something a little bit of everything there. They used to have Oscar and Bailey. They can fit a Roxanne Perez in with damage control. Oh, I think so, especially if Natalia joins the other group or Lando. Something Sean, what are you trying to tell us? You seem a little too confident here. What do you know? I never know anything. Oh, yeah. Orlando Orego says with John Cena retiring, what's an underrated match from his career? My mind is fatal four way with Randy Edge and Sean. Oh, like I know a lot of people talk about the money in the bank match with CM Punk, but the one on Raw from 2013 was incredible. The Royal Rumble match with AJ Styles was great. He had one against Cesaro that was just unreal. The Umaga match, last man standing, incredible. But I think the one, like if we talk about underrated and off forgotten, there was an episode of Raw. I want to say it was in the UK and the match went an hour or like it was like 56 minutes or something like that. It was so freaking good. They just put on an insane match on Raw in the UK. The same show that had like Molina beating Maria in a minute and great colleague beating Carlito in three minutes and all that stuff. Yeah. I think that's a great one, but any matches of his that stick out to you. Who are you asking? Sorry. Oh, I'm sorry. I was so confused. I was like, wait, what are we talking about? Oh my God. I was thinking about it. Why is the case? So for me, like, it's funny because I, um, the first thing that I'm thinking about right now for like the dumbest reason is I'm remembering those promos that John Cena used to cut on the big show. I don't know why that's the first thing that popped into my head right now. And it just made me laugh. But now I think you definitely named some great ones there. Even though I was sitting here going, wait, what are we talking about me. I'm okay. Carlito Finn and JD McDonough defeat Braun Strowman and awesome truth. So there was a fun spot where Braun drags our truth around to do his like run around the ring thing, but Carlito Finn and McDonough when this, this was a match that happened this existed. I don't even know what to say about this. What should I, I can, I know we're going to talk about the stuff in the back afterwards, but I'd rather wait until that because I don't got anything to say about there we go. So live is helping Dominic stretch and that I want to talk about. She is grabbing the leg and pushing forward and Dom's like, you know what, that actually is a really good stretch. I mean, it is a really good stretch. It does work. But Damian rolls around and then JD and Carlito and Finn poked their heads out and Carlito is like, that's not, oh wow, that's cool. And then Damien's like, man, what are you doing? It's, it's not that hard to get rid of her. And Carlito goes, I don't know, it looks pretty hard to me. This is the most interesting Carlito has been since he debuted or returned in Puerto Rico. He is pretty good comic relief here. Yeah, because I really, and I feel bad because I really wasn't digging what they had Carlito doing since he came back and I felt bad, but I was just completely, I was completely just interested in anything that they had Carlito in. But now my favorite things, which is not really that much, but I guess my favorite things are like what you said, him going in the back and just randomly going. Oh, that's cool. When he gets, when he gets a naughty picture on his phone and oh, that looks hard and we're all thinking exactly what, you know, they were trying to get us to think about. That's kind of been like the two best moments since Carlito's return, which is kind of sad, actually. Will Chisholm says Triple H and HBK calling back to their own stuff pops me down and live calling back to Triple H and Trish. Yeah, the old hammer lock reverse hammer lock reverse. Annie Brown's is the niece about to say it's Sean looks like Sean. Girl, you wish. I'm good. I like, I like my hair. Thanks. Oh, that's messed up. That's messed up, Sean. That's messed up. And Damian Damian gets a phone call. John Ross Sapp. Anyway, Damian gets a phone call and like, you know, it's coming now on Fightful Select.com. We had in our pre raw notes that Ria has been discussed for an upcoming return and that's what it was heavily implied. And he's like, yeah, I really do want to beat my dad. So okay. I loved it when he goes, you keep getting involved in these women's title matches and he goes, wasn't me. Just outright just like didn't do it wasn't me at all. And she's saying that she's doing it to help him beat his dad and she does. She knocks Rey Mysterio off the top of the post and Dominic gets his first win over Rey. Gabrielle says, Dom needs to use that blue chew, tell him to use the code Denise. No, use the code Fightful. No, use the code Denise. You get harder. It just works harder and it's juicy. Anyway, and we have leather parties. We don't. Oh boy, we don't necessarily. Yeah, code Denise. Don't necessarily need to talk about the match. Everybody's here to talk about what happened at the end. Dominic is is about to fold Denise. Dude, he had that twinkle in his eye, man. He was ready to be like, I love you. He had a lot more than that. He had a lot more than that. And people are like, what the hell is going on with Denise? Damn. I like that Denise. They're some nice comments in there, Sean. Why aren't you plastic? No, no, this is stupid. Anyway, Rhea Ripley shows up as Liv has her leg draft around Dominic and Dominic is about to fold. And Rhea just runs off Liv. Liv hits the bricks. Liv is like, Oh no. The ramifications and consequences of my actions are now here. Dom's in there working stiff. And all of a sudden Rhea shows up and gets in his face and he tries to hug her and we go off the air with her just walking away. K-775 says Rhea cleared to wrestle at SummerSlam. Don't know yet. Apex says, I think Dom is more valued by Liv than Rhea. Yes, but you got to wonder, is Liv using him? Is Liv using him? Because listen, at this point, was Rhea using Dom in the beginning? Probably. But at this point, she could find anybody on the roster and make them fold. So she's got to have some sort of feelings for Dominic within this character. How are you feeling about all this Denise? I'm torn. I got to tell you. What's next? At Moss Adams, that question inspires us to help people and their businesses strategically define and claim their future.

I have to be honest here, because Dominic looked like he was falling for Liv Morgan, and that moment, the intense eye contact, you know how many romantic comedies I've seen in my day, I've seen them all. And this is the look that he gets right before he falls. And so I was very interested. I hate this stuff. I hate love stories because they always suck me in. And so I'm watching this, and I'm very, very much paid attention because I'm thinking, "Oh, they're going to kiss. Oh, he's going to smile. He's going to hug her." I'm thinking, "This is going to be their big little happy moment where Dominic finally gives in to Liv Morgan." And so that's where my mind was going. And then all of a sudden, we hear Rhea's theme song, and I'm going, "Oh, he fucked up. He is every man, every woman that has ever cheated on their spouse. You fudged up. You're in the dog house. You looked at the waitress too long. You slept with another woman. I don't know." But he messed up. And that was great. Liv Morgan running away like a coward. That worked for her. But Dominic Mysterio, man, I think everybody kind of felt just a tiny, tiny little ounce of pity for him because you knew he was about to get it. He was about to get it. And let me tell you, by the way, if Rhea Ripley was Latina, Dominic would have been dead by the end of Raw. Like you would not be seeing that man standing up tall. He would have been dead, done, and Liv Morgan's head would have been hanging on some stick. So if you watched on TNT Sports with Nord VPN, Rhea did leave the ring. Dominic tried to apologize. Rhea wasn't having any of it. Liv was laughing in the distance. Getting your super chats, getting your humper chats. We are heading down the home stretch. As Ryan Sully says, WWE posted a video of Liv watching from the ring after Raw, then as a smirk on her face was the plan all along me thinks who else was in on it. Finn, that's the question. Who was in on it? Who helped make this happen? Who is Liv really in cahoots with? Who is she actually dealing with in that sense, man? Bad robot. If you sent a super chat, Luis will find it that much. I promise you, or I will myself, but A steal says Dom and what if Dom and Rhea are on the same page all along and do live at Summerslam to an enormous pop and win back the world title. That's what I was about to bring up right now that I feel that that's definitely a possibility because he fell for her. Shawn, I just said I've watched so many romantic comedies. He had the look on his face. She won him over with stretches, chicken nuggets and video games. Yes. Yes. Yeah. Luis did forget to put this in there. So happy eight years. Fightful found you both since QuizzleMania been a fan ever since FTF. I don't love Priest telling Seth he can challenge again. Now punk is off the hook. Special guest ref Seth. I disagree. Punk is not off the hook. Punk proved himself to be everything that Seth Rollins feared and said that he was. And just because Seth can challenge again doesn't mean that that fixes what happened. Seth could have still won that match. It was it was not a foregone conclusion or anything like that. I think that priest let Seth off the hook or pre selling Seth again challenge again was because of the three count. I think that's his way of doing that. Vanessa Vasquez says, what's up Sean and Denise? Love the fever shirt. Sean. Go Indian fever. So stoked that Rhea is back. I've missed her. Me too. Me too. I'm glad to see you back in the chat Vanessa. What you know, Mr. Dom. No, I think maybe maybe still Mr. Cadillac Carson says the way Raw ended was an excellent cliffhanger to get you to tune into next week. Hell yeah it was. I can't wait to see what happens. Apex caliber says, I think Dom helps live retain at summer slam against Rhea. That's a good thing because I mean I like I don't know if it's going to be live or Rhea and there's the big swerve there. Gabriel says Denise, what would you do if you were Rhea? Kill him. There's no other option. Kill him. He'd be dead. There's no other options here. She'd be dead too. They all be dead. I don't think you understand, Sean, if this ever happened to me in my love life, let's just say you would be talking in my documentary talking about how I got arrested for murder and you would be in my Netflix documentary. That's what I would say. I knew it. I knew it all along. Honestly, just know it. All right, Sean, I would be in jail. All right, and I'd have a documentary. Adam says Rhea finally getting her come up. It's that would be perfect at summer slam with Dom and live making out over her as she loses. Yeah, I mean, I thought that we were going to see judgment day split because, listen, it's sort of run its course now. Yeah. Well, now things change now that Rhea is back. She's got to put things back in order and she's going to be like, oh, so I remember seeing you guys play with Liv Morgan playing her little video games in her little chicken nuggets. Yana says Liv gets her two flowers emojis keeping the hype of Rhea for you to live. I see Liv retaining first match when Dom betrays Leah, or Rhea, her winning the belt back instantly would invalidate everything Liv and Dom got Aura in my opinion. Yeah, and the thing is, Yana, I agree with you. They haven't built anybody else in her absence in a singles capacity. Well, I wrote briefly, but Becky was champ and Liv is champ and other than that they haven't really built anybody. Nicholas says Liv versus Rhea right now as a PLE main event with the story, but there's so many good stories. I don't think they get that chance to main event. Yeah, I don't, I think it could be, I think it could be, but it's not going to be. Any update on Raquel. Unfortunately, they thought she was in the clear and then elimination chamber weekend she had a flare up of her condition again has been sidelined. It makes it very difficult to work out. Guys, please leave a thumbs up on this video. We've got a few more super chats and humper chats. Send us a nice review on Apple Spotify, all that good stuff. Papakasa says with Rhea back when she fights live for the belt I see Dom pairing with Liv and costing Rhea the match. What do you think will happen? Much love guys. I think it's going to be Liv. I could see them doing the ultimate swerve and Dom's been using Liv the whole time to get the titles back into Judgment Day and all that, but I think it's going to be pushing her away. You know, maybe just maybe just 40 chests there, Denise, because whatever he was doing was working. Reverse psychology may letting her think that she was manipulating him. Drew says nothing is 100% certain, but I'm assuming Jordan is WWE in 2025. If she is, would you rather Rhea versus Jordan or Rhea versus Bianca may have been a mania, Rhea versus Bianca at first, but Rhea versus Jordan after Jordan gets established, and then Jordan versus Bianca down the line as well, or a triple threat between all three of them. Or all of that, everything that you just mentioned. Yeah, but I mean Bianca and Rhea is a main event in the future. So I had slipped us in on the Fightful Select Backstage Report podcast, but she had mentioned today her contracts up in January. She had her contract amended. It was supposed to be up next summer, but her deal was amended and less time on that deal. Jordan Grace, yeah, FightfulSelect.com reported. Apple Jam Treebeard wraps this up and says, "As much as Seth should blame Punk for costing him the Drew Matt, or Drew needs to be blamed more, not only did he cash in on Seth's match, but he's the one who was pinned and brought the Punk problem." Yeah, but Punk inserted himself into all that. He can already dislike Drew McIntyre, but Drew wasn't there for Seth to be annoyed by. And also, Seth is not going to be mad at a man cashing in money in the bank to make it a triple threat match. He's done it. He knows the game. Everybody involved in this situation, CM Punk, Damian Priest, Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins, they understand the game of money in the bank and how to capitalize on that. They can't hate the game because they have all benefited from the game in the past. It's all about the game and how you play it. Guys, please leave a thumbs up on this video. We would greatly appreciate that. We got thousands of you watching. I would love to get that to 400,000 thumbs up. Denise, tell us where they can find what you're doing.
