Special Edition WWE Elimination Chamber 2019

Oh, yeah, for posterity sake, it is 601 on the east coast. It is 301 on the west coast. It is the 17th of February in the year of our Lord, 2019.

It is season nine, episode 30, 477 times. This voice has welcomed you to the clubhouse podcast. We're normally live every Sunday night, 17th, string four, Pacific at the vocal now studios, V-O-K-A-L now dot com book market, download the vocal now apps.

You can take us with you wherever you go. But it is pay-per-view Sunday. So we are on location at our secondary.

Actually, this would be our tertiary studio, I think. Welcome. My name is Rob.

I am the executive producer of the clubhouse podcast. And we've now been doing these things. Let me do the math.

Eight years worth the pay-per-views now, because this was, well, no, even technically more than that. But this is really the beginning of the monthlies, because we did summer slam right out of the gate, but we didn't do another one again until the following of slomination chamber. Not a huge day is today.

Got a lot of people on assignment, but we've got their picks. So let's go around the days as we go clockwise around the table. We start with the man who has to present the belt to somebody.

If they show up, it may happen off air. I don't know. He is Alex.

Welcome, sir. Neon, Joe. And also I was surprised during the show.

I was waiting for you to call this the Faza land studio. No, I will not say that. You're on a muted night.

Next to him is the official fact checker of this show. And a man who cannot trip over anything today, we have, we have Don proof to the room. I think you just do as you as you may know, oh, I'm jinxed him.

I ain't jinxed in me. You may know him as Iqbunu, but his mom and even Don Ford. I'm going to call him Don Ford.

What's up? Got him. First off, speaking of my mama, it's my step mama's barber's birthday.

I saw that today. Happy birthday, Barbara. And you said this is the drink, something, a whole year.

What does that mean? You primary is your first secondary is your second tertiary is your third. I never heard of that.

Mm-hmm. Sure sure. It's like a plant.

Don't worry. It's your terrestrial studio. No, it's, I learned that from working in the insurance industry.

He's like me for Montana. I think it's a plant or something. Rounding out the day is, is the man who owns the doma style that we are currently broadcasting from.

It's hard to believe. He and I have known each other almost a quarter of a century. He is Doc.

Welcome, sir. Hello, my leapsions. Oh, let's go out.

Welcome to the opa dome. That mean a lot of people drive other people into here. Hell yeah.

Okay. So it is a limitation chamber day for those of you that don't know, we call it that. This was the first paper view we ever did on location.

Just shortly after we met Don, we knew Don before there was a show, but he, we just didn't know each other. Yeah. We were in the same place a lot, but we didn't know each other.

Fox in the hand. No, even before that was the wing house and Pugsley's before that. Yeah.

You were always down there in the pit, though. Okay. At Pugsley's.

We were always at the bar. Yeah, you were better than me. No, we just had better seats.

Yes, we got there early. We had to sit down there in the pit. I didn't care sitting down in the pit.

I liked it in the pit. Oh, we love sitting at the bar just because we knew the bartenders and they always made fun of Chad. They called him sleeves because he always showed up in sleeveless shirts all the time.

Sleeves. Oh, it was bra, he hated it so much, but it was so fun. I'm going to remind you right around and you guys always, you guys always missed the matches that the bartenders would have behind the bar where they were jumping off of coolers on duty.

I missed that place. All right. So sort of the cockroaches a couple of updates and corrections from last week, Alex, it's Zion Williamson.

You said Williams twice. Right. No, I tried to correct myself.

And you still twice. Yes, you failed twice. Jamie Hart did go into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005, Brett went in in 2006.

And Fire and Desire was in 1981. I did look that one up. So let's talk about the rumble.

That was a quick call. What do you show me? I had actually done the research on that one in case you hadn't.

Oh, yeah. I have every good one. Well, I actually listened to last week's show today.

So this man has been a heck of a week. So let's look at who did what? I thought I was going to wind up with the toilet.

It was so close, but I want to thank Russ for saving me on that. Was it just Russ or was it both of them? No, just Russ.

Remember, they picked they picked differently. Let's see. Oh, I know, but they both had minus 30 on the rumble.

Russ beat Greg by two. And Greg beat you by one. Greg beat no.

No, I actually wound up. It's because they both picked the rock and the lias who are both minus. But I had Seth Rollins.

So they wound up at minus 56 and minus 57, I'm sorry, minus 57 and minus 58 respectively. That is Greg and Russ. I was at minus 14, so that saved me.

So Seth brought you up a bit. Yeah, I mean, it came down to the rumble, which is why I like the new format. I do like the new one because it can come down to the main events as it did.

That's so Alex, not so hot. You were at plus eight, though, still not so hot because the big kicker is I should be in the 30s, but I turtleed at the end. Doc was tied with me at minus 14, generalment minus 27, let's see here, LA at minus two, Andrew at plus 11, Chad at plus nine, Don, you were plus eight, but not and I tied, but winning was like even, even was plus 23.

Well, that's because he had the only he's the only one that had the winning women's rumble. Right, but it was only three points because Becky Lynch, but we did replace the rock, but we did, but it's the minus. If you go off of the Charlotte, I already did the math on this, I would be 21 points more.

Yeah, because of that. So what I, and that's part of the reason I like that we've gone to these new rules is absolutely. You know, people would be at this point so far out of it that couldn't, they were almost back in it.

But now everybody's technically in it every month because, you mean they would have been docked? Yes. Okay.

Yeah, there you go. Doc, Doc avoided the free fall in the last couple of the paper you think's to Don and Chad not sending picks for the month. Right.

You're welcome. But technically, the, the clock resets, it does for this because cumulative score only comes down in a tie at the end of the year. So, uh, which is a possibility, but it's going to take something's happening.

So let's, and I just want to make sure to put this, even maybe here later, if he is, we'll present him in. I just, I just want to put this on air though. The paper champion hasn't shown up.

Well, he's going to be, he said he might be here about 630. So. All right.

So let's talk about that week that was first of all in memoriam for Pedro Morales. Yes. Who passed away this week at, I believe, 76 years old, legend in the business.

Absolutely. We, there's nothing we can say that hasn't already been said multiple times. WWE, great job.

Oh, all you need to know is that from 71 through 73, he was the champ. That's it. Yeah.

When, when that didn't really happen as much, right, unless you're a Ric Flair, uh, Houston will be hosting the 2020 rumble. Did they learn nothing at minute made park? Did they learn nothing?

I guess not. Why? What's, oh, that's a baseball park, that's the Phoenix on the TV right now.

She's kind of a darker color palette and her makeup looks pretty good. And I have another question for that. Are they leaning more towards baseball stadiums because of who's running the competition now?

Could be real fast, uh, just to verify Pedro Morales was 76. I believe that's what I said, okay, okay, you made me rethink what I was saying. He just provided that's his job.

That is his job and he does his job well, which is why we love having done around. So, uh, but WWE is giving away, was it 24 packs of tickets to the 2020 rumble? If you follow them on either Twitter or Instagram and you do a post with a hashtag, rumble 2020 and hashtag sweepstakes.

Interesting. So they're giving away almost a hundred tickets to this thing. So the rumble, so maybe they did learn something, Houston Houston, yes, and then where's the mania going to be?

They haven't said. Oh, okay. This year's at MetLife Stadium, but they have, they won't mention next year's mania until probably the weekend of, right?

Yeah. It'll probably be part of access as the real world. So are you smarter than a fifth grader is coming back to be hosted by one, Shana.

Allegedly. Oh, Lord, no, that's going to happen. And I like that show.

Notice how you say word white. I will never understand that. Is that because of your education level?

Is somebody calling you down? My mom. I'll call after her.

Allegedly, Batista looking to do a match at WrestleMania 35. Allegedly. And which one's that just coming up or the next one?

Yes, that's the one coming up. Okay, this is the 35th WrestleMania, but not the 35th anniversary because we don't want to go down that road again. That'll be next year.

We did find out this week that when Ambrose's contract expires, he does not have a knock, no compete. Correct. So he could show up the next day somewhere else anywhere.

Yeah. I think he's going to be an AEW. That's a possibility for them.

Let's talk some raw notes. So I guess the new tag team rules don't apply in the women's division. It depends on the writing because there was a whole lot of interference going on, which would have been a DQ under the new rules.

Oh, yeah. I'm just saying, Elias's intro doesn't feel the same without JoJo doing it. No.

But I did think it was hilarious as he'd start and then they cut to a different segment and they did that three times. Because the first time I was like, oh, somebody botched it. The first time I was like, oh, somebody's botched the script and then it happened just a second time.

And then by the time I had the third time, I'm like, I just want this to keep happening for the rest of the raw. This is one of those 15 minute segments that they can actually keep going on. And he did get through a whole song this week, though, Don, you mentioned that last week.

He got through a whole song this week. I will say, I listened to Cornette's podcast and he actually doesn't keep up too much with the new stuff, but he watched this last raw. And he broke it down thing by thing by thing and what they're doing wrong and right.

So that was about a nine hour podcast. No, it was right. It was it was it was it levels of Cornette hate because there was nothing for him that he would know.

You said this and that, but he like ripped it because it's like, hi, we're here. It's like, oh, who are you? If you're somebody new, who's Renee?

They didn't say you're Renee till half hour in. I mean, it was interesting. Listen is you always say that like reading a book is a good read.

That wasn't interesting. Listen to hear an old timer say, this is how it's kind of business taking stuff for granted a lot. Oh, yeah.

He's been doing that for years, but it looks like it is the same elimination chamber from last year, sir. So I don't want to believe you were correct on that. No, it's it's got the logo on the top, but it's mesh.

And by the way, apparently somebody got injured today putting the chamber together. Oh, really? They were doing they were streaming something earlier today and I know they were streaming it yesterday.

Maybe it was yesterday, but they heard in the background, somebody dropped a cuss and a female worker screaming for medical help. For medical help. They said that the person was injured, but they're going to be okay.

Good. And that was while they were assembling the chamber. It's a work.

And then was it a diabolical injury? Not that's a much. Because there wasn't an offense in the background looking like a mystery.

The surgery is real fast. Is Sasha still on injury reserve? No, I have not heard.

No, no, she's been cleared. She's cleared. Okay.

Yeah. She was cleared on Tuesday. Because when Bailey did that, when by herself, she was not clear, but they made that little script.

Well, they they called her as a partial clear, which is why she was able to do the spot up against the railing. Yeah. But then she was full clear Tuesday.

Looks like the bar getting interviewed by coach on the pre show. I do want to say one thing that bug me is they said the Becky event at Russell mania. They'll be the greatest of Russell.

Maybe a bit of a half time. I'm like, no, but they do that every year, so I know. So I know it's I want to go to the quote unquote impromptu tag match, which we all saw coming before a break.

Yeah. I know it's impressive, but isn't calling bronze finisher a running power slam over selling it a little bit depends. Sometimes it is running.

Sometimes it's not more of a brisk walk power slam, which doesn't sound impressive. But let's call it for what I still feel like he should have a better one. Like he should have gotten the rowing, uh, claw slam first.

And I have also determined that KO is going to be the new Jericho. He learned he's going to be the one to save the company. Yes.

If you watch that video, he poured out on Monday night, what is he coming back, uh, within the next month, he said, yeah, but I will say that I have a theory on that one to bronze thing, the running power slam. He's a big guy. He is.

I have the run, the space to get a good run and go. He'd have to be clear against the turnbuckle and go across to get a good run in versus people who are smaller in size who could actually do the run in the power slam. I'm just being honest.

I'm being fair. Yeah. How do we think about it?

But they're not going to call it anything else. Uh, you know, I heard a rumor and I don't know if this is true. But I heard a rumor that Seth Rollins took six F five.

Is that true? I thought it was five, but six, I guess it was the correct. He said that about 140 times in that.

Oh, no, no, I understand that, but I don't remember a sixth. I remember him taking five at least. It's like, Seth, yeah, you took the six X five.

We get it. Let's move on. Yeah.

Uh, and can we back off? You guys know how uncomfortable it makes me when we do angles of people and their real life spouses. Mm hmm.

And Cory started, Cory's got his own issues to deal with. Yeah, that's true. Uh, when he started talking about Renee hanging out with EC three so much, let's just stop that now for real.

And I spent, well, when you think about it in hindsight of anybody to have brought it up, his character, yes, to bring it up. What he's dealing with. Probably that was back before all this came out, but that's what I mean in hindsight.

If you want to know, we're talking about Google in it, because we're not going to talk about that on the show, uh, the revival or tag champs. Did you see their tweet today? We've had a few of them complain long enough and your dreams come true.

That was yesterday. But no, did you see the one that they did a dash put out the day before? No, I did not.

With the classic. Oh, yeah. That was like, that was okay.

I'm not sure it's enough to keep them long term, but it's way overdue. Yes. You know, I've been lobbying this for months.

And apparently the term all around the world is now code for promotions we don't want to mention. Right. Yeah.

Uh, double or nothing sells out in 25 minutes and then six minutes for put, put a pin in that allegedly because that's going to be POI in two weeks because next week is going to be our Oscar show. We're going to be Oscars heavy next week. So, yeah, get ready for that POI because it's going to be good.

I'll be sure and wear my pink tuxedo. I will do my best not to say things that rhyme with duck. Yeah.

Uh, the Undertaker conundrum, oh, there's a show on what happened last night. If you are at a WWE live, the Alexandria, Becky Lynch showed up to interfere in Charlottes Match and then Charlotte allegedly injured the knee for did you did you watch the full video though? I'm watching it right now.

And Charlotte grabbed a kendo stick and was attacking Oscar Becky's house into makes the save and then you wind up with the old school flare chop block on the injured knee. Yep. And that's what they're doing right now.

And she's going to hit her with a chair. I love how we just happen to have cameras available. Yeah.

Uh, so the Undertaker has removed all mentions of WWE from his social media because charging $25,000 an hour for appearances. And now has been announced as part of Starcast 2 in Vegas, the weekend of double or nothing as a guest, which people are now, but people are saying he's still under contract. So I think he still has a legend to you.

But there's also the aspect. Everybody's like, oh, this is just Conrad's gift to us because everybody likes Conrad. Maybe maybe take your list for Mania and I'm not complaining.

Not at all. And any Edwards has signed a long term deal with impact. So quote, quote, quote, long term good luck with all that today, big day on the network.

One of my favorite shows is now featured on the network, WWE confidential now available on the network. For those of you that don't know, this was a show that USA did for about a year, year and a half, where it was a lot of behind the scenes stuff. This is where they did a piece on the hearties and they showed all of their old year when they were high voltage.

And the biggest thing that came out of this show was in the very first episode. They did a two part interview with Sean Michaels. And it was at the end of the first part of this interview where they asked Sean if he knew about the screwdriver and it was the first time he admitted that he did.

That was where we really found out for the first time. Yeah. Don Yoke, everything?

Yeah. And I'm just thinking about the screwdriver. I remember watching that and when the bell was rained, you're just seeing the HBK's look on his face.

He's like, what an ex-go on on. He's a good actor. He sold it.

Yeah. For a while, I thought maybe he did not know. Everybody thought I did.

Yeah. Because of his reaction. But this was the first admit on WWE confidential.

This was the first admission of that. And then he also talked about it in his book later on. I will.

I think he admitted it in some type of interview, like four or five years previous to this. It was on Raw War. Yes.

WWE confidential was the first time he admitted it publicly and that was an interview. No, no. The show he's talking about was from.

Oh. I thought Jimmy. Oh, this is an old USA show.

I thought you meant this was a recent. Okay. No, I bet.

Now we talk about the Jimmy Usso incidents. Uh-huh. On August Wednesday night, they're in Detroit.

You know, Chris Rock has a video about this. Oh, don't you? Yes.

Naomi was driving the wrong way down a one way street. They get pulled over by the police. They smell alcohol in the car, ask Naomi to get out of the car.

Jimmy decides he's going to get shirtless and bow up on one of the cops who let him know he had a taser on him. Now it's coming. Reports are coming out saying that they're both trying to get fired from the company.

Allegedly. Why did he take his shirt off? Because he was drunk.

Have you met us on Owen? Well, true. And he got a public in talks for it.

Yes. What about Naomi? She was sober.

I don't think she got anything. No, she didn't. She got a warning.

Why are they trying to get fired from the company? So they can go to all elite. Oh, okay.

All elite who have been consistent in their tag teams are an important part of the show just because Vince hates them. Doesn't mean we do. And I would think they'd be.

They would be a heck of an asset for them. Absolutely. Uh, Shane McMahon, we found out this week will be appearing on NCIS Los Angeles on March 31st.

That's the air date for that episode. As a body. Is he going to play a body?

I'm sure they all play a body, sir. Jesse, the body should play the body. Oh, it's true.

That's true. That's true. The company right now, not sure who Oscar's going to face at WrestleMania.

I still stand that this is now going to be a four corners match and we're going to unify those titles. And I disagree thinking that Becky's going to wind up with the Daniel Bryan facing Oscar to open the show and then be added to the triple threat later to unify. Well, if they unify the women, they should unify the men.

Well, I think this is, I think this is crawling before we run. I think this is especially with them unifying just a one set of tag belts. I think this is them sticking their toe in the water to see if this actually works.

Because they've had the one champ on two shows before, like with Tristratus, Trampion, all that. And the thing is if you're, they've been building the women, you look at how much airtime women took in the last ride itself, which is incredible compared to 10 years ago or even five years ago. Well, because their product is better.

But I'm just saying though, but they begin the chance blah, blah, blah. But now they're going to take a step back. I don't think they would unify.

I think that'd be a step back. I could see getting rid of the tag. Take the only one.

But the only support for your argument I would give is the Fox deal. Do you also want me to jump that a little bit? Go ahead.

You unify the top title and then introduce two subtitles like your US and Intercontinental. Or one. No, no, no, one on each show.

Yeah, as we say, it's one for each show. And then you have one champion, which I'm okay with. And this should do that with the mood.

I'm sorry. And I'm right there with you. Jack Swagger, known as Jack Hager, now has his next Bellator fight on the books for May 11th.

Go get him. So good on him. I think he's always trying to get the name.

He is. Smackdown live notes. Did Charlotte have the mole removed?

I think she did. Or she had a lot of me. I couldn't.

I couldn't see it. And I love that watch. She was wearing.

Yes. I don't know what that watch distracted me the entire time. Because that was a good looking watch.

That's what distracts you about Charlotte allegedly. I'm going to say this now. Mustafa Ali for US champ.

Absolutely. I'm saying it now. The new Usos shirt just makes you want to program with them in the briskos that much more.

That's true. What do you mean program put them in a match together? And having to do a whole angle together.

I don't care how it happened. Do a story. Yeah.

The briskos. I want to. I want an Usos briskos program.

Where are the briskos now? They're in ROH. But these guys are WWE.

But unless they get. Are they out? I mean, they use Usos out of the WWE.

I mean, I know you said they're trying to get fired. But what's their contractor? What's that?

I don't know. Okay. But I'm fantasy booking here.

Oh, okay. Fantasy. Okay.

Okay. Let's see. I do want to quote.

I want to say it was Jay said this. Nobody's talking. Because remember, they were doing the tag team game.

And Miss said, what's my favorite food? And he whispered in Shane's ear and Shane said, Keesh. Keesh.

Yeah. Yeah. And he said, Maurice makes a great Keesh.

And one of the Usos says nobody's talking about Maurice. And nobody's talking about my daddy, Keesh. Yeah.

And I went. Nicely done, sir. My wife was actually watching with me.

And she's like, I don't care. I got honey for Keesh. They're dead.

She's like, oh, I see what they did there. And is there such a thing as an unhustled Samoa Joe? Because I was like, it's a fresh hostile Samoa Joe.

I'm like, he's never not hostile. That's fantastically hostile. That's his bit.

Because I wasn't in bed, I mean, he was really nice. Okay. There's one unhustled Samoa Joe.

I'll bet he was a really nice, nice guy when I met him. Unless I was calling you literal dog. Okay.

Well, I did run into Dave today and let him know that from henceforth, he will be known as Dave. Good. He did not know why.

So I do his point. Yeah. I think you guys see the commercial with Michael Bubley and the Super Bowl.

Excuse me. That's Michael Bubley. Yeah.

And then the guy came up and he said, thank you, Dave. I'm calling Dave Dave from this point forward until further notice. You are listening to the Clubhouse podcast.

We will back back in studio for two weeks. And then the next pay for using three weeks, gentlemen, which I have every confidence. It'll be an April.

We will be back in the home studio. Oh, cool. I'm I'm I'm I am 98% sure we're going to have the bathroom up and running this week.

I also want to backtrack real quick. The Usos contract runs out in April. Really.

Same is AJ Styles. Deamers stop trying to get fired, and just wait for it to run. They're trying to get him to stop asking him to resign.

But what about no competes? No worry. If it's structured by like Dean, there isn't one right.

It's when that contract ends it ends. Cause you're not legally bound anymore. Cause the other part is I wonder if they're trying to get suspended so they don't have to put anybody over like Mick Miz.

So next week we're going to be Oscars heavy. Because we're doing our Oscar picks. A gentleman get ready for that.

And then the following week we'll have our abnormal show and then the week after that will be fast lane And then we're three weeks from Mania at that point Time flies Mania's on my mom's birthday this year April 7th. Well early happy birthday tour. So, yeah, it's gonna be it's good We're gonna we always have a good time at the paper use and then we'll be the long haul Plus we possibly have something in Frisco possibly.

Yeah, I need to make a full call on that this week Make sure we're good for that. Plus there's some festivals coming in in April. It's almost festival season, sir As we as we march towards season 10.

Yep, we're already halfway through season 9 if you guys can believe it All right, so let's run the card We'll notice there's a lot of voices missing tonight, but I have every but for the first time in forever I have everybody who's not in the room and one person who is his picks That is true. There we go. So what we're gonna do Everybody's already done.

They're actually hold on Don Because I need Don to make a pick real quick because everybody has pre show pre show match Cruiserweight title on the line Buddy Murphy versus Akira to Zawa, buddy By pin fall Damn, I thought he was gonna forget that Oh, sorry All right, so we've got everybody's pre the cruiserweight pre show matches Let me just go for posterity. Oh, I gotta do mine. Yeah, we got everybody, but I'm saying the same thing Buddy Murphy via pin fall because it's not time to put it on Akira to Zawa yet But Chad said Akira to Zawa.

I don't want the way he said it was weird Don says buddy Murphy via pin fall Andrew says buddy Murphy Andrew sent me his picks as pictures of the wrestlers God give except for one match where he did a bonus part of the pick. Okay. Let's see Andrew said buddy Murphy L.A.

said buddy Murphy via pin fall. Let me just pick clear this month L.A. came to play just so you gentlemen know But he's not he's not here tonight because he is Semi professional comedies Let's see Steven said buddy Murphy Doc said buddy Murphy Jen Roam said Akira to Zawa Alex said buddy Murphy via pin fall Greg and Russ both said buddy Murphy Greg and Russ's picks will be the same Because Greg texted me last night said he wasn't gonna make it and he's just gonna pick whatever Russ picks Oh, wow, okay, so we could have a co-holder of the toilet or a co-holder of the belt We don't know.

I like how you said it in that order. That's kind of like the opposite of Doc and L.A. when Doc says just pick opposite of L.A.

And why much and why cuz I hate him so very very very much All right, so let's go through it. No DQ match Can we please read the L.A.? I'll get there.

We'll get there. No DQ match Braun Strowman versus Baron Corbin now Chad says Braun Strowman Andrew says Braun Strowman Steven says Braun Strowman Doc says Braun Strowman Jen Roam says Braun Strowman Greg and Russ both pick Baron Corbin L.A. has picked Baron Corbin via DQ In a non-discqualification match.

Good luck. Wait, so he's already he could be down three women. He paid out of the gate L L L.A.

picked Baron Corbin via DQ in a non-discqualification match and I have the text to prove it That does not surprise me in the least and I was just not a very detailed I was not going to correct him because he obviously had to look up the card somewhere to send me the picks And so he does not get credit. That's a semi-pro move. All right, so since We don't have our belt holder here.

We're just going to do it like we normally do it. So Alex, where do you? Uh, I really want to take Corbin getting the the wind back from the reverse So because McIntyre is not booked anywhere else.

I'm going to take Corbin All right done. I'm going to pick uh Braun Strowman by pinfall All right Are you sure you don't want it by DQ? Let me think.

Oh wait a minute. I just realized something L.A. Put picked the heel to win by DQ That's the way normally work.

No, no, no, no, no. Braun would win if Baron did the DQ So he's completely awesome. Braun Strowman straight up.

Yeah I am also going to say Strowman via pinfall just because this might be my one pick that goes against the grain You see why I go against L.A. Yeah, so I mean it makes sense my logic is like I hate that I'm agreeing with L.A. Russ and Greg But at least it's out of the way now.

Yeah intercontinental title on the line in a handicap match Bobby Lashley and Leo rush versus Finn Baller Chad says Finn Baller Andrew says Bobby Lashley L.A. Says Bobby Lashley via disqualification Told you he's he's going for it this month Uh, let's see Steven says Finn Baller Doc says Finn Baller Gen Rome says Bobby Lashley Greg and Russ both say Finn Baller Don. Who's the champ right now?

Bobby Lashley. Uh What the heck I'm going to say Finn Baller Now I will tell you done. Yeah, whenever we do title matches I will always name the champion first.

Okay. All right, so that's just we've never and you and it's a good point I've never physically said that on the show. That's a fair one.

I will always name the champion first. Okay Doc You already made your pick. Well, yeah, I'll say it again a Finn Baller.

You said Finn Baller Alex Leo rush But I'm going to take the team of Lashley and Leo rush because this will be oh Baller It couldn't overcome the numbers game, but he put on a good showing and then he gets the belt at Mania That's only that one point. That's why I'm only picking a side. I'm not picking a but if you want me to go in depth I'm only Rob for the sake of it.

I'm only I'm only taking that side But I do think that you either have Leo rush No, we originally we were going to do it that way, but we decided not to I'm saying that Finn Baller wins via pinfall on Leo rush So this starts that program See, and I feel like the other program is going to be Finn Baller after Mania going off with somebody else And Leo rush basically getting smashed where his original tag team partner when they discovered him comes in for the save That would be who that would be the velvet team dream But I just everything I'm reading Everything I'm looking through that this is going to be It's this is what's leading to a Finn Leo program I'm not interested in that so and he also gets the win back after Leo rush pinned him That's a bell smack down live tag team titles on the line The Miz and Shane McMahon versus the Usos Let's see Chad says Usos Andrew says Mick Miz L.A. Says Mick Miz via pinfall I got to tell you he's either going to have the belt or the toilet in this thing Steven says Mick Miz Doc says Mick Miz Well, yeah, that's because of all the other says Mick Miz Reagan Russ both say Mick Miz Alex, we're back to you Really, we're not going to make Doc go first I've just said what Doc's picks one Yeah, but he was saying it for posterior Yeah, but then he out but he then he's okay Okay, okay, okay, okay, yeah, cuz they need to go to Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay You didn't realize this is almost exactly a year from Jimmy's arrest Or really Jay's arrest didn't know that they wound up where they may have flipped it So I'm going to say Mick Miz by pinfall All right, Don Unfortunately, I'm going to copy what he just said Mick Miz by pinfall I'm saying the same thing. I think the arrest changed the booking I don't think it changed the booking, but I think this I think this was originally set to be a revival situation And I think they the arrest and looks like your pre-show match is about to get underway Uh, I think the arrest changed the booking It's a possibility because The backlash no pun intended would be insane All right, Raw Women's Championship, Ronda Rousey versus Ruby Riot Chad says Ronda via DQ Really Andrew says Ronda via submission LA says Ronda via submission Steven says Ronda straight up Doc Ronda straight up Genroan Ruby Riot oh wow Greg and Russ of course both say Ronda Ronda Rousey via submission Don we're back to you.

I'm gonna do a couple of things on this one. Oh, here we go Ronda Rousey Buy submission in with Charlotte being at ringside shenanigans Wait, so Charlotte wouldn't be shenanigans Oh, she would because she's not normally part of their of her matches interesting. Yeah See, I thought it was part of the program.

No, I mean normally part of like she doesn't come to the ring every time Ronda has a minute. Okay, I understand and that's an eight point risk for Doc. Yep Kind of like hell like and I will take the three point version Okay, so just Ronda by submission Or do we keep getting that ugly ugly piper's pit thing?

I feel bad for Rody and the two of his family. I'm gonna say the following I agree with Don 100% there's no I'm fully on board with Don at an eight point risk here So because there's no way Charlotte doesn't get involved So she doesn't hold on I haven't finished my pick yet. Okay, you pick the shenanigans.

I know I'm keeping shenanigans Well, I'm the part I'm wondering about and like with you what threw me off was I feel like the shenanigans would be you mean Charlotte gets involved to prevent ruby riot from winning I'm saying ruby riot wins via pinfall because of shenanigans because I've been saying for two Yours makes sense. I'm sure it makes sense to his but he but it could be what and I see where Don's going with it Charlotte could cost ruby riot to keep the belt on Rondo so she gets the way she gets some That's what I'm saying. I'm saying it's the other way around I'm saying where I'm thinking where she gets involved but then Ronda comes out ahead even though she tries to stop Ronda I'm saying it's ruby riot via pinfall because of shenanigans at the rest of the show.

So you're just saying that she gets involved It doesn't actually affect the match. Well, no she'll get involved But but Ron is able to overcome it. Yeah, that's what I'm yeah, that's what I'm that's exactly what I'm saying That's my thinking.

Yeah, because this is going to affect my next pick too I feel it because in his time to crown for the first time since 1989 Raw Women's tag team champions here actually no just tag team champions. I even Ross Ron smack down Here is your participants Nia Jackson, Samina versus the riot squad versus firing desire versus the iconics versus the boss and hug connection versus Naomi and Carmella now we know that firing desire and The boss and hug connection Have the disadvantage. Do they get that right?

That is correct So they are the first two to compete that is still correct So Chad says boss and hug connection and this is a six point risk Both chamber matches are a six point risk because of the number of teams or individuals in the match Andrew says the boss and hug connection LA says the iconics via pinfall that's a nine point risk Then you have boss and hug connection for Steven. Doc says the riot squad. Mm-hmm Generome says Nia and Samina That's a possibility as do Russ and Greg both so Alex we're back to you I kind of want to make you pick first because I know where you're going with this and I'm doing something different You can't don's left so I will say boss and hug connection there They're gonna tell the underdog story I was debating between them and Naomi and Carmella and because Things and life happen.

It's not going to be the fabulous glow. So boss and hug Unfortunately, I think it's gonna be the boss and hug my mind is saying I'd like to see their right do their bit But I'm gonna say the boss and hug just no No, nothing else. No like pinfall or anything just boss and so your mind's telling you know No, my heart say your boss.

You know he's quoting our Kelly. Oh Yeah, I'm not as per my prediction in the raw women's title match I am taking the riot squad via pinfall and then all three of them have the belts Rob's trying to also challenge L.A. for the possible toilet or belt I'd give him credit they're going out on a limb I don't know doc you haven't made a pick in like three rounds because you already did it You're just sitting there nodding well I thought I was gonna get to vocalize if he's going ahead and read it I know he is.

I'm just like okay. I'm giving doc's hosting tonight. So I'm giving him some relaxed time.

That's okay. I'm cool, man I mean, I did say now I did do some pre-gaming with some Floyd earlier. So I'm pretty cool So now it's not the main event but Because I think the women's tag titles will be the main event that was oh, okay, we got one more chamber to talk about But that's what I thought I was for the WWE title The new Daniel Bryan versus AJ Styles versus Jeff Hardy versus Kofi Kingston versus Randy Orton versus Samoa Joe The following people have Daniel Bryan Chad Andrew Steven Doc and Russan Greg L.A.

has Daniel Bryan via pinfall Jen Rome has AJ Styles Okay Don Is this gonna be a six-pointer these chambers? Yep, cuz it's six people. Yeah our 16 slash or whatever Oh, six entities.

Yeah, well six units. I am this match. Yes.

He said you did. I'm going to It's like an eggplant Daniel Bryan said Daniel Bryan Don says the new Daniel Bryan Alex all right I need you to get ready with your buzzer because I'm gonna go for it You said are you declaring shenanigans? I'm declaring shenanigans I Think Daniel Bryan does come out ahead But I think we have Luke Harper showing up to cost and I'm gonna go this far Kofi Kingston The title to finish it where we move the fast lane have three on three with your new planets Triumvirate against the new day for a chance to face the planets Are you saying via pinfall?

I am not deciding that. I am only declaring winner and shenanigans I'm gonna make him flip a gasket Luke Harper would not be shenanigans because he's now with Daniel Bryan Eric Rowan that's Eric Rowan Eric Rowan. I'm gonna tell you to go ahead and correct your self-fact.

Okay I corrected myself. That's what I'm affected. No, you didn't we corrected you.

I'm I'm corrected myself. Yeah, I was wrong now. I'm right.

No I'm gonna go out on limb here. Well, you've already declared shenanigans. So let's see where we go.

No, I can't declare shenanigans again And I you know what and I'm the kind of person that might my pride my pride Is okay with the toilet Hey, it's a lot of you because I'm just I want to make this fun. I am saying Kofi Kingston wins this And that starts the road back to the new day becoming six-time tag team champions. How many times six times six times six times six times six times six times six times six times six times And now you've got the riot squad doing their thing and the new day doing their I don't think there's enough bootyos in the world to make that happen right?

I don't think there's enough bootyos in the world end of sentence or pancakes Or pancakes. No, you've got to have more pancakes and waffles. Yeah, sometimes I make pancakes for that Kofi Kingston via pinfall She likes him because he doesn't have a submission.

I mean, that makes me pancakes. You think they're Canadian Stay with me gentlemen, okay, because we're now at the point where you need to grade the card LA has said in his best trials Barclay impersonation that this is terrible So that was good. Thank you.

That was really good. Yeah, I've been working on it. He said C- Doc has said a solid B Well, we got us then why please do because of all the toys.

I like the chamber, you know, tables like that at least I like the little theme ones. I enjoy the gimmick math and bin the gimmicks If without the gimmicks, this would be a low-low grade, but because the gimmicks I'm like, you know, what states this in? Where's this at tonight?

It's in Houston Houston Houston tonight Yeah, a friend of the show, Jess and her sister are at the event. Oh, so at the Jess and her sister Russ said a plus Or less is an eternal optimist and I love that about him. Russ got into my pills last time.

He was over That's what happened there. Why didn't I get any? I hit him.

I didn't he went supposed to. Oh, okay Don grade the card this is gonna surprise you because a lot of times I'm like, yeah, but this one I think it has potential. Okay, it can be a B plus.

It can now might be a D minus, but I'm saying B plus I want you to be positive out of me a long time Alex You know, I usually hate gimmicky matches. I really don't like them But I do like the elimination chamber. I like select ones as evidenced by wrestling Christmas I'm gonna go middle of the road and say see with the right to adjust later We always have the right to adjust go see plus the next one I am saying B minus just because of the women's elimination chamber I think I I'm excited that we're finally getting these women tag belts which we thought we weren't getting until later in the year I'm excited that the women are getting the recognition that they deserve right now and I said this earlier The women's product is better overall than the men's product is right now It's the best the divisions been in decades.

It's the deepest the divisions been in decades And I am so happy that the women are getting the the the shot That's what's giving it a B minus for me. I think the men's chamber is going to be a snorfast I'm looking forward also to the I want to see how this is so thing works out Or it does that's what I'm saying so all right We are now officially ready for the elimination chamber Thank you guys for being here.
