Special Edition WWE Battleground 2014

The following is a sooner or later production.
Good morning.
Boom!
yo stop I ya ready for the jam.
I said ah ya ready for the jam.
Yo g keep it around mypuheets.
Well...
Wow, that's very good.
It is 702 on the East Coast.
It is the 20th of July in the year of our Lord 2014.
It is season 5 episode 2, numerically episode 261.
Clubhouse is live on the air, it is our regular normal schedule time and number
2 is also WWE Battleground Day, so it is time for the Battleground pre-show.
We welcome each and every one of you no matter how you are listening, whether you are
listening live on you stream, whether you are checking us out on the archive, which
is a lot of you tend to do, or if you are listening on iTunes, we appreciate that as well.
We don't care how you are listening, we are about your here.
My name is Rob, and he used to love you, but your traffic sucks, and that is what I had
to say about that.
Joining me to my ride, he is normally across the desk for me, but he is live, we are live
at an undisclosed location that is not the Hilton in Tampa.
To my ride is a man who alerted me to a couple of celebrity in Memoriams today that I was
not aware of in July and saw a space with this morning.
He is Chad.
Yes, I was quite shocked by that.
Oh, I love that sound.
Even at the undisclosed location, they still find you.
Yes, even though we are at a underground compound, we like to call it the bunker, the
kids are calling us.
Yes, we refer to this as the bunker.
WWE Battleground is live on the air in 56 minutes, get it on the network, or if your cable
provider has it, because satellite providers don't, and very few cable providers do, get
a hold of it.
Basically what we are going to do is we are going to run some headlines for you.
Normally, we are your one-stop shop for all the exports and entertainment, but since it
is Battleground Day, we are going to be wrestling intensive.
You are currently hearing the theme for Battleground, a jungle, ex-ambassadors, and Jamie O'Neal,
I believe is the young man's name, it's kind of, I don't know, it's kind of white stripe
fish for me.
I love it more industrial, but yeah, I can see why you'd say that.
Let's talk about the only story that matters this week.
Vincent, man, do not play with my emotions.
We are going to talk about what happened Monday night on Raw here in just a minute, but
Thursday afternoon, Vince puts up a tweet with the picture of Sting from the commercial
we are going to talk about here in a little while and says, can life imitate art?
Vince don't play with me.
He's already said he wants to wrestle.
He's already said he wants to undertake or he wants to wrestle mania.
Okay, what are your thoughts on?
Can't wrestling number one, let's do it with number two, with it against Mark in his
condition.
Well, it's going to depend on Mark really.
Mark's already said it's highly unlikely, but we've seen him wrestle under more
strenuous conditions than this.
Yeah, I mean, not much more strenuous, but more strenuous.
So, I mean, you could do a rock scene of thing where you could start it at 31 and
lead it up to 32.
I mean, do I want to see it?
Yeah, but am I afraid of getting what I asked for?
Kind of, it's Sting of WWE ring.
Well, I'm just with Sting is one thing, but Sting that match is what can be
Well, we'll keep you updated on that.
So, I'm really an interesting article of interview with the Mizz this week, where
he says he is basing his current version of his character on Andy Kaufman.
Now, if he starts saying this, people is toilet paper, then we might have a problem.
So, we're going to get a Mr. Jerry Lawlope, a myth of Timothy, kind of thing again.
God, I hope not, as it can be done.
Jerry's still here.
Yeah.
I can't even just let the Mizz be the Mizz.
I don't know where we have to build a character around him.
The guy's got enough personnel.
He can work the thing on his own.
Keith, man.
Wow, I've touched that.
You're really filled.
I'm not a real person.
I'm not a big fan of the Mizz apparently.
I'm not a huge, and this is going to be kind of a shock to hear from me.
Coming to you is I'm not a fan of face Mizz at all.
It's really.
I'm more effective heel, because he's just so dead.
I'm irritating.
You want to crack a skull.
I just don't think he makes it convincing face.
Well, at least a version of the face that we were getting before he went on his long hiatus.
He just kind of came up as kind of pandering.
I just think it's hard to watch him without John Morrison.
That's my whole thing.
Yeah.
I thought they were a great actor.
And you didn't news that that's very much upsets me.
So Monday now I'm going to go ahead and tease this Monday night on Raw.
Flair shows up.
Cena shows up.
Cena apparently gives him the World Heavyweight title.
Apparently that was a silent retirement of that belt.
I know that had to hurt you bad.
The news that I'm reading now is we talked a couple of weeks ago about the new logo
being on everything by SummerSlam.
And that's going to include the home run plate belt.
So I'm not dubbing that.
But they're getting ready to the World title.
I'm sad.
That's, that's a lot of history that you're pretty much throwing in the recycling.
Probably, you know, this may be a list we need to do one night.
Probably one of the most historically relevant belts in wrestling history.
For me.
Definitely iconic. Yes.
It's just, it's one of those things.
Looks like Russ is in the chat room.
Good to see him.
Um, I got a lot of windows open on my screen right now.
I just, I have mixed feelings because on one hand, I kind of feel like, okay,
you give it to Flair and don't bring it back.
Because technically that would be a player with the last person to hold it.
Yeah, I like how that would represent it.
I still don't like that Cena's on his 15th run.
That still makes me nervous.
But as apparently so do our friends here at the Undisclosed location.
Um, the Empire's not abused.
Yeah, we are not abused.
We found you.
They did find this.
I, well, what was that, what was that blinking light I saw under my car?
Well, it's certain about that when I pulled up.
But, um, I've been,
We're not.
Is this where wheels often weren't boxed out?
Seriously, think about where you are.
Speaking of which, we did talk to our friends at Fox and Hound.
They are shooting for Summerslam.
Fox and Hound is shooting to carry Summerslam.
They've just started turning it those technical additions worked out.
Technical problems worked out.
And again, we love to thank our friends at Fox and Hound because they've always been good to us.
And we're going to keep checking and know this guy.
They are working towards getting that thing back.
Yes, true.
So, and they, they do recognize the importance of the WWE fans to their business,
which I think it's a great thing too, because they don't have to do that.
But they do it because they love having us out there.
You know, we bring a good vibe to the room.
So we're hoping to be back with them soon.
But back to the world title.
I just don't, I, I don't know.
In time, I'm sure I'll be better with it.
But right now I'm very sad.
It's, it's a bitter pill to swallow until you split the roster again.
But I mean, you didn't feel this bad about the old eagle belt that they retired for the news.
Because it's not this belt.
Well, but still, I mean, they're about to all time.
I'm just saying.
All right, let's talk a little bit about raw shall we?
Let's.
I said, what are you doing over there?
I just got, I literally just got in from a trip to Galveston,
I'm very unorganized right now.
Okay.
Yeah, because you never forget the iPad during the regular show.
Well, listen, this case, it's, it's reachable.
It was when then, within stepping distant from you.
So I want to start.
We're talking about the, the first Triple Edge Stephanie segment.
They did like a little make-out thing, and that kiss was just.
Ookey.
Like, which is funny.
Considering that they are actual married.
That's how they really kiss.
You.
You know, like, remember, if you've ever had a time where you went to go,
the first time you ever kissed a certain amount,
and not any girl period or a certain girl,
and you went for one type, and she went for the other type,
and you liked it.
That's what that looks like to me.
If it too far, and you were just like,
you know, somebody almost wanted it up swallowing
the other one's face on accident.
That's what that looks like to me.
Oh, she wasn't that into this. Okay, my bad.
Yeah.
Or, I was just trying to keep it, keep it low key,
and she just went for the custom.
I'm not saying that's happened, I'm not saying that's not happened.
But, that's what that looked like to me.
And so, I wanted, for just a moment,
do a little thing we like to call wrestling logic.
So, summer ray and Leyla are dancing on the announced table, right?
Okay.
So, let me make sure I'm clear on this.
Two women dancing on the announced table.
Solid as a rock.
One botch spot, and the thing falls apart like a house of cards.
And I mean, they were up there for what a solid three or four minutes.
Just dancing and jukin and jive, and JBL was drooling
and Michael Cole probably had never seen a girl before.
I was just like, okay, you know, I love you, Michael Cole.
But, I was just like this week.
Lollar wasn't there one drooling, that's kind of a story.
Well, they were on JBL side of the table.
Okay.
So, I think Lollar thought he was watching a motley crew video.
I'm not for sure.
But, I just, I was like, really, this is what we're doing.
And I just don't know.
We're going to turn them into a tag team now.
Is this what we're doing?
Do we need to turn them into a tag team?
We're going to do something to give us a vision.
Do we need to give us tag team partners though?
Because that's never really chilled with us.
So, they get in the ring to distract Fondongo,
and they end up both kissing Ziegler on either side of his face.
This is like just fight through it.
It might be only one when I was watching that moment.
I was waiting for Ziegler to pull a Tommy Dreamer,
and say, I'll take them both, because I'm hardcore.
By the way, Tommy Dreamer, if you haven't caught both parts of his interview with Stunkl to see
you've also done the Steve Austin show podcast, do yourself a solid.
Something that I learned, because apparently he was working in talent relations with WWE for a while,
they had a this sign to go away.
Signed and set to take on the Undertaker at WrestleMania.
Oh, man.
Abyss backed out.
Now, reaction of the day of the week.
So, that story goes to Andrew Beckham, who said,
what was the afraid of his career taking?
And then we had the segment with Rusev and Swagger called the Dayton.
And they wanted people to tweak during this with the Hashtag Dayton.
There you go.
I've love it at this point.
And my question was,
WWE asking for the Hashtag Dayton was like me using conundrum when talking about NASCAR,
a few weeks ago.
Exactly.
Wrestling logic.
You gotta think certainly that.
A certain section of our wrestling fan base.
But it has to be look at the go.
Dayton, it's not how you prepare food sometime.
And let me taste something.
If that Lanna, I missed it.
What do I miss?
If that's spaghetti, it's not like that.
If Lana's really speaking Russian,
that is dark on impressive.
We need to find out if she's actually fluent in that language,
because she was rolling with it, man.
And that segment, she was rolling with the Russian.
Like it was her native language.
I mean, it was impressive.
And did anybody else notice that during that segment when they put our president on the screen
that he gets the same career reaction that Cena does?
Just splits the crowd right down the middle.
That was like, wow, Cena's backstage gone.
Okay, so I'm not the only one.
And I'm going to say something.
If they work this Bella angles, and it's because speaking of the bellars as their music plays,
if we work that angle into total divas, I will stop watching this show.
Really?
I'm going to stop watching total divas.
If they work this whole, one of them being fired in the other one,
having it taken out on them by the authority.
If they work that storyline into the show, I'm out.
How would they work that into this show?
And you're not watching the show?
They don't work angles into this show.
No, I'm just saying how would they work that into the show?
Because that would mean that the bellars aren't getting along in blah, blah, blah.
Okay, okay.
If that happens amount, I'm telling you now.
So let's talk about this thing commercial for a minute.
If you haven't seen it, go to YouTube, look it up.
Any way that I describe this thing, can't do it justice.
It was amazing.
I loved that commercial.
I loved it, I loved it, I loved it.
And you know what, I'll take that for now.
I got his name on the screen with the logo.
But you know what the best part of it was for me.
What, by or pre-ordering the game, what do you get?
Two generations of state, which means you get?
Oh, let's go stay.
You get all the cool stuff.
Let's go stay.
Let's pour guy.
I like how he says he can't make his hairdo that.
What?
You probably could do.
Because if you can make your hairdo, what it's doing now?
I can't make my hairdo with his hairdo, I was knowing that.
Incidentally, I looked up Katherine Perry, who is Lana.
And who will be in Pittsburgh too?
Elvis, the four siblings born in Gainesville, Florida.
To the parents of Portuguese and Venezuelan Extractions,
she spent several years of her childhood in the Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic in the Soviet Union.
So she didn't live there.
Where her father worked as a Christian missionary.
Her her and her family remain in Latvia after it declared its independence from the Soviet Union
in May of 1990.
From an early age, she aspired to become a ballet dancer like her mother.
She attended the Riga choreography school, the ballet school, the Latvian National Opera,
and began dancing with the Latvian National Ballet at the age of 14.
So how old is she?
She is 29.
Oh, okay, fair enough.
And you know what?
God helped me, but I love this Rhodes Brothers bit.
God bless Cody Rhodes for doing what he's doing.
Because when you can do stuff and you can even make dust and look at you like,
what the hell is he doing?
Yeah, I was saying he's, I think he is more committed to this bit than then gold dust.
No, you don't.
Oh no.
Well, I'm just going to be as wife apparently going to be up on the roster interview
and here soon, so.
And am I the only one that when Jericho comes out, you want something written on the back of a jacket?
Something scrolling in the LED light, there's something just not.
You maybe I could see how to like that, but now that the jacket he's wearing now has nothing on the back of it at all.
Even just like the Y2J logo that would sparkle or something.
But I do love his new shirt. Have you seen the new shirt?
No.
It's Jericho as the Retrubian man.
He's got the arms out here and he's got him here and then he's got him here.
Right.
But it's Jericho on it on that.
Oh.
And so we talked briefly about the flare segment a little while ago and I want to go to it just a little bit more.
Has anybody else noticed that Flair has turned his Hall of Fame ring into a pinky ring?
Yes, he really.
And Flair is the only person that could turn a Hall of Fame ring into a pinky ring and make it work.
Maybe Beaumani Jones, but he would never be in the WWE event, but still.
Although he is a big wrestling fan.
So there's that.
Well, don't never say never.
We've seen a couple of athletes make the two sides of the athletes a sports reporter.
Well, he does the show with Levittard.
Now you're looking at the shirt.
Yeah.
Is that not cool?
I'm not seeing it.
I'm not sure.
I'm on shop.
I'll just go to the house.
It's going to go to shop.
Do you know which I do have another T Fury shirt coming in the mail?
If you look up Friday's selection, you'll know which one I'm talking about.
Okay.
Let's talk a little bit of impact headlines.
Shall we?
If we have to.
We always do.
Hard court justice will be taped on August of 5th at the Manhattan Center.
They've really cleaned up the Manhattan Center a lot if you've been watching impact the last couple of weeks.
Of course.
The battleground poster.
God.
Speaking of which.
Oh, they just they just unleashed and unveiled the next limited edition statue.
I'd like to do it for take a last year.
It's going to be marching man.
Wow.
Does that look impressive?
Each piece includes a portion of the arena banner from from WrestleMania 5.
But they really did.
They made the Manhattan Center look great.
And what's that hold like 500?
Which means they should be able to sell it out.
Ouch.
Just say it.
And just in case you didn't have enough Bobby Lashley in your life.
He's actually starting to contract with Bellator.
I hear you're just now looking at the steering t-shirt for sale on shop.
But just just seeing the ad pop up as I'm looking for this.
Even though they've listed them on the alumni section, that's good enough for me.
I want that t-shirt.
But Lashley has signed a contract with Bellator.
So he'll be doing both wrestling and MMA.
Speaking of MMA, if I may take a moment and do something a little personal here.
That's cool about it.
Shout out to friend of the show.
Guy that I go to church with.
Eli the Tomahawk to Mez.
Remains undefeated after his victory Friday night in Allen, Texas.
I believe now 8-0.
Professional.
Great guy, great family.
Great fighter.
He actually fought on an access TV earlier this year.
So I have it on my DVR.
And he has his own streak.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Somebody made him an action figure.
A couple of weeks.
Really?
It looked really cool.
So congratulations.
He liked great victory from everything I've heard.
I wish I could have been there for you.
But I was out of town.
So we're getting ready to go out of town.
I lost up going up.
Wanted to shout out to him.
We're going to have him on the show one day when.
What do you want to do it?
He gets breathless.
Great guy.
Let's see.
Where are we going?
Oh, we're going to impact from here.
Only a couple of notes from the impact.
I'm not afraid to admit.
And I don't know if any of you guys caught this.
When EC3 caught his promo Thursday night.
The crowd started changing.
You can't rest.
So he went to the crowd with up to a guy.
Put the mic at his face.
You go, you can't rest.
Then he seemed to go, yes, I can.
I go, you can't rest.
So I'm very great.
God bless the kid.
He's really starting to come into his own.
Lemonade's out of lemons.
I really thought they were going to turn him face there for a minute.
But it looks like they're just going to keep him full blown heal.
And I'll say somebody else who's really gotten some skills that I was impressed
with was this Britney chick.
She was in a no-hold smart match against Madison Rain.
That was a quality match.
And she's got some technical skills.
I was impressed by her.
Where do you look at?
I'm trying to see if they're doing a.
Like we are hoping some sort of a special edition of W2K15 to see if there's like any.
Sting edition like they did for taker for the last one.
Oh, yeah.

Charlotte Parker is on Pinterest but not right now because she is on her way to
Cabo for a few days.
And Jill's mom is just chill with the house.
Yes, she is.
And all of her jewels warm witness.
And all of her jewels warmings.
Did you just say that?
Yes I did.
It's out there now.
Chad is about to rejoice.
He's about to be very very happy.
Creative now distancing from the spoiled brat Alicia Fox character.
They are phasing that out.
Does it work so well?
And is that where she can actually go?
Like she's not great but she can go a little bit.
Yeah.
You know?
I mean she's no, she's no Belena.
Yeah, that's fair point.
And it news that upsets me greatly.
Apparently with the budget cuts that haven't going around.
Ricky's theme boat has been released from a company.
That's a crime.
I have a problem with this.
That is one of the greatest of all time.
And a guy that.
I mean when we saw him wrestle Jericho or wrestling,
if you're here, he still go.
Yes.
convincingly.
There was no struggling there.
At least it didn't seem to be.
Very upset by that.
Very very upset by that.
But yet on swuggles, still one is a job.
At least we have some left.
Is that right or so?
I have no notes from SmackDown because I didn't get to watch it.
I got home Friday night.
Went to fire it up in the AT&T network.
Which now.
So I watched SmackDown.
Did we miss anything?
No.
LA said we really didn't miss anything on SmackDown.
I watched a little bit when I was here at the end of this close location.
Getting everything set up.
I didn't see the whole LA summer raid thing.
That's all I really saw.
So there's that.
And also Adam Rose saying that the two of them will probably be Rose Buds with him tonight.
But we'll talk about that here in just a moment.
It is time for us to run the car.
These are not technically in the order that they will be on the car.
They're just what I call the order of what I think is important on this thing.
You have two pre-show matches tonight.
Two of them, sir.
Let's talk about the first one.
It is Funkadactyl versus Funkadactyl.
And a showdown of Epical Proportions.
Really?
A Cameron versus Naomi.
Not overselling that much, are we?
Or is I like to call it the Brum Brum Brum Brum.
You know, in this day and age of the WWE network pretty much being the only way to view these things.
With very few exception.
Is there really much sense in it even calling it a pre-show match anymore?
Technically, it isn't before the show starts.
By the way, Rotten Russ 72 is in the chat room.
It's Twitter, have you want to follow him as well?
How are you doing, Russ?
You know who the winners are in this match?
The people that need to take a bathroom break very early on.
The timekeeper is the winner in this match.
Because I really don't care about the one that's not married to a new self.
I mean, I don't know what's more annoying to me.
You know, Alicia's stupid heel turn or,
I get him.
It's Cameron, isn't it?
In Cameron though, the heel in this whole thing.
I think so.
It's Cameron Cameron.
But Cameron is the one working heel, right, Don?
Okay, Cameron's working heel.
So Naomi's the one that's married to a new self.
Yeah, it's like what they're doing with Cameron and what they're doing with Alicia Fox are very, very similar.
And that's what they tagged on, on the bra Monday night.
But just just what they're doing with those personalities is just so stupid.
I don't want to want to watch this.
And it's that part of you, and they only got skills.
So maybe they're kind of trying to prime her for a good solo run.
Maybe so.
So you don't have to take a huge push.
But I think total devious hurts this thing.
I do too.
I've really done.
You and I've talked about that on more than one occasion.
And it's, I think it's just pulling the curtain back too far.
Your other free show match.
Adam Rose versus Fondon.
Over under on this match three minutes.
You think?
I just keep putting Adam Rose in these squash matches.
Plus we got female shenanigans always taking place.
Yeah, that'll play a part.
I think it'll be great if they unmatched the bunny and it's Joey Mercury.
Like I've been hearing rumors of recently.
Dear Lord.
We saw him on that CM Punk thing.
He completely shaped his head.
Joey Mercury.
What was he rocking?
He used to have the big bullet when he was with M&M with Johnny Nitro.
Oh, God.
I think Adam Rose wins this shenanigans from the girls.
Don says he agrees.
I just does this one with this music play.
I don't know why.
But for punishment.
I like this one.
And the other of these matches have happened yet.
Because it's like, it's just now half past the hour.
We're ahead of the curtain because we had no SmackDown discussion.
Oh, no, no.
I figured by now we would have at least the first match.
I don't know.
He's usually probably about five to ten minutes.
Okay.
There's right now looks like we're featuring something with the Bella Twins.
Oh, it's a commercial.
Oh, they're those Susan G. Coleman.
Yeah.
Okay.
Let's get to the actual event.
Let's start here in 30 minutes.
WWE battleground.
Which by the way.
Oh, by the way.
The first match.
Rust.
Rust predicts one of the Punk of Dacles away.
Going on a limb there, aren't you?
Are they Rust?
It's live from the St. Pete Times forum in Teetown, baby.
One of my, one of my claimed hometowns of Tampa, Florida,
carrying this show tonight.
It's worth a lightning play.
Have you been to the arena?
I've not been to that arena.
I've been to the chopper can of field with the devil race play.
Okay.
So I have not been to Raymond James St.
I look like the, the looks like the pre show is just about to kick off.
If I can see the reflection in the mirror, right?
All right.
Starting this angle.
Actually, I know where I'm going to have to myself.
Divas title on the line.
AJ Lee versus Paige.
Do you move the belt?
Well, I think I just hit purity.
See.
Don says Paige.
Do you move the belt this quick?
Well, considering AJ's quote unquote delicate condition.
Allegedly.
But we verified that because she's taken some pretty serious bumps if she is.
I reported it.
Oh, to your god doc.
Um, just so you know, I just got notification with WWE that the,
the battleground kickoff shows on.
So, well, thank goodness.
I just don't know if you moved the belt yet.
Well, no, actually, I think we'll have verification of what happens
as a result of this match.
If Paige wins, then I'm going to stay with the thing that she is pregnant.
But if she retains the belt, I'm going to be wavering a little bit.
Let's see.
I'm going to a site right now where.
I'm going to, this is after pregnant rumors.
AJ Lee, you show down.
Of course.
I got a pop up right in the front of it.
Versus Paige, a battleground with.
So there's still rumors at this point.
It says that like she's basically putting the rumors to bad.
Is that what that, her showing up was about?
Yeah.
So, I'm going to skip by, by tick on this one just because I think what really is happening
is going to be the result of this match.
You have a prediction, sir.
It's hard to say.
It's just, at least now Lee who is Sam Punk's wife is clearly putting the
bed rumors as she is pregnant and can concentrate on defending her building
in stage.
So, I don't know, that would be the other reason why I think you would take the belt away from
AJ and put it back on.
That's what I'm saying.
Put it back on pages if she isn't deprecant.
He's to take time away.
Well, starting this angle that we're going to have at least for a little while.
Bray Wyatt versus Chris Jericho.
I don't think Jericho wins this one.
This two early in the angle.
You're not going to fire this thing up two weeks ago and have Jericho win.
I think this will, this may carry through through survivors series.
They've produced it that the Bray Wyatt or Wyatt family seen a thing go carry through.
Four, at least.
But I think this could be a, this could potentially could be a really good technical match because
most of these guys really work well from a technical standpoint.
And another grudge match.
Jericho in the rocky four of wrestling, rocky four.
Jack Swagger versus Rusev.
Are we going to make this a flag at a pole match?
We, stop people.
And there we go.
We need to make this a flag at a pole match.
I think it tastes sir.
Don't say Swagger.
I think this goes to, it goes to Summerslam.
And I think Rusev wins.
I think they, they save slaggers win for Summerslam because that would be the major.
Hmm.
And I do predict a Vladimir Putin to reference.
Oh, I don't know if that'd be such a good idea.
I can turn what the current events are happening over there right now.
If you don't think they'll work that in your out of your mind.
Oh, that looks like your first pre show match will be Bondongo and Adam Rose.
So they're going to save the Davis for the next match.
Did you give a prediction here sir?
You say Rusev.
I do.
I say Rusev because I think they're going to save Swagger's win for the major.
I don't know.
I think there's there's way too much potential for shenanigans here.
I think with with maybe a lot of getting involved in getting him with a flag pole or something.
I think big E comes in for the save if you're going to do that.
Yeah.
Our show show.
You know, crack Zeb Colter over the head with something and he'll get distracted.
So well, yeah, I'll go with Rusev too.
Don.
He says Swagger.
I'm sorry.
He says Flagger.
Yeah.
This self is sure the cat of WWE.
And in former faction versus former faction.
Dean Ambrose versus Seth Rollins.
This could be match of the night.
Yeah, I don't see how I can't be the match of the night.
I think Rollins win.
I'm sorry.
I think Ambrose wins because they've dragged this thing out long enough.
Or do you think Rollins wins?
Just to perpetuate the more Ambrose continuing to show up and ruin his day.
Trying to cash in money is back.
Well, because plus you still have.
You know, Steph and H and in Rollins is corner.
Don says Rollins.
Yeah.
I think I'll be on the end of the loan.
Ambrose prediction on that.
Tag team titles on the line.
Wow.
That ended badly.
Two out of three falls.
Usos whites.
Now, if Ambrose Rollins is not match of the night.
It's just will be.
These two teams have put on quality paper view matches every time they've gotten together,
especially recently with this being two out of three falls.
This is going to be a great match.
Yes.
Don says the whites.
I think it's time.
I said, I said, last paper view it was time.
I think it happens this time.
Yeah.
I think you move those belts.
And I think they win it clean.
I think that it's going to go all three falls,
but I really think that the whites win it clean.
Don't do not go to the bathroom during this match.
That's all I'm telling you.
Yeah.
This is not when you want to miss it.
You know what?
This could lead the card.
This could be the person matching the card.
Really? You think so?
Start it off for the bank, sir.
All right.
Looks like some array and Layla are with the rose buds.
Is it already over?
Or is that even insert yet?
Okay.
Ooh.
And there goes Spawn.
Don't go get attacked by the Layla.
And then tagged by the summer ray.
I was waiting for one was that I say could taste.
But I think we all agree with you.
So don't I mean, a whites on this?
Yes.
I think this is the one we're unified on so far.
And what could probably the most fun match to watch of the night?
And I'm not going to change the music just yet.
20 man over the top battle royal for the intercontinental championship.
Alberto Delrio versus Big E versus Bo Dallas versus Cesaro versus Curtis Axel versus Diego versus Dolph Ziegler versus Fondongo versus Heath Slater versus Kobe Kingston versus Rob Bandam versus our truth versus
Ryeback versus Sheamus versus Incara versus Coli versus the Miz versus Titus O'Neil versus Xavier versus Zach Ryder.
So the group apparently is saying Bo Dallas.
No way.
The reason I'm not changing the music yet is because my prediction is the next song.
And I'm kind of surprised at least one person listening to me has not said this name.
Who are you saying sir?
And don't make me go down the list again.
Oh, I've got it in front of me.
Good.
I don't know to me the smart money would almost be Cesaro.
That is my prediction as well.
Antonio Cesaro will be your new intercontinental champion tonight.
Don't say in Bo Dallas.
I don't think you're ready to put that belt on him.
Especially if Cesaro is in this match.
He is on such a monster pushed right now.
Plus being a quote unquote Paul Hayman guy.
I think he wins it.
Do you think like the way I'm they've got like a graphic that I'm looking at.
And the four guys that are in the lower corner of this picture are the last four guys.
I think if they're going to be standing.
Ziegler Cesaro, Bo Dallas and Sheamus.
Yes.
Why isn't he defending his belt?
This is a champion.
Sheamus.
I don't know.
I don't even know why he's in this match.
But I think he'll be a part of the picture.
Maybe Big E might not work his way in there too.
And your main event for the evening is a fatal four way for what's now just going to be the WWE title.
Because the heavyweight title is gone.
Roman Reigns versus Kane versus Randy Orton.
Oh, I didn't have that music in there.
So it's down.
Versus John Cena.
Hmm.
There are strong rumors that Cena could drop the title tonight.
He has not scheduled to be on Raw tomorrow night.
Because of a movie that he's going to be in.
But you also have plans C.
Lesnar's involved tonight.
There's no doubt in my mind.
Lesnar's involved.
I think I think Kane tries to screw Orton ends up screwing himself.
I think Orton wins.
Because you're not going to put the title on Reigns yet.
And Reigns, Lesnar for Somerslam, way too early.
I would like to see it.
Don't get me wrong.
But if you're not going to have Cena walk out with the title,
I think Orton's probably the logical choice.
I think we're building Cena, Lesnar for Somerslam and see it.
But if he's not going to be off Raw tomorrow night.
That just seems like what they're best.
Yes, your Somerslam poster does have Cena and Lesnar on it.
For now.
But we all know they can change posters at any time.
This is true.
Because that didn't look like a Somerslam poster to me.
There's nothing about that poster that said Somerslam to me.
So Don's saying Roman, you're saying Cena.
But I'm saying Orton.
I'd rather see Roman, but I have a feeling it's going to be.
Way too early.
Yeah.
I think you wait for Roman's title ring for WrestleMania.
Oh, I agree with you.
I agree with you.
I'm just saying I'd like to see it be Roman.
But I still think it's probably going to be Cena.
18 minutes ago until Battleground begins.
If you have the WWE Network, you'll be able to watch it there.
Certain cable providers are still going to carry on paper view.
Why don't you have the network?
I mean, I'm not here to show you for the network.
Why don't you have the network?
Yeah, you're kind of crazy.
It's what's best for your personal business.
That's all I'm saying.
I was waiting for that.
That's best for Vince's pocketbooks.
By the way, speaking of the network, they are starting to beta test it internationally.
So the beta testing for the WWE Network overseas has begun.
When does the six month thing expire September?
September.
No, no, it'll be next month because remember to start in February the 24th.
Okay.
I can't remember.
It was the night after elimination chamber.
Okay.
So your six months will be up next month.
But I don't know if they're going to increase the price or if that's just for.
Like if you bought it on iTunes, you bought it for the whole six months at one time.
Right.
So I didn't buy it on iTunes.
I bought it through the website.
And again, it's it's great.
It had a shaky start.
But it's it's really.
And if you really have it's game.
If you want to watch who went to Guerrero look like a.
But what did I call him last week?
Oh, guys.
What did you go?
Uh.
You said it sounds like you go back and you watch.
Oh, boy.
I'm still waiting for him to start adding all of the raws and smack downs and stuff like that.
But that there's been no.
Wow.
Oh, oh, we got to grade the cart.
Yeah.
I was going to see plus.
Did you hear what we say?
A D.
Whoa.
For this.
What?
Yeah.
There's definitely some.
There's some variables involved.
You know what?
I would give it a C plus right now.
Just like Don.
Just a little bit above average.
But I'm not willing to take the plunge yet into anything higher.
Well, I'm about to shock you.
Please do.
Be minus.
Really.
Shad going with a B minus for battle ground.
Just on the strength of the car because it looks like a really decent car.
For a non major.
I'm impressed with it.
Yeah.
