WWE

That's the kicker.

I mentioned on the Raw preview, a friend of mine said to me, oh, what do you reckon to, you know, because his kids like WWE, he likes WWE.

When we lived together, we would watch like the big WWE shows, basically, and I'd sort of annoy him by being like, you see what's happening on Raw this week? No, not really, not at all.

Well, I'll tell you anyway, and I'll show you the clips.

I'd

have had to sit to this day, but it's about a row from 15 years ago.

He said, I don't really like Sami Zayn, he's WWE champion.

I said, look, sit down, I'll explain why you're wrong.

Approaching November, all the great events coming up.

We're going to be covering that in full, whether it's WWE, AEW, of course, New Japan Pro Wrestling, TNA.

Sprinkle in some stardom and some CMLL, AAA, and really the indie scene.

Anything that is catching our eye as far as wrestling news goes.

We got AW Blood and Guts, of course, going opposite of NXT.

But we also have November and what's happening at Crown Jewel in Riyadh.

And it seems like WWE is not balking.

And we'll give you guys the update here.

I'll throw it back up a little bit later on in the show.

WWE Smackdown.

So full disclosure, I told SV3 I was going to make the thumbnail.

Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes.

You're Guile from Street Fighter.

Oh, you are all these things.

The American Nightmare, QB1, undisputed WWE champion.

This is how I know Randy's washed, by the way.

I know Chase.

We're all big WWE fans.

So I appreciated the German suplex by Dijon Lee.

I didn't want the penalty, of course, but I like setting the tone like that.

I mean, I thought Obafemi would be proud.

Obafemi, if you guys don't know, former Alabama track and field, SEC, you know, I guess champion, national champion, I believe, All-American, all that good stuff.

He's now one of the big faces in WWE.

Maybe Dijon Lee, if football doesn't work out.

Yes, 1000%.

The women are just absolutely just killing all across the board on the indie scene, on the big companies, WWE, AEW and everything.

The women are just doing their thing.

And also too, you see them like ring announcers and referees.

and ever since he has booked me every month put belts on me um you know made me feel like i can do i can do stuff like doesn't make me feel like i'm just like a really new person and i am don't get me wrong i'm really new to wrestling but it makes me feel worth and stuff like that

yeah absolutely very cool very cool now what are some things like some goals and stuff that you have for yourself in your business what's some goals you want to accomplish

Um, well, I, Michael, isn't going to WWE.

I don't want any of that.

It's kayfabe.

This is the guy who worked at WWE.

He knows how to work a crowd.

He's not dumb.

Now, to his credit, the Packers defender, he adjusts his body mid-second so he doesn't crush Jared Goff.

It literally looked like a soft clothesline that you would see in WWE for decades.

Hits far more brutal than this were considered legal.

But today, it's a game-changing penalty that essentially gave the Detroit Lions a free win.

Again, I don't think they're fixing them for gambling purposes.

But like you're saying, Rich, great minds, when you get in bed with the gambling companies, you've now opened yourself up to people saying, is what I'm seeing real? Well, how much of this is rigged? How much of this is WWE? You're right.

Even if it's not true, the fact that people are asking these questions is very damaging to the brand of the NFL.

Even if they can't see it right now, it is damaging to the overall brand of the game, I think.

back in the early 80s.

He bounced from the NWA to the WWE or WWF, I think

it was

back then.
