I think the Drew storming out stuff is 100% a work. I bet Drew LOVES seeing dirtsheets seriously reporting stuff like that because it enhances his character so much. He uses all the avenues he can to build his character and do little bits so I wouldn't put "working the sheets" past him
Potentially, but he'd normally go to twitter or go live on insta/tiktok and moan, that didn't happen this time. I'm still not sure
If there's any truth I bet it's LA Knight.
@@themt-2848 wouldn't be shocked with his track record
I mean Triple H running WWE, he loves to fuck with dirtsheets. I mean look how much they said Alexa isn't coming back or huge fight over her contract.
13:50
There is a major disconnect between wrestling fans. But at the end of the day, what matters most is the feedback from the fans in attendance.
Agreed completely.
Wrestling fans aren’t consistent. The same people complaining they put Jey Uso over Cm Punk and Roman Reigns are also complaining they put Charlotte over Roxanne Perez. And even if they had done what they wanted another set of people would complain or they’d complain about something else. The best answer is really just to ignore the internet unless it becomes really bad and seeps onto the live audience like with Cody and Kofi.
@ That's exactly where my head was at. I watched Royal Rumble with friends because I watch every PPV with them, and I was surprised to find them echoing the sentiments of the regular internet Marks. Damned if you, damned if you don't type situations. Jey is over as hell, and the first thing WWE fans yell about is how they never push the guy that gets the reactions and that the older established talent never puts anyone over and that the WWE never surprises them anymore.
Lo and behold the guy who's getting consistent reactions every time he comes out wins VERY UNPREDICTABLY and the old guy (Cena) doesn't win but somehow Jey is the wrong choice every time. It's much better to just watch it and decide for yourself what you think is cool, fun, or shitty.
Hot Take: Drew should've won by eliminating both Jey and Cena for some mega heat.
He should have won eliminating Uso, Punk, and Cena along the way.
I just want to take a second to thank Michael Cole for commenting Alexa Bliss' return with "but the Internet said she wouldn't be here". Laughed my ass off after hearing it lol. Oh and I think Ishowspeed deserves a lot of credit. He took two really nice bumps there. Especially the last one. Respect!
That spear bump was RIDICULOUS
Speed dude got literally skin in the game from that. (He had a piece of his leg get skin torn off) He had a legit injury. He then sold a leg and neck injury on WWE cameras. 9:47 9:47
I’m good on internet celebrities being presented as real celebrities on WWE. Logan Paul is enough. Musicians and actors have more star power, they’re the better option if they can bring them in. I show speed is the WWE equivalent of AEW bringing in the Costco guys.
@ The guy has an average of over 4 Million viewers. That's a lot more then WWE had for decades.
I get the hate for Logan Paul because its well deserved since he's a massive PoS who has no place being in Wrestling to begin with. But small Cameos like this? Those are perfectly fine.
I feel like the speed bump is making people overlook the Roman bump. Bron's spear to roman was harder than speed and may be the nastiest spear I've ever seen in my life I gasped when I saw it.
The hottest take is Steve liking Charlotte 😂
Man… smh
I guess someone has to.
I can’t believe she’s 38. Trish and the Bellas look younger than her. Too much surgery and enhancement to the face can do that.
Not liking Charlotte makes no sense imo. She's one of, if not the best, women's wrestler in the ring of all time. And the greatest women's wrestler of all time. I know her booking has been kinda bad with all the winning in her career but still. I don't get how people don't like her.
Charlotte rules
Sorry Jey eliminated you
I was pretty shocked
@@WrestleJuiceshockmaster shocked or just super cena shocked
Ending this video with the Georgia Peach logo was chef’s kiss!
I had made a post on Twitter shortly after Jey won the Rumble, simply saying that while I wasn’t rooting for anyone to win the Rumble this year, I get why some fans are upset with potential winners, but I don’t agree that Jey winning wasn’t deserved.
I IMMEDIATELY got a reply back, telling me to "fuck off."
Tbh, comments like this make me hesitant to share my love for wrestling online.
The IWC can be gatekeeping and close-minded, and it seems like Jey winning the Rumble only proved that more. I've been a fan for almost a decade, and it's frustrating to feel restricted in my excitement for where this story might go.
It also sucks when people wanted super old wrestlers like John Cena to win. Like he is retiring and like he doesn't need the belt, he doesn't need to be the record especially when John cena said million times he rather not beat it. Same for say CM Punk who been wrestling for over 2 decades. I want new wrestlers or people who can benefit off Rumble, and we got that. I mean fuck, if Hulk wasn't hated, if he returned at Rumble, would people scream for him to win then? Or Undertaker? Or Stone Cold?
Don't take it personally, keep sharing your thoughts and opinions. People feel they can say what they want online because they have no repercussions. So you keep giving your opinions and F them lol.
IWC is filled with garbage.
My hold up with Charlotte is that she never passes the torch. She derailed Rhea Ripleys early momentum, stole the NXT women's title to do nothing with it, and then drop it to Io in a triple threat where she didn't even get pinned, so Io didn't even get the creation for beating Charlotte. I can easily see Charlotte winning at Mania just because Charlotte wins lol
She passed the torch from one plastic surgeon to another. Her face doesn't look as botched as it did during her last run.
@@eldenbotting5054Ah, that was a good one.
Just like her dad
She did pass the torch to Rhea. That was like not long ago.
@@christopheraaron8299 Insulting a woman's looks because you're not a fan of her booking is very mature......
My hot take is that Maxine’s bit was one of the best overall bits throughout both Rumbles, thought she had a great showing with the little she did. Was also a bit mad that Hendry was eliminated so quickly by Roman, but it still was a big moment for him regardless.
Definitely was a fan of the Yeet meister winning the Rumble, was a nice surprise and not worth all the negativity (with some apologising to TK and the Death Riders because of this)
Scorching hot take. That women's Rumble was a rough watch but the reverse worm into the elbow was some of the worst fake fighting I've ever seen lol
Anyone calling Jey Uso "catch phrase guy" hasnt been paying attention the last 4/5 years
But he is yeet man tho I personally call him the WWE mascot with all his cringe ass yeeting 😂
9:55 Finn Balor’s Music Was Ridiculous 😂😂 I Was Like Who The Hell Is This. Then Finn F’N Balor Came Out & I Was Floored.
The music is really bad now. I didn't know who was coming out half the time.
Im fine with the theme.
@@oharold It’s time for Def Rebel to go
There’s also the fact that Balor’s trons are white instead of purple after nearly three years
I remember for a few Rumbles that wwe dropped the "Winner gets to main event wrestlemaina" and used "Winner gets a title match at Wrestlemaina" between first women's Rumble to last one night maina
Yeah I don’t know why they dropped it
@@theabyss86Roman reigns and John Cena were the reasons why
Thinking charlotte is going to job at mania is insane, you've lost your mid brother
Charlotte will lose but a dusty finish.
She literally jobbed to Rhea at Mania just 2 years ago
She "jobbed" to half the roster except Asuka, only person she HASN'T lost to. Are you fake fans dense on purpose to get likes, or are you really that stupid?
Right? Charlotte's gonna BURY Tiffy and go on like a 2+ year streak. It's gonna suck.
@@MDestron2282 You guys are stone cold idiots. And now you're just shit posting to see who can make the most damning Anti-Charlotte comment.
On the topic of themes: Listen to Adam Cole's final NXT theme, listen to DIY's new theme, listen to Jacob Fatu's theme.... there was some recycling going on there.....
Jacob Fatu needs a banger theme, it needs to be immediately obvious that he's going out the the ring
Sure some similarities but Cole’s theme was by CFO$, interesting point tho
@@xfinityBLADE oh yes! His classic theme was CFO, but his final one (Thunder Boom) was a def rebel ear strain 😅
Vince is gone and we're still using Charlotte Flair to derail the momentum of whoever the hottest female competitor is.
What does she have on them? There's no way she doesn't have something that could just end everyone in charge. Otherwise why? Just.... WHY? I was tired of her like 8 years ago.
can we please remember that people upset will make more noise than people that are happy with something. Majority of the time the loud part of the internet is a very small minority. Can we stop projecting a mountain over of an ant hill
I was initially a bit disappointed Joe Hendry was eliminated quick. I’m ok with it because he was eliminated by Roman Reigns rather than someone like Otis, no offense to Otis.
Royal Rumble was good except winners of every match.
Lol! Totally agree.
Sorry Steve but the way Charlotte was portrayed last night was ridiculous.
She was never at any risk of going out, Roxanne got basically zero offense in at the end and Charlotte was the only woman to get pyro.
I'd be shocked if she loses to Tiffany.
“Doesn’t work for me, sister.”
RIP Tiffy
Just stumbled upon your channel. Great insight dude. Imma sub!
He has a few channels. His name is Steven Larson 🤘🏻
100% Vince and Rick have something on Trimple H and blackmail him to give Charlotte the win. There is no other reason I can't see anyone who think that was cool.
The wrestle juice video isn’t over till you see the Georgia peach logo
One of my favorite parts of the Rumble is seeing Jaida Parker in there. She's something special and I predict big things from her in the future
Charlotte shouldn't have won that rumble because it didn't make any sense
It makes a lot of sense when you realise there’s not many people that can carry Tiffany Stratton in a big match at Mania. Bianca and Naomi are preoccupied, Io and Bayley are booked as losers, Asuka and Becky are out and you don’t want to put a rookie with another rookie. There really wasn’t any serious choice besides Charlotte, Nia and maybe Alexa but even so she’s been gone 2 years.
i didn't like it at first but ive had time to think about it, now i feel it makes perfect sense.
@@jaybee4288Charlotte doesn’t need the rumble to get a title match against tiffy at mania. And say Roxanne wins which is what I wanted by the time we got the final 3 she can just go after Rhea who isn’t a rookie. That said I think if anybody was gonna get the return to rumble and win spot it shoulda been Alexa bliss
when joe came out we knew who he was cause his music is so iconic and some main roster people I didn't even know who they where by the music
The way you ended this was just perfect lmao
My hot take is that Jey isn’t challenging Gunther. He’s going to challenge Cody in some kind of continuation of Cody’s entanglement with the Bloodline. I think Jey either wins, or Cody wins via a heel turn.
Cody apparently told Sami "You made the right choice" since he didnt help KO win
See, this is why I wanted Sami to win or Sami to win at chamber. Sure, John Cena vs Cody is great, but like there is a legit story for Sami winning, compared to most others people throw out.
I was there Live. The tag match got a lot of respect but it was basically the restroom break and concessions stand break. Sad to see, because they were having a good match
Man I thought Triple H would book Charlotte differently than Vince's she came back from injury? Lets give her all the spot light and the title
Triple H adored her dad.
Both Vince and Triple H are close to her dad, what did you expect?
Seem like he was for awhile. She lost to Rhea and has been out of the title picture. When she came back, she was working her way back up. Now, she has been gone for awhile and wins the Rumble. Yeah, it looks bad. I hope Steve is right, that she has come back to help Tiffany and not win the title. Cause I know the internet will explode. LOL.
@ Not even, when she came back last time didnt she beat Becky or Asuka or something for the title on a Smackdown match?
@@cosmicvcosmicshe beat ronda when she returned on a smackdown episode then dropped it to rhea at mania
I noticed that Drews hair was dry when he entered the rumble. Makes me wonder if there was last minute changes to the entrance order and they sent him out before he was ready
What kinda Sherlock Holmes bullcrap are you talking about?
@@JayMyke-j3w😂
I dont see Cody turning heel like people are thinking. Think about it, would you not celebrate the same way against a guy that almost crippled your mentor and tried doing to other people as well, slanders your name and assaults you at any chance he gets? Cody just isnt gonna let shit slide anymore and he finally made Kevin realize the meaning of “Fuck Around and Find Out”
Loved the Georgia 🍑 logo ending 😂
I think the best match for Jey and Gunther would be an Iron Man match. Gunther (and some fans) always criticize Jey for being "just a Yeet gimmick", so what better way to show everyone he CAN go the distance than a good ol' classic Iron Man! Some might think a match like that might get too long and boring, but it will help legitimize Jey's win. If you need an example of an okay wrestler going the distance with a great one, "John Cena VS Shawn Michaels on RAW 2007. 45 minute Iron Man Match".
Jey IS a catchphrase, sunglasses and an entrance. But he has a connection with the audience that the majority of WWE superstars would kill for. I don't agree with him beating Gunther, but I understand that you can't keep blue-balling the fans by having him come short all the time.
Jey should have held the mitb not win a rumble
That's the thing. OVER means OVER. The 2nd biggest face in the company. Also, WWE has failed to pull the trigger so many times in the past killing the upward momentum (Ryder, Ziggler, even Punk in 2011). This is the right call. Internet always has a meltdown. Even if Cena won, internet would've had a meltdown. Kudos to the creative for pulling the trigger.
@lolmeister185 To be honest, I'm not sure who I was hoping would win. I wanted Drew to win, but there was zero chance of that happening. Anyone but Logan Paul really.
The backlash is that we have seen Jey and aGunther twice.
I would argue there's great crossover between people who dont like jey and people who didnt like the bloodline saga
THE GEORGIA PEACH LOGO?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
Jey is like a B tier in-ring talent rn. I do agree he deserves a world title but he desperately needs more than 5 moves and needs to spend more time wrestling than yeeting to be considered for main eventing mania
Yeah, he needs a training arc lol, i love the guy though
B? No, Jey is E tier. The guy is trash on the mic, trash in the ring, and really just has a catchphrase.
@@PettyCrow-n9c There's no way you can say Jey is trash in all these areas he's average at worst
@@PettyCrow-n9cdid you forget he's promos with the new day. And the heel ouso promos that was amazing. You also don't remember he's move set back when they first joined WWE, they both had a massive move set, it was when they turned them heel, WWE stop both of them from doing the big spot moves to keep the heel persona's. They did the same with Roman go watch he's NXT and how big he's moved set was, most wrestlers have their few moves. There's only few that do have more and if they turn heel they drop most of them. It's how WWE want their wrestlers to be. Face's can do almost anything, heels can't
I like Roman, but his move set isn't that great. He does have good matches. But, he is a big character now and that is his draw. His matches the last couple of years, were the same match. I enjoyed them don't get me wrong, but a lot of people are all in on Roman and during his reign they were saying the same thing. Jey is good on the mic, he is fun in the ring and he is hugely popular. If Politician Cody can have the WWE title, Jey should have the World title. Jack Swagger and several other of those guys held the old World title. They def never deserved gold. But, honestly I would like to see Gunther have a reign to Summer Slam and Kevin Owens as WWE champion.
What I meant by kids being fans of Jey is when you see kids in the crowd they are usually going wild in Yeet glasses. He has an over catchphrase, his high energy entrance is exciting and has a hand gesture any kid or adult can do. The colors he wears are bright. His production is just kid friendly if that makes sense. Adults like him for the journey, but little kids dance with him like he was Barney. All ages can enjoy him though.Kids might not get the story behind KOs shirts, but they know how to Yeet along with Jey.
WWE will lose money pushing Jey. He was a trash IC champ, and will be a trash World champ.
Agree 100% with the person who said about the entrance music, it was shockingly bad. Also the audio quality for the women's rumble was very bad, it seemed to be better after that match.
Whats great about Jey Uso winning is not just that he's extremely popular, a main event star years in the making but also that you could easily put Jey Uso against either Gunther or Cody Rhodes. Gunther's heal persona is the polar opposite to Jey's face persona. Easy heel vs face clash. On the other side, Jey uso and Cody are friends and have a history, totally could build up a personal fued for the title, and tease the idea of Cody turning heel to keep the championship and to honour his father. There is alot of ways you could spin this.
Jey vs a heel/anti-hero Cody at WM41. It’s the title he tried to win from Roman originally and failed to, and Jey as the super babyface is going to call out Cody’s “mad king” descent and making a story there. Considering they’re actual friends they would kill that shit.
It's Jey vs Gunther
I think it’s crazy how much of a contrast there is in the crowd reception between Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso. you could really see it during the Rumble - people stand up and move for Jey, Jimmy was barely acknowledged.
Take it from a guy that was there in the building. Jey winning was great. this whole weekend everyone was either wearing Jey merch and/or just saying Yeet everywhere. its was like the wresting verison of the Christian fish logo. a secret password for 60k people to connect.
Seth Rollins opened Wrestlemania 35 with Brock Lesnar since Brock didn't want to be in the midcard and the women were main eventing so they said Brock would open instead
As for Cody Rhodes turning heel, it might happen but I'm also reminded of how vicious Cena was in matches against heels in his day and he never turned heel.
I believe both streams are 1080p but peacocks bitrate is much lower, so it’s much more compressed. Netflix also has a low bitrate but they have the technology to be able to output a higher quality stream.
You missed a great moment to show the peach logo and then come back with an extended promo. Great show as always
Perfectly said about Kevin elevating the title , Kevin makes everything feel like a big deal , shameful that they won’t give him the title
Not the Georgia peach logo. I’m so done 😂 🍑
Speaking as one of Drew's countrymen who wants him to win all the matches ever, I'm more than OK with a match with Damian at Mania, & in fact I think it could be a sleeper hit.
See, there isn't a lot of history between the two, but what little there is, happens to be very impactful. Here's a brief timeline:
- Survivor Series 2019: First televised encounter, where Damian gets the better of Drew after a staredown
- August 2021: Damian & Drew tag with one another in a few matches against common opponents Jinder, Sheamus, & Bobby Lashley
- Raw 30.08.2021: Damian defeated Drew & Sheamus in a triple threat for the US Title, which is the last title Drew needed to become a WWE Grand Slam Champion (anticipating the later Wrestlemania triple threat with Gunther, where Drew prevents Sheamus from winning the IC Title, the last one Sheamus needed to become a WWE Grand Slam Champion - seriously WWE, why don't you make this a storyline thing?)
- Wargames 2023: Drew teams with Judgement Day against Cody's Avengers
- Raw 01.01.2024: Damian's failed MITB cash-in - 1st time he's directly cost Drew the World Title
- Raw 22.01.2024: Drew pins Damian. This is the only time Drew has ever defeated him one-on-one.
- Royal Rumble 2024: Drew & Damian are in the final 6, this time Drew wins their encounter
- Wrestlemania 40: Damian cashes in on Drew right after defeated Seth - the 2nd time he's directly cost Drew the World Title
- Clash at the Castle 2024: Damian (w/ Punkterference) defeated Drew in his home nation
- Money in the Bank 2024: Damian defeats Drew (& Seth, thanks to Punkterference) for the World Title again
- Royal Rumble 2025: Damian eliminates Drew from the Royal Rumble, costing him an opportunity for the World Title
In nearly all their interactions, Damian has got one over on Drew, & Damian has beaten him every time a title is involved. So I think that Drew & Damian could have a belter of a hard-hitting WM match based on the story of two veterans of roughly the same age finding themselves at loggerheads, where Drew is understandably incensed at Damian once against interfering in his quest for the championship, while Damian is still trying to prove himself as worthy of the world title scene - it just so happens that it's been mostly at Drew's expense.
Behind the scenes, with no evidence other than "I just have a feeling," I think Drew & Damian really want to work with each other, & he's been very generous in putting Damian over for 5 years - which is why Drew's going all-out with the kayfabe tantrums. Everything I've read about Drew's backstage demeanour is that he's one of the friendliest, kindest dudes in any locker room, so just as with Punk, I'm 100% convinced that he's playing it up for the Scottish Psychopath character.
Charlotte is 2 cosmetic surgeries away from becoming the cat lady
The WHC being treated like a mid-card title and having a couple of mid-card champions from the past year feuding for the WHC makes it feel like they've already given up on thst belt again.
Like at least Seth main-evented night 1 last year while holding the belt.
Here is another hot take I have. I was there and the crowd went absolutely silent when Demian priest came out.
Unfortunately his Theme is dogshid peepee poopoo doodoo. But do you think there's something greater there? Is Damien the kind of Wrestler that people only like when there's a story? Obviously having a compelling storyline is preferred for every Wrestler but some Characters like Jey Uso do just fine in the audience interest department even when the Writing/Booking isn't so hot.
@kylefields3951 that is a very well thought out in worded reply. I was not expecting that! Not saying us wrestling fans are not capable of that. I just really enjoyed reading your reply. It is true. His theme is very bad and very generic. I even forgot who was coming out. But I think it had more to do with his placement coming out. But the entire arena felt dead silent for his entrance. I think we just cooled on him. Maybe he does need a story.
i miss being a kid. when stone cold lost i didn’t have a single thought about creative or writers. i thought about how his opponent probably cheated or how vince intervened or something. you people are the ones ruining kayfabe, not them. john cena had the perfect opportunity to throw jey out but didn’t do it. jey had cena on the ledge and kicked him off like anyone else would. now cena has to come back and show us what he’s made of at the next PLE.
Logan Paul belongs on television he loves it and I could care less about what he does in his free time dudes a natural at this and I wanna see more of him
The easiest fix to the rumble is to have the announcer intro who ever the next entrant is
I think that rumble stats ticker in the bottom third of the screen could be a bit smaller, there was this line of blue that didn't need to be there imo, but i like the idea of it
I feel like WWE would book Cody vs Roman vs Seth vs Punk vs John Cena vs Sami at WM 41.
Everyone complained every time jey lost a big match and he finally wins one and they still complain cause it wasn’t what they expected.
6:30 FICKLE.
People fangirling/boying over Cena is ridiculous, he is one of the reason I slowly got turned off by WWE after Punk left, his gimmick is tiring and needed a guy like Punk to be worth watching his matches. Rock putting him in his place was satisfying to me at WMs. I've long been done with Cena and wish he retired years ago. Stop pushing that guy 😂😂
The Georgia peach at the end of the video was a nice touch
The funny thing is WWE built the CM Punk vs Undertaker match as one of the co-main events so using that logic Punk has already main evented. But even WWE themselves don’t retroactively consider those main events to be true main events.
Co-main event is the equivalent of giving your kid brother an unplugged controller so that he can feel like he's playing too. But even still, that match should have been the main event lol
I don't understand why we have 2 Royal Rumble winners and 2 night WrestleMania's if both rumble winners can't main event each night of WrestleMania. It's been 4 years since it happened. Ideally it would happen every year unless there's a bigger storyline that has to be finished and in that case have the Royal Rumble winner open the show.
That Stadium was YEETING their asses off.
They've been pushing Jey as a main-eventer for months. I would've liked to see Cena win for nostalgia, or Roman win for his comeback story, but Jey should surprise no one.
I feel like the bloodline helping each other / avoiding each other in the rumble is not being put over enough
Also, John Cougar Mellencamp deserves to be slept on, because making you fall asleep is all his music is good for. He isn't bad or incompetent or anything. He's just... *deeply* boring.
The Lonesome Jubilee is a fantastic album, and my record collection is primarily punk and metal. It's a mood. I probably appreciate it more now that I'm over 40 and half the songs are about getting to middle-age and looking back. 😂
Kinda like Cena has been for years 😂
I can see Sami not being too thrilled to help Jey train to beat GUNTHER since Jey eliminated him.
We seem to be on a Sami heel arc.
I think that having a 'single source' for the music is part of the problem. Have a small team with specialization in different genres.
Congrats to Charlotte 🎉
I said "who is this? I dont recognise this song" so many times during the Women's Rumble. The songs are not memorable anymore
Nothing from the New Day at the Rumble as well as 2 back to back losses against Rey Mysterio? I feel like they had so much momentum with the build towards heel Woods and now idek what they’re trajectory is anymore.
It's a slow build. They gave Logan, Kofi's spot this year, with the barricade to the steps spot. It all may be part of the build to the New Day crashing out on WWE talent.
Cody vs Sami would be a hell of a chamber match to follow up with after that.
What if Roman tells Jey: Give me your title match
So Roman does the rock to Cody again?
I think you're looking at it backwards. It's not that Drew shouldn't be working someone of Damien's level. It's that if Damien's ever gonna have credibility he should be working someone of Drew's level.
I think I made my take little too off the cuff, as I posted that take immediately after I watched the show. Looking back Hendry wasn’t completely wasted. I think I just wanted a good few minutes of him more as someone who’s followed him since he was in WCPW
What I hope the WM Card looks like:
Jacob Fatu vs. Solo Sikoa
Charlotte Vs. Tiffany
Liv Morgan vs. Alexa Bliss
Street Profits vs. DIY vs. MCMG ladder match
CM Punk vs. Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns vs. Drew McIntyre fatal 4 way
Rhea Ripley vs. Iyo Sky
Jade vs. Naomi
Bianca vs. Jordynne Grace
Cody vs Randy Orton
John Cena vs. Joe Hendry
La Knight vs Shinsuke vs Carmelo vs. Andrade TLC Match
The New Day vs. War Raiders
Sami vs KO Cage Match
Chelsea vs. Piper
Theory vs. Waller
Roxanne vs Bayley
Jey vs. Gunther - Gunther retains
AJ Styles. Vs Logan
Dom mysterio vs bad bunny
Trish vs Nia
Lyra vs Raquel
22 matches over 2 nights 😂😂
I feel like most of the people wishing random wrestlers to win the rumble just jumped the bandwagon. Cuz they don’t make sense.
27: The number of times this week alone Steve has said "He's gotta be honest with me."
I gotta be honest with you, Steve. I'm going to start telling you when you're telling lies.
I need to transition to “let me tell ya something”
Heel Cody time? It would be fun if he goes heel after Mania. Probably not though.
Jey winning on paper is meh, since he just lost to Gunther and their match was... Fine?
But when you add the caveat that Jey eliminated Sami, as a result of Sami helping Roman.
The story potential is very interesting.
Nah the story is the worst part. Jey's promo skills are subpar and he can't wrestle worth a shit. People completely forgot how trash his IC title matches were 😂
If this ends with Sami as WHC I’ll be thrilled
@@PettyCrow-n9cyour opinion. Most fan's don't agree with you.
Roman is gonna be busy with Seth/Punk. I'm guessing Sami is going to be dealing with Cody/KO for a little bit. I genuinely think that they think Jey/Gunther is good enough
No licensed music, please! It sucks when you go back and watch some old stuff only for them to replace the licensed music to a random generic track.
Yeah they’d have to future-proof it for sure
@@WrestleJuice I guess you could find bands willing to do theme songs for them. Punk supposedly knows Cory from Living Color, so it was easy to use. If you get the band to do it, then you have the copyright in your back pocket.
Most of the stuff at the moment already is generic. At least that way present day broadcasts will hear better themes.
As much as we want Tiffany to beat Charlotte something tells me in wwe fashion Tiffy is losing at mania & they want her to chase till summer slam where she wins it back.
At this point I’ll be okay with cody vs jey….Cody could carry the match more than Guntha…nothing against Guntha (Huge Guntha fan) but them running it back again is going to be boring until the last 3-5 mins of the match.
Two and a half months of a Jey and Gunther programe 😭😭
Wasn't there some news in 2024 that WWE wasn't going to renew their Contract with Def Rebel? They did search for a new position as well for "Director of Music Strategy and Operations". And as far as I read back then, Def Rebel's contract was up until the end of 2025 meaning they should already have somebody new. Or they might soon.
Old people NEED TO STOP referring to fans on the Internet as "Internet Fans" it's 2025 EVERYONE IS ON THE INTERNET! They aren't separate anymore!!
Pretty sure it’s specific to wrestling fans who are highly active and engage in discussion on wrestling social media. And trust me, the crowds in the arena are by and large not that. Like, I went to an NBA game last night. I do not engage in NBA fandom online but plenty of fans do. The majority of people attending games are more like me. We keep up with what’s going on but don’t engage with fandom online.
They're saving trick Williams for Memphis Friday I hope. The home of whoop that trick
lol the GA logo at the end, I'm done with you lol
No one in the industry should be surprised that people are tired of Flair being gone for extended periods of time(regardless of why) coming back getting an insta shot at a title, winning for a short run, or losing, then disappearing for an extended period of time. It's tired and played out, her entire character and every story is belt related its a boring schtick.
Being a Charlotte Flair fan is like being a fan of the Lakers post Luka trade. Did you also root for THANOS in the Infinity Gauntlet comics??
Roseanne Perez vs Rhea ? Nah pass
Roxanne vs Tiffany ? Nah too soon
ishowspeed = Costco guys. Can’t they bring in a rapper or something? Like snoop? I want to see another one of his people’s elbows 😂😂😂😂
My thing about the “main event” promise is even WWE likes to make that apply to the marquee match, which is really just the label for whatever the biggest and most important bout is. I see your point that it should be the match that goes on last, but…the marquee match of early SNME shows was on at a specific point of time to maximize ratings potential. So…the “main event” kinda becomes whatever the company makes of it, for better or worse.
Also… 12:24 👏👏
Now we Know the favor is for Paul to make cm punks match the main event
I thought it was a really enjoyable show and felt like the first “big” show for a while with all the legends and celebrities present. I loved it, was.a bit surprised to see a lot of negativity online. Sure some of the decisions they made are debatable but in the absence of knowing where they are going with most of it i think it’s hard to say they’re bad. I liked it a lot.
Here's my takes:
1. I think Cena wins the chamber.
Cena vs Cody at mania. then, I think Punk cashes in his favor with Heyman to make it a triple treat. Punk has huge history with Cena and also with Cody recently.
2. I think it's Seth vs Roman at mania. Then I think Drew will attack them both, also making it a triple treat.
This booking would be incredible to me
I like both those triple threats!
Because nothing’s been mentioned of the Tag Match…. My HOT TAKE is :
Having the Street Profits attack MCMG and be presented as heels, made it easy to see them as heels.
Once they attacked DIY as well though, now I’m curious how they ‘Rock-Paper-Scissors’ this. Do we hate them for attacking MCMG but not dislike them completely for attacking DIY just as hard ? 🤷♂️😂
They cost MCMG the titles, so yeah people are mad at them. They are going to get the heel heat. But, they are popular and if they are presented as strong and heelish, the crowd might still like them. Like me. I like the Street Profits, so yeah I am happy to see them finally get a serious push.
I don't hate the Jey win - but when the numbers become lower - it became obvious - because of the Gunther interactions prior - it just makes WM predicable - I'm not ready for a Gunther loss yet - but I'm concerned, once Jey wins, Roman will want the title - then their "feud" renews - and its bloodline stuff all over again...
