Transcripts

00:00

in January of 2002 I became a

00:03

professional wrestling fan and since

00:05

then I've watched every single

00:07

WrestleMania from WrestleMania 18 all

00:09

the way through to tonight's

00:10

Wrestlemania 40 and I don't know if you

00:12

can tell in my voice but I'm a little

00:14

bit emotional because I firmly believe

00:17

that we just witnessed the greatest

00:19

professional wrestling show ever

00:21

especially if you include both kns and

00:23

you include NXT Stand and Deliver this

00:25

was the greatest weekend of professional

00:28

wrestling ever I don't love starting the

00:30

video by telling you that this is the

00:32

greatest WrestleMania of all time

00:33

because I'm basically spoiling my

00:35

opinion here but I do sincerely hope

00:37

that you stick around because I'm going

00:38

to be reviewing Wrestlemania 40 Night 2

00:41

I'm going to be going through every

00:42

single match I'm going to dissect what I

00:44

thought and tell you overall whether or

00:46

not I liked it and then we'll sum up the

00:47

whole show and give it a thumbs up or a

00:49

thumbs down and as always don't forget

01:03

with us because we had over 20,000

01:05

people there we got to watch History

01:08

unfold I remember when I was in college

01:10

watching wrestling by myself with no one

01:12

to share my thoughts with specifically I

01:15

remember when the Undertaker lost his

01:17

streak and I couldn't share my emotions

01:19

with anyone but this time we got to

01:21

witness professional wrestling history

01:23

and I was surrounded by wrestling nerds

01:25

like me and you to gush about it with so

01:28

sincerely from the bottom of my heart

01:29

heart thank you for giving me that

01:31

opportunity so let's gush some more in

01:33

yesterday's review I basically clowned

01:35

on the Philadelphia crowd well I can

01:37

tell you right now folks that the

01:39

Philadelphia crowd heard the complaints

01:41

heard that everyone was clowning on them

01:43

and they came back harder than ever

01:45

before because that was an incredibly

01:48

electric WrestleMania crowd from

01:50

beginning to end this is actually the

01:52

Wrestlemania crowd that has now made it

01:54

so that open roof stadiums no longer

01:57

have this excuse that oh well you know

01:59

it's not as loud because of the open

02:00

roof nah nah now you have to watch

02:02

Wrestlemania 40 night2 to see what open

02:05

roof Stadium crowds can sound like

02:07

because that crowd was Immaculate take a

02:10

freaking bow Philadelphia crowd you help

02:13

make tonight's WrestleMania absolutely

02:15

amazing so from me to you I want to

02:18

formally apologize for doubting your

02:20

game after what wasn't a very great

02:22

performance on night one crowd of

02:23

Philadelphia so now let's jump into

02:25

things match by match and let's start

02:27

with the World Heavyweight Championship

02:29

match between Seth freck and Rollins

02:31

defending the world heavyweight

02:32

championship against Drew McIntyre and

02:35

both of these guys got their grandiose

02:37

WrestleMania style entrance with Drew

02:39

McIntyre making his way through a group

02:41

of of Scottish Highlanders all holding

02:44

up swords and eventually bowing as Drew

02:46

McIntyre walked past them as well uh he

02:48

was played in by a group of bagpipers is

02:50

that the proper term for them bagpipers

02:52

and then Seth Rollins also got a really

02:54

great entrance as well which was bizarre

02:56

I compared it to what looked like a

02:58

World of Warcraft Clan running around

03:00

doing a dungeon they were the Mummers

03:02

group of Philadelphia anyways they had

03:04

all kinds of in instruments like

03:06

trumpets they had accordion and they

03:08

played Seth Rollins to the ring there

03:10

was like 70 of them that walked out with

03:13

him he kind of looked like Adam Rose

03:16

with his rose buds with that

03:17

WrestleMania entrance but honestly he

03:19

looked drippy he had his awesome

03:21

WrestleMania Tire everyone around him

03:23

was dressed like a clown as CM Punk was

03:26

saying as well as Pat McAfee uh so

03:28

overall I did like the entrance we also

03:30

had CM Punk on commentary for this match

03:32

who was absolutely brilliant doing his

03:35

best job at helping get the storyline

03:36

between these two over while also being

03:39

absolutely hilarious and roasting both

03:41

of them whenever he got a chance but the

03:42

match immediately started off with a

03:44

bang because right when the bell rang

03:46

Drew McIntyre hit Seth Rollins with a

03:49

nasty Claymore and we're thinking oh no

03:52

this is a barrial we are getting a Seth

03:55

Rollins that is just so beaten and

03:56

battered that he's just walking in here

03:58

eating a claymore and that's it that's

04:00

all she wrote and no that doesn't go

04:03

over well with fans we saw it with

04:04

Daniel Bryan and Sheamus all the way

04:06

back in Wrestlemania 28 but I'm happy to

04:08

tell you that this wasn't one of those

04:10

cases in fact this match went on for

04:12

double digit minutes now the match

04:14

really ultimately was a finisher Fest it

04:17

was more or less just going back and

04:19

forth between these guys uh with close

04:21

calls close pins uh Claymores we had

04:24

pedigrees we had Future Shock ddts we

04:27

have Stomps and it was all about like

04:29

the super close calls and I'm usually

04:32

not a big fan of finisher Fest but this

04:35

one for some reason worked especially

04:37

well and I think it was because of the

04:39

visual frustration between both of these

04:41

guys that couldn't do anything to put

04:44

each other away you could see the

04:46

frustration in Drew McIntyre and you

04:48

could see the frustration in Seth

04:49

Rollins so they were doing a hell of a

04:51

job of acting and getting us emotionally

04:54

involved in what they were feeling in

04:56

that moment in the ring like quite

04:58

seriously they were hitting each other

04:59

with every single possible finisher that

05:01

they had and it was just a constant

05:03

rinse and repeat of that but I liked it

05:05

I got to give Drew McIntyre an extra

05:07

bonus thumbs up here because of his

05:09

extra character work at one point he

05:11

grabbed his wife's phone and tweeted in

05:14

the middle of the match LOL board at

05:16

work which was absolutely hilarious he

05:18

also had a lot of banter back and forth

05:21

with CM Punk who again was on commentary

05:23

and was fantastic for this match and

05:25

what started as a finisher Fest Ended as

05:27

a finisher Fest as Drew McIntyre had to

05:30

hit Seth Rollins with back-to-back

05:31

Claymores to finally put him away to

05:33

finally win the big one Drew McIntyre

05:36

finally got his WrestleMania moment

05:39

until what's funny is that Drew McIntyre

05:42

would then go out and just Mock and bade

05:45

CM Punk to the point where CM Punk

05:47

finally snaps and starts beating the

05:49

piss out of Drew McIntyre in fact he

05:51

completely removed his uh guard for his

05:54

arm for his torn tricep perhaps hinting

05:56

that CM Punk's recovery is going way

05:58

better than expected so I'm expecting CM

06:00

Punk to maybe be ready for something

06:02

like money in the bank in Toronto maybe

06:04

bash in Berlin or maybe as late as

06:06

SummerSlam and it's poetic really what's

06:09

about to happen because not only did

06:11

Drew McIntyre get his big moment but

06:13

Drew McIntyre's entire narrative was

06:15

that he was angry at Seth Rollins for

06:18

not paying attention for not being

06:20

mentally ready for being overly obsessed

06:23

with something else that didn't matter

06:25

in the bloodline as opposed to being

06:27

focused on being a fighting champion

06:30

and what happened here the second that

06:32

Drew McIntyre finally won he took his

06:35

eyes off the ball he became overly

06:38

obsessed with CM Punk as opposed to

06:41

being obsessed with being a champion

06:43

which is what he should have been right

06:44

then in that moment because after CM

06:46

Punk leid the beat down on him Damien

06:50

priest music hits he runs down faster

06:52

than I've ever seen anyone run the

06:55

fastest cashing that I've ever seen

06:56

because this referee did not go you sure

06:59

are you are you sure you want to do this

07:01

are you positive that you want to cash

07:03

in no no no this ref is like okay I get

07:05

you Damian we're cashing this in right

07:07

now Damen hits a beautiful south of

07:09

Haven choke slam gets the Victory and

07:11

steals the title from Drew McIntyre who

07:14

was Champion for all of five minutes

07:18

this was brilliant the match honestly

07:21

because it was a finisher Fest I

07:22

wouldn't give it more than like an 8.5

07:24

out of 10 because it was still really

07:26

really fun but the interactions that

07:28

happened afterwards between between CM

07:30

Punk and Drew McIntyre the cash in when

07:32

you encapsulate all of that what a

07:35

brilliant way to start Wrestlemania 40

07:37

right then and there I knew that we were

07:39

in for a hell of a show 40 40 thumbs up

07:42

for Wrestlemania 40 for the first

07:44

segment this was absolutely fantastic do

07:47

you want even more wrestling content

07:48

because you're going to get more

07:49

wrestling content over on my patreon

07:59

the wrestling is cool podcast 3 days

08:01

earlier than everyone else on this

08:02

planet so go check it out

08:29

treat of bubble Ray Dudley of ECW

08:32

original from Philadelphia being

08:33

announced as the special guest referee

08:35

for the street fight honestly it was it

08:37

was pretty cool the street fight itself

08:39

was fine like it wasn't anything crazy I

08:42

wish they had have done a lot more but

08:44

everyone got to look good it got violent

08:47

we had the Kendo sticks all members got

08:49

to do something cool at some point or

08:51

another definitely the coolest thing was

08:53

Mones Ford flying from one corner of the

08:55

Ring to the outside nearly flying over

08:57

the freaking barricade that was badass

09:00

but honestly the two most badass people

09:03

in this match wasn't any of the guys in

09:05

the actual match it was scarlet and bab

09:08

scarlet got in there and she was using

09:10

Kendo sticks to try and take out Bobby

09:12

Lashley bab got in there and started

09:14

evening out the odds and even put

09:17

Scarlet through a table where they both

09:19

went through it shout out to scarlet and

09:20

bab I feel like they really made the

09:22

most out of their their their small spot

09:24

at WrestleMania but yeah there's nothing

09:26

particularly like too special about this

09:28

it really was just a quick to Theo car

09:31

wreck that was fun we did have a quick

09:33

Nostalgia pop with car and cross getting

09:35

mad that bubble Ray Dudley didn't count

09:37

to three fast enough and then car and

09:39

cross starts pushing Bubba Ray Dudley

09:41

only for Bubba Ray Dudley to grab in go

09:44

into his pocket and grab his old ECW

09:46

glasses because he had just awoken Bubba

09:49

Ray Dudley now Bubba doesn't actually

09:51

get physically involved he actually is

09:53

giving instructions to the street

09:55

profits as to how to do the what up to

09:58

really get that extra ECW pop the match

10:00

even had a botched ending but honestly

10:03

even then it was an endearing botch

10:05

ending because they put carry and cross

10:07

on a table and Montes was going to do a

10:09

frog Splash but the table wasn't set up

10:12

properly so as soon as car and cross

10:13

lied on it it broke so they had to go

10:15

and get another table do it again with a

10:18

beautiful amazing Montes Ford frog

10:21

Splash where he got like 35 ft of air to

10:23

put Carri and cross through the table

10:25

for Bobby Lashley to get the pin look it

10:27

was fun this is probably the low light

10:29

of the show but I still liked it more

10:32

than Jimmy versus Jay Uso because at the

10:33

very least this match knew what it was

10:35

it was quick and it was just a a quick

10:37

little burst of of of extreme I enjoyed

10:40

it it still gets a thumbs up from me

10:41

next up we have La Knight taking on AJ

10:44

Styles and AJ Styles got to debut a new

10:46

entrance theme and I'd like to get your

10:48

opinion on it let me know down in the

10:50

comments below whether you like or

10:51

dislike AJ Styles new entrance theme but

10:53

this was another match that was really

10:56

elevated by the crowd the crowd was

10:58

Rowdy for J Styles and La KN from

11:01

beginning to end funny enough they were

11:02

Rowdy for things outside of the match

11:04

because I guess the stadium turned on a

11:07

light that made it really difficult to

11:08

see what was happening in the ring so

11:10

people in the arena like the entire

11:12

Arena was chanting things like we can't

11:15

see and turn the light

11:18

off the crowd was having a tremendous

11:20

amount of fun even if they paid good

11:23

money to Nazi but the actual match

11:25

itself I'm happy to tell you was a

11:28

really good match it wasn't just a good

11:30

match for AJ Styles and La Knight I

11:32

think it was a good match to be on

11:34

WrestleMania and I loved how it started

11:37

because AJ Styles doesn't just walk out

11:39

to the ring as soon as he's close enough

11:41

to see La Knight he Sprints down the

11:43

ramp and these guys start just wailing

11:45

on each other it also seems like La

11:47

Knight saved his most Innovative offense

11:50

for this particular match because this

11:52

man pulled off a springboard DDT he also

11:55

did a German suplex on AJ Styles from

11:58

the top rope and fli flipped him on his

12:00

face that was awesome there was also a

12:02

moment where they exposed the concrete

12:04

it wasn't concrete but like we're

12:05

supposed to believe that they exposed

12:06

the concrete and AJ Styles slams La

12:09

Knight onto it and I'm not usually a

12:11

huge fan of the really close oh my God

12:13

the baby face gets back into the ring at

12:15

the nine count but they did one of those

12:17

and it weirdly got a pop out of me I was

12:19

super hyped that La n was able to beat

12:21

the 10 count of all things this is a

12:24

match where I I really felt like it

12:26

needed a stipulation with how much these

12:28

guys hated each other other I feel like

12:29

maybe a cage match would have been good

12:31

or a street fight or something but then

12:34

again maybe this match did need it

12:36

because I still really enjoyed it at the

12:37

end of the day I love that the crowd was

12:39

into it from beginning to end AJ Styles

12:41

looked good La Knight looked good I love

12:44

the ending with the bftt AJ Styles sold

12:46

the hell out of it because the bft to me

12:47

is typically a really shitty looking

12:49

move but AJ Styles made it look real

12:51

good so I'm going to give this a thumbs

12:53

up as well shout out to la9 first ever

12:56

WrestleMania and the man delivered one

12:58

of his better matches in my opinion I

13:00

just hope that you guys can now maybe

13:02

realize that that's this wasn't a

13:04

demotion for La Knight he was on the

13:06

Wrestlemania card for his first time

13:09

ever let him enjoy the moment against a

13:12

Bonafide Legend of this business in AJ

13:15

Styles not everything has to be for

13:17

titles titles will come for Lai Knight

13:19

they absolutely will the company clearly

13:22

trusts him and AJ Styles and La Knight

13:24

delivered a really great match in its

13:26

own right thumbs up next up we have the

13:28

triple threat for the United United

13:29

States Championship in a match between

13:30

Logan Paul going in as the champion

13:32

versus Kevin Owens and Randy Orton up to

13:35

this point this to me was the match of

13:37

the night because it was a tremendous

13:39

amount of fun it all started with the

13:41

great entrances we had Logan Paul come

13:43

in with his incredibly obnoxious Prime

13:46

truck with a prime Cannon where he's

13:48

shooting and we're getting fireworks

13:50

coming out of it uh and he's coming out

13:52

with another dancing Prime bottle which

13:54

leads you to ask okay who's in the

13:56

costume again is it going to be KSI or

13:58

is it going to be Jake Paul and then

14:00

Kevin Owens had his cool entrance just

14:02

like Sami Zayn where he came from the

14:04

back and the camera followed him and

14:06

Sammy was waiting for him right at the

14:07

entrance and and got him hyped up I

14:10

think that was a really neat moment and

14:11

then Kevin Owens grabs his golf cart

14:14

rides down to the ring but then Randy's

14:16

music hits and Kevin Owens puts it in

14:18

reverse tells Randy to get in they ride

14:21

back into the ring and just start

14:22

beating the piss out of Logan Paul

14:24

because the first five minutes of this

14:26

match is just the the utter Annihilation

14:29

and destruction of Logan Paul it was

14:31

basically just a handicap match at one

14:35

point after the major Beatdown of Logan

14:37

Paul who was doing everything in his

14:39

power to try and get Kevin Owens and

14:40

Randy Orton to actually fight each other

14:42

eventually Randy Orton and Kevin Owens

14:44

agree okay let's fight each other let's

14:47

do this right now and then it became a

14:49

proper triple threat match from there

14:51

this was a very good triple threat match

14:53

on its on right is it as good as obafemi

14:55

die Jack and Josh Briggs I don't think

14:58

so but to be frank I feel like that's

14:59

the Pinnacle of Triple Threat matches at

15:01

this point but I loved just about every

15:03

single offensive sequence here because

15:05

there were numerous moments where all

15:07

three guys were bouncing amongst one

15:09

another hitting each other with finisher

15:11

transitioning into into signature moves

15:14

it was honestly like a really really

15:16

free flowing triple threat match Randy

15:18

Orton was looking like a million bucks

15:20

he had a beautiful RKO where Kevin Owens

15:23

threw him up for a popup Power Bomb only

15:25

for Rand the Orton to come down with a

15:28

majestic RKO and as Randy Orton is about

15:31

to hit Logan Paul with a punt who gets

15:34

involved but the goddamn Prime bottle

15:36

who pull who pulls Logan Paul away from

15:39

danger and the reveal was I show speed

15:43

for God's sake now in the world of

15:45

professional wrestling ISO speed is an

15:48

unknown but he is a massive social media

15:51

meast star in his own right on YouTube

15:53

and just about everywhere that he's

15:55

online but it was really random but I

15:58

was like okay

15:59

hey I'm down for it if this becomes a

16:01

yearly bit where some social media

16:04

superstar that Logan Paul is friends

16:05

with is in the prime suit I'm here for

16:08

it and I show speed I guess is known for

16:10

barking at people and as soon as he

16:12

revealed himself he starts barking at

16:14

Randy Orton and pushes him only sorry

16:17

I'm laughing just thinking about it only

16:19

for Randy Orton to just spart kick him

16:22

right into Oblivion then Randy puts him

16:24

on the table grabs him by the face and

16:26

Randy goes oh and starts working at is

16:29

show speed and it's a beautiful RKO onto

16:32

the table shout out to is show speed I

16:34

feel like he was a ridiculously good

16:37

addition to this but that was enough

16:39

time for Logan Paul to really recover in

16:41

the final sequence there where they're

16:43

all countering each other's finishers

16:45

they're all countering who's grabbing

16:47

the brass knuckles who's hidden who with

16:49

the brass knuckles ultimately Logan Paul

16:51

is able to take advantage of the fact

16:53

that Randy hit that beautiful RKO from

16:55

the pop-up Power Bomb because Logan Paul

16:57

throws Randy out of the ring hits Uh

16:59

Kevin Owens with a beautiful almost like

17:02

a modified frog Splash because he was

17:05

was doing a bunch of things with his

17:06

hands and in his feet uh to ultimately

17:08

pick up the victory this was a fun chaos

17:11

I love this match up like I said up to

17:13

this point it was my favorite match of

17:15

the night so yes this gets so many

17:17

thumbs up as well and then we got bayy

17:20

and EOS sky in a singles match for the

17:22

WWE Women's Championship Bailey got a

17:24

special entrance looking like Queen

17:26

Nefertiti or somebody from Egyptian

17:29

times as she was carried by uh four men

17:31

that are probably going to be future WWE

17:33

world champions into into the ramp and

17:36

then she got a new entrance theme as

17:37

well which was pretty neat but man the

17:39

aura of eios Sky's entrance it was

17:41

nothing special it was just it was just

17:44

I don't know it just a regular EOS Sky

17:46

entrance that worked especially well in

17:48

that WrestleMania stage that made her

17:50

feel special but shout out to EOS Sky

17:52

she did not come down with anyone from

17:54

damage control she went into this war

17:55

completely by herself and I'm of the

17:58

mind that this was a Bonafide classic of

18:02

women's wrestling in fact I dare say

18:04

that at this point it was better than

18:06

the triple threat match between Logan

18:08

Kevin and Randy when I look at it from a

18:10

technical point of view this was a

18:12

masterpiece of professional wrestling we

18:15

had some incredibly Innovative offense

18:17

from Bailey who was pulling out some

18:19

moves that I had never seen before iOS

18:21

Sky being the goddess of the Skies that

18:23

she's known for being hitting so many

18:26

moon Sals either from from inside of the

18:28

Ring the outside or her patented moon

18:30

salt and there was even a sequence where

18:32

she hit a triple moons Sal from the

18:34

bottom of the turnbuckle to the middle

18:36

to the top that was awesome but there

18:38

were so many awesome back and forths and

18:41

reversals that at one point when you

18:43

squinted it sort of felt like we were

18:45

watching a Daniel Bryan match they even

18:47

have this awesome sequence of of EOS Sky

18:50

continuously countering everything that

18:52

Bailey does and putting her into a

18:54

crossface even countering the top rope

18:56

Macho Man elbow drop catch ing her while

18:59

on the ground and putting her in the

19:01

cross face but the magic of this match

19:03

really came from the close pinfalls of

19:05

iOS Sky just coming inches away from

19:08

putting away Bailey but bayley's

19:10

resilience allowing her to kick out the

19:12

finishing sequence had everyone hitting

19:15

their finishers I love the fact that

19:17

Bailey hit a clean roast plant on eios

19:19

sky for eios Sky to actually kick out of

19:22

it as well but that was enough for

19:24

Bailey to have enough of an upper hand

19:25

to hit another Macho Man elbow drop and

19:28

hit iok Skai with yet another roast PL

19:30

to pick up the victory a much deserved

19:33

Victory Bailey absolutely deserved their

19:35

flowers iOS Skai deserve their flowers

19:37

in this match it's possible that I might

19:39

come away from this thinking that this

19:41

may have been better than Rio Ripley

19:42

versus Charlotte I thought this this

19:44

match was fantastic I might be

19:46

overrating it right now it might be

19:47

recency bias but the fact that I'm even

19:49

comparing it to that match should tell

19:51

you that this is a classican women's

19:53

wrestling this is a thumbs up and then

19:54

folks to end the show we have arguably

19:57

the greatest Main event in professional

19:59

wrestling period Cody rhods taking on

20:02

Roman Reigns for the WWE Undisputed

20:06

Universal championship and right from

20:08

the rip you knew that this was special

20:10

because Cody rhods got an awesome

20:12

entrance got to come up with Brandy

20:13

rhods with which right off the bat you

20:15

just knew that this was going to be a

20:17

special match because of the star power

20:19

that was coming out as both of them got

20:21

amazing cool WrestleMania entrances with

20:24

Roman Reigns getting played by an entire

20:26

Orchestra feeling like Ganondorf from

20:28

The Legend of Zelda like the final I

20:30

guess not the final boss that's that's

20:32

that's still the rock uh but then Cody

20:34

rhods got to come out to like a a new

20:36

more violent version of himself because

20:38

there were these like bloody war banners

20:41

and and fire and he was wearing this

20:44

this Kingdom skull mask and even got to

20:46

come out with Brandy it was it was two

20:49

superstars man I was getting chills

20:51

watching their entrance but here's a

20:52

thing this was two matches these was

20:55

entirely two separate Tales here and I'm

20:57

happy to say that this wasn't your

20:59

traditional bloodline match where it

21:01

starts off super slow I dare say that

21:04

this was high octane right from the

21:06

get-go because we even had like right in

21:08

the beginning these guys going to the

21:10

outside taking advantage of the fact

21:11

that it was bloodline rules um putting

21:14

each other through tables using weapons

21:16

like they they they took advantage of

21:18

the fact that this was bloodline rules

21:20

and it wasn't just okay we're only going

21:22

to get violent and and super fastpac

21:25

towards the end like I I feel like it

21:27

was fastpaced right from the the

21:28

beginning there were moments that

21:30

allowed Roman Reigns to play that

21:32

character where he's trash talking as

21:34

he's beating people up my favorite of

21:36

his trash talks came when he hit Cody

21:38

rhods with a Crossroads but then Cody

21:41

rhods kicked out at 2.9 to which Roman

21:43

Reign turns to Paul Heyman and says see

21:46

this is a garbage move ain't nobody

21:48

winning with this move which I thought

21:49

was absolutely brilliant but yeah they

21:51

were like stealing each other's

21:52

finishers in this first portion of the

21:54

match with Cody rhods I think maybe hit

21:57

more Spears in this match than Roman

22:00

Reigns did weirdly enough so the actual

22:02

first portion of this match that was

22:04

just Roman Reigns and Cody rhes in my

22:07

eyes was fantastic in its own right it

22:10

didn't need all of the crazy other over

22:12

booking stuff that happened afterwards

22:14

which made this amazing but if that

22:17

stuff didn't happen if this was just

22:19

Cody rhods vers Roman Reigns they put

22:21

together a really really intriguing

22:24

fantastic Main Event caliber match but

22:27

this wasn't just any match mat this was

22:29

end game this was the end of the

22:31

bloodline story this was bloodline rules

22:34

and after having a traditionally very

22:36

good five-star match just hits the

22:40

fan because Cody rhods is about to put

22:42

Roman Reigns away with the classic

22:44

triple Crossroads that he tried to win

22:47

with at WrestleMania 39 but as he's

22:49

about to hit the third of course a

22:51

member of the bloodline gets involved

22:53

the first one being Jimmy Uso and then

22:55

from here there's no turning back

22:57

because this is adrenaline in our soul

22:59

because Jay Uso comes out they start

23:02

brawling they start fighting in the ramp

23:04

and then Jay Uso Spears Jimmy from the

23:07

top of the ramp they fall what looked

23:09

like 10 ft through a set of tables which

23:12

was absolutely insane in fact that like

23:15

thre minute brawl that they had was more

23:18

interesting and way better than their

23:20

entire WrestleMania night one match but

23:23

now that Jimmy was taken out then Cody

23:25

rhods once again has Roman Reigns

23:28

exactly where he wants him and goes to

23:30

hit again the triple Crossroads only for

23:35

finally solo seoa to come out solo sakoa

23:38

then hits Cody rhods with the with the

23:40

Samoan Spike but Roman Reigns tries to

23:42

pin him but he kicks out a 2.9 then solo

23:45

screams at Roman to hey let's finish the

23:47

spear him right now and they do the

23:49

spear into the spike combination only

23:52

for Cody rhods to again kick out it was

23:56

insane in a Solo is about to cause even

23:59

more pain and more Carnage in the ring

24:01

on Cody

24:03

rhods John Cena's music hits and he

24:07

Sprints down to the ring takes out Roman

24:10

reigns with an attitude adjustment goes

24:12

after solo seoa takes out solo seoa puts

24:16

solo seoa through a table Jesus Christ

24:19

and then from here it is quite seriously

24:22

a th000 miles an hour because

24:24

immediately after Cena hits the attitude

24:26

adjustment through the table on solo Kaa

24:29

The Rocks music hits and John Cena's

24:32

face oh it's hard to explain there was a

24:35

a combination of of excitement but shock

24:39

and and fear as well as Cena went into

24:43

the ring to meet the Rock and The Rock

24:45

slides into the ring and they have their

24:47

stare down and I nearly went into tears

24:50

because those are my two favorite WWE

24:52

superstars of all time I am one of those

24:54

lucky individuals that got their dream

24:57

match a lot of people don't get to say

24:59

that I got Rock versus Cena not once not

25:02

twice but I got it again I got it a

25:05

third time and the rock hit Cena

25:08

with a rock bottom screaming at him what

25:10

the are you doing here get the

25:12

out of here I'm the I'm the final boss

25:14

get out of the final boss's ring and

25:16

then the rock goes to start whipping

25:19

people and then the shields music hit

25:22

for God's sake and I'm thinking there's

25:24

no way that these guys got both Seth

25:27

Rollin and Dean Ambrose to come out to

25:30

The Shield theme unfortunately that was

25:33

the one area of this where we didn't get

25:36

the payoff that maybe we were hoping for

25:38

because Dean Ambrose Moxley is still

25:40

over an aw but we did have Seth come out

25:42

in full shield gear but he was

25:44

immediately taken out by Roman Reigns

25:47

and once again as The Rock was about to

25:49

start whipping people and start whipping

25:50

Cody rhods when you freaking know it the

25:54

Undertaker gong hits Darkness involved

25:58

engulfs the ring the the lights come

26:01

back on Undertaker's Behind The Rock he

26:04

takes out the rock with a choke slam the

26:07

lights go off again and I guess the

26:09

Undertaker drag the rock into the abyss

26:12

into hell I don't know man but I was

26:15

marking out and after the Undertaker

26:18

took out the Rock and made them

26:19

disappear took them back to Hawaii or

26:21

something then we were back to just

26:24

Roman and Cody rhods in the ring and

26:27

this is where things become quite

26:30

literally Cinema folks because Roman

26:32

Reigns then grabs a chair and is about

26:34

to beat down Cody with it to grab the

26:37

victory but who's the other person in

26:39

the ring who has his back turned to

26:41

Roman Reigns it's Seth Rollins in shield

26:44

gear and instead of hitting Cody rhods

26:46

with the chair Roman Reigns decides to

26:49

finally pay back Seth Rollins for the

26:52

plan B and he hits Seth Rollins with a

26:55

nasty chair shot to the back exactly

26:57

miror ing how Seth Rollins hit Roman

27:00

Reigns all of those years ago to break

27:02

up the shield it was magic and here's

27:05

the poet and me that noticed all this

27:07

because Seth Rollins kept his promise he

27:10

said let me be your Shield Seth Rollins

27:13

was out there in shield gear and

27:15

shielded Cody rhods from the chair shot

27:18

that would have made him lose this match

27:21

if Seth Rollins doesn't Shield Cody

27:23

rhods from that chair Roman Reigns

27:26

probably would have retained and Seth

27:28

shielding Cody rhods gave Cody rhods

27:31

enough time to recover to counter the

27:33

spear and finally hit an uninterrupted

27:37

triple Crossroads no bloodline members

27:40

left to interrupt it to finally pick up

27:43

the Victory and end the most historic

27:46

Title reign in the modern era of

27:49

professional wrestling I got to witness

27:52

history with you and 20,000 other people

27:57

we got to witness is the end of one of

27:59

the greatest storylines of professional

28:02

wrestling in the bloodline narrative but

28:04

the start of an entire New Era of

28:07

professional wrestling as well the Paul

28:09

LEC era and like I said the first half

28:12

of this was just a regular really good

28:14

in my opinion five-star match and then

28:17

the back half was when all the crazy

28:18

over booking happened and that turned to
