But thank you again for joining us for another episode from our perspective on your boy Dion. Joined by the man, the myth, the legend himself, Captain Hader. Q, how you doing on this fine WrestleMania week?
SPEAKER_01Hey man, what do what it is? You're right, on the past. It's your boy, Mr. D. A.K.A.K. Say your name up on this. I'm good, yeah. I can't complain, man. I'm excited. I'm excited to see what's going on with WrestleMania this week.
SPEAKER_02I am too. Uh we are not alone though. I low-key feel like the third wheel now, as we have another mixed vibe podcast member joining us. He goes by the name of Joe. How you doing, Joe?
SPEAKER_00I'm doing great, man. How you doing today, bro?

Q knows everywhere else that it's at, man, because he uploads this thing to everything. I'm probably on Pandora and your AM radio too. I'm not quite sure yet. We are on Pandora. We're on Pandora. I was just joking on that one, man. And they really are on Pandora. Okay, so we're everywhere, man. We everywhere. Y'all gonna have to have to see this mug all over the place. They even put me on this show today. So blessing. Thank y'all for having me.
WrestleMania Hype And Night Two Bias
SPEAKER_02Uh thank you for joining us. Uh, Joe, from what I've been told, you used to be a big wrestling fan back in the day. We kind of got you back into it a little bit here recently, special with WrestleMania. I did hear that you did watch uh Elimination Chamber. You also wasn't a big fan of the show. It wasn't a great show. So you know you so respectfully, you're right. It wasn't a great show. But I'm gonna ask you first. Getting back into wrestling, I know you it's not the attitude area, it was never gonna be the attitude area. That was a different time, a different world. But how are you feeling about this WrestleMania build?
SPEAKER_00It's different, man. It's so different. You know, like going into 40, I remember being so hyped up about that one. And even going into 41, I was like, what they gonna do here? You know, like there's all these possibilities. It didn't pan out as well as we all kind of hoped for in the end, but yeah, going to this one just kind of feels a little bit different, you know? Like it's a it almost feels like something big could really pop off, but you're also kind of like, I guess, afraid to get your hopes up because you're afraid of you know being let down again. Yep.
SPEAKER_02I agree 100%, but I gotta ask my always question when we talk about these PLEs, Q, Joe. I'm assuming since it's WrestleMania season, that you both will be watching WrestleMania night one and night two live. Would you would I be correct with that statement?
SPEAKER_01Yes. Yeah, yeah. Um, I ain't gotta go to Thunder Over Louva this year because my kid's gonna be in Tennessee. So I ain't got nothing else to do. Hey, there you go.
SPEAKER_02Hey, not mad at it. Uh, again, we are gonna be talking about night one in particular in this episode, but I gotta ask another question I gotta ask you guys. It's two nights. Are you more excited about Saturday night or Sunday night? I know Q, you sent me the lineup when it showed up, and I gave you my answer immediately, and I was like, man, it's Sunday night for me. I honestly could skip Saturday night, but I'm not going to because I have a podcast I have to review it all. But I really could skip Saturday night. That's how I'm not into Saturday night I am, and that's how much I'm into Sunday. But Joe, which one is there a night that you're more into, or is it just me? Am I the only one that's super into Sunday night?
SPEAKER_00Oh no, man, it's night two all day, man. Come on now. Oba and Brock, CM and Roman. Yeah, night two for sure.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. That ain't even a question. It's not it's it's it's not a question. Night one has the potential to steal the show, though, because they have some talented people on the card. But just looking, just looking at it on paper, it's night two with a question.
Confident Point Predictions Explained
SPEAKER_02All right, fellas, let's go ahead and get to the nitty-gritty. If you guys are not aware, if you're new here, we do confident point predictions. I stole this from the Steven Larson podcast, the going in the Raw podcast, they review wrestling as well. But what go what the what confident point prediction is, we pick who we think will win and we give it its own unique points. The seven matches on night one, the match you're most confident in, you pick a winner and you give uh seven points, the match you're least confident in, you give a winner and you give it one point. We got some confident, or we got some uh prop bets sprinkled in at the end to know so we don't get no ties. I'm not gonna lie to you guys. I believe Q Q's been uh he's been dog walking me the last few years.
SPEAKER_01This is the I think it was just the last. I think we tied the one before that. I think don't quote me on that, but I think we tied the one before that.
ESPN Lead In And Celebrity Match
SPEAKER_02But maybe it was the results right here. You know, I keep it. I threw it away because I was mad. But Q won by a score of 13 to 10 at Elimination Chamber. I threw it away because I was mad, but I did you are correct. We did tie one on something, some weird stuff happened and we ended up tying. But elimination chamber, we won you won. So Q is your winner. But let's go ahead and get into the show properly. They're doing a little something weird here, I think, personally. Well, I wouldn't say weird, but different. There's no pre-show technically. But the first hour is gonna be on night one is gonna be Esp and two, night two is gonna be on regular ESPN. I guess you know they're trying to draw in those numbers, trying to get more people to get that ESPN subscription. Trying to, no, trying to hype up the show. Will it work? I don't know. But the two matches that we do know that are gonna be on ESPN 2 on night one is gonna be the six man, that apparently that's gonna open the show. It's Logan Paul, Austin Thurry, Division, who is on the Vision faction, which is on life support right now, with Acho Speed versus LA Knight and the Usos. This is a weird, weird match because you know you got Acho Speed, who is a streamer, very athletic person from what I've known. Can he go in the ring? I don't know, but I know one thing I do know they're gonna rehearse the crap out of this match probably before the show. But I am not sure who's gonna win. So I'm gonna go first here. I don't know who's gonna win. I'm just gonna go out on a limb here that they're gonna give it to the vision because again, the vision faction is on life support, and I'm gonna give the vision with two points, and we'll talk about who's gonna eat the pen after you guys give y'all's. But I'm gonna let you go next, Q, because I don't know. It's just the first match of the show, show off a list celebrity.
SPEAKER_01Okay, so I'm gonna go with L I'm gonna go with LA Light and Uso with a confidence point of one. Because, like you said, I really don't know who's gonna win this match. This match really feels like it had a storyline. It didn't feel like it was nothing to worth talking about. Because I can also see the vision winning with I show speed doing something on accident, like everything, like this whole storyline is him doing a bunch of things on accident, and they end up winning the match. But at the same time, in my head, it's like, man, LA Knight should have been in the title pitch a long time ago. Y'all gonna have him losing the I show speed in a rebranded Austin Durry?
SPEAKER_02Yeah, Logan.
SPEAKER_01I ain't gonna include Local Power. Local power, like we gotta give that man his credit. He be doing this one too. So yeah, uh I thought we're going down on the cross. So yeah, I'm going with a one for the who souls in LA Knight.
SPEAKER_02All right, Joe, who you got?
SPEAKER_00I don't want to give it to the vision, but like you said, it just feels like they're gonna do something because you know you got a celebrity involved in it. The vision is, you know, hospice right now. So they need to do something to keep them alive and make you at least I mean, they're the tag champions right now, still, aren't they? Yeah, okay, yeah. Yeah, so you know, they don't want to make them look too weak. I feel like something might happen between the Usos and LA night, you know, like an accidental bump or you know, somebody didn't hit the ball, something like that, man. So I'm gonna have to give it to the vision and I'll show speed. I'll probably go for about a three.
SPEAKER_02All right, three, all right. So you got the vision as well. Uh since I have a vision, I'm gonna assume Jimmy Uso is gonna take the pen. I'm assuming you would feel the same way.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna say LA Knight, man.
SPEAKER_02Ooh.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, they're not gonna take that p.
SPEAKER_02Uh Q, you gotta eat this pen.
SPEAKER_01Okay, so I picked the vision to lose. So I'm gonna go. They already buried that man when they rebranded him, so but if y'all predictions come out right, I think the person who should eat the pen is Jay. Because it says Jay, because Jay already heading that way. You know, he already had a he had a segment with Cameron earlier today. I was gonna mention that he's heading down the hill pal. You know what I'm saying? So I think Jay would be the one to eat the pen, then Jay does something crazy.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, yeah, that ended up like this. That tells you it's WrestleMania week when you see crazy stuff like Jay Uso attacking Cameron on his own podcast. Crazy. Hey, WrestleMania week, you never know what you're gonna get.
SPEAKER_00Anything can happen.
SPEAKER_02The other match that's happening on the first hour of ESPN two of night one is Drew McIntyre versus Jacoby 2 in an unsection match. It's gonna get crazy. It's gonna be a lot of probably weapons used. Maybe Drew McIntyre might tweet again, said he's bored at work. He might do it, he might pull that off again. But it's gonna be a crazy match. Uh, Joe, I'm gonna let you go first this time. Who you got winning this unsectioned match between Drew McIntyre and Jacob Fatu?
SPEAKER_00I want to believe so much in Jacob Fatu. I gotta give it to him, man. I gotta I love Jacob Fatu. I probably got about a two in confidence on that though.
SPEAKER_01Ooh, okay.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, putting it a two. I've got two, man. I'm pretty home. And the company gets behind him a lot. So okay. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02What you got? What you think, Q? I don't know. You was a little shocked with the two.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, because he said he got a lot of confidence, then he said two. He had a three on the vision with him.
SPEAKER_00I got a confidence in Jacob, too. I don't have confidence in creative.
SPEAKER_02Good point. Good point. We'll talk about that at night too.
SPEAKER_01Solid point. So what's it seven, six, seven matches? Yeah. I'm going. You know what they say, man. Go bigger go home. I'm going with Jacob with a five. Five. So I got six hours going to five. Yeah, I'm going with Jacob when it is because of the fact. Drew McIntyre got a movie about the family.
SPEAKER_00Hasn't he been filming that for the whole time? He said what? Hasn't he been filming that for the whole time?
SPEAKER_01Oh, I think he's supposed to miss some time.
SPEAKER_00I know they said something about the highlander reboot. He's been like working with his schedule to do that. He's gonna film that at the same time.
SPEAKER_01I didn't know he is, but I also thought he was I think he's supposed to miss some time. Not like but I think he is supposed from the last report, Matthew. I read this report probably about three weeks ago. He's so you know stuff will change. But from my understanding, he was supposed to miss some uh some amount of time. So for that reason, I'm going with Jacob. Now if he don't if he ain't missing no time, I still think I'm going with Jacob because I'm saying it helps with the art of Drew McIntyre. You ready? Drew McIntyre takes the crazy hells. Don't do nothing but build his case of everybody's out against me. And the the machine is working against me. So yeah, I'm gonna go with Jacob. Jacob with a five. I almost said seven, but it's another car, it's another match that I said seven.
SPEAKER_02So I'm gonna take it in. I got Jacob with a seven for that exact reason. Drew's Drew's got a movie. Because Drew's got a movie, he ain't gonna be there. And I don't know what they got planned for Jacobs, but I know they got plans for Jacob. Hopefully, he's gonna get into somebody's title picture after this. So I'm just gonna rock with Jacob with seven mostly because Drew has a movie. That's basically what it is for me. Drew has a movie.
SPEAKER_01Okay. I'm alone. I'm alone. I'm thinking the same thing, but it's something else that I won't give my seven to.
Women’s Tag Four Way Uncertainty
SPEAKER_02I gotcha, I got you. Uh next up, we got the women's tag team championship fair to four way. It's a little iffy right now about who may or may not be in it. I'm just gonna go with the call, what, what this, what the graphic is telling me, and I'm gonna assume that Miss Brie Bella will be uh clear to compete, but it's gonna be the champions, Lash Legends and Nia Jax, Charlotte Fleur and Alexa Bliss, Lyra and uh Bailey, and the Bella twins. Like I said, I'm right now what I was what I read, Brie Bella is not cleared. I'm assuming she's cleared. There was reports that maybe Oscar and uh Kyrie Saint sneaks in this. Who knows? But I'm just gonna go with the team that's holding the title right now. I'm gonna say they defend it. I'm gonna go with Last Legend and Nigac's. I'm gonna go with one simply because there's a bunch of people in this match. QI'll let you go next.
SPEAKER_01Okay, so here's my problem. If the Bella twins was healthy, I'm picking the Bella twins.
SPEAKER_02Uh-huh. I agree.
SPEAKER_01But if the Bella twins ain't healthy, I feel like I'm forced to pick somebody else. And I don't feel like that's fair. We need to have a we need to have a close-fired conversation about my point system. Because I want to pick the belly. I don't think I should be deductive points if I think the bella twins in, you know what I mean? I don't feel like I I don't feel like that's fair. I don't feel like that's fair. Personally, I think I should get a point if I pick two teams, but whatever. Uh because of injury. Because of injured. Um for that being the case, I'm still gonna pick the Bella twins, but I'm gonna go with a two because of the possibility that they be they're injured. If they was healthy, they it would have been a six. They would have been my six. So if I if I miss these two points, it don't hurt me too bad.
SPEAKER_02All right, how you feeling about the women's tag match, Key? I mean, Joe.
SPEAKER_00Man, I'm basically in the same boat as Q right here, man. Like if they were healthy, completely good to go, yeah, solid six, seven on them winning. I'm still going with them winning just because it's the Bella twins, and you know, they want to give them one last kind of a moment, and this seems like it for them. I'm at a four with that though. Alright. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02Uh so since you two both are assuming the bells will win will win, who do you think will get the will eat the pen to allow the bells to get that victory?
SPEAKER_01The person that be eating too many pins, Bailey.
SPEAKER_00I'm saying, thank you.
SPEAKER_01She be trying to put everybody over. Somebody need to put a uh over.
SPEAKER_00Right.
SPEAKER_02I'm hoping too many yeah, she does, she does be eating too many pins. It's I don't know what they did.
SPEAKER_01I'm just gonna say, out of all the four four horsewomen, she the one that they don't treat like a four-horsewoman. Uh Mercedes over here just getting every belt imaginable for no reason. Charlotte Fleur, if she ain't in the world championship picture, she's in the tag team championship picture. I mean um Becky, Becky's gonna Becky. She a man, she she owed a WWE every team she gets. But Bailey out here, you know, got the camps and all of that, got John Cena coming out.
SPEAKER_02Again, Snuff from WrestleMania last year.
SPEAKER_01What are we talking about? A whole certified Hall of Famer. Hey, come on, stop. But can I pick real quick? Can I pick a team? I'm not not for points, but if the Bellas is not in it, I'm going to go with uh Charlotte Fleur and the Oscar. And then you know, and it'll count as no points. But that's what I just say, Charlotte Fur gotta be with title, so it ain't right without without a title.
Becky Vs AJ And Part Timer Logic
SPEAKER_02All right. Uh speaking of four horsemen, we can talk about one of them right now. Is uh Becky Lynch will be going against AJ Lee, and this was for the women's intercontinental title. We gotta talk about the other women's mid-card title. We'll talk about that in the the next episode. But where would AJ Lee? She hasn't no, she's not. I don't know her contract status. I know she's contracted to WWE. I don't know if she's contracted to show up every week on a regular basis. She seems like a part-timer at the moment. Yeah, I don't know her contract status. She seems like a part-timer. I'm assuming Becky Lynch is gonna get this win because AJ seems like a part-timer. I don't know when she's gonna show up again. She might not show up again until Summer Swim at this point. So I got Becky Lynch. I got it with three. I'm not that confident, but I got it with three. Joe.
SPEAKER_00I agree with you on the part-timer thing. Totally. I don't feel like she's gonna be the person that shows up, you know, at every PLE or every Raw, you know, and all that kind of stuff. I feel like they're still gonna let her hold on to the title, though, just yeah, out of the popularity and the thing that she's got going, the momentum, I guess, that she's got going on right now. I'm gonna give that about a I'll give that a six.
SPEAKER_01I'm gonna use five, two, one.
SPEAKER_02Five, two, and one.
SPEAKER_01Okay. I'ma I'ma go backy with a three. I'ma go backy with a three just cause I don't. I will I want AJ to win because that means AJ is around longer. But even if she wins, she's losing it at uh the next BL because she again, she's part-time. She's gonna take this off and then she'll be back around Somerset. So so if she if she wears that Brasil Maiden, she's gonna lose it at backlash. So for that reason, I am it is today's third match is the rubber match. Yeah, I'm gonna go Becky with what I say, three.
SPEAKER_02Sorry, Becky with three.
SPEAKER_01Becky with a third. All right, Becky with a thirty.
Seth Vs Gunther And Heyman Favor
SPEAKER_02All right, guys. We are now we're at Seth Rollins versus Gunther. Let's talk about this, I guess, build for this match. Because obviously, it's a situation where two top guys who had plans, but both their plans fell through. Seth Rollins was Braun Breaker, Gunther was Ray Mysterio. Again, we'll talk about him on tomorrow's episode. Ray was like, he's not retiring me. I I fully would not have been surprised if Ray was like, I'm gonna fake this injury until he gets the back because I'm not retired to Gunther. My son's gonna retire me. But this is a situation where both men, top men that cannot be left off the wrestle mini card, didn't have anything to do. So it's like, all right, let's put them together. Now I feel like they're gonna make it work with the Paul Heyman situation. Paul Heyman's gonna owe uh Gunter a favor. We we all know what that's gonna lead to in Summerslam for Minnesota. Again, we'll talk more about that in night two with Black Lesnar. But these two men didn't have nothing to do. Well, are you guys okay with them just putting these two guys together, consuming considering what may lead a SummerSlam Q The reason I'm okay with it because it's the this is the start of the build to SummerSlam.
SPEAKER_01They are starting to build to SummerSlam for this for this marquee matchup for this marquee main event, which is what everybody is expecting. Gunther versus Brock Lesnar to retire Brock Lesnar. So I'm okay with it from that perspective. I wish I wish they would have did something. So Gunther just came out of nowhere and choked Seth Rollins up. Paul Heyman sold it, but I wish he they would have sold it a little bit differently.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. He didn't, because Gunther didn't even acknowledge acknowledge Paul.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. So maybe like, you know, Paul sitting in the back talking to somebody and you don't see who it is, and then Gunther comes out of nowhere. Something like that. I don't want the whole phone situation like they deal with coding him. I don't want that. But something something similar to let us know Paul Hane is like a masterman and he got a plan in place. So I would have rather have that doing the bill be a little bit differently. But like I said, it's the beginning of a bill to some sense.
SPEAKER_02Joe, your thoughts on this uh awkward pairing?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, when it first went down, I was I was definitely not a fan of it because I was like, I don't understand what this is, but they managed to save it with you know the Paul Haman coming in and the favor, and we all know what this is leading to, obviously, like you say. So I really liked how they did that. They saved that. But yeah, like you said, man. I mean, when it first came on, it's just like, what is this? Why is this? Like, what's what's going on here?
SPEAKER_02And but well, uh, I'm gonna go ahead and go first with my prediction. I agree with both of y'all, uh, just it was weird, but we know where it's gonna lead to. Hopefully, it puts the pieces together. But I'm going to go with Gunther. He's you know, he's hot right now, he has his character, but the main reason why I'm going with Gunther is because I believe that Gunther's gonna have a little help, not by choice. Probably I was told Braun Breaker's cleared. I believe he's gonna show up probably in a uh black hoodie and mask. They're gonna do that crap. He's probably gonna spread Seth Rollins, get help get Gunther to win so we can get off and running with the Seth Rollins versus Braun Breaker match, which who knows where they'll go to that. But hopefully they can stretch out Slim Slam or maybe money in the bank. Or actually, not money in the bank, that's way in like Yeah, it'd be it'll be backlash. It'll probably be backlash, but we'll see. But that's why I got Gunther, that's why I got Gunther with six. Again, Gunther's hot. They didn't really want Gunther to take many losses. Gunther is weird, he's in a weird space where he's above title, but you don't want him to have a title because he's doing his whole retiring people gimmick, which no, he hit a wall because he didn't have nobody retire for WrestleMania season, but let's see what he can do with Seth Rollins. This is probably gonna be match of the night, by the way, though. This right here, match of the night contender.
SPEAKER_01I agree with that. I definitely because of because both of their in-rang abilities, I agree with that. That's why I say Saturday has the potential to steal the show. Because, like, even in the women's match, the women's uh the fatal four-way for the tag team championship, you get you got Alexa Bliss, you got Charlotte, you got you got Bailey, Laura Vacura, you know what I'm saying? You got good workers, and last legend is just a phenomena herself. So yeah. And then with this match, you know what Gunther, you know what Gunther gonna do. You know what Seth Rollins can do. Same thing with Jacob and Drew. So, but with that being said, I am going to go with Gunther. I'm going Gunther. I'm going Gunther with a seven. All of it. I gotta keep track of myself.
SPEAKER_02I think what seven and five, three, two, one. Uh Joe, how you feeling about Gunther versus Seth Rollins?
SPEAKER_00Man. I don't know if it's gonna be the match of the show. I still got my hopes up for that I see title match, but it's definitely gonna be a hell of a hell of a showdown. In the end, Gunther all day. Definitely. And like you said, you know, I feel like there's gonna be some interference going on that Braunberg is gonna come back, set up a new feud for them, or rather continue their feud where it left off. I'm gonna go for an eight with that.
SPEAKER_02You mean seven? Seven? You're gonna go seven?
SPEAKER_00Sure.
Liv Vs Stephanie And Title Direction
SPEAKER_02Yeah, seven. All of it. So y'all got all of it on dumpster. Okay, I'm not mad at it. But let's move on to the women's world heavyweight championship match. Liv Morgan versus Stephanie Vikers. Sneakly, one of my favorite bills of WrestleMania, because it's just been on site. If on site was in the dictionary, it'd be these two women because that's what they've been doing. They've been seeing each other and it's been on site. And some some nasty, some nasty bumps taken by both of them, especially Liv Morgan. She had a nasty knot on her four. Oh, God. But I sneakily like this build because it's just been on site. They've just been whooping each other for each time they see each other. But I'm gonna I'm gonna go Lil Morgan with five. Personally, I feel like Stephanie Valkyrie's a little dead in the water. I don't know. She came up hot, she's been cooled off. I don't know if it's because of the injury, because she hasn't been on TV as much. But I feel she's a little dead. They need to build her back up. And I think Lil Morgan will do wonders with the world everyway title. She's a big deal to WWE, so I got Lil Morgan with five. Joe, I'll let you go next.
SPEAKER_00Lil Morgan is just on fire for the company. You know, she is an it girl for them. So, and these two are gonna put on one hell of a match. Like balls to the wall. Six.
SPEAKER_02Uh what's it? So you have uh five and one left, Joe.
SPEAKER_00Oh five.
SPEAKER_02Five for this one, all right?
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_02Cute. Liv versus Stephanie Vikier.
SPEAKER_01So both of y'all will relive.
SPEAKER_02Yep.
SPEAKER_01I am going to go the opposite direction. I am going with Stephanie. Because, like you said, the title has the situation has been kind of dry. Her title range has been kind of dry. This will give it some light. It will give her that victory that she needs. So I'm going. I'm going six. Yeah, I'm going six. I ain't confident at all, at all, at all. But whatever. You know what? Deanna's gonna win this this time.
Cody Vs Orton With McAfee Backlash
SPEAKER_02We'll see. Uh next up, we have the main event of night one, Cody Rose versus the GOAT, one of the GOATs, Randy Orton. And well, let's go ahead and talk about this bill. This bill took a weird turn. You know, I thought they was gonna just do the history between Cody and Randy. You know, they was in legacy together. You know, their boy Ted D.Bias was in there. He just got acquitted from his uh wrongdoings. But they decided to insert Pat McAfee in a big way. He's basically in Randy Orton's corner for this match. Basically, Pat's been running down the company saying he wants to wants to go back to what the At two era was, where the people were just jacked up, being toxic. Again, it took a weird turn. Not that big a fan of it. I don't dislike Pat, but Pat has been getting a lot of hate for it. Pat he even said that if Randy loses, he will leave WWE forever. It took a weird turn. Not too many people are into it. There was actually people saying that this should not main event, that uh Brock and Oba should have main event in night one. We don't got that. We got this as the main event of night one. Q, how you feeling about this weird build that they decided to go with with these two men that have a lot of history together?
SPEAKER_01I feel like the Bat Max P situation was forced. I don't feel like it was needed. I don't feel like it was creative. I feel like they was trying to I don't think of this as a push. A lot of people look at it as a push ticket situation. I don't think this was a push ticket situation. I think this was a push ESPN situation. Matt McAfee has a relationship with ESPN because his shows on ESPN. How much longer? We don't know. That's something that needs to be mod monitored. But I think this was a hey, let we need an ESPN personality. Hell, they even took they even came out to talk to Stephen A. Smith about being our own air personality. They they leaning into this ESPN world. So I don't like it. I understand it, I don't like it, and I don't agree with it because I don't think it was neat. Like it was forced down our thoughts for no apparent reason whatsoever. But I gotta kick somebody. So I don't want to pick cody. Like I don't want I really don't want to pick cody.
SPEAKER_02You don't have to. I'm gonna say, I know, I got ranny before. I'm not picking Cody.
SPEAKER_01I don't like losing. Right? And I already got a lot of risk game choices already, so I feel like I gotta go with a safe bed. That's why I'm going Cody with a four, even though I don't want to. I don't like to lose. Who wants to lose?
SPEAKER_02All right, Joe, you got a one left, so give me your thumbs up.
SPEAKER_00That's good because that's that's exactly what I need for Cody.
SPEAKER_02That's what you're saying.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, that's all I need for Cody, man. I'm going for Cody. I'm hoping my fingers are crossed that we're gonna finally see Cody turn in this match, and we can get a new fresh spin on Cody, you know, because I don't know. I feel like his character right now is just I'm tired of it.
SPEAKER_02I ain't gonna hold it.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, I'm saying it's like it's reminding me of like when you know John Cena needed to turn heel, but they didn't do it. Like he's reached that point where he's just gotten so just beat down your face, goody, goody guy, that you're like, dude, we need something new from you. We need something new.
SPEAKER_02Give us that homelander like you keep telling us.
SPEAKER_00Yes. I'm hoping for that.
SPEAKER_02So how you feeling about them inserting Pat McAfee?
SPEAKER_00Trash. That's so trash, man. I mean, I I get it from a business standpoint. Yeah, like you need it, you needed somebody from ESPN in there. They wanted somebody who can get more eyes on it from like not just from wrestling, but from like a sports perspective to get the visual, you know what I'm saying, to get the eyesight on it, and also to hopefully increase some ticket sales, which that's debatable if that worked. Yep. But I'm not a yeah, I'm saying it's like it's it doesn't look like it did. I mean, 40,000 plus 42,000 on the second night, I think. Something like that. So yeah. Yeah, not a big fan of it. Didn't feel like it needed it. It had history enough.
SPEAKER_02So um, I'm assuming both of you guys believe Jelly Roll will be making an appearance in this match somewhere somehow as well.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, because they're gonna have a uh a match at Backlash with Cody and Jelly Roll versus Randy and Pat McArthur. That's why I was like, I don't really think I don't I don't I think Randy should win, and I think it's a Randy will win, but as Joe said earlier, I don't really trust Creator, so that might be a whole swerve that it don't be a celebrity tag match or back less uh then I'm at her losing the D. And I ain't you know what I'm saying, I'm just not gonna do that. I'm just not gonna sign up for it.
Vegas Ticket Rant And Final CTA
SPEAKER_02Well, all right. Well, that would do it for our predictions for night one of WrestleMania. Uh Q, uh, he's got a captain hater in the next episode, so I'm gonna get mine in on this one. Uh this is what y'all get, WWE T K O. The ticket sales is in the toilet. This is what y'all get for going back to Las Vegas. Why'd y'all go back to Las Vegas? It's never a good idea to go to the same market back to back. Especially when the card even isn't as good as it was last year. This is what y'all get. Y'all look silly, y'all should have just kept it in New Orleans. Next year y'all go into Saudi Arabia. If y'all go, if y'all go. There was rumors talking about that. Y'all mind ain't even go. Or, and there was also rumors saying y'all don't plan on moving it, even though y'all probably should consider moving it, considering what's going on over there. Just bring it on over back to the States. I know that's a lot of money y'all losing. But no New Orleans is willing to give y'all some money. Y'all owe Indianapolis to WrestleMania. I don't know when y'all gonna do that. Y'all owe Indy one. I'm not gonna attend because them prices are too crazy. But maybe I'll come up there and go to WWE World. I just want to point out y'all y'all look silly now for going back to Las Vegas. Don't go to Las Vegas for at least another five, six years. Go to New Orleans, go to Indy. Hell, go back to LA. I heard Miami's nice this time of year. Go to Miami. But I had to get that off my chest. I was very upset that they went back to Las Vegas, getting taken it away from New Orleans. But I'm your boy Dion. Thank you guys for joining us for another episode of From My Perspective. Joe, do you have anything you want to get off your chest or promote before we uh get up out of here?
SPEAKER_00Promote our show, man. Check us out. YouTube, Spotify, Apple, Pandora, everywhere else. You might be able to pick up CDs of it at Dollar Tree. I don't know if we've got that pressed yet. It might, you know what I'm saying? Just give us some time. Give us some time. Y'all like that? Well, respectfully, you're wrong.
SPEAKER_02So yeah, I heard it here first. Respectfully, you're wrong. Again, please like, please subscribe. Leave a comment in the comment section. Tell us which nights you are looking forward to better. Night one of WrestleMania, Saturday night, or night two? Leave that in the comment section. Q, go ahead and take us home.
