You're the Fantasy Sportsman Here Networks alongside for Frankie Stamvill. I am Greg Sauceman here for my favorite show of the Yeah, this is your Royal or Umbo preview, nanasypf Facts. Let's go. We're missing missing a couple of people on the day's show.
No you y, No Mike Florio, more importantly, no Jeanie Stamfile. It was too busy for us this days. That's right, done Stamfle what a job throwing up big boys? Guy getting jobs now? I asked Frank to ask his brother to take off. He said, well, it's his first week of work ever, so he can't take off, so that was fair. But he did email Frank whole list of things he wants to talk about. I can send it
to you. I mean, I haven't pulled up here. You know what's funny about this is that even in his email he put on like wrestling stick the w W expert. That's right, it's me your boy. And I didn't even play that. I'll say, you look at the email right here, that's right, it's me your boy, Jonathan Stanford. I love Johnny stand. I didn't tell him right that. That's that's just how he markets himself. So yes, I we will have Our predictions are analysis of the Royal rumble, my
brother's picks as well. We've got a lot of matches we have. This is the first ever women's Royal rumbo as well. Right, second, second, there's one last years you know, easily forgotten. We predicted we did this show last year previewing the women's Right. That's how out I am. Uh, you know, I have bad memory. He usually he usually come back around this time every year. Yeah. Yeah, it's like the three months lead up to Royal Rumble, which will be right here in our backyard at MetLife Stadium
in New Jersey. Um, yeah, so you look. I know you're pumped up. You said it's one of your favorite shows of the year. Sasamania is back. That was one of my favorite things to ever produce. Back in the back in our serious XM days, when you came in with lights off, you did the whole Sabsamania stick. You kind of had like your Dean Ambrose thing going on. You had the hood up, you had, you had the Fantasy Football Championship belt, all that going on. Give me
a fun show. It's gonna be a really fun show. Um, and I know they are wrestling fans out there, so please tune in. I want to get some calls, greaty, Like if we get a few wrestling calls, if the phones are working before four, four, three, six, seven, nine, colon, let us you know, surprise entrance final four. Whoever you think is gonna win whatever Royal Rumble moment every year, would be really good about picks this year. Yeah, they're all going to be wrong. Probably may feel really good
about them this year. What do you want to start this is as much of a learning and teaching experience kind of getting Frank caught up experience as much it is as it is us giving out our picks. Greg. So it's really up to you, man, do you already start like if you want to start with like the undercard? Do you want to start with like n x TAU. N XT is a big I'm not gonna do it X. I'm not gonna do an XT. I'm not gonna do an XT. Next isna be awesome. It's Saturday night. I'm
excited to watch it. Um. What I usually do is we gotta have trivia this weekend, as you know, and then a weeke up early at Judy's house night I watched n x T there they have problems. This is this the same weekend every single year that you do trivia, like the weekend before the Super Bowl, And we'll have your super Bowl analysis to have all week next week. We're gonna get into prop beds, player props, national anthem props, hats, gatorade,
whatever you could think of. We'll talk about the game, spreads, totals, um, everything. Because you know I have to. I have to talk this out with you. I have a Rams ticket, and now I need to heads with the New England Patriots next week and then the week after that. It's like, so for this is plus a hundred thousands and plus one million. There plus one hundred thousands and plus one million. I can't tell a lot of zeros there are. That's a lot of zero. Yeah, suppus a hundred thousand is
Donald Trump to win the Royal Rumble. I'm taking that bet, put a dollar on it. No, seems silly, It seems silly. So now this is crazy, right? Can you actually bet on wrestling? Greg? The answer, you can legitimately bet on wrestling, and you know people might find that crazy. Oh you know it's scripted. The Royal Rumble to me is a little bit different, Greg, because I feel like, as much as we think and every year we think, we know the Royal Rumble is one of these events where it
is a little more unpredictable. But yes, and no, last year wasn't unpredictable. Last year is very predictable. We we named Johnny and I named both winners. No problem. This year is a little bit less predictable. I would say you have the odds for every match. I have the odds for the Men's World. This is it's on it's an article on Newsweek. It's it's via Bovada. The odds are from Bovada, so you can legitimately bet on this. So I told you that, So Greg will give you.
Listen to Greg's bets because he's He's probably right, you know what I'm doing. But well, like I think we should throw a few out there, like the long shot. That's like, hey, throw ten dollars on the rock to win it, like play it's not actually terrible that exactly rocks not terrible. Exactly right, rocks not terrible. Okay, so I actually have a five five times odds up here. Um, let me start with n x T that we could compare.
We could compare. There's an x T. I'm not really interested in talking about that actually in this show, Like I'm usually pretty excited about x TEA, but I might as well start off with like the undercard. I'm gonna start off. I think we'll go into the rumble matches and then maybe talking about we're gonna I'm gonna start off with the pre show matches. So the cruiserweights always dressed on the pre show. Um, and they are in
a fatal four way match the Cruiser Right Championship. It's Buddy Murphy, who's the champion, who's like awesome now against Kalisto who is a face a Dao, Tommy who's a heel, and then I Curate's Zola. I have no idea, to be honest with you, Um, I don't watch this show. I don't really know much about this live right, which is the Cruiserweight programmingw Now, alright, so I asked Buddy Murphy's minus one fifties, so I go with him what
I'm looking at. They don't even have this match listed in terms of the odds, But Jonathan Stanfield's prediction is that Buddy Murphy will retain the Cruiserweight Championship. You mentioned it was. It was Buddy Murphy, Kalisto Jalis though we don't want Dano with Tommy who is kent Tommy that that might be fun and a curate title run. Yet no he's not and a curate's Za. Okay, Well, I think I'm gonna oh my brother's advice here, Yeah, I think d Murphy probably win. Who do I want to win?
The Day? Tommy was a big fan of the Day of Tommy when he was an NXC. That was cool, alright. The other two show match is the United States Championship match, where the winner is the first time I've believe in royal level history where the last year's winner is not even on the program. He's on the pre show and not He's not hurt, he's just not the storylines right now. Last year that was Shinsky Nakamura. Shinsky Nakamura is the challenger for the United States Championship and he faces Rusev.
It's very frustrating for me. Greg. This is kind of a reminder as to why I haven't been watching wrestling, partially because it's been very busy. In a fantasy football season. The NFL takes up a lot of time. Go home and work on rankings all week. You gotta look at your are ards. You've gotta make sure you know what you're gonna talk about the next day. But the booking for Sinskey Nakamara, Greg, what has happened here? You're closer
to this than I have been. What has happened over the past year with not go more like, how has he fallen? So basically he turned He'll at WrestleMania last year right, get a low blow and it didn't really work. And I don't know if it was like they didn't like his English or whatnot, but his feeling with a J styles never really took off, and after that he kind of like faded by the background. He was the US champion for a while. It was very boring. Then he lost to Russef like way too late, which is
very boring. And now these two guys who bought out a ton of imentum last year at this time face each other on the pre show. Is russe still doing his Russef da sticky? Is it still over or not? Really not nearly as much. So basically nobody cares about either one of these guys, and that's why they're on the pre shown. They separated him and eating English made no sense. Eating English is now a commentator on two or five Live Um, Russef is back with his wife
on the street, and now, yeah, that stuff. It was very frustrating me, Greg. As you know, I like to watch I I'm a fan of wrestling for the wrestling product, not as much you know, like the storylines and the acting right whatever. I like to see good matches dating back to the days that I watched you know, New Japan, Japanese wrestling. Nackamara was a super mega star there. It's just very frustrating that he came over here and had as much momentum as he has and this is this
is what he's been reduced to. Um. I believe the odds on favorite is Russev in this match? Correct? You are russef Queen. I see Russev e NUS nine five plus two fifteen. All right, well, Russa is probably gonna win. I like Nackamra, I wish you would win become the United States champion my brother has for this match, I choose Nagamora as your new US champion. Is actually happened though, Greggy, No, it's not gonna happen. No, I don't think so. I
don't see why would why would happen? Yeah, this might be a little homer this. This seems like something that that Johnny wants to happen rather than actually will happen. Um. So, yeah, I mean what do you think russe is probably gonna win? Right? I think wins? Yeah? Okay, that's the pre show. Rank who we want on the real show? Now show? That's the pre show. No, right, back on the pre show this year. Go right back on the pre show this year. What's right back doing nowadays? I don't know does been
around yet? Yeah? Around? Like? What's he around for? Mean? Jean died, he was on Rongjene, he was unraw? How was how was he received? Very positively? Really? Yeah, very positively. You let a guy leave for a couple of years and everyone forgets what he did. It's kind of how it works. They know they're done, all right. The next matchup is your tag you Don't Even Eat SmackDown Tag Team Championship match where the Bar, Shamus and Cesaro take on the MSS and Shane McMahon. We don't just set
the bar, we are the bar. Do you think they got that from the commercial and the Ford commercial? Is it Ford? I don't know who it is commercial. Did they get that from the bar or did the bar get the Bar is doing it before I saw the commercial. I think it's right to be fair. I think you're right. Yeah.
So the storyline um the Bar's latist one to me a little bit because Shane McMahon whatever reason, just won't stop wrestling, so basically that the bar itself are you know you're pure wrestlers that have been a tax team for a while now, very very good. They won the Tag team Championships couple months back. They were feuding with the USO's and the New Day as I kind of always are. These three teams are always feuding. UM and the Bar won their Tag Team Championships against one of
those teams. I don't even remember which one now, the MMS and Shane McMahon. There's a pay per view that was in Saudi Arabia called Crown Jewel, which they don't want you to remember was called Crown Jewels. Why is that? I don't know, to be honest with you, but they're kind of up. They're basically changing it to make you believe. It was called the the World Cup, but it was not so the misses in the finals a little cup, but as a hell. It was the Miss versus Dolve
Ziggler in the finals, two heels. They had the miss get quote unquote injured and name MCMANAGONI the term It's not gonna end this way and stepped up to face Dolve Ziggler in the finals. Shane then one. Despite wrestling one match, UM Shane won the World Cup and then the miss has been on a kind of a cruisde since then, saying, hey, I won two thirds of the World Cup, because there's rematches on the show. He won one thirds. We are co best in the world and
we just started tag team. And at one point there's a big rumor and maybe it'll still come to fruition that shamed it decent concept. So for a while there is a rumor that means now Shane was going to turn heel that like being the best in the world gets to his head team right now. That was the rumor for a while, and it looks like it's kind
of been dropped. Um, but they're the good guys. They're a good sane ms Convince Shane best tag team partner he does the yes a lot them is um and the Mizzen Shane will fight for the tag team titles on Sunday. All right, Well, the odds that I'm seeing here Greg and we compare could trash here. This is a little bit closer one. These are the closest odds that I've seen thus far SmackDown Tag Team Championship. The bar to retain that five. I see them as plus
one s seventy five so they are. They are the underdogs here as the champions coming in the setting underdogs the Miss and Shaming Man. I have them at minus one seventy five according to five Times here minus two heavy favorites, getting bet up the Miss and Shaming Man getting better up the Miss and Shaming Man will be your w E SmackDown Tag Team Champions. And yep, my brother, your boy can still proclaimed w X right the Miss
and Shane McMahon as your new tag team champion. Yes, so it's a it's a pretty safe battle around how greaty I think? So that's where the storylines. How much money would you lay on on the Miss and Shane McMahon to win the tag team titles? Not as much as you'd think. I'm not super confident, only because I can see I can see one of them, like Shane, like screwing up something and the Miss is like getting angry at him. They lose, and that kind of leads
towards mania between the two of them. Potentially. I don't know that's where this is headed, but that's just an idea. That's why I wouldn't like put everything I have on this one, alright, but still pretty safe, probably one of the safer things that we've seen. No, you were you were pretty, you were pretty inorous, pretty orvous. Alright, your next matchup. We'll go over to the Raw for our next matchup, and it's due to to be Raw Women's Champion Round the Rousey taking on the Boss Sasha Banks.
This is a squash match, Greg, Yes, Oh my gosh, I just saw the odds for this. Yeah, this is a squash match. So this hapen a Sasha Banks She's not so basically has been an attack boss. Sasha has been in an attack team with Bailey all year. Well that's how you know she's fallen down. Now there next month at the Elimination Chamber of pay per View and they're introducing women's tag team Championships. I heard about this. Do you think that's a good idea? Not really, Yeah,
I don't. I don't, But it's not like it's a women's thing. I just don't think that they need another championship in the women's division. So, originally scheduled for the Royal Rumbull was Charlotte versus Rhonda, the rematch which would lead to Becky versus Rhonda at Mania, But it looks like there'll be a triple between all three of them at Mania now and we'll get into that a little
later on. So Rhonda, they're kind of looking at the opponents for Ronda and then basically went with Sasha instead. Sasha put on a good match, She'll lose and that be it. So has Sasha been putting on good matches lately? Like? How has her year been pretty bad? And fall the book under rousing, I have her the guys in the morning. You have to talk about it all or I'm sorry making your rain talks about earlier this morning about Rhonda rumor Meltzer put out there about her leaving to Union.
You want to start a family, right, I'm gonna address that when we come back and how it plays into the Mania plans. Stick around round of Rousing, Tasha bangs.

Did it happened on a Royal Rumble preview? I don't remember. I don't think it anything to do with the wrestling, honest, I think it wasn't it though that like we were talking about why do wrestlers get like lathered up and stuff before they come out, and like this was always your dream,
like lathered up and do a show. It wasn't lathered up, I said, I having no problem doing it. I just did it break out a break out the baby oil or go back and watch search on YouTube breaks baby But I wonder if people could just find it. If my friends certainly seemed to find it. Greg, remember that time you were lathered in baby oil? I did remember it. Yeah, I remembered it very clearly. All right, let me give
let get the deal with Ronda Rossy so dead. Meltzer reported this week in the Wrestling Observer that Ronda Rousy I was gonna leave her duty after WrestleMania. She wants to start a family. He's been very open with starting a family, and that kind of got misconstrued a little bit by people. She assigned to THEE through and I think she's really enjoyed her time there, and I think she's gonna be an ambassador for them. I think after she's basically been on Raw every week, She's wrestled, the
house shows, she's been everywhere. So I think after Mania she takes some time off and maybe she don't start with a family and has her baby and she's gone for a while. But I think, all right, we found it. Um, she'll be back. I think she's still be under the umbrella stom appearances for them, so she made the full time schedule. I think we'll stop after WrestleMania, after the role after WrestleMania, Um, but she'll be back. That kind of deal with Ronda alright, So there you go, a
huge betting favorite in this match for this weekend. In the Royal Rumble, um my brother has Rhonda to retain the women's titles. So we'll see what happens in the Women's Royal Rumbo match and who will go on to face Rhonda later on at at WrestleMania. But yeah, Rhonda Rna is gonna win. Has she gotten better over the past year. I know when she first came up, like everyone hated her Mike skills, Like the first few matches
I saw, I was kind of in. I was like, she seems like she's doing a good job in terms of like selling like the punches, like the whole like UFC Spield like he was like flipping stephanig Man around and stuff like that. Seemed like it was good. My skills were bad. It's still bad. So a lot of it. I think she's voicing us her name in UM Immortal Kombat ro A lot of people did. We're not fans of that, Like my friends are. How come they're die
hard UM Mortal Kombat fans? Like basically, if you played video games growing up, you kind of like grew up with Mortal Kombat. Like as as young as I've been, remember combat like Taga Genesis. I was playing that and now like what it's evolved into over the years. So Ronda Rowsy is gonna voice so can you blade? Why? Why? Why is that? What? Why is that a negative? I don't know. I think the the cool thing to do
is like hate Rhonda Rowsy. Now that's a cool like how the cool thing to do was hate John Cena, which kind of always did, but he was pretty good in that. In the Blockers movie though. By the way, Jimmy Butler will see a specialist for his prey right rest Jim Ross. Jim Ross declined our trade. He didn't even Jim. He didn't encounter was right, nice man. However, he'll be in Denver for the Sixers game. He's doubtful for tomorrow night against the Nuggets, but they are optimistic
he'll play during the road trip. Now, is this an injury, greg Or? Is this an injury? It's injury like they want to keep him off the court because they better. I think it's a real injury. It's alright anyways, has to deal around to rouse he she'll retain over Sasha. Let's go. It's the safest bet so far that you see y see it in the odds to Let's go over to SmackDown woman Championship where last year's really one the winner who is Oscar will defend her championship against
the man Becky Lynch. So how did that come about? Because I know that Becky Lynch is super over right now, she's like a faue heel. She's a heels. She's supposed to be a bad guy, bad girl, but everyone likes her. She's like one of these like Kevin Owens over the past couple of years. He was supposed to be a bad person in wrestling, but everyone still like Kevin Owens.
How did Becky Lynch get to this point? I remember you showed me something that happened a few months ago where she kind of got busted up, broke her nose, and like she was still like whipping everyone's asses. She was walking through the crowd and everyone was talking about this is like her stone cold moment. I how did this come about? Great? So ultimately what happened here, Frankie
was people kind of willed Becky Um. She had a huge reaction at money in the bank, like a monstrous reaction from the crowd, and he was kind of taken
by surprise for that. So she wound up being I believe in the madun that at Summer Slam, she was supposed to fight Carmela for the Women's championship, and then there like, oh crab, we try to put Charotte on the card, So they added Charlotte to that match, and Charlotte then one said match um hinting Carmela, and Becky basically at that moment turned heels like what the hell, this is my moment and get out of SmackDown the next Tuesday and did the typical heel stuff like you
didn't appreciate me, you didn't really appreciate me. Shoot you, shoot on. Charlotte gets all these opportunities like I don't understand. The crowd just like eat it a lot. They loved her. They would continually just cheer her out of the building. And the next pay per view she beat Charlotte one on one for the title like Barren Square, and people just kept cheering her on no matter what, they remember
what they do. So that at the first ever Women's paper view w w E Evolution, Becky versus Um Charlotte was in a ball Anywhere match or No D because everyone told me it was good, so I believed voted like the match of the year last year, and it was awesome and Becky won cleanly again and at the end of the night she had like a face to face with Rhonda and that Survivor series she was gonna face Rhonda, and then you do that thing where like one of the brands, like completely invades the other brand,
and so Becky and leads smack Down into invading Raw and it was awesome because Becky, like legit really gets busted open to an elbow from Nyah Jack's, so she's just bleeding like snow cold. Wasn't that famous shot with bred Harp bleeding profusely from the face and just kicking ass like he run his ass, geting all these other women's ass. And she basically goes in the crowd like holds a belt up with blood streaming down her face,
and the crowd goes nuts right loves it. Unfortunately, the elbow was so hard you got a concussion and she wasn't clear to wrestle that Sunday, which worked out because the matter was gonna have with ROHNDO, which I was sure she would have lost, was now pushed all the
way to WrestleMania. So after that moment, do the uh turned her back face and now she's kind of been made inventing every SmackDown she had others in the main event or like the opening segment, which is obviously the two biggest segments, and the thought processes, she will actually main event Main event WrestleMania UM against Rhonda Rousey or in a triple threat with Rhonda and Charlotte. Really like that might actually happen the first time ever. So, but
the interesting thing is how did they get there? Right? Like how did they become the man? Though? Like, I know that's part of her stick, right, Like she calls herself the man, and I know she's awesome follow on social media, like whether you like wrestling or not, it's like her feud with Rhondda. I know that she's just been like clowning Ronda Rousey on social media, like making fun of the fact that like she got picked in
the face and you have so yeah. So basically she kind of like up tor Twitter game a bunch, And at some point she's like, you know what, I don't start calling myself the man because to be the man, you gotta beat the man and the old Rick Flair term. So is it something to do with Charlotte Is that? No, She's just like listen, you know, Seth Rollins and other people have always said, like they want to be the man of the business. I want to be the man.
I want to be the man in this business. So she goes, you know, I'm not the woman, just because it's like man and woman, like the only one game, there's only one man, like John Cina was the man. I'm the man, and she had something recently, right, So yeah, So basically Cina came back and said, you know, he's like the man is back, like he's gonna call out any man in the back. She goes, He goes, I'm back, I want to call out any man in the back, and she walks as she is, you wanted the man.
The man's out here. And so they faced Andrade, who's not Alimos anymore, by the way, He's just Andrew now like Neville. Um So it goes out Andrade, Umanda and Zelena. They do a mixed tag match. Becky three Seena out of the n ray before she get he get the win. She taps partly out taps the opponent out and then he goes to shake Backy's hand. Here's that you can't see me and walks off because she's awesome, she's the man. She faces Oscar here for the SmackDown Women's Championship. I
don't really know what's gonna happen here. Oscar's Man's two forty five Becky's plus one seventy five. She can't lose cleanly, doesn't kind of kill all her momentum. She's not gonna tap out of the Oscar lock or anything. So I don't know if like Rhondda interferes or Charlotte interferes. I don't really know what happens here. It's gonna be interesting. Yeah, close odds here too, right, So the oddsmakers don't know
what's gonna happen either. You see Oscar and minus two right now, Becky Lynch at plus one fifty to win the SmackDown Women's Championship match. Here, Johnny the good Brother, Johnny Standfield that he is. He chooses Oscar to retain the women's title. So how would the gambling work, Greg? Is it based on who wins or who walks away with the title. Who wins the matchup wins the match? Who wins the match? So Becky Lynch could technically win the match but not win the title. Yeah, some kind
of disqualification, all right? Um? Yeah, the thing is, how would Oscar? How would Oscar win if it's not by submission? Do you have like something else that she does? Well? I mean, you're not gonna have you Rhonda Charlotte right, take that. I mean they could never take a fall, but they won't have her submit, but it will be would it be a clean fall or would it be like someone distracting someone distractly Rhonda comes out or Charlotte comes out of both or something. I think Becky Lynch
wins the match. I think so, but not the title. I agree. I agree with that. I agree with that. Johnny had he didn't specify. I can't text him right now. He's working. He has Oscar to retain the women's title, so it's not clear whether or not she wins or not. How do you feel about this, bet, Greg, is this one of the underdog things that you would touch or not? Really? I would touch Becky at plus one, that's what I haven't at five times phrasing, Gregg, I would I would
touch that. Yeah, and phrasing, what's your phrasing? I don't want to touch Becky Lan. I'm gonna place some money. I am a professional broadcast there, Jesus, Frank, come on, come on, all right. The SmackDown Championship Championship is Daniel Bryan defending against the phenomenal A j Styles the rumor at Mania for a J. Styles is that he's gonna face Randy Orton. Um and the rumor and there is no rumor really for who Brian's face. Yeah, there's no
rumor who Brian's gonna face. To be honest with you, Um, I've heard rumors of John Cena. I've heard rumors of Jeff Hardy, and there's a kind of the only two rumors I've heard McMann, I guess. But okay, So Daniel Bryan, I have this at minus four hundred. Daniel Bryant is the pretty big favorite here minus four hundred to retain the w W Championship match AJ Styles at plus two fifty. Greg has AJ styles stick become stale at this point because I don't know A J. Styles stick is become stale.
Daniel Bryan's new hips there hippie environmentalist thing is does he still do like the fickle thing? Does he can't fickle? Yeah? He Styles went at him this week and made the fans. What's funny about like his vegan stick is that it's real. That's something's great. He's just never kind of like played off of it as a hell right, I mean, now he's he's just kind of like being himself. So it's like the old like, it's like the old CM. The old CM punk was just like, I'm better than you.
I'm I'm straight straight edge means I'm better than you. He believed that, and Brian does believe all this Vegan This thing is there's a lot of people out there that are like this, right, not that I want to lose our you know, vegan crowd or anything. You don't you know, anyting cars right now, I'm not, I think, which is technically like a keto diet. Okay, I think. So it's like, you know, it's like if you only eat like meats and stuff, I think, probably, what have
you lost twelve pounds? I don't know myself every Sunday when I go to my parents. All right, So we'll find out next week the final tally back to Red on Friday. Franks stand weight update great, but you know there are legitimately a lot of people who are out there like, yeah, better than you because you know, I don't need meat to so Daniel Brian playing off that right now, Johnny has Daniel Bryan my brother John Sandford yea as Daniel Bryant to retaining WB title. Are you
there with him? We haven't read this. I'm gonna it will be a good match, though. Will they put on a good match? It was one of the better matches. It's a j and Bryan is just one of the better singles matches in the night, of course. Is it the best singles matching night? No, we haven't got to that yet. That's maybe the E Championship match. Okay, sorry, the Universal Title were all around here, we're we're all in,
We're it's a clean sweep on Daniel Bryant attaining. That's gonna be the I think the act of the night, outside of the rumbles, will be the Universal Championship match, which has Can you bet on whether Balard is going to come out as demon or not? You probably can somewhere. I don't. I don't have props in front of me. That's actually that's a good problem. Oh what do you what do you think? Is he gonna do it? Are we up to that match? Now? Do you want to
talk about that? Right there? No, that's not gonna want to that's it a to that right now? It's Lesner you're ragining? Why did you say his name like that?
What are you saying his name the right way? It's the reigning, defending undisputed the universal champion fuck Lessner, not Odsweiler taking on finn ballas matches originally set Um, you think Adam Gaze is the advocate for Brock Osweiler, Greg, like Adam Gaze is the Paul Hayman so I have Forrockweler is gonna be the backup quarterbacks for the Jets next year. By the way, I only have Royal. I only have Royally actual Royal room wall. I don't have rops.
I gotta find other props here. I usually can find them. Um find it during the break. We gotta break coming up, Greg, and then then I want to print it out later when we get downstairs. Um. Brock Lesner is minus three ninety five on five times facing off against finn Baler. This match was originally Brock versus Braun again, but we basically didn't want Braun to Lease to lose clue to clues to lose clean against the Brock again, so they took him out of the match or placed them the
finn Balor. This is the match we're supposed to get last Royal Rumble, but Vince did not believe that Balor was over enough to make it good. Um, so they took him out replace them with Kane and Braun, and Kane and Braun. Actually, now this year they believe Finn is over enough, and they've done a whole story where Vince doesn't believe in Finn at all. He's too small that you never get the job of John vincentent all over TV saying that it's real. Yeah, it's not like
a storyline, right, it's real. It's not like that's probably how he actually feel. Correct. So it's Brock versus Finn. Brock's minus finns plus two five. The rumor is Brock loves working with these smaller guys because they bumped them around. He throws them around. They bump a little bit. Brock also works really hard in these matches. Um. We saw it in the past with Brock versus aj Styles, which is great matches. We saw it at Survivors Series, the
Brock versus Daniel Bryan, which is a fantastic match. And then you're gonna have a great match on Sunday with Brock and Finn. Great match. How how often do you here to that when referring to brock Lesner because I feel like a lot of his matches don't go very long, Like how how long do you expect this machico, Greg? Like fifteen minutes? Max? Yeah, I mean they go about fifteen twenty minutes. Yeah, But like with these guys, it's
really good. It's always good. So do you expect demon Finnballey? No, I don't. You don't expect the demons the most one of the more checking characters they actually have, are not going to have them come out and lose. And you see in the odds right now, Finn Balor, what would you have mess plus plus? What I have Finn Balor at plus to seventy five? All right, so I see him at plus two fifty here as well brock Lesner minus four. Actually see both championship title matches Greg as
the same odds. Daniel Bryan and brock Lesner, both as the champions, both expected to retain at minus four hundred. My brother says to retain the reigning, defending undisputed Universal Heavyweight Chaming of the World. Brock I think so too. I would actually be more surprised if aj Styles wins than if Finn balor wins Um they could do like a fluke thing. I'm thinking Brock, but I'd be more surprised of a j wins and Finn. How's that John? Johnny went with you as well? No, I mean that
was his Yeah, I'll take Rock. Is it more his picks in mind? When do we come back? Two more matches left? The two royal umbles will bring him down. Get our surprise entrance? Are number one or number thirty? We'll do it all? When will we come back here? The FFS. If you're someone that needs fantasy sports advice every day, the Fantasy Sports Radio Network has you covered.

I do think the dysfunction we're seeing
in Washington's rivals the Browns of the Knicks easily. It is very, very tough to argue with that, but you can make a case for the Browns certainly over the long haul. Although the Knicks have been very dysfunctional for right around the same amount of time, the whole Phil Jackson era there was fantastic for Knicks fans. Previous to
that was the Isaiah Thomas years. I think right, the Knicks have been absolutely awful weekdays six and nine am Eastern on the Fantasy Sports networking on your popular podcast Providers told you the story in the air, right, and then the song to Rockston thank you. How when I was growing up, before I played basketball, like my weekly
rec league games, listen to this song my bedroom. This will get you pumped up, lights off obviously, and I in my mirror and do the rock like the jump and then that was how Then I walk out of the room and go leave to get basketball. And can we get a little uh, can we get a little re enactment right now? All right, all right, out a little bit on this shot again. We're gonna need to play that again, Bivona. This is uh so now we're just imagining a fifteen year old, Yeah, fifteen year old
great Susman. Rock comes out, rock Lessner comes out. You're jumping around, Grey, I'm not ready. You just jumped around backs usman looking down doing his best rock Lessner impersonation. It comes around, Okay, still jump into it as rock Lester getting pumped up, fifteen year old wreck league basketball. Y you hop off to anything like like rock Lesters, just jump on the apron. Now jump off like your bed or now. I just did that around there were like this, and then I would turn the lights back
on and get my bag and let leave. Would you ever scream out your own name? Scream out my own name, like like like you were coming out of the ring, you know when they when they guy would scream out Brock Lesner. Would you go Rag such smart? To be fair, Brock doesn't do that. If his manager does that, I know I would not see my own name now, but I mean, you're in your room. Some people would do
that if they were just hanging out. Now. That should be in the background right just with Greg walking out. I am the advocate for the undisputed reign, defending raining, defending undisputed Rag. You're not gonna be hired. It's the biggest He's the biggest advocation at the game. Got a feeling no problem. Now you can be from anywhere, anytime

Yeah, that's right, one tho dollars. That's my bookie dot Ag. The promo code
is f n t S why all right? So the royal rumbles, Frank, those are the women of the men. Women first, ladies first, we'll start with the women. Do we have? Do I have odds? And the women? So long, I'll make sure I have odds here, the women have odd I have odds and the women? All right, So the favorite of the women to win, Charlotte Flair and then Becky Lynch. What do you have both of those as have Charlotte and minus one seventy five, Becky at
plus two fifty all right, pretty similar. Have Charlotte Flair minus too wandered Becky Lynch at plus one fifty Okay, not not not the similar and it wouldn't be crazy. We've seen it plenty of times where someone wrestles on the earlier card. Becky Lynch obviously expected to wrestle Rhonda Rowsy. No, yes, so Becky Lynchi expected. So the main event at WrestleMania, as I said, is expected to be Becky versus Charlotte versus Rhonda. Now, um, the question becomes how they get there.
So one thought is that Becky and Charlotte could both win the Rumble, like both go at the same time. Another thought is that Charlotte wins the Rumble and then let's say Becky faces Rondo one on one next month, and if she wins, she gets into the main event type of thing, or Charlotte faces Round the next month. If she wins, she gets in you know something like that. Those are the cold of options, um that you're seeing.
Charlotte was not in the Rumble last year. Becky Lynch came out, I believe is the number one or number two last year. So those are the heavy favorites. I think they're the right favorites. Is there anybody else you think can possibly win? Frank probably not based on these odds like, I'm not close as close to it as
you are, obviously, Greg. I will say this my brother's final four that he has for the Women's Royal Rumble, and you let me know if if anything is really out of whack here Charlotte, Becky, Lynch and Ramon and Carmela as the final four, someone like ember Moon have like an I think I think Evermon is a good showing. I'm going to actually predict that ember Moon is the first person in the rumbolda ember Moon. Ember Moon is at plus sixteen hundred to win the World Rumble. Now
there's a chance that they could. There is a chance anyone has a legit. So here's why I'll say ember Moon has a shot because I think there's no possibility that I, Charlotte and Becky like eliminated each other. The ember Moon can be left standing and face Oscar that WrestleMania for the SmackDown Woman Championship. Okay, I think that's possible they eliminated each other, all right, that could happen. So I think ever Moon actually a good dark horse.
I see her at plus two thousand years are plus six? Would you throw that? I would like why not why not. Yeah, that's that's your long shot. That's I think that makes a lot of sense. My brother actually had Ember Moon last longest in the Yeah, so I agree with that. So I think everer Moon. Like I said, I think Ember Moons will be the first person out. Has her first year been I'm a good showing in year one, so she's like her whole stick. I think it's Yeah,
I think it's she's cool. She's been presented as a big as a big player, she hasn't really gotten a big time feud yet. She's been presented, she's been pushed, well, she's been protected. Well all right, So what you actually mentioned earlier on is who my brother has to win. He has a tie between Charlotte Bacon, like they both exit the ring at the same time kind of thing. What would happen then? From like a gambling perspective, can you can you bet on like tie? I don't know.
I don't know. I don't know either, so everdict Ember Moon is the first out of predict So maybe don't bet on like any of the people who are big favorites, but like just throw a little bit on Ember Moon to potentially I don't know, surprising people. Um. He also has shanea Basiler as an n x T surprise intern here she was the champions, both were in the room
will last year. Um so if she's going by that logic, that's why she hadn't he predict it will be in it and like returning person who you don't really expect to being like a surprise intern as a lead. Yeah, I mean that's that's always fair. Um, I guess, say a Trician leader both being in it. Um. Yeah, I mean that's so I'm fine with that anything else in the women's world. Rumble, Greg, Well, what's your actual prediction?
My prediction is Charlotte wins. Charlotte win chart Square and then maybe we get the Becky Lynch max next month and then it turns into a triple threat my prodi Charol, Do you actually think that's what happens at WrestleMania that headlines WrestleMania first ever women's headline between Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Rhonda Rousing? Yeah? Who when's that Lynch? Yeah? Yeah? My final four I think will be Charlotte, Ember, Alexa Bliss,
and U and Natty. You don't even think Becky Lynch is gonna if she gets in the rumbles, she can't lose. I don't think she'd be in the rumble, all right, she's in the rumbles, you win. If she's in, she's not, she won't this yeah person as well? Do they actually have thirty people? I believe there are twenty three confirmed women entrance right now? There be seven people, so that will be seven means seven um surprises or n x
T women. Carmelo's number thirty? Yeah, I see here? Yeah, so there was Carmella and Ramon Italia, Sasha Banks Bailey will be riot, Sarah Logan Morgan of them, all right, just trust me, all right, I trust you. Let's move on to the man, shall we? Of the main event or necessarily the men's the Men's Royal Rumble. The favorite at plus one seventy is Seth freaking Rollins. The next two favorites are Drew McIntyre and Braun Stroman, both at plus four hundred, with John Cena being a plus eight hundred.
John Cena plus eight hundred. Now he's dealing with an injury, right right, is that kfeve injury or it's not real? Yeah, it's not real. They're kind of like setting everyone up to believe Eve that he's not gonna be any but he probably will. Um. The rumor was that John Cena that he was in the phase Laras Sullivan and WrestleMania, and that Laras Sullivan would take him out with Lars
Sullivan's like a feeling that big doof in n XC. Yes, yes, but unfortunately he has some personal issues where he has some anxiety and before he supposed to debut, So before you're supposed to debut on raw, feel he evidently didn't show up or left early or something that happened, so that it's a question if this match will still happen to WrestleMania. Um, that's the rumor now with John Cena put him over and WrestleMania. If they were to wrestle Wrastle,
I'm sure he would, John would put him over. He's kind of like on his way out right, like he's doing what The Rock did, like transitioning more into acting. Yeah, he's not like a full time guy, no, I mean he's right, he's rarely at at raw or back down these days. Alright, So already through my my brother's thoughts here Andrey number one, he has seth Rollins and number two he has ANDRAWI I love the Andratti call at
one or two. I think it's a great call. I don't think Seth Rollins comes out one, um coming out one. I can see it being like feud with like Ray Mysterio or something. Yeah, they've been feuding, but I think they don't want to say that for a little bit later. But I don't. I usually think they do one raw one SmackDown at one and two. So I agree with andra a as number one or number two. The other person I'll say from raw, it's gotta be uh. I'll say Elias who wants to walk? I'll say Elias is
one in two. He's still kind of over or not really, he's pretty over all right to eliminate the most people, he has Drew mcutire. Quickest elimination Bobby Lashley. Really, I don't like that. I don't know. I don't know what the logic is behind what's going if you mean if he made that the other way. I think that McIntyre gets the most of the nations. I'll agree with that.
The quickest elimination will be Leo Rush, Leo Rush. I used to watch Leo Rush back in his Ring of Honor days when he was like it was like the up and coming tournament kind of thing. So you don't like him. He's just kind of like a smaller guy, right, Well he's Bobby lash he's manager. Really yeah? Does he wrestles? Um? The final four? He has here, Seth Rawlins, Drew McIntyre, Mean Ambrose and Randy Jordan. Okay, I will final four. I will go with Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, Braun Stroman
and Um and Jeff Hardy. Jeff Hardy Really yeah? What's why is that he's plus five thousand to win the row? That's my sneaky better of the night, Greg, sneaky better the week, Jeff Hardy? Is there actually a chancity wins? Yeah? Because I think he can faced Daniel Bryan WrestleMania. They do they feud? Nope? Are He's not eating with anybody right now outside of Jeff Hardy, Greg. Some of these names that you just kind of see, like the Rock is the Rock gonna be in it? I think the
chance Rock would have been in it. Roman? Uh, what's Roman rains to win this thing? He's not. I don't even see him on boy's interesting one, but he's still he's dealing with right, but maybe he's help enough come back and he wins. Maybe. Now do you think people would cheer? They cheer him, right, absolutely, then he get boot WrestleMania but be cheered. Chase Field worst odds to
win this Exavier Woods at plus ten thousand. That's what I'm seeing here, Greg, all right, so you don't expect the Rock to be in it unless Roman rains somehow in it. But then you have two big surprises, um for the indie crowd that might be listening to Greg. Anny Omega is Keny Omega in the Royal Rumble? No, no, no, no no, it's just not ha no chance everyone. You know, if you see people wearing Bullet Club shirts, you see people wearing Kenny Omega shirts. This is a guy who
has been crushing it. They're banning a w shirts from the from all the new events. Are they allowed to do that? Guess? And it's kind of like a freedom of now I think on TV or you be in there, they can ban you or something. It seems a little s a w F. Who's so what about what about soft? Are you gonna be in it? There? Any chance. What's his name again? And is he gonna be there? And the last time we saw him he was getting escorted out of the building. Greg, that's not gonna happen, all right,
So my brother has seth Rons winning it. Yeah, he's a heavy favorite. He's the he is the heavy favorite. Is it one of those things where you feel good enough that seth Rons is gonna win it that you would actually bet on it? No? Plus one thirty and what do you have? Stroke in at? That's what I like? You like that right? Because I think they basically they took Brock out of He's my prediction. They took Braun out of the match with Brock put him in the rumble.
I think he beats up our truth is number thirty. I think he beats up our truth and enters the number third day and wins before the match. He beats up like our truths coming out or something. We're in the back and bron and Bron destroys him. Now that's broun Stroman and face at her heel nowadays face you have bron Stroman and he would go on to face who WrestleMania Rock bron Stroman and Brock Lesner. He co made event to what Greg thinks will be the first
ever women's match ending the ending WrestleMania. My brother has seth rollins. I don't really want either of those things. I'll go with the Rock just because it would be right. Not right? Who's rock Verse Brock Never It's never happened at WrestleMania. Never happened. Um do you know rock plus? Who? Who is your Who is your brother's surprise entrant? Surprise entrant? Is you know he has old person surprise entrant Kurt
Angles an XT surprise entrant ll be teen dream? I agree with both of this, Yeah, I agree with both of us. Um with that, we're gonna sign off on YouTube now Fantasy People Frenzies up next. I'm sure there'll be a lot of pro Bowl talk with Corey Parson and Jim Day Chris Venture today. No, I heard that they were gonna keep the their own WrestleMania previews preview coming up next. Maybe well, Corey likes the room, don't we talk? He we were talking rassling earlier this week
on the on the Frenzay actually heard it. There you go, so saying by on YouTube. Freendsis up next, Corey Parson, Jim Day, subscribe to our channel like rate us. I'll leave us five stars and leave a comment. I'll we go another two minutes or so here live on the air anywhere Remo questions, No, I think for this rumble,
I'm good. I was gonna just ask you, like, what's your favorite Royal Room moment, greg Or, like maybe like favorite surprise entrance that's randomly come in or I just this always whenever I think about the Rumble, this always comes to my mind, this memory always comes up. We're stone cold, is just out there like chilling on the aprons, just like waiting for people to come out, just keeps eliminating everybody. I was. Actually I was also there when
John Cena made the return. I was telling me that this morning I was for someone who doesn't really like John seen all that much. I've been around for some of his biggest milestones. I saw him beat the Rock at whatever the last WrestleMania that was in MetLife. I was there at the Royal Rumble when he made his return at MSG. I've been there for a lot of things. Do you have a favorite Royal Rumbo moment or coming back? Oh my god, Sena coming back is definitely an awesome
moment for me. The Edge one didn't work nearly as well as the end of thing a year later, I would he returned to Vice Jericho. Um, so that didn't work. I didn't love that one. Obviously, maybe eliminating the Undertaker we talked about that. That was obviously a really really cool um Rumble moment. You know what underrated rumble moment was when Roman was defending the title in the Rumble and you knew Triple Ag you could come out last you Triple huld Win, but they limited Roman second to
last and left Ambrose in there at the end. It was Ambrose versus Triple che like crap like. And I actually came up with my time off this week and I was like that little wrinkle was enough for me to be like, ah, that's awesome, and yeah, that was cool. Though I thought it was cool. I was listening to a podcast in my way and today kind of get myself caught up to wrestling. What are the chances Batissa's
in this? I don't They were talking about bat Batista potentially winning this thing and Plust four thousand, Greg, I don't see those I don't see your reason he used to be in it isn't he's in Triple H mean, doesn't need to be in the Rumble. It would be cool if he came out as his uh, what's that superhero thing that he does, so he came out of
that character, like Drags or whatever it is. I never actually saw I never I never saw Guardians of the galax I've never seen them either, but I heard their great any they saw the Avengers movie, which had like Guardians of the galag right movies. I mean, he plays like a pretty funny character. One other person that will not be in the Rumble this week Dak Swagger, he's wrestling, and Bell I think he's funny. And ballants were this weekend.
Actually it's anything Saturday, No nothing, Franks Stable, I'm Greg Sausman, Corey Parson and Jim Dare up NeXT's been great weekend. Enjoy the Rumble. We'll see you right back here on Monday, we hope.
