It is Friday night. I am the solemn monster. It is your SmackDown review. But it's not just any SmackDown review. It is the fourth of July SmackDown review. It is pandemodium outside my window right now. It's pandemodium here wherever you may be. I hope you guys are having a good fourth keeping it safe. Not the best day of the year for pets if you have dogs and cats. I don't like the fireworks either, but it's something that you gotta deal with. But thank you for hanging out
with me here on your fourth of July holiday. But you know what, you know what the best part of today is there's one thing in particular that really puts a smile on my face, and the fact that we're going to be talking about SmackDown tonight, which was not a great show. There's a fucking boring show. Not even that, it's the fact that SmackDown tonight it was the return to two hours of SmackDown. And you know what that is worth celebrating here with my flag, Happy holiday, everybody.
Two hours Smackdowns are back. Yes, the three hour era of SmackDown is dead. It is over. It was long rumored, but it has finally happened. You could tell, man, I'm celebrat. I'm in a celebratory mood here tonight. This is great. I love it. I love it. I salute two hours of SmackDown. Anybody who's upset about that, you can go piss off. Let me tell you something. Two hours of SmackDown does not a good show. Make Let me just
make that very clear here of the onset. I never said that SmackDown going back to two hours was going in and of itself to make SmackDown a great show. But you know what, I would much rather have two hours of a boring show instead of three hours of boring show. And so already SmackDown is much better than it used to be. There you go, I busted out the confetti in a while. Anyway, let's get rid of
that confetti here. Yes, we're gonna talk about SmackDown here tonight, A very run of the mill main event on a very run of the mill, phoned in episode of SmackDown. Tonight. We have the new bloodline the same as the old blood line, closing the show, putting Jacob fought to through the announced desk as the new bloodline stands tall what
else did we have on this show tonight? Well, you know what, Actually, there was one thing in particular that I really liked, which was the return of Drew McIntyre. Thank god Drew McIntyre is back. I actually thought he might miss SummerSlam. I didn't think that Drew McIntyre was going to be around for a little while. But he is back and back in time for a Saturday Night's main event match on SmackDown tonight for the first time since we saw him in a cage against Damian Priest
back in May. So that was one positive of the show. We have a Women's championship match that has been set for Evolution, which is a little over a week away, and so Tiffany Stratton has an opponent for that show. Before she gets to Jade car Gill at SummerSlam, she will have to contend with Evolution first, and they set it up in the laziest possible way. You know what, I love. I love how in NXT Shawn Michael sets up an entire tournament to determine a challenger for j C.
Jane and her NXT Women's Championship. Right, he goes through this whole rigmarole and Jordan Grace now is going to be challenging for the title. And you look at what they've done on the main roster with both women's championships on Raw with e O Sky and on SmackDown with Tiffitty Stratton, and I love how they just come out and they get to pick their opponent. They just come out and say, I'm going to defend my title against you.
I'm going to defend my title against you now on one show, I can understand it, but to do the same thing on both shows at the same time, it's a little much. But basically we have the same thing going on right now on Raw and SmackDown. I will talk about who the challenger is going to be for Tiffity Stratton, how we got there, and everything else that happened on a very very dull episode of SmackDown tonight. This is your Friday Night SmackDown review for July four,
twenty twenty five. IM the Solomn Monster. Thank you guys again for hanging out with me on a Friday night. Like and subscribe. I hope your week is going better than mine since I ended up having to dole out seventeen hundred dollars in breakwork on my car the other day. Now they want to steal another twenty one hundred from me. I will be going elsewhere to get a second opinion. But I was not expecting this news this week as I prepare to hit the road tomorrow this holiday weekend.
So I am a sad, solemn monster. But hopefully hanging out with you guys will perk me right up here. Tonight, Solo Soakoa had some car troubles himself of his own tonight SmackDown Open with the Bloodline, pulling up to the arena with the United States Champion, the brand new United States Champion because he won the title from Jacob fa
Ti in Saudi this past weekend. So he was in the backseat and he was talking about how tonight we're gonna have a celebration, when all of a sudden, Jacob Fatu showed up and he tried pulling him out through the window. And the great Tongaloa who made his return. I don't want to undersell this here. I didn't mention that yet, but yes, Tongaloa is bag. He was gone for six months and Tongaloa made his return at night
of Champions. He got out of the passenger seat of the car to go try to take care of Jacob fa Tou. He got thrown into the side of a bus. Jac Mitteo came around to go after Fa Ti who threw him into the car door was open and so he threw him into the car door. Five to two went back after Solo when all of a sudden, Nick all this shows up. Officials show up and they get him to back off. So after that that's how we
kicked off the show. And then we go to the arena and we have the King of the Ring, the number one contender for the WWE Championship, Cody Rhodes on his way out to the ring Salamaster, going to pawn the belt for a new car. Which belt I have? I have a few of them. Now I'm pawned that I inm ponded the winged eagle. The eagle is staying put. The eagle is not flying high, staying right where it is. But Cody Rhoads was on his way out to the ring.
Now this was for those who don't know, they taped SmackDown on Monday night because they wanted to give people the night off here for the holiday. So this was
taped on Monday after Rall was over. So at this point, these people in the building in Pittsburgh, who were not all that loud for the show on Monday, were already an hour three of w W so with his crown in one hand and a microphone in the other, Cody gave a shout out first to a young man named Cam who was sitting up in Club sixty six, he said,
who was battling leukemia. And with that out of the way, he said that the crown represented where we've been, and he mentioned past King of the Ring winners like Bret Hart and Booker t and Stone Cold Steve Austin. He said that it also stood for where we're headed, and he mentioned the main event of SummerSlam, him in a rematch one on one with John Cena for the undisputed
WWE Championship. And before he could go any further, Randy Orton interrupted, or i should say his music interrupted, and he made his way down to the ring, fresh off his defeat and the finals of the King of the Ring in Riod. Orton started by reminding his good friend here that for weeks he told Cody that he would not hesitate, but at Night of Champions, he had Cody dead to rights. He was setting up for the punt kick. He was all there. I mean, he got the all
clear from air traffic Control. All he had to do was launch, and he couldn't do it. He hesitated Cody, though, pulled the trigger instead, something that Orton admitted he respected. And Orton told Cody to promise him that he won't squander the opportunity to go all the way to SummerSlam and kick John seen his ass and you could see Cody,
you know, nodding his head in agreement. But before he could say anything, drew McIntyre's music kit and he made his way out for the first time since Saturday Night's main event in May May twenty fourth, I believe, he mocked Randy Orton and Cody for having beta male energy, stating that the alpha had returned. McIntyre said Orton lost the psychological battle because of Cody buttering him up for
months and then stabbing him right in the back. He then turned his attention to orton surgically repaired back, pointing out how Cody targeted the back. At Night of Champions, McIntyre mocked Orton for losing his Edge as the legend Killer, because that legend of Randy Orton was dead as far
as he was concerned. McIntyre then turned his attention to Super Cody, stating that he wanted him to win at Summer Slim because this was a match that he's been looking forward to and because he wanted to be the one to rip that title out of Cody's hands. So as McIntyre turned around, Orton delivered an RKO out of nowhere, which I mean out of nowhere, but everybody should have seen that one coming. So down goes Drew McIntyre. Orton, and Rhodes then shared a brief staredown and Orton left
the ring. It is very good to have Drew McIntyre back. He has been consistently one of the more refreshing parts of WWE programming, going back to last year and frankly even the end of twenty twenty three. You know, he's
consistently one of the best parts of television. So when he's not around, as with Kevin Owens right now, Kevin Owens hasn't been around for a few months, it's noticeable, you know, when they're not around, and Owens and McIntyre in particular, are two heels who were almost i mean, not running the same angle, but they're two heels who oftentimes would go on television and would explain their actions and it would make sense, you know, they would explain
things in a way that made you go, you know what, They're not wrong, They're not totally wrong. They made sense, and them both not being on TV, at least to me, was very noticeable. Now Owens were not going to see for a very long time. But that's why I'm very happy to have Drew back. I thought he might miss Summer Slam. The reports indicated that he was banged up and he was taking time off and anyway, so he's back.
Question is like, are we going to get a heel Randy Orton, which is where I thought we were headed. I still kind of feel like we're headed in that direction. I did float the other idea that again, Antonio wrote it to the podcast last week, and the way he laid it out it was very convincing. I am not convinced that it is the right time for Cody Roads to go heal, but if Cody was going to go heal and Orton was not the way he laid it
out I thought was very well done. I didn't get to tell one way or the other from anything they did in this segment that Orton is going heel. I mean, he had a little tense stare down with Cody, but what did he do. He came out here, he admitted that I had the chance. I hesitated. That's my fault. You took advantage, you know what. I respect that now you can better go to summer slim and kick Johnson has asked for me and not squander the opportunity that
you won by beating me. And then he dropped Drew MacIntyre, who was acting like a dick. So there was nothing that Randy Orton did or said that would indicate there's a a heel turn on the horizon, or that he is still harboring some sort of grudge against Cody for beating him in the King of the Ring final. The seed was planted. You know, they could come back to it, but nothing on this show that would hint at anything in his immediate future other than a mattredd for McIntyre.
We got footage from earlier today show. Yes, happy fourth to Zachary and everybody in the chat. We'll have people coming in as things go on, So I just want to wish everybody a happy holiday, wherever you may be.
We got footage from earlier today showing Charlotte Flair talking to Nick all This and learning that she would be in a women's tag team title qualifying match tonight against b Fab and Mechen and Alba Fire and Piper Nivid, and the winner of that match would go on to the Four Way at Evolution to challenge for the women's tag team titles. Charlotte was very confused about this whole tag team partner thing. What do you mean tag team partner? And at that point, Alexa Bliss appeared and revealed that
she was going to be Charlotte's partner. She said, I know you don't want to be friends. I'm not trying to be your friend, but do you want to win gold or not? And ultimately Charlotte reluctantly agreed and then warned her don't get him my way. Elsewhere backstage, Drew McIntyre walked up to Nick all This and demanded a match against Randy Orton. Unfortunately for him, he was informed that Orton had already left the building, but how about a match on Saturday night's main event next weekend, and
Drew said that works for him. So he went to go turn away and leave and he bumped into Jacob Fatu. They stared at each other just briefly. McIntyre left all this informed Jacob that if you wanted a shot at Solo's bloodline, he could go find a tag team partner and they can meet two members of Solo's family later on tonight on the show. So Fatu started to walk when Jimmy Usso walked up to him and offered to be his partner, and so the match was made and that ended up being our main event later on in
the show. So we had a qualifier for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match at Evolutions. So, for those who may have missed Raw on Monday night, what they are doing next Sunday at Evolution. Raquel Rodriguez, rox Sane Perez are the Women's Tag Team Champions. Roxanne has officially replaced liv Morgan is one half of the champs. The two gms got together and they decided that they would have to defend their titles against one team one set
of challengers representing each brand. So obviously Raquel and roxand are from Raw, but you would have a team from Raw, a team from SmackDown, and a team from nxteam. So this was to decide the team from SmackDown. Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss, b Fabin, Meechen and the Secret Hervists. Match got underway with Bliss, Meechen, and Niven starting off with their respective teams. Before Bliss could do anything, Flair blind tagged herself in, so already getting off to a
great start here. Meechin took out Flair out inside the ring. Nivin then took flight and took down Meechin and Bfab Alba got her turn as she jumped from the top rope wiped out Flair and Befab with a dive out to the floor, and that took us into a commercial. So they come back and Piper lands a sentan on Charlotte. A missed sentan on Meachin allowed Beefab to enter the match, and she took down Flair and Piper with kicks galore. She was doling out these spinning heel kicks like they
were nobody's business. Bfab shoved Flair into her corner, which allowed Bliss to get the tag. Bliss had Bfab set up for sister Abigail, but Miechen made the save with a kick to the side of the head. Alba Fire caught Befab off guard with a Canadian Destroyer Nivin, then connected with the boss Man Slam. There was an attempted double team moved by the Secret Hervist that got intercepted by Flair and Bliss. Flair scaled to the top rope. Now Alexa Bliss is standing on the apron. Charlotte Flair
has well, she's climbed to the top. Clearly she's setting up for a moon Salt because her back is turned. But she looks down at Alexa Bliss and she pats her on the head in a very condescending way. But when she does this, the referee says tag counts that as an official tag. Now I could pick nits here and say that Charlotte patted her on the head for a second time, which should mean that Charlotte tagged herself
back in. But that's okay, it's fine. So Charlotte came off the top of the Moon Salt to Albert M. Piper, who were laid out parallel to each other on the mat Chelsea Green jumps up on the apron, so Charlotte went over to go boot her off, not realizing that Alexa is now the legal person. So Alexa Bliss comes off with twisted Bliss to both women who were laying on the mat, and she covers Alba fire and she
wins it for her team. This was a decent enough match with the predictable finish of Charlotte and Alexa qualifying and going to evolution. I said it in my Raw review on Monday night. You know, if you go back, we talked about this, I said, figuring Charlotte and Alexa are going to qualify or be chosen to be the team for SmackDown. I think un Raw it'll be Osca and Kyrie Sane. If it's not Osca and Kyrie, then I could see the Dungeon Dolls, which is what Natty
and Maxine are calling themselves. But I'm thinking Oscar and Kyrie from NXT. My first thought was Zaria and soul Ruka. If it's not then then it could be Fatal Influence, and those are the teams that we're probably looking in addition to Raquel and Roxane. Those are the teams that we're looking at, I think for the four way at evolution. As far as the pairing with Charlotte and Alexa, I've said it multiple times over the last several weeks since they started teasing it. I like it. I like it.
I like the fact that Charlotte for a while, it won't kill her to be out of the world title picture, So for her to be doing anything other than just challenging for the championship is a good thing. And now she's out of her comfort zone because she's doing the tag team thing. She's got this reluctant pairing going on with Alexa Bliss. I think it's good for Black too, because the rumor was always that Bliss was going to be associated with the Wyatt Six. Now maybe eventually she
will be the Wyatt six. Right now, they just got nothing going on. I mean, they're doing their own thing, but there's just whatever magic was there before, it ain't there no more. And to me, if you associate Alexa Bliss in any major way with the Wyatt Six, it does more to drag her down than it does to elevate them. So it's good for her to be off on her own doing her own thing and not the spooky stuff. I like the pairing. It's an odd couple pairing.
I think it'll work, and I absolutely think they are going to end up being tag team champions at some point, and it may not be evolution, but they are absolutely going to be the women's tag team Champions. And if it helps bring out a side of Charlotte at some point that we don't ordinarily get to see, I see that as a positive. We haven't seen it yet. Charlotte
is still she's the queen and she's being herself. But if it helps pull out more of her personality, if it pulls out a side of her that we just do not get to see, I think that's a positive. Because Charlotte Flair on these shows is a very one dimensional character. If they could add a new dimension to her, if Alexic can help facilitate that, that is a plus. So I like this pairing.

Everyone is running down all of the things that have happened over the last several weeks. Phraxium offers to wrestle Androti and Ray Phoenix tonight, and nick All disapproves. As for everybody else, one member of each team would be selected or would decide who among them would be participating, but they would all link up as
partners in a match later on. In the show against the members of the Wyat Six, and all this reminds them. He says, Look, the Wyat six is here to stay, whether you like it or not. They're here to stay, and if they win their match tonight then they will be back in title contention. And so it was the Wyat Six. It was Uncle Howdy who actually wrestled. I kind of wish that he wouldn't wear the mask when he wrestles. Maybe wear it to the ring, wrestle without it,
put it back on, wear it after the match. He just wears it throughout the entire thing. But it was Uncle Howdy, Dexter Loomis, Joe Gacy and Eric Rowan against Montese Ford, Chris Saban, Johnny Gargano and Burdo Berto and Gasey. They got things going. Loomis got the tag he threw burto around. Before Gargano entered the match, Johnny tried to make peace, drawing on their history together from the way back in NXT, so quite a bit of history there actually, so he wasn't having any of it. Gargano ate a
punch instead. Uncle Howdy stepped into the ring, which led to everybody stepping into the ring. And things descended into chaos. Rowan tried to choke slam Gargano and Burto. He ended up beating stereo super kicks from Sabin and Ford. For his troubles, they sent Rowan to the outside. Rowan recovered and he tossed Ford into a superkick by Loomis, which led to a commercial break. They came back with the
Wyots working over Ford in their corner. Loomis held Ford in a submission hold, but he couldn't maintain it, so Saban got the tag, floored Loomis with a missile drop kick, and then actually worked with Gargano to attack Joe Gacy, Montes, Ford took flight to wipe out Gaysey and Loomis. Outside the ring, Burdo was looking to fly, but he got taken out by Uncle Howdy, who threw him over the top rope. Howdy had Saban where he wanted him with a urinagi and tagged in Rowan, who went on it
went on the attack. Saban started crawling inching towards Johnny Gargano for a tag, and Gargano was on the apron and Gargano was reaching out. He was trying to make the tag, but standing behind Saban, unbeknowns to Saban is Eric Rowan, and Rowan is staring at Gargano in a very menacing way. And so as Saban is almost there and reaching for the tag, Gargano pulls back and drops down off the apron. This man right here, he pulled
a sid. He pulled a sid. Rowan crushed Saban in the corner, and then delivered his iron cloth slam to give the Wyats the wing. Gargano was the one who was trying to rally the troops in the back before this match, and trying to get a whole like handshake thing going, and yet he's the one, in his partner's desperate time of need who deserts his partner, rap bastard. This was also a decent match, nothing more. It was a match. I was actually pretty bored with the show
by this point. There wasn't a whole lot that changed after this. Look. I mean, there are some things that two hours simply cannot fix. There are simply some things that two hours cannot fix. But I will always maintain I would much rather sit through a dull two hour show than adult three show. We got a Julia hype package our new United States Champion. We have two of them, although she is much more beautiful. She went back and forth between Japanese and English with subtitles. She said that
she knows the title matters. She worked hard to get here. Blue flames don't flicker, they burn everything down. No mercy, no doubt, no fear. Whoever is next step closer and feel the heat of her beautiful madness. Ah Julia Tiffany Stratton, the WWE Women's Champion, was out to the ring to make a very important announcement as it relates to her
challenger at Evolution. Stratton said that since she became the Women's Champion, she's had a target on her back, but Naya Jackson's revenge wasn't enough to stop her from becoming the last woman's standing. She turned her attention to Jade Cargill, the winner of the Queen of the Ring and the woman that she will face at SummerSlam, but only after she defeats her opponent that she will choose to face an Evolution. Stratton was interrupted by the Queen of the Ring.
Jade comes down to the ring. She talked about how she was crowned Queen by beating one of the best in Oscar. Cargill warned Stratton that she had a choice to make and if she chose wrong, Stratton might not make it to Summer Slam, but it didn't matter who Jade Mandy, Yeah, let me tell you something. Then it is bombs away outside and some of these explosions are very unnerving. I don't know how it is by you guys. I'm trying to power through it here, but I don't
think I'm gonna be getting any sleep tonight. Zachary is smitten with Julia. She is a very she is a very fine young woman. I can't say that I disagree. So anyway, she said that it didn't matter. Jade said, didn't matter because she'll beat whoever the champion is. Regardless of who it is, she will beat the champion, whoever
it is. Stratton interrupted and revealed that she had a surprise for everyone, and that surprise turned out to be the Hall of Famer, the former Women's champion right six times, seven time, I think six times, and also in the middle of her twenty fifth anniversary, Trish Stratus and the
crowd goes mild. These people did not care. They were also very tired at this point, but Trish Stratus came down to the ring and once she was in, she asked what would Evolution be without some stratisfaction, and she issued a challenge for a title match at Evolution. Stratus talked about how in her day, the women had to fight just to have a single match on the card. What is this dynamite, But now at Evolution they're going
to have a card of incredibly talented women. And Stratus gave thanks to Tiffany for letting her kids see her in the ring, but those kids of hers haven't seen their mom as a champion. Stratton said that this wouldn't be easy because this isn't the Attitude era anymore, and whether it was Stratus at Evolution or Jade at SummerSlam, the WWE would still be running on Tiffy time. There
wasn't much point in having Jada out there. I mean, she didn't really have a whole lot to say, so she just kind of stood there for most of this. As far as Trish wrestling for the title, let me just say this, Trish Stratus needs to wrestle for a title as much as Goldberg does, which is to say that neither one of them need to be wrestling for
a championship at this point. But at least here, I will say this, at least here, these two were partners earlier in the year at Elimination Chambers, so there is a connection between the two of them. But then again, you know, Goldberg had that little angle he did in Bad Blood last year with Gunther, so that's sort of the little connection between them as well. But in this case it's very clear. And this was the case with the first Evolution show as well, where we had a
bunch of legends on the show. This is their way of getting a legend in a prime spot in a title match. In this case, on the show, they were going to do the same thing with Nikki Bella against Liv Morgan or maybe even a tag team title match, and that went out the window when Liv got hurt. So they're getting a legend on the show. They have tickets to sell, right, I get it. I get why they're doing it, but it is still very lame to bring these people back for title matches in the way
that they have done them. It is so lazy the way that they I mean, think about the way they set both of these matches up, Like if you have a really good story. And you think of this in advance. You know what we're gonna bring so and so back, And there's a story to be told here about them trying to get one last run as champion and challenging for the title, and here's how we're gonna go about setting the whole thing up, and you kind of lay
it all out. It could work, right, if there's a good story to go along with it, it could work. But look at what they've done here, Like we literally nine days nine days away from Evolution, and Tiffany Stratton comes out and says, I have a surprise. I'm going to introduce the woman I'm defending my title against that evolution And out comes Trish Stratus, who we haven't seen in fucking five months because of Devolution time. So she comes out there and it's like, okay, you're gonna get
a championship match now. And then the Goldberg stuff I've already talked about how they set that whole thing up, which is just ridiculous. There's no effort behind it. It's just there's no effort. It's the bare fucking minimum. The way that they're setting these title matches up, the way they just spit them out. It's just it's insulting. It
really is. You know, for a company that loves to talk about we tell stories and everybody talks about the importance of story, and you have people that love to shit on everything. Aw does there's no story? Where's the story? Where's the story? Where are those people? Now? I don't hear from these people. Apparently this is acceptable to them. All I'm doing is calling it out. I don't hate I love Trish Stratt. I think Trish's great, and Trish and Tiffany may well end up having a really good match.
I remember Trish came back and had a really good match at Summer Slim a few years ago against Charlotte Flair. She had that great cage match with Becky Lynn. Should pay back, right, Maybe this will turn out to be a really good match too. But you got to call things out, you know. You can't you can't say, you know, okay,
this is acceptable here and it's not acceptable there. It just strikes me that we are going going into two shows on back to back nights next weekend where these title matches have been set up in a very lazy way. That's all, But in any event, this is what we're getting as the card begins to come together. At most, we'll have one more segment between these two women on SmackDown next week maybe, and then Boom Evolution will be here. We got a pre tape vignette with Solo Socoa and
his family. Solo spoke from his I guess his office you would call it, I guess, I don't know, and he introduced the newest member of his family, Taula Tonga. Yes, the former Hickuleo is indeed Tala Tonga, who stood very menacingly in the background behind him, with J. C. Matteo on one side and the great Tongaaloa on the other. Oh man, yeah, I'm sure you heard that. My god. Anyway, Solo said, Happy birthday, America from your new United States Champion.
He said, this group was nothing like a bloodline. It's way more stronger and dangerous than ever. Well, this man definitely was not an English major. He went straight into the business way more stronger. He said. These men are his MFTs, his family tree, and now his family is complete. That was the gist of the segment. Backstay, actually you might you know, you might not hear what I'm hearing.
You might not I improve the background blocking, So actually I may be hearing explosions that you guys are not. So if I seem a little put off in soar in places, that's why I may be hearing things that you're not. Backstage, Trish Stratis was walking and she bumped into Jade car Gil Boyd. This was very awkward. This was very awkward. They were just out in the ring together. Like if you watched this segment and didn't see what we just saw, you would think they were meeting for
the very first time. Here the way that Jade was smiling, Oh, Trish Stratis, It's like, nice to meet you. It's like, wait, did I just imagine what I saw? Did I dream the segment that we just saw? So Jade warned her that if she defeated Tiffany Stratton at Evolution, she would be facing her at SummerSlam, and Trish said, well, then I guess I'll be seeing you at SummerSlam. And as she left, and Jade was just watching her walk off, Naomi and bush Jade with a shot to the back
with her money in the bank briefcase. Naomi knelt down beside her and said Jade should have proceeded with caution, you know, she sounds like an evil movie villain when she after she hit her with the briefcase pursued with she sounds like something out of a cartoon. So then Naomi walked off. Nick all this rushes over. I guess he saw all of this happen. So he rushes over and he leans down to check on Jade, and Jade says she's had enough of this. She wants a match
with Naomi. She wants to get Naomi in the ring. Alda said, go to the trainer's room and we'll talk about it. And later in the show they made it official Naomi and Jade Cargill will go one on one at Evolution. Then it was the only thing worth watching really on this entire show. That came next Praxium against Androde and Ray Phoenix. So I guess this is going to be a long term thing now with Androte and Ray Phoenix as a team until they come up with
a plan for each of them. We got started with Androti and Fraser mixing it up and neither getting an advantage. Fraser dodged Androtti before making detect Axiom as Phoenix jumped into battle with a dive. All four men began to trade blows as Androti got sent out to the floor. Fraser an Axiom blasted Androtti and Phoenix with repeated suicide dives to the outside. That took us to a commercial break. Naomi needs a mustache to not you know what, the one thing of all the things you could say Naomi
needs a mustache is not one of them. Now I have that image in my head. I'll get you gadget. As she sits there stroking her stroking her cat, that's what she needs needs she needs a pet cat to
stroke on the show. See what they need to do is when they cut to Naomi in the back for like a backstage prom she should be sitting in a very tall chair with her back turn to the camera and all we see is like her arm and we see her petting her cat, and the money in the bank briefcase is sitting on the floor next to her. That's how they should shoot these Naomi promos from now on. So anyway, we got a commercial break. Phraxium kept Phoenix
grounded for a little bit. Coming out of it, Phoenix took down Axiom with a flipping DDT before Androte got the hot tag and he was a house of fire. And then it was the Eddie Guerrero Tribute Hour when Androde did the Three Amigos. Phoenix followed with a frog splash, only got a two count. Phoenix headed up top, but he was intercepted by Fraser, so we got a fight on top that saw Fraser floor Phoenix with a superplex. It was a cover by Axiom that got broken up
by Androtte. We got a second commercial break. That's how you know they got some time here because they got two commercial breaks. Fraser's Phoenix splash was dodged by Phoenix. Hey, Phoenix dodged a Phoenix splash. That's funny. Actually, how I just realized, how is that not his finish? How is that not Ray Phoenix's finish? How is it not a Phoenix splash? I don't know. I mean, it's a crazy aerial maneuver. It fits well right into his normal, you know,
group of moves. I don't know anyway, the things, the things that just come to me here as I review these fucking shows. So anyway, the Fraser Phoenix splash attempt did not hit. Androde got into the ring with Fraser, stunned in the corner, Androte crushed him with the corner Meteora. Androte had Fraser in his sights and connected with a double moon salt. You know, he leaps off the top, lands on his feet and then hits the standing moon salt. Axium broke up the pin just in time. Fraxium had
Androde caught with a Spanish fly and Phoenix splash. Combo Phoenix, It's made the last second saved by leaping onto Fraser, followed by a codebreaker on Axiom. Phoenix hit his audio Sigo kick to Axiom and then Androte delivered the message to Fraser for the win. This was fun, and they got time to They gave this match. I think, if you include the commercial breaks, about fifteen minutes on a two hour show. They were people who were telling me, you know, the few people who were very upset that
SmackDown was being scaled back to two hours. Well, I hope you enjoy. Well, you'll never see Androtti again, You'll never see Carmelo Hayes again, You'll never see Ray Phoenix again. Really, Androtti and Ray Phoenix just got fifteen minutes. They were the best thing on the entire show. By a country mile, and they need to continue to give them television time. Consistency is the key. But this was a nice shot of adrenaline from these two teams on a show that
desperately needed it. And again, I don't know how long they plan to keep these two together. It just feels like, Okay, we have nothing else for them to do, so let's just put them together. This, I mean, this is how makeshift teams come together oftentimes. Right we don't know what to do with this person, we don't know what to
do with this person. Let's put them together. And it just so happens that right now SmackDown has the better and the hotter of the two tag team divisions, so they fit right in there and they make a good team. But it just feels wrong to me for Ray Phoenix to be in a tag team with anybody other than his brother, with his brother working for the same company. And so at some point we'll get the Luca brothers.
This feels like a temporary thing until we either get that or they come up with something better for him to do. But this was fun. This was the one really truly fun thing on the entire show for me. Today's episode is sponsored by Factor. We just had our first heat wave of the summer here. I could have cooked an egg on the floor if I wanted to outside, but that would disgusting.

In the back Dammian Priest found Alistair Black Price said that
Black will take on our Truth next week. Black says that priest seems to be setting truth up and he warns that violence begets violence. Priest objects to that. The two of them exchanged words before Black walks off. And in the main event, we had Jacob Fatu and Jimmy Usso teaming up to take on the team of Solo Socoa, our brand new United States Champion and j C Matteo so CoA tagged out to Mateo right at the start
to avoid having to deal with Jacob Fatu. Mateo took the brunt to the punishment from Fa Tu and from Jimmy. Once they got Jimmy down, Solo felt confident enough to tag back into the match, and he even mocked Fa Tu's little dance that he does, you know, fa tow he he got of you know, he convulses and does that shit, so he was mocking him here. Miteo got the tag and he flattened Uso with a standing moon salt.
Jimmy made a comeback. He delivered to some and dropped to create some much needed separation, Fatu got the tag and he unleashed hell on Solo with a sentan and then followed why a splash in the corner. Fatu blasted Mateo and Solo with superkicks which left them stunned in separate corners. Fatu took both men out with consecutive hip attacks. Uso and Fatu. They flew through the ropes with dives
that took out both heels. In the ring, Solo caught Fatu with a superkick and had the Samoan spike loaded and ready to go, but Fatu planted him with an impaler DDT. Fatu then hit his Mighty Moon Salt and
he pinned the United States champion. After the match, Fatu took Solo outside and he clears off the announced desk and he superkicks Solo onto the desk and then he heads up top, but he got intercepted by Paula Tonga who showed up and he grabbed him and he threw him off the top ropes slammed him down to the mat. The Great to Bungaloa joined in on the attack on Jimmy and Mateo hit the Tour of the Islands and the family then turned their attention back to Jacob Fatu,
so Solo dropped him with a Samo and spike. Solo then ordered his men to drag Fa Tu outside and they proceeded to deliver the shield triple power bomb to him through the announced desk, which did break. You know, most weeks these tables, now they're reinforced, they don't break. But this table broke, and the show closed with Solo's family standing tall. Even as a champion, his first taste of gold on the main roster, Solo Sokoa is still a loser. Why did he have to lose in this match?
He just won the championship less than a week ago. Why was it so important to protect j C. Matteo and not have him take the losing fall and have Fa Tu pinned Solo Soko. I don't know. I don't know the answer to that. I wouldn't have done it that way, but that's what happened. A very mid main event to and a very boring show. The dead crowd didn't help. But you know what sitting through five hours of television as these people in Pittsburgh did, and what
does that equate to? About eighteen commercial breaks? Probably over the course of the night that these poor people had to sit through. I'll give him a pass on that, but yeah, no, I mean this was a very boring show. This was a very boring show. I am happy the show is back to two hours because imagine sitting through three hours of this shit. But very much A phone didn't show for the holidays is what this show felt like to me. Now, next week the wy At six
they're gonna get another tag team title, Mesh. They had one a few weeks ago. They're getting one next week against the Street Profits. Our Truth is gonna go one on one with Alistair Black and maybe the big news here, jelly Roll is going to be in Nashville on Spackdown next week. Gee, I'm sorry, I'm gonna miss that. I will not be here next Friday. You guys will have to enjoy some jelly Roll on your own. That's the lineup for SmackDown next week. Let's take a look at
the Twitter poll SmackDown from Pittsburgh. Fifty seven percent thumbs up, forty two percent thumbs down. What you people are awfully nice? You can vote at Sala Monster on Twitter. Let's get some patriotic music going here, got my flag. Here we go, celebrating two hours. Here we go very good. All right, let's take a look at your super chats and then I'll get you guys out of here. Yes, it's looking like no be the booker tonight, That's what it's looking like.
So we'll take your questions here and then we'll get you on out of here. We tried, We tried people out celebrating the holiday. I get it. I get it. Well, we're gonna start with Havili, who dropped a sixty dollars bomb here before I went live tonight. What's up, solo monster? It is the fifth of July already in Brisbane, Australia favorite Brett Hart versus Diesel match m you know, I'm gonna say, Survivor Series ninety five, they had a whole bunch of matches together. They had the King of the
Ring in ninety four. I think doesn't get enough love. That honestly would probably be my number two. But they had King of the Ring in ninety four, Royal Rumble in ninety five, Survivor Series in ninety five, the Cage match, It in Your House in ninety six. They had some good matches together, but by far the Survivor Series match where Brett won the title is their best. Also, he says, if Corey Graves didn't retire, would he have been an
NXT champion or a North American Champion? Oh, Corey would have been out of NXT by the time they introduced the North American title. Would he have been NXT champion? You know, it's hard to say. I'm gonna I'm gonna say yes. I think he would have gotten a run with it North American Champion. He would have already been on the main roster by then. So on that, I'll say no. Holiday one ninety seven, If Knight is traded to Raw, they should trade Seamus to smack down and
treat him like a top star. Given his tenure, he's been underutilized. He has been underutilized. But there's no way that they're gonna move him to smack that and push him in the way that you want them to push him. I just don't see it. But I definitely think he should be featured more often. They should get him a real story, you know, once the russev stuff plays itself out. I mean, you know, watch them put them together as a team. We got nothing else with these guys, that's
the new thing though. We'll put them together as a team death Sith. Thank you for the super chot. What do you think of a potential Dark Side of the Ring episode on Sean O'Hare two thousand and three? This guy wins has wins over Chris ben Wa and Eddie Guerrero and they close WrestleMania twenty as WWE and World Champions. And Shawn got fired and took his own life the Shan O'Hair story, he got involved in some shit in
his life that he shouldn't have. There's definitely some negative to his story and his behavior, and again thinks he was involved in and also had potential to be a much bigger star than he was. So is it worthy of Dark Side of the Ring? I mean, he wasn't a major star, but he was a television star. He was a star of the TV era, and they've done episodes on people who have far less notoriety than Sean O'Hare does, So the answer is yes, I think you
could definitely get an episode out of him. Ossie of Steele. So we have Tomatonga, Tanga Loa and Talatanga can't wait until they signed bad Luck Foulet and rename him Tonga Moa. How old is Foley now he's gonna be probably is he mid forties? Been around forever. Joseph Stewart buy Er Sell the Joker or Lex Luthor The Joker, Cripple Punk says it was bound to happen. I am crippled after all. Well, this is true. Joseph Stewart also says, who is the
bigger draw in W C W. Sting or Goldberg? Hm at his peak when he was white hot the way he was, it had to be Goldberg. But Goldberg's run on top was a lot shorter than Stings. So, I mean, it's all a matter of perspective on how you how you look at it. What are you looking for when you ask? You know, how how over someone is? Goldberg had the hotter run on top even though it was shorter. Buy or Sell Catwoman or Harley Quinn Catwoman and buy or Sell The Riddler or the Green Goblin, The Riddler,
Nick Grosso Rest in Peace. Michael Madison and Julian McMahon both gone too soon. Yeah, I saw the report earlier on Julian McMahon. That was kind of shocking. Actually, he wasn't very he wasn't very old. I mean he was was he early to mid fifties. Julian McMahon was an actor. For those who don't know, he was on that show Niptuck. I think he was one of the doctors many years ago that show Niptuck on FX. But he was in other stuff too. And yeah, I passed away. Nobody knew
he was sick. He had a private battle with cancer. They didn't say his wife didn't say what kind of cancer it was. But he just passed away on Wednesday, and the news broke today. So very sad. Trill Mexican foreh five says, I was in the hospital today and by day was kind of crappy, but Sola Monster knows how to cheer me up with the playing of Ultraboss Back to Love. Thanks Solo, You're very welcome. I hope it wasn't anything too serious that you were in the
hospital for, brother. I hope you're doing better. Holiday one ninety seven a Milk Toast episode of SmackDown. This week, the only highlight was Drew McIntyre returning not one singles match on the show, all tag matches. You know that's true. I didn't mention that, but that is true. We had the women's three way main event was a tag team match. Best match on the show was a tag team match. Very true. We have Manu Hakala. I don't drink for
religious reasons. I drink for a completely different reasons. Hey, your reasons are your reasons. Brother, ain't nobody can tell you you're wrong? Are d beats with a twenty spot? Dylan here? Just want it to update you. I'm working in the biggest match and biggest crowd of my career tomorrow, AAPW tag team titled casket match. I've promoted the hell out of it, including the best promo on my socials. That's very cool. We'll tag me in it on Twitter. I'd like to check that out and good luck. A
tag team title casket match. So do both members of a team have to end up in the same casket or is it just what? Is one member good enough? Curious how the rules work for this the Chicken. What is your opinion on Cody Rhoads playing guile? If it means John Cena holds onto the chainchampionship longer? I hate it. If it means if it has no impact on that then I have no opinion on it. I honestly have no I've never seen I know Cody Rhoades has a cameo in the New Naked Gun movie that's coming out
with Liam Neeson. I don't think I've ever seen Cody Rhods act in anything before, So I have no idea how big of a role he's gonna have in the movie. If he's gonna have dialogue, if it's gonna be a brief fight scene, I don't know what to expect. I don't really have an opinion on it one way or the other. I just hope he's not gone long enough to interfere with whatever their creative plans are. And beyond that, I just until I see it myself, I just don't
have any opinion on it. Just justter Ben's five dollars super chat. I have zero interest, zero interest in the WWE product at the moment, so I'm gonna dip, but just wanted to send some love and support solo. Thank you. Just well, certainly not after this show, I can understand. I can understand after this show, there's a fucking boring show. Randy Bubbandy, Buy, Sell, Rent, Leave on the shelf, on Michael Cole commentary partner Pat McAfee, Corey Graves, Bradshaw and Taz. Michael,
Cole and Taz were a very good team. Where would I rank them? Though? You know what, I think I might put them number one. I think I might go Cole and Taz number one on my list. Cole, Taz, Cole, Pat. I'm torn between Pat second or Corey second, because Pat does bring out a side of Cole that we really hadn't heard before. Lor He just seems genuinely happy and like he's having more fun. Too much. Pat is not a good thing. Though Pat gets on my nerves very quickly.
There are times I enjoy it, there are times I don't. That's why I don't mind Corey sitting in for him right now. And Corey is very good. So I'm a little torn on who to put number two. I'll go Cole Tas Cole, Pat, Cole, Corey and then Cole Bradshaw. Cripple Punk. What's a pirate's favorite letter? A writ of safe passage from his Majesty King Charles the Second of England. Okay, that's a statement of fact, I guess all right, Cripple Punk,
thank you groovy goose. When braun Stroman was getting pushed in the late twenty tens, a buddy of mine compared it to Luger's push. Would you say that was an apt comparison? No? I mean, I'm not sure you have to explain that comparison. I don't. I don't see the connection there. Luger, when he was at his peak, was far more popular than braun Strumman was aaron with the four ninety nine, Androtte and Zelena should be paired as heels. It would benefit both of them. Also, who do you
think seen his final match will be against dude? When they brought Androde back, I was pitching him and Zelena to be put back together as a combo, especially now that Zelena had her US title run. Like they're not gonna do anything with her, sheould be lucky if she gets into the battle Royal and Evolution. For her, it would be a great thing. For him, it would be a great thing too, I think. But he's got a good thing going now with Ray Phoenix. How long is
that gonna last? Though? Seen his final match? I don't know. I don't know. We saw him and Punk. I mean, there are people I would love to see him in the ring with one more time before it's all said and done. Him and Seamus, him and a J. I don't see any of those guys as his final opponent. Randy Orton, that's already been done. I feel like it depends on how things go at Summer Slim. It could be Cody. They could do three matches. It could be Cody. If it's not Cody, uh, you know him and Drew
McIntyre is something I wouldn't mind seeing seeing. He'm gonna win his final match? Is he gonna go out on his back? I don't know. I I'll talk about seeing him briefly on the show on Sunday as far as his retirement match and and the win and where on that. Tama Tonga super fer, Oh my god, we have Tama Tonga super fan, not Tonga low. We have Tama Tonga super fan. Does Tomatonga have a top three catchphrase in WWE history with his yeah yeah yeah noise that he makes? No,
he doesn't. It's not a catchphrase. It's a noise like if he fucking farts or belches, that's not a cat If I sit here right now and I fucking belch into this microphone. That's not my catchphrase. Holiday one ninety seven. What topic or incident would you most like to see Dark Side of the Ring cover? Next? The most Go back and check out the episode where I covered the last episode of the last season, because I listed a whole bunch of potential episodes there, so that'll give you
a better sense of what I'm hoping to see. I smoke a lot of weed dollar ninety nine. Glad that my makeshift tag team idea made it. And be the booker. You know, sometimes smoking a lot of that weed could actually help your creative juice's flow. It was a good idea. Speaking of be the booker, we are at three hundred and seventy likes. That's not going to cut it. Uh, And we got Common Pearson. This became a sound off super so Hey Common, Happy July fourth. I hope you
have a very good weekend. Where is Tala Tonga superfan? He's too new, He's too new to have a super fan? Ian Ian Gome's five dollars super chat. It's my birthday tomorrow. Any advice on how to get your thirty started off on the right foot? Yeah, don't get blackout drunk and wake up and be sick the next morning. Some people do that, you know, and their thirtieth birthday, Not that I would know anything about it, but to get it off on the right foot. The best advice I could
give you is to if you can. Everyone's situation is different, obviously, but try to spend it with friends and or family. Yeah. The older you get, birthdays get kind of like eh, you almost don't even want to celebrate them. But at that age you should go out do something. Hang out with friends, go go out to dinner somewhere, try to do something that you want to do because it's your birthday. That would be the best advice I can give you.
And happy birthday, brother, retro koh solo should leave a should leave a belichsh At the end of this week's podcast, new catchphrase it'll get over. Yeah, I don't know about that one. There are just some ideas that might sound good on paper that doesn't even sound good. And I see that we are officially at four eight on the likes, which means we are in fact going to do be the Booker. How about that? I didn't think we were
gonna make it. I thought everybody was out celebrating and barbecuing and lightening themselves up and lightening themselves on fire and blowing off their fingers and doing all this stuff people do on July fourth. But you guys pulled it off. Robert forty months of channel membership is what he is celebrating. Robert, I salute you, Sir's be the booker, ladies and gentlemen. It is now time to be the booker. It is now time. It is that time. It is the only time to end the week, and you do it with
a little be the booker. Deputy Dog says, barely made it okay, well, very appropriate on a night where we had all tag team matches on this show, that we start out with a tag team match. How's that sound? We start out with a hell of a tag team. Tyson Kidd and Cesorrow the former Raw Tag Team champions and Natty has been there for a long time. Tyson Kidd and Cesorrow are going to be defending those raw tag team ugly penny belts against our real set of
tag team champions. Look at those titles. Stone Cold Steve Austin and Dude Love. What kind of match you think that would be? Stone Cold Steve Austin and Dude Love against Cesorrow and Tyson Kidd. I'm here for it. Tyson Kidd is totally eating a stunner and getting pinned. But it's a great one. That's a great match. Let's keep
it rolling. Uh. We got in Women's be the booker Jamie Hater, the former aw Women's World Champion who I was very much hoping would be going to Texas next weekend to challenge Tony Storm and didn't quite work out that. Not only did it not work out that way, but she's been hurt ever since. So best wishes to her. Jamie Hayter one on one with Oh no, look who it is. It is machi Ito. Machi Ito says, go fuck yourself as she flips the double bird here to
Hikarushida machi Ito and Jamie Hater. Jamie Hayter is going to turn this girl to dust with one Hater, Aid's gotta just absolutely destroy her. But machi etail is gonna put up a fight. She's scrappy and in our main event Live, Morgan gives you her room key. Now, pick a stip Morgan tells me to pick a stipulation. Then I'm picking a damn stipulation. That's what I'm doing, taking that room key, thank you very much. All right, let's pick a stip We're getting a stipulation here for our
main event tonight. It will be a last man standing match. So now we know what kind of match it's going to be, last man standing. Be the booker has been reap Oh no, oh no, be the booker has been repossessed by the repo man. What is this? The repo man has repossessed be the booker. Game over, we get no main event. And here I was looking forward to booking a last man's standing match, but alas it has been repossessed. Nothing I can do. Those are the rules.
Nothing I can do. That's right. What's mine is mine and what's yours is mine too. That you talk about wrestling catchphrases, that's one of the all time great ones. If we were at five hundred likes, I would say, fuck it, we'll do a second round. But we're nowhere close to that. But you know what, we were two for two. We technically did have a sweep, not the sweep we were hoping for, but we had two for two.
Really good tag team match, good women's match, but we will have to wait until next week to see if we can get our main event back. That'll be on Monday night as he stole Macho Man's hat, Yes he did. Next time I am Live with you will be on Monday night for the Raw post show. Of course, Sunday will be episode nine to nineteen of the SoundOff, which will include All In Texas predictions. I'll be live on Monday. I'll be live on Wednesday for the Dynamite post show.
There will be no SmackDown review next week. I will be in Texas for a House of Glory. I will rush back to New York early the very next morning so I could be here to watch All In. And I will be live after the aw pay per view next Saturday. At some point I will have to catch up with Saturday night's main events so I could cover it on the SoundOff next weekend. But that is the schedule of events heading into what is going to be a very busy weekend. I am not covering the Great
American Bash. That card looks like asked to be honest with you, but I'm watching All In, so I'm not covering the Great American Bash, and I will be covering Evolution live, So there's a whole lot of shit going on. I'm not going to get any sleep, but that's next weekend, so just be aware of that. Bace bears two dollars super chat says Repomen Repomen, he looked like he was having a lot of fun with that gimmick. I think he enjoyed it. I think he enjoyed himself more as
Repoman than he did as Krusher Khrushchev. Just the hunch. When is Saturday Night's main event? Even it is next Saturday at eight pm on NBC, so probably as all In is ending, is when Saturday Night's main event is going to be starting. Because all In starts at three, you know that pay per view ain't going less than four hours, probably closer to five, and then I'll be live while Saturday Night's main event is on the air. So thank you. Zachary is special referee a stipulation and
be the booker, Yes it is. I think I've covered all possible stipulations and be the boar I've tried to. I'm always trying to think of a new one that maybe I missed. But there's a bunch of stipulations in there, and the Juliet with a five dollars supertat. Congrats to Chris Statlander on winning the Pro Wrestling EVE International title.
How about that She'll be entering number one in the Women's Casino Gauntlet match in Texas next weekend, so if she wins, she will earn a future world Championship match. At any time. Leopaldo Ripo man stealing a girl's bike, I remember that too. He stole a gres bike. He I think he stole a car out of someone's garage at night because the guy missed. I think he was one day late on his payment, so the Repo man went to his house and stole his car with glee.
Did I see the Brett Hart Bambam fireball segment on the Vault? I did, yes, and I could see why that never aired. That was not a great promo from Bambam. You know that fireball that was a little too close. He got all up in Brett's face with that fucking fireball. I wouldn't have taken that, and Brett put all that shit in his hair, fucking sixty five pounds of oil and grease. You get that close with a flame. That could have gone very badly, but Yeah, I had never
seen that before. They never aired that The Vault had this week. Man has been the gift that keeps on giving. Man. They posted a whole bunch of new generation stuff this week, outtakes from like vignettes and stuff I'm sure you've seen. All day long. People were sharing the clip of Vader bouncing on the trampoline and doing moon salts on the trampoline like this is the stuff that I love when it comes to The Vault, Like I live for that stuff. That's the kind of content I want to see them
pumping out. Have yourselves a great rest of your Fourth of July, Stay safe. I will see you for episode nine nineteen of The sound Off, dropping Sunday afternoon. Until then, take care,
