Ric Flair's Last Match/Becky Lynch Shoulder Separation

today because it was a very busy weekend. As I'm sure you're all well aware, Summer SLAMO is in the books. We've got the Rick Flair's Last Match show, and I think it's pretty safe to say that was Rick Flair's last match. And if it's not, I don't know what to say about that. But we're gonna go with the presumption that that was Rick Flair's last match, so we

can do full results of both of those shows. We have got Raw coming up tonight, and of course this is the first, this is really the first I would say, Triple H show. Granted, Vince had been gone for well over a week, but Vince Vince had been booking towards SummerSlam, and they made some changes obviously at SummerSlam. Eo Sky has debuted, Dakota Kai has been rehired, Bailey has returned,

Becky Lynch has turned baby face. They're going full bore into that women's division, and it's not There were some changes, but there were also a lot of things on the show that it was Vince McMahon's vision. But the show is now over and so we have got Rudd to night, We've got SmackDown coming up on Friday. We have Nobody coming in to tear up the scripts, and things are different. How different they will be is a story we can talk about six months down the road, a year down

the road. We'll see little changes here and there, little positives, and I'm sure perhaps some negatives as well, but we'll talk about that here today. We've also got well, let's see, I watched Tom versus Lance Archer, Tom versus Jonah, Zach Saber Jr. Versus Hiroshi, Tonahashi, and uh SmackDown and Rampage.

I watched a lot of stuff this weekend. I did a lot of driving, but I'm back and ready to go, so back in a moment Wrestling Observer Live Wreck on the show, Bry now is here Wrestling Observer Live, Mike sumbur Vi also Wrestling observer dot Com. Before we get to the shows, I do want to say that on Saturday, I was watching Summer Slam and Becky Lynch took the Jaded and landed sideways it on her side, and having separated my shoulder twice wrestling, I knew immediately that was

not good. And she started grabbing her shoulder, and she was grabbing her shoulder throughout the rest of the match, and uh, we can confirm today that she did suffer a shoulder separation. I don't know the uh extent of it. There are several grades of shoulder separation. If you if you end up with the I think it's like a grade. I think it's grade three is the worst and grade

one is the least bad. Might be the other way around, but regardless, if you get the worst version, then your coat at boushey and you can't bench press the bar after months and months and months. If you get the the lowest grade, you may be able to work through it. So it depends on on how serious. She did finish the match, and she was using her arm and she was fave ring it, but she was lifting and doing

all of her spots. I'm hoping it is uh. It is an injury that she can come back from very quickly. So that's the update there on Becky Lynch. And with that out of the way, would you guys like to talk about Summer Slam or Ric Flair's last match? First? Anybody? Are you taking an instant pole, I'll take an instant poll. What do you say, Well, you don't get a vote now, because the chat just exploded. Everybody was talking about Rick

Flair's last feeling. I had a feeling. We'll talk about Summer Slam next, everybody, But yes, yesterday was Rick Flair's last match. And with the exception of the women's match, because I was busy referring my own women's match here at the house, I saw every match on the show and the under card. The under card was a solid

undercard where nobody really got a lot of time. With the exception of the h The Ray Phoenix, Bandido Laredo Kid and Black tor Roost, they did give eleven minutes and fifty seconds, and man, you never saw so many spots in eleven minute, fifty seven or fifty second match. And I'm not even saying that a bad way. It was awesome. It was by far the best thing on the show by miles. But other than that, it was

just a bunch of of shorter matches. Motor City Machine Guns beat the Wolves ten minute match, good solid match, Killer Cross beat David boy Smith Jr. Five minutes, just two big dudes dropping each other on their heads, choke finish. It was fine. Jonathan Gresham, Allen Angels to Keshta and Nick Wayne five minutes. They did everything you could do in five minutes, which is not a lot. Bryan Pillman Jr. And Brock Anderson versus Ricky Morton and Carrie Morton seven

minutes and just a lot of heat on Carrie. Ricky got the hot tag and then he uh, I think he might have got hit by by a gimmick. He would hit from behind for sure, and then brock Anderson pinned him. So Ricky Morton doing the job here. And before we go any further, I just want to mention then only eight years separates Ricky Morton and Rick Flair. For those of you that saw this show, eight years was all that separated these two men. And it's not

like Ricky Morton lived. You know what I'm saying. Ray Phoenix be Bndito Laredo kid in Black to Rouse. He hit his finish runt of all people Black to Rouse, which was quite the physical feat. Match was fantastic. Got your way to watch that one. Josh Alexander and Jacob Fatto. This match was really good and then they had a horrible finish. They went ten minutes and then dudes just ran in. Everybody booed. It was a d Q. It was the lamest finish you ever saw in your life.

Jacob Fatt two looked awesome in this match. Josh Alexander is always excellent. This was very good until this horrific finish and then uh Diamond Della's page jumped the rail and hit a diamond cutter on Matt Cardona and DDP sixty six years old. Everybody sixty six years old, which means seven years separates DDP and Rick Flair seven years. For those of you that watched this show, Briscoe's beat the Von Eric's. They got about seven minutes. It was fine.

The Briscos are fantastic, and you know Von Eric's. You know, it's the Battle of Farmers, That's what this really was. Then we had Jordan Grace meeting Diana Parazzo and Rachel Eller ring. I did not see that match. And then the main event, Rick Flair android al Low against Jay Lethal and Jeff Jarrett. And you want to see a physical specimen who could still work. Jeff Jarrett, that dude impressed me years old, and boy he was that guy can throw punches, he can move and he's not even

a regular. That's that's that's that's looks like a part timer. That's that's doing like executive work for w W. E. Let's talk about Rick the moment he came out on the ramp, God bless him. He looked about a hundred years old and he was not moving well at all,

and he did not look healthy at all. And dude, I actually made a cameo on the show that I was unaware of where I was on this show, and I was talking about what he was doing and when he was training with Jay Lethal and how impressed I was when I saw that footage and you know, he was taking bumps and he was doing spots and and it was a totally totally different Ric Flair that got in the ring on on Sunday night, and is as appalled as people are that watch that match, because Rick Flair,

I mean, when the match was over, he said to Andrade, I passed out, and uh and I think for a while he may have actually been unconscious in that match. It was it was not good and his appalled as people are, and there are a lot of people appalled

at what happened on Sunday night. The fact of the matter is if the Rick Flair that had done those training videos with Jay Lethal, if that Rick Flair, and that was not that long ago, that was like a month ago, two months ago, if that guy would have been in the ring on Sunday night, I don't think people would have been appalled. And I think honestly that if the Rick Flair that was there Sunday, if that Rick Flair had been in those training videos, I'm not

even sure this match would have ever taken place. So I know people are are very upset with, you know, Flair being allowed to go in the ring and everything like that, but I mean, honestly, if you watch those training videos, it was it was I don't want to say night and day, but it was very, very different, and what we got on Sunday night. I was terrified.

I was petrified the entire match. I was wondering why there was no one there to keep an eye on Rick Flair when he would go down and not move for extended periods of time when everybody else is doing spots in the ring. And uh, he was lifted up to the top rope for his superplex, he decided even want to take it, and so he went back down to the man j Lethal gave him a vertical suplex, and as God is my witness, he never he never

got to his feet again the entire match. Everything from that point forward was crawling and laying there, and that probably was when he passed out, as he claimed to Androide, And Uh, this has got to be the end, dude, It's got to be the end. You forgot about the fact that he was bleeding like a stuck pig. Well, yeah he did. He did bleed, which also is probably one of the reasons he was laying there like that. And he was drinking all weekend long. I'm sure there

was a drug alan dump. I'm sure he was banged up during training, but it was a long emotional weekend that then ended with the match, and there were a lot of people I know that benefited from this weekend, so you know the fact that they put the whole convention on and everything that was surrounding it, that was cool with me. I never needed to see Rick Flair back in the ring, you know, after Shawn Michaels let alone, after the deal he did with Hulk Coogan in Impact.

But that's Rick Flair. So it's one of those things where you can't stop this man from doing what he wants to do. A medical board could, but there was none that did. And we see his training for what he's been through. It was amazing, But I still didn't need to see it. But it was as simple as either ordered it or you didn't. And everything seems to

be okay coming out of it. We haven't heard anything about anything with Rick Flair, but for me, the way I was able to tolerate it because I hated watching it. I hated it. David Crockett was so happy and Doug Dillinger was there, and for a guy that grew up on all of that, that mid Atlantic Championship wrestling, that stuff, to celebrate that that that was good. The match itself, it goes down in history with what it was back in a moment Observerer Live right in the show. Brian

Eilber is here Wrestling Observer Live. Mike'snumber viv also of Wrestling Observer at dot com. Well, hey, at the end of the day, I mean there was a lot of people there and I was told that I is Keith Mitchell. Was he the the Impact guy? Keith Mitchell, Right, Keith Mitchell, Yeah, I mean confused him and Kevin Sullivan for some reason. But Keith Mitchell, he had retired and uh he actually came back to do this show. And you could you

could tell watching it. I mean it looked packed and the production looked very much like an Impact show, and you know, there were all sorts of of names from the past that were brought back and nostalgia wise, I mean I enjoyed the show. I like the nostalgia. You know, A huge fan of David Crockett. I watched all those I'm the biggest fan maybe of Dave are Yeah, and uh, hey, you know what Onraida and Jay Lethal and Jeff Jarret.

They did a great job in the match. Undertaker was there, Mick Foley was there obviously DDP because he made a run in. Uh, Dolph Ziggler is Nick Nemo was there, so they had a lot of names backstage. Jimmy Valley was there whenever saw somebody was there. So I think at the end of the day, I think, at the end of the day, Rick Flair, honest to god, I

don't think he's ever gonna wrestle again. And uh, you know, Charlotte, she was there, and she didn't put her foot down on this match, but she did put her foot down on certain things like the dive of the outside, which in hindsight, she didn't need to bother because it wasn't gonna happen. But I'm pretty sure that his family would put their foot down if he tried to do this again after I would hope, just for what everybody else

I think in the world, I don't know. Maybe look some people, I guess we're dying for a snuff filding. But this was like watching like the Walendas, like Carl Wolendo when he was old, like you know, and that didn't end well. And it's like there was part of

this where it was being and it wasn't. They weren't selling it directly this way, but when you watched the videos and everything, and you know what this guy has been through, and you think about what Rick Flair would do in a match, including blade when you have a heart that I mean, it was being sold for a lot of people on will this guy die? Or we could see news or history or whatever you'd want to call it. And it was maccabre it was. But the

flip side of watching Rick Flair my entire life. If that would have been it for Rick Flair, would he have been incredibly content with that? You see how he talks about how at this point is it was so important for my career that Vince put the wou back in. It was so important, this match was the most important of my life. This is what he is. He is never anything else besides Rick Flair, and he was he when he stopped being Rich Morgan Flair a long time ago.

This is this is what he is. So in that way, if it was going to be the end, I don't think could he have went out any other way? With his entire family, his whole wrestling family and really everything that how he looks at himself, whether for good or for a lot of times really bad. He's nature boy, Rick Flair. Well, I will say this. My my point and all of this is I don't think you can see another Rick Flair match, but I would not be

surprised that. Well. My point is Flair can finish Flair, go ahead, Flair's Flair is not going to wrestle again. But I am quite confident that Conrad is going to promote another show because you know, the Flair match, aside, the whole weekend was a big success and I think everybody did very well. And I think that he's gonna want to do this again. Will he do another show like this? Will he just do another independent show? What's

he gonna do? I have no idea, but this was to me clear and actually apparently they're During the they had all those q and a' s and uh and I think during the Q and A he jokingly asked mcfoley if he wanted to do another match, which I think would be a bad idea, But you know, I looked up and down that show, and you know, it wouldn't be the worst thing to see d DP do one more match. Dude, I saw that guy. I wouldn't

be worried about him doing another match. And you know, I'm sure there's some other guys that you know, they could, they could arrange something to do something similar to this. So I think we will see another show of this nature, But I don't think you're gonna see the Nature Boy doing a match again. And by the way, you guys can take that to the bank. You guys don't believe this. You don't believe this. You didn't believe me when I told you things to be fine with Bianca bell Air.

I told you guys this. I told you guys this in December, and nobody believed me. I told you this once you won the Royal Rumble, nobody believed me. I told you this, and WrestleMania, nobody believed me. Now she's beat Becky Lynch clean in the middle at Summer Slam in front of thirty eight thousand people. Unless you're a king that it was forty eight thousand people. Are you gonna tell me you're not doing well now? Huh? I talk about Summer Slam or do you have more to

say about the Nature Boy. I'm just amazed that you had to really ram home the bridge of Rick Flair is not gonna have a lot to get to the fact that Conrad is gonna promote another show again, No kiddning he's going to this was his fifth? Was he booked it? I mean, no kidding. Cars, We're gonna have another match, do you know what? Maybe it's gonna be Brian Alvarez his last match. Are you free? I could use an opponent. Hey listen, I have to is lay on the mat for fifteen minutes. Huh? What kind of

rules is this under? Can we wait for a g c W type of weekend and we can actually do what you want to do, a barbed wire match? No? Yeah, yeah, I mean we could actually mix things since we could, we can merge blood sport with that. What are you just talking about? How you're trying to talk to your kid out of wanting to cut himself, and now you're you want to do your only match as a barbed wire match. I I don't guess you to cut himself. As far as me cutting others, I mean, in certain cases,

I think that would be fine. That would be fine. Why don't you talk about SummerSlam right on? Bianco? But I gotta match me and John Moxley against you. Who do I want for your partner? Oh? No, I get to choose maybe Craig choose no no no, no no no no no. I anyway, Moxley is gonna hold that blade. You ain't gonna be cutting nobody. I'm gonna bring in the ripper. Hey, one of us is a lot more vain about our looks than the other is pal So if any about that match, it would be you. Okay,

let's talk about SummerSlam. So this show was really good for about an hour and a half, and then it became an old school Vince McMahon, Kevin Dunn excruciatingly along video packages, dudes coming out to fake the attendants insufferably, along ring entrances, the whole nine yards. But it started out really good, Old man River, I was so excited. I was so excited when the show started because it's the first Triple H pay per view, and literally the

show starts and Becky's music kids. They didn't have a video package, we didn't have fifteen minutes or rigmarole. It was like they got her down to the ring, then they got Bianca down to the ring, and then they had a very very good match, and they got fifteen minutes and Bianca beat her clean in the middle after going back and forth, and then when it's over Bailey's music. Kids. So Bailey comes down the aisle, and then the Code

of Sky, who had been fired, she got rehired. She comes down the aisle and then the music hits and outcomes the former EO Sharai who is now EO Sky, which, like a lot of people are furious about. But listen to everybody, this is it's some of this is a Vince thing, like when Vince gets weird about you know, I don't want anyone to be called junr okay, but I'm sure that Nick con and Stephanie they're probably the ones behind. Listen, we gotta brand these people. They all

have to have a new name. We don't want them leaving and using their w W E names somewhere else. Everybody's gonna get a new name. And EO Sharai was the Queen of the Sky right that was her gimmick, So now she's EO Sky. I don't think this is the end of the world. I don't know why everybody is up in arms about this one. You should be happy that she got immediately signed to a main roster contract and got called up the second Vince was out of there. Should be happy about that Who cares what

her name is. You could call her hot Dog Ferguson for all I care. She's on the main roster and she's gonna be wrestling. So they came out and I was like, my god, look at this. He brought back Dakota, he brought up Eo Bailey's back. Becky has turned baby face. She's a baby face again. Thank god. Bianca beat Becky and is a big, huge star like this, Women's Divisions on fire. It's the first thing to happen on SummerSlam. I was over the moon with joy. Then Logan Paul

beat the Miss in a good match fifteen minutes. And you know, Logan Paul are great at WrestleMania, but bro, he's in there with you know, Ray Mysterio and and uh. But this was a singles match with the Miss, who was not renown for his singles matches, and they he's not and they had a good match. Logan Paul beat him. He did so much impressive stuff that, believe it or not, they actually cheered Agan Paul beating the Miss. He was a baby faced. When this is over, we'll see how

long that lasts. But a good match. Give him his credit. He may not be great when it comes to your average everyday wrestling match, but when he comes to these celebrity type of deals, he is very, very good. And he did his job with Logan Paul perfectly, including getting that crowd to turn the heat back on himself more Summer Slam. After this break, everybody this commercial break to pay the bills for this national radio show, which is

called Wrestling Observer Live. Bagging the show. Ran Alba is here Wrestling Observer Live, Maxemberviti also Wrestling Observer dot com. Where were we well? Hot Dog ferguson Bonnie Lashley in Theory Man, I gotta love hate relationship with the way they book theory on this show because I'm sick of

the guy. I'm glad that he didn't win the title, but golly, holy smoke, am After after having to sit through forty five minutes of us in theory segments on every show for the last month, what was the payoff? Try out all that time up ninety minutes a week for four weeks, three sixty minutes at six uh six hours of austin theory I sat through for the last month, six hours, and what was the payoff? Well, he faced Bobby Lashly, Lashly squashed him, meet him with hurt lock

in five minutes. Then as we'll get too later during the main event, he ran out this idiot God bless a guy. But in storyline he's an idiot. This idiot sees Roman reigns down and he decides now is a great time to cash in. He runs down the ring, rocks right there. Well, Bamn kills him. He's dead. That

was the whole Austin theory gimmick on this show. In a last man standing match, all he had to do was wait till both guys were down, then run down and do that I guess, and him both in the head if he can join mid match like he was planning on doing. He could have waited to see what would have happened, but no, So I liked you know, there was the aspect of me that liked that they

didn't do anything with him on the show. There was an aspect of me that was like, God, I sat through six hours for nothing, and now there's the aspect of well, now he's still got the briefcase. They're gonna keep going. Somebody by the way, I had a great idea, which it doesn't really work because you don't actually have

to give the contract of the referee. But after the briefcase was obliterated, they were like, man, you know, Roman should get beat up and he's down and he's he's dead, and Theory goes to cash in, but he tries to open the briefcase of his jam shut because has been smashed so badly in the Last man Standing match and he can't cash in, and you're not You're not looking at the Theory Lashly thing, with the fact that Lashly didn't have to lose at any point to Austin Theory,

with the way that Theory is really happy that Bobby Lashley's the champ of the guys super Over. The fans love him exactly and it and it looked awesome with him doing the role into the ring and jumping up and then getting caught in the press lamb down into the full Nelson. I thought that was that was cool. So I have no issue with this. You're gonna have Theory cram down your throat anyway, so at least again,

I don't know, let's see how it goes tonight. They have made him look like a goofball, and yes, they made him look like less of a goofball in some ways, I guess on Sunday night, but I I if it continues on TV, they have got to be doing the thing where they're tearing him down to build him back up again, because otherwise, like tonight should be the night theory starts actually like kicking some ass and not being such a geek. Because Drew comes out there, He's a star,

Bobby Lashley's a star, Roman reigns as a star. You know, brock Leszar is a star. They're looked at his stars, even Riddle, you know Orton who was not there, but Rollins, those guys, all of them are looked at, I think in a better length than theory is. And people believe in all of those other people far more than austin theory. So at some point he's your guy in the future. You need to build stars. Let's start getting it going

and actually making this guy a serious figure. We had the Mysterios beating the judgment day in a notice qualification match when is expected Edge returned, who is not, by the way, the fiend. He returned. He helped them Stereos win. He's a baby face. And I was watching the match and he came back intought my gud with his new haircut everything like that. I was like, this guy looks exactly like d D. Penny Moose like him too, and

then Scott's my witness. I saw DDP the next day on the uh Rick Flare's Last Match show and it was uncanny. So yoga, he should be doing yoga. If that's not doing yoga now he should because it's done wonders for all d d P. Uh Pat McAfee beat Happy Corbin. It was all right. It was not a great Pat McAfee match. He was sloppy on a lot of things. It wasn't bad match at all. I mean it was you know, the match they did was was

like a you know, good match. I'd say it was pretty good, but he did he was sloppy on things, and he looked like a green wrestler as opposed to before when he was like an outsider who blew you away with how good he was. Now that he's been doing matches, now he's gonna be judged and this weapon to Logan Paul as well to the same standards of everybody else in the company. And uh, this was not

a great Pat McAfee performance here. Yeah, but to be fair for a lot of people that didn't see, that's not like this was a botch of Mania type of match because McAfee is such a great athlete he was actually able to overcome it, like you know, jumping up and he lands on his knees on the ropes, but then he's back up on his feet and the wobble when he was going to do the dive to the outside, which you know that was you know that tourists was a tourists and bandido no its tourists and uh oh

god during the pay per view where he he saved a man from breaking his neck that dive by McAfee, I wish Corbyn was a little bit more underneath him, because okay, I should uh, I should mention here very quickly that I am not one hundred percent confirming this, but since everybody is asking about it, I do have one source who was saying that, yes, Sasha and Naomi have made a deal to return, So we'll know more, i'm sure within two hours. But I'll just say I

think it's true. I'm pretty sure, but I can't say. I can't say, and if anybody you out there though, until it breaks you know, if you have any questions at all at Brian Alvarez, he loves answering questions about the boss. Don't start this stuff. We had the USO's beating the street profits and they just beat him, so I think, I think they must be splitting them up, which is a funny story, but I don't I told the story on the bright of any show. But essentially, like,

can they both go hell? Then if that's what this is about, because I would break up and both go hell, because I would rather just have them somehow break up because I want to see Angelo Dawkins with m v P. So he has somebody besides almost, and I don't think montes Ford needs anyone, And I just I would rather see it that way than have montes the way this is being framed right now, turn on Dawkins and then I don't know Dawkins is. Look, he's gotten a lot

better and I think he can be something. He's big, there's Willie an upside to him. But I would love to see him with m v P as somebody. I think that again, it helps out m v P immensely too. By just have an almost around and you can actually I can think of Dawkins and like Bobby Lashley would be something I would like to see Live more Agan versus run Da Rousey. They had like four minutes. I got their time cut. I was told because of Logan, Paul and them miss but they just it was Rhonda

putting on one arm bar after another. Live kept getting the ropes. Runna got mad. Finally she puts her in a straight arm bar and Live Morgan taps, but the referees counting run his shoulders and so even though Live Morgan tapped out before the pinfall, only the pinfall count because that's where the referee saw. So Live retained the title and then Run to beat up Live, which is a heel move. Then she beat up the baby face, which was a baby face move. So we'll find out

tonight or Friday or the referee. What I say, the baby face beating up the baby past is not a baby paste move. Well, it's a baby face reff meeting up the ref is a baby face move. But we're gonna find out tonight or Friday what the deal is with a Rousey. But I think everybody knows the WrestleMania Big Match is gonna be a Ronda Rousey versus Becky Lynch, and if Becky Lynch is going baby face round a, Rousey should be turning heel sooner rather than later. She

should just have done it anyway for sure. And then Roman Reins and brock Lessner last man standing tables chairs, a tractor, a tractor that was used as a forklift to elevate the ring, and you know, Roman Reins tumbled out of it, which led to uh, exactly one half of the people who paid for front row tickets being unable to see the rest of the match because there was a ring. It was worth it, and uh, I liked it. I mean, you know, some people didn't like it. I was, I was, I'll put it this way. Then

he really didn't like the match. I was watching with Vinnie at the time. I was very irritated watching the match because there have been an hour, with the exception of the Rhonda Rousey Live Morgan five minute match, it was an hour of videos entrances. Here comes Kane to lie about the attendance. Another video. Here's Roman Reigns taken six minutes to walk to the ring. Here's brock Lesner taking twelve minutes to drive a tractor. I'm like, bro, I'm it's hot in this room. Get the show on

the road, dude. So as I'm watching, I'm I'm irritated. But then you know, after it's over, and then you think back about what they actually did. I like the match. You know, it was fun. They did all sorts of crazy things. They're teasing that's the last time they love a wrestle. Which this is a key because I've been writing a lot and people don't like to acknowledge it. I realized we've seen this match seven times. I realized that if somebody gets hurt, y'all think they're gonna go

back to bruck Lessner and Roman Reigns. Okay, I know you all think that, but listen, Vince is gone. He's done. Okay, he's gone. They don't need to ever go back to this match again. Someone else in charge can find somebody else to face Roman Reigns or whoever. And if you don't believe me, you don't believe me. I believe that Paul Hayman, who is a really smart guy who's been around the block, I believe that he believes that this

is the last time they're ever doing a match. Because that dude took an F five through a table and he ain't doing that if he thinks in three months, are just gonna do this match again. So I think everybody believes, and I think there's actually a very good chance and we don't ever see this match again. Okay. And they pulled out all the stops, they destroyed a ringside, they killed everybody, so uh, I thought it was fun. I think we could see this match again, but not

for a few years, and not until a WrestleMania. I don't even think they'll break this one out. And if the Saudis asked for it, you know what I'm saying, I think it's better at this point the Saudi's already saw it at least once. Well you know again, if they wanted to pay for it again, Like, I wouldn't even put that one on the table because it's one of those things you have where God bless them if

their bodies don't break down. I bet you in like three years, four years, brock still looks pretty much the same. And even if he didn't, who cares it would be brock lessner if he came out there with a gigantic beer gut. But in even bigger hat. Nobody would give a crap because it's Brock. Roman is probably gonna look the same in like four years. You can go back

to it. Then there are too many other people, There are too many other things you need to do and build up, and there are far there are just a ton of other ideas out there. Romans still your champion. Brock is still Brock. Paul got lay it out, which was awesome, and the match was a spectacle, and it wasn't all that great, but it's the whole show. It was okay, but the spectacle aspect of it is what made it for me. Even with the time, even with it being along and all that stuff, it wasn't a

great wrestling show. But as far as ww egos, when you have Logan Paul and you have the mysterios winning clean and like a lot of that stuff, well I guess not clean with edge, but regardless, look, I thought it was a decent enough night if you're trying to put it up against Tokyo domes or old manias or something like that. Like I don't know what to tell you, you know, but it's it's this is w w E now and prepare for two or three celebrities if they

can fit them in on every tent pole show guaranteed. Well, that's uh, those shows we had smacked in as well, which is uh, you know, at this point, it's a lame duck show. Tom Filthy, Tom and I are gonna be up at four Pacific seven Eastern today and we'll talk about his g one matches in this week's show. It's just gonna be a pot pourri whatever we were able to watch, each of us we're gonna review. So there's no set schedule. So anyway, we'll talk about that

more for the break. Observer Live back in the show. Brand Albert is here Wrestling Observer Live. Mike simper viv also Wrestling Observer dot com ros tonight. It feels like it's gonna be hot. Hot. Yeah, the whole company feels hot right now. I'm so happy Vince's gunn Have I mentioned that? Hey, Look, it was just time, dude, it was and look and look besides all the other stuff, By the way, nobody I like more than DJ con Way on the board and on Twitter and all that stuff.

Always been a great supporter of everything I've ever done. And I see him out there and it's like he's got the same timeline you must do right now with some of the knuckleheads he has to deal with, and I think he's got to deal with people that are celebrating like everything is different, everything is changing, And no, it's not going to be it's going to be a

slow process. But at least there's something because as they showed with EO and Dakota coming back, Okay, at least you're you're gonna at least try, You're gonna at least hear some of this, and at least I'm not expecting the world. I'm not expecting w W to ever be my favorite wrestling promotion in any way. But as long as the shows are more fun and entertaining and easier to watch when they're three hours long, I'm for it.
