In short
No Contest Wrestling Podcast reacts to WWE Raw from Madison Square Garden, focusing on John Cena’s final Raw, Roman Reigns’ surprise return to set up a Survivor Series WarGames-style showdown, AJ Lee’s appearance, and other Survivor Series build moments (including Nikki Bella vs. Stephanie, Dolph Ziggler’s return, and the Last Time Is Now tournament).
Guests
O’Shea Jackson Jr. (Petty Guerrero) and T.J. Jefferson (the T-double-O, J-I-double-G). No other guest speakers are named in the transcript.
Key claims
- Raw’s ending was a major jolt: Brock Lesnar’s music, then Roman Reigns’ return, leading to a massive multi-star Survivor Series setup.
- The Blood and Guts discussion praises AEW’s first women’s Blood and Guts match and argues “anyone can take the fall,” not a torch-passing.
- AJ Lee’s backstage interaction with Rhea implies AJ will be the fifth face-team member at Survivor Series; Becky Lynch is positioned as the likely fifth heel-team member due to legal action.
Notable examples
- AEW Women’s Blood and Guts: Tecla/Sky/Julia Hart vs Tony Storm/Statlander/Willow; glass, kendo sticks, and Marina Shafir’s submission finish.
- Raw: Cena’s farewell match with Judgment Day (Dom, JD, Finn) vs Rey Mysterio and Sheamus; plus Cena’s rematch clause for Survivor Series San Diego.
- Raw: Solo’s “mystery opponent” is Dolph Ziggler (first WWE match since May 2023).
- Raw: Maxine Dupree wins the Women’s Intercontinental Championship after AJ Lee distracts Becky Lynch; Becky claims AJ didn’t have the proper “manager paperwork.”

0:32O'Shea:Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to another Wednesday episode of the No Contest Wrestling Podcast. I am the heel that you love to hate, O'Shea Jackson Jr., a.k.a. Petty Guerrero. Hey, yo, it's me. It's me. It's the T-double-O, the J-I-double-G, too jiggy, T.J. Jefferson. What up, though? Man. Boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. A whole lot is going on. We will be letting you guys know everything that you need to know going into Survivor Series. And, you know, we got to – we're going to be here next week, but we do know that it's going to be Turkey Week. So we will – it's still to be determined when we're going to be dropping our No Contest Wrestling Podcast episode.
1:23O'Shea:So we're going to be looking to get you guys another guest to take you into Survivor Series weekend. But that's next week. Yeah, but that's next week. And today we are also going to be talking about just something that's really gotten on my nerves, TJ, because we've been planting seeds and people trying to stop our shine. But we'll get to that later. I hear that you have something that you wanted to bring up. Man, this happened last Wednesday. So, you know, our pod dropped on Wednesday. So we didn't have a chance to respond or react to this, man. But I got to give a shout out to Blood and Guts last week.
1:59And Guts. Blood and Guts. That was something else, bro, last week. It was a bloody, bloody affair. The first ever women's Blood and Guts match for AEW. The ladies did their thing, man. And it truly lived up to the Blood and the Guts name. And those women put their selves on the map, so to speak. I saw the photos. Man. My goodness. Let me tell you something. It was a lot of blood. It flowed early. It flowed often, as they say. And you had your heel team, right? And that was made up of the triangle of Tecla, who I love. Sky Blue. Yeah, you love Tecla. Julia Hart. We also had Marina Shafir. We had Megan Bain.
2:42Yeah. And Mercedes Monet. You know, 13 belt at this point, Monet, I believe. Right. You know, they took on the babyface team, who was Tony Storm, Chris Statlander. We had Willow, you know, one of your personal.
2:57O'Shea:Willow, be careful. Be careful, Willow, please. One of your favorites, Mina, Shirakawa, and Harlan Cameron, and Jamie Hayter, and Minnie Monet. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Maybe Monet made an appearance in this. And, you know, you just got to give it up to these women, man. They went out there and they put it on the line. And there was some ridiculous spots in there. There was just craziness. There was blood. It was pretty much everything that I'm sure everybody wanted out of this match. You know, when you got, you know, a bed of nails and barbed wire kendo sticks and, you know, mares being blasted.
3:39Yeah, just glass. You had Tony Storm out there like Kickboxer with her hands wrapped in gauze, dipped in glue and glass. Then Marina Shafir took that a step forward and stomped her foot, the tape in her foot in some glass and kicked somebody with it. It was something else. And like I said, it was a week ago, so it's been talked about, but we haven't mentioned it. So I just got to give the women props on that. It was an amazingly bloody affair, Shay.
4:05O'Shea:How do you feel about the finish? You know, I heard that. Okay, the finish was, you wonder what was going on, because at one point, Tecla and Julia, I believe it was Julia and Tecla, or was it? Yeah, it was Julia. They climbed through. There was like a hole in the steel cage. They were able to make their way through, which, you know, most of the guys couldn't get through. Maybe Darby, maybe two days, right? Yeah. And so you're wondering what's going on. And then at one point, I forget who it was, start throwing all the face girls out of the ring at the end of the match, right? So it was essentially what was left in the ring because Statlander put Mercedes through a table.
4:43So it basically took those two out. And then at the very end of the match, you had Marina Shafir who's holding Mina in the mother's milk submission. So she's got her down while Megan Bane, at one point Mercedes bought all of her belts to the ring. Then she took like four of them or five of them and she threw them in the ring for partners to use. Yeah. So at this point, Megan Bain picks up a belt while Toni Storm is being held by Tekla, Sky, Julia. And she's being made to, forced to watch Mina, her best friend, her lover, get absolutely choked out by Marina. And then get the crap beaten out of her by Megan with these belts.
5:23And Toni had to, she had to give up, man. She was trying to save her girl. And she submitted. And that gave the Hill team the win. But it was a pretty good strategy. It made sense why they were getting the other girls out of the ring, and then they locked the cage back up so they couldn't get in. There's a roof to it. So, yeah, it was pretty smart. It was a smart play by the Hill team, and look, they got over, man. But, yeah, props to all the women in that match.
5:49O'Shea:Absolutely. Well done. And that's available on, what, you can look at those on Max. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, definitely have to check that out because whether it be WWE or AEW, when the women get an opportunity TNA as well NXT like when the women get their opportunity and especially in a situation like that where it's a first they go all out women's wrestling as a whole sometimes man fellas you gotta step up you gotta step up because the ladies are bringing it so yeah shout out to everybody involved in that now I do want to ask you because in the women's and the men's, you got Tony giving up. You got Moxley giving up.
6:37O'Shea:Which is kind of interesting, right? Arguably the two biggest stars on each side. Do you look at that as, because obviously everyone on line is going to have their things to say about it. Is that kind of a passing to the new guard situation for you? Or is it more of a just like showing that anybody can get it? I think less of a passing of a guard and more of like. Yeah, because Kyle O 'Reilly is not necessarily a new guard. And, you know, I've not been quiet about this, you know, especially on Twitter throughout the years. I'm a big Kyle O 'Reilly fan, man. So to see, and we kind of jumped ahead, but at the men's blood and guts, which was everything you would expect with Darby Allen.
7:18And, I mean, Pac threw him through a flaming table. Like, that was tough, by the way. That was a tough spot. I'll get to your question. But like looking back, like it seemed like Darby was on fire for five minutes. It was his skin. It was like I'm sitting there like somebody put up. I'm at home like I'm kind of panicked for him because he gets thrown through this table. He sits up. You can see his shorts and his back are on fire. He rolls over and I'm assuming someone would be there with an extinguisher or a blanket. It probably was five seconds, but it felt like five minutes. And it was just like fire will do that.
7:54Yeah. Right. but that was ridiculous everything that was going on in the ring and of course it ended with Kyle O 'Reilly and I showed you this right before the show he made a move on Moxley where Kyle O 'Reilly transitioned from an art bar to a heel hook to the angle lock yeah and that's how we got Moxley to to submit and tap out and I always love the the leg wrap yeah like Kyle O 'Reilly's very underrated I don't think he gets enough love. I like the kind of same thing I would say about Solo. Like Solo being funny is ridiculously funny, and it kind of takes away from the monster that Solo should be, right?
8:34Same thing with Kyle. Kyle kind of does like the goofy thing, you know, and it kind of takes away from the viciousness. So I was, like I said, I was happy to see he's the one that got the win for the team. They stood tall. And to answer your question, I don't think it's more a passing of the torch, more like you said. This just goes to show you in these type of matches in this company, anybody can take the fall. And I got to give them props for that, to have arguably two of your biggest stars be the ones who—
9:08O'Shea:And props to the stars for agreeing. Yeah, no doubt. Because we've seen wrestling a lot of times if a no go a long way. so yeah absolutely kudos to everybody involved in a match like that because at the end of the day it's for our entertainment sitting on the couch clapping our hands so shout outs to everybody involved yeah so good stuff with AEW and Blood and Guts and if you haven't seen it I suggest you check it out man because it's definitely worth watch maybe the kids don't necessarily need to see you know that I don't know but whatever though yeah hey my kids anyway That's great to hear. That's terrible.
9:50O'Shea:So next. TJ. Yeah, man. When I tell you I needed this Monday Night Raw, I needed this Monday Night Raw like just a jolt. we were talking about a shake up needs to happen like I'm starting to feel like I'm seeing the same things kind of play out notably because the vision is a little weak but a little shot at the vision you know how I do everybody but I figured you would like the vision you figured but Monday Night Raw I have always been complaining since really the Netflix move that Raw never has good endings. And not good endings as in that ending was terrible, but just like it's always heel on top.
10:47O'Shea:It just felt like it was constantly being heel on top, heel on top. But man, oh man, when I tell you the end of Raw, and we'll get to because there's some other great things that happened at the beginning of Raw, but we got to go to the moneymaker. The ending of Raw. You want to skip everything that happened in the beginning? Oh, no, we're going there. We're going there. But I'm just I know what the clicks is for right now. And we got to talk about the fact that at the end of that, I was like, this isn't even a main event. Like you got the vision coming out with, you know, their their new teammates in Logan Paul and then Drew McIntyre.
11:25O'Shea:And then I realized there's no table in the ring. This isn't like a contract signing. This isn't like a what are we doing? And then it came time for, you know, the face team. Got the Usos. Got my man CM Punk. Punk came out without the title. When Punk came out without the title, I was like, what are we doing? Who do you think you are? Jon Moxley? Why are you coming out without the title? Then the Usos. And then Cody came out without his title. And then I realized, are we just about to scrap? There's nothing going. there's no reason it's just a like face off what does that mean we really just about to scrap and so i was like all right here we go it's like no there was no rhyme or reason there was no nothing organized nothing put together you got them we start going at it i'm just like all right this is how we're gonna end raw and then punk is in the ring who's who's he being a logan because Logan is giving it to him in the corner.
12:33O'Shea:Pause. And then punk is retaliating, and then the scariest guitar riff in the business happens. That sound of an electric Tyrannosaurus Rex. That Brock Lesnar music hits. And immediately, my first thought is, I knew it. and the second thought was they're really going to pull out Roman they're really going to get Roman back like in my mind Roman said I don't want to see y 'all until Christmas I don't know how they do Christmas in Samoa but it's a specific day every year and then Brock comes out does Brock things and then you see the little the credits you saw the credits, you know, that Paul Levesque executive producer.
13:27O'Shea:So now you're thinking like, there's no way. No disrespect to Oklahoma City. But we're in New York. And I thought, there's no way they're saving Roman for Oklahoma. We gotta wait till they're in Oklahoma. And then TJ, the drums of liberation. And Roman Reigns. I'm not running to the ring. Roman not running Reigns comes walk him with the Allen Iverson sleeve on like it's 2001 comes out and Brock had a little shook on that face. Kind of looked around like oh hold on now because I don't know if people are aware back at home but in their last four meetings Roman Reigns is 4-0 against Brock Lesnar so like you know let's just put that in perspective and by the way I know on Twitter I said that Roman was 4-0 and Cody won his last three.
14:30O'Shea:Cody lost one of those. It's an easy mistake. At least, you know, I'm saying it from memory, and I'm not looking it up and pretending like I just know this information. Then a bunch of people are going to be like, well, why wouldn't you look it up? Shut up. Anyway, I digress. Cody and Roman are both formidable opponents for a Brock Lesnar team because right now I don't know who thinks they're in charge. It's Brock's team. So now we have what is just a disgusting lineup. You have the Usos, the world heavyweight champion in CM Punk, the WWE champion in Cody Rhodes, and Roman Reigns versus The Vision, Logan Paul, the underappreciated Drew McIntyre, and Brock Lesnar.
15:27O'Shea:Are you joking me? This is the type of stuff that you do on 2K. Like, this don't, this shouldn't, they, you don't even go here. Like, it just shouldn't, it should not be this heavy of a match. and honestly for a second TJ I was kind of sad Seth Rollins is hurt. I was kind of sad Seth Rollins. He deserved to be in this man. You know no disrespect to Logan Logan. I texted Logan right after. I said do you know as a wrestling fan how annoyingly lucky you are like it just pisses me off the cool shit he get to do and like he My God, you get to be a part of probably one of the craziest war games match I ever seen.
16:23O'Shea:I can't think of another Survivor Series match where I've been like both sides look like they shouldn't lose. They shouldn't lose. And it is everything that you want. It went off like an Attitude Era Raw. I tweeted Raw is war. I text Paul. I was like, dog, this is what I'm talking about, baby. Paul, Chef Levesque, cooking it up. This is what I am talking about. Put it in my veins. And we are in for a real treat. Survivor Series will be on ESPN. Just saying. If Mickey, if you're listening, we need tickets. We need tickets. But yeah. Now you talk. To quote the great Jay-Z, what more can I say? Oh my God.
17:23Look, man, it was one of those things where I'm not going to lie to you. Maybe I should keep this to myself, but I don't care. I'm going to share it with all y 'all because you're our friends. I don't say fans. I say friends of the show. The kendo stick just fell again. I'm going to leave it there. Right. Ghosts. When Brock came out, and I know there's still people, they have their feelings about Brock, unless there's some people feel very strongly about it, respect however way you feel. I'm just concentrating about what's going on in that ring because legally I don't know everything that's going on, so I can't really touch on it.
17:55But he comes out, and it's just like, oh. Yeah. Paul Heyman? And then I'm like you. I'm like, all right, so we got a week left. I guess we'll get Roman next week. And all right, Brock comes in, and he's just, like I said, Like the Prometheus, what is it? Oh, the engineer. The Prometheus engineer. That's what the man's built like. Human beings shouldn't be built like this, man. He bailed lots of hay at some point. And then all of a sudden, like you said, Roman's music came on. And here is a reenactment of me in my apartment on Monday night, watching this, sitting on the couch when Roman's music hit.
18:33Give me like a three, two, and I'll. All right. three two
18:39O'Shea:one yeah
18:46that was my reaction as yours mine and our bro tribal chief made his way like you said stunt with the arms band on looking a little bit light though I gotta see filming the movie he didn't look as brolic as he usually did but that didn't matter because you know the tribal chief has a presence and he made his way to the ring, like you said. And then you just realize, oh, it's about to be on. Because what? This has been going on for, what, 12, 13 years between him and Brock? Yeah. I know some people are tired of it. I ain't. You know what I mean? Why would I be tired? Come on, man. It's not like it's something we get every week.
19:20No. You know, not even every year. No, exactly. You know? Exactly. But, man, when you got Godzilla and King Kong ready to bang it out, let them do it. You got to let them do it. So, yeah, man, you see these teams, and it was on and popping. and I'm really looking forward to seeing what goes down. Now, tell me if you're also like me, folks, out there, and you and I haven't discussed this yet. At one point, Roman and Brock are starting to size each other up, and it looks like they're saying stuff to one another. There was a part of me, and it might have been that much of a part. Let me know if you actually had this feeling too.
19:58There was a part of me that for not even a split second, It was about 30 seconds where I went, yo, wouldn't it be wild if these two shook hands? Is that how you felt too? Bro, I was like, I haven't talked to anybody about this. But the way they were looking, they weren't in attack mode right away. And they were sizing each other up. And Brock was saying something. And Roman's shaking his head. And I was like, yo, is there a chance that we're getting? And my thought was, well, we'll get a swerve. Like, one of them will join the other. But who's going to join who? Roman's not going to leave the Usos.
20:30But Brock might want to screw over Paul. Then you can't put Brock on this team because what are you going to do? What are you going to do? But, man, there was a split second where I was like, you know, when McMahon and Austin shook hands and you thought that could never happen.
20:45O'Shea:It was like there was a lot of respect being had. And there was a moment where I was like, could you imagine? And right now I don't have to imagine because it didn't happen. But, bro, that would have been too much to handle. Oh, yeah. No, no. Just for the simple fact that Paul Heyman, by the way, Paul Heyman, you got to have your head on a swim, right? Like right now, like this, you got guys everywhere. Like guys you done stabbed in the back, guys you was cool with. Like this is the Paul Heyman Bowl. Right. It was so many, like Roman coming out and Brock coming out and you got Punk and you got Drew.
21:27O'Shea:I was ready to hear Cena's music again. I was ready to hear. It was just so much electricity. And when it went off, I remember screaming because, like, I thought this was Netflix. I don't have a time slot. Why are we going off? Now I have to go online like a stalker and look up people's home videos to see what went down. because I know we didn't just go home, and they went crazy. The NYPD's finest caught some kendo sticks. That didn't air? I'm pretty sure that aired, didn't it? Bro, not the ones I saw. I did see Roman Spear, too. That was cool, but they had a full-on brawl afterwards. I had to see NYPD body cam.
22:16That was amazing. Also, though, I know the cops, they were out there because I was like, hmm, some of these uniforms look way too brand new. you gotta here's just a in the wardrobe you're very busy just something to take into consideration iron all the creases out like that those uniforms look like they just got pulled out of a bag right so it was like i feel like some of them were real and then some of them you could tell okay these
22:41O'Shea:are the plants because the uniforms were off a little bit to me this was probably one of the most older black men things you've ever said. I heard some of these because it looked too wait a minute now. Come on, man. You out there on the beat. I understand you. I just knew I was like, hold up. Some of these cats look like they're cosplaying cops. And then, you know, they brought out our favorite weapon, the kendo stick. And the kendo stick got a lot of play. That whole night! That whole night! Shout out to the kendo stick. To the, you know... Who make them? Mattel? Who the hell makes kendos? Mr.
23:30Kendo, I think. Yeah, Mr. Kendo. Shout out to Kendo who made the kendo stick. A Singapore cane, if you want to call it. However you want to call it.
23:37O'Shea:This date, yes, it's John Cena's last Raw. We haven't even gotten to him. But you can tell this date you know my mom said oh yeah he's not playing around like triple h is not just not playing around with this one yeah you could tell that it was just like listen i just want wish i could be a fly on the wall for that meeting can we get that like yeah garden we're gonna go nuts like we're gonna go all out i want everybody there i want everybody all hands on deck and y 'all gonna go nuts and it like i said it felt like when i was a kid when i was a kid and there's a famous video out there of like one day a smackdown went off where taker comes out angles stone cold rocks like everybody just comes out hits their finisher it kind of felt like that again and i tweeted this to be a kid going to school on tuesday and having to talk to your friends about that you can't wait to hit the yard, boy.
24:44O'Shea:It's those moments. You can't do them all the time or they're not special. But when you get them, it is a jolt in the back. They are setting this up and we still got a whole week. We still got a whole week of setup that they got to do. We got to talk about what happened last Monday. They are, they brought it, man. Smackdown. Get up. Yeah. They ain't got no choice. like my goodness it's going to be an amazing night at Survivor Series I cannot wait for this match I cannot believe this match is happening we still have to see who gets the advantage who gets the advantage in the war games match that's going to happen next week boy and I'm another thing just a side personal note being co-host of the no contest wrestling podcast do you know how getting happy I am that we got to talk about this two days later instead of a week later.
25:43O'Shea:Yeah, right. Woo-wee! Right. Wednesdays, man. Good to be back. That's not your hearing over there. But the point. We here. We here. And, yeah, and you do kind of have to wonder what it would look like if the whole Seth thing didn't happen. Obviously, the vision would still be together. You would imagine. You'd have the title. Yeah. So that injury really changed so much, man. Yeah, you'd have the Raw's title on the heels. You'd have SmackDown's title on the faces. But now you've got two face champions, which is interesting. Stacked. But yeah, man, let's see. Let's see where this is going, see what happens.
Read the full transcript
26:22If you're going to ask me, I feel like right now, for some reason, I'm leaning towards the heel team. Yeah. But who knows? We'll see. We'll see.
26:30O'Shea:I mean, man, that's just a lot of star power to be losing. On both sides, really. Yeah, but I could. Let me think about that, what I just said. Respect to Logan, but I can see Logan. Wait a second. Well, they ain't going to do that, though. Roman Punk and Cody Rose? Yeah, wait a minute. Let me rethink that. That's crazy. I'll get back to you next week. Yeah. The more I sit on it. All right. Pause. Think about it. Pause. But yeah, man, whatever happens, we won't be here for it and we're down. Right. Now let's get to the rest of the show. They kicked the show off live from the world's most famous arena, Madison Square Garden.
27:14O'Shea:Yeah. And the last time is now. And that horn hit. And then out comes John Cena. And it was a moment. Look, I don't know if I'm ever going to be on the John Cena is the greatest of all time train. You know me. Because there's too much that goes into that. And that's not a knock on Cena. What it is, it's me not wanting to disrespect the legends that came before him who all have a legitimate argument for them being the greatest of all time. So I just don't know if I'm on that train now yet, but I will say for longevity purposes, he probably is when it comes to that no one in wwe has had a two decade run on top other than you know bruno sammartino holding the belt for 11 years yeah that first of all people were complaining about roman having a thousand day reign you realize bruno sammartino had four one thousand day reigns yeah like come on yeah man and not being on tv every week helps that yeah it does But still, that's still eight years and then three years.
28:26Like, and he sold out the garden more times than I think anyone, including Bernard King, Patrick Ewing, and Carmelo Anthony. So, you know, so it's hard for me to say that he's the greatest of all time. But longevity-wise, man, you have to give it to him. No one's been on top as long as he has. Even though there was like a solid eight-year period there where he pretty much was part-time. You know, he went, I think, what was it, like seven years without winning a match?
28:54O'Shea:That was crazy. Right? How insane was that? So he comes out, and, you know, he's doing the talking, and all of a sudden, you hear the music. And here comes the 20-year vet. I'm glad you know his song. The Future Goat. I still be like, especially Judgment Day. Judgment Day, I'll be like, what the hell is that? Oh, yeah, it's them again. But here comes the former Intercontinental champion. Former doesn't feel good. Dirty Dominic Mysterio. And Dom comes down. And the thing we, I don't know if we really touched on last week as much, was the greatness that is Dom. Dom stood up in front of John Cena, and he said everything with his chest.
29:39He wasn't afraid. You know, he went out there, and I think that was a star-making turn. Even though he's already a star to you and I, The fact that you went in there, got in the mic, stood toe-to-toe with Cena, then had the match. Really good Intercontinental Championship match. And you figure a rematch should be in the cards. And that's exactly what's going to happen. But Dom's like, nah, we're going to do this on my terms in my hometown, Survivor Series in San Diego. So now we're going to get that rematch, right? and it kind of makes you realize that Dominic Mysterio is going to have three of John Cena's last four matches.
30:20And I say three because, as you know, we got a six-man tag. Yeah. We got a six-man tag that night as JD. JD came down and Finn came down and the Judgment Day came down to back up Dom as they should. But then we got Sheamus and then Rey Mysterio Jr. came out. And I'm telling you, the crowd was on fire for this. And then Cena's like, you want a match? Here we go. You got three. I got three. You know, let's do this. So, man, that was the crowd popped. It was a really fun match to see Ray and Sheamus and Cena take on Judgment Day. And, man, it was, you know, when you. Man, it's kind of weird. I was going to say something else, but I realized the bottom line is it's weird to really realize that this.
31:07you're never going to see a guy who's beaten John Cena two times for a championship in Sheamus. I don't think a lot of people even recognize that. And then you've got Rey Mysterio who you know, good to see race isn't harboring ill will over that time. He was the world champion for about half a show. He wins the show in the title in hour one and then Cena gets a title match in hour three and beats him. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if I'd ever get over that. Yeah, yeah.
31:36O'Shea:That's 16 and a half. That's 16 and a half, bro. But yeah, man. And that's when wrestling becomes fun. Was there a real reason for this match? I don't know if there was, but other than this is fun, let's send John out, let's get as many people involved as we can because he's not going to be in there with Ray anymore. He's not going to be in there with Sheamus anymore. And let's just have a fun wrestling match. And I think they accomplished that. Yeah, what people have to understand is WWE is no, like it's not new for them to do something like this. Every now and then you got to go out there with, let's just give the people what they want.
32:21O'Shea:Let's just give the people a feel good goodbye on Raw to John. I see a lot of people bickering like this is what they did for his last match on Raw. Guys, do we not remember what he put his body through with that Cody match? That Cody match where Cody won the title back and how crazy that was. The man is already telling you that he's lost a step and all that. That's the only reason why he's retiring. He recently said that these aren't necessarily even on his terms because he wants to do more, but I just physically, I lost a step. You know? Which him losing a step is still better. sports term. It's still better than 75-80 % of everybody else, but it's not 100 % of you.
33:07O'Shea:But if I know that my last match, like in a world where my last match is on a half PLE with Saturday Night Main Event, but we know what this is all gearing up to. On top of, I just announced that I'm about to be a Survivor Series 2 with a title match for Dom. You know, I have this tournament And I have people that I wanted probably to give one of these last dates to in Seamus and Rey Mysterio that I probably couldn't get to or we couldn't find the avenue to do it. So let's do it on the last row. Let's let's let me tag with them. At least he respects them so highly. So I want to work with them one last time.
33:53O'Shea:And let's go out on a bang. The crowd was high. Just the start of the show. It's it's harmless. And I know that we fantasy book, this is like the 30th time I've brought it up. I know that in your head you think like, oh, it should be some classic that he goes out on for his last Raw. But you got to think that he's saving himself up for something because he's about to do the real goodbye in a month. So like, it's okay, dude. It's okay for him to want to go out like that with his buddies. once again to go back to Dominic Mysterio I think the key thing with Dom the way that the reason why Dom is able to stand on his own no matter who's in front of him is because it's not a character he has a unique opportunity where he gets to be out there and be himself and that's the best ammunition you can give somebody and not everybody can do that because not everybody has a natural charisma the same way that Dominic Mysterio does.
34:58O'Shea:There's certain people that just got it, that just got the charm, that just got that coolness factor. And he got it. And so he doesn't need a character necessarily written up for him. He could go out there and do what he feel, whether that be on Monday Night Raw or confusing the host of First Take when he goes on there. By the way, you saw how we handled the interview with him. That's for the No Contest fans. But yeah, so Dom, the 20-year vet been around the business is in a pocket that most people at his age in the business don't get to have then it's because he he lives it he lives this the same way that john does when triple h was running down all the reasons why john is the greatest of all time in boston for a second i was like oh that's what they look at that's what they're looking at because when you think about all the things that you're the boxes, the boxes that need to be checked in order for somebody to be a superstar.
36:04O'Shea:He's so high on the list. It's like when you're looking at the, the statistics of LeBron and he's on, you're on the assist list and you're on the three point list and you're on this list. And that's their argument. And John, John is a, a, a four star and most of the boxes that you need. And so like that, That's box office. My greatest of all time just happened to end this show because, you know, my, you're our tribal chief, baby. 1 ,316 days I could go on. But let John go out that way on the road. We know what he's gearing up for. Dom and him going to put on a banger, I'm sure, in Dom's hometown, which is also the home of the Padres.
36:49O'Shea:Gross. But, yeah, I'm excited. I'm happy with the way that John went out on his final raw in the most famous arena, not the greatest arena, but the most famous go Lakers. Staples is not close to being the greatest. It's crypto staples. And I'm surprised that you would even argue that. I just wanted you to be wrong. Well, I'm not, but we both know I say staples. I don't, they don't know that though. They know me. You call it crypto. See, I love you. Anyway, let's, let's not discount. What I said, though, Dominic Mysterio was found worthy enough. Need parts fast? O 'Reilly Auto Parts has fast. Need them now?

38:34If you remember after John won the Intercontinental Belt and he went backstage the prior Monday, right? He's shaking everybody's hands, getting up the adulation. He talked to Ray, and Ray was like, he deserved that ass-kicking. And you remember what John said?
38:50O'Shea:Tell us, TJ. He said, no, he's a good kid. Hopefully this helps him figure it out. So right then and there, it tells you he must have, he must see something really great in Dom because anyone could have gotten these dates with him, right? Anyone. But for some reason, it was Dominic Mysterio that was chosen to really, like I said, three out of his last four matches are going to be with Dom. You can't overlook that, man. That's not done by accident. You know what I'm saying? and for a lot of John's farewell tour I know because you know you and I we read almost all the comments on social media a lot of people haven't been happy with the way that this last tour is going people mad about the hill turn well people wanted it for so long right so you might not have been happy with the way it played out but at least that moment is still crazy at least he tried it at least you know it happened so therefore you can't say basically you can't say he was never hill anyway because started Dr.
39:48Thug Adamics was a heel. He was a heel up until he became the US champion back in what, WrestleMania 22? Yeah, bro.
39:55O'Shea:He stopped doing the heel stuff when he started filming the Marine. Right? But yeah, so shout out to Dom for getting the love and I guess the you're going to say pause, I know, but getting the rub. Pause. I knew that was coming. But yeah, so it's going to be interesting. Now, we'll talk about that later as the match goes on. Let's... Hold on, side note about Dominic Mysterio, just to talk about how great of a guy he is. Do you remember who his debut singles match was against? His debut single... Wasn't it against... It was in the Thunderdome. Dominic Mysterio's first singles match, they let him go one-on-one with Seth Rollins.
40:37O'Shea:That's right. That... The dude is good. The dude is trusted. Yeah. And he's got the skill set. I asked AJ Styles last week, who's somebody that he knows when I get in there, I can trust him. Basically turn your brain off, and he said Finn Ballard immediately. I wonder down the road how many people are going to say Dominic Mysterio. It's going to be quite a few, I'm sure, by the time it's all said and done. Next up, we had Nikki Bella. We surety turned on Stephanie. We saw that coming. Excuse me. Stephanie was about to come down and make a little entrance, and Nikki was like, uh-uh. She kind of put to be down there, you know, right at the current.
41:17Eagles fans, boy. You know, and basically said that, you know, she's not here for play. Right. She's coming for that title. So, you know, we're going to get that match at Survivor Series. Nikki Bella against Stephanie Bacare. I'm excited. Yeah. And then Asuka in the back tried to convince Bayley to come on her team. And then. And then. and Oscar said something like I'm willing to forgive you if you want to the gaslighting is crazy and of course Bailey seemingly turned her down because we still remember what happened you know with damage control so and then she snapped into calling so then we have the last time is now tournament that's continuing we got Solo he's coming down and he's in the ring.
42:07He's waiting. And, you know, there's been all types of speculation. Who could this be? Was it Edge? Was it Jericho? Was it Bob Backlund? You know, was it Stan Hansen? A lot of people had a lot of, you know, thoughts. And then, I'm here to show the world. And then that Dolph Ziggler music hit, and the Garden lost its... Bro.
42:27O'Shea:It exploded. Nick Nemeth, aka formerly known, maybe better known as Dolph Ziggler. His return, his first match in WWE since It's May of 2023. Yeah, man. Two years, two years. And he, shout out to the boys over at Busted Open. But he spoke about how you have wrestlers, they got that ego. So you wonder, are they going to care? Boy, let me tell you. They care. The pop that he got was so well-deserved. And that dude goes. Remember when we were in Gorilla for TNA and we saw him bouncing around, having a conversation, mid just like couldn't stay still. And that guy loves it. He loves it so much. And part of me knew.
43:28O'Shea:Part of me knew Solo was getting that. You knew. But like he made me believe for a second. Well, that's what Nick does. That's what he does, man. He's, you know, in his generation, he's going to go down as maybe the greatest seller of all time, right? And, I mean, look, we see how this is going with this TNA thing. AJ thought that, like, last week AJ Styles said he didn't think he'd be able to go back to TNA, have a match against Mike Santana, which we'll talk about that later. That kind of disappointed us. But he said he didn't think he was going to be doing it because it was going to open up the floodgates.
44:04And now you have TNA talent in Nick Nemeth and Dolph Ziggler coming. And, yeah, man, you want to – We'll get to that too, man. But, yeah, it was kind of written on the wall that he wasn't going to get the win. But, man, he made believers out of everybody. Yeah, for a second.
44:25O'Shea:And that's what it's about. That dude goes, man. Shout out to Nick Nemeth, a.k.a. the Nemethis. So he took an L, but did he really? Did he really take an L? I don't know. In this tournament he did, but like he, stock, not that the stock was down, but it rose significantly again after. Also, another key example of an entrance music shitting on all the new entrance musics there are because, my God, the instant rush of nostalgia. It wasn't like people had to think. I know you didn't even have to put his video up. They know that song, though. And it was beautiful. It is like you don't you won't know unless I guess maybe you play your TV loud enough or you go.
45:17O'Shea:But that jolt, when you hear a song you ain't heard in a long time and that pop it gives you, it is an out-of-body experience, bro. Like you are you're not in control of your emotion. And you just scream. Yeah, and you know what? Since you brought it up, even though this was SmackDown the week before, let's talk about that. LA Knight in the ring. He's waiting on an opponent. Like you said, all these names are popping around in your mind who could be. And then you hear, woo, woo, woo. You know it. And it was like, what? Here comes Zach, Long Island zone. The internet champion, Zach Wright. And again, it was a pop.
45:57People love seeing him out there, whether he's Matt Cardona or whether he's Zack Ryder. He's a guy who you have to respect this too because he was a guy who used the internet in a way that only at that point, I think Matt Hardy had really, really put a stronghold on, right? Matt Hardy was the first one to really use the internet to help further along his character. And that's what Zack did. You remember him climbing over the fence. He's making these videos. What are you doing? I'm trying to get over. You know, and he was doing all these things to kind of get himself over when the company wasn't trying to put him over.
46:35And it kind of seemed like it was almost to his detriment because they seems like and that was the word. They don't want you to get over. But yeah, he did. He got himself over. And then, you know, he let go and he went out and he's had a incredibly successful career on the independent scene. So it was good to see him get a shot to come back with L.A. Knight, a guy who, you know, the same thing with him. He spent years trying to get to WWE, putting in great work in different multiple companies all around the world. And so, of course, LA Knight gets the win. But I'm not the first to say this. I've seen it on social media.
47:13I was thinking it when the match was going on. If he's staying right there, you have a tag team. I was about to say, they're basically the same dude. Well, not only that, you got a tag team name. LA Knight, Zack Ryder. Let's call up David Hasselhoff. Let's call up Kit. Let's call him Knight Rider. Knight Rider come on come on
47:34O'Shea:hello Michael so Knight Rider Knight Rider would be hard so let's get them in it's basically like watching Scorpion and Sub-Zero team up when they showed their renderings next to each other I was like huh same dude so shout out to Dolph Ziggler and shout out to Zack Ryder man and it just goes to prove the people haven't forgot you they probably never will. And then it makes you remember when Punk and Cena were having their beef and Cena did his version of the pipe bomb. He said hey Matt Cardona. Hey Nick Nimeth. And then now you're thinking about like did he tell me the whole time? Did he tell me the whole time?
48:21Oh radio. Tell me everything.
48:25O'Shea:I was so happy. I was so happy to see Dolph. Yeah, that was good stuff. What a good dude. And then after that, Alexa Bliss got in the ring and she cut a fire promo. Yeah. Tried to be like, yo, Charlotte, what's the deal here? Tie your shoes, quit tripping. Right. You are my friend. And you're going to sit there and you're going to walk out on me, blah, blah, woo, woo. And then of course. Talk to me like I'm short. And of course, you know, the Hill Come to Hill team, Lash, Naya, Kabukis, they come out. Big body. Big body. Big mama. Big mama. Yeah, bro. Big mama. Whooping ass. And then you got Rio and Ea.
49:03They're going to come down and they're going to try to save Alexa. And then finally Charlotte comes out carrying the kendo stick. Charlotte put in work with the kendo stick. And then at the end, she picks Lexi up, gives her a hug. And Eo's showing why she must be protected at all costs. And she'll never be a hill anymore. She's kind of like, oh, you have a best friend. Me too. And she went and hugged Rio. And you had to laugh. And it was so funny that Charlotte, who's probably trying to be serious at the moment, just came and could. She just cracked up. I've been looking at EO just wrap herself around Rhea like, I got a friend, too.
49:39So, you know, we got our four. It's seemingly OK. It looks like Charlotte's going to come around. So now we got four on four. But we know it's going to be five on five. So what do we do later on in the show? We see. Well, after a match. Should we get into that? Yeah. We'll just say after after a match, AJ Lee was backstage and Rhea came up to her. It's like, hey, can we turn into Tevin Campbell? Yeah. Can we talk for a minute? And then AJ's like, yeah, of course. So that lets you know right then and there. AJ Lee is going to be the fifth woman on the face team, which automatically means that the fifth for the hill team is probably going to be a person who, if you listen to her on social media was done dirty she's got legal cases out there she's contacted lawyers she's looking into things that weren't fair and that's Becky Lynch
50:35O'Shea:she's taking legal action, she's got her concerns, she's also the greatest women's superstar in wrestling, but it's not just her that says that no, no, no, Bleach Report said it Bleach Report, ESPN Sports Illustrated said it too Yeah, I mean, no contest wrestling may have said it at one point. Yeah, if you get on, if you be a guest. Yeah. Becky, Becky be a guest. So we got the Intercontinental Championship match. We got Maxine Dupree taking on not only Becky Lynch. Sorry. But, you know, Jessica Carr, the referee, who doesn't like Becky Lynch, you know. Yeah. Fast count Carr. I got to be honest with you, you know, as you guys know, because you've seen it, it was last week or a few days ago, So Maxine Dupree with probably the biggest championship upset since I don't even know when becomes the new women's intercontinental champion.
51:26Yeah. Feeding Becky Lynch after AJ Lee's music hit and she came down to the ring and she distracted. She was just a spectator. Look, but Becky Lynch tried to tell you she didn't have a manager's license. We are in New York. They have a commission. You can't come down to the ring unless you're a manager. AJ didn't have that the proper paperwork to be down there. And that's why Becky got distracted. And that's why she lost her match. And that's why she's in an uproar. And that's why lawsuits are coming. And I got to be honest with you. I think I'm on Becky's side on that. Love AJ, but I'm on Becky's side.
51:57We have to look at the tape. Does she stop at the bottom of the ramp or does she go all the way to the ring? Well, she went down the aisle though. You see? So look, I don't know what the legal proceedings will be, but I think Becky has a case here. I just got to be honest with you.
52:13O'Shea:Oh man. Boy. we said we would never speak legalese on this show. We said that's as far as it went. That's as far as it goes. Yeah, shout out to Maxine Dupree. Look, I know you popped. I got to be honest with you. I don't know how I felt. I understand the desire to build up a new champion and build someone up. But when you look at the amount of talented women out there who could have been in that spot and gotten that IC title, So it kind of makes me at least scratch my head. Like, you know, Becky doesn't have a belt. Lyra doesn't have a belt. You know, me chin doesn't have a belt. There's a lot of talented women who could have had that rub, and they gave it to Maxine.
52:58So we'll see how she does. You know, I feel like she has come a long way. Remember, she got booed out of the building on a few occasions legitimately. But you can tell she's worked hard to get where she's at. The fam seem to be behind her, and, you know, that's that. So we'll see where this goes. I've seen a lot of watching WWE over the years.
53:19O'Shea:You've seen a lot of women who got the look. And no matter how much training they say that they've done, nothing changes. We see change happening with Maxine. It's a wonderful opportunity to be able to do that in the garden. Yeah, man. In the garden. They didn't have you out. You didn't win it in Tucson. Sorry, Arizona. This is big time. Yeah, yeah. You want it in the garden. So it's an amazing moment for her and, you know, all of her loved ones. I do want to point out that she got a singles championship before Chad Gable. That's just funny for the storyline. That's just funny for the storyline.
53:58O'Shea:But, yeah, dude, that's your new women's intercontinental champion. Hilarious in all the comedic displays that we've seen that team. But now you got some gold. Now they're coming for you. Yeah, because there's a lot on that mid-card that want that shine. The U.S. title is on Chelsea Green. You got the Intercontinental on Maxine. They both can't be funny. Yeah, right. We got to have these mid-card titles still looking like they're valuable pieces of hardware. We'll see. Yeah, we'll see. All right, man. So next up, we have the last time is now tournament match with a young OG, Javon Evans. And Javon's already in the ring when we come back from commercial.
54:48By the way, this is Netflix. Terrible sign. It was like six commercials in a row. Come on, Netflix.
54:54O'Shea:I thought we didn't have to have commercials, though. And I don't like that. Like, when I tweet about it, people are like, oh, I forget that you guys have commercials. What do you have? Yeah, well, here's what I figured out. If you're watching live live, then you get the commercials. If you watch, like, because there's been times where I've started Raw like an hour later or maybe after it's gone off, and I think at that point you don't get the commercials. That is correct, right? So, yeah, because for a while I was watching Raw at my discretion, you know, whenever I felt like it. Yeah, because you were a grown man.
55:27Yeah, but then I started watching on time, trying to be prompt, and I'm like, what the hell's up with all this?
55:31O'Shea:Yeah, man. What's up with that? Man. Right. shout out to the hurricane but yeah man so anyway so we come back from from you know a six seven commercial run that netflix has the six seven by the way shout out to carmelo hayes right we haven't talked about this if you haven't seen it check out our instagram page because i know i posted it there in our stories uh for november but at one point carmelo's got uh i want to say hit from Pretty Deadly. And he's got him in the corner on the turnbuckle, giving the punch count. One, two, three, four, five. He gets to five and he stops. He looks at the crowd and goes, as the crowd's still counting, six, seven.
56:16And it took like a split second and everybody popped and kept going on. And I wrote on Twitter, for as stupid as this six, seven thing is, right? It's dumb. It doesn't mean anything. But one thing I like about it, it just kind of brings everyone together. We're so divided amongst everything now. It's just something that it's stupid fun. So just have fun with it. When we went to Indianapolis for Wrestlepalooza, we said this on a previous episode, but we went into the back and we were like the 100 John Cena kids all dressed in yellow. And as they're leaving, because I think they pre-taped something, they're walking past us and they're all just going 6 '7", 6 '7".
56:58And you and I started and then they saw us doing it and they got so happy. I'll start high fiving us and you and I were just sitting there going six, seven, six, seven. So I was going to say, sometimes it takes something so simple to take somebody over. Yeah. Like everyone's sitting there about Carmelo Hayes wondering why hasn't he gotten to where everybody feels he should be? Why isn't he elevated? You know, it seems like he's doing all the work. Seems like people are behind him. truly it takes something that small to maybe propel you right so i i would suggest he can keeps doing this because i heard that there was someone i want to say maybe uh monsoor from uh xf well man i forget i read somewhere i don't want to say who it was be wrong but somebody said someone else did it about two weeks ago on aw but the thing is i I didn't see video of that.
57:54Right. Like the first video I saw in all this time was Carmelo Hayes doing. So I would say find a way to work that in, incorporate it, because that could be just that little thing it takes to put them over the top. Yeah.
58:05O'Shea:I mean, how many times have we seen somebody get a viral moment on main event? Rarely ever. Exactly. Like he's on main event and he did that. And that's going all over the internet. and what we've learned in this new day and age when they see you can bring in them numbers it can propel you man so if that's what it takes if kids can turn on WWE 2K and when they play as Carmelo he can hit that or they can make their creative player do that in the middle of the corners come on man that sells something so simple and so little but I do want to say, young OG, NXT, when they had their jerseys, NXT versus TNA, his jersey was number 6 '7".
58:56O'Shea:I mean, he's a young dude. Of course he got it. So back in the day, being from Pittsburgh, I'm a Pittsburgh Penns fan. Big tuna. Big tuna. You need to chill out, bro. Altoona, Pennsylvania. You know what it is. Listen, bro, you see I got this stick, right? Oh! Yeah, I had a custom-made Pittsburgh Penguins jersey. back in the day. Now, at that point, Mary Lemieux wore 66. Yarmir Yager wore 68. Can you guess what number I made my jersey back in 1998?
59:30Six, seven. That's right. But it got stolen when me and Kutcher lived together. Let me tell you this story. Me and Action Kutcher, as some of you know, we were roommates. And this is in the early 2000s from 01 to like 05. And we had a house party one day. And somebody somehow got in my bedroom and stole. I had a Peter Nedved Penns jersey, which was 93. And I had a Jefferson one. And somebody stole my jerseys. I had a yellow Yankee starter jersey. Yeah, so somebody out there ganked me, man. Son of a bitch. But you know what? I hope your life is well, and I hope you're doing okay, even though you stole what was mine.
1:00:06But yeah, so. Let me tell you something. Whoever you are, you sick freak.
1:00:12O'Shea:I hope all the bad things in life are happening to you and no one else. You only. How dare you rob from the big tuna? Hashtag big tuna. We're going to cut that out. Anyway, so Javon's in the ring. He's standing. We know he's wrestling.
1:00:30except oh no he's not using that he's using the old Symphony No. 9 I can't even say it
1:00:43and it took people a second to go wait wait a sec I was like I literally had to return I was like wait is he using and I don't know that just makes him even more intimidating as he comes down the ring, down the ramp, and there's no ramp to the ring and his robe just looking like he's ready to chop meat because that's what he does. Speaking of Kutcher, you want to know something funny? And this is how I think you and I have done a great job here on No Contest with bringing people back into wrestling who may have, you know, stopped watching so much. And you understand, Ashton, this is very unlike him, but he randomly sends me a text in which you'll appreciate this.
1:01:27Sends me a text on Sunday at nine in the morning. Right? This is football. This is our thing. He goes, the thing I like about Gunther is that it's so underplayed and simple. No effort to be cool, just violent power. And I was like, oh, crap. Out of nowhere, on a Sunday morning, you're thinking about Gunther. And I was like, exactly. His intentions are simple. The Matt is sacred. He's the ring general. And if you don't respect it, he's going to beat your ass until you do. And if you do respect it, he's still going to beat your ass.
1:02:03O'Shea:Yeah, because you in a ring. Chop, punch, kick, choke. And he was like, I like the simplicity. And that's what he brings to the table. No muss, no fuss. He is the general, and you're going to respect this ring. You're going to respect him. Don't you ever question his pimp. Right. But man, he and Javon put on a pretty nice show. And shout out to the young OG, man. I was scared because I was like, I know they're not feeding my boy. I know they're not feeding my boy to Gunther. And, you know, I haven't seen Gunther in quite some time. And this is how I see you going against my boy, the second Genesis himself.
1:02:41Yeah, the young OG.
1:02:42O'Shea:Yeah, young OG, bro. But he handled his business. He did his thing. and I believe he's that dude has in store for him. Not only did he do that, but NXT and he's going to be doing AAA. He's got a week ahead of him. So shout out to the young OG. Stay healthy, man. Got them limbered 21-year-old. He went out there and he hung in there with a bad, bad, bad man in Gunther. And I put on Twitter his stock just continue to rise every week. Javon just keeps doing more and more. He's a star in the making, so shout out to him. Because while he's also, while he is athletic and, like, jump out the gym and the high-flying stuff, he's big.
1:03:30O'Shea:Like, Javon is still tall and, like, formidable. Like, them shoulders is real. So he's going to put on some weight. Yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? But, yeah, man, shout out to Javon and Gunther moves on. Study. And play. Come together on a Windows 11 PC. And for a limited time, college students get the best of both worlds.

In the tournament, and I forgot earlier we were talking about the Women's World Games. We talked about Becky losing and everything, but I think what's at my point at the beginning of that was the setup that it looks like, or you would imagine she's going to be the fifth person on the Hill team, especially if AJ is going to accept the offer to join the woman's face team.
1:04:48So you're probably looking at Oscar, Kyrie, Lash, Nia, and Becky. That's a dirty squad, right?
1:04:56O'Shea:The fact that they got Lash and Nia is such a like, dog, them together is not fair, let alone with weapons in a cage. Right? And then you see, you know, Lash is just using that forearm better than anyone's. It's probably Tito Santana. Back in the day, she's just mashing people. And then you see how just physically dominant Lash looks. She's bigger, stronger than everyone else. It will laugh in your face the whole time. Right? And so her and Nia together, ooh, man, like good luck. And with that being said, shout out to Trick Williams. I see you, brother. Who, if I could quote Trick Willie, when we talked about him and we asked about last, she was like, yeah, I moved in.
1:05:44And then I didn't leave. I was like, okay.
1:05:47O'Shea:I'm going to leave my toothbrush here if that's cool. Shout out to Trick. But yeah, man. So that's it. Looks like the Women's War game teams are pretty much solidified. The men's teams are solidified. We got Dom taking on John Cena for the Intercontinental Championship. Now, do you, how do you see that play? Do you think Dom is going to regain the title? Because at first I thought he might, but for Cena's last match, I kind of think something else is going to happen. But who do you, you know, as you give your answer, I'm going to pull up who is left in this tournament, by the way. I think with the situation that's different from Boston, because remember Dom was kind of ambushed by Paul, Triple H, Levesque, and John Cena because he was mouthing off.
1:06:47Well, look, he went down to the ring.
1:06:48O'Shea:Yeah, he was mouthing off. And so, you know, they kind of sprung it on him. Hey, you got a match, and it's right now, and it's for the title. In this situation, his rules, his house, there might be a couple of Americanos around that ring. Oh, baby. So I do see, because we were talking about how you're not really ready for Dom to give up that Intercontinental title. And also, John, you're leaving in a month. You're leaving in a month, bro. But somebody on one of our YouTube videos said my take age like milk when I said about two weeks ago, I said, Don should be the IC champion forever. I want to see him for 10 years, and then he lost the next week.
1:07:28So that was my bad.
1:07:29O'Shea:The last three no contests have been just spat in the face. And it is ridiculous. But we're going to get to Mike Santana in just a second. Yeah. So, look, what we have left in this last time is now tournament. You know, we'll just review this real quick. We have Rusev. He defeated Damian Priest. Congratulations on your new child, by the way. Oh, Rusev. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. He just had a baby. No, no, no, no. They're going on their process. CJ Perry, they are having a baby, they announced. So, yes, congratulations to you guys. That's amazing. Rusev was a guy we got to chop it up with a little bit when we were in Anaheim.
1:08:11Lana was sitting there looking very pretty, and I was too intimidated to speak. I'm going to lie to you about that. Plus, I just met Oscar, so my heart was already still palpitating. I couldn't handle anything else.
1:08:21O'Shea:Do you want to tell the people what I told Rusev? What did you tell Rusev? Go Lakers. Oh, that's right. And then we were stepping out hugged because I'm a Clippers fan. And we kind of, you know, we dismissed O'Shea and we talked. Gross. But Sheamus defeated Shinsuke Nakamura. You know, anytime Nakamura loses, it upsets me. Yeah, but now I'm talking to AJ Styles.
1:08:44Shinsuke just is probably over. Killed me. Killed me. You get a chance if you have, make sure you go back and watch our interview last week with the phenomenal AJ Styles. And I'm going to call another Audible here. it's crazy the way that AJ Styles doesn't realize that he's AJ Styles but that's what you want but then it's also like no dog you AJ Styles like this man is saying to us well yeah I'm gonna be able to like you know quietly go away and no one's gonna care and I admonished AJ Styles I said yo don't you ever on ESPNCW no contest wrestling ever make it seem like ain't nobody gonna care because you are gonna be celebrated right and when you leave it's gonna be a dark day in wrestling so So, yeah, but AJ is almost one of those guys who just doesn't really understand how much he means.
1:09:31Or maybe he was just being super humble. I kind of almost hope that was the case and not that he really doesn't know where he stands on most wrestling fans' lists.
1:09:40O'Shea:I mean, a lot of the things he said last week where he was like, he said, yeah, you know, I'd already put it in my head that I would never get a WrestleMania moment and I was okay with that. Bam. Goes to WWE. Yeah, you know, I just, I'm just so shocked. and happy that all those people in France, you know, care about AJ Styles. Come on, you're AJ Styles, bro. You don't know. And that right there also makes you a superstar because you're not, you don't have this inflated ideology of yourself and you still go out there and give it everything. Right. And it's because you see it as that's your job.
1:10:23O'Shea:Yeah. But meanwhile, all of us are just like AJ Styles, you know? So shout out to AJ, man. That's still one of my favorite interviews. Yeah, man, that was really good. Make sure you check it out. Like I said, Jey Uso defeats The Miz in the tournament. LA Knight over Zack Ryder waiting for that tag team Knight Ryder. Gunther defeated Javon Evans and Solo Sokoa defeated Nick Nemeth. Now, coming up on this SmackDown on Friday, we're going to have Bronson Reed take on Carmelo Hayes. Six, seven. Got to hit that one time. Got to hit it. And Penta is going to take on Finn Balor, right? Finn Balor. And then the quarterfinals will start next Monday, the 24th.
1:11:08And here's the deal. I think you and I, as well as many people, thought that this was going to be the perfect opportunity to introduce a young upstart, put them in this tournament, give them a chance to get that last John Cena match. it doesn't appear that that is going to be the case. So we're looking at, you know, some established bets already, which I still don't know how I feel. I think it's going to come down to who actually wins this. But, man, I really thought this, and I go back a month saying this and I'm going to stand on it. This seems like it would have been the perfect opportunity to bring an NXT guy up, have him win, and allow him to be the one.
1:11:45Did we not mention NXT during that promo package? He said there could be some NXT people there. And it just wasn't. I mean, we had a former NXT champion in Dolph Ziggler. Yeah, that's true. He was in the finals. You had some former NXT standouts like Solo and Finn.
1:12:09O'Shea:But just wasn't in the cards. Just wasn't in the cards for one of these young cats to come up and face Jon. And I still feel like that's probably going to be a mistake in the long run. But we'll see. We'll see. But, yeah, so we have the quarterfinals. That will be next Monday and Friday, obviously, the 24th. And then back on the 28th. Raw on the 24th, SmackDown on the 28th. And the finals are going to take place on Raw on December 8th, man. Yeah. And so because it's obviously not going to be Obafemi, the way I had predicted, and Obafemi's going to be right, or Trick, Dom was the other guy I said.
1:12:55He's still, like I said, Dom's getting the three out of four match run against Cena, which pretty much has made you a winner anyway. So at first, everyone's saying it's Gunther. That was always the thing. I'm just going to say this. my opinion today right now Jey Uso's going to be the one man because a lot of people online you know when we started our pod we wonder twin powers formed together an alliance that would stop all the stupid IWC hate and that's the only place where Jey Uso seems to be hated is online on social media because we've been to many cards together over this past year. Jey Uso gets the biggest pop every single time he comes out.
1:13:46So I don't know how people can say people are tired or don't like him because the litmus test is what that live crowd does when you're in the building. And he is beyond loved. Beyond. Every time he comes out. So I would say the internet is just a lot of noise, a lot of talk, trying to tear him down for whatever reason. But for some reason, I feel that it's, when it's all said and done, And especially if Dom doesn't win this belt in the Continental Championship back, I think it's going to be Jey Uso, man. I think when you have someone that popular, that organically over, you can't dismiss that.
1:14:23It has been dismissed before. You know, in terms of Zack Ryder, they didn't capitalize on how over he got. Forget what the IWC says. Listen to the live crowds, man. And everyone in there is on their feet. And I've been watching every week specifically to see if there's, if it's dying down. And brother, it ain't dying down.
1:14:43O'Shea:I've only seen one week where they booed him. But that was during the. The time where it looked like he was about to turn hill? Yeah, well, like kind of near the punk, him and punk going for the title around then. Okay, well, it's punk fans too. Yeah, other than that. Yeah. Come on, man. Yeah, so I don't know. I think it's going to come down to those two, Gunther and Jay. but I feel like that's just my pick. What do I know? We're here. We're just, we're, you know, we're fantasy book. And just like you guys are listening right now and you're hearing this and you've already got, you know, your phone up to tell me I'm either full of it or you agree, but like, you know, who even watches these two says the guy in the comments.
1:15:23But, uh, so let us know in the comments, man, when you see the video, who do you think it should be? And also, also who would you have liked it to be? That's also what we'd like to know. Who do you think it's going to be? And who do you wish it could have been? And that's something that we're interested in as well. Yeah, man. But yeah, Evans, Gunther, fantastic work by those two gentlemen. Yeah, kudos. Kudos, if you will. Yeah, brother. So, you know, that's it. I think we did a good job catching up. I got one more. Oh, one more. What you got, G?
1:15:57O'Shea:I am furious. Furious Styles? I am pissed off. I have been bamboozled. Led astray. Hoodwink. Ran amok. Dog. So you, let me get this straight. Yes, sir. The No Contest Wrestling Podcast has the first ever, first ever Puerto Rican TNA heavyweight champion, Mike Santana. He gets on here, gives us one of the most tear-jerking episodes ever. From the heart, we talk about how real of a guy he is, how everyone rides for this dude, how he deserves it. He talks about bringing it back to his neighborhood and how it uplifts people, and it's a great one. You leave wishing you could give the guy a hug. He talks about his dream match scenario with AJ Styles.
1:17:12O'Shea:By the grace of God and Mickey Mouse, AJ Styles is on the No Contest Wrestling Podcast the very next week. Seven whole days. I plant the seed. The propaganda has been planted in the soil. Chia Pet grown three days. In his ear. Pause. And he listens and he wanted to do it, but could not see an avenue. There's just no way it can happen. And then that Friday, we see Matt Cardona, Zach Ryder, come from TNA to the main roster. It's almost like a window of opportunity opened up. And then what happened? They take the belt off Mike Santana. I was stunned. I have never felt so just instant dumbass. Like, I just wasted, like, it was right.
1:18:23O'Shea:Like, I saw it start to form. TJ, I saw it. I saw it start to form. I was like, it can happen now. TNA main roster, it's right in front of me. It was the opposite of Back to the Future, where Marnie McFly had that Polaroid, and as things were going, the family started disappearing from the Polaroid. Except this was backwards. Stuff started to appear on the Polaroid. It started to like, oh my God, the floodgates he was talking about, they opened it themselves. It's there. Obviously, some conversation. What do you mean, Mike Loss? I saw a comment on the last week's video that said as I'm watching this I just got the notification that Mike just lost the title yeah we were I was stunned and then I was trying to think of the reason because you know you and I know that TNA sometimes they film shows ahead and I said to you and Don Bowie our producer I'm like do you think that like Mike already knew he had lost and this match had already happened but then I realized after I said that to you that there's no way there's no way people in the crowd would have kept that a secret, right?
1:19:31So that had to be live. They're not always live, and that really happened. And then, you know, to have the TNA, the NXT guys come and jump him, which caused him to hurt his arm, which caused him to lose. But here's the deal. With all due respect to Alexis King and some of the guys, they weren't even like the big dogs in NXT that came down and interfered, man. So it's just like you got to wonder sometimes what's really going on with this, man. But for TNA to take the title off of this man that quick, with all due respect to Frankie Kazarian, who is an OG, who's done his, man, he's put in work all over the world.
1:20:07Frankie Kazarian has wrestled all of your favorites. He's wrestled over a 20-plus year career. So no disrespect to Frankie, who finally, you know, in any other moment, that would have been such a feel-good moment to see Yvette get the belt in that situation. But for some reason, that just didn't sit well with a lot of people.
1:20:24O'Shea:The guy who battled addiction talked about a letter his daughter wrote to Santa, begging Santa to make her father stop, changed his life, came back around, won the title, brought his daughter, bowed to her feet, gave her the belt as an apology and a thank you. one of the greatest moments that I can remember, not only in TNA, but just a natural real life meeting wrestling moment. And it's gone before I could get my seed planted of propaganda to get the dream match during AJ Styles farewell tour. And like everything that needed to happen happened. and then they took the belt off him. Now, Mike is a good dude.
1:21:23O'Shea:I know, I know, it's wrestling. Shea, you're getting worked. But I have the right to say, and D 'Lo, please bleep this out. This is f***ed.
1:21:40O'Shea:I apologize to the listeners in the car for the beep. I don't know how long you're listening to our show. Sorry to the mouse. My God. Yeah, man, it was really disappointing, bro, because I had such high hopes. You know, you go Mike Santana going from, and a lot of people don't know how good, you know, LAX was when he was in there. A lot of people know how good Santana and Ortiz were, right? So he goes from being a just highly decorated tag team wrestler to now he goes on the singles run and he becomes world champion. That's hard enough to do, you know, But then to have it taken away in the manner that it was as quickly as it was, I don't know, man.
1:22:20I just, I ain't feeling that at all. I can't front. I'm not feeling that.
1:22:24O'Shea:The name of the game is to get us to feel. You got me to feel. TJ, if you would. Well, even before, we got one last thing that we got to talk about. Because we like to talk not just wrestling, but all sports. Monday Night Raw, as we know, we just got done finished talking about. But let's talk about a guy that I got to meet when we went to do Fanatics Fest this summer. We're in the little holding area. And there's a guy standing right next to me. And I had to show him love. And that was a guy named Cam Scadaboo. And, you know, I made sure I had Cam on a few of my fantasy football team, even though he's a giant.
1:23:00Yeah. You know, of all the teams I dislike, I like the Giants the most out of everybody I don't like, if that makes sense.
1:23:06O'Shea:100%. So, you know, I made sure I had Cam on my fantasy teams, at least three of them. and, you know, it was devastating to see him go down because he was so much fun to watch. You know, he was so much fun to follow. You know, he was becoming a star. And to see, you know, him dislocate his ankle like that and go out, it just stunk. But then we got Monday Night Raw. And who's in the front row? But Cam Scatterby. You know what I'm saying? And then Cam gets up and Dom and JD and Finn get in Cam's face. And next thing you know, you got Abdul Carter there. You got Andrew Schultz there. You got, you know, a bunch of people.
1:23:41And then, you know, of course, it's going to pop off. Yeah. You know, Finn Balor come. It was Cam who shoved Dom because Dom got into his face. Finn Balor came. And if you slow motion it, Finn Balor came over with a forearm and he caught he caught Cam in the jaw pretty decently. Go back and watch it, as you can see here. And then it was on after that. And then, of course, everybody had a little bit of an issue with it going down. And we actually talked about it on the main show, on the Rich Eisen show, yesterday and today. Do you know what? Scadaboo is done going to Raw. Why was he at Raw last night?
1:24:15I'm a New York Giant. It was John Cena's last time at the Garden. You can't stop me from going to that. I say, Scadaboo, love that you're wearing a Rangers sweater. Love that you're out and about. Love that you're Cam Scadaboo. Love that you're going to Raw. But don't participate. Just spectate. When Dirty Dom, who's the future goat of professional wrestling, is standing to you. Get out of here. You got an E, I'm saying. What do you want to do? That's the goat right there. It's Dom Mysterio. That's amazing. For my young giants who clearly only know one's speed that on occasion can be dangerous to their health, I'm going to sit them down.
1:24:56Judgment day, baby. So I'm not discounting what you said. Last year during an Arizona State game, I said to you guys in five years, Scadaboo is either going to be a special teams nightmare or the intercontinental champion going into WrestleMania. Both things can be true. He's all things. He's not a special teams nightmare. He's an offensive nightmare. He has had his raw privileges revoked. No, I'm a New York Giant. Respectfully, no. You can't do that. It's John Cena's last time. Next thing you know, he's going to have a folding chair in his hands and get out of here. He should have had a kendo stick with him if he was smart.
1:25:31Can we just spectate and not participate. Look, this was John Cena's last time in the Garden. You can't stop me from going to that if I'm Cam Scadaboo. And so a lot of people were concerned because he does have a bad ankle. He was on a cart. But the thing is, that ankle was properly, you couldn't see it on TV, but you knew they took every precaution to wrap the ankle to make it safe. It was dislocated, right? Yeah, they made it safe. So it wasn't like he was going out there with the ace bandage. now he had a boot on it was i'm pretty sure all you know every you know all precautions were taken to make sure that it couldn't really get messed up and you know i'm sure it was something like a dream man and i think that you know i'm gonna tell you this you should reach out on twitter because you got to fall on we need to have cam scataboo face time we need to talk to him about some wrestling i'm on it here's cam's here's cam's tweet hey honestly if you don't like that i'm having a good time while dealing with a tough time, then just go ahead and unfollow me and casually move on.
1:26:33I'm not able to play football and have the fun I've been having my whole life. So I'm doing these things outside of the box, trying to find stuff to keep me happy. Enjoy the rest of y 'all's week and just don't talk about me if you ain't got nothing nice to say. Well, Cam, guess what? We got something nice to say and we are going to talk about you. And I I loved it, man. I loved seeing him there. So, yeah, let him be, man. Let him have fun. I get it if you're a Giants fan and you got worried, but like I said, I promise you I'm sure that ankle was wrapped securely and all precautions.
1:27:05O'Shea:It was dislocated, right? There was no torn ligaments or nothing. That I'm not sure of. Okay. I'm not sure. Either way, I'm sure he had a tank on that foot. Yeah. And it's not, you know, this isn't necessarily your cast from Tarzada Medical Center. All right. This dude is in New York and is a giant and part of the NFL. I'm sure he has some sort of technology on that foot that we're not even aware of. He could jump down the stairs and he wouldn't fit it. Well, I probably wouldn't recommend it. No, you don't recommend it, but he could. Maybe. I could drive with my knees. That don't mean it's a good idea.
1:27:39No disrespect to the Tarzana Medical Center.
1:27:42O'Shea:I don't think they got what the New York Giants got for Cav Scadamu. Okay, and as I'm recalling now, it was a broken right fibula. and you can't be doing that. Sit your ass down. Sit your black ass down, Cam. I forgot about the broken fibula. But you know what, man? He's young. He's 22. It was a push. He was wearing the boot, like I said, so I knew that that thing would be protected as much as it possibly could. Yeah, it was a push. He's fine. It's over. I think the worst thing that happened to him was Finn hitting him with the forearm. Probably was worse than anything that happened with his ankle.
1:28:19But yeah, shout out to Cam Scadaboo. We'd love to have you here on the No Contest Wrestling Podcast. We got to make that happen. But yeah, man.
1:28:26O'Shea:Everybody calm down. It's over. It happened already. He's fine. And by the way, if you don't like the fact that Cam Scadaboo did that, if you're mad, tell them what they can do. I got two words for it, though. Isn't there somewhere you tell them they can put that? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. What? In a hefty. Oh, oh, oh. You can either get mad, get glad, get heavyweight trash bags. Nobody cares, dog. It's over. Like, it's over. You're complaining about the Band-Aid is ripped off. It's over. What are you crying about? Now, if he told y 'all that that's what he was going to do and y 'all said no and he did it anyway, that's a whole different story.
1:29:07O'Shea:But you saw it. He's fine. He pushed somebody. It's over. Now, he's about to hit all these streamers and all these stuff like that. While you're on that little run, come down to the No Contest Wrestling Podcast. We can just talk wrestling and how if I still had you on my fantasy team, I could book the championship. By the way, if he hadn't got hurt and I had him, I'd be 7-2 right now, I think. But, yeah, nobody cares. It's fantasy football. Yeah, I mean, I care. I'm in a 16-man league, so there's slim pickings. So what you get in the draft, you really like hold on to. And I got him real late. And it was glorious having Cam on.
1:29:47O'Shea:Oh, it was so nice. But, you know, shout out to Tracy Jr. or whatever the other guy's name is. I know Tracy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But shout out to you, Cam, man. Keep healing. Get better. My football team, because I got Jackson from Seahawks, and I got Saquon, and then I got Junior is Saquon Jackson Jr. All right. There you go. My basketball team is the jumping Jehoshaphats. Jump this guy. Listen, man, if you want to catch up on everything we're doing socially, here's how you find this.
