02:56So

02:57Today

02:57I am Dr. Fro

02:59Thank you for joining us

03:00We are talking WWE Smackdown

03:02Reactions and analysis

03:03Let's start the show right away

03:05With Sami Zayn coming to the ring

03:07And I love his character right now

03:09The gloating

03:10The predicted

03:11That they were all gonna fall on their face

03:13He congratulates Penta

03:15He wants Penta to

03:16You know

03:16Basically pushing Penta

03:17To focus on Roman Reigns

03:18Instead of him

03:20What I did not expect

03:21Was for Trick Williams

03:23To be the guy to come out

03:24And talk trash to Sami

03:25I didn't see Trick

03:26Having this kind of a program

03:28I really didn't

03:29I figured Trick

03:30Was gonna go into something

03:31Possibly with Cody Rhodes

03:32If it wasn't gonna be Cody Rhodes

03:33He could've gone into something

03:34With Randy Orton

03:35After Cody and Randy are over

03:37He could do

03:37There's so many other things

03:39Trick could do

03:39And as soon as I see

03:40Trick's music hit

03:41I gotta chill

03:42Because I was like

03:43Oh my goodness

03:45WWE knows

03:46They have so many

03:47Established stars

03:47At the top of the carpet

03:48They're not creating

03:49Enough new people

03:50Are they really gonna push

03:51Trick Williams to that level

03:53And I thought

03:53You know what

03:54I hope so

03:55However

03:56I don't think it's gonna happen

03:57There is a report out

03:59And I apologize for not knowing

04:00The original report

04:01I will say that

04:01WrestleTalk News

04:02Also talked about this

04:03That there was some people

04:05Speaking about a backstage situation

04:07Where CM Punk

04:08Did not want to put

04:09Kevin Owens over

04:10For the championship

04:11So basically

04:12He was willing to put it on Sami

04:13So that Sami could then

04:15Later give it to Punk KO

04:16If that's the direction

04:17They're heading

04:18This Trick Williams thing

04:19Won't go anywhere

04:19But maybe it shouldn't

04:20But this gets him

04:21Into the main event

04:22I love that

04:23Now they get interrupted

04:24By Johnny Gargano

04:24Who comes out

04:25After they're having

04:26Their back and forth

04:26For a little bit

04:27And it sets up a match

04:28Between Trick Williams

04:28And Gargano

04:29You already know

04:30That if you're gonna

04:31Elevate Trick like this

04:32He's gonna win the match

04:33I did think that

04:34Gargano's doing some

04:35Of the best work

04:36Of his career right now

04:37And I love that

04:38Because for a smaller guy

04:39It's hard in WWE

04:40To really get your

04:41Traction sometimes

04:42He should definitely

04:44Be having matches

04:44With like Ray Phoenix

04:46He should be challenging

04:47People like Chad Gable

04:48Or whoever

04:48At the mid card level

04:50And the only way

04:50You get to challenge

04:51For those championships

04:52Is to be relevant

04:53Now if you want to

04:53Put him in a world title

04:54Program I'm fine

04:55With that as well

04:55Him and Sammy

04:56Would be great

04:57I think they'd put on

04:57A clinic of a match

04:59But I'm just glad

05:00To see him doing

05:01Something that matters

05:02Because for so long

05:02He wasn't

05:03And all that

05:03Planking stuff

05:04Was stupid

05:05Of course

05:06Trick picks up to win

05:07Sammy tries to get

05:08Evolved a couple

05:08Times when

05:08Trick wins

05:09Solid stuff

05:10Obviously leading

05:11Towards Sammy

05:11Trick at some point

05:12From there

05:13We are told

05:14In the back

05:15That Blake Monroe

05:16Is warned

05:16That she is gonna

05:17Face Julia

05:18In a street fight

05:19As Aldis

05:20Is explaining

05:21This to her

05:21Chelsea Green

05:22Walks in

05:23And Monroe

05:23It's obvious

05:24She takes an interest

05:25In Chelsea Green's

05:26Championship

05:27Now I love that

05:28Because at some point

05:29Obviously she's gonna

05:30Be in that championship

05:30Picture

05:31But it's weird

05:34There's so many women

05:35At the top of that card

05:36Nikki Bella

05:36Comes into the frame

05:37She wants that championship

05:39Monroe obviously

05:39Wants the championship

05:40We know Tiffany Stratton

05:42As the briefcase

05:42There's so many options

05:44Here

05:44And Chelsea Green

05:45In the past

05:46You would say

05:46Poor little Chelsea Green

05:47Stuck in the middle

05:48Of all this

05:48She is standing tall

05:50Through all of these

05:51Little interactions

05:52She looks great

05:54She's holding her spot

05:55I almost feel bad

05:57For her

05:57That the minute

05:58That Rhea Ripley

05:59Comes back

06:00You know she's

06:00Taking back her championship

06:01Because I think

06:02Chelsea's doing

06:03Incredible work

06:04And this makes me

06:05Look forward to a

06:06Chelsea Blake Monroe match

06:08I think I said

06:09Monet earlier

06:10I apologize

06:10Chelsea Blake Monroe

06:12Or Chelsea Nikki

06:13Whenever they finally

06:14Get their match

06:15It's gonna be solid

06:16Now

06:16After that backstage

06:18Vignette

06:18Leading into what

06:19I'm talking about now

06:20Paige ends up

06:21Facing Nikki Bella

06:22And Paige wins

06:23Which makes Paige

06:25Now if she beats Nikki

06:26And Nikki was positioning

06:27For a championship

06:27Opportunity

06:28Why wouldn't Paige

06:29Get a championship

06:30Opportunity

06:30So now you pushed

06:31Her to the top

06:31Of the card

06:32By the way

06:32In this match

06:33Between Paige

06:34And Nikki Bella

06:34I could have gone

06:35The rest of my life

06:36Without seeing them

06:37Do like an ode

06:37To John Cena

06:38The two dated

06:40A long time ago

06:40They were engaged

06:41A long time ago

06:42I mean think about it

06:43This way

06:43Let me put it to you

06:43This way

07:12They got engaged

08:12Put over

08:22They go with this

08:24I can't wait for the

08:28Offense in

08:29But at the end of the

08:59They felt

09:00They felt the need

09:58And unfortunately

09:59That made him

10:58Fatal influence

11:29And they get a beat

11:29Pushed further down

11:59I think they were

12:00Shoving the referee

12:01And all that kind of

12:31They go to Crown Jewel

12:32Maybe that's one of the

12:33Matches for Crown Jewel

12:34Because I know the whole

12:35International community

12:36Loves Ray Phoenix

12:37But I don't know

12:38I feel like this is

12:40Something that really

12:40Should get wrapped up

12:41On television

12:42Not a PLE

12:43I want to see

12:44I want to see Ray Phoenix

12:44Wrestle with a host

12:45Of other people

12:45But at least this game

12:47Ricky's saying something

12:47To do where he's not

12:48Taking a loss again

12:49Because that's also a problem

12:51Since coming to the

12:51Main roster

12:52The guy loses

12:5290% of his matches

12:54So at least he didn't

12:55Lose in like a pinfall

12:57Way

12:57Disqualification I don't

12:58Think ever really matters

12:59So I don't know

13:00Mixed emotions about

13:02This one as well

13:02So we'll have to wait

13:03And see how this plays out

13:03And then the main

13:05Piece of the evening

13:06Cody Rhodes coming out

13:07He's angry

13:07He's got a chair

13:08He wants Randy Orton

13:09He does not get

13:10Randy Orton

13:10For the first time in weeks

13:12He gets Baron Corbin

13:14Now I've been wondering

13:15What they've been doing

13:15With Corbin

13:16Because they haven't

13:16Done anything important

13:17With Corbin

13:17Since he lost

13:18The United States

13:18Championship

13:19He comes out

13:20And I love that

13:20You're putting it

13:21Up there with Cody

13:21It needs to be believable

13:24I need to see a great

13:25Set of moves out of Corbin

13:26I need to see a very

13:2750-50 match

13:28That pushes Corbin up

13:29Even though we already

13:30Know he's going to lose

13:31Which he does

13:33But not in the

13:34Traditional sense

13:34When Cody's going

13:35For a pin

13:36After a Cody cutter

13:37And all that

13:39And crossroads

13:39Drew McIntyre

13:41I said Drew McIntyre

13:42Wow

13:42Randy Orton

13:43Pulls him out of the ring

13:44Slamming him into the steps

13:45Causes a disqualification

13:46Another DQ

13:48In the same show

13:49It's kind of ridiculous

13:51So we get him out

13:53Disqualification

13:54Randy Orton's attacking Cody

13:55Cody's fighting off Randy

13:56He ends up hitting

13:57A Cody cutter on Randy

13:58It looks like he's going

13:59To punt kick Randy

14:00But Randy slides out

14:01Of the ring

14:01And as Randy goes up

14:02The entrance ramp

14:03Corbin hits the ring again

14:05Cody ends up

14:05Laying out Corbin

14:06And Randy's like

14:07You're not going to do it

14:08You're not going to do it

14:09And then he punt kicks

14:10Baron Corbin

14:11Now if I was WWE

14:12I would have played this up

14:13Like that should have

14:15Randy Orton's so good

14:16With facial expressions

14:17He should have looked scared

14:18When he saw him

14:19Actually pull the trigger

14:20And kick him in the head

14:21Because that means

14:21If he could do it to Corbin

14:22He could do it to him

14:24Or you lean into that

14:25In the next interview

14:25Where you might be able

14:26To kick Corden

14:26But he doesn't have

14:27The history we do

14:28You won't be able

14:28To do it to me

14:29Don't know where

14:30They're going to go with it

14:31But I need this feud

14:32To be over as well

14:33I like it

14:33Both guys are incredible

14:34But I need it to be over

14:36Because I need Randy

14:37To get into that

14:38World Championship picture

14:39At some point

14:39Because let's be honest

14:40He's been out of it

14:41For far too long

14:42He's clearly healthy

14:43You know

14:43Let's give him another run

14:45And Cody

14:46I need to keep him away

14:47From that Championship picture

14:48For a little bit longer

14:49And Corbin

14:50Is a great foil for now

14:51And then Trick

14:52Would be another great one

14:53There's a lot of other talents

14:54That he could work with

14:55To keep

14:56I would like to see

14:57Like Damian Priest

14:58Attack Cody

14:58Now that he's

14:59Wrap up to R-True stuff

15:01I'd love to see him

15:02Attack Cody out of nowhere

15:03It would take Cody

15:04Down a dark pathway

15:04That has nothing to do

15:05With the World Championship

15:06And then it would give

15:07Priest something

15:08Of substance to do

15:09And it instantly

15:09Elevates his character

15:10And it keeps them at bay

15:12Until we get closer

15:13To Wrestlemania season

15:14Where we gotta figure out

15:15Where all the pieces fall

15:16I don't know

15:16That's the way I look
