WWE Raw Talk

It’s a very positive Raw Talk, bro!

Ahead of major title opportunities on next week’s Monday Night Raw, Matt Riddle and the New Day are here to talk about their victories this week! What will the Bro, Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods have to say?

 

R-Truth and Kevin Patrick welcome us back to the show!

Charly Caruso is out again, but newest Raw correspondent, Kevin, is excited to be here alongside the legendary Truth! Truth says he’s doing great for his first day, but he wants to come up with a catchy nickname first. Kevin asks Truth if he’s wearing green for Kevin because Kevin’s Irish. Turns out now, sure. But they go for the handshake. Kevin wants a warning. You miss on purpose, come back to get it, then hit it to finish. Boom! Little flick at the end? Sure, why not. Well, they’re probably delayed and off because of how Raw ended.

Alexa Bliss keeps messing with Randy Orton, and now Kevin can’t get her out of his head! Kevin would hate to know what Orton’s feeling. Congrats to AJ Styles, but Alexa had a role to play. Truth tells #KP that Alexa is scary! Kevin says it’s sadistic. Truth likes that word! What does it mean, though? Well she’s ruthless, cold-blooded. When Alexa is out for you, you’re done. Yeah look what she did to Orton! Does this mean The Fiend is coming back? Truth isn’t so sure. Kevin says Truth is sitting on the fence there. Yeah, but if he sits on the fence, he can’t be burned down. Truth doesn’t want to have Fiend come around, he’s not about that, but that was why Orton lost. But why did Alexa do it?

Well that’s why Kevin is asking. Well Truth doesn’t talk about them. Truth may have problems, but Alexa has problems. Then may Kevin ask about Bobby Lashley? Truth said last week that he got “lost in the moment” when Lashley won and finally became WWE World Champion after 16 years. Lashley beat Miz in a rematch but Miz should’ve just stayed away. Truth loves that Kevin did the homework. They do the handshake again, but if you snap the fingers, snap the fingers. Right, sorry. Truth says Lashley’s moment was a good moment. But everyone’s after Lashley now.

Then what did the win tonight mean? Showcasing his strength and agility, and his determination, he isn’t letting the title go any time soon. Truth says the title finally brought out what was in Lashley all along. And that entrance goes hard! Can Kevin say that? “It was hard!” Truth and Kevin compare accents, they’re like accent cousins. But the match was epic for Lashley as he put Miz in the Hurt Lock. Lashley is heading to Fastlane and WrestleMania, Kevin is excited to see what’s in store for him, and the former champion, Drew McIntyre. That match with Sheamus did not end well. No winner! Truth says those stairs are heavy, and they don’t feel good.

Kevin wants Truth to explain more for the WWE Universe. What else goes through your mind when it comes to those stairs? Besides the stairs themselves, perhaps. Well, Truth’s soul probably goes through him when he gets hit with those. They hurt, leave scars inside and out. Just look how hard McIntyre and Sheamus went! They’re not wrestling, they’re beating each other up! Kevin asks a serious question. Would Truth ever do that to a former friend? No, not necessarily, but Truth doesn’t come from where these two are coming from. That’s deep rooted stuff, gotta stay out of that business, KP. Just saying, McIntyre and Sheamus have problems that Truth won’t get in between. 20 YEARS, and they’re beating each other up!

McIntyre wants the world title back, but Kevin is plumped to have the TEN-TIME W, W, E, World, Tag, Team CHAMPIONS~ here!

The New Day join Raw Talk!

Kofi Kingston and Truth are hyped for what Xavier Woods did tonight! But who the heck is this? Kevin Patrick?! Woods hasn’t met someone new in over a year so this is great! Truth says Kevin is his. This is KP, K-Peezy! Kevin likes that. Truth is alright with that, but it’s time to sit down and stuff. Right, sorry, they just wanted to get to know K-Peezy! Wait are they asking Kevin stuff now? Truth says Kevin is the host right now, this is his show, he should try and take charge. Kevin admits that’s true. But Woods asks where Kevin is from. Dublin, Ireland. he’s Dublin up on you! HAH! Is he a fan of Sheamus? Yeah. FELLA~!

Truth asks if that’s where Sheamus is from, too. He is. Where is McIntyre from? Scotland. Woods is impressed, Kevin did his homework. Well done, K-Peezy. Fist bumps! But Kevin says Woods and Kofi got the scooter and made it a pogo stick. Well it’s the nomenclature: that was the bunny hop. Shout out to R-Willy the scooter enthusiast. The New Day are bros with the Bro, and if you know, you know. Kofi did like he did back in the day, but the footage cuts away? Aw. Truth says he’s a bit annoyed by bunnies right now. Namely Bugs Bunny and Bad Bunny. They’re tripping. Is he Elmer Fudding? Sorta, kinda. Is it hunting season for that wascally wabbit? Well the wabbit has his baby!

But moving on to the win for New Day was that they’re getting a championship match to get ack their, W, W, E, Raw, Tag, Team, CHAMPIONSHIPS~! K-Peezy, show them hips! KP gets up and he starts gyrating and riding! Go, cowboy! HR did well! Kevin wants to talk about net week about that great match, though. Yeah, the title match was put in even before tonight’s match, so tonight was all about momentum. Kofi says that was a team-up. Kevin asks how crucial it is this close to Mania. ELEVEN time, are we getting it? Yes, and then at Raymond James Stadium, they walk in champions.

Woods says the Hurt Business has kept things warm for them but the oven is preheated and the New Day puts the turkey in it. And then when they put the turkey in, they will once again be W. W. E. World. Tag. Team. Champions. This is a good table. But the New Day turned the tables on K-Peezy! The world needs to know who Kevin is! Round of applause for K-Peezy on his first night! CLAP IT UP!! The studio was clapping, real claps! Not machines, real human clapping! Welcome to the family, Kevin. Kevin is excited for next week, Woods is excited to sending Ol’ Man Benjamin to Shady Pines! But Kevin says it’s time to move on. Oh he’s laying down the law, huh? Kevin makes sure to plug the NEW~ DAY~! Sweet. But abuse your power and throw them out! Okay, then, get out! OOF!

But from 10-time men’s tag team champions to someone who won the Women’s Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania, it is the Venus Flytrap!

Peyton Royce joins Raw Talk!

Peyton says hello, and makes sure she has Kevin’s name right. Truth says she can call him K-Peezy if she wants. Well alright, K-Peezy. But Peyton will make his first day real easy. Just sit there and look nice. Same for you, Truth. Okay. Because Peyton is setting this straight once and for all! Peyton has been quiet for too long, “because closed mouths don’t get paid.” Peyton isn’t here to hide her talents, her talents are being hidden behind the opinions of others. She wants management to just let her loose and see what she can do! The Raw Women’s Champion, Asuka, is hurt and that sucks for Asuka. But when a talent goes down, a spot opens up. That spot is massive. So why not Peyton? Why is it always the same old same old?!

Peyton says she packed up her life, moved across the world and set up in a different country with barely a support system, all to chase this dream. To what? Get stuck in the back watching others do what she does better than, say, 98% of them? As for the remaining 2%, she’d still give them a run for their money! Peyton says it hurts when you know deep down you are destined to be where you are, striving for what you feel you deserve. Her potential haunts her. She takes a moment to compose herself before finishing her thought. “This is where I’m meant to be. And my patience has been running thin for quite some time. So stop wasting my time and give me Asuka!”

Mic drop and Peyton is out! Truth and Kevin are in awe of that right there. Peyton is determined and hungry and feels bypassed. Truth says that’s on K-Peezy. What? No! Hey, Truth is the sidekick here. But did Peyton have a point? Yes, a lot of them. And that fire is fitting because today is International Women’s Day! Watch the WWE Network exclusive, “Heaven,” about Heaven Fitch, a young woman from North Carolina. But from Heaven to the Bro, it’s the United States Champion!

Matt Riddle joins Raw Talk!

The energy turns back up as Kevin says hey and meets Riddle for the first time. But Kevin asks about New Day kinda taking advantage of Riddle there. What does he mean? Well, Riddle had them watch his scooter and then they made it kinda their scooter. Well, a scooter isn’t just for riding. You can do tricks. Has Riddle seen his scooter since? No, but he did see that bunny hop. Pogo sticks are very different, Riddle has one at home. But it’s great to have all kinds of tools and toys and be a stallion.

Kevin says Riddle is always all smiles, does he feel great tonight? Yeah, Riddle beat Slapjack, has Travito on his arm. But next week, Riddle VS Mustafa ALi for this title, Riddle’s first defense. Bro, Riddle can’t wait. Ali is the perfect first opponent, because… Why? Well, because Ali is a stud. He brings it, is a contender, and no one can lead a group of hosses like that. Slapjack hits hard, too, almost bent Riddle backwards. They don’t play games, and Ali is the leader! But is Riddle worried about the numbers. Not in the Bro’s favor, but Air Bud inspired Riddle because no one thought he could do it. Riddle did the impossible by getting the belt off Bobby Lashley. It could be all of Retribution, Riddle will put the beating on them all and retain the title!

Truth is pumped and so is Kevin! It feels like Riddle is the perfect guy to get in Ali’s head. Riddle’s UFC career and high school wrestling, his smile made them think he’s all cocky, but he’s just having the time of his life. Yeah there’s rules and regulations and they get to unleash, and there’s nothing greater than that. And the belt looks great on Riddle. But when you’re out there, Mama Riddle says if you give 100%, you don’t leave unhappy. As long as Riddle gives 110%, 120% or more, he’ll be good. Truth likes that, too! No need for these notes, either! HAH!

Riddle wants Truth and him to do something because of their chemistry. Kevin sees it, too. So their auras are all in sync, and if they combine, it’s like… BOOOOMF! Mind-blowing. Just imagine! US Champion, Truth gets back the 24/7 Championship, and then they win… tag team championships! And then they’re double champion bros! Riddle is planting a seed, it could grow! Put some water on that, take some time to grow it, it could happen! Truth used to be a gardener! They’re ready to grow something! Double champion bros! Kevin likes that idea, too. The music is playing, quick fist bumps, #TopBros here, mate! YEAH!

Kevin and Truth do their handshake again, the show is over and it was a lot of fun as Mania grows closer! Thoughts and prayers, see you next Raw Talk!


My Thoughts:

A really fun episode here, though I am a little worried about Charly. Is she just on top secret COVID concern quarantine? It has been two weeks. But Kevin Patrick makes a great debut here to continue his small parts on tonight’s Raw. Kevin had great energy with Truth and the guests, I kinda hope K-Peezy gets to do more of these, as good as Charly is when she hosts. New Day had a lot of energy as usual, and we got some more for the coming title match. Peyton Royce was strong in her promo here. I said for the Raw article that Peyton should get in on the contender’s chase, I have a feeling she could end up swooping in for Fastlane, but I still see Mania being Charlotte VS Asuka.

Riddle also had good energy, but he always does, too. I think it’s very interesting that he teased a team with Truth and then going on a Two Man Power Trip, if you will. bRo-Truth, True Bros, whatever they come up with, would be a very entertaining duo but I don’t know if they’d end up getting near the tag titles. Granted, WWE does need to bolster up their tag division for both men and women, but I think that should be through more getting established teams like Ever-Rise, the Bollywood Boyz, etc. from NXT and 205 Live going on the other brands.

Chairshot News Report: TNA Impact Results, AEW Speculation For Ricochet & Shane McMahon, Vince McMahon, More!

Your Wrestling News for July 5, 2024, including TNA Impact, Ricochet, Shane McMahon, his daddy Vince, and more!

WWE Ricochet AEW

Your Wrestling News for July 5, 2024, including TNA Impact, Ricochet, Shane McMahon, his daddy Vince, and more!

Welcome to your daily dose of pro wrestling news–and analysis you can trust! We take all wrestling news with a grain of salt here at The Chairshot, and we hope to steer you in the right direction.

Results: TNA Impact (July 4, 2024)

Here are your results from Thursday night’s edition of TNA Impact (originally taped on June 28 at the 2300 Arena in Philly):

  • Trey Miguel vs. Leon Slater ends in a no-contest after WWE NXT star Charlie Dempsey attacks everyone.
  • Dani Luna battled Jody Threat to a time limit draw in the 10-Minute Challenge. They were granted the customary “5 more minutes” but were attacked by Alisha Edwards & Masha Slamovich. During the match it was revealed that Nic Nemeth had been attacked backstage.
  • Frankie Kazarian defeated Mike Santana by countout to advance to the TNA World Championship Match at Slammiversary.
  • Matt Hardy & Reby Hardy beat Eddie Edwards & Alisha Edwards.
  • Joe Hendry pinned Jake Something to advance to the TNA World Championship Match at Slammiversary.

No surprise that Joe Hendry advanced to the world title match, but Santana-Kazarian could have gone either way. A promo video to end the show implied that Kazarian was the one who took out Nic Nemeth backstage, seemingly creating a story for them within the Slammiversary title match. No shocker that The Hardys won the tag team match, but a great surprise with Charlie Dempsey getting involved in the opener. That TNA/NXT collaboration continues to be a lot of fun.

You can catch Andrew’s Review of the event here.

Ricochet Expected To Sign With AEW

Many outlets are reporting that Ricochet’s expected landing spot remains AEW, with additional reports surfacing that his agent has been working out the details on his behalf.

Personally, I’d rather see him back in WWE. Even after an initial push in AEW, he will be a novelty act much like PAC, so I don’t see the difference. But if he’s going to AEW, here’s hoping that agent does a great job and secures quite the bag for ol’ Ric.

Vince Russo Suggests Shane McMahon As A Front Man For Vince McMahon to Purchase AEW

”We saw this with WCW, it happened before. It (purchasing AEW) could be under the guise of Shane, that’s what I’m saying. Shane is as clean as whistle. Vince could be behind it without anybody knowing it, bro.”

Those are the words of Vince Russo, who on the surface seems to be spouting nonsense. Time will tell if there is something to it all, but I wouldn’t place any wagers on this one. Shane McMahon to AEW would be an entertaining shocker, but that–like many things in AEW–would quickly wear off.

Shawn Michaels Discusses NXT Releases, Referencing Drew Gulak

During the NXT Heatwave media call, Shawn Michaels was asked about the release of Gable Steveson, but also lumped Drew Gulak in his response about main roster viability:

“From my understanding, nothing on anyone’s part other than contracts being up. Certainly, in the place of Drew Gulak. From a company standpoint, there not being anything from a main roster standpoint that they were going to be using him in. In NXT, over the last year and a half to two years, we’ve been trying to get into the process of keeping it fluid. It’s all about getting to the main roster when everything is said and done. In two or three years, if that doesn’t happen, we bring other people in or see if we’re ready to move on.”

If anything, it’s a stark reminder that NXT still exists to, above all else, populate the main roster. It’s quite the delicate balance between booking your own television show and preparing for the future, one that HBK has arguably done better than Triple H himself.

Other Odds & Ends:

  • According to reports, the mini-stroke referenced by Britt Baker (DMD) on AEW Dynamite is legitimate. If so, both she and Adam Cole have been through a ton over the past 24 months.
  • Mason Madden (Mace) and Mansoor, now known as the MxM Collection, showed up in ROH when featured in a vignette on this week’s broadcast. They might not have made it in WWE, but it’s good to see them getting work, and a second chance to make this gimmick their own. YEAH!
  • Cody Rhodes continues to be the ultimate good dude, this time helping a fan who won tickets to Money In The Bank actually attend the event. The fan who won the tickets is in a wheelchair, and there were no more accessible seats left. That was, of course, until Cody got involved. Now the fan can be there and enjoy the show as intended when he won the contest. Cody wins again!

AEW Coverage

Mitchell’s AEW Continental Classic Update! (11/27/23)

What a start to the tournament!

Published

on

Did your picks win points?

The AEW Continental Classic is underway, with almost everyone competing. Check in here if you haven’t seen the winners and losers of week 1!

Here are your Gold League standings!

  • Jon Moxley: 1-0, 3 points
  • Swerve Strickland: 1-0, 3 points
  • Jay White: 1-0, 3 points
  • Rush: 0-1, 0 points
  • Mark Briscoe: 0-1, 0 points.
  • Jay Lethal: 0-1, 0 points

 

Here are your Blue League standings!

  • Brody King: 1-0, 3 points
  • Claudio Castagnoli: 1-0, 3 points
  • Daniel Garcia: 0-1, 0 points
  • Eddie Kingston: 0-1, 0 points
  • Bryan Danielson: Yet to Compete
  • Andrade El Idolo: Yet to Compete

 

My Thoughts:

Nothing too crazy, nothing too wild, this tournament only just got started. The only disappointing point is that they could not get Bryan “cleared to compete” Saturday night. Not sure how much of that is shoot given the bad eye, but this was kinda the problem of wanting him in the tournament over tons of other choices. Bryan wants to face Okada for WrestleKingdom 18, how is Bryan supposed to do that at his best if he’s also gonna be in a round robin, doing five top level matches in about as many weeks? And it takes away from Andrade being able to do something. Also a little surprised we didn’t even hear from Andrade on Saturday.

Now as we heard on Saturday, round two’s matches are set. Gold League will see Mark Briscoe VS Rush, White VS Swerve, and of course, Moxley VS Lethal. Nice variety there, a couple 0-1 guys facing off, as well as two 1-0 guys, and then 1-0 VS 0-1. No offense to Lethal, but he feels like an 0-2 going up against Moxley. Hard to call the other ones but that’s the fun of it. Meanwhile, Blue League sees Brody VS Claudio in a showdown to be 2-0, then Bryan and Andrade finally jump in, Bryan against Eddie and Andrade against Garcia. Sadly, feels like Eddie and Garcia are going 0-2, no way Tony Khan is booking Bryan and Andrade to lose their first shots.

In fact, that could be half the reason they did wait on those two, that’s almost too good for just a first round opener. But I still would’ve done it, same as NJPW does stuff like that for round robins, which this is all modeled after anyway.
