0:00.0	Wrestling suit is intended for a mature audience.
0:11.0	Wrestling suit, I'm Anthony Thomas. He is Kevin Castle.
0:15.0	But on Raw Monday, one of the big problems I had, and I'm very curious because I didn't get a chance to listen to you and Don Tony, but what were your thoughts on the CM Punk promo that he cut on Drew about
0:27.2	the upcoming bad blood?
0:29.8	His serious man promo?
0:32.4	Yeah.
0:33.3	I thought it was good.
0:34.5	I mean, he also was in NXT last night, surprisingly.
0:39.2	Yes, he was.
0:40.5	That was a little bit more lighthearted.
0:43.1	Yeah, they really got him doing a lot.
0:44.8	I mean, they're trying to really get, I get their money's worth from him, which is cool.
0:50.0	I thought it was a good promo.
0:51.2	I mean, again, it was a serious promo, the tone.
0:58.9	Him and Drew's feud, I mean, is probably the most serious feud,
1:04.3	consistent programming of two guys and they never waver and there's always a new twist and turn every week.

1:26.4	has to win it and i think that uh you know i think his promos have been good. I think, again, that you don't want to push this to further exhaustion. I think the match coming up, let's close this out. And I think it's going to be, I even mentioned to Don Tony, just making a prediction, that it'll be something where they're both leaning on the cage and Sampunk falls out first. So Drew doesn't look bad. You know what I'm saying? So he's not like conquered Drew and Drew's lying there bloody. I think Siam Punk will just squeak out of victory. And because again, Drew is still the future. Punk is long in the tooth in his career.
2:03.0	Drew's got, you know, 10 years as junior. So, again, I think that's the way it's going to go. I don't think he's going to put his foot on Drew and Drew's a bloody mess. And Sam Punk walks out of there, spits on the floor. I think it's going to be close, you know. It's going to be close. But you would think that if you listen to his promo on Monday,
