Welcome to the Busted Open Podcast. This is the Busted Open Podcast. You can listen to the full show Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon eastern on serious XM Fight Nation Channel 156.

Yeah, welcome in pro wrestling fans Busted Open Nation. We are here on a weekend time for the Saturday edition of Busted Open. I'm your weekend host Ryan McKinnell got the world's strongest man to Hall of Famer.

Mark Henry along for the ride and thank goodness we do because we are taking a deep dive into what we saw last night on Friday night a returning Kevin Owens to the world of WWE.

That's right. He is the last entering into war games. And what does that mean for next weekend? Well tune in and you will find out and it wouldn't be a weekend edition of Busted Open. If we didn't give you weekly winner for the best show that was in the week of professional wrestling.

So sit back, relax. Click play. Let's get it going. It's busted open on a Saturday.

This is going to make for some very interesting banter going forward. Yeah, you think Roman Reigns is going to be like listen, you don't speak for bloodline unless I tell you to.

And your friend, you're going to get the prove to me your allegiance. Yeah.

So by what you do as it relates to your friend feels like it could be coming to a head at work.

Oh shit.

We have got something brewing that is so wrestling centric that you can't miss. You can't miss with this one.

He's so left up the interpretation. Like there's no interpretation with this. It's, are you with me? Are you against me? Are you with him? Are you with us?

Just straight down and they've been building to it perfectly. Yes, it's simple. Right. But this is something bully and everyone talks about right kids. Keep it simple, stupid. Yeah. Keep it simple. This is easy. This is allegiance. This is friendship. This is decades of friendship and trust and honor and all those things.

Right, literal honors. Shout out to ring honor, right? Like they this is this has been brewing and building for so long outside of the WWE either, right?

And like now it's meeting and coming to a head not just a survivor series, which is a pay-per-view that's been lacking over the last many, many years. The meaning just doesn't, you know, it's not holding like it used to, right?

The brand split all that. It didn't mean what war games is going to mean war games means, you know, means means venom. It means beef means violence means blood.

And what better way to come to a head to a rivalry again? And I feel like this has to do more with, and I love the story that they're telling with the brawling broods and Drew McIntyre. This is really, it's the Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens war games.

And I know and they're crazy to think about like with the bloodline and Roman reigns. And I mean, that's the tribal chief, not only is that the tribal chief, that's a dude that's been doing it for like three years. It's like the longest reigning champion of our modern era, right? And like, we're still, this is the Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens show, like holy shit.

You know what this reminds me of. And only the die hard 50 year old 45 year old karate fans are going to get this reference. There was a movie called Long Wolf and Cub. It was banned in America, miss me with that. I don't know.

It was banned in America in 83 85, like you could, if you got caught with you, you're probably going to jail. What? Yeah, that's, that's how.

Like explicit and vulgar and just, I mean, you see it on TV now. What's the name of this? It's called Long Wolf and Cub. Show guns assassin.

Okay.

And this karate movie got to the point to where the show gun was so fearful of his number one ace that he put a hit on him to kill him.
