Hey, friendo, Steve here.

And welcome back to Going and Raw, the only pro wrestling podcast you need to be listening to on today's episode.

You've got a strange look on your face.

Is something wrong with the stream right now?

No, I just realized I got it it my microphone is casting a shadow on my sweatshirt so it's this tn a i mean there's not

a dozen shadows behind me all right good as long as the stream is going good everything's going good

wb raw was tonight the raw for the rumble where roman

rains made his decision yeah and it's not drew magentire they know as matt from assemble show here

says in the youtube chat they really crapped all over drew they did i mean that's that's consistent

thing with roman i suppose um if anybody suffers apparently from punk derangement syndrome, it ain't me.

It's Roman Raines.

Yeah, you guys have that in common, man.

No, we don't.

I don't dislike Phil whatsoever.

I like that he put that.

I didn't even notice on the bag of his shirt until you told me. Oh, yeah. That's the first thing I noticed when they went back of his shirts. I said, does that say Phil is the best in the world? It says Phil is the best in the world. I like that he's embracing to shoot first name. And you know, when you get like at his age, which our age you know you got a punk ah you know

an old punk no he's phil now he's still see him phil uh so anyways roman rains chose

c m punk sort of makes all the sense in the world given their history their history with

paul haman uh the question i had was what's the motivation and boy, I thought that promo tonight, I thought that was pretty decent in terms of motivation, establishing stuff. I really enjoyed the promo tonight. Once it got going, yeah. I mean, they kind of took their time getting there, but once they got to the Y, yeah, it picked up. And I thought Romans kind of punctuating bit really brought it home

in terms of delivering the passion, the intensity, and the why.

And ultimately, just comes down to he doesn't like punk.

I mean, there's more to it, but that's ultimately he said, you know, I could choose you for these reasons,
