All right, who wants to start raw ups and downs off as negative nancy's?

I don't sometimes we have to, because Jay Huso did come out to kick off the big opening

raw promo. I don't think we need to do his entrance twice every single time.

Like I understand it's great for the live crowd and sometimes you should play to them before

you play to anybody else, but there is technically, well not even technically, there is more people watching at home. This was the first time I was like, it's been like 12 minutes and nothing has happened on Raw. Because we had a video package before this too. I don't know, man. Maybe I'm just being an old grumpy man who is yelling out of cloud. But sometimes when I sit down with my pro wrestling, I just want us to get on with it. Also, hello, my friends, what are Oppos and Downs? The Only Wrestling Review Show You Need with me, Simon Miller the bald idiot. And that's right. Once again, thank you very much to NordVPN, who are doing a deal right now down there in the description. NordVPN.com forward slash what culture? Not only will you be able to watch your wrestling when you do go abroad

and there's a money bank guarantee. So if you're like, I do not like using NordVPN,

where you get your money back. But I can tell you will love it because everybody loves it. Right, everybody, let's get ready because it's time to review Monday Night, Rock. Now, eventually, Jay Uso did start talking with the microphone and he was like, listen, I'm not listening to my brother Jimmy anymore. I'm not listening to Roman Reigns. I am not even going to listen to my mama or their mama or somebody's mama. I was getting a bit worried because if he'd been allowed to continue on this, eventually he would have said, I'm not even going to listen to the fire department and then what are you going to do, Jay? You're going to be on fire. You know you're meant to ring 911 or 999 in the UK and you're going to die because you didn't ring because you didn't want to listen

Punk interrupted and I thought oh it's okay he'll tell him about this and stop being a silly billy but I actually was like well this is great noise you shouldn't listen to Jimmy and you shouldn't listen to little Roman which was some reason as a horrible insult it's like dude now you agree you don't want him to listen to people either. I tell you, I'm done. Somebody's going to be a set of place.

And the whole idea is that actually CM Punk likes Jay Uso, and he even referenced the fact you threw your brother over the top rope last week in that battle rule, and I think that was a good thing to do. This is when the fans went, boo, boo, boo, because we're preconditioned to do such things, and punk was like, no, you absolute goobers, he did it in a nice way. That's the whole point of the match, but it just goes to show. Come this Saturday night at S&M, it is me versus Jay, and I've got to put my best foot forward. His whole point, though, was how far are you willing to go, Jay, because I need this title more than I need the air

that I breathe. Said this before, my hand went up again. I was like, listen, CM Punk, I understand

what you're getting at here. But if you actually did pick the championship over oxygen, you would die.

A lot of death references so far in this episode. So then even you would be laying on the floor

with the belt next to you,

you wouldn't be able to appreciate it because you were dead. And also it is pro wrestling. They just have a tournament and somebody would be champion anyway. Pung then said there's no way Jay Uso can yeeked his way out of this situation. It's like, that's a very strange sentence when you do come to think about it. And this is where Jay took the microphone and he had a

bit of attitude to him, dare I say edge, not Adam Copeland, because he went to AW. He was like, don't you try and make me out to be the bad guy, Mr. C. Munk. I told you I ain't listening to anybody anymore. So I'm going to that thing. I'm going to become a double champion. and there ain't nothing you or anybody else can do about it,

because I am the best in the world.

Then I think he did say yeat, which kind of proof CM Punk's point. So I do understand the argument, maybe we could have done a little bit more here, but as WW are scrambling, given that Seth Rollins did get injured and that wasn't in the plans, I actually thought that was quite decent. I thought Jay Uso came across as,

oh, you're interesting Jay, what's going on here, and I can't pick it. Like I presume that CN Punk is going to win, but you could give it to Jay Uso and that would be fine. Although actually, after the events of Raw, I think we're going to get shenanigans and we ain't going to have a proper the new world champion after satized main event and is that going to annoy me? Yes it is. You know what I'm going to do? Nothing because it's just wrestling and it doesn't matter. But I am going to give it an up. Like, there could have been a bit more sauce on the steak, but there was something intriguing about it. And actually, apart from the double entrance, it didn't go that long. Dominic was then sad because, of course, Penta and Ruseb are going to be coming after his Intercontinental Title Championship, depending on who does win their number one contender match. Well, he turned to Finn Baller and J.D. McDone. He said, please, will you help me? And they said, no, we're not going to help you. Do you know why we're not the tag team champions right now? It's you. You absolute condom. Roxanne, as always, was happy to assist, but Raquel Rodriguez was like, no, you have a match with Nikki Bella later. She didn't say it like that, although it is Halloween. And for all I know, maybe she thinks Nikki Bella's a gosh. So essentially now the Judgment Day has become a group, but they only worry about their own things, which is based like every major corporation in 2025. I do think we have to pull the trig on this eventually. Maybe it's just gone a little bit too long, but it does feel like we're getting there. And listen, we do set up a lot for next week, so maybe it's all coming to a head. It was right into this Penton versus Rusev number one contender match as well, and we put a one on the dick board, and actually, WW went crazy with dicks on this show, which is not a sentence you want to say. There was too much distraction, interference, confusion for this bald man's taste, but we'll get to it. as you all did tie in, because at the end of that Judgment Day segment, Dom McMisterio gone fine. If you're not going to help me, I'll call someone at first because I am a nerd. I thought this was going to be some kind of long-term storytelling because Liv Morgan will be back sooner or later. Even if it was months down the line, you can start teasing it. and when she comes back, you're going to be a baby face. And Dom is absolutely going to be a baby face soon. But nope. He wrong, El Grande Americano and friends. Because towards the end of this, they just ran out and they beat up Pinto and Rousseb. I understand why WW has to do that because wrestling is predetermined. But I was like, if you were in the building, why did it take you 10 minutes to get to the ring? And if you weren't in the building and Dominic called you, and that's when you left for the show, how the hell did you get there so fast? It was well timed in the sense that Roussev and Penta were hitting all of their one-two-oo moves to make you go, oh, I don't know who's going to win.

Like Rousseff kicked out the Penta driver, but then, yes, El Grande-Americano one, El Grande-Americano two, and El Grande-Americano three, just thrust the ring. The ref was like, I'm right here, you goobers. I'm calling it to no contest. Also make sure you put one on the dive counter because Penton was doing that as well.

And yes, later on Alan Pierce found dominant Mysterio and said your plan. calling it no contest. Also make sure you put one on the dive counter because Penton was doing that as well
