Now that, my friends, was a Saturday night's main event. I mean, not literally, I mean,

figuratively, I just thought sometimes you get an S&ME, which is not a disease. It's like, well, but actually last night's show made me go, oh, well, maybe I'm excited about the raw rumble, even though nobody's really talking about the raw rumble, but I'm sure we'll do that and raw. Otherwise, hello, I am Simon Miller. I am the master of the ups and downs and I will

watch professional wrestling so you don't have to, and I was wrestling last night myself. So I'm just having a great old time. No idea why I told you that. Sometimes people like to go some and you don't deserve to have an opinion, which is true, but at least I wrestle too. I don't know what I'm going on about. Let's up those doubts. Now we did kick off with Cody Rhodes versus Jacob for 2, and some people, and more power 2, you are a little bit mad, they didn't get a proper match. But again, it's Saturday night's main event. It's basically extra television. So in terms of building angle and in terms of looking forward to the rule rumble, I thought this ruled. Because Jacob 42 came out going crazy. Then Cody Rhodes came out when Jacob was like, well, I'm just going to attack you at the bell and I'm going to absolutely whip your ass. That was quite funny because why the bell didn't sound, I don't know, because we have seen so many people get booted before the off when the useless wrestling security guards came to the ring. Now, of course, this is because these two were going to brawl around the place. But if you watch wrestling and act like it's not predetermined, this was hilarious. It's like, why are you out here, useless wrestling security cards? At the moment, they're just fighting. And I don't know whether you know, but wrestling is meant to be a fight. That is why they're useless and wrestling security

guards. They're actually correct to do this though because, man, Jacob for two came off the top rope and that was terrifying because he didn't really get it in the way that he wanted to, but actually that made it look more real. Then Cody Rhodes was doing dive, they were fighting out of the announce table and they fought all around the place and they were laying their stuff in so hard because I think they wanted to get across that yes, Jacob II is a madman, but

Cody Rhodes ever since losing his WW title, well now he's got a little bit more edge. Not Adam Copeland, he went to AW. Pretty sure Rhodes were into the concrete at one point and Jacob took a trash can right in the face, but even security guards were being thrown through tables as two. So I just thought this was such a good way to make you go, oh my gosh, I can't wait to see Cody

Rhodes and Jacob and two have a proper fight, which again they will do in the Royal Rumble.

And you know what would have happened if WW had done this as a regular match?

There would have been a distraction or disqualification, whereas actually I think here coming

out the other side, Cody Rhodes feels exciting, Jacober too feels like a murderer in a good way, which is the worst thing I've ever said. I liked it. For some reason as well the whole time the useless rest security guards just followed them. I was like, why don't you actually try and stop them when they were fighting in the crowd when I think Drew McIntyre decided, well, if these guys aren't going to do it, I am.

Because man, he basically destroyed them when he picked Cody Rhodes up when they were

standing on a box-like structure and he power bombed into the floor, which means in many ways,

this was WCW from the year 2000.

And if you see somebody today and they say, well, who won between Cody Rose and Jacob for two? You can say, Drew McIntyre. I'm not kidding either. That used to happen a lot in WCW. I just thought this was excellent though, and there is nothing wrong with running an angle like this on Saturday's main event. And don't forget there are a bunch of rumors that maybe at WrestleMania is going to be Cody versus Jacob versus Drew. Well, after that, I'd be totally down for it. Like, we have to try new things even at WrestleMania. Otherwise, the product, as we like to call it, would not evolve. I am giving this an up. Mostly, I had a rollicking good time. And that's the point. Drew then, quick promo too, saying that's exactly what's going to happen. If anybody else tries to come after his w w w title that's very specific if somebody else tries to win the w w championship cody rhodes and jacobo two will have a brawl i mean whatever works when we went right into a rear rip in eoskai taking on live morgan and roxan perez and i forgot when live morgan and eoskai get in the ring oh gosh, they just kicked the ship out of each other. This one knee, they hit Eeyer Sky in the face. If there's anybody else, I would assume they were dead. But it's Eoskeye and she seems to be indestructible. Now, I'm not sure anybody expected a title change here, but one, not only did you have the whole Liv Morgan being like, excuse me, when I lost my tag team title, I didn't even do anything, I just got injured, but also Ria Ripley and Liv Morgan have all the history, and everybody in this match just knows what they're doing. So I thought this too was a barrel of laughs, and actually had one of the most creative finishes I've seen for a while. It wasn't really the finish, but basically, when Eoskeye and Rhea Ripley had this match

one, and Ria Ripley was playing defence, Rakel Roder gets teleported in from nowhere, she grabbed Ria Ripley's leg, she pulled it, meaning Ria fell on the referee, so he wasn't able to count three. Now, this got me in two ways. First, I was like, oh, I didn't see that coming.

But also, it made me go, maybe we will get a title change.

I mean, I didn't really think that.

We did make my tum-tum, I was like, oh, I didn't see that coming. But also, it made me go, maybe we will get a title change. I mean, I didn't really think that. We did make my tum-tum, I don't know, increased the percentage of about 1% which, once again, was barely a sentence. But usually WW only does that because the other team is going to win. I liked it a lot. And then it got even better because Stephanie for Cares music hit, because why wouldn't you want to let someone you're about to ambush them? She had a big old fight for Raqa Rodriguez, so I presume that's now good for WrestleMania as well. I met the Royal Rumble, so I've totally screwed up. But honestly, in terms of a five-minute period, it was super duper fun. We also had Liv Morgan reversing the rip tired and hitting code breakers for a one-two, And actually, I think Liv Morgan may be about to win the Raw Rumble, because do you know who took the pin here? It was Elizabeth Morgan. Sometimes you'd be like, I can't believe that WW did this, but also it's something that WW does love to do, like with the money in the bank briefcase. So many times in the past, when they've chosen someone to win that damn thing, it will just be lose, lose, lose, lose, because they know as

soon as they do have the damn thing, everything's going to be all right. Most of the time

they're correct. And yes, look, we did have E.E.O. Sky kick out the pop rocks as well, but actually,

I think that was meant to happen, because Roxanne hit it and Rear Ripley practically broke it up at 3.1. She was so damn late. So I imagine Eo thought, well, I don't want to lose here because that's not the story of the match. It doesn't matter. Mistakes happen. When you watch the damn thing back, it actually raises your adrenaline, for lack of a better word, because you can see Rear Ripley being desperate. I'm happy to suspend my

disbelief. It doesn't matter. People do kick out finishes too much, but that is not what we were doing here. Roxanne then did try to use that to her advantage by creating commotion when Lim Morgan tagged in, because she was like, oh boy, I'm going to hit Oblivion. She didn't notice that Rear Ripley had also tagged in.

She hit the Reptile and got the one, two, three.
