Hello and welcome to the What Culture Wrestling podcast.

I'm Michael Hanford from What Culture and I'm joined by, well, nobody today.

It's the last week before Christmas here in the UK.

I'm sure many of you now are ready to take time off for your holidays.

I'm sure many of you might indeed even be working over this busy holiday festive period.

And I just thought as I'm in for the last few days before we probably shut at the offices over

Christmas, that what I would do is a little bit of a wrap-up.

This is not going to be a Smackdown review, as you won't have seen on the podcast labelling.

This is not going to be a raw preview, more a bit of a wrap-up of everything that's

been going on across Smackdown and then into Raw over this weekend.

What I'm going to do this week, because I'm in for the next couple of days, just to kind of let

you know what the plans are, at least, is to do a bit of a wrap-up of the show that's just

happened, a preview of the want to come, and then any kind of other little news and notes that might be related to that.

There will be spoilers at the very end of this podcast.

So for today's, for example, we're going to just run down very briefly what happened on

Friday's Smackdown, then preview chronologically what's going to take place on tonight's

raw. And then I'll end it with some spoilers of what took place on, well, this Friday's

Smackdown. It's not one we're going to be able to preview and review. So it'll just be a bit

of a news and notes thing, very sort of loose, very bullet point type thing. I'm staring currently

at the gorgeous studio lights of our brand new facilities,

but I don't have the technical ability to put the cameras on myself.

So that's why it's just going to be a little bit back to basics this week.
