Summary
Just minutes after WWE Clash of Champions went off the air, Brian Campbell and Adam Silverstein convened to break down the entire pay-per-view in a loaded podcast. The guys discuss The Fiend appearing in the final seconds, failed Superman-level booking for Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston, the surprise return of Luke Harper, why Becky Lynch-Sasha Banks was such a home run and whether a PPV like this is acceptable with WWE failing to deliver anything memorable despite 10 titles being on the line. BC and The Silver King also preview the debut of NXT on USA Network by welcoming Paul "Triple H" Levesque (1:00:45) to discuss what the show will look like on cable TV, whether Vince McMahon will be involved and what he has to say about competition going head-to-head with the yellow brand. Also joining the show is "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels (1:25:19), who talks about his new role as a NXT coach, returning for one big match and why the third part of his professional wrestling career is making such an impact on his life. This is a show you do not want to miss!
