Welcome to the Busted Open Podcast. This is the Busted Open Podcast. You can listen to the full show Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon Eastern on serious XM Fight Nation Channel 156.

This is Denise Salcedo with the World Strongest Man Mark Henry and this is the weekend's edition of the Busted Open Podcast.

On today's show, we're breaking down the braw between J.U. so Paul Heyman and Salcedo Koa on SmackDown.

We'll also discuss the U.S. Title Invitational. Is it Ali Knight's time to become champ?

And we talk about the chaos surrounding the WWE Women's Championship. You won't want to miss it.

The big takeaway from this is that Paul Heyman once again continues to try to manipulate both Jimmy and Jay right by getting in the hands of both of them and trying to turn them against each other.

However, based on the actions that we have already been seeing the week's prior, it's already crystal clear that Jimmy and Jay's bond is not breakable. In fact, it's unbreakable.

It's been very, it's been made clear. It was made clear the second that Jimmy super kicked a Roman and then Jay had to do his whole decision.

And when he finally decided, hey, I'm going to be with my brother. At that point, it became an unbreakable bond between he and Jimmy.

And then on top of that, you have last week, the second he decided to come out there and snap an attack solo and attack Roman and challenge Roman.

At that point, he became a different kind of man. And so you're right in the sense that this week, I think we should have seen Jay Uso be the one to have the upper hand on Paul Heyman to maybe make Paul Heyman a little bit scared.

A little bit, I think Paul, I don't, I think he could have gone in there a lot more. Yes, a lot more because I feel like I came out of this going, oh, well, look at Paul Heyman, he's added again manipulating the brothers.

Yeah, and I also feel like at some point, somebody's going to have to point out to Roman, what it looks like again, they showed him a little bit, you know, look at you.

How you treat us, how you talk to us and yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.

So now I want to see somebody go, Roman, you, you become Darth Vader.

And Paul Heyman is the Emperor. He's the real tribal chief, you're just an enforcer.

You have to reverse mind-melt Roman reigns to him to start to kick out and see it.

And Paul, no, no, my tribal chief, I'm not, and I'll do all this thing.

Everybody know the story of Darth Vader?

The Emperor was the one that was pulling the strings, getting him to do his bidding.

He's not valuable killing.

Lincoln didn't want to kill anybody, but the Emperor made him do it, convinced him to do it.
