WWE: Bloodline Drama and Title Changes

The hosts kicked off by discussing the ongoing saga within WWE, mainly focusing on the events surrounding The Bloodline. Dave Simon highlighted the major moment of WWE Raw when Bron Breakker defeated Jey Uso for the Intercontinental Championship due to the interference of Jacob Fatu, which left fans buzzing. Simon noted, “Jay Uso refused help from his own family, which set up the chaos we saw unfold later in the night.”

This wasn’t the only dramatic twist in WWE. On SmackDown, the Motor City Machine Guns defeated DIY to become the new WWE Tag Team Champions. As Simon pointed out, “This was a big move, taking the belts off established champions to elevate a new team. It makes sense for the ongoing Bloodline storyline, but some fans may feel conflicted about it.” Johnny North, however, was more enthusiastic, adding, “It gives the SmackDown tag division fresh matchups, and the Machine Guns are a team that can deliver in any situation.”

Randy Orton’s return also stirred anticipation. Orton’s intense promo with Triple H set up a match against Kevin Owens at Crown Jewel. North expressed his excitement for the match, stating, “Randy and Kevin are both pros. This is one of the matches I’m most looking forward to. It could be a sleeper hit.”

AEW: New ROH Champion and Storyline Shake-Ups

When shifting gears to AEW, the hosts discussed the results of the AEW Dynamite. The central focus was Chris Jericho’s victory over Mark Briscoe in a brutal Ladder War to capture the ROH World Championship. Simon described the match as “the highlight of the night, with both men pushing their limits. Jericho’s still putting it all on the line.” However, North noted the use of Big Bill’s interference, commenting, “It’s classic Jericho, using his resources to get the win. Love him or hate him, he knows how to keep the spotlight.”

The episode also touched on the rising tensions within AEW, particularly MJF’s promo aimed at the Undisputed Kingdom. Simon mentioned that MJF’s challenge for the group to win three matches for a shot at his title was intriguing, saying, “It’s setting up something big for Full Gear, but we’ll see if the payoff is worth it.”

Despite these highlights, Simon and North expressed concerns about AEW’s overall direction. North noted the inconsistency in some of their booking, particularly highlighting the match between Shelton Benjamin and Sammy Guevara, stating, “Sammy getting beat down like that doesn’t do him any favours, especially after being positioned as one of AEW’s future stars.” Simon echoed this sentiment, adding, “You can’t build up someone like Sammy only to have him lose to someone who’s been around as long as Shelton. It sends mixed signals.”

Audience Reactions to the Bloodline Drama and Upcoming Matches

The fans were vocal throughout the live broadcast, sharing their thoughts on the Bloodline saga and AEW’s direction. Viewer Angelo Kontogonis commented, “The Bloodline reunion was epic. I think bringing back Sami Zayn for WarGames in Vancouver would be a killer move!” Many in the chat shared this sentiment as Canadian fans eagerly anticipated the event.

The hosts also speculated who could be the fourth man to join Roman Reigns, Jimmy Uso, and Jey Uso in the Bloodline’s Survivor Series WarGames match. Simon predicted, “I think Sami Zayn is the logical choice. The pop he’d get in Canada would be massive.” North agreed but suggested, “There might be another family member in development we haven’t seen yet.”

With Crown Jewel on the horizon, the hosts looked forward to matches like Randy Orton vs. Kevin Owens and Cody Rhodes vs. Gunther. North felt that the Cody vs. Gunther matchup could stand out, saying, “There’s going to be some shenanigans, but it’s going to be a good one.” Simon shared a similar view, expressing optimism about the card’s potential despite some predictable outcomes.

Conclusion

Overall, the week in pro wrestling provided plenty of excitement and anticipation as both WWE and AEW ramped up their storylines, heading into major events. While the Bloodline saga remains the focal point in WWE, AEW’s approach remains a mixed bag. However, with Full Gear and Crown Jewel approaching, the next few weeks promise to bring even more drama and developments.
