MENGENAI EPISOD INI
John Cena came out at Monday's Raw in Brooklyn to finally explain the John Cena Classic, six months after announcing it at Backlash. Cody Rhodes is the first entrant, the new title was unveiled, and the tournament lands on December 14, the day WWE runs two Raws: one in Perth and one at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex at Walt Disney World. JDFromNY calls it a walking advertisement, and both hosts take aim at fan voting going through Club WWE, a $99-a-year membership. Coach, who hosted the first Diva Search, has thoughts on how fan votes go.
Then Sami Zayn and Roman Reigns' face-to-face ahead of their champion vs. champion match at Crown Jewel, Cruz Montana as the newest member of The 946, and who rounds out The Bloodline for WarGames: Jacob Fatu or Zilla Fatu. After the break, NXT moves to Wednesday head-to-head with AEW's Blood & Guts, with CM Punk challenging Grayson Waller, and Coach tells the story of arguing with one of Tony Khan's PR people.
The guys break down WWE's Perth week and ask whether anything feels important anymore, whether Raw at Disney is ESPN's idea, and what Hollywood means for Roman, Cody, Drew McIntyre and the Street Fighter box office. The Kick Out: Crown Jewel is four days away, moved indoors and barely mentioned on Raw. Takes are the hosts' opinions.
