If you've been paying attention, you should know that The Black Rasslin' Podcast has added Davis aka Davey Boy Drip aka PG-13 to the squad as our resident stat guy. We've been keeping the stats to the social media posts, but wanted to switch things up a bit and throw his stats (and some additives) onto the site. Oh, this week's full episode is live on YouTube. Press play on that and keep this window open for his stats below; let us know if Davis is on his ish!
Matth's singing “Feeling Myself” by Nicki Minaj featuring Beyoncé, from the album The Pinkprint, which was released in 2014.
I knew of the Romeo and Juliet law through Transformers: Age of Extinction (released in 2014). It’s used to explain the relationship between Jack Reynor and Nicola Peltz’s characters. VERY WEIRD thing to do in a major studio summer blockbuster.
Fam, it’s John Bradshaw Layfield. FUCK JBL.
Khal did not specify to which belt he was referring to. The discussion was about Velveteen Dream and Khal asked who has the belt, it seems he tried to imply that Dream would be next in line for the NXT championship, even though there isn’t a current champion. So Fam and Matth were right. [khal note: I was referring to Roman Reigns when I said "who has the belt", but who has the time to get the right timecode to figure out where my mind was days ago. It's all G, doe.]
Velveteen has not been on TV since TakeOver XXX, that was two weeks ago as of today (Sept. 5th, 2020).
Fam was referring to himself as Draymond Green, Khal did not understand this.
Since arriving on Raw two weeks ago, Keith Lee has two wins, two losses. One loss was by DQ, [and in] the other, he did not get pinned.
Daniel Bryan’s last match was the Finals for the Intercontinental Title, which aired on June 12th, 2020. He lost to AJ Styles. He has been working behind the scenes since then.
“Crowns for Kings” by Benny The Butcher featuring Black Thought, from the EP The Plugs I Met, which was released in 2019.
Brock Lesnar was diagnosed with diverticulitis over a decade ago, it was during his time in the UFC. It sidelined him for about a year in 2009, and came back in 2011.
Ellis Mbeh is the name of the famed shocked fan from WrestleMania 30.
This is the only TV taping of Jeff Hardy and Sabu, for Fam’s honeymoon story.
The Britt Baker-Big Swole match has been moved to the main roster, due to the outrage on social media because of how AEW is treating their women. Talks are that it will be a cinematic match.
“It’s just a sliding blockbuster not a Canadian Destroyer, not something I tried to copy from someone else, just a move I thought of bc I like doing blockbusters and wanted a different way to do it but anyway I’ll improve it.” That was Naomi’s quote on the Lacey Evans botch.
Diamante is the name of Ivelisse’s tag team partner, not Thunder Rosa.
AEW ALL OUT Predictions
Fam picked Brian Cage to win the Battle Royale Matth picked Jurassic Express to beat the Young Bucks Fam and Matth picked FTR to beat Omega and Page Fam picked Chris Jericho to beat Orange Cassidy Fam picked MJF to beat Jon Moxley
