(TGBH) What’s hood yall! We stay busy round these parts and we do it for all 12 of yall that keep on coming back. There appears to be a shift in programming ahead as we may see some title changes on Saturday and on Sunday. Will HHH come out and say it’s a new era? Probably. But this time he may mean it, right? Get your passports boys, we going to facken Italy. Oh, AND we have a mixer going down tomorrow to subscribe and tune in! Please! I am down to my last bag of noodles!!


(PCM)This train never stops. We are closing in on an oversaturation of PLE very soon. You thought it was bad in the 90’s when you had two a month, it is nearly weekly if not more. But we are here, regardless.


(DSS) Clash in Italy is upon us. And it’s a day later than our usual PLEs, which means I may actually get to watch it live. It’s an interesting card, and I’m not particularly excited about any one part of it despite the fact that everyone should be able to put on great matches together. Mostly. 


(IG) Waddup y’all!  Now that last weekend’s jampacked wrestling events are in the rear view, of course we have another weekend of rasslin to preview.  Let’s get into it!


PreGame w/bWo:

Clash in Italy


Women’s IC Championship

Becky Lynch(c) vs. Sol Ruca

(DSS) Becky Lynch is the greatest of all time. It’s not just her saying it. It’s not just me saying it. Everyone’s saying it. The bWo is saying it. The Main Event Wrestling Network is saying it. And she’s going to have to be the greatest to get past one of the hottest up and comers in wrestling today. Sol Ruca is primed for the spotlight, and her few weeks of botches are just her growing pains. She’s going to realize she has to really lock in to be able to walk out of Italy the new Women’s Intercontinental Champion.


Darkstar Shady’s Pick:

Sol Ruca via Pinfall


Ian G’s Pick:

Sol Ruca via Pinfall


The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:

Becky Lynch via Pinfall


PaperClip Mike’s Pick:

Becky Lynch via Pinfall


WWE Women’s Championship

Rhea Ripley(c) vs. Jade Cargill

(TGBH) This one’s an easier one to pick. Whilst I enjoy Cargill’s work, now does not seem like the right time to put the belt back on her. And though she shouldn’t be competing for anything less than the top prize, it’s ok to take the back seat from time to time. With a new stable at her tow, currently undefeated on PLE events, these women can make a good run in the tag scene while Cargill brings her star presence to ringside or commentary. You dont need to get Cargill out of the spotlight, she just needs to walk around without a championship for a little while longer.


(PCM) Can we agree that the Jade experiment is over? She was never this high on the card in AEW, so why here? Do not get me wrong, she is strong and athletic like crazy, but there has not been a match I like of hers that wasn’t because of her opponent. And that continues here. Let Rhea win and fine tune and tweak Jade.


The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:

Rhea Ripley via Pinfall


PaperClip Mike’s Pick:

Rhea Ripley via Pinfall


Darkstar Shady’s Pick:

Rhea Ripley via Pinfall


Ian G’s Pick:

Rhea Ripley via Pinfall


Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar

(PCM) Now hear me out. Oba won at WM. There is going to be a 3rd match at Summerslam. We don’t need to do 50/50 booking. But you want both behemoths to look good. Gimme a double DQ or countout, and let them tear each other apart. Then, you do the torch passing the right way at Summerslam. Last Man Standing.


The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:

Oba Femi via Pinfall


PaperClip Mike’s Pick:

Double DQ/Countout


Darkstar Shady’s Pick:

No Contest


Ian G’s Pick:

Oba Femi via DQ


WWE Undisputed Championship

Cody Rhodes(c) vs. Gunther

(TGBH) They did it. The WWE turned Cody Rhodes into the new LOL Cena Wins. Cody Rhodes doesnt need the strap, he is already face of the company material without it. Does press, promo, great with the kids, just like Cena. Copy and Paste. Except this time they need to consider the facts that people dont want Cody as their champion, at least not right now. People probably hate Gunther and that’s ok, but they hate this current Cody Rhodes character more.


(DSS) I don’t even want to talk about this match. I’m pretty sure Gunther is going to take Cody’s title and I just… I don’t want it to lead where it might lead. I don’t need a Gunther title reign just because they didn’t plan out his retirement gimmick well enough and they ran out of people willing to be retired by him after two. I don’t need him to become champion with bitch ass Sami Zayn sniffing around the title picture so that Sami can dethrone another Gunther title reign and become a world champion for the first time. I just don’t want to talk about it.


Darkstar Shady’s Pick:

Gunther via TKO


Ian G’s Pick:

Cody via Pinfall


The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:

Gunther via Knockout


PaperClip Mike’s Pick:

Gunther via Submission


Tribal Combat

WWE World Heavyweight Championship

Roman Reigns(c) vs. Jacob Fatu

(PCM) I am torn. Jacob is a future world champion, but does Roman lose it at a B-show PLE? And if Cody is losing, do you switch both titles? Also, if Roman is losing, does Cody lose too? There is a lot more here than usual. So honestly, I don’t know. Let Roman carry it until Summerslam and give it to Fatu there


(DSS) It’s two nights before the match and we aren’t even 100% sure we’re getting a match. And even if he’s cleared, we don’t need a partially injured World Heavyweight Champion. I want Jacob Fatu to hold a world championship, but I think an untimely injury may delay his reign just a little longer. You win this time, Roman Reigns. 


The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:

Jacob Fatu via Knockout, Our Tribal Chief takes time off


PaperClip Mike’s Pick:

Roman Reigns via Pinfall


Darkstar Shady’s Pick:

Roman Reigns via Pinfall


Ian G’s Pick:

Roman Reigns via Pinfall
