Episode 82 - Super Show Me the Same Old Same Old - a podcast by Brothers of Discussion - A Wre

Get ready for a nursery rhyme reading, Saudi Arabian, Wyatt gym flexin episode of the Brothers of Discussion!

We’re going to cover everything from the frill filled house show that is Super Showdown, to the breath of fresh summer air that is NXTTakeover (and NXT UK), and finally, another round of “Two Rumors and a Lie”, where I have to figure out which of these absurd wrestling rumors is quote unquote “real”, and which one Matt created while taking a dump.


That and so much more is ready to be dissected by the Brothers of Discussion.
Tidbits
NXT UK show schedule on the scheduled as ALL OUT
Triple H: “I will just say this to everybody in here, contrary to I’m sure some of the buzz, the date of August 31 is a date we’ve had for a long time. That building has been booked with us in Cardiff, geez, long before WrestleMania 35, I think. We just hadn’t announced because it wasn’t the right time, and you don’t want to announce something for a brand six months out or whatever. At least I don’t, the way I see it. Tonight was the right night to do it. It had nothing to do with anybody else, to be honest. We will take place live in primetime in the UK and be on in the afternoon here in the US, so it is what it is.”
Brock promises to cash-in on Friday

Io Shirai v Shayna Baszler ©
Really strong match, move for move Io could hold the throne, but the promos and selling of storylines might be tough.
Is this because we haven’t really built up a legitimate heel on the roster? After Shayna? They’re ripe with faces (Io, Candace, Mia Jim, Dakota Kai, Xia Li, Catanzaro…)
