  1. Twin magic is a time-honored tradition in WWE, utilized by many of the greats, such as the Killer Bees, Demolition, the Beverly Brothers, and even Doink the Clown!

    But yes, you guys are right. The only way it works is if the two people actually look and dress the same way.

    I think the Usos should use twin magic. I can’t tell those two apart.

      1. That’s highly debatable.

        You know, when you guys were talking about making a 90s version of Bray Wyatt, I wasn’t thinking of an American Badass. I was thinking he could be like Kevin Sullivan, who literally called his faction “The Faces of Fear”.

    “Is Roman Reigns this era’s Batista?”

    YES! Yes he is, because Batista also had no personality and was a terrible wrestler.

  3. Regarding Dodd’s comment about Extreme Rules and Payback being the skippable pay per views: These were really good last year with the matches of the Shield vs Evolution stealing the show both times, a rare occurence of lightning striking twice. And this year’s Payback was actually pretty good with the Fatal 4-Way main event being amazing. It really just depends on the booking and this year, not very good booking.

    Regarding the Tag Team division: The tag team division is actually really good right now, just some of them sadly have nothing to do. Like Los Matadores. They come out when they need a team to fill out some slots. Lucha Dragons were great down at NXT and thankfully, they have yet to be ruined. The Ascension on the other hand, they were also great in NXT, but when they got moved to the main roster, they changed their gimmick to what it is and it destroyed them unfortunately. I do agree however on Cesaro and Kidd, they need to give them a proper team theme and team name. They are a great team otherwise.

    Regarding the Divas: Having Nikki hold the belt to try and break AJ’s record isn’t what is going to break the division, the division is broken already. Like Dodd said, there’s a lot of talent in these ladies, but the team at WWE Creative and Vince Mcmahon, gives them jackshit to work with. Unlike NXT which is run by Triple H and his own team, so they give the female division more to work with. Hell, at the most recent NXT Takeover special, two of the female wrestlers on NXT were the main event and it was an incredible match. Also, they actually have the decency and respect down at NXT to not use the Term Diva for them, but instead calling them Women wrestlers and even their belt is the Women’s championship and its not a fucking stupid butterfly design.

    Bo Dallas is unfortunately another person who was brought out of NXT and he suffered cuz of it, being stuck with this dumb gimmick of his. He had the wrestling talent, he’s just given jackshit to work with.

    The IC Title match in the Chamber was kind of a giant mess of a match. It had no storyline to it, it was just a “shit happens” match since the only storyline they could have had going into it was Ziggler and Rusev but then Rusev fucked up his foot so that was lost.

    Regarding Finn Balor as like Wyatt’s enforcer/attack dog. I think that could be cool but at the same time, I think it would also be cool for them to actually fight each other whenever Balor gets moved up to the main roster. He could embody the demon persona he uses for specials and then be Kane’s retirement match, become the new Demon of WWE and have some good back and forth with Wyatt.

    And yes, I agree with Dodd, if you aren’t watching NXT, DO IT!

    (Sorry for how long this comment is)

      1. I’m not really sure; I don’t really watch them. I was just listening to that sample clip you used in your podcast and I recognized the voice. “Oh, yeah! It’s that guy from the Toonami promos!”
