WWE Money in the Bank preview & predictions + Cody Rhodes chooses revenge | The Still Real to Us Show | Episode #869 – 10/8/26

0:00 It's still prudent to be damaged in the... What now me? Welcome everybody! Welcome to this week's Nisvisto Robo Show. October 8, 1969, from October 8, 2026. This year WWE Money in the Bank. Preview and predictions edition of S on Team View. I am one having to show I am Jeff Peck. Joining every single week my host along with Dr. Franklin.

0:40 Dr. Tre, would you rather win Money in the Bank or punch someone in the head, my friend? Ooh, that depends on my mood swing. So I have a contract, I have a contract for a title shot whenever I want. Or I have the opportunity to kick somebody in the head whenever I want. Is that why is that where we're laying down here? I might go punch in the head. I might go that way. Just frustrations sometimes overwaid joy. So the fact that at any point I can just say, "Alright, get down. I got kick in the head. Like at any point in my life, I might go that way." Hey, I think most people probably would.

1:21 Dr. Tre, quite honestly. So that has been something that has been torn with a good friend of ours, the one and only Cody Rhodes, as of late on Smackdown as this past Friday, Dr. Tre, he chose revenge over Money in the Bank as Randy Orton caused him to miss out on his opportunity to reclaim the WWE Championship. Cody Rhodes had Kevin Owens beat in and he was second away from qualifying for Money in the Bank. Randy Orton pulled the referee out and stopped the count. Cody had a chance to get back into the match but instead he became fixated on trying to punt Orton. We've heard him last of late saying he's not going to miss this time. That distraction ultimately helped Kevin Owens qualify as Johnny Gargano took Cody Rhodes out.

2:06 Johnny Gargano gets back into the ring, gets a stunner, 1, 2, 3, Kevin Owens qualifies for Money in the Bank. The most interesting part was not simply Orton costing Cody the match. Cody chose revenge over the opportunity sitting directly in front of him. If WWE is trying to show Orton getting inside Cody's head, this is probably the clear example yet. Now with Owens entering Money in the Bank, while Cody is left with nothing except an escalating obsession with Randy Orton. Bottom line Dr. Troy Randi Orton did not just cost Cody a Money in the Bank shot. He got Cody to cost himself. So I ask you this, is Cody Rhodes becoming more interesting because Randy Orton is bringing out a darker side of him? Yeah, I mean it's anytime we see different layers in a character.

2:51 It makes it more interesting. And we've seen hints of this. You go back to when Rhodes and Owens were feuding a couple of years ago. When Owens would tell him, you can't pull the trigger. This has been kind of on that back burner of the Cody character for a couple of years now. And this rivalry with Orton, it goes back to WrestleMania, but this rivalry with Orton and Randy getting into his head is kind of pulling all that stuff out, which then makes people get excited because we are going to get the Cody heel turn or we're going to get home lander Cody or whatever people want to call it. But it does make the character a little bit more than just vanilla clean cut, guy in a nice suit, being the good guy, QB1, placating to the crowd.

3:40 It does pull those extra layers out and that's what we're always kind of here for when it comes to wrestling characters. What I really like as of late Dr. Trey is I'm enjoying the writing for a lot of the stuff WWE is doing right now and I feel like they're not getting enough credit for it because I do. There are certainly some holes in some of the major storylines right now which I will get to my thoughts on the Bloodline 946 stuff, specifically and more specifically would include Solosakowa. But stuff like this, like you're watching Smackdown and the World Championship title picture is a lot of fun to watch. This stuff with Cody Rhodes is a lot of fun to watch.

4:21 The writing has been very good lately and I don't think the general population has caught on yet maybe because there's been some trepidation of how bad WWE has been at points during this most recent stretch. I would say for like the last year it hasn't been some of their best writing when it comes from a creative standpoint. But I'm enjoying it and I like this layer of Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton that I didn't foresee coming really when we entered this past year. You know one thing that you and I have always talked about is when there's competition it kind of brings up the best in WWE and there was a lull there for a couple of years where AEW wasn't painting on all sill when there's in WWE kind of coasted for lack of a return because they didn't feel the burn they didn't feel the pressure and I really think the last year that AEW has come on strong it's made WWE step their game up and there your other is some trepidation is kind of like us.

5:20 Why do you think why are we not predicting AEW pay per view because AEW was so bad for so long it took us out of the market and just get excited about talking about it. And I think there's a lot of fans that got burnt by WWE when they crossed over and WWE got kind of lazy for lack of a better term that they really haven't caught on to the writing it's in a lot of it is like as you're getting back into WWE you're not catching the nuances of the storyline like one of my favorite things you know was that Cody interview with Michael Cole where they filmed it afterwards where Cody did the whisper into Michael Cole's ear but you know it's that Cody character where on screen you know when they lights are on he's playing you know the typical good guy but then you get those other little Easter egg layers where you're like oh this is a different version of it.

6:10 The Smackdown writing's been so good with the punk Sammy KO storyline this Randy Orton Cody Rose storyline like the stuff on Ross been really good the women's division has been pretty good like it's been so I just wish they could find like one or two guys would be like hey you get your guys's job is to write the tag team division. Don't worry about anything else just fix the tag team division. Will let everybody else handle the men's and women's division. You two guys just fix the tag team division. Yeah I mean that would be something that I would certainly get totally behind absolutely knowing how my feelings are when it comes to the tag team division but yeah I just think that there's a lot of good writing right now it's exciting to watch and Smackdown to me in general has been obviously one of the better shows maybe the better show in WWE right now though I don't think Rose too far behind I'm looking at the feud here with Cody Dr. Trey does this feud eventually need Cody to cross a line that he cannot take back for his character development.

7:07 I don't think it does I just think at some point you need to see Cody have that killer instinct like that that ability to pull the trigger and I don't think pulling the trigger necessarily means you know going above and like going too far I mean we've seen Cody cheat to win matches over this run in the last three years so it's in there. You just I think it's like it's kind of refreshing to see that this you know this clean cut you know blue eye blonde hair baby face can have an edge you know if they decide to pull the trigger and push him over that line and make him turn heal at some point you know it is what it is but they don't really need him in that role right now like you just need to see that Cody Rose can go to a dark place when he needs to win when the fire is really really hot he needs to kind of stand you know stand there and soak in the fire and come out stronger the other side.

8:02 Yeah it's exciting it's I think it's really good character development for Cody because I think he was getting stagnant he was just becoming your white meat baby face that kind of gets boring it was very much John Cena ask and now we're seeing some some different you know he's a guy that has a ton of range and I'm glad that they're not boxing him into that John Cena whole by any means switching gears over to the raw brand doctor trade you've got another great storyline that that we've been talking about for weeks is the bloodline and the nine four six and this past Monday Roman Reigns brought Solus a coa back in there so we will get a six man tag team match that I think has a a I think this is what's got a catapult survivor series war games on Monday coming out of money in the bank I think whatever we see take place whether it is solo and Jacob about to turning on the bloodline or solo turning on his brothers and joining the nine four six this is where it begins to get really interesting for what I would assume to be a strong build for survivor series war games I for see us having one more person added to the nine four six maybe it's Jacob maybe it's solo and then you've got the the four guys Royce Lucien Price Bronco Neymar along with Jada Parker teaming with the bloodline of Jimmy J I think Naomi is going to be at there's some rumbling to about her return whether solos involved into that mix or Jacob and then Roman Reigns so it's either solo or Jacob is going to be paired up here with

9:33 the nine four six in my opinion but going back to what we saw this past Monday the nine four six is war with the bloodline escalated again after Jacob about to was taken out by Jada Parker's SUV last week Roman Reigns confronted the uses about how badly the family had been losing control the situation called them the captains widened they make the call why did Jacob do it he's just a soldier which again makes me think that he's the one that's joining the nine four six and appears made the bloodline versus the nine four six official for next week Jimmy and J assume the Roma will be teaming with them but Roman revealed a returning solos echo instead it is solos first TV appearance since the nine four six abducted him back on September 21st so while all this matters you've got so many usos they spent years on opposite sides of the family story now a common enemy is forcing them back together Roman choosing solo rather than himself is interesting to as he tried to restore order without personally stepping into the fight if this alliance holds WB suddenly has to begins of a very different bloodline heading towards the fall bottom line in this all you got the nine four six they may have finally created the one thing nobody else could a reason for solos echo and the usos to fight on the same side again so dr.

10:39 try I ask you this question is this only a temperature against the nine four six or the beginning of a real bloodline reunion I don't know what to do with a full fleshy union because I still go back to like they really had something going with solo when cell was coming down to the crowd doing the pupus and all that stuff like the crowd was really into that and I think they know they have something there when they're ready to pull that trigger so I'm gonna air on the side of it's kind of a temporary thing but I'm with you I do think that somehow Jacob ends up with the nine four six and the four shadowing has been there for it to happen because as much as I like Royce keys like even in the even when they were ball on Smackdown and he was talking to Jacob backstage he was still like he always looked up to Jacob so it makes sense for Jacob to be the unhinged crazy leader of nine four six and then you know whether it's the bloodline Roman and solo against them right now or you know some kind of you know other mixed motion in sense I just don't think I think solo at some point you know like the solos the guy that took out Roman with the Simone spike not too long ago and really didn't get Roman still really hasn't got his come up and on solo for doing that so at some point that alliance is going to have to end because solo's got a challenge Roman for the top spot in the in the bloodline or in the family as well.

12:07 See and that's the part I was going to bring up because that is the problem I'm having right now is is the solos a koapart because they ran that angle several weeks ago what almost like eight weeks ago coming out of Somerslam where solo was supposed to acknowledge Roman rejoin them and then says no pairs up with with LA night and then you would figure we're off to the races and then they added the nine four six to this entire mix that to me is with all I know disrespect but it's going to come off as disrespect very a W-ish where like it's wait what how did we get here why are they doing this now wasn't it that long ago he turned his back on them and now he's he's okay they're back together like how are we doing this so that's the part where it's like I don't know not my favorite thing in regards to this so yeah I mean there's a couple of there's there's a couple of storylines going on where they've got kind of big holes in them where I'm like it's kind of like there's it's a little bit Vince in a way where it's like you know Vince always had that had the mindset that wrestling fans had short-term memory and reality wrestling fans have maybe the longest memory of any fandom out there and it's like like you said the thing was so that was like well wait you all just treat him like you know like a slave for lack of a term eight weeks ago they didn't basically made him kiss the feet of Roman Reigns in a lot of ways but then you know he turned against you and then you went back and forth to the Usos against him and LA night but now all's forgiven you know Becky Lynch was talking trash

13:43 about the audience in her few with AJ Lee goes away it comes back and then like everything's fine you got Johnny Gargato laid on boxes for almost a year and then there's no real reason he's playing either a why he was on the boxes or be just the fact that CM Punk gave a title shot and now we're back to Johnny wrestling like it's like that nine months did not excuse five minutes like there there are some kind of weird holes in some of these storylines the writing in each particular storyline has been really what well done but when we have these things this is what you and I raved about triple H back when triple H took over as he was tightening up or you know getting getting rid of the loose threads in some of the older storylines and some of the current ones and right now it's like wait that's a big hole that still needs to get filled somehow and I'm sure they will at some point because people like us complain about and then I'm sure they'll do like some throw a throw away line in their mind to address it but it's like no no no if you want us to be a storyline based wrestling show you need to make sure that your storyline has all their eyes dotted and teased crossed as we go forward otherwise you do end up in those AEW plot holes where you're like okay I thought those guys hate each other wait they're now wait they're a bad guy now when it happened like you get those kind of moments but the wrestling's fantastic so that makes up for you yes yeah no I I hear you and I agree with you completely and that's the thing where that part of the storyline I'm I'm just not the biggest fan

15:18 of and that makes me believe that there were some changes made storyline wise like that maybe they decided to go off in this direction of the 946 developing this new group having OTM come in there all three members of OTM join up with Royce Keyes make him heal because he was a baby face at summer slam teaming with LA Knight and and solos a koa against the bloodline and then now he's the bad guy and the bloodlines the good guy I mean there was a period of time coming out of summer slam that there were reports that Roman was a full-fledged heal well Roman's not a full-fledged heal if the 946 are the heals in this entire thing so and then the Jacob storylines very interesting it leads me to believe dr. Tray that maybe things got moved up or there was a direction change because that's the only thing I could think of because it was a ball of your yarn to where we got for the storyline to kick off and there's obviously still some stuff that people like you and I are hung up on but for the most part if you remove that I think everybody's like really sinking their teeth into how good of a storyline this has been yeah I mean even the storyline wise you look at go like well Jacob lost the matches to Roma which is why he had to acknowledge him as a tribal chief and join the bloodline but now he could jump back out well then why did he have to join the begin with like it was there are some things in there where you're like well why was he like is it just he was just trying to infiltrate the bloodline to get to this point but you know I just I just hope at

16:52 some point whether it's a Michael calls sit down interview or something when this stuff starts to flesh itself out more we get some we get some sand to to fill in the holes you know we get some dirt to fill in the holes to kind of makes where this all makes sense because you know for me I'm like I said I'm one of those guys I want my storyline to kind of make sense and have a good progression and if you fill it in I'm fine with it but don't leave a big gaping hole and just walk around it and have us pretend like it's not really there yeah no I agree it I would have thought that when they did the Jacob Roman storyline that this was supposed to be um happening come like WrestleMania but I think that they have bigger plans for WrestleMania and Saudi Arabia where they want to do Jacob and Roman maybe come rumble because I could see Jacob turns let's say at this Mondays Raw he returns and you know it's revealed as a leader of 946 and then I think they're going to keep Roman out of the storyline for a while because Roman needs to get ready for the crown jewel match in early November if they end up going to that show in Saudi Arabia and then you're building towards war games and then you don't have anything I don't believe there's any oh you've wrestled Paloosa in Australia so maybe they could do Jacob versus Roman there because I would imagine they'd want Roman there but that this to me just feels like a royal rumble match up between the both of them yeah but the other thing about that is you know like this would be Jacob's third shot of Roman and do you have Jacob

18:28 lose three in a row to Roman and that's that to me also is because then you're kind of well we've made you're not afraid of putting the title on people as a blade right that is true but you know I mean if you're putting the title on Jacob but you know if you do it a rumble I mean you only have at that point 60 days to get it off of them to get it back on Roman if you want to do Roman in a Hobo a WrestleMania hey what would they do with Cody had an intermania they put the title on Drew and we were all like what are the how are they going with this yes true I mean it it but I just don't see them doing a Roman Jacob rematch on raw three weeks later to put think the belt off of and but then again I saw a great interview with John Cena somebody asked John Cena about the money the bank match with LA night and Roman reigns and if he thinks they could pull the trigger and put the the belt on LA night he was like this current leadership group is more open to listening to the audience and making quick decisions and quick adjustments and it may even happen during a match at times where they'll like right and you know they'll ring into the referee and they'll say hey tell the guys we're switching that we're switching it we're going the other way just because the crowds that's how the crowd feels so you're right they could they could put the belt on Jacob at Royal Rumble and then turn around and have Roman take it away a month later heading into WrestleMania yeah no I could totally see it right now the way things are going I think you know there's a little bit of a hot potato going on smack down right now with the world title and that makes things very interesting very exciting from a fan standpoint um Dr. Tre last question here

19:58 just putting solo back besides Jimmy and Jay making more important again after months of being isolated um no I don't like that's a good question because to me I wanted to see solo on his own I wanted him to kind of do his own thing see how the crowd responded to him see if it worked and now it may be solo is back in the family but he's rebellious solo like you see it you'll see him behind the yourselves mocking them or something and then it says we like well Roman brought me back so I'm untouchable you know like that kind of attitude and that might be more fun but otherwise to me it feels like the same thing they did with Jay Jay was the top guy on raw Jay was getting all the all the love Roman comes back and now he's back in attack team with his brother and it kind of in a sense is minimized everything he's done the last two years so I just think you have to be careful putting somebody like solo back in with the bloodline and push him down to be in the fourth guy in the group because you know I mean the guy was moving merchandise with his pew-pew shirts just new a month ago so I'm just really really like cautious about this pairing because I really want to see what solo could do on his own it's interesting it is very very interesting and it's funny that they're saving it for after money the bank and not at money the bank so that kind of tells you that I think that this is going to be a major storyline when we sit down here next week to recap money the bank as well as look back at last week's edition of Monday Night Raw. Dr. Tres switching gears over

21:33 to AEW we had Will Ospreay at AW Grand Slam France he retained the AW World Championship against Kazuchko Akata Ospreay spent years chasing Akata and carrying the history of the rivalry from New Japan he survived the rainmaker and finally put Akata away with the hit and blade this matters to Will Ospreay because he beat John Moxley at all out that was very very important beating Akata may have meant even more to his story of who Ospreay has become these are two wrestlers Moxley and Akata who represented obstacles from different errors of his career and Ospreay has now beaten both as AW World Champion AW is increasingly presenting the promotion around Ospreay rather than simply featuring him as one of the several elite wrestlers the question always is where does this go Ospreay now head towards Russell Dream in the clockwork carnage World Championship match the question is no longer whether he can be AW's top star it is whether the title reign can become the defining run of his career bottom line Ospreay beating Akata feels like the final piece of AW officially making him the center piece of the company so I ask you this Dr. Tres has Will Ospreay now and questionally become AW's ace I'll say on the baby face side I still feel like he's the guy we're building around he's the direction the company wants to go I will say when you have an MJF on your roster you know at any time you can switch to MJF and go a different route you still have Mox you still have Swarve you still have Kenny you still have Joe so there's a really really good upper crust of the card to kind of

23:09 fill in if you need to but I do think the direction they're going is like hey we're building it around this handsome European guy that the crowd loves ladies love you can put them on the posters you can put them on TV like that's the kind of baby face you want to build around I do think that's kind of the direction they're headed yeah no I agree with it as well I've really really enjoyed Will Ospreay's booking since becoming AW World Champion and I think it's a blueprint to to help him make a star and I think Will Ospreay is in line right now for for maybe being the wrestler of the year in 2026's we'll be looking at that and like I don't know eight to nine weeks from now which is absurd to say so Dr. Trash you what does AW need to do next to keep this championship rain feeling this important create some doubt like I don't know if you're heading into that match with Okada like I didn't really feel like the title is in danger you know and if you're building this guy up you have to create obstacles for him to overcome that seem insurmountable at times so you know like the match with Moxley everybody got involved so at times in that match you felt like it was in doubt but you know the match with Okada and the Don Calis family doesn't really get involved and I'm like no there needs to be elements of danger to the success of this title run like you need some kind of story there it cannot always just be two great wrestlers going ahead to head sometimes you need a reason for the anyway where's your like the Cody stuff you need a reason for the baby face to change you need a

24:41 reason for the baby face to adapt and survive and move forward otherwise you end up in like super scene about an airbag is bored with it so there needs to be some risk added into this title run now this six person clockwork carnage match is that because it's always an excuse to kind of pull the title off the champ and put it on somebody else that the champ really taking the loss but when it comes to one on one stuff we need some storyline we need some deepness we need some some doubt to can he survive this upcoming match because the story is telling us it's at risk and I think that's the one thing he's lacked with baby face champions over the last four years is they don't really ever feel like they're at risk and when they lose you're like what like Joe beating Hangman page no none of us picked that one it just kind of came out of that field it's like you need some stories so that way when something like that happens it makes sense to the audience and doesn't discourage us from watching no I'm with you I think that makes a ton of sense because the last thing that you do is you if you lose the viewers trust it affects how they view what you're putting out on television each and every week so it's extremely important that you you don't lose that trust from your viewers right now and the way that they're building up will us brain and and making this important is is going to be very very important for like a better terms but I would say like what is it now almost two months in to his world championship reign I love the way that they're booking will

26:12 us probably he went from like like badass heel assassin to goofy baby face to like badass baby face and that's what they needed I love that they're like kind of leaning a little bit more into him being the ace of the company versus just another world champion so I hope this run continues and I look forward to this clockwork carnage match it's it's a little convoluted to understand but once you kind of take a good look at it's like okay this could be this could be interesting this could be interesting I'm laughing because did I was not once begging for the the scramble match to come back to Smackdown yeah then this is it basically it's elements of it's a lot of elements of the old scramble match so I'm like oh well maybe maybe WWE doesn't listen to so much but a WWE might be tight you know might be listening in every so often into our show yeah they got to be doing something that like it makes it I mean put a match up on YouTube or something so I could find out how this actually works because that's like the worst thing that could happen is like wait how am I following this so you go from clockwork carnage to money in the bank which is this Saturday from the Smoothie King Center New Orleans Louisiana doctorate we certainly know how that match goes it's a latter match with a briefcase on the top you get the briefcase you can cash in the championship at any given time throughout the year for a championship title shot on the men's and women's side even though that has been cashed in the past on the United States championship at one time which made no sense to me and all in Ethan Page's trying to do it on the inner compiled championship which with all do respect to those mid to your titles it's like I don't know if that pays as well as the world championship

27:44 but nonetheless here we go money the bank streams Saturday at six Eastern three Pacific on ESPN unlimited or you could also watch it on Disney plus like I do WWE currently has five matches and out's included in two loaded money the bank ladder matches. Raw's biggest stories all feed directly into this card you got Roman Reigns versus LA Knight Stephanie Falker taking on both live Morgan and Becky Lynch and Oba Femi finally getting Branson Reed one on one. Let's look at the the full card here Dr. Trey we've got Oba Femi versus Branson Reed why this match matters you've got Reed in the vision repeatedly targeting Oba Oba finally gets Reed one on one after weeks of attack and tax and chaos if Oba sees if WWE sees Oba as a future center priest this is exactly the kind of match he should win decisively so Dr. Trey let's start with you who do you like in this one Oba Femi or Branson Reed well I've come to learn based on the last size event when we all said that Bron breaker really needs a win and he didn't get it that I'm not Oba is my new Brock Lesnar I'm not picking against Oba again until they prove me wrong so I'm taking Oba in this one I am taking Oba Femi as well so Oba Femi defeating Branson Reigns how we see it next match you're Stephanie Valkour defending the women's world championship against Becky Lynch and live Morgan of our Coral regain the championship from Morgan and Chilli with Becky serving as special guest referee both Morgan Lynch demanded a title shot their number one contenders match broke down on raw this past money and Valkour responded by asking to face both women in a triple threat match at money

29:15 in the bank Dr. Trey I've had a tough one with this one but I feel like Liv Morgan retains the championship I think they just wanted to drop the title the Stephanie and Chilli to like basically give her that moment I don't foresee it being a long reign and I think Liv holding the championship while this feud with the two other women the baby faces and Palkour and Becky Lynch makes things more interesting so I'm going to take Liv Morgan to retain and become women's world champion again yeah I'm actually agree with you on this one I also don't know how I also know Stephanie is a hundred percent I think she might be about like 85 but the way she's dressed like when she came out like that oversized t-shirt and some like is she not does she not feel a hundred percent like that's typically not what women in WWE wear at any given time so I'm taking Liv as well I think like you said the title is just more about just where she was at the timing and everything else I think they move back to Liv as well all right so there you go both of us taking Liv Morgan let's get to the women's money the bank ladder match you've got JCJ versus Tiffany Stratton versus Lash legend Roxanne Perez Sol Rook and Lola Vice this field feels designed to create or reestablish a major player I think the establishment would be JC Lash Roxanne Sol and Lola a major player reestablishing would be Tiffany Tiffany Tiffany obviously has experience with winning money the bank can do for her Roxanne Sol Lola Lash and JC could all use the brief space as the biggest singles accomplishment of their WWE career Dr. Tray that should be a fun one who do you like in this

30:48 match yeah so in all honesty I really have not given a ton of thought these matches because I've just been so busy with everything else in my life and all these are big store lines I was like damn this is like booking for WrestleMania season almost in a way so I'm picking off what I would do as far as a writer I'm picking Roxanne because if I pick Liv to get that title back Roxanne has the IC title Roxanne holding the money in the bank briefcase creates tension with Liv and Rock Hell because apparently you can cash in on either one of them and then if the judgment day turns against Roxanne prior to WrestleMania then you you Roxanne and Liv at WrestleMania and Bank Roxanne the Super Over Babyface so I'm taking Roxanne Perez because that's how I would write it if it was up to me yeah that's really interesting I have felt like up until you gave me your response that this is this match is being set up to like make Chelsea Green Paranoid I think a lot of people would point towards like maybe Tiffany Stratton in that and I think eventually Tiffany does turn on Chelsea but I don't think it's gonna be in the way of of caching the championship in so while I like your Roxanne Perez prediction a lot I'm actually gonna go with Lash Legend I think WWE see something in her they like her as an established star and I could see Lash Legend having a big 2027 she's one of the types that maybe didn't correlate well into the NXT brand but on the main roster she has

32:20 really done a good job as someone that can be a major player and she's gotten so much better in the ring just like her fiancee Trick Williams has so I'm taking Lash Legend Dr. Trey is taking Roxanne Perez next match here is Roman Reigns defending the World Heavyweight Championship against LA Knight has spent weeks telling Roman that he could beat him without the bloodline protecting him Roman spent raw managing the family crisis with a 946 but delivery put Solosako into next week's fight instead of stepping in himself that gives WWE a believable distraction without needing to make Knight feel secondary Dr. Trey you went first in the last one to me this is Roman Reigns so I'm taking Roman Reigns to retain yeah it's it's hard because I mean I'm sure you're kind of with me there's a part of it that really wants them to pull the trigger on LA Knight just because to shake things up on raw even more like we saw them doing on Smackdown but just like I said with Oba in my Brock comparison Roman's and I think like you basically have to shock me to pick against Roman Reigns so I am taking Roman Reigns to win this thing will all come to head with Roman and Oba fight because then I'll have to pick against one of them but right now I'm just on that it doesn't make sense to pick against Roman so I'll take Roman with the win yes really both of us taking Roman Reigns to get the victory here Dr. Trey and finally the men's money in the bank ladder match you've got CM Punk versus Kevin Owens versus Trick Williams versus Penta Javon Evans, Braun Breaker and Braun Breaker

33:50 all in the men's money the bank ladder match this is the deepest match on the card Punk holding the briefcase would immediately put pressure on Sammy Zane Owens winning would keep him tied directly to the WWE Championship picture Braun Breaker winning could be the moment WWE officially launches him into the World title scene while Trick Williams Penta Javon Evans winning could instantly elevate someone into a completely different position Dr. Trey this is a this is a tough one to call so let's start with you my friend who do you like in this one I'm going with Punk just because I think it's the paranoid the Sammy paranoid about everybody out to get him is a lot more fun than maybe the Braun Breaker one to me what I think would be an obvious choice in a lot of ways but given the way the storylines are set up right now with the bloodline tied up with 946 it doesn't feel like the right time to pull the trigger on Braun Breaker and to me it came down to Punk Owens and I'm just going to take Punk because I think Punk holding the belt holds that paranoia over Sammy and then he can actually just like do the right thing and call his shot and call his match instead of trying to like the running cash in type things so I'll take Punk to win and hold mine the bank briefcase I'm going to take Kevin Owens I'm going to take Kevin Owens to win the briefcase I think him winning the championship over Sammy Zane is very plausible wouldn't be shocked if it happens sooner rather than later but I think like I feel like with the women's money the bank ladder match I think that this stays on the Smackdown side and I don't foresee them making

35:25 trick pentadjavon Evans or Braun Breaker world champion anytime soon so I feel like it's going to happen to be more of an established star in Dodge Trea went with CM Punk so I'm going to go with Kevin Owens and those are our predictions for the men's money in the bank ladder match and we will recap and review everything all on next week's edition of SRTU with that said let's get a couple plugs and sponsors are the way as we wrap up this week's edition the show you can download the show at patreon.com/srtupodcast and the store will show feed on Apple Spotify wherever you download this podcast don't forget to rate, review and subscribe you can follow us individually on extra myself at SRTU Jeff and for Dr. Ray Franklin at the Dr. Tre and of course don't forget the fall show on X at SRTU podcast with that being said what is going on in the wonderful world of Dr. Trea Franklin this week well like Jeff said you can follow me on X at the Dr. Trea you can find us or you can find me on Facebook and Instagram Dr. Trea Franklin when you're on Facebook be sure to go check out Rockets City Championship Wrestling we just had a really emotional show this past Saturday as we lost a member of our roster young man named Charlie King aka chicken finger passed away last week so we had a big memorial show for him but you know and we miss if he's a great kid just one of those guys you mean you're like this is gonna be the guy that kind of breaks out and gets out of Alabama so thoughts and prayers and love to the Rockets City roster Charlie's family and friends you can go the Rockets City YouTube page check them out you can find his t-shirts on pro wrestling t's
