00:00 Hello I'm Adam Hailing from PartsFunknown and welcome to Fantasy Booking Warfare!
00:07 It's time for another first round match. Last week we saw Luke Owen take out his best friend
00:16 Denise Salcedo, beating her with his "Finally Roman Reigns getting a win over Brock Lesnar"
00:23 booking. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. This week it's Sullivan Bo Brown, hot dog,
00:29 versus El Fakidor Laurie Blake. And they're booking John Cena's heel turn.
00:39 I am joined by our two competitors. I'm joined by Sully. Hello. I'm joined by Laurie. How do
00:57 you do? How do you do? How do you do? Now the question on everyone's mind, Laurie, obviously
01:03 we're aware of your QuizzleMania history. Did you take this seriously? I took it too seriously,
01:08 if anything. I spent far too much time on the first thing that happened and then ran out of
01:12 time for the ending. It hop skips and gets to the end and you'll see that as it happens. Sully,
01:19 your first take that you sent to us was 46 minutes long. Have you managed to cut it down a bit? I have
01:26 successfully managed to do that and cut out a lot of long rambling rants about things that irritate
01:32 me in wrestling. Sullivan, call it in the air. Okay. Heads? It's heads. Huzzah. Would you like
01:43 to go first or second, Sullivan? First, please. Like a penalty shootout. Always good to go first.
01:49 Let's see how Sullivan Bo Brown would book John Cena's heel turn. You can't see me. My time is now.
02:06 You can't see me. My time is now. Such fun words from John Cena there. Now, what about his heel
02:13 turn? Well, I think it should start in 2013, I think. WrestleMania 29, him versus The Rock,
02:20 number two, this one. It's the main event and it's going to be going pretty much how it did on the
02:27 night with one key difference. That's going to be a ref bump that takes the ref out. It's an
02:33 accidental one. It's not somebody just whacking someone over the head. He falls over and maybe
02:38 slips on something. I don't know. John Cena goes to kick The Rock in the stomach while he's in
02:44 motion. And instead, he accidentally kicks him straight in the gonads. And it's a low blow and
02:51 John is confused and The Rock is confused and the fans are confused. They don't really know whether
02:56 this was deliberate or not. And he's like, no, no, no, this is an accident. The Rock is like a
03:00 little bit playing possum. He's in pain, but he's also preparing to attack him and he goes for him.
03:06 But in doing so, John is able to counter it, puts him up for an AA. One, two, three. He has won the
03:13 title in such a weird circumstance that he kind of has to explain himself. He's like, listen,
03:16 it was just an accident. I'm a good guy. I care about you, the fans. That's all I care about. And
03:21 I wouldn't be a bad guy because I care about you so much. He goes through the next few matches in
03:26 a few months. Absolutely fine. He defeats Ryback twice and Mark Henry. And that's absolutely fine.
03:30 It gets to SummerSlam and he's fighting against Daniel Bryan. And you've got Triple H as the
03:36 special guest referee. And it's all going to be, you know, is he going to call it down the middle?
03:40 Well, of course he isn't. And in this case, he actually looks like he's going to attack John,
03:46 but he goes for Daniel Bryan and he kicks him in the stomach, pedigree. And he drags John over.
03:53 John is conscious and able to stop the count if he wants to, but he doesn't. And he goes one,
03:58 two, three. Boom. He's won. The booing would be insane. It would be crazy. But John has just won
04:08 the title. And you know, the next night on Raw, he comes out and he's talking to the fans and
04:13 he's like, listen, hey, I didn't want to say this, but I found out I need to do a tricep surgery for
04:20 four months, but don't worry, everyone. I'm keeping your title safe. I'm making sure it
04:24 doesn't get into bad hands. I'm going to keep it while I'm injured. And the fans are going mental
04:29 at this point, presumably hating on him. And you keep him off telly for a few months and then he's
04:34 going to come back against Del Rio and Sandow. And these matches are going to go fairly,
04:37 very similarly. But the only difference is that after the matches is that he is going to beat
04:43 those people to a pulp with chairs and weapons and put them through tables and really, really
04:48 take them too far in terms of the beating that he just thinks that they deserve because they
04:53 are dastardly heels in his mind. And it all builds up to this match with Randy Orton. Now,
05:00 he's saying that now at this point, hey, listen, listen, I need to stop these heels from having
05:05 any championships. I need to unify the world championships. So I'm going to fight Randy Orton.
05:12 And I'm the only one who can do it because I'm big match John, a big match. John, I got my five
05:17 moves to do because that's all I need to destroy these dastardly heels. And it comes to the match
05:22 against Randy at TLC and they're fighting each other in the main event. And then it goes,
05:27 bong, lights out midway through this fight. John's been on top the whole fight, but now
05:34 the lights are out. What's going on? BONG! Whatever that quiet does. And then BONG! BONG!
05:42 BOM! BADUM! BOM! BADUM! BADUM! BADUM! Oi! It's the Undertaker. He comes out and he just points
05:49 at John and he points the WrestleMania sign and he's like, oh no. And he turns around and Randy
05:58 Orton RKO's him like through a f***ing table, whatever it is. And one, two, three, Randy's
06:04 got the title. You can do the Daniel Bryan story now and it's just the same. Then we cut to the
06:08 Royal Rumble and John is not going to have his rematch with Randy Orton at Royal Rumble. In
06:14 this case, he's going to be entering the Royal Rumble and he's going to be entering at number
06:17 30. Batista has already entered, by the way. Number 30, they're all waiting for Daniel Bryan.
06:22 Daniel Bryan doesn't come out just like he did in the last time because in this world,
06:25 they've planned it as well. They've really planned that. That's genuinely true in this world. Not in
06:30 the real world, but in this world. And John Cena comes out with his hustle, loyalty and respect
06:35 thing going, yes, yes, yes to Daniel Bryan's music. And the fans are going absolutely crazy.
06:41 And he's going, yes, yes, it's me. It's me. And he's sort of aware that the fans hate him,
06:46 but he's going like, you don't understand. I am fighting for you. And he's going for it and he's
06:50 knocking everyone out. And it's him and Batista in the final two and everyone's booing because
06:54 nobody wants this. Nobody wants Batista and John Cena to be in the main event of WrestleMania at
06:59 this point. They're bored. And so they are booing and booing and booing. And then once again,
07:05 lights out. Boom. Boom. Undertaker in the ring, hand already around the neck of John Cena. He
07:14 chokeslams him out of the ring. Batista, well done. You go into the main event of WrestleMania.
07:18 You're going to have that whole Daniel Bryan thing ace. And now you've got Undertaker versus
07:23 Cena and Cena's fuming on the next day of Raw. He is fuming. He comes out and he talking to the
07:30 Undertaker. He's saying, listen, Undertaker. OK, fine. I accept your challenge. I will go for you.
07:36 But only if you put your career on the line. I don't care. I just want to destroy you and end
07:43 you and never have to see you ever again. I hate you Undertaker. And so we have the WrestleMania
07:49 main event. Here it is. It's all set up. They are fighting like they did in the Ruthless Aggression
07:54 Era. It is a classic. Hopefully, hopefully nobody gets concussed. Oh, God, please, God,
08:00 let's hope that nobody gets concussed. And, you know, they're hitting all of their finishes.
08:05 There's no weapons or anything like that. It's not a no disqualification match. It doesn't need any
08:09 stipulation. It's already one of the biggest matches, you know, ever. And and John Cena was
08:17 thrown out of the ring and he doesn't really know what to do at this point. He's been beaten down.
08:21 He's tried everything against the Undertaker and he just cannot win. And he picks up a sledgehammer.
08:26 He goes back into the ring with it and the referee's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, stop.
08:29 You're not allowed sledgehammers in here. A strict no sledgehammer rule. While this is all
08:35 being explained to John, Triple H runs down and Triple H pedigrees the Undertaker behind the
08:42 referee's back. John sees this, throws the sledgehammer out of the ring. He goes over to cover
08:48 him. One, two, shoulder up. OK, fine. He picks him up. He gets him into an AA. One, two, shoulder up.
08:57 And then another AA. One, two, shoulder up. And then he gets him up for another AA, up onto the
09:04 top rope. A super AA. One, two, three. Finally, after everything, the Undertaker has been finally
09:11 put down and his career is over. The streak is over. There is nothing left of the Undertaker.
09:18 We don't ever have to see him wrestle in like Saudi Arabia against Goldberg. And he can just
09:24 retire in dignity at his peak. And John leaves the ring and Triple H is there and he goes to shake
09:36 his hand and John accepts the handshake. Now John is going to be part of the authority. He's going
09:43 to be a company man, a part of the authority for the rest of it. Yeah. And then you have that whole
09:49 authority thing, but with John Cena in there as well, instead of like Randy Orton, which is not
09:54 as fun or interesting. First of all, kudos on the brass neck of you, Sullivan, for ending the main
10:03 event of WrestleMania on a confusing, accidental nutshot. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Whoops. Did I kick you
10:13 in the dick? Oh, well. What's a dick? Is this a heel turn? We'll long this off for a full year
10:23 and we'll see whether it is. And it is. Cena beats the streak and retires the Undertaker all in the
10:30 same match with Triple H running down to get involved as well. Hundo P. It's a lot. It's a
10:36 lot, Sully. It is a lot. It's a lot. But I'll tell you why. Because ultimately, I don't think,
10:42 I think when the Undertaker lost the streak, he should have retired. I can't think of a match
10:46 after that that I'm like, oh, no, we're going to miss out on Undertaker versus Bray Wyatt at
10:52 WrestleMania. There's no good WrestleMania matches for the Undertaker after that. John Cena is a,
10:56 kicks Rock in the dick. Whoops. He kicks him in the dick. Accidentally kicks him in the dick.
11:02 But while I'm here, I guess I'll turn evil. So he, he's fine up until SummerSlam wins the match,
11:16 which, you know, not the way he would have wanted. Goes away to have tricep surgery. At some point
11:21 during tricep surgery, they accidentally remove his sole because as soon as he comes back, he is
11:26 crippling heels. Well, the thing is, right, is that he's kind of already fully turned before
11:32 he goes into tricep surgery because he decides to keep the title with him. And he makes it quite
11:36 clear that he thinks he's he's the only one who deserves the title. So he's already kind of lost
11:41 his soul already. But the first you've got to ease him in because he's, you know, he's always he's
11:46 kind of got a weirdly almost heelish persona anyway, in his sort of, like, doesn't don't
11:51 really care when he loses kind of thing. And that kind of sort of he's got an arrogance to him,
11:56 John Cena. So you've got to ease him in with a few accidents. Is it a heel turn? And then
12:01 a couple of people's, you know, you could have the rock snippet on a banana. You could have been on
12:09 any of these things. Brock Lesnar accidentally shits himself. He's really embarrassed. John Cena
12:13 kind of like, rolls him up. What's happening? Whoopsie. I like the subtlety of it. I do like
12:20 that. I like the idea that you're not he's not suddenly twirling his moustache. It's the idea
12:24 that he's always just like he's always a bit like he's a robot man who doesn't really care about
12:29 people's feelings and is incredibly aloof to the entire roster. And you're just sort of leaning
12:33 into that and trying to play the crowd game. Laurie, what did you think of Sonny's book?
12:38 I enjoyed it. A lot of history. A lot of history has been changed. A lot of accidental dick kicking,
12:44 which I don't know how that would go down at a WrestleMania.
12:50 It really was like nobody knew what a dick was.
12:57 So they're both looking at like he just kicks rock in the dick and rocks like
12:59 and Cena's like. Did I do that? They're both just really confused. As rock slowly falls down.
13:10 Why did you do this? I didn't mean to do it. I think.
13:22 They lift you up now. I guess I win.
13:25 All right. Yeah, that's that. We will get back to comparing both of them at the end. But we do have
13:33 one more booking to watch. We've got Laurie's booking. Let's see how Laurie El Fakidor Blake
13:39 would book John Cena's heel turn. So our story begins at SummerSlam 2021 and Big E cashed in
13:47 his Money in the Bank contract to open the show, winning a triple threat against Bobby Lashley and
13:51 Goldberg and walking away as the WWE Champion. Closing us out is John Cena and Roman Reigns
13:57 going toe to Joe in the main event. And just like Cena made clear on Smackdown, he's going to get
14:03 smashed by Reigns, but he's just going to hang in there and hang on looking for that one, two,
14:08 three. And after taking a pummeling that's left him busted open, but never kept him down,
14:13 fending off the inevitable Uso run in, it looks like he's about to do it as he ducks a Superman
14:19 punch from a frustrated Roman. He sweeps Reigns up onto his shoulders for an AA, but as he tips
14:24 Roman over the head of the table, lands on his feet, hits the ropes and rebounds with a huge
14:31 spear. One, two, Cena's arm shoots into the air. Roman looks shocked, but that shock turns to a
14:40 smile as he nods and says, that's right. You never give up. Do you, John? Now Roman's standing over
14:48 him. One limp hand of Cena reaching out and just sort of touching the edge of Roman's boot, blood
14:55 all clotted up in the never give up sweat band. Reigns reaches down, grabs the wrist, rips the
15:01 band off and drops it to the canvas. Maintaining wrist control, he then pulls John up to his knees
15:07 right into a guillotine choke hold. Cena struggles. He fights and fights. Roman's telling him to tap,
15:14 but Cena won't give up. The ref rushes over to check as Cena seemingly goes limp, but Roman
15:20 lets go. Cena slumps to the floor gasping for air and Roman backs down the official saying this will
15:26 only be over when he gives up. Now Cena's face down on the canvas, his breath rasping, Reigns
15:33 lifts him up into the guillotine once more and this time as he squeezes Cena weakly taps out.
15:41 Roman walks out with the Universal title slung over his shoulder, Cena is still crumpled in the
15:46 ring. The closing image of the show as the copyright logo comes up is him reaching out with
15:51 one finger for the bloodied up sweatband as the medical team swarm around him.
15:56 The next day on Raw it's revealed that John Cena had to be rushed to a local medical facility
16:00 after SummerSlam and was put on oxygen and they're not sure when or if he'll be cleared to wrestle
16:06 again. Cena goes old school and isn't seen in public for quite a while, which apparently costs
16:10 movie studios millions of dollars in the process. Again, this is a fantasy, money is no object.
16:16 Flash forward to the Royal Rumble 2022 and in the build up Finn Balor has been getting reheated
16:23 after his push stalled. Things are different this time because Roman isn't backing Balor for a shot
16:28 saying he couldn't even get through the contract signing without getting beat up,
16:32 how in the hell is he worthy to take on the Chief. Balor says fine, I'm going to win the Royal Rumble
16:38 and take that Universal title off you at WrestleMania and I'm going to do it from
16:44 the number one spot. If Vince won't give me the big push, I'll do it myself.
16:50 And Balor really looks like he's getting the big push too during the Royal Rumble match as he makes
16:54 it all the way through. And as we approach the number 30 entrant, Balor is the lone babyface
16:59 fending off Jey and Jimmy Uso, who Roman bullied Adam Pearce into entering at 28 and 29. Seth
17:05 Rollins is in there and so is Sami Zayn because I think they'd be good. The beatdown is on as the
17:10 heels team up to kick Finn while he's down as the timer ticks down. 3, 2, 1, WABADOO!
17:17 There's John Cena standing on the ramp with his little arms crossed and his head down,
17:21 he does that weird smug look up like he did at Rumble 2008. This is unbelievable,
17:26 you've got to be kidding me, oh my god, scream the commentators, the crowd pop. But Cena sucks,
17:32 he's still mixed in there somewhere. All the heels do their best Triple H shocked face as John
17:37 rushes the ring. Out goes Rollins, out goes Zayn, Finn rallies and they both eliminate Jimmy and
17:43 Jey at the same time. John lobs Jimmy onto the pile of people outside and Balor shotgun dropkicks
17:49 Jey over the top rope. Does that make sense in physics terms? I don't know, Balor stays on his
17:54 back after the move though, clearly running on empty. Cena goes over, he stands over Finn for
18:01 a moment and reaches out a hand, pulling Finn up to his feet by his wrist. There's a second too
18:07 long where Cena keeps hold before shaking Finn's hand and backing off. The pair then have a really
18:13 good last few minute stretch of the Rumble that ends as Balor hits a sling blade, turns and
18:18 shotgun dropkicks Cena over the top rope out onto the apron. As Balor rushes in to knock him down,
18:23 Cena drags him over the rope so both men are now on the apron. They begin to brawl,
18:27 the crowd getting more and more behind Balor as things go on. Huge Jey
18:31 punches a big old round of let's go Balor. Cena sucks, Balor gets the upper hand for a second
18:38 as Cena drops to a knee. Balor winds up for his big apron punt kick, but as he rushes in Cena pops
18:45 him up first into a powerbomb pose and then powering him out again into the fireman's carry,
18:50 slamming Balor onto the apron with an AA who falls out onto the floor. The crowd erupts,
18:57 the kiddly winks are happy that Cena picked up the win, but there is a lot of hate from the
19:03 smart marks. Cena celebrates on the turnbuckle with his gang signs out, pointing to the Wrestlemania
19:09 sign, he even points to Finn Balor offering the sportsmanly round of applause, but it does not go
19:14 down well. People are pissed that Finn was robbed right at the last by Cena yet again.
19:21 It's then advertised that Cena is going to appear on Smackdown to make his choice of opponent for
19:25 Mania. Big E as WWE Champion has been invited along to hear John out, and Roman comes out flanked by
19:31 both Usos and Heyman holding up the Universal title. A WABADOO! People boo! They wanted Balor
19:38 to win, Cena walks out and he doesn't play up to the crowd like usual, he doesn't talk to the
19:43 cameraman or rush the ring either. He just walks down, grabs a mic, standing between E and Roman
19:51 and saying "I wanted to apologize to anyone I might have let down recently. This is kind of hard
19:58 to understand. Sometimes you can try so hard at something. Sometimes you can be so, so prepared
20:05 and still fail." That's the beginning of his never give up speech. He says "it's something
20:11 Finn Balor understands." And then turning to Roman Reigns he says "it's something I understand.
20:16 You made me tap out. I've often said a man's character is not judged after he celebrates a
20:22 victory, but by what he does when his back is against the wall. My back wasn't just against
20:28 the wall when I faced you Roman. You put me right through it. I missed months of work and part of me
20:34 thought that might be it. I thought I might never win another championship. I thought I might never
20:40 wrestle again. But now I get a choice. Another round with you or with you, Big E." He turns
20:47 around to face Big E and says "I respect you. You hustled for that WWE championship. You fought hard
20:54 for years and you remained loyal to your friends. You earned this." Pointing to the title.
21:00 That's inspiring to me. Roman has stepped right up behind him as all this is happening and he
21:04 wheels around looking Roman right in the face and says "I believe no matter how great the setback,
21:09 how severe the failure, you pick yourself up, you brush yourself off, you push forward,
21:14 you move on, you adapt, you find a different path." As he turns around and looks at Big E and says
21:21 "I will see you at WrestleMania." The fans erupt into a chorus of boos as Cena's pointing to the
21:27 title, he points to the WrestleMania sign all the while staring down Big E.
21:31 On the road to WrestleMania John Cena is mostly absent, using the old movie excuse,
21:37 because that is going to piss a lot of people off. But when on Raw leading up to Mania he
21:42 does claim that WWE set him up to fail every time they've asked him to come back. Every time he
21:47 comes back it's to face an Undertaker, or a Bray Wyatt or a Roman Reigns. Every time he ends up in
21:53 a medical facility or lost in the Firefly Funhouse for months. But not this time. This time he has
22:00 to be ruthless in going after what he wants. Big E gets a great little run from the Royal
22:05 Rumble to Mania, toppling all comers at every pay-per-view, the likes of AJ Styles, Karrion
22:09 Kross, Lashley again, all folks with big old submissions in their arsenal. So every match
22:13 we get to see Big E refusing to tap out, refusing to give up. Also Finn Balor wins the Elimination
22:20 Chamber to decide the number one contender for the Universal title, so don't be mad about him
22:24 going out on the Rumble. And if you are mad, @OliDavis is my Twitter handle. At WrestleMania
22:30 Cena and Big E are closing out night one and having a great match as they trade ridiculous
22:36 feats of strength all around the ring. In the closing stretch Cena gets the upper hand,
22:41 nailing E with move after move, locking in the STF, but E won't stay down. He won't quit.
22:49 Big E gets this last ditch rally, an overhead belly to belly, he hoists John up into the big
22:55 ending, but Cena drops over the back, picking E up backwards and then powering him into a fireman's
23:01 carry. The AA follows. One, two, Big E's arm shoots into the air. Cena looks shocked, and
23:11 then there's this moment of realisation. E isn't going to give up. And as a man who recently gave
23:18 up, this makes John mad. He stands, Big E is barely moving now, the referee comes in really
23:25 close to check on him as Cena reaches into a pocket before popping off the rope. Bouncing
23:30 back he does a little shuffle, brushes a little dirt off. Is that a glint of brass? The ref hasn't
23:36 seen. He nails Big E in the face with a brass knuckle shuffle. Cena drops into the cover. One,
23:43 two, three. John Cena is a 17-time champion. He pockets the nooks as he stands up to collect
23:51 the belt. Big E is laying in the ring, unmoving. That is my booking. I hope you hate John Cena now,
23:57 and not me. If you don't like the booking, tell John Cena you don't like the booking, don't tell
24:03 me. Interesting how there's always a similarity between the bookings, John Cena entering number
24:08 30 in the Royal Rumble. There's an entitlement to John Cena, which you both kind of played with,
24:12 and you're both playing crowd games. My question to you though, Laurie, is 2022 heel John Cena.
24:20 Like, what does he do? What does he do? Because you did the long road up to the heel turn,
24:26 which is fair because you kind of, you know, unpicked. So like Laurie kind of,
24:30 Sully did like the slow change, and you did the sort of psychological build up to the action
24:35 itself. But I am very curious as to kind of where it goes from here, because he is now going to be
24:39 your part-time champion, which will play into the heel turn, but does it diminish its effect by
24:45 happening in 2022, rather than a full-time roster like Sully did? Yeah, I think that's what you'd
24:52 want to do with his character, is have that be, have the whole part-time thing be part of it.
24:56 The whole point, I think, what I was trying to do with my booking was play off how the fans already
25:01 react to him. It's always mixed, and he's never really played into that as part of his psyche
25:07 in kind of his wrestling. So like, it would be interesting to see him be like, "Oh, well,
25:10 they don't like me. So, you know, if I'm off doing a movie, you don't have a champion."
25:14 And I would say like, then you could do, you've got Big E to warm up again and go against John
25:20 Cena again for that sort of thing. Or you could do Finn, I originally had Finn Balor wins the
25:24 Universal title at WrestleMania. So that would be like a night two thing, and you'd close the
25:28 show with a nice thing, rather than having night one end on a down thing where John Cena turns heel.
25:33 And then you'd have Roman Reigns freed up to do a twice in a lifetime style thing.
25:37 I'm still formulating thoughts, but I am interested, Sully, in your immediate reaction.
25:41 I really liked it. I really liked how slow the build was. And then that thing that happened a
25:48 year ago just triggers that thing of like, "Oh, f***, no, I gave up last year, and you're just
25:55 not giving up." I really liked that. I really liked it a lot.
25:58 I mean, you are competing against Laurie. So I was hoping for a little bit of trash talk there,
26:02 Sully, or something. Oh, it was really bad how you thought about it loads,
26:05 and it clearly put a lot of effort into it. Bloody idiot.
26:08 Yeah. I mean, Laurie did it.
26:11 Really enjoyed it. Laurie did manage to cut a few extra promos
26:14 in that two minutes over the time limit that he went.
26:17 Yeah, I know. You went exactly eight minutes, Sullivan,
26:20 like a good little boy. Whereas Laurie Blake over here got to take his time by flouting the rules of
26:26 his own format, because he is running, he is the showrunner for this series.
26:31 I did not have, unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to edit two more minutes out of it.
26:35 When I was editing it, I was like, "Oh, God, we got to do predictions now. Bye."
26:38 So yeah.
26:40 I'm not going to lie, Laurie, there was a lot of quality to the promos. There was a lot of
26:45 richness to the character stuff. Yeah, my only issues are, obviously, there's stuff you can make
26:52 fun of with Sully, like the accidental dick shot. But I feel like industry-wise, there's possibly
26:59 more to do with a full-time heel John Cena. Yeah, I'm really torn, guys. I think I'm leaning one
27:06 way, but how I'm leaning doesn't matter, because you're the authority here. You, the PFK universe.
27:15 Whose booking did you prefer? Did you prefer "But My Penis" by Sullivan Bo Brown, or did you
27:25 prefer "Laurie Blake"? Sorry, I just want that to be my autobiography title.
27:33 Sorry, carry on, carry on. Or did you prefer "Sometimes Give Up" by Laurie Blake Odyssey?
27:44 You can vote. Head on over to the community tab on the PFK YouTube channel. There you will see
27:53 a vote, a poll. Laurie Blake versus Sullivan Bo Brown. Who do you want to see advance to the
27:59 quarterfinal to face the winner of next week's fantasy booking warfare, which pits Los Intangibles
28:07 de WrestleTalk versus Steve and Larson, who are going to be booking the New Day triple threat.
28:17 Join us next week as we go over who won this episode, and we'll see that booking jam.
28:25 That jam, everybody.
