00:00Is a Netflix WWE Draft coming?

00:05More issues with The Rock and WWE, backstage heat with Goldberg, and more.

00:12I'm Oli Davis, with a moustache, and this is the WrestleTalk News.

00:25Monday Night Raw is set to debut on Netflix on the 6th January.

00:29A huge move not just for WWE, but for the entire way you consume media.

00:35For the first time in Netflix's history, it'll have a live major broadcast that's

00:39A, weekly, and 2, not dependent on Mike Tyson wanting to fight.

00:44Both WWE and Netflix will want the best possible show to hook the platform's potentially

00:49millions of new fans in.

00:52Which means you should have your biggest stars.

00:54And currently, both of WWE's top draws, Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns, are on SmackDown.

01:01WWE have recently begun filming promotional material for the move, and Fightful Select

01:05have revealed which stars Netflix want on Raw.

01:09Unsurprisingly, the names are Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns and CM Punk.

01:13Two of whom are currently on Fridays, and the other one out with a bad case of the not

01:17wanting to work Saudi Arabian PLEs.

01:20Apparently Cody was in talks with Netflix over a potential movie role too, but that

01:24didn't end up happening.

01:26The talent Fightful spoke to claim they don't yet know which brand they will be on starting

01:30next year.

01:31But a number of stars from both Raw and SmackDown were at the Netflix commercial shoot on the

01:3527th October, including Raw stars Io Sky, Kairi Sane and members of the LWO, along with

01:42SmackDown wrestlers Elektra Lopez and the Motor City Machine Guns.

01:46Also there, rather awkwardly, was Baron Corbin, who departed the company late last week.

01:51With such a collection of Raw and SmackDown wrestlers shooting commercials for Raw's

01:55move to Netflix, it implies a draft may be taking place to freshen up the roster for

02:012025.

02:02For the last two years, the draft has taken place following WrestleMania.

02:06Which makes sense, as it lets that season's feuds culminate, and then everyone gets moved

02:10around for the new school year.

02:11We'll have to see if Leveque brings it back closer to the October drafts from 2019-2021

02:17to satisfy the Netflix requests.

02:19Or, what I think will happen, the brand split will become very soft from January to April.

02:25Just like it did on this year's Road to WrestleMania, where everyone's hands are

02:28on deck to build the company's biggest show.

02:30Or not, if you're The Rock.

02:33Several weeks ago, the Wrestling Observer reported that The Rock wasn't then scheduled

02:37to appear at WrestleMania 41.

02:40Which was quite surprising, considering he'd just turned up at the end of Bad Blood seemingly

02:43setting up a three-way match between him, Roman and Cody.

02:46Rock The Dwayne Johnson himself called the report bulls***, and Fightful Select wrote

02:50he is a priority in the company, but never actually confirmed him for a WrestleMania

02:55match.

02:56The Wrestling Observer has now reiterated that Rocky has not committed to wrestle at

03:00the show yet, with one source saying there is nothing set, and the other said Johnson

03:04is not scheduled.

03:05It can often be difficult to figure out what's actually going on in wrestling.

03:09Do you believe The Wrestler, whose whole job it is to trick you?

03:13Or do you believe The Dirt Sheet, who can get things wrong?

03:16In this case, maybe just look at WWE.

03:19The Wrestling Observer has pointed out that the official WrestleMania 41 poster, which

03:23was released this week, has Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, John Cena, CM Punk, Logan Paul and

03:28more on there.

03:29But there is no Rock.

03:32And if The Rock really was confirmed for the show, that poster would almost definitely

03:36be just The Rock's giant head.

03:38Sorry again, CM Punk.

03:40Now here's a message from this video's sponsor.

03:45Another email sent.

03:47Time for a break.

03:51Is this you?

03:52Have you had an accident recently after sending an email that wasn't your fault?

03:56The accident that is, not the email.

03:58Has your accident affected you personally?

04:00Has some uneven floorboards made you trip and feel you deserve some compensation?

04:05Well maybe it's time you get yourself some personal injury legal advice from injury lawyers

04:10Morgan & Morgan.

04:11You see, Morgan & Morgan is America's largest injury law firm, with over 1,000 attorneys

04:16operating in all 50 states.

04:18They're more than just a traditional law firm, they're a national consumer-facing

04:22brand with a promise of being for the people.

04:25When you're seriously hurt, your injury could be worth millions, like little baby

04:29boy Luke here, who, after this fall, wasn't able to turn left ever again.

04:34Morgan & Morgan don't settle for lowball offers.

04:37They achieved significant verdicts in the past couple of months for victims involved

04:40in life-altering car crashes.

04:42If you've ever been seriously injured, your case could be worth millions, and you're

04:46only a few clicks away from potentially changing your life.

04:50It's so easy.

04:51You can start your claim now with Morgan & Morgan using the link in the description below.

04:57Don't be a little baby loser boy like Luke.

05:00Ow.

05:01Tonight's episode of Raw was actually taped last night in Saudi Arabia, so the results

05:11are already out there.

05:12Skip to the timestamp onscreen now if you don't want to know, because we're entering

05:16the Spoiler Room Brawl in 3… 2…

05:20What do you mean Adam Pearce accidentally became the No. 1 contender to Brom Breaker's

05:24Intercontinental title?

05:25Just kidding.

05:261.

05:27Rhea Ripley beat Dominic Mysterio?

05:28Rhea Sky won a Battle Royal to make her the No. 1 container to live Morgan's Women's

05:31Championship.

05:32A welcome break for the title not being stuck in the Rhea Ripley vs Judgment Day Dominic

05:37Mysterio Vortex.

05:38And Bronson Reed took out Seth Rollins in the fatal four-way main event, which meant

05:42Damian Priest got the pin on Dominic Mysterio.

05:45Pulling Gunther's World Heavyweight title into the Damian Priest vs Judgment Day Dominic

05:50Mysterio Vortex.

05:51I'm Carlito.

05:52Don't say anything racist, Carlito.

05:55The Priest vs Gunther rematch is expected to take place at December's Saturday Night

05:59Main Event.

06:00But that's not really the biggest match for Gunther.

06:03Because all through that Priest feud, we'll be asking two questions.

06:061.

06:07When is Finn Balor going to screw over Priest again?

06:09And 2.

06:10Who's next?

06:13Goldberg announced over the weekend that he will have his retirement match in WWE sometime

06:19in 2025.

06:20It's reported this match will be against the World Heavyweight Champion Gunther, after

06:24they had a pull apart angle back at Bad Blood.

06:27The Wrestling Observer Newsletter has been told the match isn't planned for either

06:30the Royal Rumble or WrestleMania, and it's likely they don't have a confirmed date

06:34for it yet.

06:35But Gorg's announcement prompted a strongly worded piece of fantasy booking from one of

06:40his WWE return victims, the former Dolph Ziggler and current TNA World Champion Nick Nemeth.

06:47On the bell, he spears and jackknifes Gunther, Gunther kicks out at one, three minute match,

06:52and good f***ing riddance.

06:55Or it can be the Steiner Kid, relax.

06:56Nemeth wrestled Goldberg at SummerSlam 2019, where Goldberg squashed him in two minutes

07:01and kept returning to the ring to beat him up more and more and more in the post-match

07:06angle.

07:07This isn't the first time Nemeth has expressed dislike towards Goldberg.

07:11In 2022, when WWE shared a throwback clip of their feud where Goldberg dropped his mic,

07:16Nemeth posted, willing to bet he injured that mic.

07:19And in 2023, it's speculated this Nemeth tweet could also have been about Goldberg,

07:24and a potential disagreement they had before that SummerSlam match.

07:28Arguing face-to-face with one of the greatest of all time that they are in the wrong about

07:33psychology and later being absolutely vindicated makes you wonder who's great and who's

07:38just booked great.

07:39Haha.

07:40But Nemeth is no longer in WWE.

07:42So what about disgruntled wrestlers that are currently under contract?

07:46Over the last several months, Montez Ford has been giving increasingly frustrated interviews

07:50about his position in WWE.

07:52And now talking to the Daily Mail, Ford has said,

07:55"...the Street Profits aren't in conversations when it comes to top tag teams.

07:58We're not in conversations when it comes to anything wrestling-related besides the

08:02fact of getting handled by the bloodline, and that doesn't sit well with me.

08:07So as well as it is going in terms of being my dream job, it is enjoyable as it is frustrating."

08:13While many thought the Street Profits would soar once Triple H took over from Vince McMahon

08:17as they were a strongly pushed tag team in NXT, as Ford says, they've often just found

08:21themselves being jobbed out to further whatever story the Bloodline is doing.

08:25As great as the Bloodline saga has been, it has come at the expense of many of SmackDown's

08:30midcard acts.

08:32Ford confessed he's felt this way since 2023.

08:35On night one of WrestleMania 39, the Street Profits won the Showcase Fatal 4-Way tag team

08:40match.

08:41They then drafted the SmackDown a few weeks later.

08:43But rather than use that as momentum, they had nothing to do for months.

08:47And then they turned heel with Bobby Lashley as part of the new Pride faction… that also

08:51kind of went nowhere.

08:53All these things are running, we have a WrestleMania win, and then boom, it just stops.

08:58And it's been this constant stop and go and stop and go and stop and go with the Profits,

09:03where we'll get momentum, and then the momentum will stop.

09:06Then momentum will start again, and the momentum will stop.

09:09And for us, that's frustrating.

09:12Because it's hard to get behind a team whose momentum starts and then it shifts again.

09:16The Street Profits haven't held the tag team titles since January 2021, and several

09:21break-up stories have been teased, but then totally dropped.

09:24Maybe going it alone could be Ford's best option.

09:27Just look at Jey Uso.

09:29WrestleNomics is reporting that Jey Uso sold more merchandise on the WWE shop in October

09:34than both CM Punk and Roman Reigns combined.

09:39Which is an insane achievement, and surely puts him near the top of the company's merch

09:43selling chart.

09:44Punk hasn't been on TV since his Bad Blood Hell in a Cell match, which might explain

09:48why his sales aren't as big as normal, but Roman has been heavily featured on TV.

09:53Perhaps it's because of Jey's Intercontinental Championship win and his return to the Bloodline

09:57soap opera that's fuelled sales.

10:00But what about that one Samoa wrestler who isn't related to Jey?

10:04Samoa Joe last wrestled on AEW TV four months ago, losing to Chris Jericho in a stampede

10:09street fight.

10:10He was written off by Jericho driving him through a wall on a forklift truck, so Joe

10:14could go film the second season of Twisted Metal, which he stars in for Peacock.

10:19The show's writer has now confirmed that Season 2 has finished production, and Wrestling

10:23Observer have added Joe is now available to return to AEW.

10:27But never mind Twisted Metal, what about Paddington 3?

10:32Don't argue with me, Paddington 2 is one of the greatest sequels of all time.

10:36Click the video onscreen now to watch Luke and Laurie go through the biggest film releases

10:40this month, like Paddington 3 and Wicked.
