Crowd still pops like crazy for any RKO, shit is powerful

Most protected move today.

Xavier playing the part of Kofi's kids, right Deezy?

Enhanced interrogation.....ask you government about that.

Told you I didn't believe that retracted carried any weight.

I can't think of a move I pop for more.

 

[Jimmy King]

Good show, Roman and Buddy rocked it.



KING ALI

 

[Cwalker]

I hope the winner doesn’t get saddled with the whole having to carry the scepter, wear the crown and robe schtick. It’s worked like 3-4 times in this tournaments history

 

[Deezy]

Ali wins this....Vince saw Aladin confirmed.

 

[Deezy]

King Ali, yes it is he
Ali of Chicago
Genuflect, show some respect
Down on one knee!
Now, try your best to stay calm
Brush up your sunday salaam

 

[Cwalker]

Fuck that; I dig Ali and all but this better be Drew’s tournament.

And pull a 2002 where the winner gets a shot at the World Title

I'm only pulling for Ali bc he's less likely to do the whole king gimmick afterwards, that's more of a heel thing

Drew MacKINGtyre

What is this shit? It's WWE. All I saw is Murphy can't stand up to either faces or heels despite that fun match with Reigns.

Also Otunga is a criminal hidin' behind his law degree.

Wasn’t he under duress when Roman originally approached him? So technically, shouldn’t that no count either?

Yeah, we talked about that earlier. But I do think Roman asking for THE answer without coaching him for a SPECIFIC answer is slightly more credible than the accused beating him up to say they weren't the ones he saw. That said, he most likely lied in panic. It just doesn't look good for DB to threaten violence for a retraction. If you're innocent, let it come to light on its own.
