RAW is amazing again and it seems SummerSlam has made it much better. The Shield vs Braun Strowman is the perfect main story for RAW, as The Shield have always worked better as heels anyways and Braun is getting cheered. Balor vs Roman was amazing and Balor should really turn heel to feud with the main faces of RAW, it seems like they're building to Ronda vs Steph like SCSA vs Vince which is cool because it doesn't really feel forced. Revival needs to beat B Team, then get beat by AOP probably.

Premier League Weekly Review 2018/19: Game-Week 2  JoshsNow: Ok welcome to the Premier League Weekly Recall Show
JoshsNow: Joining me is my co host Kieron and our guest Marker
 JoshsNow: Mark, welcome to the show
The Marker: Thank you for having me Josh and Kieron
JoshsNow: No problem
JoshsNow: So let’s start by reviewing the league result
JoshsNow: We’ll start with the one I just want to get out of the way
JoshsNow: Brighton 3-2 Manchester United

JoshsNow: What were your thoughts on a disappointing United performance
 Vioxx: What is there to really say?  As a team, we seem to be very dejected, whether because of injuries or the manager it isn't currently clear
JoshsNow: Listen I’ve been an anti Mourinho fan since Day 1
JoshsNow: And I honestly think that the reason we have no leaders in the squad is because who is going to want to play under Mourinho?
The Marker: Yep, that definitely happened, Let get this out of the way, United was really awful in this game and Brighton absolutely hammer them down and it very disappointing for a Team like United to lose to some team like Brighton, Alot of the players thought they did really bad including Pogba, I feel soon enough Mourinho is gonna get sacked, he isn't at his best like the first season and everyone says that it is Third season syndrome for Mourinho and I can't doubt that
 JoshsNow: I agree with Mark when I think that this is his last season
JoshsNow: So what changes to the squad do you think he should make
 Vioxx: I think the Sanchez move really had a poor ripple effect in the squad, for example
 Vioxx: I went to the Manchester United VS Stoke City game in January and Martial, while motivated, was an absolute monster
 Vioxx: Now, after everything which has happened he seems like he doesn't want to even wear the badge
JoshsNow: When as a 21 year old, your manager shows faith in you by replacing you with a 30 year old on 550k a week
JoshsNow: Its no surprise he’s feeling demotivated
JoshsNow: Also I’d be starting Smalling and Jones following the defensive performance
 Vioxx: Personally, although Bailly had a poor game I would rather play a Bailly and Smalling/Jones. The pair together just screams a 5-0 thumping against Spurs
JoshsNow: I am a Bailly fan
 JoshsNow: But he just can make that one mistake in a game
 The Marker: Mourinho has influenced alot of people in a negative fashion and that what you wouldn't want in the dressing room including the people we mentioned and when those guys are your best players on the team, they will 100% turn against you
The Marker: It what happened with Willian, Hazard and countless other people(edited)
 Vioxx: That's what really worries me, this season we could be ending 10th in the league like Chelsea did in the 2015-16 season
 JoshsNow: It’s the Mourinho style
 JoshsNow: He leaves Team in a worse state than when he got to them
 Vioxx: Even stylistically its poor from a fans perspective under mourinho
Vioxx: Inside Old Trafford nowadays its complete silence 70% of the game  with a lot of people not turning up for games which don't involve a Man City or a Chelsea
 Vioxx: And apart from the loyalty to the club, I'd rather watch a Liverpool/City game as a fan of football
 JoshsNow: That’s it now. No longer are we the feared attacking force. We are now the boring team of football
The Marker: Speaking of City, what a dominant performance by them against Huddersfield

JoshsNow: If I need anything more depressing than talking about United this is it
JoshsNow: Sadly I could see Town going down at the minute
 The Marker: Huddersfield in the first placed didn't stand a chance and it proved that with City destroying them 6-1
JoshsNow: I honestly thought they would have a better season than last time but 6-1 is very poor
 Vioxx: They are my pick for 19th from pre season, only beating Cardiff
The Marker: The only player I saw that was good was Kongolo
Vioxx: After the mid-point of the season last year every team knew exactly how they played and they don't seem to of changed much
 JoshsNow: You just realise how far behind the rest of the Premier League they are when you see the squad
 The Marker: He a very good Defender for Huddersfield and they desperately need that player in the back that helps
 JoshsNow: They’ve still got the likes of Erik Durm though but for now a very disappointing performance
 The Marker: But anything else City dominate
JoshsNow: I guess for them the season starts next week
 The Marker: Alan Shearer said that Aguero is the greatest export to come to the Premier League
 The Marker: Which isn't surprising to me because he really shows why that is
JoshsNow: I don’t like Arsenal but Patrick Vierra or Thierry Henry
 Vioxx: Ronaldo?
 JoshsNow: They are arguably worthy of that position
 JoshsNow: Marker if you want to make the argument that Aguero is better than Ronaldo say so now
 The Marker: That what Shearer said, not me
 The Marker: I'm just saying he showing why he thinks that
JoshsNow: Talking of Shearer
JoshsNow: Newcastle getting a point against Cardiff

 Vioxx: Both sides were absolutely abysmal
The Marker: It was a real boring game until the penalty
The Marker: And Kenedy failed to score
The Marker: I like Kenedy alot, but that not good at all
 Vioxx: Anything but three for most teams against Cardiff is a disappointment
 JoshsNow: Cardiff did what they had to
Vioxx: It's a real eye opener to where Newcastle could end in this season
JoshsNow: Newcastle have had a poor start to the season
JoshsNow: They have to take those points
 The Marker: You know who had a worser start then Newcastle
 The Marker: Arsenal

The Marker: With a second lost of the season to Chelsea
 JoshsNow: To be fair to Arsenal they have had a tough start
The Marker: And this was the best game of the week by far
Vioxx: Watching arsenal play it seems as if they have gotten worse though
Vioxx: Especially in the City game where they struggled to put a few passes together
JoshsNow: I think Arsenal have just realised how good of a manager Wenger was
 JoshsNow: I did think they played better at Chelsea though
Vioxx: It's a wonder they don't score more
 Vioxx: they should've had at least 4 but they missed two sitters
 Vioxx: and they have Lacazette sat on the bench most of the game
The Marker: The players have really developed under the style of Sarri very quickly and I'm very happy of that
 The Marker: Kante can now move up more, which is real dangerous to any team
Vioxx: I like how they are playing more openly than last season
 JoshsNow: Chelsea have so far beat Huddersfield Town and a poor Arsenal
The Marker: So as City
 The Marker: But now with Arsenal taking on West Ham, I feel now this is where they shine
The Marker: I like Iwobi on that day
 JoshsNow: They need to start Ramsey
 The Marker: He was real help for the team
 The Marker: They need to start Torreria
 JoshsNow: I can’t believe he didn’t start
 The Marker: He absolutely quality
 The Marker: And Leno aswell
JoshsNow: Idk
JoshsNow: Cech kept Arsenal in the game for a while
JoshsNow: Anyway you mentioned West Ham

JoshsNow: No surprise as they lost to Bournemouth who are looking good this season
 The Marker: Yeah, West Ham hasn't been all good
 The Marker: To be honest, I was hoping they were going to win against Bournemouth and shows us how good they can be
 Vioxx: I feel like its being disingenuous to call them a bad team because of the loss to bournemouth
 JoshsNow: But when you consider the money they’ve spent this time
 The Marker: It only the second week
The Marker: This isn't the last couple of weeks
 Vioxx: They held a lead until the 60th, conceding two in 6 minutes
 JoshsNow: I see them going down this season
Vioxx: West Ham going down?
 The Marker: Nah
 JoshsNow: I think so
 Vioxx: definitely not
The Marker: Cardiff, Huddersfield and Palace
 The Marker: Those are the teams
 JoshsNow: Cardiff, Palace and West Ham
 Vioxx: I wouldn't put palace there either
JoshsNow: Who would you have?
 The Marker: They are only good because of Zaha
The Marker: Let's be honest
 Vioxx: Huddersfield, Cardiff, Fulham, Southampton, Brighton and Newcastle could all be in the hot seat in april
 Vioxx: maybe a burnley if the Europa catches up to them
JoshsNow: Talking of Palace

 JoshsNow: Last nights game
JoshsNow: I think Palace could have done something more
 Vioxx: I think Palace played well for most of it
The Marker: That was a bad game for Palace
JoshsNow: But was it a penalty or a red card
 JoshsNow: Cause I disagreed with both decisions
Vioxx: The red was correct, he was the last man. But I feel like it probably wasn't a penalty
Vioxx: Even Salah looked like he didn't think it was
The Marker: It wasn't a pen, but it was a red
 The Marker: There was connection between Salah and Aaron
JoshsNow: Following last night, a lot of pundits have talked about how James Milner is one of the greats
 JoshsNow: Do we agree?
 The Marker: No
 Vioxx: He has good games, he will never be one of the greats because of his style of play
 JoshsNow: He does always seem to start at the best clubs
 The Marker: Who said that, Jamie Carraigher
 Vioxx: he is more of a role player
 JoshsNow: Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher both said it
JoshsNow: Around the same time Neville was wearing a Liverpool shirt
 The Marker: Carragher, not surprise by that, but Neville really?
JoshsNow: And also in Liverpool news
 JoshsNow: Karius has gone on a 2 year loan to Besiktas
The Marker: Good News to be honest
The Marker: He needs it
The Marker: He needs to regain his confidence
JoshsNow: Join us after the break where we discuss the other 4 PL Games

 JoshsNow: Ok guys we have returned
 JoshsNow: And we are doing some more results
 JoshsNow: We start with Burnley vs Watford

 JoshsNow: It was a disappointing performance for Burnley and you have to wonder whether Europa League is affecting them
JoshsNow: What do you guys think?
 Vioxx: It seems  as if that is definitely the case, with a lot of games and minimum change to their team selection
 The Marker: Maybe, it is, Burnley have won their games in the Europa Qualification, however it doesn't seems like they can transfer that to the Premier League
 JoshsNow: On the other hand though Watford have had an impressive start
 JoshsNow: Could this be a good season for them?
Vioxx: The 2-0 win over Brighton makes it seem promising, however they will really miss Richarlison  against the bigger teams
 The Marker: It could be, we thought without Richarlison or Marco Sliva, they would fall, however, they have been facing Brighton and a tired Burnley, but I feel they will fall as time progress
 JoshsNow: You say Brighton as if they are a poor team
JoshsNow: But it is a team that have just beat a top side
The Marker: Yeah, but that was Week one, we weren't expecting a United win
Vioxx: An upset doesn't mean that a team is top quality
 The Marker: And this was before, not after
JoshsNow: Ok let’s move on to the team that took Marco Silva and Richarlison away from Watford
 JoshsNow: Everton beat Southampton as Richarlison continues to impress

Vioxx: I think Everton have looked really good this season and with players like Gomes, Mina and Richarlison they could really do some damage on the top half of the table
 The Marker: It seems like 50m wasn't a waste at all, but at Watford, Richarlison strive under Sliva, but when he got sacked, he wasn't good afterwards, maybe it could be Sliva or maybe he has to prove that he is worth 50m
 JoshsNow: Penultimate game we look at is Leicester vs Wolves

 JoshsNow: Keep in mind they had their best player sent of I thought Leicester were excellent
 Vioxx: With that and a lack of Mahrez Leicester have certainly overperformed, however, Wolves have had a very disappointing start to the season
 The Marker: Leicester have been doing well in the Transfer Window, signing alot of players like Maddison who is definitely a standout
 The Marker: And Yeah Wolves haven't had a great start with only a draw to their name
JoshsNow: Wolves may have been poor
JoshsNow: But Ruben Neves looks like a Premier League player
 JoshsNow: If Wolves are struggling come January will he still be at the club?
Vioxx: I feel like most of the Wolves players, especially the Portuguese will stay until atleast the end of the season
The Marker: Neves is definitely a standout player at Wolves, but don't forget, they do have Rui and Joao to help
JoshsNow: Final game now is Spurs vs Fulham

JoshsNow: Spurs delivered again, and Harry Kane broke the August curse
 JoshsNow: What were your thoughts here
 Vioxx: I feel like this game went exactly as expected in the end, although the period of time where it was 1-1 was a worry for Tottenham
JoshsNow: Fulham still looked good to be fair to them
 JoshsNow: Do you think they could push for Top 10 this season?
The Marker: Yeah I can see that
 Vioxx: It is a possibility but I wouldn't bet on them
 JoshsNow: Alright let’s begin to close it up
JoshsNow: One interesting comment was Sam Allardyce’s comments on Unai Emery
 The Marker: Haven't heard from it, what has he said
 JoshsNow: He criticised Emerys style of play, saying Arsenal wouldn’t accomplish anything that way
JoshsNow: Are those fair comments to make, especially when it’s an unemployed manager talking about someone who manages one of the top 6 clubs in England
 Vioxx: Looking at Arsenal in the Chelsea game, they made correct chances but just didn't have any end product
 Vioxx: I wouldn't be worried about the style just yet
 The Marker: Well, he has to wait and see, because it only two games in with both good teams and to be honest, he just complains all the time and all he does is sit at home watching games instead of being a manager
JoshsNow: Finally, who was your Player of the Week
The Marker: Alonso or Aguero
JoshsNow: For me, I say Aguero
 Vioxx: I would give it to  Aguero

JoshsNow: Anyway thank you Mark for joining us
The Marker: No problem
 JoshsNow: If you have any topics you want me or Kieron to discuss next week post it on this thread
 JoshsNow: But for now, goodnight

I'm guessing we're finally done with AOP vs Titus Worldwide. I think they should start building AOP up now, maybe lead them to take the belts off of B Team. The women's segment with all the women was awful. Ronda sounded so damn phony and irritated the hell out of me. The attack on Stephanie just seemed stupid to me as well, not rrally justified and only the supposed heels were the ones that cared about it. The main event was good, figured they would put Balor away clean so the fans would shut up about his rematch. Braun and Roman have had good matches before, I'm sure it'll be a good fued. Now that Dean is back, we can finally continue the botched Shield reunion lol.

We see interviewer John Trenton driving through the streets of Bradford. He looks confused at the fact that all the shops seem to be selling curry and that he is driving on the wrong side of the road compared to what he is used to. Eventually he drives out of Bradford and into the countryside where he sees a country house. He parks outside and sees a “Residence of the Scotts.”  John: This must be it. John knocks on the door, which is open. He walks in and sees the familiar house of JoshsNow, however the man who John has gone to interview doesn’t seem to be in sight. He looks in the study before he hears the sound of PAC Man. He walks into an arcade room where JoshsNow is playing the classic game. Josh speaks to John, but his attention is fixated on the game Josh: I didn’t know you were an Evolve interviewer  John: Actually I work for Carnage but seeing as you’re facing the Carnage GM at SummerSlam I’m taking the interview Josh: Fair enough.  The screen flashes up with Level 254 complete. Josh takes another sip of his drink, a cup of tea, before turning to John who is smiling as Level 255 begins. John: I never imagined you as an 80’s person. Maybe an 1880’s person. John chuckles to himself but Josh doesn’t seem to get the joke.  Josh: My parents met in the 80’s so they were big arcade fans. When they sold their business, left Bradford and bought this place, they bought a lot of arcade machines for this room and it became my favourite room.  John looks at the machine and sees the words Level 255 complete. Josh takes a breath and drinks his tea, before Josh takes a look at John.  Josh: John, do you want a drink John: Do you have a beer Josh: I have gin and tonic, or wine and blue cheese John: I’ll take the gin and tonic Josh: I will give it you once this game finishes. John: And how long will that be Josh: Not long, look I’m on Level 256 John looks at the screen which shows Level 256 which is incredibly glitched and impossible to complete John: What the? Josh: It’s a glitch. The fruit rolls onto the screen and means that it is practically impossible to complete. The screen is corrupted so no one has completed it before. You know what it reminds me of. Bailey. John: Bailey? Josh: Yes. My father once told me that where there is power there is corruption. And Bailey is like that. He believes he is untouchable. He can destroy a career just by clicking his fingers. Like Level 256, he is corrupted. But you know something. John: What Josh: I can beat Level 256. And I can beat Bailey  John looks in shock as Level 256 is completed and the machine turns off Josh: I’ll go get your gin and tonic.  The screen turns off as JoshsNow has proved his point. Although Bailey may seem in a different universe and it may seem like it is impossible for JoshsNow to beat him but if there’s one thing “The Gentleman” can do it’s defy the impossible 

I feel like we should bring back the Monthly Awards. It was a good way to celebrate who had made the Best Diary, Promo or Graphic of the month.

7/10. Interesting start Odd. A feud between Mahal and Jericho is something I never saw coming and your other main event between Goldberg and Lesnar should be brilliant. Also Rusev’s performance could earn him a US Title shot and with Balor pinning Miz I expect him to earn an opportunity. Also big wins for Nakamura, Cara, Elias and Titus Worldwide, and it also looks like a feud between Reigns and Joe could be on the cards. Great work Odd and I’m excited for more

Ronda Rousey Comes into WWE and Triple H says Ronda didnt want any handouts or special treatment Nia Jax challenges Ronda to a match and Ronda Responds no because she felt like she was taking the spot away from the women who deserve it and WWE thinks we are stupid And they have the Audacity to hand Ronda Rousey something she did nothing to earn
