Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2529433/fan_mail/new] Gunther needs to leave Clash in Italy as champion. That might be my biggest WWE hot take right now, but after watching SmackDown, I'm more convinced than ever that WWE has a massive opportunity sitting right in front of them. Gunther has already proven he can carry a brand, elevate championships, and make every match feel important. If WWE wants a dominant champion that fans take seriously, the answer is staring them in the face. For years, Gunther has built a reputation as one of the most consistent performers in professional wrestling. Whether it's his historic Intercontinental Championship reign or the way he presents himself as a legitimate threat every time he steps into the ring, he feels different from almost everyone else on the roster. That's why I believe putting the championship on him isn't just the right move for the short term—it's the right move for WWE's future. In this video, I'm breaking down exactly why Gunther should win, why WWE could be making a huge mistake if they go in another direction, and why this might be the perfect time to pull the trigger. Agree or disagree, this is one hot take that I think WWE fans need to hear before Clash in Italy. #WWE #Gunther #SmackDown #Wrestling #ClashInItaly For business related inquiries contact me at:  wrestlechop@outlook.com Support the show [https://patreon.com/WrestleChop]

LA Knight's Endgame Isn't The Bloodline

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2529433/fan_mail/new] LA Knight may have started a fight with The Bloodline on SmackDown, but I don't think that's the real story. While everyone is focused on the confrontation and his comments toward Adam Pearce, there may be a much bigger picture developing right in front of us. The way I see it, this isn't just about The Bloodline. This feels like WWE positioning LA Knight for one final run at the very top of the card. Knight remains one of the most popular stars in the company, but opportunities to break into the true main event scene don't come around forever. That's why his recent actions stood out to me. It feels less like the beginning of a Bloodline feud and more like the first step toward something much bigger. Could WWE be setting up LA Knight for a Money in the Bank victory? If that happens, the conversation changes immediately. Suddenly, the target isn't The Bloodline anymore. The target becomes Cody Rhodes and the WWE Championship. In this video, I'm breaking down why I think WWE's plans for LA Knight could be much bigger than most fans realize and why this may be the company's last chance to fully pull the trigger on one of its biggest stars. #WWE #LAKnight #wweraw #MoneyInTheBank #TheBloodline For business related inquiries contact me at:  wrestlechop@outlook.com Support the show [https://patreon.com/WrestleChop]

The Bloodline Era Isn't Over... It's Just Beginning Again

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2529433/fan_mail/new] The Bloodline may be stronger than ever after WWE Raw from Turin, Italy. Roman Reigns got exactly what he wanted when Jacob Fatu finally acknowledged him, creating one of the biggest moments of the night and potentially setting the stage for a new chapter in the Bloodline story. With Roman, Jey Uso, and Jacob seemingly united, the power balance in WWE could be shifting once again. In this one-take, one-shot Raw review, I break down the entire Bloodline situation, what Jacob Fatu's decision means going forward, and whether Roman Reigns is truly back on top. I also discuss the King and Queen of the Ring tournament developments, the biggest matches of the night, and the stories that stood out the most. I also have to talk about Bron Breakker. Another big loss, this time to Seth Rollins, and it feels like Bron keeps sliding further down the card instead of moving up it. Not long ago, he looked like one of WWE's fastest-rising stars. Now he's taking major losses and losing momentum. Is WWE cooling off Bron Breakker at the worst possible time, or is there a bigger plan in place? What did you think of Raw? Is The Bloodline stronger than ever? And should fans be worried about Bron Breakker's direction? #WWE #WWERaw #RomanReigns #JacobFatu #thebloodline  For business related inquiries contact me at:  wrestlechop@outlook.com Support the show [https://patreon.com/WrestleChop]

My Biggest Problem with Clash in Italy

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2529433/fan_mail/new] WWE Clash in Italy delivered a strong night of wrestling, memorable moments, and some major storyline developments, but one result is going to have fans talking for a long time. In this review, I'm breaking down the entire premium live event from Turin, Italy, including Roman Reigns vs. Jacob Fatu in Tribal Combat, Cody Rhodes defending the Undisputed WWE Championship against Gunther, and Brock Lesnar's shocking victory over Oba Femi. The biggest talking point of the night was Brock Lesnar defeating Oba Femi after an absolute war. WWE protected Oba by having him survive multiple F-5s and continue fighting, but I'm still not convinced this was the right decision. If Oba Femi is supposed to be one of WWE's future top stars, was this the right time to have him lose? We'll discuss what this means moving forward and whether WWE made the right call. Roman Reigns also retained against Jacob Fatu, meaning Jacob must now acknowledge Roman as Tribal Chief, adding another chapter to the Bloodline saga. We'll also cover Cody Rhodes vs. Gunther, Rhea Ripley vs. Jade Cargill, Sol Ruca capturing the Women's Intercontinental Championship from Becky Lynch, the atmosphere in Italy, the best and worst moments of the show, and my overall grade for WWE Clash in Italy. Did WWE deliver another great international PLE, or were there too many questionable booking decisions?

What A Match! Only One Grande Americano Remains...

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2529433/fan_mail/new] Chad Gable and El Grande Americano went to war in a Mask vs. Mask match, and somehow exceeded the already sky-high expectations. From the opening bell to the final moments, the intensity never let up as both men threw everything they had at each other in one of the most memorable matches of the year. The drama, the near falls, the crowd reactions, and the emotion surrounding the masks made every second feel important. This wasn't just another wrestling match—it felt like a true battle where both competitors were fighting for their legacy. By the end of the night, there was only one Grande Americano left standing. In this review, I break down everything that made this match special, discuss the biggest moments, and explain why I believe this was a legitimate five-star performance. Let me know in the comments where this match ranks among your favorites of the year and whether you think it deserves Match of the Year consideration.
