He says that he also doesn’t mind fans doing the wave, but the one thing that bothers him and most of the talents is the ‘boring’ chant. He adds that when he was doing commentary he’d try to talk non-stop when one of those chants broke, out in an attempt to drown out the chant.

Moore says it was great to see Jim Ross return to the announce booth for the Aleister Black/Hideo Itami match at Takeover. He says he’s a much bigger fan of Ross’ commentary compared to Mauro Ranallo’s. Lawler points out that it was strange hearing Ross as the colour commentator, and there seemed to be some confusion between him and Ranallo since they’re both play-by-play guys at heart.

Lawler says he’s unsure if The Undertaker was backstage at SummerSlam on Sunday because he didn’t see him and he didn’t hear anyone talk about him. Lawler points out that every WWE talent, himself included, had to get scanned for a new WWE video game on Sunday, so maybe Undertaker flew into Brooklyn for that.

Moore points out that Monday Night RAW is coming to Memphis next Monday, and he asks Lawler if there are any plans for him to make an appearance on the show. Lawler says that he hasn’t been contacted by WWE as of yet but WWE doesn’t begin thinking about RAW’s creative until a few days before, so he might get a call later in the week.
