He says he doesn’t have a problem with Colin Jost or Michael Che being involved in the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. He wasn’t a big fan of the segment on RAW but that doesn’t mean he hates their involvement all together.
X-Pac likes how WWE has “heated up” Drew McIntyre so quickly heading into his match with Roman Reigns. He thinks people are really invested in this match. He liked Reigns’ response to McIntyre on RAW this week, as Reigns was quite believable talking about his family.
He’s not sure who’s going to lose this match because both men kind of need a win. He notes that a loss to Reigns won’t hurt McIntyre but the path McIntyre has been on usually culminates with a win at ‘Mania, so this match is quite interesting.
It’s been 18 years since WCW’s last episode of Monday Nitro and X-Pac says he’s not sentimental about that at all because he had already moved back to WWE and the winning side by that point. He notes that there were mixed feelings backstage when Vince McMahon bought WCW because they were happy to see McMahon win, but they knew that it mightn’t be the best thing for business or for their peers who were looking for work.
He adds that there was so much ridiculous behaviour when WCW guys made their way to WWE. WWE performers were looking for any reason to attack the WCW guys.
That sums up today’s episode of X-Pac 1, 2, 360. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya next week for another recap!
