Big E

We've done so every single week for countless amount of weeks.

That is right.

I did not expect to see a World Heavyweight Championship match tonight.

Yeah, I was like, oh my gosh, we're gonna have AJ Styles as your new World Heavyweight Champion, and then we're gonna have maybe CM Punk, he enters the Royal Rumble, and then what could possibly happen?

Like, my brain was going a million different directions trying to figure out what's gonna happen Saturday at the Royal Rumble, and meanwhile, Finn Balor

just surprises all of us after backstage earlier in the night, we saw him, you know, recognizing CM Punk and having that interaction.

But shortly after that, we also saw him with Liv Morgan.

Splashed in front of your eyes in mere moments.

And it was funny because, you know, during the AJ-CM Punk match, I was thinking a lot about that Finn Balor-CM Punk match that we talked about, Sam, on the show last week.

And we were talking about how Punk, he always just seems to capitalize on one moment.

And that's really been...

the story of cm punk's title reign and i was just so intently watching waiting for this moment that cm punk was going to be able to take advantage of aj's towels and and hit the go to sleep and retain his title and out of nowhere like finn ballard just i did not see it coming all throughout the night it complete me it completely threw me for a surprise

And really over the last seven days, that thought of this could be the last for AJ Styles has really started to feel like more of a real possibility, especially after Saturday night's main event and that match against Shinsuke Nakamura, both of the entrances.

Just the way the match played out tonight, getting the match against CM Punk, it really has me questioning, oh my gosh, is AJ Styles' career going to be ended by Gunter?

at the Royal Rumble.

And when he's making his entrance, you're thinking like, shoot, this could be AJ's last Raw ever.

And listen, there's still a lot of people that want to match with AJ Styles.

We saw Javon Evans backstage talking to AJ Styles as the show progressed.

The amount of times you call people Unc on our show is ridiculous.

Oh my gosh, you have the references tonight.
