Rick Ucchino

And, you know, going back to one of the things that you said about, you know, his promo exchanges with with Oba Femi, where Oba was the one who kind of came out on top of that.

I'm wondering how much of that was by design.

Yeah, because you don't want Ricky, you know, burying your next big thing.

Right.

Clearly, they had Oba on this trajectory that took him to WrestleMania 42, where he essentially squashed Brock Lesnar.

So I'm wondering how much of Ricky's charisma and trash talking and all that stuff that they knew that he had in spades.

They kind of like.

put some restrainers on him a little bit to kind of help some of the other guys get over and see if maybe they can use Ricky in that way before ultimately graduating him up to the main roster.

Kind of the same.

I felt like I should have saw this one coming because as while we were sitting here wondering what was next for Cody, at the same time, Gunther kind of disappeared after WrestleMania.

He had that one quick little backstage promo segment where he said, you know, it's time I turn my attention back on winning my world championship.

And we all assume that meant the world heavyweight championship.

But with that currently around the waist of Roman Reigns,

And then you got the WWE title that's around the waist of a battered and bruised Cody Rhodes.

Man, Gunther's a vulture.

He's going to come in and he's going to pick the bones clean of wherever can get him to the next best spot.

So I should have seen this one coming.

And I especially should have seen this one coming with if Jacob Fatu looks to be transitioning to Raw...

as he's going to be challenging for the World Heavyweight Championship.

And maybe that's a direction they go.
