It's Gunther in the ring.
Gunther can make a mop look good.
And Cody's no slouch himself, obviously.
Right.
Coming up next, would it be a mistake for Oba to lose to Brock Lesnar at Clash in Italy?
Your one stop match.
Pro Wrestling Nation, 24-7, channel 156.
I left you with a gigantic tease before we went to our last one.
We were talking about Clash in Italy tomorrow.
And I said one of the matches of the five to me is the most important of the entire weekend.
And it has nothing to do with any of those championship matches.
And I am looking at Obafemi, and I am looking at Brock Lesnar.
Something we discussed with Obafemi coming out of WrestleMania 42 is I did not understand his creative direction.
I didn't understand why he wouldn't take the route
of a Royce Keyes or a Jacob Fatu and try to make a bigger name for himself or go after world titles or try to take his opportunities while he was willfully sitting back and waiting for opportunities to come to him and orchestrating his open challenge.
We found out after three weeks that was their way of buying time, make people realize Brock Lesnar, make people think that Brock Lesnar had retired, and then they do the shock value, the return, Brock's back, and he's coming back for Obafemi.
People look at that marquee, Mark, that says Femi v. Lesnar 2, and they immediately think we're going to get Femi vs. Lesnar 3 at some point, whether it's in Saudi Arabia, whether it's in Minneapolis, what have you.
And I think everybody has kind of...
reserve themselves to believe that Obafemi is going to lose this match tomorrow to set it up to set up that third rubber match.
And I can't help but think that that's a bit of a risk.
