What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Welcome to the Busted Open Podcast. This is Dave LaGreca. On today's episode, we talk backlash. That's right. Me and Bully Ray. What's John Cena's big announcement? What are we going to see between Jacob Fatu and Roman Reigns? All that right now on the Busted Open Podcast.
What is John Cena's big announcement at WWE Backlash?
This is the Busted Open Podcast. We talked about it on Tuesday this week, and that is this big announcement from John Cena. John Cena continues to double down on this, and we're talking about the last one that we discussed on Tuesday was historic, and then now will shock the foundation of the WWA. So when you hear historic and shocking the foundation, and John Cena's taking the time to cut this in front of the arena where Backlash is going to be come tomorrow night, Bully, like this announcement can't – this has got to be a big announcement when John Cena is throwing the verbiage around that he's throwing around leading up to Backlash.
He also said in a previous tweet earlier in the week – he basically said, don't shoot the messenger. Or he did make a comment like, hey, this announcement might not get over.
Well, no, the exact words was, it may not be perfect.
It may not be perfect. So that tells me that there is a bit of a concern that it could backfire. Do you think that one of the nation members had suggested on Tuesday that it could be a physical Hall of Fame? Do you think that there's any chance that because the announcement is being made in the arena that maybe there's a physical Hall of Fame? Maybe coming to Tampa. I mean, he said that this announcement is going to affect fans and talent. If they were to build a physical Hall of Fame in Tampa, which is where the majority of wrestlers live, I mean, I don't think it's a bad guess, suggestion. I don't think it's bad either. Off the top of your head, what could be the big announcement that's going to once again shake the foundation of the W?
I've heard those words too many times, and I hate to compare it like huge announcement in AEW. I'm so desensitized to the huge announcement in AEW.
How does John Cena's announcement impact the WWE landscape?
Now I'm desensitized to the announcement in WWE where this is, you know, the game is about to change. It'll never be the same. We're shaking the foundation. All of these, you know, trigger words that make us go, oh my God. And then we get the announcement and we're like, really? That was it? Is it WrestleMania? Are they pulling WrestleMania from Saudi, which I don't think they're doing? Are they going to do one night in America, one night in Saudi? Are we going to two nights for the Royal Rumble? Will we have the men's Rumble on one night and the women's Rumble on another night?
I don't know. Listen, honestly, among wrestling fans, Bully, right now, this announcement seems to be talked about more than what we're actually going to see on the card at Backlash tomorrow night. And that's not a disrespect to the card that we're going to see tomorrow night because it's a good one. But this announcement is being talked about because it leaves it up for speculation. You just mentioned the Tony Khan, like those huge announcements. Like, he would say, hey, big announcement coming up on Dynamite tonight, or huge announcement coming up tomorrow night on Dynamite. The WWE is using words like historic and shocking the foundation of the WWE. This is more than just a big announcement or a huge announcement.
You're talking about... The way John Cena is talking, this is going to shake the pillars of the heavens in the pro wrestling world. This is not a big announcement. This is a historic announcement.
Listen, John Cena just split at the end of last year. He retired. This is my last match. I'm done at Saturday night's main event. We didn't expect to see Cena back anytime soon in any way, shape or form. But I'll be damned if just a couple months later, there he is at WrestleMania. Why is he at WrestleMania? Why are we bringing John in for WrestleMania? Well, maybe we need to bring John in for WrestleMania for the same reason we needed to bring The Rock in for Survivor Series. We're a little light on ticket sales.
