Chris Van Vliet!
Ah, yes. Welcome back, my friend, to another one here on Insight. It's me. It's me. It's CVV. Chris Van Fleet. I hope you've had a great week. Thank you for keeping me company on this Friday. And thank you for making Insight the number one wrestling podcast on the entire planet. Hit a flying forearm on that follow button on Spotify or Apple or wherever you're listening. If it is Spotify, could I ask you to take four seconds today to leave a rating for the show on there? That helps so much. Just go into the show's main page, click the three little dots, dot, dot, dot, and then you'll see rate show. If you're listening on Apple, my goodness, a rating or review would just mean so much to me on there. So thank you for even just considering it, even just thinking about it.
Thank you. I love this episode with AJ Styles that we had on Tuesday. I hope you enjoyed that chat as much as I did. You've been listening to the show long enough. You know that I'm a huge TNA fan. And especially that era, like 05 to 09, I loved it. And AJ Styles was the guy when you think of TNA, especially during that era. So to be able to sit down with him and talk wrestling, is always amazing. This is the second time he's been on the show. But to talk with him six-ish months, five and a half months after his retirement, it was just so interesting to see his look back at his career, look back at the last year or so, and whether we knew it or not, this was like an unofficial retirement tour. And he did a lot of things over this last year that he always wanted to do.
And also... I briefly, very briefly, was able to get into the ring with him at Rusev's Wrestling School here in Nashville, Catch Wrestling Academy. And I locked up with him. And it's been a long time since I trained. Like, I trained when I was still in college. So he was like, oh, wow, that's... Very, very tight on the collar and elbow tie up there. And he gave me some very brief pointers for someone who's not going to be wrestling. But I'm just saying, it was so cool to get in there with the man that John Cena says is the best to ever do it. And you've heard the silly synonym names that I have for wrestlers. The synonyms like The Big Show is The Large Program. Badass Billy Gunn is Evil Anus William Firearm.
Well, Tuesday's episode, this one's so dumb. Alan Jones Techniques. AJ Styles is Alan Jones Techniques. If you want to stop listening to the show now, I completely understand. It's been a good ride and I appreciate you. But if you haven't listened to that episode on Tuesday, what a chat. And then also Dragon Lee on Thursday. Yes, we did AJ Lee this week. The team of AJ Lee. I love it. It was so fun. Also, so good to see so many of you guys at Madison Square Garden last weekend for Saturday night's main event. What an arena. Like, so cool to be able to cross that off my bucket list. I was three for four on the Saturday night's main event predictions. And in my defense, I made those predictions before SmackDown, obviously, as CVV aired during the day on Friday.
Had I watched SmackDown, Had I known that the stipulation would be that if Sami Zayn and Gunther won that match, it would be a fatal four-way for the WWE Championship at SummerSlam, I would not have made this choice. I was like, oh, you know what? There's going to be some dissension here with Punk and Cody Rhodes. And there was. And we'll get to that a little bit later on in the show. But had I known that this would be the stipulation, I would have been like, you know what? I just don't think they're going to do a four-way match at SummerSlam as one of the main events. I just, not enough time to build up to this. I feel like especially with the way the WWE has been doing main events and especially title matches, I just felt like we were going to get a one-on-one match.
So as soon as they announced the stipulation, I went, I wish I could go back and rerecord just that section. I've asked CVV because I just knew. I knew it was going to be Cody Rhodes and CM Punk somehow finding a way to win, which is exactly what happened.
