Jobbing Out - February 22, 2017 (Lucha Underground's Brian Cage is our guest)

Another whirlwind week in the world of wrestling, as the guys break down some of the strange decisions that were made by the WWE creative staff. They start by talking about the surprisingly great Braun Strowman/Big Show match, where Aaron asks the question of why they're positioning Strowman in this way. They dissect Braun's path, and also talk about the idea of The New Day as Wrestlemania hosts, what the hell happened with Enzo on RAW and if the WWE just made a huge mistake, plus Bayley deciding to hang on to to the title. In segment 2, they talk Smackdown, and specifically the end of the battle royal. Should the WWE have just gone ahead and plowed through with the story they wanted to tell, despite the fact that everyone saw AJ hit first? Plus, Naomi's injury, Alexa winning the title again, Miz/Cena, and more. Finally in segment 3 (59:00) the guys are joined by Lucha Underground wrestler Brian Cage, who will appear for MCW on March 3. We talk about Lucha Underground, and some of the wild things he's been involved with on the program. He then talks about some of the issues around Lucha Underground right now, including the surprise midseason break. Lastly, he gets around to some controversy that's brewing right now between him and CMLL's Sam Adonis, and even challenges him to a match Wrestlemania weekend. After Brian departs, the guys wrap up the show by talking about the passing of George "The Animal" Steele, Ivan Koloff and Nicole Bass, plus DDP heads to the Hall of Fame, and The Rock placed a phone call that didn't go over well with the WWE.
