Block 2:
A listener calls into the show and says he thinks Paul Heyman might turn on Brock Lesnar soon, costing Lesnar the Universal Championship and aligning himself with the new Champion, Braun Strowman. Taz says he loves this concept a lot and it’s definitely a possibility, but he doesn’t think it’s going to happen because he doubts Heyman or Lesnar will want to take that creative path.
Another listener calls into the show and says he thinks the in-ring promo segments between John Cena and Roman Reigns have sort of played themselves out. Taz agrees and he doubts WWE will do another one of those segments on next week’s RAW, which is actually the go-home show for No Mercy. In Taz’s opinion, Reigns should attack an unsuspecting Cena this coming Monday, leaving Cena laid out as we head into No Mercy the following Sunday.
A caller asks Taz if he thinks Braun Strowman is ready to become Universal Champion. Taz likes Strowman a lot and his eyes are glued to the television every time Strowman is on the show. However, he doesn’t think Strowman’s quite ready because there’s still something missing from Strowman’s entire presentation.
Taz can’t put his finger on exactly what’s missing right now, but he does think Strowman will eventually become a complete package. Taz also points out that his opinion doesn’t matter, because he thinks Strowman will be Universal Champion sooner rather than later.
