Ep. 131: The Big Dog Returns Home w/ Olive Rae Brinker

Episode Summary

This week Danielle and Lindsey are joined by Olive Rae Brinker! She’s the creator of the webcomic "Rae the Doe". Olive came in and out of wrestling as a fan for years until she finally found the one storyline that actively hooked her. Hint: it involved Cody Rhodes, but not in a role that he was very proud of. The panel will get into what was week of returns for the WWE. That includes Batista coming back to beat up Ric Flair and presumably challenge Triple H to a match at WrestleMania. Who would’ve thought it would be so hard for an Avenger to get the attention of Hunter! Plus, how do we feel about Kevin Owens being immediately inserted into the WWE Title match to replace Kofi Kingston? And whose stock is on the decline after they’ve had to deal with so much sub-par booking over the course of the last month? Main Event Roman Reigns returned to Monday Night Raw to deliver the message that we’d all hoped to hear for months: His leukemia is officially in remission. What does this mean for the WWE’s flagship star? Does he have a match at WrestleMania? And hwo soon should the WWE wait before putting him back in the Universal Title picture? The Three Count Olive put over Macho Man not talking. Lindsey put over Batista’s love of dogs. Hal put over "Something to Wrestle With Bruce Prichard’s"episode focussing on Christian. Danielle put over Refs as wizards. Hosted by Hal Lublin, Danielle Radford, Lindsey Kelk and Olive Rae Brinker. Produced by Julian Burrell for Maximum Fun.
