About this episode

Happy Halloween week! Ben, Khal, Brian, and David each get in the spirit of the season and throw on a wrestling-themed costume (2:00). Then they get into the following from Monday Night Raw:

  • Jey and Jimmy Uso reuniting (6:18)
  • Sami Zayn inserting himself into the Bloodline story … again (10:40)
  • Who might be the next contender for Gunther’s world heavyweight title (20:54)
  • Seth Rollins and Bronson Reed continue to destroy each other (24:01)


Then, in the Nostalgia Freakz Moment of the Week, they go back to revisit WWE’s only all-women’s pay-per-view, Evolution (27:11).

After the break, they introduce a new segment: “Am I the Heel” where they encourage you, the people, to get in your Reddit bags and voice an unpopular wrestling opinion (48:50).

For an opportunity to have your hot take featured on They Said What?!, leave a voicemail at (202) 417-8160.
