The latest episode of the First Black Champ Podcast covers an array of exciting wrestling topics and controversies. The hosts kick off by debating Damien Priest's sudden focus on Jacob Fatu, raising questions about the timing, especially with Fatu seemingly headed toward a match with Solo Sikoa. The surprise release of R-Truth from WWE is also explored, with the hosts reflecting on his storied career and speculating on what's next for him. The discussion shifts to potential betrayals, as the hosts analyze which team is more likely to implode first: Logan Paul/John Cena or Cody Rhodes/Jey Uso. This leads into an intense conversation about the brewing rivalry between Naomi, Jade, and Bianca, as their triple threat storyline continues to heat up. Predictions are made about how this feud could shape up heading into bigger events like SummerSlam. Money in the Bank is a central focus, with a deep breakdown of the men's and women's matches. The participants, including CM Punk, Seth Rollins, Naomi, and Alexa Bliss, are meticulously evaluated, as are the remaining qualifying matches. High-stakes matches like Cody and Jey vs. Cena and Logan and Lyra Valkyria vs. Becky Lynch command attention with their potential implications. The episode wraps with the cheeky "Do We Care" segment, where topics like Sheamus vs. Rusev, Melo and Miz, and the Raw Tag Team Titles are hilariously dissected.
