Episode 84 - Undisputedly Draped in NXT Conversation

See this SoundCloud audio in the original post

Hi everybody! And welcome, to a ground stomping, battle royale-ing, NXT jobbing episode of the brothers of discussion!  

Settle in as we cover everything from Gallows & Anderson re-kickstarting their WWE careers, to the christening of the Undisputed Era (via something Kyle O’Reilly threw together), and we break down the Stomping Ground PPV for this weekend.  

Not to be forgotten, Michael tries to extend his one answer winning streak in another edition of Matt’s where Matt cobbles together two “real” rumors and create one of his own!

That and so much more is ready to be dissected by the Brothers of Discussion.
