In your MACtion dinner theater, that’s Kato Nelson playing the role of Roman Reigns and Cunningham playing the role of Brock Lesnar. That’s also totally not allowed on a football field and got Cunningham an ejection. Uh... ya think?
Sure, it was excessive. Maybe it was a dirty play. But man, great form on that suplex. Somebody page Paul Heyman, because that’s textbook. Welcome to MACdown on Tuesday nights.
