WWE Raw Talk Recap: (4/19/21)

Hello again wrestling fans, and welcome back to the Raw Talk Recap! After the most recent episode of Monday Night Raw came to an end, WWE taped another episode of Raw Talk, which you can watch now on Peacock and the WWE Network. Raw Talk is hosted by Kevin Patrick, and his co-host, Xavier Woods. The guests on the show will be MVP, Damian Priest, Naomi, and Lana. Now that we’re all caught up on what’s going down, it’s time to talk!

Raw Talk

Kevin kicks off the show by talking about everything that went down on Monday Night Raw. Woods and Kevin cover everything from playing the bass guitar, to the successful title defense by Sheamus, as well as what happened with Charlotte Flair at the end of the night. Once the opening thoughts wrap up, Kevin welcomes on the first guest.

MVP

P observes that Kevin “has downgraded in the co-host department”, and Woods reluctantly congratulates MVP. Woods and MVP bicker a bit, and Kevin goes “back in time”. Kevin asks for MVP’s thoughts on Lashley retaining at Wrestlemania, and he says “I told everybody it would happen”. Xavier wants to know what Chief Hurt Officer means, and he says “I don’t feel like explaining things that don’t need to be explained. Go google it”. Kevin wonders if MVP is conspiring with Mace and T-Bar, and MVP claims “I don’t know why they do what they do, but I’m excited by it. I enjoy it, and I like watching their work”. Woods makes a backhanded compliment, and MVP ignores him by talking to Kevin. Kevin wonders if MVP has any concerns about Drew McIntyre, and MVP sarcastically asks “did he look so concerning unconscious at WrestleMania”? MVP finishes by saying “business is going exceptionally well”, and he tells the hosts “the pleasure was al yours”, as the segment ends.

Naomi and Lana

After Adam Pearce stops by to tell the hosts “Charlotte Flair is suspended indefinitely”, Naomi and Lana join the show. Xavier gets hyped about “tag teams joining the show”, and Kevin wants to know about their big win on Raw. Lana talks about how the champions “cheated”, and Naomi explains “a win is a win”. Kevin wonders if they believe they have earned a tag team championship shot, and the duo stumbles over their words, as they try to explain “we’re the future tag team champions”. Woods asks about how Lana and Naomi build chemistry, and Lana tells him “we have really formed a bond through dancing. We can do TikTok, we can fight, and we are future tag team champions”. Naomi adds “I’ve been serious, and when I am serious, watch out”. Kevin asks about Wrestlemania, and Lana panders to the WWE Universe, calling their return “an emotional moment”. Xavier asks one last question, and he wants to know what it’s been like to be back “in your element”. Naomi responds by saying “working with Lana is extremely special. The Wrestlemania entrance was different because I had Lana beside me”. Lana adds to the comments, and says “if we don’t believe in ourselves, how will we convince anyone else to believe in us”. Kevin thanks them both for joining, and the segment comes to a close.

Damian Priest

Damian and Xavier jam to Priest’s entrance music, and Kevin wants to know how the champagne tasted. Damian says “ah man it was trash. I love champagne, and that was not good”. Kevin warns Priest about getting involved with “The A-List Couple”, and Damian sends a message to The Miz, stating “bring her all you want, it doesn’t matter. This is what I do”. Woods joins the conversation, and he wants to know how Priest is feeling. Damian explains his last few weeks with Bad Bunny, and says “we had sweet entrances. That’s why we do this, for the moments”. Kevin hops back in, and asks about the dedication Bad Bunny had. Damian tells Kevin “he did it his way. This was a dream for him, and he thought it wasn’t achievable. He worked for his dream, like, he did it all. I was so happy to stand there and watch him shock the world”. Woods reminds everyone that Priest is a 17 year veteran, and he wants to know what’s next. Damian responds, and tells Xavier “I want things that stand the test of time. I want my name to live forever. Creating moments is the goal. I want everything”. Kevin thanks Damian for stopping by, and the show fades to black.

That’s all for this weeks Raw Talk Recap! Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day everyone!
