S5E1: Velveteen Dream vs Aleister Black w/Ren Harris

CREDIT: WWE NETWORK

Say my name. No, not Heisenberg. Velveteen Dream. 

For the first episode of season 5, the gang has gathered together once again, this time to break down Velveteen Dream vs Aleister Black from NXT TakeOver: WarGames (see how many times you can spot the second ring).

There are no titles on the line and there will be no rematches. This is simply the story of one tall Coachella attendee with washboard abs in a fight to gain the attention and perhaps even the respect of a baby-faced vampire man.

Joining your boys to kick of this season's informal research project with zero methodology is actress & writer Ren Harris! (@renharris_)
