- The Nicky’s Club with Nick Barbati: Outcomes (45 min.)SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...
SHOW SUMMARY: This week, The Nicky’s Club is all about outcomes. Nick Barbati takes a look at where WWE’s biggest stories are headed and what the eventual outcomes could mean for the superstars involved. He breaks down the major program involving Sami Zayn, Kevin Owens, and C.M. Punk; examines the evolving characters of Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton; and makes the case for getting Bron Breakker back on track as his feud with Oba Femi continues. Nick also dives deep into the Bloodline story, looking at the key players, where the saga could be headed next, and how WWE can better incorporate the Tongans into the bigger picture.
Join the conversation inside The Nicky’s Club—where wrestling feels like the coolest club in town.
