Well it happened didn't it? Crown Jewel was most certainly a show, and some things most certainly did happen on that show. Most of all, the thing to take away from this show though is that The Fiend Bray Wyatt is now Universal Champion. We're not quite sure how it happened, but it did. Oli and Laurie are here to talk about everything that happened at Crown Jewel 2019, including that match, plus Cain Velasquez, Tyson Fury and so much more!

Well this show got a little out of hand didn't it?

What ensued was hilarious, so enjoy the chaos on this very unique episode of the WrestleTalk Podcast. We promise this is a one-off. Unless they come back, in which case, we'll totally get them again.

It was a fantastic night for All Elite Wrestling, and another great episode of AEW Dynamite - which had a sensational match between Private Party and the Lucha Bros, as well as SCU vs. Dark Order, Young Bucks vs. Best Friends, Kenny Omega vs. Joey Janela and Pac vs. Jon Moxley!
