It’s Saturday and time for Wrestling Observer Live with Jim Valley.

CM Punk is facing criticism by some for wrestling John Cena at this month’s WWE Night of Champions in Saudi Arabia after being critical of others who did it before he did. This seems like a good time to remind everyone that wrestlers, even the ones that say they are real, are not. You want proof? Rumor is that Mr. Iguana is an actual man and not a reptile. Shocking, I know.

Plus, I went to AEW Spring Break Blockbuster in Portland this past Wednesday. I’ll give you my thoughts and the impression it made on a friend of mine who isn’t a wrestling fan.
