At Steelers practice on Thursday, Watt addressed the video for the first time. While he isn’t quite sure what happened, he did joke that his athleticism saved him from a bigger incident.

Bonnie Raitt’s “Something to Talk About” was released in 1991, and, while you may not have heard it directly, it’s no doubt been sonically flowed in your ears while grocery shopping, sitting in a dentist’s chair or at your bar of choice.
The reason I am randomly bringing up a 32-year-old song in a pro wrestling column is that AEW pay-per-views always give people something to talk about—both for intended and unintended reasons. This Sunday’s Double or Nothing should be no different.
