Haven't seen it, but from context:

WWE Superstars and Proud Australians Rhea Ripley and Grayson Waller filled shoes with beer and then drank the beer from the shoe, a classic Australian tradition*

*that has only emerged in the last decade, it wasn't around before that**

**confirmed by me, Australian from birth

Good luck with your depression!
Meltzer reported that Cody is being retooled while Rock is in the title picture, he read out this press sheet which was supposed to sum it up:

"Cody Rhodes will soon be redebuting as Oh No Cody-o!!

With his charming tattooed neck! Steaming arroz con pollo hat! Cute weight belt! Cool boots, vital for any wrestler! And his bold and trendy Oh No shirt! That's right! He's the pride of the midcard...
Oh No...Cody-O!!"

Rhea Ripley and Grayson Waller doing a shoey is fun, but if they really want to capture fans in 'straya Grayson should do a bubbler

Piss beer out of a stinky shoe is about the level of the product so of course the fans love it.

Nah, its at least 20 years old - originally it was "shoot the boot" and coined by Rugby players, so of course we shortened it to shoey about a decade ago.

Not blaming you for not knowing it though, because Rugby loving sucks.

The cargo ship containing the Elimination Chamber as well as other set pieces got boarded temporarily by Actual Pirates in the red sea, which might be symbolic

E: correction: they had to reroute it to avoid pirates. still! Pirates! Paul Burchill!

They had to reroute because of all the bombing right?

Are we really having another event with only four matches? Did they just decide not to invite any of the midcard?

Here's the actual quote

Cole: “This is a structure which took over a month to get here. Originally, it was supposed to ship through the Suez Canal, but pirates made sure that didn’t happen. So it was sent to Miami. It was then shipped by truck to Los Angeles, put on a ship to Sydney, sent on a train over here to Perth. And now the Elimination Chamber is being constructed as we speak, right behind us in the stadium here in Perth.”

Graves: “Did you say pirates, Cole?”

Cole: “Yes, pirates in the Suez Canal.”

Graves: “We had to endure actual piracy to get here to Perth.”

He doesn't say it got boarded he just says it was supposed to go through the Suez Canal but got rerouted to Miami.

Yeah that was me getting clickbaited super hard by a bleacher report tweet saying it had been actually interrupted by pirates, despite then going to CSS to get a not-made-up version. Media Literacy++

In conclusion, maybe we should learn from the pirates and not pay for the show imo

I'd be more interested in a movie about trying to transport the Elimination Chamber through pirate infested waters before the show starts than the show itself. Alternately a movie about what pirates would do with an Elimination Chamber.
