Wow, that's new. Uh 14 00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:34.280 And look, I'm sorry if you're going to have a Stell cage match and 15 00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:38.959 asked me to review it, I have to be totally honest on this and 16 00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:45.599 where I come from, Stell cage matches meant a dollar more on the ticket 17 00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:49.239 price. I'm old. I'm old, all right, So it's equivalent of 18 00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:53.000 something else, y'all you young people figure it out. But it costs more 19 00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:57.519 money. It was a bigger deal. It was something to go. See. 20 00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:05.040 So if you're gonna holiday weaponized, uh still cage match, whoa, 21 00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:14.400 this must be gonna be just out of this world. Okay, Um, 22 00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:22.280 pretty good match. Uh wheep back use or bat use? Uh uh yeah, 23 00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:25.120 that would have been kind with a bab wire. No, we have 24 00:02:25.159 --> 00:02:31.319 a black rose with a thorn um and bringing a chain into it. Uh 25 00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:38.560 and uh Terry Funk rolled over somewhere. Uh. I even Stein kind of 26 00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:40.599 got mad when they brought a bat out. Um. Okay, match, 27 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:47.800 Um, if you're tough on time, Okay, you know I'm gg wins 28 00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:52.319 it. Um. You know I hate to be this way, but that 29 00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:57.960 just it just should not have put these ladies in this type of a match. 30 00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:01.639 I understand what they're doing in the storyline. I just think both of 31 00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:06.840 these ladies need a little more time. They got one heck of a push. 32 00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:09.919 They got a push when there was three of them, then there was 33 00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:14.840 two, and they did what they should put them against each other. Uh. 34 00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:21.039 Just wasn't my you know, just wasn't so big for me, all 35 00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:24.680 right. Uh. Then they go into a battle ground a recap uh and 36 00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:30.080 you know they threw all the matches on the last three big matches. They 37 00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:34.120 you know, kind of do a little uh a little uh you know, 38 00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:38.560 a little longer promo of them and or a highlight of them. Uh. 39 00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:45.000 And then you've got Wesley coming out, who it just has the most title 40 00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:52.560 defenses for his belt. Uh is having a good promo and Diad comes out 41 00:03:52.599 --> 00:03:55.919 and they say they got a present from Joe Gacy, Uh, you know, 42 00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.680 skiss them and uh so they're about to jump on Wesley. Westley gets 43 00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:06.960 a promoter or that gets the uh the commentator out of the way and uh 44 00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:13.120 out of the newhere. Tyler Bait shows up and Tyler Bait and west Lee 45 00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:17.040 have a little standoff, so you know what that means A match a little 46 00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:24.000 later. Uh yeah, and then we've got it's not TMZ and it's not 47 00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:29.720 the other show, their other promotion what they there's they're a take of that, 48 00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:35.240 but it's uh. Somehow uh NXT got the actual booking photos of Tony 49 00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:39.600 d I don't know how they did it, but they did it. Uh 50 00:04:39.639 --> 00:04:44.920 So and then you're gonna have to lead into a promo with Gallus, you 51 00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:46.879 know, because Gallus is going to be making fun of them, saying that, 52 00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:50.720 hey, well we could bring them up for our for next title defense, 53 00:04:50.759 --> 00:04:55.240 but of course don'ty dcent deal. And uh, you know, noll 54 00:04:55.399 --> 00:05:00.639 Stax comes out to defend his honor, and uh he says, he says, 55 00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.040 ok, he says something I don't really I don't really like and it's 56 00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:09.839 from my childhood days. Um, but I've seen it play different ways, 57 00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:15.279 and uh the old phrases snitches get stitches and then he jumps on him and 58 00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:20.040 then what I have seen happen happens. M The snitches peaz the crap out 59 00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:26.560 of you. So I don't like that phrase. You might not want to 60 00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:30.519 throw that out there, so uh just so weakly uh there, but oh 61 00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:35.680 yeah, we gotta have a little little promo, little time with the Men's 62 00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:42.199 Chimp, the n x T Chimp, Carmelo Haze and it's him and Trick, 63 00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:46.600 you know, it's it's him, uh and uh yeah, and Trick 64 00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:48.759 sets him up and lets him get going.

Axim says, 91 00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:07.560 thank you. I guess maybe I don't, but there we go. 92 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:15.879 H They go from there to Dad, which is representing skis them and they 93 00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:20.639 got to have Tyler Bait and Westley coming out and they're going to have a 94 00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:26.160 match now during this match. Now, the match is good. This is 95 00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:28.680 a go back and watch match. When you have Tyler Bate, you have 96 00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:33.360 Westley, and there could have been a turn. We could have seen a 97 00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:35.639 turn, a turn, you know, they could have had you know, 98 00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:39.440 a turn, Tyler Bait turns on Westley, you know, could have had 99 00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:45.080 a turn, but they didn't it was a diade and Bait and Lee having 100 00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:48.759 a great match, and then all of us, sudden, out of nowhere, 101 00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:58.799 Mustafa Ali, mister Ali shows up, comes through the crowd looking like 102 00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:05.600 a Greek goddess and comes down through the crowd, comes down to the table 103 00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:11.399 and sits down with book a tea, which book of Ta proceeds to say, 104 00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:13.759 man, that's a nice looking beard. You got their brother? What 105 00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:20.440 kind of a product are you using? Yeah, that's the talk between men 106 00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:24.720 days. But anyway, uh, he's watching the match and there again, 107 00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:30.039 good match. Fowler's just tearing it up, man. Uh. And and 108 00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:33.200 Fowler does so good for a big guy. That's the reason he's gonna be 109 00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:35.840 good wherever they can tag team him with anybody, they can put him as 110 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:39.799 single as they can, you know. And Jaggers of course too. But 111 00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:43.639 I mean they're gonna be okay. But during this match, you know, 112 00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:48.080 Wes Lee, he's gonna have to kick that hit, that double cardiac kick, 113 00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:54.360 and then we got a Tyler driver by mister Tyler Bait for the win. 114 00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:58.000 Okay, you know we're going pretty good match. Man, I must 115 00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:01.559 see go back if you're go watch some of this minute. This is the 116 00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:03.279 first match of the night, I would say, man, good, boom 117 00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:09.519 bam, get it, watch it. But then all craziness breaks loose. 118 00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:13.360 Uh let me turn the page here, because then we have Ivan Ivy now 119 00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:18.399 and Ava coming out fighting. And then of course the Creed brothers come out, 120 00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:20.799 and die AD's already there, and then and then there's all crap breaking 121 00:10:20.840 --> 00:10:24.440 loose down on the floor, and then of course, uh, mister Bate 122 00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:28.039 and mister Lee are gonna kind of watch what's going on, you know. 123 00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:33.960 And then from the crowd, Joe Gacie shows up and hits them from behind, 124 00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:37.279 starts beating the crap out of him. And then of course you have 125 00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:43.559 mister Ali is at the table, so he's got to get up in there 126 00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:48.320 and get his get his groove on. And he does, and uh they 127 00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:52.679 do, and bam bam, you got Gasie on the ground. Everybody else 128 00:10:52.799 --> 00:10:58.039 is gone, and uh we can see a new angle. And I like 129 00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:01.080 Ali, you and and uh n xt I like it. I think he 130 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:03.679 can help a lot of people. I think he can get more exposure. 131 00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:09.440 I mean when when in my book, you know, my book's not too 132 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:13.159 thick though. Uh, away they go, they go back in there with 133 00:11:13.200 --> 00:11:18.799 this Drew Goo like and that's and and mister Dempsey and THEA miss THEA uh 134 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.279 and uh, you know, Duke's gives her a chance to get in there 135 00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:28.440 and uh and show with the big guys, and they start off of Charlie 136 00:11:28.440 --> 00:11:33.279 Dempsey and uh and and THEA locking up and they go to a commercial break. 137 00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:35.080 So I thought they would come back with something else on that, but 138 00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:41.000 I guess that's next week. Uh So then we've got to have the new 139 00:11:41.600 --> 00:11:50.279 n XT women's champ, Tiffany Stratton with her tiff Time celebration. Hey, 140 00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.279 and she gets on there and she does there talking but you know, I 141 00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:56.399 looked, you know, of course I'm not you know, I'm watching from 142 00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:01.080 TV, of course, and I don't know what they've got live, but 143 00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:05.000 man, oh man, did it looked like she was reading off a Q 144 00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.279 card. I could be me and I could be wrong. Just look like 145 00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:13.000 it to me. I don't know, just look like it to me. 146 00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:18.559 Anyway. Now she calls the locker the ladies locker room out and it takes 147 00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:22.840 them a while and then well she tells and baits them out there that she's 148 00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:28.960 gonna let let them know the first person for a title defense and she pulls 149 00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:31.799 a sample, I mean, she pulls a a move that's used by a 150 00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:35.960 lot of different people that, um, we're gonna have a battle role and 151 00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:39.960 that you know, their theory is a couple of weeks to do that more 152 00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:46.000 time as the champ, and everybody beats the crap out of each other and 153 00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:50.600 you come in fresh. So you know that's the theory behind it, because 154 00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:54.919 she goes on and on and talks about how everybody sucks and how she can 155 00:12:54.039 --> 00:13:00.279 beat them all up. And then she drops confetti and announces it is tiff 156 00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:05.759 time, and which in tune, everyone jumps in there and beats the crap 157 00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:09.039 out of her, throws her out of there, and she says she hates 158 00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:15.960 everyone for ruining her moment. Uh Yeah. And then they got a little 159 00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:18.799 promo they do with Trick, and look on this little quick promo, it's 160 00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:24.480 like a two or three minute promo. Trick shows more uh in his mic 161 00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:28.159 time than I've seen out of him the whole time. Because you got Lash 162 00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:33.159 and Jackson and Mensa coming up, and they're like they're trying to start something 163 00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:37.559 and they're they're going and Trick just plays it off and says he'll be watching. 164 00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:43.759 But the mannerisms, his tone, his everything he did was hate spot 165 00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:48.120 on, spot on. So I give credit what credits due. That was 166 00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:50.639 a good one and they got what is if I say this right? Danny 167 00:13:52.159 --> 00:14:00.279 H. Palmer Uh solo sol us uh soul sol ruka her friend and she's 168 00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:03.279 in the ring and says she will not go anywhere until she finds out who 169 00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:09.679 the hoodie woman is. And the hoodie woman said that she would come out, 170 00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:13.480 so she calls her out, and of course they put her on the 171 00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:18.080 screen and it's a typical to where they're looking at the screen. Of course 172 00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:22.840 it always takes them a little too long to get to the ring without the 173 00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:26.799 crowd hollering, you know, and throwing it off. So she comes from 174 00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:30.720 behind, jumps owner and who is it? Who is it? Who is 175 00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:35.600 it? Do you say? Well, it's Blair Davenport, looking a lot 176 00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:37.840 like somebody over in a W two. But anyway, she comes out, 177 00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:43.320 lays the smack of down with and so we have a match coming up. 178 00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:50.120 I'm pretty sure with miss Palmer and miss Davinport. They did do a little 179 00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:54.039 spot with Eddie Thorpe, which I love me some Eddie Thorpe and they got 180 00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:56.120 Blade in anoffee out there, and they're kind of telling them, you know, 181 00:14:56.159 --> 00:14:58.360 hey, it's okay, you lost. You know, you're young, 182 00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:05.639 you're you, You're You're gonna be fine. But Damon Kemp comes out and 183 00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:11.240 Damon Kemp pretty much says that you're a something that I thump off of my 184 00:15:11.519 --> 00:15:15.799 uh, you know, shoulder whatever. And so that is setting up a 185 00:15:15.919 --> 00:15:22.200 match on down the road in itself. Uh. But but you've got uh 186 00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:26.840 Joe Coffee getting ready to come out and have a match with Stacks, Stacks, 187 00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:33.080 Lorenzen Chinning, Lorenzing Lorenzo. Uh because Wolfgang and and other Coffee brother 188 00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:39.639 they're thrown out. They thrown out for jumping on the gentleman earlier. So 189 00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:43.039 they're out of the building. Uh yeah, like no, seriously, they 190 00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:48.919 got uh when let me make sure. Yeah, they literally when they jumped 191 00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:52.600 on Stacks, they got thrown out. The ref called them. So you've 192 00:15:52.639 --> 00:15:56.879 got Coffee by himself against Stacks. That's a good chance for Stacks to show 193 00:15:56.679 --> 00:16:02.159 what he's made of. Uh, because you got Tony d locked up, 194 00:16:02.200 --> 00:16:07.039 you know. So and Stax comes out fast and this is a good match. 195 00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:11.200 This is a definite another good match tonight to go back and watch man. 196 00:16:11.679 --> 00:16:18.000 They take a simple hiplock and make it look good, you know. 197 00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:21.440 Stax comes out fast, jumping on him, you know, and and he 198 00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:25.679 uses a headlock, an old fashioned headlock for like three minutes of the match, 199 00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:29.320 and he used it good. And they're both going back and forth. 200 00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:34.360 But you got Cofi at one time, I'm gonna you're gonna rob me and 201 00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:38.720 doing really good. It is the matches back and forth, good match, 202 00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:45.200 but it comes down to a chance where mister Coffee has a chance to push 203 00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:51.759 uh Lorenzen into the turnbuckle, gets a good move on him. Uh, 204 00:16:51.840 --> 00:16:57.480 and they have a funny, a funny a funny backdrop where I'm sure it 205 00:16:57.559 --> 00:17:02.679 was just a little slow and it just look bad on TV. But when 206 00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:07.640 he when he was going over, when uh Stacks was going over mister Coffee 207 00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:11.480 shoulder, the speed of it, you could say, oh oh man, 208 00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:17.200 this might and it didn't. The shoulders got turned. So he took it 209 00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:21.480 on the shoulders, but it was close to a head drop. But you 210 00:17:21.519 --> 00:17:23.839 know, Uh, at one point in time, though a little bit later, 211 00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:30.359 uh Stacks misses Coffee's up against the ropes he's gonna closeline him over the 212 00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:34.279 ropes, and somehow there's a mix up there, you know, I guess 213 00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:38.880 because of the sweat or whatever like that, but there's a mix up and 214 00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:45.440 they he goes out and coffee stays in. Coffee covers very well in this 215 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:48.519 and uh, they go out to the outside. He throws them into the 216 00:17:49.279 --> 00:17:55.319 to the stairs, ends up getting a win. It was It was a 217 00:17:55.359 --> 00:18:00.279 good match, and it reminded me of an arn Anderson Berry window match years 218 00:18:00.279 --> 00:18:03.279 ago. Barry was so much bigger and younger, but he was he just 219 00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:07.240 was raw, just wasn't quite there, but he was good. He had 220 00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:12.640 flashes of brilliance and Arne worked with him the best he could. And that's 221 00:18:14.279 --> 00:18:19.440 the kind of match I saw tonight. So hey, we'll see. Right 222 00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:26.400 after that, they go into von Wagner and mister Stone and he's trying to 223 00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:30.880 explain to them or to Vaughan about the fact that, uh, you know, 224 00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:34.519 if you get disqualified, you could lose your free agency. You know, 225 00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:40.400 there's there's things to do about to think about there. So he asked 226 00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:44.480 him, you know, about some anger management therapy, and you know, 227 00:18:44.799 --> 00:18:48.519 Vaughan says he'll think about it. But you know the fact that they're bringing 228 00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:52.279 it up, they're working it the way they are. You know, so 229 00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:56.240 far, so good on that, So far so good. Uh. And 230 00:18:56.359 --> 00:19:00.240 of course they've got dragging off, drugging off, uh, doing a little 231 00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:07.440 promo kind of like showing insights into him getting ready and calling his son before 232 00:19:08.039 --> 00:19:12.880 and getting ready for battleground and what he went through and and uh, you 233 00:19:12.920 --> 00:19:15.960 know, they showed a little you know, a few clips of the match, 234 00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:19.119 and he's like, now the world knows, uh, you know, 235 00:19:19.279 --> 00:19:23.319 pain so good little promo, good little promo. Dragon off does good. 236 00:19:23.480 --> 00:19:30.559 Uh. And then you've got a Cord Jade Ivy now match. Um, 237 00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:33.839 and this this starts off, you know Ivy Now it's just a just built 238 00:19:33.960 --> 00:19:38.359 just solid, like a bulldog. And cord Jade is great. Her entrance 239 00:19:38.440 --> 00:19:42.440 is fantastic. She's you know, getting really really good in the ring. 240 00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:48.359 And she starts out really good. They go to do like a regular tie 241 00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:52.799 up and she starts hollering, oh my, you know from her black eye 242 00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:56.880 from you know, before Battleground, and uh, she does a good heel 243 00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:02.039 move. She's like, you know, called this is a distraction, takes 244 00:20:02.079 --> 00:20:06.559 advantage of it. Uh, you know, and goes through. So uh, 245 00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:11.079 and Ivy shows her power in this match, and and her ring skills 246 00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:17.000 are getting so much better. So really coming on, But I gotta say, 247 00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:21.319 I gotta say I've I've held my tongue a little bit, um, 248 00:20:21.920 --> 00:20:26.640 but I gotta say, uh, it was never more evident in this match. 249 00:20:26.519 --> 00:20:30.440 And I've seen the guys do it too. It's it's not but when 250 00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:37.039 you tie someone up in the ropes to get the advantage and take advantage to 251 00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:41.920 take a second to in this case lick your hand and do the chop, 252 00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:48.519 you gotta use the second rope to tie their arms up. What has happened 253 00:20:48.519 --> 00:20:52.559 to these wrestlers today? They just put one arm over the top rope and 254 00:20:52.599 --> 00:21:00.559 then they go and they put the other arm and they stay there. Really, 255 00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:03.160 come on, now, I mean they used to stretch the ropes. 256 00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:06.720 I don't know if they if they're using different ropes, get go back or 257 00:21:07.000 --> 00:21:11.160 whatever. Just just you know, all right, that's my that's my little 258 00:21:11.200 --> 00:21:15.319 spill for the for the day, all right. But yeah, they they 259 00:21:15.359 --> 00:21:19.640 do this, it's a good match. Uh. You know. I like 260 00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:25.279 the fact that Cora Jade gets up so so many people, so many of 261 00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:27.240 the wrestlers. Now, they do like an inside cradle, and they're just 262 00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:32.960 really slow at getting back to their feet unless they're coming in with a series 263 00:21:32.960 --> 00:21:37.039 of offensive moves. And man, she was back on her feet quick like 264 00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:42.000 she's ready to go whichever angle the lady wanted to go, her opponent wanted 265 00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:48.440 to go. So she looked good. Uh. But in this match, 266 00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:52.160 it's one of those deals where they're kind of pushing both. So how do 267 00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:56.519 they get out of this match? Well, they bring ava out and there's 268 00:21:56.559 --> 00:22:00.359 another one of my kind of pet peeves. All right, if you're gonna 269 00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:04.359 bring somebody in that gets hands on a person, that's called a DQ, 270 00:22:06.519 --> 00:22:11.599 and then the person that you got DQ can be mad and it brings in 271 00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:15.599 another angle. All kinds of angles you can do off that, Okay, 272 00:22:15.680 --> 00:22:19.000 But anyway, Uh, no bad writing on this one towards the end. 273 00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:23.720 Uh you know, Uh, it's just it is what it is, all 274 00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:30.480 right. So you got hanking tank, the hanking tank connection, uh talking 275 00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:34.240 and uh they're talking about how they can they can read each other's minds. 276 00:22:34.920 --> 00:22:40.319 What's your favorite food chicken palm? What's your favorite animal honey badger or whatever? 277 00:22:40.759 --> 00:22:44.279 I don't know. But then no Fie and Blade come out and of 278 00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:48.759 course they don't have the connection and h and uh you know, Blade kind 279 00:22:48.759 --> 00:22:52.680 of says, you know, uh, we ain't fighting. They're not going 280 00:22:55.240 --> 00:22:57.640 to that. Uh. And then after that you've got the Creeds and Diad 281 00:22:59.359 --> 00:23:03.319 buying over head door, hollering at each other like there somebody owes somebody some 282 00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:10.440 money. Uh. So of course that is going to be an upcoming match. 283 00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:15.240 But then you've got your main event. You've got to No Mdar versus 284 00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:22.839 Mellow. And then of course No M's got his his Click, his gang, 285 00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:26.880 his crew. Uh and it's uh yeah, they're all there to support 286 00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:33.559 the super Nova eleven. Yeah, okay. Uh and of course tricks there, 287 00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:38.160 uh and uh and Mellow even when he was getting up going holding his 288 00:23:38.200 --> 00:23:41.680 belt up for the match, he's setting it up, rubbing them ribs from 289 00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:48.880 that spear. But man, okay, I don't give out high high compliments 290 00:23:49.000 --> 00:23:55.119 like this very much. But I watched this match twice, and I was 291 00:23:55.200 --> 00:24:00.640 trying to think. In this match, Mellow seemed to be His moves were 292 00:24:00.759 --> 00:24:07.319 quicker, crisper, his transitions, his counters, even back to his feet 293 00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:15.960 off the mat just fast like like lightning and it looked different to me. 294 00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:22.319 And I don't say this very often, but he looked yes, I'm gonna 295 00:24:22.839 --> 00:24:29.200 he looked a little Ricky Steamboat ish. Yep, I said it. He 296 00:24:29.839 --> 00:24:37.359 looked clean, he looked crisp. He just looked comfortable. He looked like 297 00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:45.279 at any point in time, he just elegant. Ricky Steamboat was, of 298 00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:51.759 course Flair's best match or one of his best match or best series of matches 299 00:24:51.799 --> 00:24:56.200 with an individual. And uh he had some other of course great great matches, 300 00:24:56.599 --> 00:25:00.960 but don't think of Ricky Steamboat in the WWE Now go on back a 301 00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:04.839 little bit further and nwa, Ricky Steamboat when he broke onto the scene, 302 00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:10.200 he was amazing his moves or chris. He brought in a new style. 303 00:25:10.279 --> 00:25:15.559 He was young, good looking, polite, just just just everything. And 304 00:25:15.759 --> 00:25:19.039 man, mellow. I kept thinking, you know, they're trying to mode 305 00:25:19.119 --> 00:25:26.200 him around HBK. But man, tonight, tonight he looked like Ricky Steamboat. 306 00:25:26.680 --> 00:25:30.880 That's just my opinion. But hey, man, great match back and 307 00:25:30.920 --> 00:25:36.160 forth, I mean man, some big elbows by no am, I mean 308 00:25:36.640 --> 00:25:40.640 man, he had a great elbow towards the end of the match. And 309 00:25:40.720 --> 00:25:45.359 here's the deal. They get trick the thrown out. They tricked trick, 310 00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:51.720 they tricked him, Yeah, they tricked him. He hits men's in front 311 00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:56.599 of the ref gets thrown out. And so now it's a big advantage from 312 00:25:56.640 --> 00:26:03.839 mister Darr because he's got his click, his crew, his posse. And 313 00:26:03.039 --> 00:26:08.400 uh it doesn't help the Supernova in the end because right towards the end Old 314 00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:15.319 Nathan Fraser and Dragon Lee come out and cause a distraction. There's a big 315 00:26:15.400 --> 00:26:19.680 jump off the top rope and next singing no Mellow gets him in the ring 316 00:26:19.759 --> 00:26:26.119 a few good moves in Bam, Mellow wins the match because he don't miss 317 00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:30.759 so hey, no braun out in this one. M are we gonna see 318 00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:37.680 him popping up on a show, maybe on the national TV maybe, I 319 00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:41.960 don't know. Uh, we could see that.

If 321 00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:49.720 I would say this was a C plus B minus show C plus, let's 322 00:26:49.720 --> 00:26:53.000 go C plus and uh, you know, except for the bad writing with 323 00:26:53.599 --> 00:27:00.720 I know they're they're not pushing, but they keeping her out so out on. 324 00:27:02.599 --> 00:27:07.079 I don't know.
