Hello, everyone, this is Memphis Mark along with Maverick, and it's maintenance
Maverick from now on. That I'm correct. Yeah, so you're absolutely correct.
All right, Well, I'll make sure I try to remember that I
don't want to piss off a service guy immediately starting a show. So we
will go and which look, I mad, we are here for the Collision
review on seven to one, and well, yeah, you know, the
only way I know to do it is just kind of dive right into it,
I guess. And they started off with the interviews setting up for the
Owen Heart Memorial Tournament, of course, but you know, interviews weren't that
budget Hobbs and Dustin and Roderick Strong and Samoan Joe. I mean, what
do you think of the start offs? So I really enjoyed once again we're
seeing just straight into these interviews. It's kind of like a cold open of
just any TV show, no opening theme or anything, you just go straight
into it and it just shows a little bit of what we have to come,
showing everybody and their opponent just talking back and forth to each other.
I really enjoyed hearing Dustin Rhodes his opening just talking about that he was a
friend of Owen Hart, and that he is doing it for Owen this uh
this tournament. I really really enjoyed hearing that, just because it shows how
long he's been in this business, and it shows how much he has given
and how he's still around. Almost all of the guys who were around back
then, they're not wrestling anymore, at least not on a weekly basis like
he is. What did you think of that parting, Yeah, you know,
you're exactly right. I mean, if you look at this these matches
coming up, Hobbs was probably a kid if we are a baby one.
Owen Hart had his tragic accident, and you know, Dustin's the only one
in that group that you know, could have had the tents who wrestled with
him. So and Dustin's good man, it's just his time and his booking.
It just never really worked out. Now when he was younger, man,
he got a half cup of push, had cup of push, and
h you saw him in championships matches quite a bit, uh, in the
NBA and and and and down in Alabama and Georgia. Uh So, I
mean it's just a lot of people don't realize what he did, and they
just know his father and now his brother. Imagine that your younger brother and
your dad, you're all almost living in uh in those shadows. That's that
can't be easy. That can't be easy, right, I mean, you've
got uh he for so long he was just kind of seen as his gold
dust who and I mean no disrespect to Dustin with this. He was kind
of just a jobber that wwe kind of threw around every once in a while,
like he was on their version of ECW and everything. He just never
really got the chance. Man, I hate that Vince kind of I say,
he kind of wastes him. I'm gonna say it, but yeah,
you know that that could have gone really deep. That could have been some
getting back at Dusty. And there's a lot we could That's a whole nother
show man. We could go into that. But uh man, uh,
they come out with m J f uh from the start. So we had
the champ and he's going against a wait minute, what is this right?
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, moorst more stuff. Okay, we're just going
to refer to him as Jabroni number one, but he was in it.
It was his hometown there in Hamilton's uh you know, is it Hamilton Alberto?
Is it? I mean Alberto Ontario. I believe Alberto birth thought that
Erio was taking over the country. Uh, this match was was just what
you expected it to be. It's a modified squash match. I can I
can call the match really quick. It's a leg move, corkscrew, boom
boom bam. It's over. We'll go ahead and start into that. I
mean, I mean, what did you think of Javroni number one? I
felt like Jabroni number one was just it could have been anybody in the arena,
really, it could have pulled somebody from the crowd just been like,
hey, you want to be on TV for five minutes and that's really all
this guy was. It felt like he didn't really get to do much.
I kind of felt bad for him. I always feel bad for people on
the receiving end of a squash match, but it felt like more of just
an extension of the promo that was to come. What did you think now,
man, I have seen a guy getting ready to go out and get
squashed by I believe I can't remember what naming was using here locally, but
he ended up being Verissa Varissa Visa Rissi yeah, that's what you said.
But yes, I once actually had to throw the Woofie D and Jamie Dundee
out of a place and uh and Wolfie was being polite trying to get Jamie
out, and I turned around and U I was staring at almost almost at
a belly button. And I'm not a short guy, but the guy I
just look up, thinking the worst is about to happen. And he was
as cool as cool could be, very nice, and he apologized and wanted
to make sure that Dundee wasn't messing them on coming back to the cluffs.
So that's that's my old cool story for the first the moment. But then
you have him calling him out, you know, doing the crowd, doing
the old school. Nobody in this arena, nobody from Hamilton could do it.
And we have the appearance of mister Ethan Page and he comes out and
before he can get all the words out, m JF is trying to say
that he's not on his level, and Ethan interrupts and and you know,
does some good work on the stick. I mean, I think, at
least what do you think? So I'll be honest, I don't really know
much about Ethan page, but seeing how he came into the ring and the
way that he smacked the mic out of his hand to go into this promo,
I really enjoyed that. I thought, Okay, this guy is actually
working with this character. Whatever it is. I guess it's all ego,
which I like that he's showing off a little bit more with who he is.
The way he went about it and the way he went into that ego
we're into the promo, I should say it was very enjoyable. I really
liked seeing it. It kind of felt like almost a typical baby face sort
of promo, but hey, it worked for the guy and it led into
a pretty good match. I really enjoyed seeing these two go at each other.
Something that really highlights me was Ethan Paige doing a handstand the turnbuckle and
then taking a kick to the face. That's something I've never really seen before
because I've seen people do that handstand before, like an old what was his
name, Jack Gallagher used to be an NXT and I remember him. I
remember seeing him do the handstand turnbuckle for the first time. I don't know
how he would feel taking a kick to the face at the same time,
you know, what do you think about it? Well, first of all,
if you go on Bill Street past four o'clock at night, you might
see somebody doing But other than that, yeah, you're correct, I haven't
seen that actually. In the Ring and Ethan Paige gets a big black eye
at one point time, I think one of the kicks, and it could
have been that kick, the heel or something caught him in his eye and
that eye started swelling up pretty quick. But I do like the fact that
they are bringing back some of the basic moves and making it. I don't
care if they call it popsicle or whatever, I don't care whatever. Like
if there's a single leg crab, I mean just a single uh, you
know, just something as simple as that. Uh, and m JF made
it look good and made it look effective. Um, I mean, you
know, I like him JF. I mean and his angle with uh,
you know, his contract being up. I mean, I think it's all
pure genius. And uh, he's the one guy. I think when the
guys from you know that, you know that that other place when they're he's
the one guy they're going and he's but it just MJF. It doesn't have
that size sometimes to fit in and over there with the giants, But man,
he might he might prove me wrong. But so something that I think
about m JF and w w E, I'm not sure if they would ever
want to sign thing because the character that is over the character of the fans
love it is basically the Miz on steroids, but so much better. And
I feel like if w got we were to hire him, how would they
fit him in? Are they gonna put him in the mids together? Are
they gonna make it so it's okay these guys are on separate shows or are
they just gonna try to make it so it's avoiding those two being near each
other because it feels like it's it's just a Miz, but so much better.
There's the guy has talent, you know, kind of like my uncle
the Gardner. You know, he's got the opinion that the miss is the
worst person on Earth. I don't really think that as much. But I
don't like his performances as much. But I mean, you see NJF walk
out, It's Canada Day. He's wearing the stars and bars ring gear.
Come on, man, that is classic heel stuff. I really loved it.
What do you think going more into Nja's character. Yeah, man,
I just I think everything about him just glows and and yeah he is as
is it the nez Uh you know, Okay, I could see a little
bit of that, you know, but uh, I just think he's uh,
he just has an old school he from. I bet you you could
go back if I had the time was set down. I bet you I
could find three old hills. Uh that he I don't know that he took
from those guys, but he does sound a lot like them. And uh
man, Uh there was another guy other than Rick Flair. There was another
guy that they they were grooming that didn't make it. His name was Buddy
Landell, and he was kind of a Rick Flair had the rich angle,
but he was more like Uh he was better for the small towns because he
could just really get under the crowds and everything. But uh, he reminds
me a little bit of Buddy Landell. Uh, you know, and and
and and I know Rocky. I think me and Rocky have had a conversation
uh about him, and uh and I know me and Michael have or several
times. But I do have to say, uh, mav we got uh,
we got into all this now we ended. Uh uh, let's see,
well, we'll go back real quickly to the Ethan Page and Evan JF.
But I did not mention that, uh, we will not have,
of course, Rocky and Michael with us this week, because both of them,
uh, Michael's on assignment and Rocky I believe had to do some uh
do some big deals. So he was he had to stay in and do
a little work. So sometimes the crew gets moved around, and uh and
we're just lucky to have MAV that was available and uh and we had to
wait to do it for me to get available. So I just wanted to
say Rocky and uh math we I mean Rocky and Michael. Uh, we
hope to see you back next week if all possible. Uh. That RL
stuff is some real stuff there, man. All right, so right,
so we go back. We got Ethan Page, we got to m JF.
Their match was pretty good. Like I said, I liked the basic
some of the basic moves. I like the big black guy, but it
ends up with m JF pulling out the win, of course. But I
think I think Ethan Page kind of get a little turn trying to do a
little baby face. So I mean, you know, you don't know a
lot about him, but what did you think after seeing this match? So
honestly, I feel like this guy is a main event contender. After seeing
this match, I feel like it was very good match over all. It
boosts both sides, I want to say, seeing that this guy can just
come out just straight up in his hometown. It was nice to see that
he got to perform in front of everybody. It's sad that both the guys
from out of hometown had to loose tonight, but you know what it is,
what it is, it's the business, and he showed that he belongs
there to night. In my opinion, what do you think of him there?
Mark Man, I totally agree. I totally agree. So now that
was the That was the match before we get into the Owen Heart Tournament.
And the first one that we get in the Owen Heart Tournament is power House
Hobbs with qt Ma Shale uh and and Dustin mister Dustin Rhodes um and and
look man, uh Dustin is the teacher for sure, and he's he's guiding
this match. I'm pretty sure he's telling uh, you know, controlling the
match, and and and and making the flow good. But they were definitely
trying to to high light Hobbes as much as they can because he's their young
guy, he's our future. But Hobbs had a Hobbs had to screw up.
He had that. He went to do the press with Dustin, and
I'm sure the sweat and then and the match I've had something to do with
it too. But Dustin's long, man, he's a tall guy. And
uh so after that, they have to you know, they have to do
what they do on Auw Man. They got to bust that head man,
you bust that. So Dustin was the first one to open up to us
and uh and so you know, the match pretty good though, I mean,
come on, man, give me give me this, uh this younger
age opinion of the old guy, the old bull, and the young bull.
What I was seeing was this match told a story from beginning to end.
It felt like in the beginning there was a lot of striking, but
almost no grappling. It seemed like it was a lot of thrown to the
corner. I'm going to hit you a few times, and then he fights
back a little bit. You know. I was just going back and forth
like that, And at first I was kind of bored by it. I'm
like, what is this? And then I start to see they slowly start
bringing out these grappling moves, and it's sorry to come apparent to me.
The story that's unfolding in front of me is, yeah, I've been around
for a long time. Speaking from Dustin Rhodes voice or head, whatever you
want to call it, his side is saying, I've been around forever,
but I can still go. I can still be in this match. I
can still be a contender with you. Even though you're probably twice my strength
and you know, half my age, I'm still able to keep going with
you. That's what I was seeing throughout it, seeing the strikes going back
and forth, the way it was it may not have been extremely apparent,
but the way that the moves and the match was moving, that's what I
was seeing. And especially seeing Dustin Rhodes hitting Big Red that surprised me.
I you know, growing up watching him almost as gold dust, he never
really saw anything special out of him, But tonight I was very impressed with
Dustin Rhodes. I really really enjoyed that. The match itself. If I
could create it, I would give it four out of five Powerhouse, Hobbs
in him. They took care of it business. But there was one thing
that I noticed during it, which was a little strange. I watched the
Fight TV app through that You're not supposed to get commercials mid match, You're
supposed to get picture and picture. So I get to just see still what's
going on in the ring as you guys are seeing commercials. It at one
point cuts to commercial still, so I was a little bit lost, thinking
why is this going on? I think it may have been just a rest
point or something for this time in the show. But I'll bring that up
again later because it happened again in another match. So do you have any
more thoughts on that mark on that match? Yeah, I would. I
would have loved to hear JR. Going go Rid, Go Rid, go
Rid. Absolutely, you know, QT gets involved, Yeah, Dustin opens
up and Hobbs wins, you know, and after that they got to do
you know, they got another match coming up in the and the Owen Heart
Tournament. So it's Roderick Strong and Samo and Joe. The promo was okay,
I mean, you know, do you know the little spot I'm talking
about? Right after the match, I mean, you know, not so
bad. Yeah, you're talking about a small Joe and Roger Strong, correct,
Yeah, yeah it was. Yeah, So what I saw from that,
it looked like the spot after Joe took care of rogect Strong. For
sure, he made sure that he hit just enough of the chair to get
the effect and everything, maybe the sound of the chair just to hit.
But you were not going to hurt Roger Strong that way? Did you see
that as well? Well? I did during the match. Now, I
was just referring to the promo that they did after that. You know,
they had the little short promo before the Muro, the big Neuro match,
you know, the big Miro match, the big opponent, you know,
Jim Browning number two. What was it Anthony Anthony Henry I believe was the
name if I got that right, but name really but yeah, yeah,
yeah it sounds like an eighties hanger band guy. He was a bass player.
But anyway, yeah, uh jib Brownie. Oh no wait a minute,
wait a minute, actually, actually I am I didn't write this down,
but I remember now, Uh wasn't he wasn't Jabroni number two actually a
pretty decent uh yeah he was. He was a pretty decent independent uh wrestler.
I think he was an a tag team. I'm not sure the name
or anything, but actually because he you know, he had some moves and
you know they were Muro's gotta sell and and you know, and he did
sell. He merely. I think it showed me every side. He the
the killer, the the the plan to the crowd, the baby face,
how do you know what he's gonna do? He's insane and all the way,
you know, kind of all the aspects, I mean, the clidoscope,
I guess you would say of a of a wrestler. I mean,
what what what did you sect of the match? Okay, so Anthony Henry.
At first I was just thinking, oh, they're getting a little overbearing
with these squash matches now. And then as the match went on, I
actually put in my notes this is a squash. It's a pretty long squash
because it didn't really feel like one. It seemed like we can't have this
guy completely buried. But he is facing Miro. Miro is a giant,
so he's still going to beat him in the end. And they didn't make
it too long. You know, the match it wasn't great, which when
it's that short, you can't really get all that much out of it.
But I feel like it did its job, which is build up Miro and
just show enough of this Anthony Henry. It was barely a taste of him.
I felt like I didn't really get to see enough of it. So
yeah, I couldn't really think too much of it. Not having enough of
it, That's kind of how I felt it let me want anymore? Man,
what are your thoughts? Yeah, yeah, you know, they're definitely
doing the Miro Demon, but they're they're doing doing his bill give them his
push. So I mean, I see something a little bit later on with
Siam Punk or somebody. They got to go big after after I guess Switchblades
probably going to be next. But speaking of and you know what, I
may have been a little quick on the Jabbroni number two. Uh, maybe
we'll do Jabroni with a small jake, not quite Jabroni. Yeah, you
know, we'll make it look kind of legit. But after that, you've
got you've got Juice and the Bullet Club and FTR and the Whole King doing
their promo and finding out that they are not able to be ringside with Ricky
Starks and Juice Robinson during their match. So, uh, you know,
good little start, all these angles, all, you know everything. So
I mean, what do you think where we're at right now in the show.
So as I was watching this in my notes, I was saying that
looks like the Guns have joined the Bullet Club. I kind of feel like
they could change the name at this point and it really wouldn't make that much
of a difference, but they still want to keep the Bullet Club tie.
You know, maybe give them just a little bit of a distinction as they're
in aw with these two, because I just don't feel like they're true bona
fide Bullet Club members, seeing as who has walked through those doors with that
logo. I did enjoy the promo. I really kind of got to giggle
out of when the Guns were saying we have two words for you. Then
you hear the crowd going out d X the moniker, which I will not
say being that the show is TEG but I enjoyed that they corrected the crowd
saying no, no, no, it's guns up, and you know,
just everybody having that moment of I guess shock once again, both sides going
at each other from both teams. It was just still very good. I
enjoyed hearing God who wasn't I said something about shooting blanks. It was somebody
on FTR said something about man the bullets or the gun club has been shooting
blanks for a long time and you're just now getting anywhere, something along those
lines. I really enjoyed that. And during that I also saw a sign
in the crowd that said where did Savog? I'm not sure why, but
that just it caught my eye and I thought it kind of funny. What
do you think Mark? I missed the sign, I missed the sound,
and I try to watch him a lot, but yeah, I think they're
doing good with all of this, all the build up and everything. And
something about Juice just makes me laugh every time. And I didn't know he
was married to Tony Storm, that they broke that out. But yeah,
every time I see Juice, it's like when he starts talking, I just
see some guy telling me, knock that back, you know, knocked the
milk jugs down, and you know you win a prize. But we go
into the match, man, and hey, the matches, it's good.
The match is good because I love a match. When a screw up happens,
and they make it look good. And Ricky starked, starts tripped h
and when Juice went down to the ground when he was going over me,
tripped a little bit, went into the ropes, started playing it immediately,
and then Juice immediately goes, we're smart. They covered it up. It's
like somebody punched a hole in the wall and the next time you looked at
the wall, it was repaired. Now that is some professionals. I mean,
my my humble opinion, sir, what did you think? I agree
that botch was very well covered up by Juice Robinson. I enjoyed seeing him
laying down and just posing, and I think he buyed a finger or something
at him as well. With it just makes it so much more entertaining,
and it makes you feel like was this part of the show or was this
really a strup because part of me wasn't sure in the moment, and you're
saying that it was a botch. I'm honestly kind of on the fence.
I'm not completely sure, but it was very enjoyable. Throughout the match.
I kept thinking the skills like they set up a big move, but then
they counter it. It's a lot of almost big moves happen, you know
what I mean, Mark, Yeah, yeah, absolutely. And the match
was it was great, and the and the way they let Starts pull it
off, I mean great. But when they jumped Starts after the match and
U and the running by CM and FTR, now that it made me feel
old because them it was like, you know, they were waiting for the
door to open on the small disabled bus and they ran down there with their
walkers and it just it was the weakest run in in a whole while.
All right, I agree with you, it was kind of weak the way
they did it. They could have been a little quicker with coming down.
It's like we're coming, you know, and they sent it on telegraph.
But uh yeah, it makes me think of the movie Deadpool. I don't
know if you've seen it. It's a comic book character, but the character's
pretty sarcastic and he's hunting down people for information. At one point, he's
yelling to somebody in an ice cream you're gonna get run over by a zamboni
in five minutes. Just slowly chick them down and the zamboni. It's pretty
funny. That's what you talking about that makes me think of actually, to
tell you the truth, they did look like some Zamboni's coming down there.
You know, Actually that's pretty good. I like that. We go we
got Lucasaurs and Christian a course, coming out doing their little deal, and
Christian, you know, putting the thumb in the eye, and an interview
like he can do verbally so well. But you got spears coming down.
You've got Sean Spears coming down, perfect tend and I'm not gonna do it
ten times, but anyway, Yeah, he comes down, and I think
he does does pretty good. He does good enough that he makes Luca source
gravel. So I mean, why did you think of the interview? So
I thought it was goofy in the beginning. Once again we're seeing Christian and
Lujasaurus. Christian is taking all the fame. Oh yes, I we are
the champion type of thing, and then seeing uh, spears come down.
I'll be honest, man, I forgot his name when he came out this
time because between him and w WE and here. Now, wasn't he like
t J Perkins or something like that before? Oh yeah, I think he
was something that probably had Tom Selleck played in the eighties. Yeah, I
can't remember the exactly that it was. It was something, yeah, something
right, But yeah, I enjoyed seeing him. I enjoyed his promo.
I thought he seems pretty confident in the way he was speaking, and that's
what I enjoy It shows that you're less likely to slip up. In my
opinion, Christian has to be one of the funniest heals that I've seen in
a while, with this promo or with this whole angle that he's pulling right
now, him and Lucasaurus just being almost co champions at this point when Blucha
Source is the real belt holder. I don't understand why he keeps on with
like, well, I am the champ. When somebody says, well I
want to speak to the champ, It's like, come on, man,
step to the side. It's a good it's a great heel angle. I'm
really enjoying it, but sometimes my brain just kind of messes with me on
it and how to enjoy it. But anyways, yeah, enjoyable. So
the next match was Lady Frost versus Chris Statlander. Correct, yes, sir,
so a man, I I'm gonna start with you, Mark, what
did you think about this going off man. It was not my favorite.
It was a TBS Championship match and Lady Frost, I did hear him say
that her grandfather used to a tag with Bruno Sam Martino, and I did
not, you know, I did not know his name off the cuff there,
but I needed I should have looked it up myself. But I tell
you the one thing I do like, Yes, as far as the match,
I just don't think their timing was there. I think, you know,
I just don't think everything was great on this match, But I do
respect the crap out of Chris strat Lander. My mother was deaf and she
does a little sign language every time she comes out, and I don't know
if she's speaking to someone or if she's just getting the word out, but
I appreciate it myself very nice. So as soon as I saw Lady Frost
step out, my initial reaction in my notes was is this the female version
of the glacier her? And I know my uncle the gardener would be lapping
a little bit if he knew about that, But with her performance, I
may have been right from what I was seeing. I don't know if her
timing was off or what, but it felt like she was botching left and
right, and I felt bad for stat Lander because seeing what she was kind
of dealing with, it felt like I don't know what the female version of
a JABRONI would be. Besides, you know, whatever this was tonight this,
Yeah, I guess so. But so during it, once again I
saw a few botches. One of them was supposed to be on the waist
lock. It looked like Lady Frost's leg went in between christat Lander's legs instead
of both of them around the waist like it was supposed to. I saw
after that it was like both of them were slowly getting up, and I
saw stat Lander pull Frost's head to her and it looked like she's using a
hair to kind of cover whatever she was trying to say to her. And
then after couple of seconds, a w went to commercial again. I'm not
supposed to get commercials in Fight TV, so that threw me off once again.
I'm starting to think Aw' is learning how to hide things that were messed
up in the live recording and just trying to make sure that the whole audiences
don't see it. But the live audience still obviously can, and they're gonna
remember and potentially tell people. But yeah, overall that was it was a
rough match to watch, and I felt really bad for Stallent because I'm a
fan of First. I have been since the first time I saw her,
I believe it was on Rampage, and yeah, I've been a big fan
of First. But man, this just this match was bad. Yeah.
Yeah, And Chris of course wins the match, and and who knows if
we'll see Lady Frost again. But we go into the promo about z Mask
with a House of Black, and I'm gonna ask you, Maverick, who
who who else is in this interview? The little yeah what? He And
I liked the interview. I liked, uh, I just I like Andrady.
I really wish they could figure the right stuff to do with him.
But hey, maybe it is against the House of Black, because you know,
that could be the angle that they need, you know, But um,
I just remember when he was hollering the mask. You know, I
just I loved it. I thought it was great, you know, I
just liked a little gown or what was that treasure or treasure island de Plaine
de playing he wanted his mask on a fantasy island, A little dude,
Yeah, he wanted his mask, but uh, yeah, no, I
mean, what did you think of the gentleman that you so namely said correctly?
So he's a very good performer, even just these short promos. I
am impressed by, uh seeing the way that the House of Black is playing
us out. I I'm not sure which angle is going to happen, but
I feel like on Friday is going to dissent into madness somehow. It's going
to be some sort of dark turn for him. I think it's gonna be
a great angle. I feel like the storyline is gonna go somewhere and it's
gonna be really good. We may even go that supernatural route. We may
see something like a I don't know, maybe something similar to The Undertaker in
a way, you know what I mean? Yeah? Yeah, And uh,
look we go into the the actual President of Collision, which is Sampunk.
I know, I'm just getting a Sampunk is calling the next match to
see who his opponent will be. And it's a Roderick Strong versus some Joe
h and uh. I like it. I like the way the Strong comes
out, like moving around and trying to stay mobile, and and Joe's like
very slow and methodical, and uh, I mean a good match and kind
of done the way you would expect the match done. You know, Roger
Strong gets his spots, but the size experience, And at one point in
time, I believe sam Punk said the big melon head of Samoa Joe.
It's provided But what did you What did you think, my friend? So
they are building this up extraordinarily well for CM punk versus Samoa Joe again because
I believe they had a rivalry back in two thousand and six they mentioned in
roh many moons ago. But I'm enjoying seeing the way that they're playing this
out. The match itself, it wasn't bad, but I'm not sure if
it was me or what was going on, but I felt a little bit
of a hard time focusing on it. At certain times. I felt like
I was focusing more on just what CM punk was saying rather than the match.
And I'm not sure why. It's kind of bothering me that I didn't
really want or and I didn't really pay attention as much. The fans were
chanting at one point just for CM Punk mid match instead of Samoa Joe or
Roger Strong, and that kind of I don't know if it's a good or
bad thing, you know, seeing that going on, but you know,
hatch happened didn't seem bad or anything. I really enjoyed the chairs a little
bit at the end, with a CM Punk and Samo Joe both picking them
up at the end play hey, I've got one too, come on,
buddy, And then seeing how Samoa Joe doing that ending spot against Rodrick Strong.
It wasn't necessarily bad the way he did it. He made sure to
take care of Roderick, and I really can appreciate that. Then afterwards,
seeing Adam Cole step out kind of made me questions he's trying to pull the
ultimate face or something here. What did you think, Mark oh Man?
I think it was played Memphis Wrestling Style nineteen seventy nine. I think it's
getting carded out. You know, you have Adam Page, you know,
Adam coming out or Adam call, I mean coming out and uh uh baby
and uh checking on his you know, they had legit looking EMTs. Uh.
Nobody jumped him after the match, you know, and the uh Samoa
seemed to leave, you know, after a certain he kind of left quickly
up the ramp on on one of those angles I saw also made it.
It played it to the crowd like, hey, was this for real?
Because he got knocked up, he got knocked out, so I mean hat
and the ref has to stop the match. And it was so bad there
were so many people mad that a rock waller just randomly just started barking.
Uh So, you know what did you think of how I mean, this
is this is the last of the match, this is how we go off
there. Uh. I kind of thought, you know, it kept people
watching to the end. Yeah, I agree, it kept us kept a
schlue to our seats. Really, as we're watching at the end, we're
kind of just seeing these EMTs coming out. There was only a couple of
things that really hinted to me that this wasn't legitimate, and that was just
seeing certain people being in the way, the way the camera was just in
Roger Strong's face while the EMTs are like trying to get him on the stretcher
and everything. That immediately told me, okay, it's a cell right now.
But they did a very good job with it. I think anybody in
the live crowd may have been questioning did he really just get hurt? And
I think they played it very well. Overall, match was good. I
feel like Samoa Joe is just a great performer. I really have appreciated him
since the T and A days back in once they have two thousand and eight
or nine, I would really start watching back then, between him and Jay
Lethal and all those guys that were there, And I'm just really appreciated watching
his career develop over time. I really always seeing SMO Joe very correction old
person in the ring. What do you think of Samoa Joe there? Mark,
I like some moment Joe. I mean he is uh, you know,
he's built himself up. He is uh stayed with his his image or
his stick, and he's perfected it and and I think he does great.
Uh either way it goes. He's just a little injury prone. Uh you
know. Other than that, you know, I love him. But man,
like I said, the ref stops the match, Samoa Joe will be
facing see him Punk for the second time on AW coming up next week.
So I mean that's going to be our matches Hobbes and uh, oh,
I'm sorry, who was it who will Hobbs to be facing next week?
Uh? Who wasn't? Oh? I feel terrible now, I can't.
I can't even look at him. Uh. So you got Samoa Joe and
see him punking and hobbs and uh oh my oh. Anyway, it doesn't
matter because they're gonna tell us a hundred million times before this match actually comes
up, so we will hear about it. I hear about it and hear
about it. So man, that that does pretty much the show there,
my friend and uh, I think we pulled it off. I was,
I was really. I didn't have to call Rocky and ask him anything,
So we did good there. We didn't bug Rocky and we left Michael alone,
so I think we did okay. What do you think there, my
bud, I think we did all right. I think we covered the show
pretty well. So then the show. Do you have any shout outs for
anybody or anything you want to do before we close it up? Oh man,
I'm too old for shout outs. If I do, my teas might
fall out all My friend, well, I actually want to give a shout
out to Gardner Michael Gross just for getting me into this kind of stuff.
I just wanted to get that out real quick. Also, you guys can
reach me on Twitter at a maintenance mav I've changed my handle of that recently,
so you guys would all be able to uh talk to me. Hey,
message me, let me know how I'm doing. If you guys think
that I can do something better, or maybe that I'm you know, just
screwing up on something, let me know. I want to know so I
can improve. Let me know what the people are thinking, guys. Uh
so yeah, that's all for me. What do you got? Mark?
I like sometimes you might want not want to hear, uh, but it
is. Yeah. Hey, look man, I've enjoyed the show. Uh,
I missed Rocky and uh and a Michael, but day we'll be back
um next week and uh and as I said, if we didn't have to
call Rocky one time, although I think I have to call Rocky after the
show. But anyway, look, it's of course there's the n x T
