00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:05,719
Hello, ladies and gentlemen, and
welcome back to the Gimmick your monthly fix.

2
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:11,000
I am the Canadian Nightmare Trest.
Now I'm joined by on the story

3
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,480
finisher, David. Yeah, we
got lots to talk about. Last time

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,519
we were here, we talked about
restling night too, and man already in

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,120
like a lot changes in wrestling,
but whether it's title changes, whether it's

6
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,640
people change their minds, certain lawsuits, you know, whether it is footage

7
00:00:26,719 --> 00:00:30,320
being shown. There's a lot of
stuff. But so yeah, we're gonna

8
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,200
try our best to cover the past
month. Our kind of breakdown is gonna

9
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:37,280
be talking about backlash just happened yesterday, and we'll talk about aw overall the

10
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:42,960
month of that. Because the whole
Elite storyline, I feel like, I

11
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,600
don't know, you can't you can't
be somewhere in the middle. You either

12
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,280
got to love it or hate it. But we'll break that down and double

13
00:00:48,359 --> 00:00:52,159
or Nothing and dynasty we are going
to because as you hear, I suppose

14
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,759
not here he's gonna be back either
end of Junior or begin in July.

15
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,039
He's got to focus on his study. So it's doing the right thing,

16
00:00:59,079 --> 00:01:02,359
you know, being a good guy. You know, being a responsible adult.

17
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,640
Yeah should so. But yeah,
once those are done, he'll be

18
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,599
back. But he had originally he's
working on now you can follow his Twitter

19
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,480
threat, but he's like, hey, what are you some matches? So

20
00:01:10,799 --> 00:01:14,359
we'd given them some, but we're
gonna reveal our personal top ten favorites and

21
00:01:14,359 --> 00:01:18,200
the criteria for that and then uh
yeah, so we're gonna just get right

22
00:01:18,239 --> 00:01:19,840
down to because we got a lot
off, so we got a month of

23
00:01:19,879 --> 00:01:23,439
cover. So uh, let's break
down maybe the biggest fight of this weekend.

24
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:30,439
Kendrick and Drake. What do you
think the thing that has actually kept

25
00:01:30,439 --> 00:01:36,000
me up more than wrestling this week? I saw at insane times. Oh

26
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,719
I saw your feet, Yeah,
I saw your feet. It's just crazy,

27
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:41,359
the back and forth and like,
oh I'm here and cover there,

28
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,319
So no, no, we won't. We won't get there all ask David

29
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,000
is on the spot and if you
don't have anything to come back to the

30
00:01:47,079 --> 00:01:49,680
end. What is for people that
don't know what's the wrestling feud? You

31
00:01:49,719 --> 00:01:53,719
would compare this too out of all
the annals of history and the WF even

32
00:01:53,799 --> 00:01:59,040
WCWTA, Like, is there a
particular few that go that's the one because

33
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,760
I feel like the obvious people jump
to is like Sean Hbka, But I

34
00:02:01,799 --> 00:02:05,640
feel like most people like, well, Kendrick's kind of pretty far ahead.

35
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,560
Where you never felt like that was
Sean Brett, right, it was always

36
00:02:07,599 --> 00:02:12,800
like they're like neck and neck.
But what's your perspective on that. I'm

37
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,479
going to go a little bit different. I am going to go Hogan Savage

38
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:23,479
for you all you've got the friends
turned to enemies, and you've got the

39
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:29,080
better artistry versus the more popular.
Absolutely yeah that No, I didn't even

40
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,840
think Hogan Savage. That's a good
one. The only thing missing is like

41
00:02:30,879 --> 00:02:36,159
a lady in between them to break
it up. But they're speaking enough about

42
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,120
ladies, so we're not getting to
that because I don't feel like ensued.

43
00:02:38,199 --> 00:02:44,639
But it's it's been an interesting Twitter
weekend between wrestling, that sports playoffs,

44
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:50,080
It's a lot's happening in the entertainment
world. So so yeah, let's get

45
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,120
into the draft here. So our
personal draft. I spose he's been keeping

46
00:02:53,159 --> 00:02:59,000
track, God love him. So
we had lots of happened here and luckily,

47
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:00,599
you know, David, you're still
in third right now, but a

48
00:03:00,599 --> 00:03:05,199
big comeback because there's been some defenses. So you're at sixty six points,

49
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,759
I'm at eighty four points and s
Pubs is at ninety points with at first

50
00:03:08,759 --> 00:03:13,599
place he got plus eighty five.
He had a really good backlash for him

51
00:03:13,599 --> 00:03:17,479
because that that that that little kid
man he got Cody Rhodes and he's gonna

52
00:03:17,479 --> 00:03:21,439
main event like almost every pay per
view this year. That bastard, you

53
00:03:21,479 --> 00:03:24,759
know, like, yeah, I
am lucky with the fact that I have

54
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,199
Damien Priest, so that's gonna get
me some and now to clash, you're

55
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,280
good to. Yeah, well with
Becky and Bianca, that's that's also gonna

56
00:03:34,319 --> 00:03:38,520
help. So just come on going
through winning King of the Ring. Yeah,

57
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:39,599
I will talk about that, of
course. I think you got that

58
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:44,719
luck yeah for me, and I
think you'll overtake me soon because I think

59
00:03:44,759 --> 00:03:46,960
Money of the Bank is the next
time that we can draw up and make

60
00:03:46,039 --> 00:03:51,840
some changes. I lost Rhea and
I lost Seth because Seth had to get

61
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,000
his surgery. So now he's out
a minimum they say six to eight months,

62
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,960
so he's gone. But it's like
for me, it's like I'm not

63
00:03:58,039 --> 00:04:00,719
trying to reveal my strategy, but
it's like, dude, drop them because

64
00:04:00,759 --> 00:04:02,039
I do I want one of you
guys to pick him up come rumble season.

65
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,680
No, like that's a tough thing. But now he's just he's just

66
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:10,360
sitting there doing nothing for me and
Rhea Like what bad time? My This

67
00:04:10,439 --> 00:04:14,560
is like a you talk about NFL
drafts with total drafts my one and two

68
00:04:14,599 --> 00:04:19,160
pick down, like like, thank
goodness they had good manias and Seth was

69
00:04:19,199 --> 00:04:24,399
on two of them. And at
least my silver lining about Rhea, well,

70
00:04:24,439 --> 00:04:26,680
she didn't lose the title, and
we've decided that if you vacate the

71
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,360
title, we don't lose points because
it's not really a choice. So there's

72
00:04:30,399 --> 00:04:32,399
that her injury is not as bad. But still, like what I worry

73
00:04:32,399 --> 00:04:35,120
about Ria is they're like, oh, they're gonna look into it, and

74
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,879
it's just been silent since then,
so I worry it's gonna be like the

75
00:04:38,959 --> 00:04:42,000
MGF thing where they're gonna wait and
be like, oh, maybe she doesn't

76
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,319
need surgery, and then after all
wa like, no, you still need

77
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,079
surgery because MGF he met that was
the room we're in March with Tony Kahn,

78
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,560
and then I was like, no, you're gonna have to have surgery.

79
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:53,079
So we'll see, but yeah,
s Bub's still still winning right now,

80
00:04:53,199 --> 00:04:56,399
so we'll see what happens. But
I'm I'm you know, we got

81
00:04:56,439 --> 00:04:58,839
some good picks. You got Damien
Man, good comeback for you. I

82
00:04:58,879 --> 00:05:01,079
got Jade holding it down for me, you know, and end bond Breaker,

83
00:05:01,079 --> 00:05:04,439
who's just gonna keep destroying jobbers,
I think for a little bit.

84
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:09,040
So we'll catch up too, And
I'm lucky. Anytime you get punts with

85
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,759
Jade, I get punch with Bianca, So oh yeah, it evens out

86
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,879
there, and I think we got
that for a while. Like I'm not

87
00:05:14,879 --> 00:05:16,519
trying a long term book, but
I could see them not break them up

88
00:05:16,519 --> 00:05:19,959
to like the Rumble this year and
then you to me, that's the mania

89
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:25,240
matches Jane and Beyond. I wanted
Bionca and Ria, but just because they've

90
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,759
done the Jade and Beyonca thing now, I feel like that's the way to

91
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,279
go. You keep them together,
you break them up. Maybe they'll do

92
00:05:30,319 --> 00:05:34,040
it at a different pay per view, but we all three of us wanted

93
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,959
the tag team, and I guess
we can start with backlash. We won

94
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,439
that tag team and they're doing it, and I think last night it showed

95
00:05:41,439 --> 00:05:43,720
overall. But before we get the
specific match. What did you think of

96
00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:46,240
the event? They said it was
the largest gate in arena history, which

97
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,639
is crazy because there was only eleven
thousand people there, So those tickets must

98
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:55,720
have been pretty penny there charging because
they've been to many crowds that are bigger

99
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,920
than eleven thousand in arenas, but
they must have been charging a lot.

100
00:05:58,959 --> 00:06:02,160
But the crowd was We got a
preview on SmackDown, but the crowd was

101
00:06:02,319 --> 00:06:08,240
super fired up and it was tons
of fun to see that crowd was on

102
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,600
fire. And I knew coming into
it just based upon how they were on

103
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:17,199
SmackDown that it was gonna be a
good crowd. But that crowd helped take

104
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:23,519
this peee over the top like it
was already good. In my opinion,

105
00:06:23,639 --> 00:06:29,439
it it surpassed my expectations for the
peer wrestling and storyline aspect of it.

106
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,319
There was a moment that just shocked
me that I did not expect it all.

107
00:06:32,519 --> 00:06:35,439
So you know, it gets points
for that, But the crowd helped

108
00:06:35,519 --> 00:06:40,120
just take it over the top.
I mean from the moment Randy Orton comes

109
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,839
out and they're all just going in
on his theme and even he has to

110
00:06:44,879 --> 00:06:47,639
stop and give them props for that. Yeah, That was the biggest thing

111
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,959
I said to you guys at our
discord was it felt like WrestleMania as far

112
00:06:50,959 --> 00:06:54,720
as the entrances, because there's one
moment they just said, Kevin Owens,

113
00:06:54,759 --> 00:06:58,079
he's out there for additional min and
a half just soaking in the crowd,

114
00:06:58,519 --> 00:07:00,079
and they didn't end up doing the
like, oh oh man, every baby

115
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,319
face is gonna have this mega long
entrance because they're just gonna be soaking up

116
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,600
the crowd. But yeah, it's
funny because I saw a lot of that

117
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,759
was a big debate on wrestling Twitter
was the card being like, is this

118
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:16,680
like a lackluster crowd for you know, or a lackluster card for this crowd.

119
00:07:16,759 --> 00:07:20,240
There's so many people, it's only
five matches. I'm still kind of

120
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,079
fine that I do agree you could
have added one. I think the IC

121
00:07:24,279 --> 00:07:28,399
title not being there, especially because
Sammy's a and also from Montreal, has

122
00:07:28,399 --> 00:07:31,240
that, you know, kind of
some tie to being French in France and

123
00:07:31,279 --> 00:07:33,879
all that all. Like they kind
of had the same similar pop as Kevin

124
00:07:33,879 --> 00:07:39,199
Owens. So but ww is they're
following what Triple H would do with NXT

125
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,720
they like for those B shows.
The five card matches NXT was always that

126
00:07:43,879 --> 00:07:46,759
right, and they were around this
that two forty five three hours, So

127
00:07:47,319 --> 00:07:50,240
I don't and to me, I
don't think it was underwhelming. I think

128
00:07:50,279 --> 00:07:54,360
all the matches were good. I
think one over delivered. You got some

129
00:07:54,439 --> 00:07:58,160
surprises, you got some title changes, and again it like we talked about

130
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,759
the WrestleMania cast, which thanks for
everyone, check that out. That was

131
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,639
a top ten episode last month for
us, So thanks to everybody. But

132
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,920
we said like there was a lot
of predictable stuff one night too, but

133
00:08:05,959 --> 00:08:09,800
that's not always bad. So for
me, I saw lots of people complain

134
00:08:09,879 --> 00:08:13,319
what the jays the thing of oh
I should pull the trigger. Between that

135
00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:16,079
and the women's tag, it was
good, but people are like, oh,

136
00:08:16,319 --> 00:08:18,439
triple h h air, it's gonna
be very predictable. But it's like

137
00:08:18,959 --> 00:08:22,399
for me, that's like I don't
need everything to be predictable. But that's

138
00:08:22,399 --> 00:08:24,639
a good thing because it's like storytelling
and making sense, you know. It's

139
00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:26,920
like Vince would go sometimes too far. The other hand, like well we

140
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,440
gotta swerve them. It's like not
always, you know, Yeah, so

141
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:39,039
you don't need sometimes the predictable is
good and it's enjoying the ride to get

142
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:43,039
to the predictable, Like, yeah, I knew coming in there that Damien

143
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,440
was gonna retain. He's a triple
H guy. He just got the belt,

144
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,960
like you gotta make him look strong. Plus it plays into his storyline

145
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,320
with the judgment day, so I
then it's just okay, So how are

146
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:58,559
we going to get here? What's
the question? Yeah? And we talked

147
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,799
back and forth. Is it because
they did the bloodline teas which we'll talk

148
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,759
about everything. How'd you feel about
the as s, Pubsey's watch and the

149
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:11,679
phenomenal chatter phenomenon I singing and wrestling. For me, I'm very mixed on

150
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,879
because I've been there live and I've
been there to the wrestling. You have

151
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,360
post raw shows where sometimes it's fun
and then sometimes you got people just spamming

152
00:09:18,399 --> 00:09:22,159
in. For me, the singing
was fine with aging. I think sometimes

153
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:26,200
it went overboard during the match because
you lose cadence of the crowd in the

154
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,440
match, like AJ and Cody are
doing like the yeah boo spots and then

155
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,919
when they're singing, it's like,
ah, you've you've lost some of that.

156
00:09:31,039 --> 00:09:35,519
So I think I like moments,
but I could do like twenty five

157
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,600
percent less of the Swiss singing,
but the crowd was having a good time

158
00:09:39,639 --> 00:09:43,159
and they should get a mania or
like Tripleach's on the last night, like

159
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,559
a stadium show, because they proved, okay, they could, they could

160
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,039
bring it, and it helps even
the b rate shows that maybe somewhere else

161
00:09:48,039 --> 00:09:52,360
in some crowd in America can This
show would have been all right, but

162
00:09:52,639 --> 00:09:56,559
for France it hasn't had a pay
per view and ever, if at all,

163
00:09:56,879 --> 00:10:01,240
it raised it. So yeah,
no, I the singing didn't bother

164
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,399
me that much. There were times
where I was like, Okay, the

165
00:10:05,799 --> 00:10:09,120
crowd is just being the crowd.
They're taking over, but it was never

166
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,120
I mean, it's not Cizarro with
the beach ball levels of the crowd taken

167
00:10:13,159 --> 00:10:16,759
over. Oh I was in that
crowd and I hated it. I hated

168
00:10:16,799 --> 00:10:20,320
it. I hate what chance.
For the most part, I think there's

169
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,720
the odd time you can do it, but you know, it's just sometimes

170
00:10:22,759 --> 00:10:26,440
again it's all about the amount of
it and stuff. But let's talk about

171
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:33,200
the first match or first surprise you
got the new bloodline sols Co Tamatonga versus

172
00:10:33,399 --> 00:10:35,840
Randy Ron's Kale. We already talked
about the entrances this, they did a

173
00:10:35,879 --> 00:10:39,840
switch up to make it a street
fight, which I thought was the right

174
00:10:39,919 --> 00:10:41,320
call. Not that I didn't want
to see just a pure tag team match,

175
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,960
but felt like the crowd was ready
for something like that, and there

176
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,200
was no other like stip matches on
this card either, so I was like,

177
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,840
okay, that's a I liked the
way it was set up of their

178
00:10:50,879 --> 00:10:52,720
brawling and they just say, hey, they're not going to stop, but

179
00:10:52,879 --> 00:10:56,720
just whatever, no rules, had
to fight, and I thought this was

180
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:01,159
like a really entertaining opening. To
me, It's like like three and a

181
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,960
quarter, three and seven five,
just because it's it's not gonna be anything

182
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,440
amazing, but you get what you
want. And then we got a surprise,

183
00:11:07,639 --> 00:11:11,919
but not the one we were expecting. But overall I thought it was

184
00:11:11,399 --> 00:11:15,799
a good match and a good like
outing for the New bloodline, but also

185
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,759
a tonga because this was his coming
out party, right and I think he

186
00:11:18,399 --> 00:11:22,879
I think he showed he can hang
with these guys, and I think I

187
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,879
really like the edge of the character
they're giving him. It similar to New

188
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:30,159
Japan, but a bit more of
like an unpredictable sort of lackey hit man

189
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,519
in a way where you don't he
could pop off at any more we're solo.

190
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,240
He was always like, well you
knew Roman had to give him the

191
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:39,919
go ahead, right, Rome would
do that where Tama looks like he could

192
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,000
just he's that guy in the heist
and the Dane Cook joke that pulls up

193
00:11:43,039 --> 00:11:46,000
the gun and just starts killing random
civilians. Like that's Tomatonga and that look

194
00:11:46,039 --> 00:11:50,080
he's giving. So I think it
was a good showing overall for them.

195
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,360
They they put on what was in
my opinion, necessary for thomas first match.

196
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,440
Because Tom has been in New Japan
this entire time, he hasn't had

197
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:03,600
a televised WW. Everyone talks about
how the style is very much different in

198
00:12:03,759 --> 00:12:09,919
WW, so just letting him have
this match where it's a little bit of

199
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,360
in ring work but mostly it's in
the crowd. You guys are just going.

200
00:12:13,799 --> 00:12:16,840
I mean, he's been a heel
for the majority of his career.

201
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,480
It's only in his ladder run after
hit the breakoff from the Bullet Club that

202
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,279
he started to have a little bit
of a face run in New Japan,

203
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,840
But he was a heel for most
of his career, so this is perfect

204
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:31,440
for him to just be that brawler, be that over the top wrestler that

205
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:37,399
he can be and give him some
moments in that WWE space without going here's

206
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:43,039
a ring, here's a high end
storyline. Show us what you can do.

207
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,480
Yeah, I think he's showing that
right now. He didn't. He

208
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,200
didn't flounder, you know, So
what do you think as everyone was expecting,

209
00:12:48,279 --> 00:12:52,840
you know, after WRESTLEMANI we'red oh
fa tu sign it's within weeks and

210
00:12:52,919 --> 00:12:56,080
it's like all they might hold off, But we didn't get got faugh too.

211
00:12:56,159 --> 00:13:01,399
We got uh Tonga Lowell. Their
names the together are always like always

212
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:05,519
a mouth twister, but we got
Loa. Who I had when you put

213
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:11,519
the discord I completely forgot was Camacho
and w W that. I completely erased

214
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,879
that out of my mind. But
this is like what we talked about where

215
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,440
I had a theory because obviously Meltz's
been memed on a lot lately of getting

216
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,080
things wrong. He's always gone stuff
wrong, but he can be reliable.

217
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:26,120
But the fact that lately they've been
doing a better job of surprises, I

218
00:13:26,159 --> 00:13:31,639
do think there has been some on
purpose putting stuff out there to see who

219
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:35,200
is a mole and then who they
can trust. Because Eventually, Meltzer did

220
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,279
share that he was signed the same
time as Toma. That should have came

221
00:13:39,279 --> 00:13:43,519
out the fact that nobody caught that
him fight ful p W. I like

222
00:13:43,639 --> 00:13:46,720
nobody else got oh yeah, you
know, like he's he's signed. They're

223
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,799
gonna do good or you know whatever
good whatever their version's gonna be. The

224
00:13:50,879 --> 00:13:56,600
fact, like a good genuine surprise. I think he's good for this storyline.

225
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,519
I think that's about his breaches being
a tag guy and this he has

226
00:14:00,639 --> 00:14:03,200
knee injuries and of course there's some
stuff on on. He's like he you

227
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,360
know, he's not always the Christmas
in the ring. He has some certain

228
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,679
moves. I go, I don't
know, But for this, I think

229
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,080
he's another good kind of heater to
add and and again even joking he watched

230
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:18,879
his debut when you see the crowd, he got the refs leg But I

231
00:14:18,919 --> 00:14:22,080
think for this and we're gonna get
ooso's them lots of good potential and uh

232
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:26,200
it was again always fun when they
can keep a genuine surprise. Yeah,

233
00:14:26,279 --> 00:14:31,919
it was shocking to me. I
did not expect and it's one of and

234
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:37,320
I even tweeted this. It's been
a long time since WW has genuinely surprised

235
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,240
me. There's been moments of could
they, couldn't they, or there's the

236
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,759
slightest chance, but we don't think
that can happen. Then it happens and

237
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:48,200
you're plus pleasantly surprised. Like with
Punk Coming Back, it was, hey,

238
00:14:48,039 --> 00:14:50,879
we never know, Punk could show
up at any time just to be

239
00:14:52,039 --> 00:14:54,240
Punk, and but and when it
happens, you're still like, oh my

240
00:14:54,279 --> 00:14:58,399
god, they're actually doing it.
But with this one it was I did

241
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:03,279
not expect it, but I act
sally think it's the right call because with

242
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,879
Fa to you, you can bring
him in and you can say, hey,

243
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:13,559
he's part of the bloodline, he
is part of this dynasty. But

244
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:18,480
with Tongaloa, you can say that
is Toma's brother, that is his tie,

245
00:15:18,559 --> 00:15:22,840
not ess ah, he's also part
of the Simoon dynasty. But no,

246
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,799
this is his brother, so that's
why he's bringing him in, Especially

247
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:35,360
since Solo's currently having issues with his
brothers. To bring in another one would

248
00:15:35,399 --> 00:15:39,000
be like, are you gonna turn
on this one? Is this one gonna

249
00:15:39,039 --> 00:15:41,840
turn on you? This time?
Bringing in Thoma's brother, it's like,

250
00:15:41,879 --> 00:15:46,679
Okay, I'm fortifying my new blood
line with people that I know I can

251
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,519
trust and how so where do you
think this is all GOODNA factoring? Because

252
00:15:50,519 --> 00:15:54,440
we talked about we never did the
raw after Mania, we had the Raw

253
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,799
company, we haven't seen Romans since
then. We got Paul saying he hasn't

254
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:02,440
talked to Roman since WrestleMania, which
is interesting. Rock did this whole Hey,

255
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:03,440
I'm gonna be a go away for
a while and then I'm gonna come

256
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,759
back to get you. You know, he's talking with Cody. I like

257
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,320
the segment. I know that segment
was mixed. Some people thought went on

258
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,639
too long, was awkward. To
me, it was like that was the

259
00:16:11,679 --> 00:16:14,600
point. It was like a It
was like to me two gun slingers that

260
00:16:14,799 --> 00:16:17,320
want to both pull their gun,
but they're not gonna pull their guns,

261
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,679
so they're gonna wait. And even
the Rock being weird like well so we've

262
00:16:19,679 --> 00:16:22,000
heard a lot of reports Rock being
weird lately, but in the promo,

263
00:16:22,519 --> 00:16:26,279
like I liked him being kind of
uncomfortable, like let me hold it.

264
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,799
But the thing is we were tumblout
this last night where no Rock. It

265
00:16:29,799 --> 00:16:33,279
all makes sense because you got solo, you know, the gorillas, and

266
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,080
then fought two that's four and on
the bloodline. You can do Roman Usos

267
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,799
and you could bring Sammy back in
right to do that's our bloodline. My

268
00:16:40,919 --> 00:16:42,919
whole thing is the second the Rock
gets back, that's where it makes it

269
00:16:44,919 --> 00:16:48,360
not a problem because I think that
just gives them more opportunity. But then

270
00:16:48,399 --> 00:16:52,120
it's like a five on four situation. I'm not sure do you get in

271
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,720
a situation. I'm not saying we're
getting the Virus series or even a tag

272
00:16:55,759 --> 00:16:59,679
match, but is that a situation
where you get the moment where like a

273
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:03,079
co and Roman have to work together
to go against the Rock. Because that's

274
00:17:03,119 --> 00:17:07,839
the thing the row, because I
think the Rock will come back and they're

275
00:17:07,839 --> 00:17:11,880
gonna reveal that Soul has been kind
of doing this under the rocks purview right

276
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,599
there. That's why they're on purpose
trying to make it seem like is it

277
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,759
Roman, is it not? Rome's
gonna come back reveal it's not him,

278
00:17:17,759 --> 00:17:18,839
and then it'll be the bigger reveal
of no, it's not him, it's

279
00:17:18,839 --> 00:17:23,680
someone else, because I just don't
see them making Solo the guy right now,

280
00:17:23,759 --> 00:17:27,160
Like it'd be very odd to have
the Rock wan to be the guy,

281
00:17:27,319 --> 00:17:30,599
Rome wan be the guy and all
of a sudden Solo also being like,

282
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,359
well, I want to be the
guy too. I just feel like

283
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:36,319
it would be it would stand out. Solo would sink in that equation like

284
00:17:36,599 --> 00:17:40,119
against Roman and Rock. So he's
a better B player. So in your

285
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,079
mind, like, what is the
kind of I know, we know the

286
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:45,200
end goal is probably like a you
know, Rock Cody than the Rock Woman,

287
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,839
but just the actual bloodline civil war, what do you do when you

288
00:17:48,839 --> 00:17:52,160
get a Rock back or is it
just that they just kind of ignore that

289
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,559
and they just do like the the
Solo's bloodline in Roman, What do you

290
00:17:55,599 --> 00:17:57,039
see right now? Because there's lots
of stuff flown around, and I don't

291
00:17:57,039 --> 00:18:00,720
think, uh, like low was
in our plans right now, right we

292
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,319
didn't really function for that because like
oh fat in the Rock that's four that

293
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,640
makes perfect sense. But now it's
there's more members than we even thought were

294
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:12,880
coming. So I think that it
all really depends on the Rock. But

295
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:18,880
I could see short term being Solo
stacks his blood line. I can see

296
00:18:19,519 --> 00:18:26,440
Gorilla's destiny going and getting the tag
titles. I can see them making themselves

297
00:18:26,519 --> 00:18:30,759
strong. If the Rock is going
to come back, then I see it

298
00:18:30,759 --> 00:18:37,559
as a situation where the rest of
the bloodline folds back in on itself.

299
00:18:37,559 --> 00:18:40,920
They will start off against each other, then they will come together under the

300
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,920
purview of The Rock and he will
truly be the final Boss. And then

301
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:49,200
you're going to have them versus Cody, And that's where you in the Rock

302
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:53,400
at that, you in the final
Boss moment at that If the Rock's not

303
00:18:53,519 --> 00:18:57,640
coming back and they can't strike a
deal in that, then it will be

304
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:04,960
roman blood line versus Solo's blood line. Yeah, and eventually, yes,

305
00:19:06,039 --> 00:19:10,599
someone's going to have to be quote
unquote head of the table match. Yeah,

306
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,680
which is like, it's just so
funny. If that's the like,

307
00:19:12,759 --> 00:19:15,079
I agree with you, that would
be the route. But if the head

308
00:19:15,079 --> 00:19:18,559
of the table match is Roman and
Solo, man, that is such a

309
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,319
I like Solo and we've seen some
potential at him, so I'm not saying

310
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:27,079
they couldn't bring it there, but
it's just when you look at that versus

311
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,519
the Rock, it's such like a
like a lesser then, So I'd be

312
00:19:30,559 --> 00:19:33,720
interested to see because that's a that's
the big thing. It is the Rock,

313
00:19:33,799 --> 00:19:37,240
right because even with MANI, it's
like when the Rock gets back and

314
00:19:37,279 --> 00:19:40,799
that's the report that oh he wants
to do Cody, Like we do live

315
00:19:40,839 --> 00:19:44,240
in a world now where it's funny
enough we might not get Rock and Roman.

316
00:19:44,279 --> 00:19:45,920
Ever, you know, like it's
a possibility because what if Rock does

317
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,079
Cody and that's it or Rock gets
big time injured and he does go Okay,

318
00:19:49,079 --> 00:19:52,319
we're not gonna happen. You know, everyone has a scenario of like,

319
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,720
oh, we're gonna get Rock at
Summer Slammer Survivors hears do Cody and

320
00:19:55,759 --> 00:19:57,559
the Roman Mania. It's like,
I don't think so. I think Rock

321
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:02,440
is a WrestleMania season and he's done
it before. But I just feel like

322
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,960
he's a busy guy. So in
a perfect world, that's the way we

323
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,400
go. Like I've seen the cards
and I do agree like Seth Punk,

324
00:20:08,799 --> 00:20:11,920
Rock, Roman, Cody, Randy
like that is that to me? Is

325
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:17,799
like, oh that's throughout you go. It is interesting to me to see

326
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:22,440
if Rock doesn't for let's say that's
the card, what do you have main

327
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,079
event night one to night two?
Between those? Don't forget about the women

328
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:27,039
right now, because we don't know
what they would do. What would you

329
00:20:27,039 --> 00:20:30,480
have main event Night one, night
two? Because either way, somebody's not

330
00:20:30,519 --> 00:20:36,319
happy. You have three equation you, because then if Cody doesn't ma an

331
00:20:36,319 --> 00:20:38,039
event in his first year's champ,
that's a bad message. You're like,

332
00:20:38,079 --> 00:20:41,839
well you're not last. If Punk
doesn't main an event, then Punk probably

333
00:20:41,839 --> 00:20:45,640
never gets that main event, and
you know, the Rock's not gonna not

334
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,079
main event. Even though I never
understand that because him and Hogan were at

335
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,079
the main event, it was still
the biggest deal that night, right,

336
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:56,119
So it's like that's a very tricky
situation with those six men. Randy doesn't

337
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,400
care. Randy will do whatever.
He's a he's a game player. So

338
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,400
for for the long term stary selling, I think you have to have Punk

339
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:10,000
main event night one. You have
Cody main event night two, and with

340
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:18,400
Punk winning whatever match he has,
then you set up kind of a a

341
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:23,960
stare down between the two, like
I'm here, I'm the guy versus I'm

342
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,759
the guy. And then it becomes
a even though we're on separate brands,

343
00:21:29,039 --> 00:21:34,559
it's a rivalry of who's the guy
without ever having to truly cross paths.

344
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,720
So you leave them both not like, oh, well you were Night one,

345
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:44,119
I'm Night two. It's I'm showing
you I'm the guy. Now watch

346
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,359
what I do versus what you've been
doing, so you would put if it

347
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,119
was those three matches, you would
put Rock and Roll and not main events,

348
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,599
just like a in the middle of
the card and fired Up. I

349
00:21:53,079 --> 00:21:56,920
like I would personally because I agree
that for the most time, I think

350
00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:00,920
there's like the odd retirement match.
I know some might say they head of

351
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,839
the Table could be like the Streak
equivalent. I think the Streak had that.

352
00:22:03,519 --> 00:22:07,000
I always am put the titles last
because you put that in portance.

353
00:22:07,599 --> 00:22:11,920
In my opinion, I think I
really don't know. I think if anyone

354
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,640
would get the boot, it would
be punkin SETH if I had to guess,

355
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,240
because I think with you know,
Punk's being a company guy. But

356
00:22:18,319 --> 00:22:22,039
the end of the day, are
they gonna put Punk's needs over Rock and

357
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,160
Roman. I don't know if they
will. Hopefully just Rock and Rome would

358
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,359
be game to be like we don't
got to be the main event. Let's

359
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:30,559
just steal the show. Like that
should be the mentality of we can be

360
00:22:30,599 --> 00:22:33,720
like Rock and Hogan, where it
doesn't matter if we're like the fourth match

361
00:22:33,799 --> 00:22:37,680
up, everyone's gonna talk about us. You know, yeah, we'll see,

362
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,519
let's see. RJ says I'd like
to see both matches honestly, but

363
00:22:41,519 --> 00:22:45,440
I feel the money match is coding
Rock, which I agree personally. Now,

364
00:22:45,519 --> 00:22:47,279
like Dave, Let's say a triple
h comes to you and say,

365
00:22:47,279 --> 00:22:49,079
hey, Rocks as he wants one
more matching and only do one. Which

366
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,599
route do you go? Do you
do Cody or do you Roman? I

367
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,680
do Roman? You do were Okay, you're on the other side of it.

368
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:04,640
I do Roman because for me,
that is a more You've got your

369
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:11,640
long term with that for true Yeah, Big Cody, It's okay, we

370
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:12,880
did the match. We've been talking
about the match. We did the match.

371
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,599
But where does either man go after
that? Rock goes off into the

372
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,279
sunset. Cody gets to say for
two weeks about how he beat the Rock,

373
00:23:21,319 --> 00:23:26,799
and then he's on to the next
where he'll say more than two weeks.

374
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:32,319
Where with Roman it is the true
I am the head of the table.

375
00:23:32,559 --> 00:23:36,200
I am the new final Boss.
And then you can set if Roman

376
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:37,960
wants to keep his part time schedule, you can set him up kind of

377
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,319
like you did a Brock where he
is the new final boss, where he

378
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,039
comes in, he does this thing, then he leaves. He's just there

379
00:23:45,079 --> 00:23:48,640
to yeah, be strong, But
then he can argue if he is just

380
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,200
part time that's the same thing as
Brock, then do we want to have

381
00:23:52,279 --> 00:23:55,640
him break the streak the part time
guy? Cody's the full time guy.

382
00:23:55,799 --> 00:23:59,880
You know, I see your point. I'm like fifty to fifty. Honestly,

383
00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:03,920
I think any route's fine. I
think it's tough with Cody now being

384
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,000
out there, like, yeah,
I think it's gonna happen. I think

385
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,279
he should have maybe like reeled back
on that a little bit, because then

386
00:24:08,279 --> 00:24:11,119
if it doesn't happen, you kind
of look like you're the second options.

387
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:15,680
That's the shit, Like, like
I wish you would just meant gone more

388
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,440
the route of like, oh,
whoever earns the title shot? Like,

389
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,119
but I get it. I can
see Cody wanting the politic for that,

390
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:22,799
right because why wouldn't you want to
versus the rock in the mane of then

391
00:24:22,839 --> 00:24:26,559
WrestleMania, Like that'd be a huge
form, right, There's there's tons of

392
00:24:26,599 --> 00:24:30,079
history they can do there. They
did that whole he gave him the gift

393
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,359
back and we don't know what the
gift is still, you know, So

394
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,240
there, I think they are gonna
go that route. I just hope we

395
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,960
live in a perfect world where we
get both matches no matter what. And

396
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,000
the last point because we'll talk about
because they weren't on this card. And

397
00:24:42,039 --> 00:24:45,000
then when the next match, I
just says, it feels like Punk and

398
00:24:45,039 --> 00:24:48,440
Drew became the match for once see
versus punkin Seth My still long time,

399
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,960
my long term booking is what's gonna
happen RJ in My opinion is you're gonna

400
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,799
get Drew. Clash is gonna happen. Drew will get the title there,

401
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,599
he's gonna hold it to Rumble.
At Rumble, they're gonna do. I

402
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,519
know people say hell in the Cell. I know, but I just maybe

403
00:25:03,559 --> 00:25:04,319
they do hell in the Cell and
Drew gets to win there. I just

404
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:10,400
think at Rumble you get Drew and
Punk Punk wins. That way he can

405
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,880
have like only a mini title run
so he's injury prone. Just have him

406
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,920
do promos, have him wrestle just
small tags on the house shows. Don't

407
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,119
put this man in fucking last man
standings against Jacob Futt like half him,

408
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,960
just like use his mouth. And
then I think Seth, because we're kind

409
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:30,440
of thinking Seth's gonna be probably coming
back at Rome with a surprise. Seth

410
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,880
wins the Rumble that's how you get
there. So that's how I think,

411
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:34,839
or I do think. I agree
with people there's enough heat to do a

412
00:25:34,839 --> 00:25:38,400
triple threat match with those three two. I'm completely down. That'd be a

413
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:42,920
fun way too do the rumble where
imagine Punk is at the end and Seth

414
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,599
comes back and they have to like
a double winner. I'd be down with

415
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:51,480
that too. I think any equation
of Seth Drew Punk is money, you

416
00:25:51,519 --> 00:25:55,440
know, and I just hope I
hope Seth comes back like a little more

417
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,319
less joke or Seth he can keep
some elements, but like, now's the

418
00:25:59,319 --> 00:26:02,519
time to like WrestleMania. I think
everybody's like, man, he really put

419
00:26:02,559 --> 00:26:04,279
in the work. I agree he
was the MVP, especially once we learned

420
00:26:04,279 --> 00:26:07,599
about his leg. It's like,
man, he put in a huge shift

421
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,240
those two nights. He should be
like the Shield of the w W doesn't

422
00:26:11,279 --> 00:26:15,559
need to be the joker set anymore. He's past that. He doesn't need

423
00:26:15,599 --> 00:26:21,160
that. Keep the song. Sure, but so we will see about all

424
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:25,359
that. Okay, Next up was
let me get it Here was we got

425
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,160
Bailey, Iaomi, Tiffany Stratton.
All I can say is they put in

426
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,400
the work there, They had the
time and they just went for it and

427
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:37,519
Stratton. I'm not gonna make this
exact comparison, but she reminds me of

428
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,920
MGF in the way that MGF when
he was like twenty four whatever and was

429
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,079
like, Man, this guy's already
this good at this age. What's it

430
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,079
gonna be in ten years? Same
as Stratton. She's been in this business

431
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:51,599
for two years and already on the
mic, already athletically. She like everyone

432
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,200
was good in that match, but
she was the MVP. She stood out

433
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,640
the most of that match. She's
always getting over, so I'm very excited

434
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,279
just to see what they do with
her in next year. This week,

435
00:27:00,319 --> 00:27:03,400
her like shirt was number one selling. But I thought this was a really

436
00:27:03,559 --> 00:27:07,079
entertaining match. I would have liked
it to go on a little bit longer,

437
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:11,960
but for the time they had,
I thought they really delivered. And

438
00:27:11,039 --> 00:27:15,400
you know, Bailey and Naomi always
great. I'm interesting which route they go

439
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,960
if they just go to a Bailey
Tiffany one on one, but I don't

440
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,480
think they should, because I think
Tiffany should be one on one when she's

441
00:27:22,519 --> 00:27:25,079
planning to win the title, because
I feel like maybe maybe she could be

442
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,599
Queen of the Ring because she got
have some fun with that. I don't

443
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,880
know, but really good triple threat. I really enjoyed it. What about

444
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,640
you, dude, I thought that
match over delivered for what she assumed it

445
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:40,759
was gonna be. They went out
and they put in work, especially Tiffany

446
00:27:40,799 --> 00:27:47,000
Stratton. She like I knew she
was good, but she was amazingly good

447
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:51,960
and her uh prettiest moon salt and
then when she missed it, but she

448
00:27:52,039 --> 00:27:53,599
landed on her feet and then still
ran up one of them. I'm like,

449
00:27:53,839 --> 00:28:00,559
the girl is showing her skill like
the entire match, which is great.

450
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,279
I didn't, like I told you
before, I felt like the ending

451
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:07,079
felt a little bit all right,
we gotta wrap this up, guys,

452
00:28:07,279 --> 00:28:11,839
go home. I would have liked
at least another two minutes, not too

453
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,160
much longer, but if you had
just given them another two minutes of one

454
00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:22,559
on one before the ending. I
do think that because of the reverse roll

455
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,680
up ending that does that did help
play into the whole. Hey we're friends.

456
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:30,160
I just I bested you rather than
the whole. I had to hit

457
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,079
you with three finishers to put you
down. But I do just feel like

458
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,519
there could have been one or two
more minutes of one on one to finish

459
00:28:37,559 --> 00:28:41,519
that out and maybe even have some
good back and forth and still end on

460
00:28:41,839 --> 00:28:45,640
the reverse roll up. I just
don't feel like at the end they had

461
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,319
enough one on one. That's fair. Yeah, And I can completely agree

462
00:28:48,319 --> 00:28:52,680
with that assessment because I like the
reverse roll up because how many times do

463
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:56,079
we see wrestlers do the exchanges and
it's just like the quick one too quick

464
00:28:56,079 --> 00:28:57,279
one two, quick one two in
the crowd collapse, right, like yeah,

465
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,759
good joke. Like I like when
you get the quick win, and

466
00:29:00,839 --> 00:29:03,160
especially with here, it's like Naomi
wish She's like, oh, you got

467
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:04,400
me, like and that's all it
is. It's just like in any sports

468
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:07,559
games like I can't you. And
that's the good way. It helps Naomi's

469
00:29:07,559 --> 00:29:11,000
credibility too, because it's like you
got me, but it's like in a

470
00:29:11,039 --> 00:29:14,200
sneak win situation, it's not like
you plowed me and just like, yeah,

471
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:18,200
I destroyed Naomi. Because Naomi's booking
has been very fifty to fifty,

472
00:29:18,319 --> 00:29:22,119
she's been back sometimes she's protected,
and then there's times where like Tiffany beat

473
00:29:22,119 --> 00:29:23,920
her in two minutes in a match, like, hey, what's going on

474
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:29,039
here? So I think now they're
getting a better situation. Okay, Naomi's

475
00:29:29,039 --> 00:29:32,519
still very over the crowd. Don't
treat her as just like not to sound

476
00:29:32,519 --> 00:29:34,559
offensive. Don't treat her like Natalia, who's just there to put people over.

477
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:40,000
Right, there's still star power in
Naomi. I do agree Undertaker said

478
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:41,720
it. We said on the Resume
show. I do think it were getting

479
00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,799
closer and closer. We need a
woman's icy belt. I like it if

480
00:29:45,799 --> 00:29:48,640
it was like the tag where they
went both shows, because there's tons of

481
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:52,160
talented women that now if they're not
in the tag or the main it's like,

482
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:53,920
oh, what do you do.
I'm fine if you do storylines for

483
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,720
them. But I think there's so
many talented women now you can have an

484
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,960
icy title for them or whatever they
want to call. And like Naomi,

485
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,079
she'd be like a perfect first champion
for that, like to like to be

486
00:30:03,119 --> 00:30:07,920
the inaugural one. So yeah.
Tiffany, though she's a she's making sure

487
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,319
that people are second guessing like oh, did we bring up too soon?

488
00:30:11,519 --> 00:30:15,359
No, she's making sure that's not
a case. So yeah. And for

489
00:30:15,799 --> 00:30:22,640
the history of the Icy Belt being
the quote unquote workhorse belt, then yes,

490
00:30:22,839 --> 00:30:27,920
please give it to Natalia. Let
her have a genuine run with it

491
00:30:30,359 --> 00:30:36,920
in a love letter slash apology for
the whole farting gimmick from what ten years

492
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:42,359
ago or so being manager for like
two years. Yeah, just give it

493
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:48,240
to Italia and then let her start. Let her do a seth where,

494
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:53,359
hey, this isn't a secondary title, this is a meaningful title. She

495
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,799
can show that through her pere wrestling
ability. Let her drop down in n

496
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:02,720
XT sometimes and defend it. Let
her bounce around other places independent brands.

497
00:31:02,839 --> 00:31:04,079
That'd be good because they have done
that with the women's title, like Open

498
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,359
Challenges, and you could do that
right. That's how That's how John seen

499
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:11,480
to put that US title back on
them. Anyone that does Open Challenges is

500
00:31:11,559 --> 00:31:17,680
copying who was writer Senior? His
idea that twenty fifteen US title run of

501
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,319
Sena. That's the formula. That's
what Cody did with the T and T

502
00:31:21,319 --> 00:31:25,200
title. That's the I'm gonna work
every week and Dobie or like lower people

503
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:29,599
on the roster and give them a
spotlight. So I agree, and one

504
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,680
hundred cent of same with this.
Before people were talking about Tiffany being credo,

505
00:31:33,839 --> 00:31:36,839
yeah not gable. Yeah, she
to me is very much a female

506
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:41,680
version of Angle on Brock where they
just picked up so fast. It's it's

507
00:31:41,319 --> 00:31:45,759
and I think Angle's probably the better
comparison because Angle is a great character.

508
00:31:45,799 --> 00:31:49,640
We're Brock. He's always been like
a he became like a good character,

509
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,400
but without Paul he would have been
floundering. Like Paul helped him a lot,

510
00:31:53,559 --> 00:32:02,039
you know. So definitely I think
with Angle that peer just I'm taking

511
00:32:02,079 --> 00:32:07,039
to this. I'm showing you my
skill. I'm just a good athlete,

512
00:32:07,119 --> 00:32:09,279
and that is what Stratton has shown. And she's like, I'm just a

513
00:32:09,319 --> 00:32:14,960
good athlete. Now all I need
to do is learn the nuances of wrestling.

514
00:32:15,039 --> 00:32:19,359
But the athleticism I've got that.
Yeah, and we thought Rowsey was

515
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,119
gonna be that in her first few
ounds, and then she didn't really end

516
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,000
up being that. You know,
there's some difficulty there, logan Paul,

517
00:32:25,119 --> 00:32:29,519
the jury's out because it feels like
not the wrestling community, but like the

518
00:32:29,559 --> 00:32:31,680
real wrestlers are very fifty on them
or something. Oh he picks it up,

519
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,359
but then other wrestlers are like,
yeah, he's training for a month

520
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,279
for each match. It's like,
yeah, I can see why some wrestlers

521
00:32:37,319 --> 00:32:40,799
like don't want to give him the
credit yet because it's like and then it's

522
00:32:40,839 --> 00:32:44,480
weird too with Paul because I felt
like last year he said he was gonna

523
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,599
be around more and it still just
feels like the regular. He still feels

524
00:32:46,599 --> 00:32:50,519
like he's a part timer, and
that's fine with me, But I felt

525
00:32:50,519 --> 00:32:52,119
like, there's Tremmick. Yeah,
he's gonna be signing a new contract with

526
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:57,319
more dates, but his more dates
are just him like appearing and doing promos.

527
00:32:57,359 --> 00:33:00,799
So yeah, you're you're once a
month's showing or you sending in a

528
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:06,279
video from your iPhone from pulside at
your home. Like to me that that's

529
00:33:06,359 --> 00:33:12,640
not showing up being there in matches, that's showing up. And yes,

530
00:33:13,039 --> 00:33:15,440
he is training a month for his
matches, but he is putting on some

531
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:20,480
damn good matches and long matches at
that. He's not training a month to

532
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,279
go out there and do five minutes
and he's not doing the Goldberg where I

533
00:33:23,359 --> 00:33:27,960
come out, I hit you know, a couple of moves and my match

534
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,519
is over in three minutes or less. He's actually putting on good stuff.

535
00:33:30,519 --> 00:33:35,440
So for the fact that he's taking
all this, remembering all this and applying

536
00:33:35,519 --> 00:33:37,319
it, kudos to him for that. But yeah, I would like to

537
00:33:37,359 --> 00:33:43,440
see him in more matches before I
can say that he is just a natural.

538
00:33:43,559 --> 00:33:45,440
He has a natural showman for sure. The showman. Yeah, he

539
00:33:45,519 --> 00:33:50,279
is definitely a natural showman. But
as far as the wrestling aspect of it,

540
00:33:50,759 --> 00:33:53,400
we'll see. I think he does
have potential though, to be one

541
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:59,480
of those people just like Bad Bunny
had that just he you could tell he

542
00:33:59,519 --> 00:34:04,119
loved it, he wanted to do
it, and he dedicated himself to doing

543
00:34:04,119 --> 00:34:07,000
it. And as much as like
like, I'm not the biggest Rowsy fan,

544
00:34:07,079 --> 00:34:08,239
but then the counter at the same
time, if you did that with

545
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:12,519
Rowsy, she probably could have bangers
every time, right, but she decided

546
00:34:12,559 --> 00:34:15,639
to go full time and throwing in
the wolves and stuff. So it's the

547
00:34:15,639 --> 00:34:17,719
same thing. What would happen if
Logan Paul had to do house shows for

548
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,320
six months? You know, would
he sink or swim? And that's but

549
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,760
that's the difference for Tiffany, obviously
she's not a big star but has picked

550
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:28,000
it up big time, so it's
yeah, it's it's gonna be interesting to

551
00:34:28,039 --> 00:34:30,400
see what they do with her career. That's why with WrestleMania card with the

552
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:34,800
women, I'm all over because I
was so convinced he was gonna be read

553
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,960
in Bianca. But I feel like
with injuries and new debuts, there's so

554
00:34:37,079 --> 00:34:40,079
much happen with Charlotte. When does
she get back? It's like I can't

555
00:34:40,079 --> 00:34:45,079
really predict that now because there's so
much kind of evolving. So we'll see.

556
00:34:45,599 --> 00:34:49,400
Next up was Damon Priest jus So, David, I'm gonna let you

557
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,599
take it first to the match and
then also just try and tell me,

558
00:34:52,159 --> 00:34:55,320
like, what do we do with
Damian Priest here? Why are we trying

559
00:34:55,320 --> 00:35:00,280
to do a babyface I have one
theory, but like the guy one is

560
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,719
a heel. Judgment Day is a
heel in a world where we have so

561
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:07,519
many huge baby faces and w I
just feel like they will throw an anchor

562
00:35:07,559 --> 00:35:10,840
on this man by making him be
a baby face in the sea of Kody

563
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:15,559
Rose, jay Uzo, ceem Punk, all the women as well. Like

564
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:20,199
we talked on the discord Randy Or
and Kler's like he was like number eleven

565
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,800
out of who would be like your
top baby faces. But what do you

566
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:29,079
think he defends? He retains some
judgment. Dave shenanigans jay Uso over as

567
00:35:29,079 --> 00:35:31,679
ever that crowd America do the same
thing. Now, when you do the

568
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:37,440
Jay Usso thing, have your phones
out, because that was that was yeah,

569
00:35:37,079 --> 00:35:43,679
especially while they're doing the AK camera
on their entrances to then have that

570
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:47,440
crowd shot, that is amazing.
But when it comes to this whole Damien

571
00:35:47,519 --> 00:35:52,480
thing, I don't know what they're
doing, and I'm very concerned, not

572
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:57,880
just because I have him in my
draft, but I like Damian Priest.

573
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,840
I like Damien pre since he was
Punishment Martinez back and ring Alama like I've

574
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:06,599
always liked Damien prison. I think
he can do so much, but I

575
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,920
don't see him as a babyface right
now. I think you need to keep

576
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:17,719
him as a He'll champion. My
thought is that they are trying, they

577
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:23,760
know, going into Clash the Castle
that you know they want to send in

578
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:30,920
a heel versus face. But it
doesn't make sense because just like and this

579
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:36,719
is going real old school. Jerry
Lawler was a heel except in Memphis.

580
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:42,079
Yes, anytime he wrestled in Memphis, he wrestled as a face because Memphis

581
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,960
loved Jerry Lawler or hard in the
late nineties, right, Remember, he

582
00:36:45,039 --> 00:36:47,599
was heal everywhere, not everywhere,
but he was heel in America. But

583
00:36:47,639 --> 00:36:52,920
in Canada, Uber Hull Cogan babyface, you know exactly. So it's one

584
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:57,519
of those things if you know Drew's
gonna go in there as the baby face,

585
00:36:57,559 --> 00:37:00,639
regardless of what his character is right
now, He's going in as a

586
00:37:00,679 --> 00:37:05,519
face that so just leave Damian his
heel. So why do you try to

587
00:37:05,639 --> 00:37:08,360
have fire Damon as a baby face
and just gonna look like an idiot?

588
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:12,239
Be a baby face, is gonna
get boot out of the building a clash

589
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,119
like yeah, so let him be
a heel because you know he's gonna get

590
00:37:15,119 --> 00:37:22,280
boot and then that gives you opportunity
to let him do all of the Dashaly

591
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,000
stuff. Let Judgment Day do what
they have to do. And then if

592
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:30,480
he does lose at Clash of the
Castle, which for the sake of WW

593
00:37:30,639 --> 00:37:32,679
getting out of there with their lives
and not doing this two years in a

594
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:39,679
row, if he does lose that
clash to the Castle, and it's because

595
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:44,039
of Judgment Dan, it's because of
all the hill antics, that makes sense

596
00:37:44,079 --> 00:37:46,559
for their storyline, and you can
continue to build off of that and then

597
00:37:46,599 --> 00:37:51,199
you can let Drew go and do
whatever Drew's got next. But there's no

598
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,639
reason to turn him face right now, it just it doesn't make sense.

599
00:37:54,679 --> 00:38:00,559
If there was anyone in Judgment Day
that you're going to turn face, let

600
00:38:00,599 --> 00:38:07,880
it be Thinn because he can technically
do both. But there's no reason for

601
00:38:08,039 --> 00:38:10,760
Damien. I mean, now,
for the match itself, it was a

602
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:20,239
good match. I'm still I feel
bad for Jay with the moniker main event

603
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,559
in jay Uso and you're not really
the main eventing. He's man raw a

604
00:38:23,559 --> 00:38:25,960
lot. He's got those raw main
events though. Yeah, you know,

605
00:38:27,119 --> 00:38:31,760
but you're not putting on four or
five star matches either, like you're doing

606
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:37,079
good three and a half star matches. Kenny though, it's funny because he

607
00:38:37,159 --> 00:38:39,599
had to me because that was another
mixed match. That very first match him

608
00:38:39,599 --> 00:38:44,880
and Roman had Hell in the Cell
that started that whole thing off. I

609
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,199
thought was like a classic where some
people it's too slow, but to me,

610
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:52,000
it's like very old school Doty and
I think he's I think he might

611
00:38:52,079 --> 00:38:54,960
just always be a good wrestler who's
gonna be Uber Poplar and that might be

612
00:38:55,039 --> 00:38:59,159
the bar and that might be okay, you know, maybe he's I don't

613
00:38:59,159 --> 00:39:00,159
know. I was gonna say maybe
it's world champion, but we've had worst

614
00:39:00,159 --> 00:39:04,679
world champions, like they made fucking
Jack Swagger World champions Like if he could

615
00:39:04,679 --> 00:39:08,039
be Jack's, he could be at
least w World whc. You know,

616
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:12,760
so, hey, maybe they gave
the belts a great colleague, so they

617
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,480
might as well give it to Jay, Like maybe he would have like a

618
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,880
long run. He'd be like a
good summer fall in the future, like

619
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,920
a couple months, because not everyone
needs to be a year and a half.

620
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,159
But I don't know, is that
like is because I feel off he's

621
00:39:24,159 --> 00:39:29,599
gonna get back with the USOS.
But WW would also be kind of foolish

622
00:39:29,599 --> 00:39:30,800
if they killed the Soul Act,
right, So they're in a weird spot

623
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:35,079
where he's never gonna be the top
guy, but he's selling merch and people

624
00:39:35,199 --> 00:39:39,199
like him and they love cheering for
him. So imagine the crowd doing the

625
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:45,039
jays and he's there with the belt
in hand, Like I could see that

626
00:39:45,199 --> 00:39:50,880
imagery and they would actually sell a
whole lot of replica titles for the people

627
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:54,559
who want to be in the crowd
bouncing along with him with the championship belt.

628
00:39:54,679 --> 00:39:58,639
They should make a Yeat one too
that Maybe that's the side plates,

629
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,000
right, the side plates. All
the Icy doesn't have side plates, so

630
00:40:01,039 --> 00:40:05,119
the world have. But I feel
like you gotta do some yat side plates,

631
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,280
right, that would have to be
it, But I guess it.

632
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:10,559
Is it fine if even the Wins
like an Icy are us in the future,

633
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:14,480
Like, is that fine? You
know? Oh, the Icy has

634
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,679
has plates, the Icy has plates, Like, so do they change the

635
00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:22,199
side plates? Maybe he could do
it. He could do it, yes,

636
00:40:22,559 --> 00:40:25,039
because I'm looking at a picture of
when Knackamora had it. They do

637
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:30,119
change it. Now it doesn't look
like Gunther changed it, but when Knockamoor

638
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:34,719
had it, they did change it. Oh yeah, I'm looking at another

639
00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:39,480
picture of Gunther whole Yep, Nope, they changed it halfway through Gunther's run,

640
00:40:39,599 --> 00:40:43,800
So they do change it. So
I could see him with the eat

641
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:49,920
belt. I could also see him
doing you know how aw likes to do

642
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,519
where they just changed the strap on
the back. Yeah, that would sell

643
00:40:52,519 --> 00:40:57,559
a lot too, I think those
eat ones. Yeah, so that they

644
00:40:57,559 --> 00:41:00,000
can do a lot with it.
I do think that they need to give

645
00:41:00,119 --> 00:41:06,079
him a run at the belt soon
before Punk comes back, because I think

646
00:41:06,159 --> 00:41:12,039
once Punk comes back, that needs
to be the focus. Oh see,

647
00:41:12,039 --> 00:41:15,079
I think i'm their verse where I
think they'll do it after because I think

648
00:41:15,119 --> 00:41:17,719
they'll get him back with the bloodline
stuff and that'll keep them busy for six

649
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:22,679
months and people go like, oh, Jay would be champion, but he's

650
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,679
helping his brother out, he's helping
his cousin out, so they could use

651
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:29,199
and I think he'll stay He'll stay
hot for it. I am excited because

652
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:31,960
you know what's gonna happen when they
get back together. They're gonna make Roman

653
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:36,480
do the yeat and they're gonna make
them do the bound You're gonna They're gonna

654
00:41:36,519 --> 00:41:38,840
make them do that when they're baby
faces. And that's gonna be when Roman

655
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:43,159
says yeat. That's gonna be a
big moment. That's gonna be huge.

656
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:46,360
So with Jay, I'm I'm of
two minds because, like I think one,

657
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:51,079
I think this was a good match
because after the Jimmy match, people

658
00:41:51,119 --> 00:41:53,480
really question Jay. I think people
will really like it's over to the Ussos

659
00:41:53,519 --> 00:41:58,599
again. I'm not on that bad
way because like Dowie's not into throwing money

660
00:41:58,599 --> 00:42:00,199
away and you can't look at me
and say, hey, they should stop

661
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:04,440
doing the main event Jay thin because
like he's over, right, even if

662
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,719
he's losing, he's over. Maybe
they give him like a month run at

663
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,639
something I see, so I think
what they're doing is here was fine.

664
00:42:09,679 --> 00:42:15,119
I was surprised that the no bloodline
interfered with him, so I'm not sure

665
00:42:15,199 --> 00:42:16,760
really what's next for him. He's
not in King of the Ring, so

666
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:22,159
I don't know where Jay goes from
here. And that's why I just thought

667
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,039
there's been rumors of a trade.
Maybe he does go to SmackDown and they

668
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:29,679
like, if it's bloodline, that
makes sense because that's six months written out

669
00:42:29,679 --> 00:42:32,599
for him. He'll fight Solo,
he'll fight Tomah, he'll fight Loa,

670
00:42:32,679 --> 00:42:37,599
he'll fight Jacob, like that's a
bunch of matches already done. The Ussols

671
00:42:37,599 --> 00:42:40,800
will get back together. So I
think I think it all depends on if

672
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:45,400
he gets traded. And the Damien
thing, to me, it makes zero

673
00:42:45,639 --> 00:42:49,559
sense. I think your scenario of
Judgment Days screwing him makes sense, and

674
00:42:49,599 --> 00:42:52,760
it should have been the very first
time at Clash and then the next raw

675
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:57,599
you start that baby face turn on
this weird build up, and that's why

676
00:42:57,599 --> 00:43:00,679
it's very odd that if they have
Drue Damien and Damien's starting to be this

677
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:05,760
big and it was out of nowhere. The past year they've been cheating.

678
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:09,119
These were guys that were gonna like
concuss Edge's wife, and all of a

679
00:43:09,119 --> 00:43:14,000
sudden, now out of nowhere,
Damien's just like, don't interfere in my

680
00:43:14,039 --> 00:43:16,639
matches. Nothing spurred this on,
and it felt like and that's where this

681
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,800
triple A chair is great so far, but there's still they still got some

682
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,400
cons and this has made no sense. And yeah, thins the more natural

683
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:29,840
babyface. My theory is they're doing
this because when Ria comes back, she's

684
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,920
gonna be a babyface. They're gonna
split off Judgment Day. But WW is

685
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:37,639
still very meh on intergender matches,
and I feel like because they always talk

686
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:42,800
about her and Damian being the the
twin Towers or whatever that is. I

687
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,639
think they'll have Damien turn face so
then they can do like a live and

688
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:51,920
down versus Rhea and Damien. They
can have Damian because I think they're more

689
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:55,480
connected. So that's my only theory. They're starting to turn Damien face so

690
00:43:55,559 --> 00:44:00,159
he can turn with Rhea and they
can do a lot of intergender matches with

691
00:44:00,199 --> 00:44:02,760
them as a team. Because I
don't WW should I don't think they have

692
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:07,519
the balls of the due down versus
Rhea. I think that's a money matchup.

693
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,639
It won't hurt don to lose.
He'll bump all over. But you

694
00:44:10,679 --> 00:44:15,440
know how they are with intergender stuff, they're always like, eh, like

695
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:16,599
like we don't want to do it. They don't want to start it because

696
00:44:16,599 --> 00:44:19,679
they know some of the women are
better than the men, so they don't

697
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,320
even start that conversation that role.
So that's my theory that they're turning Damien

698
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:30,199
so they can do like Live and
JD Live in finn Live and you know

699
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:34,559
whoever. That that's what I think's
happening. You know, I could see

700
00:44:34,599 --> 00:44:38,800
that. My only thing against that
is we don't have a timetable for Rhea,

701
00:44:39,039 --> 00:44:44,239
So why start the face turning?
Now? If you had a timetable

702
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,599
for Rhea, if you knew,
okay, she's on the downturn of her

703
00:44:47,639 --> 00:44:52,039
injury, she'll be back in a
month and a half or so, okay,

704
00:44:52,679 --> 00:44:55,880
start start your face term. Then
that way it's fully planted by time

705
00:44:55,920 --> 00:45:00,440
she comes back. I fear that
if you start it and maybe she doesn't

706
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:07,760
progress with her injury and it's gonna
take longer, then you just leave Damien

707
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:13,280
out there floundering as a face when
he really doesn't need to be. I

708
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:15,840
do want to ask you one thing
going back to the USO's in the blood

709
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:19,760
Line. Yeah, And I thought
about this yesterday and I was like,

710
00:45:20,199 --> 00:45:22,800
please, I don't want this to
happen, but I could see it happening

711
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:32,239
just because everyone involved. Could Jimmy
and Jay pull a Cody Dustin before getting

712
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:38,400
back together another match, No,
another match that ends with the I need

713
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:45,119
my brother and then they they take
on I don't want it to happen,

714
00:45:45,159 --> 00:45:51,239
but I could see it happenings I
feel like because if the reaction of the

715
00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,599
first match was better, i'd say
yes, because that first match is like,

716
00:45:54,159 --> 00:45:57,880
heyll those one of the worst w
matches ever, which I don't agree

717
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:00,760
with, but just that match is
always bring up my timeline anytime that comes

718
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,800
up, like yeah, but they
really shit the bed there, So like

719
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:08,039
I don't think so I think the
what I think is gonna happen is somehow

720
00:46:08,119 --> 00:46:13,079
Jay will end up on SmackDown.
There's gonna be a beatdown, and Jimmy

721
00:46:13,119 --> 00:46:15,760
will come to make the save and
that's how they get them back together.

722
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:17,599
Because Jay did already say in Alid
Domania, He's like, hey, I'm

723
00:46:17,639 --> 00:46:22,119
ready to reconnect, right, So
I think they've alreadlaid that, so I

724
00:46:22,159 --> 00:46:24,239
think I don't think we'll get another
match, And even though I'm pitching the

725
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:28,679
same thing, I think maybe that's
the only thing they could do with Damien

726
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:32,960
is maybe he's gonna lose the title
and he can one on one feud with

727
00:46:34,039 --> 00:46:36,920
Judgment Day for a little bit.
And there could be a moment where I

728
00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:38,719
remember when they brought Nash back in
two thousand and three, and I love

729
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:44,119
this moment when Shawn Michaels's handcuffed to
the ring and Evolution is beating the shit

730
00:46:44,159 --> 00:46:45,920
out of him and Nash goes back. He's like, what the hell's going

731
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:49,920
on? All my best friends like
what, Like I'm injured and now this

732
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:53,000
is happening. I could see that
happening with Rhea where she comes back and

733
00:46:53,039 --> 00:46:57,320
they're being the hell at Damien.
It's like what the hell? Like this

734
00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,760
is not what's So I could see
both Jay and me Henria coming back in

735
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:06,880
a similar situation where their friend or
loved one sibling is getting beaten up and

736
00:47:07,079 --> 00:47:09,880
they sighed against the group. So, because I don't I wouldn't mind if

737
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:13,320
Jimmy and Jay got another match,
because they could do like a redemption.

738
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:15,320
Maybe you know, maybe they don't
have a banger and then they prove everyone

739
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:20,079
wrong. But I don't know,
because I also didn't agree with Jay's assessment

740
00:47:20,119 --> 00:47:23,079
of oh, we didn't have that
much. He said something about the time,

741
00:47:23,159 --> 00:47:25,599
and it was like, yeah,
but like that doesn't like we didn't

742
00:47:25,639 --> 00:47:29,800
need to throw ten thousand super kicks. We knew they were gonna but they

743
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:30,960
did it to the point where it
was like a meme level. You know,

744
00:47:31,079 --> 00:47:35,360
yes, you can cut out some
of that time with some of those

745
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:38,639
supercicks. Yeah, exactly. So
Speb's's Lessener and Jenner match was Rihantoza,

746
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:43,360
So they have done it. But
Tazao like job or right and a dom

747
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,119
I'm fine with. But it's just
they because I remember that happened. They

748
00:47:46,119 --> 00:47:50,239
were gonna do a Naya Jackson,
Dean Ambrose, they get John Maxon,

749
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:52,639
they got cold feet, Like I
think it's just because there's tons of people

750
00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,760
when you ask some about in her
generess and they know absolutely not, Like

751
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:59,960
it just is not believable, even
though there's tons of women in the world

752
00:48:00,079 --> 00:48:01,920
old that could kick my ass,
kick David's ass, you know, like

753
00:48:02,159 --> 00:48:06,760
the idea of a woman kicking a
man's ass. For some people's like no,

754
00:48:07,119 --> 00:48:09,039
like that couldn't happen. It's we're
men. It's like, no man,

755
00:48:09,119 --> 00:48:15,000
like I believe Rio could kate the
shit Domosteere, like it's a believable

756
00:48:15,039 --> 00:48:17,840
like even then, so it's just
like I don't know. So we will

757
00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:21,760
uh, we'll see what happens.
But next we have we talked about a

758
00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:23,159
little bit the beginning, but we
had the women's tag all to me.

759
00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:27,920
I thought this was a good spotlight. I love that they're doing beyond and

760
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,320
Jade. I think the energy is
great. I love their matching gear.

761
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:32,320
I think they're throwing Jane in the
deep end and I think that's good because

762
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:36,440
there was a couple spots. There's
one I noticed where they were supposed to

763
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,679
do that double arm bar into the
slam, and Jade went for it early

764
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:42,760
and then after she was a little
flustered because she was like moving around,

765
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,840
But like, that's what's gonna happen. This is the time where you can

766
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:47,119
only have them to do the house
shows for so long. You gotta do

767
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:51,000
your live. You're in a big
match, you gotta go because then if

768
00:48:51,039 --> 00:48:52,840
she sinks, then you know,
hey, come time WrestleMania. We're not

769
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,280
putting in a fucking spotlight match,
you know. And I think she did

770
00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:59,440
well. This match to me was
just this was a spotlight match and it

771
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:04,320
was for moments. The Cari finish
everything. Kubuki Warriors are always good.

772
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,920
So no, I thought this was
like what it needed to be and was

773
00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,440
good. Let Jaye and Beyonca just
dominate for at least six months. Like

774
00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:15,239
I said, my my fantasy booking
is to make it to the rumble.

775
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,320
Maybe one of them throws each other
out. They like, they start arguing

776
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,599
that cost of title, and we're
right on the wrestling a mega powers explode

777
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,559
for Jade Bianca. That's what I'm
pitching. So yeah, no, it

778
00:49:25,639 --> 00:49:30,440
was. It was a good match
for those four. I think that the

779
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:37,239
way that they have Bianca and Jade's
set up, where they're just two strong

780
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:40,400
women, like there were flights and
throughout the entire mass just showing their pure

781
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:45,199
strength. I think that is perfect
for them because if you do run into

782
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:51,119
a situation where Jade gets for lack
of caught up in the lights, yeah,

783
00:49:51,159 --> 00:49:54,239
all they have to do is do
a feet of strength spot until she

784
00:49:54,960 --> 00:50:00,880
gets her momentum back. And it
will seem flawless for them. It will

785
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:04,440
seem in it too, like in
character for them. Yeah, just hey,

786
00:50:04,639 --> 00:50:09,840
show off your pure strength. I
yeah that they leaned into that.

787
00:50:10,039 --> 00:50:15,760
And you know, with them being
one SmackDown and in my opinion, SmackDown

788
00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:22,960
having the much deeper women's roster for
both single and Tag, they they own

789
00:50:22,159 --> 00:50:29,119
the women's division in my opinion right
now. That they are going to have

790
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:32,000
a lot of good people that they
can go up against, who can bump

791
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:37,760
for them and who can work into
their feats of strength, and so that

792
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:39,440
that would just be good for them. Yeah. Let them have a nice

793
00:50:40,199 --> 00:50:46,280
long run with the belt just being
strong dominant women and that just be their

794
00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:51,599
thing. Hey, we're not here
to be the Hill group. We're not

795
00:50:51,639 --> 00:50:53,719
here to be the face group where
it's just strong dominant women and we are

796
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:59,920
going to dominate this division and show
you just how strong we are. When

797
00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:04,719
Jade came out, my girlfriend,
who does not watch a lot of wrestling,

798
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:08,119
I mean, Hardley in your wrestling
whatsoever. If she's in the room,

799
00:51:08,159 --> 00:51:13,440
it's on accident to the point where
Jade comes out and she goes.

800
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:16,840
She reminds me of Storm from the
X Men. And I go, that's

801
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:20,639
the thing. She goes she looks
strong, and I'm like, yeah,

802
00:51:20,679 --> 00:51:25,199
and my girlfriend is a bodybuilder.
She is training, she's got a bodybuilding

803
00:51:25,199 --> 00:51:30,360
show in three weeks. So for
her to look at this girl and compliment

804
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:35,280
how strong she is and how great
her presentation is and that's coming from a

805
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:38,199
bodybuilder. That to me, I
was like, yeah, so she's hitting

806
00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:42,760
everything she's supposed to and that's the
only thing you need to do now right.

807
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,119
It's just a bit. She doesn't
have to be Brett Hart or even

808
00:51:45,199 --> 00:51:49,679
as good as like a Sash Bianca
just has to like a little better and

809
00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,960
a little more skilled. Not that
she isn't because the look and area that's

810
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:55,920
all there. That factor thing's already
done. And the other reason why I

811
00:51:57,000 --> 00:52:00,559
just think this is such a good
idea. You're pairing her with imma opinion

812
00:52:00,639 --> 00:52:02,079
a top three women's restaurer. I
haven't done the list, but I feel

813
00:52:02,079 --> 00:52:07,159
like it's like Ria Bianca and I'd
probably go to Charlotte. You can make

814
00:52:07,159 --> 00:52:10,039
it for uh, Sasha and Bailey
and lots of others. There's other people

815
00:52:10,039 --> 00:52:14,039
on xt T, but like to
me, Beyonca, Rhea and Charlotte,

816
00:52:14,079 --> 00:52:17,159
those are the best. So it's
like putting Jade with Bianca absolutely the right

817
00:52:17,199 --> 00:52:22,360
thing to do because she's like fantastic
in the ring, has the character stuff,

818
00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:25,800
has the promos, so it's she
can like any spots that she needs

819
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:30,079
carrying Beyonca's right there, you know, like Beyonca is the person that could

820
00:52:30,119 --> 00:52:31,440
work the handicap match and make it
good. So it's like the fact that

821
00:52:31,559 --> 00:52:36,280
Jade's there too that works, And
uh yeah, I think I think this

822
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,119
is just like a money one and
also give like you said, a long

823
00:52:38,199 --> 00:52:43,440
rain because those tag titles they've really
had like a messy history, you know,

824
00:52:43,639 --> 00:52:45,320
a great start with Sasha and Bailey, but then they had like a

825
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:51,000
month run and then there's injuries,
and sometimes they're just like they should be

826
00:52:51,159 --> 00:52:52,960
important titles. All take titles should
be, but like the women's one have

827
00:52:53,039 --> 00:52:58,039
never felt other than maybe when they
first debuted them. There's all this is

828
00:52:58,079 --> 00:53:00,920
probably the most important they've felt since
then. So I hope they make them

829
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:04,239
not an afterthought, and I think
with Beyonca having them, they won't be

830
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:08,400
because they love Beyonca, right,
So yeah, having a title that people

831
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:15,119
actually chase makes it feel important and
for a while, It wasn't we're chasing

832
00:53:15,599 --> 00:53:17,800
the women's tag team titles. It
was, Hey, we're gonna have a

833
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:21,519
match and you're gonna be going for
the women's tag team title. Oh,

834
00:53:21,519 --> 00:53:23,280
hey, we won the women's tax
team title. Guess we are going to

835
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:30,519
be a team for a while now, I e. Chelsea Green and Piper

836
00:53:30,599 --> 00:53:36,079
Nevin. Hey saw before that.
Yeah, you guys are a tag team

837
00:53:36,079 --> 00:53:38,079
now, so here you go.
You got the belt, so we're gonna

838
00:53:38,159 --> 00:53:42,960
keep you guys together. Having people
actually chase that belt and want to chase

839
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:50,199
that belt makes it so much more
important when you think I suppose to ask

840
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:53,000
when the feud happens. Like I
said, my fantasy booking is Rumbleton,

841
00:53:53,039 --> 00:53:57,880
because I think, what's we're in
June now, and they can even lose

842
00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:00,519
the titles before we're remains that be
June and July, August, Tember,

843
00:54:00,559 --> 00:54:04,079
October, November, December, j
Anyway, that's a long time. That's

844
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:07,000
that is that is eight months,
So that's a tough time. But like

845
00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:08,840
we said, if they give them
a long run, like give them six

846
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:14,119
month run and then in those last
two months you start to build the tent

847
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,440
and you make Jake. Because I
think Jade's gotta be heel. She's a

848
00:54:16,519 --> 00:54:22,039
natural like she's a good babyface but
in aw she was a natural heal like

849
00:54:22,079 --> 00:54:24,840
the that bitch promo. So I
feel like you do six months of them

850
00:54:25,199 --> 00:54:30,159
best friends tearing the roster part,
and then those last two monthsly enough to

851
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:34,119
rumble. There's some contention, but
they could do earlier. They could,

852
00:54:34,119 --> 00:54:37,960
But I just think maybe the answer
is also just when Jade's ready to Maybe

853
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,079
it's just they're gonna make it a
case by case, But when do you

854
00:54:39,159 --> 00:54:44,199
think could be the break apart?
Well, you can use exactly what Sup

855
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:51,320
said, use the whole tension between
Bailey and Bianca, and that is the

856
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:55,920
point when there is a split off. Someone's gonna want to go after Bailey's

857
00:54:57,159 --> 00:55:02,320
championship, and that's where you split
Jade and Bianco. Okay, we are

858
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:07,199
both the two strongest. Who gets
to go after the belt? Do a

859
00:55:07,199 --> 00:55:09,559
triple threat too, and then start
some tensions. Remember when they did Cina

860
00:55:09,679 --> 00:55:14,360
versus Michael's and HBK and that was
that was a fun scenario where there were

861
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:17,360
team champions, but Sean Sweetschendingham right
away. You could do something like that,

862
00:55:17,599 --> 00:55:22,920
you know. Yeah, So it's
gotta be. That's a good easy

863
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:28,400
way to create the dissension, to
start to split the team, but also

864
00:55:28,519 --> 00:55:34,119
establish some people for Bailey and keep
that storyline going because right now, again

865
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:37,679
the SmackDown roster's pretty stacked, So
Bailey's gonna have some challengers for a while.

866
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:42,599
So you can luck Bianca and Jade
cook over and the tag team for

867
00:55:42,639 --> 00:55:45,679
a little bit. But then,
yeah, once she's had those matches under

868
00:55:45,679 --> 00:55:50,840
her belt, once she's had those
uh showings on the ples and showed that

869
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:53,360
she can actually go, then yeah, present her ready to make a run

870
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:57,440
out of World Championship. Yeah,
well, because we'll talk about the king

871
00:55:57,519 --> 00:56:00,559
Ring quickly before we get to the
main event. Because yet, to me,

872
00:56:02,079 --> 00:56:06,039
it's not that it's tough, right, it's not that it's not the

873
00:56:06,119 --> 00:56:08,000
raw roster for the women. It's
not that it's weak, because's a lot

874
00:56:08,039 --> 00:56:10,760
of great people there are, like
Dalky's coming up and like hervis Oscar that's

875
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:14,960
gonna be great. That's someone of
the matches Io and Natalian, And it's

876
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:17,679
tough because men Ittalian. It's not
that like it's just how we know they

877
00:56:17,679 --> 00:56:20,639
booked Italia, right, you know, it's just kind of be like,

878
00:56:20,679 --> 00:56:22,480
she'll be a good match, but
she's there to lose. The other one

879
00:56:22,519 --> 00:56:25,119
was Shane versus Selena, and then
Zoe versus Ivy. I think the problem

880
00:56:25,119 --> 00:56:29,760
with all four of those other than
Selena, but like they like to a

881
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,400
Lessergie. But the other three,
it's like Shana, Zoe, and Ivy,

882
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:36,159
they've just been like kind of floundering. Those are the ones, like

883
00:56:36,199 --> 00:56:38,000
you talked about the worst of We
have nothing to do with these people.

884
00:56:38,079 --> 00:56:40,679
Put them in a team. She's
with depri Oh, we have nothing to

885
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:43,599
do with Zoe and Shana. Put
them in a team. Like I was

886
00:56:43,639 --> 00:56:46,800
watching when they were doing the Becky
and Trish storyline and Zoe was there,

887
00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:51,719
but just like they never used that
to help her out. So I think

888
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:53,599
that it's not that the raw women's
roster is weak. I think it's just

889
00:56:53,639 --> 00:56:58,760
that they have not been fleshed out
too much. So it's like the when

890
00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:02,679
I see these matches other than Oscar
and Valkyrie, I'm not really that interested

891
00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:07,239
in many of them. I'm like
this, these are like regular raw matches,

892
00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:09,000
which we'll get into the draft after
about some black their switches off and

893
00:57:09,039 --> 00:57:13,079
stuff. Like I thought the coda
was cleared, like I would rather her

894
00:57:13,199 --> 00:57:15,000
be in here too, you know, Like I don't know that's and I

895
00:57:15,119 --> 00:57:19,280
also Rhea's gone right now, and
I feel like the reason lives not in

896
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,599
this because they're probably gonna do Living
Becky and that that makes sense to me.

897
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,400
So Living Becky I'm very interested in. But the rest of this I

898
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:30,039
don't know. But like we don't
know the SmackDown side. But yeah,

899
00:57:30,039 --> 00:57:31,960
how are you feeling about on the
raw side for the women? Who do

900
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:37,679
you think makes that the way makes
it all away? I'm not sure with

901
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:45,920
the women because there's not anyone strong. I would just guess Lyra because she

902
00:57:45,119 --> 00:57:51,400
had such a good showing in Next
Tea that they might use this to propel

903
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:57,239
her up. I loved Selena Vegan
when she won, and I'm sad that

904
00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:00,519
she's going against Shana to start.
Yeah, I could see Shana winning just

905
00:58:00,599 --> 00:58:08,360
because she has that whole Queen of
Hearts gimmick with her already and they just

906
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:15,079
repair that. But I don't want
to see Shana with a crown and all

907
00:58:15,119 --> 00:58:20,519
that. Just she's not a good
promo in my opinion, to be able

908
00:58:20,599 --> 00:58:23,920
to handle the promos that the Queen
of the Ring would have to, because

909
00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:29,320
that's one thing that they are also
known for. From Austin on, people

910
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:36,079
who have won the King and Queen
of the Ring have delivered with good promos,

911
00:58:36,159 --> 00:58:40,079
either during or after. Booker's run
as a king, even Baron Corbyn's

912
00:58:40,159 --> 00:58:50,119
run as a king was it.
Regal had an amazing run as a heel

913
00:58:50,639 --> 00:58:54,280
king, just sitting in the throne
with the menacing look, and his promos

914
00:58:54,360 --> 00:59:00,039
afterwards just were amazing. So you
have to ask someone who can come and

915
00:59:00,159 --> 00:59:06,400
deliver not just with the wrestling aspect
of it, but also the presentation of

916
00:59:06,639 --> 00:59:09,599
the king Grit queen, and I
think Selena did an amazing job with the

917
00:59:09,639 --> 00:59:15,880
presentation aspect of it as the queen. One of the biggest what ifs.

918
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:19,400
I hate that you remind me of
Regal, Heal Regal, that was this

919
00:59:19,519 --> 00:59:22,920
GM At the same time, I
remember that whole problem is okay to the

920
00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:25,239
lights off and they would move it
to like I hate that he got pomp

921
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:29,039
for fucking steroids, not like that
was the Pulsey right, so you should

922
00:59:29,079 --> 00:59:31,599
haven't don it, but man like
he was getting it. Look like for

923
00:59:31,599 --> 00:59:36,320
the first time Regal was gonna be
like a main top guy and that just

924
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:38,800
like him when Kenny got popped.
Well that's a podcast we should do one

925
00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:44,199
time, like our Top ten like
what ifs and Regal cause he that heel

926
00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:46,679
King of the Ring GM. He
had heat, Like what a piece of

927
00:59:46,679 --> 00:59:50,519
shit? He's the GM and he
enters himself and King of the Ring like

928
00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:52,840
what and then he's like that match
where it was Cena and Triple H and

929
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:57,320
they ended the broadcast so you didn't
get to see. It's like he had

930
00:59:57,559 --> 01:00:00,760
so much heat going on, And
you're right, I my pick. I

931
01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:04,559
think they should give it to Valkyrie, but like to lose at the finals,

932
01:00:04,559 --> 01:00:07,159
I don't think because I think if
she wins, you always risk the

933
01:00:07,159 --> 01:00:08,519
hot shot. We saw when they
did that with Page the first year when

934
01:00:08,559 --> 01:00:12,360
she won the title the first night
and it was an uphill climb. So

935
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:15,960
I think you give her a good
showing that she loses some veteran on SmackDown

936
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:21,239
and we'll see the names and all
the men we got elvers Ricochet, Cop

937
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:25,159
versus Ray Gun, Through versus Seamus, Drew versus Finn and just a super

938
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:30,199
stat Like all four of those matches
are like I can't wait, Like even

939
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:32,000
Kofe and Ray it won't be a
clinic, but that's just gonna be tons

940
01:00:32,039 --> 01:00:35,920
of fun. Like, that's gonna
be a really good time. I have

941
01:00:36,119 --> 01:00:39,800
to me the finals of the men
side being Gunther and Draggon off and Gunther

942
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:44,679
gets his win back here, and
I just don't think Gunther is gonna lose

943
01:00:44,719 --> 01:00:45,519
this. I think he's winning the
whole thing, but I think for the

944
01:00:45,599 --> 01:00:50,920
raw side for sure. But great
line up right there. Yeah, I

945
01:00:51,079 --> 01:00:57,559
really really want Gunnthro to take the
men's side, just because I think that

946
01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:02,559
he would be an excellent king of
the ring. Just his whole presentation already

947
01:01:02,639 --> 01:01:08,079
leans into it. Rick Achet just
won the Speed Championship, so he's gonna

948
01:01:08,519 --> 01:01:13,039
put on a good showing, but
he's not winning it. If the match

949
01:01:13,079 --> 01:01:15,320
is longer than five minutes, he's
screwed, you know. Yeah, you

950
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:20,119
can't win Kofe and Ray It's it's
gonna be a good match. I have

951
01:01:20,159 --> 01:01:24,199
a feeling Kofe's gonna go over and
I don't know how how the bracket is

952
01:01:24,239 --> 01:01:29,679
set yet, but I see him
losing to goun Thro to continue that whole

953
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:36,800
New Day versus Imperium thing. Drew
Mcintyron Finn is just gonna bang. I

954
01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:38,679
don't care who wins because I know
neither is gonna win in the finals,

955
01:01:38,679 --> 01:01:43,440
but I just know it's gonna be
a damn good match. Yeah, I

956
01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,079
think Drew, it's just a question
of when does Seampunk Screw. I think

957
01:01:46,119 --> 01:01:49,239
that's probably it, right, is
it? Right away? Is in the

958
01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:52,320
finals, so he can lose round
one because Punk's music hits and he looks

959
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:57,880
up and then Finn rolls them up
and it's over right. Yeah, depending

960
01:01:57,920 --> 01:02:06,159
on how they have it at,
I could see a situation where it is

961
01:02:06,519 --> 01:02:13,599
Drewe versus Gunther and it's the hard
hitting match, and then the way that

962
01:02:13,679 --> 01:02:19,440
I envision it again, I don't
know where the brackets line up, Ilia

963
01:02:19,519 --> 01:02:23,639
beating Ricochet going through Beaten Shamus.
I think Gunthro and Ilia face in round

964
01:02:23,719 --> 01:02:29,079
two, and then Gunther goes on
for the raw final against Drew, and

965
01:02:29,199 --> 01:02:34,039
that's where Punk cosst Drew in the
raw finals to see who goes on to

966
01:02:34,119 --> 01:02:37,519
the actual King of the Ring match. I could see that. Yeah.

967
01:02:37,599 --> 01:02:40,000
Either way, I think you're getting
You're getting Gunther and Draggon off and Gunther

968
01:02:40,079 --> 01:02:44,559
will get the win here and then
they're in WW Worlds tied. They're one

969
01:02:44,719 --> 01:02:46,639
one, right, and then you
can run that back at some point,

970
01:02:46,719 --> 01:02:50,639
right, So yeah, great,
and I'm excited to see the SmackDown.

971
01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:53,679
It was weird that they revealed the
Raw on Backlash and they're revealing the SmackDown

972
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:59,079
on Raw. I thought you would
have flipped that because SmackDown's also on Backlash.

973
01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:00,880
It was just my I don't think
it was like why, But that's

974
01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:07,519
okay, yeah, unless I don't
know. Are they starting this week?

975
01:03:07,599 --> 01:03:10,480
If they're starting this week, then
it makes sense. So if if they're

976
01:03:10,519 --> 01:03:13,320
starting this week, then they're like, all right, hey, this is

977
01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:15,239
what's coming up Monday, and on
Monday, we'll announced what's coming up on

978
01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:17,840
Friday. If it's not starting till
the week after, then yeah, it

979
01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:22,079
doesn't make sense. They probably are
because I forgot to say this. Usually

980
01:03:22,119 --> 01:03:23,719
we wait a month, but what
we'll probably be doing, whether it's a

981
01:03:23,719 --> 01:03:28,639
Monday or Tuesday after we got double
or nothing. May twenty sixth, and

982
01:03:28,679 --> 01:03:30,599
then King of the Ring the twenty
fifth, So the week after, well

983
01:03:30,639 --> 01:03:34,760
that's will be the next giving episode
because that's two pay per views back to

984
01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:37,679
back. I'm camping for half of
them, so I'll be gone and then

985
01:03:37,719 --> 01:03:39,159
i'll have to like watch it all
on the Sunday night. But uh,

986
01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:43,519
yeah, you're right, they'll probably
starting Monday. Because they're doing four matches

987
01:03:43,559 --> 01:03:45,199
for each bracket for men and women's. That's a lot of matches. It's

988
01:03:45,199 --> 01:03:47,719
not like some of the bad King
of the Rings where we just had like

989
01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:51,480
eight matches and that was it.
I was like, oh, brother,

990
01:03:52,119 --> 01:03:54,920
yeah, I've already told my family
to check me out on that weekend because

991
01:03:55,199 --> 01:04:00,880
my birthday's Friday. King of the
Ring and then do nothing. It's a

992
01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:03,920
three day event for me, So
I'm like, yeah, nope, you

993
01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:10,400
guys just count me out. Only
text me for emergencies. And then we

994
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:12,719
had the main event. We had
AJ versus Cody. I mean, I

995
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:15,320
start with you because you were kind
of you, you were not mixed on

996
01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:17,880
it, but you weren't sure how
you were feeling. So now after not

997
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:20,360
twenty four hour oh I guess,
no, I guess it's not twenty four

998
01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:23,840
us. But a day later,
how are you feeling? On the main

999
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:28,920
event? Cody retains, which we
I don't think that if a J would

1000
01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:30,920
have one, I feel like,
again, that would have been I'm not

1001
01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:32,599
saying Cody has to hold it for
a year. But I feel like most

1002
01:04:32,599 --> 01:04:36,639
of us assume he's at least gonna
get to like Survivor series, you know,

1003
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:43,639
like I need my sign if AJ
wins we Riot. So my first

1004
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:47,480
viewing, and I do rank a
lot of matches off of the emotion that

1005
01:04:47,519 --> 01:04:50,760
it gives me. My first one, I felt a little let down,

1006
01:04:51,159 --> 01:04:56,039
but I feel like that was my
own fault, well half my fault,

1007
01:04:56,039 --> 01:05:00,039
half ww's fault, because the way
that they had been hyping Unclehudi, that

1008
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:04,280
cloud was over the match the entire
time, and I spent a lot of

1009
01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:10,079
time thinking, Cody's winning this,
when am I gonna get my Uncle Howdy

1010
01:05:10,159 --> 01:05:14,800
part? And so with that cloud
over there, it was hard to fully

1011
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,599
invest in the match itself. I
took a couple hours break, and then

1012
01:05:17,599 --> 01:05:23,679
I went back and I rewatched the
match without that cloud over there. And

1013
01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:29,199
rewatching the match, it did jump
up from a three and a quarter to

1014
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:33,000
a four star match in my opinion, just being able to focus in on

1015
01:05:33,119 --> 01:05:38,280
that, the story going into that
and everything else, I was able to

1016
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:43,360
better enjoy the match without the cloud
of Okay, when are the lights going

1017
01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:45,920
out? When are the White six
gonna appear in the crowd? When's this

1018
01:05:46,039 --> 01:05:54,000
gonna happen. Just enjoying the peer
match itself was great, And on a

1019
01:05:54,039 --> 01:05:59,719
minor note, I love the fact
that on the back of Cody's ring jacket

1020
01:05:59,719 --> 01:06:04,159
when he he's coming out, he
put a border around his logo that is

1021
01:06:04,199 --> 01:06:10,840
the same border of the Undisputed Championship, So instead of the ww logo,

1022
01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:15,559
it's his championship in that border,
and it even says Undisputed Champion under there.

1023
01:06:15,119 --> 01:06:21,000
That shot from the back of him
with the crowd all doing the woe

1024
01:06:21,159 --> 01:06:27,800
at the same time, it was
it made him truly feel like a big

1025
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:32,639
deal champion. And I think that
that presentation is going to be paramount because

1026
01:06:32,719 --> 01:06:39,079
right now he doesn't really have a
big, storied challenger coming up. Right

1027
01:06:39,079 --> 01:06:41,760
now, it's just gonna be a
couple of here and there until we can

1028
01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:45,199
get to a big program. But
he doesn't have anything big coming up,

1029
01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:49,000
so keeping that strong presentation that everyone
loves him as champion is going to be

1030
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:54,119
paramount, and I think that that's
what they did here and it was amazing.

1031
01:06:55,559 --> 01:06:59,280
I felt bad for Aj on the
flip side though, with him just

1032
01:06:59,519 --> 01:07:05,639
transferring his music. This has been
a great time. I feel like they

1033
01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:11,239
the crowd would have sunk his old
music. No one knows this new deaf

1034
01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:15,320
rebel music or does anyone like it? So I see you in the chat,

1035
01:07:15,320 --> 01:07:16,960
ass bubs, I see praise AJ's
new theme. No, man,

1036
01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:20,800
what absolutely not? S Bubs get
out of here, don't. I know

1037
01:07:20,840 --> 01:07:27,360
you're a deaf rebel defender, you
know, believer, But this AJ styles

1038
01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:30,360
theme is just it just it sounds
like it's a song and a blender like

1039
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:33,440
it's just it just does not have
a good vibe. I'm not digging it,

1040
01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:35,480
but I just I joke. So
I'm glad you are. But yeah,

1041
01:07:35,480 --> 01:07:39,559
if they would have had you don't
want none all that, Like,

1042
01:07:39,639 --> 01:07:42,559
yeah, I would have been would
have been great. I get that as

1043
01:07:42,639 --> 01:07:45,519
a heel. But yeah, I'm
curious what they're gonna do this. I

1044
01:07:45,599 --> 01:07:48,599
really like the match. I thought
they on purpose at like a slower start.

1045
01:07:48,639 --> 01:07:51,719
I'm like a four at five where
I thought it was. When I

1046
01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:56,480
say better than average to me,
people might sound like that's an insult.

1047
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:59,960
No, because like most average matches
is like really good nowadays, right like

1048
01:08:00,039 --> 01:08:02,920
ring quality is just good all around
the board in w and AW. So

1049
01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:06,280
I thought it was really good.
I thought the back half really picked up.

1050
01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:10,119
I thought the third quarter of the
match, they're back and forth,

1051
01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:12,880
you know, the Bernie Hammer spot, the kickout at one, you know

1052
01:08:13,039 --> 01:08:15,239
using that, you know aw Kenny
Omega spot, Like, I think that's

1053
01:08:15,279 --> 01:08:17,800
great. Canny Mega still is the
best spot for that. Though when they

1054
01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:21,720
did the Osprey one, that's still
like the that's the most recent one,

1055
01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:25,359
so you No. I thought they
closed off really good. They had some

1056
01:08:25,399 --> 01:08:31,000
really good sequences. I'm curious to
see where they go because I I'm fine

1057
01:08:31,039 --> 01:08:34,840
with them doing rematches, but I
don't want to be in the old regime

1058
01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:39,199
where it would always be you'd have
that challenger for like two pay per view

1059
01:08:39,279 --> 01:08:43,039
sets like and that happened a j
Remember he was stuck with Nackamoor for a

1060
01:08:43,079 --> 01:08:45,760
while. He was stuck with Joe
for a while. But my thing is

1061
01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:47,760
that they touched upon a little bit
of the bolt club stuff, but they

1062
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:51,239
didn't fully go there. And when
I took one over in the match,

1063
01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:56,439
AJ didn't hit the forearm and he
didn't hit the clash. So I don't

1064
01:08:56,439 --> 01:08:59,520
know either way. Is that them
not having hey, we don't want you

1065
01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:02,199
to kick out because we want AJ
to be strong, or is that well

1066
01:09:02,239 --> 01:09:05,039
we don't want to kick out because
then in the next match when he hits

1067
01:09:05,039 --> 01:09:08,000
it, it is, oh,
well, I didn't hit the clash on

1068
01:09:08,079 --> 01:09:11,039
you, so you didn't kick out
of my stuff, right, And I

1069
01:09:11,119 --> 01:09:14,520
like that. I like that.
Agent also just took one Crossroads and that

1070
01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:17,159
was it. Like, I'm all
down for finishing exchanges, but they got

1071
01:09:17,159 --> 01:09:20,199
to be in key moments, and
you don't also to make finishers just to

1072
01:09:20,239 --> 01:09:25,960
be like nothing nowadays, right,
especially after Mania, my man's hitting like

1073
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:29,079
five crossroads on Roman. It's like, okay, we got to put some

1074
01:09:29,239 --> 01:09:32,119
stank back on this finisher. It's
gonna be like a signature move, right.

1075
01:09:32,199 --> 01:09:36,039
So I thought they had a really
good solid at times. Old school.

1076
01:09:36,119 --> 01:09:41,399
It wasn't as unique as I thought
Cody was gonna do because I remember

1077
01:09:41,399 --> 01:09:44,760
with the Dustin match and then match
she had with Nick all this and the

1078
01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:48,279
Young Bucks match that him and Dustin
had together. He would very much wrestle

1079
01:09:48,359 --> 01:09:54,000
some very very eighties style matches,
and that was a big divide with people

1080
01:09:54,039 --> 01:09:56,600
because with Dustin it worked. And
I remember with all this they did lots

1081
01:09:56,640 --> 01:10:00,159
of different spots and DDP got involved, so he I think he did more

1082
01:10:00,199 --> 01:10:03,000
of like a say for w W
once. I don't think he's gonna bring

1083
01:10:03,039 --> 01:10:06,479
in some of those codyisms in right
away. Maybe he'll do that when he's

1084
01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:10,760
not the main card or like the
main event. But I thought it was

1085
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:13,239
good outing. You know, hope
people keep saying the crowd's gonna turn on

1086
01:10:13,279 --> 01:10:15,840
Cody. I don't see that happening
yet, like not for like not not

1087
01:10:16,039 --> 01:10:20,600
at all. And yeah, him
hitting the Kamora lock I thought was just

1088
01:10:21,359 --> 01:10:26,960
a nice little touch. And yeah, so he had that top rope Cody

1089
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:31,720
cutter into his finisher, and I
think that that was best. Like I

1090
01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:38,800
agree with you the spamming of the
finishers that should be big fight. Feel

1091
01:10:39,079 --> 01:10:43,439
like it made sense for all,
right, I had I did two in

1092
01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:45,520
the match earlier he kicked out,
So now that I have another chance,

1093
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:49,840
I'm doing three this time, and
I got to take him out. Same

1094
01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:55,600
thing with you know, the whole
F five's win. Brock was just hitting

1095
01:10:55,680 --> 01:11:00,479
him left and right like finisher matches. Yeah, it's like I've got to

1096
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:03,840
put you down. And this was
not a I have to put you down

1097
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:06,560
type match. This was just a
good back and forth. And yeah,

1098
01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:11,159
AJ can still say, hey,
you know what, had I got the

1099
01:11:11,199 --> 01:11:14,479
styles class shown. You had I
got the phenomenal forearm, you wouldn't have

1100
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:18,920
stood a chance. So that leaves
aj feeling strong. That leaves a chance

1101
01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:24,600
for another rematch where you can do
that, but it doesn't. You took

1102
01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:30,000
away all that extra and they just
had a peer good wrestling match and Cody

1103
01:11:30,079 --> 01:11:35,239
Lee's with everything on a high.
The crowd goes home happy, people get

1104
01:11:35,279 --> 01:11:40,039
to again sing his theme song on
the way out. It was a good

1105
01:11:40,079 --> 01:11:43,960
match and a good ending to that
match. It felt like a big main

1106
01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:45,880
event in the way it felt like
a New Japan main event, but in

1107
01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:49,119
a way where there's fifteen minutes missing. It's still a good match, but

1108
01:11:49,119 --> 01:11:53,439
it feels like in New Japan that
would have went on fifteen minutes longer and

1109
01:11:53,479 --> 01:11:56,720
he would have got that other gear, and that's what I was kind of

1110
01:11:56,760 --> 01:11:59,600
hoping for. Is I still liked
it, but I think there's a chance

1111
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:01,399
they could got to me like a
four point five. I'm not gonna put

1112
01:12:01,399 --> 01:12:03,600
five on them, because that's,
you know, rare, but I think

1113
01:12:03,640 --> 01:12:08,800
they could have gone a bit longer
because when the show ended under three hours,

1114
01:12:08,840 --> 01:12:11,920
I thought, oh, they're gonna
give them like forty minutes, like

1115
01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:15,439
they're gonna make this a long and
they they didn't. So that's where I'm

1116
01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:17,239
not worry. It's not I don't
want to rematch. It's just not immediate.

1117
01:12:17,239 --> 01:12:23,000
But at the same time, I
don't know who on SmackDown Cody wood

1118
01:12:23,039 --> 01:12:27,039
verse next. I feel like they
might do aj again. I don't think

1119
01:12:27,079 --> 01:12:30,399
they'll do a babyface babyface with him
in La Night. I don't think,

1120
01:12:31,479 --> 01:12:33,600
like, who are some other heels
they got on? I guess we can

1121
01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:35,640
kind of talk about the draft too
quickly, but like, who are some

1122
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:40,680
other heels they got on SmackDown?
Right now? That's what I'm liking right

1123
01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:45,319
now because I don't think that they, uh, let's see, they have

1124
01:12:45,399 --> 01:12:49,000
anyone major that can make that challenge. And that's why I feel like it's

1125
01:12:49,039 --> 01:12:53,199
gonna be age and I just don't. That's where you run the risk of

1126
01:12:53,239 --> 01:12:57,000
like that, and that's like the
pro and con right, because then people

1127
01:12:57,039 --> 01:13:00,000
are gonna be like, well,
that's why it was better when Rome was

1128
01:13:00,159 --> 01:13:01,600
because he wouldn't have those rematches.
He was gone. No, there was

1129
01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:04,079
a way to do them, but
you just didn't have to make them immediate.

1130
01:13:04,119 --> 01:13:09,319
But let's see, because yeah,
there's I got the spect roster.

1131
01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:12,079
I guess Bobby, but he'll probably
be in King of the Ring, right,

1132
01:13:12,119 --> 01:13:15,520
But like I would actually prefer Bobby's
been announced for King of the Ring

1133
01:13:15,560 --> 01:13:21,399
though, right, I think I
think that's officials. They haven't announced the

1134
01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:27,000
SmackDown ones yet. As I saw
you say, you could see Gunther and

1135
01:13:27,079 --> 01:13:33,760
Bobby if Cody versus Carracrafts don't even
don't put that on us that that alternate

1136
01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:38,600
feel. I hope if Bobby's okay, So here's my pitch. If Bobby's

1137
01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:40,840
in King of the Ring, then
I think they're just new Cody and AJ

1138
01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:44,039
two, and I don't think they
may an event if he's not. I

1139
01:13:44,039 --> 01:13:47,600
think Cody and Bobby could be good. It's tough because Bobby, like they

1140
01:13:47,600 --> 01:13:50,399
can't decide if they want him healer
or face because they turn him back to

1141
01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:55,399
face. But then he's healing all
over Carmelo this weekend. So I really

1142
01:13:55,479 --> 01:13:58,720
don't know. So I feel like
we're probably gonna get AJ and Cody maybe

1143
01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:01,760
at least give us a stipn you
know, do something a little bit different.

1144
01:14:01,920 --> 01:14:09,920
So okay, So for SmackDown and
for the men's let's see you got

1145
01:14:10,239 --> 01:14:17,399
for your singles, top stars.
You got Solo, Shinske, Randy Don't

1146
01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:31,560
Lais, Yeah, Carmelo Hayes,
which could just good. But just like

1147
01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:36,520
I would be, oh yeah,
Drodde, he's Babyface, I wouldn't be

1148
01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:42,640
opposed to a either Face Ko or
Face l A Knight. Get him the

1149
01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:45,439
match. I don't know if that
main events the show, but like I'm

1150
01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:47,880
not opposed. I'm never scared of
like a baby Face baby Face match,

1151
01:14:47,880 --> 01:14:50,600
but I think those can be fun. But I guess we'll see. I'm

1152
01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:54,239
gonna say the safe bet that they're
gonna run back with a j That's why

1153
01:14:54,239 --> 01:14:56,439
I think it's gonna happen. And
maybe they'll have King of the Ring main

1154
01:14:56,520 --> 01:15:00,199
event or something so or the world
away title, so we'll see. So

1155
01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:03,399
yeah, overall, good show.
Uh, let's see. Yah Saudi loved

1156
01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:06,920
La Night last time. Maybe get
thro rub there, but we'll go full

1157
01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:09,840
into this. But what did you
think as a ton of the roster?

1158
01:15:10,199 --> 01:15:15,560
What were your thoughts on the draft
overall that happened Monday and Friday previous week,

1159
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:17,920
And it felt like that's the first
time in the triple A chair where

1160
01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:21,199
I feel like there was a lot
of this was a done. I don't

1161
01:15:21,199 --> 01:15:25,199
think it was like channel turning.
I don't think it was like an,

1162
01:15:25,239 --> 01:15:26,960
oh, we're in trouble. I
just think this is the first time where

1163
01:15:26,960 --> 01:15:30,279
a lot of people went man.
Usually Triple A just delivered on these big

1164
01:15:30,319 --> 01:15:33,319
events and this era and it didn't
really It felt kind of very similar not

1165
01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:35,680
bad Vince Ara. So it just
felt like, oh, run in the

1166
01:15:35,680 --> 01:15:39,760
mill. A couple changes here,
so I feel like this was the first

1167
01:15:39,800 --> 01:15:42,199
stumble. But luckily they just had
a great pay per view, so I

1168
01:15:42,199 --> 01:15:47,159
think they're they're a okay. There
were no big aha, gotcha moments,

1169
01:15:47,399 --> 01:15:53,960
and I mean I would have liked
to see because they did stylize it as

1170
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:57,479
the NFL Draft, which was gone
on the same week, I would have

1171
01:15:57,640 --> 01:16:00,840
liked to have seen some trade ups
or something else, like if you're going

1172
01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:06,319
to stylize it off of that,
then truly make it an event like that,

1173
01:16:06,479 --> 01:16:11,279
like, hey, we have you
know such such they picked him up,

1174
01:16:11,319 --> 01:16:15,319
but you know what, now we
are trading him for two other draft

1175
01:16:15,359 --> 01:16:18,159
picks and things like that, Like
do something like that if you're not if

1176
01:16:18,199 --> 01:16:23,880
you're going to make for the most
part, the roster is pretty predictable.

1177
01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:26,960
They didn't change that much some people
could be like, Okay, I can

1178
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:31,880
see where this is going with some
of the earlier draft picks, like okay,

1179
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:36,319
SmackDown's got Bianca bell Air. Well, now I know that Montese Ford

1180
01:16:36,399 --> 01:16:43,359
is staying on SmackDown and Jade.
Yeah, they're not. They're not splitting

1181
01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:46,960
couples anymore and doing stupid stuff like
that. So you kind of knew our

1182
01:16:47,399 --> 01:16:50,000
well, this is what's going to
happen. This person went there, so

1183
01:16:50,039 --> 01:16:55,159
I know that someone else is going
to go there. It was pretty predictable,

1184
01:16:55,159 --> 01:17:00,800
so I think there could have been
some more big moments and just let

1185
01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:04,680
that have. For as much as
it was hyped up, it just it

1186
01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:10,000
did not live up to the height. I also think they kind of ruined

1187
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:16,159
the whole thing with bron Strumman,
you know, drafting him before having him

1188
01:17:16,199 --> 01:17:20,359
return. I think you have him
return and then with the next set of

1189
01:17:20,479 --> 01:17:25,720
drafts that come right afterwards, go
hey, now that we've seen he's back,

1190
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:30,319
that's who we want. Yeah,
I agree, that's good s Bubbs

1191
01:17:30,359 --> 01:17:35,399
with some more trash Giovanni and Cody
strap the rocket to him. You know,

1192
01:17:36,279 --> 01:17:41,680
if he's bringing back his nx T
with the with the Gugie and the

1193
01:17:41,680 --> 01:17:46,079
ferraris then yes, please, I'm
here for that. Yeah. Well,

1194
01:17:46,359 --> 01:17:49,760
I hope he does that because I'm
worried about him. But I think the

1195
01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:54,800
draft is in a very difficult spot
because I think the best method is to

1196
01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:58,119
do like the Superstar Shakeup, where
you just this show would have been better

1197
01:17:58,159 --> 01:18:01,319
if it's like, hey, only
four people are switching brands and that's like,

1198
01:18:01,359 --> 01:18:03,640
oh damn Controls coming over. This
is cool. But when it's the

1199
01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:06,600
whole roster, I think that's not
a surprise. I thought, oh,

1200
01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:11,359
we're getting a really big reset,
and we really Didn't's just them draft everybody.

1201
01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:15,039
So it's tough because you want to
do a draft. You don't want

1202
01:18:15,039 --> 01:18:17,760
to do Superstar Shakeup because no one
like mainstream like what's the Superstar Shakeup?

1203
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:20,680
Drafts like, oh, it's like
the NFL. And the tough thing is

1204
01:18:20,720 --> 01:18:24,920
like, in a perfect world,
I would love it if the draft was

1205
01:18:25,039 --> 01:18:29,079
purely all you could do is you
could only trade made roster guys and you

1206
01:18:29,079 --> 01:18:31,840
can only draft from NXT like the
NFL, they're all rookies. That'd be

1207
01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:38,640
great, but the problem is the
football community consume not everybody Like I watch

1208
01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:41,439
NFL, I don't watch college but
tons of people that are mega fans watch

1209
01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:44,399
both, right, they know who's
geting. Like when people get drafted the

1210
01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:46,119
draft, I asked my football friends, this is a good pick for us?

1211
01:18:46,199 --> 01:18:49,560
Yes, great, you know,
but there's people that know this guy's

1212
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:54,479
going here, this guy's going there. The WWE doesn't have that exact same

1213
01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:58,039
audience, right Raw and smacked in
or watch anywhere from one point five to

1214
01:18:58,079 --> 01:19:01,199
sometimes three million people and is seven
hundred thousand, So you don't have that

1215
01:19:01,239 --> 01:19:05,079
same You have a few of the
big time like Carmelo and bron but like

1216
01:19:05,079 --> 01:19:08,720
like the some of the women,
like Blair Downport, they didn't know who

1217
01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:10,960
that was, right, There was
no pop there. So that's a tough

1218
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:14,600
thing. Where an ideal world,
I'd love it, Hey, we're gonna

1219
01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:17,920
draft ten rookies from NXT five or
SmackDown five FRAU. I think that would

1220
01:19:17,920 --> 01:19:20,920
be cool to like replicate like a
college thing, like, oh man,

1221
01:19:20,920 --> 01:19:25,119
they're coming up. But and I
think they shot themselves in the foot.

1222
01:19:25,359 --> 01:19:29,199
They didn't have Braun or Tiffany at
WrestleMania. They shouldn't have brought them up

1223
01:19:29,279 --> 01:19:30,439
till the draft, and that would
have had like a bigger impact. You

1224
01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:34,600
still could have thrown Tiffany in a
triple threat quickly. Maybe she like signed

1225
01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:38,159
some sort of deal like that'd be
a fun thing too, Like that's how

1226
01:19:38,199 --> 01:19:42,479
they coached her. It's between Ron
SmackDown. She decided to go SmackDown because

1227
01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:45,039
we'll give you a tell me,
Like there's fun things you could do,

1228
01:19:45,159 --> 01:19:46,239
but it's tough. Like I said, you can't do shake up because you

1229
01:19:46,239 --> 01:19:49,560
want to do the draft. You
can't draft from NXT because that w one

1230
01:19:49,680 --> 01:19:54,399
pull in the same ratings. So
I feel that they should somehow just kind

1231
01:19:54,399 --> 01:19:58,880
of cheat and do the old ways
where it's a draft but you do some

1232
01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:02,199
shake up. And the other thing
is it's like it hurts k Fabe because

1233
01:20:02,399 --> 01:20:08,880
my brain breaks of like how can
you draft six superstars with the LWO but

1234
01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:12,000
then you just draft one here,
Like as a general manager, why wouldn't

1235
01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:15,359
you just draft all the stables and
just have a stacked roster? You know,

1236
01:20:15,720 --> 01:20:17,840
why would you not? They never
at any point said, hey,

1237
01:20:18,359 --> 01:20:24,560
NXT people, NXT champions are off
limits. Why would no one draft Trick

1238
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:28,239
Williams? Why Like, yeah,
he's so right now the woof that trick

1239
01:20:28,279 --> 01:20:31,960
the camera move like there's k fab
wise I could not look at anybody because

1240
01:20:32,039 --> 01:20:35,359
like, technically he is the NXT
champion. He is the best on that

1241
01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:39,640
ross. Right, how is a
GM? Why would you not draft a

1242
01:20:39,680 --> 01:20:43,920
guy that's the best in the roster
and also very popular? Like that's the

1243
01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:47,880
problem when you make the draft sports
like, there becomes issues and they just

1244
01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:51,119
make them non believable and it sucks. Also when the draft only has twenty

1245
01:20:51,159 --> 01:20:55,600
minutes wrestling, it's like, well, the draft stuff is exciting, and

1246
01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:59,279
all I got is Cody versus Carmelo, which was fine. I do think

1247
01:21:00,159 --> 01:21:02,239
even on the AJ match, he
did like a backflip. Cody's gotta be

1248
01:21:02,279 --> 01:21:05,800
really careful these cutters, man,
he's getting way too Like I'm at the

1249
01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:10,319
point where maybe he should just bust
them out every once in a while because

1250
01:21:10,800 --> 01:21:13,880
he's missing him more than he's hitting
him, and he keeps landing on that

1251
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:17,119
shoulder. And maybe he did do
a solid job, but my life lashed

1252
01:21:17,119 --> 01:21:20,680
before my eyes of man, the
Roman fans are never gonna let this man

1253
01:21:20,720 --> 01:21:24,479
live it down. Three weeks in
this title rain and he like needs soldiers

1254
01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:28,439
tree Like, I think he should
leave the Cody cutter for PPV matches.

1255
01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:31,159
Stop doing it weekly he's he's missing
it too much or the people aren't taking

1256
01:21:31,199 --> 01:21:35,560
it right. You know, Yeah, I agree, it needs to go

1257
01:21:35,720 --> 01:21:42,039
back to being a big moment.
He busted it out and not just you

1258
01:21:42,079 --> 01:21:46,920
know every matchress sometimes twice in a
not osprey because yeah, it's it's not

1259
01:21:47,239 --> 01:21:51,520
it's not there for you, like
you know it it works for who it

1260
01:21:51,560 --> 01:21:56,239
works for, but for trying to
take it. And then if people aren't

1261
01:21:56,279 --> 01:21:59,359
taking it right and you're putting yourself
at risk, you're a champion. We

1262
01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:02,600
need you to be leading the way. It's just not what we need for

1263
01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:06,720
you. Uh. Going back to
the draft, I would like to see

1264
01:22:08,319 --> 01:22:13,800
if NXT is eligible to be drafted. I would like to see NXT get

1265
01:22:13,920 --> 01:22:19,319
one draft pick each night. That
is a way to send somebody back down

1266
01:22:19,840 --> 01:22:23,439
to Yeah, because that didn't happen. Yeah, you're right, because that

1267
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:26,680
was that was the whole rumor they're
becoming a third brand, and we were

1268
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:30,720
like, oh, Timichael, there
Knockamura and they didn't. They're still just

1269
01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:32,439
up, so which is fine,
but it's like, if you're gonna make

1270
01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:35,439
it the third brand, you need
somebody like a cord there, right,

1271
01:22:35,560 --> 01:22:40,600
But yeah, I could see that
that would be a good way to bring

1272
01:22:40,720 --> 01:22:44,560
somebody down who wants to go down
who because most of the people that they

1273
01:22:44,600 --> 01:22:49,920
do send back down to NXT are
good people who just want more time,

1274
01:22:50,039 --> 01:22:55,439
more storylines. They're like, hey, I'm not doing anything. Like if

1275
01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:59,359
someone were to draft a knock Amra
back down to NXC, I'd be like,

1276
01:22:59,479 --> 01:23:02,319
that makes sense. I could see
that. And then he goes down

1277
01:23:02,359 --> 01:23:05,039
and he looks strong in the next
t he's doing something, and then he

1278
01:23:05,359 --> 01:23:10,159
doesn't have to leave Florida, which
I know would be ideal for him.

1279
01:23:10,159 --> 01:23:13,560
He gets to serve any time he
wants. It's a win win, like,

1280
01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:15,840
so I could see that. I
would, Yeah, if you're gonna

1281
01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:17,600
third brand them, if you're gonna
make them someone that we can steal from,

1282
01:23:18,399 --> 01:23:24,840
give them a pick a Knight and
let them take one person from each

1283
01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:33,079
brand as a result and say no
champions. Yeah, two roads. It

1284
01:23:33,279 --> 01:23:40,479
just like you said, some things
about it just do not make sense with

1285
01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:45,079
it, Like you can't seriously tell
me that Raw is taking a cure Tazala

1286
01:23:45,399 --> 01:23:51,079
over Trick Williams or some of these
and the n XT like does not make

1287
01:23:51,159 --> 01:23:54,880
sense. The other suggestion I would
have for the draft, it might get

1288
01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:57,880
to like, oh, there's too
much rules to fall, but I would

1289
01:23:57,920 --> 01:24:00,560
do something as like each brand and
you could do rawl one nights, Back

1290
01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:04,159
Town whatever, but each brand gets
one male superstar, one female superstar,

1291
01:24:04,359 --> 01:24:09,039
one male tag, female tag,
one faction, and an n XT person

1292
01:24:09,239 --> 01:24:12,000
and that's where it's like, that's
where you go, Okay, they wouldn't

1293
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:13,840
go Ben asked anyone. You're like, yeah, why wouldn't you just get

1294
01:24:13,960 --> 01:24:15,399
trick dragging off bronze, Like no, you get one from an XT.

1295
01:24:15,640 --> 01:24:18,479
Like you could even do one male
or female, right, you get one

1296
01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:21,720
male, one female. If you're
not gonna do the college route there,

1297
01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:25,279
you get one tag team. So
the same thing, why wouldn't I just

1298
01:24:25,279 --> 01:24:28,640
pick I'm gonna pick the bloodline,
I'm gonna pick LWO, I'm gonna pick

1299
01:24:28,680 --> 01:24:31,319
the new Like, why would I
not just pick every faction and just have

1300
01:24:31,439 --> 01:24:35,279
all like because then I'm getting COVID
Xavier, I'm getting Solo, I'm getting

1301
01:24:35,279 --> 01:24:40,479
this. I'm getting like the fact
that like the factions and even the Carlito

1302
01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:44,359
thing that was BS, he's always
still with the lw' right, Like no,

1303
01:24:44,520 --> 01:24:47,840
man, he just he's just caught
trying to murder. Like you just

1304
01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:51,079
want it so the few can continue. Like. That's where it becomes too

1305
01:24:53,439 --> 01:24:56,199
like like they try to make it
like, oh, of course everyone knows

1306
01:24:56,239 --> 01:24:59,000
it's scripted, but they want you
to make it feel like it's real.

1307
01:24:59,319 --> 01:25:02,119
That's what you make the gms feel
like idiots and okay, they're just actors

1308
01:25:02,119 --> 01:25:05,880
and characters. Now you you lose
the realism within the world of what these

1309
01:25:05,960 --> 01:25:10,560
gms would do. You know,
yeah, like tzow over Trick Williams,

1310
01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:15,399
like who who's doing this? It
would be more like a fantasy football draft

1311
01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:18,760
where you get certain slots, you
know, so I can't exil up my

1312
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:23,560
entire team with quarterbacks. I need
a quarterback two running backs who aren't like

1313
01:25:24,199 --> 01:25:28,239
so it's the exact same thing.
This is what you can draft, fill

1314
01:25:28,319 --> 01:25:32,159
up those spots. And then once
that's there, then you you start looking

1315
01:25:32,159 --> 01:25:36,159
at a brand like, oh,
they have to draft a faction now because

1316
01:25:36,159 --> 01:25:39,800
they've already filled up. There are
other spots. So which faction is it

1317
01:25:39,840 --> 01:25:43,960
gonna be? That gives it some
more intrigue. Yeah, so we'll see,

1318
01:25:44,039 --> 01:25:45,760
hope. I think I think the
good thing with Triple H and company

1319
01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:49,239
they do listen to critiques and they
change it up so I think that next

1320
01:25:49,279 --> 01:25:54,800
year they will either they'll be no
draft or they will make it some adjustments

1321
01:25:54,840 --> 01:25:58,119
to you know, because it did
poperating. But I think, I don't

1322
01:25:58,159 --> 01:26:00,880
know if it's gonna people next you
will have that same excitement. I think

1323
01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:03,840
they'll make some adjustments. So yeah, uh yeah, so fun when a

1324
01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:06,479
fine we got aw and then will
tell about our matches quickly, but so

1325
01:26:06,560 --> 01:26:11,239
aw. This past month we had
Dynasty, which is overall was you know,

1326
01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:14,640
hailed as a really good show for
them. They needed that other than

1327
01:26:14,720 --> 01:26:17,720
maybe some people having the h the
jerich we ftw moments we talked about.

1328
01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:23,920
But what has been since Dynasty till
now? What has been your thoughts and

1329
01:26:23,960 --> 01:26:27,199
aid to do? Because we left
since then, we had talked about they

1330
01:26:27,239 --> 01:26:29,439
were doing the footage, and they
had showed the footage and we talked a

1331
01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:31,880
little bit about that and stuff.
But you know, they've I think kind

1332
01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:34,199
of had a bit of mixed bag
where the Silvers are great matches, but

1333
01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:39,640
the Jack Perry storyline Tony Kahn,
that's very divided where some people think this

1334
01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:43,079
is great or some people think it's
you know, it's just Carney. And

1335
01:26:43,119 --> 01:26:45,000
even though every promotion's done it,
they're going down the bad route. So

1336
01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:50,279
since Dynasty to now, where are
you with AW? As far as the

1337
01:26:50,359 --> 01:26:56,319
past month and then especially with the
the Elite takeover storyline? How's how's the

1338
01:26:56,520 --> 01:27:00,159
month of April been for the Challenger
bround as t K with it. With

1339
01:27:00,319 --> 01:27:05,960
the exception of anything involving Chris Jericho, AW has been putting on some great

1340
01:27:06,079 --> 01:27:12,000
matches and some great storylines. Again, this this Jericho vortex thing, and

1341
01:27:12,319 --> 01:27:16,000
I do feel part of it is
him leaning into it. I think he's

1342
01:27:16,079 --> 01:27:19,600
leaning into it too much, and
it's just I don't want to see it.

1343
01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:24,119
I don't want to see you squashing
guys. And even though you're leaning

1344
01:27:24,159 --> 01:27:28,800
into a joke, you're still squashing
guys that don't need to be your You're

1345
01:27:28,840 --> 01:27:32,199
beating people that don't need to be
beat right now. But overall, they've

1346
01:27:32,359 --> 01:27:39,119
had better matches. When it comes
to Tony Kahan himself, I thought it

1347
01:27:39,239 --> 01:27:43,159
was hilarious and I love the fact
that he wore the neck brace to the

1348
01:27:43,399 --> 01:27:47,239
NFL Draft. I just wish he
would have kept his mouth shut, Like

1349
01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:53,199
when you're going on TV and they're
asking you about the NFL Draft, Yeah,

1350
01:27:53,319 --> 01:27:58,479
keep the collar on, you know, protect Kfe Brother. But when

1351
01:27:58,560 --> 01:28:01,159
it comes to some of the other
stuff he was saying to try and big

1352
01:28:01,279 --> 01:28:06,800
up the wrestling product, I'm like, you're not. You're not making wrestling

1353
01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:13,399
as a whole. Look that appealing
to the outside universe. When you start

1354
01:28:13,479 --> 01:28:17,680
comparing people to Harvey Weinstein and things
like that, that doesn't make people want

1355
01:28:17,720 --> 01:28:21,520
to run to your product. That
makes people want to run away from wrestling.

1356
01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:27,880
Yeah. So other than that,
I'm excited to see where things go

1357
01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:35,359
with the Elite and with everything in
their takeover. I thought that what just

1358
01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:41,960
happened between Omega and Okada and the
writing off of Omega for a while.

1359
01:28:42,479 --> 01:28:45,720
As much as I love Omega and
I want to see more of him,

1360
01:28:45,800 --> 01:28:49,479
I'm praying that he comes back.
This was good. This was a good

1361
01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:54,720
way, though, to stop the
questions for a while, stop the wendsy

1362
01:28:54,800 --> 01:28:57,800
coming back. What you wrote him
off, You bought yourself a couple of

1363
01:28:57,840 --> 01:29:01,119
months for him to figure out it's
gonna go surgery, which rot he's gonna

1364
01:29:01,159 --> 01:29:06,319
take. Yeah, I keep seeing
people book him and Omega Orcado four for

1365
01:29:06,359 --> 01:29:10,560
Wimbley. I wouldn't get that far. I know that, honestly, that

1366
01:29:10,560 --> 01:29:12,560
would be the goal, But I
keep seeing like, oh, this isn't

1367
01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:15,520
Like no, Like, I'm sure
they would like that, but I'm not.

1368
01:29:15,159 --> 01:29:18,359
I'm not convincing myself that's happening right
now. I saw a lot of

1369
01:29:18,439 --> 01:29:21,359
that after I was like, no, I think this was to give them

1370
01:29:21,439 --> 01:29:25,560
some rooms. So like, if
Omega's gone for like a year, you

1371
01:29:25,720 --> 01:29:29,600
know why you know, Yeah,
I'm thinking double or nothing next year,

1372
01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:31,760
Like, yeah, he's gonna be
Yeah, he's gonna be out for a

1373
01:29:31,840 --> 01:29:34,680
while and then return in enough time
to say, hey, a year ago,

1374
01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:38,600
you put me on the shelf with
this. Now I'm back. Like,

1375
01:29:39,119 --> 01:29:41,720
let that man have have his time
to heal up, and I think

1376
01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:45,800
this was a perfect time to give
him that opportunity to heal up. I

1377
01:29:46,399 --> 01:29:50,199
think, uh, I'm excited to
see what Osprey does. I know a

1378
01:29:50,239 --> 01:29:55,279
lot of people are upset that he's
not going for the world title right now.

1379
01:29:55,960 --> 01:30:00,279
I think it's a great idea because
you just gave Swerve, who is

1380
01:30:00,359 --> 01:30:04,840
steal red Hot the title. Let
that man cook, let Osprey do his

1381
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:13,000
thing, Give Osprey the secondary title
because it's not really doing anything right now.

1382
01:30:15,279 --> 01:30:18,000
Let him be over there, let
him build that back up to prominence,

1383
01:30:18,399 --> 01:30:24,199
and then let Swerve do what he's
doing with the world title. They

1384
01:30:24,239 --> 01:30:28,199
don't need to go against each other. Just now, let's Swerve have his

1385
01:30:28,439 --> 01:30:31,279
moment and let Osprey have his moment. You don't need to hot shot both

1386
01:30:31,319 --> 01:30:35,479
of them against each other. And
because they're probably gonna do Wimbley again next

1387
01:30:35,560 --> 01:30:39,560
year, because they love doing events
the same stop, that's where you can

1388
01:30:39,880 --> 01:30:44,960
sell that. Because I think Spray
winning the world title wide Wimbley would blow

1389
01:30:45,319 --> 01:30:49,319
the roof off the already roofless place. Say that for next year right now,

1390
01:30:49,359 --> 01:30:53,880
it's gonna definitely be lower. He's
not gonna be the whatever eighty thousand

1391
01:30:53,960 --> 01:30:58,399
it was or whatever it was last
year. I think they're more round round

1392
01:30:58,479 --> 01:31:00,319
fifty. I think once they get
some more matches of the car, I

1393
01:31:00,359 --> 01:31:03,920
think they could maybe get to like
a fifty five to sixty, depending on

1394
01:31:04,079 --> 01:31:08,039
how good those matches are. The
first year, of course, had like

1395
01:31:08,159 --> 01:31:12,279
a not nostalgia, but just had
like a specialty thing to it, right

1396
01:31:12,279 --> 01:31:15,319
because the first time wrestling down Wimbley
in a long time, and of course

1397
01:31:15,399 --> 01:31:16,960
given me something watchmen, Hey,
this isn't for me. It's not ww

1398
01:31:17,479 --> 01:31:21,199
you know, like John Moxley and
the straw the you know, sticks in

1399
01:31:21,199 --> 01:31:24,399
the head. That's gonna turn some
people off, right, But I think

1400
01:31:24,439 --> 01:31:28,479
you can save that for the the
Wimbley after I'm I'm with You, where

1401
01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:31,079
I think it would have been a
hot shot. I think that title needs

1402
01:31:31,119 --> 01:31:34,760
it because much like everything with the
Devil storyline, I thought Roddy at least

1403
01:31:34,880 --> 01:31:39,399
was gonna put on some really good
matches. But they have just like secluded

1404
01:31:39,439 --> 01:31:42,840
my guy to like rampage to first, like people, you know he's gonna

1405
01:31:42,920 --> 01:31:45,720
destroy, Like it's very odd what
that because Roddy can go, he can

1406
01:31:45,840 --> 01:31:48,800
put on he could put on a
five star if you put give him the

1407
01:31:48,840 --> 01:31:51,520
right guy, right, So it's
I thought they were gonna give him some

1408
01:31:51,680 --> 01:31:56,960
It's just like they didn't want him
to beat top guys, which I thought

1409
01:31:57,079 --> 01:32:00,439
that's what they had Orange Cassidy do
they had Moxley do with that type,

1410
01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:02,479
Like it's like Ky, he beat
Kyle, he's beaten Kyle before and it

1411
01:32:02,600 --> 01:32:05,439
was a good match, but like, let him beat some of your bigger

1412
01:32:05,560 --> 01:32:08,840
stars. But I felt like they
didn't want like, oh well, Roddy's

1413
01:32:08,880 --> 01:32:13,560
still at the beatire. We don't
want him to beat like a even I

1414
01:32:13,600 --> 01:32:16,039
don't know, like a Claudio even
or someone like that. It was people

1415
01:32:16,079 --> 01:32:19,279
that, like you know, aren't
gonna win, so again they just gotta

1416
01:32:19,279 --> 01:32:24,760
get MGF back beat Adam Cole and
then I'm happy Adam Cole's walking. That's

1417
01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:29,439
a good sign. Like I'm like
the Devil Group would be much better United

1418
01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:32,479
Kingdom if Cole was around because he
can talk and do stuff. But they

1419
01:32:32,560 --> 01:32:35,199
need to an MGF same thing.
Who knows when he gets back. But

1420
01:32:35,239 --> 01:32:40,640
I'm with you. Where ospray when
they're national title? Who do you pair

1421
01:32:40,720 --> 01:32:43,560
him up with? Then for Wimbley
if he wins it here, who's the

1422
01:32:43,640 --> 01:32:51,479
defense? Oh that's a good one, so I would have him hopefully.

1423
01:32:53,039 --> 01:32:55,560
Okay. Also, before you go, it's rumored of the max is sixty

1424
01:32:55,600 --> 01:32:58,159
because the Swift concert. So there
you go. Well, if they can

1425
01:32:58,199 --> 01:33:00,960
get to fifty out of sixth like
that, like that's not like again,

1426
01:33:01,039 --> 01:33:03,960
people are gonna spend all the time
at adivs in trouble. Their ratings went

1427
01:33:04,039 --> 01:33:09,199
up this week. They're even like
Winnipeg this week sucked for a crowd.

1428
01:33:09,680 --> 01:33:12,920
They're quiet other than Omengo, but
they're still like six thousand, like they're

1429
01:33:12,960 --> 01:33:15,560
still like they've been having some better
shows so it's ebbs and flows. But

1430
01:33:15,640 --> 01:33:17,520
yeah, so if he beats Roddy, sorry I cut you off, who

1431
01:33:17,560 --> 01:33:21,399
would who would you have the big
match? Let's not do Jericho rematch.

1432
01:33:21,520 --> 01:33:29,279
Let's not do that. Malachi Black
rebuilt them up because Malachi, given his

1433
01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:31,720
history and his start, he is
gonna go over a huge in a UK

1434
01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:38,359
crowd. You got two UK boys
going at it. Let them go and

1435
01:33:38,640 --> 01:33:43,760
let them have the crowd on fire
because the crowd will be just great.

1436
01:33:44,039 --> 01:33:46,359
What if he beats Edge though,
and he's T and T they might avoid

1437
01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:51,079
that though, right like a the
two titles, I don't know if he's

1438
01:33:51,199 --> 01:33:57,520
going to beat Edge. I feel
like something will happen that will keep Edge

1439
01:33:57,640 --> 01:34:01,119
with the title just for a little
bit longer. I don't see him beating

1440
01:34:01,319 --> 01:34:05,840
Edge. If he does, then
okay, we can switch to somebody else.

1441
01:34:05,880 --> 01:34:12,840
There's other people that Osprey can take
on and look strong against. If

1442
01:34:12,920 --> 01:34:18,119
you get a healthy Penta or Ray
Phoenix, if they're healthy, they will

1443
01:34:18,239 --> 01:34:26,640
both be great against him. Uh. Pac would be another one that would

1444
01:34:26,840 --> 01:34:30,840
send people just screaming. I think
that. I think that's the bandwagon I'm

1445
01:34:31,239 --> 01:34:34,840
I would be on like heat Pawk
back up as a heel too because he's

1446
01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:39,840
more babyface, but heat him back
up. Pawk and Osprey at Wimbley would

1447
01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:44,199
be that'd be a moment that'd be
Brett wasn't British, of course, but

1448
01:34:44,279 --> 01:34:46,479
that I feel like that could be
like Brett Bulldog where it's like this really

1449
01:34:46,600 --> 01:34:50,800
special moment. It's like you can't
adopted Brett right because he's Canadians and like

1450
01:34:51,079 --> 01:34:56,119
he was. But that's that's a
good one, Okay. I'm just looking

1451
01:34:56,119 --> 01:34:58,920
at the Ross right now. Joe
is always an option because, like you

1452
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:01,399
know, they'll of Joe a big
batch. I think Penta would happen,

1453
01:35:01,439 --> 01:35:04,199
but I don't know if at Wimbley, I think they'll give it to one

1454
01:35:04,199 --> 01:35:09,079
of the bigger stars. I wish
it'd be too much close to New Japan,

1455
01:35:09,239 --> 01:35:11,680
But if o'canda didn't have that other
title, I feel like they could

1456
01:35:11,680 --> 01:35:15,279
have done that too, ocad on
him. They were hinting at Jay White

1457
01:35:15,600 --> 01:35:19,319
as well in that Battle Royal or
that casino. Uh it was was that

1458
01:35:19,359 --> 01:35:27,119
a casino? Gosh? What was
the match? I can't remember the name

1459
01:35:27,119 --> 01:35:30,319
of it, but I really enjoyed
that match when they had That's how Ospray

1460
01:35:30,359 --> 01:35:33,279
got the win. Where it's like
it was like a Battle Royal or Royal

1461
01:35:33,319 --> 01:35:36,840
rumble, but it's like guys kept
coming in. As to a good point,

1462
01:35:38,279 --> 01:35:41,560
the casino battle Royal is what they
call it. Oh is it just

1463
01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:44,319
bat Royal? Okay? Even though
it's by Pinfall Casino Gaunt, it was

1464
01:35:44,319 --> 01:35:45,760
a gauntlet match this time around.
Yeah, and that was by pen and

1465
01:35:45,840 --> 01:35:49,840
I really like that. Like that's
the one thing. You know, Malacky

1466
01:35:49,920 --> 01:35:54,000
isn't losing. That's true. We'll
see he should he should be losing to

1467
01:35:54,319 --> 01:35:58,640
well. I guess we'll find about
Copland. But too bad Cole wasn't healthy

1468
01:35:58,720 --> 01:36:01,319
too Ospring Cole would be another really
good one because I feel like you could

1469
01:36:01,319 --> 01:36:05,520
have some fun dynamic there. But
uh yeah, I'm interested. Same thing

1470
01:36:05,560 --> 01:36:10,520
with Swerve, Like I'm interested in
who they pair Swerve up with. I

1471
01:36:10,600 --> 01:36:13,760
think I do agree with people they
might run Swerve and hang men back there

1472
01:36:13,800 --> 01:36:16,439
because that's such a blood feud.
They could have heat hangs. Yeah,

1473
01:36:16,520 --> 01:36:20,520
they could heat hangman up and just
like I think that's the route you go.

1474
01:36:21,239 --> 01:36:24,680
And then yeah, Ospray and somebody, you don't you gonna get a

1475
01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:27,520
match? I think you're just hell
you could even you know what I can

1476
01:36:27,600 --> 01:36:30,319
see them even doing Ospray and Adam
Copeland there, like, I like,

1477
01:36:30,439 --> 01:36:32,079
I wouldn't put it past them because
that's like a big dream match, right

1478
01:36:32,119 --> 01:36:36,239
And Adam keeps saying that he wants
to work well, so why not Wimbley.

1479
01:36:36,560 --> 01:36:41,720
Maybe that's the one time because poor
Adam Copeland, man, he wants

1480
01:36:41,800 --> 01:36:45,159
to be a heel. He tried
to do in the crowd did not want

1481
01:36:45,199 --> 01:36:46,359
it, and I said that at
the time. It happens like, dude,

1482
01:36:47,079 --> 01:36:49,840
you were gone for seven years.
We're never gonna boo you. You're

1483
01:36:49,840 --> 01:36:53,199
the one of a fit. We're
never gonna be you. But in Wimbley,

1484
01:36:53,840 --> 01:36:56,479
that could be the time where he
could play up those heelisms. He

1485
01:36:56,560 --> 01:36:59,399
could like that because that crowd'sn't gonna
be going for him. It's gonna be

1486
01:36:59,439 --> 01:37:02,560
going for Oscar. So he could, like fornight, be the real Radar

1487
01:37:02,720 --> 01:37:06,680
superstar and there could be some fun
there. I don't need to be Christian

1488
01:37:06,680 --> 01:37:11,199
because he's gonna lose the Swerve,
and I think that's a really fun matchup

1489
01:37:11,239 --> 01:37:15,239
Swerve and Christian. I think Christian
always delivers. You know, he's gonna

1490
01:37:15,279 --> 01:37:18,840
cut some really good promos. You
know, Christian's gonna find somebody that's Densworth's

1491
01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:23,439
family and he's gonna go after him. And I completely forgot. Like again,

1492
01:37:23,439 --> 01:37:26,000
when people say they don't tell stories, sometimes like aw, I think

1493
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:29,680
they're doing a better job of it
lately. To tie it back and it's

1494
01:37:29,720 --> 01:37:32,159
perfect. A Swerve lately has been
hey, I've done some bad things and

1495
01:37:32,239 --> 01:37:34,439
I got to, you know,
change my ways. He was cheating less

1496
01:37:34,960 --> 01:37:38,920
for them to tie it back to
hey, six months ago, Swerve to

1497
01:37:39,079 --> 01:37:42,960
like get under someone's skin, broke
into a guy's gym and just messed him

1498
01:37:43,039 --> 01:37:45,479
up. And for Christian to be
like, hey, here's like here's your

1499
01:37:45,479 --> 01:37:49,199
commat, here's penance for it.
It's like, oh, this is perfect,

1500
01:37:49,439 --> 01:37:53,039
Like this is great. So I
think they have like a good story

1501
01:37:53,119 --> 01:37:57,439
there Nick Wayne, and people can
bump for like Swerve can fight Nick Wayne

1502
01:37:57,640 --> 01:38:01,680
and uh, he'll switch Like there's
some like heyres for in a fight.

1503
01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:05,159
So I like that, where are
you now? On? We had Jack

1504
01:38:05,239 --> 01:38:09,319
Perry come back. We had a
beat up TK, which be like,

1505
01:38:09,359 --> 01:38:12,600
oh my god, I took a
bad bump. Everyone, please go look

1506
01:38:12,600 --> 01:38:16,079
at visit Man's first stunner. Please
go. Like the general, these people

1507
01:38:16,239 --> 01:38:19,760
don't take good bumps, Like it's
not like this is history, but like

1508
01:38:19,880 --> 01:38:23,560
we're doing a you know, of
course, Bishop, ye know, we're

1509
01:38:23,560 --> 01:38:27,119
doing like a very similar nWo takeover
by you got the new Elite. They

1510
01:38:27,159 --> 01:38:31,800
took out TK. He can't travel, doesn't look like Entance and new Terest

1511
01:38:31,840 --> 01:38:35,680
doesn't look like Kenny's gonna be the
new GM, so it'll be someone else.

1512
01:38:35,720 --> 01:38:41,079
But where where are you so far
on the elite takeover storyline? The

1513
01:38:41,199 --> 01:38:45,119
pro or con or somewhere in the
middle. Right now, I'm pro.

1514
01:38:45,239 --> 01:38:47,800
I'm want to see where it goes. But right now I'm pro because I

1515
01:38:48,479 --> 01:38:54,600
liked their heel stuff, and I
like their heel stuff because it's opposite of

1516
01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:58,479
the heel stuff that I'm used to. I loved the Young Bucks in New

1517
01:38:58,600 --> 01:39:03,159
Japan. I was a huge Bullet
Club fan and so, but they were

1518
01:39:03,239 --> 01:39:11,720
more childish heels. Yeah we're here, pricks, Yeah we're here. They're

1519
01:39:11,800 --> 01:39:16,359
more methodical heels, and I like
it. I like the whole them setting

1520
01:39:16,399 --> 01:39:21,199
themselves up to be the guys who
need to be taken down, Like who's

1521
01:39:21,319 --> 01:39:28,159
going to rally to take down the
elite? And as they're adding people and

1522
01:39:28,199 --> 01:39:30,560
they're adding Jack Perry and I have
a feeling they're going to add one or

1523
01:39:30,600 --> 01:39:35,319
two more because if Bullet Club has
taught me anything, there's never enough members.

1524
01:39:38,199 --> 01:39:45,359
Then who's going to be the force
that takes down this group. That

1525
01:39:45,520 --> 01:39:50,119
being said, though there's not a
lot of strong factions in ae W that

1526
01:39:50,359 --> 01:39:55,800
can Most of their factions are heel
factions. You've got Bullet Club Gold,

1527
01:39:55,960 --> 01:40:00,119
You've got the don Kallis family,
which to this day does not make make

1528
01:40:00,239 --> 01:40:02,199
sense to me. Yeah, and
Shadow Will Hobbs. That sucks. He

1529
01:40:02,279 --> 01:40:04,640
got he's gonna durw on his knee
and he's out for a while. I

1530
01:40:04,720 --> 01:40:08,119
knew it when I watch that match, because it's like you can tell not

1531
01:40:08,199 --> 01:40:10,279
all the times, some are great, but like you tell the way he

1532
01:40:10,359 --> 01:40:13,319
couldn't put pressure on that knee,
it's like, oh, my man's fucked

1533
01:40:13,399 --> 01:40:15,640
up, and that that sucks.
So yeah, But and but people around

1534
01:40:15,680 --> 01:40:20,520
don Kallis get injured. It keeps
happening, So I do I do feel

1535
01:40:20,600 --> 01:40:25,239
bad for the don Kallis family.
Let's see, we've got House of Black

1536
01:40:25,600 --> 01:40:33,239
every most of the factions are heel
factions. So there's one though, Blackpool

1537
01:40:33,319 --> 01:40:40,840
Combat that could be the all conquering
and I could see you do it in

1538
01:40:40,920 --> 01:40:46,600
a situation where they're all conquering,
but not because hey, we want to

1539
01:40:46,640 --> 01:40:50,520
take back a a W because it's
what's right. It's just as simple we

1540
01:40:50,680 --> 01:40:56,840
don't like you yeah. And I
could see Daniel Brian leading the we don't

1541
01:40:57,079 --> 01:41:00,159
like you yeah, And you can
also do the like we're not taking back

1542
01:41:00,199 --> 01:41:04,960
AW, but were what AW like
represents like the hard nos wrestling, Like

1543
01:41:05,079 --> 01:41:09,720
it's not about taking over the entrance
or the opening. It's not about the

1544
01:41:09,760 --> 01:41:12,800
pirate. It's like, we're here
to wrestle. And like most people think,

1545
01:41:12,880 --> 01:41:15,439
like John mox is like the ace
of AW, so you can kind

1546
01:41:15,439 --> 01:41:18,279
of have him there. So I
I think that's the route. I think

1547
01:41:18,319 --> 01:41:20,920
there's I don't know how we do, but I think one way or another,

1548
01:41:21,039 --> 01:41:25,399
this is how we get Edge and
Christian back together to fight the Bucks.

1549
01:41:25,760 --> 01:41:28,840
So I don't know if you maybe
have Edge because like Edge did do

1550
01:41:28,960 --> 01:41:32,479
that raw ra AW speech, you
could have him start something up like imagine

1551
01:41:32,880 --> 01:41:39,000
like him Christian Garcia, like you
can have Copeland like he could be a

1552
01:41:39,079 --> 01:41:42,079
good leader for that and that gets
them diverse the Bucks. That gets them

1553
01:41:42,119 --> 01:41:45,760
versus Okada, that gets the diverse, like he didn't have Jack Parr in

1554
01:41:45,800 --> 01:41:48,800
his list, but still like they
can work together, so Cop could do

1555
01:41:48,880 --> 01:41:55,439
something. Here's how I can see
you put Cizarro versus Okada for that Continental

1556
01:41:55,560 --> 01:42:00,319
Championship. The elite cheat, they
come out and then they just start trying

1557
01:42:00,359 --> 01:42:10,159
to take out c Sorrow and or
Claudio. So that sets up the Blackpool

1558
01:42:10,199 --> 01:42:15,880
Combat Club versus the Elite, and
that gives you Claudio's reason for being in

1559
01:42:15,920 --> 01:42:17,600
there. Hey, I can out
wrestle you. I know I can out

1560
01:42:17,640 --> 01:42:21,159
wrestle you. You had to cheat
to win. Yeah, Mox is in

1561
01:42:21,239 --> 01:42:26,760
there because Mox likes to fight and
Mox can do his whole I've been the

1562
01:42:26,880 --> 01:42:30,199
heart of ae W. When you
guys were jacking around, when you were

1563
01:42:30,359 --> 01:42:35,680
off trying to play EVP, I
was here holding it down. I'm the

1564
01:42:35,800 --> 01:42:43,319
one. I'm the one who conquered
the person you couldn't take down with an

1565
01:42:43,399 --> 01:42:45,960
illusion to see him punk without having
to mention see him punk, and then

1566
01:42:47,279 --> 01:42:54,840
uh Daniel Brian uh or Brian Danielson
can just simply say I don't like you,

1567
01:42:55,399 --> 01:42:59,800
I don't like Yo Kata, I
don't like Q Bucks. I can

1568
01:43:00,199 --> 01:43:02,720
wrestling you. I am better than
you. Everyone knows I'm better than you

1569
01:43:02,920 --> 01:43:08,319
and I'm about to prove you can't
beat me. And that is a perfect

1570
01:43:08,359 --> 01:43:13,600
way to set up that group.
You don't need to add one more person.

1571
01:43:14,319 --> 01:43:17,319
I don't know what the status is
on Wheeler Da right now. I

1572
01:43:17,439 --> 01:43:19,960
know he was hurt for a minute. I don't know how soon he's gonna

1573
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:25,640
come back. But he can be
the fourth to Jack Perry, and that

1574
01:43:25,800 --> 01:43:30,399
could be your big faction versus big
faction. Well you get always and to

1575
01:43:30,520 --> 01:43:32,159
your point too, they might just
add more people, so you could need

1576
01:43:32,239 --> 01:43:36,159
more people. The two people I
already mentioned him, but is Garcia because

1577
01:43:36,199 --> 01:43:39,840
they already were trying to maybe recruit
him once right, and this could be

1578
01:43:39,880 --> 01:43:44,359
where he finally joins the BCC.
Him and you to put their differences aside,

1579
01:43:44,399 --> 01:43:46,520
because as much as they're fined,
you're the things. I would not

1580
01:43:46,840 --> 01:43:54,479
mind Bull Club Goal joining the elite
and having shit because like they've the same

1581
01:43:54,520 --> 01:43:58,359
way that Cody and AG didn't touch
enough on the ball club stuff, they've

1582
01:43:58,439 --> 01:44:00,680
not touched enough on the Bull Clets
stuff. With Jay White. I thought

1583
01:44:00,720 --> 01:44:03,800
for sure when j White got there
and Kenny was healthy, they're gonna do

1584
01:44:03,920 --> 01:44:08,880
all running back us like they had
them attack Kenny backstage. I felt like

1585
01:44:09,319 --> 01:44:12,640
it was very minor and I felt
like you could really pull up the hey,

1586
01:44:13,319 --> 01:44:16,359
like the leadership went from Kenny to
j you know like that, like

1587
01:44:16,800 --> 01:44:19,600
there was like it was Tomatama for
like a couple months, but it didn't

1588
01:44:19,640 --> 01:44:24,560
it didn't really work out like it
was fine, yeah, bally right.

1589
01:44:24,600 --> 01:44:28,279
It went from Kenny to Cody for
a bit, back to Kenny to Talma

1590
01:44:28,399 --> 01:44:30,039
for like a little bit, and
then Jay. Like there was so much

1591
01:44:30,039 --> 01:44:33,039
story there. So I think I
would like if Jay got back into the

1592
01:44:33,079 --> 01:44:36,520
Elite Bowl Club stuff to hit on
the history, there's new Japan stuff.

1593
01:44:36,720 --> 01:44:41,560
I think the other person you could
always add that equation is Eddie Kingston because

1594
01:44:41,800 --> 01:44:45,399
he's Moxley's bff and he earned Brian's
respect, right, so he's another person

1595
01:44:45,479 --> 01:44:49,840
and he's another like heart of a
w guy. He's the I broke my

1596
01:44:49,920 --> 01:44:54,800
bones here, I you know,
I'll do anything for this company. Technically,

1597
01:44:54,920 --> 01:44:58,159
another guy you could add is like
a Darby when he's healthy, because

1598
01:44:58,199 --> 01:45:00,680
like Darby said, like he's never
gonna work anyone. And also, if

1599
01:45:00,720 --> 01:45:04,279
you do my equation of adding the
bowl called gold, they're the ones that

1600
01:45:04,359 --> 01:45:09,079
took Darby out right, so you
could so there is you could do something.

1601
01:45:09,159 --> 01:45:11,520
So and that's where I'm with you, Like I'm positive right now,

1602
01:45:12,039 --> 01:45:15,479
I'm gonna let it play out.
The attack the GM thing has been done

1603
01:45:15,600 --> 01:45:18,720
many times when people say they're copping
WWE, everybody. WW was not even

1604
01:45:18,760 --> 01:45:21,880
the first one to do it.
It was WCW. Like That's where it's

1605
01:45:21,880 --> 01:45:27,159
just like the tribalism wars is just
like you gotta look back like WW like

1606
01:45:27,359 --> 01:45:30,600
copied them. Like it's like,
yeah, it's an easy story to do

1607
01:45:30,079 --> 01:45:33,239
for me, I'm all about let's
see where it goes. The footage we

1608
01:45:33,359 --> 01:45:38,359
talked about there was pros and cons. I've still was the fact that I'm

1609
01:45:38,439 --> 01:45:41,920
still I'm fifty to fifty on it
and the fact that they i think have

1610
01:45:42,119 --> 01:45:45,279
actually used it in a good way
to get Jack Perry back. It's made

1611
01:45:45,319 --> 01:45:48,479
sense because since Jack Perry came back, he hasn't he alluded to like some

1612
01:45:48,720 --> 01:45:53,119
like like the Jacket and New Japan
stuff, but like they've not talked about

1613
01:45:53,159 --> 01:45:57,199
punk. What they've made the issue
is Jack Perry is mad at Tony Kahn.

1614
01:45:57,520 --> 01:46:00,399
When he did that return promo where
they attacked TK, there was not

1615
01:46:00,520 --> 01:46:03,520
a single seampunk reference shot anything.
So like I think for me, in

1616
01:46:03,560 --> 01:46:09,039
the long run, one the footage
in Kilaw they popped rating and then the

1617
01:46:09,119 --> 01:46:11,880
rings have been back and forth,
so it's like they're the same they are.

1618
01:46:12,319 --> 01:46:15,359
I agree with you with the Harvey
Weinstein stuff. It's it's tough because

1619
01:46:15,479 --> 01:46:18,000
like, is some of that true? Of course, ww is a hole

1620
01:46:18,119 --> 01:46:21,000
is gonna get sued at some point, not just Vin's, Like yeah,

1621
01:46:21,159 --> 01:46:26,399
there's other shady people in that company, but like unfortunately that's every company,

1622
01:46:26,520 --> 01:46:30,920
that's the NFL, that's he fucking
has Rick Flair on his roster, who's

1623
01:46:30,920 --> 01:46:33,119
had some alleged stuff, right,
Like, it's it's tough for any of

1624
01:46:33,159 --> 01:46:38,600
those big companies to throw stones because
like we talk about all tum and Combooks,

1625
01:46:38,640 --> 01:46:41,399
UF, Marvel, DC, Star
Wars, they all skeletons in their

1626
01:46:41,399 --> 01:46:44,920
closet. You can't do the like
what about ism because like all of them

1627
01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:46,279
are tough. I get what he's
trying to do. He should have just

1628
01:46:46,319 --> 01:46:49,520
talked up AW in that moment.
I'm fine with shots, but I think

1629
01:46:49,600 --> 01:46:55,560
the those shots are there is there
is a line. I'm not saying that

1630
01:46:55,600 --> 01:46:59,000
because I'm not the person who's offended
of like no they're a better company there.

1631
01:46:59,119 --> 01:47:00,960
No, I guarantee there's still people
in that company that new shit was

1632
01:47:01,000 --> 01:47:04,479
going on with Vince. I'm not
gonna play the woe wwe They're all clean

1633
01:47:04,600 --> 01:47:08,319
now. No, there's a chance
in six months we cot to be talking

1634
01:47:08,319 --> 01:47:11,359
about Triple Ah has been let go
because he got a text and he knew

1635
01:47:11,439 --> 01:47:13,279
something right like, and I'm not
trying to say it, but it's like,

1636
01:47:13,479 --> 01:47:15,640
we don't know what happens with these
people lives like Nick con could be

1637
01:47:15,760 --> 01:47:19,920
gone. So it's like it's it's
not like an unfair comparison, but it

1638
01:47:20,119 --> 01:47:24,600
is like a tough thing to say
in the mainstream. But for the storyline,

1639
01:47:25,279 --> 01:47:29,399
I'm all down because guess what it
created buzz. People were talking about

1640
01:47:29,439 --> 01:47:32,760
it good or indifferent, and that's
what AW has to create buzz and also

1641
01:47:32,840 --> 01:47:35,439
do the good matches. They got
the good matches down for the most part.

1642
01:47:35,880 --> 01:47:39,600
The buzz can be questionable. But
it's the same thing I always say

1643
01:47:39,640 --> 01:47:42,880
about I've said this on podcast for
years about Ron Tomatos. People can plain

1644
01:47:42,880 --> 01:47:45,600
about Ron tomatoes. They're usually the
people that are like tweeting about it the

1645
01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:48,199
most or talking about most. If
you don't care, don't watch, And

1646
01:47:48,239 --> 01:47:51,840
same thing with AW. If you
think TK all this stuff really sucks,

1647
01:47:53,359 --> 01:47:56,039
then just move on. But they
don't. And every time you send a

1648
01:47:56,319 --> 01:48:00,319
tweet about AW, you complain about
it. You help them nasty, you

1649
01:48:00,439 --> 01:48:02,399
spread them around like you you get
the word out there. Right, So

1650
01:48:02,840 --> 01:48:05,720
the better way is like when I
stop watching WWE, I just would never

1651
01:48:05,800 --> 01:48:10,199
tweet WWE. I would just tweet
about a match wrestler, but I would

1652
01:48:10,199 --> 01:48:13,800
not tweet about the brands because you
still help them. They still get They're

1653
01:48:13,840 --> 01:48:16,399
still trending based on my tweet,
right, so we're getting that engagement somehow,

1654
01:48:16,560 --> 01:48:19,359
some way. So yeah, so
just still put them in your mouth.

1655
01:48:19,680 --> 01:48:21,960
But I think that's the same with
AW, that there's still enough good

1656
01:48:23,039 --> 01:48:25,479
stuff that people want to watch.
And I'm not saying w' is perfect,

1657
01:48:25,520 --> 01:48:29,760
but double or nothing I'm excited for. We're not gonna go over the quick

1658
01:48:29,800 --> 01:48:32,560
card they got Will and I and
GOI vers Mercedes Monet. Monette has been

1659
01:48:32,560 --> 01:48:35,039
a whole other thing. I think
they they should not have brought her in

1660
01:48:35,159 --> 01:48:38,600
when she hasn't been cleared. I
think that was a fumble. They got

1661
01:48:38,680 --> 01:48:42,680
stronger zuspre we talk about Tony Storm
versus Deep, which is like a weird

1662
01:48:42,840 --> 01:48:45,520
route we're going because I feel like
every month they have Tony Storm. I

1663
01:48:45,560 --> 01:48:49,119
guess she's just a tweeter because sometimes
she's versus a heel. Sometimes she's frissing

1664
01:48:49,119 --> 01:48:51,800
a baby face. I don't know. And then, like we talked about

1665
01:48:51,800 --> 01:48:55,479
swerving Kate, so already with those
four matches, I'm like, that's gonna

1666
01:48:55,479 --> 01:48:59,520
be because at least you know Mournee
and Willow. It's gonna be. It's

1667
01:48:59,560 --> 01:49:01,720
gonna be a good one. And
I think I think Money is gonna get

1668
01:49:01,720 --> 01:49:06,439
to win there buy some foul player
or something. So yeah, right now

1669
01:49:06,960 --> 01:49:13,479
they're set up with good matches,
but not great storyline. In my opinion

1670
01:49:13,920 --> 01:49:16,880
for this pay per view, I
still think that they are going to be

1671
01:49:17,319 --> 01:49:21,960
good matches. I'm excited to see
over the next couple of weeks what they

1672
01:49:23,159 --> 01:49:27,960
do to set up the rest of
the matches. I mean, because we're

1673
01:49:28,039 --> 01:49:31,880
gonna need more. I have a
feeling Okada will be added to this somehow,

1674
01:49:32,079 --> 01:49:34,880
some way. You're going to Tag
Team Championships are going to need to

1675
01:49:34,920 --> 01:49:39,920
be added. Things like that.
You've got so many belts and right now

1676
01:49:41,520 --> 01:49:46,239
you have the World, the Women's
and the TBS championship locked in, So

1677
01:49:47,039 --> 01:49:51,439
we're gonna need to find out what
happens with the unified trios Ocada is Continental

1678
01:49:54,079 --> 01:49:59,239
and things like that. So let's
and that's one of the problems with AW

1679
01:49:59,439 --> 01:50:03,640
is they have so many belts.
Oh yeah, man, the only one

1680
01:50:03,640 --> 01:50:06,039
I don't want to see is I
don't want to see the FTW Championship.

1681
01:50:06,079 --> 01:50:10,479
Please don't. Well you'll get that, you know you'll get that. And

1682
01:50:10,560 --> 01:50:15,960
that here's my pitch too. If
Osprey versus Ocata, Copeland or Malchi Black,

1683
01:50:15,000 --> 01:50:18,039
please have them have on the belts
and do like a unification of something

1684
01:50:18,119 --> 01:50:21,800
like, let's get rid of some
of the like like put the I know

1685
01:50:21,800 --> 01:50:26,880
only just no, I just did
the triple Crown content. I just yeah,

1686
01:50:26,920 --> 01:50:28,960
there there is too many. I
agree with you. There there is

1687
01:50:28,960 --> 01:50:30,199
a less importance, like they gonna
get rid of some of those. But

1688
01:50:30,720 --> 01:50:33,960
I at least do think Cage and
Swerve they'll create a good story. I

1689
01:50:34,039 --> 01:50:36,479
think both of them can talk good
enough that by the time you get there,

1690
01:50:36,960 --> 01:50:40,640
you'll want to see them the fight
the other matches, I agree that

1691
01:50:40,760 --> 01:50:44,159
the story is so fort but at
least with Cage, we just got it.

1692
01:50:44,279 --> 01:50:47,640
Even little stuff of like Ko ripping
his dread out and now Cage is

1693
01:50:47,720 --> 01:50:54,960
like keeping his like like I always
trust in Christian to get a good story,

1694
01:50:55,119 --> 01:50:58,479
like he he will make something worthwhile. It's an easy defense, but

1695
01:50:58,640 --> 01:51:00,640
like it's it's kind of like the
aj Cody thing. It's like you kind

1696
01:51:00,680 --> 01:51:02,359
of want that for the first one, right, I know he did just

1697
01:51:02,399 --> 01:51:05,880
beat Claudio, but for pay per
view, it's like I wouldn't expect us

1698
01:51:05,920 --> 01:51:09,039
to think, oh, Swerve is
gonna lose it here, and Christians like

1699
01:51:09,079 --> 01:51:11,840
are good. He's always a good
bag guy to put in that spot.

1700
01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:14,840
So yeah, all right, so
well quickly our last thing, we'll go

1701
01:51:14,920 --> 01:51:19,239
over our last topic here, which
was our ten favorite matches. At least

1702
01:51:19,239 --> 01:51:21,640
I put him that way. If
you have him as best, uh,

1703
01:51:21,800 --> 01:51:27,279
you can talk about your credence or
whatever your qualifications were. But yeah,

1704
01:51:27,279 --> 01:51:29,960
we did this because s pups.
He's watching through some now, so check

1705
01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:31,840
out his twitter. He has a
list of some But yeah, I because

1706
01:51:31,840 --> 01:51:34,600
I hadn't done this in a while, and I still think I needed like

1707
01:51:34,720 --> 01:51:38,039
in a year US three visits because
there was a couple was like, oh

1708
01:51:38,079 --> 01:51:40,920
I should rewatch some of these to
come back to. But I'll let you

1709
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:44,760
go first, just go from your
your ten to one, a little quick

1710
01:51:44,840 --> 01:51:46,640
fact of why they're there, if
you got any honorable mentions and you shut

1711
01:51:46,680 --> 01:51:50,680
those out. And also what is
like the qualifications for the matches that because

1712
01:51:50,680 --> 01:51:55,000
everyone listening going to be different for
like personal best stuff. So what is

1713
01:51:55,079 --> 01:51:58,399
like what gets you to the ten
for you? All right? So the

1714
01:51:58,560 --> 01:52:02,760
ten is based off of the match
itself, match quality, how it made

1715
01:52:02,800 --> 01:52:10,159
me feel, and the lead up
slash aftermath of it, because those play

1716
01:52:10,279 --> 01:52:16,960
a part into it. So I'll
start with my number ten is the Young

1717
01:52:17,039 --> 01:52:21,600
Bucks versus Hangman and Omega from Revolution
twenty twenty. That tag match, that

1718
01:52:21,800 --> 01:52:29,640
lead up was amazing. Hangman and
Omega were amazing as a team. The

1719
01:52:29,800 --> 01:52:34,399
whole feeling before and during the match
of all of these guys just being good

1720
01:52:34,520 --> 01:52:38,960
friends. But how are we going
to make this work? And what's all

1721
01:52:39,079 --> 01:52:43,399
on the line for the tag team
championship that that puts so much of a

1722
01:52:43,520 --> 01:52:49,199
story element into it, and even
afterwards continuing with Hangman and his drunken downfall

1723
01:52:49,279 --> 01:52:54,079
and everything else, it was just
it was good storytelling and just good pure

1724
01:52:54,159 --> 01:52:58,199
wrestling match, like all those men
had time to showcase and that was one

1725
01:52:58,399 --> 01:53:06,239
of Hangman had his good match against
Jericho and then after that, this was

1726
01:53:06,319 --> 01:53:12,119
a good way to continue to show
why AW was putting their trust in Hangman,

1727
01:53:12,439 --> 01:53:16,119
and so that was great. Number
nine, I have Omega versus Hangman

1728
01:53:16,199 --> 01:53:23,199
from Full Gear twenty twenty one.
I am partially upset at this match because

1729
01:53:23,479 --> 01:53:27,319
I lived in Saint Louis at the
time and it was a very strong possibility

1730
01:53:27,399 --> 01:53:31,880
we were getting Full Gear twenty twenty
one because we had a show that was

1731
01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:35,800
derailed by the pandemic and then they
were like, Hey, we're coming back.

1732
01:53:35,840 --> 01:53:39,239
We're coming back, but they did
not say when, and everyone's like,

1733
01:53:39,359 --> 01:53:42,159
oh, it's looking like it's gonna
be Full Gear. We ended up

1734
01:53:42,239 --> 01:53:49,720
coming back right before Full Gear because
I went and saw a rampage taping and

1735
01:53:49,880 --> 01:53:57,279
now I did get to see see
him Punk and Eddie Kingston have a pull

1736
01:53:57,319 --> 01:54:00,159
apart brawl slash go back and forth
on them Mike because of it. But

1737
01:54:00,399 --> 01:54:02,760
that's when Tony Khan came out and
was like, Saint Louis, I love

1738
01:54:02,840 --> 01:54:06,920
you, I'm going to get you
a pay per view. Took him two

1739
01:54:06,960 --> 01:54:14,520
and a half years, yeah,
to finally deliver on that. But Omega

1740
01:54:14,600 --> 01:54:18,800
Versus Hangman was great. I loved
Hangman's entrance in that match with the horse

1741
01:54:18,880 --> 01:54:24,319
going through the empty city. Everything
about that was just great. Number eight,

1742
01:54:24,399 --> 01:54:26,720
and this is going to surprise people
where it's at on the list,

1743
01:54:27,000 --> 01:54:30,039
is take A versus HBK from WrestleMania
twenty five. Oh. I love that.

1744
01:54:31,079 --> 01:54:34,199
I love that match, and I
love the bill. Oh my god,

1745
01:54:35,039 --> 01:54:42,960
WHOA but long lasting feeling for me. Yeah it was a great match,

1746
01:54:43,000 --> 01:54:45,159
and yeah it had great moments,
but just long lasting feeling for me.

1747
01:54:45,359 --> 01:54:48,800
It's one of those where I know
it's a great one, but I

1748
01:54:48,920 --> 01:54:53,840
don't have the urge to go back
and continue to watch it, just to

1749
01:54:53,960 --> 01:55:02,800
watch it. Wow. Number seven
that was is Bucks versus Penta and Rey

1750
01:55:02,920 --> 01:55:10,640
from All Out twenty twenty one.
That was just an amazing tag team match

1751
01:55:10,760 --> 01:55:15,159
and Penta's face and masking rip through
that and just everything else. I mean,

1752
01:55:15,600 --> 01:55:19,159
those guys put it all on the
line and I was here for it

1753
01:55:19,800 --> 01:55:28,359
for a tag team match. Let's
see. Number six is Ospray versus Omega

1754
01:55:28,439 --> 01:55:33,319
from Forbidden Door twenty twenty three.
Everything from the entrances, the build up,

1755
01:55:33,520 --> 01:55:40,439
the whole rematch, everything else that
I can beat you. Everything about

1756
01:55:40,479 --> 01:55:45,359
that just seemed strong and I loved
it. I loved the way that Ospray

1757
01:55:45,560 --> 01:55:50,520
was presented. I loved Omega coming
out there. They put on a strong,

1758
01:55:50,880 --> 01:55:57,880
consistent match. Number five Sasha versus
Bailey takeover Brooklyn. I mean that

1759
01:55:58,319 --> 01:56:01,039
was in my mind. If you
want to ask me for a Women's Showcase

1760
01:56:01,159 --> 01:56:06,319
match, that is immediately what pops
into my head. There's some others down

1761
01:56:06,359 --> 01:56:15,800
the line, Charlotte versus Rhea or
Britt Baker's lights out match versus Thunder Thunder

1762
01:56:15,920 --> 01:56:19,680
Rosa, like those are good,
but this is the one that instantly pops

1763
01:56:19,760 --> 01:56:23,600
out my mind. The build up
to that, the friendship of that,

1764
01:56:23,840 --> 01:56:30,119
the thought of that, the the
Bailey superfan crying during that, everything about

1765
01:56:30,279 --> 01:56:34,479
that was just like they made that
match everything, and it is hard to

1766
01:56:34,600 --> 01:56:43,840
find a flaw within the match itself. Number four Styles Joe Brian Danielson,

1767
01:56:44,119 --> 01:56:50,479
TNA Unbreakable. L those guys just
win. They just put on an amazing

1768
01:56:51,239 --> 01:56:54,720
match, and it is something that
TNA was like, all right, we

1769
01:56:54,800 --> 01:56:58,439
got some good people, but TENA
wasn't getting that shine. This one made

1770
01:56:58,439 --> 01:57:02,600
people go back and search out at
TNA match Yes, going I have to

1771
01:57:02,760 --> 01:57:06,920
watch this, and so yeah,
that that one gets points for me,

1772
01:57:08,039 --> 01:57:10,760
Like I could go back and watch
that and still think, Man, these

1773
01:57:10,800 --> 01:57:16,039
guys are doing it. Number three
Osprey versus Danielson. I mean, there

1774
01:57:16,079 --> 01:57:19,880
may be some recency bias in there, but that was just an amazing match.

1775
01:57:19,960 --> 01:57:25,000
The promos leading up to that match. Osprey's just his love and his

1776
01:57:25,119 --> 01:57:29,760
feeling, Daniel Bryan, Brian Danielson
talking about dying in the rain. Just

1777
01:57:30,039 --> 01:57:38,920
everything about that was great. Number
two Rock versus Austin WrestleMania seventeen. I

1778
01:57:39,000 --> 01:57:43,920
mean, the build up to that, the promo, the video package.

1779
01:57:44,159 --> 01:57:47,399
Man, I will still go back
in what this ain't about, Deborah,

1780
01:57:47,600 --> 01:57:59,199
Like everything about that which is great. The turn of Austin, the handshaky.

1781
01:57:59,279 --> 01:58:01,560
Yes, it was the thing that
Austin says to this day, if

1782
01:58:01,840 --> 01:58:05,359
he could go back, he'd call
an audible in the fly and stunner him.

1783
01:58:05,600 --> 01:58:10,640
But it's still in that moment,
the shock of it. And I

1784
01:58:10,680 --> 01:58:13,680
remember I was in high school when
this happened, and I was just sitting

1785
01:58:13,760 --> 01:58:16,680
there in my living room. This
is back of me. My grandfather still

1786
01:58:16,760 --> 01:58:19,479
used to watch all the pay per
views. He was shocked. I was

1787
01:58:19,560 --> 01:58:24,399
shocked, and we're both just sitting
their hands on hands, like what happened?

1788
01:58:24,560 --> 01:58:29,439
Like that looked just a lasting memory
And if someone were asking what is

1789
01:58:29,479 --> 01:58:33,840
one of your most memorable wrestling moments, that is it that shocked the hell

1790
01:58:33,880 --> 01:58:38,479
out of me as an eight year
old, I could like not process what

1791
01:58:38,760 --> 01:58:41,720
was going on because I was so
young and you're just like your two favorites,

1792
01:58:41,760 --> 01:58:44,079
and then like the vincing, I
was like I couldn't. I had

1793
01:58:44,199 --> 01:58:49,800
no idea, no idea rock selling
the Stunners. Just every time that they

1794
01:58:49,840 --> 01:58:55,520
would wrestle it just got progressively worse. It was great, Like I liked

1795
01:58:55,640 --> 01:58:59,760
their WrestleMania nineteen match, the ride
off in the sunset and everything else for

1796
01:58:59,840 --> 01:59:04,640
them that it had, But seventeen
is just so much better and everything about

1797
01:59:04,680 --> 01:59:11,279
that just uh, it was just
greatness. Fifteen always ever remember his last

1798
01:59:11,399 --> 01:59:13,760
lot. You know it's a good
match, but a fifteen is always like

1799
01:59:13,800 --> 01:59:16,039
that. Yeah, Like it was
a good kick. They proved that that

1800
01:59:16,159 --> 01:59:19,239
they've got good chemistry, they've got
a good match. But man, seventeen

1801
01:59:19,319 --> 01:59:24,560
and nineteen are just yeah, just
great. Yeah, I don't have nineteen.

1802
01:59:24,560 --> 01:59:26,640
When I talked to him, nineteen
it's like a different type of good.

1803
01:59:26,720 --> 01:59:30,880
It's like like a slow movie type
of good where especially that last after

1804
01:59:30,920 --> 01:59:33,000
we'd just for the last five minutes, where's just the rock being on so

1805
01:59:33,239 --> 01:59:36,720
cold and he has like nothing left
and like he does like three hard rock

1806
01:59:36,800 --> 01:59:41,439
bombs in a row. It's like
it's it's a really good lad. I'm

1807
01:59:41,720 --> 01:59:44,199
happy he came back for Ko as
well, but like it's a really good

1808
01:59:44,279 --> 01:59:47,399
send off to that few. Yeah, the uh one more ride on the

1809
01:59:47,520 --> 01:59:54,760
vest like the oms knowing that Rock
puts it on and everything like peak Hollywood

1810
01:59:54,880 --> 01:59:58,640
rock, like yeah, Rock pushing
away head at the end, like no,

1811
01:59:58,840 --> 02:00:01,159
we're going to have a moment just
him and I at the end.

1812
02:00:01,680 --> 02:00:06,640
So everything about Yeah, but seventeen
just tops that for me. Nineteen was

1813
02:00:06,680 --> 02:00:12,119
great, but the seventeen tops me
for everything about that. Number one I'm

1814
02:00:12,159 --> 02:00:16,199
going to slightly cheat but then narrow
it down. Number one is the Ocado

1815
02:00:16,319 --> 02:00:21,479
Mega trilogy, but more specifically their
their second Wreussele Kingdom match, like that

1816
02:00:23,520 --> 02:00:29,840
that was it. Dominion was great
too, but the their finale at Russell

1817
02:00:29,920 --> 02:00:34,119
Kingdom was just peer peer art and
or no, I think it's the other

1818
02:00:34,119 --> 02:00:36,800
way you have another way around.
The finale was a Dominion and then the

1819
02:00:38,199 --> 02:00:43,159
first is that are you talking about
Kenny won? No? Ok sorry,

1820
02:00:43,239 --> 02:00:45,319
sorry that yeah, you're you're talking
about the first match right at that when

1821
02:00:45,399 --> 02:00:49,439
he won the g One Ken He
yes, yeah, okay. Good.

1822
02:00:50,680 --> 02:00:56,359
So that their their Russell Kingdom match
stood out more. Now, the Dominion

1823
02:00:56,439 --> 02:01:00,399
match was great, but the feeling
going into the Wrestle Kingdom match the bill

1824
02:01:00,560 --> 02:01:09,600
to that was Kenny's ascension. Yeah, and having Kenny's ascension versus and at

1825
02:01:09,680 --> 02:01:15,319
the time King of the Mountain Okada
and looking back like, how did Kenny

1826
02:01:15,520 --> 02:01:21,720
go from the light heavyweight cleaner to
this guy? And that put Kenny on

1827
02:01:21,800 --> 02:01:27,399
the map for me. So that's
that is where the emotional aspect holds it

1828
02:01:27,479 --> 02:01:30,560
for me, because that's what put
Kenny on the map for me. Their

1829
02:01:30,680 --> 02:01:35,560
whole trilogy as a whole was just
filled with classics. But this, this

1830
02:01:35,840 --> 02:01:44,199
ramped them up, and this established
Okay, Kenny's that guy, he is

1831
02:01:44,359 --> 02:01:47,720
going to be here for years to
come. And Okada was just Okada.

1832
02:01:47,840 --> 02:01:53,079
He came, he did his thing, and he proved why he was the

1833
02:01:53,319 --> 02:01:58,199
new ace of New Japan for wrestling. And so their match was just amazing.

1834
02:01:58,279 --> 02:02:01,560
But their whole, their trilogy has
a whole I would just put as

1835
02:02:01,720 --> 02:02:05,720
my top because those guys gave it
all. Every match was hard hitting,

1836
02:02:06,760 --> 02:02:13,600
their crowd spots, canny dive into
the outside because they had the hard concrete,

1837
02:02:13,760 --> 02:02:16,239
they had the tables that don't break. I mean, it was just

1838
02:02:16,680 --> 02:02:21,920
they went for gold every single time. So yeah, that's my top ten.

1839
02:02:23,239 --> 02:02:26,199
Yeah they're tied, remember because it
was they've both won one and then

1840
02:02:26,239 --> 02:02:29,399
then one was a draw, so
they're still need that tiebreaker, which we

1841
02:02:29,439 --> 02:02:32,000
will get one day. Is it
gonna be New Japan level? I don't

1842
02:02:32,000 --> 02:02:34,199
know. They're both fold and they've
been through some stuff, so I don't

1843
02:02:34,239 --> 02:02:36,880
know. There's part of me that, like, I know everyone wants to

1844
02:02:38,000 --> 02:02:40,359
four and I do as well,
but there is part of me of like

1845
02:02:40,880 --> 02:02:43,720
I trust them, but there is
almost like a magic to leaving it tied.

1846
02:02:43,840 --> 02:02:46,359
But I can see why you'd want
to at least one more time.

1847
02:02:46,560 --> 02:02:49,840
But yeah, all right, So
I got a couple of on the we'll

1848
02:02:49,880 --> 02:02:53,439
mention. So there's other matches I
didn't show. We'll probably do like another

1849
02:02:53,479 --> 02:02:56,640
top ten one day, like stuff
like TLC two thousand and one or taker

1850
02:02:56,760 --> 02:03:00,359
mankind telling them cell where it's like
technically they'd be in a top ten but

1851
02:03:00,479 --> 02:03:02,079
like they don't have the match qually, but because the most they're so iconic.

1852
02:03:02,159 --> 02:03:05,119
So maybe we'll do like a top
stip matches or something like that,

1853
02:03:05,279 --> 02:03:09,439
because there's a lot of those,
like Cactus Jack in Triple As from The

1854
02:03:09,520 --> 02:03:13,840
Rumble right where it's like I can't
because I usually never put too many weapons

1855
02:03:13,920 --> 02:03:15,600
matches in my top tens because I
like, I like just the one on

1856
02:03:15,640 --> 02:03:18,279
one. I think younger I did, but I like, I like some

1857
02:03:18,520 --> 02:03:21,920
usage of weapons, but I like
one on one. There's rules and there

1858
02:03:21,960 --> 02:03:27,159
we go. I this was tough
the bottom half for me. I had

1859
02:03:27,239 --> 02:03:30,159
some questions like also got to give
the honorable shout to Rock and Hogan,

1860
02:03:30,239 --> 02:03:33,359
but again that's like a moment's match
one that these are the two that was

1861
02:03:33,359 --> 02:03:38,159
the hardest for me not to put
a double Yeah it was yeah that one.

1862
02:03:38,199 --> 02:03:41,600
Then talk about another double term bred
Austin thirteen that was tough for me

1863
02:03:41,720 --> 02:03:45,279
not to put on because I was
I really want to, but I didn't.

1864
02:03:45,560 --> 02:03:47,039
And then another one that was probably
the toughest I would have to put

1865
02:03:47,039 --> 02:03:51,199
it as eleven for me is Beyonce
and Sasha because I loved that match for

1866
02:03:51,319 --> 02:03:55,560
Mania. I think I always say
there is an asterix on Night one,

1867
02:03:55,640 --> 02:03:58,560
but if you take that away,
I could make an argument for that being

1868
02:03:58,600 --> 02:04:00,880
the best WrestleMania Made event match like
quality wise, you know, I think

1869
02:04:00,960 --> 02:04:04,640
they delivered. There's multiple moments in
that match, whether it's a crowd or

1870
02:04:04,760 --> 02:04:09,600
them or just overall like they they
we That was one of those where it's

1871
02:04:09,600 --> 02:04:12,239
like Osprey and Brian where it's like, you guys gotta have something great,

1872
02:04:12,279 --> 02:04:14,880
you gotta be special, and they
were. So for me, that's like

1873
02:04:15,079 --> 02:04:17,520
eleven. That's why the back half
I need to I need to rewatch because

1874
02:04:17,520 --> 02:04:20,840
there's somewhere it's like, oh,
it's tough. So when we were talking

1875
02:04:21,279 --> 02:04:28,680
about uh Jade Cargo yesterday, my
girlfriend and I reference that Beyonca match because

1876
02:04:28,680 --> 02:04:31,039
I'm like, you know, it's
like her partner is also super strong,

1877
02:04:31,119 --> 02:04:34,880
and I reference the walking up the
steps and just the hard hitting of that

1878
02:04:35,239 --> 02:04:40,840
and everything else. So yeah,
that that match was incredible, and that

1879
02:04:40,960 --> 02:04:43,640
was good because an nx T Bianc
used to use her hair as a weapon,

1880
02:04:43,720 --> 02:04:45,840
and on the main roster she never
did until that match. She they

1881
02:04:45,920 --> 02:04:49,000
saved it for like over a year
and then that whip that do you have?

1882
02:04:49,920 --> 02:04:54,039
Yeah, like it that's I mean, like it has those moments where

1883
02:04:54,039 --> 02:04:57,520
I think years from now people will
go back and talk about it and the

1884
02:04:57,560 --> 02:05:00,479
other one. Legitimately, if the
finish would have been different, would have

1885
02:05:00,520 --> 02:05:03,880
been Cody and Roman from thirty nine, because I think Roman winning was mistake,

1886
02:05:03,960 --> 02:05:09,159
as we've heard of Roman and Paulse
apparently this week where like came out

1887
02:05:09,199 --> 02:05:11,760
that they thought it should go a
different rounde and it's just kind of funny

1888
02:05:11,760 --> 02:05:15,239
if Rock and Roman ever happens because
of that. But I think they had

1889
02:05:15,319 --> 02:05:18,119
a really high quality wrestlming to main
event. I think they had good chemistry.

1890
02:05:18,560 --> 02:05:21,840
This year was a fun one,
but that was like the big brawl

1891
02:05:21,880 --> 02:05:26,760
and stuff and everything. So yeah, the backup was tough, But so

1892
02:05:26,960 --> 02:05:31,760
I have number ten Cody and Dustin. I loved that match. That for

1893
02:05:31,920 --> 02:05:38,119
me is what really put aw on
the mat because one it was like we

1894
02:05:38,199 --> 02:05:41,640
were seeing blood to a high degree
again on North America and wrestling, so

1895
02:05:41,720 --> 02:05:44,960
that was big. But it was
the story. When you talk about wrestling

1896
02:05:45,039 --> 02:05:47,920
matches that are a story that right
there, and that was nothing that was

1897
02:05:48,079 --> 02:05:50,600
like, oh we got Dustin and
him and Cody are having the match.

1898
02:05:50,640 --> 02:05:54,159
There was no build up. They
were on TV at that point, not

1899
02:05:54,279 --> 02:05:57,000
a bunch of promos and interviews back
and forth. They did what they could

1900
02:05:57,079 --> 02:06:00,680
with YouTube and history and a promo
pass and they delivered. And that's the

1901
02:06:00,760 --> 02:06:04,479
match that we all wanted in WWE, and we got that stupid start Us

1902
02:06:04,560 --> 02:06:09,079
Goldust match elimination cham where that sucked
and I was like, Oh, it's

1903
02:06:09,159 --> 02:06:12,640
never gonna happen. And that to
me is just like there's multiple images,

1904
02:06:12,680 --> 02:06:15,840
those images of them both just standing
there in blood and they hug after match,

1905
02:06:15,960 --> 02:06:18,800
Like there's just something about that and
probably just because like I am a

1906
02:06:18,840 --> 02:06:21,840
big Cody guy, I don't have
a brother, but I can imagine,

1907
02:06:21,880 --> 02:06:25,800
like I at least have a sister
them close like that bond, like what

1908
02:06:25,840 --> 02:06:28,760
they would have went through and like
that that was one of those like it's

1909
02:06:28,840 --> 02:06:30,680
cheese but like you could just feel
Dusty in that arena. I was like,

1910
02:06:30,760 --> 02:06:33,640
man, this is That's just like
a special one to me. And

1911
02:06:33,680 --> 02:06:38,239
that's where Cody's not maybe the most
talented guy in the ring, but there's

1912
02:06:38,239 --> 02:06:41,439
certain times he can be the best
in the world given the right situation,

1913
02:06:41,600 --> 02:06:44,680
and that was a day where he
did it. Number nine, This one

1914
02:06:44,760 --> 02:06:47,880
could climb. I need to watch
it again. I got Osprey and Omega

1915
02:06:48,199 --> 02:06:53,560
from Russell Kingdom the reason, and
I will spoil it now. I don't

1916
02:06:53,600 --> 02:06:57,239
have Rock and Austin seventeen. I
agree with you, that is, But

1917
02:06:57,399 --> 02:07:00,840
for me, the finishes of both
those matches is like what hurts it for

1918
02:07:00,920 --> 02:07:03,439
me because I hate the Austin turn
because it's such a good match, but

1919
02:07:03,560 --> 02:07:08,119
like that brings it down. And
for the Toronto one, I do think

1920
02:07:08,159 --> 02:07:11,119
the rematch was the better match.
I think that's one of the greatest,

1921
02:07:11,159 --> 02:07:15,760
but I hate that Calus gets involved
and they do like a screwy weapon finish,

1922
02:07:15,880 --> 02:07:18,520
and especially because like it's weird two
man in the match. They throw

1923
02:07:18,680 --> 02:07:23,439
Calus out, they eject him and
he comes back and it's like, well,

1924
02:07:23,520 --> 02:07:26,680
technically Ospray should just lose right here, you already. So that's where

1925
02:07:26,720 --> 02:07:29,760
it's like for me, I think
the Toronto match is better till the ending.

1926
02:07:29,920 --> 02:07:32,000
So that's why I give the edge
to Wrestle Kingdom. Also because that

1927
02:07:32,199 --> 02:07:36,960
build up of that press conference,
all the shots Kenny was taken throughout the

1928
02:07:38,079 --> 02:07:41,000
year, Ausprey getting in his face
and just saying like, you don't know

1929
02:07:41,000 --> 02:07:43,920
what the fuck I've been through.
I had to watch my best friend's funeral

1930
02:07:44,000 --> 02:07:45,840
on a TV screen like it was
great because I was full Omega. But

1931
02:07:46,079 --> 02:07:49,399
Omega like and they they play up
that they hate each other. I don't

1932
02:07:49,439 --> 02:07:54,279
think they really do. But Omega
lay it out and like let him like

1933
02:07:55,199 --> 02:07:58,000
make him look like a shit heel, like make him look like how could

1934
02:07:58,039 --> 02:08:00,880
you say? All this stuff?
And it's one you tell moments. I

1935
02:08:01,239 --> 02:08:03,319
know, I thought Omega was gonna
win that. I thought this is Omega

1936
02:08:03,359 --> 02:08:07,399
has come back to New Japan to
put over the new foreigner. Here we

1937
02:08:07,479 --> 02:08:11,520
go, and when he won,
I was in shock. I could not

1938
02:08:11,680 --> 02:08:13,600
believe they got Omega the win.
I was like, man, New Japan

1939
02:08:13,840 --> 02:08:18,199
loves Omega. So that's why there
number eight. This is when I saw

1940
02:08:18,319 --> 02:08:20,399
live and it was a dream match
when I was a kid. I was

1941
02:08:20,439 --> 02:08:24,680
hap we got it. HBK and
Kurt Angle for restumeated twenty one. That

1942
02:08:24,960 --> 02:08:30,920
is a banger sleeper. I think
that's Kurt Angle and Sean at that air

1943
02:08:31,000 --> 02:08:33,039
like the peak in the two thousands. That's them at their peak at that

1944
02:08:33,199 --> 02:08:37,880
moment. They were both great at
multiple times, but they just delivered.

1945
02:08:37,960 --> 02:08:41,600
I just remember some of those instances
that Moon salt off the ring where it

1946
02:08:41,720 --> 02:08:46,399
just fucking clocks Kurt in the face. That ankle lock swingtens and that's when

1947
02:08:46,479 --> 02:08:50,399
Kurt really started to introduce the wrap
around the legs on the ankle lock,

1948
02:08:50,479 --> 02:08:52,880
and you just knew when he got
it was over. But then Sean was

1949
02:08:52,920 --> 02:08:56,359
like slowly like move. You're like, oh, he could get out.

1950
02:08:56,359 --> 02:08:58,800
I mean they had Sean tap again, talk about like ending where though would

1951
02:08:58,800 --> 02:09:05,079
happen and the babyface usual ever have
taps and the like uber future Hall Famer

1952
02:09:05,119 --> 02:09:09,039
Shawn Michaels is tapping out. It's
like they put over Kurt Strong on that

1953
02:09:09,159 --> 02:09:13,359
match, and that's like, that's
something special. Number seven out of Sasha

1954
02:09:13,399 --> 02:09:16,680
and Bailey, I don't have much
more to ad because you kind of hit

1955
02:09:16,760 --> 02:09:18,319
the nail on the head again.
Lots of these matches for me are about

1956
02:09:18,600 --> 02:09:24,479
big moments and I'll never forget that
Bailey reached over the ropes and Saush just

1957
02:09:24,640 --> 02:09:28,239
stomping the hell out of her hand. And it's not that women's wrestling wasn't

1958
02:09:28,279 --> 02:09:31,680
great, but at that point it
was. But that was like, oh,

1959
02:09:31,720 --> 02:09:35,439
they can now, they can have
it, which they end up doing

1960
02:09:35,520 --> 02:09:37,880
multiple times, but you can do
a wrestlemaning main event with women, and

1961
02:09:39,279 --> 02:09:43,199
that was the most I think I'd
ever heard a WWE crowd into women's wrestling.

1962
02:09:43,680 --> 02:09:46,399
NXT was starting to build, but
that was like, this is louder

1963
02:09:46,479 --> 02:09:50,159
than anything the men are doing around
the year. You know, I wish

1964
02:09:50,279 --> 02:09:52,800
that there they did the rematch,
which was the thirty minute iron Woman match.

1965
02:09:52,880 --> 02:09:56,000
I wish they didn't bow out and
did a full iron Man match.

1966
02:09:56,079 --> 02:09:58,680
I wish they gave him the full
sixty. It didn't live up that,

1967
02:09:58,760 --> 02:10:03,840
but first match, that's like there's
multiple people like aj Lee and other people

1968
02:10:03,920 --> 02:10:07,399
that start to even Stratus and the
Bells will say they kind of did,

1969
02:10:07,479 --> 02:10:11,720
but I don't agree with that,
Like there's people that put them up.

1970
02:10:11,920 --> 02:10:15,359
But if you want to look at
a match that like started the women's like

1971
02:10:15,520 --> 02:10:18,520
evolution or whatever, it is like
that's the match. That's the match where

1972
02:10:18,560 --> 02:10:22,640
it's like, Okay, this is
a changing of the game. So number

1973
02:10:22,680 --> 02:10:26,560
six, I got a different tag
with the Bucks and Kenny. I got

1974
02:10:26,600 --> 02:10:31,760
the Young Bucks versus the Golden Lovers. That was coming off the title win.

1975
02:10:31,880 --> 02:10:35,159
That was coming off that build up, that like three year build up

1976
02:10:35,199 --> 02:10:39,000
for Coda and Kenny getting back together, like him winning the title. The

1977
02:10:39,159 --> 02:10:46,279
hug Cody turning on him like everything
that that Bowl Club Kenny Cody bull clubs

1978
02:10:46,319 --> 02:10:48,359
fine as Yeah, that to me
is peak Bull Club for me as far

1979
02:10:48,399 --> 02:10:52,960
as drama was so good, and
this was like that classic Kenny doesn't really

1980
02:10:54,000 --> 02:10:56,119
want to do the match and the
ending where he's gonna go for the finish

1981
02:10:56,560 --> 02:11:00,279
and he won't do it, and
that's just like do it, dude,

1982
02:11:00,319 --> 02:11:03,520
like hit me with it, and
Kenny hits and doesn't want to and then

1983
02:11:03,640 --> 02:11:07,920
after they formed the Golden Elite like
that was that was special to me.

1984
02:11:07,079 --> 02:11:11,479
That was so much stuff. It
was the It was like a that's where

1985
02:11:11,039 --> 02:11:13,840
wrestling's at his best. That's like
real life. You have a guy who

1986
02:11:15,199 --> 02:11:18,479
in storyline he has the love of
his life, but then his best friends

1987
02:11:18,479 --> 02:11:20,359
who have the time don't like him. So it's like what do you do?

1988
02:11:20,560 --> 02:11:22,000
Do you go with your best friends
or the love of your life?

1989
02:11:22,039 --> 02:11:26,039
And it was like Kenny in the
middle of this. It was just oh,

1990
02:11:26,399 --> 02:11:31,640
just magical stuff. Yeah, I
got Austrey and Brian at five right

1991
02:11:31,680 --> 02:11:33,920
now. It could climb up,
but I just put it there because it

1992
02:11:33,000 --> 02:11:37,720
could go. It doesn't have the
same story. It is just hey,

1993
02:11:37,840 --> 02:11:41,279
who's better right now. Who is
the best in the world right now?

1994
02:11:41,359 --> 02:11:43,239
So it is a classic story,
but what they did in the match made

1995
02:11:43,319 --> 02:11:46,159
up for it. Again, that's
a situation where everyone said, you guys

1996
02:11:46,199 --> 02:11:50,600
got to deliver a five star and
that easily could have disappointed because I feel

1997
02:11:50,680 --> 02:11:52,720
like I like the matches, but
I feel like that hat with They'll call

1998
02:11:52,720 --> 02:11:54,800
it on Brian where everyone thought,
oh, this is gonna be an all

1999
02:11:54,840 --> 02:11:58,479
timer and they never really got there. You know, those matches they never

2000
02:11:58,880 --> 02:12:01,399
they were good, but they never
had that Austbury and Bryan that was something

2001
02:12:01,479 --> 02:12:05,520
special. It could climb. But
I have to wait, I'm a sucker

2002
02:12:05,600 --> 02:12:07,479
for these so iron Man or at
number four, I got Brent Shawn's Iron

2003
02:12:07,520 --> 02:12:11,600
Man. I love iron Man matches. I know some people don't. And

2004
02:12:11,640 --> 02:12:15,000
it's funny because, like, I'm
not a basketball guy. My whole thing

2005
02:12:15,039 --> 02:12:16,920
against is like, oh, they're
always getting hoops. Like it's like until

2006
02:12:16,960 --> 02:12:20,600
the very end, it doesn't matter
about iron Man matches because I I love

2007
02:12:20,720 --> 02:12:26,319
the challenge, and especially because in
the eighties they did so many you know,

2008
02:12:26,439 --> 02:12:28,399
oh, going to our matches.
It got very rare in w for

2009
02:12:28,560 --> 02:12:33,159
to go like forty minutes, you
know, so and if like, there's

2010
02:12:33,199 --> 02:12:39,159
been many greats MJF and Brian last
year they did a phenomenal job, but

2011
02:12:39,319 --> 02:12:43,239
like Sean and Brett is still the
standard. They did so many great spots

2012
02:12:43,319 --> 02:12:46,920
there, and again that's like peak
ninety Sean, peak nineties Brett. I

2013
02:12:46,000 --> 02:12:50,600
love Brett Hart. Brett Hart's just
like you know, excellent execution. So

2014
02:12:50,800 --> 02:12:54,359
I got that there. I got
number three. Omega and Acata the wrestle

2015
02:12:54,399 --> 02:12:58,319
came the first one. I don't. I don't know why don't have it

2016
02:12:58,399 --> 02:13:01,560
high I think the reason I might
not is because I didn't see it live.

2017
02:13:03,000 --> 02:13:05,600
That was the thing where I was
not watching a bunch of stuff yet,

2018
02:13:05,680 --> 02:13:09,119
and then later on that's when I
did hear the legend of Kenny Omega.

2019
02:13:09,479 --> 02:13:11,760
So I think some of it hurts
because, like I saw all of

2020
02:13:11,760 --> 02:13:16,000
the highlights before and I knew the
results, so it's like it was very

2021
02:13:16,079 --> 02:13:18,199
much like not going through the motions, but it was like, Okay,

2022
02:13:18,720 --> 02:13:20,520
I know this, but it still
is one of these things where for two

2023
02:13:20,640 --> 02:13:24,439
years people said this is the greatest
match of all time, and I thought,

2024
02:13:24,520 --> 02:13:26,520
for sure, when I watch it, I'm not gonna feel that way.

2025
02:13:26,680 --> 02:13:31,319
After the hype seeing highlights and then
once I watched them like it could

2026
02:13:31,359 --> 02:13:35,199
be the greatest match. There's a
difference where this is my favorite list.

2027
02:13:35,600 --> 02:13:39,359
If we were to make a list
of the best match, which is purely

2028
02:13:39,479 --> 02:13:41,640
best like takeout moments, this could
be number one, same way as like

2029
02:13:41,720 --> 02:13:46,000
Bretton Hart or Bett and Austin,
this might be in the top ten.

2030
02:13:46,039 --> 02:13:46,920
But this is my favorite. So
it's kind of like what Dave said were

2031
02:13:46,960 --> 02:13:52,199
there's some moments how I felt at
the time wrestling, but as far as

2032
02:13:52,279 --> 02:13:56,720
best like that, this is to
me still peek Kenny two of like a

2033
02:13:56,920 --> 02:14:03,600
bleach bleached blonde hair, the but
terminator gimmick, the he has the best

2034
02:14:03,640 --> 02:14:05,199
gear. This is the best shape
he's in too, because he is fucking

2035
02:14:05,800 --> 02:14:11,000
he is ripped and he's told like
he's both things. He's like he looks

2036
02:14:11,039 --> 02:14:16,800
incredible. He's lean enough to maneuver, but he's strong enough that he looks

2037
02:14:16,920 --> 02:14:22,439
believable in a heavyweight match. He
looks like a comic book drawn film.

2038
02:14:22,479 --> 02:14:24,760
He does not even look real like
it looks like and the spots they do

2039
02:14:26,039 --> 02:14:30,239
the classic spot of Will caught of
going for the rain Maker and like Kenny

2040
02:14:30,399 --> 02:14:33,920
just like go on Limp and he's
just like so exhausted. Yeah, it's

2041
02:14:35,039 --> 02:14:37,199
it's such a special match. I
can At the time, I thought,

2042
02:14:37,239 --> 02:14:39,479
man, they should have had Kenny
win it once I got there. But

2043
02:14:39,640 --> 02:14:43,520
then when they did the win and
they did the Gold Lovers reunion, I

2044
02:14:43,560 --> 02:14:46,319
thought, no, they're right to
hold off on that, and that was

2045
02:14:46,399 --> 02:14:50,319
good number two. This is definitely
more so. It might be lower as

2046
02:14:50,399 --> 02:14:54,000
far as quality of the mattress,
but this is definitely too. Like what

2047
02:14:54,199 --> 02:14:58,159
David said to I agree, moments
Punkin see Him or punkin Sam Punkin scene

2048
02:14:58,199 --> 02:15:01,479
at Money in the Bank, that
was one of those are they gonna do

2049
02:15:01,600 --> 02:15:05,199
it? Is it gonna happen?
Because if Sina wins that match, like

2050
02:15:05,239 --> 02:15:07,880
I was talking about the Cody Roman
thing, if Sina wins that match,

2051
02:15:09,079 --> 02:15:11,159
this match is not on my list
at all. It's not even my top

2052
02:15:11,199 --> 02:15:16,720
fifty because it's like, well another
loll Sina wins Punk probably taps in Chicago.

2053
02:15:16,840 --> 02:15:20,279
There you go. But that was
a change in the guard that saved

2054
02:15:20,359 --> 02:15:24,720
my w fandom because I was ready
to stop watching Punk cut that pipe bomb,

2055
02:15:24,760 --> 02:15:28,680
and then when he won, it
was like this, man, they're

2056
02:15:28,760 --> 02:15:33,079
gonna give them the ball? Did
they know there's a whole bunch of issues

2057
02:15:33,119 --> 02:15:37,680
that happened after, but that moment
will always stand in time of I just

2058
02:15:37,720 --> 02:15:41,760
felt like no one believed he's not
gonna win, and the fact that his

2059
02:15:41,880 --> 02:15:43,640
contract was actually up, like it
was one of those things. It wasn't

2060
02:15:43,640 --> 02:15:46,760
storyline. There was so much stuff
and Punk was my guy. Like I've

2061
02:15:46,760 --> 02:15:52,039
said, like see it like Undertaker
brought me into wrestling, seem Punk save

2062
02:15:52,199 --> 02:15:56,079
my fandom, and then Omega introduced
me to a whole new fandom like those

2063
02:15:56,119 --> 02:15:58,279
are my three touchdones, and Punk
that was my guy. He was like

2064
02:15:58,399 --> 02:16:03,199
I own every punctured imaginable. I'm
straight edge, like all the things about

2065
02:16:03,239 --> 02:16:07,760
Punk spoke to me. I'm the
same like skinny Fat, where I cannot

2066
02:16:07,840 --> 02:16:11,960
seem like big, but I always
got some like there's so much stuff there.

2067
02:16:13,119 --> 02:16:16,079
So that was just such a moment
for me as a fan of like

2068
02:16:16,239 --> 02:16:18,960
Man, and the match was really
good too. That crowd talk about electric

2069
02:16:18,000 --> 02:16:24,600
crowds, That Chicago crowd that night
is it's something. It's it's a magical

2070
02:16:24,680 --> 02:16:28,359
moment. They were on fire.
Yeah, So it's just something I take

2071
02:16:28,439 --> 02:16:31,120
back. And then now because as
you will imagine, my shocked when David

2072
02:16:31,200 --> 02:16:35,479
said at number eight. My number
one's HBK and Taker and the other thing

2073
02:16:35,559 --> 02:16:39,559
that I feel very fortunate I was
there live, and I think that add

2074
02:16:39,600 --> 02:16:43,399
too because being there alive, it
was just that was the feeling, yeah

2075
02:16:43,440 --> 02:16:46,239
that I still think for me that
was probably there's some NXT shows, there's

2076
02:16:46,239 --> 02:16:52,159
a couple others, but like being
there live was crazy because I don't think

2077
02:16:52,200 --> 02:16:54,959
anyone thought Sean was gonna beat the
streak, but being there alive for that

2078
02:16:56,079 --> 02:16:58,120
last time minutes, you're like,
man, they might do it, they

2079
02:16:58,360 --> 02:17:01,040
like, and it was there's just
moments too, and also being their life,

2080
02:17:01,079 --> 02:17:05,319
having no commentary. When Taker takes
that dive and lands on his head,

2081
02:17:05,360 --> 02:17:07,719
you're like, man, like live, it was like, ah shit,

2082
02:17:07,959 --> 02:17:11,799
like what's going on here? You
can't really check your phone like to

2083
02:17:11,879 --> 02:17:13,760
hear like Scoopers or people like oh
it's good, Like yeah, it's just

2084
02:17:13,920 --> 02:17:18,000
you're like you're in the moment.
And that was something. And that was

2085
02:17:18,079 --> 02:17:20,680
a dream match at the time too
that I wanted for years. So I

2086
02:17:20,799 --> 02:17:24,040
was younger when they did like the
cask at match of Rumble, like I

2087
02:17:24,040 --> 02:17:26,920
didn't appreciate Shawn and Taker as much
as I did at that point where I

2088
02:17:28,040 --> 02:17:31,440
was like a graduating out of high
school and stuff, and that was something

2089
02:17:31,159 --> 02:17:35,760
very special. Undertaker was my favorite
guy. My sister's guy was Shawn Michaels.

2090
02:17:35,840 --> 02:17:39,079
So that was the other thing.
We were like back and forth.

2091
02:17:39,200 --> 02:17:41,399
It was like, so, yeah, that was again maybe if I wasn't

2092
02:17:41,440 --> 02:17:45,520
there a lot, I still think
it's a top tenor but being there live

2093
02:17:45,639 --> 02:17:48,639
that put it up to a different
degree because it was it felt so special

2094
02:17:48,760 --> 02:17:52,959
and uh and yeah Taker was my
guy, and that was peak streak as

2095
02:17:52,000 --> 02:17:56,680
well too, when the streak was
as important, more important than a title

2096
02:17:56,760 --> 02:18:01,239
too. That was And the entrance
is Sean gain that Mega heave an entrance

2097
02:18:01,319 --> 02:18:03,719
like it was. It was an
event and it was and truthfully, yeah,

2098
02:18:03,840 --> 02:18:07,719
it killed the crowd. We know, we weren't into the rest of

2099
02:18:07,760 --> 02:18:09,719
the show after that. We didn't
care a true threat, We didn't care

2100
02:18:09,760 --> 02:18:13,680
all the Hearty's, we didn't care
about uh Ordon and Triple H. It

2101
02:18:13,879 --> 02:18:20,280
was they blew their load, you
know. Yeah, yeah, it is

2102
02:18:20,520 --> 02:18:24,799
a great match, and yet you're
you're right. The feeling of being there

2103
02:18:24,000 --> 02:18:31,840
versus watching it on TV like it
definitely adds so much more to it.

2104
02:18:33,000 --> 02:18:35,639
I know there have been matches that
I've seen in person and then going back

2105
02:18:35,680 --> 02:18:39,280
and watching it on TV, I'm
like, oh, TV's not doing this

2106
02:18:39,799 --> 02:18:45,440
justice, Like that crowd was hot
for this, Like how did you guys

2107
02:18:46,159 --> 02:18:48,360
miss that? Or there's sense where
you go back you're like, this is

2108
02:18:48,479 --> 02:18:52,079
five starting your brain and then you're
like, okay, I see a botch

2109
02:18:52,120 --> 02:18:54,000
there. Oh I see because sometimes
you don't see that all right, but

2110
02:18:54,040 --> 02:18:56,479
when you watch, like Okay,
this was just the hype of the wind,

2111
02:18:56,600 --> 02:19:01,120
the moment and stuff. So live
always I can mess with you,

2112
02:19:01,239 --> 02:19:03,559
but that's a good thing. That's
why you go live because like it's usually

2113
02:19:03,600 --> 02:19:07,079
always a great time, you know. Yeah, like Royal Rumble when Edge

2114
02:19:07,120 --> 02:19:11,840
returned and it was in Saint Lol, It's like, you know, there

2115
02:19:11,879 --> 02:19:15,959
that entire night, the crowd was
hot. People talk about the Edge pop,

2116
02:19:16,000 --> 02:19:18,799
but that entire night the crowd was
hot. But it doesn't really translate

2117
02:19:18,959 --> 02:19:22,879
to TV as well. Like you
can see the reaction for the edgehot.

2118
02:19:22,959 --> 02:19:26,840
They really focus on the crowd for
all it because they knew what was coming.

2119
02:19:28,559 --> 02:19:31,719
But being there, there were so
many spots where people were just like

2120
02:19:31,079 --> 02:19:35,840
really enjoying, really going off and
things like that. So like, I

2121
02:19:35,000 --> 02:19:41,360
definitely I can tell how just that
feeling that those things give you. Yeah,

2122
02:19:41,399 --> 02:19:43,920
and like to your point, being
there live. I was there,

2123
02:19:43,959 --> 02:19:46,479
alive when the Hardy's came back for
that ladder reaction. That pop is huge

2124
02:19:46,559 --> 02:19:50,479
on TV, but in the arena, even without a roof, like it

2125
02:19:50,600 --> 02:19:54,200
was sol out, I could hear
anything and even just little stuff like tombout

2126
02:19:54,280 --> 02:19:58,600
edge with me. And then we
went to Wrestle's Dream. It's like a

2127
02:19:58,680 --> 02:20:01,959
smaller crowd but still was like on
TV, did not do justuph how loud

2128
02:20:03,159 --> 02:20:05,319
Seattle was apt in the person,
you know, because that's also a complain

2129
02:20:05,360 --> 02:20:09,959
aw for me, Like I think
they sometimes mike their crowds up really bad

2130
02:20:09,000 --> 02:20:11,920
because sometimes it's we were there loud, it was loud. I was like,

2131
02:20:11,959 --> 02:20:18,639
oh yeah, shows on TV,
but yeah, for that Hardy's return,

2132
02:20:18,719 --> 02:20:22,120
I remember I had got a call
from the girl that I was dating

2133
02:20:22,159 --> 02:20:24,479
at the time. I told him
like, I'm watching Russell Maina right now,

2134
02:20:24,600 --> 02:20:26,840
so I may or may not.
She just had to call and I

2135
02:20:26,920 --> 02:20:31,520
have nast. She's like, Okay, this match is cool, lot a

2136
02:20:31,559 --> 02:20:35,200
match whatever. So she calls and
we're talking as interests are going and I

2137
02:20:35,239 --> 02:20:39,719
remember telling her, go Herty's just
returned. I gotta go. She's like,

2138
02:20:39,799 --> 02:20:43,479
what, Like, I've got to
go, and I just hunk up

2139
02:20:43,200 --> 02:20:45,920
and she text me. She goes
says, everything, Okay, I go,

2140
02:20:46,040 --> 02:20:48,799
the Hardy Boys just returned. She
goes the books like, you don't

2141
02:20:48,799 --> 02:20:52,000
even understand. Oh no, you
don't even know. That was such a

2142
02:20:52,079 --> 02:20:58,639
good one. But I literally threw
my phone across the room when yeah,

2143
02:20:58,840 --> 02:21:01,479
they came back. I was on
those classic of like it's rumored, but

2144
02:21:01,559 --> 02:21:05,319
not one hundred percent. They just
were at Roh last night in a ladder

2145
02:21:05,360 --> 02:21:07,559
match against the Bucks. You know, yeah, a banger of a match

2146
02:21:07,680 --> 02:21:11,319
like this wasn't a quick match like
they they put their bodies on the line.

2147
02:21:11,360 --> 02:21:15,200
I'm like, all right, they's
somewhere at home resting. Yeah,

2148
02:21:15,559 --> 02:21:18,520
oh yeah, nope, they were
there. So yeah, there you go.

2149
02:21:18,840 --> 02:21:22,680
We've done it. We will be
back either next month or the end

2150
02:21:22,760 --> 02:21:26,040
of May, because yeah, we'll
cover both double or Nothing or King of

2151
02:21:26,200 --> 02:21:30,639
Ring and see what's going on the
draft points, See see the decisions as

2152
02:21:30,680 --> 02:21:35,600
far as who are our kings and
queens the ring. See what other lawsuits

2153
02:21:35,760 --> 02:21:39,600
or changes happen, or firings and
stuff, because there's always maybe the Wyat's

2154
02:21:39,600 --> 02:21:41,520
six will debut at that point.
We didn't tell about that this time,

2155
02:21:41,600 --> 02:21:45,520
but may wait until then. But
oh, did you see what I put

2156
02:21:45,559 --> 02:21:50,680
in discord about someone clicking on the
video and looking at the source code,

2157
02:21:50,680 --> 02:21:54,440
And the source code was the Roman
numerals for five to five, which people

2158
02:21:54,479 --> 02:22:01,000
would think is May fifth, So
that makes sense. It's strange that they're

2159
02:22:01,000 --> 02:22:03,200
gonna if they bring him back in
a Saudi crowd. I'm surprised about that,

2160
02:22:03,360 --> 02:22:05,639
but I think they'll bring them back
in a big pay per view.

2161
02:22:05,719 --> 02:22:09,200
But I'm excited. I think they're
doing a good job right now. They're

2162
02:22:09,200 --> 02:22:13,079
getting people talking, and as we
send our discord, don't try and force

2163
02:22:13,399 --> 02:22:16,120
them as heels. Let them just
be cheered. People like lost these rests

2164
02:22:16,159 --> 02:22:20,879
that are rumored, people are gonna
want to cheer Boat. They're gonna want

2165
02:22:20,879 --> 02:22:24,120
to cheer in the memory Bray.
Don't force it because they're an evil,

2166
02:22:24,159 --> 02:22:26,600
spooky group. Undertaker was an evil
spooky guy from the majority of his career,

2167
02:22:26,680 --> 02:22:30,479
and he was a top baby face, like just run with them his

2168
02:22:30,559 --> 02:22:31,760
babyface. You could turn them at
any point in the future. But right

2169
02:22:31,799 --> 02:22:35,200
now ride it's like back in the
day when Seth Frons came back from his

2170
02:22:35,280 --> 02:22:37,799
injury. Literally has a video of
him high on drugs. Be like,

2171
02:22:37,840 --> 02:22:41,440
when I come back to be world
champion, comes back, what does Vince

2172
02:22:41,479 --> 02:22:43,319
want to do? Let's have him
be a heel. It's like, no,

2173
02:22:43,479 --> 02:22:46,319
man like you gotta like you go
with the wave, go with the

2174
02:22:46,879 --> 02:22:50,639
Just let them ride that, let
them ride the crowd response, and let

2175
02:22:50,719 --> 02:22:54,799
them sell that merch from the crowd
response and do everything else because you know

2176
02:22:56,479 --> 02:23:00,920
they are gonna make some money off
of that. Just let me that.

2177
02:23:01,079 --> 02:23:05,879
Let the fans enjoy the fact that
the spirit of Wyatt is there. Yeah.

2178
02:23:05,040 --> 02:23:07,200
So yeah, we'll be back.
Maybe we'll be talking about that.

2179
02:23:07,639 --> 02:23:11,120
Won't be boring. Thank you very
much for tuning in. H have a

2180
02:23:11,159 --> 02:23:13,120
good one. See
