1
00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:06.559
It's Tuesday, and you know what
that means. It's time for Ignition with

2
00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:16.120
ae W Fan Hub and Winter is
coming from Arlington, Texas, and you

3
00:00:16.199 --> 00:00:20.079
know what that means. We're in
Texas, which means are we going to

4
00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:28.559
see thunder Rosa this week? Hmm. But I'm here with Sleazy C the

5
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:34.399
Professional and Renee and we are going
to get this thing kicked off with.

6
00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:38.159
Well, we're going to look back
and see what happened over the weekend.

7
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:41.960
And I think one of the biggest
stories over the weekend, and it's been

8
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:45.719
this way for the last couple of
weeks, is the Continental Classic. How

9
00:00:45.759 --> 00:00:51.399
about that match between Androdi Ledlo and
Brian Danielson That was just a privilege to

10
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:58.840
watch. These matches have been pretty
dark good. So we've got a pretty

11
00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:03.039
big match coming up tomorrow night,
and we're going to talk about that,

12
00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:07.480
the Swerve Strickland and John Moxley match, and we're going to talk about the

13
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:11.040
other two matches in the Continental Classic. But one of the things that I

14
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:17.840
wanted to point out is that,
you know, with how many people do

15
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:23.799
we have in the Continental Classic.
We have twelve wrestlers in the Continental Classic,

16
00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:26.719
and some of them are big superstars
that you expect to be there,

17
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:30.439
but some of them aren't. I
mean, you've got Daniel Garcia and Brody

18
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:38.040
King and maybe even Mark Brisco is
more known to be a tag guy,

19
00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:42.439
you know, and a trios guy
more than a singles wrestler. Ruche just

20
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:46.000
came into his own. But the
question I'd like to ask everybody, and

21
00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:49.680
we'll start with Sleazy, is who
would have odd of these twelve wrestlers in

22
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:53.280
the Continental Classic, do you think
is getting the most benefit out of the

23
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:57.439
Continental Class? Who's get the biggest
push? Well, here's the deal.

24
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:02.280
I really hate the Continent Classic.
Stupid doesn't make any sense. But if

25
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:06.239
we're if I have to talk about
who's getting the rub here, I will

26
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:10.560
I personally believe. Well, as
we're looking at it right here, it's

27
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:15.879
pretty clear for the past few weeks
that Swerve has been getting the biggest rub

28
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:17.680
out of all of this, and
he's been needing it. You remember when

29
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:22.719
I was calling him the leader of
the Factory two point zero. Yeah,

30
00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:28.919
he's pretty much change now into what's
seeming like a legitimate threat, albeit in

31
00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:32.280
a garbage tournament. You know,
he's getting the biggest rub here in terms

32
00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:37.800
of anybody from the Blue League,
I mean it's hard to say. And

33
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:43.479
even then that's stilled with more of
the established superstars. Daniel Garcia just got

34
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:49.319
eliminated, so he ain't getting the
rub. Eddie Kingston's already roh and new

35
00:02:49.400 --> 00:02:57.080
Japan Open strongweight champion Claudio I mean
he's already established. Brody King, I

36
00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:00.680
mean, I'm not sure what rub
he needs. And then I guess and

37
00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:07.199
raw Day you could say he's getting
benefit out of this, but in the

38
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:08.960
Blue League, there's not really a
lot of guys who are getting that rub

39
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:14.039
that they need out of this.
But well, you don't think that Brody

40
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:16.840
Kings. I mean, look,
Brody King has been you know, Trio's

41
00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:21.280
champion. He's not really known for
his singles work, and you don't think

42
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:24.719
that, Uh. I think the
last match that Brody King had that was

43
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:30.560
singles, don't get me wrong,
before the Continental Classic was his, wasn't

44
00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:34.840
it the Coffin match Arbi Allen.
I mean, I don't know, it's

45
00:03:34.840 --> 00:03:40.919
been so long. I don't know. Well, I mean, in that

46
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:45.280
sort of context, if we're really
trying to push him away from House of

47
00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:49.879
Black and push him more in a
single direction, then maybe it seems like

48
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:54.719
he's getting the rum here, but
personally I'm not really seeing it. And

49
00:03:54.719 --> 00:04:00.879
plus on Driday probably needs to put
probably needs his way more badly than Brody

50
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:05.039
King, although then again they're fighting
in a garbage tournament, so I don't

51
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:10.919
really see the benefit for anyone.
But you don't like this tournament, that's

52
00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:15.800
just. But since I have to, you know, and cuose here,

53
00:04:18.279 --> 00:04:21.120
I go with the facts, and
I'm not lying to myself. I'm telling

54
00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:26.600
myself the truth. Uh so I'm
passing it off to duff professional. What

55
00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:32.600
is your professional opinion? So my
professional opinion, I would have to disagree

56
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:39.160
with your I guess outlook on the
Communal Classic. I think it's fantastic.

57
00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:44.399
I think it's a great reset for
ad w H to get back to its

58
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:48.560
kind of sports based field roots.
But the answer the question of who I

59
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:53.199
think is getting the biggest rub,
I'm actually gonna go with Brody King.

60
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:57.480
I kind of alluded to it last
week, but I think that this is

61
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:02.680
this tournament has been fantastic for him. I didn't think about that going in,

62
00:05:02.839 --> 00:05:06.240
but once he got that upset over
Eddie Kingston, he kept that momental

63
00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:10.680
rolling. It's another win, He's
got six points. Now, I think

64
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:14.279
he has the biggest rub out of
everyone that's both on a Blue and the

65
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:18.800
Goat League, just because he's not
a main event talent like Brian Danielson or

66
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:24.439
John Moxley or even swear to Strickland, but he can benefit the most from

67
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:28.720
a push from this particular type of
tournament. So I think he's having a

68
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:32.720
great, great time right now with
his matches. I don't see him winning,

69
00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:36.120
but again, I think that he
is getting the biggest rub out of

70
00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:41.120
everyone within this tournament. Well,
let me ask you this. I mean,

71
00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:43.920
when you look at Brody King,
what does he have left? He's

72
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:48.079
got Brian Danielson that he has to
wrestle, He's got Androdi led a load

73
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:51.000
that he has to wrestle, and
Daniel Garcia that he has to wrestle.

74
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:57.519
Do you see him getting one or
two wins out of those three matches?

75
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:01.319
Well, I can win against Daniel, Guys see him because I believe that

76
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:05.399
that's gonna further the storyline of him, you know, having you know,

77
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:10.279
issues with Hey, can I let
go of being a sports entertainer or just

78
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:15.600
go full on wrestler In regards to
ANDRAI, I don't know if he beats

79
00:06:15.680 --> 00:06:19.639
him. Giving that, Andredilo just
got an upset win over Brian Daniels,

80
00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:25.040
and so I don't think he beats
Andrade. When it comes to Brian Danilson,

81
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:28.920
I don't know if he beats him
either, and that that kind of

82
00:06:28.959 --> 00:06:31.720
sucks. Had it out loud,
because he's got some great momentum right now,

83
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:36.839
but I think it can be halted
with both and I and Brian Danielson.

84
00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:44.560
Okay, so let's go to Renee. Renee, what are you thinking

85
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:51.839
who's getting the biggest robber push out
of this tournament? That's hard to say

86
00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:56.279
it. To be honest with you, I I do like this tournament,

87
00:06:58.360 --> 00:07:00.639
you know, I really do.
It's just because you want to see that

88
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:05.120
you know who's gonna step up and
show out on both sides, right?

89
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:14.639
Absolutely? Yeah, And as you
mentioned the intro of this topic, there

90
00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:19.959
is you know, the com the
common note wrestlers are there like Moxley Danielson,

91
00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:29.800
right. I just I don't know. I I do feel somewhat bad,

92
00:07:29.920 --> 00:07:32.600
like you know, with Mark Frisco. I know he's the mostly attack

93
00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:39.199
team wrestler, but I just I
don't know those last few matches that he

94
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:44.399
was in, I thought he had
it, you know, yas, and

95
00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:46.959
he had a chance to win.
And and call me crazy, I felt

96
00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:54.279
also a little simp effect towards Daniel
Garcia as well in his matches, you

97
00:07:54.319 --> 00:08:00.680
know, because I thought he had
a chance to win that too. But

98
00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:09.199
seriously, for the biggest push,
when anyone disagree with the fact about broy

99
00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:13.079
Kate might be the guy that gay
matts, I'll pass it on to the

100
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:16.680
next person. Yeah, well,
you know, I mean when you look

101
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:20.879
at it, Brene, you made
a really good point here, and the

102
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:24.319
point that you made that I like
a lot is that when you look at

103
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:26.240
each of these mat I mean,
Daniel Garcia put on a good match.

104
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:31.480
He's put on good matches. Mark
Briscoe has put on good matches. When

105
00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:35.639
you look up and down the line
at this tournament, there isn't like what

106
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:39.600
usually happens in aw booking, where
you look at a match and say,

107
00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:46.279
ninety nine percent of the time you
know who's gonna win the bout before the

108
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:50.080
match even begins. With this,
you're kind of like dumbfounded. I'm looking

109
00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:54.399
at this and I'm saying, okay, brody King has six points Daniel Garcia

110
00:08:54.440 --> 00:09:00.559
has zero points, and I kind
of think that maybe Brody King is gonna

111
00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:03.919
lose to Daniel Garcia. I mean, and the same thing can happen with

112
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:09.679
uh with Mark Briscoe. Mark Briscow
has to go against Jay Lethal and Jay

113
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:16.240
White. I mean, Jay Lethal
has how many points does Jay Lethal have?

114
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:24.519
We got both, you know,
Jay Lethal has Rouche and Mark Briscoe,

115
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:30.480
and Mark Briscoe has Jay Lethal and
Jay White. Somebody's gonna win.

116
00:09:30.799 --> 00:09:35.639
I don't think that. I think
you're gonna see some spoilers coming up here,

117
00:09:35.200 --> 00:09:39.000
but you know, that's what the
interesting part about this Continental Classic is

118
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:43.960
is that there's no clear cut winner
in any match. And even these guys

119
00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:52.080
like Mark Briscoe and Daniel Garcia Jay
Lethal have zero points, they have nothing

120
00:09:52.120 --> 00:09:56.399
to lose, you know, so
if this was real life, they'd probably

121
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:00.480
approach it like they have nothing to
lose. I don't think Tony con gonna

122
00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:05.960
have anybody finished with zero points.
I really don't somebody's And let's keep in

123
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:13.360
mind also that there's draws in this
tournament, which yet and it hasn't happened

124
00:10:13.399 --> 00:10:18.759
yet, but I think that it's
a very strong possibility that something's gonna happen

125
00:10:18.799 --> 00:10:20.759
and it ended a draw. One
of these matches that ended a draw,

126
00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:26.960
and it's just gonna cause all kinds
of hell with the with the scoring and

127
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:31.159
stuff like that. It's it's pretty
interesting to be and sleazy. I don't

128
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:35.840
know, I don't like it,
but I respect your opinion. Let's move

129
00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:41.440
on. We did a uh we
did a poll in on the aw fan

130
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:50.559
Hub sub reddit and I'm kind of
shocked at the results of this poll,

131
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:56.000
and I wanted to get your opinions
on this. The question that was asked

132
00:10:56.240 --> 00:11:05.639
is does the Trio's Division having matches
in a Trio's Division take away from the

133
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:13.559
tag team division because you've got tag
teams wrestling like the Acclaimed Added Daddy Ass

134
00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:16.279
and now they I mean, you
claim the are former tag team champions,

135
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:22.279
Okay, and they went and they
wrestled Added Daddy Ass and they're in the

136
00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:26.200
Trio's Division instead of when's the last
time you saw the Acclaim in a tag

137
00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:33.679
team match? I can't remember,
and you got this. So there's there's

138
00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:37.639
a lot of the wrestlers that are
tag teams are wrestling in the Trio's Division.

139
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:43.480
And the poll was is it is
the Trio's division holding back or hurting

140
00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:50.120
the Tag Division. And the answer
is, according to the community, it

141
00:11:50.360 --> 00:11:56.320
split dead even equal amount of votes, yes and no, so sleazy.

142
00:11:56.480 --> 00:12:01.080
My question to you is, is
the Tree Division actually hurting the Tag Division?

143
00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:07.200
Well, I personally believe and absolutely
I don't really think it's hurting it

144
00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:13.600
too bad. I think it's actually
maybe benefiting the Tag Division because here's the

145
00:12:13.639 --> 00:12:18.000
thing, right we're getting newer tag
teams right now. Man. We got

146
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:22.879
Ricky Starks and Big Bill, and
then we got Golden Jets right now,

147
00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:30.279
and all these other factions that used
to be tag teams like Darius Martin,

148
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:35.879
the other guy in Dante White,
Top Flight and Action Andretti. That's gonna

149
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:41.000
help Action Andretti, you know,
help them go up the card. And

150
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:45.200
if Action Andretti turns on them or
for some ungodly reason they break up,

151
00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:50.039
then you know, it could either
split into a tag division or something like

152
00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:54.320
that. And then with the acclaim, they turn into a trio. Specifically

153
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:58.440
to give Billy Gunn the respect he
deserves as you know, better and professional,

154
00:12:58.480 --> 00:13:03.000
because if there's something that AW is
really good at doing is respecting their

155
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:09.399
veterans. So a Trios Division just
tends to benefit everybody, including the Tag

156
00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:13.320
Division. Now, sure, you
know you might have some booking mistakes here

157
00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:18.120
and there with some tag teams turning
them into factions, which is ungodly amount

158
00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:24.840
of stupid. But the fact of
the matter is a Trio's division ain't really

159
00:13:24.919 --> 00:13:28.960
hurting it just by its plain existence. You know, it just benefits everybody

160
00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:35.559
in my opinion. But now,
professional, what is your professional opinion on

161
00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:43.080
this? So? I think it
is actually hurt the Tag division, but

162
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:50.759
I think it's due to there being
another Trials belt for all age. I'm

163
00:13:50.840 --> 00:13:56.559
really confused of why we have that. I didn't necessarily think that the Trios

164
00:13:56.559 --> 00:14:01.919
built needed to be at it.
I'm okay with it, but it is

165
00:14:01.960 --> 00:14:07.320
still kind of confusing given that there's
an r H six man Attack Championship and

166
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:13.679
there's really no distinction in the I
guess the challengers so I mentioned top Flight

167
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:18.559
with Action ANDRETTI, I mean they
can also challenge for ROH six man Attack

168
00:14:18.600 --> 00:14:22.120
Team title. So I just don't
know why we have belts for both.

169
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:28.799
I guess maybe they can look to
merge the belts or unify the belts,

170
00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:33.399
but I do think that it is
hurting. But it's from that standpoint given

171
00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:37.679
that there's two sets of even though
they are called differently, but they're both

172
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:45.000
Trio Tag Team Championships, it just
presents a lot of confusion and I kind

173
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:48.960
of don't care about the trio's division. I love their claim, but it

174
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:54.879
just makes me not care. Well, here's something to think about too.

175
00:14:54.960 --> 00:14:58.440
You know, you brought up a
good point in that Top Flight Action Andretti

176
00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:05.559
easily go over to R O H
and battle for their Trios Championship. We've

177
00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:09.200
got final battle from Ring of Honor
coming up on Friday at seven o'clock on

178
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:16.559
Honor Club and Blackpool. Who whoold? I can't remember the match off the

179
00:15:16.639 --> 00:15:20.720
top of my head. Does anybody
know the match for Honor Club? What

180
00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:26.600
is it? It's it's BCC and
who f t R Brisco. There you

181
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:33.480
go. So there's two more aw
teams that could literally go and wrestle it

182
00:15:33.919 --> 00:15:39.440
in me Ring of Honor. Like
you were saying, the professional h So

183
00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:43.480
Renee, let me get your take
on this. What the what do you

184
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:48.519
think about what the professional said?
And and what what what the original question

185
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:56.759
was? You know, due to
trios titles hold back the tag titles in

186
00:15:56.840 --> 00:16:03.519
aw I don't think so it's britto
because you know what I mean, I

187
00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:07.840
know what you mean. Yeah,
it's like it's okay, I'm I'm gonna

188
00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:12.200
try to make make sense to this
too. Where okay, as so as

189
00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:17.080
far as as so far we all
know, like a dog has these different

190
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:22.000
belts, right right, like the
deal the world had was it the top

191
00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:26.159
one is the world headweight belt,
and so forth down the line. Okay,

192
00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:30.240
So the reason why I said no
is because you know, it's it's

193
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:33.919
different, it's a different belt,
just one. Like it's just that we

194
00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:40.120
haven't really seen a tag team match
in a while. Like if anyone can

195
00:16:40.159 --> 00:16:45.720
answer one the last one that you
saw, shout it out, because otter

196
00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:51.919
than that, I've seen the Acclaim
do their thing, right, you could

197
00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:57.120
probably include the House of Black,
you know, doing their thing. I

198
00:16:57.159 --> 00:17:03.279
can't think of anybody else, honest, Well, actually a few tag team

199
00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:08.319
matches, but none of them.
I mean, what's the last time you

200
00:17:08.359 --> 00:17:12.319
saw a Big Bill and Ricky Starks
in the match? The last time my

201
00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:18.279
MEMORYO and so mains with me,
guys is that when they apparently did the

202
00:17:18.319 --> 00:17:22.960
beat down to FDR, which I
never thought ever is going to happen between

203
00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:29.400
that them. But it is what
it is. So but I yeah,

204
00:17:30.200 --> 00:17:34.680
I should just actually just let me
finish. The only ones I could think

205
00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:41.039
of for taxing taxing partners is go
Jets and maybe Young Bucks but f t

206
00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:48.279
R but I and okay Starks and
Starts a Big Belt if you pull my

207
00:17:48.279 --> 00:17:52.000
finger on that one. But again, there's no one else that's really standing

208
00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:56.880
out to me. And tag team. No, That's what I'm saying is

209
00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:04.200
that it's kind of the tag team
in trio's division is kind of being buried

210
00:18:04.240 --> 00:18:07.519
right now. Yes, we've had
trios matches, Yes we've had tag matches,

211
00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:11.480
we even had it, but we
haven't had the right ones the Acclaimed

212
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:17.200
if not wrestle the trios match since
god knows when, and either a Big

213
00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:22.000
Bill and Ricky Starks. So what
are we doing? Why we have the

214
00:18:22.079 --> 00:18:26.319
trios and tag belts? You know, in the past, if somebody wasn't

215
00:18:26.359 --> 00:18:32.799
able to wrestle, they would just
have a in term. Why not make

216
00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:38.680
the BCC and the FTR versus and
Mark Brisco match on Final Battle? Why

217
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:44.599
din't they just make that for the
term trios belts? Because the acclaims certainly

218
00:18:44.599 --> 00:18:53.519
aren't are defending. I don't understand
the logic. Here. Another thing I

219
00:18:53.559 --> 00:19:00.440
want to bring up, and everyone
can take their two cents on this makes

220
00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:06.240
sense to do a tournament like you
know, like not now, but down

221
00:19:06.279 --> 00:19:12.759
the line right and then crowd an
actual champion or maybe a new champion.

222
00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:18.559
I want to see it. There's
a lot of possibilities, just like you

223
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:22.480
can even like like make it wide
open. Okay, you can even bring

224
00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:26.359
few of them, are all right
from R O H shop be part of

225
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:32.839
it, you know, like seeing
the case. I'm just I'm going outside

226
00:19:33.079 --> 00:19:37.240
of this. No, but what
you're saying, I'm better give an answer

227
00:19:37.240 --> 00:19:41.799
to your question and I I'm gonna
but I'm gonna stup double it aside.

228
00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:47.599
At the same time, do what
I want to see a tournament to crown

229
00:19:47.640 --> 00:19:52.359
a new tag team champion. Absolutely
yes, but not the men's championship the

230
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:59.000
women's tag team championship. So that's
what's missing in your opinion. I don't

231
00:19:59.000 --> 00:20:04.839
think that a tag team Championship tournament
for the men would be viable because Ricky

232
00:20:04.839 --> 00:20:11.119
Starks and Big Bill won the championship
and they are to defending and reigning champions.

233
00:20:11.519 --> 00:20:15.000
They just need to. They just
need to wrestle. You know.

234
00:20:15.079 --> 00:20:17.680
If they're not going to wrestle,
then they need to take the tag team

235
00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:21.400
champions off of them, championship belts
off of them. I don't know what's

236
00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:27.240
going on why they're not wrestling.
Let's move on because winter is coming and

237
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:30.519
we've got that. I alluded to
this earlier, and this isn't even in

238
00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:37.240
our outline, but I wanted to
bring this up. Is that the next

239
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:42.319
three shows I believe are in Texas. We've got Arlington, Garland, and

240
00:20:42.839 --> 00:20:48.359
San Antonio. Those are those are
the shows now? I don't know.

241
00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:57.079
I know Arlington is dynamite, san
Antonio is probably a collision. Yeah.

242
00:20:57.119 --> 00:21:07.519
Where's Garland? Is that dynamite rampage? Probably they probably do? And Final

243
00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:15.799
Battle Okay? Is that right?
I think Final Battle and Collision? Okay,

244
00:21:15.039 --> 00:21:18.319
So you know, I mean,
look, you know, we've got

245
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:22.440
shows in Texas, and Texas crowds
are hot, you know, and we've

246
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:29.319
got these big matches coming up.
We've got three Continental Classic matches and I

247
00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:30.720
don't want to get into all of
them, but I do want to get

248
00:21:30.759 --> 00:21:38.359
into a couple of them. One
is the big match we're Strickland and John

249
00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:47.880
Moxley. I mean that is I
don't even know how to explain that match.

250
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:53.960
That is just gonna be complete carnage
because they're so similar in what they

251
00:21:55.519 --> 00:22:00.240
they do. It's leazy. They
both got nine points. The winner of

252
00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:06.000
this match is likely going to the
semi finals. Matter of fact, if

253
00:22:06.039 --> 00:22:07.960
they do have a winner, keep
in mind, they could go to a

254
00:22:08.079 --> 00:22:12.920
draw, and that could really throw
a lupid to it, especially with Jay

255
00:22:14.039 --> 00:22:21.079
White lurking right around the corner.
Sleazy, who do you have the John

256
00:22:21.160 --> 00:22:26.079
Moxley Swear Strickland match? Do you
think that this is the one that's gonna

257
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:30.960
end in a draw? Well in
the Continental trash Pile Tournament. Uh?

258
00:22:32.079 --> 00:22:36.519
I astdally think like if we're if
it's supposed to be the thing, we're

259
00:22:36.640 --> 00:22:38.880
supposed to be the complete reset,
and we're not supposed to know what's gonna

260
00:22:38.920 --> 00:22:42.880
happen, So we're ever supposed to
win. Okay, we expect to draw,

261
00:22:44.119 --> 00:22:47.759
we expect Swear to lose. If
he wins, then boom, we're

262
00:22:47.799 --> 00:22:52.000
back to unexpected eight of where everything
is unexpected. Whoa, oh my god,

263
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:56.839
but guess what it doesn't Bru's my
point at this tournament sucks but yeah,

264
00:22:56.839 --> 00:23:02.799
I think Sworth taking a win that
profession no professional opinion. Yeah,

265
00:23:02.839 --> 00:23:08.000
so I actually think John Moxley is
gonna take to win here in the Fantastic

266
00:23:08.359 --> 00:23:15.960
Condle Classic tournament. I want to
see. I'm really interested in how they're

267
00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:21.880
going to handle Swurve because I do
not think he's gonna win this tournament at

268
00:23:21.880 --> 00:23:26.720
all. But he's got a lot
of momentum. I mean, he was

269
00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:30.000
just talking with the commissioner of the
National Football League on the sidelines, Roger

270
00:23:30.039 --> 00:23:33.160
Goodell. I mean, for Tony
Conne even put him in that position.

271
00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:37.279
He sees a lot of big things
in him. But I don't think he

272
00:23:37.359 --> 00:23:42.279
sees him winning the Classic, and
neither do I and I just want to

273
00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:47.359
know how they handle that. And
I think this would probably be the first

274
00:23:47.480 --> 00:23:52.960
loss for Swerve, and I just
want to I'm really excited again to see

275
00:23:52.960 --> 00:23:56.799
how that is handled. I'm also
excited to see how John Moxley is handled

276
00:23:56.799 --> 00:24:03.400
because he kind of alluded to it
like he's really banged up. He is,

277
00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:06.680
he needs some time off, So
how are they gonna handle that.

278
00:24:07.799 --> 00:24:11.000
Last week I was really focused on
the story and after the match with some

279
00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:15.720
matches, and that's the case here
for this match. I've got John Moxley

280
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:21.119
went in, but I want to
see what happens to both after this match,

281
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:26.799
so I'll throw it over to Renee. I with you on on that

282
00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:30.240
one. Marx will win. It's
I just he'll find a way to win.

283
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:37.640
If it means that that's the cat
sorry decapitates worse ricklet Well, we

284
00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:45.079
want to see that. Oh my
gosh, Well I don't. Well you

285
00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:51.079
see what he lariat does. He
does like I swear to god, it's

286
00:24:51.160 --> 00:24:56.519
like it's gonna take Son's head off. Did that? Hang man? That's

287
00:24:56.559 --> 00:25:02.799
true? Yeah? Right, So
yeah, that's what I partict. I

288
00:25:02.839 --> 00:25:08.680
wrote down the winners somewhere on the
dampoud so I'm sticking to it, and

289
00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:15.759
I'm and I'm not going to budge
come come match day on it. So

290
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:21.880
well, you know, look,
I really do believe that if there was

291
00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:23.519
any match it was gonna end in
a draw, it's gonna be John Moxley

292
00:25:23.519 --> 00:25:29.039
and Square Strickland. Look, Jay
White was kind of embarrassed by losing to

293
00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:34.039
a crippled you know, MJF at
the pay per view, and he's hanging

294
00:25:34.119 --> 00:25:40.000
in right there. If if we
have John Moxley and square Strickland go to

295
00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:42.240
a draw that leaves them both at
ten points, and Jay White beats Mark

296
00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:48.319
brisco That puts Mark Briscoe and puts
Jay White at nine points, one point

297
00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:56.079
behind. And you know what that
means. It means that Jay White has

298
00:25:56.119 --> 00:26:03.880
a shot because who does J White
Russell rush right, Jy Yeah? J

299
00:26:04.039 --> 00:26:10.039
White beaches beats Roused, that he's
one point behind John Moxley and squares Strickland.

300
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:15.759
That means that the last match in
ja Ja White has is against John

301
00:26:15.880 --> 00:26:26.240
Moxley, I believe, And well, the winner of that match goes to

302
00:26:26.319 --> 00:26:29.960
the semi finals. So that sets
it up. But then you also have

303
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:37.599
to look there's so much going on
because again Mark Briscoe, I don't think

304
00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:41.480
he's gonna go winless, and I
don't think that Jay Lethal is gonna go

305
00:26:41.640 --> 00:26:47.279
winless, So you gotta look at
it that way. I don't think that

306
00:26:47.359 --> 00:26:52.200
Tony Kahn is gonna throw Briscoe and
Lethal to the Wolves. Put it that

307
00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:57.599
way, so brisco will win one
of his last team matches Jay and so

308
00:26:57.720 --> 00:27:03.759
Wild Jay Lethal. I don't think
that Ruche is gonna pass, is going

309
00:27:03.799 --> 00:27:06.880
to pass. I think he's gonna
He's anna win, but he's gonna come

310
00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:11.440
up short. He's gonna come up
just out at the top. So yeah,

311
00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:17.519
so let's look at the just a
quick overview of the last two matches.

312
00:27:17.640 --> 00:27:22.759
We have Rouche against Jay Lethal and
we also have J White against Mark

313
00:27:22.799 --> 00:27:26.119
Briscoe. Now I've already said that
I think Rush is going to beat Jay

314
00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:30.200
Lethal and I think Jay White is
gonna beat Mark Mark Briscoe. Sleazy,

315
00:27:32.039 --> 00:27:37.200
give us, give us predictions real
quick on those two matches. I'm sorry,

316
00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:41.559
what were they again? J?
J. White against Mark Briscoe and

317
00:27:41.799 --> 00:27:48.720
Ruche against Jay Lethal. Well,
obviously, as I think you just said,

318
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:55.640
did not throwing Mark Risco under the
bus. But they're certainly throwing Jay

319
00:27:55.720 --> 00:28:00.200
Lethal off of the bus. I
mean, come on, he's been in

320
00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:03.160
all years. He's gonna lose again, as simple as that. Okay,

321
00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:07.640
So you have Rush over Lethal and
what about Mark Briscow and Jay White.

322
00:28:08.160 --> 00:28:14.359
Yeah, Mark Mark Briscoe is going
over in the Continental Trash File. You

323
00:28:14.480 --> 00:28:18.960
think Mark Briscow is gonna be Jay
White in this match? Yes, okay,

324
00:28:18.119 --> 00:28:22.319
let's move on to the professional What
are your predictions on these two matches?

325
00:28:23.160 --> 00:28:29.000
Yes, I'm gonna actually have to
agree with Sleazy for j brisco and

326
00:28:29.119 --> 00:28:33.880
Jay White, I think this is
going to further the storyline with Big White

327
00:28:33.039 --> 00:28:37.039
just you know, not losing his
mind, but just I'm not really happy

328
00:28:37.119 --> 00:28:41.680
about his performance and their commental classic, which is great. By the way,

329
00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:51.000
I don't see Mark Briscoe going winless, as was mixing earlier. I

330
00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:55.359
don't think some ony's gonna have anybody
finished with zero points, so I think

331
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:57.720
this is the way for Mark Briscow
to get that win, and you know,

332
00:28:57.960 --> 00:29:03.000
again it helps further that story for
Jay White in regardless to Rouge and

333
00:29:03.200 --> 00:29:08.319
Jay Leith, though I'm kind of
tormenting this because to Sleazy's point, Jay

334
00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:14.640
Lethal has been losing all year.
But also, like I just mentioned and

335
00:29:14.880 --> 00:29:18.519
was stated earlier, I don't think
Tony KLA's gonna allow anybody to have zero

336
00:29:18.680 --> 00:29:23.160
points, so this could be a
great way for j Lethal to have that

337
00:29:25.400 --> 00:29:32.160
history points with the winning over Rouge. However, I think that could perhaps

338
00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:36.920
hurt Rush as well, so I
just don't know. With that match,

339
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:42.359
I'm leaning more towards Rouge, but
I wouldn't be surprised if J Lethal also

340
00:29:42.480 --> 00:29:49.240
won this match, So I'll throw
it over to Nick Aver weighing in,

341
00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:55.319
I mentioned Maxley was gonna win it, and also I have Bresco winning it.

342
00:29:56.160 --> 00:30:04.480
I figured I left out Okay,
who's Lethal facing again is going against

343
00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:10.319
Ruche. Okay, so my bad. So I basically cover all bases on

344
00:30:11.440 --> 00:30:19.200
gonna win those matches. Okay,
you know I I've already made my picks.

345
00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:22.720
I do think that Jay White's going
over Briscoe, and I do think

346
00:30:22.799 --> 00:30:30.400
Rush is going over Jay Lethal.
I just don't see how they could possibly

347
00:30:30.480 --> 00:30:33.279
get around it. But I want
to move on because I found this to

348
00:30:33.400 --> 00:30:41.000
be very interesting. We had two
champions won the r OH Women's World champion

349
00:30:41.119 --> 00:30:49.960
Athena. She was on Under the
Ring podcast and she said that after her

350
00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:57.920
match where she will retain the Ring
of Honor World Championship over Billy Stark's at

351
00:30:57.960 --> 00:31:03.079
Final Battle on from at seven o'clock
on on her club, she wants to

352
00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:14.720
go after both Julia Hart and the
TBS Championship and Tony Storm and the AW

353
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:22.640
World Championship. Earlier this week on
Instagram, ReHO did a question and answer

354
00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:30.359
session with her fans and somebody asked
her if she was going after Julia Hart

355
00:31:30.519 --> 00:31:37.759
and the TBS Championship and Rio's answer
was that she is very interested in Julia

356
00:31:37.839 --> 00:31:45.279
Heart and the TBS Championship, but
right now she's focusing on the AW Women's

357
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:53.799
World Championship. So basically, we've
got ReHO and Athena both coming out and

358
00:31:53.880 --> 00:32:01.279
saying they're going after all the gold, especially on Athena's part. So the

359
00:32:01.480 --> 00:32:08.279
question here is we've got Rio in
a match against poor Ruby Soho. Let's

360
00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:17.160
all take a couple of seconds.
And yeah, I mean Ruby Soho for

361
00:32:17.240 --> 00:32:21.960
those of you that don't know,
and I brought this up before in our

362
00:32:22.079 --> 00:32:27.519
podcast. Ruby Soho of course was
Ruby Riot at WWE, and then she

363
00:32:27.640 --> 00:32:32.160
came over to AW and she's been
at AW for past what two years now?

364
00:32:32.200 --> 00:32:37.119
I think something like that. Ruby
Soho has never won a championship belt

365
00:32:37.160 --> 00:32:47.359
in either WWE or AW. She's
beltless. She is literally the queen of

366
00:32:47.519 --> 00:32:53.000
the jobbers. She does well until
it gets to crunch time, and then

367
00:32:53.039 --> 00:32:57.440
she's basically used to be the one
to lose and give somebody else the belt,

368
00:32:58.200 --> 00:33:00.400
you know, And that's what's gonna
happen here. So Ruby Soho is

369
00:33:00.440 --> 00:33:08.200
going against Rio on uh on Winter's
Coming Dynamite tomorrow night. The question here

370
00:33:08.400 --> 00:33:15.599
is does anybody see There's there's a
two part question, does anybody see Ruby

371
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:21.039
Soho beat Rio tomorrow night? And
the second question is is because I just

372
00:33:21.079 --> 00:33:27.519
want to know who's crazy and who's
who's got working brain cells? And the

373
00:33:27.640 --> 00:33:34.640
second most important question is based on
what Athena and Rio said about going after

374
00:33:34.759 --> 00:33:38.160
the TBS Championship and the Women's World
Championship. Of course the focus is more

375
00:33:38.200 --> 00:33:44.680
on Tony Storm and the Women's World
champion chip. Which those two women do

376
00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:47.839
you think would be better off getting
the belt? If any of them,

377
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:55.440
either of them Athena or Riho.
Let's go sleezy. Let's just say this,

378
00:33:57.039 --> 00:34:01.039
Ruby Soho's career is just as day
as the wwi WE Lightweight heavy Lightweight

379
00:34:01.119 --> 00:34:10.159
Championship. So yeah, right back. So so anyway, yeah, Ruby's

380
00:34:10.199 --> 00:34:15.440
taking the last look. I'm sleazy, not crazy. There's a big difference.

381
00:34:16.199 --> 00:34:20.519
But anyway, in terms of like, this is not a question of

382
00:34:21.119 --> 00:34:25.119
who would be better off with the
belt since Athena brought it into the Roman

383
00:34:25.199 --> 00:34:30.039
possibility. It might be a question
of who would be better as a belt

384
00:34:30.119 --> 00:34:35.480
collector. It's like we've seen the
bell collector with Kenny Omega, but we

385
00:34:35.599 --> 00:34:42.039
haven't seen anything like that in the
women's division. Something something like that would

386
00:34:42.079 --> 00:34:47.920
be absolutely crazy. Now here's the
thing. Rio's a babyface and the fact

387
00:34:47.960 --> 00:34:53.199
of the matter is her current character
work. I'm sorry, I just would

388
00:34:53.360 --> 00:34:59.880
not work as a bell collector championship
hell yeah, but as a bell collier

389
00:35:00.239 --> 00:35:04.920
that that's just not gonna work now
with Athena. She's a heel right now.

390
00:35:06.039 --> 00:35:08.559
So I mean, I know I
talk on heels getting all the success

391
00:35:08.679 --> 00:35:14.360
all the time, but for once, I'm going back on that for once,

392
00:35:14.719 --> 00:35:17.360
because this actually makes the most sense
for Athena to be a belt collector

393
00:35:17.440 --> 00:35:22.280
right now. I mean, she's
she's been on an undefeated streak for god

394
00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:28.679
knows how long, even longer than
even longer than that certain hair with those

395
00:35:28.880 --> 00:35:35.840
woman with the white hair. Yeah, and it's actually good. So yeah.

396
00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:39.519
So in the realm of possibility,
she could be the belt collector,

397
00:35:39.599 --> 00:35:44.760
and it would make sense for her
to be a bell collector. But let's

398
00:35:44.800 --> 00:35:50.199
pass it off to the professional for
his professional opinion. You know, I

399
00:35:50.599 --> 00:35:54.400
like your idea about Athena being a
bell collector. However, I think it'll

400
00:35:54.480 --> 00:36:01.559
only work if it was across three
separate promote that weren't related to a W,

401
00:36:01.800 --> 00:36:06.599
similar to like how can you then
can Omega did when he had the

402
00:36:06.760 --> 00:36:12.239
Impact World Championship what it was at
the A Champion Mega Championship or whatever it's

403
00:36:12.280 --> 00:36:15.559
called, and then a W world
title. I don't think it would work

404
00:36:15.679 --> 00:36:21.519
if she had three belts within a
W or under the AW umbrella, but

405
00:36:21.639 --> 00:36:27.880
I think that would be pretty awesome, and it would also help solidify even

406
00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:31.280
though it is solidified, but even
further solidify women's wrestling in North America.

407
00:36:31.679 --> 00:36:37.800
I actually really really do like that
idea there, and it actually took me

408
00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:43.199
away from the original question because there
was such a good idea. So Kelson,

409
00:36:43.239 --> 00:36:45.519
can you run by that original question
again? I just want to make

410
00:36:45.559 --> 00:36:49.679
sure that we stay on top of
well the original question for us, do

411
00:36:49.800 --> 00:36:57.760
you think Ruby so stands a snowballs
chance at I don't, I don't,

412
00:36:57.920 --> 00:37:00.760
I don't. I think it was
a two part question I remember correctly,

413
00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:05.440
But the other part. The second
part was the belt collector thing. Which

414
00:37:05.480 --> 00:37:09.039
are the two would you prefer has
the best chance? If either of them?

415
00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:12.840
You could have said Ruby, I
mean, you could have said Rio,

416
00:37:12.920 --> 00:37:15.760
you could have said the THEA.
You could have said hell no,

417
00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:20.519
none of them I mean, I'm
with the Theata like I had mentioned before.

418
00:37:20.679 --> 00:37:25.199
But going back to Ruby Soho and
real, No, I don't think

419
00:37:25.239 --> 00:37:30.280
she's gonna beat I don't think Ruby's
gonna beat Riho for a number of reasons.

420
00:37:30.440 --> 00:37:34.199
One, she is the queen of
jobbers like you had mentioned it,

421
00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:39.480
and two she has his ongoing story
with that I can't remember his name now

422
00:37:42.239 --> 00:37:49.280
guy, Yes, yes, exactly, She's got that ongoing story. And

423
00:37:49.360 --> 00:37:53.599
then you also got that you know
on the side with uh with what am

424
00:37:53.639 --> 00:37:57.239
I? Why am I calling her
page? But you know what I'm talking

425
00:37:57.239 --> 00:38:01.599
about. Yes, so Riah,
So, I don't think she's gonna win

426
00:38:01.679 --> 00:38:06.880
here, and you've got Rio coming
back. Of course she's gonna win this

427
00:38:07.079 --> 00:38:08.760
match, but you know, it
kind of does stuff for Ruby. I

428
00:38:08.840 --> 00:38:14.280
mean yeah, for Ruby because he
hasn't want to go in any promotion,

429
00:38:14.519 --> 00:38:19.119
but it's not gonna change with this
match. So yeah, I don't see

430
00:38:19.199 --> 00:38:23.360
Ruby Soho winning this match. Well, Renee, let's go to you.

431
00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:28.320
Let's see what we've Let's see if
you are going to be a little bit

432
00:38:28.400 --> 00:38:34.119
different like me, or if you're
gonna kind of stay the course. What

433
00:38:34.239 --> 00:38:37.920
do you think is? Does Ruby
Soho have a snowballs chance in hell beating

434
00:38:38.039 --> 00:38:49.000
Rijo? And of Athena and Rio, which one do you think has the

435
00:38:49.079 --> 00:38:53.400
better chance of being a belt collector? Or? Do either state a chance

436
00:38:53.440 --> 00:38:59.719
to be a belt collector? I
have to agree with the professor. I

437
00:38:59.760 --> 00:39:07.159
think it was it's last book a
professional professional. Sorry my bad, because

438
00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:14.079
like she's gonna be too distracted with
Angela Parker smooching her all the time in

439
00:39:14.199 --> 00:39:16.559
that ring, and that's gonna cost
her when it would all takes just a

440
00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:25.360
quick roll up Rio, you know, and and ask for uh the belt?

441
00:39:25.840 --> 00:39:29.440
Who should get the belt or beat
the belt collector? Is that the

442
00:39:29.559 --> 00:39:34.199
question? Yeah? Should should Rio
be the belt collector? Should a Tha

443
00:39:34.239 --> 00:39:37.320
be a belt collector? Should neither
of them be a belt collector? Can

444
00:39:37.400 --> 00:39:42.719
you imagine? I'm really serious,
guys, can imagine a being that person?

445
00:39:43.719 --> 00:39:47.639
Like she just gonna do more violence
that you can that she ever does,

446
00:39:47.760 --> 00:39:52.079
Like I can't sorry to go back
to the past, but look at

447
00:39:52.119 --> 00:39:57.000
her. Matt pass backs even on
dark, dark elevations against nobody's Like,

448
00:39:57.679 --> 00:40:01.840
it doesn't matter if it's nobody or
an actual old wrestler. Right, do

449
00:40:01.920 --> 00:40:06.719
you want that type of person to
be a champion? I don't. I

450
00:40:06.840 --> 00:40:08.800
know that everyone like Satina and all
that, that's fine, but me,

451
00:40:08.880 --> 00:40:13.679
it's like last thing one. It's
like someone who's just gonna doesn't give a

452
00:40:13.800 --> 00:40:16.960
damn it, just all cares about
herself. That's it. You know,

453
00:40:17.440 --> 00:40:22.599
Rio is this it's just something nice
to see you. Oh. I'm like,

454
00:40:22.719 --> 00:40:30.199
I'm gonna assume that Rio never won
a belt before. Right, Rio

455
00:40:30.400 --> 00:40:35.840
was the first aw world champion.
Okay, my apologies, but I probably

456
00:40:36.159 --> 00:40:38.360
yeah because I caught I caught on
an w probably like a year two.

457
00:40:39.679 --> 00:40:49.079
So yep, she was the inaugural
women's champion in a w Okay. Yeah,

458
00:40:49.199 --> 00:40:54.039
you know, let me start with
the first question, and that's does

459
00:40:54.760 --> 00:40:58.920
Ruby. So no, she does
not stand in a snowball's chance. Now

460
00:40:59.400 --> 00:41:02.119
being real, tomorrow night, I
really do hope that Angela Parker comes out

461
00:41:02.280 --> 00:41:07.000
and they create a baby tomorrow night, because it's the only thing that she

462
00:41:07.079 --> 00:41:09.239
could probably possibly do, right,
you know, I mean it's serious.

463
00:41:09.280 --> 00:41:12.320
I mean I want to see her
at least has some fun, you know,

464
00:41:12.559 --> 00:41:15.559
because she's just gonna get the stop
beat out of her tomorrow night,

465
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:19.199
you know, and it's not going
to be pretty. But when it comes

466
00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:23.000
to ReHO and for Athena. I
really do want to see Athena back at

467
00:41:23.039 --> 00:41:29.639
AW. She's too good for Ring
of Honor and she's being wasted on a

468
00:41:29.760 --> 00:41:35.880
show that nobody watches. And frankly, she is the star of aid of

469
00:41:36.360 --> 00:41:40.000
Ring of Honor because she's the only
one that's the mainstay there. Everybody else

470
00:41:40.039 --> 00:41:45.159
in Ring of Honor comes over to
AW and fights at AW. You know,

471
00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:49.559
so I got to give it to
a theater. She's basically stayed in

472
00:41:49.880 --> 00:41:54.360
Ring of Honor and has been the
anchor to that. She deserves a title

473
00:41:54.440 --> 00:41:58.960
shot. Do I think she's a
belt collector? No? Do I think

474
00:41:59.159 --> 00:42:02.800
Rejo is the belt collector? No? I think that they may each get

475
00:42:02.840 --> 00:42:07.599
a belt. I could see Rio
maybe taking the belt off of Julia Hart.

476
00:42:07.679 --> 00:42:12.360
I could see athenambing the women's World
Champion, and I be fine with

477
00:42:12.480 --> 00:42:15.639
that. Do I think it's going
to happen, No, but I could

478
00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:20.920
see it. I don't know if
you understand the distinction there. But it

479
00:42:21.000 --> 00:42:24.079
brings up another interesting point, you
know, because there's two women that are

480
00:42:24.119 --> 00:42:30.800
out there that are really being talked
about, you know, going to either

481
00:42:30.880 --> 00:42:37.400
AW or WWE. Mostly talked about
going to WWE, So it could be

482
00:42:37.440 --> 00:42:43.519
a boot point, and there's also
a third or. But you've got Mercedes

483
00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:52.320
Monet who is going to be going
somewhere soon, Julia from Stardom, who,

484
00:42:52.639 --> 00:42:58.039
in my opinion, is probably one
of the top five wrestlers in the

485
00:42:58.119 --> 00:43:01.840
world right now. I didn't say
women's wrestlers. I mean it, she's

486
00:43:01.920 --> 00:43:07.719
one of the top five wrestlers period
in the world right now. Got Deanna

487
00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:15.239
Perrazzo also that's available. I mean, I think more than likely you're going

488
00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:21.800
to see Parazzo coming to AW.
Unfortunately, I think that Mercedes and probably

489
00:43:21.960 --> 00:43:25.760
Julia are going to go to w
W, although frankly I think they'd both

490
00:43:25.800 --> 00:43:31.760
be smarter to stay and stardom and
then to go there. But that's my

491
00:43:31.960 --> 00:43:37.119
thing. I think that if you're
going to have a belt collector, one

492
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:40.079
of those three winner's going to be
your belt collector. Not what we've got

493
00:43:40.239 --> 00:43:45.559
now, it's scary. What do
you think about the status of the aw's

494
00:43:45.599 --> 00:43:52.159
women's division is as good as it's
gotten. If AW can somehow score all

495
00:43:52.239 --> 00:43:59.800
three of those women, forget about
it, best women's division in the in

496
00:43:59.840 --> 00:44:06.599
the world automatically with those three women. I mean, I believe Mercedes' contract

497
00:44:06.760 --> 00:44:09.440
is you know, she's a free
agent. I believe Pazzo is a free

498
00:44:09.519 --> 00:44:15.280
agent and Julie, I think is
a free agent come March, and she

499
00:44:15.400 --> 00:44:20.519
has stated she wants to come to
the United States, so that's going to

500
00:44:20.559 --> 00:44:28.159
be interesting to see. And speaking
of spiky spicy predictions, let's go with

501
00:44:28.239 --> 00:44:34.559
our spicy predictions for the week.
These could be something about the matches that

502
00:44:34.679 --> 00:44:39.800
are coming up tomorrow night. It
could be a storyline that we haven't talked

503
00:44:39.800 --> 00:44:45.880
about yet that maybe what are you
thinking here? It didn't even talk about

504
00:44:45.920 --> 00:44:52.800
the Devil tonight? Unbelievable, but
anyway, it's leazy. Do you have

505
00:44:52.880 --> 00:44:58.880
a spicy prediction that doesn't include you
know who and you know who about you

506
00:44:59.000 --> 00:45:07.320
know what? Good times? So
uh, I do have a prediction here,

507
00:45:07.559 --> 00:45:10.159
and that's with the Golden Jets.
I think, what's gonna happen?

508
00:45:10.480 --> 00:45:16.000
They're gonna challenge for the tag titles
and then you know, Ricky Starks comes

509
00:45:16.079 --> 00:45:21.039
in and looks like an absolute idiot
while Big Bill comes in looks like an

510
00:45:21.119 --> 00:45:24.679
absolute chad, and then you know
they're they're gonna have the match, and

511
00:45:24.760 --> 00:45:29.360
then that leads to a later prediction. I think the Golden Jets are gonna

512
00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:31.440
be your new tag team champions soon
and then Big Bill is going to be

513
00:45:31.480 --> 00:45:37.880
a Chad and dumped the Virgin Ricky
Starks. Oh you forgot the he start

514
00:45:37.920 --> 00:45:44.559
for the Virgin. He's Vanilla,
Yes, Vanella Rock, Ricky Starks Virgin

515
00:45:44.840 --> 00:45:53.440
Vanilla Rock. Rudy so professional.
What's what's your spicy predictions? Yeah?

516
00:45:53.599 --> 00:46:00.599
I know this is probably gonna be
a weak early, but I think that

517
00:46:00.760 --> 00:46:04.079
thunder Rosa is gonna return soon.
Oh, I don't know if it's a

518
00:46:04.119 --> 00:46:07.199
week early. It's the San Antonio
show next weekend or is that the Saturday?

519
00:46:07.519 --> 00:46:10.880
No, yeah, it's next Saturday. Yeah. I think thunder Rosa

520
00:46:10.960 --> 00:46:15.320
is gonna return at that show.
It makes so much sense. She's ready,

521
00:46:15.480 --> 00:46:20.760
she's been getting her name out there
with just various interviews at the timing

522
00:46:20.920 --> 00:46:25.239
is right. I just don't know
who she I guess interrupts or maybe it's

523
00:46:25.320 --> 00:46:31.679
a Tony Storm. But I am
predicting a thunder Rosa return next Saturday at

524
00:46:32.239 --> 00:46:37.239
Collision in San Antonio. So I
will throw it over to with men.

525
00:46:39.039 --> 00:46:47.079
All right, thank you, thank
you. A wow, that's a tough

526
00:46:47.159 --> 00:46:53.440
one for me. Good but all
right, I'll give give one out.

527
00:46:57.320 --> 00:47:01.239
I'm gonna say the final bat there's
a match that was that no one has

528
00:47:01.320 --> 00:47:09.440
been talking about, Shane Taylor versus
Keith Lee. Oh yeah, meat on

529
00:47:09.679 --> 00:47:13.960
meat, just like the other match
there, match I saw on the Otter

530
00:47:14.679 --> 00:47:17.719
Otter brands, which I will not
mention to who we are, but if

531
00:47:17.760 --> 00:47:23.400
you do, do you know my
watching google it? Okay? Anyways,

532
00:47:24.039 --> 00:47:36.199
So besides BCC versus H versus Brisco
and FDR, I'm but my prediction is

533
00:47:36.280 --> 00:47:39.280
gonna be Lee will win on top. I don't like Shane Taylor, never

534
00:47:39.400 --> 00:47:44.960
had never will makes me feel good
when someone can take him down because the

535
00:47:45.079 --> 00:47:52.960
last time I seen Shane taking an
l was ar Fox and that and we

536
00:47:52.039 --> 00:47:57.239
know what Fox can do when he's
on, so he's his quickness and everything

537
00:47:57.280 --> 00:48:00.159
else. Take League, take a
tear. So I don't know, well

538
00:48:00.960 --> 00:48:05.679
that's gonna go. But I just
know, like like some people will say,

539
00:48:05.760 --> 00:48:09.960
it's gonna be a banger. That's
my Spice prediction. Taylor will lose

540
00:48:10.599 --> 00:48:16.159
Delee fair enough. I can't argue
that one either. That's that's a pretty

541
00:48:16.159 --> 00:48:22.639
good prediction. I'd go back to
the professional here with my prediction because my

542
00:48:22.719 --> 00:48:27.280
prediction also has to do with thunder
Rosa. Thunder Rosa was actually on a

543
00:48:27.480 --> 00:48:34.039
Texas morning like you know morning show
this this week where she was plugging the

544
00:48:34.559 --> 00:48:42.880
shows coming up and in Texas,
specifically the San Antonio show. I'm going

545
00:48:42.920 --> 00:48:47.639
to disagree with you just a hair
on this the professional I think, Tony,

546
00:48:47.800 --> 00:48:53.840
I think that thunder Rosa shows up
before the San Antonio show next week.

547
00:48:54.039 --> 00:49:00.719
I think she shows up this week
either on MT or Rampage or whatever,

548
00:49:02.840 --> 00:49:07.159
and issue is a challenge for next
week because she's back and she's ready

549
00:49:07.239 --> 00:49:12.079
to go. Just don't come out. I mean it makes sense if you're

550
00:49:12.079 --> 00:49:15.159
gonna have her go out, have
her go out with and have a match,

551
00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:21.280
don't have her just go out and
wave at the crowd and and whatnot.

552
00:49:21.719 --> 00:49:27.719
She's gonna get The pop question is
well she get a world title shot,

553
00:49:28.760 --> 00:49:36.880
you know, two weeks before.
It makes a lot of sense because

554
00:49:37.079 --> 00:49:40.639
you can use that to sell tickets
as opposed to, like you just said,

555
00:49:42.079 --> 00:49:50.679
of Wave pretty much opponent for worlds
in. Yet I don't. I

556
00:49:50.719 --> 00:49:54.920
don't even think they like hinted at
her even having a match that world in.

557
00:49:55.760 --> 00:50:01.599
I mean they not really you Mariah
May just standing around looking cute.

558
00:50:02.079 --> 00:50:06.679
I mean, I think the only
championship match we have set for World's End

559
00:50:06.800 --> 00:50:12.559
is mg F and Samoa Joe right, that's correct, Yes, a Big

560
00:50:12.679 --> 00:50:16.199
Bill and Ricky Starks. Nothing,
Tony Storm nothing, Julia Hart nothing.

561
00:50:16.360 --> 00:50:21.079
I think she is going to fight
Abadon, but I don't think they're going

562
00:50:21.159 --> 00:50:23.800
to keep that. That's not a
pay per view match. That's a ram

563
00:50:23.920 --> 00:50:30.000
page match. If he asked me
with Julia r Da like a you know,

564
00:50:30.360 --> 00:50:35.960
these a zero hour match, if
you will, Yeah, it's between

565
00:50:36.000 --> 00:50:39.079
Abdon and Heart. Yeah, but
you know, Heart has already proven.

566
00:50:39.239 --> 00:50:44.559
I mean she spent in the last
proper pay per views and did really well

567
00:50:45.440 --> 00:50:50.280
and you know, gotten really good
reactions, really good match ratings for women's

568
00:50:50.320 --> 00:50:55.960
matches. The Heart match, as
a matter of fact against stat Lander was

569
00:50:57.079 --> 00:51:04.480
rated much higher, and the Tony
Storm went over what the hell did Tony

570
00:51:04.519 --> 00:51:08.559
Storm beat Sorea? I think so
I can't remember who the champion was,

571
00:51:10.719 --> 00:51:20.320
sore because remember like Kelson that oh
it was a car. Oh sorry Sia,

572
00:51:20.400 --> 00:51:22.960
my my bad. But no,
I mean it was That's what I'm

573
00:51:22.000 --> 00:51:25.599
saying. It was so inconsequential I
could remember it. I mean I had,

574
00:51:25.880 --> 00:51:29.440
you know, rain cramp. I
just couldn't remember who the who the

575
00:51:29.519 --> 00:51:32.599
champion was that Tony Storm took it
off of, you know, right well,

576
00:51:34.440 --> 00:51:37.599
but I also still don't remember too
where Sara was when the belt that

577
00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:42.920
you know, all in London how
become a sensation over the country too,

578
00:51:43.599 --> 00:51:45.639
that that matters, but just it's
just that's one thing possed in my mind

579
00:51:45.679 --> 00:51:52.559
for twenty twenty three. Yeah,
moments of I mean, I mean when

580
00:51:52.599 --> 00:51:57.559
you I mean, when you look
at it, I mean, we were

581
00:51:57.639 --> 00:52:01.239
doing some stories, that's not the
problem, but they're you know, look,

582
00:52:01.760 --> 00:52:07.159
the Continental Classic is going to culminate
at World's end, and that is

583
00:52:07.239 --> 00:52:13.480
a titled belt right there. So
so the World MGS title defense against Mojo

584
00:52:13.679 --> 00:52:17.159
is not the only title up for
grabs right now. We already know that

585
00:52:17.280 --> 00:52:22.920
the Continental Classic title is going to
be up for grabs, so, you

586
00:52:22.960 --> 00:52:25.360
know, and that's a I think
they're making a big deal out of that,

587
00:52:27.960 --> 00:52:32.599
and I think that they're holding off
on any other championship bounts just so

588
00:52:32.719 --> 00:52:38.280
that it doesn't take away from the
