00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:07.519
Tonight was the New Year's Smash episode
of Dynamite, the final AEW Dynamite of

2
00:00:07.639 --> 00:00:13.000
twenty and twenty three and the final
Dynamite before World's End on Sunday at the

3
00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:18.559
Nassau Coliseum, and we had some
developments tonight. In the final segment of

4
00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:22.839
the show, was supposed to be
MJF and Samoa Joe teaming up to defend

5
00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:28.760
the Ring of Honor World tag team
titles against the Devil's Henchmen, two of

6
00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:32.880
the Devil's mass Men, and you
knew that it was going to be more

7
00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:36.560
of an angle than a match for
two reasons. Number One, MJF is

8
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:40.640
dealing with an injury and so you're
very stupid to put him in an actual

9
00:00:40.759 --> 00:00:45.079
match three days before the pay per
view. That would be dumb. But

10
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:49.439
also they sent them out there at
ten pm, and you knew the overrun

11
00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:53.520
wasn't going to be more than maybe
five or six minutes, and so the

12
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:58.439
question was were we going to get
a title change or not. MJF came

13
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:02.039
out to the ring, but there
was no Samoa. So Oa Joe was

14
00:01:02.119 --> 00:01:04.799
laid out in the back. He
was writhing in pain. He was holding

15
00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:11.879
his knee right This all sounds very
familiar. We've seen the Devil initiate attacks

16
00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:15.120
like this in the past. MJF
said, I don't care, I'm gonna

17
00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:21.200
defend the titles anyway. And what
ends up happening is they pinned the aw

18
00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:26.879
World Champion on television three days before
he defends his world title in the main

19
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:34.159
event on Saturday. Now, there's
a good aspect to that, and there's

20
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:38.680
a very bad aspect to that.
The very bad aspect to that is that

21
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:45.079
you just pinged your world champion by
two nameless, faceless individuals on television three

22
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:51.480
days before your pay per view to
tell the same story that you just told

23
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:56.359
a month ago at Full Gear,
where the champion is hurt, he's wounded

24
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.040
going into his main event match against
Switchblade ja Oh. Here we are now

25
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:05.640
the following month, it's the same
story again, where the champion is wounded

26
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:12.479
going into his main event on pay
per view. The good aspect to what

27
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:15.879
they did is they finally got those
Ring of Honor World tag team titles.

28
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:23.080
The fuck off of MJF. Sayonara, finally he's rid himself of the Ring

29
00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:29.400
of Honor tag team titles that I
like. But the way they went about

30
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:32.960
doing it questionable. However, as
it turned out, Samoa Joe was not

31
00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:37.800
hurt, and we got the big
reveal which you could see coming, you

32
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:39.759
know, as the devil flashed on
screen when it was all over, and

33
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:45.759
the words pleasure doing business with you
appeared on screen and you could see it

34
00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:51.080
coming, and Samoa Joe smashes MJF
right across the back with a steel chair,

35
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:53.400
lays him out, and the final
parting shot of the show to night

36
00:02:53.439 --> 00:02:59.199
is Samoa Joe's standing over his dead
body with his foot planted firmly on Mjf's

37
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:05.439
chest, holding up the AW World
Heavyweight title. Samoa Joe unlikely to become

38
00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:09.439
the AW World champion at world's end
on Saturday. All I will say is

39
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:15.319
this, I was not convinced.
Everybody was trying to convince me, Oh,

40
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:19.280
it's Adam Cole. Adam Cole is
the devil. It's Adam Cole,

41
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:23.000
and I was unconvinced because I said, first of all, Adam Cole is

42
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:27.680
I do believe that Adam Cole is
hurt. And I also just looked at

43
00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:30.199
it and said, well, you
know, they're dragging this out for so

44
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:31.560
long. I wonder if they're going
to go in a different direction. They're

45
00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:35.879
gonna give us a little bit of
a twist. I just can't see it

46
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:42.280
being Adam Cole if he is that
injured. The only logical explanation that one

47
00:03:42.319 --> 00:03:45.240
would be left with, based on
the way they went off the air with

48
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:49.560
this show tonight, is that Adam
Cole is the Devil. I guess with

49
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:53.319
an outside shot that it could potentially
be Britt Baker. A lot of people

50
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:59.039
have thought maybe it's Britt Baker.
That's really the only logical conclusion one could

51
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:02.599
be left with, because if you
remember when this all started and MJF finally

52
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:06.080
agreed to give Joe his shot,
let Joe be his partner and defend the

53
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:10.000
titles, go ahead and give Joe
that shot, it was Adam Cole.

54
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:13.479
Adam Cole is the one who talked
him into it in the first place.

55
00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:17.240
It's about what Joe wasn't just working
with the devil for one week. He's

56
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:23.519
been working with him this entire to
or hurt this entire time. So I

57
00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:26.639
will sit here and tell you now
that yes, actually the person, the

58
00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:30.120
name or names that make the most
sense for the Devil reveal would be Adam

59
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:34.560
Cole and or Britt Baker because then
you could tie it all together. All

60
00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:39.680
I know is this, we need
to get the Devil reveal on Saturday at

61
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:44.600
World's In. We've heard Wardblow talking
about how your world is coming to an

62
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:47.720
end, right, really teasing that
he's tied in and involved in this in

63
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:50.959
some way. If he's not the
Devil, that he could be, you

64
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:55.920
know, one of the Devil's henchmen. And I'm looking at the big picture

65
00:04:55.959 --> 00:04:58.199
here, Okay, how could this
all play out? If it all plays

66
00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:01.560
out on Saturday? Are we looking
at Adam Cole and or Britt Baker as

67
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:05.879
the Devil? And we're looking at
Matt Tavin and Mike Bennett as your new

68
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:10.160
Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions, Because I'll bet you anything they were

69
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:15.879
the ones supposedly under the mask,
right under the black masks tonight. They're

70
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:18.560
probably the new Ring of Honor World
Tag Team Champions. You get Adam Cole

71
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:23.519
leading Roddy and the Kingdom, and
Wardlow could be tied in there as well,

72
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:28.480
because he doesn't like MJF. That
may be your crew. It could

73
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:31.439
be Cole and Britt with the Kingdom
and Wardlow that could be the Devil's Crew.

74
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:36.360
That's what's looking likely to me here
as we head into this weekend.

75
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:40.920
But that was how they went off
the air. The best part of the

76
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:45.439
show tonight was nothing that happened in
the closing segment. The best part of

77
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:49.240
tonight's show was the Continental Classic.
And this really has been the case for

78
00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:56.000
Dynamite and Collision for that matter,
for the entire month. Continental Classic has

79
00:05:56.040 --> 00:06:01.759
given us some great professional wrestling on
television, and Danielson has had just match

80
00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:06.240
after match after match, just going
out there and delivering every single time.

81
00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:10.800
We saw Mark Briscoe going out there
week after week, even though we couldn't

82
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:14.519
win a fucking match to save his
life until the very end, having great

83
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:17.800
match after great match. So many
different people you could say that about in

84
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:21.319
this tournament, but the one person
that we should have been looking at from

85
00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:25.399
day one is the one that I
think a lot of people, myself included,

86
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:28.079
really were not looking at. And
it was the guy who was the

87
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:30.199
one to initially go out there and
say, I'm putting my belts on the

88
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:34.759
line this tournament. I'm putting my
ring of Botter World Championship in my new

89
00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:39.839
Japan Strong open Weight title on the
line. It was Eddie Kingston, right.

90
00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:42.639
He was the one who made that
announcement in full gear last month.

91
00:06:43.399 --> 00:06:47.839
This entire tournament has been the Eddie
Kingston story from day one. It was

92
00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:51.920
never about Swerve Strickland, it was
never about Jay Wye's, it was never

93
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:57.560
about anybody except Eddie Kingston. That
came into full focus on the show tonight

94
00:06:57.879 --> 00:07:01.920
because we are now heading into a
final this weekend of John Moxley one on

95
00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:05.000
one with Eddie Kingston, and I
know a lot of people are going to

96
00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:09.839
be very upset that Swerve didn't win, or Jay White for that matter.

97
00:07:09.879 --> 00:07:12.120
I was kind of pulling for a
Jay White whin. To be honest with

98
00:07:12.160 --> 00:07:15.480
you, did I have any great
interest in seeing John Moxley go all the

99
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:18.079
way to the finals? Fuck?
No, What does John Moxley need to

100
00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:23.480
be in the finals for Until you
see the story that they're telling play out

101
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:28.319
tonight and that promo segment, and
then it makes sense. I loved what

102
00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:31.639
they did with the Continental Classic tonight, both matches and the promo we got

103
00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:36.800
with Moxley and Kingston, which I
will talk about was excellent. So you

104
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:43.160
take away the Continental Classic stuff and
this was not a good show, because

105
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:46.959
there really wasn't anything else on the
show that I would say was very gripping

106
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:50.399
going into this pay per view,
you take that stuff away. This tournament

107
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:57.480
has carried AW television now for over
a month, and I can only hope

108
00:07:57.519 --> 00:08:00.839
that as this tournament comes to a
close this weekend and we get that big

109
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:03.959
reset at the beginning of January,
as we kick off a brand new year

110
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:07.040
for AW, that Tony Kah has
got some really good stories and really good

111
00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:11.360
plans in place. He's not going
to be able to lean back and rely

112
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:16.959
on this tournament anymore. Starting in
January, we're going to turn the page

113
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:20.399
the calendar flips to a new month
and a new year, and I hope

114
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:24.279
that he's got some really solid stories
to take us into that Revolution pay per

115
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:28.480
view. At the beginning of March. Speaking of Revolution, one other thing

116
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:33.879
here, it became I think a
little bit clearer what direction they may be

117
00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:37.919
going in with Sting for his final
match. We may have gotten a very

118
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:41.279
big clue as to what Sting will
be doing and who he will be wrestling

119
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:48.240
at Revolution on March third. This
is your AW Dynamite review. It is

120
00:08:48.279 --> 00:08:52.840
Wednesday, December twenty seventh, twenty
and twenty three. I am the Solemn

121
00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:58.399
Monster. Thank you so much for
joining me for the final Dynamite screen of

122
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:03.399
twenty twenty three. Fun having you
guys along for the ride. Even when

123
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:05.600
you don't like Dynamite, right,
you always like the streets. So let's

124
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:11.440
have another good one tonight. Because
we opened with the Gold League final in

125
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:16.360
the Continental Classic, John Moxley,
Swerd Strickland, and Switchblade J White,

126
00:09:18.120 --> 00:09:22.559
all competing for a spot in the
finals at World's End on Saturday for the

127
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:26.200
Triple Crown. No time limit for
the two final matches that we had on

128
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:30.399
the show tonight. It's always been
twenty minute time limits for every other match

129
00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:33.039
in the tournament, not for either
one of the finals here tonight on the

130
00:09:33.120 --> 00:09:39.279
show. One thing I wanted to
point out they have started using this elevated

131
00:09:39.960 --> 00:09:43.480
hard camera angle, and I first
noticed it on Collision this past Saturday,

132
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:48.919
where it has sort of a downward
view of the ring, like an elevated

133
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:54.360
downward view instead of more kind of
more of a level view. They didn't

134
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:56.759
use it for the entire show,
In fact, they used it for very

135
00:09:56.799 --> 00:10:00.080
little of the show tonight, but
they did open with it. They came

136
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:01.279
back to it a little bit later
on, so it feels to me like

137
00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:05.039
they're just experimenting with something new.
I'm not really a fan of it,

138
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:07.759
but I will say, you know, for a company that gets a lot

139
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:13.240
of criticism of late for not doing
enough to differentiate itself from WWE and not

140
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:18.240
doing enough to make it an alternative
to WWE and every other promotion that we

141
00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:22.879
see on TV, I appreciate the
fact that production wise they're trying something different.

142
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:26.639
Even if it's something that I don't
like, at least they're trying something

143
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:30.480
different, So that aspect of it
I do like, and I want them

144
00:10:30.519 --> 00:10:33.480
to do that. I want them
to try and experiment with new things and

145
00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:37.639
new ways of shooting the show.
You never know what might stick, so

146
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:41.919
that aspect of it I like.
Did J White tried to exit the ring

147
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:43.519
once the bell rang. Swerve,
though, beat him to it and he

148
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:50.559
blocked his path. Moxley sent Jay
out to the ringside area, Swerve back

149
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:54.440
into the ring. He rolled up
Moxley for a quick two count. Moxley

150
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.000
and Swerve they ended up fighting at
ringside, and they teamed up to toss

151
00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:03.000
Jay over the barricade and into the
crowd. All three men ended up brawling

152
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:07.399
into the crowd here at the beginning
of this match. And I think it

153
00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:11.120
was ex Caliber on commentary who made
a comment saying, this is not what

154
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:13.600
I expected from this match. I
just thought, really, have you not

155
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:18.879
seen a John Moxley match. You've
called most of his matches in this company.

156
00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:22.559
How do you not see a John
Moxley match devolving into a brawl in

157
00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:28.080
the crowd? What have you been
watching? That's exactly what I expect from

158
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:33.440
a John Boxley match, especially a
match like this where there's no disqualifications in

159
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:41.039
a triple threat match. So Moxley
crouched Jay on a guardrail. Swerve ended

160
00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:45.080
up sitting Moxley down in a chair. He was biting at his forehead.

161
00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:48.440
He backed up a little bit and
he got him with the double knees.

162
00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:56.240
Taz said that referee Paul Turner was
being very lenient and he understood the stakes

163
00:11:56.919 --> 00:12:01.159
in this match. And again I
said, how is he being lenient if

164
00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:05.799
there's no disqualifications in this match?
Boy, that's mighty nice of him to

165
00:12:05.840 --> 00:12:11.200
be lenient. Can't disqualify them anyway. It's a triple threat match. He's

166
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:15.039
got no choice. All he can
do is tell them to get back in

167
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:16.600
the ring. If John Moxley looks
at him in the face and says,

168
00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:20.879
go fuck yourself, there's nothing he
can do except smile and say thank you,

169
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:26.919
sir. He may have done that. All three men got back to

170
00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:33.480
ringside and Jay Chopp blocked the back
of Moxley's leg. Swerve, who was

171
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:37.240
on the apron, drilled Jay,
who was on the floor with a knee

172
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:41.559
strike. All three men got back
into the ring. Moxley flipped off Swerve,

173
00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:46.200
who bit his finger in response.
Swerve sent both men to ringside.

174
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:50.480
Then he went up top and he
flew Tanahashi style with a high fly flow

175
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:56.480
took both men down on the floor
into a picture and picture break, a

176
00:12:56.480 --> 00:13:05.200
little tribute to the new President of
New Japan, Hiroshi tanahash Moxley. He

177
00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:09.080
flew in with a toepey on Swerve. When Noik came back from the break

178
00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:16.039
back inside, Moxley hit a stalling
pile driver for two and the anvil elbows

179
00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:20.039
followed with a transition into a key
lock, which Swerve was able to escape.

180
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:24.600
He went up top and when he
came off though, he dove into

181
00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:28.159
a kick and a paradigm shift for
a two count. So now Moxley was

182
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:33.080
very frustrated. He took Swerve outside. He went over by the table,

183
00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:37.879
over by the time keeper's arey.
He pulled the tablecloth off and whatever it

184
00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:39.279
was he was about to do,
he was about to give him a power

185
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:43.960
bomb. Maybe whatever it was,
Jay White comes over and hits him in

186
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:48.480
the back with a steel chair,
and then he smashed Moxley's leg he was

187
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:52.320
on the ground. He smashed his
left leg with a chair. So the

188
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:56.559
John Moxley threat was temporarily neutralized.
In the ring, it was down to

189
00:13:56.639 --> 00:14:03.279
White and Swerve. Rope four point
fifty splash by Swerve a few moments later

190
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:07.159
connected, but Moxley flew into break
up the count with a stump to Swerve.

191
00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:11.559
All three men were down. That
took us into yet another picture and

192
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:16.759
picture. After the break, Moxley
got Jay White trapped in a sleeper hole.

193
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:18.159
Swerve, though, came flying in
and broke it up with a house

194
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:24.799
call kick. Swerve avoided a blade
runner, Jay White avoided a JML driver,

195
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:30.559
and he sent Swerve hurling towards Moxley, who took his head off with

196
00:14:30.600 --> 00:14:35.279
a King Kong lariat. Then Moxley
immediately got dropped with a blade runner and

197
00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:39.320
j White tried for the pin.
Swerve, though interrupted to break up the

198
00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:46.120
count, so the match continues to
j White. Now he's frustrated. He

199
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:48.799
goes outside the ring and he grabs
the chair, brings it inside. He

200
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.720
flattens Moxley with it. Then he
wedges it in between the buckles between the

201
00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:56.440
top rope and the middle rope.
He went to go send Swerve into it.

202
00:14:56.480 --> 00:15:01.840
Swerve, though, reversed him headfirst
into the share Hard and Swerve then

203
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:09.000
got a super close pinfall attempt on
Moxley and they went out it toe to

204
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:13.360
toe. Swerve tried for the JML
driver, Moxley fought out of it.

205
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:16.679
Strickland got him down. He went
up top he was setting up for the

206
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:22.080
Swerve stump. Here comes j White. He gives him a shove and he

207
00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:28.360
sends Swerve crashing down to the floor. Moxley in response, nearly beheads Jay

208
00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:31.360
White with a lariat and then hits
the death rider. He goes with the

209
00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:35.840
pins. Swerve cannot make it back
into the ring in time to break up

210
00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:43.039
the fall, and John Moxley wins
the Gold League and moves on to the

211
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:48.759
finals of the Continental Class. This
was a hell of a match. Let's

212
00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:52.240
talk about that first. The match
itself was great, back and forth.

213
00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:58.960
We had some dramatic near falls in
here. I love the match, and

214
00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:03.240
I will say that at least they
did not pin Swerve. I didn't think

215
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:07.039
that they would because that would have
been insanely stupid, but they did not

216
00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:11.120
pin Swerve. Now, I was
not upset about him losing, because it

217
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:15.559
became very clear after collision on Saturday
that Swerve was not winning this match.

218
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:22.039
After Keith Ley b Brian Cage on
Saturday, he was in the ring,

219
00:16:22.080 --> 00:16:23.759
he cut a promo. He had
a cinder block in the ring. He

220
00:16:23.840 --> 00:16:30.200
never mentioned Swerve's name, but he
was clearly talking about Swerve, about what

221
00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:36.600
Swerve did to him a year ago
when he came off the top rope with

222
00:16:36.639 --> 00:16:41.279
a Swerve stomp stomped the cinder block
across his chest. I think back then,

223
00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:45.159
Swerve still had what was it,
Trench and what was the other guy's

224
00:16:45.240 --> 00:16:48.519
name? Remember when he had his
two Why don't you call him his his

225
00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:53.799
heavies, his minions, whatever you
want to call them. Remember, one

226
00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:59.000
of the guys was Parker Boudreau from
NXT he got fired and aw picked him

227
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:03.480
up or so we thought he was
going to be one of Swerves guys and

228
00:17:03.679 --> 00:17:07.480
his faction. Yeah, that didn't
last very long. That was a year

229
00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:11.839
ago. They're coming back to this
now. But Keith Lee made it very

230
00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:15.079
clear he was not done with Swerve
and he was going to be coming to

231
00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:21.960
Dynamite to confront him. I thought
he was going to cost him the match,

232
00:17:22.920 --> 00:17:23.920
but whatever they were going to do, I said, okay, well,

233
00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:27.039
obviously we're going to get Swerve and
Keith Lee at World's End because this

234
00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:32.720
guy's not winning in the match on
Wednesday. The only question is is it

235
00:17:32.839 --> 00:17:37.400
Moxley or Jay White that goes to
the finals. And I was thinking and

236
00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:41.880
pulling for Jay White because then we
either get a first time ever match with

237
00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:47.200
Jay White and Brian Danielson, or
we get a rematch between Jay White and

238
00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:51.960
Eddie Kingston from the match they had
in New Japan earlier this year when Jay

239
00:17:51.960 --> 00:17:56.079
White lost, and stipulation was that
if he loses, he can never again

240
00:17:56.119 --> 00:18:00.119
wrestle for New Japan. Of course, the way around that would be if

241
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:03.319
we got a rematch in the finals. In the World's End, j White

242
00:18:03.319 --> 00:18:07.880
wins the Triple Crown. The Triple
Crown is meant to be defended in aw

243
00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:14.359
Ring of Honor New Japan, right, that could be Jay White's way back

244
00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:18.599
into New Japan to wrestle some matches
in New Japan. So I would have

245
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:23.680
been fine with the Eddie Kingston final
or a Jy Brian Danielson final on Saturday.

246
00:18:25.839 --> 00:18:27.559
But then I look at what they
did later in the show, because

247
00:18:27.559 --> 00:18:37.079
at this point I'm like Moxley,
like, why, why is that necessary

248
00:18:37.200 --> 00:18:41.519
they have John Moxley in the finals
of this tournament. Then I see what

249
00:18:41.559 --> 00:18:44.079
they did later in the show,
and I have a different viewpoint on it.

250
00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:48.319
We'll get into that when I talk
about the Eddie Kingston Brian Danielson.

251
00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:51.720
But the match itself here to open
the show, this was a fucking great

252
00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:56.319
match. Now, when they came
back from the break, Tony Schavani was

253
00:18:56.359 --> 00:19:02.720
in the back with Prince Nana in
a very pissed off swerve Strickland. Strickland

254
00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:07.160
said he wanted this so bad as
the Continental Classic was breathing life back into

255
00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:12.319
the wrestling business. Then he brings
up keigh Lee wanting to pay him a

256
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:17.160
visit tonight, and he said,
look, I'm not busy on Saturday.

257
00:19:18.119 --> 00:19:19.920
I'm gonna be on Long Island and
I'm not busy. I got nothing to

258
00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:25.880
do. Travanni said that, actually, keithh Lee is here tonight, but

259
00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:29.119
he said that in case he misses
Swerve, and then he pulls out a

260
00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:33.000
contract. He says he has this
contract for a match at World's End,

261
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:38.079
and Prince Nanna was furious because this
did not get his approval. They did

262
00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:41.799
not run this by him first,
and Swerve conned him down and said,

263
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:47.640
let's see if he shows up on
Saturday, and they walked up and they

264
00:19:47.640 --> 00:19:51.440
put a graphic after this, they
put a graphic up on screen showing Swerve

265
00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:53.480
against Keigh Lee. So apparently,
even though he didn't sign the contract,

266
00:19:55.000 --> 00:19:57.240
the match was already made official.
Apparently there was no need for a contract

267
00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:00.799
in the first place, because Tony
Kahn in the said, you know what,

268
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:06.279
put the graphic up. We're doing
this match. Here's the thing I

269
00:20:06.319 --> 00:20:10.680
don't understand. Keith Lee said,
I'm coming to Dynamite on Wednesday. I'm

270
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:14.039
gonna be taking your house down brick
by brick, right, which I took

271
00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:18.079
that to mean if he doesn't attack
Swerve, he might attack Prince Nana next

272
00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:21.880
right, he took out Brian Cage
on Saturday, so maybe he's gonna threaten

273
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:23.960
to take out Prince Nana and that's
going to be a distraction. Like there

274
00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:27.319
were any number of boys they could
have gone with this. We never saw

275
00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:32.440
Keith Lee on the show tonight,
and yet Tony Shavanni and this promo said,

276
00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:36.119
well, actually Keith Lee is here
tonight, but in case he misses

277
00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:38.440
you, I happened to have this
contract on me. Well, if Keith

278
00:20:38.559 --> 00:20:42.319
Lee was there tonight, there,
where the fuck was he? It just

279
00:20:42.359 --> 00:20:45.640
makes it look like he's afraid of
this guy. If Keith Lee was there,

280
00:20:45.759 --> 00:20:48.799
why did he need Tony Shavanni to
give him the contract? Why couldn't

281
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:53.240
he show up? Why couldn't he
go face to face with Swerve hand him

282
00:20:53.279 --> 00:20:57.400
the contract? Now, if something
happened and Keith Lee couldn't be there,

283
00:20:57.400 --> 00:21:00.480
he got sick. I don't know
what the deal is. I don't know

284
00:21:00.480 --> 00:21:03.160
why they said he was there.
If they knew he really wasn't there,

285
00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:07.039
or worse he was, and they
just didn't use him, that doesn't make

286
00:21:07.079 --> 00:21:10.480
any sense to me at all.
So I'm not sure why they even had

287
00:21:10.519 --> 00:21:15.200
Tony Shavani reinforce the idea that he
was there. That was very lame.

288
00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:19.200
I'll tell you something that's even more
lame, though. You know what else

289
00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:23.359
is lame the fact that they did
that angle I mentioned a year ago on

290
00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:27.680
television and you expected Keith Lee to
miss a few weeks, right, it

291
00:21:27.720 --> 00:21:33.480
was an injury angle. We never
got the match. Keithley eventually came back,

292
00:21:33.839 --> 00:21:37.359
no match, no match. They
had him doing other things. They

293
00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:42.400
had him doing tag team matches with
Dustin Rhodes. Now lately they seemed to

294
00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:45.400
be giving him a little bit of
a push as a singles I know he

295
00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:51.960
wrestled Shane Taylor on the Ring of
Honor pay per view recently. Good for

296
00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:55.319
him. It'd be nice to see
Keith Lee get a singles push. But

297
00:21:55.359 --> 00:21:57.279
here's what I want to know.
Why did it take a year to get

298
00:21:57.279 --> 00:22:02.559
back to this. Why do they
expect that people are still going to care

299
00:22:02.599 --> 00:22:06.119
about this in the way that maybe
they did a year ago twelve months later.

300
00:22:07.160 --> 00:22:10.480
That's why it makes me think there
was some kind of a health issue

301
00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:14.079
involved here. But it's not like
Keith Lee just vanished from television. It

302
00:22:14.160 --> 00:22:18.039
wasn't being active. He was active
it's just they just moved on. Now

303
00:22:18.039 --> 00:22:22.920
they're revisiting a dead angle. Swerve
feels like a man on the ascent.

304
00:22:23.240 --> 00:22:30.200
This feels like it's beneath him.
This feels like he's actually going backwards.

305
00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:33.839
We're gonna get the match finally,
I guess, better late than never.

306
00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:38.079
We're gonna get Swerving Keith Lee at
world's end. It only took a year

307
00:22:38.079 --> 00:22:44.880
to get the match done. I
don't understand it, but here we are.

308
00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:52.680
We're getting Swerving Keith Lee. This
weekend, Renee was on stage and

309
00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:57.880
she welcomed Mariah May and wanted to
know why she attacked ReHO last week,

310
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:03.160
and Mariah May said that she did
so to support Tony's Storm, which is

311
00:23:03.200 --> 00:23:08.119
something that all of us should be
doing. Mariah said that she did so

312
00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:15.079
well. She said in twenty twenty
three, it wasn't very glamorous for her.

313
00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:19.079
That's also part of the reason why
she's so supportive of Tony's Storm.

314
00:23:19.079 --> 00:23:22.440
But yet for her twenty twenty three, it wasn't a lot of glamour in

315
00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:26.799
this year. But twenty twenty four
is going to be a better year for

316
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:29.400
her, and that's why she's here
to announce that she's going to make her

317
00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:34.400
in ring debut next week. On
the very first Dynamite of twenty twenty four.

318
00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:38.400
There were people in the crowd who
booed, which was the only noise

319
00:23:38.440 --> 00:23:44.680
I heard for this entire segment.
But they booed. Reho's music hit,

320
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:48.799
and then the chase was on.
Mariah ran into the ring. ReHO chased

321
00:23:48.839 --> 00:23:52.599
after her. Mariah was begging off
and then here comes timeless Tony Storm and

322
00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:56.079
I love how when they showed Tony
Storm running down to the ring, they

323
00:23:56.079 --> 00:24:00.440
immediately switched to black and white.
Tony got into the ring, tried to

324
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:06.319
hit ReHO with her aw Women's title. ReHO ducked it, and then Tony

325
00:24:06.400 --> 00:24:10.119
ended up in the ropes in position
for the six to one nine. Luther

326
00:24:10.279 --> 00:24:12.759
is standing there instead of doing something
to actually rescue this woman, He's just

327
00:24:12.799 --> 00:24:15.759
standing right in front of her,
going no, no, no. ReHO

328
00:24:15.920 --> 00:24:19.039
comes off the ropes. Tony gets
out of the ring just in time.

329
00:24:19.160 --> 00:24:23.400
Luther then pulls her to safety.
Riho goes up to the top, drops

330
00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:27.200
them both with a cross body block
to the floor, and then the segment

331
00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:33.200
ended with ReHO posing with the women's
championship in the ring. That is going

332
00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:37.359
to be your Women's World title match
on Saturday. It's fine, it's someone

333
00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:41.359
for Tony Storm to beat. The
story is not Tony Storm and ReHO.

334
00:24:41.839 --> 00:24:48.160
The story is Tony Storm and I
was gonna say May Young, That's definitely

335
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:52.599
not the story. The story is
Tony Storm and Mariah may That is the

336
00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:56.359
longer term story that they're telling here. Although I am still holding out hope

337
00:24:56.359 --> 00:24:59.960
that we will get another Tony Storm. Jamie Haterman, I'm still waiting for

338
00:25:00.079 --> 00:25:03.039
Jamie Hater to come back. I
can't believe she's been gone for half the

339
00:25:03.160 --> 00:25:07.240
year. I remember when she first
got hurt. They made it sound like,

340
00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:11.000
oh, she's got a little shoulder
trouble, nothing too serious. Seven

341
00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:14.440
months later, this woman is still
gone. How bad was that injury.

342
00:25:15.759 --> 00:25:18.319
Hopefully we get her back very so. Hopefully we get her back in time

343
00:25:18.359 --> 00:25:22.200
for Revolution. But those of you
who don't like Rejo, you're not gonna

344
00:25:22.200 --> 00:25:26.960
have to worry because Rejo will be
defeated on Saturday and Tony will move on

345
00:25:27.039 --> 00:25:33.359
to the next So calm yourself down. Well, the Rejo regime is gonna

346
00:25:33.359 --> 00:25:41.400
come after you. We got a
video package for Miro who said that once

347
00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:47.480
the Continental Classic was finished, he
would look to fight Androd l Idolo.

348
00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:52.680
He doesn't want to fight Androde because
he's a client of his wifes, which

349
00:25:52.759 --> 00:26:00.200
doesn't sound right. His wife has
been has been managing Androde's that's what he

350
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:03.519
means. That's what he means by
client. That could be taken so many

351
00:26:03.519 --> 00:26:08.119
different ways, but that's not why
he wants to wrestle Androde. He doesn't

352
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:11.400
want to wrestle on because he's a
client of his wife's. He wants to

353
00:26:11.400 --> 00:26:17.359
fight him because Androde is an asshole. And so that match is now official

354
00:26:17.400 --> 00:26:19.960
for Worlds and we didn't have too
many matches official for this pay per view

355
00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:25.440
coming into this week. This is
what AW does most of the time.

356
00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:27.839
They wait until the week of and
then they finalize half the car. That's

357
00:26:27.880 --> 00:26:32.039
what they did tonight. We got
the rest of the card filled out tonight

358
00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:34.839
here three days before the pay per
view. By the way, I should

359
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:41.880
mention this CJ. Perry Miro's wife, for those of you who don't know,

360
00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:45.640
she was in the hospital last week
with a pretty serious, pretty nasty

361
00:26:45.680 --> 00:26:51.400
infection in her finger. She says
she gotta I got it from a splinter.

362
00:26:51.480 --> 00:26:53.920
I guess at work. She was
at a taping. I don't know

363
00:26:53.960 --> 00:26:59.680
how she got the splinter, and
somehow it developed into a very serious infection

364
00:26:59.759 --> 00:27:02.480
in her finger, and she posted
the photo, which I didn't need to

365
00:27:02.480 --> 00:27:04.839
see, but she posted it,
and it was all It was all nasty

366
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:10.160
and the problem is the infection started
traveling up her arm. That's not good.

367
00:27:10.680 --> 00:27:14.079
It sounds like a staff infection.
So she was in the hospital.

368
00:27:14.119 --> 00:27:15.559
She underwent surgery. I know.
They sent her home the other day,

369
00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:19.839
so she must be on the mend. So hopefully she's doing better. That

370
00:27:21.200 --> 00:27:25.839
could turn into something very bad,
very quickly. So thankfully she seems to

371
00:27:25.880 --> 00:27:30.440
be doing okay. Tony Schavani was
in the ring for this next segment,

372
00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:37.039
and Tony said that he was told
they would be doing a celebration for Boxing

373
00:27:37.079 --> 00:27:41.279
Week. Now, for those who
don't know, Boxing Day is a national

374
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:45.240
holiday in Canada the day after Christmas
every single year. Of course, today

375
00:27:45.359 --> 00:27:48.799
was December twenty seventh, not December
twenty six, so they turned it into

376
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:52.759
Boxing Week. Is that a thing? I thought it was just Boxing Day?

377
00:27:53.720 --> 00:27:59.119
Were they just taking creative license with
that? According to him, it

378
00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:03.319
was Boxing Week, and he introduced
Don Callous into Don Kallis family. He

379
00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:10.200
comes out with Powerhouse Hobbs, Kenoski, Takeshta, and Kyle Fletcher, who

380
00:28:10.279 --> 00:28:15.359
just won the Ring of Honor television
title of Final Battle. So they had

381
00:28:15.400 --> 00:28:21.640
four easels set up in the ring
behind Tony and behind everybody with photos or

382
00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:26.680
paintings you know, that were covered
by a black tarp. Callous immediately took

383
00:28:26.720 --> 00:28:30.240
the microphone away from Shravanni and said
that he had something important to say.

384
00:28:32.519 --> 00:28:34.200
He said, there's been a lot
of family stuff going on outside of the

385
00:28:34.200 --> 00:28:40.720
wrestling business the past two weeks and
it's been a difficult time for him.

386
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:44.839
At times like this, you need
your family and he could not have gotten

387
00:28:44.880 --> 00:28:48.200
through this without having his family with. I thought he was going to insult

388
00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:52.880
Kenny Omega for being in the hospital. He never mentioned Omega. He has

389
00:28:52.880 --> 00:28:57.039
to celebrate Boxing week in Canada.
He got them some gifts and he unveiled

390
00:28:57.160 --> 00:29:03.559
the first painting, which was of
him looking ripped with Powerhouse Hobs. His

391
00:29:03.599 --> 00:29:07.960
gift for Takeshta was one of him
and Takeshta Takeshi I think, had like

392
00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:11.240
a Samurai sword. And then Callous
was sitting down in front of him and

393
00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:18.920
he had the Roman reigns Samoan tribal
tattoos on his body. Then the next

394
00:29:18.960 --> 00:29:22.119
photo was him. The next painting
was of him with Kyle Fletcher. He

395
00:29:22.200 --> 00:29:26.759
was missing the tattoos, so anyway, he says, his family feels complete.

396
00:29:27.880 --> 00:29:33.400
Sammy gavar is music and outcomes Sammy
for the first time since becoming a

397
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:37.400
father, and he did not look
happy. Fatherhood will do that to you.

398
00:29:38.759 --> 00:29:41.920
It was also his first time back
on TV since the concussion that he

399
00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:47.480
suffered at Wressel Dream. We have
not seen him since. Then. Callous

400
00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:51.079
said, it's like Christmas all over
again. Sammy is here, and Sammy

401
00:29:51.119 --> 00:29:56.279
cut him off and said, a
long time, no talk. Don Callus

402
00:29:56.279 --> 00:29:59.400
said, you didn't get the gift
I sent you. He said, well,

403
00:29:59.440 --> 00:30:00.640
I got a gift for you.
I've been hauling it around for the

404
00:30:00.680 --> 00:30:03.400
last two months thinking that you were
actually going to come back to work.

405
00:30:04.240 --> 00:30:07.640
And he told Sammy to go ahead
and pull the tarp off of his painting,

406
00:30:07.680 --> 00:30:12.079
and he did, and it was
a painting of Sammy holding his newborn

407
00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:18.480
baby and all the other members of
the Callous family were standing behind him in

408
00:30:18.519 --> 00:30:21.839
the It reminded me of what was
that movie Three Men at a little lady.

409
00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:26.400
Remember that? Remember that movie?
So Ted Danson and it was Steve

410
00:30:26.759 --> 00:30:30.880
Gutenberg and who was the other one? I forgot who the other one was?

411
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:36.519
This whole family with Sammy and the
new baby. So Sammy was upset

412
00:30:36.599 --> 00:30:38.039
and he asked him who the hell
told you to put my baby on there?

413
00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:44.119
Callus said, let's be honest,
you're not exactly mentally capable of being

414
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:47.400
a parent. You're gonna need all
the help you can get, and so

415
00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:53.599
that's what we're here for. Sammy
said, we had Will Hobbs over here,

416
00:30:55.279 --> 00:31:00.680
who beat Chris Jericho. We have
Kenoski Takeshta, who has two wins

417
00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:06.640
over Kenny Omega. Yeah, who's
pointed that out to you recently? Two

418
00:31:06.640 --> 00:31:11.279
wins over Kenny Omega. But nobody
remembers that because Callus has to always make

419
00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:15.799
it about himself. And then he
complained that he hasn't heard from Callous at

420
00:31:15.839 --> 00:31:22.920
all since he got concussed. Tom
Sellick, there you go. How could

421
00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:27.759
I forget? Magnum p I,
Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg, and Ted

422
00:31:27.839 --> 00:31:33.680
Danton. Callous talked about his disappointment
that Sammy dropped the ball when he got

423
00:31:33.759 --> 00:31:37.160
hurt, and then he was gone
on maternity leave, and yes, that's

424
00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:42.480
not that's not my mistake, he
said, maternity leave. So he gave

425
00:31:42.559 --> 00:31:48.680
him the choice, either choose your
other family or you choose the don Kallis

426
00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:52.119
family. But before he answers,
he says, I want you to think

427
00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:56.160
long and hard about your answer,
because if you answer this question wrong,

428
00:31:56.880 --> 00:32:00.400
you're gonna be remembered as just a
big failure, just as big of a

429
00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:05.680
failure as you are as a parent. Sammy didn't like that, so he

430
00:32:05.759 --> 00:32:08.759
knocked Callous down on his ass,
and of course the other members of the

431
00:32:08.839 --> 00:32:14.359
Callous family then jumped. They pounced
on Sammy and attacked him, laid a

432
00:32:14.400 --> 00:32:20.480
beat down on him until Chris Jericho
runs down to the ring with his baseball

433
00:32:20.559 --> 00:32:24.200
bat and the heel scattered. Jericho, Uh, I think he got a

434
00:32:24.200 --> 00:32:30.279
shot in on Takeshta. Didn't get
a shot in on Takeshta and Hobbes.

435
00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:34.519
I thought he hit both of them. But anyway, he then smashed three

436
00:32:34.640 --> 00:32:38.599
of the four paintings that were in
glass. Was it real glass? I

437
00:32:38.599 --> 00:32:42.519
don't know. Let's ask our friend
Jack, Jack was it real glass?

438
00:32:42.559 --> 00:32:45.039
Now? He says no, He
shakes his head no, but he smashed

439
00:32:45.079 --> 00:32:49.480
each of them, and whatever it
was glass went flying, so poor Grandma

440
00:32:49.640 --> 00:32:52.960
Esther sitting in the front row might
have some shards glass in her eye now.

441
00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:55.839
Before he got to the fourth portrait, though, he gave the bat

442
00:32:55.880 --> 00:33:01.960
to Sammy. He let Sammy do
the honors, and Sammy smashed the painting

443
00:33:02.000 --> 00:33:07.559
of him with the baby and everybody
else. So Jericho and Sammy come face

444
00:33:07.599 --> 00:33:10.839
to face. Last time we saw
them, Sammy had turned on him and

445
00:33:10.839 --> 00:33:15.519
gone healed. This time it looked
like they were coming in for a handshake,

446
00:33:15.599 --> 00:33:17.799
and Sammy instead went in and he
gave Jericho a big old hug.

447
00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:22.160
So just like that, Sammy gabbar
back together with Chris Jericho once again a

448
00:33:22.200 --> 00:33:27.000
baby face. But the reunion did
not last very long because who comes out

449
00:33:27.079 --> 00:33:30.240
Ricky Starks and Big Bill. They
attacked both men from behind him, beat

450
00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:36.359
them both down. Now the lights
go out. Tony Kahn loves it when

451
00:33:36.400 --> 00:33:42.200
the lights go out. Lights come
back on, and it's Sting and Darby

452
00:33:42.279 --> 00:33:46.640
Allen in the ring. Sting has
his baseball bat. He clubs Big Bill.

453
00:33:46.680 --> 00:33:52.240
This was hilarious. So he hits
Big Bill with the baseball bat,

454
00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:59.000
and Bill now is standing there he
turns towards Jericho because the spot is that

455
00:33:59.119 --> 00:34:01.440
Jericho is gonna take his bat and
now he's gonna hit him with it.

456
00:34:02.200 --> 00:34:07.279
So he feeds himself into Jericho.
He's waiting and Jericho hits him with He's

457
00:34:07.319 --> 00:34:10.320
being hit with baseball bats, right, So what does he do instead of

458
00:34:10.360 --> 00:34:15.039
going down? No, Now he
gets hit the second time with the bat.

459
00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:19.360
Now he walks over towards Sting and
gives Sting his back and he waits

460
00:34:19.480 --> 00:34:22.079
for Sting to hit him with the
bat. Still does him go down,

461
00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:24.280
though, So then Sting takes the
bat, hits him in the knee,

462
00:34:24.280 --> 00:34:28.800
and finally Big Bill goes down.
It looked like he didn't know what was

463
00:34:28.840 --> 00:34:30.440
going on. And then finally he
rolled out of the ring. And you

464
00:34:30.480 --> 00:34:35.400
know, I'm like, way to
kill the baseball bag gimmick. I don't

465
00:34:35.400 --> 00:34:37.119
give a fuck a the guy's seven
feet tap. When you get hit with

466
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:40.280
a baseball bat, especially the second
and third time, you should go down

467
00:34:42.199 --> 00:34:45.119
instead of making it obvious that you're
feeding for your opponent. Finally this guy

468
00:34:45.159 --> 00:34:51.440
goes down, he rolls outside.
As far as what they did here,

469
00:34:52.119 --> 00:34:57.679
Tony Kahan was put in a tough
spot because he had already announced a tag

470
00:34:57.679 --> 00:35:00.079
team title match for this pay per
view coming up on SAT. It's gonna

471
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:05.639
be Chris Jericho and Kenny Omega against
Ricky Starks and Big Bill. Kenny Omega

472
00:35:05.719 --> 00:35:08.920
got stricken with diverticulitis. He ends
up in the hospital, right, Nothing

473
00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:13.880
Tony Khan can do about that.
Now, you can just take the title

474
00:35:13.920 --> 00:35:19.360
match off the show and not replace
it with anything involving those men and just

475
00:35:19.400 --> 00:35:22.280
wait for Kenny to heal up and
come back. Or you could take Jericho.

476
00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:25.440
You could put Jericho in a singles
match with Ricky Starks. It's already

477
00:35:25.480 --> 00:35:31.000
been done before Tony Kahn had to
go to a plan B. His Plan

478
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:37.239
B was to go with Sammy Gavar
being flipped back to babyface so that he

479
00:35:37.280 --> 00:35:42.440
could link back up with Chris Jericho. And, to be perfectly honest with

480
00:35:42.480 --> 00:35:45.280
you, if Kyle Fletcher now is
going to be a member of the Kallus

481
00:35:45.320 --> 00:35:50.760
family plus Hobbs plus Takeshka, there
really was no room left for Sammy anyway.

482
00:35:52.039 --> 00:35:54.559
Sammy's gonna feel like he's playing the
you know, the fourth man,

483
00:35:55.960 --> 00:36:00.719
fifth man, even behind Callus.
Callus is number one in that group,

484
00:36:00.800 --> 00:36:04.440
right, So sam you would be
number five, right, he doesn't need

485
00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:07.880
to be number five. So the
best thing for him, frankly, at

486
00:36:07.880 --> 00:36:10.239
this point was to get him out
of the group. So yes, it's

487
00:36:10.320 --> 00:36:14.480
ridiculous that they just turned him and
now they're turning him back, But you

488
00:36:14.480 --> 00:36:15.599
know what, I'm going to give
him a pass on that just because of

489
00:36:15.639 --> 00:36:19.960
the circumstances. And in that moment, what I thought is, Okay,

490
00:36:19.960 --> 00:36:23.519
well they flipped him because we're going
to get Jericho and Sammy against Ricky Starks

491
00:36:23.519 --> 00:36:29.000
and Big Bill because what did Jericho
say on television last week? Right?

492
00:36:29.039 --> 00:36:34.199
Do you remember what Jericho said?
Jericho said, I have a signed contract

493
00:36:34.440 --> 00:36:37.199
for a match and I think he
said tag team title match at World's End.

494
00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:39.679
So don't think you're going to be
getting out of it that easily,

495
00:36:39.800 --> 00:36:43.800
right, I still have an open
contract. I'm going to find myself a

496
00:36:43.840 --> 00:36:46.159
partner. So at the end of
this, you're thinking, okay, well

497
00:36:46.239 --> 00:36:52.480
that's the partner. They flipped Sammy
back. Jericho and Sammy now challenge at

498
00:36:52.559 --> 00:36:58.519
World's End for the tag team titles, except later in the show they announced

499
00:36:58.559 --> 00:37:02.000
that the match on Saturday is going
to be an eight man tag not for

500
00:37:02.079 --> 00:37:07.559
the tag team titles. I thought
the open contract was for the tag team

501
00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:12.920
titles. Apparently not, so now
we're getting an eight man tag instead.

502
00:37:12.960 --> 00:37:20.920
It's gonna be Sting, Darby,
Jericho and Sammy against Ricky Starts, Big

503
00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:27.320
Bill, Powerhouse Hobbs and Kyle Fletcher. Kyle Fletcher just him being in the

504
00:37:27.320 --> 00:37:32.239
match just screams, I'm taking the
pin. Team. Sting isn't losing.

505
00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:38.679
They mentioned the fact that Sting has
not lost a match of the twenty some

506
00:37:38.800 --> 00:37:43.599
odd matches he's had since he debuted
in this company. He has never lost

507
00:37:43.679 --> 00:37:50.119
the match. He's retiring in March. There's no drama here. Sting is

508
00:37:50.159 --> 00:37:53.119
not losing on Saturday. He might
look he could potentially lose in March.

509
00:37:53.280 --> 00:37:57.360
I still don't think he's gonna lose
that either. He could potentially lose in

510
00:37:57.400 --> 00:38:00.480
his last match and put somebody over, but he's not losing this weekend.

511
00:38:01.480 --> 00:38:06.800
So that's why Kyle Fletcher is likely
in the match. It better be.

512
00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:12.239
It better not be a case where
fucking Powerhouse Hobbs is gonna be the one

513
00:38:12.280 --> 00:38:15.559
taking the pin. But you know, again, it's just bizarre to me.

514
00:38:15.880 --> 00:38:20.719
I just think back to what Jericho
said last week and I guess Tony

515
00:38:20.760 --> 00:38:22.119
Kahan said, well, instead of
a tag team title match, we'll just

516
00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:24.880
do an eight mantag instead, so
we can get Stinging Darby on the show.

517
00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:29.039
I can't imagine that was the plan
from the get go. You know

518
00:38:29.079 --> 00:38:31.400
that it was going to be Jericho
and Omega and Stinging Darby is what it

519
00:38:31.440 --> 00:38:36.119
would have turned into. So I
don't get it. I don't understand why

520
00:38:36.119 --> 00:38:37.719
they didn't just turn it into Jericho
and Sammy. If they went through the

521
00:38:37.760 --> 00:38:44.559
trouble of doing the Sammy turn,
it just very bizarre. But there was

522
00:38:44.599 --> 00:38:50.280
a line in this promo where Sammy
mentioned, when talking about Don Kallis that

523
00:38:50.360 --> 00:38:54.559
everything is about him, and he
specifically mentioned you have Powerhouse Hobbs who beat

524
00:38:54.639 --> 00:39:00.320
Chris Jericho squashed him in fact,
and you have Kenny Omega losing twice to

525
00:39:00.400 --> 00:39:05.719
Kenoskate Takeshta, and basically you've squandered
those wins and made it all about yourself.

526
00:39:06.119 --> 00:39:08.960
They're taking reality and they're weaving it
into the story. Look, I'm

527
00:39:09.000 --> 00:39:14.519
glad that they're self aware, and
they mentioned that because I mentioned that for

528
00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:16.280
several weeks now. In fact,
I have a whole clip up on the

529
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:22.360
channel with the headline, what happened
to Takeshta. I've been wondering that myself

530
00:39:23.119 --> 00:39:27.960
three months after he beat Kenny Omega
actually probably closer to four months at this

531
00:39:28.039 --> 00:39:30.960
point at all out back to back, in fact, it all in and

532
00:39:31.000 --> 00:39:37.519
then all out Kenoski, Takeshta is
actually in a worse spot now than he

533
00:39:37.679 --> 00:39:43.559
was three months ago. How is
that even possible? You know, even

534
00:39:43.559 --> 00:39:45.199
if it was a case of,
well, you know, we may have

535
00:39:45.239 --> 00:39:50.679
had plans with Omega, Omega and
Jericho, we're gonna win the belts at

536
00:39:50.719 --> 00:39:53.440
World's End, and then maybe they
would have defended them against Hobbes and Takeshta.

537
00:39:54.239 --> 00:39:59.360
That's why Hobbes and Takeshta have been
teeming lately on Rampage a few weeks

538
00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:05.320
ago. Anyway, I'm not so
sure now because the obvious plan for Saturday

539
00:40:05.800 --> 00:40:07.159
is not the plan that Tony Khan
went would see, know what, I'm

540
00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:10.400
not gonna give him credit for something
that never happened. Maybe that was the

541
00:40:10.440 --> 00:40:14.320
plan, maybe it wasn't. All
I know is that Takesha is in a

542
00:40:14.360 --> 00:40:17.719
worse spot now than he was three
months ago. And what Sammy said in

543
00:40:17.760 --> 00:40:24.519
this promo is a shoot. It
is one hundred percent fact they have squandered

544
00:40:25.079 --> 00:40:30.000
whatever those victories were worth over Jericho
and Omega on television on pay per view

545
00:40:30.039 --> 00:40:38.199
have been squandered for no reason.
But at least they're self aware enough to

546
00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:43.159
admit it and weave it into this
promo here. But I said at the

547
00:40:43.159 --> 00:40:50.239
beginning of the review that Sting's opponent
or potential opponents for Revolution after this show

548
00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:54.320
tonight have come into focus a little
bit here because where I think this may

549
00:40:54.360 --> 00:40:59.559
be headed, Jericho and Sammy may
end up winning the tag team titles.

550
00:40:59.599 --> 00:41:01.400
I think a lot of it really
boils down to how long is Kenny Omega

551
00:41:01.440 --> 00:41:05.440
going to be out for? Because
he looked I mean when he posted from

552
00:41:05.440 --> 00:41:07.880
the hospital, he looked like he
was in a bad way, And diverticulitis

553
00:41:07.960 --> 00:41:12.119
is not something that you just bounce
back from in two weeks. He could

554
00:41:12.119 --> 00:41:14.559
be gone for a few weeks.
He could be gone for a few months,

555
00:41:14.760 --> 00:41:16.639
right, We just don't know how
long. But if they could get

556
00:41:16.679 --> 00:41:22.480
Kenny back relatively souit, I wonder
if the idea is to have the tag

557
00:41:22.519 --> 00:41:29.639
title switched over to Kenny and Jericho
in the match for Revolution, right to

558
00:41:29.679 --> 00:41:32.320
give Sting a match with some big
names and a big star power, and

559
00:41:32.400 --> 00:41:37.719
a big match for him to go
out on is Sting and Darby in Greensboro

560
00:41:38.239 --> 00:41:45.639
challenging for the AW tag team titles
against Chris Jericho and Kenny o'meaga. Now

561
00:41:45.679 --> 00:41:50.079
you could do Chris Jericho and Sammy
Gevara. Omega would be a bigger star

562
00:41:50.199 --> 00:41:53.039
goo to put in that match,
or it could very well be Ricky Starts

563
00:41:53.039 --> 00:41:55.599
in Big Bill. But to me, you know, for that to be

564
00:41:55.800 --> 00:42:01.079
the final match of Sting's career,
honest Lee, Jericho and Omega would pack

565
00:42:01.159 --> 00:42:05.880
more of a punch just from a
star power perspective. But it seems to

566
00:42:05.920 --> 00:42:08.719
me like Sting may be winning the
tag team titles in his final match and

567
00:42:08.800 --> 00:42:13.840
retiring his champion. I mean,
Tony Kahn revers him, and I think

568
00:42:13.840 --> 00:42:15.000
that he looks at Sting. I
don't think he wants to beat him at

569
00:42:15.000 --> 00:42:19.679
all. I think he wants Sting
to be the only man in AW history

570
00:42:19.719 --> 00:42:23.519
to come in and to retire undefeated. And he's probably gonna send Sting out

571
00:42:23.519 --> 00:42:27.840
with a tag team title win and
then after Revolution they could vacate the belts

572
00:42:28.519 --> 00:42:30.679
and have a tournament, right because
he loves tournaments, so they could have

573
00:42:30.679 --> 00:42:35.559
a tournament to cry new tag team
champions. That's where I think this is

574
00:42:35.599 --> 00:42:37.719
going. I mean, I never
thought Sting was going to be in a

575
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:43.000
singles match. He hasn't done a
singles match, right, They protected him

576
00:42:43.119 --> 00:42:45.079
and had him in tag team matches. I think, frankly, that's by

577
00:42:45.079 --> 00:42:50.960
Sting's choice. I don't know that
he trusts himself to have a long sort

578
00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:54.239
of you know, pay per view
singles match at this point. So Sting

579
00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:58.960
and Darby, instead of them wrestling
each other, Sting and Darby is partners

580
00:42:59.079 --> 00:43:01.840
winning the tag belt. I'm kind
of surprised, frankly, they haven't won

581
00:43:01.880 --> 00:43:07.519
the tag belts yet. I think
that's what Tony Conn is saving for Revolution,

582
00:43:08.119 --> 00:43:13.800
and I'm fine with that. Whoever
it's against Jericho and Omega, if

583
00:43:13.800 --> 00:43:21.159
it's Ricky and big Bill young Bucks, whoever it would be against sending Sting

584
00:43:21.199 --> 00:43:23.039
out like that, I think is
fine. I think that would be a

585
00:43:23.039 --> 00:43:28.360
cool way to send Sting out on
his way. Today's episode is sponsored by

586
00:43:28.480 --> 00:43:31.880
Betterhelp. It is the holiday season
and depending on your circle of friends or

587
00:43:31.880 --> 00:43:37.360
where you work, everyone has their
policies on gift giving and exchanging Christmas cards,

588
00:43:37.400 --> 00:43:40.679
secret santas, all that stuff.
I don't have to worry about any

589
00:43:40.679 --> 00:43:45.119
of that anymore since I work from
home now. But whether or not you

590
00:43:45.239 --> 00:43:49.639
give gifts during the holidays, you
need to also focus on giving to yourself,

591
00:43:50.199 --> 00:43:52.239
and this month is a great time
to do just that. Whether that's

592
00:43:52.280 --> 00:43:57.559
by going a little easier on yourself
during those tough moments, treating yourself to

593
00:43:57.599 --> 00:44:00.840
a day off, or starting therapy. Remember to give yourself some love this

594
00:44:00.960 --> 00:44:06.639
holiday season. Therapy offers a host
of positive benefits, especially when you're not

595
00:44:06.679 --> 00:44:08.760
feeling quite right, and that tends
to happen to a lot of people this

596
00:44:08.840 --> 00:44:14.000
time of year. It can empower
you to be the best version of yourself.

597
00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:16.800
So here's the deal. If you're
thinking of giving therapy a try,

598
00:44:17.280 --> 00:44:22.280
I recommend better Help. It's entirely
online. It's designed to fit conveniently into

599
00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:25.519
your schedule, and no matter how
busy you may be, just fill out

600
00:44:25.519 --> 00:44:29.960
a brief questionnaire to get matched with
a licensed therapist, and you can switch

601
00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:34.760
therapists for any reason at any time
at no additional charge. In the season

602
00:44:34.800 --> 00:44:38.519

605
00:44:51.599 --> 00:44:58.320
was backstage with Roderick Strong and The
Kingdom. They were showing off their bulletin

606
00:44:58.360 --> 00:45:02.199
board of who is and is not
the Devil all signs he said, pointed

607
00:45:02.239 --> 00:45:08.719
to MJF as the devil, and
he promised to expose Max. I have

608
00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:15.480
to assume that the bulletin board here
was inspired by It's Always Sonny in Philadelphia,

609
00:45:16.800 --> 00:45:21.679
the Pepe Sylvia thing. I'm sure
that was the whole point of doing

610
00:45:21.719 --> 00:45:24.639
the segment the way they did it. That's a famous scene from that show.

611
00:45:27.480 --> 00:45:30.599
Then we have the Continental Classic Blue
League Final with Brian Danigelson going one

612
00:45:30.639 --> 00:45:36.480
on one with Eddie Kingston. Loud
chance for Eddie Kingston. This was a

613
00:45:36.639 --> 00:45:42.559
very pro Eddie crowd here in Orlando. Booze for Danielson, yay's for Eddie

614
00:45:42.639 --> 00:45:47.320
Kingston. And they showed a replay
of Danielson grabbing and holding up a sign

615
00:45:49.440 --> 00:45:53.079
many weeks ago when he beat Eddie
in the Continental Classic and he grabbed a

616
00:45:53.119 --> 00:45:55.920
sign and you see it here in
the artwork Tonight. Shout out to Steve.

617
00:45:57.320 --> 00:46:00.480
He held up a sign from the
crowd that said Eddie is a bum,

618
00:46:00.719 --> 00:46:04.000
and they made it a point to
show that sign. It was like

619
00:46:04.039 --> 00:46:08.559
a flashing neon sign that said Eddie
is getting his wind back. Eddie is

620
00:46:08.599 --> 00:46:14.320
getting his wind back, because that
was the story. It's the redemption arc

621
00:46:14.400 --> 00:46:20.039
of Eddie Kingston in this tournament.
So Eddie hid an early saido supplex and

622
00:46:20.079 --> 00:46:23.079
then he wrecked Danielson on a suicide
died. Both men actually went backwards into

623
00:46:23.119 --> 00:46:29.480
the steel guard rail. Danielson battled
back and hit Kingston with a flying knee

624
00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:32.599
off the apron, and then Danielson
stood over him and taunted the crowd,

625
00:46:32.639 --> 00:46:37.480
heading into a picture and picture break. As if there was any doubt about

626
00:46:37.519 --> 00:46:42.039
who was playing the role of heel
in this match, Brian Danielson left no

627
00:46:42.159 --> 00:46:49.239
doubt. Danielson caught Kingston in the
labellock and Kingston reached the ropes to break

628
00:46:49.239 --> 00:46:52.639
the hold. Brian got Eddie up
on the top turn buckle facing the crowd,

629
00:46:52.679 --> 00:46:54.880
and Danielson joined him on the ropes. He was going to go for

630
00:46:54.920 --> 00:47:00.440
a side supplex in mid sup plex, though in mid stride Kingston turned his

631
00:47:00.519 --> 00:47:04.880
body and landed on top of Danielson. And Danielson sold it as if he

632
00:47:04.920 --> 00:47:07.199
had landed on the eye, because
he still has the it's not really a

633
00:47:07.239 --> 00:47:10.519
patch, but he's got the bandage
around the eye, so he sold it

634
00:47:10.559 --> 00:47:14.920
like Eddie landed on the eye.
We got a double down here, took

635
00:47:14.960 --> 00:47:19.400
us into picture and picture, and
during the picture and picture, both men

636
00:47:19.440 --> 00:47:24.760
came face to face and Danielson just
spat right in Eddie's face. Then we

637
00:47:24.840 --> 00:47:29.559
got a chop battle between the two
of them, and they were just brutalizing

638
00:47:29.639 --> 00:47:35.159
each other, and Kingston got Brian
down on his knees and just kept chopping

639
00:47:35.199 --> 00:47:39.199
away and chopping away, and Danielson's
chest was all bruised and bloody underneath the

640
00:47:39.280 --> 00:47:45.920
skin, but he grabbed Kingston and
he delivered a shoulder capture supplex for an

641
00:47:45.920 --> 00:47:50.880
ear fall. So now Danielson starts
laying in the yes kicks and then Eddie

642
00:47:50.920 --> 00:47:54.719
Kingston, from his knees, looks
up and spits in Brian Danielson's face right

643
00:47:55.159 --> 00:47:59.559
just for what Danielson did to him. He spat right back in his face.

644
00:48:00.039 --> 00:48:05.079
So Kingston ends up turning Danilson inside
out with a lariat. He followed

645
00:48:05.079 --> 00:48:09.199
that up with a Northern Lights bomb
but Danielson kicked out and they mentioned on

646
00:48:09.320 --> 00:48:14.519
commentary that's how Kingston beat Andrade in
the main eventive collision this past weekend.

647
00:48:15.760 --> 00:48:20.199
So Danielson connected with the bussaiku knee, He stacked Eddie for the pin and

648
00:48:20.320 --> 00:48:24.480
Eddie Kingston got a shoulder up to
stay alive in this match. After this,

649
00:48:24.599 --> 00:48:29.599
Danielson started raining down the hammer in
at anvil elbows. Bryce Remsburg is

650
00:48:29.599 --> 00:48:31.440
there to check on Eddie and make
sure he's still conscious or else he's gonna

651
00:48:31.480 --> 00:48:35.480
call it off. Eddie is telling
him no, no, no, I'm

652
00:48:35.519 --> 00:48:38.440
fine, I'm fine. And then
Brian looked to the crowd and said it's

653
00:48:38.480 --> 00:48:45.360
time to kick this man's headed,
and Bryce was and he proceeded to do

654
00:48:45.519 --> 00:48:49.360
just that. Bryce Remsburg again is
checking on him to make sure are you

655
00:48:49.800 --> 00:48:53.599
are you alive? Are you conscious? Can you continue? And just to

656
00:48:53.639 --> 00:48:58.679
show that in fact, he is
still in this he lifted his middle finger

657
00:48:58.960 --> 00:49:02.400
up at Brian Dangels and Danielson had
a nice little smile at that. He

658
00:49:02.519 --> 00:49:07.920
enjoyed that loud chance of Eddie.
Brian then backed up into the corner and

659
00:49:07.960 --> 00:49:13.559
when he came in for another busaiku
knee, he ran right into a spinning

660
00:49:13.639 --> 00:49:16.760
backfist and then a half and a
half soup plex. There was another wild

661
00:49:16.800 --> 00:49:22.760
backfist that connected, and then Kingston
hit a Kuwata style power bomb with a

662
00:49:22.840 --> 00:49:28.519
high stack to pin Brian Danielson and
win the Blue League Final. That sends

663
00:49:28.559 --> 00:49:34.039
him to the finals of the Continental
Classic on Saturday to challenge his good friend

664
00:49:34.840 --> 00:49:38.400
John Moxley, who made his way
down after and before I even get into

665
00:49:38.400 --> 00:49:43.559
the postmatch though, let me just
talk about this match. Great great stuff.

666
00:49:44.119 --> 00:49:47.360
I enjoyed this even more than the
opener. This was a fantastic battle.

667
00:49:47.920 --> 00:49:51.559
This was better than the match these
two had on television a few weeks

668
00:49:51.599 --> 00:49:53.400
ago, and I thought that was
an excellent match. They topped it.

669
00:49:53.559 --> 00:49:59.280
This was even better. It helped
that the crowd was firmly behind Eddie because

670
00:49:59.360 --> 00:50:00.920
Eddie is the under dog in this
tournament, which sounds kind of weird,

671
00:50:01.000 --> 00:50:04.599
because Eddie is the one who came
into this and said, I have two

672
00:50:04.639 --> 00:50:07.360
titles, I'll put them both on
the line. He's the champion, he's

673
00:50:07.400 --> 00:50:09.840
the defending champion. How could he
be the underdog? Well, that's the

674
00:50:09.840 --> 00:50:15.760
story they've been telling with him,
and so the fact that the fans were

675
00:50:15.800 --> 00:50:20.039
so into it and they were so
behind Eddie. You would hope that that

676
00:50:20.199 --> 00:50:22.800
was the case, otherwise it would
kind of fuck with the whole story.

677
00:50:23.039 --> 00:50:28.000
But it was great. And again
Danielson had been like bullying this guy heading

678
00:50:28.039 --> 00:50:30.519
into this match. You don't have
enough heart, You're not the kind of

679
00:50:30.519 --> 00:50:32.360
person. You're not gonna beat me, You're not going to go to the

680
00:50:32.400 --> 00:50:37.000
finals of this thing. And in
the end he took that and he shoved

681
00:50:37.000 --> 00:50:38.440
it right back in his face and
said, fuck you, Yes I can.

682
00:50:40.400 --> 00:50:44.960
So I thought the match was fantastic. We get to the postmatch.

683
00:50:45.320 --> 00:50:49.239
John Moxley comes down to the ring
to check on Danielson, his fellow Blackpool

684
00:50:49.320 --> 00:50:52.559
Combat Club member. Then he looks
up and he locks eyes with Eddie Kingston

685
00:50:53.559 --> 00:50:58.079
and he grabs a microphone and he
says, Eddie, all I've ever asked

686
00:50:58.079 --> 00:51:02.360
of you is one hundred percent your
best. And for a guy who's angry

687
00:51:02.360 --> 00:51:05.880
at the whole world, you sure
do have a lot of people who love

688
00:51:05.920 --> 00:51:08.239
you. Yeah, listen to these
people. Listen to this crowd. Right,

689
00:51:09.039 --> 00:51:14.239
everyone here in Orlando loves Eddie Kingston. Aw Fans across the country,

690
00:51:14.280 --> 00:51:17.599
across the world, they love Eddie
Kingston. Everyone on Saturday at World's End

691
00:51:17.679 --> 00:51:22.320
is gonna love Eddie Kingston. He
said, they deserve your maximum effort.

692
00:51:23.039 --> 00:51:28.239
The problem is, I know you
better than you know yourself. I know

693
00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:32.440
that you can't beat me, and
you know that you can't beat So you've

694
00:51:32.440 --> 00:51:37.760
already lost, You've already given up. You're already making excuses. But that's

695
00:51:37.800 --> 00:51:42.400
not gonna fly this time. A
couple of years ago, I gave you

696
00:51:42.440 --> 00:51:45.119
the shot of a lifetime and I
let you off the hook. I let

697
00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:47.559
you go out on your shield.
I let you die a warrior's death when

698
00:51:47.559 --> 00:51:52.239
I didn't have to, because I
wanted you to come back stronger, because

699
00:51:52.239 --> 00:51:55.679
I believed in you. This time, you're not gonna get one single favor.

700
00:51:57.320 --> 00:52:00.000
You want to be a triple Crown
champion, just like all you're here,

701
00:52:00.519 --> 00:52:05.039
You're gonna have to earn every inch. And I assume that he was

702
00:52:05.280 --> 00:52:08.760
referring to their title match Your Full
Gear three years ago, so it was

703
00:52:08.760 --> 00:52:13.119
actually three years ago instead of a
couple of years ago. But I assume

704
00:52:13.159 --> 00:52:17.079
that's the match he was referring to. So then Eddie grabs the microphone out

705
00:52:17.119 --> 00:52:22.360
of Moxley's hand and he tells him
You've talked enough goes. Let me tell

706
00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:29.320
you something, dog, don't come
out here and treat me like your young

707
00:52:29.360 --> 00:52:32.320
boy, bitch yudah, because I'm
no young boy. Remember something, I'm

708
00:52:32.360 --> 00:52:37.480
your SEMPI I broke in before you. You're lucky I let you breathe.

709
00:52:37.760 --> 00:52:40.800
But you're right. I hate myself
more than I hate anyone else. But

710
00:52:40.880 --> 00:52:45.920
on Saturday, the King of the
Bums is gonna push you. You told

711
00:52:45.960 --> 00:52:50.239
me one time when I wanted to
quit aew, You're not allowed to You're

712
00:52:50.239 --> 00:52:53.199
not allowed to quit because we need
guys like you around to shape the younger

713
00:52:53.239 --> 00:52:59.000
guys. I'm gonna give you everything
I have. You better show your fighting

714
00:52:59.079 --> 00:53:01.920
spirit. I'm gonna show you mine, and I'm gonna bust you up and

715
00:53:02.159 --> 00:53:08.079
enjoy it. That he said,
that's my outline. Tofer to tell him,

716
00:53:08.440 --> 00:53:12.559
that's my outline, play my music, and they did, in fact

717
00:53:12.559 --> 00:53:16.400
play the man's music. Wow,
that was a great fucking promo. That

718
00:53:16.920 --> 00:53:23.239
right there is a promo to sell
you on a pay per view match from

719
00:53:23.280 --> 00:53:29.440
two guys who were masters at John
Moxley there. I can't tell you how

720
00:53:29.440 --> 00:53:32.400
many times over the years that John
Moxley and I feel like even if you

721
00:53:32.440 --> 00:53:37.760
are not someone who likes John Moxley's
matches. If you just don't like him,

722
00:53:37.880 --> 00:53:40.360
you don't like always a death match
guy. He can't wear you.

723
00:53:42.599 --> 00:53:46.039
His promos on these go home shows
going into so many pay per views over

724
00:53:46.079 --> 00:53:52.320
the years, have been excellent.
He knows how to take home a promo

725
00:53:52.719 --> 00:53:55.119
heading into a big pay per view
fight. This was no different hit.

726
00:53:55.159 --> 00:53:59.840
All the high notes made it very
clear. Look, you and I went

727
00:53:59.840 --> 00:54:04.119
to Tow three years ago. I
let you live this time. I'm not

728
00:54:04.159 --> 00:54:07.280
going to be so nice. You
can't win the big one. You can't

729
00:54:07.280 --> 00:54:13.280
beat me, basically is what he
was saying. I know you. And

730
00:54:13.280 --> 00:54:15.960
then Eddie with the comeback letting him
know you know every I mean, it

731
00:54:16.000 --> 00:54:20.840
was just it was perfect. It
was exactly what it needed to be to

732
00:54:21.000 --> 00:54:24.639
help sell you on this match.
So I thought that the match itself was

733
00:54:24.679 --> 00:54:30.880
excellent. I thought the promo was
great. And again, here's a guy

734
00:54:30.920 --> 00:54:34.079
who was on the brink of elimination
at the beginning of this tournament. You

735
00:54:34.079 --> 00:54:36.159
know, he put his belt up
on the line. He couldn't win a

736
00:54:36.199 --> 00:54:38.800
match to save his life at the
beginning of this thing. And I think

737
00:54:39.039 --> 00:54:43.519
there was one point during this tournament
where he was one loss away from being

738
00:54:43.519 --> 00:54:47.159
mathematically eliminated, and so from the
brink of elimination, you know, this

739
00:54:47.199 --> 00:54:51.280
guy was able to fight his way
back, the big valiant comeback all the

740
00:54:51.280 --> 00:54:58.039
way to the finals in New York. That's not New York City, it's

741
00:54:58.119 --> 00:55:02.880
Long Island, but still Boxley's an
Ohio guy. Eddie's a New York guy.

742
00:55:04.480 --> 00:55:06.880
Plenty of people from the city are
going to be coming in for that

743
00:55:06.960 --> 00:55:08.920
show. I don't know how many
tickets they have, so they'll probably have

744
00:55:09.000 --> 00:55:13.519
ten thousand or so in the building, which you know is a good number.

745
00:55:13.599 --> 00:55:15.679
I wouldn't call that great, but
it's a good number. I don't

746
00:55:15.679 --> 00:55:17.840
know what they have it set up
for. I know the capacity is a

747
00:55:17.840 --> 00:55:21.760
lot more than ten thousand, but
there's gonna be a lot of people coming

748
00:55:21.760 --> 00:55:24.679
in, a lot of Eddie Kingston
fans at that show on Saturday. He

749
00:55:24.800 --> 00:55:30.840
will be the hometown favorite at world's
end, and so it's the big comeback

750
00:55:30.880 --> 00:55:34.840
story, a guy who really nobody
gave a chance. If you watch the

751
00:55:34.840 --> 00:55:37.360
beginning of this thing, makes it
all the way to the funds, right,

752
00:55:37.360 --> 00:55:39.840
That's why I said before, he's
the underdog going into the finals this

753
00:55:39.880 --> 00:55:45.480
weekend, and not only now is
he one win away from winning the entire

754
00:55:45.559 --> 00:55:51.960
thing, but he's one went away
from not only keeping his titles, but

755
00:55:52.079 --> 00:55:58.000
winning this brand new championship that they're
creating out of thin air. And they're

756
00:55:58.039 --> 00:56:00.559
merging them all together and calling at
the triple which, as I've said,

757
00:56:00.719 --> 00:56:06.920
means nothing to me. That'll be
on Tony Kahn and aw a year from

758
00:56:06.920 --> 00:56:10.679
now when we come back for the
Continental Classic Part two, that by then

759
00:56:10.880 --> 00:56:15.920
this Triple Crown actually means something,
right, that's up to them to make

760
00:56:15.960 --> 00:56:21.079
him mean something. It means nothing
to me, But to Eddie Kingston that's

761
00:56:21.119 --> 00:56:24.559
a different story. Because Eddie Kingston
grew up a fan of All Japan Pro

762
00:56:24.639 --> 00:56:30.960
wrestling, not just Japanese wrestling.
He was a huge mark for nineties All

763
00:56:30.039 --> 00:56:35.920
Japan. The two most important things
to Eddie Kingston that he loves the most

764
00:56:35.960 --> 00:56:37.880
in his entire life, I'm sure
other than you know, is he married,

765
00:56:37.960 --> 00:56:40.840
or he's got a girlfriend or a
wife other than his mother or maybe

766
00:56:40.840 --> 00:56:46.960
his girlfriend's slash wife, the two
things most important to him DMX and nineties

767
00:56:47.000 --> 00:56:52.599
All Japan. And so here's this
guy now going into the finals where he

768
00:56:52.639 --> 00:56:58.719
could become a triple Crown champion.
You know that to him, that does

769
00:56:58.800 --> 00:57:05.119
mean something more than anybody else in
this entire tournament. It means something legitimately

770
00:57:05.440 --> 00:57:10.199
to Eddie Kingston. That's cool.
That's cool that he would make it all

771
00:57:10.239 --> 00:57:14.599
the way to the finals as somebody
who actually cares about that sort of thing

772
00:57:15.320 --> 00:57:20.599
and who would really mean something too
for real. What it also does is

773
00:57:20.639 --> 00:57:25.360
it ties up, or potentially ties
up, a longer term story between Kingston

774
00:57:25.400 --> 00:57:30.079
and Moxley. These two guys,
they've been friends, they've been enemies when

775
00:57:30.159 --> 00:57:34.360
Kingston first came into the company that
first year in twenty twenty, right,

776
00:57:34.400 --> 00:57:38.119
they went toe to toe and again
Moxley gave him a title shot. And

777
00:57:38.199 --> 00:57:42.760
even just a few months ago it
was Eddie Kingston trying to convince John Moxlay

778
00:57:42.840 --> 00:57:46.079
that he did not need to be
part of the Blackpool Combat Club with that

779
00:57:46.199 --> 00:57:51.920
jerk Claudia trying to convince him to
leave the faction. Right, that was

780
00:57:51.960 --> 00:57:53.119
only a few months ago, and
then it looked like they got away from

781
00:57:53.159 --> 00:57:57.760
that story. So now they're coming
back to it. At least that's not

782
00:57:57.840 --> 00:58:01.280
as egregious as waiting an entire year
like with Swerve and Keith Lee to come

783
00:58:01.280 --> 00:58:06.039
back to it. This has been
an ongoing story off and on involving these

784
00:58:06.039 --> 00:58:08.559
two. So you have this longer
term story here that hopefully they'll be able

785
00:58:08.559 --> 00:58:15.679
to tie up in some way on
Saturday at World's End. So I like

786
00:58:15.760 --> 00:58:20.280
that aspect of it. In one
promo, they sold me on the match

787
00:58:21.039 --> 00:58:23.159
where when Moxley won that opener at
the beginning of the show, it was

788
00:58:23.199 --> 00:58:30.079
like, Moxley, what about Jay
White again? Swerve? I wasn't expected,

789
00:58:31.679 --> 00:58:36.480
but now they have me interested.
They have my attention now, especially

790
00:58:36.559 --> 00:58:42.639
after that promo. I think Moxley
and Kingston could be could potentially steal the

791
00:58:42.679 --> 00:58:45.920
show on Saturday, especially if the
crowd is as into that match as I

792
00:58:45.960 --> 00:58:51.079
think they will be. And we'll
get to see with this Continental Classic belt,

793
00:58:51.079 --> 00:58:53.280
the Continental title I guess they're calling
it. We'll get to see what

794
00:58:53.320 --> 00:58:57.039
it looks like on Saturday. They've
had it covered up now for the last

795
00:58:57.280 --> 00:59:00.599
several weeks. I'm surprised, honestly, they have it right there at the

796
00:59:00.679 --> 00:59:04.159
head of the aisleway. I'm surprised
that there's been nobody in the crowd that's

797
00:59:04.199 --> 00:59:07.000
just went fuck. It just reaches
over and pulls, just pulls a pulls

798
00:59:07.039 --> 00:59:09.320
the cover off of it, just
to show everybody what it looks like.

799
00:59:10.440 --> 00:59:20.239
Not that I'm advocating that. Shout
out to Isa, I see you acknowledge

800
00:59:20.239 --> 00:59:23.840
her. There you go, she'll
appreciate that. After the break, Lexi

801
00:59:23.920 --> 00:59:28.119
Naire was in the back. She
was supposed to do a sit down interview

802
00:59:28.360 --> 00:59:32.119
with Christian Cage and Adam Copeland.
Christian Cage was there and we had Nick

803
00:59:32.159 --> 00:59:38.360
Wayne and as he calls her mother
Wayne, she was there. No Adam

804
00:59:38.400 --> 00:59:43.599
Copelan He's been waiting the whole show. Where's Copeland? Copeland finally shows up,

805
00:59:43.679 --> 00:59:46.840
He's not in the mood to talk. He immediately attacks Christian. He

806
00:59:46.920 --> 00:59:51.320
ended up beating him up into the
hallway, and we had the mid Card

807
00:59:51.360 --> 00:59:53.440
cruise show up to try to break
the two of them up, so we

808
00:59:53.519 --> 01:00:00.480
never did get the sit down interview
that we were promised. They didn't do

809
01:00:00.480 --> 01:00:02.920
a very good job though, because
Copeland broke free, ran down the hallway

810
01:00:02.960 --> 01:00:07.719
and ended up attacking Christian a second
time, and so the mid card crew

811
01:00:07.760 --> 01:00:10.800
once again comes over and breaks them
up, and Christian yelled out to him,

812
01:00:10.880 --> 01:00:15.239
called him a coward. I did
spot Brian Keith in there, and

813
01:00:15.239 --> 01:00:22.360
I spotted the von Erikson there as
well, but Chris Statlander against the newly

814
01:00:22.480 --> 01:00:28.920
healed sky Blue. Stokely Halthaway sat
in on commentary as ex Caliber talked about

815
01:00:28.960 --> 01:00:36.519
him trying to drive a wedge recently
between Chris Statlander and Willow Nightingale. Okay,

816
01:00:36.840 --> 01:00:40.559
if you say so. After a
delayed vertical supplex by Statlander, Stokely

817
01:00:40.639 --> 01:00:45.679
was talking about her toughness coming back
from injuries while his cousin Leon works at

818
01:00:45.719 --> 01:00:51.840
AutoZone and he twisted his ankle.
It has been out for five years.

819
01:00:52.519 --> 01:01:00.000
Well help Leon is collecting workman's comp
Skyblue gained control before picture and pictures.

820
01:01:01.320 --> 01:01:05.280
By the way, I have to
ask the question, since he says here,

821
01:01:06.400 --> 01:01:10.840
I wonder what she thought got Tell
me what you thought of Don Callous

822
01:01:10.880 --> 01:01:14.880
in those paintings, or at least
one of the paintings. He had the

823
01:01:15.000 --> 01:01:22.199
Roman Reigns tribal tattoos on himself.
She probably thought that was sacrilege. I'm

824
01:01:22.239 --> 01:01:24.920
sure that she wasn't very happy about
that. I thought he wore it.

825
01:01:24.920 --> 01:01:28.679
Well, I don't know. I
don't know what you think, but sky

826
01:01:28.760 --> 01:01:31.519
Blue got controlled before picture and picture. Statlander fired back with a series of

827
01:01:31.559 --> 01:01:37.079
closed lines and connected with a chaos
theory for two. Sky Blue answered with

828
01:01:37.119 --> 01:01:40.840
a Code Blue for a near fall. So sky Blue wanted a second rope

829
01:01:40.960 --> 01:01:46.000
hurrican Rana. Statlander countered it into
a power bomb and they fought in the

830
01:01:46.039 --> 01:01:52.639
corner after this, where sky Blue
slid out of a superplex attempt and then

831
01:01:52.679 --> 01:01:58.400
she took the referee, so now
the referee is distracted. Here comes Julia

832
01:01:58.480 --> 01:02:04.400
Hart the TBS chain from underneath the
ring, and Julia claubred Statlander with her

833
01:02:04.400 --> 01:02:07.920
TVs title, and sky Blue ended
up winning with an avalanche Code Blue.

834
01:02:08.960 --> 01:02:13.519
I thought the match was fine.
I have no idea what's going on here,

835
01:02:14.360 --> 01:02:17.639
nor is any of this interesting enough
for me to go out of my

836
01:02:17.719 --> 01:02:22.559
way to watch Rampage and Ring of
Honor on a weekly basis to follow this

837
01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:28.079
story. But this story has now
bled over into dynamite and I have no

838
01:02:28.119 --> 01:02:30.920
idea what's going on. But that's
fine. That's my fault. Like I

839
01:02:30.960 --> 01:02:35.880
said, if I was interested enough
to figure out what story is being told

840
01:02:35.880 --> 01:02:38.679
here, I would watch the other
shows, but I ain't got time for

841
01:02:38.760 --> 01:02:44.079
that. When it was over though. When the match was over, sky

842
01:02:44.159 --> 01:02:49.199
Blue and Julia attacked Statlander before Willow
Nightingale ran down to the ring and cleaned

843
01:02:49.239 --> 01:02:54.119
house, and as Heart and Blue
retreated up the ramp out, came Abadon,

844
01:02:54.599 --> 01:02:59.760
who is challenging Julia for the TVs
title at World's End on Saturday.

845
01:03:00.679 --> 01:03:04.480
And so that was a little preview
of what we are getting on set.

846
01:03:06.639 --> 01:03:10.079
Renee was backstage with Ruby, soho
and Sore Oh my god this segment.

847
01:03:13.000 --> 01:03:21.239
This segment backstage with Ruby and Sorea, and Renee asks Ruby about her match

848
01:03:21.320 --> 01:03:27.840
coming up with Marina Shaffir a rampage
of this bread and Sorea interrupted Ruby in

849
01:03:27.920 --> 01:03:31.079
mid sentence to tell her, look, she's so excited. I got a

850
01:03:31.159 --> 01:03:37.119
present for you because Ruby's birthday is
coming up next month, which is true.

851
01:03:37.119 --> 01:03:40.039
I believe Ruby's birthday is coming up
on January ninth, and so she

852
01:03:40.159 --> 01:03:44.920
got a gift. She got a
present for her. But what is this

853
01:03:45.039 --> 01:03:50.239
present? It is Harley. Now. I know there are some people who

854
01:03:50.239 --> 01:03:53.840
are watching this who really don't pay
attention to some of the mid card storylines,

855
01:03:53.880 --> 01:03:59.880
saying who the hell was that this? Harley Cameron. She was part

856
01:03:59.920 --> 01:04:04.360
of Qt's crew before QT said peace
out, I'm out of here. She

857
01:04:04.519 --> 01:04:08.159
was part of his crew. Remember, they did like a They even showed

858
01:04:08.239 --> 01:04:11.480
him music video that she did that
was back when they were feuding with the

859
01:04:11.480 --> 01:04:17.440
Acclaimed anyway, that's who that was. It was Harley Cameron. And she

860
01:04:17.480 --> 01:04:21.519
walks in. She's standing next to
Soirea, and she said, she's a

861
01:04:21.559 --> 01:04:26.400
good little helper who will do anything
she goes. She's really good with her

862
01:04:26.440 --> 01:04:31.719
hands, and Ruby said, yes, so I've heard. And then she

863
01:04:31.760 --> 01:04:35.800
suddenly got a phone call from Angelo
Parker, who I get you know in

864
01:04:35.880 --> 01:04:42.000
storyline is her new boyfriend here.
These two have been hot, they've had

865
01:04:42.000 --> 01:04:45.719
the hots for each other now for
weeks and weeks. So she goes off

866
01:04:45.719 --> 01:04:50.079
to talk to Angelo, and now
we're left with Sorea and Harley. So

867
01:04:50.119 --> 01:04:56.519
she asked Soirea, how did this
partnership come about with you and Harley?

868
01:04:57.760 --> 01:05:04.960
And then inexplicably, Charley Cameron pulls
out a butcher knife. I swear to

869
01:05:05.000 --> 01:05:11.320
god, she pulls out a butcher
knife, and Soreya then had to calm

870
01:05:11.360 --> 01:05:17.119
her down and they walked off.
What the fuck was this? Why did

871
01:05:17.159 --> 01:05:25.800
she pull out a butcher knife?
What are these stories that are playing out

872
01:05:25.840 --> 01:05:30.320
here on these other shows that I'm
clearly out of the loop on here is

873
01:05:30.360 --> 01:05:33.679
her background. Now she's a serial
killer? All of a sudden, is

874
01:05:33.679 --> 01:05:35.920
she gonna come down to the ring
with this butcher? As? You know,

875
01:05:35.960 --> 01:05:40.400
it's not Halloween. I mean,
I guess you got abadant walking around,

876
01:05:40.440 --> 01:05:44.000
so it's Halloween every week. I
don't know why she had a fucking

877
01:05:44.039 --> 01:05:47.800
butcher knife. That sounds like something
Tony Kahan should probably make a ruling on

878
01:05:51.039 --> 01:05:55.480
what it is. Banging myself on
the table here, I don't know what's

879
01:05:55.519 --> 01:05:59.480
going on here, and I'm all
spook. Now a butcher knife? All

880
01:05:59.559 --> 01:06:04.679
right? Then? The main event
was supposed to be MJF and Samoa Joe

881
01:06:04.960 --> 01:06:09.480
defending the Ring of Honor World Tag
She's the new butcher, Okay, I

882
01:06:09.480 --> 01:06:14.119
guess so yeah, I guess the
butcher is gone and we now have a

883
01:06:14.159 --> 01:06:23.480
new butcher. Her name is Harley. The main event was supposed to be

884
01:06:23.639 --> 01:06:27.559
MJF and Samoa Joe defending the Ring
of Honor World Tag Team titles against the

885
01:06:27.599 --> 01:06:33.239
Devil's Henchman with the Ring of Honor
Tag Team titles. By the way,

886
01:06:33.239 --> 01:06:38.760
there was an update today on liv
Morgan, who was pulled over in Florida

887
01:06:38.800 --> 01:06:44.400
a few weeks ago with the Devil's
Lettuce and some more information about the arrest.

888
01:06:44.480 --> 01:06:47.320
Apparently, she told the arresting officer
that the vate pen in the back

889
01:06:47.360 --> 01:06:50.960
seat that they found her with was
not hers. She says, I have

890
01:06:50.960 --> 01:06:54.440
a lot of people in and out
of my car. I don't know where

891
01:06:54.440 --> 01:06:58.960
that vate pen came from. And
then they arrested her. So that's the

892
01:06:59.039 --> 01:07:01.679
update on Livemore. That apparently was
the word going around the locker room that

893
01:07:01.719 --> 01:07:06.840
week that the bait pen didn't belong
to her. So I don't know why.

894
01:07:06.880 --> 01:07:10.480
That just made me think of Live
Morgan for some reason. So that's

895
01:07:10.519 --> 01:07:15.920
the update on Live Morgan. This
did not start until ten PM, so

896
01:07:15.000 --> 01:07:19.320
you knew this was going to be
more storyline than match. So the Devil's

897
01:07:19.320 --> 01:07:23.960
henchmen entered through the crowd. I
like, by the way, the little

898
01:07:23.960 --> 01:07:30.599
addition here they had the white Devil's
mask imprinted on the back of their shirts.

899
01:07:30.199 --> 01:07:32.800
I wonder if the Devil is going
to open up his own store on

900
01:07:32.880 --> 01:07:36.760
pro wrestling teas. Maybe he'll start
selling T shirts. Hey, you know,

901
01:07:36.840 --> 01:07:43.440
maybe he's got the entrepreneurial spirit.
I guess. Just so we're aware

902
01:07:43.519 --> 01:07:45.840
that they are with the Devil,
we needed to see the Devil's mask imprinted

903
01:07:45.880 --> 01:07:51.199
on the back of their shirts so
that MJF was out next, and then

904
01:07:51.320 --> 01:07:56.599
Samoa Joe. They played his music. The only problem is no Samoa Joe.

905
01:07:58.119 --> 01:08:00.440
So then they showed Joe up on
the big screen and he is lying

906
01:08:00.480 --> 01:08:05.960
on the ground in the back,
writhing in pain, clutching his knee and

907
01:08:06.119 --> 01:08:10.119
MJF says, you know what,
fuck this, I'm gonna do this match

908
01:08:10.199 --> 01:08:13.480
by myself. We're doing this right
now, by myself. Ring the bell.

909
01:08:14.840 --> 01:08:16.039
So they ring the bell and just
like that, the ring of honor

910
01:08:16.039 --> 01:08:19.359
World tag team titles are on the
line. Now. He had a wrap

911
01:08:19.720 --> 01:08:26.119
around his left shoulder, the shoulder
with the torn labram, and he was

912
01:08:26.119 --> 01:08:30.000
doing a fine job by himself.
Tried to pull the mask off one of

913
01:08:30.039 --> 01:08:32.560
the men when he got him outside
the ring, but while the referee,

914
01:08:32.560 --> 01:08:36.720
I guess, was being distracted on
the inside, another mass man rolls out

915
01:08:36.760 --> 01:08:41.399
from underneath the ring and he's got
a pipe and he hits MJF and the

916
01:08:41.399 --> 01:08:47.039
shoulder with the pipe, and then
the mass man crawls back underneath the ring.

917
01:08:48.319 --> 01:08:53.079
One of the legal mass men then
hit MJF. That got him on

918
01:08:53.119 --> 01:08:57.600
the apron. He hits MJF with
his own heat seeker, spikes him and

919
01:08:57.640 --> 01:09:00.720
then he covers him for the pin
with his feet on the ropes and the

920
01:09:00.800 --> 01:09:06.760
other mass man holding the feet for
leverage, and he pins MJF. He

921
01:09:06.960 --> 01:09:14.680
pins the AEW World Heavyweight Champion to
win the Ring of Honor World Tag Team

922
01:09:14.720 --> 01:09:20.760
Times three days before the pay per
view. After the match, all three

923
01:09:20.840 --> 01:09:27.159
henchmen attack MJF. When Samoa Joe's
music plays again, and here comes Samoa

924
01:09:27.239 --> 01:09:30.760
Joe and he's hobbling down to the
ring. People are trying to hold him

925
01:09:30.800 --> 01:09:31.520
back. No, no, no, you're heard. He's got a chair

926
01:09:31.560 --> 01:09:35.159
in his head and he hobbles all
the way down to the ring with a

927
01:09:35.239 --> 01:09:42.399
chair, and the henchman bail and
Joe helps JF. You could see where

928
01:09:42.439 --> 01:09:45.840
this was going. He helps MJF
to his feet. All of a sudden,

929
01:09:45.920 --> 01:09:49.439
the Devil appears on the big screen. It's the same footage of the

930
01:09:49.479 --> 01:09:53.640
Devil. It's like that little three
second video of the Devil. And then

931
01:09:53.640 --> 01:09:58.159
they take it off the screen and
then a message flashes on the screen that

932
01:09:58.279 --> 01:10:02.199
says pleasure doing business with you,
and they cut back to the ring and

933
01:10:02.319 --> 01:10:05.680
MJF is looking up at this and
he's all confused, and Joe is standing

934
01:10:05.720 --> 01:10:10.760
behind him with the chair and g
I wonder what's gonna happen next, And

935
01:10:10.920 --> 01:10:14.199
Joe gets this look on his face
and he takes the chair and he rears

936
01:10:14.279 --> 01:10:18.279
back and he smashes MJF in the
back with the steel chair. Down goes

937
01:10:18.319 --> 01:10:24.199
the champion. So then he takes
MJF into the corner and he says,

938
01:10:24.680 --> 01:10:27.279
I did this to you. He
picks him up, puts him on his

939
01:10:27.279 --> 01:10:30.920
shoulders, he delivers a musclebuster,
and then he picks up the aw World

940
01:10:30.960 --> 01:10:34.720
Heavyweight title and he plants his foot
on mjf's chest and he poses with the

941
01:10:34.800 --> 01:10:40.880
championship to close out the show.
The only positive thing about this is that

942
01:10:40.920 --> 01:10:44.640
they got the Ring of Honor World
Tag Team titles the hell off MJF because

943
01:10:44.640 --> 01:10:49.520
those belts weren't doing nothing for him, So that's a good thing. Everything

944
01:10:49.520 --> 01:10:58.159
else about this questionable at best.
Pinning MJF going into World's end really not

945
01:10:58.359 --> 01:11:00.600
very bright. And I know,
oh the story they're trying to tell.

946
01:11:01.640 --> 01:11:04.840
They're trying to tell the story where
MJF ment he just lost his Ring of

947
01:11:04.840 --> 01:11:11.319
Honor World Tag Team titles and broke
his promise to his best friend, and

948
01:11:11.399 --> 01:11:17.640
he got pinned and he's injured.
The stack is decked against him. No,

949
01:11:17.760 --> 01:11:23.319
the deck is stacked against MJF going
into World's End. That's the story

950
01:11:23.319 --> 01:11:26.479
they wanted to tell. I get
that, that doesn't make it good,

951
01:11:27.359 --> 01:11:30.960
but I see the story they're trying
to tell. It's the same story we

952
01:11:30.960 --> 01:11:33.760
got a month ago to Full Gear
where MJF was hurt. We didn't even

953
01:11:33.760 --> 01:11:36.640
know if he was gonna be able
to come out and wrestle Jay White in

954
01:11:36.680 --> 01:11:40.600
the main event, but he did
on one leg and he still won.

955
01:11:41.199 --> 01:11:44.880
So now here we are into another
pay per view and the champion is hurt,

956
01:11:45.399 --> 01:11:49.399
and all I could think is this
guy beat Jay White with one leg,

957
01:11:50.399 --> 01:11:55.560
so he's gonna have no problem with
Samoa Joe at World's End. He

958
01:11:55.600 --> 01:12:00.840
already beat Samoajo a Grand Slam when
he was healthy. Now he's got the

959
01:12:00.840 --> 01:12:06.039
bad shoulder, didn't stop him last
month against Jay White. He'll be fine.

960
01:12:09.520 --> 01:12:13.479
So again, the champion is wounded
going into another pay per view made

961
01:12:13.520 --> 01:12:18.039
event. So now we know that
Samoa Joe he's a devil, but he

962
01:12:18.119 --> 01:12:21.439
is not the devil. We can
rule him out. He is not the

963
01:12:21.479 --> 01:12:26.880
devil. That we now know.
The question is was he working with the

964
01:12:26.920 --> 01:12:30.000
devil this entire time or was it
just for the one week. My read

965
01:12:30.079 --> 01:12:34.520
on this is he's been working with
whoever this devil is this entire time.

966
01:12:34.720 --> 01:12:39.920
It's why I go back to Adam
Cole. And maybe it is in fact

967
01:12:40.119 --> 01:12:43.840
as simple as Adam Cole is going
to be the devil, which is what

968
01:12:43.880 --> 01:12:48.520
most people predicted from the word go
on this because Adam Cole is the one

969
01:12:48.560 --> 01:12:54.960
who talked MJF into giving Joe the
shot that he wanted. Joe said,

970
01:12:55.000 --> 01:12:58.399
I want to rematch for the aw
world title. I'll watch your back,

971
01:12:59.359 --> 01:13:01.039
I'll be your partner, I'll watch
your back. You got to give me

972
01:13:01.119 --> 01:13:04.039
my rematch. He was not going
to do it, he told Joe piss

973
01:13:04.119 --> 01:13:06.960
off. And it was Adam Cole
sitting in the ring in the chair,

974
01:13:08.000 --> 01:13:09.840
in his cast with his crutches.
He said, no, no, no,

975
01:13:09.840 --> 01:13:13.119
no, no no, You've got
to do this. You've got to

976
01:13:13.159 --> 01:13:16.680
give him his shot. So it
sounds to me like this has all been

977
01:13:16.720 --> 01:13:23.079
the plane the entire time. Adam
Cole maybe is the one pulling the strings.

978
01:13:23.119 --> 01:13:27.560
Maybe he is the devil after all. He and or Britt Baker end

979
01:13:27.680 --> 01:13:31.840
up being revealed as the Devil.
The thing is, I have no reason

980
01:13:31.960 --> 01:13:36.119
to doubt that the injury to Adam
Cole is as they say. He is

981
01:13:36.239 --> 01:13:42.079
hurt, He did have significant surgery. He very likely is not going to

982
01:13:42.079 --> 01:13:45.600
be able to get back in the
ring for a very long time. If

983
01:13:45.600 --> 01:13:49.199
that's the case, that means that
they're going to drag this story out even

984
01:13:49.279 --> 01:13:55.359
longer. This is a story that
needs It's not gonna end on Saturday,

985
01:13:55.359 --> 01:13:59.479
but this is a story that needs
an end to the current chapter and to

986
01:13:59.520 --> 01:14:02.039
turn to the next one already.
That has to happen at World's End this

987
01:14:02.119 --> 01:14:06.840
weekend, which means there has to
be a reveal of some kind, Like

988
01:14:06.960 --> 01:14:10.840
I know, the story doesn't just
end at World's End, but it has

989
01:14:10.880 --> 01:14:15.319
to open the next chapter of the
story as we go into this new year.

990
01:14:16.640 --> 01:14:19.960
Now, if that means that it's
Adam Cole and then he'll just be

991
01:14:20.079 --> 01:14:25.239
the Devil and send other people at
MJF until he's ready to come back.

992
01:14:25.319 --> 01:14:30.640
Yeah, but when is that going
to be or have they been swerving us

993
01:14:30.640 --> 01:14:33.960
and the injury wasn't as serious as
we were led to believe. I honestly,

994
01:14:34.000 --> 01:14:36.279
and I know this's gonna sound silly
if this is the one thing I'm

995
01:14:36.279 --> 01:14:41.479
basing this song, But like,
I just I know, I know how

996
01:14:42.159 --> 01:14:45.079
important his twitch audience is to him, and how he tries to keep the

997
01:14:45.079 --> 01:14:48.880
two things separate and be on the
up and up with them, And I

998
01:14:48.960 --> 01:14:54.000
really don't think that he would just
kind of lie to those people for the

999
01:14:54.000 --> 01:14:57.680
benefit of putting over a wrestling angle. Like everything about this has told me

1000
01:14:58.359 --> 01:15:00.479
that this guy really fucked up his
and he's going to be gone for a

1001
01:15:00.479 --> 01:15:04.159
while. And that's why Tony Kahan
had a pivot. We've had all these

1002
01:15:04.199 --> 01:15:13.399
weird turns in this story because whatever
his original plans were got shattered literally at

1003
01:15:13.439 --> 01:15:16.840
Grand Slam. But if it ends
up that he pulled the wool over our

1004
01:15:16.880 --> 01:15:21.359
faces and it's Adam Cole, and
Adam Cole is ready to get back in

1005
01:15:21.399 --> 01:15:26.640
the ring very soon, then hey, egg on my face. I really

1006
01:15:26.680 --> 01:15:29.960
don't think so, though, But
my god, do we need to reveal

1007
01:15:30.000 --> 01:15:32.520
already for this story and to move
it along to whatever the next chapter is

1008
01:15:32.560 --> 01:15:36.279
going to be. And as I
look ahead now, if it is Adam

1009
01:15:36.319 --> 01:15:41.439
Cole, I mean, Adam Cole, you have the Kingdom, and you

1010
01:15:41.520 --> 01:15:46.079
have Wardlow and that to me would
be at this moment the scenario that makes

1011
01:15:46.119 --> 01:15:49.159
the most sense to me. The
two men who won the Ring of Honor

1012
01:15:49.199 --> 01:15:54.600
World Tag Team titles tonight are nameless
and faceless. They could call them that

1013
01:15:54.680 --> 01:16:00.359
too, call one nameless the other
one faceless. It's it's probably the Kingdom.

1014
01:16:00.359 --> 01:16:03.119
It's probably Tavin and Bennett. I
always thought the end game was going

1015
01:16:03.159 --> 01:16:06.479
to be them getting the belts anyway. I mean, that's where I thought

1016
01:16:06.520 --> 01:16:10.640
this was going. I thought Roddy
was going to step in as the de

1017
01:16:10.760 --> 01:16:15.600
facto partner for mjf Right, Adam, I'm gonna step in for him for

1018
01:16:15.680 --> 01:16:18.880
even though I don't like this guy, and then he would do something to

1019
01:16:18.960 --> 01:16:23.439
throw one of their matches when they
were wrestling the Kingdom. The Kingdom win

1020
01:16:23.439 --> 01:16:27.079
the Ring of Honor World Tag Team
titles. They didn't do it that way,

1021
01:16:27.159 --> 01:16:29.319
But we may have just seen them
win the belts tonight. We just

1022
01:16:29.359 --> 01:16:32.800
haven't had the reveal yet. But
if I had to take a guess right

1023
01:16:32.880 --> 01:16:36.439
now as we go into this weekend, that would be my best guess as

1024
01:16:36.520 --> 01:16:43.000
far as who's involved here. That
we do have a pay per view on

1025
01:16:43.079 --> 01:16:45.640
Saturday, it is the final aw
pay per view, the final wrestling pay

1026
01:16:45.640 --> 01:16:49.199
per view of twenty twenty three at
His World's End from the Nasau Coliseum.

1027
01:16:49.600 --> 01:16:53.319
Let's do predictions. We have the
full card now. We had a bunch

1028
01:16:53.359 --> 01:16:56.159
of matches added to the card and
made official tonight. So let's run through

1029
01:16:56.159 --> 01:16:59.439
this and I will give you my
predictions as we go along. We have

1030
01:16:59.520 --> 01:17:02.119
the zero Hour Apprecia. They have
added a Tony Kahan special. They have

1031
01:17:02.199 --> 01:17:06.920
added a twenty man Battle Royal.
The winner of that Battle Royal will get

1032
01:17:06.960 --> 01:17:14.800
a shot at the TNT Championship anywhere, anytime my hands are clasped together.

1033
01:17:15.640 --> 01:17:20.520
Takeshta, Takeshka should win this Battle
Royal. They intentionally kept him by the

1034
01:17:20.520 --> 01:17:25.720
way out of the eight man tag
on Saturday. You would think it would

1035
01:17:25.760 --> 01:17:29.600
be Hobbs and Takeshta tagging with Ricky
Starks in Big Bill. No, no,

1036
01:17:29.600 --> 01:17:32.880
no, it's Hobbes and Kyle Fletcher
that leaves Takeshta without a match.

1037
01:17:32.920 --> 01:17:35.640
Put him in the Battle Royal.
Let him win the entire thing. Then

1038
01:17:35.680 --> 01:17:40.359
he'll have a TNT title match in
his back pocket. Then he'll have something.

1039
01:17:40.760 --> 01:17:43.319
Right now, he's got nothing,
at least, then he'll have something.

1040
01:17:45.760 --> 01:17:50.880
Hook is gonna defend his FTW Championship
against Wheeler Yudah. I got hooked

1041
01:17:50.880 --> 01:17:57.000
going over here. Julia Hart defends
the TBS title against Abadon. You can't

1042
01:17:57.000 --> 01:18:00.680
take the title of Julia Harts,
just one damn thing. Julie is going

1043
01:18:00.760 --> 01:18:06.600
to retain. Christian Cage defends the
TNT Championship no disqualification against Adam Copeland.

1044
01:18:08.399 --> 01:18:11.680
I think they do the title change. I think Copeland is gonna win the

1045
01:18:11.680 --> 01:18:15.079
TNT title. That'll be his first
championship, I believe since twenty eleven when

1046
01:18:15.119 --> 01:18:20.479
he retired the first time. They
could always stretch this out to a third

1047
01:18:20.520 --> 01:18:26.079
match. I think we're gonna get
a title change though on Saturday. And

1048
01:18:26.119 --> 01:18:29.680
by the way, if Copeland wins
the TNT title, and let's say Takeshta

1049
01:18:29.680 --> 01:18:32.720
wins the Battle Royal, if he
could cash in on that title shot anytime

1050
01:18:32.800 --> 01:18:38.079
anywhere, who's to say he doesn't
do it on Saturday, right, I'm

1051
01:18:38.119 --> 01:18:41.479
just saying technically, it's like a
money in the bank. He can cash

1052
01:18:41.520 --> 01:18:46.840
it in anywhere anytime. Copeland could
win and then immediately lose. Miro goes

1053
01:18:46.880 --> 01:18:53.359
one on one with Andrade l Edelo, and I'm thinking Andrad is getting the

1054
01:18:53.399 --> 01:18:59.640
win here. Tony Storm defends her
aw Women's World title against Rejo. Tony

1055
01:18:59.720 --> 01:19:03.880
Storm is not losing to ReHO.
I'm sorry, Riha regime members. Yes,

1056
01:19:03.960 --> 01:19:06.840
you've done well at for Combat.
There you go. You're gonna be

1057
01:19:06.840 --> 01:19:11.439
going out on your second tour.
Yeah. Rejo is not winning the championship

1058
01:19:11.479 --> 01:19:17.439
on Saturday. Stand down. Tony
Storm is retaining her title. Swerve Strickland

1059
01:19:17.880 --> 01:19:21.560
goes one on one with Keith Lee. A match that has been more than

1060
01:19:21.600 --> 01:19:28.000
a year in the making is finally
happening. It says if Tony Kahn awoke

1061
01:19:28.159 --> 01:19:30.520
from a coma, He's been in
a coma for a year. He woke

1062
01:19:30.600 --> 01:19:35.319
up and said, oh boy,
I better book this Keith Lee Swerve Strickland

1063
01:19:35.319 --> 01:19:39.920
match, and we're finally getting it
on Saturday now. I like Keith Lee.

1064
01:19:40.039 --> 01:19:42.800
I don't want to make it sound
like if Keith Lee wins, Swerve

1065
01:19:42.920 --> 01:19:47.000
is buried, Swerve is done.
Swerve was in the Continental Classic, he

1066
01:19:47.079 --> 01:19:51.920
lost to John Moxley. He failed
in the finals. This man should be

1067
01:19:51.920 --> 01:19:57.039
groomed for a World Championship match in
the first half of twenty twenty four.

1068
01:19:58.520 --> 01:20:01.079
I don't want to see Swerve go
worlds in and lose to keithh. Lee.

1069
01:20:01.720 --> 01:20:05.439
Swerve is a man on the ascent
right now. Keith Lee is not,

1070
01:20:06.880 --> 01:20:11.359
and I would like to see Keith
Lee get pushed. But this is

1071
01:20:11.359 --> 01:20:15.680
a match that Swerve should win.
Swerve needs a rebound win, and that's

1072
01:20:15.720 --> 01:20:17.439
the win that he should get on
Saturday. I'm picking Swerve to go over

1073
01:20:17.479 --> 01:20:21.119
in this match. I think anything
else would be a mistake. Doesn't mean

1074
01:20:21.159 --> 01:20:26.600
that he's buried, but he should
not be losing this match. He is

1075
01:20:26.600 --> 01:20:29.600
the one right now with the momentum. He is the one that should be

1076
01:20:29.720 --> 01:20:33.880
in line in these next few months
for a world title match. We have

1077
01:20:33.960 --> 01:20:38.199
Sting, Darby Allen, Chris Jericho, and Sammy Gebara. They're all going

1078
01:20:38.239 --> 01:20:41.479
to be teaming up to take on
Ricky Stark's Big Bill, Powerhouse Hobbs,

1079
01:20:41.479 --> 01:20:45.720
and Kyle Fletcher. So so much
for the open contract that Chris Jericho said

1080
01:20:45.760 --> 01:20:47.800
he had, presumably for a tag
team title match, I guess he's gonna

1081
01:20:47.800 --> 01:20:51.399
hold off on that. He's very
loyal to Kenny o'meag. He doesn't want

1082
01:20:51.439 --> 01:20:56.880
to wrestle for those titles without Kenny
had his son, so we're getting an

1083
01:20:56.880 --> 01:21:01.000
eight man tag. Sting is not
losing before Revolution. Sting is undefeated.

1084
01:21:01.199 --> 01:21:08.479
Sting will remain undefeated. They're gonna
pick up the win. We've got the

1085
01:21:08.479 --> 01:21:15.920
finals of the Continental Classic all set. It's gonna be John Moxley going one

1086
01:21:15.000 --> 01:21:20.560
on one with Eddie Kingston, a
match that twenty four hours ago I would

1087
01:21:20.600 --> 01:21:25.239
have said, all right, but
not really excited for it. Now they

1088
01:21:25.319 --> 01:21:29.319
sold me on it. So as
far as like a go home show selling

1089
01:21:29.359 --> 01:21:31.399
you on a key match for the
pay per view, I can't say that

1090
01:21:31.439 --> 01:21:34.800
what they did with the main event
stuff sold me anymore on the main event.

1091
01:21:35.239 --> 01:21:39.760
I mean, I like the idea
of Samoa Joe challenging for the World

1092
01:21:39.840 --> 01:21:43.479
Championship in the main event, like
I dig that the angle they did tonight

1093
01:21:43.520 --> 01:21:45.760
did nothing to get me any more
excited for that match. But for the

1094
01:21:45.800 --> 01:21:50.479
Continental Classic, that promo, that
back and forth between Moxley and Kingston sold

1095
01:21:50.520 --> 01:21:55.399
me. I am looking forward to
that match honestly more than any other match

1096
01:21:55.479 --> 01:21:59.159
on the show this weekend. And
I think Eddie Kingston is going to win

1097
01:21:59.199 --> 01:22:03.760
the Triple Crown this whole tournament.
It was right in front of your face,

1098
01:22:05.000 --> 01:22:09.800
not realizing that this has been the
Eddie Kingston story. And yes,

1099
01:22:09.840 --> 01:22:14.479
They could have used this tournament to
put over somebody new as somebody younger who

1100
01:22:14.479 --> 01:22:17.560
could have benefited and needed it more. But that's clearly not what this tournament

1101
01:22:17.680 --> 01:22:21.439
was designed to do. You can't
say, though, that the Continental Classic

1102
01:22:21.560 --> 01:22:25.680
was devoid of any story. You
can't say that. You can't say that

1103
01:22:25.760 --> 01:22:30.479
now. Honestly, you couldn't say
that before either. The only people who

1104
01:22:30.479 --> 01:22:32.560
would say that are the ones who
haven't actually been watching the fucking tournament.

1105
01:22:33.319 --> 01:22:38.039
They have been weaving stories into this
tournament, even Daniel Garcia, who went

1106
01:22:38.079 --> 01:22:42.600
winless until he finally beat Brody king
last weekend. Right, that's a story,

1107
01:22:44.640 --> 01:22:47.680
the story of Eddie Kingston coming back
from the brink of elimination trying to

1108
01:22:47.680 --> 01:22:51.920
win the Triple Crown. He grew
up a wrestling fan watching people win and

1109
01:22:51.960 --> 01:22:57.760
defend the Triple Crown. That's a
story. You may not like that story,

1110
01:22:57.800 --> 01:23:00.840
but that doesn't make it any less
of one. Eddie Kingston is going

1111
01:23:00.840 --> 01:23:06.720
to win the Continental Class and in
the main event, MJF defends the aw

1112
01:23:06.840 --> 01:23:14.640
World Championship against Samoa Joe. I
thought there was a chance that Joe would

1113
01:23:14.640 --> 01:23:16.119
win this title. I did.
I thought that might give Joe a token

1114
01:23:16.159 --> 01:23:20.800
run, MJF then gets the belt
back. MJF is not losing on Saturday.

1115
01:23:21.239 --> 01:23:26.079
MJF is going to persevere even with
the injury, just like he did

1116
01:23:26.119 --> 01:23:30.560
last month. He's going to retain
the aw World title. I believe and

1117
01:23:30.680 --> 01:23:34.600
my hope is that when World's End
goes off the air on Saturday, the

1118
01:23:34.680 --> 01:23:40.279
final show of twenty twenty three,
we have the Devil reveal that will set

1119
01:23:40.319 --> 01:23:45.359
things up heading into twenty twenty four. Whether it's Adam Cole, Brit Baker,

1120
01:23:46.680 --> 01:23:51.880
Jack Perry, Roderick Strong, or
whoever it may be. My best

1121
01:23:51.920 --> 01:23:57.960
guess Adam Cole with the Kingdom and
Wardlobe, that's what we're gonna get for

1122
01:23:58.000 --> 01:24:00.800
the reveal, whatever it is.
I hope we get that reveal at the

1123
01:24:00.880 --> 01:24:06.039
end of this show. And then
heading into twenty twenty four, you know

1124
01:24:06.079 --> 01:24:12.199
you've got MJF and Wardlow coming up
soon, and you've got MJF and Swerve,

1125
01:24:12.319 --> 01:24:15.439
which they tease last week, and
we'd be very upset if they don't

1126
01:24:15.479 --> 01:24:19.880
deliver on that match sometime, whether
it be Revolution or even Double or Nothing,

1127
01:24:20.479 --> 01:24:25.399
Double or nothing is still a ways
away, but hopefully we will get

1128
01:24:25.399 --> 01:24:29.000
that Swerve an MJF match at some
point in the first half of next year.

1129
01:24:29.359 --> 01:24:32.039
Seems to me like that was just
the tease for something longer term,

1130
01:24:32.479 --> 01:24:35.800
and MJF is going to have some
other people to run through first before he

1131
01:24:35.840 --> 01:24:41.720
gets to swerve. But that's your
World's end preview for Saturday, and I

1132
01:24:41.760 --> 01:24:44.680
will be live on YouTube as soon
as the pay per view goes off the

1133
01:24:44.720 --> 01:24:47.640
air at three o'clock in the morning. You can come on back here to

1134
01:24:47.680 --> 01:24:50.359
the channel and I will be recapping
the good, the bad, and the

1135
01:24:50.439 --> 01:24:54.000
ugly of the show. I will
not be at the Nasau policy I've been

1136
01:24:54.000 --> 01:24:57.680
to my fair share of shows at
the Nasau Coliseum. I will be right

1137
01:24:57.720 --> 01:25:00.439
here so you'll get the live RecA
as soon as the show goes off the

1138
01:25:00.479 --> 01:25:06.479
air. Here's the Twitter poll for
tonight not a great score, fifty nine

1139
01:25:06.560 --> 01:25:12.439
percent thumbs up, forty one percent
of you I've given the show a thumbs

1140
01:25:12.479 --> 01:25:15.760
down, so you can go ahead
and vote. At Solomoster, bliss Fan

1141
01:25:15.840 --> 01:25:24.520
says, what if MJF is actually
a free agent on January first? So

1142
01:25:24.640 --> 01:25:29.119
bliss Fan Apparently bliss Fan believes that
MJF could very well be done, which

1143
01:25:29.119 --> 01:25:30.840
means he would lose the title.
I could take the title off of him

1144
01:25:31.239 --> 01:25:36.840
on Saturday. Well, I don't
believe that MJF is done as of January

1145
01:25:36.880 --> 01:25:42.680
first. I am in the camp
who believes that MJF re signed a long

1146
01:25:42.680 --> 01:25:45.680
time ago, because Tony Kahn would
be out of his fucking mind not to

1147
01:25:45.760 --> 01:25:49.000
already have him resigned and still have
him in the position that he's in.

1148
01:25:49.840 --> 01:25:53.800
So I believe he's already I know
he has said otherwise, but what else

1149
01:25:53.840 --> 01:25:56.760
would he say publicly? So I
didn't ask him about it, because you're

1150
01:25:56.800 --> 01:26:00.520
not gonna go I'm not gonna ask
a question that I are already know the

1151
01:26:00.560 --> 01:26:04.880
answer to. That's for other people
to do. I believe that he's already

1152
01:26:04.920 --> 01:26:09.760
resigned, But I guess we'll find
out, won't we. We're not that

1153
01:26:09.880 --> 01:26:12.760
far off from January first. We
won't have to wait that much longer.

1154
01:26:12.960 --> 01:26:16.520
Hey, Del Fuego is at the
Arena tonight in Orlando. Del Fuego,

1155
01:26:16.600 --> 01:26:20.720
let me know what you thought of
the show. Bliss fan says, the

1156
01:26:20.880 --> 01:26:29.920
coliseum has become a dump has become
Have you been to the coliseum before?

1157
01:26:31.439 --> 01:26:36.000
Dump may be a little bit,
a little bit strong, but I wouldn't

1158
01:26:36.000 --> 01:26:44.680
exactly say it was a sprawling oasis
even before the renovation. I just hope

1159
01:26:44.680 --> 01:26:48.439
that we get an actual crowd that
has a pulse, because the Nassau Colisseum

1160
01:26:48.439 --> 01:26:54.960
does not always have the best reputation
when it comes to lively crowds. I

1161
01:26:54.960 --> 01:27:00.359
mean, it's not quite Corps Is
Christie, but it's pretty close. But

1162
01:27:00.520 --> 01:27:02.039
MJF. You know, he's a
Long Island guy. He's in the main

1163
01:27:02.079 --> 01:27:06.720
event, right, Eddie Kingston.
I think we'll get a good crowd on

1164
01:27:06.800 --> 01:27:14.840
Saturday, I hope, so we'll
find out. We'll all find out together.

1165
01:27:16.640 --> 01:27:20.279
World's in. You know, all
this talk about how AW is moving

1166
01:27:20.319 --> 01:27:26.239
to an every month pay per view
model, apparently not all those people who

1167
01:27:26.239 --> 01:27:30.319
were so sure of that. We
have January coming up, there's been no

1168
01:27:30.399 --> 01:27:32.600
pay per view announced. We've got
February coming up, there's been no pay

1169
01:27:32.600 --> 01:27:40.479
per view announced. Shows you that
those people know what they're talking about,

1170
01:27:40.479 --> 01:27:44.640
don't they. That's right, And
they also tease them MJF and Hangman,

1171
01:27:45.880 --> 01:27:50.520
So that could also be a potential
direction, all right. And by the

1172
01:27:50.560 --> 01:27:54.399
way, if you have prediction for
World's End, you could also get those

1173
01:27:54.399 --> 01:27:58.439
on in and I will I will
read them if you want to shie in

1174
01:28:00.079 --> 01:28:03.279
By the way, people have asked
me about The Iron Claw. I did

1175
01:28:03.359 --> 01:28:09.119
see The Iron Claw yesterday, and
I'm going to have an Ironclaw review going

1176
01:28:09.199 --> 01:28:12.920
up here on the channel tomorrow,
probably in the afternoon at some point,

1177
01:28:13.000 --> 01:28:17.760
so watch for it. My full
Iron Claw review on YouTube tomorrow afternoon.

1178
01:28:18.680 --> 01:28:24.359
Those of you who have been asking
me about the movie, Lady Fire panded

1179
01:28:24.359 --> 01:28:30.520
with a twenty dollars super chat.
Saw some people on x talking about wanting

1180
01:28:30.560 --> 01:28:34.560
an Iron Claw style movie on Chris
Benoit, so that I think about what

1181
01:28:34.680 --> 01:28:40.119
Cayman said, three people died that
night, Nancy and Daniel had no choice

1182
01:28:40.159 --> 01:28:45.920
to die. He did fuck him. Well, his thoughts pretty much marror

1183
01:28:45.000 --> 01:28:49.279
mine. Yeah, we don't need
that. They were gonna make a movie

1184
01:28:49.319 --> 01:28:53.640
about Benoir. Remember that was a
movie that was being playing and then it

1185
01:28:53.640 --> 01:28:59.680
got shelved. And I think on
the shelf is work alongs Jackie Fowler chiming

1186
01:28:59.720 --> 01:29:02.800
in her with a sixty two dollars
super chat. Hey Jackie, thank you

1187
01:29:02.960 --> 01:29:08.760
very much. What do you think
of a match between Cody Rhoads and AJ

1188
01:29:09.000 --> 01:29:14.399
Styles, the former face of AW
against the former face of TNA. The

1189
01:29:14.479 --> 01:29:17.159
story being both men carried their companies, but AJ can say he was a

1190
01:29:17.199 --> 01:29:25.279
world champion in his everything Cody has
done AJ has done first. So two

1191
01:29:25.319 --> 01:29:28.359
things about that. Number One,
I think a Cody AJ match would be

1192
01:29:28.359 --> 01:29:30.239
great and I would love to see
it. Uh, but they are not

1193
01:29:30.399 --> 01:29:36.600
going to base their fewd in WWE
on the fact that Cody was in AAW

1194
01:29:36.880 --> 01:29:42.000
and AJ was in TNA. Never
gonna happen, nor should they because they

1195
01:29:42.000 --> 01:29:45.760
don't happen because the WWE audience doesn't
give a shit. They don't they don't

1196
01:29:45.760 --> 01:29:49.840
give a shit about their past and
other companies. AJ's been how long has

1197
01:29:49.880 --> 01:29:53.880
AJ been in WWE now, he's
been there now for like seven or eight

1198
01:29:53.960 --> 01:29:58.600
years? Is he's so far removed
from TNA to bring it up now would

1199
01:29:58.640 --> 01:30:03.119
be silly. So they will absolutely
not do a feud based on that.

1200
01:30:03.439 --> 01:30:08.439
The closest you might get is if
they're going back and forth on the stick

1201
01:30:09.239 --> 01:30:13.560
and AJ throws a little dig in
there about about that, that just maybe

1202
01:30:13.560 --> 01:30:17.039
for like the fans who know,
but it's not going to be based around

1203
01:30:17.039 --> 01:30:26.680
that. There's no way. There's
no way that would happen. Steve Joseph,

1204
01:30:26.760 --> 01:30:29.520
would you have a review up on
the Iron Claw? Yes, tomorrow

1205
01:30:30.479 --> 01:30:32.399
it will be up tomorrow. I
will have an audio review up on the

1206
01:30:32.439 --> 01:30:35.960
channel tomorrow, so watch for it. I will give you my thoughts on

1207
01:30:36.000 --> 01:30:42.520
the movie and get into a lot
of the Von Eric history that was not

1208
01:30:42.640 --> 01:30:47.760
included in the movie, including an
entire Von Eric that was not included in

1209
01:30:47.800 --> 01:30:55.239
the movie. Steve says, what
was better the Wrestler or the Iron Claw,

1210
01:30:56.000 --> 01:31:01.920
the wrestler wild Bird or my suggestion, AW needs to establish a weight

1211
01:31:01.960 --> 01:31:08.159
class division like New Japan. I
don't think they do. I don't think

1212
01:31:08.199 --> 01:31:14.439
that that's the answer to the problem
of why people are not as excited for

1213
01:31:14.479 --> 01:31:16.880
the AW product. I don't think
he needs weight classes. Has nothing to

1214
01:31:16.920 --> 01:31:24.239
do with weight classes. Is not
going to improve the product or make it

1215
01:31:24.239 --> 01:31:30.600
any better or any worse. It's
not necessary. Also, I have a

1216
01:31:30.640 --> 01:31:34.079
problem with AAW. They need to
stop overexposing their top tier talent every week.

1217
01:31:34.279 --> 01:31:41.840
Give them the brock Lessner and Roman
Reigns schedule. Doesn't Tony Conn already

1218
01:31:41.880 --> 01:31:44.600
do that? Don't we have people
who show up and then don't show up

1219
01:31:44.600 --> 01:31:53.359
for weeks at a time. I
thought he was already doing that. I

1220
01:31:53.359 --> 01:31:57.800
have a solution, he says,
to prevent overexposure in AW for twenty twenty

1221
01:31:57.800 --> 01:32:01.600
four. The most valuable top tear
talent should have their own tour date posted

1222
01:32:01.640 --> 01:32:06.000
on social media. What does that
even mean? Their own tour dates?

1223
01:32:06.039 --> 01:32:10.600
What are they singing? They're at
a band. Jericho has his own tour

1224
01:32:10.720 --> 01:32:16.520
dates. Is Malachi Black going to
go on his own I don't know what

1225
01:32:16.560 --> 01:32:21.760
that means. You mean like independent
dates? If anything, I would want

1226
01:32:21.760 --> 01:32:27.960
my top tier talent to not be
going on tour. All that does is

1227
01:32:28.039 --> 01:32:35.479
risk injury. Tony CON's had enough
injuries this year. Uh zay ninety seven,

1228
01:32:35.520 --> 01:32:39.800
Thank you for the ten bucks.
I recently got back into wrestling since

1229
01:32:39.920 --> 01:32:44.800
WWE put the belt on Gender in
twenty seventeen. That got you back into

1230
01:32:44.880 --> 01:32:50.239
wrestling? Was gender Mahal is the
WWE champion? God bless you. I

1231
01:32:50.279 --> 01:32:57.000
only regret missing the bloodline story?
Is there any oh okay I miss read.

1232
01:32:57.680 --> 01:33:00.159
I misread your superchat. Okay,
thought, but you got back into

1233
01:33:00.199 --> 01:33:03.359
wrestling because of gender Mahal. I
was about to say, you're so,

1234
01:33:03.439 --> 01:33:09.479
You're the one he got out of
wrestling because they put the belt ungeon.

1235
01:33:09.640 --> 01:33:17.760
Well, that makes more sense.
I completely misunderstood your super chat. Is

1236
01:33:17.800 --> 01:33:21.880
there any moments, matches, et
cetera that you recommend from twenty seventeen to

1237
01:33:21.960 --> 01:33:27.479
twenty twenty two. I'm gonna leave
the majority of that to the chat.

1238
01:33:27.520 --> 01:33:29.960
I mean, I can't possibly name
everything. I mean, you missed a

1239
01:33:29.960 --> 01:33:35.640
lot of quality, a lot of
quality matches in that time. I can't

1240
01:33:35.680 --> 01:33:40.079
possibly name them all. I mean, from twenty seventeen to twenty twenty two,

1241
01:33:40.119 --> 01:33:45.640
even when the television was at it's
worst as far as stories at twenty

1242
01:33:45.680 --> 01:33:50.720
eighteen was twenty eighteen was pretty bad, but I mean, just looking at

1243
01:33:50.720 --> 01:33:55.960
WrestleMania, there were some really class
matches on some of those shows. I

1244
01:33:55.960 --> 01:34:00.239
mean twenty nineteen, what you missed
was the whole KOFE media thing at the

1245
01:34:00.239 --> 01:34:03.840
beginning of the year where the fans
really got behind KOFE Kingston and he beat

1246
01:34:03.920 --> 01:34:09.239
Daniel Bryan or WrestleMania and won the
championship. I could tell you from being

1247
01:34:09.239 --> 01:34:14.279
in the building that night. It
was an emotional thing for a lot of

1248
01:34:14.279 --> 01:34:16.680
the people who were there, and
the KOFEE media thing. I mean,

1249
01:34:16.720 --> 01:34:20.760
he held the title for six months
after that, but yeah, the really

1250
01:34:20.800 --> 01:34:27.800
fun part was the story getting there. So that was the first few months

1251
01:34:27.840 --> 01:34:33.600
of twenty nineteen, the COVID era. You know, look I don't think

1252
01:34:33.640 --> 01:34:36.319
a lot of people are going to
be looking back on the COVID era like,

1253
01:34:36.359 --> 01:34:39.880
oh, I can't wait to go
back and watch all those empty arena

1254
01:34:39.880 --> 01:34:45.439
shows. Wrestling is not meant to
take place in an empty arena, so

1255
01:34:46.159 --> 01:34:49.199
I don't know that I would look
back fondly on that period. But that's

1256
01:34:49.239 --> 01:34:53.800
not to say that there were in
some quality matches during that period, you

1257
01:34:53.840 --> 01:34:58.319
know, and even with the Bloodline
stuff, they would do things on TV

1258
01:34:58.359 --> 01:35:00.640
in the Thunderdome with no fans,
but you could hear them, right,

1259
01:35:00.800 --> 01:35:04.439
Roman was talking during his matches,
right. They had the freedom to do

1260
01:35:04.479 --> 01:35:09.439
stuff that they couldn't do otherwise,
so they tried to make the most of

1261
01:35:09.479 --> 01:35:14.760
it. Check out the Boneyard match
from WRESTLEMANNI A thirty six with Undertaker and

1262
01:35:14.840 --> 01:35:19.399
AJ Stiles. But I'm sure the
chat will chime in with other things you

1263
01:35:19.399 --> 01:35:26.680
should check out. Prince Vegeta.
Why does Tony kah overprotect Moxley? Is

1264
01:35:26.720 --> 01:35:30.600
it really that necessary to give him
a win here than someone on the Rise

1265
01:35:30.720 --> 01:35:35.560
Life Sword? Well, again,
he has his stories that he wants to

1266
01:35:35.600 --> 01:35:40.279
tell, and Moxley is probably one
of the highest paid guys in the entire

1267
01:35:40.319 --> 01:35:45.079
company. He's re signed until twenty
twenty seven. Moxley is one of his

1268
01:35:45.159 --> 01:35:48.239
guys, so he feels the need
to protect him. John Moxley has been

1269
01:35:48.279 --> 01:35:53.039
the most protected guy on the roster
since day one when he first came in.

1270
01:35:54.359 --> 01:35:56.760
I mean last year. You look
at his win loss record, it

1271
01:35:56.920 --> 01:36:00.800
was ridiculous. He really does.
He goes out of his way to protect

1272
01:36:00.800 --> 01:36:06.079
Moxley, which I kind of respect
honestly, that he would have one top

1273
01:36:06.119 --> 01:36:10.000
guy he would protect that much,
with the hope that when he does lose

1274
01:36:10.000 --> 01:36:15.359
it means something like the Saturday when
he loses Eddie Kingston, hopefully it'll mean

1275
01:36:15.399 --> 01:36:28.560
something a wild bird maybe Private Party
is helping out the devil. Food Hid

1276
01:36:28.560 --> 01:36:31.800
early to the party, So what's
up? Chat? That was from Food

1277
01:36:31.840 --> 01:36:35.199
High two hours ago. Food Hi's
still with us? What's going on?

1278
01:36:35.239 --> 01:36:42.399
Food Hid? What are you cooking
up tonight? Hyper Cam. Hope Mariah

1279
01:36:42.479 --> 01:36:45.760
they gets to be creative with her
character. Have not seen anyone make a

1280
01:36:45.800 --> 01:36:50.680
generic sexy gimmick nearly as hilarious as
she did in Stardom. I hope so

1281
01:36:50.800 --> 01:37:00.119
too. Moroa with a ten dollars
super Chet was a great show with a

1282
01:37:00.159 --> 01:37:03.439
bad ordering of segments. Devil stuff
should have started, followed by the three

1283
01:37:03.479 --> 01:37:09.880
way everything else in the same position
with Danielson against Eddie closing and Moxley and

1284
01:37:10.039 --> 01:37:17.159
Eddie promo. I do wonder if
part of it was also just that well,

1285
01:37:17.199 --> 01:37:20.159
I mean, I think the Devil
thing is their top storyline right now,

1286
01:37:20.239 --> 01:37:23.960
so that's why they want to end
with it. But also you run

1287
01:37:24.000 --> 01:37:26.800
the risk if you're going to close
out with the promo and you're already in

1288
01:37:26.800 --> 01:37:30.039
your overrun if they go over you
don't want that promo getting cut off and

1289
01:37:30.079 --> 01:37:33.640
bet promo. I would actually rather
that go on when it did, so

1290
01:37:33.720 --> 01:37:40.920
that way, something else gets cut
not that sick. So I'm actually okay

1291
01:37:40.920 --> 01:37:45.159
with the ordering on the show tonight
for that reason. Devin from NJ Racing

1292
01:37:45.239 --> 01:37:48.640
Queen is going to be my wedding
song. If my bride says no to

1293
01:37:48.680 --> 01:37:51.520
it, then that marriage will not
work for me and I will divorce her

1294
01:37:51.640 --> 01:37:56.560
right then and there. Well,
that right there is a smart man.

1295
01:37:56.840 --> 01:38:02.840
I agree with you. Let me
know how it works out. Also want

1296
01:38:03.079 --> 01:38:11.520
Solo Baine to be the one who
marries us that I don't know about.

1297
01:38:12.920 --> 01:38:16.159
You might have lost me on that
Misfit Wrestling podcast. I still prefer Jay

1298
01:38:16.159 --> 01:38:19.199
White finding his way back to New
Japan, and I feel like this was

1299
01:38:19.359 --> 01:38:24.920
the loophole. This would have been
the loophole. But it doesn't mean that

1300
01:38:24.960 --> 01:38:27.319
he can't find his way back at
some point. I'm sure he will.

1301
01:38:28.960 --> 01:38:32.079
It's wrestling. They'll always find a
way, no matter how stupid it might

1302
01:38:32.159 --> 01:38:38.800
sound. Paul Carpenter, So Samoa
Joe was on the floor for no reason

1303
01:38:40.399 --> 01:38:45.960
apparently, Yeah, he was throwing
them off the scent. He's a good

1304
01:38:45.000 --> 01:38:49.520
actor, right, That's why they
cast him to play the what's his role?

1305
01:38:49.760 --> 01:38:55.800
Sweet tooth right and Twisted Metal.
I think that guy has a future

1306
01:38:55.800 --> 01:39:00.840
in Hollywood. Rodham his prime swerve
against Lee on Saturday. Cool. Other

1307
01:39:00.920 --> 01:39:04.199
than that one year too late.
That said, I'm pulling for Eddie to

1308
01:39:04.239 --> 01:39:12.560
also win Dylan Hensley with the twenty
dollars super Jed. I should have mentioned

1309
01:39:12.600 --> 01:39:16.439
before that sometimes Ricky Starks will visit
the Academy, since that's where he graduated.

1310
01:39:16.520 --> 01:39:18.960
I was at first nervous to meet
him, but I always try to

1311
01:39:18.960 --> 01:39:23.800
ask for advice, and the best
advice he gave us was to work out

1312
01:39:25.119 --> 01:39:28.039
well, because he knows how important
that is if you want to get television

1313
01:39:28.079 --> 01:39:35.000
time you got to look apart,
but smart advice. Maybe you should get

1314
01:39:35.039 --> 01:39:39.239
on the same diet that Randy Orton
and aj Styles were all when they came

1315
01:39:39.279 --> 01:39:43.039
back to TV. I don't know
if you could afford it, though,

1316
01:39:43.159 --> 01:39:48.199
See they could afford it. Thank
you, Dylan. That's very cool though

1317
01:39:48.239 --> 01:39:51.159
that there Ricky graduated from the same
school. I did not know that,

1318
01:39:54.359 --> 01:39:59.000
Uh Markwah in nineteen seventy six,
dropping by to say happy holidays to everybody

1319
01:39:59.039 --> 01:40:00.760
despite being sick as a dog right
now. Well, that's so, I'm

1320
01:40:00.800 --> 01:40:03.479
sorry to hear that. Happy holidays
to you too. I hope you.

1321
01:40:03.680 --> 01:40:09.039
I hope you're well by the New
Year. I'm gonna be here with all

1322
01:40:09.039 --> 01:40:11.840
of you on New Year's Eve.
I hope you're better by them and you

1323
01:40:11.880 --> 01:40:17.880
can join us. The Juliette Scotti
too Hotty made aw debut in a dark

1324
01:40:17.960 --> 01:40:26.680
match. Guess what they need?
Actually, Scotti would probably be a good

1325
01:40:26.720 --> 01:40:31.479
coach for them in the ring.
Yeah, I don't know about that,

1326
01:40:31.760 --> 01:40:36.000
uh Samoan fan. I predict that
the Devil will cost MJF the title at

1327
01:40:36.039 --> 01:40:42.119
World's End and will unmask as Brandy
Rhodes. The fans fucked her over and

1328
01:40:42.199 --> 01:40:45.960
so she screws them over back.
You know, Brandy would technically be a

1329
01:40:46.000 --> 01:40:49.640
free agent. She's not tied to
a WWE contract, so she could sign

1330
01:40:49.680 --> 01:40:58.119
with AW if she wanted to.
I think that's a terrible idea, but

1331
01:40:58.199 --> 01:41:03.039
she could technically do that. I
despise Babyface MJF. I am sick of

1332
01:41:03.079 --> 01:41:15.359
it. Bobert reviews Boozball is the
devil, it says Mama Bouche, Ali

1333
01:41:15.560 --> 01:41:23.600
Mohammad, Power Call and Britt leading
Spears Wardlow And it doesn't have to be

1334
01:41:23.640 --> 01:41:28.680
Spears. I think it would be
leading Wardlow and the Kingdom and Roddy and

1335
01:41:28.760 --> 01:41:35.800
that's your crew. B D Skeleton
Doctor. Britt Baker is the devil.

1336
01:41:40.199 --> 01:41:45.600
Very possible. After tonight, I
could see it. I could see it

1337
01:41:45.720 --> 01:41:51.560
food high. I love that the
company is improving its flaws. That might

1338
01:41:51.560 --> 01:41:57.640
get you some heat. I know
there are a lot of people who disagree.

1339
01:41:58.640 --> 01:42:02.760
Based on the feedback. Barry MK
four hundred eight, what was worse

1340
01:42:02.840 --> 01:42:08.000
the boxing match from wrestle Many of
fifteen or the sumo match from wrestle Mania

1341
01:42:08.039 --> 01:42:12.279
twenty one? The sumo match from
WrestleMania twenty one, And that's not even

1342
01:42:12.319 --> 01:42:16.119
a question. You know why you
know how I know that because I'm still

1343
01:42:16.119 --> 01:42:20.399
scarred. You know why I'm scarred
because I still remember that moment where Big

1344
01:42:20.399 --> 01:42:26.479
Show got thrown out of the ring
and we got a nice ass shot and

1345
01:42:26.520 --> 01:42:31.000
he wasn't wearing anything except the sumo
gear. That doesn't that doesn't leave your

1346
01:42:31.000 --> 01:42:35.520
brain, that sticks with you.
The boxing match was I mean, it

1347
01:42:35.560 --> 01:42:40.800
was over like that butter being knocked
him out and it was over harmless,

1348
01:42:42.199 --> 01:42:47.039
maybe not the bar done, but
harmless. Big Show. I'm still scarred

1349
01:42:47.039 --> 01:42:50.640
all the It's almost twenty years later. I'm still scarred. Man. I

1350
01:42:50.720 --> 01:43:01.520
saw more Big Show that day than
his wife does. Nash dts, I

1351
01:43:01.560 --> 01:43:06.520
know you hated the new Godzilla movie, but maybe I didn't say. I

1352
01:43:06.600 --> 01:43:12.239
didn't say I hated the movie.
Who said I hated the Godzilla? All

1353
01:43:12.279 --> 01:43:15.800
I said was it was a good
movie. I didn't rave about it the

1354
01:43:15.840 --> 01:43:20.760
way other people raved about it because
to me, I was expecting a different

1355
01:43:20.880 --> 01:43:25.039
kind of movie at the beginning,
more of an origin type thing, and

1356
01:43:25.079 --> 01:43:28.039
it wasn't that, and so I
didn't like that aspect of it. But

1357
01:43:28.399 --> 01:43:34.560
I never said it was a bad
movie and I hate it. And by

1358
01:43:34.600 --> 01:43:38.439
the way, he says, maybe
you'll like Shin Godzilla. As soon as

1359
01:43:38.479 --> 01:43:42.399
I came home the next day,
I watched Shin Godzilla for the first time.

1360
01:43:42.920 --> 01:43:46.439
I actually enjoyed Shin Godzilla more.
That doesn't mean I hated the new

1361
01:43:46.479 --> 01:43:51.720
Godzilla, but I thought Shin Godzilla
was actually really good and was more in

1362
01:43:51.760 --> 01:43:55.720
line with the kind of Godzilla movie
I was hoping to see. The only

1363
01:43:55.720 --> 01:43:59.520
thing I would say about Shin Godzilla
if you've seen it, is the first

1364
01:43:59.600 --> 01:44:04.119
appears of Godzilla in that movie when
he makes landfall. I thought it was

1365
01:44:04.159 --> 01:44:10.319
a joke. When they showed dirt
face Godzilla, I said, what the

1366
01:44:10.359 --> 01:44:14.159
fuck is that? And then but
I guess the story is that he was

1367
01:44:14.760 --> 01:44:18.199
He was like morphing and he was
in he was in agony or because as

1368
01:44:18.239 --> 01:44:20.840
the movie went on, he looked
more like Godzilla. I saw that.

1369
01:44:20.880 --> 01:44:24.479
I said, am I watching a
comedy? Like? You gotta be kidding

1370
01:44:24.479 --> 01:44:28.840
me? Is it because it has
a low budget? Why does he look

1371
01:44:28.880 --> 01:44:33.640
that way? It looked awful,
not as awful as Rick Flair in this

1372
01:44:33.720 --> 01:44:38.760
Iron Claw movie, but still pretty
awful. But I actually like shim Godzilla

1373
01:44:38.800 --> 01:44:45.319
a lot. Dirt face Godzilla,
that's what he was. That's what he

1374
01:44:45.479 --> 01:44:50.239
was. Uh, d H sires, this is a better version of retribution,

1375
01:44:51.600 --> 01:45:00.279
is it though? Is it?
Food Hive? What was for er?

1376
01:45:01.560 --> 01:45:11.720
What was for dinner? Chicken cutlets
and Pillsbury Crescent Rooms? Nick Grosso.

1377
01:45:12.039 --> 01:45:15.720
After tonight, I think the Devil
is going to swerve Samoa Joe and

1378
01:45:15.800 --> 01:45:20.119
cost him the title at World's End. Well, however, however, it

1379
01:45:20.199 --> 01:45:25.279
goes down. I don't think Samoa
Joe is walking out with a championship,

1380
01:45:25.880 --> 01:45:32.720
not after tonight, d H sires. To be honest, this Devil's story

1381
01:45:32.760 --> 01:45:36.800
has gone downhill since Punk showed up
at Survivors here, simply because of the

1382
01:45:36.880 --> 01:45:41.159
slight chance it was Punk, it
would be the most shocking and wild.

1383
01:45:42.399 --> 01:45:49.199
It was never going to be seam
and Daddy Ugarte Actually, yes, yes,

1384
01:45:49.239 --> 01:45:55.319
I did, Yes, I did, said Solo wanted to see teenager

1385
01:45:55.439 --> 01:46:01.479
Godzilla bitten by a radioactive radio active
lizard turned into Godzilla my minus one.

1386
01:46:01.600 --> 01:46:05.680
Yes, yes, no, Actually, you know what I wanted. You

1387
01:46:05.680 --> 01:46:11.199
know what I thought this movie was. I thought that it was going to

1388
01:46:11.239 --> 01:46:16.119
be more of an origin story coming
out of the war, and you know,

1389
01:46:16.239 --> 01:46:20.520
the bombs have fallen and there's all
the RADI you know, the radioactivity

1390
01:46:20.520 --> 01:46:25.319
and everything and we really do get
something of you know, like what what

1391
01:46:25.520 --> 01:46:29.279
is that? Instead of it just
like in the first five minutes of the

1392
01:46:29.319 --> 01:46:33.760
movie, like oh it's Godzilla,
Like what I miss something here? Why

1393
01:46:33.760 --> 01:46:40.359
did we Why did we go to
like chapter twenty? And maybe that's my

1394
01:46:40.479 --> 01:46:43.920
fault because I didn't want any spoilers
going into this movie. I didn't watch

1395
01:46:43.920 --> 01:46:46.880
the trailer. I just saw all
the positive feedback for it, and I

1396
01:46:46.920 --> 01:46:53.720
said, I got to see it
for myself. So maybe maybe it was

1397
01:46:53.760 --> 01:47:00.720
my fault. But anyway, DH, it was never gonna be If you

1398
01:47:00.720 --> 01:47:01.960
thought it was going to be a
CM punk, that's on you, man.

1399
01:47:02.680 --> 01:47:06.439
You set yourself up for that.
It was never going to be CM

1400
01:47:06.439 --> 01:47:13.600
punk Ali with the two Bucks.
If not Cole or Britt, then who

1401
01:47:14.920 --> 01:47:18.279
Now there's Jack Perry. Why else
have they held him? Held him back

1402
01:47:18.520 --> 01:47:24.199
from television? He still hasn't come
back yet. He has history with MJF.

1403
01:47:24.520 --> 01:47:28.159
MJF said that you basically, uh, you know, lack the killer

1404
01:47:28.239 --> 01:47:32.000
instinct to be to be me.
I mean they could always tell that story.

1405
01:47:32.479 --> 01:47:34.600
I don't know that it would be
any good because I don't know if

1406
01:47:34.600 --> 01:47:40.760
he can handle that role as a
lead heel in the company but if not

1407
01:47:40.880 --> 01:47:48.479
Cole or Britt Jack Perry would be
my guess. Benjamin Espinoza, what's good?

1408
01:47:48.520 --> 01:48:01.399
Hefe be awesome work. I will
Godzilla the College Years right? Tell

1409
01:48:01.439 --> 01:48:06.239
me that wouldn't be a good movie. Look, they have this Godzilla versus

1410
01:48:06.359 --> 01:48:10.680
Kong movie coming out. I have
no interest in seeing you. I don't

1411
01:48:10.680 --> 01:48:15.840
know why. I just don't.
Magician Sapphire, why is Orange Cassidy not

1412
01:48:15.920 --> 01:48:21.000
defending the International Championship at World's End? Whatever your opinion is about the title,

1413
01:48:21.039 --> 01:48:26.000
it should have a place on the
card now it feels cold? Yeah,

1414
01:48:26.039 --> 01:48:30.479
no shit. Why haven't they had
Ta Keshta challenging for the title?

1415
01:48:32.640 --> 01:48:35.680
Good question? Right? At least
that would have been something for him to

1416
01:48:35.680 --> 01:48:40.199
fight for. That's why I'm pulling
for him in the Battle Royal on Saturday.

1417
01:48:40.199 --> 01:48:42.880
At least then maybe he could be
aligned for a tnc title match.

1418
01:48:44.159 --> 01:48:46.720
I mean, why wouldn't he be
Why wouldn't don Kallus want one of his

1419
01:48:46.840 --> 01:48:50.239
men in the Battle Royal to try
to bring gold into the Kllous family.

1420
01:48:51.880 --> 01:48:56.560
Why wouldn't he want that? You've
already got Hobbes and Kyle Fletcher in the

1421
01:48:56.560 --> 01:49:00.600
other match. They're not gonna win. Shit. In that match. He

1422
01:49:00.640 --> 01:49:04.279
should want to catch it in the
battle. Royal and Dylan, thank you

1423
01:49:04.319 --> 01:49:15.279
for the dollar ninety nine. The
Juliet, Gunther and Jinny are now parents.

1424
01:49:15.760 --> 01:49:18.439
Oh did they break that news today? I did not see that.

1425
01:49:18.520 --> 01:49:26.800
Congrats to the Happy Company. Now
he gets to teach his son that the

1426
01:49:26.920 --> 01:49:32.399
mat is sacred. Moroa. Curious
to know the answer to your question to

1427
01:49:32.640 --> 01:49:38.239
MJF about the hate that they get
from the likes of Cornette and Bischoff,

1428
01:49:40.800 --> 01:49:43.920
I mean Cornett and bish I'm not
gonna answer for Cornett and Bishoff. They

1429
01:49:43.920 --> 01:49:48.079
have there's no changing their minds.
They have their they have their audience.

1430
01:49:48.119 --> 01:49:53.479
They know what their audience likes to
do. It's all part of the ship.

1431
01:49:57.399 --> 01:50:01.119
But as far as my thoughts on
you know j answer about it being

1432
01:50:01.199 --> 01:50:04.479
different in that you know that being
the reason for a lot of the hate.

1433
01:50:05.119 --> 01:50:10.560
I gave my response. So if
you want my response to what MJF

1434
01:50:10.600 --> 01:50:13.680
said, you got to check out
the last episode of the Sound though it's

1435
01:50:13.720 --> 01:50:17.520
on episode A forty. It went
up this past Sunday. I played the

1436
01:50:17.560 --> 01:50:21.239
audio of the interview, and then
right after the audio from the interview,

1437
01:50:21.319 --> 01:50:29.640
I gave my response Nick Grosso where
did this Stoply Hathaway storyline come from and

1438
01:50:29.640 --> 01:50:35.359
does it lead to a possible Chris
Statlander heeltern sounds to me like maybe at

1439
01:50:35.399 --> 01:50:39.960
least a will On Nightingale heel turned. As far as where it came from,

1440
01:50:40.000 --> 01:50:44.960
I assume I assume some combination of
Ring of Honor and rampage, because

1441
01:50:46.000 --> 01:50:54.239
I wasn't familiar with it either.
The crib is sacred, says Matthew Miller.

1442
01:50:55.079 --> 01:51:00.800
There you go, the crib is
safer. Frizzo, Well this was

1443
01:51:00.920 --> 01:51:02.720
an odd this was odd, he
says. I turned on the stream and

1444
01:51:02.760 --> 01:51:06.680
the first thing I hear about is
big Show's ass I love you. So

1445
01:51:10.960 --> 01:51:14.119
that means you miss the entire actual
review. Now you gotta go back and

1446
01:51:14.159 --> 01:51:17.640
rewatch the review from the very beginning, otherwise I'm going to be very disappointed.

1447
01:51:23.119 --> 01:51:28.079
I'm not saying Willow Nightingale should be
I'm just saying I wonder I would

1448
01:51:28.079 --> 01:51:30.520
think that maybe she would be the
one going heel in this whole thing.

1449
01:51:30.760 --> 01:51:33.039
I still feel like she should be
the one to beat Athena, even though

1450
01:51:33.039 --> 01:51:36.720
she already lost. I don't know
who the hell else beats Athena for the

1451
01:51:36.800 --> 01:51:42.359
Ring of Honor. Women's style who
else is there? If not Willow,

1452
01:51:42.399 --> 01:51:49.039
then who Prince vegeta watch? Uncle
Dave? Give Tony Kahan Booker of the

1453
01:51:49.119 --> 01:51:59.039
Year. Again, it's not I
give them. Do people still think that

1454
01:51:59.159 --> 01:52:03.600
Dave is the one who get those
awards out? I thought we've already established

1455
01:52:03.640 --> 01:52:10.159
it's the readership who gives that award. I think people actually think that Dave

1456
01:52:10.239 --> 01:52:12.479
is the one giving the awards out. I mean you could say that his

1457
01:52:13.399 --> 01:52:17.920
audience, his readership, is influenced
by his own writing and opinions, but

1458
01:52:18.399 --> 01:52:24.119
he is not the one who gives
those awards. I thought this was well

1459
01:52:24.239 --> 01:52:30.640
established on b com see clearly three
questions. Number one, why is athenis

1460
01:52:30.680 --> 01:52:33.760
still in a ring of honor?
Beats the hell out of me? Number

1461
01:52:33.800 --> 01:52:38.479
two? Where are the guns?
Beats the hell out of me? Number

1462
01:52:38.479 --> 01:52:44.560
three? Where should aw go?
If not TNT or TBS, Happy Holidays,

1463
01:52:44.560 --> 01:52:48.079
Solo and Chat family, they should
go wherever Tony Kahan can get the

1464
01:52:48.079 --> 01:52:53.439
most money for his television programming,
because otherwise they're going to be in a

1465
01:52:53.439 --> 01:52:57.960
lot of trouble and that roster is
going to have to undergo some changes because

1466
01:52:57.960 --> 01:53:00.880
he will not be able to afford
the as it currently stands if he does

1467
01:53:00.920 --> 01:53:06.840
not get more money for his television
Jews. So wherever that is he needs

1468
01:53:06.880 --> 01:53:11.760
to go. Wherever he's going to
get this, that's where he needs to

1469
01:53:11.800 --> 01:53:15.960
go. Whether it's streaming, whether
it's television, he has to go where

1470
01:53:15.000 --> 01:53:24.640
he's going to get the best deal. Red Emissary of Darkness by or Sell

1471
01:53:25.000 --> 01:53:32.000
Devil or Dark Order. The Devil
storyline is not over yet. Ask me

1472
01:53:32.079 --> 01:53:42.880
after this weekend, I am I
can't. I can't say dark The Dark

1473
01:53:43.000 --> 01:53:46.880
Order went through a phase when when
Rody Lee was the leader and he beat

1474
01:53:46.920 --> 01:53:54.000
Cody and he won the TNT title, where that was something outside of that.

1475
01:53:55.680 --> 01:54:00.960
I have no idea the dark Samoan
fan Godzilla minus one had well written

1476
01:54:01.000 --> 01:54:04.560
human characters. I thought it was
great because even without Godzilla, I was

1477
01:54:04.560 --> 01:54:12.319
hooked on the sad story. Well, they definitely had some good human characters

1478
01:54:12.359 --> 01:54:16.159
in the movie, but it does
not change my opinion of the movie.

1479
01:54:16.720 --> 01:54:21.520
And again I didn't think it was
a bad movie. I just didn't like

1480
01:54:21.560 --> 01:54:28.319
it the way that other people liked
it. Sue me, tar and Feather,

1481
01:54:30.399 --> 01:54:35.920
I said what I said morea.
I think Orange Cassidy is not defending

1482
01:54:35.960 --> 01:54:42.239
the title because they are teasing a
best friend's breakup. They showed tension between

1483
01:54:42.239 --> 01:54:47.840
OC Trent and Rocky on Rampy.
Well, you know what, we have

1484
01:54:47.920 --> 01:54:54.159
rampage on Friday, don't So it's
possible that they could still add an international

1485
01:54:54.199 --> 01:54:58.920
title match twenty four hours before the
paper game. They can very well add

1486
01:54:58.920 --> 01:55:04.680
that to the free show. SAMO
and fan buy or sell eighties Brett against

1487
01:55:04.680 --> 01:55:17.920
two thousand Kert or WCW Brett against
Perk. Well, that's that's a good

1488
01:55:18.000 --> 01:55:26.640
question. Either one of those matches
would be great. Brett wasn't quite seasoned

1489
01:55:26.720 --> 01:55:30.600
yet the way that he would be
in the nineties, So I'm gonna go

1490
01:55:30.439 --> 01:55:39.800
WCW Brett and per Gang. I'd
buy on that match. And Daniel Malcolm

1491
01:55:40.079 --> 01:55:43.640
must have fought Ali on that.
Randy and AJ, oh shit, you

1492
01:55:43.640 --> 01:55:46.319
know what, that's right. I
saw that picture he posted a photo Ali

1493
01:55:46.439 --> 01:55:51.119
did from the gym the other day, and he looked like a totally different

1494
01:55:51.119 --> 01:55:57.520
person. I thought he took his
head and stuck it on someone else's body.

1495
01:55:58.520 --> 01:56:00.399
You know, if he would have
looked like that when he was in

1496
01:56:00.520 --> 01:56:03.079
WWE, I think Vince McMahon would
have fifth McMahon would have done something with

1497
01:56:03.199 --> 01:56:08.760
him holy shit. I don't know. I don't know what he did,

1498
01:56:08.840 --> 01:56:13.279
but he fucking blew off. He
didn't see that go on his Twitter.

1499
01:56:13.319 --> 01:56:17.439
He posted the photo the other day. But I'll leave you know he's going

1500
01:56:17.479 --> 01:56:23.920
on this world tour and that he's
got more dates booked than anybody else so

1501
01:56:24.000 --> 01:56:29.039
far from all the people who's non
competes expired this past week. I mean,

1502
01:56:29.079 --> 01:56:33.239
this guy through March or April is
just booked out everywhere. I mean,

1503
01:56:33.239 --> 01:56:40.520
he's crisscrossing the country into Canada,
he's everywhere. He's in high demand.

1504
01:56:41.039 --> 01:56:43.159
I do wonder, though, you
know, if he's going to maintain

1505
01:56:43.239 --> 01:56:46.720
that that size that he has,
Now what effect that's going to have on

1506
01:56:46.720 --> 01:56:54.560
his n ring style, Because it's
going to have an effect. It's gonna

1507
01:56:54.560 --> 01:56:59.000
slow him down a little bit.
He's been Yeah, he's been taking his

1508
01:56:59.079 --> 01:57:04.119
vitamins and saying his prayers. I
guess so, I guess so. Well,

1509
01:57:04.279 --> 01:57:09.920
the goal tonight was four hundred legs. We are at four fifty one.

1510
01:57:10.199 --> 01:57:13.439
Thank you for that. Do you
hit that thumbs up so we can

1511
01:57:13.479 --> 01:57:17.079
get ourselves into the algorithm so other
people can stumble upon this video and can

1512
01:57:17.159 --> 01:57:21.720
listen to me talk about big show's
asst WrestleMania twenty one. I'm sure that'll

1513
01:57:21.720 --> 01:57:28.960
get them to subscribe. Let's be
the booker, ladies and gentlemen. It

1514
01:57:29.079 --> 01:57:35.640
is now time to be the booker, all right? So the final be

1515
01:57:35.760 --> 01:57:42.520
the booker for a dynamite stream,
hopefully not the final be the booker for

1516
01:57:42.560 --> 01:57:45.479
twenty twenty three. We got two
more streams left to go this weekend,

1517
01:57:45.399 --> 01:57:49.920
so we're not done yet. Here
we go, be the booker again.

1518
01:57:50.000 --> 01:57:54.520
There was no Raw on Monday,
and there's no SmackDown on Friday, so

1519
01:57:54.560 --> 01:58:00.960
we don't come back again until Saturday
night. I gotta say, not having

1520
01:58:00.039 --> 01:58:03.920
to sit here and watch RAW on
Monday and having the night off to myself,

1521
01:58:04.840 --> 01:58:10.800
I enjoyed that. Not gonna lie. All right, here we go.

1522
01:58:11.359 --> 01:58:15.680
We begin with the former undisputed tag
team champions. This right here is

1523
01:58:15.680 --> 01:58:21.319
gonna be one of your matches at
Wrestlemandy of forty the USOS, Jimmy and

1524
01:58:21.439 --> 01:58:30.800
Jay Yeat. We got the USOS. Wwe would tell you they are the

1525
01:58:30.840 --> 01:58:35.359
greatest tag team in WWE history because
they are the longest reigning tag team champions

1526
01:58:35.359 --> 01:58:39.079
in history. I'm here to tell
you that just because you are the longest

1527
01:58:39.119 --> 01:58:45.159
reigning. Anything does not make you
the best. Usso is gonna be taken

1528
01:58:45.199 --> 01:58:55.920
on Team hell No, Cain and
Daniel Bryant, Team hell No and the

1529
01:58:56.039 --> 01:59:00.000
Ussos. That probably was a match
back then, right, they must have

1530
01:59:00.079 --> 01:59:09.840
had at least one match. I
would think that match happened at some point.

1531
01:59:11.680 --> 01:59:15.960
All right, women's be the booker
here we go, kick things off

1532
01:59:15.960 --> 01:59:20.920
here with maki Itto flipping off her
replace that Cheta. I think that's her.

1533
01:59:21.159 --> 01:59:28.600
That's her. Her opponent there,
maki Eto. This might be the

1534
01:59:28.600 --> 01:59:32.640
first time we've had machi Eto here, and be the booker. Machi Eto

1535
01:59:32.760 --> 01:59:39.560
flipping the bird. She's learning all
the curse words and all the curse gestures

1536
01:59:39.600 --> 01:59:46.520
here in English. Machi Eto,
get the fuck up her opponent. It's

1537
01:59:46.520 --> 01:59:56.840
gonna be machi Eto against Becky Lynch. Oh man, imagine Becky Lynch back

1538
01:59:56.880 --> 02:00:00.319
in twenty eighteen when she was cutting
those promos, cutting promo on machi Eto.

1539
02:00:03.359 --> 02:00:09.119
I think machi Eto against twenty eighteen
Becky Lynch on social media would have

1540
02:00:09.119 --> 02:00:16.520
been entertaining. All right, all
right, so far, so good.

1541
02:00:16.520 --> 02:00:24.119
Two for two. We come to
the main event. This is our world's

1542
02:00:24.199 --> 02:00:30.720
end main event. Kick things off
well, wouldn't you know our world's end

1543
02:00:30.800 --> 02:00:35.920
made event. Jim Cornett. That's
probably the look he has on his face

1544
02:00:35.920 --> 02:00:42.119
when he watches AW every week.
According to some of you people, this

1545
02:00:42.159 --> 02:00:51.039
could be the Devil on Saturday,
Jim Cornett. Let's see, let's see

1546
02:00:51.039 --> 02:00:56.760
who it's gonna be. Could be
Kenny Omega, It could be one of

1547
02:00:56.800 --> 02:01:02.439
the Jacksons. Jim Cornett. Let
me stepping into the ring to go one

1548
02:01:02.560 --> 02:01:19.479
on one with Hunter hearst Elmsley.
That's a terrible main event. Almost had

1549
02:01:19.520 --> 02:01:27.079
it. We were this close to
a perfect night. Cornett had to fuck

1550
02:01:27.159 --> 02:01:32.800
it all up. Honestly, there
were only two options. It would have

1551
02:01:32.800 --> 02:01:38.359
had to have been Omega or Vince
Russo. Then I would have given it

1552
02:01:38.399 --> 02:01:43.239
the belt because both of them are
in be the booker. But it was

1553
02:01:43.279 --> 02:01:48.039
not to be close enough though.
Hey, del fuego, have a good

1554
02:01:48.079 --> 02:01:57.479
nightmare. Oh man, two out
of three? Not bad, not bad

1555
02:01:57.520 --> 02:02:03.239
at all. Well, no SmackDown
on Friday night. It's another clip show,

1556
02:02:03.319 --> 02:02:05.479
so there will be no stream,
but I am gonna be back with

1557
02:02:05.520 --> 02:02:11.079
you. We're doing back to back
on Saturday and Sunday. We're closing out

1558
02:02:11.159 --> 02:02:17.880
this year with three straight streams.
Saturday night after World's End, come here,

1559
02:02:18.079 --> 02:02:23.319
we're gonna talk about the pay per
view. Sunday, Episode eight forty

1560
02:02:23.399 --> 02:02:28.039
one of the sound Off will not
be the usual audio show. It will

1561
02:02:28.079 --> 02:02:31.239
be a live stream for New Year's
Eve on YouTube. We're gonna combine the

1562
02:02:31.319 --> 02:02:36.560
usual New Year's stream with an episode
of the SoundOff. So whatever news there

1563
02:02:36.640 --> 02:02:40.760
is to talk about, we'll cover
the news. But I'm gonna be doing

1564
02:02:40.880 --> 02:02:45.159
predictions. It is the annual Prediction
Show, or I give my predictions for

1565
02:02:45.199 --> 02:02:49.720
twenty twenty four. Come with your
own predictions, share your own predictions,

1566
02:02:49.960 --> 02:02:54.520
start thinking about what you think is
gonna happen in the wrestling world next year,

1567
02:02:55.279 --> 02:02:57.880
and we'll hang out and we'll ring
in the new year together on Sunday

1568
02:02:57.960 --> 02:03:00.279
night. I don't know. Maybe
the drinks will be flowing. You never

1569
02:03:00.359 --> 02:03:05.840
know. But it's our annual Make
It Till Midnight podcast Episode A forty one.

1570
02:03:06.720 --> 02:03:11.119
And then Monday night, the first
raw of twenty twenty four. It's

1571
02:03:11.159 --> 02:03:14.600
the Day one edition of Raw.
I'll be live after that as well.

1572
02:03:15.399 --> 02:03:20.000
So you're gonna get me back to
back to back. Bring those likes.

1573
02:03:20.079 --> 02:03:27.359
Maybe we'll get to do be the
booker back to back to back the trifecta.

1574
02:03:27.439 --> 02:03:31.119
That's right anyway, Keep an eye
out because tomorrow, at some point

1575
02:03:31.199 --> 02:03:34.560
later in the day, my Ironclaw
review, once I get it recorded,

1576
02:03:35.600 --> 02:03:39.279
will be up for you guys.
So if you want to know my thoughts

1577
02:03:39.279 --> 02:03:43.359
on the movie, the Good and
the Bed and whether I think it's worth

1578
02:03:43.399 --> 02:03:46.159
seeing, it'll all be in that
review, So keep your eye out for

1579
02:03:46.199 --> 02:03:50.279
it until then, be well,
stay safe. Thank you all for the

1580
02:03:50.319 --> 02:03:54.439
love, Thank you for hanging out
with me all year long on these Dynamite

1581
02:03:54.479 --> 02:03:58.239
streams. For what is this the
fourth year in a row? When did

1582
02:03:58.279 --> 02:04:02.039
Dynamite start twenty nineteen? Right October? So it hasn't quite been a full

1583
02:04:02.399 --> 02:04:08.840
Well we'll carry on into twenty twenty
four. We'll have another great year of

1584
02:04:08.960 --> 02:04:14.199
Dynamite recaps. You guys will come
by you know the drill. I got

1585
02:04:14.239 --> 02:04:18.520

those of you who maybe have plans you're

1586
02:04:18.520 --> 02:04:20.800
not going to be around this weekend, let me just take a moment here
