1
00:00:00.360 --> 00:00:05.320
Tonight was the first AEW Dynamite of
twenty twenty four, and AW gave us

2
00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:10.160
an excellent episode to kick off the
new year, one that was focused very

3
00:00:10.279 --> 00:00:15.439
much on stories as we head into
this new year. We had Adam Cole

4
00:00:15.560 --> 00:00:21.399
and his new crew which has a
name, the Undisputed Kingdom. That is

5
00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:24.960
the new name the UK Crew,
I guess you can call them. They

6
00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:29.800
were in the house tonight on a
show that was really missing a lot of

7
00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:34.399
very big names. Kenny Omega we
know is out because of the diverticulitis,

8
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:38.840
but MJF not on the show tonight. The new AW World Champion. We

9
00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:42.920
had some footage of him from After
World's End, but Samoa Joe was not

10
00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:47.000
on the show tonight, So no
MJF, no Samoa Joe in the building.

11
00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:50.320
Chris Jericho was not on the show, which could be for any number

12
00:00:50.359 --> 00:00:56.240
of reasons. John Moxley and Brian
Danielson are in Japan because in just a

13
00:00:56.280 --> 00:01:00.439
few hours as we are here live
Tonight, New Japan is presenting Wressell Kingdom.

14
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:04.280
They are both on the car.
Danielson's going to be wrestling Kazuchko Akata.

15
00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:11.719
John Moxley is challenging for the brand
new IWGP Global title. Will Osprey

16
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:14.959
is not officially all Elite, yet
he's over there as well. So there

17
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:17.519
were a lot of big names missing
from the show tonight, and yet it

18
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:21.519
was very focused. It kept the
show moving. There were a lot of

19
00:01:21.519 --> 00:01:26.000
different things going on to keep your
attention. They opened the show with Adam

20
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:30.439
Cole and his new crew and him
giving the explanation for why they did what

21
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:34.439
they did. Why did Adam Cole
turn on his best friend or so we

22
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:38.319
thought, his best friend. And
they did a lot of things in this

23
00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:42.879
promo that I felt they had to
do. It served a purpose the mission

24
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:48.640
that they needed to get across with
this Adam Cole promo, which was to

25
00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:52.319
explain his actions and also let us
know what this group, what are they

26
00:01:52.359 --> 00:01:56.480
here for? What is the plan
here for the Undisputed Kingdom? Because MJF

27
00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:00.519
is he's going to be out for
a while. Adam Cole can't so Adam

28
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:04.000
Cole was on crutches, he's still
in a walking boot. He can't do

29
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:07.520
much. So what is their mission? Statement? And I thought they accomplished

30
00:02:07.520 --> 00:02:12.479
that in the opening segment. They
made it very clear what the roles are

31
00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:15.319
going to be for each member of
that faction and why they did what they

32
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:20.840
did. We also had the n
ring debut tonight of Mariah May, her

33
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:23.280
first match in an AW ring.
If you've seen some of her work in

34
00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:27.680
stardom, you know that she is
very good. We had yet to see

35
00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:30.719
her in the ring. We got
her in the ring tonight, but her

36
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:37.400
match was really a complete afterthought to
what came after the match, which was

37
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:44.159
the debut of a brand new talent
in the AAW women's division. You know,

38
00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:49.719
it is not the female talent that
most people were probably expecting or hoping

39
00:02:49.759 --> 00:02:57.439
for. Former Knockouts Champion from Impact
Wrestling, Dianna Parrazzo is all elite.

40
00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:01.039
She's got the graphic, which means
it's official, and so even though people

41
00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:06.879
may have been expecting someone else,
this is a hell of a pickup for

42
00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:10.280
AW. And she also here on
her first night in made it very clear

43
00:03:10.599 --> 00:03:15.800
that she is coming for Tony Storm. She's coming for the AW Women's World

44
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:21.960
Championship, and that is a great
addition to a women's division that, as

45
00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:24.560
I will talk about when we get
to the segment, when you really look

46
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:30.000
at who they have and the talent
they have in this women's division. If

47
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:34.759
Tony Khan can stay focused and really
give this division a jolt and give it

48
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.639
the attention that it needs, he
could have the best women's division in the

49
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:43.599
entire business. Now people sing the
praises of Seawn Michaels and NXT and what

50
00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:47.000
he's doing with the women down there, but aw has the ability to make

51
00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:53.319
their women's division the best in the
country. And the only person who will

52
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:58.520
decide whether or not that is the
case is Tony Khan. Will not be

53
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:02.199
Tony Storm, it will not be
Deanna Parrazzo or anybody else, because Tony

54
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:04.840
Kahan is the one who pulls the
strings. He's the one who makes the

55
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:09.840
matches. Ultimately, it will be
up to him. But we got a

56
00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:13.400
match on this show tonight. Fucking
loved this match. This was the match

57
00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:15.639
of the night and I don't even
think they announced it until maybe four o'clock

58
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:21.519
or five o'clock in the afternoon.
We had a match between Kenoski Takeshta,

59
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:26.879
who has barely been able to get
television time on his own. I mean,

60
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:29.560
if he's getting TV time, it's
with the other members of the Kallus

61
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:32.839
family. He's done tag team matches
and treos matches, but since he beat

62
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:41.319
Kenny Omega all out, he has
not exactly been featured very often in singles

63
00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:45.040
matches here on Dynamite. We got
him in a singles match tonight against Darby

64
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:49.160
Allen, and the minute I saw
the graphic announcing this match, I knew

65
00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:53.319
this match was going to be great. I just knew it from the moment

66
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:57.160
they announced that these two went out
there, and really it was more so

67
00:04:57.319 --> 00:05:00.839
Takeshka beating the crap out of Darby
Darby. I mean, look, what

68
00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:05.279
can you say? Every time I
see Darby Allen, it terrifies me because

69
00:05:05.279 --> 00:05:09.879
I don't know if this is going
to be the night, if this is

70
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:14.000
going to be the night that Darby
just doesn't get up because of the punishment

71
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:17.000
and the abuse that he he puts
himself through. This match was no different

72
00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:24.160
today. But this match made Takeshka
look like a beast. This gave him

73
00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:28.680
a huge win that I hopefully he'll
be able to build on this. Tony

74
00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:30.040
Khan will be able to build on
this. For Takeshka, I mean,

75
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:33.079
I know, you fuck me right. Giving Tony Kahan the benefit of the

76
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:38.560
doubt with Takeshka, but I've been
very unimpressed with what they've been doing with

77
00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:43.079
him of late, and every single
week that goes by that they don't do

78
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:46.759
something with this man again, that
those wins over Kenny Omega become less and

79
00:05:46.839 --> 00:05:51.160
less and less valuable. Now is
the time we have turned the calendar.

80
00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:56.240
It is now twenty twenty four.
Kenny Omega is out. We don't know

81
00:05:56.279 --> 00:05:58.560
how long he'll be out for.
He could be back next week, he

82
00:05:58.600 --> 00:06:02.079
could be back in three months,
don't know. But I want them to

83
00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:06.079
do more with Takeshta. Tonight was
a great start. He and Darby.

84
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:09.639
They beat the hell out of each
other and they had a great match.

85
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:14.480
My favorite match of the entire show, my favorite segment on the entire show,

86
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:18.800
involved these two men. And now
we also know that of My next

87
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:21.160
week is going to be back where
it all began. They're gonna be back

88
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:27.879
in Daily's place in Jacksonville and we're
getting a tag team match. Sting is

89
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:33.319
actually going to be wrestling on television
next week and what will be his Daily's

90
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:38.319
place farewell, this will be his
last time to step in the ring at

91
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:43.560
Daily's place. It's gonna be stinging
Darby against Takeshta and Hobbes. And the

92
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.560
only thing about that match is we
already know who's going to win, because

93
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:51.959
how much time is there between now
and his Magic Revolution two months? We're

94
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:57.800
two months away from Sting's final match. We're gonna beat Sting on television less

95
00:06:57.839 --> 00:07:01.360
than two months before his retirement match. I don't think so. I don't

96
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:04.439
think so. The only question is
how do they pick up the win.

97
00:07:05.279 --> 00:07:10.560
It seems clear that Darby will get
his win back after his loss tonight,

98
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:14.560
but I'm still looking forward to that
match because we get the two of them

99
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:18.439
back in the ring together. Trent
Burretta earned the right to be the first

100
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:26.480
man to challenge Eddie Kingston for the
brand new Triple Crown that Tony Kahn told

101
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:31.120
us previously was going to be one
of the most prestigious championships in all of

102
00:07:31.160 --> 00:07:38.079
aw one of the most prestigious titles
in all of wrestling. Eddie Kingston just

103
00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:43.759
went through hell in this Continental Classic. How many weeks, all those matches,

104
00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:46.759
fighting from the brink of elimination,
all the people he had to beat,

105
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:53.560
Brody King and Brian Danielson and John
Moxley, and he becomes the Triple

106
00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:59.800
Crown Champion, and he's defending his
title against Trent Burretta on Collision this Saturday.

107
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:05.279
It took all of one week for
this Continental title, which was supposed

108
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:07.600
to be one of the most prestigious
things in wrestling, to be relegated to

109
00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:13.240
basically the status of the International title. We already have an international title.

110
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:18.319
We don't need another one, but
that appears to be what we now have.

111
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:22.680
We had a main event on the
show also of Swerve Strickland and Daniel

112
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:28.000
Garcia. Daniel Garcia did not have
a lot of luck. He got one

113
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:33.840
win the entire Continental Classic. But
when he got that win, the people

114
00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:35.679
were behind him, right because he
was the underdog. They wanted to see

115
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:41.480
him beat Brody King and he did
and so even at World's End, I

116
00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:43.679
mean, they gave him the win
in the big tag match and the people

117
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:48.679
were behind him. So they're building
something with Daniel Garcia here, this underdog

118
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:52.240
story, right, and he does
the stupid dance, but the people like

119
00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:54.799
him. The people are getting behind
him, and they got Matt Monard out

120
00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:58.000
there every time he's in the ring
doing commentary, rooting on his boy.

121
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:01.879
Well, he was in the main
event tonight against Swerve, who is somebody

122
00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:05.159
who belongs in main events on this
show, and hopefully this is the first

123
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:09.360
Dynamite of the year. We have
Swerve in the main event. That's something

124
00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:13.279
I'd like to see more. They
had a very good main event. People

125
00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.759
were into it. People were behind
Daniel Garcia even though they liked Swerve.

126
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:22.000
Swerve is still playing heel. But
we had the return of Hangman Page on

127
00:09:22.039 --> 00:09:24.080
this show, first time we've seen
him since he got dropped on that car

128
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:28.039
windshield by the Devil's Minions. He
was looking for the Devil. He wants

129
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:31.159
his hands on Adam Cole. He
said, if I can't get him,

130
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:33.399
I'll get Joe. Well, he
didn't get either one of them. He

131
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:37.399
came out at the end of the
show to confront Hangman or a Swerve can't

132
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:43.399
confront himself. He confronted Swerve and
they went off the air where they pull

133
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:48.799
apart brawl between Hangman Page and Swerve
Strickland and you look at that and you

134
00:09:48.840 --> 00:09:54.440
go, how in the world can
they top the deathmatch that they had at

135
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:58.799
full gear. It's like almost what
is even the point of putting the two

136
00:09:58.799 --> 00:10:01.360
of them back in the ring together
or after the war, the two of

137
00:10:01.399 --> 00:10:07.320
them had at full gear, where
Swerve, by the way, went too

138
00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:11.559
straight up on Hangman. How do
you make things different? Do we really

139
00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:16.919
need Swerve and Hangman Part three?
I'm sure it would be fantastic, but

140
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:22.480
do we need it? We don't. But remember Hangman mentioned Joe. You

141
00:10:22.519 --> 00:10:28.600
know who else mentioned Samoa Joe tonight
in a backstage promo Swerve Strickland. And

142
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:33.559
now I as I look into the
future, we know Revolution is coming up.

143
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:37.519
We know Sting's gonna have his retirement
match. Sting will probably close out

144
00:10:37.519 --> 00:10:41.720
the show, especially if I'm right
and he ends up winning the tag team

145
00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:45.039
titles. I can't imagine that Tony
Kahn puts that anywhere but the main event

146
00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:48.600
in Greensboro. But you talk about
a double bill that night, we may

147
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:56.080
be looking at Samoa Joe, Hangman
Page and Swerve Strickland for the aw World

148
00:10:56.159 --> 00:11:01.120
Championship. Now you've made this a
little bit more interesting because now you've introduced

149
00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:07.120
the champion, and you've introduced the
championship. That ups the ane quite a

150
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:11.039
bit as opposed to just doing Swerve
and Hangman Part three. You put Joe

151
00:11:11.080 --> 00:11:15.679
in there, and now you've got
a hell of a comine event for revolution

152
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:18.720
if in fact that is the direction
they're going, which I think it should

153
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:22.480
be. So there were a lot
of different things going on on this show

154
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:26.080
tonight and a lot of big names
missing, but they didn't need them because

155
00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:30.279
I thought this was a very good
show. I enjoyed Dynamite, and we're

156
00:11:30.279 --> 00:11:33.320
going to go through the entire thing. This is your AW Dynamite review.

157
00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:37.320
It is Wednesday, January third,
twenty twenty four. I am the Solomonster

158
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:41.679
like and subscribe. Four hundred likes
is the goal. If we hit four

159
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:43.039
hundred, we will do beat the
booker. A little bit later on,

160
00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:50.000
this Dynamite show opened with footage from
After World's End in the back at the

161
00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:58.080
Nasau Coliseum with the brand new AW
World Champion Samoa Joe the King of AAW,

162
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:05.360
and Joe cut a scathing promo on
MJF. He said, he's not

163
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:11.360
a man who makes predictions, but
a man who keeps promises. He said

164
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:15.960
after Grand Slam, MJF thought that
Joe would be just like every other scumbag,

165
00:12:16.000 --> 00:12:18.879
but what he did to Joe was
turned around, or he turned it

166
00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:26.240
around on Max. Joe showed up
in front of mjf's friends and his family

167
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:31.320
out on Long Island, and he
took everything from him. He said,

168
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:35.639
MJF might be a scumbag, but
Joe is a heartless son of a bitch

169
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:39.919
and he will always take what is
his. I am Samoa Joe. I

170
00:12:39.960 --> 00:12:46.600
am the AEW World Champion, and
I will take everything from anyone who tries

171
00:12:46.679 --> 00:12:54.679
to take this from me. Love
it, love it. This is Samoa

172
00:12:54.799 --> 00:13:01.519
Joe at his best. This is
Samoa Joe in his comfort Zoe when he

173
00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:05.399
was the Ring of Honor Television champion
for five hundred sum odd days, right,

174
00:13:05.440 --> 00:13:07.960
he was at the top of that
division. He was beating people left

175
00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:11.600
and right, cutting promos on people. I think at one point he had

176
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:15.559
two titles, right. I think
at one point he had the TNT title

177
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:20.360
briefly and the ROH TV title.
And you know, he was going around

178
00:13:20.360 --> 00:13:24.039
on the King of Television and he's
walking around like a badass. He was

179
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:26.519
walking around like he owned the place. The only problem is, Samojo is

180
00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:31.120
much better than the Ring of Honor
television title. The Ring of Honor television

181
00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:35.600
title means nothing to Samoa Joe.
Samoa Jo is where he should be now.

182
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:39.080
He should be competing for the world
championship, and now he's getting a

183
00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:43.159
chance to be the world champion and
get a run for himself, which I'm

184
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:48.600
very happy to see, and I
hope that they give him time. I

185
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:52.120
would like to see Joe get a
proper run. Doesn't have to be a

186
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:56.360
year, but yeah, the idea
of him dropping it at Revolution, maybe

187
00:13:56.440 --> 00:14:01.480
dropping it to Swerve. I have
every expectation that at some point here in

188
00:14:01.480 --> 00:14:05.200
twenty twenty four, Swerve Strickland is
going to be the aw world champion.

189
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.879
If it doesn't happen at Revolution,
I'm okay with that. If they want

190
00:14:09.879 --> 00:14:15.200
to hold off on it until double
or nothing, let's say, I think

191
00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:18.440
that's perfectly fine. I think Joe
has earned the right to have himself a

192
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:24.039
solid run as the world champion until
they were ready to move that title onto

193
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:28.279
the next person. So I thought, this brief segment, this was the

194
00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:31.919
only dose of Saboa Joe we got
all night. He's going to be on

195
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:39.480
the show next week in the flesh, But this was great. After that,

196
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:41.399
we were off to the races.
Here. We had Adam Cole,

197
00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:46.879
we had Wardlow, we had Roderick
Strong in the Kingdom. This is after

198
00:14:46.919 --> 00:14:50.279
the big reveal at the end of
World's End when we found out who the

199
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:54.799
devil was, it was Adam Cole. They went with the most obvious choice.

200
00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:58.559
Doesn't make it a bad choice,
but it just makes it the most

201
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:05.559
obvious one. And it started with
Cohle's music, his babyface music is regular

202
00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:13.320
music. But then it cut to
a darker, slower theme with on the

203
00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:20.120
screen it said Undisputed and it had
crowns row Row Roman reigns gently down the

204
00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:26.799
stream. Row Row Roman reigns gently
down. Hey bob Ara, thank you

205
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:31.399
for the twenty two bucks man getting
us started here. Row Row Roman reigns.

206
00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:33.519
Let him row on out of here. We're not talking about Roman Reigns

207
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:39.039
tonight. Well, apparently it's going
to be on SmackDown on Friday to respond

208
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:43.480
to the Rock. You saw his
response on Twitter. It was just a

209
00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:50.240
laughing emoji. We'll see Roman.
We'll talk about Roman on Friday. But

210
00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:56.000
they have a name, and the
name of the faction is Undisputed Kingdom,

211
00:15:56.399 --> 00:15:58.879
which I think is fine. I
think that's a fine name. If not

212
00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:03.720
unoriginal, I think it works for
the group. So Cole was on crutches

213
00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:07.120
as he got to the ring and
again I brought that up in the World's

214
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:11.120
End review because some people may have
watched the end of that show it thought,

215
00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:14.559
oh, the injury was just the
work. But again, he never

216
00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:18.000
used the crutch as a weapon.
He never got physical. You know,

217
00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:25.279
he was hobbling around because he's still
recovering from double ankle surgery and it's gonna

218
00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:29.480
be a while before we see him
back in the ring. So they got

219
00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:32.960
in the ring. They set up
a chair for him, and Cole took

220
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:37.440
a seat in the chair in the
middle of the ring. Roddy told the

221
00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:41.720
fans to shut up and listen to
his best friend, Adam. We didn't

222
00:16:41.720 --> 00:16:45.679
get story time with Adam Cole because
that would get him cheered. It's not

223
00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:49.440
supposed to be a babyface anymore,
so it's no longer story time with Adam

224
00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:55.840
Cole. Cole asked the fans,
you don't have sympathy for me. I

225
00:16:55.840 --> 00:17:00.120
guess no sympathy for the devil on
this show. He said. He finds

226
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:04.039
it ironic that so many people were
shocked and appalled by what happened at World's

227
00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:11.160
End, which means we're all stupid
and we don't understand right from wrong.

228
00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:15.880
We think that he's the bad guy. We think that all of them are

229
00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:19.680
the bad guys for betraying MJF.
He said, MJF has run his mouth

230
00:17:19.759 --> 00:17:23.079
and made enemies in the locker room. If this makes him the bad guy,

231
00:17:23.119 --> 00:17:27.839
then buy him a first class ticket
straight to hell. Cole said MJF

232
00:17:27.920 --> 00:17:32.279
is a narcissist. He said,
most of the locker room, the fans,

233
00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:34.799
even Tony Kahan, will thank him
for what he did. Eventually,

234
00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:41.680
he said, MJF is gone and
he's never coming back, which of course

235
00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:47.200
means that MJF is coming back.
It might be a while, but we

236
00:17:47.240 --> 00:17:51.599
are going to get MJF back.
He said, MJF would have done the

237
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:53.799
same thing to him. He just
beat him to the punch, which a

238
00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:59.039
lot of us were talking about that
aspect of their whole bromance early on in

239
00:17:59.039 --> 00:18:03.039
the storyline. It was just the
case more than anything else. It was

240
00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:06.519
a case of who's going to turn
on who first? Right, we were

241
00:18:06.559 --> 00:18:10.480
all wondering, is it going to
be MJF who's going to turn on him?

242
00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:12.319
But that would be too obvious.
Maybe Cole goes heel, he turns

243
00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:15.480
on MJF first, And that's what
they did. They dragged it out.

244
00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:21.319
They turned it into a whole mystery
who done it storyline, But in the

245
00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:23.559
end it was Adam Cole who went
heel and beat him to the punch.

246
00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:29.599
He said he never needed MJF.
MJF is the one who needed him.

247
00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:33.000
Cole said he sacrificed everything for their
friendship. He even broke his ankle.

248
00:18:33.359 --> 00:18:40.240
He lost something not MJF, and
the fans wouldn't even be cheering for MJF

249
00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:44.640
right now if it wasn't for him. Cole said that he saved mjf's title

250
00:18:44.680 --> 00:18:48.799
reign and he ended it. In
the beginning, it was all about the

251
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:52.880
AW World title, but then it
turned into something much more. This is

252
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:59.039
about destroying a man to his core. This is about ripping out a man's

253
00:18:59.079 --> 00:19:03.799
heart and bringing him to his knees. And the fans started channing for MJF.

254
00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:10.240
Cole said, MJF is dead.
I didn't even know he was sick.

255
00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:17.079
Said you know who's very much alive, the undisputed Kingdom. He set.

256
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:19.359
Aside from their disdain for a guy
who no longer works in AAW,

257
00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:26.319
they also have the desire to win
championship. Goal In COmON, Cole introduced

258
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:30.960
Tavid and Bennett as the ring of
honor World Tag Team Champions. Cole then

259
00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:37.119
turned to Roddy said that he would
go after the AAW International title and Wardlow

260
00:19:37.240 --> 00:19:41.200
is finally with a group of people
who respect him, and he will go

261
00:19:41.240 --> 00:19:47.039
after the AEW World Championship. And
when the time is right, he said,

262
00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:51.359
when he's all healed up from his
ankle injury, Wardlow will do the

263
00:19:51.440 --> 00:19:59.400
right thing and he will forfeit the
AW World Championship to him, and Wardlow

264
00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:03.920
nodded in approval, but he had
this look on his face like, sure,

265
00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:11.319
buddy, whatever you say. Already
planting the seeds for problems down the

266
00:20:11.400 --> 00:20:15.920
road. They have not even been
a group for a full week. Already

267
00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:22.920
planting the seeds of dissension in this
group. And Samoa Joe says Adam Cole,

268
00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:26.000
it was a pleasure doing business with
you, but I hope that you're

269
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:30.519
not the champion by the time Wardlow
works his way up the ranks for a

270
00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:36.119
title shot, because it would sure
suck to hurt a friend. And he

271
00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:40.279
smirked when he said that. Cole
said, self esteem is built on action,

272
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:42.200
and they took action. They were
sick and tired of waiting for things

273
00:20:42.240 --> 00:20:47.519
to change because aew needed change,
and they gave that to us. Cole

274
00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:52.000
said, the Undisputed Kingdom starts a
new chapter in aw and then he held

275
00:20:52.079 --> 00:20:56.599
up the devil mask and he closed
by saying, the Devil is here to

276
00:20:56.759 --> 00:21:06.039
stay, Babe. A great promo, I thought. Adam Cole is very

277
00:21:06.079 --> 00:21:10.000
good in this role. As much
as the people love Cole as a babyface

278
00:21:10.039 --> 00:21:12.559
and they love his music and doing
the whole boom and everything else, when

279
00:21:12.599 --> 00:21:18.599
he comes out, it's easy to
forget he's a terrific heel because Adam Cole.

280
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:21.960
Everybody says the same thing about Adam
Cole, and when you hear him

281
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:25.359
speak or you see him on social
media, is the nicest guy in the

282
00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:29.559
world. Right, How could the
nicest guy in the world be such a

283
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:33.279
prick on television. But he's very
good at it. And since he can't

284
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:37.079
do anything physically because he's not medically
cleared, the one thing he's good at

285
00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:42.240
is running his mouth and cutting promos. And so for however much longer he's

286
00:21:42.279 --> 00:21:45.519
going to be out for, at
least we can get him making appearances on

287
00:21:45.599 --> 00:21:49.599
most weeks, maybe not every week, but on most weeks he can be

288
00:21:49.680 --> 00:21:53.559
on television and he could be Look, you want to get even more heat

289
00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:59.720
on him the old heeled trope.
Put him in a wheelchair, have his

290
00:21:59.720 --> 00:22:03.400
buttyse wheel him out there every single
week and he can just heal on the

291
00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:07.359
crowd. And eventually when MJF comes
out, if he's still in a wheelchair,

292
00:22:07.359 --> 00:22:10.599
he chasing after a guy in a
wheel chair, he can wheel him

293
00:22:10.599 --> 00:22:15.000
down the ramp. We've We've seen
that time and time again. So he's

294
00:22:15.039 --> 00:22:22.680
a great heel. I like that. They address why Cole would not care

295
00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:29.119
that Samoa Joe beat MJF to win
the world title on Saturday, because that

296
00:22:29.240 --> 00:22:30.640
was one of the things that we
were talking about in the post show,

297
00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:37.200
which is that why would Adam Cole
want Samoa Joe to be the one to

298
00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:41.240
take the title from MJF. Wouldn't
Adam Cole want to be the one to

299
00:22:41.319 --> 00:22:45.880
take the title off MJF himself.
Well, the issue is that he's fucking

300
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:49.160
hurt and so is MJF. So
they had to get the belt off of

301
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:53.240
him. And so you can't just
wait for Adam Cole to get better and

302
00:22:53.240 --> 00:22:56.480
then put him in the ring.
So they had to get the belt off

303
00:22:56.559 --> 00:23:00.480
MJF. I may not be a
huge fan of the way they did it

304
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:03.400
because it was a little confusing.
I thought maybe there would be something else

305
00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:07.319
that would happen that would lead to
the title change. But in any event,

306
00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:11.559
I liked that he took the time
to explain this started all about the

307
00:23:11.559 --> 00:23:15.960
aw World title, and along the
way things changed. It wasn't about the

308
00:23:17.000 --> 00:23:22.559
title anymore so much as it was
about stroying one man and making that man's

309
00:23:22.599 --> 00:23:26.799
life a living hell. And one
way to do that is to take the

310
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:29.720
title from him, because that is
the one thing that meant more to him

311
00:23:29.720 --> 00:23:33.839
than anything else. That's basically what
he was conveying here in this problem.

312
00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:37.440
So you don't have to like what
they did at World's End and the way

313
00:23:37.480 --> 00:23:40.839
they booked that finish of the main
event. It's okay to think it sucked

314
00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:42.559
or not like it. But I
like the fact that he took the time

315
00:23:42.599 --> 00:23:45.799
to say, you know what,
it was about the title, but at

316
00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:49.799
some point it became about something much
more than that, because at least they

317
00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:57.559
tried to explain that. They also
want us to think very badly that MJF

318
00:23:57.640 --> 00:24:02.640
is not coming back. It's very
interesting to know that for all those promos

319
00:24:02.680 --> 00:24:07.920
over the past year, maybe even
year and a half, where MJF would

320
00:24:07.920 --> 00:24:14.079
allude to jolly old Saint Nick and
the Bidding War of twenty twenty four.

321
00:24:14.160 --> 00:24:17.400
My contract is up on January first, right at the beginning of the year.

322
00:24:17.839 --> 00:24:19.160
We have not heard when was the
last time we heard about the Bidding

323
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:22.079
War of twenty twenty four. It
has not been broached at all, And

324
00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:25.640
I'm sure a lot of that has
to do with the fact that MJF became

325
00:24:25.680 --> 00:24:29.440
a babyface. That wouldn't be a
very babyface thing to do, to tease

326
00:24:29.480 --> 00:24:33.599
that you're gonna leave the company and
take the title with you. But they've

327
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:37.160
completely dropped it. It seems even
here that there was no mention of the

328
00:24:37.160 --> 00:24:42.799
Bidding War of twenty twenty four.
The fact is that MJF at least I

329
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:48.119
saw a Melter meant he made some
kind of comment about MJF as debating should

330
00:24:48.119 --> 00:24:52.839
he have surgery or should he rehab
his his torn labor and he's all banged

331
00:24:52.880 --> 00:24:55.799
up. I guess his hip is
probably bothering him. It's not just the

332
00:24:55.839 --> 00:25:00.039
shoulder, but you know, evidently
he's banged up enough that he may need

333
00:25:00.079 --> 00:25:03.960
surgery. But if he has surgery, he's going to be out for a

334
00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:07.799
lot longer. So apparently he's deciding
whether or not he should have surgery or

335
00:25:07.799 --> 00:25:12.599
not. So we don't know how
long he is going to be out for.

336
00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:17.839
It could be some time. But
it is very interesting that they have

337
00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:25.000
seemed to have dropped all mentions of
this bidding war storyline, at least for

338
00:25:25.039 --> 00:25:30.440
the time being. But where I
think this is eventually building to is you

339
00:25:30.559 --> 00:25:36.000
have to imagine that Cole Well,
I mean, we'll see because MJF if

340
00:25:36.000 --> 00:25:38.960
he has surgery, but the two
of them, as banged up and hurt

341
00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:42.240
as they are, they get them
back in time. I still feel like

342
00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:48.160
that's your Wembley match, and not
for the title. But one year later

343
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:49.839
they were in the main event of
the first Wembley Show. One year later

344
00:25:51.400 --> 00:25:56.440
they do MJF and Cole non title
on the undercard at all in I would

345
00:25:56.440 --> 00:26:00.279
think that's what the direction is here. The other thing I like about this

346
00:26:00.640 --> 00:26:04.400
they have carved out a clear path, as he did in this promo,

347
00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:10.119
for each of the members of the
UK Crew Kingdom of the Ring of Honor

348
00:26:10.200 --> 00:26:14.200
World Tag Team Champions, so they
got the tag angle of this whole thing

349
00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:17.160
covered right, They'll they'll be doing
the tag team match thing for a while

350
00:26:17.200 --> 00:26:18.920
whatever. I mean the Ring of
Honor World tag team titles. Who cares,

351
00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:23.920
But they're the tag team members of
this crew, and it seems like

352
00:26:23.960 --> 00:26:26.839
they're taking steps to try to heat
up the tag team division now. Even

353
00:26:26.839 --> 00:26:30.720
though they're the Ring of Honor World
Tag Team Champions, it doesn't mean that

354
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:33.680
we're not going to get them on
Dynamite and Collision. We should. I

355
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:37.000
don't care if they have the Ring
of Honor tag team titles or not,

356
00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:40.480
because that don't mean shit to me. But if they're part of the top

357
00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:42.839
heel faction in the company, then
we should be getting Tavid and Bennett wrestling

358
00:26:42.839 --> 00:26:47.359
and making appearances on the main shows. So that's their role here in this

359
00:26:47.480 --> 00:26:52.359
crew. Roddy is interesting because Cole
specifically mentioned the fact that Roderick Strong is

360
00:26:52.400 --> 00:26:57.319
going to go after the International title
and that is his goal is to bring

361
00:26:57.359 --> 00:27:03.400
that championship into the group and then
Wardlow has to work his way back up

362
00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:10.160
into top contention to get a shot
at the aw World Championship, and Cole

363
00:27:10.240 --> 00:27:15.039
telling him that he expects that after
Wardlow wins the title, that he will

364
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:18.079
simply forfeit the title and hand it
over to Adam Cole. They are already

365
00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:23.960
setting up the eventual Wardlow babyface turn. And I like that, right.

366
00:27:25.039 --> 00:27:29.440
I mean it was a subtle thing. If you looked at Wardlow's expression in

367
00:27:29.480 --> 00:27:33.200
the background when Cole made that comment, it was a subtle thing, but

368
00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:36.799
it was just a little seed planted
for way down the road. I mean,

369
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:38.480
we could be looking at a year
from now, but for way down

370
00:27:38.559 --> 00:27:44.400
the road. They're already telling you, we have an idea in mind of

371
00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:48.559
how this is going to go down
when the time comes to get Wardlow over

372
00:27:48.599 --> 00:27:51.920
as a babyface again. And they
have a lot of work to do to

373
00:27:52.000 --> 00:27:55.519
try to get Wardlow back even close
to where he was when he was at

374
00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:59.359
his peak of popularity, because he
was up here and now he's all the

375
00:27:59.359 --> 00:28:03.440
way down here, and him being
a part of this crew is the best

376
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:06.559
thing that could happen to him.
And made that comment the other night because

377
00:28:06.599 --> 00:28:10.240
on his own since he came back, he was dying on the vine.

378
00:28:11.160 --> 00:28:12.960
Him being in the background the way
he was in the ring tonight, standing

379
00:28:12.960 --> 00:28:17.359
behind Adam Cole. You know,
in a way it feels like, you

380
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:21.640
know, two steps backward for him
because that's what he was doing before when

381
00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:23.480
MJF was a heel. It's like
now he's back in the old role.

382
00:28:23.640 --> 00:28:30.039
But that's the role that got him
over. And if anybody had any reason

383
00:28:30.599 --> 00:28:33.559
to want to fuck over MJF,
it makes sense that he would be part

384
00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:37.279
of this crew. I think it's
smart, even if it feels like a

385
00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:41.319
retread. It's what got him over
in the first place. It worked once

386
00:28:41.400 --> 00:28:48.400
before, and Tony conn is hoping
that it will work again. But we

387
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:52.759
were not done yet here in this
segment because Jay White, he came out

388
00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:57.079
on stage at a microphone, and
the announcers pointed out it reminded us if

389
00:28:57.079 --> 00:29:00.400
you remember that the first victim of
the The Devil and his crew was j

390
00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:04.440
White when they showed him being attacked
in the backstage area. That was the

391
00:29:04.480 --> 00:29:10.680
first appearance of The Devil on aw
television. JA White hasn't forgotten about that,

392
00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:15.079
so he said he's a big fan
of what Cole did to MJF.

393
00:29:15.119 --> 00:29:18.279
But he hasn't forgotten what they did
to him. And he is not alone.

394
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:22.640
And the guns came out. No
Juice Robinson, he had back surgery.

395
00:29:22.680 --> 00:29:26.720
He's gonna be gone for a while, so the guns came out in

396
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:32.279
Bullet Club Gold charged to the ring. They started brawling with the United Yeah,

397
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:38.880
United Kingdom, the Undisputed Kingdom.
They don't have anything against the UK,

398
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:45.880
the Undisputed Kingdom. I'll get it
right. They all start brawling.

399
00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:49.480
Cole was watching from ringside. The
numbers game was too much for Bullet Club

400
00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:52.839
Gold. So who comes out to
make the save? And it really wasn't

401
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:57.960
a save so much as they also
were victims of the Devil's Crew and wanted

402
00:29:57.960 --> 00:30:04.160
their revenge and Billy Gunn and they
stormed down to the ring and the UK

403
00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:08.400
members ducked out to the floor.
Cole was hiding behind Doc Sampson at ringside

404
00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:12.279
of the doctor was looking up at
the acclaim saying he's not medically cleared.

405
00:30:12.319 --> 00:30:17.640
He's got a bad ankle. You
can't touch the guy. And that's how

406
00:30:17.680 --> 00:30:22.880
they closed out the segment. Now, if Orange Cassidy is on the card

407
00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:26.480
on a Wednesday, you know that
he is in the opening match of the

408
00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:29.480
night, because he's always in the
fucking opening match on this show. Tonight

409
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:37.400
was no different. It was Orange
Cassidy defending the International Championship like clockwork against

410
00:30:37.480 --> 00:30:42.799
Dante Martin. We got a series
of pen attempts by Dante until Cassidy regrouped

411
00:30:42.839 --> 00:30:48.799
outside. Cassidy baited him to the
floor. He hit a dive and he

412
00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:53.960
sent Dante face first against the barricade. Cassidy went to the pockets and he

413
00:30:53.960 --> 00:30:59.920
did a little run around the ringside
area hit a shotgun dropkick. Cassidy won

414
00:31:00.000 --> 00:31:02.920
out to the souplex. Dante reversed
it into one of his zone on the

415
00:31:02.920 --> 00:31:08.039
floor and that took us into the
commercial break. After a long battle for

416
00:31:08.079 --> 00:31:15.400
a souplex, Cassidy hit a stun
dog Millionaire, but Dante quickly answered with

417
00:31:15.480 --> 00:31:22.839
a toupe to the floor and a
springboard crossbody back inside for two. Dante

418
00:31:22.880 --> 00:31:26.920
took a page from the OC play
book and he started throwing the little chops

419
00:31:26.920 --> 00:31:30.160
and the little kicks. Then he
ate a thrust kick for his troubles.

420
00:31:30.680 --> 00:31:37.799
Cassidy ended up hitting a round the
World DDT for two, and then Cassidy

421
00:31:37.839 --> 00:31:41.960
went up, but he got cut
off by Dante, who was shoved and

422
00:31:41.000 --> 00:31:48.279
back flipped off and got planted with
a diving DDT by Orange Cassidy. Dante

423
00:31:48.359 --> 00:31:52.480
was able to dodge the orange punch
in the beach break. He countered into

424
00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:56.359
a pop up knee lift for a
close near fall, and Martin tried multiple

425
00:31:56.400 --> 00:32:00.720
times to go up top. Every
time he dide would do the slow roll

426
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:07.640
away and Dante said, fuck that, did a little rope block, dove

427
00:32:07.680 --> 00:32:12.359
across the ring and he splashed onto
him. Anyway, only got two and

428
00:32:12.400 --> 00:32:17.599
finally Cassidy dodged a shotgun dropkick.
He connected on the orange punch, and

429
00:32:17.720 --> 00:32:24.839
he retains the International Championship. Fast
paced as you would expect from a Dante

430
00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:30.960
Martin match. Again, it doesn't
cease to amaze me. He came back

431
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:35.240
as quickly as he did from that
horrific injury. Never a bad way to

432
00:32:35.279 --> 00:32:37.119
open the show though, and have
a quick, you know, first match

433
00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:42.440
like this at these two go at
it back and forth international title, get

434
00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:44.839
a title match out there. I
mean, that's why Tony Khan does it

435
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:47.920
right. He's a huge Orange Cassidy
fan. I know there was a period

436
00:32:47.920 --> 00:32:52.440
of time where his segments did really
well. I don't know if they still

437
00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:54.279
do. I don't even pay attention
most of the time anymore. I don't

438
00:32:54.319 --> 00:32:59.200
give a shit about that stuff.
Same thing with Raw and everything out The

439
00:32:59.440 --> 00:33:02.400
ratings really don't change on these shows. Dynamite is always going to get there

440
00:33:04.079 --> 00:33:09.519
seven seventy to like nine to ten. Raw is gonna get its one point

441
00:33:09.559 --> 00:33:15.160
four to one point eight at least
until football is over. Then maybe they'll

442
00:33:15.160 --> 00:33:19.400
creep back up until you'll creep back
up to like two million. I know

443
00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:24.079
the Rock segment on Monday did two
million, but the numbers really don't seem

444
00:33:24.079 --> 00:33:30.599
to change all that much anymore.
It's kind of boring. I am completely

445
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:35.160
over Orange Cassidy is the International champion, I really am. I mean,

446
00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:37.319
there are people who will not give
the devil his due for his in ring

447
00:33:37.400 --> 00:33:40.400
work. He's had some great matches
in aw and there are people who just

448
00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:45.799
want to shit on him and they
won't even acknowledge that. So he's had

449
00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:50.359
great matches before. I don't have
anything against him. His run is tired,

450
00:33:50.519 --> 00:33:52.200
it's played out. I don't know
why they put the belt back on

451
00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:55.759
him in the first place. I
am ready to see somebody else with that

452
00:33:55.839 --> 00:34:04.200
championship, somebody other than Orange Cassidy. Now I've been talking about Takeshta.

453
00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:09.599
We heard Adam Cole in the opening
segment talk about Roddy going after the international

454
00:34:09.639 --> 00:34:14.039
time. The sooner they can get
that belt off of him and into the

455
00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:17.519
United Kingdom, the better. That's
where the belt should be anywhere. But

456
00:34:17.599 --> 00:34:21.760
Orange Cassidy, I don't see what
purpose it's serving you by keeping this title

457
00:34:21.800 --> 00:34:25.079
line. When the match was over, Hook and Dan Housen, they came

458
00:34:25.119 --> 00:34:30.679
in to check on Cassidy, Darius
Martin and Action Andretti. They attended to

459
00:34:31.320 --> 00:34:37.639
Dante. He shook hands with Cassidy. Then they were interrupted. They were

460
00:34:37.639 --> 00:34:44.760
interrupted by a familiar theme, private
parties theme, and out came Isaiah Cassidy

461
00:34:45.360 --> 00:34:49.960
and Mark Quinn. Very very nice
to see Mark Quinn bag Mark Quinn.

462
00:34:50.039 --> 00:34:52.840
First of all, Private party,
A couple of House of Glory boys,

463
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:58.239
right, they came up, they
cut their teeth and hog very familiar big

464
00:34:58.280 --> 00:35:01.719
fans of theirs. So Mark Quinn
has not wrestled the match since November of

465
00:35:01.719 --> 00:35:05.960
twenty twenty two. He has been
out of the ring for over a year

466
00:35:06.159 --> 00:35:10.599
recovering from an injury. And they've
had Isaiah Cassidy doing the brothers' ay

467
00:35:10.840 --> 00:35:15.440
stuff with the hearty's Thank god that's
over, Thank God that's over, and

468
00:35:15.480 --> 00:35:19.719
we have the two of them back
together. They have the velvet rope,

469
00:35:20.119 --> 00:35:25.840
the security guy let them through and
Cassidy cut a promo and he talked about

470
00:35:27.440 --> 00:35:32.400
the tag team division has been lacking, missing flavor and excitement. They got

471
00:35:32.400 --> 00:35:37.840
in the ring and they said they
were putting every team unnotice, including FTR,

472
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:45.679
the Young Bucks, and even the
Heartys. So again, great to

473
00:35:45.719 --> 00:35:49.480
see the two of them back together. And look, I I'm not going

474
00:35:49.559 --> 00:35:52.599
to pretend that Private Party being back
is suddenly going to set the tag team

475
00:35:52.639 --> 00:35:59.039
division in this company on fire.
What I really liked hearing in this segment

476
00:35:59.280 --> 00:36:04.480
was coming out and putting the entire
division on notice, and now we have

477
00:36:04.760 --> 00:36:10.280
Private Party back. My hope as
we go into this new year is that

478
00:36:10.400 --> 00:36:15.880
AAW was able to find that renewed
spark for the tag team division. There

479
00:36:15.920 --> 00:36:21.360
was a period of time where AW
had the best tag team division in all

480
00:36:21.400 --> 00:36:24.239
of wrestling. I mean it was
ridiculous, just the number, the sheer

481
00:36:24.320 --> 00:36:28.199
number of just teams and talent.
And you had the Luca Bros. And

482
00:36:28.239 --> 00:36:31.000
you had the Bucks, and you
had you know, Omega and Hangman representing

483
00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:36.280
the Elite, and you had all
of these different teams, had the Dark

484
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:37.639
Order, you have plenty of teams. I didn't care about either, but

485
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:42.079
it was a stacked tag team division. And it's not as if they don't

486
00:36:42.119 --> 00:36:46.039
have a lot of great teams now
right You've you've got the House of Black,

487
00:36:46.119 --> 00:36:50.679
and you've got FTR, and you've
got Ricky and Big Bill right now

488
00:36:50.760 --> 00:36:53.800
were the tag team champions, and
I think Sting and Darby frankly are going

489
00:36:53.880 --> 00:36:59.719
to win them a revolution. But
you've got tons of teams and it doesn't

490
00:36:59.719 --> 00:37:05.960
feel like they have the best tag
team division anymore. That that excitement is

491
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:08.039
not there, that buzz around the
division is not there the way that it

492
00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:12.920
used to be. If there is
a renewed focus put on this division,

493
00:37:13.320 --> 00:37:17.360
which really is what brought AW to
the map, we're some fucking great classic

494
00:37:17.400 --> 00:37:22.079
tag team matches. That is something
I would like to see because that was

495
00:37:22.119 --> 00:37:27.119
a hallmark of the original AW.
You know, for all the people who

496
00:37:27.639 --> 00:37:31.079
talk about how Aw's gotten away from
what brought them to the dance and man,

497
00:37:31.159 --> 00:37:35.199
you know, back in twenty twenty, twenty twenty one is when it

498
00:37:35.320 --> 00:37:37.320
was, you know, at its
peak, and I wish we could go

499
00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:42.199
back to that and all that kind
of stuff. The tag team division was

500
00:37:42.239 --> 00:37:45.880
a very big part of that.
And so if we can get a renewed

501
00:37:45.880 --> 00:37:47.719
spark the I think that would be
fantastic and where I'm gonna talk about the

502
00:37:47.719 --> 00:37:52.320
women's division as well here in a
second. But that gives me hope for

503
00:37:52.760 --> 00:37:59.719
hopefully what's to come now. Renee
was in the back and she was in

504
00:37:59.719 --> 00:38:07.519
black White with Timeless, Tony Storm, and Luther. She congratulated Tony on

505
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:13.360
retaining her title over Rijo at World's
End. She told Renee that her perfume

506
00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:17.920
was overwhelming. She was also very
excited to come here tonight until she realized

507
00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:25.920
that this isn't New York, it's
New Jersey. I can relate because sometimes

508
00:38:25.960 --> 00:38:28.920
I have to go out of state
and then I realize, oh, I'm

509
00:38:28.920 --> 00:38:34.400
in New Jersey. I can't wait
to get back to New York. So

510
00:38:34.480 --> 00:38:37.559
she has to say. You could
hear the disgust in her voice. So

511
00:38:37.599 --> 00:38:44.199
she's decided to head to Manhattan to
have a seance for Stephen Sondheim. Renee

512
00:38:44.280 --> 00:38:46.519
said, that's great, But coming
up next, Mariah May is going to

513
00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:51.400
have her in ring debut here on
Dynamite, and she has been begging for

514
00:38:51.480 --> 00:38:58.719
Tony to watch one of her matches, and Tony said, Darling, I

515
00:38:58.800 --> 00:39:05.199
don't watch rest, just the way
that she said it was just fantastic.

516
00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:09.320
I don't watch wrestling. I used
to have a friend who would say,

517
00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:14.920
is just like that. I don't
watch that wrestling crap, she says.

518
00:39:14.960 --> 00:39:17.000
Besides, how hard could it be? The girl could do with paying her

519
00:39:17.119 --> 00:39:21.800
dues, and what better way to
do that than to wrestle in New Jersey.

520
00:39:22.920 --> 00:39:27.039
So she told Luther to scoop her
up. She put her chin up,

521
00:39:27.559 --> 00:39:31.880
her tits out, she kicked off
one of her shoes, and Luther

522
00:39:32.320 --> 00:39:37.239
carried her off. Tony Storm is
a national treasure. This woman must be

523
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:44.360
protected at all costs. Hey,
Bryce, thank you Bryce for the nine

524
00:39:44.440 --> 00:39:47.239
ninety nine, sir. I appreciate
it, and I'm going to get to

525
00:39:47.280 --> 00:39:52.039
all your super chats a little bit
later, So thank you, thank you.

526
00:39:52.679 --> 00:39:57.000
We got a video up next from
the House of Black. So the

527
00:39:57.039 --> 00:40:01.320
House of Black challenged FTR to a
match on Collision coming Saturday. Malachi and

528
00:40:01.360 --> 00:40:06.320
Buddy. They had a photo of
Dax Harwood and his family that they burned,

529
00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:09.519
and they said, once FTR loses, they'll have to accept a family

530
00:40:09.719 --> 00:40:15.440
that truly loves them. Renee was
backstage again. This time she welcomed Swerve

531
00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:22.920
Strickland, and Prince Nana asked about
tonight's main event against Daniel Garcia. Nana

532
00:40:22.920 --> 00:40:27.760
said that Garcia is a respected competitor, but he's getting into the ring with

533
00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:32.239
the boss of bosses, and Swerve
called Garcia a blue league guy because I

534
00:40:32.280 --> 00:40:37.039
didn't really have a chance to mix
it up with you during the Continental Classic.

535
00:40:37.599 --> 00:40:39.800
He said, Garcia is getting this
match tonight because Garcia is after the

536
00:40:39.800 --> 00:40:44.719
same thing that he was in twenty
twenty three, that being Championship gold.

537
00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:49.960
And he said big pressure is not
about making diamonds, it's about making pain.

538
00:40:51.039 --> 00:40:53.719
Swerve said that he was looking forward
to going after MJF, but his

539
00:40:53.840 --> 00:41:02.119
body couldn't hold up, so he
told Samoa Joe to stay ready. We

540
00:41:02.119 --> 00:41:07.880
had Mariah May in her AW debut
match against Queen Amanada, who has made

541
00:41:08.039 --> 00:41:12.320
a handful of appearances over the last
few years. I think going back to

542
00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:17.119
twenty twenty one on AW Dark and
Dark Elevation when that was still a thing.

543
00:41:17.679 --> 00:41:21.880
So she's made some appearances before,
but never on Dynamite. I have

544
00:41:21.960 --> 00:41:27.719
not seen her work before because I
was not watching Dark Elevation. Mariah leveled

545
00:41:27.760 --> 00:41:32.320
her with a slap and then started
dishing out some chops in the ropes in

546
00:41:32.440 --> 00:41:38.239
a tilted whirl head scissors charging dropkick
connected and then Amanada was trapped in the

547
00:41:38.320 --> 00:41:42.119
ropes and Mariah came off the ropes, had a hard drop kick to the

548
00:41:42.159 --> 00:41:47.199
back. It was all Mariah during
the picture and picture Amanada avoided a corner

549
00:41:47.239 --> 00:41:51.960
head scissors and decked Mariah hard with
a slap to the face, and then

550
00:41:52.000 --> 00:41:57.000
another and then another, and each
time she slapped this woman in the face

551
00:41:57.159 --> 00:42:01.320
harder and harder. The fans made
more and more. She had the people

552
00:42:01.840 --> 00:42:07.239
ooing an eye at these slaps to
the face. And I you know,

553
00:42:07.280 --> 00:42:10.239
I could be mistaken here, But
a little bit later on there was somebody

554
00:42:10.239 --> 00:42:15.280
who came out. They showed a
close up of Mariah's face and it again,

555
00:42:15.360 --> 00:42:16.960
maybe it was the angle, but
it looked to me like maybe her

556
00:42:17.000 --> 00:42:21.440
face was a little swollen. I
would not be surprised if she had a

557
00:42:21.519 --> 00:42:25.320
swollen cheek after some of the smacks
that she took care from Amanada. But

558
00:42:25.599 --> 00:42:30.360
you know, Mariah worked in start
so for her, Yeah, the way

559
00:42:30.360 --> 00:42:32.920
those women work over there in stardom. I mean, she was in the

560
00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:37.920
ring with Julie for crying out loud. These slaps are nothing. These slaps

561
00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:40.280
are nothing compared to what she had
to take in the ring with those ladies.

562
00:42:44.199 --> 00:42:46.360
So the fans were getting behind Amanada. Here she was on offense.

563
00:42:47.159 --> 00:42:52.000
She connected on a running knee in
some corner elbow strikes. She went for

564
00:42:52.039 --> 00:42:55.280
another one. Mariah exploded out of
the corner with a sling blade and then

565
00:42:55.360 --> 00:43:01.159
hit her sit out fireman's Carrie slam. She calls may Day and she picked

566
00:43:01.239 --> 00:43:06.719
up her first win in aaw Unfortunately, half the match was in picture and

567
00:43:06.800 --> 00:43:10.320
picture, so that sucked. It
wasn't a long enough match, I think

568
00:43:10.360 --> 00:43:14.559
for people to really get a sense
of what Mariah can do. You saw

569
00:43:14.559 --> 00:43:16.440
glimpses of it. She was working
a little stiff here in this match,

570
00:43:16.800 --> 00:43:22.119
which makes sense given that she just
came from Japan. But again, not

571
00:43:22.400 --> 00:43:27.480
enough of a match to really be
able to judge if you've never seen Mariah

572
00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:30.519
in the ring before. But I
thought we got a solid first outing from

573
00:43:30.519 --> 00:43:34.599
her. Amanada was impressive to you. The way that she had the crowd

574
00:43:34.639 --> 00:43:37.320
getting behind her late in the match, I thought was impressive. Now,

575
00:43:37.320 --> 00:43:42.559
Renee got in the ring to interview
Mariah and asked her about how it felt

576
00:43:42.559 --> 00:43:45.800
to win her first match. She
geeked out that she just won her first

577
00:43:45.800 --> 00:43:49.800
match on Dynamite, and she hoped
that Tony Storm, wherever she is,

578
00:43:49.800 --> 00:43:53.599
is watching and that she's proud of
her because it's the first Dynamite of the

579
00:43:53.679 --> 00:44:00.920
year and it is all about Mariah. But her only regret is that they

580
00:44:00.920 --> 00:44:08.320
had to do this in New Jersey
and the crowd booed until we got some

581
00:44:08.400 --> 00:44:14.880
theme music that I did not recognize
some people did, and then up on

582
00:44:14.920 --> 00:44:22.280
the screen it said the virtuosa An
out comes Dianna Parrazzo, New Jersey's own

583
00:44:23.679 --> 00:44:30.360
Dianna Parrazzo, former Impact Knockouts champion, and she came down to the ring.

584
00:44:31.719 --> 00:44:37.119
Renee said, it was incredible to
see her here in aew the fans

585
00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:39.480
chanted her name, so they knew
who she was. It's not like she

586
00:44:39.559 --> 00:44:43.920
came out and people were like,
ah, you know, eh whatever,

587
00:44:44.840 --> 00:44:49.639
or who is this person? Like
they knew who she was. And she

588
00:44:49.800 --> 00:44:52.880
reminded us that she is from New
Jersey and if Tony Storm doesn't want to

589
00:44:52.920 --> 00:44:57.320
be here, then trust me,
we all don't want her here either.

590
00:44:57.480 --> 00:45:02.360
She sounded very nervous in her promo
here. I mean, look her first

591
00:45:02.400 --> 00:45:07.880
time cutting to promo here on the
TBS, so she may have been a

592
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:10.599
little bit nervous, but she said, Mariah, I have a message you

593
00:45:10.639 --> 00:45:15.760
can pass along to Miss Storm.
It doesn't matter where she runs or where

594
00:45:15.800 --> 00:45:22.119
she hides. She said that she
will find her because she is all elite

595
00:45:22.239 --> 00:45:28.400
and we are in the age of
the Virtuosa and the fans chanted for New

596
00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:31.719
Jersey. And Mariah said, okay, well, Dianna, I'm not the

597
00:45:31.760 --> 00:45:38.199
messenger, so tell her yourself,
bitch, and Mariah smacked her in the

598
00:45:38.239 --> 00:45:43.760
face. So Deanna smacked her back
and then kicked her right in the face

599
00:45:43.760 --> 00:45:50.400
and knocked her out of the ring. As far as the signing is concerned,

600
00:45:51.920 --> 00:45:55.280
great pickup here for the women's division. This woman is a multiple time

601
00:45:55.360 --> 00:46:00.199
former Knockouts champion. She was in
WWE a number of years ago. WWE

602
00:46:00.320 --> 00:46:04.480
didn't care for her. Ww WE
didn't give a shit about her, and

603
00:46:04.639 --> 00:46:07.440
WWE got rid of her, and
so she had to go out and she

604
00:46:07.519 --> 00:46:10.280
had to build up her profile and
she had to make a name for herself,

605
00:46:10.840 --> 00:46:15.039
and that's exactly what she did.
And she went to Impact and she

606
00:46:15.159 --> 00:46:20.920
had very good matches, She had
great matches, She had great success,

607
00:46:21.519 --> 00:46:23.679
went around on the ends as well
and again really built up her name.

608
00:46:25.280 --> 00:46:30.239
She became a free agent as of
January first. There was some talk that

609
00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:35.159
WWE might be interested, and she
may well have had conversations with WWE,

610
00:46:36.119 --> 00:46:40.360
but evidently she wanted to go to
AW and Tony Khan was able to make

611
00:46:40.400 --> 00:46:46.280
the deal and so a great addition
to the women's division, even if it

612
00:46:46.400 --> 00:46:50.719
wasn't the person that some people may
have been hoping for and may have been

613
00:46:50.760 --> 00:46:55.880
expecting, because there were rumors for
days about Mercedes and Mercedes talks with WWE

614
00:46:55.920 --> 00:47:00.880
breaking down, and she's going to
come in likely to aid. She could

615
00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:04.159
debut as early as Dynamite this week. What a way for Tony kan to

616
00:47:04.280 --> 00:47:07.960
kick off the new year. They
have the Rock on raw, how is

617
00:47:07.000 --> 00:47:13.119
he going to counter it? Maybe
they'll debut Mercedes Manet on Dynamite. That

618
00:47:13.119 --> 00:47:16.159
didn't happen, which doesn't mean it
won't. It just didn't happen tonight.

619
00:47:16.960 --> 00:47:22.960
Or maybe he hasn't made the deal
yet. If you believe the reports that

620
00:47:22.079 --> 00:47:28.440
talks broke down with her in WWEIGHT, as I've mentioned to you before after

621
00:47:28.480 --> 00:47:31.559
the CM punk stuff in November,
take all of these reports with a grain

622
00:47:31.599 --> 00:47:37.800
of salt, because anything can happen. It's Royal Rumble season. She could

623
00:47:37.920 --> 00:47:43.320
just as easily show up in the
Women's Royal Rumble later this month. Until

624
00:47:43.320 --> 00:47:45.400
I see it with my own eyes, I will not fully believe it.

625
00:47:46.960 --> 00:47:51.000
So some people may have been disappointed
by that. But when I saw her

626
00:47:51.000 --> 00:47:52.599
come out, I said, you
know what, that's a hell of a

627
00:47:52.599 --> 00:47:58.639
pickup for the women's division. And
her first night in she mentions Tony Storm

628
00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:01.639
and says I'm coming. I'm coming
for that title. She may have to

629
00:48:01.639 --> 00:48:06.199
go through Mariah May first if she
wants to try to get to Tony Stork.

630
00:48:07.440 --> 00:48:08.760
Well, when you look at this
women's division, right, we talked

631
00:48:08.760 --> 00:48:14.960
before about the Tag Team division and
trying to light a fire in that division.

632
00:48:15.760 --> 00:48:20.760
The women's division has been maligned by
a lot of people, and it's

633
00:48:20.760 --> 00:48:23.840
not a matter of maligning the women
themselves. It's a matter of maligning the

634
00:48:23.920 --> 00:48:30.400
booking of the women's division and the
lack of really interesting stories that they're telling

635
00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:35.119
on television. Yes, you could
do Abadon challenging for the TBS title against

636
00:48:35.159 --> 00:48:42.000
Julia Hart, not exactly a compelling
story or the stuff that they've been doing

637
00:48:42.079 --> 00:48:45.079
for the last few months on television
with Julia Hart and with sky Blue.

638
00:48:45.800 --> 00:48:50.199
You know, at least there that's
kind of been a longer term story that

639
00:48:50.239 --> 00:48:53.840
they've been building. But really,
where are all the really interesting stories in

640
00:48:53.880 --> 00:48:58.440
the women's division? Right there?
Just hasn't been a lot of focus.

641
00:48:58.440 --> 00:49:00.599
There's been a lack of focus on
that division, and there's been a lack

642
00:49:00.800 --> 00:49:07.800
of television time when it comes to
Dynamite. So things have to change going

643
00:49:07.840 --> 00:49:09.920
into this new year now. As
far as the women's division is concerned.

644
00:49:10.000 --> 00:49:15.159
When you look at that roster right
I showed the graphic, she's all elite.

645
00:49:15.519 --> 00:49:19.480
They have Diana Parrazza, and look
at who else they have. You've

646
00:49:19.480 --> 00:49:23.000
got Dianna Parazzo. You've got timeless
Tony Storm. We just saw Mariah May

647
00:49:23.760 --> 00:49:30.960
wrestle her first match on television.
That's just match number one, but people

648
00:49:30.960 --> 00:49:32.719
will over time get to see what
Mariah May can do in the ring.

649
00:49:34.360 --> 00:49:37.519
You've got Chris Statlander, You've got
Willow Nightingale. You've got Hikarushida. You've

650
00:49:37.559 --> 00:49:43.480
got Julia Hart who's made a lot
of improvements. You've got sky Blue who's

651
00:49:43.480 --> 00:49:46.960
coming along very well. You've got
Thunder Rosa. Finally, Thunder Rosa was

652
00:49:47.000 --> 00:49:52.679
out of action for over a year. Finally we got thunder Rosa back.

653
00:49:52.760 --> 00:49:57.920
Now, Serena deeb is coming back
right We got that vignette on Saturday talking

654
00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:02.199
about her return going to be back
on TV. Suit, Jamie Hater will

655
00:50:02.199 --> 00:50:07.719
hopefully be back suit and if Tony
Kahan had his wits about him, we

656
00:50:07.760 --> 00:50:10.960
would have Athena on television very soon
as well, and not just toiling away

657
00:50:10.960 --> 00:50:16.159
on Honor Club. So now you
look at all of that and then maybe

658
00:50:16.239 --> 00:50:21.119
add Mercedes. If they do bring
Mercedes into the company, that's a hell

659
00:50:21.119 --> 00:50:25.599
of a women's division. AW could
take the crown before this year is over

660
00:50:25.760 --> 00:50:30.400
for the best women's division in wrestling, at least here in this country if

661
00:50:30.400 --> 00:50:35.760
they want to. It's all about
the focus and the booking of the women's

662
00:50:35.800 --> 00:50:38.559
division. That's not even all the
women, but those are the key names

663
00:50:38.599 --> 00:50:43.599
there. There's a lot you can
do with those names that I just mentioned,

664
00:50:45.199 --> 00:50:49.800
but it's all in how you put
those pieces together and how much time

665
00:50:49.880 --> 00:50:52.360
you devote to them. That's really
what it's going to boil down to.

666
00:50:54.000 --> 00:51:00.960
Is Tony Khan going to do that? I hope. So it was time

667
00:51:01.000 --> 00:51:07.599
for the TNT Champion State of the
Union with Christian Cage and the Patriarchy and

668
00:51:07.679 --> 00:51:13.400
Cage came down to the ring with
Killswitch, Nick Wayne and Mother Wayne.

669
00:51:13.599 --> 00:51:16.360
Tony Shavanni was in the ring.
He talked about Cage losing and then regaining

670
00:51:16.920 --> 00:51:22.840
his TNT title from Adam Copeland at
World's End. SHANEA. Wayne took the

671
00:51:22.920 --> 00:51:25.400
mic and said the fans needed to
get on their feet and show respect to

672
00:51:25.440 --> 00:51:31.719
the greatest TNT champion that ever lived. Their father, the Patriarch, Christian

673
00:51:31.800 --> 00:51:37.440
Cage. Cage said it's been two
hundred days since he won the TNT title.

674
00:51:37.480 --> 00:51:43.039
On the debut episode of Collision,
Shavanni went to correct him and Christian

675
00:51:43.079 --> 00:51:45.800
told him to shut up or He
threatened that Shanea will take him over her

676
00:51:45.880 --> 00:51:50.639
knee and discipline him. He might
like that, I don't know. Tony's

677
00:51:50.679 --> 00:51:55.320
a weird guy. He also made
reference to the all the New Jersey sweathogs

678
00:51:57.079 --> 00:52:00.360
in the crowd. Little hat tip
there to Rick Rude. Cage said that

679
00:52:00.400 --> 00:52:04.559
he had a few people to thank
for his victory at World's End, Mother

680
00:52:04.679 --> 00:52:10.079
Wayne for being the vision as a
mother's work is never done. Next up

681
00:52:10.119 --> 00:52:15.679
the apple of his eye, his
boy Nick Wayne, who selflessly put his

682
00:52:15.719 --> 00:52:20.559
body on the line despite Copeland trying
to end the career of an eighteen year

683
00:52:20.599 --> 00:52:28.480
old prodigy when he power bombed him
onto the flaming table and nearly completely missed.

684
00:52:30.719 --> 00:52:32.360
And lastly, Cage said he would
like to thank the person who made

685
00:52:32.360 --> 00:52:39.559
it all happen himself, and Killswitch
in the background looked annoyed, and the

686
00:52:39.719 --> 00:52:44.800
Lucasaurus chance rang out in the building, which pissed off Christian. Christian said

687
00:52:44.840 --> 00:52:49.159
he's two and zero against Copeland and
it's back back of the line for him.

688
00:52:49.559 --> 00:52:52.519
Cage said this was a warning to
Copeland and anybody else who wants a

689
00:52:52.519 --> 00:52:55.440
shot at the TNT title. This
was just the tip of the iceberg of

690
00:52:55.480 --> 00:52:59.920
what he is willing to do,
and he said he will be TNT TA

691
00:53:00.039 --> 00:53:04.000
champion until he is ready to hand
it off to Nick Wayne. There'll be

692
00:53:04.079 --> 00:53:07.880
the TNT Champion now and forever.
The fans are really getting behind kill Switch

693
00:53:08.639 --> 00:53:12.519
as far as wanting him to just
beat the fuck out of this guy,

694
00:53:12.960 --> 00:53:15.719
so it'll be a great moment when
he finally snaps. And I don't know

695
00:53:15.760 --> 00:53:22.480
what Christian is supposedly whispering in his
ear that gets him to be so subservient

696
00:53:22.480 --> 00:53:28.000
to him. Maybe we'll find out. But maybe he's threatening to bring back

697
00:53:28.199 --> 00:53:30.480
Marco Stunt. I don't know,
but whatever it is, eventually he will

698
00:53:30.480 --> 00:53:35.599
break free and it'll be this great, big moment and he'll be a babyface

699
00:53:35.639 --> 00:53:40.559
again. Now, Christian and the
promo said no more title shots for Copeland,

700
00:53:42.440 --> 00:53:45.360
which we know is bullshit. So
it's only a question of how do

701
00:53:45.400 --> 00:53:49.239
they circumvent that. What is going
to happen that will eventually get him to

702
00:53:49.280 --> 00:53:52.480
agree to give him a shot at
the championship. And I thought, like

703
00:53:52.559 --> 00:53:57.599
the other night, it's gonna have
to be a situation where Copeland finds some

704
00:53:57.719 --> 00:54:01.119
backup because he's out numbered. People
suggested, well, maybe that's the return

705
00:54:01.159 --> 00:54:07.239
of Jack Perry, right, Jack
Perry has history with Christian and the Dinosaur.

706
00:54:07.079 --> 00:54:10.880
Could that be how they work him
back into this as a babyface?

707
00:54:12.079 --> 00:54:14.519
I think that would be terrible.
I mean, he was starting to come

708
00:54:14.559 --> 00:54:17.639
into his own as a heel the
last time we saw him. He may

709
00:54:17.679 --> 00:54:21.400
have For all we know, he
may have a ton of heel heat,

710
00:54:21.559 --> 00:54:24.159
you know, given what happened.
When and if he comes back, I

711
00:54:24.159 --> 00:54:28.360
say if, because I mean fucking
me, he got suspended in August,

712
00:54:29.119 --> 00:54:32.519
it's January. He's still not back. He may not even come back.

713
00:54:32.559 --> 00:54:37.400
I don't I don't know what's going
on with it. So I don't know

714
00:54:37.400 --> 00:54:39.199
about that. But I don't even
know that it's a matter of that.

715
00:54:39.280 --> 00:54:45.320
It could just be as simple as
Copeland is going to try to manipulate things

716
00:54:45.360 --> 00:54:49.239
and try to get kill Switch to
turn on Christian, and when they have

717
00:54:49.320 --> 00:54:53.199
their eventual match, that'll be where
kill Switch finally says enough he doesn't help

718
00:54:53.280 --> 00:54:58.840
Christian, Christian loses the title and
that's where things start to fall apart for

719
00:54:59.599 --> 00:55:02.800
Christian. So the whole idea of
bringing Jack Perry back and having him be

720
00:55:05.360 --> 00:55:10.079
side by side with Copeland, he
could turn on Copeland and joined the patriarchy.

721
00:55:10.159 --> 00:55:15.639
But I mean, how many times
can Adam Copeland be beaten down by

722
00:55:15.639 --> 00:55:17.920
all these people until he finally finds
somebody willing to stick up for him and

723
00:55:17.960 --> 00:55:22.079
help him out. I don't know
if Jack Perry is going to be involved

724
00:55:22.119 --> 00:55:25.639
or not, but kill Switch turn
is coming. When it comes to the

725
00:55:25.639 --> 00:55:31.119
people will pop big for it.
Renee was backstage with Ruby Soho, Harley,

726
00:55:31.159 --> 00:55:36.599
Cameron, and Sorea, who said
Cameron is dedicated to her role in

727
00:55:36.639 --> 00:55:38.880
helping Ruby. Now, if you
missed it last week, I should mention

728
00:55:39.000 --> 00:55:45.199
this that on the show last week, there was a backstage segment and Soirea

729
00:55:45.280 --> 00:55:47.920
said she had an early birthday gift
for Ruby. Ruby's birthday is on January

730
00:55:49.000 --> 00:55:53.119
ninth. Her early birthday gift for
her was Harley Cameron. Harley Cameron is

731
00:55:53.159 --> 00:55:58.639
the blonde woman that you saw here
in this segment who was part of QT

732
00:55:58.840 --> 00:56:05.559
Marshall's qt TV segments they were doing
and she was singing. There was I

733
00:56:05.559 --> 00:56:07.920
don't know, there was some nonsense
they did with her where she did a

734
00:56:07.000 --> 00:56:10.000
music video. When she sang it
was when they were feuding with the acclaim.

735
00:56:12.039 --> 00:56:14.079
So she was part of the q
TV crew. That was her.

736
00:56:15.079 --> 00:56:17.599
Well, q TV is dead.
QT Marshall is gone and so they have

737
00:56:17.679 --> 00:56:22.199
no role for So this is what
they've come up with here. She is

738
00:56:22.199 --> 00:56:27.360
Soraya's birthday gift to Ruby. Soho
she's going to be her? I guess

739
00:56:27.360 --> 00:56:30.920
her, I don't know, her
servant, her helper, her new best

740
00:56:30.960 --> 00:56:34.800
friend. But at the end of
that segment last week, she pulled out

741
00:56:34.800 --> 00:56:38.559
a kitchen knife. I'm like,
what the fuck is this? So she's

742
00:56:38.599 --> 00:56:45.039
supposed to be nuts she's supposed to
be crazy. I guess that's her new

743
00:56:45.079 --> 00:56:51.719
gimmick. She's all whacked out.
So Siah said, the Cameron is dedicated

744
00:56:51.760 --> 00:56:54.199
to her role in helping Ruby,
as shown by Ruby's win on Rampage this

745
00:56:54.239 --> 00:57:00.519
past Friday, and Harley said that
she is willing to do anything, and

746
00:57:00.639 --> 00:57:06.800
Soireya said that she would be helpful. She said she would be helpful,

747
00:57:06.880 --> 00:57:13.519
not saying We'll see where this story
goes. I guess you gotta find something

748
00:57:13.559 --> 00:57:20.000
for her to do. We'll see
where it goes. This ride here was

749
00:57:20.039 --> 00:57:24.519
the best part of the entire show. We had Kenoski Ta Keshta one on

750
00:57:24.519 --> 00:57:31.760
one with Darby. Allen don Callis
said in uncommentary for this Darby sent him

751
00:57:31.760 --> 00:57:36.760
to ringside early, tried to hit
him with a suicide dive, and as

752
00:57:36.800 --> 00:57:43.000
he came soaring through the ropes,
Takeushta blasted him with a perfectly timed knee

753
00:57:43.039 --> 00:57:49.000
strike that just wrecked this guy,
and Darby looked like he was seeing stars.

754
00:57:49.440 --> 00:57:54.119
They timed that just perfectly man chanted. Holy shit, I agree.

755
00:57:54.760 --> 00:58:02.440
Darby crawled up the bottom of the
ramp Takeshta grabbed him from behind, and

756
00:58:02.559 --> 00:58:07.800
like a child, he started carrying
him up the ramp a certain distance,

757
00:58:07.840 --> 00:58:14.519
and then he stopped and he delivered
a double chaos theory. So he rolled

758
00:58:14.559 --> 00:58:19.239
backwards with him. He rolled back
and in doing so, Darby was taken

759
00:58:19.280 --> 00:58:22.599
over for a German souplex and smacked
the back of his head on the ramp,

760
00:58:22.280 --> 00:58:28.400
kept rolling, and then finally he
let him go. Darby goes flying

761
00:58:28.519 --> 00:58:31.360
and just crashes on the fucking ramp
right on the back of his head and

762
00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:36.519
neck. That took us into picture
and picture. I knew at that point

763
00:58:36.599 --> 00:58:38.920
it was going to be a tough
night at the office for Darby out But

764
00:58:38.960 --> 00:58:43.280
then again, every night for Darby
is a tough night at the office.

765
00:58:43.440 --> 00:58:47.639
One of these days, unfortunately,
Darby will not leave the office. That's

766
00:58:47.679 --> 00:58:52.599
my fear for him. But hey, if he wants to kill himself out

767
00:58:52.599 --> 00:58:57.519
there, who am I to say? No? Darby hit a wild suicide

768
00:58:57.559 --> 00:59:00.280
dive coming out of the break.
I just love how reckless it is.

769
00:59:00.320 --> 00:59:04.400
I mean, he he's putting all
of his trust in the opponent to just

770
00:59:04.519 --> 00:59:08.239
absorb the blow and at the same
time block him from flying into the front

771
00:59:08.320 --> 00:59:13.679
row. He just just flies out
there like a madman, and he bounced

772
00:59:13.719 --> 00:59:16.960
off of him and both men land
on the floor. Back inside, Takesha

773
00:59:17.079 --> 00:59:22.440
hit a great inverted pile driver for
an earfall. We got another. This

774
00:59:22.599 --> 00:59:25.880
is awesome chant. Takeshta went for
a running knee strike. Darby ducked out

775
00:59:25.880 --> 00:59:30.159
to the floor. Takeshta followed and
he went for the running knee but Alan

776
00:59:30.280 --> 00:59:35.159
moved out of the way and Takeshta
went knee first. His knee struck the

777
00:59:35.199 --> 00:59:38.239
top of the barricade and he went
tumbling over to the floor on the other

778
00:59:38.320 --> 00:59:43.360
side, and he came up clutching
his knee. He was right by don

779
00:59:43.480 --> 00:59:46.360
kallis callous, you know. Put
the headset down. He's checking on Takeshka.

780
00:59:47.719 --> 00:59:52.360
So Takesha gets to his feet.
Darby is on the top rope and

781
00:59:52.400 --> 00:59:58.519
he comes flying off with a coffin
splash, connects with Takesha. They both

782
00:59:58.559 --> 01:00:04.639
go crashing to the ground. Takesha
then gets back in the ring before the

783
01:00:04.679 --> 01:00:08.840
referees count of nine, just barely
beats the count. Immediately as he gets

784
01:00:08.840 --> 01:00:13.000
back in the ring, he gets
taken down by a code read by Darby

785
01:00:13.599 --> 01:00:15.800
for a near fall. Alan went
for a coffin drop. Takeshta. They'll

786
01:00:15.800 --> 01:00:19.280
put his knees up, and I
like that. He sold the knee,

787
01:00:20.079 --> 01:00:22.400
the bad knee that he hurt on
the top of the barricade. He put

788
01:00:22.440 --> 01:00:27.079
his knees up, but as soon
as Darby hit his knees he started clutching

789
01:00:27.119 --> 01:00:30.239
the knee and selling it. Takeshta
grabbed Darby from behind. He suit plexed

790
01:00:30.280 --> 01:00:34.440
him twice. He was about to
end the match. He went for a

791
01:00:34.519 --> 01:00:37.599
vertical suit plex Darby. They'll caught
him with an inside cradle for two.

792
01:00:37.559 --> 01:00:43.480
Darby followed with a crucifix, got
another two and Takeshta blasted him with a

793
01:00:43.559 --> 01:00:46.400
lariat. After that, Callous was
signaling to Takeshta for the kill. Let's

794
01:00:46.480 --> 01:00:52.599
go, let's end this, and
Takesha hit Darby with a halluva kick in

795
01:00:52.639 --> 01:00:55.239
the corner, placed him on the
top rope in a seated position. He

796
01:00:55.320 --> 01:01:00.960
was facing the crowd. He climbed
up behind him and took Keshta took this

797
01:01:00.119 --> 01:01:06.840
fucker over with a German suplex.
He German soup plexed dim off the top

798
01:01:06.960 --> 01:01:10.639
row and it fell for a moment
there like time just sort of stood still

799
01:01:13.000 --> 01:01:19.119
as Darby went soaring through the air. I mean he went a long ways

800
01:01:19.239 --> 01:01:23.960
down before he crashed and burned.
On that match, Darby was slow and

801
01:01:24.000 --> 01:01:29.239
getting up to his knees. He
motioned he wanted more, and so Takeshta

802
01:01:29.239 --> 01:01:32.199
blasted him with the running knee strike
and he pinned him. This is the

803
01:01:32.199 --> 01:01:37.000
best thing on the entire show,
the best match certainly on the entire show.

804
01:01:37.000 --> 01:01:40.480
And again, they didn't even bother
to announce this until late in the

805
01:01:40.480 --> 01:01:45.840
afternoon. I just happened to come
across. I had already put the preview

806
01:01:45.880 --> 01:01:49.679
together for the show right before I
put the page up here on YouTube.

807
01:01:49.679 --> 01:01:53.440
It wasn't go check the lineup.
I don't even have this match listed because

808
01:01:53.440 --> 01:01:59.239
it wasn't even supposed to happen.
They threw it out there late in the

809
01:01:59.280 --> 01:02:02.599
day. I'm glad they did.
I enjoyed the hell out of this man.

810
01:02:02.639 --> 01:02:07.199
This. You could put these two
in the ring together every week.

811
01:02:07.280 --> 01:02:12.039
It might not be good for Darby's
health, but I'll be watching because these

812
01:02:12.039 --> 01:02:15.000
two were fucking fantastic together. And
what I also love about it, it

813
01:02:15.039 --> 01:02:21.039
was a statement win for Takeshta.
Darby is like he's the perfect opponent for

814
01:02:21.079 --> 01:02:24.559
someone like him because he can throw
one. The only thing I'm surprised we

815
01:02:24.679 --> 01:02:29.880
did not get and I think we
did. We get it. We might

816
01:02:29.920 --> 01:02:34.800
have gotten it on Saturday, but
like an avalanche blue thunderbomb, I think

817
01:02:34.840 --> 01:02:37.159
we did get it at the pay
per view. That's the only thing that

818
01:02:37.239 --> 01:02:42.719
was missing from this match. Darby
will fly around and bump around like a

819
01:02:42.760 --> 01:02:45.480
madman, and he'll make the other
guy look like a million bucks. And

820
01:02:45.519 --> 01:02:51.480
Takesha is fantastic because he's great at
everything he does. Everything he does looks

821
01:02:51.480 --> 01:02:53.639
great as smooth. He can do
power moves. But he could take a

822
01:02:53.639 --> 01:02:57.320
guy like Darby and just throw him
around like he's nothing. It makes him

823
01:02:57.360 --> 01:03:01.519
look like a beast, makes him
look like a killer. That's what Takesha

824
01:03:01.559 --> 01:03:07.440
has been missing for the last four
months. Two wins over Kenny Omega,

825
01:03:07.440 --> 01:03:10.119
and again they've done nothing with him
in these four months. Now. Kenny

826
01:03:10.199 --> 01:03:14.920
is hurt, and I was a
little bit worried that they're just gonna wait

827
01:03:14.960 --> 01:03:17.760
for Kenny to get better. I'm
glad they put this out there tonight,

828
01:03:19.119 --> 01:03:22.559
and my hope for Tony Kahan is
that we get more of this. Let's

829
01:03:22.559 --> 01:03:28.440
get more of Takeshta in singles matches
here on Dynamite than we have had over

830
01:03:28.480 --> 01:03:31.719
the past four months, which has
been virtually none. Let's have more of

831
01:03:31.760 --> 01:03:35.119
this. This is more of what
I want to see on this show.

832
01:03:35.840 --> 01:03:40.719
This is a guy who should be
featured more often. Again, I've pitched

833
01:03:40.760 --> 01:03:45.559
the idea before about him going after
the international title, but can't do that

834
01:03:46.440 --> 01:03:51.519
if the story is that Roddy is
gonna go after the championship and bring that

835
01:03:51.639 --> 01:03:57.599
title into the Undisputed Kingdom, but
surely he can find something for this man

836
01:03:57.679 --> 01:04:00.480
to be doing, at least until
Omega comes back, and then they can

837
01:04:00.480 --> 01:04:02.159
pick up with whatever story it is
that they wanted to do with the two

838
01:04:02.159 --> 01:04:09.039
of them now. After the match
in the back, Renee caught up with

839
01:04:09.119 --> 01:04:13.840
the Kallus family and Callus said that
they would be back to where it all

840
01:04:13.840 --> 01:04:17.000
started next week in Daly's place in
Jacksonville. He pointed out that Sting is

841
01:04:17.079 --> 01:04:23.159
undefeated in AAW. Sting is twenty
five and oh, he's got his own

842
01:04:23.199 --> 01:04:27.079
little Undertaker streak going on here in
AAW. He couldn't get his match with

843
01:04:27.119 --> 01:04:30.840
the Undertaker, so he's gonna copy
his streak. He's twenty five and oh,

844
01:04:30.639 --> 01:04:35.440
and he says he is challenging Sting
and Darby to face the team of

845
01:04:35.519 --> 01:04:43.719
Takeshta and Powerhouse Hobbs next week in
Daly's place, and they will be responsible

846
01:04:43.760 --> 01:04:50.039
for making Sting twenty five and one, which is bullshit because no way Sting

847
01:04:50.079 --> 01:04:55.519
has taken a loss two months out
from his retirement match when he's undefeated.

848
01:04:57.119 --> 01:05:00.760
If and it's a big if,
if Sting was going to lose, and

849
01:05:00.800 --> 01:05:04.800
I think that Tony Khan wants him
to retire undefeated, I maintain that Sting

850
01:05:05.000 --> 01:05:08.960
is going to wrestle for the tag
team titles of Revolution, and if he

851
01:05:09.000 --> 01:05:13.920
does, he's gonna win them him
and Darby. I don't think Tony Khan

852
01:05:14.000 --> 01:05:16.039
wants to beat him. I think
Tony Khan has this great reverence for Sting.

853
01:05:17.280 --> 01:05:20.719
The one thing I will say,
and look, could he have rained

854
01:05:20.719 --> 01:05:24.400
in Sting a little bit on some
of the stunts that he did. Sure?

855
01:05:24.679 --> 01:05:27.760
Absolutely. But the one thing you
can't say is that Tony Khan has

856
01:05:27.800 --> 01:05:32.360
not taken care of Sting booking wise. Since he brought him into AW it's

857
01:05:32.360 --> 01:05:35.920
been all tag team matches. Sting
may have gone to him and said,

858
01:05:35.960 --> 01:05:41.039
look, I can't do singles.
I don't know, but he has protected

859
01:05:41.039 --> 01:05:44.440
this man as far as the booking
is concerned. He has made him out

860
01:05:44.480 --> 01:05:47.039
to be. Look, he's treated
him like the legend that he is.

861
01:05:47.880 --> 01:05:53.039
There was a period of time in
WWE where they would have a legend and

862
01:05:53.079 --> 01:05:57.039
they would do. What they would
use those legends for was to just emasculate

863
01:05:57.079 --> 01:06:02.679
them on television. And Vince McMahon's
mind, he was taking these younger heels

864
01:06:03.440 --> 01:06:06.320
and trying to use the old guys. He was trying to use the legends

865
01:06:06.320 --> 01:06:10.239
to try to get them over and
get heat on them. But how many

866
01:06:10.280 --> 01:06:15.079
times did we see legends go out
there and get made fun of and mocked

867
01:06:15.679 --> 01:06:21.360
on television. It just it was
a different way of thinking when it came

868
01:06:21.400 --> 01:06:25.559
to how to book people like that. Tony Conwoods Sting has treated him with

869
01:06:25.639 --> 01:06:30.199
respect through and through. And if
I were betting men, I would say

870
01:06:30.199 --> 01:06:33.639
that he's probably gonna want him to
go out twenty eight, no or thirty

871
01:06:33.639 --> 01:06:38.679
and oh maybe he'll be thirty and
oh when he wraps up a revolution.

872
01:06:38.840 --> 01:06:43.760
I don't know, but I would
be stunned if he and Darby took a

873
01:06:43.800 --> 01:06:47.320
loss on TV next week on TV, no less on TV, not even

874
01:06:47.320 --> 01:06:49.800
on pay per view. He's gonna
get beat, I don't think so.

875
01:06:53.400 --> 01:06:58.159
We had Eddie Kingston, who was
out to the ring with his three titles,

876
01:06:58.159 --> 01:07:00.639
got three belts. Now, I'm
sure that's really fun for Eddie when

877
01:07:00.639 --> 01:07:03.400
he has to go through the airport. He took a seat at ringside for

878
01:07:03.400 --> 01:07:08.440
the next match, which was a
four way to crown the first challenger with

879
01:07:08.559 --> 01:07:15.239
a Continental Championship between l e.
Hodel, Vikingo, Brian Cage, Brian

880
01:07:15.320 --> 01:07:23.199
Keith, and Trent Peretta. Kingston
told Tony Kahan that he wanted a title

881
01:07:23.239 --> 01:07:26.880
defense on collision, which is why
we got this match tonight. He goes,

882
01:07:26.920 --> 01:07:30.440
I want to defend my title on
collision. Get me a challenger,

883
01:07:30.760 --> 01:07:33.880
and so we ended up with this
match. Now I know that Vikingo is

884
01:07:33.920 --> 01:07:38.920
the Triple A Mega Champion, Okay, he is a champion in Triple A.

885
01:07:40.440 --> 01:07:44.039
But we just went through. How
many weeks was the Continental Classic?

886
01:07:45.280 --> 01:07:47.679
It was six weeks maybe not even
it was probably four weeks, four,

887
01:07:47.760 --> 01:07:55.320
four or five weeks of the Continental
Classic, This grueling tournament on television,

888
01:07:55.679 --> 01:07:59.360
These great matches that we got.
It was a tournament that was primarily not

889
01:07:59.440 --> 01:08:01.599
totally, but primarily it was filled
with a lot of big names in that

890
01:08:01.639 --> 01:08:05.480
tournament. We want to throw Kingston
in there, I don't know, but

891
01:08:05.559 --> 01:08:09.760
you know, John Moxley was in
there. Brian Danielson. Yeah, we

892
01:08:09.800 --> 01:08:13.960
had up and down great matches in
that tournament. Swerve was in there,

893
01:08:14.599 --> 01:08:19.680
Jay White was in their great stuff, right. And so now Eddie Kingston

894
01:08:19.800 --> 01:08:25.000
is the champion after everything that he
went through and everybody he had to beat

895
01:08:25.560 --> 01:08:29.439
right up until the end, Brian
Danielson and then John Moxley, and finally

896
01:08:29.479 --> 01:08:33.039
he's the Triple Crown Champion. And
I'm reminded of Tony Kah when he first

897
01:08:33.279 --> 01:08:39.319
talked about this, which might have
been the full Gear Scrub. He was

898
01:08:39.359 --> 01:08:42.439
talking about this new continental title,
and this is going to be one of

899
01:08:42.520 --> 01:08:45.000
the most prestigious championships in all of
A and W It's gonna be one of

900
01:08:45.039 --> 01:08:48.720
the most prestigious titles in all of
wrestling. This is going to be a

901
01:08:48.720 --> 01:08:55.199
big deal. And now Eddie Kingston
is going to defend his title against the

902
01:08:55.319 --> 01:09:02.039
Kingo, Brian Keith, Brian Cage
or Trent Burretta. Let's put the Kingo

903
01:09:02.119 --> 01:09:10.239
on the side, Brian Cage,
Brian Keith or Trent Burretta. And this

904
01:09:10.359 --> 01:09:14.000
is supposed to be taken as one
of the most prestigious championships in all of

905
01:09:14.039 --> 01:09:20.159
wrestling, Are you kidding me?
So they want him to defend the title

906
01:09:20.199 --> 01:09:24.279
on TV, So what do you
do? This is this is what he

907
01:09:24.319 --> 01:09:28.319
came up with because he wants Eddie
Kingston to defend the belt. This is

908
01:09:28.359 --> 01:09:30.319
this is what he comes up with. And that's fine, Trent. Look,

909
01:09:30.319 --> 01:09:34.039
Trent Barretta, it's a great wrestler. No one saying he can't work.

910
01:09:35.439 --> 01:09:39.479
They have a roster full of great
wrestlers. That does not make them

911
01:09:39.479 --> 01:09:44.960
all stars. And I'm sorry,
you're trying to build this championship up as

912
01:09:44.960 --> 01:09:48.319
a big deal and on day one, all you're doing is letting people know,

913
01:09:48.479 --> 01:09:55.439
Oh okay, I see it's only
slotted at this level. That was

914
01:09:55.479 --> 01:09:58.079
my takeaway from this. I'm like, this is this is what we're doing

915
01:09:58.079 --> 01:10:04.279
here. The king Goo cleared Cage
from the ring with a kick, hit

916
01:10:04.359 --> 01:10:09.560
him with a suicide dive right in
front of the announced desk, and Kingston

917
01:10:09.600 --> 01:10:14.000
made a comedy goes there goes your
coke zero and Taz said no, not

918
01:10:14.119 --> 01:10:19.399
this time. So the match,
unlike Taz's drink spilled outside. Barretta pointed

919
01:10:19.479 --> 01:10:26.239
over at Dan Housen, who was
in the front row behind the barricade.

920
01:10:26.439 --> 01:10:29.800
Late in the match, Cage power
bomb. Boretta followed up with a sitout

921
01:10:29.800 --> 01:10:33.319
power bomb for an earfall. Dan
Housen hopped the barricade. He should have

922
01:10:33.319 --> 01:10:36.800
been tackled right then and there.
He hopped the barricade. He gets in

923
01:10:36.800 --> 01:10:45.720
the ring and Cage releases Trent and
Dan Housen puts a curse on Brian Cage.

924
01:10:48.079 --> 01:10:50.960
Cage gets kicked by two of the
other men in the match and he

925
01:10:51.039 --> 01:10:58.399
ends up outside the ring at ringside. The King Goo Moon salts onto Cage

926
01:10:58.439 --> 01:11:01.359
on the floor. Brian Keith HiT's
Trent with the Saiuto suplex and a battering

927
01:11:01.439 --> 01:11:05.279
ram headbutt. Trent, though,
fights right back, hits a Tiger Driver

928
01:11:05.359 --> 01:11:10.600
and he scores the pin and the
crowd pretty much died when he won the

929
01:11:10.640 --> 01:11:17.000
match. And I'll say it again, Trent burretta good wrestler, not somebody

930
01:11:17.039 --> 01:11:24.000
that the fans are going to look
to as this great, credible challenger for

931
01:11:24.199 --> 01:11:30.159
the Triple Crown three Championships. You
have two titles, you have brand new

932
01:11:30.199 --> 01:11:34.359
one. You basically have merged them
into one, and it's gonna be Trent

933
01:11:34.399 --> 01:11:39.880
barretta against Eddie Kingson on TV.
That's fine. For a TV match,

934
01:11:40.319 --> 01:11:43.560
that's fine. I would think that
Kingston and Trent will go out there and

935
01:11:43.600 --> 01:11:46.199
they'll probably have a pretty good match
on Collision, And if that's what you

936
01:11:46.239 --> 01:11:49.479
want the Triple Crown to be,
then fine. I'm just wondering what the

937
01:11:49.479 --> 01:11:54.039
fucking point of the whole thing was. Now, Tony Kann is talking about

938
01:11:54.039 --> 01:11:58.439
adding more belts. I believe he
was talking about adding a set of women's

939
01:11:58.439 --> 01:12:03.800
tag team titles. Now, as
robust as that women's roster is starting to

940
01:12:03.840 --> 01:12:08.199
shape up and be, I still
don't think we're at the point where we

941
01:12:08.239 --> 01:12:12.520
need women's tag team titles on this
show. But I also don't believe we

942
01:12:12.560 --> 01:12:15.920
need more titles on this show.
But he just keeps adding titles. Everybody,

943
01:12:15.960 --> 01:12:21.359
you'll have a belt soon. But
again, I'm using his own words.

944
01:12:23.199 --> 01:12:26.880
He specifically used the word prestigious,
and I'm just wondering, what exactly

945
01:12:26.960 --> 01:12:30.520
is it that is going to make
the Triple Crown prestigious and different than all

946
01:12:30.560 --> 01:12:34.680
of the other titles that they currently
have. That's what I'd like to know.

947
01:12:34.720 --> 01:12:38.920
And I said, the onus is
on Tony Kahan. By the time

948
01:12:38.960 --> 01:12:43.279
we get to the next Continental Classic. We're gonna look back and we're gonna

949
01:12:43.279 --> 01:12:48.039
see what has he done to make
the Triple Crown truly something special that when

950
01:12:48.039 --> 01:12:51.640
it gets defended, you say,
oh, I got to see this,

951
01:12:54.079 --> 01:12:59.760
or it just feels like a championship
that is sought after and valued in some

952
01:12:59.840 --> 01:13:02.359
way. Right, maybe he'll go
around the Horn, he'll go to Japan,

953
01:13:02.439 --> 01:13:05.239
and he'll go to different places and
start defending it, and that's great,

954
01:13:05.560 --> 01:13:09.800
But I go back to my original
point. We already had something like

955
01:13:09.840 --> 01:13:13.279
that. It's called the International title. Do you remember when they first introduced

956
01:13:13.279 --> 01:13:15.520
that belt. It was the All
Atlantic title. They were doing something when

957
01:13:15.600 --> 01:13:20.560
Pack had the belt where he was
going around to different independent promotions and promotions

958
01:13:20.600 --> 01:13:26.000
overseas and defending it, and they
recorded the matches and they would air them

959
01:13:26.239 --> 01:13:28.800
or air highlights of them anyway on
TV, or they would put them on

960
01:13:28.840 --> 01:13:32.319
their YouTube channel. That was unique
because it truly felt like a global title,

961
01:13:32.359 --> 01:13:38.359
like an international title, or back
then it was still the All Atlantic

962
01:13:38.399 --> 01:13:41.880
title, but it felt unique.
It felt like, Okay, I get

963
01:13:41.920 --> 01:13:44.720
it, I know what this belt
is all about. Then it just became

964
01:13:44.760 --> 01:13:47.720
another belt on the show. They
completely abandoned that and it just became another

965
01:13:47.760 --> 01:13:53.520
belt on the show. So what
exactly is this continental title going to be?

966
01:13:53.600 --> 01:13:57.800
We're gonna find out, but I
don't know so far. It's only

967
01:13:57.800 --> 01:14:04.079
been one week. First challenger trend
okay doesn't do much for me. We'll

968
01:14:04.079 --> 01:14:10.359
see. Backstage, Renee was about
to interview Matt Minard when an angry hangman

969
01:14:10.399 --> 01:14:15.279
Adam Page showed up in his leather
jacket and he vented about Samoa Joe having

970
01:14:15.279 --> 01:14:18.239
a bunch of goons put him through
a car windshield. He said if he

971
01:14:18.279 --> 01:14:23.840
couldn't find Joe, he would find
Adam Cole and beat his ass. And

972
01:14:23.920 --> 01:14:27.079
he dared somebody to give him a
reason, and then he stormed off.

973
01:14:27.520 --> 01:14:30.279
And that led into our main event
of the evening, which was Swerve Strickland

974
01:14:30.319 --> 01:14:36.760
one on one against Daniel Garcia.
I'm off for Swerve in the main event.

975
01:14:39.439 --> 01:14:42.279
I'd like to see more of that. I think that's fine way to

976
01:14:42.359 --> 01:14:46.239
kick off twenty twenty four. We
had a knee that sent Swerve to the

977
01:14:46.239 --> 01:14:49.680
floor, Garcia sent him crashing into
the barricade, and then we got the

978
01:14:49.680 --> 01:14:53.439
predictable dance off. You knew it
was coming as soon as they an't aounked

979
01:14:53.439 --> 01:14:56.079
this match. You knew that we
were going to get a dance off at

980
01:14:56.079 --> 01:15:00.239
some point between Prince Nana and Daniel
Garcia, and they came face to face

981
01:15:00.279 --> 01:15:04.960
outside the ring before they even touched. I guess they didn't even have to

982
01:15:04.960 --> 01:15:09.760
touch. Before they even started dancing. Before we had a single dance move,

983
01:15:10.359 --> 01:15:14.800
the people in the crowd were chanting, holy shit, it's over like

984
01:15:14.800 --> 01:15:17.520
the fucking Wyatt's in the shield that
the elimination chamber. Before they even touched.

985
01:15:17.800 --> 01:15:23.600
He had the entire building chanting holy
shit and this is awesome. So

986
01:15:23.680 --> 01:15:28.920
then they started a dance battle.
Strickland tried to put a stop to it.

987
01:15:29.000 --> 01:15:32.720
He took Garcia to the apron Swerve
then took the referee to distract him,

988
01:15:32.920 --> 01:15:38.640
and Nana distracted Garcia long enough forort
Swerve to hit a pump kick and

989
01:15:38.680 --> 01:15:41.600
a death valley driver on the edge
of the ring that took us into the

990
01:15:41.600 --> 01:15:46.319
final commercial. Swerve mocked the Garcia
dance and only woke up Garcia, though

991
01:15:46.319 --> 01:15:50.600
he started hulking up with punches.
We got a running corner knee strike and

992
01:15:50.640 --> 01:15:58.640
a shotgun drop kick that led to
a Saido suplex for two. That's right.

993
01:15:58.680 --> 01:16:00.079
The Return of nine ven Garcia.
Yeah, I forgot about all the

994
01:16:00.119 --> 01:16:06.159
main events that he's had. Oh, there it is. I'm trying.

995
01:16:06.199 --> 01:16:10.039
I'm trying. I'm trying to do
the swerve dance there with with Nana.

996
01:16:10.439 --> 01:16:14.640
He's showing me. I just got
to practice some more, you know.

997
01:16:14.680 --> 01:16:16.039
If I practice some more, I
mean I have no rhythm though, that's

998
01:16:16.079 --> 01:16:21.560
the thing, at least not as
far as dancing. Maybe in other ways,

999
01:16:21.560 --> 01:16:26.479
but anyway, So Asaiuto sup plexper
two, Strickland responded with a lead

1000
01:16:26.600 --> 01:16:31.319
trap backbreaker and then hit a spinning
sit out reverse DDT for a near fall

1001
01:16:32.319 --> 01:16:35.960
swerve got in the face of Matt
Minard at the announced desk. Didn't go

1002
01:16:36.039 --> 01:16:41.520
too well for Matt Minard on Saturday
when Brody Lee or Brody King excuse me,

1003
01:16:41.560 --> 01:16:45.399
Brody King got up in his face. Remember he called him a bitch.

1004
01:16:45.760 --> 01:16:50.039
You ain't gonna do shit, and
Matt Minard was like, you're right,

1005
01:16:50.520 --> 01:16:54.840
and he sat back down. He
didn't do shit, so that didn't

1006
01:16:54.840 --> 01:16:59.880
go too well for him. Garcia, though, swarmed Strickland. He cleared

1007
01:17:00.119 --> 01:17:06.159
off the table and he was trying
for a dragon tamer a sharpshooter on top

1008
01:17:06.199 --> 01:17:13.000
of the announced desk and he goes
to turn Swerve over and he slips.

1009
01:17:13.680 --> 01:17:16.079
He slips off the edge of the
desk and both men fall to the floor.

1010
01:17:17.279 --> 01:17:21.880
An unfortunate botch, but they picked
themselves up and they moved on.

1011
01:17:23.279 --> 01:17:26.520
What are you gonna do? Maybe
maybe the drink did spill. Maybe they

1012
01:17:26.560 --> 01:17:30.439
slipped on Tazza's drink. I don't
know, but we move on. They

1013
01:17:30.560 --> 01:17:33.640
go back to the ring. Garcia
hit a superplex. Swerve held on though,

1014
01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:36.039
and he hit a sup plex.
We got a double down here.

1015
01:17:38.079 --> 01:17:43.119
Garcia escaped a waste lock with a
violent need of the face. Swerve answered

1016
01:17:43.119 --> 01:17:47.800
that with a rolling flat liner and
a house call kick for a close two

1017
01:17:47.840 --> 01:17:53.520
count. Swerve connected on the swerve
stump and Garcia kicked out, which was

1018
01:17:53.600 --> 01:17:56.760
huge for him. I was not
expecting him, of all people, to

1019
01:17:56.880 --> 01:18:00.000
kick out of the Swerve stump,
but he did and that got a big

1020
01:18:00.119 --> 01:18:05.800
reaction from the crowd. Strickland was
stunned and Garcia got a desperation roll up

1021
01:18:05.800 --> 01:18:09.840
for two. Strickland, though,
got up, he hit another house call

1022
01:18:09.960 --> 01:18:15.800
and finally the JML driver puts away
Daniel Garcia Swerve. Strickland picks up the

1023
01:18:15.800 --> 01:18:19.079
wind. This is coming off of
his win over Dustin Rhodes on Saturday,

1024
01:18:19.119 --> 01:18:25.079
who was a substitute for Keith Lee. After the match was over, Swerve

1025
01:18:25.119 --> 01:18:30.199
went to go shake Garcia's hand and
Prince Nana snuck up from behind Garcia and

1026
01:18:30.239 --> 01:18:33.560
he hit him with a low blow. Matt Minard hit the ring to try

1027
01:18:33.600 --> 01:18:39.000
to stick up for his boy,
he got the same fate. Prince Nana

1028
01:18:39.039 --> 01:18:43.439
was about to say that Swerve was
going to be the next aw World Champion

1029
01:18:43.479 --> 01:18:48.600
when they were interrupted by Hangman Pages
music and the Millennial Cowboy makes his way

1030
01:18:48.600 --> 01:18:53.199
down to the ring. We got
a face off with him in Swerve.

1031
01:18:53.359 --> 01:19:00.399
A brawl ensued, We had the
ringing of the bell, the mannic ringing

1032
01:19:00.439 --> 01:19:02.920
of the bell. Security is in
to try to break these two men up,

1033
01:19:03.960 --> 01:19:08.279
and they're not having a lot of
luck doing it, and so chaos

1034
01:19:08.359 --> 01:19:10.800
is what we are left with here
as the show goes off the air.

1035
01:19:11.600 --> 01:19:15.960
I thought it was a very good
main event, and again they gave Garcia

1036
01:19:15.760 --> 01:19:19.079
the kickout on the Swerve stomp,
which kind of surprised me. But you

1037
01:19:19.159 --> 01:19:25.039
can sense that the fans want to
get behind this guy, even though he

1038
01:19:25.119 --> 01:19:28.359
only won one match in the entire
tournament. That they just wrapped up.

1039
01:19:28.880 --> 01:19:31.319
They're telling this underdog story with him. They have Matt Monard out there rooting

1040
01:19:31.359 --> 01:19:34.840
him on. Every single time he's
out there. It looked like he was

1041
01:19:34.880 --> 01:19:41.119
trying to impress Brian Danielson. Maybe
he'll end up in the Blackpool Combat Clubs

1042
01:19:41.159 --> 01:19:44.479
soon enough. Right, he got
the win for his team in the match

1043
01:19:44.520 --> 01:19:48.079
and the eight man tag on Saturday, so the crowd is there, you

1044
01:19:48.119 --> 01:19:50.760
know, they want to get behind
him, they want to cheer him.

1045
01:19:51.600 --> 01:19:57.119
Swerve, though, feels like a
guy who's clearly on the rise. It's

1046
01:19:57.159 --> 01:20:00.119
only a matter of time, it's
only a matter of when. Wow,

1047
01:20:00.279 --> 01:20:02.640
it looks like all of a sudden, we're back to him and Hangman.

1048
01:20:03.680 --> 01:20:09.079
Now. I love their match of
Wrestle dream. The Texas Death Match at

1049
01:20:09.079 --> 01:20:13.880
Full Gear was the most violent match
I've ever seen, and in its own

1050
01:20:13.920 --> 01:20:15.079
way, it was great. I
mean, I could see where it would

1051
01:20:15.079 --> 01:20:19.399
be a turnoff for some people.
But how do you top that if you're

1052
01:20:19.399 --> 01:20:23.439
gonna run it back for a third
time? Swerve is up two to oh

1053
01:20:24.039 --> 01:20:26.560
on Hangman. First of all,
it's not like that we need a rubber

1054
01:20:26.600 --> 01:20:30.000
match between them. How are you
even going to top what they did in

1055
01:20:30.039 --> 01:20:33.880
November? But then I am reminded
of the fact that when Hangman showed up

1056
01:20:33.920 --> 01:20:36.880
on the show, the first person
he was asking for was Samoa Joe.

1057
01:20:36.880 --> 01:20:40.560
He was gonna kick Samoa Joe's ass, and if I can't kick his ass,

1058
01:20:40.560 --> 01:20:44.439
I'm gonna kick Adam Coles ass.
He wants a piece of Samoa Joe.

1059
01:20:45.520 --> 01:20:50.600
And in My World's End review we
were talking about potential first challengers for

1060
01:20:50.720 --> 01:20:54.760
Joe, I said, well,
you can go with Hangman. Doesn't really

1061
01:20:54.760 --> 01:20:58.119
make a lot of sense, though, because he just got beat twice by

1062
01:20:58.159 --> 01:21:01.039
Swerves. Swerve would have a little
something to say about that, right,

1063
01:21:01.119 --> 01:21:05.479
wouldn't he. What makes more sense, though, is if we end up

1064
01:21:05.479 --> 01:21:10.399
in a triple threat scenario and you
have a co main event at Revolution in

1065
01:21:10.479 --> 01:21:15.199
March of Samoa Joe defending the aw
World title against Hangman, Page and Swerve

1066
01:21:15.239 --> 01:21:18.680
Strickland. Now you're not just going
back to the same match for a third

1067
01:21:18.680 --> 01:21:23.840
time, which you really don't need
to be doing. You're injecting Joe into

1068
01:21:23.880 --> 01:21:27.239
it in the championship, which is
something Swerve keeps reminding us of. I'm

1069
01:21:27.239 --> 01:21:29.920
gonna be a champion. I'm gonna
be the first black champion. I'm gonna

1070
01:21:29.920 --> 01:21:32.479
win the title a Samoa Joe.
Don't forget I'm looking at you, Samoa

1071
01:21:32.600 --> 01:21:35.840
Joe. Right. They put that
in there in his promo for a reason.

1072
01:21:36.439 --> 01:21:41.239
I think we're getting the three way
and it may not main event the

1073
01:21:41.279 --> 01:21:44.880
show. It may be Sting going
on last, but whether it closes the

1074
01:21:44.880 --> 01:21:46.720
show or not, that's gonna be
one of your main events. I believe

1075
01:21:46.760 --> 01:21:51.520
it Revolution on March third. If
not, it should be because think about

1076
01:21:51.560 --> 01:21:56.159
it. If you're gonna do Hangman
and Swerve, who are you going to

1077
01:21:56.199 --> 01:22:00.640
put Samoa Joe in the ring with? Who else would Samoa Joe's first challenger

1078
01:22:00.720 --> 01:22:06.439
be if not one of those two
men, There really is no obvious choice

1079
01:22:06.840 --> 01:22:13.720
for that spot. I think a
three way is what makes the most sense,

1080
01:22:14.600 --> 01:22:16.760
and I wouldn't even necessarily do a
title change. Again, I'm okay

1081
01:22:16.840 --> 01:22:19.159
if they want to give Joe some
time with the belt, it would actually

1082
01:22:19.159 --> 01:22:23.239
be kind of a shame to take
the belt off him that quickly. Swerve

1083
01:22:23.319 --> 01:22:27.079
is going to get there. It
doesn't have to happen at Revolution. Yeah.

1084
01:22:27.119 --> 01:22:30.159
Before I was like it should be
Revolution, and that was before Joe

1085
01:22:30.159 --> 01:22:33.279
won the belt. I'm okay if
they want to push it off until double

1086
01:22:33.359 --> 01:22:39.239
or nothing. By then I think
you're getting into territory where it's like,

1087
01:22:39.279 --> 01:22:42.239
Okay, are we going to pull
the trigger or not, because then will

1088
01:22:42.239 --> 01:22:47.279
Osprey's coming in to probably a Wembley
main event. You could do swerve and

1089
01:22:47.399 --> 01:22:51.239
ospray in the main event at Wembley. I mean, there's different ways you

1090
01:22:51.239 --> 01:22:55.920
could go with it, but I
think that's the direction that we're going in,

1091
01:22:55.920 --> 01:22:58.279
and I think that'd be a hell
of a match for Revolution. You

1092
01:22:58.319 --> 01:23:01.000
do a three way with those guys, I think that would be an excellent

1093
01:23:01.039 --> 01:23:05.800
title match. I really enjoyed this
episode tonight. Again there was a lot

1094
01:23:05.840 --> 01:23:09.319
going on. They have a lot
of different stories going on. We got

1095
01:23:09.319 --> 01:23:15.880
the explanation from Adam Cole about the
Undisputed Kingdom stuff and talking about MJF and

1096
01:23:15.960 --> 01:23:19.800
talking about what Roddy and what Wardlow
are going to be doing. We got

1097
01:23:19.800 --> 01:23:26.640
the Mariah May debut, the arrival
of Diana Parrazzo. We had the Taqushta

1098
01:23:26.680 --> 01:23:29.840
match with Darby, which if you
didn't see this show, go check that

1099
01:23:29.880 --> 01:23:33.079
match out. It's worth It's only
about eleven or twelve minutes. It's worth

1100
01:23:33.119 --> 01:23:36.239
going out of your way to watch. That is now going to lead to

1101
01:23:36.279 --> 01:23:40.840
a rare sting match on television next
week, and then we got what we

1102
01:23:40.880 --> 01:23:45.640
got here in the main event.
So I thought this was actually a great

1103
01:23:45.680 --> 01:23:48.520
episode of Dynamite. I've enjoyed.
I enjoyed the show tonight more than most

1104
01:23:48.560 --> 01:23:54.039
of the recent episodes they've done.
Let's take a look at the Twitter poll

1105
01:23:55.840 --> 01:24:00.279
the x pole. How would you
grade Dynamite for January third seven? Twenty

1106
01:24:00.279 --> 01:24:03.760
four percent of you have given this
show a thumbs up, twenty six percent

1107
01:24:03.840 --> 01:24:08.159
of you say thumbs down. I
don't see how this could be a thumbs

1108
01:24:08.239 --> 01:24:15.199
down show. But teach their own
I guess at Solemn Monster, let me

1109
01:24:15.239 --> 01:24:21.119
know what you thought you know the
drill. Let's take a look at your

1110
01:24:21.119 --> 01:24:28.439
super chats. Get them on in. By the way, is now twelve

1111
01:24:28.520 --> 01:24:34.119
midnight. I believe we are less
than two hours away from Wressell Kingdom.

1112
01:24:35.199 --> 01:24:40.880
I'm not staying up for Wrestle Kingdom. If you think that, I'm going

1113
01:24:40.920 --> 01:24:45.119
to watch two hours of Dynamite and
then stream for another two and a half

1114
01:24:45.159 --> 01:24:50.039
hours and then stay up for five
hours to watch Wressell Kingdom. Yeah,

1115
01:24:50.079 --> 01:24:55.199
that's not gonna happen. I will
watch it at some point tomorrow. But

1116
01:24:55.239 --> 01:25:00.159
I know some of you are probably
gonna do the the live viewing, God

1117
01:25:00.239 --> 01:25:08.119
bless you. I can't bring myself
to do it. Groovy Goose Hogan never

1118
01:25:08.199 --> 01:25:12.800
signed an NDA for brawl Out.
That's true. By the way, I

1119
01:25:12.840 --> 01:25:17.640
have some breaking news on that I
never signed an NDA either. If you

1120
01:25:17.640 --> 01:25:28.520
one day, I'll tell my story, Lady fire Panda. Sources have revealed

1121
01:25:28.600 --> 01:25:35.760
a terrible truth about me that I
do drink coffee, and I only say

1122
01:25:35.800 --> 01:25:45.279
I don't to get a reaction from
the coffee drinkers. Coffee is disgusting.

1123
01:25:45.359 --> 01:25:47.479
I do not like coffee. I
do not like the taste of it,

1124
01:25:49.079 --> 01:25:55.239
and I don't apologize. So there
you go. That's the truth. That's

1125
01:25:55.239 --> 01:25:58.239
the whole truth, and nothing but
the truth. Uh. Nick Grosso,

1126
01:25:58.279 --> 01:26:01.359
It's great to see Deanna Parrazzo and
a just hope Tony Khan uses her right

1127
01:26:02.119 --> 01:26:10.520
and doesn't just feed her to Tony
and then relegate her to rampage. Well,

1128
01:26:10.640 --> 01:26:14.560
remember you know we had Tie a
Valkyrie debuted and where's she been?

1129
01:26:15.920 --> 01:26:20.840
Where has Ti a Valkyrie been?
Hopefully that does not happen with Diana Parrazzo

1130
01:26:23.840 --> 01:26:28.520
the real cso too. If Mercedes
is coming to aw, when do you

1131
01:26:28.560 --> 01:26:32.319
think she will debut? Don't that
have a show coming up in Boston?

1132
01:26:32.479 --> 01:26:35.039
Or am I trippy? Well,
somebody look that up. Is there a

1133
01:26:35.119 --> 01:26:39.880
dynamite or a collision coming up?
Well, it would be on dynamite.

1134
01:26:40.640 --> 01:26:45.720
Is there a dynamite coming up in
Boston? If so, when, because

1135
01:26:45.760 --> 01:26:48.840
if there is a Boston show coming
up this month, that would probably be

1136
01:26:48.880 --> 01:26:57.920
the place. Corey Barnett, good
to catch you live for once. It

1137
01:26:58.039 --> 01:27:01.119
makes it hard living in Australia.
Have been listening since two thousand and nine.

1138
01:27:01.159 --> 01:27:03.880
Well, Corey, I'm glad that
you can stay up. Are you

1139
01:27:03.960 --> 01:27:10.479
going to be going to OPTAs Stadium? Will you be in Perth for the

1140
01:27:10.520 --> 01:27:17.039
Elimination Chamber? Hey, Georgio,
I'm glad you're enjoying the chat. Man,

1141
01:27:17.079 --> 01:27:21.880
I'm glad to have you here.
Christopher Smith, United Kingdom is a

1142
01:27:21.880 --> 01:27:27.800
cool name and heal Adam Cole is
so good? Also interested in getting j

1143
01:27:28.000 --> 01:27:36.159
White against Adam Cole when Cole is
healthy? Absolutely, Joey Jojo Junior a

1144
01:27:36.199 --> 01:27:41.039
great show tonight. Where do we
think Kyle O'Reilly fits into the Undisputed Kingdom

1145
01:27:41.119 --> 01:27:45.920
story? An old friend and foe
of Adam Cole would work either way.

1146
01:27:46.760 --> 01:27:50.159
Yeah, I mean, it would
work either way. I would think he

1147
01:27:50.159 --> 01:27:59.319
would end up with them. Is
that one person too many? Yeah?

1148
01:28:00.079 --> 01:28:02.079
He is. I don't think you
want to really overload it with too many

1149
01:28:02.119 --> 01:28:06.680
people. I mean, I guess
the question really is would they need him?

1150
01:28:08.479 --> 01:28:12.800
Does the group need Kyle O'Reilly?
If you've got Cole and you've got

1151
01:28:12.840 --> 01:28:17.000
Wardlow, Roddy, Tavin and Bennett, where would Kyle fit into that?

1152
01:28:18.520 --> 01:28:28.199
I don't know that he would.
Arabian Night narrative in AW women's division could

1153
01:28:28.239 --> 01:28:32.279
be changing, Sasha possibly signing now
Deanna plus Rose's return followed by Britt and

1154
01:28:32.319 --> 01:28:41.479
Hater. Triple H should sign Camille
Wwe is probably gonna get Camille. They're

1155
01:28:41.640 --> 01:28:44.880
very high on her. There was
a whole report on her today. She

1156
01:28:45.039 --> 01:28:48.319
is a free agent. They're very
high on signing her. I think that

1157
01:28:48.399 --> 01:28:53.840
they are likely going to be the
ones to land her and Liah. She

1158
01:28:53.840 --> 01:28:59.359
would be a good pick up for
them. Bobert, thank you for the

1159
01:28:59.399 --> 01:29:10.800
twenty two row row Roman reigns Riley, Parvind loves himself some Remode, Riley,

1160
01:29:10.880 --> 01:29:15.039
thank you, Jaden Burks, Hangman
Swerve main event of all In for

1161
01:29:15.159 --> 01:29:23.119
the AEW title could be, could
be. That's why I thought they were

1162
01:29:23.119 --> 01:29:27.840
gonna get away from these two and
Swerve eventually would win the championship, So

1163
01:29:28.600 --> 01:29:31.399
you could even then, wait if
he makes it that far for Full Gear

1164
01:29:32.239 --> 01:29:35.600
one year after the Texas Death Match, you could headline Full Gear for the

1165
01:29:35.640 --> 01:29:45.000
title with Swerve defending against Hangman.
Uffman Entertainment just left the Prudential Center.

1166
01:29:45.039 --> 01:29:50.800
Really fun Dynamite and a good rampage. Hope Dynamite came out well on TV.

1167
01:29:51.000 --> 01:29:55.760
Jersey was loud and proud. We'll
listen to the recap for the drive

1168
01:29:55.840 --> 01:30:00.199
home. Thank you, Uffman and
yeah yeah, the crowd was a was

1169
01:30:00.279 --> 01:30:08.359
very vocal tonight, justin Holy shit, chance for making my row row Roman

1170
01:30:08.399 --> 01:30:11.760
reigns gently down the stream a super
chat. Also, have you looked up

1171
01:30:11.800 --> 01:30:17.840
the poster? It is pretty funny
poster. What are you talking about?

1172
01:30:17.880 --> 01:30:26.119
I know now, I haven't O'Riley
with a couple of more brimodes here.

1173
01:30:27.800 --> 01:30:31.520
I didn't know you were such a
total belliz feet Nick Grosso with Adam Cole

1174
01:30:31.600 --> 01:30:35.760
already planting seeds for Wardlow's exit from
the group. Does this lead to Kyle

1175
01:30:35.760 --> 01:30:43.520
O'Reilly eventually replacing Wardlow in the UK
and so to tie it back to what

1176
01:30:43.520 --> 01:30:47.960
we were just talking about, if
that were to happen, if the timing

1177
01:30:48.119 --> 01:30:55.680
was to align where Kyle comes back
around the time that Wardlow would be exiting

1178
01:30:55.760 --> 01:31:00.800
the group, then sure he could
take his place. But this Wardlow thing,

1179
01:31:00.960 --> 01:31:03.560
I mean, that's gotta be a
long term thing, you know.

1180
01:31:03.720 --> 01:31:08.680
I mean, Kyle is I think
Kyle is already training to come back.

1181
01:31:10.039 --> 01:31:15.239
So if he's going to be back
in the next I even even if it

1182
01:31:15.279 --> 01:31:18.920
was another three or four months before
Kyle was able to come back, Wardlow

1183
01:31:19.000 --> 01:31:23.800
is still going to be a part
of the group. Now, what you

1184
01:31:23.840 --> 01:31:28.279
could do is, if you know
that Wardlow is going to exit, let's

1185
01:31:28.319 --> 01:31:31.600
say a few months later, you
can initially bring Kyle back as part of

1186
01:31:31.640 --> 01:31:36.439
the group with the idea that Wardlow
is going to be going away soon,

1187
01:31:38.239 --> 01:31:41.560
and then he'll effectively take his place. So, I mean, there are

1188
01:31:41.680 --> 01:31:44.479
ways to make it work. I
just think if you're just gonna have Kyle

1189
01:31:44.680 --> 01:31:47.000
tacked on and that's just gonna be
the full group, I just don't know

1190
01:31:47.039 --> 01:31:54.399
that he's needed. But then what
else does he do? I mean,

1191
01:31:54.520 --> 01:32:00.239
is it just gonna be Kyle O'Reilly
by himself? As a babyface. Maybe

1192
01:32:00.279 --> 01:32:02.960
it would be a better spot for
him to be in that group. I

1193
01:32:03.119 --> 01:32:10.680
just feel like that's a lot of
that's a lot of people. Bryce with

1194
01:32:10.760 --> 01:32:15.800
the nine ninety nine I was I
was a sold out. No, he

1195
01:32:16.319 --> 01:32:20.920
I was. I was a sold
I don't know what you're trying to rie,

1196
01:32:21.000 --> 01:32:26.359
brother, I was not sold I'm
guessing I was not sold on May

1197
01:32:26.399 --> 01:32:30.640
as soon as I don't know.
I don't know what you're trying to say.

1198
01:32:30.680 --> 01:32:38.119
Bryce. I think he likes Mariah
May, though he was not sold

1199
01:32:38.159 --> 01:32:42.600
on Mariah May until she hit that
perfect drop game. Besides that, I

1200
01:32:42.600 --> 01:32:45.079
feel Tony Khan dropped the ball with
Andrade could have paired him with Rusche and

1201
01:32:45.119 --> 01:32:48.760
pushed them together as a tag team. He could have. I don't know.

1202
01:32:48.760 --> 01:32:51.600
Maybe Androda didn't want to do the
tag team thing. Androdde might want

1203
01:32:51.640 --> 01:32:58.159
to do singles. I don't know
where his head is at on what he

1204
01:32:58.239 --> 01:33:01.159
wanted to do. Then you look
at somebody like a Malachi Black who didn't

1205
01:33:01.159 --> 01:33:09.520
wrestle a singles match all year,
and anytime somebody comments about it and he

1206
01:33:09.640 --> 01:33:13.079
responds, it's not like he's saying, oh, it's you know, don't

1207
01:33:13.079 --> 01:33:15.319
don't blame Tony, don't blame the
company. It's you know, he just

1208
01:33:15.359 --> 01:33:19.600
says, I don't know. I'm
not the one who makes those decisions.

1209
01:33:20.640 --> 01:33:24.319
It's just a very but but he
makes it clear it's not an injury thing.

1210
01:33:25.640 --> 01:33:28.760
So it's very weird. How do
you go an entire year and not

1211
01:33:28.840 --> 01:33:32.800
have Malachi Black in a single one
on one match? How do you do

1212
01:33:32.880 --> 01:33:38.039
that? We get Buddy Matthews in
singles matches, we get Brody King in

1213
01:33:38.079 --> 01:33:45.000
the Continental Classic. We didn't even
get Malachai in the Continental Classic. That's

1214
01:33:45.039 --> 01:33:47.439
why most people thought, well,
maybe there's an injury reason for it.

1215
01:33:47.960 --> 01:33:53.119
Maybe he's protecting him. But if
he himself is saying that it's not an

1216
01:33:53.119 --> 01:33:57.600
injury related issue, then what the
fuck is it? I don't I don't

1217
01:33:57.600 --> 01:34:00.680
get it. This guy was brought
up, Remember he beat Cody Rhodes.

1218
01:34:01.800 --> 01:34:08.039
It was so much fanfare around him
when he first came in. Why is

1219
01:34:08.119 --> 01:34:10.840
Tony so afraid to put him in
the ring one on one? There's gotta

1220
01:34:10.880 --> 01:34:14.800
be some sort of a medical explanation
for it. It doesn't make sense.

1221
01:34:14.840 --> 01:34:25.720
Otherwise it just doesn't make sense.
Hey, abk man, ABK is dropping

1222
01:34:25.840 --> 01:34:32.640
bombs left and right here on these
streams. ABK, I like you,

1223
01:34:32.720 --> 01:34:39.800
Tobe brother, thank you very much
for the three hundred dollars super chat bomb

1224
01:34:41.319 --> 01:34:53.359
Offenheim. Tony Storm can't be a
national treasure if she is from Australia.

1225
01:34:56.079 --> 01:35:02.159
Thank you for pointing out my technically
wrong response, Hoffenheim. Hoffenheim is going

1226
01:35:02.239 --> 01:35:08.840
to tell the teacher that I forgot
to give you guys homework. Offenheim,

1227
01:35:08.960 --> 01:35:15.239
thank you. I appreciate the five
bucks Klatus. Should Tony Kahan make NDA's

1228
01:35:15.359 --> 01:35:27.000
and non disparagement mandatory? No,
I don't think anybody should make NDAs mandatory.

1229
01:35:29.039 --> 01:35:30.800
Rizzo. I don't think kill Switch
will be a big star until they

1230
01:35:30.840 --> 01:35:34.720
take off that stupid mask. I
gave it a pass in Luca Underground because

1231
01:35:34.760 --> 01:35:42.239
that was a TV show, that's
right. He was v Bora on Lucia

1232
01:35:42.319 --> 01:35:47.840
Underground and he had the mask on
there too. I don't know. Maybe

1233
01:35:47.840 --> 01:35:50.319
he's just really ugly and he feels
like he has to wear a mask.

1234
01:35:53.039 --> 01:35:57.119
I don't know. Rojo Beart twenty
four. Jack Perry signed his contract five

1235
01:35:57.199 --> 01:36:00.640
years ago in January of twenty nineteen. It's possible that Tony Khan let it

1236
01:36:00.680 --> 01:36:04.920
expire and does not re sign him. Well, we don't know if he

1237
01:36:05.000 --> 01:36:11.840
signed an extension during that period of
time, but if he didn't, sure,

1238
01:36:12.039 --> 01:36:17.159
it's possible. Anything's possible. Hasn't
been back for five months. It

1239
01:36:17.239 --> 01:36:23.000
feels like he's on the bubble and
I don't know that he necessarily is coming

1240
01:36:23.039 --> 01:36:32.399
back. I don't know. Joey
Jojo Junior left the stream for a bit

1241
01:36:32.439 --> 01:36:35.920
to go get a twenty four hour
BP monitor put on. Not a smart

1242
01:36:35.960 --> 01:36:41.199
idea since I will be watching Russell
Kingdom, all the false finishes will get

1243
01:36:41.199 --> 01:36:49.600
my blood pressure up. Well,
enjoy the show. I'm looking forward to

1244
01:36:49.720 --> 01:37:01.399
Okata and Danielson. Brobert thank you
as well for the five dollars super chat.

1245
01:37:02.800 --> 01:37:06.840
It's like it came in twice.
BW says, your thoughts on the

1246
01:37:06.880 --> 01:37:15.520
horror on the horror, take movie
and game wise of the now public domain

1247
01:37:15.840 --> 01:37:18.640
Steamboat Willie version of Mickey Mouse,
and do you think it will last?

1248
01:37:20.399 --> 01:37:28.159
I saw there was a trailer for
a horror movie with Steamboat Willie, but

1249
01:37:28.279 --> 01:37:30.960
if the actual movie is on like
YouTube or something, I did not see

1250
01:37:30.960 --> 01:37:36.199
it. It reminded me of Winnie
the Pooh, Blood and Honey, which

1251
01:37:36.239 --> 01:37:44.199
I also did not see. Barry
says, what if the Rock really will

1252
01:37:44.239 --> 01:37:46.920
be a guest referee for Romans match
of WrestleMania, but he turns heel and

1253
01:37:47.039 --> 01:37:56.439
helps Roman win. Oh God,
why did you put that out there?

1254
01:37:57.960 --> 01:38:00.920
Why? Why did you speak those
words? Why did you make me speak

1255
01:38:00.960 --> 01:38:06.800
those words? I have no issue
with The Rock being an enforcer for Roman

1256
01:38:06.840 --> 01:38:15.359
and Cody or WrestleMania to keep Solo
and Jimmy from getting involved. I have

1257
01:38:15.399 --> 01:38:26.199
no issue with it. Anything else
is unacceptable. Rosslaum and seeing a tweet

1258
01:38:28.960 --> 01:38:34.039
about you moaning, and all I
could do was laugh at the hypocrisy of

1259
01:38:34.079 --> 01:38:38.720
them moaning about you moaning. Oh, they do it all the time.

1260
01:38:40.920 --> 01:38:45.279
They hate me so much. They
watch all my content. It's the funniest

1261
01:38:45.319 --> 01:38:51.960
thing. They watch the content.
They leave comments, they engage, spike

1262
01:38:53.039 --> 01:38:58.560
the numbers. It's great. I
love it. I love it. And

1263
01:38:58.600 --> 01:39:03.479
it's usually accounts that have, you
know, like some kind of fucking anime

1264
01:39:03.720 --> 01:39:13.239
character or some wrestlers fucking headshot is
their profile picture. I find it amusing.

1265
01:39:14.720 --> 01:39:16.800
M Mills, thank you for the
eight bucks. Happy New Year to

1266
01:39:16.880 --> 01:39:25.880
you, Arabian Night. People say
Aw's women's divisions lack story, but look

1267
01:39:25.920 --> 01:39:30.159
at Raw and Rhea. No compelling
stories since WrestleMania and it is rarely critiqued.

1268
01:39:30.760 --> 01:39:33.159
AW seems to get more flack with
women's stories. Is that accurate?

1269
01:39:33.239 --> 01:39:39.159
Not for me? Maybe from other
people. I've talked about the SmackDown women's

1270
01:39:39.199 --> 01:39:45.520
division before. I've talked about Rhea
not having any challengers because no one has

1271
01:39:45.520 --> 01:39:49.319
been built up to be credible enough
to challenge her. You've heard me talk

1272
01:39:49.359 --> 01:39:53.039
about that on these streams. I
can't speak for other people. I can

1273
01:39:53.039 --> 01:39:59.640
only speak for myself, but that
certainly doesn't apply to me. Retro Koh

1274
01:40:00.039 --> 01:40:03.640
had enough channel subs. Will you
enjoy a coffee on stream? Try it?

1275
01:40:03.840 --> 01:40:10.239
You'll love it. I have tried
it before. I make it sound

1276
01:40:10.279 --> 01:40:12.600
like I haven't had coffee in my
life. I tried it. I didn't

1277
01:40:12.640 --> 01:40:17.279
like it. It's disgusting. Can't
put milk or cream in it anyway.

1278
01:40:17.279 --> 01:40:20.479
I can't have either one of those
things. So what's the fucking point?

1279
01:40:20.560 --> 01:40:25.560
D H sires there's no Boston shows
for AW within the next three months,

1280
01:40:25.600 --> 01:40:31.399
and next week's show only has nineteen
hundred tickets sold for Dynamite. Well that's

1281
01:40:31.439 --> 01:40:35.319
not good. Where are they next
week? They've been running smaller buildings,

1282
01:40:35.319 --> 01:40:39.600
so I don't know if that's nineteen
hundred in a ten thousand seat building,

1283
01:40:39.680 --> 01:40:44.319
or we talk in nineteen hundred in
a four thousand seat building. Yeah,

1284
01:40:44.359 --> 01:40:49.880
nineteen hundred is not good for a
dynamite. Bws's thoughts on Triple H's big

1285
01:40:49.920 --> 01:40:55.800
announcement tomorrow night. Yeah, he's
making a big announcement on their twenty twenty

1286
01:40:55.840 --> 01:41:00.800
four preview special on Peacock. My
guess if I had a venture, guests,

1287
01:41:01.319 --> 01:41:05.880
is that it has to do with
announcing the location for a major show,

1288
01:41:08.560 --> 01:41:15.359
maybe a WrestleMania, maybe WrestleMania forty
one, could be uh Summer.

1289
01:41:15.600 --> 01:41:18.079
Have they announced a SummerSlam location.
I don't know if they've annound SummerSlam yet,

1290
01:41:19.239 --> 01:41:23.680
but that would be my guess.
Maybe another international show since they're doing

1291
01:41:23.720 --> 01:41:28.359
more international pls that that would be
my guess. It has something to do

1292
01:41:28.439 --> 01:41:31.479
with them. There's been so many
rumors going around all day about what you

1293
01:41:31.479 --> 01:41:40.119
know, I've seen some crazy shit
today, the TNA stuff. It's like

1294
01:41:42.439 --> 01:41:45.920
again, people are they're building it
up. They're going to be very disappointed

1295
01:41:45.439 --> 01:41:48.000
when it ends up not being what
they think it is going to be.

1296
01:41:53.840 --> 01:41:58.359
Uffman says. Also there were no
WU Energy drinks available at the Prudential Center.

1297
01:42:00.680 --> 01:42:04.039
Is that because they were all sold
out or because they weren't selling them?

1298
01:42:04.520 --> 01:42:10.640
I can't imagine they were all sold
out. Samuel Hayworth, you go

1299
01:42:10.720 --> 01:42:14.399
to jail for a crime you didn't
commit. Your cellmate is nails. Do

1300
01:42:14.479 --> 01:42:21.079
you try to bum him like Vince
did? Do I try to bum him?

1301
01:42:21.199 --> 01:42:30.479
What does that mean? He attacked
Vince? Vince didn't attack him.

1302
01:42:30.680 --> 01:42:34.399
Now you know what? I get
on his good side by telling him.

1303
01:42:34.680 --> 01:42:39.119
We could talk about how much Vince
McMahon, We could tell Vince McMahon's stories

1304
01:42:39.119 --> 01:42:42.439
about how much Vince McMahon sucks.
I'll do that just to keep him on

1305
01:42:42.479 --> 01:42:46.319
my good side, and we'll get
along just fine. He and I will

1306
01:42:46.359 --> 01:42:54.840
get along just Peachy Arabian Night,
Undisputed Era two point zero Triple H wishes

1307
01:42:54.920 --> 01:43:00.640
he still had all of them Triple
H wishes he had. Adam Cole was

1308
01:43:00.760 --> 01:43:04.800
like the perfect I guess they're not
technically employees, but we'll use the word

1309
01:43:04.840 --> 01:43:10.840
employee. He was just the model
citizen in WWE. He was, I

1310
01:43:10.840 --> 01:43:15.399
mean, everything that Triple H would
love to have in one of his top

1311
01:43:15.439 --> 01:43:17.520
guys, with the exception of the
size issue. Because Adam Cole is a

1312
01:43:17.560 --> 01:43:25.439
small guy. I mean if Adam
Cole was six one or six' two

1313
01:43:25.680 --> 01:43:29.960
with some muscle mass on his body, I mean, he'd already be WWE

1314
01:43:30.000 --> 01:43:33.000
champion by it. That was the
only thing he was missing at a time

1315
01:43:33.000 --> 01:43:39.119
when Vince McMahon still had power.
But he was beloved when he was in

1316
01:43:39.279 --> 01:43:45.439
n XT it loved him. Sean
Michaels loved him. Triple H loved him.

1317
01:43:45.560 --> 01:43:46.960
Triple H did not want to lose
Adam Cole. He did not want

1318
01:43:47.000 --> 01:43:51.560
to lose any of those guys.
He would love to have them back.

1319
01:43:54.600 --> 01:43:57.920
Uh Rizzo, I'll ask you,
plus the chat, should WWE do with

1320
01:43:57.960 --> 01:44:02.560
WrestleMania what New does with Wrestle Kingdom
and always have it on the same day.

1321
01:44:03.960 --> 01:44:08.760
No, I don't think that's necessary
at all. Yeah, it just

1322
01:44:08.760 --> 01:44:14.479
became a January fourth tradition for New
Japan. Actually, I think January fourth

1323
01:44:14.560 --> 01:44:16.920
next year, I believe is on
a Saturday, which will be interesting to

1324
01:44:16.920 --> 01:44:20.840
see how that affects attendance. I
think Tanahashi mentioned something about that he thinks

1325
01:44:20.840 --> 01:44:26.319
that the attendance for next year's show
should be even better because it's on a

1326
01:44:26.359 --> 01:44:30.039
Saturday. I believe it's on a
Saturday, but now WrestleMania doesn't have to

1327
01:44:30.039 --> 01:44:34.760
be on the same day. Who
cares? Who cares what day it is?

1328
01:44:38.359 --> 01:44:42.560
Rumpelmy what happened to Wisea? I
don't know, I remember Whisa.

1329
01:44:42.640 --> 01:44:49.640
I don't know Rizzo. I've been
team WWF slash E since I watched wrestling

1330
01:44:49.720 --> 01:44:54.000
back in the early nineties. But
if Jacob fought two shows up to wrestle

1331
01:44:54.039 --> 01:45:01.560
Mania forty and cost Cody and this
story continues for another year, I'm done.

1332
01:45:02.720 --> 01:45:08.199
I'll take Jacob Botu in the Bloodline, but yeah, I can't take

1333
01:45:08.199 --> 01:45:15.560
another year of this. D Gibbs
Tony Kahan still won't put Athena on television.

1334
01:45:18.680 --> 01:45:26.319
I don't get it. I don't
get it. Every other person in

1335
01:45:26.439 --> 01:45:31.000
Ring of Honor we see them on
aw television, the one person who you

1336
01:45:31.039 --> 01:45:33.239
would think, okay, well,
hey, if they're gonna put Ring of

1337
01:45:33.279 --> 01:45:38.279
Honor talents on AWTV, at least
we'll get Athena. And we don't get

1338
01:45:38.279 --> 01:45:42.199
her on TV. Is it in
her contract that she's not allowed to perform

1339
01:45:42.279 --> 01:45:45.119
on tn T or TVs because she
was in the Owen Heart right, she

1340
01:45:45.159 --> 01:45:50.800
was in the Owen Heart Tournament.
I don't get it. I don't understand,

1341
01:45:51.359 --> 01:45:59.039
and Uffmann says they were not selling
the WU Energy drinks. Well,

1342
01:45:59.119 --> 01:46:01.800
they definitely mentioned it at the beginning
of the show. They mentioned that the

1343
01:46:01.840 --> 01:46:05.600
show, I think was sponsored by
WU Energy. The opening the opening match

1344
01:46:05.720 --> 01:46:14.399
was brought to you by WU Energy. So they're not done hawking the fucking

1345
01:46:15.000 --> 01:46:20.760
drink. But I guess they weren't
selling them in New Jersey. Maybe that's

1346
01:46:20.760 --> 01:46:30.000
a bad sign. Thank you,
Uffman. Uffman was at the show tonight

1347
01:46:30.800 --> 01:46:36.960
and had a good time. The
gold tonight was four hundred for be the

1348
01:46:36.960 --> 01:46:41.680
booker, and we are currently at
four forty three, so you guys have

1349
01:46:42.359 --> 01:46:45.680
pushed us over the finish line.
Hey, the Juliette says next week is

1350
01:46:45.880 --> 01:46:49.880
Daily's place for Dynamite. Yes,
I mentioned that earlier. They are going

1351
01:46:49.920 --> 01:46:58.239
to be back at their pandemic home
next week. Also, that's where it

1352
01:46:58.279 --> 01:47:00.720
is next Okay, yeah, okay, right, the nineteen hundred Okay,

1353
01:47:01.880 --> 01:47:06.680
well, nineteen hundred and Daily's place, though, that's that's for Daily's place.

1354
01:47:06.680 --> 01:47:12.039
That's probably pretty good, isn't it. Yeah. I didn't put two

1355
01:47:12.039 --> 01:47:15.640
and two together there for a second. Then the nineteen hundred attendance for next

1356
01:47:15.640 --> 01:47:17.960
week that we were talking about it's
Daily's place. I think I mean for

1357
01:47:18.039 --> 01:47:21.680
Daily's place. I think that's fine. Daily's place is not that big well,

1358
01:47:21.720 --> 01:47:28.960
I mean, what is The capacity
can't be that much more. The

1359
01:47:29.000 --> 01:47:31.680
real CS Triple H did not want
Vince McMahon getting his hands on Adam.

1360
01:47:31.960 --> 01:47:39.279
That's why he stayed in NXT until
his departure. And I don't blame Adam

1361
01:47:39.279 --> 01:47:44.520
Cole for leaving because Adam Cole.
How could Adam Cole have foreseen what was

1362
01:47:44.560 --> 01:47:49.239
going to happen with Vince McMahon.
I don't blame him for leaving. He

1363
01:47:49.359 --> 01:47:54.640
was smart enough to recognize that if
I stick around this place and things don't

1364
01:47:54.680 --> 01:47:59.000
change, I'm never gonna get anywhere. And he probably would. He probably

1365
01:47:59.000 --> 01:48:01.039
would have ended up with somebody manager, whether it's Keith Lee or somebody else,

1366
01:48:03.119 --> 01:48:06.560
and he would have been a damn
fine manager. But Adam Cole is

1367
01:48:06.600 --> 01:48:13.439
more than just the fucking manager.
I don't blame him for leaving. D

1368
01:48:13.640 --> 01:48:17.479
Gibbs Triple H. We are celebrating
forty years of Hulkamania. Oh you know

1369
01:48:17.520 --> 01:48:21.359
what, that's right. I think
you have a lot of very disappointed people.

1370
01:48:21.359 --> 01:48:26.319
If that was the announcement, they
are going to be celebrating forty years

1371
01:48:26.319 --> 01:48:30.159
of Hulkamania, because on January twenty
third, it will be the forty year

1372
01:48:30.199 --> 01:48:35.239
anniversary that Hulk Hogan beat the Iron
Cheek. But if that is the special

1373
01:48:35.239 --> 01:48:41.680
announcement, then that would be pretty
fucking lame. I don't have an issue

1374
01:48:41.680 --> 01:48:45.680
with them celebrating forty years of Hulkamania. I think that's fine. It's one

1375
01:48:45.720 --> 01:48:50.560
of the biggest moments in the history
of the company. But if that's the

1376
01:48:50.600 --> 01:48:57.600
big announcement, then yeah, that's
that's fucking lame. Bony. If aw

1377
01:48:57.760 --> 01:49:01.039
got a streaming deal with Max,
could you say some international shows like Japan

1378
01:49:01.199 --> 01:49:06.680
or Mexico, like WWE is doing, Australia and Saudi. Yeah, yeah,

1379
01:49:06.720 --> 01:49:09.560
I mean, look a look at
how they did in the UK.

1380
01:49:11.000 --> 01:49:15.800
I think in certain markets internationally,
I mean Japan. It's hard to say.

1381
01:49:15.840 --> 01:49:20.279
I don't know what their popularity is
like in Japan, but yeah,

1382
01:49:20.279 --> 01:49:24.399
I think that we would see more
international show. I think we're going to

1383
01:49:24.439 --> 01:49:29.000
see more international shows from them regardless. The only reason we didn't get a

1384
01:49:29.079 --> 01:49:33.399
UK show sooner was because of COVID. Ye know, he said he wants

1385
01:49:33.439 --> 01:49:43.399
to run Craven Cottage in the UK. Also Wapatapa Dianna my thick goddess.

1386
01:49:45.399 --> 01:49:51.680
Wapa Tapa is a big Deanna Parazzo
fit Abk says, capacity for Daily's place

1387
01:49:51.800 --> 01:49:56.279
is five Is it five thousand?
Is it that much? I didn't think

1388
01:49:56.279 --> 01:50:01.079
it was that big, all right. Well, then nineteen hundred is not

1389
01:50:01.119 --> 01:50:08.520
great. I thought it was smaller
than that for some reason. Yeah,

1390
01:50:08.800 --> 01:50:15.199
nineteen hundred is not good. All
right, So let's go ahead and be

1391
01:50:15.279 --> 01:50:20.760
the booker. Ladies and gentlemen.
It is now time to be the booker.

1392
01:50:24.399 --> 01:50:27.960
You guys wanted it. He got
me to the goal. Keep hitting

1393
01:50:27.960 --> 01:50:30.640
that thumbs up. We've been getting
a lot of new subscribers, a lot

1394
01:50:30.680 --> 01:50:35.760
of new eyeballs on the channel over
the past four or five days. You

1395
01:50:35.880 --> 01:50:43.039
got some videos here on the channel
that have twenty thirty fifty thousand views.

1396
01:50:43.600 --> 01:50:47.479
So let's get those lights up and
get some more people to discover the sound

1397
01:50:47.479 --> 01:50:53.319
off and let's kick things off here
with Davy Boy Smith and the Dynamite Kid

1398
01:50:54.479 --> 01:51:00.239
the British Bulldogs kicking us off here
in be the booker. Former tag team

1399
01:51:00.319 --> 01:51:08.399
champions British Bulldog is gonna be setting
foot in the ring against the Beverly Brothers

1400
01:51:12.640 --> 01:51:16.119
I am a I am a fan
of the Beverly Brothers. I like the

1401
01:51:16.119 --> 01:51:23.079
Beverly Brothers. I like their theme
music, their finishing maneuver is deadly.

1402
01:51:26.399 --> 01:51:35.000
I'm a Beverly Brothers mark sue me. I'm giving that the bell. That's

1403
01:51:35.079 --> 01:51:41.760
right. Von Wagner, that's right, that's right, Bliss fan von Wagner's

1404
01:51:41.840 --> 01:51:47.760
dad. I'll take von Wagner's dad
over von Wagner. All right, Women's

1405
01:51:47.760 --> 01:51:51.560
be the booker. You know,
Deanna Parozzo is in here. Deanna Parozzo

1406
01:51:51.680 --> 01:52:03.520
is in here, Mariah May,
Tony Storm, Mercedes after every single person

1407
01:52:03.560 --> 01:52:12.880
I just named, we land on, Eva Marie, Eva Marie. Is

1408
01:52:12.920 --> 01:52:23.840
how we are kicking off. Women's
be the Booker, Eva Marie and Kyrie

1409
01:52:24.000 --> 01:52:28.079
saye, you know, I hate
to do this because I love Kyrie,

1410
01:52:28.159 --> 01:52:39.359
but I hate to do it.
But that's a no go. That is

1411
01:52:39.399 --> 01:52:46.840
a no go. Can't do it. All right, here's the tie breaker.

1412
01:52:47.000 --> 01:52:51.239
This is what it comes down to. We got ourselves a tie breaker.

1413
01:52:51.239 --> 01:52:58.000
We got ourselves. Oh look who
it is. It's Chris Jericho,

1414
01:53:00.079 --> 01:53:03.119
spicuous by his absence on Dynamite tonight. No Chris Jericho on the show.

1415
01:53:05.119 --> 01:53:15.039
We have Chris Jericho and who oh
who will Chris Jericho be stepping into the

1416
01:53:15.079 --> 01:53:21.600
ring with. I know who the
heel is gonna be in this match.

1417
01:53:23.239 --> 01:53:30.960
Chris Jericho gonna go one on one
with Nick Aldus? What's causing all this?

1418
01:53:32.039 --> 01:53:36.840
Nick Aldos and Chris Jericho. I
think could have a very good match.

1419
01:53:39.479 --> 01:53:45.079
I think so. So that pushes
us over into the win category here

1420
01:53:45.079 --> 01:53:50.279
for being the booker tonight. There
you go. Please let it be Cornett.

1421
01:53:50.319 --> 01:53:59.479
Cornett is in there, but not
tonight. No Cornet tonight. So

1422
01:53:59.520 --> 01:54:04.319
there you go, Chris Jericho and
Nick all this this eva Marie and Kyrie

1423
01:54:05.079 --> 01:54:13.000
and the Beverly Brothers against the British
Bulldogs. Boy, it's too bad.

1424
01:54:13.079 --> 01:54:15.920
I would like to redo that.
Women's be the booker. Hey, the

1425
01:54:15.920 --> 01:54:18.000
real CS. Did you see the
idea that I pitched for Cody on X

1426
01:54:18.920 --> 01:54:25.319
Probably yes, but I've seen probably
ten different pitches for Cody on my timeline

1427
01:54:25.319 --> 01:54:29.479
today, so you're gonna have to
be more specific than that. But yes,

1428
01:54:29.560 --> 01:54:33.000
I'm certain I saw it. I
just did not have time to reply

1429
01:54:33.039 --> 01:54:41.479
to it. Oh man, Well, I'm gonna be live with you on

1430
01:54:41.560 --> 01:54:45.279
Friday night because we had a big
raw stream on Monday, and we got

1431
01:54:45.319 --> 01:54:48.039
a big smack Down coming up.
It's the New Year's Revolution episode of smack

1432
01:54:48.119 --> 01:54:53.880
And I believe Roman Reigns is on
the show on Friday night, and we

1433
01:54:53.920 --> 01:54:58.800
have a triple threat match to crown
a number one contender who will lose to

1434
01:54:58.960 --> 01:55:01.239
Roman Reigns. Rumble, that's how
they should title the match. Who gets

1435
01:55:01.239 --> 01:55:05.199
to lose to Roman Reigns. Will
it be Randy Orton, Will it be

1436
01:55:05.279 --> 01:55:13.039
aj Styles or will it be l
A. Knight. We'll find out.

1437
01:55:13.800 --> 01:55:16.640
I don't know if they have anything
else. They might have something else announced,

1438
01:55:17.800 --> 01:55:24.960
but I don't know. Trying to
think what the other matches are for

1439
01:55:25.039 --> 01:55:30.039
SmackDown, but oh oh, it's
a butcher and a mystery partner against pretty

1440
01:55:30.079 --> 01:55:34.479
deadly. And my guess is the
mystery partner is going to be shamous.

1441
01:55:39.279 --> 01:55:45.279
I'm gonna tall you BK again.
Hey a b K, dropping another two

1442
01:55:45.520 --> 01:55:54.479
hundred and five dollars here on the
stream. Try again for the women in

1443
01:55:54.640 --> 01:55:59.880
be the booker, please you want
to redo on the women's be the booker,

1444
01:56:00.920 --> 01:56:06.720
ABK. You know what man ask
and you shall receive. Ladies and

1445
01:56:06.840 --> 01:56:13.640
gentlemen. It is now time to
be the booker. Went to the drum

1446
01:56:13.720 --> 01:56:19.359
roll too early. There. I'm
gonna do it just for you because of

1447
01:56:19.399 --> 01:56:27.079
all your support. Tonight, ABK
is getting to redo. There you go,

1448
01:56:27.199 --> 01:56:30.439
let's get rid of the men.
Here, we are going to redo

1449
01:56:30.800 --> 01:56:34.560
women's be the booker. I don't
ever do this, but I will do

1450
01:56:34.640 --> 01:56:41.800
this for you. Here we go. You can thank ABK for this.

1451
01:56:43.880 --> 01:56:48.279
Kick things off here with the man
Becky Lynch who lost to Naya Jacks on

1452
01:56:48.399 --> 01:56:54.520
Monday Night, Becky Lynch, who
has to be one of the favorites to

1453
01:56:54.560 --> 01:57:00.880
win the women's Royal Rumble Match.
I think already headed into the right direction

1454
01:57:01.000 --> 01:57:11.760
here. Becky Lynch got a drum
roll on Presidented Night. Here and be

1455
01:57:11.840 --> 01:57:27.600
the booker. Becky Lynch one on
one with Lash Legend. Nope, nope,

1456
01:57:29.439 --> 01:57:33.720
she's not ready. She's not ready
for primetime. Maybe one day,

1457
01:57:33.880 --> 01:57:42.560
but today is not that day.
ABK. We were close. We were

1458
01:57:42.640 --> 01:57:47.279
so close. I could taste it. We were so close. No dice,

1459
01:57:50.840 --> 01:57:59.880
no dice. Nick Grosso, what
did you think of the velveteen Dreams

1460
01:58:00.159 --> 01:58:04.479
video apology? I will talk more
about that on the podcast on Sunday.

1461
01:58:04.920 --> 01:58:10.720
I did watch it. I do
have some thoughts on that. The one

1462
01:58:10.720 --> 01:58:13.720
thing I will say is Look,
for his sake, I hope he's being

1463
01:58:13.840 --> 01:58:17.800
honest and truthful and it's not just
lip service. He's not gonna work in

1464
01:58:17.840 --> 01:58:23.279
wrestling again. I mean, he
could forget about that. But as far

1465
01:58:23.319 --> 01:58:26.359
as what else, whatever else he
chooses to do in his life, look,

1466
01:58:26.359 --> 01:58:30.520
I hope he gets himself straight.
And for now, that's all I

1467
01:58:30.520 --> 01:58:33.359
have to say about that. Yeah, lash Legend, that's right, Uffman

1468
01:58:33.640 --> 01:58:40.800
lash Legend from NXT. She apparently
is one of the best athletes they have

1469
01:58:40.880 --> 01:58:45.680
there in the performance center. She
bodies slammed Otis on an episode of NXT

1470
01:58:45.800 --> 01:58:49.640
a few months ago, which was
very impressive. But in a one on

1471
01:58:49.640 --> 01:58:58.520
one match, she's not ready.
She is not that good. But that's

1472
01:58:58.520 --> 01:59:02.039
what they make performance centers. So
hopefully one day she'll be good. She'll

1473
01:59:02.079 --> 01:59:05.039
be able to have a fucking ten
or fifteen minute pay per view match with

1474
01:59:05.119 --> 01:59:13.920
somebody like Becky Lynch. That's not
gonna happen today anyway. SmackDown Big Night

was saying, as far as Wrestle Kingdom,

point tomorrow. I will either record
