WEBVTT

1
00:00:05.719 --> 00:00:09.039
It's Tuesday. You know what that
means. It's time for Ignition with the

2
00:00:09.080 --> 00:00:13.880
aw Fan podcast team. A boy, we just saw Double or Nothing and

3
00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:18.120
there's a lot of stuff leading up
to Dynamite that we're going to talk about.

4
00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:24.679
This is Kelson, This is Alex
and yeah, I don't know what

5
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:30.239
you want to talk about. First, I was thinking maybe the biggest moment

6
00:00:30.359 --> 00:00:38.399
from Double or Nothing was the return
of MJF. Definitely that was pretty big.

7
00:00:39.439 --> 00:00:46.840
Yeah, and I think that that's
pretty interesting. Like MJF he did

8
00:00:46.880 --> 00:00:53.240
return right after a will Osprey match, and for my money, like thinking

9
00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:58.399
about AW the biggest few that they
could possibly have, what I'd love to

10
00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:03.439
see maybe headlining or a big match
at all in is MJF versus will Osprey.

11
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:07.680
I don't know how how you guys
feel, but I feel like will

12
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:11.640
Osprey is like way better than anyone
expected promo wise, but no one's better

13
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:17.239
than MJF. And I just want
to see them in the ring cutting a

14
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:22.200
promo setting up an amazing match.
Well, Ax, do you think that

15
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:26.000
maybe that's having MJF and will Osprey
is maybe a little too soon to take

16
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:30.359
their shot? Yeah? No,
you know what I do feel like that.

17
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:36.319
I feel like you you wait,
so maybe not all in, but

18
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:42.000
but that's that's a feud, like
like Rock Austin and I know that's like

19
00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:47.560
a huge feud, but that could
be like Aw's version of that, like

20
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:53.239
just their two biggest stars at the
top of their game having a feud that

21
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:57.760
could last for years and years and
they could come back to it. Yeah.

22
00:01:57.799 --> 00:01:59.719
I mean, well, I would
have used a different example. I

23
00:01:59.879 --> 00:02:05.519
was or Pentacle and Nila Rose,
but Austin, okay, I look for

24
00:02:05.599 --> 00:02:07.400
a look for HIMJF to come back
and do a little bit. I think

25
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:15.719
you got to do the Samoa Joe
out Adam Cole kill before you do anything

26
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:20.039
with anybody else. New you got
to come back. He's come back.

27
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:25.400
He's already. He's already fired the
first salvo against Adam Cole. So all

28
00:02:25.400 --> 00:02:29.400
we have to do now is wait
for Adam Cole to get cleared and then

29
00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:31.000
you can have that battle. And
that's where they should go with him first.

30
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:35.120
But that was an amazing thing to
see that night. That was a

31
00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:38.159
huge pop. MK. Let me
ask you this did because I didn't notice

32
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:42.479
anything that anybody else. I'll ask
MK, and everybody else could chime in

33
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:46.400
if they want. I didn't notice
like any kind of stiffness or any kind

34
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:53.960
of limp or anything from him from
MJF, did you. No, I

35
00:02:54.080 --> 00:03:00.240
think he's back and better than ever. He he he put on some good

36
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:07.000
moves and he and he's well well, like I said, repeat myself,

37
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:10.960
but he's back and he's ready to
go. And I was. I was

38
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:16.120
more interested in seeing Adam Cole taking
the bump than I was in JF doing

39
00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:21.639
it, because that means he's getting
ready to come to be better to come

40
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:24.319
back. No, I did read. I did read a report that Adam

41
00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:30.080
Cole is not close to being cleared, and I did notice him limping a

42
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:35.240
little bit. I don't know if
that was k fabe. That was before

43
00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:39.680
MJF did anything to him. He
did limp a little bit, but he's

44
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:46.439
definitely moving better than he was when
he was sitting in the wheelchair. Yeah,

45
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:51.599
he took a brainbuster, so his
feet feet don't really have to take

46
00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:59.439
any impact. He doesn't have to
run around m So what exactly he in

47
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:02.240
here? I think he broke his
foot, right, he was just like

48
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:06.960
jumping off a ramp. Yeah,
I think it was the foot as Yeah,

49
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:10.439
he messed his ankle whip when he
came off the ramp. But though

50
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:14.560
I can't remember which show it was
now, so it's the same type of

51
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:24.639
thing that Adam Copan is going through, I think, out of probably a

52
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:30.680
little bit more serious. Yeah he
should. He fractured his shin so tibia.

53
00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:33.959
Yeah, yeah, it was basically
your shin. So he's going to

54
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:36.759
have to require surgery and it's going
to be a little bit more than an

55
00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:43.839
ankle injury. Yeah, But the
good news is they'll probably put some uh,

56
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:46.639
you know, screws in that sucker
and just have him heal up and

57
00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:50.399
be ready to go again. He'll
just have a hard time getting through security

58
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:54.399
at airports from now on. He's
a damn vampire. Come on, now,

59
00:04:54.959 --> 00:05:00.240
yeah, they have healing powers,
come on exactly. That was a

60
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:04.480
stupid spot, though, wouldn't you
say? Yeah, I mean, I'm

61
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:09.639
fifty six years old. If I
was wrestling, there ain't no way in

62
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.519
the hell I'm climbing fifteen feet in
the air. And he would have not

63
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:17.319
hurt himself if he would have hit
Malaki first, But he jumped to his

64
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:21.519
feet first. That made no sense. I'm sitting there going did he just

65
00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:25.399
blow that was that a Was that
a botch? Or? Did he do

66
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:27.959
that? Was that was a botch? It? If you did? You

67
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:33.519
see the uh the I guess the
video that Adam Copeland did where he basically

68
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:39.360
made fun of himself. You know, he was like, I messed up,

69
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:44.560
you know, totally on him.
Even went so far as I raised

70
00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:48.480
the House of Black and uh say
that they're great and everything, and he's

71
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:56.319
gonna name his crutcheses uh after the
boys. I'm I was crying. I

72
00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:02.360
was literally crying when I saw that. So let's get back though. I

73
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:08.240
mean, MK, you think it
was you? You brought up Samoa Joe

74
00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:13.879
finish business with Samoa and Joe.
Maybe just maybe, oh that was you?

75
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:18.759
Uh maybe going on to Adam Cole, maybe even Roderick Strong because you

76
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:25.560
know he's part of that too.
I don't know if anybody can make Roderick

77
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:30.240
Strong all event, it would be
MJF, right. Uh. I feel

78
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:34.879
like Roderick Strong is a dynamite feud
for m JF. That's not a pay

79
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:41.959
per view, right. Does anybody
else anybody else have a wish list of

80
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:51.639
first opponents for MJF? M Not
really? I mean there's so many I

81
00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:58.360
can think of, like Christian m
JF Faith versus Christian heal. That would

82
00:06:58.399 --> 00:07:03.959
be a lot of fun for sure, him versus Okada, him versus like

83
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:12.360
even Jack Perry, like seeing him
represent aw against the elite, that could

84
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:15.920
be a lot of fun. Like
there's so many directions really anything with m

85
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:18.839
JF. It's hard to go wrong. It's going to be interesting. But

86
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:26.839
anything he is going to be elevated. Yeah, go ahead, don't go

87
00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:33.079
h you know him versus Jack Perry
sells a lot because at last double or

88
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:41.959
nothing, I believe it was he
said that the Jack Perry needs to embrace

89
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:46.600
a different side of himself and and
and Perry finally has. So I think

90
00:07:46.720 --> 00:07:51.920
those two will be a great matchup
to see. It will give Perry some

91
00:07:51.959 --> 00:08:01.240
credibility because you both can go uh, you know he he needs that right

92
00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:09.519
now. I like this storyline because
it's helping Jack Perry a lot. And

93
00:08:09.639 --> 00:08:15.319
Jack Perry needs that one guy to
set him up and put him on the

94
00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:22.759
road to mandivent status. Yeah not. Do you have any opinions on this

95
00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:31.360
on who you would like to see
is Jeff's first opponents? I think I

96
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:39.240
think Jack Perry is a pretty good
choice for him. I don't know.

97
00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:46.559
I would like to see him take
on our esteemed EVPs and some some role

98
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:54.279
maybe uh not just you know,
Jack Perry, maybe Al Kata something like

99
00:08:54.360 --> 00:09:05.159
that, something a little unexpected and
just really really interesting. MJF is quite

100
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:09.159
the character, so I think that
anyone he wrestles it will be a really

101
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:15.399
good lead up too, and I
anticipate that almost as much as I do

102
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:20.559
the actual match. So I'm just
excited to see him back. Well,

103
00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:24.399
you know, this kind of brings
me into the next point that we're going

104
00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:31.399
to talk about, and that's the
owen Hart Cup and the announcement being that

105
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:37.559
the winners of the owen Hart Cup
will be the number one contenders for the

106
00:09:37.639 --> 00:09:46.519
men's and women's titles. Now this
was before Adam Copeland broke his leg.

107
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:52.639
Because on Dynamite we're getting the Forbidden
Door Casino Gauntlet, which also has the

108
00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:54.879
stipulation at the winner and this is
only on the men's side of course,

109
00:09:56.440 --> 00:10:03.039
will get a championship shot at Forbidden
Door. Now, there are going to

110
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:07.360
be some international stars supposedly in this
match. But here's the thing. This

111
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:16.679
was the winner the of the Forbidden
Door Casino Gauntlet and the owen Hart Cup

112
00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:24.519
are going to be getting the same
reward, and that's a chance, at

113
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:31.960
least on the men's side at the
aw Men's Championship. My idea was,

114
00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:41.000
because of Adam Copeland's injury, why
not make the Forbidden Door Casino Gauntlet as

115
00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:52.159
a as the thing that determines who
gets the shot at the TNT Championship.

116
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:58.159
Last two men standing get a shot
in the T and T Championship and then

117
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:03.320
just have the owen Hart for what
I think from thearre in Kelson is that

118
00:11:03.360 --> 00:11:07.639
the Owen Heart's not going to take
place till after Forbidden Door. That's how

119
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:13.639
I took it. I took it
that wants they announced the casino for Forbidden

120
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:16.159
Door that as soon as because you've
got like a month and a half a

121
00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:24.480
month and a half almost between Forbidden
Door and uh all in, so I

122
00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:28.080
assumed that that was where they would
put the owen Hart Battle after Forbidden Well,

123
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:33.320
they've already said that, Yeah,
the finals are July tenth. Yeah,

124
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:39.320
so they'll have the casino things tomorrow
night to determine the Forbidden Door winner

125
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:43.200
or challenger, and then whoever wins
from Forbidden Door will face whoever wins the

126
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:50.639
owen Hart at all in Yeah,
you know, so let's us look at

127
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:56.639
the old Heart real quick. Do
we think that it would be smart to

128
00:11:56.600 --> 00:12:01.200
don't remember you got? I hope
that they put out the entire brackets like

129
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:07.799
they did with the Continental Classic,
so that we can see the entire brackets

130
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:11.759
and not just make them up as
they go as they've done in the past.

131
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:24.200
But with the owen Hart Cup.
Would you like to see international wrestlers

132
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:35.000
in in the owen Hart as well? And honor yes, but because he

133
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:39.840
did spend time in Japan, I
wouldn't being in there. I don't know

134
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:46.399
who the top of my head,
but I you know, you gotta give

135
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:48.799
it some flair. You gotta give
them a chance. And you know,

136
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:54.159
I think it would be neat if
they don't lose in the first round.

137
00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:58.639
Let's put them in there and give
them a chance at least a small scott

138
00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:09.639
right, Yeah, I think it'd
be good. Yeah. I want to

139
00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:15.360
share something with you guys about the
women's division in the owen Hart Cup,

140
00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:20.440
because the women's division has a little
bit of a problem going on, right,

141
00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:26.639
okay, And let me just explain
what the problem is. On the

142
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:35.320
official roster for aw's women's divisions,
there's thirty eight women. Okay. Out

143
00:13:35.320 --> 00:13:39.919
of those thirty eight women, fourteen
of them are either out with injury or

144
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:46.679
paternity leave, or or just or
just not used in a wrestling capacity,

145
00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:50.919
like for example, Riba. You
know, she's still on the roster,

146
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:54.919
but she's not been used. Leila
Gray, she's wrestling everywhere else but a

147
00:13:56.360 --> 00:14:00.879
w Now, there are a few
that are wrestling, like tayavl Athena,

148
00:14:01.000 --> 00:14:05.240
Billy Starks are almost exclusively on our
oh, but they're on the AW roster.

149
00:14:05.799 --> 00:14:09.720
But here's the problem that they're running
into. And I am including Chris

150
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:13.919
Statlander in this up to twenty four
remaining women who are not out right now,

151
00:14:15.039 --> 00:14:22.600
only eight of them are babyfaces.
So you've got one third of the

152
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:30.120
women's roster that's active right now our
babyfaces. At two thirds of the women

153
00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:37.000
are heels. So you are you
are you putting Tony Storm and Mariah may

154
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:43.799
As in that situation? I kind
of amu. I am putting Mariah may

155
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:48.120
As a heel because she's been wrestling
mostly heels. Now, there are some

156
00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:54.720
that are queens. They're ambiguous,
like Kira Hogan, she's a babyface sometimes

157
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:58.519
and she's a heel sometimes she plays
the part that she's asked to play.

158
00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:03.000
So it's not an exact science,
but the fact of the matter is,

159
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:07.399
if you were to go through the
roster right now and look at the women

160
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:11.559
that are actively wrestling, you will
clearly say that there's a significantly more heels

161
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:15.960
that there are baby faces. Yeah, and it is a problem, and

162
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:18.799
I agree with you one hundred percent. And they do it way, way,

163
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:22.080
way too much. In aw if
you look at the men's roster,

164
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:26.159
you're going to see a lot of
men or heels too. For whatever reason,

165
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:31.600
Tony Kahn loves to have everybody be
a heel, and it doesn't work.

166
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:37.080
You can't have That's like making the
nWo all nWo black and white and

167
00:15:37.120 --> 00:15:43.200
everybody else, like fifty thousand people
all heels and you've got six people that

168
00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:45.639
are faces. It doesn't work like
that. You got to stretch it.

169
00:15:45.720 --> 00:15:48.480
That was like one of the reasons
why the whole need to turn stat Lander

170
00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:54.360
a heel or lily heel made no
sense because you just add another heel to

171
00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:58.960
a bunch of heels that you can't
you know, you can't have competition like

172
00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:07.279
at but it's like a shortcut to
generate interest or give them a new thing

173
00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:11.440
to do. But the problem with
that is, ever since the dawn of

174
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:18.240
the Internet, your heel face then
kind of doesn't make any difference anymore because

175
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:22.159
you you you, you're gonna get
heat. I mean, how many,

176
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:26.600
how many times we see guys like
Austin who was a heel but generated better

177
00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:30.279
heat. You got more cheers than
anybody else on the roster. Look at

178
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:37.159
MJF. MJFF biggest he in the
company, but he gets face heat because

179
00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:40.960
people love him. But you're not
getting that from everybody. And that's where

180
00:16:40.960 --> 00:16:45.840
the problem comes in. Well with
somebody like he'll with a heel like Austin

181
00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:52.360
and MGF, they were more like
they're more like anti heroes. You didn't

182
00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:56.240
you didn't say, oh I hate
that guy and I hope he gets a

183
00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:59.799
crap beat out of him very often. I mean, you're always like,

184
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:03.360
I just want to see him in
the ring and doing a promo. You

185
00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:06.880
know, you got excited for the
pop that they were going to give.

186
00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:10.799
I mean, it was that fair
assessment and and sudden, you know,

187
00:17:11.079 --> 00:17:15.920
you grew up in the same era
that I did. Basically, And I

188
00:17:15.920 --> 00:17:18.799
don't know about you guys, uh
you know, but when I was growing

189
00:17:18.880 --> 00:17:23.519
up, babyfaces just got the snop
beat out of them. I mean,

190
00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:29.400
babyfaces never had a belt, and
if they had a belt, a long

191
00:17:29.480 --> 00:17:33.440
run for a babyface was a month, two or three weeks month. You

192
00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:38.279
know, I didn't have these long
you know. I mean Rick Fleer,

193
00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:42.319
for example, Rick Dusty Roads were
bitter rivals, but it was the most

194
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:47.200
couldn't beat Rick Flair just to save
his life. But it was all about

195
00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:52.000
the baby face chasing the title right
for like months or even years, just

196
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:55.359
to get that one point where they
actually went Yeah. I mean, it

197
00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:59.160
was like one of those things where
it was very emotional when a babyface won,

198
00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:03.960
because ever happened, my father was
My father was always saying, you

199
00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:07.480
know how much he was disappointed in
wrestling, because it always taught the kids

200
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:12.640
that watched wrestling that the bad guys
were the only ones that succeeded. Well,

201
00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:18.079
I think it was when the bad
guys had the titles the most,

202
00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:22.640
but it was a bigger deal when
the baby face won. The reason I

203
00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:26.119
brought that up is that with the
owen Hart Cup, there's going to be

204
00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:33.200
a problem with having babyfaces to fill
out the bracket. I don't think there's

205
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:37.559
probably only going to be eight eight
people like, it's probably going to be

206
00:18:37.599 --> 00:18:44.559
four and four at most sixteen,
but I think you'll be I'll think you'll

207
00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:48.519
have eight. But it's gonna make
it because because you don't want to have

208
00:18:48.559 --> 00:18:51.720
a heel going against the heel.
It's gonna be when you see the baby

209
00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:56.279
faces in the bracket, it's gonna
be like almost obvious who's gonna win?

210
00:18:56.599 --> 00:19:03.839
So who do you think is going
to win? Like can is Jamie Hayter?

211
00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:10.319
And and then still hurt to where
they can't they debut back and and

212
00:19:10.440 --> 00:19:15.160
be their first matches back into this
tournament, because I thought I heard that

213
00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:22.359
Jamie Hayter was almost back and Britt
Baker was too. Brit Baker's they've shown

214
00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:26.640
many videos of Britt Baker training with
the likes of DDP. She looks in

215
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:34.519
great shape. She spent backstage at
dynamites and collisions and whatnot, but Jamie

216
00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:41.720
Hayter as not. And I just
read a story from one of the Dirt

217
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:44.920
sheets, and I don't know which
one, saying that Jamie Hayter was not

218
00:19:45.119 --> 00:19:51.319
at double or nothing, and there's
no timetable with Jamie Hayter one thing.

219
00:19:51.400 --> 00:19:57.440
You know, as far as who's
going to win Alex Uh, I think

220
00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:03.880
that because Brit Baker had won the
owen Hart before, I think it's gonna

221
00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:15.200
come down to Uh, Britt Baker
versus Willow Nightingale with the owen Hart because

222
00:20:15.240 --> 00:20:19.440
they've both wanted before. Yeah,
my prediction because I think it's maybe the

223
00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:23.960
biggest story they've had going and we
know that the winner is going to compete

224
00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:30.000
it all in for the Women's Championship, So I I think Mariah May has

225
00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:34.240
a shot. I would look it
set up an interesting match and it's a

226
00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:38.000
good way to showcase Mariah May is
a threat. Like, yeah, I

227
00:20:38.279 --> 00:20:45.240
think that could be a really cool
outcome. Yeah, but you're saying go

228
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:51.880
ahead. I can see. Remember
there are some younger folks who have potentially

229
00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:56.839
able to come back because reports are
that Megan Bain is ready to come up

230
00:20:56.880 --> 00:21:00.240
and they're gonna get her a heel
Gammick. There could be someone from Startingdom

231
00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:03.319
that comes over for a little bit, so I can see that. I

232
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:10.119
love to give Megan Vain some experience
and this and actually get her to win

233
00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:14.759
a match or two. But if
I'm booking at I would look it as

234
00:21:15.119 --> 00:21:22.279
this is a perfect way for Mariah
May two, drive Tony Thorm a little

235
00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:29.319
bit crazy and possibly her get close
to it as well. Well. That

236
00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:33.400
that's going to depend on what happens
if Forbidden Door, because they have the

237
00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:38.400
opportunity there to start the whole to
begin the feud between Tony Storm and Mariah

238
00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:44.839
May. But because you see,
that's the whole problem with that whole tournament.

239
00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:48.480
If let's say Tony loses it Forbidden
Door, are they gonna leave her

240
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:52.799
spot to have a chance at rematch
at all? In I'd love to see

241
00:21:52.839 --> 00:21:59.680
Mariah May or even Scott Blue when
that on the women's side, because I

242
00:21:59.720 --> 00:22:03.720
mean that would be amazing. On
the men's side, I look for somebody

243
00:22:03.920 --> 00:22:10.160
like, uh, one of the
younger guys that hasn't had a shot yet.

244
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:17.119
Maybe Daniel Garcia would be a great
win. Mm hmm. But Daniel

245
00:22:17.119 --> 00:22:22.680
Garcia versus Swerve or whoever's the men's
champion and that as the main event of

246
00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:30.359
Wembley Stadium, that seems a little
yeah, black and I love Daniel Garcia,

247
00:22:30.519 --> 00:22:33.680
but that's a tough s. Sorry, I don't know on the men's

248
00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:41.359
side, who I would honestly put
that can match match it and make it

249
00:22:41.559 --> 00:22:47.799
like this big thing, because right
now there's so many people on that side

250
00:22:47.839 --> 00:22:52.200
that I don't want to see Mocksley
versus you know, it needs to be

251
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:57.559
a two big names that have come
up and done the thing, because there's

252
00:22:57.599 --> 00:23:03.319
so many big Manvin has already who
who contential would do it, But I

253
00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:08.680
want to see all in the electric
and someone who can match him move or

254
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:12.480
move and just go crazy with it
because a lot of people want Osprey just

255
00:23:12.519 --> 00:23:18.279
for because it's hometown guy. But
it doesn't need to be. Yeah,

256
00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:22.519
how it is way in the future, you know, compared to Forbidden Door.

257
00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:26.359
Want to look, here's the thing. Okay, we know we are

258
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:30.359
going to know tomorrow night who's going
to be challenging strickling at Forbidden Door.

259
00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:36.799
And they've already said that there's going
to be international champions or international wrestlers in

260
00:23:36.839 --> 00:23:41.759
this Forbidden Door because you know,
Gauntlet match tomorrow night. So I fully

261
00:23:41.799 --> 00:23:48.119
expected an Internet and international wrestler to
win this match, so that it is

262
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:55.319
a Forbidden Door, true forbid door
match at Forbidden Door. Here's one of

263
00:23:55.359 --> 00:23:57.759
the concerns I have is that I
don't know how many people are going to

264
00:23:57.839 --> 00:24:03.920
be in this match tomorrow night that
Forbidden Door got because you know, Gauntlet.

265
00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:07.799
But I hope that it's not some
of the same guys that are in

266
00:24:07.920 --> 00:24:14.400
the Owen Heart Cup. And I
also hope that it's not some people that

267
00:24:14.480 --> 00:24:15.880
when you look at them going there, will like, okay, there's the

268
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:18.920
butcher to Blaze. They're going to
be eliminated because you know that they're not

269
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:22.480
going to be going to Forbidden Door, and it probably what may be the

270
00:24:22.519 --> 00:24:26.319
main event in fighting for the aw
Men's Championship, you know what I mean.

271
00:24:26.799 --> 00:24:30.000
So they've got to play it smart, you know, Yeah, they

272
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:33.680
can't, but they can't double up
on the Owen Hard Cup. It's it's

273
00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:40.240
very weird. Well like the Owen
Cart Cup is it's it's going to be

274
00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:45.400
six months, six weeks from now. Uh, it'll it won't start until

275
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:49.720
after Forbidden Door, I assume,
so we'll probably have long forgotten the match

276
00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:56.680
tomorrow night by the time the Owen
Heart started. And yeah, I'm I'm

277
00:24:56.799 --> 00:25:00.559
very intrigued because this is supposed to
be an international match. Theoretically, we're

278
00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:07.720
getting an international opponent for swerve,
I've forbidden door, But yeah, what

279
00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.279
is the what's the mix going to
be? Because yeah, I don't want

280
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:15.960
to see a lot of aw people
in the match. To more, I

281
00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:21.480
want to see as many CML guys, New Japan guys. Uh, maybe

282
00:25:21.480 --> 00:25:27.880
some surprises, right, maybe start
Rob d Dam in there. Yeah,

283
00:25:29.640 --> 00:25:33.200
he's going to be in it.
Honestly, what was that? Mkay?

284
00:25:34.480 --> 00:25:38.079
I wish they would announce who who's
going to be in that match because it

285
00:25:38.119 --> 00:25:41.720
would help me to know who to
look out for and who to research a

286
00:25:41.720 --> 00:25:45.119
little bit figure out who they are. Well, it's kind of a Gauntland

287
00:25:45.119 --> 00:25:48.599
match. Well it's Gotland match,
So it's they're gonna be that tells me

288
00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:53.640
what they're coming out one by one? Right for every two minutes, I

289
00:25:53.640 --> 00:25:56.799
would like to know how many people
that they have scheduled to come into the

290
00:25:56.799 --> 00:26:02.240
bat So yeah, I yes,
it's kind of random because the match can

291
00:26:02.279 --> 00:26:06.960
theoretically based on how they did it
last time, It can end at any

292
00:26:07.079 --> 00:26:11.240
time. It can end after two
guys are in the ring. That's whoever

293
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:14.880
gets the pinfall first, right,
Yeah, so I guess they could keep

294
00:26:14.880 --> 00:26:19.920
on coming out forever. Yeah,
Well you know, look, I mean

295
00:26:21.720 --> 00:26:26.119
that's going to be an interesting batch
tomorrow night, and I hope they don't

296
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:29.720
leave the show with it because I
think it needs to be special, you

297
00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:36.559
know, and I yeah, but
you also have to you know, I

298
00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:41.559
talked about doubling up on the owen
Hart Cup. You know, Alex,

299
00:26:41.599 --> 00:26:44.079
you made a good point that the
owen Hart Cup isn't going to be starting

300
00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:47.759
till maybe after we've forgotten about this
match. But you know what isn't going

301
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:52.839
to be forgotten is who's going to
battle for the interim TNT Championship. So

302
00:26:53.160 --> 00:26:57.720
you Atw's kind of got a little
bit of a it's probably maybe a good

303
00:26:57.759 --> 00:27:00.559
problem, but it's still a problem. They got to figure out what they're

304
00:27:00.559 --> 00:27:07.920
going to do with these belts.
Yeah, so it's very weird. Yeah,

305
00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:11.839
And Tony's go to is a tournament, and now you have sort of

306
00:27:11.839 --> 00:27:17.119
a mini tournament tomorrow night. You
have a tournament starting up in four weeks,

307
00:27:17.160 --> 00:27:21.200
So are you gonna squeeze another tournament
in there? Are you gonna figure

308
00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:26.759
something else out for the the TNT
title. My sleeper pick for tomorrow night,

309
00:27:26.799 --> 00:27:30.880
if he's in it, is going
to be Juice Robinson, you know,

310
00:27:30.039 --> 00:27:36.359
coming back from an injury, and
you know he showed up at at

311
00:27:36.359 --> 00:27:41.279
double or nothing. He looked ready
to go have a lose, right,

312
00:27:42.319 --> 00:27:51.039
I got Jeff Cobb, that's a
good one. Yes, he was in

313
00:27:51.119 --> 00:27:56.160
that match the week before and or
wasn't there one he was in last week

314
00:27:56.279 --> 00:28:00.640
so he looked like, yeah,
so I think it's I think he's going

315
00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:06.880
to be asleep before tomorrow night.
What about the Abril kid he's been talking

316
00:28:06.920 --> 00:28:10.720
trash about. Aw. I don't
know if this is a gimmick or or

317
00:28:10.799 --> 00:28:12.960
not, but I think that would
be very interesting to see. Ah,

318
00:28:14.119 --> 00:28:18.759
yeah, that would be interesting.
Yeah, he's interesting. And the thing

319
00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:22.839
with him is if he shows up
in a w it does make him a

320
00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:32.519
hypocrite, whether that's a problem or
not. But yeah, well, I

321
00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:36.000
mean we'll do a heck of a
lot more tomorrow night. We'll be certainly

322
00:28:36.000 --> 00:28:38.519
talking about it on All YE Talk
tomorrow night. Yeah. Yeah, I

323
00:28:38.519 --> 00:28:41.400
think this is an awesome way to
do it, just having you don't know

324
00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:45.599
who's going to show up. They're
going to have a ton of random guys,

325
00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:49.000
the MLL guys. Hopefully we get
Hetchasarrow. I'm very excited for this

326
00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:52.880
match. Yeah, yeah, so
what do you want to talk about deck

327
00:28:52.920 --> 00:28:59.480
STYLEX. I'm seeing this. I
didn't catch the media scrum, but apparently

328
00:28:59.640 --> 00:29:04.000
Tony con and I know there's been
rumors of women's tag belts, but he

329
00:29:04.079 --> 00:29:11.559
also mentioned mixed gender belts. Yeah. Yeah. The one thing with this

330
00:29:11.759 --> 00:29:15.839
is we did see the breakup of
Willow and Statlander, and that was like

331
00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:21.160
a headline, headliner tag team in
the women's division that we assumed if they

332
00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:23.759
were going to make belts, That's
kind of why they would be one of

333
00:29:23.799 --> 00:29:27.920
the teams competing. So it is
interesting that that team's broken up before any

334
00:29:27.920 --> 00:29:32.839
of this happened. But yeah,
I'm wondering your guys thoughts on having these

335
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:38.039
new belts. Well, first of
all, let's let's address the elephant in

336
00:29:38.119 --> 00:29:45.359
the room. Let's talk about the
mixed gender belt. Does anybody want that's

337
00:29:45.599 --> 00:29:53.519
crazy? What's wrong with the mixed
gender belts? Well, you can't fight

338
00:29:53.559 --> 00:30:07.160
in Oklahoma apparently because they don't women
wait only if only if? Yeah,

339
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:11.519
I guess you can't. Never mind, have they had any mixed ginger matches

340
00:30:12.200 --> 00:30:19.599
except for a couple in a W
Wasn't there? They had one a few

341
00:30:19.640 --> 00:30:23.920
weeks ago. I think it was
like Adam Copeland and Willow versus Yeah,

342
00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:33.160
and Buddy Matthews. Yeah, they've
had a few coward one of them and

343
00:30:33.279 --> 00:30:41.880
uh or, but they've never had
really a man fighting a woman like maybe

344
00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:48.400
they don't do that. Yeah.
To me, it's so convoluted that you

345
00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:52.279
have to tag out in and owl
if you're depending on who's in it,

346
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:57.319
and that for me should be special
matches. I don't want to see that

347
00:30:57.359 --> 00:31:00.799
all the time. I don't think
the only belts. I want to see

348
00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:04.119
the women's tag team to make it
a little more even, to get more

349
00:31:04.119 --> 00:31:07.720
exposure. I don't want to see
mixed at all, you know what,

350
00:31:07.799 --> 00:31:11.559
I I don't want to see it. I was thinking about the women's tag

351
00:31:11.599 --> 00:31:19.240
belts and the way that they're making
Tony Storm a a babyface again. Basically,

352
00:31:21.759 --> 00:31:29.559
could we see Thunderstorm get back together? Mm? So, I mean

353
00:31:30.039 --> 00:31:36.000
hopefully Julia's on her way back.
Juliet Sky Blue, Uh, God only

354
00:31:36.079 --> 00:31:38.799
knows. I would love to see
somebody like Statlander and Megan Baine together,

355
00:31:40.599 --> 00:31:45.720
you know will oh maybe with even
somebody like Mercedes. That would be interesting.

356
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:51.920
Yeah, I can see that,
you know, Ryan Harley, Cameron

357
00:31:52.880 --> 00:31:56.000
Tate Mellow said that she was last
week she said she was two months away

358
00:31:56.000 --> 00:32:00.440
from being cleared, so we could
have Tate Mellow and and a j.

359
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:07.400
The return of kJ Doctors has so
many possibilities, you know, so,

360
00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:15.839
I mean you can't even discount Athena
and Billy Starks. Yeah, and of

361
00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:21.480
course Britt Baker and Jamie Hayter if
they ever show up again in aw you

362
00:32:21.519 --> 00:32:24.039
know. So there's all kinds of
weird things that you can do, you

363
00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:29.720
know, so it could be interesting. But I'm all for the women's belt,

364
00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:32.359
the women's tag belts. I think
that they were necessary a year ago

365
00:32:32.519 --> 00:32:40.400
or more because that's the way you
get women in wrestling matches, not not

366
00:32:40.519 --> 00:32:44.640
in the mixed belts. That just
does not make a lick of sense to

367
00:32:44.680 --> 00:32:49.079
me at all. But the worst
tag belt would be something that I could

368
00:32:49.119 --> 00:32:55.240
get invested in. Ym HM,
Like the mixed belts could be cool if

369
00:32:55.240 --> 00:33:01.000
they actually allowed for intergender competition and
stuff like that, it could be a

370
00:33:01.000 --> 00:33:07.119
whole new network that Yeah. Yeah, Unfortunately, I don't think people really

371
00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:10.799
want to see that, to be
honest with you, I've seen what happened

372
00:33:13.480 --> 00:33:21.559
at Lander versus men's opponents, and
like they can have pretty entertaining competitive matches

373
00:33:21.680 --> 00:33:25.480
and you know, it's never really
been done on TV. But yeah,

374
00:33:25.559 --> 00:33:32.480
but you know, I look at
it and yeah, I'll bring up China

375
00:33:34.240 --> 00:33:39.000
who famously took on men, you
know when during her run in w W

376
00:33:39.200 --> 00:33:45.559
E and then you know, rest
in peace. But you know, the

377
00:33:45.599 --> 00:33:52.920
men that she wrestled simply just to
a man, they've all said that she's

378
00:33:52.960 --> 00:33:59.000
just she was just god, yeah, you know, and it was Jo

379
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:04.720
had an interview I saw. She
said that he said that China was not

380
00:34:05.559 --> 00:34:08.400
that good and he had to carry
the match and stuff. And I just

381
00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:15.079
think it's weird to watch and gender
match. I know that that that I've

382
00:34:15.119 --> 00:34:19.800
seen some some YouTube video that people
and I always just I can't watch.

383
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:22.159
I don't want to watch that.
That's not something that interests me. But

384
00:34:22.800 --> 00:34:28.280
some people do. And more power
to him. But I've seen I've seen

385
00:34:28.360 --> 00:34:32.000
Chris Statlander and inter gender matches.
I've seen Julia Hart inter gender matches,

386
00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:38.159
Billy Billy Starks. There's been several
and it was all indies, and they

387
00:34:38.159 --> 00:34:44.159
were all meaningless. I mean,
you know, yeah, but all indeed,

388
00:34:44.159 --> 00:34:47.039
you gotta have meaningful you gotta have
meaningful matches. Of course, you

389
00:34:47.079 --> 00:34:52.519
know, Nila Rose and Serpentego just
accidentally won the championship that they've never defended

390
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:59.360
still to this day. I believe
they think they wanted before Christmas. It's

391
00:34:58.719 --> 00:35:05.079
the defended championship. But anyway,
Yeah, but to me, it's just

392
00:35:05.119 --> 00:35:09.679
not gonna work, you know,
because, let's face it, not the

393
00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:20.400
men have to hold back because of
wrestling, that's hold back because of what's

394
00:35:20.480 --> 00:35:24.480
considered taboo for the networks, et
cetera, et cetera. You know what

395
00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:31.039
I mean, And it just won't
work. No. If that's the case,

396
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:36.079
if it's an advertising issue, then
yeah, I mean, it's just

397
00:35:36.079 --> 00:35:38.000
not gonna work. I mean,
look at when Britt Baker went to the

398
00:35:38.039 --> 00:35:43.880
aid of Adam Cole that you got
the heck beat out of her. You

399
00:35:43.920 --> 00:35:49.519
know, people lost their ever loving
minds on the Why would you subject yourself

400
00:35:49.519 --> 00:35:53.239
to that again? Because people will
lose their minds on the internet for anything,

401
00:35:55.599 --> 00:36:01.320
you know. Yeah. Yeah,
so that's gonna be interesting. I

402
00:36:01.360 --> 00:36:06.880
just hope that when they do announce, if Tony Kan does announce Women's tag

403
00:36:06.880 --> 00:36:10.639
team belt, that they wait until
they get their roster back because there's a

404
00:36:10.679 --> 00:36:15.960
lot of injuries, there's a lot
of people out speaking of which, and

405
00:36:16.039 --> 00:36:21.280
This is something that we have talked
about before. I wanted to touch on

406
00:36:21.880 --> 00:36:27.840
the sad state of the men's tag
team division because who are the tag team

407
00:36:27.920 --> 00:36:34.880
champions right now? I don't even
know who cares? Did they Did they

408
00:36:34.880 --> 00:36:39.400
defend the championships at double or nothing? No, I don't know when exactly,

409
00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:46.079
haven't yet they haven't, that makes
sense. I mean, you've got

410
00:36:46.119 --> 00:36:51.920
some pretty good I'm a big fan
of top Flight, you know, I

411
00:36:52.239 --> 00:36:57.519
you know, may have been a
thing, but now that's been put on

412
00:36:57.559 --> 00:37:01.960
the House of Black at the Kings
of the Black Throne. Those guys are

413
00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:08.599
good. Yeah, other than you
have tr but it's the same people doing

414
00:37:08.639 --> 00:37:13.320
the same thing over and over again. You only have five people that are

415
00:37:13.480 --> 00:37:17.639
five tag teams that are just interchanging. Yeah. Well because yeah, unfortunately

416
00:37:17.679 --> 00:37:23.960
Acclaimed and Bullet Club Gold or Bang
Bang Gang now they're both kind of mixed

417
00:37:24.039 --> 00:37:29.079
up in the Trios division, same
with like Gates of Agony, which is

418
00:37:29.079 --> 00:37:34.679
now Cage of Agony. Unfortunately,
that dilutes it because I think if you

419
00:37:34.760 --> 00:37:40.880
didn't have that, you'd have like
ten great tag teams. Yeah, We've

420
00:37:40.920 --> 00:37:45.840
said it before on this podcast that
many of us feel like the Trios Division

421
00:37:45.920 --> 00:37:54.639
is knocking back the tag team division, and I still it blows my mind

422
00:37:54.679 --> 00:38:00.000
because I don't know what the fascination
with the trios division is when tag team

423
00:38:00.159 --> 00:38:06.320
divisions have been around since I've been
watching wrestling, and they're important and the

424
00:38:06.360 --> 00:38:13.119
trio's divisions just not. I'm sorry. The novel's a novelty belt, Yeah,

425
00:38:13.159 --> 00:38:16.079
because it's so freaking crazy, everybody
running around. You can't tell who's

426
00:38:16.119 --> 00:38:20.440
in, who's in, who's in
the match, and who's not and it

427
00:38:21.119 --> 00:38:25.400
and for me, it lacks suspense
because tag teams you're always looking for that

428
00:38:25.480 --> 00:38:30.679
hot tag and and you really don't
have that hot tag and that fun of

429
00:38:30.719 --> 00:38:35.800
the suspense of someone else, the
guy who really really really wants in.

430
00:38:36.480 --> 00:38:38.199
You know, you don't have that
because they all seem to be flying everywhere

431
00:38:38.519 --> 00:38:42.920
and it's just too busy. It's
too much of a cluster for me.

432
00:38:44.079 --> 00:38:50.719
That's why I don't like him.
Yeah, I mean, what's if you're

433
00:38:50.719 --> 00:38:55.840
gonna do the tag teams go all
in on the tag teams? Don't don't

434
00:38:57.000 --> 00:39:01.599
they aw can't do what they've been
doing. Tag teams are just have lost.

435
00:39:01.639 --> 00:39:06.239
The tag team belts have no relevance, and we've got a couple of

436
00:39:06.280 --> 00:39:12.119
the greatest tag team tag teams in
wrestling right now, arguably the Young Bucks

437
00:39:12.159 --> 00:39:19.800
and FTR, and they're spitting their
wheels. Yeah, they're way too much.

438
00:39:20.639 --> 00:39:23.280
They had a chance at the Tag
Team Tournament to put some new people

439
00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:29.000
in, but they chose to go
with the Young Bucks and start this this

440
00:39:29.000 --> 00:39:34.400
this elite storyline, which oh the
bad but yeah you had you know,

441
00:39:34.840 --> 00:39:37.639
at the time, a private Party
was hitting it pretty hard and I thought

442
00:39:37.679 --> 00:39:42.639
they could have been There are several
other tag teams that could have done it,

443
00:39:42.679 --> 00:39:46.159
but they are they once again stick
with the tried and true. I

444
00:39:46.159 --> 00:39:49.320
don't know if they have it a
contract or not. It seems like every

445
00:39:49.400 --> 00:39:53.239
year or so, every six months
or so, the Young Bucks have it,

446
00:39:53.320 --> 00:39:58.519
and it's it's to a point where
they have to start making new,

447
00:39:58.639 --> 00:40:01.800
fresh tag teams that can be the
guys, and I don't see them doing

448
00:40:01.840 --> 00:40:08.519
that. But I think the problem
is that they started with the triple teams,

449
00:40:08.599 --> 00:40:14.039
the six men tags because it allowed
them to get more people into the

450
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:19.639
show, and it got to the
point where that was what they were doing

451
00:40:19.679 --> 00:40:23.400
for the most part. But I
believe they need to now that they have

452
00:40:23.519 --> 00:40:29.280
it in a solidified three triple to
three man tag. They need to move

453
00:40:29.360 --> 00:40:34.440
that belt to r OH. Be
done with it. Don't bring it back

454
00:40:34.440 --> 00:40:37.480
to W to the aw main bring
it, keep it on H where it

455
00:40:37.480 --> 00:40:43.239
can be useful. Get back to
the tag teams. The Bucks got them

456
00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:46.119
basically like you said, MK,
it's to start the whole thing with the

457
00:40:46.159 --> 00:40:51.000
EVP, which they needed to do. That was that was how they were

458
00:40:51.000 --> 00:40:57.960
going to start it, and they'll
have them until it stops, probably the

459
00:40:58.039 --> 00:41:00.960
end of the year, whenever they
come to the conclude to that, if

460
00:41:00.320 --> 00:41:05.400
you know, however long they want
this to last. But until they take

461
00:41:05.440 --> 00:41:10.519
away the the the tag that the
trios team belts and put them on ROH

462
00:41:10.599 --> 00:41:15.480
and get them completely off AWTV,
it's always going to be a crutch that

463
00:41:15.519 --> 00:41:19.280
they fall back on because it allows
you to have an extra two guys on

464
00:41:19.320 --> 00:41:23.039
the show, and unfortunately, with
the size of the roster right now,

465
00:41:24.440 --> 00:41:30.119
sometimes that's what they have to do
to get everybody in. Very true.

466
00:41:31.559 --> 00:41:36.360
Yeah, I just think it's unfortunate
because their tag team division Ist has so

467
00:41:36.480 --> 00:41:39.239
much potential, Like in the Lucha
Bros. We didn't even mention them right

468
00:41:39.320 --> 00:41:44.760
well, you forget about that because
they're there's no tag teams. Well,

469
00:41:44.960 --> 00:41:49.039
you have probably about I'm just going
to top off the top of my head,

470
00:41:49.079 --> 00:41:52.559
you probably have about fifteen solid tag
teams in age as boys. Yeah,

471
00:41:52.760 --> 00:41:58.800
yeah, I mean you have fifteen, at least fifteen seriously very good

472
00:41:58.840 --> 00:42:04.679
tag teams. It could be bad
only for it again, you just don't

473
00:42:04.679 --> 00:42:07.599
have time. Sometimes you've got you
know, the ones you've all mentioned.

474
00:42:07.679 --> 00:42:13.199
You've got the I don't remember what
they called himself now because you're Bear Brouns

475
00:42:13.280 --> 00:42:22.440
and his brother Iron Savages, you
got the Infantry, You've got uh right,

476
00:42:22.679 --> 00:42:30.320
righteous, I mean, it's yeah, emotions. I mean there's there,

477
00:42:30.400 --> 00:42:34.559
there's five right there we just mentioned
besides the other six or seven you

478
00:42:34.599 --> 00:42:38.039
mentioned before that. Yeah, I
mean, but they're not taking the time

479
00:42:38.079 --> 00:42:43.800
to do it seriously. Yeah,
and to be honest, to be honest,

480
00:42:43.840 --> 00:42:46.039
the Triple the Triple team should not
have taken a place of that because

481
00:42:46.039 --> 00:42:51.800
it's it's not something that you can't
do at the same time, you know

482
00:42:51.800 --> 00:42:54.199
what I mean, it's not.
But you you wrap up all your best

483
00:42:54.239 --> 00:42:59.679
teams like the ass Boys, the
Acclaim, they just get wrapped up in

484
00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:05.239
this right nonsense, and it's fun. But yeah, I mean, keep

485
00:43:05.239 --> 00:43:07.559
it on a ring of honor and
and make it like a ring of honor

486
00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:12.960
staple. But yeah, it's it's
unfortunate. I mean, you've got you've

487
00:43:13.000 --> 00:43:15.239
got, you've got all these tag
teams that we just mentioned, but there's

488
00:43:15.280 --> 00:43:24.320
only like four main ones on the
rest due to job mm hmm. Well,

489
00:43:24.400 --> 00:43:30.519
Alex, you know you wanted to
talk about, uh the best and

490
00:43:30.639 --> 00:43:34.840
worst of Yeah, I wanted to. I wanted to bring up something that

491
00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:39.639
I think is maybe controversial and probably
get some discussion going. But I was

492
00:43:39.639 --> 00:43:45.039
thinking long and hard about what I
thought was the best match from from Double

493
00:43:45.119 --> 00:43:52.280
or Nothing. I think it was
a good show. It was like an

494
00:43:52.320 --> 00:43:57.920
eight out of ten. Everything was
pretty good. But but we didn't really

495
00:43:57.960 --> 00:44:01.679
get anything like at Dynasty, the
will Osprey Brian Danielson. We didn't get

496
00:44:01.719 --> 00:44:07.079
a match to me that that was
like head over heels, like just blew

497
00:44:07.119 --> 00:44:15.159
me away. But for me,
I think maybe my highlight of Double or

498
00:44:15.239 --> 00:44:22.360
Nothing was the Mercedes Monet versus Willow
Nightingale match. I was really hoping that

499
00:44:22.440 --> 00:44:29.559
we'd get a match where we could
where it felt like the women we're putting

500
00:44:29.639 --> 00:44:31.960
on a match like the same quality
as the men at a pay per view

501
00:44:32.159 --> 00:44:40.000
like it just felt like a high
level match, like super intense, just

502
00:44:40.119 --> 00:44:45.480
everything I was kind of hoping to
see from that match and hoping to see

503
00:44:45.480 --> 00:44:50.559
from Mercedes. I know she looked
a little rusty, especially at the end

504
00:44:50.559 --> 00:44:55.480
when she was doing her finisher to
someone that was probably a little bit too

505
00:44:55.559 --> 00:45:00.960
much weight for her to get up
properly for that. Maybe she needs to

506
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:04.920
have a second finish here like will
Osprey does with the Hidden Blade. But

507
00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:08.360
I thought Mercedes Monet looked really good, and I thought this was probably one

508
00:45:08.360 --> 00:45:14.880
of the best women's matches I can
remember seeing in quite some time on AW

509
00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:19.559
Well, what about do you want
to share your worst moment then too?

510
00:45:20.360 --> 00:45:28.119
Uh? The worst moment for me
was probably I just felt a little bit

511
00:45:28.159 --> 00:45:32.880
disappointed, not really by the anarchy
in the arena match, but I just

512
00:45:34.320 --> 00:45:40.800
was really hoping we had something to
end on like a high note, and

513
00:45:40.880 --> 00:45:45.440
by that I mean like a return
of Hangman Adam Page or just something to

514
00:45:45.480 --> 00:45:51.480
like further that story of the Elite
and bring us some excitement on what to

515
00:45:51.599 --> 00:45:53.840
expect for Dynamite, And we didn't
get it. It felt like it kind

516
00:45:53.880 --> 00:46:00.320
of ended on a lackluster moment,
especially when we had like MGF return earlier

517
00:46:00.360 --> 00:46:05.800
in the night, it felt like
the highs were early and then it kind

518
00:46:05.800 --> 00:46:09.880
of trailed off for me. So
that was my low point. Yeah,

519
00:46:09.920 --> 00:46:14.400
who wants to go next with their
best and worse than the night at double

520
00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:17.119
or nothing. I didn't really have
the best of the night. When it

521
00:46:17.159 --> 00:46:21.760
came to the matches, it just
was, like you said, I like

522
00:46:21.800 --> 00:46:23.000
said, I wouldn't even go with
an eight out of set of seven and

523
00:46:23.039 --> 00:46:29.840
a half because there really wasn't.
You know, they build this as being

524
00:46:29.920 --> 00:46:35.519
the WrestleMania for for a w It's
the main first show that got them started.

525
00:46:35.519 --> 00:46:39.400
It was five year anniversary, and
it just didn't feel like that was

526
00:46:39.400 --> 00:46:45.760
what it was. Everything just sort
of it built, built, built,

527
00:46:45.840 --> 00:46:50.480
built, built, and just kind
of slid down. But I kind of

528
00:46:50.519 --> 00:46:52.719
disagree with the Willow the Willow matches. I think Willow had a great match.

529
00:46:52.800 --> 00:46:57.679
I just was really disappointed in what
mer well, I'm not going to

530
00:46:57.719 --> 00:47:01.679
say disappointed in Mercedes because it's basically
what I expected from her. She wasn't

531
00:47:01.679 --> 00:47:06.920
that impressive to me. She was
extremely slow off the ropes. Damn near

532
00:47:07.039 --> 00:47:09.239
killed Willow with the fine with her
with her finish, I mean that was

533
00:47:09.320 --> 00:47:16.519
bad could have been bad. Yeah. If if I was gonna have to

534
00:47:16.599 --> 00:47:20.559
pick one match that I thought was
the best match of the night, it

535
00:47:20.639 --> 00:47:25.199
was the will Osprey match. But
even that match was almost too long for

536
00:47:25.280 --> 00:47:30.199
me. Yeah, and it wasn't
as good as his other matches. No,

537
00:47:30.360 --> 00:47:35.920
and and and you know I don't. I mean, they almost killed

538
00:47:36.000 --> 00:47:39.079
him in that match. And you
know, we we had talked about how

539
00:47:39.079 --> 00:47:45.960
there's no interference in matches the night
before, you know, the lad on

540
00:47:45.000 --> 00:47:49.920
Thursday, we talked about how that
happened in last week, and it seemed

541
00:47:50.000 --> 00:47:52.800
like every match this week had something, whether it was building the match or

542
00:47:52.840 --> 00:48:00.760
not. So I was, I
was, wasn't even you, You're the

543
00:48:00.800 --> 00:48:05.079
problem is you were right up to
that point. But last then it seemed

544
00:48:05.079 --> 00:48:07.599
like on Sunday they heard our podcast
and way, you know what, we

545
00:48:07.639 --> 00:48:10.440
don't. Let's see what we can
do to change that. So those idiots

546
00:48:10.519 --> 00:48:15.679
wrong. Yeah, I think I
think for me, Dynasty was a much

547
00:48:15.719 --> 00:48:19.960
better pay per view than this.
But MJF, if you would have put

548
00:48:20.079 --> 00:48:24.119
him at the end or before,
if they'd have had that match arrange so

549
00:48:24.159 --> 00:48:27.679
that he could have came out right
before that, it would have made the

550
00:48:27.679 --> 00:48:30.159
show worth watching all the way to
the end, but I just I don't

551
00:48:30.199 --> 00:48:36.000
know, it just wasn't It just
didn't do it for me. Who wants

552
00:48:36.039 --> 00:48:43.480
to go next? I'll say,
Uh, my favorite match had to be

553
00:48:43.599 --> 00:48:52.880
Copeland and Malachi Black. I like
those kinds of matches where they really get

554
00:48:52.920 --> 00:48:58.119
into it and really fight. I
think it's unfortunate that Copeland got hurt,

555
00:48:58.599 --> 00:49:02.599
but it leaves me to wonder what
they're going to do in the House of

556
00:49:02.679 --> 00:49:13.360
Black. And I had two least
favorite things. I hate that Willow lost,

557
00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:22.920
and I did not like the way
anarchy in the arena was because they

558
00:49:22.960 --> 00:49:28.960
turned the music off and there was
so much going on that you couldn't see

559
00:49:29.039 --> 00:49:34.920
everything that was going on. And
I think there was probably a lot of

560
00:49:34.920 --> 00:49:38.639
good wrestling, a lot of good
fighting, and we missed quite a bit

561
00:49:38.719 --> 00:49:49.280
of it. And I'm getting tired
of Darby Allen being a stunt dummy,

562
00:49:49.800 --> 00:49:52.079
like one of those you know,
you know, they're fake in the movies

563
00:49:52.199 --> 00:49:57.360
and they're just thrown all around.
That's what he's starting to remind me of.

564
00:49:58.519 --> 00:50:04.519
And it's getting a little old.
So that's how I yeah that I

565
00:50:04.559 --> 00:50:09.360
made a comment about Darby Allen.
What somebody posted on the aw Found subreddit,

566
00:50:09.760 --> 00:50:12.719
what the hell are they going to
do with Darby Allen? I said,

567
00:50:12.760 --> 00:50:15.480
we should probably get run over by
the aggnlance that they're taking him to

568
00:50:15.480 --> 00:50:20.119
the hospital in. Probably he'll fall
out of the back and go rolling down

569
00:50:20.119 --> 00:50:30.840
the expressway on the gurney. It
is good to be a little bit like

570
00:50:30.960 --> 00:50:35.840
watching a stuntman instead of a wrestler
anymore. Yeah, yeah, so I

571
00:50:36.000 --> 00:50:40.320
like him as a wrestler. I
like what he does, but it's time

572
00:50:40.440 --> 00:50:45.760
to do something a little bit different. So I think he find needs to

573
00:50:45.760 --> 00:50:54.880
find something else to do, or
someone really good much like himself, that

574
00:50:55.000 --> 00:51:00.280
he can really have a long going
feud with where they kind of try to

575
00:51:00.320 --> 00:51:06.840
outdo each other. Right, Yeah, it did seem like maybe he was

576
00:51:06.880 --> 00:51:13.559
wrestling injured well, just like in
a weird way. Even though he got

577
00:51:13.639 --> 00:51:15.639
hit by a bus and he was
hung by his feet and all that,

578
00:51:16.079 --> 00:51:23.039
it did seem like he was not
wrestling wrestling. Yeah right, Yeah.

579
00:51:23.079 --> 00:51:29.920
The blow towards was pretty funny though. He really he kept going. He

580
00:51:29.960 --> 00:51:34.320
didn't just like light Jack Terry on
fire. He kept like trying to keep

581
00:51:34.400 --> 00:51:39.800
light. I know, I thought
that was hysterical. I feel like the

582
00:51:39.840 --> 00:51:45.239
young Bucks, like, what are
you doing? The young books look like

583
00:51:45.280 --> 00:51:53.519
they couldn't believe what was happening,
So who hasn't got yet with their best

584
00:51:53.559 --> 00:51:58.920
and worst? Besides me, I
didn't watch it, so I think you

585
00:52:00.000 --> 00:52:08.920
okay, well my best and worst? My best was I had to give

586
00:52:08.960 --> 00:52:14.639
a shout out to the women here. Did I think that the Willow knight

587
00:52:14.719 --> 00:52:20.440
Gale versus Mercedes Monette was a great
match? It was good, it was

588
00:52:20.480 --> 00:52:25.440
not great. However, I stand
by what I said earlier in the month

589
00:52:27.440 --> 00:52:31.159
that had Julia Hart not got injured
not gotten injured, it would have been

590
00:52:31.559 --> 00:52:36.239
Julia Hart versus Mercedes Money and its
match. I do not I still don't

591
00:52:36.239 --> 00:52:42.880
believe that Willow Nightingale was ever intended
to be the champion. Yet, going

592
00:52:42.920 --> 00:52:46.480
into this match, do you think
do you think Julia Heart could have had

593
00:52:46.519 --> 00:52:52.880
the match that Willow and Mercedes had. I absolutely think that Julia Heart would

594
00:52:52.880 --> 00:52:58.440
have made Mercedes look better because basically, and I don't want to get into

595
00:52:58.480 --> 00:53:02.920
this, but Mercedes is a very
slight woman and Julia Hart is much bigger

596
00:53:02.960 --> 00:53:08.079
than than Mercedes Monet. But Willow
Nightingale is much bigger than Julia Hart,

597
00:53:08.400 --> 00:53:13.199
and that is not a slight against
Willow Nightingale because she's a beautiful woman.

598
00:53:13.599 --> 00:53:17.039
But the thing that I'm saying is
that having a first match in a year

599
00:53:17.280 --> 00:53:23.760
against somebody that is so much bigger
than you, you can't get leverage,

600
00:53:24.280 --> 00:53:28.239
you know. I just think that
the I think the match was intended to

601
00:53:28.280 --> 00:53:31.480
be Julia Hart versus Mercedes Monet because
I think that they would have been able

602
00:53:31.519 --> 00:53:36.159
to work better. And I do
think there would have been a better match

603
00:53:36.599 --> 00:53:42.719
because I think Mercedes would have looked
better and I think Julia would have had

604
00:53:42.920 --> 00:53:47.519
more of the uh, she would
have been able to take better bumps.

605
00:53:50.440 --> 00:53:54.360
I'll just say it that way.
Now, what I was saying, the

606
00:53:54.400 --> 00:54:00.559
women you go to Tony storm and
Serena deeb I thought that that was the

607
00:54:00.599 --> 00:54:06.679
best that Tony Stormers looked to me
in months, to be honest with you.

608
00:54:07.320 --> 00:54:09.760
Uh, Serena Dee was having the
time of her life out there.

609
00:54:09.800 --> 00:54:14.960
She was smiling throughout the entire match, I mean, and I just loved

610
00:54:14.960 --> 00:54:19.079
it for it and she got to
be on the big stage for once,

611
00:54:19.440 --> 00:54:23.079
you know, because she deserves it. And frankly speaking, thunder Rosa and

612
00:54:23.159 --> 00:54:29.360
Dianna Parozzo, which was in the
buy in. I did both of those

613
00:54:29.400 --> 00:54:36.159
matches for me. I thought that
was fantastic match, you know, and

614
00:54:36.320 --> 00:54:38.719
I think that that deserved to be
on the main show. I really do.

615
00:54:39.920 --> 00:54:43.519
As far as the worst match in
the night for me, and I

616
00:54:43.559 --> 00:54:49.480
would call it the worst match,
but the worst, uh most senseless match,

617
00:54:49.480 --> 00:54:52.760
and that's probably the best thing.
Roder Eck Strong versus Well Lostrey by

618
00:54:52.760 --> 00:54:58.440
a mile. That match should have
lasted the ring. The bell should have

619
00:54:58.480 --> 00:55:05.000
rang. Will Ospbury should have just
slapped Roderick Strong across the base. Roderick

620
00:55:05.000 --> 00:55:09.599
should have felt to the ground one
two three when that stupid spot happened where

621
00:55:10.360 --> 00:55:15.800
frankly, I thought will Ospbury got
murdered. I was pissed off, you

622
00:55:15.840 --> 00:55:20.480
know, and that ruined the entire
I didn't want that match to go on.

623
00:55:20.960 --> 00:55:24.960
That match lasted forever, you know, and it shouldn't have. And

624
00:55:25.480 --> 00:55:29.960
it was just awful. It was
just awful to see. I mean,

625
00:55:30.000 --> 00:55:32.320
you knew that will Ospbury was going
to win the match, you know,

626
00:55:32.639 --> 00:55:37.000
but it was just one of those
things. In my opinion, it didn't

627
00:55:37.039 --> 00:55:45.440
matter. Roderick Strong had the match
of his career and will Osprey had the

628
00:55:45.480 --> 00:55:52.280
match of his career and together they
had the match. Upon matches, I

629
00:55:52.280 --> 00:55:55.079
still would have been upset at that
match because there was no reason to have

630
00:55:55.239 --> 00:56:00.800
it other than to put the belt
on will Osprey. It should taken fifteen

631
00:56:00.840 --> 00:56:05.639
seconds, put the belt on him
and go on. Frankly, the thing

632
00:56:05.760 --> 00:56:10.760
lasted so long. I stood to
talk, stood to listen to Adam Cole

633
00:56:10.760 --> 00:56:16.280
and MGF talk a little bit.
Give them ten minutes each because I just

634
00:56:16.280 --> 00:56:20.920
did not want to see that match. I'm sorry, stupid batch, but

635
00:56:21.000 --> 00:56:23.559
they booked it. It was a
stupid batch. They should have just handed

636
00:56:23.559 --> 00:56:27.119
them the belt and said, I
don't want to fight you. You're too

637
00:56:27.159 --> 00:56:32.360
good. Left. That's the way
it felt. So let's move on to

638
00:56:32.719 --> 00:56:38.800
our Dynamite preview. We've already talked
about the Forbidden Door to See Gauntlet,

639
00:56:39.840 --> 00:56:45.960
but let's talk about a couple of
things that I think it's pretty interesting.

640
00:56:45.000 --> 00:56:47.519
Well, first of all, we
were just talking about Willow Knight and Galen

641
00:56:49.000 --> 00:56:55.360
Mercedes Monet. After the match,
Chris Statlander finally did the turn with Stokely

642
00:56:55.440 --> 00:57:00.480
Hathaway. So now Chris Statlander has
now been added to the heel part of

643
00:57:00.599 --> 00:57:08.800
the women's roster that is just growing
and growing and growing. So tomorrow night,

644
00:57:09.679 --> 00:57:15.039
apparently they're going to do a segment
where they ask Chris Statlander, why,

645
00:57:15.800 --> 00:57:22.719
Chris why? What do you think
the reason why is going to be

646
00:57:24.159 --> 00:57:30.840
for the Rock? I just,
you know, I think that she's tired

647
00:57:30.920 --> 00:57:37.280
of living in her shadow. She's
tired of not getting chances that she should.

648
00:57:37.400 --> 00:57:40.440
She should be women's champ h in
that race, at least in that

649
00:57:42.840 --> 00:57:47.639
racket. And I think she's tired
of getting disrespected, and it's time for

650
00:57:47.679 --> 00:57:52.079
her to make a move move.
And plus, you know, this makes

651
00:57:52.119 --> 00:57:55.880
two the best friends who are now
hells. So it makes sense to me

652
00:58:00.119 --> 00:58:02.199
degree she First of all, she
doesn't need it. She doesn't need a

653
00:58:02.239 --> 00:58:07.840
manager or a mouthpiece, So her
whole teaming whistorically makes no sense whatsoever.

654
00:58:09.519 --> 00:58:14.880
Again, there are way too many
heels. She's one of your top women

655
00:58:15.280 --> 00:58:19.400
in division, and she didn't need
to turn heel. I just doesn't make

656
00:58:19.400 --> 00:58:22.199
any sense. If she wants to
blame someone for her being where she's at

657
00:58:22.239 --> 00:58:27.039
and not being somewhere else, it's
her own problem self, because she's the

658
00:58:27.079 --> 00:58:31.159
one that's been friends with these people
and puts everybody else before them before herself.

659
00:58:31.199 --> 00:58:35.519
That's on her. So I just
don't see a reason why you do

660
00:58:35.599 --> 00:58:44.679
that to heels take accountability for their
own actions. But that's the problem.

661
00:58:44.719 --> 00:58:49.000
She's not a heel or she wasn't. Yeah, like we hit that moment

662
00:58:49.199 --> 00:58:54.639
with she confronted Trent right after Trent
turned and then he whispered something to her.

663
00:58:55.239 --> 00:59:02.159
I'm thinking that he whispered like Willows
overshadowing you, exactly like Orange Cassidy's

664
00:59:02.199 --> 00:59:08.480
overshadowing me. And that's gonna kind
of be the reasoning for this. And

665
00:59:08.559 --> 00:59:15.400
I feel like Stokely has been planning
this all along. I think it does

666
00:59:15.480 --> 00:59:21.639
make sense to me, Like I
think Willow is a much better speaker promo

667
00:59:21.800 --> 00:59:28.000
than Statlander is. She's come some
ways, but I don't mind having Stokely

668
00:59:28.039 --> 00:59:31.159
as someone for her to feed off
of and represent her. And he's really

669
00:59:31.199 --> 00:59:37.280
funny, So I think it makes
sense. And I think it could be

670
00:59:37.320 --> 00:59:42.280
really good for Chris Statlander and put
her in like the the main events women's

671
00:59:42.360 --> 00:59:49.960
scene a little bit more. But
yeah, we'll see what happens. What

672
00:59:50.039 --> 00:59:55.599
about you, Dutt, do you
have any pinions on this? Well?

673
00:59:57.679 --> 01:00:07.960
Here is a thought with Ton talking
about intergender belts. Suppose it's Statlander and

674
01:00:07.079 --> 01:00:15.639
Trent being very bad, and they're
going to make a tag team where they're

675
01:00:15.679 --> 01:00:21.519
going to harass everyone else. So
they do it separately, so they're going

676
01:00:21.599 --> 01:00:28.599
to do it together. And that's
what I thought about when Tony was talking

677
01:00:28.639 --> 01:00:35.000
about those belts, was that whispering
in her ear, and you know,

678
01:00:35.719 --> 01:00:42.559
both of them kind of turning against
everyone that they've cared about better than them

679
01:00:42.840 --> 01:00:50.320
for intergender tag teams. So that's
my feeling about it. Only feeling about

680
01:00:50.320 --> 01:00:54.119
it I don't understand. So Alex, I've been introduced the next segment.

681
01:00:54.159 --> 01:00:58.000
I'll let you take the last two
if that's okay with you, Yes,

682
01:00:58.400 --> 01:01:04.239
because I want to talk about That's
favorite painting, the don Callis supper painting

683
01:01:05.000 --> 01:01:08.599
and Tomorrow Night, Don Kallas has
announced that he's going to offer someone a

684
01:01:08.679 --> 01:01:19.679
contract, du duh exactly. So
here is my thoughts on that that's someone's

685
01:01:19.719 --> 01:01:23.000
gonna be Trumperetta, not Orange Cassidy. There's gonna be a big portrayal,

686
01:01:23.480 --> 01:01:32.039
and I think Tomorrow Night you're going
to see Trumperetta and Chris Statlander, who

687
01:01:32.079 --> 01:01:42.000
will betray Stokely Hathoray joined the don
Kallis family. Maybe not Tomorrow Night with

688
01:01:42.199 --> 01:01:45.760
Chris Statlander. But I think eventually, really soon, like by Forbidden Door,

689
01:01:46.239 --> 01:01:51.039
we're going to see Chris Statlander and
the Callous family just want to get

690
01:01:51.079 --> 01:01:55.440
everybody. What do you think about
that? I mean, do you think

691
01:01:55.480 --> 01:02:00.159
that is there? Is the contract
going to be offered to Orange Cassidy?

692
01:02:00.519 --> 01:02:05.000
Why would Don Callous say he's offering
the contract to someone and not I'm more

693
01:02:05.119 --> 01:02:08.519
offering a contract to Orange Cassidy if
he was or if he was off forget

694
01:02:08.559 --> 01:02:19.599
the Worts cast. Yeah, yeah, go ahead, sudden because Don Kellis

695
01:02:19.679 --> 01:02:23.760
isn't an idiot and wants to mess
with everybody. Uh, he knows what.

696
01:02:23.800 --> 01:02:29.880
He knows how to keep the he
knows how to keep it something to

697
01:02:29.920 --> 01:02:35.159
talk about and yeah, and that's
what he's doing. He made it seem

698
01:02:35.280 --> 01:02:38.000
like he's going to back Orange.
I totally agree that he's gonna take Trent.

699
01:02:42.440 --> 01:02:45.079
I don't know, it's it's gonna
be interesting. Is there going to

700
01:02:45.159 --> 01:02:52.199
be a beatdown of Orange Cassidy?
Probably? But is it going to just

701
01:02:52.320 --> 01:02:57.719
be the addition of people tomorrow night
or is it going to be the new

702
01:02:57.800 --> 01:03:04.519
look Callus family. Do you think
we may get somebody subtracted tomorrow night.

703
01:03:05.280 --> 01:03:12.639
I'm thinking that I'm thinking that the
United Empire finally gets away and leaves Callous

704
01:03:12.719 --> 01:03:17.159
tomorrow night. Maybe maybe it's time
for him to do it. Anyway,

705
01:03:17.519 --> 01:03:23.199
I think Forbidden Doors the perfect time
because then you have New Japan guys coming

706
01:03:23.239 --> 01:03:29.239
in. They can support will Osprey, possibly Kyle Fletcher and set up a

707
01:03:29.280 --> 01:03:37.320
match versus the don Kallis family.
Isn't there more of the he's in a

708
01:03:37.360 --> 01:03:43.280
certain group, and then the group
that Sabers in and some others are in

709
01:03:43.840 --> 01:03:54.760
that are kind of with uh in
tmd K. That's also a European group,

710
01:03:54.960 --> 01:04:00.239
but it's completely different than United Empire. Yeah, that's all. See

711
01:04:00.280 --> 01:04:03.239
Open and Ospray are the only three
that are in that I believe. But

712
01:04:03.559 --> 01:04:11.320
in New Japan, there's Jeff Cobb, there's TJ. Perkins, there's Caleb

713
01:04:11.400 --> 01:04:15.960
Newman and Francesco Akira, and there
may be even some other guys. Oh

714
01:04:15.960 --> 01:04:19.360
great, o'con. Yeah, there's
a whole bunch of guys that could come

715
01:04:19.400 --> 01:04:24.880
over. Could you imagine getting all
those guys and actually using that faction,

716
01:04:24.960 --> 01:04:27.480
because see, that's one of the
things I brought up before a while ago.

717
01:04:28.079 --> 01:04:33.519
He has Tony has an issue with
keeping factions that are not just in

718
01:04:33.639 --> 01:04:42.800
aew together. He doesn't always like
use them to the full potential that they

719
01:04:42.840 --> 01:04:49.920
have. Mm hmm. I mean
he did it with the with actually the

720
01:04:49.920 --> 01:04:55.800
best friends, and those guys are
all part of Okada's Actually they are part

721
01:04:55.840 --> 01:05:01.400
of Akarda's faction that they had in
New Japan. Yeah, yeah, so

722
01:05:01.440 --> 01:05:05.679
they were all part of Chaos.
And they actually talked about being part of

723
01:05:05.760 --> 01:05:14.360
Chaos when there was sometime last year
around Forbidden Door, but that's the only

724
01:05:14.440 --> 01:05:16.639
time they ever really mentioned it.
When they had god I can't think of

725
01:05:16.719 --> 01:05:21.760
his name, Bulldog, what's his
name? Yeah, when is she came

726
01:05:21.800 --> 01:05:26.679
over and teamed up with them,
they talked about Chaos, but it was

727
01:05:26.719 --> 01:05:29.440
like for one match and that was
it, and you don't really mention it

728
01:05:29.480 --> 01:05:34.039
after that. So maybe there will
be a yeah that's when Cassidy and Trent

729
01:05:34.159 --> 01:05:40.679
became honorary members or something like that. Yeah, of chaos. I'm just

730
01:05:40.960 --> 01:05:45.239
speaking of Orange cast I don't.
I just hate to see I don't.

731
01:05:45.480 --> 01:05:50.440
I feel like Cassidy is in the
most need of a refresh out of anybody

732
01:05:50.440 --> 01:05:55.559
in that group, and I think
him being with Callous Callous would help him

733
01:05:55.599 --> 01:05:59.719
immensely, because you know, he's
at a point where he's been baby based,

734
01:05:59.760 --> 01:06:05.599
so that, you know, just
another betrayal would be great. It's

735
01:06:05.639 --> 01:06:10.599
kind of like when Steing got betrayed
all the times and stuff. He would

736
01:06:10.639 --> 01:06:15.679
always bounce back, but at some
point you need to change the Cassidy gimmick.

737
01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:19.000
I just, in my opinion,
I think don Kallas can work a

738
01:06:19.039 --> 01:06:24.360
lot better off of him and make
him not necessarily heal, but give him

739
01:06:24.400 --> 01:06:32.800
a darker age. Yeah. I
think it's interesting. I would like to

740
01:06:32.840 --> 01:06:39.440
see Orange Cassidy be a heel,
but I just don't see them actually doing

741
01:06:39.480 --> 01:06:44.559
it. I'm imagining, you know, Orange Cassidy. Maybe he's offered the

742
01:06:44.599 --> 01:06:47.880
contract, he turns it down,
he gets beat down, and it leads

743
01:06:47.920 --> 01:06:53.679
to some other development with the Don
Kyle's family, whether it's Trench joining or

744
01:06:54.159 --> 01:07:00.639
will Osprey stopping the other members from
beating up Orange Cassidy. Uh. But

745
01:07:00.760 --> 01:07:04.199
yeah, I just it'd be cool, But I just cannot picture him actually

746
01:07:04.480 --> 01:07:16.239
being in the don Kallis family.
M Alex, Yeah, I guess.

747
01:07:16.320 --> 01:07:20.320
So if no one has anything else
to say about the painting and the don

748
01:07:20.400 --> 01:07:27.119
Kallis family and what what tomorrow will
hold, I guess we can move on,

749
01:07:27.320 --> 01:07:31.599
to the debut of TV Time.
I don't even know what that means

750
01:07:31.639 --> 01:07:35.159
with the Learning Tree Chris Jericho.
I think it means when he comes on,

751
01:07:35.239 --> 01:07:41.559
you're supposed to change a channel and
see what's on TV. No no,

752
01:07:41.559 --> 01:07:45.000
no, no, no, no
no. This has been long overdue.

753
01:07:45.519 --> 01:07:50.519
Jericho always has a television talk show
wherever he has been, and it's

754
01:07:50.559 --> 01:08:02.440
about time, it's TV Time.
He's like a skinna. He'll do something

755
01:08:02.440 --> 01:08:05.320
like he used to do with the
he he'd have. He'll come out and

756
01:08:05.320 --> 01:08:10.280
he'll come out and he may have, uh some chairs in the ring or

757
01:08:10.280 --> 01:08:12.840
whatever, and I don't I don't. You know it's gonna be something different,

758
01:08:12.840 --> 01:08:18.159
because they're always different. Yeah,
it's gonna be It's gonna be interesting.

759
01:08:18.239 --> 01:08:25.439
It'll be a little five minute talk
session that ends up with him possibly

760
01:08:25.520 --> 01:08:30.319
putting someone's head through something or getting
power bombed or whatever. But it'll be

761
01:08:30.359 --> 01:08:36.600
fun to the head. Uh uh
yeah. I would love that. He's

762
01:08:36.640 --> 01:08:43.640
always done good good talk talk segments. You know. I just love this

763
01:08:43.720 --> 01:08:50.439
gimmick. I think people are slowly
starting to see it finally been berating him

764
01:08:50.439 --> 01:08:54.119
forever. I know some people in
this group still bit and get it,

765
01:08:54.760 --> 01:09:00.479
but uh yeah, I just enjoyed
Jericho right now. He's he's eating it

766
01:09:00.560 --> 01:09:09.680
up and leaning on a hard Yeah, it's delightful. I wonder if he's

767
01:09:09.680 --> 01:09:15.720
gonna use this time to to do
lessons or something, you know, Is

768
01:09:15.760 --> 01:09:19.079
he gonna bring out different guys and
try to teach them, because now he's

769
01:09:19.119 --> 01:09:26.239
with Brian Keith as well as the
big Big Bill. Does he come out

770
01:09:26.279 --> 01:09:30.840
and try to teach them about how
to win matches? Their little tips and

771
01:09:30.880 --> 01:09:40.319
tricks, I don't know, be
interesting the pomps and uh he gets them

772
01:09:40.319 --> 01:09:44.399
all to like sit around him like
it's like a kindergarten class. Yeah.

773
01:09:44.439 --> 01:09:48.399
I mean up until he started doing
this uhree thing, I was totally into

774
01:09:49.359 --> 01:09:56.880
the Chris jerk oh Marmie character.
As soon as he started with the Larning

775
01:09:56.920 --> 01:10:00.960
three totally, I totally lost interest
in it. And and this is literally

776
01:10:01.079 --> 01:10:05.359
going to be the time where I
will probably switch over and see what's going

777
01:10:05.399 --> 01:10:12.680
on in hockey. So yeah,
this is not going to be a ratings

778
01:10:12.760 --> 01:10:18.159
winner for me on my part.
Well, hopefully you're not a Nielsen family

779
01:10:18.239 --> 01:10:24.000
and your own impact anything you I
am. That is why I always turn

780
01:10:24.119 --> 01:10:30.000
off Eddie Kingston because I don't want
to go back ass ready. I don't

781
01:10:30.000 --> 01:10:33.079
know if you're led the publicly disclosed
that you are. You can't, Yes,

782
01:10:33.840 --> 01:10:38.000
you can't, Okay, I am
in my household is a niece Nielsen

783
01:10:38.119 --> 01:10:44.520
household, and we turn the channel
when something's on that we don't want to

784
01:10:44.560 --> 01:10:47.680
so, hey, you know,
thank god, I'm not in the eighteen

785
01:10:47.720 --> 01:10:51.880
to forty nine demographic. The key
demographic is not me. You have the

786
01:10:53.039 --> 01:11:06.239
power. I'm twelve zero. I
guess we have. We have one last

787
01:11:06.439 --> 01:11:13.880
match to talk about. It's w'erv
Strickland versus the Dragon, and by Dragon

788
01:11:14.000 --> 01:11:17.560
I mean Bill Switch formerly Lucasaurus in
a House of the Dragon match. I

789
01:11:17.600 --> 01:11:21.439
don't know if this is a championship
eliminator match, a title match. I

790
01:11:21.720 --> 01:11:31.079
am assuming just nothing match. It's
a grudge match, okay, uh yeah.

791
01:11:31.119 --> 01:11:35.399
It's a little interesting because does this
mean that we're continuing some form of

792
01:11:35.760 --> 01:11:41.840
swerve versus the patriarchy, maybe just
to tide things over until forbidden door.

793
01:11:43.720 --> 01:11:49.119
I wonder which punish meant from the
elite the e VPS for winning and beating

794
01:11:49.159 --> 01:11:58.840
them, but they're gonna yet again
send uh another guy after just this show.

795
01:12:00.000 --> 01:12:01.600
But when you get involved in the
matches, you know, I think

796
01:12:01.640 --> 01:12:06.720
this is more of a retribution for
for Swore to go after people who are

797
01:12:06.800 --> 01:12:14.000
within the patriarchy because he's he's fought
everybody except Mama Wayane so far, so

798
01:12:14.840 --> 01:12:24.600
might as well. I would like
to see that match sort versus Mama Wayne,

799
01:12:25.000 --> 01:12:29.520
if we're talking inter gender matches.
He's pretty big. He's probably got

800
01:12:29.560 --> 01:12:33.840
a few inches on s. Yeah, I think this should be an interesting

801
01:12:33.960 --> 01:12:38.000
match. Don't get me wrong.
I mean, I mean, I'm not

802
01:12:38.119 --> 01:12:42.840
looking for I can't call him kill
Switch. I'm not looking for Lucasaurus to

803
01:12:43.840 --> 01:12:49.479
win this match, but it should
be a fairly entertaining match, especially if

804
01:12:49.520 --> 01:12:58.399
they have Christian and Nick Wayne and
Mama Wayne and stairs and all kinds of

805
01:12:58.439 --> 01:13:05.479
stuff out there. Low blow glore. Yeah, you know, hockey sticks

806
01:13:08.119 --> 01:13:15.079
get hit by a Kia, spiky
shoes up dragon the forums. So you

807
01:13:15.199 --> 01:13:20.359
gotta gotta do some advertising. So
just have where we get run over by

808
01:13:20.359 --> 01:13:27.319
a Kia just before it hits where
Darby Allen will dive in front of the

809
01:13:27.359 --> 01:13:32.880
car so he gets hit first.
Have a zamboni in there too, run

810
01:13:33.359 --> 01:13:39.359
into the sand and get hit.
That's what Samyabar is known for, getting

811
01:13:39.439 --> 01:13:47.720
hit by vehicles. Oh yeah.
Yeah. Jeez, well, does anybody

812
01:13:47.840 --> 01:13:56.079
have like kill switch in this match
when he's in the match, But is

813
01:13:56.119 --> 01:13:58.920
he gonna win it? I don't
know, maybe we can call it Brene

814
01:13:59.359 --> 01:14:08.359
ask him, Yeah, kill Switch
is gonna win because he has to win

815
01:14:08.479 --> 01:14:13.000
because it's his time and it's not
for the title, So give him a

816
01:14:13.079 --> 01:14:28.119
chance. Oh God, kilosaurs kill
Asaurus or to switch to switch? Okay,

817
01:14:29.399 --> 01:14:34.399
just a good weird The one question
that we did not bring up that

818
01:14:34.640 --> 01:14:39.960
they kind of left in the air
after the show on Sunday was where did

819
01:14:39.960 --> 01:14:45.319
the EVPs go from here? Oh
that's a good question. I mean they

820
01:14:45.399 --> 01:14:49.439
didn't. They won, They did
what they wanted to do, but then

821
01:14:49.479 --> 01:14:57.399
they just kind of left it with
no clear path ahead. Yeah. It's

822
01:14:57.520 --> 01:15:02.199
interesting because, like, really the
one person that they've been feuding with outside

823
01:15:02.279 --> 01:15:10.640
of FTR and Danielson has kind of
been Swerve. It's hard to see how

824
01:15:10.720 --> 01:15:15.840
that lines up with Forbidden Door coming. But maybe maybe that opens the path

825
01:15:15.960 --> 01:15:21.000
for ye like a Gabe kid to
be directed by the Elite to kill Swear

826
01:15:21.119 --> 01:15:26.680
and take him out. Yeah that's
a good idea. I mean I can

827
01:15:26.720 --> 01:15:30.840
see m JF getting involved because he
you know, he got that brand new

828
01:15:30.920 --> 01:15:35.279
tattoo, and he said, he's
uh all in for a W and he's

829
01:15:35.800 --> 01:15:42.960
he's the face just alongside Swore,
you know, swerve offspray and then together.

830
01:15:43.119 --> 01:15:46.960
I really think all the face of
the a W and m j F

831
01:15:47.039 --> 01:15:54.239
and Swerve together would be a pretty
cool combination. I think, how about

832
01:15:54.279 --> 01:15:58.000
that. The thing is that that
tattoo was gorgeous, not to Keshta gorgeous,

833
01:15:58.039 --> 01:16:08.000
but gorgeous. I think Secsta Gordon
the day to Kestia's birthday is it.

834
01:16:08.880 --> 01:16:15.800
I think it is. I hope
somebody sent up a Citabon. Oh

835
01:16:15.000 --> 01:16:25.079
man, Well, I don't think
he got kicked out. It's just that,

836
01:16:25.359 --> 01:16:27.119
you know, he ate it way
too much. I mean, when

837
01:16:27.159 --> 01:16:30.640
he came to America full time,
it was like he looked out his Twitter

838
01:16:30.640 --> 01:16:34.239
and it was like nobody, no
winners of Citabon and Seattle were wherever town

839
01:16:34.319 --> 01:16:39.520
that they were in. It was
hysterical. It's all he wanted was Citabon.

840
01:16:40.359 --> 01:16:45.239
When he turned heels, Cinnabon banned
him, remember, and they put

841
01:16:45.319 --> 01:16:54.279
his picture up in the windows.
Press passed wow. Yeah, yeah,

842
01:16:54.439 --> 01:17:02.479
so he's he's banned from Cinnabon's I
could see that as a bit on being

843
01:17:02.560 --> 01:17:08.479
the elite. Oh my god,
started him in the car outside of the

844
01:17:08.520 --> 01:17:11.800
local cente boss and the someone in
to get him something and bring it out

845
01:17:13.359 --> 01:17:17.239
the window. Do we need to
get exposure? We need MG have to

846
01:17:17.279 --> 01:17:24.119
be the host of Saturday Night Saturday
Night Live. You would be great,

847
01:17:24.319 --> 01:17:32.399
Yeah, censored show. What's what's
musical guests? Will Osprey? Yeah?

848
01:17:33.680 --> 01:17:40.640
Uh, what's the playing the recorder? There you go, what's the what's

849
01:17:40.680 --> 01:17:46.720
the name of oh ship but the
Blades or Butcher's band? That could be

850
01:17:46.880 --> 01:17:53.399
musical guests there you go? Or
Brodie or something like that. Or they

851
01:17:53.800 --> 01:17:59.880
could combine Bertie King, Bertie King's, the Butchers and Jericho's put them all

852
01:17:59.880 --> 01:18:12.079
together and make a It'll be uh
with the learning turn and call himself.

853
01:18:14.560 --> 01:18:19.840
There you go. Well, well, anyway, that's gonna be the show.

854
01:18:20.279 --> 01:18:25.520
That's ignition for tonight. We'll be
back tomorrow night. With all the

855
01:18:25.680 --> 01:18:28.119
talk. I have a feeling we
gonna have a lot to talk about tomorrow

856
01:18:28.199 --> 01:18:32.439
night, and I think it's gonna
be a pretty fun show. Regardless of

857
01:18:32.560 --> 01:18:39.560
what Chris Jericho tries to say.
That'll be the highlight. Why is that?

858
01:18:40.079 --> 01:18:45.319
Why you know? I'm just looking
forward to see if there's somebody new

859
01:18:45.359 --> 01:18:51.960
one painting. It's gonna be something. And Alex we may get to see

860
01:18:53.000 --> 01:18:57.560
at Sarah tomorrow night too. Yeah, that would be awesome. Oh god,

861
01:18:57.640 --> 01:19:00.880
we'll just talk about that for an
hour to Yeah, we'll talk about

862
01:19:00.880 --> 01:19:12.119
that. You know, that'll be
moist anyway. Anyway, thanks for listening,
