1
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,240
It's Tuesday. You know what that
means. It's time for ignition with the

2
00:00:12,279 --> 00:00:20,480
aw Fanhub podcast. Team got a
lead into Double or Nothing with tomorrow night's

3
00:00:20,559 --> 00:00:24,079
Dynamite. Boy. It's just like
everybody just go out there. It's like

4
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:28,519
it's just a pack card. So
we're gonna talk about Dynamite, but first

5
00:00:28,519 --> 00:00:31,480
we're going to talk about something else. But before we get into that,

6
00:00:31,879 --> 00:00:36,439
let me introduce myself. This is
Kelson and this is Alex and yeah,

7
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,920
tonight, we don't have a lot
of news to talk about since we last

8
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:49,000
had a last podcast. One thing
worth mentioning is we had a Eddie Kingston

9
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:55,039
lost his last of his three titles, last of the Triple Crown to Gabe

10
00:00:55,119 --> 00:01:00,520
Kid the New Japan Show on Saturday. I haven't seen the match. I

11
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:07,000
know after the match happened. We
had a beat down by the Young Bucks.

12
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,879
They showed up on the New Japan
Show Young Bucks and Jack Perry.

13
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:15,719
They attacked Eddie Kingston after the match. And now we've found out that he

14
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,439
has an actual leg injury which is
going to keep him out of Double or

15
00:01:19,519 --> 00:01:25,680
Nothing. Maybe they haven't confirmed that
yet, Okay, it's not confirmed.

16
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,760
They got their finger aw has their
fingers crossed, that'll be able to perform

17
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:34,760
it double or nothing. That's the
last I read. Okay, interesting because

18
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,879
that's coming up in the next you
know, under two weeks now, yeah,

19
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:44,159
two weeks. Yeah. So if
it's a legitimate injury, you would

20
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,680
think, I mean, if I
just sprained my ankle, maybe I'd be

21
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,640
okay to come back in two weeks. But if it was a real,

22
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,760
real injury, then I can only
assume he wouldn't be good to go.

23
00:01:59,439 --> 00:02:04,079
Well, yeah, probably. Towards
the end of the match, Gabe kid

24
00:02:04,719 --> 00:02:09,599
Uh did a souplex through a table
on Eddie Kingston from the ring apron onto

25
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:14,800
the floor, which of course the
table was on the floor opened up and

26
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,800
he went and when Eddie Kingston went
through it, he kind of like immediately

27
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,840
clutched at his leg as soon as
as soon as the spot was over.

28
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:28,000
You could see that spot on Twitter
X. You can, you know,

29
00:02:28,039 --> 00:02:31,159
look up Eddie Kingston injury and then
you'll see the video of it. It's

30
00:02:31,199 --> 00:02:34,960
not a nasty thing. It's more
one of those things. It's not like

31
00:02:35,039 --> 00:02:38,800
it broke or anything like that,
or at least not noticeably, but you

32
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:44,719
could tell that, I mean,
it was a pretty pretty hard hit,

33
00:02:45,159 --> 00:02:51,199
let me put it that way,
and that table disintegrated and but yeah,

34
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,400
it didn't look real good. Yeah, in Eddie's defense, he's had like

35
00:02:55,479 --> 00:03:00,360
a pretty intense run over the last
you know, year, since the Continental

36
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:06,280
Classic, and he's been in New
Japan Wrestling as well at all their big

37
00:03:06,319 --> 00:03:10,639
American shows. So he and he
participated in the g One in Japan.

38
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,400
So he's had a pretty intense schedule
and he's not a spring chicken by any

39
00:03:15,439 --> 00:03:25,080
means. So, you know,
hopefully a lot of the majority of Eddie

40
00:03:25,159 --> 00:03:30,199
Kingston's career has occurred before joining a
w he did. It was kind of

41
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:37,319
like his last opportunity to really make
something of himself, but beyond the indie

42
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:43,800
wrestling. So and then he came
over here. You wouldn't do much over

43
00:03:43,879 --> 00:03:47,599
there. Where Where did you say
he was before? I thought he was

44
00:03:47,599 --> 00:03:54,560
with A Oh maybe yeah, we
traveled. Yeah, as you just said,

45
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,319
Alex, I think he was well
traveled. So, Alex, so

46
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,039
what's this hypothetic? Say, let's
pretend that Eddie Kingston isn't going to be

47
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:06,120
able to perform at a double or
nothing. Do you have anybody in your

48
00:04:06,159 --> 00:04:15,159
mind that maybe able to join,
you know whatever. Yeah, you're gonna

49
00:04:15,159 --> 00:04:17,319
call him Team a W. I
guess he may. I guess that's what

50
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:23,839
they are. Yeah, it's a
little weird because it doesn't feel like they

51
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:30,160
completely represent ae W, especially like
FTR. But the first guy I would

52
00:04:30,319 --> 00:04:34,439
pick, and I kind of had
him penciled in before Eddie Kingston even got

53
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:41,199
announced and before Brian Danielson were announced, was Daniel Garcia because he's had a

54
00:04:41,199 --> 00:04:47,319
lot of relationship with FTR before this. He's a young guy with a lot

55
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,480
of momentum behind him, so I
just thought he would have been an interesting

56
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:57,839
pick. Really, I never he
never even crossed my mind. Alex mm

57
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,680
hmm. Yeah, so that's the
that's my guy. I'm wondering who else

58
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:08,600
some of you guys have audio Claudio, Yeah, because Claudia protect his little

59
00:05:08,639 --> 00:05:13,519
buddy, the he's so worried about. But uh, yeah, Daniel would

60
00:05:13,519 --> 00:05:16,399
be a great, great addition.
But I don't know this. This is

61
00:05:16,439 --> 00:05:19,800
one of those This is one of
those matches where it always seems like somebody

62
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:29,160
gets hurt. So who can they
afford to lose for a while is the

63
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,959
question you might want to ask,
because m M and they could put Eddie

64
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,399
in there and just let him be
in for what five minutes to get hurting

65
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:43,000
and that playoffs where the injury happened
here instead of over there. But who

66
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,839
knows, you know, my son, you know what you just said is

67
00:05:46,879 --> 00:05:49,160
like, okay, so if Eddie
Kingston is in this match and they have

68
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:54,800
to protect him, he could just
like get hit lay on the table for

69
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,160
forty five minutes. Now, I
don't really want to see that. I

70
00:05:58,199 --> 00:06:02,480
want to see somebody actually participate,
you know, yeah, oh yeah,

71
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:14,639
yeah, that's I mean. My
my pick is the Falling Angels Christopher Daniels.

72
00:06:14,959 --> 00:06:19,319
He has history with him because he
took him and Kat him and kaz

73
00:06:19,759 --> 00:06:27,639
uh the Bucks took them out,
and I think you know, and also

74
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,720
the next also tomorrow they have a
match with him or yeah, so you

75
00:06:31,759 --> 00:06:35,959
know at this funny history there.
He he represents aw not only as a

76
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,000
wrestler but as a staff and I'm
sure he's close to Tony. So that's

77
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,680
my choice, but but that'll happen. He's older. But I would love

78
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:48,240
to see just the best moon salt
ever off of a poker ship or something

79
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:54,920
like that, just for old time
sake. Well, okay, do you

80
00:06:54,959 --> 00:06:59,240
think that they tomorrow night on Dynamite. Yeah, do you think there's a

81
00:06:59,319 --> 00:07:02,199
chance that they're gonna just come out
and say Eddie Kingston will participate or Eddie

82
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,399
Kingston will not participate? I thouble
or not thinking? Or do you think

83
00:07:05,399 --> 00:07:10,319
they're gonna probably hold that off for
maybe collision or even next week before they

84
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:15,079
make that decision, you know what
I'm saying. I mean, yeah,

85
00:07:15,199 --> 00:07:19,879
see, I don't understand the reasoning
for Eddie Kingston to be really even in

86
00:07:19,879 --> 00:07:23,639
the match. In my opinion,
I don't think he needs to be in

87
00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:27,319
there, so it's kind of the
price in the first place, but I

88
00:07:27,319 --> 00:07:30,959
think they should if they're gonna make
them move, they need to rip the

89
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,480
band added off and said hey he
was hurt. You know, you could

90
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:43,240
blame it on the young the young
bucks and not and just say you heard

91
00:07:43,319 --> 00:07:48,120
them. That's there's revenge for getting
involved because in the backstage interview and just

92
00:07:48,439 --> 00:07:50,560
use it that way. But but
they're going to do it. They didn't

93
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:56,879
do it soon to keep on building
the story. Yeah, well, you

94
00:07:56,879 --> 00:08:03,399
know what, that is probably the
biggest Eddie Kingston here so net I mean,

95
00:08:03,399 --> 00:08:07,319
hypothetically speaking, let's just say that
Anythingston is not going to be able

96
00:08:07,319 --> 00:08:11,839
to participate at double or nothing,
Indianna or an arena. Before I give

97
00:08:11,959 --> 00:08:20,720
my pick, i'd like to hear
yours. M M. I was listening

98
00:08:20,759 --> 00:08:24,600
to what everyone else was saying,
and I was really thinking about it,

99
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:33,919
and I think the the obvious choices
would be Hangman or Aboushie, but I

100
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:41,080
don't think it's gonna be one of
them. I think it's I'm more towards

101
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:46,879
what I believe. Alex was saying
that it's more than likely Daniel Garcia and

102
00:08:48,039 --> 00:08:54,279
that, yeah, I think so
after after considering it, I can see

103
00:08:54,360 --> 00:09:01,600
him being in the in that fight, So I think maybe him, and

104
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:05,960
it'll be a nice surprise. Well, I have a very interesting pick for

105
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,519
you, because, as one of
the guys said earlier, you don't want

106
00:09:09,519 --> 00:09:11,759
to make a risk. I'm gonna
go with the non roster wrestler. You

107
00:09:11,799 --> 00:09:20,279
know, a special guest wrestler,
somebody that's uh, somebody that is not

108
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:28,759
on the roster of course, and
that person is the ultimate Warrior. Oh

109
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,200
yeah, the Ultimate Warrior. Yeah, I always dead, I'd always dead.

110
00:09:35,279 --> 00:09:41,399
But yeah, it's still a better
wrestler than Eddie Kingston. Oh so

111
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,759
much for last week. I mean, man, that was just like,

112
00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:56,639
wow, you never know with me, you never know po I mean,

113
00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:01,679
look as I posted on the a
w fan ub sub at it when I

114
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,480
posted about Eddie Kingston, you know, and being in this is actually serious.

115
00:10:05,919 --> 00:10:09,240
Whether you like a wrestler, you
don't like a wrestler, You hate

116
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,559
to see a wrestler get injured,
oh yeah, you know you hate to

117
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:20,080
see it. Honestly and sincerely,
I hope that Eddie is not hurt to

118
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,480
where he can't perform. But if
he can't perform, I hope he has

119
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,360
a speedy recovery. That's all I
can say about that. And that's sincere.

120
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,240
That really is sincere. I just
figured out who they need to put

121
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:41,360
in there. Oh yeah, who
Britt Baker again, a better repectico you

122
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:46,399
know, definitely not could be an
interesting choice. You can decorate the ring

123
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:54,879
with his uh streamers and start the
party, right. Yeah, It's gonna

124
00:10:54,919 --> 00:10:56,919
be interesting to see who they bring
in, you know, because I have

125
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,000
a feeling, unfortunately, and I
do mean this sincerely, I'm a feeling

126
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:05,120
unfortunately. Even if Eddie Kingston said
eighty percent, they're not going to let

127
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,120
him go in there. I really
don't think they are, because why risk

128
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,919
you know, again, as I
said last week, when he goes out

129
00:11:13,919 --> 00:11:18,799
there, the crowd is into it. He's definitely a crowd favorite, so

130
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:26,600
why risk him going in there and
going from eighty to forty. It just

131
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:30,840
doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Yeah, Like, another realistic option

132
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:35,080
I could see is Eddie Kingston coming
out and announcing Mark Brisco taking his spot,

133
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:41,639
because they have that buddy buddy relationship
and he's kind of reminds me of

134
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:50,639
Eddie Kingston just in terms of like
that bb face guy that's pro ew Eddie

135
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,320
Kingston does have better teeth mm hm, you know, and I guess Mark

136
00:11:54,360 --> 00:12:05,559
brisk goes arguably a better wrestler arguably
depends on well. The one thing about

137
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,559
this match though, this isn't a
wrestling match. This is a brawl.

138
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,559
So in Brisco can brawl, and
I love it. He's a great brawler

139
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,919
too. That's the only thing that's
probably that I had took exception with your

140
00:12:20,039 --> 00:12:24,799
pick Alex of Daniel Garcia. In
a regular resting match, Daniel Garcia makes

141
00:12:24,799 --> 00:12:30,600
perfect sense. But in a brawl, maybe not so much. Yeah,

142
00:12:30,639 --> 00:12:35,679
but in a goofy brawl, there's
lots of opportunities for him to bust out

143
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:41,120
a dance in some weird situation.
So did you see by the way dot

144
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,639
the before we go on to our
next segment where we're going to preview Dynamite,

145
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,720
did you see that last week somebody
actually tried to attack him when he

146
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:54,240
was doing his dance outside the ring. That's unbelievable. I don't know if

147
00:12:54,279 --> 00:12:56,919
he was trying to attack him.
He might have just entering been going into

148
00:12:56,919 --> 00:13:03,039
the ring to also be dance.
The funny part is, I'm not sure

149
00:13:03,039 --> 00:13:05,480
which one it was, but if
you go back and listen to it from

150
00:13:05,759 --> 00:13:13,000
the broadcast, somebody in the was
it Nigel. Somebody said something and you

151
00:13:13,039 --> 00:13:16,399
saw just like a bunch of people
jump in the ring and I'm like,

152
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,559
like, that was kind of odd. That doesn't seem to fit what they're

153
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:24,559
doing. But then you find out
later it's some idiot from the crowd.

154
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:30,720
Yeah, it was funny because he
jumped into the rig and just absolutely sprawled

155
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:35,200
out his face and somebody on the
aw fantom sure it said he had all

156
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,720
the grace at athleticism of a sea
lion. I thought that was just a

157
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:50,840
perfect description of it. Then they
were are crazy. We're gonna ask the

158
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,279
same thing. I'm gonna ask,
what is it with the Canadian fans?

159
00:13:52,279 --> 00:13:58,200
Man? They've been they've been like
you never hear of any issues really up

160
00:13:58,279 --> 00:14:05,919
until the last two shows, and
then you had the dudes ripping on sky

161
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:11,600
Blue and then this dude jumping into
the thing and this, you know,

162
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:16,600
what the hell? That don't make
any sense? Yeah? My only thought

163
00:14:16,879 --> 00:14:20,720
is that both those cities have teams
in the NHL playoffs right now. That's

164
00:14:20,799 --> 00:14:28,960
not altogether common, and they're probably
just really drunk because of it. That

165
00:14:30,159 --> 00:14:39,000
is a really pathetic excuse. It's
it's not slightly the real reason that's that's

166
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:46,759
you know, I just I just
that is actually a really good excuse because

167
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:50,759
but you know, it's just like
what is going on in Canada? And

168
00:14:50,879 --> 00:15:01,279
I don't know what did they put
your timprtons? God anyway, Alex,

169
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,240
let's move on. What do you
want to talk about? We're gonna do

170
00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:07,360
a preview of the Dynamite tomorrow night. What do you want to talk about

171
00:15:07,399 --> 00:15:11,919
first, Buddy? Uh? Yeah, let's lead with Adam Copeland and Malachi

172
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:18,200
Black are gonna have a segment.
Obviously, Adam Copeland has challenged Malachi Black

173
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:24,120
to a steel cage barbed wire match, which is pretty cool. I don't

174
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:28,279
think we've seen that before. Who
knows what their rules are? Is it

175
00:15:28,279 --> 00:15:33,840
an escape the steel cage match or
I hope not? Ye as well,

176
00:15:33,879 --> 00:15:37,799
at least if it is, at
least let's you know, explain the rules

177
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:46,159
before before ten minutes into the match. Mm hmm, yeah absolutely. But

178
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:50,440
yeah, I'm really excited for this. And I really loved the end of

179
00:15:50,919 --> 00:15:56,559
Collision where you had it was like
really subtle. It was Adam Copeland holding

180
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:02,879
on to Kyle O'Reilly's hand a little
bit too long after congratulating him on his

181
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,799
victory, and then Kyler Riley's trying
to pull away and then you see just

182
00:16:07,799 --> 00:16:11,519
a little bit of blood dripping from
edge his mouth. Yeah, that was

183
00:16:11,679 --> 00:16:17,639
a good visual. So Alex,
let me ask you a question though.

184
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:22,600
So let's say we do have Malachi
Black against Adam Copland in the steele kh

185
00:16:22,679 --> 00:16:29,360
barb wire batch and whatever rules that
there are win I mean, right now,

186
00:16:29,519 --> 00:16:30,519
just put you on the spot.
Who wins that? I mean,

187
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,320
who would you like to see win
that? You know, would you like

188
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:41,559
to see Copeland retain or Malachai win. Uh yeah, Adam, Malachi Black

189
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:47,679
has to win that match. To
me, he's just he's not that he's

190
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:52,840
been floundering, but I feel like
he's been in AW for a long time

191
00:16:52,919 --> 00:16:59,480
now. He's held the trios titles, but he hasn't really been the threat

192
00:16:59,559 --> 00:17:03,200
that he early on in his AW
career, and I just I just feel

193
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,119
like, give him something, make
him a big part of the show.

194
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:12,640
And he's a great wrestler, and
I hope he puts on a great match

195
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:18,119
here and it gives him something to
do, carrying that title and maybe having

196
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:22,119
like open house matches for for a
few months. But yeah, it would

197
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:26,599
just be a lot more important for
him and Adam Copeland can move on to

198
00:17:26,759 --> 00:17:30,920
other things afterwards. Like White Christian, I gotta agree with you, because

199
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:37,519
look, would you look at the
House of Black over the last six months,

200
00:17:37,599 --> 00:17:40,880
Julia Hart's been by far the biggest
star in the House Black and she's

201
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,799
out now. They need somebody to
make the House of Black relevant, you

202
00:17:44,839 --> 00:17:48,759
know, and it's Malachi Black.
That's that's my opinion too. Who else

203
00:17:48,799 --> 00:17:52,039
has an opinion on that? You
know? Who should win this match?

204
00:17:52,240 --> 00:18:00,720
I think it should be Maliica he
definitely do he it. It will give

205
00:18:00,839 --> 00:18:03,319
them more. I mean, it's
not like they haven't done anything. They

206
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:07,880
were the Trios tagged, they were
the Trios Champions for a little while,

207
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:17,440
and they've gotten involved in different aspects
of the show. But it's definitely time

208
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:21,119
from Malacca to have a title.
He deserves one. He put He's one

209
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,079
of those guys that comes out,
puts on a hell of a show every

210
00:18:23,079 --> 00:18:26,880
time he comes into the ring,
whether he's winning or losing, and I

211
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,279
think he deserves to get a win
and I think it would be amazing to

212
00:18:30,279 --> 00:18:40,359
see him do that. I agree
he deserves it his time. What about

213
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:47,160
you, MK, Do you have
any opinions on this one? Thank thank

214
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:56,400
you lose it? So Malicha Black, Malachoi Black deserves to, uh basically

215
00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:02,440
had a title. He didn't have
them any single so why not? Right?

216
00:19:03,279 --> 00:19:06,359
Well, you know, just I'm
just gonna go ahead and move on

217
00:19:06,519 --> 00:19:10,039
because there's a lot of stuff going
on on this show tomorrow night. In

218
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:15,440
Dynamite. Another segment that they've announced
is that Roderick Strong and Will Ausprey are

219
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:21,279
going to have a face to face. Now, in my opinion, this

220
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,519
match should be called off because it's
a no contest. I mean, I

221
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:32,640
just have zero interest really in Roderick
Strong as I don't even know what what

222
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:37,960
is it? The International Champion?
Yeah yeah, I mean if Roderick Strong

223
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:42,960
wins this match, why would you
why would you ruin Will Osprey for Roderick

224
00:19:44,039 --> 00:19:47,720
Strong. That's just my opinion,
that's it. I mean, Will Osprey's

225
00:19:48,039 --> 00:19:52,960
the future of aw Roderick Strong is
not. No, he needs to lose.

226
00:19:53,319 --> 00:19:57,640
Roderick Strong needs to lose. They
need to send those guys back to

227
00:19:57,799 --> 00:20:03,000
r O each on a full time
because they bring nothing to the to the

228
00:20:03,079 --> 00:20:07,119
TV. They bring absolutely nothing to
aw TV. Their gimmick is no good.

229
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:12,319
Uh. You know, we saw
Adam Cole return to walking status,

230
00:20:14,079 --> 00:20:18,920
but he's doing nothing and without him, they're just three scrubs that have no

231
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,960
business being on aw TV. You're
taking up time for from guys like everybody

232
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:27,160
else. Well, sad, let
me ask you this had had Adam Cole

233
00:20:27,759 --> 00:20:33,119
not gotten injured and had been revealed
as the devil healthy, do you think

234
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:38,079
the other speed a Kingdom would have
had a better run than they have and

235
00:20:38,519 --> 00:20:47,000
be will they be relevant? Okay, so as a group with Adam Cole

236
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:53,039
active and wrestling and challenging for the
title and everything else. They the group

237
00:20:53,079 --> 00:20:57,119
would have been more relevant. But
I'm sorry, those three just have no

238
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:03,200
business. I mean, they're they're
they're boring. They have not seen anything

239
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:08,839
from the three of them that give
them any like, any kind of merit

240
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:15,799
as to why they're being on TV. I would rather see Eddie Kingston versus

241
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:21,559
anybody instead of them, anybody.
Hell, I'd even like to see Baker

242
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,880
more than them. And you know
how I feel about Britt Baker. For

243
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,839
somebody to don't like Britt Baker,
you've brought her up like that's the second

244
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,599
time already. I know, because
I keep hearing rumors she's coming back soon

245
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:42,079
and you yeah, well you know. I don't think Roddy's that bad,

246
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:47,119
but kay Then and Bennett need to
stay down and bring a bonder. I

247
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:52,000
don't under I don't understand the purpose. This ole stable has gone down the

248
00:21:52,079 --> 00:21:56,240
draint since the beginning, even with
Copeland, I don't sorry, sorry,

249
00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:00,079
even with the wrong Adam Uh,
even with pol I really I really don't

250
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:06,359
think that this seems very good Wardlow, they've made a mockery of Wardlow.

251
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,960
I think he has potential, but
they've done nothing with it. I think

252
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,759
the best bet was would be for
till what would be there, but just

253
00:22:14,759 --> 00:22:19,799
to cut the whole gimmick and just
don't mention them anymore because they they're lost.

254
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:25,480
No one cares. I like roder
Tron, He's bringing something to the

255
00:22:25,519 --> 00:22:30,599
table, but the other three in
that stable just are our charisma vacuums.

256
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,119
I don't want to watch them.
They maye goofy with their Giraffe and next

257
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:38,279
Strong and stuff, but I feel
like at the Pet Project and their Adam

258
00:22:38,319 --> 00:22:42,160
Cole's friends, and that helps a
little bit. But you know they weren't.

259
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:47,599
You know, Undisputed was great in
the other company, but it hasn't

260
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:55,400
transferred to overhere. Yeah, and
you only they only really have roder X

261
00:22:55,480 --> 00:23:00,279
Strong continuing over Like Adam Cole's out
of the picture. There's Kyle Raley's not

262
00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:06,880
part of it, Bobby Fish.
So yeah, Like I I like Roderick

263
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:11,200
Strong. I love him as a
wrestler, and like on Collision, I

264
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:15,160
thought he was a lot of fun
on commentary. I'm sure most people won't

265
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:21,400
agree with me, but I enjoyed
him. I don't mind him yelling and

266
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:26,240
being stupid. I think they missed
an opportunity to have him not part of

267
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:30,480
the Undisputed Kingdom, and he could
have you know, turned baby face when

268
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:34,359
it was revealed that Adam Cole was
the Devil instead of having him along for

269
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:40,079
the ride with that. I think
the whole Undisputed Kingdom thing is a disaster.

270
00:23:41,079 --> 00:23:45,240
It's been a disaster since it was
revealed. They could have gone in

271
00:23:45,279 --> 00:23:49,119
a bunch of different directions than it's
and it's really bad and it hasn't helped

272
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:56,160
anybody. I agree with Mike Bennett
maybe not being great, but I think

273
00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:00,359
Matt Tavin has a lot of potential. But I don't think that's a great

274
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:04,680
tag team and it's not not maybe
ae W quality, But I do like

275
00:24:04,799 --> 00:24:10,400
Roddy, I see potential with Matt
Tavian. I think it's gonna be a

276
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:15,200
really good match, and I think
it's interesting how they're setting up the match

277
00:24:15,279 --> 00:24:22,240
with the you know, Will Osprey
not using the the Haiger Driver ninety one,

278
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,640
but he's gonna start using the storm
Breakers, so there's some cool parts

279
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:32,279
to it. I'm excited for the
match, but I understand the disdained for

280
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:38,680
the Undisputed Kingdom. Not you haven't
spoken yet. I mean for you team

281
00:24:38,759 --> 00:24:42,440
Roderick Stronger. Do you or do
you zone out for the Undisputed Kingdom?

282
00:24:45,839 --> 00:24:48,000
I zone out for all of them. I'm not been a fan of any

283
00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:57,799
of them. So I'm your favorite? Dare you none of them? I

284
00:24:57,799 --> 00:25:06,599
don't like any of them? Wow? Who likes everybody doesn't like the Undisputed

285
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:18,079
Kingdom? Yeah? I am sitting
here beside myself. Well man, well

286
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,599
uh that's surprising, Alex. What
do you want to talk about next?

287
00:25:23,559 --> 00:25:29,359
Uh? Yeah, let's work our
way up the card next week of Hook

288
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:42,960
returning. Okay, so I'm just
being funny. Well, okay, so

289
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,880
he's going to fight with who knows
what he's actually gonna do. Is he

290
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,920
gonna have a match against the JOBB
or is he just going to confront Chris

291
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:56,480
Jericho? Yeah, I don't know. I'm expecting to be pleasantly surprised with

292
00:25:56,599 --> 00:26:02,440
whatever happens here. Uh h.
I'm not like as high on Hook as

293
00:26:02,559 --> 00:26:06,880
most people. I feel like he
has a lot of potential, but I

294
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,480
don't feel like he's like a guy
I love to see on TV. Right

295
00:26:11,599 --> 00:26:15,279
now. I'm more excited for future
Hook than I am for present day Hook.

296
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,640
But I am excited about this Jericho
stuff, so we'll see where it

297
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,480
goes. Well, you know,
I gotta break in here because I'm not

298
00:26:23,519 --> 00:26:27,079
going to say anything about a Hook
specifically, I'm going to say something about

299
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:33,160
Hook's graphics. In the past,
we've seen just everybody else gets their face

300
00:26:33,279 --> 00:26:37,759
off here on the aw's official graphics. Hook a few weeks ago, he

301
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:44,319
got like just the Hook batsignal thing. Today, if you look at the

302
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,960
graphic, and I encourage anybody that's
listening to this, go look at his

303
00:26:48,079 --> 00:26:51,480
graphic. That's not even a picture
of Hook. It's like a really bad

304
00:26:51,599 --> 00:26:55,200
watercolor painting of him. It's really
horrible. It's like, what is it

305
00:26:55,319 --> 00:27:00,279
with AW? Just it's not that
hard to take a picture of somebody painting,

306
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:04,839
you saying. If you zoom in
on the graphic, you could clearly

307
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:10,279
see that it's not a picture of
Hook. It's it's a drawing. Everybody

308
00:27:10,319 --> 00:27:15,279
else has a picture. Hook is
just like a cartoon caricature. It's just

309
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:19,720
the weirdest thing I've ever seen.
But that's my that's my whole spiel about

310
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:26,279
this segment. I honestly, I
think they've missed the boat here with Hook

311
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:30,680
because they he was great when he
didn't talk, came out, did his

312
00:27:30,039 --> 00:27:34,680
did his thing and left. That
was when he was the best. Now

313
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:40,359
they get him doing too much talking. He needs to the way he was

314
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:45,119
when he first started and build on
that some more. That's just my opinion.

315
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:53,039
Totally disagree. He has to change
something. You cannot stay stagnant and

316
00:27:53,279 --> 00:27:59,000
just be has his son. You
can't. He has to have a good

317
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:03,400
feud and I'm not one once younger
boy, he has to grow up.

318
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,640
I mean, I don't I know
people to explain me what is the magnetism

319
00:28:08,079 --> 00:28:15,920
besides Taza's son that Hook has on
fans because yes, he's good at the

320
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,680
judo type of you know, the
throw around stuff like that, but he's

321
00:28:18,799 --> 00:28:22,640
not that great of a wrestler.
And I know he's still young. But

322
00:28:22,079 --> 00:28:26,920
what if you just tell me in
what do you guys see that is great

323
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:33,160
about Hook? And why is he
still loved? First, he doesn't,

324
00:28:33,319 --> 00:28:37,440
he does not. Hook does not
use the fact that he is TAS's son

325
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:42,720
at all. He stayed away from
that entire time and Taz is not interfered

326
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:49,680
in anything or came across as being
where it's because he's my son that he's

327
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:53,839
doing what he's doing. That's not
evident in any way in anything that Hook

328
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,920
has done. Hook's that way.
I think. I think his appeal is

329
00:28:57,079 --> 00:29:02,359
because he has that new nonsense.
He comes out to the ring, he's

330
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:07,160
no nonsense. He comes out,
he does what he does. Younger fans

331
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:11,920
love him, the women think he's
cute. It's just that's just what I

332
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,319
see as it is. And that's
why I say, if he continues,

333
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,759
it seems to me that getting involved
with Jericho on his part has been a

334
00:29:19,839 --> 00:29:27,119
bad thing. I think that's his
goal. I mean, you can only

335
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,240
do so much with a rock.
I mean you can throw it, you

336
00:29:30,319 --> 00:29:34,599
can I mean much you can do. He has to put in the effort

337
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:42,240
and he had, and I think
I don't know. I mean, would

338
00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,759
he be here if it? I
mean, I don't. He just baffles

339
00:29:45,799 --> 00:29:48,920
men. I'm sorry, I don't. I don't get the pill. I

340
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,440
never will. But you know,
being cute for the girls isn't going to

341
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:56,160
get you over. It's going to
be the way you wrestle and the way

342
00:29:56,200 --> 00:30:00,519
you talk. Charisma gets you over. And if he can't talk or you

343
00:30:00,599 --> 00:30:07,279
know, then I don't I don't
see the point in him unless you put

344
00:30:07,319 --> 00:30:11,039
him with someone who can talk and
a manager and then let it be that

345
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:15,160
way like Barack Lesnar and Paul Paul
Hayman or something like that. You can't

346
00:30:15,519 --> 00:30:19,319
have him on his own and not
talk. Well. Look, you know,

347
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:26,400
Sudden, you mentioned that the girls
may think that that Hook is you.

348
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,640
We happen to have a woman here
with us tonight. Net. I

349
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:33,240
mean, look, I am I
am one of those people. You know.

350
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:37,039
Look, I've never really looked at
Hook. Had said, Well,

351
00:30:37,119 --> 00:30:44,359
you know, he's a good looking
guy, but he's not gorgeous like Squsha.

352
00:30:44,960 --> 00:31:00,480
What do you think you Thinksha is
a foid looking woman? But what

353
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:06,039
is your opinion? Hook? Hook? Hook? You people with these one

354
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:15,359
syllable names just try to be nuts. Hook is handsome, but he you

355
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:22,039
know, he's Okay. I know
that my twenty something year old daughter thinks

356
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:26,200
that the sun rises and sets on
Hook. Okay. Yeah, I think

357
00:31:26,279 --> 00:31:33,160
he has the appeal of the young
ladies who are wrestling fans. Okay,

358
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:37,519
but you know, I mean I
think he could do more wrestling wise.

359
00:31:37,759 --> 00:31:41,960
I liked him a lot when he
first debuted, and then he's just kind

360
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:48,759
of fizzled out. He needs to
find something to do. To make him

361
00:31:48,799 --> 00:31:55,480
more interesting. So you're saying that
he probably way I'm understanding. You're saying

362
00:31:55,519 --> 00:31:59,079
that he needs to grow as a
wrestler, you know at Borderer's Repatral.

363
00:32:00,079 --> 00:32:04,240
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's
fine to look good in everything, but

364
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,960
you gotta you know, I like
wrestling too, so you have to get

365
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:14,000
out there and be entertaining. You
can't be all good looking unless you're like

366
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:21,480
Ta Casta, you know, then
that's okay. But yeah, yeah,

367
00:32:21,759 --> 00:32:25,079
like with Hook, now I get
a little bit of a reminder of like

368
00:32:25,319 --> 00:32:31,440
shades of Jack Perry after the Christian
feud when he was a good guy,

369
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:40,319
just kind of feeling like he's missing
something like character wise. Yeah, you

370
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:49,519
know, then it's hard. Yeah, maybe he needs to fight someone and

371
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:55,839
get suspended and come back. You
know, Alex, I know you're gonna

372
00:32:55,839 --> 00:33:01,000
be jealous because I get to Doubtce
the the next segment. And you know,

373
00:33:01,119 --> 00:33:06,680
we have anarchy and the arena,
we have stadium stampedes, we have

374
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:13,279
the ocage barbed wire matches, but
nothing, and I mean nothing. It's

375
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,279
more exciting to aw fans and a
good old contracts me. And we've got

376
00:33:19,079 --> 00:33:23,160
we got Willow Nightingale and Mercedes Monet
at a contract signing, and I'm just

377
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:27,799
gonna come out and say it right
now. I do not give a ship.

378
00:33:29,119 --> 00:33:34,279
Mmm, I'm yeah, I don't. I don't care about the contract

379
00:33:34,359 --> 00:33:40,720
signing. They're they're good. Why
you know, you get out there,

380
00:33:42,079 --> 00:33:46,440
you sign the contract, then you
get into a fight. It's yeah,

381
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:51,039
whatever. Maybe they'll switch it up
a little bit, maybe Willow will sign

382
00:33:51,119 --> 00:33:57,079
the contract in our blood. But
you know what really gets my goat about

383
00:33:57,119 --> 00:34:02,400
this, this is weird. Now. Will Stardom got in contact with Tony

384
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:09,599
Khan and they said that after Forbidden
Door they want to have a match with

385
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:15,079
a w in Japan, and Tony
Kahan apparently said, hey, let's do

386
00:34:15,199 --> 00:34:20,360
it now instead of after Forbidden Door. That's what's actually going to happen.

387
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,159
Will All Nightingale is going to get
on a plane and she's going to Japan

388
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:31,320
and she's going to have a match
against Tamu or tam Nikana Nakano. Now

389
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:39,559
here's the thing, this is my
problem with this. Ti Kano is a

390
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:50,840
much better wrestler with a lot more
experience, and just there's no way that

391
00:34:51,119 --> 00:34:59,840
will All Nightingales should be Nakano,
right, Like she's is on the p

392
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:08,800
w I Women's two fifty. Tanakana
was ranked fifth in the world. Oh

393
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:14,239
hell, you know she's that good. You know, she was just a

394
00:35:15,199 --> 00:35:21,000
just a couple spots behind Julia and
Julia is rear Ripley was one, Julia

395
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,880
was two. I forget who was
three and four, and I apologize for

396
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:28,719
that, and that was tem Ncanna. Now, to be fair, Willow

397
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,760
Nightingale was actually ranked pretty high herself, like eleventh or something like that.

398
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:37,880
Eighth, I'm looking at the list
now, four. I thought it eight.

399
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:42,679
Yeah, and look, well did
not deserve eighth. I'm sorry.

400
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,519
She didn't do much last year to
deserve eighth. You know, she had

401
00:35:45,559 --> 00:35:50,679
a actually she had a pretty long
losing streak last year. But yeah,

402
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,639
I mean, like, you Watchnacano
and you watch Willow Nightingale, and I

403
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:59,320
love Willow Nightingale. Don't get me
wrong. This isn't about any disrespect towards

404
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,239
Willow Knighton. It's just the fact
that Tim mcanno is a damn good wrestler.

405
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:08,440
She's right up there with the best, and she's she's just just having

406
00:36:08,559 --> 00:36:14,719
her lose this match in Japan just
doesn't make any sense to me. Frankly

407
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,440
speaking, what I'd like to see
is Temnacana win this match and then maybe

408
00:36:17,639 --> 00:36:25,239
at at at double or nothing,
No at double or nothing, we have

409
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:30,119
a three way or something like that, or even Forbidden Door or something,

410
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:37,039
because having Tim Ncanna wrestle below Nightingale
makes no sense to me whatsoever, especially

411
00:36:37,159 --> 00:36:40,679
having even if it wasn't this match
with Tim McConnell, she could have been

412
00:36:40,679 --> 00:36:45,159
wrestling a rookie at Startup. Why
in the hell are you gonna this is

413
00:36:45,159 --> 00:36:51,079
the same thing to happen with Eddie
Kingston. Why before, arguably you're one

414
00:36:51,119 --> 00:36:54,760
of your biggest pay per views of
the year, are you sending one of

415
00:36:54,880 --> 00:37:07,400
your champions clear across the world to
wrestle and risk injury and then come back

416
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:12,280
and have to wrestle again the next
week at a pay per view. Yeah,

417
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,480
I'm sorry, I can't. I
can't even drive to the grocery store

418
00:37:15,519 --> 00:37:20,440
without getting exhausted. I can't imagine
traveling in Japan. Yeah, because they've

419
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:24,280
been building up this Mercedes Monete debut
match. She's been basically feuding with Willow

420
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:30,159
Nightingale since she showed up at Big
Business. Yeah, and it's also interesting

421
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:35,960
because, like you said they they
asked if they could have this match,

422
00:37:36,039 --> 00:37:38,519
and then aw said, yeah,
let's do it as soon as possible.

423
00:37:38,639 --> 00:37:45,800
And that to me suggests that they
know that Willow's losing the title after Double

424
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,639
or Nothing, so they have to
do the match now while she still has

425
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:53,039
the title. Yeah. Well,
I'm gonna go ahead and say this too,

426
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,519
Alex And I don't know if you'll
agree with me on this, but

427
00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,840
Actulia that heart back got injured.
I believe have been will over, I

428
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:05,880
mean, Mercedes versus Julia Hard at
Double or Nothing. I really believe that

429
00:38:07,079 --> 00:38:12,440
it feels like, you know,
they they had Mercedes Moneque come out I

430
00:38:12,519 --> 00:38:16,519
think at the very first match to
like help Willow Nightingale fend off Julia Hart.

431
00:38:17,119 --> 00:38:21,000
So I guess you can make the
argument either way, but it does

432
00:38:21,119 --> 00:38:25,199
feel like they've been setting up specifically
this match. Yeah, I was definitely

433
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:30,599
coming, but I think that they
wanted Mercedes to beat Julia and go into

434
00:38:30,039 --> 00:38:36,239
the next match or whatever match with
with Willow as the champion, you know.

435
00:38:36,599 --> 00:38:39,079
So I don't know, it is
kind of weird to give Willow the

436
00:38:39,159 --> 00:38:44,159
belt and then take it off of
her this quickly, like really just four

437
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,280
weeks later, so yeah, yeah, it's weird. I mean, I

438
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:52,920
don't know this. I'm interested in
hearing what you guys feel about this,

439
00:38:52,199 --> 00:38:57,239
not only the contract signing, which
I'm sure everybody is just, you know,

440
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:01,199
on pins and needles waiting for that, but also the whole Willow versus

441
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:07,519
Tabnikano and Japan. Literally what ten
days before or just eight days before the

442
00:39:07,559 --> 00:39:14,800
pay per view pay per views?
On what day the twenty sixth? I

443
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,719
honestly I don't remember. Yeah,
yeah, the twenty sixth, So we're

444
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:22,199
twelve days away from the pay per
view, right, She's going to wrestle

445
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:27,719
her this weekend. She's wrestling her
Saturday. I don't I don't make any

446
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:32,079
sense, you know, with this
being with this being the women's secondary belt,

447
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:37,679
I can understand them taking it off
of Willow in a month's time.

448
00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:42,159
I mean, like, I think, like you said, I like Kelsen.

449
00:39:42,199 --> 00:39:46,719
I think it was supposed to be
Julia because without her being injured,

450
00:39:49,039 --> 00:39:52,880
she didn't she wouldn't have lost that
match. I don't believe, right.

451
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,760
I like Willison, I like Willis
Carry, I like Willow. I don't

452
00:39:55,760 --> 00:40:01,840
think she's a strong enough person to
be that champion. She's to me,

453
00:40:02,039 --> 00:40:07,519
she's got way more down than she
has up. Her bubbly personality is great

454
00:40:07,559 --> 00:40:10,440
and all, but I just I
don't know. It's just one of those

455
00:40:10,519 --> 00:40:16,880
things that are you familiar with tab
the Connor already at start off, I've

456
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:22,480
seen some stuff for her, And
you're absolutely right. And if this was

457
00:40:22,039 --> 00:40:29,280
full on, full on out,
she destroyed, she destroy uh poor Willow

458
00:40:30,199 --> 00:40:32,760
maybe to be fair, to be
fair, this is not a slight against

459
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:36,559
well. She would destroy most of
the women's roster at aid. Oh yeah,

460
00:40:36,679 --> 00:40:38,079
yeah, yeah, you're right.
And and the thing is, it

461
00:40:38,199 --> 00:40:44,440
doesn't make any sense. But the
thing I will say about that is Tony

462
00:40:44,519 --> 00:40:49,119
doesn't have the greatest track record for
doing the right thing when it comes to

463
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:59,400
women's division. I mean, really, he's had some issues. So and

464
00:40:59,679 --> 00:41:02,760
and did they did they specifically ask? That's the simple thing that that that

465
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:07,159
I don't know did they specifically ask? Did it be for that? For

466
00:41:07,559 --> 00:41:13,320
that? Did it be Willow or
was it Wrestle somebody? I believe it

467
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,440
was Wressell somebody They want to do
so why not send? Why not send

468
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:22,559
your best? Start them? Wanted
to have a match after I think before

469
00:41:22,679 --> 00:41:27,039
forbid door after forbidden door in Japan, and Tony said, let's do it

470
00:41:27,159 --> 00:41:34,039
now that's what I read and over
there now, so I send STU,

471
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:40,800
I think this is a good warm
up match or willo before she goes and

472
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:49,320
and faces uh Mercedes. I I
really hope Mercedes Monette does good because right

473
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:53,400
now she can't do the mic very
good. So hopefully she comes out gun

474
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:57,840
the blaze and puts on a good
show. Uh. But we don't know

475
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,480
if she's ready. She had stepped
in the ring, so how are we

476
00:42:00,559 --> 00:42:05,159
going? That's what scared me.
What if she has ringed Russ and is

477
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:13,920
not as good as well she has
been mk Uh Mercedes Monet has been wrestling

478
00:42:14,159 --> 00:42:22,800
our training rather stringently and with Miya
Yamashida from Tokyo Tokyo Joshi Pro Joe Tokyo

479
00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:29,800
Joshi Pro Wrestling. So and me
you is really good as a matter of

480
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:35,000
fact, that she was the one
that beat thunder Rosa in those and that

481
00:42:35,079 --> 00:42:38,440
eliminated eliminator match went thunder Roussa went
to Japan, and then me you came

482
00:42:38,559 --> 00:42:44,559
here to face thunder Roussa went.
Thunder Rossa was the world champion and and

483
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:50,679
eventually lost in d a w ranked
to uh to thunder Rosa me, it

484
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,320
was a very very, very very
good wrestler, and I think that Mercedes

485
00:42:54,360 --> 00:43:00,480
will be ready to double or nothing
to put on a good match. Why

486
00:43:00,599 --> 00:43:07,920
can't we do something like like Willow? Because to me, Willow is good,

487
00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:15,159
but she's she's not as strong as
a lot of the other women's wrestlers.

488
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:21,119
Suppose that there's some kind of switch
and she gets quote unquote injured in

489
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:27,519
this match in Japan, and maybe
stat Lander steps in to fill in her

490
00:43:27,599 --> 00:43:32,519
place and she ends up wrestling Monet. I mean, that will be a

491
00:43:32,599 --> 00:43:37,480
pretty big switch. But that do
you see a problem. How far is

492
00:43:37,559 --> 00:43:45,239
it by playing to Japan? Is
it something like sixteen or eighteen hours you

493
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:50,679
know the West Coast this week?
Yeah, But what I'm saying is you're

494
00:43:50,679 --> 00:43:54,519
flying all the way to Japan wrestling
and match, flying during one of their

495
00:43:54,599 --> 00:44:00,800
bigger shows and startom shows, and
then coming all the way back and then

496
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:06,679
you have to go and do a
a pay per view. I mean that

497
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:10,480
just seems like it's almost unfair to
Willow. Maybe if she gets hurt over

498
00:44:10,559 --> 00:44:15,960
there, she won't have to fly
back and stat Lander will step in and

499
00:44:15,079 --> 00:44:19,920
take her place. Well, she
gets hurt over there, then probably Tabnakana

500
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,760
will have the belt and she will
have to come back and take her place.

501
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,679
Well yeah, yeah, or you
know, is a title match,

502
00:44:28,559 --> 00:44:31,320
but I will say this and of
course is probably just oh it is a

503
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:37,480
title It is absolutely a title match
because Tabnakano you know, of course she

504
00:44:37,519 --> 00:44:42,400
would say this because she's promoting the
match. But Tamna Kano did post saying

505
00:44:43,519 --> 00:44:47,119
you know that she's going to be
the TBS champion and she will be a

506
00:44:47,199 --> 00:44:52,880
forbidden door. But of course any
wrestler would say that she could win it,

507
00:44:53,199 --> 00:44:57,840
and then she could come over here
and russell money. I mean,

508
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:01,719
anything is possible. She needs to
say she'll be the TVs champion and be

509
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:06,400
a double or nothing. Right,
well, well I'm not going to be

510
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:08,119
in America for double or nothing.
Kind of gives away the end result of

511
00:45:08,199 --> 00:45:15,880
the match for the TVs Championship on
Saturday. Yeah yeah, m And now

512
00:45:15,639 --> 00:45:20,760
one last thing to mention, Willow's
had some really really good promos, Like

513
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:27,000
she's been really good. Just to
shout out her promo work, her acting

514
00:45:27,079 --> 00:45:30,199
and stuff like that does put her
on another level compared to some of the

515
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:35,159
other women in aw For me,
yeah. Well, also, did you

516
00:45:35,199 --> 00:45:37,239
see the video of her where she
visited the wrestling Yeah, yeah, that

517
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:42,719
was really that was that. That
was really awesome. So kudos to Willow.

518
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,480
It's just that I just don't think
it's fair that she's got to go

519
00:45:45,519 --> 00:45:47,280
all the way to Japan and back
and then wrestle at the pay per view.

520
00:45:47,599 --> 00:45:52,800
And she's not only just going to
the Japan, she's wrestling Taen Nakano

521
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:57,000
of all people. I mean,
put her in there with something like you

522
00:45:57,079 --> 00:46:01,039
know, Meu Amasaki, a rookie
or somebody doesn't you know, that would

523
00:46:01,079 --> 00:46:10,840
be a believable win, you know, for Willow, I'm sorry say you

524
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:15,639
know, if you put her up
against they're putting her against what the best

525
00:46:15,679 --> 00:46:21,079
they got. Well, and and
what I'm saying is if you put her

526
00:46:21,159 --> 00:46:23,599
up against the rookie, there's a
chance she could get hurt, more of

527
00:46:23,679 --> 00:46:30,199
a chance of her getting hurt than
if she's going against a consummate professional that's

528
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:34,039
on that level they can be you
know, put her over, not have

529
00:46:34,079 --> 00:46:37,440
to worry about getting her hurt and
that kind of thing. So that's one

530
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:40,679
way to look at it. There's
one way to look at it. Something

531
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:45,559
but I will say there's a rookie
in excuse me, right, a rookie

532
00:46:45,599 --> 00:46:51,320
at Stardom is not a rookie in
a W or w W A, but

533
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:55,519
it that way. They're that good. Yeah, okay. And also like

534
00:46:55,679 --> 00:47:00,519
for the start OFM a W relationship, it is kind of weird to send

535
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:05,960
AW wrestler to go there and beat
their best wrestler, one of their main

536
00:47:06,079 --> 00:47:09,239
event people. It is just kind
of funny. Yeah. Well. The

537
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:14,639
other thing about that, Alex is
that Merrigold, the promotion started by former

538
00:47:15,079 --> 00:47:22,800
founder of Stardom. Their first event
is on the twentieth, which I believe

539
00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:30,800
is two days after the Willows.
You don't want somebody from another company coming

540
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:36,920
and beating one of your top stars
and have Marigold. I really do believe

541
00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:42,800
that. I really do believe that
if the partnership between Stardom and AW is

542
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:47,079
that strong, Tam nccatto needs to
win this match. Doesn't make any sense

543
00:47:47,159 --> 00:47:52,039
Otherwise, here's another thing. Who's
in Stardom, who's her biggest rival?

544
00:47:54,159 --> 00:47:59,559
Tam. Stardom is a little bit
different than AW. Startup is very faction

545
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:05,719
being okay, so so like you
would never have like a Claudio versus Eddy

546
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,199
kind of thing there. You would
have more of a blackfull combat club against

547
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:14,159
the elite and its body. Here's
my thing. This may not even be

548
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:19,159
a match. She may go over
there, there may be an attack beforehand.

549
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:22,559
You know, there's a whole bunch
of different things that could happen to

550
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:27,159
keep the belt where it's at and
make it sure that she doesn't lose.

551
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,679
Yeah, they just don't do that
over as Stardom though. Man, they

552
00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:36,679
just don't. I mean, but
what but here's something about stardom that let

553
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,880
me interrupt you here, because there's
one thing that Stardom does that other wrestling

554
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:45,039
promotions do not do. They have
a ton a ton and when I may

555
00:48:45,079 --> 00:48:49,519
say a ton aton, it means
a ton of time on it draws.

556
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:53,480
So it could come down to that
too. Okay, they that's probably what's

557
00:48:53,519 --> 00:49:00,719
gonna happen, leading to leading to
a possible ability of with or without the

558
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:08,599
title or rematch at Forbidden Door.
M hmm. Yeah, time limit is

559
00:49:08,679 --> 00:49:15,599
good. That's what Rick Flair used
to do and w a title. Yeah,

560
00:49:15,039 --> 00:49:19,920
I mean that's an option because they
do quite a bit of title mcbrows

561
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:24,800
there. Mm hmm. Okay,
I think we we've said a lot about

562
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:29,039
this match. We said a lot
more about the It's not even a match.

563
00:49:29,079 --> 00:49:37,239
It's about a contracts love the contract
sign It's it's the highlight of the

564
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:42,719
show. Who's going through the table? We didn't decide that this is This

565
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:47,119
has been ignition. So I'm going
no one goes to the table. I

566
00:49:47,199 --> 00:49:53,760
think Willow will get Mercedes monet on
her shoulders and then Mercedes Mourney will uh

567
00:49:54,360 --> 00:50:00,440
squirm loose and no one will go
for the table. Stokely, Alex,

568
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:07,079
let me ask you this. So
let's say that Willow puts Mercedes through the

569
00:50:07,159 --> 00:50:12,320
table. M m. That means
Mercedes is gonna win at double or nothing.

570
00:50:12,679 --> 00:50:15,199
Advice versa, Mercedes puts Willow through
the table. That means Willow is

571
00:50:15,199 --> 00:50:20,159
gonna win at double or nothing.
Do you agree with that because it's like

572
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:23,320
it's it's that's what happens the reverse
logic. Yeah, yeah, I think

573
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:30,440
that. Yeah, you're you're definitely
right. So if anyone goes through a

574
00:50:30,480 --> 00:50:35,559
table, it'll be Willow. There's
nobody booked telegraph books like Tony Khan.

575
00:50:36,199 --> 00:50:38,519
He does this every time. Let
us go into a match. Tony,

576
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,400
if you're listening to this, and
I know you are, because you're such

577
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:47,199
an a w FT mark. You
know. Listen, give us a match

578
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:53,639
that somewhere on this card where we
don't know the winner before it gets the

579
00:50:54,079 --> 00:51:01,000
gets the match, thank you so
much, you know. But I mean,

580
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:06,039
rest, that's pretty predictable if you
look at it. I've never,

581
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:12,679
you know, very very rarely have
I seen upset. So it's nothing at

582
00:51:12,679 --> 00:51:17,519
a part this. This could be
a very good promo wise, this could

583
00:51:17,559 --> 00:51:22,800
be a very good uh segment,
but uh action WHI. They'll get notsed

584
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:27,280
and I don't see them doing anything
before because they don't want to risk Mercedes

585
00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:34,199
being accidentally hurts nothing, probably because
she hasn't done too much entering. It's

586
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:37,039
been talking, so I wouldn't want
to jeopardize that. But we'll see what

587
00:51:37,159 --> 00:51:39,599
happens. We'll see, we'll see. But I'm saying what I'm saying MK,

588
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:45,159
is that this match Willow versus Mercedes
is one of those matches where going

589
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:49,880
into double or nothing right now,
it's like who's gonna win this match?

590
00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:52,599
It's a toss up. You don't
really know who's gonna win this match,

591
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:55,679
right but they're gonna do something to
telegraph it. That's what I'm worried about.

592
00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:00,280
All right, Alex, what do
you want to talk about? Uh?

593
00:52:00,599 --> 00:52:09,159
Okay, We're getting a very NJPW
focused match with John Moxley and Danielson

594
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:15,880
versus Kyle Fletcher and Jeff Cobb.
The Jeff Cobbs come. I guess who's

595
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:21,400
he replacing here? Oh? Will
Hobbs as the big guy for Don Kyle's

596
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:25,480
family, So him and Kyle Fletcher
were both part of United Empire, so

597
00:52:25,599 --> 00:52:31,360
there's that angle to look out for. And then John Moxley's the new Japan

598
00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:38,159
Champion. Yes, I think there's
some interesting dynamics in this match. I

599
00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:45,480
think definitely Moxley and Danielson are are
going to win. But what I'm wondering

600
00:52:45,599 --> 00:52:50,000
is what are we going to see
Moxley doing at double or nothing? Is

601
00:52:50,039 --> 00:52:52,400
he going to have a match?
Is he going to be involved somehow?

602
00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:58,119
Is he going to defend the new
Japan title? That's a really good question.

603
00:52:58,519 --> 00:53:02,119
Yeah, I wonder too what is
he up to? Maybe that's what

604
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:09,000
was that that gay I said?
He deserves a break every once in a

605
00:53:09,079 --> 00:53:13,239
while. Now, I don't see
route for him in two weeks, but

606
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:16,599
they'll find out for him to do. But he needs a break and because

607
00:53:16,599 --> 00:53:22,719
he's been going full speed. Hmm. I think there's been talks of like

608
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:31,079
Takeshta wanting a shot at the new
Japan title. Yeah, because to catch

609
00:53:31,159 --> 00:53:35,880
this part of the callous family.
And so is this uh Kyle Fletcher Jeff

610
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,960
copp thing is kind of sort of
part of the callous family. So that's

611
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:45,440
the whole thing is it's it's to
revenge the injury that he caused to hobb

612
00:53:45,599 --> 00:53:50,719
That what this whole thing's about.
Yeah, we just saw a video of

613
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:55,039
Hobbes by the way of post surgery
and he's already working out. He's he's

614
00:53:57,000 --> 00:54:00,159
working his upper body, obviously,
but he's already at it. Dude was

615
00:54:00,199 --> 00:54:07,280
probably working out during the third Dream. He's sitting there with the with the

616
00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:09,039
dumbbells working out while they're doing it, and he's like, nah, dout

617
00:54:09,039 --> 00:54:13,000
getting hurt and meet keep going.
Look more power to Hobbs. Because I've

618
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,320
said it before and I'll say it
again. The guy just strikes me as

619
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:16,960
just one hell of a good guy, you know, and you can't help

620
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:21,079
but roof for him. Hobbs.
I know you're listening to this along with

621
00:54:21,159 --> 00:54:23,440
You're probably sitting on the couch with
Tony listening to this, you know,

622
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:31,400
get well soon, good luck.
Has there been anything mentioned about how long

623
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:35,719
he's going to be out for it? He didn't say anything, but he's

624
00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:37,960
he's wrapped up pretty good. It
doesn't look like he's going to be back,

625
00:54:38,079 --> 00:54:42,639
like within the next several months,
just from just looking at it.

626
00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:45,320
I mean, he's not moving,
you know, he's his upper body's fine

627
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:49,159
though, you know so, and
he was working a hell out of it

628
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:52,440
at the gym, That's what this
was. But you know, he wasn't

629
00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:55,239
doing much with his legs. They
purposely did show him hobbling around hobbs the

630
00:54:55,320 --> 00:55:05,159
hobbler. They didn't show it hobbler. Oh god, I know, I'm

631
00:55:05,199 --> 00:55:09,480
so embarrassed. Well do you think
going back? Do we think that,

632
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:14,960
you know? Or are we kind
of seems like those are the talk so

633
00:55:15,079 --> 00:55:17,960
far are pretty much an agreement that
this match is gonna maybe set up something

634
00:55:19,039 --> 00:55:25,559
for John Moxley, maybe something with
Takeshtas for double or nothing. My thing

635
00:55:25,639 --> 00:55:30,119
about the Kallis family has been in
the last few weeks, they really haven't

636
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:37,320
been a family, I mean really
dysfunctal, because usually when you had,

637
00:55:37,519 --> 00:55:44,639
you know, before the Mockley and
Hobbes match. They would come out,

638
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:49,639
they'd beat people up. They haven't
been out to back each other up in

639
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:57,760
a while. I mean on Sunday
on Saturday they had will Or Osprey's getting

640
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:04,760
he got beat up and left in
the ring with the United Kingdom and nobody.

641
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:09,639
Fletcher didn't come out, Nobody came
out. They just let it happen.

642
00:56:10,199 --> 00:56:15,280
And you know, I get the
fact that that they're they're playing the

643
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:22,320
angle where Osprey's gonna leave, but
it's becoming less and less believable that this

644
00:56:22,519 --> 00:56:29,559
is actually a functioning group other than
just callous and whoever he decides it's going

645
00:56:29,639 --> 00:56:31,199
to be his buddy that week,
you know what I mean, Well,

646
00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:36,280
he's doing the Orange Cassidy Trump Baratta
thing. He's not even get that.

647
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:42,760
But what happened to the rest of
his boys? Yeah, you know what

648
00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:45,519
I mean, It just doesn't make
any sense. So it's it's like,

649
00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:50,360
I don't know what happened, But
like a couple of weeks ago, they

650
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:54,320
were getting all this stuff was working
really well for everything, and then it

651
00:56:55,519 --> 00:57:00,960
was like, what did this whole
EVP thing and everything else started to fall

652
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:05,480
apart? They stopped it just seems
to me like they stopped the storylines and

653
00:57:05,639 --> 00:57:08,519
just kind of like everything else crumbled
away and it's just that, which is

654
00:57:08,639 --> 00:57:15,119
kind of scary. Yeah, well, it's kind of weird. How like

655
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:22,480
logically, how is Don Kallas not
involved with the evp's targeting Kenny Omega?

656
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:25,239
You know, like you really think
about it. His whole thing is hating

657
00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:30,239
Kenny Omega, and he's not involved
in them beating up Kenny Omega. So

658
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:36,239
yeah, yeah, I mean maybe
that's they're not They're not just so weird

659
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,559
because you would figure especially when Shane
when Shane Taylor beat him up, isn't

660
00:57:40,559 --> 00:57:45,519
he going to russell Shane Taylor this
week? Yeah, Osprey, I guess

661
00:57:45,559 --> 00:57:50,599
the collision, I think. Yeah, So it'll be interesting to see what

662
00:57:50,719 --> 00:58:00,239
happens. Why I fifty to fifty
match, anyone could win. I know

663
00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:04,199
what you're gonna say, and I
agree. I agree with you. If

664
00:58:04,239 --> 00:58:07,320
Osprey has a stroke in the middle
of the ring, he'll win, the

665
00:58:07,559 --> 00:58:15,760
Taylor will win. Another one of
those groups of people that don't belong on

666
00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:21,480
aw TV. I'm sorry, but
I think what I said. Why was

667
00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:25,639
you've got a pay per view coming
up next week? Why are you having

668
00:58:27,039 --> 00:58:31,880
arguably your biggest star right now wrestle
in a match that means absolutely nothing.

669
00:58:32,239 --> 00:58:36,639
You know, it doesn't make any
sense, It does not make any sense.

670
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:45,440
It's Osprey's side, I guess that. Do you have anything to step

671
00:58:45,679 --> 00:58:47,639
that? Do you have anything to
say about Jeff Cobb and Kyle Fletcher against

672
00:58:47,679 --> 00:58:53,239
John Boxley and Brian Danielson. I
like all of them. I think it's

673
00:58:53,280 --> 00:59:00,039
gonna be really really good match.
I'm excited to see that. That may

674
00:59:00,079 --> 00:59:07,280
be one of my favorites. Really, that's pretty awesome. Yeah, I've

675
00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:10,800
never seen him before. No,
you haven't seen him wrestle. He's been

676
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:15,480
on a a few times, and
he's actually really really good. He's he's

677
00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:20,719
he's a shorter powerhouse. He kind
of reminds me a lot of Rhino with

678
00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:25,559
better agility, very very good comparison. Yeah, So look, I we

679
00:59:25,679 --> 00:59:30,119
have four more matches to go,
so I want to move on because I

680
00:59:30,159 --> 00:59:34,039
want to get to all of them. These four matches, by the way,

681
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:37,880
are part of our throw the rankings
out the window block because none of

682
00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:45,440
them make any goddamn sense at all. Seriously, look at them, like,

683
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:50,119
what the a minute, No,
wait a minute, I see here's

684
00:59:50,199 --> 00:59:58,119
there there. You you're missing the
point. Okay, the the that's just

685
00:59:58,199 --> 01:00:02,760
not the match or yeah, so
let's take let's what we're doing the let's

686
01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:07,239
go in order here, okay,
so let us talk about you know,

687
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:12,320
I'm so happy for myself because not
only did I get to announced, you

688
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:19,119
know, to lead into the contract
signing match, I also got to lead

689
01:00:19,199 --> 01:00:24,800
into Harley Cameron against Tony Storm.
Because Harley Cameron got her ass kicked by

690
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:30,360
Mariah May last week and somehow managed
to get a title shot for this week.

691
01:00:30,559 --> 01:00:34,840
You know, hey, throw to
throw the here, hey throw the

692
01:00:35,079 --> 01:00:38,679
tight the rankings right out the window
because okay, so look, Harley Cameron

693
01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:43,599
is you know, is is uh. She's a character, you know.

694
01:00:44,079 --> 01:00:47,320
I gotta give it to her.
She's she's fun to watch, you know,

695
01:00:47,519 --> 01:00:50,840
because you just never know what's going
to come out of her mouth,

696
01:00:51,599 --> 01:00:54,480
you know. And I like that
because I'm kind of fun to watch too,

697
01:00:54,480 --> 01:00:58,280
because you never know what's going to
come out of my mouth or my

698
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:04,519
other end either. But this match, it's it's being called a grudge match.

699
01:01:04,559 --> 01:01:07,400
I guess that's the only way they
can explain giving Harley Cameron a world

700
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:13,440
title shot. Actually, I don't
know, I don't think. I don't

701
01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:17,159
think it is a world title match. I think yeah, I don't know.

702
01:01:17,599 --> 01:01:28,000
Hates Harley Cameron for because she touched
her child. Yeah, but anyway,

703
01:01:29,159 --> 01:01:31,559
this is gonna look my opinion,
this is going to be an entertaining

704
01:01:31,679 --> 01:01:35,800
match because she got Pony Storm.
You never know what's going to come out

705
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:37,800
of her mouth. Yeah, Harley
Cameron never was gonna come out of her

706
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:43,239
mouth. It's probably gonna be a
squash, but it's gonna probably be you

707
01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:47,159
know, entertaining to say the least. Yeah, yeah, goofy fun.

708
01:01:49,679 --> 01:01:53,199
Also, you're missing that someone in, someone involved in that match will probably

709
01:01:53,239 --> 01:01:57,719
come down. She's a crazy too, never come in her mouth, and

710
01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:04,760
that's Sarah so Ray s a Riah
Ada Patado. But look she's she's funny

711
01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:07,599
to listen to. When you get
three crazy people in the ring, you

712
01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:15,519
get entertainment. So har be on
camera and be on TV to get more

713
01:02:15,599 --> 01:02:21,039
exposure and stuff. Does you deserve
a non title grudge match? You know,

714
01:02:21,639 --> 01:02:28,079
but they're kind of for Tony Storm
to face, so you know,

715
01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:30,880
you know, stuffs right down to
But why, I mean, you've got

716
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:37,119
a double or nothing coming up in
a week, and did basically ten days

717
01:02:37,159 --> 01:02:40,280
from now, you know, or
twelve days from now, whatever it is,

718
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:49,199
and less than two weeks, and
you've got every single champion wrestling or

719
01:02:49,280 --> 01:02:52,760
doing something on Dynamite or in Japan. It just does not make sense to

720
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:57,360
me at all. It's like,
you know, you're playing Russian Roulette with

721
01:02:57,440 --> 01:03:00,320
these wrestlers. You know how to
come out, do a little talkie talkie,

722
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:07,400
slap each other in the face,
don't put them at risk. I

723
01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:12,199
think this is gonna be a lot
of fun. Like, they don't even

724
01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:15,519
need to have a match, just
give them like mics and just let them

725
01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:21,159
take goofy things to each other.
I guess Serenade will come out at the

726
01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:25,960
end in some way to further their
feud for double or nothing, but right,

727
01:03:27,079 --> 01:03:31,320
Oh yeah, yeah, I think
this could be the funnest segment of

728
01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:36,760
the night. For sure. It'll
be the funnest match because you just you

729
01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:39,960
have two blithering idiots in the ring
and probably a couple of blithering idiots outside

730
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:45,599
the ring too. You know,
it's just gonna be fun, poitless but

731
01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:53,880
fun. Yeah. I don't think
anybody really has much more to say about

732
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:55,960
this one. Alex, why didn't
you go on to the next one and

733
01:03:57,079 --> 01:04:02,639
make sure you stay the name right, Yeah, Kazluchika Okada. I think

734
01:04:02,679 --> 01:04:14,039
I said it right, Yeah,
Yeah, I'm excited for this match.

735
01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:21,760
The one thing that worries me is
or Ocada's chest. If Dax really lays

736
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:29,239
in his his his chop, I
don't think. Yeah, I feel bad

737
01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:33,280
for Okada because yeah, he doesn't
deserve that. But yeah, you know,

738
01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:38,800
obviously Okada is gonna win. I
don't think Dax Harwood is going to

739
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:43,480
take the title off Okada. But
this is kind of a you know,

740
01:04:43,559 --> 01:04:47,679
it's like a low key dream match, and I'm excited for it. M

741
01:04:51,719 --> 01:04:58,079
Oh my god, you know.
Yeah, I mean, but where does

742
01:04:58,559 --> 01:05:00,360
would get Howard? Why does Hartwood
get the shot? I don't get it.

743
01:05:00,519 --> 01:05:02,639
Go ahead. That That's all I
have to say. I don't understand

744
01:05:02,679 --> 01:05:10,880
it because of the family. I
mean, if anybody deserves a singles match

745
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:15,360
and to prove that he's not just
a tad wrestler and can and can go.

746
01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:24,679
And he had a good match I
hear against the his nephew and in

747
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:28,960
the room, and he's safe.
He's not gonna hurt Okada. He's not

748
01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:32,360
going to you know, he's gonna
put on a good match and make him

749
01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:36,440
look do we know he's gonna lose? But this, you know, this

750
01:05:36,599 --> 01:05:42,119
is one of those storylines that involved
I know the Elder are gonna get involved.

751
01:05:42,199 --> 01:05:46,079
I'm hoping they don't injure him to
in storyline and keep on playing off

752
01:05:46,119 --> 01:05:49,000
that because I want to see this
match, and I want to see him

753
01:05:49,079 --> 01:05:53,920
go and put on the planet because
he reminds me a little bit of Brett

754
01:05:54,039 --> 01:05:58,360
Hart and his moves and Dispatcher and
the way he goes about himself. So

755
01:05:58,519 --> 01:06:08,639
but he puts on a match and
and can and can keep people saying maybe

756
01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:14,920
it will lead to the revealing of
who replaces Eddie. That's a good point

757
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,519
because by the time this matter,
and I wouldn't be surprised if this is

758
01:06:18,599 --> 01:06:24,719
the main event, even though I
got I think it should be. It

759
01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:28,840
should be because you're gonna have stuff
that's gonna happen afterwards. We already know

760
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:33,360
that this is gonna end up being
You're gonna have the EVPs come out and

761
01:06:33,679 --> 01:06:40,000
possibly even Jungle Boy, so you're
gonna have their all four there, and

762
01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:45,559
you know that's going to bring out
Dash and everybody for that side is going

763
01:06:45,639 --> 01:06:48,159
to come out, but Eddie can't. So maybe that's how they'll reveal who

764
01:06:48,159 --> 01:06:54,400
the fourth guy is going to be
if Eddie can't go. That's a good

765
01:06:54,519 --> 01:06:58,679
thought. It makes more sense to
do it, well, I said.

766
01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:00,119
I want to say it makes more
sense to do it as the main event,

767
01:07:00,239 --> 01:07:04,480
but they don't always do that that
way, so maybe it will be.

768
01:07:04,679 --> 01:07:08,719
But it should be a very interesting
match. But I agree with you

769
01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:15,960
MK, I think it will be
a good match. Oil Boy, anybody

770
01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:19,519
else, I mean, does anybody
else have it? I like that the

771
01:07:19,679 --> 01:07:25,440
idea that this may set up who's
going to replace Eddie? But yeah,

772
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:33,480
I like that. So there's another
tag team match. Yeah, so let's

773
01:07:33,519 --> 01:07:39,360
move on to the other tag team
match. In our next throw of the

774
01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:44,440
rankings out the window, we have
an eliminator match between the Young Bucks and

775
01:07:45,119 --> 01:07:48,239
Christopher Daniels, the Fallen Angel and
Matt Sidell, who hasn't want to match

776
01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:51,960
this just before and I think the
week before the fall of the Berlin Wall.

777
01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:59,679
It's better God's agency. That's the
At this point, I'm like,

778
01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:02,639
has as betside I'll ever want to
match in his life ever, it's just

779
01:08:03,079 --> 01:08:12,079
trying to get ridiculous, but anyway. Uh so, uh, Christopher Christopher

780
01:08:12,159 --> 01:08:15,159
Daniels a betside all are gonna lose, and Uh that's it. That's that's

781
01:08:15,239 --> 01:08:23,039
pretty much all. I gotta say. What else is there? Segment?

782
01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:33,760
Yeah, there's a segment on Collision
where Christopher Daniels did not allow the Young

783
01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:44,159
Bucks to berate him backstage setting up
this match. Yeah. Like Christopher Daniels,

784
01:08:44,399 --> 01:08:47,880
he's uh, he's obviously a legend, like a t NA legend,

785
01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:53,479
ring of honor. He had that
s c U run and and he was

786
01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:56,880
a big part of the beginning of
a w and I missed a lot of

787
01:08:56,960 --> 01:09:01,079
that, to be honest, though
her Daniels is like a legend who I've

788
01:09:01,159 --> 01:09:09,520
never really seen to have a good
match personally or never seen be interesting for

789
01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:13,760
me. I hope they they bring
out like the best of him and they

790
01:09:13,880 --> 01:09:17,600
just have an awesome tag team match
and make me care more about Christopher Daniels

791
01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:23,720
in that sidel as well. But
uh, yeah, like I'm going and

792
01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:30,479
open minded, I don't know what
to expect. Yeah, I'm sorry.

793
01:09:30,760 --> 01:09:40,439
It's gonna build up a lot of
heat against the EVPs because Christopher Daniels is

794
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:48,640
kind of a legend around Seattle and
oh, you know, people people love

795
01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:54,560
to hate him, but he is
very very well known and and respected.

796
01:09:55,520 --> 01:10:01,399
So he's gonna have the crowd behind
him one hundred percent, and it's it's

797
01:10:01,520 --> 01:10:06,640
gonna bring a lot of a lot
of you know, negative if there could

798
01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:14,920
possibly be any more negativity with our
ev e vps at this point. But

799
01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:19,039
yeah, I don't see them winning, but you know, I don't see

800
01:10:19,119 --> 01:10:24,520
Christopher Daniels in good old Matt Sidell
winning, but I think it's gonna be

801
01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:28,920
an overall good Matt. Yeah,
they're a cheat to one of course,

802
01:10:29,399 --> 01:10:34,680
and uh, the Young Bucks are, but I you know, like I

803
01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:39,760
said before, those guys have history. I think that'll be a very good

804
01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:45,479
tag team because they've yelled together,
they've been down the road together a lot.

805
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:50,039
I don't know how close matts Sidell
is with Young Bucks, but Young

806
01:10:50,119 --> 01:10:56,159
Bucks and Daniels are very familiarly together
that they're good friends. And I loved

807
01:10:56,159 --> 01:10:59,239
it. You know, I love
seeing Christopher Daniels because he you know,

808
01:10:59,319 --> 01:11:01,279
he's been there where t and a
Ring of Honor, he was a Ring

809
01:11:01,359 --> 01:11:08,920
of Honor champion, he was a
TNA ex everything excellent. He never won

810
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:12,760
the world I think he won both. Be honest about it, He's been

811
01:11:12,840 --> 01:11:23,039
everywhere. Yeah, let me let
me say this on the aw fan Hub

812
01:11:23,119 --> 01:11:28,159
subreddit and also on the Greatness of
subret Greatness of Wrestling subreddit today I posted

813
01:11:28,359 --> 01:11:34,880
a question asking who was your favorite
Who was your first Who was the first

814
01:11:35,239 --> 01:11:42,079
first wrestler that became your favorite wrestler? Right, And of course you had

815
01:11:42,119 --> 01:11:45,079
a lot of the Hulk Hogans,
and you had a lot of the Edges

816
01:11:45,199 --> 01:11:48,199
or Adam Copland where you had a
lot of the Brian Danielson's and things like

817
01:11:48,319 --> 01:11:53,720
that, but you also had a
couple of believe it or not, Christopher

818
01:11:53,840 --> 01:12:00,279
Daniels. Yeah, so he he
When people were getting into wrestling, you

819
01:12:00,359 --> 01:12:04,560
got to give Christopher Daniels credit.
They obviously still obviously still remember him,

820
01:12:05,159 --> 01:12:11,239
and they were his favorite and he
was their favorite wrestler. No, you

821
01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:17,000
can't dispute that. Yeah, he's
Paul and Angel Gimmick I love oh yeah,

822
01:12:18,039 --> 01:12:24,960
and its tag team his trios tag
team with Elix Skipper and oh Man,

823
01:12:25,399 --> 01:12:28,680
Uh Frankie, I can't remember the
other guys. Huh was it Frankie

824
01:12:30,600 --> 01:12:40,560
Frankie low key? Okay, I
think they made a mistake in this but

825
01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:45,159
God and finished him king. Oh
uh yeah. I mean he's been around

826
01:12:45,199 --> 01:12:48,279
and he and he's loved I'm wanting
to see him get a little bit of

827
01:12:48,359 --> 01:12:54,720
revenge on them. And that's why
really I am picking him take Eddie's because

828
01:12:54,760 --> 01:13:01,319
he deserves to be in the match. If if anybody here, here's where

829
01:13:01,319 --> 01:13:05,880
I think they missed the vote in
this, because you had at one point

830
01:13:05,880 --> 01:13:09,840
in time when you had SCU in
a w in the beginning, it was

831
01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:15,000
Christopher Daniels and Frankie Gazarim where the
Major was the tag team for a while,

832
01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:25,319
and they named Frankie as the Elite
Killer for six months after after lost

833
01:13:25,399 --> 01:13:28,079
the tag titles. That's what they
had him doing, was going around,

834
01:13:28,239 --> 01:13:31,600
just going after the Elite would have
been a perfect opportunity to tag them back

835
01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:39,520
up again for this match. Yeah, but he went to DNA. Yeah,

836
01:13:40,239 --> 01:13:45,199
is he still over there? Yeah, he decided to leave and do

837
01:13:45,399 --> 01:13:47,479
TNA, and I guess he's doing
good. I don't know. I don't

838
01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:51,000
pay atention to that company, but
yeah, he decided to leave full time

839
01:13:51,119 --> 01:14:02,640
and leave AW for good. I
remember watching uh back to Sinker build everything

840
01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:09,840
back when TNA was in its big
phase. They used to have in in

841
01:14:10,039 --> 01:14:15,479
Cleveland. They had a wrestling a
Cleveland Area Wrestling that you could go and

842
01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:16,720
join the gym and you could actually
wrestle if you wanted to. And they

843
01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:21,840
were affiliated with TNA, and he
used to be there a lot, so

844
01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:26,079
I got to see him wrestle like
once. They only had shows like on

845
01:14:26,199 --> 01:14:29,640
TV once a month, but it
was it was fun watching Christopher Daniels because

846
01:14:30,199 --> 01:14:35,560
he was very, very fun to
watch. Cool mm hmm yeah, me

847
01:14:36,039 --> 01:14:41,880
and my wife sorry, uh so
she's like newer to wrestling, so she

848
01:14:42,199 --> 01:14:48,119
obviously didn't know Christopher Daniels before AW
And we always joke because every time Christopher

849
01:14:48,239 --> 01:14:51,760
Daniels was on TV, I'd be
like, that's Christopher Daniels. He's like

850
01:14:51,840 --> 01:14:56,239
blah blah blah, and she would
never remember the next time he was on

851
01:14:56,359 --> 01:14:59,880
TV, I'm like, who's that
you wouldn't know? So we just haven't

852
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:02,520
cunning joke that every time he's on
TV, even though she kind of knows

853
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:06,079
who he is now, he just
pretends to not have any idea who he

854
01:15:06,239 --> 01:15:12,720
is. Well, we've established an
Alex mansplains wrestling to his wife to go

855
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:16,960
Alex. Yeah, yeah, of
course, she says, I man explain

856
01:15:17,039 --> 01:15:24,039
everything. So there you go.
It's our duty as men to make total

857
01:15:24,119 --> 01:15:29,359
fools of ourselves. Man's plating stuff
that doesn't matter. Yeah, the man

858
01:15:29,359 --> 01:15:33,399
explaining how I'm not actually man explaining
exactly. That's not masplaining. I'm just

859
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:43,960
telling you. I catch myself to
it all the time, So I'm making

860
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:46,960
fun of myself here to tickle myself
to death. Alex, We've got one

861
01:15:47,039 --> 01:15:50,960
more eliminator. Throw the rankings out
the window. Match, let's talk about

862
01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:56,159
it. Is this the first eliminator
where someone will actually win the match?

863
01:15:58,119 --> 01:16:00,479
The challenger? I don't think so. I think this is a zero.

864
01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:06,119
I was like, wait, what, Yeah, Swerve versus Brian Cage,

865
01:16:08,359 --> 01:16:12,760
this could be a really good match. I'm hoping Swerve brings the best out

866
01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:15,399
of Brian Cage here. He can
do a lot of cool things in the

867
01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:21,239
ring. But what I'm most interested
in in this match is what is the

868
01:16:21,399 --> 01:16:26,039
status of Prince Nana. Is he
gonna come out? Is there a chance

869
01:16:26,119 --> 01:16:30,920
he betrays Swerve? Is he gonna
align himself with them at the Embassy?

870
01:16:31,239 --> 01:16:34,960
Yeah, that's That's what I'm interested
about here, Alex. Though, if

871
01:16:34,960 --> 01:16:39,319
if that was a portray Swerve don't
you think you'd do it at double or

872
01:16:39,359 --> 01:16:43,680
nothing? Why would they do it
on Yeah, yeah, I don't.

873
01:16:44,079 --> 01:16:47,199
Yeah, but you know, we
might just see a hint of that or

874
01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:51,319
yeah, no I did. That's
the story here that I'm most interested in.

875
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:55,439
But yeah, that would be way
more interesting to have it done it

876
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:59,640
double or nothing. For sure.
There actually might be this actually might be

877
01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:06,119
the eliminator that the challenger wins because
you can't count out Christian interfering. Yeah,

878
01:17:08,359 --> 01:17:13,840
so you may have the entire patriarchy
come out. You might just have

879
01:17:15,079 --> 01:17:20,880
kill Switcher whatever the hell he's called
himself now and his other sons come out

880
01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:28,000
and interfere and costs Swerve the the
match. But it could be a good

881
01:17:28,079 --> 01:17:30,720
match. I like Brian Cage.
I've seen him do some good stuff in

882
01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:34,840
the ring, but he just seems
to be He's kind of like in the

883
01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:41,840
same place as Wardlow is anymore.
He's just there. He's had some good

884
01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:45,119
matches though, I'm like, you
know, Wardow has some decent matches,

885
01:17:45,199 --> 01:17:54,520
but I remember when it was Cage
versus Hangman Page and those two have pretty

886
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:58,439
good match match together. He can
go. He just I don't know what

887
01:17:58,600 --> 01:18:01,199
he He's one of those. He
has just one thing missing and I don't

888
01:18:01,239 --> 01:18:06,319
know what it is, but if
they uh huh, it's Taz. When

889
01:18:06,319 --> 01:18:12,399
he was part of the Taz's group, he was great and he did a

890
01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:15,079
lot of good stuff. It's part
of that group. And then they turned

891
01:18:15,119 --> 01:18:17,880
on him. Man, that was
when he started just becoming like I mean,

892
01:18:18,039 --> 01:18:19,920
I love don't get me wrong,
I love Wardlow, and I think

893
01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:23,640
he's going to be great down the
road, but he's kind of in the

894
01:18:23,680 --> 01:18:28,159
same boat. He hasn't really done
anything since then. So you're saying he

895
01:18:28,199 --> 01:18:31,920
needs a mouthpiece. It's not so
much that he needs a mouthpiece, but

896
01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:36,600
to be honest with you, I
don't see that that that that that he

897
01:18:36,720 --> 01:18:42,840
fits in with this group. You
know, it's the Gates of Agony and

898
01:18:44,319 --> 01:18:46,920
Brian Cage. He's part of that
group, but he's one of those like

899
01:18:47,960 --> 01:18:51,439
I've been thrown in this group because
they didn't have anything else to do with

900
01:18:51,560 --> 01:18:57,039
me. So you know what I
mean. It's they made a trio out

901
01:18:57,039 --> 01:19:00,239
of a do out of a duo
that they really didn't need to do,

902
01:19:00,439 --> 01:19:03,640
and he needs to be he needs
to get apart from that. Maybe if

903
01:19:03,680 --> 01:19:09,640
you put him in Wardlow together as
a tag team, that would be a

904
01:19:09,720 --> 01:19:12,479
great thing. Maybe, Yeah,
yeah, it could be good because yeah,

905
01:19:12,520 --> 01:19:16,079
I agreed, like they've never gelled. It's been like years. I

906
01:19:16,159 --> 01:19:19,439
think they've been together now at this
point. Yeah, and they do that

907
01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:26,479
like throw throw him for the throw
the guy for the power bomb to Brian

908
01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:30,159
Cage and he finishes that off.
It doesn't Brian Cage, it takes the

909
01:19:30,199 --> 01:19:34,720
loss. Yeah, it's such a
weird group. Like those two guys together

910
01:19:34,880 --> 01:19:41,000
look good, Brian Cage looks okay, but together it doesn't make any sense.

911
01:19:41,159 --> 01:19:46,039
And yeah, yeah, I agree. Well that Do you have anything

912
01:19:46,079 --> 01:19:55,279
to say about this patch? Oh
yeah, yeah, I just saw Swerve,

913
01:19:55,560 --> 01:20:01,640
so I'm kind of still starstruck.
But I don't I don't know what

914
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:05,960
did you say? Was it?
Yeah? Yeah, he was. He

915
01:20:06,159 --> 01:20:12,640
was at DeFi, and you know, while we're talking about our world champion,

916
01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:16,880
I have to say he is a
really nice person. When he came

917
01:20:17,039 --> 01:20:23,319
to DeFi, he stayed after the
show. He wasn't wrestling or anything,

918
01:20:23,439 --> 01:20:28,880
and he stayed and took pictures and
signed autographs with every single person at that

919
01:20:29,039 --> 01:20:36,840
show. And there were at least
two hundred people there, so that it

920
01:20:36,920 --> 01:20:42,880
was a surprise appearance. He wasn't
nobody knew he was going to be there,

921
01:20:43,359 --> 01:20:47,439
so it's really nice. But yeah, I feel bad for Brian Cage

922
01:20:47,840 --> 01:20:53,319
because he he seems all alone in
this world. He doesn't really fit anywhere.

923
01:20:55,199 --> 01:20:58,720
I feel bad for him. I
don't know, they need to do

924
01:20:58,920 --> 01:21:06,079
some development with him because he's not
a bad wrestler. Yeah, he's one

925
01:21:06,119 --> 01:21:10,359
of those guys that really surprised you
because his size, he can do some

926
01:21:10,479 --> 01:21:14,720
amazing stuff for the guy his side. Yeah. Yeah, a lot of

927
01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:18,800
people have compared Brian Cage to Wardlow, and I personally don't see that comparison

928
01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:24,600
because Wardlow has accomplished things more consistently
to Brian Cage does. Where I look

929
01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:30,199
at Brian Cage, I see him
as a comparison with like a parallel comparison

930
01:21:30,279 --> 01:21:39,359
with Lance Archer. Right, two
really really good wrestlers who are workhorses that

931
01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:44,640
just can't catch a win. Yeah, they're you know, and they're you

932
01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:49,560
know and you know, and you
make if you go like on Twitter and

933
01:21:49,680 --> 01:21:54,800
you mentioned Brian Cage or Lance Archer, they're going to respond to you.

934
01:21:54,960 --> 01:22:00,479
I'm gonna tell you that right now. They are good guys and you can't

935
01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:02,720
help, but root for them.
I root for them, and I just

936
01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:05,439
like to see them succeed. I
really want to see them succeed. They're

937
01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:11,439
it's not because they're good guys,
because but because they're good guys and they're

938
01:22:11,720 --> 01:22:18,119
excellent wrestlers supposed to Lance Archer and
and Brian Cage. I just want to

939
01:22:18,159 --> 01:22:21,800
see them succeed. I know,
I know you don't like the I know

940
01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:27,159
you don't like the trios. I
got a trio for you, Lance Archer,

941
01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:31,760
Brian Cage and Wardlow. I thought
you were going to say that would

942
01:22:31,760 --> 01:22:44,880
be under date the guidance. They
could become the monsters and they could just

943
01:22:45,119 --> 01:22:47,399
that would be a hell of a
group. That's true, that's a good

944
01:22:47,479 --> 01:22:54,319
idea. I mean they would be
they would be unstoppable. Yeah. They

945
01:22:54,359 --> 01:22:59,279
find a way to lose anyway.
That's how they get. It doesn't matter

946
01:22:59,439 --> 01:23:02,680
how much how much it seems to
be. Like you could put Brian Cage

947
01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:06,560
against Sir Pentico in a meaningful match
and Sir Penteca would walk away. They

948
01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:12,239
will find a way for Brian Cage
to lose. Let's Lance Archer lost to

949
01:23:12,399 --> 01:23:16,880
Orange Cassidy by a count out.
How freaking stupid was that match. That

950
01:23:17,279 --> 01:23:23,119
was just like, Okay, I
absolutely hate Orange Cassidy now because they book

951
01:23:23,159 --> 01:23:27,600
him like an idiot. Yeah,
you know that. Honestly, that match

952
01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:30,239
there maybe hate Tony Kahan. Honest
to God, I'm not gonna I'm not

953
01:23:30,279 --> 01:23:32,439
gonna lie to you. I was
like, what the hell are they doing?

954
01:23:33,039 --> 01:23:36,399
Lance Archer beat the shit out of
Orange Cassidy and they did that to

955
01:23:36,520 --> 01:23:41,119
Lance Archer And that's kind of the
same thing they've been doing to Brian Cage

956
01:23:41,159 --> 01:23:45,039
this whole time too. It's just
like, you know, it's like a

957
01:23:45,199 --> 01:23:47,359
donkey with a carrot being dangled before
their nose. You know, it's just

958
01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:51,239
like almost there, I almost get
the carrot, and then boom, there's

959
01:23:51,239 --> 01:23:57,840
a wall. Yeah yeah, and
that's the point. Well, look,

960
01:23:57,880 --> 01:24:00,800
we're gonna wrap this up now.
Thank you for listening to edition. Thank

961
01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:06,479

team for being here. I'm looking forward

01:24:10,199 --> 01:24:14,479

it, you know, but we'll see,

964
01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:17,920
we'll see. It can either be
a rocking good show or it could

965
01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:21,800
just be okay, that kind of
thing, I think, And it's gonna

966
01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:26,439
be a rock and good show.
I'm looking to see every segment on this

967
01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:32,880
may have except for maybe the hook
segment, you know, as yeah,

968
01:24:34,079 --> 01:24:38,800
they're gonna I'm sure with hook they're
gonna have something with the what do you

969
01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:42,199
call it, the intelligent shrubbery or
whatever it's called, you know, but

970
01:24:43,079 --> 01:24:47,359
you know, yeah, the learning
tree, the learning tree. I'm sorry,

971
01:24:48,039 --> 01:24:54,359
I know it has something to do
with leaning or learning Bill. There

972
01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:59,800
go Big Bill, which is,
let's face it, big Bill. It's

973
01:25:00,319 --> 01:25:05,760
the most original name in all of
wrestling. So anyway, William, oh

974
01:25:06,119 --> 01:25:11,439
gosh, I can't wait for the
show tomorrow night because there's just gonna be

975
01:25:11,439 --> 01:25:15,439
a lot going on. Yea,
even Picture Picture is probably gonna be something.

976
01:25:15,399 --> 01:25:19,239
Uh yes, so don't turn off
your TV during Picture and Picture.

977
01:25:19,680 --> 01:25:28,000
