WEBVTT

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

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
