<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the NXT Podcast, your home for weekly NXT

2
00:00:10.919 --> 00:00:14.279
<v Speaker 1>reviews and insight. The beautiful part of NXT is that

3
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:19.160

4
00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:23.839

00:00:23.960 --> 00:00:26.679
<v Speaker 1>with that being said, we only have one question for you.

6
00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Ah we thought, so let's get the show started right now.

7
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:43.880
<v Speaker 2>Hey guys, it's Jay. I'm here to do your NXT

8
00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:47.439
<v Speaker 2>review for May twentieth, twenty twenty five. And before we

9
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:51.079
<v Speaker 2>get into anything, I just want to apologize for last

10
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:52.920
<v Speaker 2>week of having a lot of stuff going on in

11
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:56.280
<v Speaker 2>my personal life. Dad's in the hospital, back in and out,

12
00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:58.920
<v Speaker 2>in and out, so I wasn't able to get to

13
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:01.960
<v Speaker 2>the review last week, and I did apologize to Matt.

14
00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:05.519
<v Speaker 2>But I am here this week for the review and

15
00:01:05.640 --> 00:01:07.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad I'm reviewing this show because this was a

16
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:12.079
<v Speaker 2>great show. This was This was our go home episode

17
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.040
<v Speaker 2>to Battleground, which is happening on Sunday night at eight

18
00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:20.200
<v Speaker 2>o'clock Eastern time, and this is turning out to be

19
00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:25.200
<v Speaker 2>a really packed show. At Battleground, we do a little

20
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:27.560
<v Speaker 2>bit of predictions. I mean, I'm not labeling this a

21
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:29.400
<v Speaker 2>prediction show, but I am going to do a little

22
00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:33.920
<v Speaker 2>bit of prediction for as we go through. Uh just

23
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:39.200
<v Speaker 2>kind of you know, in in in the conversation for Battleground,

24
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:44.040
<v Speaker 2>especially the TNA World title match between Joe Hendry and

25
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:48.719
<v Speaker 2>Trick Williams, because who knows. But we'll get into that

26
00:01:50.040 --> 00:01:52.640
<v Speaker 2>before I forget. I just wanted to, you know, wish

27
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:58.480
<v Speaker 2>my heartfelt get well too, zoways Stark. Everybody at this point,

28
00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:02.519
<v Speaker 2>everybody has seen what happened was Zoe on Monday night.

29
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:06.280
<v Speaker 2>Raw Wow. I mean felt so bad. I felt so

30
00:02:06.359 --> 00:02:07.920
<v Speaker 2>bad for all three of them, because I mean you

31
00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:09.960
<v Speaker 2>can you could tell that both that all three of

32
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:13.439
<v Speaker 2>like the Riha and Kyrie Sane were really upset too.

33
00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:18.000
<v Speaker 2>So you know, my heart heartfelt. But we'll just go

34
00:02:18.039 --> 00:02:20.080
<v Speaker 2>out to Zoe and I hope she comes back sooner.

35
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:23.039
<v Speaker 2>But I tell you, after seeing it, and of course

36
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:27.400
<v Speaker 2>we have view after view after view of of what happened,

37
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:31.000
<v Speaker 2>and I mean after seeing the view of what happened

38
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:34.360
<v Speaker 2>to her knee, I can't imagine she's gonna be back

39
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:38.159
<v Speaker 2>anytime soon. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think

40
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:41.120
<v Speaker 2>I am, unfortunately. But anyway, we're here to talk n

41
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:46.919
<v Speaker 2>x T and the NXT episode on the twentieth of

42
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:53.039
<v Speaker 2>May was a really good Tuesday was really good. It

43
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:58.719
<v Speaker 2>was a fantastic episode which started out with them with

44
00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:05.360
<v Speaker 2>an amazing match, which one by a gentleman who not

45
00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:07.560
<v Speaker 2>many people have heard of, aside from the Royal the

46
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:09.719
<v Speaker 2>Battle Royal that happened a few weeks ago that Miles

47
00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:15.280
<v Speaker 2>Bourne won. This is why I think people should watch Evolve.

48
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:17.439
<v Speaker 2>I watched a couple episodes. I do want to get

49
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:19.360
<v Speaker 2>back into it again, like to start from just start

50
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:22.199
<v Speaker 2>from now, start fresh from now. But there are a

51
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:27.560
<v Speaker 2>few episodes that I watched of Evolve. We're really good,

52
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:29.879
<v Speaker 2>Like they're really wrestling focused. I mean, yeah, they do

53
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:32.159
<v Speaker 2>they do some storylines. I mean obviously they can't not

54
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:37.439
<v Speaker 2>do storylines. But there's a lot of people coming up

55
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:42.479
<v Speaker 2>to NXT soon that I can't I can't wait for

56
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:45.639
<v Speaker 2>them to get here because it's gonna be really really cool.

57
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:56.919
<v Speaker 2>So let's talk about Tuesday Night NXT. We So anyway,

58
00:03:56.960 --> 00:03:58.680
<v Speaker 2>let's go, let's like just do this. This is the

59
00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:02.840
<v Speaker 2>thing that I always do. We We had the NXT

60
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:07.039
<v Speaker 2>from the Performance Center in winter Park, Florida. We had

61
00:04:07.039 --> 00:04:12.159
<v Speaker 2>our commentators Vic, Joseph Booker, t and Corey Graves and

62
00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:16.079
<v Speaker 2>we are re announcer of course is Mike Rome. Thank

63
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:18.240
<v Speaker 2>god Mike Rome is on NXT. I have to tell you,

64
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:20.879
<v Speaker 2>I like the guy on SmackDown. I forgot his name.

65
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:24.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't really care for Alicia Taylor. I've mentioned that

66
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:28.199
<v Speaker 2>many times, but the guy on SmackDown is really good

67
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:30.319
<v Speaker 2>for a new guy. But my attend to me. To me,

68
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:32.079
<v Speaker 2>Mike Rome is the best of the three and I'm

69
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:37.639
<v Speaker 2>glad we have him on an XT. This show started

70
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:41.240
<v Speaker 2>out with, to me, the match of the night and

71
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:46.079
<v Speaker 2>I'm I understand why they did this first because they

72
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:49.279
<v Speaker 2>couldn't do it last, but the entire Jo Hendry Trick

73
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:56.720
<v Speaker 2>Williams saga understandably so. But the match was between as

74
00:04:56.759 --> 00:05:01.000
<v Speaker 2>a triple threat match, apparently unofficially for the for number

75
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:05.399
<v Speaker 2>one contender ship for the NXT North American title, which

76
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:09.040
<v Speaker 2>apparently then became official as the show went on. The

77
00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:13.800
<v Speaker 2>whole thing was weird. It was Javon Evans, Sean Legacy

78
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:16.519
<v Speaker 2>and Ashanti the Adonnas now a Shanta the Adonnas. I

79
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:19.319
<v Speaker 2>you know, I've been back in wrestling now for about

80
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:22.600
<v Speaker 2>two and a half years. Yeah, I think two and

81
00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:28.160
<v Speaker 2>a half years and Shanda the Adonnas. Prior to well,

82
00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:33.000
<v Speaker 2>when I first came in, was part of it, was

83
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:37.519
<v Speaker 2>part of the tag team with Top Doll and be Fat.

84
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:41.279
<v Speaker 2>I can't I can't remember what their names were, whatever,

85
00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:44.120
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't matter. But and then ever since he's been on,

86
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:46.720
<v Speaker 2>he got sent down a NXT. He and Cedric g

87
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Alexander got sent down NXT at the same time Saja

88
00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:53.480
<v Speaker 2>Alexander was cooking and then they let him go, which

89
00:05:53.480 --> 00:05:55.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand. And I don't be surpris And I

90
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:58.000
<v Speaker 2>know a lot of people don't. They listen to this,

91
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:00.560
<v Speaker 2>don't watch a w but I wouldn't be surprised if

92
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.839
<v Speaker 2>you saw him with Bobby Lashley and MVP and Shelton

93
00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:05.879
<v Speaker 2>Benjamin and the Hurt Syndy Kate and Amy w if

94
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:09.360
<v Speaker 2>you do watch that. But that's just a thought that

95
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:12.759
<v Speaker 2>I had. But and I don't watch a w but

96
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:15.920
<v Speaker 2>I follow generally like I listened to. I listened to

97
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:19.519
<v Speaker 2>a whole lot of wrestling podcasts for me and also

98
00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:23.079
<v Speaker 2>from how to help Me prepare for expressing how I

99
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:25.279
<v Speaker 2>how I feel things are going with you guys. So

100
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:29.439
<v Speaker 2>I listened to other podcasts just to kind of get

101
00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:32.639
<v Speaker 2>an idea of what you know just kind of rehash

102
00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:35.519
<v Speaker 2>in my mind. And one of the podcasts that I

103
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:38.199
<v Speaker 2>am that I had heard said something about maybe Tajrick

104
00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:40.399
<v Speaker 2>Alexander ending up int a w with the Hurt Syndicate.

105
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:43.519
<v Speaker 2>So but then they also had a shot to the

106
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:46.959
<v Speaker 2>Adonis come down NXT. And he has been in the

107
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:53.560
<v Speaker 2>some in this weird romantic thing, either with Karma Petrovitch

108
00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:57.519
<v Speaker 2>or other other people, and it was just I don't know,

109
00:06:57.560 --> 00:06:59.439
<v Speaker 2>the whole thing was weird, I have to tell you though.

110
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:02.079
<v Speaker 2>And so he really got a chance to really shine.

111
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:05.360
<v Speaker 2>But you put him in the ring. This is a

112
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:07.519
<v Speaker 2>Chanta the Adonis if you put him in the ring.

113
00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:10.720
<v Speaker 2>But number one Javon Evans. Now, as far as I'm concerned,

114
00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:19.959
<v Speaker 2>Javon Evans is the champion and waiting. I have said

115
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:21.560
<v Speaker 2>to you and I am not changing this. I have

116
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:23.279
<v Speaker 2>said to you that the person who is going to

117
00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:33.439
<v Speaker 2>dethrone Oba Femi at some point is Javon Evans. That's

118
00:07:33.480 --> 00:07:37.680
<v Speaker 2>that's not even a question. The question is when probably

119
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:40.879
<v Speaker 2>you know, I can see Oba Femi holding this title. Well,

120
00:07:40.959 --> 00:07:43.120
<v Speaker 2>the respect to Miles Born and whoever else you know

121
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:48.319
<v Speaker 2>wrestles Obafemi in the next year. I I expect Obafemi

122
00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:52.199
<v Speaker 2>to hold this title for a year until Javon Evans dethrones.

123
00:07:52.279 --> 00:07:54.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm probably at stand and deliver next year. Again, I

124
00:07:55.000 --> 00:07:57.879
<v Speaker 2>could be wrong. That's just that's just my personal opinion.

125
00:07:57.959 --> 00:08:02.480
<v Speaker 2>He's Javon Evans to me, is the champion waiting. But

126
00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:05.240
<v Speaker 2>you put a Shanta Theodonnas in a match with Javon Evans,

127
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:11.199
<v Speaker 2>and then and then Sean Legacy. Who is Sean Legacy.

128
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:15.240
<v Speaker 2>Sean Legacy's on Evolve. I've seen Sean Legacy. He played

129
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:18.480
<v Speaker 2>a couple of times when I watched Evolve. He's good.

130
00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:21.160
<v Speaker 2>And if you don't think he was before, like if

131
00:08:21.199 --> 00:08:25.000
<v Speaker 2>you watched the match last night, he kept up with

132
00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Javon Evans the entire Obviously, Javan Evans is a different stratosphere.

133
00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Javan Evans is bouncing like bouncy right, the whole bouncy thing.

134
00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:36.519
<v Speaker 2>He's like going, you know, doing all these things, like

135
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:39.279
<v Speaker 2>just back and forth like the man. The man he's

136
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:42.559
<v Speaker 2>almost he's barely a man. He's eighteen nineteen. I don't

137
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:45.960
<v Speaker 2>know how old he is, but he's he's doing his thing,

138
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:52.840
<v Speaker 2>jumping around and and Sean Legacy did such a good

139
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:56.000
<v Speaker 2>job a keeping up with Javon Evans b also making

140
00:08:56.039 --> 00:08:59.600
<v Speaker 2>Cedric Or making Shanti the Adonnas look good and which,

141
00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:01.399
<v Speaker 2>by the way, he was good in his own right,

142
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:06.320
<v Speaker 2>but again, wrestling with these two guys made him look

143
00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:10.360
<v Speaker 2>even better. This match was the triple threat match between

144
00:09:10.440 --> 00:09:13.720
<v Speaker 2>Javon Evans Sewn Legacy and a Shanta Diadana's was by

145
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:17.840
<v Speaker 2>far the match of the night. Other things happened shenanigans,

146
00:09:17.879 --> 00:09:20.000
<v Speaker 2>let's say, but really didn't have a lot to do

147
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:24.720
<v Speaker 2>with the participants in the match. But if you haven't

148
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:27.720
<v Speaker 2>seen the episode and you're just listening to this, go

149
00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:30.240
<v Speaker 2>watch that. Just watch that match. I mean, the rest

150
00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:33.039
<v Speaker 2>of it was interesting and we'll go through it, but

151
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:38.080
<v Speaker 2>watch watch that match. That match was was so good.

152
00:09:40.200 --> 00:09:41.679
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm not I'm not gonna sit here and

153
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:45.360
<v Speaker 2>say back to the Year contender, but like, definitely an

154
00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:50.399
<v Speaker 2>honorable mention for sure. Before the match comes out, though,

155
00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:54.600
<v Speaker 2>we have Ricky Ricky Saints, I forgot his name, Ricky

156
00:09:54.679 --> 00:10:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Saints coming to the arena and a car. He immediate

157
00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:02.600
<v Speaker 2>walks out to the arena and sits down in a commentary.

158
00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:05.559
<v Speaker 2>So he's gonna commentate this match, because again, this is

159
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:09.279
<v Speaker 2>match is officially and officially a number one contender ship

160
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:17.559
<v Speaker 2>for the North American Championship, so he's doing commentary. The

161
00:10:17.559 --> 00:10:21.559
<v Speaker 2>match starts again, fabulous match. I'm not gonna go move,

162
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:24.039
<v Speaker 2>but move because this is they would take forever. But

163
00:10:25.840 --> 00:10:32.279
<v Speaker 2>eventually what happens is excuse me, eventually what happens is

164
00:10:35.519 --> 00:10:39.039
<v Speaker 2>what's his name? Ethan Page, Ethan Page, greatest heal in

165
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:43.480
<v Speaker 2>the game. Sorry, John Cena, You're not as good of

166
00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:49.440
<v Speaker 2>a heal as Ethan Page. Eathan Page jumps the barricade

167
00:10:49.679 --> 00:10:52.440
<v Speaker 2>behind the commentator's desk and starts beating the crap out

168
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:56.679
<v Speaker 2>of Rickey Saints. The match is going on, there's security,

169
00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:59.919
<v Speaker 2>there's everybody trying to separate these two. As the match

170
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:03.159
<v Speaker 2>is going on, Javon Evans decides I'm going to get

171
00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:05.840
<v Speaker 2>involved in that too, and Suicide dives over the top

172
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:10.480
<v Speaker 2>rope and takes out security spears not spears. Security, Ethan

173
00:11:10.519 --> 00:11:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Page and Ricky Saints all gone like draw on the floor.

174
00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:23.000
<v Speaker 2>Meanwhile in the ring, we had a shantiviodonnas and showing

175
00:11:23.120 --> 00:11:26.840
<v Speaker 2>legacy continuing them. There they're back and forth and it

176
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:31.600
<v Speaker 2>was match ends. What is the move? I gotta figure

177
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:39.519
<v Speaker 2>out the move? That Sean Legacy won the match with uh,

178
00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:46.480
<v Speaker 2>what is it called the shambles? It's called the move

179
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:53.320
<v Speaker 2>is called the shambles, which is basically a suplex into

180
00:11:53.320 --> 00:11:55.960
<v Speaker 2>a stunner. Like I don't I don't know exactly how

181
00:11:55.960 --> 00:12:00.200
<v Speaker 2>to explain it. Cool move, and let me say, shown Legacy,

182
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:03.559
<v Speaker 2>he looks the part, he plays the part. He's really good.

183
00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:07.000
<v Speaker 2>And apparently he is according to later in the show,

184
00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:09.240
<v Speaker 2>he is going to get a shot at the NXT

185
00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:13.840
<v Speaker 2>North American Championship against well, I guess against Rickey Saints.

186
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:16.559
<v Speaker 2>But there's a whole caveat to that, which I'll go

187
00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:24.000
<v Speaker 2>into in a second. And then and then so yeah,

188
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:29.240
<v Speaker 2>that was like again, great match, one awesome match. So

189
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:33.159
<v Speaker 2>then we go back after after that match is over

190
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:35.559
<v Speaker 2>and I keep talking about it, but I'm not going

191
00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:37.600
<v Speaker 2>to just watch if you haven't seen it, watch it.

192
00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:42.399
<v Speaker 2>If you have seen it, comment like, amazing. Again again,

193
00:12:42.840 --> 00:12:44.679
<v Speaker 2>there's a reason why that match was in the beginning.

194
00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:46.519
<v Speaker 2>I think that on a normal if they were going

195
00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:48.799
<v Speaker 2>to do a match like that, normally would be at

196
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:51.799
<v Speaker 2>the end. But because between the whole trick and Joe

197
00:12:51.799 --> 00:12:53.639
<v Speaker 2>Hendry thing, I can see why they didn't do that.

198
00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:55.480
<v Speaker 2>But that better to put it in the beginning than

199
00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:57.759
<v Speaker 2>the end. Then we go back to ABA's office and

200
00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:00.480
<v Speaker 2>Stevie Turner says it's a big victory for bull Legacy

201
00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:03.720
<v Speaker 2>and Evolved, and Ava agrees with Stevie, but she's not

202
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:07.320
<v Speaker 2>happy with the Ricky Saints Ethan page brawl. And Ava

203
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:10.320
<v Speaker 2>gives a big congratulations to Jasper Troy and then in

204
00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:15.679
<v Speaker 2>Tyra May uh tyram May steal on being the newest,

205
00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:19.879
<v Speaker 2>uh sorry, newest additions to NXT roster because they won

206
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:24.320
<v Speaker 2>season one of w w W w LFG. By the way,

207
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:32.519
<v Speaker 2>Jasper Troy is a big dude tearing around a JYD

208
00:13:32.799 --> 00:13:36.080
<v Speaker 2>chain around his neck. And if you know what I'm

209
00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:38.039
<v Speaker 2>talking about, then you know what I'm talking about. Jyd

210
00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:40.519
<v Speaker 2>for the record, in case, in case you're too young,

211
00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:44.399
<v Speaker 2>Junkyard Dog back in the eighties carry a chain, but

212
00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:48.720
<v Speaker 2>this chain's even bigger. This chain is massive, and I

213
00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:50.279
<v Speaker 2>don't mean like I don't mean like a necklace, I

214
00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:55.360
<v Speaker 2>mean a chain. So both of them will be making

215
00:13:55.399 --> 00:13:58.399
<v Speaker 2>their debuts over the next coming weeks and Tyra's beyond excited,

216
00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:01.159
<v Speaker 2>but Jasper tells Ava that he is planning on making

217
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:06.480
<v Speaker 2>an impact on n x T starting tonight, so that'll

218
00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:09.399
<v Speaker 2>be interesting to talk about that. Then we have a

219
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:12.080
<v Speaker 2>promo for Jordan Grace. I'm not gonna talk about the promos.

220
00:14:12.159 --> 00:14:14.840
<v Speaker 2>They did a promo for Jordan. So last week we

221
00:14:14.840 --> 00:14:16.840
<v Speaker 2>had a tag team match to you know, the whole,

222
00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:19.679
<v Speaker 2>the whole could they co exist between Jordan Grace and

223
00:14:19.720 --> 00:14:22.320
<v Speaker 2>Stephanie Vacaier blah blah blah. It's the same thing they

224
00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:25.799
<v Speaker 2>do before every match between like two baby faces or

225
00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:28.360
<v Speaker 2>two heels they do, they do the whole. Can they

226
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:33.240
<v Speaker 2>co exist in a tag team match? So so this week,

227
00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:37.240
<v Speaker 2>all they did between the women's title match, they had

228
00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:41.440
<v Speaker 2>Jordan Grace cut a promo and then Stephanie VC Coorge

229
00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:45.799
<v Speaker 2>and did an interview slash promo as well. You know,

230
00:14:45.879 --> 00:14:48.240
<v Speaker 2>Jordan Grace just she talked about the people that she

231
00:14:48.519 --> 00:14:51.679
<v Speaker 2>that she you know, admires the people that came in

232
00:14:51.720 --> 00:14:57.440
<v Speaker 2>with her. To be honest, the only reason why Jordan

233
00:14:57.440 --> 00:15:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Grace is and and maybe this will change on Sunday

234
00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:03.759
<v Speaker 2>and I'll talk about that later, but the only reason

235
00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:05.799
<v Speaker 2>why Jordan Grace is in the NXT Champion right now

236
00:15:05.879 --> 00:15:10.159
<v Speaker 2>is just because Stephanie is there. And Stephanie is Stephanie

237
00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:15.360
<v Speaker 2>like Stephanie is Stephanie. Oh oh, I forgot to mention,

238
00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:19.679
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, obviously now we're the women's roster in

239
00:15:19.759 --> 00:15:22.879
<v Speaker 2>n X Tier two women short because now officially Roxanne,

240
00:15:23.159 --> 00:15:27.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean, to the surprise of no. One, to the

241
00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:32.559
<v Speaker 2>surprise of zero people, Roxanne Perez is now signed with

242
00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:39.519
<v Speaker 2>RA and Julie is now signed with SmackDown, Great excellent. Please.

243
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:41.600
<v Speaker 2>And I've been I've been saying for months, and I

244
00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:43.200
<v Speaker 2>think I said it again two weeks ago when I

245
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:47.360
<v Speaker 2>did my last my last review the women's roster main

246
00:15:47.399 --> 00:15:53.600
<v Speaker 2>of main the women's main event rosters, main show rosters.

247
00:15:53.639 --> 00:15:55.320
<v Speaker 2>They need a shot in the arm, and Julia and

248
00:15:55.440 --> 00:15:58.000
<v Speaker 2>Roxanne will definitely and they have already been the shot

249
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:03.279
<v Speaker 2>in the arm for for both the visions. Roxanne has

250
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:06.039
<v Speaker 2>already qualified for her money in the bank. And don't

251
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:09.320
<v Speaker 2>be surprised if Julia qualifies too. I'm not saying she

252
00:16:09.360 --> 00:16:11.480
<v Speaker 2>definitely will. I'm not even saying she'll definitely win it.

253
00:16:11.919 --> 00:16:16.840
<v Speaker 2>But I do see a lot of similarities between Roxanne

254
00:16:16.879 --> 00:16:21.919
<v Speaker 2>and Tiffany Stratton from last year. It'll be interesting to

255
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:26.320
<v Speaker 2>see how that goes. Anyway, they do, they do the

256
00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:30.879
<v Speaker 2>Jordan Grace promo. He Yeah, it's great. I mean, it

257
00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:32.279
<v Speaker 2>was like it was a good promo. I liked it.

258
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:35.919
<v Speaker 2>There was no they you know, they weren't there together

259
00:16:35.960 --> 00:16:38.320
<v Speaker 2>in the arena. They didn't go after each other. They

260
00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:42.120
<v Speaker 2>didn't you know, Stephanie didn't hold the belt up in

261
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:46.159
<v Speaker 2>Jordan's face. None of that happened. It's just promo. We

262
00:16:46.200 --> 00:16:49.240
<v Speaker 2>have a match on Sunday. Here's the promo. Then we

263
00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:52.080
<v Speaker 2>have Lola Ice telling Stephanie that she's she's in for

264
00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:55.120
<v Speaker 2>a real battle this Sunday, and Lola is putting her

265
00:16:55.639 --> 00:17:00.120
<v Speaker 2>her money on Stephanie. Stephanie then appreciates uh Lola say

266
00:17:00.840 --> 00:17:03.440
<v Speaker 2>and tells Lola that she'll talk to her before her

267
00:17:03.480 --> 00:17:07.359
<v Speaker 2>interview shot to her. After her interview, Lola runs into

268
00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:11.440
<v Speaker 2>fatal Influence. Jacy Jane says that Lola can suck up

269
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:13.920
<v Speaker 2>to the champion all she wants, but she won't get

270
00:17:13.920 --> 00:17:17.279
<v Speaker 2>her a title shot, and Fallen Henley says that they'll

271
00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:21.000
<v Speaker 2>they'll be the ones taking the title away from Stephanie. Lola.

272
00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:26.039
<v Speaker 2>Then she said, Lola SE's otherwise with how they performed

273
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:29.200
<v Speaker 2>last week in the main event, and Fallen is not

274
00:17:29.319 --> 00:17:33.480
<v Speaker 2>taking blame because she didn't get pinned Lola says that

275
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:36.079
<v Speaker 2>Fatal Influence can pretend to be a tig team, but

276
00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:41.920
<v Speaker 2>in reality they get in each other's way. It's really embarrassing.

277
00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Jace says that Lola can think however she wants, but

278
00:17:46.359 --> 00:17:50.799
<v Speaker 2>like Fallen, thinks she's the leader. Fallen reminds jac that

279
00:17:50.880 --> 00:17:56.119
<v Speaker 2>she was the Nxteam Women's North American Champion. Jacy has

280
00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:58.759
<v Speaker 2>a great idea, why didn't Why doesn't Fallon take on

281
00:17:58.880 --> 00:18:03.319
<v Speaker 2>Lola tonight and prove that she's proved why she's behind

282
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:05.640
<v Speaker 2>them when it comes to nxt WA's championship and Lola

283
00:18:05.720 --> 00:18:07.559
<v Speaker 2>tels fall and she'll see her in the ring. By

284
00:18:07.559 --> 00:18:10.720
<v Speaker 2>the way, where's Jasmine Nicks? Where is she? Like? She's

285
00:18:10.720 --> 00:18:13.039
<v Speaker 2>not around? I don't understand, Like you're supposed to be

286
00:18:13.039 --> 00:18:15.640
<v Speaker 2>three of them and I just and and for some reason,

287
00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Lola Ice called them a tag team? Was Jasmine next

288
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:20.480
<v Speaker 2>part of the cuts? I don't remember that. I don't

289
00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:24.599
<v Speaker 2>remember that she was anyway. By the way, if you're

290
00:18:24.640 --> 00:18:28.039
<v Speaker 2>if you're following any of the people that were cut, Blaired,

291
00:18:28.119 --> 00:18:32.440
<v Speaker 2>I've been following Blair Davenport and and uh cour Jade

292
00:18:34.319 --> 00:18:37.559
<v Speaker 2>and a bunch of other people. They're they're so NXT

293
00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:41.759
<v Speaker 2>has a thirty day no compete clause, so like they're

294
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:45.079
<v Speaker 2>ready to go. They all have, they have bookings, they're

295
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:47.359
<v Speaker 2>ready to go. If you're the main roster, it's a

296
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:50.680
<v Speaker 2>ninety day no compete clause. So it's just let me

297
00:18:50.720 --> 00:18:54.400
<v Speaker 2>tell you, they're all gonna end up someplace, even if

298
00:18:54.440 --> 00:18:56.160
<v Speaker 2>it's just independence for a while, Like I'll go see

299
00:18:56.160 --> 00:19:00.000
<v Speaker 2>an independent shows means that courage jaide is gonna show up,

300
00:19:02.359 --> 00:19:07.599
<v Speaker 2>all right. So tonight then we had we had two

301
00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:13.680
<v Speaker 2>musical things happening tonight. One of them was a rap

302
00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:21.599
<v Speaker 2>performance by Trick Williams. I don't particularly sorry if I

303
00:19:21.599 --> 00:19:25.200
<v Speaker 2>offend you. I don't particularly care for rap, and really

304
00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:28.319
<v Speaker 2>all all Trick Williams was doing is rapping to the voice.

305
00:19:28.599 --> 00:19:31.240
<v Speaker 2>That was actually part of like he wasn't He wasn't.

306
00:19:31.319 --> 00:19:34.279
<v Speaker 2>He was rapping to the person rapping on the recording,

307
00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:37.960
<v Speaker 2>which was really weird. A lot about being, you know,

308
00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:41.960
<v Speaker 2>going against an average joe, Like, I mean, can we

309
00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:45.119
<v Speaker 2>be a little more creative please? I don't know, like

310
00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:48.359
<v Speaker 2>I like Trick, I like, I respect him so much

311
00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:50.960
<v Speaker 2>just to see him have just to see him do this,

312
00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:54.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I guess, I guess it's kind of hard

313
00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:58.160
<v Speaker 2>because I'm a musician. I went to school for music

314
00:19:58.240 --> 00:20:01.920
<v Speaker 2>at a college and Albany. It's now closed because of COVID.

315
00:20:01.960 --> 00:20:08.519
<v Speaker 2>You know, they closed after COVID was over, and like

316
00:20:09.000 --> 00:20:11.640
<v Speaker 2>it was just it was not good, and he just

317
00:20:11.680 --> 00:20:15.680
<v Speaker 2>did it and he left. So that's what happened when

318
00:20:15.680 --> 00:20:19.440
<v Speaker 2>we had Trick Williams of the rap performance to it

319
00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:26.440
<v Speaker 2>to basically insult Joe Hendry. Yay uh oh my god,

320
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:28.279
<v Speaker 2>they actually have the thing that I'm reading actually has

321
00:20:28.279 --> 00:20:30.519
<v Speaker 2>all the words. Then me go to the locker room

322
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:32.839
<v Speaker 2>Aria and Joe Hendry says that the gloves are off

323
00:20:32.920 --> 00:20:38.359
<v Speaker 2>while he is strumming his acoustic guitar. Then Kelly Kenny

324
00:20:38.880 --> 00:20:44.599
<v Speaker 2>has a backstage interview with Josh Briggs. Briggs knows that

325
00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:47.000
<v Speaker 2>it's been a while since he's been a singles competition.

326
00:20:47.240 --> 00:20:50.359
<v Speaker 2>He wishes that Yoshiki an Amora we're here, but he's not.

327
00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:54.279
<v Speaker 2>Things haven't been fun for breaks since Inamora went back

328
00:20:54.279 --> 00:20:57.559
<v Speaker 2>to Japan, and Briggs is not. Is now dedicating this

329
00:20:57.680 --> 00:21:01.079
<v Speaker 2>match to Inamora tonight. So the second match we have

330
00:21:01.160 --> 00:21:09.119
<v Speaker 2>of the night is Sean Spears versus Josh Briggs. This

331
00:21:09.240 --> 00:21:11.680
<v Speaker 2>match was good, it wasn't you know it was? It

332
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:14.720
<v Speaker 2>was okay, it was it was to use match terminology,

333
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:20.079
<v Speaker 2>it was fine. It is really what it was the

334
00:21:20.160 --> 00:21:25.039
<v Speaker 2>end of the match Josh Briggs and ends up losing

335
00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:28.559
<v Speaker 2>to Sean Spears and the Color. And then afterwards, you know,

336
00:21:28.640 --> 00:21:32.359
<v Speaker 2>Josh gets ticked, starts attack, starts attacking Sean Spears. The

337
00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:34.440
<v Speaker 2>rest of the calling come in start beating him up.

338
00:21:34.680 --> 00:21:39.480
<v Speaker 2>They all still take turns beating up Josh Briggs, and

339
00:21:39.519 --> 00:21:43.799
<v Speaker 2>then Hank k and Tank come out and and get

340
00:21:43.839 --> 00:21:46.599
<v Speaker 2>the calling out of the ring, which then in turn

341
00:21:46.720 --> 00:21:49.359
<v Speaker 2>sets up a match between the guys of the calling

342
00:21:50.000 --> 00:21:53.880
<v Speaker 2>versus hankin, Tank and Josh Briggs. And I believe that's

343
00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:56.400
<v Speaker 2>a battleground on Sunday. I'll have to double check that.

344
00:21:56.480 --> 00:21:58.960
<v Speaker 2>I'll find out. But it was a it was a

345
00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:01.799
<v Speaker 2>decent match, Like I said, it was fine. It was fine.

346
00:22:02.480 --> 00:22:07.319
<v Speaker 2>Sean Spears winsor via pinfall. Then we have Zaria and

347
00:22:07.400 --> 00:22:10.759
<v Speaker 2>sol Ruka running into Colonnie Jordan in the women's locker room.

348
00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:14.039
<v Speaker 2>Colonie says, just to be clear, when Colonie beat Zoria tonight,

349
00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:17.920
<v Speaker 2>she'll face so for the NXT Women's North American Championship

350
00:22:17.920 --> 00:22:23.519
<v Speaker 2>at Battleground. Soul agrees to the terms last week, and

351
00:22:23.559 --> 00:22:25.920
<v Speaker 2>Colonnie said that she wouldn't be surprised if Soul went

352
00:22:25.960 --> 00:22:28.920
<v Speaker 2>back on her word. Zaria says that Soul is the

353
00:22:28.920 --> 00:22:31.920
<v Speaker 2>most genuine person in w w E. Saul is not

354
00:22:31.960 --> 00:22:35.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna go back on her word, just like Colanie won't

355
00:22:35.240 --> 00:22:39.000
<v Speaker 2>be going to Battleground. Zaria then says that she'll be

356
00:22:39.119 --> 00:22:43.519
<v Speaker 2>Colonie once again. Colonie tells Saul that she'll that she'll

357
00:22:43.559 --> 00:22:47.799
<v Speaker 2>see her at Battleground. Bea Hale comes out and confronts

358
00:22:47.799 --> 00:22:49.960
<v Speaker 2>Tatum Paxley and she wants to know what's up with

359
00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:52.599
<v Speaker 2>her behavior. Now, Okay, I din't you get a chance to

360
00:22:52.599 --> 00:22:55.759
<v Speaker 2>talk about this last week, so I'll talk about it now.

361
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:01.799
<v Speaker 2>So they had the cut, right, they had the releases

362
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:05.960
<v Speaker 2>and two well, one of the releases was Gigi Dolan,

363
00:23:06.160 --> 00:23:10.160
<v Speaker 2>who everybody should know if that follows an XT was

364
00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:13.519
<v Speaker 2>a tag team with Tatum Pasley and then another. It

365
00:23:13.559 --> 00:23:16.079
<v Speaker 2>wasn't a cut necessarily, it was more like your contract

366
00:23:16.119 --> 00:23:18.599
<v Speaker 2>is up and we're not resigning you as Shatzi. So

367
00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:20.799
<v Speaker 2>the three of them kind of had this like bond

368
00:23:20.880 --> 00:23:23.920
<v Speaker 2>thing going on. And now the two of Gigi and

369
00:23:23.960 --> 00:23:28.720
<v Speaker 2>Shatzi are now gone, and so Tatum is by herself

370
00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:35.680
<v Speaker 2>and I I have mixed emotions. I have mixed emotions,

371
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:39.799
<v Speaker 2>Like I think it's really cool that they're incorporating their

372
00:23:39.839 --> 00:23:44.559
<v Speaker 2>releases in the storyline with Tatum Pasley, like she's sad

373
00:23:44.599 --> 00:23:48.400
<v Speaker 2>because all of her friends are gone. I mean, she

374
00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:51.759
<v Speaker 2>doesn't really say why, but we all know why. On

375
00:23:51.839 --> 00:23:57.799
<v Speaker 2>the flip side, though, on the flip side, I think

376
00:23:57.839 --> 00:23:59.480
<v Speaker 2>it kind of sucks that they're using the fact that

377
00:23:59.519 --> 00:24:03.200
<v Speaker 2>they cut peace people, that they fired people as in

378
00:24:03.279 --> 00:24:08.079
<v Speaker 2>part of a story and an active storyline. Like most

379
00:24:08.119 --> 00:24:10.440
<v Speaker 2>of the time, other people leave the company for whatever,

380
00:24:10.480 --> 00:24:13.119
<v Speaker 2>for whatever various reasons, and they're just never mentioned again,

381
00:24:13.759 --> 00:24:16.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't until the next time, Like I like, for instance,

382
00:24:16.200 --> 00:24:18.480
<v Speaker 2>Alistair Black, like Alistair Black was going it was an

383
00:24:18.519 --> 00:24:21.799
<v Speaker 2>aw for however long many years it was three, four

384
00:24:21.880 --> 00:24:24.039
<v Speaker 2>or five, I don't remember how well, they never mentioned

385
00:24:24.079 --> 00:24:28.440
<v Speaker 2>his name once until magically comes back, right, So you

386
00:24:28.680 --> 00:24:31.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm not saying they're mentioning Gigi and Shazi,

387
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:34.079
<v Speaker 2>but the fact that they're kind of a part of

388
00:24:34.119 --> 00:24:37.799
<v Speaker 2>the storyline even though they're not there, it's interesting to me.

389
00:24:38.319 --> 00:24:43.480
<v Speaker 2>But then it's also kind of rude. Tell me what

390
00:24:43.559 --> 00:24:46.559
<v Speaker 2>you think. Is it good or bad? I think it's

391
00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:53.400
<v Speaker 2>it's different. It's different. I'll say that it's different. So anyway, uh,

392
00:24:53.640 --> 00:24:56.160
<v Speaker 2>Tatum says that THEA doesn't understand the toll it takes

393
00:24:56.200 --> 00:24:59.000
<v Speaker 2>to lose everyone you're close to, and THEA says she'll

394
00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:03.359
<v Speaker 2>agree to do disagree on that notion because THEA also

395
00:25:03.559 --> 00:25:07.359
<v Speaker 2>lost Duke Hudson and Riley Osbourne, who were both with

396
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:13.519
<v Speaker 2>her in Chase. You now Adrian Chase. That's a whole

397
00:25:13.519 --> 00:25:16.480
<v Speaker 2>separate thing. I don't really particularly care for the current

398
00:25:16.599 --> 00:25:25.640
<v Speaker 2>storyline that they're going through. But but THEA Chase's partners,

399
00:25:25.759 --> 00:25:28.599
<v Speaker 2>Duke Hudson and Riley Osbourne both have gotten released in

400
00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:37.160
<v Speaker 2>the last few months, So yeah, she does understand. Then

401
00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:40.880
<v Speaker 2>Jada Parker blessed THEA with a hypnotic out of nowhere

402
00:25:41.920 --> 00:25:46.839
<v Speaker 2>and and Jada says something like, oh, okay, you feel

403
00:25:46.839 --> 00:25:48.759
<v Speaker 2>bad for you? She goes, oh you were, and Tatum's like, oh,

404
00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:50.880
<v Speaker 2>you really feel bad for me? She's like, nah, bitch,

405
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:57.079
<v Speaker 2>Like what's the point of that. I mean, Jada Parker

406
00:25:57.119 --> 00:26:00.119
<v Speaker 2>went from like going for the NXT women's title at

407
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:05.119
<v Speaker 2>Standon's delivery to now like I mean, listen, don't get

408
00:26:05.160 --> 00:26:09.160
<v Speaker 2>me wrong. I love the Ahale and Tatum Pasley, like

409
00:26:09.160 --> 00:26:11.599
<v Speaker 2>like that's an hot that's those those two are both awesome.

410
00:26:11.640 --> 00:26:13.920
<v Speaker 2>But like I feel like Jada was just like downgraded

411
00:26:13.960 --> 00:26:16.839
<v Speaker 2>because she really was the odd I mean I said

412
00:26:16.839 --> 00:26:19.960
<v Speaker 2>this during during standon Delivery season. She really was the

413
00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:22.720
<v Speaker 2>odd woman. Now, I mean of you know, of we

414
00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:25.960
<v Speaker 2>had Julia Jordan Grace, Stephanie Vacier, and then Jada Parker.

415
00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:31.640
<v Speaker 2>Janna Parker is good, but she's not on their level. Okay,

416
00:26:31.880 --> 00:26:35.079
<v Speaker 2>who talking a lot because I didn't get a chance

417
00:26:35.119 --> 00:26:38.079
<v Speaker 2>to talk last week. Our third match is oh Tim

418
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:45.720
<v Speaker 2>versus Calee Dixon and you're Riah Connors. So right now,

419
00:26:46.880 --> 00:26:51.240
<v Speaker 2>so right now, Milesbourne is on the process of trying

420
00:26:51.240 --> 00:26:55.519
<v Speaker 2>to go against Obafemi. So there's no really no quarter

421
00:26:55.599 --> 00:27:00.920
<v Speaker 2>Catch crew tag team and I'm more left. So now

422
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:05.279
<v Speaker 2>there's no Josh Briggs and a more a tag team.

423
00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:11.119
<v Speaker 2>Who's a tig team anyway? The College, I guess, I mean,

424
00:27:11.160 --> 00:27:12.720
<v Speaker 2>they're not really a tag team. They're a group that

425
00:27:12.759 --> 00:27:15.759
<v Speaker 2>has a tag team part the Dark State, but they're

426
00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:19.279
<v Speaker 2>not really a tag and they're a group. So so

427
00:27:19.400 --> 00:27:21.960
<v Speaker 2>now they're trying to rebuild OTM. I don't. I mean

428
00:27:22.000 --> 00:27:27.720
<v Speaker 2>OTM is Listen. I went through a long time where

429
00:27:27.799 --> 00:27:31.079
<v Speaker 2>I didn't particularly care for Hank and Tank and show A.

430
00:27:31.200 --> 00:27:35.599
<v Speaker 2>Michaels did his magic and made me care for them.

431
00:27:35.720 --> 00:27:40.400
<v Speaker 2>So right now I'm kind of feeling the same about OTM,

432
00:27:40.480 --> 00:27:43.960
<v Speaker 2>and I'm also feeling the same about Chase You. I'm

433
00:27:43.960 --> 00:27:46.279
<v Speaker 2>not even gonna talk about Chase You to I because

434
00:27:46.319 --> 00:27:51.680
<v Speaker 2>the whole thing was just weird. But I don't this

435
00:27:51.799 --> 00:27:54.960
<v Speaker 2>was a match where I don't care. Like I didn't care.

436
00:27:56.440 --> 00:27:58.839
<v Speaker 2>I don't care about OTM. I don't care about kill

437
00:27:58.920 --> 00:28:02.799
<v Speaker 2>Dixon and Uri Connor in Chase University, like Chase University

438
00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:06.039
<v Speaker 2>with the Duke, thea Riley and Adrian Chase. That to

439
00:28:06.039 --> 00:28:09.039
<v Speaker 2>me was Chase University. I don't know what this is.

440
00:28:09.960 --> 00:28:13.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what this is. It's it's funny right

441
00:28:13.119 --> 00:28:16.480
<v Speaker 2>now NXC has so many awesome things going on, and

442
00:28:16.519 --> 00:28:18.079
<v Speaker 2>then they have so many things. It's just like, I

443
00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:24.359
<v Speaker 2>don't care. You've got two hours to fill use them wisely,

444
00:28:25.200 --> 00:28:27.039
<v Speaker 2>and it's two hours on the dot. And I've said

445
00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:29.559
<v Speaker 2>this before, like ten o'clock comes boom, the news is

446
00:28:29.599 --> 00:28:36.079
<v Speaker 2>on anyway, But the bottom line is at the end

447
00:28:36.079 --> 00:28:38.319
<v Speaker 2>of the match, OTM get gets the win against the

448
00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:44.279
<v Speaker 2>guys from Chase University. There you go. I don't really

449
00:28:44.319 --> 00:28:47.519
<v Speaker 2>have much more to say about it. There's so many

450
00:28:47.519 --> 00:28:49.440
<v Speaker 2>good things that happen in the show that I'm just

451
00:28:49.559 --> 00:28:51.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm kind of just glossing over the things that were

452
00:28:51.480 --> 00:28:55.799
<v Speaker 2>just okay or less than okay. Then we have a

453
00:28:56.160 --> 00:29:01.559
<v Speaker 2>segment between Obafemi and Milesbourne. Now I'm gonna say this.

454
00:29:01.599 --> 00:29:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Once I said this, I'm gonna say this a million times.

455
00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:08.640
<v Speaker 2>Miles Bourne and the spoiler alert, Miles Bourne has no

456
00:29:08.799 --> 00:29:16.519
<v Speaker 2>shot in hell of beating Obafemi. Uh, if you want

457
00:29:16.519 --> 00:29:19.440
<v Speaker 2>a big payout, put some money on Milesbourne. If if

458
00:29:19.440 --> 00:29:21.160
<v Speaker 2>you're in New York you can't do this, but other

459
00:29:21.200 --> 00:29:25.000
<v Speaker 2>states you can. And listen. I am not condoning gambling,

460
00:29:25.000 --> 00:29:27.319
<v Speaker 2>and I don't think you should really do this, But

461
00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:30.240
<v Speaker 2>if there's a sure bet, the sure bet is is

462
00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:33.200
<v Speaker 2>on Obathemi and he's probably only getting a one one

463
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:41.000
<v Speaker 2>to one, one to two or one to two winnings. Anyway, Yes,

464
00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:44.200
<v Speaker 2>I like I have fallen and liked with Miles Bourne.

465
00:29:45.039 --> 00:29:48.519
<v Speaker 2>I like what he's doing. I like the fact that

466
00:29:48.519 --> 00:29:50.920
<v Speaker 2>they're kind of pushing the fact that he can overcome

467
00:29:51.000 --> 00:29:55.480
<v Speaker 2>this disability that he has, and yeah, I think he'll

468
00:29:55.480 --> 00:29:58.119
<v Speaker 2>put on a I think he'll put on a decent match.

469
00:30:01.200 --> 00:30:04.039
<v Speaker 2>Who out there actually thinks that Milesbourne is gonna beat Obafemi?

470
00:30:05.960 --> 00:30:08.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I guess we kind of said that about

471
00:30:08.599 --> 00:30:11.279
<v Speaker 2>Tony di'angelo and he ended up winning the North American title,

472
00:30:11.319 --> 00:30:14.759
<v Speaker 2>But that's only because Obafemi had to win the NXT title.

473
00:30:15.279 --> 00:30:17.119
<v Speaker 2>You know. They they just didn't do the same thing

474
00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:21.079
<v Speaker 2>did with Stephanie vac Care, but the with the double championship.

475
00:30:22.759 --> 00:30:28.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Again, I like Milesbourne. There's no universe

476
00:30:28.920 --> 00:30:32.079
<v Speaker 2>where I see that he wins against Obami and if

477
00:30:32.119 --> 00:30:40.000
<v Speaker 2>he does, cool cool. I don't know. Anyway, Let's let's

478
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:43.160
<v Speaker 2>let's see what they said. So oba Femi says, Miles,

479
00:30:43.240 --> 00:30:45.559
<v Speaker 2>I see you came alone tonight. I can't quite tell

480
00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:48.680
<v Speaker 2>if that makes you stupid or brave, perhaps both, but

481
00:30:48.720 --> 00:30:52.319
<v Speaker 2>I do I also do confidently feel that it's exactly

482
00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:54.920
<v Speaker 2>why you made this made it this far, even even

483
00:30:54.960 --> 00:30:57.039
<v Speaker 2>though a lot of these people don't believe in you

484
00:30:57.079 --> 00:30:58.960
<v Speaker 2>were you didn't didn't believe you were gonna make it

485
00:30:58.960 --> 00:31:02.400
<v Speaker 2>this far. I certainly believe that you that you couldn't

486
00:31:02.400 --> 00:31:04.519
<v Speaker 2>make it this far. But look look at you now,

487
00:31:04.599 --> 00:31:06.480
<v Speaker 2>you were a member, you were the number one contender

488
00:31:06.480 --> 00:31:09.799
<v Speaker 2>for the NXT Championship. And it's also in my understanding

489
00:31:09.839 --> 00:31:12.160
<v Speaker 2>that this match is not just a fight for the title.

490
00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:15.160
<v Speaker 2>There's also a fight for everybody. You're going to try

491
00:31:15.200 --> 00:31:21.960
<v Speaker 2>to inspire and uplift again. Yes, yes, he definitely should

492
00:31:22.000 --> 00:31:28.319
<v Speaker 2>inspire an uplift. Let me tell you, it's he's partially deaf.

493
00:31:28.720 --> 00:31:31.640
<v Speaker 2>He's partially deaf enough where he's got a speech impediment. Obviously,

494
00:31:31.640 --> 00:31:35.039
<v Speaker 2>we've all we all see that, and to not be

495
00:31:35.079 --> 00:31:38.400
<v Speaker 2>able to hear both your opponent going back and forth.

496
00:31:38.400 --> 00:31:42.119
<v Speaker 2>If you're not being able to hear your you know,

497
00:31:42.200 --> 00:31:44.680
<v Speaker 2>the crowd reactions and to make sure you're doing something

498
00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:52.720
<v Speaker 2>good like fine. But yes, he's definitely going to inspire

499
00:31:52.759 --> 00:31:57.200
<v Speaker 2>an uplift. It doesn't mean he's gonna win the title. Uh.

500
00:31:57.240 --> 00:31:58.799
<v Speaker 2>And I find it and I find that to be

501
00:31:58.880 --> 00:32:03.319
<v Speaker 2>admirable but also very very misleading. Life is cruel, Miles.

502
00:32:03.359 --> 00:32:06.680
<v Speaker 2>Good things always happen to good people, and I know,

503
00:32:06.799 --> 00:32:09.160
<v Speaker 2>deep down in my heart that you are a good person.

504
00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:12.119
<v Speaker 2>But however, this is not a Disney movie. You do

505
00:32:12.240 --> 00:32:14.359
<v Speaker 2>not get the happy ending. You don't get the dream

506
00:32:14.400 --> 00:32:16.640
<v Speaker 2>become true. You don't get to run off into the

507
00:32:16.680 --> 00:32:19.640
<v Speaker 2>sunset with my title. No, no, no, Because your dream

508
00:32:20.359 --> 00:32:23.079
<v Speaker 2>was two weeks ago when you won the Battle Royal yep.

509
00:32:23.839 --> 00:32:27.200
<v Speaker 2>Your dream was last week when you beat Ethan Page yep.

510
00:32:27.480 --> 00:32:30.000
<v Speaker 2>But make no mistake, This Sunday, when you step into

511
00:32:30.039 --> 00:32:32.640
<v Speaker 2>the ring with me and that bell rings, your dreams

512
00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:36.640
<v Speaker 2>will die because you will realize very quickly that you

513
00:32:36.680 --> 00:32:39.119
<v Speaker 2>are standing in the ring with the ruler, the destroyer,

514
00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:42.720
<v Speaker 2>the bringer of war. And I'll be merciless, relentless, and

515
00:32:42.839 --> 00:32:45.839
<v Speaker 2>unforgiving because you want me to treat you like everyone else.

516
00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:49.240
<v Speaker 2>You want me to treat you like you're just like them. Right,

517
00:32:49.319 --> 00:32:53.359
<v Speaker 2>So be it. Join the line, join the lists of victims.

518
00:32:53.400 --> 00:32:55.759
<v Speaker 2>Your fate will end in the destruction at the hands

519
00:32:55.759 --> 00:33:00.200
<v Speaker 2>of Obafemi. I will be in then, Miles respond. I

520
00:33:00.200 --> 00:33:02.519
<v Speaker 2>will be out here by myself, Oba. I might be

521
00:33:02.519 --> 00:33:04.680
<v Speaker 2>out here by myself, Oba, but I'm not alone to

522
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:08.319
<v Speaker 2>Tavian Ran and Charlie have been helping me train day

523
00:33:08.319 --> 00:33:11.599
<v Speaker 2>and night. They're not only the ones. They're not only ones.

524
00:33:11.640 --> 00:33:14.400
<v Speaker 2>I have my back. I have an entire community. Every

525
00:33:14.440 --> 00:33:16.920
<v Speaker 2>kid who feels different. Every parent who worries about their

526
00:33:17.000 --> 00:33:19.960
<v Speaker 2>child isn't going to fit in. Yeah. Oh, but you're right.

527
00:33:20.039 --> 00:33:22.319
<v Speaker 2>This is more than just winning a championship. It's about

528
00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:24.640
<v Speaker 2>making a statement. So go ahead write me off as

529
00:33:24.759 --> 00:33:28.240
<v Speaker 2>just another victim. Underestimate me, and like I said before,

530
00:33:28.440 --> 00:33:32.559
<v Speaker 2>certainly wouldn't be the first doctors, nurses, and they misunderstood,

531
00:33:32.680 --> 00:33:36.759
<v Speaker 2>misunderestimated me. Every opponent I stepped in in front of

532
00:33:36.799 --> 00:33:40.279
<v Speaker 2>an amateur wrestling underestimated me. Hell, I'm pretty sure some

533
00:33:40.319 --> 00:33:43.599
<v Speaker 2>of the coaches at NXT Tryout underestimated me. But I

534
00:33:43.680 --> 00:33:46.160
<v Speaker 2>proved them wrong. And at Battleground it's going to be

535
00:33:47.640 --> 00:33:50.720
<v Speaker 2>the toughest match of my career. And I've been surviving

536
00:33:50.759 --> 00:33:53.799
<v Speaker 2>battles ever since I was born. Oba, But you're right,

537
00:33:53.960 --> 00:33:57.400
<v Speaker 2>this ain't a Disney movie. But every ruler falls and

538
00:33:58.720 --> 00:34:00.799
<v Speaker 2>I might be hard of hearing, but when I shot

539
00:34:00.880 --> 00:34:03.319
<v Speaker 2>the world at Backleground, they're going to hear the one, two,

540
00:34:03.359 --> 00:34:09.519
<v Speaker 2>three loud and clear. I like this promo. It was

541
00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:13.840
<v Speaker 2>just this guy speaks, says what he says. This guy

542
00:34:13.840 --> 00:34:16.039
<v Speaker 2>speaks says what he says, and then they then they

543
00:34:16.119 --> 00:34:18.840
<v Speaker 2>walk out of the ring. No shenanigans, there's no beating

544
00:34:18.840 --> 00:34:23.000
<v Speaker 2>anybody up between the two of them. It was just

545
00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:26.480
<v Speaker 2>this is what I'm saying, this is what you're saying. Okay,

546
00:34:26.559 --> 00:34:33.920
<v Speaker 2>buy good, good good promo. Then then after Milesbourne leaves

547
00:34:33.960 --> 00:34:37.719
<v Speaker 2>the ring, Jasper Troy from LFG, the guy who went

548
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:41.400
<v Speaker 2>LG I talked about before, the guy with the big chains. Uh.

549
00:34:41.599 --> 00:34:47.719
<v Speaker 2>He drops Obafemi with a running body block and nails Uh,

550
00:34:47.920 --> 00:34:52.119
<v Speaker 2>nails Femi with a black hole slam. Born then storms

551
00:34:52.159 --> 00:34:54.599
<v Speaker 2>back into the ring to make the save. Femi refuses

552
00:34:55.159 --> 00:34:58.960
<v Speaker 2>help from Born, and Borne hands the NXT title back

553
00:34:59.000 --> 00:35:03.159
<v Speaker 2>to Femi. Femi and Borne have a standoff to close

554
00:35:03.159 --> 00:35:09.519
<v Speaker 2>the segment. Okay, this segment they I'm about to talk

555
00:35:09.559 --> 00:35:13.880
<v Speaker 2>about just piss me off. I don't understand. So we're

556
00:35:14.039 --> 00:35:17.199
<v Speaker 2>in Av's office. She's pissed at Ricky Saints and Eaton

557
00:35:17.280 --> 00:35:21.440
<v Speaker 2>Page because they are fighting again, and Saints wants to

558
00:35:21.440 --> 00:35:24.199
<v Speaker 2>finish the back and forth. Pages is having too much fun,

559
00:35:24.440 --> 00:35:29.159
<v Speaker 2>and Saints offers to put the NXT. So, okay, so

560
00:35:29.199 --> 00:35:31.760
<v Speaker 2>this is what happens. Saints says, he wants to fight

561
00:35:31.800 --> 00:35:33.760
<v Speaker 2>you some, Paige, and he wants to put the NXT

562
00:35:34.000 --> 00:35:36.800
<v Speaker 2>North American title on the line. Page says he likes

563
00:35:36.840 --> 00:35:42.079
<v Speaker 2>us out of that. Then Ava reminds them, okay, fine, fine,

564
00:35:42.519 --> 00:35:45.480
<v Speaker 2>Ava reminds Paige AND's think that they don't make the matches.

565
00:35:45.559 --> 00:35:48.559
<v Speaker 2>She does, and Sean Legacy has a claim to the

566
00:35:48.599 --> 00:35:53.519
<v Speaker 2>title after the victory tonight, and then she makes the

567
00:35:53.760 --> 00:35:59.239
<v Speaker 2>match that they ask for in the first place. She says,

568
00:35:59.440 --> 00:36:04.480
<v Speaker 2>so the American title will be on the line. So

569
00:36:04.840 --> 00:36:08.039
<v Speaker 2>she complains because they're making a match for the NXT

570
00:36:08.199 --> 00:36:13.800
<v Speaker 2>North American title. So she complains that they don't make

571
00:36:13.800 --> 00:36:16.760
<v Speaker 2>the match. She does, and then she ends up making

572
00:36:16.800 --> 00:36:20.320
<v Speaker 2>the match like what And I'm sitting and I'm sitting

573
00:36:20.320 --> 00:36:24.440
<v Speaker 2>there watching this, going I can't wait until the podcast,

574
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:28.039
<v Speaker 2>until I until I do the podcast, because it's gonna

575
00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:37.360
<v Speaker 2>be like, what was the point of that. I know

576
00:36:37.400 --> 00:36:40.360
<v Speaker 2>that Shawn Michaels can't be on TV and can't be

577
00:36:40.440 --> 00:36:44.599
<v Speaker 2>like the prominent figure, but Ava's got to go, or

578
00:36:44.599 --> 00:36:47.159
<v Speaker 2>at least somebody who's giving her lines needs to give

579
00:36:47.159 --> 00:36:51.039
<v Speaker 2>her better lines, because she just that that was the

580
00:36:51.159 --> 00:36:54.480
<v Speaker 2>stupidest sounding thing I've ever heard in my entire life.

581
00:36:55.559 --> 00:36:58.199
<v Speaker 2>Then we have a problem with Tony D'Angelo. Tony D'angelo's

582
00:36:58.239 --> 00:37:01.079
<v Speaker 2>going against Stacks at Battleground as well, guess it's gonna be.

583
00:37:01.280 --> 00:37:03.280
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be a good match. I'm not gonna say that,

584
00:37:03.320 --> 00:37:06.039
<v Speaker 2>but I have to. I have to tell you. Nobody

585
00:37:06.119 --> 00:37:10.039
<v Speaker 2>knows where Cruciphena is. Adrian and Rizzo who to me,

586
00:37:10.280 --> 00:37:14.199
<v Speaker 2>she's the reason why we watched the family. Get my point.

587
00:37:14.519 --> 00:37:16.440
<v Speaker 2>She's nowhere to be found. She's locked up in a

588
00:37:16.480 --> 00:37:18.400
<v Speaker 2>safe house. She's not in a safe house. I don't

589
00:37:18.400 --> 00:37:21.519
<v Speaker 2>know what's going on. The problems back and forth are

590
00:37:21.519 --> 00:37:26.280
<v Speaker 2>getting old. It's like I said that Tony and Sax

591
00:37:26.360 --> 00:37:28.480
<v Speaker 2>is gonna be a great match at Battleground. I think

592
00:37:29.360 --> 00:37:31.760
<v Speaker 2>I think Sax is gonna win. That's my that's my

593
00:37:31.840 --> 00:37:35.079
<v Speaker 2>impression that Sax will win. To kind of throw at

594
00:37:35.079 --> 00:37:38.800
<v Speaker 2>a prediction in there, but at the end of the day,

595
00:37:38.920 --> 00:37:44.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't care, I really don't. I mean, it's it's

596
00:37:44.519 --> 00:37:49.559
<v Speaker 2>interesting sort of the fourth match of the night. Now,

597
00:37:49.599 --> 00:37:51.599
<v Speaker 2>this match would have been the match of the night

598
00:37:51.639 --> 00:37:54.840
<v Speaker 2>if the triple threat from earlier what didn't happen. This

599
00:37:55.000 --> 00:37:59.920
<v Speaker 2>was a great match between No I'm thinking of a

600
00:38:00.039 --> 00:38:03.039
<v Speaker 2>wrong match anyway, it doesn't matter. Folla Hanley versus Lolavice

601
00:38:03.719 --> 00:38:05.679
<v Speaker 2>great match. I was thinking of a different match. I

602
00:38:05.719 --> 00:38:08.960
<v Speaker 2>will talk about that later Foula Mattress Fella Hanley versus

603
00:38:09.000 --> 00:38:11.400
<v Speaker 2>Little Ice. This was a great match, but a lot

604
00:38:11.400 --> 00:38:14.000
<v Speaker 2>of good back and forth stuff. At the end of

605
00:38:14.039 --> 00:38:20.280
<v Speaker 2>the match, Lola wins with the with the spinning backfist

606
00:38:20.400 --> 00:38:23.039
<v Speaker 2>which comes out of nowhere and like all of a sudden,

607
00:38:23.039 --> 00:38:26.159
<v Speaker 2>it's I think who else does that? It's like uh,

608
00:38:26.440 --> 00:38:29.119
<v Speaker 2>Carrie saying, I think she does a spinning backfist too.

609
00:38:29.159 --> 00:38:32.639
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a great move. I love Lola Ice.

610
00:38:33.079 --> 00:38:36.599
<v Speaker 2>Please push her like once once Stephanie leaves, give her

611
00:38:36.599 --> 00:38:38.840
<v Speaker 2>a title shot like she I think she deserves it.

612
00:38:40.760 --> 00:38:42.960
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, so anyway, the winner of that match was Lolavice.

613
00:38:43.639 --> 00:38:46.280
<v Speaker 2>Then Kellik and Kaid had to sit down interview with

614
00:38:46.280 --> 00:38:50.599
<v Speaker 2>Stephanie for Care. This was like Stephanie's promo. She talked

615
00:38:50.599 --> 00:38:53.519
<v Speaker 2>a lot about, you know, all her journey through the

616
00:38:53.559 --> 00:38:56.199
<v Speaker 2>through the wrestling world over the years and all the

617
00:38:56.679 --> 00:38:59.039
<v Speaker 2>trials and tribulations she went. There was a really great interview.

618
00:38:59.039 --> 00:39:01.360
<v Speaker 2>Should definitely watch it. I'm not gonna go through the

619
00:39:01.400 --> 00:39:04.519
<v Speaker 2>whole thing, but it's to set up, obviously, the final

620
00:39:04.559 --> 00:39:08.800
<v Speaker 2>set up between Stephanie and Jordan Grace. Now hold my

621
00:39:08.840 --> 00:39:13.159
<v Speaker 2>feet to the fire. This is what I think. I think,

622
00:39:15.119 --> 00:39:19.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if if Roxanne and Julia weren't just

623
00:39:20.039 --> 00:39:25.360
<v Speaker 2>signed by the main roster shows how I was going

624
00:39:25.440 --> 00:39:31.280
<v Speaker 2>to say that Jordan Grace wins the title and Stephanie

625
00:39:31.519 --> 00:39:35.639
<v Speaker 2>like goes up to the main roster. There's enough women

626
00:39:35.679 --> 00:39:38.280
<v Speaker 2>to carry that, to carry Jordan Grace as the champion

627
00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:44.280
<v Speaker 2>with everybody else gunning for her, I think I'm gonna

628
00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:47.320
<v Speaker 2>stand by that. I honestly do think that's gonna happen.

629
00:39:48.159 --> 00:39:52.079
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't, like, because you know,

630
00:39:52.320 --> 00:39:58.639
<v Speaker 2>I think Stephanie enjoys her time in NXT, but after

631
00:39:58.679 --> 00:40:01.119
<v Speaker 2>the two matches she had on in it ROSS, Stephanie's

632
00:40:01.159 --> 00:40:05.280
<v Speaker 2>clearly ready for the main roster. She needs to get

633
00:40:05.320 --> 00:40:06.800
<v Speaker 2>up there. She needs to give him a boost, she

634
00:40:06.800 --> 00:40:10.639
<v Speaker 2>needs to give herself a boost. Jordan Grace, excuse me.

635
00:40:11.880 --> 00:40:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Jordan Grace is very content and doing well in the

636
00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:16.280
<v Speaker 2>n XT, and I think she would make a great

637
00:40:16.360 --> 00:40:20.519
<v Speaker 2>champion and go against somebody like Zaria or Lolavice. There's people,

638
00:40:20.639 --> 00:40:26.840
<v Speaker 2>there's people, so feats and fire. Jordan Grace wins the

639
00:40:26.880 --> 00:40:29.800
<v Speaker 2>title and Stephanie eventually in the draft or whenever. However,

640
00:40:29.840 --> 00:40:32.000
<v Speaker 2>that's gonna happen. She'll go up to the main roster.

641
00:40:32.119 --> 00:40:35.880
<v Speaker 2>That's what I believe is gonna happen. Fifth match of

642
00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:38.519
<v Speaker 2>the night was Zaria versus Klannie Jordan. This is the

643
00:40:38.559 --> 00:40:40.880
<v Speaker 2>match I was going to talk about. Was a great match.

644
00:40:42.280 --> 00:40:45.679
<v Speaker 2>This If Claudie wins, she got the North American Women's

645
00:40:45.719 --> 00:40:50.000
<v Speaker 2>title match. Long story short, she does win the match.

646
00:40:50.039 --> 00:40:52.639
<v Speaker 2>It was a great match, back and forth the whole time.

647
00:40:53.840 --> 00:40:56.800
<v Speaker 2>Zaria is clearly setting up something with soul Ruka for

648
00:40:56.840 --> 00:40:59.760
<v Speaker 2>the future. I can't wait to see that love so

649
00:41:00.039 --> 00:41:03.559
<v Speaker 2>Ruka loves Zaria. Sorry, I'm waiting for Zaria versus Jordan Grace,

650
00:41:03.599 --> 00:41:06.960
<v Speaker 2>to be honest, that's the match I want to see.

651
00:41:07.400 --> 00:41:12.440
<v Speaker 2>But for now they're focused on the North American Women's Championship,

652
00:41:12.440 --> 00:41:15.239
<v Speaker 2>which is fine. Colonie Jordan does end up winning the

653
00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:20.239
<v Speaker 2>match at the end with via roll up, which now

654
00:41:20.280 --> 00:41:24.079
<v Speaker 2>grants her a title shot at so Ruka's North American Championship.

655
00:41:24.119 --> 00:41:26.719
<v Speaker 2>Do I think Colonie Jordan's gonna win? No, I think

656
00:41:26.719 --> 00:41:30.239
<v Speaker 2>so Ruka is going to retain the North American Championship.

657
00:41:33.159 --> 00:41:35.119
<v Speaker 2>To be honest, she really hasn't defended it. I don't

658
00:41:35.119 --> 00:41:37.440
<v Speaker 2>know if she's defended it at all since Dannon delivered

659
00:41:37.440 --> 00:41:40.840
<v Speaker 2>like she had one non title match and then Zaria

660
00:41:40.880 --> 00:41:43.360
<v Speaker 2>has been fighting her battles so that they need to

661
00:41:43.400 --> 00:41:45.840
<v Speaker 2>figure that out. But it was this. It was a

662
00:41:45.880 --> 00:41:47.679
<v Speaker 2>really good match. And again, if it wasn't for the

663
00:41:47.679 --> 00:41:49.480
<v Speaker 2>triple third match in the beginning, this this could have

664
00:41:49.480 --> 00:41:53.800
<v Speaker 2>been the match of the night. So this is the

665
00:41:53.840 --> 00:41:55.920
<v Speaker 2>match card and these are my predictions before we get

666
00:41:55.960 --> 00:41:59.199
<v Speaker 2>into the end. We have so Ruka versus Colonia Jordan

667
00:41:59.280 --> 00:42:01.519
<v Speaker 2>for the NAMA TE Women Championship. I just said so,

668
00:42:01.599 --> 00:42:04.440
<v Speaker 2>I think so Ruka will retain. We have Hank and

669
00:42:04.480 --> 00:42:06.800
<v Speaker 2>Tank and Josh Briggs versus The Calling and a six

670
00:42:06.880 --> 00:42:08.920
<v Speaker 2>VN tag match. I think the Calling is gonna win

671
00:42:08.960 --> 00:42:12.760
<v Speaker 2>only because Hank, Tank and Josh are really not a

672
00:42:12.800 --> 00:42:16.119
<v Speaker 2>group and the Calling is. I think that there's shenanigans

673
00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:19.599
<v Speaker 2>and the Calling ends up winning the match with shenanigans. Again,

674
00:42:19.639 --> 00:42:23.119
<v Speaker 2>we talked about Tony and Stax Tony versus Stax. I

675
00:42:23.159 --> 00:42:26.280
<v Speaker 2>believe that Stax is gonna win, but I flip a coin.

676
00:42:26.639 --> 00:42:28.599
<v Speaker 2>Tony could win, Stax could win. I could see where

677
00:42:28.599 --> 00:42:33.119
<v Speaker 2>Stax wins and and uh like uh, Christophina comes out

678
00:42:33.320 --> 00:42:38.599
<v Speaker 2>and beats up Tony for Stax, maybe even her and

679
00:42:38.719 --> 00:42:44.000
<v Speaker 2>maybe even him and Adrian Rizzo who knows Adrian Rizzo

680
00:42:44.039 --> 00:42:49.239
<v Speaker 2>who cares. We have the women's championship Matt Stephanie versus

681
00:42:49.320 --> 00:42:53.039
<v Speaker 2>Jordan Grace again. I think that George, I think that's

682
00:42:53.159 --> 00:42:55.400
<v Speaker 2>Jordan could win. I honest think that Jordan could take

683
00:42:55.400 --> 00:42:58.039
<v Speaker 2>the title so that Stephanie can move up because that

684
00:42:58.039 --> 00:43:00.920
<v Speaker 2>would be good for everybody. I believe we have all

685
00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:04.119
<v Speaker 2>but Femi and the champion versus Miles Bourne. Again. There's

686
00:43:04.239 --> 00:43:07.280
<v Speaker 2>no chance in hell of Miles Bourne winning this match

687
00:43:07.440 --> 00:43:11.320
<v Speaker 2>if he does. To be honest, to be honest, if

688
00:43:11.400 --> 00:43:16.360
<v Speaker 2>Milesbourne pulls this off, okay, cool, it's a travesty. It's

689
00:43:16.360 --> 00:43:21.800
<v Speaker 2>a travesty like especially and and by the way, you

690
00:43:21.840 --> 00:43:24.039
<v Speaker 2>can kind of tell them that Oba's gonna win too,

691
00:43:24.079 --> 00:43:26.920
<v Speaker 2>because the only way that Milesbourne is gonna win is

692
00:43:26.920 --> 00:43:31.199
<v Speaker 2>if is if the dude from LFG comes back in Troy.

693
00:43:31.800 --> 00:43:36.039
<v Speaker 2>He comes back in and and and costs over the match.

694
00:43:38.480 --> 00:43:42.360
<v Speaker 2>I truly believe that he's not going to that. OBA

695
00:43:42.440 --> 00:43:44.159
<v Speaker 2>will just be Miles Bourne and then they'll set up

696
00:43:44.159 --> 00:43:47.039
<v Speaker 2>the match between the two of them. Were your maagine

697
00:43:47.079 --> 00:43:49.840
<v Speaker 2>going from LFG like directly into the main events scene

698
00:43:50.000 --> 00:43:55.400
<v Speaker 2>at uh at franticst and then we have the Joe

699
00:43:55.559 --> 00:43:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Joe Hendry versus Trick Williams for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship.

700
00:44:00.880 --> 00:44:03.920
<v Speaker 2>I've avoided talking about this subject except for the whole

701
00:44:04.000 --> 00:44:09.280
<v Speaker 2>Trick rap thing. We had a concert with Joe Hendry.

702
00:44:09.719 --> 00:44:11.800
<v Speaker 2>He comes out, he sings a song, great, it's a

703
00:44:11.840 --> 00:44:15.320
<v Speaker 2>funny song. He shows a video of him of Trick

704
00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:17.320
<v Speaker 2>and mellow like running through that. I remember that the

705
00:44:17.800 --> 00:44:20.760
<v Speaker 2>haunted house thing. And then Joe Hendry's face comes as

706
00:44:21.079 --> 00:44:24.719
<v Speaker 2>Trick screams and tricks. Trick gets a little butt hurt

707
00:44:24.719 --> 00:44:27.840
<v Speaker 2>and he comes out and starts complaining to Joe Hendry.

708
00:44:28.360 --> 00:44:31.480
<v Speaker 2>They have a little bit of a tussle. Trick Williams

709
00:44:32.159 --> 00:44:35.800
<v Speaker 2>goes for the trick shot and Joe Hendry takes a

710
00:44:35.880 --> 00:44:38.760
<v Speaker 2>guitar and just bashes him in the knee and the

711
00:44:39.239 --> 00:44:45.039
<v Speaker 2>guitar obliterates and Trick Williams complicitly is like holding his knee.

712
00:44:45.039 --> 00:44:47.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't I don't think it truly was hurt. I

713
00:44:47.079 --> 00:44:48.639
<v Speaker 2>think it was a ruse. It was a you know,

714
00:44:49.639 --> 00:44:55.360
<v Speaker 2>but but yeah, no, So Trick Williams first he gets

715
00:44:55.360 --> 00:44:58.119
<v Speaker 2>a guitar to the knee, the guitar obliterates, and then

716
00:44:58.239 --> 00:45:03.639
<v Speaker 2>Joe Hendry does standing ovation on choke slam on Trick

717
00:45:03.679 --> 00:45:08.880
<v Speaker 2>Williams now at the end of NXT, which, by the way,

718
00:45:08.880 --> 00:45:15.920
<v Speaker 2>the show ended as soon as that was done. At

719
00:45:15.960 --> 00:45:20.519
<v Speaker 2>the end of NXT, Joe Henry stood tall before Battleground. Now,

720
00:45:21.320 --> 00:45:26.360
<v Speaker 2>if you go with the way things go with last

721
00:45:26.400 --> 00:45:31.840
<v Speaker 2>episodes before ples, not all the time, but the majority

722
00:45:31.840 --> 00:45:34.679
<v Speaker 2>of the time, the person who is standing tall at

723
00:45:34.679 --> 00:45:37.239
<v Speaker 2>the end of the go home episode is usually the

724
00:45:37.280 --> 00:45:41.039
<v Speaker 2>one that loses the next match. If that's the case,

725
00:45:41.840 --> 00:45:44.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying it will be, but if that's the case,

726
00:45:45.639 --> 00:45:48.760
<v Speaker 2>that means that Trick Williams could be the TNA World

727
00:45:48.840 --> 00:45:56.480
<v Speaker 2>Heavyweight Champion. Really you think like he would have to

728
00:45:56.559 --> 00:45:58.920
<v Speaker 2>go on both brands, right, Like, how does that even work?

729
00:46:00.000 --> 00:46:02.880
<v Speaker 2>If Trick Williams was the North was the NXT World

730
00:46:02.920 --> 00:46:07.119
<v Speaker 2>to everyweight champion, how would that work? Like, I'm so

731
00:46:07.159 --> 00:46:09.039
<v Speaker 2>excited to see what happens. I have no by and

732
00:46:09.079 --> 00:46:10.920
<v Speaker 2>by the way, and I was listening to Busted Opener

733
00:46:10.920 --> 00:46:15.000
<v Speaker 2>earlier and and Dave lok Greco was talking about the

734
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:17.000
<v Speaker 2>cool thing about this match is you have no idea

735
00:46:17.039 --> 00:46:20.400
<v Speaker 2>who's going to win this match, which makes it like

736
00:46:20.480 --> 00:46:22.599
<v Speaker 2>you want them. Oh and by the way, let's not

737
00:46:22.599 --> 00:46:26.320
<v Speaker 2>forget too that NXT background is going head to head

738
00:46:26.880 --> 00:46:29.199
<v Speaker 2>with Double or Nothing in a w in the same night.

739
00:46:29.320 --> 00:46:32.719
<v Speaker 2>This is the aw pay per view and Doubler and

740
00:46:33.480 --> 00:46:36.199
<v Speaker 2>Battleground NXT is on the same night at the same time,

741
00:46:36.639 --> 00:46:39.320
<v Speaker 2>So that'll be interesting to see about the numbers. But

742
00:46:42.000 --> 00:46:46.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't who wins. Who wins the match? Okay, if

743
00:46:46.119 --> 00:46:50.719
<v Speaker 2>I have to do a prediction, I said Trick Williams wins,

744
00:46:51.719 --> 00:46:54.760
<v Speaker 2>and he's the NXT or he's the TNA World Everyweight Champion.

745
00:46:56.199 --> 00:46:59.559
<v Speaker 2>See if I'm right. And that's the end of the episode.

746
00:47:00.159 --> 00:47:04.079
<v Speaker 2>Tell me, guys what you thinks. I I may or

747
00:47:04.079 --> 00:47:05.800
<v Speaker 2>may not do, depending on how things are going in

748
00:47:05.840 --> 00:47:07.960
<v Speaker 2>my life. I may or may not do a Battleground.

749
00:47:09.559 --> 00:47:11.679
<v Speaker 2>So it's on Sunday night at eight o'clock and I

750
00:47:11.719 --> 00:47:13.519
<v Speaker 2>have to go to work Brighton early the next morning.

751
00:47:13.559 --> 00:47:16.480
<v Speaker 2>So I'm gonna try. I'm gonna try to do a

752
00:47:16.519 --> 00:47:18.920
<v Speaker 2>review for Battleground. If not, it may just be an

753
00:47:18.920 --> 00:47:21.480
<v Speaker 2>instant reaction after the show is over. And then but

754
00:47:21.480 --> 00:47:23.280
<v Speaker 2>there's a there's a lot of matches on this card.

755
00:47:23.320 --> 00:47:27.000
<v Speaker 2>There is hold on there is one, two, three, four

756
00:47:27.079 --> 00:47:30.400
<v Speaker 2>or five. There's six matches on and usually the nxt

757
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:32.440
<v Speaker 2>pl is only go two and a half hours, so

758
00:47:32.480 --> 00:47:34.559
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be interesting to see how that goes. But

759
00:47:36.760 --> 00:47:39.800
<v Speaker 2>I but I think that I think I'm gonna try

760
00:47:39.840 --> 00:47:41.360
<v Speaker 2>to I'm gonna try to do even if it's just

761
00:47:42.280 --> 00:47:45.360
<v Speaker 2>an instant reaction after the after the PLA, and I'll

762
00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:48.000
<v Speaker 2>send it to Matt and have them post it because
