5
00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:26.679
<v Speaker 1>that being said, we only have one question for you.

6
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:39.240
<v Speaker 1>Ah we thought, so let's get the show started right now.

7
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:46.520
<v Speaker 2>Heylor everyone, this is Jay to do your NXT deadline review.

8
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:54.200
<v Speaker 2>Deadline was last night, that would be December seventh, and

9
00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:58.079
<v Speaker 2>let me say it was a really good pl even

10
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:00.399
<v Speaker 2>for MXT, which is saying something because I think he

11
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:06.120
<v Speaker 2>puts on banger ples generally speaking. I apologize for getting

12
00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:07.599
<v Speaker 2>this done so late in the day to day, but

13
00:01:08.680 --> 00:01:11.560
<v Speaker 2>haven't been feeling too well and I tried to do

14
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:13.799
<v Speaker 2>it before I head off to bed. I know, it's

15
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:16.680
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of early for me. Actually it's seven thirty,

16
00:01:16.719 --> 00:01:18.519
<v Speaker 2>but I just need to get to bed soon. But

17
00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:20.480
<v Speaker 2>I didn't want to go to bed without giving you

18
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:26.519
<v Speaker 2>my click quick thoughts on Deadline, which featured two Iron

19
00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:31.439
<v Speaker 2>Survivor Challenge matches, a men's and a women's Iron Survivor

20
00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Challenge match. And let me tell you this was it

21
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:43.000
<v Speaker 2>was interesting. There was a lot of interesting things going

22
00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:47.879
<v Speaker 2>on with this. Number one, I did it in They

23
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:53.879
<v Speaker 2>did this ple in the Armory, a place called the

24
00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:59.439
<v Speaker 2>Armory in Minneapolis, so excuse me. So if you remember

25
00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:01.719
<v Speaker 2>on smack Down the other night, they were from the

26
00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:07.040
<v Speaker 2>Target Center in Minneapolis, and they did the nxt PL

27
00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:10.280
<v Speaker 2>from the Armory, which when I originally thought about, I

28
00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:13.159
<v Speaker 2>thought of one of the TNA events they have where

29
00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:17.039
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of small, but this Armory was actually really big.

30
00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:19.759
<v Speaker 2>I mean it was the size of having to me,

31
00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:24.120
<v Speaker 2>it looked the size of a small arena, So yeah,

32
00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:27.319
<v Speaker 2>it was. It was really good PL. A couple of

33
00:02:27.319 --> 00:02:29.120
<v Speaker 2>things I just want to mention off the top. Number

34
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:36.800
<v Speaker 2>one was I found the lineup fascinating. And if you

35
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:39.319
<v Speaker 2>if you know, I know, I've been saying that they've

36
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:41.479
<v Speaker 2>been they've been highlighting women way more than they've been

37
00:02:41.520 --> 00:02:45.439
<v Speaker 2>highlighting the men lately, and this PL was a perfect

38
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:50.800
<v Speaker 2>example of that because they started this with the Men's

39
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:54.719
<v Speaker 2>Iron Survivor Challenge and ended it with the Women's Iron

40
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:58.759
<v Speaker 2>Survivor Challenge. And the reason why that's very significant is

41
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:04.719
<v Speaker 2>because they did the men's world title match between Trick

42
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:10.599
<v Speaker 2>Williams and Ridge Holland second to last, and they had

43
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:16.680
<v Speaker 2>the Women's Iron Survivor Challenge last they may event it

44
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:20.879
<v Speaker 2>main evented the night. To me, that is extremely significant

45
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:22.759
<v Speaker 2>and we're gonna talk more about that in the future.

46
00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:31.199
<v Speaker 2>But but again, the like they they really are highlighting

47
00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:37.520
<v Speaker 2>the women of NXT right now really much so. So Yeah,

48
00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:43.960
<v Speaker 2>so before the before deadline started, Ava announced that because

49
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:49.159
<v Speaker 2>of the injury to Eddie Thorpe after the show was

50
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:53.199
<v Speaker 2>over on Tuesday, that he would not be competing in

51
00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:55.360
<v Speaker 2>the Iron Survivor Challenge, but she didn't say who was

52
00:03:55.400 --> 00:03:59.360
<v Speaker 2>going to be taking his spot. I think most people

53
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:03.560
<v Speaker 2>think heard that it was going to be one of

54
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:08.319
<v Speaker 2>the other three competitors in the Fatal four Way, but

55
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:12.080
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't so and I have to say, so let's

56
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:13.680
<v Speaker 2>get it, let's get into So the men's Irons if

57
00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:15.360
<v Speaker 2>I ever challenged, was the first thing that the first

58
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:18.199
<v Speaker 2>thing that happened. The first two people to start were

59
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:27.160
<v Speaker 2>were Javon Yeah, Javon Evans and Wes Lee And can

60
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:30.759
<v Speaker 2>I just say, Javan Evans, if he's not now, will

61
00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:37.120
<v Speaker 2>be a star someday. Javan Evans, the way he does

62
00:04:37.160 --> 00:04:41.160
<v Speaker 2>the moves around the ring is just spectacular and I

63
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:43.560
<v Speaker 2>don't I definitely think you know that the kid's young,

64
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:49.720
<v Speaker 2>the kids like like eighteen nineteen years old. I apologize

65
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:51.759
<v Speaker 2>for the coughing, but unfortunately, like I said, I'm not

66
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:58.480
<v Speaker 2>feeling well. But he uh, he was in this and

67
00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:00.600
<v Speaker 2>he deserved to be in this this year. But he

68
00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:04.879
<v Speaker 2>definitely is going to win this or something big in

69
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:10.120
<v Speaker 2>the future. Javon Evans is he needs a boke up

70
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:12.959
<v Speaker 2>a little bit maybe, but generally speaking, he is or

71
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:21.519
<v Speaker 2>will be a star. That being said, so the next

72
00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:23.600
<v Speaker 2>person to come down, So those two, those two fought

73
00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:25.240
<v Speaker 2>for a while, and then the next person that comes

74
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:32.120
<v Speaker 2>down was, oh, I apologize to give me one second.

75
00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:37.600
<v Speaker 2>So Wesley had the first fall and gained the first point.

76
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:41.759
<v Speaker 2>The third person to come down was Nathan Fraser, who

77
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:44.240
<v Speaker 2>I've said last week and if you watched it at all,

78
00:05:44.279 --> 00:05:46.680
<v Speaker 2>you know he pulled double duty. He was in the

79
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:50.279
<v Speaker 2>Ironsavira Challenge as well as defending the NXT Tag Team titles,

80
00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:52.759
<v Speaker 2>which we'll talk about later. But Nathan Fraser was a

81
00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:59.240
<v Speaker 2>third person to come in, and um, so Wesley went

82
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:06.160
<v Speaker 2>for the frogs. It was yeah, Fraser had hit a

83
00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:13.160
<v Speaker 2>spinning kick on Evans. There was just so much going

84
00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:18.480
<v Speaker 2>on and eventually the clock counted down again. So just

85
00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:20.399
<v Speaker 2>just to kind of I didn't say this before, just

86
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:23.360
<v Speaker 2>to kind of give a highlight, there's twenty five minutes total.

87
00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:26.680
<v Speaker 2>Each person that starts with two people each. Another person

88
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:28.720
<v Speaker 2>comes down every five minutes. If you get a pinfull,

89
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:32.959
<v Speaker 2>you get a point or submission, and if you're the

90
00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:35.160
<v Speaker 2>one to submit or get pinned, you have to go

91
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:40.639
<v Speaker 2>ninety seconds into a penalty box. So okay, After that,

92
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:47.439
<v Speaker 2>the next person to come in was Ethan Paige and

93
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:55.399
<v Speaker 2>Fraser ended up Nathan Fraser. Nathan Fraser ended up getting

94
00:06:55.399 --> 00:06:59.480
<v Speaker 2>an insight cradle on Page eventually for a three count,

95
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:01.879
<v Speaker 2>and so Nathan Frasier now has a point. So now,

96
00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:05.079
<v Speaker 2>and then Ethan Page went to the penalty box for

97
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:07.920
<v Speaker 2>ninety seconds and he just complained to complain about going,

98
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:12.560
<v Speaker 2>but eventually went in. Wesley tried to roll up on

99
00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:17.120
<v Speaker 2>Fraser and got a two count. Eventually, Paige got out

100
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:19.639
<v Speaker 2>of the penalty box and hit a spinning splash on Lee.

101
00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:23.120
<v Speaker 2>Paige went into the ring and hooked Frasier for the pinfall.

102
00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:26.439
<v Speaker 2>So now Ethan Page has a point as well, and

103
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:28.920
<v Speaker 2>Fraser starts to get a bloody nose, and now as

104
00:07:28.959 --> 00:07:32.120
<v Speaker 2>he's in the penalty box for ninety seconds. Match continued

105
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:40.040
<v Speaker 2>and went back and forth for a while with all

106
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:43.560
<v Speaker 2>four men and then the last fifth person came out. Now,

107
00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:48.240
<v Speaker 2>the other day, I chose Ethan Page to win this

108
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:54.759
<v Speaker 2>to win the Iron Survivor Challenge, and probably would have

109
00:07:54.800 --> 00:08:01.240
<v Speaker 2>been right. But I would have picked the surprise entrance

110
00:08:02.480 --> 00:08:06.120
<v Speaker 2>of the Iron Survivor Challenge had he been announced beforehand.

111
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:10.680
<v Speaker 2>So the surprise entrance is Oba Femi. Olba Femi makes

112
00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:13.319
<v Speaker 2>his return for the first time since Tony D'Angelo beat

113
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:18.360
<v Speaker 2>him for the second time, and he just he tore

114
00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:22.319
<v Speaker 2>the house down. He absolutely tore the house down. Eventually

115
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:24.839
<v Speaker 2>gets a quick he had he had a quick pinfall.

116
00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:32.039
<v Speaker 2>Uh so like so so Evans hit a form off

117
00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:36.600
<v Speaker 2>top rope but it barely phased Evans. This is and

118
00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:40.559
<v Speaker 2>then then Femi hit an upper cut to Evans for

119
00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:43.360
<v Speaker 2>the pinfall. So like the uppercut that Oba Femi hit

120
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:49.559
<v Speaker 2>on Javon Evans was crazy, crazy, crazy crazy. So now

121
00:08:49.559 --> 00:08:53.759
<v Speaker 2>Oba Femi has a point. So now everybody except Javon

122
00:08:53.879 --> 00:09:01.200
<v Speaker 2>Evans has one point. Evans has zero. So again we

123
00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:04.000
<v Speaker 2>go back. So Javan Evans goes in the penalty box.

124
00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:08.000
<v Speaker 2>He comes out of the penalty box and Evans hit.

125
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:10.000
<v Speaker 2>When he came out of the penalty box, he hit

126
00:09:10.039 --> 00:09:14.200
<v Speaker 2>a summer assault dive over the corner like he got

127
00:09:14.279 --> 00:09:18.240
<v Speaker 2>some air like this one again, Javon Evans. If he's

128
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:21.799
<v Speaker 2>not today, he someday will be a star, a star.

129
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:26.200
<v Speaker 2>So Evans jumped off the top of at the cutter

130
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:29.240
<v Speaker 2>on on Wes Lee for a pin and so Javan

131
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:31.120
<v Speaker 2>Evans now is the point. So now all five guys

132
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:36.519
<v Speaker 2>have one point. Javan Evans battled Femi in the ring

133
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:40.240
<v Speaker 2>with some strikes. Fraser dropkicks Femi, leading too Evans and

134
00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:44.720
<v Speaker 2>Fraser attacking Femi against turnbuckle. There were five minutes left

135
00:09:44.759 --> 00:09:46.720
<v Speaker 2>in the match. Femi punched Fraser while he was on

136
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:49.799
<v Speaker 2>the top rope. Lee was out of the penalty box

137
00:09:49.919 --> 00:09:52.399
<v Speaker 2>and then super kicked Femi and a trio of Evans,

138
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:55.960
<v Speaker 2>Fraser and Lee took turns kicking Femi, but Femi came

139
00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:58.320
<v Speaker 2>back with clothes lines to knock him down and Femi

140
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:02.759
<v Speaker 2>hit a pop up powder bomb on Evan and Page

141
00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:05.879
<v Speaker 2>snuck up from behind with a roll up of death

142
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:08.720
<v Speaker 2>to pin Femi and it worked. Now Ethan Page now

143
00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:13.039
<v Speaker 2>has two points and now Femi Obafemi is in the

144
00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:18.679
<v Speaker 2>penalty box. But Fraser then kicked, so so Obafemi goes

145
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:22.960
<v Speaker 2>in the penalty box. So then Fraser kicks Page and

146
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:28.360
<v Speaker 2>and then pins him and now Evans uh and now

147
00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:33.600
<v Speaker 2>Ethan Page. So now Javon Evans has two points. Ethan Page,

148
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:37.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, hold on a second Fraser superkick Page on

149
00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:39.200
<v Speaker 2>the to pin on Evans, and then Evans did a

150
00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:42.720
<v Speaker 2>crucifix pin on Page and it worked. So now Javon

151
00:10:42.799 --> 00:10:46.799
<v Speaker 2>Evans now has two points because he crucifix pinned Ethan Page.

152
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:51.360
<v Speaker 2>And now Ethan Page has to go into the penalty

153
00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:56.600
<v Speaker 2>box with Obafemi. This was hysterical. So Ethan Page is

154
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:00.120
<v Speaker 2>reluctant of course to go into the penalty box with

155
00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Oba Femi and then goes and he let me tell you,

156
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:04.759
<v Speaker 2>I know I've said this before, I'll say it again.

157
00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:08.600
<v Speaker 2>Ethan Page is such a good heel like I hope

158
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:10.519
<v Speaker 2>he like there was there was a vignette later on

159
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:13.720
<v Speaker 2>about how he felt bad about losing. I hope they

160
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:15.799
<v Speaker 2>do not turn him baby face because I have to

161
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:20.039
<v Speaker 2>tell you, von Or, Ethan Page is such a perfect

162
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:23.320
<v Speaker 2>heal the way he is so like he just I

163
00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:24.759
<v Speaker 2>don't want to go in there. I don't want to

164
00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:26.679
<v Speaker 2>go in there. Please don't make me go in there.

165
00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:30.399
<v Speaker 2>And then he proceeds to get his ass kicked by Obafemi.

166
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:32.879
<v Speaker 2>It was just it was so good. He and Oba

167
00:11:32.879 --> 00:11:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Femi just beat the kick crap out of him for

168
00:11:34.840 --> 00:11:40.320
<v Speaker 2>like twenty seconds. Okay, so Oba Femi now has one point,

169
00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:45.000
<v Speaker 2>and two guys have two points, and uh, two guys

170
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:46.679
<v Speaker 2>have one, so three guys have two one point. Two

171
00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:48.840
<v Speaker 2>guys have two points. At the end of the match,

172
00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:53.720
<v Speaker 2>everybody's back in the ring and eventually the the way

173
00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:57.320
<v Speaker 2>the match ended was Obafemi who had one point. There's

174
00:11:57.360 --> 00:12:00.559
<v Speaker 2>a double choke slam pins two guys at the same time,

175
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:02.840
<v Speaker 2>so there's two points and now has three and then

176
00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:05.759
<v Speaker 2>the time ran out. So Oba Femi now won the

177
00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Iron Survivor Challenge. And I have to tell you, Oba

178
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:11.720
<v Speaker 2>Femi versus Trick Williams is going to be freaking amazing.

179
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:13.840
<v Speaker 2>It's going to be freaking amazing. It was a really

180
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:18.360
<v Speaker 2>good Iron Survivor Challenge. No Shenanigans, it wasn't it wasn't there,

181
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:23.639
<v Speaker 2>there wasn't weapons involved. It was just good quality wrestling.

182
00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:26.799
<v Speaker 2>And I always I always say My father's kind of

183
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:32.559
<v Speaker 2>like the barameter barometer, barometer for events, because he like,

184
00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:35.000
<v Speaker 2>he doesn't like the over the top like war games

185
00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:37.360
<v Speaker 2>with all the with all the he likes war games,

186
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:39.480
<v Speaker 2>but with all the weapons and things like the tables

187
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:41.399
<v Speaker 2>and everything, he just drives them nuts. But this was

188
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:45.519
<v Speaker 2>pure wrestling, like just pins and it was it was

189
00:12:45.559 --> 00:12:47.879
<v Speaker 2>it was really good, like the Men Survivor Challenge was

190
00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:49.720
<v Speaker 2>high quality. It was a good way to start to show.

191
00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:00.200
<v Speaker 2>Then we had Lexus King outside walking the street. It's

192
00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:05.600
<v Speaker 2>a freezing cold Minneapolis. He said that the city has

193
00:13:05.639 --> 00:13:07.879
<v Speaker 2>a place in his heart because it's the city that

194
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:10.039
<v Speaker 2>he was left out the side of the road in

195
00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:12.519
<v Speaker 2>the freezing cold and no role model to speak of.

196
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:15.240
<v Speaker 2>King said he was trying to prove he's not the

197
00:13:15.279 --> 00:13:18.320
<v Speaker 2>same and he's different and he'll exceed beyond everything he did.

198
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:22.679
<v Speaker 2>Referring to his late father Brian Pilman, King said, he

199
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:25.799
<v Speaker 2>still struggles, but it's a fight worth fighting for and

200
00:13:25.879 --> 00:13:28.000
<v Speaker 2>it's worth it to be out there and feeling the

201
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:31.639
<v Speaker 2>cold on his skin. King says, nothing feels better than

202
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:34.480
<v Speaker 2>the warm air of satisfaction. And that was it. So

203
00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:39.279
<v Speaker 2>here's the thing, here's my issue with this whole thing. Um,

204
00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:43.559
<v Speaker 2>for those of you that don't know, Lexus King is

205
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:48.720
<v Speaker 2>Brian Pilman junior, right, And when he was in AEW

206
00:13:49.080 --> 00:13:52.399
<v Speaker 2>he was Brian Pilman Junior. Daba was his ring name.

207
00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:57.559
<v Speaker 2>He came over to NXT, they changed his name to

208
00:13:57.679 --> 00:14:03.200
<v Speaker 2>distance him from his father. Okay, but understandable, Like he

209
00:14:03.240 --> 00:14:04.919
<v Speaker 2>wants to be out of the shadow of Brian Pillman,

210
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:11.080
<v Speaker 2>like I understand, And then they proceed to create a

211
00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:14.120
<v Speaker 2>storyline all about him getting out of the shadow of

212
00:14:14.120 --> 00:14:17.240
<v Speaker 2>his father, like or just don't talk about it, like

213
00:14:17.279 --> 00:14:19.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I don't understand this whole concept, Like it

214
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:22.639
<v Speaker 2>doesn't make any sense to me. So anyway, that's just

215
00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:24.919
<v Speaker 2>that's just the thought that I had. I don't really

216
00:14:25.039 --> 00:14:27.679
<v Speaker 2>understand why they're proceeding to this. I mean, I guess

217
00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:30.200
<v Speaker 2>because they're trying to make him more of a babyface

218
00:14:30.240 --> 00:14:32.519
<v Speaker 2>and less of a heel. But he's a great heel.

219
00:14:32.639 --> 00:14:36.320
<v Speaker 2>Number one, number two, like, let's like to totally completed,

220
00:14:36.639 --> 00:14:38.840
<v Speaker 2>completely reverse the concept of what they were trying to

221
00:14:38.840 --> 00:14:41.840
<v Speaker 2>do in the first place. After that, you have no

222
00:14:41.960 --> 00:14:46.120
<v Speaker 2>quarter catch crew getting ready. Zaria was was shown getting

223
00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:49.519
<v Speaker 2>ready also by lifting a guard rail one of the

224
00:14:49.559 --> 00:14:52.679
<v Speaker 2>metal guardrails as a warm up routine. And then there

225
00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:55.080
<v Speaker 2>was a video package that aired about Jada Parker and

226
00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:57.399
<v Speaker 2>Lolavice or the rivalry that was going on for a

227
00:14:57.399 --> 00:15:00.240
<v Speaker 2>couple months. So then we have the Underground match next

228
00:15:00.360 --> 00:15:04.240
<v Speaker 2>Underground between Jada Parker and Lol Device. I'm not gonna

229
00:15:04.240 --> 00:15:06.799
<v Speaker 2>get into the particulars of this match. The only thing

230
00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:13.840
<v Speaker 2>I'll say is I don't understand. I don't understand the

231
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:16.039
<v Speaker 2>Underground match. I mean I do, I get it, but

232
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:20.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't. And you have people around the ring, which

233
00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:22.720
<v Speaker 2>is weird because I mean, I understand why they have, well,

234
00:15:22.919 --> 00:15:25.000
<v Speaker 2>you have three sides except the front side of the

235
00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:26.879
<v Speaker 2>ring because you want people to be able to see

236
00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:33.320
<v Speaker 2>what's going on. But it's so annoying the banging of

237
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:36.120
<v Speaker 2>the ring. And if you watched it, you know exactly

238
00:15:36.159 --> 00:15:37.919
<v Speaker 2>what I'm talking about. You got people around the ring

239
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:41.159
<v Speaker 2>because it's the underground they're trying to emulate some like

240
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:45.240
<v Speaker 2>warehouse match, but the whole time the people around the

241
00:15:45.320 --> 00:15:47.639
<v Speaker 2>ring are just banging over and over again the ring.

242
00:15:47.720 --> 00:15:51.759
<v Speaker 2>It's it's so annoying, like and and it wasn't even

243
00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:54.759
<v Speaker 2>like they were doing straight up MMA, like there was soupplexes,

244
00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:58.480
<v Speaker 2>there was body slams, like it was a wrestling match

245
00:15:58.519 --> 00:16:00.320
<v Speaker 2>that like kind of focused a little bit or an

246
00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:03.360
<v Speaker 2>MMA style, but generally it was a wrestling match without ropes.

247
00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:08.919
<v Speaker 2>At the end of the day, as I predicted, which

248
00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:13.639
<v Speaker 2>I'm not surprised, Lola Ice won the match and she

249
00:16:13.720 --> 00:16:16.440
<v Speaker 2>made her I think she made her fall aslike with

250
00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:19.919
<v Speaker 2>a what the heck was it? Oh my god, I

251
00:16:19.919 --> 00:16:23.080
<v Speaker 2>forgot what it was. It was a oh and a

252
00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:26.399
<v Speaker 2>Conda mandic kind device, that's what it was, hand coind device.

253
00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:30.360
<v Speaker 2>It was. I mean, overall, it was a good match,

254
00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:37.639
<v Speaker 2>but it was just the concept of the match, regardless

255
00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:40.399
<v Speaker 2>of the participants, but just it's just annoying, just annoying.

256
00:16:41.639 --> 00:16:44.360
<v Speaker 2>After that match, and after the match, you also have

257
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:50.679
<v Speaker 2>a picture of a deject, dejected Jada Parker outside the

258
00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:52.440
<v Speaker 2>ring and then Lola of Ice with her hand raised

259
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:55.200
<v Speaker 2>inside the ring. So that was really interesting. Which and

260
00:16:55.240 --> 00:16:57.120
<v Speaker 2>again I think I've said this before, I love both

261
00:16:57.159 --> 00:16:59.440
<v Speaker 2>of them. They're both gonna do great things. I hope

262
00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:01.679
<v Speaker 2>eventually both of them will make it to the to

263
00:17:01.720 --> 00:17:03.679
<v Speaker 2>the main roster. They'll they'll bring it. They'll both bring

264
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:08.160
<v Speaker 2>a lot to the main roster. Women's divisions, especially especially raw.

265
00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:16.319
<v Speaker 2>Then there was another video about the end of Chase

266
00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:20.200
<v Speaker 2>University and Stephanie vcor then get shown getting ready for

267
00:17:20.240 --> 00:17:25.039
<v Speaker 2>the main event, and then the NXT Championship champions Axiom

268
00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:27.799
<v Speaker 2>and Nathan Fraser were backstage talking about how they'll be fine,

269
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:31.640
<v Speaker 2>even though so Nathan Fraser, he was bloody. He got

270
00:17:31.640 --> 00:17:34.160
<v Speaker 2>banged up a lot during this match during the Iron

271
00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:36.359
<v Speaker 2>Survivor Challenge and now he has to go out and

272
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:39.680
<v Speaker 2>they didn't even separate the match a lot like like

273
00:17:39.759 --> 00:17:42.759
<v Speaker 2>it was like it was like men's Iron Survivor Challenge

274
00:17:42.759 --> 00:17:44.240
<v Speaker 2>and then the Underground and then he had to go

275
00:17:44.279 --> 00:17:48.839
<v Speaker 2>back out again. So then we had so then the

276
00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:52.160
<v Speaker 2>next thing we have is the tag team Champions Nathan

277
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:54.400
<v Speaker 2>Fraser and Axiom against the No Quarter Catch Grew of

278
00:17:54.400 --> 00:17:58.319
<v Speaker 2>Miles Bourne and tv On Hikes. And this was a

279
00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:00.880
<v Speaker 2>This was a decent match. This was a really good match.

280
00:18:01.480 --> 00:18:05.440
<v Speaker 2>The end the ending drove me nuts though, so so

281
00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:11.839
<v Speaker 2>Tavion and Miles. You'll get to their finishing move and

282
00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:15.720
<v Speaker 2>super Axiom and I'm using that with quotes. Super Axiom

283
00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:19.240
<v Speaker 2>kicks out of the finisher, which I know Matt has

284
00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:24.119
<v Speaker 2>said this during his podcast during his episodes about how

285
00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:26.440
<v Speaker 2>like when you when you and everybody kicks out of

286
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:30.480
<v Speaker 2>a finisher, it's just it just diminishes the finisher and

287
00:18:32.160 --> 00:18:34.880
<v Speaker 2>like I don't And and then the worst part about

288
00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:38.799
<v Speaker 2>it is so number one, you know, I I want

289
00:18:38.880 --> 00:18:41.880
<v Speaker 2>I want Phraxium to fracture, like I don't. I want

290
00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:44.839
<v Speaker 2>That's that was that was really cool. I want Phraxium

291
00:18:44.839 --> 00:18:46.839
<v Speaker 2>to fracture. I want them, I want them to stop

292
00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:48.880
<v Speaker 2>being champions. They need to put into on the real

293
00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:52.480
<v Speaker 2>tag team. And Miles Born and Tavian Heights are a

294
00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:55.119
<v Speaker 2>tag team like they're from a g they're from a group,

295
00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:58.839
<v Speaker 2>they're from a faction, the No Quarter Catch Crew, and

296
00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:01.279
<v Speaker 2>they would be good to item champions. And then we've

297
00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:04.240
<v Speaker 2>got other people that were establishing now with the whole

298
00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:08.200
<v Speaker 2>Battle Royal last week. But then Axiom kicks out of

299
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:11.720
<v Speaker 2>the finisher for Miles Bourn and Tavan Heights, and then

300
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:14.119
<v Speaker 2>the worst part about it is not more than a

301
00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:21.039
<v Speaker 2>minute later, Axiom rolls up what is it uh? He

302
00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:26.759
<v Speaker 2>rolls up Born with an inside cradle, Milesbourne with an

303
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:29.920
<v Speaker 2>inside cradle and gets the win at fifteen minutes and

304
00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:33.039
<v Speaker 2>thirty seconds. It was a great match and the way

305
00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:38.519
<v Speaker 2>the match ended, it just was I actually verbally oullowed

306
00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:41.079
<v Speaker 2>to say, are you kidding me? I actually out loud

307
00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:43.000
<v Speaker 2>said that while I was watching this with my father,

308
00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:46.319
<v Speaker 2>and he started laughing because he knows too, like I

309
00:19:46.480 --> 00:19:49.720
<v Speaker 2>just those two were singles wrestlers that happened to be good,

310
00:19:49.839 --> 00:19:55.279
<v Speaker 2>good as a tag team, but they need to like focus,

311
00:19:55.759 --> 00:19:59.079
<v Speaker 2>they need to focus. All right, it was a good

312
00:19:59.079 --> 00:20:06.440
<v Speaker 2>match though overall was good, really good. Then we had

313
00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:11.839
<v Speaker 2>uh John Evans interviewed by Sarah Schreiber saying that he

314
00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:14.720
<v Speaker 2>needed he needed two more seconds to win the Iron

315
00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:18.960
<v Speaker 2>Survivor Challenge, and Wesley interrupted by saying by saying Evans

316
00:20:19.240 --> 00:20:21.640
<v Speaker 2>as acting like a fool after his loss to Oma Femy.

317
00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:26.680
<v Speaker 2>Evans said that Lee was salty, and Lee said that

318
00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:28.839
<v Speaker 2>one day he'll be just like him. Evan said you

319
00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:32.000
<v Speaker 2>think so and punched, and so Lee punched Evans and

320
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:36.200
<v Speaker 2>security showed up to break it up. So they're gonna

321
00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:40.039
<v Speaker 2>there's gonna be eventually a Evans Javan Evans Wesley match,

322
00:20:40.079 --> 00:20:43.680
<v Speaker 2>which will be will be fabulous. I'm not like so.

323
00:20:43.720 --> 00:20:46.319
<v Speaker 2>The next the next special event for NXT is New

324
00:20:46.400 --> 00:20:49.039
<v Speaker 2>Year's Evil, and that's where the champions will go against

325
00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:54.759
<v Speaker 2>the Iron Survivor Winners, which I guess is from It's

326
00:20:54.799 --> 00:20:58.480
<v Speaker 2>from a special Look Los Angeles from Los Angeles, and

327
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:02.559
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be it's gonna be good good. I think

328
00:21:02.559 --> 00:21:06.480
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be a really good event. So next we

329
00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:09.480
<v Speaker 2>have so now the fourth, second last match, we have

330
00:21:09.680 --> 00:21:14.559
<v Speaker 2>the NXT Championship. The NXT Championship was not the main

331
00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:21.599
<v Speaker 2>event of this PLA. That is huge, and I hope

332
00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:23.839
<v Speaker 2>to find out more information about that for you between

333
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:27.200
<v Speaker 2>now and probably not Tuesday, you know, from probably not

334
00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:29.640
<v Speaker 2>Wednesday's podcast, but I'll probably be like the week after

335
00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:33.000
<v Speaker 2>because they're really focusing a lot on the women. Again,

336
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:41.279
<v Speaker 2>I know I keep saying it, but it's true. So

337
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:43.640
<v Speaker 2>so we've got them their match. So their match was

338
00:21:43.680 --> 00:21:46.359
<v Speaker 2>really good. I mean, Trick Williams is palling all all

339
00:21:46.400 --> 00:21:48.720
<v Speaker 2>the old Booker T moves and actually I think Booker

340
00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:52.079
<v Speaker 2>T one time said he actually did a bookend. Of course,

341
00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:54.559
<v Speaker 2>the side leg kicker that he does, that's a lah

342
00:21:54.599 --> 00:21:56.319
<v Speaker 2>Booker T as well. I mean it's just it's all

343
00:21:56.319 --> 00:21:59.279
<v Speaker 2>book Booker T's old stuff. But he does it well.

344
00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:01.839
<v Speaker 2>He does it like Booker T did back in w

345
00:22:01.960 --> 00:22:05.319
<v Speaker 2>c W and he's you know, he's he's over with

346
00:22:05.400 --> 00:22:07.599
<v Speaker 2>the crowd. The crowd loves him. You know. I hope,

347
00:22:08.519 --> 00:22:11.000
<v Speaker 2>I hope that there's a possibility that he's in the

348
00:22:11.079 --> 00:22:13.680
<v Speaker 2>Royald Rumble, like like last year Roxanne Perez was in

349
00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:17.079
<v Speaker 2>the Royal Rumble and Tiffany Stratton. I mean, I'm not

350
00:22:17.119 --> 00:22:19.039
<v Speaker 2>saying that he should stay in the man main roster

351
00:22:19.119 --> 00:22:22.400
<v Speaker 2>right now, but I think that I think I'd love

352
00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:25.079
<v Speaker 2>to hear the pop. I'd love to hear all of Uh.

353
00:22:25.519 --> 00:22:26.960
<v Speaker 2>I was about to say the who's your dome? Oh

354
00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:31.279
<v Speaker 2>my god, all of Lucas Oil Stadium starts saying, whoop

355
00:22:31.319 --> 00:22:35.799
<v Speaker 2>that trick? That'll be great. So anyway, this was a

356
00:22:35.960 --> 00:22:39.640
<v Speaker 2>this was a really good match and went back and forth.

357
00:22:39.640 --> 00:22:41.400
<v Speaker 2>It was. It was pretty long too. It was fifteen

358
00:22:41.400 --> 00:22:43.200
<v Speaker 2>minutes or fifty one seconds. So it was a fairly

359
00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:47.119
<v Speaker 2>decent match. Uh And at the end, uh trick Williams

360
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:51.960
<v Speaker 2>hit the spinning kick and then the trick shot knee knee,

361
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:53.839
<v Speaker 2>you know, the trick shot the knee I needa he

362
00:22:53.880 --> 00:22:57.599
<v Speaker 2>does to get the pinfall wins trick. Williams is still

363
00:22:57.680 --> 00:23:02.119
<v Speaker 2>your n XT champion, as I appreciate it. So I'm

364
00:23:02.119 --> 00:23:05.160
<v Speaker 2>doing pretty good. So far even though, like again, if

365
00:23:05.160 --> 00:23:08.200
<v Speaker 2>Obafemi was announced ahead of time, I would have picked him,

366
00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:11.559
<v Speaker 2>like I absolutely would have picked Obafemi. But I did.

367
00:23:12.119 --> 00:23:14.359
<v Speaker 2>I did get Lola right, I did get well, you

368
00:23:14.400 --> 00:23:16.200
<v Speaker 2>know what, I actually, I actually get the Tag Team

369
00:23:16.279 --> 00:23:19.799
<v Speaker 2>Champions wrong? I won? Who admitted when I get it wrong? Yeah?

370
00:23:19.839 --> 00:23:23.880
<v Speaker 2>I got the Tag Team Champions wrong. I guess. I

371
00:23:24.039 --> 00:23:26.960
<v Speaker 2>guess it was more more of a hope than a prediction,

372
00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:30.640
<v Speaker 2>I guess, but I did. I did think Trick wa.

373
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:32.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they're going They're not taking the time

374
00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:34.839
<v Speaker 2>off of Trick Williams anytime soon. He right now is

375
00:23:34.839 --> 00:23:37.759
<v Speaker 2>is the face of the of the CW n XT

376
00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:44.039
<v Speaker 2>for now. Eventually that will change, but I think for now, overall,

377
00:23:44.039 --> 00:23:46.559
<v Speaker 2>it was a solid match, something special, but it was.

378
00:23:46.680 --> 00:23:50.039
<v Speaker 2>It was a it was a decent match, I think.

379
00:23:50.079 --> 00:23:52.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I think Rich Holland's is just Rich Holland

380
00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:58.119
<v Speaker 2>is just clunky, you know, I don't know, that's just me.

381
00:23:58.920 --> 00:24:02.119
<v Speaker 2>So then we've got Ethan Page in the back saying

382
00:24:02.200 --> 00:24:04.759
<v Speaker 2>it took him four matches to become NXT champion, and

383
00:24:04.839 --> 00:24:08.160
<v Speaker 2>they turn nxten NX me and you like he does

384
00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:12.079
<v Speaker 2>the pointing to his face Paige recapped what happened and

385
00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:14.599
<v Speaker 2>was frustrated, saying that he dropped the ball again, and

386
00:24:14.680 --> 00:24:16.640
<v Speaker 2>Page said it took him eighteen years to get here

387
00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:21.279
<v Speaker 2>to win the championship. Excuse me, and Paige said it

388
00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:23.839
<v Speaker 2>also took him eighteen years to figure out that that

389
00:24:23.920 --> 00:24:25.920
<v Speaker 2>he has no clue how to get back there, and

390
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:30.920
<v Speaker 2>he walked away frustrated again. Please don't turn him, babyface.

391
00:24:31.039 --> 00:24:34.160
<v Speaker 2>He is, to me, the quintessential heel of n XT,

392
00:24:35.759 --> 00:24:42.400
<v Speaker 2>quintessential heel of the next They announced some matches for Tuesday.

393
00:24:42.480 --> 00:24:45.880
<v Speaker 2>They announced gig Doan Tatum Pasi versus j C Jane

394
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:49.839
<v Speaker 2>and Jasmine nix Oh, but Femi will address the NXT

395
00:24:50.039 --> 00:24:54.279
<v Speaker 2>universe as the Iron Survivor Champion. And then they also

396
00:24:54.839 --> 00:24:57.599
<v Speaker 2>announced that Wesley and Javon Evans will go one on one.

397
00:24:59.200 --> 00:25:02.160
<v Speaker 2>So there's a video page for the Women's Iron Survivor Challenge.

398
00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:07.400
<v Speaker 2>This then we had the actual Women's Irons Favor Challenge.

399
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:13.000
<v Speaker 2>This started out with This started out with Julia and

400
00:25:13.039 --> 00:25:18.519
<v Speaker 2>Ren Sinclair. Now Ren Sinclair, I said the other day

401
00:25:18.559 --> 00:25:22.160
<v Speaker 2>when I made my prediction, I picked Stephanie Vacora, And

402
00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:26.319
<v Speaker 2>I said the other day that Ren Sinclair, you could

403
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:30.880
<v Speaker 2>throw her out. As far as predictions goes, there's no

404
00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:35.079
<v Speaker 2>way she's winning this. And I was right. Ren Sinclair

405
00:25:35.319 --> 00:25:40.400
<v Speaker 2>was the getting pinned machine. She out of She was

406
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:42.680
<v Speaker 2>pinned at least three or four times. I think maybe

407
00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:48.400
<v Speaker 2>four times. I think once by each person. Actually I

408
00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:53.440
<v Speaker 2>started out with Julia ren Sinclair. Eventually after five minutes,

409
00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:57.720
<v Speaker 2>so Ruca comes out as number three. And so Ruka

410
00:25:58.519 --> 00:26:03.559
<v Speaker 2>was on fire, hitting board attacks and power slams and

411
00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:06.039
<v Speaker 2>she was she was just on fire. When she got in.

412
00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:11.680
<v Speaker 2>Ren Sinclair did a lot of running around and trying

413
00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:14.359
<v Speaker 2>to avoid things and then jumping in. You know something

414
00:26:14.359 --> 00:26:16.880
<v Speaker 2>that Ren Sinclair should do. That's that's that's her stick,

415
00:26:16.880 --> 00:26:24.079
<v Speaker 2>and that's okay. So eventually Ren rolled up Julia for

416
00:26:24.119 --> 00:26:26.680
<v Speaker 2>a two count. Julie hit a Northern Lights power bomb

417
00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:29.920
<v Speaker 2>on ren for the pinfall. So Julia has one point

418
00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:35.799
<v Speaker 2>and Ren Sinclair is now in the pamphty box. Zaria

419
00:26:35.960 --> 00:26:38.200
<v Speaker 2>was the next person to come down, and she doubles

420
00:26:38.200 --> 00:26:42.160
<v Speaker 2>suplex Julie and sol Ruka. Julia head but in Zaria

421
00:26:42.519 --> 00:26:47.440
<v Speaker 2>and then did a she Silberka did a double soul

422
00:26:47.559 --> 00:26:50.519
<v Speaker 2>snatcher on Julia and Zaria and both women rolled out

423
00:26:50.519 --> 00:26:53.480
<v Speaker 2>of the ring. And then when Ren when came back

424
00:26:53.480 --> 00:26:55.799
<v Speaker 2>into the ring, So hit her with a soul snatcher

425
00:26:55.920 --> 00:26:59.880
<v Speaker 2>for the pin. So basically Rent Sinclair came in after

426
00:27:00.000 --> 00:27:02.200
<v Speaker 2>a couple of seconds, she got hit with the snaw

427
00:27:02.279 --> 00:27:04.400
<v Speaker 2>snatcher and she had to go right back into the

428
00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:07.640
<v Speaker 2>penalty box. So now Julia and soul Ruka both have

429
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:12.960
<v Speaker 2>a point. It was poor Renson clear. I kept I

430
00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:18.519
<v Speaker 2>kept looking at my father, just going poor Rensing clear. Again.

431
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:21.200
<v Speaker 2>One of these things is not like the other, like

432
00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:24.640
<v Speaker 2>it's it's really like she's just she was out of

433
00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:28.319
<v Speaker 2>her element, like she was great. She's like a She's

434
00:27:28.359 --> 00:27:31.400
<v Speaker 2>like a Chelsea green Light. I call that like a

435
00:27:31.440 --> 00:27:34.319
<v Speaker 2>Chelsea green light as far as the way she you know,

436
00:27:34.440 --> 00:27:36.880
<v Speaker 2>the way her character is. But there was no way

437
00:27:36.920 --> 00:27:40.839
<v Speaker 2>she was winning this thing anyway. The last person to

438
00:27:40.839 --> 00:27:45.279
<v Speaker 2>come out is Stephanie Vecaier, and she did. She went

439
00:27:45.279 --> 00:27:48.960
<v Speaker 2>on an attack right away. Eventually we get to Zaria

440
00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:53.440
<v Speaker 2>hitting a spinning slam off the shoulders of Julia for

441
00:27:53.680 --> 00:27:56.519
<v Speaker 2>her first fall. So Julia now has so Zaria has

442
00:27:56.559 --> 00:28:06.880
<v Speaker 2>one point. Action's fast paced with soul so Ruka, Vikur

443
00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:13.240
<v Speaker 2>and Wrend exchanging moves. Uh so Hi Ruka hit double

444
00:28:13.319 --> 00:28:16.640
<v Speaker 2>knees on Vicaire. Zoria was on the top rope and

445
00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:19.960
<v Speaker 2>hit a moon sawt onto, both opponents standing up, and

446
00:28:20.000 --> 00:28:23.319
<v Speaker 2>then Julia was out. The got Julia got out of

447
00:28:23.319 --> 00:28:26.759
<v Speaker 2>the penalty box because she was in there because Zaria

448
00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:30.359
<v Speaker 2>pinned her hit a running cake on Zaria. It just

449
00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:33.599
<v Speaker 2>kept going back and forth, strikes, back and forth. So

450
00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:36.799
<v Speaker 2>eventually so rucas Uh splashed on a Julia and then

451
00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:41.880
<v Speaker 2>hit a German suplex. Wren went after Vicaire, who then

452
00:28:41.920 --> 00:28:45.240
<v Speaker 2>encountered a move leading to a pen pinfall. So now

453
00:28:45.519 --> 00:28:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Ren Sinclair is pinned again by Stephanie, and now Stephanie

454
00:28:50.920 --> 00:28:53.880
<v Speaker 2>has a point and Ren is back in the penalty box.

455
00:28:55.160 --> 00:28:57.519
<v Speaker 2>So now all four women have one point and Ren

456
00:28:57.599 --> 00:29:04.799
<v Speaker 2>Sinclair has zero. So gott to row up on the

457
00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:07.720
<v Speaker 2>care Vicaire went for a kick by the rope. Sol

458
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:10.839
<v Speaker 2>broke free and hit a springboard somersault clothesline for a

459
00:29:10.880 --> 00:29:13.799
<v Speaker 2>two count. There was only one minute left when Ren

460
00:29:13.839 --> 00:29:15.759
<v Speaker 2>got a son so a flip on so for a

461
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:20.400
<v Speaker 2>pinfall with forty seconds left. So now Wren has a point.

462
00:29:20.880 --> 00:29:25.359
<v Speaker 2>So now all five have one point. About thirty seconds left,

463
00:29:25.400 --> 00:29:29.839
<v Speaker 2>everybody has one point and Wren did a cradle on

464
00:29:29.960 --> 00:29:32.480
<v Speaker 2>Vicor for a two count. The car was back in

465
00:29:32.519 --> 00:29:34.960
<v Speaker 2>the ring with a double spear on Wren In Seclaire

466
00:29:35.640 --> 00:29:38.599
<v Speaker 2>and Zari hit a spinning slam off the shoulders like

467
00:29:38.720 --> 00:29:42.519
<v Speaker 2>the F five that brock Lesner does. Julia was back

468
00:29:42.519 --> 00:29:45.720
<v Speaker 2>in the ring and Zaria with a running bear on.

469
00:29:45.799 --> 00:29:51.759
<v Speaker 2>Zaria called Arivederci and Julia got the pinfall win. So

470
00:29:51.839 --> 00:29:54.519
<v Speaker 2>now Julia has two points and Kier rows up Julia

471
00:29:54.599 --> 00:29:57.920
<v Speaker 2>for two but Cara tries another move, but time ran

472
00:29:58.000 --> 00:30:00.400
<v Speaker 2>out and then ended the match at twenty five minutes

473
00:30:00.400 --> 00:30:03.519
<v Speaker 2>with Julia getting the win. So Julia is your woman's

474
00:30:03.559 --> 00:30:09.720
<v Speaker 2>Iron Survivor winner. Who I mentioned I'm sick, I'm doing

475
00:30:09.759 --> 00:30:14.000
<v Speaker 2>pretty good considering. Yeah, this is a great match. The

476
00:30:14.480 --> 00:30:16.799
<v Speaker 2>women deserve to be last. It was definitely the match

477
00:30:16.799 --> 00:30:23.240
<v Speaker 2>of the night, back and forth, just just innovative wrestling. Uh,

478
00:30:23.519 --> 00:30:25.279
<v Speaker 2>Like you know, it was great to have Ren there

479
00:30:25.400 --> 00:30:30.279
<v Speaker 2>to become the foil Julia, Stephanie and like to me,

480
00:30:30.359 --> 00:30:32.920
<v Speaker 2>it was Julius, Stephanie and Zara, which was like the

481
00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:36.279
<v Speaker 2>A the A leaguers. You got Soroka who's like B

482
00:30:36.440 --> 00:30:38.279
<v Speaker 2>and then you've got Ren Sinclair which is like C.

483
00:30:39.240 --> 00:30:42.079
<v Speaker 2>And it worked out that way like sol Ruka showed

484
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:46.799
<v Speaker 2>her stuff. I almost I almost said it, so Ruco

485
00:30:46.920 --> 00:30:49.519
<v Speaker 2>really showed her stuff. She and again she will be

486
00:30:49.599 --> 00:30:51.200
<v Speaker 2>she gota woke up a bit. She will she will

487
00:30:51.240 --> 00:30:55.079
<v Speaker 2>be a star as well. Stephanie Julian Zaria are already stars.

488
00:30:57.359 --> 00:30:59.880
<v Speaker 2>And basically the question was which of those three women

489
00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:02.240
<v Speaker 2>it would would win the Irons Favor Challenge. And to me,

490
00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:04.599
<v Speaker 2>any three of them would have won, could have won,

491
00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:08.319
<v Speaker 2>and they did. It was Julia again, I showed Stephanie

492
00:31:08.519 --> 00:31:12.359
<v Speaker 2>I was wrong. So what one of the one of

493
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:15.240
<v Speaker 2>the right people won the match. And then there's Ren

494
00:31:15.279 --> 00:31:19.160
<v Speaker 2>Saint Clair who was great in the role that she did.

495
00:31:19.640 --> 00:31:22.839
<v Speaker 2>And to be honest, I Rent Saint Clair came out

496
00:31:22.839 --> 00:31:30.440
<v Speaker 2>of this match with my admiration. I like her more

497
00:31:30.519 --> 00:31:34.160
<v Speaker 2>now than I did prior to the match for what

498
00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:36.319
<v Speaker 2>it's worth, and I'll and I'll pay more and I'm

499
00:31:36.319 --> 00:31:38.240
<v Speaker 2>actually gonna pay more attention to Ren Saint Clair as

500
00:31:38.279 --> 00:31:40.440
<v Speaker 2>a result of this. So you know what, it did

501
00:31:40.440 --> 00:31:46.319
<v Speaker 2>its job. Yeah, So that was it. Overall. Like I said,

502
00:31:46.319 --> 00:31:50.200
<v Speaker 2>I give give the show an absolute thumbs up. I

503
00:31:50.240 --> 00:31:52.920
<v Speaker 2>think of all the matches, I would say the match

504
00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:56.240
<v Speaker 2>that bugged me the most was the underground match, only

505
00:31:56.279 --> 00:31:59.359
<v Speaker 2>because again the slamming of the ring the entire time,

506
00:31:59.400 --> 00:32:03.400
<v Speaker 2>like it was hard to pay attention. It drove me

507
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:07.079
<v Speaker 2>nuts when Nathan Frazier and Axiom won again, especially on

508
00:32:07.160 --> 00:32:10.920
<v Speaker 2>an inside creatle small package. I mean, come on, please,

509
00:32:11.000 --> 00:32:13.799
<v Speaker 2>let's move on. Please, Like they've had the titles now

510
00:32:13.839 --> 00:32:17.279
<v Speaker 2>three times in the last year, and they made this

511
00:32:17.319 --> 00:32:20.759
<v Speaker 2>whole big deal about the all the tag teams beating

512
00:32:20.799 --> 00:32:22.480
<v Speaker 2>the crap out of each other and having the Battle

513
00:32:22.559 --> 00:32:26.160
<v Speaker 2>Royal just for them to lose. I don't get it.

514
00:32:27.000 --> 00:32:31.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry. Matches absolute thumbs up. Both of them were great,

515
00:32:31.960 --> 00:32:38.480
<v Speaker 2>and the the NXT title match was really good. And

516
00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:42.039
<v Speaker 2>it looks like now Trick Williams will go against Obafemi,

517
00:32:42.079 --> 00:32:44.119
<v Speaker 2>which I think a lot of us really wanted to see,

518
00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:50.400
<v Speaker 2>and to be honest, I honestly think that Obafemi will

519
00:32:50.440 --> 00:32:54.559
<v Speaker 2>be the next NXT champion. That's that's my prediction early.

520
00:32:55.519 --> 00:32:57.720
<v Speaker 2>I may think differently in a few weeks when New

521
00:32:57.759 --> 00:33:00.599
<v Speaker 2>Year's Evil comes around, but for now, I will be

522
00:33:00.680 --> 00:33:04.839
<v Speaker 2>shocked if I wouldn't be shocked if oh if Emi

523
00:33:05.359 --> 00:33:08.200
<v Speaker 2>won the NXT title on New Year's Evil, which we'll

524
00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:11.359
<v Speaker 2>talk about when that comes out, and in the meantime,
