Speaker 1: This is your AAW Dynamite Review post All Out edition.
Speaker 1: It is Wednesday, September eleven, twenty and twenty four. I
Speaker 1: am the Solemn Monster. You know, Brian Danielson has made
Speaker 1: quite a few enemies in the last few weeks. He
Speaker 1: was excommunicated from the Blackpool Combat Club. This past weekend
Speaker 1: he had a plastic bag placed around his head. He
Speaker 1: was suffocated nearly to death on Saturday. Now, we had
Speaker 1: a World Championship match coming up, a Grand Slam in
Speaker 1: a few weeks at Arthur Ashe Stadium that is no more.
Speaker 1: They shot an angle tonight to change the match. We
Speaker 1: actually have two matches out of it now. But Brian
Speaker 1: Danielson not only has enemies in John Moxley and the
Speaker 1: Blackpool Combat Club, but he has a long term enemy
Speaker 1: in one Nigel McGuinness. And for well over a year now,
Speaker 1: Nigel McGuinness here in AW has taken every opportunity that
Speaker 1: he has been given to bash this man and insult him,
Speaker 1: mock him. He's called him brittle Brian, he's called him
Speaker 1: the neck break Kid. Every opportunity he gets he trashes
Speaker 1: this man. And this was a match that I thought
Speaker 1: we might get at Wembley Stadium last year Brian got hurt.
Speaker 1: Then I thought maybe we would get it this year,
Speaker 1: and instead Tony Kahan decided to go a different direction
Speaker 1: and he put the AW World Heavyweight title on Brian
Speaker 1: Danielson instead, and we got Nigel McGinnis back in the
Speaker 1: ring for the first time since twenty eleven. We saw
Speaker 1: him in the Casino Gauntlet match and he looked great.
Speaker 1: He looked like he could have another short run if
Speaker 1: he wants to get back in the ring and have
Speaker 1: an actual run here an AW. But Brian's career is
Speaker 1: coming to an end as far as him being a
Speaker 1: full time performer, and it didn't look like we were
Speaker 1: going to get this match, a match that Nigel McGinnis
Speaker 1: has wanted for so long. It was the entire reason
Speaker 1: that he wanted to come back in the first place,
Speaker 1: was to get in the ring with Brian Daniels. Well
Speaker 1: tonight it was made official that on September twenty fifth
Speaker 1: at Grand Slam AW Dynamite, it will now be Brian
Speaker 1: Danglson the AW World Heavyweight Champion, not for the title
Speaker 1: for Brian Danielson. One on one with Nigel McGuinness. Tony
Speaker 1: Kahan made the announcement official. They put the graphic up
Speaker 1: for it that match will take place. This will be
Speaker 1: the first meeting between these two men since their last
Speaker 1: match together in Ring of Honor in September of two
Speaker 1: thousand and nine, and in fact, the date of the
Speaker 1: Grand Slam Show will be one day shy of the
Speaker 1: fifteen year anniversary of the match that they had at
Speaker 1: the Manhattan Center in roh which was meant to be
Speaker 1: their swan song. They were leaving, both men were leaving
Speaker 1: at the same time, and they were both going to WWE.
Speaker 1: That was the plan. Brian Danielson did go to WWE
Speaker 1: and had a struggle. He had to climb his way
Speaker 1: up that mountain. He had to deal with a lot
Speaker 1: of crap because he wasn't the prototypical WWE star, but
Speaker 1: he made himself a star. He got over, he became
Speaker 1: World Heavyweight Champion, he headlined WrestleMania, He did things that
Speaker 1: he was never supposed to do. In spite of everything.
Speaker 1: Nigel McGinnis was supposed to go to WWE as well.
Speaker 1: He was a little too honest for his own good
Speaker 1: and he confided in WWE during the process that all
Speaker 1: wrestlers go through to get their medicals taken care of. That.
Speaker 1: He had some pre existing injuries and namely, I think
Speaker 1: it was some earlier bicep tears that he did not
Speaker 1: have fixed. He couldn't afford to. WWE wouldn't give him
Speaker 1: a contract unless he went and got his injuries taken
Speaker 1: care of. He couldn't afford to do it. You know,
Speaker 1: these days, maybe WWE would pay for it, but back
Speaker 1: then they didn't and that was it. They were scinded
Speaker 1: the offer. He never signed a contract and stead he
Speaker 1: ended up in TNA. That's where he had the Desmond
Speaker 1: Wolf Front and then he had the issue where he
Speaker 1: contracted hepatitis, took himself out of the ring. Eventually he
Speaker 1: recovered from that, but that was it. That was the
Speaker 1: end of his in ring career. So two very different
Speaker 1: paths in this business. And Nigel touched on that in
Speaker 1: the ring during his promo tonight, that that was supposed
Speaker 1: to be him, He and Brian both they were supposed
Speaker 1: to go to the big time. They were both supposed
Speaker 1: to become big stars. Brian did, Nigel did not. He
Speaker 1: has resented him for it ever since. That is the
Speaker 1: whole essence of this on screen feud, this rivalry, this hatred,
Speaker 1: this resentment that McGinnis has for him. That's the story there.
Speaker 1: So now we're going to get them back in the
Speaker 1: ring for the first time in a very long time. Well,
Speaker 1: what that means is that there will be no AW
Speaker 1: World Championship match on that show. Instead, we had Darby
Speaker 1: Allen and John Moxley face to face tonight and John
Speaker 1: mox said, look, the champion, after what happened this past weekend,
Speaker 1: is indisposed there will be no AW World Championship match
Speaker 1: on that show, even though you won the right to
Speaker 1: challenge for the title. But I want that shot instead,
Speaker 1: so why don't you give it to me? And what
Speaker 1: ended up happening is they made a match official for
Speaker 1: Grand Slam where it will now be John Moxley one
Speaker 1: on one with Darby Allen for Darby's shot at the
Speaker 1: AW World Heavyweight Championship, which he's under no obligation to
Speaker 1: put on the line. It would be the equivalent of
Speaker 1: a money in the bankholder saying Okay, I'll put my
Speaker 1: briefcase on the line. But you know Darby, he's not
Speaker 1: all there, he doesn't care, so he agreed, so now
Speaker 1: we're getting two big matches on that show, that being
Speaker 1: the other one. But there's a logic gap here, and
Speaker 1: the logic, I mean, it's glaring. It's a glaring logic gap.
Speaker 1: And they tried to kind of sort of explain it away,
Speaker 1: but it's still fucking stupid. That don't get it twisted.
Speaker 1: I'm very happy. I'm very excited that we're gonna get
Speaker 1: Brian one on one with Nigel. I'm very much looking
Speaker 1: forward to that match. That's great. I was actually hoping
Speaker 1: maybe they would do it all out instead of Jack Perry,
Speaker 1: we'd get Brian Danielson at Nigel McGinnis. So instead they're
Speaker 1: gonna do it at Grand Slam. That's great. But you
Speaker 1: had a segment earlier in the show where John Moxley said, look,
Speaker 1: the champion is at a commission right now, he's indisposed.
Speaker 1: There will be no championship match. How about you put
Speaker 1: your shot on the line against me. That's how we
Speaker 1: got mox and Darby. But yet later on in the
Speaker 1: same show, Tony Kahan gives the okay for Nigel mcguinnis
Speaker 1: to get in the ring with the champion, who is
Speaker 1: currently indisposed. After nearly being murdered at all out on
Speaker 1: Saturday night. So how do we go from Tony Kahn
Speaker 1: approving of this match change. Okay, I guess we're not
Speaker 1: gonna have a world championship match on my show, but
Speaker 1: I'm cool if mox and Darby want to throw down
Speaker 1: for the title shot, that's cool. And an hour later
Speaker 1: he's okaying a match between his champion and Nigel McGinnis.
Speaker 1: It just it's stupid. The way they went about doing
Speaker 1: it just seemed very haphazard. Now they did have ex
Speaker 1: caliber on commentary, try to explain this by explaining that, well,
Speaker 1: if Brian is clear, if Brian Danielson is clear, then
Speaker 1: the match will happen. I mean, the graphic was up
Speaker 1: on the screen. They're not announcing the match clearly unless
Speaker 1: the match is going to happen. We know this, We
Speaker 1: already know this. So it's a very It was very
Speaker 1: weird and it is very dumb no matter how hard
Speaker 1: they may try to explain it. The question is why
Speaker 1: did they make this change. Was this change planned from
Speaker 1: day one or was this a change that Tony Kahan
Speaker 1: came to in the last week or two. I think
Speaker 1: it's one of two things, or maybe a combination of both.
Speaker 1: I think it's a situation where they realize that Brian
Speaker 1: pers is going to drop the title of Wressel Dream.
Speaker 1: Wressell Dream is coming up in Tacoma, Washington on October twelfth.
Speaker 1: I'm sure Brian is going to defend the title on
Speaker 1: that show, probably against the winner of Moxley and Darby,
Speaker 1: if not both of them, maybe it ends up being
Speaker 1: a three way, but that is very likely that Brian
Speaker 1: Danielson is not going to make it out of that
Speaker 1: show as the aw World Heavyweight Champion, and the moment
Speaker 1: he won the title from Swerve at Wembley, I never
Speaker 1: felt as if we were getting a long title run.
Speaker 1: I didn't think Brian was going to win it and
Speaker 1: hold it for six months or for a year. This
Speaker 1: is a short term thing, and I could very easily
Speaker 1: see him dropping the belt into Coma next month and
Speaker 1: that's the end of his full time run. If that's
Speaker 1: the case, then it's a race against the clock, because
Speaker 1: even though Brian Danielson is not retiring full time, it's
Speaker 1: not like that will be his last match ever. Him
Speaker 1: saying that when he loses the title, that will be
Speaker 1: his last match as far as a full time performer.
Speaker 1: That tells me we're not going to see Brian Danielson
Speaker 1: back in the ring for a hot minute. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be a while and either we'll get the Nigel McGinnis
Speaker 1: match potentially much later on, or we'll never get it
Speaker 1: at all. So they may have looked at it and said, well,
Speaker 1: you know what, it's now or never. Tony Khan probably
Speaker 1: wanted to see the match. Nigel wants the match. I'm
Speaker 1: sure Brian wanted the match. If we're gonna do it,
Speaker 1: now's the time to do it. So if we have
Speaker 1: to reconfigure a few things to make this work, then
Speaker 1: let's make it work. Or or did Tony Kahan look
Speaker 1: at the poor ticket sales for Grand Slam, which is
Speaker 1: only a couple of weeks away. They're gonna be at
Speaker 1: Arthur Ashe Stadium to say the things that this fourth
Speaker 1: year in a row. I think did he look at
Speaker 1: that and say I need to do something to try
Speaker 1: to shake things up here and spice the show up
Speaker 1: to try to drum up ticket sales. The last update
Speaker 1: that I saw was less than a week week ago.
Speaker 1: It was late last week. Wrestle Ticks had an update,
Speaker 1: thirty seven hundred tickets as of the end of last week.
Speaker 1: Thirty seven hundred. Maybe by now it's up to four thousand,
Speaker 1: but thirty seven hundred tickets out for Grand Slam. When
Speaker 1: they ran their first Grand Slam show three years ago,
Speaker 1: they put twenty thousand people in that building. Second show
Speaker 1: they did, I think they had like thirteen thousand. Now
Speaker 1: they're down to thirty seven hundred and we are a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks away now. One thing that aw was
Speaker 1: very good at is getting people to buy tickets late.
Speaker 1: They get good walk up business, and I'm sure that
Speaker 1: number will be a bit higher than thirty seven hundred.
Speaker 1: They won't have thirty seven hundred on the day of,
Speaker 1: but to be at thirty seven hundred right now, I mean,
Speaker 1: there's no positive way to spin that. I mean, you
Speaker 1: talk about a steep drop. That's a steep drop. And
Speaker 1: they're only set up for about five thousand. So he's
Speaker 1: looking at this card and saying, what can I do
Speaker 1: to try to get people excited to buy tickets and
Speaker 1: come to the show. Max and Darby is a big match.
Speaker 1: It's not a title match, but it's a big match.
Speaker 1: Brian Danielson and Nigel McGinnis is an attraction, and I
Speaker 1: do think for their audience, they likely will be excited
Speaker 1: and want to see that match. And it's the New
Speaker 1: York market, which again, the last match they had was
Speaker 1: in New York, it was at the Manhattan Center. There's
Speaker 1: a lot of Ring of Honor fans, a lot of
Speaker 1: people that will be in the building that night were
Speaker 1: likely at the Manhattan Center the last time Danielson and
Speaker 1: McGinnis had a match. So I do think that will
Speaker 1: help them sell some tickets. So we'll see if it's
Speaker 1: smart and if it's an effective strategy. I think it's
Speaker 1: a combination of both. I think both of those things
Speaker 1: can be true. I think Danielson's run really could be
Speaker 1: coming to an end in October. And I also think
Speaker 1: Tony Kahn wants to sell fucking tickets because he's had
Speaker 1: a real rough go of it moving tickets for that show.
Speaker 1: And that's why I think we ended up in the
Speaker 1: spot that we now find ourselves in. But again, it's
Speaker 1: still silly, just from a storyline logic perspective to do
Speaker 1: what they did tonight, where you basically just upend this
Speaker 1: card in this championship match and then you end up
Speaker 1: booking the champion for the show. Even if it's a
Speaker 1: non title match, you book the champion for the show.
Speaker 1: Doesn't make a lot of sense. But you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm glad we're getting Brian Danielson and Nigel McGinnis, and
Speaker 1: I hope, I hope that the atmosphere could be something
Speaker 1: along the lines of what it was for Danielson and
Speaker 1: Kenny Omega. That match they had on that first Grand
Speaker 1: Slam was such a great match. They had that thirty
Speaker 1: minute match. But again, they had twenty thousand people in
Speaker 1: the building that night, So no matter how great the
Speaker 1: atmosphere will end up being, it won't be quite the same.
Speaker 1: But I am happy or at least getting the match,
Speaker 1: the other big match on the show tonight, or the
Speaker 1: other big item on the show tonight. They held the
Speaker 1: first ever tag team Casino Gauntlet match on AW Television,
Speaker 1: and this was easily the weakest of the four casino
Speaker 1: galling matches they have done so far. That's four in
Speaker 1: the last five months. So you talk about taking a
Speaker 1: new concept and driving it into the fucking ground, they
Speaker 1: are well on their way to doing that. I mean,
Speaker 1: we had the first one. I want to say it
Speaker 1: was the end of April, we had another one on
Speaker 1: television maybe in June. We had the one at Wembley,
Speaker 1: which I think was the best one so far, and
Speaker 1: then we had the one tonight which was easily the
Speaker 1: weakest of all of them. And it's not even a
Speaker 1: regular tag team that is going to be challenging the
Speaker 1: Young Bucks at Grand Slam for the aw World Tag
Speaker 1: Team titles. It will be the team of Will Osprey
Speaker 1: and Kyle Fletcher, the two friends. They are going after
Speaker 1: the Young Bucks and the aw World Tag Team titles
Speaker 1: in two weeks. And it's clear to me that they're
Speaker 1: shooting an angle here involving the Kallus family. So it's
Speaker 1: not even though they're not a regular tag team, they
Speaker 1: are friends, right. They've established the friendship between Ospray and
Speaker 1: Fletcher on television already. And we know that Osprey asked
Speaker 1: to be let out of his contract early with the
Speaker 1: Kallus family. Don Caallus let him out, but he owed
Speaker 1: him a favor. This was that favorite. Callous cashed in
Speaker 1: on that favor. Osprey agreed to be in the Gauntlet.
Speaker 1: They won. What's going to go down now at Grand
Speaker 1: Slam we're not going to have new tag team champions,
Speaker 1: but I do think there's a storyline reason why we're
Speaker 1: getting this match, and as far as the angle that
Speaker 1: they will likely shoot when they lose that match on
Speaker 1: that show, the real story of that Gallin match though,
Speaker 1: where it was the Outrunners the Outrunners, And there's probably
Speaker 1: people who are like, what the what If you don't
Speaker 1: watch Collision and you don't watch Rampage, you probably have
Speaker 1: no idea what I'm talking about. But there's a little
Speaker 1: team called the Outrunners and they were super fucking over
Speaker 1: in this match, more over than any other tag team.
Speaker 1: I mean, FTR got a good pop when they came out.
Speaker 1: Osprey obviously is very over, but the Outrunners come out,
Speaker 1: and I mean, you think it was a top tag
Speaker 1: team coming out to the ring. People were going crazy
Speaker 1: for these guys, so they could have had the Outrunners
Speaker 1: go over. I mean, obviously it's a very silly, over
Speaker 1: the top gimmick that they're doing. I mean, they're a
Speaker 1: tag team straight out of the fucking nineteen eighties. I
Speaker 1: think it's entertaining, but they did not pick up the win.
Speaker 1: But I was not expecting them to come out and
Speaker 1: get the kind of reaction that they got on their show,
Speaker 1: which should be assigned to Tony Kahan that he should
Speaker 1: do more with them, meaning we should get to see
Speaker 1: them on Dynamite more often they're on the other shows.
Speaker 1: Clearly they've been getting over slowly, but surely they've been
Speaker 1: getting over on Rampage and Collision, because to come out
Speaker 1: and get the reaction they got tonight was very unexpected,
Speaker 1: At least for me, it was very unexpected. We're going
Speaker 1: to talk about this entire show, which was a mixed bag.
Speaker 1: I thought it was a solid show overall. Not a
Speaker 1: great show, but it was a strong show in terms
Speaker 1: of setting up the card for Grand Slam. Clearly, one
Speaker 1: thing that is very clear coming out of this show,
Speaker 1: Tony Khan is doing the best he can in his
Speaker 1: mind to try to load that show up on September
Speaker 1: twenty fifth and move as many tickets as possible between
Speaker 1: now and then to try to beef up the attendance
Speaker 1: for that show. Whatever the attendance ends up being, it
Speaker 1: will easily be the lowest attendance they've had so far
Speaker 1: for an Arthur Ash show. It just keeps going down
Speaker 1: and down and down. That's why he's doing what he's doing.
Speaker 1: This is your aw Dynamite review again. It is September eleventh,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. I am the Solemn Monster. Thank you
Speaker 1: for choosing me for your Dynamite coverage here tonight. I
Speaker 1: will try to get you in and out as quickly
Speaker 1: as possible here like and subscribe for notifications and again
Speaker 1: your messages, you will see them as they come in
Speaker 1: if they come in, popping up here on your screen.
Speaker 1: We had an opening video package which I actually thought
Speaker 1: was very well done. It was very well put together.
Speaker 1: It had this kind of dramatic music in the background
Speaker 1: showing footage from all Out as John Moxley is explaining,
Speaker 1: and they show Moxley and the members of the Blackpool
Speaker 1: Combat Club except for Uda, who had stayed back in
Speaker 1: the ring to assist Brian after he was attacked. But
Speaker 1: the footage is showing them walking back through the backstage
Speaker 1: area as Moxley is sort of narrating and talking to
Speaker 1: us and cutting a promo and he says he didn't
Speaker 1: enjoy what he did, but he did what had to
Speaker 1: be done, and he said Brian Danielson did not have
Speaker 1: the stomach for this any longer. Two years ago, They
Speaker 1: made a commitment for something real, something that would last
Speaker 1: years after they're gone, an idea that could not be destroyed,
Speaker 1: not for money, not for recognition. Mister patience, mister empathy.
Speaker 1: The greatest man he's ever known. He said, all he
Speaker 1: sees backstage is egos and jealousy when he looks around.
Speaker 1: Moxley said their mentor, obviously referring to William Regel, once
Speaker 1: referred to Danielson as the perfect wrestler. He said Danielson
Speaker 1: was always his lordship's favorite, but Regal saw himself in Moxley.
Speaker 1: Moxley said, He's no hero and he's no villain. What
Speaker 1: he is is the one true king of these lands.
Speaker 1: They tried things Danielson's way. Diplomacy failed. Now he chooses war.
Speaker 1: So I like this, even though they never showed any
Speaker 1: footage of the actual attack on Danielson, and I didn't
Speaker 1: think they would show the spot with the plastic bag
Speaker 1: the suffocation on TV. It's like some of the stuff
Speaker 1: we saw in the Hangman and Swerve Cage matches is
Speaker 1: not suitable for television. I didn't think we were going
Speaker 1: to get a replay of the syringe spot, which was
Speaker 1: stupid anyway, But yeah, they did not show the plastic
Speaker 1: bag spot here, so they said Danielson was at home.
Speaker 1: He was convalescing from his injuries, so he was not
Speaker 1: on the show tonight, Nor was Wheeler Udah, who ex
Speaker 1: Caliber said was with him by his side. I thought
Speaker 1: that was a little strange. I said, well, why is he? Uh?
Speaker 1: Why is he at Brian's side? I so was he
Speaker 1: wiping his ass for him? I mean, does think Brian.
Speaker 1: I think Brian's wife probably has him well taken care of.
Speaker 1: I don't know that Yuda has to be by his side,
Speaker 1: but fairly Da is very loyal to Brian Danielson. So
Speaker 1: after this, they showed Darby Allen skateboarding into the parking
Speaker 1: area entering the venue, and they pointed out on commentary
Speaker 1: that John Moxley the past couple of weeks he's been
Speaker 1: looking for Darby, so tonight you might finally get that
Speaker 1: face to face com ffrontation. After this, it was to
Speaker 1: the ring where Tony Shravanni was standing there and he
Speaker 1: introduced us to the Patriarchy. Christian Cage kill Switch, Nick
Speaker 1: Wayne and Mother Wayne all come down to the ring,
Speaker 1: Christian said. The trio's titles were stolen from them, but
Speaker 1: he rallied by winning the contract in the Casino Gauntlet
Speaker 1: at Wembley Stadium. He recalled Killswitch grabbing him by the
Speaker 1: throat for a choke slam. That was just a tea, remember,
Speaker 1: then he ended up not choke slamming him. Christian said
Speaker 1: he looked into his eyes. He saw what he's been
Speaker 1: waiting to see. He said, Killswitch is a monster and
Speaker 1: a killer, and Killswitch belongs to him. Crowd started a
Speaker 1: Lucosaurus chant. Christian said, his name is Killswitch. He said
Speaker 1: he was on his way to cash in the contract
Speaker 1: it all out, but he decided it wasn't the right time,
Speaker 1: and he said that he will beat Brian Danielson so
Speaker 1: bad that he'll wish his wife Brie was the one
Speaker 1: with see te so that she wouldn't be able to
Speaker 1: comprehend what an embarrassment he was as champion. So he
Speaker 1: declared himself the next aw World Champion, and as the
Speaker 1: patriarchy was leaving the ring, the camera panned the crowd
Speaker 1: panned over to the crowd and spotted Kip Sabian sitting
Speaker 1: in the front row, and then he walked away. So
Speaker 1: a simple promo just to remind everybody that Christian still
Speaker 1: has that contract to cash in. It's basically money in
Speaker 1: the bank rules, so he can cash in for a
Speaker 1: championship match whenever he's getting ready. The Kip Sabian thing,
Speaker 1: I could not care any less about. I'll just be
Speaker 1: honest with you. I assume that has something to do
Speaker 1: with setting something up with him and Nick Wayne, probably
Speaker 1: for an episode of Rampage again. I don't care. In
Speaker 1: the back, Renee interviewed Don Kallis, who was joined by
Speaker 1: Kyle Fletcher and Kenoski takesha Will. Osprey was there, even
Speaker 1: though he has not been part of the Callous crew
Speaker 1: for a few months. Callous made a pitch to have
Speaker 1: Ospbury team with Fletcher in the Tag Team Gauntlet match
Speaker 1: tonight so that they could challenge for the aw tag
Speaker 1: team titles. Said that he had a lot or Osprey
Speaker 1: said that he had a lot on his plate and
Speaker 1: he didn't seem too keen on the idea. Callous reminded
Speaker 1: Osprey that he promised him a favor because he led
Speaker 1: him out of his contract with the group early. So
Speaker 1: he said, you know what, I'm cashing in on that favor.
Speaker 1: So then Kyle Fletcher spoke up. He said, look, I'm
Speaker 1: tired of coming so close and not getting the job done.
Speaker 1: Said that there's no one he would rather win the
Speaker 1: tag team titles with than Will, and Osprey said, look,
Speaker 1: I can't say no to I can't say no to him,
Speaker 1: and the two of them hugged and so it was official.
Speaker 1: Takeshta did not look amused by any of this. We
Speaker 1: had Jack Perry and Leo rush TNT title on the line,
Speaker 1: Action Andretti in Leo's corner. They showed Perry arriving to
Speaker 1: the building in his scapegoat, Van showed him walking through
Speaker 1: the back all the way to the ring. He looked
Speaker 1: angry after losing to Brian Danielson. It all out so
Speaker 1: Perry early in the match here, like in the opening
Speaker 1: minutes of the match, Perry suckered Action Andretti into grabbing
Speaker 1: his foot. He was like kicking at him and trying
Speaker 1: to get under his skin, and he took the bait
Speaker 1: and he reached in. He was trying to grab a
Speaker 1: hold of Perry's foot. So Aubrey Edwards saw this and
Speaker 1: she ejected Action Andretti and I guess that's what you're
Speaker 1: supposed to do if you're the referee. But Adam, it's
Speaker 1: just weird, Like we see so many matches in this
Speaker 1: company where people are just interfering with impunity over and
Speaker 1: over again, maybe finally eventually they get ejected. Here, he
Speaker 1: just tried to reach in and grab the guy's foot
Speaker 1: and she threw him out. I was like, really, that's
Speaker 1: all it takes to get thrown out now, all right,
Speaker 1: make sure there's an even enforcement of those rules though,
Speaker 1: or else I'll have to send Jake Jones after you
Speaker 1: to arrest you. So anyway, this little delay here allowed
Speaker 1: Leo Rush to fight back, hit multiple topaz suicidas. Back inside,
Speaker 1: Perry ran into a Spanish fly for a near fall.
Speaker 1: He fought back with snake eyes into the middle turn buckle.
Speaker 1: Lawn darted Leo Rush into the turnbuckle, but Rush fought back,
Speaker 1: hit a poison RNA, and then tried a springboard stunner
Speaker 1: even though Perry was nowhere near him, but instead Jack
Speaker 1: met him with a running knee strike and then a
Speaker 1: proper running knee his finishing maneuver to put the match away.
Speaker 1: Short match, too short to really be anything special, But
Speaker 1: this was not about making Leo Rush look good. This
Speaker 1: was about getting Jack Perry back in the wind column
Speaker 1: after a loss to Brian Danielson on Saturday. He is
Speaker 1: still the TNT champion, so you know, you got to
Speaker 1: try to keep him strong, so it was a rebound
Speaker 1: win for him. They also so very interesting here during
Speaker 1: the match if you paid attention on commentary, they seemed
Speaker 1: to be sowing the seeds for a future match between
Speaker 1: Jack Perry and Kenny Omega because during the match he
Speaker 1: had used the like Omega's version of a snap German.
Speaker 1: And then on commentary the announcers sent their well wishes
Speaker 1: to Omega and wishing him a speedy recovery. So the
Speaker 1: Omega mentions here and then the the sup plex has
Speaker 1: me thinking that when Kenny is ready to come back,
Speaker 1: that may be the first program for him. That may
Speaker 1: be the first match. Yeah, and it makes sense. I mean,
Speaker 1: you don't want to go right into Okata, you want
Speaker 1: to build to it. But they may be setting something
Speaker 1: up with Perry and Omega for when he comes back.
Speaker 1: So Perry quickly stormed to the back after the match
Speaker 1: was over. Alex Marves tried to catch up with him
Speaker 1: backstage as he made his way back to the van
Speaker 1: down by the river. He was headed towards the van
Speaker 1: and Perry said he he's asked his thoughts about all out.
Speaker 1: Perry said, people like me are crucified in this life
Speaker 1: so they can be worshiped in the next. That's very deep.
Speaker 1: And he got his van and he drove off. After this,
Speaker 1: ex Caliber was running down the rest of the card
Speaker 1: for tonight. I don't know what was going on here.
Speaker 1: He kept messing up people's names. I mean looked to
Speaker 1: me like maybe he hit the sauce a little early tonight.
Speaker 1: Hey brother, I've been there, I've been there. The next
Speaker 1: Caliber was not on his a game tonight. Backstage, Renee
Speaker 1: spoke with Hangman Adam Page, coming off his victory over Swerve,
Speaker 1: Strickland and Chicago It all Out on Saturday night. Hangman
Speaker 1: said that if he had found a thousand homes that
Speaker 1: belonged to Swerve, he would have turned a thousand houses
Speaker 1: into ash. He punished Swerve for what he did to
Speaker 1: him and his family said he wanted everybody to know
Speaker 1: that he meant what he he meant what he did.
Speaker 1: He said that if you got in his way and
Speaker 1: stood between him and Swerve and tried to protect Swerve
Speaker 1: from him. He will find you and he will hurt you.
Speaker 1: So for those of you who may have thought that
Speaker 1: he got that win over Swerve, now maybe he can
Speaker 1: calm down a little bit. Yeah, maybe he can be
Speaker 1: a little bit happy or mellow out a little bit.
Speaker 1: Not the case. This man is still unhinged. He still
Speaker 1: he has the crazy eyes. So as Hangman walked off,
Speaker 1: he knocks some random guy to the ground. I don't
Speaker 1: know if it was a wrestler or not. If it was,
Speaker 1: I didn't recognize who it was. Then he approached top Flight.
Speaker 1: They were standing nearby having a conversation. He was looking
Speaker 1: him up and down. Then he turned to his left
Speaker 1: and he saw the doric order they're standing there, walks
Speaker 1: up to them. They look at him, Alex Reynolds, John Silver, Evoluno.
Speaker 1: Evoluno says he doesn't even know who Hangman is anymore.
Speaker 1: Then he turns to his right and who's standing there
Speaker 1: but double J. That's Je double f JA, double r
Speaker 1: E double T. That was the gimmick in nineteen ninety five.
Speaker 1: I can't believe I'm sitting here in twenty twenty four
Speaker 1: and we're still talking about Jeff Jarrett on TV, but
Speaker 1: there he was the last outlaw face to face with
Speaker 1: Hangman Page. He said his family has promoted wrestling for
Speaker 1: three generations and they've seen guys go down a dark
Speaker 1: path like Hangman is doing right now. Jarrett said they
Speaker 1: always end up full of regret. He said Page would
Speaker 1: regret putting his hands on his wife. And then Hangman
Speaker 1: attacked Jarrett, beat the crap out of him, tossed him
Speaker 1: into a pile of chairs. Karen Jarrett showed up and yelled,
Speaker 1: and so Hangman pulled out his syringe and stuck her
Speaker 1: in the arm with no I'm kidding. I think I'm kenning.
Speaker 1: Who knows right? Who the fuck knows what this guy's
Speaker 1: liable to do. He might drug this woman and throw
Speaker 1: her in the trunk and take her god knows where.
Speaker 1: He may take her back to Jared's house and set
Speaker 1: the house on fire. This man isn't all there. It's
Speaker 1: an unsafe work environment. This man, in the span of
Speaker 1: a few days, he burned down a man's house, He
Speaker 1: committed arson, he injected somebody with a fucking hyperdermic needle.
Speaker 1: There's no telling what he's capable of. So anyway, all
Speaker 1: the wrestlers that were standing around. They rushed over to
Speaker 1: try to help Jeff Jared out Old Double J was
Speaker 1: left leaning. Commander and Alex Abrahontes made their entrance along
Speaker 1: with private party for a trios match. Their opponents were
Speaker 1: already in the ring. Once they got to the ring,
Speaker 1: John Moxley, Marina Shaffir, Claudio Castignoli impacked. They all hit
Speaker 1: the ring and they attacked all the wrestlers from both teams.
Speaker 1: So he had a bunch of mid card guys on
Speaker 1: one side, and you had, well, I guess, the mid
Speaker 1: card guys all around. All the mid card guys got
Speaker 1: their asses handed to them by the Blackpool Combat Club
Speaker 1: and Marina Shaffir actually choked out Commander with a front
Speaker 1: face guillotine, which is not that surprising because Commander is
Speaker 1: like one hundred and fifty pounds. Marina Shaffir, I think
Speaker 1: is actually like she's stronger. She's stronger and bigger than
Speaker 1: Commander is. So he went out like a light, just
Speaker 1: like that. Pac took the microphone and Pack said that
Speaker 1: they were patient, but enough is enough. He said that
Speaker 1: this company is broken. What happened on Saturday was inevitable,
Speaker 1: and so are they. He said, he's been lost for
Speaker 1: a long time, but now he has something to believe in.
Speaker 1: He found his purpose. He said, diplomacy has failed. This
Speaker 1: company is ours, and here I was looking so forward
Speaker 1: to seeing this random trios match. I gotta tell you,
Speaker 1: I'm very disappointed here couldn't tell you the names of
Speaker 1: any of the fucking people on the other side. I
Speaker 1: think I might have seen Josh Woods in there. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure, but man, so I'm so upset that we
Speaker 1: didn't get Random Trios match number twelve here on the show.
Speaker 1: We'll get more into this when Moxley comes back out
Speaker 1: a few segments later, but first we got to talk
Speaker 1: about the Learning Tree. Chris Jericho, Big Bill, and Brian Keith.
Speaker 1: They arrived in the parking area in a Bentley convertible.
Speaker 1: Jericho was wearing his seven thousand dollars jacket that he
Speaker 1: claims was seven thousand dollars that was ruined four years
Speaker 1: ago in an angle on dynamite with Orange Cassidy when
Speaker 1: Orange Cassidy poured orange juice from up above and drenched
Speaker 1: him in his jacket. He has been bitching about this
Speaker 1: fucking jacket for four years now. He showed up and
Speaker 1: he's wearing it. He also had a Jan Sport backpack
Speaker 1: that he says he stole from Orange Cassidy as collateral
Speaker 1: for the money that he owes him for ruining his jacket.
Speaker 1: Jericho said the seven thousand dollars was not inside the
Speaker 1: backpack as Orange Cassidy said it would be this week,
Speaker 1: but something else was and he would show the world
Speaker 1: later on in the show what was in the backpack.
Speaker 1: And then after Jericho and his crew walked away, the
Speaker 1: camera lingered on Jericho's convertible. See that is what you
Speaker 1: call foreshadowing. We had Ricochet one on one with Sammy Gabara,
Speaker 1: first time ever match here, two very similar styles, both
Speaker 1: guys very flashy, so this was more them trying to
Speaker 1: one up each other. They brawled up the ramp. Gavara
Speaker 1: sent Ricochet face first into the entrance tunnel and then
Speaker 1: he scaled the stage. He scaled the set hit a
Speaker 1: big moon salt off of it that took us into
Speaker 1: a commercial break. Sammy wanted a power bomb on the stage,
Speaker 1: but Ricochet back dropped out of it. Double jump sent
Speaker 1: on off the barricade by Ricochet, who followed that with
Speaker 1: a springboard clothes line and then a running shooting Star
Speaker 1: press back inside for a two count. Ricochet wanted a
Speaker 1: death valley driver. Sammy, though countered into a destroyer and
Speaker 1: then a top broke cutter for a two count. Sammy
Speaker 1: went up top rolled through a shooting Star press. Ricochet
Speaker 1: tried a rolling cutter, but Gevara caught him with a
Speaker 1: pump ny. The GTCH was dodged into a Ricochet roundhouse
Speaker 1: kick that led to an axe kick, and then Ricochet
Speaker 1: hit the vertigo sit out reverse DDT for the wind
Speaker 1: That is his new finish that he has been using
Speaker 1: so far, so another win to establish that move and
Speaker 1: another win to establish him on the AW roster. Just
Speaker 1: as the match ended, the Beast Mortos hits the ring,
Speaker 1: flattens Ricochet with a spear. Sammy grabs a chair, makes
Speaker 1: the save. He offers his hand to Ricochet, who accepts,
Speaker 1: and they pay respect to each other as the Beast retreats.
Speaker 1: This was a good showcase win for Ricochet over an
Speaker 1: established AW star, and not only an established AW star,
Speaker 1: but this is a guy who at one time was
Speaker 1: considered one of the pillars of aw right. Well, he
Speaker 1: was part of that pillar's four way a double or
Speaker 1: nothing last year, right, it was Sammy, was Jungle Boy,
Speaker 1: it was MJF. So you had all these guys and
Speaker 1: he was part of the fabric of this company. And
Speaker 1: the funny thing is now he's technically not even on
Speaker 1: the aw roster. He's a Ring of Honor guy ever
Speaker 1: since he came back, and it might have been by
Speaker 1: his request that he come back and start out at
Speaker 1: Ring of Honor. And he know he's Tag team Champions
Speaker 1: there with Dustin, so he's doing his own thing. But
Speaker 1: this supposed AW pillar is now really primarily a Ring
Speaker 1: of Honor star now. But he is an established name
Speaker 1: who has been TNT champion multiple times before. So for Ricochet,
Speaker 1: that's a nice person to get a WINNO. Now we
Speaker 1: know Ricochet is on a collision course with Will Osprey,
Speaker 1: but Osprey set it all out, told him he goes BRV,
Speaker 1: go win some matches, BREV, then we could talk about
Speaker 1: you and me for the international title. BROV. You got
Speaker 1: to rack up some wins, BRV. I'm trying to think
Speaker 1: which is more annoying, is BROV or bro Like the
Speaker 1: Russo bro I think BROV is better. I can tolerate
Speaker 1: Brov Bro just makes me, you know, just makes me
Speaker 1: want to fucking put my head in a vice. I'd
Speaker 1: rather listen to Will Osprey in a promo for sixty
Speaker 1: minutes straight just saying Brev than a Vince Russo promo
Speaker 1: where we hear bro over and over again. Anyway, that's
Speaker 1: win number two in singles competition now for rick O'Shea
Speaker 1: and I like also they've already set him up for
Speaker 1: an opponent for his next match, you know, by having
Speaker 1: more toasts come out and attack him. So he is
Speaker 1: racking up wins now that'll be his third match whenever
Speaker 1: that happens, maybe Dynamite next week. But they seemed to
Speaker 1: be moving full speed ahead for this match with Osprey
Speaker 1: and Ricochet. I thought maybe they would hold off, maybe
Speaker 1: until Revolution. But to me, the way things are moving,
Speaker 1: I don't know about Wrestle Dream, but it feels like
Speaker 1: for sure, by full gear, I would think we're gonna
Speaker 1: get this match between these two. Rene was in the
Speaker 1: back to interview the Continental Champion still after his win
Speaker 1: in the four way match on Saturday, Kazuchka Okada, who
Speaker 1: said that his win and at first he tried to
Speaker 1: talk about it like it was a really difficult thing,
Speaker 1: you know, but I was able to hold on to
Speaker 1: my title. Yeah, but then he said, now it was easy.
Speaker 1: It was an easy for him. Don Kallas and Kenoski,
Speaker 1: Takeshta walk didn't Callous noted that Okada never pinned ta
Speaker 1: Keshta in that four way match, right he pincassidy, He
Speaker 1: did not pin Ta Keshta. So Akada said that Takeshta
Speaker 1: will be a champion, but he will not be the
Speaker 1: continental champion, and then he walked off. But then a
Speaker 1: couple of seconds later, he walked back into a camera
Speaker 1: frame to call Callus a bitch, which popped the crowd
Speaker 1: and Takeshta had to be held back. What did I
Speaker 1: say in my all out review? I said, Takeshta did
Speaker 1: not take the losing fall. All you gotta do is
Speaker 1: have Don Kallas come out on TV and say, my
Speaker 1: guy's not the one who got pinned. This thing between
Speaker 1: you and him is not finished yet, and then we
Speaker 1: get the singles match between them for the championship. And
Speaker 1: to me, it looks like that might be a Grand
Speaker 1: Slam match that could very well be added next week
Speaker 1: to the Grand Slam card. On the twenty fifth Takeshta
Speaker 1: and Okada the continental title sounds good to me. Sign
Speaker 1: me up again, Tony Kahn wants to move tickets for
Speaker 1: the show. They got a reaction tonight too. They didn't
Speaker 1: just get a reaction in Chicago when the two of
Speaker 1: them came face to face briefly in the four way.
Speaker 1: When they were face to face in that backstage segment,
Speaker 1: even it got a rise out of the crowd. A
Speaker 1: crowd tonight, by the way, that was kind of dead
Speaker 1: for large chunks of the show. This was not the
Speaker 1: most enthusiastic AW crowd, but they reacted to the face
Speaker 1: off here. So the AW fans want to see that match,
Speaker 1: So you want to move some tickets. That could be
Speaker 1: another match that helps in that regard. Put Okata in
Speaker 1: the ring and a title match on that show and
Speaker 1: against Takeshta. I mean that that's all you need. You
Speaker 1: don't need any bells and whistles. You don't need to
Speaker 1: turn it into a four way or a six way
Speaker 1: one on one. That's it. It's all you need. Now.
Speaker 1: We had Darby Allen out to the ring. Next he said,
Speaker 1: somebody's been looking for well, I'm right here. So John
Speaker 1: Moxley and Marina Shaffir. They walk out from the crowd
Speaker 1: and Marina got right up in Darby's face, so Moxley
Speaker 1: had to back her off. So Moxley said, I don't
Speaker 1: know what you've seen. I don't know what you've heard.
Speaker 1: Nothing has changed between us. Darby cut him off and said,
Speaker 1: you know, there's a lot that I want to talk
Speaker 1: to you about the two of us. We don't act
Speaker 1: like superstars. We came from nothing. He talked about how
Speaker 1: he used to live in his car. You know, he's
Speaker 1: told his life story before, and he said that he
Speaker 1: doesn't take any of this for granted. That's why he
Speaker 1: wrestles the way that he does. He says he has
Speaker 1: people all the time telling him Darby, slow down, but
Speaker 1: that's why he is the way that he is. He
Speaker 1: takes none of this for granted. It could all be
Speaker 1: over tomorrow. It could all end in an instant. He
Speaker 1: could be fired, he could kill himself. He's gonna climb
Speaker 1: a mountain next year, fall off the mountain, right, so
Speaker 1: he just he lives for the moment. He wants to
Speaker 1: tell Moxley a story that he's never told him before.
Speaker 1: All the people that he wanted to emulate when he
Speaker 1: first got into the business. They all turned out to
Speaker 1: be fake. It all turned out to be you know,
Speaker 1: for the money or whatever the case may be. But
Speaker 1: they were all fake. They were all very phony, but
Speaker 1: not Moxley, which is why he wanted to be just
Speaker 1: like him. Moxley will still go and wrestle at independent
Speaker 1: shows at Jim's because he loves this. That's where the
Speaker 1: two of them met at a gymnasium at an independent show.
Speaker 1: He was so nervous. He got to wrestle his hero,
Speaker 1: and Darby lost, but he said that he gained the
Speaker 1: confidence of that day that he could be in the
Speaker 1: ring with somebody just like John Moxley. He said that
Speaker 1: he would never do to family someone like Sting for example,
Speaker 1: He would never do to his family what Moxley did
Speaker 1: to Brian Danielson. It all at He can never see
Speaker 1: himself doing something like that. So John, what do you want?
Speaker 1: Moxley says, Darby has a title shot at the World
Speaker 1: Champion at Grand Slam, but that match is not gonna
Speaker 1: happen now because the champion is, in his words, indisposed.
Speaker 1: But Darby's not ready anyway. So his argument is that
Speaker 1: even though Darby had a title match that he earned,
Speaker 1: he's not ready to be in a championship match, and
Speaker 1: he's gonna need Darby to go ahead and hand that
Speaker 1: title shot over to him right now. So Darby asks
Speaker 1: mox if he's been drinking again. He said, John didn't
Speaker 1: earn it. He did if he wants it so bad,
Speaker 1: he said, do something about it. And Moxley says, you
Speaker 1: want me to earn it, He said, I'll learn it
Speaker 1: him and Darby New York City Grand Slam. Darby's world
Speaker 1: title shot on the line. He will teach him another lesson.
Speaker 1: He will show him where he is on the food chain,
Speaker 1: far below him. He says, he will never be aaw
Speaker 1: world champion. He doesn't have time to explain right now.
Speaker 1: But he's never lied to Darby. He said, trust me,
Speaker 1: you have no idea what's going on. That title shot
Speaker 1: is going to be his this time. He's going to
Speaker 1: teach him that lesson the hard way. Darby then accepted
Speaker 1: the challenge instead. If Moxley wants to burn this place
Speaker 1: to the ground, not to be surprised when he pulls
Speaker 1: him into the fire. And of course we're dealing with
Speaker 1: Darby Allen here, So when he says something like that,
Speaker 1: you have to take him literally, because he did, after all,
Speaker 1: set a man on fire back at double or nothing.
Speaker 1: Let's not forget so we are not. The big headline
Speaker 1: coming out of the segment here is that we are
Speaker 1: not getting an aw World Championship match at Grand Slam,
Speaker 1: which sucks because that was one of the things I
Speaker 1: was looking forward to if Danielson did win at Wembley,
Speaker 1: which he did, that we would get Brian and Darby
Speaker 1: for the first time. I just thought what an interesting
Speaker 1: clash of styles that would be, and with Brian's run
Speaker 1: coming to an end, this would have been our only
Speaker 1: opportunity to get that match, which is why I'm thinking
Speaker 1: that we may not get a clear winner at Grand Slam.
Speaker 1: I could still see that being a three way match.
Speaker 1: I could see it being all three of them involved
Speaker 1: in the main event in Tacoma, so I would not
Speaker 1: assume it's going to be a one on one match.
Speaker 1: So that aspect of it was disappointing. But there's something
Speaker 1: bigger going on here. This is what Moxley was referring
Speaker 1: to in his promo. He made it very clear to Darby.
Speaker 1: He said, look, you have no idea what's going on here,
Speaker 1: but something big is going down. It's almost like a
Speaker 1: higher power type deal. That's kind of the vibe I
Speaker 1: get from it. So I still feel the way that
Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of you do. Shane McMahon is
Speaker 1: probably involved in this in some way. Shane's probably coming in.
Speaker 1: Tony can't help himself. I do think Shane is going
Speaker 1: to be associated with this story in some form or fashion.
Speaker 1: I don't know what form it's going to take. They
Speaker 1: could probably milk it for at least a few more weeks,
Speaker 1: which is smart. I think it is smart. We'll see
Speaker 1: if it has any impact on the numbers. But this
Speaker 1: could be their hot new angle. How hot remains to
Speaker 1: be seen. The last hot angle fizzled out very quickly,
Speaker 1: so now they're trying something new. There's nothing wrong with that,
Speaker 1: but I still get that gut feeling that you know
Speaker 1: who is going to be involved in this. But also
Speaker 1: I will point out to you him making the statement
Speaker 1: that Darby will never be AW World champion is like
Speaker 1: a flashing billboard that Darby is going to be AW
Speaker 1: World champion, and it may not be at wrestle dream
Speaker 1: or maybe it will be, but it may not be.
Speaker 1: It may not even be this year. But I think
Speaker 1: that Tony Kahan is probably working towards the goal of
Speaker 1: putting the AW World Championship on Darby Allen. It's only
Speaker 1: a matter of when. Now. Look, Darby is also from
Speaker 1: the Pacific Northwest. We talk about Brian, we talk about
Speaker 1: Swerve and that being his hometown or at least where
Speaker 1: he was born. Darby's from that part of the country too.
Speaker 1: That's almost like a homecoming for him as well. So
Speaker 1: I could potentially, I could envision a scenario where not
Speaker 1: only does Darby and Moxley work their way into that
Speaker 1: main event match against Brian at wrestled Dream, assuming he
Speaker 1: defends the title on that show, and why the fuck
Speaker 1: wouldn't he, Darby could very well walk out as AW
Speaker 1: World champion. It is possible. But they're not putting that
Speaker 1: line in there and having Mos go so hard on
Speaker 1: the idea that you'll never be champion unless the idea
Speaker 1: was and I don't mean sort of in the abstract, Oh,
Speaker 1: three years from now, Darby might be champion. Now they're
Speaker 1: working towards something here that includes Darby, I think getting
Speaker 1: the belt. It's just a matter of exactly when do
Speaker 1: they pull the trigger on That could be as early
Speaker 1: as next month, but it won't be at Arthur Ash
Speaker 1: because the title will not be on the line on
Speaker 1: that show. Alex Marvez was trying to interview Christopher Daniels
Speaker 1: in the back when Nigel McGuinness showed up and said
Speaker 1: that he needed a word with Tony Kahan, and Daniels
Speaker 1: has like, got a live show going on here, and
Speaker 1: McGinnis is like, trust me, trust me, just tell him
Speaker 1: because I think he's gonna want to hear what I
Speaker 1: have to say. And we would find out what he
Speaker 1: would have to say a little bit later on. We
Speaker 1: had Mariah May one on one with Queen Amanada. This
Speaker 1: was an aw Women's World Championship eliminator match, so if
Speaker 1: Amanada wins, she would earn the right to challenge for
Speaker 1: the title at a later date. Now this stems from
Speaker 1: what I thought was just an awful segment on the
Speaker 1: pre show. I know a lot of you probably don't
Speaker 1: even bother with the pre show for these pay per views,
Speaker 1: don't you. I mean, they had some matches on there
Speaker 1: that were fine, but they're not important and the shows
Speaker 1: are long enough even without the pre show, that you
Speaker 1: don't have to sit through the pre show, but they
Speaker 1: had sky Blue out there. Sky Blue broke her ankle
Speaker 1: a month ago. She's from Chicago, so she went out
Speaker 1: there for a promo. She was interrupted by Mariah May
Speaker 1: and they had just these these high school schoolyard insults
Speaker 1: back and forth. It was very cringe worthy. I hated
Speaker 1: it was such a terrible segment, but the payoff to
Speaker 1: it was Queen Amanada coming out to try to save
Speaker 1: sky Blue before she could be assaulted by her own crutch.
Speaker 1: That is what led to the match here. For those
Speaker 1: of you who want the backstory, there wasn't much of one,
Speaker 1: but that was the backstory to why we got this
Speaker 1: match here tonight. Late in the match, Mariah hit a
Speaker 1: missile drop kick, Amanada fought out of the corner, followed
Speaker 1: with a snapsuit plex and a released German, and then
Speaker 1: Almanada hit a charging punt kick right to the face
Speaker 1: for two. I thought she kicked her in the face.
Speaker 1: Flush referee got down, he was checking on her. I
Speaker 1: thought for sure this woman was gonna stand up and
Speaker 1: have blood pouring from her fucking nose. But she was okay.
Speaker 1: Mariah fought out of a power bomb attempt, then connected
Speaker 1: on a draping DDT for a near fall. Amanada again
Speaker 1: battled back, went up top, rolled through a double stump,
Speaker 1: Mariah met her with a running drop kick, and then
Speaker 1: hit Storm zero for the wind. Good showing for both women,
Speaker 1: mainly a showcase for Mariah. This was only Amanada's second
Speaker 1: appearance ever on Dynamite, and funny enough, the only other
Speaker 1: match that she ever had on Dynamite was back in January,
Speaker 1: and that match was against Mariah May. That was Mariah
Speaker 1: May's in ring debut on Dynamite and it came against
Speaker 1: Queen Amanada. So here we are now in September, back
Speaker 1: in the ring together. But I thought that it would
Speaker 1: have been helpful to hear from Amanada in a promo
Speaker 1: back state before the match, because again, if you didn't
Speaker 1: see that segment on the pre show, and if you
Speaker 1: don't pay attention typically to what's going on on rampage
Speaker 1: and Collision, you might not even know who this woman was.
Speaker 1: She's out there fighting for the right to try to
Speaker 1: potentially challenge for the aw Women's World Championship, So why
Speaker 1: not allow her to cut a promo you know right
Speaker 1: before she even if it was something like we see
Speaker 1: this with WWE now where they're in the gorilla position,
Speaker 1: cutting the promo, their music hits, they walk out like
Speaker 1: something right before she goes out to the ring, just
Speaker 1: to explain, you know why this is so important to her.
Speaker 1: Just nothing. They just send her out there, a woman
Speaker 1: who's never on dynamite, but for one appearance fucking nine
Speaker 1: months ago, it would have been nice to hear a
Speaker 1: little something from her. Mariah took the microphone she was
Speaker 1: rolling around in the ring and she said that she
Speaker 1: still has not had her Women's Championship celebration after winning
Speaker 1: the title at Wembley. She still has not had her celebration.
Speaker 1: Something is missing, she said, someone is missing. Mina Shira
Speaker 1: Kawa please come back. Yes, I agree, Mina, please come back.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get Mina back. That's never a bad thing.
Speaker 1: The Young Bucks were backstage and they brought up how
Speaker 1: they wanted to have the greatest tag team division of
Speaker 1: all time when they started aw well to bad. You
Speaker 1: can't always get what you want. Actually they kind of
Speaker 1: had that at the beginning. Lately not so much. Five
Speaker 1: years later, they're still here doing all the heavy lifting.
Speaker 1: They said they hear the whispers of fans wanting a
Speaker 1: new team to take over the tag team division instead
Speaker 1: of them be upset that the teams aren't good enough
Speaker 1: to beat them, and Nicholas said that this is the
Speaker 1: reason they booked this Casino Gauntlet tonight. He wishes good
Speaker 1: luck to everybody in the Gauntlet and said they're gonna
Speaker 1: need it, and they, being the Bucks, are gonna be
Speaker 1: out there to watch the match live. Then we had
Speaker 1: the Learning Tree Chris, Jericho, Big Bill and Brian Keith
Speaker 1: against the Iron Savages. Jericho worked the match in his
Speaker 1: stained seven thousand dollars jackets. Brian Keith made a hot
Speaker 1: tag or blind not a hot tag. Jesus a blind
Speaker 1: tag into the match and hit a diamond dust off
Speaker 1: the ropes to Jacked Jamison. Jack jameson, baby, let's get jacked.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be more exciting than this match was here,
Speaker 1: So diamond dust to Jacked Jamison, after which Jericho back
Speaker 1: in placed his boot on Jamison. I'm sure he'll be
Speaker 1: drinking some Jamison when the show is over. And with
Speaker 1: his boot on Jamison, he posed and he got the
Speaker 1: three count. So after the match Jericho talks about his
Speaker 1: fucking jacket again. If I never hear about this jacket again,
Speaker 1: it'll be a day too soon. Talks about his jacket again,
Speaker 1: which is why he stole Orange Cassidy's backpack. What a feud.
Speaker 1: By the way, can we just sit here for a
Speaker 1: second and admire what a wonderful feud this is? What
Speaker 1: an amazing feud this is. We have Chris Jericho complaining
Speaker 1: about a jacket that was stained by orange juice four
Speaker 1: years ago on TV crowing about seven thousand dollars that
Speaker 1: he is owed. Orange Cassidy's backpack is stolen. And the
Speaker 1: item inside the backpack that Jericho told us that he
Speaker 1: would reveal to the world was a frame photo of
Speaker 1: best friends from back in the day when it was
Speaker 1: Statlander and Cassidy and Trent and Chuck. It was a
Speaker 1: photo of all of them together. He said that Cassidy
Speaker 1: is still obsessed with friendship. He says that there are
Speaker 1: no friends in wrestling, and if he thinks he has friends,
Speaker 1: he's being used. Pull your hands out of your pockets
Speaker 1: and your head out of your ass and pay me
Speaker 1: my money. Jericho wanted to be paid. Imagine Jericho doing
Speaker 1: collections for the mob. I would pay him whatever he
Speaker 1: wants just to shut up so I don't have to
Speaker 1: hear the whiny voice. I think he would be quite successful.
Speaker 1: Orange Cassidy was shown on the big screen said that
Speaker 1: he doesn't have all of Jericho's cash, but his boys
Speaker 1: you're coming with it. And his boys turned out to
Speaker 1: be Mark Briscoe and Kyle O'Reilly. They were driving one
Speaker 1: of those big Bobcat machines and they used it to
Speaker 1: pour seven thousand dollars or what was supposed to be
Speaker 1: seven thousand dollars. I guess didn't look like seven thousand dollars,
Speaker 1: but it was supposed to be seven thousand dollars worth
Speaker 1: of pennies into the convertible into the Bentley and then
Speaker 1: Cassidy tossed a dollar in to make exact change. Jericho
Speaker 1: back in the ring was furious. He threw a fit,
Speaker 1: even though the car was not actually damaged, he poured
Speaker 1: some change into it. So what do you know the
Speaker 1: damage that we have seen done to cars on wrestling
Speaker 1: television before? I thought when they drove the Bobcat thing,
Speaker 1: I thought they were gonna have your poor cement like
Speaker 1: they did in McMahon's corvette all those years ago. I
Speaker 1: thought they were gonna fill it with the as Jim
Speaker 1: Ross would call it, cement. They put coins in there.
Speaker 1: This guy's flipping out like this thing was flattened like
Speaker 1: a pancake, like Sid's car was when he feuded with
Speaker 1: Goldberg and WCW. This sucked. I hate this. I hate
Speaker 1: everything about this, this stupid. It's lame. And by the way,
Speaker 1: I feel vindicated because it barely got any reaction from
Speaker 1: the crowd because you could hear the crowd audio as
Speaker 1: they were showing everything on the screen and Jericho's flipping out.
Speaker 1: It barely got any reaction at all. Nobody cares. Nobody cares.
Speaker 1: This stuff is so this, this learning Tree stuff, anything
Speaker 1: that they are involved in, Jericho is involved in. Right now,
Speaker 1: I just I cannot bring myself to Cay. I just
Speaker 1: can't do it. I just can't do it. So Jericho
Speaker 1: and Cassidy, they're gonna have a match on Dynamite next week. Good,
Speaker 1: let's blow this thing off once and for all and
Speaker 1: move on. Please for my sanity, Oh my god, Now
Speaker 1: we get to the good stuff here. Because after a break,
Speaker 1: Nigel McGinnis was in the ring, he said that there's
Speaker 1: something he needed to get off of his chest with
Speaker 1: Darby Allen putting his title opportunity on the line of
Speaker 1: Grand Slam against John Moxley will not be an AW
Speaker 1: championship match anymore like there was originally supposed to be.
Speaker 1: So that's good news for the champion, he said, who's
Speaker 1: probably strapped to an iron lung, gasping for air like
Speaker 1: Justin Roberts when he got choked at by his own tie.
Speaker 1: It's not so good for AAW. As a former world
Speaker 1: champion himself, he believes the champion should at least be
Speaker 1: competing at Grand Slam. And then McGinnis pulled out a
Speaker 1: piece of paper looked like a contract and he was
Speaker 1: asking how many how many years he has had to
Speaker 1: watch Brian Danielson's career having success that should have been his.
Speaker 1: He was living the life in the career that he
Speaker 1: thought he would have, He said. Danielson is afraid of
Speaker 1: Nigel McGinnis. He's afraid of the one match that everybody
Speaker 1: wants to see. But Tony Kahn is not afraid. He
Speaker 1: knows a money match. When he's I thought that I
Speaker 1: almost said money mark. He knows a money match. He
Speaker 1: probably knows the money mark too, knows a money match
Speaker 1: when he sees one. So a Grand Slam, it will
Speaker 1: be Brian Danielson one on one with Nigel McGuinness at
Speaker 1: Arthur Ashe Stadium, and he guarantees that. At Arthur Ash Stadium,
Speaker 1: he said Oasis is going to play him to the ring,
Speaker 1: which was a very interesting thing for him to kind
Speaker 1: of drop in there. So he's claiming that Oasis will
Speaker 1: be there live. I guess I mean that maybe he's
Speaker 1: not saying that the band will actually be their live.
Speaker 1: Maybe he's saying the music. Maybe the music will play
Speaker 1: him to the ring. I heard that though, and I
Speaker 1: read that as Oasis will be there to play him
Speaker 1: to the ring at Arthur Ash. He says, but will
Speaker 1: Danielson join him for the final countdown or will it
Speaker 1: be the final match of the American Coward? The ball
Speaker 1: is in Danielson's court, So first and foremost, I'm very
Speaker 1: happy that we are finally going to get this match.
Speaker 1: I didn't think I was losing hope that it was
Speaker 1: gonna happen. Wembley really would have been the best place
Speaker 1: for it. That would have been ideal, especially in front
Speaker 1: of that many people, whatever number of forty six fifty thousand,
Speaker 1: there were a lot of people there that will not
Speaker 1: be at Arthur Ash Stadium this year, let's put it
Speaker 1: that way. So that would have been ideal. That didn't happen.
Speaker 1: But we are going to get the match. I'm happy
Speaker 1: we're gonna get the match, and I think it's gonna
Speaker 1: be a great match. Okay, So let me just say
Speaker 1: that right off the bat. That being said, you cannot
Speaker 1: ignore the logic gap here. Cannot ignore There's two things
Speaker 1: about this. Number one is the obvious logic gap, which
Speaker 1: is that earlier in the show we were told that
Speaker 1: the World Championship match that had been advertised for weeks
Speaker 1: is now off, and it's off now. John Moxley is
Speaker 1: the one who said that Brian is indisposed. They're not
Speaker 1: exactly on the best of terms right now. Maybe he's
Speaker 1: just saying that, you think, okay, maybe Brian will be there,
Speaker 1: right but no, they made it pretty clear Brian is indisposed,
Speaker 1: and Tony con has made the match between John Moxley
Speaker 1: and Darby Allen. But then only a few segments later
Speaker 1: you have Nigel McGinnis come out and say I've got
Speaker 1: a contract in my hand for a match with me
Speaker 1: and Brian Danielson at Grand Slam. An ex Caliber says, well,
Speaker 1: that's if Brian is cleared by that point. So if
Speaker 1: you try to apply some level of logic here, you
Speaker 1: can say that the idea is that Danielson is beat
Speaker 1: up right now and he's very iffy for the show,
Speaker 1: and therefore they want to wait until he is back
Speaker 1: to one hundred percent before he defends his championship. So
Speaker 1: they're going to call the title match off for now.
Speaker 1: But then Nigel shows up and says, well, I want
Speaker 1: to match with Danielson if he's cleared to compete, doesn't
Speaker 1: have to be for the title, and that's how they
Speaker 1: left it. If he's cleared, then we'll get Danielson and
Speaker 1: Nigel and it's a non title affair. That's how that's
Speaker 1: me trying to apply logic to this. But yes, I
Speaker 1: agree to the people who I'm sure saying well, it
Speaker 1: doesn't make any sense. Either he can wrestle or he
Speaker 1: can't wrestle. I know it's stupid, but to go back
Speaker 1: to what I said at the beginning of the review,
Speaker 1: I think they it's two things. I think they realize
Speaker 1: that it's now or never to do this match, and
Speaker 1: Tony Kahn wanted an attraction for that show. He's trying
Speaker 1: to sell tickets. He's really been struggling trying to move
Speaker 1: seats for the show. So he pivoted. He changed, you know,
Speaker 1: plans a little bit, shook things up, which isn't always
Speaker 1: a bad thing to shake things up a little bit
Speaker 1: if things feel very stagnant. But logic be damned, because
Speaker 1: it just it's very stupid. But here's the other thing
Speaker 1: that also kind of bothers me, and it's a little disappointing.
Speaker 1: They are going into this match very quickly. Now. I
Speaker 1: said that I would have loved to have seen the
Speaker 1: match it all out. You would have had the same
Speaker 1: issue with all al You had one week to build
Speaker 1: that show, to be fair, you would have had the
Speaker 1: same problem there. But here you're not gonna have any
Speaker 1: promos between them unless Danielson is back on the show
Speaker 1: next week. For this level of hatred that Nigel has
Speaker 1: had for this man and the history between them, I
Speaker 1: feel like there's at least one really great in ring
Speaker 1: face to face promo segment that we can get out
Speaker 1: of those two and my fear is that we may
Speaker 1: not get it. That just because they haven't announced it
Speaker 1: doesn't mean it won't happen on TV next week, or
Speaker 1: they may throw it out there on an episode of Collision,
Speaker 1: you know, next maybe next weekend. It could still happen.
Speaker 1: I hope it does. I really hope it does. What
Speaker 1: a waste it would be if for all this time
Speaker 1: for them to just announce the match, they just had
Speaker 1: Nigel go out there and announce the match, and then
Speaker 1: the only thing we get out of it maybe is
Speaker 1: like some pre tape vignette from Danielson. I want to
Speaker 1: see these two either doing some kind of a split
Speaker 1: screen via satellite live interview deal or get them in
Speaker 1: the ring and let them go face to face cut
Speaker 1: promos on each other. And I just don't know if
Speaker 1: we have enough time to make it happen. There's only
Speaker 1: one Dynamite left before Grand Slam, so it feels very rushed.
Speaker 1: Because it is, it is very rushed, and because of that,
Speaker 1: I feel like we're not gonna get out of this
Speaker 1: what we should. We're just gonna go right into the match,
Speaker 1: and I feel like that would be such a waste
Speaker 1: because it's not just about the match. It should never
Speaker 1: just be about the match or the matches. There has
Speaker 1: to be something else there to it. You've got a
Speaker 1: story here, You've got a rich history between these two.
Speaker 1: Tell that story. Let them tell the story in the
Speaker 1: ring before the match and get people really excited, even
Speaker 1: more excited to want to go see it. So we
Speaker 1: might yet get it. But if we don't, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be very disappointed. But here we go, baby, Brian and
Speaker 1: Nigel back in New York fifteen years later. This is
Speaker 1: going to be something special. I'm looking forward to it.
Speaker 1: Where we at on the likes I haven't even checked
Speaker 1: since the beginning of the stream. So get those thumbs in,
Speaker 1: Get those thumbs in, get those thumbs up. Where three
Speaker 1: forty eight, we're still off from our goal. I don't know,
Speaker 1: got about fifty more to go. We got a vignette
Speaker 1: from Hook sitting on the steps somewhere on a New
Speaker 1: York City street. You know how I knew this? You
Speaker 1: know how I could tell that I'm from New York City.
Speaker 1: I could tell just based on the trash pile up
Speaker 1: on the sidewalk behind him. I could almost pinpoint the street, almost,
Speaker 1: But he was sitting there and he was talking about
Speaker 1: Roderick Strong. He respects Roddy once his buddies attacked him
Speaker 1: after he choked Roddy out, though things changed. That's not
Speaker 1: the Roddy that he respects. But he's challenging Strong anytime,
Speaker 1: any place to a match for the FTW time fine.
Speaker 1: The show closed with the Tag Team Casino Gauntlet for
Speaker 1: a future shot at the AEW World Tag Team Championships,
Speaker 1: currently held by the Young Bucks. This was the first
Speaker 1: tag team Casino Gauntlet that AW has ever done, but
Speaker 1: it was the fourth Casino Gauntlet match in the last
Speaker 1: five months. This should be saved for twice a year attraction.
Speaker 1: I've said that before. You could even do once a
Speaker 1: year as part of a pay per view, but I'd
Speaker 1: be fine doing it twice a year. But when you
Speaker 1: do it four times in five months and we may
Speaker 1: not have seen the last one now, you're just taking
Speaker 1: a concept that worked and you're just gonna beat it
Speaker 1: to death until nobody cares about it. So Tony, please
Speaker 1: let this be the last one for a while. They
Speaker 1: are generally very fun, but my fear is you just
Speaker 1: keep doing them over and over, they're gonna lose that
Speaker 1: special factor to them. The way it works, as I'm
Speaker 1: sure you're all aware by now, you're usually twenty one entrance.
Speaker 1: Not all twenty one will make it out typically because
Speaker 1: the match can end at any moment. It's not like
Speaker 1: a Royal rumble where everybody has to be called out
Speaker 1: to the ring before the match can end. You can
Speaker 1: come out at number one and pin number two and
Speaker 1: the match is over, simple as that. That's how it works.
Speaker 1: So the Bucks came out and they took a seat
Speaker 1: on the stage as FTR entered as team number one.
Speaker 1: Team number two will Osprey and Kyle Fletcher, so they
Speaker 1: went at it for a while. Vincent and Dutch the
Speaker 1: Righteous entered at number three, another team that never shows
Speaker 1: up on Dynamite. Matt Tavin and Mike Bennett were out
Speaker 1: fourth representing, and it didn't hit me until I heard
Speaker 1: them mention the Undisputed Kingdom. I totally forgot about the
Speaker 1: Undisputed Kingdom. I'm not gonna lie like I know, like
Speaker 1: Roddy is around and stuff, but just in terms of
Speaker 1: the faction itself, because it's fucking dead, like there is
Speaker 1: no Undisputed Kingdom anymore. You have the Kingdom and you know,
Speaker 1: Roddy is with the Kingdom, and that's it. That's all
Speaker 1: you have. There is no more Adam Cole, there is
Speaker 1: no more reward Low. We don't know when we'll see
Speaker 1: them ever again. They're done for now. The Undisputed Kingdom
Speaker 1: is a thing of the past. It is a relic.
Speaker 1: The fact that they're even still calling it that and
Speaker 1: acknowledging it, I don't even know what the point of
Speaker 1: that is. I mean, you talk about one of the
Speaker 1: great failures creatively in the history of this company. This
Speaker 1: one is. This one's on the list. This one is
Speaker 1: definitely on the list. The Acclaimed was out at number five.
Speaker 1: Number six was MXM, the former maximum Male mid Carters.
Speaker 1: They were back here on Dynamo or models, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: they were back here on Dynamite. First Dynamite appearance. They've
Speaker 1: been making appearances on Ring of Honor and on Collision
Speaker 1: or not Collision Rampage, right, they haven't been on Collision,
Speaker 1: They've been on Rampage and Ring of hon on it.
Speaker 1: So this was their debut here on Dynamite. What happened
Speaker 1: to Wardlow, says dead Waffles. Fuck if I know, I've
Speaker 1: lost all interest. I Honestly, I don't even give a show.
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna ask the question anymore, because what's
Speaker 1: the point. There's no point. He'll reappear somewhere else when
Speaker 1: its contract is up, and then he'll try to resuscitate
Speaker 1: his career. Until then, I don't really give a fuck.
Speaker 1: But yes, we had Madden and men Sore. They were
Speaker 1: out at number six. They've been working on other programs,
Speaker 1: but they got some FaceTime tonight on this show. Top
Speaker 1: Flight was out at number seven, which gave us a
Speaker 1: fun little sequence between will Ospray and Dante Martin. FTR
Speaker 1: caught Anthony Bowens with a shatter machine and everybody in
Speaker 1: the gauntlet broke up the pin at the same time.
Speaker 1: Then out to the ring at number eight, we have
Speaker 1: got the Outrunners, and oh my god, the reaction that
Speaker 1: these guys got from this crowd was not what I
Speaker 1: was expecting. The Outrunners are again, they're another team. Rarely,
Speaker 1: if ever, do you see them on Dynamite. They are
Speaker 1: a mid to lower card act in the company. They're
Speaker 1: a fun act. You know, they're supposed to be a
Speaker 1: throwback to so, you know, like a nineteen eighties team
Speaker 1: right off of NWA Television or AWA Television. But they
Speaker 1: came out and they got the biggest pot of anybody
Speaker 1: in the match. FTR was close, but these guys got
Speaker 1: the biggest reaction of anybody. And you could see it too.
Speaker 1: You could see everybody they were standing up, they were
Speaker 1: clapping for these guys. They were excited to see Turbo
Speaker 1: Floyd and Truth Magnum who just picked up their first
Speaker 1: win on Friday. So these guys have been slowly getting
Speaker 1: over on the secondary shows to come out and get
Speaker 1: this kind of reaction. Something is clicking with them now.
Speaker 1: If you didn't see it, I should mention this. Earlier
Speaker 1: today on aw's Twitter page, they posted a video. It's
Speaker 1: like a minute long. It's like a workout video. Again.
Speaker 1: I swear to god, it's something straight out of nineteen
Speaker 1: eighties NWA. It's a workout video with the outrunners and
Speaker 1: they applied they applied some like eighties filters to the
Speaker 1: video to make it look like something off a VHS tape.
Speaker 1: It's actually quite good. Likes it came out. It came
Speaker 1: out nicely. So again they have an entertaining act. They're
Speaker 1: hardly a main event act, but they're over so Tony
Speaker 1: cons should really think about doing something more with these
Speaker 1: guys and maybe building them towards a tag team championship win.
Speaker 1: Not right now, but take their time and really build
Speaker 1: them up to where the fans want to see them
Speaker 1: win the tag team titles. Why not? Why not tell
Speaker 1: that story? Would that not be more interesting than running
Speaker 1: back the Bucks and FTR for match number seven where
Speaker 1: the Bucks against almost anybody else that we normally see
Speaker 1: on these shows. I'd be down for that. Grizzled young
Speaker 1: Veterans entered at number nine. They were met on the
Speaker 1: stage though by FTR. They never even made it to
Speaker 1: the ring. FTR went up on stage cut him off.
Speaker 1: They ended up brawling to the back. They have a
Speaker 1: match by the way FTR and GYV on Collision this Saturday,
Speaker 1: everybody piled up on the floor outside, which left Turbo,
Speaker 1: Floyd and Mansor on the ropes. It did a superplexed
Speaker 1: spot onto the pile on the floor. Everybody fell down
Speaker 1: back inside. Darius Martin hit Vincent with a missile dropkick.
Speaker 1: Mike Bennett gave Darius a pile driver. Kyle Fletcher hit
Speaker 1: Bennett with a brainbuster. Dante Martin went for a top
Speaker 1: rope splash, but Fletcher got the knees up. Will Osprey
Speaker 1: then came in and blasted him right in the back
Speaker 1: of the head with the hidden blade, and Kyle Fletcher
Speaker 1: pinned him to win it for his team. And so
Speaker 1: Will Ospray and Kyle Fletcher are now number one contenders.
Speaker 1: They win the Gauntlet, they've got a title match in
Speaker 1: their back pocket. When for Grand Slam September twenty fifth,
Speaker 1: it will be for the tag team titles Ospray Fletcher
Speaker 1: against Matt and Nick Jackson. That match is now official.
Speaker 1: What do I think is going to happen? Oh? I
Speaker 1: think they're going to lose. And I think that's where
Speaker 1: Don Challis turns on Will Ospray. I'm surprised it's taken
Speaker 1: this long. When Ospray went to him a few months
Speaker 1: ago and said, look, Don, I appreciate everything you've done
Speaker 1: for me, but I got to do this by myself.
Speaker 1: I want out, I want out of the Kallis family.
Speaker 1: And he was hesitanting. He goes, I don't normally do this,
Speaker 1: but okay, and he let him go and I said, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: this is not a man to be trusted. But that
Speaker 1: was like two months ago, three months ago. Now nothing's happened,
Speaker 1: but they've circled back to this story where Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: cashing in my favor that you owe me for letting
Speaker 1: you out of your contract. If they don't win this match,
Speaker 1: then that's going to be bad news for will Ospray,
Speaker 1: and I guess the question at that point is if
Speaker 1: they do some kind of a turn on him. Is
Speaker 1: is Fletcher going to turn on Ospra and then they
Speaker 1: work a match between Osprey and Fletcher. Maybe it wrestled
Speaker 1: dream right, hold off on the Ricochet match until full
Speaker 1: gear in November. That's how I see this playing out,
Speaker 1: because you know things are going to go sour with
Speaker 1: Callous and Osprey. It's just it's inevitable. And Ospray and
Speaker 1: Takesha we've already gotten it. Takesha has got his own
Speaker 1: thing going on with Ocanna, so Ospray and Fletcher with
Speaker 1: Fletcher turning on him is the only thing that really
Speaker 1: makes sense to me. As far as the Gallant match itself, overall,
Speaker 1: it had its fun moments. Again, the outrunners and how
Speaker 1: over they were to me were the real highlight. But
Speaker 1: this was the weakest easily the weakest of all the
Speaker 1: Gallet matches so far, and I feel like it's the
Speaker 1: law of diminishing returns. The more that they keep doing
Speaker 1: these things, the less it's going to mean and the
Speaker 1: less fun they're going to be, which is why I
Speaker 1: hope that they put a moratorium on these for a
Speaker 1: while before they come back to a next year. So
Speaker 1: this was not This was not great. The last time
Speaker 1: they headlined Dynamite with a Gauntlet was back in June,
Speaker 1: and it was fucking great. It was one of the
Speaker 1: best Dynamite made events of the year. That's not what
Speaker 1: this was. That is not what this was. So that
Speaker 1: was Dynamite. It was a mixed bag in some ways
Speaker 1: because there were parts of the show that we're boring.
Speaker 1: I mean, the Jericho stuff is insufferable to set through
Speaker 1: with the jacket and you know, it's just insufferable. But
Speaker 1: then there was some good stuff and again they did
Speaker 1: a very good job, I will say, of setting up
Speaker 1: some big matches for Grand Slam in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: I'm very curious after the announcement tonight of Danielson and
Speaker 1: McGinnis what kind of effect that has on tickets. Like
Speaker 1: I said, they were as of five or six days ago,
Speaker 1: they were thirty seven hundred. Let's just assume they were
Speaker 1: at four thousand right coming into this show tonight. Now
Speaker 1: they announced Moxley and Darby, but the big match was
Speaker 1: Danielson and McGinnis. And so usually wrestle Ticks will have
Speaker 1: updates about how many more tickets have been added. I'm
Speaker 1: just curious what that match is worth. How many extra
Speaker 1: tickets does that match worth? How many tickets do you
Speaker 1: think that match announcement is worth? We could take some
Speaker 1: gentlemen's bets here, see who ends up being the closest.
Speaker 1: Take a look at the Twitter pol what did you
Speaker 1: think of dynamite following all out? Fifty two percent thumbs up,
Speaker 1: forty eight percent thumbs down. Pretty close. All right, as usual,
Speaker 1: let's go to the early ones that came in. We'll
Speaker 1: start there. Fire Panda was number one, So shout out
Speaker 1: to fire Panda. Thank you for the I don't know
Speaker 1: says if your father had written a book, would it
Speaker 1: be a guide on how to grow a kick ass
Speaker 1: mustache like him? So grooming tips with Papa Monster. I
Speaker 1: don't know about that. It was a pretty sweet mustache.
Speaker 1: I couldn't pull it off. I couldn't pull it off,
Speaker 1: but he had a pretty bitch and mustache. I will
Speaker 1: say thank you, Firepanda Casper the tryhard favorite Eric the
Speaker 1: Actor moment ac act. You know, I don't really have
Speaker 1: any singular Eric the Actor moment. I can't think of
Speaker 1: anyone in particular that really stands out to me. He
Speaker 1: kind of annoyed me, to be honest with you, I
Speaker 1: was never really an Eric the Actor fan. He just
Speaker 1: kind of kissed me off. Sorry. Artie was very entertaining,
Speaker 1: though the show was never the same When Alredy left
Speaker 1: already had his own problems, though Johnny with the two bucks.
Speaker 1: Why did Darby give the match with nothing in return?
Speaker 1: Because Darby is an idiot. He kind of explained it
Speaker 1: in his promo where he just he doesn't take things
Speaker 1: for granted and he just sort of lives for the moment.
Speaker 1: And is Darby the kind of person who's gonna say
Speaker 1: no to a challenge? Is Darby the kind of person
Speaker 1: who's you know, going to say no, no, it's my
Speaker 1: title shot. No. I mean it kind of fits his
Speaker 1: character that he's like, all right, whatever, fuck it, man,
Speaker 1: you want you want me? You got me anybody else,
Speaker 1: I would say it doesn't really make a lot of sense.
Speaker 1: But it's Darby. The guy's out of his fucking mind.
Speaker 1: Nothing ever makes sense with Darby. The stuff that he
Speaker 1: does does not make any sense. He's a crazy person.
Speaker 1: Jerome Eugenio, do you think when Darby wins it's his
Speaker 1: first aw world title, that it should be against MJF.
Speaker 1: I think that that would be very appropriate. It doesn't
Speaker 1: have to be against MJF, but with the history between them,
Speaker 1: I think that would probably make the most sense. I
Speaker 1: don't think it will be against MJF, though, But I
Speaker 1: see where you're coming from. I see what you're saying.
Speaker 1: There got a lot of history between those two. I
Speaker 1: just don't think it's gonna happen that way. Jessica Herman,
Speaker 1: what's going on, Jessica? Thank you for the five. I
Speaker 1: really feel like the Gauntlet match shows how weak and
Speaker 1: boring the tag team division is right now. Thank you
Speaker 1: for all the content my number one podcast. Thank you, Jessica.
Speaker 1: You are the number one Jessica here on these streets. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Gauntlet match, I think really did illustrate just how
Speaker 1: lackluster the division really feels right now. I think that's
Speaker 1: a fair point. I was shock, you know what. It
Speaker 1: surprised me. Every Gauntlet match they've done so far is
Speaker 1: built around this idea of surprises, and that's probably part
Speaker 1: of the reason why I didn't have as much fun
Speaker 1: with it. You expect that there's going to be at
Speaker 1: least one surprise in there, and there was none. There
Speaker 1: were no surprises in this, so I think that's part
Speaker 1: of the reason why it just didn't feel as special.
Speaker 1: They usually give you something like that, and they didn't
Speaker 1: give you anything like that here. RAF had a lovely
Speaker 1: time in Paris at the Paralympics, but it's good to
Speaker 1: be home and watching live WWEAW starting at two am
Speaker 1: was not working for me. Brother, I don't blame you.
Speaker 1: I don't blame you. Can you imagine staying up for like,
Speaker 1: especially some of these SmackDown shows that we've been getting lately,
Speaker 1: staying up until like three o'clock in the morning for SmackDown, Like,
Speaker 1: who would do that? Don't do that? Whatever you do,
Speaker 1: don't do that. Oz and Gloria is with the five
Speaker 1: oz Thank you very much. AW is coming out here
Speaker 1: in late October. Got tickets, but have not seen a
Speaker 1: single bit of advertising anywhere on the ground or online
Speaker 1: for the locals. I'm not surprised it's one of their
Speaker 1: week One of their weaknesses is still even with the
Speaker 1: people they have brought in, is their lack of local
Speaker 1: advertising in many markets. I feel like in some markets
Speaker 1: they do a better job than others. When Swerve was champion,
Speaker 1: he was doing quite a bit of media. MJF going
Speaker 1: into Forbidden Door, was doing local television here in New York.
Speaker 1: He was on some of the local news stations. But
Speaker 1: it's very hit or miss, and I do think that
Speaker 1: it's a real problem for them, especially in some of
Speaker 1: the smaller markets. They just have to do a better
Speaker 1: job of advertising their brand and getting out there and
Speaker 1: promoting these shows, and they're just not doing the job
Speaker 1: they should be doing, and I think it's reflected in
Speaker 1: the poor ticket sales they have in some of these venues.
Speaker 1: But as thank you for the para super chats. Jake
Speaker 1: Jones from earlier got us started on the Gundhar train
Speaker 1: with the fifty. I already read your message, Jake. I
Speaker 1: gave you first the first reading Dibbs here on the stream. Jake,
Speaker 1: thank you. LC Killer seventeen says never forget nine to eleven.
Speaker 1: Oh one, still remember where I was on that fateful day,
Speaker 1: David theorying with the fifty dollars gunhal again. I read
Speaker 1: David's message earlier and it's got a follow up here
Speaker 1: coming up, so we'll get to it. We'll get to
Speaker 1: it here in a second. Yeah, I just realized this.
Speaker 1: I didn't scroll down here in this list. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's why I was like, how come I'm not catching
Speaker 1: up with this list? Here we go. Now we're caught up.
Speaker 1: David theoring with another fifty dollars again, thank you very much.
Speaker 1: That was from an hour ago. Bender mc simpson. I
Speaker 1: do love Jack Perry's scapegoat Van. Also, I didn't think
Speaker 1: Nigel looked good at all in I have doubts for
Speaker 1: him and Brian a Grand Slam. Well, what was it
Speaker 1: about him that didn't look good? He looked fine to
Speaker 1: me for a guy who hasn't had a match since
Speaker 1: twenty eleven. I mean, what were you expecting in a
Speaker 1: in a Galland match, He's going to be held to
Speaker 1: a higher standard in a singles match, But in a
Speaker 1: Gabland match like that, I mean, what were you what
Speaker 1: were you expecting? Look at Okada in the gauland what
Speaker 1: did Ocata do in that match? Right? They did their spots.
Speaker 1: I think he's going to be just fine. He's been
Speaker 1: working out in the ring and doing some mock matches
Speaker 1: now for many months, so he's in shape, he's feeling good,
Speaker 1: and this is a match that he has wanted for
Speaker 1: a very long time. So if he was going to
Speaker 1: put his best foot forward and want to go out
Speaker 1: there and not fuck up and not have people thinking,
Speaker 1: oh man, you know he's okay, but like, it's not
Speaker 1: the guy I remember, Like, believe me. This is a
Speaker 1: match he has wanted for so long. The match we
Speaker 1: get from him on the twenty fifth, I think is
Speaker 1: going to surprise a lot of people who may have
Speaker 1: their doubts about what he can do. I smoke a
Speaker 1: lot of weed. Our boy is back. He has returned.
Speaker 1: Did I watched the debate? I was occupied last night.
Speaker 1: We were live. We were live at a great Tuesday
Speaker 1: night Titans last night. I see some people in the
Speaker 1: chat who were there last night. I hope you guys
Speaker 1: enjoyed that show. Smoke a lot of pass it around.
Speaker 1: We got a lot of people in the chat. You
Speaker 1: gotta share you can't hoard it all for yourself. You
Speaker 1: gotta share. You gotta pass some of that stuff around.
Speaker 1: Pull some pieces off Boothman Entertainment with the one hundred
Speaker 1: dollars super Chat again. Happy birthday, brother, from me to
Speaker 1: you and everybody in the chat, wishing you well here
Speaker 1: on your special day. Bender mc simpson. Sometimes I think
Speaker 1: Tony Kahan listens to your show, but then he books
Speaker 1: another casino Gauntlet, and then I think maybe he doesn't. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it's the latter and not the former. Others
Speaker 1: do him. I'm not so sure about Oz Glorious. The
Speaker 1: stories I care about on AWTV get much less time
Speaker 1: weekly than the twenty to twenty nine year old, boring
Speaker 1: as fuck prospects that we are forced fed endlessly bring
Speaker 1: back Dark. You might get your wish because with this
Speaker 1: new deal that we still have not heard about, there
Speaker 1: may not be exclusivity anymore with Warner Brothers Discovery. If
Speaker 1: that's the case, they may be able to resurrect Dark,
Speaker 1: if that's something Tony kn't even wanted to do. They
Speaker 1: had to get rid of Dark because they have an
Speaker 1: exclusivity clause rather in their current contract. That may not
Speaker 1: be the case with this new deal. Plus, we don't
Speaker 1: know what this AW shockwave thing is for that they
Speaker 1: trademarked House of Has with the six bucks. Unrelated to
Speaker 1: anything potentially happening in AW. But what's the surname that
Speaker 1: you first think of in relation to New York wrestling? Hope?
Speaker 1: I remember in time or a Grand Slam in New
Speaker 1: York the first name when I think of New York. Honestly,
Speaker 1: I think of Bruno. I think Bruno San Martino, who
Speaker 1: probably sold that more Madison Square Garden shows and anybody
Speaker 1: in the history of that building when it comes to wrestling. Hey,
Speaker 1: tab and the chat ta b what's going on? Man?
Speaker 1: Hold on a second, here, I have a little friend
Speaker 1: joining us here. Hold on, my friend is dead. That's
Speaker 1: what happens. House of Has the Thank you man, thank
Speaker 1: you for the chat h s rue. Any advice on
Speaker 1: what to say to a coworker who claims to be
Speaker 1: a wrestling fan, thus, blithering idiot coworker confused Liv Morgan
Speaker 1: with Alexa Bliss. Oh boy, don't let Bliss fan knows fan?
Speaker 1: Can you? Can you? Do you believe this that this
Speaker 1: person confused Liv Morgan with Alexa Bliss. As far as
Speaker 1: what to say to your coworker, I would just correct
Speaker 1: your coworker. I mean, if your co worker is a
Speaker 1: wrestling fan. I mean they're both blonde, so I mean
Speaker 1: it's not unreasonable to think that somebody who isn't a hardcore,
Speaker 1: diehard fan would get them confused. I wouldn't go too
Speaker 1: hard on them. I thought you were going to tell
Speaker 1: me that, you know it's one of these, like you
Speaker 1: watch that fake stuff. You know it's fake, right, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't go too hard on them. People confuse blondes all
Speaker 1: the time. Take it from me. I get messages every
Speaker 1: day every single white guy in an old wrestling photo. Hey,
Speaker 1: that looks like Solom Monster. Brian Danielson, a young Brian
Speaker 1: Danielson that kind of looks like Solo Monster. Orange Cassidy
Speaker 1: that kind of looks like Solo Monster. Jack Swagger that
Speaker 1: kind of looks like Solo Monster. There was some Swedish
Speaker 1: fucking soccer player that somebody tweeted me once that looks
Speaker 1: like Solom Monster. So basically, any white guy with blonde hair,
Speaker 1: I'm mistaken for them all the time. I'm kind of
Speaker 1: used to it. Jeremy Rose, how do we book Dangle?
Speaker 1: Bryan to miss Grand Slam to defend the title. But
Speaker 1: he's okay to fight Nigel. Shouldn't Darby be like, what
Speaker 1: the fuck? No? Because Darby already agreed that he's You
Speaker 1: know what, brother, you want to fight me for my
Speaker 1: title shot, I'll give you a shot of my title.
Speaker 1: He agreed to the match with MOCKX. He could have
Speaker 1: said no, he agreed to it. He's an idiot. It's
Speaker 1: actually quite on brand for Darby. H The Juliette three
Speaker 1: sixteen just broke that Nikki Bella has filed for divorce
Speaker 1: from her husband. I did see that. Good for her.
Speaker 1: I didn't comment on the story because it's none of
Speaker 1: my business. I really don't have any anything to add
Speaker 1: that anybody else hasn't already added. So good for her.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's something that I'm happy to hear. Sucks
Speaker 1: because they have a small child together, But that did
Speaker 1: not seem like a good relationship for her to be
Speaker 1: in retro Koh, you said higher power, wasn't one McMahon
Speaker 1: being a higher power enough? Fight Club Shane and his
Speaker 1: goofy ash jacket with his swollen, sweaty face is not needed. Brother,
Speaker 1: you're preaching at the choir here, I'm the one who
Speaker 1: argued against bringing him in in the first place. There
Speaker 1: will be an initial buzz around him, an initial excitement
Speaker 1: from a lot of people who are gonna say, oh
Speaker 1: my goodness, we have a McMahon on aw television. This
Speaker 1: is amazing. And then it will die down like every
Speaker 1: other thing they do. And as you said, what we
Speaker 1: will be left with is what did you say? He said, swollen, bloated,
Speaker 1: sweaty Shane McMahon throwing his phantom punches. That is what
Speaker 1: we will be ending up with. That's what we will
Speaker 1: be left with. But I feel like it's coming. The
Speaker 1: real CS is I think Brian and Nigel should have
Speaker 1: happened in Wembley all in this year. But still looking
Speaker 1: to do it I think he means still looking forward
Speaker 1: to it at Grand Slam. So am I becom see
Speaker 1: clearly his name is Jonathan Good aka John Moxley, Jonathan Bad.
Speaker 1: He tried to fucking suffocate somebody with a plastic bag.
Speaker 1: He is now Jonathan Bad. Derenzo saw Monster is better
Speaker 1: at getting the learning tree over than Jericho is. Oh
Speaker 1: fuck Yet, of course I could have told you that
Speaker 1: David theoring with the fifty dollars gunthar bomb yet again.
Speaker 1: My earlier comment came from me feeling like aw was
Speaker 1: trying to do so many things but not achieving much
Speaker 1: and not understanding due to the logic gaps. But what
Speaker 1: you said about it, and including Shane, cleared things up.
Speaker 1: Thanks for clarifying. That's why I am here. That's why
Speaker 1: I'm here. I'm glad to help, always, glad to be
Speaker 1: of service. David again, Man, thank you, thank you for
Speaker 1: the support Project Libertad. Remember the tweet Jericho did a
Speaker 1: long time ago about how if terrorists hijacked a WWE
Speaker 1: plane nine to eleven would not have happened. Imagine that
Speaker 1: with the learning tree. Well, Jericho has tweeted a lot
Speaker 1: of stupid shit over the years. And Ricky Cornflakes, do
Speaker 1: you think hologoat will dethrone brain? I have no idea
Speaker 1: what you're talking about, hollogat the hell is that? I
Speaker 1: have no idea? Is uh I smoke a lot of
Speaker 1: weed passing it around like I told him to? Because
Speaker 1: if not, I'm going to be very upset. What shirt
Speaker 1: am I wearing? It is a special custom Brett Hitman
Speaker 1: heart shirt from an Etsy store called chicken feed chicken
Speaker 1: feed store. I don't know. Is he talking about hologram?
Speaker 1: But what does that mean though? Brain? Well even if
Speaker 1: you say hologram, well, hologram will thrown brain? What is brain?
Speaker 1: What the I have? What is that? I have? No idea?
Speaker 1: Is that like pinky in the brain I have? I
Speaker 1: haven't got a clue. It's too late to try to decode.
Speaker 1: We are at four hundred and seventeen likes that see that.
Speaker 1: I like that. I understand so weird, so weird. Let's
Speaker 1: be the booker, Ladies and gentlemen. It is now time
Speaker 1: to be the booker. Uh ricky cornflakes in the chat,
Speaker 1: says Daniel Bryan. He's Brian Daniel. SI. So will hologram dethrown?
Speaker 1: Is what you're trying to say? It said, Holla, goat,
Speaker 1: Am I supposed to know that that's Holograham? And the
Speaker 1: answer is no, I saw hologram the other night. Am
Speaker 1: I missing something with this hologram? Shit? I mean I
Speaker 1: must be missing something. It looks like it looks like
Speaker 1: any other small masked lutrador that we've seen in aw before.
Speaker 1: Explain to me exactly why I should be impressed by Hologram.
Speaker 1: I'm not seeing it all right, Tag Team be the Booker.
Speaker 1: We begin with r K Brow, Randy Orton, and Matt
Speaker 1: Riddle trying to I guess, dress up here as Randy
Speaker 1: Orton in this image with the goatee. RK Bro could
Speaker 1: be a thing again. One day. I have a feeling
Speaker 1: Riddle will eventually be back in WWA. Apparently Riddle thinks
Speaker 1: the same thing. RK Bro against Cactus Jack and Terry Funk,
Speaker 1: both teams former tag team champions in WWE, that would
Speaker 1: get Randy Orton back in the ring with Cactus Jack.
Speaker 1: That was the match that put Orton on the map
Speaker 1: back at Backlash in two thousand and four. So that's
Speaker 1: a winner right there. Over to the ladies, and Daddy
Speaker 1: Ugarte says, Hologram is Tony Kahan's call from his n
Speaker 1: sixty four days. Honestly, I mean it really does. It
Speaker 1: looks like something that Tony kh like sketched out on
Speaker 1: his pad in the middle of a fucking school day
Speaker 1: when he was a kid. He's like, one day, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna have a wrestler that looks just like this, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call him Hologram. But then again, I feel
Speaker 1: like a lot of what Tony Kahan sort of says
Speaker 1: in books, it's just him living out these you know,
Speaker 1: teenage wrestling fantasies that he's had. All Right, Women's be
Speaker 1: the booker. We are going to kick things off with
Speaker 1: the former WWE Women's World Champion Bailey. Who is gonna
Speaker 1: be is Bailey on the show this Friday, that first
Speaker 1: USA Network show. I thought she was isn't Is she
Speaker 1: wrestling on Friday? I can't remember now? Now? We got
Speaker 1: Cody and Solo in the cage. Bailey won on one
Speaker 1: with Mariah May. This is stardom Mariah May. But Bailey
Speaker 1: and Mariah May, there you go. That's a winner. You know,
Speaker 1: who have exchanged DMS with each other. She mentioned this
Speaker 1: in an interview she did a few months ago. She
Speaker 1: was at a convention of some kind, but she got interviewed.
Speaker 1: And I believe that Mariah has said that she and
Speaker 1: Tiffany Stratton have been in touch. Sometimes people confuse them again,
Speaker 1: the whole blonde thing. But they've talked to each other
Speaker 1: via DM and they're big fans of each other's work.
Speaker 1: Maybe one day, maybe one day they'll get to work together.
Speaker 1: How about that? Tiffany Stratton and Mariah May. But Bailey
Speaker 1: and Mariah Man. That's a winner right there. So we're
Speaker 1: two for two so far. We are indeed on the
Speaker 1: right track. We just need one more. It's all we need.
Speaker 1: It's all we need. We begin with the big Red Machine.
Speaker 1: Caine Areas has one day as WWE champion. That was
Speaker 1: it right there. That's still the best Cane outfit, still
Speaker 1: the best Cane look in the history of the character.
Speaker 1: And it will be Kane defending that title against let's
Speaker 1: find out Nick Jackson of the Young Bucks and Caine
Speaker 1: for the WWE Championship. How are we feeling about this?
Speaker 1: Because Nick Jackson has actually had some pretty bangor singles matches,
Speaker 1: and I feel like those of you who really dislike
Speaker 1: the Young Bucks would probably enjoy Caine just like squashing
Speaker 1: and destroying one half of the Young Bucks. So what
Speaker 1: are we thinking here? I gotta make a decision. I
Speaker 1: got I got a five second count down here, five
Speaker 1: four three, all right. I was on the fence. I
Speaker 1: was thinking about it, but that's not the main event.
Speaker 1: I was hoping to book here. Hair versus hair, you
Speaker 1: can make it a hair match. I am curious though,
Speaker 1: if we add a stipulation to that, I mean, it's
Speaker 1: already it's already over. But let's let's what kind of
Speaker 1: match would it be with Cain and Nick Jackson. Let's see,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think the hair stipulation is actually
Speaker 1: in here. It'd be kind of funny if we landed
Speaker 1: on it. Nope, we landed on hell in a cell
Speaker 1: and Nick Jackson in hell in a cell. That'd be
Speaker 1: pretty crazy, But I still give that the buzzer. How
Speaker 1: about an Inferno match? See, I'd hate to be in
Speaker 1: a match like that, Like an Inferno match, if I've
Speaker 1: got long hair, like Undertaker and Kane that very first
Speaker 1: Inferno mash. They both have long hair. I'm sure they
Speaker 1: wet it before they went out there, but I'd be
Speaker 1: fucking I'd just be terrified. If I had liked shave
Speaker 1: my fucking head, I wouldn't. I wouldn't have anything hanging
Speaker 1: off my body. Well, I mean yeah, except the one thing.
Speaker 1: But all right, final super chat. Fuf fuck that tree
Speaker 1: that's our anthem. Fuck that tree is our anthem. You're
Speaker 1: on this channel. That was from Uffman Entertainment. Blue Jays
Speaker 1: had a no hitter against our Mets into the ninth
Speaker 1: inning and then the Mets bats woke up and they
Speaker 1: won six to two on my birthday. Let's go Mets
Speaker 1: for Grimace. Yeah, the Mets were being no hit all
Speaker 1: the way to the ninth inning and they pulled it
Speaker 1: out and they won the game. There's something going on,
Speaker 1: something going on with these Mets, Hey Recanson. Shout out
Speaker 1: to Reakinson, who has been a channel member FYI for
Speaker 1: thirty four months. He's going to his ten year old
Speaker 1: high school or ten year, ten year I read that wrong,
Speaker 1: his ten year high school reunion this Saturday in Minnesota.
Speaker 1: Crazy how fast time flies? Wow? Ten year high school reunion?
Speaker 1: Huh Yeah, that is pretty crazy. This year was actually
Speaker 1: twenty would have been my twenty year college reunion. How
Speaker 1: about that? I didn't go, But it is crazy how
Speaker 1: quickly time goes by, Isn't it amazing? I smoke a
Speaker 1: lot of weed with the nine ninety nine suggestion for
Speaker 1: tag team, be the booker and wait tag team, be
Speaker 1: the Booker land on make shift team. When you land here,
Speaker 1: you pick two wrestlers from the singles wrestlers and create
Speaker 1: your makeshift team to take on a tag team in
Speaker 1: be the Booker. You know, that's actually a very clever idea.
Speaker 1: That is not a bad idea. I will consider that.
Speaker 1: I actually I will. I will write that down. That
Speaker 1: is actually a very clever idea. I will consider it.
Speaker 1: Thank you, brother Rizzo with the five Like you solo,
Speaker 1: I've given up asking about Wardlow. But where has Cole been?
Speaker 1: Was he hurt worse than they thought? Oh he was.
Speaker 1: He was hurt badly. I mean he broke his ankle.
Speaker 1: I think in multiple places. He had more than one surgery.
Speaker 1: I mean he really fucked himself up. So that's why
Speaker 1: he's been out for so long. I mean it's been
Speaker 1: a year. It was a year ago at Grand Slam
Speaker 1: this month when MJF wrestled Samoa Joe that was the night.
Speaker 1: So he's been out for twelve months. It's a long time.
Speaker 1: It was a very serious injury and he's still not
Speaker 1: back yet. I don't know that we're going to see
Speaker 1: him in the ring again this year. He may go
Speaker 1: all twenty twenty four without wrestling a match, that's how
Speaker 1: bad the injury was. And David theory that Superchat Halla
Speaker 1: Goat against Brain I thought was a Demeter bully and
Speaker 1: Superchat for a second, Demeters, superchats are goaded in nonsense.
Speaker 1: I mean what but just like again, if you read that,
Speaker 1: you're not going to recognize what it is right away,
Speaker 1: Halligat and Brain. I mean, it's like, cut me some
Speaker 1: slack here. How am I supposed to know what that is?
Speaker 1: And the Juliette breaking news Kurt Angle to appear at
Speaker 1: GCW on November twenty third, Well, I mean maybe maybe
Speaker 1: he'll be commissioner for a night or something. Hopefully he's
Speaker 1: not doing anything physical GCW. I mean, my god, someone's
Speaker 1: got to protect Kurt. Put him in like bubble wrap
Speaker 1: or something. Kurt Angle at a GCW show. I mean
Speaker 1: that's a little scary. Yeah, you know, Daddy Ugarte, it
Speaker 1: is true the last Grand Slam and that really derailed
Speaker 1: their biggest storyline. It really fucked everything up. It really
Speaker 1: did screwed up the Undisputed Kingdom. Hey rds, Harry, what's
Speaker 1: going on? Man? Says? Do I think Osprey or Okada
Speaker 1: will end up world champions sometime next year? Says me? Personally,
Speaker 1: I think Okada will be world champion before Ospray. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say before as I'm gonna say no I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say Osbrey becomes champion first Boots with the five. If
Speaker 1: I fall asleep during the live stream and at six am,
Speaker 1: YouTube shows one person viewing the stream. Does it mess
Speaker 1: up anything on your end? No? No, doesn't mess anything
Speaker 1: up on my end. Have at it. You might wake
Speaker 1: up and just be very confused though when you wake up,
Speaker 1: But it's all good. Besh Bess just noticed now after
Speaker 1: how long have we been here? Two hours? That Brian
Speaker 1: Danielson is in gray in the layout. Yes, because he
Speaker 1: was He was executed out of the Blackpool Combat Club.
Speaker 1: So that's why Claudio and Daniels. That's why Claudio and
Speaker 1: Moxley are colorized and Danielson is in black and white.
Speaker 1: Are you the first person who noticed that tonight? I
Speaker 1: did that on purpose. Thank you guys for all the questions.
Speaker 1: Some good stuff tonight, good support. Love to see it.
Speaker 1: Bring that with you on Friday, because it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a big SmackDown. First SmackDown back on USA network. They're
Speaker 1: off of Fox. Back on USA on Friday night. We
Speaker 1: have Cody Rhodes defending the WWE title in a steel
Speaker 1: cage match against Solo Socoa, and I'm expecting the return
Speaker 1: of one Roman Reigns on that show. Will anybody turn
Speaker 1: against Cody? Are they gonna shoot another big angle with Cody? Also,
Speaker 1: we talked about the possibility on TNT last night that
Speaker 1: maybe a bad Blood what we're looking at could potentially
Speaker 1: be a tag team match. Maybe Cody and Roman Reigns
Speaker 1: on the same side up against Solo and Jacob Fatu.
Speaker 1: That's a possibility as well. But I'm expecting a big show,
Speaker 1: maybe a big angle to go down on Friday Night.
Speaker 1: I will be live with the post show as soon
Speaker 1: as SmackDown is ova. Apparently fire Panda thought the same
Speaker 1: thing regarding Danielson being in Gray. Yeah. Well, that's the
Speaker 1: other thing about Friday. It is Friday the thirteenth. I
Speaker 1: almost forgot about that. That's right, Friday the thirteenth, SmackDown.
Speaker 1: Those are always fun. Those are always fun. I'll try
Speaker 1: to I'll have to have some fun then with the
Speaker 1: artwork for that. It'll get my creative juices flowing here.
Speaker 1: Oz and Glorias need a sixty minute Takeshta Okata Barnburner. Hey,
Speaker 1: I don't care if it's sixty minutes, thirty minutes, twenty
Speaker 1: five minutes. I just want to Keshta and Okata in
Speaker 1: a singles match, one on one. I don't care how
Speaker 1: long it is. Just give it to me and I'll
Speaker 1: be happy. Am I going to Grand Slam. No, I
Speaker 1: will be here. I will be live that night. As
Speaker 1: soon as Grand Slam is over, I'll be on the channel.
Speaker 1: I will not be at Grand Slam itself. Be well,
Speaker 1: stay safe, come on back on Friday night with a
Speaker 1: SmackDown recap and hit that leg button on your way out.
Speaker 1: I'll see you guys then
