Speaker 1: Tonight was a three hour block of aw programming, three
Speaker 1: hours Dynamite and Collision, the go home show to Full Gear,
Speaker 1: which is coming up from Newark this coming Saturday. And
Speaker 1: you know, last week we had two blood and guts matches.
Speaker 1: Last week, we had a lot of blood spilled. Last week,
Speaker 1: we saw crazy shit. We saw people thrown through flaming tables.
Speaker 1: We saw people going into broken glass, and we saw thumbtacks,
Speaker 1: and we saw barbed wire. We saw all kinds of
Speaker 1: crazy stuff. But you would almost never even know that
Speaker 1: that happened a week ago because the only person who
Speaker 1: really was held off the show and was referred to
Speaker 1: almost like in the past tense and was not there
Speaker 1: because he supposedly suffered second degree burns, which may well
Speaker 1: be legit if you watched the show last week was
Speaker 1: Darby Allen. Most everybody else was on the show. They
Speaker 1: were wrestling in many cases, and again it's as if
Speaker 1: what we saw last week did matter or didn't even happen,
Speaker 1: which I thought was very, very weird considering how much
Speaker 1: blood was spilled on that show last week. But blood
Speaker 1: in the Gods is in the rear view. We got
Speaker 1: Full Gear coming up. We added a few more matches
Speaker 1: to the card tonight, of course we did so I
Speaker 1: will have a full rundown of what the card is
Speaker 1: going to be this weekend. We'll go through my very
Speaker 1: quick predictions later on at the end. But tonight we
Speaker 1: had the return of Kenny Omega. He wasn't on the
Speaker 1: show for very long. He didn't do too much, but
Speaker 1: we haven't seen him in a little bit, so he
Speaker 1: was back on the show tonight. We had Mercedes Monet
Speaker 1: in the main event of Collision, the Boston Girl. They
Speaker 1: were in Boston tonight, so they saved her for the
Speaker 1: very end of the show. She was wrestling Red Velvet,
Speaker 1: who we have not seen in the ring since June,
Speaker 1: in a basically kind of a unification match or whatever
Speaker 1: you want to call it, because we had the Ring
Speaker 1: of Honor Women's Television Champion against the interim Women's Television Champion.
Speaker 1: Is if anybody gives a shit about the interim or
Speaker 1: even frankly non interim Ringovater Television Championship, I certainly don't.
Speaker 1: That was the main event though on Collision. I'll give
Speaker 1: you one guess as to who went over in that match.
Speaker 1: It's all about pushing Mercedes and Statlander, which is coming
Speaker 1: up on Saturday for the only championship that really matters,
Speaker 1: which is the aw Women's World Championship. So that was
Speaker 1: in the main event at the end of the show,
Speaker 1: and it was it was a journey to get there
Speaker 1: from start to finish. This was a long show. One
Speaker 1: of the many reasons I hate three hours. I don't
Speaker 1: care what the promotion is, I fucking hate it. But
Speaker 1: because Full Gear is coming up on Saturday, you can't
Speaker 1: have Collision on Saturday instance, I guess instead of doing
Speaker 1: it on Thursday, they decided to do a three hour block,
Speaker 1: so that is what we ended up with. We also
Speaker 1: had a couple of women's Tag Team Title Tournament matches
Speaker 1: on this show. I was curious coming into this, what
Speaker 1: are they going to do at Full Gear because there's
Speaker 1: a lot of women who are missing and there really
Speaker 1: isn't enough time to set up the finals for that show.
Speaker 1: We got our answer tonight. We are going to have
Speaker 1: all of the women who are in the semi final
Speaker 1: round of the Tag Team Title Tournament, all of those
Speaker 1: teams are going to be in a match on Saturday.
Speaker 1: That has been added with a very interesting stipulation. That
Speaker 1: is completely and utterly unnecessary. But since we're adding stipulations
Speaker 1: to everything on this show, I guess Tony Kahn figure
Speaker 1: we need a stipulation for this too. We'll get into that.
Speaker 1: We also found out that the Continental Classic is officially
Speaker 1: starting on the show next week, which usually it does
Speaker 1: coming out of full gear, and that will take us
Speaker 1: to I assume World's end. So Continental Classic time is
Speaker 1: almost here. That's what we're gonna talk about here, and
Speaker 1: I'm going to try to get you out of here
Speaker 1: as quickly as I can because I was not a
Speaker 1: fan of this show tonight. I was pretty bored by
Speaker 1: a lot of this show tonight. This was not one
Speaker 1: of the stronger go home shows that they have had.
Speaker 1: I cannot tell you that this show tonight made me
Speaker 1: any more excited to watch this pay per view on Saturday.
Speaker 1: If I told you that, I would be lying to you.
Speaker 1: But we're going to talk about Dynamite. We're going to
Speaker 1: talk about collision. We are live here on YouTube. It
Speaker 1: is a Wednesday night. It is November nineteenth, twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1: I am the Solemn Monster, celebrating eighteen years of the
Speaker 1: Sound of All November Long Super chats are open. I
Speaker 1: saw that our boy Joseph did a little hit and
Speaker 1: run earlier, so we'll be getting to his and all
Speaker 1: of your questions as well later on here in the stream.
Speaker 1: And if you missed any of the other content this
Speaker 1: week Big Raw Recap show on Monday night, coming out
Speaker 1: of that Madison Square Garden Show sound off this past
Speaker 1: weekend episode nine thirty eight, please go back and check
Speaker 1: that out. What are you waiting for? That'll be the
Speaker 1: they were waiting for you when we are done here.
Speaker 1: And also be aware no SmackDown review. On Friday night,
Speaker 1: they opened the show with Bobby Lashley. This feels like
Speaker 1: eighty four years ago, Bobby Lashley against Ricochet, with the
Speaker 1: winner of this entering the Casino Gauntlet at full gear
Speaker 1: in the number one spot. Because in the Casino Gauntlet,
Speaker 1: of course, it could end at any moment, so you
Speaker 1: want to be in that match as early as possible,
Speaker 1: or else you may not be able to make it
Speaker 1: out to the ring. So whereas in the Royal Rumble
Speaker 1: you would not want to be number one, in a
Speaker 1: match like this, you want to be the first person
Speaker 1: out there or the second person out there. Number one
Speaker 1: and number two are effectively the same thing, but that
Speaker 1: national championship will be decided in the Casino Gauntlet. This
Speaker 1: new title that they are adding two new championships. The
Speaker 1: women's tag team titles have not yet been decided. But
Speaker 1: we're also going to have you know what the crazy
Speaker 1: thing is, now that I think about it, We're going
Speaker 1: to have a new national champion before we even have
Speaker 1: women tag team champions. That to me is just fucking ridiculous.
Speaker 1: Ex Caliber reminded all of us that the Full Gear
Speaker 1: Countdown Special, by the way, would air tonight after collision.
Speaker 1: Fuck you, Yeah, not sticking around for that, but if
Speaker 1: you want four hours of aw enjoy. So once Bobby
Speaker 1: Lashley and Ricochet were in the ring, Ricochet took the microphone.
Speaker 1: I think they had already rang the bell, and he
Speaker 1: took the microphone and he says that you know, he
Speaker 1: uh healing on the Boston Crab bringing up the Philadelphia
Speaker 1: Eagles mentioned Fly Eagles Fly. He says he knows that
Speaker 1: Patriots fans don't remember what it's like to win a
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. The only good thing to come out of
Speaker 1: Massachusetts is his wife. He said that he was surprised
Speaker 1: Ariel Helwani did not ask Tony Kanna about MVP having
Speaker 1: dementia since he called the national title the international title.
Speaker 1: Last week he called Lashly a bald idiot rambling, and
Speaker 1: Lashly finally choked lamb him out of the ring onto
Speaker 1: the gates of agony, and then Lashly was about to
Speaker 1: steamroll all of them, which he did, including launching Tota
Speaker 1: Leona over the guardrail by the timekeepers area. I don't
Speaker 1: know if he landed on the table that was there
Speaker 1: the floor, but he went right over that guardrail. Ricochet
Speaker 1: side stepped a corner charge back inside. He got a
Speaker 1: schoolboy for a two count. Then he fired off a
Speaker 1: whole host of kicks and a running shooting Star moonsalt combo.
Speaker 1: Ricochet rolled through a top rope shooting Star press attempt,
Speaker 1: and then he pulled Bryce Remsburg in front of him,
Speaker 1: which allowed him to rake the eyes loaded up for
Speaker 1: the spirit gun and Ricochet charge. Lashley caught him though,
Speaker 1: into a big spinebuster and a spear and thanks for coming, Ricochet,
Speaker 1: That's all she wrote. And just like that, Bobby Lashley
Speaker 1: wins and he will be number one in the Casino Gauntlet.
Speaker 1: You know Ricochet's promo at the beginning of this match
Speaker 1: was longer than the match itself. I don't know if
Speaker 1: that's a good thing or a bad thing. It's certainly
Speaker 1: not a good thing. But lastly, is number one in
Speaker 1: the Gauntlet. It does not make it. I know, in theory,
Speaker 1: it makes it more likely he might win it. Actually,
Speaker 1: in sort of think about it, put your wrestling thinking
Speaker 1: cap on here, it makes it less likely because it's
Speaker 1: a little too obvious. If Bobby Lashley is coming out
Speaker 1: there at number one. Oh man, he's got the he's
Speaker 1: got the advantage in this match. Sure he does. So
Speaker 1: we know one person who's not winning the Gauntlet on Saturday,
Speaker 1: and Ricochet also, Like you would think maybe they're setting
Speaker 1: up Ricochet for a win. Man, he got fucking squashed
Speaker 1: basically here in this match. I don't think so. I
Speaker 1: think they could potentially be setting this up for someone
Speaker 1: that people aren't thinking about. I don't think that just
Speaker 1: because Ricochet doesn't really have a whole lot to do
Speaker 1: and because of the way he lost here, that necessarily
Speaker 1: means he's gonna win the championship. But you know what,
Speaker 1: even if he did, Like how sad is that you're
Speaker 1: gonna introduce this new championship. Look at the way that
Speaker 1: they booked Ricochet on this show. I'm not even saying
Speaker 1: that it didn't make sense that Bobby Lashley would wreck
Speaker 1: this guy, but like he's treated like a total Jabron.
Speaker 1: Now you turn around on Saturday and you put this
Speaker 1: championship on him, What does that say for the national title?
Speaker 1: Like it literally just becomes something to give to someone
Speaker 1: who does not have anything going on. So here, we
Speaker 1: will give you a belt. If you can introduce a
Speaker 1: new championship, at least put it on somebody that you're
Speaker 1: actually planning on pushing. I got a different idea about this.
Speaker 1: Talk about that when we do the predictions later Samo
Speaker 1: Joe was backstage with Katiori Shabata said that it must
Speaker 1: feel good for Hangman Adam Page to be a Fighting
Speaker 1: World Champion. Joe said that he was told if he
Speaker 1: interferes tonight in Hangman's match, he will lose his aw
Speaker 1: World title match on Saturday. Joe said, Page's whole world
Speaker 1: of joy and happiness is about to get very different,
Speaker 1: very quickly. He said, Hangman is guilty of crimes and
Speaker 1: transgressions against the and it will be at the hands
Speaker 1: of Sabata deadly by design, violent by intention. Tonight, Shabata
Speaker 1: begins Page's payment and at full Gear, Joe said he
Speaker 1: will fully collect. Backstage, we saw the young Bucks watching
Speaker 1: video of their match from Full Gear back in twenty twenty. Ah,
Speaker 1: the old days, Remember when we used to gather here
Speaker 1: on the channel back in the pandemic days at Daily's place.
Speaker 1: I don't really reminisce about the pandemic days too much
Speaker 1: because I really just don't want to think about those days.
Speaker 1: But those were the early days of the Dynamite reviews
Speaker 1: and the aw pay per view reviews, and it's very
Speaker 1: interesting to go back and think about the product then
Speaker 1: as compared to the product now as we sit here
Speaker 1: five years later. It is very interesting. So they're watching
Speaker 1: back footage of that match where they teamed with Kenny Omega.
Speaker 1: Redee Piquette walks in. She asks the Bucks if they
Speaker 1: would join the don Kallis family. Are you going to
Speaker 1: join the don Kallis family? And before they could answer,
Speaker 1: Callus showed up. He told the Bucks to go show
Speaker 1: the world why you are the best tag team on
Speaker 1: the planet because their match was coming up next. And
Speaker 1: then after you guys can give all the Rubes out there,
Speaker 1: your answer as far as you're joining the family. He
Speaker 1: gave them another grandiose introduction on their way out to
Speaker 1: the ring, shitload of pyro. The Bucks did not look
Speaker 1: overly enthusiastic about any of this. But it was the
Speaker 1: Bucks and Josh Alexander against Skyflight. Many of you may
Speaker 1: be asking, what what's that. It's a team, it's a trio.
Speaker 1: It's Scorpio Sky and top Flight hence Skyflight. Now, I
Speaker 1: won't fault you if you have no idea what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about, because the last time that we even saw
Speaker 1: Top Flight wrestling here on Dynamite was back in May,
Speaker 1: and even worse, Scorpio Sky. Do you know the last
Speaker 1: time that Scorpio Sky wrestled on this program. You would
Speaker 1: have to go all the way back to July sixth
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty two when he lost the TNT Championship
Speaker 1: to Wardlow. Now you want to talk about feeling like
Speaker 1: a lifetime ago, that's a lifetime ago. But here they
Speaker 1: are just like that. They're back on Dynamite. They're gonna
Speaker 1: take on the Young Bucks and the Kallis family here.
Speaker 1: So the Bucks were setting up for a double team
Speaker 1: move on Scorpio. When Alexander tagged himself into the match,
Speaker 1: Bucks were not pleased about this. Darius Martin tagged then
Speaker 1: he hit a standing Spanish fly in a DDT on Alexander,
Speaker 1: which led to a near fall. The Bucks started a
Speaker 1: super kick party. They set up Dante for a BTE trigger,
Speaker 1: but he pulled the Bucks arms to make them collide
Speaker 1: into one another. The Bucks came back with a meltzer
Speaker 1: driver on Dante. Alexander then shoved the Bucks out of
Speaker 1: the way so that he could apply an ankle lock
Speaker 1: and he got the submission win for his team. Now,
Speaker 1: after the match was over, Don Callus gets into the
Speaker 1: ring and also here comes Hetcha Sero, Here comes Mark Davis,
Speaker 1: Here comes Rocky Romero said, now you guys can announce
Speaker 1: you were going to join the Don Callis family. The
Speaker 1: Bucks were reluctant. Callous reminded them that you know, the
Speaker 1: money's been flowing now that Callous has been looking out
Speaker 1: for them in recent weeks, and he demanded that they
Speaker 1: announced that they were joining the Kallus family. So he
Speaker 1: started getting agitated. He said, you know AW can be
Speaker 1: a very dangerous Oh, yes, I know, AW can be
Speaker 1: a very dangerous place. I watched the show last week,
Speaker 1: a little too dangerous, but he said, aw can be
Speaker 1: a very dangerous place. And the Bucks walking around without
Speaker 1: a family, now, that could result in something bad happening.
Speaker 1: Callous would hate to see what happened to Kenny Omega
Speaker 1: happened to the Bucks. So what they were going to
Speaker 1: do though, as far as the Bucks will never know
Speaker 1: as far as their decision here because they were interrupted
Speaker 1: by Kenny Omega's music and Omega made his way out.
Speaker 1: He had a chair in hand, he took out Rocky
Speaker 1: Romero and Mark Davis with it in the aisle before
Speaker 1: getting in the ring, and he tackled Josh Alexander. The
Speaker 1: Bucks pulled Omega off, and you know, he shoved them,
Speaker 1: and that little distraction was enough for Alexander to pick
Speaker 1: the ankle to get the ankle lock. Callus ordered Alexander
Speaker 1: to let him go, said, you know what, the Bucks
Speaker 1: don't have to announce if they're going to join the family.
Speaker 1: All they need to do is take Kenny Omega and
Speaker 1: deliver a bte trigger to him right here in the
Speaker 1: middle of the ring. Right now. The Bucks slowly looked
Speaker 1: like they were about to do it. When outcome Jack
Speaker 1: Perry and Lucasaurus and they cleared ring. Jack Perry had
Speaker 1: a shovel. Lucasaurus and I shit you not, he had
Speaker 1: a vacuum cleaner, which was just a ridiculous visual. I
Speaker 1: suppose he just grabbed the first thing he saw. Now,
Speaker 1: why there was a vacuum cleaner sitting there, I have
Speaker 1: no idea, But he had a vacuum cleaner with him
Speaker 1: and Jack Perry, by the way, with that shovel and
Speaker 1: the vest and whatever he was wearing, he looked like
Speaker 1: a fucking park ranger. So outside the ring with the
Speaker 1: rest of the family, as they bailed, or they were
Speaker 1: in the middle of bailing, you could see the young Bucks.
Speaker 1: They look very conflicted over this whole situation. So they
Speaker 1: were really leaning very heavily into making you believe that
Speaker 1: we are going to get a reunion of the elite.
Speaker 1: And it makes me change my opinion of what I
Speaker 1: thought we were going to get on Saturday, because I
Speaker 1: do think all signs point to well Megain the Bucks
Speaker 1: getting back together. Now, I can't discount the possibility they're
Speaker 1: setting up some big swerve, you know it, full gear.
Speaker 1: But it looks like because I mean, if you think
Speaker 1: about it, they've been doing the buck like the broke
Speaker 1: Bucks stuff for a while where they're out of money
Speaker 1: and it was very entertaining for a while. That could
Speaker 1: only go on for so long. It's a million dollar match, Like,
Speaker 1: as ridiculous as that sounds, and it really the money
Speaker 1: stuff at this point is just comically stupid. But it's
Speaker 1: a million dollars on the line in this match. And
Speaker 1: let's say the Heels win and the Bucks right, they
Speaker 1: get back out of the Red and into the Green
Speaker 1: or the black, whatever it is, and so now they
Speaker 1: have money again to spend, Like when does this end?
Speaker 1: Do they just go and spend it again? And you
Speaker 1: get a lot of the same vignettes we had, you know,
Speaker 1: over the last few months, like what's the endgame for this?
Speaker 1: If not them turning back Babyface and kind of rejoining
Speaker 1: the elite and getting the band back together. I don't
Speaker 1: know if Hangman might end up getting involved, that would
Speaker 1: feel like probably the endgame of this. They've been Heels
Speaker 1: now for a while, so I think that's where we're headed.
Speaker 1: I think that's probably the likely outcome of what we
Speaker 1: are going to see at full gear or at least
Speaker 1: the next step that will ultimately lead to that. After this,
Speaker 1: they cut to the announced desk and they had Tony
Speaker 1: Shavanni talk about the passing this past week of legendary
Speaker 1: announcer Bob Caudle, who he worked with many many years ago.
Speaker 1: I think he and Bob Caudle first worked together back
Speaker 1: in the mid eighties, he said, and just passed away
Speaker 1: at the age of ninety five. Shavanni says he was
Speaker 1: the voice of his childhood and if there was a
Speaker 1: wrestling Hall of Fame for announcers, said Bob would be
Speaker 1: the first name inducted, and they put the rest in
Speaker 1: Peace graphic up on the screen that took us into
Speaker 1: a commercial break. Good on them for acknowledging Caddle here
Speaker 1: on the show WWE. He didn't say a word about
Speaker 1: him on Monday Night, so it was nice to see
Speaker 1: aw acknowledge him here. Now. With Bobby Lashley having secured
Speaker 1: the number one spot in the Casino Gauntlet this weekend,
Speaker 1: his Hurt Syndicate partner Shelton Benjamin had a match on
Speaker 1: this show to decide the number two spot in the Gauntlet,
Speaker 1: and his opponent here was Speedball Mike Bailey, This was
Speaker 1: a good one with these two up until the finish.
Speaker 1: MVP sat in on commentary and at one point in
Speaker 1: the middle of the match, he stood up and he
Speaker 1: was very frustrated with Benjamin kind of taking his time
Speaker 1: and kind of toying with Bailey. So he stood up
Speaker 1: and he started yelling at Shelton, telling him stop playing
Speaker 1: with your food and end this. Bailey hit a standing
Speaker 1: shooting star press. MVP yelled that you don't win matches
Speaker 1: by flying through the air. Benjamin got an armbar apply,
Speaker 1: but Benjamin powered him up for a slam. Or I
Speaker 1: should say Bailey got the arm bar, Benjamin powered him up. Bailey, though,
Speaker 1: held on and both men ended up tumbling out over
Speaker 1: the top rope together out to the floor. Back in
Speaker 1: the ring, Bailey applied another arm bar that Benjamin escaped.
Speaker 1: When they stood up, Benjamin superkicked Bailey, and what a superkick.
Speaker 1: This was holy shit, the sound that this thing made
Speaker 1: and the reaction from the crowd, like that should have
Speaker 1: been and maybe was supposed to be the finish of
Speaker 1: this match, because, I mean, the superkick is just such
Speaker 1: an abused move. We see multiple ones in every match right,
Speaker 1: especially on this show. We just had the young Bucks
Speaker 1: out there, and so whether it's the Young Bucks of
Speaker 1: the USO's like, there's a lot of different people that
Speaker 1: have incorporated superkicks into their act. But this superkick, this resonated.
Speaker 1: This was like a gunshot going off and he covers
Speaker 1: speedball and there's no doubt that his shoulders were down.
Speaker 1: Just the camera that we had, it was very visible
Speaker 1: his shoulders and Bailey's shoulders were flat on the mat.
Speaker 1: He didn't lift them up. He didn't accidentally get them
Speaker 1: up or attempt to lift them up. Paul Turner, though,
Speaker 1: counts one, he counts two, and then he holds up
Speaker 1: and he's sticking his hand under the shoulder as if
Speaker 1: to like, oh, the shoulder was up. I'm like, no, no,
Speaker 1: it wasn't, motherfucker. I'm watching the show. I have a
Speaker 1: great view. The shoulder was not up. So something went
Speaker 1: wrong here. I don't know if Bailey just forgot to
Speaker 1: get his shoulder up if he was supposed to. I
Speaker 1: don't know if he legitimately got his bell rung and
Speaker 1: for a few seconds didn't know where he was. It
Speaker 1: could have been as simple as the referee fucked up.
Speaker 1: You know, when Paul Turner held up when he wasn't
Speaker 1: supposed to. MVP jumped off commentary and got into the
Speaker 1: ring thinking the match was over, and Paul Turner was like, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: it's just the two and MVP, you know, got right
Speaker 1: back out of the ring. So Benjamin got up, he
Speaker 1: hit a German suplex, he hit the running step up
Speaker 1: knee in the corner, and then he hit one more
Speaker 1: superkick and then he won the match. So there's not
Speaker 1: a dat in my mind that was supposed to be
Speaker 1: the finish. I mean, they just basically they added a
Speaker 1: couple of moves and did another superkick, you know, to
Speaker 1: make up for the botch. So it's unfortunate that that
Speaker 1: happened because the two of them were having a pretty
Speaker 1: good match outside of that little botch there at the end.
Speaker 1: I thought it was a fun match, probably my favorite
Speaker 1: one on the show. I think the announcers also did
Speaker 1: not make a big enough deal about the fact that
Speaker 1: Lashly and Benjamin are now starting this Gauntlet on Saturday.
Speaker 1: So the question is now, are they going to go
Speaker 1: at it? Are they going to just stand around and
Speaker 1: wait for Number three to come out and just work together,
Speaker 1: or are they going to pull an axe and smash
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the Royal Rumble in eighty nine
Speaker 1: and be like, all right, bro, it's every man for
Speaker 1: himself and just beat the holy hell out of each other.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I just feel like the announcers didn't
Speaker 1: really dwell on that as much as they should have.
Speaker 1: Of we had John Moxley and Claudio Castignoli against Orange
Speaker 1: Cassidy and Roderick Strong. Strong set up Claudio for a supplex.
Speaker 1: Moxley clipped the back of Strong's leg. Cassidy checked in
Speaker 1: and he sent Claudio to the floor. Cassidy went for
Speaker 1: a dive. Claudio, though, caught him. I pressed him over
Speaker 1: his head and he walked him over towards the barricade,
Speaker 1: and he just dropped him down face first, right on
Speaker 1: the top part of the barricade. After a break, Claudio
Speaker 1: got a giant swing on Cassidy, but he let him
Speaker 1: go after only two revolutions, which got booze from the crowd.
Speaker 1: Brian Danielson on commentary wondered if maybe Claudio's back was
Speaker 1: bothering him after blooding guts. Brian, evidently nothing was bothering
Speaker 1: anybody after blooding guts. Everybody looked aoka. Guess not everybody
Speaker 1: was tip top till a little while later. Daniel Garcia
Speaker 1: caused a distraction that allowed Moxley to hit Roddy with
Speaker 1: a paradigm shift. Moxley had the pin, Cassidy broke it up.
Speaker 1: Moxley got crouched on the top turn buckle, strong superplexed
Speaker 1: him and then tagged out. Garcia caused another distraction. Cassidy, though,
Speaker 1: fought off Moxley and hit him with an orange punch.
Speaker 1: Wheeler Dah then hopped the barricade and Cassidy spotted him
Speaker 1: and chased him around then back into the ring. While
Speaker 1: the referee was busy getting da out of the ring,
Speaker 1: Claudio hit Cassidy with a pop up uppercut. Moxley then
Speaker 1: took advantage. He applied the bulldog choke and the referee
Speaker 1: almost immediately called for the bell like it was very
Speaker 1: very fast. There was no struggle. There was, and the story,
Speaker 1: I guess is that Claudio knocked him out, you know,
Speaker 1: or knocked him silly on the uppercut, and then Moxley
Speaker 1: just sort of picked the bones, took advantage and got
Speaker 1: the quick win. And when the match was over, the
Speaker 1: beatdown continued on Cassidy until Kyle O'Reilly ran down to
Speaker 1: the ring quickly got an ankle lock on Moxley, who
Speaker 1: frantically tapped out. You'd have put the boots to Kyle,
Speaker 1: but he would not break the hold. He kept holding
Speaker 1: onto it, and the referees couldn't get him off. They were,
Speaker 1: you know, plating with him to let go of a
Speaker 1: hold as strong and Orange Cassidy were holding off Daniel
Speaker 1: Garcia and Uda and Claudio, so finally they managed to
Speaker 1: pull Moxley out of the ring to safety. Kyle took
Speaker 1: the microphone and he said, because Moxley gave him a
Speaker 1: taste for blood last week, he demanded a no holds
Speaker 1: barred match at full gear, and just like in Blood
Speaker 1: and Guts, he said, the history books will say that
Speaker 1: Moxley tapped out. Kyle came out here man, and even
Speaker 1: in this promo he was acting like a just a
Speaker 1: raving lunatic. He looked like a maniac out there. Let
Speaker 1: me just point out something to you. Now, we had
Speaker 1: two blood and Guts matches last week right where they
Speaker 1: gave you as much blood and violence as they could
Speaker 1: possibly muster. Right with the man with the women, and
Speaker 1: in between that we had a Hangman Page Powerhouse Hobbs,
Speaker 1: false count Anywhere match with more craziness. That was the
Speaker 1: entire show last week was just insanity. And on the
Speaker 1: show last week they announced that the main event of
Speaker 1: Full Gear is going to be a steel cage match,
Speaker 1: coming off a show where we had two two blood
Speaker 1: and guts matches in the cage last week, so that
Speaker 1: was silly enough to follow up on that with another
Speaker 1: regular cage match. We also already had schedule on this
Speaker 1: pay per view in a few days Kyle Fletcher and
Speaker 1: Mark Briscoe for the TNT title in a no disqualification match.
Speaker 1: So now we have added Kyle O'Reilly the other Kyle
Speaker 1: against John Moxley in a no hold BARD match, which
Speaker 1: is the same fucking thing. We already have a no
Speaker 1: DQ match on the I forget the cage. We have
Speaker 1: a no DQ match on that show. Why do we
Speaker 1: need a no holds Bard match? Why on the same show.
Speaker 1: I don't understand. I understand doing Kyle and Moxley because
Speaker 1: they've had, you know, a little feud going on here
Speaker 1: for about a month now, had a couple of matches together.
Speaker 1: Kyle got the big submission win in Blood and Guts
Speaker 1: last week, So now they're gonna go at it one
Speaker 1: more time. That's fine, but I'm like, we already have
Speaker 1: a no DQ match for the TNT Championship on this show.
Speaker 1: No DQ and no holds bard is the same thing.
Speaker 1: It's redundant, it's not needed. But here's the other thing
Speaker 1: about John Moxley. We saw him surrender in Blood and Guts, right,
Speaker 1: he lost it for the Death Riders last week. So
Speaker 1: the first thing that he does on Saturday on Collision,
Speaker 1: the opening match is the Death Riders, and he's on
Speaker 1: commentary and he's brushing off the loss. I just want
Speaker 1: to preach positivity. And all the members of the Death Riders,
Speaker 1: they seem to have no issue with John Moxley. They're
Speaker 1: not even giving him the side eye. Like I said,
Speaker 1: when we watched the show tonight, and no one was
Speaker 1: showing any real signs of where a tear except Chris
Speaker 1: stat Lander on her back from the bed of nails
Speaker 1: that she landed in. It's as if it never happened.
Speaker 1: Moxley lost last week and it's just onto the next
Speaker 1: it's like nothing even happened. So now we know Moxley
Speaker 1: is going to be wrestling Kyle o'reiley on the pay
Speaker 1: per view, and Kyle o'reiley should win that match, plain
Speaker 1: and simple. Kyle o'reiley got a major win, the biggest
Speaker 1: win of his career in this company, at the end
Speaker 1: of Blood and Guts last week. To do what to
Speaker 1: send him to full gear to just lose to Moxley
Speaker 1: and give us some fifty to fifty bullshit? You really
Speaker 1: want to take advantage of a win and give Kyle
Speaker 1: that much more credibility. And I'm not sure this is
Speaker 1: really about building up Kyle O'Reilly to be a credible
Speaker 1: challenger for any particular title. This likely has more to
Speaker 1: do with Moxley and the Death Riders and wherever this
Speaker 1: is going than anything to really help Kyle. But why
Speaker 1: not That was a major win last week? Why not
Speaker 1: follow up on that with another win right and really
Speaker 1: send a message like last week was no Fluke. Plus,
Speaker 1: it just feeds that much better into the Death Rider's
Speaker 1: story where Moxley would lose again. That's why I'm changing
Speaker 1: my prediction for the Pack match. Pack has a match
Speaker 1: on that show against Darby Allen. I had Darby winning
Speaker 1: in light of this match being added to the card.
Speaker 1: I think it would make more sense to have Moxley
Speaker 1: submit again and then have Pack win his match against
Speaker 1: Darby to show that the other members of the Death Riders,
Speaker 1: they're picking up the slack here right, They're doing what
Speaker 1: they're supposed to do. Moxley has become the weak link.
Speaker 1: Moxley's the one who keeps losing. Moxley loses, Pack wins
Speaker 1: to me, in my mind for the story that hopefully
Speaker 1: they're telling, that would make more sense. Maybe they're not
Speaker 1: telling that story and Moxley just goes back to his
Speaker 1: winning ways, in which case I'm not fucking sure what
Speaker 1: we're doing here. So that's been added to the show.
Speaker 1: In the first of two women's tag team matches still
Speaker 1: in the opening round, by the way, we had Tony
Speaker 1: Storm and Mina Shirakawa against Alex Windsor and ReHO. We
Speaker 1: got new music and matching gear like they have their
Speaker 1: own custom entrance now to Tony and Mina. So if
Speaker 1: you were doubting who's w the championships here in this tournament,
Speaker 1: I mean that, come on, that's gotta be a sign.
Speaker 1: They're the only ones I think in this tournament that
Speaker 1: really got their own custom tag team entrance, so ReHO
Speaker 1: tagged in. After a little bit, she was used as
Speaker 1: a projectile as an assisted her Conranas sent Tony to
Speaker 1: the corner. Riho tried a head scissors on her but
Speaker 1: got flattened, allowing Mina to tag in and hit a
Speaker 1: twisting tornillo. For two. It was a blind tag from Windsor,
Speaker 1: who hit a stun gun on Mina. As Tony tried
Speaker 1: to make the save but took a double souplex for
Speaker 1: her troubles. ReHO scaled the ropes, took out the love
Speaker 1: bombs that's what they call themselves, took them out with
Speaker 1: a crossbody on the floor. Later on, Windsor dropped Storm
Speaker 1: outside with a cannon ball off the apron. ReHO missed
Speaker 1: a double stomp back inside, allowing Mina to hit a
Speaker 1: spinning backfist and then she sank in the figure four
Speaker 1: leg lock. Storm and Windsor they took turns turning a
Speaker 1: submission into returning the submission, hold in their partner's favor
Speaker 1: until firing off dueling head butts, and they collapsed on
Speaker 1: top of Mina and Rehobe, breaking the submission. Storm and
Speaker 1: Windsor they tagged back in legally, Windsor hit Lariot attempted
Speaker 1: a sharpshooter Storm, though escaped. Tony and Mina followed with
Speaker 1: stereo sweet cheek music. Says Tony spiked Alex with Storm
Speaker 1: zero for the win to advance to the next round
Speaker 1: of the tournament. I just I couldn't get into this.
Speaker 1: I'm not even saying it was a bad match. I
Speaker 1: just I couldn't get into this. Technically it was fine,
Speaker 1: but again it's a foregone conclusion who was going over here,
Speaker 1: just based on what they did at the end of
Speaker 1: Blood and Guts last week. All Right, we already knew
Speaker 1: before the bell rang, we knew who was moving on
Speaker 1: to the next round. After the match, they threw it
Speaker 1: to Renee, or I should say the voice of Renee.
Speaker 1: We didn't actually see her, but we heard her voice
Speaker 1: and she had some breaking news. She said, the four
Speaker 1: team that are in the tournament that have advanced to
Speaker 1: the semi final round, we'll all compete in a four
Speaker 1: corners match this Saturday at full gear, and the winning
Speaker 1: team will get to choose the stipulation for their respective
Speaker 1: semi final tournament match whenever that takes place. They didn't
Speaker 1: say when that would be. I'm sure on television next week.
Speaker 1: So basically, they're just gonna have a four way on
Speaker 1: the pay per view to get these women on the show,
Speaker 1: and whichever team wins they get to pick a stipulation
Speaker 1: for their next match in the next round. We get
Speaker 1: enough stipulations in this company, even on this show on Saturday.
Speaker 1: I don't like having stipulations in this tournament. It's completely unnecessary.
Speaker 1: We don't need stipulations in the actual tournament. You want
Speaker 1: to have a four way match just for the hell
Speaker 1: of it and just getting them on the show. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's fine. Maybe there's some other advantage you know that
Speaker 1: you can provide the winning team. I don't know, but
Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of eating stipulations to this tournament.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's gone stipulation crazy here. It's not needed.
Speaker 1: Alicia Attut was backstage with Kyle Fletcher, Don Kallis, and
Speaker 1: Mark Briscoe, and the two men have agreed to no
Speaker 1: physicality here in this segment, and they were asked why
Speaker 1: such high stakes for their pay per view match. Yes,
Speaker 1: that was the question. Fletcher said that this way there's
Speaker 1: a clear winner and a clear loser, no excuses. Briscoe
Speaker 1: will thank them for joining the family, because again the
Speaker 1: stipulation is that if Mark Briscoe loses this match, he
Speaker 1: must join the don Kallis family because we don't have
Speaker 1: enough members. I don't know how they can feel the team.
Speaker 1: They don't have enough. They need more. Mark Briscow will join.
Speaker 1: We have the young Bucks. They're teasing that they might
Speaker 1: join the don Kallis family. I don't want to say anything.
Speaker 1: I don't want to make any pronouncements here, but I
Speaker 1: might join the don Kallis family. We got to get
Speaker 1: some more guys. So the stakes have been set for
Speaker 1: their TNT title match on Saturday. Brisco said, don't talk
Speaker 1: to me about family. Every time I step inside that ring,
Speaker 1: I fight for my family, which is true. I mean,
Speaker 1: the guy's got like twelve kids. Actually I think it's nine,
Speaker 1: But he says he fights for his family and his
Speaker 1: road family, the conglomeration who he won blooding guts with
Speaker 1: last week. Failure is not an option. Brisco won't be
Speaker 1: letting his family down. He'll be making them proud. And
Speaker 1: so all of a sudden, Kazuchka Okada and Hetchesera they
Speaker 1: attacked Briscoe from behind. They held him as Don Callis
Speaker 1: walked into the shot and he said he's going to
Speaker 1: make Brisco's kids orphans, and Fletcher thanked Okada for not
Speaker 1: agreeing to no physicality. Fletcher agreed, I never said anything
Speaker 1: about Okada though, and Okada said he's glad he could help,
Speaker 1: whereas Takeshka couldn't. He's such a petty bitch. I love it.
Speaker 1: We got a Pack video promo on Darby, Allen saying
Speaker 1: Darby deserved an apology as he promised that he would
Speaker 1: break Darby's neck, and instead he sends his charred corpse
Speaker 1: to the hospital. No one has heard from Darby's since
Speaker 1: Blood and Guts, and it's because he's scared. Maybe Pack
Speaker 1: took things too far. But if Darby, the boy who
Speaker 1: never quits, has a backbone, he'll face him in a
Speaker 1: wrestling match at full gear. No weapons, no funny games,
Speaker 1: no bells or whistles. Without those, there's no way someone
Speaker 1: like Darby can compete with a legitimate athlete like him.
Speaker 1: And I know, I said before, I'm changing my prediction.
Speaker 1: It still feels like, you know, it's probably gonna be
Speaker 1: a Darby win, But I just feel like it works
Speaker 1: better for the story of Pack wins and Moxley loses.
Speaker 1: Now watch them do the opposite. They closed the Dynamite
Speaker 1: portion of Tonight's Three Hours with Hangman Adam Page against
Speaker 1: Katsiori Shabata with Samoa Joe at ringside on commentary. If
Speaker 1: Joe gets involved in this match, he will forfeit his
Speaker 1: championship match of full Gear. Joe came over to the
Speaker 1: announced desk to put his headset on and he told
Speaker 1: Tony Shavanni where he called him the slippery little Piggy
Speaker 1: told him you stay right there. Then he politely said
Speaker 1: hello to ex Caliber and his old friend, Hey Brian
Speaker 1: Brian Danielson, who asked, are you gonna hurt my friend Tony,
Speaker 1: and Joe said no, I'm not out here for violence.
Speaker 1: Hangman rushed Shabata from the crowd. Shabata was coming out
Speaker 1: and Hangman came out of the crowd and just jumped him,
Speaker 1: and Joe was incensed. Page launched Shabbata over the timekeeper's
Speaker 1: table next to Joe, and then he slammed Shabbata's head
Speaker 1: on the announced desk. Hangman turned his attention to Joe
Speaker 1: just long enough for Shabata to hit a running boot
Speaker 1: on the Apron slammed Hangman against the barricade repeatedly before
Speaker 1: were setting him up on a chair. Page exploded out
Speaker 1: and dropped Shabata. As Joe is now at this point
Speaker 1: losing his mind on commentary. Back inside the ring, Shabbata
Speaker 1: targeted the taped up neck. I think he had some
Speaker 1: of that Knisio tape did Hangman on his neck? Danielson
Speaker 1: asked Joe if he's amped up here tonight due to
Speaker 1: losing the Hangman last month. Joe said, no, it's due
Speaker 1: to stupid questions that I'm being asked. Actually, I'll bet
Speaker 1: that Joe is amped up for a very different reason.
Speaker 1: I think Joe is amped up because Twisted Metal was
Speaker 1: just renewed for a third season on Peacock. I'll bet
Speaker 1: that has him pretty amped up. Later on, Shabbata countered
Speaker 1: out of a dead eye and then hit Shattered Dreams
Speaker 1: in the corner page rolled through a German. Shabbata sent
Speaker 1: him into Paul Turner, giving Shabata a chance to hit
Speaker 1: a low blow, and he sank in a cross arm breaker.
Speaker 1: Joe said the low blow was a legal grappling move.
Speaker 1: Shabata went to the ankle logue, but Page rolled through,
Speaker 1: which left Shabbata holding Page's boot. The wrestle many a
Speaker 1: twenty finish where Kurt Angle pulled off Eddie Guerrero's boot.
Speaker 1: So now he's got Hangman's cowboy boot in his hand,
Speaker 1: and Page fired off a lariat. The boot went flying
Speaker 1: straight up into the air. Hangman looks up, he catches
Speaker 1: the boot on the way down, and he puts the
Speaker 1: boot back on his foot, goes out to the apron
Speaker 1: and vaults himself back in with a buckshot lariat, and
Speaker 1: he gets the win over Shebata. So the story here
Speaker 1: is that he took out Powerhouse Hobbs last week because
Speaker 1: Hobbs was not on the show this week he was
Speaker 1: in the hospital. So he took out Hobbs last week.
Speaker 1: Tonight it was Shebata, and now Saturday he gets Joe
Speaker 1: all alone inside the cage where we know nobody can
Speaker 1: ever get in or out of these cages. I think
Speaker 1: Tony Shavani made some dumb shit comment during the match
Speaker 1: here to that effect where it was like, oh, Joe's
Speaker 1: going to be trapped in the cage, but nowhere to go.
Speaker 1: He had the audacity to say this after people were
Speaker 1: just freely entering and exiting the cage at will last
Speaker 1: week during Blood and Guts. He had the audacity to
Speaker 1: make a comment like that. So that's the story going
Speaker 1: into this main event. And I thought Joe was great
Speaker 1: on commentary here, just there's no one who sells intensity
Speaker 1: better than Samoa Joe. His facial expressions is just the
Speaker 1: raging on commentary, knowing that he just had to control
Speaker 1: himself because if he lifted a finger to get involved
Speaker 1: in this match, he was going to lose his championship
Speaker 1: match on Saturday. So he was great. And the best
Speaker 1: part of this that in the finish, I liked the
Speaker 1: boot flying up into the air and Hangman catching it.
Speaker 1: That was a nice touch. So Dynamite Fish ended and
Speaker 1: Collision begins as Page hits a low blow receipt on
Speaker 1: Shebata before staring down Joe, and he cuts a promo
Speaker 1: on Samojo tells Samojo look around, although Joe might be
Speaker 1: surrounded by thousands of crazy ass fans, so actually we're
Speaker 1: not that crazy. They were actually uh kind of dead
Speaker 1: for large swaths of the show here, especially in the
Speaker 1: third hour. Although I can't blame them. It's kind of
Speaker 1: a dead zone tonight. But he might be surrounded by
Speaker 1: thousands of crazy ass fans, but he's now alone. Said,
Speaker 1: when Joe walks into the steel cage of full Gear,
Speaker 1: Page wants him to remember that Joe doesn't have Hobbs
Speaker 1: and he doesn't have Shabata with him. Says that he
Speaker 1: wants Joe to remember what Hangman did the last time
Speaker 1: he was locked in a cage with another man, which
Speaker 1: of course was swore of Strickland last year. At all
Speaker 1: out it would have been nice after the fact for
Speaker 1: the announcers to mention that, I guess they just assumed
Speaker 1: that they have their audience and they have no new fans,
Speaker 1: which may well be true. You know, if Tony Kahan
Speaker 1: does one thing very well, he certainly focuses on his
Speaker 1: diehards and his niche audience. But it would have been
Speaker 1: nice for the announcers to say something about who he
Speaker 1: was actually referring to or what match he was referring to, Like,
Speaker 1: we know because we saw that match and I saw
Speaker 1: someone stick a needle in another man's cheek, which I
Speaker 1: did not need to see. So anyway, that was the
Speaker 1: message that he sent to Simo Joe there. Hangman swears
Speaker 1: he would have no problem doing it again. Something about
Speaker 1: what they did here is this is very weird to me.
Speaker 1: So we already saw Hangman beat Joe clean right in
Speaker 1: their first match of Wrestledream Hangman won. Now we're heading
Speaker 1: into the rematch and Hobbes has been taken out. Shebata
Speaker 1: has been He didn't really injure him, but I mean
Speaker 1: Shebada now has been neutralized, and the story is that
Speaker 1: Joe is going into this match all alone. He's going
Speaker 1: into this match the challenger is as the underdog after
Speaker 1: having already lost the first match. So under any other circumstances,
Speaker 1: you would think that they're setting up for Joe to
Speaker 1: win the championship. But I cannot imagine that Joe was
Speaker 1: winning the championship on Saturday. So it's like they've done
Speaker 1: all of these things to put Joe at a severe
Speaker 1: disadvantage only for him to go in there and very
Speaker 1: likely lose. It's strange. It's just very weird. The collision
Speaker 1: portion of the night open with Anna Jay and ty
Speaker 1: Mellow against Meghan Bain and Marina Shaffir. This was I
Speaker 1: believe the final opening round match here in the Women's
Speaker 1: tag team title tournament. This was This did not have
Speaker 1: the most scintillating start, pretty dull stuff. Anna got worked
Speaker 1: over the entire commercial break. Things come back. Mellow makes
Speaker 1: the tag that lasted all of twenty seconds before she
Speaker 1: tagged Anna back into the match. Bain and Shaffir. They
Speaker 1: got spiked with double ddts. Double guillotines were applied Baine
Speaker 1: and Shaffir. They easily powered out. Shaffir was sent outside.
Speaker 1: Megan got flattened with a flat liner and a rolling
Speaker 1: neck breaker. Bain fought off a gory bomb, but Jane
Speaker 1: managed the Queens Slayer. Only Megan fell back into her
Speaker 1: own corner, so Marina was able to make the tag.
Speaker 1: She got a quick takedown into her mother's milk finish.
Speaker 1: What a name, by the way, what a name for
Speaker 1: a finish? Mother's milk hm? Anyway, that got her the win.
Speaker 1: So Megan Bain and Marina Shaffir are moving on to
Speaker 1: the next round. Love the Lord says, MJF comes back
Speaker 1: and cost Hangman the title. Oh, MJF I believe is
Speaker 1: going to be back on Saturday. I just don't see
Speaker 1: him factoring into the match where he costs Hangman the belt.
Speaker 1: But that is an interesting theory if everybody is thinking
Speaker 1: along the same lines that there's no way Joe's gonna
Speaker 1: win the title, and then he wins the championship. The
Speaker 1: problem with that is that he's losing the championship to
Speaker 1: do what exactly, to just drop it back to Hangman
Speaker 1: before World's End. World's End has got to be Hangman
Speaker 1: a MJF. I just cannot imagine that it's not Hangman MJF.
Speaker 1: At World's End. Did they turn it into a triple threat?
Speaker 1: It would be interesting because it was at World's End
Speaker 1: when MJF lost that title two years ago and he
Speaker 1: lost it to Samoa Joe. So now Joe is back
Speaker 1: in the mix here. But to do Joe and MJF
Speaker 1: makes no sense if you leave Hangman out of it. So,
Speaker 1: I mean, what do you what are you looking at there?
Speaker 1: We're looking at a triple threat. I'm not saying it's impossible.
Speaker 1: I can see it. I can see the ultimate degradation
Speaker 1: here of being MJF, you know, costing Hangman his championship
Speaker 1: and laughing at his face. I don't know. I mean,
Speaker 1: maybe there's something to it again, just the way that
Speaker 1: everything has been set up here, it should point to
Speaker 1: a Samoa Joe win. I just I'm having trouble seeing,
Speaker 1: you know, let's maybe they're not doing the MJF match
Speaker 1: of World's End. Maybe they're gonna do one more match
Speaker 1: after this with Hangman and Joe and they're just going
Speaker 1: to bounce the belt back. You could do that. You
Speaker 1: could do that as I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I would just think, yeah, you would want MJF on
Speaker 1: that show. I also don't know his movie schedule. You know,
Speaker 1: he's been out filming a movie, so I'm just sort
Speaker 1: of assuming that he'll be back in time to you know,
Speaker 1: build to the last show of the year. Maybe he
Speaker 1: won't be around for a few more weeks. I don't know.
Speaker 1: They've been very quiet about MJF, and Tony really hasn't
Speaker 1: had much to say about him. It's very strange. Anyway,
Speaker 1: the second half of this was a little bit better
Speaker 1: than the first half, but you know, again, after that
Speaker 1: finish of blood and guts, you knew exactly who was
Speaker 1: winning this match. I mean, there was no question about it.
Speaker 1: Crowd didn't really care much about this either. I think
Speaker 1: that was part of it. I also think there was
Speaker 1: the three hour fatigue setting in here. After the match,
Speaker 1: the Timeless Love bombs Tony storm Mina Shirakawa. They appeared
Speaker 1: up on the screen. Tony said that they pitched their
Speaker 1: show to God and he ordered the entire box set
Speaker 1: this weekend. They won't stop until they wear Baine and
Speaker 1: Shafir's skulls as a pearl necklace. If they win the match,
Speaker 1: they could pick any stipulation like apartment wrestling or Mina
Speaker 1: suggest a taipaid death match, which Tony liked the sound
Speaker 1: of that. I'm sure both Tonys did so. Tony says
Speaker 1: that once John Moxley sees what they do to his
Speaker 1: little women, he'll piss himself with blood. We have Kazuchka
Speaker 1: Okada against Mascara Dorata. This was a double Jeopardy match.
Speaker 1: You might be thinking, what the hell is that. Well,
Speaker 1: the Kallis family will get to uh, well, we'll get
Speaker 1: a future shot at the CMLL trios titles. Why I
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't I don't know. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but they will get a future shot at the CMLL
Speaker 1: trios titles. My god, that's if Okada wins. If Dorata wins,
Speaker 1: he will get a future shot at the Unified Championship. Sure,
Speaker 1: these two and Takashta, I will point out three of
Speaker 1: them had as I recall the match of the night
Speaker 1: back it all out. They had an incredible three way match,
Speaker 1: lit the whole crowd up. It was just one of
Speaker 1: the best matches all year. So I was at least
Speaker 1: interested in seeing what these two would do. Obviously, the
Speaker 1: environment was not nearly the same. There weren't as many
Speaker 1: people in the building. They were very quiet for you know,
Speaker 1: a lot of what they were seeing here in this
Speaker 1: third hour. What they had though was a solid match,
Speaker 1: But more than once here these two just were not
Speaker 1: on the same page. And there were actually two different times,
Speaker 1: off the top of my head that I could remember,
Speaker 1: two different times where Derata looked like he nearly killed himself.
Speaker 1: He crashed and burned very badly on a four to
Speaker 1: fifty splash attempt. You know, normally when somebody goes for
Speaker 1: a four to fifty these days, guy moves out of
Speaker 1: the way. They just rolled through. He did not roll through.
Speaker 1: He splatted on the mat and landed in such a
Speaker 1: way where I was a little concerned maybe he actually
Speaker 1: legitimately hurt himself that he was kind of holding his
Speaker 1: arm after that to the side, but then he kept
Speaker 1: going and doing spots, so you know, he seemed okay.
Speaker 1: But that gave Okada a chance to hit the air
Speaker 1: raid crash neck breaker across the knee top rope elbow
Speaker 1: by Okada then led to a rain Maker middle finger pose.
Speaker 1: Dorata fought him off, only to run into a beautiful
Speaker 1: Okada dropkick. Dorada flipped out of a rain Maker into
Speaker 1: a wonky looking roll up only got two. Dorada did
Speaker 1: hit the four to fifty splash, this time for a
Speaker 1: very close near fall. Both men fought up top. Dorada
Speaker 1: then tried a super hurricanrana and Okada tried to turn
Speaker 1: it into a power bomb on the way down, only
Speaker 1: for Dorota to land right on his head or nearly
Speaker 1: on his head, maybe it's more on his shoulder, but
Speaker 1: it was a very scary landing for Derata on the
Speaker 1: way Do you can even see the people in the
Speaker 1: crowd like gasping and holding their mouths like, holy shit,
Speaker 1: is he alive? Ocatta finally put them away with another dropkick,
Speaker 1: flush and then the rain maker, and he got the win.
Speaker 1: This was not bad, but this was not great either.
Speaker 1: So Don Callus is at ringside. He gets on the
Speaker 1: mic as soon as the match is over and he
Speaker 1: said that with that win, they will be cashing in
Speaker 1: their Trios title match, not the aw Trios titles. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: I want I want to clarify here, this is the
Speaker 1: CMLL Trios titles. And when are they going to get
Speaker 1: this match? I give you one guess, Saturday. We don't
Speaker 1: have enough matches. We need one more. We have another
Speaker 1: match now added to the card on Saturday, but it
Speaker 1: will not be on the main card. The match will
Speaker 1: be on the pre show. This is going to be
Speaker 1: on the Tailgate Brawl pre show and it is going
Speaker 1: to be the Unified champion Kazuska Okada teaming with Hetcha
Speaker 1: Sero and the returning IWGP champion Kenoski Takeshta and Okanda.
Speaker 1: They hit the camera on Okada in the ring as
Speaker 1: Callus was making these announcements, and he had a big,
Speaker 1: cheesy smile on his face until Callus mentioned Takeshda and
Speaker 1: then his whole demeanor changed that the expression on his
Speaker 1: face went from happiness to I don't know. He just
Speaker 1: looked incredulous. He's just sadness and disbelief. Just the way
Speaker 1: he sold it with his expression, I thought was great.
Speaker 1: So look, I mean, they're gonna continue the Okada and
Speaker 1: Takeshta stuff in that match, they're probably gonna win. But
Speaker 1: I have no issue with them continuing the angle. I
Speaker 1: just I think we're all I mean, I know the
Speaker 1: Sikos will disagree. I think we're all tapped out. As
Speaker 1: far as the matches on Saturday, I think we're good.
Speaker 1: I think we're good now. But it's also weird having
Speaker 1: Okada on the pre show. So the main card is
Speaker 1: already full. I'm not advocating that you got to move
Speaker 1: it to the main car. It's the CMLL Trios titles
Speaker 1: on an aw show, so it's like whatever, you can
Speaker 1: have that on the pre show. But really, I just
Speaker 1: look at that. I'm sure it'll be a really good match,
Speaker 1: but it's more just to further the Ocata Takeshta angle
Speaker 1: than anything else. They closed finally with the Hometown Girl
Speaker 1: Here in Boston, Mercedes Monette against the returning Red Velvet
Speaker 1: to crown the undisputed Ring of Honor Women's Television Champion.
Speaker 1: I just called the Mercedes match on Saturday that she
Speaker 1: had when she won title number thirteen. She is now
Speaker 1: the APAC Wrestling Women's Champion. That is a Malaysian promotion
Speaker 1: and called her main event match against North Phoenix Diana.
Speaker 1: And so now here she is and we have This
Speaker 1: was not title number fourteen that she was going for.
Speaker 1: This was really just to make it official. She already
Speaker 1: had the interim title. So if she wins here, it's
Speaker 1: not like, oh, she wins number fourteen now she already
Speaker 1: has the title. It just she'll be the undisputed champion now.
Speaker 1: Title number fourteen is what she's going for on Saturday
Speaker 1: at Full Gear. That would be if she beat Chris Statland.
Speaker 1: As far as why this match is happening, Red Velvet's
Speaker 1: been hurt for many months. She hasn't wrestled since June. Again,
Speaker 1: what did we really need an interim ring of honor
Speaker 1: Women's Television Champion. We did not. We did not. It
Speaker 1: would have been fine for Red Velvet. Just take the
Speaker 1: title from her crowned new champion. Let her get the
Speaker 1: first shot at it when she comes back. Tony likes
Speaker 1: doing interim titles. He's done it many times before. He'll
Speaker 1: do it many times in the future, so because of
Speaker 1: that we ended up with this match. So the match
Speaker 1: spilled out to the floor where Monet shoved Velvet into
Speaker 1: Chris Statlander, who was sitting in on commentary, so Statlander
Speaker 1: got knocked over. Back in the ring, Velvet tried to
Speaker 1: do the Eddie Guerrero spot by tossing one of the
Speaker 1: belts to Mercedes and then lying down on the mat wall.
Speaker 1: Referee Aubrey Edwards was tied up with Statlander. Edwards questioned Mercedes,
Speaker 1: but Velvet rolled her up for a quick two count.
Speaker 1: Late in the match, Velvet dodged a corner Meteora and
Speaker 1: she dropped Mercedes on her head with a released German.
Speaker 1: Velvet applied the octopus hold Mercedes, though countered with a
Speaker 1: lung blower. Both women now were fighting up in the
Speaker 1: corner and Velvet hits a wheelbarrow victory roll off the ropes,
Speaker 1: which was a pretty good spot, got a nice reaction,
Speaker 1: did not get a victory for her because the impact
Speaker 1: ended up causing both women to be down, so both
Speaker 1: women got back up on the ropes this time, though
Speaker 1: Mercedes turned it into an avalanche. It was looking like
Speaker 1: an avalanche tombstone, but we've seen MJF do that before
Speaker 1: off the ropes, but instead it was an avalanche lung blower,
Speaker 1: which looked great. And she didn't even really need to
Speaker 1: transition into a statement maker or anything like that. She
Speaker 1: just covered her and she pinned her because that is
Speaker 1: a finish. It looked great. Don't need to win with
Speaker 1: anything else but that, And so with that, Mercedes Monette
Speaker 1: just went from the interim television champion to the official
Speaker 1: Ring of Honor Women's Television Champion. She immediately climbed on
Speaker 1: top of the announced desk, held up both belts, the
Speaker 1: interim belt the official belt, which is weird because it's
Speaker 1: the same championship, but the official belt has a red
Speaker 1: strap and her interim title has a black strap. So
Speaker 1: she's posing and dancing with them on top of the desk.
Speaker 1: Chris Statlander is standing down below looking up at her,
Speaker 1: and Mercedes throws the belts at Statlander and then jumps
Speaker 1: off the desk with a Meteora takes her down to
Speaker 1: the ground, and then she applies the statement maker on
Speaker 1: Chris Statlander and the babyface champion begins tapping out and
Speaker 1: then Mercedes let's go of the hold and she gets
Speaker 1: back up on the desk and she's posing and she's dancing,
Speaker 1: and Statlander just because they're going off the air now,
Speaker 1: Statlander just pops back up, picks up red velvet, and
Speaker 1: carries her to the back like nothing happened. I'm like,
Speaker 1: what a weird way to end the show. I mean,
Speaker 1: I get they were in Boston and so they wanted
Speaker 1: to give Mercedes her little celebration, and she had her
Speaker 1: fans there, but the way they did that the closing
Speaker 1: minute where Statlander is in the hold and taps out
Speaker 1: and then just pops up and picks her up and
Speaker 1: carries her off very very strange. I thought the way
Speaker 1: that they closed the show here, But what it means
Speaker 1: for Full Gear is what I've been saying all along,
Speaker 1: which is that Mercedes is going to lose. And there
Speaker 1: are still some people who are convinced otherwise, and you
Speaker 1: have every right to feel that way based on the
Speaker 1: way this run has gone. But I'm telling you, for
Speaker 1: the story that they seem to be telling, and the
Speaker 1: story that I think they should tell, she has to
Speaker 1: lose on Saturday. And I think this was a good sign.
Speaker 1: You know, last week in Blood and guts. Statlander put
Speaker 1: her down through a table with a simoon drop, and
Speaker 1: I said, well, let's see what happens. There's one more
Speaker 1: show left, and sure enough, Mercedes got the last laugh
Speaker 1: here on this show. She tapped out Chris Statlander and
Speaker 1: she won the match, and she's posing with all of
Speaker 1: her belts. She's losing. She's losing on Saturday, because that
Speaker 1: is the story. The story is that she all of
Speaker 1: these championships and the one blemish on her record this
Speaker 1: year they said thirty and one. You know who. The
Speaker 1: one is Tony Storm that was for the aw Women's
Speaker 1: World title in Texas. She lost. Then she's gonna lose
Speaker 1: on Saturday, and she will eventually win that championship, but
Speaker 1: when she does, she's not gonna have thirteen titles in
Speaker 1: her luggage that she's transporting with her to every city.
Speaker 1: She'll be beltless at that point, and then it'll be
Speaker 1: okay for her to win the championship next year. Now
Speaker 1: is not that time. So watching what happened here at
Speaker 1: the end of the show only reinforces that prediction in
Speaker 1: my mind that Chris Statlander's title is safe, at least
Speaker 1: for a little while. Longer I'm fairly confident that the
Speaker 1: outcome will be very different at Full Gear this year
Speaker 1: than it was at last year's. Full Gear didn't work
Speaker 1: out too well for Chris Statlander last year. I think
Speaker 1: she'll be fine this weekend. And that was your Dynamite
Speaker 1: and Collision combo show. Please don't do these again. I
Speaker 1: hate these combo show I really I hate these combo shows.
Speaker 1: Let's go through these predictions real quick. I got the
Speaker 1: full card here. You guys can chime in with your
Speaker 1: own thoughts and predictions. This is the current, hopefully final
Speaker 1: Full Gear card. Pre show starts at seven Eastern on Saturday.
Speaker 1: Main card kicks off at eight pm Eastern. We have
Speaker 1: on the pre show Big Boom aj of the Costco guys.
Speaker 1: He's back and he's teaming with QT Marshall against Rocky
Speaker 1: Romero and Trentperetta. I'm sure that will be a win
Speaker 1: for Big Boom and QT, because Rocky Romero never wins shit.
Speaker 1: We have the Acclaimed, We have the Bang Bang Gang,
Speaker 1: Big Bill and Brian Keith and the Outrunners. This is
Speaker 1: going to be a two hundred thousand dollars tag team match.
Speaker 1: Why why not? The Acclaim will win the cash. It
Speaker 1: should be the Outrunners, but Tony doesn't do shit with
Speaker 1: the Outrunners. They never win anything, so I don't see
Speaker 1: why they would win here. And just added Okata Takeshta,
Speaker 1: Hetchi Sero challenge Sky Team Mascariderata, Mystico and Neon for
Speaker 1: the CMLL Trios Championships. I'm gonna go that we have
Speaker 1: new champions. I think Gokata Takeshta and Hetchisara win the belts.
Speaker 1: That's my prediction. Otherwise, if they're gonna lose, then Hetchesaro
Speaker 1: is taking the losing fall. But I think they're gonna win.
Speaker 1: Then on the main card we have the Casino Gauntlet match.
Speaker 1: We know that Bobby Lashley is number one, Shelton Benjamin
Speaker 1: is number two. We know Ricochet is in, the Gates
Speaker 1: of Agony are in, and we know that jet Speed
Speaker 1: is in. And I believe that's all we know. A
Speaker 1: lot of people may think that rikishe is gonna win
Speaker 1: the championship, especially after what happened tonight. For on a bone,
Speaker 1: We'll give him something to do. I'm going with Switchblade
Speaker 1: Jay White. There's the name you haven't heard in a while.
Speaker 1: He's been out hurt, he's had a string of bad
Speaker 1: luck when you know it comes to injuries. I honestly
Speaker 1: don't even know what his status is, but he's been
Speaker 1: gone long enough and I feel like he's someone who
Speaker 1: could potentially benefit. He could take this new championship and maybe,
Speaker 1: you know, help elevate it to a certain level that
Speaker 1: is maybe right alongside the TNT title. It gives him,
Speaker 1: you know, something worthwhile to do upon his return, as
Speaker 1: I don't see him immediately being vaulted into the world
Speaker 1: title picture, and he shouldn't be. He shouldn't be vaulted
Speaker 1: into the world title picture. I hope we get to
Speaker 1: see Switchblade back, and if we do, I think he's
Speaker 1: gonna win the championship. That's my prediction. Then we have
Speaker 1: the million Dollar Match, which we'll have Kenny Omega and
Speaker 1: the Jurassic Express team of Jack Perry and Lucasaurus taking
Speaker 1: on the Young Bucks and Josh Alexander. I originally had
Speaker 1: the Heels. I am changing my prediction. I am going
Speaker 1: with Omega and Jurassic Express, and I do think that
Speaker 1: this leads to a reunion of the Elite. We have
Speaker 1: the women's tag team four Corners match with all four
Speaker 1: teams that remain in the tag team title tournament, So
Speaker 1: Tony and Mina, Meghan Baine and Marina Shafir, Willow Nightingaleen Harley,
Speaker 1: Cameron Sky Blue, and Julia Hart. The winners get to
Speaker 1: choose the stipulation for their next tournament match. I am
Speaker 1: going to go with Meghan Baine and Marina Shafir for
Speaker 1: the win because I think they lose to Tony and Mina.
Speaker 1: I still have Tony Amina winning the titles, so at
Speaker 1: least here they get a win. They could pick the
Speaker 1: stip for their match. That's really up the two matches
Speaker 1: that are left in this second round. That's the one
Speaker 1: that's the bigger of the two matches because this directly
Speaker 1: stems from the finish of Blood and Guts last week, right,
Speaker 1: and that was that was a blooding guts match and
Speaker 1: that was a pretty intense finish there. That really is
Speaker 1: the match that should have the stipulation. And I don't
Speaker 1: see Tony Amina winning now. I see them winning at
Speaker 1: the end. So I'm going with Megan and Marina. They win,
Speaker 1: they picked the step what the stip is, who the
Speaker 1: hell knows. I don't think we should have stipulations at
Speaker 1: all in this tournament. I don't like that, but this
Speaker 1: is what they've chosen to do. We have Mark Briscoe
Speaker 1: and Kyle Fletcher no disqualification for the TNT Championship. This
Speaker 1: should be a win for Mark Briscoe. He is not
Speaker 1: joining the Kallis family, and we will have a new
Speaker 1: TNT champion. John Moxley will face Kyle O'Reilly no holds barred.
Speaker 1: My head in my heart are telling me two different things.
Speaker 1: My head tells me John Moxley, my heart, and what
Speaker 1: I would like to see them do is Kyle O'Reilly.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Kyle. I'm gonna go with what
Speaker 1: I think should happen. I think Kyle O'Reilly should win
Speaker 1: this match. And then I think in Darby Allen and Pack,
Speaker 1: I think Pack should win. I think Boxley loses. I
Speaker 1: think Pack wins, and let's progress this death Rider's thing
Speaker 1: to that next chapter of the story. Clearly the story
Speaker 1: is not going to be over for some time. Well,
Speaker 1: let's at least progress to whatever this next chapter is
Speaker 1: going to be. And I think that's the way you
Speaker 1: do it. Kyle wins, Pack wins. We have Brodido against
Speaker 1: FTR for the tag team titles. I think we have
Speaker 1: new champions in FTR Chris Statlander and Mercedes Monet. For
Speaker 1: the Women's World Championship, there should absolutely be and I
Speaker 1: believe will be a win for Chris Statlander. And then
Speaker 1: in the main event, Hangman Adam Page against Samoa Joe
Speaker 1: Steel cage for the AW World Championship. You know now
Speaker 1: that you mentioned that before in the chat, it would
Speaker 1: be interesting if MJF makes his presence felt during the
Speaker 1: match and is no disqualification because in a cage match
Speaker 1: there are no dqs, and it leads to Samoa Joe
Speaker 1: winning the championship and Joe gets as he did last time.
Speaker 1: It wasn't a very long run. Oh he got a
Speaker 1: few months though. I mean Joe won the title at
Speaker 1: World's End. He lost it to Swerve at Dynasty, so
Speaker 1: he had it from the very really the beginning of
Speaker 1: the year to early April, or maybe it was late
Speaker 1: April late April, so he had a little decent run
Speaker 1: out of it if he was to win the championship.
Speaker 1: I don't see him having the title nearly as long
Speaker 1: this time. But I'm just not sure that they're going
Speaker 1: to do that. I'm gonna stick with my original pick.
Speaker 1: I had Hangman winning. Everything they've done, honestly, even tonight
Speaker 1: points to a different outcome. But I'm going to stick
Speaker 1: to my guns and say that Hangman retains. We have
Speaker 1: MJF make a surprise return postmatch. He can't cash in
Speaker 1: his title contract because the rules have changed, so now
Speaker 1: you've got to give at least a week's notice. And
Speaker 1: I think all roads lead to Hangman and MJF at
Speaker 1: World's end if I had to make a prediction about
Speaker 1: what the main event will be on that show. But
Speaker 1: can I see Samoa Joe still being involved in this
Speaker 1: and maybe, you know, turning it into a three way. Sure,
Speaker 1: but the real issue here is Hangman and MJF. That's
Speaker 1: what they have to circle back to, you know, that's
Speaker 1: the match to do. So I got Hangman retaining here.
Speaker 1: So that is the full gear card, barring any additional
Speaker 1: matches that are added on social media in the next
Speaker 1: few days, which, by the way, there very well could be.
Speaker 1: I don't think so though. I mean, the the pre show,
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure is only an hour, you know, sometimes
Speaker 1: it's two hours, hours or ninety minutes. It's a seven
Speaker 1: o'clock start time, so you only have an hour. They
Speaker 1: already have three matches, so I'm pretty sure we've got
Speaker 1: the card lockdown at this point. Be aware that I
Speaker 1: will not be here on Friday for the SmackDown review.
Speaker 1: I will be in Chicago. Will be in Chicago because
Speaker 1: House of Glory. We have a sold out show at
Speaker 1: Logan Square Auditorium. And as you see here on the poster,
Speaker 1: that's just some of the action that we've got. Pretty
Speaker 1: good card. I gotta tell you, first time ever, amazing
Speaker 1: Red and Tyler Breese. Very happy to be bringing Tyler
Speaker 1: Breese in. Got to get the full entrance. Charles Mason
Speaker 1: defends the hog World Championship against Cedric Alexander. We got
Speaker 1: the rascals going to be in action against main events.
Speaker 1: Zillafa two is back. Who will he be wrestling. We'll
Speaker 1: see Moustafa Ali against Marcus Mathers. Indie hartw Well defends
Speaker 1: her title again, Shotzi and more. So there's no tickets left,
Speaker 1: but you can watch on Triller TV plus. Guess who's
Speaker 1: going to be on the call. This guy right here,
Speaker 1: I'll be calling the actions. So if you're not watching SmackDown,
Speaker 1: and many of you have already checked out of SmackDown,
Speaker 1: then go ahead and check out. Our return to the
Speaker 1: Windy City should be a lot of fun. I'm looking
Speaker 1: forward to it. Samoa Joe crashing out is really funny,
Speaker 1: says Dried Chicken and Turkey. Joe is the best part
Speaker 1: of that main event. But Joe was great. He wasn't
Speaker 1: even in the match. Today's episode is sponsored by Better Help.
Speaker 1: One thing I hate about the Fall season is how
Speaker 1: it gets darker earlier. Makes me feel like I somehow
Speaker 1: have fewer hours in the day to get stuff done.
Speaker 1: And honestly, I just find it to be depressing when
Speaker 1: I look out the window of four o'clock in the
Speaker 1: afternoon and it's pitch black outside. But it really can
Speaker 1: have a negative effect on your mental state. That's why
Speaker 1: all November long, Better Help is encouraging you to reach out,
Speaker 1: whether it be to reconnect with an old friend that
Speaker 1: you haven't spoken to in forever, or to check in
Speaker 1: on a family member, to remind the people in your
Speaker 1: life that you're there and they're not alone. And just
Speaker 1: like it takes courage to send that message or make
Speaker 1: that phone call, seeking out help in the form of
Speaker 1: therapy can feel intimidating also, but it's worth it. You'll
Speaker 1: be asking yourself, man, how come I didn't do this sooner?
Speaker 1: Finding the right therapist can be life changing, and better
Speaker 1: Help makes that process simple. They do the initial matching

Speaker 1: dot com slash solo Monster the Moldy Cheeseburger. Who has
Speaker 1: the better retirement tour currently, Hiroshi Tanahashi or John Cena, Well,
Speaker 1: I mean it's just two totally different tours. I mean,
Speaker 1: Sena's obviously got more eyeballs on what he's doing, and
Speaker 1: he's had bigger matches. You know, you had a couple
Speaker 1: of matches with Cody, you had a rematch with Punk
Speaker 1: and Orton along the way AJ So his retirement tour
Speaker 1: has been more prolific. I can name off better matches
Speaker 1: that I have personally have watched from seen as retirement tour.
Speaker 1: A lot of the matches that Tanahashi has had, I
Speaker 1: mean there's been like a lot of tags. He's been
Speaker 1: more active than Sina. So again, it's it's really just
Speaker 1: two totally different tours. Like Sena has a limited number
Speaker 1: of dates, Tanahashi's been you know, he's been working all
Speaker 1: year and working with younger guys, working with older guys,
Speaker 1: So I haven't really seen too much of Tanahashi's tour.
Speaker 1: It's unfair for me to judge honestly, doesn't change the
Speaker 1: fact that so much of what they did with Sina
Speaker 1: early on was a fucking botch. Also, I not as
Speaker 1: WWE doesn't counter program AW shows anymore. Is there a
Speaker 1: reason why? What are you talking about? They just did
Speaker 1: in September. I mean, they're not gonna do it every month,
Speaker 1: but they're absolutely still doing it and they will continue
Speaker 1: doing it into next year. We just had Wrestle Palooza.
Speaker 1: That's why All Out got moved in September. It wasn't
Speaker 1: that long ago, dude, it was well now it's officially
Speaker 1: November twentieth, it was literally two months ago. Believe me,
Speaker 1: they're still counter programming aw mactub. Why isn't rock It
Speaker 1: guaranteed Rushmore Guy biggest ratings, attendance, pay per view draw
Speaker 1: goat Mike Austin because he just wasn't he dude, He
Speaker 1: wasn't as big. He might be bigger now, but like
Speaker 1: at the peak, Austin just hit different and without Austin
Speaker 1: getting hot when he did in the way that he did,
Speaker 1: they don't have the successes that they had. It really
Speaker 1: hinged on him and the whole Austin mcmanonthing getting over.
Speaker 1: So Austin is in that rarefied air, so was Hogan.
Speaker 1: People would have said the same thing I think about Savage, Dude,
Speaker 1: Oh welcome, Hogan gets all the praise, what about Savage?
Speaker 1: Savage is great, Rock is great, But Hogan was the guy.
Speaker 1: Austin was the guy. They they transcended at just the
Speaker 1: right time, and everything else flowed from that. Rock's not
Speaker 1: on my Mott Rushmore. He could be on yours. He's
Speaker 1: not on mine. He's not on a lot of people's. Uh.
Speaker 1: Sena versus Brian White, t J, Triple H better overall
Speaker 1: for you, better overall of Sena, Sina White two Jay.
Speaker 1: I wasn't really a fan of that for me personally,
Speaker 1: Brian just a much better match. Yeah. Sena against Triple
Speaker 1: H never never did anything for me. I was never
Speaker 1: a fan of their matches, their feud eh boring. If
Speaker 1: I had to rank them, I'd go Brian, then y
Speaker 1: two J, then Triple H. Dude here seventy three says
Speaker 1: this was more a go to sleep show than a
Speaker 1: go home show. I agree. I was struggling to keep
Speaker 1: up with things. Midway through. I was I was pretty
Speaker 1: well done with this show, says, and I'm trying to
Speaker 1: understand what the point of Blood and Guts was. They're
Speaker 1: running back a lot of the same feud Saturday with
Speaker 1: more stipulations. Yeah, it's just it's very dumb. It's just
Speaker 1: it's very stupid. Hey, guys, Maven here with a five
Speaker 1: dollars super chat. Eddie botches a spinning backfisted all out
Speaker 1: on September twentieth. Mina botches a spinning backfist today, November nineteenth.
Speaker 1: Maybe we get a third botched backfist that dynamite on
Speaker 1: January twenty first. Well, I'm going to leave that up
Speaker 1: to you. Mark that date down, and when we get
Speaker 1: to that show, let's see what happens. Maybe we'll get
Speaker 1: another one. Baby and Garcia Kyle versus Max should be
Speaker 1: a thirty minute ultimate submission. Oh no, no, it should not. No,
Speaker 1: I don't want to see that. There is no there's
Speaker 1: no reason for Maxley and Kyle to go thirty minutes.
Speaker 1: This is another problem with these aw shows. It's you know,
Speaker 1: they give you a lot of matches, but there are
Speaker 1: matches in the middle of this card that go way
Speaker 1: longer than they need to. The The Brisco and Kyle
Speaker 1: Fletcher match at Wrestle Dream twenty five minutes for that match?
Speaker 1: Why just to have a second one. I don't want
Speaker 1: to see Moxley in a thirty minute anything. I mean Moxley.
Speaker 1: Moxley can be great, you know, with the right opponent
Speaker 1: and everything, But Moxley and Kyle in a thirty minute
Speaker 1: match on this show with ten or eleven other matches
Speaker 1: absolutely not Arabian Night. Do they not know how to
Speaker 1: sell big moves and finishers in aaw shaking my head,
Speaker 1: nothing matters. I guess they all watched PWG growing up.
Speaker 1: They did. Actually, many of them competed in PWG. I
Speaker 1: believe Daniel Garcia was the last PWG champion still is
Speaker 1: so Statlander getting up ten seconds later was dumb? Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Statlander stuff at the end was very weird, the
Speaker 1: way that all transpired. Boss Toys, are we used to
Speaker 1: Pack looking that way? Yet? Because I'm not also nice
Speaker 1: to see Samoa Joe continue to intimidate Tony Shavani just
Speaker 1: by existing. Yeah, Pack, I'm still getting over this new look.
Speaker 1: It's the hair, Alex says, brother solo. How in the
Speaker 1: world did Diesel and Sean main event over Elt and Bambam.
Speaker 1: What was Vince thinking behind that decision? Also, what did
Speaker 1: you think of the Diesel and Shawn Michael's match. I'm
Speaker 1: not really a big fan of that match. It's not
Speaker 1: a bad match, but I don't like it nearly as
Speaker 1: much as they are good friends better enemies match. And
Speaker 1: the reason why lte main event of the show is
Speaker 1: because they've always been I mean, they've always been starfuckers
Speaker 1: in this company, you know. And if they got a
Speaker 1: celebrity to come in to do a match back then,
Speaker 1: they were paying him. I think they paid him about
Speaker 1: half a million dollars for that match. They were gonna
Speaker 1: get their money's worth. They were putting him in that
Speaker 1: main event. They had all the other NFL guys out there,
Speaker 1: all the celebrities they brought in, paid a lot of
Speaker 1: money to get him to do that match, So it
Speaker 1: was always going to be the main event. And Big
Speaker 1: Hoss ranked these six wrestlers futures and potential bron Breaker
Speaker 1: Dom Jacob fought to ol Befemi, Trick Williams, and Javon Evans. Also,
Speaker 1: I need Athena in WWE and on SmackDown. She would
Speaker 1: be a tremendous addition to SmackDown. But she's not going nowhere.
Speaker 1: I have said. I just said this on TNT last night.
Speaker 1: I said it on my platform. This company needs to
Speaker 1: build around five guys. If we're looking at the guys
Speaker 1: right now, and I think they will five guys as
Speaker 1: their future and in no particular order, it's Dom bron Breaker,
Speaker 1: Jacob Fatu, Oba Femi, and Javon Evans. Just like in
Speaker 1: those five guys alone, they could help carry this company
Speaker 1: for years to come. Me and never know how things
Speaker 1: are gonna go. Injuries and you know, things like that.
Speaker 1: Shit happens, things don't pan out. But as of right now,
Speaker 1: like I look at if I had it, like, look
Speaker 1: at what's that nucleus of guys. Those are the five
Speaker 1: guys right there. I don't like ranking them because no
Speaker 1: one knows, like which one of them is going to
Speaker 1: hit it big. It could be dumb for all we know.
Speaker 1: You know, he's he's already got five years of being
Speaker 1: established on TV. You know, just looking at these guys
Speaker 1: right now, they all have great potential to be top
Speaker 1: guys in the company. I think Oba may have the greatest.
Speaker 1: I might have to put Oba first honestly, you know,
Speaker 1: and then maybe fought to and then Breaker and then
Speaker 1: dom and then trick. I don't know. I hate ranking
Speaker 1: them because we just don't know where they're gonna end up.
Speaker 1: But they're in good hands as long as they know
Speaker 1: what they're doing with them, you know, and they utilize
Speaker 1: them and book them properly. The talent is there. You
Speaker 1: can't say, oh my god, where are we going to
Speaker 1: find the future. The future is right there, you know.
Speaker 1: The future is now. Future is staring you right in
Speaker 1: the face. Doctor Scorpio. Aw needs Michael Myers in blood
Speaker 1: and guts at this rate. I mean, they set people
Speaker 1: on fire, they attempted murder, and yes, I watched the movies.
Speaker 1: I enjoyed them. Well, i'll tell you what, man, If
Speaker 1: you would have just come into Dynamite tonight and I
Speaker 1: had no idea that last week was blood and guts,
Speaker 1: I never would have known. If Pac didn't mention Darby
Speaker 1: being set on fire, I never would have known. You're
Speaker 1: gonna do that level of brutality and violence. You got
Speaker 1: you gotta wear those wounds of war. The closest thing
Speaker 1: was sky Blue and her backstage promo. If you're really
Speaker 1: squinted and you looked hard, you could kind of see
Speaker 1: a little scar along the hairline. But that was it
Speaker 1: pretty much. Oh what a way, what a waste that
Speaker 1: opportunity to really sell the brutality of blood and guts.
Speaker 1: But this feels like nothing matters anyway. Full Gear is
Speaker 1: on Saturday, so we'll talk about that, I'm sure on
Speaker 1: the podcast. I have a lot to say on the
Speaker 1: podcast this weekend. Hey Duff's VIDs with A four ninety nine.
Speaker 1: Hey Solo, what are your top three or five Survivor
Speaker 1: series pay per views? I want to watch one one
Speaker 1: or so before Survivor Series twenty twenty five. Well, then
Speaker 1: you're in luck because on the WWE Vault channel they
Speaker 1: just uploaded one the other day, Survivor Series eighty nine.
Speaker 1: Uh and that was literally what two three days ago?
Speaker 1: I think they streamed that one. Go check that one out.
Speaker 1: It's on their channel right now. Survivor Series eighty nine
Speaker 1: is probably one of them. For me. I really enjoyed ninety,
Speaker 1: which had that ultimate Survivor's match at the end, which
Speaker 1: they never did again. Two thousand and two is a
Speaker 1: pretty good one. M God. You know, for me personally,
Speaker 1: I may go eighty nine, ninety I like ninety five.
Speaker 1: Ninety six. Ninety six had Sewn and Sid in the
Speaker 1: main event, which was Sid's best match, the first Brett
Speaker 1: Hart Steve Austin match, which is a classic. They had
Speaker 1: Rock's debut on that show, you know, as far as
Speaker 1: historical significance goes. But I think just for Sean and
Speaker 1: Sid and Breton Breton Austin alone, ninety six has to
Speaker 1: be up there. Yeah, ninety five is underrated. I like
Speaker 1: ninety five, but yeah, if you're looking for one to
Speaker 1: go check out, the easiest one that you're going to
Speaker 1: be able to grab is on their Vault channel. Go
Speaker 1: check out eighty nine. Always love the team names back then,
Speaker 1: the Hulkmedias and the Million Dollar Team, the Vipers and
Speaker 1: the Visionaries. Vince doing all the intros really made it
Speaker 1: feel special, you know, really got you pumped up at
Speaker 1: the beginning of the show. I think one of the
Speaker 1: things that I really can't stand about the weekly shows
Speaker 1: now on TV is how just they all blend together.
Speaker 1: There's nothing like when they come on the air. There's
Speaker 1: nothing to really get you excited, Like Raw comes on
Speaker 1: the air. There's no proper intro anymore. They did away
Speaker 1: with the intro. There's no more intro from Monday Night Raw.
Speaker 1: There's no intro video. They don't come into the arena
Speaker 1: the pyro's going off and everything to really get your
Speaker 1: blood pumping. You know, they have fucking Travis Scott singing
Speaker 1: the raw things. So they come on the air. Here's
Speaker 1: who's coming in with their coffee at three o'clock in
Speaker 1: the afternoon, walking pretending to have a conversation with the
Speaker 1: person next to them. Like, how fucking lazy are they
Speaker 1: with these shows? Man? What happened? What happened to the
Speaker 1: weekly shows? Man? When the show comes on the air,
Speaker 1: they get you excited. It's missing one of the many
Speaker 1: things that is missing from these weekly shows. All right,
Speaker 1: I'll see you guys in Chicago and back here on Monday.
Speaker 1: Until then, take care,
