00:00:50,359 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 1: I didn't know it was bad.

10
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,719
Speaker 3: I watched it just a little bit before we started this.

11
00:00:56,719 --> 00:00:58,439
It become fresh.

12
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it was nice seeing it back again

13
00:01:02,039 --> 00:01:07,760
and a little bit odd, I think, yeah, from home

14
00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:13,480
doing the uh the remote and I love the way

15
00:01:13,519 --> 00:01:17,040
they played it off where like, uh it was it

16
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,519
an ex Caliber was mentioning Taz taking his shoes and

17
00:01:20,599 --> 00:01:24,760
socks off, dropping them into the crowd in Wales when

18
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,040
you knew that they were probably in New York when

19
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,359
they were doing it. Yeah, probably not even in the

20
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,799
same road Taz was in New York, you know, Uh,

21
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,359
ex Caliber was probably wherever he lives, Florida, Waiver.

22
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 3: I love when they can't be there but they pretend

23
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:43,200
they are.

24
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, But anyway, it was fun. It was great seeing

25
00:01:45,879 --> 00:01:50,640
a w Dark back for one night only. It was fun.

26
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,719
Speaker 3: That the patches were good relatively short.

27
00:01:54,840 --> 00:02:00,120
Speaker 2: So yeah, like thirty what were you gonna say.

28
00:02:00,439 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say, like I must have been out

29
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,879
of the loop because I had no idea what was happening.

30
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 2: At Yeah, it's it's on YouTube, so you can watch it.

31
00:02:10,439 --> 00:02:12,439
Right after we're done with this podcast, you can go

32
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:17,719
watch aw Dark. Yeah. You know, well, you weren't feeling

33
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,759
well last week, so we'll give you a pass. But

34
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,800
you know, they did announce it last week and they

35
00:02:24,479 --> 00:02:27,759
it's been all over to discord and all over the

36
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,479
subreddits and things like that, so you know, on Twitter

37
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,400
and all that happy stuff. So if you missed it,

38
00:02:34,479 --> 00:02:36,599
you missed it. But you know what, let's get on

39
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,960
with the show because we got some things that we

40
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:44,360
want to talk about. I don't know. The thing I

41
00:02:44,479 --> 00:02:48,280
kind of want to lead off with is is speedball

42
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:53,360
Mike Bailey. He had this really, really good match, a

43
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:57,439
really good match. People were really I don't know why

44
00:02:57,479 --> 00:03:02,360
I keep saying really so much, uh really, but anyway,

45
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:08,319
people were were praising this match is one of the

46
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,840
best TV matches of the year, if not even a

47
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,840
candidate for Match of the Year, the match between Speedball

48
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,360
Mike Bailey and Kyle Fletcher, and then of course Speedball

49
00:03:20,439 --> 00:03:23,960
Mike Bailey then wrestled Kevin Knight in the Continental Classic.

50
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,840
What was that our collision? And that was a different

51
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,080
kind of match, but it was still really good. There,

52
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:37,240
I said, really again, did you guys see these two matches?

53
00:03:37,479 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: Yes, and I saw the SA I saw the one

54
00:03:42,639 --> 00:03:46,759
versus Kyle Fletcher, and yeah, it was.

55
00:03:48,319 --> 00:03:53,759
Speaker 2: Don't go there, you stop bucking me. I hope you

56
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,159
get snow in Ohio.

57
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 3: I would say it was very good, quite good, extremely good.

58
00:04:02,479 --> 00:04:04,159
I don't know if i'd say really good.

59
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 2: Okay, so so no no, no, no, no, no no,

60
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,719
but okay, I'm gonna put you on the spot, Chris

61
00:04:12,719 --> 00:04:17,040
with the match between Kyle Fletcher at speed by Mike Bailey.

62
00:04:17,199 --> 00:04:21,480
Using our new scale of zero to ten thousand pictures

63
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,079
of Adam Cole, what would you give this match?

64
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 3: Oh, ten thousand, easy, but you're going right to ten thousand. Yeah, Like,

65
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,839
I definitely say it was the TV back of the Year,

66
00:04:32,959 --> 00:04:35,600
And I mean I'm pretty sure I know I t

67
00:04:35,639 --> 00:04:39,079
we did Match of the Year contender, like it wouldn't.

68
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,879
The match with Fletcher was so freaking good, Like those

69
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:49,800
two just went ball to the wall, you know, everything

70
00:04:49,879 --> 00:04:56,360
they had for almost twenty minutes, and I mean, just

71
00:04:57,079 --> 00:04:59,040
an amazing match all around.

72
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, go ahead.

73
00:05:02,759 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 1: By also I also give it, I said, I also

74
00:05:06,519 --> 00:05:10,519
give it ten thousand pictures of Adam Cole, and I'll

75
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,319
add on an extra five thousand picture just because Mike

76
00:05:13,399 --> 00:05:17,279
Bailey is so dang cute. He's adorable. Look at him.

77
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,279
He's like a Pokemon. He's like a marginal.

78
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, with a mullet. There's still so many mullets in wrestling. Yeah,

79
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,720
I mean, gosh, it's like how many. It's just weird

80
00:05:30,759 --> 00:05:32,959
that there's so many wrestlers that have mullets where you

81
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,720
really don't see them. I don't see them out in

82
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:40,639
the wild that often, So I don't know. But the

83
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:45,120
one thing I will say about this match, aw made

84
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,600
a two minute and I know that it is this long.

85
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,720
It's a two minute and twenty five second highlight reel

86
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,319
of this match that they posted, and it got posted

87
00:05:54,399 --> 00:05:58,959
on different you know, social media, different on acts and

88
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,399
on Blue Sky and Reddit and on one of our subreddits,

89
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,959
Greatness of Wrestling. It was posted and you could you

90
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,720
don't look, I don't know how other way to put this,

91
00:06:10,879 --> 00:06:15,160
but it's a two minute and twenty five second highlight reel,

92
00:06:16,199 --> 00:06:20,639
a highlight reel of a nineteen minute and ten second match.

93
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,360
Remember this thing almost went to the time limit, you know,

94
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,920
the Mike Bailey when he got the pin, time was

95
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,839
running out. They were in desperation mode at that point.

96
00:06:32,959 --> 00:06:36,399
They had just announced one minute left when Mike Bailey

97
00:06:36,439 --> 00:06:41,480
got the pin a few seconds later. But anyway, people watched.

98
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:44,800
I don't even think they watched the entire two minute

99
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,920
and twenty five second highlight reel. But you're gonna have these.

100
00:06:50,759 --> 00:06:54,120
I'm just gonna say it's sports entertainment fans that have

101
00:06:54,639 --> 00:06:57,639
no knowledge of professional wrestling. I'm just gonna say it.

102
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,720
I'm sorry, but it's the way I feel, uh saying

103
00:07:01,759 --> 00:07:06,360
things like oh it's flippy shit, no selling, It looked

104
00:07:06,439 --> 00:07:14,319
like choreographed ballet gymnastics, no storytelling. Seriously, you get this

105
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,120
ont of a two minute and twenty five second highlight

106
00:07:18,199 --> 00:07:21,720
reel of a nineteen minute and ten second match. Do

107
00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:23,759
you think that's fair helm.

108
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 3: They ye, not at all, But it's what it's what

109
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:35,000
I would say eighty percent of the aw haters too.

110
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:41,560
They watch a small clip and, like you said, may

111
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,160
not even watch the entire thing and use that as

112
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,639
if it's the entire match, so they can bitch and

113
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:52,959
complain and use all the classic you know, BLUs word,

114
00:07:54,000 --> 00:08:01,040
no cell flipping, floppy bullshit. You know, they're idiots who

115
00:08:01,079 --> 00:08:04,639
should not be listened to. No, you don't watch an

116
00:08:04,839 --> 00:08:11,680
entire match. You can't judge the entire match, like if

117
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,920
you don't want to. If you don't like that kind

118
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,639
of wrestling, that's probably fine.

119
00:08:16,439 --> 00:08:20,079
Speaker 2: That's fine, but yeah, don't watch it. Yeah, don't comment

120
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:20,560
about it.

121
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, and no fear waiting around for Cornett to tell

122
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,160
you what to think about the match either.

123
00:08:26,759 --> 00:08:29,839
Speaker 2: But look, guys, you know it's coming to those people

124
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:37,000
that say that this is flippy shit ballerina gymnastics, no selling,

125
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,360
no storytelling, talking out of their ass. There's really only

126
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,200
four words that need to be said. You know what

127
00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:49,360
they are, guys, I'll say it with me in one, two,

128
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:56,120
three shot that hell no, there you go. But anyway,

129
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,559
let's get back into serious stuff though. With the speedball

130
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,200
Mike Bailey, I mean, look, when he had this match

131
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:08,440
against Kyle Fletcher, this was really an opportunity for a

132
00:09:08,519 --> 00:09:13,039
speedball Mike Bailey, who, in my opinion, has been doing okay,

133
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:18,279
But okay is not good enough when you're surrounded by

134
00:09:18,759 --> 00:09:23,679
the athletes that AW does put out there. This was

135
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,440
his coming out party. Would you agree with me in

136
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,360
that this was, by bar the best speedball Mike Bailey

137
00:09:30,399 --> 00:09:32,240
has presented himself in AW.

138
00:09:32,639 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 1: Absolutely. I love Jet Speed as a team. They're like

139
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,639
one of my favorites. There's so much fun. They have

140
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,679
great chemistry. But one thing that's been awesome about this

141
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,320
Continental Classic is that it's given both of them a

142
00:09:45,399 --> 00:09:47,559
chance to shine on their own merits.

143
00:09:47,919 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, for sure. Yeah. I mean both have had

144
00:09:51,879 --> 00:09:56,039
singles matches, they're great as a team. You know, Bailey

145
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,399
had some big matches early on when he came in

146
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:04,000
and they were, you know great. This match felt like

147
00:10:05,039 --> 00:10:09,120
the first time we're seeing that, Okay, this is the

148
00:10:09,159 --> 00:10:15,440
guy who is really brilly go. Like, you know, like

149
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,320
some people knew like he had great matches in the NA,

150
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,399
he has some great matches in New Japan, you know,

151
00:10:24,639 --> 00:10:28,120
other independence and stuff, but like this was the match

152
00:10:28,159 --> 00:10:34,639
that I think sold a lot of people on speedball,

153
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,799
being like, Okay, he could be a top tier guy.

154
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, but now look so now Speedball has won two

155
00:10:41,639 --> 00:10:45,480
in a row because he's beaten uh Kyle Fletcher, and

156
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,919
of course he then beat his partner in jet Speed,

157
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,159
Kevin Knight. Do you think that his streak will continue?

158
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,000
Do you think that he may actually make the semi

159
00:10:56,039 --> 00:10:58,879
finals in the Continental Classic or do you think that

160
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,000
he's kind of gone as far as he's gonna go

161
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,600
in this What are your thoughts?

162
00:11:03,919 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 1: Gosh, I hope so the more Speedball the better, just

163
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,840
like the amount of great matches he could have, like

164
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,120
going into the tournament is just astounding.

165
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,879
Speaker 3: What about you, Chris, I'm a big famous Feedball, so

166
00:11:17,039 --> 00:11:20,240
I'd love to see it. It's it's one of those

167
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,399
I could see it going either way, you know, because

168
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,159
there are so many good wrestlers in the Continental Plastic.

169
00:11:28,279 --> 00:11:32,679
You know, he could he could make the semifinals. He

170
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,399
could lose his next two. I'm personally rooting for him

171
00:11:36,399 --> 00:11:39,519
because I like his matches. All three of his matches

172
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:44,240
have been fantastic. These last two. You know, the match

173
00:11:44,279 --> 00:11:47,720
with Kyle Fletcher, that's a put on the map kind

174
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,720
of match, and then the one with Kevin Knight was

175
00:11:50,799 --> 00:11:54,480
so great because the back and forth and him busting

176
00:11:54,519 --> 00:11:58,480
out the Flamingo driver for the first time. He's attempted

177
00:11:58,519 --> 00:12:01,879
it before, but I think only once or twice, but

178
00:12:02,519 --> 00:12:05,080
this time he got it. That was what he needed

179
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:09,799
to beat his partner who knows him so well. It's

180
00:12:09,799 --> 00:12:12,799
been a really great tournament for him, and yeah, I'd

181
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,799
love to say and make the semifinals.

182
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 2: Well here's where I think, and I'm gonna ask you

183
00:12:17,919 --> 00:12:19,879
to see whether you guys agree with me or not.

184
00:12:20,039 --> 00:12:23,720
But when I look at the Kyle Fletcher versus Speedball

185
00:12:23,799 --> 00:12:28,039
Mike Bailey match, I looked at it and the way

186
00:12:28,279 --> 00:12:31,879
Bailey came through in that match and a convincing I'm

187
00:12:31,879 --> 00:12:35,519
not saying that he convincingly beat Kyle Fletcher. I'm saying

188
00:12:35,519 --> 00:12:40,360
that he was convincing as far as being a good contender,

189
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:45,679
a good matchup with Kyle Fletcher. I don't think that

190
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:52,320
it is necessary for Mike Bailey to actually make the

191
00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:57,200
quarterfinals in the Continental Classic. And the reason why I

192
00:12:57,279 --> 00:13:02,679
believe that is that we have a rematch begging to

193
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:06,679
be done with Kyle Fletcher and they could do that

194
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:13,039
after maybe Kyle Fletcher wins the TNT Championship, or maybe

195
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,279
they can have a match together against each other to

196
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:22,200
determine the number one contender for the TNT Championship. I

197
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,279
don't know, but that's just something that I was thinking about.

198
00:13:25,279 --> 00:13:26,120
What do you guys think?

199
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, I see your point, but he may not need it,

200
00:13:29,799 --> 00:13:31,559
but it'd still be nice to see.

201
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:37,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with with. You know, I picked Kyle

202
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,879
Fletcher to win the Continent Classic, so you know, could

203
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:45,000
have a rematch after that or that title as well,

204
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,519
or you know, true for the national title.

205
00:13:50,279 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 2: Very true.

206
00:13:51,279 --> 00:13:55,919
Speaker 3: He's the thing about this tournament is you have you

207
00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:02,200
can build up future stories use current story, and you know,

208
00:14:03,159 --> 00:14:05,960
you can highlight someone who maybe they're not gonna win,

209
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,960
maybe they're not even gonna make the semi finals, but

210
00:14:09,519 --> 00:14:14,159
they have great, amazing matches throughout. And that's something that

211
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:22,159
the aw fans appreciate. Like it's wins and losses matter,

212
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,080
but it's also performance.

213
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,679
Speaker 2: Like you know, you could have a guy.

214
00:14:28,519 --> 00:14:30,639
Speaker 3: Lose ten matches in a row, but if he's having

215
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:35,360
great matches and fighting hard throughout, the w fans are

216
00:14:35,399 --> 00:14:42,320
gonna appreciate that. Even you know, I said, even if

217
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,320
he loses his next two, they could be great matches

218
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,879
and he can still be a guy. That's like, Okay,

219
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,639
we know he can be top tier.

220
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,279
Speaker 2: Guys, right and not look like they're wrestling down to

221
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,200
have him win. I mean, I got the impression absolutely

222
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:03,679
the Kyle Fletch was giving his absolute best in that match,

223
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:09,200
as was Mike Bailey. Yeah, so, you know, I personally

224
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,919
don't believe that Mike Bailey is going to make the

225
00:15:11,919 --> 00:15:17,240
semi finals the Continental Classic, but I also believe that

226
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:23,120
he doesn't need to because he's already established himself with

227
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:27,840
one With that one match against Kyle Fletcher. I think

228
00:15:27,879 --> 00:15:30,759
that it is he's gotten a lot more notice from

229
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:36,200
fans than he ever could have against anybody else. And

230
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,120
that's a testament to Kyle Fletcher as well. I mean,

231
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:44,080
I think that he doesn't get enough credit, you know,

232
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:44,960
for what he does.

233
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, the chemistry between those two in that match

234
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:53,879
was freaking amazingly. They they felt they worked off of

235
00:15:53,919 --> 00:15:57,000
each other, and you know, they take each other freaking

236
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:03,480
everything in that match, Like, yeah, it takes two to tango,

237
00:16:03,559 --> 00:16:07,480
as they say. So, Yeah, how Fletcher definitely deserves its

238
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:09,759
flowers on that one as well.

239
00:16:09,799 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 2: I kind of want to segue into the next topic

240
00:16:12,039 --> 00:16:14,600
because Mike Bailey is one of the wrestlers that I

241
00:16:14,679 --> 00:16:19,399
consider part of this is that there are wrestlers that

242
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,960
have either proven their worth with AW or have had

243
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,799
long tenures in AW who have never had a belt. Now,

244
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,279
don't get me wrong, you know, I don't want people

245
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:34,440
coming after me saying a belt doesn't make the wrestler.

246
00:16:34,559 --> 00:16:38,399
I absolutely agree with that, but it is something that

247
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,399
you know what, I think every wrestler wants to have

248
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,440
a belt at some point, But there are wrestlers like

249
00:16:45,879 --> 00:16:49,600
if you're if you're watching this, the graphic has sky

250
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:55,000
Blue up there, who has been with AW for god

251
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:59,720
knows how long and uh has never had a belt

252
00:16:59,759 --> 00:17:03,519
around on her waist. Mike Bailey, Kevin Knight. I mean,

253
00:17:03,879 --> 00:17:07,240
what are some other men and women in AAW that

254
00:17:07,319 --> 00:17:09,640
have never had an AAW belt? I mean, I can

255
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,440
even put Athena in there. She's never had an AAW belt.

256
00:17:13,079 --> 00:17:15,400
She's had a ring of honor belt, but it's not

257
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,319
the same thing. It doesn't have the same prestige. I'm

258
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:23,039
sorry to insult anybody to thinks otherwise, but I personally

259
00:17:23,039 --> 00:17:25,440
do not believe that a ring of honor belt has

260
00:17:25,599 --> 00:17:31,119
carries the same weight as as an AAW belt. So

261
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,240
what are some other wrestlers that maybe being left behind,

262
00:17:34,319 --> 00:17:38,519
and then all of the wrestlers that maybe being left behind.

263
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,000
Which ones do you think may actually win a belt?

264
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:44,759
You know, in twenty twenty.

265
00:17:44,519 --> 00:17:47,599
Speaker 3: Six, Dark Orders should win the trio's titles.

266
00:17:48,039 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 2: Have they had a belt before? Though? That's the problem.

267
00:17:53,319 --> 00:17:57,759
I don't, I don't know. I mean, obviously Hangman, Anna

268
00:17:57,839 --> 00:18:01,400
Page Has, Brody Lee has. By the way, happy birthday,

269
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:02,680
mister Lee. We miss you.

270
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:04,920
Speaker 3: Thanks.

271
00:18:06,079 --> 00:18:09,759
Speaker 1: But what about John Silver? Like everybody was talking about

272
00:18:09,759 --> 00:18:12,359
how good and underrated he was for the longest time.

273
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:18,279
But has the Johnny Hungky ship sadly passed or do

274
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,880
you think he still like deserves.

275
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:26,279
Speaker 3: More Dark Order? I'm talking about the current trio Evil Uno,

276
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:32,279
Stu Grayson. Oh sorry, I wish he was back, Evil Youno,

277
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:36,920
John Silver, Alex Brims. Yeah, they've neither one of them

278
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,240
have ever held a title in a w and I've

279
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:45,680
long said the trio division needs to be reworked. You need,

280
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,759
you know, real trios and make it the fun title.

281
00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:57,079
Make it, you know, one that's regularly defended. Use guys

282
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:00,519
that don't have anything to do. You've can have some

283
00:19:00,559 --> 00:19:03,079
short range, you can have some long range. You can

284
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,880
do a lot of stuff with it, but we got

285
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:11,200
to get it on like a real trio, not you know,

286
00:19:11,559 --> 00:19:16,400
a guy that's also world champion. Nothing. I like them.

287
00:19:16,519 --> 00:19:21,799
I just wish the trios titles were doing something else

288
00:19:21,839 --> 00:19:24,640
and actually matters right now, because.

289
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean, I'm sure I'll reiterate it briefly,

290
00:19:30,279 --> 00:19:33,079
but I do not believe that AW should have a

291
00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,559
trios titles. I think those should be exclusive to Ringabater

292
00:19:36,839 --> 00:19:37,319
fair enough.

293
00:19:37,759 --> 00:19:40,759
Speaker 3: I'm a big fan of six man tag matches, you know.

294
00:19:40,799 --> 00:19:43,400
I think they can be a lot of fun and

295
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,680
you know, when done well, and it could be one

296
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:52,599
of those I think the division could be something right

297
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,319
there middle of the show, you know that the fans

298
00:19:56,319 --> 00:20:00,599
can enjoy have some fun with and lee room for

299
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:07,480
bigger matches, you know, Like the trios titles are mid

300
00:20:07,559 --> 00:20:12,160
card low lower mid belts, they're.

301
00:20:11,519 --> 00:20:14,279
Speaker 2: They're they're low card, they're not even they're not big card.

302
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:19,599
Speaker 3: I would say they Okay, they should be mid to

303
00:20:19,759 --> 00:20:24,200
low right there, middle of the show. Fun matches with

304
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:29,920
you know, crazy trios like the Dark Order. I'm not

305
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,440
a fan of them, but they're good. Heels. The frat

306
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,920
House Shane Taylor Promotions exactly.

307
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 2: But but that's the reason why I'm saying the good

308
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,880
actual trios teams, even the Dark Order, have been on

309
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,359
Ring of Honor more often than not the Frat House

310
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:52,000
Ring of Honor, Shane Taylor Promotions Ring of Honor. I mean,

311
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,920
all of the good trios teams that are actually teams

312
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:59,559
are on Ring of Honor. That's why I'm saying it

313
00:20:59,599 --> 00:21:03,079
should the six band tag titles, because that's what they

314
00:21:03,079 --> 00:21:04,559
call it on Ring of Honor. It don't call it

315
00:21:04,559 --> 00:21:07,640
the Trios titles. They should be exclusive to Ring Him Honor,

316
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:12,200
in my opinion, and just eradicate them completely from AW.

317
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,279
Speaker 3: I'd rather just have one pair, you know, of trios

318
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:19,319
titles and just have them on. You know, you can

319
00:21:19,319 --> 00:21:21,920
feature him mostly on Ring of Honor, but then you

320
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,599
can bring him on, you know, Tellision when you need,

321
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,559
you know, title mass to add to the show.

322
00:21:30,839 --> 00:21:36,759
Speaker 2: Sure, Jess, do you have any any opinions about this? I?

323
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:41,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, and now I could be wrong, Please correct me.

324
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,640
If he's held one before. Sometimes it's hard to keep

325
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:50,279
track because AW does have a lot of belts. Has

326
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,279
Kyle O'Reilly held the title yet?

327
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,920
Speaker 2: God, that's a good question. I want to say he has.

328
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:57,559
I don't know why I want to say he has,

329
00:21:57,599 --> 00:21:58,400
but I want to say he.

330
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 1: Has if he should, and he's shown.

331
00:22:03,559 --> 00:22:07,519
Speaker 2: I think wasn't didn't he? And maybe it was Adam Cole,

332
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,519
Kyle O'Reilly and Roderick Strong held the trio's titles at

333
00:22:10,519 --> 00:22:10,880
one point.

334
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 3: I don't know, I think, so, you know, I got

335
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:15,839
to look for something now.

336
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that that's a good that's a good person

337
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:24,200
that you're talking about there, regardless. I mean, it doesn't

338
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,799
even necessarily have to be somebody that has not had

339
00:22:26,839 --> 00:22:30,359
a title, but it could be somebody like Kyle O'Reilly,

340
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,319
where we think, hey, did he have a title? Because

341
00:22:34,519 --> 00:22:38,400
if we don't know, it's kind of hard to say,

342
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,880
you know, it's it's hard to justify it. I don't know,

343
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:43,920
did you find anything out?

344
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:48,839
Speaker 3: Chris also, uh, yeah, he has not held a title

345
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:56,440
in a he he did win the Men's Casino Battle

346
00:22:56,599 --> 00:22:58,200
Royal in twenty twenty two.

347
00:22:58,319 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 2: But yeah, that's yeah, yeah, So.

348
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 1: All right, my point stands, Then give Kyle O'Reilly a title.

349
00:23:04,559 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 2: Or title push. I mean, they don't even necessarily have

350
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,000
to have a title, but they should have a legitimate title.

351
00:23:10,039 --> 00:23:13,640
Push Again, sky Blue is a good example on the

352
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,680
women's side. Of course, on the women's side you could

353
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:22,119
even say uh Tamello and a j uh women like that.

354
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,480
On the men's side, there's plenty of men like uh.

355
00:23:26,839 --> 00:23:30,599
By the way to blade is his back. He did

356
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,440
wrestle this past weekend, not for aw but he's working

357
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,559
his way back, which is good to see. Uh, But

358
00:23:37,759 --> 00:23:39,200
there's so many guys.

359
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know who I think deserves a singles title.

360
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,200
I know he's held the trios title, but I think

361
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:51,599
uh Claudio Casting Nola should definitely be in the consideration

362
00:23:51,799 --> 00:23:54,599
for some singles belt, right.

363
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,839
Speaker 2: I mean he is the current CMLL World Heavyweight Champion.

364
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:04,759
He is uh wrestling and defending that championship on Friday

365
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:10,160
night at nine thirty pm Eastern Time in Arena, Mexico

366
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,720
on Triller TV. And I said Cheler TV because I

367
00:24:14,799 --> 00:24:19,440
posted it on the aw fand a X account earlier today.

368
00:24:20,279 --> 00:24:23,519
Ed Triller, I call, I said that it was on Triller.

369
00:24:24,039 --> 00:24:29,039
Ed Triller actually corrected me. So, I guess that's one

370
00:24:29,079 --> 00:24:32,119
way to get somebody to respond to you by not

371
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,880
putting TV at the end of the name. It's kind

372
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,720
of like if I just called Johnny TV Johnny, he

373
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,519
may respond to me, but anyway, it will be on

374
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:45,200
Chuler TV. Seven ninety nine is the costs and it

375
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,119
is English commentary on Triller. If you are already a

376
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:55,160
member of the cmlll YouTube channel and have the correct tier,

377
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:58,839
then you will be able to watch it on the

378
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,039
CMLL you YouTube channel as you can watch all of

379
00:25:02,079 --> 00:25:06,240
their shows, but you will not get it in English commentary.

380
00:25:06,279 --> 00:25:10,839
It will be Spanish only commentary on the CMLL YouTube channel.

381
00:25:10,839 --> 00:25:12,920
If you want to get it on English commentary at

382
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,119
the pay of seven ninety nine and watch it at

383
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,279
nine thirty pm on sue Er TV. And I believe

384
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,000
Speedball Speedball Mike Bailey is also going to be on

385
00:25:22,039 --> 00:25:27,079
the show and a few others from AW so you

386
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,279
know you will be able to see some a w

387
00:25:29,279 --> 00:25:34,039
wrestlers on the show as well. No women's matches, which

388
00:25:34,079 --> 00:25:39,960
is very unusual for CMLL. But anyway, but that that's

389
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,960
that was a good that was a good person. Uh yeah, Claudio,

390
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,400
he has I believe he has had the Trios titles though, right.

391
00:25:47,519 --> 00:25:50,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, like you know, just

392
00:25:50,839 --> 00:25:53,640
though again, I don't even consider somebody that has a

393
00:25:53,799 --> 00:25:57,559
has hell held a Trios title is actually having held

394
00:25:58,079 --> 00:26:02,400
a title because those titles are those titles are left behind,

395
00:26:02,839 --> 00:26:05,440
you know, they're they're not defended regularly.

396
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:12,039
Speaker 2: So there it is again. I'll say it again last time.

397
00:26:12,079 --> 00:26:15,960
I swear they should be r O H exclusive titles,

398
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,559
six man tags. Get rid of the trio's titles. In

399
00:26:18,599 --> 00:26:23,000
aw there's no need for them. There's no need for them.

400
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 1: Also one more one more mentioned. I know he's injured

401
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,839
right now and it's sort of if he whether he'll

402
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,680
even be back at all, but uh coda abushi.

403
00:26:35,319 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, yeah, I agree with you there. I mean,

404
00:26:43,279 --> 00:26:45,680
there's a lot of them. There really is. When you

405
00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,839
think about it, you'd be surprised. If you go up

406
00:26:47,839 --> 00:26:50,680
and down the roster page there are. And again I'm

407
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,640
not saying that titles are important. Titles do not make

408
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:57,680
the wrestler, but I do think that having a run

409
00:26:57,799 --> 00:27:05,400
at a title at least does make the wrestler. Nods.

410
00:27:07,039 --> 00:27:10,720
Dan Housen has that Housen if he did come back

411
00:27:10,759 --> 00:27:14,559
to a W it did wrestle wrestle again? What do

412
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,680
you how many wrestling matches did he have at a

413
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,119
W six Maybe.

414
00:27:19,519 --> 00:27:21,759
Speaker 3: I think it was a few more than that, But

415
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:27,799
like it was mostly six and eight man's hands. I

416
00:27:27,799 --> 00:27:32,160
feel like he's one of those characters who you like

417
00:27:32,279 --> 00:27:39,000
to see a like a monthly show, but every week

418
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:43,240
it's like, Okay, it was funny the first few times,

419
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,799
but I need a little break from you.

420
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wasn't being serious. I I do like Dan Housen.

421
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,880
I think he's a delight his watching his YouTube channel

422
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,039
is an instant thing to cheer yourself up.

423
00:27:56,119 --> 00:28:02,799
Speaker 3: But no, I like he's a you know, he's solid

424
00:28:02,839 --> 00:28:05,319
in the ring and when he does, you know, do

425
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,440
the more like serious stuff, you know, and really wrestles.

426
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:15,480
He stood, and the character is fun seeing here and there,

427
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:20,319
Like you know, if he shows up this week, don't

428
00:28:20,319 --> 00:28:24,200
have him show up next week, or you know, he's

429
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,599
not a main character. I guess I would say.

430
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:33,920
Speaker 2: Well, there's all, but there's also you know, not that Look,

431
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,200
they're not getting any younger, but they're not really getting

432
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:43,680
any older either, and that's the outrunners they need. I

433
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:47,279
would mind seeing them again, not necessarily get a belt,

434
00:28:47,359 --> 00:28:51,279
but at least be a serious contender for a belt.

435
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,319
And what I mean by serious contender them and them

436
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:58,480
alone against the champions. I don't I'm not a fan

437
00:28:59,119 --> 00:29:01,920
of the Three Ways is Look tomorrow night on Dynamite,

438
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:08,240
we're getting the three way contract signing between what a Hangman,

439
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:12,359
Ani Page, Square Strickland, and Samoa Joe. I have zero

440
00:29:12,519 --> 00:29:16,839
interest in this match, none whatsoever. I really don't have

441
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:21,519
any interest in it because it's so overdone. It's senseless.

442
00:29:21,559 --> 00:29:26,720
It doesn't make you know, And it's a contract signing too.

443
00:29:27,839 --> 00:29:29,920
We're having a contract signing for a match that I

444
00:29:30,079 --> 00:29:33,079
don't really I'm not really fired up about it. I mean,

445
00:29:33,119 --> 00:29:36,359
I'll watch it, but I'm not really fired up about it.

446
00:29:36,559 --> 00:29:38,200
I mean, I hope it's a good match, and I

447
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,119
hope it gives me say, oh, I wasn't expecting that,

448
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,680
and I'm all for that. I would love to be surprised,

449
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,079
but going into it, I just like, okay, another one

450
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:47,480
of these.

451
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,200
Speaker 3: I think. I think their first match was really good,

452
00:29:52,319 --> 00:29:56,960
really interesting, and I think with the new wrinkle when

453
00:29:57,079 --> 00:30:03,200
the Hangman's swerve story is like they're they're definitely not friends,

454
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:08,200
but they've kind of like not really buried the hatchet,

455
00:30:08,359 --> 00:30:11,319
but they've at least dug the hole for it.

456
00:30:12,279 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think, Well, we'll talk about that match at

457
00:30:17,039 --> 00:30:22,720
length when we do our World's End Prediction Show, which

458
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:27,680
will be next Tuesday night, I believe right by the way,

459
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:33,279
By the way, that kind of brings me to the

460
00:30:33,319 --> 00:30:40,319
next segment. Look, World's End is the twenty seventh. It's

461
00:30:40,319 --> 00:30:46,519
the sixteenth. World's End is the twenty seventh, right, yes, yeah,

462
00:30:46,759 --> 00:30:49,240
it's the sixteenth. How many matches we have for World's End?

463
00:30:49,599 --> 00:30:54,200
We've got the quarterfinal, two semifinal matches for the Continent,

464
00:30:54,319 --> 00:30:57,680
the Classic plus the finals, so that's three. We've got

465
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:04,519
Chris stat Lander against uh oh god, who's Jamie Hayter.

466
00:31:04,759 --> 00:31:11,359
That's four. And we've got the World Championship match that

467
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,440
we were just talking about. That's five matches. I don't

468
00:31:15,559 --> 00:31:17,200
do we don't have We don't have any other matches

469
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:17,799
set up, do we?

470
00:31:19,119 --> 00:31:19,359
Speaker 3: No?

471
00:31:20,319 --> 00:31:20,799
Speaker 5: I am.

472
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 3: I would bet money that we get a eight man

473
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:32,400
all star tag between the with the wrestlers who didn't

474
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,119
make it into the semifinals. It happened last year. I

475
00:31:36,359 --> 00:31:38,599
see no reason not to do it again this year.

476
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 2: Right. Oh? You know what about They're doing the Dynamite

477
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,240
Diamond Ring Battle Royal tomorrow night and the last two

478
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,480
that remain are having a match. Is that a World's

479
00:31:49,559 --> 00:31:55,240
End match? Or is that the next week week. Okay, yeah,

480
00:31:55,960 --> 00:32:02,279
all right, so there's that, but that's not World's end.

481
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,319
It's just weird because I'm sure we may get a

482
00:32:08,279 --> 00:32:14,119
challengers for the Women's World Championship of the Tag Titles

483
00:32:15,079 --> 00:32:22,839
against the Baby I'm sure, and we'll probably get something

484
00:32:22,839 --> 00:32:23,680
with Mark Briscoe.

485
00:32:25,599 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 3: I can see open challenge.

486
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,559
Speaker 2: Right, yeah, we may see something with you know. So

487
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,880
we are going to have matches. But the thing is

488
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,119
is that well, the Continental Classic is going to take

489
00:32:38,119 --> 00:32:41,000
color care of itself as far as the story goes there,

490
00:32:41,039 --> 00:32:45,960
because the story is the storytelling in the ring. They

491
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,400
really don't need any setup because the matches are to

492
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:53,480
set up. They do need to do something between Jamie

493
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:58,920
Hater and Chris Statlander because right now they're too chummy

494
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:04,160
in my opinionion. They do need to come up with

495
00:33:04,279 --> 00:33:07,279
something for the Babies rat. They need to come up

496
00:33:07,319 --> 00:33:09,599
with something for Mark Briscoe. They need to come up

497
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:14,839
with something, you know, from Mercedes Monett. Probably there's just

498
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:19,160
too many open ends and there's no story. They're literally

499
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,640
when you say, okay, what's Mark Briscoe's story, there is none.

500
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,200
What's Mercedes monett story? There is none.

501
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,519
Speaker 1: She slowly milks I don't think that way.

502
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,799
Speaker 2: I don't think that way. People are like, well it

503
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,359
started the the uh you know, she's gonna lose all

504
00:33:34,359 --> 00:33:36,240
of her belts all at once. I don't think that's

505
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:37,640
gonna happen. I really don't.

506
00:33:37,839 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 1: I mean, she lost one and did not take it

507
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,240
very well. It's only gonna get worse these keys.

508
00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, but she's you know, she she defended what three

509
00:33:49,759 --> 00:33:53,519
titles over the weekend and retained all three of them.

510
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:58,519
Speaker 3: So yeah, I think she's going to half of Milltown.

511
00:33:58,599 --> 00:34:03,160
But it's not gonna be this so like just crazy

512
00:34:03,319 --> 00:34:05,200
fast knows.

513
00:34:05,039 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 2: No rights exact.

514
00:34:07,519 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 3: Like, she's not going to lose another title for probably

515
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:17,639
you know, I think revolution she can lose the TBS

516
00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:20,079
title Vaders, you.

517
00:34:20,039 --> 00:34:22,679
Speaker 2: Know, right, No, no, no, I agree with you.

518
00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 3: And from there, you know, probably another couple of months

519
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:32,159
he loses the title, and then maybe she has a

520
00:34:32,199 --> 00:34:34,280
string of bad luck where she loses like three in

521
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:38,480
a row within like a month. But it's not just

522
00:34:38,519 --> 00:34:40,920
going to happen like boom boom boom boom boom, right

523
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,159
titles by the end of the year.

524
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah. The way I describe it, Chris, is like

525
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,840
it's not gonna happen. It's gonna have a trickle down effect,

526
00:34:50,119 --> 00:34:51,880
but it's not going to be an avalanche.

527
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:58,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's going to still like because she's still so

528
00:34:58,599 --> 00:35:05,039
damn talent. She's going to keep defending titles until she

529
00:35:05,199 --> 00:35:09,559
comes up against those really big tests, and a lot

530
00:35:09,599 --> 00:35:13,840
of them are going to be against people she already like, yeah, people.

531
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 2: Who learned.

532
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 3: And now she's getting talky that because she thinks she

533
00:35:21,519 --> 00:35:23,960
was already so much better but doesn't realize how much

534
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,400
better they've gotten right now.

535
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 2: She just defended I can't I don't even know. I

536
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:33,320
know she defended the the undisputed British Championship, that was

537
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,440
the main belt that she was defending in Cardiff, Wales.

538
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:40,360
And when when they announced that match against Rio, not

539
00:35:40,599 --> 00:35:44,599
Rio from aaw but Rio. Uh and if you're not

540
00:35:44,599 --> 00:35:48,599
familiar with Rio, she is a beast. When they announced

541
00:35:48,639 --> 00:35:52,800
that match, this is well before the matches with Red

542
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,599
Velvet and all that, I was like pointing at that

543
00:35:56,679 --> 00:35:59,599
as like that's where she's going to lose one of

544
00:35:59,639 --> 00:36:03,320
her belt is against Rio. But that didn't happen. She

545
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:08,199
ended up losing the belt against Red Velvet, and I

546
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,719
was kind of pleased that she retained against Rio because

547
00:36:12,559 --> 00:36:15,159
I really don't want to see her lose these belts

548
00:36:16,039 --> 00:36:18,000
in the avalanche style.

549
00:36:18,199 --> 00:36:19,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, completely agree with you.

550
00:36:21,039 --> 00:36:23,840
Speaker 2: I want to move on because we had already mentioned this,

551
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:28,360
the Dynamite Diamond Battle Royal. Do you guys see MGF

552
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,119
coming back for this tomorrow night?

553
00:36:31,679 --> 00:36:33,639
Speaker 3: Yes? Yes, Why wouldn't he?

554
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 1: That's his whole thing.

555
00:36:35,079 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 3: I really hope so. Like I mean, but realistically, he

556
00:36:39,039 --> 00:36:42,719
shouldn't need to be in the Battle Royal. The winner

557
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,239
of the Battle Royal should have to face him for

558
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:50,480
the ring. It's his ring, Like, they can't just take

559
00:36:50,519 --> 00:36:51,400
it away from him.

560
00:36:51,519 --> 00:36:53,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they do that all the time. I mean,

561
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,920
look at the Continental Classic.

562
00:36:56,199 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, think of the ring as an annually defended miniature

563
00:37:00,119 --> 00:37:04,440
belt whinter the Battle Royal gets the ring. MGF just

564
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:06,519
happens to win it every year and it's sort of

565
00:37:06,519 --> 00:37:09,400
become his signature weapon. But that doesn't mean he's guaranteed

566
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:10,239
to keep it forever.

567
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:12,159
Speaker 3: Well, he better this year.

568
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, but here's the thing, he's already gone. Remember he

569
00:37:15,159 --> 00:37:18,159
still has this contract that he hasn't executed yet that

570
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:22,280
he needs to use seven days in advance if he

571
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:28,960
wins the Diamond. Uh. The Dynamite Diamond Battle Royal. Well,

572
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,519
if he's one of the last two, then he wrestles

573
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:35,559
to become the number one to win the ring and

574
00:37:35,599 --> 00:37:37,639
become the number one contender. Isn't that correct?

575
00:37:39,119 --> 00:37:44,519
Speaker 1: Yes, well, then he wouldn't. Then he wouldn't need to

576
00:37:44,599 --> 00:37:48,519
use his contract. He wants to avoid using that thing

577
00:37:48,559 --> 00:37:50,159
if at all possible, because his.

578
00:37:50,119 --> 00:37:56,159
Speaker 3: Insurance post thing to do. Win the Diamond Dynamite Battle Royal,

579
00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:02,559
go into his title match, just kick whoever's the champion

580
00:38:03,039 --> 00:38:06,519
right in the ditch, take the DQ and then just

581
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:11,599
beat the ever loving wrapout of them, almost break their arm,

582
00:38:12,039 --> 00:38:14,480
and then sign the contract and demand the match for

583
00:38:14,559 --> 00:38:15,119
next week.

584
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,280
Speaker 1: That sounds like a very Max plan.

585
00:38:19,119 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of Max, let's talk about Max Caster and

586
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:27,039
UH and Anthony Bowens. I mean, they've been pretty much

587
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:35,360
for some reason, for some reason, I would be surprised

588
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,719
if both of them were the last two standing because

589
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,639
of everything that's happened leading up to this.

590
00:38:41,039 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 3: It's a weird final four and take each other out.

591
00:38:44,119 --> 00:38:46,639
Speaker 2: I don't know, but they need to rekindle that love

592
00:38:46,679 --> 00:38:53,599
affair because everybody loves the acclaimed scissor. That just that

593
00:38:53,639 --> 00:39:01,000
did not sound right. No, but i'd I need a minute.

594
00:39:01,559 --> 00:39:07,519
Somebody talked I need to go take a cold shower. Well, look,

595
00:39:07,679 --> 00:39:09,760
I mean, we've got a lot to talk about in

596
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:13,800
the pot pourrix section, so I want to go to that. Uh.

597
00:39:14,599 --> 00:39:17,480
I know that Chris you had one, and I know

598
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:22,480
Jess had a pot pourri. So let's hear what you've

599
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:23,159
got me.

600
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:27,679
Speaker 1: Okay, preface by saying, I'm pretty sure that everyone every

601
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:32,679
wrestling fan has one favorite from back in the day

602
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:37,639
that's like their guy or lady. But seeing as how

603
00:39:37,679 --> 00:39:41,639
back in the day was probably guy, mine happens to

604
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:45,239
be Nick Foley. I have loved Mix since I was

605
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,760
a kid. I pretty much have his entire collection of

606
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:58,639
autobiographies great reads. Anyway, Mick is currently as of right

607
00:39:58,679 --> 00:40:02,199
now this minute, signed with WWT for a Legends deal

608
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,440
will end in the spring Mike's own choice.

609
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:08,079
Speaker 5: Dude.

610
00:40:08,199 --> 00:40:12,679
Speaker 1: Yes, Mick is is letting his Legends deal lapse and

611
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:17,280
refuses to sign another as long as the current administration

612
00:40:17,559 --> 00:40:22,519
is in power because he is fed up with how

613
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:28,400
morally downhill ww is gone, and in his words, quoting Popeye,

614
00:40:28,599 --> 00:40:30,920
He's had all he can stands and he can't stand

615
00:40:31,079 --> 00:40:36,559
no more. I people say, don't meet your heroes. But

616
00:40:36,679 --> 00:40:38,639
I would meet Nick any day of the week. He

617
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,400
just just consistently proven to be just an absolutely great guy.

618
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, this has been a big talking point today.

619
00:40:50,079 --> 00:40:53,360
We made a post about it on aw Fan, We

620
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:58,400
made a post about it on greadest Wrestling. The reactions

621
00:40:58,440 --> 00:41:01,519
are bad about what you would expect. A lot of

622
00:41:01,559 --> 00:41:06,039
people saying, goodbye, Mick, don't let the door hit you

623
00:41:06,079 --> 00:41:09,239
on your way, you know, not to wait out the door,

624
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:13,280
don't whatever, you know it's and then some people were saying,

625
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,159
like you said, he was. He's always been one of

626
00:41:15,159 --> 00:41:18,039
my favorites, you know, and I respect him, you know,

627
00:41:18,159 --> 00:41:20,239
even if I may not agree with him, I still

628
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:27,920
respect respect him. I don't know. I really don't want

629
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,920
to get into the politics of it, but I mean,

630
00:41:31,639 --> 00:41:38,760
here's what I think. Why wait until now to do this?

631
00:41:39,159 --> 00:41:43,280
Should have done this ages and ages ago. Now. He

632
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:50,280
may may have made his intentions known months ago, but

633
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:53,000
why wait until now to do this. I don't know

634
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:54,159
how you guys feel about that.

635
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:59,840
Speaker 1: I have my theory. I don't I don't know how

636
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:02,320
much which I should elaborate given as sort of a

637
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:08,800
sensitive topic. But let's just say something happened very very recently.

638
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:10,519
That may have been the straw broke.

639
00:42:10,639 --> 00:42:12,519
Speaker 2: Well, he said that that was the straw that broke

640
00:42:12,559 --> 00:42:15,559
the Campbell's back. There's no way if answer butts about it.

641
00:42:15,639 --> 00:42:19,000
There's no may about it. He did say that Donald

642
00:42:19,079 --> 00:42:23,119
Trump's comments about the murder of.

643
00:42:24,599 --> 00:42:27,760
Speaker 3: Uh Rob.

644
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:34,280
Speaker 2: Yea was what broke This was the straw that broke

645
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:37,639
the camel's back. So there's no if ans or butts

646
00:42:37,639 --> 00:42:40,440
about it. That's what did it. But my point is

647
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:44,199
is that and I don't look. I avoid the news

648
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:48,320
like a plague because to me, everything on the news

649
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:52,119
is stupidity. It's beneath me. And I hate to say

650
00:42:52,159 --> 00:42:57,000
that about you know, our government, our everything, but it's

651
00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,440
to me, the news is more like a pot cast.

652
00:43:00,519 --> 00:43:03,079
To me, it's a bunch of talking heads out there.

653
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:07,679
It's pewing stuff about stuff that's happened without actually reporting

654
00:43:07,679 --> 00:43:09,599
the news. They're reporting their opinions.

655
00:43:10,159 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 3: So probably would have been camel back for me.

656
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:19,679
Speaker 2: Yeah. But alls I'm saying is that again, what what

657
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,440
the current administration said about Rob Reiner.

658
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 3: It was was stupid as hell.

659
00:43:26,119 --> 00:43:30,119
Speaker 2: But this is not anything new. This isn't a long

660
00:43:30,199 --> 00:43:32,400
line of stuff that's stupid as hell. And I'm not

661
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:36,599
talking really about Donald Trumper the administration because when it

662
00:43:36,599 --> 00:43:39,480
comes to politics, everything that's said pretty much has been

663
00:43:39,559 --> 00:43:44,239
stupid as hell. It's it's playground stuff. I mean it's

664
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,800
for years, you know, That's all I'm saying. Is that?

665
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:52,760
Why wait until now when stupid as hell has been

666
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:54,159
going on for quite a while?

667
00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:57,079
Speaker 1: Now, I know what I agree.

668
00:43:59,199 --> 00:44:03,199
Speaker 2: Okay, you're just pixelated like crazy. You can't understand the

669
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,119
word you're saying. Well, you may have to you may

670
00:44:06,159 --> 00:44:08,239
have to reboot. You can't really tell better now on

671
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:13,679
two words? Okay, Chris, did you have a potpourri?

672
00:44:15,119 --> 00:44:19,199
Speaker 3: I mean just kind of the general New Japan round up,

673
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,400
you know, since they are a a W partner and

674
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:28,440
not all of the fans, well go in. Hopefully, hopefully

675
00:44:28,440 --> 00:44:31,679
I can wrap it up interesting enough. World Tag League

676
00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:38,079
over Rio, Hey, Olila, I struggle with his name, I apologize,

677
00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:43,840
and Zach Sapertun you have one. Surprisingly, they are taking

678
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,320
their title match at New Year's ash instead of the

679
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:50,400
Tokyo Dome, which New Japan is currently on the road too,

680
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:55,480
with shows on the nineteenth, twenty first, and twenty second,

681
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,960
all on New Japan World nineteenth and twenty first Japan

682
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:05,920
Live commentary English too, twenty second live English commentary from

683
00:45:06,159 --> 00:45:10,360
Chris Child, and then it's onto the Tokyo Dome for

684
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:12,920
Wrestle Kingdom. That's it.

685
00:45:13,079 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 2: Okay. I've got like two or three things and I

686
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,320
want to bring up and I think they're kind of fun. Well,

687
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,400
the first one kind of goes back to what Jess

688
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:24,960
said Jim Cornett, and I can't believe I'm bringing Jim

689
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:31,400
Cornett up on this podcast because the guy's a tool.

690
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:36,280
But he did say regarding Mick Foley, he said that

691
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:37,880
this is what he well, he didn't say it, he

692
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,679
posted it. I don't think McK foley's on Twitter or

693
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,880
I tag him, but I want to state publicly that

694
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:47,400
while I've always liked him, he has just become my

695
00:45:47,559 --> 00:45:50,639
favorite person in the world. I wish all the boys

696
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:56,360
had his backbone and more importantly, his morals, to which

697
00:45:57,039 --> 00:46:03,719
Ricochet responded saying something that a lot of people probably

698
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:08,119
want to say but are too embarrassed to say. Ricochet responded,

699
00:46:08,679 --> 00:46:13,559
I honestly never thought I'd agree with this loser. I

700
00:46:13,639 --> 00:46:16,920
just thought that was funny.

701
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:18,840
Speaker 3: You know what they'll say, even a broken clock is

702
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:19,880
right twice the day.

703
00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:22,599
Speaker 2: There you go, there you go.

704
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:29,719
Speaker 3: I mean that that's pretty much like General Stan Saloon Pournette.

705
00:46:31,519 --> 00:46:38,000
Eight percent of what he says regarding current wrestling, I ignore,

706
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:45,079
great historian now, great manager in his day. Respect for that, pharoh,

707
00:46:45,199 --> 00:46:49,239
respect for his opinion on current wrestling, well not zero

708
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,800
but like two percent, you know whatever.

709
00:46:54,599 --> 00:46:58,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's the epitome of old man yells its.

710
00:46:58,079 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I agree with anything whatever she just said, because

711
00:47:09,119 --> 00:47:12,920
you're totally I can't understand anything you're saying. Yes. Sorry.

712
00:47:13,679 --> 00:47:16,480
Another thing that came out, but this one was from

713
00:47:16,519 --> 00:47:22,320
Fiteful said that one source at a W told Fifel

714
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:27,559
they expected Steve Borton Jr. That's Sting's son, to be

715
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:32,119
under a W contract before long, if he's not already.

716
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:40,079
So Sting's son, Stephen Steve Borton Junior did perform uh

717
00:47:42,199 --> 00:47:47,719
like on a dark match last week against Kieren Gray

718
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:54,719
and according to to Uh to to uh, I'm sorry,

719
00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:59,519
but according to Tony Kahan, he just gushed about him.

720
00:47:59,559 --> 00:48:03,719
So that was something that was very very good to hear.

721
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:07,880
And it would be cool to see to see Steve

722
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:14,039
Bordon Jr. In AW, possibly as under Darby Allen's wing,

723
00:48:14,119 --> 00:48:15,599
does Darby is the one that's training him.

724
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:20,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if he makes like regular

725
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,679
Dark appearances during their residency in Arlington.

726
00:48:25,840 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 2: I think they.

727
00:48:27,079 --> 00:48:30,400
Speaker 3: I don't think they live like crazy close, but it's

728
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,199
close enough where he can come up every week for

729
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:36,079
those shows. So yeah, I wouldn't be surprised to see him.

730
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:41,679
So maybe a random TV apparent that'd.

731
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:46,400
Speaker 2: Be nice, even if it's just a run in and uh,

732
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:52,840
you know, to save Darby from himself even Yeah, you know,

733
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:58,559
another interesting topic, and this is something that that I

734
00:48:58,599 --> 00:49:04,079
am really happy about. Well, in the fifty two years

735
00:49:04,519 --> 00:49:09,000
that Tokyo Sports has been giving out their MVP award,

736
00:49:09,519 --> 00:49:14,679
no woman has ever won the award until this year.

737
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:23,880
Ayakamaani from Stardom is Tokyo Sports MVP. She not only

738
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:29,559
won the Women's MVP, she won the overall MVP, becoming

739
00:49:29,599 --> 00:49:34,000
the first woman in the fifty two years of that

740
00:49:35,039 --> 00:49:40,199
award to win the award. And that's saying something, especially

741
00:49:41,119 --> 00:49:41,679
in Japan.

742
00:49:43,119 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 3: Oh hell yeah, you know, especially when you think of

743
00:49:47,159 --> 00:49:52,440
like back in the seventies and eighties, you know, women's

744
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:57,159
wrestling in Japan was freaking better than pretty much every

745
00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:01,960
men's promotion. They were doing amazing thing that's coming up

746
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,880
with all sorts of news. The fact that none of

747
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,840
them ever won it, it just makes it that much

748
00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:13,719
more historic, Like you think of who could have won, right,

749
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:18,000
and the fact that she's the first and it's well earned.

750
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:21,760
Speaker 2: It really is well earned. I mean, if you don't

751
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,800
know who Saya Kamentani is, she's in the faction called eight,

752
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:30,039
which is the same faction that Tecla came out of

753
00:50:30,119 --> 00:50:36,599
before she came to AW. She's in. Another name that

754
00:50:36,679 --> 00:50:39,400
you probably would know if you're an AW fan is

755
00:50:40,159 --> 00:50:46,039
Momo Watanabe, who did wrestle against Mercedes Monet last year

756
00:50:46,199 --> 00:50:50,559
for the TBS Championship at a paper. Really can't remember

757
00:50:50,599 --> 00:50:53,159
which one it was off the top of my head,

758
00:50:53,199 --> 00:50:56,639
but she did lose, but it was a really good match. Actually,

759
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:58,920
I think that was probably one of the first matches

760
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,360
that people at AW took notice and say, hey, this

761
00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:06,199
Mercedes boney chick isn't too bad. And that was brought

762
00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:10,960
out of her by Baba Watanabe. But my point is

763
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:15,039
is that when you look the big difference between stardom

764
00:51:15,039 --> 00:51:19,840
and a w and stardom in WWE is that Stardom

765
00:51:20,039 --> 00:51:26,559
is a women's only promotion, so that in and of itself,

766
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:29,159
you know, you don't have to compete against the men

767
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:33,559
for bringtime. You're going to get your ring time, and

768
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,880
boy do they get their ringtime. Because I looked it

769
00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:42,360
up about a month ago, and at the time that

770
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:46,480
I looked it up, Tony Storm and Mercedes Monette. If

771
00:51:46,519 --> 00:51:50,039
you added all of their matches in twenty twenty five together,

772
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:57,599
it came to just over how many matches that Saya

773
00:51:57,639 --> 00:52:01,599
Kamatani had by yourself. So you're looking at, you know,

774
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:06,880
a woman in Saya Kamatani that's averaging wrestling just under

775
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:10,559
every like just I mean just over. When I looked

776
00:52:10,559 --> 00:52:13,400
at it, I think it's every three point two days

777
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:20,000
she has a wrestling match, and that's tough. That is

778
00:52:20,039 --> 00:52:23,639
a lot of wrestling matches. Well, I believe.

779
00:52:25,079 --> 00:52:27,679
Speaker 3: There are a lot of times with the Japanese promotions

780
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:31,719
it'll be like you could have three matches back to

781
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:35,239
back to back and then take a day off have

782
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:41,480
two more like the tours they run. Is saying schedule, really,

783
00:52:41,599 --> 00:52:45,719
you're yeah, it's every three point two, but it's because

784
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:48,239
you'll wrestle three days, have a day off wrestle, to

785
00:52:49,079 --> 00:52:51,960
have a day off wrestle to you know, have a

786
00:52:52,039 --> 00:52:55,960
day off, wrestle another three and then have like a

787
00:52:56,039 --> 00:53:00,159
week to ten days off. So like when when you

788
00:53:00,199 --> 00:53:02,679
think of that too, it makes how many matches she's

789
00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:04,320
had even that much.

790
00:53:04,159 --> 00:53:11,880
Speaker 2: More right, Yeah, awesome? Yeah, and they have relatively few injuries.

791
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:14,639
I mean it's not just Syakonatandi that does this. When

792
00:53:14,679 --> 00:53:18,639
you look at Stardom and Marigold and t J p W,

793
00:53:18,639 --> 00:53:21,719
which are the three prominent I would most prominent, I

794
00:53:21,719 --> 00:53:27,320
would say Women's only wrestling promotions. They have a ton

795
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:32,599
of matches. These were working, they are working, So give

796
00:53:32,639 --> 00:53:36,480
them their flowers, you know, watch them, you know, make

797
00:53:36,559 --> 00:53:40,639
their make their time, and and they're good. And they're

798
00:53:40,679 --> 00:53:43,760
so good. Oh my god, they're good. They're so fun

799
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:48,239
to watch. The matches are. They're so fun. I'm never disappointed,

800
00:53:48,639 --> 00:53:53,079
which brings me to another prot PORI with Stardom, we

801
00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:59,320
have a uh, they're doing their dream queendom. I want

802
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:02,039
to I don't have to date right in front of me.

803
00:54:02,079 --> 00:54:05,760
I think it's on the twenty ninth of this month.

804
00:54:05,880 --> 00:54:07,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it is right.

805
00:54:08,079 --> 00:54:11,880
Speaker 2: But anyway, on the discord and if you're watching this,

806
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,599
you can see our discord link right there at the

807
00:54:15,599 --> 00:54:19,480
bottom of your screen. On our discord, we have in

808
00:54:19,599 --> 00:54:25,400
the in the actual discord, we have polls for the

809
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:32,199
Dream Queendom. It's the polls are in the uh Dream

810
00:54:32,639 --> 00:54:37,119
Dream Queendom Stardom channel and it has all the matches

811
00:54:37,159 --> 00:54:41,000
that have been announced thus far. You can vote, and

812
00:54:41,039 --> 00:54:44,400
then what we do is we will publish what everybody thinks.

813
00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:47,280
And it's it's a lot of fun because when it

814
00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:50,400
came to what was the last PvP for aw oh

815
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:54,280
my God with Full Gear. Yeah, we had the poll,

816
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:58,320
we had the polls up for Full Gear. We did horrible.

817
00:55:00,079 --> 00:55:04,360
We got destroyed. I think there was nine matches. I

818
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:08,360
think we got three right. It was just like unbelievable.

819
00:55:08,639 --> 00:55:11,440
Then we had Final Battle. We had polls up for

820
00:55:11,559 --> 00:55:16,280
Final Battle and we we nailed it. We got every

821
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:21,920
one of them right on the discord. So then we

822
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:27,199
of course we had we also do ww poles for

823
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:32,280
the for the NXT and Wwepolis. We will have a

824
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:38,000
poll up in a few days for Russell Kingdom twenty. Unfortunately,

825
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,639
the polls only can last the backs up of two weeks,

826
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,880
and the Russell Kingdom twenty is on the sixth of January.

827
00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:45,400
Speaker 3: Is that correct?

828
00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:46,679
Speaker 2: The fourth?

829
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 3: Okay, it was always on January fourth.

830
00:55:49,519 --> 00:55:53,079
Speaker 2: Okay, Russell Kingdom is always on January fourth, kind of

831
00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:58,719
like a national holiday, I guess, so two weeks before

832
00:55:58,800 --> 00:56:01,960
January fourth, whichever that is, we will have the Russell

833
00:56:02,079 --> 00:56:06,159
Kingdom cards up and the Russell Kingdom twenty channel on

834
00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:10,000
the discord. You can go and vote and let's just

835
00:56:10,039 --> 00:56:12,880
see how we do. It's a fun way to make

836
00:56:14,039 --> 00:56:15,800
I don't know, it's kind of like a fun way

837
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:18,880
to make watching the shows more interesting. The other way

838
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:22,400
it's more interesting is that to make it more interesting

839
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:25,239
is that once the polls close, we try to close

840
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:28,360
the polls about an hour to two hours before the

841
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:33,599
actual event starts. Then, for example, we will have a

842
00:56:33,599 --> 00:56:36,679
World's End poll up once we have more matches for

843
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:40,719
World's End after the polls close out one to two

844
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:45,679
hours beforety events start, then that channel becomes a live

845
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,480
chat for that event. And that's always a lot of

846
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:51,840
fun as well. So it's a great way to meet people,

847
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,880
it's a great way to make new friends, and it's

848
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:57,760
a great way to make you know, it's kind of

849
00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:01,360
like fantasy football. Watching the NFL. It kind of just

850
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:05,400
makes it a little bit more interesting. It makes it

851
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:08,639
a little bit more interesting to watch. Just then you

852
00:57:08,639 --> 00:57:13,760
can see your picks compared to everybody else's picks and whatnot.

853
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:17,239
So you could gloat if you pick right and everybody

854
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:20,280
more majority of people pick wrong, you know, So if

855
00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:22,320
you pick an upset and you're right, you can gloate

856
00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:26,440
about it because it's right there in black and white.

857
00:57:26,719 --> 00:57:31,800
Also on the discord we have at aw Awards Channel.

858
00:57:32,440 --> 00:57:37,000
We did our nominations last week and now we have

859
00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:46,119
the pulls up for voting for the aw awards. And again,

860
00:57:46,199 --> 00:57:48,039
this is just a fun little thing that we do

861
00:57:48,239 --> 00:57:51,519
every year. This is the third annual year that we've

862
00:57:51,559 --> 00:57:57,920
done it. There's not there's several categories, but not too

863
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:02,960
many that you will you know, that will make you

864
00:58:03,679 --> 00:58:05,639
It doesn't take a lot of time. I'll give you

865
00:58:05,639 --> 00:58:08,320
the categories right now. I'm not gonna tell you the

866
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:10,480
nominees are. You'll have to go and look. But the

867
00:58:10,559 --> 00:58:14,679
categories are the male and female Wrestlers of the Year,

868
00:58:15,559 --> 00:58:17,760
the Faction of the Year, to Tag Team of the Year,

869
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:22,639
the most improved of the Year, heal and Babyfaces of

870
00:58:22,679 --> 00:58:26,480
the Year, Character work, of the Year. That's it. They're

871
00:58:26,519 --> 00:58:31,960
just fun categories, nothing serious, just getting the vibes from

872
00:58:32,039 --> 00:58:37,679
the community. And there's been several dozen votes already made.

873
00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:42,519
And there's some surprises. I'm not gonna lie to you,

874
00:58:42,559 --> 00:58:47,800
there are some surprises in this, particularly in the heat

875
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:52,239
of the year. I'm going I don't want to say

876
00:58:52,239 --> 00:58:54,360
who's leading, but I don't know that.

877
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:58,199
Speaker 3: It's it's a surprise.

878
00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:05,559
Speaker 2: Also, on our discord tomorrow night, while you're watching a

879
00:59:06,039 --> 00:59:10,599
w Dynamite, we have a room set up aw TV

880
00:59:11,199 --> 00:59:15,280
live Chat. You can live chat during the show. We're

881
00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:22,079
trying to make aw fan hubs accessible and make it

882
00:59:22,679 --> 00:59:29,760
give everybody opportunities to help you meet people and enjoy

883
00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:34,920
the shows. That's what it's all about. I really like it.

884
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:38,360
We had somebody on the aw pant hub subreddit that

885
00:59:38,480 --> 00:59:43,440
is going to the Dynamite tomorrow night, the Dynamite Collision

886
00:59:43,519 --> 00:59:45,639
tomorrow n I don't forget it's a three hour show

887
00:59:45,679 --> 00:59:51,079
tomorrow night. And it was just, you know, he's he

888
00:59:51,119 --> 00:59:53,440
had to go to the show by himself. He doesn't

889
00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:55,559
really know anybody else. It's a wrestling fan. He bought

890
00:59:55,639 --> 00:59:58,280
himself a single ticket and hey, does anybody want to

891
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:03,199
meet up, you know before the show and talk. It's

892
01:00:03,199 --> 01:00:06,559
a great way to meet friends, you know. So that's

893
01:00:06,599 --> 01:00:07,320
what we're about.

894
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:11,239
Speaker 3: So, uh, that's how I've done. I went to quite

895
01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:15,480
a few aw shows by myself and just hope some

896
01:00:15,639 --> 01:00:18,719
people went line were cool and we're up to talk

897
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:19,400
about speed.

898
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:20,719
Speaker 2: You know what.

899
01:00:21,599 --> 01:00:24,280
Speaker 3: The five percent of the time it's worked.

900
01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:30,119
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. I went to a Dynamite last year, a

901
01:00:30,119 --> 01:00:35,480
set next little guy. I went by myself. The sat

902
01:00:35,599 --> 01:00:40,239
next little guy that uh he went by. He came

903
01:00:40,239 --> 01:00:44,320
by himself as well, and we had a blast. You know,

904
01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:47,679
we had a blast. We were just we were completely opposite.

905
01:00:47,679 --> 01:00:50,079
He liked people that I didn't like. And you know,

906
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:53,960
not that I dislike people, you know, because I love everybody,

907
01:00:54,079 --> 01:01:10,079
even Eddie Kingston, but some people because Jess can't defend yourself.

908
01:01:11,639 --> 01:01:24,719
Speaker 5: Oh right now at least somebody does.

909
01:01:24,599 --> 01:01:26,639
Speaker 2: Not in the chat right now. Yeah. But anyway, like

910
01:01:26,719 --> 01:01:30,280
I said, it's a great way. Look, the community is

911
01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:33,840
all about participation, it really is. The community is all

912
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:38,119
about participation. Participation. You could say it, I can't say it,

913
01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:46,480
but uh, take take advantage of it. We're open to suggestions.

914
01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:50,079
We want to do stuff that you want to do,

915
01:01:50,719 --> 01:01:54,280

916
01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:57,840
all about here at aw FAN. We're gonna call it

01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:02,480

we're going to be making our picks for UH World's

923
01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:28,719
End and talking about other hot topics at aw UH.

924
01:02:29,400 --> 01:02:36,239
But we're gonna be talking about no, no, no, where

925
01:02:36,239 --> 01:02:36,920
did that come from?

926
01:02:37,079 --> 01:02:39,840
Speaker 3: I thought it was going to be the announcement of

927
01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:40,960
the awards.

928
01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:45,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't think Chris. That's what my parents. That's what

929
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:49,880
my parents always used to tell me. Don't think Chris,

930
01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:52,239
which was really upsetting to me because I was like,

931
01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:55,880
who the hell is Chris?

932
01:02:57,280 --> 01:03:00,480
Speaker 3: Hey, it's it's better than what I had. Don't think

933
01:03:00,519 --> 01:03:01,239
you was a idiot?

934
01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:07,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, you ever heard the expression, you know, children should

935
01:03:07,519 --> 01:03:10,159
be seen and not heard. Yeah, my parents used to say,

936
01:03:10,159 --> 01:03:15,280
if you had another brain, it would be lonesome. They

937
01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:22,159
were cruel people. My parents are cruel, you know. And yeah,

938
01:03:22,159 --> 01:03:24,360
I'm talking about your mom and dad, God rest your

939
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:33,079
soul whatever. I don't know, I don't know. I'm gonna

940
01:03:33,119 --> 01:03:35,119
put my feet up. I got my feet up on

941
01:03:35,199 --> 01:03:39,800
the desk now, and I have a cold cloth across

942
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:46,920
my forehead and I'm just spewing at this point. All right, So, uh,

943
01:03:47,039 --> 01:03:49,519
I think we now know the reason why Jess sounded

944
01:03:49,559 --> 01:03:51,559
so crappy because their battery is dying.

945
01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:57,360
