Speaker 1: The Hardy Wrestling Podcast with you Girl, Stephanie Hardy, your verr, goat,
Speaker 1: your host, your creator, your writer for daily DDT, your
Speaker 1: color commentator, and just you're all around by the wrestling host.
Speaker 1: I am so happy to be before you after this
Speaker 1: crazy and amazing week that we've had in professional wrestling,
Speaker 1: but also personally for me because it was my birthday
Speaker 1: last Wednesday, I got to celebrate being alive for thirty
Speaker 1: one years. I am so great and so blessed for
Speaker 1: everybody who wished me a happy birthday. I am so
Speaker 1: grateful for everyone who sent me messages and just sent
Speaker 1: me all of your love and your support on all
Speaker 1: over social media. I'm just really happy to be alive
Speaker 1: and just here and just surviving like my thirties. Like
Speaker 1: my first year in my thirties is in the books,
Speaker 1: and I learned a lot about reflection, about responsibility, about
Speaker 1: loving myself, and just so much in this first year
Speaker 1: of my thirties. And I just can't wait to get
Speaker 1: this one. This new one started chapter thirty one, and
Speaker 1: it's really great and I'm just really grateful, and I
Speaker 1: just wanted to come on here and say thank you
Speaker 1: because I haven't had a chance to really say thank
Speaker 1: you yet. So thank you, thank you, thank you for
Speaker 1: all of the love and all the support that was
Speaker 1: shown and of course thank you for supporting the Hearty
Speaker 1: Wrestling podcasts and all of its shows and iterations over
Speaker 1: the past four years and some change, and I just
Speaker 1: can't wait to continue to grow as a host, you know,
Speaker 1: with you guys and talk about the ins and out
Speaker 1: of professional wrestling. There has been so much to go
Speaker 1: on this week, and it was really insane because apart
Speaker 1: of me was trying to keep a low profile and
Speaker 1: just relax and enjoy my day and enjoy my week
Speaker 1: and my month. For all of that it was worth,
Speaker 1: but there was so much going on in wrestling, I
Speaker 1: just had to come on and just talk about it.
Speaker 1: You just can't really leave yourself out of the conversation
Speaker 1: when it comes to stuff like that, especially when it
Speaker 1: comes to the thing that you've loved since you were
Speaker 1: a child. So there's still so much to discuss. So
Speaker 1: I'm so happy to be before all of you on
Speaker 1: this weekend, on this Sunday where we've had so many
Speaker 1: announcements and just so much, you know, to look forward
Speaker 1: to and to deal with. But I just wanted to
Speaker 1: take a minute to just be a goofball for a
Speaker 1: second and just start with this first. What is it
Speaker 1: a place. I I just had to start with it
Speaker 1: because this morning I woke up and found out Kendrick
Speaker 1: Lamar is headlining the Super Bowl halftime show next year,
Speaker 1: and I am so excited because he is like my
Speaker 1: favorite male rapper at this point, Like he's been my
Speaker 1: favorite male rapper for years, so to see him get
Speaker 1: to this point, it's just really amazing for me. So
Speaker 1: I just had to start with that. Actually, you know it,
Speaker 1: because it's my birthday, I'm just a what is it
Speaker 1: a play? I'm sorry, y'all probably came on here to
Speaker 1: hear me talk about wrestling, not music, but either way,
Speaker 1: y'all get the point. It's the vibes. I'm excited. Everything
Speaker 1: is amazing. So let's just go into news and gossip
Speaker 1: is where we talk about the ends and outs of
Speaker 1: professional wrestling and all the news and gossip that we
Speaker 1: heard throughout the week. So, miss man, there are two
Speaker 1: amazing women that we do have to discuss in terms
Speaker 1: of wrestling, and that's Jacqueline who is a Hall of
Speaker 1: Famer in WWE. Her and Lisa Marie Varon, who was
Speaker 1: also professionally known as Victoria in WW have both signed
Speaker 1: Legends contracts with WWE, and it was just so cool
Speaker 1: to see that happen for these two women. Now, of course,
Speaker 1: Double Take Sports reported that Jacqueline had signed a Legends
Speaker 1: contract with WWE and she is the first black woman
Speaker 1: to ever sign a Legends contract with them, and that
Speaker 1: she was inducted into the Hall of Fame in twenty sixteen. Now,
Speaker 1: of course, for those who may or may not remember,
Speaker 1: she is highly decorated. She is a two time WWF
Speaker 1: Women's Champion as well as the first female Cruiserweight Champion
Speaker 1: two and she's had amazing matches with the likes of
Speaker 1: trist Stratus and Jazz as you can see, who she
Speaker 1: essentially opened the doors for in terms of her wrestling career,
Speaker 1: and she's a part of the amazing wrestling lineage of
Speaker 1: the state of Texas. So it's just really cool to
Speaker 1: see this history making woman, you know, get her just
Speaker 1: deal and get a Legends contract in WWE. Now, of
Speaker 1: course we don't know exactly all of what that entails,
Speaker 1: but it's amazing to see that she's even continuing to
Speaker 1: make history with that. And the last time ww fans
Speaker 1: saw her publicly, she was actually at a pay per
Speaker 1: view that ww was having I believe it was SummerSlam,
Speaker 1: so it was just really interesting to see her there
Speaker 1: and now she's signed this contract. And then you also
Speaker 1: have Victoria, who had amazing rivalries with Trish Stratus and
Speaker 1: all those women there during the Ruthless Aggression era too,
Speaker 1: and it's just really great Lisa Marie Slash. Victoria made
Speaker 1: a statement on Twitter and said that here it is
Speaker 1: my big announcement. Earlier this week, I signed a WWE
Speaker 1: Legends contract, but she called it a nostalgia contract. I'm
Speaker 1: so excited and honored that ww reached out to me
Speaker 1: about this. It's a true honor to be a part
Speaker 1: of the w W universe again. This doesn't mean I'll
Speaker 1: be hopping back into the ring, but never say never.
Speaker 1: It does mean I will be included in future things
Speaker 1: like video games and maybe some new official merch. Big
Speaker 1: thank you to hashtag WWE and all my fans and supporters.
Speaker 1: I hope you are excited for this as I am.
Speaker 1: I definitely am excited because both of these women, Jacqueline
Speaker 1: and Victoria, built my women's wrestling fandom from an early age,
Speaker 1: so I am really excited to see them get their things.
Speaker 1: I do hope that though in the future that Jazz
Speaker 1: and Molina and so many other women who helped build
Speaker 1: up the Roofless Aggression era during that time will get
Speaker 1: their things, But you know, I'm pretty sure it will
Speaker 1: happen in due time. But congratulations to these women because
Speaker 1: they definitely are trailblazers when it comes to women's wrestling. Also,
Speaker 1: in terms of women's wrestling news, Giselle Shaw, the quintessential Diva,
Speaker 1: requested her release from TNA Wrestling. This was very surprising
Speaker 1: to me because she definitely was like a tent pole
Speaker 1: when it comes to the Knockouts Division and everything that
Speaker 1: they were doing in the past few years, and she
Speaker 1: was definitely one of my favorites when it came to
Speaker 1: her rivalry with Trinity Slash Naomi during her run there,
Speaker 1: and I just liked her attitude and I just liked
Speaker 1: her swag, and so hearing that she requested her release
Speaker 1: from there was was really surprising. They granted it on
Speaker 1: the condition that she worked the Louisville tapings and put
Speaker 1: someone over on there, and of course TNA was trying
Speaker 1: to work smoothly to grant the release and they didn't
Speaker 1: put a fight about it, and she had been feuding
Speaker 1: with Tasha Steeles before she left. Now, the only thing
Speaker 1: that disappoints me about her TNA run is the fact
Speaker 1: that she was never knockouts champion, and consider she makes
Speaker 1: history and represents a group of people that are sort
Speaker 1: of not really thought about a lot when it comes
Speaker 1: to wrestling in terms of the transgender community, it's just
Speaker 1: kind of like, if she had become champion, that would
Speaker 1: have been amazing. That would have been an amazing look
Speaker 1: for TNA. So the idea that that never happened is
Speaker 1: definitely a missed opportunity because she's so talented. But hopefully
Speaker 1: this means that, you know, since she's very hopeful about it,
Speaker 1: that she will wind up somewhere else in the future.
Speaker 1: She is scheduled to be at Scott Demor's Maple Leaf
Speaker 1: Pro Wrestling later this year, and she's expected to be
Speaker 1: a regular there, So big up to Giselle Shaw and
Speaker 1: wherever it is she's gonna go next. I can't wait
Speaker 1: to see what that is, and hopefully she'll be a
Speaker 1: top champion at some point. But I also wanted her
Speaker 1: to be a part of the NXTNA things that were
Speaker 1: going on too, because because it would have been cool
Speaker 1: to see her get in the mix with some of
Speaker 1: the NXT girls, but of course we still have Tasha Steele,
Speaker 1: was Rosemary, and so many other women that could get
Speaker 1: in the mix with NX as well. But big ups
Speaker 1: to Giselle Shaw anyway, because she is so talented and
Speaker 1: so cool. So yeah. Also in news and gossip ish,
Speaker 1: we have a very disturbing story that came out of
Speaker 1: this week now. On Monday morning, it was announced via
Speaker 1: Twitter that Odissey Jones was removed from the internal roster
Speaker 1: on WWE's website. And this kind of shook people because
Speaker 1: they were thinking, oh, well, maybe he got fired, or
Speaker 1: maybe it was a technical issue, because that's what I
Speaker 1: thought when I first saw it. I was like, maybe
Speaker 1: it's a technical issue because he's been on TV for
Speaker 1: the past couple of weeks, so it doesn't make sense
Speaker 1: for him to be off the website, right, Boy? Was
Speaker 1: I wrong? As it turns out, Odyssey Jones has been
Speaker 1: reportedly quietly released from WWE due to him being attached
Speaker 1: to some domestic violence allegations. And these allegations are not
Speaker 1: unfounded because there was a woman who was attached to him,
Speaker 1: not saying don't know if she's a girlfriend or a
Speaker 1: wife or just a significant other. She went on Twitter
Speaker 1: and started airing out dirty laundry and saying that he
Speaker 1: used to beat on her and tried to get her
Speaker 1: to keep it quiet, but she wasn't going out like that.
Speaker 1: And this was very shocking, and it came out as
Speaker 1: the day kept going on, and it was just like, WHOA,
Speaker 1: this is ugly. It's very ugly because the one thing
Speaker 1: I know I cannot stand is if and of course
Speaker 1: these are allegations, so you know this is alleged, but
Speaker 1: if you are hitting women or abusing women in any way,
Speaker 1: shape or for, or just abusing people in any way,
Speaker 1: shape or form, you do not deserve to have a
Speaker 1: platform or for a platform for anything. I understand that
Speaker 1: this world is pretty corrupt when it comes to stuff
Speaker 1: like that. I know that there are people who are
Speaker 1: in power who think that they're above any accountability for
Speaker 1: their actions. But sweetheart, this is not that type of world.
Speaker 1: Like you cannot continue to treat people like trash and
Speaker 1: think you're just gonna automatically get away with it all
Speaker 1: the time. And when it comes to add C. Jones,
Speaker 1: it seems like all of those chickens came home to roost.
Speaker 1: And it's really crazy when you think about it, because
Speaker 1: at one point he was on NXT, you know, he
Speaker 1: had participated in the Breakout Tournament, even though he lost
Speaker 1: to Carmelo Hayes and NXT before it changed over to
Speaker 1: two point zero and all of that, and then he
Speaker 1: got injured for a while, and then he got better
Speaker 1: and he was on TV for a minute, but then
Speaker 1: they took him off TV, and then he got back
Speaker 1: on TV with the New Day, you know, to sort
Speaker 1: of start up this dissension between Xavier and Kofi, and
Speaker 1: now he's gone again, and it's just that is just
Speaker 1: the worst ball to fumble. But hey, you do not
Speaker 1: get far treating people like trash. You really don't. Even
Speaker 1: when you think you've gotten that far, you still haven't
Speaker 1: gotten that far. And if Odyssey was out here beating
Speaker 1: on women, then I don't feel sorry for him at all.
Speaker 1: I don't because why is your anger that out of
Speaker 1: control that you have to hit somebody, and hit somebody
Speaker 1: who you know probably wouldn't even match up with you
Speaker 1: when it comes to hitting people like that's just gross.
Speaker 1: Let's not hit people. Men don't hit women. Women don't
Speaker 1: hit men. Just don't hit your significant other because that's
Speaker 1: not love. Pain is not love, and we do not
Speaker 1: support that here. So it's grand opening, grand closing for Odyssey,
Speaker 1: and we'll we just got to see what happens from
Speaker 1: there when it comes to the New Day. But hey, goodbye.
Speaker 1: That's all I have to say about that. Now, moving
Speaker 1: on to even more crazier news that I heard about
Speaker 1: is the fact that there is a lawsuit being thrown
Speaker 1: at AAW and it's CEO Tony Kahan by three former
Speaker 1: talent in the form of Kevin Kelly, who you might
Speaker 1: know from commentary from Ring of Honor before it was purchased,
Speaker 1: and also from interviewwork from back in the day with
Speaker 1: WWE and Brandon and Brent Tait who were known as
Speaker 1: the Boys in AAW. They are bringing a lawsuit against
Speaker 1: AW and it was filed on August the thirtieth in
Speaker 1: the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Court of Common Please and the attorneys
Speaker 1: are Steven P. New and Benjamin Brayer, and they are
Speaker 1: seeking to avoid the arbitration cause of their talent contracts,
Speaker 1: as well as requesting the court certify a class action
Speaker 1: suit against AW overclaims that the company is misclassifying its
Speaker 1: wrestling talent as independent contractors rather than employees. And this
Speaker 1: tweet kind of goes on and on to say that
Speaker 1: the Tape Brothers were released from their Ring of Honor
Speaker 1: contracts due to budget cuts, and that Tony Kahn claimed
Speaker 1: during media events that their release was due to no
Speaker 1: showing several events, acclaim the brothers deny, and that claim
Speaker 1: is now at the center of the defamation allegation by
Speaker 1: the Tape Brothers. And then of course Kevin Kelly is
Speaker 1: seeking monetary damages because aw breached his contract. So it's
Speaker 1: pretty huge in the sense that this is, you know,
Speaker 1: a huge I guess to me, like it's a big
Speaker 1: deal when you have people who work for your company
Speaker 1: and they feel wronged. Now, mind you, I have never
Speaker 1: run a company. I can never say that because I've
Speaker 1: never owned a business, purchased a business, had employees, or
Speaker 1: anything else like that. But I do know as a
Speaker 1: person who has a full time job, I don't want
Speaker 1: to feel like I'm just being discarded and treated wrong.
Speaker 1: So maybe that's what's happening with these guys here in
Speaker 1: this lawsuit. I don't know, but I did think it
Speaker 1: was interesting how this came to play. Of course, these
Speaker 1: are the boys, Brendan and Brent Tate. Now I'm not
Speaker 1: entirely sure how much attention you know, AW itself is
Speaker 1: going to pay to it in terms of public knowledge,
Speaker 1: because of course they did just have all out yesterday
Speaker 1: and they're trying to sort of move away from the
Speaker 1: negative and focus more on the positive. But yeah, this
Speaker 1: happened during the week and I just wanted to address
Speaker 1: it because it was there. So hopefully the people who
Speaker 1: felt like they were wronged in that situation can get
Speaker 1: their things and feel like, you know, they'll be their
Speaker 1: right will be well, the right will be I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: they're wrongs will be righted in this situation. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: you hate to see it. That's the stuff that you
Speaker 1: hate to see. Also, so in news and gossip is
Speaker 1: we have the legendary Brett the hit Man Heart making
Speaker 1: an appearance on Monday Night Raw tomorrow, which will be
Speaker 1: the season premiere of Raw on USA during WWE Week.
Speaker 1: And of course this episode is going to be in Calgary, Alberta, Canada,
Speaker 1: which is Heart Country, and it's just really cool that
Speaker 1: he's going to be there because of course, you know,
Speaker 1: once upon a time, there was a beef he had,
Speaker 1: but now the beef is squashed and he's going to
Speaker 1: be on Raw in Canada and that's just really cool.
Speaker 1: Canada has just been having an amazing year when it
Speaker 1: comes to professional wrestling as a whole, and I'm glad
Speaker 1: that Brett Hart is coming on there. It's going to
Speaker 1: be it's rumored and highly speculated to be a heart
Speaker 1: heavy episode between him and maybe Natalia being the partner
Speaker 1: to Lyra Valkarria is Alena Vega and the six woman tag,
Speaker 1: So it's just really cool to see him being a
Speaker 1: part of the things. It's amazing. I feel like people
Speaker 1: tend to talk about him on social media just randomly
Speaker 1: for no reason, and this week it happened because people
Speaker 1: were talking about him and how much he loves black
Speaker 1: women and how his wife, whose name is also Stephanie,
Speaker 1: just so happens to be a black woman too. So yeah,
Speaker 1: apparently the Sisters really love Brett Hart. And I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna lie. He was kind of hot back in the day,
Speaker 1: but you know, now he's in his you know, living
Speaker 1: his best life stages as you know, a retired elderly man,
Speaker 1: and he's just doing the best he can, and it's
Speaker 1: just really great to see him getting his flowers as
Speaker 1: he's here. So because the Hearts have been through a lot,
Speaker 1: so it's good to see them, you know, being happy
Speaker 1: and doing the things. So big ups to Brett Hart
Speaker 1: and I can't wait to see him tomorrow. And in
Speaker 1: speaking more about controversial pieces of news, the trailer for
Speaker 1: the new docu series Mister McMahon came out and it's
Speaker 1: going to be on Netflix and it's going to start
Speaker 1: on September the twenty fifth. Is It is executive produced
Speaker 1: by Bill Simmons, who primarily is known for his podcast
Speaker 1: work with Spotify and The Ringer, and it's also executive
Speaker 1: produced by Chris Smith, who executive produced the Tiger King documentary.
Speaker 1: For those who remember that phenomenon during the pandemic era,
Speaker 1: Basically in the trailer you could kind of see that.
Speaker 1: In this documentary, they're talking about the beginnings of mister McMahon,
Speaker 1: Vince McMahon, and how he got started in the wrestling
Speaker 1: business and how he came to grow power and to
Speaker 1: you know, revolutionize wrestling for what we know it as
Speaker 1: as now. And then of course they're gonna get into
Speaker 1: the nitty gritty of all of the negativity about his
Speaker 1: persona and how he treated he might have treated women,
Speaker 1: and oh my god, this is gonna be over the
Speaker 1: course of six episodes. And I am ready to watch
Speaker 1: this because I've been ready to watch this since they
Speaker 1: first announced it, but then I wasn't sure if they
Speaker 1: were gonna still do it because of all the allegations
Speaker 1: that came out. But I'm seeing, as you know, new
Speaker 1: stuff is happening Raw well, Raw's moving to Netflix next year,
Speaker 1: and all of this is going on. I just I
Speaker 1: can't wait to see what they're gonna talk about. And
Speaker 1: I hope that they do address what happened with a
Speaker 1: little bit of the lawsuit and also with everything else
Speaker 1: in a way that actually gives humanity and credit to
Speaker 1: the victims. And I just hope that a full story
Speaker 1: is told and that it's not just oh, well, he
Speaker 1: revolutionized all of this, but then it's like you're sweeping
Speaker 1: all the bad stuff under the rug, Like, no, y'all
Speaker 1: need to tell truth, tell the full truth. But seeing
Speaker 1: as this is going to be six episodes, we about
Speaker 1: to have a time. So yeah, I'm pretty interested in
Speaker 1: seeing how this documentary is going to go so yeah,
Speaker 1: it's coming on, and it's going to be only on
Speaker 1: Netflix starting September twenty fifth, and it's six episodes, so
Speaker 1: it's not just gonna be one big documentary. It's six episodes.
Speaker 1: So be on the lookout if I decided to make
Speaker 1: content about it, but then I might just watch it.
Speaker 1: I might watch it and not do it, but then
Speaker 1: I might do content about it. I'm not entirely sure,
Speaker 1: but just be on the lookout for any announcements that
Speaker 1: I might make. And finally, we have news about Julian.
Speaker 1: Of course, Miss Julia has made her debut in NXT.
Speaker 1: After so much speculation as to when she would come
Speaker 1: and who she would very well be wrestling against and
Speaker 1: all of the above, she has now staked her claim
Speaker 1: in NXT, and I'm going to talk more about it
Speaker 1: a little bit later. Fiful Selects Corey Brennan reported that
Speaker 1: WW has big plans for Julia and Roxanne, which was
Speaker 1: dating all the way back to NXC stand and delivered
Speaker 1: this year when Julia was shown in the crowd prior
Speaker 1: to Perez's title win over Lyra Valkyria, and now of
Speaker 1: course that happened. Russell MANU Weekend, I was very fortunate
Speaker 1: to have seen that moment take place where everybody got
Speaker 1: crunkd for Julia, including myself. I was yelling, and it
Speaker 1: was just really cool to see her have that moment
Speaker 1: before that historic match, because of course, Roxanne went on
Speaker 1: to become a two time NXC Women's Champion against Lyra,
Speaker 1: and it was just really cool to see her have
Speaker 1: that moment, you know, it was really great. So now
Speaker 1: she's here in NXC and she has officially challenged Roxanne
Speaker 1: and they will be fighting on the premiere episode of
Speaker 1: NXT on the CW and I'm very crunk about that,
Speaker 1: and everybody's just really excited about her being there, and
Speaker 1: I'm really glad for it. But then you also have
Speaker 1: people online who were making it seem like she might
Speaker 1: have she might have messed up her debut on NX
Speaker 1: this past Tuesday because she hit Chelsea Green with a
Speaker 1: knee and they tried to make it seem like she
Speaker 1: didn't hit it hard enough. Just sitting here, like, something
Speaker 1: that definitely irks me is that wrestling fans, because they've
Speaker 1: been watching wrestling for so long, feel like they have
Speaker 1: the right to tell wrestlers how to do their job
Speaker 1: and it's annoying. It's really annoying, like we always I
Speaker 1: understand that we have this passion for this sport of ours,
Speaker 1: but at the same time, you have to be able
Speaker 1: to trust that these wrestlers know exactly what they're doing
Speaker 1: when they're trying to keep their other person safe. But
Speaker 1: then if she had hit her too hard, you would
Speaker 1: have complained that she hit her too hard. And I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna need for us to chill a bit with
Speaker 1: telling wrestlers how to execute their moves and telling wrestlers how,
Speaker 1: oh well, it should look like this or it should
Speaker 1: look like this, because have you ever wrestled a match
Speaker 1: in your life? Like, have you ever wrestled a match
Speaker 1: on television in your life or even in front of
Speaker 1: people and it's not televised, have you ever done it?
Speaker 1: I feel like wrestling fans who have never wrestled a
Speaker 1: day in their lives, are never gotten a ring or
Speaker 1: taking a bump, should not be telling these people how
Speaker 1: to do their jobs. They just shouldn't and we shouldn't
Speaker 1: be doing that to Julia, who is about to make
Speaker 1: a debut and basically change the face of women's wrestling
Speaker 1: as we know it. Like we shouldn't be doing that.
Speaker 1: We really need to chill with that. So I believe
Speaker 1: that's all for news and gossip Fish. I'm excited for
Speaker 1: Julia to be there in NXT. I'm really pumped about it,
Speaker 1: and I just can't wait to see what her and
Speaker 1: Rock sand are gonna cook up for this NXC Women's title.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be some insane stuff, but I'm definitely here
Speaker 1: for it, so I'm really excited. So that is all
Speaker 1: for news and gossipish, and now we're going to move
Speaker 1: into what I liked in wrestling this week, and it's
Speaker 1: a lot that happened this week because there was a
Speaker 1: lot of pay per views and a lot of different
Speaker 1: things too. Oh wait, I forgot to mention. Trick Williams
Speaker 1: was on Wild and Out and their live tour on
Speaker 1: yesterday and he was a team captain up there with
Speaker 1: Nick Cannon, Justina and Valentine and the entire crew and
Speaker 1: everything for wild'n Out Live, and I wish it was
Speaker 1: on TV, but I am glad that he got that
Speaker 1: opportunity to act a clown on a show like that,
Speaker 1: So I'm really excited for him that he got to
Speaker 1: do that. And he even brought lash Legend along with
Speaker 1: him too, and this is so let me show you
Speaker 1: what a real man he took out your appearances. Come on, yeah,
Speaker 1: last get him together? What we doing Wait wait waity,
Speaker 1: we take it on servia yep, lash Lange, his lady
Speaker 1: love in real life was telling him, uh uh, push
Speaker 1: your clothes back off, put your clothes back on. Everybody
Speaker 1: am meant to see all that stop and stop and
Speaker 1: stop it. And I think that's funny. You know how
Speaker 1: some people in relationships, you know, be like this. Sometimes
Speaker 1: they just be playing with each other like uh uh,
Speaker 1: put that away. That's just for me, right see. But
Speaker 1: here's the thing. If that was me and my man,
Speaker 1: I'd be like, yeah, go ahead and look look look
Speaker 1: at him, ladies, look at the man y'all can't have
Speaker 1: and gets to come home with me. That's the hot
Speaker 1: stuff we like. But I love black Love, and I
Speaker 1: just love that they're popping out more with each other.
Speaker 1: They're super cute. I live for them as a couple,
Speaker 1: and if ww and Hulu wants to do another reality show,
Speaker 1: then I feel like they are definitely top contenders to
Speaker 1: have Love and w W Lash and Trick or something
Speaker 1: like that. But yeah, now that's really all for news
Speaker 1: and gossip fiction. Now we're really about to go into
Speaker 1: what I liked in wrestling this week. I just had
Speaker 1: to share that little tap that was funny. So of course,
Speaker 1: Bash in Berlin and NX No Mercy happened this past
Speaker 1: week in and when I tell you, I absolutely enjoyed
Speaker 1: watching Rea Ripley and Damian Priest the Terror Twins destroy
Speaker 1: Live Morgan, the Women's World Champion and Dirty Dom. I
Speaker 1: enjoyed it. I very much enjoyed it, Okay, because something
Speaker 1: that was just really funny for me is the fact
Speaker 1: that throughout this whole match you had Live in Dominique,
Speaker 1: you know, playing my games or whatever. And then on
Speaker 1: top of it, they tried to use the judgment day
Speaker 1: to cheat and get the best of them. But what's
Speaker 1: so funny is they still lost. They still lost, and
Speaker 1: Live still wound up taking this amazing pin that Ria
Speaker 1: Ripley decided to bring back for all of us crazy
Speaker 1: people and then lick her face. I was just like,
Speaker 1: excuse me, how in the world do you have everything
Speaker 1: that you have claimed to steal from Real Ripley and
Speaker 1: still lose? And I'm gonna get more into it a
Speaker 1: little bit later. I just don't understand Live. I don't
Speaker 1: understand her. And what makes it even funnier is the
Speaker 1: fact that when the Terror Twins were making their entrance
Speaker 1: at Bashi and Berlin, Dirty Dominic and Live were like
Speaker 1: sitting on the commentary desk, but right behind them you
Speaker 1: had these fans holding up this giant sign that spelled
Speaker 1: out Real Ripley, and it was just the funniest thing
Speaker 1: on the planet. It was just like it, like the
Speaker 1: script writes itself, it's just like, no matter how much
Speaker 1: you try to steal it from Ria Ripley, you will
Speaker 1: just never have that woman's aura. You just won't. You
Speaker 1: won't have her aura, you won't have her strength. It's
Speaker 1: just everything that Ria Ripley has. It's not external, it's
Speaker 1: very much internal, and it's just who she is, in
Speaker 1: her aura, in her power. And I just love that
Speaker 1: they lost the way that they did. But I'm gonna
Speaker 1: get more into that a little bit later. But I
Speaker 1: enjoyed that part of Bash and Berlin, and then of
Speaker 1: course I loved seeing Jade and Bianca come out on
Speaker 1: top and when they're women's tag team titles back, I
Speaker 1: was so excited about this because first of all, they
Speaker 1: came out there in that match and Green looking like money,
Speaker 1: first of all, and second of all, they found a
Speaker 1: way to outsmart Aila Don and Alba fire because those
Speaker 1: girls were giving them what for and all kinds of
Speaker 1: hell in that tag team match, And for a second,
Speaker 1: it was definitely looking kind of hopeless, like they weren't
Speaker 1: gonna win, and I was gonna be really sad, but
Speaker 1: they wound up battling back and using you know, their
Speaker 1: powers and not letting the Unholy Union separate them, and
Speaker 1: they won their titles, and I am so so so happy.
Speaker 1: I'm so happy, Like I hope they remained champion for
Speaker 1: a longer period of time than they did the first time,
Speaker 1: and I hope that they beat Ala and Alba again,
Speaker 1: because yo, they need to, They definitely need to to
Speaker 1: just let these women know that they just need to
Speaker 1: stand in the back of the line and that it
Speaker 1: is it's big three times or in their case, big
Speaker 1: two time. So I was just so happy that they
Speaker 1: got their titles back, like it was a moment, and
Speaker 1: I was really thrilled about that. Black women Yay Yes.
Speaker 1: And then I of course enjoyed Cody Rhodes versus Kevin
Speaker 1: Owens for the Undisputed WW Championship. This of course opened
Speaker 1: up Bash and Berlin, and this was a really good
Speaker 1: match in the sense that they were telling a really
Speaker 1: great story here. It's the fact that Kevin Owens and
Speaker 1: Cody Roads are really good friends. But it was also
Speaker 1: like Kevin, because they were good friends, Kevin really knew
Speaker 1: everything that Cody was about to hit him with. It
Speaker 1: was just like, look, you're my best friend, and I
Speaker 1: can call all of your moves and your plays in
Speaker 1: my sleep. I know how to, you know, be on
Speaker 1: top of everything that you're about to do, and I
Speaker 1: love seeing that throughout the match. But it was a
Speaker 1: great back and forth and Cody wound up winning and
Speaker 1: it Loki looked like maybe Kevin was mad about it,
Speaker 1: but we'll have to see how that out. But either way,
Speaker 1: this was a really great match. It was very hard hitting,
Speaker 1: and you could tell that there was some hesitation from
Speaker 1: Kevin to go all out on Cody. You know that
Speaker 1: was just to him telling the story of their friendship
Speaker 1: and him just not wanting to be the person that
Speaker 1: he had always been when it came to his friendship's ending.
Speaker 1: Because every time he ended a friendship, he always hit
Speaker 1: them with a power bomb onto the apron of the ring,
Speaker 1: and he decided not to do that to Cody. So
Speaker 1: maybe Kevin Owens is a change man. Maybe he just
Speaker 1: doesn't want to be evil no more. And that's okay
Speaker 1: because we've seen him end a lot of friendships and
Speaker 1: we've seen him apologize to a lot of folks, but
Speaker 1: mainly Kobe Kingston. But still he just didn't want to
Speaker 1: be that person anymore. But I'm glad that Cody Rose
Speaker 1: is still a champion, and it seems like where he's
Speaker 1: moving on to in terms of facing Jacob Batu, it's
Speaker 1: gonna be really cool too. I did see that clip
Speaker 1: on online after SmackDown went off this past Friday. I
Speaker 1: slept on smack Down because I was really tired. But
Speaker 1: either way, this match was really good. So I do
Speaker 1: recommend if you have not watched it to watch it
Speaker 1: because it's good. And of course I love the strap
Speaker 1: match between seeing Punk and Drew McIntyre that I hate
Speaker 1: the way that you walk, the way that you talk,
Speaker 1: I hate the way that you dress match, and I
Speaker 1: just love watching CM Punk come not come into his
Speaker 1: you know, wrestling powers because he always had them. I
Speaker 1: just love seeing him prove people wrong because a lot
Speaker 1: of people made it seem like, oh, well, he's just
Speaker 1: injury prone and his body is weak and he's not
Speaker 1: meant to do this anymore. And it just seems like
Speaker 1: with every match he's had with Drew McIntyre so far,
Speaker 1: he has done nothing but prove all of the critics wrong.
Speaker 1: He got in here and gave Drew McIntyre at least
Speaker 1: four go to sleeps and lifted that big old heavy
Speaker 1: man on his shoulders, like, excuse me, Drew McIntyre is
Speaker 1: a beefcake. Okay, that's like lifting like three giant bags
Speaker 1: of hay on your shoulders, I imagine. And the idea
Speaker 1: that he was able to do it multiple times while
Speaker 1: whipping him down and touching all of the turnbuckles to
Speaker 1: win the match and all of that was just really insane.
Speaker 1: And just the idea that see him punk won his
Speaker 1: first ww match in ten years like that is just
Speaker 1: unbelievable stuff right there. That's the stuff that can only
Speaker 1: happen in wrestling. On a very serious note, now, of course,
Speaker 1: we have more to discuss about their rivalry later on
Speaker 1: in the show, but this match was really great. Even
Speaker 1: though at one point I did feel like it wasn't
Speaker 1: enough whipping with the strap for me, it was still
Speaker 1: really good and it was really cool. So big ups
Speaker 1: to see him punk for having that big moment for
Speaker 1: himself and for proving the doubters wrong. Like Yo, I
Speaker 1: might be older, but don't get it twisted. I could
Speaker 1: still wrestle, So it was cool. Now moving on to
Speaker 1: NXC No Mercy, I feel like not enough good things
Speaker 1: have been fully said about Jada Parker and her performance
Speaker 1: against Roxanne Perez, because of course, Jada Parker has almost,
Speaker 1: if not already, completed her first full year of wrestling,
Speaker 1: because of course, she came from soccer and LSU, and
Speaker 1: you know, she's been training in the performance center and
Speaker 1: she's still relatively new to this sport. And for someone
Speaker 1: like her with the athleticism and the attitude that she
Speaker 1: has in spades in comparison to Roxanne, who's been wrestling
Speaker 1: since she was essentially a baby, and for them to
Speaker 1: have had the match that they had, it's just unbelievable
Speaker 1: and it's just really great. I'm just so proud of
Speaker 1: Jada Parker, and I know she tweeted a few days
Speaker 1: ago saying, I hope that I made y'all proud even
Speaker 1: though I lost, and I'm just like girl, like, I
Speaker 1: know she doesn't know me from a canapaign, but she
Speaker 1: made me proud in that moment because she just did
Speaker 1: so good and proved that at some point she could
Speaker 1: very well carry, you know, an NXT women's title or
Speaker 1: be the NX Women's North American Champion at some point,
Speaker 1: because she just has everything already, Like if she just
Speaker 1: keeps working more and more, she will be a standout performer.
Speaker 1: I just really feel it like she will definitely be
Speaker 1: a standout performer real soon because she already has the attitude.
Speaker 1: She already has, like the verbal jabs, like she has
Speaker 1: it all together and I just can't wait to see
Speaker 1: more of what she has to offer. But she did
Speaker 1: so good in this match. She definitely proved that she
Speaker 1: deserved to stand toe to toe with a Roxanne Pariz
Speaker 1: and Roxanne gave her hell, but Jada Parker gave her
Speaker 1: hell back. I love the fact the part of the
Speaker 1: match where Roxanne was pretending to be Jada Parker and
Speaker 1: doing her dance or whatever, and then she tried to
Speaker 1: hit her with the hip check and then she tried
Speaker 1: to knock her over, but then Jada Parker caught her arms.
Speaker 1: It was just like, you know, you done fed up? Right,
Speaker 1: you fed up? You effed up? And rock ste was like, no, no,
Speaker 1: I thought that was perfect. It was perfect and you
Speaker 1: could cut the tension with a knife and I'm just
Speaker 1: I just really love that match. It was probably one
Speaker 1: of the matches of the night for me. For NX
Speaker 1: No Mercy, they did a phenomenal job. And I just
Speaker 1: can't wait to see more of what Jada Parker has
Speaker 1: to give, because she's still really young. But for her
Speaker 1: to be this young in her wrestling career and to
Speaker 1: have grown the way that she has, it's just it's
Speaker 1: just a testament to her hard work and for her
Speaker 1: passion for it. So I can't wait to see more
Speaker 1: of what she has to offer. But she did so good,
Speaker 1: So big up to Jada Parker. You made me proud
Speaker 1: if you didn't make nobody else prow so yes, you
Speaker 1: did a good girl. And then of course you had
Speaker 1: Julia popping up and her was insane. It was absolutely
Speaker 1: insane how she did it. Because Roxeye was celebrating having
Speaker 1: retained her title, and then it got dark and I'm
Speaker 1: just like, oh my god, what who? Who is it now?
Speaker 1: What's going on? And then it was Julia and I
Speaker 1: was like, Oh, it's her. She's so beautiful. That was
Speaker 1: the first thing that popped into my head. When I
Speaker 1: saw Julia's face. I was just like, man, she's so
Speaker 1: beautiful with his hair and the makeup and all of
Speaker 1: the she just looked amazing. The vava boom. She just
Speaker 1: has that aura. And I'm just so happy that she's
Speaker 1: here in NXT and she gets to create more moments
Speaker 1: in wrestling because she's already made all kinds of moments
Speaker 1: throughout you know, Japanese wrestling and Josie Joshi Women's wrestling
Speaker 1: and all of that. So now she gets to be
Speaker 1: here and create even more classic matches that I'm more
Speaker 1: than she will get her ranked somewhere. So I'm really
Speaker 1: excited about this. I'm just really weighing out. This is great, right,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna possibly go back and watch some matches that
Speaker 1: she has had in the past so I can just
Speaker 1: become more abreast of her style. But I am just
Speaker 1: really pumped about this. I really am. I'm so excited.
Speaker 1: I'm really excited. I feel like October can't get here
Speaker 1: fast enough because her versus Roxanne is gonna feed families.
Speaker 1: And then of course we get to see her wrestle
Speaker 1: Tuesday against Chelsea Green. That's gonna be cool too, But yeah,
Speaker 1: her and Roxanne is gonna feed families. I'm excited. And
Speaker 1: then of course I have to give big ups to
Speaker 1: Zachary Wentz, who I predicted was going to win his
Speaker 1: match against Wesley, because of course it's just the personal
Speaker 1: part of their brotherhood breaking up that just hurts you, right.
Speaker 1: But then on top of that, you know you have
Speaker 1: Wesley telling him I'm a WW superstar and you're just
Speaker 1: a TNA wrestler. And there's extra gravity to it because
Speaker 1: Zachary decided he was gonna go on TNA emergence and
Speaker 1: win the X Division Championship and then carry that same
Speaker 1: title that he just won that weekend to NX No
Speaker 1: Mercy and be his friend or his former friend. That's crazy.
Speaker 1: He put TNA on his back, and actually so did
Speaker 1: Trey McGill. They put TNA on their backs and represent it.
Speaker 1: And when I tell you, Zachary impressed me when he
Speaker 1: hit that UF phone on Wesley at the end of
Speaker 1: the match. Bruh, it's a thing of beauty. I almost
Speaker 1: passed out from how crazy that move looked on television.
Speaker 1: I was like, excuse me, Zachary, Zachary, what is this?
Speaker 1: What is this? It was so cool looking. I just
Speaker 1: could not deal with it. I was just like, that
Speaker 1: was insane. I was yelling. I was just like, yo's
Speaker 1: what And he won and it was amazing. It was
Speaker 1: just so amazing. So big up to Zachary for winning
Speaker 1: and putting TNA on his back and you know, just
Speaker 1: going on to better things, even though I feel like
Speaker 1: Wesley is somehow an They're going to come back and
Speaker 1: try to ruin things for him and Trey Miguil when
Speaker 1: it comes to the NX Tag division. But either way,
Speaker 1: this match was fantastic and the ending was fantastic as well.
Speaker 1: Now if we could just get Gigi Dolan back, Zachary,
Speaker 1: go go have a talk with your future wife, tell
Speaker 1: her we miss her, and come back please. So that
Speaker 1: was amazing. That's all that I love from Bash and
Speaker 1: Berlin and Nixy no mercy. Now, moving into raw from
Speaker 1: this week, like I said, we got to talk more
Speaker 1: about how mislive Morgan has all of the tools to
Speaker 1: get all the upper hand over Ria Ripley, but yet
Speaker 1: and still takes every l imaginable against this woman. So
Speaker 1: let me paint the picture. Monday night Raw comes on.
Speaker 1: Rhea decides she wants to cut a promo, you know,
Speaker 1: in basket her victory, you know, with Damien or whatnot.
Speaker 1: And then Dominic comes out there and starts talking trash,
Speaker 1: but of course you can barely hear him because everybody's
Speaker 1: buoying and all these things. And then he basically lies
Speaker 1: and says that Live isn't there and that she's recovering
Speaker 1: from her injuries or whatnot. And so when he decides
Speaker 1: that he wants to get a Ria's face and distract her,
Speaker 1: liv wants to try to sneak up on her front behind.
Speaker 1: But tell me why. When she gets ready to sneak
Speaker 1: up on her from behind, Ria elbows her in her face.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, are you not supposed to have the upper
Speaker 1: hand when you sneak somebody from behind? And then you're
Speaker 1: essentially fighting two on one because Dominic was out there,
Speaker 1: And then it gets even worse because they trip up.
Speaker 1: She trips up Ria Ripley in the ropes and then
Speaker 1: injures her knee you know, and knocks her out for
Speaker 1: the for the night presumably, and then she decides that
Speaker 1: she wants to kiss her on the cheek, you know,
Speaker 1: just to get a little bit of revenge. And then
Speaker 1: what makes it worse is that during the tag team
Speaker 1: match that Damien had with jay Uso against the Judgment Day,
Speaker 1: Live Morgan tries to come out there, you know, and
Speaker 1: then get the upper hand so they so the Judgment
Speaker 1: Day can win the match. But then Rhea comes out
Speaker 1: there anyway, crutching all and then Live decides, oh, look
Speaker 1: at you. I took your leg. I took your leg.
Speaker 1: I took your leg, I took your man, I took this, this, this,
Speaker 1: I took your family. But in all of you and
Speaker 1: the idea that Live is bragging about every you took
Speaker 1: from her from Ria, Ria takes the crutch and starts
Speaker 1: beating Live with it. By all accounts, Ria is crippled technically,
Speaker 1: and you're still getting your butt whooped. Live takes more
Speaker 1: l's than her name, because sweetheart, there is no reason,
Speaker 1: like I said earlier, for you to have everything have
Speaker 1: supposedly taken everything from Live, I mean from Ria, and
Speaker 1: yet you still consistently take ls. You lost at Bash
Speaker 1: in Berlin Saturday, you get elbowed when you try to
Speaker 1: sneak up on her from behind, you get beat up
Speaker 1: with a crutch. When Ria is technically crippled. Do you
Speaker 1: not know how to take ls? Like? Do you not
Speaker 1: know how to get any winds? It's just unbelievable how
Speaker 1: how many els Live took within the span of seventy
Speaker 1: two hours, and you supposedly have everything that real had, Like,
Speaker 1: you took everything from her. You took her title, you
Speaker 1: took her leg, you took her man, you took her family.
Speaker 1: But yet somehow know that she keeps taking winds from you.
Speaker 1: She's beating you in all the ways that actually matter.
Speaker 1: And I think that's really eating at you a bit,
Speaker 1: the fact that you've taken everything from her but her pride,
Speaker 1: but her strength, but her aura, and girl, it's still
Speaker 1: not working live. You just might need to hang it up.
Speaker 1: Hang it up, girl, just hang it up. But I
Speaker 1: just had to talk about that because that was just
Speaker 1: insane to look at. Multiple times, I was like, girl,
Speaker 1: you keep losing, you keep losing. It's hilarious, But we're
Speaker 1: gonna move on. We're definitely gonna move on. I did
Speaker 1: that work or did that skip a picture? Hold on
Speaker 1: a second, I'm trying to see. Okay, So no, it
Speaker 1: didn't skip a picture. I'm sorry, y'all. Maxine Dupree of
Speaker 1: the Alpha Academy continues to grow in wrestling by leaps
Speaker 1: and bounds. And when she had the six person tag
Speaker 1: against American Maid and she was actually going ham on
Speaker 1: Ivy Nile before Ivy choked her out, I was so
Speaker 1: happy about it. I was just like, excuse me. She
Speaker 1: was hitting backflips, she was hitting the worm like. She
Speaker 1: even hit a couple of soup lexes here and there.
Speaker 1: Maxine is really growing into her athleticism as a wrestler,
Speaker 1: and I love that for her because I've been waiting
Speaker 1: for her to pop out of her shell more and
Speaker 1: more since Becky Lynch gave her that pep talk before
Speaker 1: she won the Women's World title in that Battle World Like,
Speaker 1: I've been waiting for Maxine to really come into herself,
Speaker 1: and she really is doing that more and more. And
Speaker 1: I'm just so happy for her in that regard because
Speaker 1: a lot of people were giving her a hard time
Speaker 1: as she was growing online and whatnot here again fans
Speaker 1: stepping out of bounds and telling wrestlers how to do
Speaker 1: their job. Stop. But yeah, she was really amazing this
Speaker 1: past Monday, and she just continues to just grow more
Speaker 1: and more, and I'm just really happy for Maxine and
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I can't wait for her to actually
Speaker 1: really like Locky in and win win some matches like
Speaker 1: it'll be insane. But she just pumps me up from
Speaker 1: just seeing how excited she gets when she wins matches
Speaker 1: or when she participates in matches anyway. So yeah, Maxine
Speaker 1: did good. She's continuing to just do good and I
Speaker 1: just love watching her do it. And then we have
Speaker 1: Zelena Vega, my girl, my love, my queen from Queens.
Speaker 1: She came out with this beautiful outfit with these red
Speaker 1: flowers on them, which I know in anime means something
Speaker 1: very sinister. I'm not gonna try and quote what that
Speaker 1: means because I'm not going to pretend to know all
Speaker 1: of it, but I do know that it means something
Speaker 1: sinister and something you know, crazy. And she did do
Speaker 1: a good job in her match versus Shana Basler, and
Speaker 1: I hate that she lost because they said they listed
Speaker 1: some sort of stat saying that it was her I
Speaker 1: believe her fiftieth singles match in WWE. But I am
Speaker 1: really excited for her in that regard. But I do
Speaker 1: want her to start winning more as a single star
Speaker 1: since she's busting out and wrestling a whole lot more.
Speaker 1: I just feel like she just has what it takes
Speaker 1: to be a top star at some point. And I
Speaker 1: feel like between her and me a m and also
Speaker 1: Chelsea Green, there needs to be a women's mid card
Speaker 1: title and I already wrote about it on my Daily
Speaker 1: DDT article. Please read it if you have it, And
Speaker 1: those are really three top contenders for that if they
Speaker 1: decided to create it. But I just don't want them
Speaker 1: to keep fighting for just air and for pride and
Speaker 1: all that stuff, like I want them to be on
Speaker 1: top and be champions and be workhorse, you know, champions
Speaker 1: the way that so many other champions are in terms
Speaker 1: of the men's division. And Zelena is definitely one of
Speaker 1: those girls. And she also had a very sentimental moment
Speaker 1: before her match. There was a fan who created a
Speaker 1: sign and I know you could probably barely see it
Speaker 1: because of the picture, but the sign had her father's
Speaker 1: name on it said Michael Trinidad has the best seat
Speaker 1: in the house. Nine to eleven oh one, never forget.
Speaker 1: And for those who don't know Zelena Vega, her father,
Speaker 1: Michael Trinidad, was killed in nine to eleven in the
Speaker 1: Twin Towers, and she has said multiple times that her
Speaker 1: and her father share great moments as wrestling fans together
Speaker 1: and that she always promised him, you know, that she would,
Speaker 1: you know, go on to succeed and do great things
Speaker 1: for him, you know, after he passed away and all
Speaker 1: of that, and she promised him multiple times, like I'm
Speaker 1: going to do that, I'm going to wrestle. And the
Speaker 1: idea that a fan thought enough of her to make
Speaker 1: this sign was just unbelievable. So big ups to whoever
Speaker 1: made that sign, whoever you are. That was beautiful and
Speaker 1: very thoughtful, and it made her visibly emotional. But she,
Speaker 1: of course, she had to get herself together because she
Speaker 1: had a match, but it was just so beautiful in
Speaker 1: terms of that sentimentality. Because it's a very painful thing
Speaker 1: to lose a parent. I've never lost a parent, but
Speaker 1: I've seen people who have, and it is it takes
Speaker 1: a lot out of you and it never gets easier.
Speaker 1: But even the older you get, it never gets easier.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, to see someone likes Zelena
Speaker 1: have gone through something like that, and to see her
Speaker 1: grow and make her dreams come true the way that
Speaker 1: she has, it's just been a beautiful, beautiful thing. And
Speaker 1: I hope that her father is watching and that he
Speaker 1: is very proud of her, and I hope that one
Speaker 1: day she will be on top. I'm still pushing for it.
Speaker 1: Her hashtag pushes Alina continues to be viral every day
Speaker 1: and hopefully, you know, we'll see more results from that.
Speaker 1: So I love Zelina Vega here. I always will. She'll
Speaker 1: always have my support, and I'm just really happy that
Speaker 1: she had this moment here. It's just really sweet. Big
Speaker 1: up to that fan. And then another thing, in terms
Speaker 1: of the men that happen on Raw, Drew McIntyre tried
Speaker 1: to commit murder. I feel like this week was an
Speaker 1: insane week for wrestling in terms of wrestlers trying to
Speaker 1: kill other wrestlers that they hate, and Drew McIntyre really
Speaker 1: started it off because CM polk was out there celebrating
Speaker 1: the fact that he won his strap. Magic is Drew.
Speaker 1: He was standing on top of the common terry desk
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden we see a hooded figure
Speaker 1: attack him, but we knew who it was because, of course,
Speaker 1: with the jacket open, we saw those abs and it
Speaker 1: was Drew McIntire's abs, and he proceeds to attack him,
Speaker 1: break the actual bracelet and choke him out with it.
Speaker 1: And it was just like, oh my god, he's trying
Speaker 1: to kill him. He's trying to choke him. Seeing Punk
Speaker 1: was beating, was bleeding out of his throat, it was
Speaker 1: very scary. It was just insane. He kept attacking him
Speaker 1: even when he was on the paramedic stretcher. It was bad.
Speaker 1: So because this attack has gotten really bad, I'm hoping
Speaker 1: that at Bad Blood they put them in Hell in
Speaker 1: his celf. I'm really hoping for that. I am seriously
Speaker 1: hoping for a Hell in the Cell match between Punk
Speaker 1: and McIntyre and Live and Rhea, because it is just
Speaker 1: it's just gone too far at this point. It's too
Speaker 1: far and they just need to just end each other.
Speaker 1: And that's the best way to end your person is
Speaker 1: in helen his self. So yeah, I'm excited about this.
Speaker 1: I hope seeam Punk comes back and says I want
Speaker 1: you in Helen to sell you mother effort. But you
Speaker 1: know it's gonna be okay, it's gonna be cool. But
Speaker 1: this was very strange to watch. And then another thing
Speaker 1: I liked from Raw was the fact that Sammy Zain
Speaker 1: decided to challenge guter for the World Heavyweight title because,
Speaker 1: of course, if you may or may not remember, because
Speaker 1: wrestling months feels like a whole year in wrestling time,
Speaker 1: Sammy's Ain is the only person to defeat Gunter in
Speaker 1: one on one action. He beat him for the Intercontinental title,
Speaker 1: but after he lost it to braun Breaker, he's been
Speaker 1: trying to get himself together lately and figure out what's
Speaker 1: next for him, right, so he decides that he wants
Speaker 1: to come after Gunter for the title, and Gunterer was
Speaker 1: low key playing around with him and saying that he
Speaker 1: didn't want to fight him, and Sammy told him, look,
Speaker 1: the only reason you're ducking me is because you know
Speaker 1: I'm the only person to ever truly defeat you. And
Speaker 1: he's right, He's absolutely right about that. But the thing
Speaker 1: I love the most about this is just Sammy Zain
Speaker 1: shooting his shot for the big one, and that's something
Speaker 1: that has frustrated me since he's been called up to
Speaker 1: the main roster is the fact that Sammy Zain has
Speaker 1: never won the Big One, and the last time he
Speaker 1: had a chance to win a Big One in his
Speaker 1: home country he lost because it was during Roman reigns
Speaker 1: is Raw of Terror. But he's never won the Big One.
Speaker 1: He's been an NXT champion before, and a lot of
Speaker 1: people who knew him, you know, from the Ring of
Speaker 1: Honor Dais and from the Indies and stuff, really hoped
Speaker 1: that he would, you know, wind up on top as well,
Speaker 1: especially since since his best friend Kevin Olways wind up
Speaker 1: on top as well. But that hasn't happened for him yet.
Speaker 1: So if he were to actually beat Gunter for that title,
Speaker 1: it would be sick and it would be an incredible
Speaker 1: accomplishment for someone like him. He would be the perfect
Speaker 1: work Worce champion for that. But because Guter is Guter,
Speaker 1: I don't know, and because the antie has been upped,
Speaker 1: I don't know. But either way, I'm glad that Sammy
Speaker 1: is throwing his hat in the ring. I'm really glad
Speaker 1: that he is. But there was something else interesting that
Speaker 1: took place with Gunter this night as well. But I'll
Speaker 1: get into that a little bit later. I just loved
Speaker 1: watching Jay, Rhea and Damien Yeet together after winning their
Speaker 1: tag team match. And I just want to say I
Speaker 1: was one hundred percent right in April when I said
Speaker 1: that it would be cool if Jay and Ria were
Speaker 1: a couple, and some of y'all online thought that that
Speaker 1: was the worst idea ever. Well, here it is manifested.
Speaker 1: Y'all gonna stop playing with me. But either way, I
Speaker 1: am so happy that we're getting this possible new couple
Speaker 1: content because Rhea clearly deserves better and Jay defended her
Speaker 1: honor against bron Breaker on Raw as well. And I
Speaker 1: just can't wait to see it because I'm a romantic.
Speaker 1: I can't I just can't wait to see it blossom
Speaker 1: into a relationship that's just gonna be cute. I can't wait.
Speaker 1: I can't wait. But watching him Yeet together was fun.
Speaker 1: I loved it. But speaking of Gunter, he had a
Speaker 1: little bit of an encounter with Kobe Kingston, right, and
Speaker 1: of course we talked about the Odyssey Jones situation. Now,
Speaker 1: a lot of people were probably under the impression that
Speaker 1: maybe the whole New Day dissension story would be over
Speaker 1: with right. But I'm gonna sit here and tell you
Speaker 1: it's not over because when this shot came on between
Speaker 1: Kobe Kingston and Adam Pierce, he was negotiating having a
Speaker 1: tag team title match with the judgment Day for him
Speaker 1: an Exavier. But the key part about this is it
Speaker 1: is the fact that Xavier was not present for that,
Speaker 1: which might possibly mean that Kofe did not talk to
Speaker 1: Xavier about this tag team title opportunity. Also, there's a
Speaker 1: second clue to go along with this. Kobe Kingston in
Speaker 1: this shot you can't see it, he had on a
Speaker 1: gold Maajen symbol necklace. I know this because my boyfriend
Speaker 1: has the exact same necklace because in the moment when
Speaker 1: I saw the necklace, I was like, wait, that's Jock's necklace.
Speaker 1: But it's a purpose behind it, because for those who
Speaker 1: know dragonball z lore, the Majin symbol is a sign
Speaker 1: of evil. It's basically like you're trading your soul for
Speaker 1: all power and evil essentially, and for Kofe to be
Speaker 1: wearing that symbol, it's very dastardly. And then on top
Speaker 1: of that, you have him having this encounter with Guter,
Speaker 1: who is the world heavyweight champion, and Kofe has not
Speaker 1: had an opportunity to be a big, big champion since
Speaker 1: the last time he won. With kofe Mania and all that,
Speaker 1: I feel like all of this is going to tie
Speaker 1: in somehow with the dissension that the New Day is having.
Speaker 1: Then on top of that, Xavier was his birthday was Wednesday,
Speaker 1: just like mine. He and I have the same birthday,
Speaker 1: and Xavier made a post talking about how happy it
Speaker 1: was it was his birthday and how he's grateful for
Speaker 1: friends who weren't late in wishing him a happy birthday.
Speaker 1: Then you fast forward to the next day, Kofe makes
Speaker 1: his post saying happy birthday to Xavier with these low
Speaker 1: quality pictures of him, and none of the pictures are
Speaker 1: them together in a picture. So this story is definitely
Speaker 1: still gonna be a thing, but it's not gonna have
Speaker 1: Odyssey Jones in the middle of it. And I'm more
Speaker 1: than sure that if Kofe is going to be the
Speaker 1: one to go bad, he's gonna go after Singles Gold
Speaker 1: and he's gonna go after Gunter and it's gonna be insane,
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be crazy, or Xavier might turn on him,
Speaker 1: But I do feel it interesting. I find it interesting
Speaker 1: that Kofe was the one wearing the MAJN symbol. And
Speaker 1: I know y'all might think it's crazy, but it's a
Speaker 1: level of storytelling that works if you watch television and
Speaker 1: no pop culture a little bit too hard like I do.
Speaker 1: It makes sense. So I know that sounded like a
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory, but it makes sense. Everything in wrestling at
Speaker 1: this point makes sense, and it's gonna make sense. I
Speaker 1: promise it's gonna make sense. But Yo, this play with
Speaker 1: my mind and I loved it, so it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a movie. So yeah. And then he tweeted this as well.
Speaker 1: He tweeted the Majen symbol on Super Saiyan Begeta's head.
Speaker 1: This was my day, Clockett, Clockett. Now moving on to NXT.
Speaker 1: I love the fact that Tatum Pasley and Lyra Valkyria
Speaker 1: are friends again. This was something that I was not
Speaker 1: expecting because Lyra had been on Raw and stuff and
Speaker 1: she is preparing for her match with Zelina Vega against
Speaker 1: a Pure Fusion Collective next week, but I was not
Speaker 1: expecting her to pop up back on NXC again and
Speaker 1: fight for the fight for Tatum Paxley against Wendy Chew
Speaker 1: and Rosemary. I was not expecting that at all, but
Speaker 1: it was a great surprise and I loved it. And
Speaker 1: the thing that I loved the most about Tatum Paxley's
Speaker 1: match against Wendy Chew is the fact that you could
Speaker 1: see all of Daphne's influence in that and it was
Speaker 1: just definitely giving Daphne's daughters And for those who might
Speaker 1: not know who Daphne is, I suggest you google her.
Speaker 1: She was an amazing female wrestler who was ahead of
Speaker 1: her time, and she's sadly no longer with us. This
Speaker 1: week actually marked I think maybe three or four years
Speaker 1: since she's passed, so we definitely send thoughts and healing
Speaker 1: to her friends having to deal with that situation. But
Speaker 1: her influence is definitely still felt throughout and it was
Speaker 1: definitely giving that throughout this match. But yeah, I was
Speaker 1: happy to see them be friends again and the fact
Speaker 1: that Lyra was carrying her out like a bride was
Speaker 1: just really funny, so it was cute. I loved it.
Speaker 1: And then I also loved that Jada Parker actually beat
Speaker 1: Jasmine Nix after the little encounter that she had with
Speaker 1: the fatal influence. But then they jumped her afterward and
Speaker 1: beat up on her even as she was injured, and
Speaker 1: I was just really irritated by that. So that means
Speaker 1: that Jada Park is gonna have to get some friends now.
Speaker 1: She did low key try to recruit Meechin on Twitter,
Speaker 1: but of course we got to see how that turns out.
Speaker 1: But I was glad that Jada still looked strong even
Speaker 1: after her defeat against Roxanne Perez for the title, so
Speaker 1: it was still really good and I appreciated it. And
Speaker 1: then of course Julia went face to face with her
Speaker 1: with Roxanne and challenged her for the title at NXT
Speaker 1: on the CW in October. So I talked a lot
Speaker 1: about that in news and gossip Fish. But either way,
Speaker 1: this is exciting stuff and I'm just here for women's
Speaker 1: wrestling is at its peak right now and I love it.
Speaker 1: Now Now now, now I got to sit here and
Speaker 1: talk about what this grown man said. The NXT North
Speaker 1: American Champion Champion Oba Femmi the Ruler defeated Tony DiAngelo
Speaker 1: at NX No Mercy for the title, and he had
Speaker 1: to fight harder than he normally has to fight, you know,
Speaker 1: to retain the title. Was pretty crazy, but Tony DiAngelo
Speaker 1: is really good and he actually mashed up with him
Speaker 1: in terms of strength and it was cool. But Alba
Speaker 1: and Tony DiAngelo don't seem to be finished with each other.
Speaker 1: And Alba actually confronted the DiAngelo family backstage on NXT
Speaker 1: and he said something to Adriano Rizzo that really made
Speaker 1: me mad. He literally said to her after she spoke
Speaker 1: her piece, and said, in my culture, or I think,
Speaker 1: or in some cultures, I'm just paraphrasing, the woman is
Speaker 1: meant to be seen and not heard, And of course
Speaker 1: that insulted her. The d'angela family didn't like that, and
Speaker 1: Stex went out there to fight oba Femi, you know,
Speaker 1: for Adriana Rizzo's honor. And I appreciated that, but I
Speaker 1: did not like the Obafemi said that, And of course
Speaker 1: there were people on social media who were calling me
Speaker 1: sensitive and saying, so what, he's a heel bla blah.
Speaker 1: I don't care. I still didn't like it because I
Speaker 1: feel like saying something like that to a woman who
Speaker 1: was actually standing up to you is weak. It is
Speaker 1: absolutely weak, because that just goes to show you that
Speaker 1: you and your fragile ego cannot stand the fact that
Speaker 1: a woman is standing up to you in the way
Speaker 1: that a man would and you just can't stand it.
Speaker 1: Number two, in twenty twenty four, men should not be
Speaker 1: saying that to women, especially in NXT, where a woman
Speaker 1: is the general manager and basically calling all the shots,
Speaker 1: and the women are essentially the main attraction on that
Speaker 1: show most of the time and are main inventing most
Speaker 1: of the episodes a lot of the time. Anyway, So, sweetheart,
Speaker 1: the fact that he whoever wrote that for him to say,
Speaker 1: or if he thought of himself of saying that, y'all
Speaker 1: should have just kept that in the chamber and just
Speaker 1: never shot it off. It's twenty twenty four. Women can
Speaker 1: say and do whatever the hell we damn wear please,
Speaker 1: And I'm so sorry I'm cursing, but that's just how
Speaker 1: passionate I feel about it. We literally have a woman
Speaker 1: running for president right now. How in the world can
Speaker 1: you sit here and say, oh, well, some women are
Speaker 1: like are meant to be seen and not hurt? What
Speaker 1: the f is wrong with you? Like? That just made
Speaker 1: me so upset because that gives off the impression that
Speaker 1: only women are meant to be looked at as pretty
Speaker 1: things or looked at as attractive things, and not meant
Speaker 1: to be heard because what we say isn't intelligent enough
Speaker 1: and isn't direct enough for you to want to listen to. No, baby,
Speaker 1: that's not how any of this works. And if anybody
Speaker 1: has a problem with me saying this, then well you
Speaker 1: can keep it. I don't care. We're all grown. I'm
Speaker 1: thirty one now, We're not gonna do this. So no,
Speaker 1: I didn't like it. I did not like it, and
Speaker 1: it just makes no sense. Women have come too far
Speaker 1: in wrestling and in the world period for you to
Speaker 1: even be saying stuff like that. And I understand its scripted,
Speaker 1: and I do understand that he's a heel. I know
Speaker 1: how characters work. I know this, but I still didn't
Speaker 1: like it. And yeah, he was doing his job to
Speaker 1: get a reaction out of me. I get that. I
Speaker 1: know that's part of the game. But I still didn't
Speaker 1: like it. I'm a female viewer. Find something else to say, anyway.
Speaker 1: Moving on, something else that I did like in NXC
Speaker 1: with the Men is the fact that Ashanta the Adonnas
Speaker 1: and Eddie Thorpe are fighting and beefing with each other
Speaker 1: because Eddie Thorpe just likes being friends with women, and
Speaker 1: Ashanta the Adonnas doesn't understand because he is always constantly
Speaker 1: trying to holler at women for the romantic side. And
Speaker 1: it's hilarious because there are men like this in real
Speaker 1: life who feel like they just can't be friends with women,
Speaker 1: and it's just so sad, Like it's really sad, like,
Speaker 1: I feel like you don't have to always try to
Speaker 1: get something out of a woman, Like you can literally
Speaker 1: just talk to a woman as just a friend or
Speaker 1: as just a person and it's okay. And the fact
Speaker 1: that Ashanti is mad at Adie Thorpe for just not
Speaker 1: pursuing things with women, it's just hilarious to me. So
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see where this goes. But either way,
Speaker 1: I just think it's really funny how this has taking place,
Speaker 1: But it's still a very realistic story. Nonetheless, it's very
Speaker 1: realistic because there are men out there who really feel
Speaker 1: like they can't be in the company of a woman
Speaker 1: without trying to holler at them. And it's just like, sweetheart,
Speaker 1: find something else to do. But yeah, it's I think
Speaker 1: it's cool now to a w and murder and criminal
Speaker 1: acts on Wednesday, I wasn't watching Dynamite because I was
Speaker 1: out for my birthday, And it's amazing looking at wrestling
Speaker 1: from a social media perspective when you're not watching it
Speaker 1: live on television. And of course, earlier in the day
Speaker 1: they showed how Swerve Strickland bought his childhood home, and
Speaker 1: of course he was standing there with Prince nine nine.
Speaker 1: He talked about what it meant for him and his
Speaker 1: family and all of the above, and that was a
Speaker 1: really sweet sentiment, a nice little you know clip that
Speaker 1: they showed during the show and even before the show
Speaker 1: even came on online and stuff. Right, So all of
Speaker 1: this niceness just goes out the window when you see
Speaker 1: Hangman Adam Page burn the house down. Now, from my perspective,
Speaker 1: I was at I was out and I was at
Speaker 1: a bar and I saw a house on fire, and
Speaker 1: I was just like, what's going on on Dynamite, what
Speaker 1: is happening? And then I saw that it was it
Speaker 1: was Hangman burning down Swerves house, and I was like,
Speaker 1: oh my god. The thing things that happened when I
Speaker 1: don't watch this is a running joke that I have.
Speaker 1: I just feel like crazier things tend to happen when
Speaker 1: I don't watch wrestling, Like it's just insane. How this
Speaker 1: man took some gas and burned his house down, which
Speaker 1: of course led to them having the mask that they
Speaker 1: had yesterday in a steelcasion was Life's out and they
Speaker 1: were trying to kill each other with needles and all
Speaker 1: the things, like they just hate each other real bad,
Speaker 1: and oh my god, just this image just I feel
Speaker 1: like this image is definitely gonna live forever in wrestling history.
Speaker 1: If there's ever gonna be a wrestling history book written
Speaker 1: about the past thirty years, this picture is gonna make it.
Speaker 1: It's definitely gonna make it because it's just iconic looking.
Speaker 1: And then Keicks shout out to her all the lee
Speaker 1: Keiks tweeted and said, I wonder if he was drinking,
Speaker 1: Sir Davis. That's Beyonce's new whiskey that she put out
Speaker 1: on our birthday. And I said, look, if I came
Speaker 1: drinking tonight, then he came, So that was funny. But
Speaker 1: either way, we're burning down houses in twenty twenty four,
Speaker 1: and we're burning down houses. If you don't like a person,
Speaker 1: we're committing arson. Apparently that's the lesson that we're learning
Speaker 1: this week, but either way, it was funny. And then
Speaker 1: another thing I liked from wrestling this week is the
Speaker 1: fact at Ariana Grace and Carmen Petrovic decided to show
Speaker 1: up on TNA and answer the open challenge that Jordan
Speaker 1: Grace has been having for the TNA Knockouts title. She
Speaker 1: did a great job, and even Jordan Grace went on
Speaker 1: Twitter and talked about how amazing she is and how
Speaker 1: in the next few years, how she's going to be
Speaker 1: a problem, and I'm really happy for her in that regard.
Speaker 1: So of course, you know, she might not have won,
Speaker 1: but at least she had the great opportunity of doing
Speaker 1: so and exposing herself to a new audience. So big
Speaker 1: ups to Carmen Petrovitch for it, and big ups to
Speaker 1: Ariana Grace for being a complete clown that she is
Speaker 1: and doing her thing. So I really enjoyed these two
Speaker 1: popping up on TNA. And then of course Friday was
Speaker 1: the final SmackDown on Fox, and they made a big
Speaker 1: to do out of it, making clips and talking about
Speaker 1: the best moments that have happened since SmackDown moved over
Speaker 1: the Fox and everything, and it's crazy to think that
Speaker 1: it's been five years, but yeah, and it really has
Speaker 1: been five years since they did it, and of course
Speaker 1: they're moving to USA this coming week in Seattle, Washington,
Speaker 1: and it's just really interesting to think about all the
Speaker 1: moments that happened from Roman reigns going from being covered
Speaker 1: with dog food by King Corbin to becoming the tribal chief,
Speaker 1: to Bailey and Mercedes Sasha being the golden role models
Speaker 1: at her you know, and Bailey even Turney Hill on
Speaker 1: this iteration of SmackDown. Like, there's just been lots of
Speaker 1: amazing moment moments here. So the idea that it's no
Speaker 1: longer going to be on Fox, it's just really crazy.
Speaker 1: And then you have the social media component of it
Speaker 1: as well, because don't be on foxes social media have
Speaker 1: been hitting on a lot of culturally relevant things and
Speaker 1: comparing it to wrestling a lot, and it was very enjoyable.
Speaker 1: But now it's over. It's over. It's an era that's ending.
Speaker 1: This is this September is a huge season of change,
Speaker 1: of radical change at that. So I do and am
Speaker 1: happy you know that it's that it's moving, but we
Speaker 1: had lots of good moments on Fox, and it's just
Speaker 1: gonna be really cool for it to change over to USA,
Speaker 1: and we're going to get lots of wrestling on USA
Speaker 1: until of course, Raw Moose to Netflix next year, so yeah,
Speaker 1: we just get to watch wrestling on one channel until
Speaker 1: then NXT moves to CW. So it's just a lot
Speaker 1: of change happening this fall, but we live for it.
Speaker 1: That's what wrestling is all about. It's all about the
Speaker 1: things that make us feel at home, and it's all
Speaker 1: about the changes that happen and being able to adapt
Speaker 1: to them. So it's good stuff and that's pretty much
Speaker 1: all I liked in wrestling this week. So of course
Speaker 1: we're moving into the end of our time together. So
Speaker 1: of course, if you have not already watched Stephan Cat
Speaker 1: Talk Wow, a show that I co host with my
Speaker 1: friend and tag team partner Katrina from Encat, we trust
Speaker 1: when we talk about the ins and out of Wow Superheroes.
Speaker 1: We're doing a double dose episode this week because last
Speaker 1: Wednesday was my birthday and I wanted to celebrate it.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna be talking about the last two episodes
Speaker 1: of season two because season three is getting started real soon,
Speaker 1: so I'm really excited about that. So if you have
Speaker 1: not watched any of our episodes of stephan Cant Talk Wow,
Speaker 1: please do so and watch all of our interviews that
Speaker 1: we have done from this past season with a lot
Speaker 1: of the Wild Superheroes and those formerly with Wow as well.

Speaker 1: showing them love on social media. It's really great. So
Speaker 1: please watch stephan Kat Talk Wow and watch Wild Superheroes
