Speaker 1: If it's good enough for WWE, that's good enough for me,
Speaker 1: all right? Oh shit, theme of the Night Baby, theme
Speaker 1: of the Knight.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I I guess all the abilities for me to.
Speaker 2: I mean I spent a good hour and a half
Speaker 2: kind of making fun of the AW show to some
Speaker 2: extent yesterday. Yeah, but what Well, I don't know if
Speaker 2: I even have that leverage to make fun of them
Speaker 2: more or less than w W at this point. I mean, truly,
Speaker 2: it's it's something else, dude, Like, right, how about that?
Speaker 2: I mean, how about that main event? But how about
Speaker 2: that main event? Wow? She's you know, yeah, damn, mister
Speaker 2: personality there Jalenson, Oh my god? What is what is
Speaker 2: it with people that have watched wrestling their whole lives
Speaker 2: but still have no fucking body language or like they
Speaker 2: can't zero facial expressions like did you you picked up
Speaker 2: nothing watching this?
Speaker 1: Well, he's I don't think he's a.
Speaker 2: Fan, Yeah, no, he is. He's a huge Jalen Brunson
Speaker 2: is like a legit w W fan. The fucking I
Speaker 2: don't know if Kat is like, uh, she's he might
Speaker 2: be uh, he might be a fan of a fucking
Speaker 2: I don't know. Uh, gaber petten or something, because he
Speaker 2: looked like he was in a catatonic state for half
Speaker 2: of that thing. More than that, what was that wake up?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I thought a badass, you know, representing New York. He's
Speaker 1: he's hard, he's built, New York's tough, Joe, And I
Speaker 1: was like, wow, Wow, that's wow. What at a presence?
Speaker 2: And Jesus usually well mish, I mean, as a Northeast
Speaker 2: guy that hates to give credit to New Yorkers, I
Speaker 2: don't like doing it, but New York is at least
Speaker 2: known for people with big attitudes and personality. Didn't get
Speaker 2: the loud voice, Yeah, I know, Jesus, Oh.
Speaker 1: I got was attitude. I was like, wow, this guy,
Speaker 1: Look look at the attitude he's showing.
Speaker 2: Oh what was that attitude? Almost in a coma, My God,
Speaker 2: please wake up, buddy, Like I this is what drives
Speaker 2: me fucking crazy about this outside of it being like, Okay,
Speaker 2: he's a wrestling fan, so maybe he should have some
Speaker 2: idea what to do with his his face, his body,
Speaker 2: his arms.
Speaker 1: But you don't know which wrestling fan or wrestler he's
Speaker 1: a fan of. Maybe he's a fan of the Undertaker,
Speaker 1: and he was giving us is maybe he's a fan
Speaker 1: of Festus, I mean early Caane, My god, wake up, dude,
Speaker 1: And like he seems like he's a great guy. Like
Speaker 1: this isn't just like blind New York sports fan made
Speaker 1: or something. He seems like a real good kid. But
Speaker 1: I'm like, you're a wrestling fan, you're a professional athlete
Speaker 1: that's in front of people, and you're in your hometown
Speaker 1: building full of fans that love you, and you still
Speaker 1: looks like you were fucking like just completely confused and
Speaker 1: nervous the whole time. What what the fuck? Maybe I
Speaker 1: also have a thery about this, an awesome theory if
Speaker 1: you will. Uh, maybe Roman prepped him.
Speaker 2: Maybe listen over got over Shadow the OTC. Are you
Speaker 2: kidding me? Roman Reigns put that guy more over in
Speaker 2: that promo than he has any wrestler he's worked in
Speaker 2: the past fifteen years.
Speaker 1: Oh I know, geez.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he hasn't talked about his family members that way
Speaker 2: in the ring. Finally a champion and a true warrior
Speaker 2: and all this other shit. Jay Uso is at home
Speaker 2: fucking punching a walls listening to Hinder right now.
Speaker 1: I don't love my dad as much as I love you,
Speaker 1: Tyrese Haliburton, and he's like, I'm Jalen Brunson.
Speaker 2: He's like so so yeah, closed off.
Speaker 1: Oh shit, I'll.
Speaker 2: Give you know what I'll give. I love you all right,
Speaker 2: you're the boss, Magic Johnson. You look great. You look
Speaker 2: great for sixty and with the whole you know thing.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: He just looks at him. He's like, hey, Magic, you
Speaker 2: want to be blood brothers. Just kidding. We're going went
Speaker 2: out tonight. We're going to half a fight. Yeah, this
Speaker 2: was that last segment. I'm telling you, I'll give all
Speaker 2: the credit in the world to Tyrese Halibert. At least
Speaker 2: he has emotions.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean, my god, I know the NBA guys, a
Speaker 2: lot of them aren't known for having personalities just because
Speaker 2: they're they've been getting their ass kissed their whole lives,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like they're like coddle old
Speaker 2: fucking but whatever. I'm just sitting there looking at this
Speaker 2: dude and I'm going it has taken legit over twenty
Speaker 2: five minutes between the end of the last match for
Speaker 2: Roman to say one word and Jalen Brunson is standing
Speaker 2: there looking like he's like he was court ordered to
Speaker 2: be there.
Speaker 1: You're also forgetting Joe. See again, it's very short sighted.
Speaker 1: You're forgetting about the five minutes of prattle that we
Speaker 1: had listening to Stephanie McMahon talk about all the exciting
Speaker 1: matches we saw tonight.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well that's it. That'll go to tell you. I
Speaker 2: will say this, it was a night of much bleeding.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of blood in these matches. Unintentionally, there's
Speaker 2: a lot of bleeding.
Speaker 1: There was a lot of bleeding at that main event
Speaker 1: when fucking Seth came out too. How's this saying?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, oh I feel like it's the main
Speaker 2: event is such an important thing to just kind of
Speaker 2: and for all the wrong reasons to get into it,
Speaker 2: because that's a segment that you're supposed to be doing
Speaker 2: with like the may is. You're not supposed to do
Speaker 2: that with the two guys that are in the main
Speaker 2: event of the building that you're selling that's seventy percent
Speaker 2: empty in two weeks, right, Like Seth coming out and
Speaker 2: having like a weird stare down with Roman and then
Speaker 2: you're a bland board NBA guy steps between them. It's like,
Speaker 2: this is ass. This is pure ass. And truthfully, like anybody,
Speaker 2: like I said, they wanted to be like, oh well
Speaker 2: you just don't like the because it's not your team
Speaker 2: or something like that. I like both of the NBA
Speaker 2: players in the ring more than the wrestlers, So I'm
Speaker 2: talking about it from that perspective.
Speaker 1: I was just thinking of how many people did they
Speaker 1: alienate that just didn't give a shit about either of
Speaker 1: these guys, Like this is something you do at fanatics fast, right,
Speaker 1: Like they just had Fanatics fascinating. We're sucking everybody off
Speaker 1: at Fanatics fascinating that Tom Brady thing, right, that's where
Speaker 1: you do that, and then you show clips of that
Speaker 1: during Saturday Nights. Made it and that's fine, Like that
Speaker 1: would have been like if they would have dedicated five
Speaker 1: minutes to showing like, oh look, Roman brought him out.
Speaker 1: There's a title and Seth said something like that would
Speaker 1: have been fine if they would have had the little scuffle,
Speaker 1: But to have it as the main event of Saturday
Speaker 1: Night's main events just it felt alienating. Like I was joking,
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh man, those forty thousand empty seats at
Speaker 1: Summer Slam don't stand a chance, now, you know, Like.
Speaker 2: I am sure nobody. I don't even know. People in
Speaker 2: the building barely liked it. And like I said, this
Speaker 2: was a segment that you're supposed to do at the
Speaker 2: beginning of the show with the mizz and Dan Housen.
Speaker 1: Seriously, I'm fine with it. I was. Actually, it doesn't
Speaker 1: bother me that Roman and Seth were involved. It really doesn't.
Speaker 1: I understand it. They're doing the champion with the champion thing,
Speaker 1: and let's be honest, Roman and Seth can use whatever
Speaker 1: main events, mainstream media coverage they can possibly get. Right,
Speaker 1: Dan Housen and Our Truth were going around doing Dan
Speaker 1: Housen's uncursing ritual or whatever parade. That was cute. That
Speaker 1: was fine. That was a little segment to throw in
Speaker 1: between the commercials. I was okay with that. That's perfectly fine.
Speaker 1: I have no problem with, you know, associating these New
Speaker 1: York icons that people like Roman and Seth. That's fine too.
Speaker 1: It's just it shouldn't be the whole that the summary
Speaker 1: of the show.
Speaker 2: Right, And dude, I'm telling you though, I get like,
Speaker 2: I know what you're saying with Roman and Seth and
Speaker 2: then these are the main guys, these are the stars.
Speaker 2: That which is why they aren't selling out Summer Slim,
Speaker 2: but these are supposed to be the big stars, so short, great,
Speaker 2: well whatever, But if we're gonna do something where we're
Speaker 2: tailoring it even that much directly to the Madison Square
Speaker 2: audience and to the New York Knicks and to the
Speaker 2: fanatics fest that happened and the sports tie ins in
Speaker 2: this moment, Dan Hausen would have actually made more sense
Speaker 2: and has had more exposure on ESPN. Actually, no, let
Speaker 2: me take that bet because Seth no, no, I forgot
Speaker 2: Seth did all the shit on ESPN. I forgot about that.
Speaker 1: So oh yeah he's a big Gary Bears fan.
Speaker 2: Now, so yeah, he's a big Indiana guy. But that's
Speaker 2: it made just made no fucking say, I get it.
Speaker 2: It's not supposed to make sense. It's supposed to be
Speaker 2: a feel good moment. But this is like shit you
Speaker 2: do on indie shows. You're not doing this with the
Speaker 2: main event, fucking talent and Madison Square Garden. And like
Speaker 2: I said, there was twenty five minutes between the end
Speaker 2: of the last match until he got to the fucking ring.
Speaker 2: Like even the people in the building, I'm like they
Speaker 2: got to even be sitting there, like come on now
Speaker 2: you know.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2: These are New Yorkers too. Once again, I hate to.
Speaker 1: Stay to people. Very low voice, it's very calm, patient, patient.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, they're known. They're known for their like, hey,
Speaker 2: take your time, we're just chilling here, you know, give
Speaker 2: me a fucking break, Give me a break, dude, and
Speaker 2: like it's just not particularly well, it's not well done.
Speaker 2: And like I said, at least Tyrus Aliburton seems like
Speaker 2: he was invested in being there. And kudos to just
Speaker 2: jump around here, Kudos to fucking cat, and kudos to
Speaker 2: JD for that bump, because their motherfucker hit a choke
Speaker 2: slam that looked that looked better than half the fucking
Speaker 2: people trying to hit real choke slams. I see on
Speaker 2: shows so good good on cats physical.
Speaker 1: And that's like a JD staple at this point. He
Speaker 1: can make anyone look good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, other than himself of course, physically. But the wife
Speaker 2: saw him, she goes, God, his hat is crazy. I go, honey,
Speaker 2: I know. I'm like, but that's just him. I'm like,
Speaker 2: that's what his fucking head. I mean, he just looks
Speaker 2: like that. I'm like, but he's a he's a fucking
Speaker 2: great hands. He's a great wrestler. He's not I'm.
Speaker 1: Saying what he's willing to do to himself, how selfless
Speaker 1: the guy is, like, there's just no is there a
Speaker 1: bad JD match? Is there?
Speaker 2: Oh? He's done great, he's been He has put in
Speaker 2: a lot of goddamn work and that's why I think
Speaker 2: he gets featured as much as he does, and he
Speaker 2: gets trusted for spots like that. But they used him
Speaker 2: better than whatever. There's awkward, ass fucking Brunson thing was.
Speaker 2: And like I said, Roman's out there like a true
Speaker 2: hero and champion and man of the people, and he's
Speaker 2: the greatest guy that has ever lived. And I'm like,
Speaker 2: Roman doesn't. Roman does nothing for no one ever. And
Speaker 2: then randomly he's like here I am for this NBA guy.
Speaker 2: And then Brunson, like I said, he looks like he's
Speaker 2: half awake. He looks like weekend at Bernie's, Like, what
Speaker 2: is going on with this shit? It was the last
Speaker 2: half an hour of this show. And by the way,
Speaker 2: I still think it's funny because you were like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna hop on, I got the show. I'm like,
Speaker 2: oh no, dude, you gotta forget that they're doing a
Speaker 2: Roman talk segment.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, I totally forgot about that. I was
Speaker 1: ready to go. I was like, all right, you know what,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hit the bathroom, fucking rip this butt real
Speaker 1: quick and will fucking jump in the discord. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: they ended early for us, Joe. It's fucking great. They early.
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, Wrestling Soup's got to do a show today,
Speaker 1: so you know, like hey, and Joe's like, no, no,
Speaker 1: we got another fucking half hour of this shit.
Speaker 2: Another forty minutes waiting for all this shit to go on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because that's what what wasn't what it was on? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it had to have been about forty forty five minutes total.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well this is it. They don't take into consideration
Speaker 2: this stuff, what wwe that is. But the amount of time,
Speaker 2: once again, it took for that whole thing to happen,
Speaker 2: was like an entire episode of Breaking Bad and then
Speaker 2: like just sit there, just sit there and just watch this.
Speaker 2: You're like, this is insane.
Speaker 1: A lot of commercials tonight, Holy shit, a lot of
Speaker 1: commercials and a lot of dead space. So I mean
Speaker 1: when they weren't you know, when there were just just
Speaker 1: a lot of breaks, man, a lot of man man
Speaker 1: breaks too, like the ones that are specifically for WWE.
Speaker 2: Everything happens at a snail's pace on the show. It's
Speaker 2: so fucking tough to watch live because of that.
Speaker 1: Well, they give you such little content for what they
Speaker 1: expect you to sit there. So it's like, I'm all right,
Speaker 1: so I'm looking at the times, right, what have we
Speaker 1: got on time? So the pre show match with Trick
Speaker 1: and aw Kid seven fifteen, the first match with Fatal
Speaker 1: Influence and Page and mom Energy was seven fifteen, Dan
Speaker 1: Housen and JD was eleven minutes and thirty five seconds.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they really stretched that one out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Lyra and Bailey, I still don't have an actual time.
Speaker 1: I don't have that at a time on that in
Speaker 1: the CMPUNK one. Yeah, but I mean you're talking about
Speaker 1: all right, so that's already what twenty one minutes of
Speaker 1: shows twenty five minutes, and so what even if you
Speaker 1: threw in another thirty five minutes on top of that
Speaker 1: a little over an hour? Everything else is commercial and Roman.
Speaker 2: Reigns barely There was barely an hour, and like people
Speaker 2: know this as far as like the actual in ring
Speaker 2: matches and the length of them. Me and you weren't
Speaker 2: pocket watchers like that, Like we're not the people that
Speaker 2: are sitting there going like what, I want all the
Speaker 2: matches to go for fucking twenty five minutes. It's like, no, no,
Speaker 2: I'm good with the girls having a seven minute long
Speaker 2: tag match, but it shouldn't take twenty five minutes to
Speaker 2: get from the end of one match to the start
Speaker 2: of the next one. That's excessive. That's a little much.
Speaker 2: And yeah, like I was talking about being at the
Speaker 2: show on Thursday night, Yeah, sure, aw made me sit
Speaker 2: through fucking thirteen matches, but there wasn't the length of
Speaker 2: an episode of Alph Between every fucking match you had.
Speaker 1: Toss in your seat or else you would miss a match.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't need to bring a catheter to the show.
Speaker 2: Like it's like, oh my god, it is. It is
Speaker 2: way way too dragged out. All of this shit moves
Speaker 2: so slow. And to the people that watch this ship back,
Speaker 2: Like I think about the reviewers, like some of them
Speaker 2: like corny and shit where he's like, oh, he'll have
Speaker 2: like notes on it, and I'll be like, oh, go
Speaker 2: down him and he sits down and writes the notes,
Speaker 2: and I go, yeah, because he gets to fast forward
Speaker 2: through all the bullshit. So it's like, yeah, well, you
Speaker 2: know this only went that long. And I'm not blaming him,
Speaker 2: but I'm just saying, like, if we were able to
Speaker 2: sit there and fast forward through the ship on the show,
Speaker 2: like you said, it would have been under an hour
Speaker 2: yea under an hour ye.
Speaker 1: And like that, if we just went from bell to
Speaker 1: bell under an hour easy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, including like promos and ship too, because there was
Speaker 2: what I think maybe two or three promos on the show.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the O bow.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, so I feel like, I mean.
Speaker 1: We are kind of bouncing around all over the Yes.
Speaker 2: So did you watch the pre show though? Did you
Speaker 2: get to watch that?
Speaker 1: I watched that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that too. Man. I'll tell you I
Speaker 2: am rooting for Trick Williams, but I don't know if
Speaker 2: Trick Williams is rooting for Trek Williams. Because they got
Speaker 2: to get him in the fucking They gotta get him
Speaker 2: in the ring board, dude. They gotta get him practicing,
Speaker 2: because I know he's working with what is the uh,
Speaker 2: what is the what's the word I'm looking for here?
Speaker 2: You already called him the aw kid but yeah, that's
Speaker 2: a definition of some just random enhancement. Fucking blue cha guy, So.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I killed himself. And I know you
Speaker 1: were talking right off the beginning. You're like, this guy
Speaker 1: is fucking nervous out there. He's got nervous energy. He
Speaker 1: doesn't know what he's doing. There was a point when
Speaker 1: he jumped from uh I'm not sure if you're in
Speaker 1: the top rope or if he jump from the inside
Speaker 1: to the outside, but fucking Trick didn't catch him, so
Speaker 1: I don't know who was out of place. An he
Speaker 1: lands like fucking chest first right into the ground. Ye,
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I'm literally screaming at you. I'm like,
Speaker 1: is this guy fucking dead? And before I even finished
Speaker 1: my tees, he just bounced right back up, sprang up.
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, okay, o.
Speaker 2: Hey, I'm fine.
Speaker 1: I only broke fifteen bones, fifteen ribs, It's okay.
Speaker 2: So I'm not even like, I'm not focused on anything
Speaker 2: that guy's doing, because he's not going to make anybody
Speaker 2: a nickel and pro wrestling ever, But like, looking at
Speaker 2: Trick Williams man the basics on some of the shit
Speaker 2: that he's doing, it's worrying me because, like I said,
Speaker 2: I want to like him. I don't want to shit
Speaker 2: on him. I don't want to be like because I
Speaker 2: see so much of that raw potential like stink, cop
Speaker 2: and shit right, but just even some of the basic shit.
Speaker 2: Like right in the beginning of the match, he does
Speaker 2: a locked up and he puts the guy in the
Speaker 2: fucking headlock, and he backs him into the ropes. And
Speaker 2: when I tell you trick, Williams literally lets go of
Speaker 2: his heat and starts running. But he just way that
Speaker 2: out loud. I go, oh, like just oh, like it
Speaker 2: wasn't it wasn't like, oh, look at me, I'm making
Speaker 2: a keen observation. Let me flex on these motherfuckers because
Speaker 2: I know so much. It was quite literally, like what
Speaker 2: the fuck dude, this little ass guy that he's like
Speaker 2: nine inches fucking taller than and he backs me into
Speaker 2: the ropes and instead of like trying to hold onto
Speaker 2: his head and Laredo kid pushing him off and just
Speaker 2: making it look like, Okay, I'm leading you off so
Speaker 2: I can feed him for the shoulder tackle, he just
Speaker 2: straight up runs away from him. I'm like, this is
Speaker 2: like Wrestling School Week three type shit, dude, And it's
Speaker 2: once again it socks because I'm like, Trick, what the fuck, buddy,
Speaker 2: you gotta know better than this. But this is also
Speaker 2: why I guess they're putting him in the pre show
Speaker 2: against you know, Chubby fucking Lujah Jobbers, because what the fuck, dude,
Speaker 2: what the fuck? But this was you said, what seven minutes?
Speaker 1: Yeah, seven fifteen, that's the market and that.
Speaker 2: Was still too long. I mean, come on, he's some
Speaker 2: fucking random bum Lucia Door in triple A and he's
Speaker 2: going against this guy that's you're a champion and your company.
Speaker 2: I mean you said he's a half honestly.
Speaker 1: Good for Laredo kid for getting an MSG match, like.
Speaker 2: Shit, right, But apparently this is once again it's like
Speaker 2: aw shit, where I'm making fun of fucking Osprey wrestling
Speaker 2: the guy for fifteen minutes so nobody knows. It's like,
Speaker 2: why is Trick Williams, who I'm pushing, who I put
Speaker 2: a championship on, and yes, he's green as goose shit,
Speaker 2: but we've committed to the thing. Why is he even
Speaker 2: going seven minutes with this fucking guy that nobody knows?
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, why is he even on the show? Honestly,
Speaker 1: there's other people that they can put on there, you know, right,
Speaker 1: did everybody else just a segment or a fucking La
Speaker 1: night segment or you know, like I don't know, it's
Speaker 1: just yeah, Trick would not have been my pick for
Speaker 1: a pre show match, but that's what iBOT dom. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well I was busy. Dom was busy cucking for for
Speaker 1: JD Cat.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I forget, but like, yeah, that just even right
Speaker 2: from the pre show, I'm sitting there and I'm going, man,
Speaker 2: this is shindy. Shit, this is shindy. Like I don't
Speaker 2: like saying WWE does shindy stuff because it sounds so absurd,
Speaker 2: but that's shindy, you know. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I wonder this too. And I was thinking about that
Speaker 1: the other day when we were delving into like ai
Speaker 1: creative storylines that WWE has been doing lately. Do you
Speaker 1: think there's a chance that aw has existed now long
Speaker 1: enough that WWE thinks that aping their style in some
Speaker 1: way is going to bring them a w viewers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was going to get them there half a
Speaker 2: million oyal people, Yeah, maybe. But here's the thing is,
Speaker 2: in my best estimate is of the let's call it
Speaker 2: what it is, probably half a million people that watch
Speaker 2: AW regularly because they can say, oh, well they did
Speaker 2: seven hour a thousand or whatever. The fuck. Now there's
Speaker 2: still I still bet that two hundred something thousand people
Speaker 2: are in and out. You know, they sometimes they watch,
Speaker 2: sometimes they don't, you know. So if there's a half
Speaker 2: a million people in the country that regularly watch AW
Speaker 2: and are AW fans, I'd bet fucking three hundred thousand
Speaker 2: of them are watching everything that's got boots and tights.
Speaker 1: Anyways, Well, are we saying half a million people by
Speaker 1: like Nielsen standard ratings or are we talking about Netflix
Speaker 1: standard ratings because those are.
Speaker 2: Very That's true.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 2: I'm glad that now we're quantifying humanity that way. You know,
Speaker 2: are they really people if they can't be measured by
Speaker 2: a streaming service? I don't know.
Speaker 1: Easier, it's easier to cover up the bots that way, Joe.
Speaker 1: That's what it is.
Speaker 2: It's true. Life begins a conception to some people, and
Speaker 2: your value begins when you can be measured by a
Speaker 2: streaming service metric.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 2: So that's that's important.
Speaker 1: Dave's almost out of a job. Everybody. It's just.
Speaker 2: I can't wait. I cannot write.
Speaker 1: Fred in Ohio who goes to college says that the
Speaker 1: whole door was watching Dynamite this leak.
Speaker 2: All right, Dave Meltzer has every single college in America.
Speaker 2: He has all of their cable information.
Speaker 1: I give the free cable if they could tell me
Speaker 1: that they watched Collision this week.
Speaker 2: All right, days like I He's like, I have information
Speaker 2: to all of their cable networks. I have cameras and
Speaker 2: all of their bathroom stalls ill information.
Speaker 1: I've noticed a lot of the children like to watch
Speaker 1: a the toilet.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and richer people, not not poor people, only.
Speaker 1: The richest college students.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I know they're rich people too, because I watched
Speaker 2: them pooh and they wipe with money.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah no, this this was the opener. Get if
Speaker 1: you wipe with money, I've never tried wiping with money.
Speaker 1: Does money make you?
Speaker 2: Is it money?
Speaker 1: M o n e oh.
Speaker 2: Oh that reminds me. I gotta watch back the show.
Speaker 2: If I can see myself in the balcony for the
Speaker 2: aw making face as.
Speaker 1: I hope they recognized you and just censored your face.
Speaker 1: Just you. I won't be able to show if that
Speaker 1: guy is in the audience. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: I'm telling you. You know how everybody says that person
Speaker 2: in the crowd saw me, right, They're like, hey, I smiled,
Speaker 2: it as Sabrina Carpenter and she's me a kiss or something.
Speaker 2: Everybody in the crowd believes that. But I'm telling you
Speaker 2: I was given a huge fucking boo and thumbs down,
Speaker 2: and like I said, these crowds, now, nobody fucking booze.
Speaker 2: Not that there was no dissension whatsoever in that whole audience,
Speaker 2: with the exception of like a handful of people occasionally
Speaker 2: making noise.
Speaker 1: Not even tonight tonight, the majority of that show was
Speaker 1: pretty fucking quiet. And I saw people saying, oh, well,
Speaker 1: it's a bad crowd. It's it's fucking New York.
Speaker 2: It's New York City.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, this isn't like some random place in Georgia.
Speaker 1: It's god damn the mecca of wrestling.
Speaker 2: This po dunk town, you know, New York City.
Speaker 1: You ever hear of it? New York City in.
Speaker 2: This weird backwards ass arena called Madison Square Garden. You
Speaker 2: know what I mean, who's even heard of that? Jesus Christ? Yeah, no,
Speaker 2: the wrestling on.
Speaker 1: It's not making Georgia bitches, right.
Speaker 2: It's not happening at like the pet Co Arena or something.
Speaker 2: I think it's San Diego or some shit. I which
Speaker 2: I remember that that's crazy, but yeah, no, that was
Speaker 2: that was the first thing that people saw for pro
Speaker 2: wrestling tonight, So that's that's a good stock.
Speaker 1: But then we go to the opener, which was fatal
Speaker 1: Influence Lady Reid fell on Henley with Filthy JCJ defeating
Speaker 1: uh the tag team of mom Energy of Page and Bribella.
Speaker 2: I love I love the fact that poor Page, the
Speaker 2: like Page is like a mill and she's like, I
Speaker 2: don't have any kids. They're like, ah whatever, yeah, yeah, whatever,
Speaker 2: old bitch. And she's like, I'm like thirty two, and
Speaker 2: they're like, yeah, it's a hard thirty two. She is.
Speaker 1: She looks very skeletal. I hate saying that. I hate
Speaker 1: saying it. Page is a voluptuous woman once upon a time,
Speaker 1: but now she's I don't know when when she's in
Speaker 1: there falling down. I get nervous every time. It is
Speaker 1: a little I know there's no Sasha Banks anywhere near her,
Speaker 1: but I still worry. I worry about Page now. I
Speaker 1: don't watch her matches and go all right, Page, have
Speaker 1: a good match. Let's watch you go out there. I
Speaker 1: watch her and I go, oh, please, God, don't fucking Diejesu,
Speaker 1: dear lord, fucking just be okay, just are you.
Speaker 2: Afraid like the Baba duke that is Sasha Monet money
Speaker 2: is going to appear behind her or something.
Speaker 1: And no, I just like, she looks that frail, she
Speaker 1: looks like she needs to eat a sandwich, work out
Speaker 1: a bit, and knowing how badly damn it she was
Speaker 1: once upon a time, to the point of being fucking paralyzed,
Speaker 1: maybe it's difficult to watch her in the ring, Like
Speaker 1: it's just I can't watch her in the ring and
Speaker 1: want to watch her like I WinCE at her matches.
Speaker 2: And it's not. And it's not helped by putting her
Speaker 2: with breathe.
Speaker 1: Either, Yeah, no fucking strong veteran breathe. Yeah.
Speaker 2: You know, there's there's always that. There's always that move
Speaker 2: that I feel is a wrestling classic, well intended you know,
Speaker 2: tag team thing right where it's a trope almost where
Speaker 2: it's like, Okay, you got the guy who's a little
Speaker 2: bit older, a little more grizzled, and then you got
Speaker 2: the young guy that's more athletic. That takes to eat
Speaker 2: and ship and the matches who's doing that? And that
Speaker 2: tag too.
Speaker 1: You know, I have never wanted Nicky Bella to come
Speaker 1: back so badly.
Speaker 2: Jesus, Nicki needs to come in to provide some work rates,
Speaker 2: you know, well, you know, and for what it's worse,
Speaker 2: Nicki is not particularly good in any way, shape or
Speaker 2: for But at least she doesn't look like she's gonna
Speaker 2: fucking die every time she falls down. That's a good
Speaker 2: that's a good point. That's a glass half full, you know. No,
Speaker 2: for sure, she seems like she can fall down. I mean,
Speaker 2: we know from the husband she can take a couple
Speaker 2: of hits. But but she's all right, she's she's alright
Speaker 2: compared to what we're seeing there. But the other two.
Speaker 2: So I remember falling Henley, Yeah, yeah, the red I
Speaker 2: don't even know. Yeah, I didn't even know who the
Speaker 2: fuck she was, dude. Where I remember fallon Henley because
Speaker 2: of the because of the cowboy hat. Yeah. I remember
Speaker 2: seeing her an NXT and I was like, I should
Speaker 2: go looking girl, but she was doing the She's like,
Speaker 2: I'm just a country girl. And now I guess she's
Speaker 2: like a Yeah, now she's like a like a slutty
Speaker 2: country girl, but not at all. What is this now?
Speaker 1: She's uh, she's the light version. She's Jacy Jane's new bitches,
Speaker 1: that's what she Yeah.
Speaker 2: You know, not that I was, like ever the biggest, biggest,
Speaker 2: biggest fan of her. I always thought she was just
Speaker 2: kind of okay, why couldn't you do this? You couldn't
Speaker 2: do this with what's her face there? Darby Allen's x
Speaker 2: Gigi your giggee?
Speaker 1: Oh the her?
Speaker 2: I know, but why is she not on? Like she's
Speaker 2: looks more ready for TV than Laney Laney mcguellicotty.
Speaker 1: Well, like you said a long time ago, when you
Speaker 1: ever questioned that somebody has talent in the ring and
Speaker 1: they can talk on the mic and they look like
Speaker 1: a million bucks and the company still lets them go anyways,
Speaker 1: chances are they were a piece of ship in the back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was something going on personality wise, I'd assume,
Speaker 2: but that was like she's okay, like who's saying the
Speaker 2: street fighters, like, yeah she sucks. No, she's not that
Speaker 2: bad compared to some of these other people we see.
Speaker 2: If anything, she just always carried that stink upon intended
Speaker 2: of being the girl that mushed the tampon at somebody's mouth,
Speaker 2: like I was gonna not. I was gonna always associate
Speaker 2: her with that for some weird reason, you know, forcing
Speaker 2: mensis into people's mouths. I kind of that sticks up
Speaker 2: to me. But hey, you know, we all got yeah,
Speaker 2: we all got problems. Sometimes you make mistakes. You know.
Speaker 2: You know what if a guy, uh, you know, pulled
Speaker 2: out a fucking handful of hemorrhoid creed for his ass
Speaker 2: and smashed it into somebody's face, I wouldn't be like, yeah,
Speaker 2: but I now I remember other things about them. No,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna remember that time where he shoved his whole
Speaker 2: hand in his ass and smashed it into somebody's face.
Speaker 2: Like I'm sorry. That's it's going to kind of hang
Speaker 2: with me. I'm not going to be able to move
Speaker 2: past that and that first impression.
Speaker 1: If you will bring Sullivan matches a lot lately.
Speaker 2: It's just, uh, I know, he's you know, we're putting
Speaker 2: that into the into the universe. Maybe he needs to
Speaker 2: come back into the urethral. Like I said, the catheter,
Speaker 2: we're putting it into the MM slide it in, folks. Uh.
Speaker 1: It was an okay match for what it was jac
Speaker 1: Jane came in to help the fucking win and we
Speaker 1: got new tag team champions, which I'm I'm fine with.
Speaker 1: Maybe get them some exposure. They barely talked about. I
Speaker 1: like j C. Jane, but you know, like again, it's
Speaker 1: another women's group that's kind of going under the radar
Speaker 1: because WWE really doesn't know what the fuck they're doing.
Speaker 2: It seems like, you know, yeah, I don't know if
Speaker 2: it's on them or on me. But I learned the
Speaker 2: name of the woman who won the tag team. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I just learned her name, and I will repeat here
Speaker 2: what I said to you at the text is, uh,
Speaker 2: did they search her name up on the on the hub?
Speaker 1: She's Riley's little cousin, didn't you know? Oh, she's one
Speaker 1: of the reads. She's one of the very famous Riley
Speaker 1: Reid sisters.
Speaker 2: Oh well, I mean I all of her all of
Speaker 2: her offense is based around the corn hoole.
Speaker 1: Yeah, six inches are deeper, Yes.
Speaker 2: That's the flying ass of justice. Would that be finish?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: Okay, a lot of finishes. But no, this this was
Speaker 2: was what it was. You know, Like I said, I
Speaker 2: didn't even know who the fuck this girl was when
Speaker 2: she first came out, so some fantastic.
Speaker 1: Fast and then we go on to uh more commercial
Speaker 1: breaks at a lot of commercial breaks, but then we
Speaker 1: eventually got to Dan Housen versus Jad McDonough with Dominic
Speaker 1: mysterio coming out there with some Now was this all right?
Speaker 1: So I got the question is did Stephanie and Oba
Speaker 1: happen after the women's match or before the women's match?
Speaker 1: I think it happened before the women's match, right, I
Speaker 1: don't remember, but I don't think it was at this
Speaker 1: point that Stephanie came out there and Oba. She she
Speaker 1: invited Oba down there. By the way, it was part
Speaker 1: of the countdown show. Okay, all right, thank you. So
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure if it was like before the first
Speaker 1: match or whatever. So then it was after the the
Speaker 1: Laredo Kid Trick Williams match. But that was that was awkward.
Speaker 1: That was an awkward interview.
Speaker 2: First time Stephanie didn't smack him in the face. Yes,
Speaker 2: that's what I'm.
Speaker 1: Just not used to Stephanie giving people straight interviews. First off,
Speaker 1: that was weird. And then the fact that for whatever reason,
Speaker 1: she decided not to wear a bra, which is fine.
Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. We got leather top brawl is
Speaker 1: Stephanie is back right, Mama needs some attention. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: then she wears platforms or not platforms, like fucking stiletto
Speaker 1: heels or something, and she's almost as tall as Oba.
Speaker 1: Like Oba comes out there and there was a point
Speaker 1: where he just kind of leaned over a little bit
Speaker 1: and I'm like, you guys are exactly the same height.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that does not help. That does not help. Which
Speaker 2: that's one of those little you know, shouldn't be That
Speaker 2: shouldn't be an oversight that they're making when you're dealing
Speaker 2: with someone like Stephanie. But like I said, Stephanie out
Speaker 2: there doing an interview, you know, I'm surprised she didn't
Speaker 2: smack and then say, what are you going to do
Speaker 2: about a Bitchie?
Speaker 1: Thought she was because that's why she was his height. No, seriously,
Speaker 1: the reason she was wearing these big ass fucking heels
Speaker 1: is because she was gonna slap Oba Femi, because she
Speaker 1: went to be up high enough in order to hit
Speaker 1: him in the face. That was my thought process. So
Speaker 1: when you said that, I was like, yeah, of course,
Speaker 1: why wouldn't she Why else is she elevating four feet
Speaker 1: off the fucking ground.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, now, yeah, you're showing me the picture. I'm
Speaker 2: seeing it now in full scope. Yeah, she's wearing like
Speaker 2: four inch heels there. Not exactly the move to make
Speaker 2: when you know you're going to be interviewing the guy
Speaker 2: that's supposed to be seen as the next giant, right,
Speaker 2: you know. But but this is a WWE in twenty
Speaker 2: twenty six and it's Stephanie McMahon, which she's obviously just
Speaker 2: there for the outa boys. I don't think she's there
Speaker 2: for much of anything else other than the member berries
Speaker 2: and the police give me attention. That's my guess.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you know what, if she wants to
Speaker 1: install herself into w W again, that's fine. I'm not
Speaker 1: necessarily against it. I just I don't know if going
Speaker 1: out there and interviewing oba's the role for her. I
Speaker 1: was actually, you know what, and I know I was
Speaker 1: kind of cutting some bullshit on her earlier. I'm okay.
Speaker 1: If she wants to sit in the back and just
Speaker 1: chalk up fucking wasting time with Joe Tessitory all night,
Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. I don't give a shit, like
Speaker 1: if they want to sit there and do the Sam
Speaker 1: Roberts bit fucking go go Ham, don't care. That's fine.
Speaker 1: Like if you want to be that and we can
Speaker 1: watch you on like close captioning or something or alternate,
Speaker 1: you know, SAP or something that, that's fine, that's perfectly fine.
Speaker 1: It just I don't know putting her out there. She
Speaker 1: did she help Oba at all? Did anybody feel better
Speaker 1: about Oba after Stephanie asked him a bunch of questions?
Speaker 1: What questions did Stephanie ask Oba?
Speaker 2: I don't even remember anybody. The only thing I remember
Speaker 2: is him quoting Watchmen. That's all I remember. You are
Speaker 2: not trapped in there. I'm not trapped in there with you.
Speaker 2: You are trapped in there with me. And I was like, eh,
Speaker 2: boye uh, they need to slow down on having Oba
Speaker 2: do the promos every week.
Speaker 1: Oh it's just have him just him beat the shit
Speaker 1: out of people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like it's and this isn't even like a slight
Speaker 2: on him. It's just a matter of this guy is
Speaker 2: supposed to be known for kicking the fuck out of people.
Speaker 2: Let him squash somebody. I don't give a fuck who
Speaker 2: it is. Let him squash some people. Remember when they
Speaker 2: did the open challenge for him, It lasted a grand
Speaker 2: total of two weeks. They didn't even give him a
Speaker 2: chance for it to get over with people. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's what he should be doing the end, Like, that's all.
Speaker 2: It should be him going out there beating the shit
Speaker 2: out of somebody power bombing him. That's it. That's all
Speaker 2: it needs to be, nothing more, nothing less.
Speaker 1: Well, we go onto the Dan Housen and JD match.
Speaker 1: What did you think about that?
Speaker 2: Gota? I mean it was it was fine, JD. Whatever
Speaker 2: he's gonna do, it's gonna work. Okay, he's gonna make it.
Speaker 2: It's gonna make it fly. Obviously, Dan Housen gets a
Speaker 2: gets a good reaction because he's a character on the
Speaker 2: TV show that actually is a babyface. Imagine that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and the video package they did was actually really well done,
Speaker 2: the Dan Housen video package for you know, getting him hyped.
Speaker 2: Didn't I uncursed you with all that shit? I was like, okay, that.
Speaker 1: Was that was a little mafil something.
Speaker 2: You liked that, Yeah? I thought it was cute and
Speaker 2: not like in a demeaning way. I was like, oh
Speaker 2: that was good. That was like I liked what they
Speaker 2: did to kind of give a background to the people
Speaker 2: that may not have had a full understanding of the
Speaker 2: Dan Housen thing, which was probably what needed to be done,
Speaker 2: because imagine if you just turned on the television and
Speaker 2: saw that guy, you'd have been like, wait, I don't
Speaker 2: I say that, like if this was playing in a bar,
Speaker 2: but it's on Peacock Now. I don't even know if
Speaker 2: that's an option. I don't even know if like somebody
Speaker 2: could walk into a fucking Chili's or an Applebee's or
Speaker 2: something and they look on the TV and they're like, oh,
Speaker 2: look the wrestlings on. So it's weird for me to
Speaker 2: even come from that mindset of like, yeah, if you
Speaker 2: just happened to bump stumble into it. But no, Like
Speaker 2: I thought the video package was kind of cool and
Speaker 2: uh yeah, this was this is exactly what it needed
Speaker 2: to be. I think that the segment with kat was
Speaker 2: was good. I thought that actually came out well, yeah,
Speaker 2: I was ninety percent shady picking them up or you know,
Speaker 2: jumping into the air for em while he's getting picked up, right. Uh.
Speaker 2: The thing with Dom him going to the table was good.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I thought this was one of okay.
Speaker 1: With the the mini housings and shit too. Like that
Speaker 1: doesn't bother you after a while.
Speaker 2: It comes with It comes with the act, fair enough,
Speaker 2: It just comes with the act.
Speaker 1: And like I said that, I just I guess, I guess.
Speaker 1: My real problem is it feels like they're just starting
Speaker 1: to force Dominic into being a joke character, Like any
Speaker 1: potential of Dominic being taken seriously ever again is fading
Speaker 1: away fast. It really is.
Speaker 2: They're hoping, because of age, they can heat him up again,
Speaker 2: which I mean, you gotta, I guess you have to
Speaker 2: have faith in him if you're you know, if you're
Speaker 2: a fan of him and you're a fan of WWE
Speaker 2: we have to be like, Okay, I trust that they'll
Speaker 2: be able to figure out something for Dominic again. But
Speaker 2: you're not wrong. We are kind of heading in a
Speaker 2: very post push miss direction for him, and uh, I.
Speaker 1: Don't know anything wrong, which is even more fucked up.
Speaker 1: That'd be one thing if he did something wrong, but.
Speaker 2: Didn't he Oh no, I think he helped JD a
Speaker 2: couple of times starting the match. I think he did
Speaker 2: cheat a couple of times, So that's okay. I mean
Speaker 2: it's like he's cheating, so that Dan Housen does the
Speaker 2: clone machine and then you know, hey, like I said,
Speaker 2: Karl Anthony towsand came out and they did the camera
Speaker 2: shots so they made him look even taller. I was like,
Speaker 2: all right, good, good, good good. You're treating him like
Speaker 2: an actual NBA player, so you can see how big
Speaker 2: he is. And then he gave them the big chokes.
Speaker 2: He gave the two big choke slams, and that was that.
Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, and this sounds crazy coming from me,
Speaker 2: but I would have been fine with this being the
Speaker 2: main event. I'd have been fine with that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if they putball players in here, that would have
Speaker 1: made sense. But then it's actually a match, you know,
Speaker 1: it's something. It's not just talking about how great New
Speaker 1: York is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the bloviating Roman Reigns, who's always so selfless, Like,
Speaker 2: it's just it was so oddly out of character for
Speaker 2: him to do that. And by the way, I'm not
Speaker 2: saying like I I hate the character. I think it's
Speaker 2: dog shit, so I'm not like, hey, great, but I'm
Speaker 2: just sitting there and going, oh, so, this is the
Speaker 2: only time we've ever heard Roman Rains be complimentary of anybody,
Speaker 2: And it's an NBA player who legitimately looks like he's
Speaker 2: fucking comatose. So okay, you know, I guess I'll wait
Speaker 2: for the moment where Roman Reign says something nice about
Speaker 2: someone else on the show who will actually be here
Speaker 2: the following week, but that might never happen. But yeah,
Speaker 2: the segment itself was fine, and the match itself was okay,
Speaker 2: it was got guy, I was fan fair and anything.
Speaker 2: Now with Dan Housen, I'm gonna have to grate on
Speaker 2: a curve because ww's a fucking joke right now. If
Speaker 2: this was a yeah, if this was a serious show
Speaker 2: with good booking and shit that was believable, then I
Speaker 2: would look at this and feel worse about it. But
Speaker 2: the show sucks. So if it sucks and something's funny
Speaker 2: and gets a reaction out of the audience and everybody's
Speaker 2: having a good time, all right, I guess I just
Speaker 2: gotta eat I just gotta eat it.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: We go on to.
Speaker 1: Lyra and Bailey, and there was a interview before the
Speaker 1: match even happened where Lyra is now just without makeup
Speaker 1: and she's really shiny and and I don't know, she's
Speaker 1: kind of looking like the homeless bit and obviously the
Speaker 1: last week she looked like she was trying to do
Speaker 1: her first Nation of Billy kidman with a seven year
Speaker 1: itch like part of the flock. Shit Like, I don't
Speaker 1: know what's going on with her, but she was once
Speaker 1: a bird and she was once a brit Like, I
Speaker 1: don't know what the fuck she is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she has bird flew. I think I think this
Speaker 2: was going on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, what was it? She she ate the lettuce?
Speaker 2: I think she Yeah, she ate all that fucking lettuce.
Speaker 2: She's got the.
Speaker 1: I don't get it. I don't get what that was.
Speaker 1: And then I mean Bailey's I think the match was good.
Speaker 1: I enjoyed the match. I know there was blood in there.
Speaker 2: You know, Bailly straight punched her in the fucking face.
Speaker 2: It was actually kind of funny where Bailey, you've been
Speaker 2: watching your neckro butcher matches. What the fuck was that
Speaker 2: baby girl? You just punched? You literally punched Bird Girls
Speaker 2: square in the fucking.
Speaker 1: Nose, fucking stepping on her head on that corner, because
Speaker 1: that looked a little rough too. Yeah, when Bailey's head
Speaker 1: was in the corner and fucking bird Girl or liheard
Speaker 1: Junkie was fucking stepping all over her face. I was like, waw,
Speaker 1: looks a little little extra.
Speaker 2: Well that's it. It's like maybe they're you know, we're
Speaker 2: gonna lay it in a little bit. We're gonna get
Speaker 2: snug this is and they both kind of just forgot
Speaker 2: how to do that, so they just hit.
Speaker 1: Just started beating the shit out of each other.
Speaker 2: Ladies, ladies, we don't need this strong style wrestling out
Speaker 2: of you two, especially since clearly they're looking at Bird
Speaker 2: Girl and have decided that she is not long for
Speaker 2: the company. Yeah, because, so let me see if I
Speaker 2: can get this right. You took the girl, you built
Speaker 2: her up for years, you force fetter, you literally just
Speaker 2: codd her in makeup, jewelry gear, You did everything you
Speaker 2: could to make her look like a television star, and
Speaker 2: now you have ripped every single bit of that away
Speaker 2: from her. You've made her a heel, which will never
Speaker 2: work because she's five feet tall, and you have overly
Speaker 2: exposed the fact that she's an incredibly average looking girl,
Speaker 2: and you went out of the way to make her
Speaker 2: look like she's dying. What pictures just fucking typhoid, and
Speaker 2: you're and is the thought process this is building towards something.
Speaker 1: Oh, I love that. Look look at the picture that
Speaker 1: Rob put out. Yeah, she's she's a naturally pretty girl,
Speaker 1: obviously enhanced by makeups and astatics, but they're making sure
Speaker 1: that you look at her and see none of that.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, listen in the year twenty twenty six, all right,
Speaker 2: here we are in the modern era with social media
Speaker 2: and the way that you know, everything is given to people,
Speaker 2: especially people when they're young. This is how you can
Speaker 2: do your hair, This is how you can do your makeup,
Speaker 2: This is a routine you can have for your skin
Speaker 2: and whatever. The fuck. You know, you are really really
Speaker 2: kind of given the blueprint, you know, almost to a
Speaker 2: fault of how to almost always look camera ready, you know,
Speaker 2: like me and you were talking about it where it's
Speaker 2: like kids are learning almost the language of how to
Speaker 2: be fucking influencers and present themselves from the jump. Like
Speaker 2: there's young young people talking like they're getting ready to
Speaker 2: do a YouTube video. So to have this like baseline
Speaker 2: presentation as a person with the nice eyebrows and the
Speaker 2: makeup and the hair that's not even special anymore, but
Speaker 2: that's only what.
Speaker 1: I'm looking at, like when I'm seeing her, right, we're
Speaker 1: trying to understand why are they making her a heel.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to understand what she's wearing. Does it make
Speaker 1: her scary? Does it make her a heel? It makes
Speaker 1: me feel bad for a and want to put a
Speaker 1: quarter in her cup?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I legitimately kind of feel sympathetic.
Speaker 1: Right, doing the exact opposite. I'm not like, oh, what
Speaker 1: a heinous bitch, what an evil woman? When I look
Speaker 1: at her, Oh God, that's Bailey's foil, Like nobody's looking
Speaker 1: at her like that. You're looking at her and going
Speaker 1: is she okay? Is she having a bad mental health day?
Speaker 1: Does she need a does she need a vacation? This?
Speaker 2: You know what? This is where we might generationally split
Speaker 2: just a little bit because obviously, obviously you experienced the
Speaker 2: people that you went to school with and shared who
Speaker 2: got into drugs. Sure, yeah, I'm sure you have a
Speaker 2: good memory of that. I got out. It was like
Speaker 2: ripe before the tail end of the opioid epidemic, right,
Speaker 2: So there was a lot of Hey, this was a
Speaker 2: girl you went to school with who was like, you know,
Speaker 2: pretty and smart and ready to take on the world,
Speaker 2: and then five years later you're seeing her on fucking MySpace.
Speaker 2: And she's a heroin addict and she's got it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: she got tweetybird tattoo and sunk it in cheeks and
Speaker 2: you're just going, oh my god. And the roots have
Speaker 2: grown out in her hair and you're like, oh, this
Speaker 2: poor thing, that's so fucking that's so sad man. And
Speaker 2: there's no part of me now that I see that
Speaker 2: with like Lyra where it's like did she overnight?
Speaker 1: They never explained it. I mean the same thing that
Speaker 1: you brought it up before too, with the Bailey voices
Speaker 1: that just disappeared. If he just didn't explain it, just
Speaker 1: she turned on Bailey and then just ditched her outfits.
Speaker 1: It's like she just stopped brushing her teeth for the
Speaker 1: last four weeks.
Speaker 2: She's like, she's like, now that I've I'm rid of
Speaker 2: that Bailey, I'm never washing my hair again, not for me.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, okay, and all right.
Speaker 2: It's like, listen, I'm so glad I can stop being
Speaker 2: friends with that person, so I can just shit my
Speaker 2: pants whenever I want.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she sweatpants everywhere she goes. She looks like a
Speaker 1: skinny mcfoley.
Speaker 2: They used to look at me and be like, hey,
Speaker 2: don't piss yourself. Well guess what. Now it's just me
Speaker 2: against the world. So I'm just missing and shitting and
Speaker 2: people ever combing my hair again, Like people.
Speaker 1: Used to want to pay me for my piste underwear.
Speaker 1: Now they just want to go away.
Speaker 2: So yeah, which this is it. And and people, whenever
Speaker 2: we talk about Lyra, I'm sure some of them will
Speaker 2: hear and it sounds like we're trying to like big
Speaker 2: time be like she's yucky here, But she is in
Speaker 2: the world, in the regular hue, human, everyday world. If
Speaker 2: your friend brought her around and said, this is my
Speaker 2: new girlfriend, you'd say, good on you. She's a cutie,
Speaker 2: you know, she seems like a nice girl, whatever the fuck.
Speaker 2: But in the world of pro wrestling television and like
Speaker 2: I said, where everybody now has access to shit on
Speaker 2: the internet, where you can walk around looking like a
Speaker 2: fucking model because you've been taught how to do that
Speaker 2: since you were a child. Fucking crazy enough. Then you
Speaker 2: see her and they're like, let's make her look worse.
Speaker 2: Then you go, okay, well, where is this lead other
Speaker 2: than absolutely nowhere. And by the way, bird Girl's new
Speaker 2: music hit and nothing nothing see a row, Nothing you
Speaker 2: heard like six people try to do wo's in the crowd,
Speaker 2: but now there's no wooz because she's a heel and
Speaker 2: you're like, the babyface thing barely works, so you decided
Speaker 2: to make her a fucking heel. The like I said,
Speaker 2: I feel sympathy for her, like I feel bad for her.
Speaker 2: It's almost as though they said, hey, we gave you
Speaker 2: every fucking thing we can do, and then she was
Speaker 2: like okay, and they said, all right now we're just
Speaker 2: gonna never mind.
Speaker 1: You know what it is, she just doesn't know how
Speaker 1: to say no. I think she's another one of those
Speaker 1: people that just does not you know, you can stand
Speaker 1: up for people's impersonate are impression of you, like you
Speaker 1: don't have to to wear that, Like is Johnny Ace
Speaker 1: still working with the company? Is that what's going on here?
Speaker 1: Because I'm sorry, like she you're right, you're right, and
Speaker 1: people will always be like, you know, you guys just
Speaker 1: be in pieces of shit or whatever. She is a
Speaker 1: pretty girl. She's got a pretty face, she has a good,
Speaker 1: you know, body, like there's nothing wrong with her at all,
Speaker 1: and obviously underneath the right light, right makeup, she's absolutely gorgeous.
Speaker 1: It's just why would you immediately think that this look
Speaker 1: is a works as a heel? Like, do they think
Speaker 1: she's like female Baron Corbin?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: I mean, if she was doing that, if she was
Speaker 1: gonna be homeless bird girl, you know, like I would
Speaker 1: have been like, okay at Lisa trying something with that.
Speaker 1: But I don't know, and she changes her fair, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I just and I hate talking about this
Speaker 1: because we've given this way too much time. The match
Speaker 1: was fun, the match was good. There was some solid
Speaker 1: moves in there, and that's it.
Speaker 2: She's fine. She's a fine and ring performer. That's not
Speaker 2: the issue. It's the it's the dead end that is
Speaker 2: making her be and act and look like this for
Speaker 2: for Bailey. Who Now I am thinking to myself, I'm like,
Speaker 2: is Bailey even gonna fucking stick around that much longer?
Speaker 2: Is Bailey?
Speaker 1: Bird Girl actually looked good in the ring and got
Speaker 1: over on Bailey tonight did a little after after the
Speaker 1: bell work too, like it was fine. I had no
Speaker 1: problem with it. I'm like, oh, look, she's she's got
Speaker 1: an attitude. She even has the attitude. She has the streak,
Speaker 1: a little bit of that mean streak that needs to
Speaker 1: fester a little bit and get worse. But I mean,
Speaker 1: if if she's gonna go out there and have matches
Speaker 1: like she did tonight, then yeah, that's the direction we
Speaker 1: can go. Can we do something about what the fuck
Speaker 1: she's wearing? You know, that's all.
Speaker 2: It's It's just it's a shame. It's a fucking shame.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah. This was the match itself was fine. It's
Speaker 2: just everything else that surrounds it that's not good.
Speaker 1: So then we got, uh see them Punk Cody Rhodes
Speaker 1: and Sammy's ame and goun there in the in the
Speaker 1: real world's main event tag team Champion or just tag
Speaker 1: team match, don't championship.
Speaker 2: Oh no no, because if the Heels win, then they
Speaker 2: get added to the match, right Yeah, yeah, I mean
Speaker 2: this was this was a well put together match because
Speaker 2: you're dealing with four pros, so there's nothing bad you
Speaker 2: could really say about the match because the match is fine.
Speaker 2: That's that's that's it. It's like and that's a lot
Speaker 2: of what we do see in w w E. There
Speaker 2: is that big gap, right, there's your green green wrestlers
Speaker 2: like obviously like Trick or some of those other guys
Speaker 2: and some of the girls where you're like, all right,
Speaker 2: maybe they're just it looks fake. It's you know, they're
Speaker 2: still trying to figure it out, they're half baked whatever,
Speaker 2: you know. But then you have the people that are
Speaker 2: very seasoned and really know what they're doing, like once again,
Speaker 2: the four guys that were in this match, and it
Speaker 2: was okay. It told a good little story.
Speaker 1: Even building it up to night, Like, I really did
Speaker 1: enjoy them having Cody and Punk do the buddy buddy
Speaker 1: fucking tag team interview, but they.
Speaker 2: Still have animosity because they're going to wrestle each other
Speaker 2: in two weeks, but which.
Speaker 1: It came so naturally. You can't do that with everybody
Speaker 1: else anymore, but you can do the buddy cop thing
Speaker 1: with that, you.
Speaker 2: Know, because Cody Cody, even though he overacts, he at
Speaker 2: least knows how to act, and the Punk Punk knows
Speaker 2: how to react, so he's good at that and that's
Speaker 2: what makes that functional. Dunter did a good job here,
Speaker 2: and obviously they're going to set up the match where
Speaker 2: you know they're going to have all this wrestle Dunter
Speaker 2: at SummerSlam.
Speaker 1: Now, how do you feel about that? Because I've seen
Speaker 1: kind of a mixed response. I don't think a lot
Speaker 1: of people are looking forward to seeing Nick all this
Speaker 1: interject himself in a match.
Speaker 2: Shunter's going to retire him. Gunter's going to retire him too. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think that's what they're going to go for, is
Speaker 2: they're going to say, you know, hey, all this now
Speaker 2: you're getting you know, you're gonna get fired because you
Speaker 2: shouldn't have done that right, And then he'll say, no,
Speaker 2: I want to wrestle Gunter, you know, let me fight
Speaker 2: him at SummerSlam and blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: Sense to you that that bothers me in a little
Speaker 1: bit of a way, Like I I like call this,
Speaker 1: I really.
Speaker 2: Do you like him a lot more than I do?
Speaker 1: I think he should be wrestling Cody Rhodes.
Speaker 2: Mmm. I mean, well, Cody's a face, so that would
Speaker 2: have been I understand that.
Speaker 1: But there's there's history there, Like if you want to
Speaker 1: really hammer on that belt a little bit, like, why
Speaker 1: wouldn't you have somebody like Nick Aldis bring some of
Speaker 1: that outside energy to Cody Rhodes.
Speaker 2: Well, what I'd probably do in this situation is have
Speaker 2: that whole stipulation, right, you have to retire and then
Speaker 2: whatever it would be he's got to be if he
Speaker 2: loses the match, he has to retire, and if he wins,
Speaker 2: he gets some sort of you know whatever, he gets
Speaker 2: his job back.
Speaker 1: He versus he gets to retire.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I kind of love that stipulation. It's like, well,
Speaker 2: what happens if I win? Well, we shoot you in
Speaker 2: the face. What happens if you wow, shoots in the faith?
Speaker 2: Oh sick? I love these options. Uh, what a deal?
Speaker 2: It's great. I love it. It's it's it's a lot
Speaker 2: like health insurance. Hey, what happens if I pay for
Speaker 2: the health insurance? Well, you don't get anything covered. What
Speaker 2: happens if I don't pay with all the jurts, you
Speaker 2: don't have anything covered? But I what a deal, here's
Speaker 2: more money, thanks for a thirty percent of my income.
Speaker 1: Lucky me.
Speaker 2: What a great system. Yeah, no, it's it is fucking yep.
Speaker 2: They I would figure something out to where you know, gunter,
Speaker 2: you put your career on the line, he retires them,
Speaker 2: and then I'd have all just go back to TNA.
Speaker 2: Fuck it.
Speaker 1: If you lose you TNA, Yeah, he's like, oh no, sh.
Speaker 2: And if you really lose, you go to fucking a
Speaker 2: w how that goes? Uh No, no, like I would
Speaker 2: have that, you know, some sort of you know, career
Speaker 2: career versus fucking match. You get reinstated if you win,
Speaker 2: and you get your revenge on Gunther and you have
Speaker 2: Gunter beat him and get off. All this to do
Speaker 2: is you know, he can do a nice bow out.
Speaker 2: But now and then he goes to TNA and he's
Speaker 2: a GM there or something, you know.
Speaker 1: But now Sammy's on the outs. So now Gunther hasn't
Speaker 1: planned clearly, Gunther nickol Thiss is gonna happen. See I'm
Speaker 1: punkin Cody Rhads is gonna happen. Now Sammy, who just
Speaker 1: had the belt for a hot snot doesn't have ship, Like,
Speaker 1: what's he gonna do?
Speaker 2: Sammy's aying for you, but that's the career of Sammy's
Speaker 2: aying in a nutshell. They're like, hey did you get over? Yeah? Hey,
Speaker 2: did you have a great match? Yeah? Hey you're cutting
Speaker 2: good promos? Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Nah, go sit with l A. Knight on the back
Speaker 1: of the bus, you.
Speaker 2: Know, Yeah, you and La and I can go to
Speaker 2: the back and play Chinese Checkers or something. Sorry about that?
Speaker 2: You know good? I know, I know when that's it
Speaker 2: is OK.
Speaker 1: He might be right. He's like, Samuel will win the
Speaker 1: WWE title again in Saudi Arabia next year. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know right.
Speaker 2: He is officially the son Prince Ali Baba will just
Speaker 2: keep putting the belt on him every time they go
Speaker 2: to Sadi.
Speaker 1: Or Monday night, Row comes and just drops it. He's
Speaker 1: gonna be like the twenty six time champion by the
Speaker 1: time he retires.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of what you could do with
Speaker 2: Sammy that could be fun. I feel like, you know what,
Speaker 2: I feel like Sammy would be good for in the
Speaker 2: next couple months. It sounds so mean for me to
Speaker 2: put it that way, but I could just see I
Speaker 2: could see Sammy doing a hair versus title or hair
Speaker 2: like something like that where him is a heel and
Speaker 2: then him getting fucking hell and them shaving his head. No. No,
Speaker 2: like he would do great at something like that. I mean,
Speaker 2: he's a good character for that along the lines and
Speaker 2: somebody might say, what are you trying to humiliate him,
Speaker 2: I'd be like, well, no, his hair's already going, and
Speaker 2: you know he's a talented guy. He's a funny guy.
Speaker 2: Put together a fun match that way, and we know like,
Speaker 2: he's probably not gonna win the belt ever again. And
Speaker 2: if it does, it ain't happened in the United States
Speaker 2: of America or seemingly Canada either. Funny enough, you know, yeah,
Speaker 2: but yeah, you're right, Sammy now is just kind of
Speaker 2: out on an island. So they'll try to figure something
Speaker 2: else out with him. Maybe he'll get nero.
Speaker 1: Alexi is saying, is Kevin on the way back? I
Speaker 1: don't know he was doing that that aw ripoff podcast
Speaker 1: with kit for club membership WWE whatever?
Speaker 2: Oh Jesus Christ, yeah, the club, the club WWE will
Speaker 2: have to learn more about that. Huh. You have to
Speaker 2: figure that one on one hundred dollars a year something.
Speaker 1: Now that's the list of subscriptions.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can get you can buy shirts by getting
Speaker 2: the subscription to it.
Speaker 1: WHOA, well they're just taking Yeah, they're just taking the
Speaker 1: crunchy roll bit. That's what crunchy role is doing. Now
Speaker 1: did you know that? So people at like anime, Well,
Speaker 1: what if you want to buy anime merch, Well, now
Speaker 1: you can't buy anime merch unless you pay crunchy roll
Speaker 1: more money to watch the streams, and then you can
Speaker 1: pay them more money for merch, like, is this is
Speaker 1: this just the new way? Now PlayStation takes away everybody's
Speaker 1: fucking libraries and now crunchy rolls like, eh, if you
Speaker 1: want to pay us money, you got to pay us
Speaker 1: more money to pay us money.
Speaker 2: It's just they're just progressively seeing how many fingers they
Speaker 2: can put in you until you tap out. It's all
Speaker 2: it is at this point. That's but but here's the
Speaker 2: problem is is that a lot of people will just
Speaker 2: continue to fucking be okay with that. They'll just keep
Speaker 2: on doing it. They'll keep on and for whatever reason
Speaker 2: it is, it's the emotional connection to the ship, to
Speaker 2: the product, I mean, and to some people that are
Speaker 2: younger to them, this is just what's normal. Yeah, the
Speaker 2: same the same way that in some respects where if
Speaker 2: we tried to tell people that it cost twenty dollars
Speaker 2: for a fucking piece of plastic with twelve songs on it,
Speaker 2: they'd laugh in our fucking face. Right, you know what
Speaker 2: for twelve songs? Do you get to pick the songs? No? No, no,
Speaker 2: are they all good? No? No, you don't know, you
Speaker 2: have no idea. But that was like, that was the model,
Speaker 2: that was the price models. So do some of these people, especially,
Speaker 2: you know, some of these kids that are probably into anime.
Speaker 2: They're like, oh, I pay to pay, great, Okay, pay
Speaker 2: to pay. I guess I'll just do that. Which is
Speaker 2: it's still it's gross and it's a shame, but this
Speaker 2: is it, like this is where WWE is. I have
Speaker 2: a feeling right now that you know, right after that show,
Speaker 2: there were people out there with postcards scraping up all
Speaker 2: the random wrestler's blood so they could sell it at
Speaker 2: the fucking show tomorrow or the card show or whatever
Speaker 2: they're doing the fanatics Fest.
Speaker 1: By the way, I want to maybe they're going to
Speaker 1: put it inside one of those boxes and clone their
Speaker 1: very own bird Girl, take another one of those Dan
Speaker 1: House and boxes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, in memory of the guy that just died that
Speaker 2: was in fucking Jurassic Park. They're just gonna make it
Speaker 2: that and clones here. By the way, I want to say,
Speaker 2: if they listened to this, we do have we gotta
Speaker 2: make a fucking clip of this thing. This whole moment
Speaker 2: of it you saw or no, I told you about
Speaker 2: the boxing machine thing at the fanatics Fest where you
Speaker 2: punch it and it tells you how hard you hit. Yes,
Speaker 2: that fucking Roman did it, but Justin Bieber did it
Speaker 2: earlier in the day and got a higher score than.
Speaker 1: It did on the Well it's rigged, Joe, come on,
Speaker 1: we all know that.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yes, it's it's rigged, man. It's it's a
Speaker 2: vote in ballot, that's what it is. It's I'm gonna
Speaker 2: do the save act for Robe and reins punch.
Speaker 1: Well, you know he's he's got that blood disease. You
Speaker 1: know he got Oh that's it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's not like his finish is a fucking punch.
Speaker 2: I think he got to beat out by Justin Bieber.
Speaker 1: Well, he's a he's a third degree black belt, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the renowned tough guy, Justin Bieber.
Speaker 1: I think he was trained by Eric Bischoff. At some point, I.
Speaker 2: Said, every single wrestling promoter is looking up from Hell,
Speaker 2: just shaking their fucking head in disgust. Oh, imagine, imagine
Speaker 2: fucking would it if you were.
Speaker 1: Going to have Roman do it, wouldn't you fucking rig
Speaker 1: the goddamn thing.
Speaker 2: Well, they had everybody do it. I know. I think.
Speaker 1: Somebody beforehand couldn't have figured it out and pressed a button.
Speaker 1: When Roman stepped up and made the numbers go all
Speaker 1: eights or some ships.
Speaker 2: You know, how fucking funny? Come on, mits, what are
Speaker 2: you gonna say? They're gonna put their finger on the
Speaker 2: scale for Roman Reigns. Who would ever do such a
Speaker 2: thing giving him a giant over push and too much
Speaker 2: credit and more respec then he deserves? Come on, why?
Speaker 2: Why would anybody ever do that for Roman Rains? No?
Speaker 2: I was dying when I saw that. I was like,
Speaker 2: if that gets out into the ether, And it was
Speaker 2: funny because immediately you're like that machine, that machine's rigged.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I saw the comments and people that were like, nah,
Speaker 2: it's not really that's that's fake, that's a fake thing.
Speaker 2: That's not really true, that's not how that works. And
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, really really sure? Or is it just
Speaker 2: that you just got beat by the guy that sang
Speaker 2: the song baby Baby? Is that what it is? Maybe
Speaker 2: they should have a ludicrous coming afterwards to do a
Speaker 2: feature hunted harder than Roman Reigns.
Speaker 1: Maybe Justin Bieber to step into the ring with Roman Reigns.
Speaker 2: You know, well, you know what, I bet you Justin
Speaker 2: Bieber has more than one facial expression. I bet you
Speaker 2: he could do it. I bet you. You know what,
Speaker 2: I'd rather justin Bieber have something in a wrestling match
Speaker 2: that fucking Tom Brady and tom Brady's my guy.
Speaker 1: Tom Brady's happening.
Speaker 2: It's going to be it's going to be rotten that.
Speaker 1: Happening.
Speaker 2: I know, I know. And this is where you don't
Speaker 2: want to anybody that would ever say there was a
Speaker 2: bias that I had when it comes to wrestling or
Speaker 2: anything outside of it.
Speaker 1: Oh, it's still biased. You don't want to see him
Speaker 1: paris himself. Yeah, absolutely, you don't want to see him
Speaker 1: out there. You want to see your hero go out
Speaker 1: there and look like a fucking giant ass.
Speaker 2: Total, here's the problem. Just well, its's just like everything
Speaker 2: in wrestling, right, He'll look like a giant ass. But
Speaker 2: people will go, well that was cool. I'm like, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: There'll still be somebody that tells him it went well.
Speaker 1: Now with care about their opinions? You care about yours?
Speaker 2: Well I don't.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: I don't want to be cringed out. I don't want
Speaker 2: to be just cringing out right. I said, yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: it's like I don't want to see Arnold Schwarzenegger Old, right,
Speaker 2: and of course not. I don't want to. I don't
Speaker 2: want to see him infirmed like to me, I'm just like,
Speaker 2: I want to see Arnold like that. And also it's
Speaker 2: crossing two streams on things I like and how the
Speaker 2: things I want to see and I don't want to
Speaker 2: see the other person attempt it and do it poorly.
Speaker 2: There's like a weird there's like an icky feeling to that.
Speaker 2: But I know he's going to do it and it's
Speaker 2: going to be bad. And like I said, I'd rather Justin.
Speaker 2: I'd rather Justin Bieber come out singing a fucking Justin
Speaker 2: Bieber song with Logan Paul and getting a ship ton
Speaker 2: of heat because to me, that would be more effective
Speaker 2: with the general WWE audience than having Tom Brady come out,
Speaker 2: because it's I love him, one of my favorite sports
Speaker 2: guys of all time, even if he's supposedly helped the
Speaker 2: Seahawks win. But that's another conspiracy, uh right, But he's
Speaker 2: a California dullard. I love him, but he's a California
Speaker 2: dullard and I can't trust him to do the right
Speaker 2: thing in wrestling.
Speaker 1: Joe, Please please let me be wrong. Though, you know,
Speaker 1: let's let's get ready to get out of here. We've
Speaker 1: already talked about this shit long enough, much loved everybody
Speaker 1: listening on the live listening on the download Patreon dot com,
Speaker 1: Forward Slash Wrestling Soup, and yeah, we'll have up a
Speaker 1: new Frank Gusts for Monday for everybody as well, which
Speaker 1: is covering your aw event and uh yeah, and then
Speaker 1: this will be up by tomorrow morning.
Speaker 2: It's true.
Speaker 1: See everybody, laity guys except b
