Speaker 1: And nine Ignition six five four.
Speaker 2: Three two one zero.
Speaker 3: All Engine running, Good evening, everybody.
Speaker 4: This is Kelson and I'm going to start this show
a little bit different today because this week, or last
week actually, the wrestling world recognized the passing the six
year anniversary of the passing of Hanna Kamira. She took
her own life after online bullying, intense online bullying. And
if anybody who knows me knows this about me for sure,
there is nothing that I dislike more than a bully,
bullies or cowards, and they attack people who cannot defend
themselves and people who should not have to defend themselves. Now,
Hannah never wrestled in aw She did, however, wrestle I
believe it was in twenty eighteen in Rigam Honor, and
once she passed, ringa Honor did a really nice tribute
to her, and I encourage everybody to go and watch that.
Now every year they do a Hannah Kamara tribute show.
They just did one last week. And one of the
things that is interesting is that even though somebody like
Mercedes Monet never wrestled Hannah Kamura that I know of,
she still did a tribute to Hannah Cakmira in wrestling gear.
That's special. I'm sorry, that is special. That shows you
how much she was loved. But that's not the only
aw wrestler to pay tribute to Hannah Kamiera in a
lot a lot of people, even wrestling fans like Hannah
Kamura fans like me, almost missed it. But there was
a big tribute to Hannah Kamura at Double or Nothing
by another or other than the ae W Men's World Champion.
MJF were Hannah's colors neon. If you looked at him
when he was walking through the back, his robe literally
was glowing, which Hannah did. Hannah's did as well, So
I give MJF all the credit in the world. That
was special. A big star like MGF and the biggest
stage did a great job with that. Thank you, MJF.
That's I want to just put up this photo. This
is Mercedes Monet with Hannah Kamura's mom. If you look
at the T shirt, it says he the hate absolutely.
When Hanna kamer died six years ago, I believe it
was the day before Double or Nothing and during Double
or Nothing, and I believe it was during or just
before the I think it was Hakarroshida and Nila Rose
match aw put Hannah's image up on the big screen.
The crowd instantly got silent out of respect, and Excalibur
paid a small tribute to Hannah Kamura on that occasion,
and he ended his little speech with something that rings
true and I want if this reaches one person more
what Excalibur said, then this whole little intro was worth it.
Excalibur closed his tribute to Hannah Kamura by saying something
to the effect up and I believe this is the
exact quote he just said. Please be nice to want them. Yes, sir,
it's Tuesday. You know what that means. It's time for
ignition with the Awvan podcast team. We just saw Double
or Nothing on Sunday. We're going to talk about it
quite a bit tonight, and wow, I'm sure we all
have a lot to say about it. Don't want to
put any words in anybody's mouth, but I want to
throw it over the valerie right now because this isn't
her backyard.
Speaker 5: Yes it is Montreal. Be prepared. I wrote a tweet
after I after I went, after I came back from
Dynasty in Vancouver, and I said, please, please, please, Tony,
please bring a w back to Montreal, Please have us
a pay per view, and we finally, finally going to
have one and exactly two months at the Bell Center,
home of the greatest team on national hokying, the Montreal
Get Indiens, Go, Habs Go. It's going to be fantastic.
So tickets will be on sale on June first, But
the pre cell is in exactly two days on the
twenty eighth of May, at around ten am local time.
So if you want to come to Montreal, you are welcome.
Speaker 4: Is ten am your local time? Is that Eastern time.
Speaker 5: So there's a pre cell on the twenty eight like
a VIP pre sale like what I read really really quick.
But the general and mission will be on June first.
Speaker 4: Bellarie you ever bet you? Wow? Have you ever been
to a wrestling show at the Bell Center in Montreal?
Speaker 6: Never?
Speaker 4: Okay? I was wondering if you could give us a
little hit about the setup, but I guess you can't
because it's going to be you too, So that's great.
It's a new experience.
Speaker 5: The Bell Center is the biggest arena in the NHL.
There's twenty one thousand people that could be in it.
And when there's the hockey game because now the Montreal
Canadians are in the Eastern Conference. It's sold out, so
there's twenty one thousand people in there, so.
Speaker 4: That'd probably probably be more for well, no, not necessarily
because they don't have the stage in a hockey game,
so it probably would be a little bit less, probably
around sixteen thousand maybe because they'd be blocking off, like,
you know, a quarter of the arena, I'm sure. But
then you'd gain more because there's no floor seats in hockey.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Wait, wouldn't that be fun?
Speaker 5: That would be But no, there's no floor and there's
no floor in the for the hockey for the hockey match.
But I'm thinking there's probably gonna be fifteen thousand people,
but I'm crossing my fingers. But if I were, if
I were, if I were told, I would have gone
a little bit north to Laval, which is speedball Mike's
baby hometown. At plas Bell. There's ten thousand people that
could easily filled up that building. And I went there
in twenty nineteen for a WWE show and we were
probably about five six seven thousand people and it was
not a nountelevised event for Christmas.
Speaker 4: So okay, great, well, thanks Aval. We're gonna move on.
But before we move on, I want to give some
shout outs to the people in the chat. Conrad at
EPW show, be sure to watch his a are you
doing an aw dynamite collision review show tomorrow night or
you can hold off until Thursday, Conrad. But Conrad says,
good evening, Uh, MJF and Sore Sabers span over here,
happy for Montreal. Matt Lopez, Hi, good evening everyone. How
you doing Matt? And fly Boys? Five boy Rex? He said,
what's going Brev? What's going on? Fly Boy? Thanks for
joining us. Keep going in the chat. We'll try to
break in and uh and uh show you know what's
going on, you know, talk about what's going on and
getting you guys involved. But for right now, we are
going to move on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll hijack this for a second. First of all,
I want to poke a little fun at you right now.
The last time I checked, the Hurricanes are beating so
we'll see. We'll see how that plays out.
Speaker 4: That's that's.
Speaker 7: In the first game.
Speaker 4: It was fantastic they did.
Speaker 1: God forbid an American takes hockey away from Canadians. I'm
not going to do that to yet. I was trying
to summon a wild rounds either, because I know him
and I are both big hockey fans. We got our
little farm team up here with him and I catch
a couple games a year, but we wanted like speaking
about interesting arena's, new arena's new setups. Let's talk about
Double or Nothing like Louis Armstrong Arena. That little tennis
joint that they had was fantastic. It was a really
cool setup. It looked like a much bigger production that
I also want to throw out there that AAW. You know,
Double Nothing twenty twenty six. It's the second highest biggest
non WWE US gate ever at one point five six
million trailing. You know, just all in Texas twenty twenty five.
Big things for AEW. You know, Tony Kahn said he
was profitable this year, so obviously they're not worried about
money right now. And you know, it'd be cool to
see them there next year. It was just really a
fantastic venue all in all. You know, I'm going to
open it up to you guys and not do what
I normally do and hijack this pod. But it was
a fantastic pay per view. We got a lot of
really cool things out of it, a couple of really
cool title changes. Obviously, my boy it went over. Really
happy to see that rip Darby alban Alan. But I'm
really curious to hear what you guys actually thought about
the pay per view. I'm assuming it's somewhere along the same.
Speaker 4: I do want to break in here, Shan, just a
caution everybody that we are going to be talking about MJF,
Kevin Knight, and Tecla at length. We have segments already
you know, installed for them, so try not to talk
about those matches so much as far as in depth
right now, because we will get into those later. But
go ahead, what did you guy? I'm curious what if
you had to give a grade and there's net how
you doing that? If you had to get a grade
right now for double or nothing, what would it be?
Speaker 7: Hey plus? For me, I thought this was the show
of the year. I enjoyed every match, like every match
was at least good, but not a lot of them
were freaking fantastic.
Speaker 4: I'm interested here with the excuse me wrong. So one second,
I really want the people in the chat to also
give their grades go ahead.
Speaker 6: Wrongs, Chris, I agree with you. I didn't think there
was a single match where I was like, eh, whatever.
My prediction going in was that Samoa Joe versus will
Osprey was gonna be matched to the night. That's no
disrespect to Okata and Takashia, but I just felt like
Samoa Joe and will Osprey could just put on an
absolute classic, and they did. But then we got to
Cashadow Kyle. I was like, what is that? Just to
touch on that valid redemption, that's gonna be Aw's second
of three pay per views in Canada because they're also
doing Wrestle Dream in Toronto at scot Your Bank Arena.
And also there's no way they would run a pay
per view at the Leval Rockets Arena in Laval. There's
no way, all.
Speaker 4: Right, Well, anybody else with A with a grade?
Speaker 7: And I.
Speaker 6: Do, yes, an a valerie?
Speaker 4: Okay, who else?
Speaker 2: I will give them an A, especially for zero hour
and you all know why.
Speaker 4: That must have been the part of the show I
turned off. Anyway, anybody else with a grade?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 1: I asked here straight off? This is this is a
contender for pay per View of the Year.
Speaker 4: Acrossers and Conrad has joined us. Welcome Conrad. Conrad. Before
we go any further, if you turn your mic on
what time on Thursday will you be doing your AW
Dynamite AW Collision review or do you not know yet?
Speaker 8: It'll be Thursday at seven pm.
Speaker 4: Thursday at seven pm at EPW show on YouTube. Great show.
Give it a listen. It's highly interactive. Fly Boy Rex
on the chats that I give it an A solid
matches and the pacing of the show is good. Couldn't
agree more, couldn't agree more? I give it an A plus.
I thought some of the matches actually overperformed. They exceeded
my expectations. Was there any matches, guys that you felt
didn't quite meet your expectations? Were anything? Was there anything
to yet.
Speaker 5: Disappointed in versus Athena?
Speaker 6: Yeah, you thought it.
Speaker 4: Could be better? What disappointed you? Was it something that
happened in the match was.
Speaker 5: What I expected because I picked Athena to win against Mina.
But I don't know it felt I don't. I don't,
I don't. I can't put my finger on it. It's
just it wasn't for me. But I want to see
Athena more in a w.
Speaker 7: I mean she's right, well.
Speaker 4: Well she won, so she's definitely going to be backed,
ye you know pretty soon, and we're gonna be talking
about the wildcard. What do we who's going to be
the wildcard? A little bit later on in the show
and the owen Hart Women's Tournament. You know, what disappointed
me a little bit was that there was this hot
blonde in the crowd and it turned out to be Lucasaurus,
and I mean it was just like swing and then.
Speaker 1: You know, but.
Speaker 4: And the worst and the worst part about it to
me was that the hop lot spits.
Speaker 7: I know, I.
Speaker 4: Am hanging my head in shame. Yes, I I why.
Speaker 7: Told me I need to wash my mouth. I am trying.
Speaker 6: I did see it.
Speaker 4: I blame Shane, you know, for his uh terrible influence.
I blame I Toby Tanaka. That's It's just as simple
as that.
Speaker 1: Oh my lord, oh Jesus, well.
Speaker 7: That is.
Speaker 4: But for those who are watching YouTube, Shade is beat
red right now. He is he is. He looks like
he looks like an apple took over his body.
Speaker 1: For context, I sent Kelson. So they started putting up
the hall in w w E Hall of Fame inductees,
and someone made one for Tomaka and I popped it
in another wrestling community just like she's the best Japanese
tell they hits the mat like, okay, yeah, that wasn't
a lie. But I'm done.
Speaker 4: I'm done, and I'm being honest. I my virginity must
be coming out because I have no clue who it is,
who that is? So and I'm being serious to great,
I have no no clue. I'm gonna google it when
we get off, and Shane, I'm maybe coming to your
house with the with the whip, but I'm just going
to say that right now.
Speaker 1: You know what, shame on all of shame on all
of you guys are all perpose And who's gonna ask
me to check my heart? Who's checking that guy's hard drive?
Speaker 7: How about that.
Speaker 6: Actually saves?
Speaker 4: Yes? That was that was Brillian and Chris. Yeah, what
about that? I mean everybody, I've watched a lot of
reviews on YouTube and a pretty much every one of
them is saying that that was the match of the night.
Do you guys agree?
Speaker 7: Yeah, I honestly can say I considered a Match of
the Year contender.
Speaker 4: The year is young, the year is young, But yeah,
I can't. I can't argue with you. That was he
I mean, just the storytelling, the emotion that they conveyed
toward each other. I mean, you can it do seething
and then say his full name.
Speaker 7: Chris, Kyle Herbert, Walker, Comato Fletcher. Wait wait, I'm messed up,
pro Star Kyle Herbert, Walker, Kitty Bonport, Tomato Fleser.
Speaker 4: Exactly, there you go.
Speaker 6: The way they executed that was absolutely perfect. I love
that they saved it for after the match. I didn't
want there to be any in match Shenanigan. Just let
the two of them make absolute magic and my good
That's all I can say.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that was actually done perfectly. I mean
I was look, I'm gonna say this, and I mean
this kind of a little bit off topic, but I
want to go back to the first two matches, which
of course includes Ocada Takeshta. I said right from the beginning,
when those first two matches of double or Nothing were over,
I was like, that was better than anything to ww
Weed that I have seen has put together this year,
just those two matches, and we still had the rest
of the show to go. The beginning of that show
was brilliant, absolutely brilliant, and EXGW wrestlings here said s up,
sup back at you, thanks for joining, and uh do
you agree with me?
Speaker 7: There?
Speaker 1: Do mean?
Speaker 4: Do you think that those first two matches were just.
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 1: It's straight up delivered on a year of storytelling in
one direction almost two years of storytelling, and the other
was a little bit predictable because we kind of knew
it was headed, but man did it. It was so
well done, especially.
Speaker 7: That opening MAK was so freaking good. I was like,
how is the rest of them going to follow this?
Speaker 6: And then.
Speaker 7: Like all our stuff take.
Speaker 6: Honestly surprised they opened with the I quit match. That's
not what I predicted or expected, but I definitely liked it.
My thought on that was as much as I wanted
Coping Cage to be Tag Team Champions just because of
my fantasy booking, I actually wanted FDR to retain because
I have a crazy multi team ladder match at all
in FTR versus The Young Bucks versus The New Day
versus The Rascal versus the Motus City machine Guns in
a ladder match for the ae W World Tag Team Championship. Again,
I want all disrespect to coping cage. But just for
those reasons, I wanted FTR to retain. But cop and
Cage winning, I have no issue with it.
Speaker 7: Hey just make it a sixth man ladder match with coat.
Speaker 6: If if you want to do that, sure, go ahead.
Speaker 4: Okay. The valerie said that the match that she felt
was that didn't I don't. I don't want to use
the word week is didn't hit as well for her?
Was that fair to say? Does anybody else have a
match that didn't hit exactly right for them? I do,
I I kinda. The Moxley O'Reilly match didn't do it
for me as much as the other matches did it. LD,
hold on your jests. I have muted you multiple times.
You're making a ton of noise over there. Sounds like
they're putting putting glass in a in a tumbler and
shaking it. Keep stabuted, please, Yeah, was so what I
would say Moxley O'Reilly. It was a good match, don't
get me wrong, It just didn't have anything special in
it to me, and and frankly, we how many times
have they've wrestled already? It's kind of like a repeat
a little bit. I don't know, you know, but I
wasn't complaining about it. It's just that this just seemed
like the it was really not a whole lot new
and we've seen it before. Taking nothing away from the match,
because it was a great match, it's just that seemed
like I'd seen it before. That's all.
Speaker 7: Anybody else, I guess I could say the women's or way,
It just there were a lot of moments that felt
kind of clunky and like they weren't they were almost
fighting against each other and like not wanting not really
working with each other. There were just some weird moments
that felt like one wanted to go this way and
the other was like, no, I'm going this way. And
it's just overall it was a good match. It's just
there were a few moments where I'm like, that was awkward.
Speaker 4: Well, to be fair, when you put four people of
any caliber in the ring together, you're always going to
have a chance for four times the amount of misspots
and screw ups, which did not happen in this match.
It did seem a little bit uh, you know, slow
at time. I guess I don't know, but I think
they pulled it off really well. I'm gonna go to
Conrad Conrad. Is there anything in double or nothing that
didn't hit quite right for you still be in a
great match, but you know not, it didn't just stand
out as much as some of the other matches. I
guess Conrad's not here.
Speaker 8: Oh there is no I'm here. What match were you
referring to? I'm getting a little issue here.
Speaker 4: With Adie match any match? Is there any match a
double or nothing that you felt that maybe didn't hit
as hard as some of the other matches.
Speaker 8: I think it's really tough to say that because I
think everything landed on the mark. If your worst match
of the night is John Moxley and kylo'illy or Athena
versus Mina, I mean, I still think it was a
good night no matter what I think overall, I hear
people saying, like the greatest show of all time for
AW and I'm not quite there yet. But yeah, I
thought it was a fantastic show, and I thought it
was a great show for the energy that it needed.
Speaker 6: Calsin, I got disagree with you about John Moxley and
Kyle O'Reilly because for me, that was one of the
better matches of the night. It was a match of
the knight contender. For me, the only gripe I had
with it is that it was the same stipulation as
what they did with Takesha, with the whole no time
limit thing. I would have kept the Continental rules in
place and the one stipulation I would have put on
it because Kyle had beaten Moxley twice via submission, just
making a submission match. But the match overall, I thought
they told an excellent story with them both going for
submissions and in the end Moxley just wore out Kyle
with the ankle and that proved to be the difference.
Speaker 7: Yeah, very much like it was a kind of slow build,
more technical match, which I can understand that's not for everyone.
Like I love that style of wrestling, So for me
it was an amazing match. But I know, Helsin, that's
not really your favorite, so it makes sense you didn't
enjoy it as much I did.
Speaker 4: But I want to stress that I stressed that I
did enjoy it. It's just that I thought the other matches,
of all the great matches, and I'm not counting the
Stadium Stampede because that was not really a match that
was just a showcase for comedy basically, but of all
the matches that one kind of I can't believe I'm
gonna do this. I really can't, but I'm gonna put
this up anyway. If this knucklenut like aw or nothing
everybody did, because JD from New York is a villain
the blank err and uh, and even he liked it.
It's funny because some people kind of trashed him on Reddit,
not on Reddit, for on Twitter for doing this, and
he's like, I can't win. Well, look when you run
your mouth and make yourself look like an idiot constantly,
when you finally say something that's nice about something that
everybody likes, you know in the fandom, you're gonna catch
out twice a day. Yeah, he's a broken clock that
the hands don't move at all and you can't see them.
But I do want to go ahead and move on
to uh, to the actual some of the matches specifically
on the show, and I want to start with this,
the absolute Angel MGF, who saved us from what could
have been the worst World Championship Raine ever, could have
easily exceeded John Moxley's reign had it not ended at
double or nothing, because I personally don't think I could
have stomached Darby Allen Wrestling every show from here until
what's the next pay per view forbidden Door. I couldn't
take it, And everybody that in this in this place
knows what I feel. But I want to know specifically
what you guys thought of the match and ultimately, did
you feel like the wheels fell off for Darby Allen
sufficiently that this was the end?
Speaker 7: Yeah? I thought it was a really good match, and
they told a good story of Darby just being so
worn down and beaten and just fighting as hard as
he freaking could. But m JF everyone for ditch that
he is a damn good wrestler, Like they just think
about what he does on the mic and his talking,
but like he is really good inside the ring, and
you can't go against the guy like MJF when you're
at fifty percent like Darby was.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I want to say a load of clown, he says,
after doing everyone in the chat XGW Wrestling or XGW Wrestling,
That is right. When you have a full card of
Maine Eveentors ain't so bad. That's the truth.
Speaker 1: Hey, Chris, you and I are agreeing on a lot
of things today. I actually want to expand on your
comment on MJF. I'm going to give this dude the
whole entire bag. His aerial interview a couple about a
week and a half ago was absolutely insightful. He is
the complete package, poor wrestler. He's not the best wrestler
AW has on their roster, but in terms of everything else,
he's just the complete package. I would dare I say
he's probably one of the most well routed professional wrestlers
and professional wrestling today.
Speaker 7: Barnunn, Oh, yeah, agree with that. I honestly think he's
one of the best well rounded. I could put them
up against, you know, quite a bit of like all
time greats.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you would make a match with a Mott somehow Entertayday.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm curious to know. I'm curious to know. Sorry, Rawlins,
but I'm curious to know. Rollins. You can answer this first,
but I want everybody to give a shot to answer this.
Did anybody think that MGF was going to lose this
match going out to double or nothing?
Speaker 6: No, because they leaned so heavily into the bald stuff.
But Chris and Shane, I want to piggyback off of
what you both were just saying, because it's not just
the mic work that is so good with him, it's
the n ring storytelling, specifically with Darby, the fact that
they're feud and their entire stor relationship whatever word you
want to use, is centered around one of the most
basic moves even the wrestling book, the headlock takeover. They
have made it like such a figure that you want
to watch, like the fact, and that's a credit to
both m JF and Darby.
Speaker 1: Rot simple idea, like an effective wrestler could make the
most insignificant move their greatest weapon. It's credit to both
of them.
Speaker 6: I mean, can't what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I'm a Darby hater, always had been a Darby hater,
and I'm never going to stop being a Darby Heator hater.
That's just me. Don't ask why I could talk that
this will be a seven hour pod if that's the case.
But you know, and JFF is just good. You just
can't say he's not Darby. Allen is serviceable if you're
into his style of wrestling, which I love art style,
strong style. But I mean, everything he's doing is and
he proved it at the pay per views. A Bully clone.
Speaker 7: Yeah, if I had to pick one wrestler to build
a company around right now.
Speaker 4: Absolutely absolutely, He's got the right talent, he's got the
right age, he's got the right mindset. Look, and I
want to make one thing clear. I do not dislike
Darby Allen. I was thrilled that he became world champion.
I just don't want to see anybody at MGF, anybody
on any wrestling roster, wrestling the main event every single show.
This was the big problem I had with Orange Cassidy
and his international title run. People love that. Don't interrupt
me when you when I look at Orange Cassidy. I
went into that International time of title run loving Orange
Cassidy one of my all time favorite wrestlers. Bye, I
don't know. Not even halfway through that run, I was
sick and tired of seeing Orange Cassidy on every single show.
That is overdoing it. It is oversaturation. No wrestler should
have that. I am sorry. It does not work.
Speaker 1: Wow, Rollins, you made Kelson you dad voice. Way to go, dude.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're welcome.
Speaker 1: I love I love both of you.
Speaker 4: Guys. Go to your room.
Speaker 6: I'm already in by your room.
Speaker 1: God, we'll go to the other one.
Speaker 6: To the other.
Speaker 4: Room, but not to us room.
Speaker 1: Oh god? So where where where does Kelston? Where does
MGF go from here? Do you think he's got like.
Speaker 7: Come out he needs? I have.
Speaker 4: I said last week that I was convinced that hang
Man Addam Page was going to come out and shave
his head. I still think that this is going to
happen tomorrow night on Dynamite Collision, MJF is speaking, that
would be a perfect time for for Hangmanana Page. When
you asked who, what's going to happen? Shane, that's what
I think is that happened. Uh, our friend, our good friend,
Wolf is in the chat and he said, I love
that Orange Cassidy run. The story was up becoming The
story was about becoming a workhorse through the fatigue, and
everyone wants to work with him. Everyone could I agree
everything with the story. You hit hit the dail on
the head on with the story, but I got the fatigue.
You know. I'm sorry. Darby Allen's run was reminding me
way too much of Orange Orange Cassidy's run. And I
did watch the last two Darby Allen matches because they
were pointless to me. To me, they were hurting the
wrestlers that he was wrestling against. At least with Orange
Cassidy's run, he was wrestling against mid carters. Darby Allen's
wrestling against people who had a legitimate shot. For the
most part, a legitimate shot is world champion material.
Speaker 7: Can I ask this sort of weird question, no, go ahead,
Have you watched much anime?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 7: Okay, See, I think that might be kind of where
this fundamental difference of the whole not liking the fighting
champion thing comes from, because, like I had, I did,
I've watched a lot of animate and especially like the
battle anime type, so I love seeing just crazy fights
sometimes just for the sake of crazy fights.
Speaker 4: But Chris, look at the because I don't want to
talk about anime on this podcast, but I do appreciate
a fighting champion. A fighting champion is somebody that wrestles
for the championship against legic contenders, which Darby Allen did.
But he was doing it every week, which was pointless.
It was absolutely pointless, people said, But he had to
wrestle Untie the wheels came off, so that you know,
he was at a disadvantage when he went into this
into the bout with and Jeff Darby. Allen's a small guy.
He's always at a disadvantage. There's only like a couple
of wrestlers, Sir Petico and John Cruise to be specific,
law who's smaller than Darby Allen. Every other man man
and some of the women on in theaw roster are
all bigger than Darby. I'm sorry, it just did not
make any sense. He's at a disadvantage to begin with.
Speaker 7: Yeah, but who doesn't love an underdog like that's what
he is? A body?
Speaker 4: I understand that. But look when you have somebody who
throws their body all over the place on Wednesday night
and then can come out on sun on Saturday night
and wrestle basically like nothing happened, That's that runs the
story to me. I do want to go back to
the chat. I want to go back to the chat
real quick, because the chat is going going strong. Clown said,
I do think there needs to be a better long
term planning when it comes to the blowoff matches or
for a long term blood feuds happening in commission towns
where you can't bleed or go into the crowd. Conrad said, Uh,
it's all opinion, and you know what opinions are like,
but I enjoy hearing everyone's perspective. Uh XGW Wrestling says
true clown, uh wolf that says, I just want good story.
Part of what makes wrestling great as finding new ways
to tell the same story we all know and love. Well,
if I agree with you one hundred percent, the Darby
Allen way was the same as the Orange cast away,
only worse.
Speaker 6: Hey, Chris didn't. Ruth mentioned on Dynamite Slash Collition last
week that he wanted to challenge the winner of MJF
Darby for the title on this week's episode.
Speaker 7: Well, he said Darby Allen. He didn't specifically say the
winner because he knows mj im im going to expect
that challenge.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is right. This was specifically addressed at Darby.
So yeah, if Darby had won, we would have seen
Darby versus Ruche. I'm sure what MGF comes out tomorrow,
Maybe Ruth comes out and challenges him.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I can definitely say that happen.
Speaker 6: Do you think we still end up getting that Rus
versus Darby Allen match at some point?
Speaker 7: Though? I think at some point it will happen, But
I don't see it happening in the relative future, right
in the next couple of months or so.
Speaker 4: Right, I don't think it's a priority at all. Ruce
versus MGF would be bored of a priority.
Speaker 6: Didn't they do that recon Like when MJF came back
or something? They did that TV program between MJF and Rush.
Speaker 4: I don't remember, to be honest with you, No disrespect
to Bruce or MGF, but I just don't remember it.
Speaker 6: It was like MJF had just made his comeback and
they did a program between them. I think they had
a match to open Dynamite and was commercial free. I
want to say they did.
Speaker 4: You know Rollins the match, you know instead of Rush.
I think the match that you may see for Darby
Allen is going to be the match between dark be
On and Kevin Knight.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I had a question about that, go for it, Okay.
So Kevin Knight did what he did and now he
looks like he may be a heel. How is that
going to affect his relationship with Speedball? What do you
all think it's going to happen there?
Speaker 7: Well?
Speaker 4: Did you see the interview backstage? Not really an interviewed?
Not really of it yet either, it was just kind
of a reaction from Speedlog. No, he was not happy,
to put it mildly.
Speaker 5: El Ell, you know what I'm seeing because I watched
Speedball's blog and he was mad as hell and he
was speechless, speechless, speechless. I want to see Kevin Knight
and Speedball Mike Bailey in Montreal.
Speaker 2: I would love to see that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was all.
Speaker 5: Speedball did. Did a tweet promoting the promoting the show
in Montreal, and he said, I'm trying to figure it
out that he wants everybody that pays good ticket to
see to see a good wrestling show. And I'm crossing
my fingers that I would see Speedball Mike Bailey again.
That would be my third time in a year that
I'm seeing Speedball live and I can't wait. Perfect place,
especially in Montreal. You will see the chance, you will,
you will hear it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's that's definitely a good match to have at a
pay per view, that's for sure.
Speaker 6: See. To me, it feels like Kevin Knight's get a
team up with a certain mogul because if you remember
a couple what was it a couple months backs, were
basically said to have a Knight if you want to
get to the top of the mountain, you can't be
a good guy. Good guys don't make it to the
top around here.
Speaker 4: Honestly, I'm gonna say this Rollins, and I don't know
if anybody agree with me, but it seems like anytime
that there's a black wrestler that changes a little bit
of their allegiance, I guess is the best way to
put it, there's always somebody to say, oh, he should
be in the Hurt Syndicate. I don't want to see
Kevin Knight and the Hurt Syndicate, not right now.
Speaker 7: Or technically faces.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they they definitely are. How about Bobby Lashley having
the best time of his life. He was great, He
had a blast. It was fun watching him have fun. Yeah,
you could tell he had fun.
Speaker 6: Just to know. I didn't say anything about Kevin Knight
joining the Hurt Syndicate. I said he teams up with
Swell No.
Speaker 4: No, I was just saying that is a broad thing.
If you go on social media, it's like, and it's
the same with Kevin Knight as it is with any
black wrestler who changes allegiance or looks like they're changing allegiance.
They immediately say, oh, he should go to the Hurt Syndicate,
to the point where MVP said, just because they're black
doesn't mean they're coming to the Hurt Syndicate. I mean
he literally said that, you know, yeah, Hurt Syndicate is
recruiting a fourth member, but MVP pretty much said that
the member doesn't have to be black, and you know,
maybe good maybe it'll be somebody like Willow Nightingale.
Speaker 6: I would love to see Kevin Knight and Swear Strickland
together though. I think that would be absolutely fantastic. I'm
not saying like, have them become the tag team champions,
but if you just have them together, good Lord, that
would be us see television. To me, I would absolutely
love that Swerve has already gotten to the top of
the mountain and he could be like the mentor to
Kevin Knight. I would love it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that I wouldn't. I wouldn't mind that at all.
I wouldn't mind Kevin Knight being in the Hurt Syndicate either.
It's just one of those things that my point was
is that just because you're black and you're out there
doesn't mean you need to be in the Hurt syndicate,
because that's something that's been happening on the social media
a lot, you know, and it's the truth to the
point where MVP actually addressed it.
Speaker 1: I gotta say, people, Chris christ weare probably for like
the fifth time, we're probably on the same page. It's
like in w W it's an old Vincent mcvince mcman thing.
He puts the Latinos with Latinos, the Japanese people at
the Japanese people.
Speaker 4: I don't want.
Speaker 1: To say the blacks at the blacks. I just said it,
but I mean, I mean, that's just how wrestling was
booked for so long. And I hate to say it,
but it's just unfortunately, just the nature of the game.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I was gonna say, it's like when people were
always like, oh, it's a new Black groups, they're the
new nation of domination. Hey or hey, they're similar.
Speaker 1: We got a new l f I or l w O.
We got a new we got a new they even
took the they even put the hey, they even put
the vikings together. Come on, now, go.
Speaker 4: Ahead, Conrad, let's let's hear what you have to say.
Speaker 8: No, No, I was just gonna I wrote in the
chat already people used to do the same thing. Anytime
a wrestler would be he should join the nation of domination.
Why can't Owen Heart join the Nation of domination. It's fine,
it's clear and try to do stuff differently. That's what
I like about the down callis family. It's just a
group of different people.
Speaker 1: Or yeah, I mean it's important to have diversity everywhere.
Speaker 4: True True used Media says her Schindikett isn't really heal.
Wolf says Aminada would fit did so well with the
hurt said to get I agree, but there's several other
women that would fit in with the Hurts indicate as well.
True Muse Media said, we're naming black wrestlers. It's hard
to get out of that mindset. It really is. It's
it's a proven fact, it really is. I do want
to move on, though, because we've got quite a bit
still to talk about. I want to talk about the
AAW Women's Champion and if I can find the graphic
that would be wonderful. Tecla and the MVP of Double
or Nothing was by far Techla's push up. Rob did
a great job. I don't know how to help. I
swear to God, I was holding my breath at times,
going please God, don't let this be an R rated show,
you know, because it was wardrobe malfunction was about to happen.
Good job, Ra. Did anybody see, by the way, kind
of off topic, did anybody see Techla posing with her mother?
If you go on Techla's Instagram, there's pictures and there's
picture elsewhere both heard or mother or mother is you know,
obviously older, not old, but older than Tecla, and they're
both standing like shoulder to shoulder, flipping the bird like
mom like daughter. You know, they're flipping off the camera
or whoever is there, you know, but you know, look,
Techla won this match. He's on quite a run. The
question is, you know we're gonna be talking about the
owen Hart. You know that's for all in, But we've
got other stuff going. We got quite a while before
all in. So what's next for Tecla tech Techla? Jess
you may be say it, yeah, but what's next for
Tecla heading into the time, the weeks whatever before all in?
Anybody have any ideas?
Speaker 7: Honestly, I got nothing, and that's it feels weird. I
feel like she's just kind of waiting for whoever wins
the Owen.
Speaker 4: Well, I do have something, but I want to hear
if anybody else.
Speaker 6: Says she, I sorry.
Speaker 5: She She dodges a question about Mercedes in a in
a podcast somewhere that she did like a probably maybe
a week or two ago. She's teasing a match with Mercedes.
So I'm guessing if we're talking about the Owen, that
the wild card is Mercedes and she wins it for
the second year in a row, which would be fantastic
because she's my pick. I would I would love to
see her with tech Lime. I mean, oh, it would
be fantastic.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I agree with you, Bellerie, but I don't
think it's going to happen. Anybody else have any ideas.
I think Rollins you were going to say something.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Techless Tyringe has been good but not great. It's
clear they were gonna do Tony Storm as like the
big feud, but since that's not happening, it feels like
they're just trying to find something for her. That's why
I think this match even happened at double or nothing.
So I can't quite get behind Teca right now, just
because it feels like she's missing that true dance partner.
But I think we will get that at all in. However,
it will not be Mercedes. It's gonna be the falling Goddess,
the forever ro Oh Women's Champion, Athena.
Speaker 4: Before all in or at all in, at all in. Okay,
but we got two months before all in. We're not
gonna wait. Tech was not gonna sit on her hands.
We got for the door coming up before all in.
So I mean, there's got to be something to me.
Let me tell you what my idea is. Everybody knows
by now that Tecla got fired from stardom. Why did
she get fired from stardom? Because when she had a
match against Sayaka Carra at Russell Quingdam last year, if
it was a stipulation match, if Techla lost, she had
to join Cosmic Angels. Now, Techla's her gimmick was the
idol killer. She was going after it a cute, squeaky
voiced girls in uh in the uh in, the in
in stardom and a Conrad I see your hand really raised.
I'll get to you in a second. But the other
stipulation was that if Tecla won the match, she would
get a match with Stardom president Taro Taro Acatta. Tecla
lost the match to Sayaka Carrara. Then she attacked Tero
Okatta and that led to her she refused to join
Cosmic Angels, and that led Tero Okatta to fire Techla.
They've got addit gone and they've gone at it. There
was a like a Tony Kahan Techla Tero Cotta Twitter
war going on for a second where Techla was going
after both Tero Cotta and Tony Khan was trying to
step in to stop it. It was great. Uh. And
that at American Dream twenty twenty six, which just happened
like a month ago, Techla threatened to Tero Cotta. She
showed up, snuck up behind Tero Cotta and threatens This
story is not over. The other thing is is that
who is the who is the champion, the world champion
right now and start them? It's not Saya Kamatani, It's
Sayaka Karara, the woman who got Techla fired. It's a
ready made match for Forbidden Door, a rematch between the
world champion to start them and the world champion of
a w Techler versus sayakak Go ahead, Conrad I guess
he's not there. He must be having I think he's
having technical issues. But does anybody else have any ideas
with technic? I was, I don't want to go.
Speaker 7: I don't want to look.
Speaker 4: I don't want to look forward to it all in
because like I said, it's two months away. We got
Forbid Door before that.
Speaker 7: It's definitely a good idea for Forbidden Door and would
make sense and you can even do the whole you know,
sticulation like Techla doesn't maybe doesn't want to have them,
he doesn't care about that anymore, and left something is
on the line. But Chris, she just.
Speaker 4: Went in to Startom last month and and threatened ter Ocnna,
So obviously still it's still on her mind. Obviously she
spent she's been talking on a w TV about her
getting fired or not getting fired from Stardom.
Speaker 7: Well, she doesn't care about the match with Cara unless
there's something on the line. So she says, if she wins,
she gets five minutes with Terror. That's what I'm saying.
That's the easy way to make it and not have
the titles on the line.
Speaker 4: Right. I do think that in that match, if they
do run that match at Forbid Door definitely absolutely does
not need to be a world title match, because we
all know if it's a world title match, Like if
Techla puts her title on the line, Carra doesn't necessarily
have to put her title online, but the Techla puts
her title online, it's a foregone conclusion. There's no way
the tech was gonna lose the title.
Speaker 7: Yeah, can I jump? So that gives you a speculation
with the non title, Yeah, go.
Speaker 4: Ahead, Valanie.
Speaker 5: I'm not familiar with stardom, like I said a few
weeks back, but if the other girl that you you know,
Nelson put the title on the line, why not why
not having Tekla beat her for both titles and then say,
you know she she loves saying bitches and and and
she's the president of stardom and say come come, come
get me. If you want me to go to stardom,
pay me big box and I will go and I
will defend.
Speaker 4: Well, she aspired from stardom, so she's not invited back.
The problem with what you're putting the title on the line, Valerie,
is that when an ae W title is on the
line in Forbidden Door, the winner in the match, it's
before gone conclusion. There is no way at AW Star
is going to lose at AW title to anybody from Japan.
There's just no way. It's not gonna happen. That's why
I am not a fan of Forbidden Door, because this
is a glorified exhibition matches, and I don't like do
japan Pro Wrestling's wrestling style. I do like the women's
Japanese the Joshi style, but you know, to me, you know,
and again this is just my opinion, and I respect
everybody else's opinion. I do not enjoy Japanese wrestling, Japanese
men's wrestling to some extent. I do enjoy some of
the matches and when you got like Kenny Omega and
Kazutsko O Kata and stuff like that, but like when
you had it forbidden To or Nigel McGinnis and Zach Saber,
I have never seen a Zach Saber Junior match that
I didn't fall asleep at some point during the match.
Because his matches, his matches are from my I don't
enjoy Chris even alluded to this earlier. I don't enjoy
technical wrestling. I never did and I never will. I
don't like the pure style. I don't like technical wrestling.
Brian Danielson, who did he didn't Brian Danielson take on
Zachabon as well. Yeah, it was unwatched. I I zone out.
I just cannot get into it. I just don't I
and I and I respect that, I just don't like it.
It's just not my style. I want to see action.
I don't want to see finger holds. Seriously, that was
the that was that was the big That was the
big moment last year Forbidden Door, Zach Saber Junior, Digel
McGinnis in a terrifying finger hold? Am I wrong? Am
I wrong? I don't want to see that. That's not
the big move for tonight. I'm sorry.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Like if you gave me a free ticket to
go see a new Japan pay per view in my
you know, ten minutes from my house, I would actually
probably not go because I just wouldn't enjoy it. I
would enjoy myself. I would not enjoy myself. I just
don't enjoy that style of wrestling. Again, I respect the
people who do it's that's not not saying I hate
it and I don't, you know whatever, I it's just
not my thing, you know, I, you know, I can't.
It's like binge watching Dalton Abby to me, which I
would never do. You know, It's just that's that's the
true description. But I mean that I respect the wrestlers.
I just don't enjoy the red. That's it. I just
don't enjoy the style of wrestling, that's all. I'm clear.
I am absolutely not saying that they suck, you.
Speaker 9: Know, so yeah, you know, but I do enjoy, like,
you know, the Gape kids, the Findley's, you know, the
dogs kind of thing.
Speaker 4: I do enjoy that. But when you get just your
basic Japanese male wrestlers, I mean, the women run roughshot.
I mean they can't hold the candle to the women
as far as entertainment, as far as I'm concerned, that's
you know, that's just my opinion. But does anybody else
have any idea of what's next for Tecla Mi Baker?
Speaker 1: Is the wildcard?
Speaker 4: We're gonna get to that. We're gonna get to the
wildcard pretty soon. As a matter of fact, let's uh what,
let me let me find that. I am just all
thumbs today. Let's go to the wildcard, the wildcard, the
Owen Hart. Of course, we have that wildcard who's gonna
be the wildcard? Because the who they would be taking
Willow's place, and Willow was wrestling who Alex windsor.
Speaker 7: Windsor Yeah windsor so Shane.
Speaker 4: You think it's gonna be Britt Baker.
Speaker 1: No, it's not gonna be. He's gonna be Mercedes Mode. No, no,
don't say hell no. Man, I I I listen. I
We used to have this guy in this pod name
Elf Sutton. I love to death. He's still active in
the server. Biggest Britt Baker hater in the world. A
lot of us have been Britt Baker haters because there
is some validity for her teeth gate keeping the women's
locker room at a W and obviously issues behind the
scenes with some bigger talents. But honestly, like it's been
too long and if she and she's she's in limbo
right now, and I get to that she has a
whole ass other job as a dentist and she doesn't
need a W But like, I don't know, man, give
her her day in court. At least give her the
opportunity to come back and do something.
Speaker 5: She's got a word and she screwed it, screw complete.
Speaker 4: But yeah, she did.
Speaker 1: She didn't have chemistry. You cannot put that on her.
Mercedes was at the time, Mercedes wasn't having great matches.
She was not what she was bringing so many eyes
into the division. Mercedes coming into AW is fantastic.
Speaker 4: She has.
Speaker 1: She literally rehelped rebuild that locker room. But like, are
you guys gonna seriously take it away from Britt that
that she didn't carry it herself for at least the
first two years that she wasn't on screen?
Speaker 6: Come on, now, when Britt was the world champion, she
had excellent matchis Are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 6: I mean, I'm yeah a lot.
Speaker 4: But rawlins. I think what you have to keep in mind, though,
is that the women's division when Britt Baker was AW
World Champion. And I'm asking you the you you this specifically,
would you agree that the women's division now is much more,
much better, more accomplished than it was when Britt Baker
was champion?
Speaker 7: Yes?
Speaker 6: But why why are we like taking away from what
Brit did?
Speaker 4: No, I'm not saying that. I absolutely do believe that
Britt Baker was the right woman at the right place
at the right time in AW. Back in you know,
the early part of the twenty twenties. She's not at
that place right now. And Shane, by the way, I've
also heard reports. I don't know how you are, but
brit Baker is no longer a practicing dentist, at least
not full times. He's just living off her a nice
uh AW contract.
Speaker 1: Money, collecting a paycheck and not working like everybody else
in a w.
Speaker 6: Sorry, Shane, I've cald Shane, I've told you this, and
I think I've said it on this podcast. I liked,
I really liked the feud between Britt Baker and Mercedes Monette,
leaning up to all in the way they were one
upping each other, and I thought the promos battles they
had were fantastic. Did the match live up to the
feud itself. No, it did not, I will admit that.
But I thought the actual feud leading up to the
match was great. You can't take that away from either
one of that.
Speaker 1: Hold On, yeah, yeah, of Chris, hold On, hold on, now,
I look, these two women did not have working chemistry
together other than occasionally behind a microphone. If you remember
the contract signing, it was weird. It was not not weird.
It just didn't seem like these two women were given
enough time to let the bun coke in the oven
for lack of better expression. But in terms of Britt Baker,
I'm a Cleveland Browns fan. She's a Pittsburgh Steeler. For
all intents and purposes, I should loathe her existence, and
I do for the most part. To be honest, I
don't think that I I Kelseon, I agree with you.
Right now might not be her time, but I believe
that she deserves her day in court. That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 4: Well, I want to kind of go in a different
direction right now because the topic is who is going
to be the wildcard in the owen Hart Cup Tournament.
We spent the last ten minutes talking about somebody that
we all agree is not going to be the wildcard
in the owen Heart Tournament. We have clown saying Ruby,
soho if it's a signed talent, unsigned talent SDL, her
husband is already there. Conrad says, I have a different name,
but he didn't say what the name was, and UH,
go for it.
Speaker 8: No, I was just gonna say, I think that it
could be a Dakota Kai. I think that she's been
gone for a little bit of time, and I think
she's going by the name Charlie. I could see them
giving her a try out here.
Speaker 4: Sure about Kyrie saying I don't no, no, she's not
going to be I had it written down. I believe
it's July twenty third, is when her ninety is up.
All in, Yeah, all in is a possibility forbidden door.
Speaker 7: No, but I think it'd definitely be all in the.
Speaker 4: Valerie.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say to Tsha's wife, ki Yuki Saka, you
don't what.
Speaker 4: You know what you look at wild Cards, Well, look
back at the recent his of Wildcards, the recent history.
We've had a few surprises Wildcards. But we've all speculated,
and there's been speculation on social media it's going to
be this name, that name, and it never pans out.
It's somebody that's already there, maybe somebody who's coming back
from a very short injury. But I fully expect it
to be the wild card to be somebody that's already there.
Could be like Queen Aminada, Zeta Steel, somebody like that.
I do believe it's going to be somebody like that.
Speaker 7: I feel like it needs to be Mercedes, just because
they've already the downs Toby Storm, and now they've lost
Willow like they need Mercedes to come back, like they
need that big name.
Speaker 8: I can see Mercedes becoming champion in between two depends
on what they want to do. I could definitely see
it happening, though.
Speaker 5: Well, don't forget there's the TBAs title to be to
be decided.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're we're going to talk about that next as
a matter of fact, But does anybody else have any
wildcards that they have in mind? I don't think it's
going to be any of the Japanese wrestlers, simply because
we already have two Japanese wrestlers in the Owen and
I think three is a little much and an eight
woman roster. However, Tommy left left Marrigold and she's at
stardom now, so that's big because Tommy was the ace
of Marygold and marror Gold isn't hurting right now. Good,
you know, I don't want any any of these women
to lose their jobs. But Rossia Gala is a YI
so but NotI. The Roses going to wrestle a match
in Marygold. So maybe Tony Conen and Rosia Gwa made
up or something I don't know, but uh true true
mused media says, having Monet win twice in a row
isn't a good look. I can kind of see your point,
I do. I think we've got to establish somebody new.
That's my wish is that somebody new. Whether it's Serie
from Stardom, Azuki from Stardom, could those are very good,
you know options, but I personally don't want to see
somebody that's there. Persephone is an absolute perfect choice for this,
for the owen Hart to win the Owen Heart. I
really do, and I do agree with Conrad when he says, siri.
You know true muse media said Persephone, and Conrad said sire.
But let's move on to what Valerie had brought up,
and that is who is going to be the next
TVs champion? And it's weird. Shane. Weren't you the one
that said to Koda Kai uh for the wild card? No?
Speaker 1: I said, uh.
Speaker 4: Okay oh, Conrad secret Dakota Kai. Because if you if
you look at the silhouette, if you look at the silhouette,
doesn't that look like the Dakota Kai? It really does?
It really does? It went in all actuality, this is
the second time I've used this person as a silhouette
one of our who is this gonna be thing? There's
actually a friend of mine. I just took a you
took a picture of her, and I just made it
a silhouette and I slapped it on here. So but
I was like, man, she looks like Da Coda Kai
when she's you know, a shadow.
Speaker 6: When Alex windsor versus wildcard matches happening, is that happen
for sure? Happens tomorrow?
Speaker 4: You know what? As far as I know leading up
to this podcast, I haven't checked it during the podcast,
But as far as I know, the two owen Heart
matches is uh, the one onwen Heart match on uh
a double or nothing for the women's side were the
only ones that have been announced. But we're talking about
the TBS Championship right now, which has which has nothing
to do with the Owen Hart. But I wanted to
answer your question, but I haven't heard anything about about that,
so he.
Speaker 1: Yeah, thinking about the TBS, remember like three years ago
when something like this would happen and there'd be a tournament,
and then they stopped doing that and now we want
tournaments back.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think they're not have two tournaments though, right, Yeah.
Speaker 7: No they're not. Who you think I want a four
way elimination match between four former what are there four
former ABS champions?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Jay Cargill is coming back to make an appearance.
Speaker 4: Well yeah, well who are who who other than who
are the who are the TBS champions that are still
in the company. Uh, you've got for Mercedes, you've got
Chris Statlander, Julia Hart, Shidah was never TBS champion.
Speaker 7: That Lander, Julia Hart, Mercedes Monette.
Speaker 4: Of course, Willow Night, Gale, but she's injured.
Speaker 7: Yeah, those are literally only one, two, three, four. Only
five women have held the title.
Speaker 4: Okay, did somebody old it twice?
Speaker 5: Then?
Speaker 4: Is that where you're so there's only four women that
held the title.
Speaker 7: No, No, there's been six champions. Five women have held it. Champion,
the other the the other.
Speaker 4: One said that it could be a four way match.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Jay Cargill, looks she's in w w E. So
there's only.
Speaker 4: Chris stat Lander was the second, Julia Hart was the third,
Willow Knight and Gale was the fourth. Okay, because that's
how what you said. You said there were six, there's
only five, you know, all right. So yeah, but okay,
but Jake Cargo is no longer with the CA. Okay,
I get what you're saying now, Yeah, so but dakoona
Kai would be a really good choice here, now that
I got the picture up. Yeah, you know, I don't
know how I feel about this, Peter, But Peter says,
I think they do a Battle Royal for the TBS Championship.
I don't think the TBS Championship should be decided by
a Battle Royal. I like the if they did it,
they could do like a five woman's four women whatever
eliminator match, meaning whoever gets pidded is out. Then they
do another one the next week, you know, and until
you get two on two and do that, it's not
really a tournament, but it's something different, all right.
Speaker 7: You know, I don't know a survival series if you will.
Speaker 4: But but I go right back to my standby. There's
two of them, uh and and they're best friends. I
think that Queen Amanada and sky Blue are perfect for
for the TPS Championship. I really put it on Amanada,
to put it on Amanada, but sky Blue deserves it
a lot more, you think so, in my in my mind,
she seems like.
Speaker 1: Really busy with big a third wheel in a in
a three pack faction. Well it got really quiet. Yeah no,
I mean like she's wrestling, but like I'm God miss,
I'm back to being old me talking all the big stuff.
I mean, like her micro work hasn't really improved too much.
Her entering is just the same as it was two years. Amanada,
every time she's on in the ring is evolving, her style,
evolving her presence. She's cutting better promos, so I Kelson,
we usually see ey'd eye a lot of things. I
do not think that belt should go on sky Blue
anytime soon.
Speaker 4: But here's the reason. I remember, I'm the one who
brought up Queen Domanada, of course, but the only reason
I don't think, the only reason I think Queena maybe
sky Blue over Queen Amanada because I don't know. Queen
Amanada is one dalthy. She's only been in like one
match this year, and she came back from injury, wrestled
one match and disappeared off the face of the earth again.
Speaker 7: He's been wrestling on well also, Shane.
Speaker 6: If you remember, prior to her free injury against Tina
sky Blue with getting a bit of a punch. So
a good way to continue that push would be to
give her that TBS champion again.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no no, I disagree with that completely. No,
you earn that position by putting in the reps. But
you also have to be you know, skilled enough to
build a fan base, attal base. You need to be over.
Being over is a lot of things, and I just
don't think sky Blue is it. If she wanted to
cut her teeth right now, she needs to get kicked
back to ROH and be on our OHTV as much
as possible, as much as often as possible. I really
think that she needs to work on her promos too.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I'm saying with sky Blue. You know,
I personally think Zeta Steele is better than sky Blue
in almost every single you know thing. She's a better
on the mic, she's better in the ring. But sky
Blue is a workhorse, and that's what you need because
it's an open challenge, you know, it's an open challenge belt.
So if sky Blue is definitely the type of person
to get in there and and do like, you know,
four or five matches in four or five weeks, you know,
maybe somebody else wouldn't be able to do that. Plus
you don't know what the contracts are like, you know,
some of them may have only so many appearances every
month kind of thing. You know, it's weird. But anyway, look,
I do want to wrap this up, and you know,
so that Shane go to bed. He says he's over
there yawn and his little you know what of Yeah,
but anyway, this has been ignition from the aw Fana
podcast team. Tomorrow night three, it's a three hour dye
to my collision, right am I? Right? Yeah, yeah, So
we're going to have a live chat on the discord.
The link to the discord will be in will be
in the in the uh in the description of this podcast.
We are also doing a live chat on Reddit. I
will be on Reddit. I will not be on Discord
for the live chat. But please whatever you like, visit
one hell go to both.
Speaker 7: Our our reddit.
Speaker 4: I mean our discord was on fire for double or nothing.
It was absolutely on fire and it was just so good.
It was so right. And do me a favor. We
are I've been working a little bit with Reddit on
a new project that they're doing, aw fan Hub and
maybe like seven other subreddits and all of Reddit were
invited to participate in this pilot program and I got
it installed on on aw fan ub. Right now, it
is not fully functional yet, meaning that I've I have
yet to do things that need to be done. But
a couple of things you can do you can do.
You can create your own trivia for AW so that's fun.
There's already been like four or five of them made,
and there are questions. Are hard, They're really hard, and
I'm awful at it. Here I am doing a podcast,
you know, and I'm not an expert at AW by
any means, shape or form. But you will be able
to create your own memes on the subreddit. You'll be
able to do and this is one I think that
I am most excited about, which I will be working on.
It will be ready tomorrow and it's called a w
fan Hub bingo. If you've heard somebody say, well that
wasn't on my bingo card, now it will be or
it could be. Basically, what it is is you will
get a five by five bingo board on the subreddit.
Everybody gets a different one. There's twenty five bingo slots
and a five by five board. There's one hundred and
twenty five possibilities, and it'll be things like Oconna flips
off the crowd from within the ring. If he does it,
you fill in the slot all time. John Moxley bleeds,
that's actually one of them that I'm going to be doing.
I'm going to be filling that out. I'll be ready
tomorrow afternoon and I will put it on everywhere. You'll
see it advertised on Twitter, Instagram and everything, because it's
gonna be fun. It's gonna make people pay attention maybe
where others wouldn't, because as soon as something happens, it's
on your Bigo card. You click on it, you fill
out the Bingo card, and you win. Now what do
you win? Right now? It's just in the testing phase.
Probably do two of them, because it could take a
couple of weeks, three weeks, even a month for somebody
to fill out a big O card because some of
them are common stuff and some of the stuff is
gonna be a little bit out there but not impossible,
you know what I mean. But eventually the per first person,
you know, I'm shooting for maybe like all in Week
or something, maybe Forbidden Door, But I don't think it's
gonna be that soon to probably be a little bit
after Bridden Door maybe even Redemption that that month. Whoever
wins gets big Go. The first three people to get
Bingo win an aw T shirt from Shop aaw. Let's
just have some fun. Just have some fun. That's what
it's all about. It's just about having fun, you know,
watching the show. Hey, that's on my Bigo card. Click
the button and you and you fills it in for you,
you know, and it's it's just something silly and fun.
You know. There's also going to be new prediction polls
where even draws are an option. So if you're one
of those people like me who thinks every match it's
going to be a draw in the Continental Classic, this
is going to be right up your alley, you know.
So yeah, so the reddit is going to be have
some cool new features on it. It really is. Also
there's a showcase thing. So for example, you take who
is the best we just talked about who's the best
TVs Champion? Right you and you had the had a
community ranks them just by uploading them, and it changes
the graphic. It'll rank them biographics. It's pretty cool. But
we've been working hard on that and hopefully we will
be just some of the stuff will be ready tomorrow.
Like I said, I've already got the Tribua up, I've
already got the live chat up, and we'll see what
goes on from there. So please join us on discord again.
