Speaker 1: AUW Dynamite. Tonight was live from Norfolk. It was an
Speaker 1: improvement over last week's show. Last week's show was boring.
Speaker 1: Tonight a little bit better than last week. Still, though
Speaker 1: we are less than two weeks away from their biggest
Speaker 1: show with the year, it just feels like there should
Speaker 1: be just more of an energy about this show. That
Speaker 1: just feels lacking compared to what we had in the
Speaker 1: build up to All In last year. And it's not
Speaker 1: because of poor build to the key matches. I'm actually
Speaker 1: pretty excited about the key matches on this show. It's
Speaker 1: just missing something that last year's show seemed to have
Speaker 1: when we were headed into Wembley Stadium. But tonight's show
Speaker 1: is a lot more focused and I do think that
Speaker 1: the build to the key matches tonight was very good.
Speaker 1: If you're a fan of video packages, this was the
Speaker 1: show for you, and I don't say that as a
Speaker 1: bad thing. I actually think it was a good thing
Speaker 1: because we got some great videos to hype up the
Speaker 1: MJF will Osprey match Darby Allen and Jack Perry, and
Speaker 1: a tremendous video set to Green Day for Brian Danielson
Speaker 1: at the end of the show, So all of that
Speaker 1: was very good. I thought even there was a Mariah
Speaker 1: May video as well to build her match with Tony
Speaker 1: Storm at Wembley, So on that front, I thought that
Speaker 1: was a huge plus, and it's the sort of thing
Speaker 1: I would like to see them do more of on
Speaker 1: these shows. So many times we get kind of like
Speaker 1: the abbreviated versions of a longer package that ends up
Speaker 1: on social media they don't air on TV. But I
Speaker 1: do think in this case, to try to really push
Speaker 1: the key matches, it was something that needed to be done,
Speaker 1: So I thought that was good. What was not good
Speaker 1: is the fact that four months have elapsed since we
Speaker 1: had our last aw World Tag Team Championship match. It
Speaker 1: was the Young Bucks winning the titles at Dynasty that
Speaker 1: was back in April. It has taken four months for
Speaker 1: us to get the Young Bucks on television or anywhere
Speaker 1: for that matter, pay per view TV to finally defend
Speaker 1: those titles. And it finally happened tonight in a match
Speaker 1: with an ending so flat that even aj Styles believes
Speaker 1: in it not a great match between the Young Bucks
Speaker 1: and the Acclaimed, with a finish that sets up now
Speaker 1: the very predictable match coming up this weekend. Between the
Speaker 1: Acclaimed and FTR. So yes, we had four months in
Speaker 1: between AW tag team title matches, including a team in
Speaker 1: the Acclaim that was crowned Number one Contenders two months ago.
Speaker 1: We had four months to wait before getting another title match,
Speaker 1: and coming out of the title match tonight, it set
Speaker 1: up another number one contenders match. This tag team division
Speaker 1: right now is in shambles in this company. This tag
Speaker 1: team division, the tag team situation right now in AAW
Speaker 1: is a fuck mess, and it's sad because at one
Speaker 1: time it was the It was really, in many ways
Speaker 1: the pillar of this company. They had the best tag
Speaker 1: team division in the world. And to see the way
Speaker 1: that it has been booked, in the way that it
Speaker 1: has been handled over the last several months, really this
Speaker 1: entire year has been a disgrace. Swerve Strickland, he was
Speaker 1: in the main event tonight, as he should be because
Speaker 1: he is, of course the AW World champion. Non title
Speaker 1: match against Wheeler Dah doesn't matter. Wheeler Uda was in
Speaker 1: there to be a punching bag. It was Swarve Strickland
Speaker 1: sending a message to Brian Danielson heading into their match
Speaker 1: at all in where Brian Danielson has said that if
Speaker 1: he does not win, he will retire, and not just well,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm going to retire from full time competition.
Speaker 1: He has said that he will retire legit for real,
Speaker 1: once and for all. That's it, career over if he
Speaker 1: does not win the championship at Wembley State and Swarve
Speaker 1: Strickland went out there tonight and sent him the message
Speaker 1: to him loud and clear, saying, not only am I
Speaker 1: going to retire you, but I'm gonna have your little
Speaker 1: girl in the front row. If your family's gonna be there,
Speaker 1: she's gonna be in the front row like Brian was tonight,
Speaker 1: to get a front row seat to watch her daddy
Speaker 1: fulfill his promise to her because he had told, I
Speaker 1: guess it was Bertie that when she turned seven he
Speaker 1: would stop wrestling, and so Swerve wanted to make it
Speaker 1: very clear he intends to make sure Brian follows through
Speaker 1: on that promise. And they did it in a way
Speaker 1: where you would almost watch it and think the wait,
Speaker 1: was this a healed turn for Swerve Strickland. It wasn't
Speaker 1: a heel turn. What we saw tonight was Swerve going
Speaker 1: out there and doing what needed to be done. He's
Speaker 1: going into the biggest match of his life at Wembley
Speaker 1: Stadium and his intent, his goal is to put this
Speaker 1: man down and add another feather in his cap. Not
Speaker 1: only is the man who beat Brian Danielson in his
Speaker 1: final match, but retired Brian dangleson. It's a side of
Speaker 1: swerve that we saw a lot of when he was
Speaker 1: a heel. But it's a side of swerve that we
Speaker 1: should be seeing. It's a side of swerve that we
Speaker 1: need to be seeing. So I like what they did
Speaker 1: with those two In the main event. We had one
Speaker 1: new match tonight added to the Wembley card, a championship match.
Speaker 1: We also had another match already announced that now has
Speaker 1: a new stipulation added to it, and we know the
Speaker 1: first entrant. We know who the first man will be
Speaker 1: entering the Casino Gauntlet match at all in for a
Speaker 1: future shot at the AW World Heavyweight Championship. Like I said,
Speaker 1: a very focused episode tonight focused on the things that mattered,
Speaker 1: which really was the key matches coming up in less
Speaker 1: than two weeks in front of the fifty thousand people
Speaker 1: that they are expecting maybe a little less at Wembley Stadium.
Speaker 1: It did what it needed to do. I can't sit
Speaker 1: here and tell you again that it was a terribly
Speaker 1: exciting show. It was certainly better than last week, but
Speaker 1: it is still missing something. There's just something that it's missing.
Speaker 1: You know, there was a period of time earlier this year,
Speaker 1: I want to say, maybe February into March where Dynamite,
Speaker 1: I mean Tony Kahan was banging these episodes out. They
Speaker 1: were rocking and rolling man Dynamite was on a roll
Speaker 1: quality wise. I don't know why. I don't remember what
Speaker 1: the numbers were, but quality wise, this show was banging
Speaker 1: out great episode after great episode, So I know they
Speaker 1: still have it in them to do that. We're just
Speaker 1: not getting it right now at a time when they
Speaker 1: are heading into their biggest show of the year. And
Speaker 1: that's too bad. But again, little victories. I enjoyed this
Speaker 1: show more than I did last week, so I'll take it.
Speaker 1: This is your aw Dynamite review. It is Wednesday, August fourteenth,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. I am the Solemn Monster. Thank you
Speaker 1: all for joining me here on a Wednesday night. Tony
Speaker 1: Kahan got machine Head by Bush as the official theme song.
Speaker 1: It looks like for all In again. They used it
Speaker 1: last year as well. Jim Johnston actually made a pretty
Speaker 1: bitchin cover of that many years ago that they used.
Speaker 1: If you remember, it was the official theme song for
Speaker 1: No Way Out back in two thousand and one, and
Speaker 1: WWE used it for some of their UK only pay
Speaker 1: per views back then. I guess they never got sued
Speaker 1: for it because it was pretty clear what the inspiration
Speaker 1: for the song was. So the show kicked off tonight
Speaker 1: with the TBS champion, Mercedes Monet defending her title against
Speaker 1: Hikaru Shida, who her all in opponent Britt Baker defeated
Speaker 1: only a few weeks ago on TV. I thought it
Speaker 1: was a good way to open the show. You opened
Speaker 1: with a championship match, so I thought that was smart.
Speaker 1: And no commercials as well to interrupt. I think they
Speaker 1: went the first twenty minutes of the show uninterrupted, so
Speaker 1: that was a welcome change. Late in the match, Mercedes
Speaker 1: went for the three Amigo. She got two out of
Speaker 1: the three, she'da countered the final one into a falcon arrow.
Speaker 1: Camille pulled Monette outside to safety because of course, she
Speaker 1: got her insurance policy watching her back in her corner.
Speaker 1: Now pulled Mercedes out of the ring, but Camille ate
Speaker 1: a dropkick through the ropes by Chita, who smashed her
Speaker 1: with a kendo stick. Chidah reared back with the kendo
Speaker 1: stick for another shot. Mercedes, though, reached out of the ring,
Speaker 1: grabbed the kendo stick out of her hand and she
Speaker 1: was threatening to use it. She was arguing with the
Speaker 1: referee who was telling her, you know, in the ring,
Speaker 1: to drop the stick. While this was going on and
Speaker 1: the referee was distracted, Camille blasted Chida right in the
Speaker 1: face with a big boot and then back inside, Mercedes
Speaker 1: hit her monet maker to put the finishing touches on
Speaker 1: Shida to retain the TBS title. They had what I
Speaker 1: thought was a good match. But yeah, again I have
Speaker 1: to say it, Mercedes needs a new finish. This monet
Speaker 1: maker it ain't working. It's sucks. It just fucking sucks.
Speaker 1: It never looks good. It's always clunky, it just looks awkward.
Speaker 1: I don't know part of it. I think it's just
Speaker 1: the move itself. But she's also I think in some cases,
Speaker 1: just maybe not big enough. She's too small maybe to
Speaker 1: hit the move in a way that makes it look good.
Speaker 1: Whatever it is, she's got to find a new finish.
Speaker 1: It's just very awkward. It never looks good. And for
Speaker 1: somebody in her position, who they are positioning as one
Speaker 1: of the top faces in the company and top faces
Speaker 1: in that division, she just needs to find a more
Speaker 1: impactful move, something that's a little bit easier for her
Speaker 1: to execute, because again, even the setup for it, it's
Speaker 1: just very clunky. I hope that she will find a
Speaker 1: new move. Brit Baker's music hit and Camille was ready
Speaker 1: to go. She's outside the ring, she's at the foot
Speaker 1: of the ram. She's waiting for Brick to come out.
Speaker 1: There's no Britt Baker. Camille then looks over to her
Speaker 1: right and she sees in the front row there is
Speaker 1: a fan, a fan dressed up in a mask, hoodie
Speaker 1: over the head sting mask. We've seen this before, I think, Britt,
Speaker 1: I believe a few weeks ago, may have dressed up
Speaker 1: that way. So Camille pulls the fan over the barricade
Speaker 1: and begins to beat the hell out of this person,
Speaker 1: never pulling off the mask. You would think, you know,
Speaker 1: she would want to confirm who this person is, that
Speaker 1: it is in fact Britt Baker, but does not pull
Speaker 1: the mask off, and as she is just beating up
Speaker 1: on this person. Mercedes is in the ring and she's
Speaker 1: got the kendo stick and she's got her back turn
Speaker 1: and she's watching this all play out. Then we hear
Speaker 1: the crowd, you know, commotion, and we see Britt Baker
Speaker 1: is coming through the crowd, very casually, walking through the
Speaker 1: crowd to the ring, in no great rush to get there,
Speaker 1: which I didn't understand. So eventually she makes her way
Speaker 1: down to the ring, and now she's going to take
Speaker 1: time to put her glove on her hand. Well, by
Speaker 1: this point, she's wasted so much time. Mercedes has turned
Speaker 1: around and sees her. Brit gets into the ring. Mercedes
Speaker 1: takes a swing at her with the kendostick. She avoids
Speaker 1: the shot and she gets Mercedes down for lockjaw, but
Speaker 1: Camille pulls Mercedes out of the ring to safety before
Speaker 1: she could get the hold applied. So this was Britt
Speaker 1: Baker's return. This was her big return post suspension, both
Speaker 1: storyline suspension and real life suspension, and she got a
Speaker 1: superstar reaction, you know, coming through the crowd down to
Speaker 1: the ring. The problem is, it just feels to me
Speaker 1: like this feud peaked after that first segment in the
Speaker 1: ring where they traded promos, and after that there really
Speaker 1: hasn't been much of anything. Now. I know Britt got suspended,
Speaker 1: so she's been off television for the last few weeks,
Speaker 1: not including her little via satellite promo on the show
Speaker 1: last week, so that may have hurt things a little bit,
Speaker 1: but there just has not been anything compelling here really
Speaker 1: since that first segment between the two of them. Now,
Speaker 1: I like the addition of Commie. I think that's great,
Speaker 1: and I think that we are going to get Jamie
Speaker 1: Hayter at Wembley Stadium. I hope that if she's coming back,
Speaker 1: they save it for Wembley and they don't throw her
Speaker 1: out there on TV next week. I don't think they will.
Speaker 1: That should be a Wembley surprise. But they got one
Speaker 1: more week, so maybe we get a contract signing. I
Speaker 1: know those are played out, but just something that gets
Speaker 1: them in the ring together, and maybe they could do
Speaker 1: the whole no physicality thing and just go back to
Speaker 1: what brought them to the dance here, the first thing
Speaker 1: that really kicked this thing off, which was the in
Speaker 1: ring promo. Let's get them in the ring, Let's get
Speaker 1: them cutting promos on each other. Now, I know that
Speaker 1: is not mercedes strongsuit. She has not had any real
Speaker 1: great promos so far in aw Britt Baker has been
Speaker 1: actually pretty good, I think on the stick. So I
Speaker 1: don't know what we'll get out of Mercedes if they
Speaker 1: do that, but I think we need something like that,
Speaker 1: all right. We don't need any more of this cat
Speaker 1: and mouse bullshit. I'd like to see them in the ring,
Speaker 1: actually in an acting one last time before their big
Speaker 1: match at Wembley. I think that's the way to go.
Speaker 1: But Britt has really outshined her, I think in that
Speaker 1: regard so far. I don't think that there's any real
Speaker 1: question about that. But it really does feel like they peaked.
Speaker 1: They peaked in week one and it's almost as if
Speaker 1: they just didn't have any other good ideas to get
Speaker 1: from where they were then all the way to the
Speaker 1: twenty fifth at Wembley. But thankfully now we're not that
Speaker 1: far away now. They aired footage of the chaos that
Speaker 1: unfolded after Dynamite went off the air last week, with
Speaker 1: Hangman Page going at it with Jeff Jarrett. This led
Speaker 1: to a live promo here with Rene in the back
Speaker 1: with Jay lethal Sonjay Dutt, Jeff and Karen Jarrett. She
Speaker 1: said Hangman has been a thorn in their side since returning,
Speaker 1: and just as Jeff started to get all riled up,
Speaker 1: Hangman ran in. He attacked Jarrett and Sanjay before brawling
Speaker 1: with Jay. Lethal to the ring to start their match,
Speaker 1: which was Hangman Page one on one with Jay Lethal.
Speaker 1: So right as the bell sounded, Lethal hit not one,
Speaker 1: not two, not three, not four, five consecutive suicide dives
Speaker 1: that had the people reacting. Big. Lethal brought Page to
Speaker 1: the apron. Hangman, though, immediately countered into a dead eye
Speaker 1: and dropped him right on top of his head on
Speaker 1: the ring apron, right on the edge, and then he
Speaker 1: sent Lethal hurdling over the timekeeper's table. As they cut
Speaker 1: the commercial, Lethal tried stringing together some offense, but this
Speaker 1: was mostly all Hangman, as it should have been. Death
Speaker 1: Valley Drivers spiked Lethal for a near fall. Page, though
Speaker 1: noticed he was bleeding from the mouth. That only pissed
Speaker 1: him off even more. That made him more enraged. Page
Speaker 1: kicked free from a figure four leg lock and applied
Speaker 1: a cross face, but Lethal countered into a roll up
Speaker 1: for a two count. Lethal again went for four page,
Speaker 1: They'll rake the eyes, and then hit a huge discus lariot,
Speaker 1: referee was checking on lethal. He slowly rose back to
Speaker 1: his feet ended up eating a Buckshot lariat to give
Speaker 1: Hangman the win. This was a much needed win for
Speaker 1: Hangman page coming into this, he had lost his last
Speaker 1: three straight. He lost to Brian Danielson in the Owenhard Tournament,
Speaker 1: he was on the losing team in Blood and Guts,
Speaker 1: and he lost to Darby Allot a few weeks ago.
Speaker 1: So he needed to get back to his winning ways
Speaker 1: and that's what he did here. Hangman has no match
Speaker 1: announced for Wembley Stadium, which is ridiculous, but there is
Speaker 1: a casino Gauntlet match on this show with the winner
Speaker 1: getting a guaranteed shot at the AW World Heavyweight Championship
Speaker 1: at a later date. Hangman should absolutely be in that match.
Speaker 1: I do not want to see him against Jeff Jarrett
Speaker 1: at Wembley Stadium, and it could happen. It could be
Speaker 1: a late addition to the card next week, or they
Speaker 1: could throw it on the pre show. Hangman should be
Speaker 1: and you want to put Jared in there too, be
Speaker 1: my guest, but Hangman should be in the Casino Gauntlet
Speaker 1: match and he should win because clearly they don't have
Speaker 1: anything else better than that plan for him. But the
Speaker 1: fact that the winner gets a future AW World Championship
Speaker 1: match is perfect because right now, the man that he
Speaker 1: hates the most, the man that he hates more than
Speaker 1: anything else in the entire world, is the AW World
Speaker 1: Heavyweight Champion at least for another two weeks, and so
Speaker 1: he should want to be in that gauntlet, and he
Speaker 1: should win that gauntlet. Now he's got a guarantee championship
Speaker 1: match in his back pocket and he could use it
Speaker 1: as soon as all out two weeks later. Assuming that
Speaker 1: Swerve comes out of Wembley as the champion, you could
Speaker 1: potentially do that match as early as September seventh in Chicago.
Speaker 1: I would actually hold off. I would hold off on
Speaker 1: that even if Swerve comes out of this show with
Speaker 1: the world Championship, I still would like to see them
Speaker 1: maybe whole off a little bit longer before doing that match.
Speaker 1: But if Swerve does not come out of Wembley as
Speaker 1: the World Heavyweight Champion, and right now I would say
Speaker 1: the betting odds are on that being the case and
Speaker 1: Brian Danielson walking out as the AW World Champion, then
Speaker 1: you could save the match for Full Gear because Full
Speaker 1: Gear is going to be the one year anniversary of
Speaker 1: their Texas Deathmatch, the most violent match that I have
Speaker 1: ever seen, and it would be appropriate if one year later,
Speaker 1: on that same show, we have Swerve and Hangman again,
Speaker 1: but this time the World Championship is on the line.
Speaker 1: And it's incredible too, because this feud kicked off a
Speaker 1: wrestle dream Okay in October of last year, and we
Speaker 1: had the first ever match between Hangman and Swerve, and
Speaker 1: I didn't know what to expect going in, but I
Speaker 1: remember at the time, I'm like, this is great because
Speaker 1: this could be a real launching pad for Swerve and
Speaker 1: it's a fresh match, so I was excited going into it.
Speaker 1: I had no idea that not only would it be
Speaker 1: a launching pad for Swerve, but what we would have
Speaker 1: out of this is this blood feud between these two
Speaker 1: that almost a year later, is still ongoing, and it's great. Honestly,
Speaker 1: It's my favorite thing right now about aaw and I'm
Speaker 1: liking what they're doing with Hangman since he came back,
Speaker 1: always pissed off, kind of the New Evil theme music,
Speaker 1: and no matter what he's doing, no matter who he's
Speaker 1: in the ring, with it always comes back to Swerve.
Speaker 1: He is obsessed with this man for what he did
Speaker 1: to him last year. He has not been able to
Speaker 1: let go of what happened as far as we know
Speaker 1: in storyline. His family's all busted up now, he had
Speaker 1: to move out of his home. He's got good reason
Speaker 1: to be upset with this man. So if they could
Speaker 1: find a way to run this back in November at
Speaker 1: full gear, I think that would be very appropriate that way,
Speaker 1: If let's say that's how it happens. Tony Kahan gives
Speaker 1: Brian Danielson a solid month as the AW World Heavyweight Champion.
Speaker 1: He'll defend the title against Darby Allen a Grand Slam
Speaker 1: later next month because Darby's got the shot all banked
Speaker 1: and ready to go. And when we get to Wrestle
Speaker 1: Dream and Tacoma, you run it back one more time
Speaker 1: Brian Swerve. Swerve gets a big win, gets the championship back,
Speaker 1: and guess what, hangman, hey there he is, I'm cashing
Speaker 1: in full gear and you did the title match one
Speaker 1: on one. I like that now. If it were me,
Speaker 1: of course I would have Swerve win at Wembley, But
Speaker 1: in this case, I'm fine with either one of these ideas.
Speaker 1: That's how I would kind of map this whole thing out.
Speaker 1: As long as we get to Swerve and Hangman in
Speaker 1: the next few months, then it's all good. Now. They
Speaker 1: aired a long, really good video package promoting MJF against
Speaker 1: will Ospray It all in. This is the first of
Speaker 1: several video packages on this show, hyping up the key
Speaker 1: matches on that pay per view. In this video, they
Speaker 1: included footage of MJF defending his American champ and ship
Speaker 1: against Michael Oku in Rev Pro this past week I
Speaker 1: believe where will Ospray made an appearance. After the match
Speaker 1: was over. He came to the aid of Oku's wife
Speaker 1: who was about to eat a tiger driver from MJF
Speaker 1: and MJF was able to escape. This then led into
Speaker 1: them in this video highlighting will Osprey's rise over his career,
Speaker 1: and they included footage of him from the indie scene
Speaker 1: back in his early days when he was just a
Speaker 1: skinny kid. You know, he's a little less skinny now,
Speaker 1: but you know, pretty much looks the same. Put out
Speaker 1: a little bulk, but you know, for the most part,
Speaker 1: still looks the same. And I just thought this was
Speaker 1: excellent This was a long video package that we're not
Speaker 1: used to seeing here on this show. It was several
Speaker 1: minutes long, but it was very, very good, and it
Speaker 1: got me excited to see these two go at it
Speaker 1: again at Wembley Stadium. So to that end, I think
Speaker 1: could achieved what it was supposed to achieve. As I
Speaker 1: said earlier, so many times on this show we get
Speaker 1: a lot of fruncated videos because they just don't want
Speaker 1: to dedicate three or four minutes to a video package.
Speaker 1: So we'll get a minute, or we'll get ninety seconds
Speaker 1: and then you have to go on YouTube and you
Speaker 1: can see the full version of it. But tonight, not
Speaker 1: a problem tonight, and this was such a good video.
Speaker 1: I'm glad they aired the entire thing on TV. We
Speaker 1: go backstage to our old friend Pack who asked the
Speaker 1: cameraman to tell him who is the number one contender
Speaker 1: for the American Championship. He said, it's not well, Osprey,
Speaker 1: it's him because he did he won a match to
Speaker 1: earn the right to challenge for the International title as
Speaker 1: it was then. It's been so long now that the
Speaker 1: title has been renamed. Now it's the American Championship, he said,
Speaker 1: he's sick and tired of being constantly overlooked and treated
Speaker 1: like a bum. Anythink Wardlove Feels says that was his
Speaker 1: ticket to win moment or to his Wembley moment. But
Speaker 1: it's okay because he said he's going to be challenging
Speaker 1: the winner of the match at Wembley between MJF and
Speaker 1: Will Osprey for that championship in Chicago two weeks later
Speaker 1: at all Out, and he said that that is going
Speaker 1: to take place in the same building where he beat
Speaker 1: Kenny Omega five years ago, and indeed that is the case.
Speaker 1: They had to match at the first all out in
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen and Pack beat Omega. I don't understand why
Speaker 1: they would have Pack on television for weeks talking about
Speaker 1: and cutting promos about getting his Wembley moment. His goal
Speaker 1: was to make sure that he was able to get
Speaker 1: his Wembley moment. Now he's content to get his championship
Speaker 1: match two weeks after Wembley in Chicago. So we have
Speaker 1: gone from a Wembley moment for Pack to a Cago
Speaker 1: moment and I just don't understand that. So is Pack
Speaker 1: just not going to be on the Wembley card at
Speaker 1: all or they're just going to stick him in some
Speaker 1: random match to give him something to do, because he
Speaker 1: really what he should be in. He should also be
Speaker 1: in that Casino Gauntlet match. The problem with that is
Speaker 1: he's already got this International Slash American title match in
Speaker 1: his back pocket that he is going to receive on
Speaker 1: September seventh. We now know he goes into the Casino
Speaker 1: Gauntlet it all in two weeks before that and wins.
Speaker 1: Now he's got a guaranteed aw World Championship match. I
Speaker 1: don't see them doing that. They're not going to have
Speaker 1: him win and now he's got a shot at two
Speaker 1: different championships at the same time. It just doesn't make
Speaker 1: any sense why they would do that. But if he
Speaker 1: goes in there and loses, I really don't think that
Speaker 1: he should be going in there and losing two weeks
Speaker 1: before he's got this big championship match coming up. So
Speaker 1: they're in a bit of a conundrum here with him.
Speaker 1: I just don't I just don't understand why you wouldn't
Speaker 1: have him on that show and again be talking about
Speaker 1: this Wembley moment just for him to not even be
Speaker 1: on the fucking show. So I feel like he almost
Speaker 1: has to be in that match, the idea that I
Speaker 1: floated a few weeks ago, and I've heard nothing about
Speaker 1: you know them doing this. They certainly didn't set it
Speaker 1: up tonight. I thought we were going to get in
Speaker 1: this promo. I thought where he was going with this
Speaker 1: was him saying, look, I'm number one contender for this title,
Speaker 1: and I see that I'm left out in the cold again,
Speaker 1: So I guess that won't be my Wembley moment. So
Speaker 1: I'm going to make my own Wembley moment, and I'm
Speaker 1: going to show up and I'm going to throw out
Speaker 1: an open challenge, because why the fuck not? Everybody else
Speaker 1: in this company throws out an open challenge, so why
Speaker 1: not Pack At least now he has a good reason
Speaker 1: for it. I'm coming to Wembley. I'm walking out there
Speaker 1: to that ring. Anybody who wants to come out face
Speaker 1: to be one on one and take my Wembley moment
Speaker 1: away from me, be my guest comes to the ring.
Speaker 1: We get the debut of Ricochet in aw because that's
Speaker 1: likely where he's going to end up, and we get
Speaker 1: Pack in Rikoshee, and it's a similar thing there because
Speaker 1: you're not going to beat Rikoshey in his first match.
Speaker 1: But you really don't want to beat Pack, So I
Speaker 1: kind of get it if they don't want to do that.
Speaker 1: I just thought that would be a pretty badass idea.
Speaker 1: That'd be a pretty badass addition to the card. But
Speaker 1: I understand if they're kind of up against the wall
Speaker 1: if Tony Kahan doesn't want to do that. But for
Speaker 1: the love of God, I mean, get this man something
Speaker 1: on this show. After cutting all of these promos. I
Speaker 1: feel sorry for the bastard. He went from his Wembley
Speaker 1: moment in front of fifty thousand people to a Chicago
Speaker 1: moment in a match where he is likely going to
Speaker 1: lose anyway. They aired footage of Darby Allen beating the
Speaker 1: Butcher on Rampage last week. Boy, I'm sorry I missed that, man, Man,
Speaker 1: I should go back and watch that. I think I
Speaker 1: need to go back and watch that Darby Allen against
Speaker 1: the Butcher. I can't believe I missed that one. And
Speaker 1: they showed him teaming with Hologram on Collision to defeat
Speaker 1: the Premier Athletes. Then we got a video with Darby
Speaker 1: saying that years ago he was killing himself on the
Speaker 1: Independent Circuit for nothing. Now he gets to kill himself.
Speaker 1: I guess at least now he's making money doing it.
Speaker 1: He's still killing himself, but at least now he's making
Speaker 1: some good coin. But then he heard about AAW starting
Speaker 1: up this little promotion called All Elite Wrestling, and he
Speaker 1: was living in his car and he heard that AW
Speaker 1: had signed Jungle Boy Jack Perry, and he wondered, who
Speaker 1: the fuck is Jack Perry. He said, no one believed
Speaker 1: in his tarzan bs, which is cool. He can be
Speaker 1: himself now, which is a child who doesn't deserve respect.
Speaker 1: Every week Darby goes out and kills himself. And with
Speaker 1: all the stuff that Perry has pulled recently, he wishes
Speaker 1: that he would have gotten fired At Wembley, he says,
Speaker 1: they put an end to this. So this video led
Speaker 1: to Darby making his entrance live in the arena, but
Speaker 1: he got wiped out by a charging Jack Perry, who
Speaker 1: was I guess he came out of the crowd. He was,
Speaker 1: Actually he came out in front of Darby, came running
Speaker 1: up the ramp and then just blasted him right in
Speaker 1: the head with a leaping knee strike. Perry then dragged
Speaker 1: him backstage. The two of them. They cut to the back.
Speaker 1: The two of them were brawling, only for Perry to
Speaker 1: rake the eyes and he threw a trash can at Darby.
Speaker 1: So then Darby's laying on the ground. Perry then lowers
Speaker 1: a garage door down onto Darby's chest and so now
Speaker 1: he is trapped under the weight of this door. Perry
Speaker 1: then goes and he is going to roll a giant
Speaker 1: equipment case, one of those giant crates. He's gonna roll
Speaker 1: it into Darby or dark Head because he's laying on
Speaker 1: the ground. Security jumping the way to stop him. Perry
Speaker 1: then says he wants their match at Wembley to be
Speaker 1: a coffin match, and after the match, Tony Kahan makes
Speaker 1: it official at all In it will be Jack Perry
Speaker 1: defending the TNT Championship against Darby Allen and it will
Speaker 1: be a coffin match. And this will be the second
Speaker 1: year in a row at Wembley that we have a
Speaker 1: coffin match involving Darby Allen, because last year he teamed
Speaker 1: up with Sting to take on Swerve Strickland and Christian
Speaker 1: Cage in a coffin match. So this is now the
Speaker 1: second straight year Perry is also no stranger to coffin
Speaker 1: matches or coffin tight matches, because if you remember, he
Speaker 1: had that final burial match with Christian Cage a Revolution
Speaker 1: last year, which was basically a coffin match with some
Speaker 1: dirt thrown in. So both these men have experience in that,
Speaker 1: and you know what, sure, why not let's make it
Speaker 1: a coffin match, because okay, why not? We got another
Speaker 1: video package, this time with the lovely Mariah May, the
Speaker 1: glamour Mariah May. She asked if it's better to be
Speaker 1: remembered or to be forgotten, to be put in the
Speaker 1: ground or go down in flames. She says she copied
Speaker 1: Tony Storm's successes, never her failures. This year it's all
Speaker 1: about Mariah, as Storm's biggest mistake was being alive at
Speaker 1: the same time as her. The tears, the taste of
Speaker 1: Storm's blood. Mariah has better things to do. One day,
Speaker 1: she'll wonder whatever happened to Tony's Storm. Don't worry, They're both
Speaker 1: going to die. It's just Mariah who will write Tony's eulogy.
Speaker 1: Good stuff. I really like these vignettes that we got tonight.
Speaker 1: I really have enjoyed the bill to Tony and Mariah.
Speaker 1: I think it is the best, I mean easily the
Speaker 1: best women's match, feud, storyline, you know, whatever words you
Speaker 1: want to use in the history of this company, in
Speaker 1: the five year history of aw this is certainly the
Speaker 1: richest women's storyline that they have had, and that segment
Speaker 1: where Mariah turned on Tony all those weeks ago is
Speaker 1: will go down as one of the greatest endings to
Speaker 1: an episode of Dynamite in the history of this company.
Speaker 1: The match going into this show that I think so
Speaker 1: far I am more invested in than any other is
Speaker 1: this match. I know some people might say, you know,
Speaker 1: Danielson and his whole retirement arc. Some people might say
Speaker 1: MJF and will Osprey, some people might say something else,
Speaker 1: Mercedes in Britain. I know that was funny, But for me,
Speaker 1: it's Tony and Mariah because it's just been so long.
Speaker 1: It's been such a long kind of road to get
Speaker 1: to where we are, and I think they've done a
Speaker 1: tremendous job with it, and I'm looking forward to what
Speaker 1: I believe is going to be a more violent match
Speaker 1: than maybe some people are expecting. I think for all
Speaker 1: the blood that we saw all those weeks ago on
Speaker 1: Tony Storm's face. I think both women are going to bleed.
Speaker 1: I think both women are going to absolutely destroy each
Speaker 1: other in this match. They're going to go all out
Speaker 1: at all in, and they could have the sleeper match
Speaker 1: on the show, but going into it, this is the
Speaker 1: one that I am looking forward to. It that I
Speaker 1: am more invested in story wise than anything else on
Speaker 1: this show. Now, Renee Coming Back Live was backstage with
Speaker 1: Mina Shirakawa of Stardom. She's back. She has flown back
Speaker 1: here to the US. No complaints from me anytime we
Speaker 1: get to see Mina, okay. In my book, she says
Speaker 1: she hasn't heard from either Mariah or Tony since the
Speaker 1: split happened, but it left her heart broken. She's never
Speaker 1: seen Mariah be so vicious or Tony be so vengeful,
Speaker 1: and she hopes that neither woman ends up too hurt
Speaker 1: after all. In the other thing I liked about this show,
Speaker 1: and this was another example it We had multiple instances,
Speaker 1: like at least two or three different times on the
Speaker 1: show where they would have like a video package or
Speaker 1: some kind of vignette or pre taped segment and it
Speaker 1: just flowed nicely into a secondary segment or a follow
Speaker 1: up segment involving some of those same individuals. So again,
Speaker 1: this show just felt it felt very well put together
Speaker 1: in that way. The stories flowed nicely in a way
Speaker 1: that Dynamite is not always like that. It could be
Speaker 1: a little chaotic sometimes not the case tonight, and I
Speaker 1: thought that was a good thing. We had Orange Cassidy,
Speaker 1: Roderick Strong, and Kyle O'Reilly in a three way match
Speaker 1: to earn the right to be the number one entry
Speaker 1: in the Casino Gauntlet match coming up at all In,
Speaker 1: and the announcers made it very clear that you want
Speaker 1: to be the number one entrant because in these Casino
Speaker 1: Gauntlet matches they can end at any time, So you
Speaker 1: could have the first two people come out and somebody
Speaker 1: gets pinned the matches over like there's a set number
Speaker 1: of people and they all have to be called out first,
Speaker 1: like the Royal Rumble or like a war Games match,
Speaker 1: right all ten men are in, let the games begin like.
Speaker 1: It doesn't work that way, So you want to win
Speaker 1: this match as quickly as possible. So if you are
Speaker 1: the number one entrant, you will have the opportunity to
Speaker 1: put an end to this before the ring fills up
Speaker 1: with a whole bunch of different people, so it makes
Speaker 1: sense that you would want to be in that number
Speaker 1: one spot. Whoever ends up drawing number two though, in
Speaker 1: this gauntlet is going to be a lucky man because
Speaker 1: unless they do a match next week for the number
Speaker 1: two spot, the number two spot's gonna have a lot
Speaker 1: easier time entering the match than these three guys who
Speaker 1: had to fight for it. Number one and number two
Speaker 1: are basically the same, just like the rumble, right, everyone
Speaker 1: makes a big deal about who's going to be number one.
Speaker 1: Nobody ever talks about number two, yet number two is
Speaker 1: the same exact thing as number one, which is always
Speaker 1: funny to me that they make such a big deal
Speaker 1: about number one. Number two is like, Hi, I'm here,
Speaker 1: I'm well rested. So this was all action from beginning
Speaker 1: to end. Matt Tavin and Mike Bennett. They came out
Speaker 1: in the middle of the match. They were running distraction
Speaker 1: for Roddy, but Mark Briscoe and tomohiro E. She ran
Speaker 1: out to put a stop to that. Brisco catapulted off
Speaker 1: of a chair, did a dive out onto the pile
Speaker 1: of heels on the outside before fighting the Kingdom to
Speaker 1: the back. Roddy had Cassidy trapped at a clover leaf,
Speaker 1: but Kyle cut it off. There was a tilta world
Speaker 1: to Roderick Strong, who tossed Orange Cassidy right into a
Speaker 1: ddt on O'Reilly, which was a cool visual. O'Reilly and
Speaker 1: Strong hit a high low on oc both tried for
Speaker 1: a cover. Bryce Remsburg put a stop to that. O'Reilly
Speaker 1: and Strong. They slugged it out. Cassidy ran into a
Speaker 1: pumpany from Roddy, O'Reilly ate a sick kick O'Reilly counter
Speaker 1: the end of Heartache into his submission hole. But then
Speaker 1: Orange Cassidy was there to get a crucifix and he
Speaker 1: rolled him up for the flashpin to win the match.
Speaker 1: So Orange Cassidy is going to enter the Gauntlet. It
Speaker 1: all in in the number one spot. I don't really
Speaker 1: see this being any great surprise. I mean, if you
Speaker 1: pay attention to this show, certainly Orange Cassidy is well
Speaker 1: protected and booked as one of their bigger stars, So
Speaker 1: not much of a surprise there. Look again, I thought
Speaker 1: it was a fun match, right, some good action here.
Speaker 1: It ties into a match coming up with the pay
Speaker 1: per view. I don't know how many people really give
Speaker 1: a shit about who's going to enter at number one,
Speaker 1: but you know, at least there was a story there
Speaker 1: going into the Gauntlet. It's a story that I feel
Speaker 1: like we have seen play out many times before with
Speaker 1: Orange Cassidy. We saw it when he was the International Champion,
Speaker 1: where he defended that title almost every single week, and
Speaker 1: they played up how beat up he was and how
Speaker 1: hurt he was, and he looked half dead every week
Speaker 1: he would show up to the show. Now he's going
Speaker 1: to go in here a number one, and he'll probably
Speaker 1: be in there for a while, and it's gonna be
Speaker 1: the same story. You know, Can he survive? Can Orange
Speaker 1: Cassidy's coming in at number one? You know, can he
Speaker 1: survive it? Can he win the entire thing? I hope not.
Speaker 1: I don't expect him to, But I feel like this
Speaker 1: is the same story that they've been telling with Cassidy
Speaker 1: now for the last two years. Renee was backstage with
Speaker 1: Claudio Castignoli, the number one contender for the Continental Championship
Speaker 1: next week, and the champion himself, Kazuschko Okada. They were
Speaker 1: both in the back. They were dressed up in their
Speaker 1: suits to be interviewed by Renee. This is to promote
Speaker 1: their match on Dynamite next week in Cardiff, Wales. So
Speaker 1: the match is not it all in, it's on Dynamite
Speaker 1: next week. I think the first official I think it's
Speaker 1: the first international Dynamite, certainly the first Dynamite in Cardiff,
Speaker 1: which is where the first Clash of the Castle took
Speaker 1: place in WWE. So they promoted this face to face
Speaker 1: all week long, which I assume was going to be
Speaker 1: in front of the crowd in the ring, but instead
Speaker 1: they just did it in the back. But you could
Speaker 1: hear the crowd audio throughout the entire segment. Claudio said
Speaker 1: he's always felt like the Continental title was his to lose.
Speaker 1: Now Claudio was Claudio cut. What I would describe is
Speaker 1: is kind of like a realistic, very low key promo,
Speaker 1: like if he was in a golf tournament and you know,
Speaker 1: put a camera in his face on the on the
Speaker 1: sideline as somebody else is taking their turn, you know
Speaker 1: it hole fifteen, He's almost like whispering into the mic. Well,
Speaker 1: you know, my strategy didn't really work out for me here,
Speaker 1: and I thought it was gonna win, but you know,
Speaker 1: it didn't really go my way, but I have a
Speaker 1: lot of hope that I'm going to do better next time.
Speaker 1: Like that, that's the kind of promo he was. I'm like,
Speaker 1: come on, dude, drovese some more life here, Claudio, come on,
Speaker 1: I love your brother, but you got you gotta amp
Speaker 1: up the energy here. But he was talking about how
Speaker 1: it was tough to lose in the Continental Classic and
Speaker 1: not come that on the winning end, he promised that
Speaker 1: this time he would make the title shot count. Okada
Speaker 1: mockingly applauded him, said that twelve men fought for this championship,
Speaker 1: but I'm the champion. Said He's a four time g
Speaker 1: One Climax winner and Claudio will respect him. Okada said
Speaker 1: good luck, bitch, and then walked away, and when he
Speaker 1: delivered the line, you could hear everybody in the crowd
Speaker 1: popped huge for it. Because the line is over. Claudio
Speaker 1: stayed as Okada walked off, and he said that he
Speaker 1: hopes he doesn't get the elite Lackey version of Okada
Speaker 1: next week. He wants the rain maker. He wants the
Speaker 1: true rain maker, the g One rain Maker, the Tokyo
Speaker 1: Domain Event rain maker. That's the rain maker that I want.
Speaker 1: To see too. That makes two of us said Okada
Speaker 1: will have ninety nine problems and this bitch will be
Speaker 1: number one. And the crowd loved that line. Also, I
Speaker 1: love that line too. He needed a good closing line here,
Speaker 1: and we got it. The only change I would have
Speaker 1: made to this is and they want to do it
Speaker 1: in the back. That's fine because there wasn't a lot
Speaker 1: to it, which I assume is why they did this
Speaker 1: in the back. It wasn't going to be a ten
Speaker 1: or fifteen minute segment at Olkata. For his part, you know, again,
Speaker 1: English is not his first language, but his English is
Speaker 1: a lot better than a lot of the other international
Speaker 1: talents that you see on TV. I thought his English
Speaker 1: was fine, and again his closing line got over got
Speaker 1: a big reaction. The one change I would have made,
Speaker 1: I would not have had him walk off and then
Speaker 1: have Claudio deliver the remainder of the promo to the camera.
Speaker 1: I would have had him stand there and have Claudio
Speaker 1: stare him in the face and deliver those lines to
Speaker 1: his face. So it's like a minor thing. But that's
Speaker 1: the only thing I would have changed about it. I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you, I would be shocked if we do
Speaker 1: not get an Okata match at Wembley Stadium. This man
Speaker 1: is one of the best in the world. They made
Speaker 1: a big deal about his signing. He is obviously one
Speaker 1: of the most I mean he's got. If he's not
Speaker 1: the highest paid, he is one of the highest paid
Speaker 1: stars on that I am sure. And there were a
Speaker 1: lot of rumors that came out he's making eleven million dollars.
Speaker 1: I don't believe any of that bullshit, but believe me,
Speaker 1: he's getting paid very well, very handsomely by Tony Kahn.
Speaker 1: And I just don't understand that you would have him
Speaker 1: on your roster. He's not injured and you would not
Speaker 1: have him on the card. It doesn't make any sense
Speaker 1: to me. I just can't fathom that he would not
Speaker 1: wind up on that show in some way. Now, this
Speaker 1: match with Claudio is on TV next Wednesday, the final
Speaker 1: Dynamite before All In, and they're going to headline the
Speaker 1: show with it, and it's gonna be a raucous atmosphere.
Speaker 1: They're going to be in Cardiff. They'll probably have a
Speaker 1: nice crowd, you know how these international crowds could be.
Speaker 1: So I think it's going to be a fun match
Speaker 1: and I think it's going to be a fun atmosphere
Speaker 1: in that building. But I'm looking ahead and I'm saying, Okay,
Speaker 1: are we going to get a disputed finish of some
Speaker 1: kind that leads to a rematch four days later at
Speaker 1: Wembley and we run it back one more time and
Speaker 1: they do Okada one on one with Claudio. That would
Speaker 1: be a very predictable way of going about doing it.
Speaker 1: What I'm wondering is there's another name that I'm surprised
Speaker 1: is not on the card at Wembley, and he has
Speaker 1: not been part of the build to the show, and
Speaker 1: that's John Moxley, who is a fellow Blackpool Combat Club
Speaker 1: card carrying member just like Claudio. He's been on a
Speaker 1: little vacation and if anybody deserves a vacation after the
Speaker 1: year he had last year, it's John Moxley. His vacation
Speaker 1: was overdue. But he's not heard either, and he's one
Speaker 1: of the biggest names that Tony Kahan has on his roster.
Speaker 1: The idea that Okada and Moxley are healthy and you're
Speaker 1: just not going to include them doesn't compute with me.
Speaker 1: So I'm wondering if they're getting the Claudio match out
Speaker 1: of the way, and then at the end of that
Speaker 1: next week, John Moxley returns and we get the late
Speaker 1: announcement that it's going to be Moxley and Okada for
Speaker 1: the championship at Wembley Stadium that I think there's a
Speaker 1: better chance of that happening, and then you get both
Speaker 1: men on the card. Not that I'm opposed to having
Speaker 1: a smaller card by by all means, please go ahead
Speaker 1: and slice the card in half, but not having either
Speaker 1: of them on the show when they're perfectly healthy and
Speaker 1: able to compete, it just doesn't make any sense to me.
Speaker 1: So don't be surprised if you see a different member
Speaker 1: of the Blackpool Combat Club getting that shot at Wembley Stadium.
Speaker 1: Ah am Ron, Samuel Wow, Samuel Hayworth dropping a learning
Speaker 1: tree of his own. He's got a gold, silver and bronze. Quiet. Hey,
Speaker 1: the Olympics are over, brother. I will answer it, though
Speaker 1: in just a little bit. We are barreling towards the
Speaker 1: Super Chat segment, so just hang on for a bit
Speaker 1: and we'll get there in a moment. We had footage
Speaker 1: that aired of the Trios Titles Number one Contenders match
Speaker 1: on Collision. It was shown between the House of Black
Speaker 1: and Bullet Club Gold, with Christian Cage as the special
Speaker 1: guest referee and the Patriarchy laying everybody in the match out.
Speaker 1: Everybody got laid out. Christian was standing tall when it
Speaker 1: was all said and done. So now we come back
Speaker 1: live and Renee was backstage with the Patriarchy and asking
Speaker 1: how the titles would be defended at Wembley Stadium because
Speaker 1: we were supposed to have a number one contender and
Speaker 1: we didn't get a number one contender, So how exactly
Speaker 1: are we going to work this out? So Christian said
Speaker 1: that he called that match right down the middle. He
Speaker 1: called that match fair and square, and that's on those
Speaker 1: teams for being losers and not winning the match. He
Speaker 1: said he's going to use the Trio's title as a
Speaker 1: vehicle to get back to the AW World Championship. He
Speaker 1: will hold every title in this company until he gets
Speaker 1: that AW World title back. Is that a promise? Look,
Speaker 1: anytime we put a title on Christian, because Christian is fantastic,
Speaker 1: that's okay with me. Remember that old there was a
Speaker 1: graphic or a meme that went around for so many years.
Speaker 1: It was Triple H posing on the turnbuckle, and he
Speaker 1: had every title on him. He was doing the triple
Speaker 1: H pose and he had every championship hanging from his
Speaker 1: arms and around his waist. Let's do that with Christian
Speaker 1: Cage and aw Hey, fine with me, but that's his goal.
Speaker 1: His goal is to get back to the aw World title. Now,
Speaker 1: he said that he's not going to be there for
Speaker 1: his son Nick Wayne, who's going to be wrestling on
Speaker 1: Rampage this week against that fatherless weirdo Kip Sabian, because
Speaker 1: he hates norfolks, so he's not sticking around. But Renee
Speaker 1: questioned if that's due to him not wanting to be
Speaker 1: around for it'll be around a couple of teams who
Speaker 1: are going to want their revenge for what happened on Collision.
Speaker 1: Christian told her to get lost and go be a mother,
Speaker 1: and then he added that she's probably a worse mom
Speaker 1: than she is an interviewer. What a prick. This guy
Speaker 1: is a prick. I think it's great. This guy's doing
Speaker 1: the best work of his career over the last couple
Speaker 1: of years. Christian Cage must be protected at all costs.
Speaker 1: I know at some point we're going to get Cope
Speaker 1: lending Christian. They're going to do the Edging Christian team again,
Speaker 1: but we need to keep him here for a little
Speaker 1: while longer. I'm not ready for bay Face Christian yet.
Speaker 1: He's too good as a heel. We go to the ring.
Speaker 1: Tony Shavanni is in the ring and he points to
Speaker 1: the sky. Now that sting is retired, they have given
Speaker 1: the Tony Shavanni call to hook, so he screams, it's hook.
Speaker 1: So we see the hook signal. Hook comes down to
Speaker 1: the ring. He's got one bandage over one eye. It's
Speaker 1: one eyed man. He's like Tongaloa. Now we have Tongaloa
Speaker 1: with his eye patch on SmackDown. Now we have Hook
Speaker 1: with the bandage over his eye on dynamite. He was
Speaker 1: blinded a month ago by Chris Jericho on a fireball.
Speaker 1: I guess his eye still has not healed. He looks
Speaker 1: like fucking Harvey Dent. So Shavanni asks, how's the eye doing? Now?
Speaker 1: If I were Hook, I would say, Tony, I have
Speaker 1: a fucking bandage over my eye. How do you think
Speaker 1: my eye is doing? He was a little more respectful.
Speaker 1: He said, Tony, I can't see out of this eye.
Speaker 1: But he says that he can see just fine out
Speaker 1: of the other one. He said he wants to fight
Speaker 1: Jericho for his FTW title right here, right now. That
Speaker 1: brought out the learning Tree, Chris Jericho, Big Bill, Ryan Keith.
Speaker 1: They make their way out onto the ramp. Jericho calls
Speaker 1: him a stupid son of a bitch. He acted like
Speaker 1: he was gonna give Hook what he wanted. You want
Speaker 1: your match, right, He's getting ready, like he's gonna take
Speaker 1: his jacket off. He's gonna put the title on the line.
Speaker 1: He says, No, not worth my time tonight. It will though,
Speaker 1: be worth my time at Wembley Stadium, he said, But
Speaker 1: there are a few caveats. You are going to get
Speaker 1: this match. He said that Hook will get his match,
Speaker 1: but this is going to be his last shot at
Speaker 1: the FTW Championship. If he does not win at Wembley Stadium,
Speaker 1: that's it. He does not get another crack at the title.
Speaker 1: And when he loses, Hook is going to walk away
Speaker 1: from the Jericho Vortex forever. Now, you and I both
Speaker 1: know no one ever truly escapes the Jericho vortags. We
Speaker 1: haven't been able to escape it for the last five years.
Speaker 1: It's like a fucking magnet right, you try to get away,
Speaker 1: but just the magnetic pull, it's too much. It's too
Speaker 1: much to overcome. The other caveat is that next week
Speaker 1: Hook is going to have to go through Big Bill.
Speaker 1: Bill chimed in. He said that he's gonna beat Hook down,
Speaker 1: He's gonna shove him up Taz's ass, and Taz had
Speaker 1: a nice little chuckle on commentary about that. So in
Speaker 1: the ring, Hook accept And by the way, this was
Speaker 1: probably the biggest promo of Hook's career. I don't think
Speaker 1: I've ever heard him speak this much in a single segment.
Speaker 1: He did well. He did well. You can hear that
Speaker 1: New York accent coming through. But he did well. But
Speaker 1: Hook accepted. He said that he looks forward to dumping
Speaker 1: Big Bitch on his head, Big Bitch on his head,
Speaker 1: that I like that, I like that, and tearing Jericho
Speaker 1: Limb from Limb. After Wembley, Jericho will never ever be
Speaker 1: the same again. Jericho interestingly did not say that Hook
Speaker 1: has to beat Bill in order to get his title shot,
Speaker 1: which is probably what he should have said. I don't
Speaker 1: know why he wouldn't have said that. That would make
Speaker 1: more sense. Now. It doesn't mean that it won't end
Speaker 1: up that way. But if not, what I'm hoping that
Speaker 1: doesn't signal is some kind of a cheap DQ, which
Speaker 1: is probably what we're gonna get. But by him not
Speaker 1: saying that, that's my fears that that's exactly what we're
Speaker 1: gonna end up with next week. But thankfully we see
Speaker 1: a light at the end of the tunnel. The belt
Speaker 1: is coming home, the meaningless belt that I don't possibly,
Speaker 1: you know, give a shit about, but the belt is
Speaker 1: coming home to Hook. It will be away from Chris Jerich,
Speaker 1: and hopefully this feud will finally be put to sleep
Speaker 1: like a sick, dying animal, because I am done with this.
Speaker 1: This needs to be done. At Wembley last week, last week,
Speaker 1: last year, Hook, you remember he wrestled Jack Perry and
Speaker 1: then all hell broke loose. But Hook had his moment.
Speaker 1: Then Hook will have another moment for himself here at Wembley,
Speaker 1: which will give him one moment more than Pack or Bastard.
Speaker 1: Then we had the Young Bucks against the acclaimed to
Speaker 1: the AAW World Tag Team Championship. This was the Bucks'
Speaker 1: first title defense and the first AW World Tag Team
Speaker 1: title match since Dynasty. Do you know when Dynasty was,
Speaker 1: and don't tell me the nineteen eighties. You're smart ass. Yes,
Speaker 1: I know, I watched some episodes. Now, Dynasty was April
Speaker 1: twenty first. That's a long time ago. That's a long
Speaker 1: gap to not have your tag team titles defended. It
Speaker 1: is beyond ridiculous, especially with all the talent that they
Speaker 1: have on that roster, the teams they have, the talent
Speaker 1: they have to not have a single title defense in
Speaker 1: four months in a company that once boasted the best
Speaker 1: tag team division in the entire world, it is inexcusable.
Speaker 1: So I will say that right off the bat. I
Speaker 1: don't care what kind of deal the Young Bucks have.
Speaker 1: They may have dates and Tony kan doesn't want to
Speaker 1: go over dates to pay them more. I don't know
Speaker 1: how their contracts are structured. There's been that report going around.
Speaker 1: That's why we haven't seen the Bucks on TV as often,
Speaker 1: because they have a certain number of dates and if
Speaker 1: Tony Khan goes over those dates, he may have to
Speaker 1: pay them extra. I don't know if that's completely accurate
Speaker 1: or not. If it is, it's still bullshit, then don't
Speaker 1: have the belts on them. Can say that about any
Speaker 1: part time champion put the belts on somebody. They don't
Speaker 1: show up, they don't work, they don't defend the titles
Speaker 1: for months and months at a time. How do people
Speaker 1: find this exciting? I don't understand that. Like when I
Speaker 1: mentioned this about Logan Paul, I had people coming after
Speaker 1: me like I'm the problem. How do people find this exciting?
Speaker 1: Let's put a belt on somebody and let them sit
Speaker 1: at home for three or four months. Oh yeah, that's great,
Speaker 1: that's riveting. That's riveting television. Now. The other thing to
Speaker 1: keep in mind here is that the acclaimed also earned
Speaker 1: this shot two months ago. So they've been sitting on
Speaker 1: this match, waiting and waiting and waiting, and they finally
Speaker 1: got their match here tonight Castor and Bowens. They attacked
Speaker 1: the Bucks on stage before the match officially began, as
Speaker 1: Bowen's dove off the stage onto both men. As the
Speaker 1: match spilled into the ring, the Bucks gained the advantage
Speaker 1: and the bell officially sounded, so we were underway. Billy Gunn,
Speaker 1: after all this, walked to the ring to a big ovation.
Speaker 1: Matt Jackson escaped the scissor, met timbers and rolled to
Speaker 1: the floor, but he found himself trapped with Castor on
Speaker 1: one side and Billy gun on the other, so he
Speaker 1: had no place to go. Hey, shout out to the
Speaker 1: Toronto kid. He says, solo, what up, baby, What up
Speaker 1: Toronto kid? How's the weather up there? I hope you're
Speaker 1: doing better than I am right now, so you can't tell,
Speaker 1: but I'm in some pain right now. I had my
Speaker 1: first root canal yesterday, which I would still I would
Speaker 1: still subject myself to that again rather than sit and
Speaker 1: watch a whole series of learning tree segments. But uh yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm throbbing over here, so hopefully you're having a
Speaker 1: better day than I am. So he's trapped on the outside,
Speaker 1: as I said. Between Billy Gunn and Max Caster, Nicholas
Speaker 1: took out Castor with a kick as Billy chased him
Speaker 1: around ringside with a chair. Referee Rick Knox, though, caught
Speaker 1: him in the act and he ejected Billy gun from ringside,
Speaker 1: and the people were not happy about that. So after
Speaker 1: a second commercial break, we had two of them here.
Speaker 1: Castor made a hot tag. He ran wild all four men.
Speaker 1: They dodged double clothes lines before everybody collided. We got
Speaker 1: the reset with everybody down. Cast missed a corner splash,
Speaker 1: which allowed Nicholas to try a swanton. Castor, though got
Speaker 1: the knees up. As Castor reached for Bowen's, Matthew was
Speaker 1: there to power bomb him onto the ramp. Castor kept
Speaker 1: reaching for the tag despite seeing his partner just get
Speaker 1: taken out as the Bucks went for the TK driver.
Speaker 1: Rick Knox though got bumped and Rick Knox was down
Speaker 1: long enough for Matthew to hit a low kick. So
Speaker 1: matt threw one of the tag team title belts into
Speaker 1: the ring, and now here comes FTR. We got FTR Bald,
Speaker 1: we got FTR hair. They come down to the ring.
Speaker 1: Bald gets into the ring and he takes the belt
Speaker 1: away and Matthew spits in his face. You don't spit
Speaker 1: in a man's face, so he double legs Matthew down
Speaker 1: to the mat and Rick Knock sees this, and Rick
Speaker 1: Knox calls for the disqualification to this tag team Championship match,
Speaker 1: which of course gives the win to the Young Bucks
Speaker 1: and the Young Bucks retain their titles. Billy Gunn comes
Speaker 1: down to the ring. We've got security with him be
Speaker 1: acclaimed in FTR. They had to be separated. They they've
Speaker 1: been beefing now for weeks, mostly on Collision. Renee was backstage.
Speaker 1: They cut to her immediately and she's watching all this
Speaker 1: play out on a screen standing next to Christopher Daniels,
Speaker 1: who is the surrogate for Tony Kahan, who we know
Speaker 1: is sitting just feet away from where they are. So
Speaker 1: instead of just going over to Tony Kahn and asking
Speaker 1: him what do you think about this? What are you
Speaker 1: going to do about this? I guess he has delegated
Speaker 1: that responsibility now to Christopher Daniels. So Daniel says that
Speaker 1: it's a complicated picture right now, the whole tag team
Speaker 1: title picture, but he has a simple solution. I thought
Speaker 1: he was just gonna go ahead and make a three
Speaker 1: way match, but instead what they're going to do is
Speaker 1: on Collision this Saturday, they're gonna have a match and
Speaker 1: it is going to be the acclaimed taking on FTR.
Speaker 1: The winners of that match will get a shot at
Speaker 1: the Young Bucks and the aw Tag team titles at
Speaker 1: all in so let's evaluate where we are now after
Speaker 1: waiting four months. What we got here was a very
Speaker 1: average match with a fuck finish to lead to yet
Speaker 1: another Number one Contenders match. Hardly feels worth it a match,
Speaker 1: by the way, a match that will likely end on Saturday,
Speaker 1: if I had a wager a bet, A match that
Speaker 1: will end probably with some other ure non finish, disputed finish.
Speaker 1: The Bucks maybe get involved, although maybe not right because
Speaker 1: you only got so many dates on them. But I'm
Speaker 1: not so sure we're gonna get a clean winner on Saturday.
Speaker 1: And where we go from there likely would be a
Speaker 1: three way match with FTR and the Young Bucks and
Speaker 1: the Acclaimed all three teams. Could be a straight match,
Speaker 1: could turn it into a ladder match. We've had more
Speaker 1: than our fill of ladder matches I think between WWE
Speaker 1: and AW over the last three months. But I could
Speaker 1: see that potentially happening. But that's where I see this going.
Speaker 1: If not and we get a clean finish, you know, look,
Speaker 1: I am at the point now where like I remember
Speaker 1: those first two three maybe matches that we got between
Speaker 1: FTR and the Young Bucks. The first one was in
Speaker 1: front of of no real fans. The second one I
Speaker 1: think was the one on Dynamite a few years ago.
Speaker 1: That was an outstanding match, and they also had a
Speaker 1: very good match at Wembley last year. I do not
Speaker 1: have any real interest at this point in seeing the
Speaker 1: Bucks in FTR again at Wembley Stadium. They were at
Speaker 1: Wembley against each other last year. We saw it, then
Speaker 1: we saw them again at Dynasty in April. Now we're
Speaker 1: probably gonna get it again. If we get it just
Speaker 1: those two teams, I don't have any interest in seeing it. Yes,
Speaker 1: I know we're gonna get a very good tag team match,
Speaker 1: but I'm over it. You can get too much of
Speaker 1: a good thing. At some point you get tired of
Speaker 1: it and you want them to just move on to
Speaker 1: somebody else and something else. So I would rather be
Speaker 1: a three way match because at least if you throw
Speaker 1: in the Acclaimed, it's something different, you'll have that extra
Speaker 1: team in there. But I just can't bring myself to
Speaker 1: be excited about having get another match between the Young
Speaker 1: Bucks and FTR. You would think they have no other
Speaker 1: teams in this company. So I just don't. I just
Speaker 1: don't care about any of this. I really don't. I
Speaker 1: really don't, And this all it just feels very uninspired
Speaker 1: right now. What we're seeing here in this tag team scene. Uninspired,
Speaker 1: I think is a very good word for the tag
Speaker 1: team scene in this company is just ice cold and
Speaker 1: it didn't have to be this way, and it never
Speaker 1: used to be that way. So for me to sit
Speaker 1: here and feel this way about a division that at
Speaker 1: one point, like I said, I'll put that tag team
Speaker 1: division in AW in twenty nineteen and twenty twenty up
Speaker 1: against any other tag team division of wrestling at that time,
Speaker 1: or frankly even any tag team division of wrestling today.
Speaker 1: But that's not what we have now. Whatever we have
Speaker 1: three four years ago, that ain't this, and that's a
Speaker 1: damn shame because that used to be something that really
Speaker 1: helped them stand out and stand apart from WWE and
Speaker 1: other promotions. And now I actually think it's more of
Speaker 1: an achilles heel for them than anything else. So in
Speaker 1: a night of video packages, we were not done yet,
Speaker 1: because they saved the best for last. We had a
Speaker 1: Brian Danielson video package set to Green Day's Good Riddance,
Speaker 1: Time of Your Life, which I will forever associate with
Speaker 1: the Seinfeld finale. It included footage from Brian's time not
Speaker 1: only in AW of course, but also a ring of
Speaker 1: honor because Tony con owns the library footage from New
Speaker 1: Japan Pro Wrestling, some PWG footage in there as well.
Speaker 1: All the WWA you knew you weren't going to get
Speaker 1: ww footage. It would be nice if you would have
Speaker 1: tried to reach out, which I'm sure he did not.
Speaker 1: There are times in the past where I thought maybe
Speaker 1: he reached out and got rejected, and then we find
Speaker 1: out after he never even reached out. So I just
Speaker 1: think the bad blood there is such that even picking
Speaker 1: up the phone or through an intermediary saying hey, look,
Speaker 1: you know we're doing this match and Brian's gonna be
Speaker 1: retiring whether he is or not. And you know, Brian
Speaker 1: was such a big part of your company for so long,
Speaker 1: very well respected. We'd love to have access to some
Speaker 1: footage for video package we're putting together. I just wish
Speaker 1: they at least had a relationship that would allow them
Speaker 1: to do that right, not necessarily talent trade, but for
Speaker 1: all the talk. When Tony Khan gets asked about the
Speaker 1: possibility of one day working with WWE, and he gives
Speaker 1: that answer of hey, yeah, maybe I'd love to, No,
Speaker 1: he wouldn't because he hates them. He hates them for
Speaker 1: a multitude of different reasons. He hates them for contract hampering,
Speaker 1: he hates them for fucking with his product and their
Speaker 1: PR team for fucking with his media rights deal. He
Speaker 1: fucking hates them and it's too bad. We couldn't get
Speaker 1: a fuller video package, but I think with the limited
Speaker 1: footage that they had access to, they did an excellent
Speaker 1: job with it. I love this. It ended with Brian's
Speaker 1: quote where he said, if you fight for your dreams,
Speaker 1: your dreams will fight for you. They showed Danielson ringside
Speaker 1: after this. He was in the front row for the
Speaker 1: main event, which was Swerve Strickland one on one with
Speaker 1: Wheeler dah non title. Danielsen was there at the request
Speaker 1: of Swerve because he wanted him to have a front
Speaker 1: row seat to see what he was going to do
Speaker 1: to his little buddy. Strickland wasted no time. He sent
Speaker 1: you to to the outside, right in front of Danielson.
Speaker 1: He slammed you into the ring steps. He slammed him
Speaker 1: into the barricade, saying this is just an appetizer. I'm
Speaker 1: going to retire you, as he looked over at Brian
Speaker 1: back in the ring, you'd have tried fighting back. Strickland, though,
Speaker 1: hit the upper cut out of the corner and again
Speaker 1: mocked Danielson who was basically in the front road cheer
Speaker 1: leading for Wheeler. You to try to, you know, root
Speaker 1: him on. You'da went up for a dive, Strickland side
Speaker 1: stepped him, you'da crashed and burned. Strickland applied the labell lock.
Speaker 1: You'd rolled out into an ankle lock. Strickland tried a
Speaker 1: rolling flatliner. You to those side steps, hit a snap.
Speaker 1: German tried for cattle mutilation, but Strickland escaped and both
Speaker 1: men slapped the hell out of each other, and Swerve
Speaker 1: just absorbed the blows with a smile on his face.
Speaker 1: Not surprising for a guy. If you think back to
Speaker 1: the Texas Deathmatch last year, he was stapled multiple times.
Speaker 1: I think he may have actually started stapling himself with
Speaker 1: the staple gun and just laughed it off, which totally
Speaker 1: killed the spot. But okay, I mean, it only makes
Speaker 1: it harder for people to buy into this shit when
Speaker 1: they do hardcore stuff. You know, the staple gun is
Speaker 1: supposed to be this devastating thing. He is supposed to
Speaker 1: kill the gimmick by you know, taking staples to your
Speaker 1: body and smiling and laughing about it. But if that
Speaker 1: doesn't bother him, if that doesn't face him. I don't
Speaker 1: think some slaps from Wheeler DA are going to do
Speaker 1: much the Swerve strict. We got three house call kicks
Speaker 1: that connected flush Strickland rained down Stompson punches until Bryce
Speaker 1: Remsburg called to stop to the match right around the
Speaker 1: ten minute mark. Honestly, that was at least five minutes
Speaker 1: longer than they should have gone. Swerve is the champion
Speaker 1: right now, He's going into this big main event, Youda.
Speaker 1: I mean, look the love of God, why does Swerve
Speaker 1: need to go ten minutes with this guy? You know
Speaker 1: what you did here in ten minutes. You could have
Speaker 1: done this in three or four so it did not
Speaker 1: need to be as competitive as it was. Strickland, though,
Speaker 1: would not stop, so Danielson jumped the barricade. He hit
Speaker 1: the ring As the champion bailed. Strickland took the microphone
Speaker 1: as he was walking up the ramp and leaving. He
Speaker 1: was looking behind him and speaking and said that he
Speaker 1: had a message for Brian. He said that that's just
Speaker 1: an example of what he is going to do to
Speaker 1: him in two weeks. And he asked, Brian, you're going
Speaker 1: to be bringing the family with you. He said, right
Speaker 1: where you were sitting tonight where he was standing for
Speaker 1: most of the match. The same thing is going to
Speaker 1: happen for your daughter as she watches her dad wrestle
Speaker 1: his last match. So as Danielsen had his back turn
Speaker 1: and he was kneeling down tending to Wheeler Yuda, Swerve
Speaker 1: sprinted back down to the ring. He had a house
Speaker 1: call kick to Danielson, and then he stood over his
Speaker 1: body doing the yes chance with the fingers up in
Speaker 1: the air as Prince Nana danced around. Not so much
Speaker 1: a heel turn, although if you watch it it would
Speaker 1: kind of come off that way. Not so much a
Speaker 1: heel turn as much as the champion sending a very
Speaker 1: direct message to his challenger in the main event of
Speaker 1: the upcoming pay per view, Swerve does not play around.
Speaker 1: He will do whatever it takes, and we saw this
Speaker 1: even before he was champion. We saw this in the
Speaker 1: feud with Hangman. This is why Hangman lost his mind.
Speaker 1: Swerve takes it way too far, but he will do
Speaker 1: what needs to be done to get the In this case,
Speaker 1: he will do what needs to be done to hold
Speaker 1: onto his title, to go down as the man who
Speaker 1: retired Brian dangleson so It may not be a heel turn,
Speaker 1: but they are clearly doing everything in their power to
Speaker 1: set up for either Brian getting his big celebratory moment
Speaker 1: or Brian, you know, being set up basically for heartbreak
Speaker 1: and having a legitimate retirement at all in I cannot
Speaker 1: see him being done for good. I just can't. I
Speaker 1: think that everything that we have been seeing and hearing
Speaker 1: from him, he's been doing a lot of interviews and
Speaker 1: he has talked about how I'm probably going to need
Speaker 1: next surgery before this year is over. I call bullshit
Speaker 1: on that. I call bullshit. I think all of this
Speaker 1: is designed to play off of the neck injuries that
Speaker 1: go back at least as far as Dynasty, when Will
Speaker 1: Osprey dropped him on his head in the Tiger Drive,
Speaker 1: a move that Osprey has not done since he refuses
Speaker 1: to and I think we'll get it at Wembley and
Speaker 1: when he hits it on MJF the place will explode.
Speaker 1: But ever since then, it's been all about his neck.
Speaker 1: It's been all about his health. And you know, Ken Brian,
Speaker 1: you know, can he make it through the owen? Can
Speaker 1: his body hold out on him? This is the story,
Speaker 1: and it's all to portray him as the ultimate underdog
Speaker 1: going into this main event, you know, the beaten down,
Speaker 1: broken veteran who is being held together by glue and
Speaker 1: needs surgery. But he's going to try to win that
Speaker 1: one championship that he's never won before. And Tony Kaann,
Speaker 1: I think, is going to probably want to give him
Speaker 1: his big moment, you know, at the end of the show.
Speaker 1: But again, I think all of this is just not
Speaker 1: that Brian isn't beat up, but I just think it's
Speaker 1: all bs and it's all to build to what will
Speaker 1: probably be his defining moment at the end of that
Speaker 1: Wembley show. On the whole, I enjoyed the show more
Speaker 1: than I did last week, but it is still lacking
Speaker 1: some thing. It doesn't feel like their biggest show of
Speaker 1: the year is twelve days away or eleven days or
Speaker 1: however many days aga ten days. I think it's ten
Speaker 1: days away. Doesn't feel like next week is the final
Speaker 1: Dynamite before all in. I'm expecting a better show. I'm
Speaker 1: expecting a hot crowd. I'm expecting a great match. I'm
Speaker 1: looking forward to Okada and Claudia for the Continental title.
Speaker 1: We'll see if what I mentioned actually ends up coming
Speaker 1: true if John Moxley comes back and they set something
Speaker 1: up for Wembley, because I just can't imagine Okada is
Speaker 1: left off that show. But the tag team title situation,
Speaker 1: it's a mess right now, the women's situation. Going into Wembley.
Speaker 1: We've got two big matches. One has lost a lot
Speaker 1: of steam over the last few weeks. The suspension didn't help.
Speaker 1: The other one is the match I am looking forward
Speaker 1: to the most. It really is, in many ways, the
Speaker 1: tale of two matches. When you compare Britain Mercedes to
Speaker 1: Mariah and Tony, Brittain Mercedes is the more marquee of
Speaker 1: the two matches. You have britt Baker, the face of
Speaker 1: the aw women's division now for the last five years,
Speaker 1: and Mercedes, who came in with a lot of fanfare
Speaker 1: and a lot of success coming from that other place,
Speaker 1: and she was out for a long time and this
Speaker 1: was her big return, and Tony Kahan signed her and
Speaker 1: she had this big debut in Boston, and now these
Speaker 1: two are meeting for the very first time. It should
Speaker 1: feel like a bigger deal. And it's the other match
Speaker 1: that I'm way more excited for. I'm really looking forward
Speaker 1: to and hopefully the return of Jamie Hayter. But the
Speaker 1: key matches on this show, they're building them nicely, I
Speaker 1: would say, on the whole, and we'll see. You know,
Speaker 1: Tony Khan is going to add a bunch of matches
Speaker 1: to this card next week. I shudder to think how
Speaker 1: many more matches he's gonna throw on there, but I
Speaker 1: know it's coming. You know, he's going to try to
Speaker 1: squeeze as many people in there as he can. I
Speaker 1: just hope you don't end up with a five hour
Speaker 1: show out of it. Let's take a look at the
Speaker 1: Twitter poll what did you think of Dynamite? Here for
Speaker 1: August fourteenth, forty percent thumbs up, twenty seven point six
Speaker 1: percent thumbs in the middle, and thirty two percent thumbs
Speaker 1: down for Dynamite. That is with over twelve hundred votes
Speaker 1: in so far. So at solo Monster is my handle,
Speaker 1: you guys know that you know the drill. By the way,
Speaker 1: you should go go over to my ex anyway, my
Speaker 1: ex profile, because I tweeted out a video that Sammy's
Speaker 1: ain't actually put out earlier this afternoon, and this is
Speaker 1: one of the craziest things that I've ever seen. Now,
Speaker 1: if you saw raw on Monday Night. There was a
Speaker 1: moment in that main event with bron Breaker and Sammy's
Speaker 1: Ain where they were outside the ring and bron got
Speaker 1: him up on his shoulder and he ran towards the
Speaker 1: timekeeper's barricade and he lawn darted. He heeded this man
Speaker 1: over the barricade into the other barricade, and we got
Speaker 1: this first person view, like right over bronze shoulder. The
Speaker 1: camera just follows a great camera angle. Sammy posted the
Speaker 1: same video, but when they hit the barricade, it's a
Speaker 1: side shot and somehow, somehow it looks even worse from
Speaker 1: that angle. How this man didn't fucking die I will
Speaker 1: never know. I mean, you've got to look at the
Speaker 1: reactions of everybody in the background, including some of the
Speaker 1: staff that are right there. This is one woman, I
Speaker 1: don't know what her position is. Her mouth is just
Speaker 1: like her jaw dropped. Everybody in the first five rows
Speaker 1: their mouths just dropped. They couldn't believe what they saw.
Speaker 1: So I put that video up and then it just
Speaker 1: kind of just people ran wild with it. Last I checked,
Speaker 1: it had like sixty five hundred likes. Since it was
Speaker 1: still going, it was spreading around like wildfire, which if
Speaker 1: you didn't see it, you need to take a look
Speaker 1: at that clip. He is very lucky that he made
Speaker 1: it out of that spot. Okay, because that looked very dangerous.
Speaker 1: That looked very scary. Bron Breaker is a scary cat.
Speaker 1: What happened, man, Yeah, he got he got yeaded. He
Speaker 1: got yeaded over the barricade into the shadow realm. That's
Speaker 1: exactly what happened, oh man, bron Breaker. All right, let's
Speaker 1: take a look at your super chats. Thank you for
Speaker 1: everybody who has dropped the doughnut so far or gifted
Speaker 1: membership like justin earlier. I do appreciate it very very much,
Speaker 1: so thank you. Let me go through these here, and
Speaker 1: we're gonna start out with Ace of Mastha, who has
Speaker 1: a message here saying, poor Adam Cole. Adam Cole got
Speaker 1: beat up by Camille Tonight. Jerome Eugenio, do you think
Speaker 1: this crazy and violent Hangman character will eventually turn Babyface? Brother?
Speaker 1: Everybody eventually turns heel or Babyface. So yes, eventually we
Speaker 1: will give Babyface Hangman back. Not for a while, man,
Speaker 1: not until this issue would swerve is over. When this
Speaker 1: issue would swerve is over? I think he goes back
Speaker 1: to being a babyan dev to dust. Johnny Gargano looks
Speaker 1: like Tom Cruise. I don't think Tom Cruise is that short.
Speaker 1: Ozen Glorious another decent show. Really missing mocks Omega, j White,
Speaker 1: Jamie Hayter and not Disco Garcia. Thank god Mina has
Speaker 1: returned to save us. Yeah, it's just it's too bad
Speaker 1: we didn't get Kenny back in time to do that
Speaker 1: match with Okada Wembley. I mean, that would have been
Speaker 1: the perfect place for it. But Juliet says, Samantha Irvin
Speaker 1: broke the internet again. Oh my gosh, you posts another photo.
Speaker 1: I must have missed it. I didn't see it. Savoy
Speaker 1: food high plus Mina equals foe. I'm sorry. Fuck I
Speaker 1: did it again. I called it foe. It's fuck. Forget
Speaker 1: about it, forget about it, about a bing a bad
Speaker 1: a boom, That's how it goes. Forget about it, Oz
Speaker 1: and Glorious, Tony Kahm, please sign Samantha Irvin for a billion?
Speaker 1: What is this, Samantha Irvins, are you gonna make me go?
Speaker 1: Look again? This is the second time that I have
Speaker 1: been forced on a live stream to go take a
Speaker 1: look at what this Samantha Irvin stuff it's all about.
Speaker 1: But she asked for her release or something. What are
Speaker 1: you talking about, you, Samantha Irving. I really don't. I don't.
Speaker 1: And the first thing I see I searched for Samantha Irvin,
Speaker 1: and the first thing that I see is a picture
Speaker 1: of aj Styles doing the fake retirement, nearly in tears
Speaker 1: with his arms raised like this. I'm searching here. I
Speaker 1: don't know what I'm supposed to be looking for. You
Speaker 1: guys are out of control. Uh food Hive says, oops,
Speaker 1: savoys my account too. I would still fuh Mina. I
Speaker 1: was gonna say, you're you were logged into the wrong
Speaker 1: account there, weren't you? That was your burner. Tom Cruise
Speaker 1: is five to six, well, then Johnny must be five three.
Speaker 1: Jeremy Rose My MJF needs to retain at Wembley because
Speaker 1: this American heel gimmick is money. Make Osprey work all
Speaker 1: year to get a rematch and beat MJF next year
Speaker 1: at Wembley, giving this title some meaning. So you would
Speaker 1: do MJF and pack then in Chicago. I don't know
Speaker 1: if I see that as the match though. By the way,
Speaker 1: if MJF loses, will Osprey said he was going to
Speaker 1: restore the international title. That doesn't mean that MJF can't
Speaker 1: walk around with his American championship. He could still be
Speaker 1: the American Champion, nicol Let Osprey be the Not that
Speaker 1: I'm advocating for more fucking titles in this company, but
Speaker 1: just because he loses does not necessarily mean that the
Speaker 1: American title. Gimmick is going to go away. Oz and
Speaker 1: Glorious is pack losing out on Wembley thanks to Conan
Speaker 1: and the Fed. What Samuel Hayworth with twelve gold, silver
Speaker 1: and bronze Take a bronco buster from a naked wade Killer,
Speaker 1: a stink face from a naked Sean Ross Sap or
Speaker 1: take the Nasty Boys pit stop from Meltzer and Alvarez,
Speaker 1: also naked. Samuel, I think you have serious issues that
Speaker 1: need to be dealt with. I hope. I think that
Speaker 1: twelve dollars would have gone better towards a therapist. I
Speaker 1: don't know why you would put these images in people's heads.
Speaker 1: I would not give the gold, silver or bronze to
Speaker 1: any of these people. In fact, I would run far
Speaker 1: far away from these people. So the answer is they
Speaker 1: get nothing from me. I choose none of them. Tuxedo
Speaker 1: t Servo, thank you for the twelve bucks, Jarrett Rodriguez.
Speaker 1: Every time I see Big Bill come out with the
Speaker 1: Learning Tree, I get pissed off at Enzo for screwing
Speaker 1: up all those years ago. Definitely would prefer the Enzo
Speaker 1: and cast act over whatever the hell this is. Aj
Speaker 1: files Hi Solo, I made a website. Can I email
Speaker 1: you the link? Sure? Demeter Bullian? Oh boy, oh no,
Speaker 1: Demeter Bullian, CM the junkie with dumb stupid ears. You
Speaker 1: made me read all that for sixty five cents. You
Speaker 1: know I only get seventy percent of that. Take take
Speaker 1: thirty percent off of that sixty five cents. Thank you, Demitia. Demeter,
Speaker 1: I can't even speak. Be calm, see clearly be all
Speaker 1: in card. Better not be twenty matches long. It won't
Speaker 1: be twenty matches long. It will only be fIF Jarrett Rodriguez,
Speaker 1: which overdone? Pairing of tag team puts on the better
Speaker 1: matches in your opinion, the usso's in the New Day
Speaker 1: or FTR and the Young Bucks. They both have had
Speaker 1: matches that I've enjoyed, and they both got to a
Speaker 1: point where I was just tired of seeing it. I
Speaker 1: would say FTR and the Young Bucks, though if I
Speaker 1: had to rank one over the other in terms of
Speaker 1: quality of the matches, it's FTR and the Young Bucks.
Speaker 1: They get my vote, and ed Swaggle I personally would
Speaker 1: not mind a long card for all in since it
Speaker 1: is in the middle of the day for us anyway,
Speaker 1: the ones that go into tomorrow are what I can't do.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether it's at night
Speaker 1: or in the middle of the day. I don't want
Speaker 1: to sit here from one o'clock until six o'clock watching
Speaker 1: wrestling and then turn around at six point thirty and
Speaker 1: go live for another two and a half hours. So
Speaker 1: again I'm speaking for myself on this. I feel like
Speaker 1: even if I wasn't reviewing the show immediately after, if
Speaker 1: I wasn't a content creator, I still don't want to
Speaker 1: sit here for five or six hours watching wrestling. There
Speaker 1: is a point where it just becomes too much. But
Speaker 1: as a content creator, I really hate it because it's
Speaker 1: going to start one o'clock Eastern time here on the
Speaker 1: East Coast, that show's not ending before five, and it's
Speaker 1: very likely going to go closer to maybe six, and
Speaker 1: so then we go right into the live stream. So
Speaker 1: I'm basically blocked off now from one o'clock, not counting
Speaker 1: the pre show, which I think would be like twelve
Speaker 1: blocked off from one o'clock to pretty much I would
Speaker 1: say probably eight thirty at night. So I mean dinner
Speaker 1: is fucked right, there's no dinner for me. So yeah,
Speaker 1: you can understand why I would be a little uh
Speaker 1: irritated by that Kel with the four ninety nine, I
Speaker 1: would frost Samantha's cakes better than Martha Stewart. Kel. That
Speaker 1: was a little too much information for me. I don't
Speaker 1: necessarily blame you, but uh, thank you for sharing that.
Speaker 1: Thank you for sharing that. It reminds me maybe I
Speaker 1: think for breakfast in the morning, I'm gonna have frosted flakes.
Speaker 1: Thank you for the super chats, even the weird ones.
Speaker 1: But you can get it all done in one day again, Now,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be able to get everything done
Speaker 1: in one day. I gotta do the sound off on
Speaker 1: Saturday that week. You know, the SoundOff drops on Sundays.
Speaker 1: It's recorded on Sundays, it drops on Sundays. So I
Speaker 1: already know that all in is fucking that weekend up,
Speaker 1: So I'm going to try to get the podcast done
Speaker 1: a day early. I hate being off schedule like that.
Speaker 1: It just throws me. It just throws me for a loop.
Speaker 1: But we'll get it done. We'll get it done. That's
Speaker 1: a me problem, that's not a U problem. You don't
Speaker 1: have to worry about it. That's for me to worry about.
Speaker 1: We are currently sitting at three hundred and seventy likes,
Speaker 1: which means no be the booker tonight. So we will
Speaker 1: try again on Friday. Boy, it's been a while since
Speaker 1: we missed the goal. This is what I mean. You
Speaker 1: can just feel the energy is off for AW right now.
Speaker 1: We don't have these issues on any of the other screens,
Speaker 1: but it's become more prevalent on the AW ones and
Speaker 1: so I can feel it even on my end that
Speaker 1: the energy for the AW product is not what it
Speaker 1: was even a few months ago. Like it's just off.
Speaker 1: Something is missing. The Winston sled. What is Daniel Bryan
Speaker 1: Danielson's wrestling legacy? What what is his wrestling legacy? I mean,
Speaker 1: he will go down as one of the all time
Speaker 1: greats as far as wrestling technicians. He is a great
Speaker 1: professional wrestler, and I think that he picked up the
Speaker 1: character work too in WWE, so it's not even just
Speaker 1: that his ring work is great. I do think that
Speaker 1: will be his legacy though, that you could put him
Speaker 1: in the ring with almost anybody and he will be
Speaker 1: able to pull a great match out of them, and
Speaker 1: he is able to get the crowd invested in a
Speaker 1: way that few people are able to do. He got
Speaker 1: over in a way that he was never supposed to
Speaker 1: get over in WWI. He got over in spite of
Speaker 1: the way they booked him, and that's special. That takes
Speaker 1: a special talent to make that connection with the crowd.
Speaker 1: But he will go down for his wrestling skills and
Speaker 1: his great matches. Even even Uncle Dave over there named
Speaker 1: an award after him in The Observer, right, So I
Speaker 1: mean that, really, I think, more than anything is what
Speaker 1: he'll be known for. Justin says, that's the Wall Brother
Speaker 1: lives rent Free. One of the all time great wrestling moments.
Speaker 1: How he spotted him from I don't even know, one
Speaker 1: hundred yards away, whatever it was, it's just one of
Speaker 1: those ridiculous wrestling moments that just makes me laugh and
Speaker 1: puts a smile on my face. Oz Glorias says Conan
Speaker 1: and the FED regarding death Triangle. Yeah, but what does
Speaker 1: that have to do with Garcia? You mentioned Daniel Garcia,
Speaker 1: Todd Warner. Will I see the new Crow movie? I
Speaker 1: didn't see the last Crow movie, So now I am
Speaker 1: going to see the new Beetlejuice movie when it comes
Speaker 1: out September sixth. I may not see it on the
Speaker 1: six Maybe I'll see it that Sunday, but I will
Speaker 1: be seeing the Beatle Juice movie, not the Crow movie.
Speaker 1: There's also a new alien movie coming out. I haven't
Speaker 1: seen the last few. I'm on the fence with that one, Romulus.
Speaker 1: I think it's called, like I know, Prometheus, I didn't see.
Speaker 1: You can let me know if I should. Justin g
Speaker 1: Early like goal midstream buzzer buzzer beater, I don't know,
Speaker 1: doesn't look like it, Justin and Chris Manson, Mariah needs
Speaker 1: to give Mina a butt whoopin next week. I think so.
Speaker 1: I don't think they flew Mina all the way in
Speaker 1: from Japan just to do one little backstage segment with
Speaker 1: Renee so to put more heat on Mariah. I do
Speaker 1: think that they're probably setting some thing up with her
Speaker 1: and Mina for next week's show. I think that would
Speaker 1: be the way to go. I do, I do justin
Speaker 1: getting one in here right here at the end, Gold, Silver, Bronze, Axe,
Speaker 1: Smash and Crush. I was always more of a smash
Speaker 1: guy than he now, more of a smash guy than
Speaker 1: a an axe guy. So I gotta go in that order. Smash,
Speaker 1: then Ax and then crush. Demolition was the shit until
Speaker 1: they turned into a trio. That was the beginning of
Speaker 1: the end. They weren't the same after that. Then they
Speaker 1: changed their music then, which was fantastic, and then they
Speaker 1: changed it to some generic garbage when they went heel
Speaker 1: and then LD came in, and then Vince McMahon just
Speaker 1: basically discarded them and said, well, I got LD. I
Speaker 1: have no need for these guys now. It was embarrassing,
Speaker 1: embarrassing the way they discarded Demolition like that. The Juliette
Speaker 1: best heel turn of all time. I am partial to
Speaker 1: the Randy Savage heel turn on the main event when
Speaker 1: he turned on Hulk Hogan. That's one of my all
Speaker 1: time favorite angles. That would probably be at the top
Speaker 1: of my list in AW. I might go with Mariah
Speaker 1: May when she turned on Tony Storm. I think in
Speaker 1: terms of awe, that one's hard to top. But overall,
Speaker 1: I always go back to that megapower split angle. It
Speaker 1: was just so great. Devin fremenj my colleague in Fresno,
Speaker 1: was explaining to me the difference between fans and Marx.
Speaker 1: Is there a difference or is it all the same shit?
Speaker 1: All the same shit, all the same shit, all the
Speaker 1: wrestlers and all the idiot fans who throw that word
Speaker 1: around in a derogatory way. Oh what a mark? Oh
Speaker 1: what a mark? Sometimes you'll hear wrestlers. I think I've
Speaker 1: heard Conan say, like a mark podcast, Right, they're all marks.
Speaker 1: The ones who are throwing that word around are usually
Speaker 1: the biggest marks of all. So when you hear a
Speaker 1: fan on social media, oh what a mark? Right, you're
Speaker 1: a mark, they don't realize it, though in their head
Speaker 1: they don't. They don't see themselves as one. But guess
Speaker 1: what you are? We all are. There really is no difference.
Speaker 1: Tuxedo t servo. Look at those likes. Let's take a
Speaker 1: look here, because we weren't looking good before, and now
Speaker 1: we are sitting at four oh six, which is great.
Speaker 1: It shouldn't take that long though to get there. We
Speaker 1: shouldn't have to do it right there at the very end.
Speaker 1: It should be an automatic. Before the review is even over,
Speaker 1: we should be at at least four hundred every single
Speaker 1: street unregistered Hypercam two Gold, Silver and bronze Repoman, Blacktop
Speaker 1: Bully and mister Holan one uh Repo Man number one.
Speaker 1: Mister hole in one is the silver winner and the
Speaker 1: bronze goes to Blacktop Bully Repo Men easily the best
Speaker 1: of the three. What's mine is mine and what's yours
Speaker 1: is mine? To all right, we hit the goal. So
Speaker 1: let's be the booker. Ladies and gentlemen. It is now
Speaker 1: time to be the booker. It is a Wednesday night
Speaker 1: and it is time for us to go ahead and
Speaker 1: book some matches. So let us begin. These messages are
Speaker 1: going by so quickly. I can't even keep up with
Speaker 1: all of them. I should start raising the be the
Speaker 1: booker goals. You know what, I think You're right. I
Speaker 1: think I should. I think I should start raising them.
Speaker 1: But then we probably will end up not doing be
Speaker 1: the booker as often, which you know what, maybe that's
Speaker 1: not such a bad thing. Maybe we keep it special
Speaker 1: that way. Maybe the goal should be five hundred per street,
Speaker 1: but I don't know after tonight, I don't know if
Speaker 1: you guys have what it takes to even hit that goal.
Speaker 1: All right, here we go, tag Team be the Booker.
Speaker 1: Start out with maybe the most decorated tag team of
Speaker 1: all time. You see them here, draped in gold, The
Speaker 1: Deadly Boys, Bubbaret and Devon tag team titles across multiple promotions,
Speaker 1: and we have the Dudley Boys stepping into the ring
Speaker 1: with the American Males. The Dudley Boys and the American
Speaker 1: Males Marcus, Alexander Bagwell and Scottie Riggs. How are we
Speaker 1: feeling about this match? I am on the fence, I'm
Speaker 1: leaning towards one direction. But how are we feeling about this? Ah? Oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm genuinely conflicted right now, I really am.
Speaker 1: I'm genuinely conflicted. I told you I was leaning in
Speaker 1: one direction. Now you know the direction I was leaning,
Speaker 1: and you guys were of no help. I asked you
Speaker 1: for your suggestions and you were all like, oh, I
Speaker 1: don't know. That's a tough one. Yeah, no shit, That's
Speaker 1: why I asked you. So thanks for nothing. So we
Speaker 1: start with a buzzer. Let's see if we can improve
Speaker 1: from here. We begin with, well, this is an improvement.
Speaker 1: This is a nice improvement. Trish Stratus, always lovely, Trish Stratus,
Speaker 1: the Hall of Famer, Trish Stratus, the former Women's Champion,
Speaker 1: Tris Stratus. She can be booked on my show anytime.
Speaker 1: Trish one on one with Kyrie saying, we have improved
Speaker 1: boys of Heat now Mays. Mays is getting a lot
Speaker 1: of heat in the chat for making that suggestion. But
Speaker 1: I think I like that suggestion, so you can thank
Speaker 1: Mays for that. Maybe maybe we'll shoot for five hundred
Speaker 1: on the like Skull on Friday Night made event time.
Speaker 1: Men's be the booker. We need to break the tie.
Speaker 1: Can we break the tie and get ourselves a bell?
Speaker 1: We have Bob Backland w WF Champion, Bob Backland Crazy Bob. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel bad now saying that because for those who
Speaker 1: don't know Bob, and it's not a new diagnosis. Apparently
Speaker 1: he's been suffering now for a few years from this,
Speaker 1: But for those who don't know, Bob Backland is dealing
Speaker 1: with dementia. He lived in Connecticut for years and years
Speaker 1: and years and I forgot what part of Connecticut it was.
Speaker 1: Everybody around town knew him. I think he owned an
Speaker 1: oil company at one point. Anyway, apparently he had to
Speaker 1: move out of Connecticut some time ago. He's living in
Speaker 1: Florida with his sister, who's looking after him. But now
Speaker 1: when I say crazy Bob, it's like it just kind
Speaker 1: of reminds me of the fact that he's got demension now,
Speaker 1: and I feel bad. But with the Crazy Bob character, man,
Speaker 1: when he snapped in ninety four, he did some tremendous
Speaker 1: work with that character. I could already tell, though, I'm
Speaker 1: on the fence about how this is. How this is
Speaker 1: going to end really depends on who we land on here.
Speaker 1: Bob Backland one on one with the demon Finn Balor.
Speaker 1: I you know, I'm very curious how that match would
Speaker 1: have played out. On one side of the ring, you
Speaker 1: have Finn Balor chiseled right, he's got the six pack abs,
Speaker 1: he's got that paint on, that wild wacky paint all
Speaker 1: over his body. On the other side of the ring,
Speaker 1: you have, yeah, bow tie Bob. You have bow tie
Speaker 1: Bob Backland. That is a true clash of styles, is
Speaker 1: what that is? Yeah, a styles clash, to say the least. Yeah,
Speaker 1: said Bob would be screaming whoa, whoa, whoa. He always
Speaker 1: did that, right, whoa whoa. I would like to see
Speaker 1: that match. I don't know if it would be any good,
Speaker 1: but I would like to see that match. If I
Speaker 1: had the chance to book that match is the main
Speaker 1: event on my show, I would. I would do it.
Speaker 1: The Demon, that's right, the Demon against the guy who
Speaker 1: looks like he would knock on your door passing out
Speaker 1: literature to come to their local chapel meeting for some
Speaker 1: kind of weird religious cult. Anyway, ed Swaggle make the
Speaker 1: goal for twenty for iced smoke, iced mocha, a lot
Speaker 1: of weed? Maybe I would if he actually pops up again.
Speaker 1: We haven't heard from him in a while. I hope
Speaker 1: he's doing okay. And Patricia as well, if Patricia still
Speaker 1: happens to be around. We haven't heard from Patricia. I
Speaker 1: don't know that we ever will, but thank you, thank
Speaker 1: you for the suggestion. May I interest you, sir in
Speaker 1: a vacuum cleaner? Yeah, Bob, Bob looks like the kind
Speaker 1: of guy who would go around selling encyclopedias to people.
Speaker 1: That's what happened with my family. Remember my mom many
Speaker 1: years ago a set of Encyclopedia Britannicas from somebody who
Speaker 1: I don't if they came to the house or they
Speaker 1: cornered her at the mall or something, but all I
Speaker 1: know is we ended up with a whole volume of dictionaries,
Speaker 1: not dictionaries, encyclop encyclopedias. Bob Backlan probably has a whole
Speaker 1: fucking volume of dictionaries in his house. We had a
Speaker 1: whole bunch of encyclopedias, and for the most part they
Speaker 1: just sat there. You know, it's just like background background,
Speaker 1: you see him in the background, you know, like I
Speaker 1: used them for a school project once. Did they even
Speaker 1: sell encyclopedias anymore? Everything's digital, everything's online. I remember it
Speaker 1: was such a big deal when they went to C
Speaker 1: d ram Did I watch Deadpool and Wolverine? No, although
Speaker 1: I heard it. Apparently it's already made a billion dollars
Speaker 1: or it's about to hit a billion dollars, and I
Speaker 1: don't think it's been out for that long, so apparently
Speaker 1: a lot of people are seeing it. I'm not one
Speaker 1: of them. I don't remember the last Marvel movie I saw.
Speaker 1: Did I really use to crash into the recliner head
Speaker 1: on being he Man. Yes, I damage the recliner. I
Speaker 1: ripped that thing to shreds because I would just run
Speaker 1: as fast as I could, as fast as my feet
Speaker 1: would carry me through the living room. I would take
Speaker 1: a header right into the recliner. I have my he
Speaker 1: Man's sword. I would scream, I have the power, and
Speaker 1: I would go running across the living room. True story.
Speaker 1: Definitely watch it. Deadpool, Yeah, but don't I have to
Speaker 1: watch the previous movies. I feel like anytime these Marvel
Speaker 1: movies come out now, I feel so left out because
Speaker 1: I just feel like I'm missing so much. There's been
Speaker 1: so many of them. I can't possibly go back and
Speaker 1: catch up on everything. I hate watching a movie and
Speaker 1: not picking up on like past references or you know,
Speaker 1: little callbacks the past movies. Like I feel like I
Speaker 1: need to go back and watch everything, and it's just
Speaker 1: too overwhelming. I still haven't watched The Batman, for fock's sake.
Speaker 1: I did, however, for the first time. I don't know
Speaker 1: how I missed this, because I'm a huge John Carpenter guy.
Speaker 1: I just watched John Carpenter's Vampires for the first time.
Speaker 1: Yesterday as my my jaw was throbbing from my root canal,
Speaker 1: I just wanted to lay down to watch something and
Speaker 1: it was on Netflix. And it's actually leaving Netflix, at
Speaker 1: least here in the US. It's leaving Netflix as of
Speaker 1: August thirty. First, of course, if you have Express VPN,
Speaker 1: you don't got to worry about that because you could
Speaker 1: always find it on another Netflix in some other country.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I watched Vampires. It has James Woods, Daniel Baldwin. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you could tell they really went with the A list here,
Speaker 1: But James Woods, Daniel Baldwin, and I think those are
Speaker 1: the main names in the movie. Yeah. I enjoyed it
Speaker 1: for what it is Carpenter his movies. It just has
Speaker 1: a certain vibe. Like if you ever if you watch
Speaker 1: a John Carpenter movie, you know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: It just has a certain vibe. The music you can tell, Okay,
Speaker 1: this is a Carpenter film, and I love it. I
Speaker 1: love it. So I thought it was okay as a
Speaker 1: vampire movie. I thought I thought it was good, nothing special.
Speaker 1: I just can't believe I never saw it before. Approaching
Speaker 1: for twenty are we not already up to four twenty
Speaker 1: four to sixteen. How are we not at four twenty yet?
Speaker 1: Come on, man, we got four more to go, four
Speaker 1: more likes Mission to Mars was even It's not Mission
Speaker 1: to Mars, it was Ghosts of Mars. I actually liked
Speaker 1: that movie. Natasha Henstridge in that movie, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, one of the hottest women I have
Speaker 1: ever seen on film. I'm just being in that movie.
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about like in that movie per Se
Speaker 1: just back then, any of the movies that she was in,
Speaker 1: she was just she was a knockout. But yeah, they
Speaker 1: had Jason Stathan. That was like the first movie I
Speaker 1: ever saw Jason Statham in fucking ice ice Cube is
Speaker 1: in that movie. I liked it. I'm not saying they're
Speaker 1: great movies, but I like them. I saw mister Dynamite says,
Speaker 1: I saw Eskape from LA before I saw Escape from
Speaker 1: New York. You and me both. I saw Eskape from
Speaker 1: LA on DVD when I was in college, and I
Speaker 1: had never seen Escape from New York before I saw it.
Speaker 1: Years later, I again in LA. I'm not gonna sit
Speaker 1: here and tell you it's a great movie, but I
Speaker 1: enjoyed it. Honestly. It was more of a parody than
Speaker 1: anything else. If you really pay attention to the movie,
Speaker 1: it's it's more of a parody than anything else. Yep
Speaker 1: ice Cube and Jason Statham. We're in Ghosts of Mars,
Speaker 1: which I think has a horrible rating on IMDb. But
Speaker 1: fuck IMDb. Like what you like? That's what I say.
Speaker 1: Kelly Kopowski was a knockout. Oh absolutely, absolutely, Kelly Kopowski
Speaker 1: was a knockout. But you know who I loved also
Speaker 1: on that show. I loved Lisa Turtle, Lark Vorhees was
Speaker 1: a beautiful girl. Ana Conda, Oh my god, Ana Conda.
Speaker 1: I saw that too, Ana Conda. That movie freaked me out.
Speaker 1: There was a young Jennifer Lopez and John Voight. Oh god,
Speaker 1: who is the guy in there? The guy with the
Speaker 1: with the red hair? Eric Ah, what the hell's that
Speaker 1: guy's name? He was in that movie too. Fuck I
Speaker 1: forgot his last name. Helped me out, Eric, Eric something?
Speaker 1: What was his name? He got bit on the neck.
Speaker 1: He spent most of the movie laying in the boat.
Speaker 1: Which was the better snake movie, Anaconda or Boa. I
Speaker 1: never saw Boa, so I'll say Anaconda Stoltz. Thank you.
Speaker 1: Eric Staltz. Eric Staltz was in that movie. Uh yeah, No,
Speaker 1: I never saw Boa and I you know what, Lake Placid?
Speaker 1: I enjoyed Lake Placid. That was not a snake movie
Speaker 1: though that those were the giant alligators in the lake
Speaker 1: that Betty White is feeding. I like Lake Placid. Ice
Speaker 1: Cube was it? Oh? That's right? Was ice Cube and Anaconda?
Speaker 1: I think he was? Wait, ice Cube was in a
Speaker 1: lot of things. Wasn't he guy who played Jimmy King
Speaker 1: from Ready to Rumble was in Lake Placid? Yes, Oliver
Speaker 1: Oliver Twist what the fuck is his name? Oh? Man,
Speaker 1: Solo and ice Cube would be a great tag team,
Speaker 1: or Solo and ice Solo and ice I thought you
Speaker 1: were saying to me and ice Cube and make a
Speaker 1: great tag team. Someone should let ice cube son on Twitter.
Speaker 1: He's a big wrestling fan. Let him know. I'm a
Speaker 1: big fan of his dad's work. Apparently, Oliver Platt, thank you.
Speaker 1: That's the actor that you're thinking about, Oliver Twist, Man,
Speaker 1: I must be in more pain than I I thought. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get out of here. Thank you guys for
Speaker 1: hanging out with me on a Wednesday night. Probably had
Speaker 1: more fun talking about movies here than I did watching
Speaker 1: their show. But it wasn't a bad show. Not a
Speaker 1: great show either, but not a bad show. Better than
Speaker 1: last week. Hopefully next week will be better than this
Speaker 1: week and then we have all in so be well,
Speaker 1: stay safe, come on back on Friday night. Take care, guys,
