It was 50 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 2: so funny because a lot of people heard the announcement 51 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: or saw it on social media.

And you already like know 66 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 2: the band, you've been to that bunch of their cars, 67 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 2: why wouldn't I have known? 68 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: Also, just watch the video. 69 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 2: It's a it's a two screen. I'm in the bottom 70 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: part of the screen shot. It's amazing. Everyone's very very excited, 71 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 2: and I'm I'm super excited. Another thing that like the 72 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:14,679 Speaker 2: way I go to all the Lakers games. I'm gonna 73 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 2: be at all of the Freddy Show. 74 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: Yes, sir, you will. I might even put your ass work. 75 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 2: I'm happy to be there. 76 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: We will get into a little bit of that and 77 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: unsanctioned and then some other cool topics as well. But 78 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: there wasn't a ton of wrestling, but the wrestling that 79 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: did exist we're going to discuss. First of all, Drew 80 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: McIntyre has re signed, not resigned, but re signed with 81 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: the WWE, so we get tons more awesomeness from him. 82 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: We get the Glasgow kiss, boom head butt you right 83 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: in the face, we get the we get the clay 84 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: More kick. Waplow, just put a boot right in your jaw. 85 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: Jeff one two three two boots. Sorry bro and one 86 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: two three two. But we're gonna talk wrestling, and we 87 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: got to talk. I guess the draft a little bit. 88 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of the draft. By the way, 89 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: do you like the draft at all? We've talked about it. 90 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: We both don't like the draft, not because I don't. 91 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: It's hard to say when you don't like things in wrestling. 92 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: It's just that it seems unnecessary. It's like that, like 93 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: with the football draft. I'm gonna see players playing in 94 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: the NFL that I've never played before, whereas in the 95 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: SmackDown Raw Draft, it's like they're just going to a 96 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: different show. 97 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 2: It just doesn't I know. It's a switch a room, 98 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,239 Speaker 2: not a draft. That's what they call it. The ww 99 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 2: switcher roof. That's amazing in eighty seven, they bet they. 100 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 1: That's a good idea. I like that switch a rule. 101 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 1: It's more like Red Rover than it is the draft. Dude, 102 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: it doesn't make any sense. 103 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 2: And Vince would lose his mind, like, don't call it 104 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 2: a switchy, it just switch a room. 105 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: Don't call it a switch to switch a room. Damn it. Yeah, 106 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: I wasn't a fan of it. I look, I like 107 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 1: what they tried to do with the war rooms, and 108 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: they tried to make it NFL E, but then they 109 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: should have gone deeper with that and shown like this 110 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: appointment when a couple of their talents get stolen, even 111 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: though not many did. Pretty much everybody stayed, but still 112 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: there should have been moments there where, like a backstage 113 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: segment where Nick Aldis goes up to the talent that 114 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: he lost raw and is like to like bron Breaker 115 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: and is like, all right, but next year you better 116 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 1: believe you're coming to the Blue Brain or whatever, you 117 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like, there should have been something 118 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: like that to commit to, because otherwise it's just video 119 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: shots that don't really mean anything, and that's another thirty 120 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: seconds that you could give to a match. 121 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 2: Is this too silatious of an idea? So we always 122 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 2: talk about you know, Alex has put in a thing 123 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 2: like his Cafe Alive, and well, with social media has 124 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: really kind of encroached on what is real and what 125 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 2: is not real. You've got wrestlers tweeting out of character, 126 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 2: and then sometimes they're tweeting in character. You've got guy, 127 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: So there's always kind of this like, well, is this 128 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 2: too silatious? Instead of a WWE draft for SmackDown and Raw, 129 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 2: or maybe you could incorporate it into it. Wrestler's being released, 130 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 2: that's part of it. You put that as the because 131 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 2: there's all these releases. Oh god, if like you just 132 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 2: brutal devised the release now, people are going. 133 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, you can't, oh god no. 134 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: People would tuning in like they let go of gingder Mahal, 135 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: like like, sorry so hard. The wrestlers are hugging them, 136 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 2: going eybuddy, you know, maybe you know good luck in 137 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: the future. 138 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: Look, I'll tell you that, I'll give you this much. 139 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 1: People would watch like a mothered trucker. They would they 140 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: would watch, and they would tell their friends, and their 141 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: friends would turn on. You would see the rating just 142 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: climb as the show went on, like the three hours 143 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: of Raw. You just the number would get bigger and bigger. 144 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: But that would be the most the dirtiest business that 145 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: you could possibly do on someone that has sacrificed their 146 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: body for you. Like I would find you and I 147 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: would punch you in the face if I was that 148 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: wrestler and you were the guy that released me, and 149 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: I'd be like, that's gonna be on TV two. You 150 00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: said them well, we let. 151 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 2: These wrestlers off the hook all the time, like oh 152 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 2: it was in character or it was just this, it 153 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 2: was just dead. 154 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: They'd be like, all right, let's let's really let's really 155 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: lean into this. No absolutely no, yes, but no, like 156 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: it would work, it would work. But I oh my god, yeah, 157 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: your mind is seen. Oh I will say this. I 158 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: think we know where Charlotte Flair is going to be, 159 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: which would be smacked down because they don't like to 160 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: separate couples and her and Entrade are are super loved up. Man. 161 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: As the kids say, well, they don't say it anymore, 162 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: but I don't know the new term, but the term 163 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: just before the new term was shipped. That's right, shipped. 164 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: But that's it's not shipped anymore. It's something new. My 165 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: daughter will know. I'll ask her what it is. But 166 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 1: so so that'll be cool. She'll be back on SmackDown, 167 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: which is where she belongs. SmackDown's always been her better 168 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: promos for better matches. It just feels like the ripe 169 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: branch is yeah. Man, there's certain people just feel like 170 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: La Knight feels like a SmackDown guy, not a wraw guy. 171 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: It just feels right like that undertake, he always felt 172 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: like a SmackDown guy, not a rock gay. I always 173 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: felt cooler on SmackDown. But yeah, so the only other 174 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: thing to really talk about on the IT for Monday 175 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: Night outside of the fact that Becky Lynch's champion, you 176 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: were right, I. 177 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 2: Will say something about that when you're done. 178 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: No, you start right now. 179 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 2: I was just gonna say that I was happy that 180 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: Becky won. I thought this was great. 181 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, where people not happy. 182 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 2: People were not happy. I'm looking at the internet thing like, 183 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 2: because people still love Becky, but I think that this 184 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 2: is mean guessing. I think that people wanted Live Morgan 185 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 2: to be the champ so badly that that's why they're 186 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 2: like upset about not that they're mad at Becky or hey, Becky, 187 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 2: just that they're mad that Becky got the belt back. 188 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 2: Because like all the videos about Becky's match and the 189 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 2: video about Becky raising the title has more dislikes than 190 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 2: likes on the ww YouTube page like everybody, and the 191 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 2: comments are all like, wait, have Morgan Lived Morgan? So 192 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 2: it's interesting. 193 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, the people are ready for Live right big time. 194 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 2: Right, Well, this might be a great example and a 195 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 2: little chapter and another one of Becky's another chapter in 196 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 2: Becky's book of putting Live over. I mean it's helping 197 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 2: you know the fact that, like people think Live should 198 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 2: be the champ is a very similar tale of a 199 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 2: lot of wrestlers, like, yeah, Becky should be champing, Becky 200 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 2: should be just so it's kind of happening now Live 201 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: more than it feels, at least in my opinion. 202 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: I think she's the next women's champion for sure, and 203 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 1: that they'll be able to tell a good story. And 204 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: Becky's a wizard on the freaking microphone. Like I don't 205 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: even like to say she's she's the best because she's 206 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: like at this point, she can own a crowd, or 207 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: she can be a heel. She can be a baby 208 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: face within the same promo if she even needed to. Like, 209 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: she's just a freaking wizard. So they can tell a 210 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 1: good story. And I do think that will be the 211 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: next champ. But you did call it on this, yeah, Becky. 212 00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 2: Also, she's witty, she's funny, she's really no had to 213 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,959 Speaker 2: work on microphone in America. Anybody with a thick accent 214 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 2: from a different country. We don't know what bad acting 215 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 2: sounds like. If they if they you know if it's 216 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: a British guy, We're like, he must be the best 217 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 2: actor ever, like we we we have no. 218 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: Idea how that is not you are dead on, like 219 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: you don't even know, Like Britain jokes about how they 220 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: sent all their bad actors to us and how we're 221 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: so intimidated by a good accent that we just accepted 222 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: as that's like known throughout the business. Like that's hysterical. 223 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,199 Speaker 1: I'm glad that you're. 224 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 2: Watching like the lead of Star Wars and she has 225 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 2: like a British accent and you're like, that must be 226 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 2: how they're talking tattooing. I don't know, this is good acting. 227 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: But we don't slander Tom Hardy on this podcast because 228 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: Tom Hardy is the freaking man. He's a phenomenal care 229 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 1: what accent he uses, He's the man, all right. So anyway, 230 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: speaking of badasses like Tom Hardy who won a jiu 231 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: jitsu tournament, he entered a blue belt jiu jitsu tournament 232 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: in freaking one. Because he's a stud warrior. We love 233 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: him like we love rear Ripsy. So so I think 234 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: if there's criticism of this storyline and you're more dialed 235 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 1: into the people than I am man. I feel bad. 236 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: I'm not Since I left Twitter, I'm not as dialed 237 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: into the people. You guys got to hit me up 238 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 1: on Instagram when I post wrestling with Freddy's stuff. And 239 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: if you're mad about something, you gotta put it out 240 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: there so I know you're mad and I know what 241 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: kind of stuff to talk about. Even if you're mad 242 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: at me, you're allowed to be mad at me. But 243 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: Solo Soka, he's mad because he wasn't drafted very high. 244 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 1: And Paul Haymen is basically saying what I'm going to 245 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: say to y'all, be patient. I'll take care of this. 246 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: Be patient. I think they're going to take care of this. 247 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: This is the beginning of a story. It's chapter one 248 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: for this dude. Chapter one. Remember this dude had lost 249 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: for like a year straight after John Cena. He had 250 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: no story. He was just the guy that took the 251 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: bump to protect Roman Reigns from losing, which is okay, 252 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: and he did it really well. But he's evolving now 253 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 1: and this is chapter one of his story. And if 254 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,719 Speaker 1: you're not excited for it because there's not a lot 255 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 1: of action going on, here's a couple of reasons. Why 256 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,079 Speaker 1: WrestleMania just happened. A lot of cats are resting, then 257 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 1: they have the draft, so not a lot of people 258 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 1: are wrestling. There's not a lot of time for him 259 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: to get in and win matches. So another way to 260 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: get him over is through story and backstage segments. And 261 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: I think they've done a pretty good job with this 262 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: first chapter. Tomatanga is an ancillary character. He'll get his 263 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: own chapter when we learn more about him and discover 264 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: him in just a few weeks, I believe, And yeah, man, 265 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: I like it, do you and do you know if 266 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: the people do. 267 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 2: I don't know anything about what the people are saying 268 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 2: about it, but one thing I will I love Solisika 269 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 2: and I'm a huge fan of like all the things 270 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 2: they're doing with that storyline. I almost want to, like think, 271 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 2: think about this when you're the Honky Tonk Man or 272 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 2: Doink the Clown, when you're in any of these guys, You've 273 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 2: got to climb and climb and climb, climb. Even Roman 274 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 2: Rings had to climb and climb and climb. You have 275 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 2: this whole WWE network that you have to like work 276 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 2: and you have to be good on the mic. You 277 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 2: have to be good wrestler. You have to do all 278 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 2: these things. You have to play the little politics. You 279 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 2: have to be Daddy's favorite in Gorilla, you have to 280 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 2: you have to see who the fans like and who 281 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: the fans hate, right, You've got to do this whole 282 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 2: thing well to my advice to Solo saicoacause I don't 283 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: know how he's really feeling, being the bottom of the 284 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 2: bloodline is a lot better than being the bottom of WWE, 285 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 2: Like just waiting for your turn in the MFT like that, 286 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 2: like that's that's that's okay, We're gonna We're still gonna 287 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 2: see you every week. You're still gonna get your your 288 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 2: things way sooner than the rest of the WWE will 289 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 2: because they've kind of created their own little their own 290 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: little bracket. You know. It's like there's guys that are 291 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 2: getting released each week who are like, well, now what 292 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 2: you know, Like, how do what do I do? So 293 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 2: even if Solo Sequoia has to lose every week and 294 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 2: people aren't that interested in this story, it's still pretty 295 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,439 Speaker 2: good to be Solo Sekoa. 296 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 1: I don't think he's losing again for a long time 297 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: ago that too. I don't think he's gonna lose again 298 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: for a long time. I think he's gonna be I 299 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: think it's his time and they're gonna start putting him 300 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: over while Roman's out and doing movies and stuff. He's 301 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: pretty cool. I like his look, I like his everything. 302 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 2: I do too. Before forgetting he's growing barely been in wrestling. 303 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 2: I mean he's still super new, so like this, and 304 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 2: you know, he's never not been pushed, even when it 305 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 2: appears like maybe he's not getting a push like I mean, 306 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 2: the dude is in the main stories of everything every 307 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 2: single week.

Now, in my head, I'm thinking, holy shit, 366 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 1: how are they going to make this work? And in 367 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: my heart I'm going, holy shit, I really want this 368 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: to work. But I'm nervous, Jeff.

I don't know, ever, what's going 371 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 2: on with Tony Khan. I'm confused by it at all times. 372 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 2: He's a confusing guy. He hates Vince McMahon, but I 373 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 2: think he's secretly in love with Vince McMahon, Like I 374 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 2: think he wants to be Vince McMahon. He does all 375 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 2: the Vince McMahon things. He's like this, He's like the 376 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 2: mix of all the people we've hated in you know, 377 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 2: he's Eric Bischoff meets Vince McMahon meets Vince Russo. 378 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,360 Speaker 1: What if I told you that every wrestler I've ever 379 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: spoken to says that Tony Khan is the nicest person 380 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 1: in the world. 381 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: I love that. 382 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: His fault is that he's too nice. I love that. 383 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, he just is, like you know, the way we 384 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 2: judge wrestlers, like when they come out of the microphone, 385 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 2: like you need confidence, he need coolness, and he doesn't 386 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 2: really have a lot of that. I'd love to be 387 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 2: his friend, Druss me. I mean, the way the guy 388 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 2: lives his life is pretty sweet, and I like how 389 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 2: much he loves wrestling, but it's like he can't get 390 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 2: out of his own way. Sometimes it feels. 391 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: Here's what I'm nervous about. I feel like on Collision Saturday, 392 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 1: which is after the Wednesday show Dynamite, they kind of 393 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: already messed up the story a little bit because they 394 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: said Tony Kahn announces next week show Dunda, this guy's 395 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: wrestling this guy, And I'm like, why is Tony Kahn 396 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: making this decisions right now? Shouldn't he be If they're 397 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: taking over the show, then it should have been the 398 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: evp's making that match and not Tony, Or why aren't 399 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 1: there Why haven't they been fired. If he's okay enough 400 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: to book a match, he's okay enough to go, oh, 401 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:18,919 Speaker 1: you're going to saw me in the ring. You're suspended 402 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: or fired, whatever it is. So I was like, wait, 403 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: what's going on story wise? And I want this to work. 404 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what's going to happen power structure wise, 405 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: but I'm assuming the EVPs takeover the Young Bucks and 406 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 1: Okata and Jack Perry and that's on Wednesday. Kenny Omega 407 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: is coming back, so they're going to have an interaction 408 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 1: during his promo where they're going to I'm assuming where 409 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 1: they say, hey, man, we've fired you from the Elite 410 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: and look at your replacement. Here he is, and Kenny 411 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: Omega is going to have to stand alone against the 412 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 1: Elite to fight the Power so the people will be 413 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: behind Kenny, and Kenny's like on Tony's T team. I'm 414 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: sort of just thinking this out loud, so bear with me. 415 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: And then Adam Page is healthy, so he comes back 416 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: and he ends up helping Kenny Omega and they both 417 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 1: team up against him in and then maybe one other person, 418 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: and Tony's got his Power Team against their Power Team 419 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: and they fighted the pay per view for control of 420 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: the company and Kenny Omega gets the pin in one, two, 421 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: three and great, but hopefully they do something way better 422 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: than that. And sorry that that sucks. But I just 423 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: don't know. 424 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 2: What. 425 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 1: I don't know what their plan is. If Tony's okay 426 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: enough to book matches, yeah, does that make idea? Am 427 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: I just being paranoid and overthinking? 428 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 2: No? I mean, we'll see what happens. The thing is like, 429 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 2: I think that AW finally has an opportunity here to 430 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,360 Speaker 2: make something their own, like to have original idea where 431 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,960 Speaker 2: it doesn't just feel like something we've seen before in wrestling. 432 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 2: Never has a wrestling group been started where it's just 433 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 2: the patience running the asylum, and it kind of felt 434 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,199 Speaker 2: like that in different chapters of AW. It's only been 435 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 2: around for what five years, six years or whatever? 436 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: Five years. 437 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 2: The thing this, they have an opportunity. So it's always 438 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,479 Speaker 2: been a boss in a territory, and then Vince McMahon 439 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 2: the boss of this, and then Eric Bischoff the boss 440 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 2: of that, and Ted Turner being daddy at WW This 441 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 2: is the first time a wrestling group has been made 442 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 2: of a bunch of wrestlers, so I think they really 443 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 2: have an opportunity to play with that in story where 444 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 2: it doesn't just feel like the young Bucks are the 445 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 2: rockers and the and the and they try to do 446 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 2: like an nWo thing. I feel like you could draw 447 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 2: like ideas back to everything that AW has done. You go, 448 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 2: they're just doing this if you're really nerdy about to 449 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 2: be fair, you could do that about any TV show, 450 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 2: sure if you oversimplified enough, But there are some pretty 451 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 2: dramatic overlaps between what AW does and pasted wrestling you're 452 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 2: dead on. So what I was gonna say is that 453 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 2: they have our unique opportunity here to really tell a 454 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 2: story that has these the the elite and these guys 455 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 2: who did start this wrestling thing, Like if they could 456 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 2: try to play with that a little bit more like 457 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 2: I think they could. Yeah, they claim that as as 458 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 2: their soapbox. 459 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I could get back. 460 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 2: I would love that we came over. I wanted to 461 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 2: be like blah blah, you know, and just totally play 462 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 2: in that world. I wish they would. 463 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 1: Yeah I could. I can. I can be with that. 464 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,360 Speaker 1: I can get with that. And the only other thing 465 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: that I had issue with was the Dynamite after Dynasty 466 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 1: with Swerve Strickland who, by the way, will be our 467 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: guest next week. He announced he would be champion. That 468 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 1: was his not his dream, but his plan, and he 469 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: made it happen in twenty twenty four. He said he 470 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 1: would make it happen in twenty twenty four. He is 471 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 1: the ae W World Champion and he will be our 472 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: guest next week and we are very very grateful to 473 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: have him back again. 474 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: Vas to watch that episode or I'm sorry, listen to 475 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 2: that episode. I'm gonna be asking some very silly questions 476 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 2: and also Swerves I've already been preparing. Swerve is also 477 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 2: not the silliest guy. He doesn't like my not he 478 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 2: doesn't like it, but. 479 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: He's gonna he's gonna kick you out, most. 480 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,360 Speaker 2: Silly guy, and I'm gonna be asking some good, fun 481 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:02,400 Speaker 2: wrestling questions. 482 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: So anyway, I'm already preparing good all right, So my 483 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: and I've gotten an answer to this question. But to me, 484 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: it was weird that the Wednesday after the pay per view, 485 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: which is their first show after the pay per view, 486 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,360 Speaker 1: that Swerve didn't start the show with a promo. Instead, 487 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: he had a match with Kyle Fletcher, who's super legit. 488 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,719 Speaker 1: I've seen him now with Ospray. I saw him as 489 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: a tag guy too, but I've seen him with Ospray 490 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: and he just killed. And I've seen him now with 491 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,360 Speaker 1: Swerve and he killed again. He's he's super good, but 492 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 1: the match had no story, no anything behind it, no 493 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: reason to fight. I mean, the bad booking is you 494 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: at least let Swerve get half a promo out and 495 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: then Kyle Fletcher interrupts him and he's like, yo, man, 496 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,400 Speaker 1: why are you out here? And Kyle's like, Kallus got 497 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: me a match, f you, let's go and at least 498 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 1: then that's that's something. But for him to not get 499 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:01,479 Speaker 1: to say anything until the Saturday show felt like too long. 500 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: For me. It just felt too long. Their rationale was 501 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: they felt they'd get a higher rating based off Crossover 502 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: from the NBA Playoffs, which was playing right before that. 503 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: I don't to my knowledge, Collision does not get a 504 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: rating that's close to Dynamite, So to me, Dynamite's the 505 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: higher rated show. Now, if I'm wrong, I'm wrong than 506 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: Party On and I get why they did it, but 507 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: story and character wise, it still felt weird. Did that 508 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: feel weird too, too, that he was just wrestling this dude? 509 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, where'd this come from? 510 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: Yeah? All right, Finally, k Fabe, sir, do you believe 511 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four that there's still a seat at 512 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 1: the table for our old and dear dear uncle who 513 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: we love because he's kind of crazy. You don't know 514 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 1: what he's gonna say all the time, and his name 515 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: is Uncle kay Fabe? Is there still room at the 516 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: table for Uncle kay Fabe? Jeff, I love k Fame. 517 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 2: I am guilty of it every week. I don't bother 518 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 2: you guys as much as I bother my other rextling 519 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:04,919 Speaker 2: group thread, but I'll I'll be like, I wish you 520 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 2: felt like that was real? 521 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: Was that real? Guys? 522 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 2: And everyone's like, you stupid idiot? Because I just, like, 523 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 2: literally like I want it so badly to be like 524 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 2: you know. That's why that's the only reason I'm mosied 525 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 2: on over to YouTube to watch the cmpunk Jack Perry 526 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 2: thing in the locker room, because I was like, Oh, 527 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 2: it's something real, you know, like we can confirm that 528 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,640 Speaker 2: this is something. I want everything to be real. So yeah, 529 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 2: I think there's still room for it, even though I 530 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 2: think there's more room for it if you're if you 531 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 2: don't have social media, like if you are your old 532 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 2: uncle like and you're not watching it, then that makes 533 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: it a lot easier. 534 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: I'm with that.
