Shout out to 92 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: a friend of the show, PCO for taking home the 93 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 2: Ring of Honor championship that night and Beaten Rouche who 94 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 2: literally only had it for like a millisecond. But yeah, yeah, 95 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 2: PCO that. I was watching one of the scenes where 96 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 2: he almost got impelled by the guardrail, like he barely 97 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 2: missed it, and then the dude won, and of course, 98 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 2: you know that was the final hurrah of the year 99 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 2: for Ring of Honor. But you know, it's it's you 100 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 2: want to see a company succeed. But we've we've kind 101 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 2: of talked about this before. I wouldn't be surprised to 102 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 2: sometime maybe this time next year, Ring of Honor WW 103 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: will buy them just for the video rights. 104 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 3: Yeah. That's anytime you have rumors of events wanting somebody, 105 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 3: I mean, it's got Usually it's associated with the video catalog. 106 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 3: I know in the past when there's been talks about 107 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 3: him by an Impact, it's usually just for that. I mean, 108 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 3: I'm sure if he bought Impact now, there's a ton 109 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 3: of talent he would use. But you know, with Ring 110 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 3: of Honor, I don't know. He might send some people 111 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 3: to xt you. I'm not sure. But it's been let's see, 112 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: what's the way to put this constructively. It's been a 113 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 3: challenging year for Ring of Honor, let's put it that way. 114 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been pretty interesting to fall on. But I 115 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 2: mean I'm not saying we're not bashing this, So I 116 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 2: don't think that we're bashing Ring now. 117 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 3: Oh we love I mean, I really hope that they rebound. 118 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 3: And I mean we were at their pay per view 119 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 3: in August and you know, attendance was a little low, 120 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 3: but it was it was a good show. I mean, 121 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 3: we enjoyed it. 122 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think and you know, I don't want 123 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 2: to say it's the kiss of death, but kind of 124 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 2: when you know the Bucks and all them left, that 125 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 2: kind of depleted their roster. But you know, when we've 126 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: talked to people from Ring of Honor, it's you know, 127 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 2: they're putting stock in up and coming talent. So it's 128 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 2: not like they're putting all their eggs in the basket. 129 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 2: And you know Marty Scroll, which we'll talk about him 130 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 2: later in the show about what happened over the weekend, 131 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 2: and you know, they're not putting all their eggs in 132 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 2: the baskets. And you know, the big name person at 133 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 2: the moment, they're like building the people up, like Rouche 134 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 2: who we saw at Erro Lucha. You know, he was 135 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 2: the champion. I mean, they put stuff into him, but 136 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 2: you know, I want to see a ring of honor too. 137 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 2: Good stuff. But it's it's just an uphill battle right 138 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 2: now for them. 139 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, Well we'll keep our eyes on the situation 140 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 3: and see what happens. 141 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. So now let's move into Saturday night. So NWA 142 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 2: had their first pay per view Into the Fighter. I 143 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 2: don't know why I've said it like that. I'm such 144 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 2: a loser for saying it into the fire like that. Anyways, 145 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 2: don't judge me for that. So Saturday night, I was 146 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 2: not able full disclosure to watch the pay per view. 147 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 3: Man that was heard, we'll have to keep that in 148 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 3: the episode. 149 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 2: Yes, I'm gonna go ahead and switch to my hot 150 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 2: Spot on my phone just to be on the safe 151 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 2: side in case we lose stuff. But anyways, so Saturday night, 152 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 2: I was not able to watch the pay per view 153 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: because I was out celebrating my wife's birthday. Happy birthday, honey. 154 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 2: If you listen to this, which you probably don't because 155 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: you listen to the first thirty seconds of the podcast 156 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 2: and then you say that you listen to it. So 157 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 2: I was out eating dinner with her. We were at 158 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 2: Bob's Chop Chop Steak whatever it's in the omni. But 159 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 2: Eli watched the or the pay per view, and he 160 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 2: was kind of texting me up dates and I was 161 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 2: watching them on my phone. So let's jump right into recapping. 162 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 2: Nwas into the fire pay per view. 163 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I paid the twenty five bucks for it. Definitely 164 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 3: think that was a bargain. Had I known I was 165 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 3: going to cancel my weekend plans, I would have got 166 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 3: the pre sale for nineteen ninety nine. But anyways, but. 167 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. 168 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 3: Overall, it was a solid pay per view. I really 169 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 3: enjoyed it. I was kind of expecting something a little 170 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 3: different from like the entrances when we had billion the studio. 171 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 3: They basically just came out at the top and then 172 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 3: just walked down the stairs, and I guess it's kind 173 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 3: of got that old school vibe, you know to it, 174 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 3: But I just kind of in my head, I thought 175 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 3: I was envisioning something else. So basically the studio looked 176 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,079 Speaker 3: the same. They just came down. 177 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 2: Kind of like with Lujah Underground when they came from 178 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 2: the top, and. 179 00:08:55,440 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was very similar to that. Yeah, So I 180 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: mean it looks it looked cool. The first match was 181 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 3: Eli Drake against Ken Anderson. I'm trying to think of 182 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 3: like the standout. I mean it was solid. I mean, 183 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 3: Eli Drake got the win. 184 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: That. 185 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 3: You know, those two guys have been doing this forever, 186 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 3: and uh again, it's kind of hard to It's kind 187 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 3: of hard to tell who the heel is, you know, 188 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 3: like Eli Drake over the last like two months, you know, 189 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 3: he aligns himself with a heel and then a face 190 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 3: and then heill in the face, and then Anderson same thing. 191 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 3: You know. He was on the team that beat whatever 192 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 3: it was. It was like him and Colt Cabana and 193 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 3: somebody against Storm and whoever, and their team won. So 194 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: he was on a face team. But then this match 195 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 3: he kind of was the heel, so like, I don't 196 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 3: know it's there. I think that's my obstacle with n 197 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 3: w A. It's still kind of hard to see who 198 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: the heel is. 199 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 2: Like. 200 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 3: For example, as soon as that match was over, Dave 201 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 3: Marquez interviewed Nick Audis and he came out and I 202 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 3: mean huge ovation, like people like really were going crazy 203 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 3: for him. But then at the end of the match, 204 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 3: and we'll talk about that, he definitely was heel. Like, 205 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 3: So it's just I don't know, it's you know, and 206 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not the smartest guy in the world, 207 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 3: but I'm also not dumb. I've been watching wrestling most 208 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 3: of my life. It's really kind of easy to pick 209 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 3: up on heels and faces, and it's I don't know, 210 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,319 Speaker 3: I'm kind of having a hard time with within wa 211 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 3: here last few weeks. So anyways, not the end the world. 212 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 3: Let's see. Next match was Tasha Steeles in her debut 213 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 3: against thunder Rosa. I thought Steeles was very solid. I 214 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 3: thought that was a pretty I think that was a 215 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 3: pretty big match to debut against. You know, they've got 216 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 3: a lot of stock in thunder Rosa, and yeah, I 217 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 3: thought it was a pretty good match. I I could 218 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 3: have seen a couple more minutes of it, you know, 219 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 3: give him another three to five minutes, but I thought 220 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 3: it was good. Thunder Rose got the pinfall on that. 221 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 3: Let's see, I'm trying to think Ashley Vox came out 222 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 3: after the match was over because thunder Rosa kept attacking 223 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 3: steals and trying to think, yep, cool. So then we 224 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 3: go to question Mark versus Trevor Murdoch. 225 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 2: We just, by the way, the question Mark is not Josephus. 226 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 2: He's still suspended. Let's just put that out there. 227 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, we we got it from from the horse's mouth, 228 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 3: so that that kills that rumor. So anyways, Trevor Murdoch, 229 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 3: you know, for a bigger guy, he you know, not 230 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 3: the fastest in the world, but I mean he's he's 231 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 3: you could tell he's seasoned. You know, he can handle 232 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 3: himself in the ring. With the question Mark, you don't 233 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 3: really know what you're gonna get. You know, it's definitely 234 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 3: seems like he's leaning more towards his karate background, but 235 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 3: you know, we can't really tell. It's it's just kind 236 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 3: of unpredictable, you know what I mean, Like you don't 237 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 3: really know what kind of match you're gonna get from 238 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 3: him because you don't really know his style and all that. So, 239 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 3: you know, not terrible match. Question Mark got that win. 240 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 3: So then we get to the first title match, which 241 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 3: was rock and Roll Express against the wild Cards, which 242 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 3: the only thing I don't like about that is I 243 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 3: just I don't like the wild Cards name. It's just 244 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 3: I don't know, I think they could have figured something 245 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 3: else out. But yeah, anyways, so rocke Roll Express came 246 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 3: out with Homicide and Eddie Kingston that was their quote 247 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 3: quote insurance policy, and. 248 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 2: Then we actually saw homicided Capital City Wrestling. 249 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 3: Right, Yes, yes, he was there. I can't remember if no, 250 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 3: I don't think Kingston was there, no thing. 251 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 2: No, it was just Homicide because he's there champion. Maybe 252 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 2: he lost him by now, I don't I don't know. Yeah, anyway, 253 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 2: that's right. 254 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:24,239 Speaker 3: Yeah. So then wild Cards came out with the Dolphins, 255 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 3: so there was two teams fighting then two on the outside, 256 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 3: and I mean it was, you know, pretty crazy. Same thing. 257 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:39,559 Speaker 3: Morton Ricky Morton hit a Canadian Destroyer again and ended 258 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 3: up being kind of like a brawl on the outside 259 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 3: with the teams and everything, and the they hit the 260 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 3: double drop kick and they get the pins. So the 261 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 3: Rock Roll Express retained. So so yeah, so that's pretty crazy. 262 00:13:55,840 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 2: But they're actually filming the TV shows right now while 263 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 2: we're recording this, I believe, so things could change, you know. Yeah, 264 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 2: if you follow on social media, somebody will spoil it 265 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 2: for you. 266 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 3: Of course. I think overall, the former Bad News Barrett, 267 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 3: who his real name is Stu Bennett, I think he 268 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,880 Speaker 3: did a pretty good job on commentary, you know. I 269 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 3: think the more he does it, the better he'll get. 270 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 3: But I mean I thought it was, you know, pretty good. 271 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 3: After this match is when they probably announced my favorite thing, 272 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 3: the n WA Television Championship will be returning and it 273 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 3: will be crowned the first The new champion will be 274 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 3: crowned at the next pay per view, which is January twenty. 275 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 2: Fourth, which the belt looks amazing. 276 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 3: By the way, Yes, I own a replica of the 277 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:54,880 Speaker 3: red leather TV title, which obviously arn Anderson's may be 278 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 3: most associated with. But they did have a black one totally. 279 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 3: Blanchard had more. He was more no for the black one, 280 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 3: and then by the time it got to they merged 281 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 3: it with the w CW or WCW had their version 282 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 3: of the TV title, whatever you want to call it. 283 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 3: It changed designs and it was just so that's one 284 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 3: of my favorite belts of all time. I love it. 285 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 3: I actually might have to buy a black one now 286 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 3: to go with the red one. But super excited about that. 287 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 3: Billy was kind of hinting at that when we interviewed him. 288 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 3: He was off the record and didn't officially say it, 289 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 3: but you know, he was kind of like hinting at it. 290 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 3: So we're really excited to see that come back. Where 291 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 3: are we at? What are we looking at? Oh? Okay? 292 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 2: Well, after the tag team match, yes. 293 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 3: Alison Ka against Well, it was Marty Bell and Malina, 294 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 3: and because I guess there was a it was gonna 295 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 3: be either Marty Bell, Malina or thunder Rosa. But then 296 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 3: when thunder Rosa took the singles match, it had to 297 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 3: be Molina and Marty Bell. So Malina actually wrestled, so 298 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 3: it was good to see her back in the ring. 299 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 3: Alison Kay didn't get to let's see, when Ashley Vox 300 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 3: came out earlier, she got hurt, so then she they 301 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 3: didn't know who her partner was going to be, so 302 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 3: she brings out ODB so ODB comes into the WA 303 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 3: and they wrestle and they win by a T K 304 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 3: O I guess. Anyways, they win, Alison K and ODB wins, 305 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 3: and they kept doing a bunch of like Nick Autist 306 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 3: James Storm montages. 307 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 2: Like they were just hyped up for it. 308 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, no, and it's it's like you usually have 309 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 3: like one big thing of that, and I think they 310 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 3: did like three or four of them through this pay 311 00:16:57,880 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 3: per view, and it could have been just like a 312 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 3: time filler, but it just, I don't know, it just 313 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 3: kind of seemed to drag a little bit. But anyways, 314 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 3: the next match was another tag or I'm sorry, another 315 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 3: title match for the National Championship. Co Cobana versus Ricky 316 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 3: Starks versus Aaron Stevens. Basically Stevens uh kind of hides 317 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 3: the majority of the match, Like there's one point where 318 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 3: he's like hiding behind the Christmas tree that's on on 319 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 3: the set, and at some point question Mark he hits uh, 320 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 3: I guess the spike punch or whatever on Coke Cabana 321 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 3: and then Stevens sneaks in and pins and he wins 322 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 3: the n w A National Championship. So yeah, I actually 323 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 3: didn't see that coming at all, Uh, I think he 324 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,480 Speaker 3: I think there. I think Aaron Stevens is like really 325 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 3: going for this like sixties and seventies, you know, like 326 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 3: a go or Just George type of heel character, or 327 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 3: even like a like nature nature boy Buddy Rogers like 328 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 3: that kind of the Prima Donna kind of the I'm 329 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 3: the actor and you know, he's doing the whole don't 330 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 3: look at me, don't make eye contact, you know, and 331 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 3: all this stuff. But then when he gets in the ring, 332 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 3: he's just a coward. He runs and hides and all 333 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,159 Speaker 3: that kind of stuff. So it's taken some time to 334 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 3: kind of get to that point. Some of the stuff's 335 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 3: been off a little bit and kind of annoying with 336 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 3: some of his like like the fake movie stuff and 337 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 3: coming out dressed like a pirate or whatever it was, 338 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 3: you know. So but now that he's like aligned with 339 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 3: question Mark and he's the champion, like I think, I 340 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 3: think you're gonna kind of see that develop more. Still 341 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 3: kind of a head scratcher because Aaron Stevens is clearly 342 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 3: the heel, but then question Mark is cheered out of 343 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 3: the building, you know, so like again, it's just it's 344 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 3: kind of hard to tell which way to go because 345 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 3: you're pairing a heel with a face, so it's like, 346 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 3: I don't know, kind of hard to follow, I guess. 347 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 3: Then we went to the main event, which was Nick 348 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 3: Outis versus James Storm in a two out of three's 349 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 3: falls match for the NBA World Heavyweight Title. 350 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:18,640 Speaker 2: Which before you jump into this, it's as a wrestling fan, 351 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 2: you know when they say two out of three falls, 352 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 2: very rarely does it end in two falls in a match. Yes, 353 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:26,879 Speaker 2: you know, it's always going to go to the distance, 354 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 2: which is always fun, even though us as wrestling vana like, 355 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 2: oh man, he's gonna win it in two, but we 356 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 2: all know deep down inside it's going three. 357 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. I was talking to somebody else about that. I 358 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 3: don't think I've ever seen a two out of three 359 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 3: not go three, you know, I mean even just a 360 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 3: cat like on a Saturday morning or something like. I 361 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 3: don't I don't think I've ever seen it. So yeah, okay, 362 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:58,679 Speaker 3: but yeah, so I guess it kind of started just 363 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 3: kind of typical, you know, and then Camille came out. Uh, 364 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 3: Tim Storm was the ref in the first fall. He said, 365 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 3: what's going on? Auust tells Camille to go to the back, 366 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 3: and you know he's got his back turned to James Storm. 367 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 3: Eventually she finally kind of leaves. Uh. Storm hits the 368 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 3: last call. Uh what is that the that's a super 369 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 3: Sweets in music, I guess, or super kick or whatever. Right, 370 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 3: and he gets the pen. So James Storm wins the 371 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 3: first fall. So and I think I said that wrong. 372 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 3: I think no, I think I guess the other guy 373 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 3: was the first. Brian Hebner was the first fall. Excuse me, 374 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 3: he was the Earl Hebner's son. Obviously he he was 375 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 3: the first ref. So as soon as James Storm gets 376 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 3: that first win, uh, tim Storm gets in and James 377 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 3: Storm is attacking ALTI keeps going. They go through their thing, 378 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 3: Alis catches him in a jack knife pen, turns it 379 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 3: into a cradle. ALUs pins him and gets the three count. 380 00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 3: So we're tired. One to one coin toss happens. Brian 381 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 3: Hebner will be the official for the third fall. They 382 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 3: go through their stuff. Here's where he gets interesting. So 383 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 3: let's see where are we at. 384 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 2: When you had texted me that Brian Hebner was the 385 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 2: third I was thinking, Okay, he's probably gonna somehow screw 386 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 2: all this and Storm was going to win the title 387 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 2: just because of the track records. 388 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 3: Well, I thought it was going to be Tim Storm 389 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 3: that was going to screw him because they keep playing 390 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 3: up this whole mama's boy image, and you know, all 391 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 3: just gave him another chance and he beat him, but 392 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 3: he still like at least gave him one more title 393 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 3: shot and all this, and I just thought there was 394 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 3: going to be an alignment with them too, and I 395 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 3: thought that was going to be more shocking, but. 396 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 2: You know, by the way, Storm gets another shot since 397 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 2: it's not against all. 398 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 3: This, and yeah, so it got to the point where 399 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 3: James Storm tried to hit the Codebreaker on him three 400 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 3: times and and I don't know if if if Audust 401 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 3: actually like pulled away from it, but like James Storm 402 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 3: like literally executed it and missed and just landed on 403 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 3: his back, and then like a move or two later, 404 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 3: tries it again, misses it and just lands on his back, 405 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 3: and then he goes for a third time and then 406 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 3: he finally hits it. So I don't know if that 407 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 3: was botched or if it was like if it was 408 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 3: almost like they were trying to say Audust was like 409 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 3: breaking the hole, like he pulled away and didn't hit 410 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 3: it or something, so that was a little weird. They 411 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 3: go back and forth. Let's see, it gets to a 412 00:22:53,520 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 3: point where so Audus accidentally Laryot's hebner and then Tim 413 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 3: Storm comes to check, uh check on him, and then 414 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 3: he ends up being the ref ten No, let's see, yeah, 415 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 3: James Storm hits the last shot. Audust falls into the corner. 416 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 3: He removes the top turn buckle. Storm with a backslide 417 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 3: roll up. Audus pushes him into the exposed steel, so 418 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 3: he hits his head on the steel turnbuckle, falls down. 419 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:33,560 Speaker 3: He's out. Cold Audus supplies the cloverleaf. James Storm doesn't move, 420 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 3: he's out, and then James Tim Storm calls for the bell. 421 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 3: So same thing we were just talking about earlier, you know, 422 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 3: Nick Audus comes out, he's his champ, everyone cheers, everyone 423 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 3: loses his mind. But then he takes the turnbuckle pad 424 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 3: off of it and uses it to win the match, 425 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,200 Speaker 3: and that's a that's a he'll move one on one, 426 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 3: you know. So again it's kind of confused. And then 427 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 3: the same thing with James Storm. James Storm very popular 428 00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 3: from Impact, but then he had his rivalry with Cold cobat. 429 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,719 Speaker 3: But then by the end of this he was almost 430 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 3: the face because they cheated. He cheated to win, and 431 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 3: when he was leaving, the rests were helping him out 432 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 3: and he stopped and waved at the crowd and they 433 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 3: cheered him on again, you know. So it's just it's 434 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 3: kind of it's kind of hard to distinguish between the 435 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 3: heels and the faces. So anyways, Audust wins. Lights go 436 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 3: out and the villain, Marty Scroll comes out. 437 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 2: Which I was watching videos of like everybody posting about it, 438 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 2: and that place erupted. 439 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's pretty wild. Fans are chatting, Holy shit, comes 440 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 3: to the ring, stares down Audus, Audust looks terrified. Scroll 441 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,360 Speaker 3: goes to the interview desk. Show goes off the air 442 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 3: tomorrow or whenever you're listening to this. Uh, the next 443 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 3: episode of NWA Power, they will be airing that interview 444 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 3: that he did after the show went off there, and 445 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 3: then the stup Minute will be intervie him in the 446 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 3: studio as well. 447 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 2: So yeah, and there is actually and I'll retweet it. 448 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 2: I retweeted on my personal blot. I'll retweet it on 449 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,479 Speaker 2: the Battleground podcast page. But Maureen, who is actually, the 450 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 2: director of operations of NWA posted a photo from her 451 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,159 Speaker 2: view at the top right there at the where all 452 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 2: the wrestlers were coming out of Oh yeah, and she 453 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 2: posted the video of like the music hitting and then 454 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 2: Marty coming out, which I got total goosebumps. But it's 455 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 2: so funny to watch like people flipping out. And I 456 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 2: think I've retweeted a couple of things of like everybody's 457 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 2: like Marty Scroll giving the middle finger to WWE and AAW, 458 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,439 Speaker 2: and I'm like, he hasn't announced his full plans, and 459 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 2: according to Meltzer, he's got one indie date in January. Yeah, 460 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,159 Speaker 2: so there's still time for him to you know, you know, 461 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 2: maybe he's going to w A, maybe he's going to AW, 462 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 2: maybe he's going to NXT. But I do know that 463 00:25:55,280 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 2: if you follow Marty on Instagram, which is great, pull 464 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 2: it back up, he has been like posting photos with 465 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 2: certain people and it's like, uh, not that one. It's 466 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 2: like he's posted a photo with Darby Allen, Villain Club, 467 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,160 Speaker 2: question Mark, and then he posted a photo with Luke 468 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 2: Harper Villain Enterprises, question Mark, you know, and he's just 469 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 2: kind of like trolling the internet right now, just posting 470 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 2: photos with wrestlers from ad W and Looke that just 471 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 2: got released, and next thing, you know, he's probably gonna 472 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 2: post something with Adam Cole who I mean, who knows. 473 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 2: But it's just fun to watch and see what's gonna happen, 474 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 2: you know, for twenty twenty with Marty because lots. I mean, 475 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 2: he's probably the hottest free agent at the moment right now. 476 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he I think he owns all the 477 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 3: Villain stuff, so I think he was smart to keep 478 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,479 Speaker 3: that separate from like the Bullet Club stuff because New 479 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 3: Japan owns Bullet Club and so I mean we technically 480 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 3: could see Villain Club in waaw whatever you want to 481 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 3: whereever he goes. So I mean my gut is obviously 482 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 3: he's going to do this one date within w A 483 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 3: and then he's going to go to AW. So I 484 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 3: would be shocked if that's not what happens. But obviously, 485 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 3: if we go to the pay per view and he 486 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 3: beats all this in the rematch, then he's going to 487 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 3: stick around. The only thing that I could see is 488 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 3: just if they're going to open up a relationship between 489 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 3: him and between n w A and a W. Obviously 490 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 3: with Cody being the former champ, and if Marty wins 491 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 3: the belt and then goes to AW and defends it 492 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,639 Speaker 3: there and stuff, so maybe they'll have a kind of 493 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,479 Speaker 3: like NW a head with Ring of Honor for two 494 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 3: or three years. You know, maybe they'll defend both belts 495 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 3: or I don't know, we'll see. I don't think that's 496 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 3: gonna happen, though, I think based on our talk with 497 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 3: Billy and I can't remember, I think we mentioned some 498 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 3: stuff with Cody, but you know, I think Cody's I 499 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 3: think they're really trying to establish the company as the 500 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 3: company and not you know, TI in Ring of Honor 501 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 3: and TI in New NWA and New Japan and all 502 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 3: that stuff. So I'd be shocked if that happened. But 503 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 3: who knows, you know, a year ago, I wouldn't. I 504 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 3: didn't foresee AW happening either, So yeah, not kidding, but 505 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 3: all around, solid pay per view. I was really pleased 506 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 3: with it. I was really happy that they pulled it off. 507 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 3: You know, they've been building to this pretty much all year. 508 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 3: I mean, once they you know, this year was a 509 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 3: huge year for growth and started in Clarksville at the 510 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 3: pop Up Show with David Arquette and that put them 511 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 3: in the news, the national spotlight, and you know, just 512 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 3: been riding it since then, and then got to the 513 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 3: NWA Power that's been huge buzz and then leading to 514 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 3: this pay per view and I mean, I think this 515 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 3: is the best year the NWA has had in twenty 516 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 3: five years, thirty years, you know. 517 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 2: So yeah, excuse me, And speaking of pop up shows, 518 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 2: we are excited to announce that Tried and True, which 519 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 2: we are very big fans of, and we are big 520 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: supporters of these guys that are in Clarksville. There was 521 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 2: no really announcement. There was you know, we've talked to 522 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 2: Crimson before and he was kind of wanted to do 523 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 2: one last show to close out twenty twenty. But some 524 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 2: things happened at Clarksville with a venue and some other 525 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 2: stuff which you can check out at Tried and Proved 526 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 2: at Tried and Tried in truepro dot com.

I guess 528 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 2: it's because I'm on vacation this week, so I don't 529 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 2: have to really talk on the radio this week.

I keep seeing a lot of the 541 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 2: students and some of the guys sharing talking about an 542 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 2: upcoming event, so make sure you're following them to see 543 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 2: what's going on. Then, also again this Saturday, there's also 544 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 2: a lot of great local stuff going on. You've got 545 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 2: SUP Southern Underground Pro at the Basement East and then 546 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 2: you've got Pro Wrestling Entertainment's event going down in Portland, 547 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 2: which we are going to be at both of those events. 548 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 2: So we're going to be in two places at once. 549 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 2: How does that happen? 550 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 3: Magic? 551 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,280 Speaker 2: It's magic, just like it is now. But anyway, so yeah, 552 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 2: so those are all going down road. Dog was actually 553 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 2: on the show this past Friday you can hear about 554 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 2: the event going down this Saturday in Portland. And then 555 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 2: of course we've had some of the talent from Southern 556 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 2: Underground Pro which shout out Brickster who's in the title match, 557 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 2: which hopefully he takes home the w in that and 558 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 2: we bring him back on the show with that shiny 559 00:30:58,640 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 2: new belt. 560 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 3: Yeah that'd be crazy. Yeah. 561 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 2: So now we've talked about NWA, we've kind of talked 562 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 2: about some local stuff. Let's talk about something that I 563 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 2: watched last night and I think you kind of watched 564 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 2: a little bit of it, but it was made to 565 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 2: me at texting you saying, hey, I watched TLC. Now 566 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 2: you think, okay, w last pay per view of the year. 567 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 3: You know, it's funny because like when I don't watch it, 568 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 3: get I get text from three people. I have two 569 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 3: friends named Josh, one limbs in Memphis, one lives here, 570 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 3: and then you. So I was getting three texts like 571 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 3: all night about the batches. So it's like it's like 572 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 3: there's a radar, Like you know, when I'm not watching, 573 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 3: it's like I get tons of notices. So I will 574 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 3: say this though, if you go back and watch the 575 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 3: NBA pay per view. You'll see our friend Crimson come out. 576 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 3: He was in the producer role, I think, but not 577 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 3: to not to insinuate anything, I'm just staying in fact, 578 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 3: he was on the program. You can't sit pointing out. 579 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 3: You can't see it with your own eyes. So yeah, 580 00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 3: I will say this about TLC. I did not watch it, 581 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 3: but that's not true. I did watch what what did 582 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 3: I watch? I did go back and watch the I 583 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 3: guess the opening match who was at the Humberto and Andrette. 584 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 2: Which by far probably the best match of the night. 585 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 3: That in New Day Revival, or the highest rated according 586 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 3: to the CBS. Yeah, I will say this, this is 587 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 3: probably the highest rated pay per view they've had in 588 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 3: a really long time. The worst match was russef and lastly, 589 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 3: which everyone expected. I mean everything else, I mean B 590 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 3: B plus A minus a plus. Uh. Well, let's see. 591 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 3: So starting with the Herberto Andrede A minus A minus 592 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 3: A B minus B A B plus a C plus 593 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 3: a B plus. So I mean, I mean, yeah, that's 594 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 3: I mean I would have to go back and do 595 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 3: some research, but that's arguably the highest rated pay per 596 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 3: view this year. I mean, it would be up there 597 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 3: with I don't know, maybe WrestleMania. So from that standpoint, 598 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 3: I'm very surprised. But anyways, that I was just pointing 599 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 3: that out. I was just kind of shocked at the 600 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 3: ratings on that. 601 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 2: So yeah, and it's kind of interesting. The one thing 602 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 2: I saw when I was going through Instagram a little 603 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 2: bit earlier, as they said that there was actually a 604 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 2: record that was broken because this was the first year 605 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,719 Speaker 2: that Sina hasn't been on a WWE pay per view, 606 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 2: breaking like a sixteen or seventeen year span. 607 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 3: That's what he was talking about. Okay, somebody had reposted 608 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 3: what he said, and I just thought it was he 609 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 3: was trolling, like, oh, I guess I'm gonna do this 610 00:33:54,920 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 3: match or whatever. I didn't really think. I didn't think 611 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 3: about it being like the first time he hasn't been 612 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 3: on one in forever, you know, so or the first 613 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:10,360 Speaker 3: year you know. So, yeah, that's freaking crazy, man, I mean. 614 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,359 Speaker 2: It's it is weird not to see Sina. It's some 615 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 2: capacity of the pay per view, even doing like a 616 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 2: squash match kind of like rocked it at WrestleMania against 617 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 2: one of the Watts, I think the one in Dallas. Yeah, 618 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:28,800 Speaker 2: But yeah, so TLC I watched every match. The Humberto 619 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 2: match was really good, which is kind of weird because 620 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 2: I texted you because after that match everything was going down. 621 00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 2: It appears that they're splitting up Andrade and Selena, which 622 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 2: is kind of weird because I mean, you're taking away Selena. 623 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 2: What are you gonna do with her? Are you gonna 624 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 2: actually let her wrestle? You know, she's trained. Of course, 625 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,839 Speaker 2: she's Alice or Black's wife, and I mean she can 626 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 2: she can get in there and hang. But it's like, 627 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 2: are you gonna give her the push or you're gonna 628 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 2: bury her? Now? 629 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, she seemed to wrestle a lot more in 630 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 3: the last like year or two, and this year I 631 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 3: don't remember wrestling that much. 632 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, And so we'll just kind of breach to these 633 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 2: real quick but SmackDown Tag Team Championship, the New Day 634 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 2: versus The Revival, which I thought was also one of 635 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,439 Speaker 2: the top two matches of the night because, like I said, 636 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 2: Herberto was a good match and this one was a 637 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 2: great match. And these are the two that kicked off 638 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,879 Speaker 2: the show. Well, Harberto was the kickoff and then these 639 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 2: to open the show. And there was a lot of 640 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 2: moments that you set there and thought, okay, the Revival 641 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 2: is about to get it. And then you know, of course, 642 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,919 Speaker 2: just you know, the New Days gonna win it, take 643 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,359 Speaker 2: off and call it a day and a lot of 644 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 2: ups and downs and its. It was good to see 645 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 2: the Revival getting out there because of course they're like 646 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 2: no flips, just fists, and they were still doing some 647 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 2: high you know, risk moves, jumping off the ladder and 648 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 2: some other stuff, which you know, is a really good thing. 649 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 2: There was a couple of botches in there. There was 650 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 2: one where they try to put Big E through a 651 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 2: ladder and the ladder didn't collapse like they wanted to. 652 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 2: I heard about that, and so then they had to 653 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 2: like do like kind of like a a frog splash 654 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,280 Speaker 2: move kind of thing to get him through the ladder. 655 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 2: So that was that was that one, and of course 656 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: the entire arena started chanting kofee. Then they finally you know, 657 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 2: got the titles, called it today. That's at the end, 658 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 2: moving on to the next match, which was also another 659 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 2: really good match, Alistair Black and Buddy Murphy, which those 660 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 2: two I'm okay with this storyline, to be completely honest. 661 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 2: I like these two together. Buddy Murphy kind of you know, 662 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 2: they're doing the whole knock on the door thing blah 663 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 2: blah blah. I'm still waiting for Alistair and bray Wyatt, 664 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 2: but I think that's going to take some time to 665 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 2: you know, marinate and let it kind of happen. 666 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I guess. I don't know if they officially 667 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 3: said it, but they The rumor is he Alistair got 668 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 3: his nose broken. 669 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,839 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I was watching that and it's just there 670 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 2: was just blood coming gushing out of his nose and 671 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 2: it was just pretty rough look and it's kind of 672 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 2: like Becky Lynch when she got her nose broken. And 673 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:08,840 Speaker 2: then moving on to the next one, it was the 674 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,399 Speaker 2: Viking Raiders. They did a little promo saying that we've 675 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 2: opened the challenge up blah blah blah. Anybody wants to 676 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 2: come out of here and get it. And of course 677 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 2: the OC comes out there with this trophy, which I 678 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 2: didn't realize that they want a trophy, and I'm guessing 679 00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 2: it's a trophy they wanted the greatest tag team in 680 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 2: the world or something. I don't know. I think maybe 681 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,240 Speaker 2: they wanted it Crown Jewel. 682 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 3: Maybe who are you talking with? Ose? Yeah? Was that 683 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,240 Speaker 3: that thing they had at Nashville. 684 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was that thing that we had no idea 685 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 2: what it was. And apparently it's like the greatest tag 686 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,719 Speaker 2: team in the world. So I think they won that 687 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 2: at Saudi Arabia or Crown Jewel or whatever. So they 688 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 2: brought that trophy out. But the thing that was funny 689 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 2: before the Viking Raiders matches, like KFC did this big 690 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:51,399 Speaker 2: promotion where listeners get the biggest experience of their life 691 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 2: and it's like four fans sitting outside the ring on 692 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,359 Speaker 2: the mat. So sitting where we were sitting for rawl, 693 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 2: they had a table full of ko seafood and there 694 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 2: was four fans. You could tell that they were all plants, 695 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 2: Like they weren't real fans because they didn't have a gut, 696 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 2: they had tattoos, and they were buff. So I was like, 697 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 2: that's not a real fan. Yeah, And I'm putting myself 698 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 2: in the fan perspective because I got a dad bod 699 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,479 Speaker 2: and I've got tattoos, and I'm a normal looking person. 700 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 2: I'm not jacked up like the two guys that they 701 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 2: were sitting there. 702 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, you've got tattoos and you're buff. 703 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 2: Na, Not really, I got that Dad blog going on. 704 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,840 Speaker 2: But anyways, so I was like, okay, somebody's gonna go 705 00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,959 Speaker 2: through this table. Of course, Viking Raiders pretty much squash 706 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:34,719 Speaker 2: the OC. But a lot of people were pissed off 707 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 2: because the Viking Raiders are like, we're going to open 708 00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 2: a challenge and everybody was like, this is the perfect 709 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 2: time to bring back the ussos or you know, I 710 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 2: know that the Hardy Boys aren't going to be back 711 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:45,879 Speaker 2: just yet because they're still trying to figure out what's 712 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 2: going on with Jeff and then you know, Matt's doing 713 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 2: his thing. But it was it was a really good match. 714 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 2: There was a couple coold things. I mean, it was 715 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 2: good for for what it needed to be done as 716 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 2: a time filler, and of course at the end, once 717 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,439 Speaker 2: it was all said and done, Viking Graiders got the win. 718 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 2: And then you know, they tried to put the Viking 719 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 2: Greaters to the table of KFC stuff, but really the 720 00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 2: OC went through it and then it was done. Yeah, 721 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:18,359 Speaker 2: a lot of the crowd did not like that match 722 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 2: at all. Yeah, which moves on to our next match 723 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,399 Speaker 2: that a lot of people did not like, which was 724 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 2: King Corbin and Roman Reigns, And you know, I was 725 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 2: sitting there thinking, Okay, Roman Range is gonna win this 726 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 2: after all this crap that's been going on. 727 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 3: And then I did lie earlier. I did turn it 728 00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 3: on at this point for a little bit. 729 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 2: So I remember, Yeah, I was gonna say we did 730 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 2: talk about these matches because we were trying to figure 731 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 2: out what was going on. But I was like, Okay, 732 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 2: this is gonna set up. You know, Roman's gonna win 733 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 2: this match, go out with a bang, last payer review. 734 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:53,200 Speaker 2: But he did not win. But Baron Corbin had Dolph 735 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 2: Ziggler come out there a bib, will come out eight 736 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 2: security guards, eight security guards. 737 00:39:59,239 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 3: I do. 738 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 2: I do like the fact that Dolph Zigler did wear 739 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 2: a Bobby Rude shirt, which was kind of funny. But 740 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 2: you know, I was sitting there because I was texting you. 741 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 2: I was like that money, Roman Reigns wins this match, 742 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 2: defying all the odds and beating thirty thousand people. Yeah, 743 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 2: because that's what Vince would do. 744 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 3: I mean, this is such a bullshit pardon my French 745 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 3: Hulk Hogan match, you know, like like Romans got to 746 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:30,360 Speaker 3: take the loss. But he's like, okay, well look what 747 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 3: if I you know, what if Ziggler attacks me, and 748 00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 3: then the revival and then eight people and then I 749 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 3: hit a chair shot and then the zigzag and then 750 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,040 Speaker 3: the shatter machine and then the end of Days on 751 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,839 Speaker 3: a steel chair and then I lose. And it's like, yeah, 752 00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 3: uh okay, Like and you know, that may not be Romans, 753 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 3: that may not be his decision at all. That could 754 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,439 Speaker 3: be Vince one hundred percent. You know. I'm I don't 755 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 3: know what's going on back there, but I mean, you 756 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,399 Speaker 3: don't do anything for Corbin at that point. I mean 757 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 3: that buries him. I mean he needs he needs that 758 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 3: much help to beat Roman reigns, you know. And same 759 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 3: thing like if it is Roman directing that, it's like, 760 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 3: so you can't just take the loss, you know what 761 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:14,880 Speaker 3: I mean, Like You've got to go through all this 762 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,439 Speaker 3: crap just to do that. You know, it's the Superman ending, 763 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like he's fighting off all 764 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 3: these odds and he's going through all this stuff and 765 00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:24,240 Speaker 3: then the only way it's kind of like Sting. Honestly, 766 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 3: and I hate to say that because Sting's one of 767 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 3: my favorites, but Sting didn't lose a lot of matches clean. 768 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 3: There was always some kind of swerve involved, whether it 769 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 3: was a foreign object or pulling the tights or you 770 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:42,120 Speaker 3: know whatever. And so I don't know, I think it 771 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 3: hurts your heel in the long run because it's not 772 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 3: you know, you don't have to have somebody like bron 773 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,240 Speaker 3: Strowman who's just a monster and you know he's gonna 774 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,920 Speaker 3: win and YadA, YadA, YadA. But I mean you got 775 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,400 Speaker 3: to give him a clean win at some point, you 776 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 3: know what I mean. And if you're trying to lablish 777 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 3: him as a top heel, especially since he's won the 778 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 3: King Crown now, I mean, beating Roman clean that would 779 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,479 Speaker 3: have been huge, you know. So I was a little 780 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 3: bummed with that. CBS gave it a BE. I would 781 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:15,719 Speaker 3: definitely have given it, not a B. 782 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 2: I've probably given it like a C C minus for sure. Yeah. 783 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 2: So but yeah, so it wasn't all that great. The 784 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,240 Speaker 2: next match was the one that I was really looking 785 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 2: forward to, is the Bray White and the mid match. Now, 786 00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 2: you know, I was like, I sent out a tweet 787 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 2: talking about, you know, as much as I love the 788 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 2: Bray character, I really hope that we don't have a 789 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 2: wrestling match with the red lights.

Was like they showed on 818 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 2: the screen the Fiend, but the Fiend did not do anything. 819 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 2: And then Bray got the mallet out and it almost like. 820 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,879 Speaker 3: A huge like a Harley Quinn huge circus mallet thing, so. 821 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 2: Right, and then he was about to beat up the 822 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 2: Mizz and all of a sudden, this person came in 823 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 2: the ring, hoodie on and blah blah blah. It was 824 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:21,600 Speaker 2: Daniel Brian, but it was like og Daniel Brian, like 825 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 2: American dragon Daniel Brian, shaved head, no beard came out, 826 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 2: beat him up and attacked him and called it a day. 827 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 2: And then that was an interesting thing. And I'm trying 828 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,040 Speaker 2: to find a tweet about it that somebody actually said 829 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 2: something really interesting about that of like the Fiend bray 830 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 2: Wyatt couldn't do it, the Fiend said to do the 831 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 2: That's it was a weird thing. I'll have to try 832 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 2: to find the tweet, but we will go on to 833 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 2: the next match, and if I find the tweet, then 834 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 2: I'll jump back into it. But let's get into the 835 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 2: match that nobody really cared about and we're all tired 836 00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 2: of seeing Bobby Ashley and Russov in a tables match, 837 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:02,839 Speaker 2: which you can now talk about. 838 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 3: What your response was, Yeah, I did want to mention 839 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,279 Speaker 3: the Brave match. I didn't know that that was a 840 00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 3: non title match. I assumed the whole time it was. 841 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 3: So technically there was no world title defending on this card, right, 842 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:23,960 Speaker 3: I mean the tag teams, Yeah, but there were tag teams, 843 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 3: but neither the WWE title or the Universal was not defended, 844 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:32,840 Speaker 3: So that's strange. But what you were saying, I agree, 845 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 3: Like I think it's like the fans have been ready 846 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,440 Speaker 3: for Bray to break out for years now. And I 847 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 3: mean when when he won the title in twenty seventeen, 848 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 3: people lost their minds and then they botched that and 849 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 3: you know, we know about all that crap. So the 850 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:51,080 Speaker 3: fact that this weird character has blown up the way 851 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:54,360 Speaker 3: that it's blown up has been awesome. And I think 852 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:56,319 Speaker 3: I think you're right. I think I think he could 853 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 3: do obviously I don't see this happening with him being 854 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 3: the champion, but I mean I could even see it 855 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 3: one year him being like number ten in the Royal 856 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:09,080 Speaker 3: Rumble as Bray and then being number thirty as the 857 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 3: Fiend and then he wins the Roller Rumble, you know, 858 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 3: something like that. So I think, you know, I hope 859 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 3: they still continue on the way that they're going. But 860 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:21,839 Speaker 3: I mean, he's in the crowd is just eating it up. 861 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 3: I mean, they're he's arguably the most over male singles 862 00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 3: wrestler right now. So yes, so the train rack known 863 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 3: as Lastly and russef So the match wasn't horrible, I 864 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 3: don't think, and they gave it a C plus on CBS. 865 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 3: This whole storyline is just awful. I mean, Russeph was 866 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 3: on a radio show and he was like, oh, this 867 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 3: is the best story on TV. No, it's not not 868 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 3: even in the top twenty. And you know, if this 869 00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 3: just is a stepping if this is a spring bowl 870 00:47:00,520 --> 00:47:04,919 Speaker 3: for everyone involved to go on to bigger things. Because 871 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 3: it's funny that the people were channing Rusp Day again 872 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 3: because they squashed it. Wwe squashed it because it got 873 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:15,600 Speaker 3: popular without their input and so now they're doing this 874 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,239 Speaker 3: crap storyline and then they're channing it again, so it's 875 00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,480 Speaker 3: it's like, oh see, we can get you over whatever. 876 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:23,360 Speaker 3: It's almost like to me, and this is what I 877 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 3: was going to tell you last night. It's almost like 878 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,560 Speaker 3: somebody was backstage and said, you know what, I think 879 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:32,399 Speaker 3: it'd be cool if we got TMZ involved, Like let's 880 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,959 Speaker 3: let's like that's press, you know, like let's get them 881 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:38,439 Speaker 3: on the thing. So what will we do, Oh, let's 882 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:41,359 Speaker 3: have like a marriage thing. Oh yeah, yeah, that's cool. 883 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 3: And it's like and then they had that TMZ segment 884 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 3: before the match and they actually had the I guess 885 00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 3: the editor founder whatever TMZ like telling the story of 886 00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:55,279 Speaker 3: Lashly and Russo, and I was just like, that's the 887 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 3: whole point. That's the whole reason they're doing this crap. 888 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:01,239 Speaker 3: Is they think that like getting in with TMZ or 889 00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:04,719 Speaker 3: like having it as like edgy or something. I don't know, 890 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 3: And it's it's just shocking to me that Paul Hayman 891 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:10,920 Speaker 3: is the one that's running raw now and you have 892 00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 3: a story like this, you know, And I don't know, 893 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:17,960 Speaker 3: I hate it for all of them. I think Lana's 894 00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 3: better than she was five years ago. I think Lastly 895 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:25,800 Speaker 3: obviously he was he was the guy an impact for forever. 896 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 3: You know, Russ definitely doesn't get the credit he deserves. 897 00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 3: So I'm hoping that this is ended soon and just 898 00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 3: it kind of catapults everyone to something bigger. So I guess, 899 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 3: but technically I guess Lastly won that one, right. 900 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he won. He put him to a table, 901 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 2: but the table didn't break, so we had put him 902 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 2: to it. 903 00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 3: That's right, Yeah, that's what it was. 904 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 2: So there was a lot of kind of like botch 905 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,320 Speaker 2: that happened, and you know, I kind of thought maybe 906 00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:56,399 Speaker 2: during this match, I was like, Okay, maybe they're finally 907 00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 2: going to end this this crappy storyline and Lana's going 908 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,839 Speaker 2: to turn on Lashly, you know and push them through. 909 00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 3: I think that's what everybody. Yeah, it was either that 910 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:06,839 Speaker 3: or it was going to be an accident, you know, 911 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 3: like she something accidentally happens and then Lashle ends up 912 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:14,880 Speaker 3: through the table, you know, like not a hill turned 913 00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 3: but like last she's like, why did you cost me 914 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:18,400 Speaker 3: the mat or whatever? 915 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 2: You know, so right, and then that kind of ends it. 916 00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,400 Speaker 3: So I don't know that. 917 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, So moving on to the main event, which will 918 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 2: this will be what the second pay per view that 919 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:33,879 Speaker 2: women have main invented back to back? 920 00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 3: I think. 921 00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:39,280 Speaker 2: They may have been last one Survivor series mm hmmm, 922 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:41,759 Speaker 2: yeah they before that. 923 00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:46,640 Speaker 3: The one before that was Hele and cell That's right, 924 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 3: Seth and Bray. 925 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 2: Okay, so that wasn't okay, So they did back to 926 00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 2: back women main eventing pay per views, which you know 927 00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:56,840 Speaker 2: at the at the beginning of the match, I'm sitting 928 00:49:56,840 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 2: here thinking, Okay, the Kobookie Warriors, there's a lot of 929 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:01,239 Speaker 2: momentum behind them. And then you've got Becky Lunch and 930 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 2: Charlotte Flair. Are you just trying to put a belt 931 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,759 Speaker 2: on Charlotte so she has something?

They had 940 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 2: a lot of botches that happened in that match alone, 941 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 2: like I guess where they tied Becky to the the ladder, 942 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:43,840 Speaker 2: but they they posted some good stuff about that match. 943 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 2: And then if you check out I think it's Wrestle 944 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:51,279 Speaker 2: Elite Daily, I believe they have some good stuff on 945 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 2: there too. That kind of showed some stuff as well. 946 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 2: But yeah, so all in, all of them and the 947 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:58,719 Speaker 2: match was good itself. It's it's good to have those 948 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,320 Speaker 2: four together because they all all worked very well together. 949 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,320 Speaker 2: And I mean we kind of witnessed that firsthand in 950 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 2: Nashville when we saw the Kabuki Warriors taking on Charlotte 951 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:14,839 Speaker 2: by herself. But yeah, I mean I you kind of 952 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:19,439 Speaker 2: expect that that the Kabuki Warriors were gonna win. 953 00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:28,799 Speaker 3: I mean ninety percent. Yes. I mean even when you 954 00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,160 Speaker 3: did your little thing with Becky a couple of weeks ago, 955 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,319 Speaker 3: she even was, you know, like and now I'm in 956 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:37,920 Speaker 3: the tag division for some reason, you know, right, you 957 00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 3: could tell. 958 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:40,920 Speaker 2: That audio soon. I just haven't got off my. 959 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:45,839 Speaker 3: Phone, so you can tell she's not pleased with it. 960 00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 3: So what I was thinking was like there was a 961 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:51,239 Speaker 3: ten percent chance that it was going to be like 962 00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 3: the Rock and Sock connection, like they were, you know, 963 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 3: they're thrown together they got to do this and then 964 00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,040 Speaker 3: lo and behold they win, and then it's like they 965 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:00,879 Speaker 3: got to make it work, you know. So I kind 966 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:04,160 Speaker 3: of thought it might be that angle, but I don't 967 00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 3: know overall, like towards the whole ending of this, like 968 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:12,399 Speaker 3: it was at some point like there it was an 969 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 3: hour after the Roman and Corbin match, They're still backstage 970 00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 3: fighting and everybody's brawling and stuff. And I even I 971 00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 3: think I can't remember if I text you was one 972 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:21,959 Speaker 3: of my other buddies, but I was like, an hour later, 973 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 3: they're still fighting backstage. 974 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 2: Bro, I think that was me and you, because were 975 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 2: they did. They showed the street profits on there and 976 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:29,400 Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, like a bunch of random 977 00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:30,800 Speaker 2: people like Shorty Gable. 978 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 3: I was like, bro, give me a break. They're not 979 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:37,440 Speaker 3: still fighting an hour later. And then like it interfered 980 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,640 Speaker 3: with the ending of the tag match, like as soon 981 00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:43,040 Speaker 3: as it was over, you know, they they're still brawling, 982 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:46,160 Speaker 3: and you know, it's spilled out onto the stage and 983 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 3: rain speared Corbin into the crowd. I guess the superstars 984 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 3: were blowing whatever, and a lot of people commented about 985 00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 3: Somebody commented on Twitter and said Oscar and Carrey getting 986 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,279 Speaker 3: referred to by all are as Kabooki Warrior one and 987 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:04,839 Speaker 3: Kabooki Warrior two, Like it didn't even tell, you know, 988 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:10,440 Speaker 3: say their names, right, so somewhat racist. You know, the 989 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:13,320 Speaker 3: crowd was not into the match. It was very dead 990 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:17,399 Speaker 3: crowd and them cutting straight to men to finish the show, 991 00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:20,200 Speaker 3: not even giving the girls their celebration. She ended the 992 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:23,719 Speaker 3: tweet saying, damn girls, I'm so sorry. So you can 993 00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 3: tell you know, there's still some some some ways to 994 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:33,480 Speaker 3: go before they you know, fully embrace the women. And 995 00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:35,960 Speaker 3: I mean, they do dumb crap like that, and you know, 996 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 3: to have a match that had ended an hour and 997 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:41,200 Speaker 3: twenty minutes before that continue and that's when ends this 998 00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:43,160 Speaker 3: sh like and it's not even the main event, Like 999 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 3: no one gives a shit about this Roman and Baron feud, 1000 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:46,640 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. 1001 00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 2: And you have women headlining WrestleMania, not you know, throwing 1002 00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 2: anything around to mess that up, and then look at 1003 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 2: where we're at now. Of that, you've got to make 1004 00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 2: sure Roman is the final photo to go home with 1005 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:04,560 Speaker 2: ye Like, I get that he's this generation's John Cena, 1006 00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 2: but I mean you're literally taking away from the Kabookie 1007 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:13,200 Speaker 2: Warriors from Becky from Charlotte, and you know you're not 1008 00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 2: using your women's division like you used to. 1009 00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:18,920 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, look at who wasn't even on that, 1010 00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:21,480 Speaker 3: Like Bailey wasn't on the show, Sasha Banks wasn't on 1011 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:28,640 Speaker 3: the show. I mean, I mean freakin Natalia if. 1012 00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:30,120 Speaker 2: Morgan wasn't on the show, which, by the way, I 1013 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:31,879 Speaker 2: did send out a tweet that if liv Morgan doesn't 1014 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 2: show up, we riot And I was thinking, Okay, maybe 1015 00:54:35,040 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 2: maybe she shows up tonight during the Bray thing, like 1016 00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:43,240 Speaker 2: because you kind of think that when they showed that doll, 1017 00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:45,799 Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, maybe this is them kind of 1018 00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:48,759 Speaker 2: introducing us to Live. But Live is on Raw and 1019 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,719 Speaker 2: Bray's on SmackDown, and they keep saying that Live's gonna 1020 00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 2: show up on Raw, but nobody knows when she's gonna 1021 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 2: show up. But she's got so much hype for somebody 1022 00:54:56,640 --> 00:55:00,120 Speaker 2: who's not even on And you're giving Dana Brook, who 1023 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:02,239 Speaker 2: hasn't been on TV in a very long time. You're 1024 00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:05,279 Speaker 2: finally giving her a push. But it's because of the 1025 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 2: whole Twitter thing, and she's getting a push with Elias 1026 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 2: and Drake Maverick and she had a. I guess a 1027 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,360 Speaker 2: title shot last Friday against Bailey. 1028 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:14,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't. 1029 00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:19,720 Speaker 2: But it's you know, you're pushing the wrong people. 1030 00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:25,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's just you know, don't I don't know. 1031 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 3: I mean I can't speak for everybody, but I mean 1032 00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:33,759 Speaker 3: I don't know an established wrestler that would go to 1033 00:55:33,880 --> 00:55:37,839 Speaker 3: WW right now. I mean their track record shows that, 1034 00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 3: you I mean, even just making the company is insane odds, 1035 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:47,560 Speaker 3: but then getting up the ladder is even slimmer odds, 1036 00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:52,279 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So you know, like, I 1037 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 3: can't think of one reason that Marty would ever go 1038 00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:58,440 Speaker 3: to WW right now, like not. I mean, I mean, 1039 00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 3: even if they three or four men bos a year, 1040 00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:03,239 Speaker 3: why they're not going to use him. 1041 00:56:03,120 --> 00:56:05,640 Speaker 2: The road way so it's gonna get married? 1042 00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 3: Oh no, I mean it's it's just mind blowing. But 1043 00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:10,800 Speaker 3: that's just to the point now where they're just buying 1044 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,359 Speaker 3: talent to buy talent, you know, and you know, you 1045 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:17,680 Speaker 3: look at EC three, I mean, huge in impact, awesome talker, 1046 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 3: obviously incredible fasique, and then just because of the whole 1047 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:24,719 Speaker 3: thing with him and Dean Ambrose, they buried him and 1048 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:26,799 Speaker 3: that's it, and he'll probably just sit on the bench 1049 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:31,640 Speaker 3: until his contract's up. I mean, it's just baffling. I 1050 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 3: did have this I wanted to interject, and we may 1051 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 3: trim this audio and post it on Twitter, you know, 1052 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:40,800 Speaker 3: just to send it out to the universe. But yeah, 1053 00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:46,520 Speaker 3: I was thinking of something that could not only use 1054 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:48,319 Speaker 3: some of the people on the main roster, but also 1055 00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:51,680 Speaker 3: kind of send a jolt. That was what I was 1056 00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:57,200 Speaker 3: saying into like NXT and stuff. Basically, take some of 1057 00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 3: these guys that were on NXT that are not getting 1058 00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:05,560 Speaker 3: used right now, you know, talking about Bo Dallas, Cesarrow, 1059 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:09,680 Speaker 3: maybe even Sammy's Ain, you know, some of these you know, 1060 00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:13,520 Speaker 3: big names, and have them go down and start a stable, 1061 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,440 Speaker 3: maybe call off the Originals or something or you know whatever. 1062 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 3: And you know Bo Dallas he was the former next Champion, 1063 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:23,120 Speaker 3: you know, so they thought very highly of him there 1064 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 3: and that hasn't translated up on the big roster, but 1065 00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,320 Speaker 3: you know, have them go after Undisputed Air and say, 1066 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 3: you know what, this is our turf. We're the ones 1067 00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:33,960 Speaker 3: that built this company. We're coming back to claim it. 1068 00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 3: I mean, can you imagine Cesarro against Adam Cole? 1069 00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 2: That would be phenomenal. I mean, would I would pay 1070 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 2: more than the nine ninety nine a month. By the way, 1071 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 2: we don't get paid to say. 1072 00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:44,640 Speaker 1: That, but. 1073 00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 3: That's a Match of the Year contender, but they just 1074 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:54,280 Speaker 3: won't let it happen. Yeah, So anyways, maybe we'll post 1075 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:56,840 Speaker 3: that audio maybe a triple h ol here and maybe 1076 00:57:57,040 --> 00:57:59,200 Speaker 3: something like that could happen in twenty twenty, just. 1077 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:01,400 Speaker 2: To make sure we tag it and everything. So yeah, 1078 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:05,040 Speaker 2: but yeah, so it's it's uh, I guess this is 1079 00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:07,640 Speaker 2: time to say goodbye. I mean we've we've knocked out 1080 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:09,960 Speaker 2: kind of everything we want to talk about.
