<v Speaker 8>lower car payment just by making a phone call. You know,

0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:36.080
<v Speaker 8>most people buy a car and they pay whatever the

0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:38.679
<v Speaker 8>car dealer says their interest rate is, and they forget

0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:41.400

<v Speaker 8>to refinance any car payment to try and lower it.

0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:51.520
<v Speaker 8>It's true. There is indeed a company out there that

0:04:51.680 --> 0:04:55.760
<v Speaker 8>knows the inns and more importantly, the outs on car loans,

0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:58.320
<v Speaker 8>and they know how to lower your current car payments.

0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:01.120
<v Speaker 8>It's easy and fast, and you could have a lower

0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:04.240
<v Speaker 8>car payment next month. Make this free call right now

<v Speaker 1>Byline USA.

0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:02.680
<v Speaker 2>You were listening to Wrestling Observer Live with Brian Alvarez

0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:06.400
<v Speaker 2>and Mike Simpervivi on the Sports Byline Broadcasting Network.

0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:13.920
<v Speaker 1>Back here on the show, I realize it's horrible that

0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:17.520
<v Speaker 1>I just opened up this show laughing. But Tom sent

0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:21.000
<v Speaker 1>me to his Twitter to see what was something that

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:22.800
<v Speaker 1>was not funny at all, which we're gonna get into

0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:26.880
<v Speaker 1>in a moment. But as I was about to hit record,

0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:30.440
<v Speaker 1>I scrolled a little further down and I saw the

0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:35.520
<v Speaker 1>twenty twelve article you posted broke Tom Lawler gets forty

0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:39.039
<v Speaker 1>grand Knockout of the Night bonus and UFC on fuel three.

0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:43.159
<v Speaker 5>Wow, what a way to put you over you're broke.

0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:45.640
<v Speaker 4>Well, the reason why that even happened is there was

0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:49.839
<v Speaker 4>recently a fighter, Charles ener G Johnson, who, by the way,

0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 4>great nickname and even better haircut one A. He was

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:57.400
<v Speaker 4>an underdog, I believe this past weekend and won a

0:06:57.440 --> 0:07:02.120
<v Speaker 4>big fight, got a bonus, and it was revealed that

0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:04.400
<v Speaker 4>he was in the red in his bank account, and

0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:07.160
<v Speaker 4>I was like, wait a minute, that actually happened to

0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:09.880
<v Speaker 4>me in the past too, where I was in the red.

0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 4>I had to borrow money from one of my friends,

0:07:12.960 --> 0:07:15.120
<v Speaker 4>Dan Fern, and.

0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:18.800
<v Speaker 5>Did he work for NXT.

0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.800
<v Speaker 4>No, okay, this is like a computer security guy.

0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:22.600
<v Speaker 5>I just heard the name Dan Fern.

0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:27.240
<v Speaker 4>I use an alias, ok. But anyways, I paid him

0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:30.200
<v Speaker 4>back after the fight, just like this Charles Energy Johnson,

0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:31.880
<v Speaker 4>fella is doing.

0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 7>So.

0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.280
<v Speaker 4>I've been in the game for a while, Brian, I've

0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 4>been in the game not making any money for a

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:37.520
<v Speaker 4>long time.

0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know you've kept at it, so congratulations. All right,

0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.200
<v Speaker 1>we got to talk about a really serious situation. I

0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:47.640
<v Speaker 1>don't want to joke about anything. So before we get

0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:50.480
<v Speaker 1>into all of the updates today, in case some of

0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:55.239
<v Speaker 1>you don't know what happened, there was a Knox Pro

0:07:55.280 --> 0:08:01.760
<v Speaker 1>Wrestling show over the weekend, and to try to cut

0:08:01.800 --> 0:08:07.120
<v Speaker 1>it down to like just the basics, Rajah Jackson, who's

0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:10.520
<v Speaker 1>the son of Quentin Rampage Jackson. He went to the

0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:15.440
<v Speaker 1>show with his video camera and he's got like a

0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:17.520
<v Speaker 1>live stream that he does on.

0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:19.280
<v Speaker 5>Kick.

0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:22.560
<v Speaker 1>It's like the new one Kick, So he's like streaming

0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:26.720
<v Speaker 1>on Kick. And before the show, he's in the back

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:30.600
<v Speaker 1>and all the wrestlers are hanging out and one of

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:34.800
<v Speaker 1>the wrestlers, Psycho Stu, goes up to him and he

0:08:35.320 --> 0:08:41.080
<v Speaker 1>sees the camera and he presumes that Rajah Jackson is

0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:43.480
<v Speaker 1>one of the workers, which he is not. He was

0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:46.400
<v Speaker 1>just there at the show, and so they kind of

0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:48.640
<v Speaker 1>do a little back and forth and Psycho asked him,

0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:50.439
<v Speaker 1>you know who I am? And Roger's like, I don't

0:08:50.440 --> 0:08:52.599
<v Speaker 1>know who you are. And Psycho thinks he's kind of

0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:55.160
<v Speaker 1>messing with him because he thinks he's a worker. And

0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.880
<v Speaker 1>so he's drinking a beer and he takes a beer

0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:00.240
<v Speaker 1>can and he does like a a he crushes half

0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:04.120
<v Speaker 1>the beer can on his on his head, and you know,

0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Rajah Jackson later even he was like it didn't hurt,

0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:09.880
<v Speaker 1>but he was mad because he didn't know why this

0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:13.000
<v Speaker 1>guy hit him with a beer can. So he gets

0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:16.000
<v Speaker 1>hot and all the other wrestlers kind of gather around

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:19.040
<v Speaker 1>and they're they're they start explaining to Stu, you know,

0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:22.559
<v Speaker 1>this guy's he's not a worker, he's just here. And

0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:25.640
<v Speaker 1>you know Raja's he's he's mad, and so they're trying

0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:27.520
<v Speaker 1>to calm him down, and they're going, he thought you

0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:29.839
<v Speaker 1>were a worker. He was just you know, we all

0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:34.120
<v Speaker 1>mess around, we all and so Stu offers a handshake

0:09:34.920 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 1>and Raja wants none of his handshake, and Stu apologizes.

0:09:38.840 --> 0:09:41.240
<v Speaker 1>He says, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:41.600
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:44.960
<v Speaker 1>He offers a handshake. Rojer wants none of it. So

0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:52.160
<v Speaker 1>the one of the co owners of Knox It's Rakishi's promotion, Reno, says,

0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:56.880
<v Speaker 1>you know what, let's do a spot tonight in the match.

0:09:57.240 --> 0:09:59.240
<v Speaker 1>You can get involved in the match. He doesn't say

0:09:59.280 --> 0:10:02.400
<v Speaker 1>anything about what he he just says, let's let's get together.

0:10:02.120 --> 0:10:03.760
<v Speaker 5>And work out a spot. Okay.

0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:10.440
<v Speaker 1>So then this other guy, aj Mana, he basically says,

0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:13.679
<v Speaker 1>you get in there tonight and you can get your

0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:17.400
<v Speaker 1>receipt on this guy. And as soon as as Raja

0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:19.319
<v Speaker 1>hears I'm gonna get my receipt on this guy, I'm

0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:21.559
<v Speaker 1>gonna get to hit him back. And then he's like, oh,

0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:24.319
<v Speaker 1>let's shake hands, and he's all, you know, he's supposedly

0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:28.920
<v Speaker 1>cool with this. So you know, he's filming this, this

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:31.200
<v Speaker 1>whole thing. This is not like she said, he said,

0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:35.240
<v Speaker 1>she said, He's filming this whole thing. It's on the internet,

0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:37.600
<v Speaker 1>like as of last night. It may not be there

0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:39.839
<v Speaker 1>now for legal reasons, but as of last night it

0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:41.240
<v Speaker 1>was still there. You can go up and watch it.

0:10:41.720 --> 0:10:46.600
<v Speaker 1>So for the next two hours, Raja is filming himself

0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:49.719
<v Speaker 1>as he goes to sit down at the show, as

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:53.760
<v Speaker 1>he walks around backstage, as he as he literally explains

0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:56.440
<v Speaker 1>into the camera, I'm gonna hit this guy for real,

0:10:57.480 --> 0:11:00.600
<v Speaker 1>and he starts, he starts going on kick and everybody

0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:02.520
<v Speaker 1>on Kick is telling him like, you can't stand for that.

0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:04.679
<v Speaker 1>You got to stand up for yourself. And so over

0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:06.840
<v Speaker 1>the next hour he's getting more and more hot. He

0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:11.199
<v Speaker 1>just keeps reading this chat and you know he's he's

0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:14.160
<v Speaker 1>over and over again you know, talking about I'm gonna

0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:16.680
<v Speaker 1>hurt this guy. I'm not gonna hurt him too bad,

0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:19.800
<v Speaker 1>he says. But it's not gonna be scripted when I

0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:23.680
<v Speaker 1>get in there. And so eventually, you know, the match

0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:27.880
<v Speaker 1>is taking place. He's sitting at ringside and he ends

0:11:27.960 --> 0:11:31.439
<v Speaker 1>up he ends up flying into the ring. He grabs

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.719
<v Speaker 1>this guy who doesn't fight like the guy thinks it's

0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:36.840
<v Speaker 1>just gonna be some spot stew and he picks this

0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:39.520
<v Speaker 1>dude up and he does like the MMA slam.

0:11:39.760 --> 0:11:43.520
<v Speaker 4>It was like the booker t oh my god, where's

0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:46.120
<v Speaker 4>it the slam that he would do. It's like an

0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:47.679
<v Speaker 4>over the shoulder spine bluster.

0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and he slams this guy and this guy looks

0:11:50.240 --> 0:11:52.360
<v Speaker 1>like he's out immediately. I don't know if he's selling,

0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:54.760
<v Speaker 1>but he looks like he's out. And then Raja jumps

0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:57.760
<v Speaker 1>on this guy and he punches him as hard as

0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:00.080
<v Speaker 1>he can, full force in the face.

0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:02.240
<v Speaker 5>Twenty one times.

0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Now as this is happening, and I listen, let me

0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:09.040
<v Speaker 1>let me say this, Let me just say something, hold on,

0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:11.280
<v Speaker 1>hold on, because I'm gonna I will.

0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:13.720
<v Speaker 5>I will say what you're expecting. But I want to say.

0:12:13.600 --> 0:12:21.360
<v Speaker 1>This first, initially, last night. I was somewhat defensive of

0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:25.720
<v Speaker 1>the other wrestlers in the ring because we're all watching

0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:30.320
<v Speaker 1>the footage. We know what happened, we know what to expect.

0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Nobody in there did. Okay, there was one guy who

0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:38.800
<v Speaker 1>within about three seconds, he tries to break this thing up.

0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:42.839
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't work, and finally all of the other guys

0:12:42.840 --> 0:12:45.160
<v Speaker 1>get in and they drag him off after twenty one punches,

0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:49.959
<v Speaker 1>and I was I was sympathetic because none of them

0:12:50.000 --> 0:12:52.439
<v Speaker 1>had the benefit of knowing what was gonna happen. I

0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:54.320
<v Speaker 1>don't know if anyone even knew the guy was gonna

0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:58.040
<v Speaker 1>run in. A lot of them were probably in shock. However,

0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:03.960
<v Speaker 1>you posted a video on your Twitter today.

0:13:03.880 --> 0:13:05.760
<v Speaker 4>I'm sending you the full two minutes that I have

0:13:05.880 --> 0:13:06.439
<v Speaker 4>right now.

0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>That I was completely unaware of last night. So as

0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:16.400
<v Speaker 1>he is being pulled off and like half of the

0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:18.880
<v Speaker 1>wrestlers have bowled him into the corner to get him

0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:19.640
<v Speaker 1>off the guy.

0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:24.600
<v Speaker 4>One guy is throwing shoulder tackles, one guy hit him

0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:30.000
<v Speaker 4>with like a fake bag like that. The restraint on

0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:33.720
<v Speaker 4>Rajah Jackson left a lot to be decided. There was

0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:36.840
<v Speaker 4>one gentleman the epic who I will give credit to.

0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:39.280
<v Speaker 4>He was outside the ring, and he's the one that

0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:42.640
<v Speaker 4>ran in and at least restrained Rajah. He was throwing

0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:44.600
<v Speaker 4>head butts at him. That he was the only one

0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:45.800
<v Speaker 4>that I would give any credit.

0:13:45.880 --> 0:13:48.200
<v Speaker 1>That guy is a hero. Okay, that guy's a hero.

0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Now the I am absolutely appalled, aghast a disgusted dude.

0:13:55.320 --> 0:13:56.400
<v Speaker 5>As there we.

0:13:56.320 --> 0:13:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Only saw in the light in the in the video

0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:02.559
<v Speaker 1>that Rajah put up, we only saw him being bowled

0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:04.880
<v Speaker 1>into the like he's being he's in the corner, he's

0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:07.080
<v Speaker 1>being restrained or whatever. That's what we saw. We didn't

0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:10.600
<v Speaker 1>see what's happening in the ring. I presumed like everybody

0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:13.800
<v Speaker 1>was bulling him into the corner. You have an angle

0:14:15.000 --> 0:14:19.080
<v Speaker 1>whereas he is laying there with blood pouring out of

0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:23.960
<v Speaker 1>his head, in his ears, choking air, his teeth in

0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:29.920
<v Speaker 1>his blood. Someone covers him and the ref counts the pin.

0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:34.040
<v Speaker 4>Disgusting what.

0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Somebody covered him and the ref counted the pin. Yes,

0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:49.680
<v Speaker 1>the ref counted the pin. The video is up on

0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:50.520
<v Speaker 1>Tom's Twitter.

0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:53.680
<v Speaker 4>Timmy Handsome is the ring name of the man who

0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:57.080
<v Speaker 4>pinned Psycho.

0:14:57.120 --> 0:15:03.280
<v Speaker 5>STU mean, go after Rajah.

0:15:04.160 --> 0:15:06.840
<v Speaker 4>This is your first reaction is to pin the guy

0:15:07.560 --> 0:15:09.960
<v Speaker 4>whose call was this was it his call. Did somebody

0:15:10.040 --> 0:15:11.840
<v Speaker 4>tell them get on top of him and pin them?

0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:14.680
<v Speaker 4>End it? What is going on here? And people are

0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:18.280
<v Speaker 4>going ah, people are arguing with me saying I don't

0:15:18.320 --> 0:15:23.040
<v Speaker 4>know the unwritten rules of wrestling. The show must go on. Listen, buddy,

0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:26.840
<v Speaker 4>what about the rules of life? Okay, there's no hold

0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:29.440
<v Speaker 4>on before you go, before you go into the rules

0:15:29.480 --> 0:15:30.120
<v Speaker 4>of life?

0:15:30.320 --> 0:15:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Who is telling you, like, listen, hey, if you want

0:15:34.320 --> 0:15:38.080
<v Speaker 1>to tell me, okay, like, hey, I was a pro wrestler,

0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:42.720
<v Speaker 1>but you're a pro wrestler and a UFC fighter. So

0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:46.520
<v Speaker 1>who's telling you that you don't understand the rules of

0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:50.200
<v Speaker 1>either business? Stand by Observer Life.

0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:57.360
<v Speaker 2>You were listening to Wrestling Observer Life with Brian Alvarez

0:15:57.440 --> 0:16:01.120
<v Speaker 2>and Mike simperviv on the Sports Bylineting Network.

0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:03.680
<v Speaker 5>Right, I'm gonna let you go off.

0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Don't swear, but I want to say one thing before

0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:11.800
<v Speaker 1>we go any further. And that is as appalled as

0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:14.200
<v Speaker 1>I was with that spot where the guy covered in

0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:18.320
<v Speaker 1>the referee counted the pin. I do think that we

0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:25.160
<v Speaker 1>need to remember what happened and who did what. You

0:16:25.160 --> 0:16:27.920
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying, like, you can get mad at

0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 1>those guys all you want okay, but there's one guy

0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:36.080
<v Speaker 1>who hit the ring and like did what he did,

0:16:36.120 --> 0:16:37.640
<v Speaker 1>and that's that's Rajah Jackson.

0:16:37.680 --> 0:16:38.320
<v Speaker 5>Now go ahead.

0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:42.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And by the same token, I've had a lot

0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:47.000
<v Speaker 4>of people because I watched a portion of that hour

0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:49.800
<v Speaker 4>forty five minute video that Roger Jackson had up or

0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:51.600
<v Speaker 4>whatever it was, as I did, and I mean, he

0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:54.680
<v Speaker 4>was disrespectful from the very beginning when he showed up

0:16:54.960 --> 0:16:56.960
<v Speaker 4>kind of towards the whole event, I don't have tickets,

0:16:57.000 --> 0:17:00.360
<v Speaker 4>blah blah, blah blah. He's trash talking his butty, which

0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:03.000
<v Speaker 4>is you know, that's one thing, but then you know,

0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:06.320
<v Speaker 4>talking about how he's gonna hit him for real. I mean,

0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:10.679
<v Speaker 4>the entire thing is awful. But we had aj Mana,

0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:12.880
<v Speaker 4>who I think is the one that brought him in,

0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:16.399
<v Speaker 4>that brought Rajah Jackson to the show, a self proclaimed

0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:23.440
<v Speaker 4>MMA fighter, stuntman actor, obviously a professional wrestler, here telling

0:17:23.880 --> 0:17:26.960
<v Speaker 4>Rajah Jackson to get his receipt. You know what a

0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:30.280
<v Speaker 4>receipt is, get a receipt, tag him. You know what,

0:17:30.720 --> 0:17:34.439
<v Speaker 4>if they don't like it, I'll come out there. So

0:17:34.520 --> 0:17:37.160
<v Speaker 4>he's already hyping him up, as you said on kick

0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:41.320
<v Speaker 4>These twelve and fifteen year old kids are egging Amon

0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:45.400
<v Speaker 4>to go fight, and he gets in the ring. He

0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:51.359
<v Speaker 4>does that, and people are Any sort of vindication that

0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:54.760
<v Speaker 4>people have for him, any sort of like backing, should

0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:57.520
<v Speaker 4>be out the window. This man is an adult. He's

0:17:57.600 --> 0:18:00.880
<v Speaker 4>twenty five years old. If Brian told me to go

0:18:00.920 --> 0:18:05.520
<v Speaker 4>shoot on somebody that at the Christmas party, that doesn't

0:18:05.520 --> 0:18:08.200
<v Speaker 4>give me carte blanche to do it. There's still repercussions

0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:10.480
<v Speaker 4>that you have to face. And when I look at it,

0:18:10.520 --> 0:18:14.280
<v Speaker 4>I've got to imagine this guy has never faced any repercussions.

0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:17.919
<v Speaker 4>There's a video of Rampage Jackson just days ago on

0:18:18.200 --> 0:18:23.760
<v Speaker 4>kick saying, you know what, I saved up money for

0:18:23.920 --> 0:18:26.600
<v Speaker 4>my Asian kids to go to college, and I saved

0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:31.600
<v Speaker 4>up money to bail Rajah Jackson out right, Yes, I

0:18:31.640 --> 0:18:33.639
<v Speaker 4>mean we have it right there.

0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:36.359
<v Speaker 5>This was before anything, before anything.

0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:41.840
<v Speaker 4>Rampage Jackson afterwards makes a statement saying Psycho Stu's okay,

0:18:42.040 --> 0:18:44.200
<v Speaker 4>which apparently I don't know where he got that information,

0:18:44.240 --> 0:18:46.639
<v Speaker 4>because that does not seem to be the case. What

0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:50.560
<v Speaker 4>I understand. He was in critical care according to his brother,

0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:54.320
<v Speaker 4>and one of the biggest, one of the biggest concerns

0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:57.080
<v Speaker 4>that Rampage Jackson has and all of his videos which

0:18:57.080 --> 0:18:58.879
<v Speaker 4>you see over and over and over and over again.

0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:02.440
<v Speaker 4>And hey, I'm a parent, I don't know how I

0:19:02.480 --> 0:19:04.800
<v Speaker 4>would react if my son did something like this. I

0:19:04.840 --> 0:19:07.400
<v Speaker 4>would be concerned for him, for sure. But he keeps

0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:10.359
<v Speaker 4>asking is he gonna get kicked off off Kick? Is

0:19:10.359 --> 0:19:12.440
<v Speaker 4>he gonna lose his account? Is he gonna get banned

0:19:12.440 --> 0:19:18.640
<v Speaker 4>from Kick? Very little care for what happened to Psycho Stu. Now,

0:19:20.640 --> 0:19:26.159
<v Speaker 4>Psycho Stu, I mean, I don't condone walking up to

0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:30.040
<v Speaker 4>somebody and who's unprepared, you don't know, and whacking him

0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:34.960
<v Speaker 4>in the head with a beer can or whatever it was,

0:19:34.960 --> 0:19:37.480
<v Speaker 4>a soda can. Now clearly he was doing it in

0:19:37.520 --> 0:19:41.119
<v Speaker 4>a worked manner. He thought that Raj Jackson was in

0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:44.480
<v Speaker 4>on it. But this also, I mean, it's just a

0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:48.280
<v Speaker 4>perfect storm of events that led to this. And then

0:19:48.920 --> 0:19:52.919
<v Speaker 4>Raj Jackson leaves the guy who is dressed like a

0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:55.760
<v Speaker 4>clown and a baseball outfit who was tackling him and

0:19:55.800 --> 0:19:59.040
<v Speaker 4>throwing shoulder blocks in the corner. That guy gives chase

0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:01.879
<v Speaker 4>to him, go after him, and then cuts a promo

0:20:02.000 --> 0:20:05.080
<v Speaker 4>on him, cuts a promo on Rampage Jackson in front

0:20:05.119 --> 0:20:08.080
<v Speaker 4>of the fans. That was, you know, one of his

0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:11.560
<v Speaker 4>first actions not to go care for psychostu, not to

0:20:11.600 --> 0:20:15.440
<v Speaker 4>go calm things down in the locker room and help there.

0:20:16.480 --> 0:20:20.800
<v Speaker 4>Just a miss on so many levels. This was mishandled

0:20:20.920 --> 0:20:24.800
<v Speaker 4>so so badly across the board. One of the worst

0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:29.439
<v Speaker 4>things I have ever seen in professional wrestling or MMA

0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:33.240
<v Speaker 4>for that matter. You know this, this man is supposed

0:20:33.240 --> 0:20:36.720
<v Speaker 4>to be a trained fighter, he's owned one as a professional,

0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:42.600
<v Speaker 4>but he brandishes himself as an MMA fighter. We we.

0:20:44.080 --> 0:20:46.120
<v Speaker 5>Like it, as I mean, all the faults.

0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:48.520
<v Speaker 4>We see a fighters, we don't see this very often.

0:20:49.280 --> 0:20:52.879
<v Speaker 1>You mentioned this whole situation was mishandled, and you're correct,

0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:55.440
<v Speaker 1>but like I want to, I want to point out

0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:58.960
<v Speaker 1>that like you almost can't even say mishandled because there's

0:20:58.960 --> 0:21:01.359
<v Speaker 1>nothing handled about it. Like I don't think of that

0:21:01.600 --> 0:21:06.680
<v Speaker 1>entire stream there was like anybody.

0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:10.480
<v Speaker 5>That told anybody what was gonna happen, Like I.

0:21:10.480 --> 0:21:13.119
<v Speaker 1>Don't remember anybody him having any conversations about this is

0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:16.160
<v Speaker 1>the spot that we're gonna do or whatever, Like he

0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:18.399
<v Speaker 1>literally was just told go in and get your receipt.

0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:23.120
<v Speaker 1>And you know, again, I'm still appalled by the cover

0:21:23.200 --> 0:21:23.760
<v Speaker 1>and the pin.

0:21:23.680 --> 0:21:24.440
<v Speaker 5>And everything like that.

0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:26.960
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, I don't have any indication that anybody

0:21:27.000 --> 0:21:29.640
<v Speaker 1>in the ring knew what was gonna happen. I mean,

0:21:30.080 --> 0:21:34.280
<v Speaker 1>this dude, they who knows what anybody thought? There was

0:21:34.359 --> 0:21:36.520
<v Speaker 1>no like, hey, no one thought this is what we're

0:21:36.560 --> 0:21:39.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna do. This guy's gonna do this.

0:21:39.359 --> 0:21:41.080
<v Speaker 5>You guys do that, you know? Make sure.

0:21:41.119 --> 0:21:43.399
<v Speaker 1>I'm not even sure those guys were told. He said,

0:21:44.040 --> 0:21:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm just gonna keep hitting him till I get pulled off.

0:21:47.200 --> 0:21:49.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember seeing any indication that the other guys

0:21:49.480 --> 0:21:50.680
<v Speaker 1>were told to pull the guy off.

0:21:50.880 --> 0:21:52.600
<v Speaker 5>It was like it was like the Wild West.

0:21:52.640 --> 0:21:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Hey, you know what, We're gonna have a match, just

0:21:54.000 --> 0:21:56.199
<v Speaker 1>like you hit the ring and get your receipt and

0:21:56.200 --> 0:21:59.159
<v Speaker 1>then like, you know whatever. It's like, where was I

0:21:59.160 --> 0:22:05.119
<v Speaker 1>don't know, man, this whole thing right now Psychos. According

0:22:05.160 --> 0:22:08.600
<v Speaker 1>to his brother Andrew Smith, says that he is in

0:22:08.800 --> 0:22:13.080
<v Speaker 1>stable but critical care. So one of the wrestlers in

0:22:13.160 --> 0:22:16.760
<v Speaker 1>an interview I think with like USA today, I've got

0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:20.560
<v Speaker 1>it here somewhere, but he basically said that Stu was

0:22:20.600 --> 0:22:25.760
<v Speaker 1>on his way home. Mallow it's his first name.

0:22:28.040 --> 0:22:28.879
<v Speaker 5>Where is it here?

0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Douglas Molow, one of the wrestlers who attended to intervene.

0:22:32.040 --> 0:22:34.439
<v Speaker 4>Hold on, hold on, Brian Bryan because because this is

0:22:34.520 --> 0:22:41.000
<v Speaker 4>kind of off topic. When this happens, Roger Jackson gets

0:22:41.000 --> 0:22:43.000
<v Speaker 4>a call, He gets a call from somebody at the

0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:45.280
<v Speaker 4>show who says, man, you should have done that, you

0:22:45.280 --> 0:22:48.119
<v Speaker 4>should have gone that far. He's in the ring flatlining

0:22:48.760 --> 0:22:56.720
<v Speaker 4>and do you remember what Rogar Jackson said.

0:22:52.960 --> 0:22:54.800
<v Speaker 5>My bad, I got a call.

0:22:56.119 --> 0:22:59.480
<v Speaker 4>Uh, I'll call you back. What.

0:23:00.119 --> 0:23:04.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So, according to Well, Douglas Mallow had told USA

0:23:04.720 --> 0:23:08.879
<v Speaker 1>Today that Smith was awake talking on Sunday, broken bones

0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:11.680
<v Speaker 1>in his face, lost a lot of teeth, but then

0:23:11.680 --> 0:23:14.639
<v Speaker 1>he went on read it and said he's going home.

0:23:15.680 --> 0:23:20.080
<v Speaker 1>And then it was several hours later that Stu's brother

0:23:21.200 --> 0:23:24.480
<v Speaker 1>posted on Facebook and said good morning, thank you for

0:23:24.480 --> 0:23:27.479
<v Speaker 1>the outpouring of support. Stuart is conscious, does have some

0:23:27.800 --> 0:23:31.439
<v Speaker 1>recollection of events from the day of the attack, but

0:23:31.600 --> 0:23:32.640
<v Speaker 1>said that he was.

0:23:32.920 --> 0:23:33.880
<v Speaker 5>In critical care.

0:23:33.960 --> 0:23:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Now critical care, I mean that's the er and they're

0:23:38.240 --> 0:23:42.040
<v Speaker 1>watching you like every moment to make sure you stay alive.

0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:48.920
<v Speaker 1>So it's a serious, serious situation. And you know, yesterday

0:23:49.359 --> 0:23:50.960
<v Speaker 1>Dave and I were talking about this and he said

0:23:50.960 --> 0:23:53.600
<v Speaker 1>that Knox Pro wasn't an ID school, but they'd had

0:23:53.600 --> 0:23:56.680
<v Speaker 1>ID talent. No, it wasn't ID school. It is now

0:23:57.000 --> 0:24:02.879
<v Speaker 1>not an ID school. The the ID membership or whatever

0:24:02.920 --> 0:24:05.639
<v Speaker 1>has been pulled. I don't know what else is gonna happen,

0:24:05.880 --> 0:24:09.080
<v Speaker 1>but they're not an ID school now. And I mean

0:24:10.000 --> 0:24:11.840
<v Speaker 1>you asked the question during the break, which was a

0:24:11.840 --> 0:24:18.280
<v Speaker 1>good question. How are ID schools chosen? What does the

0:24:18.320 --> 0:24:21.600
<v Speaker 1>vetting process? The vetting process appeared to be that Rakishi

0:24:21.720 --> 0:24:24.960
<v Speaker 1>owned it. Other than that, I don't know what it was,

0:24:25.600 --> 0:24:29.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, but if you watch the video, it's like,

0:24:30.880 --> 0:24:35.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, the wrestlers are changing outside. There seems to

0:24:35.160 --> 0:24:37.879
<v Speaker 1>be very little communication about what's going on on the show.

0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:42.280
<v Speaker 1>This whole thing happened. It's like, I don't know, man,

0:24:43.200 --> 0:24:47.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know being investigated by the LAPD and what

0:24:47.920 --> 0:24:53.040
<v Speaker 1>that means. Who knows. But I mean, here's a thing.

0:24:55.080 --> 0:24:57.360
<v Speaker 1>If nothing happens, I don't know what to say about

0:24:57.400 --> 0:25:01.680
<v Speaker 1>the LAPD because all of this is on film, every

0:25:02.000 --> 0:25:05.400
<v Speaker 1>last second of it. Rampage. When he was doing his deal,

0:25:05.920 --> 0:25:09.760
<v Speaker 1>he tried to claim that, well, you know, the guy

0:25:09.800 --> 0:25:11.440
<v Speaker 1>hit him with a beer can and he was mad,

0:25:11.520 --> 0:25:13.680
<v Speaker 1>and then this thing happened and tempers.

0:25:14.119 --> 0:25:15.000
<v Speaker 5>That's not what happened.

0:25:15.840 --> 0:25:21.920
<v Speaker 1>The beer can incident was followed by a handshake where

0:25:22.560 --> 0:25:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Roger claimed that he was he was cool now. But

0:25:25.640 --> 0:25:28.920
<v Speaker 1>then that was followed by two hours of him filming

0:25:29.000 --> 0:25:34.119
<v Speaker 1>himself getting more and more agitated, flat out saying what

0:25:34.200 --> 0:25:36.960
<v Speaker 1>he was going to go in and do. I mean,

0:25:37.000 --> 0:25:40.520
<v Speaker 1>this was not like spur of the moment. I mean,

0:25:42.040 --> 0:25:44.840
<v Speaker 1>he had two hours to think about it, and he

0:25:44.920 --> 0:25:46.720
<v Speaker 1>only got more angry in that two hours.

0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:51.720
<v Speaker 4>Rampage also mentioned that Roger Jackson recently had a brain

0:25:51.800 --> 0:25:56.720
<v Speaker 4>injury from sparring, and that maybe the can shot to

0:25:56.760 --> 0:26:00.440
<v Speaker 4>the head was part of the issue. But the multiple

0:26:00.440 --> 0:26:04.080
<v Speaker 4>times are Roger Jackson says that didn't hurt it all, no.

0:26:04.000 --> 0:26:08.240
<v Speaker 1>Problem, and and I mean and bright. We also have

0:26:08.320 --> 0:26:11.120
<v Speaker 1>two hours of him seeming to be I mean, he's angry,

0:26:11.240 --> 0:26:14.359
<v Speaker 1>but he doesn't seem like he's you know, he's just

0:26:14.440 --> 0:26:16.640
<v Speaker 1>he seems quite angry. And he gets more and more

0:26:16.680 --> 0:26:19.320
<v Speaker 1>angry the more he goes on kick the more he

0:26:19.480 --> 0:26:20.880
<v Speaker 1>listens to that chat.

0:26:21.160 --> 0:26:25.720
<v Speaker 4>And you said, what what is the LAPD gonna do? Right?

0:26:26.040 --> 0:26:28.639
<v Speaker 4>What is the lap get LAPD gonna do? Probably the

0:26:28.640 --> 0:26:32.440
<v Speaker 4>same thing that the Orange County Police Department did at

0:26:32.440 --> 0:26:34.280
<v Speaker 4>the end of the day with Rampage Jackson when he

0:26:34.320 --> 0:26:36.000
<v Speaker 4>went on that hit and run in two thousand and eight.

0:26:36.680 --> 0:26:40.920
<v Speaker 1>This brushing under the rug, Well this guy does say,

0:26:40.960 --> 0:26:44.399
<v Speaker 1>have no faith in the lapd Brian, Well, all I

0:26:44.440 --> 0:26:47.159
<v Speaker 1>know is they've got plenty of evidence. I mean, the

0:26:47.400 --> 0:26:51.240
<v Speaker 1>entire thing from start to finish was all filmed and

0:26:51.520 --> 0:26:57.560
<v Speaker 1>it's out there everywhere. So this person here that says

0:26:57.600 --> 0:27:01.200
<v Speaker 1>the schools are Booker t School, Cody School, Seth Rowland's school.

0:27:02.680 --> 0:27:06.840
<v Speaker 1>It was Rakishi's school, and Elite Pro Wrestling, so doesn't

0:27:06.840 --> 0:27:09.680
<v Speaker 1>appear there is a vetting process under then a w

0:27:09.680 --> 0:27:13.720
<v Speaker 1>w E star owns a school. So all right back

0:27:13.720 --> 0:27:15.280

<v Speaker 2>and Mike Semperviv on the Sports Byline Broadcasting Network.

0:30:56.040 --> 0:31:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well, I don't know what more there is to

0:31:01.640 --> 0:31:06.080
<v Speaker 1>say about this particular story, but all the best to

0:31:06.440 --> 0:31:14.440
<v Speaker 1>Psycho ste. Hopefully we keep getting positive reports. His brother

0:31:14.520 --> 0:31:18.760
<v Speaker 1>saying he's conscious and some recollection is definitely positive compared

0:31:18.800 --> 0:31:19.920
<v Speaker 1>to the first.

0:31:19.880 --> 0:31:25.600
<v Speaker 5>Facebook post that he posted, so hopefully.

0:31:26.640 --> 0:31:28.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. And you know what, also, Brian, I'd like to say,

0:31:28.920 --> 0:31:32.720
<v Speaker 4>I hope whatever the issue is with Rajah Jackson can

0:31:32.720 --> 0:31:36.720
<v Speaker 4>get handled too. If this guy needs some medical and

0:31:37.000 --> 0:31:40.560
<v Speaker 4>psychological evaluation, you know, in order to help him, let's

0:31:40.920 --> 0:31:43.160
<v Speaker 4>go down that road. Yes, you know what I mean.

0:31:43.200 --> 0:31:45.960
<v Speaker 5>This whole thing is just a disaster.

0:31:48.480 --> 0:31:52.360
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well, what did you watch this weekend?

0:31:52.680 --> 0:31:53.120
<v Speaker 5>How's that?

0:31:53.160 --> 0:31:55.680
<v Speaker 4>For a second? Just start naming stuff because I can't.

0:31:55.680 --> 0:31:56.880
<v Speaker 5>I mean, there was a lot of good stuff.

0:31:56.920 --> 0:31:58.880
<v Speaker 4>I think I watched most of it. There's a few

0:31:58.960 --> 0:32:02.800
<v Speaker 4>matches I missed, like I missed the woman's title change

0:32:02.840 --> 0:32:05.400
<v Speaker 4>on NXT. It just so happened like I was watching

0:32:05.400 --> 0:32:08.800
<v Speaker 4>on one TV at one speed and then you know,

0:32:09.440 --> 0:32:11.760
<v Speaker 4>at a different I had it live and another and

0:32:11.800 --> 0:32:14.480
<v Speaker 4>I kind of missed that match and some of the

0:32:14.880 --> 0:32:17.560
<v Speaker 4>Forbidden Door pay per view I missed, but I saw

0:32:17.840 --> 0:32:21.400
<v Speaker 4>the majority of what happened this weekend no collision. I

0:32:21.480 --> 0:32:25.440
<v Speaker 4>watched the UFC as well, two nights of it, along

0:32:25.480 --> 0:32:31.640
<v Speaker 4>with the Kurt Darelli Oil Wrestling Tournament, which and once

0:32:31.680 --> 0:32:34.280
<v Speaker 4>again won by Orhan Oklou. I could just put that

0:32:34.360 --> 0:32:35.200
<v Speaker 4>on repeat, but.

0:32:35.760 --> 0:32:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Well, listen if you these are the matches I gave

0:32:38.560 --> 0:32:41.120
<v Speaker 1>four stars or more too if you care about star ratings.

0:32:41.440 --> 0:32:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Kyle Fletcher and Horomu I thought was pretty fantastic. Missed it,

0:32:46.960 --> 0:32:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Zach Saber Junior and Nigel McGinnis. I didn't quite give four,

0:32:50.960 --> 0:32:52.720
<v Speaker 1>but I gave it three and three quarter and it

0:32:52.840 --> 0:32:55.560
<v Speaker 1>was pretty freaking great as well, so you should check

0:32:55.600 --> 0:32:57.800
<v Speaker 1>that out. Same with o'cotton Swerve. I gave it just

0:32:57.920 --> 0:33:02.000
<v Speaker 1>under four. Same with Ton and Athena just under four.

0:33:02.560 --> 0:33:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Hangman in MJF I gave. I gave more than four,

0:33:06.440 --> 0:33:09.000
<v Speaker 1>and the main event cage match so a lot of

0:33:09.040 --> 0:33:12.360
<v Speaker 1>matches if you want, like really good wrestling that would

0:33:12.360 --> 0:33:16.360
<v Speaker 1>be unforbidden door And honestly, like if you're talking about

0:33:16.440 --> 0:33:18.920
<v Speaker 1>the the NXT show, I thought it was on the Weekend.

0:33:20.520 --> 0:33:26.200
<v Speaker 1>Jordan Grace and Blake Monroe I would say was three

0:33:26.200 --> 0:33:28.800
<v Speaker 1>and three quarter very close to four star match.

0:33:29.240 --> 0:33:30.680
<v Speaker 5>I mean they did a great job.

0:33:31.240 --> 0:33:34.080
<v Speaker 4>I feel like in a different setting. It was just

0:33:34.160 --> 0:33:35.800
<v Speaker 4>it just for some reason that fell out of place.

0:33:35.840 --> 0:33:36.280
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

0:33:36.920 --> 0:33:39.560
<v Speaker 1>Well, the best match on the show by far was

0:33:39.840 --> 0:33:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Obafemi and Javon Evans, which was pretty much as good

0:33:43.800 --> 0:33:48.080
<v Speaker 1>as anything on the AW show. That match was frickin' great.

0:33:48.480 --> 0:33:51.640
<v Speaker 1>If you're surprised that Javon Evans didn't win the title,

0:33:51.680 --> 0:33:52.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what to tell you.

0:33:53.600 --> 0:33:58.880
<v Speaker 4>He got murdered, but in a way that in the

0:33:58.920 --> 0:34:01.400
<v Speaker 4>long run you want to see him come back and

0:34:01.520 --> 0:34:03.720
<v Speaker 4>actually avenge this loss. He didn't go out looking like

0:34:03.760 --> 0:34:04.240
<v Speaker 4>a geek.

0:34:04.400 --> 0:34:06.960
<v Speaker 5>No, I will say they they did.

0:34:07.120 --> 0:34:08.960
<v Speaker 1>They did give him a lot. I mean this was

0:34:09.000 --> 0:34:11.960
<v Speaker 1>as far as like he didn't win, but as far as, like,

0:34:12.880 --> 0:34:14.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, giving him a lot in a match and

0:34:14.960 --> 0:34:17.680
<v Speaker 1>making him look like he actually could have become champion.

0:34:18.320 --> 0:34:19.440
<v Speaker 5>This was better than.

0:34:19.400 --> 0:34:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Most Yvonne matches, because you know, usually he'll look great

0:34:23.080 --> 0:34:25.239
<v Speaker 1>against a geek, but then they'll put him in with

0:34:25.280 --> 0:34:27.640
<v Speaker 1>a main event guy and like he'll get some spots,

0:34:27.760 --> 0:34:31.000
<v Speaker 1>but you know, they want you to know that he's

0:34:31.040 --> 0:34:34.240
<v Speaker 1>not at that level yet. This one, they they really

0:34:34.320 --> 0:34:37.400
<v Speaker 1>gave him a lot and he looked great as he

0:34:37.400 --> 0:34:40.960
<v Speaker 1>always does, and it was an excellent match and you

0:34:40.960 --> 0:34:42.359
<v Speaker 1>should go out of your way to see it.

0:34:42.760 --> 0:34:47.480
<v Speaker 4>This Oba Femi, good lord, he's awesome, He's fantastic.

0:34:47.680 --> 0:34:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Javan should have beat him for no other reason than

0:34:49.640 --> 0:34:50.760
<v Speaker 1>he should be on the main roster.

0:34:51.840 --> 0:34:55.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he should be like what TKO wanted Francis Naganu

0:34:55.360 --> 0:34:58.520
<v Speaker 4>to be, you know what I mean, the star for Africa.

0:34:58.920 --> 0:35:02.799
<v Speaker 4>He is just off the charts great as a big man.

0:35:02.880 --> 0:35:05.399
<v Speaker 4>He works well with every style of wrestler that I've

0:35:05.400 --> 0:35:08.600
<v Speaker 4>seen so far. I mean, I don't know how much

0:35:08.640 --> 0:35:09.919
<v Speaker 4>higher I could be on this guy.

0:35:10.480 --> 0:35:12.640
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know a lot of people talk and this

0:35:12.760 --> 0:35:15.759
<v Speaker 1>is true, like on the WE main roster as far

0:35:15.800 --> 0:35:19.879
<v Speaker 1>as like black male wrestlers, I mean there's I don't

0:35:19.880 --> 0:35:22.080
<v Speaker 1>think there's anybody really getting a push.

0:35:22.400 --> 0:35:27.840
<v Speaker 5>And uh, I will just say that if.

0:35:27.680 --> 0:35:32.080
<v Speaker 1>They bring up Trick Williams, Obafemi and Javaon and none

0:35:32.120 --> 0:35:35.840
<v Speaker 1>of those three guys get a push, then something's up, dude.

0:35:36.320 --> 0:35:39.280
<v Speaker 5>But like next year, two years.

0:35:39.040 --> 0:35:41.799
<v Speaker 1>From now, at this time, I mean, we should have

0:35:41.960 --> 0:35:48.040
<v Speaker 1>three black male wrestlers as like regular main eventors. Because Trick,

0:35:48.680 --> 0:35:52.120
<v Speaker 1>he's not the best wrestler in the world, although he's improved,

0:35:53.160 --> 0:35:56.880
<v Speaker 1>but my god, this guy has more charisma than almost anybody.

0:35:57.320 --> 0:36:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Oba Femei is like he can have a great match

0:36:00.920 --> 0:36:04.320
<v Speaker 1>with anyone. It doesn't matter if you're big, it doesn't

0:36:04.320 --> 0:36:06.799
<v Speaker 1>matter if you're small, it doesn't matter if it's a

0:36:06.840 --> 0:36:11.560
<v Speaker 1>four way. He's he's got he's got great promos. And

0:36:11.640 --> 0:36:14.880
<v Speaker 1>you know the best thing about Oba Femi, honestly is

0:36:14.960 --> 0:36:18.160
<v Speaker 1>he's one of those guys where like I saw a

0:36:18.280 --> 0:36:22.719
<v Speaker 1>video of him out of character and that's not his voice,

0:36:22.840 --> 0:36:27.719
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, what.

0:36:25.680 --> 0:36:27.960
<v Speaker 5>What so that Oba Femi?

0:36:28.080 --> 0:36:33.960
<v Speaker 1>That that's he's playing a character and it is incredibly believable.

0:36:34.320 --> 0:36:36.320
<v Speaker 4>He is from Nigeria, sure.

0:36:36.560 --> 0:36:38.960
<v Speaker 1>But he really he really plays up the accident and

0:36:39.040 --> 0:36:44.160
<v Speaker 1>such and and it works, dude. And then you know, Javon,

0:36:44.320 --> 0:36:46.040
<v Speaker 1>I know he's twenty one. They won't give him a

0:36:46.040 --> 0:36:48.640
<v Speaker 1>push for nine years, but like that guy. I mean,

0:36:48.680 --> 0:36:51.640
<v Speaker 1>he should have been the youngest NXT champion. He is

0:36:51.719 --> 0:36:56.560
<v Speaker 1>a very special talent and he's like the crowd absolutely

0:36:56.600 --> 0:36:59.880
<v Speaker 1>loves this guy. You just give him a little and

0:37:00.160 --> 0:37:03.920
<v Speaker 1>they go wild, so like if they gave him a lot.

0:37:04.280 --> 0:37:06.839
<v Speaker 5>I mean, he's is just a man.

0:37:07.480 --> 0:37:12.399
<v Speaker 1>They got some awesome dudes coming up from from developmental year.

0:37:12.760 --> 0:37:17.080
<v Speaker 4>We're almost back to the days of the murderer's row

0:37:17.880 --> 0:37:22.160
<v Speaker 4>of the early African American professional wrestlers, which I learned

0:37:22.200 --> 0:37:25.760
<v Speaker 4>about in a great book by Ian Douglas, A decided novelty.

0:37:25.800 --> 0:37:30.480
<v Speaker 4>I finished it this weekend. I learned so much information.

0:37:30.840 --> 0:37:34.680
<v Speaker 4>I would put it up there with the Carl Stern

0:37:34.719 --> 0:37:40.960
<v Speaker 4>Omnibus book. It's somewhat in that mold, not as fact heavy.

0:37:41.000 --> 0:37:44.319
<v Speaker 4>Ian Douglas does a great job of weaving in, you know,

0:37:44.440 --> 0:37:47.040
<v Speaker 4>the history with his writing style, and man, I learned

0:37:47.080 --> 0:37:49.640
<v Speaker 4>a ton from this book, so if you can check

0:37:49.680 --> 0:37:52.919
<v Speaker 4>it out on Amazon, A decided novelty. But it did

0:37:53.000 --> 0:37:55.520
<v Speaker 4>make me think of, you know, some of the past

0:37:55.719 --> 0:37:59.880
<v Speaker 4>errors that we've had with great, great Black or African

0:38:00.000 --> 0:38:03.000
<v Speaker 4>American wrestlers, and right now I really think Obafemi is

0:38:03.040 --> 0:38:04.920
<v Speaker 4>like the one that should be at the top of

0:38:05.000 --> 0:38:05.319
<v Speaker 4>the heap.

0:38:06.040 --> 0:38:09.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, man, I mean Oban Oban Trick, like

0:38:09.600 --> 0:38:12.759
<v Speaker 1>I get it. Javon's young. You know they're gonna they're

0:38:12.800 --> 0:38:17.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna wait. But like Trick is great, he is so

0:38:17.280 --> 0:38:22.160
<v Speaker 1>charismatic and he's he's far like you know, it's either one,

0:38:22.200 --> 0:38:24.040
<v Speaker 1>because I go Oba Femmi is a better he has

0:38:24.120 --> 0:38:27.920
<v Speaker 1>better matches. I would say he's a better worker. Javon

0:38:28.120 --> 0:38:31.560
<v Speaker 1>is is of the two more charismatic. But it's not

0:38:31.680 --> 0:38:34.360
<v Speaker 1>like Javon or it's not like Trick is a bad worker.

0:38:34.400 --> 0:38:37.960
<v Speaker 1>And it's not like Oba isn't charismatic. So like both

0:38:38.000 --> 0:38:40.160
<v Speaker 1>of them, you could go, you could go all the.

0:38:40.160 --> 0:38:44.279
<v Speaker 4>Way and uh yeah, I hope they do.

0:38:45.520 --> 0:38:46.400
<v Speaker 5>We should also.

0:38:47.880 --> 0:38:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Mentioned a couple of things coming out of of of

0:38:50.000 --> 0:38:56.120
<v Speaker 1>a W So the UH post show press conference. Tony

0:38:56.200 --> 0:39:00.200
<v Speaker 1>Kahn has now announced he's he's now Dario Kuaita and

0:39:00.280 --> 0:39:04.080
<v Speaker 1>Lucia underground good. The money in the bank contract that

0:39:04.160 --> 0:39:07.520
<v Speaker 1>they have you cannot cash in at any time. You

0:39:07.640 --> 0:39:11.040
<v Speaker 1>must give a week's notice so that he can properly promote.

0:39:11.760 --> 0:39:14.239
<v Speaker 1>And you know a couple of people here were like, well,

0:39:14.280 --> 0:39:17.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, why even have the cash in deal? Why

0:39:17.280 --> 0:39:19.720
<v Speaker 1>not you say the winner gets a title shot, because

0:39:20.080 --> 0:39:23.319
<v Speaker 1>when you win a title shot, the promoter decides when

0:39:23.360 --> 0:39:25.040
<v Speaker 1>that title shot is going to be. This is all

0:39:25.040 --> 0:39:27.640
<v Speaker 1>in storyline, like, Okay, you won, Well you're gonna get

0:39:27.640 --> 0:39:29.200
<v Speaker 1>your shot at all out, or you're gonna get your

0:39:29.239 --> 0:39:31.960
<v Speaker 1>shot at whatever. This would mean. Hey, bro, if you

0:39:31.960 --> 0:39:34.759
<v Speaker 1>want your shot on TV next week, you call it.

0:39:34.800 --> 0:39:36.600
<v Speaker 1>You don't have to wait for a pay per view. Hey,

0:39:36.640 --> 0:39:38.200
<v Speaker 1>the pay per view is coming in your hometown in

0:39:38.239 --> 0:39:40.799
<v Speaker 1>three months. You can call the shot there. So in storyline,

0:39:41.120 --> 0:39:43.840
<v Speaker 1>it's better to be able to choose the time and

0:39:43.920 --> 0:39:45.080
<v Speaker 1>place than to have.

0:39:45.080 --> 0:39:48.440
<v Speaker 5>The promoter do it for you. And he did mention that.

0:39:48.719 --> 0:39:51.520
<v Speaker 4>Although, hey, if they're a good promoter, they're probably gonna

0:39:51.520 --> 0:39:54.239
<v Speaker 4>do it right. Like who made the decision to have

0:39:54.360 --> 0:40:01.520
<v Speaker 4>Lolavice challenge down near her hometown? Was it Ava? Was it?

0:40:01.560 --> 0:40:01.719
<v Speaker 6>Was it?

0:40:01.800 --> 0:40:02.800
<v Speaker 4>Her? Was Lola?

0:40:03.160 --> 0:40:06.280
<v Speaker 1>It might have been It's probably Ava, probably Lola's idea,

0:40:06.320 --> 0:40:07.240
<v Speaker 1>but Ava took credit.

0:40:07.360 --> 0:40:09.680
<v Speaker 5>Look at that how it normally works here.

0:40:10.320 --> 0:40:15.600
<v Speaker 1>But Hangman beat MJF in the championship match, which was

0:40:16.120 --> 0:40:18.040
<v Speaker 1>in the ring. It was the best match on the show,

0:40:18.080 --> 0:40:21.040
<v Speaker 1>but it had a really weird like ref bump thing

0:40:21.120 --> 0:40:23.560
<v Speaker 1>that just like it sucked and it was so bad.

0:40:23.640 --> 0:40:26.480
<v Speaker 1>I think that there was another idea that like something

0:40:26.520 --> 0:40:28.960
<v Speaker 1>went wrong or somebody missed a cue or a camera

0:40:29.000 --> 0:40:33.200
<v Speaker 1>missed something or whatever. But hey, MGF still has the

0:40:33.400 --> 0:40:36.479
<v Speaker 1>contract in his back pocket, so he can either call

0:40:36.520 --> 0:40:40.760
<v Speaker 1>his shot, which I think is actually what's going to happen.

0:40:41.960 --> 0:40:46.200
<v Speaker 1>I had been advocating for Tony Kahan to force MGF

0:40:46.239 --> 0:40:48.520
<v Speaker 1>to put it on the line against Mark Brisco, But

0:40:48.640 --> 0:40:52.479
<v Speaker 1>since Tony did that press conference and made no mention

0:40:52.560 --> 0:40:54.440
<v Speaker 1>of that, but did change how you can cash in,

0:40:55.080 --> 0:40:55.759
<v Speaker 1>that sounds to.

0:40:55.719 --> 0:40:59.240
<v Speaker 5>Me like, well, that's what it's gonna be. I guess.

0:40:59.280 --> 0:41:01.840
<v Speaker 1>I guess he could s something on Wednesday, but I

0:41:01.840 --> 0:41:06.040
<v Speaker 1>don't think Mark Briusco is getting a shot at that contract.

0:41:06.200 --> 0:41:09.520
<v Speaker 1>And then two other major notes after the cage match,

0:41:10.400 --> 0:41:13.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they pretty much told you this was Will

0:41:13.600 --> 0:41:16.319
<v Speaker 1>Ospray's last match for a while, and they did a

0:41:16.400 --> 0:41:19.000
<v Speaker 1>video before the match pretty much telling you it was

0:41:19.040 --> 0:41:21.399
<v Speaker 1>his last match for a while. And then he did

0:41:21.400 --> 0:41:23.560
<v Speaker 1>a curtain call pretty much telling you it was his

0:41:23.640 --> 0:41:26.680
<v Speaker 1>last match for a while. But they still made sure

0:41:26.719 --> 0:41:29.879
<v Speaker 1>to kill him in storyline. The Heels beat him down,

0:41:29.960 --> 0:41:33.600
<v Speaker 1>they pilmanized him, he was taken out on a stretcher.

0:41:34.000 --> 0:41:36.279
<v Speaker 1>He's getting neck surgery and he's gonna be gone for

0:41:36.320 --> 0:41:39.200
<v Speaker 1>a while. And I don't know if Swerve is getting

0:41:39.280 --> 0:41:42.359
<v Speaker 1>knee surgery, but he's got it torn meniscus and they

0:41:42.360 --> 0:41:45.920
<v Speaker 1>did an injury angle afterwards that very much seemed like

0:41:45.960 --> 0:41:47.760
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna be out of action with knee surgery.

0:41:48.600 --> 0:41:49.560
<v Speaker 5>But I guess we'll see.

0:41:50.200 --> 0:41:53.279
<v Speaker 4>Luckily, out of all the surgeries, I think the meniscus

0:41:53.320 --> 0:41:56.440
<v Speaker 4>is probably the one that heals like the fastest, definitely,

0:41:56.760 --> 0:42:01.920
<v Speaker 4>certainly more than an ACL or or PCL or any

0:42:01.960 --> 0:42:04.080
<v Speaker 4>of the other things. Because I know I've had a

0:42:04.239 --> 0:42:07.560
<v Speaker 4>minister's scope in the past. I think you have too, Brian, Right, No,

0:42:07.680 --> 0:42:08.839
<v Speaker 4>I haven't no, oh.

0:42:09.960 --> 0:42:12.759
<v Speaker 5>A surgeon to call me. It's been almost a year.

0:42:13.520 --> 0:42:15.480
<v Speaker 4>Hey, you might have to come down here. I can

0:42:15.560 --> 0:42:16.239
<v Speaker 4>hook you up. Bro.

0:42:16.360 --> 0:42:20.960
<v Speaker 1>At this point, it's about ninety nine percent, Like, I

0:42:21.000 --> 0:42:24.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I'll probably get it done someday. But I mean,

0:42:24.239 --> 0:42:26.680
<v Speaker 1>the only time I ever have a problem is sometimes

0:42:26.760 --> 0:42:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I'll be rolling and I'll turn my foot a certain

0:42:29.520 --> 0:42:31.520
<v Speaker 1>way and it'll be like weird, and then I have

0:42:31.560 --> 0:42:33.520
<v Speaker 1>to stop and like bend it and it goes back

0:42:33.520 --> 0:42:36.120
<v Speaker 1>and then I'm fine. But like I have no problems,

0:42:36.239 --> 0:42:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Like I can run, jump, sprint, walk, play with the kids.

0:42:41.160 --> 0:42:42.400
<v Speaker 1>I have no problems whatsoever.

0:42:42.680 --> 0:42:44.839
<v Speaker 4>Would you be able to jump high enough to give

0:42:44.840 --> 0:42:45.479
<v Speaker 4>me a high five?

0:42:46.640 --> 0:42:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't do that before I tore my meniscus because

0:42:51.080 --> 0:42:53.440
<v Speaker 1>you're freakily long arms it.

0:42:53.480 --> 0:42:54.520
<v Speaker 4>Thanks for taking the bait.

0:42:54.680 --> 0:42:59.120
<v Speaker 1>You're an idiot, absolute idiot. I got a scoop for everybody,

0:42:59.239 --> 0:43:04.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of Apparently mbop wasn't that expensive. I know that's

0:43:04.480 --> 0:43:07.959
<v Speaker 1>hard to believe, but apparently Hanson let it go cheap.

0:43:08.239 --> 0:43:10.360
<v Speaker 1>So I'm hoping that'll be like their new music for

0:43:10.400 --> 0:43:13.160
<v Speaker 1>the Young Bucks, because that was their music back in

0:43:13.200 --> 0:43:13.520
<v Speaker 1>the day.

0:43:14.239 --> 0:43:15.160
<v Speaker 5>And I've been waiting.

0:43:15.239 --> 0:43:17.920
<v Speaker 1>I've been waiting in decades, almost as long as I

0:43:17.960 --> 0:43:22.480
<v Speaker 1>waited for uh Basic Thugonomics to return for John Cena.

0:43:22.920 --> 0:43:24.919
<v Speaker 5>I've been waiting for mbop to return.

0:43:25.840 --> 0:43:27.960
<v Speaker 4>And almost as long as you waited for the Golden

0:43:28.080 --> 0:43:30.040
<v Speaker 4>Eagle to come back.

0:43:30.160 --> 0:43:32.359
<v Speaker 5>The winged Eagle is that what it is?

0:43:33.320 --> 0:43:37.440
<v Speaker 4>Wing it the golden Eagles like kobeeb nor maca metof

0:43:37.480 --> 0:43:37.960
<v Speaker 4>or something.

0:43:38.160 --> 0:43:42.359
<v Speaker 1>I think, so yeah, And then everything else on the show,

0:43:42.400 --> 0:43:43.959
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the only other thing people are talking about

0:43:44.040 --> 0:43:47.040
<v Speaker 1>is obviously the hurt syndicate not doing the job. But

0:43:47.080 --> 0:43:48.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, do we need to spend time on that.

0:43:48.480 --> 0:43:50.760
<v Speaker 1>I think we all knew that was gonna happen, right.

0:43:51.560 --> 0:43:53.280
<v Speaker 4>What happened at the finish of that match?

0:43:54.600 --> 0:43:55.840
<v Speaker 5>What happened at the finish?

0:43:56.200 --> 0:43:57.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, like Dak's like kicked out.

0:43:57.760 --> 0:44:00.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, I know, I don't think he kicked out. Listen,

0:44:01.320 --> 0:44:04.440
<v Speaker 1>I haven't heard anybody tell me what happened. But the

0:44:04.520 --> 0:44:08.800
<v Speaker 1>belief is that because Brodido's finish kind of looked ugly,

0:44:10.320 --> 0:44:13.640
<v Speaker 1>I think maybe the ref counted and then like Bendido

0:44:13.719 --> 0:44:15.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of got off and he was gonna do something

0:44:15.080 --> 0:44:17.640
<v Speaker 1>else because the finish looked bad, and then the ref

0:44:17.719 --> 0:44:20.560
<v Speaker 1>was like, no, just I'm gonna count. It was weird

0:44:20.600 --> 0:44:23.720
<v Speaker 1>one way or the other. But Brodido are the new champions.

0:44:24.440 --> 0:44:25.800
<v Speaker 4>So good stuff.

0:44:25.960 --> 0:44:27.239
<v Speaker 5>Back in a moment Observer.

0:44:27.000 --> 0:44:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Live, you were listening to Wrestling Observer Life with Brian

<v Speaker 2>Albarez and Mike Sempervivi on the Sports Byline Broadcasting Network.

<v Speaker 1>You know, we had so much going on today, Tom

0:44:43.080 --> 0:44:45.919
<v Speaker 1>that one of the very important things to discuss never

0:44:45.920 --> 0:44:49.640
<v Speaker 1>got discussed, which is how are you feeling? I see

0:44:49.640 --> 0:44:50.480
<v Speaker 1>you're sitting down.

0:44:51.440 --> 0:44:53.320
<v Speaker 4>Well, yeah, I just got out of I had pt

0:44:53.600 --> 0:44:57.120
<v Speaker 4>earlier this morning, so I feel a little bit better

0:44:57.200 --> 0:45:01.080
<v Speaker 4>after moving around, you know, but uh still, you know,

0:45:01.400 --> 0:45:06.080
<v Speaker 4>some swelling, some pain, but hopefully that's all stuff that's

0:45:06.160 --> 0:45:09.799
<v Speaker 4>to be expected. And uh from here it's onwards and

0:45:09.880 --> 0:45:11.520
<v Speaker 4>upwards and then outwards.

0:45:12.480 --> 0:45:16.160

<v Speaker 5>One.

0:45:22.280 --> 0:45:25.120
<v Speaker 1>Maybe on Wednesday we can talk about the return of Speed.

0:45:26.080 --> 0:45:30.319
<v Speaker 4>Oh please please thank you for saving that till the end,

0:45:30.320 --> 0:45:32.200
<v Speaker 4>because if you would have gotten into this earlier, I'm

0:45:32.200 --> 0:45:35.520
<v Speaker 4>not sure my heart could have handled the discussion about

0:45:35.760 --> 0:45:40.960
<v Speaker 4>my beloved Speed coming back. Although they didn't mention if

0:45:40.960 --> 0:45:43.080
<v Speaker 4>the men's titles coming with it, they did say.

0:45:42.960 --> 0:45:44.719
<v Speaker 1>No, I think I think the Speed titled. I think

0:45:44.760 --> 0:45:46.280
<v Speaker 1>they said the Speed titles.

0:45:47.040 --> 0:45:48.880
<v Speaker 5>Ah, so uh yeah, we.

0:45:48.960 --> 0:45:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Got we should talk about that because I got questions.
