WEBVTT - New WWE Names/RAW Preview 0:00:00.280 --> 0:00:02.840 Hey, this is Brian Alvarez and this is today's edition 0:00:02.840 --> 0:00:08.039 of the Wrestling Observer Daily podcast on the eight Side Network. Ready, 0:00:09.720 --> 0:00:14.800 let's get it all. How's it going, everybody. Brian Alvarez 0:00:14.960 --> 0:00:18.160 here on Wrestling Observer Live. We are here every day 0:00:18.200 --> 0:00:21.439 Monday through Friday, New Pacific three Eastern, Sunday three Pacific 0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:27.280 sixth Eastern. Yes, I am back after an exciting someone 0:00:27.320 --> 0:00:30.200 here says, uh, vacation. I guess I was sort of 0:00:30.240 --> 0:00:35.520 on vacation, but it was a working vacation. Man, Look 0:00:35.560 --> 0:00:39.280 at me. I'm tired. Hey, we got a lot to 0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:43.720 get into here today because I desperately try to wake up. 0:00:45.240 --> 0:00:50.199 But watching New Japan, I watched Filthy Tom and Uh 0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:54.880 and Eugene Nagata Holy Smokes, and I was in the 0:00:54.960 --> 0:00:58.640 middle of the Suzukiyashiti match when I had to I 0:00:58.640 --> 0:01:01.959 had to do this show. So we'll review as much 0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:04.080 as we can on the Filthy Town Lawler show coming 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:07.039 up at two Pacific five Eastern. But today we'll get 0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:09.280 into all of the news. Tonight, of course, is Monday 0:01:09.360 --> 0:01:11.800 Night Raw, and you know how it goes with this 0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:14.360 Raw show. They've announced a bunch of stuff we'll find 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:18.560 out what actually airs. We've got allegedly two championship matches, 0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:21.880 unless of course, somebody ends up in protocol at the 0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:25.520 last second. We've got a light detector test, and we 0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:29.320 have got a double wedding, two weddings going on at 0:01:29.319 --> 0:01:31.360 the same time, so I'll give me the lineup for 0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:33.120 that show tonight. We've got the update on Ring of 0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:37.839 Honor on Sinclair. Ring of Honor on Sinclair is no more. 0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:42.800 They they're done, and so we'll see if this coming 0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:47.280 Wednesday on the A W Show, we'll see if the 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:51.280 big announcement by Tony Kahn has to do with streaming, 0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:53.120 because one would think that maybe it should have something 0:01:53.120 --> 0:01:55.600 to do with streaming, because a Ring of Honor needs 0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:58.040 a deal of some sort. They're actually signing a bunch 0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:00.600 of wrestlers. They get a lot of wrestlers on the contract. 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:04.160 They just they just signed their champion in fact, and 0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:06.320 they have no television, so we'll have to figure out 0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:09.760 what they're gonna do there. We have new names, new 0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:12.560 w w E names. That's always fun. You know, A 0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:14.239 couple of people have Nancy to change her name is 0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:15.920 probably more to come. I'll tell you why. What the 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:19.760 new names are neither of which is an improvement, and 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:21.960 much much more so. Stick around, everybody back in a 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:46.800 moment Wrestling Observer Live. R uh huh back here on 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:50.280 the show. Right now? Is here Wrestling Observer alive? And 0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:55.600 I don't see Mike semperviv anywhere? Where is this guy? 0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:01.160 How goes everybody Live radio? Well, we'll send him his 0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:05.240 friendly you know how it goes every every couple of weeks. 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:08.480 We've got to send Mica, you know, wake up? Text 0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:14.840 says right here, simple microphone turned off. Mhm, probably love 0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:18.320 turn that on. Money Alright, Well, let's let's get going 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:23.200 here while we figure this out. He just sent me, 0:03:23.320 --> 0:03:27.120 uh some profanity, so he's awake. I still know where 0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:32.320 he's at. So anyway, okay, going with Adam. All right, 0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:34.200 here we go. We got a lot to uh. Mike 0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:38.720 says he can see and hear me. Mike, can you 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:40.640 hear me? Okay, now we can hear you. But where's 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:44.160 your video? Buddy? I have no idea, dude. Thanks for 0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:48.280 amuting me though or whatever. It was, all right, try reconnecting. 0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:52.000 Jared said, I shall, man, what an exciting show we 0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:55.560 have every day for you people. It's Monday minutes and 0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:59.720 minutes of absolutely nothing happening. Alright, well, let's get into 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:02.760 the news and then we'll figure out Mike's video here, 0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:06.280 or we'll just make him a giraffe again. So tonight's Raw. 0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:10.320 We've got four things announced for the show, and only 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:15.160 two of them are wrestling matches, although they're both championship matches. 0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:18.880 We have Sasha Banks and Naomi versus Rea Ripley and 0:04:19.000 --> 0:04:22.560 Live Morgan for the women's tag team titles. And obviously 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.119 they were going to do this match a week ago, 0:04:26.680 --> 0:04:30.880 but Ria Ripley was and I quote, in protocol and 0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:33.240 so she was unable to do the match. She is 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:37.560 now out of protocol because she appeared and wrestled in 0:04:37.600 --> 0:04:40.760 fact on SmackDown, So unless somebody else ends up in 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:44.920 protocol tonight, the match will actually be taken place. So 0:04:45.000 --> 0:04:47.520 that's for the women's tag team titles. We have Finn 0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:51.679 Balor defending the United States Championship match. Tell your friends 0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:58.960 about this one. Finn Valor will be facing Theory because 0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:04.240 it can't be Austin theory anymore. He must be Theory. 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:08.400 So Finnbeller will be facing Theory for the United States Championship. 0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:12.919 And then we have Kevin Owens administering a lie detector 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:18.000 test on Ezekiel, and then we will have the double 0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:22.480 wedding of Dana Brooke and Reggie and Tamina, and a 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:26.000 cure to Zawa. So we've got a double wedding, a 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:32.280 light detector test, and to championship matches. And I believe Mike, 0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:39.360 we have once again lost. Like cemper vv, I'm just 0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:41.560 gonna mute everything for now. I'm gonna continue on and 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:44.360 we'll figure this out in the next segment. So as 0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:51.880 as noted here, uh, Austin theory is no longer Austin 0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:56.880 theory because what happened was Vince McMahon, seventy six year 0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:58.839 old Vince McMahon. He woke up one day and he decided, 0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:03.600 how do I want's names? No real names? And so 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:07.000 this course does not apply to everybody. It's I forget 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:09.919 the name that Dave used in the Observer, but Randy 0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:12.000 Oran's not gonna wake up tomorrow and get a new name. 0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:15.640 But if you're you know, some random person or whatever, 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:19.920 this could apply to you. So because Austin theories real 0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:24.280 his his real name is not Austin theory, okay, but 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:31.040 his real first name is Austin, so therefore he can't 0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:35.800 use his real first name as part of his fake 0:06:35.960 --> 0:06:39.800 full name, so he can no longer be Austin Theory. 0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:42.880 He just has to be Theory. Or you know, they 0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:45.039 could have given him a new first name. They could 0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:48.880 have just decided, you know, we'll call him Frank Theory. 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:53.720 But they decided we'll just call him Theory. So that's 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:58.119 why Marcel Bartel has a new name, because apparently that's 0:06:58.120 --> 0:07:02.839 actually his name, is Marcel Bartel. Vaulter's real name was Vaulter, 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:06.440 so now he must be Guntherer because that's not his 0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:10.160 real name. And then we now have the name changes 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:16.960 for two n XT wrestlers. Kaylee Ray is now going 0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:22.720 to be Alba Fire f y r E Alba Fire. 0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:27.880 And this one's my favorite. They are changing the name 0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:32.080 of Casey catan Zaro. Okay, Casey caton Zaro is no 0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:38.600 longer Casey caton Zaro. She is now Katana Chance. I 0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:41.720 guess because she takes a lot of chances or something. 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:46.840 Katana Chance is the new name of of Casey caton Zaro. 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:52.480 And I was thinking about this the other day, and 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:54.000 I don't know if you guys know this about Casey 0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:56.240 caton Zaro. But she was an American Ninja Warrior and 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:58.360 she was, like, you know, really popular on that show, 0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:03.720 and they saw her and they signed her and they 0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:06.840 gave her spots out of American Ninja Warrior, like she 0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:10.920 climbs the ring post to get into the ring. But 0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:13.920 now they're going to change her name. She's no longer 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:20.480 Casey canton Zaro because I mean, when you think about it, 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:24.080 it's not like calling her Casey canton Zaro you're gonna 0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:26.360 do like huge business or anything like that. It honestly 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:29.640 doesn't matter, Like you're not gonna get new fans because 0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:32.800 American Ninja Warriors Casey caton Zaro is in w w E. 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:35.000 But it is funny that you go out of your 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:39.280 way to hire somebody out of American Ninja Warrior and 0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:44.640 then we must change her name. It's like, you know, 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:46.640 the Creed Brothers, as we mentioned, you know, they all 0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:50.120 they do is talk about the accolades of the Creed Brothers, 0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:54.600 but that's not actually their their names. They have they 0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:57.080 have names, so they actually got all of those accolades 0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:00.360 under and so so there you go so many way. 0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:03.439 She could no longer be case of Catain's arum. So 0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:05.960 all of that, you know, what's the point. She's Katana Chance, 0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:09.120 and there's gonna be probably others that have to change 0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:11.920 their names as well as a result of this decree, 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:16.160 which I'm sure will you know not last forever, Raquel 0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:20.480 Gonzalez had to change her name to Raquel Rodriguez because 0:09:20.840 --> 0:09:24.160 Gonzalez is her actual last name. So all I can 0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:29.280 think of is that, you know, Vince's Vince's concerned. Presumably, Oh, 0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:33.040 Raoul Mendoz also now Cruise del Toro, He's no longer 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:38.560 Raoul Mendoza, So presumably Vince's concern is that, well, you know, 0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:43.040 if Austin Theory leaves w W E to go to 0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:46.920 a W, he can't be Austin Theory, but he could 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:51.600 be Austin. Well, we can't have that, so we have 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:54.840 to take away everything from them that is real that 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:58.400 they could therefore then use elsewhere. Obviously, if you're a 0:09:59.040 --> 0:10:01.480 Matt Riddle, you know you're not gonna have to change 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:03.640 your last name. I don't think I guess we could, 0:10:03.720 --> 0:10:05.240 you know, turn on the show tonight. He's got a 0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:09.360 new name. But that's his new decree for the n 0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.199 x T folks, the folks being called up to the 0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:15.960 main roster, no real names, not even a real first name, 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:22.600 and a fake lass name or a whatever. So it's Vince. 0:10:22.840 --> 0:10:26.920 It doesn't it honestly doesn't matter. But it is one 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:30.040 of those Vince things that I must ridicule on air 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:34.720 because it's ridiculous. Are you back now, Mike? All right? 0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:38.280 We got audio and video from Mike here that is 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:41.040 very Vince. By the way, And why did Riddle have 0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:45.240 to change his first name? Why did they drop that one? Well? Uh, 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:48.360 the reason that they originally dropped his first name was 0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:53.840 because they were and this is another funny one, they 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:58.720 didn't want people to google Matthew Riddle's name and find 0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:00.640 out that he had had all of the issues with 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:06.160 weed in UFC. And so I guess in Vince's brain 0:11:06.320 --> 0:11:10.840 because he's seventy six, well, if remove his first name, 0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:15.320 they won't be able to find any information about him. 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:19.680 Never mind the fact that if you google W. W. E. Riddle, 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:22.880 his whole name comes up in his Wikipedia and everything 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:26.000 about his own entire life. But that was Vince's that 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:28.880 was his solution to h And then, of course, nowadays 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:31.960 you know now you may as well give him his 0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:35.160 name back, because now they're they're embracing the whole weed 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:41.600 thing on SmackDown, Uh, grasshoppers. Remember he used to jump 0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:43.480 in the air and kick his shoes off and and 0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:46.600 birds would fly out or whatever. Well, on SmackDown it 0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:49.679 was it was grasshoppers. And so they were making all 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:54.320 these these comments about grass because now it's like a 0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:57.240 gimmick that they they're weed smokers. Him and Randy Orton 0:11:57.280 --> 0:12:01.440 are friends in weed. But before they decided that that 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:03.600 was okay, they didn't want people finding about all of 0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:06.160 this weed, and so they thought the solution was to 0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:09.040 get rid of his first name. Then we will know 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:10.800 it'll be able to find out anything about this Matt 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:14.520 Riddle if we just call him Riddle, they'll google and 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:19.199 find something about Batman. Back after the break Observer Live, 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:44.880 you know somebody that Chad during the break noted that 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:48.040 I might have my timeline Rock. There was concern that 0:12:48.320 --> 0:12:50.880 people would find out about who met Riddle in his 0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:54.120 weed issues. But I think it actually might have been 0:12:54.160 --> 0:12:56.080 when he was having his legal issues that they dropped 0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:59.439 the Matt Matt part, because you know, you dropped that 0:12:59.480 --> 0:13:01.400 Matt and you just can't find information about the guy. 0:13:01.559 --> 0:13:04.520 He's he's a ghost once he dropped his his first name. 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:07.920 And this may be a story for another day in 0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:12.120 the future. But Gable Stevenson keeps his name. Yeah, he's 0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:13.679 He's get to keep his name for the time being, 0:13:13.760 --> 0:13:17.640 but not his brother. His brother has to change his name. 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:22.040 The brother of Gable Stevenson has to have a new name. 0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:24.800 I hope they acknowledges his brother, but that he's got 0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:28.080 a totally different name. And by the way, somebody brought 0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:29.840 up to me it is a great it's a great point. 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:35.240 By the way, shouldn't Kevin Owens be going all over 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:39.840 this company both you know, Ross SmackDown and n x 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:42.960 T and given light detectors to all these people that 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:45.920 are having these new names. Now where is he on SmackDown? 0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:48.720 When uh, you know, Raquel Gonzalez shows up, she got 0:13:48.760 --> 0:13:52.400 a new name, and that his whole issue with with 0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:55.960 with Ezekiel. No, no, no, it's not about the name. 0:13:56.040 --> 0:13:59.240 It's about the fact that that he believes that Ezekiel 0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:01.679 is a lie is and that Elias is not just 0:14:01.880 --> 0:14:05.080 faking his own name. But you know, these other people 0:14:05.760 --> 0:14:08.400 like Butch, you know, Pat McAfee brings up you know, 0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:10.840 he sneaks in their line about calling him Pete and 0:14:11.120 --> 0:14:15.000 how he knows these mistake. Well, but you know, whereas like, 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:17.800 you know, it's kind of noted that these people that 0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:20.000 they are who they are, they just have new names. 0:14:20.040 --> 0:14:22.600 Whereas you know, Elias is just saying, no, I never 0:14:22.640 --> 0:14:26.120 existed at all, I am Ezekiel. Well that's only because 0:14:26.240 --> 0:14:29.480 Ezekiel has stated that he is his own brother. I mean, 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:33.320 for all I know this, uh whatever, Marcel Bartel's real 0:14:33.400 --> 0:14:36.960 name is Ludvig Kaiser. For all I know, he's saying 0:14:37.000 --> 0:14:40.160 he's he's the brother of Marcel Bartel. We don't know. 0:14:40.560 --> 0:14:44.240 He's been busy doing promos. Raquel has never explained she 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:46.320 was a former n x T champion. She's just showed 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:49.120 up with a new name. Maybe she's pretending to be 0:14:49.160 --> 0:14:53.800 her own sister. Maybe that's gonna be like Ezekiel is 0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:56.760 just the first, and like there's gonna be a whole 0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:59.360 bunch of wrestlers that show up and they're actually their 0:14:59.360 --> 0:15:02.480 own sib links. There's gonna be an army of siblings. 0:15:03.960 --> 0:15:06.560 This is the This is the worst Luca Underground remake 0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:11.480 I've ever dumb or anything else. We're gonna have a 0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:15.120 Katana chance show up and say I'm actually the sister 0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:18.240 of the famous Casey Kennon Zara from American Ninja Warrior. 0:15:18.440 --> 0:15:21.120 She quit, but I'm her twin and I'm gonna do 0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:23.200 all of her spots and everything like that. But I 0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:26.320 got a different name, and oddly enough a different last 0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:30.600 name as well. Alba Fire, Alba Fire, Alba fare. Guys, 0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:36.920 remember Kaylee ray Quit, I'm her sister, Alba Fire. Bunch 0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:40.680 of sisters and brothers gonna form a faction really is 0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:44.080 like shaken up in the name generator and just okay, 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:48.320 what do we got here? Alba Fire? Is that a name? Fire? 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:52.720 Alba Alba Fire? Sure? Why not? Alba Fire? Maybe it 0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:56.080 means something to her, because I know apparently people have 0:15:56.200 --> 0:15:58.960 input into some of the names that they are going 0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:01.920 to be called sometimes times. Um so if this means 0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:05.240 something to her, I apologize for poking fun at it. 0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:10.600 But Alba Fire, you know, I I've told the story before, 0:16:10.720 --> 0:16:15.000 but when I used to write the Breaking Cafe here, 0:16:15.400 --> 0:16:19.280 the Frank A Gotch Flying Mayor Wrestling newsletter for Figure 0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:22.040 four Weekly, some of those around here there would always 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.920 be there, always be, you know, a quote from some rando, 0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:27.080 and so I had to get these. I had to 0:16:27.120 --> 0:16:29.680 get a name for the rando. And so, you know, 0:16:29.720 --> 0:16:34.120 back then we had phone books. A few youngsters know 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:37.320 what a phone book is, which, by the way, remind 0:16:37.360 --> 0:16:39.080 me I got another story time. But anyway, they had 0:16:39.080 --> 0:16:40.920 a phone book, and you would open the phone book 0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:42.880 and would it would have everyone's you know, they talk 0:16:42.920 --> 0:16:46.440 about doxing. Nowadays you could just open the phone book 0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:49.720 and get everyone's phone number and address. I got to 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:53.480 school with you know what I actually did, Chris Walla. 0:16:53.960 --> 0:16:56.080 Oh just look in the phone book. Oh, there's Chris 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:58.800 Wallace's name and address and phone numbers right there in 0:16:58.840 --> 0:17:01.600 the phone book. Should have called it the docks book. 0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:05.119 But anyway, so I didn't want to use anyone's actual name, Like, 0:17:05.160 --> 0:17:06.679 I didn't open the thing and go, oh, you know, 0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:10.760 here's a you know, Frank mayor or whatever, because you 0:17:10.800 --> 0:17:13.119 know he might be a reader. So I would I 0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:16.240 would get a first name from some person and a 0:17:16.320 --> 0:17:18.960 random last name from another person, and I would combine 0:17:19.000 --> 0:17:21.040 those together and it would come up with the name 0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:23.560 of the person doing the quote. And uh, it was 0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:26.520 exactly like these NX team names. It was just I 0:17:26.520 --> 0:17:28.840 don't know what it is. But like when you hear 0:17:28.880 --> 0:17:32.600 someone's real name, like Mike simper Viv, it just seems 0:17:32.640 --> 0:17:35.000 like that's like a real name, because it is. But 0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:38.800 for some reason, if I took your first name and 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:43.879 Jim Valley's last name and I said debuting tonight, Mike Valley, 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:46.800 that just sounds weird. Or hey, you know what's gonna 0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:50.240 show up tonight, Jim simper Viv. You're like, who is 0:17:50.400 --> 0:17:54.480 what a stupid name? But anyway, that's all these names 0:17:54.480 --> 0:17:56.679 are just they don't roll off the tongue. They just 0:17:56.720 --> 0:18:01.680 sound weird. Alba fire Cut on a chance and even 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:04.480 briant look even in in the Flying Mirror and in 0:18:04.880 --> 0:18:08.200 the Onion, which would be another great use of doing 0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:11.040 something like that with the fake quotes with somebody's name 0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:14.840 attached to him, they sound like real names. And I 0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:17.640 know there's a lot of wacky names out there. There's 0:18:17.680 --> 0:18:21.560 a lot of unique and different names and names rooted 0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:25.679 in culture that you know, I'm not familiar with. So 0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:28.199 there's a lot of names out there that are you know, 0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:32.320 like but like with w W E, they either they 0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:36.960 come across so generic, like isis Nile? I thought that's 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:39.680 kind of a cool name. Maybe you look at Ivy Nile. 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:41.359 I'm sorry, Like I thought that was kind of a 0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:45.800 cool name. But then it's like Alba Fire, I don't 0:18:45.840 --> 0:18:48.879 know how great that sounds. Katana Chance sounds like somebody 0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:51.000 out of a video game, and it's like it doesn't 0:18:51.840 --> 0:18:54.280 I don't know, it just doesn't ever really serve the 0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:58.080 kind of fit with w E. I mean, the Butch thing, 0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:00.840 because of the character he's playing makes sense. It's just 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:04.080 why did you have to rename him Butch? Why couldn't 0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:06.120 he be I don't know. But then again, we've been 0:19:06.200 --> 0:19:09.240 this has been a w w E slash F thing 0:19:09.400 --> 0:19:14.240 since three since you know, forever. You know, actually even 0:19:14.280 --> 0:19:17.440 before that. Look, people would go to work for Vince 0:19:17.520 --> 0:19:20.919 McMahon's father and he would change their names. Hulk Hogan 0:19:21.119 --> 0:19:24.040 used not Terry Boulder. We wanted the Irish guy, so 0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:26.480 it ended up being you know, whole Hogan. So this 0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:29.600 is again, this is what they do. It's in their 0:19:29.680 --> 0:19:32.320 DNA to do. It's just come a cup with some 0:19:32.400 --> 0:19:35.080 better names that kind of fit, and yeah, roll off 0:19:35.080 --> 0:19:37.720 the tongue and seem a little more marketable. I guess 0:19:38.040 --> 0:19:39.440 I'll get back to the news in a second. I 0:19:39.520 --> 0:19:41.520 just gotta tell the story real quick. So the other day, 0:19:41.520 --> 0:19:45.320 we're in California and uh we we went to uh 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:48.800 the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and then we went to eat 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:50.480 and there was just this little hole in the wall 0:19:50.520 --> 0:19:55.080 place called American Burger, that's what it was called. And 0:19:55.240 --> 0:19:59.159 everybody that worked there was Mexican, and uh they played 0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:01.840 Mexican music. It was like the weirdest thing, but they 0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:06.639 only and then they wanted chicken nuggets and they were 0:20:06.640 --> 0:20:08.480 the exact same ones that we get from Costco, the 0:20:08.520 --> 0:20:11.520 Dino nuggets, exactly the same. So I like the place, 0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:16.320 but it's called American Burger, and so on all of 0:20:16.359 --> 0:20:20.560 the walls there's like, you know, here's the Beatles, and uh, 0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:23.480 here's some you know, records and whatever like that. And 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:27.880 they got some antique stuff in there, and I said, uh, Paisley, 0:20:27.880 --> 0:20:29.280 when you're done eating, I'm gonna go show you what 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:30.800 some of this stuff is. I'm gonna explain. I was 0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:32.399 gonna explain to her what like a record was and 0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:35.000 everything like that, because she just all she knows is, oh, 0:20:35.040 --> 0:20:37.159 I want to listen to Coca melon just played on 0:20:37.200 --> 0:20:40.439 your phone. To know know what life was like, you know, 0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:44.320 back in the day. So we're looking around and and uh, 0:20:44.400 --> 0:20:47.440 and there's a there's an old TV, a cathode ray TV, 0:20:47.560 --> 0:20:51.760 the big square TV. And uh, I said, you know 0:20:51.840 --> 0:20:54.320 that is right, and she looks at it. She goes 0:20:57.080 --> 0:21:03.960 an oven, said, she goes, it's an oven. It's like 0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:09.080 a microwave oven. A television. She had no idea what 0:21:09.160 --> 0:21:13.240 a television was, an old school of television. I video 0:21:13.280 --> 0:21:15.320 I took a video of because it was just so preposterous. 0:21:15.359 --> 0:21:18.520 I should put it on the internet. And Oven, oh 0:21:18.560 --> 0:21:23.320 my god, I don't even bother explaining the record after that. 0:21:23.600 --> 0:21:26.240 You don't even know what a television is. Kid, I 0:21:26.280 --> 0:21:30.159 can't explain a record. And she's she's young. Avery. We 0:21:30.440 --> 0:21:32.760 a couple of years ago went to the Mayflower Hotel 0:21:32.760 --> 0:21:34.600 in d C. And they have a lot of nice, 0:21:35.040 --> 0:21:37.440 really nice sitting areas in there. And in one part 0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:39.840 of it, I took a picture because it's Avery on 0:21:39.960 --> 0:21:44.479 his phone on his iPhone looking over at a rotary phone, 0:21:44.720 --> 0:21:49.240 just completely baffled, just baffled, new was a phone, just like, okay, 0:21:49.240 --> 0:21:51.520 what do you do here? Why are these letters? What 0:21:51.880 --> 0:21:54.520 is going on here? And just had no clue on 0:21:54.520 --> 0:21:56.560 how to work it showed him. It was like, yeah, okay, 0:21:56.560 --> 0:21:59.200 well that makes sense now. But it's like, so let 0:21:59.200 --> 0:22:00.760 me get this straight. You would click it and it 0:22:00.800 --> 0:22:04.000 would make that yes, yes. And then his grandmother told 0:22:04.080 --> 0:22:05.879 him about the you know back in the day of 0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:09.080 k L M. Dash that was a phone number four 0:22:09.160 --> 0:22:12.040 or five seven, and yeah, that really blew his mind. 0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:14.400 Yeah we're old, Brian, this is what's going on here, 0:22:14.840 --> 0:22:18.760 Suttenham singed in an interview, and he said that he 0:22:18.840 --> 0:22:21.360 chose to sign with a W over w w E 0:22:21.760 --> 0:22:24.440 in order to make history for Indian wrestlers. In the promotion, 0:22:24.840 --> 0:22:27.399 he said, I had given trials for w w E 0:22:27.520 --> 0:22:29.200 as well and I liked it very much as well. 0:22:29.200 --> 0:22:32.000 And I liked a W as well. A W is 0:22:32.080 --> 0:22:34.440 brand new. It's only been a couple of years right, 0:22:34.600 --> 0:22:37.240 and it's really fire. I thought that if I go 0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:40.600 to a W I would be the first again first 0:22:40.680 --> 0:22:44.400 wrestler from India. I will make another history for India 0:22:44.520 --> 0:22:47.320 in a e W. He said, it would be amazing 0:22:47.400 --> 0:22:49.280 to go to w w E, but they already have 0:22:49.320 --> 0:22:52.200 Indian people over there, they have Indian wrestlers. Why don't 0:22:52.200 --> 0:22:54.760 I go start where? There are no Indian guys and 0:22:54.880 --> 0:22:58.680 create history again after reaching there. So anyway, that's why 0:22:58.680 --> 0:23:01.280 he chose to go there. And I talked about this 0:23:01.320 --> 0:23:03.560 on the Brinon Van Show and Observer Radio last night. 0:23:04.160 --> 0:23:06.680 I know, everyone hated his debut and the lights out 0:23:06.760 --> 0:23:09.719 and the fans are baffled, and you know, we had 0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:14.840 the people which wasn't It wasn't good, don't get me wrong, 0:23:15.440 --> 0:23:18.639 but it wasn't the worst thing. Now, with that said, 0:23:19.000 --> 0:23:22.760 on the Battle of the Belt show, after the Jonathan 0:23:22.760 --> 0:23:27.160 Gresham match, Suttenham Sing showed up and he went down 0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:30.080 to the ring and he beat up Gresham and he 0:23:30.200 --> 0:23:34.159 beat up the boys. And I thought the guy, I 0:23:34.240 --> 0:23:36.800 was impressed, not like he was he was you know, 0:23:37.560 --> 0:23:40.919 the bars low. I just saw Omas have a horrible 0:23:40.920 --> 0:23:43.480 match at WrestleMania and everything like that. But I mean 0:23:43.640 --> 0:23:48.240 everything he did it looked good. Nothing looked bad. He 0:23:48.320 --> 0:23:50.320 didn't have to sell, which is like the big thing 0:23:50.359 --> 0:23:53.080 that these giants have a problem with. But like he looked, 0:23:53.200 --> 0:23:58.360 you know, dominating, and he had charisma and he had 0:23:58.440 --> 0:24:02.240 a personality, and I thought it was like a great 0:24:02.280 --> 0:24:05.000 little segment there. So I don't know what everyone else thought, 0:24:05.040 --> 0:24:06.919 but I was very impressed with Sutton. I'm sinking back 0:24:06.920 --> 0:24:21.520
