Tonight is a w dynamite. 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:32.160 I mean a lot of matches announced for the show. 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:37.640 Get a gander of this lineup. Hair versus Hair Christ, 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:45.800 Jericho versus Ortiz. Somebody is getting shaved bald. I hear 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:49.320 Jungle Boy and Luca Source will be facing the Young 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.040 Bucks in a ladder match for the a W title. 0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:54.520 So it's no longer obviously the three way with the Hardies. 0:03:54.520 --> 0:03:57.720 They have not added another team. You know they could 0:03:57.760 --> 0:03:59.200 have added, but it wouldn't have made any sense with 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:02.080 the rankings. Everything that is the site Ol Brothers because 0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:05.400 this is in their hometown and the site OL's and 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:07.920 the ladder match would have been something else but Jungle 0:04:07.920 --> 0:04:10.240 Boy and Huge Stores versus the Young Bucks. We got 0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:15.960 Tony Storm versus Britt Baker. We have got an All 0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:21.920 Atlantic Championship qualifier. Mirror versus Ethan Page. Wardlow faces twenty 0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:26.360 security guards and a handicap elimination match. John Moxley and 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:33.080 Hiroshi Tanahashi will have a face to face and will 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:40.239 Aspray will face Dax Horwood. That sounds like quite a match, 0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:44.320 Holy smokes. So that's the lineup for Dynamite here tonight. 0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:48.039 And uh, you guys watched the show last week. Not 0:04:48.120 --> 0:04:51.400 a fan, but we'll see how it goes tonight because 0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:54.039 this is quite the lineup. Quite the lineup for the 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:57.320 show tonight. You're looking forward to it, Mike, I am 0:04:57.320 --> 0:05:02.880 looking forward to watching a bald headed geek, not Paul Jones, 0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:08.080 but Chris Jericho tonight. You losing his hair tonight? Yes? 0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:10.320 Do you want to make a bet? No? I actually 0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:14.719 have no idea, but I was just truly going to 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:18.440 be a a head shaving match because we have had 0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:21.480 way too many times in professional wrestling where they say 0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:23.680 we're going to see a bald headed geek and then 0:05:23.680 --> 0:05:25.720 we just see a little trim of hair and that's it. 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:28.320 And are we going to see just a little summer 0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:30.799 cut for Chris Jericho or will we see a bald 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:35.920 bro whoever loses needs to be bald, bald, bald, bald, 0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:39.960 not a hair on their head. Mr Clean, you cannot 0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:42.720 go back on these these two. Yeah, Kevin Nash when 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:46.320 he got his hair, that's a funny about that. It's like, bro, 0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:49.920 do you guys know anything about hair? It doesn't take 0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:53.479 that long to grow. Like if Kevin Nash wanted a 0:05:53.600 --> 0:05:59.480 nice short haircut, just like you know, buck up, shave 0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:02.920 your head and two months later you'll have your short haircut. 0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:05.040 It's not the end of the world. Dude. You can 0:06:05.120 --> 0:06:09.080 walk around with no hair. I've done it. You're going 0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:14.279 to get some angry emails, angry letters from those people 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:18.920 suffering from male pattern baldness, those people suffering and getting 0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:21.440 keeps in the mail. Why would they be mad at me. 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:23.560 I'm the one that said you can walk around with 0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:26.440 a bald head. They should be sending that to Nash 0:06:26.640 --> 0:06:29.200 because if he used to even go bald for two 0:06:29.240 --> 0:06:31.680 months after he lost a hair match, it's easy for 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:35.400 the hair to grow back for some people here. Once, 0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:38.719 once Ric Flair got his head shaved, Once Vince McMahon 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:40.560 got his head shave, did they ever look the same 0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:42.839 after that? Yeah, Vince looks exactly the same. It's the 0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:48.880 exact same hair now exactly. It's exact same pompadour he 0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:52.719 had in I'm watching the shows. Remember when that hair 0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:54.920 started growing back, he started looking like a cone head 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:56.800 for a while because he decided to have like a 0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:59.280 He decided he wanted like a modern haircut, so he 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:05.280 didn't do the old school nineteen fifties pompadour. After was like, 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:12.800 look like Elvis. Oh God, guys, over right, great balls 0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:15.000 of fire, pal let's bring it back. They probably talked 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:19.840 about Elvis being too skinny. Not at the end, then 0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:23.280 he would have said he was too fat Elvis. Elvis 0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:27.280 never had of phyzeke like theory. No, that's true. The 0:07:27.320 --> 0:07:30.040 only thing he had from professional wrestling was the ability 0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:33.880 to take tons of pills. At the end, d J, I, 0:07:33.880 --> 0:07:36.800 I disagree, Vince's hair actually recovered. It went back to 0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:40.480 what it used to be when he I disagree. I disagree. 0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:42.600 I mean he got older and everything like that. And 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:45.720 you know, somebody commissioned a study on this, because I'm 0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:48.680 telling you, neither Vince nor Rick Flair really ever looked 0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:51.360 the same once he got their head shaved. Well. Flair 0:07:51.440 --> 0:07:53.720 was losing his hair well, and he also had the 0:07:53.760 --> 0:07:56.320 face lifts and all that stuff after that. Now, Kevin Nash, 0:07:56.440 --> 0:07:59.240 was he doing that expressly because he was going to 0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:01.480 be in a movie. I think he was because he 0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:04.400 was going to be in a movie. M hmm, I'll 0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:06.480 be why you didn't get it shaved. But then again, 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:09.320 just call it a haircut match. It's not as exciting. 0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:13.240 But you guys don't believe me. Find a find a 0:08:13.240 --> 0:08:16.440 picture of events from like the last ten years, photo 0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:19.360 shop his hair onto his old face and tell me 0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:22.280 it looks any different, looks exactly the same. I would 0:08:22.360 --> 0:08:25.920 rather than photos really on this his hair onto your face. 0:08:26.080 --> 0:08:30.320 Tony Khan admitted that he put the kai bosh, that's 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:32.319 the word you look at you. You skipped over to 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.840 the thunder Rose and what thunder roses story. The fact 0:08:35.880 --> 0:08:39.200 that she denied it, she responded back to you directly. 0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:41.360 She wasn't responding to me at all. I'm not the 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:43.720 person that did the tweet saying that she's sand bag. 0:08:43.920 --> 0:08:46.480 In fact, yesterday and the show, I opened the show 0:08:46.559 --> 0:08:49.400 saying I didn't think she's sand bag? Were you here? 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:54.040 What are you talking about? Just just wanted to have 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.079 some fun with you. On the one, Tony Kan admitted 0:08:56.080 --> 0:09:00.880 he put the kai bosh on John Moxley versus Roshi Tanahashi, 0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:03.840 happening not once, but many times in the past. He 0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:06.520 said there was a backstory with how the match came 0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:08.959 to be, saying that in the past quote, I would 0:09:08.960 --> 0:09:11.040 never allow it to happen. They tried to do it 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:13.520 so many times. I've always been there to stop it 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:16.800 from happening. It's such a huge match that we had 0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:18.920 to be involved. It was going to happen, he said, 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:22.640 joking he was like Vince McMahon at Armageddon when McMahon 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:24.840 drove out to the ring in a truck to prevent 0:09:24.880 --> 0:09:28.200 the sixth way cage match from happening. How does this 0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:31.240 guy remember that kind of stuff? That when Rakishi got pushed, 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:33.040 I think he got pushed and landed in the hay. 0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:35.640 Oh my god. Yeah, that ro actually got hurt on 0:09:35.880 --> 0:09:37.319 Even though it was like they tried to keep it 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:39.680 as safe as possible, I could believe that that raw 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:42.200 that that happened the next day would have made you 0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:45.200 believe that everybody was dead that took place. That that 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:48.680 was in that match, It was just carnage. Says here 0:09:48.760 --> 0:09:53.480 that concept it's fate now is the right time for 0:09:53.559 --> 0:09:56.120 this match to take place. The two will battle over 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:59.360 the interim title. He also said he's hoping that Forbidden 0:09:59.360 --> 0:10:02.160 Door becomes an an annual event. This was in an 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:07.600 interview with Comic Book con expressed hope that the joint 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:11.880 comic book all one word between a W New Japan. 0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:14.559 Would it happen annually going forward? I think we're hoping 0:10:14.600 --> 0:10:17.360 that's what it will become, he said. Ghetto and I 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.720 generally anything that involves a W New Japan, I think 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:22.000 we're both would have to degree agree on what the 0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:24.439 matchup is and what the ideas are for the show. 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:28.040 That's good. Let's say in general, that's what we've been 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:31.000 doing for over a year now. It's worked out really well. 0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:36.240 So yeah, probably an annual Forbidden Door pay per view. 0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:39.439 I'm sure somebody, it's a hardcore New Japan supporter is 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:43.200 now getting angry and upset at Tony Khan. But why 0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:45.600 would he not want a W to be involved in 0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:47.960 something like that when one of their biggest stars who 0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:51.120 happens to be one of New Japan's biggest imports. I 0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:54.280 want to get together. So hey, look I'm happy when 0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:58.760 it's happening, right now, and I'm good with that. We 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:01.840 all last night Money Night one point seven million viewers 0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:04.760 O point four three in eighteen to forty nine, first 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:08.439 place for the night on cable. Number was down nine 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:12.439 percent in viewers. They went against Game five of the 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:18.360 never ending NBA Finals. So the interesting thing, obviously is 0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:22.839 the hourly numbers. The first hour to one eight one 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.920 million viewers, the second hour to one point seven four 0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:28.840 million viewers, and then when we main invented with a 0:11:29.080 --> 0:11:35.840 pose down one point five three million viewers. A larger 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:40.280 than normal third hour block or drop also likely the 0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:42.880 effect of the game and perhaps a lacklusser hour three. 0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:48.600 You don't say, perhaps the pose down didn't audience drops 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:51.920 from our one to three. We're thirty two percent in 0:11:51.960 --> 0:11:55.560 women eighteen to forty nine, which is huge, and the 0:11:55.640 --> 0:11:57.719 NBA would not have affected women as much as men. 0:11:57.840 --> 0:11:59.840 So you're telling me those women didn't care about the 0:12:00.040 --> 0:12:02.199 you muscle men doing a pose down, that's what you're 0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:06.440 telling me. Wow, teenage girls dropped twelve percent. You're telling 0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:10.319 me that it's possible that men aren't watching wrestling for 0:12:10.480 --> 0:12:14.520 women in skimpy outfits, and women aren't watching wrestling for men. 0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:17.840 Oiled up and posing. Are you telling me that they 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:24.720 might want more interesting? Teenage girls dropped twelve percent, teenage boys, 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:29.360 people over fift These are all of the drops. So 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:32.000 there you go. We'll see you say that. But the 0:12:32.040 --> 0:12:34.199 Tuesday night numbers will be a little bit different. I 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:37.760 assume for those I don't know what four hundred seventy 0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:41.000 thousand people are, so maybe five thousand people that will 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:43.280 be watching n next day. What I mean they'll be different? 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:47.200 Well yeah, they well guess actually they're exactly the same now. 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:50.800 But you always talk about that pervy old fan base 0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:53.800 watching n x D and now don't you know it's no, no, no, 0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:56.560 they think that. Well, actually we did have that one 0:12:56.600 --> 0:13:00.400 incidents when she talked about graduating high school. Mail popped. 0:13:00.520 --> 0:13:12.200 Anyway back in a moment Observer Live. You're listening to 0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:16.280 wrestling Observer Live with Brian Alvarez and Mike semperviv on 0:13:16.320 --> 0:13:21.880 the Sports Byline Broadcasting Network. Let's talk about n x 0:13:21.920 --> 0:13:25.439 T two point Oh already, I don't mind the show. 0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:30.320 It's wrong with the rest of you. Alright, Well, the 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:35.240 show opened up with the Creed Brothers against Molike, Blade 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:40.000 and Eddress and No fe Okay, Molly Blade is the 0:13:40.040 --> 0:13:43.200 skinny one, and Eddress and no Fie is the jacked 0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:47.199 up one. And unfortunately the skinny one is a pretty 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:51.760 good worker, he's fine. And Edressnofi is he's greener than 0:13:51.800 --> 0:13:56.880 my shirt. Oh my god. And these Creed Brothers, Dude, 0:13:57.000 --> 0:14:01.400 I love watching the Creed Brothers, you know, because it's 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:06.880 like insane. But bro, they're gonna kill somebody. God, they're 0:14:06.960 --> 0:14:10.360 just thrown these blokes around haphazardly. I would go as 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:13.480 far as to say, and uh, I mean, it was exciting, 0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:18.199 but it wasn't good. It's just an exciting, wild, violent battle. 0:14:18.679 --> 0:14:24.400 And Brutus pinned Molik Blade to win the match. We 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:28.120 had a segment backstage, very awkward meeting with indie Rock 0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:30.800 Sane and Cora Jade. Rock Sanne and Court Jade. Their 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:33.320 gimmicks are like buddies at work the indie scene. So 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:36.440 they're always referencing these random indies, but they never tell 0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:38.640 us anything about him. Remember that time in New York 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:41.760 where we uh stole my sister's car. Oh, don't talk 0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:44.920 about that story. It's like, this is a really weird gimmick. 0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:48.880 But anyway, they're gonna have a match later how he 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:53.280 had the wackiest vignette with Apolo Cruz. So Apaulo cruises 0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:56.280 in a diner and he's like writing in his journal 0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:58.360 or whatever, because I guess he goes to the diner 0:14:58.360 --> 0:15:02.440 and writes his journal, and there's some bloke who's complaining 0:15:02.480 --> 0:15:05.960 about the slow service. And unlike me, he doesn't just 0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:08.400 tweet about how the restaurant sucks. He's actually complaining to 0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:13.080 the person there. And so Apollo Cruz has his vision 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:16.080 and in the vision, he gets up and he walks 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.920 over and he says, is there a problem? And the 0:15:18.960 --> 0:15:20.760 guy goes, get out of my face? And so Paulo 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:24.880 Cruz beats his ass, and all of a sudden, Apolo's 0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:26.760 back at the table with his journal. It was a 0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:30.240 it was a dream. But then the guy is still complaining. 0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:34.880 So Poula Cruz gets up and he walks over and 0:15:34.920 --> 0:15:36.920 he says, is there a problem? And the guy goes 0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:38.640 get out of my face? And so a Polo Cruz 0:15:38.680 --> 0:15:43.080 beats his ass again. That well, obviously that's what happened. 0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:46.640 It's like, what is this? Is he nostradamus? Is he 0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:52.520 a prophet? He has visions of future beatings? This is bizarre. 0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:56.560 I'm not mean, that's exactly what happened. He's a superhero. 0:15:56.880 --> 0:15:59.880 He was having a superhero Yes, he was having a 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:03.560 turtles struggle with himself. Bro saw that whole thing happened. 0:16:03.600 --> 0:16:07.520 And you know anything about superheroes. Superheroes are there to defend. 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:13.520 The week started a fight the guy didn't you? You 0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:17.840 know what you are. You are the person that everybody 0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:21.040 hates you. I'm not you are what you put on 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:24.840 a blonde wig, Karen Wench, because you're the type a 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:27.920 person that would do that to that server at a restaurant. 0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:31.200 Now require Apollo Cruise to be the savior of the 0:16:31.240 --> 0:16:35.920 common man to I can't wait. I can't wait till 0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:39.160 the cops show up and Apolo Cruises is cuffed and 0:16:39.200 --> 0:16:41.960 they go, you beat the absolute living hell out of 0:16:42.000 --> 0:16:44.600 this guy? Why? And Apolo Cruz says, well, you know 0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:46.240 he told me to get out of his face. Well 0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:48.840 did he touch you, No, he didn't lay one finger 0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:52.440 on you. Nah, And he just talked to me. Thanks 0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:55.760 for thanks for routing for wrestling for everybody. Brian, and 0:16:55.840 --> 0:16:59.880 you like this show? Huh? Falon Henley against Tiffany Stratton, 0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:03.720 Well that was good. This was good until you know, 0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:08.240 Wendy to bounced out on a bouncing ball. She's distracted, uh, 0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:11.520 Tiffany Stretton, and she ended up getting pinned. I mean, 0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:15.600 Felon Henley and Timmty Stretton are guaranteed main roster. Don't 0:17:15.600 --> 0:17:18.359 even tell me they're not, because it's totally different with 0:17:18.400 --> 0:17:21.200 the women than the men. It's totally different. You all 0:17:21.240 --> 0:17:23.840 know that they're both gonna be stars on the main roster. 0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:26.520 It's gonna be a little different. But there's Charlotte and 0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:29.240 Sasha for you, like they are generational opponents. And I 0:17:29.240 --> 0:17:31.560 actually thought the same thing in the opener as well too, 0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:33.200 because I think the Greed brothers are gonna be there 0:17:33.200 --> 0:17:35.879 for a long time. But watching Ballade in in in 0:17:36.000 --> 0:17:39.400 o Fe, I mean, obviously I don't know where they 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:41.920 need their benchmarks to be because they've been there for 0:17:41.960 --> 0:17:44.640 a little while and and there they have itchy trigger fingers, 0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:47.320 but they seem like they have the ability to be 0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:49.800 in that system for a long time. They have a 0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:52.320 good look. They're still very young yet, so if they 0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:54.240 survive it, I can see them on the main roster 0:17:54.320 --> 0:17:57.399 for a long time too. We had a video package 0:17:57.440 --> 0:18:00.680 with the lash Legend about all of her her sporting success, 0:18:01.480 --> 0:18:03.440 which was like a it was like a good package 0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:05.600 and everything like that, but like everything that they had 0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:08.040 her name on it, it didn't say lash Legend. And 0:18:08.080 --> 0:18:09.720 then like none of it had anything to do with 0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:13.360 combat sports. It's like, man, I can't wait to see this. 0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:16.479 You know woman who was really good at basketball and running, 0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:20.120 the woman was professional wrestling matches, who was really good 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:22.520 at finishing second in track and field. And I'm not 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:24.320 throwing that under the bus, but it's like it is 0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:26.879 kind of funny where it's like she's not like she 0:18:27.000 --> 0:18:29.640 was an SEC champion or anything grant and she's got 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:32.919 some basketball cache to fall back on. But it's like 0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:36.600 I was second in in in this track and field competition. 0:18:36.680 --> 0:18:38.800 I'm coming here to take over a new sport. It's 0:18:38.840 --> 0:18:42.960 like to what finished second? Wesley beat Zion Quinn, Yes, 0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:45.919 he pinned him. I don't know if this bodes well 0:18:46.000 --> 0:18:49.840 for rolls. Zion Quinn. Well, we had the Diade versus 0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:55.280 Dante Chin and Javier Javier bern All and uh the 0:18:55.400 --> 0:18:59.080 Diade they wrestled in their monk outfits or their druids 0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:01.040 or whatever. I said, you need to explain who the 0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:04.720 diet is, and the fans are chanting show your face 0:19:04.800 --> 0:19:07.160 or something like that. It's Joe Casey's two hooded guys. 0:19:07.200 --> 0:19:10.359 It's probably the grizzled Young Vats, but burgundy robes. They're 0:19:10.359 --> 0:19:14.840 wrestling in in robes now. So Tony d' angelo did 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:17.640 a promotion video oh yea and Nikita Lions went as well. 0:19:18.320 --> 0:19:21.720 The Lion's gonna roar again soon. Everybody Tony de' angelo 0:19:21.800 --> 0:19:24.400 with Stacks and two times. So if you're wondering what's 0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:27.840 up with two dimes, here, they tape like three weeks 0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:30.280 of shows or something like that, so I guess they 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:32.480 just decided, you know, he'll be on the show until 0:19:32.600 --> 0:19:36.760 we tape again and then he's gone. So he rewards 0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:41.080 them all with watches, and Santos Escobard's crew is there 0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:43.640 and they're all upset, and then Carmelo Hayes and Trick 0:19:43.680 --> 0:19:47.200 Williams come out and essentially this leads to a tag 0:19:47.280 --> 0:19:50.280 match for the main events Stacks and two Dimes against 0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:58.919 Hayes and Williams. Bron Breaker just pummeled Duke Kudson in 0:19:59.000 --> 0:20:05.600 a beautiful, all fantastic Goldberg style violent destructive match I 0:20:05.640 --> 0:20:08.320 loved it. Bro, you gotta do this now for a 0:20:08.320 --> 0:20:11.480 while to get braun Breaker back to where he was before. 0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:14.640 You practically ruined this guy with Joe Gazy. This guy 0:20:14.840 --> 0:20:17.760 was so awesome in this match, and he killed this 0:20:17.840 --> 0:20:21.360 poor Duke Hudson fast and it was awesome. And then 0:20:21.440 --> 0:20:26.639 Cameron Grimes comes out and challenges braun Breaker, and uh, 0:20:26.680 --> 0:20:28.679 I know people were upset about this because Grimes was 0:20:28.760 --> 0:20:30.760 mentioning his father. I didn't have a problem with it. 0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:33.840 He was just pointing out, like, you know, everybody knows 0:20:33.960 --> 0:20:36.880 about you because of your father. Everybody knows your dad. 0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:39.439 He's a Hall of Famer, but nobody knows my dad. 0:20:39.640 --> 0:20:42.360 And his dad actually was a protesting promoter, and so 0:20:42.720 --> 0:20:44.879 he's unhappy about that. He wants a championship match. So 0:20:44.920 --> 0:20:49.720 it's taking place at the Great American Bash. We had 0:20:49.960 --> 0:20:55.760 the debut of Giovanni Vinci. It is the former Fabian Eichner. 0:20:55.840 --> 0:20:58.000 He's a great worker. I don't know if this has 0:20:58.040 --> 0:21:03.000 added one smidgen of charisma to him, but he is 0:21:03.080 --> 0:21:04.840 a and I can't figure out I think he's supposed 0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:07.359 to be a heel, but you know, he's a great 0:21:07.760 --> 0:21:11.439 fiery baby face is Giovanni Vinci, So hopefully they figured 0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:14.520 that out. But he beat Guru Raj. You look great 0:21:14.800 --> 0:21:19.520 and that was good. We had uh this guys remember 0:21:19.680 --> 0:21:26.000 years ago when uh Carlino was lazy in real life, 0:21:26.000 --> 0:21:28.479 he was lazy, and so I guess they decided one 0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:31.159 day they're gonna have Rick Flair kind of promo on 0:21:31.200 --> 0:21:34.840 this bloke in a backstage segment and Rick Flair freaking 0:21:34.960 --> 0:21:39.200 buried this dude. He just buried him six ft under 0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:44.800 about being lazy and bro First off, that promo was fantastic. 0:21:45.200 --> 0:21:48.640 This was the exact same promo dress and no fe 0:21:48.640 --> 0:21:52.160 and Molik Blade you know. Uh. Molik's kind of depressed 0:21:52.160 --> 0:21:54.160 that they lost and and just was like, dude, we'll 0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:56.639 get another shot. Wins and losses. They come and go 0:21:56.800 --> 0:21:59.960 let's go to the club. And Cameron Grimes watched Black 0:22:00.000 --> 0:22:02.160 Stuff and he's like, what's up? What are you guys going? 0:22:02.440 --> 0:22:04.320 Oh we're going to the club. Oh yeah, yeah, what 0:22:04.480 --> 0:22:08.080 you know? What about tonight? You know, we'll get another shot. 0:22:08.480 --> 0:22:14.560 Grames goes, will you and he buried these two? What 0:22:14.600 --> 0:22:17.840 are you doing leaving this show? Early? Look at you? 0:22:17.840 --> 0:22:20.760 You you're you're built like a statue. You could be 0:22:20.800 --> 0:22:24.080 one of the biggest stars in its entire company. But 0:22:24.200 --> 0:22:28.280 here you are leaving the show early. You lost tonight 0:22:28.640 --> 0:22:30.560 and you ain't even worried about it, and you're going 0:22:30.600 --> 0:22:34.480 to the club. And uh, it was actually really good 0:22:34.720 --> 0:22:37.320 because Enters and No Faith was like, he was so 0:22:37.400 --> 0:22:41.000 awesome reacting to Cameron Grimes burying him because he's just 0:22:41.240 --> 0:22:44.680 shut up and he's all looking around, He's all this 0:22:44.760 --> 0:22:48.000 was a great segment. So I don't know where it's leading. 0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:51.240 I don't know if Grimes is turning heel because he 0:22:51.280 --> 0:22:52.879 was kind of a you know, a jerk about it, 0:22:52.920 --> 0:22:55.520 but he was it was to tell the truth. So uh, 0:22:56.200 --> 0:22:58.560 this was a great segment. Hey, wherever they're going. The 0:22:58.600 --> 0:23:02.880 evolution of of Grimes is needed right about now. So 0:23:02.920 --> 0:23:05.800 I've taken wherever they go. And then finally we had 0:23:06.040 --> 0:23:10.200 Carmela Hayes Trick Williams against Stacks and two times and 0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:15.280 it was all right, God bless uh Trick Williams, but 0:23:15.400 --> 0:23:21.879 he's he's very green, and uh, anyway, Hayes with the 0:23:22.240 --> 0:23:28.000 pin and then D'Angelo came out and yelled at Legato 0:23:28.080 --> 0:23:30.960 del phantasma, and then the mide of it was Roxanne 0:23:30.960 --> 0:23:33.959 Perez Corp Jada Indie Heartwell versus Toxic Attraction in a 0:23:34.040 --> 0:23:38.960 six person match. Also okay, it absolutely depended on who 0:23:39.000 --> 0:23:40.960 was in there. If the right people were in there, 0:23:41.040 --> 0:23:43.320 it was fine. If the wrong people were in there, 0:23:43.680 --> 0:23:46.439 it was not good. And then at the end, I 0:23:46.440 --> 0:23:49.359 don't know what happened, but Cora Jade comes off the 0:23:49.400 --> 0:23:52.920 top with the sent on and she lands on g 0:23:53.160 --> 0:23:57.560 Dolan and do Gi starts screaming and the ref goes 0:23:57.640 --> 0:24:01.800 over to her, and uh, I think it was rock 0:24:01.840 --> 0:24:04.120
