He was cutting an unheard promo. 43 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 2: As he walks down the ramp, he's like, you couldn't 44 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 2: hear what he's saying. He's just mouthing all these things. 45 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 2: And he's like, pat and just like, I've been here. 46 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,239 Speaker 2: I've been here the whole time, even when I'm gone 47 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 2: up in here. And he's just saying some things. And 48 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: they keep cutting away to fans with signs, and they 49 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: cut to the broadcast booth with Wade Bart. They keep 50 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 2: cutting away and Randy's still talking. He's just still talking. 51 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 2: Then he gets in the ring and he gets up 52 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 2: on the edge to do the thing that he hasn't 53 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 2: done in a while. And he's even mouthing that even 54 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 2: though he's not on the microhone. He's like, give me 55 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 2: a minute, give him an he's all jacked. He takes 56 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: some time. It took. He was so amped up before 57 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 2: he even grabbed a microphone that I was like, I'm 58 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 2: in this dude. He's so happy to be here. And 59 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 2: he said that he loves everybody. He was super grateful. 60 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: He cuts the promo, which I absolutely loved he's embracing 61 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: the moment, he loves us, he's happy to be back, 62 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 2: and it felt very like authentic. But he was way 63 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: more jacked up than I think I've ever seen him before. 64 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: I love that you camera Mike yourself while you were 65 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: doing the impression of Brandy Orton. I kept laughing. He 66 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: would be like, that's right up. Everybody knows it. 67 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 2: It was so dull because that's how strange he was 68 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 2: watching it and go, I think he's talking to us, 69 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 2: and then they'd like, he's talking to us. 70 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: It was just funny because you could have said it 71 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: in a normal voice and you're like, yeah, no, I 72 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: want to communicate to the people what I experienced. 73 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 2: I want them to hear it the way I had 74 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 2: to hear it, Like what, I think he's talking to us, 75 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 2: but he's not talking to us. 76 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: There was the tag team Turmoil for the Undisputed WWE 77 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: Tag Team Championship match. I don't usually talk too much 78 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: tag team wrestling, but there was something super cool. The 79 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: Creed Brothers are kind of cool. They're from NXT and 80 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: I think I only like him because he does that cannonball. 81 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that might be the only thing worth talking 82 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 2: about the Creed Brothers. 83 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: I think it's the only reason I dig them. But 84 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 1: I really dug that they won the match. I love 85 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: that they do that move it. I mean, you don't 86 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: have to it's no impact like it they got it 87 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: looks great though, Yeah, but you know that the guy's 88 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: not getting hurt at all until lands on the mat, right, 89 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: It's a no impact move and I freaking love it, 90 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: Like I don't. I've never seen it. I'm sure that's 91 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,239 Speaker 1: why you love it. Freddy's because everything is from something, 92 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: but yeah. 93 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 2: We've seen everything. 94 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 3: I love it to something new, you go okay, even 95 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 3: if it is because I think also too and not 96 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 3: to be too nerdy, but if we broke down every move, 97 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 3: you could ask yourself multiple times. 98 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 2: Like how does that move even hurt the guy? 99 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: You know? 100 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,479 Speaker 2: Like I don't, Like I've talked about it before. And 101 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 2: then the truth is that wrestling fans just have no 102 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: interest in me talking about this subject at all. And 103 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 2: we've tested that market. But like I'll be like a 104 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: rock Bottom is just him ddten himself. It doesn't make 105 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 2: any sense and people are like, shut up, Jeff, shut up, Jeff, 106 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 2: And I think that's guy. 107 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's and his head can take it. Everybody knows that. 108 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: A real wrestling fan knows that at proof, But I. 109 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 2: Think that's the same thing with this Cannibal. It looks 110 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: good and that's all that really matters. It looks cool, 111 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: it's it's awesome. It's something you never see. They didn't 112 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 2: win the match. I have a problem with this format. 113 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 2: You know, two guys go out there. 114 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: They it was it was weird, dude, But I don't 115 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: know how else you book it. Like, but I totally 116 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 1: agree with you. The way it was structured is like, 117 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: all right, I know you want me to get into 118 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: this match, but this is not the way. But I 119 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: was trying to think of while I was watching it, 120 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: like what's the way? Because you can't have them all 121 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: there the same time. There's not enough freaking room. 122 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 2: That is true. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know that. 123 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: I don't know the answer either, But at I see 124 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: my cannon ball, So I was happy. 125 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 2: Creed Brothers, who I'd never heard of till on Raw 126 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 2: they barely beat New Day and then Imperium comes out 127 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 2: and just gets to like beat that ass. Like that's 128 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 2: not it seems unfair. Who determines I don't know, it's 129 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: just very Even when the Creed Brothers won or when 130 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 2: they beat whoever they beat, right before Imperium comes out, 131 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 2: I was kind of like, Oh, good for these guys, 132 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 2: these young bucks are gonna be able to advance. This 133 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 2: will be kind of exciting. And then the music of 134 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 2: Imperium hits and I was like, oh, yeah, we're still 135 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 2: in this match. I forgot that they've that, like, we're 136 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: still going. I kind of thought that they won it 137 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 2: all here and nope. Then Imperium comes out and literally 138 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 2: just beats their ass like jobbers. So it's kind of 139 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 2: it was kind of confusing. I don't know. 140 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: I just figured out how you saved the match. You 141 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: lose a team and you make it a regular for 142 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:03,559 Speaker 1: way losing team. He could have lost the Indus Share team, right, yeah, 143 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: or no there were six where there's six or five? 144 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: Well whatever, either way, it was weird. An Indus Share 145 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: didn't need to be there. It's representation, but it's just 146 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,679 Speaker 1: bad representation because they always friggin lose. 147 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 2: And that's another thing too. I say, I think that 148 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 2: like wrestling has completely forgot how to book tag teams 149 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 2: in men and women. They just it's so low priority, 150 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: is what it feels like. 151 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's probably because it is anyway. Cody Rhoades 152 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: came out dressed in a suit, looking the part the 153 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: company man. He thanked his War Games team. He talked 154 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: about cmpunk. The crowd appreciated that very much, and then 155 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: he said the part that I appreciated because it's my 156 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: favorite pay per view. Everyone who listens to the show knows. 157 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: He announced himself as the first entrant in the twenty 158 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: twenty four Royal Rumble, the greatest pay per view ever made. 159 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: Anybody that wants to to make debate me, you could try. 160 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: You can try. You you you master debaters, And I 161 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: mean that how it sounds. No, you will lose. The 162 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: Royal Rumble is the greatest match ever. And I guess 163 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: this is the run. This is going to be the 164 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: run towards towards Roman reigns, and it's going to start here. 165 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: Do you love Cody Rhodes as much as you did 166 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: when he first wrestled Roman? Have they protected him enough 167 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: or have they damaged him? And you don't care? 168 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 2: Jeff to all the Master debaters, Oh here's what I 169 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 2: was saying. 170 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,119 Speaker 1: I know for only I can get the joke. 171 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 2: And Alex, here's the thing about the Cody Rhods thing. 172 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: See him Punk is back right, which is very exciting. 173 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: We're all very happy about this, but it's like, have 174 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 2: we forgot about the excitement? You know that, like it 175 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 2: was when Cody came over, Like Cody comes and it's 176 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 2: all already we're looking for a shiny new toy. I mean, like, 177 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 2: have people completely like, what does this do to Cody Rhods? 178 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,079 Speaker 2: Now this Cmpunk's here. I've also heard not not rumors 179 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 2: because I don't know any rumors and don't have enough 180 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: sources to have good rumors, but all my wrestling friends 181 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,520 Speaker 2: are like, dude, I bet Cempunk wins the rumble. And 182 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 2: I was like, already, you think Sampunk's already gonna win 183 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 2: the rumble and get the thing? Like, are they just 184 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 2: completely giving up on all the storylines that we were 185 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 2: super excited about. 186 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 1: No, no, no, nons not no. It's if Vince was there, 187 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,200 Speaker 1: then I think that fear is valid, Okay, but I 188 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: think with Hunter in control, what story is he told 189 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: that hasn't been long term? And I mean long freaking term. 190 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: I don't know, so I don't think there is one. 191 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,319 Speaker 1: I think they protected Cody as well as they could. 192 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: He wrestled more times this year than anyone at WWE. 193 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,439 Speaker 1: As far as television matches go, it was ninety plus 194 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: some matches I saw online. They've because Roman doesn't wrestle 195 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,199 Speaker 1: that much, so it's hard. He's not on TV. He's 196 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: a part time now, so it's it's tough. So I 197 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: think Royal Rumble is as they say, it's the begins 198 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: the road to WrestleMania. The match is Cody Roman Part two, 199 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: and this time he gets over because it won't be 200 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: the full the bloodline won't be a full strength, and 201 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 1: I think he'll finally get over and then Roman will 202 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 1: go Hollywood and make movies. 203 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, that's what. You don't think Cody's gonna win? 204 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: I do. I think it's I think that's why he 205 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: came there. I think he's been playing the company guy 206 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: really really well, in this sort of hybrid corporate John 207 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: Cena style. Yeah, and I think that's what they're looking 208 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: for in the modern version of the company, which is 209 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: owned by TKO. I think is the name of the 210 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: mutual company, and I think that's the kind of buttoned 211 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: up look they're going for so I think he'll be 212 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: the next face of the company. Come come WrestleMania. And 213 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: I don't think Sam Punk has plans for that championship. 214 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: I think they're plan like you said, is with and 215 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,320 Speaker 1: I hope, I hope that's not I hope that's not true. 216 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: But before we get to Punk, let's get to seth 217 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: Rawlins or no, before we get to seth Rawlins. Shinse 218 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: K interrupts the promo and mooded, or I guess missed. 219 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: It is what we say. But the Gray Mood was 220 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,199 Speaker 1: the first guy I ever saw shoot the miss and 221 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: misted Cody in the face with the Red mist And look, 222 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: he hasn't been winning. They gave him some alpha academy 223 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 1: guys in the meantime, Shinsk, But I like that they're 224 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: giving story and a reason to fight to Shinsek. And 225 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 1: I like that they let him speak in his native tongue. 226 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: Paul Riser, a very talented comedian and writer, always said 227 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: performers are better in their native accent, in their native 228 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: tongue than if they have to switch. That's why he 229 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: would always make British peoples be British, and if he 230 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: wrote something for him and not American because he thought 231 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: they'd be funnier. And I agree with that philosophy. So 232 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 1: they say, had Shinsk come out and he jacked up Cody, 233 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: which will give Cody another story while he Roman reigns 234 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: to come back to work, Come back to work. Roman reigns, 235 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: what the hell we're at work? You can work too, Yeah, 236 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: what is it about the spitting thing? Is this like, 237 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 1: what is it comparable to, like the frog splash is 238 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: to Lucha wrestling, as the spitting mist is to Japanese wrestling. Yeah, 239 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it started in Japanese wrestling. It's 240 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: two fold. It's like it's like when someone takes their 241 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: glove off and slaps you across the face and at 242 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: the same time it blinds you so they can jack 243 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: you up if they want. But it's like the ultimate 244 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 1: sign of disrespect. Whah, I challenge you to a duel. 245 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: It's like that. 246 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 2: A lot of spitting, you know. It's it's Osca and 247 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 2: Shin's key. All the wrestlers you can't pronounce, they all spit. 248 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 2: You know. 249 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: I'm getting better. I'm getting better and I've been working 250 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: hard at it. Thank you very much. 251 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 2: Well, love it you love them more than most of us, 252 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 2: so it's fair. Shins Gate look cool though with the hairbag. 253 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 2: I like that look. 254 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: I'm dressing like him straight up with those pants. I 255 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: already have the pants. I got like three pairs of him. 256 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: I love him. Gonna start dressing like that, dude. He 257 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: just looks coolest. I'm not even playing with you, dude. 258 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: I'll show you the pan. I'm taking a picture that 259 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: it text it to you. They're called Japanese street pants 260 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: is what they call is what they're called. And I 261 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 1: have three pairs and they're awesome. I just don't have 262 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: any of the cool jackets that he has. Talk more 263 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: about their fashion than their restling, which that sucks super hard. 264 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: I think it's great. It's all part of it. It's 265 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: not very mask. Seth Rollins Drew McIntyre had a really 266 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: awesome segment that I want people to watch more than 267 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 1: I even want to talk about. But Seth came out 268 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 1: addressed to see him punk thing by not addressing it, 269 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: saying I ain't talking about that guy, which promotes their story. 270 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 1: But now I know he never really hated, right, And 271 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: Drew McIntyre comes out and comes out super babyface and 272 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: is like, hey, I respect, man. I tried it with 273 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: the with the judgment day they told promised me jay 274 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: Uso and and you know it didn't didn't work out. 275 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you I want another shot. It 276 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: says like, I can't do it, man, Like there's other 277 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: there's other people in line. Respect to you for you know, 278 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 1: taking it like a man, but you know you gotta 279 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: work your way back up. And Drew's like, yeah, dude, 280 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: I hear you. Respect. Just can you do me the 281 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: favor of telling me who it is and says like 282 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: a damn well, it's jay Uso. 283 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 4: And Drew's like, you motherfucker, like a man, puts him 284 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 4: for real, splits his own head open on the on 285 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 4: the championship title because he does that headbutt in a 286 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 4: safe place, but. 287 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: It wasn't safe that day for him. And it was 288 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: such an awesome segment, dude. I freaking loved it. And 289 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: the blood made it even better. And usually it's squeamish 290 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: with blood, but in this case it was more cinematic. 291 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, that's that's awesome right there. I 292 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: just loved it, dude, I loved it. It loved it. 293 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 2: I thought it was strange that like, I don't know who, 294 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: Like sometimes they make it sound like Pierce is the 295 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 2: one that decides the matches. Sometimes they make it sound 296 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 2: like Triple H is the one that decides, and then 297 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: in some storylines that make it seem like the champion 298 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 2: is the one who gets to decide and make all 299 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 2: call all the shots. So it's kind of all three 300 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 2: or yeah. But it's also like when is it what? 301 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: You know? 302 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 2: Like, when does it who decides what? When? I need 303 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 2: to understand the system? 304 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: These were questions that were often brought up when I 305 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: worked there. Yeah, and Vince would say what I said, 306 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: he goes all three or true, and we go, yeah, 307 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: but we don't know if people will understand that as 308 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: clearly as you do. He goes. Of course they do, Yeah, yeah, 309 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: what are you talking about? 310 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 2: Everyone gets it? But you all right, fine, I don't know. 311 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 2: It's just weird to see Drew kind of like Gravel, 312 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 2: like all right, I respect that. It's like I just 313 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: kind of want him to be like, shut up, man, 314 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 2: give me a fucking shot. I'm gonna kill you. 315 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 1: He did ask for a shot, but he came out humbled, 316 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: you know, so that his character I thought he stayed 317 00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: true to his character. I would I like him more 318 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: as bad as Drew too. But I thought he came 319 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: out a humbled guy and that was his tactic to 320 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: get the title shot. Like it was just guys got us. 321 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 2: And also they clearly just painted the picture that he's 322 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 2: a babyface now, like this is the new babyface Drew 323 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 2: and so and it works. I mean that's I was 324 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 2: just going to I'm so used to heal McIntyre just 325 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 2: taking care of business. But whatever, it was good. 326 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: And this is an old tradition on wrestling with friends. 327 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: That was the headbutt of the We Oh yeah, you 328 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: guys remember the head butt of the week. We do 329 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: it every week. That'll bring us to see him Punk. Now, 330 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: you and I spoke last week and we were sort 331 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: of in agreement. It would be cool to see Punk 332 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: come out as corporate Punk, going back to the company 333 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: that fired him on the day of his wedding, and 334 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: him just completely buying in and damaging and hurting the 335 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: crowd's feelings and getting them really really hot, and then 336 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: getting the match against Seth and becoming this evil champion 337 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,640 Speaker 1: that was not the Punk that came out. I would 338 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,239 Speaker 1: have liked to have seen him come out and I'm 339 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: not even joking in a suit and tie, and the 340 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: whole crowd would have been like, wait what. And then 341 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: him come out and be like, this is why I'm back. 342 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: And it's the last sentence of his promo, which was 343 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: the only unscripted part, which is I'm not here to 344 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: make friends, I'm here to make money. That should have 345 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: been the beginning of the promo. That should have been 346 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,479 Speaker 1: the very beginning of it, and that would have let 347 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,919 Speaker 1: put every single fan on notice that this is a 348 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: difference on punk. And he's in a suit, remember cutting 349 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: this promo, and he talks about I'm going to be 350 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: handed the World's heavyweight championship match. I'm not going to 351 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: wrestle to earn a shot. I've already been promised the shot. 352 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: It's against Seth Rollins, and he's going to have to 353 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: deal with it. And you can all cry and love 354 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 1: him and sing his music as long as you want. 355 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,920 Speaker 1: I like the song too, But I'm getting the match. 356 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: I'm winning the match, and I'm going to be the 357 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 1: World's heavyweight champion in the face of the WWE. That 358 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: was not the promo. He came out and said he 359 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: was home that this was the place he should always 360 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: have been, that it took some he took some time 361 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: away and and and had and had some clarity on 362 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 1: the situation, and came and came back again to the 363 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: place that fired him on the day of his wedding. 364 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: It's just such an intentional, heartless move. It was weird 365 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: to see him come in humble. That's how you kind 366 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: of knew it was scripted. It did not feel to 367 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: me anyway like a normal cmpunk promo until the very end. 368 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:37,399 Speaker 1: But he said there were people afraid. I don't Maybe 369 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: that was true at AEW, but that's not true at 370 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: w Caleb Braxton was was tweeting, Oh, I guess the 371 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,400 Speaker 1: grass is greener. Huh, party on bro like nobody, No 372 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: one's afraid now. If that's a story thing and a 373 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: character thing, then okay. But I personally, for my taste, 374 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,000 Speaker 1: I would have rather seen him come in heal. I 375 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: think it would have been more surprising than come in loved. 376 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 1: And it worked at Survivor series because that was his hometown. 377 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: The raw could have been the complete slap in your face, 378 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: and I think that could have been cool. What about you, though, 379 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: did you like it or not? 380 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, you got my creative mind flowing when you started 381 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 2: saying that he's pretty sick if you did come out 382 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 2: with a suit and he's. 383 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 1: Just super nice shoes, yeah to match. 384 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know things have changed. Things have changed, and 385 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 2: you can call me CM corporate, right, he just loses 386 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 2: the whole punk. It's just cm CM business or something 387 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 2: that just. 388 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 1: Changed the next business. I love that. 389 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 2: I also, this could be my hot tag of the week. 390 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 2: We haven't done those in a while, but this is 391 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 2: just something that's been a long pet peeve of mine, 392 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 2: from every reality show you've ever watched, to every wrestler 393 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 2: you've ever heard say it, to every person that thinks 394 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 2: they're clever to speak in cliches. This sentence, I'm not 395 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 2: here to make friends, I'm here to make money is 396 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 2: such a stupid sentence. It suggests that you can't do both. 397 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 2: They're not mutually exclusive. Listen, you can make money while 398 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,879 Speaker 2: you make friends, and you could have You could be professional. 399 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,199 Speaker 2: Is what most people would call it. Is you just 400 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 2: you work and you get along with people because it 401 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 2: makes work more better, or it makes work more enjoyable 402 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 2: and more productive and better for business. If you all 403 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 2: get along and play It just gives assholes an excuse 404 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 2: to be like, I'm not here to you get along 405 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 2: and be I'm here to make money. You're like, yeah, 406 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 2: well you know they make the most money is if 407 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 2: you had some friends around here and you did business 408 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 2: in the right way. I hate that sentence, and it's 409 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 2: very apropos that Ciampunk would use a cliche that I 410 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 2: hate because I'm not too crazy about him either, So 411 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 2: it's kind of a perfect. 412 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: Marriage ae W Dynamites or Dynastic. The Continental Classic is 413 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 1: a tournament that aw has put on. It's not getting 414 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 1: a lot of height, and I wasn't personally that excited 415 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: about it. But after watching these matches where you don't 416 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: need a story to have two awesome wrestlers get in 417 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 1: the ring and kick ass, I've really gotten into it. 418 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 1: So let's explain what the Continental Classic is for you. 419 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 2: Also, before you do, I was complaining, if you listened 420 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 2: earlier in the episode about the tag team Turmoil for 421 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 2: the Undisputed WB Tag Team Championship. I was complaining about 422 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 2: how confusing and weird that format was. Don't get me 423 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 2: started on the Continental Classic. What that is real. They're 424 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 2: given wrestling fans a lot of credit thinking we can 425 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 2: keep up with this. 426 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: System, all right, Well, I'm gonna try to break it 427 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 1: down in a way that we can all understand. All Right, 428 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 1: I'm dumb too, and if I can understand this, I 429 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: think we all can get on the same page. So 430 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: here we go. The Continental Classic is a round rob 431 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: We're gonna do the voice for this. The Continental Classic 432 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: is a round robin tournament featuring twelve wrestlers split into 433 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: two blocks, the Blue and Gold League, with six wrestlers 434 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: in each. The tournaments take place every week on Dynamite 435 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 1: and and the winner of each match is awarded three points. 436 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: A draw results in one point and zero points for 437 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: a loss. Each match has a twenty minute time limit 438 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: and no one is allowed at ringside to interfere in 439 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: the match. Violating this rule results in a one point deduction. 440 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: The winners from each group will face off at the 441 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: tournament final at World's End pay per view at Nassau 442 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: Coliseum in Long Island, New York, and the winner of 443 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: the tournament would become AEW's first have a triple crown champion, 444 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: taking over the ROH World Championship, New Japan Strong Open 445 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: Weight Championship and all New Continental Championship that ladies and 446 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: gentlemen is the Continental Classic? What do you think, Jeff? 447 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 1: Do you understand a little better now? 448 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,719 Speaker 2: I get it, but it's like, why why is it 449 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 2: three points for a win? Well, if it couldn't draw 450 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 2: be one and then a win is two? What why three? 451 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 2: Why did we jump up to a three? 452 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: So it's all right to go from one to three? 453 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 1: That's that shouldn't be turning. 454 00:22:58,320 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 2: Unless they're going to play a long player. 455 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 3: Five. 456 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: Why couldn't it be five? 457 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 2: Yeah? 458 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: The touchdowns worth seven? It's not worth I'm saying it's confusing. 459 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: Verse six. In les football games are really only like 460 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: four to two. We just say it's twenty eight fourteen, 461 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: but it's not. 462 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 2: I don't know, so that's maybe that's what they're doing it. 463 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 2: I hope they play around with it where it's like 464 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 2: Eddie Kingston wins, but wait, there was a minus one 465 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 2: point because someone interfered. 466 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 1: So technically it's a two. 467 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 2: John Mosley's moving on because Eddie Kingston got so I'd 468 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 2: like I hope they play along with these numbers. Otherwise 469 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 2: it's kind of pointless. But I liked the way they've 470 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 2: got who they got winning, so far. I wasn't expecting 471 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 2: some of the guys that win the matches that I thought, well, let's. 472 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 1: Get to the main event right away. They protected Switchblade 473 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 1: by not letting him take the finisher from Swerve, the 474 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: stomp that Swerve got off on Jay Lethal in the 475 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 1: first match, but Swerve got like a quick kind of 476 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 1: roll up this like not a modified roll up, but 477 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: just a cool, a cool pin. It just looked cool. 478 00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: And then like looked at him and was like, yo, 479 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: I fucking got you, bro. It was so good. Yeah, 480 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 1: and then he slid out the ring man the match. Though, 481 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: again y'all don't want to hear us get into it. 482 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 1: If you like any fight scene from any movie ever. 483 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 1: Watched this match like, it's so good. These guys beat 484 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: the shit out of each other for like nineteen minutes. 485 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: It was awesome. 486 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's so good, dude, Swart Strickling is. There's no 487 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 2: one hotter right now. So I wasn't too surprised that 488 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 2: he won. But I mean, he's just so just everything 489 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: about him as smooth as heck. 490 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 1: MJF came out cut a very solid, strong MJF typical promo. 491 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: He didn't have to do any emotional stuff. In this one, 492 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: he talked about Samoa Joe, said some real stuff about 493 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 1: him in complimentary fashion. Some of the doors that Samoa 494 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 1: Joe broke down. It had even inspired you to look 495 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: up a little old school Samoa Joe. I believe well. 496 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 2: Our producer Alex inspired me to do that because he 497 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: tweeted it his never ending tweet. It's one of them. 498 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 2: I watch all of his Alex's tweets, but one of 499 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 2: them was like a little highlight reel of Samo Joe 500 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 2: on TNA, and I wonder if that was posted because 501 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 2: of the because of mgf's promo.

And then 504 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the lights go out. They did 505 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: something cool here. It's kind of a dick move because 506 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 1: they got me okay, but the feed went black at 507 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: some point.

And they've got 512 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 1: his arms like pulled out, you know, like Toby mcfiron 513 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 1: Spider Man two, but he's like getting stretched. Yeah, mobsters, 514 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: that's a better way to say it. Simojo comes out 515 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: and saves saves the day because he's our hero. And 516 00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: then the feed goes black and WW has done this 517 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: a million times, but they've never let it stay black 518 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: for this long, Right, it stayed black for so long? 519 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 1: Jeff and I can't watch it live because I have 520 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: YouTube TV and I don't get the live broadcast for 521 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: either of these, but I can fast forward, and I 522 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: was like, ah, man, just let me fast forward.
