00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,280
Speaker 1: never had the issue of looking presentable because I've always

7
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: taken care of like my beard and my hair, and

8
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 1: I've always tried to make sure everything is maintained very well.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: But when it comes to well, you know, below the belt,

10
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: that is a very sensitive area. Guys, you know what

11
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. And ladies you've probably heard your guy

12
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,559
Speaker 1: talking about this, and yeah, it's not very good when

13
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: you try to manscape, especially if you nick yourself. That's

14
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 1: why Manscaped has redesigned the electric trimmer.

15
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 2: You know.

16
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,680

Speaker 1: third generation trimmer features a cutting edge ceramic blade to

20
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,400

27
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: to groom in the shower, because let's be honest, when

28
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 1: you groom above the toilet seat, your wife or your

29
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: girlfriend probably gets mad at you because you leave hair there.

30
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: I know mine does. Anyways. The coolest feature on there

31
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: the LED light, which illuminates grooming areas for closer, more

32
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: precise trimming. They've also upgraded to a seven thousand rpm

33
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: motor with quiet stroke technology. And let's not forget about

34
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: the charging stand. Show your mower off loud and proud,

35
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:47,000

Speaker 3: now Here are your hosts, Battle and Eli.

51
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: Eventually, I'm gonna figure out how we're gonna start this

52
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: show off because we're not as cool as the Bells

53
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: of the Brawl because they have hell fire and Brimstone.

54
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: So we've got to figure out like some kind of

55
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 1: catchphrase to kick the show off. But the show starting now,

56
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: So I mean, like.

57
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 2: I like the formal, you know, greetings and salutations.

58
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 1: Greetings and salutations. Okay, that's what we're gonna go with

59
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 1: from now on. So when we start the show, we're

60
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: just gonna say greetings and salutations.

61
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,519
Speaker 2: We sound very fancy right now.

62
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: We do sound fancy, and you know what else is

63
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: fancy that little nice set that NXT put up that

64
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: we finally got a glimpse of that we all hoped

65
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: at in Your House, you know, we were all hoping

66
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,959
Speaker 1: that there would be the front door of the front

67
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: of the house set up.

68
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 2: Yep. I think there was just you know, cautious cautiously

69
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 2: optimistic that they were going to do the set, you know,

70
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 2: I think, uh, I don't know for for for I

71
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 2: guess you know, if you were watching in the nineties,

72
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 2: I mean, those sets were kind of iconic, so like

73
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 2: in your House, Halloween, havoc, you know, a lot of

74
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 2: that stuff. So if you bring back that event and

75
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 2: just name it that event, it kind of loses the

76
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 2: less a little bit. So uh, yeah, it was pretty

77
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 2: pretty cool. Again, they kind of made the best of

78
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 2: it considering there wasn't a real audience there, But yeah,

79
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 2: I thought it was that was cool, and it was

80
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 2: kind of cool how they did the you know, the

81
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 2: doorbell was just the the ring and then they used

82
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 2: the footage from it, you know, at some points through

83
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 2: the night, So that was kind of cool.

84
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: I didn't think that was cool, And that's what we're

85
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: gonna be discussing on today's episode. We're gonna be breaking

86
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: down what we thought of in your house. But yeah,

87
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: all in all was good. It kind of makes me think, though,

88
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: like what if this was at an actual arena with

89
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: the audience. I mean, just think of how awesome that

90
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: set would look inside of an arena. I know, it's

91
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 1: like a smaller scale in the garage was where they

92
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: came out kind of thing, but I mean, if they

93
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: had more room to play with.

94
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's pretty interesting because this I don't know,

95
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 2: just kind of judging from what I was reading online

96
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 2: and then I've got CBS dot Com pulled up for

97
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 2: the results. This is one of the lower rated takeovers

98
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 2: that they've ever had. I think really they only they

99
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 2: only rated one match at an A or above and

100
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 2: that was the main event. Everything else was a B

101
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 2: or lower. And you know most takeovers there's several A

102
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 2: A matches, you know what I mean. So, yeah, they

103
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 2: even where's that one? Oh, I guess Colon dream they

104
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 2: gave like a C.

105
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: Well, we and me and you were kind of texting

106
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: back and forth and we'll discuss that later, but I

107
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 1: can kind of it was a good match, but I mean,

108
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: we'll dive into that once we get to it. We're

109
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: just gonna kind of go through each match here and there,

110
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:44,240
Speaker 1: and you know.

111
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 2: See, but I guess we could officially start the episode.

112
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 2: I don't think we've actually we just started talking. We

113
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 2: haven't said what we were doing or the show name

114
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 2: or anything. I think we just started talking.

115
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,680
Speaker 1: We've just been talking. But yeah, so we're gonna be

116
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 1: kind of talking about the in your house pay per view.

117
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 1: We'll kind of talk about Adam Cole and what that

118
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 1: meant for his contract, because I did notice a lot

119
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: of people were commenting about his contract situation. We kind

120
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: of briefly talked about it last week on the show,

121
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 1: which we'll talk about this week. But let's just kind

122
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 1: of let's kind of kick off. I was really, you know, surprised,

123
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:17,960
Speaker 1: but not at the same time because I knew it

124
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: was gonna be an amazing match. Kicking it off with

125
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: the uh, the six women tag match.

126
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:28,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't really like six six man tag matches,

127
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 2: just because it's generally, I mean, unless there's a specific build,

128
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 2: you know, like whatever, you know, the three members of

129
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 2: the Shield against the three members of New Day or

130
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 2: you know, something like that where it's three on three

131
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 2: or something like that. But when they just put these

132
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 2: you know, kind of random people together, it's almost like

133
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 2: they just didn't have a spot for him, so they're like,

134
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 2: let's just do this, you know. And I mean it's

135
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 2: you know, it's fine. It just it kind of reminds

136
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 2: me of a Roar Rumble, you know, unless you're at

137
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 2: the actual roller Rumble. Like the Royal Rumbles are just

138
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 2: kind of like, we don't know what else to do,

139
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 2: so we're gonna do this battle Royal, you know. So

140
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 2: but I mean it was pretty you know, obviously, all

141
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 2: all six of these you know, female are incredible. I mean, Dakota, I.

142
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 1: Don't want that tank that shots he drives out, Yeah,

143
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: but I don't think my big ass can make that

144
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: work and drive you mean.

145
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: But yeah, you know, Dakota got Rising Star of the

146
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 2: Year or something last year at the next two awards,

147
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 2: and her and Teaguan Knox had a pretty crazy battle

148
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 2: at the end of last year. And I mean, all these,

149
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 2: all these females are awesome. So I mean the match

150
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 2: itself was good. I just personally I'm not a huge

151
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 2: fan of just kind of thrown together six man tag matches.

152
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean it got it got a lot

153
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: of them screen time, and you know, everybody, it was

154
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: a good match. CBS give it what a B minus.

155
00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: I kind of agree with that. It'll be interesting to see,

156
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: you know, what storylines developed from this six women tag match.

157
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: But you know, CBS thinks that the match was a

158
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: little too rushed in the build and suffered for it. Yeah,

159
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: I could see that. It seemed like it was. It

160
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: was a lot of things were happening at once, and

161
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if it was maybe just because you know,

162
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: it was the kickoff match, or it was Okay, look,

163
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: every every taker we have, this opening match sets the

164
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: tone for the entire night.

165
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that probably had something to do with it.

166
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:41,200
Speaker 2: And you know, probably just nerves too. I mean, just

167
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 2: you know, it's a different situation and everything. But but yeah,

168
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, considering it's an opening match, I

169
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 2: mean it was. It was very solid, you know, start,

170
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 2: stolid start to the pay per view, I'd say.

171
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it was. It was a good one. Uh,

172
00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: moving on to the next match, which, by the way,

Speaker 1: all that stuff. But the next match is the one

180
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 1: that I was looking forward to, and it was Finn

181
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: Balor and Damian Priest. And if you don't know who

182
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 1: Damien Priesce is and you're a Ring of Honor fan,

183
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 1: Damian Priesce used to be Punishment Martinez.

184
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, former television champion, mister Martinez. Yes.

185
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: And for a big dude, he can fly.

186
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. I thought it was a good mix because they're

187
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 2: both kind of built out of the same mold in

188
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 2: the sense that they're both you know, kind of muscular guys,

189
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 2: but they can, you know, kind of fly a little bit.

190
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 2: Finn obviously can do a little bit more. But I

191
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 2: mean Damian Priest, considering his build and everything, I mean,

192
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 2: he really like some of the kicks he was doing

193
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 2: last night were just all But I didn't really know.

194
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I obviously assumed Finn was gonna win, you know,

195
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 2: I wouldn't. I don't know, I kind of I almost

196
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 2: see him being the one to beat Adam Cole and

197
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,680
Speaker 2: get the belt back. So I think they're kind of

198
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 2: building too something. But you know, CBS gave it a B.

199
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 2: You know, I think it was I think Finn put

200
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 2: him over so it didn't look like a week loss

201
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 2: or anything like that. The spot where he gets uh

202
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 2: priest gets kicked off the side and lands on his

203
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 2: back on the steps was gnarly and just.

204
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: Hearing that thump, like I mean, like I was when

205
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 1: I was I watched it and I was growing through

206
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,319
Speaker 1: you know, Twitter, and people were just like that was unnecessary.

207
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: There was no reason to do that. It kind of

208
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: ended his career. They were like comparing it to Rick

209
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: Rude spot.

210
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's like me and you were talking about

211
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 2: like there's not a way to fake that, like you,

212
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,239
Speaker 2: I mean, you just have to fall on the still step.

213
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, Like there's not pray to

214
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 1: God that you know, you laying on some part of

215
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 1: your back that's not going to be too terribly bad. Yeah.

216
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 2: I mean, if you go back and look at some

217
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 2: of the stuff they did in like the Attitude era,

218
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 2: you know, Shane falling off the Jumbo Tron and all

219
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 2: that crap. You know that he was falling on pads

220
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 2: and it was safe and stuff like that. There's also

221
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,679
Speaker 2: times when you can see stuff, you know, the New

222
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 2: Jack scaffold match. You know, there's no way to fake

223
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 2: that he threw somebody off, you know. Yeah, same thing,

224
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 2: Like the same thing with Damian Priest, Like there's nowhere

225
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 2: to go but on your back and it's solid still

226
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 2: steps like that's just you know, that's the way it goes.

227
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 2: But but yeah, you know, it's it's it's cool that

228
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 2: that they're given Damien Priest kind of some face time.

229
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 2: You know. When he moved over from Ring of Honor,

230
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 2: it was kind of slow build and he wasn't on

231
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,599
Speaker 2: TV every single week, and you know, I think it

232
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 2: was just you know, getting his feet under him and everything.

233
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: But he was doing like a lot of the house shows. Yeah,

234
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: like n x T would go to, you know the

235
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 1: one that you went to down there.

236
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was actually there. Yeah, he was at that one.

237
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 1: But like him and him, him and Matt Riddle are

238
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,440
Speaker 1: like really good friends, you know.

239
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and.

240
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 1: I want to say maybe they room together there in

241
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: Orlando for a little bit or something along those lines.

242
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean it's it's great to see Damian

243
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: Priest get what he get the screen time and get

244
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: the recognition that he deserves, not that he didn't get

245
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: it in Ring of Honor. I mean he was hell

246
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,320
Speaker 1: the television champion. So and he's he's been a former

247
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 1: guest on the show, which you can go back and

248
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: listen to that episode. But I mean, the big dude

249
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: can fly. I mean he's got the Undertaker built, but

250
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,559
Speaker 1: he can fly, like you don't have to worry about

251
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: you know, is he gonna butcher this? Is he gonna

252
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,559
Speaker 1: batch this jumping off the top rope.

253
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, And somebody was already comparing him to Baron Corbyn

254
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 2: and they're like he's already a better Baron Corbyn and think,

255
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 2: well yeah, but I mean they can be similar that

256
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 2: I don't think they're exactly the same.

257
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, I just I don't see that comparison, like

258
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: I get maybe like I think it's just kind of thing.

259
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 2: I think it's just he's bigger and the tattoos and

260
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 2: you know. But so yeah, anyways, I mean, I mean

261
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 2: they gave.

262
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: It a B.

263
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 2: I mean I think that's pretty solid, you know. So

264
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 2: so yeah, so I mean not a bad those two

265
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 2: matches were not a bad start to the to.

266
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: The not at all. And the fact that, you know,

267
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: the one thing that I did enjoy about In Your

268
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 1: House is like when we talked about the whole you know,

269
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: is the house set coming back, this, that and the other.

270
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: But the fact they got Todd Pettengill back for in

271
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: Your House and promos was the best part the night.

272
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, that I thought it was cool when he was

273
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 2: talking about the you know, the uh he did the

274
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 2: promotional consideration spots, yes, and you know, he was talking

275
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 2: about well for all your needs just called one nine hundred.

276
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: Oh sorry, and then he's like go to ww dot

277
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 2: com or whatever, and uh, Adam Cole doing the ico

278
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 2: pro commercial and I thought, I mean, they they had

279
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 2: a lot of fun with it. And honestly, that stuff

280
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 2: reminds me of like the n w A and what

281
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 2: they're doing with Danny Dials and uh Waffle and the

282
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 2: Tyre Iron Imporium and all that stuff. You know, they're

283
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 2: just kind of having fun with it and they're doing

284
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 2: they're making these commercials like you would have seen in

285
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 2: the eighties and stuff like that. So so yeah, I

286
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 2: thought that was really awesome. So yeah, so you know,

287
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 2: if if they do announce by some miracle that they're

288
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 2: bringing back Halloween Havoc, we should feel safe, you know

289
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 2: that they're going to have a set up to.

290
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 1: As long as it's with NXT.

291
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, that'd be my preference. But I wouldn't

292
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 2: I mean, I wouldn't be too picky.

293
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be picky either, but I think NXT would

294
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 1: probably be the best suited to pull off the Halloween havoc,

295
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: just you know, and Triple H seems to let everybody

296
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: just have free reign. It's not like Vince is calling

297
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: the shots or you know.

298
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just think that like that set would look

299
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 2: better in a bigger arena, Like I don't I think

300
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 2: they would have to sacrifice too much of it to

301
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 2: get it in the well. I guess it depends on

302
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 2: if it's a regular takeover, if it's like what they

303
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 2: did this weekend and it was at the Performance Center,

304
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 2: you know. But yeah, but yeah, I mean it's the

305
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 2: same thing. I mean, they they took over war games

306
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 2: and that's their thing now, so I mean, give them

307
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 2: give them Halloween havoc.

308
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 1: I would. I mean, there's a whole list of things

309
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: I know one that they won't get is Bash at

310
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: the Beach. But no, it's only a matter of time

311
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: before Cody just gets all the dusty pay per views.

312
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know that's kind of what he's shooting for.

313
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 2: So yeah, we'll see.

314
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 1: But so the next match was Keith Lee and Joinning

315
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 1: Gargano for the NXT North American Championship. And for those

316
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 1: of you who listen, I texted this to Eli last night,

317
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: and please don't at me. I don't get the hype

318
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: of Johnny Gargano. I'm not a Johnny Gargano fan. Like

319
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 1: I don't see anything special about Johnny Gargano. I'm probably

320
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: gonna get. I'm it's it's you know, cheap heat. But

321
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 1: I'm just I just don't get it.

322
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm in the same boat. I you know,

323
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 2: by the time I got back into wrestling, I hadn't

324
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 2: I never really I never really watched what what many

325
00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 2: what you would consider like independent wrestling. You know, I had,

326
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 2: I had some tapes and stuff when I was younger,

327
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 2: and and I'm you know, I'm sure I had some

328
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 2: smaller promotional stuff and you know I remember, but I

329
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 2: mean even like New Japan's like New Japan, like New

330
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 2: Japan's a big that's not an indie, you know, so

331
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't really remember when I saw my

332
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 2: first quote unquote independent wrestling match, but you know, by

333
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,360
Speaker 2: the time I started watching, he was already in n XT.

334
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 2: He was Johnny wrestling whatever. And I mean the first

335
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 2: thing that I remember of him was the Cruiserweight Tournament,

336
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 2: where him and Champa were already teaming tag teaming at

337
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 2: some point. I don't think they'd I don't. I don't

338
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 2: think they officially had that name yet, but I think

339
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 2: it was that had already started, but they got each

340
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 2: other's number in the tournament and they had to fight

341
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,479
Speaker 2: each other, and then it was over, and then they

342
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 2: went back to being an attack team. And then he eventually

343
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 2: turned on Gargano. But I was more drawn to Traumpa

344
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 2: than I was Gargano, and then going back and watching

345
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 2: some of Trumpa's stuff before he got to NXT. I'm

346
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 2: a much bigger fan of him than I am Gargano

347
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 2: most definitely. I'm actually probably a bigger fan of his

348
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 2: wife than I am him. Uh yeah, just I did see,

349
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 2: like once I got into it, I went back and

350
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 2: watched some of like hit her and Joey Ryan stuff

351
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 2: and World's Cutest Tech Team all that stuff.

352
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna I'll say this. I would say that

353
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 1: Canvas will be the NXT Women's Championship probably sometime next year.

354
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really weird, Like she hasn't really wrestled a ton.

355
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 2: It seems like to me like she for the first

356
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 2: little bit she was over with NXT, she just like

357
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 2: went with Johnny Gargano to the ring, like she I

358
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,400
Speaker 2: don't even remember the first time I remember her wrestling,

359
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 2: So I don't I don't really know what they're doing

360
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 2: with her, to be honest with you. I mean, it's

361
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 2: kind of cool that she's kind of heelish now and

362
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 2: changing her hair color and doing all this weird stuff.

363
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't know. I mean I wouldn't be surprised.

364
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 2: I mean, she's obviously talented, but I just as of

365
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 2: right now, I just don't know what they're doing with her.

366
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 1: It's kind of like the Chelsea Green thing. It's like

367
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 1: you had her with Robert Stone, she dropped Robert Stone

368
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,360
Speaker 1: and she like team with Charlotte and then she did it.

369
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 1: It's like, what's going on, Like, is she about to

370
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 1: get called up or what. Yeah, I it's very strange

371
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 1: now that we kind of got an off track of

372
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 1: certain kind of wrestlings. We'll talk about Keith Lee and

373
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: Johnny Gargano's match. The one thing I didn't understand was

374
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 1: Johnny Gargano's ring attire. I didn't know if he's like

375
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,399
Speaker 1: Assassin's Creed or you know what, but the homage of

376
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: him paying tribute to Doc right as soon as he

377
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: was walking out the door, I believe.

378
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know that's what I saw on.

379
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,959
Speaker 1: Twitter because I didn't see it. I thought very quickly

380
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: and I didn't know what it looked like. Michael Hayes

381
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: on the photo that Johnny Garganoh.

382
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was yeah, that's who was in the his house. Okay,

383
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,880
Speaker 2: that was it. That was in like mid nineties. That's

384
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 2: when he was like an announcer and he did backstage

385
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:29,640
Speaker 2: interviews and stuff, so.

386
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: And so him coming out, I didn't understand that. But

387
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,440
Speaker 1: I will say this that kudos and we talked about

388
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: it in the group chat. Uh, kudos to Keith Lee

389
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: for you know, having black Lives Matter on his entire

390
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 1: ring attire especially. You know, the one thing I saw

391
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: a lot of people were talking about was like they

392
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 1: were applauding Keith for wearing that, especially with Vince mc

393
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: mann and the company and you know his ties with

394
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 1: Trump and we're not getting political on this, but kudos

395
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 1: and much respect to Keith Lee.

396
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a lot of people pointed that out.

397
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 2: So it was pretty cool, pretty cool.

398
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,919
Speaker 1: But yeah, so starting the match off, the one thing, Uh,

399
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: it was kind of a slow build, I guess in

400
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: my opinion, it seemed like it was kind of them

401
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,679
Speaker 1: filling each other out. And you know, I was like,

402
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: if I just didn't want to see Gargana win the title,

403
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 1: there's got to be something else with him. And you know,

404
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 1: they did everything right in the match to make both

405
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,479
Speaker 1: of them look good and make Keith not look like,

406
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 1: oh he's getting beat by you know David.

407
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that the spot where he checked Gargana through

408
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,439
Speaker 2: the plexic plexic glass was.

409
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: Like, if you're in a match with Keith Lee and

410
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,639
Speaker 1: you're running away and you're near a guardrail, you're pretty

411
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 1: much determined to go flying. Yeah, I mean there wasn't

412
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:02,000
Speaker 1: There wasn't you know, Adam Cole height to that that flying,

413
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:06,879
Speaker 1: but he I was I was wondering when that somebody

414
00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: was gonna get thrown to that flexiglass.

415
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's kind of uh, you know, and

416
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 2: obviously we'll talk about it later, but it's kind of

417
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,760
Speaker 2: when when you start the pay review, you're kind of like, Okay,

418
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 2: I think somebody's going through that. Okay, who's gonna jump

419
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 2: off the house? Okay, who's getting thrown through the window? Okay,

420
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 2: who's gonna you know, drive a tank out the girlage? Whatever?

421
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 2: You know, you kind of start thinking like, I wonder

422
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 2: what they're going to do with all these props and

423
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:36,160
Speaker 2: all these stagings and stuff like that. So but yeah,

424
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,159
Speaker 2: I mean it was you know, CBS gave it a b.

425
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 2: Keith Lee obviously retained still the United States or excuse me,

426
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 2: North American champion. I mean, it was you know, it

427
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,120
Speaker 2: was it was it was solid. I'm a very big

428
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 2: Keith Lee fan, so watching him.

429
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:58,719
Speaker 1: Beat up Gargano was I was just waiting for the

430
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 1: moment that we get Keith and brock lesnar. Yeah. I

431
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: mean it's bound to happen, because you got to understand

432
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 1: Vince is looking at Keith and be like that that

433
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 1: dude's a hoss right there. And we got a glimpse

434
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,919
Speaker 1: of it kinda at the Royal Rumble.

435
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm the only thing that the only thing that

436
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 2: kind of concerns me is that Brock prefers like the

437
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 2: smaller matches now, so he doesn't he doesn't like like

438
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 2: him against Braun and him against Bobby Lashley, you know,

439
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 2: he likes like him against Seth, him against Daniel Bryan,

440
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:47,120
Speaker 2: him against Finn Balor. So So I don't know. And

441
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,240
Speaker 2: you know, evidently it might have been the Royal Realm.

442
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 2: I don't know, or it might have been WrestleMania, but

443
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 2: I guess Matt Riddle was backstage and they crossed paths

444
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 2: and Brocks like quit saying, I name, We're never working together.

445
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 2: And it's like, you know, he's one of the like

446
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 2: two or three people that can determine like I'm not

447
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,199
Speaker 2: I'm not doing a program with him. So so I

448
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 2: don't know.

449
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: I think it.

450
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 2: I think all the big people, I think you kind

451
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 2: of inevitably think like I wonder what would happen with

452
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 2: him in Brock, So I think it's just natural to

453
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 2: be like dang, I wonder what Keith would do in

454
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 2: the ring with him. But I don't know, I think

455
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 2: Brock's starting to wind down his career a little bit,

456
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 2: so I think he's kind of picking and choosing what

457
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 2: he does from here on out. So we'll see. I

458
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 2: think it would be a good match just because they're

459
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 2: both similar, but obviously Keith's you know, ten or twelve

460
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 2: years younger or whatever.

461
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 4: Yeah.

462
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,719
Speaker 1: I think if anything, it's one of those ones that

463
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,399
Speaker 1: you know, it's kind of getting close towards the end

464
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 1: of Brock's career and it's like, hey, do one do

465
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: a favor for us and just put Keith over kind

466
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: of thing.

467
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, but uh yeah, Keith Lee.

468
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 1: Keith Lee won. I did notice a lot of people

469
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: talking about me a ym coming out and like beating

470
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: Candice Loray and some sweatpants and Timbalands.

471
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:04,199
Speaker 4: Mm hm.

472
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 1: That was pretty cool. That was a cool moment. But

473
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: glad that Keith Lee won, you know, kept the title.

474
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 1: It should be fun to see who he's gonna go

475
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 1: against next, and we'll find out Wednesday night because they'll

476
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: probably get the going with that. The next match is

477
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 1: the one that was previously taped, I do believe, and

478
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 1: it was the NXT Championship Adam Cole versus velveteen dream

479
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 1: and a backlot brawl, and I was like, okay, what's

480
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: this going to be? And of course you heard all

481
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: these talks that Adam Cole contract is up this summer,

482
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,719
Speaker 1: what's he gonna do? And then you had Baker that

483
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: came on I guess she was what on the AW

484
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 1: podcast and she was like, you know, I see you know,

485
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: Adam and the Bucks and Omega and all them wrestling

486
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,359
Speaker 1: again together, you know, sooner than later, blah blah blah.

487
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 1: So of course the internet starts buzzing. Is Adam Cole

488
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 1: going to ae W if you haven't seen in your house.

489
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,160
Speaker 1: Adam Cole did win last night, but we'll talk about

490
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 1: this match and what that meant moving forward with the

491
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 1: future of W and n x T the entrances. I

492
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 1: wasn't really impressed with Adam Cole's like I was velveteen dreams.

493
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 2: Are you talking about like when he came out on

494
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 2: the Monster Truck? Yes, yeah, I don't know. I don't know.

495
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 2: It was it was just like an excuse to like

496
00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 2: show a truck that was covered in you know whatever.

497
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 2: So I don't know.

498
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: Has shocked the system monster truck?

499
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, the UI Monster Truck. So yeah, I mean, you know,

500
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 2: I thought Dream obviously looked like a badass driving up

501
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 2: looking like Megan from uh Walking Dead.

502
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: But that was amazing.

503
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was really good. I really like how he

504
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 2: changes his outfit, you know a little bit. And he

505
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,239
Speaker 2: kind of had a Hollywood Hogan influence tights, and then

506
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,199
Speaker 2: he had like Rick Rude influence tights, and then you know,

507
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,399
Speaker 2: he obviously dressed up like Meagan. So I kind of

508
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,160
Speaker 2: like when he tweaks his stuff like that. But yeah,

509
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 2: it was very confusing because I've never seen well, I

510
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 2: was about to say that maybe I have, I don't

511
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 2: know off the top of my head. Let me rephrase that.

512
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 2: I'm sure I've seen something, but nothing's jumping out. But

513
00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 2: I've never seen a you know, like a parking lot

514
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 2: brawl or some kind of like backstate Like, I've never

515
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 2: seen anything like that with a ring.

516
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, because you look back at the other ones and

517
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 1: it's like it's just us, the cars in the circle,

518
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 1: and it's just you know, they're fighting on whatever, kind

519
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 1: of like you know, Eddie Guerrero and John Cena.

520
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it just like when I hear that,

521
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 2: I think of like like hardcore hardcore rules, you know,

522
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 2: and you just you're fighting all backstage and in the

523
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 2: parking lot whatever, and you just you know, you gotta

524
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:26,680
Speaker 2: get the pen and that's it. And it's like it's

525
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 2: almost like they either should have taken the ring out

526
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:34,160
Speaker 2: and then made it quote unquote cinematic, or they should

527
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 2: have left the ring but then just had a normal match,

528
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 2: you know, like it was just confusing one way, it

529
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 2: needed to change one way, and they even, let's see,

530
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 2: CBS said this was visually difficult to watch, with significant

531
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 2: lighting issues and a jumbled mess of spots and quote

532
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 2: unquote things happening. These two would have been far better

533
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 2: served to have a straight wrestling match rather than going

534
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 2: the quote unquote cinematic route, and they gave it a C.

535
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 2: And I agree it was kind of I mean, it

536
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 2: was very you could tell a lot of the stuff

537
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 2: was orchestrated and stuff, but it was just like it

538
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 2: didn't really need to be you know, it wasn't like

539
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 2: the Undertaker an aj Styles match, and it wasn't like

540
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 2: the Bray White John Cena, Like they could have just

541
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 2: done that live, like the exact same thing that we saw.

542
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 2: You could have just done that as a live match.

543
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 2: It wasn't really quote unquote cinematic, so yeah, little little

544
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 2: anti climatic. You know, I think everyone's waiting for Dream

545
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 2: to turn the corner and you know, get the gold

546
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 2: or get the North American title back or and I really.

547
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 1: Thought that that would last night was going to be

548
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: the turning corner for Dream. Yeah, especially as much as

549
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: they've piped up Adam Colby and the longest raigning champion

550
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: and he's the face of NT YadA YadA, YadA.

551
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's that's why I think the that's why

552
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 2: I think it's going to be Finn, just because you know,

553
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 2: he he had the showdown with him, but then he

554
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,719
Speaker 2: turned on Gargano because that's probably the exact same thing

555
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 2: I would do. But you know, they kind of hinted

556
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 2: that something was happening and then it didn't, and I

557
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 2: don't know, I just kind of see that, like I

558
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 2: see I see Finn being like that worthy of a competitor,

559
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 2: not that you know, everyone else that Adam Cole's fault

560
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 2: so far isn't, but I think that he would be

561
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 2: a worthy you know, it's you know, he he he

562
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 2: was one of the ones that put in Cea on

563
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 2: the map. He held the title for the longest Cole

564
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 2: Boat broke that streak. He wants the belt back to

565
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 2: start a new streak. Blah blah blah, Like it already

566
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 2: kind of has a built in story, you know, so.

567
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: Right, and you kind of think if Cole drops a defend,

568
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: does that mean Cole is about to get caught up?

569
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,959
Speaker 1: And Finn kind of creates, you know, the OC whatever

570
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: he wants to call it with everybody else.

571
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 2: I mean I almost see I can almost see like

572
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 2: all four of them getting caught up. You know, just

573
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 2: just send the whole group up.

574
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: I'd be okay with that. Ye So, but yes, I

575
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: mean it was I don't know, like like you said,

576
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 1: and of course CBS is reporting like it was very

577
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: hard to follow. It was the part where the lady

578
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 1: pulled up in the uber and I'm like, okay, what's

579
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 1: this supposed to be? Like, what does this have anything

580
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 1: to do with it? And there was really nothing in it.

581
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 1: They just went through both sides of the van and

582
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 1: then you know, it was like when does Roger Strong

583
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 1: and Bobby Fish come into play? Because you know it's

584
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: gonna happen, and they came out and then Dexter Loomis,

585
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: who's fantastic, like glad to see him finally getting what

586
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: he deserves as well, former tried and true champion by

587
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:56,959
Speaker 1: the way, shout out, but I mean his character is

588
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 1: just it's amazing and him, you know, come to help

589
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: out Dream and I thought, okay, well maybe I saw

590
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 1: that and I was like, and I think I texted you.

591
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: I was like, I would like to see Dream and

592
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 1: Dexter Loomis go at it, just because the head games

593
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 1: that both of them would play.

594
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they I wouldn't be surprised that they set

595
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 2: them up to be a tag team and then you

596
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 2: know they split up per usual. And who who are

597
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 2: the NXT Tag Team champions right now?

598
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: Uh? Uh they beat It's the people from Imperium.

599
00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 2: That's right. Yeah, because they're the n X t U

600
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 2: K Tag champs and the n XT.

601
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: Champs because uh, Pete Dunn, I think maybe his his

602
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 1: visa made him go back during this COVID stuff and

603
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: it was Matt Riddle and Timothy Thatcher.

604
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 2: And that's what that's what's set up there.

605
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 1: At least at least they're not putting them in a

606
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 1: triathlon like Street Profits and Viking Raiders. But that's for

607
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 1: a different episode that we'll talk about. So yeah, so Cole,

608
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,440
Speaker 1: you know, Cole got the win, he got the pin

609
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: and Cole retains the title, which which then all of

610
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 1: a sudden after that match was over. I loved watching

611
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 1: watching social media because you know, for the longest we

612
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:27,160
Speaker 1: knew about Adam Cole's contract being up this summer, but apparently,

613
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,280
Speaker 1: according to some of the several dirt sheets, Adam Cole

614
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 1: signed a multi year deal, you know, months ago before

615
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: his contract was even up.

616
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I because he started at n XT and

617
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 2: not on the main roster. He's you know, he's completely

618
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 2: under the wing of Sean Michaels and Triple H and

619
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:52,880
Speaker 2: which is a.

620
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: Great wing to be under.

621
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and so you know, I think they're grooming

622
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 2: him to be like a second Coming kind of a deal.

623
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 2: So I don't I mean, I don't. I don't know.

624
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 2: If I see him, I don't know, if I see

625
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,720
Speaker 2: him leaving, he might be a he might be a lifer.

626
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: That's what I'm thinking. I think, you know, years from now,

627
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,880
Speaker 1: you're gonna sit there and I think Adam Cole is

628
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: gonna be like, like you said, the Second Coming, He's

629
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 1: gonna be your next you know, sena Rock, you know.

630
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 2: And I have to say, I don't know for sure,

631
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 2: but I want to bet that if anyone maybe maybe

632
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 2: not Kenny Omega, but if anyone else from the elite,

633
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,799
Speaker 2: like Cody or the Bucks, I mean even hang Man,

634
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 2: I guess. I mean, if they had gotten an offer

635
00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 2: like that, I don't know if they would have went Ada.

636
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 2: You know, if like if Triple H was like it

637
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 2: would be weird because they probably wouldn't go to NXT.

638
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 2: But you know, if Triple H was like, Hey, Cody,

639
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 2: why don't you come back. We're gonna put you on

640
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,360
Speaker 2: the main roster. We're gonna kind of build, you know,

641
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:11,040
Speaker 2: build the main event picture around you, right, I mean

642
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 2: that's all he wanted, you know. So like I can't

643
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 2: blame Adam Cole for that, you know. And I'm sure

644
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:23,439
Speaker 2: there's still you know, a lot of these guys grew

645
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 2: up watching WWE, so they're living their dreams. They're working

646
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 2: at the company they want to work at. And obviously

647
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 2: Cole has friends in WWE. There's all always stuff going

648
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 2: around about him and Kevin Owens and you know everybody

649
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 2: really so so yeah, I don't know I mean, I

650
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 2: think he'll be good anywhere obviously, but like I mean,

651
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 2: I think I think by the time he's like a

652
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 2: main event player, I'm hoping Vince will be gone, like retired,

653
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 2: not dead, and so but yeah, I mean, anyways, you know,

654
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 2: it is what it is. It was not a great match,

655
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,360
Speaker 2: but you know, he retained.

656
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: It does what it needs to do. And me and

657
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 1: you had kind of been going back and forth because

658
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 1: you know, we had other things to do. We're like, Okay,

659
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 1: we're gonna turn it off after this match, and then

660
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,840
Speaker 1: I completely forgot because I thought maybe I'd already missed this.

661
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 1: But the next match is Champa versus Carrying Cross formerly

662
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 1: known as Killer Cross, and like the entrance for Carrying

663
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:31,800
Speaker 1: Cross is phenomenal, especially you know, with putting Scarlet with

664
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 1: him and that thing I put that entrance up there

665
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,840
Speaker 1: with like the bray Wyatt Fiend entrance.

666
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:49,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. Yeah, it was like just cinematic enough,

667
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 2: but then it also like, you know, to me, it

668
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 2: kind of felt like a threat, Like it felt like

669
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 2: somebody was walking out to beat somebody up, you know.

670
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 2: And yeah, and I kind of liked that Scarlett really

671
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,320
Speaker 2: didn't get involved. She was kind of just eye candy.

672
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,360
Speaker 2: I don't know, I can see her kind of interfering

673
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:14,760
Speaker 2: with the matches and like, you know, high profile matches

674
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 2: like maybe he's fighting for the title or something, but

675
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 2: just like just kind of normal matches where there's not

676
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 2: a lot on the line. I think Cross needs to

677
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,839
Speaker 2: to do most of the work in the in the ring.

678
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 1: So I think I think Cross will will either be

679
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 1: NXT North American Champion or you know, or he'll be

680
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 1: the heavyweight champion within a year, maybe two years at

681
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 1: the most.

682
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can see that, and a lot of people

683
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 2: are kind of already you know, guessing and whatever online

684
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 2: like how long is he going to be at NXT,

685
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 2: you know, like he's ready now and so but yeah,

686
00:37:58,719 --> 00:37:59,959
Speaker 2: I mean solid.

687
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 1: Match, and they booked it perfectly.

688
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 2: Yeah I thought it. I thought they both got their theirs,

689
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 2: you know, their spots in and then I thought I thought,

690
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 2: you know, putting him to sleep across jacket and him

691
00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 2: not being you know, he didn't tap out, he he

692
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 2: just you know passed out. Kind of They've done this

693
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 2: hundreds That's how Oscar beat Bailey. You know, they've done

694
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 2: it a hundred times. But uh yeah, CBS gave it

695
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,360
Speaker 2: a B plus. I'd probably give it a B plus

696
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 2: or an A minus. I mean it was you know,

697
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,840
Speaker 2: if you're you know, if you have a match, that

698
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 2: has to be an exclamation point. I thought that was

699
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 2: like probably the best way to do it.

700
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 1: So yes, most definitely. And then finally the main event,

701
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 1: which I was actually kind of shocked about this because

702
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 1: I saw this on Twitter and I remember I sent

703
00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 1: it to you that this is the first time I

704
00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 1: think I will think since what twenty fifteen. I think

705
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 1: is what the tweet said, that a women's matched main

706
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:12,240
Speaker 1: event at NXT Takeover and NXT's kind of the start

707
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: of the women's revolution, which is a Shaker tivy.

708
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was Yeah, that was surprising to me too.

709
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 2: I thought I remember at least something else between then

710
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 2: and now, but probably not so. But yeah, so Charlotte

711
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 2: ray Ripley, and how do you say your last name?

712
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 2: Shear Sherry.

713
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,799
Speaker 1: I feel horrible for trying to figure this out. This

714
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,319
Speaker 1: is this is where you know, Lena and KB come

715
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 1: involved and they start yelling at us, we're saying it

716
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:49,799
Speaker 1: the wrong name.

717
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 2: I think it's Eo Sharai. I think that's that's.

718
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: I think that's what it is.

719
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 2: That's what I try to say. Sometimes it doesn't land

720
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 2: that well.

721
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: So it's that Tennessee accent it is.

722
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 2: But uh yeah shit, I mean yeah.

723
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 1: It's like two rednecks trying to figure out wrote Yeah, no,

724
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 1: it's it's Shari. Shari and I remember we had this conversation.

725
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: I want to say, maybe had a Ring of Honor

726
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: pay per view, maybe at that Ring of Honor show,

727
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,399
Speaker 1: maybe at RAW like KB like we're trying to say

728
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,439
Speaker 1: her name in kV was like no, no, no, this

729
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 1: is how you say her name. That's her love or

730
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 1: you know, something like that. I remember that. But I mean,

731
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:41,840
Speaker 1: all in all, great match. I think I think Charlotte

732
00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 1: is now the person that they're like, Okay, we're going

733
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 1: to put you in a match with Charlotte because we

734
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 1: need you to go over. Charlotte will put you over

735
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,439
Speaker 1: but still win the match and make you look good.

736
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 1: But she didn't win last night. Yeah you probably heard

737
00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,400

744
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 2: I guess the picture that Gargano that was that was

745
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:24,959
Speaker 2: Michael Hayes, but it was him portraying Doc Hendricks, which

746
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,360
Speaker 2: is I guess that's who he used to be. That

747
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:33,360
Speaker 2: was his backstage name, and he uh, I guess he

748
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 2: refused to do it. I guess Triple A chass team.

749
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 2: You know what he wanted to do and he said no,

750
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 2: thank you. So that's you know. I guess they got

751
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 2: almost everything. I don't I don't remember. Okay, So this

752
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 2: is from Sean Ross's sap at Fight Full Our Buddy

753
00:41:58,040 --> 00:41:59,879
Speaker 2: over there? Is that the name of it?

754
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 4: I don't know.

755
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 1: This was just how professional we are with this podcast

756
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 1: right now, yep, it says.

757
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:12,200
Speaker 2: Triple H says. The culmination of Charlotte's of Charlotte's NXT

758
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 2: booking will make sense in three to four months, but

759
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,480
Speaker 2: right now, it looks like she won the Royal Rumble

760
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:20,760
Speaker 2: over Shana and minimized her Mania match halted Ripley's momentum

761
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,720
Speaker 2: and exhausted a bunch of champion versus champion matches without

762
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 2: being pinned.

763
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 1: So I did it.

764
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 2: So not everyone, I guess, was thrilled that Charlotte went

765
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 2: to NXT. And you know, I don't know. It's it's

766
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 2: it's like if they did it to you know, put

767
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:47,839
Speaker 2: NXT on the map or help with ratings or blah

768
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 2: blah blah, Like I can see that, but like the

769
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 2: ratings have sucked since she became champion, you know, because

770
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 2: of the pandemic and crap. So like, I mean, you

771
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 2: could you could put Rick Flair on NXT with the belt.

772
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 2: No one's gonna watch, it doesn't matter. So I mean

773
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 2: it does bring up a good point. It's just like,

774
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:11,720
Speaker 2: you know, did you do this to further the brand

775
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 2: and further the other two competitors or does just Charlotte

776
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 2: always have to have a belt?

777
00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:19,840
Speaker 1: Well, And that was the one thing I noticed that, like,

778
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 1: wwe put out and uh, you know we're recording this today,

779
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,280
Speaker 1: Today's Monday. We're gonna put it out later this evening.

780
00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 1: But the one thing I noticed was like, WW put

781
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:33,440
Speaker 1: out Charlotte Flair confronts Oscar. I'm like why, Like, she

782
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,600
Speaker 1: just lost the title, and now you're throwing her on

783
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,240
Speaker 1: raw to go against Oscar. Like we've seen this story

784
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:39,360
Speaker 1: a million times.

785
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and there's still people, I mean, there's

786
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 2: still people that you know, her beating Oscar a WrestleMania

787
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,799
Speaker 2: was pointless, you know. I mean, they're they're starting to

788
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,759
Speaker 2: build Oscar back up, and you know, she's kind of

789
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 2: back to her level she was when she was in defeated.

790
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 2: But it's just like, why would you send her into

791
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 2: the ditch for two years just to build her back

792
00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 2: up to the same position when you could have just

793
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,279
Speaker 2: had her beat Charlotte at WrestleMania and be done with.

794
00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:15,560
Speaker 1: It, right. And the thing, and we've talked about this

795
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 1: numerous times on the show. I love that they just say, Oscar,

796
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 1: you know what, go out there and do whatever you want,

797
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 1: you know, And they don't say, don't try to, you know,

798
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:30,399
Speaker 1: talk your entire promo in English, because I think that's

799
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 1: the best. I don't want them to sit there and

800
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 1: be like, you know, we need to put like somebody

801
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:41,080
Speaker 1: with Oscar that translates for her. We don't. Being a fan,

802
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 1: I don't want to see that because then that just

803
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 1: kind of like drops that down just a little bit

804
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:47,959
Speaker 1: when Oscar does go on her rants because it's fun

805
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 1: because she gets so animated when she's doing her promos

806
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 1: and like you don't know what she's saying, but you

807
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,960
Speaker 1: get like a couple of the broken English stuff in there,

808
00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:59,840
Speaker 1: and it's like it's great. Like I'm sitting there.

809
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd rather. I'd rather hear her in her own

810
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,839
Speaker 2: voice and and read subtitles than you know, Booker with

811
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:10,759
Speaker 2: a translator or something like that.

812
00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:17,320
Speaker 1: Yes, And I just it's, you know, it's it's it's anyways. Uh.

813
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:19,399
Speaker 2: I guess we can talk about the match now. We're

814
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 2: talking about everything, but but that.

815
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we're just kind of all over the place.

816
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 1: But you know, uh Shari uh won the match spoiler alert,

817
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,960
Speaker 1: which was which kind of shocked everybody. But the one

818
00:45:35,960 --> 00:45:38,479
Speaker 1: thing I did notice at the end after I watched

819
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 1: the video and they I want to say, maybe Botch

820
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,439
Speaker 1: Club might have put it up, but when Shari did

821
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 1: the or Shari did the the moon salt, like her

822
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,440
Speaker 1: knee went right into Rhea's face.

823
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,200
Speaker 2: Oh dude. As soon as that happened, I was just like,

824
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 2: oh fuck, Like I mean, I couldn't even hide it.

825
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:02,279
Speaker 2: And the fact that Rie Ripley laid there through the

826
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 2: through the end of the show. You know, she eventually

827
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:05,480
Speaker 2: got out the ring, but she didn't put her hands

828
00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 2: up on her face, she didn't squint. I mean, she

829
00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,440
Speaker 2: was as professional as you can be. I mean, it

830
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:13,919
Speaker 2: was but that that was a botch and a half.

831
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 2: Holy crap.

832
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I just was like whoa. I was like,

833
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: between that and you know, Damian Priest hitting the stairs,

834
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:23,680
Speaker 1: it's like, those are your two for the night.

835
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 2: And then she shre I was the one that she

836
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 2: she dove off the house set and hit hit both

837
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:36,880
Speaker 2: the Flair and Ripley. So that was cool, but you know,

838
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 2: it's kind of I don't know, it's like I don't know,

839
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 2: like it's almost like they turn It's almost like they

840
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:53,520
Speaker 2: turned the tables on the women competitors way quicker than

841
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,160
Speaker 2: they do the men. So like, so, Ray Ripley was

842
00:46:56,200 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 2: the first NX t UK champion and then she dropped

843
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 2: it to Tony And I mean, at that point, Tony

844
00:47:05,120 --> 00:47:09,480
Speaker 2: might have been like the most popular female wrestler at

845
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 2: least top five on the planet. I mean, she was

846
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:17,799
Speaker 2: just blowing up and then it seemed like she was

847
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:22,799
Speaker 2: the one that they were really pushing, and then she

848
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 2: dropped that title and then you know, they put reover

849
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,359
Speaker 2: an NC and she beat Shana and now she's doing

850
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,920
Speaker 2: all stuff with Charlotte. But now you know, she dropped

851
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 2: to Charlotte and then she just lost this match, and

852
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,680
Speaker 2: it's almost like they're kind of already moving on from her.

853
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,080
Speaker 2: So it's like, and I granted, I mean, ray Ripley's

854
00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 2: like twenty three, I mean, she's got a long time

855
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 2: left in the business, but it's just weird that she's

856
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,359
Speaker 2: already hit these milestones, but then they kind of back

857
00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:48,120
Speaker 2: off and then you know, well, let's do it again,

858
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 2: and then back off and so yeah, but I don't

859
00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,239
Speaker 2: even I don't even I don't even remember the last

860
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 2: time I heard anything about Tony Storm, so I don't know.

861
00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:58,840
Speaker 2: Kind of strange.

862
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is kind of strange, but I think the

863
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: last time like I heard something, and maybe maybe this

864
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 1: was kind of when she dropped it to Rea. But

865
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: after there was that whole situation where somebody like I

866
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 1: want to say, hacked her phone and leaked their photos.

867
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:22,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, well so that happened right before she won the title, right, Yeah,

868
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:24,920
Speaker 2: so that was that was happening within the like a

869
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 2: week or two before their match. Yeah, and I think

870
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:32,200
Speaker 2: I saw maybe around November when they were doing the

871
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 2: like SmackDown Raw NXT stuff at Survivor Series she might

872
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:42,080
Speaker 2: have popped up, but like people were boomer like they

873
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:47,080
Speaker 2: they weren't treating her like a babyface, you know. So

874
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,480
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know. I mean, again, she's

875
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,319
Speaker 2: young too. I think she's like twenty five or twenty six,

876
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:56,600
Speaker 2: so you know, they got a long way to go.

877
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:00,399
Speaker 2: But it's just kind of strange. But anyways, Seebees gave

878
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 2: the match an A minus, and I mean I I'd

879
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 2: probably just give it an A you know. Yeah, and

880
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:16,920
Speaker 2: yeah that minus that last spot the uh that probably

881
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:21,719
Speaker 2: was the best match of the night. So but I

882
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:24,520
Speaker 2: think at you know, the end of the CBS thing says, uh,

883
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 2: this was a brilliant main event, perfectly paced and with

884
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:30,439
Speaker 2: all three women looking outstanding. Flair's timas champion needed to end,

885
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:33,279
Speaker 2: and Shari's champion gives Ripley someone to chase in an

886
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:38,000
Speaker 2: immediately interesting program. So most likely Charlotte will be going

887
00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:41,520
Speaker 2: back to one of the one of the brands. So yeah,

888
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:45,720
Speaker 2: already is I don't know, whatever, let's see what.

889
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 1: Else can we talk about from last night. The other

890
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 1: thing that was kind of funny was they went back

891
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:55,279
Speaker 1: to the old Shawn Michaels pecking at a keyboard. They

892
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:57,880
Speaker 1: had like the old computer, and it was like Sean

893
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,360
Speaker 1: and Triple H and road Dog. And of course Sean

894
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:04,600
Speaker 1: is amazing at what he does. I mean, you know,

895
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:08,080
Speaker 1: I think that maybe he could have one wrestling match left,

896
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: and but just what are you doing with the next

897
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 1: t is awesome? One thing I don't care about, and

898
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,040
Speaker 1: this is breaking off of in your House pay per view,

899
00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 1: but we all saw it last night was the greatest

900
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,799
Speaker 1: wrestling match ever. And this gonna be the last thing

901
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:26,319
Speaker 1: that we talk about because this kind of has just

902
00:50:26,360 --> 00:50:28,480
Speaker 1: been I've been trying to figure this out, but it's

903
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 1: like Edge and Randy Orton Backlash and they're calling it

904
00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,880
Speaker 1: the greatest match ever. The thing that really got me

905
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:37,799
Speaker 1: kind of like what the hell just happened was they

906
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:41,080
Speaker 1: didn't have some cool, you know, promo music to it,

907
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 1: not like a Code Orange or whatever. No offense to

908
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,760
Speaker 1: Panaga the Disco fans or fans of the Greatest Showmen,

909
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,920
Speaker 1: but they played the Greatest Showman's version of the Greatest

910
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 1: Show from Panaga the Disco as the promo music, Like

911
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:55,240
Speaker 1: you gotta come up with something cooler.

912
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:07,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty weird. I've I've heard people, I've heard

913
00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:10,520
Speaker 2: rumblings about the greatest match of all time or whatever

914
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:13,560
Speaker 2: however they're referring to it, And you know, I just

915
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 2: thought it was the same thing we always talk about,

916
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 2: who what are your top five greatest matches of all time?

917
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:19,839
Speaker 2: What are your best you know, what are your top

918
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 2: WrestleMania matches of all time? Like everybody does this this stuff,

919
00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:28,880
Speaker 2: you know, and and yeah, and then they had that

920
00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 2: little whatever teaser, little commercial or whatever, and they showed

921
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,440
Speaker 2: the graphic and everything. I was like, you've got to

922
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:39,560
Speaker 2: be kidding me, like, like this could.

923
00:51:39,320 --> 00:51:43,120
Speaker 1: Be an awesome WWE twenty four documentary of counting down

924
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 1: the biggest matches of whatever, but that's this.

925
00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:51,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I mean, like, you know, I don't I

926
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,840
Speaker 2: don't think Randy Orton is Edge's greatest opponent. And I

927
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 2: don't think Edge is Randy Orton's greatest opponent. So like,

928
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:01,319
Speaker 2: I just don't, like, there's no like legs for this

929
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:05,480
Speaker 2: to stand on. So no, I don't know, sounds really lame.

930
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:10,719
Speaker 2: So it it is very lame, but I guess kind

931
00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:12,919
Speaker 2: of still adjacent to that. I guess we can mention

932
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,280
Speaker 2: his tweet and then Trumpa's response.

933
00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,920
Speaker 1: Yes, so Twitter has been going crazy. You've got Brian

934
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:22,800
Speaker 1: Cage versus Lacy Evans on Twitter, and then you've got

935
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 1: Champa and Randy Orton and of course Randy Orton. I

936
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:32,319
Speaker 1: had the tweet because I retweeted Champa's tweet. Um, it

937
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:39,240
Speaker 1: was great because so Randy Orton, I guess yesterday said

938
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:43,200
Speaker 1: heard hashtag w w E NXT Takeover in your house

939
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:47,520
Speaker 1: was great. Slapping my leg for you guys, sincerely, leg slap,

940
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,480
Speaker 1: And of course Randy has been very critical about NXT

941
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,160
Speaker 1: and leg slap and if you know wrestling, you know

942
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:58,440
Speaker 1: the whole leg slap thing and whatnot. So uh, Champa responded,

943
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 1: my daughter has been having trouble sleeping. Luckily I found

944
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 1: a remedy. Randy Orton matches better than nikeawel sincerely in

945
00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:11,319
Speaker 1: an entire locker room who busted their asses. Yep, give

946
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:13,759
Speaker 1: me that match now, do not give me edge in

947
00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:16,840
Speaker 1: Randy Orton, give me Champa and Orton.

948
00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:23,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that one would be pretty killer, you know.

949
00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't see it happening because Trump has

950
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 2: said if he got called up to Raller SmackDown, he's

951
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:33,960
Speaker 2: going to retire. So I think, I don't know about Gargano,

952
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:36,840
Speaker 2: but I know him like he's he's n XT until

953
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:39,879
Speaker 2: he's DYE. So Orton would have to come down n XT.

954
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:41,200
Speaker 2: You know, I don't see that happening.

955
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:46,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't see that happening. But then we could

956
00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 1: wrap it up now, I guess. I mean, I'm not too.

957
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:52,799
Speaker 2: There's not a time going on right now. You know,

958
00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 2: there's a lot of important stuff going on in the

959
00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:59,640
Speaker 2: world right now, and you know, we're trying to find

960
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,880
Speaker 2: little right spots when we can. And there was a

961
00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:05,279
Speaker 2: quote unquote pay per view last night, so that's what

962
00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:06,080
Speaker 2: we're talking about.

963
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:08,200
Speaker 1: And it was a good pay per view and it

964
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,840
Speaker 1: kind of you know, took your mind off for a

965
00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:18,400
Speaker 1: little bit, you know, and all great stuff and you know,

966
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 1: not really too worried about this Brian Cage and Lacy

967
00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:26,000
Speaker 1: Evans going back and forth, but yeah, they're just bigger

968
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:30,840
Speaker 1: and yeah, oh well, but that does conclude the episode,

969
00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:33,080
Speaker 1: so we we we're kind of getting back in the

970
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 1: swing of things after not talking wrestling for so long

971
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,080
Speaker 1: and we just had guests and we can talk about

972
00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 1: their careers. So now that wrestling's back, FTR has their

973
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:46,880
Speaker 1: first wrestling match on Wednesday night against Butcher and Eminem

974
00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:52,800
Speaker 1: the Blade whatever. I love how FTR called him Eminem,

975
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 1: But then that's another store for another day. But yeah,

976
00:54:56,160 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 1: so we'll kind of talk about what happened with this

977
00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,560
Speaker 1: week on next week's episode. You've got Bells of the

978
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,680
Speaker 1: Brawl doing their live show Thursday night on Twitch, and

979
00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,400
Speaker 1: then of course we take that video, we take the audio,

980
00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:11,360
Speaker 1: and we put it up as a podcast on Friday,

981
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,400
Speaker 1: So definitely check out that. Make sure you're following along

982
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 1: on Twitter. It's Battleground I hr Instagram is Battleground Podcast.

983
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:23,800
Speaker 1: And I guess that's about. Is there anything else you

984
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 1: have to say before we sign off?

985
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:35,320
Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. I think I mean, everything

986
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 2: else that's kind of popped up in the last little

987
00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 2: bit has all been kind of related to, like Black

988
00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:43,880
Speaker 2: Lives Matter, and I just feel if we were going

989
00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:45,919
Speaker 2: to talk about that, we'd kind of dedicate a whole

990
00:55:45,920 --> 00:55:51,600
Speaker 2: episode to it. So but no, I think I think

991
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,280
Speaker 2: we I think we did an adequate job of covering

992
00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 2: that pay per view.

993
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:59,920
Speaker 1: Yes, and that is a wrap. So without further ado,

994
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:01,800
Speaker 1: happy trails and.

995
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:05,920
Speaker 2: What am I supposed to say? A river dirty? I

996
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:06,359
Speaker 2: don't know.

997
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:09,239
Speaker 1: See, we're getting back in the swing of things. This

998
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:10,960

1000
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:14,600
Speaker 1: that note.

1001
00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:17,759
Speaker 2: Either it'll be that or maybe Atafeeder saying I don't know,

1002
00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:18,400
Speaker 2: one of those.

1003
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:20,919
Speaker 1: We'll figure it out, we'll play around with it. We'll

1004
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:23,080
Speaker 1: figure out what the intro to start the show is
