Speaker 1: And now your made Events introducing Nose I'm wrestling When
Speaker 1: Friddy Cheff died Fridy's shoon yea. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome
Speaker 1: to a brand new episode of Wrestling with Freddie now
Speaker 1: known as Wrestling with Friends, and this is the news
Speaker 1: of the week. Seven championship is no more. Thank you Jesus.
Speaker 1: Nicki Cross may have missed the trash can, but she
Speaker 1: didn't miss when she got rid of that rancid title. Also,
Speaker 1: Full Gear a e w S Full Gear that is
Speaker 1: is this Saturday, and hopefully we will see a new
Speaker 1: world champion m j F as he takes on John

Speaker 1: this fuge against l a Night. They say it's respect
Speaker 1: with brand. Yes, Mr Jeff died, buddy, how are you, sir?
Speaker 1: Feeling good man? Thank you as always to our news reporter.
Speaker 1: That wasn't me, that was our news reporter, Walter winchell. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he keeps forgetting his keeps, forgetting his sind off. You know,
Speaker 1: his sign off, his signature Walter apologies, good evening and
Speaker 1: good night Monday night. Raw. Um. I feel like we
Speaker 1: cursed the young man Mustafa Holly. We spoke kindly about
Speaker 1: him once, and ever since they have utterly humiliated this
Speaker 1: poor man. So someone at w W E hates this
Speaker 1: show and anyone that we celebrate. Buff He was gonna
Speaker 1: wrestle Set Rollins in the Open Challenge United States Championship
Speaker 1: Match because Rollins is awesome and probably the best thing
Speaker 1: on Raw right now. And Bobby Lashley came in and
Speaker 1: completely humiliated this poor young man, beat his ass and
Speaker 1: then when he got up, Bobby picked him up and
Speaker 1: threw him over a dumpster, never to be seen again.
Speaker 1: For the remainder of the segment, it was, I don't
Speaker 1: know why they're doing this to this poor guy. I
Speaker 1: don't know who he's piste off I got. I hope
Speaker 1: it's not because we said nice things. I wasn't even
Speaker 1: that nice. I was like, I didn't know he was
Speaker 1: good on the mic. You but he was pretty good.
Speaker 1: But he's pissed someone off there to the point where
Speaker 1: he said, like, yo, let me go. I hate it here,
Speaker 1: and they're like, yeah, all right, we'll let you go,
Speaker 1: but we're gonna make sure your name is worthless by
Speaker 1: the time you hit the streets, because all they do
Speaker 1: is have him staring at other men's nuts, talking about
Speaker 1: other men's nuts, and getting the holy shit kicked out
Speaker 1: of him. Um. Jeff, I even laughed at this, and
Speaker 1: not because I enjoyed it, because I was just like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, I can't believe they're just burying this
Speaker 1: poor bastard. This is terrible. What did you think about
Speaker 1: this when you saw I'm I'm I'm set, because like
Speaker 1: you said, like, um, I think I don't know if
Speaker 1: we were recording yet when you said it, but like
Speaker 1: it's like w B has a gift for just getting
Speaker 1: rid of like someone's gonna get a big break, it seems,
Speaker 1: or they're getting a big push, and they just it
Speaker 1: just stopped Brunstrom and just got back to w B,
Speaker 1: and it already seems like they're like, we gotta get
Speaker 1: rid of this guy, like like just one bad tweet
Speaker 1: or once something happens. Uh. Most tough of Ali was
Speaker 1: just getting his push after sitting around waiting his turn
Speaker 1: for a decade, and now now it looks like he's
Speaker 1: gotten obliterated and murdered. Um, there's another example of something
Speaker 1: that oh l a night like he's just now getting
Speaker 1: it's over him. It's over. So I don't know what
Speaker 1: they're it makes no sense. Head budded on this on
Speaker 1: Friday Night's smack Down gets up and goes, where do
Speaker 1: you go where? That's insane? Just sitting there like you
Speaker 1: know what that there we were saying off there. They're
Speaker 1: better at killing pushes than they are creating them. That's
Speaker 1: what it feels really confusing. Um. I was ticked off
Speaker 1: about it because I like I like most toughly too.
Speaker 1: You could mid card Ali for the rest of his
Speaker 1: career and and have some legit stuff. He looked like
Speaker 1: he could really hold his own on the mic. He
Speaker 1: was doing a solid job against seth Rawlins. But yeah,
Speaker 1: r I p to Mustaf Ali man, like I hardly
Speaker 1: knew you, brother, I don't. I don't know how they
Speaker 1: can pick up the pieces on that one. That was
Speaker 1: pretty much letting everybody know that, uh, he can't hang
Speaker 1: and he does, he's not meant to be there and
Speaker 1: I guess it's the job expressed, so that's you know,
Speaker 1: they're unfortunately, that's the business. I don't I think it
Speaker 1: happens like that in Hollywood, But in the wrestling business
Speaker 1: at least a w w E, if you want out
Speaker 1: of your contract, they make you as worthless as possible
Speaker 1: when your contract is over, so that you cannot make
Speaker 1: money anywhere else, and that kinda that sucks pretty bad. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they were like, well, Bobby Lashly's gotta eat, get out there,
Speaker 1: crush that boy, like that's literally it was. It was embarrassing.
Speaker 1: Bobby Lashly is not hungry. Bobby Lashly is full like
Speaker 1: he's good man. He doesn't have to end careers to
Speaker 1: be over and have people dig him like everyone I
Speaker 1: know loves Bobby like he doesn't have to do. He
Speaker 1: lost the brock and he still won, like he's all good.
Speaker 1: Just put him back with m v P. Let that
Speaker 1: group get back together, because they had a cool group
Speaker 1: man him, Shelton and Cedric with with m VP being
Speaker 1: the main vocal, the main voice for their group. I
Speaker 1: don't know why you have to destroy someone just to
Speaker 1: give someone a segment, and they've done it two weeks
Speaker 1: in a row, so they're getting even better at it
Speaker 1: because practice makes perfect. Speaking of ending things for people,
Speaker 1: Seth Rollins did get his open challenge. It was against
Speaker 1: Bobby Lashly. They had a killer match, and at the
Speaker 1: end of it, Austin Theory came out to cash in
Speaker 1: his money in the bank, not against the Universal Champion,
Speaker 1: which is the only reason anyone would ever compete for
Speaker 1: the money in the bank briefcase, but to cash in
Speaker 1: on the US title, which is far less believable of
Speaker 1: a story. However, one could argue, if you're trying to
Speaker 1: make the US title means something, maybe that's why you
Speaker 1: do it, although that's not a storyline I would buy
Speaker 1: in any way, shape or form. I'm just trying to
Speaker 1: see maybe another side of it. The more likely is
Speaker 1: he was Vince's guy. Austin Theory. People did not like
Speaker 1: how quickly he was getting pushed, and this is the
Speaker 1: end of the Austin Theory push, and I'm sure they'll say, well,
Speaker 1: we're gonna build him up slowly and things like that. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: in the wrestling business, once you kind of dead, somebody
Speaker 1: wrestling fans forget about real quick and they don't believe
Speaker 1: in them again. Austin came in. Seth Rawlins is beat
Speaker 1: down and Austin is for sure gonna win, and Seth
Speaker 1: Rollins wouldn't have any of it. Man. Um, there's a
Speaker 1: little help from Bobby Lashly which protected Austin a little bit.
Speaker 1: But Seth kicked out of everything, fought like a baby
Speaker 1: face from underneath even though he's a heel, although there
Speaker 1: are no faces or heels anymore. We talked about that
Speaker 1: last week. When you're that good, you can kind of
Speaker 1: float in between. And um, he ruined the cash in
Speaker 1: and Austin, theory, is now the youngest money in the
Speaker 1: bank winner to ever lose the money their money in
Speaker 1: the bank match. Um, So, I don't know where he
Speaker 1: goes from here. Man, you could see he was getting
Speaker 1: a little better on the mic when Vince was there
Speaker 1: every week, you know, the more the more time they
Speaker 1: gave him. He was he was failing in front of
Speaker 1: a live audience, but he was learning from those failures
Speaker 1: and getting a little better. And then once Vince was gone,
Speaker 1: you really saw, you saw his confidence fade him and
Speaker 1: buried him in a promo. Say you know, Vince, your
Speaker 1: daddy's not here anymore. And it was kind of all
Speaker 1: downhill from there. So I was I personally was waiting
Speaker 1: for this, But were you surprised to see him come out?
Speaker 1: Were you surprised to see him lose? I have said
Speaker 1: that I'm not too crazy about Austin Theory just in
Speaker 1: general on this podcast before I was wondering when Logan
Speaker 1: Paul did his like selfie frog splash, and Logan Paul
Speaker 1: keeps taking the selfies and when he comes out and saying,
Speaker 1: I remember thinking like, hmm, I wonder if that is
Speaker 1: annoying Austin Theory. You know what I'm saying, like, that's
Speaker 1: kind of like his thing, and now Logan's here, he's
Speaker 1: doing I didn't even think about that. And then also
Speaker 1: I Austin did a Austin Theory did a pedigree during
Speaker 1: the match. Has he done that before? Is that like
Speaker 1: a like one of his finishing things? He was trying
Speaker 1: to insult Seth Rollins by getting Seth with one of
Speaker 1: Seth's finishers, which Hunter sort of gave when Seth defeated
Speaker 1: defeated him and was kind of became the one. So
Speaker 1: that's in in Rollins uh sort of arsenal of weapons now,
Speaker 1: and so he was trying to humiliate him with his
Speaker 1: own mook because I and I my memory serves me right.
Speaker 1: I watched a lot of wrestling post money at raw
Speaker 1: because it's the first thing we watched. I think Seth
Speaker 1: tried to get him with his a town down previously
Speaker 1: to that, or one of or one of Austin's other
Speaker 1: moves that's in his arsenal, and Austin was like, oh,
Speaker 1: we're gonna sold me all and sold you hay, but
Speaker 1: it didn't work. It failed. Sir, Well, I'm over Austin theory.
Speaker 1: And I hope everyone else says I got nothing against
Speaker 1: him personal, but I just I don't. I'm not. I
Speaker 1: don't really care. I think it's it seems like it's happening.
Speaker 1: It seems like it's unraveling. I mean, for him to lose,
Speaker 1: the him to cash in, and then it just becomes
Speaker 1: like an obliteration, like Bobby Lashly just kept throwing him
Speaker 1: through that post over and over him, and like it's
Speaker 1: it was weird. Bobby apparently really had to eat that night.
Speaker 1: Apparently Bobby's not over U remind everyone how tough he is.
Speaker 1: And with that, let's move on to a w generational talent.
Speaker 1: He's got to be the best, right, Like, nobody out
Speaker 1: there thinks someone's better than than then m jf Right,
Speaker 1: No one thinks that he didn't even have to rest
Speaker 1: This week, they just aired an interview that he did
Speaker 1: on another television show. He's on an interview for bar
Speaker 1: Stool Sports. They literally didn't even spend money or time
Speaker 1: filming him. They just took footage from another show and
Speaker 1: put it on their show, and it was probably the
Speaker 1: highest rated segment of the night. I didn't even know
Speaker 1: it was a Barstool Sports interview because they don't even
Speaker 1: air any of the questions that the guys were asking.
Speaker 1: They just aired this like three and a half four
Speaker 1: minute promo that he cuts in Mike looking into a camera.
Speaker 1: And like you said, he didn't talk about it like
Speaker 1: a match. He talked about it as history. And he's
Speaker 1: going to be the face of not just a e W,
Speaker 1: but the face of professional wrestling. And I'll be damned
Speaker 1: if I didn't believe every single word this deep. I know,
Speaker 1: I'm like the king of blow and smoke up Max's
Speaker 1: ass because I love the guy. Know you like him
Speaker 1: because he's the best. I love that he hits him
Speaker 1: what he's doing, all this eloquent history, and then he
Speaker 1: goes and also, John, you're a low life scumbag piece
Speaker 1: of ship. All right, you're from Cincinnati. I mean, like,
Speaker 1: just to throw that in. It's so funny to me
Speaker 1: to just then also call a guy a low life
Speaker 1: scumbad piece of ship. It was so so good and
Speaker 1: so fun He's such an asshole. We're not a still
Speaker 1: love bad guys, but I don't care. Man. This is
Speaker 1: the modern era where, like you said, Hollywood, bad guys
Speaker 1: have backstories that make us feel sorry for them. Now,
Speaker 1: he's so good on the mic that it makes it
Speaker 1: tough to watch other wrestlers on the mic. That that's
Speaker 1: how good he is. I watched Gunther like come out
Speaker 1: and do it like a little thing, and I go,
Speaker 1: oh god, that was embarrassing. They should shoot that a
Speaker 1: hundred times until it's better. And m JF is just
Speaker 1: he's that good. He makes everything else look tough, too
Speaker 1: tough to watch. It's tough for guys to hang with
Speaker 1: him on the mic. It's although sometimes he makes people better,
Speaker 1: like he made Wheeler. You two look good. Shout out
Speaker 1: to j lethal for looking great again. Damn that finish
Speaker 1: her so pretty um. Still don't know why he has
Speaker 1: people talking for him. Still don't know why Jeff Jared
Speaker 1: speaking for him and that other guys speaking for him
Speaker 1: because Jay Lethal's money on the microphone. But for some reason,
Speaker 1: Tony doesn't want to hear his voice. I don't know why.
Speaker 1: But but he looked good as well as far as
Speaker 1: promos go, though, and this was the main one that
Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about Syria and britt Baker got
Speaker 1: in the ring Siria or page as everyone knew her
Speaker 1: at w W, E has had some good moments and
Speaker 1: some rough moments as far as promos go, and this
Speaker 1: week she surpassed her best moments. You saw a real emotion,
Speaker 1: you saw real happiness, you saw a lot of pain,
Speaker 1: and she shared a lot of personal public stuff that
Speaker 1: she's gone through as far as being humiliated on the internet,
Speaker 1: drug addiction injuries. She said, I've given my neck for
Speaker 1: this business, and she meant that literally and figuratively. And
Speaker 1: she even had to pause a little bit, not for
Speaker 1: audience reaction, just to kind of like compose herself again.
Speaker 1: And Britt Baker wouldn't have in any of it. She
Speaker 1: just sat there like bitch, I don't care what you've sacrificed.
Speaker 1: I don't care that I've only been here for three years.
Speaker 1: I'm already better than you. And Britt has been the
Speaker 1: one holding the division together before Tony Storm got there.
Speaker 1: It was because thunder Rosa just didn't have it on
Speaker 1: the mic. I know she's battling an injury and I
Speaker 1: want my Latinez to get over, dude, but I don't
Speaker 1: think it's gonna happen for Thunder. So she's been the
Speaker 1: one holding this together and to finally have someone else
Speaker 1: that can match her on the mic and in the ring,
Speaker 1: and she announced that they are going to wrestle at
Speaker 1: the pay per view this weekend on Saturday. I was
Speaker 1: so excited Tony Storm got there. Just Britt Baker. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Britt Baker and Tony Storm. Who's who's been allowed to
Speaker 1: shine there? But Tony Storm wasn't there the first three years.
Speaker 1: She just got there and it's been only Britt Baker,
Speaker 1: which is why she was the champ. And it was
Speaker 1: why Page or Sarria was saying, like, Yo, you were
Speaker 1: handed this. He had to hand this to you. I'm
Speaker 1: excited to see a women's match in a w for
Speaker 1: the first time. Although I am hyped to see Tony
Speaker 1: Storm and Jamie Hayter as well. I just hope Jamie wins.
Speaker 1: I don't think she's gonna because she's still young, but
Speaker 1: I would love to see a heel champ. What did
Speaker 1: you think about this promo? I love to I agree
Speaker 1: with you, but it's also kind of confusing to me
Speaker 1: that the more female wrestlers have left w B to
Speaker 1: go over to a w They must be witnessing that
Speaker 1: and seeing that, like you know that britt Baker's and
Speaker 1: Tony s from the only ones that are basically ever
Speaker 1: getting anything over there when it comes to female wrestling. UM,
Speaker 1: it just seems strange to me. But I love this
Speaker 1: urrise there. I think it's gonna be awesome. I'm still
Speaker 1: not used to that name, Soriyah, very weird for me
Speaker 1: just call her that, UM, but I think I think
Speaker 1: it's gonna be good. And I'm also excited. We've known
Speaker 1: her his page for so long. All I know her
Speaker 1: as UM. But I think that it's also exciting that
Speaker 1: it'll be We don't have to wait long to see
Speaker 1: these two fight. I get to watch it this this Saturday,
Speaker 1: so I'm excited about that. I was pumped. The whole
Speaker 1: thing went over well for me and Britt Breaker respect
Speaker 1: on the Shawn Michael's jacket, I loved it, yo. I
Speaker 1: love everything about Burt Baker. I totally love her. I
Speaker 1: love and not in like, not in a weird creepy way,
Speaker 1: like I love her the way I love l A
Speaker 1: Night And I wanted to marry l A Night last week.
Speaker 1: I told you that. And on the other end of
Speaker 1: the women's division there, I'm very excited to see this
Speaker 1: stupidiculous storyline between Nyla Rose and Jade Cargo finally gets
Speaker 1: squashed and put to bed. You tell me, in what
Speaker 1: world of combat sports would one fighter be able to
Speaker 1: steal the title of another one and not have to
Speaker 1: give it back. This is the most ridiculous storyline. This
Speaker 1: is how the storyline should have gone. On Week one,
Speaker 1: Nila Rose steals the title. At the end of that show,
Speaker 1: Jake Cargio goes to her boss, Tony Combat stage and goes, hey,
Speaker 1: get me my title back. That bitch stole it, and
Speaker 1: then Tony goes, yeah, if you don't want to get fired,
Speaker 1: give me the title back, and then Nil Rose goes,
Speaker 1: I don't want to get fired here, and that's the
Speaker 1: end of that story. And I would only have to
Speaker 1: endure it for one freaking week. Instead, it has been
Speaker 1: week after week after week of nonsense where she's stealing
Speaker 1: her pretend car, her belt, trying to steal like all
Speaker 1: this stuff, and it's so goofy and so corny, and
Speaker 1: it's nothing against Nyla and it's nothing against Jade. This
Speaker 1: story sucks the person that came up with this story.
Speaker 1: This is not a good idea. It has been unbearable
Speaker 1: to watch. I hated every single moment of it, and
Speaker 1: I really hope that this is the end of it
Speaker 1: and she can move on to someone else, because I
Speaker 1: don't want to see these two wrestle at all. And again,
Speaker 1: it has nothing to do with either one of them.
Speaker 1: It's solely has to do with the story. Sucks. Yeah,
Speaker 1: who wrote this story? Vince McMahon for real, that's what
Speaker 1: it feels like, Vince mcmon. Vince McMahon. The other day,
Speaker 1: I had my car stolen and it was the worst
Speaker 1: feeling in the world. We should have someone steel or car,
Speaker 1: and like steel or belt. When he would get a
Speaker 1: hair up his asked, Jeff, it was impossible to talk
Speaker 1: him out of the idea, and it happened so many
Speaker 1: times in the short period of time that I worked
Speaker 1: there where I mean, I would even talk to him
Speaker 1: after the production meeting when everyone left and be like, Vince,
Speaker 1: we can't do this, like this is not it's not
Speaker 1: gonna play and he just laugh at me. Dude, he
Speaker 1: just laughed right at my face and be like I
Speaker 1: could do whatever I want, God damn it. And I'm
Speaker 1: just like, yo, like, you have to at least tell
Speaker 1: talent that you're gimmicking the chair so that when he
Speaker 1: sits in it, it's gonna break. And this was a
Speaker 1: rib that he just pulled on live TV on Big
Speaker 1: Show where the chair Big Show was gonna sit him
Speaker 1: when he was gonna read a Santa Claus story because
Speaker 1: that's good TV was gonna break when he sat at it.
Speaker 1: And I was just like, Jesus, He's like, and you
Speaker 1: better not freak and tell him. I was like, what
Speaker 1: am I gonna do here? Man, Like every creative bone
Speaker 1: in my body hates this, Every ounce of morality I
Speaker 1: have hates this, Like, but that's my boss. Like, what
Speaker 1: am I gonna do? I told Big Show and Big
Speaker 1: Show didn't care. He was like, I'll play it off door.
Speaker 1: So let's move on to something that we book love Friday,
Speaker 1: and that's SmackDown. That might be the best smackdn You've
Speaker 1: seen it a long time, Yeah, in a very long time.
Speaker 1: And I'll be damned, like the first match was is
Speaker 1: my best of the week. Best of it was the
Speaker 1: New Day versus the Unified Undisputed Tag Team Champions, the
Speaker 1: us Brothers from the Bloodline, and there was more at
Speaker 1: stake than just the titles, because the New Day, who
Speaker 1: built themselves up from nothing when they created this group,
Speaker 1: they were boomed and that whole clap clap clap that
Speaker 1: New Day rocks. It started. New Day sucks, the fans
Speaker 1: hated them, and they became the longest reigning tag team
Speaker 1: champions ever at a four thirty one day rain title
Speaker 1: ring the USOS. Since forming the Bloodline and coming together
Speaker 1: with Roman, we're on the verge of beating that. And
Speaker 1: they cut a promo last week that really made me
Speaker 1: want to watch this match where they were talking about like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you were you were great, but we're better. You don't
Speaker 1: have the pressure, we have this that and then Xavier
Speaker 1: basically breaks down what I just said, Like, you know,
Speaker 1: we built this from nothing, Like you had your second generation,
Speaker 1: third generation, you had your dad's and your grandfather's to
Speaker 1: get you in this business, to get you the opportunities
Speaker 1: you have. We had to do everything ourselves. It was
Speaker 1: a back and forth. I knew this match was gonna
Speaker 1: be great, Jeff. They went for twenty four minutes, two
Speaker 1: commercial breaks, and told four or five different stories within
Speaker 1: this match. It was back and forth. It I loved.
Speaker 1: I was so emotionally and I'm forty six years old
Speaker 1: and I was emotionally invested in a pretend fight on television.
Speaker 1: It was like watching Jackie Chan at the end of
Speaker 1: the movie when he fights the guy that's been beating
Speaker 1: his ask the whole time, and everybody loves Jackie Chan
Speaker 1: because he's so vulnerable and sweet. He's like Bambi at
Speaker 1: the when his when his when his mom gets killed,
Speaker 1: with those eyes and looking up at everybody because Jackie
Speaker 1: is so little and you're like, oh, it's Jackie. He's
Speaker 1: so sweet. And then he just gets beat down for
Speaker 1: ninety minutes and then in the final eleven he finally
Speaker 1: kick some ass, and you're emotionally invested and that's how
Speaker 1: I felt this whole fight. Man, they had great false finishes.
Speaker 1: They showed both sides started showing frustration when the moves
Speaker 1: that they were sure we're gonna be the finish weren't
Speaker 1: the finish. Then they all just said, screw it, let's
Speaker 1: just fight set up his fight in the middle of
Speaker 1: the ring. This was top shelf wrestling for me. I
Speaker 1: loved all twenty four minutes and it's my best of
Speaker 1: the week. And it better not be your worst of
Speaker 1: the week, Jeff, for the podcast is over right now,
Speaker 1: you're gonna be disappointed, because I there's no way that
Speaker 1: could be the worst of the week. It was awesome. Um,
Speaker 1: did you know that the us were gonna win? No,
Speaker 1: Woods wouldn't tell me. I was texting with him. Um,
Speaker 1: after they did the promo of the week before. I
Speaker 1: was like, man, guys really got me hyped. And he
Speaker 1: texted me back, We're gonna try to paint a masterpiece
Speaker 1: and that's all he wrote me. They did. It was very,
Speaker 1: very good. Bro. Instinctually I figured the USOS would win
Speaker 1: because there was hot right now. Andy has kind of
Speaker 1: taken a step back so that other tag teams can
Speaker 1: have opportunities, but I figured the USS would win. They
Speaker 1: deserve to win with the work that they've been putting up,
Speaker 1: just on Jay's back alone, like the storyline that he's
Speaker 1: had with kind of going against Roman from time to time,
Speaker 1: hating Sammy Zane, just that alone. They deserved to win,
Speaker 1: and they deserve to break the record, which they now will.
Speaker 1: I've been saying this. I've been saying this for a
Speaker 1: few few years now. We need a new new day.
Speaker 1: We need them to stop with the comedy act, in
Speaker 1: my opinion, and and because they're there's such a good stable,
Speaker 1: those three dudes, like there's such a good stable. We
Speaker 1: love them, we've learned to love them. But they're kind
Speaker 1: of a comedy act. It's with the popsicles and the
Speaker 1: boodios and the trumpet and the remember one wstum ating
Speaker 1: they had him hosted. They were like hosting rest. They
Speaker 1: weren't even wrestling. It's like, I want to watch these
Speaker 1: dudes win when they can't work for whatever reason, maybe
Speaker 1: one of them is hurt or maybe uh they need
Speaker 1: to get they've been over for so long. They need
Speaker 1: to give other team is an opportunity. But they also
Speaker 1: know that Woods is one of the best talkers they
Speaker 1: have and one of the best entertainers they have, so
Speaker 1: I think they try to find other spots for them,
Speaker 1: and that's why they do a lot of that kind
Speaker 1: of stuff. L. A. Knight was in a backstage segment
Speaker 1: and they've been given him this This thought was a
Speaker 1: really great push man, and I thought they were gonna
Speaker 1: start pushing him towards someone that he could beat and
Speaker 1: then he would be maybe in the I C Picture
Speaker 1: or a U S title picture. He can't because he's
Speaker 1: not unraw, but the I C Picture or at least,
Speaker 1: you know, to the mid cards. And instead Bray Wyatt
Speaker 1: came out, who I tried to tell y'all wasn't a heel.
Speaker 1: I tried to tell y'all, you guys are. People were complaining,
Speaker 1: how is he gonna get heat? I said, why would
Speaker 1: you want a baby face to get heats? He's not
Speaker 1: a hel period. Like the crowd loves him. We miss you, Bray,
Speaker 1: I missed you two Like that's not what a heel says.
Speaker 1: Everybody was like, no, no, no, no, we'll look here.
Speaker 1: He went after a heel and had a very strange
Speaker 1: interaction with him about what are you willing to do
Speaker 1: what you willing to sacrifice, and l. A. Knight's response
Speaker 1: was beautiful, you could take those puppets and shove him
Speaker 1: wherever you feel pleasure. I don't judge. And then he
Speaker 1: got mudded in the side of his face, went down
Speaker 1: on the ground. Gray Wyatt casually walked off, and then
Speaker 1: they had him jump up like Daffy Duck when his
Speaker 1: bills sideways from the Duck season Wabbit season gimmick with
Speaker 1: Elmer Fudd and was like, yo, where where did he go?
Speaker 1: Where did he go? And they just made my guy
Speaker 1: look like total ship, which again leads me to believe
Speaker 1: that it's not a conspiracy, that it's real that every
Speaker 1: time we start to like somebody, someone at w W goes, no,
Speaker 1: screw that guy, he's dead, and he is. I don't
Speaker 1: know why they did that to l. A. Knight. He
Speaker 1: looks great, his ship talk is great, his in ring
Speaker 1: work was great, and then he just gets clowned by
Speaker 1: someone who didn't need that moment to be over with
Speaker 1: the crowd, because he's already over with the freaking crowd.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about my man? L A Night? Though?
Speaker 1: I like l A nine, so we agree on that
Speaker 1: it sucked, right, they shouldn't do my men like him that,
Speaker 1: and I think he's great. I just don't. I just
Speaker 1: don't know why they're doing that. So let's close the show.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows the Roman Reigns came out and cut a
Speaker 1: promo and blah blah blah and they're getting ready for
Speaker 1: war games. But that segment wasn't anything exciting. So I'd
Speaker 1: love to close it with the full gear card, the
Speaker 1: a W pay per view, and we'll go through the
Speaker 1: matches and you tell me which matches you're hyped for
Speaker 1: and which ones that you're like hey, and I'll do
Speaker 1: the same. Are you ready? I'm ready for the a
Speaker 1: e W World Championship, the only championship that truly matters,
Speaker 1: that A e W. We've got John Moxley versus m JF.
Speaker 1: We love this guy and we like John Moxley as well.
Speaker 1: So you're hyped for this, right, very very very hyped,
Speaker 1: and I'm hoping that m JF win. I think m
Speaker 1: JF has to win. I think Moxley's vacation. But this
Speaker 1: was in the like Wrestling News got put on hold
Speaker 1: when all the CM punk trap happened and they put
Speaker 1: the belt on who they felt was the best guy
Speaker 1: to lose it to to Max, and it was right
Speaker 1: when he was gonna have his vacation and he canceled him.
Speaker 1: So I'm pretty sure now he's going to receive his vacation.
Speaker 1: He's going to get his vacation. Him and Renee, who
Speaker 1: I love doing the interviews back there. She will not
Speaker 1: be there for for a couple of weeks while they
Speaker 1: go someplace warm and tropical. I'm sure because I think
Speaker 1: they live in Ohio and it is definitely not warm
Speaker 1: and tropical. The a e W Interim Women's World Championship.
Speaker 1: First of all, this should not be an interim championship.
Speaker 1: It should be for the actual world title because Thunder
Speaker 1: Rossa has been out forever, so they should just make
Speaker 1: it the title and when Thunder comes back, she can
Speaker 1: get a shot at it, at what she will call
Speaker 1: her title because she never lost it. And it's gonna
Speaker 1: be Tony Storm versus my new favorite from England, Jamie Hater.
Speaker 1: I love this chick. I really hope she wins because
Speaker 1: she's getting pretty damn good on the mic. I think
Speaker 1: she would be a great young women's champion. I love
Speaker 1: hell champions more than baby face champions. What say you, sir? Not,
Speaker 1: I don't care at all about this match. If I'm honest,
Speaker 1: I'm not that hyped, don't care. I love Tony Storm,
Speaker 1: I like Jimmy Hayter a little bit. Um, don't you
Speaker 1: know she's whatever? I'm I think that I was being
Speaker 1: more excited about this match. If we didn't know that
Speaker 1: Sarria and Sria is going to be fighting with Britt Baker,
Speaker 1: I would have cared more. But now I don't really
Speaker 1: care about this match. That's yeah, that's the big that's
Speaker 1: the big women's match. I'll give you that. I'll give
Speaker 1: you that stole their heat, stole all their heat, all right.
Speaker 1: Next up is the a e W World Tag Team
Speaker 1: Championship via Claimed, who I've really grown to like a
Speaker 1: lot man. I didn't know anything about him, and every
Speaker 1: week I like him more and more. Versus Keith Lee
Speaker 1: and Swerved Strickland. What say you, Mr Di Lee. I'm
Speaker 1: very excited for this. You have put me over on Swerve.
Speaker 1: You have convinced me like you You've You've been gushing
Speaker 1: about them, so I've watched a lot more of him,
Speaker 1: like on YouTube and stuff, and he's he's awesome. I
Speaker 1: think the Acclaimed are gonna win. And I think this
Speaker 1: is gonna be the breakup between Keith Lee and Swerve,
Speaker 1: and I think it's gonna lead to a Swerve versus
Speaker 1: Keith Lee rivalry. They've had some tension in the past.
Speaker 1: They had Rick Ross on the show a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago when Keith was like, yo, man, you didn't
Speaker 1: return my text and and Rick Ross was like, hey,
Speaker 1: we'll keeping it positive. We're keeping everything positive. It wasn't
Speaker 1: the best promo, but he did his thing. But I
Speaker 1: think this is the end. Next up is the Ring
Speaker 1: of Honor World Championship Chris Jericho, the Champion the Show
Speaker 1: versus Claudio Costagnoli versus Brian Danielson versus Sammy Cavara. Um.
Speaker 1: This is a crazy match. I'm not gonna say I'm
Speaker 1: too hyped about it because there's four dudes fighting for
Speaker 1: one title. I'd rather just see one on ones. I
Speaker 1: like what Jericho has been doing challenging former Ring of
Speaker 1: Honor champions. I still think Claudio should be the champ,
Speaker 1: but I will say this, the storyline they put behind
Speaker 1: this makes it work because Jericho has gotten me hipped
Speaker 1: to a lot of guys that I didn't even know.
Speaker 1: We're Ring of Honor champions, guys whose names I'd never
Speaker 1: heard before, and he's given all of them an opportunity,
Speaker 1: and I think it's been pretty cool. But Chris Jericho
Speaker 1: has to retain. My prediction is total retention. I don't
Speaker 1: know it's gonna be total championship retention by Chris Jericho.
Speaker 1: I say that Chris Jericho is definitely going to keep
Speaker 1: the title, but I want Claudio to win the time
Speaker 1: I want him. I'm I'm. What I want and what
Speaker 1: I think are gonna happen in two different things. But
Speaker 1: I'll be very happy with Claudia wins. Next the TBS Championship.
Speaker 1: Here it is Jake Cargill, who we love, versus Nyla Rose.
Speaker 1: I have no desire to watch this match. I may
Speaker 1: just cook some food and focus on not burning things
Speaker 1: while this is on and just wait for them to
Speaker 1: say and still undefeated, still champion Jake Cargo, and then
Speaker 1: I never have to hear this storyline again. And please
Speaker 1: come up with a story for this woman. She's special,
Speaker 1: she's learning every week. Please just one good story, for
Speaker 1: God's sakes. What say you, sir, Yeah, I could care
Speaker 1: less about this match. Also, the son of Luke Perry
Speaker 1: May he Rest in peace, Jungle Boy, and he's going
Speaker 1: against his former tag team partner Luca Saurus. And I
Speaker 1: was never really into either one of these guys much
Speaker 1: um outside of the opening music. The like that part
Speaker 1: was always fun. But once Christian Cage got involved, and
Speaker 1: and and Christians always been great on the mic, always
Speaker 1: been great on the mic, and he's been dealing with
Speaker 1: an injury which has really allowed him to be the
Speaker 1: voice for this story. He's actually made it where I'm like, yo,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna check this out. And Luca Soris, so I
Speaker 1: didn't think I would be into I'm starting to like too.
Speaker 1: He's like a gigantic Luca Door So Lucha Soris. He's
Speaker 1: like the Godzilla of Luca Doors and Jungle Boys, mad
Speaker 1: small Bro. He's he's shorter than his daddy was, but
Speaker 1: he jumps around and flies so Brown Stroman doesn't respect him.
Speaker 1: You know that, I'm gonna watch this match, and I'm
Speaker 1: curious to see who's gonna win, because physically there's no
Speaker 1: way that the Jungle Boy can hang with this guy.
Speaker 1: Guy's humongous and just a beast. They were forever together.
Speaker 1: I like anything is steel cage match, as you know,
Speaker 1: it's I love a gimmick. I didn't know that these
Speaker 1: two were gonna be fighting each other, so that's cool,
Speaker 1: and still cage matches. I'm gonna I'm gonna be all
Speaker 1: in on it. That's good. I'm excited. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: let's move on to a match that we're both excited for.
Speaker 1: Soriah formerly known as Page, versus doctor Britt Baker d
Speaker 1: m D. That's right. She's an actual dentist and professional wrestler,
Speaker 1: and I think that's so freaking awesome. And I love
Speaker 1: that her mandible claw is her submission where she's just
Speaker 1: grabbing your teeth and pulling them out basically. I think
Speaker 1: it's genius. I'm really excited for this match, the return
Speaker 1: of Page. People have been waiting for this for a
Speaker 1: long long time, and I honestly think that Sria is
Speaker 1: gonna win the match, although if Britt does win, you
Speaker 1: might be able to get two out of this. I
Speaker 1: don't think you can get three, but I think you
Speaker 1: could get to. That said, my prediction is the artist
Speaker 1: formerly known as Page in a victory one to three,
Speaker 1: clean victory, middle of the ring boom. I think Soriah wins.
Speaker 1: I think that then, and then then I'll be like
Speaker 1: a little chase, like I said, like, I think you'll
Speaker 1: will get two out of this for sure. Um or
Speaker 1: that's what I'm hoping. Also, I like this feud. I
Speaker 1: think we maybe could go a long, long, long long
Speaker 1: time with it, so um it'd be coolest it comes
Speaker 1: in this quick and already wins the belt. I'm they're
Speaker 1: probably gonna do some goofy ship where like it won't
Speaker 1: be like a clean win or whatever. But but I'm
Speaker 1: very very excited for it. That's that's what we're gonna be.
Speaker 1: The match I'm most excited if for if you don't
Speaker 1: count MJF all right, the final match Darby Allen and
Speaker 1: Sting versus j Lethal and Jeff Jarrett. This is weird
Speaker 1: for me. The whole match is weird. I don't I
Speaker 1: personally don't feel Jeff Jarrett was a necessary addition to
Speaker 1: the story. I don't understand and why they will not
Speaker 1: put a microphone in front of j Lethal. Something has
Speaker 1: to be going on in order for him to be
Speaker 1: silent and only wrestle for this long and they're letting
Speaker 1: people who are inferior on the mic speak for him.
Speaker 1: It would be like havin a manager that can't talk
Speaker 1: talk for a wrestler who's money on the mic. Like
Speaker 1: I just I do not get it. I'm not a
Speaker 1: big fan of MM. I don't. I'm trying to think
Speaker 1: if I like any of the managers in a e W.
Speaker 1: I don't think I do. But I'm not a big
Speaker 1: fan of managers in general, unless you're just awful on
Speaker 1: the mic. Christian Cage is kind of a manager right now,
Speaker 1: so I'll give him. I'll give him that because he's
Speaker 1: money on the mic, but he's a wrestler at heart.
Speaker 1: That said, I don't have any interest in this match.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think it's necessary. It should just
Speaker 1: be Darby and j I don't know why I have
Speaker 1: to bring Sting and Jeff in it outside of the
Speaker 1: nostalgia thing. But Jeff Jared just to me, he's he's
Speaker 1: always been pretty good on the mic, and when he
Speaker 1: was in w w E they kind of clowned on him,
Speaker 1: so it was hard to give him the same kind
Speaker 1: of respect as he had in t n A as
Speaker 1: far as his knowledge of the business and his ability
Speaker 1: to promote and which he's gonna be helping them a
Speaker 1: lot with with HOW shows. I think they're gonna start
Speaker 1: doing how shows a w how shows, which would be cool.
Speaker 1: I think in that format he's gonna kill it and
Speaker 1: he could teach a lot. But I don't like seeing
Speaker 1: old guys wrestle because it's not them at their best anymore. Man,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to see like it's like
Speaker 1: when Joe Namath went to the Rams or when Michael
Speaker 1: Jordan's was with the Wizards, just you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Like it's worse than that. It's worse. It would be
Speaker 1: like watching Michael Jordan play now, like like, well, you're
Speaker 1: right right, that Rick Flair match, the last match that
Speaker 1: he did in Nashville that was the same weekend as
Speaker 1: Summers LAMB it was humiliating. I got invited. I didn't
Speaker 1: go with embarrassed but so embarrassed. Um, so yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't care about this match. I haven't cared about anything
Speaker 1: Jeff Jared's done since two thousand one, Like I've been
Speaker 1: waiting for him to get a WB hasbro. Uh. That's
Speaker 1: about it. That's all I really care about, you know,
Speaker 1: like he's he's cool, but he's do you remember back
Speaker 1: in the day when he was figured for it, everybody
Speaker 1: like men and women and like reporters and everybody like
Speaker 1: just for no reason. It's just just like guitar shot
Speaker 1: figure four, guitar shot figure for Oh you're interviewing me,
Speaker 1: you're just a nice lady from Entertainment Weekly. Jare shot.
Speaker 1: He was a nuisance. I liked. I liked him, you know,
Speaker 1: like in the Attitude era and stuff like that. But
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not. I'm not talking to anyone or
Speaker 1: text any of my buddies. Like we gotta watch the
Speaker 1: Jeff Jared's Sting match um, which is kind of where
Speaker 1: that Darby Allen has been thrown in this nostalgia thing,
Speaker 1: which I mean, like I was last week, I saying
Speaker 1: it's very cool, but also like him and Jay have
Speaker 1: already made some magic together. I just feel like you
Speaker 1: could give them a cool stipulation. Maybe you take the
Speaker 1: steel cage away from Jungle Boy and Lucha and you
Speaker 1: give it to them and just you know, just to
Speaker 1: put a tweak on their story. I felt like it
Speaker 1: could have been solos. I don't like that they threw
Speaker 1: the legends in there, but it is it is what
Speaker 1: it is. Man that said, tell the people where you're
Speaker 1: gonna be this weekend, Mr Dy. This Wednesday, I'll be
Speaker 1: in San Diego, um, performing at Red's Comedy Club. And
