- 1:21Speaker 2: I feel sad because there's going to be certain things
- 1:24Speaker 2: we're going to talk about on the show today that
- 1:26Speaker 2: I know Jason, that I know Jason would enjoy, but
- 1:31Speaker 2: that will be mainly in like on this day in
- 1:33Speaker 2: wrestling history. I don't know if you saw it in
- 1:34Speaker 2: the rundown. Let's just say the very first prize, the
- 1:38Speaker 2: very first thing that we're going to talk about in
- 1:40Speaker 2: that will be Uh. Jason would have enjoyed it immensely.
- 1:44Speaker 2: I think he's going through when he goes and listens
- 1:47Speaker 2: to the show. But yeah, you're you're going twenty seven
- 1:52Speaker 2: days as champion till till something happens until well, Full
- 1:57Speaker 2: Gear is our next predictions. We would have done predictions
- 2:01Speaker 2: for ww Crown Jewel, but due to some scheduling things,
- 2:06Speaker 2: and also I really wanted to talk about, you know
- 2:09Speaker 2: what you had uncovered, the the you know, the the
- 2:12Speaker 2: lineage of the title that you had put together. Really
- 2:15Speaker 2: that's right. I really wanted to get into that. And
- 2:18Speaker 2: just since we're already talking about Crown Jewel just finished up.
- 2:22Speaker 2: We're recording this on Saturday, so Saturday, so this it
- 2:27Speaker 2: just finished up a couple of hours ago, I think
- 2:29Speaker 2: actually an hour ago.
- 2:32Speaker 1: Right now.
- 2:33Speaker 2: Live Morgan and Cody Rhodes are your first male and
- 2:38Speaker 2: female Crown Jewel champions. Oh yes, they get a ring.
- 2:42Speaker 2: They do. They don't get the Belts have they have
- 2:47Speaker 2: they unveiled the ring or they just announced that they
- 2:49Speaker 2: were a ring.
- 2:51Speaker 3: I think in the post show thing they were gonna
- 2:53Speaker 3: do some kind of special presentation. I'm not entirely sure.
- 2:56Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, okay, all right, because.
- 2:59Speaker 3: The Big Belts a stand over in Saudi at the
- 3:02Speaker 3: WWE Experience attraction, which looks really cool.
- 3:05Speaker 2: But you know, yeah, I did not know that was
- 3:07Speaker 2: a thing until you. You just told me this a
- 3:09Speaker 2: few minutes before we before we open the mics up.
- 3:11Speaker 2: So could you explain a little more about like the
- 3:15Speaker 2: WWE Experience over there or just what you've seen.
- 3:19Speaker 3: I know they have like some kind of Undertaker themed maze.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Oh that's cool.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 3:25Speaker 3: I think they have like just kind of different exhibits
- 3:27Speaker 3: and whatnot. I don't know what all is in there.
- 3:29Speaker 3: I think there might even be a roller coaster.
- 3:31Speaker 2: I could be wrong with that, but I mean I
- 3:33Speaker 2: wouldn't be shocked.
- 3:34Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's just a big WWE themed attraction. Okay,
- 3:38Speaker 3: I guess a mini amusement park. It's just WWE.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Yeah, okay. Well, and they did the sort of a
- 3:45Speaker 2: pre show type deal Friday.
- 3:48Speaker 3: So I think that was actually from the WWE experience
- 3:50Speaker 3: like one of the things in there.
- 3:51Speaker 2: Okay, all right, it makes sense, makes sense, and that's
- 3:55Speaker 2: what Tripp h you did announce. They will not take
- 3:58Speaker 2: the championship belts home. They will stay there and they
- 4:02Speaker 2: will receive a ring, and pretty much they just want
- 4:04Speaker 2: to see over the years how many rings certain superstars
- 4:07Speaker 2: can rack up, which.
- 4:09Speaker 3: Kind of makes sense because they're not really defending the
- 4:11Speaker 3: title unless, by a chance, they happen to be the
- 4:13Speaker 3: champion again at this time.
- 4:15Speaker 2: True, that's true. I want yeah, I wonder how they're
- 4:18Speaker 2: going to do that, Like, I mean, well, I guess
- 4:19Speaker 2: it depends on if you're still holding the World Heavyweight
- 4:23Speaker 2: or ww undispeeded title, you know, respectively, up to this point.
- 4:27Speaker 2: So yeah, I guess I could see it at that point.
- 4:30Speaker 2: Interesting thing from that, from that sort of press conference
- 4:33Speaker 2: type thing that was happening, they started chanting for WrestleMania,
- 4:37Speaker 2: and Triple Ag shut that down real quick. He's like,
- 4:39Speaker 2: we know it will be in Las Vegas. I don't
- 4:42Speaker 2: think he wants to bring it to Saudi Arabia. I
- 4:44Speaker 2: think honestly, the only way they will they'll take it
- 4:48Speaker 2: to London. But it seems like that they're it's not
- 4:50Speaker 2: going to go to London now, Yeah, because it looks
- 4:53Speaker 2: like London maybe getting the Super Bowl?
- 4:55Speaker 1: Is it me?
- 4:56Speaker 3: Or did Triple as kind of seem not crazy enthusiastic.
- 4:59Speaker 3: Dre had a press conference.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Yeah he didn't.
- 5:02Speaker 3: He probably doesn't want to do a Saudi shows anymore.
- 5:04Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I don't think I don't he
- 5:07Speaker 2: He Triple H approaches WWE and in the wrestling business
- 5:12Speaker 2: much much differently than Vince did. I there are some similarities,
- 5:19Speaker 2: and I think that's just from being years of being
- 5:21Speaker 2: around Vince, being in the system, being his son in law.
- 5:24Speaker 2: I'm sure you're gonna pick up on certain things. But yeah,
- 5:27Speaker 2: I don't think he's too enthused about this. He's probably
- 5:32Speaker 2: just going through the motion.
- 5:33Speaker 3: And they stuck in a deal.
- 5:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that got deal was it's what ten years?
- 5:37Speaker 3: I think I think either one year like a half
- 5:41Speaker 3: year got added cause of COVID.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Okay, see that and that makes sense because that Yeah,
- 5:45Speaker 2: there was no traveling around that time, so and they
- 5:48Speaker 2: and pretty much Saudi Arabia is guaranteed two shows a year.
- 5:51Speaker 2: So this is just something that you know, Yeah, I
- 5:55Speaker 2: mean it is what it is.
- 5:57Speaker 3: Always got like a Spring is show which always changed
- 6:00Speaker 3: every year. Then they got Crown Jewel always at this time.
- 6:02Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 6:02Speaker 2: Yeah, so we'll see in spring what they have. But
- 6:07Speaker 2: as far as the show itself went, yeah, Cuddy Roads
- 6:10Speaker 2: did beat gunter Via roll Up to become the first
- 6:13Speaker 2: male Crown Jewel Champion. L A Night defeated and draw. Yeah,
- 6:16Speaker 2: and Carmelo Hayes. I should have paused there for a second,
- 6:19Speaker 2: so you get your dad out. As far as Randy
- 6:22Speaker 2: Orton and Kevin Owens goes, it was a no contest
- 6:24Speaker 2: because the match never got a chance to get started.
- 6:26Speaker 2: They just pretty much started brawling before the bell even rang,
- 6:29Speaker 2: and it never rang, so the match was never made official.
- 6:32Speaker 2: Like I said, Live Morgan did defeat Naya Jacks to
- 6:35Speaker 2: become the first women's Crown Jewel Champion. Seth Rollins did
- 6:39Speaker 2: defeat Bronson Reid, but after the match, Bronson Reid got
- 6:44Speaker 2: back up pretty much signal signaling that the Beast is
- 6:48Speaker 2: not done and the possibility of this feud continuing is
- 6:52Speaker 2: It's it's gonna continue. Yeah, uh, Biaca bell Aaron Jade
- 6:57Speaker 2: Cargill both they retained their women's tag team titles and
- 7:02Speaker 2: then the new Bloodline defeated the og Bloodline. Samy came
- 7:06Speaker 2: out to save Roman and company from a beatdown, only
- 7:09Speaker 2: to accidentally strike Roman further in tensions, so nobody knows
- 7:14Speaker 2: which side Sammy is truly on. Yeah, so you know,
- 7:18Speaker 2: we'll see. Actually, I think Sammy was a part of
- 7:20Speaker 2: the match. So yeah, anyway, there's there's tensions still going
- 7:24Speaker 2: on between Sammy and them and whatnot. Yeah, I don't know,
- 7:27Speaker 2: but that is everything as far.
- 7:28Speaker 3: I think he's part of the match. Maybe he came
- 7:30Speaker 3: out during the match, but he wasn't like in the match.
- 7:32Speaker 2: It wasn't in the match.
- 7:33Speaker 3: Okay, it was Roman in the USA is facing Solo,
- 7:37Speaker 3: Jacob Foto and Tomatonga.
- 7:39Speaker 2: Okay, okay, well yeah, or maybe maybe I think I'm
- 7:44Speaker 2: maybe I misread it. Let's see, I'm scrolling up. I'm
- 7:49Speaker 2: scrolling up. I'm scrolling up. Yeah, I've yeah, I did
- 7:53Speaker 2: not watch it. Full disclosure.
- 7:55Speaker 3: I just did it.
- 7:57Speaker 2: Well that not not just did it. I had other
- 8:00Speaker 2: work things to do, and Josh had had work things
- 8:03Speaker 2: to do. So so yeah, this is this is just
- 8:06Speaker 2: what happens. We have to brush up on it. I
- 8:09Speaker 2: was following following along loosely, but yeah, and just to
- 8:12Speaker 2: stick with WW, they did announce this week ww I D,
- 8:18Speaker 2: which is a D, which is from my understanding of it,
- 8:23Speaker 2: this is what I have wrote down. WW has announced
- 8:25Speaker 2: a new recruiting tool for them that is similar to
- 8:28Speaker 2: w w's n I L program. It is being called
- 8:32Speaker 2: ww I D I D meaning Independent Wrestling. It is
- 8:36Speaker 2: a way for local independent wrestlers to get in order
- 8:39Speaker 2: for them to get to WW faster. Apparently WW has
- 8:43Speaker 2: twenty wrestlers signed to w W I D as a
- 8:47Speaker 2: three just lost three.
- 8:49Speaker 3: We'll talk about that, OHRD.
- 8:51Speaker 2: We don't know. We don't know exactly who they are.
- 8:54Speaker 2: Me personally, I believe that this will be a more
- 8:57Speaker 2: efficient way for wrestlers to get signed by w w W.
- 9:00Speaker 2: I think it is a much better approach than the
- 9:03Speaker 2: old ways of finding someone who looks like a wrestler
- 9:06Speaker 2: and trying to make them into a professional wrestler. By
- 9:09Speaker 2: doing this, you're going you're getting real professional wrestlers and
- 9:12Speaker 2: not people who look the part.
- 9:13Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 9:15Speaker 2: My fear though, and I don't think I'm in the
- 9:19Speaker 2: minority with this, is that this will hurt the independent
- 9:23Speaker 2: scene like NXT UK did to the UK independent scene.
- 9:27Speaker 2: And my only hope for this is that they learned
- 9:29Speaker 2: from their mistakes with that.
- 9:32Speaker 1: Yeah, it.
- 9:34Speaker 3: Yes, And I also kind of look at it's like, well,
- 9:37Speaker 3: nxt UK was also under Vince technically true, and it's
- 9:41Speaker 3: a different time now with Triple H and he has
- 9:43Speaker 3: a bit more respect on some things.
- 9:46Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I mean, Like he he That's what
- 9:48Speaker 2: I mean. Like when we were talking about the Crown
- 9:50Speaker 2: Jewel stuff, he approaches it much different than Vince does.
- 9:53Speaker 2: So that's what I mean. Like, I'm hoping that they
- 9:55Speaker 2: learned from their mistakes because before nxt UK became a thing,
- 9:59Speaker 2: the UK independent thing was, I mean, it was thriving,
- 10:01Speaker 2: it was booming over there, and then nxt UK comes
- 10:05Speaker 2: in and they correct me if I'm wrong, and if
- 10:08Speaker 2: memory serves mean correct. They made it seem like that
- 10:11Speaker 2: they were going to work with promotions or something they
- 10:14Speaker 2: actually did at the beginning, Yeah, and then eventually it
- 10:17Speaker 2: just became you know, I.
- 10:19Speaker 3: Think one of the issues that kind of soured him
- 10:21Speaker 3: is I believe whoever the UK champion was at the time,
- 10:24Speaker 3: they went to another promotion and someone from that promotion
- 10:27Speaker 3: actually stomped on the UK title. Ah, so that might
- 10:31Speaker 3: have you know, soured some things there.
- 10:33Speaker 2: Yeah, but then again that was also under an old,
- 10:37Speaker 2: old regime. We had a whole new regime now. So yeah,
- 10:41Speaker 2: like I said, they got twenty wrestlers that they have
- 10:44Speaker 2: signed to it. We don't know who they are. They're
- 10:46Speaker 2: teasing them a little bit.
- 10:47Speaker 3: They did. They did mention like what promotions are already
- 10:51Speaker 3: like part of this deal or whatever. It's mostly the
- 10:55Speaker 3: first one they announced are basically those like current ww
- 10:58Speaker 3: wrestlers who run schools like Seth Rollins for example.
- 11:01Speaker 2: Okay, see that, and that one makes sense. And and
- 11:03Speaker 2: then I'm assuming like Booker T's school is involved in
- 11:07Speaker 2: that because there was a was it was it a
- 11:12Speaker 2: member it was a member of the of the Annawahi
- 11:15Speaker 2: family that he was trying to get I think zilla, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 11:20Speaker 2: he was trying to get him in with WWE. So
- 11:24Speaker 2: with this, it only makes sense why this has even
- 11:26Speaker 2: become a thing. And I don't know, like there's still
- 11:31Speaker 2: a lot of murky details on this. I don't know
- 11:35Speaker 2: if they are going I'm gonna go ahead and open
- 11:37Speaker 2: the link. I don't know if this is going to
- 11:39Speaker 2: be like a yearly thing, like you know, hey, we
- 11:41Speaker 2: got twenty wrestlers every year, or like this is just
- 11:43Speaker 2: or we're gonna start off with twenty and then expand
- 11:46Speaker 2: to thirty and forty. They're not really all that clear
- 11:50Speaker 2: about this. Yeah, this is actually I've pulled up this
- 11:53Speaker 2: straight from WWE's website, and this is what it says
- 11:56Speaker 2: about ID, and actually ID stands for independent development. My
- 12:00Speaker 2: apologies on that wwation. Yeah, WW is designed to provide
- 12:06Speaker 2: independent wrestlers a clear pathway to a potential career in
- 12:10Speaker 2: WW following the success of ww's NIL.
- 12:14Speaker 3: Program, and it's next in line, which is a program
- 12:19Speaker 3: that was angelay college athletes.
- 12:21Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't and has there been any to really
- 12:24Speaker 2: come out of that?
- 12:26Speaker 3: Maybe one or two, I don't the only ones I
- 12:32Speaker 3: can think it might actually still be at the Performance Center,
- 12:35Speaker 3: not n XT yet. I don't know if Oba Fhimi
- 12:38Speaker 3: was one of those. I don't know.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not sure. Off the top of my head,
- 12:42Speaker 2: was Gable steveson one of them.
- 12:46Speaker 3: I think he was.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Yeah, And well, yeah, anyway, w w i D has
- 12:52Speaker 2: been constructed to support independent wrestling prospects and schools with
- 12:56Speaker 2: world class training, development and mentorship, in turn raising the
- 13:01Speaker 2: profit of and strengthening the independent wrestling ecosystem. WWE will
- 13:06Speaker 2: provide the most prominent independent wrestling schools in the US
- 13:10Speaker 2: with the WWEID official designation, with the goal of guiding
- 13:15Speaker 2: new trainees and existing talent at these select institutions with
- 13:19Speaker 2: enhanced development opportunities. WWID lot will identify the top independent
- 13:26Speaker 2: wrestling prospects with an official WWEID Prospect designation and support
- 13:32Speaker 2: their developmental journey. WWID will give fans the opportunity to
- 13:37Speaker 2: follow the paths of the standout prospects on the independent
- 13:41Speaker 2: wrestling scene through curated behind the scenes content as well
- 13:46Speaker 2: as highlights and matches showcased across WWE's social platforms. So
- 13:54Speaker 2: that's coming straight from WWE's mouth. That is, that is
- 13:59Speaker 2: on their website under recruit uh and here I have
- 14:06Speaker 2: a list of the schools right here in front of me,
- 14:08Speaker 2: So we have a reality of wrestling, I believe.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Yep.
- 14:12Speaker 2: That's Booker T's Elite Pro Wrestling Training Center that is
- 14:18Speaker 2: led by coaches Mike Hollow and Scott Reid, The Nightmare Factory,
- 14:23Speaker 2: Cody Rhodes, a Knox Pro Entertainment and Academy, Rikishi Black
- 14:33Speaker 2: and Brave Wrestling Academy, that is SETH Rollins.
- 14:36Speaker 3: So those those are the first ones that are on
- 14:39Speaker 3: this deal.
- 14:39Speaker 2: Yeah, those are those are the first five h schools, Yeah,
- 14:44Speaker 2: that are on this w i D deal. I will
- 14:49Speaker 2: be very interested to see how far out they go
- 14:52Speaker 2: with this. Maybe they pick up the fire Wrestling, maybe
- 14:57Speaker 2: they come here to West Virginia nurseye. Yeah, I would.
- 15:01Speaker 2: I would be very interested to see which promotions in
- 15:04Speaker 2: this state they would pick, because, as to what we
- 15:07Speaker 2: point out on here, a lot. There is a lot
- 15:09Speaker 2: of independent wrestling promotions in this state.
- 15:11Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 15:12Speaker 2: Yeah, like there is a surprising number.
- 15:15Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot.
- 15:16Speaker 2: Yeah, go support independent wrestling, even if they don't have
- 15:20Speaker 2: the ww ID tag, Go support independent wrestling, yeah like
- 15:24Speaker 2: they Yeah, it's it's it's like when people say go
- 15:27Speaker 2: support your mom and pop shops, Go support your local
- 15:31Speaker 2: mom and pop wrestling promotions. So yeah, but that's everything
- 15:36Speaker 2: for ww i D Shifting Gears Real Quick NXT will
- 15:40Speaker 2: be at the twenty three hundred Arena this upcoming Wednesday.
- 15:44Speaker 2: Due to the US election this upcoming Tuesday, ww NXT
- 15:48Speaker 2: will instead be held on Wednesday, November sixth at the
- 15:52Speaker 2: twenty three hundred Arena, which is the historic ECW Arena
- 15:56Speaker 2: in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This positions NXT this week directly against
- 16:02Speaker 2: A E W. Dynamite, Yeah, which is the ongoing saga
- 16:07Speaker 2: between them.
- 16:09Speaker 3: Yeah, they recently went head to head, but it was
- 16:11Speaker 3: on that title Tuesday that Dynamite did. Yeah, but it
- 16:13Speaker 3: was only an hour because they started at nine instead
- 16:15Speaker 3: of right at eight and who who's dynamite? Okay, yeah,
- 16:21Speaker 3: I don't think there are any time changes for this.
- 16:24Speaker 3: I think they're gonna be directly for the two hours.
- 16:26Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I mean that's uh they did. They did
- 16:31Speaker 2: kind of tease this here recently. RD is going to
- 16:33Speaker 2: be there, rv D is going to be there, Bully Ray.
- 16:36Speaker 2: I think it's also going to be there.
- 16:38Speaker 3: Scene franc scene's going to be yeah, oh wow, at
- 16:41Speaker 3: least I saw a thing about her.
- 16:42Speaker 2: Oh well, you know what, it's going to be interesting.
- 16:45Speaker 2: You know they're going to outside of those or you know,
- 16:47Speaker 2: there's I think there's going to be more the pop up.
- 16:50Speaker 3: Maybe maybe, I don't know.
- 16:52Speaker 2: If I don't know if saying man, it's going to
- 16:54Speaker 2: show up, yeah, that would that would be rather They're
- 17:00Speaker 2: interesting if he did. But just sticking with AW real quick.
- 17:05Speaker 2: There are new aw Tag Team Champions. Yeah, after facing
- 17:10Speaker 2: the Young Bucks for the aw Tag Team titles this
- 17:13Speaker 2: past week on Fright Night Dynamite, which by the way,
- 17:15Speaker 2: looked really cool. I always like when does not not
- 17:20Speaker 2: just aw but just wrestling sets in general, like when
- 17:23Speaker 2: they have the Christmas stuff for the Halloween stuff or whatever. Anyway,
- 17:28Speaker 2: Private Party, Isaiah Cassidy and Mark Quinn are your new
- 17:31Speaker 2: aw Tagal Champions, Yes, making this their first championship wins

- 17:40Speaker 2: part of the inaugural signees of the company.
- 17:44Speaker 3: Yeah, back in business.
- 17:47Speaker 2: So that anybody out there saying the Young Bucks won't
- 17:49Speaker 2: do the job, Yeah, they did the job. They jobbed
- 17:53Speaker 2: out to him. But it's also it's it's apparently the
- 17:56Speaker 2: Young Bucks they're gonna go away for a little bit
- 17:59Speaker 2: and then I guess they're eventually going to make their
- 18:01Speaker 2: way back to help clean I don't know, because John
- 18:08Speaker 2: Moxley and them are running rough shot over at a
- 18:10Speaker 2: w right.

- 18:25Speaker 3: they just finally debuted him to this past Wednesday. Yeah, well.
- 18:30Speaker 2: Timing, you gotta get the timing.
- 18:31Speaker 3: Right they I guess they had thought of debuting him
- 18:35Speaker 3: at I think Wrestle Dream, but they had a couple
- 18:37Speaker 3: of other returns and anyone overshadow those.
- 18:40Speaker 1: True.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Sure, Yeah, So now the Hurt Syndicate is what they're
- 18:44Speaker 2: being called. Maybe the business formerly the Hurt Business are
- 18:47Speaker 2: in a e W. Yeah, so that's going on. There
- 18:51Speaker 2: is some talks, just because I'm a Kinney Omega fan
- 18:55Speaker 2: of bringing this up, there has been some rumblings that
- 18:58Speaker 2: mister Omega be making his way towards back, towards a
- 19:03Speaker 2: return to a w and there's even talks. This is rumors.
- 19:07Speaker 2: I don't have this on the sheet. This is just
- 19:09Speaker 2: I'm coming off top of my head right now that
- 19:14Speaker 2: that that Kenny is supposed to come back and they're
- 19:16Speaker 2: going to build to Omega Ocada five.
- 19:20Speaker 3: So we're well, we will we will see I guess
- 19:25Speaker 3: you know who's not coming back.
- 19:26Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, And we will end this segment before we
- 19:30Speaker 2: go to on this day in wrestling history, with some
- 19:32Speaker 2: rather sad news. It is it is what he what
- 19:39Speaker 2: he wrote was rather it was heartfelt. I'll say that
- 19:43Speaker 2: Marco Stunt announces his retirement from wrestling via Twitter or
- 19:47Speaker 2: ex whatever you want to call it. Uh. He put
- 19:49Speaker 2: in there to quote to my fans, friends in the
- 19:52Speaker 2: wrestling community today, I write this with a heavy yet
- 19:55Speaker 2: grateful heart as I announced my retirement from professional wrestling.
- 19:59Speaker 2: This is vision was not an easy one, as wrestling
- 20:02Speaker 2: has been the biggest part of my life for so long,
- 20:05Speaker 2: filled with moments that have shaped who I am today.
- 20:08Speaker 2: It has been an incredible journey, one full of passion, sweat, tears,
- 20:13Speaker 2: and unrivaled joy end quote. He goes on to thank
- 20:16Speaker 2: Bret Lauderdale and GCW for his start in wrestling, along
- 20:20Speaker 2: with the EW for the time he spent in both promotions.
- 20:22Speaker 2: He also think thanked all of the wrestlers he shared
- 20:25Speaker 2: a ring with and the fans for their continued support.
- 20:28Speaker 2: So Marco Stunt has officially retired from professional wrestling.
- 20:33Speaker 3: He's done, just like Baron Corbyn, Indy Hartwe and Tigan Knox.
- 20:36Speaker 2: Yes that was That's also another thing. They were released yesterday.
- 20:40Speaker 1: Uh.
- 20:41Speaker 3: Teague and and Indie were Corbyn's contract expired, Okay, they
- 20:45Speaker 3: didn't resign him, okay, referring to earlier.
- 20:49Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah yeah yeah again my mind. I don't
- 20:54Speaker 2: know which was weird enough about Indy Hartwell, because she
- 20:58Speaker 2: was on the taped episode.
- 20:59Speaker 3: Of spat Down and yeah, she was fired that day
- 21:03Speaker 3: and she ended up she was still on the taped episode.
- 21:05Speaker 2: Yeah. So and then I guess when it was announced
- 21:08Speaker 2: that she was being released, she was on Twitter and
- 21:11Speaker 2: she's like wait what so but then Seaun Ross's sap
- 21:15Speaker 2: on fight Ful was like, no, she knew, she knew
- 21:18Speaker 2: that she was being released, so I think maybe she
- 21:20Speaker 2: was trying to keep an air of fabe at that point. Yeah,
- 21:23Speaker 2: but we all knew that the episode was taped anyway,
- 21:25Speaker 2: or at least most of us knew.
- 21:27Speaker 3: So I don't know, I don't know.
- 21:30Speaker 2: But and last thing, Goldberg apparently is going to have
- 21:35Speaker 2: a retirement match in twenty twenty five apparently. Yeah, so
- 21:39Speaker 2: we'll see, we'll see, we'll see. I don't know. I
- 21:43Speaker 2: don't know what where this is coming from. It just
- 21:45Speaker 2: came across my time on today.
- 21:47Speaker 3: If they semi teased the little thing between him and
- 21:49Speaker 3: Gunther recently, so who knows.
- 21:52Speaker 2: Yeah, who knows. I'll be honest, I'm not I'm not
- 21:57Speaker 2: excited about that, but that's me. I don't know. I mean,
- 22:02Speaker 2: I'm sure there's people that you know that are would
- 22:04Speaker 2: be excited to see Goldberg one more time in the ring,
- 22:08Speaker 2: and I'm not really one of them. So I'll just
- 22:13Speaker 2: I'll just leave it at that. But we'll go ahead
- 22:16Speaker 2: and stop it right there. And now we have on
- 22:20Speaker 2: this day in wrestling history, November third, nineteen ninety eight,
- 22:38Speaker 2: and one of the greatest upsets in American political history,
- 22:41Speaker 2: Jesse the Body of Ventura was elected as governor of Minnesota. Yeah,
- 22:49Speaker 2: and I threw that inn simple because you have the
- 22:51Speaker 2: election is on Tuesday. Yeah, if you haven't voted, to
- 22:54Speaker 2: go vote. November third, two thousand and one, WWF Rebellion,
- 23:00Speaker 2: a UK only pay per view, took place at the
- 23:03Speaker 2: Inman Arena. Those men, I think it's pronounced men, but
- 23:09Speaker 2: it's it's it's all capitalized and men and Manchester, England.
- 23:15Speaker 2: In the main event, Steve Austin retained the WWF Championship
- 23:19Speaker 2: against the Rock.
- 23:20Speaker 3: Yeah. At that time they had UK exclusive paper. They
- 23:23Speaker 3: only aired on pay per view in the UK. They
- 23:25Speaker 3: didn't air anywhere else.
- 23:27Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think eventually they were like DVD releases
- 23:30Speaker 2: in the States and you could get them because they
- 23:33Speaker 2: had rebellion and they had insurrection.
- 23:35Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 23:35Speaker 2: So those were the two big UK The very.
- 23:39Speaker 3: First one is actually No Mercy, and then they later
- 23:41Speaker 3: that same year they made it a US pay per
- 23:43Speaker 3: view or worldwide I should say, maybe it was maybe
- 23:46Speaker 3: it was just a good.
- 23:46Speaker 2: Hit or events was like haw, I like that name.
- 23:51Speaker 2: I have a horrible Vincent impression. All right, Just to
- 23:55Speaker 2: wrap this up, November three, Sterial Crage two thousand eight,
- 24:00Speaker 2: in a still cage match on Raw, Chris Jericho defeated
- 24:03Speaker 2: Batista to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
- 24:08Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 24:09Speaker 2: Now, I don't know if this is the same match
- 24:11Speaker 2: where Batista got in trouble for blading. Oh yeah, apparently,
- 24:17Speaker 2: I don't know. I didn't. I don't think it is.
- 24:20Speaker 2: I don't think it is, But apparently there was a
- 24:22Speaker 2: match it Maybe it was in two thousand and nine.
- 24:23Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know. But yeah, anyway, that
- 24:26Speaker 2: is everything for on this day in wrestling history. We're

- 25:46Speaker 2: slash the Grill Out, go like the Facebook page. We do.
- 25:50Speaker 2: We've been we've been a little more active. Yeah, spy share, yes,
- 25:54Speaker 2: we have. But one thing that we do like to
- 25:58Speaker 2: talk about on this show is rankings on and we've
- 26:02Speaker 2: done it before. We did it last year we did
- 26:04Speaker 2: the PWI five hundred and the p WI Women's to fifty.
- 26:08Speaker 2: This year we were already done the PWI five hundred,
- 26:11Speaker 2: so now we'll do the Women's to fifty.
- 26:13Speaker 3: Yeah, So I still don't get those oranges? What Tony Storm?
- 26:20Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I don't know. I don't know either, don't Yeah,
- 26:23Speaker 2: I know exactly what's talking about. Buy ain't going there,
- 26:26Speaker 2: all right? So, uh, this past a couple weeks ago. Actually,
- 26:31Speaker 2: I think it was when we didn't have an episode out. Yeah,
- 26:34Speaker 2: that was when this came out. So I just we're
- 26:36Speaker 2: just revisiting it. The PWI Women's to fifty was released
- 26:40Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago. Now. The criteria for this
- 26:45Speaker 2: to rank the women wrestlers our in ring achievement, influence,
- 26:51Speaker 2: technical ability, competition, and activity. The rankings are based on
- 26:56Speaker 2: the performance of women wrestlers from October first, twenty twenty three,
- 26:59Speaker 2: to September thirty of twenty twenty four. Wrestlers must have
- 27:03Speaker 2: wrestled in at least ten singles matches to be eligible
- 27:07Speaker 2: for the rankings, and right here I have it like
- 27:10Speaker 2: a low number. Yeah, like because you, I mean, I
- 27:15Speaker 2: guess you.
- 27:15Speaker 3: Could like do try and make it so they include.
- 27:23Speaker 2: Like for the yeah, yeah, I mean I guess maybe yeah,
- 27:29Speaker 2: But I guess you could technically wrestle an average of
- 27:33Speaker 2: like zero point seven matches every month. That's just rough math,
- 27:37Speaker 2: like point seventy five matches a month. You're not gonna
- 27:40Speaker 2: wrestle three quarters of a match. But follow me on this.
- 27:42Speaker 2: You could wrestle ten matches a year and still not
- 27:44Speaker 2: make the two fifty because you didn't, you know, score
- 27:47Speaker 2: high enough in the other categories. But they are including
- 27:51Speaker 2: people who have only had ten matches. So I guess
- 27:54Speaker 2: maybe if you came back for a match or two,
- 27:56Speaker 2: you're not consisting you you may have a lot of influence,
- 28:00Speaker 2: you may have great ability, but you didn't meet that
- 28:05Speaker 2: criteria of ten matches. So we're not going to include
- 28:08Speaker 2: sucked making me cough man, I guess that's what they're
- 28:18Speaker 2: saying to them. But right here, I have the two
- 28:20Speaker 2: fifteen accounting what.
- 28:23Speaker 1: What is it?
- 28:24Speaker 3: I don't know why between one sixty says oh oh, her,
- 28:28Speaker 3: see what happened? Tearing from accounting?
- 28:32Speaker 2: What? I don't know who terring from accounting is but
- 28:36Speaker 2: we're about to find out. Okay, I'll go ahead and
- 28:39Speaker 2: give the top ten number one rightfully, so is Tony Storm.
- 28:43Speaker 2: Tony Storm has been on fire the past year with
- 28:46Speaker 2: the timeless gimmick. I mean it is so great, like
- 28:50Speaker 2: when she went to Mexico and they took the pictures
- 28:53Speaker 2: of her posted it I think of a CML and
- 28:57Speaker 2: they posted it on on their on their social and
- 29:00Speaker 2: everything else is in collar but Tony, Tony's still in
- 29:04Speaker 2: black and white. I love the gimmick. She's a phenomenal
- 29:08Speaker 2: wrestler anyway, has had a lot of influence in a
- 29:12Speaker 2: w and has pretty much carried that division the past year.
- 29:17Speaker 2: She had a wonderful match at all In against Mariah
- 29:20Speaker 2: May So I have zero problem with with Tony Storm
- 29:24Speaker 2: being number one. Behind her will be Jordan Grace at
- 29:28Speaker 2: number two. The she's still the current TNA knocking They.
- 29:32Speaker 3: Just lost it at their most recent events.
- 29:34Speaker 2: Okay, okay, that's I thought so, But yeah, Jordan Grace
- 29:39Speaker 2: from TNA, and then it goes Rea rip Late at
- 29:41Speaker 2: number three.
- 29:42Speaker 3: At first of all, I thought maybe put Ria Rupe,
- 29:44Speaker 3: like maybe a two, but now I think about it,
- 29:46Speaker 3: she actually hasn't had a whole lot of matches this year.
- 29:49Speaker 2: Yeah, she was out for injury. Yeah, but again I
- 29:51Speaker 2: was gonna say she has a fractured orbitable.
- 29:54Speaker 3: It's actually a legit injury. But they did a story
- 29:56Speaker 3: and wanted to write her off.
- 29:58Speaker 2: Okay they Well, am I using the correct term? They
- 30:02Speaker 2: pilmanized her?
- 30:03Speaker 3: Is that what it is? Sure? Yeah?
- 30:06Speaker 2: I think I think, I don't know. I think, yeah,
- 30:08Speaker 2: yeah they Yeah, they pilmanized her anyway. I don't know
- 30:11Speaker 2: Ria Ripley at number three. Number four is Micah from
- 30:14Speaker 2: uh Stardom yep, Josh Wrestler. Number five is Stephanie vak
- 30:19Speaker 2: Kerr NXT now yep. And then we have number six Surrey.
- 30:26Speaker 2: She was with n X t Oh. Yeah, yeah she's
- 30:29Speaker 2: not She's not with NXT anymore. I think she I
- 30:33Speaker 2: haven't pulled up right here.
- 30:34Speaker 3: Where is she at now?
- 30:36Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, she was last with NXT, but she's I
- 30:39Speaker 2: don't know exactly which promotion she's went to, but she
- 30:41Speaker 2: has left WW. Number seven is Bailey, number eight Willow Nightingale,
- 30:47Speaker 2: number nine Mariah May and then number ten Athena m
- 30:52Speaker 2: which Athena has quietly become uh the the Tony Storm
- 30:59Speaker 2: of Ring of Honor pretty much. And what I mean
- 31:01Speaker 2: by that is she is carrying that division over there, so.
- 31:04Speaker 3: I was looking up Surrey. According to her Wikipedia, she
- 31:07Speaker 3: is currently a freelancer who performs under well, yeah under
- 31:10Speaker 3: readam Sorry. So she's I guess, just wrestling wherever.
- 31:13Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, she's free agent pretty much. She hasn't signed
- 31:16Speaker 2: any promotion. She just probably just deal by deal with,
- 31:21Speaker 2: you know, whatever promotion is. Will in the y Booker.
- 31:24Speaker 3: She's recently done uh Suka Bond, Sukibon Stardom, Marygold, Yeah,
- 31:33Speaker 3: just different stuff. Okay. She just released from w OR.
- 31:36Speaker 3: I think she was released in twenty twenty.
- 31:38Speaker 2: Three, so okay, yeah, I knew she hadn't She hadn't
- 31:41Speaker 2: been with WW for a while. It had been a
- 31:44Speaker 2: minute since she was there. Number eleven is Roxane Perez,
- 31:50Speaker 2: number twelve, Live Morgan thirteen, Eo Sky number fourteen, Mayu
- 31:56Speaker 2: e Weretani, number fifteen, Masha slam of It number sixteen,
- 32:01Speaker 2: Mina Shirakawa seventeen, Becky Lynch number nineteen, Mayu Wanta what
- 32:08Speaker 2: Tanabe uh the number nineteen may Yu Yamashita and then
- 32:13Speaker 2: number twenty as Lyra Valkyria. So that is your top
- 32:17Speaker 2: twenty so far. Number twenty one is Julia, followed by
- 32:22Speaker 2: x in NXT, followed by Naya Jacks.
- 32:26Speaker 3: She has had a pretty good year.
- 32:28Speaker 2: Yeah she has. She's really improved. Yeah, like I know,
- 32:31Speaker 2: we've we've joked on the show about Naya Jacks, but
- 32:33Speaker 2: she really truly hasn't improved her in ring skills.
- 32:36Speaker 3: She did not injured Live Morgan.
- 32:38Speaker 2: That's true, she did not. That's a plus. That's a plus.
- 32:43Speaker 2: So Nia, Yeah, Nya Jacks, Danny, Luna, Kinsey Page. I
- 32:48Speaker 2: think I'm supposed to say, Rijo says probably no, no Ryo. Yeah,
- 32:57Speaker 2: I don't know. Julia Hart.
- 33:00Speaker 3: That's interesting she hasn't been armed.
- 33:02Speaker 2: Well yeah, uh sawyah, I don't. I can't pronounce that.
- 33:06Speaker 2: I'm sorry. A new Yeah, yeah, I know. Um Tam
- 33:11Speaker 2: Nakana uh Kalanie Jordan, Naomi, and then Hikarashida is thirty one.
- 33:18Speaker 3: Danny Jordan was the inaugural NXT Women's North American Champion.
- 33:21Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, let's see. I want to know who
- 33:25Speaker 2: Tiring from accounting is. Well, she's from accounting. Yeah, you know,
- 33:31Speaker 2: I'd rather would rather be from Accounting than than human resources.
- 33:35Speaker 2: So okay. She is most known for wrestling in real
- 33:39Speaker 2: Canadian wrestling.
- 33:41Speaker 3: It's real.
- 33:43Speaker 2: You want to know what the name of her of
- 33:45Speaker 2: her finishers, death and taxes.

- 33:51Speaker 2: That is good. That is good. U Okay, where's.
- 33:56Speaker 1: Right?
- 33:58Speaker 2: Right? Did we also did we overlook Terran from Accounting
- 34:02Speaker 2: last year because she was ranked one fifty three last year?
- 34:05Speaker 3: I guess so we must have. They were distracted by Tyris?
- 34:08Speaker 2: We were, by the way Jason sends in the group chat,
- 34:13Speaker 2: he finds Tyres on screen and uh, not gonna say
- 34:18Speaker 2: what he said, but uh, he was a I'll say
- 34:22Speaker 2: he was pleasantly support surprised to see Tyris on his screen.
- 34:26Speaker 2: Wherever he was, he's awful location. We don't know where
- 34:29Speaker 2: he's at. He doesn't tell us anything. But Terran from
- 34:31Speaker 2: Accounting is one sixty nine. I think he's hurt in
- 34:34Speaker 2: cheap Yeah he maybe, you know. It doesn't shock me.
- 34:39Speaker 2: Nothing shocks me with him anymore. All right, Let's see
- 34:46Speaker 2: Danny Moe, who is a local around here. Well, she
- 34:49Speaker 2: she wrestles for a lot of the local promotions, part
- 34:51Speaker 2: of the Yes with a facade, the Neon Ninja. She
- 34:57Speaker 2: wrestles frequently with par Wrestling Conquest, and I think with

- 35:29Speaker 2: no sense. See, we've also we have talked about these before,
- 35:36Speaker 2: like when we were talking about them last year. Is
- 35:38Speaker 2: sometimes the rankings are I don't know where their heads are.
- 35:42Speaker 2: I think what happens is like the top ten get
- 35:46Speaker 2: highly debated on who the top ten should be, maybe
- 35:50Speaker 2: even the top twenty or thirty. But then after that
- 35:53Speaker 2: it's just pretty much everybody's just kind of filling in
- 35:55Speaker 2: the blank. Lady Frost is one ninety.

- 39:45Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, actually was a while ago.
- 39:47Speaker 2: Was Yeah, you know what, things just run together after Wow,
- 39:52Speaker 2: they really do, can't. I'll say this can you believe
- 39:55Speaker 2: we got fifty nine episodes now?
- 39:56Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 39:58Speaker 2: Like wow, Lord, I know we're getting up there. In
- 40:01Speaker 2: episode sex is two, what's eight Sexy Star two?
- 40:07Speaker 3: Yeah, dose the dose not to newbe like christ Jericho.
- 40:13Speaker 2: No exactly. Okay. Uh, last year she was ranked to
- 40:18Speaker 2: twenty one. This year one eight moved up in rankings.
- 40:22Speaker 2: I no, cool, cool, cool cool cool and yes from
- 40:27Speaker 2: Baja California, Mexico.
- 40:30Speaker 3: Tessa Blanchard. She's still there where I'm just saying in general.
- 40:38Speaker 2: Okay, all right, all right, I got a lot of questions. Now,
- 40:42Speaker 2: where has she wrestled?
- 40:44Speaker 3: Uh, places like just random independent places.
- 40:49Speaker 2: I think, Okay, on this which is the pro Wrestling
- 40:54Speaker 2: dot fandom dot com, they don't have her anywhere.
- 40:57Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think she signed it. I don't think
- 40:58Speaker 3: anyone wants to sign her.
- 41:00Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean I kinda kind of get it
- 41:02Speaker 2: after what happened in Impact Wrestling and just she's.
- 41:08Speaker 3: Just not a great person.
- 41:09Speaker 2: Yeah. I was gonna say all the controversy that just
- 41:11Speaker 2: surrounds her in general, and she doesn't like Yeah, I don't. Yeah,
- 41:18Speaker 2: we can say that. I don't ever expect Tessa Blanchard
- 41:20Speaker 2: to be on this show, which after everything that's went on,
- 41:25Speaker 2: I don't know if I would want that on my show. Yeah,
- 41:28Speaker 2: pint her on my show, Yeah on our show. Let's
- 41:32Speaker 2: see Yes. Okay, So if the criteria is is that
- 41:38Speaker 2: you had have to have at least at least ten
- 41:44Speaker 2: matches between October one, twenty twenty three and September thirty,
- 41:49Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. Again, you can email us to grill
- 41:53Speaker 2: out a ninety five at gmail dot com or messages
- 41:56Speaker 2: from the Facebook page. Where has Tessa Blanchard wrestled?
- 42:00Speaker 3: I remember seeing a video semi recently, some random independent
- 42:04Speaker 3: promotion had got in front. We just had a kind
- 42:06Speaker 3: of a not so happy face.
- 42:10Speaker 2: I kind of get it, Like, right here you got
- 42:13Speaker 2: last legend from ww Okay, and where one sixty seven
- 42:19Speaker 2: is where she's ranked. Why is Tesla Blanchard ranked higher? Yeah?
- 42:23Speaker 2: And we and we had these same conversations last year
- 42:25Speaker 2: with the PWI five hundred about Tyrus why he was
- 42:29Speaker 2: ranked so much higher than other people. Now, granted, Tessa
- 42:32Speaker 2: is a good wrestler, but absolutely got great skills. Yeah,
- 42:37Speaker 2: I mean, look who her dad is. But again, look
- 42:40Speaker 2: at all this all the controversy that surrounds her. So
- 42:44Speaker 2: you know again, I don't know why she's one fifty five,
- 42:47Speaker 2: Diamante is one fifty four. I'm yeah and yeah, and
- 42:57Speaker 2: Tigan Knox being being ranked, being even ranked. I don't
- 43:00Speaker 2: know why Teagan Knocks and Tesla Blanchard are even ranked. Yeah,
- 43:04Speaker 2: like Lady Frost makes sense to me. You still see her.
- 43:07Speaker 2: Rachel Ellering makes sense to me. Aja Kong I guess
- 43:14Speaker 2: Oja Kong still wrestles. Let's see, I guess she does.
- 43:22Speaker 2: So she's ranked to fourteen. Uh Ramkucho to twenty four.
- 43:28Speaker 2: I already said that. I yeah, Katie Arquette two thirty two,
- 43:36Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't know. Some of these don't make sense. Yeah,
- 43:40Speaker 2: I do not have a clue about some of these.
- 43:45Speaker 2: Let's see, we'll go an A Jay ninety three, Loovice
- 43:50Speaker 2: ninety five. She has that excursion she did to Japan. Yeah, great,
- 43:57Speaker 2: especially her her foot movement greatly prove that. So again
- 44:02Speaker 2: they always say that if you want to learn how
- 44:03Speaker 2: to work, go to Japan, and that's right there. Anta
- 44:06Speaker 2: j just proved that sentiment all over again. Last one session,
- 44:13Speaker 2: Moth Martina, Irish female wrestler Okay does a code breaker
- 44:22Speaker 2: and a satellite DDT. Wow. I'm not going to say
- 44:26Speaker 2: what her other finisher is. Yeah, I'm not going to
- 44:30Speaker 2: say that. Ali Catches eighty two, Marina Shaffir eighty one,
- 44:35Speaker 2: Maxim Paler, maki Ito sixty nine, Thunder Rosa sixty five,
- 44:44Speaker 2: Tommy Hayashishita sixty four, Azumi sixty three, Maxim Paler sixty
- 44:52Speaker 2: fifty nine. That that the Sky Blue fifty four, Red
- 44:57Speaker 2: Velvet fifty one.
- 44:59Speaker 3: I'm surprised she's hi.
- 45:00Speaker 2: I know. Jade Cargill is forty four, Bianca Bellairs thirty four,
- 45:07Speaker 2: Billy Stark's thirty three, Tiffany Stratton thirty two, Chris Statlander thirty.
- 45:12Speaker 3: Six, Billy Starks is only twenty.
- 45:16Speaker 2: Yeah, but she, I mean she does good work. Does
- 45:20Speaker 2: good work. Okay, So if you want to go, go
- 45:23Speaker 2: pick up the Pro Wrestling Illustrated wherever you can find
- 45:27Speaker 2: your magazines or ordered offline.
- 45:29Speaker 3: A sponsor.

- 45:32Speaker 2: critique it a little bit. Most of these I would
- 45:35Speaker 2: say that I probably would agree with the Tesla blancherd
- 45:38Speaker 2: one doesn't make zero sense to me. Antiga knots knocks
- 45:42Speaker 2: sorry that she just got released, but again, I don't
- 45:45Speaker 2: know if the criteria is that you have to have

- 54:59Speaker 2: meme of the guy in the yellow suit walking around
