• 0:50
  Speaker 3: Russell Dream from Saint Louis and we're going to talk
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: about some of Russell Dream, not all of it, because
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: we've got a lot to talk about, but we are
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: going to start by talking about the main event from
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: Russell Dream. Guys, what did you think of this thing?
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: Look at Sting? He looks like the coolest old man
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: who ever lived.
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: I love Sting and this is drawing for me to see. Honestly,
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: I've it's it's hard to take in him being different looking,
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: but it's what he's going with.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Old man. Sting looked great. Like I want to say
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: it was Brian Alvarez on the Wrestling Observer Alive or
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: radio where he's like, Sting looked like that old dude
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: that everyone in town was like, oh you don't mess
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: with that guy.
• 1:41
  Speaker 6: He'll mess you up. Like you just you don't touch
• 1:43
  Speaker 6: that dude.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: But I want to see Sting under the White Beast
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Mortos mask at some point down the line, the next,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: the next, you know, the new awesome white Mortos like
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: he pulls it off and his white haired Sting.
• 1:59
  Speaker 6: So short, was so good see him?
• 2:03
  Speaker 7: Yeah, Anto was trying out of Halloween costume.
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but what did.
• 2:11
  Speaker 7: I'm not saying that is past. I'm just saying to
• 2:14
  Speaker 7: the white it was starring. You've never seen him like that.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: But well, let's let's talk about Let's talk about the
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: match instead of what Sting looked like. Uh. Look, look,
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: did the match live up to your expectations as a whole?
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: No, my expectations are really really high as a sicko.
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: From what I saw they there was some crazy stuff
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: that the the aquarium spot notably was bonkers, but I
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: was expecting you know, like where's the violence, where's the
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: blood spray?
• 2:56
  Speaker 7: Yeah, they were definitely hampered by the Monster Athletic Commission
• 3:01
  Speaker 7: not allowing the mean no blood, no fighting in the crowd.
• 3:06
  Speaker 7: That really hurts a match. It was still a good match,
• 3:11
  Speaker 7: but and I know you don't need blood, but there's
• 3:15
  Speaker 7: something about a match like that you need to see it.
• 3:19
  Speaker 7: You need to see like that visual representation of through
• 3:26
  Speaker 7: you know, like, Okay, these guys would be crap out
• 3:30
  Speaker 7: of stuff, I would go ahead.
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: I just I was hoping more. I really was.
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: I wanted.
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: A lot, a lot more because the way they built
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: it up that Darby doesn't give up, Mop doesn't give up,
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: and then he ends up giving up in a sharpshooter.
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: Sorry spoiler alert.
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: I don't know, but anyway, but that's just maybe it
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: was because of this commission, maybe, but it felt like
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: a regular Death Riders match for this whole bunch of
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: interface and all that stuff, it just felt flat to me.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: I may have a contrarian opinion.
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: I actually think.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Everybody's opinion there is really valid. I think those are
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: good perspectives. I am not a huge fan of like
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: the deathmatch style, and I felt lately AW has been
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: doing too much of that to the point where it
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: doesn't have the impact, like I'll enjoy it, like when
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Swerve and Hanger were doing their stuff, but I need
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: a couple months between those, and I felt like they've
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: been doing them too much, and so I assumed this
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: was going to be another one of those, and I
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: was kind of cringey, being like, man, you know, I
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: don't know if I can deal with another one again.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: I did not know about the Missouri Athletic Commission stuff
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: until afterwards. And for me, I actually enjoyed this more
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: than I think I would have with all the blood
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: and stuff, just because it had been a little bit
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: much for me in particular. I know other people feel differently,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: and it's valid. There's no wrong answer here. My main problem, actually,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: my only real problem with the match is the finish.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: It was clear when Sting gave Darby the bat the
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: significance of Derby hitting Mox's leg and his knee specifically
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: was going to play into the finish. He was supposed to,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: like just destroy Mox's knee with the bat, put him
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: in the sharpshooter. Him saying I quit there would have
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: made sense. They didn't focus on that enough, And like
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: others said, I was kind of confused how the ending
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: came up so quick, Like Mox is a killer, he
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: shouldn't have tapped out or said I quit so much.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: But watching him back, I realized they completely messed up
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: that and the announcers just did not focus on it enough.
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: When he tapped out.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: They needed a good ten seconds to twenty seconds of
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Mox just an excruciating pain before he said I quit,
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: go ahead.
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: I think Jesternett was going to chime in there.
• 5:50
  Speaker 7: I was.
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: I can't really verify his source, unfortunately, but I heard
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: like everything was running along, so they really like had
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: no choice but to cut things than they wanted.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: That makes sense, Yeah, that was kind of obvious, you know,
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: not did you have anything that you wanted to add
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: or storm?
• 6:11
  Speaker 8: For me, I would agree that it's getting to be
• 6:15
  Speaker 8: a little much with all of the blood and the
• 6:21
  Speaker 8: the kind of it's almost gruesome to me in a way.
• 6:24
  Speaker 8: I don't mind a good death match, but it's it's
• 6:27
  Speaker 8: getting to be a lot with them. And one thing
• 6:32
  Speaker 8: I would have really liked to see more out of
• 6:35
  Speaker 8: this match is more Darby and Mox one on one.
• 6:39
  Speaker 8: I am absolutely sick and tired of Wheeler Yudah and
• 6:45
  Speaker 8: Claudio and and and what's his name Daniels runs out there,
• 6:52
  Speaker 8: and I'm really tired of Marina Shafir. It would be
• 6:55
  Speaker 8: nice to see Mox do his thing all by himself.
• 7:00
  Speaker 8: So he doesn't need the help, and I'm really really
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: tired of seeing the help. It's overused and they can
• 7:09
  Speaker 8: do better than that. But I like seeing old man
• 7:13
  Speaker 8: sing always, always a joy.
• 7:16
  Speaker 7: M hm.
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: I feel the same way about the death writers. I
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: really think that it's been a year. It's time. Hopefully
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: I try to end this soon because it's the same
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: type of match every time in involvement, and to me,
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: it make if if that's a character that he's going
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: for the MAXX is going for where he has to
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: have help with me and he's not this big old
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: bad guy that he says he is, and that's great, but.
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: If not, I think it hurts mocks.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: I agree, Storm. Do you have anything you wanted to add?
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I actually I'm I guess I would say I'm
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: like a real sicko because I love the violence. I
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: think it's fantastic. It gives me old school you c
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: W vibes.
• 7:58
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I enjoy it, I really do. But I did feel
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: a little let down with the match, especially with Moxley
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: giving up so quickly. That kind of bummed me. But
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: ultimately I thought it was a pretty good match, and
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: I'm curious though as to what I think it was
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Net and Barry. How do you guys feel about uh,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: oh god, what is coming up? Why am I blanking the.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: Chocular bloody guts?
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: How do you feel about little guts because that's gonna
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: get gross?
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: Well, well, I don't We've got a lot to talk
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: about it. I don't want to go too far off
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: with blood and guts because we do have blood and
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: guts coming up November twelfth, and we'll talk. We'll assess
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: your question storm later on. In my opinion, this match,
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: like Barry, when you do something too many times, like
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: a tornado match or a Texas death match style match,
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: it does lose some of the charm. I guess if
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: he would call, you know, bleeding profusely charming. But this
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: match still had. Look, the fish tank thing was something
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: that we've not seen before, right. The fingernail thing drove
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: me insane. Now I was Some of you probably know
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: this already, but I was born death and I had
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: an operation when I was about five six years old
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: to correct that issue. But part of it was I
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: became susceptible to infections after the operation, and I had
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: to take all kinds of weird medicines for that, and
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: one of the medicines caused all of my fingernails and
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: all of my toenails to fall out, And let me
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: tell you that is hella painful. And when I saw
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: when I saw that fingernail spot with the skewer, I mean,
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: I was almost in tears. It made me so uncomfortable,
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: you know, you know what I mean.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: But look, hey, can I talk to Storm for a second, Like,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: I'm with you Storm, like I enjoy a good death match,
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: So like Kelson's saying, like I was squirming like when
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: he was two in the things under the fingernails, like Helson,
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: like I was squirming. I had no idea the Missouri
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Athletic Commission did not allow blood, Like I didn't know
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: that was a thing, right, I just was not.
• 10:47
  Speaker 6: So I kept waiting for the blood.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: I thought he was going to stab him like mox
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: In with the skewers before, and it was sticking in
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: his back and stuff. And I kept waiting for the
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: blood the whole time, thinking I was nobody bleeding, And
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: coming back.
• 10:59
  Speaker 6: To Helston's point, maybe it's just me, but I thought.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: They did some really really creative stuff, like you said,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: I'd never seen before. I'd never seen the fish tank
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Darby getting thrown. How many feet is that It's got
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: to be ten fifteen feet?
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: That is definitely a lot.
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Like, yeah, I thought they did some.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: And then the skewerst thing, I thought they did some
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: really creative stuff I'd never seen before that maybe cringe
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: in a different way without grossing, like without going to
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: the well.
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: On the blood, I.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Guess I'm actually I'm with Kelson a little bit. On
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: the nails. The nails are the one thing that got me.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: And I feel like it's because I watched way too
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: many like horror and like psychological movies that just kind
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: of mess you up. And I've seen like a lot
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: of movies like certain scenes where they that always happens
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: and it scares me and grosses me out and makes
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: me cringe. That was like the one part I could
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: not handle of it.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Same.
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: I cringed so hard.
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: Yeah here and no blood, like they didn't even need
• 12:03
  Speaker 6: blood to do it.
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: Well there, Yeah, it was very cerebral, it was psychological. Uh.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: The fish tank thing did not have an effect on
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: me whatsoever. I thought that was kind of funny, to
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: be honest with you. Uh, But but the fingernail thing
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: was like we need to have a fingernail match now.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: I mean seriously, the fish thing that he didn't like
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: blow out water like we always see on TV in
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: the movies, and that makes it seem so much more dramatic.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: And his head was just in there, like you can
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: see him holding his breath, and I'm just like water man.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I do want to address something. Well, actually it's
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: something that MK wanted to talk about. MK. Are are
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: you here? Uh you want to talk Just let's have
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: like a maybe a five minute discussion about what you
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: wanted to talk about. Go ahead, MK.
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: Well, I don't know. I think Sarah Stock is more
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: of a trainer producer. I don't know what she's called.
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: But she came out and said that people people, they
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: shouldn't be doing that in front of kids and her
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: best Helen Lovejoy impression, and then a man of Huber
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: came out and said, you know it's called parenting. Uh,
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: your kids shouldn't be watching a well known two well
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: known people who are well known for taking things to extreme.
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: And I quit match. But I thought that was the
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: most tame thing to get kicked off over. If you're
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: gonna say something, say something about the multiple things. Yeah,
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: multiple death matches things instead of your head kitchchain.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, look look at kay. I've been watching I've been
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: watching professional wrestling for many, many, many years, and I've
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: seen multiple times where people have been thrown over the ropes,
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: off the cage, off of the cage, hit the head
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: with baseball bats, breast knuckles, hairs, you know.
• 13:56
  Speaker 7: Tags W exclusive.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: This is not a W exclusion. This is not a
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: W exclusive stuff. There's a reason why it says TVPG
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: or TV fourteen in the top left hand corner of
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: your screen, amda Uber is exactly right. Parental guidance means
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: parental guidance. If a fish tank is what you're upset about,
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: then what in the hell are you doing in professional wrestling?
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: You know? This goes into a new feature that we
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: come up with for the aw Pantel Magnician podcast, and
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: it's called Shut the Hell Up Sarah stuff.
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: Talk about the hell up? Yet everybody.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: M dumb ass thing to talk about? Yeah, I got
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: to make a graphic for shut the Hell Up. You know,
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: but our inaugural shut the Hell Up recipient is Sarah stock.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: You could you can accept you expect the toilet paper
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: with a brown Smudge with the words shut the hell up,
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: I You're in box soon. Look, we got we gotta
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: move on because we've got a lot more to talk about.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: And probably one of the biggest things that came out
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: of the Tailgate brawl was the announcement aw women's tag
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: team bracket reveal coming on Dynamite. Uh they didn't say
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: how many teams there are, did they? So it's pretty
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: much so it's pretty much all you know, speculation. Look,
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: it's obvious. Some of the teams are the graphic itself
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: right there. You see Tony Storm, Mena Shearkal that became obvious,
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: That became obvious, ta Ja, Julia Hart and sky Blue.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: I mean there are some obvious teams. Do you think
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: that one of those that I've mentioned and are the
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: ones that are going to win this tournament? And who
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: who else? Maybe do you think who else do you
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: think may have a shot at becoming a tag team
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: in this tournament? And let's just say that we're gonna
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: have sixteen teams, because god knows it could be six
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: you never know.
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: Tony and Mina, Tony and Mina, I hope, so just
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: because like throw Mina a bone, let her win something big.
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: Exactly.
• 16:44
  Speaker 8: So, yeah, I think Megan Bain and Penelope Ford are
• 16:50
  Speaker 8: going to oh yeah, obviously there yeah, and I can
• 16:54
  Speaker 8: see them winning, honestly, are there are other there are
• 16:57
  Speaker 8: other tag teams that I like, but I can see
• 17:00
  Speaker 8: those two actually winning the titles.
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: Willow and Harley, right, they established them as a tag
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: team though, right.
• 17:08
  Speaker 7: I would say, like the five Yellow said so far
• 17:17
  Speaker 7: are the obvious teams to be in. I'm hoping it's sixteen.
• 17:21
  Speaker 7: I'm hoping they bring in a couple of teams from CMLL,
• 17:26
  Speaker 7: maybe some from stardom.
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: Indies, pro indies, like.
• 17:32
  Speaker 7: And I'm fully expecting one of those five teams to
• 17:38
  Speaker 7: win the tournament. But bring in other teams, don't usually
• 17:45
  Speaker 7: the showcase for women's wrestling and your partners and the indies,
• 17:50
  Speaker 7: you know, like yeah, yeah, most of the most of
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: them will probably lose in the first round, you know,
• 17:59
  Speaker 7: to a w specific teams you have a few move
• 18:04
  Speaker 7: on to the second round. You know, I'll be your
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: finals are gonna be to a WS.
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, but Chris, you know, look, I
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: don't like the idea of teams coming in from CML
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: or STARTUM and losing the first round to an a
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: W team. Kaguma and and Hazuki are probably one of
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: the highly probable teams. If they're gonna have a team
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: from stardom, that's who it's gonna be. And frankly, they're
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: better than TJ and Heart Blue. You know, come come on.
• 18:45
  Speaker 7: Well the one that moves on to the second round.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: If you're if you're gonna have a team like that
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: or even uh, I don't know, Persephone and Olympia from CMLL,
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: those are finals. Those are not first or second round.
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry they're not.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: They don't even need to be finals, but at least
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: semi finals or quarter finals, like like one of the
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: last three or four matches.
• 19:13
  Speaker 6: For sure.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: With you if you're bringing in if you're bringing in
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: people from another promotion, either they're gonna have to wrestle each.
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: Other, so one of them goes over.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: But I agree with Kelson, especially if it's the major
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: partner promotions like their New Japan or CML out well
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: New Japan would be start them at CMML.
• 19:31
  Speaker 6: Or Tokyo Joshipro.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: If we're making in roads, you got to get them
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: over in the first round. So either they're going against
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: each other for some of the advances, or you're gonna
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: have a week AW team like maybe the Renegade Twins
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: or somebody who's like AW adjacent. Put them over. But
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: I agree with you, Kelson. If you're bringing in gusts,
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: you gotta you gotta push them.
• 19:49
  Speaker 6: A little bit.
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: Plot twist. Mercedes Mode enters the tournament by her self.
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: The wins.
• 19:57
  Speaker 7: We'll people people would she didn't be fourteen belts or belt.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: No, she'd ever puppets tagging the puppet yeah, because I.
• 20:07
  Speaker 7: Mean it's one title, but two belts right now.
• 20:14
  Speaker 6: Hater Nona, are they a team they may bee or is.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: That just for setting up blood and goats? Yeah, okay, yeah,
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: I want to say something about the women's tag teams.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: I'm very upset about Anna j and ty Mellow or
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: t Mellow because they went with with AJ and Anna
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Ta was like right there the whole time, and I'm
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: just I'm really upset they didn't go with Anna and
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: I need to get that off my chest.
• 20:50
  Speaker 6: Thank you.
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: I'm going to say something here. I think I think
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: it was buried brought up Willow and Harley.
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: I don't like that team. I really don't. And I'm gonna.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna tell you why, because Mercedes and Harley makes
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: much more sense to me.
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: Oh, you're so right, dude, You're so right.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: And having Harley as Mercedes's partner makes it to the
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: point where Mercedes can lose a match and Kay, you're
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: gonna have to mute. So yeah, I mean, I I do.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: I just I just like that team better.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: My view Kelson on that is after Mercedes loses at all,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: and I think that's the storyline we're gonna see, and
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: she hits rock bottom that it needs to be Harley
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: who finds her at her lows of lows, helps pick
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: her back up, and they tear through the tag team
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: division all the way back to the titles and it's Harley.
• 21:59
  Speaker 6: Who makes her a champion again.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: Well, don't go long term.
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: That's my long term book, and I and.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: I agree with you. Look, this is my thoughts. This
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: is you're going. You're going with my thought train. Harley
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: and Mercedes lose in the tag team tournament as partners,
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: and Mercedes gets bent out of shape about it. But
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: but hurt if you will, a lot of ass hattery
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: is going to happen. But let's not forget that Harley
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: is popular and aw has an event coming up in
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: Australia in December, and that's where I believe, for shits
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: and giggles, Harley Cameron will become your new AWTBS champion.
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: YO book.
• 22:56
  Speaker 7: I love it, love everything about it.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: It's been fun watching her to like it's rare you
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: get to see somebody brand new figure it out in
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: front of you on TV.
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: And kudos to Tony for just keeping her.
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: On TV and letting her figure it out because she's
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: got more talent in her finger than most of us
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: do combined together and anything. It's crazy and it's just
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: been a lot of fun watching her develop on TV.
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: Man, I agree, the last time I saw somebody developed
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: like that on real time was actually Braun Stroman. It
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: was crazy watching him go from like the Wyots when
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: he wasn't very good to just like improving week after
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: week after week.
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: Yeah, there's there's not a whole lot like we like.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: Bron Breaker is one going on right now where you
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: basically saw him as soon as he broke into the
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: business in the XT like there was no end ser
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: hit and you've just seen him just figure it out
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: week to week and look at him a huge star now.
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: But it's it's neat. It's neat to see that.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: One other little thing that I wanted to put out
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: there to you guys was, yeah, we have several established
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: tag teams, one being Okay, you're gonna have to mute,
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: one being sky Blue and Julia Hart. But that leaves
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: Tecla with no partner who's techless partner. If you're gonna
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: you've gotta have Techla in this because she's so dynamic
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: and such a popular heel.
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: If you will, Tela's partner is Tea. She can.
• 24:32
  Speaker 6: I don't think you do.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: What was that, Barry, I'm sorry, I don't.
• 24:37
  Speaker 6: I don't think you do need her.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: I would keep her feuding with the the title, with
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: them in that three way.
• 24:43
  Speaker 6: I don't think you need her in the Tech.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: Champions, all right, agreed?
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: I think in their death triangle what what is it
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: called again?
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: The triangle?
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: Tels sisters has said.
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: Brunette, Yeah, yeah.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: You got you got the singles competitor and the tag team.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: I think that's fine. She's the singles competitor of the group.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: Okay, well, look, I for the sake of time, and
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: I apologize that everybody didn't get a chance, But I
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: do want to move on because we also had a match,
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: the tag team match at Russell Dream, which in my
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: opinion for me, was the match of the night. I
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: love this match. It was fun. But it looks like
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: and we've been talking about this for weeks and weeks
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: and weeks and weeks now, Uh, Kenoski Takeshta going babyface.
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: Uh do you think we're at that point now?
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: Yes?
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: I think so.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: Okay, great discussion, guys talk.
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: It feels like we all know it's coming, Like it
• 26:07
  Speaker 7: just seems so obvious for it not to happen. But
• 26:11
  Speaker 7: I'm excited to see how it happened. You know, obviously
• 26:15
  Speaker 7: it's gonna be the issues between him and Okada. I mean,
• 26:21
  Speaker 7: that's that's pretty clear right now. But how does it happen?
• 26:26
  Speaker 7: Who winds up winning the deal? Does it shift over
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: or crossover with New Japan with him being the iw
• 26:33
  Speaker 7: GP champion, because yeah, I know Coada made the comments,
• 26:37
  Speaker 7: oh I'm done wrestling there, but you really think he's
• 26:40
  Speaker 7: gonna miss Tonahsky's last match. But he's gonna be there
• 26:44
  Speaker 7: for that, not in the match, but he's gonna be
• 26:47
  Speaker 7: there to see Tanahsky retirement.
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: That's a pretty good point. Actually, I haven't really thought of.
• 26:58
  Speaker 6: That attack him.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: I had Akata attack him after his retirement match, and
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: I'd have Takashita make a safe sets up the match
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: a rustle Kingdom.
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: Well you know, look it's retirement rus Kingdom.
• 27:18
  Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, yeah, I mean never mind, I didn't know.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: Never mind. Sorry, Yeah, So isn't he fighting Harley Race? No,
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: never mind.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: So, like, Takesha is an interesting cat because back before
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: he joined the Callous Family, like he was baby face
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: to Kashna, right, but he couldn't win, and then he
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: kind of hooked up with the elite as his hail
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: he'll turn and then boom full heel. And one of
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: the things that I've been kind of thinking about the
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Callous Family is really look at them as a as
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: an engine for making big time baby faces, because one
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: of the tried and true methods for making somebody as
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: a top baby face is to have them at a
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: heels table and then turn on the heels and it's
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: happened a whole bunch of times, and I think Takesha
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: is the first one to benefit from that. With the
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: Kallis family, I think Fletcher's the next one, probably a
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: year from now or so. But like, this is a
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: great case study in how you put a guy in
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: a faction, you keep them on TV, people like them.
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: You just let him win, just just make him be
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: a bad ass, just let him win, let him do
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: his thing. And like when people start getting behind him,
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: even though he's a heel, that's when you know it's time.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: And in this case, it was fun to see everybody
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: starts hearing for them, even as it's a heel, and
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: you can see Tony finally get comfortable. He's like, all right,
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: let's pull the trigger on what we've been hitting at
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: with Okaton Takeshaa. It's time. Let's do it this year.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: And I think it's great. I'm totally ready. He's one
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: of the young guys. There's like six four young guys
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: that they can invest in, whether here and in New Japan,
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: whether he wants to split his time. I don't know
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: what his run is going to be with this belt,
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: but this guy is great. He's the future like Fletcher.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: He's the future like Osprey and Swerve and Hangar and MJF.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: And I can't wait to see them. Just push him
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: to the moon. It's a big time babyface.
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: I agree. I totally agreed. I do hate to correct you,
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: especially on your birthday, Barry, But wasn't a will the
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: first person, the first heel he'l to turn face off.
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: The callis family, you know.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: I think that's a good point, Jess. The early kallis
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: family when he came in as an outsider.
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: I think you're right. Yeah, I would give you that point.
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: He was the first one, for sure.
• 29:42
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean there's split.
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: Was sort of amical bullet first but less so afterward.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: But it's still the same. I think you're right, though.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: That was the model. He came into a heel faction.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: They got hot, people wanted to cheer him, the biggest
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: way to establish somebody who's having turned on that heel faction.
• 29:57
  Speaker 6: Jess, that was a good observation. I didn't realize missed that,
• 30:00
  Speaker 6: But that's a good point.
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: Thank you.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: Well, let's move on because this is going to be
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: a fun topic. Before we start, I want to point
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: out that Sutton isn't with us here tonight, and I
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: just wanted to say something on his behalf. This is
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: not me speaking, this is on Sun's behalf. Mercedes Monette
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: was terrible in a in WWE, She's terrible in aw's
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: is the worst thing to ever happen in the women's
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: wrestler there, I said it, There you go something anyway,
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: Mercedes Monet twelve bolt, twelve belts Monette. I thought I
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: was going to cry when Mina Shei Kala came out
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: at Russell Dreen because my first thought was, oh no,
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: They're going to have Mina Shei Kala eat yet another pin.
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: And of course, Mercedes Monet defeated Mina Shei Kala to
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: win the Interim Ring of Honor TV Championship. Interestingly enough,
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: on the Ring of Honor official roster, when Mina Shirakawa
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: was the the Interim TV champion, she was on the
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: roster page, but in the actual roster and their list
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: of champions, Red Velvet was the champion and Mina Shirakawa
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: was not even up there in that champions graphic bracket.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: Mercedes Monette was instantly put in there as interim champion,
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: right next to Red Velvet as ROHTV champion. Frankly speaking,
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: and I'm just gonna speak this from the heart, I
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: do not consider the Ring of Honor Interim Championship TV
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: Championship as a belt for Mercedes Money to claim. I
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: don't consider the Owen Hart Championship as a belt for
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: for Mercedes Mornee to claim, because nobody else has claimed
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: it like she has. I also considered the Queen of Southside,
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: which is part of the repro undisputed British Women's Championship.
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: It's kind of like a combined belt. The Queen the
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: south Side is from a now defunct, a now defunct promotion,
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: and that belt cannot be defended on its own. So
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: frankly speaking, I think Mercedes Monet is nine belts Monette
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: right now, to be honest with you. But anyway, what
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: do you guys think about Mercedes Monet? And she's challenged
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: Christian Statlander already at Bulgear, and we know that when
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: eventually Red Velvet comes back, that Mercedes Monet is going
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: to get a shot at Red Velvet's belt.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: So I'm actually one hundred percent with you Kelson about
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: like the titles, especially the owen Heart one, because I mean,
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: that happened months ago, like it's a one time thing.
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: It's in and out, you're done. You don't get to
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: count that as a forever belt. I'm totally with.
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: You on that.
• 33:24
  Speaker 7: Yeah, she technically is carrying around twelve belts, but she
• 33:30
  Speaker 7: is nine and a half championships. I mean, I'll count
• 33:35
  Speaker 7: the interim as like, you're not really the champion until
• 33:40
  Speaker 7: you beat the champion, but we'll give we'll give you
• 33:43
  Speaker 7: a half of that one.
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: That's fair. Anybody else have any thoughts?
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: Do you think she puts over red velvet when she
• 33:53
  Speaker 6: comes back?
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: No, and it's not her choice to do.
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: So, Look what if what if that's during the So
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: I don't know when or about, but it's scheduled to
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: come back. But what if that's during the slide when
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: she starts the losing street that we all assume is
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: going to come at some point. Isn't that kind of
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: the point where she's acquiring this equity and then pays
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: that off and puts people over on the way down.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: Well, look, she's been putting people over through this whole thing.
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: I am not speaking poorly of Mercedes Monet as a
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: matter of fact. I mean, but if you look, if
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: you look at some of the statements. Look, her most
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: recent championship was Sunday night at Winnipeg Pro Wrestling and Winnipeg.
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: Winnipeg Pro Wrestling actually made a statement because somebody on
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: AX said something that a lot of people have said
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: and I do not which I do not believe, and
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: that Mercedes Monet is just there for herself and not
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: doing anything and whatnot, you know, to put over wrestlers. Well,
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: we're talking about Winnipeg Pro Wrestling two weeks ago. Did
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: any of you know what Winnipeg Pro Wrestling was? You know,
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: think about it? You know, I'm still I'm following Diana
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: Strong on X and been watching some of her matches.
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: That's who Mercedes Monet beat in Poland for the EWA
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: Championship and the Bestia champion Chip very mute, please, And
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: my point here is that Mercedes Monet is putting people over.
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: Winnipeg Pro Wrestling made a statement saying she's put us
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: on the map. She's it's a mutually beneficial partnership, I
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: guess is the best way to put it. I think
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: that's what they said, but I know they use the
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: words specifically mutually beneficial. Now, the question, but the question
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: I wanted to ask you guys, not only on that,
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: is do you think Mercedes Moona beats Chris Statlander at
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: full gear.
• 36:17
  Speaker 7: She should not know.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: M No, I don't think she is.
• 36:27
  Speaker 7: Sorry, go ahead, I think she loses it full gear,
• 36:30
  Speaker 7: gets frustrated and you know, maybe starts issuing open challenges
• 36:37
  Speaker 7: for the TVs title and you know, gets a few
• 36:40
  Speaker 7: wins until she hits Australia. Harley comes out, surprises her
• 36:48
  Speaker 7: with a roll up, and that is the start of
• 36:51
  Speaker 7: her downfall. The first title she won is the first
• 36:55
  Speaker 7: title she loses, and that starts the dominoes dropping, because
• 36:59
  Speaker 7: she's going to be more and more desperate to keep
• 37:02
  Speaker 7: the titles now that she's one less, now that she's
• 37:08
  Speaker 7: you know, like she's got the record right now. Okay,
• 37:12
  Speaker 7: she's got to keep them or else.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: Let me ask you guys something, because I got a
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: plead ignorance here. Did they announce that the Women's World
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: Tag Team Championship Finals would be at full Gear?
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: I don't think so.
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: I don't think somebody said something about it, and I'm like,
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: I didn't hear that.
• 37:32
  Speaker 7: But then again, they announced familiar, but I'm not sure.
• 37:36
  Speaker 7: It might have been one of those where one announcement
• 37:40
  Speaker 7: got kind of mixed in with the other, like maybe
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: they made Mercedes for stat land or official for full
• 37:49
  Speaker 7: gear and then did the women's tag title announcement.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know how many times has STAT lost
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: the Mercedes now as a two or three?
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: How many times has STAT lost to Mercedes too?
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: I believe too, because they made sure to bring that
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: up at the pay per view, right.
• 38:12
  Speaker 6: That is why I don't think.
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: I don't think Mercedes wins. And if you're trying to
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: establish status as a big time champ, She's now got
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: two wins over Tony Storm. A win over Mercedes is
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: the next strongest woman in the women's division from a
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: record standpoint, that firmly establishes her as a top tier champion.
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: Those are significant wins. So I don't see a world
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: where Mercedes drops. But I'm looking forward to when you
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: know she's got titles from these promotions, She's gonna put
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: somebody over and make She's gonna make a lot of stars.
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: She's bringing attention to these promotions, like you said, Kelson,
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: and when she goes back like these performers and these
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: smaller promotions are going to have a win over Mercedes
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Monette like that's a huge deal for somebody on the indies,
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: regardless of what country it's in like that's enormous and
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: it's going to be just it's going to be great
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: to see.
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: I absolutely agree.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: I have something on ringside News earlier saying that she
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: is not making any money from these trips, like she's
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: doing this all on her own time.
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: Let me let me break it, let me interrupt you storm.
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: Ringside News is full of ship, so don't read anything
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: from them, Okay, says is absolutely bullshit. Sorry.
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, I've read some things that I heard later
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: that we're all that were actually true, so I guess
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: they're half and half.
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, even I say something smart every once
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: in a while, but I admit to it.
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: You want to know something kind of funny. I heard, No,
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: this is in no way, shape or form the way
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: I think, the way I think it works, or that
• 40:04
  Speaker 4: it will work. But I heard somebody say, like what
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: if what if Stat wins and gets the whole kitten kaboodle,
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: And I'm just imagining Stat like carrying off all the titles.
• 40:18
  Speaker 7: She just wanted a wheelbarrow.
• 40:24
  Speaker 3: Okay. Anybody else have anything to say about Mercedes Monet?
• 40:38
  Speaker 9: No?
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: Okay, then I guess we will move on to really
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: our last topic, which surprised me a little bit. And
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: that was the heel turned done by Samoa Joe and
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: by by Samoa Joe turning heel as part of the opps,
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: he also turned uh Shabana and Will Hobbs heel. Uh.
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: I like Samoa Joe as a heel, I really don't
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: like Hobbs as a heel. And I can't really say
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: about Shabana's heel because I don't think I've ever seen
• 41:17
  Speaker 3: Jabana as a heel.
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna disagree with you, Nelson on Hobbes. I
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: think he's a great like because he's got that sneer,
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: that very like sealish expression.
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: You know the one, of course, I know the one.
• 41:31
  Speaker 3: But here's the thing. Hobbs sneers and then he smiles.
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: I've said this before, Jess, and I don't know if
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: you've been heard me say this on the podcast, but
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: in my opinion, if I have to say, just from
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: looking at the wrestlers, who's the nicest guy on the
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: aw roster? I am immediately drawn to Will Hobbs. I
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: really do believe that he is just this big, we
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: loving pussy cat of a guy. And having him having
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: him as a heel, even with that really cool snarl
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: that he has. It's just I just can't get past
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: that that She's just like he's got this halo over
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: his head that you can't see.
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: The nicest guy in the company is the guy who
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: has eye break backs as an entrance graphic.
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: Yes, the big black and jack guy.
• 42:28
  Speaker 7: He only breaks you back of bad people.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: You know, I kind of look at I'm with you, Kelson.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: I don't want to boo will Hops right now. I'm
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: intrigued to see Shabata as a heel because he's never
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: been a true heel in New Japan. He is kind
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: of like a mercenary, so to speak. But you know,
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: kind of like the APA was back in the day
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: in WW. Not really bad guys, but they'll do bad stuff.
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: But like Hobbs is, Hobbs is really getting over. Like
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: people like seeing Hobbs beat people up. They cheer him
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: when he beats like it's kind of like Smo Joe
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: is a baby face, very similar vibes. People just really
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: like to cheer and see SMO Joe beat people up
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: because it's fun. Same thing with Ojabs. I don't like
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: blowing him. He can be a heel. We've seen it,
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: but like, I want to cheer this dude. I want
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: to share this guy until he established himself as a
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: dude and then go somewhere with him at the heel.
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: Like I'm I'm okay, I'll watch it, but like I'm
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: kind of bummed.
• 43:26
  Speaker 6: I've really enjoyed sharing him as a face, and I
• 43:29
  Speaker 6: think that's the right move for a.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: Long term Barry. I don't know if you saw it,
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: but there were reports that came out during the week
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: last week that Samo Joe is basically said that once
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: his current his current contract with a W is up,
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: that he may be calling it a career. Yeah. I
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: kind of want to see Samoa Joe his last big
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: or at least one of his last big feuds against
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: Will Hobbs and Havejo put over Will Hobbs. You know,
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: let's let let that be Samo and Joe's legacy in
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: the start of Will Hobbs.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: I need that match.
• 44:13
  Speaker 6: That's me too.
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying that I don't think it's a I
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: don't think it's a match. I think it's you know, a.
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: Few Yeah, we've talked. I mentioned this before. There's an
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: importance with certain pins with certain individuals. Putting people over,
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: you make somebody. John Cena's last pin is going to
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: make somebody when when aj Styles retires, He's going to
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: make somebody When Sting in general traditionally they put somebody over.
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: I would argue Sting made Darby when when they won
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: the championship with the tag champs together, Like Sumojo retiring
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: and putting.
• 44:50
  Speaker 6: Over Will Hobbs is a huge deal.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: It's like when Okada puts over to Kesha, It's a
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: huge deal. There are some moments you're a huge deal,
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: and Mojo putting somebody over on the way out as
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: a is a star making huge deal and that's a
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: lot of capital that he'd be given.
• 45:07
  Speaker 6: I agree. I mean Kelson, I'd be a great person
• 45:09
  Speaker 6: for him to put over in a feud.
• 45:12
  Speaker 3: And the Q big guy slapping man meat, Hey give
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: me a meat match, brother. Everybody like meat is everybody
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: likes meat. Yeah, but I was really shocked when Samojo
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: did that the Hangman Adam page.
• 45:32
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 45:34
  Speaker 3: Look, it made the match relevant though, because if you
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: listen to our prediction show last week, nobody thought that
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: Somemojo was going to win this match. But because he
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: turned on Adam Page like he did. It made the
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: match memorable.
• 45:52
  Speaker 6: It's a program though, yeah, just it's not.
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: It's just not, you know, a battle of the belts
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: one and done kind of thing. One of the things
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: that I failed to mention was that at Russell Dream
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: in the very first segment we talked about Darby Allen
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: and Sting. We had a big thing about Sting. That
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: was October eighteenth. That was one year to the day
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: October eighteenth, twenty twenty four, when Sting announced that his
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: last match would be a Revolution. So it was a
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: first full circle kind of thing. I did want to
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: just throw that out there. Let's move on to our
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: pope re because I think Barry you had quite a
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: few things that you wanted to bring up. At least
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: you did, I don't remember. You don't remember any of them.
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: Go ahead, so all right.
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: So one of the things I want to bring up,
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: This's something we chatted about a bit on the discord,
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: and I'm sure it was on the Reddit too or
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: the subredd as well. This was the first time that
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: I think AW did a match that carried into the
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: pay per view. It felt very much like Saturday Morning
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: Superstars or whatever. It was called back in the day
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: where they would have the main event and like, oh,
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: we're out of time. We got to go, you know,
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: because you gotta go to the live event if you
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: want to see these big matches. When they started and
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: Tony Shiavani was like, oh, there's only five minutes left,
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: are they going to go? And like we're seeing them
• 47:28
  Speaker 2: rush all these spots and I'm thinking hook line and sinker.
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: Oh man, they got cut for time. They're gonna have
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: to rush through. It would have been a good match.
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: And then I realized there's no way they're going to
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: wrap this up and they fade to black. I flip
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: over to the pay per view and boom these they
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: start the pay per view mid match.
• 47:46
  Speaker 6: I was just like, this is great.
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: The Pyro going off was hysterical. That was really good.
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm like, hell, yeah, man, if you want
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: to get people to buy a pay per view, tease
• 47:56
  Speaker 2: them at the start of a good match. You want
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: to see the finish, you got to pop down your
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: forty any rate. I thought that was a really cool way.
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: I don't think they should do it every time, but
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: get a if you got one good pre show match
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: that you can hook them into the pay per view.
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: I liked that. I thought it was a fun little
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: continuity thing, and I'm interesting how other people felt.
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: I will answer you, Barry. Uh. Personally, I hated it.
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: I thought it was a rip off. We had somebody
• 48:24
  Speaker 3: in the live chat that was not able to watch
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: the pay per view and they got screwed out of
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: seeing a match that they did watch the beginning of
• 48:37
  Speaker 3: they didn't they never got to see the end of it.
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: So that's my opinion. I don't do let me put
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: it this way, I do not ever want to see
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: them do that again.
• 48:50
  Speaker 7: That's my opinion, complete opposite opinion. I don't want to
• 48:55
  Speaker 7: see them do it again for a while. You know,
• 48:58
  Speaker 7: you can't do that every pay per view because then
• 49:00
  Speaker 7: it just becomes a cluiche deal. But I'd love to
• 49:03
  Speaker 7: see that every you know, like every six months it happens,
• 49:10
  Speaker 7: not like yeah, yeah, once or twice would be perfect.
• 49:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 49:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: I'm one hundred percent with what Barry said. I'm team
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: Barry on this one.
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: There's no wrong answer here. Kelson's perfective is totally valid.
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: I think people who are exactly tuned in wanting to
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: watch a match advertised for collision and field drift are
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: totally valid as well. It was fun, But like I said,
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: that's why you have to you can't do it on
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: a regular basis because the other side is a completely
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: valid position.
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: Is Barry, I'm gonna have to disagree with you again.
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: My my, my opinion, my opinion is the only one
• 49:47
  Speaker 3: that's valid. You guys are just here for the Oh
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: you're you're exactly right. We'll take this up next week.
• 50:00
  Speaker 7: I gotta ask language standards here because I really want to.
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: Uh uh, but we we are we are PG, not
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: fish tank PG. We can go a little bit beyond
• 50:17
  Speaker 3: fish tank, somewhere between fish tank and fingernails.
• 50:21
  Speaker 7: So don't use it, Okay, I will not. I can,
• 50:26
  Speaker 7: I can do that. I'll have to work on it,
• 50:29
  Speaker 7: but I can manage.
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: And you're gonna leave a hanging, Okay, I'm going.
• 50:38
  Speaker 7: I was.
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: I was waiting for the big reveal here and nothing happened.
• 50:42
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, sometimes sometimes you just got to keep
• 50:47
  Speaker 7: people waiting. Yeah, okay, but actually did I actually did
• 50:53
  Speaker 7: have a deal going kind of going off with very
• 50:57
  Speaker 7: about how Samoa Joe you know, could make Will Hobbs
• 51:01
  Speaker 7: with his retirement match it's not completely a W related
• 51:08
  Speaker 7: but as I mentioned earlier, Anahashi's retirement match is coming.
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: Who they gonna be? Who did be?
• 51:18
  Speaker 7: Someone from A.
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: For what I did, I didn't got to be a
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: New Japan guy his last match.
• 51:26
  Speaker 6: Who's he put over?
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's got to be. It's got to be
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: do Japan.
• 51:33
  Speaker 4: It's gonna be World War it's gonna be a world
• 51:35
  Speaker 4: famous lord.
• 51:40
  Speaker 6: Or like somebody.
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they can't afford to put up any and they
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: can't afford to put anybody but a New Japan guy
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: over on This was my opinion. No, I definitely don't
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: think it's Takeshta. They've got to put over a tried
• 52:03
  Speaker 3: and true New Japan Pro wrestling talent. I I really
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: do firmly believe that.
• 52:10
  Speaker 8: It's going to be my predictable prediction Kelson, you already
• 52:14
  Speaker 8: know who.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: Kingston?
• 52:24
  Speaker 7: Yes, yeah, that's.
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: Got Now they can't it can't. The only reason I
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: would be happy if it was Eddie is if that
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: if they if a W traded a Eddie Kingston the
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: New Japan.
• 52:39
  Speaker 7: Don't you ruin my New Japan?
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: Serious? Because you know I have a lot of questions
• 52:48
  Speaker 3: about the women's tag team bracket because they announced it
• 52:53
  Speaker 3: sometime during or right after the Eddie Kingston and who
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: are you fought in the tailgate? Oh the frat house
• 53:05
  Speaker 3: with a hook as I turned that stuff off immediately,
• 53:09
  Speaker 3: and so I missed the announcement. That's why I was
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: asking did they say it was gonna be a pull gear?
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: Because I never went back and watched it. I've got
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: a po puri my own. It's really not a discussion topic,
• 53:21
  Speaker 3: but it's just something I thought you guys may be
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: interested in and maybe the audience would be interested in.
• 53:25
  Speaker 3: Friday Night CMLL, who's been on a tear lately. I
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: mean they've they've been putting, oh bidding on shows galore.
• 53:35
  Speaker 3: You you can watch CMLL on the CMLL YouTube channel.
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: It does cost twenty four ninety nine a month, but
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: my god, you get a lot of wrestling for twenty
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: four ninety nine a month as they put on a
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: show like what every two days and for sure. Yeah,
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: and they also have their archive up. So if you're
• 53:55
  Speaker 3: interested in CMLL, you know do that. But on Friday Night,
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: This Friday Night, they're having the Women's Grand Prix. Eighteen women,
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: nine CML women and nine from other companies. You've got
• 54:11
  Speaker 3: representation from Gosh, the Rev Pro mL W, Ring of Honor,
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: ae w oh TJPW in there. I'm not sure from AAW.
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: You've got Julia Hart, Sky Blue, Tekla, the entire Triangle
• 54:30
  Speaker 3: of Madness and Mina Shirakawa. That is going to be
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: one hell of a fun match and it's just gonna
• 54:41
  Speaker 3: be something. Now I don't know those structure to match
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: because I'm too lazy to look it up, and I
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: don't know what the winner gets. I'm assuming the winner
• 54:50
  Speaker 3: gets a shot at Mercedes Bone in the CMLL Championship,
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: at least, I would hope so. Or they just get
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: this big Honkin Trophy as Women's Grand Prix winner, you know,
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: and then they go about their business. But this is
• 55:05
  Speaker 3: this is the kind of yearly stuff that I love
• 55:09
  Speaker 3: and I am looking forward to it. You could also
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: have heard that if you watch it on if you
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: do get the cml L subscription, you'll be able to
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: watch this. But I've also heard there is a one
• 55:19
  Speaker 3: time by on Triller. Now the thing on Triller though
• 55:22
  Speaker 3: from what I've heard, and I believe it's Triller, Please
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: correct me if I'm wrong. Somebody in the chat, but
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: the Triller one comes with English commentary, where the CML
• 55:35
  Speaker 3: one will come with the normal Spanish commentary. Look, I
• 55:42
  Speaker 3: watched Startup all the time with the Japanese commentary. I'm
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: not lost. Wrestling is wrestling. You don't need Gordon Slowy
• 55:50
  Speaker 3: to tell you what a soup play is.
• 55:54
  Speaker 7: I do believe Thriller will have the English commentary. And
• 55:57
  Speaker 7: looking up the men's pre it was a twenty man elimination, Matt,
• 56:04
  Speaker 7: so I'm assuming the women's gonna work the same way.
• 56:07
  Speaker 7: Eighteen women eliminaced and you know final person wins it all.
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's on Friday night. It's coming from Arena Mexico,
• 56:18
  Speaker 3: which means it probably starts at eight or eight thirty
• 56:22
  Speaker 3: UH Pacific time, so it'll probably be around ten ten
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: thirty UH Eastern time.
• 56:29
  Speaker 2: Chris doesn't say who's doing commentary on the English.
• 56:33
  Speaker 7: I don't know who it is for sure. I know
• 56:35
  Speaker 7: a scout has done it before, so maybe her, and
• 56:41
  Speaker 7: I don't know if Rocky ran I don't think Rocky
• 56:43
  Speaker 7: Romara is going back to Japan for R Junior Tagley,
• 56:47
  Speaker 7: so it could be him.
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it, look, it just sounds I'm just
• 56:53
  Speaker 3: gonna watch for that match. I mean, the other matches
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: are gonna be fantastic. Look the other day they just
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: put on a all women's and this is important because
• 57:03
  Speaker 3: CBL I'll put on an all women's pay per view
• 57:07
  Speaker 3: and it was fantastic. AW can do it if if
• 57:14
  Speaker 3: they wanted to.
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: I've been thinking the same thing. I just I think
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: maybe Tony's kind of waiting on it too, you know,
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: at least after the tag team championships, you know, are
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: decided and everything. But I mean, at the same time,
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: would people actually sit down and watch it? Would it
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: get like a full crowd and everything. I mean, I
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: would love for it to TV.
• 57:40
  Speaker 6: I'd do a super show.
• 57:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would do like a Winter's one of the
• 57:44
  Speaker 3: one of the winter, if one of the Winter's coming things.
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: Why not just a brand new branding just for a women,
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: like a focal point for a women super show, like
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: a two and a half hour super show for them.
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, why not?
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: That could be a good start.
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: Why not? I mean AWS women division is really really good.
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: And of course you can also bring in women from
• 58:06
  Speaker 3: if you're going to do an all women's show, whether
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: it's a pay per viewer, just a special TV show,
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: like Barry was saying, you can also bring in women
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: from CMLL. You could bring in women from stardom to
• 58:16
  Speaker 3: make it even that much more special. So now there
• 58:23
  Speaker 3: you go. Anybody else have a pot pourri?
• 58:27
  Speaker 4: I do, go ahead. This is an interesting statistic. I
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: have to thank that wrestle Talk for this. I love
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: wrestle Talk. That's pretty much my favorite wrestling news source.
• 58:39
  Speaker 4: And when it comes to like daily like morning news videos.
• 58:43
  Speaker 7: But they were.
• 58:45
  Speaker 9: Talking about last night's Raw and Ollie Davis mentioned that
• 58:51
  Speaker 9: the oldest champion during the Attitude era was forty years old.
• 58:56
  Speaker 9: That was Brett Hart.
• 58:59
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 58:59
  Speaker 4: Interesting that age is now the average of champion of
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: WWE champions during this era.
• 59:10
  Speaker 3: Ah well is that what? Let me let me ask
• 59:16
  Speaker 3: you a question, Jess. Just that's the champions, that's not
• 59:20
  Speaker 3: the main events, because the main events at WWE over
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: the last six months have been damn near fifty.
• 59:28
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 59:29
  Speaker 4: Like, I'm I can probably like agree to that. Like
• 59:32
  Speaker 4: I don't really watch it. I just go buy the
• 59:33
  Speaker 4: news I get. But that sounds about right. The reason
• 59:39
  Speaker 4: he brought this up was because one of the.
• 59:41
  Speaker 9: Few young up and coming championship material stars they have
• 59:47
  Speaker 9: braun Breaker was placed in a position thanks to Seth
• 59:51
  Speaker 9: Rollins's sudden injury to actually be in a championship match.
• 59:58
  Speaker 9: And what would you like to know? Do you know
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 9: the match they booked instead?
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 3: No, I don't.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 4: It is CM Punk versus Shoot. Who is it? This
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 4: is how much I watched.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 6: It's true McIntyre, I think, right, Drew.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 3: I think so, Harley Rice.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: I thought Drew is feuding with Cody Rhodes right now,
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: So I don't know if it's Drew. At least that's
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: what I saw. I see the little clips. I haven't
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: watched w W in a very long time, but I
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: see little clips.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 4: Versus jay Us.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 5: So yeah, but.
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: I hate that word so much.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: To me.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 4: Is like throwing some went out a window.
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 5: Ye, yeah, I hear that.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 7: When I hear ye, I mean she immediately picture Uncle
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 7: Phil throwing out the house.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, heat is throwing somebody like you put something up
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 4: and across the room.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah that makes sense. Well, does anybody else have a potpourri?
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 8: I just have a comment about Russell Dream. I noticed
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 8: that this is one of the only or maybe very
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 8: few pay per views where no one destroyed the Spanish
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 8: announced table, and I was surprised. I thought Claudio was
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 8: maybe gonna throw Darby into the Spanish announced table.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 6: But they switched it up on me. So yeah, I was.
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 8: I was shocked that for once they didn't get.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 6: Their table destroyed.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 4: Miracle of miracles.
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, they sure did a number on the regular
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 3: announce stable, that's for sure.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 7: Every time.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 3: I mean, Claudia Castley grabbed Darby, Allen held him above
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 3: his head and you did it right out of the ring.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: There you go. If for any reason, Anthony Khan is
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 2: listening to this podcast, I understand it's a Saturday and
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: most people don't have to work on Sundays, but for
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: the love of God, brother, please on your pay per
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: views by eleven thirty. I don't care what day of
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: the week, but like, nobody wants to stay it past midnight.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 4: Man, Yeah, if you're gonna have them gone along something
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 4: to actually like.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I really enjoyed the afternoon papers.
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 1: Like to.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 7: Have something to do you're in the middle of I.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: Know that's not always pop possible, but like, if it's like,
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 2: especially if it's a Sunday, you gotta be done by
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: eleven thirty.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 6: Like you got it, Like, yeah, nobody wants it to go.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 7: That long man like yees Sunday Sunday, they absolutely need
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 7: to do the afternoon.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: I don't know at all. Yeah, I don't know if
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 3: it's my age or what. But like, for example, after
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: all In, which was on a Saturday at two, I
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 3: didn't recover from all In until like Monday at noon.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: Okay, so you guys are all on the East coast,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: I'm guessing. Yeah, yeah, ah, yes I am West Coast,
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: so you're eight eight, So I absolutely have no problem
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: with the time.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean it won't deal for me. For me,
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 7: it was over at eleven thirty, and I stayed up
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 7: and watched the new Japan Stoke that started at one am.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 7: So but yeah, time deal for the after noon shows.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 3: So it was just nice, you know it.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 7: You go, you pick up, you pick up some lunch,
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 7: you come home, you watch wrestling, and then you've still
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 7: got tonight too. Well it might tas be boring and
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 7: watch more wrestling, but you know, for normal people go
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 7: out and do something.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it ends at like eight thirty nine. Here, it
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: took my kids into a bed and then me and
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: my husband sit down and talk about from pay per view.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well one last thing that I want to make
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 3: a comment about, uh is Emmy Saker and Rio participated
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 3: in Starlight Kids tenth year anniversary show in Stardom. Jess,
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 3: you need to mute.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 6: Thank you.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 3: There you go. It was weird too because Amy Sacker
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 3: was actually on the well somewhat of a babyface team
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 3: and Rijo is definitely on the heel team. And Rijo
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 3: got the pin of all things. They were at a
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 3: three on three match, so it was interesting. I just
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 3: thought I just wanted to bring that up that that
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 3: was the first time that Rio has been in a
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 3: stardom match since twenty twenty. So, yeah, anybody else with
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 3: anything they want to bring.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 7: Up, well, I'm just gonna I believe that Starlight His
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 7: show is free on YouTube because there was a right
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 7: which their program, so you know, for anyone who wants
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 7: to watch it, it's up there.
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a it's a lot of special guests and whatnot.
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 3: My favorite spot was I don't I for a life
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 3: of me, I do not remember who Starlight Kids partners were,
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 3: but all three they went after the mask. There was
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 3: a three on three match. Starlight Kid had two men
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: on her side, Eldo right, dragging it. They got their
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 3: El Esperando and Dragon Kid got their masks ripped off,
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 3: like right at the beginning of a match, and then
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 3: they got them back immediately, but they got the wrong
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 3: masks back, so El Desperando had Dragon Kid's mask on,
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 3: and it was just it was this kind of, you know,
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 3: a tongue in cheek cute moment, and Starlight Kid apparently
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 3: booked the show, and she booked herself to lose on
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 3: her own tenth year anniversary show. Go figure, it went out,
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 3: so yep, she ate the pin so but it was
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 3: weird because you're an intergender match and they had the
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 3: women fighting the men, like that's the way it goes.
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 3: It's no like, okay, you tag it and that's it.
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 3: It's women versus No. The women fought the men and
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 3: they did a damn good thing. But it's actually really
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 3: kind of hysterical considering Starlight Kid is what all of
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 3: four foot nine, I mean, she's tiny, but my god,
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 3: is she phenomenal or you know, it's she could do
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 3: no wrong? Really, So.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 6: Do you think we ever get to see her in
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 6: aw TV? I hope So I think man, like, I
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 6: really don't love that.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 3: Well when what was it like before all out? Tony
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 3: Conn was asked who that's not in the company? Did?
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 3: Would he uh like to see? Which were?
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 7: Like?
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 3: Who are is her favorites? And he immediately named Starlight
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 3: Kid first one out of his mouth. I believe with
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 3: Starlight Kid, and of course is Zuomi you know, uh
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 3: so because with the men, there's really not any men
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 3: because he got them all So all right, Well, that's
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 3: gonna be the end of the show. We'll be back
• 1:08:00
