- 0:01Welcome to Washington. This is Lord trakula and welcome
- 0:08to the extra cooler show. No teeth.
- 0:11Beefaroni on a boat man. That's a problem right away.
- 0:43Welcome back to an extra credit episode of the extra cooler
- 0:46show. My name is Nick otherwise known
- 0:49as extra cooler and this week it's me and the Hop God Matt
- 0:53holdin it down with a very special extra credit episode, I
- 0:57know last week, we promised everybody bash at the beach
- 1:001998, but guess what plans change and you're going to have
- 1:04to wait till 4th of Week to enjoy us.
- 1:09Bashing. Bash each 1998.
- 1:11You dated there? Well done.
- 1:13Well done. As usual, you can find us on
- 1:15Instagram at extra cooler and join us over on our Discord
- 1:18Channel, which is in the show notes, right below the pretty
- 1:22little graphic that we made. So I do have to say before even
- 1:27getting into housekeeping. I think you took my notes from
- 1:30last week you had a little more hutzpah, exactly.
- 1:34I was better. I was gonna say man, it's it's
- 1:37good, maybe it's getting closer to summer for high school
- 1:40teacher over here. It's in sight, my kids had the
- 1:43last full day of school today. So they're all in, like, they're
- 1:48all in the summer mode, two, half days left.
- 1:51And you know, man, we're here, maybe, maybe we can play some
- 1:55golf after that, please. All right, you got some
- 1:58housekeeping to do I believe, right, I do so last week we did
- 2:03talk about the other side. Jack.
- 2:05Ask t-shirt and we couldn't remember what was on the back.
- 2:08So how could we forget, man? It is the iconic, like Stone,
- 2:13Cold Terminator style. So it's like to face set up,
- 2:17right? And I've got it up on the screen
- 2:18for us here, but on one side, it's Austin.
- 2:21Who doesn't have the full goatee?
- 2:24It's like a mustache and just chin.
- 2:27And then on the other side it looks like an x-ray looks like a
- 2:31Terminator style and its got like just the the bones behind
- 2:35it. And it's in this cool blue color
- 2:37and says Austin 3:16 on his forehead.
- 2:40So this was an iconic one and I don't know how we forgot.
- 2:44What was on the front of it? I can't.
- 2:46I can't believe that we forgot that it was other side jackass
- 2:50on the other on the other side and the best to we're on the
- 2:54same t-shirt and it's funny Ted wrestling for sale.
- 2:56Just posted that shirt with the back, the Terminator stuff on
- 3:01the back but on the front it must be a little rare one.
- 3:05Just got like a WWF logo on the chest and it was for this day
- 3:10and age reasonably priced at $130 man, so maybe it wasn't as
- 3:16rare as we thought. Yeah.
- 3:17Maybe it was rare. Be like 600, he's easily easily.
- 3:22And then the other half of housekeeping I took.
- 3:25I took notes in the moment, right?
- 3:26I wrote shit down for myself and I wrote in the in like the next
- 3:31week's show document, where I keep all the things and it's
- 3:35visible to you. You guys, I just wrote sound
- 3:36clip for Jim and I couldn't remember what it was and I
- 3:39remembered I wrote it down so I still don't remember that.
- 3:41I think I remember it as all talking eyes.
- 3:44I don't think I remember the context or I definitely don't
- 3:46remember the context, but Jim asks for a clip on the
- 3:49soundboard and here it is, I think he was asking for that in
- 3:58reference to Triple H on commentary.
- 4:02Oh my God, yes, I think that's what I write, we have.
- 4:05Um housekeeping on the house. Key hurry back Jim.
- 4:09Yeah but Jim, I'll play that one again for you because you made
- 4:14the request. It's 19, we're covering that
- 4:20summer of 1998 and I have a feeling we're going to be using
- 4:22that quite a bit in the next few weeks coming of it.
- 4:28But uh all right, let's love it. Let's hit it.
- 4:30Hit everybody with a quick. What's in the cooler?
- 4:33The extra cooler show and what's in the cooler is brought to you
- 4:35by Sloop Brewing Company. Sleep Brewing is known for their
- 4:37hazy and golden ipas like juice bomb and Supersoft be on the
- 4:41lookout for more coming from the extra cooler show and our
- 4:44favorite Brewery Sloop. I have brought Tequila surprised
- 4:50gasp alone. I said a few weeks ago, this is
- 4:53my Miller Lite of Tequila's, a go-to and got big handle.
- 4:58That's about halfway done. So I'm gonna have to re-up soon.
- 5:01Oh, here we go. I saw you post a one this
- 5:04weekend. No.
- 5:05Was that not as they related that was.
- 5:07That was a little different, a little bit more special.
- 5:10I'll break that out for the summer episodes, summer, 98
- 5:13episodes, It's not happy belated, Father's Day, I was
- 5:16going to ask you how the weekend went.
- 5:18Fast. Yeah, fast.
- 5:20And mine was, mine was long. We had a wedding Friday.
- 5:25Saturday was stuffed with plans, Sunday, got out to play golf
- 5:28with my dad and then Monday was like supposed to be recovery
- 5:32turned into just more chaos and yeah, here we are.
- 5:36Yeah, exactly. Here we are on Tuesday.
- 5:38But for my, what's in the cooler?
- 5:40I have, to be honest, I'm sitting here and I am sipping a
- 5:44green tea with mint is as my throat is.
- 5:48Start act up a little bit man. So it's, it's a little scratchy
- 5:52today. But I did bring a beer, I have a
- 5:54can in my hand, I'll take a screenshot.
- 5:56If anybody do that, doesn't blow.
- 5:58Oh gee, it's I haven't cracked it open yet, but I had a Brewery
- 6:02Ommegang rare Vos in my fridge, which was at one point, my
- 6:07number one top beer. But prior to all of this
- 6:10northeast, this New England IPA style that really came into my
- 6:15life. But this was what, I made sure I
- 6:17drank on my wedding day. I was going to say we were in
- 6:19around that morning trying to go find bottles, I think, I don't
- 6:22remember if it was my brother-in-law and you or just
- 6:25an but it's an Amber ale with orange peel grains of paradise
- 6:29and coriander and it is truly one of my favorites.
- 6:32I think that the Belgian style yeast that they use really is
- 6:38something that differentiates itself from a normal Amber ale.
- 6:42And that's why I enjoy it so much but Brewery Ommegang
- 6:45Cooperstown, New York. We had our Bachelor by Bachelor.
- 6:48Party up there and we went to the brewery even though I was
- 6:50way too hungover to enjoy it, it was still beautiful place back.
- 6:55Then I would love to see it. Now, question is having like
- 7:00summer concert series out there where you'd be able to like jit
- 7:03acts to? Yeah.
- 7:04See a show in camp out and like it.
- 7:07The grounds are awesome. The building is incredible.
- 7:10I highly recommend if you're ever in Cooperstown for the
- 7:12Baseball Hall of Fame, which is why most people go there,
- 7:15definitely check out Ommegang, but Ears.
- 7:18With my t-shirt. Like beer.
- 7:21I'm letting myself down. You introduce me as the Hop.
- 7:23God. And I'm drinking tea.
- 7:25Yeah. It's all right.
- 7:26You get a free pass every once in a while.
- 7:29All right. Sorry, I should hand it off to
- 7:34the right at this point. It's been a while since just you
- 7:38and I have recorded a extra credit episode.
- 7:41Yeah but yeah I was pausing and waiting for the handoff but
- 7:45let's let's dive into a I think it's going to be a lengthy
- 7:49lengthy extra credit segment here.
- 7:50So let's do it. The extra cooler show is a proud

- 8:03between ourselves. The chick Foley show, turnbuckle

- 8:36chalk line pod Foundation, save you, 10% at checkout, p.f. 10.
- 8:40There you go, rock and roll. Let's Dive Right In, man.
- 8:43I feel like there's a lot to talk about.
- 8:46We have some extended time as we don't have a homework match or
- 8:50homework event this week. So we'll let's start off by.
- 8:53We are sitting here recording, on Tuesday, and while we will
- 8:56not be able to report on the results I have On my iPad, to my
- 9:01left here and XT is playing in the background.
- 9:04All, because Seth Rollins will take on Braun breaker.
- 9:07I almost said, Braun strowman Braun breaker here on NXT.
- 9:13I'm really intrigued by this man.
- 9:14I the back and forth that they gave us Braun showing up and
- 9:18having a clip on Raw this past week or last night, I'm really
- 9:24interested in what they do and their feels like there's an
- 9:27inkling and I don't think it can Happen.
- 9:30But there's a little seed of Doubt, of they could actually
- 9:33pull off a switch here with one more raw before we get to money
- 9:38in the bank. I know we're going to talk a lot
- 9:40more about money in the bank next week, but it's, you know,
- 9:45man, everybody's gonna know the results tomorrow when they
- 9:48listen to this episode, but it wouldn't surprise me.
- 9:50If Say Finn Balor gets himself involved.
- 9:53There it is. Yeah, I don't know.
- 9:55It's but I'm super curious. I'm super into it and Men, how
- 9:59can you not Love everything that Rollins is doing with this title
- 10:02right off the bat. Seriously man.
- 10:04And he even said it last night during his little promo
- 10:07afterwards of like, that's the Finn Balor.
- 10:09I was looking for for the last seven years and really what he
- 10:13is bringing out of Vin. I'm thoroughly enjoying as well.
- 10:17In this vicious newish, new style of fin who's been almost
- 10:22joking around in the, his past forms leaving NXT.
- 10:27Coming back up to the main roster.
- 10:29Now finding him Self aligned with judgement day.
- 10:31I mean there's been some serious pieces but there's also been a
- 10:34lot of like sarcastic stick along with it.
- 10:38Like it's not comedy but it's more along the lines of like
- 10:42this is, this is like we're having a good time.
- 10:45We're not being take rice all seriously when you stand next to
- 10:47Da Mysterio, I guess you kind of have to lean in yet.
- 10:50But yeah, all of that is changing and it, it feels really
- 10:52cool. So I'll have it on the
- 10:54background. Maybe it'll finish by the time
- 10:56we finished recording. I'm here for it though.
- 11:00Set versus Brawn speaking of money in the bank, which has a
- 11:03set up for Fin and Seth Rollins to face off for the heavyweight
- 11:07title. We got Logan, Paul added to the
- 11:10men's Money in the Bank match last night on Monday Night Raw.
- 11:14And this, this means we know the winner now, right?
- 11:18Thanks for set up. I so, I decide, I think we said
- 11:22this last night, you think he's gonna, welcome Paul?
- 11:24I do see, I see it more as this is a way to set up some sort of
- 11:29Feud For Logan, Paul at SummerSlam, right?
- 11:32He's a big names. Big draw.
- 11:33He's got his contract, he needs a match at SummerSlam.
- 11:37And so, here's my one thing that would lean me away from him
- 11:43winning money in the bank, right?
- 11:44He's already feuded with Roman and he's already feuded with
- 11:48Seth, right? And I don't see the title coming
- 11:51off of Seth. I don't see the title coming off
- 11:53of Roman. So why put money in the bank and
- 11:57Logan Paul's hands, just Possibly Feud with those guys,
- 12:01again, I don't know, I don't know.
- 12:05Wouldn't surprise me if it's not Logan.
- 12:07I don't know who I'm kind of hoping it's Damien.
- 12:11So that was I was looking at these names were sit.
- 12:14We're sitting here one week out with Logan Paul Santos, Escobar
- 12:19La night, Ricochet Damien, priest, Butch, not that Butch.
- 12:23You don't have to talk about jobbers and shins gay Nakamura.
- 12:27Those are our 7 here, and The only one that makes sense for
- 12:31Logan Paul, to begin a feud with is Damian priest in my eyes.
- 12:36So if you're going down you're you're booking path.
- 12:40That's that's like the only thing that can make sense maybe
- 12:43Ricochet because they had that Royal Rumble spot.
- 12:46Yeah, you know that you can go down that path but it's there's
- 12:50no right. We're looking for, there's no
- 12:53consequence, there's no end goal.
- 12:55There's nothing at the end of the rainbow for them to be
- 12:57fighting over aside from you cause Me my money in the bank,
- 13:01every price, like, right. I just maybe that's what they
- 13:04fight over and Damian priest feels like before Logan.
- 13:08Paul was added. That was my, that was my pick.
- 13:11Even though la night feels like they're playing him as this heel
- 13:15and the crowd wants them to be a baby face.
- 13:17So bad, the Pops that this dude is getting is insane and it's
- 13:22very strange. She's coming out and slapping
- 13:24Ray Ray Mysterio across the face and getting cheered.
- 13:28I don't get it. I don't know.
- 13:29What they're doing with him. But even when they strolled
- 13:32everyone out on Monday night except for Damien strangely
- 13:35enough Ellie night, got this massive pop on Monday Night Raw
- 13:39and I just it that's throwing me off too.
- 13:41But this is this is why I think I'm most excited for this money
- 13:45in the bank. It feels like an old-school.
- 13:48You tool to bring a guy from the mid mid card up to the top of
- 13:53the top of the card here and Elevate them.
- 13:56Another step. Bring them up another level and
- 14:00I don't know. It it may not end up that way,
- 14:02it may be just turns into Gunther fodder.
- 14:06That's where the, that's where the cash in happened, but I
- 14:09don't know, man. It feels like we actually have a
- 14:12true like moment making type scenario of a guy that's going
- 14:18to take a step up after the briefcase.
- 14:21Yeah, I like it, though. Like you said, let me too, I'm
- 14:24here for. That's the best part about
- 14:26wrestling is when you don't know the outcome and when you can
- 14:29Predict the outcome but it makes you want to talk about the
- 14:32outcome. Yeah, absolutely.
- 14:34Absolutely. And it even feels like Santa's
- 14:37Escobar is getting a big push on the on the WWE side but that one
- 14:41feels like a red herring to me, but we'll talk more next week.
- 14:44We'll have more background to what's actually going to go on
- 14:47coming into money in the bank. But one more thing that I may be
- 14:51even more intrigued about from a WWE side within honorable
- 14:54mention here is Bianca Bel-Air and the way that they've booked
- 14:58her on Smackdown, the last two weeks, This past week, they show
- 15:02her in Adam, Pierce's office talking about her rematch and
- 15:06how she went about getting it the right way.
- 15:09But now I'm going to do it my way.
- 15:10She comes out into the into the segment where the Waller effect
- 15:16with Charlotte Flair. She's getting up in Charlotte's
- 15:18face there is a lot of NXT, Bianca being shown right here,
- 15:23this potential heels term, this edgy teetering on the heel side
- 15:30But I'm, I'm in love with this idea.
- 15:33I am in love with them turning this woman, he'll ish.
- 15:38Maybe you can find that nice happy medium path that you know,
- 15:42was Stone. Cold is always, you know, put
- 15:44this on a table level to how you can find a 20 year, but I don't
- 15:48know man. Maybe I'm not thinking through
- 15:50the kid lens that I was talking about a couple of weeks ago with
- 15:54Cody Rhodes and that I would never go against that but man,
- 15:59I'm loving Being this Bianca and the potential for what it could
- 16:02be. I think like everybody, you
- 16:05know, it just shows like the human aspect of her character.
- 16:09Like I don't I don't see her going full heel as cool as it
- 16:14would be and I would be behind it but I don't see how it would
- 16:17work because like you just said that, it's that kid Factor.
- 16:20She is the girl, the female role model.
- 16:24There's no one I can close that guy.
- 16:26Greg calls her Jane Cena. Right?
- 16:28That's right. That's the Reasoning behind it
- 16:31but seen ahead edgy moment. So you know.
- 16:34Yeah, I don't know. All right, touche touche, I'll
- 16:37take that one but I don't know, man.
- 16:38I'm just, I'm here for watching a character evolve in this.
- 16:43Feels like the beginnings of an evolution for Bianca Bel-Air,
- 16:47who has felt like she has played the same yep.
- 16:50Jane Cena since she's gotten up to the main roster, there's been
- 16:54really no, major few. No, major changes to the
- 16:58character until now Our she's like, you know, put respect on
- 17:02my name because I'm the longest reigning Women's Champion.
- 17:05The modern era in like tol told Charlotte that she didn't have
- 17:09to lose it 14 times. Yeah.
- 17:13So I'm enjoying it. I'm here for the ride.
- 17:15I think we'll be talking about this topic for, you know, top 3
- 17:19S to come. So I will let this one play out
- 17:21a little bit more. But before, before we move into
- 17:25the last piece of honorable mention, I it didn't last long
- 17:29guys. Nice.
- 17:30Here's the beer, cheers for real, I guess I can done the tea
- 17:34is done. I sat here, I was like, I still
- 17:36need something to drink as were chatting here.
- 17:38So I've seen you sip on your tequila, so there's my rare
- 17:41Voss. Cheers.
- 17:45Okay, let's move over to a TW for the last piece of honorable
- 17:50mention here. We have forbidden door coming up
- 17:53this Sunday. We've talked about how these are
- 17:57dream matches between Kenny Omega, And we'll Osprey who
- 18:00we've seen and is probably still the match of the Year candidate.
- 18:04All the way back from wrestle Kingdom in January Danielson
- 18:08against okada Sonata against jungle boy.
- 18:11All right, fine and then mjf and Takahashi is the card that's
- 18:15listed on Wikipedia right now, we also know that orange Cassidy
- 18:19who's been putting on. Absolute bangers.
- 18:21Has a challenge accepted from Zach, saber, Junior.
- 18:26All of these things are matches. That is worth watching.
- 18:29I mean, the story is irrelevant when you have these forbidden
- 18:32doors but right, really interesting that we have three
- 18:36four out of the five potential matches at this point.
- 18:39Our Champions and the one that's not is Danielson and okada which
- 18:45doesn't need a tongue because those two are going to be insane
- 18:48to watch. It's like you said, it's a dream
- 18:53matches. They don't need the story.
- 18:55It's going to be is going to be a lot of fun.
- 18:57Yeah I'm here I will be watching.
- 18:59It will be a Ton of fun. I think, we'll, we can
- 19:01potentially get some match of the Year candidates out of this
- 19:05entire card. Maybe there's even multiples as
- 19:07we're look out ahead. But man.
- 19:10Oh, man, this this, this is like wrestling heaven, right?
- 19:15Mikey work-rate should be having a blast with this one.
- 19:20All right, let's move into the extra cooler, top three for real
- 19:23this time, let's start with Story.
- 19:25Number three, rewinding back to Wednesday Dynamite last week.
- 19:30Maxwell Jacob Friedman and Adam Cole put on a show man their
- 19:3630-minute time limit draw in the title Eliminator match was
- 19:42booked so. Well the fact that this match
- 19:46last 30 minutes the time draw happens You 10 minutes, 10
- 19:50minutes to go, and it gets announced in the in the arena.
- 19:55They don't speak about it from the announcer standpoint, but it
- 19:58planted that little seed in the back of my head of like, oh man,
- 20:01this is Going the Distance. This is gonna be fun.
- 20:04Lo and behold, we get a ref bump, mjf gets the title we
- 20:07have, if you're in the Discord won't be a surprise to you.
- 20:10We have a picture of Adam Cole holding the belt above around
- 20:14his, that his crotchal area, where his tights are.
- 20:18And it looks like, Is paying homage to Shawn Michaels as he
- 20:21looks naked in this picture but man mjf throws him the title,
- 20:30he's drops like Eddie Guerrero this time the ref falls back
- 20:33down and now Cole has the opportunity to hit mjf with the
- 20:37title. Chances is starting up of you
- 20:39effed up to mjf. He gets nailed with it and then
- 20:43we have a little bit of a sloppiness.
- 20:45We see the dynamite diamond ring, being passed from the
- 20:48referee Over 2 m, JF, but I can ignore that.
- 20:51It's fine. We're moving forward.
- 20:53And Panama Sunrise. Lowers the boom 12 and then the
- 20:57middle of it, the Bell Rings. 30-minute time limit draw.
- 21:01I wrote down. What a finish Cole grabs, the
- 21:04mic asked for 5 more minutes and of course, mjf walks right out.
- 21:09This match was incredible. I thoroughly enjoyed every
- 21:12single minute of that 30-minute match these two.
- 21:16Can they did what they should have done?
- 21:19Done, you know, like extends the story and I'm not, I'm totally
- 21:23fine with it. You know, sometimes I guess you
- 21:25could look at like through our WWE WWF fandom, like weed, you
- 21:31never see the time limit draw, you never never like Bret Hart.
- 21:35Shawn Michaels, Iron Man match. That was like the closest thing
- 21:38to a time limit draw, when it the match ended, but then
- 21:41Gorilla Monsoon extended the match like to sudden death.
- 21:46It's an interesting way. I'm here for it.
- 21:49As long as this Feud continues, you have to have find a way for
- 21:53this view to continue, which you've got to imagine that it
- 21:55will we were curious as to like, how are they going to make this
- 22:00story work with? Now, you've got The Takahashi
- 22:03challenge. You have forbidden door in the
- 22:05way you're headed off to England for all in and all out.
- 22:09And all of these things are coming down the pipe.
- 22:11And how do you start a story? With Eliminator Challenge.
- 22:15And what is it? You just gonna brush Adam Cole
- 22:19off to the side immediately. So, this was a really unique
- 22:22nice way of extending the story. I think you put that perfectly
- 22:27and these dudes can work, man. Oh, without a doubt that's like
- 22:30the, the one little flaw, though, about forbidden door,
- 22:33they just like sneak in these giant matches like, like, is
- 22:38cold going to get involved. Where's Cole fit on this card?
- 22:41You know, like he's entering the main event picture obviously.
- 22:44I mean, mjf told them he wasn't going to fight in India.
- 22:46Jobber. Pretty much.
- 22:47Right, right. And this is Takahashi, man.
- 22:51So like it. If we end up getting the match,
- 22:54cold will likely get involved costs, I don't know.
- 22:58It says, no, it says for the aew championship.
- 23:01So there's like, not a way that mjf can lose, right?
- 23:05It's all weird man. And I think that, that's part of
- 23:08the drawback of this forbidden door.
- 23:10It's really cool. Like, don't get me wrong, I'm
- 23:12excited for it, and the work. Great is tremendous and build
- 23:17great restless, and it's a nice like Side Story of like, hey,
- 23:22here we are, right. It happening within the excuse.
- 23:26My words, it happening within the aew universe, right?
- 23:31How does this? And it almost feels like it
- 23:34needs a neutral territory, right?
- 23:36Like what happens when there's like disasters in New Orleans,
- 23:41right? And they had to move the Saints
- 23:42game. They played it in neutral
- 23:44territory. Tory.
- 23:44Right, right. It feels like that is almost
- 23:47necessary a maybe. This was the way to get aw to
- 23:51England is have this super show of forbidden door that just
- 23:56exists on its own row. Last year, it was really
- 24:00hamstrung by injuries and Tony couldn't deliver what he wanted
- 24:04to deliver. And this time around you've got
- 24:07all of chess pieces here and ready to go.
- 24:10Is there man and it's like a makeup channel right?
- 24:13Just tell Um stories will get one which will get to will get
- 24:16to, but I'm still worries. All right, let's move off of
- 24:21aew. Let's head to Story.
- 24:23Number, two Jey Uso on Smackdown, has chosen his side.
- 24:29Oh man, let's let's head off to the Roman verse 4.
- 24:32Story number two, I am so impressed with the little things
- 24:37that WWE is doing in this story arc like they are it's the
- 24:43little nod from Sammy 2J, right before he walks out.
- 24:47And right before the segment starts that, you know, you won't
- 24:49see in a recap clip, right? You won't see that piece on
- 24:53Twitter but it's for those that pay attention, those that have
- 24:57been invested in the story all along, that's a nice nod of.
- 25:01All right? Jay is going out and he's
- 25:03finally doing what Sam Sammy is told him to do for so long.
- 25:06Then you get all of this storytelling dating back to the
- 25:10Thunderdome in 2020. That's paying off in 2023, right
- 25:13in front of her. Her eyes and I just it, it feels
- 25:18so validating, like it, put in, especially assholes like us with
- 25:22microphones band, like, but it's so much time and effort into
- 25:26this. These products on both brands on
- 25:29any brand. If you extended even further, I
- 25:31mean I still have an x t on the corner here, but like the fact
- 25:35that they're not insulting our intelligence and shit that
- 25:38happens in 2020, still exists in the Roman verse in 2023.
- 25:43But strip is validating man. Yeah, it's like watching a
- 25:47long-term. It's like watching your favorite
- 25:49show when it continues from season to season, and it's a
- 25:53really good point. You know, like I've wished him
- 25:55was here of just for the line that he uses on people.
- 25:58When they say, like, when people make fun of you for watching
- 26:01wrestling it's just like any other television show or movie
- 26:04that you watch. And this story is a prime
- 26:06example like him. I'm sorry.
- 26:09I see people on social media that like bitch and moan about
- 26:12this storyline. And how its That good.
- 26:14It's like, okay. Do you just hate WWE?
- 26:17Like you just trying to find reasons not to like it.
- 26:20Like I don't understand how you can't watch this and not find it
- 26:25intriguing but yeah man I mean Vince Vince told us all those
- 26:29years ago, right? We make movies.
- 26:33I wish everybody could see that click like' the video of it of
- 26:36him, just like, picking whatever food out of his teeth and
- 26:41chewing his water. I think that's how you invite
- 26:43Splendid. And I think that's the perfect
- 26:47way to explain the, yeah. Don't worry.
- 26:50Right. Right now.
- 26:51It, I think you saying, like this is The Sopranos man, like
- 26:55this is out of this is out of movie territory.
- 26:58It's moved out of Good Fellows. And now it's into six seven
- 27:02seasons of Easier of the Roman verse in the head of the table
- 27:06mini series drama of like, it's such a good call for that.
- 27:10But let's, let's ask what needs to be asked?
- 27:16Why is there three titles still are on our screens?
- 27:21I don't know. I saw him and I was like wait
- 27:23why does he have those two belts?
- 27:25I mean it looked beautiful. Don't get me wrong.
- 27:27They have the the locker room set up and Roman is reading off
- 27:31the teleprompter. He does really well.
- 27:33All during those, those those backstage segments because his
- 27:37eyes are locked somewhere else, but it looked beautiful on the
- 27:41table. They had it lit.
- 27:42Really well, there are lights underneath that the red and the
- 27:44blue belt. And is he just like Yugioh
- 27:47maniac and don't know the show off everything he's got, like I
- 27:50forget where I heard it. A while ago, probably cheap eat.
- 27:54It's just, I don't know. It's got to have something to do
- 27:56with the fact that he needs to carry as many belts as possible.
- 27:59Yeah, I don't know. I have I have no idea but it It
- 28:03feels very strange to watch Heyman carrying these two with
- 28:07Roman carrying the new golden one around his waist.
- 28:10I just it all feels very, very strange.
- 28:13But hey, maybe they maybe they pay us off again, right?
- 28:16I just said, they're yeah, they're doing a good thing.
- 28:18A good job of telling us why. But ma'am getting into the
- 28:22segment itself to No Surprise. It is gold.
- 28:26As usual, when you're coming down into these big, big moments
- 28:30within the bloodline storytelling Jimmy and Men are
- 28:33both making their pitch to Jay, why they should join their side.
- 28:37You know, when, when he was named the right-hand Man Jimmy
- 28:41was the one who was against. It is what's Roman a saying?
- 28:44Jimmy admits that it's true. Jay gets up into his face and
- 28:47when he starts, dropping his chute name of Joshua, like
- 28:52because, you know, what's best for both of us?
- 28:54Listen to your older brother. Joshua is all I heard growing up
- 28:57like that one was like I'm yeah I didn't watch on time.
- 29:01I'd said I had a wedding on Friday.
- 29:03Night. So somebody in our group shared
- 29:06it and of course, I wasn't going to avoid social media of what
- 29:09was going on and I knew the outcome.
- 29:12But as I'm watching this, I am still glued to the television,
- 29:17which is like Beyond impressive. It's it's kudos to both Usos but
- 29:22Jay is specially is like when he's got his demeanor and
- 29:27delivery is on point. And you know at some point he's
- 29:33almost Predictable in the fact like when he superkicked Sammy
- 29:37and when he super like, you knew where he was going with this, it
- 29:40felt like it. You knew where he was going with
- 29:42this but I was still hooked on the entire thing.
- 29:45Like I wanted to hear what he was going to say.
- 29:47I feel like that's part of the validation.
- 29:48It is oh 100%, you're not you're not out here to Swerve.
- 29:53Me. You're right, you're over here
- 29:54to take me for a ride and you said it really well with J's
- 29:58performance and I've been saying he deserves an Emmy or an Oscar
- 30:01or whatever the hell's he gonna get.
- 30:03Get easily but like the the way that he delivers and I'm going
- 30:08to, we're going to play a little of the of an extended play clip
- 30:11here, but listen to the crowd man after he says, what he says
- 30:15and the kick comes, we all know what happened.
- 30:17We're all nerds were all watching this shit, so you're
- 30:19not hearing it for the first time, but as he kicks Roman,
- 30:22just listen to the, the, just the crowd, expand and explode.
- 30:27So, let's listen to it because it deserves it, and it was that
- 30:29good. But blessed happened in,
- 30:31Disguise you got her Hurt. I stepped up immediately to
- 30:36SmackDown. I've made it a pay per views of
- 30:38main event of WrestleMania. You know why?
- 30:41They know us. Now, I'm the right-hand man made
- 30:44a video that you so, and it's all because of him.
- 30:53So, guess what? You, wow.
- 31:05And I'm out too. So good.
- 31:14So good, man. And we were recording, is you
- 31:17play it again. The crowd is in the palm of J's
- 31:21hand. He the crowd gets absolutely
- 31:24silent. He says, you're out.
- 31:27And the crowd is like, Oh, and it gets absolutely silent in the
- 31:30arena of 18 to 20,000. I don't know, maybe I'm
- 31:34over-exaggerating, they were in Kentucky or something like that,
- 31:37so it's probably like 15 ish thousand.
- 31:39I'm just guessing anyway. They are they're just sitting
- 31:44there and they're absolutely quiet and then he goes I'm out
- 31:47to and then the swell and to the superkick in the Boom in the
- 31:51explosion and the reaction of Roman in the little things
- 31:56again, right? See, Paul Heyman, who knows
- 31:58exactly where he is exactly how to a moat.
- 32:00He's right there in the background.
- 32:03You see solo off to the side like flabbergasted like that's
- 32:07that's the only word I have of. He's like, holy shit.
- 32:11Where am I going now? What's Like now and then at the
- 32:15end of it solo takes a superkick.
- 32:18Then Roman takes a double superkick as he's throwing a
- 32:20temper, tantrum and steps to the use O's and the screen goes
- 32:23black. Here we are the Bloodlines Civil
- 32:26War. This is like, this is this is
- 32:28what this is Marvel Universe, right?
- 32:30They, they hired Rob fee, the feels like this is, you know,
- 32:34going back to the Marvel Universe and we have these lud
- 32:36lines, Civil War set for money in the bank.
- 32:40The graphic alone, you know, this isn't the end either.
- 32:43ER man like oh you know, this is going to lead to something at.
- 32:46SummerSlam has two right there. They always say SummerSlam is
- 32:50like they're there number two behind WrestleMania, right?
- 32:54So this storyline doesn't have, it's not going to end and it's
- 32:58not going to end at SummerSlam, but it's going to lead this
- 33:00pay-per-view money in the bank, is going to lead to something
- 33:03bigger at SummerSlam is my assumption.
- 33:05It feels like it has two, and it's dividing the lines.
- 33:08Now, you have the Usos against solo and Roman and I am still
- 33:12Man, there's been a lot of talk of J taking the title off, a
- 33:16Roman Rite. And I I still am on my solo
- 33:20train, man, if I'm still standing here on this, this solo
- 33:24drain is to two words or two meetings on it.
- 33:27What's the very term for that? Where's Jim?
- 33:30When we need them? Damn it, Jesus.
- 33:32But for real, though, like this one, to me, feels like it's, you
- 33:36know, Roman said they were in the third inning or fourth
- 33:39inning, it feels like now we're in the fifth.
- 33:40And since then we have the A to keep us invested in continue to
- 33:45go down this path. As they continue to keep us
- 33:48invested, they continue to pay us back in all of these small
- 33:51things that us nerds can nerd out about and it's still hitting
- 33:58all of the mainstream WWE fans that can be along for the ride
- 34:01to. So I love it.
- 34:03Kudos wow, Bravo chefs kiss, but it did not capture our story
- 34:09number one, believe it or not, because we have a brand new
- 34:12show. Show to talk about aew Collision
- 34:15happened. This past Saturday emanating
- 34:17from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
- 34:21Of course, CM Punk is all over this Sky the as expected as
- 34:25announced all of that. But let's start with the theme
- 34:28music. You shared in our group chat,
- 34:31Elton John theme song is Saturday night.
- 34:36Alright, for a fight, I think. Did I butcher the lyrics?
- 34:40I probably did know. You gotta?
- 34:42Anyway, It didn't hit for me man.
- 34:45Man I don't know to me personally creatively I feel
- 34:49like they hired a guy that knows all the tools of Photoshop or
- 34:54whatever After Effects It. Whatever programs they use to
- 34:57create these things and he just uses every single tool and it's
- 35:01just like an explosion of graphics and then let's just
- 35:04double over some music to it like that.
- 35:07Tony, conscient can shell out the money for.
- 35:09That's exactly how I felt to me. The audio didn't match with the
- 35:14visual. Yeah, they were two separate
- 35:16experiences in my brain. I don't know if it's just
- 35:19because I don't associate wrestling with Elton.
- 35:22John, like maybe I think they could have made you, you could
- 35:25have made it. Work it there, I don't know.
- 35:27Personally, a double use graphic department is dog shit.
- 35:31It looks clean. It looks good, but it is like
- 35:33sensory overload for my eyes. Everything is too much.
- 35:38Maybe I'm trained for everything to be syncopated like everything
- 35:41as as a as The music hits like you see is superkick happened,
- 35:45like yeah beat of the song happening at the same time like
- 35:50and this one was unlike any of that and males may I agree the
- 35:55tavern guys you know? The tavern guys say fed brain,
- 35:59right? Maybe it's the FED break.
- 36:00We might be creeping in and I'm just so used to what we see as
- 36:04these upper echelon top-tier video packaging since what
- 36:10WrestleMania 17 Wrestlemania 19 like Like these, these packages
- 36:14have been tremendous for our entire lives.
- 36:16Even dating back before that but oh easily this.
- 36:20This theme just didn't hit for me.
- 36:22Even though literally like in the lyrics itself, obviously
- 36:27fit. It just wasn't.
- 36:28Yeah. I didn't hate it.
- 36:30I didn't hate it. Like, like you're saying, but I
- 36:32agree. It wasn't.
- 36:33It is what it is. But yet what you said, you said,
- 36:36we have a Saturday show to watch be on this show.
- 36:40Is any like, I mean, come on. I would love to, I'm not a
- 36:43numbers guy, but I'd be so I'm super curious to see what
- 36:47happens from this past debut. And then like, let's see what
- 36:53July says, yep. I don't know, because you can't
- 36:57tell me that your people are going to be watching every
- 36:59single Saturday, it man, it doesn't feel like, that's what
- 37:03it's about, either, right wrist? No, I agree.
- 37:06You have to assume that Tony knows what he's getting into,
- 37:10right? And like Saturday night.
- 37:12White isn't necessarily a wrestling in the Forefront of my
- 37:17brain, and even with a pay-per-view, like I struggle to
- 37:20make time for Saturday pay-per-views unless they're
- 37:23WrestleMania or something like that, where we can make a vent
- 37:26out of it. Like we did it slip this past
- 37:27year. So for me it's a clear secondary
- 37:33show and really the lack of Storytelling that they did here.
- 37:39Is backing up the fact that this may just be another good work
- 37:44rate. Like, I enjoyed the wrestling,
- 37:46like the wrestling was good to great in some scenarios.
- 37:49I really enjoyed the Kevin Kelly and Nigel, McGuinness on the
- 37:53call, it was refreshing and different.
- 37:55I know people were really like swooning over the Andrade and
- 37:59Buddy Matthews match. It didn't hit 100% for me.
- 38:03Either. I didn't I just didn't like the
- 38:05stoppage in the middle. I think it took me out of it
- 38:07when they had the injury are available to the guys.
- 38:10They also announced buddy Matthews as buddy Murphy.
- 38:12I don't know if you caught that in catch, that, that is in the
- 38:15announcements. Like the ring announcer
- 38:17introduced him as buddy Murphy and he knows sold it.
- 38:20I was really impressed by that of, like, if it was me out of
- 38:22it, looked at Julia, heart beating what the hell?
- 38:25But, you know, Mash was good. There's there's so much to talk
- 38:29about and I apologize. You said it like the lack of
- 38:32ability story to tell stories and I was dying to get on right
- 38:37after double double or nothing when you and Jim.
- 38:39You did an excellent job covering it but I had a
- 38:43realization for me. Me personally.
- 38:46And maybe it's that fed brain that you spoke of.
- 38:50Aw, just I have a hard time sinking my teeth into any of
- 38:55their stories, like nothing is gripping, Everything feels last
- 39:00minute or just pieced together and then it's like, oh, let's
- 39:04have a match because I don't know.
- 39:07These guys are the only people who support cm You know, like so
- 39:10they're going to team up with him.
- 39:12I don't know. I don't, I don't can't quite put
- 39:15my finger on it, but I think I don't feel invested in any of
- 39:19the story lines easily, you know?
- 39:21And that's been my take on it and I'm here every single week,
- 39:24without fail. I find time to watch every
- 39:27single episode of dynamite. I have fallen off drastically on
- 39:29rampage. And I know that even the hardest
- 39:32of the hard cores and I always I always compare to what the, what
- 39:37the tavern boys are doing and even those guys don't watch.
- 39:40Yeah, Rampage every single week, so can I just take a moment?
- 39:45No, you go, no God. No, I was gonna say to me, it's
- 39:48hard for me. It's hard to follow the stories.
- 39:51It's always feels start, stop it always and, you know, maybe
- 39:55Luger source and Wardlow is a perfect example of starts to
- 39:57stop. Like, they just put the title on
- 39:59Ward. They took the TNT title off of
- 40:02Wardlow, put it on Luger Source. Sure.
- 40:04There's a story of their their sowing seeds of Lucha source and
- 40:08Christian and Celebrating with the title.
- 40:11Even muchas Horas wasn't seen holding the title, the entire
- 40:14time. So maybe that's the first seed
- 40:15of Storytelling that they had. Maybe it's Andrade and Buddy
- 40:19Matthews and the house of black showing up afterwards and now
- 40:23Andrade needs to go find his his faction.
- 40:25Like but none of that did anything for me.
- 40:28None of that. Made me want to tune in the next
- 40:29week. But what were you going to say?
- 40:31God? No, I just and I hate to compare
- 40:34it, but look at what we're doing right now.
- 40:36Both of us have on in the background and T Braun breaker.
- 40:40Seth Rollins like because we're interested in what's going on
- 40:44with his story and I wonder if aw they like I feel like they
- 40:51start a lot of their feuds or try to start a lot of their
- 40:54feuds by throwing a match together like the Buddy Matthews
- 40:58and Andrade like let's just throw these guys in a match and
- 41:00that's how their feuds going to kick off.
- 41:02Like that doesn't always work. You need more than that.
- 41:06You need stuff backstage. Especially this day and age.
- 41:09And you can't just throw two guys in the ring and expect the
- 41:13story to come from that match or whatever happened in that match,
- 41:17right? And Ricky Starks entering, the
- 41:20Owen is probably the only other side of like that backstage
- 41:25package that you spoke about of like having something happened.
- 41:28That's not inside of the Ring. Hey man, I I enjoyed the show
- 41:34from end to end. It was a good wrestling show,
- 41:38but they didn't give me a reason to come back.
- 41:41That's what I was just gonna say that.
- 41:42You know what it's like, I say this every single week before a
- 41:46WWE pay-per-view or even aw pay-per-view.
- 41:49I don't have to pay attention. Yeah, but I can watch it and I'm
- 41:53gonna love the wrestling, but these shows on a weekly basis,
- 41:57they don't give me a reason to watch it outside of, I Want to
- 42:00watch a good wrestling match. So man, like there was one thing
- 42:04that they really had for them that I thought was was worthy of
- 42:08speaking about there. Was sure there was roh people on
- 42:11the show, Samoa Joe in particular, which we're going to
- 42:14get to the fill of it. All, all of the CM Punk will
- 42:16come, but there was no true roh storytelling on there.
- 42:21There was no forbidden door stuff shoehorned into this show
- 42:25either, and they focused just on the Collision roster, which I
- 42:30thought It was really a really good thing a gram.
- 42:34It just again, I'll say it again.
- 42:36It just didn't give me a reason to known in on Saturday with
- 42:39any. And I don't need a cliffhanger
- 42:42every single week, like we don't need a whodunit.
- 42:44We don't need that to like bring us back like it did in the
- 42:47Attitude Era and that's not what I'm searching for, but no, there
- 42:49was nothing outside of the great wrestling that made me want to
- 42:54tune back in. So speaking of you gave me a
- 42:56good segue, speaking of good wrestling.
- 43:00With CM Punk, man. Like, I don't even know, I, it's
- 43:05not fifty-fifty. I'm here for what he has to say
- 43:08on the mic. What?
- 43:09He's got to say, in social media, what he's gonna do to set
- 43:12things up, but I have like zero interest in watching this man
- 43:16wrestle like it's it just does nothing for me so it's all he to
- 43:21eat if anything. I'm here for him possibly
- 43:24telling stories or just stirring the pot on the mic.
- 43:28Like I like him. Um, I do, I've been a fan.
- 43:32He just does nothing for me in the ring in 2023.
- 43:35So they even made a comment of their obviously managing CM
- 43:40Punk's minutes. Like they made an MBA reference
- 43:42of like they're managing his minutes here, and because it was
- 43:45a lot of the FDR guys, and you have to the best tag team
- 43:51workers in the world. Teaming up with CM Punk facing
- 43:55off against Samoa, Joe and bullet Club gold.
- 43:58Who Workers in and of themselves, man.
- 44:02Samoa Joe felt so important in this Main Event.
- 44:05Yes, I just don't think towards the end, 100%.
- 44:09He just that laissez-faire. Like I'm not going to buy into
- 44:13this shit. Like I'm just going to let you
- 44:15hurt yourself and Walk Away. Joe is it?
- 44:18This Match Made Me Love Samoa Joe all over again.
- 44:21Like I guess I forgot because he's not on our televisions and
- 44:25hasn't been in very very long time and he sure I can go.
- 44:29Tune in to roh I'm sure he's there but I don't have it and
- 44:33I'm not gonna go seek it out at this point in time.
- 44:35But when he faced off against CM Punk and time, kind of Stood
- 44:39Still and the history that was there, even if you're a fringe
- 44:43roh guy and just know the history of it, they made that
- 44:46feel so important. When those people are facing off
- 44:49in the ring and the crowd felt it.
- 44:51The camerawork felt it. The announcers felt it was just
- 44:55a really, really great job of selling how important those two
- 44:58are. I'm here for, I'm here, for for
- 45:03the possibility of Them doing something with one of these
- 45:07stories. Just give me something man.
- 45:10What I was going to say with the but is that there was no.
- 45:13All right, we're going to start a feud between seeing punkins.
- 45:16None, Samoa Joe and maybe that's not the path they want to go.
- 45:18And he's always H and he's the television title holder and
- 45:22maybe he deserves a. Maybe he's just belongs off on
- 45:24another on another screen and another show but I don't know.
- 45:29It just didn't it? Didn't it didn't do it for me.
- 45:31Yeah where's Punk? Go from here?
- 45:32Who knows? That's like a big question I
- 45:34have. So let's dive Into the, the
- 45:37promo, they did the right thing. They didn't tease it.
- 45:40They just hit the lights turned show on and they said, okay,
- 45:45here's here's cult of personality from good.
- 45:48Get get your ass out there, he comes out for his opening promo.
- 45:53He gets a hero's. Welcome in Chicago, like he
- 45:55expects to and he plays this mid tweener kind of role.
- 46:00He has a red bag, he's got his shoes around his ring, shoes
- 46:05around his neck. Like what was he trying to tease
- 46:08that he is retired. Like hey this is so weird.
- 46:12It was so strange. They announced the match before
- 46:15they announced like right. I don't I don't I don't know.
- 46:19So like who are you? Fooling man you're you're in the
- 46:22main event anyway that's a small piece of it.
- 46:26He comes out with this red bag, he does.
- 46:28The classic move that he didn't WWE the flag.
- 46:31The aew logo. That's on the microphone.
- 46:34He looks at it peels, it off throw.
- 46:35Hose it off to the side now. He's got this naked microphone
- 46:38that he's speaking into. He starts placating to the
- 46:42quote-unquote smart fans in the arena.
- 46:45There are people in the business that hate him for the same
- 46:48reasons that you love me. I'm the one genuine article in
- 46:52the business of counterfeit bucks.
- 46:53All right, here we go. We're into the, we're into the
- 46:58urn. Yeah.
- 46:58The pots are in exactly. As you said it, we're into the
- 47:01pot stirring here, and they're playing into this Chicago crowd.
- 47:06I really loved that he named drop Joe Strummer from The
- 47:09Clash. Like that was amazing to me as
- 47:12this old punk rock guy. Yeah.
- 47:14So I absolutely love that. And then the quote of the entire
- 47:18promo, and as he starts, you know, talking about apologies,
- 47:22people think that I owe them apology.
- 47:24And for those that do, I'm sorry that the only people softer than
- 47:28you are the wrestler. See you like, oh man, I loved
- 47:33loved that one. He starts talking in the Looting
- 47:36to him never losing the aw title.
- 47:39He's he never opens the red velvet bag that he's got, but
- 47:42you can all assume he alludes to it very, very directly that he
- 47:47still has the aew title in this bag.
- 47:50And maybe that's the story that they're teasing.
- 47:52Maybe it's MJ F + CM Punk is going to going to run it.
- 47:56Run it back again and you know Punk's best match was that dog
- 47:59collar match easily. I say since him his returning
- 48:02like that's where he looked the best.
- 48:06Maybe that's where they headed back to again.
- 48:07And of course, at the end he starts talking about.
- 48:09No one can fill these boots. I'll be here until yada yada
- 48:12yada, and that's how he kind of comes across, but I don't know.
- 48:17It was a great. It was a good promo.
- 48:19It wasn't great, the he took this little shots but again this
- 48:24kicked off the show. He said he had unfinished
- 48:26business. He took potshots and stirred the
- 48:28pot at the Young Bucks and the fans that don't like them, he
- 48:33played the tweener role in Chicago.
- 48:37You gotta you gotta you gotta what's the fishing?
- 48:41You know you gotta. Yeah.
- 48:43What's okay? No, I don't know.
- 48:44You gotta bury the hook. Yeah, damn it.
- 48:46Huh? Said Phelps, help me out here,
- 48:48brother. I blew this one.
- 48:51You gotta set the hook. That's what it is.
- 48:53You have to set the hook, man, you gotta pull on that Rod while
- 48:56you have it in your hand. Yeah, and you've gotta make sure
- 48:59that you're giving me something that's going to pull me back.
- 49:02I'm gonna grab me right away and it just it didn't.
- 49:05It didn't do it. Much as I loved the action, I
- 49:08love the show. Yeah.
- 49:09And to end but Mike Bell Caster on the aw wrap up this past week
- 49:14on the turnbuckle Tavern. Live feed talks about how there
- 49:17was potential for Collision to be even bigger than Dynamite.
- 49:20I just can't get anywhere near them.
- 49:24Anywhere near that, man. Now, sorry, Mike.
- 49:28It just, it comes down, I'm sorry.
- 49:31It comes down to the day of the week and I can't like we can't
- 49:34be the only ones who are out there thinking that I don't
- 49:37know, maybe because we live a life where like our significant
- 49:42others aren't into it as well and like we've got kids at the
- 49:45age, their age, I don't know, and I'm not knocking anybody
- 49:47that it is there thing like for you is by all means but I just
- 49:52don't think it's an ideal time slot to be put in the wrestling
- 49:55show. And so what the demographic is
- 49:5918 to what is it 1835 18 to 35? So if you're trying to grab this
- 50:05Saturday night wrestling fan. If you're it eighteen-year-old
- 50:10extra cooler 1920. Like let's let's go back to when
- 50:15you and I started hanging out. Yeah we're in.
- 50:17Go to the room are it's no we didn't go to the bar until 11:00
- 50:21which means that true we can we can get ready to go and and our
- 50:25friend Frank can comb his hair for six hours as he's getting
- 50:28ready and he can watch. He can watch a collision while
- 50:33he's getting ready to go out and then 1005 Five.
- 50:36Boom, get in the car, you noubar.
- 50:38Let's go to the bar, let's throw him back, but that there is zero
- 50:41chance. I'm going to watch collision and
- 50:42then pick up a girl at the bar that night.
- 50:44So I don't know, man. I don't know.
- 50:49We paged. You see CM Punk tonight with
- 50:52this bring boots around his neck?
- 50:56I don't know, we were our beer pong name was Yaga powers back
- 51:00here. Okay, work.
- 51:01First it didn't work for us. I didn't work for me.
- 51:07This was pre wives the our wives aren't going to listen anyway so
- 51:10it does. Yeah exactly.
- 51:11It's we're good but man I at the end of the day I'll say it
- 51:15again. I thoroughly enjoyed the
- 51:17wrestling. I thoroughly enjoyed that we
- 51:19have another eight to our aw show that feels like it's worth
- 51:23tuning into I'm just yeah we're going to do it on time until
- 51:27they set the hook. I got it right that time so it's
- 51:29like it's like Roxy. I will keep tabs on it.
- 51:33Yeah keep tabs on it and it'll be in my Back pocket and their
- 51:37matches. I will go back and watch, but I
- 51:39think that's where I'm at. I think this is a step above and
- 51:43XT for me, like, an XT has fallen so far down that it's
- 51:47taking Seth Rollins to, you know, really make me watch
- 51:50again. Yeah.
- 51:51Well, there have you got it background.
- 51:53There's, there's no characters that were invested in sure.
- 51:55Now. Yes, part of the problem.
- 51:57Yeah. But there's still, I think I'm
- 52:00gonna tune in more so to Collision on.
- 52:03Yes. Under groaning.
- 52:04Then I will. Yeah.
- 52:05NXT on a Wednesday, got to see if my artwork makes it on TV and
- 52:10someone's butt sore on their shirts.
- 52:12And, you know, this this week, it was how Haney,
- 52:14congratulations him with that, Stellar sea mft, our artwork
- 52:18that he did, it was on the back of the, the ring jackets.
- 52:22Which a man. They looked, they looked mint.
- 52:24His work is always awesome. I love the thick black lines
- 52:28that he uses on his outlines. It reminds me of the old like
- 52:31clerks cartoons. Yes, anybody remembers those.
- 52:34I love that style. So cheers, the how congratulated
- 52:38out freaking cool. But Nick man we you know, I made
- 52:42the joke and I will have a quick like 35 minute episode here.

- 52:47like Matt come on man maybe it was 25 but we doubled it.
- 52:52We're sitting here at eclipsing close to 60 minutes.
- 52:56So Nick take us home. I was so happy especially after
- 52:59missing that double or nothing episode to be able to talk some
- 53:02current product because there's so much fun stuff going on.
