- 3:04Speaker 3: I promise you you'll love it. But let's get on
- 3:07Speaker 3: with tonight's show and the first thing we're going to
- 3:12Speaker 3: talk about is swear Strickland what if swar Strickland becomes
- 3:18Speaker 3: the new AWEVP And there's a specific question I want
- 3:21Speaker 3: to ask Barry MK and Chris right off the bat
- 3:25Speaker 3: about this. Of course, on aw Dynamite, swear Strickland is
- 3:29Speaker 3: facing Kenny Omega for Kenny Omega's no wait, yeah, swear
- 3:36Speaker 3: Strickland is the number one contender. Kenny Omega is the
- 3:39Speaker 3: EVP at its prost titles of the number one contender
- 3:44Speaker 3: at EVP. Does anybody expect Kenny Omega to beat swear
- 3:49Speaker 3: Strickland tomorrow night? Just curious?
- 3:55Speaker 2: I think, uh possibly, I think Brody's going to help
- 3:59Speaker 2: him swerve. That's just my opinion.
- 4:02Speaker 4: I could see that. I'm honestly kind of fifty fifty
- 4:05Speaker 4: on this one. It feels like it could go either
- 4:09Speaker 4: way because you know, there's plenty of ways to whoever wins.
- 4:13Speaker 4: You know, you have Tiney Omega number one contender, he goes,
- 4:16Speaker 4: has a great match of dynasty against in a loses
- 4:20Speaker 4: and you have Swerve. Now he's gotta limb back up
- 4:24Speaker 4: that letter. He's gonna be even more dangerous if he loses.
- 4:28Speaker 3: Okay, And this was basically a yes or no question. Well,
- 4:35Speaker 3: I'm I'm sorry, man, but I had the bust. Yes, yes, okay.
- 4:40Speaker 1: What was the question again?
- 4:42Speaker 3: I don't even remember.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Chris went like you know, Chris went off pretty deep.
- 4:47Speaker 4: It was the question was do we think to me wins?
- 4:52Speaker 4: And honestly I don't know.
- 4:55Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 4:55Speaker 4: I can't say to yes or no because I see
- 4:58Speaker 4: both options as.
- 5:01Speaker 1: So, okay, Kelson to answer the question. So the question
- 5:04Speaker 1: was does anybody see Kenny Omega winning? Right?
- 5:07Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 5:08Speaker 3: Is do you think Kenny Omega is going to win
- 5:10Speaker 3: this match?
- 5:11Speaker 1: I man, like I on.
- 5:15Speaker 3: The spot, would you say who has the edge here?
- 5:19Speaker 1: I think it's Kenny and we're not doing qualifiers, so
- 5:25Speaker 1: I'm just answering yes or no. Yes, I think Kenny.
- 5:28Speaker 1: I think Kenny wins. Okay, I'll tell you why. Go ahead,
- 5:31Speaker 1: tell me why, and then I'll give you a yes
- 5:33Speaker 1: or no answer. Yeah, but you can't yes. You got
- 5:37Speaker 1: to say yes or no. Now, Kelson, you said it
- 5:38Speaker 1: was yes or no, you got to answer.
- 5:40Speaker 3: Okay. Look, the question is does Kenny Omega? Does Kenny
- 5:44Speaker 3: Omega have any chance of beating swear Strickland. My answer
- 5:48Speaker 3: is no, zero, chair. I have absolute confidence that's where
- 5:53Speaker 3: Strickland is going to walk out with Kelson.
- 5:55Speaker 1: I want to hear you booking it because I'll explain
- 5:58Speaker 1: why I can. I think Kenny could win, but I
- 6:03Speaker 1: want to hear your approach because it can change my mind.
- 6:05Speaker 3: Here's my approach, Barry, so listen carefully because your mind
- 6:09Speaker 3: is going to get blown. Okay, Okay, First of all,
- 6:13Speaker 3: it to me, it makes no sense to make this
- 6:16Speaker 3: stipulation if something doesn't change. If Kenny wins this match,
- 6:21Speaker 3: nothing changes. I mean, yeah, he becomes the number one contender.
- 6:27Speaker 3: But even Swerve said last week it was news to
- 6:31Speaker 3: him that he was new number one contender. He said
- 6:33Speaker 3: that on air. Okay, but my big thing is is
- 6:37Speaker 3: that if Swerve were to lose this match again, nothing changes.
- 6:42Speaker 3: So it doesn't make any sense. Now why do I
- 6:46Speaker 3: think that it makes sense for Swerve to win? Because
- 6:50Speaker 3: with him as an EVP, it opens up possibilities. And
- 6:54Speaker 3: there's two possibilities I'm going to talk about. One is
- 6:57Speaker 3: for the Mogul Embassy or the Mongol Embassy, is Caleb
- 7:02Speaker 3: would say, we want. It opens up a storyline that
- 7:09Speaker 3: can be built upon. As far as the embassy goes,
- 7:12Speaker 3: I'm just gonna call it the embassy. As far as
- 7:15Speaker 3: the embassy goes, bringing people into the embassy, not necessarily
- 7:19Speaker 3: the people that were already in the embassy before, but
- 7:23Speaker 3: building up a faction. The second thing is is that
- 7:27Speaker 3: we all know that Hangman Adam Page is taking a break. Basically,
- 7:33Speaker 3: he's been written off for the indetermined amount of time.
- 7:39Speaker 3: So this thrust Swerve, who is able to wrestle on
- 7:42Speaker 3: a weekly basis, which Kenny Omega cannot do. Okay, that's
- 7:48Speaker 3: been widely advertised. But Swerve can now come in and
- 7:53Speaker 3: he can actually wrestle. Okay. So now you've got Swerve wrestling,
- 7:59Speaker 3: and you have Swerve with the Embassy behind them. But
- 8:02Speaker 3: there's a third thing. When Hangman Adam Page comes back,
- 8:06Speaker 3: what do you do with Hangman Adam Page. In my mind,
- 8:09Speaker 3: the stipulation that Hangman Adam Page can no longer challenge
- 8:13Speaker 3: for the AW World Championship can be changed, edited, thrown
- 8:23Speaker 3: out the window. Buy an EVP. Swerve would be the
- 8:27Speaker 3: EVP to hey, I will let you challenge for my
- 8:33Speaker 3: because I do believe swer will be the world champion.
- 8:36Speaker 3: I will let you challenge for my AW World Championship
- 8:41Speaker 3: if you watch my back for the next month, et cetera.
- 8:46Speaker 3: Et cetera. So and I think it's going to be
- 8:50Speaker 3: Swerve and Osprey it all In, and I think that's
- 8:53Speaker 3: what's gonna happen.
- 8:54Speaker 1: Yeah, that's some that's some good logic there. So like
- 8:59Speaker 1: I'm trying to book that from all In and last
- 9:01Speaker 1: week I thought the match is Ospray versus Omega for
- 9:06Speaker 1: the belt at all In. You're not going to get
- 9:09Speaker 1: many chances to do that. If you're gonna if you're
- 9:12Speaker 1: gonna crown Will with his first title, you're gonna do
- 9:16Speaker 1: it at Wembley. I would do it with the biggest
- 9:20Speaker 1: star you could with is Omega. But to your point,
- 9:24Speaker 1: like booking backwards, I can't understand how Kenny losing here
- 9:32Speaker 1: gets him the belt, you know, because he's gonna need
- 9:35Speaker 1: he's going to need to get the belt. So I
- 9:37Speaker 1: figure maybe he wins it a double or nothing and
- 9:39Speaker 1: then carries that into all In and then Will wins
- 9:42Speaker 1: it there. But to your point, Kelson, like, if that's
- 9:45Speaker 1: not the way they go, I don't. I don't know
- 9:48Speaker 1: if the matches were versus Will, do you think that's
- 9:51Speaker 1: big enough at all In? Because That's what I'm getting
- 9:53Speaker 1: hung up. I don't know if that's big enough.
- 9:55Speaker 3: Do you do I actually do believe it.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Are you going to get a chance to do versus
- 10:00Speaker 1: well again?
- 10:01Speaker 3: Though?
- 10:01Speaker 1: Like, that's that's what I'm thinking.
- 10:03Speaker 3: I don't think that Kenny versus Will is as big
- 10:06Speaker 3: as Swerve versus Will right now? Three years ago? Absolutely
- 10:10Speaker 3: it was. Here's my point. Here's here's the thing. And
- 10:13Speaker 3: I want to hear other people's opinion on Chris, but
- 10:16Speaker 3: here's my point. Okay, do you trust Kenny Omega to
- 10:21Speaker 3: be wrestling come all in five months away from now?
- 10:28Speaker 3: There's all kinds of stuff. I mean, he's he's obviously
- 10:31Speaker 3: taking time off a lot lately, he's pacing himself. Do
- 10:36Speaker 3: you want your world champion to be a part timer?
- 10:39Speaker 3: That may work in w w EE, but it doesn't
- 10:42Speaker 3: work at a do.
- 10:42Speaker 1: What's the time frame though? Like, like to your point,
- 10:45Speaker 1: oh no, but from May to all in it's not.
- 10:48Speaker 3: A huge that's I guess you're right.
- 10:52Speaker 1: I guess you're right.
- 10:53Speaker 3: That's so, if Kenny were to win the championships, say
- 10:56Speaker 3: at at at Dynasty or double or nothing. If it
- 11:03Speaker 3: is double or nothing, you still have three months.
- 11:05Speaker 1: So where where does Swerve take take take the bell
- 11:08Speaker 1: from MJF, Like, how do you book that? How do
- 11:12Speaker 1: you get the bet off?
- 11:12Speaker 3: In j You could do it. You can do it
- 11:15Speaker 3: at a dynasty, but I would prefer to see it
- 11:17Speaker 3: at double or nothing.
- 11:18Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think it makes sense a dynasty. But
- 11:21Speaker 1: you do heal heel or does MJF turned face Like,
- 11:23Speaker 1: I don't know if like those aren't just like tween
- 11:26Speaker 1: er versus heel, Like that's heel heel. So how do
- 11:29Speaker 1: you how do you book that?
- 11:31Speaker 3: Well? You can go ahead, Chris. I want to hear
- 11:34Speaker 3: from you, guys, because uh, I'll chime in, Wait, you
- 11:39Speaker 3: got what?
- 11:40Speaker 1: What's it here?
- 11:42Speaker 2: I'm thinking that deep down m JF likes love a
- 11:47Speaker 2: W and wants to keep it his and he and
- 11:51Speaker 2: he feels that he's saving a W from the big
- 11:54Speaker 2: bad Swerve. I think that's where he's going to try
- 11:58Speaker 2: to use Hangman to stop Swerve from winning or something
- 12:06Speaker 2: of the like. I I just really feel like you
- 12:10Speaker 2: can have two big back heels and that's fine, that's
- 12:12Speaker 2: been done before. You don't have to have a baby face,
- 12:15Speaker 2: but it's prefable, but you don't.
- 12:16Speaker 1: Have to baby face. Baby face works better than heal heel, Chris.
- 12:20Speaker 3: What how do you how do you get there for me?
- 12:24Speaker 3: But Chris, before you go, I want to just break
- 12:26Speaker 3: in and say, uh that Conrad in the chat did
- 12:30Speaker 3: say what better way for Swerve to get back at him,
- 12:33Speaker 3: meaning hangman than making him go back on his word? Uh?
- 12:37Speaker 3: And then he did for the one and say went
- 12:39Speaker 3: on to say that I saw Kenny versus will match
- 12:42Speaker 3: at Toronto fantastic, one of the best matches I've ever seen.
- 12:46Speaker 3: Sorry about that, Chris, go ahead, see.
- 12:49Speaker 4: I think you're onto something with the logo embassy, but
- 12:53Speaker 4: I Swerve wouldn't need them. If he's an e VP,
- 12:58Speaker 4: he becomes an e v P, he can do what
- 13:00Speaker 4: he wants. He can say if anyone attacks him at
- 13:04Speaker 4: any point, they're fined five hundred thousand dollars.
- 13:08Speaker 3: You know.
- 13:09Speaker 4: He can become the very thing he fought against it
- 13:13Speaker 4: all in but if he loses the king, if he
- 13:17Speaker 4: doesn't gain that power, then he has to bring in
- 13:22Speaker 4: that help that he doesn't really want to bring in
- 13:26Speaker 4: because he wants to do it all on his own,
- 13:28Speaker 4: because he's an ego maniafel asshole. So him losing is
- 13:33Speaker 4: the reason the mobile embassy comes back to me.
- 13:37Speaker 1: Hey, Kelson, yeah. Like the other thing. The reason like,
- 13:41Speaker 1: I'm struggling when they made the announcement last week. I've
- 13:44Speaker 1: just been trying to figure this out and book this
- 13:46Speaker 1: in my head, and I'm just struggling because they just
- 13:49Speaker 1: did an evil EVP angle with the Bucks for months, right,
- 13:54Speaker 1: So did they run that back?
- 13:56Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 13:57Speaker 1: I know, but did we run the evil EVP?
- 14:00Speaker 3: Well, the Bucks are no longer EVPs correct, they've never
- 14:04Speaker 3: read Okay, but what if we do go ahead? What
- 14:07Speaker 3: if we do this since the Bucks are now U
- 14:12Speaker 3: face and Kenny Omega knows that he's not going to
- 14:17Speaker 3: be a one active wrestler. What if Kenny Omega signs
- 14:21Speaker 3: over before this matches is done? Of course unannounced, but
- 14:25Speaker 3: it comes out later that he signed off for to
- 14:32Speaker 3: give the Bucks back their EVP status, not taking away
- 14:37Speaker 3: his EVP status, but he gives the Bucks his EVP
- 14:41Speaker 3: their EVP status backs. We're wins and then you have
- 14:44Speaker 3: good cop bat CP.
- 14:46Speaker 1: Yeah. I think I think Swerve probably wins Kelson just
- 14:51Speaker 1: because the storytelling opportunities are really broad with absolutely, But
- 14:56Speaker 1: I just like, again, I keep coming back. I'm like,
- 14:58Speaker 1: we just saw the evil EVP storyline. Are we gonna
- 15:01Speaker 1: just you know, do a different version of that. That's
- 15:03Speaker 1: why I'm like hesitating because I just I think the match,
- 15:07Speaker 1: the biggest match is Kenny versus Well at all in,
- 15:10Speaker 1: and I don't see how they get there if Swerve gets.
- 15:13Speaker 3: In the middle. See, I think that's where we're different again.
- 15:17Speaker 3: I don't think the match is Kenny.
- 15:19Speaker 1: There's no wrong answer. I don't think yeah yeah.
- 15:25Speaker 4: Kenny winning would put him in Swarve at one and one,
- 15:29Speaker 4: And I mean give you a pretty easy blow off
- 15:33Speaker 4: match for Dynasty. Maybe put more on the line with that.
- 15:38Speaker 2: I don't want to see it go any farther, but
- 15:41Speaker 2: I want to remind you guys that it was Will
- 15:43Speaker 2: and Swerve who got the bucks out. So I think
- 15:46Speaker 2: that's going to be a good match to have it
- 15:48Speaker 2: all in or whatever, because we'll be like, why do
- 15:52Speaker 2: we do this for you just to grab it and
- 15:54Speaker 2: do the exact same thing that they were doing.
- 15:58Speaker 3: Well, if if Swerve does reform the Embassy, the Elite
- 16:02Speaker 3: are going to be the counter measure to them. I
- 16:05Speaker 3: also want to say that EPW show Conrad in the
- 16:08Speaker 3: chats that I'm also enjoying the uncertainty being discussed. This
- 16:12Speaker 3: is fun and that's what this is about. This is
- 16:15Speaker 3: a really good what if kind of scenario. That's fun
- 16:19Speaker 3: to talk because there's so many ways that this could
- 16:22Speaker 3: be booked. Yeah, and there's no wrong way, and it's
- 16:26Speaker 3: all personal preference. I'm sure whatever happens, somebody's gonna love it,
- 16:30Speaker 3: and somebody's gonna this be disappointing it.
- 16:33Speaker 1: So Kelson, like one of the the approaches I have
- 16:37Speaker 1: to hang or getting back in the title sequence is
- 16:39Speaker 1: MGF has to give it to him, Like that's how
- 16:42Speaker 1: he has to get it back for this to work. Otherwise,
- 16:45Speaker 1: the stipulations, you know, garbage. So like those two Hangar
- 16:48Speaker 1: and MGFF are bonded. So if Swerve wins here and
- 16:52Speaker 1: does become EVP clears the path for him to get
- 16:55Speaker 1: a title shot against m JF. Is that where Hangman
- 16:59Speaker 1: comes back in and ends up preventing Swerve, you know,
- 17:05Speaker 1: to get some leverage for them. JF.
- 17:07Speaker 3: That's really again, that's a really.
- 17:09Speaker 1: Good You got that well, because like my whole thing
- 17:13Speaker 1: was like I I thought, well, all right, MJF at
- 17:15Speaker 1: some point has to face Swerve for the title. I
- 17:19Speaker 1: thought it would be a tag match or something, but
- 17:21Speaker 1: like he needs help and he goes to the only
- 17:24Speaker 1: guy who knows who's you know, shown he can beat Swerve,
- 17:28Speaker 1: and that's Hanger, and that's where hangar and then Hanger
- 17:31Speaker 1: has some leverage to get that stipulation remove. But again,
- 17:34Speaker 1: I know how they booked to get there with this man.
- 17:36Speaker 3: It's fast, it really is. It's got a lot of options.
- 17:39Speaker 3: But again, what you just said about the Swerve and
- 17:42Speaker 3: MJF thing, if Kenny were to win this match, I
- 17:46Speaker 3: don't sorry, I just don't think that works because remember
- 17:50Speaker 3: just before the match, MJF and and UH and Hangman
- 17:56Speaker 3: said we're so much alike where Kenny and MGF are nothing,
- 18:02Speaker 3: you know, So it's it's that simple. Really, Anybody else
- 18:06Speaker 3: with any further opinions on this, because this was an
- 18:09Speaker 3: interesting little UH conversation.
- 18:12Speaker 4: I'll let say, I'm excited to see what happened, but
- 18:15Speaker 4: I have my preferences, you know, what I would like
- 18:19Speaker 4: to see. But there's so many interesting ways to go
- 18:22Speaker 4: with this, like just enjoy the ride.
- 18:27Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm look, there's really no long wrong choice unless
- 18:32Speaker 3: the booking fails. But Tony Kahn has been hitting on
- 18:37Speaker 3: mostly all the cylinders and I trust that he will
- 18:43Speaker 3: pull it off.
- 18:45Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, he's done good. I don't know what
- 18:48Speaker 2: it was about last week it fell off a little bit,
- 18:50Speaker 2: but hopefully tomorrow night bounces back.
- 18:53Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be good.
- 18:54Speaker 3: Tomorrow I think it will. Well, let's I got another
- 18:57Speaker 3: chat message. Uh no, I didn't. Okay, I thought I did,
- 19:02Speaker 3: but we didn't. So let's move on to our next topic,
- 19:06Speaker 3: which well, this one has been really really really really
- 19:13Speaker 3: talked about a lot in the community, and that is
- 19:17Speaker 3: who attacked Tony Storm. I want to say something right
- 19:22Speaker 3: now before we get into this. There's been a lot
- 19:25Speaker 3: of speculation about Tony Storm's injury, and I use the
- 19:29Speaker 3: word injury lightly. She was at a event in New
- 19:36Speaker 3: York City over the weekend, showing no signs of injury,
- 19:40Speaker 3: according to PW inside her elite engaging with the fans.
- 19:49Speaker 3: A lot of people have been speculating that either she's
- 19:53Speaker 3: taking some time off, or that she is with child, whatever,
- 20:00Speaker 3: or that may be. I personally don't feel that that's
- 20:03Speaker 3: any of our businesses speculate about that. I really don't.
- 20:07Speaker 3: But what we can speculate about is the storyline here
- 20:12Speaker 3: is who attacked Tony Storm, and if Tony Storm is
- 20:17Speaker 3: definitely going to be out until at least the end
- 20:21Speaker 3: of twenty twenty six, is was reported, which maybe even
- 20:25Speaker 3: beyond that. It doesn't mean that should be back on
- 20:28Speaker 3: January first, twenty twenty seven. What do we do with
- 20:34Speaker 3: Tony Storm's story? Does Mina Shirakawa step in? Does somebody
- 20:40Speaker 3: else step in? Who attacked Tony Storm? What makes the
- 20:44Speaker 3: most sense to you? And before we EPW show said,
- 20:53Speaker 3: I need I need this to turn into a weekly
- 20:56Speaker 3: episode of Clue. And to be honest with you, Conrad,
- 21:00Speaker 3: I almost put the clue logo that's the Tony Storm's
- 21:04Speaker 3: face there like she was looking at the clue logo?
- 21:07Speaker 3: All right, guys who attacked Tony Storm? With the lead.
- 21:17Speaker 1: Going with Colonel Mustard? He said, we could people, So
- 21:26Speaker 1: do we think this would be a debut that would
- 21:29Speaker 1: like this sounds like a pretty big thing.
- 21:32Speaker 2: But it needs to be somebody big not But let
- 21:35Speaker 2: me ask you this, Let me ask you a specific question.
- 21:37Speaker 3: Could it have been Mina shear Cow?
- 21:40Speaker 4: No, it makes sense, but you all need to shut
- 21:43Speaker 4: your mouth. Okay, I will not here with slander.
- 21:48Speaker 3: That's not really Sanders. She's taking the bull by the horn,
- 21:52Speaker 3: so to speak.
- 21:52Speaker 1: So I don't know if we're not gonna see Tony
- 21:55Speaker 1: on TV again. So interesting verbiage I picked up on,
- 21:59Speaker 1: you know, coming back to if she is with child, congratulations.
- 22:02Speaker 1: I'm very happy for the couple. Fantastic, but not cleared
- 22:09Speaker 1: for a wrestling capacity. So knowing Tony from what I
- 22:14Speaker 1: understand or kind of been able to piece together, it's
- 22:17Speaker 1: like the story this, this is something I think they
- 22:19Speaker 1: were going to do anyways. I think they just had
- 22:21Speaker 1: to move it up a week and plug in Mina
- 22:24Speaker 1: for for Tony in that match so I would not
- 22:26Speaker 1: be shocked. Do see Tony on camera? Bet, you know,
- 22:33Speaker 1: for vignettes as Mina tries to track down the real
- 22:36Speaker 1: killer right for lack of better term, Go ahead, Chris,
- 22:39Speaker 1: you're going to chime into the direction.
- 22:40Speaker 4: I saw said the attack angle was planned, but it
- 22:46Speaker 4: was initially planned for after her match with Marina Ya.
- 22:51Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's what it felt, very much like they
- 22:55Speaker 1: just plugged in Mina for that and and just started
- 22:57Speaker 1: it a little.
- 22:58Speaker 3: Well, do you think that this whole thing is a work.
- 23:05Speaker 1: Whole thing, like the story.
- 23:07Speaker 3: The whole storyline Tony, I mean the whole thing about
- 23:11Speaker 3: Remember Tony Storm is the same person that was was
- 23:16Speaker 3: pretended to be an amnesiac.
- 23:19Speaker 1: No, No, I think she's I think I think she's
- 23:22Speaker 1: going to have a baby and she's gonna be out
- 23:24Speaker 1: for a while and things are just a little head
- 23:25Speaker 1: of schedule. So like, I think this has been planned
- 23:28Speaker 1: as a story for whenever that happens, and it just
- 23:33Speaker 1: it got to the date a little faster than they thought.
- 23:35Speaker 3: So what would you agree that it's a possibility.
- 23:39Speaker 1: Sure, sure it could be a big swerve. I don't
- 23:42Speaker 1: think it is, but yeah, it'd be great. Yeah, it's Yeah,
- 23:50Speaker 1: that's what I bring to the table personally.
- 23:53Speaker 4: I'm hoping that's the reason, you know they had to
- 23:55Speaker 4: step it up and change the plans is you know,
- 23:58Speaker 4: because she is with child. Congratulations if it is, you know,
- 24:04Speaker 4: it's a great thing for them. And she can still
- 24:07Speaker 4: do a little bit while you know, being pregnant and everything,
- 24:12Speaker 4: Like she can still do segments whose hospital. You know,
- 24:17Speaker 4: I don't think anyone would say that Tony Storm is
- 24:20Speaker 4: bad in the ring, but her strength is on the mike,
- 24:25Speaker 4: working the crowd. You know, those segments has been yet
- 24:29Speaker 4: like she is one of the people in aw that
- 24:34Speaker 4: does that so freaking well. To the point she doesn't
- 24:38Speaker 4: have to wrestle as much and can still be very
- 24:41Speaker 4: entertaining and on screen and work this whole you know
- 24:46Speaker 4: who've done it story wise.
- 24:48Speaker 3: Well, let me ask you this. I asked about Mina
- 24:51Speaker 3: Shiri Kawa. Do you think it's possible that it was
- 24:56Speaker 3: doctor Britt Baker D M D.
- 25:00Speaker 1: You know Kelson until you mentioned that, No, I had not.
- 25:04Speaker 3: I had.
- 25:06Speaker 1: I have like totally forgotten about Brett. That'd be a
- 25:09Speaker 1: great way to bring her back.
- 25:10Speaker 4: It really would, and it would make sense. You know,
- 25:13Speaker 4: Britt Baker was the aw women's division at the start.
- 25:19Speaker 4: When Tony Storm came in, she lost that. So she's
- 25:23Speaker 4: been away for so long, she's been doing she's been
- 25:27Speaker 4: so angry. Now she's going back and she's like, I'm
- 25:30Speaker 4: going to take out the big dog. I'm gonna I'm
- 25:33Speaker 4: gonna regain my place because at this point, you know,
- 25:37Speaker 4: the women's champion isn't the face of the division.
- 25:41Speaker 1: The motivation works, Yeah, yeah, I think it probably. I
- 25:46Speaker 1: think it's probably gonna up be in Mercedes. I think
- 25:50Speaker 1: this runs for a few weeks and then I think.
- 25:53Speaker 3: About the thing about Mercedes, though, is it's you know,
- 25:57Speaker 3: it would have to be a super k fabe in
- 26:00Speaker 3: you know work because she wasn't even in the country
- 26:03Speaker 3: when Tony Storm at oh good point.
- 26:05Speaker 1: And you know what, aw aw doesn't like handwave that
- 26:09Speaker 1: stuff away.
- 26:09Speaker 4: So yeah, yeah, Mercedes would do it in front of everyone.
- 26:14Speaker 4: If she was going to attack Tony Storm, She's going
- 26:17Speaker 4: to attack it right in the middle of the ring
- 26:18Speaker 4: where she gets the most spot. Going to do it
- 26:21Speaker 4: in the back behind the scenes.
- 26:23Speaker 1: Mercedes would do whatever is required for the storyline.
- 26:26Speaker 3: Well remember, well, remember remember to.
- 26:30Speaker 1: Remember the picture.
- 26:31Speaker 3: But remember the picture Tony Storm laying on the floor
- 26:36Speaker 3: because there were a lot of easter Easter eggs around
- 26:39Speaker 3: and one of them was Mercedes Monet's. And there was
- 26:42Speaker 3: a kendo stick which alludes to gitar Oshidah. There was
- 26:47Speaker 3: a mallet that had Megan Bain's name on it, but
- 26:49Speaker 3: that was not Megan Bain's mallet. It was Penelopefore it's uh.
- 26:54Speaker 3: There were a bunch of other things in there. There
- 26:56Speaker 3: was the strap from Tackla.
- 26:58Speaker 1: So who the tattoo? She had a tattoo crossed out.
- 27:01Speaker 1: She has two tattoos on her wrist, right, yeah, what
- 27:05Speaker 1: got like the bird one that she has with friendship
- 27:09Speaker 1: with the comedy one. Yeah, no, no, no, there's like
- 27:13Speaker 1: a bird. She has a bird with Diana.
- 27:17Speaker 3: I thought that was I thought that was on her
- 27:19Speaker 3: cat for on her ship. That is okay, okay, that
- 27:23Speaker 3: one was Diana Parrazzo. But the one on her wrist
- 27:27Speaker 3: that was crossed out, I'm not really sure what that was.
- 27:33Speaker 4: It was. I think it's the comedy and drama mass
- 27:38Speaker 4: and I think it was comedy that was crossed out.
- 27:41Speaker 1: Mm hmm okay, so well, I I have big hopes
- 27:46Speaker 1: for the sayingle.
- 27:50Speaker 4: Yeah, go ahead, Chris crossed out Harley Hambron no more jokes.
- 27:57Speaker 4: She's gone freaking nuts and she's gonna just.
- 28:01Speaker 3: She lost the tench team title, and Willow doesn't seem
- 28:04Speaker 3: too upset about it. Harley has every right to be
- 28:08Speaker 3: upset about it, but I don't know that is.
- 28:13Speaker 1: Can be really fun. I think it's gonna be really fun.
- 28:16Speaker 2: Well, look, I think we need a return of We're
- 28:18Speaker 2: not a return, but I think we need a detective
- 28:21Speaker 2: Tony Storm come out and.
- 28:24Speaker 1: San diego.
- 28:26Speaker 4: Back Againette. She could absolutely do that.
- 28:34Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:34Speaker 1: I want to see vignettes where like Mina is visiting
- 28:37Speaker 1: Tony in the hospital, and like Tony is just like
- 28:39Speaker 1: in the bed. And then there's like a scene where
- 28:42Speaker 1: like Mina's pushing Tony in the wheelchair along the water
- 28:45Speaker 1: because like like if if if Tony is you know,
- 28:48Speaker 1: with child, she can you know you can cover that
- 28:50Speaker 1: with a blanket and play off that. I'd love to
- 28:53Speaker 1: send him really like go deep and uh and do
- 28:56Speaker 1: some fun vignettes.
- 28:58Speaker 3: Yeah, but again, if she is a child, Aw's you
- 29:01Speaker 3: said previously is not want to push reality aside for
- 29:04Speaker 3: the sake of story. So she is a child, I
- 29:08Speaker 3: don't think Tony Khan is gonna like cover with a
- 29:10Speaker 3: blanket or hide her behind a desk or something.
- 29:13Speaker 1: Why wouldn't they I mean it's Tony like they certainly could.
- 29:17Speaker 3: They could, but I just don't see Tony Khan doing it.
- 29:20Speaker 4: I really do that kind of make people wonder.
- 29:26Speaker 1: Well, I think you're right, tell's probably not, but not
- 29:29Speaker 1: when she starts showing. But I wouldn't be shocked to
- 29:32Speaker 1: see her in a hospital bed for some vignettes and
- 29:34Speaker 1: stuff early on.
- 29:35Speaker 3: Now, as far as debuts go, yeah, EPW shows saying
- 29:41Speaker 3: Luther private Investigator. But as far as debuts go, I
- 29:44Speaker 3: mean I've seen Dakota Kai's name brought up, but that
- 29:50Speaker 3: doesn't make sense when you look at the Easter eggs
- 29:55Speaker 3: that were left around or was was there anything that
- 29:57Speaker 3: alludse to to Dakota Kai, you know, I mean there's
- 30:04Speaker 3: different things. I mean, we've talked, we talked a little
- 30:07Speaker 3: bit last week about maybe a returning Camille coming back.
- 30:12Speaker 3: That would be maybe a good way to bring her
- 30:15Speaker 3: back into aw But it doesn't make sense to me
- 30:19Speaker 3: because she's been gone for so long. As as Karsheeda. Look,
- 30:26Speaker 3: it could be Nila Rose, it could be Rijo for
- 30:29Speaker 3: all we know, but they've just not been visible. I
- 30:34Speaker 3: think it's got to be somebody that is either completely unexpected,
- 30:38Speaker 3: like a debut, or somebody that's been visible that is
- 30:42Speaker 3: tired of being pushed aside, whether it's being pushed aside
- 30:46Speaker 3: by Tony Storm or being pushed aside by someone elsewhere.
- 30:52Speaker 3: You know, you can't discount Britt Baker. You can't even
- 30:55Speaker 3: discount somebody like Anna j or something to that fact.
- 31:01Speaker 1: I can discount Anna Jay. She's not a big enough
- 31:03Speaker 1: name for this to be.
- 31:06Speaker 3: But this is how you make a big name out
- 31:08Speaker 3: of somebody. You know, this could I'm just saying, this
- 31:10Speaker 3: is a platform you never know how Tony Kahan thinks.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Or Ann and I didn't mean it that way.
- 31:20Speaker 3: What Statlander stat I don't think it's gonna be stat Lander,
- 31:25Speaker 3: because look, stat Lander just lost to a w World
- 31:28Speaker 3: Championship title match twice. Yeah, I think Statlander, for all
- 31:33Speaker 3: intent purposes is I don't want. I hate using the
- 31:37Speaker 3: word buried, but I think uh, knocked down a couple
- 31:41Speaker 3: of notches is fair to say. I don't know, would
- 31:45Speaker 3: you guys feel like that.
- 31:46Speaker 4: Kind of easy deal? You could say, Okay, they ran
- 31:50Speaker 4: into each other backstage. Tony Storm, you know, tried to
- 31:54Speaker 4: console her about losing the title, and that's just like
- 31:59Speaker 4: something in Spats mapped in that moment, and she passed
- 32:03Speaker 4: her over the head, like beat her down and then
- 32:07Speaker 4: realize and ran all.
- 32:11Speaker 1: That.
- 32:11Speaker 4: I just think that that's a way you could go
- 32:16Speaker 4: with it if they wanted it to be.
- 32:18Speaker 1: I think kind of Kelson's on the right vibe. It's
- 32:20Speaker 1: gonna be somebody coming back. I don't think it's even
- 32:23Speaker 1: it even needs to be a debut. It'll be connected
- 32:26Speaker 1: to something somebody did at some point, but it'll be
- 32:28Speaker 1: somebody coming back. Maybe it's Chida, maybe it's Mercedes but yeah,
- 32:33Speaker 1: I don't think it'll be I think this will be
- 32:36Speaker 1: a pretty straightforward story when it's done. They're not going
- 32:38Speaker 1: to do anything super crazy as far as who it is,
- 32:41Speaker 1: but it's gonna be a lot of fun to get there.
- 32:42Speaker 3: I think whatever happens, it's going to make perfect sense
- 32:46Speaker 3: because somebody like Camille it just doesn't make sense.
- 32:50Speaker 1: Right, there's no more the motivation will be. It'll make
- 32:52Speaker 1: a lot of sense when it's sort of right.
- 32:54Speaker 3: And if it's somebody like say Dakota Kai, that really
- 32:58Speaker 3: doesn't make a lot of sense to aid W fans,
- 33:02Speaker 3: But if it's handled right, they could build it into
- 33:05Speaker 3: something that makes sense. So you never know.
- 33:07Speaker 4: I would honestly pick put leading candidates Britt Baker, someone
- 33:11Speaker 4: hired by Mercedes, and then left field pick you know,
- 33:17Speaker 4: it's Bailey, Like what the.
- 33:21Speaker 3: Bailey's not available until January first, twenty twenty seven.
- 33:27Speaker 4: So I don't think they're.
- 33:28Speaker 3: Gonna if this was if this was October November, i'd
- 33:31Speaker 3: say yes, you know, but hey, for all we know,
- 33:33Speaker 3: it could be Mariah May.
- 33:34Speaker 1: It was John Moxley. That's what we're going.
- 33:36Speaker 3: To find out.
- 33:37Speaker 2: Yeah Moxley anyway, Okay, I'm ready for the next.
- 33:46Speaker 3: Let's let's move on, because yeah, this is We could
- 33:49Speaker 3: talk about this forever and not get anywhere. The next
- 33:52Speaker 3: topic is, uh, kind of a weird topic to me.
- 33:58Speaker 3: I really don't have a whole heck of a lot
- 33:59Speaker 3: to say about it. But let's look at, uh, what's
- 34:02Speaker 3: being done with Darby Allen?
- 34:04Speaker 4: Uh?
- 34:04Speaker 3: Is Darby Allen in the aw title hunt? And if so,
- 34:08Speaker 3: it doesn't necessarily have to be the world title hunt.
- 34:10Speaker 3: It could be the T and T title, it could
- 34:12Speaker 3: be the Continental title, it could be the international title.
- 34:15Speaker 3: But is he in a title hunt? Because he seems
- 34:19Speaker 3: more like a guy to me as of late that
- 34:23Speaker 3: is making his story completely about non title matches and feuds.
- 34:31Speaker 3: What do you guys think?
- 34:32Speaker 4: I think he's one of those guys who's kind of
- 34:35Speaker 4: always in every title picture because the fans love him,
- 34:42Speaker 4: and you can really, you know, plug and play in
- 34:45Speaker 4: any title division that you're you don't really have a
- 34:48Speaker 4: clear challenger, you can just be like, Okay, Darby Allen,
- 34:53Speaker 4: well decide later if he's gonna win or not.
- 34:58Speaker 2: On the hub on a reddit, and I was surprised
- 35:03Speaker 2: to see that a lot of people think he's going
- 35:05Speaker 2: to be a champion one day. I just don't see
- 35:09Speaker 2: him as that. I think he could do like a
- 35:10Speaker 2: Ray mysterio thing and do a little bit of one,
- 35:13Speaker 2: But to me, he's not there. And the whole MJF
- 35:17Speaker 2: being scared of him thing and putting a bounty on
- 35:20Speaker 2: him and stuff, I just I just don't get from
- 35:23Speaker 2: my perspective, because yes, he's dangerous, but MJF has beat
- 35:27Speaker 2: him so many times, I just don't understand the need
- 35:31Speaker 2: to bring him up to making him an actual threat.
- 35:34Speaker 3: Yeah, as I said earlier, Darby Allen does his best
- 35:37Speaker 3: work in a non title capacity. He's good at building
- 35:40Speaker 3: non title feuds, which are every bit of important. His
- 35:44Speaker 3: title matches. A good feud without a title attached to
- 35:47Speaker 3: it is paramount to really good TV to me, because
- 35:51Speaker 3: you can have a ladle on everything.
- 35:53Speaker 1: I think Darby is like the thorn in the side
- 35:57Speaker 1: of the heels, like he's been really good is the
- 36:01Speaker 1: heart of aw so like when Max was doing his stuff,
- 36:06Speaker 1: he was always a thorn in his side. He's always
- 36:08Speaker 1: a thorn in the side of who the big heels
- 36:10Speaker 1: are right, So kind of to your point, Kelsey, he
- 36:12Speaker 1: doesn't really need a belt. I just have a hard time.
- 36:16Speaker 1: I have a really, really hard time buying him as
- 36:19Speaker 1: a heavyweight champ, the same way I had a hard
- 36:22Speaker 1: time with Mysterio, the same way I had a hard
- 36:24Speaker 1: time with Jeff Hardy back.
- 36:26Speaker 3: In the day.
- 36:26Speaker 1: I just some of it's his size, some of it's
- 36:30Speaker 1: his character. And as much as I want to suspend
- 36:33Speaker 1: this belief and just you know, it's a TV show
- 36:35Speaker 1: and it's fictional, and I just want to, but I
- 36:37Speaker 1: just I can't. I can't see him like I can't
- 36:42Speaker 1: see him as a champ, you know what I mean.
- 36:44Speaker 1: So I don't know, I don't know what they do
- 36:46Speaker 1: to make me believe it, but I know I'm not
- 36:48Speaker 1: the only person who struggles with that either.
- 36:50Speaker 3: So yeah, I think we can all agree that Darby
- 36:53Speaker 3: Ellen is fantastic. You know. It's not like he doesn't
- 36:57Speaker 3: deserve his flowers. It's not like disrespecting him saying that
- 37:02Speaker 3: he shouldn't be a champion. And we don't see him
- 37:04Speaker 3: as a champion. We see him he's a champion for
- 37:08Speaker 3: the everyday wrestling fan because he does he's Darby. Yeah.
- 37:13Speaker 1: I mean, you look at it like I'd like to
- 37:16Speaker 1: use TV and acting really to kind of explain wrestling,
- 37:20Speaker 1: because Darby Allen is best supporting actor, Like he is
- 37:24Speaker 1: a very important role, but his character doesn't make sense
- 37:28Speaker 1: as a champion. That doesn't reflect on him as a
- 37:30Speaker 1: performer and his craft and how good he is at
- 37:33Speaker 1: his job. But in a narrative sense, the Darby Allen
- 37:37Speaker 1: character does not make sense as a believable champion. And
- 37:41Speaker 1: that's kind of where I struggle. It's like, I just
- 37:43Speaker 1: I don't. You know, maybe maybe you could convince me otherwise,
- 37:47Speaker 1: but like, yeah, I just I just don't. I don't
- 37:49Speaker 1: buy him. I don't believe anybody like I just believe
- 37:51Speaker 1: to people and kill him.
- 37:53Speaker 3: I know.
- 37:53Speaker 4: You brought up his size one of the things that
- 37:56Speaker 4: kind of makes like, Okay, he's really gonna be big guys,
- 38:00Speaker 4: But that's the thing. He knows he's small, and that's
- 38:05Speaker 4: why he does the insane rap that he does. That's
- 38:11Speaker 4: himself into every move every guy, Like he uses himself
- 38:18Speaker 4: as a freaking pinball to hurt the bigger guys, these
- 38:23Speaker 4: stronger guys, these you know, better technicians. Okay, yeah it's
- 38:29Speaker 4: not sustainable, but for right now, it's what he's doing,
- 38:34Speaker 4: and that's why he could be a champion. He could
- 38:36Speaker 4: be that you know, balls to the wall crazy in
- 38:41Speaker 4: every defense and eventually that burns him out and that's
- 38:46Speaker 4: why he loses. Just like just like his TNT title runs,
- 38:50Speaker 4: he didn't match after match after match after match, and
- 38:54Speaker 4: it bit him in the ass in the end, he would.
- 38:57Speaker 2: He would end up having orange Cassidy syndrome, which all
- 39:00Speaker 2: his matches would end up being the same, thank you,
- 39:03Speaker 2: and people would get tired of it because he's always
- 39:05Speaker 2: an underdog and all that. It just it doesn't work
- 39:11Speaker 2: for me. I love the guy last week he was
- 39:14Speaker 2: I love what he does, but he was a little
- 39:16Speaker 2: too dangerous for me with that car wreck. I love
- 39:20Speaker 2: people loved it, but I just didn't.
- 39:22Speaker 1: I went, Yeah, that's the funny part is like he's
- 39:27Speaker 1: good in the ring too, Like he doesn't need to
- 39:29Speaker 1: be like lunatic guy like j Assle, Like I've watched him.
- 39:33Speaker 1: When he gets more, they do more matt stuff like
- 39:35Speaker 1: he can do. He does find in the ring too.
- 39:39Speaker 3: Yeah, I just you know, we talked about a lot
- 39:41Speaker 3: of titles for Darby. We talked a lot about a
- 39:43Speaker 3: lot of titles for Darby. We did mention the ten
- 39:46Speaker 3: team Champions if he gets insulted partner Conrad and the
- 39:50Speaker 3: chat said about Darby, I view him like a Jeff Hardy.
- 39:54Speaker 3: You could definitely give him a quick one one, a
- 39:57Speaker 3: quick one month title. Give a quick one one that's
- 40:00Speaker 3: not the perverted. You could definitely give it a quick
- 40:03Speaker 3: one month title to satisfy his fans. You just have
- 40:06Speaker 3: to pick the right moment. And yeah, I could agree
- 40:09Speaker 3: with that again. Yeah, with Darby Allen, there's there's so
- 40:14Speaker 3: many ways you can go with him. But very made
- 40:16Speaker 3: a good point. He can't wrestle. He is a good
- 40:18Speaker 3: bad technician as well as a because his style of
- 40:24Speaker 3: wrestling is a stuntman. I'm sorry, that's what it is.
- 40:27Speaker 3: And I think that he needs somebody to ground him
- 40:29Speaker 3: and make him more I don't know, believable as a
- 40:34Speaker 3: technician to.
- 40:36Speaker 1: Keep working a team with like Brody. Him and Brody
- 40:39Speaker 1: would the same thing, you know, like, and I know
- 40:42Speaker 1: that's running it back with Bandido, but like, I just
- 40:45Speaker 1: feel like the two of their styles would just compliment
- 40:47Speaker 1: each other so well, and they just kind of jive
- 40:51Speaker 1: as like characters too. Now that Brody is a face.
- 40:53Speaker 4: But.
- 40:56Speaker 3: Not I would mind seeing Darby with Buddy Matthews when
- 41:01Speaker 3: he does return.
- 41:03Speaker 1: Yeah, you could do some stuff with that group. You
- 41:06Speaker 1: could do some fun stuff for that group for sure.
- 41:09Speaker 3: Oh yeah.
- 41:11Speaker 2: I just wish that that steam would have rubbed off
- 41:13Speaker 2: more on him and told him, you know, you don't have.
- 41:16Speaker 3: To destroy your body.
- 41:17Speaker 2: You can work, say if you can be something and
- 41:20Speaker 2: do that.
- 41:21Speaker 1: But I didn't see you we did, dude, Like everybody,
- 41:25Speaker 1: tell listen, he scares me.
- 41:29Speaker 2: I don't want to know that my kid or something.
- 41:31Speaker 2: He scares me, I wish Yeah, yeah.
- 41:34Speaker 1: That's going to be bad.
- 41:36Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, look, let's move on so we can get
- 41:40Speaker 3: this get this show going. Well. We have a return
- 41:48Speaker 3: of sorts coming fairly soon. They're talking about probably April first,
- 41:55Speaker 3: April Fool's Day, the return of Mercedes Monade, a w
- 42:00Speaker 3: the next women's champion. What do you guys think? Now
- 42:04Speaker 3: here's the thing. Mercedes Mayne had what thirteen belts at
- 42:07Speaker 3: one time. She's down to three. On March thirty first,
- 42:12Speaker 3: she's wrestling at Winnipeg Pro Wrestling defending her that title.
- 42:17Speaker 3: So by the time April first comes around, March three
- 42:21Speaker 3: First is in Winnipeg Dynamite in April first is in Winnipeg,
- 42:27Speaker 3: so she's not gonna have to travel very far to
- 42:29Speaker 3: get one place to the other. But when she shows
- 42:33Speaker 3: up on Dynamite, she very well could be two belts
- 42:36Speaker 3: Monette or less. They could add the other two belts
- 42:40Speaker 3: on the stipulation. Hey let's do it free for all,
- 42:43Speaker 3: you know, kind of mean.
- 42:44Speaker 4: One of those belts was the owen Hart one, which
- 42:46Speaker 4: really no, no, no, no.
- 42:49Speaker 3: No, that I don't think that that is one of
- 42:51Speaker 3: the belts.
- 42:52Speaker 1: Wait, what if what if that's the match? What if
- 42:55Speaker 1: her big return is that match and she loses on Dynamite.
- 42:59Speaker 1: What if that's what starts. It's the storyline.
- 43:01Speaker 3: I don't know, but yeah, I mean Mercedes Monette Ash
- 43:07Speaker 3: has dropped a lot of titles. The last one she
- 43:10Speaker 3: dropped was well, she dropped too. She dropped the Scandinavian
- 43:14Speaker 3: and the Scottish Women's Pro Wrestling Champion at rev Pro recently.
- 43:20Speaker 3: I think that was, you know, two titles in one match.
- 43:25Speaker 3: But even though she lost, the crowd showered her with
- 43:30Speaker 3: love and respect. She's that damn good again. When she
- 43:36Speaker 3: first came to AW I was not on the Monet train,
- 43:41Speaker 3: and now I am because she's she's she's damn good. Yeah,
- 43:48Speaker 3: you know it is what it is. I mean, she
- 43:51Speaker 3: does what she does, and she does it better than
- 43:53Speaker 3: anybody else could possibly do it.
- 43:56Speaker 1: There were people who I mean you remember seeing them
- 44:00Speaker 1: online every belt, They just they didn't believe that she
- 44:04Speaker 1: she'd return the favor. And any normal person could see clearly,
- 44:09Speaker 1: clearly that was the whole point, was the belt collector,
- 44:13Speaker 1: and then she was going to return the favor and
- 44:15Speaker 1: put put these women over in these other promotions.
- 44:20Speaker 3: One of the things is, you know, look, she had
- 44:22Speaker 3: thirteen belts. That's a lot of hell and a lot
- 44:24Speaker 3: of belts to do. And there were international belts. There
- 44:27Speaker 3: were very few that were American belts. I mean, she
- 44:31Speaker 3: had the h TV and she had the TBS titled.
- 44:37Speaker 3: Everything else was CMLL Australia, I mean Austria, you know.
- 44:45Speaker 1: Spain, Germany, Austria, Italy.
- 44:48Speaker 3: But here's the thing. She didn't just go and defend
- 44:53Speaker 3: those titles once and lose them. She actually defended those titles,
- 44:57Speaker 3: many of them more than one time before she did
- 45:00Speaker 3: eventually drop them. The other thing is she didn't just
- 45:03Speaker 3: fly into Italy to have a match on a Sunday
- 45:06Speaker 3: on Saturday night, have the match and fly out on
- 45:10Speaker 3: Sunday night. She was going there and she was spending
- 45:13Speaker 3: six hours doing meet and greets with fans on Saturday,
- 45:18Speaker 3: and then she would stick around after the match that
- 45:21Speaker 3: she had on Sunday and she would do meet and greets,
- 45:25Speaker 3: and then they were showing her visiting you know, historic
- 45:28Speaker 3: attractions around the city the next day. She was staying
- 45:33Speaker 3: for like three four days and she was doing press
- 45:36Speaker 3: and whatnot. She is doing a lot for AEW. I
- 45:40Speaker 3: understand people don't like the way she wrestles, and that's fine,
- 45:44Speaker 3: that's a preference. But I don't think you can deny
- 45:49Speaker 3: that she is giving everything that she can for AW.
- 45:54Speaker 1: It's like watching the old champ in the territory system
- 45:58Speaker 1: go through the territories, right, Telson. I mean, well, you
- 46:02Speaker 1: know got tail ends of that, you know, That's what
- 46:04Speaker 1: it reminds me of.
- 46:06Speaker 3: When she first signed with AW, there was a thing
- 46:08Speaker 3: that came out, some quote that said that she would
- 46:12Speaker 3: she could see herself going back to WWE one day,
- 46:16Speaker 3: and that was like within the first month that she
- 46:19Speaker 3: was in AAW. Since then, she has been AWA W AEWAW.
- 46:25Speaker 3: She only mentions WWE when she's asked something about WWE
- 46:30Speaker 3: and it's never complimentary. Put it that way. I personally
- 46:34Speaker 3: don't think that Mercedes Monnet, based on what she says, ever,
- 46:40Speaker 3: wants to go back to WW. I think she's very
- 46:44Speaker 3: happy in AAW.
- 46:46Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I see somebody who takes
- 46:50Speaker 1: the job seriously, and she works for AW, and she
- 46:54Speaker 1: is going to do the job that you need a
- 46:55Speaker 1: superstar for AW to do, because that's how you build
- 46:59Speaker 1: reputation professionally, especially as she's moving into acting in Hollywood,
- 47:03Speaker 1: like she wants to be bankable. And if she was
- 47:07Speaker 1: to go to a different promotion, you know, WWE or
- 47:09Speaker 1: New Japan or CML or whatever, you know, she did
- 47:12Speaker 1: the same thing there. I think that's just a matter
- 47:14Speaker 1: your maturization or whatever. Well, just as a person like
- 47:19Speaker 1: you know, as she is establishing her professional brand identity
- 47:22Speaker 1: in her career, like she wants to show she is
- 47:25Speaker 1: a bankable investment as far as talent goes, whether it's
- 47:28Speaker 1: for your promotion or for your TV show or for
- 47:31Speaker 1: your movie.
- 47:31Speaker 3: You know. But keep in mind also that she left WWEE.
- 47:35Speaker 3: She walked out of WWE when Vincent when Vincent K.
- 47:39Speaker 3: McMahon was running it, when WWE at that time actually
- 47:43Speaker 3: had more wrestling than commercials. I don't know if you
- 47:47Speaker 3: saw this, but in on AW Collision Sunday Night, which
- 47:54Speaker 3: was a one hour show, there was, like I can't
- 47:59Speaker 3: remember the exact total, but I think that there was
- 48:03Speaker 3: I want to say, thirty five or thirty six minutes
- 48:05Speaker 3: of actual wrestling on the one hour show. Monday Night,
- 48:09Speaker 3: Raw had thirty three minutes and a two hour and
- 48:12Speaker 3: fifteen minute show last night. That doesn't afford a lot
- 48:18Speaker 3: of time for somebody of Mercedes Monett's stature. And if
- 48:23Speaker 3: somebody wants to make their mark, if she wants to
- 48:26Speaker 3: go to WWE and retire, that's what you do. But
- 48:31Speaker 3: if you want to go somewhere and wrestle, BWE is
- 48:34Speaker 3: not the place to go. They had four matches last
- 48:36Speaker 3: night on Raw, none of which lasted more than ten minutes,
- 48:40Speaker 3: and again two hour and fifteen minutes show. There was
- 48:42Speaker 3: thirty three minutes worth of wrestling four matches. That's not
- 48:46Speaker 3: going to cut it for a wrestling thing.
- 48:49Speaker 1: It's definitely a different flavor, isn't it.
- 48:51Speaker 2: I see it Bailey comes to AW she staying because
- 48:55Speaker 2: she Yeah, I don't see her going back. But if
- 48:59Speaker 2: Bailey comes though it's for sure that she's going to stay, there's.
- 49:02Speaker 1: No how do you how would you book this? Mercedes
- 49:07Speaker 1: is the one that attacked Tony, Like, how do you
- 49:11Speaker 1: do that?
- 49:12Speaker 5: Well, I like to hear your opinion on that, because,
- 49:19Speaker 5: like earlier, I thought it would makes sense to be her,
- 49:21Speaker 5: Like I didn't see anything in the hints from her stuff,
- 49:25Speaker 5: and I've just been sitting here this whole segment and
- 49:27Speaker 5: I'm like, well, in.
- 49:28Speaker 3: The background there was that neon M which was Mercedes
- 49:31Speaker 3: Monet sign that she used to have you right, but again.
- 49:37Speaker 4: Anything but like you pointed out, she wasn't even in
- 49:42Speaker 4: the country zoom, So the only way.
- 49:44Speaker 1: I totally forgot, Yeah, it wouldn't have been her. I
- 49:48Speaker 1: don't think it's it's probably not her.
- 49:52Speaker 3: Chris made a real, a very good point. You know,
- 49:54Speaker 3: Mercedes Monet is the type of person that would hire
- 49:57Speaker 3: somebody to attack Tony Storm on her behalf. But they've
- 50:01Speaker 3: done that angle already with Camille. I really don't see
- 50:05Speaker 3: that happening again, and it would have to be somebody posing.
- 50:12Speaker 3: I mean, there's been all this talk about the Renegades
- 50:14Speaker 3: joining up with Mercedes Bonetts. But but unless the Renegades
- 50:20Speaker 3: caught Tony Storm when she was sleeping. I don't think
- 50:23Speaker 3: there's any way that so that Robin Renegade could take
- 50:25Speaker 3: out Mercedes Money. So let's let's.
- 50:29Speaker 1: Hang on, Chris, so, let's book all in. Do you
- 50:32Speaker 1: want Mercedes in that title match?
- 50:34Speaker 3: Not necessarily, she could be. Well, keep in mind, if
- 50:40Speaker 3: you're going to book Mercedes Monett for the title match,
- 50:43Speaker 3: why would you take out at all in? Why would
- 50:46Speaker 3: you take out Tony Storm? Because the way you win
- 50:50Speaker 3: a title shot at all in is by winning the
- 50:54Speaker 3: Owen Heart Tournament. Sure, unless you thought, Okay, Tony Storm
- 50:59Speaker 3: is gonna definitely be on the other side of the
- 51:01Speaker 3: bracket and I've got to eliminate her. So I have
- 51:03Speaker 3: a chance because nobody's as good as Tony Storm.
- 51:07Speaker 1: He can just explain it away. She's taking out the
- 51:09Speaker 1: people she hasn't been able to beat. Tony's one of them.
- 51:12Speaker 3: Yeah, but more people go down, then there's a chance
- 51:16Speaker 3: that is.
- 51:17Speaker 1: I'm just like, I'm thinking all in and like, if
- 51:20Speaker 1: I want my big my big matches again. That's why
- 51:23Speaker 1: I was thinking Osprey versus Omega, but Ospray Swerve is
- 51:27Speaker 1: huge too. I want Mercedes in that title match and
- 51:30Speaker 1: if I'm going to crown her with her first title,
- 51:33Speaker 1: that's where I do it as well.
- 51:35Speaker 2: I think she gets it beforehand.
- 51:37Speaker 3: Yeah, she's got so much media and.
- 51:40Speaker 2: Stuff going around that her has a face. That's what
- 51:43Speaker 2: she wants ultimately. She she loved the TBS, but that's
- 51:46Speaker 2: what she wants to be is to be the best
- 51:49Speaker 2: in a w and be the Women's champ. That's what
- 51:52Speaker 2: That's the one title that she's not been able to get.
- 51:55Speaker 2: So I think putting it on there and having her
- 51:59Speaker 2: defended at at all and as the aw champ would
- 52:03Speaker 2: be better in my opinion.
- 52:05Speaker 3: Well, here's another thing that you could do. This is
- 52:08Speaker 3: just my personal opinion. Let's say that Tony Storm was
- 52:12Speaker 3: attacked by somebody that Mercedes Monet did in fact, higher
- 52:17Speaker 3: she admits to it or she's found out or something
- 52:20Speaker 3: like that, then what you have is a pissed off
- 52:26Speaker 3: Mina Shira Kawa. Okay, and you have whoever Mercedes Monet
- 52:31Speaker 3: hired to face at that's revealed I guess on April first,
- 52:37Speaker 3: which is eleven days before Dynasty. Okay, you can set
- 52:42Speaker 3: up a match between Mercedes Monet and her lackey against
- 52:49Speaker 3: Mina Shira Cowen and a wrestler of her choice, and
- 52:52Speaker 3: the wrestler of her choice, in my opinion, would be
- 52:57Speaker 3: somebody that's coming over from Japan to Rust on April
- 53:00Speaker 3: sixteenth already, so she'll probably be able to come to
- 53:04Speaker 3: the country four days earlier participate in this match, and
- 53:08Speaker 3: that would be your Yahimi from U from Stardom, who
- 53:12Speaker 3: is trained by Mina Shirakawa and as a protege in
- 53:17Speaker 3: fact Yuria. Actually war was gifted Mina shira Cow's gear
- 53:24Speaker 3: and has worn it in ring, so that makes sense
- 53:27Speaker 3: to me, and that would be a good match. I think.
- 53:30Speaker 3: I think there would be a good match and one
- 53:32Speaker 3: that in no way, shape or form should Mina Shehark
- 53:35Speaker 3: Minashirkkwen You're a him win that match, but it would
- 53:39Speaker 3: be a good match. It'd be a non title match.
- 53:41Speaker 3: I don't think that Dynasty is the time to have
- 53:44Speaker 3: Mercedes Bone come back and challenge for a title. I
- 53:47Speaker 3: think it should be just a non title feud, a
- 53:50Speaker 3: one off kind of thing, and this would be the
- 53:51Speaker 3: perfect one to me. Any other Yeah, yeah, especially without
- 53:58Speaker 3: Tony Storm, You're gonna need to Mercedes Monet. You do
- 54:03Speaker 3: need her, and this is the perfect opportunity and maybe
- 54:07Speaker 3: I don't know. You know, something tells me that the
- 54:10Speaker 3: Tony Storm think that it's a work if she's not
- 54:13Speaker 3: with child, which you know, worst case scenario. I hope
- 54:18Speaker 3: that's what it is. Best case scenario. Obviously, I hope
- 54:21Speaker 3: that's what it is unless it's a work. And it
- 54:25Speaker 3: could be a work. It really could be, so you
- 54:31Speaker 3: never know. This could be a wink wink, nudge nudge
- 54:33Speaker 3: moment from aw. I hope I'm wrong, because I think
- 54:37Speaker 3: that would be pretty bad. But it is what it is.
- 54:41Speaker 3: But anyway, let's move on because we're gonna go to
- 54:44Speaker 3: our personal favorite part of the show. And I did
- 54:47Speaker 3: this graphic several days ago, and I was thinking how
- 54:50Speaker 3: clever I was, and then it turns out that everybody
- 54:54Speaker 3: and their mother has been making this comparison. However, my
- 54:57Speaker 3: graphic actually has the tattoo in the right place, which
- 55:01Speaker 3: took a long time to do. So when we go
- 55:04Speaker 3: to it's a kaab eh. Let's talk about good old
- 55:09Speaker 3: Leo Rush in his golum turn.
- 55:14Speaker 1: It took a second, It took a second.
- 55:16Speaker 3: Coast, Well, look at the tattoos. Those are Leo Rush's
- 55:19Speaker 3: proper tattoos.
- 55:20Speaker 1: Yeah, I had to move my my camera is covering
- 55:25Speaker 1: it up.
- 55:26Speaker 3: Well, first of all, there's been a lot of discussion.
- 55:29Speaker 3: I guess this is a good thing. I mean, hey,
- 55:32Speaker 3: if you're Leo Rush, you want people talking about you, right,
- 55:36Speaker 3: There's been a lot of discussion whether it's good or
- 55:38Speaker 3: bad about Leo Rush and his Leo Rush as I
- 55:43Speaker 3: tempted to call him all the time. But about Leo
- 55:45Speaker 3: Rush and this this uh gimmick which is what he
- 55:51Speaker 3: used to do in the in the similar to what
- 55:53Speaker 3: he used to do in the Indiza what was it
- 55:55Speaker 3: called the black mart gimme gimmick? But what do you got?
- 55:58Speaker 3: What do you guys think about Leo Rush? The Crew dead?
- 56:01Speaker 1: Is the Crew over?
- 56:02Speaker 3: I kind of think, so, okay, they get a vaccine?
- 56:08Speaker 3: Where's action? Andreddi Ben? Has anybody seen action? And Dreddy?
- 56:13Speaker 2: That was the joke that whenever people says I guess anyway.
- 56:15Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I didn't catch the second half of Collision,
- 56:22Speaker 1: so I didn't see the match.
- 56:24Speaker 2: I didn't see the match, but I saw clips of it.
- 56:26Speaker 2: It's a unique style. It just threw me off when
- 56:29Speaker 2: I first watched it, I said, what is wrong with him?
- 56:32Speaker 2: But the galloping in the ring was kind of cool.
- 56:34Speaker 2: Then doing the tope so you know, and that and
- 56:39Speaker 2: the bouncing off the ropes and stuff. It's unique. I
- 56:42Speaker 2: just a lot of people outside the company are coming
- 56:45Speaker 2: in and saying, what is this and all this junk?
- 56:48Speaker 3: Yeah, but uh, we have to take that place value.
- 56:53Speaker 2: Generally, though, I've seen a lot of people positive for
- 56:55Speaker 2: and it's interesting me. I want to see a little
- 56:57Speaker 2: more of it. I was hoping you guys and you
- 56:59Speaker 2: guys have in New Japan to kind of inform me
- 57:02Speaker 2: about what it used to be, because I have no idea.
- 57:04Speaker 4: He never did this in New japanion m.
- 57:07Speaker 3: Yeah, this was this was an indie gimmick, okay, okay,
- 57:11Speaker 3: and I never saw it before.
- 57:12Speaker 4: Just to make that, I've only seen clips.
- 57:15Speaker 1: So he completely changed his move set. I thought he
- 57:19Speaker 1: just wore the contacts from them, so like he's completely different.
- 57:23Speaker 3: Yeah, Berry, ever seen the movie Megan.
- 57:27Speaker 1: Or clips of it?
- 57:29Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, scene where it's like she's in the forest,
- 57:31Speaker 3: He's like running on all fours. That's what he does.
- 57:35Speaker 3: He's like gullam. He really is, really he's he is
- 57:40Speaker 3: what he's doing.
- 57:41Speaker 1: But he still fast.
- 57:42Speaker 3: He's very fast. It's very weird because it is a
- 57:47Speaker 3: very strange gimmick. But when you look at it at
- 57:50Speaker 3: face value, with his facial expressions and the unusual physical
- 57:57Speaker 3: things that he's doing, it really is kind of impressive. Now,
- 58:01Speaker 3: I'm not saying that I like it or that it's
- 58:02Speaker 3: going to work. I think it's too young for me
- 58:05Speaker 3: to decide whether I like it or don't like it.
- 58:07Speaker 3: And I think that people say oh, I love this
- 58:10Speaker 3: or oh I hate this after one or two, you know,
- 58:14Speaker 3: after five minutes of bnbing on screen is uh, it's
- 58:18Speaker 3: kind of like jumping the gun a little bit, I
- 58:21Speaker 3: don't know.
- 58:22Speaker 2: On a social media page. He has several clips on
- 58:25Speaker 2: there of it, and it's reaching a lot of.
- 58:26Speaker 4: People, almost like a sort of like a trickster demon
- 58:33Speaker 4: kind of gimmick. Like he's weird, he's a little creepy.
- 58:36Speaker 4: He message with you like he does that, you know,
- 58:39Speaker 4: bounce off the ropes and stop go to the other
- 58:41Speaker 4: like that crazy one. He'll fake people in. Uh. I
- 58:47Speaker 4: think part of the reason maybe people are a little
- 58:52Speaker 4: thrown off by it is the shaved head and the
- 58:56Speaker 4: context make make it seem so much weirder. Like it
- 59:02Speaker 4: better when he had to face paint and just normal hair.
- 59:06Speaker 4: I think it's he almost went he subtracted, but subtracted
- 59:13Speaker 4: the wrong things from the look, like the face paint
- 59:18Speaker 4: all that it made it really work well. The contacts.
- 59:25Speaker 3: Well, I will say this, I for one Again, it's
- 59:28Speaker 3: too early for me to say that I'm over the
- 59:31Speaker 3: moon about it or I hate it, But I will
- 59:33Speaker 3: say one thing that I like about it a lot
- 59:36Speaker 3: is that he's not wearing that ridiculous poofy jacket when
- 59:39Speaker 3: he comes out of the out of the entrance way
- 59:41Speaker 3: onto the ramp anymore. That thing juster trooper jackets.
- 59:47Speaker 1: The trooper jackets for the best.
- 59:50Speaker 4: Very very interesting. Give I have to say that, like,
- 59:54Speaker 4: I just wanted to make that clear, like I'm not
- 59:56Speaker 4: hating on it at all, because the look is off,
- 59:59Speaker 4: Like it's a very interesting gimmick, and I want to
- 1:00:02Speaker 4: see more of what he does.
- 1:00:04Speaker 3: Right, It's a good day.
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: When you're talking about Leo Rush, I.
- 1:00:08Speaker 3: Mean that you've got to give him props. Whether it
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: was his decision or Tony Consonsis people are talking about
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: Leo Rush, then that's true. Mkay. Does anybody else have.
- 1:00:18Speaker 4: A yeah on the discord? And I'm pretty sure Tom
- 1:00:25Speaker 4: radmanson this on the question of the podcast last night,
- 1:00:30Speaker 4: Sid is going into the ww Hall of Fame, although
- 1:00:35Speaker 4: it is the legacy wing, which you know, I think
- 1:00:38Speaker 4: he deserves proper Hall of Fame for sure because I
- 1:00:44Speaker 4: kind of timed in with this. I think he is
- 1:00:46Speaker 4: a top five all time big man wrestler.
- 1:00:49Speaker 3: Really, Okay, So yeah.
- 1:00:54Speaker 4: I guess do you agree in that top five? Who
- 1:00:59Speaker 4: would be your top the hen in there? And should
- 1:01:02Speaker 4: he be going proper Hall of Fame instead of just
- 1:01:06Speaker 4: the legacy legacy Hall of Fame?
- 1:01:08Speaker 3: Basically somebody that's retired or passed away, you know, basically,
- 1:01:14Speaker 3: I don't know it's been in the Hall of Fame,
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: not based on their work at w w E, but
- 1:01:19Speaker 3: their legacy, their work throughout different companies, et cetera. Two,
- 1:01:24Speaker 3: I mean, who the hell knows it's w w E.
- 1:01:27Speaker 3: They do, what the hell they want? The legacy legacy
- 1:01:31Speaker 3: Hall of Fame. Whoever ate the most cupcakes and catering
- 1:01:34Speaker 3: gets in the Hall of Fame.
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a.
- 1:01:40Speaker 4: People get time to talk about them or not.
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: I just.
- 1:01:48Speaker 2: I don't know. I just I feel the only thing
- 1:01:50Speaker 2: famous about Sid Vicious was his injury that he that
- 1:01:53Speaker 2: he did I like, I didn't. He wasn't that great
- 1:01:57Speaker 2: of a wrestler. To me, I don't put him in
- 1:02:00Speaker 2: the biggest big man. And I'm not going to do
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: a list because I can't think on top of my head.
- 1:02:04Speaker 2: But I just don't. I just don't see it.
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I don't know if he's top five all
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: time big man. Maybe in w W. I guess. SID
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: has a couple of fun shoot interviews out there, and
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: he's seems like a pretty down to earth guy, like
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: he never like in the country boy, he never like
- 1:02:30Speaker 1: talks up his ability in the ring, like he's very
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: matter of fact of like what he was there for
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: to make money and like what he could do and
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. But there's this I can't
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: stop that lat there's this rumor about this match where
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: he pooped his pants.
- 1:02:47Speaker 3: It's rest I can't thank you, thank you very much
- 1:02:51Speaker 3: for your contribution, Dary.
- 1:02:53Speaker 1: They asked him to shoot interview and he's just he's
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: just like, I didn't boom up, you got man, it's
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: so good.
- 1:03:03Speaker 3: I did well. There was did his pants and he
- 1:03:08Speaker 3: admitted to it as well, didn't you don't know?
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't remember the match.
- 1:03:13Speaker 3: I don't.
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: I don't even remember the.
- 1:03:15Speaker 3: Maybe that was the match. I don't know, but I
- 1:03:16Speaker 3: know that I know there was some ship about ship
- 1:03:19Speaker 3: put it that way.
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't remember.
- 1:03:22Speaker 4: I told it was like a random house show and
- 1:03:25Speaker 4: like they got called like fifteen minutes early. So like
- 1:03:30Speaker 4: that's he like he was going his He held it
- 1:03:33Speaker 4: as log as he could. But right at the end
- 1:03:35Speaker 4: of the match when he hit the stunner, I think it.
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: Was a little spirtspurt.
- 1:03:41Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you hit a stunner in the ring, it
- 1:03:47Speaker 4: shakes your ass up a little bit.
- 1:03:49Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: Well, anyway, the regardless, there's two long sit interviews that
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: are pretty fun and uh in one of them is
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: his Uh it's very upset and clears the air so
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: to speak about No, he did not have.
- 1:04:05Speaker 3: To look this up. Now, Okay, well let's I want
- 1:04:11Speaker 3: to move on. I have a little short Yeah. Yeah,
- 1:04:22Speaker 3: it's w w e you ever each the most couple
- 1:04:26Speaker 3: gets in the in the Hall of Fame. There's no
- 1:04:30Speaker 3: there's no rhyme or reason to it. Uh So anyway,
- 1:04:34Speaker 3: moving on, I do want to mention this because I
- 1:04:36Speaker 3: think it's fun and funny. I posted it in the
- 1:04:39Speaker 3: Women's Joshi Room on the discord and also on the
- 1:04:42Speaker 3: Women's Pro Wrestling subreddit in Stardom, Rhanne, who is a
- 1:04:49Speaker 3: young wrestler up and coming wrestlers, having a feud with
- 1:04:52Speaker 3: Unimism Moory, who is the speed or I think she's no,
- 1:04:55Speaker 3: I don't know, she's still the speed Champion, but anyway,
- 1:05:00Speaker 3: the feud is basically Rheann running up to unimis Amory
- 1:05:05Speaker 3: stomping on her foot and running away. And there are
- 1:05:07Speaker 3: clip after clip after clip after clip of Rheann running
- 1:05:13Speaker 3: up to Universe or Moray stomping on her foot and
- 1:05:16Speaker 3: running away. It is so stupid, but so freaking funny
- 1:05:22Speaker 3: because they're selling it and they're having a lot of
- 1:05:24Speaker 3: fun with it. Uh and and uh Spike on our
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: discord in the Women's Joshi Chat channel actually did a
- 1:05:35Speaker 3: uh did a graphic an illustration of Rheann u as
- 1:05:44Speaker 3: Stone called Steve Austin and it's it's the whole thing
- 1:05:51Speaker 3: is preposterously stupid, but it is so stupid, it's brilliant
- 1:05:58Speaker 3: And yeah, I made a Yeah, the compilation video that
- 1:06:04Speaker 3: I made is just the dumbest thing. And and it
- 1:06:08Speaker 3: ends with them having a drinking contest. Him is Amory
- 1:06:12Speaker 3: is known as the Tropical Girl, so of course she
- 1:06:14Speaker 3: had a tropical drink with an umbrella and a straw,
- 1:06:17Speaker 3: and Rhiann had a energy drink. I think it was
- 1:06:21Speaker 3: supposed to be like a beer. It was yeah, strong
- 1:06:25Speaker 3: zero and uh, she's not a god. She has a
- 1:06:28Speaker 3: drinking problem, meaning that she can't drink at all, and
- 1:06:31Speaker 3: uh it was. It's if you have time, just go
- 1:06:35Speaker 3: look it up on either the Women's Pro Wrestling Sumreddit
- 1:06:38Speaker 3: or on the discord under the women's Joshi chat. And
- 1:06:43Speaker 3: the video is there pretty close to the to the
- 1:06:45Speaker 3: top there, and it's just an entertaining video. What can
- 1:06:49Speaker 3: you do? What can you say?
- 1:06:51Speaker 4: It's a very fun under two minutes.
- 1:06:54Speaker 3: I think it's more like three minutes long because there's
- 1:06:56Speaker 3: a lot of stopping going.
- 1:07:03Speaker 4: If you got three and a half minutes to till
- 1:07:06Speaker 4: watch the video. It's fun, it's entertaining, it's silly in
- 1:07:10Speaker 4: the best way.
- 1:07:12Speaker 3: Yeah, it really is. All right, Well, anybody else have
- 1:07:14Speaker 3: a kafabi before we wrap this up?
- 1:07:16Speaker 4: Oh New Japan Cup round up? If anyone else has anything, first,
- 1:07:21Speaker 4: go ahead, and I'll do that last.

- 1:07:26Speaker 4: I Uh, New Japan Cup is done, and I highly
- 1:07:33Speaker 4: doubt most people had HALLM Newtman as the winner in
- 1:07:37Speaker 4: their New Japan Cup racket. I know I had Euro winning.
- 1:07:41Speaker 4: The match was absolutely fantastic. If you can go, if
- 1:07:47Speaker 4: you could watch it, watch it. Like the little spoiler
- 1:07:50Speaker 4: about the winner ain't gonna change how good the matches
