2:52
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, we're here to talk about AW all in London.
2:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Twenty twenty six and what an event it was maybe one of the most emotional events I've been to like I I'm on like four hours sleep and I've watched that will offer entrance three times.
3:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and I think I I cry more each Oh, that's why my eyes are ready.
3:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, if you hear my voice wobbling it is Robbs just cutting onions like right behind this camera there
3:23
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, yeah, let's start off without without day.
3:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, if you've been following us, we do do a lot of events.
3:30
[SPEAKER_00]: We, we podcast, but we'd like to throw watch parties.
3:32
[SPEAKER_00]: We've thrown wrestling karaoke in the past.
3:35
[SPEAKER_00]: And most of all, the thing we love to do the most is just just hang out and hang out and meet all our listeners and hopefully attract new listeners.
3:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And we started off with a great morning slash early afternoon at
3:51
[SPEAKER_00]: The green man pub in Wembley, shout out Mao, shout out Neil, the managers at this, this great establishment who were able to set all this up for us.
4:01
[SPEAKER_00]: It was great.
4:02
[SPEAKER_00]: We showed up.
4:04
[SPEAKER_00]: We said 12-ish, we didn't like, we said 12-ish.
4:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Ish might not be in time-wise, but Ish, like, the clock, if you remove a one, looks kind of the same time.
4:15
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, we made it.
4:17
[SPEAKER_00]: We got to hang out with all you lovely lovely people, the songs, the musical.
4:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Wrestling things inside were blaring.
4:24
[SPEAKER_00]: The beer was flowing.
4:27
[SPEAKER_00]: We had people in costume.
4:28
[SPEAKER_00]: We had timeless Tony Storm was there, Orange Casti, Samoa Joe, Naito, Naito.
4:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think that was just a British guy, but still with weak knees.
4:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
4:40
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, we had a great time.
4:43
[SPEAKER_00]: We did have the, uh, uh, Osprese days on tap, the Will Osprese inspired.
4:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah, somehow across the pond, you're still managed to do the gimmicks we always do, at least back home.
4:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Actually, whatever we usually go.
4:58
[SPEAKER_01]: So good on you for getting this done where we had a united empire
5:03
[SPEAKER_01]: will Osprey inspired beer.
5:06
[SPEAKER_01]: I know you, you've asked Will in the past, you know, what kind of kind of bevy's does he does he like?
5:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the beer, obviously, as a competitor, as him, as an athlete, maybe not always, is thing.
5:18
[SPEAKER_01]: We know he likes the stuff, the res, the sweet stuff, but seeing an Osprey beer was pretty great.
5:27
[SPEAKER_01]: And the gimmick we do is, hey, if you name a drink
5:33
[SPEAKER_01]: people might buy it just because it's named after it.
5:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even like hops.
5:39
[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't even like it.
5:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I got, I had one.
5:41
[SPEAKER_01]: So you know what, so then people were buying it and walking around drinking the auspricy days.
5:47
[SPEAKER_01]: But this was incredible.
5:49
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, if you have followed us, you can at Boys and Run upon Twitter Instagram and check out some of the content.
5:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, we'll probably post a lot today of our week so far.
5:58
[SPEAKER_01]: But you can follow along on the Instagram.
6:01
[SPEAKER_01]: It was incredible seeing so many people.
6:03
[SPEAKER_01]: We we made a free event.
6:04
[SPEAKER_01]: We just had people share this event.
6:06
[SPEAKER_01]: This green man pub is this huge like beer garden near Wembley and so many people turned up.
6:12
[SPEAKER_01]: We had listeners.
6:13
[SPEAKER_01]: We had post-wrestling listeners.
6:15
[SPEAKER_01]: We had people who just like, hey, this sounds fun because it's a bunch of wrestling fans and some cheap pints and stuff like that.
6:20
[SPEAKER_01]: And there was like food truck.
6:21
[SPEAKER_01]: There was
6:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It was so cool.
6:24
[SPEAKER_01]: We were a little late, but as we rocked up around the corner, I could just see like this C of people.
6:29
[SPEAKER_01]: There must have been like 150 people plus at some point there.
6:33
[SPEAKER_01]: So that was incredible.
6:35
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you are a new listener, an old listener, maybe we cross path.
6:40
[SPEAKER_01]: this week, this weekend.
6:42
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to say thank you because it's so much fun.
6:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Crossing the pond, seeing people that maybe we've never gone back and forth with.
6:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe you've never interacted with us and it's so cool to talk to people from England, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia.
6:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Not too many Americans that are event, which I think I'm okay with.
7:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Sorry, thanks.
7:03
[SPEAKER_01]: We still love you.
7:05
[SPEAKER_01]: It was just awesome.
7:06
[SPEAKER_01]: I got to talk to so many different people
7:10
[SPEAKER_01]: They listened to us for years, so it is incredible.
7:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Someone wasn't sure what we look like.
7:16
[SPEAKER_00]: So they wanted that.
7:17
[SPEAKER_00]: We realized, Sean, and why you do the right thing by having their faces on their thumbnails, whereas we just do the images of the show.
7:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Because YouTube, like right now.
7:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
7:28
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not bad looking, you know?
7:30
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's just funny.
7:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Someone's like, I had to Google you guys before I came up to talk to you, because I wanted to make sure, you know, I was talking to the right guys.
7:39
[SPEAKER_01]: We're very approachable.
7:40
[SPEAKER_01]: We're very friendly, and yeah, if I came across to you this weekend in any way, I want to say thanks.
7:47
[SPEAKER_01]: There's so many people tuning, but new and old friends, man, this is the wrestling this weekend was insane, and we're going to get into it, but the reason I love doing this is kind of stuff and connecting and wrestling is that little weird tender of
8:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Are we sports fans?
8:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Are we theater kids?
8:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Are we just nerds?
8:07
[SPEAKER_01]: It brings us all kind of together.
8:09
[SPEAKER_00]: It's always like I chatted to the managers there and was like, how's everything for you?
8:14
[SPEAKER_00]: And they're like, this is easy.
8:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Everyone's so nice.
8:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Everyone's so chill.
8:18
[SPEAKER_00]: People are spending money, which is good for them and and even with like the security at Wembley, because we were moving around.
8:26
[SPEAKER_00]: We had our media passes, which
8:30
[SPEAKER_00]: want to shout out AEW, like they really took care of us and some really great food they had on and coffee.
8:38
[SPEAKER_00]: They had coffee, we had coffee right now, but I think three coffees, John and I had three, I think you were two, were you?
8:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like I really appreciate all the hospitality, like AEW afforded us this weekend.
8:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, goolash, you have to do the medians.
8:58
[SPEAKER_00]: So that was great, but yeah, we were able to kind of walk around.
9:01
[SPEAKER_00]: So we went to the floor for a few things because wanted to get the entrances and see the fireworks from the roof and some other people with...
9:11
[SPEAKER_00]: who weren't lanyard wankers were kind of sent away but we we chatted with security and like how is the event and the like our man everyone's awesome this is this is so easy this is a great time so yeah thank you no issues there weren't any fights at the Green Man pub so yeah it was an awesome awesome start to the day and then we just made the the little walk
9:34
[SPEAKER_00]: What did you say to him?
9:35
[SPEAKER_01]: No, honestly, it was, um, it's so much fun.
9:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm definitely wrestled out now after watching a whole lot of wrestling.
9:42
[SPEAKER_01]: There's something to go wrong tonight.
9:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, if I got, yeah, we still have to watch Heat Wave.
9:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we do, right?
9:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
9:48
[SPEAKER_01]: I ain't watching that.
9:50
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry.
9:51
[SPEAKER_01]: At least this week, give me a few days.
9:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, this whole week has been great.
9:56
[SPEAKER_01]: We are going to shoot off to Liverpool and Dublin before I eventually fly back home.
10:02
[SPEAKER_01]: So very excited to come across the Pond and do some things.
10:04
[SPEAKER_01]: And you're obviously a great tour guide as well.
10:07
[SPEAKER_00]: So what is with these little European tricks you've done?
10:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Where?
10:14
[SPEAKER_00]: the arrestling company here's our plan and books it because three years ago, 2026, you came over and we did laundry, 2023 so we did London and then we went to Berlin.
10:29
[SPEAKER_00]: very shortly after WWE announced a big first ever PLE in Berlin.
10:35
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we booked this trip, we're off to Liverpool and Tuesday.
10:39
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're from Liverpool, I know we're hoping to meet Matti and Gareth who couldn't make it this weekend, but if you're on Liverpool and you're at listener, hit us up.
10:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Same with Dublin.
10:48
[SPEAKER_00]: We book it and then towards the end of the show, media came around with little press releases and they're going to dynasty in Liverpool in February, which is interesting because I thought Dynasty was an April paper view.
11:03
[SPEAKER_01]: So you're saying we should book a trip to Amsterdam.
11:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that where you want AEW to go next?
11:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
11:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
11:10
[SPEAKER_00]: OK. Yeah.
11:11
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
11:13
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
11:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, or you?
11:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure I'm sure Will.
11:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure Osprey is pushing for that as well.
11:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
11:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Shadow Richard Sumet and J.P. For help with a skeptic.
11:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you know what they call them, like the dispensaries in Amsterdam?
11:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, no.
11:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Coffee shops.
11:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Nice.
11:33
[SPEAKER_01]: So, right, if you want to enjoy some coffee, yeah, a few people this week were like, wow, you lived the gimmick.
11:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
11:40
[SPEAKER_01]: I almost, well, I almost arrested this week, that's for the Patreon.
11:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Just give it for the page.
11:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I wouldn't go that far.
11:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you, you've got in a little bit of hot water, shall we say?
11:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but you can't keep me down, supersonic.
11:56
[SPEAKER_01]: very fun week.
11:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I went to mystery wrestling.
11:59
[SPEAKER_01]: It was so cool to see like local like UK talent being mixed in there and then shout out Evaluno and mystery wrestling for bringing the like Canadian crew over.
12:11
[SPEAKER_01]: This was like this huge like 600 plus people it felt like in this really hot and sweaty venue.
12:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank goodness for portable fans.
12:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Think ahead.
12:20
[SPEAKER_01]: It was so much fun.
12:22
[SPEAKER_01]: I know they, you know, put up their shows and replays, but we had some like AEW surprises in there.
12:26
[SPEAKER_01]: I know Eve ran the Friday night, which looked pretty bloody and scary with Sky Blue.
12:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Hope she's okay.
12:32
[SPEAKER_01]: But mystery wrestling delivered once again, and I was, as a Canadian, watching all the Brits lose their mind to people that we watch quite regular.
12:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, Shastien.
12:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was so awesome to see.
12:46
[SPEAKER_01]: So I, I, I, I, I,
12:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was great.
12:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Like Canada getting some love over here.
12:51
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was happy that I got to go.
12:52
[SPEAKER_01]: So again, thank you to a listener, Richard, who happened to have an extra ticket, because it was soy.
12:57
[SPEAKER_01]: It was very sold out.
12:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of these indie shows.
13:01
[SPEAKER_01]: And then we, from that, went to Rev Pro on Saturday night.
13:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep, we went to feed the yak.
13:08
[SPEAKER_00]: In Wendley, a great name for a pub and had some shout out to Simon who was like, you have to have this, it's a
13:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I in brew, that would be it and he was like, I know it might sound crazy and I was like, you do not understand how much we like, sour beers.
13:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
13:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, I in brew, I'm brew's hit and miss, but, um, what is in iron?
13:35
[SPEAKER_00]: It's, it's, um, orange, something.
13:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's definitely not orange.
13:40
[SPEAKER_00]: It's it's I am, but yeah, they were flowing very nicely.
13:47
[SPEAKER_00]: We got to see JP, which was great, and it got to see so many people bushmen.
13:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Coach B. Lisa, just gonna, there's so many people that we cactus Chris has so many, we can't, you said here a name, everybody, but trust me, if you cross path.
14:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Joy-C, they do.
14:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Like we had such a fun time hanging out with so many friends and, you know, people that maybe we connect with online and go back and forth with them.
14:12
[SPEAKER_01]: finally get to hang out.
14:14
[SPEAKER_01]: The best was Rev Pro.
14:14
[SPEAKER_01]: We had like, everyone kind of sit together.
14:18
[SPEAKER_01]: It was like, you know, a big group of us kind of all maneuvered in this Wembley arena to watch Rev Pro, and that was just so much fun.
14:26
[SPEAKER_00]: So, uh, yourself, JP and I all arrive slightly late.
14:30
[SPEAKER_00]: We're like, ah, we can miss the first few minutes.
14:33
[SPEAKER_00]: And we got a message in our group chat saying,
14:40
[SPEAKER_00]: trolling because we're we're not there at the start.
14:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
14:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
14:44
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we get to our seats and why will Osprey wrestling the night before the begin?
14:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Bad joke is around and everyone's like, yo, guys, guys, look, Osprey's in the match.
14:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, yeah, yeah, Osprey's in the match.
14:56
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, look who's like, he's lying on the corner right now.
14:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I look and like, does he?
15:00
[SPEAKER_00]: No, he has a match?
15:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
15:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, clearly he didn't do like in insane amount in that match.
15:06
[SPEAKER_01]: He just did some some playing.
15:08
[SPEAKER_01]: It did finish.
15:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I haven't gotten there and made it look good.
15:11
[SPEAKER_00]: It made his mates look good.
15:12
[SPEAKER_01]: But honestly, I don't Tony Khan answered about that.
15:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, allowing him any study trusted him.
15:18
[SPEAKER_01]: You could see Will was on his best behavior.
15:20
[SPEAKER_00]: But it was also a cool little thing to sort of set up.
15:24
[SPEAKER_00]: This huge entrance we had, you know, he did the match ends and he's he talks to Alan Calabon, Newman and he's going, how you know, had our differences recently like I've been vocal about not.
15:38
[SPEAKER_00]: happy the way United Empire has been run and stuff but it would mean the world for me if my little brother walked me to the ring and was ringside so I post that video and a lot people are like oh shit it expecting like an angle on this like biggest show that
15:55
[SPEAKER_00]: set up restaurant kingdom I think it was great it made it really made rev pro kind of feel part you know we've got this my AEW thing now with with all these great indie promotions of a part of it and it it just made it it feel like if you were at that rev pro event you were
16:13
[SPEAKER_00]: You were seeing something.
16:14
[SPEAKER_00]: It was important, you know, I knew it.
16:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, Will's wanting to give back to to British wrestling and he was mentioning that in the presser, but yeah, just setting up that, that cool little thing with Kalan Newman.
16:24
[SPEAKER_00]: And I do expect over the next few months, uh, two build to that match, uh, for for Russell Kingdom.
16:33
[SPEAKER_00]: And, uh, yeah, so I, I thought there was a really cool way to start the Rev Pro show.
16:37
[SPEAKER_01]: No, it was, it was great.
16:39
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that gives them such a rub.
16:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, like I know of them years ago, you probably put me on to them because we'll last where it was still wrestling prominently for them and New Japan and stuff.
16:50
[SPEAKER_01]: But to give them that kind of bump, they got a lot of news outlets covering that.
16:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, hey, you all spray showed up at his kind of his local,
17:00
[SPEAKER_01]: even though it was in this arena and like a lot of people turned up for Rev Pro on Saturday.
17:05
[SPEAKER_01]: So it felt really special.
17:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I haven't seen final numbers, but it seems like around like 4500 something like that, which is just, I mean, it looked great.
17:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Like the arena I've worked to that arena before and I worked like events with less people than were were at Rev Pro.
17:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it was it was really impressive to see
17:27
[SPEAKER_00]: and Indy Show doing that while I think you said it kind of felt a bit like that for Chicago all in where you're going.
17:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, this is an Indy Show.
17:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Indy Show and look at this production and the talent you've got involved in this and the amount of bombs on seats and all that.
17:43
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, really, really enjoyed what we won't spend too long ago, but what was some highlights for you?
17:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, a bunch of people kept asking because I'm not super familiar.
17:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, obviously, no Zack Saber Jr. and Pack and some of these guys are.
17:58
[SPEAKER_01]: But J. Joshua and Zack Saber Jr. That was a really good match.
18:02
[SPEAKER_01]: That might have been one of my favorites from that night as well as the.
18:05
[SPEAKER_00]: We changed if we just J. Joshua like.
18:09
[SPEAKER_00]: killing.
18:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Like just doing everything and it won a huge area to put that down at the end.
18:15
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, that that I saw him last year with the Wolverhampton show and I thought, oh, I feel Braden would like.
18:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
18:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
18:22
[SPEAKER_00]: He really stood out for sure.
18:24
[SPEAKER_01]: The tag team match with all the Americans in it, FTR versus the cowboy.
18:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Matt Cowboy.
18:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Wait with white.
18:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
18:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, no.
18:33
[SPEAKER_01]: That was pretty good.
18:33
[SPEAKER_01]: It looked like that one new turn in the Wolfpack stick.
18:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I was bloody.
18:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
18:37
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a bloody bloody match, but that really got the crowd into it.
18:41
[SPEAKER_01]: It made of it.
18:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Oku and Mills.
18:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
18:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Oku and Mills are another bloodbath.
18:44
[SPEAKER_01]: But I mean, will our spray coming out got a big part, but not as big as
18:50
[SPEAKER_01]: double J, Jeff Jarrett.
18:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, like I lost my mind, but they were the one.
18:56
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, there is a bit of a, you know, there's something about like TNA did pretty well here, you know, because during a time when UK was maybe a bit staff for wrestling and TNA would do those tours and they'd work that I'm pretty sure they ran that arena.
19:14
[SPEAKER_00]: They'd always do really well.
19:19
[SPEAKER_00]: like what we did to show recently about Jeff Jarrett.
19:21
[SPEAKER_00]: There's this weird like nostalgia charm, and I think you found respect for him.
19:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, there was that rain of terror, which rains of terror, but I think now people kind of
19:37
[SPEAKER_00]: started like ironically loving him and now just on ironically loving double j and Seriously like you put it road warrior pop foster dog just in 99 part where the Brits went I jumped out of my menu both jumped out very soon, but every Brit in that place was going mental Project Jared.
19:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean it was you came out to my world came out with the guitar All you needed to do is the strut hit the stroke and the only thing that was missing was there's a guy called Joshua James
20:07
[SPEAKER_00]: But you know, this is like gone that style, right?
20:11
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's it was like, you know, gone that essentially, like people just keep coming out and then one fall to a finish.
20:18
[SPEAKER_00]: And this guy Joshua James comes out.
20:20
[SPEAKER_00]: But we, you know,
20:22
[SPEAKER_00]: audio in indie shows, audio in wrestling isn't always the clearest.
20:28
[SPEAKER_00]: So we don't really catch his name from the ring announcer and then his titan charm just says James.
20:36
[SPEAKER_00]: As it
20:45
[SPEAKER_01]: They were like, well, and that's how you go James did we did we start our like there was so many uh, interesting like what do you chance?
20:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we were chance and you brits always singing and all that stuff.
20:55
[SPEAKER_01]: But I felt proud of myself because we were like James we're all just laughing like this guy's name.
21:00
[SPEAKER_01]: So I thought well, what's the song that I know that has James in it?
21:04
[SPEAKER_01]: It's
21:05
[SPEAKER_01]: My name is James, and then I went to you and like, what's the change and then you just started seeing it?
21:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, James, the giant peach, and there were people behind us joined it, like Brits are very supportive.
21:19
[SPEAKER_00]: I know, like, sometimes the Americans don't quite get it and think,
21:25
[SPEAKER_00]: or trying to get yourself over or whatever.
21:27
[SPEAKER_00]: That's just how we are.
21:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I was accused in a hostel in Romania once.
21:34
[SPEAKER_00]: My group of friends were accused of being hobbits because we just sung about everything, right?
21:38
[SPEAKER_00]: It is true, but it's the supposiveness of you started my name as James from James and the Giant Peach for James and people, like, I got you last.
21:48
[SPEAKER_00]: They say, we were robbed of James V. Jeff.
21:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because then there was a double J chance, and then we started channeling double James.
21:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Say, Jeff got a shit in it, and then it was like, I'm gonna sleep on the level.
22:01
[SPEAKER_01]: As did all the New Japan entry.
22:03
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that matches well, but I get it.
22:05
[SPEAKER_01]: I get it.
22:07
[SPEAKER_01]: It was hilarious.
22:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't get the Luke J. Cups.
22:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Whoa, I'm like, wait a second.
22:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Is that not Velare?
22:17
[SPEAKER_01]: and then you explained to me that that's a part of it.
22:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I, it was the Viarra song for me, Patrick Viarra.
22:23
[SPEAKER_00]: He comes from Senegal.
22:24
[SPEAKER_00]: He plays for Arsenal.
22:25
[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, because it doesn't fit that, like, J.
22:27
[SPEAKER_00]: It's worth it.
22:28
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, I guess it's a good J. I just had the lyrics.
22:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Rosé, he comes from Manchester.
22:32
[SPEAKER_00]: He'll fucking murder, yeah.
22:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I think that's what I was saying, something like that.
22:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, well, he's a good wrestler too.
22:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but J comes was, right?
22:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, yeah, on his back, right?
22:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was a lot of fun.
22:43
[SPEAKER_01]: watching that show and watching with a big group of people and enjoying ourselves.
22:49
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, that was a so much fun at big pat like from mystery wrestling.
22:53
[SPEAKER_01]: I then had to boogie on over to make it to Rev Pro.
22:56
[SPEAKER_01]: And then from that, we went to a piano bar, my friend Reckless Rob showed up.
23:00
[SPEAKER_01]: You got the live band to play final countdown for Rob.
23:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you ever heard a live band play Europe before?
23:09
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I don't like so.
23:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's great.
23:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the guitar's was like, I ain't doing that.
23:14
[SPEAKER_01]: He's all alone, which is fair.
23:17
[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, we also, you wrote the request and you were like, our friend Rob literally just landed and this is this favorite song.
23:23
[SPEAKER_01]: So they're like, we could see them trying to like listen to it while they were playing other songs.
23:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Like it was pretty impressive coming from like music background.
23:31
[SPEAKER_01]: But then they, they, they,
23:34
[SPEAKER_01]: We're ready like who's Rob and then we point them out and Rob was like, what's going on?
23:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Why what's going on?
23:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Come on down, Rob's like, no, oh, I don't know what time zone I mean, I've just got here.
23:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Please do not embarrass me like this.
23:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Like now we'll be with you.
23:47
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like what did it do?
23:48
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I go after an air ear.
23:49
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, you're by the way, Anthony award.
23:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
23:52
[SPEAKER_01]: She's like what?
23:53
[SPEAKER_01]: And then all the ladies who were flocking, Rob's got to just walk around with that.
23:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, something like that.
23:58
[UNKNOWN]: Yes.
23:59
[SPEAKER_01]: uh but yes uh that was our our Saturday night and it was it was quite epic so then it all led into Sunday with all in.
24:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah well let's get into some all in we uh we didn't make it for the whole of the uh zero hour we knew how.
24:16
[SPEAKER_00]: it was going to be a long, long day, but just running through the results.
24:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Leo Rush and the Raskos defeated the Ops in the first match on the buy-in.
24:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Raskos and now been granted a Trio's match on Wednesday against the new level and Swavestrick Lindwich.
24:35
[SPEAKER_00]: That sounds an awesome first match for the new level, I guess.
24:39
[SPEAKER_00]: been big fan of the raw school's MSK for a long long time, so yeah, I think that's going to kill it on Wednesday.
24:47
[SPEAKER_01]: So, um, the Costco guys, they have Costco in England.
24:51
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like a last year, four times.
24:53
[SPEAKER_01]: There was no risler though.
24:54
[SPEAKER_01]: He was there.
24:56
[SPEAKER_01]: He was watching the show.
24:58
[SPEAKER_01]: He's in the crowd, but he didn't show up.
25:00
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was wondering, like, what happened there?
25:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Is there a heat with the Costco guys in the risler?
25:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Is there still?
25:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe I just didn't watch it.
25:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe
25:09
[SPEAKER_01]: My changes are changing because I showed up and I saw it was a Costco guy, but then like I mentioned, the media area had.
25:17
[SPEAKER_01]: go there and cheesecake and coffee.
25:21
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was like, I could go for a double chunk, chocolate cookie, but right now I got to get sorted and by the time I kind of got to my seat, I did miss this man.
25:28
[SPEAKER_00]: We've seen them in off time.
25:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, there was Harley Cameron, Chris Stattlander, defeat the sisters in sin, and then boom and doom, big boom AJ, UT Marshall, and the hurt syndicate, defeating Shane Taylor promotions.
25:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, just kind of weird the Hertz Syndicate, their role in AEW right now, you know, there was some accusations and rumours flying around, not wanting to necessarily do the J-O-B too much in AEW and I think that was evident at.
26:03
[SPEAKER_00]: was it last year's all in or the when they just walked out of the match, you know, they they were brought into the back during their trios match.
26:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
26:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Remember, and was it last year they were in a three-way tag for the title?
26:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
26:16
[SPEAKER_00]: And they were backstage when the pin was decided.
26:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh.
26:19
[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah.
26:20
[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't know.
26:20
[SPEAKER_00]: It's kind of weird seeing these guys who seem really over when they first came into AEW.
26:28
[SPEAKER_00]: doing Costco guy stuff on a lion.
26:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm not I'm not sure what the reason is.
26:33
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like they could be using a different way, but also maybe just this time the cycle of yeah stories and stuff.
26:40
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not sure, but yeah, hurt what would be the like the Costco syndicate.
26:48
[SPEAKER_00]: What is in boom and doom is the boom syndicate, the boom syndicate, Jesus, but then we had I guess like kind of the first sort of, it's a big match on the, on the buy-in and that was my world defending against Persephone, did find it a little peculiar, we had the opportunity to interview my world at the media junk here and
27:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm that still haven't been announced yet.
27:19
[SPEAKER_00]: So you're kind of dancing around the question.
27:21
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, we're assuming you're wrestling on Sunday.
27:25
[SPEAKER_00]: And she's like, yeah, I mean, assuming I'm wrestling on Sunday, I hope this and this planned.
27:31
[SPEAKER_00]: She did mention in that interview.
27:33
[SPEAKER_00]: She kind of made this bringier with a bit of a,
27:35
[SPEAKER_00]: a tribute to her like brother and believe it was like his name was like round her her legs sort of a a garter kind of piece and so that was nice.
27:45
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, Persephone who's you know built up a bit of steam in AEW and CMLL recently, defeating my world after some interference with the return of Dr.
27:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Brick Baker DMD.
28:01
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a reminder, you gotta go see your dentists, everyone, because the dentists in the back, you'll see you now.
28:07
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like that was something a lot of fans.
28:13
[SPEAKER_01]: around the weekend.
28:14
[SPEAKER_01]: I saw a lot of brick baker shirts going into Wembley.
28:17
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm like, was I missing something?
28:19
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't expect this at all, especially when the like the reveal with the mask and everything.
28:25
[SPEAKER_01]: So, but I guess the Brits here, they wanted to see it, because I didn't actually got a pretty decent reaction.
28:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
28:33
[SPEAKER_01]: It's weird because she's been away for so long and people have been asking for like what feels like almost two years of
28:41
[SPEAKER_01]: But then we have the rebel heart thing in a few weeks and like obviously Brits got to be enrolled.
28:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you gotta be on that show.
28:49
[SPEAKER_01]: So I guess maybe they wanted to do the reveal now and and stuff.
28:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, hopefully there's like things been sorted.
28:55
[SPEAKER_00]: It did feel like, you know, the
28:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Nobody cares, nobody cares, stuff was serena deep, that there's maybe some attitude issues and things you had the issues with MJF backstage and things like that.
29:06
[SPEAKER_01]: If you remember a couple of years ago, what I mean, what I do remember is the last time I can remember seeing her was the match with Mercedes in this stadium when obviously wasn't great.
29:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so I mean, it's cool that she's back.
29:18
[SPEAKER_01]: I hope everything is all right with her.
29:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously it might be because she did some physicality here.
29:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Hopefully it's we can see the evolution.
29:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm kind of I'm mixed with Brick Baker because I Yeah, I think she was such a huge part of Early on W and especially when I think of those pandemic episodes, I'm thinking of you know
29:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Britt Baker with Rebel, Britain, a wheelchair, bullying Tony Shabbani, sending notes who, and she was fantastic, and I'd say she was the first women's wrestler in AEW to to really get over as a defined.
29:57
[SPEAKER_00]: character homegrown either and in the story and she's she's been hitting miss in the ring and I do think the in ring standard has progressed but you know maybe there was some attitude things as well and sometimes that can lead to
30:14
[SPEAKER_00]: lack of chemistry in the ring.
30:15
[SPEAKER_00]: And hopefully all that stuff is brought under the bridge, give her another chance.
30:20
[SPEAKER_00]: And because I think there is some fun stuff that character can do in the women's division.
30:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Now it's it's can she live up to the standard that has been set in these last two years by your your willows, your stallanders, your Athena's, your Mercedes, your Myers, like all those kind of women.
30:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
30:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Can she live up to it?
30:39
[SPEAKER_00]: But
30:41
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't mind this finish, it gave like a big surprise before the main shows even started.
30:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I think my world, they've, they've achieved what they needed to do.
30:50
[SPEAKER_00]: She didn't need to have this epic run with this title.
30:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I think she's had this, like, well-wind.
30:58
[SPEAKER_00]: few months and she's really grabbed every opportunity she has and now she can be an even more sympathetic baby face because now she's got a chase for that title again like that there was no story with her and she'da really when she won the title in the first place but now she's going up against Persephone and Brick Baker and you know maybe that's she can her and
31:28
[SPEAKER_00]: It, like Mercedes had a great run with it, but it feels like it should be giving this kind of level of people opportunities.
31:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I'd rather than your willows, your stats, and your Mercedes being tied up with it who really should be focusing on the world championship.
31:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, completely agree.
31:46
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a little like, oh, why would she attack her though?
31:50
[SPEAKER_01]: And then it cut to like them, kind of promo backstage where she basically
31:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, yeah, I'm back, and I want to make some friends who are also bad guys and person up in the sea, yeah, Percy, and they mentioned Thunder Rosa, who obviously there is some history there.
32:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, thank you.
32:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
32:07
[SPEAKER_01]: So, okay, it's kind of tied in there, and I'm sure you could keep these two as as a pair.
32:12
[SPEAKER_01]: So, yeah, you know, Brick Baker always came across as a really good talker and a really good character on a W all those years back.
32:20
[SPEAKER_01]: I do wonder about the wrestling, I think that was something that maybe when we had people come in a few years ago, and that match with Mercedes, it did maybe turn some people off, so maybe you should turn this all around and deliver some good stuff.
32:35
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it just doesn't need to rest all the time.
32:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess she is a really good promo and even in that thing left, backstage, but yeah.
32:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Then we had the trio's uh, let me get this right.
32:46
[SPEAKER_00]: The trio's roulette, roulette, roulette, roulette or whatever that is, uh, which was explained to us as a, uh,
32:56
[SPEAKER_00]: 21 man casino royal because it like a battle royal battle royal over the top rope both feet have to fit hit the floor But each member of the team has to be eliminated.
33:10
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's not one person eliminated.
33:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the whole team out.
33:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Each member of the team has to be eliminated.
33:16
[SPEAKER_00]: And there was a surprise final entrant.
33:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Now.
33:21
[SPEAKER_00]: They were definitely off with the pacing of this match.
33:23
[SPEAKER_00]: This match went like 39 minutes.
33:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I believe, and they were trying to do the gimmick where it's called a buy-in.
33:31
[SPEAKER_00]: You're trying to encourage people to buy the show and leaving the fine-awentrant to kick off all in, which I think was a great idea.
33:41
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they probably started the match a little too early and got to some of the entrance a little too quickly,
33:50
[SPEAKER_00]: two minute intervals, and then it's like, head minutes with no one coming out.
33:56
[SPEAKER_01]: There was a time, look, you know, it's cool that we had basically a rural rumble with all these different teams of trios, but I did feel the pacing was off.
34:05
[SPEAKER_01]: And if I had maybe one critique of really, probably the whole show would be that this did not need to go 40 minutes.
34:13
[SPEAKER_01]: It just felt like there was so many laws of
34:16
[SPEAKER_01]: waiting around.
34:17
[SPEAKER_01]: The bad guys trying to just put the boots to them, like classic whoa rumble like in between parts that are just waiting.
34:25
[SPEAKER_01]: And then no one would kind of and then the clock would keep going.
34:28
[SPEAKER_01]: And it felt like maybe there was a little bit something that was off with that like last final.
34:34
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd say like maybe not 10 minutes, but five minutes of just like everyone in the, even the crowd were like, okay, so wait,
34:46
[SPEAKER_01]: And we're just nothing's happening.
34:49
[SPEAKER_01]: So it felt like there was maybe a miscommunication of timing there.
34:53
[SPEAKER_01]: But not to say all those teams and all the wrestlers in this match, they were doing stuff up to that point.
35:00
[SPEAKER_01]: And all the trios, yet some big elimination, you had Brody be eliminated.
35:04
[SPEAKER_01]: So it was kind of like, oh, one of the champions is gone.
35:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you have to get rid of all three, like you said.
35:08
[SPEAKER_01]: But
35:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I felt as well, though, it's not like it eight time in the, you know, people, I heard some people saying like, oh man, but we could have had like more time for this than that.
35:19
[SPEAKER_00]: It's, well it was,
35:20
[SPEAKER_00]: on the main show was only five ten minutes sure you know so it didn't really take up much time yeah it was just yeah the pacing maybe have a few more talking segments with Renee to just yeah before going into it because you kind of didn't burn out the crowd but yeah slightly where everyone was going man that went quite long and
35:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I then in the next match when everyone goes over the top row from like, oh, they're a limit.
35:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, no, it's it's not that much overdid.
35:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I haven't done anything.
35:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll just eliminate it.
35:49
[SPEAKER_00]: But yes, big surprise.
35:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we all knew it was coming, but
36:11
[SPEAKER_01]: not have anyone guessed that they would use a name like that.
36:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Think of the weeks of speculation people are going to go by the old day, day break, the midnight hour, just coffee and create, like, there's so many things that are spans and people out there were like speculating like what could they call themselves?
36:28
[SPEAKER_01]: As soon as the thing hit with like the video game kind of like this crazy drag and kind of thing I was like and I saw a new level I was like oh that's a great thing because it's a you can chant it like level yeah and right away everyone and we picked up on that
36:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And the video game like, you know, it's a new level in that career.
36:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it.
36:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it made all the sense in the world, crazy reaction.
36:56
[SPEAKER_01]: And the theme song, the theme song, new level, ASAP, Fragon Future.
37:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Like that's a banger from a few years ago.
37:04
[SPEAKER_01]: But as soon as I hit, I was like, I was like,
37:06
[SPEAKER_01]: What they're using.
37:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, they're using a real song.
37:09
[SPEAKER_01]: I know this song and I started rapping along like Oh, and then John is John Pollock sitting next to me It's like what what is this?
37:15
[SPEAKER_01]: What is this?
37:15
[SPEAKER_01]: It's I'm like a sap ferg in future.
37:17
[SPEAKER_01]: He's like, okay They start typing a sap rocky.
37:20
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like no John that different never don't or just different different a sap But yeah, it's more licensed music and ate it not the only license music we hear on the show But great entrance and a huge pop for these guys like obviously
37:34
[SPEAKER_01]: We are expected this time.
37:36
[SPEAKER_00]: It's also Tony Khan was quite smart in making this a Royal Rumble style match because you have Kofi, who is the really columnist of K-pop, but Kofi has never won a Rumble.
37:48
[SPEAKER_00]: So he always does these spots and never wins, but you get the Kofi spot in this and it actually pays off because they win this match.
37:56
[SPEAKER_00]: And when you three O's champions, I found it
38:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I found it peculiar how your champs, the good, the bad and a guapo, the bad in the hands and yeah, were eliminated before the end.
38:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I was thinking surely you have the final be like
38:26
[SPEAKER_00]: it kind of all made sense after like you have this big what we were we were going okay what what is the connection with swerve and the new day like swerve has been a despicable heal the last few times we've seen him new day you know power of positivity I know they had their failed heal run towards the end but
38:46
[SPEAKER_00]: isn't that like when you want to pair them with a baby face and then you had a couple of weeks go swears setting up that I'm bringing Mr. mystery partner and then everything kind of went quiet and then it was oh there's going to be multiple trios involved it's it's they were kind of dancing around what this trios thing was actually going to be and
39:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I kind of feel in that time, they realized that because they did sort of, you didn't really have that Swav Hangman interaction again.
39:17
[SPEAKER_00]: And they kind of, I felt downpied that on TV, the last couple of weeks.
39:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
39:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you know what I mean?
39:22
[SPEAKER_01]: But then when you had the Swav Hangman face to face in this match, hmm.
39:28
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was the first real, like, Wembley got pretty great.
39:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, okay, obviously, the reaction for new level coming out, but then the match was continuing.
39:36
[SPEAKER_01]: And then when you had the face to face.
39:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Swirvan Hangman, but they didn't try and do the three on, they probably didn't go on, you know?
39:43
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think leaving it where it was,
39:47
[SPEAKER_00]: defriders and Gabe left against them.
39:49
[SPEAKER_00]: It kind of told you, oh, okay, these guys are including Swirv, huge baby faces, but it just worked.
39:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Like the entrance, like you've got, I've always liked the kind of juxtaposition of Nana dancing around and Swirv just looking, stoic and mean and just slowly like walking down.
40:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
40:11
[SPEAKER_00]: And it works with the new day as well.
40:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, because they're all prompts and around dancing and just swell, looking cool, yeah.
40:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Look at that.
40:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Last year, we got the sword meme, right?
40:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Where he's like cross arm, looking good because he like helped, you know, the main event.
40:24
[SPEAKER_01]: It's kind of the same thing where he's like, look who I've brought here, right?
40:28
[SPEAKER_01]: So it almost baby faced him.
40:30
[SPEAKER_01]: And we were at the presser and he explained why.
40:35
[SPEAKER_01]: He didn't wanted to team with those guys.
40:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I loved it, and I think it was a great pairing there.
40:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, you can use the new level as a tag team and stuff going forward.
40:47
[SPEAKER_01]: But I thought there's such a cool moment.
40:50
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, the match was long.
40:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Probably not one of my favorite matches on the show, but the moment of having them out there, the moment of the tease of Swerve and Hangman, you could easily do the trio's rematch at, like,
41:02
[SPEAKER_01]: all out like the actual like three on three you could there's so many different tree I know we have the rascals match this week but there's so many
41:11
[SPEAKER_01]: hearings we can do with this new team here.
41:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I feel sometimes as well.
41:15
[SPEAKER_00]: It's, I, I think was J. P.O.
41:17
[SPEAKER_00]: is chatting to because he was, he's not a big fan of trio and he's like, what the fuck is this match?
41:22
[SPEAKER_00]: And I went J. P. It's, it's countdowns, entrances and surprises.
41:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
41:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, it's a stadium show.
41:30
[SPEAKER_00]: That's people, people love that.
41:31
[SPEAKER_00]: People love,
41:32
[SPEAKER_00]: counting down from 10 to 1 and or what was it?
41:36
[SPEAKER_00]: And then it goes the roulette wheel, which I thought was a nice touch.
41:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
41:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
41:39
[SPEAKER_00]: So the actual body of the match was not the best and over long, but it's still made for this awesome moment.
41:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Now was this supposed to be the royal redemption?
41:51
[SPEAKER_01]: You think that's where that came from?
41:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe.
41:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
41:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I would have like a royal rumble, but it
41:58
[SPEAKER_01]: a great like everyone already was in a good mood when you saw the new level come out and again us fans you you were quick the music I can't I still can't believe a wrestler uses future is a theme song that's pretty awesome just the crowd instantly knew to do the chat it fits with the music so whoever decided hey why don't we just use that music it it works perfectly so I can't wait to see what the new level
42:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess, especially at the presser, like, they just look like, yeah, they described it as, you know, when friends just drift apart that there's no like hatred or animosity towards anyone.
42:39
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just, ah, we don't, we don't hang out that much anymore.
42:42
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's kind of what they described their relationship with it.
42:46
[SPEAKER_00]: WWE and they, they were looking for new friends.
42:49
[SPEAKER_00]: They're looking to do some new things.
42:51
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think they were aware of like,
42:54
[SPEAKER_00]: They've got a lot more.
42:55
[SPEAKER_00]: They want to achieve in their career and, you know, they're towards, they're not towards the end of their career, but they're close to the end and they are the beginning.
43:03
[SPEAKER_00]: So this is the time to do it, but absolutely.
43:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm super excited to see, you know, we've seen other people sort of go to AEW who may be
43:14
[SPEAKER_00]: being in other promotions and things as well.
43:16
[SPEAKER_00]: But like, these guys, just, they were so WWE, so ingrained in WWE that it's kind of wild to see them.
43:24
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think in a stadium where you see these guys in big stadiums with big entrances.
43:28
[SPEAKER_01]: We were there as a man 35 for confirmation.
43:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so yeah, it was cool to see him get
43:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Get it back, you know, he did, uh, was a trouble in paradise.
43:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, is he allowed to use that name?
43:40
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, back in the day, could you use the same finishing moves?
43:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I don't know if there's a lot to move.
43:45
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if you can.
43:46
[SPEAKER_01]: What's enough?
43:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, trouble.
43:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Problem in.
43:48
[SPEAKER_01]: It's another word for a problem in paradise.
43:51
[SPEAKER_01]: A problem in.
43:53
[SPEAKER_00]: And happens.
43:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I think you're allowed to, yeah.
43:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think you're allowed to use it, but yeah, uh, we, we saw that
44:01
[SPEAKER_01]: really early.
44:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Right after going like, you know, we can't be living in the past time we've gone don't you agree with us?
44:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, shout out the new level.
44:10
[SPEAKER_01]: They're on it.
44:11
[SPEAKER_00]: We then had the rolling birds, if they were challenging the divine dominion for the AW Women's World Tag Team Championship.
44:23
[SPEAKER_01]: love the brawling birds, like obviously UK inspired gear kind of what Gary Spice, Ginger Spice sort of not quite as blatant, but they had it like on the sides, the union flag, and this was maybe like what 10 plus minutes, and it was kind of everything, I figured it would
44:49
[SPEAKER_01]: rain of terror they've just been crushing these like uh, tighting all over, you know, collision and dynamite and stuff.
44:55
[SPEAKER_01]: So they did a good job of setting up a team that, okay, it's UK.
45:01
[SPEAKER_01]: It's Wembley to over the top British stereotype character.
45:07
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think a big question was going in a, okay, a question people were talking about all weekend as Brits would be like, do you like the brawling birds?
45:14
[SPEAKER_01]: And mixed reaction from talking to a lot of people
45:18
[SPEAKER_01]: throughout the weekend.
45:19
[SPEAKER_01]: But I didn't think they got booed.
45:22
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't have a huge reaction, but I think London treated them fairly.
45:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I just find, and it was interesting hearing them in the presser because they're then not talking like their characters and their primos.
45:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Whereas, you know, when you hear Will and he's talking,
45:40
[SPEAKER_00]: He is like, brother and fuck, and all this anyway.
45:43
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, so it doesn't feel as put on and I think that's what's kind of disconnecting with me a little bit, but I like them as wrestlers.
45:51
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought this was fine.
45:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is,
45:55
[SPEAKER_00]: probably one of the more forgettable matches on this show wasn't bad by any means.
46:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I would like to see the feud continued though and I think, you know, an all-out give these like the street fight stipulate or something like that because it didn't necessarily feel like the the hostile I thought it was going to be between these four but I think they've definitely got it in them.
46:18
[SPEAKER_00]: But on such a big show like this and you've got a falls count anywhere match and you're going to have a main event like it's very bloody as well, both the men's and the women's yeah, it's you might not necessarily go that route with this match, but I'd run this back at all out and and throw some step on it.
46:38
[SPEAKER_01]: that they love the women's street fight.
46:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so why not, we've seen divine dominion do it.
46:44
[SPEAKER_01]: So I would rematch it at least at all out or something in that stipulation.
46:50
[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, shout out to the brawling birds, a pint and a fight.
46:54
[SPEAKER_00]: hell of an eye.
46:55
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we had the, uh, let's get this right.
46:58
[SPEAKER_00]: The continental challenge.
47:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I forgot that their finish is the heart attack.
47:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, two birds one stone.
47:05
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, you know, hitting the heart attack in Wembley, that was pretty cool.
47:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
47:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
47:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Good for that.
47:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, we had the continent, the only rest in continental challenge can't final, uh, also, obviously, for the, uh, what's it called the continental championship.
47:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, Nigel McGinnis.
47:24
[SPEAKER_00]: John Moxley in the final, Nigel having this, this ankle injury he's been working through through this tournament and Moxley being a sadistic man, just attacking this the whole time.
47:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Looking like Gollum with the one ring in this photo.
47:42
[SPEAKER_01]: His render for this is terrifying.
47:47
[SPEAKER_00]: two, but his eyes are rolled into his head like the Undertaker.
47:50
[SPEAKER_01]: And he's gripping that like, a hungry grip on that like never letting this title go, uh, yeah, very scary.
47:56
[SPEAKER_01]: The graphics in the arena are an stadium.
47:59
[SPEAKER_01]: We're so cool because you knew what match was on for people running back in the work to the washroom or snacks.
48:04
[SPEAKER_01]: You could see everywhere like, okay, this matches on.
48:06
[SPEAKER_01]: But just this giant picture of Marley looking
48:10
[SPEAKER_01]: terrifying, which is what he was going for, because he's John Moxley.
48:14
[SPEAKER_01]: You said Nigel had the like injured or leg that they were telling the story of Moxley then like ripping at the tape of it and like everything.
48:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
48:24
[SPEAKER_01]: and then trying to like choke him with it and then nod or choke his like stinky foot tape all in your mouth and you had him like oh that's he just loves it doesn't it.
48:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to go back and watch this one because I feel there's like little details I've missed but I I thought this was really really great at it.
48:41
[SPEAKER_01]: It was really cool seeing like I know going into this.
48:45
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the one great I was still have about this now the match was was good, but the story I do think if you just didn't do this tournament and made it like the story of Nigel and mocked.
48:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, just a way more interesting story.
49:03
[SPEAKER_00]: do the tournament but tell the story of not letting you.
49:07
[SPEAKER_00]: You can make it obvious Nigel's winning thing, but they were doing it like he had this ankle injury, but I wanted more.
49:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I think setting it up with Mox being the one in the ring on Dynamite.
49:20
[SPEAKER_00]: being like, I'm open all challenges, let's do a tournament all end to myself in the tournament.
49:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to fight, let's go, Nigel stepping up from the desk and being, why want this?
49:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Like this could be the last match of my career, the last run of my career, who knows when we're going back to Wendley Stadium.
49:38
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the continental championship is kind of like,
49:42
[SPEAKER_00]: the sort of spiritual ancestor of the ROH pure title, which Nigel, that was his title, you know, I think there's that kind of element, and I think just passionate promos from Nigel, saying about what this means to him, what Wembley means to him, what facing John Moxie would mean to him.
50:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I think you could have probably done the same
50:05
[SPEAKER_00]: matches and build that they had just with a bit more emphasis to make this match feel more special rather than just relying, well, the Brits will cheer for Nigel because it's nice.
50:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, which it did feel a little bit.
50:17
[SPEAKER_01]: It felt like you planned this out months ago and in your head you're like, yeah, this is going to be this story, but then you forgot to do the story.
50:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Like you didn't it go out and do it.
50:28
[SPEAKER_01]: It was it was a bunch of people in this tournament that you just didn't
50:33
[SPEAKER_01]: being the singles man against, against moxley.
50:36
[SPEAKER_01]: So the one, the one story going into this show, I was down on this cup thing, because it's just, it would've been so much more engaging if you just had Nigel be like, yo, it's all this talk about will go into Wembley, got the brawling birds,
50:50
[SPEAKER_01]: I need one more shot.
50:51
[SPEAKER_01]: And if I can't do this anymore, maybe I shouldn't do this anymore.
50:54
[SPEAKER_01]: And like, anything, and instead it was like, yeah, I won this thing and he's injured.
50:58
[SPEAKER_01]: So what does that tell me about jungle boy and Kyle O'Reilly and every other midcard or that didn't win?
51:04
[SPEAKER_01]: That the commentator with a injured foot managed to be the one to do this.
51:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Better.
51:09
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just like, I like the match, don't get me wrong.
51:12
[SPEAKER_01]: But I still was like,
51:14
[SPEAKER_01]: this story was right there on a plate.
51:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I wrote this and you didn't manage to do that.
51:19
[SPEAKER_01]: So this I imagine this he might wrestle again because he didn't seem like I was expecting him to take his boots off.
51:26
[SPEAKER_01]: After the match and you didn't so we'll probably see him again but really cool like you got the the Tower of London spot you got the was he the Shankley was his the London London
51:35
[SPEAKER_01]: dungeon, right?
51:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
51:37
[SPEAKER_01]: No headbats to the post.
51:38
[SPEAKER_00]: No headbats, no bones and no bones and no bones.
51:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, yeah, there was a moment in the match that didn't quite catch and it's on rewatch it was pretty cool.
51:47
[SPEAKER_00]: It's when Mox has in like the the bully, the bully choke.
51:51
[SPEAKER_00]: And and our friend Rob was like, oh, he was biting him.
51:54
[SPEAKER_00]: He wasn't.
51:55
[SPEAKER_00]: He he pushes his head like Nigel.
51:58
[SPEAKER_00]: That's his hands behind his head and pushes it down.
52:01
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's like biting the arm with his chin and his neck, which like, you know, think squeezing the bicep that then made mocks release the hold.
52:10
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was really smart.
52:12
[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, I thought this, uh, this was, was great and actually a perfect sort of
52:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Dylistic match-up between these two and Nigel was looked great out there and they did the Brett Bulldog like finish like they did it was a kick out.
52:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they did the like Bulldog That was flat.
52:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, sorry.
52:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like we should down on him.
52:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so that was a great near fall But yeah, you know what the match was good and
52:40
[SPEAKER_01]: I just, the one thing, I don't think I was buying Nigel Beating Marx, which is fine.
52:44
[SPEAKER_01]: He should, he's a comedy.
52:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel if it was just, if it was for the cop and maybe the cop.
52:51
[SPEAKER_00]: makes you no more content or something.
52:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I'd have bought him winning the cup, but not the title.
52:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's like we already have too many titles.
52:58
[SPEAKER_01]: And now we have more cups and stuff too.
53:00
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, all right, get in a little car and believe it, but still.
53:03
[SPEAKER_00]: And on match, then we had Kyle Fletcher defending the title, the international championship.
53:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's get that correct.
53:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, great entrances from all three guys.
53:21
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, these three are some of our favorites to watch to catch to look and like a G with his demon mask is only mask.
53:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Kyle Fletcher with some anime inspired outfit and entrance won't be the the only one on this show.
53:34
[SPEAKER_01]: And then O'Cotta just always looking like a million.
53:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I love that song.
53:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I do.
53:39
[SPEAKER_01]: I do.
53:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
53:41
[SPEAKER_00]: It grows on me more and more.
53:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's great.
53:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
53:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
53:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I like it.
53:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I was rocking out to it as well.
53:46
[SPEAKER_01]: This was great.
53:47
[SPEAKER_01]: They did the Shawn Michaels Triple H intro, where Kyle right away, super kicks, Ocada, and then Ocada's a Takeshisa O.
53:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so it's like that then this was really fun like the back-and-forth of all three of them There was like these crazy sequences where they're like all three of them are like German soup like singing each other and doing these pinning You'll some bridges and stuff you also had Kyle like go back and forth between being Protoshida and doing some of their their tag moves together and then he's like, oh no, I'm with a card doing protocol to stuff I
54:24
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, the rainmaker ducks into laying out your partner, the screwdriver, all that.
54:30
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to rewatch because this was when we moved down to the floor to try and get a bit of a bit of a bit of view and a different perspective.
54:39
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think I lost some of it because of that, but yeah, like these three put together some incredible sequences.
54:47
[SPEAKER_00]: it felt I think of all the matches on this show.
54:50
[SPEAKER_00]: This one was the one that felt a little short-changed for me.
54:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, considering, you know, the complaint of that trio's thing it went 40 minutes.
54:59
[SPEAKER_01]: This only went 17.
55:01
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think I wanted like, kind of.
55:03
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I could watch these to be wrestled maybe for like an hour straight and they'd probably never bore us.
55:08
[SPEAKER_01]: But 17 minutes was not enough for these three like killer competitors, honestly.
55:15
[SPEAKER_01]: That green buster spot.
55:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, like, man, it was great.
55:19
[SPEAKER_01]: I love the finish.
55:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Once again,
55:22
[SPEAKER_01]: the storytelling of this the Don Calus family and say what you will but it's Okada yet again like kind of sneaking in there.
55:31
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's he it's a pleasure.
55:32
[SPEAKER_01]: It's the brainbuster to catch a and then Okada runs in hits him with the ring maker and pins him.
55:37
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Calus made Fletcher sort of strap up Okada and hold up his arm after and he did.
55:43
[SPEAKER_00]: So are we getting that match up all out or are we dragging that out even more?
55:49
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess we're gonna have to play this out even further.
55:52
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, down the line, fletcher versus Osprey one more time.
55:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, maybe I'm getting ahead of ourselves here, but maybe fletcher is the guy to take it from will, like months and months from now.
56:06
[SPEAKER_00]: But I can definitely see that.
56:07
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that's something you revisit at some point, but,
56:11
[SPEAKER_00]: I kind of feel flesh is moving to baby face now and and think he could be a really good baby face.
56:18
[SPEAKER_01]: We've done had the pleasure of meeting him a few times and also maybe the best dressed in it.
56:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah.
56:24
[SPEAKER_01]: He's like, I know he doesn't wear the socks with his lemon peppers.
56:27
[SPEAKER_01]: He was the worst dress at one point.
56:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
56:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Well now you remember like as soon as he shaped his hair and it's like, oh no, I know how to dress.
56:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
56:34
[SPEAKER_00]: He's not a baggy jeans.
56:36
[SPEAKER_01]: So the one major critique from the show, which think that if this is why I'm one big, big argument or a big issue, I just wanted these guys to wrestle for like 10 more minutes.
56:49
[SPEAKER_01]: I felt like of all the matches that went long, this one should have got like.
56:54
[SPEAKER_01]: way longer.
56:55
[SPEAKER_01]: So run this matchback at any time ever again, but I do want to see Fletcher O'Cotta one on one.
57:01
[SPEAKER_01]: So maybe we do go to that at all out or something down the line.
57:05
[SPEAKER_01]: But to cash to as well, not sure what to do with him coming out of this.
57:10
[SPEAKER_01]: He lost, but we can easily slot him into some other stuff.
57:13
[SPEAKER_01]: And I would like to, I know he's triple contract wrestler with DDT and
57:24
[SPEAKER_01]: I still think this match was good.
57:25
[SPEAKER_01]: One of my favorites on the show.
57:26
[SPEAKER_01]: Just I was like, why did you stop?
57:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he's keep going like bletch it to Kesta and Okada are so good.
57:34
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah
57:36
[SPEAKER_01]: wrestle again, do re-match it, do an Iron Man triple threat arrow match, I'd watch it.
57:42
[SPEAKER_00]: We then have the men's casino gorn match picking off with under a day, L-E-D-L-O and M-J-F. We had 11 people in this match, I believe.
57:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, with you had champ coming out, speed ball coming out, uh, trying to think some other people who were in there.
58:01
[SPEAKER_00]: You had Commander who was identified as Mystico, and then did a crazy, rope walk, moon salt, and just incredible then.
58:10
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like justing, uh, uh, uh, shout out ECW Heat Wave 2000, check out on our Patreon.
58:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, Justin Roberts then re-enouncing him as Commander, and then Mystico coming out,
58:24
[SPEAKER_00]: You guessed it.
58:26
[SPEAKER_00]: It's Mr.
58:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Gut.
58:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
58:28
[SPEAKER_00]: The Brits knew the song.
58:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I was more so than like some other events we've been to where we've heard it.
58:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I was shocked.
58:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, Dalas, which has a much more Latino population than... You think there was more people last year singing it?
58:44
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I'm saying Dalas has more Latino people.
58:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I know, living there.
58:48
[SPEAKER_00]: But you thought that this, they were singing it more.
58:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought so, yeah.
58:52
[SPEAKER_01]: I was trying to.
58:53
[SPEAKER_01]: I know that like the way of the song,
58:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I was just hearing that, duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh
59:25
[SPEAKER_01]: when Jericho got one of the biggest pops of the whole show.
59:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because sometimes the internet, Twitter, and all that ain't real life, because Jericho is a goddamn much.
59:35
[SPEAKER_00]: uh... he was so over and we were saying a sign you could tell he was happy i know he was at abbey road earlier in the day it it was called to see him he's kind of on his his last he knows it seems like he knows his role yeah you know like uh... which is fine and continuing the champ of feud uh... i i what i liked with this match as well is they more so than any of these casino governments and we've had a few now
1:00:00
[SPEAKER_00]: They really played up the random time interval element of it, which meant you had some people would just run out to know music, like suddenly Nick Wing hits a poison around out of nowhere.
1:00:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Out of nowhere, Mark Davis is suddenly in the ring just...
1:00:17
[SPEAKER_00]: pile driving everyone.
1:00:19
[SPEAKER_00]: And I thought it gave it this really fun energy.
1:00:22
[SPEAKER_00]: It allowed you to do champers big entrance, but because it's random intervals, Jericho's music just start.
1:00:28
[SPEAKER_00]: So they're crawling, like Jericho's knocking him down during his song and all that.
1:00:32
[SPEAKER_00]: These are, these are ways fun.
1:00:34
[SPEAKER_00]: As I said, like, they got rid of the countdowns for this one, but surprise entrance is like people love.
1:00:41
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was surprised with the winner.
1:00:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I was expecting either a kind of
1:00:47
[SPEAKER_00]: debut of maybe a earlier dragon earlier or mjf to win this but on dryday winning this yeah mjf hits the heat seeker and then on dryday came in with his is rolling back elbow and sneaking the win Yeah, you know on dryday versus Osprey could be in scene that we got to down the line so maybe we maybe we do go to that one day, but
1:01:14
[SPEAKER_01]: I was shocked that it wasn't MJF just simply because having a heel with this kind of thing over the head of a champion kind of can tell the story.
1:01:25
[SPEAKER_01]: But Andrade has been very impressive and gotten super over in the last few months.
1:01:30
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm happy with that.
1:01:31
[SPEAKER_01]: He got a big win.
1:01:33
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just I have an issue with
1:01:43
[SPEAKER_01]: He's posing at the end of the match because he just won.
1:01:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And he's literally holding up his national title in one arm.
1:01:51
[SPEAKER_01]: And then his other freehand, he's ghost-titling his waist.
1:01:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I'm gonna be champion.
1:01:55
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, brother, you already are championed.
1:01:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Did you not hear the new level at the press?
1:02:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I know.
1:02:00
[SPEAKER_00]: You're too fed-frame man.
1:02:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, it's just, you do, you do not deny these people wanting more.
1:02:06
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just like, anything's possible in AEW.
1:02:13
[SPEAKER_01]: and why even have it on him, like, if you're gonna do this thing.
1:02:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, I, like, this is a casino going up.
1:02:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I've got a casino's, I've won, like, you know, I went 200 bucks.
1:02:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:02:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I could be happy with that and walk away, sure.
1:02:27
[SPEAKER_00]: You know what, I want,
1:02:28
[SPEAKER_00]: more than some national title.
1:02:31
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's why I'm broke.
1:02:33
[SPEAKER_01]: There was some cool spots in this imagine Nick Wayne really showing up speed ball doing some crazy stuff.
1:02:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Champa biting his toes didn't know you were the freak like that.
1:02:43
[SPEAKER_01]: There was some really cool stuff in this match.
1:02:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I do think people expected an earlier debut, maybe that kind of
1:02:50
[SPEAKER_00]: the finish coming, you're like, oh, yeah, I heard a few people be like, oh, I was expecting earlier or shameless on this show.
1:02:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I, I don't think it needed it.
1:03:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I think you can.
1:03:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Spread like I think we had the the Brick Baker return we had the we have a quite a few so you have the you level yeah like I think you can spread these things out a bit and if you don't necessarily like the alien news only came out what a week ago and it was already planned and like yeah Tony Collins saying the presser with the new level it's like you know you have like he he does long-term book and stuff like that you have these plans in mind
1:03:32
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, I've got to figure out how you roll again.
1:03:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I wasn't expecting a new level to be available right now.
1:03:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I wasn't expecting an earlier or a shameless or whatever.
1:03:42
[SPEAKER_00]: So I...
1:03:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I was expecting earlier in this, but I wasn't simply disappointed that we didn't get it.
1:03:48
[SPEAKER_01]: No, yeah, it totally, like you can't just bring in people just because like also these, all these characters and wrestlers have been working their asses off into to earn a spot in this big huge show.
1:03:59
[SPEAKER_01]: So it, I was okay with not having him, I still expect him to show up in eight.
1:04:05
[SPEAKER_00]: I went 100%.
1:04:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Kyle Pletchrialia, Takeshta Ilya, I'll take my all spring money Daniel sin versus Ilya.
1:04:14
[SPEAKER_01]: it would it would be cool.
1:04:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Jungle boy got a huge Crimea River champ.
1:04:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, remember the last time we were at one
1:04:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, someone near us is like real glasses, like yes, yes, we all got it.
1:04:26
[SPEAKER_00]: We all got it.
1:04:27
[SPEAKER_00]: We all got the song.
1:04:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Pretty fun.
1:04:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Got it, Matt.
1:04:30
[SPEAKER_01]: And it'll be interesting to see where we go with our driving down the line.
1:04:33
[SPEAKER_00]: We then had cage and coat defending the AEW tag team championship against the young bucks.
1:04:41
[SPEAKER_00]: We wanted to get in a good position for this match and all boy we did.
1:04:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we were walking around the whole stadium just seeing the different sites and certain areas.
1:04:52
[SPEAKER_01]: You could because of the Wembley has that like missing roof, the top off.
1:04:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Some of the sound can escape from the floor.
1:04:58
[SPEAKER_01]: But when you're in the actual bowl, it's really, really loud.
1:05:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I mentioned Jericho got a really big pop.
1:05:04
[SPEAKER_01]: So did my other Canadian brethren, Edgen Christian, Copen Christian, C and C. The Brits love.
1:05:11
[SPEAKER_00]: the brits love the kid it common well maybe hey he's he's ticked off that bucket list now he's he's got one one venue left but right and let's see if let's see if Tokyo or as loud as Arena Mexico and Wembley Stadium because yeah people people love singing that song yeah people really look like i actually saw a lot of edge shirts and coax shirts throughout the night and the day leading up to it so i was like damn okay like the Canadian
1:05:38
[SPEAKER_01]: they're over here across the line.
1:05:40
[SPEAKER_01]: I felt I felt the love at the Canadian brethren Lake Ontario forever, by the way, Lake Ontario forever.
1:05:47
[SPEAKER_01]: This was really cool.
1:05:48
[SPEAKER_01]: The the entrance of Edge cope obviously the song in the singing.
1:05:53
[SPEAKER_01]: You could see it was emotional as as he always kind of is especially in the Twilight.
1:05:57
[SPEAKER_01]: It was career here.
1:05:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Just these stadium singing you could see he was not taken that too lightly.
1:06:04
[SPEAKER_01]: He was like, thank you.
1:06:05
[SPEAKER_01]: And then Christian comes out
1:06:08
[SPEAKER_01]: dick as always.
1:06:10
[SPEAKER_01]: And then the box with some really cool video package.
1:06:13
[SPEAKER_01]: The first video package that really stuck out to me with the box and showing their whole career and PWG and a bunch of indie places that they wrestled including.
1:06:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a little bit of a wears wall though on their tights.
1:06:27
[SPEAKER_01]: It looked like you could see Kevin Owens, steam.
1:06:31
[SPEAKER_01]: There was all these things on
1:06:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was really cool and set up for this, this dream match that we've been waiting to watch this one for a long time.
1:06:44
[SPEAKER_01]: We've seen the heartys and the bucks we've seen.
1:06:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen the Dudley's versus the bucks as well at an indie show.
1:06:50
[SPEAKER_01]: So this one was when I wanted to tick off my list
1:06:54
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what, it lived up to the hype.
1:06:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like into it.
1:06:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Tangent hope still at this point in this their career are delivering and hanging in there with the box.
1:07:01
[SPEAKER_00]: And you gotta give it to them, honestly.
1:07:03
[SPEAKER_00]: There was some cool like, like, cool backs.
1:07:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, you had the, was it Christian with the twist of fate?
1:07:09
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you had a 3D from them, like, little cool backs.
1:07:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:07:13
[SPEAKER_00]: We know that the box lovers, well, they've been doing the tributes in the past.
1:07:18
[SPEAKER_00]: and what Christian with a win the UK right now.
1:07:23
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm not going to say wrench.
1:07:24
[SPEAKER_00]: A spanner in his cost, a spanner in the works, a spanner in the works exactly.
1:07:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
1:07:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Also Nick, is it Nick Jackson too big?
1:07:35
[SPEAKER_01]: paperview tag matches in a row where he does something where you think something's wrong.
1:07:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you think he's messed up, but no, it's all part of the story which allowed them to like hit the that there's a low blow, it was to fade a 3D.
1:07:48
[SPEAKER_01]: There was some really cool back and forth.
1:07:51
[SPEAKER_01]: One of my favorite spots though, I think edge.
1:07:54
[SPEAKER_01]: keep saying that I don't know how the commentary does it because I it's hard for me, but cope goes to like spear one of them off the apron, like you know, is running spear almost like the big East beer, right?
1:08:05
[SPEAKER_01]: And instead of eating it, I think Matt Jackson's like, no, I'm not taking that and jumps and hits like a flying cutter to Christian on the floor.
1:08:12
[SPEAKER_01]: And Ed, it cope was like, what what does happen?
1:08:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought this was a really fun match.
1:08:17
[SPEAKER_01]: You had some
1:08:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Nearfalls where I thought it would be over and it continued.
1:08:21
[SPEAKER_01]: But you mentioned the spanner, you will.
1:08:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Christian did cheat to win and like, unquote, wasn't aware of it.
1:08:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Coat wasn't aware of it.
1:08:30
[SPEAKER_01]: That can obviously play into the story of the baby face, kind of heel dynamic.
1:08:35
[SPEAKER_01]: But I thought this, I thought this did live up.
1:08:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought this was a perfect, it didn't say it's welcome.
1:08:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Everyone kind of looked good.
1:08:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Coat and Christian could hang with the box.
1:08:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I really enjoyed this match.
1:08:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:08:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, so now we have, uh, coping cage still champions.
1:08:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, I do.
1:08:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I do see another just one and one iteration of this at some point.
1:08:58
[SPEAKER_00]: You got a two on two, but you know what I got to do the ladder match.
1:09:01
[SPEAKER_00]: You do, but, um, what just just about versus if it would be.
1:09:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, the one thing, okay, for months.
1:09:10
[SPEAKER_01]: I know ourselves and probably a lot of others were like okay all that all ends are going to be this big like TLC kind of triangle ladder mag kind of thing bucks FTR all that sort of thing
1:09:22
[SPEAKER_01]: after the match, all the teams come out.
1:09:25
[SPEAKER_01]: And you had audience, people chatting like TLC because it just, you just assumed like TLC.
1:09:30
[SPEAKER_00]: TLC chance, tag team resting chance.
1:09:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, this was like a, if felt like a statement right here and they're in the press that we iterate that of like, look at our tag division right now.
1:09:41
[SPEAKER_00]: You had machine guns, you had the new level, had FTR returning,
1:09:46
[SPEAKER_00]: and read the new Rev Pro Tag Champions.
1:09:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Who else was it?
1:09:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, and Copenhagen the Bucks.
1:09:52
[SPEAKER_00]: So, yeah, I think we're going to have every iteration of this.
1:09:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't see Cagent Hoats tag run any ending anytime soon.
1:10:01
[SPEAKER_00]: When you look at this visually, I shouldn't.
1:10:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I do.
1:10:05
[SPEAKER_00]: I know they were trying to get that Detroit pop, but I kind of question why debut machine guns in Detroit, they should on a collision when they got a good reaction last night.
1:10:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, you came over.
1:10:19
[SPEAKER_00]: They are DNA.
1:10:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
1:10:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
1:10:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, so like having them, you know, back to back surprises or then coming out, FTR returning would have
1:10:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I just think book and wise made a bit more sense, but we still a really cool moment to see all these tag teams.
1:10:35
[SPEAKER_01]: I just don't want Tony Khan to do the thing he did for a few years in a row of, oh look, all in is our big show of the year?
1:10:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, all out, you get the TLC match.
1:10:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:10:46
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, no, I shouldn't have just done it maybe here.
1:10:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Look, I love seeing Copa Christian verse of the box, two of like literally two of my favorite tag teams.
1:10:55
[SPEAKER_01]: of all time and I got to see them face.
1:10:57
[SPEAKER_01]: But I do want to see this crazy, you know, cluster bucket of a TLC or a metal, what a DNA call it, metal mayhem or whatever, just a ladder match if you want to call it that.
1:11:08
[SPEAKER_01]: But any iteration of these tag teams sounds great.
1:11:12
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, we're we're going to be eating good in the tag division for the next little while.
1:11:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Very excited, but it's
1:11:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Then we had the false count anywhere match.
1:11:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Kevin Knight defending the TNT championship against Garby Allen, with a really cool Kevin Knight entrance here, I thought, with the dancers and his new music and Tron looks really cool.
1:11:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Like the set looked, this is their best set for.
1:11:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Wembley.
1:11:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I'd say you didn't look like way better than that first one we went to which just packed in the people but was pretty basic I thought the stage looked beautiful one the way it was all lit up for the jet look look really cool here and then this was really the point where
1:11:57
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I think the start of Cajun Coat match, I feel like it was like dark dust like getting dark.
1:12:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah This was now night time and lights go out and you see though that's flying and I fell starts to play and Darby just skateboarding all the way down that long ramp.
1:12:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought it it looked really cool felt really atmospheric and Yeah, it's matched with pretty nuts
1:12:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I know, I second that the Derby entrance with the way the sky and everything.
1:12:25
[SPEAKER_01]: What we were still on the floor at this point for this entrance and you're like, well, some breeze going in the room.
1:12:31
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that theme song is a banger as well.
1:12:34
[SPEAKER_01]: But I like Jets music.
1:12:37
[SPEAKER_01]: It's definitely a rip of like two old school night.
1:12:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Like a jazzy song or is it two like they mixed a few old rap songs to kind of, I guess the inspiration of it.
1:12:49
[SPEAKER_01]: I think everyone going into, we were talking to like strangers going into the Wembley.
1:12:54
[SPEAKER_01]: People are like, oh, and Darby, I kept joking with every person on that.
1:12:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Is Darby jumping off the arches?
1:12:58
[SPEAKER_01]: It's Darby doing something so crazy.
1:13:01
[SPEAKER_01]: He did do some things crazy.
1:13:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Thankfully, he didn't do anything that insane.
1:13:05
[SPEAKER_01]: because a year ago, me and you watched him descend from the top of the stadium, so we know he is actually insane, but there was handcuffs, they were getting kinky, the Don Calus family, and then I'll heal, they'll sting, stun, steep board, and whatever you want to call him, he comes out, he tries to make the save, but
1:13:25
[SPEAKER_01]: It's wrestling.
1:13:26
[SPEAKER_01]: The number of games, they're too much for Sting Junior and Darby, so the lights go out.
1:13:33
[SPEAKER_01]: And we all know what that means.
1:13:35
[SPEAKER_01]: The Mac Alica hits an Outcomes Old Man Sting.
1:13:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I love the old man's sting gray hair.
1:13:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Look, it almost makes him look.
1:13:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Scaria, like what mystical almost, you know, like this.
1:13:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Just like this, like, yeah, it's like the ghost of sting.
1:13:53
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know, comes out.
1:13:54
[SPEAKER_00]: He, the Phantom in the depths of the, the, the, the, of Wembley stadium just gets risen just.
1:14:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Once a year at all in, he rises from the dead to help his son out.
1:14:10
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it's like the crow.
1:14:11
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like literally like, it's nice.
1:14:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I love it.
1:14:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Look, we went to Stingham retirement and we'll never say no to Stingham up up one more time.
1:14:18
[SPEAKER_01]: I know he keeps saying, I'm trying to retire the Facebook, but they're like, bro, the people still, I would say this was the Jeff Jarrett pop of the show.
1:14:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's Stingham.
1:14:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, it's TNA.
1:14:30
[SPEAKER_00]: It's TNA as well.
1:14:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I didn't even think of that, right?
1:14:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, the crowd love it.
1:14:35
[SPEAKER_00]: You've got Metallica going, you know, we were talking.
1:14:38
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, okay, things coming out and we go, wait, didn't they do that last time at Wembley?
1:14:43
[SPEAKER_01]: And he was using the first match, right?
1:14:46
[SPEAKER_01]: The one with sting was a tag team match.
1:14:48
[SPEAKER_00]: There was tagting coffin match to the first one.
1:14:50
[SPEAKER_00]: And the second one bleep was the coffin match with Jack Perry, where sting does exactly this.
1:14:55
[SPEAKER_00]: It comes out and helps him after the match.
1:14:57
[SPEAKER_00]: But here you've got the added wrinkle of Steve board and junior there.
1:15:03
[SPEAKER_00]: And then doing a call back to,
1:15:06
[SPEAKER_00]: A match we were at at a just a random dynamite.
1:15:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't remember where it was, where they were against Jericon Guevara.
1:15:13
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know, Derby's climbing the ladder and Stingo's no son.
1:15:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I've got this.
1:15:20
[SPEAKER_00]: And now you had that flip around with Stingo climbing the ladder.
1:15:24
[SPEAKER_00]: and his son, no dad, I got this, yeah, the dive there, but man, this, this Darby Allen like coffin drop off the, off the set off the scaffolding, yeah, I feel like you could count to three the tying he's floating.
1:15:40
[SPEAKER_00]: down.
1:15:41
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, normally it's a bit of a spoon.
1:15:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:15:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Where is this was, uh, it was look very readable.
1:15:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:15:48
[SPEAKER_01]: You just see this like falling man.
1:15:51
[SPEAKER_01]: And it was very like Shane McManus, very Jeff Hardy.
1:15:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Like he is, uh, he is, he is that guy.
1:15:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:15:57
[SPEAKER_01]: He's been that guy.
1:15:58
[SPEAKER_01]: But it's, it's crazy to see he's still doing these insane stunts.
1:16:02
[SPEAKER_01]: He hits the coffin drop off this like set the stage.
1:16:06
[SPEAKER_01]: And then he gets up and he's like, that's not enough.
1:16:08
[SPEAKER_01]: They put the jet on a stretcher and then a nice call back to double or nothing.
1:16:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:16:13
[SPEAKER_01]: We were at where he then jumps off the stage to the stretcher.
1:16:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Look like he crushed his legs and his.
1:16:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, and then he bins him because it's false count anywhere so honestly a really fun match We knew it would be exactly exactly what this shown a show like this needs at this time Yeah, in the show you've got your two main events coming up but just a wild again entrances surprises stunts just mayhem like really fun and
1:16:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought like at the presser, Darby Allen, like just a different guy from when he he started in this company and he talked about that like feeling insecure and finding himself and that's he says this TNT championship means more to me than the world title because this is when I first felt like I really belonged.
1:17:06
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought he came across so engaging and like less
1:17:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's school shooter.
1:17:15
[SPEAKER_00]: He didn't let us weird like just I thought he came with so natural in that in that press.
1:17:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I was I was really impressed by him.
1:17:23
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what marriage does.
1:17:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, maybe he just got to find someone to hold you down and so yeah.
1:17:28
[SPEAKER_00]: And saying absolutely he wants to be in a tag team with Steve Bonn.
1:17:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I got to ask him a question because I love that spot.
1:17:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I I all we were at that dynamite.
1:17:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we were really, we have some crazy video from that Hamilton Dynamite, but
1:17:49
[SPEAKER_01]: I asked I got to ask Darby like hey like what a what goes into your psyche yourself up from doing these insane stats because he did not want but to Yeah in this match and be how did you psych up things some to do that spot and he clearly loved this question because he gave me this great answer and basically says that he's been training Sting son and how crazy is that the full circle
1:18:14
[SPEAKER_01]: moment there that it was the revolution maps that really gave in the bug he'd never had any interest in wrestling yeah and that's crazy uh it was just great to hear and he basically he sounded like Darby was the one who came up with that spot and he he was like you better fucking jump it's like he's like you're doing it you're dad did this at 62 you're doing that yeah
1:18:39
[SPEAKER_01]: I love Darby's just an asian and then he did answer my question of like how he psychs himself because like think like how do you do this day and day of you know putting your body on the line obviously professional like stuntman at almost but he said like
1:18:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, it's me doing this or staring at four walls, we'll be in a dishwasher and I'd like to live my life with the type of opportunity.
1:19:01
[SPEAKER_01]: So bless and be that was that was pretty incredible, but sting pop at Wembley like these these people lost their mind.
1:19:09
[SPEAKER_01]: So
1:19:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, awesome.
1:19:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Then Willow Nightingale versus Mercedes Monet, the AW Women's Championship.
1:19:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Another big entrance is here.
1:19:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Willow apparently this was narrated by Will Washington's daughter, her little bioteal talking about the, you know, the little girl who was told you'll never be able to do this.
1:19:31
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't been in, you don't belong.
1:19:33
[SPEAKER_00]: uh, really really nice video package for her, uh, big, the Sadie's Monet entrance as well, and, uh,
1:19:43
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, if you told me what match is going to get blood first, I would have probably, you know, bet on, you know, John Knoxley's got a match on that with Nigel, we've got a, yeah, we've got a full count any where match with a not-case Diabialin, maybe that will have the blood.
1:20:02
[SPEAKER_01]: It was bleeding a lot from the back of his head, probably from one of those right, yes, but you couldn't see it on his face, but no, it was pretty early in this match.
1:20:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you sure you watched it, right?
1:20:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Mercedes like you fucking idiot.
1:20:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's one of my favorite wrestlers ever I'm like, hey, when did like what was the exact moment?
1:20:23
[SPEAKER_01]: She then was kind of like she was teasing But yeah, but yeah, David got to ask her question.
1:20:28
[SPEAKER_01]: They hey, how did you bust your nose and said didn't you watch the fucking match?
1:20:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I'm on it.
1:20:32
[SPEAKER_00]: It was flickering.
1:20:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
1:20:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Mercedes got this like what ballerina, type, yeah, sir, entrance, and then willow.
1:20:39
[SPEAKER_01]: I couldn't understand if it was going for like a Madonna thing with the like shooting out confetti out your your movies, but it was, it was pretty funny and pretty epic that.
1:20:50
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, if I guess fits her, her fun, smiley character and everything, uh, this, this match was great.
1:20:57
[SPEAKER_01]: This was so, I think this was even better than I expected it to be.
1:21:02
[SPEAKER_00]: I, like, for me, you know, whenever there's a, a full horse win conversation, I'd like to,
1:21:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I know, don't compare, like, all four fantastic and have been in their own, right?
1:21:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
1:21:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
1:21:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Mercedes, for me, though, she is just like, when it sees big, like, matches, she just turns it on and...
1:21:23
[SPEAKER_00]: like I love the Tony Storm match last year.
1:21:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I really love that my world matched pretty recently and this just we've seen her tie it up with well over this is what they're fourth time.
1:21:34
[SPEAKER_00]: I think and she is so so good.
1:21:38
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the the little thing she does well and I always thought like she
1:21:44
[SPEAKER_00]: a little bit of size in a good way recently, but I've always thought even when she was quite tiny and she just get ragged old around.
1:21:54
[SPEAKER_00]: She's got this really believable mean streak to her and it it's the things in between the moves she's she ourselves at and you know in this you've got a bit of a gift of storytelling with Willows legit, injured and really Mercedes is attacking
1:22:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I really love this match and there there was an unfortunate finish to this match because it at least from out.
1:22:23
[SPEAKER_00]: I haven't rewatched it but from our vantage point it looked like Aubrey may be thought there was a tap.
1:22:31
[SPEAKER_00]: before it actually happened, because we were saying, you know, we do the NXT show.
1:22:35
[SPEAKER_00]: We've been following NXT for years.
1:22:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I've watched Sasha, thanks Mercedes for, like, some rabbit, like, and we do a show called Wasnex, and we've been watching her right now in her, and it's the Iron Woman match where, you know, Sasha is mocking the soup fan, but is he in front row?
1:22:54
[SPEAKER_00]: And then she's got the bank statement in on,
1:22:58
[SPEAKER_00]: on daily and Bailey's got an injured wrist and she's stamping her on the hand during the back here.
1:23:06
[SPEAKER_00]: And that was clearly going to be the finish of this match.
1:23:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:23:10
[SPEAKER_00]: The bell rang just as she started stamping.
1:23:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:23:13
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think it was there was Aubrey.
1:23:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Aubrey just thought she saw the tap when she did or something, but a really unfortunate blemish, but didn't
1:23:26
[SPEAKER_00]: on a 9.36 on cage match, which is incredible.
1:23:32
[SPEAKER_01]: I really love this match.
1:23:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, honestly, I think I even liked this more than we were at all in last year in Mercedes and Tony Stark.
1:23:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, amazing match.
1:23:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't give me wrong.
1:23:40
[SPEAKER_01]: One of my favorite AW women's matches that I've seen.
1:23:43
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I like this one just a little bit more.
1:23:45
[SPEAKER_01]: The one thing is the finish, because we have not watched this match back yet.
1:23:50
[SPEAKER_01]: And I know that I had asked some friends who were watching at home.
1:23:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, how did that finish come across when they were like, not good.
1:23:56
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was like, okay, interesting.
1:23:57
[SPEAKER_01]: So Aubrey, I watched her at Mystery Wrestling quite a few times.
1:24:02
[SPEAKER_01]: If she wasn't so busy becoming, was it attack 24-7 champion?
1:24:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe she, where was she, where is she an NXT Rift?
1:24:12
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going like, I wasn't even sure if it was all be calling it because she loves it.
1:24:16
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, essentially throwing in the towel will hit her.
1:24:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, I couldn't have thought that because it's like she saw what she was going to do to the hand.
1:24:23
[SPEAKER_00]: And she's like, I have to call this off.
1:24:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, I'll have to rewatch it.
1:24:28
[SPEAKER_00]: But.
1:24:28
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't play it like I, Aubrey, you know, is usually, usually good, usually fine.
1:24:32
[SPEAKER_01]: So I do wonder, I do want to rewatch it to see like where we can go with, with Aubrey, and I was sorry, with Willow and and Mercedes, but I, I think,
1:24:44
[SPEAKER_01]: finish aside, the match was fantastic, was excellent.
1:24:48
[SPEAKER_01]: I loved some of the spots, attacking the hand thing.
1:24:52
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought Willow hit some crazy offense.
1:24:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't even, like, you have an actual injured hand.
1:24:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:24:56
[SPEAKER_01]: How are you doing this?
1:24:57
[SPEAKER_01]: We mentioned minutes into this match.
1:24:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Mercedes was busted open.
1:25:01
[SPEAKER_01]: We saw her at the presser.
1:25:02
[SPEAKER_01]: She had to get like stitches and her face looked.
1:25:05
[SPEAKER_01]: pretty beat up here.
1:25:06
[SPEAKER_01]: So these two women went to war, but honestly, they should be proud of this.
1:25:10
[SPEAKER_01]: I would say one of Mercedes best matches.
1:25:14
[SPEAKER_01]: And one of will a lot best matches.
1:25:16
[SPEAKER_01]: And they both have a lot of really good matches.
1:25:19
[SPEAKER_01]: So here I say one of one of the best matches on this show,
1:25:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I think I was pleasantly surprised with this one.
1:25:27
[SPEAKER_01]: So great stuff from these women and she finally did it Like she did it you said the four horse women thing like she's one titles and all like the new Japan the CMLL I mean she got to be like she got to be the she's the first she's the most decorated women's rest of all time
1:25:42
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, at this point.
1:25:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:25:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I next see rule SmackDown.
1:25:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:25:47
[SPEAKER_00]: New Japan.
1:25:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:25:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, starred in.
1:25:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:25:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:25:51
[SPEAKER_00]: And thank you, TBS.
1:25:52
[SPEAKER_01]: And thank you.
1:25:53
[SPEAKER_01]: If Tony Khan put out the money for Metallica, some ASAP for and some the who as we'll get into.
1:26:05
[SPEAKER_00]: What's saying he can't get paramour.
1:26:07
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't imagine Paramoles is much right.
1:26:09
[SPEAKER_00]: He can't be that much compared to this actually.
1:26:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Bob, it'll arrive in misery business.
1:26:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:26:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Honestly, like, that has to be the next chapter in that like, that's a huge match.
1:26:21
[SPEAKER_01]: We could go back to and you mentioned that match with the headband Izzy.
1:26:27
[SPEAKER_01]: She's wrestling now and we could easily go to that match.
1:26:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I know that sounds crazy, but yeah, Mercedes easily the number one in the four horse women and by a lot, I agree.
1:26:42
[SPEAKER_01]: I agree.
1:26:44
[SPEAKER_01]: So great match.
1:26:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Honestly, wow, well and I can get a rest up because we need you back.
1:26:47
[SPEAKER_01]: We need to rematch one day.
1:26:49
[SPEAKER_01]: They should be very proud of that match.
1:26:52
[SPEAKER_00]: We then had the main event of all in London, 2026.
1:26:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Willospray, Kenny Omega, for the A, W, World Championship.
1:27:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, this is a motion when I'm getting choked up already because what an entrance for Will is mom, writing and talking about how she even said your,
1:27:19
[SPEAKER_00]: You support you being a wrestler, but you're not going to make any money off of that.
1:27:24
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not going to earn a living and how she was wrong and how she's sticking to fingers off by everyone who's ever closed the door in his face.
1:27:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:27:34
[SPEAKER_01]: We went back down to the floor to get a real great look at these.
1:27:39
[SPEAKER_01]: We knew the entrances were going to be pre-epic.
1:27:41
[SPEAKER_01]: So we went back down to the floor with our fancy media passes and got a great view of this.
1:27:49
[SPEAKER_01]: I, you know, as soon as I kind of got a whiff for a sniff of could they do will all spray can you mega one more time and if they do I got a potentially go watch this met I got a by a flight, you know, I was you booked this whole trip before I did obviously you used to live here and everything and I was like
1:28:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if I want to do it and then you definitely did convince me you're like, come on, they might do Kenny and Willie, they might, so in my mind, I'm flying across the country to go watch two of my favorite wrestlers have potentially their last encounter, one more time, and I knew it was going to be an epic match.
1:28:26
[SPEAKER_01]: What I didn't think was going to happen was me and you standing there separately, like you're a little, a few steps away from me and we're watching this Will Osprey video package,
1:28:38
[SPEAKER_01]: getting a little emotion, getting very emotional.
1:28:41
[SPEAKER_01]: So as I'm about to go make a joke to you about how my eyes are kind of watering.
1:28:46
[SPEAKER_01]: before the words can come out of my mouth as I got a whisper in your ear, you're like, I'm getting emotion.
1:28:50
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, okay, I noticed like, I'm trying to get a lot of photos and videos and things like this.
1:28:57
[SPEAKER_00]: And I noticed my hand is shaking and like my voice is trembling, talking about it.
1:29:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I just, I thought such a beautiful entrance.
1:29:06
[SPEAKER_00]: And then the, you know, this video package was awesome.
1:29:10
[SPEAKER_00]: And then we didn't even clock all of it.
1:29:14
[SPEAKER_01]: of everyone he passed, but you know, Zack Sabajunia, Michael Oku and Amira, you then had like you had Swav was there, Ricochet, Ricochet was there, headed empire, yeah, you had basically like all the western Davis, yeah, like you had the the ghosts of Will Osprey's career, yeah, a great little snapshot of, you just need Jimmy have somewhere in the back there, right, yeah, right, I don't think we need it,
1:29:41
[SPEAKER_01]: It was it was so cool seeing out like the ghost of his his past to get to the big moment and then of course the big one with Well, he gets to give his let me get this right.
1:29:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm learning my British slang here a snog from his misses Yeah, right Windsor and then he goes the the United Empire boys are putting his jacket on his go down for him Counting struggle to little but and then he walks through the gorilla again and then out of nowhere mocks turns the corner
1:30:08
[SPEAKER_01]: And some his flag hit him a little now like go on them.
1:30:13
[SPEAKER_01]: And he goes out and as like the so it's the who bubble rightly teenage wasteland, which I'm sure was very expensive.
1:30:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, what you do, but hearing that's hearing the who in Wembley was getting me so emotional, call me a sucker, but anytime I hear that song, I I love it.
1:30:33
[SPEAKER_01]: be of Will's mom doing the voiceover.
1:30:36
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm sure a lot of people like me were thinking, how proud of her?
1:30:41
[SPEAKER_01]: How proud of him she must have been.
1:30:43
[SPEAKER_01]: And I got, I wanted to just call my mom, right?
1:30:46
[SPEAKER_01]: My mom, I love you so much.
1:30:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you for some support.
1:30:49
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, me and you do wrestling media and coverage and podcasts and stuff.
1:30:53
[SPEAKER_01]: So being able to even be invited to Wembley and be treated with me.
1:30:59
[SPEAKER_01]: It felt like,
1:31:00
[SPEAKER_01]: we made it here today to to go watch will go to battle go to war today so i don't know
1:31:07
[SPEAKER_01]: I know it's recent sea bias, that has to be one of the best entrances I've ever seen.
1:31:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I agree.
1:31:12
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm getting emotional right now.
1:31:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:31:14
[SPEAKER_01]: I love that song so much.
1:31:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I know it's been used in so many different movies and UFC uses sometimes and all this stuff.
1:31:21
[SPEAKER_01]: But honestly, like that for the next time anyone says, like, well, I don't like the wrestling in AWS, but they don't really tell stories.
1:31:29
[SPEAKER_01]: You are full of it because this was
1:31:32
[SPEAKER_01]: So beautiful.
1:31:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:31:34
[SPEAKER_00]: And then just hearing this stadium like it, it's such a great entrance song, Elevator.
1:31:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Elevator, hearing everyone sing in a long and, yeah, it was great chance like it was epic man.
1:31:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Like in his gear, I know he was talking about bringing it home with the what England.
1:31:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, 1966 is the last time y'all brought it home.
1:31:53
[SPEAKER_01]: I learned that this week.
1:31:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I wonder I learned why all the brits are mad all the time because you guys haven't won 66 It's why you keep singing to bring it home.
1:32:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so Will is here bringing it home with that great gear That was very similar to that that England team in 1966.
1:32:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Was that in Wembley?
1:32:09
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm assuming right old Wembley.
1:32:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah
1:32:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Pretty crazy.
1:32:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Amazing entrance and got me.
1:32:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I said I was I was going in the expected I'm gonna watch these two guys who I know are just gonna put on some Epic wrestling match, but here I am getting like Emotional over wrestling so is it I don't think I've been moved like that no since watching wrestling And then we had Kenny's entrance where a few thought will is it's my superhero Kenny's got this like super elaborate video of like
1:32:41
[SPEAKER_01]: all the clips of him in his career of like new Japan and you have like this almost new Japan-esque voiceover video thing where like it's going through his whole career and there's the voice of like always get that up.
1:32:57
[SPEAKER_01]: There may be more behind you than there is road ahead but doesn't mean the job is done and the flames of your battle cry are not out yet and all this
1:33:10
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not familiar with the anime that he was inspired by here, but apparently they got the voice of some popular Japanese show to do this intro for him.
1:33:23
[SPEAKER_01]: And they had this epic music from this show, playing it at Academia, something.
1:33:28
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not too familiar, but then he walks out, looking like the ultimate, like,
1:33:36
[SPEAKER_01]: video game boss the vital boss if you will and then that'll cry kicked in and it was like oh shit here we go none of that final fantasy music it was like nana and yeah I'm I'm wearing a haeming mask shout out to you Greg
1:33:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm wearing his shorts right now from his story Japan who made this year.
1:33:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll say right now best Kenny gear.
1:33:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen and I'm a Kenny fan.
1:33:59
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like this is the ultimate Kenny version if I've ever seen one.
1:34:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I think with the three matches, you know, the first one was Kenny absolutely dominating him coming out to devil devil devil sky devil sky.
1:34:18
[SPEAKER_00]: The second match it was Osprey playing up the Healish staff and
1:34:22
[SPEAKER_00]: And then this one just felt like they're proper iterations.
1:34:27
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I like how Kenny's like lean heel for this run.
1:34:33
[SPEAKER_00]: It's almost like the title is his one ring.
1:34:36
[SPEAKER_00]: And but he also understands he has to be a lover.
1:34:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think it works.
1:34:43
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't think it sacrifices his character.
1:34:45
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like he realizes this is what I have to do when I'm the champion.
1:34:51
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, I've got to go, I've got to not care about the person in the ring with me and just become this killer.
1:34:59
[SPEAKER_00]: But also, I think there's something about having the box rings side, which is big matches, just it felt like this felt like a like New Japan's heyday Kenny Omega main event.
1:35:12
[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, I just everything was
1:35:15
[SPEAKER_00]: fantastic and obviously the the blood in this match added to it the the kick out from the one-winged angel where the crowd just absolutely lost it to kick out on one after was it after the tiger driver you kicked out on one there was a storm breaker like uh you know it's it's those those things can be overdone but when done in the matches that
1:35:45
[SPEAKER_01]: deserved it and done look the box coming out gave me he had a knack is out when i think cutler were also there but i the video showed him and coda and stuff as well and uh well because we were talking to coda on instagram live quite a few times this week we assumed he wasn't gonna be there and i'll just say it uh Kenny lost because coda wasn't there and maybe you know that's just how it is uh this match was incredible i for the last three years
1:36:12
[SPEAKER_01]: had been saying probably the best match I've ever seen live was forbidden door 2023 when Kenny kicked out of his own one-winged age at one.
1:36:21
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I found my new favorite match this blue my mind this was one of the best matches I've ever seen live on TV as soon as we got back at like what two thirty three in the morning we're finally getting back from the presser in our Uber and all that stuff very chaotic getting home last night we couldn't go to bed.
1:36:39
[SPEAKER_01]: we had to rewatch we had to see what it looked like on TV and oh boy did it not
1:36:44
[SPEAKER_01]: uh, did a knock-to-suppoint.
1:36:45
[SPEAKER_01]: This was so violent.
1:36:48
[SPEAKER_01]: It was so good.
1:36:49
[SPEAKER_01]: They were killing each other out there.
1:36:51
[SPEAKER_01]: They looked good.
1:36:51
[SPEAKER_01]: The story of this match.
1:36:53
[SPEAKER_01]: We recently did our Kenny Omega Offspray, like retrospective profile podcast.
1:36:59
[SPEAKER_01]: We went back and watched the PWG, the all the tag matches.
1:37:02
[SPEAKER_01]: New Japan, AW for Bindor.
1:37:04
[SPEAKER_01]: We've watched it.
1:37:05
[SPEAKER_01]: And there was callbacks to a lot of their matches in this as well.
1:37:08
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, one of the questions I think I asked is,
1:37:12
[SPEAKER_01]: He went for it and will had it scouted and turned it into some crazy spot as well.
1:37:17
[SPEAKER_01]: But everything in this match was perfect.
1:37:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Like everything they did, they looked killer.
1:37:22
[SPEAKER_01]: And Koda being the one guy to kick out of the one-winged angel.
1:37:25
[SPEAKER_01]: And now it's will.
1:37:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Think of how many years was that move protected?
1:37:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like to give that to her will in this moment.
1:37:32
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a real passing of the tour.
1:37:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
1:37:35
[SPEAKER_00]: The emotion at the end from both of them just felt incredibly real like again just watching Will like gripping that title at the end may be like Tira.
1:37:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that as soon as like
1:37:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Man, they were so bloody like he was kicking his head in there as soon as it was over They was a little bit of like a a sign of respect.
1:37:55
[SPEAKER_00]: There was like a little handshake over the actual of Can you just laying there defeated and I think and I'll spray kind of Set it in the in the presser, but it was that tiger drive in 91 and then Kenny is Kenny's doing the losing that feeling in his hands like that yeah
1:38:12
[SPEAKER_00]: the nerve damage and all that.
1:38:14
[SPEAKER_00]: And the kick out one from the Stormbreaker, it was just like Osprey knew it's you had that last bit of adrenaline, but I know that that it's done you're done.
1:38:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, your stamina bar is depleted now and I have to put you away.
1:38:30
[SPEAKER_01]: It was crazy man.
1:38:31
[SPEAKER_01]: I've now rewatched this.
1:38:33
[SPEAKER_01]: I've watched this match twice once and person once empty as we got back and can't stop thinking about it.
1:38:37
[SPEAKER_01]: It's just it's one of that from the entrances all the way to even the post match.
1:38:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Now I don't know what we watched it but it kind of cut off the ending where they celebrated.
1:38:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:38:49
[SPEAKER_00]: So like I think on some feeds it had it on others.
1:38:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:38:52
[SPEAKER_00]: But obviously the big embrace at the end and both hugging.
1:38:56
[SPEAKER_00]: And they
1:38:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Kenny went to hand him the belt, but couldn't physically lift it.
1:39:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you need to help me lift this and he did.
1:39:05
[SPEAKER_01]: And then later, you saw Will helping Kenny with the box to lead.
1:39:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Very triple H under take her end of an era because this wasn't end of an era.
1:39:12
[SPEAKER_01]: These are two goats, man.
1:39:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Like these are the Kenny Omega is so inspirational to not just the fans, but a lot of wrestlers.
1:39:20
[SPEAKER_01]: And last year at all in Texas, we noticed that when Kenny and Ocada have their match, a lot of the roster,
1:39:29
[SPEAKER_01]: came down into a seated area to watch it.
1:39:32
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the same thing.
1:39:33
[SPEAKER_01]: I think a lot of the roster came up.
1:39:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we noticed it's like security blocking off basically the area opposite hard camp.
1:39:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
1:39:42
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm pretty sure that's where the roster was.
1:39:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, what you're doing.
1:39:46
[SPEAKER_01]: It lived up to the hype and beyond it.
1:39:47
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, there was a little, there was a little, you know, I can be a Mr. Positiveity, Mr.
1:39:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Negative, sometimes.
1:39:55
[SPEAKER_01]: There was a little thing in the back of my head,
1:39:58
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if they can talk.
1:39:59
[SPEAKER_01]: that forbidden door mask, that new Japan mask, like how could they do that?
1:40:03
[SPEAKER_01]: There's years of gun by it, can he's getting older, you know?
1:40:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, and sometimes it's difficult, like you're projecting so much further, and some of the sound is escaping and stuff like that.
1:40:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, from entrance to entrance to the end of the match, I would say one of the best presented, pro wrestling matches, ever done in my opinion.
1:40:22
[SPEAKER_01]: I see some see bias, but holy shit.
1:40:29
[SPEAKER_00]: just put together absolutely beautifully every aspect of this match.
1:40:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel now like they've been criticisms of Kenny Omega during his AEW run because he will be farting around in Trio's matches a lot of the time and like come on we want the big Kenny McLeaner.
1:40:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I kind of feel after this like yes we might still get big Kenny Omega singles matches in the future.
1:40:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I expect him to have a little break.
1:40:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope so.
1:40:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I think now I feel now he can enter that post, like part of his career, like he can be a Terry fun.
1:41:08
[SPEAKER_00]: He can do a, he can do some just wild brawls where he doesn't need to do the the next drops and the crazy stuff.
1:41:17
[SPEAKER_00]: He can do another tag run with Hangman or another trio is run with the bucks.
1:41:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I, after this match, I feel you have completed all the big matches.
1:41:28
[SPEAKER_00]: you, you should do.
1:41:30
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's, it's, you don't want this, you want this guy to leave this career healthy, you know, and his bomb cards up there.
1:41:40
[SPEAKER_00]: And I, if this is his last big, big main event match, I'm okay with it.
1:41:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Sure, yeah, I'd love to see kind of you make it earlier or Carl Fletcher or whatever, but I don't think we're kind of,
1:41:54
[SPEAKER_00]: at that anymore.
1:41:55
[SPEAKER_00]: And maybe he's maybe he's got a lot left in the tank.
1:41:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Sure.
1:41:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Like what a what a perfect end of like this part of his career.
1:42:03
[SPEAKER_01]: It literally was a passing of the torch.
1:42:05
[SPEAKER_01]: And we like I said, we did this whole show.
1:42:06
[SPEAKER_01]: We were researching, getting ourselves hyped up for this this big batch.
1:42:10
[SPEAKER_01]: And it was it was a passing of the torch of like, okay.
1:42:14
[SPEAKER_01]: eight w's in your hands now I was the ace for instance the beginning since we start this company revolved around can you make it like I know the the story is hangman's the main character but really it's been Kenny Omega since eight w even existed like going back to why does eight eight w even exists is because he was doing these matches and there's interest outside the w w and all that's it's like now the torch to aspirate all right kid you run with this you know people've been saying Kenny's the best wrestler for years and
1:42:42
[SPEAKER_01]: He gave the keys to the kingdom to Will Osprey.
1:42:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And I thought this was just something very, very special.
1:42:49
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, can he take a break, play some video games, he'll up, we don't need, we don't need this big epic Kenny Omega matches, but I mean, I would never say no to watching him rest of it.
1:42:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course, yeah, I got to watch these two goats go to war for entertainment and boy today, like all, like,
1:43:07
[SPEAKER_01]: hats off bow to these these two gladiators because they crush it.
1:43:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I Would be so upset if I didn't come So thank you for convincing me because I don't think I'll ever see something as special as we did with this with this match and this
1:43:23
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it was in a bubble rally after this.
1:43:25
[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to bump it because I just, it was, it was special.
1:43:28
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a, it was a moment for sure.
1:43:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, we're going to, we're going to wrap it up there as we have a big day still plan ahead of us.
1:43:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, match of the night, the main event.
1:43:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, one of the greatest.
1:43:39
[SPEAKER_00]: pay for usable time.
1:43:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Is that crazy to say like this felt like a bit it felt like a huge turning point which at double or nothing we were like we were there we were like this felt like a huge one of the best shows have ever been to like this changing pivotal moment.
1:43:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm feeling the same way but even more after this I would say this is possibly the best A.W.
1:44:01
[SPEAKER_01]: show I've been to.
1:44:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and not just because I got to sit next to you in John Paul.
1:44:06
[SPEAKER_01]: It can eat cheesecake and some goo lashing and stuff.
1:44:10
[SPEAKER_01]: It was just phenomenal.
1:44:11
[SPEAKER_01]: So let us know a great disagree.
