AEW Headlines and Dynamite Preview - Holiday Bash · Ignition - an AEW Podcast

0:03
It's Tuesday night. You know what that means. It's time for Ignition with
0:07
aw fan Hub. This is Kelson. I'm here with Sleazy the Professional and
0:13
Renee and we're going to talk about headlines coming out of the weekend and a
0:19
short dy to my preview. We don't want to talk about it too much,
0:23
I guess. But before I get into anything, I want to express
0:28
my concern and hopes that CJ Perry is feeling better. Some of you probably
0:35
KNOWJ had a infection on her hand, on her finger, and it spread
0:44
up to her arms. She was in the emergency room for over fifty hours
0:48
and went into surgery, successful surgery. Miro, her husband did post a
0:54
post on Instagram where he took her you know romantic gifts, you know,
1:00
pizza and soda. That's romantic to me because I'm Italian and I like food
1:03
and drink. But anyway, I hopefully CJ is feeling better. And we
1:11
missed you on Collision last week, but understandably and hopefully you'll get back to
1:19
work as soon as you feel better. But take care of yourself anyway,
1:23
Let's move on to Ignition, and you know what the first thing I want
1:26
to talk about is the improvements that we've been seeing in the aw women's division.
1:34
The ratings for the segments came out for Collision. Now, remember on
1:41
Collision we had the Abdon match, which of course had Julia Hart at sky
1:48
Blue for me a team and thunder Rosa coming off the Spanish announcing desk to
1:57
what I guess, basically save Abadon from the newly formed team of Julia Hart
2:02
and sky Blue. And then we also had the street fight between Chris Statlander
2:09
and Willem Nightingale against Mercedes Martinez and Diamante. Those two women's segments on Collision
2:21
were the two highest rated segments on the entire show as far as actual TV
2:29
ratings go. So hey, naysayers, if you think the women don't pull
2:35
in ratings, if you do good story, anything can pull in ratings.
2:40
Anything, and I'm not saying just women. You could put two turtles in
2:45
their shell just spinning on their backs. If it's a good story behind it,
2:49
somebody's going to watch it. Not on wrestling, but somebody's going to
2:53
watch it. Sleazy. What are your thoughts on the women's division? I
2:58
mean, the ratings are there, how have they improved? Yes? Because
3:05
as you can see the ratings have certainly improved, and that's due to the
3:10
matter of fact that now TK is like, oh wait a minute, I
3:15
should maybe tell stories instead of making this last minute. And that's the thing
3:21
that's the most important right here, especially with thunder Rosa's recent comeback story and
3:27
how she managed to do it, and now that the ratings are there,
3:31
it seems like we're finally getting the improvements that we need now. Of course,
3:37
in my personal opinion, that should be happening to certain other wrestlers,
3:40
but of course then we'd be here for twenty four hours talking about them.
3:44
So overall, I'd say the women's division is on the upswing. But well,
3:52
Sleasie, let me ask you a question before you throw it over to
3:53
the professional. So we saw the return to thunder Rosa. In your mind,
3:59
is that a really big deal for aw Well, she certainly made it
4:04
a big deal. Again, as I said last week, what was most
4:09
important was what she did on Saturday, what she said and what she did,
4:15
and what she's saying and what she's doing. It's working, especially with
4:20
the raidings. Now the professional what is your professional opinion? Yeah, thanks,
4:28
Leevy, I'm actually not surprised that the women are doing well. The
4:32
reason Dan is we needed to have patients. There are a lot of women
4:38
that were injured over the last year. So you had Abadon who just returned
4:41
from injury, Red Velvet just returned from injury a few I think a few
4:46
weeks ago. You had Chris stat Leonar who returned from injury earlier this year
4:49
at double or nothing if I remember correctly. And now you got jad Hater.
4:55
She's on the shelf so she won't be coming back until probably next summer.
4:59
And then you also got Baker who was also injured, so you had
5:01
a lot of injuries. You still do have a lot of injuries with the
5:04
women's division. And then you also had Rio. I don't think she was
5:08
injured, but she just hadn't been in the States for such a long time,
5:12
so she returned a few weeks ago. So you didn't have a lot
5:15
of depth with the women's division, and I think that was overlooked. And
5:20
in traditional sports, depth is really really important. Yes, you have your
5:26
superstars, you have your Lebron James, and you know other players, but
5:30
if you don't have depth, those those bench pieces that can step up.
5:34
When that started these arrests or in this case, when a wrestler goes down,
5:39
it's going to suffer, and had suffered for a very very long time.
5:44
But I was just waiting because I always thought that it was kind of
5:47
funny that people thought that TK didn't care about women or women's wrestling when you
5:53
have Roh doing a great job with Athena and Billy Starks and other women wrestlers
5:59
that they're like right there even though they're not an ew So I was just
6:01
being patient, just waiting, And again, I'm not surprised that they've done
6:06
so well. You've had time to build stories, you've had time to get
6:11
wrestles that were injured, and they were away for a long time back into
6:14
the swing of things. So again I wasn't surprised. I'm very happy to
6:18
see them do so well, and I look forward to what's going to come
6:21
next with so many different storylines. Butther than that, I'll just throw it
6:27
over to Renee for his thoughts. Yeah, I totally agree with you guys
6:30
on on that for sure, But I was more rooding on Avagon coming back,
6:35
you know, because she had that long absence, And it's funny because
6:41
before coming on here and trying to set up for snight's podcast. Was watching
6:47
an all dark match that she faced Rep. Delve Ball people, and and
6:55
if I have it right, Abadan just face Rep delb And of course you
6:58
know what happened is one her matches. I just because like I, uh
7:06
so, just anyone can correct me on this one. Abadan was out on
7:11
an entry. Yes, you was okay, so that deveryone explains that.
7:16
Why a long acid? But I don't know. I just I just want
7:20
to see her ab On more, you know, and because I want to
7:27
see someone can actually beat the crap out her, you know, because there's
7:34
there is, like they say, there's always an achilles heel of some person.
7:39
So you know, one of the things that we talked about on the
7:43
Sunday Morning Ship talk was uh Abodon specifically uh And I think it was me
7:48
that brought up this point. It could have been somebody else. I don't
7:50
remember if I'm stepping on Toesy or I apologize, But we did talk a
7:55
little bit about Abadon and the difference in Abadon right now to what Tony Khan
8:01
had done with other women. Now, Abadon is obviously getting a push to
8:05
be the challenger for Julia Hart for the TBS Championship. Now, whether that's
8:11
going to be at World's End or next week's Dynamite, we don't know.
8:16
But here's the point is that in the past, Tony Khan has basically given
8:24
his calendar specifically for Jade Cargill for the TBS Championship two or three wins and
8:31
then the championship match, and then that woman was never seen or heard from
8:37
again at all. Literally, it's like they dropped off the planet. But
8:43
with Abdon, Abadon has already had more appearances than most of the challengers that
8:54
Jade car Gill had. At addition to that, she's actually got story.
8:58
And I apologize if I'm not using the correct pronouns, but it's too late
9:03
in the evening for me to do things. But Abadon really has a story
9:09
going behind their wrestling journey, where the women that challenge Jade Cargill did not.
9:16
And I think that's very interesting. And I want to make one other
9:22
point, and I want to throw it to everybody just briefly to see if
9:24
you agree with me or not. Yes, Looking at the last several weeks,
9:31
Tony Kahn is really building stories with his booking in the women's division.
9:37
Let's not forget as the professional brought up, Riho is now back. We
9:43
have Jamie Hayter, who is right around the corner. I've heard, and
9:48
you can correct me if I'm wrong to the professional, but I've heard that
9:52
she's almost ready and she'll be ready possibly for World's End to Bacon appearance.
10:00
Britt Bagner is bent out, you know so. But here's the thing.
10:07
Let's not forget that Mercedes Monet is out there and they've got to make well.
10:13
Tony Khan is making an effort, in my opinion, he's making an
10:18
effort with the women's division to entice Mercedes Monet and or Julia, whose contracted
10:24
stardom is up in March, to come over. Now there's other women that
10:30
are going to be coming too, don't forget. Beginning in a year,
10:33
Yukosa Kazaki is back in aw permanently. She's moved to the United States,
10:39
she's out of Japan. She is going to be She's got a new look,
10:46
and it's a really good look for her too. I really like it.
10:50
I can't wait to see if she changes a rear ring gear. But
10:52
ultimately we're enticing some I think a lot of this has to do with enticing
10:58
some of these free agents to come up. Lucie, what do you think
11:01
about that that opinion? Well, first off, I do want to say
11:05
that the storytelling has been very good. Hell, we could get an Undertaker
11:09
versus Caine kind of rivalry going with Julia and Abadon, because Abada is just
11:13
the monster and Julia Hart is well calculated, cold woman like the Undertaker.
11:18
But actually good. Now, the fact of the matter is, though,
11:24
if we're talking about only making it good for free agents, now, look,
11:30
Julia Hart, that actually makes sense, you know. But for Mercedes
11:35
Monett. Come on, why are we trying to entie super big superstars like
11:41
this? Do you remember what happened with a certain rapped fist man. I'm
11:48
not looking forward to a rap fist man's situation with Mercedes Monet, which is
11:52
why I don't want her anywhere near the product, which is why DK needs
11:56
to be telling story for the sake of telling a good store, which was
12:00
the point of anyw in the first place, and not just be trying to
12:03
entice every other old guy who's gonna get the massive pop as soon as they
12:07
make an entrance. It doesn't matter okay, but I'm gonna throw it to
12:13
the professional for their professional opinion. I totally agree with you about Mercedes Monnet.
12:20
It's it's from the standpoint of what I don't like that's happening in the
12:26
industry. From what I'm seeing is there are certain wrestlers who, I mean,
12:31
every wrestlers are marked for themselves, but there are certain wrestlers that feel
12:35
like WW it is the pinnacle of wrestling, not even just sports entertainment,
12:39
So any other company is a step down. And I think that that's a
12:45
weak mentality to have because you don't put a lot of you don't have a
12:50
lot of faith in yourself to say I can be a simmerpiece of something that's
12:54
new as opposed to being another spoke on the wheel. And the WW is
12:58
comfortable for a lot of rest When I get it, I totally get it.
13:01
You know, wrestling may just be it for them, so if they
13:05
can't wrestle, how they're going to make some money. I get it.
13:07
It's very comfortable, cool. But for other people that want to, I
13:11
guess, think outside the box, take a chance on themselves, like John
13:16
Moxley did, which I was super shocked that he would do. I like
13:20
that, but I just feel like there are a lot of wrestlers who want
13:24
to go to the W route, so now they're enticed to go back,
13:28
like Mercedes Monet, and I think that's what she's gonna do. I don't
13:31
think she's gonna come to AW. I have very little faith that she will.
13:35
And even if she did, I would think that she would always have
13:39
one foot out the door like some of these other wrestlers who grew up in
13:43
a WW system and that's all they're really known. So I agree with you
13:46
there, Sleazy. I don't want to see her in AW. I hope
13:50
that Tony isn't doing this to entice her. I would rather than go after
13:54
Julia, start to just go after wrestlers who've never been int Wwe work with
14:01
them, create a new generation of people that really don't have to have success
14:05
in wrestling by going to WW. So point and I'll go over to Renee
14:13
here. Yeah, I'm gonna. I'm gonna we'll makeet a total agreement on
14:18
this one, because I don't want to reference the man with the ref fist,
14:22
but I did. I pulled this up and I put it into the
14:26
aa w's of van Hub, where it was posted on October twenty sixth,
14:31
twenty twenty through about about the fistit Man. There's a point to this,
14:35
Okay, guys, hear me out, and I did say that. Now
14:39
I rate him as a four. If he comes back, there'll be a
14:43
big surprise because some of the wrestlers are gonna welcome back to both arms.
14:48
And anyways, if if your guys are interested in reading the whole thing,
14:52
it's it's in the utter chat part of that. So now to get back
14:56
to mont it's like, yeah, exactly, here's the concern I'm gonna have
15:01
is like, it's the same thing that you guys brought it up. Yes,
15:05
you might bring someone from from a different place, but are you gonna
15:09
do you want DjVu all over again like the fisted Man? Or or should
15:15
say the best in the world when he arrived at a w no, because
15:22
one would one would tell me con thinks he learned his lessons first time around.
15:26
And also, by the way, I don't think one name is going
15:30
back to the to w. I just her hands or her hands are washed
15:35
once she left a long time ago on some back down. That's what I'm
15:39
thinking about that she probably just maybe she'll go a different promotion and continue on
15:45
her wrestling career. And yeah, okay, so I just think I had
15:52
to chunkle. I think it's funny that nobody wants to say, see,
15:54
I'm balking, man. I love it. Anyway, We're gonna move on
15:58
and for the next couple of segments, the professional you had a couple of
16:03
ideas of things to talk about, So I'm going to throw it over to
16:06
you. What is it that you'd like to talk about tonight? Yeah,
16:10
thanks, Gulson. So one of the topics that I want to discuss is
16:14
just the recent rumors of Warner Brothers Warner Brothers Discovery Sorry, having a meeting
16:19
with WWE in regards to their television deal for RAW and I want to say,
16:25
maybe it's for the next three to five years. And this is right
16:27
at the same time that AW is trying to negotiate a new deal for their
16:33
television properties, which include Dynamite, Collision, Rampage and also Ronk, so
16:37
that that's four properties to one. And with this kind of rumor, you
16:44
do see a lot of fans. I hate to say, both sides put
16:48
WWE fans and the AW fans they're kind of leaning towards you know, this
16:53
could be aw's departure from Warner Brothers Discovery. History repeats self almost with you
17:00
know, Warner Brothers dropping WCW in two thousand and one, perhaps they drop
17:07
a W. And the reason this could be a strong possibility is Warner Brothers
17:11
Discovery is also trying to retain the NBA rights. So they've had the NBA
17:17
on TNT for god knows how long, maybe since I believe the early nineties,
17:23
but them losing the NBA that would be a big blow to Warner Brothers
17:29
Discovery. So their main focus right now is trying to keep the NBA,
17:33
especially keeping the NBA from returning perhaps too ironically NBC, which you know is
17:40
under that peacock umbrella. However, if you do have Warner Brothers Discovery shoes
17:48
and RAW over AW, what does that deed to the future of AW mean?
17:53
As a promoter, you need those television rights. I mean, heck,
17:57
every team in North from America right now, every professional sports team relies
18:03
on that TV money, whether it's a regional contract or it's the national distribution
18:10
of television revenue. That money is important. So if that money is taken
18:15
away. Yes, Tony CON's a billionaire, but how can AW be profitable.
18:22
They have a lot of expensive contracts with a lot of talent. So
18:26
if they lose Warner Bros. Discovery that relationship to their competitor, what does
18:33
that say for their future? I mean, yes, they can go to
18:36
another television network, but will that television network give them even the same amount
18:41
of money as maybe Warnbrough's Discovery would have given them. Now, we don't
18:45
know what's gonna happen. This is just speculation in my opinion. I don't
18:49
think AW is in trouble. I don't think they're even Warner Brough's Discovery.
18:55
I think that would be foolish of Warner Brothers Discovery to do. And I'm
18:57
not saying this is because I'm the b but I alluded to it as soon
19:02
as I talked about it. AW has four properties that will need rights three
19:07
more importantly roh. Yes, I know Tony's trying to loop the loop Roh
19:14
in with AW, but they have four properties to one property in WW.
19:18
Raw. Yes, WW has to day recognition and things like that, but
19:23
for the amount of money that WW will probably acts Warner Brothers Discovery to pay
19:29
for just one show. They can get a far better deal with AW and
19:36
even if they lose the NBA, they can actually save money because I believe
19:41
that they have a lot of debt, especially when they were Warner Brothers in
19:44
Discovery merged, they have a lot of debts. So they lose the NBA,
19:48
they can perhaps use that money to pay down some of that debt or
19:52
whatever the case they be. But they get a better bargain and a better
19:56
working relationship with AW as opposed to WW. You can't get those streaming rights.
20:03
You're gonna have to advertise a competitor on your intelligience network in Peacock.
20:07
With AW, they are receptive to any change that you at. Well,
20:12
probably not any change because I believe Rampage is supposed to be a third hour
20:15
of Dynamite, but they're receptive to changes. They have belts named after your
20:22
network. It's a much better deal. That's why I don't think Warner Brothers
20:26
Discovery is going to leave aw Hagen. But it's an interesting rumor. So
20:33
I'd like to get everyone else's thoughts, So I'll start with you, Sleepy.
20:37
Well, that certainly took a lot of time to explain, but thanks
20:41
for explaining question. Yes, recent so so anyway, this is one of
20:48
the many topics, major topics that just make me sad, that just make
20:53
me depressed. But you know what, screw it, I'll talk about it
20:56
anyway. At least from what I'm seeing it, it is stupid for Warner
21:00
Brothers to try and back out with aw now, especially since you remember backing
21:06
all in when they were like, oh, yeah, we're gonna get a
21:08
billion dollar deal. Are they gonna back out of the billion dollar deal?
21:15
That'd be kind of hypocritical and perhaps lying, cheating and stealing. Now,
21:19
the fact of the matter is, I don't think that's going to happen.
21:22
We're gonna keep on with Warner Bros. And stuff, And I don't care
21:26
about any basketball riots well except maybe the Celtics, but other than that,
21:30
I don't really care. But if it came down to it, here's what
21:33
I would do if I was TK, I would be like, Okay,
21:37
we gotta pretty much ax everything except for Dynamite and then make huge down cuts
21:42
on all these wrestlers. I know it sounds really harsh, sounds really critical,
21:47
but you know what you gotta do. What you gotta do to survive.
21:49
And if that's what it takes for AW to survive, then damn it,
21:53
that's what they gotta do to survive. AX Rampage, EX collision X
21:56
ROH. Do whatever you need to do, use the act if you need
22:00
to in order to survived, because I just don't want to watch AWA television
22:03
because guess what if AW has nowhere to go, we as a fan hub
22:07
are kind of screwed. So anyway, I'm going to pass down to her
22:11
name. What do you think, Renae? Yeah, it's you're playing with
22:15
fire, guys, it's what comes to like a professional. I agree with
22:21
you one hundred percent too. It's like, look, I don't know how
22:23
long the NBA isnt World, but yeah, that's a big property that they
22:29
have in order to cover their bases, you know, for programming lines.
22:33
Don't forget that they have the NHL on TNT as well two that they didn't
22:37
have to consider. You know, I don't know how long that deal is
22:41
for that, but uh yeah, so if you take out AW programming,
22:48
it's like what is left to do. It's like like in terms of you
22:53
know what I mean in terms of programming and because the facts the fact that,
22:56
like, think about this, do you really think Fox is going to
23:02
take a W programming like it's bad? It's crazy enough that that, uh,
23:07
the other brand is going to consider taking n XT on a c W.
23:14
Did you guys hear about that? No, I have heard that.
23:21
Did turn down the CWS offered to put r O H on c W.
23:29
Yeah, I was too, I was I heard that too. Sorry guys
23:33
for starting the Russell ramls on YouTube. Well getting ready for tonight's podcast.
23:40
Also, yeah, it just it just feels weird. It's just I hope
23:44
it could be fixed. And I and the RUSS You didn't say that.
23:48
Where bars scard Ys since when they merged together their dead? Yeah they are
23:53
okay, but I'm still but also but yeah, also the about this,
24:00
just like if God for fit, if I Dave it considered going to NBC
24:06
slash Peacock, It's it's gonna be like the way the way w W was,
24:12
It's gonna die. You know, it's gonna be such a shame because
24:17
the sering amount effort that Tony Conn and company build it up. And and
24:22
also like he can't put all four over bad money over good money all the
24:30
time. If it ever happens too, so because next thing you know,
24:34
he's gonna be broke and he has his clear bankruptcy and that's that as well.
24:40
So yeah, well, like hurt wrestling in North America. To be
24:45
honest, if we were and I'm not saying this to be biased, I'm
24:49
serious, if we werenna lose AW, it would hurt wrestling in North America
24:53
because even if you're rich, why did you want to invest in my promotion?
24:59
If he you see recently what has happened, You've seen like what has
25:03
happened when someone tries to go against the big behemoth and ww you know,
25:07
so this is it's important, But I'm just I'm just not worried, not
25:14
yet. But well, you know, it's it's all speculation at this point.
25:19
I mean, I'm sure that there's been talks that we don't know about,
25:26
and there's been you know, proposals that we don't know about, considered
25:33
considerations that we don't know about, and I mean, okay, we're not
25:37
considering this, or we are considering this, this, you know, from
25:41
all avenues. Ultimately, I think what it comes down to is this AW
25:48
is on Warner Brothers Discovery, right, now, and as the professional said,
25:52
Warner Brothers Discovery is their main focus is on the TN you know,
25:57
the NBA on TNT. You know, that's what they've got to focus on.
26:03
That's their big money. If they lose that, frankly, nobody's gonna
26:07
be watching TN, T or TBS very much anyway. They have to get
26:12
something else in there. And is AW the right thing to take place of
26:18
TN, you know, the NBA on TNT or whatever. No, it
26:22
isn't. It's a totally different crowd. So there's a lot of stuff to
26:29
play out. You know, you got also considered what the WWE They've got
26:33
their presence on Peacock. Does Warner Brothers Discovery want to if, just hypothetically
26:40
speaking, if Warner Brothers Discovery takes over WWE as their television property, what
26:47
are they gonna do. Are they gonna put the WWE library on Max?
26:51
Are they gonna put the premium live events on Max? Or are they going
26:53
to keep the the pay per views on Bleacher? You know, there's a
27:00
lot of stuff that's going on. And also, you know, you got
27:04
to consider that these guys are professionals, not only Tony Kahan, you know,
27:11
but the Endeavor group with WWE, the Warner Brothers Discovery. These guys
27:17
are professionals. They're going to do what's best for them and that's it.
27:22
So well, I don't think that they can. The one thing that's gonna
27:27
hurt Warner Brothers Discovery with with w W would be the pay per views because
27:33
I think w W is locked in with Pete Pockets at twenty twenty six.
27:38
That could be wrong, Okay, I didn't know that, yeah, and
27:42
that that will hurt. That's why I mentioned like they would be giving up
27:47
so much to just get three hours from w W, three hours a week,
27:52
compared to the five hours that AW gives them. Again, you got
27:57
six hours of Battle of the Belts. That's just that's why I don't I
28:03
don't think. That's why I'm not worried. The only thing that I'm worried
28:07
about is the fact that Tony Kahan didn't agree with putting RH on CW because
28:15
I think it would have been better for them to get their name out there
28:19
on over the air television because there are people that don't have cable and they
28:26
can watch CW. Like I know, the CW has college sports, so
28:32
here I'm in Chicago. They show those games. Actually not even on the
28:37
CW like syndicated countel. They show it on WGN, which used to have
28:41
a superstation channel across the Nathan or whatever. But a lot of people watch
28:45
that channel. So it's like if Roh can be guided on there. And
28:49
I get like he wants to keep that relationship with Warner broad A Discovery,
28:52
but now I wish they can find a way to get their shows on over
28:57
the air television, whether it's a recap kill or whatever. Like that's how
29:03
I followed WWF and WCW as a kid. Well, you know, the
29:07
one thing that I can say, you know, and this is something that
29:10
is working in Tony Kahn's favor with negotiations, is look at Revolution twenty twenty
29:17
four, at all the tickets that it is sold already, and of course
29:21
you can't discount in August of next year, twenty twenty four, you've got
29:25
all in. So you know, those are international fans that could really bring
29:37
in some revenue for whoever picks up aw, whether it's Warner Brothers, Discovery
29:45
or some other entity. The professional Let's move on here because I don't want
29:49
to talk about this for another sixty minutes. What there was something else you
29:56
wanted to talk about, so hit us with it. Yeah, So we've
30:03
seen AW. They've struggled recently or for the bed part of this year,
30:08
especially from the summer on, with attendance ratings. I cannot remember the last
30:15
time that they had viewership of over a million on average, and that just
30:19
doesn't include like the start of the show coming from that Big Bang theory leader.
30:25
You know. So they struggled. We've seen w there on the hot
30:29
streak, the hottest that they've been. I haven't watched theww It's not my
30:33
taste. But that leads me into just the question that I have or the
30:37
thoughts that I have in REGARDSS to current wrestling fans. And I wasn't aware
30:44
of this until this year. It this appears that and this is not to
30:48
any fault of those wrestling fans, but it appears that in this continent,
30:53
North America, we prioritize sports entertainment over wrestling, and I didn't pay attention
31:03
to it. But over the years since AW has started, you know,
31:07
they've always wanted to veer away from that sports entertainment, want to be more
31:11
sports based, like New Japan Pro Wrestling. Is they had the ranking system.
31:18
You know, you don't start many Dynamite shows with a twenty minute promo
31:21
things of that nature. But you start to just hear some complaints or read
31:26
complaints online. The ranking system doesn't make sense. They're just farming wins on
31:30
Dark and Dark Elevation. Let's get away from the ranking system. Why isn't
31:36
this, Why wasn't this on Dynamite? Why didn't they do this promo?
31:40
Things like that, and like I said, didn't become apparent to me until
31:44
this year that it just appears that most wrestling fans in North America again are
31:51
sports entertainment fans. So I just want to know from all of you,
31:56
what do you think AW fans are. Do you think they're mostly of sports
32:00
entertainment or do you think they're mostly fans of wrestling? Because of my opinion,
32:04
it just seems like one stuff that you got hot again, people just
32:07
left AW and went back to that sports entertainment that they know and love as
32:14
opposed to trying to I don't want to say this, but just trying to
32:19
really follow wrestling. So I'll just throw it over to us. Leason,
32:25
Well, I mean the fact that the matter is is what you define and
32:30
sports entertainment, you know, I mean, like, what are we talking
32:34
about here? Are we talking about kind of like the crazy stuff going on
32:37
with them Jeff and Ale? Or are we talking about really cool storylines like
32:42
can you make it an ADI page for four years? You know that?
32:46
In terms of that, like, in terms of that stuff, people do
32:51
want that, but they also want actually quantity wrestling. After all, North
32:55
America was like, hey wwwe actually put what your wrestlers who can do a
33:00
moon salt without breaking their heads? Now, of course, personally for me,
33:06
since I'm wearing my Magic Meet shirt, I'm a fan of Danny Madge
33:09
met nerd do you bear to me sports entertainers? And that doesn't mean I
33:16
don't appreciate good wrestling. That was actually pretty good. I know, I'm
33:22
a really good It was good. But the fact of the manner is that
33:27
we do want both. And don't you be like that guy on Twitter who
33:30
was like, do you want this thing or another thing? And then the
33:32
other guy says both, because guess what North America does indeed want both,
33:39
So shush to all the people being like, do you want one thing or
33:44
do you want another because we want both. It's just everyone sucks at delivering
33:50
both, except the indies at least. Right now, Uh, Renee,
33:54
what's your thoughts? Well? Well, sorry, sorry before before you go,
33:58
Rene and Key elaborate more on next. I want to hear more about,
34:02
like why North Americans, I guess want both because I feel like it's
34:07
one of the other. But yeah, I would love to hear more about
34:12
that. Well, the fact of the matter is North America was going nuts
34:16
over MJF and Adam Cole over the summer, you know, with all their
34:21
shenanigans, being like, let's beat up all these kids at a trampoline park
34:25
and yeah, let's drink this hot sauce while we're talking about how I slammed
34:30
the Big Bill in the middle of Madison Square Garden or whatever. Guess what,
34:34
we also go nuts for crazy spectacular matches like flood and guts and you
34:40
know, like extreme wrestling, and you know, just all the good wrestling
34:45
matches like that, you know. So the fact of the matter is we
34:52
go nuts over both. We just need them both in high quality WWE.
34:57
They can't do it. They can't be who wrestle and have quality storylines.
35:01
At the same time they just suck all together and a W they're retreading their
35:07
way towards that bound. Now, Braine, what's your thoughts? Okay,
35:13
just run your clarification to essnal. Where where do you think the decline of
35:20
like fandom of AW went when I just want I want to say it started
35:30
slowly. And I hate to say this, but go ahead. Kind of
35:35
saw it coming and that's why I didn't agree with AW fans doing this.
35:39
I want to say it started when Cody went and went back to w W.
35:44
Okay, because he's just meet in my opinion, he is a sports
35:49
entertainer at heart, and he's a great amateur wrestler. I think he has
35:52
a good amateur background in high school, but he is a sports entertainer at
35:57
heart, and I think once he went to w slowly started and it kind
36:02
of didn't stop. It Well, it hasn't stopped. That's you said.
36:10
My take on that, basically, it's just I don't know. Maybe maybe
36:22
I might be wrong on this, guys, but uh most but probably there
36:28
are some people that do go to a W events, which you cool to
36:32
tapings, you know, maybe just something it's just something to do. It's
36:37
kind of like, you know, like you, me, me and my
36:42
dad Will as an example, we go watch hockey game, just just something
36:45
to do, you know, and and then realize, oh, there's wrestling
36:51
it here, you know, all this stuff. But I'm but then again,
36:55
I'm pretty sure there's there's been hardcore Day one ers of aw fans has
37:01
been there for the get go, They've been there for Daily's placed in the
37:05
pandemic, right, But still the concern is that too. It's like,
37:16
yes, it's sold out, what was it all in? Yeah, okay,
37:24
if that sold out, right, I don't think it sold out,
37:29
but it had the most ticket sales of any is sold out. Anyone can
37:36
quarify that it's not sold out. That's kind of a hard thing to say,
37:40
because when they initially released the tickets for Revolution to set up was for
37:49
X amount of seats, and they started to get close to selling that out,
37:54
even though the it wasn't the entire arena. They had to release more
38:00
seats and they may even have to do it again. So no, Revolution
38:04
isn't sold out per se as far as the arena size, but it's getting
38:08
close to selling out the setup that they have, which may result in even
38:14
more seats being opened up. Okay, and that's of course if I do
38:19
know this that this would be stayings class match as a as a professionals will
38:25
be weird and see go. But to understandable, he's been around for a
38:30
lot of time. Do you okay? So I'll post this question. Do
38:37
you guys and Edward can chime in. Do you guys think that maybe there'll
38:40
be a point to aid that can't topple the other brands if it was done
38:45
properly, no matter what side you're on, if it's if it's for sports
38:51
entertainment or just a wrestling part of it. Sure, I mean anything,
38:57
you know, any given Sunday is an expression used in NFL football. It's
39:00
the same thing with professional wrestling. It's some same thing. People WCW beat
39:06
the hell out of WWE ye and then they folded. You know, It's
39:10
as simple as that. It's consistency. It's putting a consistent good product out
39:17
and being accessible. If there's one thing that I can say about ae W
39:23
in my opinion is that it's not as accessible as WWE, Meaning how many
39:31
shows did they have in Chicago last year? There's only fifty two weeks in
39:36
a year. You know what I'm saying. I'll give you an example I
39:39
have where I live. It's a smaller area in northeastern Pennsylvania. We do
39:45
have an arena here that holds not you know, it's a minor league hockey
39:52
arena. WCW is here, WWE, WWE was here just a few weeks
40:00
ago. Right a w has never been here. You if you want,
40:07
if you want to get fans to come to your shows, you've got to
40:10
be accessible to the fans. And if the fans come to your shows,
40:15
then they'll start watching you on TV. If you're going for the you know,
40:22
basically the residents of Chicago to be your fan base that stay in Chicago.
40:30
Look at the ratings when when AW did their last tour of Canada,
40:35
the ratings in the United States pretty much tanked. Why because they weren't in
40:39
the United States. You know, it's great doing a show in Montreal and
40:45
then doing a show in Long Island and then doing a show in Detroit,
40:49
et cetera, et cetera, But staying out of the country for two months
40:53
is not It's just not good. I mean, especially since Canada doesn't have
41:00
you know, I see it all the time on Reddit. Where can I
41:05
watch aw on in Canada? I live in Canada. Where can I watch
41:08
it? And it's not accessible? Well yes, in a way, yes
41:14
and no, because that's what's that's what I get pissed off about. Where.
41:19
Okay, so far as I know that either Dynamite if it's a double
41:22
on ts N two, okay, that that's But the crappy part is that
41:30
for a Rampage and Collision is on ts N Plus. But and the way
41:37
before it was it was on a preview basis. But now you have to
41:42
pay like seven or eight dollars to go watch go watch that stuff, and
41:46
that's not right, you know, Yes, I am ahead, sorry,
41:57
just way fish and I'll bring it back in. So I probably damn lucky
42:04
if I get if worst comes the worst, if I don't watch No Dynamite
42:07
and hope and pray that there is a replay of Dynamite to catch up on
42:14
it. But yet I can't do it for Rampage and Collision because really I
42:21
can't literally afford seventy seven dollars, just like much syncing with the Honor Club.
42:24
Can't afford that. And but lista get so that's all. That's why
42:29
I have watching it from other sources on Amazon, fire TV, through whatever
42:35
source I get from. Of course, you know, there's no guarantee it's
42:38
gonna, you know, be all right, because it can. It was
42:44
a Saint lax. But there's your answer. If you want, for those
42:47
who are wondering where you can watch an W it's on there. And again,
42:52
if you want to pay Semurai bucks for wherever it is, throw your
42:58
boots on me. I'm just talking. I can watch TSN and have those
43:01
channels and TSN two. So okay, what did you want to say with
43:06
professional Yeah, I was gonna ask you because like I was in Toronto for
43:09
a forbidden dorm and I remember, like I wasn't in my hotel room for
43:15
a long time, but there was a time where I was in there for
43:16
a few hours and it was like, legit, nothing on television like the
43:21
TSNs or whatever. I was gonna ask, what the hell are they showing
43:24
on ts N two on a Friday night or on a Saturday that they can't
43:30
put a W on. I don't. I don't get it like that.
43:35
It's an understanding. Yeah, I get you. You're from Desion it's not
43:37
my call. So the only thing I can say is like, maybe contact
43:40
TSN and see what's about this. I was asking you, like, like
43:45
what what do they typically show? Like, well, I know, I
43:51
know you're I know you're asking, but I just it's the best way is
43:54
like you just go to the website and just scroll down with what they what
43:59
they show for on you know, on Monday at least money the Sunday money
44:05
to Sunday. But I just know right now it's for the most part,
44:07
it's showing Montreal Cana games on there, which she had to be in the
44:13
mount of region or in this case here where I am that to watch that.
44:19
But that's as an example. Sometimes it will show college football, sometimes
44:25
it shows other stuff. It just it just it depends. But I but
44:31
I do understand what you're coming from too. And on a side note,
44:36
anyone cares about the other brands? Really it is available on It is about
44:44
on Spurts at three sixty for Raw SmackDown and NXT. Okay, we don't
44:50
care. We don't care about the other brand. Yeah, I just I
44:54
know, but just one man mentioned it. Girls are wondering about where the
44:59
w We don't care about the other bread. That's yeah, I appreciate it
45:02
with me. I appreciate you giving me some concepts, like I said,
45:07
so much, and they it doesn't sound like it will be a problem for
45:09
them to Yes, I can I chime in now. Yeah, so this
45:17
is one that this whole thing with the location bull crap and the bull crap
45:23
of not being accessible as a brand. This crap is what I've been nagging
45:27
about this whole year. They've only this is the first year at least to
45:31
my knowledge, that we're doing who It'sburg shows? Two whole shows. Why
45:37
can't we get sixty nine shows? Why can't you do a show out Oakland?
45:40
Hell, you could go into collegeum and actually get that damn thing to
45:44
feel since oh, guess what, they're losing their baseball team. Maybe I
45:47
don't know, maybe tour around the Midwest, maybe a little bit more consistently.
45:52
Maybe then you'll get some more fans getting accessibility right there. You know,
45:55
this is something I wanted to break it here. I wanted to That's
46:00
the original question. Sports entertainment versus actual wrestling. For me, it's a
46:05
mixture of both. That's what I want to see, And I think maybe
46:09
I can't speak for other fans. It's presumptuous for me to speak for other
46:13
fans, but I can. I could talk maybe about what my friends and
46:17
I have talked about with wrestling, and that's basically is that we do want
46:22
it. It's great having great matches, but if they're random great matches without
46:29
a story, you're losing something there. So you do gain something by putting
46:34
on a great match, but having a good story lead up to it.
46:37
Now, we don't want a story that takes, you know, six weeks
46:42
to get to a match or stuff like that. Now, sometimes that works.
46:46
I made a post earlier on aw phantob about Julia Hart. It's been
46:52
a little over two years now since Julia Hart was missed by Malachi Black,
46:59
but hersh story has evolved. Sure, it was a slow burd at first
47:04
because of the Ray Phoenix injury that kind of stopped her from joining the House
47:07
of Black for an extended period of time, But her story has progressed incrementally
47:15
at a good pace that matches her development. But it's progressed at a good
47:21
pace and it's not getting complacent. We just on collision. We just saw
47:25
sky Blue come in. Did it mix as a possible partner long term for
47:31
Julia Hart. We have the whole avanon story going on. Thunderosa is now
47:37
going to be standing toe to toe with Julia Hart. Rijo has said that
47:42
she wants to go after the World Championship, but she's got her eye on
47:45
Julia Hart too. This is what I'm talking about, these little subtle things
47:51
that they can do to build story so that when a match eventually does happen,
47:58
there's some context there. Okay, So I want to move on to
48:02
Dynamite, and we're going a little bit long here, So what I want
48:07
to do is I want to go right into our Spicy Predictions segment. We
48:14
can look at the Dynamite card, whether you're talking about the matches themselves,
48:19
or MJF and Samoa Joe coming out, or something else that'll happen. But
48:24
go ahead and pick up maybe two of the matches or whatever storylines you want
48:30
to talk about that's going to be happening tomorrow night on Dynamite and give us
48:36
your thoughts and we'll just go down the line on that and I will give
48:40
my thoughts at the end. So Sleazy, go ahead, Well for my
48:49
Spicy Prediction tonight. Since we're going to hear from MJF and Smoke Joe,
48:57
that obviously means we're going to lead to more heavy hints at the Devil is
49:02
going to be Jungle Boy, all right, because I have a theory right
49:07
now that when they're talking, suddenly two goons are gonna ambush them and then
49:14
throw them onto real glass panes on cars. Thus two, you could maybe
49:22
have maybe three, four or five, even sixty nine, Okay, but
49:27
the factor yeah, But the fact of matter is it's only gonna be a
49:30
matter of because if we're hearing from both before their tag match, that means
49:34
we're gonna get even more heavy hinting towards Jungle Boy being the Devil. And
49:37
then when Friday or Saturday comes along, guess what it's gonna be. Jungle
49:44
Boy, It's gonna be the greatest day of my life. So anyway,
49:49
that professional what's your professional opinion outside of the greatest day in your life occur
50:00
in a few days. I predict that Jay Lethal is going to lose and
50:06
he will be the only person in the Condal Classic with zero points. I
50:13
think the story is setting up that way. This probably would lead to him
50:17
leaving Jeff Jarrett and his goons. But I predict that Jay Lethal will finish
50:22
the Condonal Classic with zero points, So I'm gonna throw it over to remain
50:30
thinking of that. The match card for through the fan heb on Reddit.
50:37
I marked down my winners here for that, So you're right, will lose,
50:45
let me win that, Boxley will win his match, Brush will win
50:51
his Real will win her match, and Commander will win his match against Rogert
50:55
Strong because because honestly I hate that guy, Rod Rod put a towel in
51:02
your mouth and shut it, man. That's I think that's the point.
51:09
Yeah, yeah, otherwise it wouldn't be funny. Yeah. So but like
51:15
I said, that's that's my predictions. Firtimore, when I said, am
51:17
I I'm right as I watch it wherever which way, you know, I'm
51:24
looking at this MGF and Samoa Joe's segment, and I'm wondering because there's so
51:29
many things. As Sleazy said, they could get attacked by two three,
51:34
four, esty nine uh goons, Jack Perry and his double mask, which
51:43
you know, of course there's swears all over the place. But aw said
51:49
that the devil has been the devil all long this has been the same players
51:54
all along, and it's not Jack Perry. I have a hard time I
52:00
believe in that. I really do think all signs lead to Jack Perry.
52:02
But here's the thing, this is what I'm interested in seeing during this MGF
52:07
and Samoa Joe's segment. Okay, so when the last time we actually saw
52:13
MGF, he was laid out out back after we get it, hit over
52:16
to head with a beer bottle, and so that made everybody think that it
52:22
could be that the devil could be Hangman Adam Page. Correct. Then last
52:30
week Hangman Adam Page was proven not to be the devil because the devil and
52:36
his goons attacked Hangman Adam Page and slammed him onto a glass windshield, which
52:45
led people to say, oh, it's real glass, cribe a river.
52:50
The devil is Jack Perry. Well, what happens this week? What happens
52:58
this week? If they do some thing else and it points a finger at
53:05
yet another. It's brilliant when you think about it. Everybody was sure that
53:12
it may have been you know that it was Hagman Haddam Page with the beer
53:15
bottle and everything, and it isn't. Now everybody sure it's Jack Perry.
53:20
What if they do something tomorrow night that proves that it isn't Jack Perry.
53:24
Interesting stuff that could be happening here all. You know, my big thing
53:34
is every day I gotta agree with you, I'm kind of odd in my
53:39
preferences. There's two stories that I'm not buying into right now that I think
53:46
need to be fleshed out better. One is Roderick Strong. I'm really not
53:53
enjoying him doing the same thing week after week after. I mean, his
53:58
biggest accomplishment in the last two months is getting out of the wheelchair. Actually,
54:04
the second think, the second place of commage was able to beat Chris
54:07
Jorco that in that street fight. If you will, that's yeah, I
54:12
didn't. I didn't care. The second person that I'm really starting to lose
54:16
interested is Tony Storm of all people. I mean, you got Rio and
54:21
Sorea fighting to uh earn the earned the world title shot at World's End tomorrow
54:30
night, which I do think Rio is going to win, but I don't
54:35
think Rio is going to win the match at World's End. But my point
54:38
behind all this is, you know, Tony Storm is doing great character work,
54:46
but it's taken away from her wrestling, and Tony Storm is a terrific
54:51
wrestler and I want to see her wrestle, you know. And she's even
54:58
her last match with that metal plate she put up her heights wrestling tights that
55:04
was horribly executed. You know, it just did nothing for me, really
55:10
didn't. I want to see Tony Storm just wrestle, right. I love
55:15
the character, but it's it's not something that I want to see. I
55:22
don't know how you guys feel about it. But a year from now,
55:25
I hope it's not the same thing because that would that would drive me nuts.
55:30
It's gonna drive me nuts as well as Calson. I just want to
55:32
say it too. It's like, uh, like I've never scort through acts
55:38
one day just for fun to see the aw's count. And she was promoting
55:45
both you know, upcoming you know shows if you will, and she's the
55:49
way she was saying brand patient diamonds, like I was like lapping my face
55:53
up, are you kidding me? Round that day and Colisio. You know,
56:02
but that's that's fine, that's entertaining. That's not on TV. That's
56:07
you know, promotional, and she's great at that. I have my problem
56:12
is. I just don't want to see her be doing the same thing on
56:15
TV that she's doing now a year from now. I mentioned Julia Hart,
56:20
right, she's doing the same thing that she was doing, you know,
56:25
two years ago, basically, But it was it's evolved, It's continually evolved,
56:32
you know. So that's my point. If if Tony Storm doesn't evolve,
56:38
then it's it's going to be it's gonna hurt Tony Storm in the end,
56:43
because she is a darn good wrestler and I don't want to see her
56:47
wrestling overshadowed by a character work arc that potentially could get old for other people.
57:00
One last question that I want to ask everybody. We the final matches
57:10
are coming up in the Gold League. I think there's everybody has to fight
57:15
two more matches in the Blue League. If I'm not mistaken, we've already
57:22
established that. Who was I think it was Renee said that, Well,
57:29
somebody said that Jay Lethal was going to go winless. That the pressure as
57:32
the one that's brought it up. Beniel Daniel Garcia. The Blue League is
57:38
also winless. Do we think that he's gonna win a match? I mean
57:44
he's got uh, he's got Brody King left. I believe, M chance
57:52
you know now that you bring that up, I don't. I don't know,
57:55
because I did say that I thought d is going to be the only
58:00
so without a win, and that was because I didn't realize that Denny Garcia
58:06
is going against Berdy King. So I don't know. Maybe Dane Garcia also
58:10
has zero wins. Yeah, I mean, you'll look at it this way.
58:16
I still believe that I do believe that Eddie Kingston's gonna win this tournament.
58:28
Whether you like Eddie or not, I think that it's Eddie Kingston's tournament.
58:34
And whether that's a good thing or a bad thing, I'll leave it
58:37
up to the community to decide. But well, this is the first actually
58:43
thinking Eddie's gonna win something. Oh, I've I've picked Eddie to win a
58:49
lot sleazy. Do I want him to win? No, But I've picked
58:53
him to win because it makes sense. I've picked him to lose the first
58:59
match in this tournament because I thought it made sense. Because Eddie is at
59:02
his best when he's an underdog, when the odds are stacked against him.
59:08
That's when his character is the most dynamic, is the most believable. And
59:17
you know, sincerely speaking right now, I mean, he's at six points.
59:22
I believe it is because I think the the b lou League thing that
59:27
I put up is incorrect. But he's at six points. But so is
59:32
Brody king you know. And I think that we're gonna see, you know,
59:39
Eddie Kingston somehow sneak his way into this tournament semi finals, and I
59:46
think he's gonna win the whole thing. Let's face it kind of suck for
59:52
Eddie to put two of his belts on the line and then have him taken
59:55
away due to booking. You know, let's be real here. Well,
1:00:02
so I forget again, like as I said on Shiit Talk, that he's
1:00:07
the one has to go home, is to put every in a line for
1:00:09
the reason that like, let's have let's have some real rustling boys. No,
1:00:15
And and if he does that, if he pulls this miracle and three
1:00:22
fourth Street type thing, it, it's gonna be kind of awesome because prove
1:00:29
that not. I guess in the long run, it was the right thing
1:00:32
to do. Put those belts on the line, to show that I could
1:00:36
do this. Or disagree, No, I mean I I no, I
1:00:40
agree with you. I mean, it's it's one of those things where you
1:00:44
know, that's what his character is, you know, and I genuinely like
1:00:50
the underdog story. I think most people do root for the underdogs, and
1:00:53
Eddie kings Did is an underdog story. You know. Whether whether he does
1:01:00
deserves to win or not, that's up to everybody's interpretation. I'm just saying
1:01:05
that I do believe. You know, there's a large part of me that
1:01:08
believes that this tournament right now is in Eddie Kingston's hands. That's it.
1:01:14
Now that you mentioned that Telson and I thought about the belts that Eddie Kingston
1:01:19
currently has new Japan Pro Wrestling Strong Championship and then also the RH Championship.
1:01:25
I don't know, Like maybe call me craziness is probably stupid thought, but
1:01:30
like, how bit official can this Condental Classic be for r O eight Because
1:01:37
they're gonna it's gonna be a triple crowd champion, So I assume that person
1:01:42
also is gonna defend the belt on RH programming Like no, no, he
1:01:47
won, they won't. Are you sure? I'm sure? I mean literally,
1:01:53
I mean, Eddie Kingston may defend the belt on R O H programming,
1:01:58
but all the other people that are on this list with the shot at
1:02:01
actually winning the belt or the belts, they're gonna be on a w programming.
1:02:09
Okay, where would you put the belt gain, like the tier?
1:02:14
Would it be above TNT and International Championship or below it? That's well,
1:02:23
I personally feel the internet you said between the TNT and the International Championship?
1:02:29
Yeah, where would you ran it? Well? I personally have felt for
1:02:32
months that the International Championship is the least prestigious championship in all of AW.
1:02:39
I just you know, the whole orange cassidy is the AW International champion is
1:02:47
boring to me, It really is. I mean, I'm a firm believer,
1:02:52
even the wrestlers that I like, like the House of Black Julia Hart,
1:02:58
I am a firm believer that that nobody should Roman raids the hell out
1:03:01
of these belts. You know, they need to change hands to keep them
1:03:08
interesting. Jay Cargill was boring to me because she held onto the belt for
1:03:14
too long. Chris Stantlander lost that belt at exactly the right time. The
1:03:22
Trios Championship is boring to me right now because it's just stop being defended,
1:03:30
you know, and the Trios there's no trios, teams really waiting in the
1:03:35
wings. They're making them up as they go, and it just doesn't make
1:03:37
any sense to me. But yeah, I mean this Continental Belt, where
1:03:43
does it rank? We'll see who gets you know, I'm just gonna be
1:03:46
honest with you here. If the Continental Belt hangs hangs around the waste of
1:03:52
somebody like John Moxley, swear Strickland, Jay White, for example, Brian
1:03:58
Danielson on Trotty, I'll lead a low. I'm fine with it. I
1:04:02
think that that belt would definitely be above the TNT title. If it's hanging
1:04:08
around the waist of Eddie Kingston, it's just not a good belt. I'm
1:04:12
sorry. That's just the way I feel. Now other people may feel differently,
1:04:16
and I respect that, but for me, Eddie Kingston, just looking
1:04:23
at these rosters, these twelve wrestlers, I can honestly say eight of them
1:04:30
are at least seven of them are far and away better wrestlers than Eddie Kingston
1:04:35
and many to other people on the roster. So anyway, that's just my
1:04:45
opinion, and I guess on that note, we will just end the show.
1:04:51
This was ignition from aw fan of and I want to thank Sleazy Renee
1:04:58
and a professional did a great hosting job of your segments there, bro,
1:05:02

Christmas and and uh New Year's, people will be traveling, spending time with
1:05:19
their families, maybe getting you know, maybe having to work off the holiday
1:05:25
meals. You know, that's what I'll be doing. Yeah, probably the
1:05:29
same thing here. I don't think I'll be around for the next episode because
1:05:33
I'll be with my family where I'm at and that makes sense. But and
1:05:41

1:05:47
so we do have right now, We're gonna go ahead and go ahead
1:05:51
