AEW Dynamite 3/18/26 Review | Hey Tony, WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT "CRAZY" EPISODE? · Solomonster Sounds Off

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: So after an excellent Revolution pay per view on Sunday,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: we had the post pay per view edition of Dynamite.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: And there has been a trend in the past where
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Tony Khan usually does not have full access to a
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: lot of his names coming out of the pay per
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: view because, as somebody in the live chat just said,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: it feels like after every pay per view, half the
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: roster is in concussion protocol, which is what happens when
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: there's this insatiable need for every match on the pay
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: per view to feel like it's a main event, and
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: guys go out there and they do all kinds of
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: crazy shit. Unfortunately, tonight was one of those nights, and
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Tony Khan when the pay per view is over on Sunday,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: in the scrum, he actually went out of his way
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: to mention that this episode of Dynamite, it was going
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: to be a crazy show, crazy crazy episode of Dynamite.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: The only thing crazy about tonight's show was honestly just
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: how bored this crowd sounded for large parts of it,
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: and typically the aw audience very enthusiastic bunch cradon Fresno. Tonight,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, I can't speak to how it was
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: in the building they're live, but just watching it on television,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: they did not seem to be as into this show
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: as you would normally find that on a Wednesday night.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: And I don't blame him. I don't blame him based
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: on the show that they had tonight. What is there
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: really to get too overly excited about. We did have
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: will Ospray. This was his first match back in many,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: many months. He had his double fusion back in September,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: and so he is back in the ring. Darby Allen,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: he put the dogs to sleep tonight and he staked
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: his claim. He is now going to be one of
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: many waiting in line. He's throwing his name in the
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: hat to challenge MJF for the aw World Championship. Kenny
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Omega not their live, but he wants Swerve to put
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: his number one contendership, which evidently he now has. Okay,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: he wants him to put his number one kin tendership
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: on the line in a rematch, and Swerve answered that
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: later in the show and said, Okay, you want me
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: to put my number one contendership on the line, I'll
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: do that, but you got to put something up yourself.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: And what he wants Kenny Omega to put up is
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: his EVP power. He wants to be an executive vice
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: president in AW. Well, it has been a whole bunch
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: of them. I can understand why he wants to be
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: an EVP in AW And so now we're getting a
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: rematch between the two of them next week on TV.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: I presume the winner will then go on to Dynasty
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: in Vancouver, one would assume, although again there's about eight
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: different people who have said they want to be the
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: AW World Champion. Tony Storm was supposed to wrestle on
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: the show in a no holds barred match and I
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: would not at all be surprised if she was one
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: of the victims here of not medically cleared legit.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: So we have to substitute someone in there now.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Again, I believe we have somebody in the chat who
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: was there live. And in their defense, apparently they were
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: never told that Mina Shirakawa was subbing for Tony Storm.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: They were expecting a Tony Storm Arina Shaffir no Hol's
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: bard match, and then Mina shira Cowa's music hits and
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: she comes out, and she came out to no reaction,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: And apparently it's because the live crowd was not clued
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: in as to the change in match, and if they were,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: evidently they didn't care very much. But that's what one
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: person said. But Mina actually won. That may be the
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: biggest surprise of the entire night, Mina Shirakawa. They actually
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: gave her a win here on Dynamite. I holy shit,
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, I was blown away when I saw the
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: end of that. And then we get to the main event,
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: and of course it's a trios match, because of course
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: it is has nothing to do with the Trio's titles.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: But it's a trios match.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: And I'm watching this and I see Trent Burretta and
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Rocky Romero in the main event of this show, and
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: I just sit here and I say to myself, why.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: Why?
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: As soon as I saw them come to the ring,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: before the bell even rang, the match was over.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: The match was over. Why are these men in.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: The main event of your follow up Dynamite to one
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: of your best shows that you have had in a
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: very long time. That Revolution pay per view was quite great.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: I would say it's the best pay per view of
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: the year so far. But it's the only aw pay
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: per view we've had so far.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: This year. How do you.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Follow that up with the main event like that. It's
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: just it's one of those things that it just makes
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: me scratch my head.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: When the match was over, the Young Bucks they cut
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: a promo. It brought out Cop and Christian, then FTR
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: came out. This all led to the announcement Cope and
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Christian let the Bucks know that they are getting a
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: rematch with FTR at Dynasty in Vancouver. They are next
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: in line to get a shot at the AW World
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Tag Team titles. So that match was also made official.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: As far as Dynasty, it was the only match made
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: official the Kennyan Swerve match Again, that's on TV next week,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: but that's how they went off the air with some
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: tag team drama involving those teams. The Young Bucks have said,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: we have no problem working our way back up the
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: ladder into tag team contention, so we could become four
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: time tag team champions.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: So they're going to take a little.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: Bit of time build themselves back up, perhaps double or
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: nothing New York City, maybe that's where they get their
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: title shot. But in Canada it will be Coping Christian
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: challenging FTR. We had no segment on this show involving
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Kenoski Takeshta. In fact, he was not even on the show.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: There was nothing with him and the don Kallis family
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: after what happened at Revolution, I said, like, okay, now
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: there should be some sort of follow up to this,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: because he failed in his bid to win the Continental
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Championship from John Moxley, and even worse, when the match
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: was over he shook hands with Moxley, and outside of
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: a passing comment in a backstage promo by Okada, there
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: was nothing. Don Kallis wasn't even there. He was facetiming
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: into the show. Even don Kallis wasn't on the show.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: He didn't even wrestle on Sunday, but there he was
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: on his phone or whoever's phone, John Cruz, whoever's phone.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: It was, so there was no follow up to that
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: story on this show. MJF was not there live. And
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: even though he wasn't there live, he had the best
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: thing on the entire show. He cut a promo after
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: the Texas Deathmatch on Sunday, all bloodied, leaning up against
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: the wall. Great fucking promo. Too bad he wasn't there live.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: Apparently he was over at Disney World celebrating, So MJF
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: was not on the show live. Hangman wasn't there at all,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: and according to fight Ful, he is going to be
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: taking time off of television, so I guess that vacation
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: started tonight. Kenny Omega was not there live outside of
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: that pre tape promo. This is what happens a common theme.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: We get a lot of pre tape promos, but some
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: big names that don't show up on the Dynamite coming
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: out of the.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Pay per view. This was no different.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Ronda Rousey was not there. You get no argument out
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: of me. I certainly don't have any great desire to
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: see her on my TV. But anybody wondering if they
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: were gonna follow up because they did announce the Tony
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: and Marina Shafir match. Tony ended up not wrestling in
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: that match, but there was nothing with Ronda on the show.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: In case you were wondering about that. There just was
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: not really anything on this show to get excited about.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: They can never follow up a hot pay per view
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: with a hot show. I don't know why Tony Kahm
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: would go out there on Sunday, and.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: So it's gonna be a crazy, crazy night. I'm dynamite.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, I get he's always in promoter mode, but again,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: don't make promises that you cannot keep. Although in his
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: mind he may have thought, oh my god, this is
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: the crazy show. You know, Darby Allen and Gabe Kid Right,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: they're beating each other up.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: We got blood. Who gives a shit? We get blood
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: every fucking week.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: There are gonna be people who point to what happened
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: to the coffin match, Well that was pretty crazy, dude.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: That's a standard dynamite. Did you did you see what
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: we saw on Sunday, especially in the main event, takes
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: a lot to be crazy on these shows. We always
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: get the blood, we get the biting, the barboa, the
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: three bees, blood biting in barbedwi or we had it
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: on Sunday, we had it tonight. What was so crazy
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: about this show? Don't promise something that you can't deliver on.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: Don't get people's expectations up. Oh he must got something,
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: he must have something up his sleeve. What's he promising here?
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: The answer was nothing. They just can't follow up on
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: these big shows end up missing a bunch of people,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: whether they are in concussion protocol or some of them
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: are hurt every time.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: They only know one speed. We had Speedball and Mark.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Davis for ten minutes on this show, and we had
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: again Rocky Romero and Trent Burretta in the main event.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: What are we doing here?
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: This is your aw Dynamite review. It is March eighteenth,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty six.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 9:07

• 9:27

• 9:30

  Speaker 1: the bottom of that image, that is Gabe Kid's dead
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: body being wheeled into the arena by Darby Allen, and
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: then right next to his carcass is the solemn Monster sign.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: And then, for whatever reason, Tony Shavanni an illustration of
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Tony Shavanni right above the SoundOff sign. But anyway, shout

  Speaker 1: Let's bring up the wheel here find out how many
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: likes we need to be the booker.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: We had a.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: A crazy night on Monday. It was insane. Actually, to
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: be honest with you, I tell you in a second here,
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: oh we I don't think we're doing be the booker tonight.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Seven hundred likes is the goal. It's good to have goals,
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: that's all I'll say. Seven hundred is the goal for tonight.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I think that the card that
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: we booked and be the booker on Monday Night after
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: the Raw review was crazier than what we got on
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Dynamite tonight by far, by far.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: What was that? What was that fucking main event we
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: booked on Monday Night?
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: The Three Stages of Hell stuff where It literally was
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: like three stages of hell. It just went from bad
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: to worse. That was crazier than anything we got on
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Dynamite tonight. But anyway, it looks like be the booker
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: may may have to wait for Friday, but hey, seven
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: hundred likes is the goal. So there you go, right
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: out of the gate here. At the beginning of the show,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: they mentioned that Tony Storm was medically disqualified from wrestling
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: tonight after she was taken out backstage earlier today, and
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: they showed footage of Rene Piquette frantically entering the locker room.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Luther was just in shambles, couldn't even get the words
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: out to explain what had happened. And the door swings
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: open and we see Tony Storm laying there and there
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: was a giant pool of blood next to her head.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, it looked like somebody had put a glock
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: to her head and pulled the trigger. I mean, it
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: was like, what the hell happened to this woman? Clearly
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: she was medically disqualified for pretty much anything tonight, and
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: so we were informed that Mina Shirakawa would be taking
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: her place later on in the no holds Barred match
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: with Marina Shaffir and then fresh off of his return
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: at Revolution, Will Osprey made his in ring return, his
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: first match in six months, against Blake Christian. That was
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: his appointment. Yes, no, would be the booker. Only five
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: hundred and thirty people at here with these seven hundred legs.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: How's that going to work? How are we going to
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: manifest that the math is not mathing.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: Anyway?
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Brian Danielson on commentary talked about how much more invasive
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: the surgery that Osprey had on his neck was than
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: the operation that he had in twenty fourteen, and yet
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: it took Osprey less time to recover and come back
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: to the ring than it did Danielson. So it was
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: good to have someone like him on commentary in this
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: situation because he can relate to it. He can relay
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: his own personal experience as someone who went through basically
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: the same thing that Osprey did, so he can offer
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: a perspective that you can't get from Tony Schavani or
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: from ex caliber. So again, Blake Christian was the opponent
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: here and he hit a neck breaker and a DDT
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: which gave Osprey a chance to sell his neck. He
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: had the kinesio tape on the back of his neck.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: In the end, though Christian set up for his own
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: version of a hidden blade, Osprey was able to counter
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: that with a back elbow and he hit his own
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: hidden blade for the win. He gave Blake a lot here,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: and I could see the logic behind throwing somebody like
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: him in there. I mean, it's Blake Christian, right, it's
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: someone It's a body to put in the ring with
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: him that is going to just look good for Osprey's offense.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: He'll bounce around, right, He'll give Osprey a chance to
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: kind of work work from behind and make a comeback
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: there at the end, and he doesn't have to do
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: anything too crazy. Blake Christian was the one who was
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: really doing all the crazy stuff in this match. All
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: the big dives and all the big you know, high
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: spots and whatnot mostly came from him, which is good
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: because right now Ospray's his first match back. I don't
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: really see the need for him to be going out
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: there and doing anything crazy until he has that first
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: big pay per view match, right, save it for the
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: match with Moxley, save it for the matches that matter.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Best thing we need is for him to end up
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: back on the shelf with another neck surgery. So that's
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: why Blake Christian was his opponent here now. After the match,
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Osprey took the microphone and he addressed John Moxley and
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: he asked him if he would like to know the
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: biggest difference between the two of them. Do you want
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: to know the biggest differences between you and me? Osprey
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: doesn't need a weapon to snap someone's neck. He could
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: do it with his bare fucking hands. And they bleeped
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: fucking obviously, So that brought out Moxley and Wheeler Dah
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: through the crowd. Osprey, though, wasn't waiting for them to
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: get there. He attacked them in the crowd. He dropped Dah.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: He brought Moxley inside where he was setting him up
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: for something, maybe a tiger driver. We'll never know, because
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: Pac hit the ring and he booted him down and
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: then pack locked on the brutalizer. They sent security out
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: there to pull him off because he was.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Just a madman. He would not let go of the hold.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: So the Bang Banggang's music starts to play and Osprey
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: is still down in the ring, so they make their
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: way out on stage for the next match. Osprey, though,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: gets back up, he charges down the aisle, he dives
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: onto Pack and the two of them brawl to the
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: back and amidst all of the carnage, it just sort
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: of went directly into the next match. As far as
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Osprey and the Death Riders, Moxley was This is the
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: first time since the Continental Classic where John Moxley really
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: was not, you know, even in like the match that
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: came after this was really not treated, you know, by
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: the crowd as the beloved babyface because he's been a
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: babyface ever since the Continental Classic, not the other members
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: of the Death Riders so much. And now it's I
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: don't want to say it's back to the way it was,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: but it was very weird on Sunday just watching him
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: out there with Osprey and I and the realization that, Okay,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: how is this going to work because the fans have
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: been cheering him, but obviously they're good to cheer for Osprey.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Osprey won for revenge for what the Death Riders did
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: to him over the summer, so that makes sense. But
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know how they're gonna position Moxley in this
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: going forward. I mean, they did nothing tonight to play
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: off the comment that ex Caliber made on commentary the
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: other night about how you know he's been beloved by
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: the fans, but you know now it's time for him
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: to pay for past sins.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: You know, there was no.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: There was no promo, there was no there was nothing
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: to really give you a sense of which way they're
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: going to go with that, other than Osprey's promo where
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: he basically said, I'm gonna break your fucking neck with
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: my bare hands. So we're just waiting on when they
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: do the Osprey Moxley match. I kind of hope it
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: isn't for the continental title, you know, and he can
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: get away with it by saying that this is personal,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: this is not about championships. I just don't see. So
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: will Osprey wins the continental title, who cares? He should
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: be in the owen, He should be the he should
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: be prepping him to challenge for the AWU World title,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: the continental title in this situation where like doesn't mean anything.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't mind them just wrestling non title when the time comes,
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: and what are you gonna do? You're gonna put them
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: in the ring together and have Moxley beat him like
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: he's been beating everybody else. It's gonna beat will Osprey.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: That doesn't seem very likely to me, But it turns
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: out Moxley and Youda were coming out anyway for a
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: match against Juice Robinson and Ace Austin.
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: Can I say this about Wheeler DA.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: You know, Wheeler DA got his head shaved recently, and
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: he's out there and he looks like the most generic
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: creator wrestler that you will ever see with the bald head.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Uh Like, if a wrestler could actually have negative aura,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: it would be Wheeler Dah Like, it would look exactly
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: like Wheeler DA. It's just like, I'm I'm watching him
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: out there, and I'm like, he's been part of the
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Death Riders this entire time. The idea is that it
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: would help elevate him in some way. Him and Garcia
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: both Like I just I look at the time that
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: they have spent as part of what was supposed to
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: be the top heel faction in this company, and I
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: just look at it and I just think, Man, what
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: a waste, What a waste? You just send Juice outside
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: with a BUSSICU knee dove out onto a Moxley then
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: dropped Ace Austin with a Death Rider for the win.
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: This went over ten minutes. None of it mattered. I mean,
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: this had to be a win for the Death Riders. Obviously,
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: coming out of the Moxley stuff with Osprey, we got
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: a video package on the history between Darby Allen and
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: Gabe Kid ahead of tonight's Coffin match. So we go
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: backstage to Gabe Kid, who was always a ten in
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: terms of his intensity on a.
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: Scale of one.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Actually he's always he's always a fourteen on a scale
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: of one to ten. And he's not very happy about
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: what happened on Sunday because if you remember, he got
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: zip tied I think to the stage or the ramp
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: and was unable to get back in the ring and
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: help his team, and so the Dogs they lost on Sunday.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: Gabe Kid was not very happy about that, so he
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: said he's not waiting to get into the ring. He
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: tells Darby to meet him in the parking lot.
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: Next.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: I think he called him a rat, but that was
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: coming up next. But first we had a pre tape
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: promo from Sunday Night with Kenny Omega, who was not
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: there live, and he challenged Swerve to put his number
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: one contendership because I guess by beating Brody King, it
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: just affirmed him as the new number one contender for
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: the aw World title. And to be fair, he beat
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Kenny Omega. First, you beat Kenny Omega, you beat Brody King? Sure,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: I guess that would make you number one contender. So
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: he wants to back one more time and he wants
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: the number one contendership on the line. If Swerve, I guess,
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: basically has the guts to do it, we would hear
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: from Swerve later in the show. So now we cut
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: to the parking lot. It is coffin match time. I
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: guess by default, this would be the craziest thing on
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: the entire show. Hardly made for a crazy show. But anyway,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: he's out there in the parking lot and it's you know,
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: daylight outside. It's still on the West coast. So he's
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: waiting for Darby to show up. And here comes Darby Allen.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: He drives in, tries to run this man down. He's
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: driving a Rundown town car. So he pulls up, he
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: gets out.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Of the car.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: These two were brawling there. They're, you know, beating the
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: crap out of each other. Darby I think he put
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: his fingers in his eyes right. He was trying to
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: gouge his eyeballs out of his head. And he grabs
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: a rag and he puts some sort of substance or chemical.
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know what it was. It looked like I
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: look orange. I don't know what the fuck it was,
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: the tomato sauce. I don't know what he put on
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: that rag.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: But whatever substance it was, he places it over Kid's
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: face and he wasn't unconscious, but he was basically down
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: on the ground. So then Darby takes him and he
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: throws him into the trunk and he locks him in
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: the trunk of his car. Darby then gets back in
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the car. He begins he guns it. There was a
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: I don't know if there was like a ramp, there
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: was something, probably a little ramp there, and he hits
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: the ramp. The car ends up doing a flip and
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: the car lands on the roof. Now there were a
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: bunch of jump cuts here the way they shot this.
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: So Darby crawls out through the busted passenger side window,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: crawls out of the car. He grabs the release hatch
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: for the hood, so the hood again the car's upside down.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: The hood pops open, Gabe Kid's dead body falls out
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: of the trunk and he's laying there. Okay, So then
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: Darby retrieves a production.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Case from somewhere. He wheels it on in.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: He loads Gabe Kid's carcass on top of the production case,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: face down, and he's gonna roll it into the arena.
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: So basically, Gabe Kid did his best Johnny Gargano impersonation,
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: so he begins to roll him back towards the arena.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: They cut back to the announcers or ringside, and it
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: took forever for them to make it into the arena.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: The crowd was church silent during all of this. Once
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: they did, though, make it out to ringside, they rang
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: the bell. There was a small wooden coffin on the
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: floor outside at ringside. Darby pulls a straight jacket out
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: of the crate and he places it on Gabe Kid.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: He then grabs a skateboard, Kid kicks him in the dick,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: and he tosses him into the ring steps. Darby comes
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: up busted open. Gabe Kid begins to bite at the
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: forehead and now he's got Darby's blood all over his mouth.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: The visual of him in the straight jacket with blood
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: all over his mouth. It was actually quite the visual.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: It was very appropriate for Gabe Kid. So Kid then
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: opened the coffin. He slammed the lid on Darby's fingers. Yes,
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: he got blood. I know, it's very rare, very rare
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: that we get blood on this show. In the ring,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: Kid tried for an avalanche pile driver. Darby bit his
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: way free. He had an avalanche code red. Instead, Darby
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: hit a scorpion death drop. He went up top. Kid
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: kicked the referee into the ropes. Darby got crotched, so
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: that allowed Kid to hit a power slime with no
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: hands because again he's in a straight jacket. They ended
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: up back outside. Darby is in the coffin. He bites
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: at Gabe Kid's nose. It's a lot of biting on
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: this show. You notice that Sunday too. We had biting
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: on Sunday, we had biting tonight. So he tried to
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: close the lid. That's when he got bit on the nose.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: A couple of coffin drops back in the ring connect
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: before he drags Kid back outside. Then Darby goes back inside.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: He hits his suicide dive and he knocks Gabe Kid.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: The impact knocks him backwards into the coffin. The lid
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: then slams shut. Darby Allen is the winner of the
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: coffin match. So after the match, Darby takes the microphone.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: He's all bleeding, said that he would hold down the
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: throttle until he either sees God or the AEW World Championship.
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Which one do you think he'll see?
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: First? Said Maxwell, I'm coming for you, coming, you know, coming.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: For the Championship. Not meant to be taken in a
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: different way. So anyway, he put MJF on notice. That
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: got surprisingly no reaction from this crowd. It wasn't like
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: the crowd let out a big cheer, Yeah, fuck yeah,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: we want to see Darby Allen challenging for the title.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: It was very quiet, and then they just played his music.
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: It was kind of awkward, to be honest with you,
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: I will say this. Unfortunately, not a good night for
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: the Dogs. Yes, not a good week really. The Dogs
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: lost at Revolution and then Gabe Kid, who was one
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: third of the Dogs, he came in here tonight all
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: full of piss and vinegar.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna kill you Darby Allen and he lost. The
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: Dogs lost again.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: This is quite the introduction for these guys as a
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: trio here in this company, bunch of losers.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: They are very good as far as this match goes.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: Again, they did some crazy stuff, but it's Darby Allen
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: and we've seen him do stunts like this in the past,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: so he kind of knew what to expect coming into it.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: They did some stuff outside, once they brought it back
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: inside again, it was you know, the blood and the
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: biting and pretty much what you would expect from a
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: match like this. I was surprised Darby one. Now I'm
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: not surprised. If they're going to position him as a
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: contender for mjf's title, then he should be winning. But
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: I just thought, well, you've got this new trio, you've
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: got this new group, and they're still in this company anyway.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: They're still very new and they didn't have a very
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: good night on Sunday, so this was their opportunity to
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: come here and rebound and that didn't happen. And frankly,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: there's no need to extend this out. Like to me,
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: this was the end of Darby and the Dogs. So
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: now Darby has staked his claim, you know, he wants
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: to be, if not next in line. He wants to
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: be in line for a shot at the aw World title,
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: and I don't know when that match is going to happen.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: He'll be coming for MJF at some point. I don't
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: see that happening anytime soon. I mean, you got Kenny
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: o'megan swore of stricklet literally fighting over the number one
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: contender ship. But yeah, I don't know what else to
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: say about the dogs. I mean, David Finley debuted on
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: this show what two weeks ago, and he already feels
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: like a non factor, already feels like a total non
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: factor on this show. And he wasn't even on the show,
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: by the way, there was no Clark Connors, there was
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: no David Findley. You know, Gabe Kid was there. He
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: was gonna do it alone. He was gonna do it
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: all by himself, and didn't work out too well for him.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: We got footage of Jack Perry. He was getting ready
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: for the show tonight. This was a wacky little vignette here.
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: He was at home.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: He was packing for the show, so he had his
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: trusty knife and he had his new National championship. He
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: leaves the house because Lucasaurus pulls up outside in the
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Jurassic Express bus. He's looking at his watch. He's waiting
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: for Jack to come out. You know, we got to
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: get to dynamite. And Jack stops and he has a
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: giant he has a giant nut in his hand. Okay,
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: he's got his nut in his hand. And then his
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: pet squirrel, I guess, comes and takes the nut. Okay,
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: So then he goes into the bus. They travel all
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: the way up to Fresno from wherever they were in
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: southern California, and then they pull up to the arena.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: Perry gets out of the bus. He says revolution was
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: a great night for him and his family, but tonight
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: he teams with two men who are like brothers to him.
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: The young Bucks walk in at this point. They said
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: that it was a rough night of revolution, but what
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: example would they be setting for their kids if they
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: just gave up. So instead, they're going to fight back
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: to the top. And it starts tonight against Rpgvice, someone
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: they thought was a friend, Kazuchko Kada, and then Lucasaurus
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: who was the bus driver bitch er and does the
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: dinosaur growl to end the segment. This was this was something.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: I can't say it was anything great, but it was
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: certainly something. Now.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: Prince Nana was in the ring, asked the crowd, did
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: we all see what Swerve did it Revolution? Did we
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: see the carnage that he inflicted? That's why we call
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: him the most dangerous man in aw And he introduces Swerve.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: Strickland makes his way out to the ring. There's a
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: chair in the ring. He sits in the chair. They
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: turned down the lights, they put a spotlight on him,
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: and he just says power says, this past Sunday of Revolution,
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: me and Brody King, we went to war, but the
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: only true winners in war are those with power. Says,
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: if you ask me, did I enjoy beating that man
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: in his home state?
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Yes? I did? Am I satisfied?
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: No, because the power lies elsewhere and sometimes the more
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: important than the titles. Says, He's dealt with power ever
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: since he was seventeen in the military.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: Forgot about that.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Then actually goes back to when he was a killshot
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: in Luca Underground. He had that hell of War match
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: with Dante Fox. I remember they talked about his background
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: in the military even then, so he mentioned that. He
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: mentioned it was you know, when I was traveling on
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: the Indies when I was stuck in developmental truth be told.
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: If it wasn't for the young Bucks at Dynasty last year,
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: I would be a two time AAW World champion right now,
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: which brings him to Kenny Omega says he's the number
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: one contender Swerve is for the AW world title. Omega
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: wants that Swerve has all the leverage, though, says, what
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: is Swerve? What does he get from giving Kenny what
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: he wants? Why would he just Okay, sure, I'll my
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: title shot on the line against Kenny Omega again. What's
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: in it for me? He goes, there is one thing
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: that interests him. That's his power. So so you want
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: this rematch, offer up your EVP status.
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: But when I beat you.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: I Swerve Strickland will become aw's new executive vice president.
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: And we found out later on in the show per
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: Tony Kahan the match is now official. It will take
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: place on Dynamite next week. It'll be Kenny Omega one
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: on one against Swerve Strickland. I'll say this, it could
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: be interesting giving Swerve some EVP power depending on how
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: they play that out on TV. I don't feel like
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: they do. They don't always do a very good job
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: when it comes to I don't know, I just segments
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: that you would expect to maybe play out backstage. If
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: they want to have some fun with the stipulation stuff
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: like that.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know what they would do with it, but
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: I'm sure he would take his power and abuse it
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: in some way. You know, on television. He would make
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: maybe certain people's lives hell. It could be interesting for
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: a little bit. It's a different approach. At the end
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: of the day, it's really about the championship.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: You know. He could talk about.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Power, he could talk about EVP stat It's the one
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: thing they've done a very good job of this year
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: is really building competition up in the main events scene
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: for MJF and building up all of these different challengers.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: And really the power lies with the title. The power
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: it's not about EVP, it's not The power lies.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: With the championship. That's how it should be.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: That's how they've treated it so far, and that really
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: is the most important thing here.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: If Swarve's going to win.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: And they want to add that little wrinkle and they
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: have some fun stuff planned for him, flexing his muscles
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: as EVP. I suppose that could be interesting, but I
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, we're heading into Vancouver a dynasty
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: and now Kenny is getting his rematch next week, and
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: he got this guy to put his title shot on
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: the line.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: I would think it.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: Would be very tempting to have a main event on
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: that show of MJF and Kenny Omega in Canada, you know,
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: for the championship.
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: Although we already have a couple of.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Other Canadians going for the tag team titles on that show.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know if all the Canadians are going to
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: get their title opportunities in the same night. Anyway, I'm
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: looking forward to the match. Their first match was great.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: I'm sure the second match next week will be great
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: as well. As far as this other stuff, I don't know,
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: I mean the EVP stuff. It's Kenny Omega doesn't even
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: really talk about being an EVP, you know. It's kind
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: of like they don't really dwell on it. The Young
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: Bucks did, that was their whole gimmick for months and
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: months and months, right EVPs abusing their power swerve talked
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: about it.
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: In his promo. Kenny doesn't really do that though, so
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: it's a little odd in that regard, I guess, but
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: I just want to see the match. That's really what
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: I'm interested in.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: Speedball Mike Bailey, Speaking of matches, I really didn't care
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: to see Speedball Mike Bailey one on one with Mark Davis.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Nothing on the line here.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: Just a fairly random match. Obviously, they were on opposing
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: sides in the trios match on Sunday, so it wasn't
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: totally random. There was that connection there. But Mark Davis
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: was very upset about losing the one championship that he's
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: ever held in his aw career, and it was taken
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: away from him within like a week.
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: Not a bad match. Again.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: They have found a way to utilize Davis on these
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: shows rather than just sideline him until his partner comes back, which,
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: considering the size of the roster, would be very easy
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: for Tony kN to do. It's like, okay, well we'll
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: kind of slide this guy off to the side, and
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: we have all these other people I could be using
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: by putting him in the Kallis family. He's that guy
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: that you could just send out there and lose match,
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: because that's all he does. You know, he goes out
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: there when he won the Trio's titles and got the
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: pin in that match. I was very surprised, and then
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: of course he lost it a week later, which is
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: not surprising. But when he's out there, you know what
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: his role is. You know his role is to go
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: out there. He's a great brawler. I've kind of become
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: a low key fan of Mark Davis, but at the
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: same time, you know when he comes out, you kind
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: of know how things are going to go. Him against
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: Speedball one on one, it's like, eh, all right, it
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: just just kind of just feels like we're trying to
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: kill some time on the show because we don't have
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: our big guns available.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: You know, you want to come out. I feel like you.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Want to come out to the extent that you can,
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: guns blazing on a show like this to really follow
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: up on the momentum that you built up from this
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: pay per view on Sunday, and they did. I mean,
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: they had a lot of I felt like momentum and
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: goodwill coming out of that show.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: It was an excellent show.
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: And then you just end up with something like this
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: on the show and it's like, eh, you know, Davis
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: late in the match, he hit a gut wrench into
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: the pile Driver that I wish they protected better, but
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: he's not a priority. He's not a priority in terms of.
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: The booking on the show.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: He's too low down, so protecting his finish is not
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: really the goal.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: Here. Speedball kicked out of it and he won with.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: The Ultimate Weapon, so there you go. You know, normally
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: Kevin Knight has been the one who's been getting some
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: shine in singles matches, so tonight they decided to give
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: it to Speedball. Okay, again, not very exciting, but okay, fine.
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: We got footage of MJF sitting backstage post revolution in
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: the back this right here, this was a great promo, says,
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Greatest dog collar match of all time, Greatest iron Man
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: match of all time, which is a shoot. It is indeed,
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: greatest Texas deathmatch of all time, Greatest AEW World.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: Champion of all time.
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: Talked about how you know, normally the adrenaline is flowing,
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: you don't really feel the pain. He goes, but I
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: gotta tell you, the adrenaline it's wear enough, just a
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: little bit, and I can feel every bump in every bruise,
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: but it doesn't matter because I won. I won, and
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: so it's all worth it. Today he turned thirty years old,
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: which that was on Sunday. He turned thirty, so he
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: said happy birthday to me. I've accomplished more in my
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: thirty years here than most Hall of famers have in
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: their entire career. I'm way ahead a schedule, so that
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Hangman Page was a speed bump in my way. But
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: he's off the board now and he says, I got
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: another twenty years in Me got another twenty good years.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: And the only name that will be regarded as the
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: best wrestler in the world is me. Got a one
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: way ticket to goat status, the Wolf of Wrestling, Salt
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: of the Earth, generational talent, Big Hebrew MJF. So now
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: he's going to do what all the great athletes do.
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: And he tells the cameraman, go ahead, ask your question,
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: and the camera guy asked him, what are you going
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: to do next? And MJF looks into the camera, blood
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: pouring down his face, and he says, I'm going to
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: disney World. And I'm watching this and I'm like, Max,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: it's Disneyland. You're in California. I'm going to Disneyland. He
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: probably just wants to get the fuck out of California.
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: He said, Disney World. This was great. This was great,
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: just a really well delivered promo where he is taking
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: a victory lap because as he should, because he won
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: a Texas Death match against a man who was the
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: king of Texas death matches in this company. I said
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: it the other night. You know, Hangman came in five
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: and one. Not anymore, but he came in five and
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: one in Texas Death Matches. He picked the stipulation. This
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: was his idea. Both stipulations were Hangman's idea, Texas Death.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: If I lose, I can never again challenge for the
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: aw World title. And MJF still went in there and
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: beat him pretty much, fair and square.
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: I would take a victory lap too. Would have been
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: nice to have him on the.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: Show, but given the bloodbath they had on Sunday, I
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: wasn't really expecting him to be on the show. This
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: is not the first time they've done this, by the way,
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: where they have recorded something with him after the pay
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: per view and then they play that on the following
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: week's Dynamite and he's not actually their live Hangman wasn't
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: there because, as I mentioned earlier, Fightful had a report
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: indicating that he's going to be taking time off. We
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: don't know for how long. There was some speculation maybe
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: he would be on the show, cut a promo and
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: then leave, but he was nowhere to be found on
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: the show tonight, and I will I will take a
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: wait and see approach on how they're going to approach
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: the whole stipulation, because I just cannot believe that he
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: will never again challenge for the aw world title, and
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: if in fact they want to honor the stipulation, I
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: think that's incredibly fucking stupid. I just think that's very,
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: very dumb, you know, considering who he is and considering
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: where he is on that roster, if you expect to
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: have him for the long haul. Haven't heard anything recently
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: that would lead me to believe that he's leaving the
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: company anytime soon. I just don't understand why you would
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: want to box yourself in again with one of your
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: top guys like that. I would like to think that
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: they have some sort of idea in mind before they
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: decided to do this, but maybe not, I don't know.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, he definitely has to dip out of the
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: world title scene for a while, but to do so
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: forever again, I think that's pretty stupid. Mina Shirakawa against
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: Marina Shaffir, No holds barred. Mina came out to the
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: ring with a barbed wire baseball bat, no reaction. As
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: somebody in the chat mentioned, apparently they really did not
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: clue people in in the building, which I find hard
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: to believe. Did they not air the footage of the
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: Tony Storm attack from earlier? I mean, I guess they
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: didn't outright tell people in the building that she wouldn't
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: be on the show. So that had a lot to
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: do with why people seemed very confused when Mina came out.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: But she came out with the barbedire baseball bat. The
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: bell sounded, Marina took the bat away from her almost
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: almost instantly. Mina brought out a bucket with bottles of
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: champagne in it. Marina slammed, or rather Marina niceaid Marina,
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: Marina and Mina, I don't want to get them confused.
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: Marina slammed Mina. There we go onto a chair, and
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: then she popped open one of the bottles. She took
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: a swig, she spat it back in Mina's face. Later
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: on in the match, Marina set up a table at
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: ringside and she took Mina to the apron and she
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: hit a back suplex off the apron through the table
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: and Mina took this brutal bump where her head missed
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: the table. Actually, at first it looked like her head
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: may have clipped.
• 43:35
  Speaker 2: The table on the way down.
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: I think she missed the table with her head, but
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: she just bounced hard off the floor. It was just
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: a brutal landing. But I do love how back. This
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: is the funniest part of the match. They go back
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: into the ring and Marina is kicking her ass, you know,
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: in the corner, and the referee backs her out, like
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: backing her away from Mina, and I'm like, it's a
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: no holds barred match. What the fuck are you doing.
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: Your job is to just stand there and do nothing. Okay,
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: when it comes time to count the fall, that's your job. Otherwise,
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: get the fuck out of the way.
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: No holds barred.
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: But it created the separation that Mina needed to grab
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: the champagne bottle smash it over Marina's head. Then she
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: hit a version of Storm zero dedicated to her friend Tony,
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: and she scored the win with it. Very likely the
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: biggest win of Mina Shirikaw.
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: Is AW career.
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: I was racking my brain trying to figure out if
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: in her time at AAW is there a match And
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: there may be and I'm just not thinking of it,
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: but is there a match where she scored a bigger
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: win than tonight? Because Marina Shafear is hardly a you know,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: big big star. But I was trying to think that
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: has she beaten Tony in the past, her in Mariah
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: may Right, they had their little split. I don't believe
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: Mina beat her. Trying to think who would Mina have beaten?
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but it's kind of sad that I'm
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: even sitting here even thinking that this was the biggest
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: win of her run and it was over Marina Shaffir
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: on a random dynamite because Mina never wins like I
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: was fully expecting to watch this match and be like, Okay, Pina, Pina,
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: sheer cow like Penn Valor, no Pina, Tonight, no Pina.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: It was Mina and it was nice to actually see
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: her pick up a win here on this show. Marina,
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: though never took credit for the attack on Tony backstage earlier,
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: she didn't deny that she had something to do with it,
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: but she didn't take credit for it either. And Tony
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: Shavanni on commentary at the end of all this was
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: openly talking about the idea that Marina Shafir was not
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: behind the attack. So I don't know if they're eventually
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: going to reveal that Ronda was behind it. If in fact,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: Ronda is not done and Ronda is going to do
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: more stuff with them, they could come back around to
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: that at some point when she reappears and give her
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: credit for, you know, attacking Tony Storm. Hey, look, they
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: had the face off on Sunday. They established that there
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: was some bad blood there between the two of them.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: No Ronda tonight, no follow up to that angle on
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: Sunday that had everybody talking, unless, of course, she ends
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: up being the one behind this attack. But this felt
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: like their way of writing Tony Storm off television for
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: a while. I don't know that we're going to be
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: seeing her back on TV next week. So anyway, nice
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: for Mina to rack up a win, especially before her
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: big hog debut. You know, we got Mina coming in
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: on Saturday. It's super clash to take on Shatzi, So
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: she's coming in with some momentum. She's coming in with
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: a win. That's good. I wasn't expecting that. I wasn't
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: expecting her to even be on the show.
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: She was a sub. She wasn't even supposed to be wrestling.
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: Tonight, Rene was backstage with androte Alidelo, coming off his
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: big win over Bandido, the Ring of Honor World Champion.
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: This man pinned no real mention or fanfare about that.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: Apparently the Ring of Honor World title is really it's
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: kind of an afterthought. But he did beat the Ring
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: of Honor World Champion on Sunday, so he's in the back.
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: He wants a shot at the aw world title. Yeah, okay,
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: get in the line, buddy. Everybody does.
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: Everybody's throwing their name in the hat.
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: They want the world championship. So John Cruz walks in.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: This is the guy who was portraying mjf's interpreter going
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: into his match with Bendido at the beginning of the year.
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: He shows up.
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: He's got a briefcase and it's from MJF and he
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: wants to present it to Androde but then he pulls
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: out his phone and on his phone is Don Kallis,
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: who is facetiming into the show, and Androte says, wait
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: are we working with MJF and Callus said, Darby Allen
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: has become a pest, so you're my money man, and
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: we're doing a favor for the champ. So he ends
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: up accepting the briefcase reluctantly. Apparently, no, Androti is going
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: to be a hired hitman to take out Darby Allen,
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: which probably means that Darby Allen is going to beat Andrade.
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: And I really don't like that idea. I'm not a
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: fan of that. I want to keep this Andrade momentum going.
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: They closed the show. We're already at the main event.
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: They closed the show with Jack Perry and the Young
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: Bucks big main event here on this post revolution episode
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: of Dynamite. You got Kazuchko Kata on the opposing side
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: along with Trent Barretta and their partner Rocky Romero. This
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: is your main event of Dynamite. Why are they in
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: the main event? Why are these men in the main event?
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: The best that the Don Kallis family has to offer.
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: He has eighteen different family members and this is what
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: we have in the main event here on Dynamite. So
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: the Bucks were looking for the meltzer driver on Rocky
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: Trent interrupted the Heels all mocked the Bucks pose they
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: tried a triple tombstone spot. The Bucks, though, took a
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: page out of Jack Perry's book, and the three babyfaces
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: bit all the heels on the dick.
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: To escape a lot of biting on this show.
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: Triple super kick to Rocky. He eats an EVP trigger
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: and the Bucks launch Perry into the sacrifice knee strike
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: and the National Champion wins it for the baby Face.
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: So Jack Perry leaves after this, and the young Bucks
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: stayed behind. So they take the microphone and they said,
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: at Revolution, we blew it, plain and simple. We were
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: so sure of ourselves, so much that we had our
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: families at ringside just to watch our big night.
• 50:19
  Speaker 2: And they watched us lose.
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: But they're grown men and they could admit that FTR
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: was the better team. On Sunday, Matt said that they
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: went out to celebrate his birthday later that night, unable
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: to look anybody in the eye, and their dad yelled
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: at them. Popa Buck yelled at them and said, keep
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: your heads up. Remember who you are, the best tag
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: team on the planet. Arena is filled with fans who
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: still believe in you and said, sons, I'm proud of you.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: So their dad isn't wrong about this one though. They
• 50:50
  Speaker 1: know who the hell they are and if it means
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: having to claw their way back to the top, they
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: swear there isn't a team in aew that is going
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: to stop them from getting back. They're aw tag team
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: titles for a fourth time. Q Adam Copeland and then
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: Christian Cage. Copeland comes out, no reaction, hardly any reaction.
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: So they get in the ring and Cope said they
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: respect the hell out of them. Don't hang your heads
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: in embarrassment, ever, you guys are too good for that.
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: That being said, I can relate because FTR didn't just
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: attack your family. They attacked his wife. They attacked his
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: family as well. There he goes. Beth Copeland is a badass.
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: They call her the Glamazon for a reason. She doesn't
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: need him to protect her. But over the last six months,
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: as they waited to find out if she would need
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: spinal fusion surgery, man that was a devastating.
• 51:50
  Speaker 2: Spike pile driver.
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: As they were waiting to find out though if she
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: would need the surgery, he couldn't look her in the eye.
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: But now that it looks like they're out of the woods,
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: he's back to get revenge. But that's not about breaking bones,
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: it's not about breaking limbs. The best way to get
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: back at these guys is to take those tag team
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: titles away from them, and so they wanted to come
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: out here personally, face to face and let the Bucks
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: know that at Dynasty next month in Vancouver, it is
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: going to be FTR against Cope and Christian for the
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: aaw tag team titles. Christian said the Bucks need to
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: understand this is personal for him too, because winning those
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: titles means well, I make a ton of extra money.
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: The thing I like, at least about Christian in this
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: promo anyway, I mean, he's only really back for one
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: night basically on the mic. He's not really betraying his character.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: I don't want like baby face Christian cage. He may
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: not make any cracks about people's fathers anymore, but I
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: still want Christian to be Christian. There's a way for
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: Christian to be Christian and still get cheered by the fans.
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: So he's just being honest, and he says, frankly, I
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: get to make a lot more money.
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: If we win those tag team titles.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: But also we get a chance to prove that not
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: only are we the best tag team of our generation,
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: we are the best tag team of your generation. QFTR
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: outcome the Tag Team Champions on stage with Stokely Hathaway.
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: He tried to speak, they all told him to shut up,
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: so he just summoned dax in Cash down to the ring.
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: Go get him, Go get him, he said. So they
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: come down to the ring and the champions got their
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: asses kicked and their titles are laying on the mat.
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: Copeland reaches down to go pick up one of the
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: tag team titles. Matt Jackson does as well. Same thing
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: with the other belt. Nick Jackson and Christian they picked
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: the belt up. One has one side, the other has
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: the other end of it, and the bucks let go.
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: They're gonna let them hold the titles and they're gonna
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: duck it out. And that is how they went off
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: the here with Cope and Christian physically in possession of
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: the tag team titles standing in the ring. Look this, yeah,
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: First of all, Fresno did not seem terribly enthusiastic about
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: any of this. I mean they were cheering the Bucks
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: during their promo, but once Cope and Christian came out,
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: everything that followed not a whole lot of enthusiasm for it.
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: This was always the obvious direction. We knew that when
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: Cope and Christian came back they were going to have
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: to go after FTR because they gave you know, Edge's
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: wife a spike pile driver. Of course they're going to
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: go after FTR. Would FTR still be the champions at
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: that point? The answer is yes, So them doing the
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: Match of Dynasty makes all the sense in the world
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: because it's Canada. You get you know, edging Christian challenging
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: for the tag team titles. I don't even remember the
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: last time these two were tag team champions. How many
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: years ago years has it been since these two held
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: tag team goal together? Right, It's been a long fucking time,
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: and they will go down as one of the all
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: time great teams, especially of their era. And of course
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: they in the hard Ease they innovated the tag team
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: Ladder match and then later on came TLC. They have
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: staked out their claim, their legacy right is firmly entrenched.
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: And then you look at the Young Bucks.
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: Obviously they have their legacy as well, part of which
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: is starting up this company. And then you have FTR,
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: and really their whole gimmick is just, you know, no flips,
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: just fists. They go out there and they have great
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: wrestling matches. They can go out they can go out
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: there and have great wrestling matches with a tag team
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: of broomsticks, right, that's their gimmick.
• 55:42
  Speaker 2: They're just a.
• 55:42
  Speaker 1: Great mechanical wrestling tag team. I can remember when I
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: first started seeing Scott Dawson in WWE developmental and even then,
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: like people are like, you know, mechanically, he's just he's
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: a great wrestler, right, That's what FTR is. And then
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: they would tell you that they're the greatest tag team
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: of this generation, not the Young Bucks. So you have
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: three teams here who are competing really all for the
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: same thing, and obviously they all want to be the champs.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: It's a very easy story to follow. The question is
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: when the Bucks finally do get their shot at those belts,
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: who will the champions be. Are they gonna be wrestling
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: FTR again, or are they gonna be wrestling Cope and
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: Christian or do we just kind of build to a
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: three way match which I have to assume we're gonna get.
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: But are they gonna hold off on that for Wembley
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: Because to me, I feel like, if that's gonna be
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: their big show of the year and they're gonna be
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: saving some stuff for that show, that would be the
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: place to do it. So you're going into Canada, I
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: would think that they would win the titles there. That
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: would mean they go two and oh. By the way,
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: because they already beat FTR once, So if they go
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: in there and beat them again, that's two and o
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: and now they're the tag team champions. You could do
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: Cope and Christian first time ever defending their titles against
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: the Young Bucks in New York City, you know, a
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: double or nothing. That could be the match there, and
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: then eventually you put all three teams in the ring.
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: Don't forget the Hurt Syndicate is going to be back soon. Also,
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: Bobby Lashley is all healed up. You know, are they
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: going to factor immediately back into the tag team title picture?
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: Could be.
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: Things of Things have cooled down a lot recently in
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: terms of the tag team division.
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: It's been a lot.
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: More on the trios end, I feel like, but they
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: also lost some teams, you know, due to injury, Davis
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: and Doyle, Jurassic Express, who else went down. There was
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: another team that went down with an injury. So this will,
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: I guess in their in their eyes, this will help
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: sort of reignite, you know, that that that flame, that
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: fire in the tag team division. I can't say I'm
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: terribly enthusiastic about the idea, you know, Cope and Christian
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: going in there and winning the tag belts, but it
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: just feels inevitable.
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: Point.
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: I'm sure Tony Kahan wants those belts on those guys
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: at least one time, you know, and the Hardys. The
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: Hardys would have won the belts if Jeff didn't have
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: his issues. You know, he has great reverence and great
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: respect for these men and all that they've achieved, and
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: he wants those three letters on their championship resume. He
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: has the chance to do it in Vancouver, right north
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: of the border. Can't find a better place for it
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: unless they were in Toronto. But they're not in Toronto.
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: They're in Vancouver. As far as you know, overall thoughts
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: on the show, it's just when it was over, it
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: was very underwhelming, very underwhelming.
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: You know, we didn't.
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: We didn't even get that one, like real standout wrestling match.
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: There are episodes of Dynamite where there's not a whole
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: lot going on, and I know because I'm sitting here
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: watching the show and then doing the review and the
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: review is over within forty minutes, because there's not a
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: whole lot to really talk about other than Okay, we
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: had a big match here, a big match there, a
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: big match there, a big match there, this move that move,
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: this dive that dive, and very little else to talk about.
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: But we didn't even have any of that on this show. Right,
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: He had some good wrestling, but there was nothing that
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: really stood out. And on top of that, there just
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: wasn't a whole lot that happened, and their biggest names
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: weren't even there. Champion wasn't there, Kenny Omega wasn't there,
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: some people may have been hurt. Hangman wasn't there, He's
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: probably not gonna be here for a while. Androte was there,
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: but he was in the back for a quick segment.
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: So yeah, to cash down, I don't know where he was.
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: Moxley's into tag match teaming with Wheeler Yuda against Ace
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: Austen and Juice Robinson like, okay, not exactly an exciting show.
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: So yeah, whatever Tony Khan was talking about in terms
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: of a crazy night here, it was kind of crazy
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: for him to make that statement unless he had something
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: really blow away, you know, lined up for this show.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 2: He did not. He did not.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: This was quality wise, the worst episode of Dynamite that
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: they have done in quite some time. There have been
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: some good Dynamites recently. There have been a couple of
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: great ones in there. This this was not among them.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: This may have been the weakest one they've done so
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: far this year. And think about that, coming out of
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: a hot pay per view, such a great pay per view,
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: they may have had their worst Dynamite all year. That's
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: saying something. What did you think of Dynamite post Revolution?
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: Thirty six percent thumbs up for tonight's show, sixty four
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: percent thumbs down. Not a lot of fans of Tonight's show.

  Speaker 1: to the super chats. GMB says, how about Gunther and
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: Javan at WrestleMania, Javon can try to avenge his childhood
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: heroes rather than Javon lose to Gunther. Then I would
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: rather he lose to Guntherro than lose in an ic
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: multiman match. Would make sense for both. Yet that's not
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: a WrestleMania match. For Gunther at WrestleMania, that's not a
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: WrestleMania match. I'm sorry. I mean, Javon is cool and all,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: but we got to do better than that. No shame
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: in Javon participating in a multiman title match and having
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: a strong showing. Even if he comes up on the
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: losing end. He's still very are young. We're not vaulting
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: him into top status just yet. He'll be fine him,
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: him and Gunther. I enjoyed that match they had. Was
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: it Madison Square Garden? They had their match? Was it?
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 2: It's in the John Cena Tournament. I believe. I think
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 2: it was actually the opening round.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, not a medium dry chicken, says the biggest question
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: post revolution, who attacked timeless Tony. Here's my suspects, Tecla Rousing, Mercedes.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 2: And Chris Statlander. Statlander.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: I guess Statlander could be an interesting one if they
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: were gonna go, you know, full heel with her.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: I mean, I just figure it's.
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: I if they're gonna get Rousy back in to do
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: something at some point, It's just sort of something they
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: could credit her with down the road. I don't think
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: we need to look too deeply into it, because I
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: don't know if they have could just as easily been
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: a legitimate injury. She's in concussion protocol. They had to
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: come up with a substitute, and they came up with
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: Mina a few hours before the show, in which case
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: there is no plan. Dried chicken. Tony Kahn was cooking tonight.
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: He should invite Gordon Ramsey to He was cooking, all right.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: I had to send the meal back though it was
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: very flat. Bender mc simpson. I missed seeing Christian Cage
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: on my TV. Hey, guys, maven here just got a
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: Sega Saturn old school lo fi goodness, you know, of
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: all of the consoles I owned at one point. Saturn
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: was not one of them, but enjoy that. Elle Massey again,
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: thank you for the forty dollar Sicko drab By Man.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: We have to check that undertone movie out unless people
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: tell me it's not worth it, then I won't. Joey
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: Jojo Junior during the Jurassic Express video. Once they got
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: to the building, I was expecting Jack to say, fuck,
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: we left Anna back at the house.
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know that we're gonna be seeing Ana Jbeck
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: on aw television. I think she may be heading somewhere else.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: The Shoulder Demon with a ten dollars superchair. Revolution had
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: a Texas Death match. It's only fair that the FED
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: had a Texas Death match too. Punk versus Rains Texas Death,
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: Rihea versus Jade Texas Death, Cody versus Orton Texas Death.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: A WrestleMania full of Texas death matches, I'm expecting a
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: bunch of stipulation matches, none of which will.
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: Be Texas death.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: I don't think Drew McIntyre and Jacob Foughtu are having
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: a Texas deathmatch in Las Vegas.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: Doesn't really make sense.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: Retro Koh maybe a hot take Edgen Christian will be
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: better known for their singles runs than their tag team.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: Their last real tag team run was twenty five years ago.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's a hot take at all. I
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: think you're one hundred percent correct. I don't look at
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: that as a hot take whatsoever. Anyway, the goal was
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: seven hundred. It was it was going to be a
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 1: steep climb tonight, but that's what the wheel said, seven hundred.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 2: We're just shy of five hundred. So unfortunately, no be
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 2: the booker Tonight's.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: After that crazy night we had on Monday night, we're
• 1:06:54

  Speaker 1: you have disposed of this one, maybe you can buy

• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: Are they all gone from ww Are you talking about
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 1: the Wrestling Horsewomen or the horsewomen of MMA? The the
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: wrestling horsewomen there are, there's still very much there all
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: but one. As far as the MMA ones, yes, they're
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 1: all gone. They're all gone. Actually, Jessamine Duke is not
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 1: even wrestling her fight. She hasn't wrestled or fought in years.
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: I think she basically she basically streams. She does gaming streams.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: I want to say, with SHANEA Basler and mea yim
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: over on her channel, if you ever want to check

  Speaker 1: you ask him if it's a work, it's not a work.
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: Congrats to him though. He just picked up another world
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: title I think in the ACW promotions, so he's got

• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: he was on the phone with, who he was chatting
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: with on Raw Monday night. A lot of theories about
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: who he was on the phone with. I tend to
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: lean towards Kevin Owens, apparently Bully Ray. I'm busted Open
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 1: Radio for the name Charlotte Flair out there. Thankfully he's
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: not in the writer's room. He won't be getting road
