• 0:12
  Speaker 1: all engine running.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: It's right, What the hell day is it today?
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: Friday? Oh?
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: I got the holidays in the in the aw's schedule
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: had me totally messed up. Well, it's Friday. You know
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: what that means. We're one day away from World's End
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: from Chicago, Illinois. Guys, we're going to do a previewer
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: prediction show. But I gotta ask you right off the bat,
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: what do you think of the card and just overall
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: what do you think of the card? And how do
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: you feel about to build up? Because I have some thoughts,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: but I want to hear you, guys.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Thinks.
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: I think it's been decent build up. I don't think
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: it's been super great.
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: Like they have in the past, but it's been a
• 1:05
  Speaker 5: decent build up.
• 1:08
  Speaker 6: It's too soon, They're not They didn't have hardly any
• 1:10
  Speaker 6: build up to most of this. I mean to me,
• 1:12
  Speaker 6: it's they did this a few pay per views ago.
• 1:15
  Speaker 6: I mean, it would be a good show, but I
• 1:16
  Speaker 6: think they could have been a lot more.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would agree. It's been okay, but not great.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: I mean the focus of I mean pretty much the
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: last month has been the Continental Classic, So Worlds didn't
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: build always kind of suffered just because of that. But
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: it's still it always ends up being a good show.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: So I'm like, you know what, I'm fine with it.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: I know the show is going to be good. At
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: least I can deal with a lackluster build when you
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: have the tournament going on. I understand why it happened.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what my thoughts were was, I don't
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: like that. Look, World's End is built on the Continental Classic,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: that's the theme of the show. You had the participants,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: the semi finalist of the Continental Classic revealed last night
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: on Collision on Christmas Night, so you know, not as
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: many people were likely not watching it, you know what
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I mean. You know what I'm saying, it's I really
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: wish they would have started the Continental Classic maybe a
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: week even two weeks earlier, so that the semi finalist
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: would have been revealed two weeks ago or a week ago,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: and that would give you an opportunity to have promos
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: vignettes about the actual semi final matches.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Does that make sense to.
• 2:49
  Speaker 6: You, guys?
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it makes sense.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just don't think it was smart to have
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: the reveal for the theme the night before, you know,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Thursday night, kay mute. All right, Well, anyway, let's get
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: on with the actual preview prediction show. And since we're
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: talking about the Continental Classic, we might as well, of course,
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: start by talking about the Men's World Championship at lead
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: the Continental Classic for the next We've got Samoa Joe
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: hang Man at him page, We're Strickland and MJF. Who
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: wins this and why? And let me ask you a
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: secondary question, do you see anything extracurricular happening?
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: I think MGF is gonna win it. I think that
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: I don't see him coming back and getting his title
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: shot and wasting it on a loss. And there's there's
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: so many different things that could happen in this match.
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: It's hard. It's hard to specifically say, yeah, I think
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: this is what's gonna happen.
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Anybody else with thoughts on this, come on, guys different.
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: I'm a little different.
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: I really feel like it adds to mjf's character if
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: he loses. So I'm gonna say I really think Samoa
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: Jon needs to find a way to win. I don't
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: want to see him in this quickly and be that
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: much of a trenched this little champion.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Okay, so have memgimojoe Chris, what's up?
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: I agree with you. Don't have him come back, sign
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: the contract, have that you know, promo and then just
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: end up losing like it just makes him look like
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: a complete and total booth Like it would just be
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: it would completely undertuch his character to do that. So yeah,
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: I'm going with him JF. You know, it's one of
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: those I could see him having some people like waiting
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: in the wings to help him. But also, you know,
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: fatal four way, there's no just qualifications of that. How
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: can you qualify one person and you know say, okay,
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: this person wins now because of that. So him to
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: ask to do whatever the hell he wants, that's an
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: important thing to remember about this match. And yeah, I
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: think he definitely uses that to his advantage to win. Yeah.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: You know, the thing with MGF is the promo that
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: he did two weeks ago in the ring. Here's here's
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: my thoughts on this. M Jeff is known for being underhanded.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: He's a scumbag. He's he's almost like an eighties chicken
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: shit heel where he does everything he can to avoid
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: the fight better yet to better than you know, other
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: rather than going in and fighting that he came out
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: with the contract, signed it in a form to make
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: a four way match. Tells me that he's got something
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: up his sleeve. He can't be going into this match
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: with his character. It's a total change of his character.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. It's he's got to have
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: something up to sleep. It doesn't make sense for his
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: character to do this complete flip flop. Well, yeah, what,
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Sorry I hit the.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: Button where I was ready.
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: Oh sorry, I was talking to my cat. Yeah, but
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: of the four guys that are in this, MJF has
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: been preparing for this all year long. He's not just
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: in this for tonight, for tomorrow night. He's been making promos,
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: doing everything he does for the whole year about this match.
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: So yeah, I kind of gotta agree. I'm thinking, who
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: wasn't that mentioned Wardlow? Was it Swerve?
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: I think that I think that we're going to see
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: Wardlow possibly come out and help Benjaya.
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, well, you know, a couple of weeks ago,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: I think it was I mentioned Adam Cole. Adam Cole
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: doesn't have to be you know, while look, while Adam
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Cole has been out. The story could be that MJF
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: set his differences aside and you know, reached out to
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Adam Cole and made amends to say, so to speak.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: And I had mentioned a couple of weeks ago that
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Adam Cole could come out during this match and just
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: use a chair. Where did double mask take off the
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: double mask? It's Adam Cole, Babe better than you, Babey is.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: Back.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Adam Cole isn't really a wrestler anymore. We don't know this,
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: but you know, I think the general consensus is that
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Adam Cole is probably not going to wrestle full time,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: if at all, anymore. But that doesn't mean that he
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: can't get involved. He could be the same kind of
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: character as MVP or Prince Nana, you know what I'm saying.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: So maybe Adam Cole gets involved. Keep in mind, the
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: World's End is one of the of the pay per
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: views that really does have debuts and returns on it
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: generally speaking, Okay, nobody has anything else to say.
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: So wow, yeah, I can see that, I really can.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: I'd rather have have Adam Cole come out in Warlow
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: Warlet's play out to me. I'm sorry, I think his
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: time's kind of passed for me, But that's gonna happen.
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: That'd be a lot better. I think Adam Cole needs
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: to get back in the ring. I think everybody misses
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: him and him turning, he would be just icing on
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: the cake.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Okay, well, let's move on because we've got two Condal
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Classic semi final matches. Of course, the winners of each
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: of these matches will go on later in the show
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: to face each other for the Continental title. I guess
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: this whole thing is just I'm sorry, I am like
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: an idiot because I don't get the unified Continental and
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: International thing at all. What what's the point of you
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: having a unified belt if I just don't. I just
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: don't get it.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: As best I can tell you, if you have both
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: the Continental and the International, you're the unified champion. However,
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: it seems they can be split, and someone could hold
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: the International and someone else holds the Continent, and they
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: can be too different. Well, and then if there comes
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: too much.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're all like, it's not freaking calculus, for god's sake.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: It's that it's not that hard playing it out. I'm
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: not saying I agree with it at all. I think
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: it's a stupid idea. One. You can't have one title
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: three titles or not. They're not, They're not.
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: They're three separate titles. They did exactly the same thing
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: that they did with the six man titles when they
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: combined the the the R O H and the A
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: W six man titles and never separate, and they didn't
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: get rid of one and kept them together and then
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: separated again after tomorrow night. Whoever wins the unified title
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: is the unified champion. That's unified title.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: No.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: No, No, unified title is not even up. Regrets about right.
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: He'll be He'll be the Continental champion. The Continental champion
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: will be who wins the match tomorrow night. Okada is
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: still Occada is still the unified champion and the of
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: the champion.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: But that doesn't make any sense. Let's say let's say TSA.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Let's say Taqushta wins the title tomorrow the continental title
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: tomorrow night, the unified title ceases still exist.
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: All three again.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: No, the international title is not on the line, That's
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: what I'm saying.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: It.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: Unified title is almost like, uh, it only exists when
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: one person wins both the International and Continental.
• 11:44
  Speaker 7: No, when I understand that, but why, but Chris, if
• 11:48
  Speaker 7: you do that, why on the a W roster page
• 11:52
  Speaker 7: doesn't have three separate pictures of the Ocata holding three
• 11:59
  Speaker 7: different belts.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: Because right now, since he won the international title from
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: Kenny Omega and already held the continental title, he is
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: the unified champion. Yeah, he wins the Classic and remains
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: continental champion, he will remain unified champion.
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: That works, That's not it works. He will be He's
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: still going to hold two titles after tomorrow night if
• 12:30
  Speaker 6: he doesn't win. They never separate. They never made them
• 12:34
  Speaker 6: one title. That's why they carry all three builts.
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: Exactly what I'm saying. We're saying the exact same thing.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: You're saying that. But let me, let me, let me,
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: let me just put it onto it right now. I'm
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: gonna compl I'm gonna tell you the solution to this
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: whole thing. The horse's name was Friday. Let's talk about
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: the matches. Kazutsko Kata and Kenoskate Takesha in the semi
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: final match. This is the match that frankly, everybody wanted.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: It's the match that everybody expected. Who wins this match?
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: Kissed Okada Okata and then let's go to We'll get
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: to everybody's opinions. I just want to know who's going
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: to win, So let's move on. Who's going to win
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Fletcher and mox.
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: Moxley.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: Fletcher Moxley, so both of them. This whole thing, we
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: are split right down the line, so we really can't
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: say since we're just gonna go ahead and just go
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: cut right to the chase. Who walks out of World's
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: End as the Continental Champion or whatever the hell championship
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: they're going to call it, I.
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: Think to Kissa wins it and walks away from the
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: don Kellis family.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: Okay, Ceda.
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: Isn't gonna win yet.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: What is I thought you said? I thought I thought
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: you said. I thought you said a Carlsheda.
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: That's what That's the only part we heard was the
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: Cedar part.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: It was like, what the hell are you talking about?
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: So so we've got who did you say?
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: So?
• 14:25
  Speaker 6: And he walks away from the don Kellis family.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Okay, and and Case said Carshida, But he meant to Keshta,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: what about.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: You, Chris?
• 14:34
  Speaker 8: And you will say his whole name. The new champion,
• 14:40
  Speaker 8: the proto Star title, Herbert Ellison Mountain do Camacho Fletcher.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Man that that is I cannot disagree with all three
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: of you more because Golcada is going to retain and
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: it's that's it's it.
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: Why do you feel that way?
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: I just don't think that, you know, it's something that
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: it's like Tony Khan. Every show they said, you know,
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: they say Okada is the greatest tournament wrestler of all time.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: This is a tournament wrestler in Okada, and it's a
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: tournament and Tony Kahan is just I just don't feel
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: like Tony Khan's gonna take the tournament title away from
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: the from the someting. Please mute, I don't think that
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: Tony Khan's going to take the title away from the
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: greatest you know, tournament wrestler of all time.
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: I just definitely, I think you have to pass the
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: tours eventually.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Oh you definitely do I see that happening, you know,
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: when Okada's fifty five years old.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: I just I don't see it. You're setting up for
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: the future. Uh Ashka is the future.
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: I think he beats Okada and then he goes on
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: to beat Moxley, who is a former i g w
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: P champion, So he has, he don't have.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: He's a what.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: He was, he was a.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: Champion.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm sorry.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry because I said the same thing like three
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: weeks ago, and somebody called beyond on.
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: The problem is this again, as I said before, to
• 16:35
  Speaker 6: catch his the iw GP title holder, he wrestles again
• 16:38
  Speaker 6: in two weeks for that title. He's not losing to Okada,
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: and he's not gonna just lose to the other guy.
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: He's not losing a match for that when he has
• 16:46
  Speaker 6: that title.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: If even if he loses to Okada, he's not losing
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: the title. It's as simple as that. I don't believe
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: that Okada in all series is I don't believe Okada
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: is going to lose the Conental Championship because in what
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: ten days or so, Okada's facing Tanahashi and Tanahashi's retiring match.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: He's going into that match as the Continental, Unified International,
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: whatever the hell other belts that you want to call it.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: He's going to have three pictures on the on the
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: roster page, and that's it. That's just the way I
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: feel about it.
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: Just yeah, I think it would be a mistake for
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: Ocada to win again. I really do, because another guy
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: has thirteen points, the most points ever scored. You're setting
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: him up to keep on elevating. I don't see why
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: you crush it with Ocada beating him.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: I could see your point, It's just I don't know.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: It's uh. I kind of like to see Fletcher win it,
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: but I just don't think that it's his time. I
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: definitely don't want Moxy to win it, but I kind
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: of think Moxley is gonna walk away from that other
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: semi final and it's gonna be Moxley versus Okada in
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: the in the finals, where I honestly really want. I
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: think that's who it's gonna be. But I wanted to
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: be Takesha against Fletcher. I think it would be the
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: better match.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: But.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Something tells me I'm not gonna get
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: what I want. Well, let's move on because we've got
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: two women's matches on this main card. We've got the
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: AW Women's World Championship match, Chris Statlander against Jamie Hater
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: and the UH. I believe it was this is the
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: first defense. I don't think the match last night on
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: Collision was a title defense. I think this is actually
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: the first defense the AW Women's Yeah, Women's World Tag
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: Team Championship. We've got Harley Cameron and Willow Nightingale, the
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: Babes of Rath against Mercedes Monet and Athena. Let's start
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: with the a W Women's World Championship match. Who do
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: you guys have Chris Statlander or Jamie Hayter.
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: That Lander?
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I got stat Lander too.
• 19:15
  Speaker 6: I just.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Although, here's what I'm doing. I want this match to
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: be very brutal, and I wanted to not be a
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: one and done kind of thing. I want to have
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: like a holy trinity of matches.
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: Can you see Haylar turning heel?
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: I do?
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: I also see Chris Statlander turning heel. Look, here's the
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: thing I did. This match has a lot to do
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: with several things that I'm gonna with. What I'm gonna
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: point out is that World's End is actually the last
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: a W pay per view until Revolution in March. So
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: there is all of ja January, all of February where
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: let's say Chris Statlander retains, there is nothing going on
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: between now and March except except for Grand Slam Sydney
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: and what is it February?
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: Didn't they didn't they say that you were making a
• 20:22
  Speaker 6: new pay per view in February around Valentine's Day.
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, there's something, isn't there. There's some there's something new
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: Brawl or in February Madness or something.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: No.
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know where you got that, but I actually
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: looked it up. There is nothing saying that there's a
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: new pay per view coming out in February. And I've
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: been watching a lot of videos predictions from people like uh, fightful,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: select what Culture, et cetera, and they all made the point, Hey,
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: guess what, this is the last pay per view before
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: Revolution in March. So but however, they do have Grand Slam,
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: you know, Sydney, which is gonna probably be a big deal.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: So I could kind of see maybe Hater winning this
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: at World's End and then maybe losing it, or probably
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: better as Chris Statlander wins it at world and retains
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: at World's End, Jamie Hayter wins it in the second
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: match with the Holy Trinity of Matches wins it in Sydney,
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: and then a Revolution Chris Statlander gets it back or
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: something to that effect. But I do hope as far
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: as this goes, that it's a Holy Trinity of Matches
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: and it's not just a one and done, because look,
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: when you look at the ae W roster and you
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: look at the women's division, people always say one thing
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: about the women's division is that it's stacked, and yes,
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: it may be act. However, it's also very thin and
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: there's not that many wrestlers active wrestlers. If you look
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: at the roster, go look at the aw roster page,
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: specifically look at the women's division and see how many
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: women that are listed. I think there's something like like
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: thirty five ish women listed, you know, in the women's division,
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: but a lot of those women are inactive, have not
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: wrestled a match in twenty twenty five, we're damn near
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: at the end of twenty twenty five, or they're valets
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: like or just non wrestlers like Mother Wayne that are
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: a sutton please mute. So you know that's the thing.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: Let's move on to the babes of Wrath versus Mercedes,
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: Monet and Athena. But do you guys have winning this one?
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: Babe Breath Babelin, Bret Babelo.
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: Breath, Athena and mer Monee.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: I think that this whole match is going to be
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: set up just to have Mercedes Monet and Athena finally
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: have their big falling out, and it's gonna set up
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: a big program between these two. I don't see the
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: babes of Wrath and Harley, you know. I don't see
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: them losing the belts right now. I will say this,
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: they do need to lose the belts because I don't
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: think they're good champions. I don't think they're they're I
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: don't think they're right. They're pretty initial champions. I really
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: wish it would have been Sisters of Sin or even
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: I really wish it would have been Megan Bain and
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: Penelop before. To be honest with you, I think they
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: needed that type of team to win the championship. I
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: have nothing against Harley Cameron, I have nothing against Willow Knightingale.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: I just don't think they're I just don't think they're
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: it for this championship. I really do want to see
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: them lose it fairly soon.
• 23:56
  Speaker 6: I kind of agree with you. They don't look smooth
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: when they wrestling together. They they it doesn't look like
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: when you watch everybody else that's a tag team that's
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: been a tag team for a while, it just moves,
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: and with them, there's just way too much certain stuff.
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: They don't go very well.
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and I love them as a team. They just
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: need more time.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: Well, Harley Cameron, I don't know how you feel about it,
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: but like Harley Cameron, to me, had much more of
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: a symmetry. She was more in sync with christ Atlander
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: and Mercedes Bone than she is with with will O Nightingale.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: With will O Nightingale, everything they do just seems like
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: their promos they seem really forced. I don't know, it
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: just seems faint to me. It's you know, it just
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: doesn't matter. They're they just don't mesh. They're they're not
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: good together. I don't like them together. I really don't.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: I agree.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: Okay, you're gonna say anything about why, or he's just
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: gonna say I disagree, No, just I disagree.
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: Okay, Okay, Well then uh.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: Let's let's move on. Uh We've also got two multi
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: man mixed nuts mayhem things going on. We got a
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: Chicago street fight for the aa W World Tag Team
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: Championship with f TR facing the I'm just gonna say
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: the gang Bang Gang because I'm gonna say it anyway.
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: Uh So, yeah, we're gonna these two and then we
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: have this mixed nuts mayhem match. Let's start with the
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Chicago Street Fight for the a W World Tag Team Championship.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: Who do you have winning f TR TR f TR
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: I honestly, I don't even understand why this match is
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: even on this card.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, Animal is my favorite, nothing, but there's
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: no way him in tournament or beating FTR in this.
• 26:06
  Speaker 6: The only thing that I could see that they could
• 26:08
  Speaker 6: the way that they would win is if j White
• 26:10
  Speaker 6: came back or the Missing Brother came back. That would
• 26:15
  Speaker 6: be the only way that they could win. To get
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: involved in the street fight, Yeah, yeah, what about you,
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: I'm getting.
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: No, I see it just playing.
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: I see why they do it because they need a match,
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: but I don't see them winning. FTR is gonna stay
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: champions for a while.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just don't understand the build of this because
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: didn't FTR just beat these two?
• 26:34
  Speaker 6: Well, yeah, it's the rubber match.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: Well and during the match, Austin had das pinned and
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: Cask grabbed his foot and put it on the rope,
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: So it was one of those they really did ten them,
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: but it got nullified because the ref saw the foot
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: on the rope even though he counted. Sorry, So that's
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: the kind of excuse to let it be, to let
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: him have a rubber match, and to add the stipulation to.
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: It, right right, Well, look at let's look at the
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: the mixed nuts Mayhem match. This match is just wrong.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: Who do you have winning this?
• 27:20
  Speaker 6: I don't care, honestly, Yeah, there you go, timeless conglomeration.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: I like you.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: I don't want to look. I don't want it to
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: come off like what I say. I don't care. I don't.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: It's not that there's nothing at stake in this match,
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: so it doesn't make me care about who wins or
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: loses the match. I care about the match because it
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: looks like it's going to be fun. I expect to
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: see mayhem, and I really expect to see some nuts.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Wait that didn't come out.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: Right now, it came out exactly right.
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: Shame So.
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. I look the match, the winner
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: of this match. Honestly, it doesn't matter who wins this
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: match unless they had some other kind of stipulation that's
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: something to the effect of, I don't know whatever, but.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: I just.
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was kind of surprised, to be honest with you,
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: because I before they had mentioned where before they made
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: this match, I had mentioned in the live chat, I
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: wonder if they're going to do a match, a multi
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: man match with all the people from the Continental Classic
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: that did not make the semi finals. But uh, you know,
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: have like a Group A against Group B match or
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: something to that effect.
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, which they can, they would, But then I realized,
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: of the eight people left, you have six faces and
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: two heels.
• 28:54
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but that really doesn't make any difference because it
• 28:57
  Speaker 6: would have just been either all of the guys that
• 29:00
  Speaker 6: didn't make it versus the B guys or just throw
• 29:03
  Speaker 6: them in a hat, pick out four guys and go.
• 29:06
  Speaker 6: So that really didn't have it they, like Keilsen said earlier,
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: there's no meaning to this match. It could have been
• 29:12
  Speaker 6: anybody against anybody. It's just a match to phill Card's base.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just a way to get something Marina Shafir
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: and Claudio and Judah and I guess Daniel Garcia into
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: the pay per view, as well as getting Orange Cassadine
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: and uh, Mark Brisco and Tony Storm into the pay
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: per view. That's the only reason it's here. It's a
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: definite it is a definite filler match and that's unfortunate
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: because Tony Storm should not be in a piller match
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: under any circumstances. But that's what it is.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: You know, sometimes those piller matches end up being a
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: lot of fun because it's like, Okay, we have nothing
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: to prove, let's just go out there and have a
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: kick ass Matt.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I agree with you. It's just I'm just saying,
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: is that it's it's just odd especially since look, I'm
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: just gonna say it, when you're looking at the nine
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: matches that are on the main card, five of them
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: were made final last night. Well technically four because one
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: of them is also the finals of the Continental Classic,
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: which we won't know until tomorrow night. But you understand,
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: I'm saying, it's just like, it's just a weird match
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: to have this mixed nuts mayhem match. Because five of
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: the matches of the nine were made last night, on
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: the Thursday, two days less than two days before the
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: actual pay per view starts. We had literally we didn't
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: we didn't have but four the matches already decided.
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I mean, you know, sometimes that's okay. Like
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna say, look, I watched people who knows Mystery
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: wrestling every month, and you know what, most of the time,
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: pretty much every show, maybe one match will be known,
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: maybe one performer will be known, but everything else is
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: just it happens as happens. Sometimes that's okay. Sometimes it
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: makes things fun just being like, Okay, we're gonna have
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: this wrestling match just because it's going to be an
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: awesome wrestling match.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Now, I understand what you're saying. Well, I don't understand
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: what you're saying about Ebauo's Mister Wrestling Mystery Wrestling, because
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: putting Ebluno's Mystery Wrestling and on the same scale as
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: AW is mind boggling to me. But uh, but I
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: get what you're saying.
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: Making that Timparrison that you know, you know I need
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: to know everything.
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: But when you're spending forty dollars or four fifty dollars
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: as the case maybe on something, you kind of want
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: to know what you're buying.
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: I know I'm buying wrestling because that's what AW has
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: given me every single paper.
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: No, I no, I agree with you, but again, you're
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: buying it. I'm buying it. Not everybody's you and me
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: or you and I. You know what I'm saying, You
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: have to give people the reason to buy it. I'm
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: afraid that they didn't, meaning a W. I'm afraid a
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: W dropped the ball big time with this, I really do.
• 32:35
  Speaker 5: To me, there's just two matches, you're really buying the
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: paper before? Well three? But yeah, it's it's a classic
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: ending and it's for the main event. The rest of them.
• 32:45
  Speaker 5: Don't think anybody really cares about.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm that's the focus of the pay per view,
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: and I know the rest of the card will be
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: filled with good wrestling because I know that's what A provides.
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: And I think most people who are going to be
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: buying in aw pay per view probably have a similar mindset, like, Okay,
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: I know the Continental Plastic Finals are happening. That's the
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: selling point of this pay per view. I'm gonna trust
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: that the rest is going to be cool.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: Now, I get what you're saying. I just hope that
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: you guys understand what I'm saying. You know is that
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: they literally did not have you know, the matches set
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: last night. At this time, we still didn't know who
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: was in a lot of these matches at World's End
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: two days before the pay per view. But anyway, let's
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: move on because we do have a couple more matches,
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: and I included the Zero Hour match. We have Gabe
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: Kid versus Darby Allen, and as far as I know
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: as of right now, it's a straight up match. I
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: don't see I don't know if they've put a stipulation
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: on it. And then of course in the Zero Hour
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: we've got Sisters Sins against High End and Maya World,
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: which is kind of interesting to me, you know, because
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: of well things that's happened over the last several weeks.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: But anyway, well let's talk about Gabe Kid and Darby Allen.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: Who do you guys have winning this Onebie?
• 34:21
  Speaker 5: I want to see Gabe win this.
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: He needs a big win to stand out and kind
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: of get away from the death Writer's grip and be
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: his own person because to me, the Death Writers kind
• 34:30
  Speaker 4: of ruined him. I know he's he's able to have
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: good matches because he's a great one with Kenny Omega.
• 34:36
  Speaker 5: So I want to see him shine.
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but he's not an official aw members, so I
• 34:42
  Speaker 6: don't think he's beaten Derby.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: That's a pretty good point.
• 34:45
  Speaker 6: I mean, he's he basically came in. You might think
• 34:47
  Speaker 6: that that the Death writers ruined him. But the only
• 34:51
  Speaker 6: storyline reason he's in a W was a hired hayend
• 34:58
  Speaker 6: for them to help beat keep up. So if he was,
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: if he was a on AW roster, I'd say gave Kid.
• 35:07
  Speaker 6: But you can't have Darby losing him. I just don't
• 35:10
  Speaker 6: see it happening.
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: I disagree Darby can lose to anybody.
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: He's he's I don't know, he's just that guy's let's not.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: Actually gave Kid is just freaking bumb I mean, he
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: is a former i w t P Global champion. You
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: know he's had Grade two ones. Great like Darby could
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: lose this match to gay Kid and not lose anything.
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: But I think gave Kidd losing He hasn't had enough
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: success in a W where if he loses this one,
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: he'll be okay, Like Game Kidd needs to win this
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: match if unless he's not coming to ay, you know
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: with uh.
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: I believe it was what culture that did a list
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: of the top matches is of twenty twenty five, and
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: you know what their number one match was, eight Kid
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: versus Kenny omeg It Russell Russell Dynasty on January fifth,
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: So I believe it was what culture could have been
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: what culture, Yeah, I thought it was, but anyway, I
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: mean kid kid literally has I'm not saying what culture
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: is the end all to be all, but you can't
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: deny that having gay kid at the top of a
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: gay kid match at the top of a list isn't
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: doesn't mean anything, you know what I mean? So so
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: that's that. Okay, then we have I think this is
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: an interesting match Sisters of sand versus High End and
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: Maya World. Why is this interesting because High End and
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Maya World stepped in when Nixon Nowell and Miranda Alazay
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: kind of walked out or not kind of they walked
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: out saying that a three minute match wasn't doing anybody
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: and he favors high End in Maya World stepped in,
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: did the three minute match. They've been booked continuously on
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: They've been on ro oh, they've been on AW. Now
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: they're in the zero hour of a pay per view.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: What do you guys think about this? And obviously it
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: probably doesn't matter who wins this match, but uh, this
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: could be interesting.
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: So you're saying they're being rewarded for sticking around and
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: doing the right thing.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: Well, look, here's the thing, Like fightful select. Sean Rasapp
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: did his thing earlier today and he actually brought up
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: this match, and he said that he fully expects for
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: Hin and Maya World to be all leaked by tomorrow afternoon,
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: if they already, if they if they're not already. H
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: And I apologize if I misquoted him or something like,
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: you know, I'm paraphrasing, but I kind of agree. And
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: and it's interesting also is that you know a W
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: is signed, Uh Lena Cross, Uh, she's not been used.
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: You know, Lanta Cross team with Hyghen in October. Uh,
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: we've got the Sisters of Sin. You know, Tekla's gonna
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: Techla is going to be around. This could be one
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: of those things where on zero Hour where we have
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: a feel good thing where we have hide to Maya
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: World made All Elite, Lanta Cross comes out. Because Fitful
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: reported what about a month or two ago, that Lanta
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: Cross is signed by All Elite Wrestling. She had to
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: relocate to Orlando. She has done that according to Fightful.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: Oh look, I mean you've got Sisters of Sin.
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: Who are.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: You know they're there? They're workers, That's this is what
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: they do. This is the kind of match that they're
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: built for you know, Sky Blue and Julia hard Or
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: are the two of the hardest workers in the women's division.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: So you know, this is I don't expect High in
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: my world, maybe not win this match, but I do
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: think that they would be legitimized in this match, I
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: guess is the best way to put it.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, let's paper is absolutely a bit of
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: a reward for stepping up and sticking around. Like you
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: had two who you know, I'm not going to say, oh,
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: they thought they were better than or whatever, but for
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: whatever reason, they just decided that wasn't for them. So
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: you had High our world. They stepped up. They that
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: was the second work for the second match they worked
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: that night, you know, like and hey that you want
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: someone to be like, we want to work, Like we'll
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: go out there. We don't mind because we recognize three
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: minutes can become five, can become a TV spot, can
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: become a pay per view spot.
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: It could become a job as well.
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: Look, I mean, if you know anything about High End
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: and Maya World, they are if well, if you look
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: at Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Top Women's two fifty, they're up there.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: They're even though they're not signed to any company right now.
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: They are up there. They they are recognized as good wrestlers,
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: very capable wrestlers. Uh, but uh, the fact of the
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: matter is is that they're traveling all over the United
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: States and probably all over the world, wrestling on these
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: indy shows. It's got to be a goal. It's got
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: to be the Nixon Nowell stated that her goal was
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: to be signed by a company. You know, they don't
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: want to be on the road driving going or driving
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: or flying from town to town, you know, making far
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: less money than you're probably ever going to make in
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: a company like AW, Rig of Honor, WWE, NXTAM and TNA.
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: You know, I mean, you want to have a permanent place.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: And by doing what they did, stepping up and doing
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: the three minute match, that as you said, Chris, turns
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: into a five minute match, it turns into a ten
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: minute match, it turns into a you know, a zero
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: hour on a pay per view match could turn into
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: a job. And that's you know, that's a that's a
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: winning story right there. Even if they lose this match tomorrow,
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: even if they don't get signed, aw They've won because
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: they've done something to make them cells see. You know,
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: it's good advertisement for them.
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: They raised their profile for sure, no matter what. Exactly like,
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: they got themselves more recognized, more noticed, more people saying like, Okay,
• 42:17
  Speaker 3: I've seen them before, you know, I saw them on
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: a W you know, so the next time there's an
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: indie show there on, it's like, yeah, I saw them
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: in a w's They're cool. Let's go see them.

• 46:23
  Speaker 2: tell if you listen to this podcast. We have our
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: dissenting opinions. We do have some discourse, but it's constructive,
• 46:32
  Speaker 2: it's all in. It's all coming from a good place
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: when we criticize, because we want AW to be better
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: on this on this channel, and I do believe that
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: even on the Discord, we don't have any there's no
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: tribalism there. It's we're wrestling fans and w W e
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: T and a luc Lebray, Joshi aw you rig of honor.
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: It's all wrestling, so we're fans talk about No, I
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: doubt that's a blatant lie.
• 47:10
  Speaker 3: Come on, more people will come and cookies.
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: Now I have been I have been known to post
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: late night stripping video, uh, but I delete them before
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: anybody wakes up.
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: So.
• 47:24
  Speaker 6: Away it's the Eddie Kingston worship videos you have to
• 47:27
  Speaker 6: watch out for.
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, well that's one thing that I can definitely
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: say about our discord is that we argue a lot
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: about Eddie Kingston because some people really like Eddie Kingston
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: and some people just don't, you know. In other words,
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: some people have really bad taste and some people have
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: really good taste in professional wrestling.
• 47:50
  Speaker 9: But anyway, I digress, I digress, I digress. Anybody else
• 47:56
  Speaker 9: have a pot poiri now that I don't, You do
• 47:59
  Speaker 9: not and anybody else?
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: When I get this through the usual kind of quick
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: New Japan wrap up, Okay had his last match in
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: Cork and Hall. Ever, I almost cried. His last match
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: ever ever is coming up January fourth against Kisukada. I
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: will cry again.
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: That is all I do want to say that. You know,
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: I mentioned earlier about the polls and the live chats
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: and whatnot. On our discord. We do have a poll
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: for every match at Russell Kingdom twenty. We have a
• 48:39
  Speaker 2: poll for every match at Stardom's Dream Queendom which is
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: coming up on the twenty ninth of this month. So
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: again joined the Discord participate in the polls. It's really big.
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: I gotta say this because it was so funny because
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: the last pay per view that AW had was Full
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: Gear and we had the polls and where everybody voted
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: on the winners of the matches. We did horrible. It
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: was awful. I think there was nine matches on that
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: pay per view. I think we got three right and
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: six wrong. It was pathetic, But you think about it,
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: there was a lot of title changes at Full Gear,
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: which is something that AW normally doesn't do. Although they
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: did rebound. The community did rebound because if you remember,
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: after that, we had what was at the RH Final Battle.
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: That was the RH pay per view that was the
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: most recent one right Final Battle. Yes, and at the
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: community got every single matchup Final Battle right, every single one,
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: which I was very happy to see because we got
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: decimated at Full Gear. So we did not do the
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: polls for World End, however, because because there was not
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: enough time to do them. You know, we didn't know
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: the matches until ten and eleven, Well ten, what wasn't No.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: Eleven thirty last night? We didn't know that. We didn't
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: know the final match, you know, the final matches for
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: World's End. By the way, did we miss any matches
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: for World's End? I mean as far as I did
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: they add any more matches the Zero Hour other than
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: the Sisters' sin.
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: One with them? Oh crap? Really yeah boy?
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: Oh hey if it's a nice bathroom break before the
• 50:34
  Speaker 3: main card for me?
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't get it. I really don't. But anyway,
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: I digress. We will be back on Tuesday night at
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: eight forty five Eastern time for our regular ignition to
