1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
You on your five star matches.

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,000
You on your 30 minute classics.

3
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Big meaty man slapping me.

4
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:51,000
What is good ladies and gentlemen, this is the slapping me wrestling podcast.

5
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,000
I'm your host, Randall Beatley.

6
00:00:53,000 --> 00:01:06,000
You can find me on TikTok as well as Twitter at We Too Deep 413.

7
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:13,000
Today's episode we're going to break down what looks to be the potential WrestleMania card.

8
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,000
My opinions on it, my opinions going into WrestleMania.

9
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,000
And then we're going to end the show.

10
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:28,000
I did everyone a favor and I went ahead and watched Revolution.

11
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:36,000
I was invited by a couple of my friends, my brother, my best friend, to watch Revolution with them.

12
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:45,000
I was hesitant because everything I've seen on TikTok, everything I've seen on Twitter has been a little bit down on AEW.

13
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,000
So I was like, eh, I already don't like it.

14
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:55,000
Why would I waste my time watching something that AEW fans don't seem to even like at the moment?

15
00:01:55,000 --> 00:02:03,000
But I went ahead and just for the sake of hanging out with friends, I went in and watched.

16
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:13,000
And we're going to break down my reaction to what happened at Revolution.

17
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:21,000
And I think some of you may be surprised by some of it and others maybe not so much.

18
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:26,000
We'll see. But with that being said, I do want to do some some housekeeping a little bit.

19
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,000
Like I said, this will be a once a week show.

20
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Now, I like this a little better when I was going, you know, four episodes a week.

21
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:40,000
I was just burnt out. It quickly burnt me out on the industry.

22
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,000
Right. Because I was I was forced to watch Raw.

23
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,000
And I'm sorry. That's what it was. It was like it was within.

24
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,000
It's not even good television. I'm just going to be completely honest with you.

25
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Like it's three hours of torture at times.

26
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,000
And and so it just got tiring.

27
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,000
And then, you know, that ends at eleven and often I would go.

28
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:06,000
Raw would end. I would jump on the computer, record the episode, release it.

29
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,000
It's midnight, almost one o'clock at this point.

30
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:16,000
And I just it.

31
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:21,000
Then I had to do the same thing Tuesday where I'm watching NXT and I like NXT.

32
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,000
And again, NXT ends at 10.

33
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,000
So by the time that's posted, it's, you know, eleven thirty midnight.

34
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:34,000
And and so I'm just. You know, it was it was a lot of work.

35
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:39,000
And I'm not afraid of work. It was just a lot of grinding

36
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:43,000
that I don't think really needs to happen for the show to be good.

37
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,000
So what we're going to do with with the show is basically

38
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:53,000
it's going to be things that I enjoy in wrestling, different topics, different news things,

39
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:58,000
all within like a week thing.

40
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:05,000
Like I'll break down the shows, what I liked, what I dislike in wrestling over over a week.

41
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:09,000
Maybe we'll do like a breakdown of what I like in wrestling things.

42
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,000
You know, there's a lot of things that we could sit down.

43
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:18,000
I'm probably going to sit down at some point in the next couple of weeks

44
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:23,000
and write down things that I want to want to discuss on this episode

45
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:28,000
or on an episode on this podcast and break down and schedule it.

46
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,000
That way, I'm not coming up with ideas, you know, ahead of time,

47
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:40,000
like two hours before I record like I did for this this podcast.

48
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:48,000
Last thing in the housekeeping bit, I'm a part of a really awesome Discord server,

49
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:54,000
and I've gotten permission to to to promote this.

50
00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:03,000
The casual wrestling community Discord server.

51
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,000
Well, it's it's the casual community.

52
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:10,000
So it started by someone that I've mentioned before on here, notorious nerdy D.

53
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,000
He runs the nerdy D show, which is more of a pop culture, you know,

54
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:20,000
show the him and his his wife does level up Lauren.

55
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,000
Big shout outs to both of them.

56
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:29,000
And then they do a wrestling show.

57
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,000
He does a wrestling show as well.

58
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:39,000
And so he put together a discord and it's in the starting phases.

59
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,000
There's not a lot of people in there,

60
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,000
but I've had a lot of fun and a lot of good discussion.

61
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:53,000
And so what I want to present to you guys is the opportunity to join the casual community

62
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,000
where we just come in, we have fun.

63
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:03,000
We there's there's a lot of trash talk and, you know, he offers.

64
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:08,000
So what he ends up doing is he's he he posts the new episode, the fish show.

65
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,000
It gives you guys something else to listen to as well.

66
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,000
And he has the same mindset that I have.

67
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,000
Let's make this a community thing.

68
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,000
Right. Who like I don't care if you listen or not.

69
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:26,000
Like if you join this and you find his podcast more appealing, go listen to it.

70
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,000
That's fine. Right.

71
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,000
I'm not in this for the viewership.

72
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,000
I'm not in this to make money.

73
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:38,000
I'm not in this to, you know, start a business.

74
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,000
I'm in this just to have fun.

75
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:44,000
This is fun to me to sit and talk about wrestling and share my opinions.

76
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,000
That's all I'm in this for is to have fun.

77
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:53,000
And Nerdy D has the same outlook on it.

78
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:59,000
He kind of actually has somewhat of the same like story, too, with his podcast.

79
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:03,000
He was doing this like four days a week.

80
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:12,000
And I mean, it's a lot of work to put in the type of production that he put in where I mean, it's researching and finding new stories.

81
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:18,000
If you've ever tried to find wrestling news stories, you'll understand it's difficult as hell.

82
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:26,000
Because when you go to these dirt sheets, like big news stories to them is like Vince McMahon backstage with a mustache.

83
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:31,000
Like who cares? Like I'm literally not even kidding.

84
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:37,000
That was a report that Vince McMahon was backstage and he had a mustache.

85
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,000
That's a big news report in the wrestling world. Right.

86
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:52,000
That's a whole other episode on why I think wrestling journalism can't even be called journalism because it's so bad at times.

87
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,000
It's a lot of research into doing these things, making sure you're telling accurate information.

88
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Then for him, like he records and he he makes like shorts and tick tock length videos that I don't even do.

89
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:11,000
I can't even imagine the amount of time that Nerdy D put into to his podcast. Right.

90
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,000
So he sort of has the same sort of story as me.

91
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:19,000
He got burnt out with it. And so I think he actually releases on Wednesdays as well.

92
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,000
The more the merrier on Wednesday. That's wonderful.

93
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,000
It's wrestling Wednesday. Right.

94
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:29,000
I'm not the type of person that's like, oh, Wednesday's my day. Why are you infringing?

95
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,000
I want this to be fun for everyone involved.

96
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:42,000
Me and him have actually talked potentially trying to navigate a schedule to where we can do like a crossover show.

97
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:48,000
We've mentioned that idea. So that might be in the future.

98
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:55,000
I'm going to continue to follow up with him, see if we could plan something out.

99
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,000
But yeah, the opportunity to join his discord.

100
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:06,000
I'm going to leave the link in the bio of of this episode.

101
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:14,000
If you guys are like in the description for you to join for this episode, it's going to be in the description.

102
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:27,000
You can join the discord, the casual community, have a lot of a lot of the conversation threads are about stuff that's been talked about in his in his episodes.

103
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000
And so you would write you can't just jump in and write.

104
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,000
But there is a lot of wrestling discussion involved in it.

105
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:41,000
So go check that out. I I first off he has if you have your own podcast, promote your show.

106
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,000
He wants us to be a community, just the same that I do.

107
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:51,000
Everyone have fun. Everyone promote their shit. Have some fun trash talk and go about it.

108
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:56,000
With that being said, it's a long introduction, a lot of housekeeping.

109
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,000
Let's get into today's show. Right.

110
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:07,000
And so I mentioned that had a time we're talking potential WrestleMania card and it's becoming less potential and more of what it's actually becoming and what it is.

111
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:12,000
We're less than 30 days away from WrestleMania.

112
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:23,000
Let's let's count the days down seven twenty twenty one two three four like twenty five days from night one of WrestleMania.

113
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,000
At the time I'm recording this, which is on a Tuesday.

114
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,000
What I do if you guys don't know, I record on Tuesday nights.

115
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:37,000
I set to to release Wednesday morning, so I am recording this on a Tuesday.

116
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:43,000
Right. So we're 20 something days from WrestleMania.

117
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,000
I'm be honest with you. I'm not excited for this.

118
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:52,000
When they announced WrestleMania Hollywood, there was big potential for the rock.

119
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,000
Then they were talking Sina. Then they were talking Austin.

120
00:10:55,000 --> 00:11:02,000
Like there was a potential for the three of the three of my top five wrestlers being on this card.

121
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:07,000
Then you add in Roman Reigns. So that's four of my top five wrestlers of all time.

122
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:12,000
Right. The only one that missing is Hulk Hogan.

123
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,000
And please don't bring it. Please.

124
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:20,000
We don't need Hulk Hogan, but Austin Sina Rock Roman.

125
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:25,000
Then you add in guys like Seth Rollins, who are like top 10 all time for me.

126
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:31,000
Right. You had a potential for a star studded WrestleMania.

127
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:37,000
You had the potential. You know, this time last year.

128
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:42,000
Right. And when they were announcing, hey, this is going to L.A.

129
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:49,000
Right. Like last year at WrestleMania time, like there was a lot of potential for what this

130
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:56,000
WrestleMania could be. And now we're 30 less than 30 days away from it.

131
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:00,000
And it just doesn't feel like it's going to live up to much.

132
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:09,000
It just seems like another premiere live event card and not even a good one at that.

133
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,000
So we are going to go through the card. The first report that I want to talk about is that Triple H

134
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:20,000
is trying to make the card smaller, that he wants a smaller WrestleMania card, which I'm fine with.

135
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:27,000
And I actually promote. But with that being said.

136
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:32,000
If you're going to use a smaller card, please bring it back to one night.

137
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,000
We don't need two night WrestleMania's.

138
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,000
And you're going to have to trim some of the fat in your roster.

139
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:46,000
Right. You can't have 200 300 superstars in the company and only display, you know, eight matches.

140
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:53,000
Right. So if you're going to shrink the card and I think you should.

141
00:12:53,000 --> 00:13:00,000
But I think there's also a lot of fat in the company that if you just cut the fat and release, you know,

142
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:06,000
go back to February 8th, I think it was when I did the roster revamp and I ended up cutting like 25,

143
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:12,000
30 percent of the roster. That's something that needs to be done.

144
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:24,000
And to to create, I think, better enticing program because when you have so many people at your dispensary

145
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,000
at your dispense, excuse me, I can't talk.

146
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:34,000
When you have so many people at your at your exposure, at your expense to put on the TV.

147
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,000
Right. A lot of times you just don't.

148
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,000
Especially if you're going to use the same 10, 15 people.

149
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:45,000
Right. So I think you got to cut some of the fat shrink the card.

150
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:49,000
I think eight matches is the most you should have on a WrestleMania.

151
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Not everyone deserves to have a WrestleMania moment every year.

152
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,000
The best of the best deserve to have their WrestleMania moment.

153
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:03,000
With that being said, I am going to go through some of the matches that appear to be what's going on.

154
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,000
We'll break down the women's side of the card first.

155
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:11,000
We'll start with the match that got announced yesterday on Monday Night Raw.

156
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,000
Yesterday or Monday on Monday Night Raw.

157
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,000
Remember that I am recording on Tuesday. Sorry about that.

158
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:24,000
Becky Lynch versus Enlita and Trish Stratus versus Damage Control.

159
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:30,000
I don't hate this match.

160
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:41,000
However, I don't understand why you would give Lita and Becky the championship

161
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:46,000
and then not have that title defended at WrestleMania.

162
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,000
I just don't understand it.

163
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,000
I like this match better.

164
00:14:50,000 --> 00:15:03,000
My problem is these women's tag team championships just are completely useless at this point.

165
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:10,000
I think I would rather get rid of them and put on a mid-card title for the women's division

166
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:14,000
that I think would be a lot more useful.

167
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,000
There's obviously no plan for these.

168
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:28,000
You would think that Ronda and Shayna would be the next competitors in line to fight for them.

169
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:35,000
I just don't know if I really want to see Lita and Trish Stratus in a WrestleMania caliber match.

170
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:43,000
I don't know what the benefit is for this or who really wants to see this.

171
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:48,000
I would love to see Ronda and Shayna win these tag titles at WrestleMania.

172
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,000
That would be my preferred match.

173
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,000
But this match is what we're getting.

174
00:15:52,000 --> 00:16:00,000
I would assume this leads to Ronda and Shayna maybe at Backlash, maybe at Money in the Bank,

175
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,000
maybe a bigger event like Summerslam.

176
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,000
I just can't see Lita wrestling week to week.

177
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:14,000
And so you're telling me...

178
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:21,000
The only thing I could think of is potentially Ronda and Shayna winning it on the road to WrestleMania

179
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,000
maybe by a damage control distraction or something.

180
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,000
I just don't understand.

181
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:33,000
I don't see Lita wrestling week to week, showing up week to week to promote this,

182
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:39,000
but also to continue to carry the championship past WrestleMania.

183
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:46,000
What's going to happen past WrestleMania that benefits the championship here?

184
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:51,000
So we'll move forward with the women's division.

185
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,000
We got Bianca and Asuka, and we got Charlotte versus Rhea.

186
00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:00,000
Now the reason I'm going to talk about these the same is three of the four competitors I'm fine with.

187
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:10,000
I would have preferred Bianca versus Rhea, and I would have preferred Charlotte versus Raquel Rodriguez.

188
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:15,000
I think those would have been the better matches that promoted younger and better stars.

189
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:19,000
Raquel should be booked a hell of a lot better,

190
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:27,000
and Rhea I think would have made a better opponent against Bianca.

191
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,000
That's just my opinion.

192
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,000
I think those would have been the better matches.

193
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,000
Nothing against Asuka. I think she's a fine wrestler.

194
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:43,000
I just don't think that the modern channel flippers, the casual fans,

195
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,000
this gimmick, which is her indie gimmick basically,

196
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:53,000
I don't think a lot of people care about it, just to be completely honest.

197
00:17:53,000 --> 00:18:07,000
And so I would have rather seen Rhea face Bianca and then Raquel face Charlotte with two new champions.

198
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,000
I think Raquel is a star in the making if booked correctly,

199
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:14,000
and Rhea is the best thing in the industry of all companies.

200
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,000
I think Rhea is the best thing in the women's division today.

201
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:26,000
But yeah, it looks like we're going to get Bianca versus Asuka, Charlotte versus Rhea.

202
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,000
They're not going to be bad matches.

203
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,000
Rhea and Charlotte will probably main event night one,

204
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:36,000
and more than likely I'm seeing Rhea winning that match.

205
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:41,000
I think then we'll get the Andre of the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.

206
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:45,000
It's rumored to not happen, but I think it will happen.

207
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:56,000
And I think that could potentially be a spot where you maybe put over someone like Montez Ford, LA Knight.

208
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:03,000
I'm trying to think of someone else on the main roster that deserves a good push,

209
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,000
but winning this doesn't really do much for your career.

210
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,000
I'm going to be completely honest with you.

211
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:14,000
So I want to see it, but at the same time I really don't want to see it.

212
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,000
It's just a projection.

213
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:22,000
I think we're probably going to get a match like that.

214
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:29,000
I think Cena versus Theory was confirmed as happening last night on Monday Night Raw.

215
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:33,000
I kind of figured this was going to be the match.

216
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,000
I'm not upset with it.

217
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,000
It's predictable that Theory is going to win,

218
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:46,000
but I think it's going to be a little put, the Cena sort of, the Cena rub where Cena's going to pass the torch over to him.

219
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,000
And it should be a fun match.

220
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,000
It's going to be a really, and it probably, it won't be like super, super high-pitched,

221
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,000
but I think it's going to be a good match.

222
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,000
I really do. I really do.

223
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,000
Cena doesn't ever disappoint.

224
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,000
Theory doesn't ever disappoint.

225
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:02,000
I just don't necessarily know if I really care about this match.

226
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:07,000
This is one of those, this is going to be a B-match on a B-card.

227
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:13,000
Let's just be completely honest.

228
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:18,000
We got Logan Paul versus Seth Rollins, which looks like it's going to happen.

229
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:22,000
Again, this is probably going to be a match of the night.

230
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:27,000
But it's also one that I'm like, do I really want to see this?

231
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:34,000
Seth Rollins, probably the best overall superstar in the, like if we're talking about athleticism,

232
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:38,000
character, ring ability, work rate, right?

233
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,000
Roman Reigns is great.

234
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:45,000
Like he's the best in the business to me in terms of storytelling and everything.

235
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,000
But Rollins is so good with so little being done for him.

236
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,000
Right? Rollins is great.

237
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,000
Probably right under Roman to me.

238
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:57,000
And then you're going to put in someone like Logan Paul who was built for this business.

239
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:01,000
I'm not going to be the guy that goes, Logan Paul's a disgrace to the business.

240
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,000
Why do they keep using?

241
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,000
No, he's not a disgrace.

242
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:12,000
In fact, I would actually say that he was born for this company and born for this business.

243
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:19,000
And anyone that can promote this and build something that is good and entertaining,

244
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,000
I want him at WrestleMania.

245
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,000
Logan Paul at WrestleMania just makes sense.

246
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:30,000
And him against Seth Rollins, I think it's an intriguing match.

247
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:37,000
And it would not surprise me at all if Logan Paul won this match.

248
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:41,000
For the story that we can tell.

249
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,000
Now let me tell you what that story is.

250
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:47,000
Night one, Seth Rollins versus Logan Paul.

251
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,000
Logan Paul wins.

252
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,000
Seth Rollins loses.

253
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,000
Which irritates Seth Rollins.

254
00:21:55,000 --> 00:22:01,000
Irritates him to the point that night two, he attacks Cody Rhodes.

255
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,000
In the middle of his match, gets him DQ'd.

256
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:16,000
And sets up not only a Rollins versus Cody feud, which I think is where we're headed.

257
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:25,000
But a match at backlash between Roman, Seth, and Cody for the Undisputed Championship.

258
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:31,000
Now why do I think this is going to happen?

259
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,000
Well, you go back to Royal Rumble, Cody enters the ring.

260
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:39,000
First person he sort of introduced to is Seth Rollins.

261
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,000
And what did Seth say?

262
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,000
He's like, you're not taking my moment this time.

263
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,000
Insinuating, hey man you're doing this again, right?

264
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:50,000
Like in my own words, Seth Rollins said to Cody,

265
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:57,000
why every time I get so close to the championship, you stand in my way, right?

266
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:02,000
I get so close, I'm trying to prove myself, trying to get that big win.

267
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,000
So that I can get a title match.

268
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,000
And you stand in my way, right?

269
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:14,000
You come in and interrupt my momentum, right?

270
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:18,000
Because you could argue that if Cody Rhodes wasn't back at Royal Rumble,

271
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:23,000
Seth Rollins would have been an easy pick to win that match, right?

272
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:29,000
And Cody coming back is taking that moment from Seth.

273
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:35,000
And Seth just lost not only his moment in the main event against Roman because of Cody,

274
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:42,000
but because he didn't win Rumble, now he had to face Logan Paul, right?

275
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:50,000
And Seth wouldn't have had to be in that elimination chamber where he got attacked by Logan Paul.

276
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,000
If it wasn't for Cody, right?

277
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,000
He could shift all the blame for all of his problems on Cody,

278
00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:01,000
which makes him instantly a heel, makes Cody a baby face, right?

279
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,000
In the feud, I think it becomes a good feud.

280
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,000
And it also puts Seth back in the title picture, right?

281
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:17,000
You have Seth and Cody sort of fight it out for, you know, a few months.

282
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:26,000
Or this sets up an opportunity where both of them defeat Roman.

283
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,000
In some way, shape, or form, and split the belt at backlash.

284
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,000
Now, I don't know if I personally like that.

285
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:37,000
The rumor that I'm really hoping happens is Roman keeps it till SummerSlam,

286
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,000
and Gunther beats him at SummerSlam.

287
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,000
I would love that.

288
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:46,000
I would eat that up all day. All day.

289
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:51,000
I would eat that up.

290
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:58,000
But I just, I think Seth is losing this match, I'm being completely honest with you.

291
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,000
And when we get to the week of WrestleMania and I do my predictions,

292
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,000
we'll get more into that.

293
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,000
Let's continue.

294
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaking of Gunther, I think he will defend his championship,

295
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000
his Intercontinental Championship.

296
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:15,000
There's a fatal five-way on Friday night to determine who he faces,

297
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:23,000
Sheamus, Drew, LA Knight, Kofi, and I forgot the fifth guy.

298
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,000
But Kofi's injured now, so either Kofi's gonna have to be replaced,

299
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,000
or maybe they just make it a fatal four-way.

300
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:34,000
Either way, I think that's gonna end in some sort of tie,

301
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:38,000
where it ends up being Sheamus and McIntyre in that match.

302
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,000
WWE does this thing where, like, matches like this,

303
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:47,000
they like to put in a triple threat situation.

304
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,000
I think Gunther loses that WrestleMania match,

305
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:57,000
and that's when he gets the big push to SummerSlam,

306
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,000
where he beats Roman Reigns.

307
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:03,000
I think that would make the most perfect sense.

308
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:08,000
I really want Sheamus to win it so that he can become the Grand Slams Champion.

309
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:13,000
You could have Sheamus Penn-McIntyre to win the title,

310
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:20,000
which sets up a feud between Sheamus and Drew for that championship for a few months

311
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,000
while you're building other stars.

312
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,000
I think that's the best way to do it, to be honest with you.

313
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:31,000
I think it's gonna be a triple threat, Gunther versus Drew McIntyre versus Sheamus.

314
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:36,000
We then have...

315
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,000
I'll talk about that in a minute.

316
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,000
Dominik versus Rey Mysterio.

317
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:45,000
I think it's been confirmed, but that's definitely where they're headed.

318
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,000
And this is gonna be an interesting match, I'm being honest with you.

319
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,000
I think it's gonna be very interesting.

320
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:55,000
And I forgot to mention this guy when I talked about Andre the Giant.

321
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,000
Damien Priest probably is gonna win the Andre the Giant Memorial.

322
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:08,000
Think about the momentum that Judgment Day is going to get potentially off of this card.

323
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:19,000
Rio winning the Women's Champion, Damien Priest potentially winning his match

324
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:23,000
with maybe like Andre the Giant.

325
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:31,000
If they do it, another match that I want to talk about is Edge versus Finn Balor.

326
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,000
I think it's gonna happen.

327
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:37,000
Finn Balor's probably gonna win that match, and I hope that ends the feud.

328
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:43,000
But think like Dominik winning, Finn winning, Rio winning, Judgment Day,

329
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,000
it's gonna be Damien Priest winning the Andre the Giant.

330
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,000
Think about all of that momentum.

331
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:54,000
You could then, as the bloodline's going down, you need another faction to take over.

332
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:59,000
Factions just tell the best stories, because there's so many different pieces that you could put in.

333
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:05,000
And so you can have Judgment Day come in with all those momentum after Mania to be that next faction.

334
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:12,000
There's also the potential of a Hurt Business coming back, a new Hurt Business.

335
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,000
We'll talk about that one in a minute.

336
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:19,000
But Dominik versus Ray, it's gonna be that emotional hitter.

337
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:26,000
Edge versus Finn, don't really necessarily care about.

338
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:32,000
Let's talk Brock Lesnar versus Omos, again, don't care about this one.

339
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:39,000
It's not like I'm gonna hate on it, but it's like a B-minus match at best.

340
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:47,000
The best way for them to do this is just have Brock F5 and suplex him a thousand times.

341
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:56,000
Or build up Omos to where he's squashing all these people, and he beats Brock in like two minutes.

342
00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:04,000
That would be hilarious and funny, but also would build Omos up with a little bit of credibility.

343
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:11,000
But I just don't think the fans are behind Omos, so I don't think it's something that we should really care about.

344
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:20,000
Especially if this is Brock Lesnar's last match, as it is being rumored that he's gonna say his goodbyes after WrestleMania.

345
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,000
Having it against Omos is kind of weird.

346
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:28,000
But it's also a way, this also seems like a torch passing moment that Vince McMahon created.

347
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:34,000
Like, hey, we gotta pass the torch to the big giant from Nigeria, let's have him beat Brock.

348
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:38,000
The last match, well there's three more matches we haven't talked about.

349
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:48,000
The last one that I haven't mentioned that I really just don't have a care in the world about is Bobby Lashley versus Bray Wyatt.

350
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,000
I don't care about it, I don't care about Bray Wyatt, I just don't.

351
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:57,000
When he was released as The Fiend, I thought it was good for business.

352
00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:03,000
Because he just didn't make, like, The Fiend was ruined when it lost to Goldberg.

353
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,000
And there was no saving in that character.

354
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:15,000
And then so when he got released, I was like, okay, that's good, he can disappear, they can bring him back in a couple months, year, whatever.

355
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,000
And that's exactly what they did.

356
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:21,000
And so when he came back, like the intrigue of the new character was just so good.

357
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:22,000
That was all behind it.

358
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:34,000
But we're November, December, January, February, March, we're five, almost six months into this new gimmick.

359
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,000
And I don't know what's going on.

360
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,000
No one knows what's going on.

361
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,000
And I'm being told I have to wait.

362
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,000
I'm sorry, who waits five months for anything?

363
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,000
Right?

364
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:48,000
Especially for a story.

365
00:30:48,000 --> 00:31:04,000
Like if I was to write you a story and it was 500 pages long and you got 400 pages into it and nothing happened up to that point to expand the story, you would be like, well, what the hell is going on?

366
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,000
Right?

367
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:10,000
That's a lot of time wasted and nothing happened.

368
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,000
Right?

369
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:21,000
So or if I were to write you a movie, if you were to go to a movie that was four hours long and three hours into the movie, nothing of the plot got explained.

370
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,000
Just a bunch of randomness being put together.

371
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,000
You would be like, what the hell is going on?

372
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,000
Right.

373
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:32,000
And then you would have to say the person beside you said, no, man, you just got to wait it out.

374
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:36,000
But how long do you wait before you say, man, this movie sucks?

375
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,000
Right.

376
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:48,000
And then for Bray Wyatt, you even say one thing bad about Bray Wyatt and the damn cult of of wrestling fans on the Internet attack you.

377
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,000
I'm not interested at all in anything Bray Wyatt has done.

378
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,000
Bray Wyatt did not carry that last feud.

379
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,000
L.A. Knight did.

380
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,000
Right.

381
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:08,000
So I just I don't understand why people continue to to to treat Bray like he's untouchable and he can't be critiqued.

382
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,000
Right.

383
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,000
So then we have the Usos.

384
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,000
What are we doing with the Usos?

385
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:19,000
To me, the best match you could have done would have been.

386
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:33,000
Jay versus Sammy and what what happened on Monday Night Raw on the 6th of March this past Monday, right, where Jay came back and turned on Sammy.

387
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:39,000
I believe that should have happened at Elimination Chamber and what costed Sammy the match.

388
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:43,000
And then they should have began a feud between Sammy and Jay.

389
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,000
I felt that that was the bigger story.

390
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:53,000
If you look at Sammy Zane's story and involvement in the bloodline, he was more involved with the Usos than he ever was involved with Roman Reigns.

391
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:57,000
And so the Usos and Sammy are the bigger story.

392
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:06,000
And I felt him and Jay, Sammy and Jay were the biggest of the stories that you could fulfill here.

393
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,000
But this also could lead to the Sammy Zane redemption story.

394
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,000
Right.

395
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:15,000
Where Sammy Zane gets betrayed by all his friends, they beat him down, beat him down.

396
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,000
He loses to Jay.

397
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:17,000
He loses to Jimmy.

398
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,000
He loses to Solo.

399
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,000
He wins money in the bank.

400
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:28,000
The cash in on Roman where he put where he wins money in the bank.

401
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,000
Right.

402
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,000
I think that's a beautiful story.

403
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,000
I do.

404
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,000
And I think that's how this story has to end.

405
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:46,000
As much as I'd love to see Gunther beat Roman, I think Sammy has to at this point be the guy to do it in a David and Goliath type of way.

406
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:53,000
Where Sammy comes out and Sammy does the uber babyface cash in or he wins it at money in the bank.

407
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:54,000
He grabs a mic.

408
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:59,000
He cuts a really short promo that says Roman, I'm cashing in in Detroit at SummerSlam.

409
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,000
I'll see your bitch ass there.

410
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,000
Something like that.

411
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,000
And then he leaves the ring.

412
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,000
We don't see Sammy Zane till SummerSlam.

413
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:10,000
We don't see Roman Reigns and Sammy interact until SummerSlam.

414
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,000
But Roman knows and he has that he's on notice.

415
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,000
Right.

416
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,000
I'm wrestling at SummerSlam against Sammy Zane.

417
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,000
He's cashing in and Sammy beats him.

418
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:26,000
And then that's I mean Sammy could just be a transitional champion for a month and have Gunther come in and beat the shit out of him.

419
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:27,000
That would be great.

420
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:28,000
Right.

421
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,000
That would be great.

422
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,000
Sammy has to be the guy that beats this though.

423
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,000
He has to.

424
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:45,000
And what I think they're going to do with the story that they're telling is it's going to be Sammy and Kevin versus the Usos at WrestleMania for the tag team champions.

425
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:51,000
I think the Usos lose or I was of the opinion that the Usos were going to lose.

426
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,000
But now after last night, I don't know.

427
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,000
I really don't know.

428
00:34:56,000 --> 00:35:02,000
But I do think we get Kevin and Sammy versus the Usos for the tag team championship.

429
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:08,000
And then of course, the last match is Roman Reigns versus Cody for the Undisputed Championship.

430
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,000
Everyone has their opinion.

431
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,000
I'm not going to predict the match now.

432
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:18,000
We'll wait till you know, two, three weeks from now, four weeks from now when we're doing the prediction show.

433
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:27,000
And yeah, and we'll see what happens with it.

434
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:31,000
I just overall this card is just B plus at best.

435
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:34,000
Like it's not a WrestleMania card.

436
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:38,000
This is something you give me at like SummerSlam or Survivor Series.

437
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:42,000
It doesn't have Hollywood big big fight feel.

438
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:46,000
I think Rollins and Logan Paul are going to be the best match of the night.

439
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,000
Right. Like you had you fail.

440
00:35:49,000 --> 00:36:02,000
And I think it's just because like the idea that we could have the Rock and we could have Austin and we could have seen in a match all at the same time on the same card just really rose the bar of what this could be.

441
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,000
And then to see what we're actually probably going to get.

442
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,000
It's a little disappointing.

443
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:13,000
But with that, we're done discussing WrestleMania for now.

444
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:19,000
Let's talk about what happened on Sunday at a revolution.

445
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:26,000
I'm going to pull up the card real quick because I don't remember everything.

446
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:28,000
So I'll be honest. I watched with my friends.

447
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:37,000
I got there late. I missed the first match with which which was Jericho versus Starks.

448
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:43,000
And I missed that match. Ricky Starks won, which was predictable.

449
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:46,000
Right. You looked at the card. You could figure that out.

450
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:56,000
I entered the match right towards the end of Jungle Boy versus Christian Cage, which was the second match.

451
00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:04,000
So I missed basically about two matches by the time I got to to to my friend's house to watch.

452
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:10,000
And they were the two matches I really don't care about. So I'm not I'm not going to talk about them because I didn't watch them.

453
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:14,000
But from what I heard, they were pretty decent matches.

454
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:20,000
So then we talk about the first full match that I was there to watch the six man tag team match for the A.W.

455
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:30,000
Trios championships between the elite Kenny Omega, Nick Jackson, Matt Jackson and the House of Black Malachi Black Brody King, Buddy Matthews,

456
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:33,000
where the House of Black ended up winning.

457
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:37,000
I liked this match. It wasn't it wasn't like an A plus.

458
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:48,000
But this was a very decent match with a very, very good decision booking wise to have the House of Black win.

459
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:51,000
Like I said, it wasn't anything out of the ordinary.

460
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:55,000
Was your there was a couple of spots in there where it became a spot fest.

461
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:59,000
Your typical elite match.

462
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:11,000
I'll say this, though, with this being really the only like this was like the only match where I felt like, oh, this could probably be like a spot fest.

463
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:19,000
I'll save it for my overall results, but I thoroughly enjoyed that this was like the only match that that that gave that feeling of of spot fest.

464
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:31,000
So the next match after that was Jamie Hader, Sharia and Ruby Soho for the Women's World Championship in which Jamie Hader retained the championship.

465
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,000
This was a solid match, right?

466
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:37,000
Very good. Better than I expected.

467
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:43,000
Again, best decision was made to keep Jamie Hader as champion.

468
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:55,000
At the end of the match, Ruby Soho joined Paige, not Paige, Sharia, sorry, joined Sharia and Tony Storm,

469
00:38:55,000 --> 00:39:05,000
which leads to us to believe that there's going to be you know, they do like that blood and guts match

470
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:13,000
around this time, so that's probably going to be the elimination style match that they do.

471
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:17,000
Sharia, Tony Storm, Ruby Soho.

472
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:23,000
They typically have four per team, but then you have on the other side, Brit and Sharia.

473
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:31,000
If I was a bigger AEW fan, I'd be like, hmm, let's figure out who the other people in this match could be.

474
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:35,000
I don't I don't know a lot about AEW at the moment in their women's division.

475
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:46,000
Some people are probably a lot of people are saying potentially Statlander could come back, maybe Thunder Rosa, things like that.

476
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:50,000
We'll see that in the future.

477
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:53,000
But again, I thought this was a very, very good match.

478
00:39:53,000 --> 00:40:00,000
The next match was Hangman Paige and John Moxley in a Texas death match.

479
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:09,000
I think the rules were you could only win by submission or knockout, something like that.

480
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:15,000
I think if I if I understood the rules right, there were no pins pinfalls.

481
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:19,000
This match was exactly what you thought it was going to be Moxley bled a lot.

482
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,000
Hangman bled a lot.

483
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,000
But it wasn't bad.

484
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:31,000
A lot of times my critique of John Moxley matches is the blood hurts the match.

485
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:39,000
And overall, I would still say with John Moxley, him bleeding every single time he gets in the ring loses the credibility of the blood.

486
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:52,000
Right. If he bled once a year or twice a year in matches that had that big match feel where the blood added to their match like this match needed the blood to sell the story.

487
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,000
It wasn't like a bad thing.

488
00:40:54,000 --> 00:41:01,000
I think the only spot I didn't necessarily like were he literally was like poking his his his brains out.

489
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,000
And I wasn't a big fan of that spot.

490
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,000
Everybody else was. I just wasn't a big fan of that spot.

491
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:16,000
I don't think that would what is needed to get over the idea that, you know, you're you're being bloody and gory.

492
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:22,000
I think that that spot is needed in professional wrestling.

493
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:29,000
Again, I wouldn't say this is a match of the year, but it was it was better than I had expected it to be.

494
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:37,000
We then get Samoa Joe and Wardlow Wardlow wins becomes TNT champion.

495
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:46,000
From what I can tell from Tick Tock and everyone TNT championship picture is like a fucking mess of ring around the rosy hot potato.

496
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:49,000
Who gets it this week?

497
00:41:49,000 --> 00:42:02,000
Then we have the Tag Team Championship four way tag team match for the Tag Team Championship between the guns, the acclaimed Jay Lathol and Jeff Jarrett and Orange Cassidy and Dan Howson.

498
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:09,000
Again, I think the best decision was made and had the guns retain.

499
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:13,000
But I want to go back real quick. I forgot to mention this.

500
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:22,000
Wardlow now has to fight on Wednesday on Dynamite has to fight powerhouse Hobbs, which more than likely Hobbs is going to win that match.

501
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:31,000
My question with this is, is why would you not just make this a triple threat and put Hobbs as the champion or make Hobbs the champion at the pay

502
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,000
review where it means a little bit more?

503
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:37,000
That's that's just it's that's sort of the questionable.

504
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:48,000
That's probably the most questionable booking decision made it this entire night of why does not put Hobbs in this match?

505
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:53,000
So the guns, though, do retain.

506
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,000
I'll tell you something.

507
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,000
The guns got a new fan out of me.

508
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:07,000
And as someone who doesn't didn't really know much about, you know, the tag team division in AW, they don't really pay attention to AW.

509
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,000
I like the guns.

510
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:12,000
I do. I like their aesthetic.

511
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:16,000
They they have that they have a good look to them.

512
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:22,000
We'll talk about that as a review of some of the people that you know that I enjoyed out of the show.

513
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:26,000
Like if I was a new viewer who I would be cheering for.

514
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:31,000
I mean, the Iron Man, 60 Man Iron Man match for the World Championship.

515
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:36,000
MJF won four to three over Bryan Danielson and an overtime sudden death.

516
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:42,000
This story was the story of this match was fantastic.

517
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,000
I was on the edge of my seat the entire time in this match.

518
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:51,000
It was a solid match and dare I say probably the best match of the year so far.

519
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:57,000
It's hard to that's hard to say because Roman versus Sammy was pretty damn good.

520
00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:03,000
I don't know how long it stays as top of my match of the year candidates.

521
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:07,000
But.

522
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:16,000
Especially with WrestleMania having Logan Paul and Seth Rollins on it, which I think is going to be instantly a very good match.

523
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:20,000
I think Roman versus Cody has the potential to be a very good match.

524
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:26,000
If we ever get Roman and Sammy again, that's potentially going to be a match of the year match.

525
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:32,000
I think we had a lot of match of the year candidates so far.

526
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:36,000
But I think we got to put MJF and Bryan Danielson on that list.

527
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:43,000
One of the best matches I've seen in a long time from AEW.

528
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:44,000
And.

529
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,000
A lot of it had to do with the pacing.

530
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:56,000
A lot of times when you get these timed 60 minute Iron Man style matches like this, everyone goes out and it's a spot fest for 60 minutes.

531
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:00,000
And that wears out an audience super quick.

532
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,000
They did a very good job.

533
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:06,000
Now, there's a story breaking out of this match where MJF was in the crowd.

534
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:11,000
They were in the crowd and MJF took a drink, whether it was water or tequila.

535
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:14,000
I don't really think it matters for what I'm about to say.

536
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:20,000
And he took it from a woman and he threw it on that woman's son.

537
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:21,000
Here's my thing.

538
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,000
A lot of people are saying, oh, this makes MJF.

539
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,000
This is why he's the best he'll ever know.

540
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:32,000
I have the complete opposite reaction to that that move.

541
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,000
I think that was disrespectful.

542
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:39,000
I think it technically is classified as assault.

543
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,000
And I don't think it's needed in wrestling.

544
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,000
I'm all for a good heel character.

545
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:53,000
But if your best ability as a heel, if the thing you do best is piss people off or get the cheap heat, you're not a good heel.

546
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,000
Anyone can get cheap heat.

547
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,000
Anyone can walk into a city and call it a trash hole.

548
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:04,000
Anyone can can can do meet and greets and insult people.

549
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:08,000
Anyone can take a drink and throw it on it on a child.

550
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,000
That's not that's not good heel work.

551
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,000
That doesn't make you a good heel.

552
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:16,000
What makes you a good heel is storyline.

553
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:21,000
Right. Roman Reigns is a better heel than MJF because.

554
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:27,000
Roman Reigns storyline is so fucking good.

555
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:34,000
And I'm not saying this story wasn't good, but Roman doesn't have to do the cheap heat tactics.

556
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,000
He doesn't have to insult you.

557
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,000
He doesn't have to pour water and popcorn on you.

558
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,000
You know what Roman has to do?

559
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,000
Roman's music just has to play and he gets booed.

560
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,000
Why?

561
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:50,000
Because of the story that is being told.

562
00:46:50,000 --> 00:47:00,000
Right. At the end of the day, if you have to result to cheap heat, it's because your story that is the story that you're telling is not good.

563
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:03,000
And there really is no story with MJF.

564
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,000
There's been no character development.

565
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:10,000
He's bland, one dimensional, and his his stick is his run out of time.

566
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,000
Everyone's used to it now.

567
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:18,000
He does the same thing with every feud that he's in.

568
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:19,000
And it's bland.

569
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:20,000
It's one dimensional.

570
00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:28,000
And at this point, I just I think MJF is like he's probably in the top five active heels right now.

571
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:32,000
But I can name at least two that I like better than I like Roman better.

572
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,000
And personally, I think Grayson Waller is better.

573
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:41,000
Grayson Waller is so much better than MJF, in my opinion.

574
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:44,000
That's just that's just how I how I see it.

575
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:49,000
I think I think Grayson Waller is more entertaining.

576
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:53,000
I think he has, I believe, better promos.

577
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:56,000
And I think he's better in the in the ring.

578
00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:03,000
Grayson Waller does some shit where like I'm like, why did why would you do that?

579
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:07,000
Like Grayson Waller to me is is better than it is just overall better.

580
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:08,000
And that's my opinion.

581
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,000
You don't have to agree with me.

582
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,000
But Grayson Waller to me is better than MJF.

583
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:17,000
I don't think there's any debating that.

584
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:18,000
Like I said, this was matchup.

585
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,000
This is a potential match of the year candidate.

586
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:26,000
It's just some of those tactics don't have to be done to be a good heel.

587
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:31,000
And I even as a heel, I would live by at least one rule as a wrestler.

588
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,000
Don't assault the fan.

589
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:34,000
Don't assault.

590
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:39,000
You can insult I.N.S. U.L.T.

591
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:44,000
You can insult the fans that that's good fan engagement is right.

592
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:45,000
Insulting the fans.

593
00:48:45,000 --> 00:49:08,000
But when you assault a s s a u l t, when you assault the fans, when you basically commit a crime, like if like if I was just a random passerby or a fan who took that that drink out of the woman's hand and threw it on her son, she could legally press charges on me.

594
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:10,000
For assaulting her child.

595
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,000
That is the definition of assault.

596
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:22,000
Right. And so as a wrestling promoter, I would never promote illegal activity that wasn't within the bounds of the story.

597
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,000
First off, it added nothing to the match.

598
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:30,000
So he just got heat for the sake of getting heat and it added nothing to the match.

599
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,000
Right.

600
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:36,000
The best tea does heat that adds something to the match and add something to the story.

601
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,000
And this did nothing for the story.

602
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,000
Right.

603
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,000
I guess that the match itself was great.

604
00:49:43,000 --> 00:49:49,000
I just don't as this is the area where like like if I'm Tony Khan.

605
00:49:49,000 --> 00:50:02,000
And I'm backstage at the press conference like Tony Khan just sitting here letting MJF get away with assault and you have the count like he basically had to give away free stuff to this kid, which is fine.

606
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:08,000
But that's damage control because one of your employees did stupid shit.

607
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:11,000
This shouldn't happen.

608
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:17,000
Right. You shouldn't allow assault to happen.

609
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,000
At one of your shows.

610
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:37,000
Right. In the same method as like I would if if if I was a promoter and one of my employees, if one of my wrestlers that I have signed to work for me for even if it was just a night were to hit.

611
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:49,000
On purpose, a fan like sometimes like you'll fly over the barricade and like land on a person or or something get thrown over the barricade and land on a that that happened.

612
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:58,000
Right. If you sit front row at an indie show or even at WWE and expect sweat blood whatever to get on you.

613
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,000
You should expect that.

614
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:20,000
But if you're like four rows deep and you're working the crowd you're in the crowd you're maybe it's like a no DQ match and you're in the crowd and you're and a fan says something to you like I've seen it before and like old school tapes or like wrestlers would like punch fans or whatever.

615
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:26,000
Right. Like like if you do something like that you're no longer working for me and you're not getting paid for that show.

616
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:47,000
Right. You're getting and or like even in like Tony Khan's case like if I'm Tony Khan and MJF does this at the press conference I'm finding him I'm announcing a legitimate fine not a storyline fine a legitimate fine and he's been suspended.

617
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,000
That that's that's what happens.

618
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:53,000
And I make that public at the at the press conference.

619
00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:58,000
Because you don't do things like that. You just don't do things like that. Right. Right.

620
00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:08,000
MJF shows up at the press conference before he even starts talking buddy. You could you could do what you want. I can let you do what you want to do but I got to announce this first.

621
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:23,000
You you threw a drink on a child with that being said you will be fined one hundred grand and or you know you'll be fined your pay per view check.

622
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:26,000
You'll get paid your normal salary but your pay per view check.

623
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:41,000
I'm assuming that's how Tony Khan pays on because I think they're listed as employees of and of if I understand it correctly they're listed as employees of a W.

624
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:47,000
So I think he pays them like a salary and then he pays them like their pay per view bonus.

625
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:57,000
And so I would be at least that's the way that I would set it up. And so I would be like you know you're you get you'll get your salary but your your pay per view bonus has been fine.

626
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:03,000
You're not going to get that and you're going to be suspended for two weeks. Right.

627
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:08,000
And then leave it at that. Right. That that would be what I would. That's how I would handle that.

628
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:12,000
That would nip that in the butt right away. Right.

629
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:17,000
I just I just don't think it's acceptable for anyone. I don't care who you are in the wrestling industry.

630
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:26,000
If Roman Reigns took a went into the crowd and assaulted a fan same thing should happen to him.

631
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:30,000
He should be fined. He should be penalized. He should be suspended. Right.

632
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:39,000
I just don't think it's proper business ethics to be OK with a fan being assaulted on live TV.

633
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:43,000
I just don't think that's fine. I don't think that's fine in any business. Right.

634
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:53,000
Because at the end of the day they're there to watch you not be not have a drink spilled on especially if it was alcoholic.

635
00:53:53,000 --> 00:54:04,000
Right. Overall though with this show I will say this if I was a new fan who had no idea who what A.W. was and this was the first show I was introduced to.

636
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:10,000
And I really haven't watched A.W. since Forbidden Door last year.

637
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:16,000
I'm be completely honest they actually kept up with it and watched the segments and the matches.

638
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:21,000
They made some fans out of me now or I watch for full gear.

639
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:25,000
I don't actually remember.

640
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,000
It's been a while since I remember keeping up with it.

641
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:31,000
They run four pay-per-views a year and I don't even remember like when they run them.

642
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:37,000
Did I watch all out. I think I think I did watch all out.

643
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:40,000
I don't know. I don't remember to be honest.

644
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,000
I don't keep up with A.W. That's the point.

645
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:48,000
But I may have to start keeping up with it if Tony Khan is going to continue to book the way he did.

646
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,000
Like I said the booking decisions were great.

647
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:53,000
I don't have a lot to complain about in the booking department.

648
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:57,000
The women's division from what I saw is getting a little better.

649
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:01,000
Now I've seen some parts of like like I'm not watching Rampage.

650
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:05,000
I'm not watching Dark. I watch Dynamite and I watched pay-per-views.

651
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:15,000
I I enjoyed I honestly I honestly enjoyed Revolution.

652
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:18,000
I did.

653
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:23,000
So the guys that I really enjoy the most the Gun Club.

654
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:27,000
Probably my new favorite tag team there.

655
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:38,000
They're probably going to be in a few with FTR which is going to be a freaking great food even though FTR is probably going to win the titles back from them.

656
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,000
Jamie Hader and Britt Baker.

657
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:43,000
I I've loved them forever.

658
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:47,000
When I say forever I mean since they really you know became a thing.

659
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:50,000
Britt Baker is the best woman on the on that roster.

660
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:54,000
And Jamie Hader is a close second.

661
00:55:54,000 --> 00:56:00,000
And I think both of them are top 10 women in the industry if not top five.

662
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:04,000
I think in the industry active for twenty twenty three.

663
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:10,000
I think right now Rhea Ripley is the best followed by Bianca.

664
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:15,000
I think Britt and Jamie are three and four and five.

665
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,000
I really don't care about.

666
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:23,000
I'm beyond would you I think I think those are the top four and I think I think Jamie and Britt are up there.

667
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:27,000
I think I think Jade is top 10 right.

668
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:34,000
Like I'm not I'm not going to be but I think Jamie Hader is probably the best thing for a W right now.

669
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:41,000
Brits had a lot of runs here of late in the company and so I think her being sort of like a manager.

670
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:47,000
One I think it works better for her scheduling wise because she is a literal dentist.

671
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:53,000
But I also think like Jamie Hader I think is is more over than Britt at the moment.

672
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:58,000
And I just don't see Jamie losing the belt at this point.

673
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:03,000
Will be interesting to see where that leads though.

674
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:06,000
See who else I like Hobbs I've always liked Hobbs.

675
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:10,000
I've thought Hobbs should have been pushed a hell of a lot earlier.

676
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:12,000
I like Ricky Starks.

677
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:19,000
I think he's the future of the brand from the show.

678
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:20,000
That's about it.

679
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:23,000
But but but that's a foundation.

680
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:39,000
Like if I were to come into AEW right now right and I might even consider doing what like a roster revamp like I did for WWE for AEW because I think there's a lot of people I would just completely get rid of in AEW.

681
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:49,000
But if I were to come into AEW now like I would push the women's division through Jade and Jamie Hader and Britt Baker.

682
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:51,000
Those would be the top three women.

683
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:56,000
I probably would actually have that be the first big feud that I would have.

684
00:57:56,000 --> 00:58:09,000
And I would have Jade cash in her TBS championship for the for a straight front of the line championship match against Jamie Hader.

685
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:11,000
And I'd probably would have Jade win that.

686
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:15,000
I don't have Jade lose a belt to not get one in return.

687
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:23,000
But I think I would make that be the feud for the first three or four months where Jade cashes in.

688
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:28,000
So I would have them feud and then Jade cashes in.

689
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:41,000
But the the cash in policy is next pay per view right would be my policy where you cash in at the next pay per view not whenever you want you cash in at the next pay per view would be my policy.

690
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:47,000
And so I would have Jade cash in that title against Jamie Hader.

691
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:51,000
I would probably have it be done at all out.

692
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:55,000
I think that's like their WrestleMania right.

693
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:57,000
So that would be something that I would do.

694
00:58:57,000 --> 00:59:04,000
I would build around FTR and the Gun Club and the acclaimed as much as I don't like them are very good tag team.

695
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,000
They're over.

696
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:09,000
There's a lot of other things that I've watched on like Rampage.

697
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:14,000
I'm not a big fan of on the tag team division but definitely the Gun Club.

698
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:15,000
I would build behind.

699
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:23,000
I think they're very good tag team the acclaimed FTR I think is one of the best in the world.

700
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:31,000
I think other people I would build the company behind.

701
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:33,000
I don't really know. I would have to look through the roster.

702
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:34,000
I'm sure they got a lot.

703
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:38,000
Ricky Starks is one of them.

704
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:39,000
Yeah.

705
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:48,000
I just one final word that I'll say is it's sad that the All-Atlantic Championship like you built this new championship.

706
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:52,000
It's on the card but it's not being defended.

707
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:59,000
In fact the champion is in a tag team match that just tells you that this title means nothing.

708
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:00,000
Right.

709
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:03,000
Also I would build behind powerhouse Hobbs.

710
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,000
He would be my big star.

711
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:18,000
Right. I think Starks and Hobbs could run the the the single scene build behind the Gun Club and FTR and build behind Jade and Jamie Hader in the women's division.

712
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:29,000
And I think you got a pretty decent car watching this showed me a W's got some potential if Tony could just stop the stupid shit from happening.

713
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:37,000
And what it also showed me was this isn't as bad as I thought it was.

714
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:46,000
And it isn't as bad as the the the WWE only fans have convinced me that it was.

715
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:56,000
If you booked the way you booked revolution continuously where it wasn't it where it isn't match with a shit ton of spots and match with a shit ton of spots.

716
01:00:56,000 --> 01:01:16,000
But what I also think is our eight starting has helped like with it now being on what honor club with our weight actually being a brand and you get guys like Eddie Kingston and Joe is finally going to go away from a W and Claudio's gone and stuff like that.

717
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:36,000
I think it's going to benefit a W dynamite as a show because you don't have the R.O.H. influence right on the show like leading up to I think the last show that I last pay per view there was a lot of R.O.H. influence because Tony was trying to build our weight.

718
01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:37,000
I get that.

719
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:39,000
But it took away from a W.

720
01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:42,000
Right. So I don't think a W is all that in the trash.

721
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,000
I don't like I really enjoyed this pay per view.

722
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,000
It's like a B plus for me.

723
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:53,000
And I think we could potentially get a match of the year candidate out of it with Brian Danielson and MJF.

724
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:56,000
So overall good experience.

725
01:01:56,000 --> 01:02:03,000
I may have to tune in Wednesday to watch dynamite and we'll see what happens.

726
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:07,000
But until next time this has been the slap of me wrestling podcast.

727
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:08,000
