1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:29,020
are we doing,

2
00:00:29,020 --> 00:00:32,020
I'm wearing green Greeks today.

3
00:00:32,020 --> 00:00:32,520
Yeah.

4
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,020
That a thing for everybody.

5
00:00:34,020 --> 00:00:35,520
Yes.

6
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,020
I'm happy to be on my green outfit.

7
00:00:37,020 --> 00:00:38,520
Happy St. Patrick's Day.

8
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,020
Happy St. Patrick's Day to everybody.

9
00:00:41,020 --> 00:00:43,520
Welcome to the TFW Podcast.

10
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:50,020
I am Matt, your host, joined by my esteemed co-host, Eshaan

11
00:00:50,020 --> 00:00:52,520
Rhodesia.

12
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:56,020
Let's get this party started.

13
00:00:56,020 --> 00:00:58,520
We starting with the rock, right?

14
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,020
I think you kind of have to.

15
00:01:01,020 --> 00:01:03,520
I mean, we could start with Mercedes.

16
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,520
She has the wrestling world ablaze also.

17
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,020
But it's up to y'all.

18
00:01:09,020 --> 00:01:10,020
Where do y'all want to start?

19
00:01:10,020 --> 00:01:13,520
Y'all want to go with Dwayne setting the internet on fire

20
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:17,520
again and setting SmackDown on fire and having to have a creative

21
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:22,020
guy put messages out on Twitter because they're talking about his

22
00:01:22,020 --> 00:01:25,520
segments are running long and Brian is like his segment was 30

23
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,520
seconds less than the 20 minute a lot of time.

24
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:34,020
So Brian, he needs to do what I said months ago.

25
00:01:34,020 --> 00:01:34,520
Shut the fuck up.

26
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:35,520
It's the rock.

27
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,020
That's it.

28
00:01:37,020 --> 00:01:38,020
These folks out here.

29
00:01:38,020 --> 00:01:39,020
I swear.

30
00:01:39,020 --> 00:01:45,520
Yes, the rock is one of our goals, but the amount of people and it

31
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,520
is the minority, but the amount of people I'm seeing complaining

32
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,520
and bitching and moaning about the amount of time rocks getting

33
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,020
on TV.

34
00:01:53,020 --> 00:01:54,520
Like, come on guys.

35
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,520
Did see this is one of those moments where it's like, all right,

36
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:58,520
you're a little too inside.

37
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:03,520
A little too inside because everybody is excited to have the rock

38
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:04,020
back.

39
00:02:04,020 --> 00:02:09,020
The rock is a bonafide legend in our game and you see near bitching

40
00:02:09,020 --> 00:02:10,520
and moaning about the amount of time.

41
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:11,020
Yes.

42
00:02:11,020 --> 00:02:11,520
Come on, man.

43
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:12,020
Come on.

44
00:02:12,020 --> 00:02:14,520
But anyway, any who he let's start with you.

45
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:20,520
So Dwayne basically made fun of your guy crying on Monday and he

46
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,520
said that was your chance to come back.

47
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,520
And what do you do?

48
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,520
You start crying as a fellow.

49
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,520
Cody crybaby as a fellow Cody fan.

50
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:33,520
How did that make you feel?

51
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,520
Are you are you like, hey, this is just the business or you starting

52
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,520
to work yourself into a shoot a little bit?

53
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,520
You know, I don't have a problem with Cody crying because you know

54
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:43,020
what?

55
00:02:43,020 --> 00:02:46,520
Because as a older man myself now, I find myself tearing up at random

56
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:47,020
things.

57
00:02:47,020 --> 00:02:49,520
I'll talk about my family too and how important they are to me.

58
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:50,520
All right.

59
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,520
Just I can't talk about I was I was talking to Matt the other day.

60
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:55,520
My dad.

61
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,020
God bless him.

62
00:02:57,020 --> 00:03:00,520
He turned 78 years old and I didn't realize that he was that old to

63
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,020
that shout out to that.

64
00:03:02,020 --> 00:03:06,520
But what I realized is that you know, since moving to Georgia that I

65
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,020
only see him maybe twice a year.

66
00:03:08,020 --> 00:03:10,520
He comes down to visit me for Thanksgiving.

67
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,020
I come down and visit him during the summer.

68
00:03:13,020 --> 00:03:16,320
I'm like, man, you know, in the past five years, I've been here only

69
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,520
seem twice a year and the thought of start tearing me up.

70
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,020
I started talking about my family was important to me.

71
00:03:21,020 --> 00:03:21,720
I started tearing up.

72
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,820
That's why I feel something for Cody.

73
00:03:23,820 --> 00:03:26,220
That's why he's so relatable from the core fans.

74
00:03:26,220 --> 00:03:30,020
Now, here's the thing about the rock his at whoops, we got company.

75
00:03:30,020 --> 00:03:37,220
So I can't I can't go in like I want to I got company his but he going

76
00:03:37,220 --> 00:03:37,820
over the line.

77
00:03:37,820 --> 00:03:42,520
Y'all his ass going to goddamn far talk about his mama.

78
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,020
We bring in mama Rose into this.

79
00:03:46,020 --> 00:03:50,720
The way I refuse to call you by a mineral anymore.

80
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,120
You're the way Mr.

81
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,820
Johnson, you going too far son.

82
00:03:53,820 --> 00:03:56,520
We talked about mama's see this is what I'm talking about.

83
00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,520
So you going too far because as a older black man, he should be

84
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,720
bringing up the black culture and the community.

85
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:04,620
What's he doing to Cody?

86
00:04:04,620 --> 00:04:05,820
He turned a young man down.

87
00:04:05,820 --> 00:04:09,720
He ain't bringing that young black brother up with him.

88
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:10,720
He turned him down.

89
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,620
He turned on his mama.

90
00:04:12,620 --> 00:04:16,120
That's when he's going too far.

91
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,720
I am I am no longer a rock fan.

92
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,620
Whoa, no longer a rock fan.

93
00:04:21,620 --> 00:04:25,920
Our mama's into the into the equation.

94
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,520
Okay, talk about the daddies.

95
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:28,320
We built for this.

96
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:29,020
Okay, that's cool.

97
00:04:32,220 --> 00:04:33,620
No, no, no, no, sir.

98
00:04:33,620 --> 00:04:35,220
You've gone too far guys.

99
00:04:35,220 --> 00:04:40,720
He turned you he finally turned you the rock is doing his job

100
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:45,220
because if Esha when we just did our top 20 list, what you

101
00:04:45,220 --> 00:04:46,320
have you had on top three, right?

102
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:47,820
Yeah, third or second.

103
00:04:47,820 --> 00:04:49,620
I think maybe second.

104
00:04:49,620 --> 00:04:50,420
Love it.

105
00:04:50,420 --> 00:04:51,520
This is what it's about.

106
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,320
This is the emotion we are supposed to have and if Roman

107
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,020
Reigns gets his hand raised on night two because the rock

108
00:04:58,020 --> 00:04:58,620
interfered.

109
00:04:58,620 --> 00:04:59,920
God dog.

110
00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:05,420
Hey, Matt, Roman Reigns who we should talk about that guy.

111
00:05:05,420 --> 00:05:10,320
Hey, they got a next Friday or this Friday got to heat it up.

112
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,520
He still go there man face to face with Cody.

113
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:14,420
All right.

114
00:05:14,420 --> 00:05:22,520
This is this is your opportunity to put the onus back on Roman

115
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,820
and Cody for night two of WrestleMania and sell that they've

116
00:05:26,820 --> 00:05:29,220
done a incredible job of selling the tag match.

117
00:05:29,220 --> 00:05:32,620
They've done an incredible job of making us feel like what

118
00:05:32,620 --> 00:05:35,220
does the rock mean by saying he'll make Seth's title go away

119
00:05:35,220 --> 00:05:38,620
which drew actually kind of shout out the rock on raw Monday.

120
00:05:38,620 --> 00:05:41,620
So I think we got some going there may you know, they're

121
00:05:41,620 --> 00:05:44,920
doing a fantastic job of making us want to see rock and Cody,

122
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:49,220
but they really done much around Roman and Cody so getting

123
00:05:49,220 --> 00:05:51,820
to face to face on Smackdown should be pretty fantastic.

124
00:05:51,820 --> 00:05:54,820
I have a question for both of you and we're these I'll start

125
00:05:54,820 --> 00:05:58,120
with you because ease answer probably won't change.

126
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:02,720
What's how is this run?

127
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,420
For you impacting rocks legacy.

128
00:06:06,420 --> 00:06:08,520
He's about rocks run.

129
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:13,720
Yes, I think it's he can't get much higher than two because

130
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,520
again Undertaker is number one on my list of all-time favorite

131
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:21,420
wrestlers, but and I think he will always be but it's only

132
00:06:21,420 --> 00:06:22,120
going to make it better.

133
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:22,920
It's going to make it.

134
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,720
He already had a such a legendary career already.

135
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,520
So now you put this on top of that already.

136
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,820
Now we got to also see him work.

137
00:06:31,820 --> 00:06:33,920
So let's also put put that out there.

138
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,720
Last time we saw him work. He was exhausted.

139
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:37,820
He blew up pretty quick.

140
00:06:37,820 --> 00:06:41,820
But again, he doesn't do it all the time but legacy wise.

141
00:06:41,820 --> 00:06:44,820
This is only made it even grander to me because you get

142
00:06:44,820 --> 00:06:47,920
somebody like Esha who had him number two on his list now

143
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,920
hates them chopped them all the way down like come on like

144
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:52,120
that.

145
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,520
That's sky blue now over the ride.

146
00:06:57,220 --> 00:06:57,920
That's nuts.

147
00:06:59,220 --> 00:07:01,320
You see her lately you put her over there all over him.

148
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:02,620
She's already in my top five.

149
00:07:02,620 --> 00:07:05,320
We got top wait, what's up?

150
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:06,220
Five is we Tomo here.

151
00:07:06,220 --> 00:07:07,720
Oh, that's a good call.

152
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:08,420
You're right.

153
00:07:08,420 --> 00:07:09,020
My bad.

154
00:07:09,020 --> 00:07:09,520
My bad.

155
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:10,320
Yes, she's not that high.

156
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:18,120
Yeah, I thought about it and there is a possibility when

157
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,320
this run is all said and done.

158
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,120
Meaning when we finally do get rock Roman how that plays

159
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:24,520
out.

160
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:31,320
I actually might move him to number one over Austin.

161
00:07:32,820 --> 00:07:38,520
I'm thinking that highly of what he's doing right now.

162
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,220
It's that entertaining to me.

163
00:07:41,220 --> 00:07:44,620
Like I look forward to these Friday afternoon Instagram

164
00:07:44,620 --> 00:07:48,920
drops and he hasn't like missed yet and you know, there were

165
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:53,220
there was some talk online about people are upset because

166
00:07:53,220 --> 00:07:56,020
his language, you know, some maybe some of the other talent

167
00:07:56,020 --> 00:07:58,820
is saying well hell if we can go out there and curse we could

168
00:07:58,820 --> 00:08:03,020
be over to but you couldn't but you can't because Seth was

169
00:08:03,020 --> 00:08:06,120
just on Twitter two weeks ago calling drew a bitch and I

170
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,220
think calling rock a bitch.

171
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:12,820
He's not anymore over drew is showing you creatively how to

172
00:08:12,820 --> 00:08:15,220
use social media to get over.

173
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:20,320
He's another one that is bad in a thousand right now, but

174
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,620
that's how much like this run is is doing like the he's

175
00:08:23,620 --> 00:08:26,520
playing all the hits in a good way, you know, like typically

176
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,720
you can come back and play the hits and this is like, all

177
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,520
right, like you're coasted.

178
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,220
Yep, you're at legend acts and you just going through your

179
00:08:34,220 --> 00:08:36,620
thing and he's not doing that at all.

180
00:08:36,620 --> 00:08:39,920
Like the rock concert, you know, some people may not have

181
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:40,520
liked it.

182
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,420
I think the majority really really enjoyed it.

183
00:08:42,620 --> 00:08:46,620
But to me it lived up to the rock having a concert it lived

184
00:08:46,620 --> 00:08:51,120
up to heal the rock him bringing back the music and then

185
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,120
flipping it midway through the entrance song like not just

186
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,920
coming out with that music and even if like we don't get

187
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,420
that again say that was just a one-off because hey, I'm

188
00:08:59,420 --> 00:09:02,620
doing the rock concert and I'm going to bring it back for

189
00:09:02,620 --> 00:09:04,720
people who appreciate it who enjoy it.

190
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,620
That's playing the hits the right way.

191
00:09:06,620 --> 00:09:09,120
That's playing the hits words like thank you for doing

192
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,620
that that meant something to pose him just kind of coming

193
00:09:11,620 --> 00:09:15,720
out and doing the thing and he even like how the music hit

194
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,520
and how he walked to the ring much more slow and much more

195
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,820
methodical and then hitting that line at the end of his

196
00:09:23,820 --> 00:09:28,320
promo and it was like that's he shows the goosebumps all

197
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:28,820
the time.

198
00:09:28,820 --> 00:09:34,320
That's goosebump worthy material and the thing that allegedly

199
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,020
this was you know, we already said it.

200
00:09:37,020 --> 00:09:39,320
I don't think this was the plan but this wasn't a plan to

201
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:39,920
start.

202
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,520
I can't imagine that that makes me that much more grand

203
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:48,220
Romans bill being as good as this in a short amount of time

204
00:09:48,220 --> 00:09:50,220
right like if they would have went with the press conference

205
00:09:50,420 --> 00:09:53,320
rocking Roman and then to try to tell the entire bloodline

206
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,120
story leading up it wouldn't have been this because he

207
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,420
wouldn't have been the Hill and rock Hill is what's best

208
00:09:59,420 --> 00:10:02,920
for business cream rises to the top under pressure or just

209
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:03,620
at any point.

210
00:10:03,620 --> 00:10:07,320
So when you get somebody as good as the rock and he has

211
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,620
been in a pivot happens.

212
00:10:09,620 --> 00:10:14,420
This is when the cream of the cream goes to the top.

213
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,520
So II have a quick question for you.

214
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,620
I know Matt kind of asked you one even though you didn't

215
00:10:20,620 --> 00:10:23,820
like what he said and I think he was personally attacking

216
00:10:23,820 --> 00:10:24,520
Cody's mom.

217
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,420
I think he was just saying hey, you going to be in the front

218
00:10:26,420 --> 00:10:26,720
row.

219
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,320
You're going to watch and witness keep her name on your

220
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:29,820
mouth right?

221
00:10:29,820 --> 00:10:30,320
You're right.

222
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,720
So let's go to the name on your mouth.

223
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,520
I appreciate that a little bit a little bit.

224
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:38,820
You can't agree that this shit is entertaining as hell since

225
00:10:38,820 --> 00:10:39,420
he's been back.

226
00:10:39,420 --> 00:10:40,920
When you agree to that at least.

227
00:10:41,220 --> 00:10:42,220
Oh, yeah, he's entertaining.

228
00:10:42,220 --> 00:10:42,620
Definitely.

229
00:10:42,620 --> 00:10:45,820
I mean, that's the thing about the rock that stands him above

230
00:10:46,220 --> 00:10:47,720
like other wrestlers.

231
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:48,620
He's an entertainer.

232
00:10:48,820 --> 00:10:51,620
He he gets what wrestling is and what is all about is always

233
00:10:51,620 --> 00:10:52,520
been about the entertainment.

234
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:53,820
So I was being about the charisma.

235
00:10:54,220 --> 00:10:56,520
It's always been about the mic and he captures all of that.

236
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,220
Yeah, he's an entertaining man.

237
00:10:58,220 --> 00:11:02,220
That's why he translated so well to the to the box office,

238
00:11:02,220 --> 00:11:02,420
right?

239
00:11:02,420 --> 00:11:05,320
Why his movies are great and we enjoy his movies because he

240
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,820
is a personality on personal unlike any we've seen.

241
00:11:08,820 --> 00:11:11,720
I'm just very interested to see what the Roman got to do

242
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:16,120
because he's been he like is like I said before he has a

243
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:17,920
quiet confidence about himself.

244
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:18,820
He's not over top.

245
00:11:18,820 --> 00:11:20,220
He's not really dramatic.

246
00:11:20,220 --> 00:11:22,920
I feel like his music is if you underwhelming a lot to be

247
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:23,420
honest with you.

248
00:11:23,420 --> 00:11:32,420
Oh, yeah, just in comparison to the rock and his music just

249
00:11:32,420 --> 00:11:33,720
to me.

250
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,120
I think it's very generic.

251
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,620
So even when you first got the music.

252
00:11:37,620 --> 00:11:38,920
So we never separate.

253
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,920
I'm not a fan, but I think it fits his character because

254
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,220
he's he's kind of like a I don't say a slow burn, but he

255
00:11:47,220 --> 00:11:51,320
has like a you know, he's like a fire that's just you know,

256
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:52,320
it's never out of control.

257
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,320
It's just always burning is bright.

258
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:55,420
It just comes right.

259
00:11:55,420 --> 00:11:58,020
It's not this big grand thing.

260
00:11:58,320 --> 00:11:59,120
His music is like that.

261
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:03,620
It's just like a very think it fits him.

262
00:12:03,620 --> 00:12:08,420
What to me like his music was always ironically like the

263
00:12:08,420 --> 00:12:12,120
final boss of a video game when you hear this music and you

264
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,420
get to Bowser the final time.

265
00:12:15,420 --> 00:12:20,220
Oh, this is that so it's ironic that the Rock is now starting

266
00:12:20,220 --> 00:12:23,720
to call himself the final boss, but it's gonna be entertaining

267
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:23,920
man.

268
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,620
It's gonna be entertaining to see what they do to really

269
00:12:26,620 --> 00:12:32,920
stroke the fire for Roman and Cody if they do right like

270
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,320
maybe say what if somehow all eyes are again on the rock.

271
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,020
I don't think rocks not scheduled to be there but something

272
00:12:38,020 --> 00:12:42,020
happened where he takes front page again because and it keeps

273
00:12:42,020 --> 00:12:46,020
showing it when he told rock to acknowledge him and a rock

274
00:12:46,020 --> 00:12:47,120
acknowledged him.

275
00:12:47,620 --> 00:12:49,320
He did not have a smile on his face.

276
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,020
He still had a worried.

277
00:12:55,620 --> 00:12:58,120
I guess you could say worried look on his face and like he

278
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,620
still knows that yeah, you acknowledge me, but you and I

279
00:13:01,620 --> 00:13:05,720
both know you're you're the head you can see the tension you

280
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,420
can see the 10 and which is beautiful right?

281
00:13:07,420 --> 00:13:09,520
I love the storytelling, you know something's coming.

282
00:13:09,820 --> 00:13:13,120
We don't know when it might not be WrestleMania night one or

283
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,220
two, but something's coming is going to be great.

284
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,520
I mean if you think about high chief and tribal chief, I

285
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,020
think the high chief would be the highest position consider

286
00:13:21,020 --> 00:13:25,120
the names exactly so and he and every time he talks about

287
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,120
his grandfather as he should and as he would he always mentions

288
00:13:28,220 --> 00:13:31,020
high chief high chief so they're playing those little things

289
00:13:31,020 --> 00:13:33,820
out there that we still know at the end of the day one time

290
00:13:33,820 --> 00:13:36,120
the Rock is is the Dundatta.

291
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,320
But yeah, we are just you know talking to Brandon we were

292
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,320
texting a couple days ago after he watched the segment and

293
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:46,820
he's just like man like this is incredible like for him.

294
00:13:46,820 --> 00:13:49,120
He's like I feel like we're back in the attitude era and

295
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,120
I'm just like man like we can't we can't take this for granted

296
00:13:52,420 --> 00:13:55,820
what we have WB was already clicking on majority of cylinders

297
00:13:55,820 --> 00:13:59,020
and now you add the Rock to it and it's just like this is

298
00:13:59,020 --> 00:13:59,820
what it's about man.

299
00:13:59,820 --> 00:14:03,420
It really is a man when I was watching the the segment with

300
00:14:03,420 --> 00:14:03,620
rock.

301
00:14:03,620 --> 00:14:05,720
I'm like I bet this is taking him or he should back and

302
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,220
choose like five or six years old.

303
00:14:07,220 --> 00:14:07,720
Oh, there it is.

304
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,220
She's she's living her.

305
00:14:09,220 --> 00:14:10,620
I don't even know if I was born yet.

306
00:14:10,820 --> 00:14:11,820
Don't know if I was even born.

307
00:14:11,820 --> 00:14:13,220
You live her childhood back man.

308
00:14:13,220 --> 00:14:14,520
I'm like, you know great stuff.

309
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,020
I don't even know if I was born yet.

310
00:14:16,620 --> 00:14:20,220
Oh man, eternal shout out to our guy.

311
00:14:20,620 --> 00:14:23,320
He sent us a question right on brand with this.

312
00:14:23,820 --> 00:14:25,720
He said I have a thought and I want y'all to discuss on the

313
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:31,020
pot do a double turn between Rock and Roman Cody verse the

314
00:14:31,020 --> 00:14:35,520
Rock at Summer Slam after the Rock loses big Roman return

315
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:35,920
pop.

316
00:14:37,020 --> 00:14:40,220
The only thing I can't figure out is he says in every promo

317
00:14:40,220 --> 00:14:42,220
he's going to make Seth's title disappear.

318
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:43,520
So we take that last part first.

319
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:50,620
I think that's Drew's title to get but I didn't don't we are

320
00:14:50,620 --> 00:14:55,520
we all in agreement that drew again assuming drew has resigned

321
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,420
are we all in agreement that Drew is going to win?

322
00:14:59,920 --> 00:15:01,120
Yeah, I think so.

323
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,020
I think we talked about it, but I think this is how you get

324
00:15:03,020 --> 00:15:03,420
there.

325
00:15:03,820 --> 00:15:07,720
Like I said, Drew made a comment about the Rock on Raw last

326
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:12,520
Monday, but for the Rock to say I'll make that title disappear.

327
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,620
Like I'm going to be the one not like hey Drew's going to

328
00:15:14,620 --> 00:15:15,020
beat you.

329
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:17,920
So I think there's be something but that leads up to the

330
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,320
chaos that I keep telling you about.

331
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,420
I think it's going to be from chaos from the moment of the

332
00:15:21,420 --> 00:15:25,920
tag team match on night one to the ending and when the thank

333
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,620
you for buying a pay-per-view WWE logo comes up, I think it's

334
00:15:28,620 --> 00:15:29,920
going to be chaos non-stop.

335
00:15:30,020 --> 00:15:31,020
So maybe that is it.

336
00:15:31,020 --> 00:15:31,420
School.

337
00:15:31,820 --> 00:15:33,420
Thank you for buying the pay-per-view.

338
00:15:36,220 --> 00:15:37,620
How about that Eshaan?

339
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,320
I wouldn't have remember that if I was only 15 years old.

340
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:41,420
You use it quite often.

341
00:15:41,420 --> 00:15:42,820
How would you even Google that though?

342
00:15:43,620 --> 00:15:44,520
You use it quite often.

343
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:45,720
I'm sure you figured out by now.

344
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:46,920
What?

345
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,220
So what's your guys thoughts about a pretty immediate

346
00:15:50,220 --> 00:15:50,720
double turn?

347
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,320
And I say immediate because in the eternal hit me up and

348
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,520
let me know if you mean something different.

349
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,620
But my assumption is we don't see Roman again until Summer

350
00:15:59,620 --> 00:16:00,020
Slam.

351
00:16:00,420 --> 00:16:05,420
So we see him drop the title at Mania either due to Rock's

352
00:16:05,420 --> 00:16:09,220
interference at backfires or whatever happens Rock does this

353
00:16:09,220 --> 00:16:09,420
thing.

354
00:16:09,420 --> 00:16:12,820
We found out now he does have a movie that he's taping or

355
00:16:12,820 --> 00:16:16,820
he's filming from May to August, right?

356
00:16:16,820 --> 00:16:18,620
First, I think no July.

357
00:16:18,620 --> 00:16:24,020
So if the plan is for him to work Summer Slam, he can make

358
00:16:24,020 --> 00:16:24,420
it work.

359
00:16:24,420 --> 00:16:28,920
But so Mia my assumption is Roman loses and Roman is not

360
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:35,320
even there until Summer Slam when his music hits after Roman

361
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,420
in or Rock and Cody or maybe he's a reason why Rock loses

362
00:16:39,420 --> 00:16:40,220
to Cody.

363
00:16:40,220 --> 00:16:42,320
So I guess the question here is one.

364
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,620
What do you guys think about it that a kind of immediate

365
00:16:44,620 --> 00:16:45,520
double turn?

366
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:49,420
Because then what does that do if we're trying to hold Rock

367
00:16:49,420 --> 00:16:52,820
Roman off until WrestleMania because now you got almost still

368
00:16:52,820 --> 00:16:55,020
like another half a year to build to that.

369
00:16:55,020 --> 00:16:57,420
So just take that one first.

370
00:16:57,420 --> 00:16:58,620
What's your guys thoughts on that?

371
00:16:58,620 --> 00:17:02,620
I don't know if we have enough time to tell that story.

372
00:17:02,620 --> 00:17:05,420
So to get that double turn for us to be back invested in Roman

373
00:17:05,420 --> 00:17:06,220
being a good guy.

374
00:17:06,220 --> 00:17:10,820
We have what two more Fridays left until Mania and then if

375
00:17:10,820 --> 00:17:13,820
this is all supposed to happen at Mania and then Roman goes

376
00:17:13,820 --> 00:17:17,920
in my a where is the storytelling going to be?

377
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:22,620
I mean Rock will have to do some really dirty stuff like at

378
00:17:22,620 --> 00:17:28,620
Mania night one and night two for us to get Roman to be a

379
00:17:28,620 --> 00:17:31,120
good guy and then for us to remember that over these next

380
00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:31,620
three months.

381
00:17:31,620 --> 00:17:33,220
That might be a bit challenging.

382
00:17:33,220 --> 00:17:34,020
I like it.

383
00:17:34,020 --> 00:17:35,420
I just don't know how we would get there.

384
00:17:35,420 --> 00:17:40,520
If these guys were full-time competitors, I think it would

385
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:41,220
be great, right?

386
00:17:41,220 --> 00:17:44,820
Just the thought of it the storyline possibilities are

387
00:17:44,820 --> 00:17:48,420
great, but it's just as I wrote each of said, you know, these

388
00:17:48,420 --> 00:17:51,520
guys we don't after Mania when when we're gonna see these

389
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,320
guys next be able to tell that story, right?

390
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,820
So we're going to get you know, we get some kind of double

391
00:17:56,820 --> 00:17:58,720
turn on a on a on a mania.

392
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,820
We might not get the continuation until the summertime.

393
00:18:01,820 --> 00:18:06,820
That's a long time to get I would say uninvested in a

394
00:18:06,820 --> 00:18:07,520
storyline right?

395
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,420
Because a lot of things happened between that time frame,

396
00:18:10,420 --> 00:18:12,820
right? You know, they're gonna have to run back with clips

397
00:18:12,820 --> 00:18:13,120
whatever.

398
00:18:13,120 --> 00:18:17,720
So whatever their next stage on the storyline with rock and

399
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,720
Roman, it had to be in a time frame to when they're gonna

400
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,220
have enough time like this to be able to actually tell it,

401
00:18:23,620 --> 00:18:28,620
you know, I don't know if you know April and then continuing

402
00:18:28,620 --> 00:18:31,320
to in March is going to do it.

403
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,620
Yeah, I mean, but that but not March 8 August, but that's

404
00:18:35,620 --> 00:18:37,720
if they're waiting to do the match at Mania.

405
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,420
They may end up doing something.

406
00:18:41,020 --> 00:18:42,920
I still don't think it's gonna be in Saudi, but they could

407
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,520
do something like on Netflix to start the Netflix.

408
00:18:48,120 --> 00:18:51,220
You know, WWE family conglomerate.

409
00:18:51,220 --> 00:18:55,320
Hey, our first show is well, okay, let's take that back.

410
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:57,720
So remember I said that everything it would be a disaster

411
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,720
or failure if it's not WrestleMania Rock versus Roman.

412
00:19:01,420 --> 00:19:04,320
This is probably that only asterisk that if this is like

413
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,720
Netflix deal and to start it like you say make this gram

414
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,720
poppin circumstances for it that this would be the only time

415
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,320
that I would want to see rock enrollment not at WrestleMania.

416
00:19:15,620 --> 00:19:19,220
Especially if you figure out coming off of Tyson and Jake

417
00:19:19,220 --> 00:19:23,820
Paul could be some business there to be done, but I'm here.

418
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,720
I guess the only thing that I am a little worried about is

419
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,720
that they don't rush this and there's more to it.

420
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,020
Like now that the Rock is calling himself the final boss.

421
00:19:32,020 --> 00:19:34,420
He's got to be the hill in this.

422
00:19:34,420 --> 00:19:37,720
So this is the perfect opportunity to turn Roman face.

423
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:42,220
We knew that any great Hill turn how you make your money

424
00:19:42,220 --> 00:19:45,520
on your Hill turn is through the face turn because typically

425
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,920
when you are a Hill when you turn face you are now an even

426
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,720
bigger face than you were if you flipped or just for your

427
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,320
first time and I think for Roman this is perfect.

428
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,820
Even if this is by happenstance because I think originally

429
00:19:58,820 --> 00:20:00,820
the plan was going to be Roman is the Hill and Rock is the

430
00:20:00,820 --> 00:20:05,520
face. You got a beautiful opportunity to keep Rock Hill

431
00:20:05,820 --> 00:20:09,220
because you can we can start seeing how this could make

432
00:20:09,220 --> 00:20:13,920
Roman a sympathetic baby face if he loses because of something

433
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,320
that the Rock did inadvertently or not and now the Rock tries

434
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,420
to take over the bloodline and we go through that entire thing.

435
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:23,720
The fans will be there for a face Roman.

436
00:20:24,020 --> 00:20:27,520
You know, I kind of feel like it'd be easier right this do

437
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:31,920
the time and like the schedule these guys it'll be easier

438
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:37,520
to tell the story of a Hill Roman versus a face Rock because

439
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,120
the Rock is already people already want to cheer him.

440
00:20:40,420 --> 00:20:42,020
These are already there for him.

441
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,620
It's easier to tell that story in a part-time manner without

442
00:20:45,620 --> 00:20:49,120
having to change roles and get people the foot because no

443
00:20:49,120 --> 00:20:50,820
Rock is still going to get the tears right?

444
00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:54,120
So now you're still kind of oh yeah, he's getting tears now

445
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,420
like right because this is a great time for Rock right now

446
00:20:57,420 --> 00:21:02,020
because what I think that I think he's doing a great job

447
00:21:02,020 --> 00:21:04,720
against Cody and Cody's one of most popular guys in the entire

448
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,120
world of wrestling and I think that code Rock is doing a great

449
00:21:08,120 --> 00:21:10,620
job of re like showing people who he is.

450
00:21:10,620 --> 00:21:12,220
I think a lot of people may have forgotten.

451
00:21:12,620 --> 00:21:14,920
I think right now I think it'd be easier for Rock just to

452
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,020
go back to being the sympathetic.

453
00:21:17,020 --> 00:21:17,720
Well, I'm decent.

454
00:21:18,020 --> 00:21:21,120
I think it's better for him to be face let Roman be the Hill

455
00:21:21,220 --> 00:21:25,620
and then you tell that story of Roman turning face after

456
00:21:25,620 --> 00:21:28,920
he's done with Rock business because he'll be around enough

457
00:21:29,120 --> 00:21:31,920
to where he can kind of tell that story in another storyline

458
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:32,720
with someone else.

459
00:21:32,820 --> 00:21:35,720
So if it's not punk though, like who else could it be like

460
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,820
Rock is the perfect because he is so popular and the reason

461
00:21:38,820 --> 00:21:41,820
why I kind of would wonder and then of course everybody

462
00:21:41,820 --> 00:21:44,520
watching listening let us know what you think there's still

463
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,320
a lot of ones up when Roman throws the ones up, you know,

464
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,520
into your point about Cody like yeah, Cody got some booze

465
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,120
during the Rock concert.

466
00:21:52,120 --> 00:21:55,320
Cody comes out for the dark match and he gets one of the

467
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:56,020
biggest pops.

468
00:21:56,620 --> 00:21:57,220
Night.

469
00:21:57,620 --> 00:21:57,820
Yeah.

470
00:21:57,820 --> 00:22:01,220
So like even even the face to face a week ago when he slapped

471
00:22:01,220 --> 00:22:03,220
Rock nobody was booing Cody.

472
00:22:03,220 --> 00:22:06,820
So yeah, it's of course in the in the vacuum of the Rock is

473
00:22:06,820 --> 00:22:09,120
out there by himself cutting a promo being entertaining.

474
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,920
Yeah, the people are going to boo Seth and go and share Cody.

475
00:22:12,220 --> 00:22:14,120
Yeah, I don't think it's going to happen though.

476
00:22:14,120 --> 00:22:17,620
If they were in the ring face to face one-on-one and you

477
00:22:17,620 --> 00:22:21,020
know, and this actually got my my hamster on my will in

478
00:22:21,020 --> 00:22:21,620
my brain.

479
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:23,520
It's turning and spinning.

480
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:28,820
Let's lead with Rock and Roman at SummerSlam.

481
00:22:28,820 --> 00:22:29,320
I don't know though.

482
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:29,920
I don't want it.

483
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:31,820
Let's go there with it.

484
00:22:33,020 --> 00:22:35,020
Roman could come back before August.

485
00:22:35,020 --> 00:22:35,620
He can come back.

486
00:22:35,620 --> 00:22:37,420
Let's say June start building for it.

487
00:22:38,220 --> 00:22:42,020
We know Rock is gone but Rock can still do videos.

488
00:22:42,020 --> 00:22:46,420
He could still do promos and as him being on the board or

489
00:22:46,420 --> 00:22:48,620
if he went to the story day, he's a movie star and he's on

490
00:22:48,820 --> 00:22:50,020
on set.

491
00:22:50,020 --> 00:22:54,220
He can still put things like Roman has to come in because

492
00:22:54,220 --> 00:22:55,020
he is a tribal chief.

493
00:22:55,020 --> 00:22:57,520
He has to fight blah blah blah and then you can send the

494
00:22:57,820 --> 00:23:00,720
the Tomatanga brothers are they free agents or something?

495
00:23:00,820 --> 00:23:04,920
Maybe Rock can still be a heel and a mastermind not there

496
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,920
physically but have his president's presence be known

497
00:23:09,420 --> 00:23:10,320
throughout this time.

498
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,920
So then come August I can now see Roman being that baby

499
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:15,420
face.

500
00:23:15,420 --> 00:23:19,420
I can see that working.

501
00:23:19,420 --> 00:23:21,620
Man Roman pops me.

502
00:23:21,620 --> 00:23:24,120
What do we how many Roman matches did we get last year?

503
00:23:24,120 --> 00:23:28,120
Do I know we got the the Saudi maybe we got the Saudi we

504
00:23:28,120 --> 00:23:29,020
got SummerSlam.

505
00:23:29,020 --> 00:23:33,120
We got mania right and he only comes in.

506
00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:35,220
He doesn't promote those matches.

507
00:23:35,220 --> 00:23:37,220
I mean, but he doesn't actually do storylines.

508
00:23:37,220 --> 00:23:41,820
He maybe maybe twice but leading up until the POE is typically

509
00:23:41,820 --> 00:23:46,620
the same deal.

510
00:23:46,620 --> 00:23:47,220
Right.

511
00:23:47,220 --> 00:23:49,720
I like I know I know there's some thoughts about like,

512
00:23:49,820 --> 00:23:52,220
oh maybe once he drops the title, he'll work more dates.

513
00:23:52,220 --> 00:23:53,420
No his deal is this deal.

514
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:53,720
Now.

515
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,020
Yeah, they can add more dates on kind of like the same

516
00:23:56,020 --> 00:23:56,520
thing with Brock.

517
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,520
He has going to cost money to add them on but I don't I

518
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,320
don't think his deal is backloaded for people who watch

519
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,520
you know sports and understand contracts where it's like,

520
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,620
hey, we'll give you, you know, 40 mil to start off with

521
00:24:08,620 --> 00:24:10,120
but then it balloons to 80 million.

522
00:24:10,120 --> 00:24:11,720
You laugh. I don't think this is a situation where it's like,

523
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,620
hey only work five matches in, you know, 20 to 20 23 so

524
00:24:15,620 --> 00:24:17,920
then you can work 25 matches in 2024.

525
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,020
I don't think that's the deal that we're getting.

526
00:24:21,020 --> 00:24:23,920
I mean, we're going to turn we're going to turn a heel

527
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,120
Roman who only should be seen three times every three

528
00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:30,420
months and against a part-time.

529
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,320
You know, they'll stranger things can happen, right?

530
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,220
But I was like, it'll be easier to tell the natural story

531
00:24:36,220 --> 00:24:39,920
as it is and then you can have Roman because it'll be easier

532
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,220
right because so for instance, let's say we got a hill stuff

533
00:24:43,220 --> 00:24:45,020
coming in or something like that and he has a whole he

534
00:24:45,020 --> 00:24:46,820
creates a whole new faction or something like that.

535
00:24:46,820 --> 00:24:52,020
Whatever, right is easy for them to turn on no Roman somehow

536
00:24:52,020 --> 00:24:54,820
and beat him down leave him laying right like beat him

537
00:24:54,820 --> 00:24:58,420
down leave him bloody right game sympathetic and he's gone

538
00:24:58,420 --> 00:24:59,320
for another couple months.

539
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:00,720
Good ill fit the storyline, right?

540
00:25:01,020 --> 00:25:02,920
He comes back as the conquering hero.

541
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,920
It's it'll be much easier for him to do this and get some

542
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,020
established full-time heel that's there more often maybe

543
00:25:10,020 --> 00:25:10,920
that's punk right?

544
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,620
I'm not sure what punch deal is but it seems like he's

545
00:25:13,620 --> 00:25:16,020
on some type of a part-time schedule doesn't help his body

546
00:25:16,020 --> 00:25:16,420
either.

547
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:18,920
He's due back this week, right?

548
00:25:19,120 --> 00:25:20,620
The 25th or 20th.

549
00:25:20,620 --> 00:25:20,920
Okay.

550
00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:24,520
Yeah, you see that II they they scaled it down to the same

551
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:24,820
stage.

552
00:25:24,820 --> 00:25:26,020
They use that Survivor Series.

553
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:30,020
So no big they put those tickles on sale and they sold

554
00:25:30,020 --> 00:25:31,320
like the majority of them in one day.

555
00:25:32,020 --> 00:25:34,520
We were already I think I like over like 12,000 seats sold

556
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,220
and they put them up and sold almost thousand in one day.

557
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,620
It's like just the business is incredibly.

558
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:41,020
So then okay, so they're coming.

559
00:25:41,020 --> 00:25:43,520
He's going to be coming through the tunnel the people or the

560
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,120
the non Titan Tron stage is what you're saying.

561
00:25:46,120 --> 00:25:46,420
Okay.

562
00:25:46,420 --> 00:25:52,120
Yeah, and then they're using the same one for mania the raw

563
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:57,120
and Smackdown and then they're using the same one for money

564
00:25:57,120 --> 00:25:57,620
in the bank.

565
00:25:58,420 --> 00:26:02,420
So it's like the business is so hot for WWE.

566
00:26:02,420 --> 00:26:05,520
Yeah, they aren't even using their staging because they can

567
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:06,320
sell so many tickets.

568
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,120
Think about that.

569
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:09,220
Unreal man.

570
00:26:09,220 --> 00:26:10,320
I don't like that though.

571
00:26:10,620 --> 00:26:13,720
I'm going to record and say that I watched WWE a lot for

572
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:14,520
their production.

573
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,020
So to me granted sitting at home, I'm still going to get

574
00:26:18,020 --> 00:26:20,920
the same production watching it on TV, but being there.

575
00:26:21,020 --> 00:26:21,820
I don't like that.

576
00:26:21,820 --> 00:26:23,420
I want my fun though.

577
00:26:24,120 --> 00:26:25,920
I didn't have a problem with the stadium ones is the ones

578
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,920
I have the issue with that's not me with stadiums and yeah,

579
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:29,820
like the Survivor Series.

580
00:26:29,820 --> 00:26:33,120
I didn't either because I couldn't see I'm four foot 11.

581
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:34,020
I can't see.

582
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:36,920
It gets only perfect only people I saw.

583
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,820
I think I saw maybe you don't you get your grow a little bit

584
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:45,820
and they're right a couple quick hits for Smackdown AJ Styles

585
00:26:45,820 --> 00:26:46,920
verse LA night.

586
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,020
I asked on X if you're not following us follow us that's

587
00:26:50,020 --> 00:26:54,820
FNW, you know thoughts and the majority people said hey,

588
00:26:54,820 --> 00:26:55,620
they're here for it.

589
00:26:55,820 --> 00:26:57,720
They know it's gonna be a great match AJ's and probably be

590
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,720
give LA night, you know best match of his career sounds

591
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:01,020
good.

592
00:27:01,020 --> 00:27:03,820
Hey, if it's not going to be for a title, why not AJ?

593
00:27:05,420 --> 00:27:08,320
But a couple people are with me, which is match does nothing

594
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:08,720
for me.

595
00:27:09,220 --> 00:27:13,120
Wow does nothing but is it because maybe how you feel toward

596
00:27:13,120 --> 00:27:13,920
one or both?

597
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:21,820
It feels like for me personally not for the fans because he's

598
00:27:21,820 --> 00:27:23,120
still over it was one of those.

599
00:27:23,120 --> 00:27:25,220
All right, it's time to shit to go off the pot with LA night.

600
00:27:25,220 --> 00:27:28,420
I'm not saying just throw him in the IC title match a world

601
00:27:28,420 --> 00:27:29,120
title match.

602
00:27:29,120 --> 00:27:33,220
You know the Logan Paul's belt is gonna be his belt until

603
00:27:33,220 --> 00:27:33,920
SummerSlam.

604
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,920
It's in his hometown, but it's getting to that where it's

605
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,920
like if you don't at least put him in a major storyline.

606
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,420
I'm kind of like, all right, man, like I guess let me know

607
00:27:44,420 --> 00:27:47,220
when it's time to pick you back up because I felt about

608
00:27:47,220 --> 00:27:48,020
him last year.

609
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,820
Yes, it's not a missed opportunity or wasted opportunity

610
00:27:51,820 --> 00:27:54,120
because you can't see somebody at the top of the car that

611
00:27:54,120 --> 00:27:57,120
you would say hey flip them out with LA night, but that's

612
00:27:57,120 --> 00:28:00,620
just how I'm he's kind of stagnant to me currently as is

613
00:28:01,020 --> 00:28:03,820
and we know LA nights on a mean we know him in AJ's and

614
00:28:03,820 --> 00:28:07,620
put on a great match, but I haven't really been that high

615
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:09,020
on AJ either.

616
00:28:09,020 --> 00:28:11,220
He's been better since he's come back and he looks much

617
00:28:11,220 --> 00:28:11,620
better.

618
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,420
Yeah, but it just I mean doesn't do me anything for me.

619
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:16,320
Which side of the fence are you guys on?

620
00:28:17,020 --> 00:28:17,920
I'm there for it.

621
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:22,120
I'm all the way there for there is no doubt that LA night

622
00:28:22,120 --> 00:28:24,920
isn't as big as we probably all wanted him to be at some

623
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:29,420
point. We know AJ cells kind of hasn't either we all agree

624
00:28:29,420 --> 00:28:32,920
that since he's come back he's been better but every time

625
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:34,320
I see kind of them together.

626
00:28:34,420 --> 00:28:37,320
I do get a certain feeling inside that I want to see them

627
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,420
go the Cherish I just the intensity.

628
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,820
Just as I guess his name is Daddy, right?

629
00:28:43,820 --> 00:28:44,620
I just heard that.

630
00:28:44,620 --> 00:28:51,120
The intensity that I saw that it Cherish I mean I felt it.

631
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,220
So for me I am there for it.

632
00:28:53,620 --> 00:28:54,120
Okay.

633
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:54,920
Oh, he just took off.

634
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:56,320
The kids got to him.

635
00:28:58,420 --> 00:29:00,120
I would think that he probably would say no.

636
00:29:00,220 --> 00:29:02,520
I think he probably I probably think he would say I don't

637
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,020
give a crap about it, but it'll be I'm good with it.

638
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:06,520
I'm good with the match.

639
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:07,520
Yeah, I'm good with it.

640
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,020
Like I know what it is.

641
00:29:09,020 --> 00:29:09,920
I mean LA night.

642
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:10,920
I'm still for LA night.

643
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:12,120
I still think he's good with it.

644
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,720
Is I mean LA night, I'm still for LA night.

645
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:15,320
I still think he's nice.

646
00:29:15,820 --> 00:29:19,220
It's just that there's only so many top heels.

647
00:29:19,220 --> 00:29:20,220
They have right now.

648
00:29:20,220 --> 00:29:23,420
I mean when he was face to face with Drew, I think he held

649
00:29:23,420 --> 00:29:25,320
his own in that Drew segment.

650
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,820
It made me want to see that in a few with them in the near

651
00:29:28,820 --> 00:29:29,220
future.

652
00:29:29,220 --> 00:29:32,520
I hope we get that AJ Styles is AJ Styles.

653
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:33,820
I think there's a place for AJ Styles.

654
00:29:33,820 --> 00:29:38,320
I think he's like that that if you want to say rocks the

655
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,220
final boss, I think he's like that mid-card boss.

656
00:29:40,220 --> 00:29:43,020
He's that guy that gets the next person ready going to give

657
00:29:43,020 --> 00:29:43,920
him a good match.

658
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:48,320
He makes the majority of the audience of their core audience

659
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,020
enjoys AJ Styles still still gets a nice reaction from the

660
00:29:51,020 --> 00:29:51,520
crowd.

661
00:29:52,020 --> 00:29:52,720
I think it's fine.

662
00:29:54,220 --> 00:29:56,820
Okay, what else you guys got from a smackdown?

663
00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,120
You got any quick hits?

664
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:03,120
Yeah, two things one that moonsaw EO did off the top

665
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,120
rope onto Bailey's face.

666
00:30:06,420 --> 00:30:07,420
Haven't heard anything.

667
00:30:07,420 --> 00:30:11,120
She didn't she didn't react like it was major damage, but

668
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:15,020
that could have been nasty three weeks before mania that

669
00:30:15,020 --> 00:30:18,420
that that look painful that absolutely painful and then

670
00:30:18,420 --> 00:30:19,720
outside of that.

671
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:25,720
I was able to see the Jimmy responding and accepting Jays

672
00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,220
challenge and I like that.

673
00:30:28,220 --> 00:30:31,520
Yeah, I mean again, I'm used to even though Jimmy is a bad

674
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:31,820
guy.

675
00:30:31,820 --> 00:30:34,220
He's a you we still don't really get to see like that bad

676
00:30:34,220 --> 00:30:35,820
and that fire in him.

677
00:30:35,820 --> 00:30:37,820
It ain't time for no Jokey Jokey.

678
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,320
Yeah, it's time to get down.

679
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,120
But he ended with Yeet like I would like to be like I was

680
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,020
like this is I like this Jimmy.

681
00:30:45,020 --> 00:30:46,020
He like you little brother.

682
00:30:46,020 --> 00:30:48,420
Listen you little brother and I told you I've always raised

683
00:30:48,420 --> 00:30:49,020
you like dude.

684
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,420
What's going on in that household man leave it to him.

685
00:30:53,420 --> 00:30:55,820
They're not even brothers believe it to like like a black

686
00:30:55,820 --> 00:30:58,720
brother believe it to a brother to say I raised you and I'm

687
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:00,320
only seven months older to you.

688
00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,820
He thinks he's my grandfather.

689
00:31:04,820 --> 00:31:07,220
We only a few years apart.

690
00:31:07,220 --> 00:31:10,720
But I like I like seeing that from Jimmy.

691
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,820
Yep.

692
00:31:12,820 --> 00:31:16,520
I forgot to ask you guys last week just quick thoughts on

693
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,520
the prime sponsorship deal.

694
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:22,820
Logan came out there and said that hey going forward and

695
00:31:22,820 --> 00:31:26,620
PL ease the prime bottle logos and be in the middle of the

696
00:31:26,620 --> 00:31:27,120
wrestling ring.

697
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:31,220
We knew Vince hated logos didn't he detested it around

698
00:31:31,220 --> 00:31:34,120
the ring not even on the ring, but we've seen it in WCW.

699
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:35,320
We've seen in AEW.

700
00:31:36,020 --> 00:31:39,120
I think for WWE only fans.

701
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:40,520
It may be a little jarring at first.

702
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,220
I do think it is going to just blend in.

703
00:31:43,420 --> 00:31:45,820
But what's your guys thoughts about having that logo smack

704
00:31:45,820 --> 00:31:47,520
dab in the middle of the ring?

705
00:31:48,220 --> 00:31:50,920
Vince is rolling over in his grave rolling over in his grave.

706
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:56,420
I think you said that wrestling is pop culture.

707
00:31:56,420 --> 00:31:59,220
I think what made it kind of stagnant before was that it

708
00:31:59,220 --> 00:32:00,920
didn't evolve with pop culture.

709
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:05,920
Yes, your your authentic die-hard, especially WWE fans.

710
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,720
They will probably say why are we doing that?

711
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,620
You're you're the integrity of the business of the company.

712
00:32:11,620 --> 00:32:12,820
Why are you doing this?

713
00:32:12,820 --> 00:32:14,520
But you got to keep up.

714
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,120
I'm okay with it.

715
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,520
It is probably going to be weird seeing it for a few weeks

716
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,020
and eventually it would just fall into like background noise

717
00:32:22,020 --> 00:32:22,320
to me.

718
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:23,920
So I'm cool with it.

719
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,420
Hey, look and get that money.

720
00:32:26,420 --> 00:32:26,920
Whatever.

721
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:28,820
Maybe they can give me some back.

722
00:32:28,820 --> 00:32:30,620
You know, I'm saying maybe you can lower some of these ticket

723
00:32:30,620 --> 00:32:32,520
prices lower some of these things.

724
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,120
I got to pay for it because I they get him so many different

725
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:35,920
ways, right?

726
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:39,120
Like cuz they prime had Logan Paul and prime had to spend

727
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:39,520
some money.

728
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,220
They had to put some coins on the table for them to do that.

729
00:32:42,220 --> 00:32:43,220
Right.

730
00:32:43,220 --> 00:32:45,420
So I was like damn these dudes is just rolling.

731
00:32:45,420 --> 00:32:48,120
It's like Scrooge McDuck in all day long over there right now,

732
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:48,420
man.

733
00:32:48,420 --> 00:32:51,720
Hey, let's let's let's inflate this deflate some of these

734
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:52,220
prices.

735
00:32:52,220 --> 00:32:52,920
God damn it.

736
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:53,620
You know Sam.

737
00:32:53,620 --> 00:32:57,320
So that way when Big Daddy got to come up in here this summer,

738
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,120
I ain't paying 151 50.

739
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,620
I'm paying, you know, a W prices give me a $49 89.

740
00:33:02,620 --> 00:33:06,520
No, you probably get 89 at the lowest announced a return.

741
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:11,420
So when Georgia yet they have not but historically to come

742
00:33:11,420 --> 00:33:14,220
in around they come around July, which is right around my

743
00:33:14,220 --> 00:33:15,320
son's birthday usually.

744
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,720
So we'll see cool cool cool cool.

745
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:22,420
Last thing WWE related before I got a women's question for

746
00:33:22,420 --> 00:33:23,520
you Rhodesia thoughts.

747
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,620
Some prayers to Angelo Dawkins.

748
00:33:25,620 --> 00:33:29,220
He shared on Friday his mother passed away.

749
00:33:29,620 --> 00:33:33,320
So thoughts and prayers, of course, you know, we know how

750
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,120
lost is just recently.

751
00:33:35,420 --> 00:33:37,020
That's never an easy thing.

752
00:33:37,020 --> 00:33:38,020
So hopefully he's good.

753
00:33:38,020 --> 00:33:38,820
His family's good.

754
00:33:38,820 --> 00:33:40,620
You we know it's part of life.

755
00:33:40,620 --> 00:33:44,220
But damn whenever you lose people close to you, it can

756
00:33:44,220 --> 00:33:44,620
sting.

757
00:33:44,620 --> 00:33:46,120
So hopefully he's doing well.

758
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:48,320
So we're easy.

759
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,420
I said last week and of course you can chime in too, but but

760
00:33:51,420 --> 00:33:54,520
I want Rudy's to kind of speak on it from a woman's perspective.

761
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:59,620
I think it's a little bit of fake outrage to be completely

762
00:33:59,620 --> 00:34:00,420
transparent.

763
00:34:00,820 --> 00:34:03,420
I also think it's a little bit of I have a fan base and I

764
00:34:03,420 --> 00:34:07,020
need to make sure that they know I am advocate for women's

765
00:34:07,020 --> 00:34:07,720
wrestling.

766
00:34:08,820 --> 00:34:11,920
But everybody knows we love women's wrestling as possible.

767
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,020
I don't have to worry about that.

768
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:18,920
But there's there's a lot of there's some people who are up

769
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:25,220
in arms allegedly because one of the women's matches are not

770
00:34:25,220 --> 00:34:30,020
main eventing either night one or night two of WrestleMania

771
00:34:30,020 --> 00:34:30,920
and by the two women's matches.

772
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:31,920
I'm talking about the championship matches.

773
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,620
I'm talking Becky and Rhea and I'm talking Bailey and EO

774
00:34:36,620 --> 00:34:36,820
now.

775
00:34:36,820 --> 00:34:41,220
I'm seeing a lot of the story for both dictates one of them

776
00:34:41,220 --> 00:34:42,020
should main event.

777
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:44,120
But here's the kicker for me.

778
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:45,420
I don't have a problem with that.

779
00:34:45,420 --> 00:34:49,720
But I do have a problem with is there was their resolution

780
00:34:49,720 --> 00:34:55,120
for night one is to put rock and Roman verse Seth and Cody

781
00:34:55,120 --> 00:35:00,520
first to kick the show off and then have one of those said

782
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,620
women's matches as the main event.

783
00:35:04,620 --> 00:35:08,320
What is your thoughts from a woman and a woman's perspective

784
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:12,720
your thoughts about the women not main eventing but in order

785
00:35:12,720 --> 00:35:16,920
for them to main event would you put that tag match as the

786
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:18,120
opener on WrestleMania night one?

787
00:35:18,820 --> 00:35:21,020
I'm not even going to answer that full question.

788
00:35:21,020 --> 00:35:23,620
I'm going to just address the whole like I can but the point

789
00:35:23,620 --> 00:35:27,720
of I want to get across is the women main eventing WrestleMania.

790
00:35:29,020 --> 00:35:31,320
You can't just say just point-blank their writer they're

791
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,220
wrong because I know that there is writers and you have to

792
00:35:34,220 --> 00:35:39,120
tell this story over time and you just cannot tell me that

793
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:43,720
Rhea Becky Bailey and Neo is more entertaining than anything

794
00:35:43,720 --> 00:35:44,720
to do with the rock.

795
00:35:44,820 --> 00:35:46,720
You just can't to me.

796
00:35:47,220 --> 00:35:49,720
So again, we could take the whole question of them put rock

797
00:35:49,720 --> 00:35:51,820
and the tag match first.

798
00:35:51,820 --> 00:35:56,320
We know that kind of the new plot or the new show run is

799
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,920
you put your hot one of your hottest matches first and then

800
00:35:59,920 --> 00:36:01,920
you can main event with your your next hottest one.

801
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,920
So I get that part there but it's the rock.

802
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,720
Now again, could we I can come on here and argue and say that

803
00:36:09,720 --> 00:36:11,920
over this last two three months.

804
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,320
We should have built it to where I feel like I have to see

805
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:16,620
Becky and Rhea but I don't feel that way.

806
00:36:16,620 --> 00:36:19,920
I want to see the rock on my TV screen because I'm not going

807
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,020
to be there live unless miracles happen.

808
00:36:22,020 --> 00:36:25,020
I want to see rock ended on both nights.

809
00:36:25,020 --> 00:36:31,120
So for me, I do feel like a lot of times we want to progress

810
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:35,320
as whatever box that we're in and that's okay and we should

811
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,620
advocate and we should be and we should champion it.

812
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,420
But I said this probably on the first 10 or 15 episodes of

813
00:36:41,420 --> 00:36:42,020
this show.

814
00:36:43,020 --> 00:36:45,420
I'm going to hold people to the same standards regardless

815
00:36:45,420 --> 00:36:50,220
on if it's male or female and to me I do not think for me

816
00:36:50,220 --> 00:36:53,120
that I will be happy or think that is more entertaining to

817
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:54,020
see again.

818
00:36:54,020 --> 00:36:56,920
I'm using Rhea and Becky because they're like the biggest

819
00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,820
like hottest women are already now to me personally.

820
00:36:59,820 --> 00:37:04,820
I like EO and Bailey more but I think as the the mass majority

821
00:37:04,820 --> 00:37:07,420
I think Rio in Rio Rhea.

822
00:37:07,720 --> 00:37:10,420
I think we may be that may be about 50-50 if you were to do

823
00:37:10,420 --> 00:37:11,120
a legit.

824
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,220
Yeah, because storyline that story's been going on for two

825
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:15,720
right years storyline.

826
00:37:15,720 --> 00:37:18,220
I like damage control and that is actually when I am looking

827
00:37:18,220 --> 00:37:20,720
more forward to but I'm just looking at the pops that Rhea

828
00:37:20,720 --> 00:37:23,920
and Becky are getting and I just feel like I can see why

829
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:27,420
some people will feel that way and some people can truly feel

830
00:37:27,420 --> 00:37:29,420
that way not because they trying to put over women but

831
00:37:29,420 --> 00:37:31,220
because they truly feel that way because they're big fans

832
00:37:31,220 --> 00:37:32,820
of them just like how I'm saying right now.

833
00:37:32,820 --> 00:37:35,520
I'm a big fan of the Rock. I want that show to go off and

834
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:35,920
I see that.

835
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:37,720
Thank you for purchasing this pay-per-view logo.

836
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:41,020
I want to see Rock on there at the end of both.

837
00:37:41,620 --> 00:37:45,920
So to me if you take Rock out of it, I can absolutely say

838
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:47,820
why don't we have a woman match on there, but then I can

839
00:37:47,820 --> 00:37:49,820
go on and just say a whole lot of different things of why

840
00:37:50,020 --> 00:37:51,720
we don't have even more women matches.

841
00:37:51,820 --> 00:37:54,320
I mean I can go down that road but as far as just to address

842
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,120
that one question, how do I feel about a woman match not

843
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:58,820
main eventing night one or night two?

844
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:02,520
It's almost like I'm sorry with the most respect possible

845
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,820
shut up is the Rock.

846
00:38:07,420 --> 00:38:09,820
I mean, I wouldn't even go that far with it because that's

847
00:38:09,820 --> 00:38:12,420
that's y'all crazy tagline for everything rock related.

848
00:38:13,820 --> 00:38:19,620
But yeah, yeah, I should hit the soundboard on a booth for

849
00:38:19,620 --> 00:38:20,020
that one.

850
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:23,720
Oh, yeah.

851
00:38:23,820 --> 00:38:29,220
Oh, yeah, but I think the women supporters of wrestling are

852
00:38:29,220 --> 00:38:30,220
very very vocal.

853
00:38:30,220 --> 00:38:32,620
You should see like on the wrestling game front like man

854
00:38:32,620 --> 00:38:35,620
they like if you don't get like we don't we need more ways

855
00:38:35,620 --> 00:38:36,920
more ways is crazy.

856
00:38:37,220 --> 00:38:41,220
Like how to get these wigs like how that term is just thrown

857
00:38:41,220 --> 00:38:41,720
out there man.

858
00:38:41,720 --> 00:38:44,720
They are super loud advocates of women wrestling.

859
00:38:44,720 --> 00:38:45,320
I get it.

860
00:38:46,820 --> 00:38:48,620
And I think if it's another P you can probably get away

861
00:38:48,620 --> 00:38:49,120
with that.

862
00:38:49,220 --> 00:38:53,020
But as you said with the Rock and it's such a huge match

863
00:38:53,020 --> 00:38:55,920
if you put all these matches just put them like on the

864
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,820
board and you list them like the most important or from the

865
00:38:59,820 --> 00:39:00,920
top to bottom.

866
00:39:01,620 --> 00:39:03,620
I think though the one of the women matches would be there

867
00:39:03,620 --> 00:39:07,320
just because we got a we got to put a women's match there not

868
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:12,120
because it's a bigger match with bigger personalities and

869
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:12,420
more.

870
00:39:12,420 --> 00:39:13,120
I agree.

871
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:13,920
I agree.

872
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:14,120
Right.

873
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:15,420
I think we'll be doing it.

874
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:18,320
I don't think that does them justice right there's any there

875
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:22,620
have been times when you know where for me there at you know

876
00:39:22,620 --> 00:39:28,520
with the Sasha and Mercedes or Sasha Banks and Bianca Baylor

877
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,720
match that was the importance and what that that match was

878
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:36,420
that was there but man I might have a hard time with that

879
00:39:36,420 --> 00:39:42,120
match against the rock over our roll over the storyline that

880
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:43,120
we have right again.

881
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:44,020
That's the key thing.

882
00:39:44,020 --> 00:39:47,820
It's not just the matchups and that's what it kind of would

883
00:39:47,820 --> 00:39:50,520
have been with Rock and Roman because we didn't necessarily

884
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:54,020
have the story to support it, but there's so much story and

885
00:39:54,020 --> 00:39:57,520
character now with these four men and something that stake

886
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:01,320
from night one tonight to to where you got to put that at

887
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,820
the end that has to be the headliner.

888
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,820
That's what people ultimately want to see because that has

889
00:40:06,820 --> 00:40:09,420
the greatest story the most intrigue right now at wrestling.

890
00:40:10,020 --> 00:40:12,720
So I don't think you do the women of the service by putting

891
00:40:12,720 --> 00:40:15,020
them in a position to wear like hey, we're gonna put them

892
00:40:15,020 --> 00:40:18,220
here because we need to have a woman, right?

893
00:40:18,220 --> 00:40:21,120
Like I don't think any of us want to do that.

894
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,020
I think as a as a as a black man.

895
00:40:23,020 --> 00:40:24,620
I don't like hey we got to put him here.

896
00:40:24,620 --> 00:40:26,620
We need to have a black person in this position.

897
00:40:26,620 --> 00:40:29,320
I want to find it's earned now.

898
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,520
There are occasions as I said with the women a couple years

899
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,020
ago to where that meant something but right now.

900
00:40:36,820 --> 00:40:38,020
You got to have the rocket.

901
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,420
Well, not even just the rock think about it.

902
00:40:40,420 --> 00:40:45,820
Cody Rhodes Roman Reigns Seth Rollins and oh, yeah, the rock

903
00:40:45,820 --> 00:40:47,720
but now let me also say that on first.

904
00:40:47,820 --> 00:40:48,920
Good luck to that crowd.

905
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:50,320
Oh, yeah, they're done to have hours.

906
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,420
Like, okay, who's topping that from an emotional investment

907
00:40:53,420 --> 00:40:55,020
perspective who's topping that?

908
00:40:55,020 --> 00:40:58,120
No, no one not the women either.

909
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:03,620
So now that my full statement is said there as far as that.

910
00:41:03,620 --> 00:41:07,420
I can't agree that you do have rock two nights.

911
00:41:07,420 --> 00:41:08,920
Why do we have to have rock?

912
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:10,920
You know, you keep saying that huh?

913
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:12,620
Rock is not on the car for two nights.

914
00:41:12,620 --> 00:41:14,020
He's only on the car for night one.

915
00:41:14,020 --> 00:41:14,620
Well, okay.

916
00:41:14,620 --> 00:41:14,820
Sorry.

917
00:41:14,820 --> 00:41:16,320
He's going to be okay Roman.

918
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:18,620
Let's go Roman and bloodline is on two nights.

919
00:41:18,620 --> 00:41:19,420
Let's go bloodline.

920
00:41:19,420 --> 00:41:20,720
I misspoke.

921
00:41:21,020 --> 00:41:24,520
So yes, why is bloodline on both nights, but we saw this last

922
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:29,120
year. We saw this with the tag match how it ended last year.

923
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:35,320
So again, I do feel like okay, you do have the bloodline

924
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:35,720
twice.

925
00:41:35,720 --> 00:41:38,420
You don't have to have the bloodline in it both nights.

926
00:41:38,420 --> 00:41:41,520
I can I can see why somebody would say that but again, it

927
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:45,320
just goes back to when people buy this pay-per-view there.

928
00:41:45,620 --> 00:41:46,620
They're buying it.

929
00:41:46,620 --> 00:41:49,920
The majority of people are buying it because of the rock

930
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:50,920
and his influence.

931
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:52,220
That's the fact.

932
00:41:52,220 --> 00:41:55,220
No, no majority majority is this finish the story.

933
00:41:55,220 --> 00:41:56,420
We're in the story.

934
00:41:56,420 --> 00:41:56,920
I'm sorry.

935
00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:58,720
Okay, I get all attached to that.

936
00:41:58,720 --> 00:41:59,920
That's what I'm saying.

937
00:41:59,920 --> 00:42:00,820
That's the point that I'm getting.

938
00:42:00,820 --> 00:42:03,820
Yeah, and what happens in that match is going to bleed over

939
00:42:03,820 --> 00:42:07,120
to if he like right because like either way.

940
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:09,320
Yeah, it bleeds over to the main event.

941
00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,420
It's still a question mark if he finished his story, right?

942
00:42:12,420 --> 00:42:15,320
And like the way happens at the end of that match.

943
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,020
We kind of dictate what kind of story is going to be finished

944
00:42:18,020 --> 00:42:18,420
next night.

945
00:42:18,420 --> 00:42:20,120
I mean, I feel like it's a huge match.

946
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:21,320
Yeah, I get it.

947
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:22,720
This is not the time for it.

948
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,620
Last thing I'll say on that then now we have the opportunity

949
00:42:26,620 --> 00:42:29,420
to make sure that we are building women throughout the

950
00:42:29,420 --> 00:42:32,820
year so that now if we are not meaning Vinny since WrestleMania

951
00:42:32,820 --> 00:42:33,920
will probably be two nights forever.

952
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,920
Now if they're not main event in one of those nights now, we

953
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,120
have a problem because they do not know.

954
00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:42,220
I'm not going to use the word deserve but they should be main

955
00:42:42,220 --> 00:42:46,820
event it or or you could say hey, let's make a concerted

956
00:42:46,820 --> 00:42:48,120
effort going forward.

957
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:56,320
To night one is the winner of one Royal Rumble match in that

958
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,720
champion and night two is the winner of the other Royal Rumble

959
00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:04,020
winner in that champion, whichever storyline gets hotter.

960
00:43:04,020 --> 00:43:06,020
I like that finish night to one.

961
00:43:06,020 --> 00:43:09,020
I love that you can make that concerted effort to do that.

962
00:43:09,020 --> 00:43:10,820
I love that this year just ain't the year.

963
00:43:10,820 --> 00:43:11,320
Yep.

964
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,920
And if they wait to rock and Roman next year with no title

965
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:18,020
line, maybe 26, how about we main event?

966
00:43:18,020 --> 00:43:20,920
In both nights the women main event in both nights.

967
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:27,420
You brought up Mercedes the last pod you were not too

968
00:43:27,420 --> 00:43:29,320
intrigued on the actual Dynamite show.

969
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,320
You were excited to watch Mercedes.

970
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,020
I'm going to have you kind of talk us through your thoughts

971
00:43:34,020 --> 00:43:37,720
about because we can stick with Mercedes first if you want

972
00:43:37,720 --> 00:43:39,220
to talk about the whole show feel free.

973
00:43:41,220 --> 00:43:42,320
Oh, yeah, definitely.

974
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:49,320
We all saw Mercedes Monet debut on AEW television big business

975
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,320
and she did big business, right?

976
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,620
We had almost 10,000 people at that arena.

977
00:43:54,620 --> 00:43:56,720
So you can't say she's not a draw, right?

978
00:43:56,720 --> 00:44:00,220
She drew 10,000 people at that arena.

979
00:44:00,220 --> 00:44:03,220
She also in her first segment.

980
00:44:03,220 --> 00:44:04,720
She did a million views, right?

981
00:44:04,720 --> 00:44:09,620
Now that's big that she that many people.

982
00:44:09,620 --> 00:44:13,020
That's one metric.

983
00:44:13,020 --> 00:44:15,620
So it could have been more right, but I think ultimately

984
00:44:15,620 --> 00:44:19,820
she big business before we get into like the ratings and

985
00:44:19,820 --> 00:44:22,120
overall show for me.

986
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,820
I thought that she did I like I know this is a little some

987
00:44:25,820 --> 00:44:30,920
discord around if she should open the show versus ending

988
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:31,420
the show.

989
00:44:31,720 --> 00:44:32,120
Let's talk.

990
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:36,120
I was I was I was a proponent of her opening show her with

991
00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:36,920
the mission statement.

992
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,620
I think they did a great job with her, you know, just show

993
00:44:40,620 --> 00:44:44,320
starts off with the Mercedes, you know pulling up Mercedes

994
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:48,120
limousine pulling up the door opens all of a sudden you

995
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:54,320
start they get to the arena you hear CEO CEO the new music

996
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,420
which is performed by Mercedes Monet, which I didn't know

997
00:44:57,420 --> 00:45:01,520
until I showed that on iTunes page and she comes out.

998
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,520
She she cuts a very heartfelt promo.

999
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:08,720
She seemed to have the emotion, you know in her voice,

1000
00:45:08,720 --> 00:45:12,020
you know, the less usable in a borderline of tears talking

1001
00:45:12,020 --> 00:45:13,720
about wrestling a mentor.

1002
00:45:13,820 --> 00:45:15,120
I thought it was a great segment.

1003
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:18,320
I thought was a great moment for her possibly.

1004
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:20,620
I don't know the word is he might be the highest paid

1005
00:45:20,620 --> 00:45:23,420
women's wrestler in the world, which is great.

1006
00:45:23,820 --> 00:45:29,420
Like right like to move those barriers not be to sign a

1007
00:45:29,420 --> 00:45:32,920
contract right like so if we once again, we're talking

1008
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:33,320
about sports.

1009
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,220
We know how it is somebody has to set the market now AW

1010
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:39,220
maybe on a whole nother pay scale like Osprey got broke

1011
00:45:39,220 --> 00:45:40,520
off or kind of got broke off.

1012
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:41,620
Yep, they break.

1013
00:45:41,720 --> 00:45:44,320
They break some money's they break some monies for these

1014
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:44,820
people.

1015
00:45:45,420 --> 00:45:46,720
That's the way it should be.

1016
00:45:46,720 --> 00:45:46,920
Okay.

1017
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:48,420
Now she just set the market.

1018
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:52,020
So the next hot free agent should set the market again,

1019
00:45:52,020 --> 00:45:55,520
you know, that's this should turn into that which is once

1020
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,620
again makes the business so much better for all the talent

1021
00:45:58,620 --> 00:45:59,220
involved.

1022
00:45:59,220 --> 00:46:01,220
So overall two thumbs up way up for you.

1023
00:46:01,220 --> 00:46:06,320
Oh, yeah, well, I was very happy with her entire situation

1024
00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,020
happy with her presentation.

1025
00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,920
I thought she I thought that was a homerun hit that she

1026
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:14,620
came out and did I was very very satisfied with it.

1027
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,720
Same here my dumb, but when she first pulled up, I'm

1028
00:46:18,720 --> 00:46:20,320
like, oh my God, that's a Bentley pulling up.

1029
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:22,220
Wait that emblem.

1030
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:23,620
I'm looking I'm like wait.

1031
00:46:24,720 --> 00:46:25,520
So stupid.

1032
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:27,120
You had to read her zone.

1033
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:27,620
That's all.

1034
00:46:27,620 --> 00:46:29,920
I thought you had a reader's on it.

1035
00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:34,920
She came up even if I wasn't even the biggest asha fan

1036
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,020
because I don't or a Mercedes fan because I don't think

1037
00:46:37,020 --> 00:46:38,920
I really am the biggest Mercedes fan.

1038
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,820
That's not I think I'm not the biggest Mercedes fan when

1039
00:46:41,820 --> 00:46:43,120
she came out though.

1040
00:46:44,020 --> 00:46:46,420
I see why she got broken off.

1041
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,520
I see why she's about to be the leader of the woman's

1042
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:49,320
division there.

1043
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,920
She's a star money bag fire mode.

1044
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,520
It screams it her outfit.

1045
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:58,620
She had on like just every time she disrobed she had another

1046
00:46:58,620 --> 00:47:02,120
layer of of goddessness if that's even a word and you just

1047
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,320
overall when you you can't take your eyes off of her every

1048
00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:08,820
little way she moves her mouth her body her hands or hips her

1049
00:47:08,820 --> 00:47:10,720
little things were her little I call it the Mariah Carey

1050
00:47:10,720 --> 00:47:16,120
hands all of that you your eyes are locked on the screen

1051
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:16,620
for her.

1052
00:47:17,820 --> 00:47:21,620
I think to your point about do you start the show do you

1053
00:47:21,620 --> 00:47:23,620
in the show you're ready to not had a conversation about

1054
00:47:23,620 --> 00:47:27,420
this couple days ago. That was the only option.

1055
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:29,520
She wasn't advertised.

1056
00:47:30,820 --> 00:47:36,420
So you run the risk and yeah, we knew that she was going to

1057
00:47:36,420 --> 00:47:40,220
be at the show but to your point a million people tuned in

1058
00:47:40,220 --> 00:47:41,520
at the beginning of that show.

1059
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:47,420
If you don't make a mention of her now as a casual fan who

1060
00:47:47,420 --> 00:47:49,820
is tuning in I don't usually watch AEW.

1061
00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,320
I'm tuning in to see Mercedes and you just start off with

1062
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,320
a hot match or with Tony Giovanni in the ring to do a

1063
00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:57,920
promo segment with somebody else.

1064
00:47:58,620 --> 00:48:01,120
I'm probably not turning back until somebody calls me or

1065
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:04,120
till I see on social media Mercedes is in the ring.

1066
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:07,020
That was the only way to do it and I thought it was fantastic.

1067
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:07,720
Of course.

1068
00:48:07,720 --> 00:48:10,220
I love the segment like you guys said it.

1069
00:48:10,220 --> 00:48:14,820
She's a star and it has nothing to do with how they shot her

1070
00:48:14,820 --> 00:48:17,020
it does but it has nothing to do with how they shot her has

1071
00:48:17,020 --> 00:48:17,920
none do with her music.

1072
00:48:18,020 --> 00:48:20,520
It does has nothing to do with her outfit.

1073
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:21,220
It does.

1074
00:48:21,420 --> 00:48:22,020
It's her.

1075
00:48:22,020 --> 00:48:26,720
It's how she comes across that is somebody that is it.

1076
00:48:26,720 --> 00:48:27,220
There we go.

1077
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,320
We talk we talk about it and when somebody has it they have

1078
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,420
it and a lot of times you can't put your finger on it.

1079
00:48:32,420 --> 00:48:35,120
But when you see that thing in that person you say man,

1080
00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:38,620
that's what it is and that is what she is is it.

1081
00:48:39,820 --> 00:48:43,820
I loved her line in there where she said I need to be here.

1082
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:44,920
I want to be here.

1083
00:48:45,620 --> 00:48:49,420
AW is the only place where the revolution can be global.

1084
00:48:49,420 --> 00:48:52,820
And I love that because there was a lot of that talk online

1085
00:48:52,820 --> 00:48:56,020
if she cut that, you know, she had the the podcast interview

1086
00:48:56,020 --> 00:48:56,720
things a podcast.

1087
00:48:56,720 --> 00:49:00,120
I just I know was interview and she basically said like I

1088
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:01,720
still have unfinished business in WWE.

1089
00:49:01,720 --> 00:49:02,420
I'll be back there.

1090
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:03,720
But no shit man.

1091
00:49:03,720 --> 00:49:05,120
We all know that right.

1092
00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:09,120
It's these tribalistic fans that don't understand that everybody

1093
00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:12,420
is going to go everywhere at some point anybody who wants

1094
00:49:12,420 --> 00:49:16,020
to right like Osprey talked about he picked the you know,

1095
00:49:16,020 --> 00:49:19,120
AW over WWE because the money was better and he didn't have

1096
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:19,820
to move his family.

1097
00:49:19,820 --> 00:49:21,320
He's like this is a no-brainer for me.

1098
00:49:21,620 --> 00:49:25,120
Like yeah, I can go to WWE and be famous and work WrestleMania

1099
00:49:25,720 --> 00:49:28,020
or I can get everything else through AW.

1100
00:49:28,720 --> 00:49:32,420
But for some people that's like MJF is going to go to WWE

1101
00:49:32,420 --> 00:49:32,820
one day.

1102
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:36,020
Yeah, and it's going to be incredible to see him on a

1103
00:49:36,020 --> 00:49:40,420
WrestleMania stage killing it as MJF a little bit toned down

1104
00:49:40,420 --> 00:49:46,020
of course, but as it's going to happen like I wouldn't be

1105
00:49:46,020 --> 00:49:50,220
surprised if Cody Rhodes goes back to AEW. I don't think so

1106
00:49:50,220 --> 00:49:52,420
because I think he's like he's submitted now is like the John

1107
00:49:52,420 --> 00:49:55,320
Cena of the next generation but say if he wasn't that he

1108
00:49:55,320 --> 00:50:00,420
was still just the biggest face in WWE at a point and his

1109
00:50:00,420 --> 00:50:01,120
contract is up.

1110
00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:05,020
I could easily see him going back for you know, a year or

1111
00:50:05,020 --> 00:50:09,320
two run just to tie loose ends up but that's for me where

1112
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:13,320
I think just as business is going to get to so we all love

1113
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:18,420
the Mercedes piece. Tell you what else I love too is her

1114
00:50:18,420 --> 00:50:22,920
first physicality was sky blue and she laid that forearm in

1115
00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:26,320
and sky blue did a hell of a job of selling it and that was

1116
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:30,720
so important because that was the first piece of physicality

1117
00:50:30,720 --> 00:50:34,620
that she was going to have on AEW that forearm shiver is

1118
00:50:34,620 --> 00:50:37,920
what all the media outlets were going to pick up on outside

1119
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,220
of her promo at the beginning of the night.

1120
00:50:40,220 --> 00:50:44,420
If you mess that up, you're in trouble just like Cody had

1121
00:50:44,420 --> 00:50:48,520
to lay in that smack to the rock which was a harder smack

1122
00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:50,320
than with the rock hit him on the press conference.

1123
00:50:50,420 --> 00:50:53,420
You got to lay it in got to lay it in because that is what

1124
00:50:53,420 --> 00:50:55,720
everybody's gonna pick up on and if you can see through it,

1125
00:50:55,720 --> 00:50:57,020
then you go through that whole thing.

1126
00:50:57,020 --> 00:50:58,120
We know what that looks like.

1127
00:50:59,920 --> 00:51:02,920
Did you guys do you guys like the finish?

1128
00:51:04,820 --> 00:51:07,720
At the end of the show you got her coming out to save Willow.

1129
00:51:07,720 --> 00:51:12,820
So she showed that okay, she is a face because the woman

1130
00:51:12,820 --> 00:51:15,120
who she was in the match with where she broke her ankle

1131
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:17,920
or she hurt her heel whatever was she didn't attack.

1132
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:20,020
Are you guys good with that?

1133
00:51:20,020 --> 00:51:21,920
Or would you rather her not had shown up again?

1134
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:23,620
Would you rather have shown up and did something else?

1135
00:51:24,020 --> 00:51:26,420
Talk to me about the the end of dynamite.

1136
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:29,820
For me, I think they should have did a better job of actually

1137
00:51:29,820 --> 00:51:31,920
to let viewers know that she's going to be back at the end

1138
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:32,320
of the show.

1139
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:38,420
As a segment itself, I felt I thought it was fine.

1140
00:51:38,820 --> 00:51:41,920
Okay, I like they're coming out had no problems with it.

1141
00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:42,320
Either way.

1142
00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:43,720
I know we talked about it briefly.

1143
00:51:44,420 --> 00:51:45,920
Well, we talked about it on the last episode.

1144
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:47,920
We talked about the actual card itself.

1145
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:51,520
So we knew Mercedes coming out and this is the thing about

1146
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:52,220
AEW.

1147
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,420
We talked about a lot about it a lot of great wrestling on

1148
00:51:55,420 --> 00:51:56,320
TV right now.

1149
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,620
Lots a lot of great TV on wrestler right now WrestleMania

1150
00:52:00,620 --> 00:52:02,920
season is full-blown right now.

1151
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:05,120
Everyone's intrigued into it and people only have so much

1152
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:05,520
time.

1153
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,320
So we got to kind of pick what we can watch and this is a

1154
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,120
great opportunity to get all these eyes on AEW product.

1155
00:52:11,420 --> 00:52:17,320
And when you look at AEW that main event did the least amount

1156
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:19,620
of views out of that show.

1157
00:52:21,820 --> 00:52:24,420
I think that main event probably should have put somewhere

1158
00:52:24,420 --> 00:52:26,820
in the middle and I think this is something that AEW is going

1159
00:52:26,820 --> 00:52:29,520
to fix they're going to work on because they have a lot of

1160
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,120
positive things going for them.

1161
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:33,720
But this is some of the details need to pay attention to so

1162
00:52:33,720 --> 00:52:38,420
it can keep growing their audience because WB is hot and

1163
00:52:38,420 --> 00:52:40,320
going no, it's not going anywhere anytime fast.

1164
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:43,720
But what AEW can continue to do is build great shows with

1165
00:52:43,720 --> 00:52:44,520
great stars.

1166
00:52:44,820 --> 00:52:47,820
I don't know if you guys saw I'm not sure I share my screen

1167
00:52:47,820 --> 00:52:50,320
right now, but they have an excellent promotion coming up

1168
00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:51,320
for one of their shows.

1169
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:53,620
They have Mercedes right in the middle.

1170
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,120
They have Bryan Danielson right next to her.

1171
00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:58,620
They got swerve right below the bottom row.

1172
00:52:58,620 --> 00:53:01,620
They have the Lee they got Will Ospreay.

1173
00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:03,620
They have like all their stars on the page, right?

1174
00:53:03,620 --> 00:53:06,720
So, you know this show you're going to see an ensemble cast

1175
00:53:06,720 --> 00:53:08,520
of like great talent, right?

1176
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:13,420
We didn't kind of get that with this show with the ratings.

1177
00:53:13,420 --> 00:53:17,320
If you look at it every segment they lost about a hundred

1178
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,620
thousand viewers or more right?

1179
00:53:19,620 --> 00:53:20,820
They started with the million.

1180
00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:26,620
They ended the last segment at 627,000 the actual overall

1181
00:53:26,620 --> 00:53:30,120
show included under under run was under 800,000 people.

1182
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,020
Like right now what if they would have started with with

1183
00:53:34,020 --> 00:53:38,920
Mercedes and they create some kind of a thread of her maybe,

1184
00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,220
you know interacting with different people or just popping

1185
00:53:41,220 --> 00:53:44,320
up in the segment make letting people know that she was going

1186
00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:47,820
to be in that last segment because if you look at that

1187
00:53:47,820 --> 00:53:51,820
segment as a whole we all love Willow, right?

1188
00:53:51,820 --> 00:53:57,320
Reho I like her but it doesn't seem like a main event style

1189
00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,820
match and I think that was reflected in those reviews.

1190
00:53:59,820 --> 00:54:03,620
So quick points to quick points something I really thought

1191
00:54:03,620 --> 00:54:07,220
about and I think I'm going to stick to it.

1192
00:54:07,220 --> 00:54:09,320
So to your point about the women's match main event in

1193
00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:13,220
the show, I think that also speaks more to Mercedes is here.

1194
00:54:13,220 --> 00:54:16,920
We're treating this women's division like it should have

1195
00:54:16,920 --> 00:54:20,620
been treated a long time ago starting now if you need to

1196
00:54:20,620 --> 00:54:23,620
take your lumps for a few weeks or a few months to get to

1197
00:54:23,620 --> 00:54:27,120
that point fine in terms of from the ratings, but the part

1198
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:28,920
about the ratings I thought about it.

1199
00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:29,720
I thought about it.

1200
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:36,320
I think I'm going to stop discussing ratings particularly

1201
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:40,220
when it comes to AW less something significantly good or

1202
00:54:40,220 --> 00:54:43,420
bad happens and I'll tell you why just really really quick.

1203
00:54:43,420 --> 00:54:51,320
We know they're in contract negotiations with WBD as is

1204
00:54:53,020 --> 00:54:58,320
they're looking at for whoever knows how many years are

1205
00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:00,720
going to sign on for a billion dollar TV deal.

1206
00:55:02,820 --> 00:55:06,920
Their ratings are good enough to get a billion dollars.

1207
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,820
Now if their TV show starts to deteriorate again and we go

1208
00:55:12,820 --> 00:55:14,620
through this cycle that we've gone through plenty of times

1209
00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:17,420
right when they'll hit a few good shows and then it drops

1210
00:55:17,420 --> 00:55:19,520
off like oh what's going on and payview comes and we're

1211
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:20,820
like all bad payview is incredible.

1212
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:22,120
They got chance to reset.

1213
00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:24,120
They reset is good for a few weeks and then you know that

1214
00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:24,920
vicious cycle.

1215
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:25,820
Absolutely.

1216
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:30,320
I think about just like how I was extremely happy with that

1217
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:33,320
show on Wednesday full transparency.

1218
00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:36,920
I don't watch collision weekly like if some somebody tells

1219
00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:37,720
me something's good.

1220
00:55:37,820 --> 00:55:41,520
I go in DVR and because I still DVR it but like we were out

1221
00:55:41,520 --> 00:55:44,220
of town. I didn't get chance to watch last night show and

1222
00:55:44,220 --> 00:55:46,120
I probably won't go back and check it.

1223
00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:48,520
I'll probably just like watch the highlights but then watch

1224
00:55:48,720 --> 00:55:49,420
Dynamite.

1225
00:55:50,820 --> 00:55:55,620
They're good enough to get a massive new TV deal with their

1226
00:55:55,620 --> 00:55:59,020
fan base and their shows been great ever since we've had

1227
00:55:59,020 --> 00:56:01,220
Osprey we've had Okada, which I think they're doing great

1228
00:56:01,220 --> 00:56:05,120
with now we have Mercedes swerve is about to be world

1229
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:05,720
champion.

1230
00:56:06,420 --> 00:56:09,620
They're moving almost everything for the way I would

1231
00:56:09,620 --> 00:56:11,820
want them to over the last.

1232
00:56:11,820 --> 00:56:13,120
I mean for me it's only been a few weeks.

1233
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:15,020
I know some people feel like last couple months.

1234
00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:17,620
They've been really really hitting on all cylinder.

1235
00:56:17,620 --> 00:56:19,220
So I think only be fair.

1236
00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:21,020
We got us.

1237
00:56:21,020 --> 00:56:23,520
We got to start looking at this because we don't dissect

1238
00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:27,220
WWE segment by segment and they do some things that we

1239
00:56:27,220 --> 00:56:28,520
also like that match was fine.

1240
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:30,820
But do we really need that or that promo segment could have

1241
00:56:30,820 --> 00:56:31,320
been better.

1242
00:56:31,720 --> 00:56:33,720
Typically we don't look and be like, all right, but man that

1243
00:56:33,720 --> 00:56:35,420
segment only did granted.

1244
00:56:35,620 --> 00:56:38,020
You know one and a half million viewers in comparison.

1245
00:56:38,020 --> 00:56:40,720
So I think just we got to give them a little bit of grace

1246
00:56:40,720 --> 00:56:44,720
there and Jim Peppermint from what I hear.

1247
00:56:44,720 --> 00:56:49,520
She is more than just doing stuff with the women's division.

1248
00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:51,820
I think a head writer or something like that, right?

1249
00:56:51,820 --> 00:56:56,720
Like the VP I think of like creative for television.

1250
00:56:56,720 --> 00:57:01,620
And if that's the case, you're starting to see some of those

1251
00:57:01,620 --> 00:57:05,720
things that make a little bit more sense now with threads

1252
00:57:05,720 --> 00:57:06,520
and such.

1253
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:11,520
Yes, I get what you're saying about the ratings because I

1254
00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:15,720
know that I'm a wrestling fan, not just a W fan and I want

1255
00:57:15,720 --> 00:57:19,420
to show to grow but what I would like to stop seeing I'm

1256
00:57:19,420 --> 00:57:23,420
not saying what you what you're doing, but I know that a W

1257
00:57:23,420 --> 00:57:26,920
touted at the ratings in the demos when they were dominating

1258
00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:27,420
now.

1259
00:57:27,420 --> 00:57:29,620
They're not we don't want to look at her talk about it.

1260
00:57:29,620 --> 00:57:32,520
There's something to be said with that because it shows a

1261
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:36,520
trend that you can fix because for me it's not about, you

1262
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,220
know breaking down this this this company is about how can

1263
00:57:39,220 --> 00:57:43,020
we fix things and move up for me is always about how I let

1264
00:57:43,020 --> 00:57:45,720
me let me look at this lane how we can fix it and some of

1265
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:47,920
the arms is just pacing and let how the shoulders are

1266
00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:50,720
structured and as I said last week my biggest thing was

1267
00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:52,620
and you know, you guys are coming for me a little bit.

1268
00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:54,720
You like you just it's just not for you like no, I just

1269
00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:56,620
think that they can do a better man a little bit.

1270
00:57:56,620 --> 00:57:58,320
Now we were coming for you.

1271
00:57:58,820 --> 00:58:01,520
We were coming for you with the whole Seth Rollins Roman

1272
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,920
Reigns thing and you was loud and loud and wrong sir.

1273
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:06,920
You were loud wrong II.

1274
00:58:07,020 --> 00:58:10,220
When was the last time Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins before

1275
00:58:10,220 --> 00:58:11,620
the Royal Rumble has had a match?

1276
00:58:12,420 --> 00:58:16,720
It was 2019 but but my point with that was let me ask you

1277
00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:20,320
a question since we going back to that my thing was on

1278
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:20,720
this show.

1279
00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:25,520
We ran a storyline that Seth is in his over with audience

1280
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:29,920
as he thinks he is his his his his music his is more over

1281
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:33,220
than he is Rhodesia said a couple of days ago when all

1282
00:58:33,220 --> 00:58:35,120
four of those guys were in the ring that he was the person

1283
00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:36,220
that didn't belong in the ring.

1284
00:58:36,620 --> 00:58:40,020
So we haven't been a fan of him and his act in quite some

1285
00:58:40,020 --> 00:58:40,520
time.

1286
00:58:40,620 --> 00:58:43,520
So for me as a fan, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

1287
00:58:43,620 --> 00:58:45,220
Oh now I said something wrong now.

1288
00:58:45,220 --> 00:58:45,620
Go ahead.

1289
00:58:45,620 --> 00:58:46,720
What did I say wrong now?

1290
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:50,420
You said please how do I go from first of how do I go from

1291
00:58:50,420 --> 00:58:52,420
saying that he's doesn't belong in?

1292
00:58:52,420 --> 00:58:56,920
I'm going to other people versus I'm not a fan of Seth

1293
00:58:56,920 --> 00:59:00,820
Rollins like how do you change like that whole narrative for

1294
00:59:00,820 --> 00:59:01,120
me?

1295
00:59:01,220 --> 00:59:03,420
I just say he didn't belong with those three guys.

1296
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:09,320
Anyway, so as I said as a no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

1297
00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:11,220
I want you to answer my question since you're trying to

1298
00:59:11,220 --> 00:59:12,220
call me out there.

1299
00:59:12,220 --> 00:59:15,620
No, what do you want me to correct so I can correct so we

1300
00:59:15,620 --> 00:59:17,020
can blow it to show because we got to keep it going.

1301
00:59:17,020 --> 00:59:17,620
What do you want me saying?

1302
00:59:17,620 --> 00:59:21,120
You said that because I said that Seth Rollins are you a

1303
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:23,120
fan of his as I'm going to say you're been a fan the whole

1304
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:23,520
time.

1305
00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:26,820
Okay, so I'm the one who said Seth Rollins has been the MVP

1306
00:59:26,820 --> 00:59:29,820
of wrestling especially for WWE over the last three to four

1307
00:59:29,820 --> 00:59:30,320
years.

1308
00:59:30,420 --> 00:59:32,520
I have said that I have receipts of that.

1309
00:59:33,220 --> 00:59:37,420
Okay, so these road is a road road is a fan of his so Matt

1310
00:59:37,420 --> 00:59:40,420
and I have said that maybe I actually I don't even believe

1311
00:59:40,420 --> 00:59:43,120
that actually I think that his song has been okay, but we've

1312
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:47,720
been saying on the show collectively as a team that Seth

1313
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:50,920
Rollins has been over as his as his as his interest.

1314
00:59:51,020 --> 00:59:53,520
So this a couple weeks ago.

1315
00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:55,420
He waited and belonging to ring with the with the other four

1316
00:59:55,420 --> 00:59:55,720
people.

1317
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:58,120
So now it's a missed opportunity to have a match Roman

1318
00:59:58,120 --> 00:59:58,320
Reigns.

1319
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:01,720
I'm just saying I was looking forward to it as a team.

1320
01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:03,120
I didn't think we were looking forward to us.

1321
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:04,520
I know was missed opportunity.

1322
01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,720
No all I was saying then of course we can move on all I

1323
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:10,420
was saying was they have they had a missed opportunity.

1324
01:00:10,420 --> 01:00:12,120
I'm not saying it should have been the main event of this

1325
01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:14,620
WrestleMania and that's what I kind of think you thought I

1326
01:00:14,620 --> 01:00:17,220
was saying like they we need to flip out Cody who need to

1327
01:00:17,220 --> 01:00:19,520
take the rock out and then go Roman and Seth I wouldn't say

1328
01:00:19,620 --> 01:00:22,420
he was a missed opportunity any pilly pilly is what I was

1329
01:00:22,420 --> 01:00:22,920
trying to say.

1330
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:27,220
So I think you just said I think that's just what he hates

1331
01:00:27,220 --> 01:00:29,120
and you and you're projecting that's all that is.

1332
01:00:29,220 --> 01:00:31,820
So that's what you're not going to project on me or on my

1333
01:00:31,820 --> 01:00:32,420
character.

1334
01:00:32,620 --> 01:00:33,620
So let me ask you a question.

1335
01:00:33,620 --> 01:00:36,020
Oh, these let me ask you a question of rhodesia so you

1336
01:00:36,020 --> 01:00:40,420
can comment down because I think you have your husband.

1337
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:44,120
How many times your does your husband say that that Seth

1338
01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:46,120
Rollins wasn't over as his interest music.

1339
01:00:46,220 --> 01:00:48,120
He says that all the times he says it all the time.

1340
01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:50,220
Okay, but that but that doesn't that doesn't mean that Seth

1341
01:00:50,220 --> 01:00:51,320
is not a good worker.

1342
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:52,320
I think that's the difference.

1343
01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:54,720
You're a lot like these internet fans like we not talking

1344
01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:55,720
about him being a worker.

1345
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,620
Now you're taking but just overall to see I don't I don't

1346
01:00:58,620 --> 01:01:00,320
watch wrestling to see workers.

1347
01:01:00,420 --> 01:01:02,420
That's I see I look for characters.

1348
01:01:02,420 --> 01:01:04,120
You can we call them a clown all week.

1349
01:01:04,220 --> 01:01:06,820
You can have a constructive criticism on somebody still be

1350
01:01:06,820 --> 01:01:09,620
an avid and can be an absolute fan of that person.

1351
01:01:09,620 --> 01:01:12,620
That's what we do with a W we're constructive with a W

1352
01:01:12,620 --> 01:01:13,320
because we are huge.

1353
01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:17,120
Well, I'm a huge a W fan so you can absolutely say something

1354
01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:18,820
and say that his music is more over than him.

1355
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:21,220
That doesn't mean that you don't like the person anymore.

1356
01:01:21,220 --> 01:01:23,920
We also didn't like most of his matches this year.

1357
01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:27,220
Who said that the fuse?

1358
01:01:27,220 --> 01:01:29,920
Yeah, that was that was that I've never said that.

1359
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:33,320
Yeah, I didn't like the Nakamura Nakamura ones.

1360
01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:36,420
We talked about that, but we let's go back to his matches.

1361
01:01:36,420 --> 01:01:38,320
Oh, we're circle jerking again.

1362
01:01:38,320 --> 01:01:41,820
It was so so back to Monet and Nika and Nika more has one

1363
01:01:41,820 --> 01:01:43,420
more few before I got it.

1364
01:01:43,420 --> 01:01:46,020
We got to have a conversation about him on this pot or at

1365
01:01:46,020 --> 01:01:49,320
least one more few with with with that same mo just that

1366
01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:52,420
whoever whoever I don't care who I don't care what the mo is.

1367
01:01:52,420 --> 01:01:53,420
I don't care who it is.

1368
01:01:53,420 --> 01:01:56,520
He's got one more few before we get on this platform and have

1369
01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:58,020
a serious conversation about him.

1370
01:01:58,120 --> 01:01:59,220
I'm sorry you go ahead man.

1371
01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:00,420
He's a mid-car guy.

1372
01:02:00,420 --> 01:02:01,420
He's fine where he is.

1373
01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:06,420
But um, yeah with Nick if he comes up with this cartoon one

1374
01:02:06,420 --> 01:02:13,920
more time and lose, you know, you know, but no like we just

1375
01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:16,420
uh, it's just like, you know, we look at the shows like it's

1376
01:02:16,420 --> 01:02:18,720
just as you say, this is just constructive is not that I'm

1377
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:19,720
an AW hater.

1378
01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:23,820
I don't prefer the show is that I noticed that that show I

1379
01:02:23,820 --> 01:02:26,620
didn't think for when I if you're not a core wrestling fan,

1380
01:02:26,620 --> 01:02:27,820
you know, you look at that show.

1381
01:02:27,820 --> 01:02:30,220
It wasn't something that's going to maintain an audience.

1382
01:02:30,220 --> 01:02:32,320
It doesn't normally watch I thought they should come out

1383
01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:35,420
there with the after the show like after watching everything

1384
01:02:35,420 --> 01:02:40,020
you still feel like um, it wasn't good enough to have

1385
01:02:40,020 --> 01:02:42,920
somebody who may not necessarily watch start watching or do

1386
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:44,220
you feel like okay now they did enough.

1387
01:02:44,220 --> 01:02:47,020
Yeah, maybe they didn't put the entire best foot forward the

1388
01:02:47,020 --> 01:02:49,320
way you would have done it if you were the Booker, but you

1389
01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:51,920
feel like what you saw on Wednesday if somebody doesn't

1390
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:54,420
typically watch they would start watching AW or at least

1391
01:02:54,420 --> 01:02:55,220
give it a chance again.

1392
01:02:55,620 --> 01:02:57,820
I mean, I got me if you look at those Nelson ratings, it shows

1393
01:02:57,820 --> 01:03:01,520
it that the people tuned in they tuned out as the show went

1394
01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:01,720
on.

1395
01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:02,720
No, I'm saying for you.

1396
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:04,920
I'm saying just to take the ratings out for what you saw

1397
01:03:04,920 --> 01:03:08,120
with your own eyes was entertainment factor and as a

1398
01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:09,720
as a wrestling fan.

1399
01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:11,820
I never said I didn't as a wrestling fan.

1400
01:03:11,820 --> 01:03:12,920
I wouldn't be interested in show.

1401
01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:13,820
I that wasn't my point.

1402
01:03:13,820 --> 01:03:15,520
My so yes to answer the question.

1403
01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:18,820
I thought as a wrestling fan, so this is give you a bigger

1404
01:03:18,820 --> 01:03:22,820
person that you guys aren't into as much as I am WWE 2k24.

1405
01:03:22,820 --> 01:03:25,020
I think it's the best wrestling game that's been out in a

1406
01:03:25,020 --> 01:03:26,220
long time, right?

1407
01:03:26,220 --> 01:03:27,020
I can say that guy.

1408
01:03:27,020 --> 01:03:27,520
I love the show.

1409
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:28,520
I'm a super fan of it.

1410
01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:33,220
Okay, that doesn't necessarily mean that I think that maybe

1411
01:03:33,220 --> 01:03:36,020
road DJ who hasn't played the game in 10 years when she turns

1412
01:03:36,020 --> 01:03:38,220
on she's going to feel the same way I do because I don't think

1413
01:03:38,420 --> 01:03:42,020
that game enough is going to bring in newer people.

1414
01:03:42,020 --> 01:03:44,820
I think if you like the game, you're going to see them prove

1415
01:03:44,820 --> 01:03:46,320
it. You're going to feel the improvement and you're going to

1416
01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:46,820
know what I know.

1417
01:03:46,820 --> 01:03:47,420
That's the best one.

1418
01:03:47,420 --> 01:03:49,120
They put out in quite some time, right?

1419
01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:51,320
But I don't think there's any thing specifically about the

1420
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:54,220
game that's going to bring in a newer audience when I watch

1421
01:03:54,220 --> 01:03:54,820
that person.

1422
01:03:55,220 --> 01:03:57,620
Yeah, and that's that's what I felt like when I when I looked

1423
01:03:57,620 --> 01:03:58,620
at that card last night.

1424
01:03:58,620 --> 01:03:59,320
It's to me last week.

1425
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:00,420
I got better than 24.

1426
01:04:01,120 --> 01:04:02,120
I don't that's the best one.

1427
01:04:02,620 --> 01:04:05,520
So you had that as the best 2k game the best one.

1428
01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:08,820
So then which wrestling game do you have as the best wrestling

1429
01:04:08,820 --> 01:04:10,020
game of all time?

1430
01:04:11,420 --> 01:04:14,320
Say what again, which wrestling game do you have as the best

1431
01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:15,420
wrestling game of all time?

1432
01:04:16,220 --> 01:04:17,820
This one so true.

1433
01:04:17,820 --> 01:04:20,720
So not just 2k you have it better than no mercy Smackdown

1434
01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:23,520
versus raw that 2000 version was crazy.

1435
01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:24,220
All of it.

1436
01:04:24,220 --> 01:04:24,620
You have it.

1437
01:04:24,620 --> 01:04:26,320
You have it as the best wrestling game ever made.

1438
01:04:27,220 --> 01:04:30,120
So like it I can't go back to how I felt when I played those

1439
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:30,420
games.

1440
01:04:30,420 --> 01:04:33,320
But when I play those games side by side right now, I mean,

1441
01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:37,120
there's just so much more to do got you the action the graphics,

1442
01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:41,220
you know, so if I can somehow, you know, take my feelings

1443
01:04:41,220 --> 01:04:45,520
and during that time, maybe one of those games could have

1444
01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:49,120
superseded but right now it's the best one and the problem

1445
01:04:49,120 --> 01:04:50,820
is you can't go back because even you went back and play you

1446
01:04:50,820 --> 01:04:53,220
like what is this jump like, you know what I'm saying?

1447
01:04:53,220 --> 01:04:56,620
Like talking 20 frames per second all that kind of stuff

1448
01:04:56,620 --> 01:04:57,620
and own say I'd say this.

1449
01:04:57,620 --> 01:04:59,120
I think you asked me about the final form.

1450
01:04:59,120 --> 01:05:01,820
I think that 2k 25 they keep progressing would be better

1451
01:05:01,820 --> 01:05:03,320
than 22k 24.

1452
01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:04,820
I don't think they finished with with the game.

1453
01:05:04,820 --> 01:05:06,220
I guess it's not perfect yet either.

1454
01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:10,520
But again, I can say that and still say hey, this is the

1455
01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:14,120
best game I've ever played right, but also a Jeff Lee say

1456
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:15,720
that I don't think it's going to bring in roadie.

1457
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:17,920
Who's probably not playing the games right?

1458
01:05:17,920 --> 01:05:20,120
I can still say that it's going to be another one that's going

1459
01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:22,220
to be better next year because this isn't done.

1460
01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:24,720
That's how I felt when I looked at that a w card like yes,

1461
01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:26,720
as a wrestling fan, I can appreciate know exactly what

1462
01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:28,620
they're doing and why to put people with certain people

1463
01:05:28,620 --> 01:05:30,920
in places, but also going to look and say like, you know

1464
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:34,920
what Johnny somebody who doesn't watch a w or watch pro

1465
01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:37,520
wrestling all the time and they come in and see Sasha Banks

1466
01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:40,620
for whatever reason is saying enough to keep them watching.

1467
01:05:40,620 --> 01:05:41,020
I get you.

1468
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:41,820
No, I got that.

1469
01:05:42,020 --> 01:05:42,720
I got that.

1470
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,220
I do I do want to give them their flowers.

1471
01:05:48,020 --> 01:05:50,520
On I have a lot of things to give them their flowers about

1472
01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:50,820
today.

1473
01:05:50,820 --> 01:05:54,020
Yeah, which one is that which one is a you?

1474
01:05:55,620 --> 01:05:56,620
That was seeing punk.

1475
01:05:58,120 --> 01:05:59,520
One in comes your town.

1476
01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:07,620
I want I want to shout out Bryce Brinsburg the referee and

1477
01:06:07,620 --> 01:06:13,520
I also I loved what he did and during the match with Darby

1478
01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:14,820
and Jay white.

1479
01:06:16,820 --> 01:06:19,320
He made them break the count.

1480
01:06:21,220 --> 01:06:27,320
We give a w a lot of crap for their refereeing or lack there

1481
01:06:27,320 --> 01:06:31,720
of no enforcement of the rules and they're outside.

1482
01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:33,020
It was a spot there outside.

1483
01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:36,620
So all three of them are outside and Bryce is like getting

1484
01:06:36,620 --> 01:06:37,120
the ring.

1485
01:06:37,820 --> 01:06:41,120
You got to break the count and Jay looked at him.

1486
01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:42,520
Jay didn't want to do it at first.

1487
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:44,920
Yeah, and then he did it again and it had nothing to do

1488
01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:45,620
with the match.

1489
01:06:45,720 --> 01:06:48,620
That's how I know it was more of him just protecting the

1490
01:06:48,620 --> 01:06:48,820
rules.

1491
01:06:48,820 --> 01:06:50,820
I look man like you if you're going to say out here break

1492
01:06:50,820 --> 01:06:53,220
go break the count and he rolled out and rolled in and he

1493
01:06:53,220 --> 01:06:54,320
said something to Bryce.

1494
01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:56,420
I love that.

1495
01:06:56,420 --> 01:06:57,720
I thought that was fantastic.

1496
01:06:58,220 --> 01:07:01,820
So I want to give him the flowers for that but to kind of

1497
01:07:01,820 --> 01:07:03,920
eat what you were saying just in terms of like just tightening

1498
01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:07,620
up some things what I wish that I would have loved for them

1499
01:07:07,620 --> 01:07:10,920
to do was that we now we know Darby is not climbing Mount

1500
01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:11,320
Everest.

1501
01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:15,020
He shoot legit broke his foot in that match.

1502
01:07:15,120 --> 01:07:16,420
Which spots was that recovery?

1503
01:07:16,820 --> 01:07:18,720
He's I was when he was coming off the top row.

1504
01:07:18,820 --> 01:07:21,420
It was a top row spot from the outside from inside from the

1505
01:07:21,420 --> 01:07:21,820
outside.

1506
01:07:21,820 --> 01:07:22,620
I don't know.

1507
01:07:22,620 --> 01:07:25,220
I just remember he said we came off the top rope and he landed.

1508
01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:28,720
I don't know if he knew at the time but the course he did

1509
01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:34,620
x-rays and but the universe is speaking to that man do it

1510
01:07:34,620 --> 01:07:36,720
ain't you ain't supposed to be going to Mount Everest right

1511
01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:37,020
now.

1512
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,920
So I'm glad that was the case because how horrible would that

1513
01:07:39,920 --> 01:07:42,720
have been if they kind of use that as a storyline.

1514
01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:45,320
This may be my last match and then he fucking dies trying to

1515
01:07:45,420 --> 01:07:46,320
climb Mount Everest.

1516
01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:48,720
I'm all about you doing what you want to be able to do when

1517
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,020
it's smart, but he probably just want to chill out on that

1518
01:07:51,020 --> 01:07:55,620
but um, so Jay white the turn Hill right at the end, which

1519
01:07:55,620 --> 01:08:00,220
I thought was great somebody on YouTube had a comment, which

1520
01:08:00,220 --> 01:08:02,920
I don't think we ever said Jay white was worthless.

1521
01:08:03,220 --> 01:08:06,620
They made a comment of like, hey tell me how Jay white is

1522
01:08:06,620 --> 01:08:09,020
worthless when you know, he's you know, they spotted off the

1523
01:08:09,020 --> 01:08:09,320
record.

1524
01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:13,120
He's had he's been undefeated so far this year and I said,

1525
01:08:13,420 --> 01:08:15,820
you know, we are all major fans of Jay's actually quite the

1526
01:08:15,820 --> 01:08:16,420
contrary.

1527
01:08:16,420 --> 01:08:17,220
Yeah, it's his position.

1528
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:18,920
Yeah, he was on a pre-show.

1529
01:08:18,920 --> 01:08:22,720
He's with the bang bang scissor game and three of us is right

1530
01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:25,920
because what they do they they broke up the bang bang scissor

1531
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:29,220
game right and immediately kind of thrust the Jay white back

1532
01:08:29,220 --> 01:08:33,020
into that nasty Hill that he should always be for right now

1533
01:08:33,020 --> 01:08:34,920
anyway, but back to what I was trying to say.

1534
01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:38,220
Um, so they do they do the the gimmick with they're about to

1535
01:08:38,220 --> 01:08:39,820
break Darby's ankle.

1536
01:08:41,220 --> 01:08:43,620
And I was telling little Matt like, okay, so you knew you

1537
01:08:43,620 --> 01:08:45,520
were bringing up bang bang scissor game.

1538
01:08:45,520 --> 01:08:49,520
I'm sure the week before you knew that was happening and

1539
01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:51,120
maybe you don't know how you're going to get there, but you

1540
01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:53,720
knew okay on this episode, we're breaking up bang bang

1541
01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:54,420
scissor game.

1542
01:08:56,020 --> 01:09:02,720
Jay white use in the promo the previous week man, it would be

1543
01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:06,220
a shame if something happens to you next week and you can't

1544
01:09:06,220 --> 01:09:10,520
climb Mount Everest and you grab, you know a bat or you

1545
01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:15,120
grab that chair and you kind of just tap it and then you run

1546
01:09:15,120 --> 01:09:17,820
that angle to add more to it.

1547
01:09:17,820 --> 01:09:20,620
So as soon as you start we all know everybody in arena knows

1548
01:09:20,620 --> 01:09:23,120
everybody on TV is watching they're like, oh, he's really

1549
01:09:23,120 --> 01:09:24,220
about to fucking break his ankle.

1550
01:09:25,320 --> 01:09:27,620
It still was effective but imagine if they would have just

1551
01:09:27,620 --> 01:09:31,520
added that little tweak the week before those are the things

1552
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:35,220
where I just want them just to a little bit more right, but

1553
01:09:35,220 --> 01:09:37,620
I think that comes from just the course of decades and

1554
01:09:37,620 --> 01:09:39,320
decades of us watching wrestling.

1555
01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:41,620
We can just pick up our life man maximize that moment.

1556
01:09:41,620 --> 01:09:45,120
You got a good moment, but make it a great moment maximize it.

1557
01:09:46,220 --> 01:09:48,720
Man, I thought Jay white I love that guy man.

1558
01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:50,420
I like think he's won a great Hill.

1559
01:09:50,420 --> 01:09:53,920
I would love them to do more with them every time I see him

1560
01:09:53,920 --> 01:09:56,620
wrestle and him go do his thing in the ring and then I see

1561
01:09:56,820 --> 01:10:00,220
Rodney strong and as a champion I get irritated every time.

1562
01:10:00,220 --> 01:10:02,920
I find a way to head on Roderick bingo.

1563
01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:07,120
Hey, let's talk about let's talk about that that war low war

1564
01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:12,620
and those my gosh, I thought it was so anti-climatic for me.

1565
01:10:14,620 --> 01:10:18,220
I felt like did I miss something because it was like it

1566
01:10:18,220 --> 01:10:21,520
never left gears in and he got choked out.

1567
01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:24,920
I mean, I just again, I'm I am going to watch dynamite this

1568
01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:27,720
coming Wednesday to kind of see what happens after that.

1569
01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:31,820
But if I wasn't so much of a w fan, I probably would be pissed

1570
01:10:31,820 --> 01:10:35,320
and say I'm not going to but that match to me did not stop.

1571
01:10:35,320 --> 01:10:38,120
You got to explain why because to me the match itself felt

1572
01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:39,620
like it never even switched gears.

1573
01:10:39,620 --> 01:10:42,720
It just seemed like a completely just like a blah for that.

1574
01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:45,520
I think that was the first match of the night to like after

1575
01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:46,620
following Mercedes.

1576
01:10:46,820 --> 01:10:48,020
Are you sure that's why you feel that way though?

1577
01:10:48,020 --> 01:10:49,720
Because the Mercedes segment was so good.

1578
01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:52,820
Who knows who knows maybe I think that may be why you felt

1579
01:10:52,820 --> 01:10:55,520
but I but I still feel like that match didn't didn't leave

1580
01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:58,720
and then you right before the match started it ends with

1581
01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:01,720
Adam Cole reading out of the book of whatever he's reading

1582
01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:05,520
out of and he's supposed to win and now he didn't so like

1583
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:06,920
I said as a fan.

1584
01:11:07,220 --> 01:11:10,420
I'm going to watch on dynamite to see what happens next.

1585
01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:14,120
But to me, unless you're ready to now take were low to be

1586
01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:16,520
completely by himself again, which he should always be.

1587
01:11:16,520 --> 01:11:21,220
I think I don't know if I wasn't a huge a w fan if I would

1588
01:11:21,220 --> 01:11:22,220
have been happy with that.

1589
01:11:22,420 --> 01:11:23,220
That's nuts.

1590
01:11:23,620 --> 01:11:25,820
You swerve is winning the title at Dynasty.

1591
01:11:25,820 --> 01:11:28,220
Why would you flip it on were low just for him to lose it

1592
01:11:28,620 --> 01:11:31,320
in a month and you know that he's winning that title at

1593
01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:34,220
Dynasty so we couldn't get any any other kind of ending

1594
01:11:34,220 --> 01:11:36,320
on outside of him being choked out.

1595
01:11:36,820 --> 01:11:38,220
That's like see you.

1596
01:11:38,220 --> 01:11:38,420
Okay.

1597
01:11:38,420 --> 01:11:40,120
So you so your thing is the choke out part.

1598
01:11:40,220 --> 01:11:43,020
Yes, that's your oh and also in the match was just never

1599
01:11:43,020 --> 01:11:44,320
got out of second gear either.

1600
01:11:44,420 --> 01:11:45,420
So Lisa didn't tap.

1601
01:11:45,720 --> 01:11:47,120
I mean, I don't think he would make like a job.

1602
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:49,920
I think it just I think it helped Joe more than it hurt

1603
01:11:50,220 --> 01:11:51,620
war low to be honest.

1604
01:11:51,620 --> 01:11:52,820
It just to me hurt one.

1605
01:11:53,820 --> 01:11:56,420
Yeah, I mean I just I guess maybe because I knew he wasn't

1606
01:11:56,420 --> 01:11:57,220
winning the title.

1607
01:11:57,220 --> 01:12:01,920
See finally, I actually agree with the road is on a w topic

1608
01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:04,420
because I felt the same way when I actually watched that

1609
01:12:04,420 --> 01:12:08,120
because I'm already out of the whole undisputed Kingdom

1610
01:12:08,120 --> 01:12:08,520
thing.

1611
01:12:08,820 --> 01:12:10,520
I think that those guys look horrible.

1612
01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:13,620
I mean like we just the tag team champions got beat up

1613
01:12:13,620 --> 01:12:17,520
by one man just a week or so before right and then their

1614
01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:23,120
big bad enforcer gets choked out clean on in front of their

1615
01:12:23,120 --> 01:12:26,020
biggest audience in some time and now I'm supposed to take

1616
01:12:26,020 --> 01:12:28,420
this faction and continue to take them facts this fashion

1617
01:12:28,420 --> 01:12:36,720
seriously or or or or you can say now you just added another

1618
01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:39,020
bullet in the chamber for Samoa Joe.

1619
01:12:39,120 --> 01:12:42,420
So when swerve does beat him it means even more like like

1620
01:12:42,420 --> 01:12:46,520
what's more important at this point protecting war low or

1621
01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:49,620
getting swerve where he needs to get to and we will say we

1622
01:12:49,620 --> 01:12:51,820
will all say the latter is the last word for sure is to get

1623
01:12:51,820 --> 01:12:56,220
to so he's got to like he's got to lose ain't no ain't no

1624
01:12:56,220 --> 01:12:57,120
shame in losing the smoke.

1625
01:12:57,620 --> 01:13:01,120
You know what I'm gonna be like the great Donald Trump man.

1626
01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:02,520
I'm not gonna let you back me in the corner.

1627
01:13:02,620 --> 01:13:07,320
There's a third option was third option is a not booked

1628
01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:09,520
a match number two.

1629
01:13:10,020 --> 01:13:15,020
You can you can protect war low right or in another one get

1630
01:13:15,020 --> 01:13:16,320
these clowns off my TV.

1631
01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:19,320
I don't need to see the under can't under underwhelming.

1632
01:13:19,320 --> 01:13:21,520
That's right.

1633
01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:23,820
The underwhelming the underwhelming Kingdom of Science

1634
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:25,120
on my TV, right?

1635
01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:29,320
I don't need to see him like it get this a preface of things

1636
01:13:29,320 --> 01:13:34,020
need to do you may just given us our you may have given us

1637
01:13:34,020 --> 01:13:36,420
our title the under Kingdom that is fantastic.

1638
01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:39,220
Yeah, no, it now if I was booking it.

1639
01:13:39,220 --> 01:13:40,820
No, I wouldn't have done it that way.

1640
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:44,220
I would have probably had the Kingdom try to interfere

1641
01:13:44,220 --> 01:13:45,520
somehow maybe in that fires.

1642
01:13:45,620 --> 01:13:46,820
I would have done something different.

1643
01:13:46,820 --> 01:13:50,720
I'm saying in totality if we got to do one or the other give

1644
01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:52,020
me maybe I'm just on a high.

1645
01:13:52,020 --> 01:13:53,920
I know swerve is winning the title.

1646
01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:56,620
Yeah, like so I'm just like, all right, whatever we got to

1647
01:13:56,620 --> 01:13:57,620
do to get to that point.

1648
01:13:58,020 --> 01:13:59,020
Okay, whatever.

1649
01:13:59,020 --> 01:13:59,720
I'm good with it.

1650
01:14:00,520 --> 01:14:03,320
I just got a couple of production things and then I'm done

1651
01:14:04,620 --> 01:14:05,120
one.

1652
01:14:05,420 --> 01:14:09,620
I absolutely loved after the Mercedes thing when Renee I

1653
01:14:09,620 --> 01:14:10,920
forgot who she was interviewing.

1654
01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:11,520
I might have been Joe.

1655
01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:12,820
She was actually interviewing Joe.

1656
01:14:13,020 --> 01:14:16,520
The first thing she said was hey, she addressed that we

1657
01:14:16,520 --> 01:14:18,820
just saw Mercedes because they just came back from commercial

1658
01:14:19,020 --> 01:14:21,820
and she had mentioned that the Mercedes returned welcome.

1659
01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:23,720
That's something I don't think we've gotten before.

1660
01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:25,520
So I really love that.

1661
01:14:25,620 --> 01:14:28,420
I love the new I'm gonna call it a commercial their new

1662
01:14:28,420 --> 01:14:31,520
Dynamite commercial that is all fire to me.

1663
01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:35,020
Like I thought the production and how look yes very NXT

1664
01:14:35,020 --> 01:14:37,120
2.0 ish looking but I liked it.

1665
01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:38,320
It was really cool.

1666
01:14:38,720 --> 01:14:43,120
I mean, then just my last part my worry and my concern and

1667
01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:46,320
that was one of the reasons to why I wanted Osprey to go to

1668
01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:51,920
WWE was him being able to talk on a mic and he proved me

1669
01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:52,520
wrong.

1670
01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:53,420
He smoked it.

1671
01:14:55,520 --> 01:14:57,420
Loved his promo.

1672
01:14:57,720 --> 01:14:58,620
Yeah, I love it.

1673
01:14:58,620 --> 01:15:02,120
It was him and you could tell it was him and for him to have

1674
01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:02,920
that passion.

1675
01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:05,320
Oh my and then just like the little things about what I love

1676
01:15:05,320 --> 01:15:09,320
about Osprey to he's super hyped super and then he tosses

1677
01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:13,720
the mic back to Tony Siobhan and shook his hand and left

1678
01:15:13,720 --> 01:15:16,620
valiantly like I loved everything about that.

1679
01:15:16,620 --> 01:15:19,720
So were my only concern I felt about will that maybe he doesn't

1680
01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:22,220
have it on the mic at least on Dynamite.

1681
01:15:22,220 --> 01:15:23,020
He proved me wrong.

1682
01:15:24,020 --> 01:15:25,920
I spray as a star comes across as a star.

1683
01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:26,920
It looks like a star.

1684
01:15:27,420 --> 01:15:28,420
They're doing him right.

1685
01:15:28,420 --> 01:15:29,620
They're doing Okada, right?

1686
01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:34,020
They started with Mercedes, right?

1687
01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:36,620
As of right now and we really early in it.

1688
01:15:36,620 --> 01:15:39,620
They're three for three, you know, the Copeland and Christian

1689
01:15:39,620 --> 01:15:42,120
thing is still going on the jury's out on that.

1690
01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:43,620
We know the jury's been out.

1691
01:15:43,620 --> 01:15:47,420
Well, the majority of their signings started strong and then

1692
01:15:47,420 --> 01:15:52,020
kind of died died out outside of Brian outside of coal.

1693
01:15:54,220 --> 01:15:56,420
They there they got some really good momentum.

1694
01:15:56,820 --> 01:15:59,820
So right now I'm really happy with where they are and I just

1695
01:15:59,820 --> 01:16:00,520
got to keep building.

1696
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:01,520
They got to keep building.

1697
01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:03,420
We you know, I guess we'll hear from Mercedes Wednesday.

1698
01:16:03,820 --> 01:16:05,620
We still don't know what her first few is going to be.

1699
01:16:07,020 --> 01:16:07,920
So it should be good.

1700
01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:12,020
It should be really good last thing on AW and then we can get

1701
01:16:12,020 --> 01:16:12,520
out of here.

1702
01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:22,120
Where does a where does Mercedes debut rank?

1703
01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:24,520
In a W.

1704
01:16:25,820 --> 01:16:30,020
And just how much you enjoyed it.

1705
01:16:30,020 --> 01:16:31,820
So just enjoyment level not impact.

1706
01:16:31,820 --> 01:16:34,920
We'll talk about that in a few weeks, but enjoyment level

1707
01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:38,620
when it was, you know, 815 or 820 whatever time that segment

1708
01:16:38,620 --> 01:16:39,120
was over.

1709
01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:40,920
Are you putting it?

1710
01:16:42,620 --> 01:16:46,720
After punk one or two you put it before punk one or two you

1711
01:16:46,720 --> 01:16:49,220
putting it before coal you putting it after coal you putting

1712
01:16:49,220 --> 01:16:51,020
it after Brian where you putting it at?

1713
01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:59,820
Oh, they're close to me punk and Mercedes are close.

1714
01:17:00,820 --> 01:17:05,420
I kind of you know, the being a big seeing punk fan in me.

1715
01:17:05,420 --> 01:17:08,020
I thought it was just I thought the guy was never going to

1716
01:17:08,020 --> 01:17:10,920
come back and wrestle again just based on all the interviews

1717
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:14,820
and his attitude towards and seem like it just almost changed

1718
01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:15,720
overnight.

1719
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:23,320
So seeing him back was big for me as a fan, but I love the

1720
01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:25,920
all the positivity around Mercedes and her debut.

1721
01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:29,220
I think they did right by whether they view I think they

1722
01:17:29,220 --> 01:17:29,620
did.

1723
01:17:29,920 --> 01:17:32,520
I mean they did everything everything they can do.

1724
01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:33,120
I think he did it.

1725
01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:34,020
Correct way.

1726
01:17:34,120 --> 01:17:37,220
I love that that she got the proper intro into into that

1727
01:17:37,220 --> 01:17:37,820
company.

1728
01:17:39,520 --> 01:17:41,520
I guess I might I know some cop.

1729
01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:44,820
I might say it's they're they're side by side.

1730
01:17:44,820 --> 01:17:47,320
You going to tie there right there.

1731
01:17:47,620 --> 01:17:48,220
Right there.

1732
01:17:49,420 --> 01:17:52,320
My favorite is purely just based off of my fandom for the

1733
01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:57,720
person and I still don't know who to me personally who's

1734
01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:00,820
going to beat the return of Brian Danza that that just that

1735
01:18:00,820 --> 01:18:05,020
meant so much to me that hit me so deep so mine is Brian

1736
01:18:05,020 --> 01:18:08,120
solid with Mercedes probably after that.

1737
01:18:08,820 --> 01:18:12,520
So after that one, yeah, and what it was because you had

1738
01:18:12,520 --> 01:18:15,720
cold 30 seconds before that it was the back to back that

1739
01:18:15,720 --> 01:18:17,620
was just like what the fuck is happening right now?

1740
01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:29,520
In terms of enjoyment level, I'm going to go third.

1741
01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:30,320
I'm a gold.

1742
01:18:30,620 --> 01:18:33,620
Nothing's ever going to touch touch punt his first comeback

1743
01:18:33,620 --> 01:18:42,720
nothing outside of MJF was to debut at WrestleMania cost

1744
01:18:42,720 --> 01:18:47,120
Cody the match right like something astronomical for that

1745
01:18:47,120 --> 01:18:50,320
to touch the last dance or the first dance thing they caught

1746
01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:50,520
it.

1747
01:18:51,420 --> 01:18:56,020
So give me that one first and then I would take the coal

1748
01:18:56,020 --> 01:18:59,520
and Brian combo because we were there live because I just

1749
01:18:59,520 --> 01:19:03,720
remember that feeling of man they have really arrived.

1750
01:19:04,420 --> 01:19:07,420
I'm just the glee in the concessions of walking all of

1751
01:19:07,420 --> 01:19:08,420
us walking to the car.

1752
01:19:08,420 --> 01:19:12,320
We just like yo, what do we just see?

1753
01:19:12,820 --> 01:19:15,320
I can't believe they did that and then I will go Mercedes

1754
01:19:15,820 --> 01:19:19,420
but I would probably say from a perspective of watching

1755
01:19:19,420 --> 01:19:23,020
it and feeling like this can be massive.

1756
01:19:24,120 --> 01:19:24,920
It's number two.

1757
01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:31,420
That is the feeling I have watching it.

1758
01:19:31,720 --> 01:19:34,220
It's just like if they do this, right?

1759
01:19:35,520 --> 01:19:37,220
We know what Mercedes brings to table.

1760
01:19:37,220 --> 01:19:40,620
Hell you brought up her song that's on Apple music.

1761
01:19:41,820 --> 01:19:44,620
If they do like top 20 after the first 24 hours of like

1762
01:19:44,620 --> 01:19:49,420
all songs fan base is like that big near that, you know,

1763
01:19:49,420 --> 01:19:50,220
rabbit for her.

1764
01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:52,220
It's not that good.

1765
01:19:52,220 --> 01:19:52,820
It's okay.

1766
01:19:52,820 --> 01:19:55,820
But the top 20 don't get us cancer of all this shit that

1767
01:19:55,820 --> 01:19:58,920
we said don't get us cancer because you said her song is

1768
01:19:58,920 --> 01:19:59,620
just okay.

1769
01:19:59,620 --> 01:20:00,720
Hey, I'll be honest with you.

1770
01:20:00,720 --> 01:20:01,620
I won't get over.

1771
01:20:01,620 --> 01:20:02,920
I went to talk about the song.

1772
01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:05,320
I don't want to I want to go and do it.

1773
01:20:05,320 --> 01:20:07,720
I'm like, we all agree.

1774
01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:12,620
We all agree that is what is known need not be said.

1775
01:20:15,520 --> 01:20:18,820
Hey, but we can't but we can't talk about next week is

1776
01:20:18,820 --> 01:20:22,820

1781
01:20:29,720 --> 01:20:30,920

01:20:30,920 --> 01:20:34,220
We got the ROH TV Women's Championship.

1783
01:20:34,520 --> 01:20:35,120
Yes.

1784
01:20:37,020 --> 01:20:38,420
I thought you talked about the tag team.

1785
01:20:39,420 --> 01:20:40,120
No, baby.

1786
01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:43,120

Oh, come on.
