1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:14,800
I'm sitting there watching Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia being garcy

2
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:19,280
be flipping through that flipping through play off basketball.

3
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:20,840
Watch that all day on Saturday.

4
00:00:22,080 --> 00:00:23,280
What else is watching on Saturday?

5
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:24,280
I think that might have been it.

6
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:25,840
I hop on Twitter.

7
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,640
Broken Matt Hardy's back in impact.

8
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,680
What did not see that coming?

9
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:40,880
What y'all think about Matt Hardy going back to impact under his broken Matt persona?

10
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,880
And I guess he showed up like at the end of the show and then he won the title.

11
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,640
I still got to do some research on it.

12
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:54,240
But yo, I saw he was back in impact and then I saw he's already holding championship gold.

13
00:00:54,240 --> 00:01:00,400
So yeah, there's big news.

14
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:01,280
Our DNA last night.

15
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,520
Yeah, I didn't even know that this was even a thing.

16
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:08,720
His contract was set.

17
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,240
His contract been up for a little bit.

18
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:17,120
He said he was talking to both WWE and AEW, of course, being the professional that he is.

19
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,120
Didn't want to stooge off.

20
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,040
He was going to AEW or impact.

21
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,400
But that's where he's at.

22
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,480
So I think I'm happy for him, of course.

23
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,800
But I also think I'm happy that he's no longer on AEW TV.

24
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:38,320
And if WWE didn't have a defined spot for him and or Jeff, I'm good with him not being there either.

25
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:40,960
You say he's still a Phrygian too.

26
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:42,640
Oh, really?

27
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:43,360
Yeah.

28
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:44,400
He's still what?

29
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,560
You know, because Nick is on a Phrygian contract too.

30
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,560
He's not necessarily locked in.

31
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:51,040
True.

32
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,720
I think, yeah.

33
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,600
It's a lot of their bigger guys are free to sign elsewhere.

34
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,360
Ernie, your girl, Tessa, she back.

35
00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:01,120
She debuted last night too.

36
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:02,320
I saw there was some talks about it.

37
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:02,640
I didn't.

38
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:02,960
Okay.

39
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:04,080
So she did debut.

40
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,120
I saw Friday that there was some talks with Tessa.

41
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:08,560
And that.

42
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:09,440
Y'all think she's still racist?

43
00:02:10,640 --> 00:02:10,880
No.

44
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,600
I think that even if she wanted to be, she can't.

45
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,000
After she was dragged through the mud.

46
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,160
She had low key races?

47
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:19,360
No.

48
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,760
I don't think she had any more racism in any war.

49
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,120
She was baptized out of the racism.

50
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:30,560
You got deleted?

51
00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:31,760
She was a very conflicted woman.

52
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:31,920
Right.

53
00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:32,800
Because she was racist.

54
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,200
She was married to a married to and then cheated on a Mexican man.

55
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:38,640
Like, right?

56
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,200
Hey, I hope that this turns a page for her.

57
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,080
Because she's young, man.

58
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:42,960
She's 30 yet.

59
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,000
She's still racist too, right, folks?

60
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:44,720
No.

61
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,440
And she's somebody who had the industry or could have had the industry by the laws.

62
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,800
So, yeah, to that point, y'all gotta stop being racist, man.

63
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,520
Y'all be okay out here.

64
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:58,000
Just stop.

65
00:02:58,640 --> 00:03:00,720
That's Michael Jordan said a long time ago.

66
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:01,200
Stop it.

67
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:01,760
Get some help.

68
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,120
Hey, you know, and she not only was she a point in races, right?

69
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:07,280
Jordan said that.

70
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:10,160
Yeah, but still the same.

71
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,560
But, you know, she was a, the girls didn't like her in a locker room too.

72
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,040
So hopefully, you know what I'm saying?

73
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,920
She's got her attitude together and she can make a resurgence.

74
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:21,760
Absolutely.

75
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:21,920
Absolutely.

76
00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:22,720
And if not, oh, whoa.

77
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:25,200
That's who I guess.

78
00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:26,160
Yeah.

79
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:27,760
Who cares?

80
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,400
Episode 127 of the TFW podcast.

81
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:31,680
That's freaking wrestling.

82
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,320
Best kept secret in wrestling podcast.

83
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,840
I ain't even host Matt joined by my usual suspects through the hard way.

84
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,120
Rodisha and Ishaan.

85
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:45,040
I was on, like, I think I hit, I was on all of our socials last few days.

86
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,440
So on Friday, I go on Instagram.

87
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,280
I haven't logged in to Instagram.

88
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,400
I think since we like launched it, it typically like puts the links up and all that kind of stuff,

89
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:59,440
So I'm on there and I see like in our notifications, there's like 300 plus notifications.

90
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,520
Now, let me just go in and look at what's going on over here.

91
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:10,080
The Avengers style ending that I talked about a couple months ago, we put that on Instagram.

92
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,240
That thing has 87,000 views on it.

93
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:14,720
Holy.

94
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:20,000
So shout out to everybody who has interacted, engaged in any of our videos on social media,

95
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,400
but particularly that one, that one blew up.

96
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,680
And of course, there were hundreds of comments that I never saw.

97
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,880
So I had a fun time on Friday just anybody who said I was dumb.

98
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,480
So it was a horrible idea.

99
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,360
Said this is why W2B sucks.

100
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:39,680
I had a really good time on Friday just going in those comments and either leaving like a

101
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,320
smirk emoji or asking them how their day was.

102
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:43,680
Things of that nature.

103
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,680
I just wanted to know, you know, but I was right on that.

104
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:53,840
So I haven't heard anybody who watched that in good faith and said it sucked.

105
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,960
So thanks for interacting though.

106
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,160
Thanks for engaging with us.

107
00:04:58,160 --> 00:04:58,960
We appreciate you.

108
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,960
That's that's F and W on Instagram.

109
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,560
That's F and W on X.

110
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,000
That's freaking wrestling on TikTok.

111
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,760
That's freaking wrestling on YouTube.

112
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:07,360
That is our socials.

113
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,640
Once again, we thank you guys for being along with us.

114
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:15,360
We got a nice little show for you guys today.

115
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,960
So on Wednesdays pod, we're podding, we're podding, podding our asses off, right?

116
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:22,320
We're in the zone killing it.

117
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:27,200
We go over dynasty like, man, and it wasn't until that was a big hit.

118
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,520
And it wasn't until that was a legit reaction at the end of our podcast

119
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,560
where I'm sitting here and I'm just like, y'all, we could have just done this breakdown on Sunday.

120
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,560
We would have seen dynamite.

121
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:40,320
Collision would have happened.

122
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:40,720
I'll go home.

123
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:47,680
We would have had a legit true dynasty preview opposed to our dynasty preview that had no

124
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,480
go home shows attached to it.

125
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:50,720
Sorry.

126
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:51,440
So that's on us.

127
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:52,080
That's on me.

128
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:52,880
My bad.

129
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:58,160
But these two did not tell me or say, hey, y'all, you know, we could talk about this on Sunday, right?

130
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,400
It is Sunday now.

131
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,560
My math was a math and so I didn't know what day was.

132
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:11,520
So I guess my question about dynasty is has your thoughts changed at all since

133
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,720
dynamite happened, since collision happened, of course, rampage happened too.

134
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,520
Hey, shout out to what is it?

135
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,760
Cool hand and Ruby Soho expecting a spectacular kid.

136
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,080
So congrats to those two love birds.

137
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:29,040
Oh, that was cool to see any different, any different thoughts.

138
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:34,720
I think maybe my different thought honestly is I think I had it at a three as excitement level.

139
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,320
You're probably up to like four and a half out of what out of 10.

140
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:41,680
So yeah, out of 10.

141
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:42,880
Yeah.

142
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:49,040
Um, first off, you know, I'm such a mush for that stuff when we saw Ruby and

143
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,120
Angelo whole interaction that just made me feel so warm and fuzzy inside.

144
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,960
So that and they're not even on the show.

145
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:56,480
That's going to give me an extra half a point.

146
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,160
And then Brian, great, no, that helly skill.

147
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,400
And then Brian here is that long?

148
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,960
And then a email was like, well, that's probably because that's the last time you've seen them.

149
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,160
Is here with her.

150
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,120
I was like, she talked more about his hair length than anything else on collision.

151
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:19,520
I'm like, you know what man, if we're talking about hair length and not anything else.

152
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:22,880
Because of that action, but take a point back and we have a point back because

153
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,960
I'm sitting here trying to grow my hair and Brian James in here could just grow like overnight.

154
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:28,720
Actually, I'm going to take that point back.

155
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:30,560
So I'm still at 10.

156
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,120
1514.

157
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,080
No, no, no, but for real excitement level, I'm probably at a seven.

158
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,480
I mean, it's the Sunday night ones is kind of tough.

159
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:45,760
She got to go to work in the next morning.

160
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,640
Man, if we can have these Saturdays, it would just be probably eight just think about like

161
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,480
the UFC's the boxing fights, the half of the boxing fights and UFC fights that come up.

162
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:58,240
I maybe only know half of the people, but it's still exciting because the Saturday night

163
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,080
to watch this pay per view.

164
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,920
But I'm probably about a seven.

165
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:09,920
You know, Brian's hair, actually the top has been very long for a number of years now.

166
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,280
Because I don't think he used a lot of extensions for those braids.

167
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,480
He doesn't have top because you know, he had the man bun for a long time.

168
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,840
So that his hair at the top was always very, very long.

169
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,400
But he also might get that miracle growth too.

170
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,040
At his age, we need that.

171
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,840
I might need to hit him up on IG this to get some hair growth tips.

172
00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:31,520
Yeah.

173
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,600
I don't know what was that last last week?

174
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,040
You were low too.

175
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:36,640
Was I at three?

176
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:38,400
I'm at 3.5.

177
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,720
Okay. So you would have a point too.

178
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:41,360
All right.

179
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,400
Man, 3.5.

180
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:44,880
But you know guys, when I'm a little...

181
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:47,600
Are you guys surprised?

182
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,080
I know you guys don't look at the ratings for these shows anymore.

183
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,400
But do you notice how low the Go Home show for Dynamite was?

184
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,400
And were you surprised by that?

185
00:08:57,680 --> 00:08:58,480
Not really.

186
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,240
I didn't pay attention to the rating at all.

187
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:00,960
Like I saw it hit.

188
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,640
Excuse me, but I haven't looked at ratings honestly.

189
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:08,480
And like last show that I paid attention to was just the Raw after Mania

190
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,400
because I just wanted to see what that excitement level when the intrigue was.

191
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,040
And that's when I saw they did 3 million in that first segment.

192
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:15,760
I haven't looked at them.

193
00:09:16,560 --> 00:09:18,320
I just think they are where they are right now, right?

194
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:20,000
I was watching...

195
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,360
So I was watching Dynamite.

196
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,600
And Dynamite was a really good show.

197
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:24,080
It was.

198
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,040
It was a really good show.

199
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,920
And I was like, okay, that's a good show.

200
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:30,400
And it was a good Go Home show.

201
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:39,120
But AW Steel is like that incredible indie promotion.

202
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:44,000
And not indie is like not professional or not pro, not like that.

203
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:52,320
Like anybody who goes to indies like consistently or is an avid independent wrestling fan,

204
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:54,880
you're going to the shows for the matches.

205
00:09:54,880 --> 00:10:00,160
Because there is no storyline a lot of times, right?

206
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:05,600
Like you got your month of build for this show and these are the matches.

207
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:06,720
And then that's what it is.

208
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,200
And this for me, AW is a lot like that.

209
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:13,120
Like I think their hardcore fans love independent wrestling.

210
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,080
And I love independent wrestling, but it's completely different than...

211
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,240
I hate, here we go with this comparison.

212
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,480
So I'm trying not to compare WWE and AW.

213
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,800
Because I know we do that a lot just as wrestling fans.

214
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:27,120
Like if we talk about one, we automatically look at the opposite spectrum on the other.

215
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:31,440
But I think I have to kind of compare and use an analogy to what you just asked me to eat.

216
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,600
And like the perfect example was on SmackDown.

217
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,440
We had Tamatanga show up a week ago.

218
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,560
And it really didn't do much to explain like who he was.

219
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,400
Which, you know, usually WWE will hit you with a video package, all that kind of stuff.

220
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:45,920
Maybe numerous video packages.

221
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:46,720
We didn't really get that.

222
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,160
We just got his reveal.

223
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:49,120
Saw he's a badass.

224
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:49,360
Cool.

225
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:54,720
This week on SmackDown, they're looking for Kevin Owens strictly because Kevin Owens

226
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,280
kind of laughed at him last Friday and was like,

227
00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:58,640
look, this is not y'all like room no more.

228
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,080
Y'all go down the hallway.

229
00:11:01,680 --> 00:11:09,840
What AW would have done is through the initial interaction between KO and Tama

230
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:16,960
or the bloodline last Friday, we would have gotten a match this week on AWTV.

231
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,160
Tama vs KO.

232
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:23,840
So when I talk about a lot of AW needs to do better at writing television,

233
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,440
this is the perfect example.

234
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,600
Then you throw in this week on SmackDown.

235
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:28,720
And what do you get?

236
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:33,440
You get a beatdown segment from Tama to KO.

237
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,000
That's the television part.

238
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,000
Now, if you want to run that match at back last, I don't think it's gonna be a back last.

239
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,240
But if you want to run that back last, you want to run that SmackDown,

240
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,560
you want to run it at Raw, you've given me a reason to be invested in the opposed to the K-pop.

241
00:11:46,560 --> 00:11:50,560
The reason to be invested in the opposed to the guy shows up, he's already magically getting a match.

242
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:57,120
So long with an answer, I just think they are where they are currently.

243
00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:03,200
And I think those are the tidbits they have to add into their show to increase week to week viewership.

244
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:04,480
You know what, Tama?

245
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,560
I never pay the ratings.

246
00:12:06,560 --> 00:12:06,880
I know.

247
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,120
Yeah, you kind of stay offline for most part anyway.

248
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,480
Nothing wrong with that though, because not everybody is online like that.

249
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,640
A good portion of wrestling fans aren't online, you know, checking for things like that.

250
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:17,360
Nothing wrong with that.

251
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,880
But twin though, I thought about AW, I'm like, it reminds me of an indie show.

252
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:24,160
Right?

253
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,920
And so why do we go to indie shows?

254
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:26,160
Right?

255
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,280
Because not typically because we just want to see wrestling matches, right?

256
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:30,560
Without context.

257
00:12:30,560 --> 00:12:35,600
Like usually just like a star or two on the show, you're like, oh shoot, that guy's on the show.

258
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,120
Let me go check them out, right?

259
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:39,760
You go to the show.

260
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:45,520
Now, if that same star with no context, no storyline shows a very weak, you kind of already seen

261
00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:47,840
what you wanted to see, right?

262
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,920
So you may not go the next week to that show, right?

263
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,720
The investment might not be there for that show.

264
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,560
That's what happens a lot of times with AW.

265
00:12:56,560 --> 00:12:58,320
Because it's just startling for me, right?

266
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:05,280
Because their rating was about 6,762,000 for Dynamite on a go home show, right?

267
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,960
The previous week with the punk footage, they're at like 820.

268
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,960
They lost about 60,000 viewers, right?

269
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:14,960
Which those people should be tuning in.

270
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:18,480
Because typically the go home show is the big show you want to see what's going to pop off.

271
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,480
You want to get that lead in for the pay-per-view.

272
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,240
So that's just showing like the overall engagement is just going down, right?

273
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:30,080
We had the big show, big business with Mercedes, popped a huge rating initially,

274
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:31,840
and then died down over the course of the show.

275
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,360
Had a little bit of lifting this week, died down.

276
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:40,640
It just seems like right now the curiosity factor for a lot of things involved are missing on AW.

277
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,400
And it feels like right now the people who watch the show are the people who are watching the show.

278
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:45,680
Like, right?

279
00:13:45,680 --> 00:13:49,760
I don't know what they can do to boost engagement.

280
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:50,720
But let me just say this though.

281
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:54,640
I hope that on this next deal that Tony's negotiating, they did get like a billion dollars.

282
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:59,600
He gets that 1.2 billion for the shows.

283
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:06,240
Hopefully, depending on how he does your schedule with SmackDown and Raw on Netflix,

284
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,600
we can get collision up during the week, right?

285
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,720
So I can get more invested in that show because I'm not watching on weekends.

286
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:13,920
That's like a death sentence.

287
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,440
And hopefully AW can get that.

288
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,040
They can move an Uber, their schedule.

289
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,320
They can get ROH.

290
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,760
Maybe if TBS doesn't want them, maybe it can go somewhere else.

291
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:24,640
We can watch that.

292
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:26,560
That would be the best case scenario.

293
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:31,200
But I just don't see once they get that billion dollar deal that they're,

294
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:32,320
I think that's something to get.

295
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,240
I don't think that we're going to see much of a change.

296
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,760
I think the show and the company is what it is.

297
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:39,440
Just period.

298
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,040
You mentioned the comparison.

299
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:48,080
I think probably the best comparison for me outside of using like movies and that kind of stuff is

300
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:54,240
a healthy dating relationship is AW and a healthy marriage is WWE.

301
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,000
They both have their pros and cons.

302
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:56,880
And they're just different.

303
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,960
The relationship is just completely different.

304
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,360
And it really hit my head because Matt, when you had mentioned that

305
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:03,680
AW was like the indies.

306
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,960
And again, no disrespect in any way because it's not disrespectful to say that.

307
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,080
But you're right.

308
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:12,560
Every independent show that I've even went to as a fan or worked as a fan,

309
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,360
I've loved all matches.

310
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:16,560
They're great shows.

311
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,320
And it almost feels like I don't have to have a commitment to you because one,

312
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,480
I really can't because I'm next month.

313
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,800
If I see you again, it's probably not going to be the same people.

314
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,080
Like he said, you might get one or two of the champ who's a star,

315
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:29,600
but it's constantly changing.

316
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,160
So it's like having a healthy, fun dating life.

317
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:32,720
And it's fun.

318
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:37,520
There's no extra like responsibilities to it or commitments.

319
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,120
But then that marriage is AW.

320
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,400
And if you have a healthy marriage,

321
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,840
so much more things that you can do and build and grow together.

322
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,320
So that just kind of hit the nail on the head for me.

323
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:50,880
And I actually am kind of at this point done comparing the two because they are two totally different.

324
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,000
They are just totally different.

325
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,080
Yeah, like I don't even think it's like Coke or Pepsi.

326
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,240
No, like I think I think it's like

327
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,920
Coke in like Velveeta cheese or something.

328
00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:00,560
You know what I'm saying?

329
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,800
Like, yeah, you you ingest both.

330
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,280
Yeah, for whatever particular reason,

331
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:09,200
but they are just completely different products, you know, for sure.

332
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,360
And that's great though, because we that's what we need.

333
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:16,640
Because if they were trying to be a second rate WWE, that would fail even worse.

334
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,640
Because I got WWE and they're clicking right now on almost all cylinders.

335
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,680
I don't definitely need a second rate anything WWE.

336
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:25,360
So I think that's where we are.

337
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:31,120
But so you're saying that Rodisha is like AW is like that that that girl guy that you hook up with occasionally.

338
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:32,160
You know, it's healthy dating.

339
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:33,920
So I'm just like a healthy dating lifestyle.

340
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,800
Like, hey, I'm going out on dates every week or every month.

341
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:37,680
That's what it is.

342
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:38,880
There's really no commitments.

343
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,400
You don't get to really know me that deep.

344
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:44,720
So I'm not going to tell you my whole story and how my papa died and how my mama's from another country.

345
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,720
I'm going to tell you all that because it's just dating.

346
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:47,520
It's just fun.

347
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,800
I don't know if I'm going to see you next month.

348
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:55,200
Hey, but you know those type of relationships, you move on somebody else real quick with them people too.

349
00:16:55,200 --> 00:17:03,040
Like I wish that yeah, we don't want AW to be a calling to the I don't think it's ever going to be that long as Tony Tony kind is promoting that show.

350
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:12,960
I just wish the AWs, I just hope for them they become more like the NWA or the WSW.

351
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:16,400
Those shows were very different than WWE, especially at the time, right?

352
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:20,960
But they had a committed long term audience for most of its existence, right?

353
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:28,640
Like NWA, WSW, they had millions of people who specifically just watch sometimes a NWA and WCW, right?

354
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:34,720
They had a long term committed audience that thrive an audience that just loved their show.

355
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:35,520
And it was a great show.

356
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:36,400
It was a great alternative.

357
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,120
I watched both of them very different, right?

358
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:51,040
But my only concern for AEW is that we see from the arena, the buys, the ratings, all the different engagements that this is, it's just slowly taking down month after month.

359
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:58,640
Like right at this point, they're in a they're in a community where people are just like, I'll see you every now and then.

360
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,400
They need to get more of a commitment from their fan base and needs to grow.

361
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:11,840
So dynasties tonight and I'm more excited.

362
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,880
I'm going to be more excited after the show than I am going into the show.

363
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,760
And that's because I know the show's going to deliver.

364
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:24,960
We hope to see swerve be crowned as champion, which is time for not overdue, but it's time for that.

365
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:30,680
I think we get some story progression and some of these other matches because almost every matches for the titles

366
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:35,700
Right, some title except for Brian and yeah, yeah, and we know what they're gonna do

367
00:18:35,700 --> 00:18:40,680
They're gonna deliver a hell of a match. So hey one last thing we got school to back down in a second

368
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:44,100
I got kind of irritated look at that collision car. I wasn't gonna watch it man. I'm Saturday night

369
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,960
but we had the elite young bucks and

370
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,860
Okada versus Pac and FTR

371
00:18:51,860 --> 00:18:57,700
Mm-hmm. That's a Vince McMahon move right right before the show you just give away the combatants

372
00:18:57,700 --> 00:19:01,960
We get to see them at fisticuffs doing some spots and wrestling and matches

373
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,900
You know, you don't hold them off at least before pay now

374
00:19:04,900 --> 00:19:07,740
You want to give us that match like on next dynamite?

375
00:19:08,060 --> 00:19:14,200
But the show the day before the pay-per-view you give me all six of those guys in the ring

376
00:19:14,820 --> 00:19:16,820
Yeah

377
00:19:16,820 --> 00:19:22,140
I haven't seen it. I don't see that already. Yeah, I think I think that actually may do the opposite

378
00:19:22,140 --> 00:19:24,140
I know you got to put on good content

379
00:19:24,180 --> 00:19:29,440
But the thing about it and like we know that they do their best to give us the best show every single week

380
00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,980
I was close to coming on here a few weeks ago and I kept

381
00:19:32,540 --> 00:19:38,340
Pushing it back kept pushing it back to the point where it just fell off of my docket to even want to bring up to you guys

382
00:19:39,260 --> 00:19:42,460
The week after Mercedes debut I

383
00:19:42,460 --> 00:19:47,980
Was going to ask you guys or make a statement of

384
00:19:48,980 --> 00:19:50,980
AW has had

385
00:19:51,500 --> 00:19:54,980
Bigger and better moments in the last four years and don't be has

386
00:19:56,180 --> 00:19:58,180
And I still think that's the case

387
00:19:58,860 --> 00:20:02,900
But when you're out of that moment, it's really really hard to

388
00:20:03,620 --> 00:20:08,220
Have that argument like I think about everything they've given us moment wise

389
00:20:08,220 --> 00:20:12,740
We got the combination of Cole and Brian debuting within like a minute and a half of each other

390
00:20:12,740 --> 00:20:14,740
That is a top tier moment

391
00:20:14,740 --> 00:20:16,180
Mercedes

392
00:20:16,180 --> 00:20:19,340
That's a top tier moment like we can just go down

393
00:20:20,180 --> 00:20:24,660
Every single time we've gotten one of those moments and it's like and that's why we always say that all here comes the turning point

394
00:20:24,660 --> 00:20:26,660
Fray De because those moments are so great

395
00:20:27,340 --> 00:20:31,420
But then it's the follow-up that is like severely lacking like right now. I can't bring up

396
00:20:31,420 --> 00:20:33,620
She's still not clear yet to wrestle

397
00:20:33,620 --> 00:20:39,940
But I can't bring that up now of like how big of a moment that was for Mercedes to arrive at AW and

398
00:20:40,420 --> 00:20:47,740
To give that promo and how she just came across as a major star when there's not much attached to it a month later

399
00:20:48,140 --> 00:20:51,820
So maybe that's something we can table in the next time they have a massive moment

400
00:20:51,820 --> 00:20:55,860
We can follow back up on that but that they give us moments

401
00:20:55,860 --> 00:20:58,380
It's just a follow-up on it because a show that

402
00:20:59,780 --> 00:21:01,780
Did not have Mercedes Ocata

403
00:21:01,780 --> 00:21:03,780
I

404
00:21:04,340 --> 00:21:10,020
Spray under contract on their last pay-per-view and yet Mercedes is not wrestling on this show

405
00:21:10,020 --> 00:21:12,020
But she is tied to a really important storyline

406
00:21:13,460 --> 00:21:15,460
viewership and

407
00:21:15,460 --> 00:21:22,940
Byrates and overall fan interest should be much higher than what is for tonight's show same as last quarter eight real quick

408
00:21:24,340 --> 00:21:29,820
We we say we're getting some sponsors on the show sooner or later. I want to sponsor this tea

409
00:21:29,820 --> 00:21:34,620
I gotta find out the name of it really fast. It's like some kind of focus tea. Let me say I am such

410
00:21:34,980 --> 00:21:41,740
So hyper right now. I'm like in the zone. You were talking to me man. Let me say I was tunneling. I was down in man

411
00:21:42,260 --> 00:21:47,100
You was like them the videos where you actually can see the closed caption you will see my words

412
00:21:47,100 --> 00:21:50,820
Oh my god, man. I was in the zone. I should start smiling. I'm like, man

413
00:21:50,820 --> 00:21:54,180
I am so zone in on him right now like oh my god

414
00:21:54,180 --> 00:22:00,540
I feel great right now man. So we started to have a conversation started to ask you guys like hey

415
00:22:00,540 --> 00:22:07,460
Is Mercedes just another wrestler for a w not in the sense of like she's just a gal on the roster, but

416
00:22:08,140 --> 00:22:10,660
Much like Soraya. I was like, okay, I'm gonna say it's gonna be a

417
00:22:11,220 --> 00:22:14,900
Diverse maker for that promotion. She's going to increase another she's going to buy

418
00:22:15,300 --> 00:22:20,580
People are going to be watching show to see her because she has that type of charisma. That's a type of personality

419
00:22:20,580 --> 00:22:25,580
However, when you look at these ratings from the big business to where they are now

420
00:22:25,740 --> 00:22:27,900
They're doing the same ratings that they were doing

421
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:32,900
Before she got there like right when you look at like her segment engagement

422
00:22:32,900 --> 00:22:37,380
It's kind of same segment engagement. They were getting previously and I don't think that's her fault

423
00:22:37,380 --> 00:22:40,340
I think it's the way these shows are structured. I think that

424
00:22:41,060 --> 00:22:42,540
last week's

425
00:22:42,540 --> 00:22:46,700
Thing with pump that turns the people off, you know, did you guys see the interview with Tony Khan?

426
00:22:46,700 --> 00:22:53,020
I mean, I bet we got a lot of our viewers. They don't like a w either. Well, I do like a w but they don't like a

427
00:22:53,020 --> 00:22:56,100
W they're probably not for listening right. He said either you showed your hand. It's okay, man

428
00:22:56,100 --> 00:23:01,600
It's cool for you. Look your guy Cody one at Mania. You do not have to be the a w correspondent

429
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:07,420
Well, here's here's the you get a lot of we look at that right there. Hey, I've said it before the a w roster

430
00:23:07,420 --> 00:23:10,480
I think has more of my favorites on it then WWE to be honest with you

431
00:23:10,500 --> 00:23:14,140
Like when you guys compare the rosters, yeah, and I'd be interesting thing to do one day

432
00:23:14,140 --> 00:23:18,500
We look at the rosters you break it down. I'll admit for me personally

433
00:23:18,500 --> 00:23:22,460
There's so many like favorites I have on that roster, but yeah, I did I definitely misspoke

434
00:23:22,460 --> 00:23:24,460
It wasn't a footy and split at all

435
00:23:25,260 --> 00:23:29,500
We know don't worry about it. What is it? We're writing that down though. So let's do that on Wednesday show

436
00:23:29,500 --> 00:23:31,500
Maybe maybe we take what the top?

437
00:23:32,420 --> 00:23:34,420
Top 10 top 15

438
00:23:34,460 --> 00:23:35,860
singles wrestlers

439
00:23:35,860 --> 00:23:43,740
But I talked about this stuff before even on a woman's side too mainly that we as a unit agree that we actually like

440
00:23:44,060 --> 00:23:48,020
More people over in a w it's just been the actual product

441
00:23:48,020 --> 00:23:52,880
It's just the way they're used. Yeah, it's a lot of change though, right? Because that was before

442
00:23:53,500 --> 00:23:55,500
Rumble that was before many that's

443
00:23:56,060 --> 00:23:58,060
Yeah, so like

444
00:23:58,180 --> 00:24:02,860
Let's do that. Let's do that on Wednesday show just just to see it. Hey, it's draft season. So yeah, why not?

445
00:24:02,860 --> 00:24:05,700
Maybe we can even turn to something like a little mini-draft or something. We do that

446
00:24:06,500 --> 00:24:11,580
But speaking of high wrestlers man, go ahead. Let's talk about a I want to get I don't know what you have planned man

447
00:24:11,580 --> 00:24:13,900
But I want to get it so low man because I was really

448
00:24:15,340 --> 00:24:20,000
That tea is talking to you go ahead sir. Go lead. I lay out go ahead man. Look at him

449
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:25,580
He's taking another. Oh, I was prepared for this for me to lead the solo. Hey, you just saw my words

450
00:24:26,020 --> 00:24:28,020
You ain't gotta be prepared man

451
00:24:28,020 --> 00:24:30,340
I'm gonna be from the heart. You got it

452
00:24:30,780 --> 00:24:33,460
Well, you know what? I'm definitely focusing on listening to you

453
00:24:33,460 --> 00:24:38,820
But I definitely forgot what I was talking about because I don't know what I was just talking about or going like just five minutes ago

454
00:24:38,820 --> 00:24:41,700
So maybe I can only listen. I can't think at the same time

455
00:24:42,780 --> 00:24:45,260
Yeah, I can't parking water tax right now. I guess

456
00:24:46,460 --> 00:24:52,540
So solo on snack now. This is the new bloodline by my man came suited and booted. Oh my god

457
00:24:53,140 --> 00:24:55,780
Still when it's thumb wrapped up. He look good too, man

458
00:24:55,780 --> 00:25:00,420
I used to look good too. He look good in that suit. He look good in that role, right?

459
00:25:00,420 --> 00:25:07,980
So we know this is a completely different style of bloodline and what we got with 1.0 with Usos and in Roman

460
00:25:08,100 --> 00:25:12,300
But him and Tanya looking for KO the bloody KO again

461
00:25:12,700 --> 00:25:16,500
Something we had just talked about a couple weeks ago. You're not going to get blood every single week

462
00:25:16,500 --> 00:25:19,300
But when it makes sense when it matters, right?

463
00:25:19,300 --> 00:25:21,620
I don't care if it's a blood capsule or fake blood

464
00:25:21,620 --> 00:25:25,740
No point in cutting yourself if you're backstage, you don't need to see that part of it

465
00:25:25,740 --> 00:25:33,140
but I thought that was great because of you guys took it to that level just because of basically like a joke

466
00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:36,100
Because I had to even think when I saw that I was like

467
00:25:36,100 --> 00:25:38,980
Yeah, you said that you were like, what do you do? I had to think back like oh

468
00:25:39,460 --> 00:25:45,140
Right when they showed up last Friday, he's like, no, it's not your locker room anymore. You guys can go down the hall

469
00:25:45,740 --> 00:25:47,940
Something as small as that. Nenny try to commit murder

470
00:25:47,940 --> 00:25:53,180
Shout out to Rikishi Rikishi ran over Austin years and years and years ago

471
00:25:53,740 --> 00:26:01,300
Tomas ran into KO's rental car and like I was like, oh, hey, do we know do we know that was time?

472
00:26:01,300 --> 00:26:06,660
Well, maybe it was maybe it was Rikishi man. He a bad driver. Maybe it was him, right? Rikishi say I'm getting on this show

473
00:26:08,140 --> 00:26:14,740
He's been trying to get in this bloodline thing for years now man. He finally did it on smackdown

474
00:26:14,740 --> 00:26:18,700
He was behind that wheel. Hey, there was in the back seat. I got this youngins

475
00:26:19,540 --> 00:26:22,660
Boom, he hit that. Yeah for the rock for the rock. Oh, yeah

476
00:26:23,220 --> 00:26:30,980
so what'd you guys think about uh week two of now we kind of can see where tomas pit tomas that bad ass psycho

477
00:26:32,180 --> 00:26:34,580
Peter okay got that now for sure

478
00:26:35,380 --> 00:26:39,220
And you know, we got talking about it my favorite part of the entire segment

479
00:26:39,220 --> 00:26:45,380
My favorite part of the entire show actually my favorite thing since WrestleMania. I've seen of all of television. Oh

480
00:26:46,420 --> 00:26:49,540
What that we want Roman chant? Oh

481
00:26:51,060 --> 00:26:52,740
We are back

482
00:26:52,740 --> 00:26:55,540
My goat what other goat do you know?

483
00:26:56,140 --> 00:26:57,780
Inlegit, right?

484
00:26:57,780 --> 00:26:59,780
What other wrestler?

485
00:27:00,340 --> 00:27:02,940
Has turned face and didn't do anything

486
00:27:03,820 --> 00:27:05,540
Didn't cut a promo

487
00:27:05,540 --> 00:27:10,820
Didn't save somebody at the end of a match didn't do anything that's that speaks to just how

488
00:27:11,460 --> 00:27:16,180
invested we are in this story and the work in just two weeks that Heyman

489
00:27:16,580 --> 00:27:18,580
Tama and solo has done

490
00:27:19,460 --> 00:27:21,460
That you have turned Roman face

491
00:27:21,940 --> 00:27:26,660
And Romans done nothing to be turned face to get a we won Roman chant. We haven't heard that

492
00:27:28,420 --> 00:27:32,100
We would have to go back and look the last time we heard a crowd chant we want Roman

493
00:27:32,100 --> 00:27:36,660
So I thought that was awesome too. I'm like, all right all systems go with that. But overall, what'd you guys think?

494
00:27:37,460 --> 00:27:43,300
When you talk about that part there for the we want Roman, I don't think I've never seen anybody who just turned face just from losing a match

495
00:27:43,940 --> 00:27:48,580
Um, but it I also think that speaks to just the the fans themselves

496
00:27:49,140 --> 00:27:53,380
I don't think they really disliked Roman. They disliked what the bloodline was doing all these years

497
00:27:53,380 --> 00:27:54,900
They just wanted Cody to win

498
00:27:54,900 --> 00:27:56,900
So now that that is out of the way

499
00:27:57,220 --> 00:27:59,220
They can still say hey, I'd rather

500
00:27:59,220 --> 00:28:04,100
Take the devil we know than the devil. We don't know but what I find interesting in this whole thing so far

501
00:28:04,100 --> 00:28:08,980
This is not the second week that solo would not allow Paul Heyman and say that we're a tribal chief

502
00:28:09,700 --> 00:28:13,460
And then the man. Oh, so two fingers up his balloons. Then I find then

503
00:28:14,500 --> 00:28:19,060
We still need to find out what MFT stand for. I know we on the internet have been saying what we think it stands for

504
00:28:19,700 --> 00:28:22,340
his mother fucker Tama, but what is MFT?

505
00:28:23,380 --> 00:28:27,540
Somebody said my family tree, but that doesn't make sense either. It would make sense if you didn't say my

506
00:28:27,540 --> 00:28:30,980
But he said my MFT because then that'll be my my family tree

507
00:28:31,540 --> 00:28:37,620
So maybe it's not how you do. Yeah. I don't know what it means. Yeah, but solo looks good though

508
00:28:38,020 --> 00:28:38,980
um

509
00:28:38,980 --> 00:28:44,900
And it just goes back to I'm thinking about um the interview that we saw or the documentary saw with roman

510
00:28:45,300 --> 00:28:46,660
I mean even

511
00:28:46,660 --> 00:28:49,460
Some other I think interviews I heard woman do

512
00:28:50,180 --> 00:28:54,260
Where he's just talking about I'm doing this to uplift my family

513
00:28:54,260 --> 00:28:59,860
Everything that I'm doing I'm doing this so that now I can give them a chance and give them a chance

514
00:28:59,860 --> 00:29:03,620
And just to think that the solo that we saw last friday

515
00:29:04,660 --> 00:29:07,060
And he's been there. What two years now a year and a half two years

516
00:29:08,340 --> 00:29:10,260
And I just feel like

517
00:29:10,260 --> 00:29:15,620
I don't think he would have gotten this good if he just went the normal trajectory of being called up to the main card

518
00:29:15,940 --> 00:29:21,380
And working working working working like it is something that's so true and valuable in poly we know that too

519
00:29:21,380 --> 00:29:24,820
But to be attached to roman and that he is making these people better

520
00:29:24,980 --> 00:29:29,540
Jimmy's the only one that sounds like the exception to the rule, but I think that's also the character of jimmy, but like

521
00:29:30,580 --> 00:29:34,100
It's like you touch roman and you get better and think about that

522
00:29:34,180 --> 00:29:36,900
We look at your john sienna. We look at rest in peace very white

523
00:29:36,900 --> 00:29:39,620
You look at some of these people who when you touch them and you wrestle with them

524
00:29:39,860 --> 00:29:44,180
You're probably maybe not elevated after them and as these people who's going against roman

525
00:29:44,180 --> 00:29:46,180
He has a thing in the aura to keep his aura

526
00:29:46,180 --> 00:29:50,980
But also to to bring other people up and that that takes a really really

527
00:29:53,220 --> 00:29:58,020
Skill that is almost like divine like it's hard to do that

528
00:29:58,740 --> 00:30:01,380
Well, it's presentation. E like so think about

529
00:30:02,580 --> 00:30:08,420
Solo's presentation. Let's only take presentation. They've done more with solo in the last two weeks and they've done with him in the last four months

530
00:30:08,420 --> 00:30:15,540
Right, but this is all by design and we had talked a lot about jimmy's persona and how he's come across as

531
00:30:16,180 --> 00:30:22,660
A comedy act. He's not being taken serious now. We know in my opinion. Anyway, that was completely done by design

532
00:30:23,220 --> 00:30:28,980
Because that gives you a completely different optic than what tama and solo is going to bring as the head of the bloodline

533
00:30:28,980 --> 00:30:29,940
opposed to

534
00:30:29,940 --> 00:30:33,300
We watched jimmy for comic relief for these last three or four months

535
00:30:33,300 --> 00:30:39,780
So I think it again speaks to the presentation and how they have these people slide it for specific reasons

536
00:30:41,380 --> 00:30:45,940
I love that but you know, you gotta remember jimmy been jimmy for about the past year

537
00:30:45,940 --> 00:30:47,940
They just signed tama a couple months ago

538
00:30:48,500 --> 00:30:52,260
But I love how you can roll all that in because the storyline is there for it, right and

539
00:30:53,300 --> 00:30:57,860
Going back to something um, rodigio said and I was I was tuned in to assist too, but I forgot what she said

540
00:30:58,260 --> 00:31:00,900
But one thing to kind of spark is like a 10 second effect

541
00:31:00,900 --> 00:31:04,340
I do like yeah, yeah, I can only catch it for about 15 20 seconds

542
00:31:04,820 --> 00:31:10,020
But you admit your mission just break in next time. Just start talking next time. We'll lay out like even though I was in

543
00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:14,740
I want I want to see what she was going. I'm like, all right. All right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah

544
00:31:15,380 --> 00:31:16,580
uh

545
00:31:16,580 --> 00:31:18,580
Right, right, but um

546
00:31:18,580 --> 00:31:24,260
For me, uh, what I thought it was like 21. I think I think ease might be a day late on celebrating 420

547
00:31:24,820 --> 00:31:27,460
No, he's right. Forget the name of the tea. What's in your tea?

548
00:31:27,460 --> 00:31:29,460
Blackberry

549
00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:32,500
Okay

550
00:31:32,500 --> 00:31:36,980
Oh, I put a little I put a little cinnamon in that too, man. Just add a little spice to it. Mm-hmm

551
00:31:37,220 --> 00:31:38,180
but

552
00:31:38,180 --> 00:31:40,180
I was thinking about a vintz man right now

553
00:31:41,060 --> 00:31:43,860
The bloodline story started with vintz in charge

554
00:31:45,620 --> 00:31:47,620
Which no vintz likes to get hands on

555
00:31:47,780 --> 00:31:50,180
On like these things especially when it's hot. He likes to get in there

556
00:31:50,180 --> 00:31:54,340
He don't like he ain't like he don't like you just kind of let you do your thing, right?

557
00:31:54,500 --> 00:31:56,500
And I kind of feel like if vintz was still involved

558
00:31:56,500 --> 00:32:00,020
He would have effed this up somehow. He would have tried to change something

559
00:32:00,020 --> 00:32:02,580
He would try to do something to solo or somebody

560
00:32:03,060 --> 00:32:06,100
I don't think we would be getting what we got because I think that they're letting

561
00:32:06,740 --> 00:32:13,140
Roman Paul and everyone who's involved cook like I get I've heard that Michael Hayes is is is heavily involved

562
00:32:13,620 --> 00:32:20,100
A lot of the backstage stuff too. I I think that like triple H less people cook like all right you guys

563
00:32:21,140 --> 00:32:24,340
You got it, right? Whatever resources you need when I support you need

564
00:32:24,340 --> 00:32:28,820
I'm here for you. I'm gonna let y'all cook right whereas I feel like mr.

565
00:32:28,820 --> 00:32:33,140
Man like all right. Let's let me get a couple of your tensils. Let's put a little spice in this

566
00:32:33,460 --> 00:32:36,180
He's trying to get in there and he would have effed it up a little bit, right?

567
00:32:36,260 --> 00:32:38,740
So I think his kudos to trip waste for allowing

568
00:32:39,140 --> 00:32:42,260
No, genius man be genius man, which I think is great

569
00:32:42,580 --> 00:32:45,940
But going back to solo man, I think uh, it really spoke to me

570
00:32:46,500 --> 00:32:51,220
Watching him because I was like man. I like uh, I don't know. He can really be in that lead role

571
00:32:51,220 --> 00:32:55,940
And man, I was wrong man. He looks he came out in that suit when he came on the suit. I knew

572
00:32:56,580 --> 00:33:01,620
It was big business. Yeah, I know he was standing on business on Friday night when I saw him out in that suit

573
00:33:01,620 --> 00:33:04,580
I'm like, oh that man look good and he had nerves to have the thumb tape

574
00:33:04,820 --> 00:33:09,780
So he like he try and tell you that all right. I'm suiting and booted but I'm gonna whoops somebody asked to

575
00:33:09,780 --> 00:33:12,580
I'm still off that action post. Somebody gonna get the thumb

576
00:33:13,060 --> 00:33:15,060
And I love that man. Whoa

577
00:33:15,060 --> 00:33:17,060
Somebody gonna get the thumb. I told you

578
00:33:17,060 --> 00:33:19,060
We getting started early on this Sunday morning

579
00:33:19,060 --> 00:33:22,740
There you go. No pause full go somebody getting that thumb and then

580
00:33:25,220 --> 00:33:28,420
In tomatanga everyone's just playing a role perfectly, right?

581
00:33:28,740 --> 00:33:31,300
Like tomatanga looks like a crazy pit bull out there

582
00:33:31,780 --> 00:33:38,420
Yeah, like don't he he ain't said nothing but he already seems like diabolical like he seemed like he's unhinged

583
00:33:38,900 --> 00:33:43,460
Like and he hasn't said anything his attack. It looks seemed so vicious on these dudes

584
00:33:43,700 --> 00:33:47,540
Like he was giving k.o and jimmy last week the business

585
00:33:47,540 --> 00:33:51,860
Like right like I so didn't really even had to get in there because tom was doing everything man

586
00:33:51,940 --> 00:33:55,220
This this is the first time in a long time where the bloodline

587
00:33:56,180 --> 00:33:59,140
Looks very very vicious like without championships

588
00:33:59,540 --> 00:34:04,900
So two questions for y'all one is tribal chief from the storyline that they've shared with us

589
00:34:05,700 --> 00:34:07,700
And just if you know

590
00:34:07,780 --> 00:34:12,100
Are they the highest of of all of them? That's one and two

591
00:34:12,260 --> 00:34:16,180
I think every week we should do it until it comes out if tribal chief chief is the highest

592
00:34:16,180 --> 00:34:20,100
Who do we think is the tribal chief as of this moment?

593
00:34:20,340 --> 00:34:24,980
Because solo still is presenting himself as someone important

594
00:34:26,020 --> 00:34:28,260
But I'm not willing to say that he's a tribal chief

595
00:34:29,380 --> 00:34:32,500
I still think there's somebody else at work here. The door's still open. Yeah

596
00:34:32,740 --> 00:34:37,060
Yep, I think could be the rock and that he's because this is very important that

597
00:34:37,780 --> 00:34:41,620
He will not let pauli say the tribal chief or even use that word

598
00:34:42,340 --> 00:34:44,340
So who do y'all y'all think?

599
00:34:44,740 --> 00:34:46,100
solo

600
00:34:46,100 --> 00:34:47,780
Who he is?

601
00:34:47,780 --> 00:34:49,780
um, what y'all say

602
00:34:52,660 --> 00:34:54,660
As of today

603
00:34:56,980 --> 00:35:00,260
I think it's the rock pulling the strings. Okay

604
00:35:01,300 --> 00:35:05,300
I agree. I mean it'll be it'll be perfect to kind of slot him in whenever he's going to be back

605
00:35:05,380 --> 00:35:10,660
That's the thing. We don't know when a rock is coming back. What should be cool. Could it be a surprise when he does?

606
00:35:11,300 --> 00:35:13,300
Pop up

607
00:35:13,300 --> 00:35:15,060
Is the highest

608
00:35:15,060 --> 00:35:16,500
I'm sure it is

609
00:35:16,500 --> 00:35:19,300
But his story they can always change it though, right? They can always

610
00:35:20,420 --> 00:35:23,940
We don't know like with the with a high priest did with a tribal chief

611
00:35:24,420 --> 00:35:28,740
I didn't know what a tribal chief was until four years ago when roman mentioned it, right?

612
00:35:28,900 --> 00:35:34,020
I don't know anything by any of that stuff. Actually, you know what? I take my answer back. I don't think it's the rock. I do think it's

613
00:35:35,220 --> 00:35:37,220
solo because I just go back to

614
00:35:37,860 --> 00:35:40,660
Uh, when he showed up it was he was sent from the elders

615
00:35:40,660 --> 00:35:43,460
Oh, unless the elder is the rock

616
00:35:45,060 --> 00:35:47,940
He's like and roman always knew who the elder was

617
00:35:48,740 --> 00:35:52,900
Because like roman never like roman always looked at solo like he was scared of solo

618
00:35:54,100 --> 00:35:55,700
Oh

619
00:35:55,700 --> 00:36:00,340
And he really didn't do that with the rock. He does his issue with rock was I need you to acknowledge me

620
00:36:00,740 --> 00:36:02,740
Like we know who you are, but you need to

621
00:36:03,300 --> 00:36:08,020
Tell everybody who I am and then after rock acknowledged him everything was all good. Yeah as fans

622
00:36:08,020 --> 00:36:13,620
We tried to act like which we wouldn't have made any sense. The rocks don't turn on roman like roman doesn't trust the rock

623
00:36:13,780 --> 00:36:16,180
There was nothing on camera that ever showed that after

624
00:36:17,140 --> 00:36:22,580
Roman told rock to acknowledge him and he did it. So then now I got it. Okay. I'm only taking everything as face value

625
00:36:22,740 --> 00:36:24,340
That's the face value piece of it

626
00:36:24,340 --> 00:36:29,460
That means that there should be nothing that shows that the rock is ahead or over roman now

627
00:36:29,860 --> 00:36:36,180
Just because he lost but solo has always been that guy even night too. He was telling roman do like get up man

628
00:36:36,180 --> 00:36:40,820
Let's go. Let's finish. Yeah, like that that I've never seen like anybody yell at roman. Yeah, right?

629
00:36:40,820 --> 00:36:43,140
Everyone actually kind of worked on eggshells like

630
00:36:43,940 --> 00:36:46,340
So I was telling what to do like hey get your ass up

631
00:36:47,140 --> 00:36:48,740
Finish this out

632
00:36:48,740 --> 00:36:53,220
Like you know what I mean, and then it wasn't like roman wasn't like hey man, you know

633
00:36:54,020 --> 00:36:57,220
Slow your row, right? He's like he's answering. I know

634
00:36:58,580 --> 00:37:00,580
I'm getting up get up faster

635
00:37:01,220 --> 00:37:02,420
right

636
00:37:02,420 --> 00:37:06,980
Did y'all see the story that came out this week about how cody was supposed to win at 39

637
00:37:07,620 --> 00:37:10,340
In the they changed the finish. Yeah, just real quick

638
00:37:10,900 --> 00:37:14,260
Rest of me at 39 cody rose face roman reigns blah blah blah blah blah

639
00:37:14,580 --> 00:37:20,100
Fans were shocked when reigns went on to retain the title thanks to a huge assist from solo. However, that was not always the plan

640
00:37:20,900 --> 00:37:22,900
according to wrestler observer

641
00:37:23,780 --> 00:37:27,300
Cody rose was originally slated to defeat reigns at mania 39

642
00:37:27,300 --> 00:37:32,420
The decision that vince big man and triple h were behind the report says a lot happened behind the scenes

643
00:37:32,900 --> 00:37:37,220
And that all parties agree that delaying cody's big moment a year would be even better

644
00:37:37,860 --> 00:37:39,460
part of the argument

645
00:37:39,460 --> 00:37:44,980
Was that keeping the title reigns for another year would open up a story for jey uso to become a bigger

646
00:37:45,380 --> 00:37:49,220
Single star it is noted that vince made the call but that triple h agreed to it happening

647
00:37:49,540 --> 00:37:53,780
At no point was it considered big man overruling triple h or anything of that nature

648
00:37:53,780 --> 00:37:59,540
So I wanted to bring that up at that point because two things one for it is a to your point of roman saying like hey

649
00:37:59,540 --> 00:38:03,460
This is for me putting all of my family in a better light. This is what this is about

650
00:38:04,180 --> 00:38:08,740
If that's accurate once again, that's wrestling observer. I'm only taking it. Hopefully it's face value number two

651
00:38:09,540 --> 00:38:12,100
That means even more to what I was trying to

652
00:38:12,820 --> 00:38:17,220
lend credence to when chan michael's was on busted open and he made the comment of

653
00:38:18,260 --> 00:38:22,820
If roman says no, it's gonna be really interesting. It's gonna be an uphill battle

654
00:38:22,820 --> 00:38:24,580
I think

655
00:38:24,580 --> 00:38:27,780
Out of I think roman did it for all the right reasons, of course

656
00:38:28,180 --> 00:38:31,140
But I think last year if that report is accurate

657
00:38:31,620 --> 00:38:34,900
Was probably the time that roman kind of flexed his muscle of

658
00:38:35,620 --> 00:38:39,380
This isn't the right call right now. And I think what shan was saying was

659
00:38:39,780 --> 00:38:43,940
What's happened before if roman says again, like I don't think this is the right call

660
00:38:44,020 --> 00:38:48,020
Let me explain you why roman has enough stroke to where maybe they just don't go with it

661
00:38:48,340 --> 00:38:52,020
But I think they really put it taken into an advisement and say well roman isn't saying that

662
00:38:52,020 --> 00:38:55,140
And because they keep talking about this and they haven't been like

663
00:38:55,780 --> 00:39:01,940
Uh really specific and I would love to know what they mean by it whenever they've been talking about roman the last few weeks

664
00:39:01,940 --> 00:39:05,300
Like behind the scenes. It's a lot of he's changed the business forever

665
00:39:06,420 --> 00:39:07,620
on camera

666
00:39:07,620 --> 00:39:09,300
And backstage

667
00:39:09,300 --> 00:39:12,980
And I would just love to know that backstage piece like what do they mean?

668
00:39:12,980 --> 00:39:22,660
He's changed the business forever. They haven't spoke about it. So I just wanted to bring it up. So I thought that was super fascinating

669
00:39:25,380 --> 00:39:29,780
The effects are down now. It's going away. Oh, is he is he down to the brooklyn levels now?

670
00:39:30,820 --> 00:39:34,500
Take a sip. He I actually I might be because I actually I remember what I was gonna say

671
00:39:35,060 --> 00:39:37,060
Really quick about Tony kind

672
00:39:37,060 --> 00:39:39,140
I'll say look he went all the way back. Okay. Yeah

673
00:39:39,140 --> 00:39:43,460
I remember because like for some reason like you brought back breast of man 39 remind me what I was going to say

674
00:39:43,940 --> 00:39:50,100
About five minutes ago. It was a correlation. Did you read the article that uh, Tony kind of said about why he released the footage?

675
00:39:51,140 --> 00:39:53,140
Yes, no, I did not

676
00:39:53,940 --> 00:39:56,580
Well, essentially he was saying that he he he

677
00:39:57,860 --> 00:39:59,620
He know just pushed back

678
00:39:59,620 --> 00:40:02,500
And online didn't like it but it made the network happy

679
00:40:03,220 --> 00:40:08,180
And it created a number and sometimes you got to satisfy and do things for the for the network. There you go

680
00:40:08,180 --> 00:40:12,020
Yeah, but then I thought about I wonder I wonder what the network thinks

681
00:40:12,580 --> 00:40:15,700
Like a week later like you lost 60,000 people and there you go

682
00:40:16,100 --> 00:40:19,140
And and that's why I didn't want to bring it up because I didn't want to feel like we were dog polynomial

683
00:40:19,140 --> 00:40:22,020
But he brought them basically say that ratings are the number one

684
00:40:22,660 --> 00:40:29,540
Indicator like on fan interest and such and it's like well, you don't really truly believe that because typically dynamite loses viewers

685
00:40:29,860 --> 00:40:35,940
After every segment they'll start above a million that first and you can say it's because big bang theory is you know

686
00:40:35,940 --> 00:40:40,020
There's a lot of different reasons or it could be legit a million people are tuning in

687
00:40:41,060 --> 00:40:43,620
Every week for that first 15 minutes to see what you're going to give them

688
00:40:43,700 --> 00:40:47,460
But that number keeps dropping so if that is the case then you would have to say

689
00:40:47,860 --> 00:40:55,060
Somebody would have said at some point like hey, tell me why does this show start off with higher ratings than it always finishes with

690
00:40:55,540 --> 00:41:00,980
So then that has to be there is something with what you're presenting isn't working. That's why I kind of don't believe

691
00:41:00,980 --> 00:41:05,540
He thinks that I think they did it to pop a number. I think they did to be spiteful

692
00:41:06,500 --> 00:41:10,180
But the story just didn't work because even the story that the hardies not the hardest

693
00:41:10,180 --> 00:41:12,260
I'm sorry the bucks are trying to tell with that

694
00:41:13,620 --> 00:41:17,700
And somebody brought up a great point on social media last week and I forgot about it until I saw that

695
00:41:18,980 --> 00:41:20,980
FTR and the bucks

696
00:41:21,380 --> 00:41:22,580
teamed together

697
00:41:22,580 --> 00:41:24,580
The week after all in at all out

698
00:41:24,580 --> 00:41:27,860
Remember that eight man tag and we talked about I was like this is going to be like

699
00:41:27,860 --> 00:41:32,820
I forgot to just mention it. Yeah, I forgot you can't rewrite history of like now

700
00:41:32,900 --> 00:41:35,780
That's the reason why you lost it all in because like your friend like

701
00:41:36,660 --> 00:41:38,660
mm-hmm

702
00:41:38,660 --> 00:41:40,100
I digress

703
00:41:40,100 --> 00:41:42,100
big time um

704
00:41:42,100 --> 00:41:44,980
So I'm a digress too. So the reason why they want to talk about the cody thing

705
00:41:45,700 --> 00:41:47,220
it's because

706
00:41:47,220 --> 00:41:48,900
so in hindsight

707
00:41:48,900 --> 00:41:52,500
Maybe it was the right decision for him not to win right because it was absolutely, you know, it was

708
00:41:52,500 --> 00:41:57,940
We're bad and at the time it's still going to go down as one of the worst things or but what you can do

709
00:41:58,020 --> 00:42:00,020
I would love I would love

710
00:42:00,020 --> 00:42:03,700
Like I said, I would love to there's two things I would love to see

711
00:42:04,980 --> 00:42:08,020
I don't know. I love to see this one thing. I think it'd be an interesting

712
00:42:08,580 --> 00:42:11,380
story if they kind of break down the like the pandemic

713
00:42:12,020 --> 00:42:17,620
Like those pandemic years the mass versus an hour mass use this that whole time period

714
00:42:17,620 --> 00:42:23,220
Like maybe 10 years 15 years now. It kind of is lighting up a little bit because that was a very interesting time period

715
00:42:23,620 --> 00:42:30,260
For the world in our country like the way it was handled people's reaction the infighting etc. The other thing is

716
00:42:31,140 --> 00:42:32,660
like this whole

717
00:42:32,660 --> 00:42:34,660
bloodline and then

718
00:42:34,660 --> 00:42:38,900
Coalage in interjection into it. Like right what happened at 39

719
00:42:40,180 --> 00:42:46,580
How like wrestling is seem like everything is like, you know those things to where I was talking to Matt like sometimes like

720
00:42:46,580 --> 00:42:52,500
God just puts things in place for you and anything's happened for a reason, right? And you think about that last year

721
00:42:53,300 --> 00:42:56,020
like so 39 someone made the change and

722
00:42:56,980 --> 00:43:00,580
Cody's supposed to win but now he's not gonna win right upsets me and Dave the greca

723
00:43:00,900 --> 00:43:03,940
Like I almost stopped me and Dave. We didn't talk about it

724
00:43:03,940 --> 00:43:08,980
But I think we was on the same page in new york and new georgia. We almost stopped watching wwe

725
00:43:09,380 --> 00:43:14,420
Right, right? I don't think David was about to stop watching. No, he said it. He said on the show man. I was right there

726
00:43:14,420 --> 00:43:16,420
Like my idol

727
00:43:16,980 --> 00:43:18,980
My idol Dave the greca

728
00:43:19,060 --> 00:43:21,060
We was we on the same page. So

729
00:43:21,620 --> 00:43:25,700
Then you go into the next year, right? Cody wins that rumble

730
00:43:26,420 --> 00:43:29,060
Right points at roman. I'm coming for your ass

731
00:43:30,740 --> 00:43:32,740
Just to a week later

732
00:43:33,460 --> 00:43:35,460
Nope, I'm giving it to rock

733
00:43:35,460 --> 00:43:37,460
We're gonna get rocking roman

734
00:43:38,100 --> 00:43:41,140
Something happens we get the the cody moment movement. I should say

735
00:43:41,140 --> 00:43:46,900
And now we get a tag team but it seemed like everything happened the way it happened to make a bigger

736
00:43:47,620 --> 00:43:49,220
event for 40

737
00:43:49,220 --> 00:43:53,780
Good 40 end up being one of the biggest manies ever with one of the most

738
00:43:54,500 --> 00:43:56,500
lovable finishes like right

739
00:43:57,220 --> 00:44:03,860
Like you can't like make up what happened like no, Samantha Irvins like her announcement of cody right just the

740
00:44:04,340 --> 00:44:10,020
Emotion you see ricky stark self in the sky box man and you know, they hugging like, you know

741
00:44:10,020 --> 00:44:12,740
You know like like the best thing has happened in the world, right?

742
00:44:12,740 --> 00:44:16,980
And like I don't know if you would get all those same motions with same feeling that same announcement on 39

743
00:44:17,620 --> 00:44:22,180
And I don't know if you get all that without rock it'd be interjecting to the storyline as the final boss

744
00:44:22,820 --> 00:44:24,820
Like all these things

745
00:44:24,900 --> 00:44:26,660
Just changed up and happened

746
00:44:26,660 --> 00:44:31,700
For the better and you can't paint a better picture sometimes like the more organic natural thing

747
00:44:31,940 --> 00:44:33,940
Ordered the things. It's the best thing instead of forcing

748
00:44:34,660 --> 00:44:37,300
A narrative to happen, right or or eat other parts

749
00:44:37,300 --> 00:44:40,340
You can look at it too is that you have people who know what they're doing

750
00:44:40,900 --> 00:44:45,220
And then hey, we need to pivot and let's make it the best pivot possible pivot like a muller, right?

751
00:44:45,540 --> 00:44:50,180
Yeah, because it's still a work and that's so like that's the great thing about wrestling. We were sitting here watching

752
00:44:50,900 --> 00:44:53,700
I think I may have been watching the playing I was watching the play in tournament

753
00:44:54,420 --> 00:44:58,180
Earlier this week or last week and I was sitting there. I was talking to Matt and I was like

754
00:44:59,300 --> 00:45:01,460
Wrestling really is the best of everything

755
00:45:02,340 --> 00:45:05,620
From an art form like a sports art form and I'm like

756
00:45:05,620 --> 00:45:08,660
You watch wrestling say if you could only watch one thing

757
00:45:09,140 --> 00:45:14,820
So, you know, either is wrestling or it's football either is basketball or is UFC either is boxing or it's whatever

758
00:45:15,780 --> 00:45:17,780
Wrestling does everything

759
00:45:18,020 --> 00:45:23,940
Wrestling gives you the soap opera that the the drama it gives you comedy. It gives you music. It gives you sports

760
00:45:24,180 --> 00:45:25,380
It gives you fighting

761
00:45:25,380 --> 00:45:30,580
It basically just gives you all of that and then when you look at something like 40 where you are paid off

762
00:45:31,220 --> 00:45:33,220
Of your investment in your time

763
00:45:33,220 --> 00:45:38,420
And typically you're guaranteed in wrestling, right? Because you don't have to worry about all that match ended in the

764
00:45:39,380 --> 00:45:43,060
First round knockout with 20 seconds all that build up for nothing or man

765
00:45:43,140 --> 00:45:44,100
I thought

766
00:45:44,100 --> 00:45:49,060
X team had a chance and they got blown out by 30 in the first quarter game is already over and we got another hour and a half

767
00:45:49,300 --> 00:45:52,020
Wrestling you know, you're gonna sit down if you get the main event

768
00:45:52,020 --> 00:45:55,620
You're gonna get a great work match and be 20 plus minutes, etc.

769
00:45:55,620 --> 00:46:00,900
Etc. But yeah, man, like I just think that they did an incredible job with 40 like it worked out all the way

770
00:46:00,900 --> 00:46:02,900
It was supposed to and rock

771
00:46:03,540 --> 00:46:05,460
He's not instrumental in that

772
00:46:05,460 --> 00:46:07,460
But if it was one person

773
00:46:08,020 --> 00:46:12,260
That I think you can like point to this say like amen. You really made

774
00:46:13,140 --> 00:46:15,140
This much more special

775
00:46:15,220 --> 00:46:17,220
It was a rock

776
00:46:17,220 --> 00:46:21,300
It was a rock. Did you see did you guys well? I know where did you saw I showed it to you? E. Did you see that video?

777
00:46:22,420 --> 00:46:28,420
That was online. I posted it too of Seth coming into the ring and then in Superman punch and just watching his leg

778
00:46:28,420 --> 00:46:33,780
Just like flying the wind like there's nothing connected in his knee. Oh, I didn't see that

779
00:46:34,580 --> 00:46:36,900
Check that out. Um, actually pull it up now

780
00:46:37,540 --> 00:46:42,420
Lies just so I can get your reaction on it. Just look at I think it's maybe the last video that I tweeted out

781
00:46:42,820 --> 00:46:44,820
But yeah, you see

782
00:46:45,140 --> 00:46:48,340
Seth like kind of limping to get into the ring with the cheer he has

783
00:46:48,980 --> 00:46:53,540
And then Roman Superman punches him and so he sells it and when he his legs go up his right leg

784
00:46:53,540 --> 00:47:00,900
It legit looks like dangling. Yeah, it looked like a broken rubber band and it's like that man. They have word yourself then or

785
00:47:01,780 --> 00:47:03,780
No before that. Hmm

786
00:47:04,020 --> 00:47:06,420
Yeah, because the rock so now we know why the rock came out and said

787
00:47:06,900 --> 00:47:10,180
Seth was the MVP because yeah on screen. You're like, oh, he's MVP because

788
00:47:10,660 --> 00:47:12,420
hell of a match on night one

789
00:47:12,420 --> 00:47:15,780
Hell of a match on night two came in with the shield piece at the main event

790
00:47:15,860 --> 00:47:18,980
But it's like no because he worked with a horrible

791
00:47:19,620 --> 00:47:21,620
Knee injury that he's already had surgery on

792
00:47:21,620 --> 00:47:23,620
But I saw that and I was like

793
00:47:23,620 --> 00:47:25,620
Yeah, yeah

794
00:47:25,620 --> 00:47:29,140
I saw that. Yeah. Yep. Yeah

795
00:47:29,940 --> 00:47:37,060
It just tickles you inside. Yeah, man. It was just flailing flailing in the air. So shout out to Seth, right?

796
00:47:37,780 --> 00:47:42,020
Um, so yeah, so that was that was that uh, what about tag titles?

797
00:47:42,900 --> 00:47:44,500
What'd you guys think?

798
00:47:44,500 --> 00:47:46,900
They look like the one-wing angel ring championship

799
00:47:46,900 --> 00:47:48,900
The one-wing angel

800
00:47:51,460 --> 00:47:54,660
Mute up that's fine because that's easy back. Thank you. All right. Go ahead. See you

801
00:47:55,220 --> 00:47:59,140
Take care. Actually, no, you can't leave yet because I need you to uh speak to

802
00:47:59,860 --> 00:48:03,940
The horrible trash ass decision of the battle royal for the raw women's title

803
00:48:04,420 --> 00:48:08,740
So hold hold hold that hold that peak because you need to pay for your crimes on that

804
00:48:09,780 --> 00:48:11,540
Uh, so e would you think about those tag titles?

805
00:48:11,540 --> 00:48:18,500
Look, I like it. Um, I kind of like that design more than the the built one raw

806
00:48:18,500 --> 00:48:24,020
But again, the raw titles are still upgraded over the the copper the penny titles

807
00:48:24,020 --> 00:48:28,020
I think it's upgraded over the silver red and blue. Um, so

808
00:48:28,340 --> 00:48:31,300
But I do like the tactic. I think it looks

809
00:48:31,780 --> 00:48:35,620
More, um, I think, you know, one thing I don't like about the raw. I don't like the red

810
00:48:35,620 --> 00:48:39,220
I think they made that black. It would have made the gold pop a little bit more

811
00:48:39,220 --> 00:48:42,100
Okay. Um, but I like the classic very classic

812
00:48:42,900 --> 00:48:48,500
Look of the the Smackdown championships and I also love about both championships the name and the look

813
00:48:49,620 --> 00:48:50,660
Is that

814
00:48:50,660 --> 00:48:55,620
When let's say this draft comes up if they need to you know swap the tag team champions

815
00:48:55,620 --> 00:49:01,060
They don't have to do that stupid belt swap thing that's what Becky had to do. Yep, right?

816
00:49:01,060 --> 00:49:06,420
The titles they don't have a raw brand name stuck to them or Smackdown. I think it's

817
00:49:06,420 --> 00:49:09,300
It's more of a universal classic title

818
00:49:09,940 --> 00:49:14,580
Or naming of the title belts. So I love it. I love what tripways done

819
00:49:14,580 --> 00:49:18,980
He's taken off a lot of the old like basic man and Kevin Dunn stuff

820
00:49:18,980 --> 00:49:25,300
Like I don't know what they're doing these belts, but we're getting more classic and I think ultimately I'll get looking titles. I love it

821
00:49:26,500 --> 00:49:28,500
We didn't talk about it on air

822
00:49:29,300 --> 00:49:34,180
Did you you guys saw that they're switching their moniker from sports and entertainment

823
00:49:34,180 --> 00:49:40,180
To pro wrestling, right? I think I did not see that. We talked about that. We talked about that. I think you and I that was one of the changes that

824
00:49:40,500 --> 00:49:45,060
Triple H was talking about is they still may use sports entertainment, but we're going to hear

825
00:49:45,700 --> 00:49:49,620
Pro wrestling much more than we have in like decades in WWE

826
00:49:51,060 --> 00:49:53,060
I

827
00:49:54,100 --> 00:49:59,620
Was to your point about some of what Triple H is doing to kind of like I love that some of those nasty tropes

828
00:49:59,620 --> 00:50:03,540
Yeah, I do love that, but I wonder for people and again, they don't they're not hurting people

829
00:50:03,540 --> 00:50:05,060
They're not hurting for business

830
00:50:05,060 --> 00:50:08,100
But I wonder for those people who don't watch pro wrestling

831
00:50:08,580 --> 00:50:11,940
What I be more apt to watch something that said

832
00:50:12,500 --> 00:50:19,460
Pro wrestling or sports entertainment if I'm somebody who's never watched I probably would be looking for more to sports entertainment

833
00:50:20,100 --> 00:50:23,140
Then pro wrestling, but again, they're not hurting for business. So

834
00:50:23,940 --> 00:50:25,700
But I know I

835
00:50:25,700 --> 00:50:29,780
I feel you on that one. What is it? But you know, I think basic man is always trying to push that sports entertainment

836
00:50:29,780 --> 00:50:34,980
No moniker, but I don't think even the casual wrestling fans fail for it

837
00:50:34,980 --> 00:50:38,500
Like right, this is a lot of things they do fall for but I don't think that they still

838
00:50:39,220 --> 00:50:42,740
Like we always got it. Oh you watch you know, you know that rass on the fake, right?

839
00:50:42,820 --> 00:50:46,020
Yep, they don't say oh, you know that sports entertainment is fake. You know

840
00:50:46,740 --> 00:50:50,900
You know that rass on this fake, right? Like you're like, I've never I've never heard anybody

841
00:50:51,620 --> 00:50:55,540
Call it sports entertainment ever not in a regular conversation. No one, right?

842
00:50:55,540 --> 00:50:58,900
Yeah, and then the sports entertainment came with that negative condensation of

843
00:50:59,860 --> 00:51:03,860
The really bad wwe product that we used to get because what I would get like

844
00:51:04,260 --> 00:51:09,060
Like when I talk to people when we first started the podcast and I was like, oh, you started the podcast. What's it about?

845
00:51:09,460 --> 00:51:14,900
I was about um, you know, we talked wwe and aw. Oh you watch wrestling

846
00:51:15,940 --> 00:51:17,940
I didn't would ever think you watch wrestling

847
00:51:18,180 --> 00:51:23,700
Right, right. They say oh you watch sports entertainment. Oh, wow. I didn't think you watch. No

848
00:51:23,700 --> 00:51:26,740
Is all I so I don't think I don't think that's her. I'm really stuck

849
00:51:27,460 --> 00:51:32,580
But I'm more on the marketing side because when you look at the wwe sports entertainment

850
00:51:34,500 --> 00:51:39,860
In someone who has no idea of any of this and I'm an investor I'm somebody who okay

851
00:51:39,940 --> 00:51:44,980
Should I take my time to watch this sports entertainment sounds more broad than

852
00:51:45,780 --> 00:51:46,980
pro wrestling

853
00:51:46,980 --> 00:51:52,100
I love pro wrestling and I think triple h has done everything he can to identify who he is

854
00:51:52,100 --> 00:51:55,220
And his wwe versus what Vince was

855
00:51:55,460 --> 00:52:01,620
But I'm just looking at it like on the marketing side of on the grand scale of things sports entertainment. I actually I do like it

856
00:52:02,260 --> 00:52:06,020
I actually do. I love that he caught his um wrestler superstars

857
00:52:06,740 --> 00:52:10,660
I I did those are probably two things of that Vince did that I actually really did like

858
00:52:11,220 --> 00:52:16,500
But I'm all for pro wrestling because that's what it is. It's pro wrestling. Um, so at my heart, I love it

859
00:52:17,140 --> 00:52:20,980
So, you know, when I see a girl walk by, you know, I will use

860
00:52:20,980 --> 00:52:24,900
Tushy, right? But when I'm thinking my mind, I said yes

861
00:52:25,700 --> 00:52:32,100
I'll say my mind. That's a big ass, right? So yeah, it's sportsman change. Tushy. I'm saying but we know it's a big ass

862
00:52:32,420 --> 00:52:34,260
We know that's what it is, right?

863
00:52:34,260 --> 00:52:36,260
But I will say this though

864
00:52:36,820 --> 00:52:39,140
I do like the sports entertainment term as well

865
00:52:40,100 --> 00:52:44,340
But I think that wwe and because of nascio Vince

866
00:52:45,300 --> 00:52:47,300
Like we's are almost like circus sole

867
00:52:47,300 --> 00:52:52,820
It's a brand that people identify with so regardless of what they call it

868
00:52:52,980 --> 00:52:56,980
I think that people are buying the wwe and I think initially the moniker that it is

869
00:52:57,140 --> 00:53:03,220
So I think wr but I'm with you. I don't I didn't mind the title sports entertainment. I think it was fine

870
00:53:03,620 --> 00:53:05,140
um, but

871
00:53:05,140 --> 00:53:09,220
I think it's I think it's one of things tomato tomato. Am I right? I don't think it really matters

872
00:53:11,860 --> 00:53:14,260
The the definition of tushy

873
00:53:14,260 --> 00:53:17,620
Is the fleshy part of the human body that you sit on?

874
00:53:19,140 --> 00:53:21,460
Mm-hmm. E you have just named

875
00:53:22,180 --> 00:53:24,180
episode 127

876
00:53:25,300 --> 00:53:27,300
T and tushies

877
00:53:27,540 --> 00:53:29,540
T and tushies

878
00:53:29,780 --> 00:53:31,780
So speaking of t

879
00:53:31,780 --> 00:53:36,900
Is it is it tiffy time y'all there go t t tiffy time. Oh, yeah, it's been it's been her time

880
00:53:38,180 --> 00:53:39,860
That woman finished

881
00:53:39,860 --> 00:53:41,860
That's mack down show laid out two

882
00:53:41,860 --> 00:53:44,500
Baby faces to cheers

883
00:53:45,940 --> 00:53:48,820
She laid two baby faces out at the room at the elimination chamber

884
00:53:49,700 --> 00:53:51,700
and got cheers

885
00:53:52,260 --> 00:53:56,500
She's about to be out of here and they they look like they switched back to her old music, which is fantastic

886
00:53:57,780 --> 00:54:02,020
Which is great attention to that. Okay. Oh my god, rodija mat

887
00:54:02,740 --> 00:54:05,940
We got talking about your boys deaf rebel. Whoever's behind that man

888
00:54:06,980 --> 00:54:08,980
They ain't putting our bangers now. I got that man

889
00:54:08,980 --> 00:54:14,900
They ain't putting our bangers right now. You like that. But you like Bailey's music before uh before I match started. No

890
00:54:19,140 --> 00:54:24,020
Okay, it could grow on me, but it should never be something that can grow on me

891
00:54:24,420 --> 00:54:29,780
It should be something like boom instantly. You love it. But I let's see here's the thing diy

892
00:54:30,660 --> 00:54:35,220
I like their music now. Of course, it doesn't compare to their original in my heart at all

893
00:54:35,220 --> 00:54:39,220
But if you had to change it, I don't know why you can't change it back. But if you had to change it

894
00:54:39,780 --> 00:54:41,780
I am okay with their music now

895
00:54:42,340 --> 00:54:45,860
But it should be something that pops. It should be something that the moment that

896
00:54:46,500 --> 00:54:48,500
You hear it. You get hype

897
00:54:48,580 --> 00:54:50,580
and you feel something and

898
00:54:51,460 --> 00:54:55,540
I don't feel like oh my god. I'm about to watch this favorite woman's wrestler

899
00:54:55,940 --> 00:54:58,020
You know, I mean you don't you don't get that from it

900
00:54:58,660 --> 00:55:00,660
It sucks

901
00:55:00,660 --> 00:55:05,620
Yeah, like I mean like we sitting here trying to know man. It just sucks like

902
00:55:06,580 --> 00:55:11,540
I don't ever wish anybody to lose their job. I don't like I think that's kind of crazy. But they got every tour weaver

903
00:55:12,260 --> 00:55:14,420
Yeah, they gotta sit him down and just say hey, man

904
00:55:15,780 --> 00:55:19,060
What are you doing in there? What are you doing here? Like what what are we doing?

905
00:55:19,700 --> 00:55:24,660
Everything everything we give you we get it back is worse than what you are replacing

906
00:55:24,660 --> 00:55:32,020
It feels like an old school kind of like the lions do jerseys. Hey, no, no write ups

907
00:55:32,980 --> 00:55:39,540
Get it right up like he's on a pink. Come on. Yeah, like one of those wasn't worth like a final warning

908
00:55:40,260 --> 00:55:42,260
A couple months ago or a couple years ago

909
00:55:42,740 --> 00:55:45,700
We need one. It feels it feels like these are

910
00:55:46,340 --> 00:55:50,020
um music one two three four five six seven eight nine ten and

911
00:55:50,420 --> 00:55:54,020
Smackdown versus raw the video game the generics boys

912
00:55:54,020 --> 00:56:00,420
Yeah, that's that's what it was that's what it feels like and I was happy my my my character my creative character probably came out on

913
00:56:00,740 --> 00:56:02,740
Music number seven and that's probably what we got

914
00:56:03,380 --> 00:56:05,380
Would be it would Bailey music number seven

915
00:56:06,420 --> 00:56:07,860
That's horrible

916
00:56:07,860 --> 00:56:13,300
That's horrible, but it is indeed it is indeed tippy time. Y'all cuz she's a she can watch it look like a star

917
00:56:14,100 --> 00:56:14,980
always though

918
00:56:14,980 --> 00:56:16,980
She can watch it looking like a star and like man

919
00:56:16,980 --> 00:56:24,100
I hope when we talk about like her the name of her finisher Prince Moonsaw ever it might that might be the most fitting

920
00:56:24,580 --> 00:56:26,740
name of a finisher I've ever seen because

921
00:56:27,460 --> 00:56:31,620
It was perfect. She perfectly hit two women with that moonsaw

922
00:56:32,020 --> 00:56:36,900
Like do you see like the the the rotation she had and I know she was a gymnast or something like that, man

923
00:56:36,980 --> 00:56:38,420
But it's just

924
00:56:38,420 --> 00:56:45,060
It's just perfectly executed man the hops boom boom boom boom like everything about that just looks phenomenal. She looks great

925
00:56:45,060 --> 00:56:50,500
Um, it's also look who's looking great like Bianca up there in in that box

926
00:56:50,980 --> 00:56:55,540
She's looking phenomenal like right her in jay her in jay man. I said again

927
00:56:55,540 --> 00:57:01,220
I said imagine seeing those two women out somewhere and you have no idea who they are crazy like eyes

928
00:57:01,860 --> 00:57:06,580
Attached to them the entire time they are there like they just do that when they walk in a room

929
00:57:06,980 --> 00:57:09,220
It once again, he just goes back to presentation

930
00:57:09,940 --> 00:57:11,940
even down to when she hits each

931
00:57:11,940 --> 00:57:18,180
Wrong or the rope prettiest moonsaw ever and she hits the move that adds to her finish

932
00:57:18,740 --> 00:57:23,460
Yep, like imagine they didn't say that when she does that is yeah, it still looks great

933
00:57:23,700 --> 00:57:27,380
It just doesn't have this the same feeling to it. That's why presentation is just so important

934
00:57:27,700 --> 00:57:30,660
But I'm excited to see what they do with her and where she goes

935
00:57:31,300 --> 00:57:36,260
uh, but she is positioned very well and their plan is not to have her as a

936
00:57:37,380 --> 00:57:39,140
Snarky baby face

937
00:57:39,140 --> 00:57:41,700
They won't have to work to get the crowd to boo her

938
00:57:43,700 --> 00:57:49,860
She might be like she might she might be like uh, romey like right. She might just be so outlandish and over the top that yeah

939
00:57:49,860 --> 00:57:53,060
You like her but you can't in good faith

940
00:57:53,700 --> 00:57:57,300
Like, you know, wish her over somebody else. Yeah, you know what I'm saying?

941
00:57:57,700 --> 00:58:02,100
It's it's almost like it's almost like when your kid, you know, says they say something like

942
00:58:02,100 --> 00:58:09,700
Like my kids do it all the time. They say something they shouldn't say like right and I gotta look the other way and not laugh

943
00:58:10,020 --> 00:58:12,020
And then I got a chastisement afterwards

944
00:58:12,500 --> 00:58:16,660
Oh, yeah, right because you yeah, man. You look you you only 10 you can't be saying stuff like that man

945
00:58:16,660 --> 00:58:21,940
What's wrong with you right my mind like hey, it was good. I was good one. All right, but I can't tell him that and I can't say that

946
00:58:22,260 --> 00:58:24,260
in the room, right?

947
00:58:24,980 --> 00:58:31,300
But what I hope for we have this draft coming up and that's one thing we I think we should do at some point before the draft is

948
00:58:31,300 --> 00:58:33,300
We should do our own little mock drafts

949
00:58:33,860 --> 00:58:35,860
Right before the actual draft

950
00:58:35,940 --> 00:58:37,940
And I would love for a

951
00:58:38,100 --> 00:58:42,260
Yep, so we got a win. Do you know Wednesday? Yeah, we gotta do Wednesday. We got it. All right. Let's do it

952
00:58:42,420 --> 00:58:45,780
But so Tiffy, I hope that like I feel like smackdown

953
00:58:47,060 --> 00:58:49,060
Has too many women at the top

954
00:58:49,460 --> 00:58:51,860
Right and I feel I feel like she would be perfect

955
00:58:52,500 --> 00:58:56,980
Currently, right? I will know what the month one of the day is gonna look like it's a roster's right with the draft

956
00:58:56,980 --> 00:59:02,820
However, if she was on raw right now, there's so much TV time that they definitely can give her, you know

957
00:59:03,380 --> 00:59:08,580
Backstage segments interviews whatever they need to give her to kind of keep boosting her up there, right?

958
00:59:09,220 --> 00:59:10,740
And you never want to see Rhea get hurt

959
00:59:10,740 --> 00:59:14,180
But from a storyline if they're gonna try to stick to the draft

960
00:59:14,260 --> 00:59:19,300
This is the perfect time to get an injury. Yeah, because to you what you just said say if the plan was not for her to be

961
00:59:19,780 --> 00:59:22,580
On the opposite show is Rhea. Maybe you put her in the opposite show is Rhea now

962
00:59:22,580 --> 00:59:26,900
You know depending on freezing me out four to six months or whatever it's going to be

963
00:59:27,140 --> 00:59:31,540
So speaking of her these are feet to the fire because you are the the female voice of this podcast

964
00:59:31,620 --> 00:59:36,020
Battle Royal how you how you getting mad at me? Battle Royal that they didn't for the women's world title

965
00:59:36,900 --> 00:59:38,580
Get the fuck out of here

966
00:59:38,580 --> 00:59:40,580
Battle Royal. That's the best we could do

967
00:59:41,220 --> 00:59:45,380
The battle Royal because I feel like it has something to do with the draft

968
00:59:45,460 --> 00:59:47,460
I think in their mind, they feel like

969
00:59:47,460 --> 00:59:53,380
Uh, and again, who knows but in my mind, I feel like they have to make sure that there is a champion going into this draft

970
00:59:54,180 --> 00:59:56,180
I think it's terrible

971
00:59:56,260 --> 00:59:59,620
I think we should do a tournament and I think the winner of the tournament should win it

972
01:00:00,180 --> 01:00:04,900
Or could have been that's Cindy. It's a Cindy Loper interpretation of tournament. I'm so excited for this one

973
01:00:05,060 --> 01:00:08,420
Hey, but you talk about hey, you guys are hypo and no live being a champion

974
01:00:08,420 --> 01:00:12,100
Maybe this is an easy way to get her because she can definitely win in this scenario, right? Yeah

975
01:00:12,340 --> 01:00:14,420
Yeah, she was going against nyan. She wouldn't win

976
01:00:14,420 --> 01:00:17,860
But if she won't win in a battle royal, she absolutely could win. I could see that

977
01:00:18,180 --> 01:00:22,820
Somebody's slipping a banana peel and fall out. All right. Okay. So how about but how about this when I saw the battle royal?

978
01:00:23,860 --> 01:00:26,260
I was like, okay, so it's gonna be somebody who

979
01:00:27,140 --> 01:00:29,140
wouldn't win a tournament

980
01:00:29,780 --> 01:00:31,780
Like but it could be good though

981
01:00:31,940 --> 01:00:34,500
No, live can win a tournament live can win a tournament

982
01:00:35,060 --> 01:00:36,260
No, I

983
01:00:36,260 --> 01:00:41,620
Okay, I'm talking about somebody who you would look at and like they went in on like a fluke like a legit like

984
01:00:41,620 --> 01:00:44,980
How is Chelsea green the women's royal champion?

985
01:00:45,140 --> 01:00:51,060
That's not happening though, right? We're not gonna see Chelsea as a champion. But with with nia in the mix

986
01:00:52,420 --> 01:00:57,940
It's like all roads leads the cody all roads lead through nia. So you telling me that in just a shoot fight

987
01:00:58,500 --> 01:01:05,060
Wrestling match that live in nia live will go over but I can see it more in a battle royal

988
01:01:05,060 --> 01:01:12,900
Typically the biggest person doesn't win the battle royal. This is the Andre the giant battle. Really? Yeah, right?

989
01:01:12,900 --> 01:01:16,420
I would say the name of the that I would want

990
01:01:17,220 --> 01:01:19,220
Yeah, like if this was

991
01:01:20,500 --> 01:01:26,500
I think nia should get a nice little run with it. I think that would be fun. Yeah, I think that would be fun

992
01:01:27,220 --> 01:01:29,940
If she wins it, but I was super disappointed

993
01:01:30,980 --> 01:01:32,980
in that announcement

994
01:01:32,980 --> 01:01:35,860
And so I think that that wasn't the original plan. I think they would announce that

995
01:01:36,420 --> 01:01:38,100
last monday

996
01:01:38,100 --> 01:01:44,020
Man, let me tell you something you aaw haters man. If this happened on aw tv and tony book that we'll be all over man

997
01:01:44,100 --> 01:01:50,020
Y'all be y'all be open arms trip ways do it. We're gonna wait and see y'all y'all ridiculous, man

998
01:01:50,100 --> 01:01:54,020
We talked about but so you know, I I'm the one that brought up that this was a bad idea

999
01:01:54,340 --> 01:02:00,340
And you just championed it. Oh, but we you you just basically just went over real quick. You'd be killing it

1000
01:02:00,340 --> 01:02:03,380
It was aaw same on you. Do you hear this?

1001
01:02:04,260 --> 01:02:06,260
I can't I can't hear you anymore

1002
01:02:06,420 --> 01:02:08,820
You threw your wife under the bus because of this

1003
01:02:09,460 --> 01:02:12,740
I had nothing to do with it, but we just know that they had a hurry up and get somebody

1004
01:02:13,700 --> 01:02:16,820
That they had a hurry up and talking to crowds. Yeah, this is they's one move on real quick

1005
01:02:16,980 --> 01:02:20,260
But I just felt like this would have been so much better. Don't do it

1006
01:02:20,500 --> 01:02:23,460
You have queen of the ring in may right may or june. Oh, no

1007
01:02:24,020 --> 01:02:26,260
Too late. No, just well to your point because of the draft

1008
01:02:26,260 --> 01:02:29,780
So you gotta you gotta gotta take care of that now, but I'll tell you something else and I'm I'm

1009
01:02:30,340 --> 01:02:36,180
Done with too. I'm ready for it to be over. He just said I gotta hurry up and move on real quick LWO. All right, it's enough

1010
01:02:36,660 --> 01:02:42,900
I'm over it. But it's been time though. Yeah, I try to like just keep giving them time and was like, all right

1011
01:02:43,060 --> 01:02:47,700
I'm driving comes. Okay. Maybe we do some with him and Zelina in the LWO. I'm over it Carlito

1012
01:02:47,780 --> 01:02:53,540
Please turn on kill them all like break the break the break the let's turn now and let's get this

1013
01:02:53,540 --> 01:02:57,700
It ain't it ain't working boss the LWO in the final testament are the two

1014
01:02:58,340 --> 01:03:00,340
Org factions that they

1015
01:03:00,340 --> 01:03:01,220
Should I put on there, man?

1016
01:03:01,220 --> 01:03:07,540
Hey, I did I did like we look at the authors of pain and that little tag match there's some big dudes though, didn't they?

1017
01:03:07,540 --> 01:03:11,220
There was something big looking dude. I'm like when they walk in the ring, they look like somebody

1018
01:03:11,460 --> 01:03:14,260
I just wish they had a manager part. It wasn't ain't it

1019
01:03:15,540 --> 01:03:20,260
No disrespect to that man, but get them a mouthpiece and they go be all right and getting with carrying cross

1020
01:03:20,260 --> 01:03:24,740
Uh, carrying cross stays put the title on them. That's number one number two the profits

1021
01:03:25,700 --> 01:03:30,180
Do something with them. Thank you. Yes. We're here. This is the pivotal moment for them

1022
01:03:30,500 --> 01:03:34,820
Yep. Montez is not a solo star or arrears about the college solo star

1023
01:03:35,620 --> 01:03:40,180
Here we go. This is the prime opportunity to make them the new tag team champions

1024
01:03:40,580 --> 01:03:47,780
Have a meaningful run and if Montez stays in his corny character, so be it. I guess if it's you character

1025
01:03:47,780 --> 01:03:53,700
wise go for it and and thriving it but this is now the time to put the belts on them. I'm sorry. I tell y'all

1026
01:03:54,260 --> 01:03:56,260
It ain't gonna happen

1027
01:03:56,900 --> 01:03:58,900
That sucks

1028
01:03:59,860 --> 01:04:04,820
Too quick things and we can get out of here. Ritiza keeps saying she's got go to bathroom. So I am going to

1029
01:04:05,460 --> 01:04:11,300
Give you this Ritiza and then you are good to scamper away because the last part is just the releases on WWE

1030
01:04:12,260 --> 01:04:14,660
Rich sent me a great question my guy rich

1031
01:04:14,660 --> 01:04:18,660
He was listening to the pot

1032
01:04:19,300 --> 01:04:21,300
Yesterday and he said

1033
01:04:21,300 --> 01:04:23,300
great discussions surrounding

1034
01:04:23,380 --> 01:04:25,380
the four horse woman

1035
01:04:26,260 --> 01:04:27,780
You guys

1036
01:04:27,780 --> 01:04:29,780
need to rank the shield

1037
01:04:31,140 --> 01:04:35,380
And he said maybe that's tough. Maybe it's not and I said, okay. What's the criteria? He says it's up to you

1038
01:04:35,860 --> 01:04:37,860
Just make it the hardest

1039
01:04:38,180 --> 01:04:40,180
answer as possible

1040
01:04:40,340 --> 01:04:42,180
So let's go with

1041
01:04:42,180 --> 01:04:44,180
ranking the shield

1042
01:04:44,180 --> 01:04:46,180
in regards to

1043
01:04:48,420 --> 01:04:50,420
industry

1044
01:04:52,100 --> 01:04:54,100
Impact

1045
01:04:54,820 --> 01:04:58,340
I'm sorry. Okay, you said industry impact. Yep

1046
01:04:58,340 --> 01:05:12,420
In industry we mean like sales we mean like um visibility to the product or we taking that up for interpretation

1047
01:05:14,900 --> 01:05:16,900
So either Matt froze or we don't know dance

1048
01:05:16,900 --> 01:05:18,900
I ain't froze. I said it already

1049
01:05:18,900 --> 01:05:20,900
So busy paying attention

1050
01:05:20,900 --> 01:05:24,900
We can't we can't tell when he being quiet when he freezing on his phone

1051
01:05:24,900 --> 01:05:31,060
Yeah, she's she's so busy typing stuff in talking about how but she she ain't got a penis and she needed p and all this

1052
01:05:31,060 --> 01:05:34,660
Like this answer the damn question so you can go to the bathroom. I'm over it now

1053
01:05:37,380 --> 01:05:41,300
Can I get five full seconds to think let's see you got yours already

1054
01:05:43,140 --> 01:05:46,420
Why don't you go ahead and I'll go ahead and talk to us in time and you go take your pee

1055
01:05:46,660 --> 01:05:48,660
How about that? I don't mind

1056
01:05:48,980 --> 01:05:50,980
It's gonna be Roman

1057
01:05:51,220 --> 01:05:53,220
Moxley Seth

1058
01:05:53,220 --> 01:05:59,940
Do you would like me to elaborate Roman goes without say because I think that maybe mines too

1059
01:06:02,100 --> 01:06:04,580
I think that maybe and that's no discount to

1060
01:06:05,220 --> 01:06:08,980
Seth because if we're talking yeah, yeah, because if we're talking like just best wrestlers

1061
01:06:09,700 --> 01:06:13,460
He's not third. I think regardless whatever you look at roman's number one

1062
01:06:13,940 --> 01:06:19,860
Of course in my opinion on my list. He's number one in anything that you look at but yeah, if we were talking about wrestling ability

1063
01:06:20,980 --> 01:06:22,740
he's number two

1064
01:06:22,740 --> 01:06:25,460
promo ability mox is probably still number two

1065
01:06:27,060 --> 01:06:30,740
If not, maybe number one mox may be the best promo out of the three of them

1066
01:06:30,900 --> 01:06:36,660
But if we're just talking about impact mox has done way too much and like all these other promotions to not put him

1067
01:06:38,020 --> 01:06:40,020
Second

1068
01:06:41,300 --> 01:06:43,140
I'm going Roman

1069
01:06:43,140 --> 01:06:45,620
I'm going Roman Seth and then mox

1070
01:06:46,980 --> 01:06:48,340
Because I think that

1071
01:06:48,340 --> 01:06:53,300
Because I'm saying that because in the past couple years Roman, I'm sorry Roman is Roman, right?

1072
01:06:53,300 --> 01:06:57,620
He's on another level. I think that Seth has done more on a higher stage

1073
01:06:58,260 --> 01:07:03,940
Then mox mox has done great for aew and all those new japan's I think on a industry level

1074
01:07:04,500 --> 01:07:07,220
And a visibility standpoint. I think there's more eyes

1075
01:07:07,780 --> 01:07:10,900
On what wwe has been doing over the past couple years

1076
01:07:11,380 --> 01:07:14,980
Then aw new japan and cabaline to be honest with you. Um, yes

1077
01:07:14,980 --> 01:07:18,340
It is as mox an MVP for aw

1078
01:07:18,980 --> 01:07:20,260
Um, sure

1079
01:07:20,260 --> 01:07:23,780
Um, right and his realm was probably at the at the height of their popularity, right?

1080
01:07:23,860 --> 01:07:28,900
And once he lost the championship and he's kind of been going downhill, but there's other factors that's been included that

1081
01:07:29,300 --> 01:07:33,380
Um, I think his run currently has a new japan championship. I don't think it's champion

1082
01:07:33,780 --> 01:07:39,860
Right. I don't think it's gonna necessarily have a huge impact. Um, I think right now within the past year

1083
01:07:40,020 --> 01:07:41,300
Seth has been

1084
01:07:41,300 --> 01:07:43,700
You know doing some things like I haven't been huge on his run

1085
01:07:43,700 --> 01:07:49,060
But I can't deny that fans are there for him like he's chanting his name and we did a verse mania 40

1086
01:07:49,060 --> 01:07:53,620
He's a big intricate intricate part of that. I just think over the past and maybe his recency bias

1087
01:07:54,100 --> 01:07:57,060
Like I just feel like over the past couple years

1088
01:07:57,860 --> 01:07:59,860
Seth has done more to kind of

1089
01:08:00,900 --> 01:08:04,420
Overstep moxley, but I think it's like a 1a 1b with those two

1090
01:08:04,500 --> 01:08:06,180
I think it's you I don't think it's the wrong answer

1091
01:08:06,180 --> 01:08:09,300
But just for me, I'm a go more recently in the past couple years

1092
01:08:09,780 --> 01:08:11,780
Seth's been on the tear

1093
01:08:11,780 --> 01:08:17,380
I don't think it's that close again for me personally because I look at if somebody's watching the promotion

1094
01:08:18,100 --> 01:08:20,100
They're watching it for moxley

1095
01:08:20,340 --> 01:08:25,380
If you're watching wwe is not just for Seth. So that's why when you say industry-wide

1096
01:08:25,940 --> 01:08:31,380
That's the reason why I have moxley over Seth. I'm going to be watching wwe regardless if Seth is there or not

1097
01:08:31,620 --> 01:08:36,180
There are people who are watching those other promotion because of moxley and what he brings

1098
01:08:36,180 --> 01:08:40,260
So to me that is more impactful for the industry. So to me it's completely

1099
01:08:40,260 --> 01:08:43,300
Uh, uh, it's not close at all for me

1100
01:08:44,020 --> 01:08:49,380
But with all that being said it still goes without saying Seth is definitely the MVP of wrestling if you have

1101
01:08:49,780 --> 01:08:52,500
Seth you had orange castity just overall in totality

1102
01:08:52,820 --> 01:08:57,620
These were the people that kept just a company to these companies together kept wrestling together

1103
01:08:57,860 --> 01:09:02,180
And it almost like blasted me to speak bad on Seth, but to me it is just

1104
01:09:02,180 --> 01:09:09,540
There's no difference. I mean, there's it's not close at all between moxley and Seth. This was probably the easiest ranking I've ever done

1105
01:09:10,260 --> 01:09:14,980
You know, I mean, I just think that like the answer is roman at one and then whatever you want to do with two or three

1106
01:09:15,700 --> 01:09:19,060
I got it. It's kind of one of those like I would like this isn't a one where I'm like

1107
01:09:19,220 --> 01:09:19,620
All right, man

1108
01:09:19,620 --> 01:09:23,460
It's getting in a strong debate about it because I could see all sides of it

1109
01:09:23,780 --> 01:09:25,780
I mean even down to

1110
01:09:25,780 --> 01:09:29,460
Like triple h saying like hey when you got to start up a new belt

1111
01:09:29,460 --> 01:09:31,620
You give it to Seth and tell him to do what he do

1112
01:09:33,220 --> 01:09:39,060
And like now that lineage is set for that title that comes with that comes with something that's saying that moxley couldn't do that

1113
01:09:39,060 --> 01:09:41,060
But then I can just argue and say moxley made

1114
01:09:42,020 --> 01:09:45,940
aw along with Jericho a legitimate threat when he first showed up

1115
01:09:46,260 --> 01:09:49,460
But I think I think that's a great question. We love to hear

1116
01:09:50,180 --> 01:09:55,780
Everybody anybody's thoughts. Let me know put it of course on twitter or youtube. We'll talk about it on on wednesday

1117
01:09:55,780 --> 01:10:02,180
But I thought that was a good one, but I do think no matter what you got to put roman first if you would to put moxley

1118
01:10:04,260 --> 01:10:06,260
First

1119
01:10:06,260 --> 01:10:08,340
I would doubt probably where I would have the issue

1120
01:10:09,780 --> 01:10:12,100
Two nope, but one I'd be like, okay. That's not right

1121
01:10:13,780 --> 01:10:17,540
Last thing uh and on wednesday two riddies and write this down. I want to talk about the rat beef

1122
01:10:17,540 --> 01:10:24,820
I want to talk about the correlation and how pro wrestling plays a part in like rat beefs and then

1123
01:10:25,540 --> 01:10:30,020
Uh, some other things too that I want to talk about so we'll talk about like the draft on wednesday rat beef

1124
01:10:30,020 --> 01:10:32,660
And then was the other thing that oh the the top

1125
01:10:33,380 --> 01:10:36,740
10 wrestlers on each side which one has the best wrestlers you go with 10

1126
01:10:37,620 --> 01:10:39,620
Yeah, we did 10. Yeah 10 or 15

1127
01:10:39,860 --> 01:10:43,940
Uh, wb releases releases on friday night gender mahal zayali

1128
01:10:45,300 --> 01:10:46,180
beer

1129
01:10:46,180 --> 01:10:52,900
sangha and uh, how do you say his name? I forgot. I know his last name is quinn quinn zayan quinn. Yeah zayan quinn or

1130
01:10:53,540 --> 01:10:55,060
um

1131
01:10:55,060 --> 01:10:56,740
interesting

1132
01:10:56,740 --> 01:11:00,500
Any thoughts on my only thoughts really on um

1133
01:11:02,660 --> 01:11:06,660
The releases or who was released was I think gender

1134
01:11:08,420 --> 01:11:11,460
Way exceeded expectations on his run

1135
01:11:12,980 --> 01:11:14,980
Particularly when he had the title

1136
01:11:14,980 --> 01:11:19,300
And I think they consistently missed and dropped the ball on zayali

1137
01:11:20,660 --> 01:11:25,700
I think where she's gonna be fine wherever she goes, but she's one that I didn't understand the start stop

1138
01:11:26,340 --> 01:11:28,340
gimmick start stop characters

1139
01:11:28,420 --> 01:11:31,380
When they're going with her then they're not going with her. I think there's money behind her

1140
01:11:32,740 --> 01:11:34,340
I'm ditto

1141
01:11:34,340 --> 01:11:36,340
That's exactly what you said

1142
01:11:36,660 --> 01:11:37,940
um

1143
01:11:37,940 --> 01:11:39,700
so

1144
01:11:39,700 --> 01:11:42,180
I feel two different ways about this. I feel

1145
01:11:42,180 --> 01:11:45,620
I feel why release them if

1146
01:11:47,140 --> 01:11:49,140
You are a billion dollar company

1147
01:11:49,700 --> 01:11:54,180
You can afford to have them on your roster. You can afford to keep them on payroll so they can have

1148
01:11:55,060 --> 01:11:57,060
constant money coming in

1149
01:11:57,220 --> 01:11:59,700
That's probably just speaking on the outside looking in

1150
01:12:00,340 --> 01:12:07,940
But internally if you are a wrestler and you're doing this as a passion you probably want tv time you probably want to

1151
01:12:08,820 --> 01:12:09,860
Be out

1152
01:12:09,860 --> 01:12:13,220
In wrestling in front of the crowd and if you're not getting that

1153
01:12:13,700 --> 01:12:17,700
Then let me go go find somewhere else that I can't do that. So again

1154
01:12:18,100 --> 01:12:23,140
I i'm kind of conflicted on this because again, you don't have to release those people because in reality

1155
01:12:23,620 --> 01:12:27,780
It's probably not even a million dollars worth of money right there in contracts that you're talking about

1156
01:12:28,340 --> 01:12:30,660
But at the same time if they can go and do something

1157
01:12:31,220 --> 01:12:34,820
Yeah, I would say probably yeah, so what would that mean is four of them for five people

1158
01:12:34,820 --> 01:12:39,460
I would say probably jenice probably making the most. I don't know if the others were probably

1159
01:12:39,860 --> 01:12:46,340
Making much more than their nxt contract. They're not missing. They're not they being wwe is not going to be missing out on that money

1160
01:12:47,060 --> 01:12:49,060
but for me

1161
01:12:49,460 --> 01:12:54,660
Are they happy are they happy that they're released are they happy because they now they can go try to find somewhere else to work

1162
01:12:55,140 --> 01:12:59,540
Me just looking at it's like you don't need to let these people go because they can keep a paycheck

1163
01:12:59,540 --> 01:13:04,580
But again, what's the point in keeping them if you don't have any plans for them too? So i'm just conflicted

1164
01:13:05,620 --> 01:13:08,420
Yeah, I don't think anybody wants anybody lose their job and you know

1165
01:13:10,340 --> 01:13:13,380
I'm sure they have families and they want to support themselves

1166
01:13:14,500 --> 01:13:18,500
um, but just from a wrestling fans perspective just from my perspective

1167
01:13:18,660 --> 01:13:23,860
I'm not gonna miss seeing any of them on my television. I wasn't a big fan of industry

1168
01:13:24,180 --> 01:13:27,460
I've seen enough of them to say that I was good with not seeing them

1169
01:13:28,420 --> 01:13:29,380
um

1170
01:13:29,380 --> 01:13:34,100
Jenner like I actually enjoy his his run at the top

1171
01:13:35,380 --> 01:13:36,900
with the

1172
01:13:36,900 --> 01:13:42,180
Bodywood boys a lot more than I thought looking back on it. I thought he did a really good job with that

1173
01:13:42,820 --> 01:13:46,980
I'm I've been over in recent years. They haven't done much with them. But when he was on my tv screen, I was like, uh

1174
01:13:48,260 --> 01:13:53,540
Ziya Lee, I was a fan of hers. I wish they could have found something for her to do. I mean she had that

1175
01:13:53,540 --> 01:14:00,820
Uh championship match with the with Becky, right and it was okay. Um, right and then she went over nxc around the same time period

1176
01:14:01,220 --> 01:14:03,060
two champions

1177
01:14:03,060 --> 01:14:09,460
I don't know that was like a kind of to see check her temperature to see what she can do what she can give and maybe didn't work out

1178
01:14:10,100 --> 01:14:12,100
um, but

1179
01:14:13,060 --> 01:14:17,380
She was probably the person I probably all man. I wish they could have found something for her to do

1180
01:14:18,180 --> 01:14:21,700
You know, I hope in a chair find something else. I'm not sure where they can go

1181
01:14:21,700 --> 01:14:23,700
I was the fan of the work

1182
01:14:24,340 --> 01:14:26,340
in the ring on the mic

1183
01:14:27,300 --> 01:14:31,620
I don't know. Um gender. I'm sure he wrestling in his blood. He's gonna find something to do

1184
01:14:31,780 --> 01:14:34,580
You know, he he could probably bring his talents to like tna

1185
01:14:35,220 --> 01:14:38,340
Um, give another personality. He was that he's a personality

1186
01:14:38,900 --> 01:14:43,060
He can go there and do something for them for that show. I don't see a aw check it off

1187
01:14:43,140 --> 01:14:49,220
He's type of wrestler that Tony con looks for. Um, ziya lee to be honest with you man. She's a wwe baby

1188
01:14:49,220 --> 01:14:55,300
Like right. I don't think yet. He needs prior experience to the rest of industry indies prior to going wwe

1189
01:14:55,700 --> 01:14:59,940
I honestly can see her kind of just you know, like aliyah and like those type of girls

1190
01:15:00,660 --> 01:15:04,740
I don't know. We're here for her again. I hope so. I hope that you know, she gets with somebody and she

1191
01:15:04,980 --> 01:15:06,980
She can kind of reday view

1192
01:15:08,100 --> 01:15:14,500
You know on a a I'm not a that I'm for aw taker. Um, maybe like tna or something like that

1193
01:15:15,140 --> 01:15:16,820
um

1194
01:15:16,820 --> 01:15:20,740
I hope she makes it. Oh, I hope to see her again. Um, I felt like she had the look

1195
01:15:21,700 --> 01:15:23,140
Of a star

1196
01:15:23,140 --> 01:15:26,020
um, I don't know. She had the other qualities that's necessary, but

1197
01:15:26,900 --> 01:15:30,580
I gotta be honest with y'all man. I mean, we don't want to see anybody lose their jobs, but

1198
01:15:32,180 --> 01:15:34,180
You know

1199
01:15:38,100 --> 01:15:41,380
And we'll we'll leave it there. You don't want to you don't want to finish

1200
01:15:41,380 --> 01:15:45,620
The tea business has ran off

1201
01:15:46,740 --> 01:15:48,740

Hello
