good, especially he's 197 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,840 kind of the middleweight representative. 198 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,160 And so I'm kind of like, OK, well, 199 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,200 this will be an opportunity to see what Goslin can do. 200 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,760 And then Bougie will pick up the hard-fought victory 201 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,840 and will know what a BRG is. 202 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,560 And Bougie will stay strong. 203 00:09:49,560 --> 00:09:51,000 And it was none of that. 204 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,120 So honestly, that was my biggest surprise of the night. 205 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:59,800 And Goslin, I'm going to reserve some of my opinion on it. 206 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:00,880 It was a solid match. 207 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:02,800 There was nothing wrong with the match itself. 208 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,600 But I don't know if I just set my expectations too high 209 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,600 with him or not, because they really hammered him 210 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:10,440 in the original. 211 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,320 And I didn't do full-on go study tape of him or anything 212 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:13,720 like that. 213 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,920 But I looked to see how long he's been in the business, 214 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,560 see where he's came from, et cetera. 215 00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:21,640 And I was really expecting almost a more character-driven 216 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,320 wrestler, because they really hammered home 217 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,320 the point of the Ryan Goslin part. 218 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,720 And all of his promo packages involved him looking like Ken. 219 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:36,200 And then he comes out in just generic black tights, 220 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,840 wrestles, just a very basic style. 221 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,880 And like, oh, OK. 222 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,760 Well, that's like nothing stood out for me as to why 223 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,440 should I care about BRG. 224 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:48,840 Like nothing stood out. 225 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,160 And you said it was a solid match. 226 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,040 Yeah, there's nothing wrong with it. 227 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,800 Buji stood out. 228 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,600 I see Buji, he did his thing. 229 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,000 BRG, OK, let's see what you got. 230 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,520 I didn't see anything. 231 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,040 Like I didn't see anything special. 232 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,280 I didn't see anything at all. 233 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,760 But I'm pretty sure this has happened before, 234 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,720 because they did it with Love Dog before. 235 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,040 I didn't see anything with Love Dog. 236 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,360 And then by his second or third match, 237 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,200 the dude could wrestle his ass off. 238 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,200 And I'm like, OK, they finally let him go. 239 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,800 So I'm hoping this will happen with BRG. 240 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:27,160 The next tapings in November or just whenever he comes back. 241 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:31,200 And it's OK, you put your feet in the water. 242 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,840 We're going to let you jump in now and go and show them 243 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:34,800 what you could do. 244 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,240 So that's what I'm hoping for. 245 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:37,800 So we'll see what happens. 246 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,600 But well, and the difference between him and Love Dog 247 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,560 is Love Dog, they really established his character 248 00:11:44,560 --> 00:11:45,480 before he had the match. 249 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,000 So like he was a gimmick, whereas Goslin, 250 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,560 like they really didn't like his gimmick that they kind of 251 00:11:53,560 --> 00:11:55,320 put out there was the whole Ken thing. 252 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:59,280 And then he came out and wrestled generic wrestler number five. 253 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,440 And again, this can change like. 254 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,640 And he looks similar to Brian Goslin. 255 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:04,360 Yeah. 256 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,080 And they didn't even play like anything like that up 257 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:07,680 in the match, too. 258 00:12:07,680 --> 00:12:09,280 Like they didn't be like, hey, I'm good looking 259 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:10,400 or don't touch my face. 260 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:14,280 Or he just came out, wrestled, like called everyone stupid 261 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,360 and just went along with it. 262 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,080 Like maybe if they give him a mic later, 263 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,080 yeah, we can change our mind. 264 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:20,000 It's a first match. 265 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,840 Like we're getting into. 266 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,440 Sweet victory. 267 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:24,680 Sweet victory. 268 00:12:24,680 --> 00:12:26,680 Yeah. 269 00:12:26,680 --> 00:12:29,760 And like, and that's like one of his nicknames on the Indies 270 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,680 is like victorious BRG. 271 00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:34,040 So but we'll see where it's going. 272 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:35,600 Like again, at least nothing else. 273 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,240 Like it's something to build on. 274 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:38,000 Yeah. 275 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,480 Looking at the positive spot. 276 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,680 Like he didn't come out and pooped the bed 277 00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:42,880 and had a garbage match. 278 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,040 And I just like my big complaint is just like, 279 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,920 I kind of wish they did. 280 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,640 We got to see. 281 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,920 That bougie got a bigger spotlight out of these. 282 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,120 And he is the established talent compared to the two. 283 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,280 But yet it hasn't really had a chance to break out so much 284 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:57,880 on his own yet. 285 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:01,040 But yeah. 286 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,840 So moving kind of along with that, we get again, 287 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,000 there's a bunch of backstage stuff that kind of goes along. 288 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,400 It's a lot of the who done it involving Mr. Thomas. 289 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,040 And they're really trying to point fingers 290 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,160 because that it was Fatou who took out Mr. Thomas 291 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,440 and spoiler alert, it's not. 292 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,280 But which I figure we all kind of figure that kind of stuff. 293 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:22,880 Because Fatou at this stage in his career 294 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,200 is a bit more in your face. 295 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,560 Like so if he's going to sneak attack you, 296 00:13:25,560 --> 00:13:28,280 he's going to sneak attack you, not your friends. 297 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,760 But hilarious things come at the end. 298 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,320 But leaving that comes into our main event for the MLW 299 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,440 tag team championships. 300 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,480 Tables match, technically elimination style. 301 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,520 The calling, who are the champions. 302 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,840 Taking on the second gear career represented 303 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:49,960 by the one called Manders and Matthew Justice. 304 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,720 Point of this match is to put your opponents through the table. 305 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,880 Each member of the team has to go through the table 306 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:56,680 for it to continue. 307 00:13:56,680 --> 00:13:59,880 Otherwise no DQs, chaos ensues. 308 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,480 Man. 309 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,200 Like I said before, I'm not a humongous person 310 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:10,480 when it comes to these type of matches. 311 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:12,080 The last couple of times I've seen them, 312 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,320 they've been kind of good. 313 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,680 I didn't like this one that much. 314 00:14:17,680 --> 00:14:21,080 Because a lot of weird things were going on, 315 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:26,440 especially when Cannonball comes out to help the guys, 316 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,680 not both of those guys out. 317 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,440 And then he just kind of just gets out and walks off. 318 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,360 And I'm like, well, why would you come down for that? 319 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:41,920 And then why can't you stay there observing what's going on? 320 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,600 Or help actually win the match. 321 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:44,400 Yeah. 322 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,240 It's great that he helped turn the tie to the match. 323 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,760 But yeah, if there's no DQs, why stop there? 324 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,120 But he literally just kind of stumbled out, 325 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,200 did a couple big switches. 326 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,000 Yeah, he literally squished the second gear crew, 327 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,120 then just left the ring and wandered off to the back. 328 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,080 And we don't see him for another five or 10 minutes. 329 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,560 Yeah, he took it afternoon, brought straw to the ring, 330 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,360 destroyed somebody, and like, OK, I'm going back now. 331 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,800 And then the screw we finished, how they did it, 332 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:18,360 with both people going to the table. 333 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:23,880 I'm thinking to myself, OK, that is, I'm not sure. 334 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:24,920 Yeah. 335 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:25,920 Yeah. 336 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,200 And it kind of fit the overall tone of the match. 337 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,080 I will say, once again, in-ring, bell to bell, 338 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,000 like for the most part, I found the match was fine. 339 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,480 I'm OK with wild brawls. 340 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:35,800 I'm OK with table matches. 341 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:40,160 They didn't lean into some of the real death match tropes. 342 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,400 So this was just a brawl that involved tables. 343 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,200 So they didn't go all out with that. 344 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:45,400 That's fine. 345 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,000 But yeah, it was a bit overbooked, for the most part. 346 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,040 There was a lot of needless interference 347 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,200 to be had with it, to start the party, 348 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,680 where the second gear crew jumped to start the party. 349 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,840 Cannonball coming in and then really not doing anything 350 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,600 to help with an overall victory. 351 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,920 And then the fact that they called the match draw, which, 352 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:07,640 I mean, I get it from a rules standpoint from doing that. 353 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,920 But like, tables matches are kind of supposed to have a finish. 354 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,160 That's kind of what they're designed to do, 355 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:15,960 is to make sure somebody wins. 356 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,560 Even if it's a hook or a crook, maybe 357 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,080 have Cannonball come in and put something through the table. 358 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:22,280 Oh, it counts. 359 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,800 No DQs, but it leaves the door open. 360 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,960 And this one was just like, nope. 361 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,880 The ref's just like, both guys went through a table. 362 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:29,680 Good enough. 363 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,000 I'm going home. 364 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,000 Yeah. 365 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,240 And then the crowd even hated that. 366 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,840 And then afterwards, Cannonball returns. 367 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:37,840 Yeah. 368 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,800 It all just broke down from there again, too. 369 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,560 And I will say, at the start of the breakdown, 370 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,640 I put it on Twitter, I put it in the podcast. 371 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:53,360 Market on the calendar, I approve of Long-Called Manders' 372 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,480 actions at least once. 373 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,160 So it physically hurt me to do that. 374 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,240 And I spent the next half hour retching 375 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:02,560 and in the fetal position. 376 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,680 But the Long-Called Manders started this whole party 377 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,320 by taking out the obviously biased referee with a nasty 378 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:09,520 string of clothesline. 379 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,560 Now, he closed like this shit of that ref. 380 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:12,440 I was all down. 381 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:13,320 Like, who like? 382 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:14,240 Took the news head off. 383 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:15,800 And then from there, we get a further schmah 384 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,920 as the rest of the calling come back out. 385 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,480 And we brawl. 386 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,320 And I was literally thinking like, huh, 387 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,280 I wonder if Mans is going to come help his friends. 388 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,240 And actually, he did. 389 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:28,160 Great. 390 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,040 So they turned the tide. 391 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,600 Mans gets on the mic and basically delivers a pep talk 392 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:40,200 to the boys of like, hey, we've been here all this time. 393 00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:42,600 We've not sniff gold. 394 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:44,360 What can we do to change this? 395 00:17:44,360 --> 00:17:47,600 And justice gets on and basically it 396 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,880 didn't actively challenge, but laid down a gauntlet, 397 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,080 set the seeds for a ladder match at some time in the future. 398 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,320 Didn't specify whether it's just going to be a regular tag 399 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,840 or if it's going to be a six man kind of affair. 400 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,600 Well, it should be a regular tag match. 401 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:03,560 You think that? 402 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,000 Well, you hope that. 403 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,600 But they all, like all members, like he referenced kind 404 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,760 of like all three members of the second year 405 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:15,200 cruise specialties of Mans just being violent. 406 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,720 The boss of the planes pulling the cart along. 407 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,000 And then justice himself being willing to jump off 408 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,360 of any tall thing that's happened to be put in front of him. 409 00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:27,080 So they've kind of implied that it might be like, 410 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,080 that it might be kind of like a free bird rule 411 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,720 situation kind of thing. 412 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:32,200 Yeah. 413 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,240 And you hang up the titles, help high, 414 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:36,040 have to go up there. 415 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,320 Either one person or both playing people 416 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,120 have to go up there to get the belts and see. 417 00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:42,480 And I'm pretty sure. 418 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,920 And I'm hoping that this happens at the November 419 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:47,160 fair preview. 420 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:47,400 Yeah. 421 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,200 Because they have the, instead of December. 422 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:51,680 Yeah. 423 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,160 I'm trying to think of like the timeframe. 424 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:54,880 Time is all running together on me. 425 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:55,360 Yeah. 426 00:18:55,360 --> 00:18:56,800 Because so we got a couple of weeks yet. 427 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:58,800 So we got at least, I would say at least one or two 428 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,360 more matches that need to be announced for. 429 00:19:00,360 --> 00:19:00,840 Yeah. 430 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,960 Because I think we were at the Peppermint's November 18th. 431 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:03,800 Yes. 432 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:04,480 OK. 433 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:04,960 Yes. 434 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,720 So I think we got two more weeks for that. 435 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,520 And actually, this is the first time 436 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,040 I want to say in two years where they actually finally 437 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:16,680 have their Peppermint view and their tapings perfectly 438 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,360 right after. 439 00:19:18,360 --> 00:19:21,280 So it's going perfect. 440 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,440 So now there's no more late tapings and stuff like that. 441 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,400 It's being right on top right there. 442 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,640 So now to the 18th, two more weeks, 443 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,680 they'll have enough matches for that for the next two weeks. 444 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:33,840 Another Peppermint view. 445 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,320 And then you do the tapings and you keep doing it like that. 446 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,440 You have it in a nice calendar week now or a month 447 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:41,120 when you have it. 448 00:19:41,120 --> 00:19:45,480 So I'm hoping this tag team happens at the November 18 449 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,480 show and not December. 450 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:48,000 So yeah. 451 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,680 Well, I think it'll depend on how, yeah. 452 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,880 Well, whether they want to go six man or just tag team. 453 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:56,680 Or tag team. 454 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,040 Because if they're going to go six man, 455 00:19:58,040 --> 00:19:59,480 they'll probably wait till December. 456 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,440 But if they just do a regular tag team, 457 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,320 it could be done at Fightland. 458 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:07,120 Just because Mance already has that match with Matt Cardona too. 459 00:20:07,120 --> 00:20:09,520 So I doubt they'll have him pull double duty on, especially 460 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:14,200 for a match that will be that brutal with the ladder match. 461 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,600 Because that's just going to be nothing but crazy spots. 462 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,360 And they also have Jimmy Lloyd, right? 463 00:20:19,360 --> 00:20:20,720 Like a podcast. 464 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:21,880 March. 465 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,840 Yeah, kind of an auxiliary member of the second gear 466 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,000 for an ally. 467 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,160 However, if they don't have Warner there, 468 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:32,080 they'll have Lloyd back up the second gear crew or whatever. 469 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,680 And that's fair to you. 470 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,640 I'm not a big Jimmy Lloyd fan, so I just don't like thinking 471 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,440 about him. 472 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,840 Well, yeah, I don't think any type of him climbing 473 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,680 any type of ladder. 474 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:46,520 But no, but that kind of chaos is his wheelhouse. 475 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:47,520 He is a death match guy. 476 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,720 Like that is what he is known for him. 477 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,360 Both him and Cannonball, really. 478 00:20:51,360 --> 00:20:53,440 Or just straight up death match guys. 479 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,960 And I'm surprised I still haven't seen any type of light bulbs. 480 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,240 Like any other matches yet. 481 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,880 And I see light bulbs. 482 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,000 I'm going to start freaking out. 483 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:03,520 I'm done with the nonsense. 484 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,000 Well, and see, this is where, you know, 485 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,200 Death Ash fan here. 486 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,640 A lot of venues like that. 487 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,800 Light tubes is something that's venue based. 488 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,160 There are venues that take commissions. 489 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,000 Like I think Pennsylvania is one of the ones 490 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,680 that allow you to do light tubes at that mission. 491 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,560 So light tubes is really dependent on where 492 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:22,320 you're taking them. 493 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,880 So like even CZW, yeah, here's your history lesson 494 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:25,400 for the day. 495 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,800 And like CZW, who has their big tournament of death 496 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,000 every year, like they're based out of Philadelphia usually. 497 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,600 Though they've moved with J. High taking over, 498 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,200 they've kind of moved closer to the coast. 499 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,480 But they would always have like they would do all their shows 500 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,800 in Philly except for tournament of death. 501 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,320 And they would take that out to Delaware. 502 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,040 Because Philadelphia wouldn't let you use light tubes. 503 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:47,040 A couple of the other, we'll say more gross. 504 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,720 Potentially gross and injurious aspects. 505 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,320 And that's a good thing. 506 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,880 Because I was aware that different states 507 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,360 have rules for stuff like that. 508 00:21:57,360 --> 00:21:59,280 So that was the first time. 509 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:00,240 So that was a good thing. 510 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,800 Like you told those daggers. 511 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,280 Oh, I'll throw them out into the bus. 512 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:08,800 IWA Mid-South used to run a lot in the Peoria, Illinois area. 513 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,480 But they kind of had to refocus some of their cards. 514 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,080 Because the building they were in, 515 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,800 like they were initially willing to put up 516 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,520 with a lot of the death match stuff. 517 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,040 But then they were like, I don't know if they just, 518 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,080 if it wasn't, then you just wasn't getting cleaned properly. 519 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,920 Or if it was just one of those things, 520 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,200 no matter how well you cleaned it, 521 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,120 they were still finding glass everywhere. 522 00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:31,960 Yeah, exactly. 523 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,280 Because it's like glitter. 524 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,880 You can't get rid of it. 525 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,440 So they just finally just said, no, you can't do the light tubes 526 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:40,160 part of it. 527 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:47,040 And so it changed some of the strategy of the match booking 528 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:48,200 and the card booking. 529 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:49,520 And so they would do it. 530 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:50,440 You were right, man. 531 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:51,600 The whole cleaning. 532 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,320 And then you definitely going to have 533 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:58,920 to do a deep cleansing of every bit and corner 534 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,760 that you can find because of blood. 535 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:07,040 So I mean, that's got to be a hectic one day, two day 536 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:07,760 cleaning, man. 537 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,240 Just going there and watching everything just 538 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:11,840 like from top to bottom. 539 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,400 So I think that's why we have one of the reasons 540 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,520 MLW hasn't necessarily gone full death match. 541 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:19,960 And I hope they do. 542 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,880 I'm out. 543 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,840 And I will say as a whole, just kind of again, 544 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,960 kind of pulling back the veil of things, 545 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:32,440 it's hard to get some of the violence or depicted violence 546 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,520 on certain providers with the death match stuff. 547 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,200 Because it's a weird hypocrisy because we 548 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,120 acknowledge that per wrestling is a scripted sport. 549 00:23:40,120 --> 00:23:43,240 So that these guys aren't necessarily, 550 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:44,800 these guys don't always hate each other. 551 00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:45,960 It's all a work. 552 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:47,720 But they like to draw a line on something 553 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,960 like the blood stuff because it's too realistic. 554 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:55,360 And so YouTube also does it in a weird way. 555 00:23:55,360 --> 00:23:57,480 But it's very much like anti-that violence. 556 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,720 So if YouTube's your main show for it, 557 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,840 sometimes you've got to watch like, yeah, 558 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:03,920 you can bleed all this much. 559 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,680 But you can't make them bleed doing X, Y, and Z, too. 560 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,200 So I think that's been kind of a stopping point 561 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,440 for some of this stuff as well. 562 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,560 For future references, when you give us 563 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,880 tip bits like this that are important, 564 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,880 I need you to put that D-Ball hat on. 565 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:20,480 But you got to get it. 566 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,600 I got none of the habit. 567 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,240 Yeah, put that on. 568 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,960 And then give us the tip bits that you just 569 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,600 gave us about the blood in different states and cities 570 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:32,800 and stuff like that. 571 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,320 Because like I said, I never knew that. 572 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:38,520 And I was never aware that different states had 573 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,240 different laws for stuff like that. 574 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,760 So that's where the D-Ball hat goes on. 575 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,400 It doesn't have the same effect. 576 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:50,760 Without Chef here to laugh at it and gesture wildly as it on. 577 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:54,080 Yeah, that's where the thinking cap comes on. 578 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:55,800 Like, OK, kids, here we go. 579 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,640 There goes my professor cap. 580 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,720 We're going to school right now because the hat is on. 581 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:04,080 Here's a history lesson by Uncle Rob K. 582 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,560 Uncle K is going to give you the history lesson 583 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,080 because we got all shit. 584 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,880 It's Uncle K's time history lesson. 585 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,680 That'll be cool because like I said, that's news to me. 586 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,200 And I'm pretty sure that's news to a lot of people 587 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,960 about different laws and different states 588 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:20,760 and different cities and stuff like that. 589 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,640 So there we go. 590 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,280 We need to bring Chef back. 591 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,720 Let you guys just talk, do the commentary of the show. 592 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,800 And then you just like, oh, here's a good point. 593 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,080 Let's get some clarification. 594 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,600 And then I can pop up with my hat on as well. 595 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,280 And I can do the science or the history of whatever. 596 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,280 We should have a little graphic. 597 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,560 Uncle K's corner, pop up and then the hat comes on. 598 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,640 Well, kids, here's today's history lesson. 599 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,000 Or history rules that you might not know. 600 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,920 Here's the background of Insert This Day View. 601 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:54,920 Yes. 602 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,680 This guy's been wrestling for 10 years out of the CZW 603 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:58,920 Wrestling Academy. 604 00:25:58,920 --> 00:25:59,920 Yes. 605 00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:02,040 It's the point that I'd be kind of cool, man. 606 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:03,320 That would be a good idea. 607 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,520 But yeah, that's when the hat's got to come in. 608 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,560 I even started leaving the hat out. 609 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,120 Once we put it on, we know something important. 610 00:26:10,120 --> 00:26:11,760 It's about to get dropped. 611 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,800 The knowledge, the gem of Rob K is getting dropped right now. 612 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,440 Because the hat is on. 613 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:22,560 Let's lay back and listen to the man, the professor, K, tell 614 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,920 it in the name of the, oh, the tidbit of the week. 615 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:27,720 There we go. 616 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,440 Here's our wrestling nerd of the moment. 617 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:31,880 Thank you for that. 618 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,960 Because like I said, I wasn't aware. 619 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:38,200 And I'm pretty sure a lot of us weren't aware of rules like 620 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,200 that. 621 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:43,560 So now I see why it's hard to do wrestling shows at specific 622 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,840 locations and cities and states and stuff like that. 623 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:47,320 Yeah. 624 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:47,520 I don't know. 625 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,680 There's a whole bunch of weird stuff, especially for the few 626 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:54,200 states that still have active athletic commissions. 627 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:58,600 So it's why like, well, the hat comes back on. 628 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,600 Since we're wasting time just talking about random stuff. 629 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,480 It's also why Chuck Taylor, like technically, like was 630 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,120 wrestling for like four years, but couldn't wrestle in his 631 00:27:07,120 --> 00:27:07,600 home state. 632 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,320 Like he didn't get to wrestle a home show, like despite being 633 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,400 in the business for like three or four years before it happened. 634 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,840 Because he was another one of those guys who started wrestling 635 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,200 before his 18th birthday. 636 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:23,640 And Kentucky is, Kentucky is actually very much age consent. 637 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,840 So you got to, you actually have to be an adult to wrestle in 638 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:26,560 Kentucky. 639 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,840 So he lived on the Illinois, Illinois, Indiana border. 640 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,200 And you just like cross the river where Illinois, they don't 641 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:33,280 care. 642 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,600 You have to be exactly 18 or 21. 643 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,520 18, I believe. 644 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:39,800 Really, in Kentucky. 645 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,520 And in Illinois, they didn't care. 646 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,040 So he would wrestle a lot in southern Illinois. 647 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:44,200 Yeah. 648 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:49,480 And I've been seeing a lot of young people now, like 16, 17 649 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,720 wrestling in specific cities and states. 650 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,040 Now, I don't know. 651 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,800 This person is 16 and they could wrestle already on the show 652 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:57,720 or 17. 653 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,240 But yeah, now it begins to make sense that it's probably like 654 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,160 New Jersey and stuff like that upstate. 655 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,720 They have maybe some kind of age limit that where they're allowed. 656 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,360 In Mexico, we know they could wrestle. 657 00:28:10,360 --> 00:28:15,200 Mexico and Japan is pretty bad at times too with starting them young. 658 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,080 Well, like, yeah, like start them. 659 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:18,600 Yeah, a lot of young people. 660 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,240 The Joshi specifically, yeah, will start at like the age of nine, 661 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,760 even though they won't necessarily formally debut until they're late teens. 662 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:25,240 Yes. 663 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:25,520 Yes. 664 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,960 But they're part of the crew, they're doing the cleaning, 665 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:30,320 the setting up of the rings. 666 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,240 So they learn that part and then they train them. 667 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,600 And then when they feel comfortable, they'll give them the opening spot 668 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,680 for like a three-manish showcase. 669 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,000 And you see this 10, 11-year-old girl just doing flips. 670 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,440 And then you're like, damn, 11 years old already? 671 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,040 She's like, wow, 12? 672 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,960 And there's some famous examples of it. 673 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,360 Like, I know a lot of people have used it against Kenny Omega, 674 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,640 but like Kenny Omega has wrestled a nine-year-old. 675 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:56,000 Yeah. 676 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,480 But you know who people don't talk shit about? 677 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:02,200 Minoru Suzuki, angry murder grandpa also wrestled a nine-year-old, 678 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,520 but no one's ragging on him because he will kill you. 679 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:05,760 Also not the same girl? 680 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,000 I think so. 681 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,760 And didn't she beat both of them? 682 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:13,280 Like, I don't know about Suzuki. 683 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:14,680 I don't think I've watched the full match. 684 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:15,080 OK. 685 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,360 Yeah, she technically beat Omega. 686 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:17,880 OK. 687 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:18,800 No, it wasn't clean. 688 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,440 It wasn't a clean pinfall. 689 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:21,080 Yeah. 690 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,080 And she looked amazing. 691 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,040 I want to see how she is now. 692 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:27,560 And she's still wrestling now. 693 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,560 She's probably retired because she's a 20-year veteran. 694 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,320 Yeah, right. 695 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,520 Which I shouldn't joke because actually that's kind of legit 696 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:35,320 with the Yoshi stuff. 697 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,760 Like, the Yoshi window is usually ridiculously small. 698 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,160 They just want to serve some. 699 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:40,680 She just turned 19. 700 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:42,520 I'm a 10-year vet. 701 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:43,000 Yeah. 702 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,240 I'm a 10-year vet. 703 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,160 You just turned 19. 704 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:47,760 Yeah, and we can laugh at it. 705 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,240 But that's 10 years of bumps. 706 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:53,640 Like, that's, you know, doing that for so long. 707 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:54,120 Yeah. 708 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,160 Because everybody likes to throw out the years 709 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:57,360 that they've been wrestling. 710 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,320 Well, I'm 19 years old. 711 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,760 I've been wrestling for 11 years. 712 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,080 I started when I was eight. 713 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:03,560 And I beat Kenny Omega. 714 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,760 I was like, OK, shit. 715 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,360 You got your five-star match already. 716 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,920 Before there were five-star matches. 717 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,040 Well, OK, we're just bumbling on now. 718 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:14,080 So just be careful. 719 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:15,840 We've done our history corner. 720 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,720 We've moved on from MLW, moved on to our wrestling history 721 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:24,520 corner and wrestling promoting politics. 722 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:25,480 And you know me. 723 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:26,480 And you know me. 724 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,880 You throw me at one word and I'll go from there 725 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:30,560 to something else. 726 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:31,720 Exactly. 727 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,160 We were doing with MLW like 10 minutes ago. 728 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,520 So we're going to have a whole separate audience just 729 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:41,120 for the Rob K history corner. 730 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:44,320 The wrestling show now stayed two for Rob K's corner 731 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,160 of the history of wrestling. 732
