Matches Tony Khan Should Book for AEW All Out, Women's Continental Classic & John Cena's Final Match | Takedown

WEBVTT

00:10.263 --> 00:19.012
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, first ever live stream of take down the hot take show that Paul and I do where we we're not down the middle.

00:19.132 --> 00:34.206
[SPEAKER_00]: We're we're we're we're picking a top we're picking where we're we're talking about something and we're making our opinion very known on the topic and the reason why we're actually doing the live stream is I usually do my San Francisco Giants podcast

00:34.887 --> 00:36.047
[SPEAKER_00]: which is why I'm wearing the hat.

00:36.467 --> 00:39.828
[SPEAKER_00]: But my podcast partner, he is out of town.

00:40.488 --> 00:49.630
[SPEAKER_00]: He is in Oklahoma at his daughter is she's she actually took a year off.

00:49.750 --> 00:51.171
[SPEAKER_00]: She's supposed to be a freshman in college.

00:51.631 --> 00:57.372
[SPEAKER_00]: She wanted to take a year off kind of get some finances in order and then wants to go back college.

00:57.412 --> 01:04.474
[SPEAKER_00]: Now we know sometimes how that works or doesn't work, but to move from Nevada Reno to Oklahoma.

01:05.154 --> 01:08.837
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe she's a Jim Ross fan or something.

01:09.198 --> 01:11.940
[SPEAKER_00]: But so that's why we're doing this here.

01:12.560 --> 01:16.363
[SPEAKER_00]: Normally we just kind of pre-record it and then put it up as audio and video later.

01:16.443 --> 01:18.986
[SPEAKER_00]: But we're live here and we have some questions.

01:19.046 --> 01:23.209
[SPEAKER_00]: I know I threw some stuff in our discord for people who may have some opinions.

01:23.249 --> 01:25.451
[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to talk about three big things.

01:25.951 --> 01:30.455
[SPEAKER_00]: And I kind of feel bad because I told you my idea for this show.

01:30.535 --> 01:32.637
[SPEAKER_00]: But I also said, hey, if we don't do it, we'll skip it.

01:32.677 --> 01:33.657
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll come back next week.

01:34.378 --> 01:41.119
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope you didn't feel pressured to watch five hours and forty minutes of AEW forbidden door today.

01:41.800 --> 01:48.881
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, the funny thing is when when you said that, I kind of in my mind, I kind of decided, okay, we're probably not doing the show.

01:48.961 --> 01:52.802
[SPEAKER_01]: So then I even on the dynamite show, I said, oh, I don't think we're going to be doing a show this week.

01:53.682 --> 02:00.663
[SPEAKER_01]: And so then, you know, and then it was like, and I had so much stuff to watch like a week ago, and then for whatever reason, I just managed to get a lot of it watched.

02:01.244 --> 02:02.764
[SPEAKER_01]: So today, like,

02:03.504 --> 02:09.690
[SPEAKER_01]: I had one show I would have watched before forbidden door, but I decided, okay, I'll just watch forbidden door first.

02:10.371 --> 02:12.393
[SPEAKER_01]: And so, and I haven't watched heatwave yet.

02:12.893 --> 02:15.996
[SPEAKER_01]: So, but yeah, so I watched, yeah, and it was yeah, five and a half hours.

02:16.017 --> 02:17.198
[SPEAKER_01]: Now you can get through it.

02:17.258 --> 02:19.960
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not like WWE where you can skip like half of it.

02:20.040 --> 02:22.083
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, yeah, kind of got to watch most of it.

02:22.563 --> 02:26.267
[SPEAKER_01]: But I think I got through it in about little over four hours.

02:26.987 --> 02:29.270
[SPEAKER_01]: And I didn't watch most of the main event.

02:29.310 --> 02:32.092
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I just watched the beginning of it and then I skipped ahead to the main event angle.

02:32.112 --> 02:34.375
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'll go back and watch the rest of the match later.

02:34.435 --> 02:35.836
[SPEAKER_01]: But I did see everything else.

02:36.637 --> 02:46.366
[SPEAKER_00]: And the reason why I wanted Paul to have some knowledge of this show is because our number one topic on today's Take Down.

02:47.287 --> 03:01.375
[SPEAKER_00]: is based on what three and a half weeks from now or I guess it I guess it truly has to be four weeks because I think it's a no Saturday paper view so yeah three and a half weeks the big showdown.

03:01.395 --> 03:12.341
[SPEAKER_00]: WWE's Russell Palusa against AEW all out and I asked actually asked Dave this question this is a couple weeks ago.

03:13.397 --> 03:21.701
[SPEAKER_00]: And I said, OK, now that Tony Khan knows that they're going head to head against him with their A show.

03:23.422 --> 03:33.608
[SPEAKER_00]: Does Tony Khan maybe pivot on things that he was saving and treat this like a top show, a main show, a big time show.

03:34.448 --> 03:42.513
[SPEAKER_00]: And he said, David, David, David said, yes, he's like absolutely, he should, if he feels the need to, you know, make the show bigger or more important or whatever.

03:43.613 --> 03:49.016
[SPEAKER_00]: And as we now know, WWE is starting on ESPN.

03:50.117 --> 03:55.339
[SPEAKER_00]: Essentially, with Russell Palusa and they're going to be on ESPN for the next five years or so.

03:55.840 --> 03:58.721
[SPEAKER_00]: So that kick starts this relationship with the ESPN.

03:59.001 --> 04:01.042
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm going to guess.

04:01.102 --> 04:01.823
[SPEAKER_00]: Now I don't know.

04:02.543 --> 04:03.343
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to guess.

04:04.504 --> 04:08.646
[SPEAKER_00]: WWE is going to get a full court press from ESPN on this show.

04:08.666 --> 04:08.706
[SPEAKER_00]: So

04:11.008 --> 04:25.991
[SPEAKER_00]: If you, we're going to sit in the chair in the booking chair of Tony Khan and try and come up with some major matches that he could use to compete against WWE show.

04:26.051 --> 04:31.172
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, the only show we know for sure about Russell Palusa is seeing it in Lesner.

04:32.093 --> 04:32.973
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to guess.

04:34.624 --> 04:38.526
[SPEAKER_00]: This shows probably going to be bigger than whatever they're going to do for survivors.

04:38.686 --> 04:41.928
[SPEAKER_00]: Survivor series is a little bit of a cheat code because it has the war games.

04:42.568 --> 04:48.512
[SPEAKER_00]: But I feel WWE's considering the September show, probably the most important show.

04:50.193 --> 04:56.676
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe even more important than John Cena's retirement match, which is going to be on the Saturday Night's Management, which will be our third topic that we'll talk about.

04:57.417 --> 05:03.440
[SPEAKER_00]: But we could get Drew and Cody on that show.

05:04.640 --> 05:11.332
[SPEAKER_00]: we could get whatever the big match will be for real Ripley on that show.

05:12.194 --> 05:13.195
[SPEAKER_00]: We could get

05:15.877 --> 05:27.044
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess, you know, whatever the fallout of Roman Reigns and Bronson read, like I just feel like we're gonna get all the big dogs on this show because WWE just wants to throw everything.

05:27.104 --> 05:35.329
[SPEAKER_00]: And they have an excuse by saying this is our first ESPN show that doesn't have anything to do with AEW, which will they, they will never mention publicly.

05:35.709 --> 05:37.691
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's a two, it's two fold, right?

05:37.731 --> 05:40.793
[SPEAKER_00]: You wanna have a big show to kick off your ESPN relationship.

05:41.413 --> 05:43.955
[SPEAKER_00]: And the reason the show exists is because you wanna

05:44.815 --> 05:49.465
[SPEAKER_00]: do whatever you can to kill all out competitively.

05:49.625 --> 05:50.907
[SPEAKER_00]: So let's

05:52.795 --> 05:55.636
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's try and come up with some big AEW matches here.

05:56.137 --> 06:03.620
[SPEAKER_00]: You watched, at least you watched the men's title match in the women's title match, so you kind of know what those results are.

06:05.020 --> 06:10.303
[SPEAKER_00]: What would you do for those two titles on the next show?

06:10.323 --> 06:13.584
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I have an idea for the women's title that I think would be big.

06:13.984 --> 06:20.007
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not quite sure I have the best match for the men's title, but I have something that could be intriguing.

06:22.652 --> 06:31.739
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, for let's go with the women's first if you're talking the biggest and and I would say like I wouldn't do this because I think it's too soon.

06:33.320 --> 06:37.603
[SPEAKER_01]: In fact, I would wait on this match until next year's all in honestly if I could.

06:39.184 --> 06:41.486
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean the biggest match they could do is Mercedes and Tony.

06:42.691 --> 06:44.412
[SPEAKER_01]: And make it for both belts.

06:45.052 --> 06:46.173
[SPEAKER_01]: How about all the belts?

06:47.094 --> 06:48.274
[SPEAKER_01]: You could do it for all the belts.

06:48.634 --> 06:54.037
[SPEAKER_01]: Now my other idea and our topic kind of ties into that as well of what we're going to do later.

06:54.678 --> 07:02.302
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, you can make it for all the belts, but then like why would Mercedes put up like nine belts against one like that, you know, it doesn't really make a lot of sense for her.

07:02.502 --> 07:05.064
[SPEAKER_00]: or because she wants the shot after losing.

07:05.084 --> 07:07.786
[SPEAKER_00]: That you could have Adley does she want it.

07:07.847 --> 07:10.389
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, she's going to put up all of her belts against Tony's belts.

07:10.789 --> 07:15.213
[SPEAKER_01]: You could do a triple threat and have a theme in there as well and put her belt on the line too.

07:15.233 --> 07:21.818
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, you know, and then that way Mercedes has a chance to, you know, get up to what eleven I guess would be.

07:21.838 --> 07:24.100
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, so yeah, I would do that.

07:24.180 --> 07:26.882
[SPEAKER_01]: And then the other one and I don't know if this is what you were getting at.

07:27.183 --> 07:29.925
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, and I don't know how big this would be.

07:30.741 --> 07:34.183
[SPEAKER_01]: But I feel like Tony might think it would be bigger than it actually is.

07:35.624 --> 07:39.606
[SPEAKER_01]: You could bring in Beth Phoenix in Toronto.

07:40.247 --> 07:46.951
[SPEAKER_01]: That might get over really big because she's Adam Copeland's wife and people know that.

07:46.991 --> 07:48.512
[SPEAKER_01]: She was a big star in WWE.

07:48.552 --> 07:50.393
[SPEAKER_01]: She's a Hall of Famer and they're Hall of Fame.

07:50.533 --> 07:53.995
[SPEAKER_01]: So you could do that if you don't want to do Mercedes Tony right away.

07:54.255 --> 07:58.798
[SPEAKER_01]: And then of course the other one would be, I mean, and this could be big first thing, it could bring back Brit.

07:59.499 --> 08:03.141
[SPEAKER_01]: But I don't think they're going to do that.

08:03.181 --> 08:04.201
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know.

08:04.261 --> 08:10.364
[SPEAKER_01]: And like, yeah, and then everybody else that's available out there, like I don't really know, like, you know, who's who's out there, you know?

08:11.842 --> 08:24.485
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a Brit fan and I think the, uh, maybe her lack of wrestling is is a little overrated to me, but I know that the AEW fans definitely have an opinion on on her wrestling skills.

08:25.685 --> 08:26.806
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, that would be that would be interesting.

08:26.826 --> 08:27.986
[SPEAKER_00]: They would get the internet talking.

08:28.026 --> 08:28.546
[SPEAKER_00]: That's for sure.

08:28.566 --> 08:29.986
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, if that's what you're after, right?

08:30.006 --> 08:32.507
[SPEAKER_00]: Because that's what Debbie both companies are going to be after.

08:33.574 --> 08:46.667
[SPEAKER_01]: the talk of the town, so bringing and you know, and you'd be doing it right after bringing back Wardlow and bringing back, you know, kill switch, who people kind of maybe had jungle boy, bring back the jungle boy.

08:47.047 --> 08:57.817
[SPEAKER_01]: And then for the men, I mean, I think Hangman and Mox is probably the biggest match you could do and you could say that Hangman, even though he's already beat him in the rematch, you could say he wants revenge for Will.

08:59.118 --> 09:05.061
[SPEAKER_01]: and then hang an mjf is the other big one that you know you could do and but obviously would have to be mjf caching in his contract.

09:06.602 --> 09:11.644
[SPEAKER_01]: Assuming we were talking about this for the show I think he didn't cash it in so I think he's still got that thing.

09:12.884 --> 09:20.248
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, so my man's title match is some one of two things either some sort of rematch but it would have to be heavily stipulated.

09:21.588 --> 09:24.429
[SPEAKER_00]: Because you're going to have mjf loses due to three times in a year.

09:26.480 --> 09:27.560
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a flaw.

09:28.741 --> 09:38.184
[SPEAKER_00]: You could add Mark Briscoe to the match, like for instance, MJF wants to add, you know, wants to utilize his contract.

09:38.664 --> 09:44.165
[SPEAKER_00]: And Tony Khan comes out and says, hey, you know, I kind of let you do this thing, but this is not what this contract is about.

09:44.846 --> 09:50.227
[SPEAKER_00]: We have rules to this thing, which I guess he explained it at the post show press conference last night.

09:50.707 --> 09:55.509
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we have something about, you have to lock it in a week before the show or something.

09:56.908 --> 09:57.589
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay, okay.

09:57.629 --> 09:59.470
[SPEAKER_01]: I miss, because I saw something like that.

09:59.510 --> 10:04.113
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought what he was saying was you have to do it within a week of winning it, and I'm like, well, that's stupid.

10:04.474 --> 10:06.115
[SPEAKER_01]: But okay, what you're saying makes more sense.

10:06.275 --> 10:13.820
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Tony Kongos, but I'll make you a deal, you get, you get the match, but we're adding Mark Briscoe to the match.

10:14.641 --> 10:22.366
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you have Mark Briscoe in there to take the pin so that MJF doesn't have to take yet another pin in the match.

10:22.406 --> 10:23.467
[SPEAKER_00]: And you know, Mark Briscoe,

10:24.347 --> 10:46.495
[SPEAKER_00]: if they really wanted to because I think they've done a poor job of it you talk about the people's champion if you just build this guy up a little bit and have him get three or four wins on television before this main event like skies made in the shade he is so popular and he's so good he has so much like like the fan base just respects him so much

10:47.815 --> 10:55.561
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it would be in addition to the match, but I don't know, you know, I have no idea what, but that's just kind of something that I would be interested in.

10:55.661 --> 10:57.122
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Fernando's idea.

10:57.142 --> 11:02.206
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I think that is going to happen at the CMLL line of research.

11:02.306 --> 11:04.367
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, you're talking about the Mr. Go match?

11:04.807 --> 11:05.168
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

11:05.448 --> 11:12.093
[SPEAKER_01]: But, man, if they could do that match in AWS, that might bring in a completely different audience.

11:13.113 --> 11:28.868
[SPEAKER_01]: you know, that like Mexican fans, you know, Hispanic fans and even people in Mexico, like would be really interested in and not just master that you do a hair, do a mask versus title and hair because mystical mentioned his hair as well.

11:29.549 --> 11:33.092
[SPEAKER_01]: That could be something that garners a whole kind of other

11:34.053 --> 11:35.955
[SPEAKER_01]: media attention that we don't even think about.

11:36.576 --> 11:41.841
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, what is what is AEW's Mexican paper view business like though?

11:42.061 --> 11:42.501
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

11:42.642 --> 11:44.403
[SPEAKER_00]: It's probably very minimal, right?

11:44.664 --> 11:45.965
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but there might be big for that.

11:46.919 --> 11:58.329
[SPEAKER_00]: But if you're worried about WWE eating up the oxygen for your weekend, I'm not sure leaning on CMLL is the answer.

11:58.949 --> 12:01.411
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm not sure that there's anything they can do.

12:01.832 --> 12:08.918
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, like to take away, like Brock and Sena is the biggest match any company could put on right now.

12:09.578 --> 12:11.239
[SPEAKER_01]: Or Brock and Cody, I should say.

12:12.925 --> 12:16.047
[SPEAKER_01]: So, I don't know, or Brock and Cena, yeah, yeah, Brock and Cena.

12:16.548 --> 12:26.756
[SPEAKER_01]: So, like, you know, two the biggest stars of the last twenty five years, like, you know, and, you know, be seen as last, like, big time paper view match single print and paper view match probably.

12:27.957 --> 12:29.499
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, that's, that's huge.

12:29.539 --> 12:31.160
[SPEAKER_01]: And I don't know what can compete with that.

12:31.220 --> 12:34.963
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're talking about mainstream media, but if you want to reach

12:35.884 --> 12:40.536
[SPEAKER_01]: Hard core wrestling fans and wrestling media like something like that.

12:40.556 --> 12:41.018
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

12:41.098 --> 12:44.487
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe like I think you got to think outside the box a little bit.

12:45.400 --> 12:49.121
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I'm totally fine with MJF and Mystico.

12:49.261 --> 12:53.603
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think they've presented Mystico on a. W. television as a big enough star.

12:53.703 --> 12:55.924
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's got to be part of the deal.

12:56.564 --> 13:01.046
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you can try for the next three weeks, but who knows what Mystico's schedule is like.

13:01.106 --> 13:02.507
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, and crazy.

13:02.827 --> 13:05.068
[SPEAKER_00]: It is the, when is the anniversary show?

13:05.448 --> 13:07.128
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it might be that's him weekend.

13:10.270 --> 13:11.050
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just going to look it up.

13:12.193 --> 13:13.074
[SPEAKER_01]: September, nineteenth.

13:13.994 --> 13:14.735
[SPEAKER_01]: The day before.

13:15.215 --> 13:16.736
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

13:17.096 --> 13:19.818
[SPEAKER_01]: And MJF is probably going to be wrestling on that match.

13:19.838 --> 13:23.060
[SPEAKER_01]: So maybe he's out for for this September, twentieth.

13:24.721 --> 13:34.768
[SPEAKER_01]: One thing I thought of and this wouldn't be for the title, but what if Tony brought in Goldberg to Facebook to use to are to face some is word love the real retirement match.

13:35.188 --> 13:36.529
[SPEAKER_01]: Gordon Goldberg and Wardlow.

13:39.372 --> 13:41.613
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like I mean, that would get some attention.

13:42.714 --> 13:54.498
[SPEAKER_01]: And you know, and he can cut some promos on WWE, get all the AW fans fired up, you know, because that's what that would be like it would be Goldberg just saying if you triple H, you know, you could.

13:54.518 --> 13:55.819
[SPEAKER_00]: What about the fact that?

13:56.744 --> 13:59.665
[SPEAKER_00]: when John Cena does his retirement match on Tender tonight's main event.

14:00.445 --> 14:05.067
[SPEAKER_00]: The fact that it's not going to be on broadcast TV and they could play it as long as they want.

14:05.107 --> 14:07.568
[SPEAKER_00]: And so they don't have to cut them off like they cut off Goldberg.

14:07.628 --> 14:09.508
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Goldberg's going to have an opinion on that.

14:09.888 --> 14:10.869
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.

14:10.929 --> 14:11.569
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

14:11.589 --> 14:11.749
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

14:11.789 --> 14:14.090
[SPEAKER_00]: He'll probably go.

14:14.250 --> 14:18.971
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's a match that I heard from some others that I thought was really interesting.

14:19.772 --> 14:22.753
[SPEAKER_00]: What about the young bucks versus Coda Abushi and Kenny Omega?

14:23.813 --> 14:26.494
[SPEAKER_01]: Now that is a big match for a lot of people.

14:27.382 --> 14:32.204
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, like, a lot of people in this chat here bring up a lot of matches that are like really big for hardcore fans.

14:32.484 --> 14:35.945
[SPEAKER_00]: Really good matches, but not marquee, right?

14:35.965 --> 14:39.806
[SPEAKER_00]: You need to we need to stand up for ourself or else W to be asking to eat our lunchmen.

14:39.846 --> 14:46.728
[SPEAKER_01]: But that one may be because the Golden Lovers had a unique popularity and especially if they can promote it correctly.

14:47.468 --> 14:52.230
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, they could appeal to a different type of fan that most of promotion doesn't appeal to.

14:53.349 --> 15:01.683
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, so yeah, that would be, you know, and then combine that with some sort of a marquee name as well, like whatever whatever you got, you know.

15:03.723 --> 15:07.225
[SPEAKER_00]: Another one that has been suggested that I think is really good though.

15:07.245 --> 15:28.393
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the finish would be kind of interesting is a moxley and Darby and the problem is is how strong do you want to keep John until Will comes back because that might be the whole hook of this entire thing is John moxley finding himself

15:29.414 --> 15:40.980
[SPEAKER_00]: to be in the position of strength, even as a heal, because all of his big matches are the idea of the big matches to conquer the indestructible bad guy.

15:41.660 --> 15:50.225
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I don't know if you do that match now, because Mox probably has to win, and I want to mention Jason Robar, who's the one who mentioned this in the chat.

15:50.705 --> 15:54.687
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not something I really thought about until he said it, but I think he's probably right.

15:57.008 --> 16:13.326
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I mean, now and let's they're going to do what they do with Kenny and just forget about the angle when he comes when real comes back because my my thinking like I think what's going to happen when will comes back is he's just going to enter the Owen and win it and go for the title and

16:14.247 --> 16:18.509
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, maybe that means Mox has to be the champion if he really wants to get revenge.

16:19.070 --> 16:19.510
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

16:19.710 --> 16:25.293
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know about going back to Mox with a belt, but I suppose you could do that, but I thought what I would do.

16:25.633 --> 16:33.358
[SPEAKER_00]: By the way, I wanted to shout out, Lady B, who's the one who actually sent us this question and which I thought was fantastic.

16:33.718 --> 16:36.960
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's another one because I think this is the one that we already know is going to happen.

16:37.660 --> 16:40.563
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, FTR against Copeland and Christian.

16:41.244 --> 16:57.662
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that was my first thought, you know, well, we're not even thinking about WWE, but I figured, you know, the location and, you know, that's the big match too for what if, you know, FTR is the one who somehow had a restraining order on on Adam Copeland for a little while.

16:58.678 --> 17:09.044
[SPEAKER_00]: What if they're just not into it and they're like the only reason the only way we're going to fight you guys is if we win you guys retire so that you're completely out of our thing if you put a retirement stipulation on that match.

17:09.704 --> 17:12.046
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that might be bigger than just a normal match.

17:13.487 --> 17:14.327
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah for sure.

17:14.827 --> 17:15.368
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if.

17:16.489 --> 17:19.972
[SPEAKER_01]: You would do that right away, but you could.

17:20.112 --> 17:20.913
[SPEAKER_01]: You certainly could.

17:21.734 --> 17:31.523
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, you know, it's it's too bad they didn't have a little bit more time because I think a TLC match with those two and the bucks as well to be really big.

17:31.743 --> 17:34.746
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Christian and Copeland do not want to do that again.

17:34.806 --> 17:36.348
[SPEAKER_00]: You think no, but.

17:39.808 --> 17:42.071
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, Adam Copeland looks so old on this show.

17:42.251 --> 17:44.033
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I, he is old.

17:44.053 --> 17:48.317
[SPEAKER_01]: He is, but I mean, he hasn't always looked as old as he looked.

17:48.337 --> 17:52.121
[SPEAKER_01]: Like he just wasn't moving great and just I don't know, man.

17:52.341 --> 17:54.323
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, yeah, it's not just the gray.

17:55.064 --> 18:01.130
[SPEAKER_01]: It's there's something else, um, you know, I don't know how many matches he has left, but I know there's a few he wants to do.

18:01.250 --> 18:02.632
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's going to be a big match.

18:02.692 --> 18:04.613
[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't have to be a five star classic.

18:04.674 --> 18:06.956
[SPEAKER_01]: It just really, you know, it can be a great hit.

18:07.636 --> 18:19.268
[SPEAKER_00]: FTR bump like crazy for those guys and you know, when I, when I asked this question, the discord, it was kind of interesting because I don't think anyone suggested the new tag team champions, Bro Dito.

18:20.864 --> 18:21.965
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, who would they restable?

18:21.985 --> 18:22.685
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the thing, right?

18:22.846 --> 18:23.646
[SPEAKER_00]: The box, I guess.

18:23.826 --> 18:29.211
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they're the tag team champions, though, so you would you would think theoretically get a good tag team match.

18:29.291 --> 18:30.572
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they could match.

18:31.052 --> 18:38.938
[SPEAKER_01]: They could end up just doing Brody Edo and FTR on TV and then FTR wins the belts and then they defend against it.

18:39.098 --> 18:40.600
[SPEAKER_00]: That would be so weird.

18:40.640 --> 18:45.323
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, that would be like everyone would know exactly what was up, you know, you know what I mean?

18:45.343 --> 18:45.503
[SPEAKER_01]: Like

18:46.444 --> 18:57.591
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, but I could see that although again, I wouldn't do it because I don't think that that FTR match against edge and Copeland needs or edge and Christian needs the, um, the belts.

18:57.951 --> 18:59.852
[SPEAKER_01]: Like that, you know, you don't, you don't need the belts for that one.

18:59.872 --> 19:03.854
[SPEAKER_00]: So for for Nando suggested Dana Bryan comes out of retirement, which they could do.

19:03.935 --> 19:07.297
[SPEAKER_00]: I just don't want to see it because yeah, like that guy too much.

19:08.437 --> 19:14.361
[SPEAKER_01]: Then it gets hand out like why it would make more sense for you is wrestling mocks, you know, based on what we just saw.

19:15.283 --> 19:28.167
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I even just putting him on the show unless it was like a Zack Saber junior grappling match where he could, you know, just not do any high stuff and just make sure any high spots.

19:28.227 --> 19:31.447
[SPEAKER_00]: He just makes sure you stay on the ground like the like the like the Nigel match.

19:31.467 --> 19:32.648
[SPEAKER_00]: Like he could do the Nigel match.

19:33.228 --> 19:40.370
[SPEAKER_01]: If you're looking at guys on the show who are coming off of a win and don't already have a belt.

19:41.600 --> 19:44.662
[SPEAKER_01]: I have no idea who the best challenger for hangman is.

19:45.842 --> 19:48.644
[SPEAKER_00]: Because like, there's nobody.

19:48.904 --> 19:55.528
[SPEAKER_00]: The best challenger is Takeshita, but Takeshita himself is not strong on AEW television.

19:55.928 --> 20:00.010
[SPEAKER_01]: No, and he's already got an IWGP title match booked for his October.

20:00.630 --> 20:08.495
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, and you're right, like, you know, especially if you were talking about making this like there, not maybe not the WrestleMania, but like their Royal Rumble or their Summers, I have or something.

20:09.175 --> 20:17.961
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I wonder if, you know, and I don't know if you want to talk about the second subject now and kind of tie this into what we're talking about.

20:18.441 --> 20:23.805
[SPEAKER_01]: But what if you started to see two on this show?

20:25.955 --> 20:31.818
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I don't know if they announced this schedule for it, but isn't that a, when did they start that last year?

20:32.018 --> 20:32.978
[SPEAKER_01]: It was like December.

20:32.998 --> 20:34.199
[SPEAKER_01]: It was like after full gear.

20:34.519 --> 20:35.440
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's what I thought.

20:35.780 --> 20:41.242
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, and you know what, no, they couldn't do that because they've already announced those, those, November, November, twenty seventh.

20:41.563 --> 20:44.544
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was was the first week of, or the first week.

20:44.604 --> 20:52.228
[SPEAKER_01]: And they, and they already announced that the December, thirteenth and seventeen shows in the UK are going to be C-two matches on those shows.

20:53.008 --> 20:56.990
[SPEAKER_01]: And last you did again, like you know Jeremy's idea and again, this was going to be our topic.

20:57.690 --> 20:58.871
[SPEAKER_01]: If you started a woman's one.

20:59.891 --> 21:04.053
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that is topic number two and we let's get to that.

21:04.553 --> 21:17.338
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess the only other thing I'll say and we'll shut out, we'll shut down this topic for AEW is, you know, I know people want to cash it up to just kind of slide in a top spot.

21:18.159 --> 21:21.020
[SPEAKER_00]: The problem is, is if he does it as a heel,

21:22.838 --> 21:30.208
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, you know, he could do it against hangman and then, you know, he's got all the Doncouse family has like, thirty five people in it now.

21:31.791 --> 21:36.637
[SPEAKER_00]: And like that's a thing because you have call us as the mouthpiece, the problem with switching in baby face.

21:37.677 --> 21:43.923
[SPEAKER_00]: is that then he loses his mouthpiece and then so do you trust to cash it as outside of the ring charisma?

21:43.943 --> 21:51.890
[SPEAKER_00]: I trust as inside of the ring charisma, but do you trust his character outside of the wrestling ring as a baby face right now?

21:52.110 --> 21:59.136
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't, I don't think they've done literally any development for him to be that top guy, especially on the baby face side.

21:59.557 --> 22:02.619
[SPEAKER_00]: I think if Will Osprey was around

22:03.580 --> 22:16.975
[SPEAKER_00]: He could sort of anoint him in a way, or maybe Kenny Omega could anoint him in a way, but I don't think to catch this ready just to start feeling Will Osprey's slot on the AW television.

22:17.576 --> 22:20.018
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, one more thing on this before you move on.

22:20.438 --> 22:25.141
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll give you, I wrote down my top five matches on this card.

22:25.341 --> 22:27.122
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I'm Tony Khan and I'm trying to compete.

22:28.483 --> 22:30.024
[SPEAKER_01]: Moxley and Hangman for the title.

22:30.945 --> 22:37.289
[SPEAKER_01]: If Hangman, if Moxley doesn't win, he can never challenge for the A, W World title again.

22:38.470 --> 22:39.131
[SPEAKER_01]: That's your step.

22:39.571 --> 22:40.712
[SPEAKER_01]: Never ever.

22:40.772 --> 22:41.252
[SPEAKER_01]: Like Cody.

22:41.612 --> 22:42.353
[SPEAKER_01]: Cody Rhodes.

22:42.713 --> 22:43.854
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

22:44.254 --> 22:45.755
[SPEAKER_01]: FTR gets hedging Copeland.

22:45.795 --> 22:46.456
[SPEAKER_01]: No titles online.

22:47.442 --> 22:50.387
[SPEAKER_01]: Mercedes Tony and Athena for all three belts.

22:51.669 --> 22:56.837
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have to do all Mercedes belts because that's what if they did the WrestleMania sixteen.

22:56.857 --> 23:01.544
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, like two two out of three falls where yeah, or yeah, you could do that.

23:02.681 --> 23:03.241
[SPEAKER_01]: Poor curding.

23:03.261 --> 23:26.532
[SPEAKER_01]: Dars is both of his titles and Darby and Claudio in a in like a TLC type match like just you know whatever you want to call it lights out cage death match whatever Darby and Claudio big big win for Darby there so you know you can set up the mocks match later and Prodito defending the tag team titles against the gold lovers in Canada where can he's from

23:27.567 --> 23:30.988
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Kenny's got to be a big deal on that show.

23:31.088 --> 23:32.248
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that would be a big match.

23:33.468 --> 23:34.548
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, those are my five.

23:36.129 --> 23:38.629
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, I think we have some pretty good ideas.

23:38.849 --> 23:44.870
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm very interested to see what happens because I think I think Tony Khan knows how important the show is.

23:45.891 --> 23:52.772
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, you know, it's like they're coming onto your date and they're coming into your home.

23:53.608 --> 23:55.549
[SPEAKER_00]: And you don't want them to just bulldoze you.

23:55.669 --> 24:03.192
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't you don't have to expect to win because they are the Bohemith of all Bohemiths when it comes to marketing.

24:04.633 --> 24:10.816
[SPEAKER_00]: He will probably have the almost certainly have the better wrestling show to the hardcore wrestling fan base.

24:11.616 --> 24:19.519
[SPEAKER_00]: But I don't know if he'll have the better overall show to the complete wrestling zeitgeist, which is the most important thing for I think

24:20.855 --> 24:25.697
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, that weekend is to just have what's the biggest show was to show that people deemed most important.

24:26.458 --> 24:27.958
[SPEAKER_00]: That's that's a challenge for them.

24:28.098 --> 24:45.026
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm very interested to see like whatever whatever Tony's saving man, this is when you pull out the big guns, my friend, we need, you know, the we need, we need Tony in his best in his like, I don't know if it's army fatigues, I don't know if he's going to wear

24:45.346 --> 24:49.469
[SPEAKER_00]: I black throw the neck brace back of the DX going to work.

24:49.949 --> 24:56.913
[SPEAKER_00]: Throw the neck brace on give us whatever that version of Tony as I hope to see because I want them to pull out all the guns for this one.

24:57.613 --> 24:59.875
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, so the next topic.

25:01.023 --> 25:06.448
[SPEAKER_00]: is like Jeremy suggested, when do you do a female continental classic?

25:07.168 --> 25:13.034
[SPEAKER_00]: And so I pulled up as many people on the AEW roster that I could think of.

25:14.154 --> 25:15.936
[SPEAKER_00]: And let's go through some names.

25:15.996 --> 25:20.900
[SPEAKER_00]: So the men C-two last year had twelve wrestlers.

25:20.980 --> 25:22.241
[SPEAKER_00]: So there were two brackets

25:24.427 --> 25:26.709
[SPEAKER_00]: or two draws with six people in it each.

25:27.209 --> 25:32.593
[SPEAKER_00]: So I wanted to see if we could figure out who those twelve would be.

25:33.953 --> 25:39.477
[SPEAKER_00]: So the twelve could be, where's my notes here?

25:39.617 --> 25:43.240
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, obviously Mercedes and Tony, those are easy.

25:45.201 --> 25:47.222
[SPEAKER_00]: Athena, that would be another easy one.

25:48.628 --> 25:52.151
[SPEAKER_00]: Jamie Hayter, as long as she's healthy, I think that's another easy one.

25:52.171 --> 25:53.112
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's four.

25:53.892 --> 25:56.955
[SPEAKER_00]: You would put Willow and you would put Chris there.

25:56.975 --> 25:57.876
[SPEAKER_00]: You get to six.

25:58.636 --> 26:00.878
[SPEAKER_00]: Then it starts to become a little dice here.

26:01.679 --> 26:04.341
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they would probably want Megan Bane in there.

26:05.302 --> 26:06.122
[SPEAKER_00]: That would be seven.

26:06.883 --> 26:09.305
[SPEAKER_00]: Would you put Mina Sherickawa in there?

26:09.765 --> 26:10.346
[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.

26:10.726 --> 26:11.006
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

26:11.046 --> 26:11.707
[SPEAKER_00]: So there's eight.

26:11.727 --> 26:13.748
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

26:14.549 --> 26:15.310
[SPEAKER_00]: Queen Aminata.

26:16.607 --> 26:19.348
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so you have the queen.

26:22.029 --> 26:24.330
[SPEAKER_00]: You're risking though with the queen.

26:24.370 --> 26:27.291
[SPEAKER_00]: You are risking the injury factor here.

26:27.672 --> 26:30.173
[SPEAKER_01]: You are, you are, but I mean, you know, you're doing that with.

26:30.273 --> 26:30.513
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

26:30.553 --> 26:33.834
[SPEAKER_00]: So no, so let's let's put the queen.

26:34.374 --> 26:35.615
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's put tech in there.

26:36.035 --> 26:36.815
[SPEAKER_00]: So now that's ten.

26:38.676 --> 26:40.697
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

26:41.237 --> 26:44.899
[SPEAKER_00]: So let me give you the list of the rest of the people will pick two out of these folks.

26:44.919 --> 26:45.059
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

26:46.703 --> 26:50.584
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, I don't think it's going to happen, but you brought her name up before Britt Baker.

26:50.864 --> 26:51.745
[SPEAKER_00]: Not going to happen.

26:52.025 --> 26:55.566
[SPEAKER_00]: Not her strength either to do a bunch of matches.

26:56.406 --> 26:57.507
[SPEAKER_00]: There's Thunder Rosa.

26:58.627 --> 27:04.029
[SPEAKER_00]: There's Hikaru Shida who we have no idea where she is.

27:04.049 --> 27:05.329
[SPEAKER_00]: I think these issues.

27:05.749 --> 27:06.089
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

27:06.349 --> 27:07.049
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that might be hard.

[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_00]: Julia Hart.

27:11.351 --> 27:12.371
[SPEAKER_00]: Diana Parazo.

27:13.471 --> 27:14.432

[SPEAKER_00]: Naila Rose, I don't know what Naila Rose is doing.

27:47.148 --> 27:53.076
[SPEAKER_00]: Someone asked someone asked us about Camille last night because of the idea that Wardlow came back.

27:53.136 --> 27:54.478
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm not so sure about that one.

27:55.259 --> 27:59.364
[SPEAKER_00]: Penelope Ford, Alex Windsor and Tynello.

28:00.145 --> 28:00.405
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

28:00.425 --> 28:00.606
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

28:01.026 --> 28:02.007
[SPEAKER_01]: Alex wins her for sure.

28:02.027 --> 28:03.569
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.

28:03.909 --> 28:06.192
[SPEAKER_01]: She should have been in the in like the top ones.

28:06.252 --> 28:08.134
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't even put her in there against over Queen.

28:08.975 --> 28:10.276
[SPEAKER_01]: I would say Anna J for the other one.

28:11.137 --> 28:12.038
[SPEAKER_01]: She did the start.

28:12.118 --> 28:14.180
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm Grand Prix last year.

28:14.861 --> 28:15.242
[SPEAKER_00]: So okay.

28:15.262 --> 28:16.303
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's twelve.

28:16.983 --> 28:17.104
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

28:18.704 --> 28:20.986
[SPEAKER_00]: would there be an outside person?

28:21.046 --> 28:25.370
[SPEAKER_00]: Could you bring in someone from startup, bring in someone from CMLL, bring back Bozilla, baby?

28:25.390 --> 28:26.851
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean, yeah, Bozilla seemed to get over.

28:26.871 --> 28:27.111
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:27.131 --> 28:27.832
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:27.852 --> 28:28.332
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:28.352 --> 28:28.592
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:28.612 --> 28:29.073
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:29.553 --> 28:29.813
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:29.853 --> 28:30.154
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:30.174 --> 28:30.474
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:30.494 --> 28:30.834
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:30.854 --> 28:31.134
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:31.154 --> 28:31.435
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:31.455 --> 28:31.815
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:31.855 --> 28:32.275
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:32.295 --> 28:32.616
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:32.636 --> 28:32.876
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:32.916 --> 28:33.176
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:33.196 --> 28:33.436
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:33.456 --> 28:33.817
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:33.837 --> 28:34.297
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:34.317 --> 28:34.577
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.

28:34.597 --> 28:34.857
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:34.878 --> 28:35.138
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:35.158 --> 28:35.498
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:35.518 --> 28:35.838
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:35.858 --> 28:36.139
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:36.159 --> 28:36.439
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:36.459 --> 28:36.779
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:36.799 --> 28:37.139
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:37.159 --> 28:37.520
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:37.540 --> 28:37.980
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:38.000 --> 28:38.300
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:38.320 --> 28:38.561
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:38.581 --> 28:38.841
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:38.861 --> 28:39.481
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:39.501 --> 28:39.762
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:39.782 --> 28:40.282
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.

28:40.882 --> 28:46.764
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, she was in the semifinals because she got eliminated from the semifinals and that's Tony said that's how she was available.

28:47.225 --> 28:48.485
[SPEAKER_00]: She's got he wrestling.

28:48.605 --> 28:50.906
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but no, like I don't know how good the matches are.

28:50.926 --> 28:51.906
[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen her twice.

28:52.767 --> 28:59.769
[SPEAKER_01]: This match that she did on the weekend and and it gets Megan being on WrestleMania weekend and I mean, they were both fine.

29:00.009 --> 29:00.869
[SPEAKER_01]: Like she's she's good.

29:00.909 --> 29:01.310
[SPEAKER_01]: She's good.

29:01.350 --> 29:02.630
[SPEAKER_01]: She's a power wrestler.

29:02.970 --> 29:07.272
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I don't I don't think she's any better or worse than Naila Rose, but she's new.

29:08.094 --> 29:11.017
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and she's really young.

29:11.277 --> 29:12.077
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, twenty one.

29:12.097 --> 29:16.041
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, you could bring in a reho.

29:16.421 --> 29:17.542
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if she's still hurt.

29:17.902 --> 29:18.663
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, good.

29:18.763 --> 29:19.684
[SPEAKER_01]: I mentioned reho.

29:20.084 --> 29:23.047
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, or, you know, people up Siri.

29:24.372 --> 29:27.295
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, you know, that would, I mean, that would be huge if Tom could get her.

29:28.235 --> 29:30.137
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and, you know, and there's other names.

29:30.277 --> 29:38.444
[SPEAKER_01]: And I don't, I'm not up on the start of women as much as I should be, but I know there's a lot of great names over there that are all good wrestlers.

29:38.524 --> 29:41.927
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, whenever they show up, they seem to people get excited.

29:41.947 --> 29:49.273
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, oh, uh, Maya Yamashita is one that has had some, uh, you know, A, W, exposure before and she's really good as well.

29:50.157 --> 29:58.223
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the problem with bringing in some folks from the outside is you're, you're going to want an AEW woman to win it.

29:58.263 --> 29:59.003
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's right.

29:59.264 --> 30:01.545
[SPEAKER_00]: Spoils the, well, it doesn't.

30:01.605 --> 30:02.126
[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't.

30:02.166 --> 30:04.427
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, they could make it to the semi finals and stuff.

30:04.467 --> 30:11.372
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I mean, you know, you got to remember like the, there's always like a guaranteed win guy on the, in each block on the men's one, too.

30:11.452 --> 30:17.617
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, we had J. Leethel in there one year and then you guys see that Yuri went, oh, five and one or whatever it was.

30:18.355 --> 30:25.221
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, Brody King was in there to, you know, who I'll job for pay, you know, I think, you know, I'll draw it.

30:25.241 --> 30:27.863
[SPEAKER_01]: It was in there and he was on his way out and he won a bunch of matches.

30:27.943 --> 30:29.585
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, you think and do whatever they want.

30:30.378 --> 30:32.460
[SPEAKER_01]: But I would also say like, I'm not sure I would do it.

30:33.180 --> 30:33.881
[SPEAKER_01]: It's saying all that.

30:33.941 --> 30:43.268
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I mean, obviously the time is right and everything, but I feel like if you do it too close to the men's, it's going to be compared to the men's and it's probably not going to be as good.

30:43.949 --> 30:49.293
[SPEAKER_01]: So you'd probably want to separate like see maybe in the summer, but then they already have the Owen.

30:49.453 --> 30:51.174
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know when you do.

30:52.576 --> 30:53.917
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got to run this thing, man.

30:53.977 --> 31:00.404
[SPEAKER_00]: We cannot worry about the perception of these matches is not being up to now.

31:00.424 --> 31:00.864
[SPEAKER_00]: Just do it.

31:01.125 --> 31:03.627
[SPEAKER_01]: Do it at the same time then and have like December.

31:03.647 --> 31:07.812
[SPEAKER_01]: Do you know, November, December, BC two season and all the matches on TV or C two matches.

31:08.655 --> 31:10.636
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, I would do something like that.

31:11.877 --> 31:26.347
[SPEAKER_00]: The other thing that you could do is kind of like what you said is if you wanted to start it early, you could kind of do one of the tournaments, sort of one of the tournaments, a couple weeks early just to kind of get a head of things.

31:26.847 --> 31:29.469
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, so I don't know if they're going to do it.

31:30.330 --> 31:31.971
[SPEAKER_00]: I would love to see it just because I think

31:33.916 --> 32:01.348
[SPEAKER_00]: you know we have this idea of how much women's wrestling means to television and why there's only sometimes one women's match and this would really force them to put any women's matches on and some matches in the main event segment and some matches in the opening segment and so you'd really be able to test and experiment with if you and and I think Tony would be up to the challenge of trying to book it to make it very very interesting

32:02.228 --> 32:03.630
[SPEAKER_00]: So I would, I would do it.

32:04.671 --> 32:12.139
[SPEAKER_00]: But the thing is that then you're creating another women's singles title.

32:13.101 --> 32:13.381
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

32:13.641 --> 32:16.224
[SPEAKER_00]: And so you only have five.

32:16.645 --> 32:19.007
[SPEAKER_00]: And so do you have now three women with titles?

32:19.107 --> 32:20.869
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you have, you know, not counting our OH?

32:22.010 --> 32:24.232
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, do you put two of the titles on one of the women?

32:24.312 --> 32:26.173
[SPEAKER_00]: Like that's something that they would have to think about.

32:26.193 --> 32:32.877
[SPEAKER_01]: They'll do the thing where they say, okay, you know, since Athena and Mercedes and Tony are in it, all three of their belts are on the line.

32:33.017 --> 32:36.819
[SPEAKER_01]: So the winner is the triple crown champion, which won't be all three belts.

32:36.920 --> 32:37.820
[SPEAKER_01]: It'll be a fourth belt.

32:38.220 --> 32:38.420
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

32:38.681 --> 32:38.961
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

32:39.021 --> 32:39.441
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

32:39.781 --> 32:40.041
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

32:40.542 --> 32:46.786
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, so Lady B also mentioned, you know, doing a women's blood and gut smash and

32:48.326 --> 33:00.753
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, you could do more cage matches like the women's all star version of whatever this made event was this death match for you know, you could add something like that on the on the September twenty show two.

33:00.813 --> 33:03.754
[SPEAKER_01]: I know a lot of their fans really want to see something like that.

33:04.234 --> 33:08.737
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if they could do a blood and guts because I don't know if the building is set up for it, but

33:09.497 --> 33:12.738
[SPEAKER_01]: If, if it's possible, I would definitely think about doing it.

33:13.159 --> 33:19.922
[SPEAKER_01]: Tony's been asked about the women C-two as well, and and he basically the excuse he gave was the same one about the tagging titles, like it's all injuries.

33:20.642 --> 33:22.883
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, so we just named twelve women.

33:23.383 --> 33:23.543
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

33:23.583 --> 33:24.904
[SPEAKER_00]: That I can tell more pretty good.

33:25.524 --> 33:34.933
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, yeah, hold up the belts, but that's fine, you know, because these are theoretically really big matches and, you know, and your TV can revolve around them.

33:35.033 --> 33:41.879
[SPEAKER_01]: And people, I think the C-II has a reputation now that it's appointment viewing for a segment of fans.

33:41.959 --> 33:46.664
[SPEAKER_01]: So if you add women into that, hopefully by extension, they can have that as well.

33:48.139 --> 33:59.288
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, our last topic here, it is a question that John Lorock and I were trying to solve on a fighting podcast last week, which is, who should be John Cena's last match?

34:01.673 --> 34:02.913
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's a tough deal.

34:03.033 --> 34:05.854
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you are you looking for like it's okay.

34:05.874 --> 34:09.195
[SPEAKER_00]: So we know it's on Saturday night's main event and we know it's on peacock.

34:09.235 --> 34:13.916
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's not on NBC in prime time.

34:13.996 --> 34:17.657
[SPEAKER_00]: They're not going to necessarily be worried about drawing a crazy by rate.

34:17.757 --> 34:28.919
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, a crazy rating, even though they wouldn't anyways because it's just wrestling and we know what the top level Saturday night's main event show does not not fantastic.

34:28.959 --> 34:31.080
[SPEAKER_00]: It does a little bit over Smackdown probably.

34:31.800 --> 34:39.003
[SPEAKER_00]: So without the worry about that, do you go with best match possible for John?

34:39.023 --> 34:45.126
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you go with most memorable rival for John?

34:45.146 --> 34:50.549
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you go with a match that maybe folks didn't know if they would see again for John?

34:50.729 --> 34:53.190
[SPEAKER_00]: How would you handle this scenario?

34:55.391 --> 34:57.232
[SPEAKER_01]: My first thought was punk.

34:58.308 --> 34:59.248
[SPEAKER_00]: But which we saw.

34:59.748 --> 35:00.369
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I know.

35:01.129 --> 35:04.330
[SPEAKER_01]: And then my second thought was the word in which we already saw.

35:04.750 --> 35:10.792
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's like those were my two initial, like when you asked the questions, then you went over the names and I was like, oh, yeah.

35:11.092 --> 35:17.874
[SPEAKER_01]: So I mean, the other obvious one that I really liked was, um, brawn, our, our

35:19.194 --> 35:20.555
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Bronn, Bronn, Bronn, Breaker.

35:21.876 --> 35:28.279
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, for the reasons, you know, that you guys said, you know, you put over a young guy in the way out.

35:28.339 --> 35:28.980
[SPEAKER_00]: He's the guy.

35:29.040 --> 35:31.681
[SPEAKER_00]: He's the guy that they have the rocket strap to his back.

35:31.961 --> 35:40.806
[SPEAKER_01]: Now the other thing you could do is you could have it be a tag team match and have him kind of put over someone by association.

35:40.846 --> 35:43.528
[SPEAKER_01]: And the one I like is trick.

35:45.127 --> 35:52.409
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, you know, because they had some interaction in NXT and he's a guy that theoretically three to five years from now is a WrestleMania main eventer.

35:52.829 --> 36:00.111
[SPEAKER_01]: So you've got seen a given him the rub on the way out and maybe it's like seen a and and trick against Braun and Braun.

36:00.551 --> 36:12.854
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, Braun and Braun Center something like that or or even against Melodyl Miz, you know, because you got the history there, you know, because that that's an easy match and you know, and it's it's one of these you called them that by the way.

36:13.334 --> 36:13.794
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a name.

36:15.354 --> 36:16.835
[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, what am I going to call it?

36:16.875 --> 36:23.678
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a dumb name, but you know, it's like a ridiculous name and you just leaned into the ridiculous.

36:23.898 --> 36:26.780
[SPEAKER_01]: I just threw it in there like it's part of the vernacular.

36:27.260 --> 36:28.921
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, you know, they're awesome.

36:32.122 --> 36:35.605
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no, and they're getting all the wins too.

36:36.065 --> 36:45.731
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, no, I mean, you could do that, but I, like, however you do it, like I like the idea of scene and trick, you could even do scene and trick as a one on one match.

36:46.632 --> 36:47.573
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, trick is a heal.

36:48.613 --> 37:05.349
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, you know, when he's a teenage champion right now, I don't know if you have it for the teenage title, um, but you know, that that would be a fun match, you know, like it would great atmosphere and, um, you know, and trick it just bump around for the guy, it'd be, you know, that'd be fun too.

37:06.910 --> 37:09.853
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think, um,

37:12.091 --> 37:18.055
[SPEAKER_00]: The originally when John and I were talking about this, we thought, like, what's the match they haven't done yet, which would be the biggest?

37:18.695 --> 37:21.257
[SPEAKER_00]: And it would be Roman, but they're both baby faces now.

37:21.317 --> 37:23.078
[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't think that they'll do that.

37:23.218 --> 37:26.160
[SPEAKER_00]: And Roman probably doesn't work in December these days.

37:28.501 --> 37:39.448
[SPEAKER_00]: And so some with a little bit of history to them, Lady B talks about the one that would have been kind of perfect Kevin Owens, but he's hurt, he's got the neck injury.

37:40.428 --> 37:46.569
[SPEAKER_00]: AJ Styles is also one that would be kind of nice, but he is a baby face as well.

37:47.949 --> 37:57.531
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, which leads me to wonder if it's just going to be Seth Rollins because Seth Rollins is the answer to everything when it comes to stuff.

37:58.731 --> 37:58.991
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

37:59.391 --> 37:59.951
[SPEAKER_00]: Dirty Dom.

38:01.092 --> 38:01.252
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh.

38:03.052 --> 38:03.372
[SPEAKER_00]: Dirty.

38:03.492 --> 38:05.312
[SPEAKER_00]: Do the Dirty Dom match in AAA show.

38:05.392 --> 38:06.493
[SPEAKER_00]: John Cena and AAA.

38:07.233 --> 38:07.753
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god.

38:08.693 --> 38:08.793
[SPEAKER_00]: Um,

38:09.838 --> 38:10.220
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what?

38:10.420 --> 38:12.266
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Roman is the biggest one for sure.

38:13.550 --> 38:15.496
[SPEAKER_01]: And they haven't had a match ever.

38:16.788 --> 38:20.890
[SPEAKER_00]: Dave wrestled before, but I think it was on like some random paperview.

38:20.910 --> 38:22.570
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think it was a big big match.

38:22.630 --> 38:23.991
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe I haven't had them.

38:24.091 --> 38:24.391
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.

38:24.411 --> 38:24.691
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what?

38:24.711 --> 38:25.211
[SPEAKER_01]: They had no.

38:25.231 --> 38:29.573
[SPEAKER_01]: They had that big feud in uh, twenty seventeen where Cena ate them for lunch.

38:30.273 --> 38:30.873
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, on the mic.

38:31.413 --> 38:31.874
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

38:32.254 --> 38:38.096
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, because Roman lost his spot and like in couldn't remember his line and Cena just pounced on him.

38:38.736 --> 38:39.917
[SPEAKER_01]: It was brutal.

38:40.397 --> 38:41.277
[SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, come on.

38:41.297 --> 38:41.497
[SPEAKER_01]: Come on.

38:41.537 --> 38:42.097
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, wait for you.

38:44.220 --> 38:47.621
[SPEAKER_01]: And the reason I keep coming back is because you can't do your job.

38:48.233 --> 38:48.853
[SPEAKER_01]: Remember that one?

38:48.873 --> 38:50.853
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, man.

38:51.414 --> 38:51.674
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

38:52.274 --> 38:55.234
[SPEAKER_01]: It was, yeah, I mean, but yeah, he's a heel.

38:55.354 --> 38:58.615
[SPEAKER_01]: So you can't, you can't do, you can't, or the both baby physicians say so.

38:58.635 --> 38:58.995
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

38:59.055 --> 39:05.556
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, here's the one I'm going to tell WWE, please do not even think twice that this can actually happen.

39:06.436 --> 39:11.117
[SPEAKER_00]: Do not want to see the undertaker rolled out in having to do with this stuff.

39:11.157 --> 39:12.297
[SPEAKER_00]: So please don't.

39:13.077 --> 39:14.537
[SPEAKER_01]: There's one I want to see less than that.

39:15.458 --> 39:17.178
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I triple H solo.

39:19.463 --> 39:21.805
[SPEAKER_00]: The promo's leading up to it would be funny, though.

39:22.005 --> 39:24.447
[SPEAKER_00]: I would pick up Jacob.

39:24.528 --> 39:28.991
[SPEAKER_00]: Jacob is also a baby face, but that would be like kind of the ascent on one of them.

39:29.672 --> 39:29.832
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

39:29.872 --> 39:32.395
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think it's that, you know, another we did this exercise.

39:32.875 --> 39:34.316
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think it's now going to be Seth.

39:35.798 --> 39:42.523
[SPEAKER_01]: It might be it might be or again, I think the the other one is bronze, like, you know, that makes a lot of sense for a lot of reasons.

39:42.564 --> 39:44.725
[SPEAKER_01]: And then if that was the case, like bronze is going to beat him.

39:45.907 --> 39:59.036
[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, and, and like, yeah, and if it's Seth, obviously he's not going to win that much either, but yeah, you're going to do like for the title, like it, and then you're going to have like the whole, what, eighteen time never seen me the thing.

39:59.336 --> 40:03.719
[SPEAKER_01]: I laughed on Smackdown when they did that heel intro as a baby face intro.

40:04.353 --> 40:05.974
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I didn't just watch this week.

40:06.034 --> 40:10.737
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, so see, so seen him made the ringing the ring, like an answer.

40:11.097 --> 40:16.039
[SPEAKER_01]: Do the same intro that he did when he was a heal, but the fans were chatting along with it and shared it.

40:16.660 --> 40:18.701
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, and what did you do on this SmackDown?

40:19.847 --> 40:22.588
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, he did a promo, uh, with Logan Paul.

40:22.668 --> 40:25.149
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, you know what, he had a really good promo on Logan Paul actually.

40:25.469 --> 40:30.210
[SPEAKER_01]: It was, uh, he basically just said, yeah, you got all the town in the world, but your piece of crap.

40:30.890 --> 40:32.891
[SPEAKER_01]: And, uh, you know, and, and yeah, it was, it was good.

40:32.911 --> 40:35.052
[SPEAKER_01]: Like it was, it was actually a really good segment I thought.

40:37.012 --> 40:39.053
[SPEAKER_00]: There was nothing else worth watching on the show, really.

40:39.862 --> 40:52.097
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, let's uh, I want to get your that sense you watched most of forbidden or we'll save the end of this to just yeah, I like like literally like everything, but the meat of the main event, but you know, I did see the main of an angle.

40:52.597 --> 40:58.364
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm I'm going to guess that you're going to like the main event, I would suggest that you're going to

40:58.404 --> 41:01.025
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I could kind of like, I skipped through it.

41:01.085 --> 41:02.886
[SPEAKER_00]: You're very, very well done.

41:02.926 --> 41:06.488
[SPEAKER_00]: The way that it was shot, great camera work, big moment.

41:06.508 --> 41:12.231
[SPEAKER_01]: The cage was the cage was the right size, you know, for a match like that too, from what I saw.

41:12.572 --> 41:17.774
[SPEAKER_00]: And I mean, I don't get to do this drop on my show with John anymore, because, you know, he knows.

41:22.738 --> 41:24.679
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it was the ultimate party match.

41:24.820 --> 41:27.301
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think a lot of people were happy with it.

41:27.361 --> 41:35.587
[SPEAKER_00]: I, you know, if you can sort of take yourself out of a lot of those high spots and stuff, you kind of get numb to them.

41:36.108 --> 41:41.652
[SPEAKER_00]: And so like nothing, everything that happens after the biggest thing, like kind of means nothing.

41:41.712 --> 41:44.273
[SPEAKER_00]: And so that's kind of what happened at the end of that match.

41:44.313 --> 41:44.894
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's

41:45.154 --> 41:45.494
[SPEAKER_00]: Well done.

41:45.555 --> 41:56.746
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that like if I'm gonna just go by default and say the main event was was as good as you think I'm gonna think it is and I've no reason to doubt that I thought the other two top matches were both really good as well.

41:57.787 --> 42:03.093
[SPEAKER_01]: The rest of the card I didn't think was up to a w paper view standard.

42:03.313 --> 42:05.796
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, granted is a very high standard.

42:07.162 --> 42:14.749
[SPEAKER_00]: I really liked Kyle Fletcher and Haromo knowing that Haromo had no chance at winning that match and I really liked Zack Saber Jr.

42:14.829 --> 42:18.012
[SPEAKER_00]: And Nigel knowing that Nigel had no chance to win the match.

42:18.032 --> 42:20.274
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I thought those were the next two best matches.

42:20.394 --> 42:21.395
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I'd agree with that.

42:21.735 --> 42:26.880
[SPEAKER_00]: The edge of the match was the one of the worst openers in A to be history probably.

42:27.713 --> 42:35.622
[SPEAKER_01]: But the tag title match was actually pretty good until whatever happened at the end, like the end took it down a lot for me.

42:36.023 --> 42:37.845
[SPEAKER_00]: But you know what about the edge and Christian thing?

42:39.527 --> 42:40.748
[SPEAKER_00]: By the end of it, I was like,

42:41.618 --> 42:42.619
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I like those guys.

42:42.679 --> 42:44.199
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, let's see them together.

42:44.259 --> 42:48.882
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, that's my feeling about this whole thing is, yeah, none of this makes sense.

42:48.922 --> 42:49.762
[SPEAKER_00]: It's all really dumb.

42:50.143 --> 42:52.464
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought the psychology and that match was really bad.

42:52.504 --> 42:56.226
[SPEAKER_00]: By the way, because Luther's source is like, the battle was going on there.

42:56.246 --> 43:02.449
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, he was holding it, um, um, kip up so he could get the doomsday device from edge.

43:02.469 --> 43:03.690
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, what the hell was that?

43:04.770 --> 43:07.472
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the story is supposed to be that like,

43:08.385 --> 43:11.167
[SPEAKER_00]: kill switch like hates Christian more than anything.

43:11.227 --> 43:12.868
[SPEAKER_00]: And so, but yeah, it didn't.

43:12.888 --> 43:17.812
[SPEAKER_00]: The announcers didn't know either, so it made it even worse when they couldn't explain it.

43:17.892 --> 43:19.713
[SPEAKER_00]: And he said, called everything like a shoot, too.

43:19.793 --> 43:26.077
[SPEAKER_01]: So like he's, you know, I think he's great, but like sometimes he's that's confused as we are and doesn't, you know, it doesn't mind saying it.

43:27.058 --> 43:29.119
[SPEAKER_01]: I love Danielson on the show, but it was great.

43:29.259 --> 43:31.421
[SPEAKER_01]: And that will ask for your video package.

43:31.821 --> 43:32.642
[SPEAKER_00]: The best thing on the show.

43:33.464 --> 43:37.425
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, no, Kenny, uh, jamming to um, Bob was the best thing on the show.

43:37.445 --> 43:37.665
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.

43:37.885 --> 43:40.766
[SPEAKER_00]: The fact that Tony got the right to um, Bob was amazing.

43:41.466 --> 43:45.367
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, tying it to the young bucks in this stupid EVP thing.

43:45.447 --> 43:49.428
[SPEAKER_01]: I get I know why it's almost makes it worthwhile like that.

43:49.648 --> 43:56.910
[SPEAKER_01]: And I hate this young buck stuff, but that almost was like, okay, if this is the payoff because you know, I assume that was their theme music.

43:58.037 --> 43:59.779
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think on the Indies.

44:00.079 --> 44:01.260
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

44:01.340 --> 44:09.928
[SPEAKER_00]: The Kenny thing was a little bit of a callback to let the bodies hit the floor where he was just this guy when the music changes or he's the music guy now or whatever.

44:10.628 --> 44:16.613
[SPEAKER_00]: But he's, look, Kenny's the wackiest out of everybody, but he's also a fantastic wrestler.

44:17.854 --> 44:20.257
[SPEAKER_00]: What did you think of the women's title match?

44:21.520 --> 44:21.880
[SPEAKER_00]: Which one?

44:21.900 --> 44:25.985
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, not the same one.

44:26.465 --> 44:28.087
[SPEAKER_01]: No, I thought it was great.

44:28.567 --> 44:37.557
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like I not as like it's up there with the best ones that they've had all year, not quite at the top, but real close.

44:38.518 --> 44:47.651
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, Athena has a formula that she does on our our wage matches and this was kind of that same formula, but Tony's a better wrestler than most of the people she's wrestled.

44:47.751 --> 44:53.979
[SPEAKER_01]: So it was better than most of the our wage matches she's had, but not quite as good as some of the A. W. ones at Tony's had if that.

44:55.040 --> 45:00.962
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but but excellent excellent match like I third best on the show I would probably say but behind the top two.

45:01.423 --> 45:04.064
[SPEAKER_01]: So the show was put together really well.

45:04.544 --> 45:09.846
[SPEAKER_01]: I would say so like someone in the chat said it was the second best paper view the year like I would disagree with that.

45:10.726 --> 45:13.207
[SPEAKER_01]: Not that it wasn't a good show just that they're all great.

45:14.288 --> 45:19.790
[SPEAKER_01]: But it was put together in a way that by the end of it if you really liked the top three matches as much as I did.

45:20.790 --> 45:24.873
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, you would come away thinking that because, you know, you forget about the beginning.

45:25.133 --> 45:29.416
[SPEAKER_00]: I had had a lot of fun, but it's the same thing that I say for every AWS show.

45:29.436 --> 45:30.697
[SPEAKER_00]: I almost

45:31.957 --> 45:33.278
[SPEAKER_00]: and hate is a strong word.

45:33.678 --> 45:59.355
[SPEAKER_00]: I just dislike a lot of the creative to get to the match because it is very much in that niche pro wrestling style that the hardcore fans really enjoy that Tony Khan really enjoys that I don't really enjoy but knowing after the fact I'm gonna enjoy the show because the matches are good and I'm just gonna be like oh yeah well who cares about the storylines to get to the matches if you like the matches?

45:59.895 --> 46:08.859
[SPEAKER_01]: One of the weird things I hit me the low, but why I had a hard time getting into this show for a while was, and it dawned on me, because I saw I watched a pre-show, too.

46:09.619 --> 46:14.722
[SPEAKER_01]: And until we got to, I think it was the Athena Tony match.

46:15.875 --> 46:26.683
[SPEAKER_01]: Every match that I'd seen, and I think we're up to ten at that point, had people in the match that aren't funny, W television leading up to the show for whatever reason.

46:26.723 --> 46:39.331
[SPEAKER_01]: Like we're not just talking about New Japan people, but in some cases, you had people returning from injury, you had, you know, so it's harder to get into it, like Nigel and Zach for instance.

46:40.532 --> 46:43.194
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like they're not Nigel is not a regular wrestler.

46:43.234 --> 46:44.855
[SPEAKER_01]: Zach isn't on a W television.

46:44.895 --> 46:46.396
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, it's a different kind of match.

46:46.876 --> 46:49.297
[SPEAKER_01]: But I've just watched Zach Saber Jr.

46:49.377 --> 46:53.600
[SPEAKER_01]: have nine matches in the last month and probably seven of them were better than this one.

46:54.320 --> 46:58.283
[SPEAKER_01]: So for you, it was it was new and a different style and everything.

46:58.323 --> 46:58.803
[SPEAKER_01]: It was great.

46:58.863 --> 47:00.984
[SPEAKER_01]: But for me, it was like, you know, it was another Zach Saber Jr.

47:01.004 --> 47:01.225
[SPEAKER_01]: match.

47:01.685 --> 47:02.545
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?

47:02.565 --> 47:04.867
[SPEAKER_01]: So maybe I'm spoiled by I just haven't watched the G one.

47:05.387 --> 47:06.008
[SPEAKER_01]: I like the match.

47:06.028 --> 47:06.488
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't get me wrong.

47:06.508 --> 47:07.429
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought it was a good match.

47:07.749 --> 47:12.453
[SPEAKER_01]: Very good match, but, you know, it's some, I've seen Zach wrestle a lot lately.

47:13.073 --> 47:14.374
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, for sure.

47:14.515 --> 47:23.422
[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, the, I guess at the end of the day, what we believed to be kind of like,

47:24.892 --> 47:32.877
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a paper view that sort of exists because of a previous reason that is no longer the reason why it exists today.

47:32.897 --> 47:41.762
[SPEAKER_00]: And it is, I'm sure for Tony, it's kind of like, gosh, this thing is just kind of in the way where I want to get, I have to, we have this partnership.

47:42.482 --> 47:47.405
[SPEAKER_00]: But now again, just to go back to the first topic on this show.

47:48.683 --> 47:49.924
[SPEAKER_00]: This flex time man.

47:49.944 --> 47:57.711
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope he's been you remember when he was in TNA and he was like wearing the like the the short Polos and he's like flexing this muscles a little bit.

47:57.751 --> 47:59.813
[SPEAKER_00]: This is time bring back the neck brace.

47:59.853 --> 48:00.694
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I want to see.

48:00.714 --> 48:04.838
[SPEAKER_00]: This shows me that you're that you're ready for war man.

48:04.978 --> 48:07.260
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to see the ready for war Tony Khan.

48:07.380 --> 48:14.647
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to see what he believes is his best stuff to compete with WWE trying to invade.

48:16.500 --> 48:20.303
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and it's tough because some of the key people that he would use aren't available.

48:20.563 --> 48:20.843
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course.

48:20.863 --> 48:24.125
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Will and Strickland are not going to be on this show more than likely.

48:24.165 --> 48:24.705
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm guessing.

48:25.706 --> 48:27.167
[SPEAKER_00]: Gosh, if they were.

48:28.808 --> 48:31.310
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I believe that he's really hurt.

48:32.130 --> 48:33.071
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, but definitely hurt.

48:33.291 --> 48:35.372
[SPEAKER_00]: But Jeremy and I were more so me.

48:35.552 --> 48:45.618
[SPEAKER_00]: I theorized yesterday that based off of what we see in Pro Wrestling right now with carrying cross, trying to work shoot stuff with them, trying to work shoot the wrong killings thing.

48:46.038 --> 48:51.862
[SPEAKER_00]: Like every the Seth Rollins thing of all, even though everybody in their mom knew that he wasn't really hurt.

48:52.402 --> 49:00.487
[SPEAKER_00]: Like there's that, there's that style of kind of trying to work the internet and wrestling today.

49:01.575 --> 49:07.376
[SPEAKER_00]: And so if we'll saw the doctor and he's like, hmm, maybe you don't actually need surgery right now.

49:07.576 --> 49:11.017
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, maybe he does come back sooner than later and pushes it off.

49:11.117 --> 49:18.898
[SPEAKER_00]: But, you know, I just, that's the part where I'm, I'm like, I, I will believe that will is having surgery when he has surgery.

49:18.958 --> 49:20.839
[SPEAKER_00]: And for me, I hope that he doesn't have to have it.

49:20.859 --> 49:23.239
[SPEAKER_00]: I actually hope he's faking, but I don't think he's faking.

49:23.459 --> 49:25.240
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's just, Cody thinks it's a work.

49:25.940 --> 49:26.260
[SPEAKER_00]: Does he?

49:28.467 --> 49:29.708
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure Will is really hurt.

49:29.788 --> 49:33.230
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to suck for him to be out for whatever and the other thing about it is

49:44.482 --> 49:47.646
[SPEAKER_00]: Can he wrestle the same coming back.

49:48.026 --> 49:53.012
[SPEAKER_01]: He shouldn't, but I mean, he can wrestle well and he can just be different like Danielson.

49:53.473 --> 49:57.718
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but still then Danielson keeps getting hurt even wrestling differently.

49:58.258 --> 49:59.960
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, well, because he forgets that he's injured.

50:01.060 --> 50:09.684
[SPEAKER_00]: It's Stone Cold Steve Austin comes back as a brawler and still gets hurt as a brawler because he's still taking German superlicks isn't back as head.

50:10.544 --> 50:16.407
[SPEAKER_00]: So these guys like they can't it's almost like you can't protect them from themselves because they're just so dialed in for it.

50:16.967 --> 50:17.167
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

50:17.527 --> 50:17.667
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

50:18.188 --> 50:18.488
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.

50:19.278 --> 50:20.058
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we were good.

50:20.078 --> 50:21.679
[SPEAKER_00]: We did a hard, fifty minutes here.

50:22.239 --> 50:22.519
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.

50:22.559 --> 50:30.801
[SPEAKER_00]: So we'll we'll we'll be back next week on take down, but you have the dynamite show and I'm guessing that Jeff is going to be happy that you watched for Bindor.

50:30.821 --> 50:30.941
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.

50:31.501 --> 50:31.721
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

50:31.941 --> 50:32.141
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

50:32.181 --> 50:32.601
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, yeah.

50:32.621 --> 50:40.483
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll talk a little bit about it and I'll give some more thoughts on the show and I'll watch the party match as soon as we're done and I'll save those thoughts for Wednesday.

50:40.823 --> 50:43.064
[SPEAKER_01]: Although you can go in the discord if you want to get my thoughts.

50:43.284 --> 50:43.904
[SPEAKER_01]: My right.

50:44.224 --> 50:44.364
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

50:44.404 --> 50:49.045
[SPEAKER_01]: I like this show more than my comments probably come off like I sounded like I did like it is good show.

50:49.925 --> 50:55.487
[SPEAKER_00]: So, and then for me, I'm actually not doing Friday with Dave this week, because Dave is out town.

50:55.547 --> 51:00.968
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm actually going to have like a free Friday, which nice, I'm almost like, man, what am I going to do?

51:01.708 --> 51:09.910
[SPEAKER_00]: My whole process is wake up, read the observer, do some work, read the observer, do some work.

51:10.110 --> 51:12.331
[SPEAKER_00]: Read the observer, touch grad.

51:12.391 --> 51:15.452
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I might have to go to the movies or something on Friday.

51:15.512 --> 51:16.752
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a holiday weekend too, right?

51:17.416 --> 51:19.717
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, no, no work for no work on Monday.

51:19.777 --> 51:22.237
[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, actually now I'm now, now I'm excited.

51:22.277 --> 51:22.698
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm excited.

51:22.778 --> 51:23.358
[SPEAKER_00]: I've read it off.

51:24.498 --> 51:29.179
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, Marie also said HPK had to change his wrestling style when he came back.

51:29.760 --> 51:35.001
[SPEAKER_00]: He was much smarter, but he was still pretty athletic in some ways that like his matches were better.

51:35.141 --> 51:40.903
[SPEAKER_01]: Like similar to Tana Hashie the last couple years, like when you watch him in New Japan, like his matches are really good.

51:41.743 --> 51:55.826
[SPEAKER_01]: The problem when he comes in the AWS and he's getting off a plane and jumping into a wrestling ring like that's not easy for guys that aren't you know that don't have either your old knees, but yeah, so yeah, yeah, you you just work a smarter style and more psychology and less athleticism.

51:56.526 --> 51:57.666
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's what we're just going to do.

51:58.506 --> 51:58.987
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.

51:59.287 --> 52:01.887
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you to everyone for checking in on us.

52:02.107 --> 52:05.508
