Episode Transcript
[00:00:07] Speaker A: In the beginning, the earth was a dark, formless void.
But then God spoke and said, let there be wrestling.
And with that, there was Monday, and wrestling happened on Mondays. And God looked upon her works and said, holy shit, that's a lot of racism in video packages.
On the second day, God got depressed, and lo did she post about it on the DVD VR forums. And with that, there was Tuesday.
On the third day, God said, let there be Wednesday. And lo did the people reply unto her.
We know what that means.
[00:00:56] Speaker B: And we are back with yet another episode of Wednesday Night Fake Fights. You will notice that this is not the usual voice introducing the podcast. It is I, Piper Willow. She it starting us off. Jeff is on assignment.
[00:01:12] Speaker A: And Yarnham, he went to the video game too.
[00:01:17] Speaker B: Despite having no idea what it is.
[00:01:20] Speaker A: That's why it's gonna be extra hard for him there.
[00:01:23] Speaker C: Yeah, that's just a cover. I actually have him on. On something else entirely. We don't worry about that.
[00:01:29] Speaker A: Oh, I know what he's on.
Weed.
[00:01:33] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:01:37] Speaker A: That's why we love him.
[00:01:39] Speaker C: Gosh, that sounds like a great idea.
Thursday night's all right for podcasting.
[00:01:45] Speaker B: It sure is.
[00:01:47] Speaker A: I am Erica Warrens, and I.
[00:01:49] Speaker B: She.
[00:01:49] Speaker A: They. And I am not sick this time. It's not my fault that there's one less person.
[00:01:55] Speaker B: She just passed it around. The podcast.
[00:01:58] Speaker A: Yes.
That's how the Internet works. Yep, just a big dump truck for.
[00:02:04] Speaker B: Seasonal colds, viruses, even.
[00:02:09] Speaker C: It's a me, Ella. I'm here. I'm back. I have a podcast in a while. Can you tell?
[00:02:16] Speaker B: Too busy in the chicken mines.
[00:02:18] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm too busy in the chicken minds, and I just come in here and stumble all over my.
I. I did. We're. Everyone in this room is speaking English, and that is not. That's slowly but surely becoming strange for me.
[00:02:34] Speaker A: Personally. I'm surprised that they mine Mark Briscoes around the clock and that you're responsible for doing that now.
[00:02:40] Speaker C: Okay, you know what? There's a lot of them. There's more than you think.
And he's delicious when deep fried for the right amount.
[00:02:50] Speaker B: You got to be careful. Delaware is not that big of a state. You're gonna run out soon enough.
[00:02:54] Speaker A: Oh, well, they were talking about. Mark is working overtime to replenish.
[00:03:02] Speaker C: Yeah, no, see, that. That. Exactly. We're doing a public service, thank you very much.
Cutting down on instances of violence. Random acts of violence through hillbilly kung fu, you know? Yeah, people are just getting chopped randomly in the streets.
Chicken violence.
[00:03:21] Speaker A: Chicken.
[00:03:22] Speaker B: Chicken violence.
[00:03:23] Speaker A: The chickens are restless.
[00:03:27] Speaker B: Sure enough, it's gonna be a restless episode this week. I think it is yet another three hour AEW broadcast. Just the continued to call it not dynamite, not collision. An AEW broadcast.
[00:03:39] Speaker C: Some mysterious third thing.
[00:03:44] Speaker A: I titled this document that. I took my notes on the 3 Hour Fest. DinoLision Cola Mite.
[00:03:54] Speaker B: And you know what? That's exactly what it is.
[00:03:56] Speaker C: Well, there's the title.
[00:03:58] Speaker A: I don't think we can make that title unless we censor fest.
[00:04:03] Speaker B: I don't know, boss.
[00:04:03] Speaker C: Can we die? Vision Colamite is something I mind deeply considering. Okay, Dinolution, Something I'm definitely considering.
[00:04:17] Speaker B: Starts out like every other AEW broadcast. Excalibur runs down the card. The pay per view that's coming up. The show a little bit of everything. We get a bit of a recap of what happened to Ibushi by the coward Josh Alexander.
[00:04:36] Speaker A: Why did they show it again?
[00:04:38] Speaker B: Yeah, they showed it a lot. And it was.
I didn't need to see it at all, let alone that much.
[00:04:47] Speaker A: At least they didn't show like the actual. Like. I don't think they actually got the femur break on camera.
[00:04:55] Speaker B: No, I don't. It didn't seem like it, but. But it seemed like they still shed a lot around it.
[00:05:01] Speaker A: We need to stop.
[00:05:03] Speaker B: Yeah.
So starts off, I guess we have a little interaction between Kenny and Jungle Boy. That was also collision.
[00:05:16] Speaker C: I'm sorry. Jungle man.
[00:05:18] Speaker B: That's right. Jungle.
[00:05:19] Speaker C: Jungle. Jungle.
[00:05:21] Speaker B: He's just Jungle now.
[00:05:22] Speaker A: No, no, no. I think I hit on the perfect nickname for him because he has a knife. So he's Jackknife Perry.
Yeah.
[00:05:31] Speaker B: Given his. We'll. We'll get to his new nickname. I got one for him later on in the show.
[00:05:36] Speaker C: Jungle Pervert. Yeah. No.
[00:05:38] Speaker B: Yeah.
But they, They've got history. They got beef. And Kenny's like, you wanna. You wanna show me you care?
Show up on Dynamite and like, we'll. We'll make it happen on the lips.
[00:05:51] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:05:51] Speaker B: And kiss him on the way.
Spoiler alert. They still have not let the boys kiss. And it's a goddamn shame.
[00:05:58] Speaker A: It really is.
There's some stuff where I felt like somebody. They were trying to force it and it didn't quite work.
[00:06:05] Speaker C: Chuck Taylor will have his revenge on the booking room.
[00:06:11] Speaker B: We then go backstage to Renee, who was talking to Chris Statlander. And Toast.
[00:06:19] Speaker C: This is. I gotta just say I haven't been on in a bit. But this run that Tony is on, like her. Her overall look. The down and out artist. Like the, the.
The. The movie star out of work. Who's, like, down on her and, like. Like, depressed is just. I don't know what it says about me. I should talk to my therapist. Just the hottest.
Just the hottest.
Like, the hottest she has ever been for me. It's just what this entire look she's got going on and. And like, oh, my God, they just keep doing hot things, and I just. I need them to destroy each other for mine. Entertainment. And I'm normal.
[00:07:09] Speaker A: I like that. The. The thing that popped me, like, immediately at this was Renee's like, all right, so we've agreed there's. There's not going to be any violence or no altercation. And meanwhile, like, they're. They're, like, pulling their clothes off for whatever reason and, like, Statlanders down to, like, her unitard.
Yeah. And then Renee just, like, rips her. Her own sweater off, and it's like, yo, we stop.
[00:07:35] Speaker C: Yeah.
Somewhere Mox is like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
[00:07:43] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:07:43] Speaker B: She rips her jacket off, and she is not having it.
She's like, I just want to know where your heads are at, please. That's all we're here for. Tony says that she thought she would feel release when she lost, but instead again has felt nothing and says that she is that title. Toni Storm says, I don't know who I am without that title, but, darling, who are you?
Stat says, she's a culmination of everything that she's been, and she's constantly evolving and changing. And the. That the Statlander that Tony Storm already faced is going to be a completely different Statlander than she's going to face on Saturday.
[00:08:21] Speaker C: Pretty jazz. Not going to lie.
[00:08:23] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:08:24] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:08:25] Speaker A: They've done a really good job building this up.
[00:08:27] Speaker C: They really have.
[00:08:28] Speaker B: There's an awesome line that. That Tony says, professional wrestling is a lie that reveals the truth. And we've told some ridiculous lies.
[00:08:40] Speaker C: Oh, my God. On my tombstone, like that.
That. That's pro wrestling, baby. That's that good Carney. We've told some ridiculous lies.
[00:08:50] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:08:51] Speaker C: She's so good.
[00:08:53] Speaker B: Stat says, you know the truth. You just have to accept it. They stand up and stare each other down. They go, okay, is this interview over? Renee's like, I guess.
[00:09:05] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:09:06] Speaker B: And they immediately, like, take the laugh mics off, throw them down, and start hauling ass to the ring.
[00:09:12] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:09:12] Speaker C: Yeah. Like, yeah, let's go.
[00:09:14] Speaker B: You cut to Excalibur. He's like, I. I don't know what that was. And he, like, starts trying to talk about stuff. And cut back over to the ramp, and they're just marching Down. And then they just get in the ring and beat the out of each other.
[00:09:28] Speaker C: So here's the. It's like they've. They're like, we can't do. As much as Bischoff might like it. Hot lesbian action, but we can have them yearning to beat the out of each other and have that.
[00:09:43] Speaker B: Replace that, you know, Strong sapphic undertones.
[00:09:48] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:09:49] Speaker C: Yes.
[00:09:50] Speaker A: Undertones, undertone.
[00:09:53] Speaker C: Was it the collision where they just laid down in the ring, cheek to cheek and, like, talked it out like two girls in the field?
God damn it. That is like, I stood up and, like, cry. Applauded. That was the greatest thing I've ever seen in professional wrestling. It's just like, girl bestie. Let's just talk it out. Like, laid down, cheek to cheek.
[00:10:15] Speaker A: The very obvious thing is, like, Bischoff was doing the 2000s. Like, check out hot women making out.
Whereas this is.
It's just like, you know, the lesbians for the male gays type of shit.
And this is.
This is like, lesbians for real, people.
[00:10:35] Speaker C: This is the lesbians. Lesbians. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:10:39] Speaker A: No, it's like. No, I get it. I get it.
[00:10:41] Speaker B: This is lesbianism for women.
[00:10:43] Speaker C: Yeah. For real. I'm like, oh, my God, you're hitting it so fudge. And you're just hitting it is so hard.
[00:10:50] Speaker A: This is great. Like. Like, Tony's done the gay thing before, but, like, this is. This is advanced homosexuality.
[00:10:59] Speaker C: Yeah. This is really saying it wasn't a bit. I. I am this person. I live in this world.
Like, I'm gonna. I'm gonna drive out in a goddamn Subaru, and you're gonna be like, is it because she's Australian? No.
[00:11:18] Speaker B: That Subaru Outback is out here.
[00:11:23] Speaker C: Good day, indeed.
[00:11:25] Speaker A: They.
[00:11:26] Speaker B: Tony kneels down, offers stat the belt to take a free shot. Stat. Does not accept Stat. Kneels down, offers the same thing. Tony almost goes for it. Places a belt on her shoulder. Forehead kiss, walks out.
Cinema.
[00:11:43] Speaker A: Cinema.
[00:11:44] Speaker C: I died.
[00:11:46] Speaker A: This is.
[00:11:48] Speaker C: And she left a lipstick mark on her forehead.
[00:11:51] Speaker B: She did so good.
[00:11:54] Speaker A: Awesome. This is how you build a face versus face title match.
[00:11:58] Speaker C: I'm saying this is.
[00:12:00] Speaker A: This is how you do it.
[00:12:02] Speaker C: Oh, they're really. They're really on something still. Like, they're. I'm so happy. Even without the title, like, there's just no stopping Toni Storm.
[00:12:11] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:12:11] Speaker C: She's just so over and so Statlander and, like, there's just no.
People were like, yeah, but it's gonna stop eventually. Eventually it's gonna start to calm down and bubble. I'm not Gonna see that anytime when it hasn't.
[00:12:25] Speaker A: Yeah, it hasn't yet.
[00:12:26] Speaker B: Not yet.
[00:12:27] Speaker C: She took the belt off of her, and she's still killing it.
You put on Statlander, and Statlander's doing better than she's ever done. Like, God, I love pro wrestling. Anyways.
[00:12:41] Speaker B: We get to our first pro wrestling match as Jurassic Express.
Oh, no, wait. I'm in the wrong part of my notes. We get. This is where the Jurassic Express promo is with the former jungle boy. Now Whitland Jack Perry.
[00:12:59] Speaker A: Whitland Jack Perry. He wasn't doing a good job of it. He just, like, stabbing a block of wood. Yeah, like, that's not how you. That's not how you whittle.
[00:13:09] Speaker B: Wh.
[00:13:10] Speaker A: Call that Whitland Jack Whittling Jack Barry.
[00:13:15] Speaker B: He talks about how he. He doesn't hate the young bucks. He, in fact, loves the young bucks. But when he needed him most, they let him down. So he had to find somebody who he knew wouldn't let him down. And.
Wow. Can you imagine that? It's luchasaurus.
[00:13:32] Speaker A: Wow.
[00:13:33] Speaker C: Big old dinosaur.
[00:13:34] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:13:35] Speaker B: Back from the dead.
Question mark.
[00:13:39] Speaker A: I.
It's very unclear what happened. I think. And I don't think I need an answer, but it's very unclear. If this was like, Chikara or Hood Slam, they would be like, well, there's magic involved. And from this specific dark wizard, Jack Perry.
[00:13:55] Speaker B: Dark wizard Jack Perry?
[00:13:57] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, Jack Perry killed one dark wizard to get his powers and became a dark wizard to bring back Luchasaurus and.
Yeah.
[00:14:07] Speaker C: But wait, is the dark wizard. He killed CM Punk?
[00:14:12] Speaker A: That'd be funny. But that implies that Sam Punk's a dark wizard, and I don't think he is.
[00:14:17] Speaker B: No, there's nothing magical about that, man.
[00:14:21] Speaker C: He's just angry.
[00:14:23] Speaker A: I love tattoos.
[00:14:25] Speaker C: I got tattoos. I'm so mad.
[00:14:27] Speaker A: I like Chicago.
[00:14:30] Speaker C: They made me go apologize to Saudi Arabia.
[00:14:35] Speaker A: How.
I'm sorry. How bad can you possibly be?
[00:14:40] Speaker B: Mopping up his tears with a pile of money?
[00:14:43] Speaker A: Oh.
[00:14:43] Speaker C: All I know is that that is my canon voice for CM Punk. On this show and all shows going forward, I'm the greatest wrestler in the world.
[00:14:53] Speaker A: There's nothing more punk rock than apologizing to a monarchy.
[00:15:00] Speaker B: I watched my two Pointif.
No, no, no. West Wing.
[00:15:08] Speaker C: West Wing.
[00:15:09] Speaker B: It's his favorite TV show.
[00:15:11] Speaker C: I'm Chicago Made Punk. Yeah.
Oh, God.
All right. Anyways, I'm good. I could get lost in the CM Punk field.
[00:15:22] Speaker A: Somebody's gonna hear that and get pissed.
[00:15:24] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna get a lawsuit.
I do not sound like that.
[00:15:31] Speaker A: I Don't sound like that at all.
[00:15:34] Speaker C: I don't sound like that, and I do not twink.
[00:15:37] Speaker B: We gotta be careful.
We gotta be careful being podcasters going after CM Punk.
[00:15:42] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, no, there's precedent.
[00:15:44] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:15:46] Speaker A: Anyways. Anyway, don't smoke if you're listening to this. Phil. Hi.
[00:15:52] Speaker B: It's done in chest.
[00:15:55] Speaker C: Yeah. Hey, Phil. I wish you would have made better choices.
[00:15:58] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:16:00] Speaker C: But I'm guessing you probably do, too. We could. That's a different podcast.
[00:16:05] Speaker B: You let me down.
[00:16:07] Speaker C: Hey, Phil. Take a seat. Yeah, take a knee, Phil.
[00:16:12] Speaker A: Why are you listening to this? Phil.
[00:16:14] Speaker C: Yeah. First of all, how far have you fallen?
[00:16:17] Speaker B: Second off.
[00:16:18] Speaker A: Thank you.
[00:16:19] Speaker B: Third.
[00:16:19] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:16:21] Speaker A: Can you post the. Can you repost the tweet?
[00:16:26] Speaker C: Can you unapologize?
[00:16:33] Speaker A: Say. Just say you had your fingers crossed.
[00:16:35] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah.
Like X's that you'd write on your wrists.
Anyways. Anyway, back to modern wrestling and not CM Punk, Chicago, me.
[00:16:52] Speaker A: God damn it.
[00:16:53] Speaker B: We get our first match, which we've seen what feels like a dozen times before, but never seems to get old.
It's the Gates of Agony versus Hurt Syndicate for the umpteenth time.
[00:17:07] Speaker A: Oh, no. Yeah, that's right. They are. I remember at least one other match they did.
[00:17:12] Speaker C: These guys have had pay per view already. Like, yeah.
[00:17:15] Speaker B: Like, they've had multiple wood feel like blow offs. And then they just opened the show tonight. I was like, we had a street fight between these guys last week, and they're just going at it again.
[00:17:26] Speaker A: Well, that wasn't. That wasn't the Goa. That was the Domain.
That was a trio's match. That was a trio.
[00:17:34] Speaker C: Okay.
[00:17:34] Speaker A: Get it right. Get it right. This is the most accurate queer podcast for wrestling of all time, and we have to get it right.
[00:17:41] Speaker C: Well, in that case, I'm. I've got to leave the room. I'm sorry.
I'm a liability in that.
[00:17:50] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:17:50] Speaker C: Okay. I can. I'm back.
[00:17:52] Speaker B: It is the Gates of Agony and not the Demand versus the Heart Indicate sans mvp.
Yeah, there we go.
[00:18:02] Speaker C: They hurt slightly less people.
[00:18:05] Speaker A: It's a regular lineup. It's the two guys. The two guys. Not. Not mvp, which I'm always happy to.
[00:18:13] Speaker B: See, because honestly, seeing these four guys go at it is awesome.
[00:18:18] Speaker A: Oh, this kicked ass.
[00:18:20] Speaker B: Yeah. This great match. Just four power athletes going at it. It's a great spot, pretty early on where one of the GOA guys tags in and just immediately gets close. Signed out of the ring by Bobby Lashley.
[00:18:40] Speaker A: I like that. It was. It was like.
Of like a good ring awareness kind of thing is like, Bobby Actually saw the blind tag. Like, they up the blind tag. He's like, no, no, you don't, man. I'm gonna hurt you. Because that's our business.
[00:18:55] Speaker B: That's what I do.
They hurt people.
[00:18:59] Speaker A: They hurt people.
I think it's. They should put that in their song so people know.
[00:19:04] Speaker B: Good idea.
[00:19:05] Speaker C: It's catchy.
[00:19:06] Speaker B: Fans. The fans would love to sing that.
[00:19:09] Speaker C: Fans like singing.
[00:19:11] Speaker A: You know who loves this match is Bryan Danielson. Loves this matchup more than anything. I'm pretty sure they just keep on booking it for him.
[00:19:21] Speaker B: He's just out there clapping his hands like, yay, Yay.
[00:19:25] Speaker A: Get him, Bishop. Get him, Shelton.
[00:19:28] Speaker C: He comes in the back and he's like, Tony, you gotta run it back one more time. Like, Brian, we can't. We can't keep doing this. The ratings are starting to low.
[00:19:37] Speaker B: Can we do it at the pay per view? Can we do it at the pay per view? And Tony's like, fine, okay, one more.
[00:19:44] Speaker C: Pay per view, Mr. Goat.
[00:19:46] Speaker B: Which they are. They are having a trios match eventually announced later in the show. Tornado tag Trios match. It's the Demand versus the Hurt Syndicate. One last time. Yeah, question mark.
[00:20:00] Speaker A: They're basically just running back the match they had on Dynamite last week, which. Okay, sure, yeah, sure.
[00:20:07] Speaker B: I'll see that again.
[00:20:08] Speaker C: Yeah, I'll watch that one more time at least.
[00:20:10] Speaker B: It's also the spot. MVP is going after one of the guys and then like Bryce Ramsberg misses. It comes down is like asking the fans, like, did this guy do something? And everybody's like, no, no, no, no, no, he didn't do anything.
[00:20:23] Speaker C: Don't worry about it.
[00:20:25] Speaker B: I thought that was funny.
[00:20:29] Speaker C: Now it's like getting the. The people involved in Kay. But also like crimes.
[00:20:35] Speaker A: Right?
[00:20:36] Speaker C: No, like when a whole crowd could be implicated as aiding and abetting.
[00:20:40] Speaker B: That's how you know it's a good wrestling show.
[00:20:42] Speaker C: Yup.
[00:20:43] Speaker A: Bryce is really good at that type of thing. I remember. Yeah, he used to do that on the Indies all the time. He'd be like. People be like, bryce, turn around. He's like, what? What do I need to turn around? He'd talk to the crowd while like, you know, crimes are happening behind him.
[00:20:59] Speaker B: Hey, but if the ref didn't see it.
[00:21:01] Speaker A: Yeah, he's. He's probably the best at the crowd interaction, stuff like that.
[00:21:05] Speaker B: Gunshot goes off, wrestlers on the floor. I didn't see it.
[00:21:11] Speaker A: What did we dub this in? This is a detective referee. We did dub this on Monday night. Fake fights. Oh, yeah, Detective referee on the case. Well, There's a chair in the ring, but I can't prove anything happened.
[00:21:27] Speaker C: Without body, no crime.
[00:21:29] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:21:29] Speaker B: It's not an open and shut case, but with Ricochet at the side, you know there's gonna be some kind of shenanigans. Ref was distracted yet again. He runs in, hits the spirit gun on Shelton, and for the first time ever, the Hurt Syndicate are pinned.
[00:21:49] Speaker A: Yeah, this combination of them.
[00:21:51] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:21:52] Speaker A: Because I think MVP took the pin on the pay per view.
[00:21:56] Speaker B: I believe so.
[00:21:57] Speaker A: And he doesn't count, I guess, but, like. Yes.
[00:22:01] Speaker C: Well, when they lost the belts, maybe.
[00:22:03] Speaker A: No, they didn't get pinned when they lost the belts.
[00:22:05] Speaker C: No, it was writers or trio.
[00:22:08] Speaker B: Yeah, this felt weird.
I don't quite know why, because, like, from a person who watches a lot of wrestling, you hear, like, Shelton, like, on the mat, you see him just yelling at somebody like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, hey, this is gonna be the finish. Like, I don't know, it just. It felt a little clunky and like.
[00:22:32] Speaker C: It felt like maybe something was on the fly.
[00:22:34] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:22:35] Speaker B: Like maybe. Like maybe. Maybe the win should have been at the pay per view in three days, but instead you just do it on that dynamite. I don't know.
[00:22:45] Speaker A: I think it sets up, like they're actually being some intrigue for the pay per view match, because that's fair.
But, like, it did seem kind of weird because Shelton wasn't really selling what happened to him.
Or maybe he wasn't. Or, like, he was. He was more distracted, like, trying to figure out what he just got hit with.
[00:23:06] Speaker B: Yeah, because.
[00:23:07] Speaker A: Because, well, like, the. The. The finish itself was.
Bryce was distracted and Ricochet, like, comes in the ring and just does, like, this big drive by Spirit gun to Shelton, and Bishop Khan pinned him.
So, like, it's. If the. The implication is, like, Shelton did not see what's happened, what happened to him. He's like, probably like, I'm on the ground. What happened? What the hell?
I lost.
[00:23:35] Speaker B: Yeah, it works. It just. If it seemed off as. As a viewer, but I'm not a wrestler, so I don't know.
[00:23:44] Speaker A: I don't. I don't know what they're going for. I do want to note one other thing is they. This comes up again a little bit later on, but, like, they keep doing the.
They did a. They did a spot where they DDT'd Toa Leona and he just popped right back up.
And essentially they're doing the whole thing where, like, you can't do head damage to Pacific Islander wrestlers like Samoans, Tongans, all that other stuff. Yeah, but they didn't say it.
It's just like, he's really strong.
Yeah. It's not like.
[00:24:23] Speaker B: It's not the guy in the corner giving the dude a headbutt and going, ow, my head.
[00:24:28] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:24:28] Speaker B: It's like commentary going, do you know why his head hurts? Here's why you did.
[00:24:34] Speaker A: You don't head butt a Samoan. No. He's like, I'm a badass.
[00:24:38] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:24:39] Speaker A: I'm just popping right back up you.
[00:24:42] Speaker B: Yeah, that's not even. I didn't think about that. Yeah, that's a great point to that. They didn't point out.
[00:24:48] Speaker C: Yeah, they didn't make a point. And, like, it's one of those things where you just. It's understood.
You don't have to point it out and. And reify that racism. You can just let it hang in the air. You don't have to point it out.
[00:25:05] Speaker A: It was like, it's. It's. It's always been like a kind of badass spot, but, like, now it's just like. It's just a badass spot and not exactly racial. Now it's not just like racial essentialism.
[00:25:18] Speaker C: Yeah. You can just say, man, that guy's got.
Got hell of constitution. Like, you know what I mean?
[00:25:24] Speaker B: Like, that guy got thick neck.
[00:25:27] Speaker C: Yeah, he's got thick neck. He could take a hit like.
[00:25:29] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:25:30] Speaker C: Cut of his jib, you know, it's got nothing to do with the fact. Yeah.
Fantastic.
[00:25:36] Speaker A: Moxley. Good. Good job on that.
[00:25:39] Speaker B: Speaking of fantastic and Moxley.
[00:25:41] Speaker C: Thank you.
[00:25:42] Speaker B: We get a quick shot of Darby Allen assaulting Jon Moxley at New York Comic Con, which was kind of funny.
[00:25:51] Speaker A: It was kind of funny. But I think it does prove that wrestling is real, because they would not.
Yeah, yeah. You don't just attack guys at New York City Comic Con unless it's for real. Right.
[00:26:05] Speaker B: That's true. Yeah.
[00:26:06] Speaker A: You.
[00:26:07] Speaker B: Yeah, it. It exists outside of the four.
The four sides of the wrestling ring.
[00:26:14] Speaker A: It's real.
[00:26:15] Speaker B: It's real.
This promo was awesome.
[00:26:18] Speaker A: This was crazy.
[00:26:21] Speaker B: The Jon Moxley, Darby Allen face to face, where they're basically at a.
How do you. How do you call it?
A inmate talking to somebody on the outside, bank teller, ticket window.
[00:26:35] Speaker A: Yeah. I don't know what that's. What. Wait, did I put it down? What? It's called.
[00:26:41] Speaker C: Artist.
[00:26:41] Speaker A: I just put.
Prison. Visiting room.
[00:26:44] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:26:45] Speaker C: Visiting room. Yeah.
[00:26:46] Speaker B: And basically it came down to Mox was like, look, neither of us are going to quit.
We both know it, so what are we gonna do?
And Darby's like, look, I know what you're trying to do. I'm not gonna join the Death Riders. I don't respect you. And Darby's been doing all of this because of Brian and him getting stabbed in the back, which is. That's all odd motivation for everything that he's done in the last couple months.
[00:27:18] Speaker A: It.
I don't think he quite explained it right.
[00:27:21] Speaker C: Like, I don't think Darby's good at this, is what I'm gonna say.
[00:27:26] Speaker A: Well, no, it's. It's not. It's not necessarily that he's doing it because of Danielson. He said that he won't join the. He thinks that he. He was. He considered joining the Death Riders.
[00:27:38] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:27:39] Speaker A: But he won't do it because of what they did to Danielson.
So. Yeah, it's. It's not that. Like, he's fighting for Danielson. He's fighting.
He won't join. Like, he agrees with Moxley is the thing like that. He's like, that's like.
[00:27:54] Speaker C: Trust you, though, because you're obviously a piece of.
[00:27:56] Speaker A: Yes. Like, that's the crux of this whole thing is like, okay, they agree with each other. They have the same philosophy. But Mox casts aside people that he doesn't need to make points, and Darby doesn't want to do that. He doesn't trust him.
[00:28:13] Speaker B: That.
That clears things up a little bit. Darby does say that he is gonna choke out John Moxley with the Everest flag, which I thought was gonna be an interesting visual, which we saw later in the show, but come Saturday as well.
Should that be his method of victory?
[00:28:35] Speaker A: He's gonna hang him from the.
[00:28:38] Speaker B: Yeah, like we see every other time.
[00:28:41] Speaker A: I don't know what else you're going to do with it. Like, because they have to kill. Somebody has to die.
[00:28:47] Speaker C: That's.
[00:28:47] Speaker B: Yeah, somebody.
[00:28:48] Speaker A: That's the only implication is death is on the line.
[00:28:51] Speaker B: And Darby.
Darby gets kind of close here at the end of this where Mox says that he's, you know, it's not about Mox. Darby is.
[00:29:01] Speaker A: Is.
[00:29:02] Speaker B: Is fighting ghosts, fighting past demons, whatever you want to call it. Mox is like, up and down that road. It doesn't work out well for you. And then Pac jumps Darby on the other side.
[00:29:13] Speaker C: Strange clothed man.
[00:29:16] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm just going to call him dry park now.
[00:29:19] Speaker C: Dry. Oh, my God, you nailed it.
[00:29:23] Speaker A: He was dry.
It was like. Like, that was like the most terrifying thing I've ever seen is like, holy crap, who's that fully clothed, not sweaty man behind me?
[00:29:35] Speaker C: It looked hot in There. You know what I mean? Like, hey, they looked. He looked muggy.
[00:29:40] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:29:40] Speaker B: What with all the blood and everything. Sorry.
But, yeah, he just slammed him against the glass. Mox is just standing there watching. Walks out, closes the door. That was.
That was cool.
Some good cinematography tips.
[00:29:59] Speaker C: Pac for the Kink show.
[00:30:01] Speaker A: I don't know. Yeah. I don't know how much blood was on, how much of that blood was stage blood and how much of that was Darby's blood. But there was a lot of blood on that glass.
[00:30:09] Speaker B: There was. Yeah.
[00:30:10] Speaker A: Like, I didn't think you'd be able to see it because it was so dark when they were filming it. But, like, when you would, like, mock sleeves and, like, all you see is just like. There's just blood dripping down that thing. It's like, God damn, it's a horror movie.
[00:30:23] Speaker B: Yeah. And I wouldn't put it past Ira to be like, hey, just pop me one real quick. And.
[00:30:28] Speaker A: Yeah, got this. I've got this big scab on my ear. Just pick at it. We'll be good.
[00:30:33] Speaker B: Yeah, let me. Let me pop a gusher all over this window real quick.
[00:30:38] Speaker C: Oh, God. My brain went some bad places.
Anyways, I've been cultivating this since the top of the mountain. Like, it's easy. If you just hit me here once real good, it's is real up.
[00:30:55] Speaker B: It's gonna look like the Shining.
[00:30:57] Speaker A: I just have, like, this. This little aneurysm right here. I've been holding on to it. If you pop it, just. You can't do that.
[00:31:04] Speaker B: You can't do that on the Ghost Home show. You gotta save that for the pay per view.
[00:31:09] Speaker C: It's gonna be such good tv. Bro. Bro.
[00:31:12] Speaker A: Darby's like, listen, I've been growing a cyst just, like.
[00:31:17] Speaker B: For this exact moment.
[00:31:19] Speaker A: For this exact moment. So, like, you just get that fork and you just get deep enough.
[00:31:23] Speaker C: Oh, God.
Well, we just lost every new listener we got.
[00:31:29] Speaker A: No Darby Allen puffs shot.
[00:31:32] Speaker B: No.
[00:31:32] Speaker C: Well, I'm done. I'm done. Happy Halloween, folks. I'm out.
[00:31:36] Speaker B: All right, this has been Wednesday night. Fake fights for the forever. Hopefully for the last time.
[00:31:42] Speaker C: Yeah, for the last time. Maybe Monday will come back soon. We gotta rethink our lives.
[00:31:46] Speaker A: You laugh, but there'll be plus on Saturday. Just wait. Oh, probably they'll be pus.
[00:31:54] Speaker C: He does get, like, frothy at the mouth sometime. I don't know about that.
Hey, now.
Hey.
This got real weird real fast.
[00:32:08] Speaker B: I have nothing to say, you know.
[00:32:11] Speaker C: No, no, the up part is I'm still eating my Cookie.
[00:32:18] Speaker B: Cookie.
[00:32:19] Speaker C: Oh, God damn it.
[00:32:21] Speaker A: Why did that make me drag down?
[00:32:23] Speaker C: Yeah. Can we please move on? I'm dying.
That's the guy who was the ookie.
[00:32:28] Speaker A: Cookie.
[00:32:31] Speaker B: Next match is Claudio Castagonli versus Roderick Strong.
[00:32:36] Speaker C: This was so fun.
[00:32:39] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:32:39] Speaker A: Indie classic right here. Holy.
[00:32:45] Speaker B: Just a. Yeah, just indie classic is a great way to describe it. Like, those guys are both awesome and a great match together. Conglomeration and Death Riders don't necessarily butt heads all that much. It's normally like Don Callis family is the foil to the conglomeration lately, but it's. It's cool to see these guys kind of go at it for their respective factions.
[00:33:10] Speaker C: I think at some point, OC has got to come from Mox's head. I feel like he. He earned it.
[00:33:17] Speaker B: Yeah. The true.
The true savior of aew, I'm saying.
[00:33:23] Speaker A: Yeah, right? Yeah.
[00:33:25] Speaker C: And that is. Speaking of all that Mox and Darby business, I'm pretty sure Darby is gonna get his win back this weekend. Yeah, it's gonna be this wonderful. Woo. Conquering here. All I will say is, God, at least it's not for a title.
Because I knew it was gonna happen.
They kept going that he's coming back. It's gonna happen. I'm just like, let him lose the title first. I don't want gold on that little.
Just lose the title.
[00:33:53] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't. I don't really buy him as a champion, even just setting aside, like, you know, the problem. The stuff.
[00:34:03] Speaker C: The stuff I saw what Samoa Joe did to that man.
You know what I mean? Like, if he got a championship, it would last long enough for Joe to get his hands on him. Yeah.
[00:34:15] Speaker A: Anyways, Claudio and Roderick.
[00:34:18] Speaker B: Yes. Claudia and Roderick. I did not have much notes for this match because other than watching it.
[00:34:24] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, they were.
Yeah, they. They just had a match. It was a good match. It didn't have like a ton of really cool spots, but, like, it was a good match. I liked it. It was very solid.
[00:34:38] Speaker C: I'm beginning to think that I just love Claudio.
[00:34:41] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:34:42] Speaker C: Because every match I'm just like, God is so good. I think. I think I just love him. I think he's just one of my favorite wrestlers.
[00:34:50] Speaker B: He's. I've enjoyed him ever since I saw him. Like, I didn't see any, like, indie stuff because I didn't really know what that was. And then it shows up in WWE and I was like, wow, this guy's impressive. And I've just been a fan ever since.
[00:35:04] Speaker C: So basically, yeah, when he showed up in My re. Watch. I was like, I don't know who the this guy is, but holy, he's awesome.
[00:35:11] Speaker A: I've loved him since like the first, like I saw him on the Indies. Like just at a show.
Like there was the one. The one chicara show I went to randomly had like Eddie Kingston, Claudio Castagnoli in it. And it's like, wow, I'm still watching those guys today.
[00:35:28] Speaker B: Wow. You were watching AEW in 2005. Like, yes.
[00:35:31] Speaker A: We want to talk about some of the other people who are on that show at the start of the show.
[00:35:38] Speaker C: Anyway, speaking of, everyone see people on that. That quote from Quacking Bush trying to where he was. He. Oh my God. Someone reposted a interview quote before aw happened with quite Mike Quackabush talking on the Orange Cassidy character and saying that like people only love Fire Ant because like people know what an ant is and stuff like that. And like you go anywhere and they know and.
And like how fire and was gracing. He didn't screen. He made. He made. He made that. He made that. That wrestler into a superstar because like, you know, he got. He's still selling those Orange Cassidy shirts he printed in 2008. It's kind of sad, but now he's.
[00:36:24] Speaker B: One of the biggest guys in the company.
[00:36:25] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:36:28] Speaker B: There's a reason it's Orange and not Quacking Bush.
[00:36:31] Speaker A: Like, there's a very good.
[00:36:33] Speaker B: There's a lot of reasons.
[00:36:34] Speaker C: There's a lot of reasons allowed. Quack is whack is what we say.
[00:36:39] Speaker A: Quack is right. And it's. It's a shame because that guy's a very good wrestler and he was. I thought he was very creative with what he did with Chicago at the time.
You can't be pervin on your lady wrestlers that you're training.
So.
[00:36:57] Speaker C: Not good.
[00:36:58] Speaker A: But there's also like, the thing is that like, the colony was pretty awesome.
Yes, the colony ruled. But like to say that, like, especially when he said that the time that he did say that like Orange Cassidy was a very, very, very over indie wrestler.
[00:37:17] Speaker C: Like, yeah, he was like an indie darling. Has been for like a while.
He was in Japan too.
[00:37:24] Speaker A: Everybody knew it was Fire Ant. Like, there wasn't anybody who was like shocked by that. Like, everybody knew who he was.
Everybody liked the gimmick.
[00:37:31] Speaker C: Yeah. We could talk more. Orange Cast.
[00:37:33] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:37:33] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:37:34] Speaker A: Well, this is not a. Yeah, we'll talk more in Cassie. Anyway, this had one of my favorite commentary lines of the night where Claudio kicked Roderick in the face. And Excalibur commented Roderick Strong. I don't think he was ready for the length of Castagnoli there.
[00:37:52] Speaker C: Yeah.
And he took it. He took the whole way.
[00:37:56] Speaker A: He took the length of him, but he wasn't ready for it.
I think if nothing else, Excalibur is trying to follow Chuck Taylor's advice.
[00:38:09] Speaker B: He's doing his part.
[00:38:12] Speaker C: Oh, my God. Excalibur's trying to make up for the fact that Taz isn't here talking about guys topping each other. And, like, he knows that we need our fodder and that we're simple, simple creatures.
[00:38:23] Speaker B: By. By hour three, everybody was making up for Taz not being there.
[00:38:28] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah.
[00:38:29] Speaker A: When we get to the hour three, we'll talk about that because, like, the commentary was like, we're done being here.
[00:38:35] Speaker C: Yeah, well, we're. Yeah, we'll get there. I mean, we're.
We're still an hour one of recording.
[00:38:43] Speaker A: Because that was another commentary line I wrote is we're in the first of three hours and I just write sobbing. I'm sobbing.
[00:38:52] Speaker B: Yeah.
It always makes me regret doing my watch of the show right before we record because it just, like, it's. It's quite the evening to.
[00:39:04] Speaker A: It's quite the evening.
[00:39:06] Speaker B: Go through all that and then talk about it for another two hours.
[00:39:10] Speaker C: And I feel like I gave you bad habits as a pod parent. I'm sorry. Because that is absolutely how I operated.
[00:39:18] Speaker A: For the entire work.
[00:39:20] Speaker C: Yeah, I know.
[00:39:22] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:39:24] Speaker A: I'm literally working when Dynamite happens.
[00:39:27] Speaker C: I know.
[00:39:28] Speaker A: Back at seven in the goddamn morning.
[00:39:32] Speaker C: No, I worked tired.
[00:39:34] Speaker A: I'm tired.
[00:39:36] Speaker C: I worked a 10 and a half hour shift yesterday, did not get back until hour three. And then I had to wait because I couldn't find the first two hours because HBO Max hates me.
Like, it was all just, oh, my God. But point being, they need this better be temporary because they've been doing it more and more and I need them to stop flirting with it. They need to stop. Yeah, Two hours is good and. Right.
[00:40:02] Speaker B: Yes. That we've. We've been on that before, but, yeah, we do what we can. For you, dear listeners. It's all for you.
[00:40:09] Speaker A: And for the dear listeners, I would like to say one last thing about this match that we didn't really talk about is that even though there wasn't like any, like, big exciting spots in it, I appreciated the fact that they looked like they were fighting and struggling and even the rest holds look like, you know, not rest holds. Yeah, it was, like, good. It was good professional Wrestling.
[00:40:32] Speaker C: Yeah. They're both really good at what they do.
[00:40:34] Speaker A: Yeah. Professional wrestling for the gay boys. Taking each other's length.
[00:40:41] Speaker C: Jesus.
[00:40:42] Speaker A: Oh, my God.
[00:40:44] Speaker B: I was gonna say it was good professional wrestling all throughout the evening, but no, you. Please, go ahead.
[00:40:50] Speaker C: No, no. Somehow I feel offended. I don't even know how that's possible.
[00:40:55] Speaker A: They're taking each other's length. That's. What's that?
[00:40:57] Speaker C: You know, you keep saying that.
I'm already distracted.
[00:41:02] Speaker A: The length. The length is being taken anyway. We need.
[00:41:06] Speaker C: We need task. We. We need t back. Yeah.
[00:41:10] Speaker A: Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. This was also Claudia's 1/100th win, apparently.
[00:41:14] Speaker B: Oh, that's right.
[00:41:15] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:41:15] Speaker B: Congrats to Claudio.
[00:41:17] Speaker A: Good job, Buddy. You won 100 fake fights.
[00:41:20] Speaker B: And he did it without the Death.
[00:41:21] Speaker A: Riders on Wednesday night. Fake fights.
[00:41:29] Speaker B: He says the name, you wins the prize.
The prize is more podcast.
[00:41:35] Speaker A: That's.
Yeah.
[00:41:37] Speaker B: We cut over to Don Callis's birthday party, which was simply the Don Callis family around the dinner table.
[00:41:48] Speaker A: Well, that's what you do. Yeah, they. I don't know why they had, like, that really stereotypical Asian music when he went in.
[00:41:56] Speaker B: Yeah. I don't.
[00:41:57] Speaker A: There wasn't anything particularly Asian about the restaurant.
No. Like what? We're just doing a racism. Okay.
[00:42:06] Speaker B: I mean, they didn't do all the racism.
[00:42:08] Speaker C: You took away this.
You took away the Samoan bit. They had to give it to him somewhere else.
[00:42:13] Speaker A: Yeah.
Oh, let's just. Can we have still wrestling?
[00:42:17] Speaker C: Yeah, it's still wrestling.
[00:42:18] Speaker A: It is still wrestling. There's got to be a little bit of racism. I. I one day will not require the racism for it to be wrestling, but today was not that day.
[00:42:29] Speaker B: No.
[00:42:29] Speaker A: This was kind of funny.
[00:42:31] Speaker B: Yeah, it was. They all congratulate. Congratulate me not to be the best word, but they congratulate Don on his birthday and have, you know, their gifts there for him. And Fletcher's like, well, we'll start with my gift, which is a sheet over a TV hanging on the wall that you can clearly tell has Takeshita behind.
[00:42:57] Speaker C: Hidden Soup.
[00:43:00] Speaker A: Hidden Soup.
[00:43:01] Speaker C: Oh, my God.
[00:43:03] Speaker B: Fletcher pulls that off.
We get a little recorded Windows Movie Maker, Windows Media Player video of Takeshita being like, hey, sorry, I can't make it. I'm in Japan. But I'm gonna win the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship for the family and bring it back home. And everybody's like, like, yeah. And then, yeah, family. Except for Okada, who hits the wrong button, he says, and turns off the message before it is finished.
[00:43:33] Speaker C: And he's just Like, I love a call.
[00:43:37] Speaker A: It's like I'm pushing the wrong. Oh, no. I made a mistake.
[00:43:40] Speaker C: Yeah. Oh, no.
[00:43:42] Speaker A: Like, obviously push the off button.
[00:43:44] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:43:48] Speaker C: Good stuff.
[00:43:49] Speaker A: I love Okada.
[00:43:52] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:43:52] Speaker C: He's so wonderful.
[00:43:54] Speaker B: I was also surprised we talked about it last week. I think I was surprised to catch the one.
[00:44:02] Speaker C: Yeah, me too.
[00:44:03] Speaker A: I. I wasn't sure how it would go, but, yeah, he won.
Go watch that match, by the way. It was very good.
[00:44:11] Speaker B: I will have to try and seek that out because I can imagine with the two of them, it was probably a barn burner.
[00:44:18] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, you can easily imagine that Zack Saber Jr versus Takeshita would be good. But, like, it was like, I was. I was honestly surprised by how good it was. Like, they told a very interesting story.
[00:44:31] Speaker B: When does he come home for the two of you to celebrate as he is your husband?
[00:44:35] Speaker A: Oh, well, I. I think we're just gonna meet over there next month.
[00:44:40] Speaker B: Oh, okay.
[00:44:40] Speaker A: And, you know, I'm gonna take his length and all that.
[00:44:45] Speaker C: God. Jesus Christ.
You know.
You know, when I told you that I was gonna make you get a new bit and put a end to the George C. Scott, I didn't. That was a monkey paw situation.
[00:45:02] Speaker B: I never heard you say that.
[00:45:04] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, clearly on the interwebs. Yes, yes, she told me. No more George C. Scott. Get a new bit.
[00:45:13] Speaker C: You guys need a new. I'm gu. I believe I put. I'm getting y' all a new bit for Christmas.
[00:45:17] Speaker A: I mean, Tesh to being my husband has been my bit on Blue sky, like, for three years at this point.
[00:45:24] Speaker C: This is true. This is true. I'm mostly talking about the length. All right, now I'm doing it. All right.
Grabs. Can we talk about graphs?
[00:45:33] Speaker B: We sure can.
[00:45:34] Speaker A: The length of the gaps. There was a lot of graps on this one.
[00:45:38] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:45:39] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:45:40] Speaker A: The length of this episode, man.
[00:45:44] Speaker B: The next crap we got is the Don Callis family versus Jurassic Express and Kenny Omega, which I believe was hero Josh Alexander and a returning.
I don't remember his name, but he's Australian for the Don Callis.
[00:46:01] Speaker A: Mark Davis.
[00:46:01] Speaker B: Mark Davis.
[00:46:02] Speaker A: Dunk Zilla. That's it. The guy with, like. Like, the man with, like, the most ass.
The best ass. Like, Jesus Christ.
[00:46:11] Speaker C: He's got a lot of ass.
[00:46:12] Speaker A: That dumper.
What a turd cutter.
[00:46:16] Speaker C: Jesus Christ. Yeah, this is the bit. The bit where Erica is just wrong on levels.
[00:46:22] Speaker A: Sorry.
[00:46:28] Speaker B: Speaking of, I've got my work cut out for me this week.
[00:46:34] Speaker A: You can't. I can't say turd cutter.
[00:46:37] Speaker B: You can say whatever you want, but you shouldn't.
[00:46:40] Speaker A: There's a whole Twitter account about like Mark Davis's ass.
[00:46:44] Speaker C: Really?
[00:46:45] Speaker A: Yes.
[00:46:46] Speaker C: That's amazing.
[00:46:48] Speaker A: Just like. Let's chronicle Mark Davis's giant ass because it's awesome and it is.
[00:46:54] Speaker B: It was back on AEW Juicy Pump.
[00:46:57] Speaker C: It is true.
[00:46:58] Speaker A: It was.
[00:46:59] Speaker B: They compared him to a modern Stan Hansen, I believe.
[00:47:03] Speaker C: Oh, God.
[00:47:04] Speaker B: Somebody said that on Stan Hansen. Well, not his ass, just his performance.
[00:47:13] Speaker A: I don't.
[00:47:17] Speaker B: I don't know if Stan Hansen was built like that and I'm not going to go searching to find out.
[00:47:23] Speaker C: I might. I might.
[00:47:24] Speaker A: We should, we should re. Watch.
Oh, what's that movie?
[00:47:28] Speaker C: Oh, no, the one where he says the slow.
[00:47:32] Speaker B: Yeah, he sure did.
[00:47:34] Speaker C: Sure did.
[00:47:35] Speaker A: He gets the pass. He gets the pass.
I'm giving him the pass on that one.
[00:47:40] Speaker B: But why?
[00:47:41] Speaker C: Whereas where is Goldust this week? Lost the pass.
I have hold his mandate of heaven and his laminated ally badge.
Eat and die.
The roads, all roads suck. The only good roads was dusty and he's gone.
[00:48:03] Speaker B: Yeah. At this point.
[00:48:05] Speaker C: Yeah, it's basically.
[00:48:06] Speaker B: It's a shame.
[00:48:07] Speaker C: Justice for Terry Reynolds.
Anyways, where were we?
[00:48:16] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, they showed a Bushi's injury again.
[00:48:18] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:48:19] Speaker C: Oh, God.
[00:48:21] Speaker B: Hey, in case you forgot, Wham.
[00:48:24] Speaker C: I. I forgot that I haven't been here on the show for a couple weeks, but I've caught up and like, I can't believe he did it, y'. All. Can we just say. I can't believe, like, we. What we say we came back, we started the clock, right?
It was like, how many matches does he get in? How would he have, like four, five?
[00:48:49] Speaker A: Three.
[00:48:50] Speaker C: Three. He had three?
[00:48:52] Speaker A: Yeah, he did. He had what? Rocky Okada.
Oh, oh, it was four because he was in the, the cage match.
[00:49:01] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, that's right.
[00:49:03] Speaker C: Oh, my God.
[00:49:04] Speaker A: I. I really feel like this doesn't count because, like, it's not, it's not like when a couple years ago when he was like, I'm just going to, you know, run the ropes and my ankles have shattered.
This was like freak accident. Like.
[00:49:20] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah.
[00:49:20] Speaker B: It's the kind of thing that could happen to anybody.
[00:49:23] Speaker C: I guess he did say he's like, if I get injured like this one more time, I think I might be done.
And I was like, no.
[00:49:31] Speaker A: Yeah. If you break your femur twice.
[00:49:33] Speaker B: Not that I don't want to see him, but I hope so.
[00:49:36] Speaker A: I, I want him to, to, to take care of himself.
[00:49:40] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:49:41] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:49:42] Speaker A: I hope that he makes the right decision in this, but we're gonna. I guess we're gonna get Kenny Omega versus Josh Alexander out of it.
[00:49:52] Speaker C: There's worse things.
[00:49:53] Speaker B: Yeah, that's. I know there's always been talks of that match, but it sounds like it might finally be happening, which is exciting.
[00:50:00] Speaker C: Canadian on Canadian violence.
[00:50:02] Speaker B: Always a treat. Yeah, this was a match.
[00:50:05] Speaker A: This was a match.
It did make me want to see Jack Perry versus Hachisero.
[00:50:10] Speaker B: But, like, see, I wanted to see.
[00:50:12] Speaker A: I kind of just.
[00:50:12] Speaker B: I wanted to see Kenny versus Het Sarah.
[00:50:14] Speaker A: Yes, that as well. I think I just kind of want to see, like, the thing that, like, since I've discovered Hachisero is I just want to see him wrestle everyone.
[00:50:22] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:50:23] Speaker C: Yeah. I was gonna say, like, he's the problem.
[00:50:25] Speaker A: One of those guys.
[00:50:26] Speaker B: So cool.
[00:50:26] Speaker A: He's one of those guys. I like Don trying to do his little.
[00:50:33] Speaker C: Yeah, I still love that. He just will not say. He insists on doing the whole thing. He still doesn't say it right.
[00:50:41] Speaker B: Yeah, that'.
[00:50:42] Speaker C: He's just up there saying, I am a sorcerer. And it's just like. No, that's not what you're trying to say.
[00:50:48] Speaker A: Yeah. What did he say today? The goats are crazy and hot.
[00:50:50] Speaker B: Something like that. Yeah.
[00:50:51] Speaker C: Oh, my God.
[00:50:54] Speaker A: Yeah.
I think Excalibur. I don't speak really any Spanish, but Excalibur, I guess probably does.
[00:51:00] Speaker C: So I'm learning more.
[00:51:03] Speaker A: He was able to translate. The goats are crazy and hot.
[00:51:06] Speaker B: It's more than I know.
[00:51:09] Speaker C: Like, people are like, man, this Don Callis is ridiculous. And it is. But also, he's so funny.
[00:51:17] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:51:17] Speaker C: It's like, he's just. It's like, he's so good at it. Like, it's the whole bit where they're, like, having, like, the family dinner at the restaurant and the lost brother is calling in, and he's, like, created this, like, this, like, man's club of these, like, weirdos.
[00:51:36] Speaker A: He. He really has, like, a new Heenan family vibe to it.
[00:51:39] Speaker C: Yes.
[00:51:40] Speaker B: Like, yes.
[00:51:41] Speaker A: He's got, like, the. The biggest collection of. Yes. Weirdos. He's got a clone of hologram.
He's. He's got a sorcerer. He's got a guy who's a murderer.
[00:51:56] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:51:57] Speaker A: Rocky Romero.
[00:52:01] Speaker B: Not Chuck Taylor. Trent Bretta is just there.
[00:52:03] Speaker C: Trent Barretto.
[00:52:04] Speaker A: Yeah, Trent. Trent's there.
[00:52:06] Speaker B: Is the IWGP World Heavyweight Champion. Not for loss.
[00:52:11] Speaker A: He's got. He's got Proto Twink.
[00:52:15] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:52:15] Speaker A: Kyle Fletcher.
[00:52:16] Speaker C: Mary say Okada.
[00:52:18] Speaker A: Man. Twink. Death is gonna hit him hard.
[00:52:20] Speaker C: Oh, yeah.
[00:52:22] Speaker B: You're watching that hairline, too. It's gonna be rough.
[00:52:24] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:52:25] Speaker B: Get on the. Get on the fin, buddy.
[00:52:27] Speaker A: It'll help you get on the pin. Yeah, it'll help.
[00:52:30] Speaker C: Oh, technically. And. And once the.
Once the embargo is lifted. Andrade is. Is there. He just can't.
[00:52:39] Speaker A: Is that what happened with him?
[00:52:41] Speaker C: That's what happened with him is. I guess there is a non compete went into effect.
[00:52:46] Speaker B: Whoops.
[00:52:47] Speaker C: And he. They jumped the gun. And it was like, hey, hey, hey, hey. You can't do that. He's. Oh, I'll go sit in the back.
[00:52:54] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:52:54] Speaker C: For however long it takes.
[00:52:56] Speaker A: Think they could probably fight that? Yeah. Yeah. Because those no competes are always very not legal, especially in wrestling where, like, everything is exactly.
[00:53:08] Speaker C: He told so many lies.
But yes.
[00:53:11] Speaker B: Yes. Jurassic Express takes it with a doomsday Device on Hero. 1, 2, 3. They're celebrating, and who runs out but the Young Bucks?
Super kick. Luchasaurus take out Whitland Jack Perry.
[00:53:32] Speaker A: Yeah, that. That is better than Jackknife Perry.
[00:53:36] Speaker C: It's better than Jungle Jack too. Whitland Jack. Yeah, Eat Junior.
[00:53:42] Speaker A: Whitland Jack Perry.
[00:53:43] Speaker B: Whitland Jack Whittle.
[00:53:45] Speaker A: He's just like stabbing a block of wood.
[00:53:47] Speaker C: He's learning because he's just a widdle guy.
[00:53:51] Speaker A: He's just a wittle guy.
[00:53:57] Speaker C: He wor it from Punk, the greatest in the world, CM Punk. He w it from him.
[00:54:03] Speaker A: That's so good.
[00:54:05] Speaker C: He's just a widow guy.
[00:54:07] Speaker B: This podcast really is just for four people, huh?
[00:54:10] Speaker C: Yeah.
And they're all on the show. Stuck it.
[00:54:17] Speaker B: One is. Is on assignment doing something with you.
[00:54:19] Speaker C: Yes, this is true. Fair enough. Fair enough.
[00:54:22] Speaker B: That's it, though.
But with the help of Kenneth, by God, Fitzgerald Kennedy Omega, they get one over on the Bucks.
[00:54:39] Speaker A: Yep. Kenny. Kenny just. Kenny doesn't really do anything. He's just like, what the are you doing? Don't TK Driver. The guy I just, like, made friends with again.
[00:54:48] Speaker B: Yeah, we're cool. Again. I'm trying to maybe be cool with you. The Young Bucks. I don't know. I don't. I don't know because they've teased that for a couple weeks now, but yeah, I think they. They're gonna get together maybe one last run for something.
[00:55:05] Speaker A: Take the length of it, you know.
[00:55:08] Speaker C: Oh, God damn it.
[00:55:11] Speaker B: Next up, we have Sky Blue versus Jamie Hayter.
[00:55:14] Speaker A: Yay.
[00:55:15] Speaker B: Was.
[00:55:16] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:55:16] Speaker B: Awesome.
[00:55:18] Speaker A: This kicked ass.
[00:55:20] Speaker B: Yeah, it did. I was.
They announced it earlier in the show. Was very, very excited for this. Unfortunately, one of the big parts of the match is Jamie Hayter's choice of attire.
Her kerchief, if you will.
[00:55:38] Speaker A: I liked it.
[00:55:39] Speaker B: The Kerchief the match or her getting choked out by it?
[00:55:42] Speaker A: All of it.
[00:55:43] Speaker C: Yes.
[00:55:44] Speaker A: Yeah, I like the kerchief.
[00:55:45] Speaker B: So do I. I thought the reason.
[00:55:47] Speaker A: She was wearing the kerchief was, like, she was hiding the tape on her neck.
Like, I thought that was the reason. But, like, no, she was just wearing.
[00:55:56] Speaker B: It because she's worn it before.
[00:55:57] Speaker C: No, it's just styling. Yeah, yeah.
[00:55:59] Speaker A: No, like, I. I appreciate. Like, she's a woman who's like, I like the mod style. I'm gonna stick with it. And there's my kerchief.
[00:56:06] Speaker B: It works for her.
[00:56:07] Speaker A: I'm gonna. And now I'm gonna go tell Scooby and Shaggy to. But we're gonna split up.
[00:56:12] Speaker C: I do. I do love that. Like, I do love the idea of, like, what if, like, Daphne and all that. Like, like, and all them was really into EDM and could and could clothesline the out of your face. Like, like, all of this is just. I love it. I'm a Haterade fan. I didn't always used to be, but I am all in on Jamie Hayter. Yes.
[00:56:39] Speaker B: But unfortunately, the kerchief was used against her by Julia Hart at ringside to constantly choke her out till she was finally like, fuck this. Why am I wearing it? Like, rips it off halfway through the match.
[00:56:51] Speaker A: That was when it was down to brass tacks.
[00:56:54] Speaker C: All of these are things that. That Ella was normal about.
[00:56:58] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:56:59] Speaker C: Completely normal. I would want you to put in the paper that it was normal, quote.
[00:57:02] Speaker B: Unquote, and normal about this match and everything that happened.
[00:57:08] Speaker A: This. Yeah, this was. This was, like. I was kind of surprised at how good this was. And I'm going to attribute it to Sky Blue not attempting to do moves that she can't do.
[00:57:18] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:57:19] Speaker A: Like her finish.
[00:57:21] Speaker B: She didn't get to botch that. Which was good.
[00:57:25] Speaker A: Yeah. It was. No, like. Like, she hit, like, a lot of cool stuff. She got, like, that standing shiranui, the sliced bread.
[00:57:32] Speaker B: That was nice.
[00:57:33] Speaker A: She just. It looked good.
And Jamie Hater beat the. Out of her. Yeah.
[00:57:39] Speaker B: Jamie Hater does what Jamie Hater does, and that is also win the match, which I think is unsurprising to most of us here.
[00:57:48] Speaker A: Yeah, probably. Jamie's got a pay per view match.
[00:57:51] Speaker C: Yep.
[00:57:52] Speaker B: And her opponent, Tekla, cuts a little backstage promo. Basically. It's nothing personal.
You were just here and I wanted to fight somebody. I'm not impressed by you. I don't care about you, but we're gonna fight was the message that Tekla had for her.
I did like, hate her like, in the ring. Just like, get that, get that out of here. Just waving her off was, was cute.
[00:58:17] Speaker A: Come on, Jamie, impress me. Yeah, I think they're going to kill each other on Saturday.
That is gonna be a rough match to watch.
[00:58:29] Speaker B: Yep. I think that's gonna, like, that is a, that's gonna be a sneak, like, match of the night. I think in my. Guess we get another backstage Renee interview with no longer nine belts Monet. She is now tied Ultimo Dragon and is now 10 belts Monet.
[00:58:51] Speaker C: I have feelings.
[00:58:56] Speaker A: That's right.
[00:58:58] Speaker C: Thoughts and feelings.
[00:59:00] Speaker B: Ultimo Monet.
[00:59:02] Speaker C: What do you have to say me that her?
I, I, I, I've seen Ultimo Dragon and you, ma', am, are no Ultimo Dragon. That being said, I, I seen Ultimo Dragon wrestle a Baywatch lifeguard and afterwards ask him why he was wet.
Yes. And in a moment where you would think the legend would be like, hey, I know you're the heel, but you did a good job, kid. He instead just said, you suck.
And everyone cheered and it was wonderful. It was good time. Was that by all.
[00:59:40] Speaker A: So are you reversing your opinion on ten belts, Monet?
Because.
Because you're the one who made the, the. How does this make you feel, Dragon boy? Graphic.
[00:59:50] Speaker B: That is true.
[00:59:52] Speaker C: Well, that's not. Look, look, my art is not always my own personal feelings.
[00:59:57] Speaker A: Oh, okay.
[00:59:58] Speaker C: I'm a pot. I'm a populist artist.
[01:00:01] Speaker A: Oh.
[01:00:02] Speaker C: Sometimes you have to do what you do what you gotta for.
And, and, and, and Pip here was giggling so hard at the very concept, so I had to.
[01:00:11] Speaker B: It's my fault.
[01:00:12] Speaker A: Don't recall. I don't recall it being that way.
[01:00:16] Speaker B: No, that definitely happened. I definitely giggled, like, a lot.
[01:00:20] Speaker A: Giggle up. Yes, you giggle. You do giggle a lot. That's true.
[01:00:23] Speaker C: Shut up.
[01:00:26] Speaker B: That's true.
[01:00:27] Speaker C: Point being, key point being, I worked at a long shift yesterday and I'm very high, and I can't be interested to remember what I said weeks ago. That's.
[01:00:39] Speaker A: This is more than a weeks ago. This is like months ago at this point.
[01:00:41] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:00:42] Speaker C: Oh, my God. Yeah.
[01:00:43] Speaker A: No, maybe it might not be. Like, I have no concept of time at this point.
[01:00:46] Speaker C: Yeah. See that other part? Yeah.
[01:00:48] Speaker B: It sucks and I hate it.
But I did like this. And I did like, I did like her outfit. That was very pretty.
[01:00:57] Speaker A: It's very purple.
[01:00:58] Speaker B: She looked like a damn butterfly.
[01:01:01] Speaker C: It's a beautiful butterfly.
[01:01:02] Speaker A: Yeah, because of the divas title. But she never.
[01:01:06] Speaker B: Oh, she's going for that next.
[01:01:11] Speaker C: Get her The Brad's belt.
[01:01:12] Speaker A: Watch your ass, aj.
Whoever held it last? I don't know.
[01:01:18] Speaker C: Michelle, probably Sarah.
[01:01:21] Speaker A: Yeah.
But yeah, she's. She's defending the cmm, her CMML title against Persephone on Friday. And I think she's got a match at Russell Dream, but they haven't announced it.
[01:01:34] Speaker B: I don't think they said who should in.
[01:01:38] Speaker C: Yeah, so I think she's going to win in. In Mexico and get the new record.
[01:01:47] Speaker B: That seems to be where they're heading.
[01:01:48] Speaker A: Oh, yeah, like she'll have the record because she's not defending the TBS in.
[01:01:55] Speaker C: No, no, she'll have. She's tied the record. I think she's going to beat this person for a belt and. And get the new record.
[01:02:03] Speaker B: No, no, I thought she was just defending against Persephone.
[01:02:06] Speaker C: Oh, she's defending.
[01:02:07] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Friday she's defending a CMLL title.
[01:02:11] Speaker C: Oh, never mind. It's one she already has.
[01:02:13] Speaker A: Okay.
[01:02:14] Speaker C: God damn it. It's so hard to keep track of. She's too many. All right, no, you know what? Look, I've flipped again. She got too many belts. Jesus Christ.
[01:02:22] Speaker B: The record she's going for is I think either tomorrow or Saturday, she'll have the TBS title for the longest amount of time.
[01:02:31] Speaker A: Yeah, it's like 520 days. Take that, Jade. I guess. Yeah, I could. I could. I can actually fully understand why they, like, let her do that.
[01:02:41] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, they're like, you can go ahead and on Jade Cargill.
That's fine.
[01:02:47] Speaker B: That one's fine.
[01:02:48] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, they don't really need to do that. It sounds like the Fed does that enough as it is. Boom.
[01:02:52] Speaker B: Got it.
[01:02:53] Speaker A: I don't watch. I have no idea what's happening with her there.
[01:02:58] Speaker C: But yeah, one of the last things I watched was her coming out for the women's rubble and I was very excited. But then it just seemed to not go much chatting work, you know, fedly in a Fed manner.
In a Fed like way.
Like a Fed do.
[01:03:16] Speaker B: Like the Fed do.
But the Fed don't have this. That's Hangman is their champion who comes out to join the boys in the booth for the next match of Hell yeah. LFI versus the OPS for the trio's champions.
[01:03:33] Speaker C: This whole segment might be my favorite of the night that didn't involve. This is my favorite thing of the night that didn't have Orange Cassidy in it because I'm a simple.
Because, like now you got the ops and not only do you got LFI or whatever, because you got Beast Mordos looking Fancy.
Oh, we'll get there.
Right? But on top of all that, you can't hang her and the goat, man.
Just kicking it in commentary, just having the greatest time and like Bryan Danielson just fanboying over the men's World Heavyweight Champion of the world.
[01:04:15] Speaker A: Danielson has been so good at commentary for like this reason because it's like people are like, I want to get to go hang out with Danielson. It's just like good news. I want to hang out with you too, man. Yeah, I've got, I've got some gummies on the desk right here.
[01:04:34] Speaker B: It's, it's a treat every week to see how much that man just loves pro wrestling.
[01:04:40] Speaker A: Like, like, I, that's something that we so take for granted that like, like modern wrestlers are fans of wrestling.
[01:04:48] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:04:48] Speaker A: Yeah, they love wrestling. Yeah.
[01:04:51] Speaker C: Why are these older. A lot of old generation guys were like dudes who just had no other.
Other thing they could do it. That just. You're huge. You don't have much skills. You could be a wrestler.
[01:05:02] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:05:02] Speaker C: I could teach you how to get your kicked in for a living. Like, like that's kind of what it was like for, for a lot of people.
You just get picked up at a gym because you're like lifting weights and, and you got nothing else going on in your life. And now you are addicted to Somas and.
But you've had so many hot dogs and you've shaken so many hands.
[01:05:24] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:05:26] Speaker C: Monday night fake fights returning. At some point we'll, we'll get back to the good old Soma days.
[01:05:31] Speaker A: But yeah, Shawn Michaels and his Soma's era.
[01:05:35] Speaker C: Yeah.
Anyway, this. Yeah, this.
Yeah, this. This was a good time.
[01:05:47] Speaker A: It was match. I don't, I don't think there was much to the match itself, but it was still fun. Like, that was kind of like the running theme of the night. The matches were good, but they didn't really matter because it was a go home show. Like the whole point was to be like, there's a pay per view. Nobody. Please do not hurt yourself. Yeah, but break your femur. You.
Yeah, I imagine that's what, that's, that was like TK's pre show speech is like, don't break your legs. You.
[01:06:17] Speaker C: Yeah, no, it's like that, that meme from Peaky Blinders, he's just going around the locker room smacking people. Don't break anything. Don't break anything. No breaking.
[01:06:27] Speaker A: No injuries.
[01:06:28] Speaker C: No injuries.
[01:06:30] Speaker A: No injuries.
[01:06:32] Speaker C: But what about no injuries?
He's got the accent and everything because of the football team.
Yeah. The soccer. Pardon me?
Because, you know, you have to make that distinction because of that, you know, football team.
[01:06:47] Speaker B: Right, Right.
[01:06:48] Speaker C: God damn it.
Stop doing so much with your billionaire money. Just put it all into wrestling.
[01:06:54] Speaker A: I think that's his dad, though. Or is that him?
[01:06:58] Speaker C: Ah, who knows?
God, Now I forgot what I was gonna say. Oh. But the storytelling, which was the. This. This going on between Shibata and Roosh.
Oh, my God.
[01:07:15] Speaker A: Oh, God.
[01:07:17] Speaker C: Oh, my God. The one point where he. Shabbat has got the. Forget which one, but he's got different L5 guy on his knees. He's lining him up like he's gonna drive a knee into him, and instead he veers off and gives Roosh the length.
[01:07:38] Speaker A: The bit stays. The bit stays.
[01:07:45] Speaker C: T shirt incoming.
If Jeff were here and I could lay out and. And work on that while y' all entertain me, as is tradition usually. But no, he, like. He, like. He's like, no, I'm. I gotta stop what I'm doing to put my boot in this motherfucker's face, because I hate him.
[01:08:05] Speaker A: Shibata is, like, the very last guy I would ever want to just, like, look at me and say, you are going to get hit.
[01:08:12] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:08:13] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:08:14] Speaker C: I must kill you.
You specifically must die.
[01:08:20] Speaker A: And that's, like. That's what makes it cool. Because Roosh is also the kind of person who's like, I don't care. I will hit you back.
Yeah, let's go.
[01:08:28] Speaker C: I would not. I, for one, would not want the Hearns.
So, like, I. Yeah, this is a fantastic little.
Little feud that. That they're cooking up. And I. I say stew it. Stew it some more.
Simmer a little spice to taste like. This is great.
[01:08:49] Speaker A: Toss a bay leaf in there.
[01:08:51] Speaker C: Yeah. All. Oh, at least two. At least two. I'm not driving.
[01:08:55] Speaker A: You watch Anti Chef?
[01:08:57] Speaker C: Oh, hell yeah, I do.
Pip is like, I, I.
None of those words are in the Bible. We're talking about wrestling.
[01:09:10] Speaker A: YouTube. YouTube.
Anyway. Oh, Hangman had one of my. One of the best lines on. On commentary.
[01:09:19] Speaker B: This was my line of the night.
[01:09:21] Speaker A: They asked him, like, what do you think of Samoa Joe? He's like. He's an absolute Christmas ham of a man.
[01:09:28] Speaker C: That popped the. Out of Brian Danielson.
[01:09:32] Speaker B: An absolute Christmas ham of a man. But he can move like no other.
[01:09:38] Speaker C: That was the other thing, though, is he's not wrong.
[01:09:41] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:09:42] Speaker C: Because of watching this match. And I'm like, how is it? He's an old man.
[01:09:47] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:09:47] Speaker C: He looks, like, so good. He's moving so quick. I'm like, what the, dude?
[01:09:53] Speaker B: Yeah, I had that thought as well of like, we've been lucky enough to watch Samoa Joe like at this level for now, decades.
[01:10:04] Speaker A: Like right. Like he's, he's. Lots of wrestlers get old and they don't know what to do with themselves anymore.
Joe, Joe kind of just has like that kind of perfect style where like he can absolutely work his style of match and he's still believable. Like it's, it's kind of, it's like the Minoru Suzuki effect kind of. Yeah, yeah. Suzuki's what, 55 now?
And he still has that aura. Joe has that aura. I've never seen a Samoa Joe. Like Samojo has been over multiple companies for decades at this point. And he shows up and it's immediately like everybody pops for him.
[01:10:50] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. And everyone knows he's not to be with.
[01:10:56] Speaker A: Do not with some 46 year old. Samoa Joe will still kill you.
[01:11:01] Speaker C: Oh yeah, Joe's gonna kill you. Like that's the most believable chant.
[01:11:08] Speaker A: Which.
[01:11:08] Speaker B: Is I think what makes Saturday that much more exciting. Because there's always a chance with Joe.
[01:11:18] Speaker C: Yeah, there's always a chance.
[01:11:20] Speaker A: He's one of the most believable guys on the roster.
And like we talked about it last week, he literally was just like, wait a minute, I'm Samoa Joe. Yeah, give me that title.
[01:11:35] Speaker B: Which he did get his hands on. After the OPS won the match, they got jumped by LFI again. After the bell rings, Hangman comes in for the save. Joe is not all that happy about it, but he sees the world title there, picks it up slow, turn around to Hangman, shoves it back into him like Hangman did a couple weeks ago and then walks off.
Great. What a great perfect way to end the wrestling for the week.
[01:12:07] Speaker A: This was great. I'm sold. This was a fantastic Dynamite. And you know what? I'm ready to have a little nap before we record the pod. Oh, wait.
[01:12:17] Speaker C: Yeah. Wait, wait. No, no, no, no. It was a good two hours of wrestling.
[01:12:22] Speaker A: No, you can't be serious.
[01:12:24] Speaker B: There's our three of this three hour broadcast of aew.
[01:12:28] Speaker C: Is it Dynamite? Is it Collision? Who knows?
[01:12:31] Speaker A: It's Dinolicious.
[01:12:33] Speaker B: Dinolicious. We get the copyright and everything because they have to switch and run the, the programming stuff because we're in hour three now. But opens up with the Death Riders and I don't know. I say opens up, we're in hour three. It's Death Riders versus Kyle Riley and oc.
[01:12:53] Speaker A: Yeah, they, they really didn't even pretend. They just, like, changed, like, all right. The graphic now says collision. It's a new show.
[01:12:59] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:13:00] Speaker A: Leave us the alone.
[01:13:01] Speaker B: Warner Brothers commentary doesn't care anymore there.
Yeah, they're not.
[01:13:08] Speaker A: They're not quite switched out. Turned out. Tuned out yet.
[01:13:12] Speaker B: No, it was the last, like, half an hour. 20 minutes.
[01:13:15] Speaker A: They're getting there.
Yeah.
[01:13:18] Speaker B: It's Wheeler Yuta and Danny Garcia versus Kyle O'Reilly and Orange Cassidy.
Just another good match.
[01:13:25] Speaker A: I like Danielson thinking that he can become friends with Orange Cassidy because they both hate Wheeler Yuta.
[01:13:31] Speaker C: Understandable.
[01:13:32] Speaker A: He's not. He's not considered. Just asking him. It's like, do you. Hey, do you hate Wheeler Yuta? I as well hate Wheeler Yuta. Would you like to be friends?
[01:13:41] Speaker C: Yeah. Right.
[01:13:42] Speaker A: I can give you. I can give you plastic bags and matches if you would want to murder.
[01:13:48] Speaker C: You know me. I don't, as a rule, generally don't take notes for the show because I can. But I did note two things for this because it was pretty good.
First of all, the.
The fuzzy quality Orange Cassidy graphic.
[01:14:07] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:14:10] Speaker B: It just keeps getting worse.
It's awesome.
[01:14:14] Speaker A: He's buffering, he's chilling. Try.
[01:14:16] Speaker C: And so it's like, I love that they keep trying, but it's just not right. And it's.
[01:14:22] Speaker A: He's on dial up.
[01:14:25] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:14:25] Speaker C: He's so good. My man is. My good juice boy is still over, and I'm just so happy. Like, it. It has not died down.
I, I. The me. The rest of the juicers were. Were with me just, like, waiting for him, and he's back.
And the other thing I noted is that you know why Wheeler unit's entrance theme sounds like a bunch of farting.
[01:14:51] Speaker B: Why is that?
[01:14:53] Speaker C: Because he's a little.
[01:14:57] Speaker A: I think that was Daniel Garcia's entrance.
[01:15:01] Speaker C: Wait, really?
[01:15:02] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:15:03] Speaker C: Daniel Garcia? That doesn't make sense.
[01:15:05] Speaker A: That was his Death Rider entrance.
[01:15:06] Speaker C: Oh, it's gross. I thought that was Wheeler. Utah's day D. Death Rider androids.
[01:15:11] Speaker A: Yeah, Wheel. Wheeler UT is kind of like a. Like a super Sentai kind of thing.
[01:15:18] Speaker C: Fascinating.
[01:15:22] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:15:22] Speaker C: Oh, well, my joke is funnier. So for the case of this joke.
[01:15:31] Speaker B: God damn it.
[01:15:34] Speaker C: New bit. New bit for Christmas.
Yeah. All right. You can have Scott Tober, and then it's done.
[01:15:40] Speaker B: Thank you, Mom.
[01:15:41] Speaker C: Yeah, you're welcome, hon. You're good.
[01:15:43] Speaker A: That wasn't even the George C. Scott voice. It was just.
[01:15:47] Speaker B: That was just Wheeler.
[01:15:49] Speaker C: You. That's just Wheelie.
[01:15:52] Speaker A: Yuda.
He's doing his Brian Danielson impersonation.
[01:15:57] Speaker C: My beard.
Yeah.
Damn it. You got me. To George C. Scott. You really have won. Yes, you really won.
[01:16:13] Speaker A: We broke you. We broke you. The way that John Moxley breaks people to make them join the Death Riders. Yes, you join the Scott writers.
[01:16:23] Speaker C: At least till the end of October.
Then we will renegotiate the state of the bit.
[01:16:32] Speaker A: There's nothing to negotiate. It's awesome. It's clearly. Like you said, we got, like, new listeners this week. We're here for George.
[01:16:40] Speaker C: Yeah, it's working everywhere. It's son of a.
[01:16:43] Speaker B: It's that scotttober magic.
[01:16:46] Speaker C: I can't argue the numbers, you know? God damn it.
[01:16:49] Speaker A: We ride the Scott gimmick until the week breaks fall off.
[01:16:52] Speaker C: Me and the girls in the lab are gonna get right on this anyways.
Yes.
Or O.C. is here to save the day.
[01:17:02] Speaker A: I have snorted like a beautiful lady that I am.
[01:17:05] Speaker C: We got. It's a one snort episode. One snorter.
[01:17:08] Speaker A: It's a one snorter.
[01:17:10] Speaker B: We still have an hour of broadcast to.
To go through yet.
[01:17:14] Speaker C: Break my record. Oh, God. Jesus Christ.
[01:17:16] Speaker A: No.
[01:17:17] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:17:17] Speaker C: No, this isn't the main event.
[01:17:19] Speaker A: It's long.
[01:17:20] Speaker B: No, it's.
This is.
This is, in fact, a match.
I do like Kyle and oc's chemistry, though. I think they work really well together.
I liked when they got. I think it was. They got Garcia in the ropes, and, like, Kyle's doing the kicks and Orange is doing the lazy. Orange Cassidy chops. And then, like, Wheeler Uter runs in, and they, like, shuffle them around also get him up against the ropes on top of Garcia, and Kyle O'Reilly does the kicks. And then Orange Star starts shopping the. Out of him because he hates Wheeler Yuta that much.
[01:17:57] Speaker C: Yeah. Yes. Because he's a little.
Take that.
[01:18:02] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, again, it was, like, another fun match, but, like, I don't have a ton to say about it.
[01:18:06] Speaker B: Yeah, that's. That's how I felt.
[01:18:08] Speaker C: Don't get injured. Don't get injured. Yeah, don't get it.
[01:18:10] Speaker A: Yeah, don't get hurt. Don't get hurt. And, like, they. They, like, even Danielson was just like, I'm. It's like, it's time. I don't want to be here anymore. It's time to have fun. I've eaten all these gummies with Hangman.
[01:18:23] Speaker B: Like, he.
[01:18:23] Speaker A: Like, he just blurt. Like, he. Like, they're. Tony Schiavone is talking about how, like, the Death Riders all, like, change their look when they joined the Death Riders. And then Daniel's just. Just, like, Pac is wearing clothes, which is absurd.
[01:18:36] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:18:39] Speaker B: Which is what we're all thinking, which.
[01:18:41] Speaker A: Is what truly is all of us reads the Internet.
[01:18:45] Speaker B: Yep.
[01:18:45] Speaker C: Yeah, he. He make. He's making. He. And he's making himself a. A much needed audience insert in a way like that we haven't quite had before. And it's really great. It's really working for me. I didn't know we needed that. Yeah, it's a good addition.
[01:19:06] Speaker A: He's the voice of the fan. That's really what he is.
[01:19:08] Speaker C: Yeah, he's the voice of the fan. Yeah. Box wearing clothes. It's absurd, sir.
It's like you changed, man. You changed. Start wearing clothes and it's up anyway.
[01:19:25] Speaker B: But with any Death Riders match, there's shenanigans as they come out and Mox comes out. Death Riders score the win.
Conglomeration comes out, there's a whole beat down. And then Darby comes out for some reason and looks like a shambling husk as he makes his way to the ring.
[01:19:50] Speaker A: Yes.
[01:19:51] Speaker B: Constantly gets the beat out of him, but he keeps. He keeps trucking that Darby does.
[01:19:57] Speaker A: He's trying his best.
[01:19:59] Speaker B: Manages to. To climb himself into the ring. Death Riders, like, just kind of let him because Mox is in there and know. They know he's.
[01:20:08] Speaker A: Well, let's. Let's. Let's.
The. His march to the ring was not an easy one, because first he's dragging himself, and then Claudio just trucks him like he, he, he pro. Like he. He got like three feet, and Claudio sent him back five.
[01:20:28] Speaker C: Yeah, that was nuts.
[01:20:30] Speaker A: And then he just kind of let him keep going, and then pot comes in and kicks his ass. Yep, he keeps going.
And then here come Garcia and Yuta, just like little Chihuahuas. Like, they're just like, doing, like, the little bit. Oh, we'll harm him.
[01:20:50] Speaker C: Yes, we heard you.
[01:20:52] Speaker B: I'm gonna swing my fists like this. And if you get hit, it's your own fault.
[01:20:57] Speaker C: Your own fault.
Yeah.
[01:20:59] Speaker A: So, yeah, like, he, they. They did. They like, beat the out of him, but just. Just let him get to the ring anyway.
[01:21:06] Speaker B: Yeah. Like, Mox is there as the final boss, and he's about to say something. Darby steals the mic, pulls the aforementioned Everest flag out of his pocket, and is like, mox, it's never too late to quit. And then he eats a Death Rider on the flag that he spread out on the ground, and that's that.
Okay.
[01:21:32] Speaker A: Do you know what that gauntlet was? That was like the worst fromsoft run back of all time.
[01:21:38] Speaker C: Yeah, basically it was.
[01:21:41] Speaker A: That's like, oh, I've got to get to the boss Gonna get through this.
This. There's this boss that was like, you know, there's this enemy that. There's this mob that was a boss. There's this other mob. There's this pack of mobs.
[01:21:55] Speaker B: Yep.
[01:21:56] Speaker A: There's Marina.
[01:21:58] Speaker C: My brain was like. My brain was liking it to getting through a Pokemon dungeon.
Like a Pokemon gym. Like, you gotta beat all the trainers before you get to the leader.
[01:22:09] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:22:09] Speaker C: And. Yeah. And then. And it makes you all beat the.
By the time you get there.
[01:22:14] Speaker A: And.
[01:22:15] Speaker C: Yeah. No, it's not good.
[01:22:16] Speaker A: The difference is that you just died here.
[01:22:20] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:22:20] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:22:20] Speaker A: It's like, oh, I've got one estus flask left. Okay, Darby, you're dead.
[01:22:27] Speaker C: One shot.
[01:22:28] Speaker A: Yeah, I got my item that I brought this time. Is this gonna help?
[01:22:34] Speaker B: No.
[01:22:36] Speaker C: Oh, gosh. Wait. No. One thing that we skipped over that I didn't get a chance to talk about that I have to make sure gets out the mic for everyone to know.
[01:22:44] Speaker A: Okay.
[01:22:45] Speaker C: When O.C. did the Daniel Garcia dance, I got Covid.
[01:22:51] Speaker A: Right.
[01:22:55] Speaker C: I'm not sorry.
[01:22:58] Speaker A: Giving me for the length jokes.
[01:23:00] Speaker C: Yeah, I know. Okay, look, look, it was really, really hot. I'm sorry. I don't know why.
Oh, I just. I. Sir, I would put my hand in your pockets anytime. Just Daniel.
[01:23:13] Speaker A: He did the Daniel dance. I think I have Covid.
[01:23:15] Speaker C: I think I have co. Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, I hear CM Punk.
[01:23:21] Speaker A: If there's. If there is one thing I would note from this match, I. I do enjoy Orange Cassidy hitting best friends callbacks on Wheeler Yuta.
[01:23:30] Speaker C: Yes, yes.
Also true.
[01:23:33] Speaker A: So I truly hope that he continues to do that until Willer Yuta ceases to exist.
[01:23:41] Speaker B: Or comes to his senses.
[01:23:42] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:23:43] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:23:45] Speaker A: He can either die or turn face, Whichever.
That seems to be how aw works. You either turn face or you die.
Can there be a third option?
[01:23:55] Speaker C: No.
[01:23:55] Speaker A: Can I just. No, that's death. Yeah.
[01:23:59] Speaker C: You retire and you go on commentary and you're a delight.
[01:24:04] Speaker A: That is true.
[01:24:05] Speaker B: That's the new Game plus of Game plus is commentary.
[01:24:09] Speaker A: Yeah, just like I could. I can just eat edibles and point out all the inconsistencies and be the.
[01:24:14] Speaker C: Voice of the tell Hager how much I love his matches. And like. Yeah, no, like, you.
[01:24:20] Speaker A: You could.
[01:24:20] Speaker B: You could.
[01:24:21] Speaker A: You could tell that, like, whatever edibles Danielson was taking throughout, like, the first two hours were, like, really starting to hit an hour three.
I was waiting for him to start doing the dolphin pod. Buzzing.
[01:24:40] Speaker C: Speaking of hour three, where the are we in hour three?
[01:24:44] Speaker B: Oh, boy, you're coming up on the Megan, Bane and Harley Cameron match.
[01:24:49] Speaker A: Yeah.
No, we're not. No, we're not. No.
[01:24:52] Speaker B: Technically they were supposed to have it. Megan Bane comes out and then FTR comes out to join her and they have a little promo. Megan Bame basically just disses Willow Nightingale Stoke also disses Willow Nightingale and says he cannot express how much he hates her, but he can express how much he hates jet speed. He thinks that Kevin Knight is wasting his potential with Mike Bailey, who he said looks like Billy Ray Silas. Excuse me? Looks like Billy Ray Silas.
Billy Ray Cyrus with an autoimmune disorder.
[01:25:31] Speaker A: God damn, dude.
[01:25:33] Speaker C: That's like an AIDS joke. Like, basically.
[01:25:36] Speaker B: I think so.
[01:25:38] Speaker A: Or.
Or he's got Lyme's disease. I don't know.
[01:25:42] Speaker C: Yeah. All I know is if you say autoimmune disorder and you just take the first letter of each of those words, was it spell?
[01:25:49] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:25:50] Speaker C: I feel like that might have been an AIDS joke and I'm just gonna let it slide because it's not June and he can't get no hoes.
But AIDS joke on the Queer Wrestler is not the best look. Still.
[01:26:02] Speaker B: No, it's. It's not his best work.
[01:26:04] Speaker C: Not his best work. You're better than this. You're better.
[01:26:07] Speaker A: Yeah, it was very. It was like, what the man? Like, yeah, like, I mean, like, like, look, okay, I'm, I'm willing to be the kind of person that is just going to say we should let heels be heels and yes. Terrible things more often. Like, I, I think that, I do think that some people get like overly up in arms when, like MJF does heal stuff. He's like, oh, why would he, why would he bring sex workers to the Hurt Syndicate? Like, because he's a heel.
[01:26:41] Speaker C: Because he's a heel who was raised on 90s Wrestling. Fed Wrestling.
[01:26:46] Speaker A: Like, he would, he would, he would try and use sex to buy his way into the Hurt Syndicate and he can't them.
[01:26:53] Speaker C: Yes, exactly. So no. And it's not. And I don't even think it's scold worthy.
[01:27:00] Speaker A: No.
[01:27:00] Speaker C: But so much as I was just like, oh, man, you got better, man. Was that. Is that an AIDS joke? Like, what?
[01:27:09] Speaker A: Yeah.
Can do better than that. Like that. That's usually my thing. It's like when heels do stuff like that, is like, is that the best possible use of syllables and words that you could have combined? And in this case.
[01:27:22] Speaker B: Nah, I would expect that from one of the other FTR guys. Not necessarily from here.
[01:27:27] Speaker A: I would expect this from like a CZW show.
[01:27:31] Speaker C: Yeah, that was like the Kind. That's what I'm saying. That that's the kind of level of humor it was. And I know we can do better. One of my favorite podcasts that's not about wrestling, it's called My Mama Told me uses his no hose promo as, like, a drop in their show now, like, repeatedly. They've used it more times, like short a bald and get no hoes. I've been five fighting all my life.
[01:28:00] Speaker B: Amazing.
[01:28:01] Speaker C: I love him so much. So it's like, dude, do better because you're the best.
[01:28:07] Speaker A: Yeah, he really is.
[01:28:08] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:28:09] Speaker A: Anyways, this the promo. I. I don't think the promos were bad, but I was also very much like, just, please just start the match. Yeah, I want to see the match. Like, I'd seen clips of the match, but, like, I was like, I kind of want to see this because this looks really cool. Yeah.
[01:28:24] Speaker B: Yeah, we got.
[01:28:25] Speaker A: Do the match.
Do the match.
[01:28:28] Speaker C: My God.
[01:28:30] Speaker B: Do the match.
[01:28:32] Speaker A: Do the match.
[01:28:33] Speaker C: Do the monster match.
[01:28:35] Speaker B: It felt like it was the most, like, padding. It felt like the.
[01:28:40] Speaker A: Yes.
[01:28:40] Speaker B: The show had.
[01:28:41] Speaker A: They had nothing for hour three. And they're just like, we gotta drag this out. And, like, I'm like, I'm fine with it. Like, I'm not. Well, obviously I'm not fine with it. I'm complaining about it. I was about to say, like.
Like, they did. Like, it was just like there was. It's like little things that were just like. That's kind of funny. Like, they're in Kansas City and Dax is like, Kansas, calm down. Let, like draws, like, huge boost because, like, oh, we're not in Kansas. We're Missouri.
Kansas. And. Yeah, Kansas, sure. I don't know. I don't know anybody from there. Kansas. And then you had, like, the faces had to respond.
And FTR stands for feel the wrath and you can't edge. I did actually, like, this line. She's missing the W, so it's time to go get one.
[01:29:26] Speaker B: Yeah. No, that was a good.
[01:29:28] Speaker C: It's so good.
[01:29:29] Speaker A: That was good. Harley is. Harley's awesome.
[01:29:31] Speaker B: Yeah. The faces come in and save it. They have their backstage, like, call out, like, with that. That Harley line was good. And then they come out and everybody has a big old beat down. And then the match actually starts.
[01:29:44] Speaker C: Harley, I feel like we say it a lot. I'm good. It bears repeating. Harley is getting so good at professional wrestling.
[01:29:53] Speaker A: It's silly.
It's been a while since I've seen her have a singles match, I think. But this kicked.
[01:30:01] Speaker C: Oh, my God. That's what it is. I haven't seen her in the singles in a while. You're right. I was like, what's the difference here and now if she hold her own? Like, God, what. That one bit where she, like, got her bent up in the ropes and was like, choking out with her legs, like, oh. And then, like getting the coward. It was almost heelish. It's like, that's a legal move, but, you know, it works. And I was just like, yeah, no, she's, like, vicious, like, feeling the wrath. Like, she's really getting into it.
Like, she's so good. I love her, her so much. And then, you know, puppets.
She's just the best. I'm a simple creature.
I like, I like what? My wrestling series. Silly. Silly.
[01:30:44] Speaker A: I really do think, like, of all the matches tonight, this is the one, like, where I wrote down the most spots too.
[01:30:49] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:30:50] Speaker A: Because, like, I had like, the ropes thing. She got like the big DDT counter. She got the tree of woe.
The one. The. The clip that I had seen on social media before I actually watched the match was when, like, Bane is just like ragdolling her and just like carries her up on her shoulders and just like, I'm climbing the turnbuckle with her. I'm going to kill her.
And apparently slips out and just hits like this gigantic power bomb.
[01:31:19] Speaker B: That was cool.
[01:31:20] Speaker C: Yep, yep. And that was really close.
[01:31:22] Speaker B: Near fall.
[01:31:24] Speaker C: I thought she was gonna almost get it there. Yeah.
[01:31:26] Speaker A: I really, like, I. I really bought Harley Cameron winning this match because they kept bringing up that, like, Megan Bain has only been pinned once and it was by a flash pin by Toni Storm. Like.
[01:31:37] Speaker B: Yep.
[01:31:38] Speaker A: I thought they were gonna do it here.
[01:31:40] Speaker C: Yeah. And that'd be. I mean, when they finally, like, when they finally go, like, it's time.
You're you, you. It's you. Like, Harley is over. You are the one. One. You have the power.
You know what I mean? Like, like all of a sudden you have the stock where, like, you could beat a Megan Bane.
That's gonna be nuts.
[01:32:03] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:32:03] Speaker C: Like, it's gonna be so cool. Like, oh, my God, that moment where she's like, up and up to that next layer, you know, that next level of guy girl in this matter, you know? Like.
Yeah, I'm so excited for her with.
[01:32:22] Speaker B: The way things are going for her. That will be sooner rather than later for sure.
[01:32:26] Speaker A: I think. So. Like, she, like, she, she's. She's so close. Like, the pop she got when she kicked out of the bow down, like, yeah. People were just like, yes, this is It. Let's go. Like, people were buying into it that she could win as they should.
[01:32:43] Speaker B: But unfortunately, unfortunately, like, she did not get the win.
[01:32:49] Speaker A: She did not get the win. She got absolutely murdered.
That was like, Bane does a really nasty running liger bomb. But, like, holy crap. Like this. Like, the way she hit that.
[01:33:03] Speaker B: This one was especially nasty.
[01:33:05] Speaker A: The way she hit that made me think. I was like, is. Is that a receipt? Holy crap.
[01:33:11] Speaker C: Yeah. Jesus.
Like, you broke her nose. What the.
[01:33:18] Speaker B: It should be the other way around.
[01:33:20] Speaker C: God damn.
[01:33:21] Speaker B: But after that, I can sum up these next few segments really quickly. We get a hook and Eddie Kingston promo. They said, come to tailgate on Saturday. We'll be there.
We're getting acclaimed promo. They don't like each other.
And then we're on to the main.
[01:33:40] Speaker C: They're not the acclaimed. Yeah.
[01:33:42] Speaker A: Oh, that's right. I. I want to. I want to. I want to say one thing, please. Oh, yeah. They're not the acclaim. I want to say one thing about them. That whole angle is uncomfortable because they're, like, very clearly saying, like, we don't want to team with each other.
[01:33:55] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:33:56] Speaker A: And they keep getting, like, forced together and.
[01:33:59] Speaker C: Yeah. It's a little weird.
[01:34:01] Speaker A: Just stop. Like, this is really uncomfortable. Let's. Like.
[01:34:05] Speaker C: Like, I see what you're. I see what you're doing, but also, it's like. It's kind of weird.
It's kind of gross.
[01:34:12] Speaker B: It's gonna be on dysfunctional tag team. Like, it's. It's. It's something different, and it's something bad.
[01:34:19] Speaker A: It's deeply uncomfortable.
[01:34:20] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:34:21] Speaker A: For me, as somebody who has, like, been in, like, toxic relationships and all that other stuff is like, there's a point where it's just like, I don't want to be around this person anymore.
I don't care if I'm the bad person in this. Just, like, we need to not be around each other.
[01:34:36] Speaker B: Anyways. Main event, Don Calh, Don Callis, family of Lance Archer, Rocky Romero and Kyle Fletcher versus Mark Briscoe and Bro Dido.
[01:34:51] Speaker A: This is cool.
[01:34:52] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:34:53] Speaker A: The Bandito had, like, a mega baby face moment with, like, the two kids at ringside.
[01:34:59] Speaker B: Yeah.
Those kids were getting all the hype throughout the night.
[01:35:04] Speaker A: That's. That's how you make a baby face.
[01:35:06] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:35:07] Speaker C: This match had several moments that I adored, to be honest.
I'm guessing you can. I'm guessing you can guess some of them, because, yes, I am simple. And I. I know. I know what I like.
And I like when. When. When wrestlers I enjoy do silly Dance.
[01:35:25] Speaker A: Yeah, there was much Macarena ink.
[01:35:28] Speaker C: You get Chicken in on it this time.
[01:35:32] Speaker A: Yeah, Archer did it, too.
[01:35:34] Speaker C: Oh, my God.
[01:35:36] Speaker A: Oh, my God. Yeah.
[01:35:39] Speaker C: But, yeah, they did the spot because, like, you know, they love to do the thing where Brody throws Bandito at. At people. So they're like, we're gonna kill this twink. And. And they're like, we're on it. Yes, boss. And first he throws chicken at him, and chicken lands on him. And then he does the big whole thing, pancakes Bandito onto him, and it's great. And then Bandito gets up, and him and Chicken just immediately start Macarena ing. As they fade to commercial.
[01:36:11] Speaker A: It's like, brody. Brody, come on. He's throws up the X. Yep. No.
[01:36:15] Speaker C: Yeah.
[01:36:17] Speaker B: I love.
[01:36:18] Speaker A: I love how that is just like, this is no Macarena wrestle.
[01:36:25] Speaker B: I'm telling you, when he does that at the pay per View, that is gonna blow the roof off the place.
[01:36:30] Speaker A: He's got a Macarena all over Okada, and we're gonna see the full length of him.
[01:36:38] Speaker C: God damn it. God.
[01:36:39] Speaker A: It didn't really work as well. I'm sorry. That was.
[01:36:41] Speaker C: That's all right. They can't all be winners.
[01:36:43] Speaker A: They can't all land. You know, it did land. Commentary was just going like, we're done. We're done.
[01:36:50] Speaker C: I wanted.
[01:36:52] Speaker B: I didn't even write down. They were just so fast talking about Mark Brisco and, like, the. The world should be full of Mark Briscoes. And he's working on making the world full of Mark Briscoes and how virile he is.
[01:37:05] Speaker A: Like, yes, Mark Briscoe is outpacing Don and growing his family, and that's why he has.
And then, like, Don says, like, I think it's admiral to have that many kids. To which Danielson replies, yes, so does Elon Musk.
It's like, no, no, don't make it political.
No, don't go there in.
Oh, what? God, what was the other one? It was like, oh, there's, like. There's some goose goofball at ringside dressed like Don Callis. And Excalibur immediately goes, no, that's just Don.
And then again, silence from Danielson and Callous specifically, because, you know, they're like, crack.
[01:37:55] Speaker B: And again, this is all while the match is happening, too.
[01:37:58] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, I don't even think this is during the commercial break on Triller. This was just like, they're just.
I don't give a.
Elon Musk's army of Eugenics children is not as good as Mark Briscoe's army of chicken farming children.
[01:38:16] Speaker B: Grown American chicken farming children.
[01:38:18] Speaker A: Old girl. Made with pure grade Brisco length.
[01:38:23] Speaker C: And none of them, none of them wearing mouthpieces.
[01:38:26] Speaker B: No.
[01:38:27] Speaker C: No Harry Potter wearing. No feed.
[01:38:30] Speaker B: This is.
[01:38:31] Speaker A: This was so good.
[01:38:33] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:38:34] Speaker C: Yes, it was.
[01:38:36] Speaker B: It was fun.
[01:38:36] Speaker A: Like, I don't, I don't, I don't particularly care much for the match one way or the other, but like, like, it was fine. But like, commentary was like, we're done. Like, we've been out here like too long. We're not union contracted this.
[01:38:49] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:38:50] Speaker A: Talking about Mark Brisco making babies.
[01:38:53] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:38:53] Speaker C: Yeah.
It's a, it's a. We. It's a weeknight and. And you're not paying me pay per view wages. Like, let's go home. This is what you like, take it the home.
[01:39:04] Speaker A: Don Callis is reciting Wuang Clan lyrics.
[01:39:07] Speaker B: Yeah, he sure did.
[01:39:10] Speaker C: He was good.
[01:39:13] Speaker A: We bake the cake and then we eat the cake.
[01:39:16] Speaker C: Okay, I forgot.
Oh my God, he's growing. Dick Jones is growing on me.
[01:39:27] Speaker A: God damn. Dick, Dick, Dick, Dick Jones.
[01:39:31] Speaker C: Dicklet. He's like a Diglett. He's like a Diglett.
[01:39:34] Speaker A: Yeah, he is like a Diglett. Yeah. Jones.
[01:39:37] Speaker C: There we go.
[01:39:37] Speaker A: I've seen that. I've seen that comparison made on signs I liked. I like that they're still selling Bandito shoulder and like he's still like almost gorilla presses Archer. But so like, you know, like at the pay per view he's going to do it to Okada with one arm or something and just launch him into the cheap seats.
[01:40:07] Speaker C: He's kind of. Because he's not human. He's bandido.
[01:40:10] Speaker A: Yes. Bandito crime does pay.
[01:40:14] Speaker B: Even with his shoulder all messed up, they still managed to get the win here tonight and thank everybody. Just like most matches tonight, just another big old beat down. I did like how Briscoe and Fletcher are like beating each other down the ramp onto the stage out to backstage. Like, we're gonna come in on Saturday and they're just still gonna be beating the. Out of each other.
[01:40:44] Speaker C: Beat your ass home and just.
[01:40:46] Speaker B: Yep.
[01:40:47] Speaker C: Beat your ass all the way to Delaware, you know?
[01:40:50] Speaker A: Yes, they did. The.
Was it a clone?
[01:40:54] Speaker B: El clone comes out.
[01:40:55] Speaker C: Oh, yeah.
[01:40:56] Speaker B: Did the fun little hand thing.
[01:40:59] Speaker A: Yes, it was fun because it's like, it was like a little bit of a silent hill thing because like. Or he like he glitches, right?
So like he does hologram, does this, he does that. So like he does this and then it's just like sideways to the sea Sideways.
I'm not gonna call it El Clone. He's El Clone.
[01:41:17] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah. It's all clan to me because it rhymes with Khan. So I can go.
[01:41:28] Speaker A: Star Trek.
[01:41:29] Speaker B: Yes.
But he comes out, distracts the champs. Okada nails a belt shot on Brody. King hits Bandito with a Rainmaker and stands tall over the tag team champs to close the show out.
[01:41:46] Speaker A: That was an interesting reaction from Okada to. To Cash to winning the iwgp.
Just like, well, I'll beat up the tag team champions by myself. Yeah, you soup guy.
[01:42:01] Speaker B: You soup guy.
[01:42:03] Speaker A: And I also think. I also want to say that I feel like they're building towards Okada versus Bandito. And I'm very much all about that.
[01:42:12] Speaker B: Yeah. Those are four guys that you could take them. Like, give me X versus Y and put whoever in there and it's going to be a good match.
[01:42:21] Speaker C: Feel that way about the whole roster. Honestly, Both genders.
[01:42:25] Speaker B: Yeah. Right now.
[01:42:26] Speaker C: Yeah.
It's really something else.
[01:42:29] Speaker A: Did they do Brody versus Okada last year for the C2?
[01:42:34] Speaker B: I don't remember.
[01:42:36] Speaker A: I can't remember if they were in the same block or not. I know Brody didn't get out of the blocks, but I would like to see that as well. Just. Yes, do that.
Do that. It's good Tournament Okada is exciting to me.
I.
I want to see Bandido. I want to see Okada. I want to see Okada versus Takeshita. Go watch Takeshita versus Zack Saber Jr.
Yeah. This was a good show. It just needed to not be three hours.
[01:43:04] Speaker B: Yes.
[01:43:05] Speaker C: Hey, I got work in the morning. I have to go mine Briscoes.
[01:43:10] Speaker B: Yep, you have to go mine Briscoes. We have to prepare for the Mind Briscoes to fight.
[01:43:16] Speaker A: Hila.
[01:43:18] Speaker C: Yeah, apparently.
[01:43:19] Speaker A: Apparently that's what's going on.
[01:43:21] Speaker C: Look, I do what the goat tells me, all right?
[01:43:23] Speaker A: You're. You're part of the crusade against.
Yes.
The. The bower.
[01:43:30] Speaker C: The poor.
God damn it.
Yeah. I mean, you're not wrong. Where's the lie?
[01:43:39] Speaker B: This has been yet another episode of Wednesday Night Fake Fights.
We're all quickly growing delusional, which I think you've noticed at the start of the episode, because three hours of wrestling, as we've said, is too long.
[01:43:54] Speaker C: But yes, much like the commentators, we're. This is too much.
[01:43:58] Speaker A: Yes, I have jelly beans, but I don't have gummies, so.
[01:44:03] Speaker B: Well, maybe you can fix that for Saturday's Wrestle Dream coming up, which we will try and get together to talk about.
[01:44:11] Speaker A: Yeah.
[01:44:12] Speaker B: Afterwards. Like we did with the last pay per View over on Patreon.com MNFFPod welcome to New patron.
[01:44:21] Speaker C: There's a new Patron welcome?
[01:44:22] Speaker A: Oh, hell yeah. Also.

[01:44:27] Speaker B: Yes.

[01:44:35] Speaker C: Exorcist 3. Let's go. Okay. No use. Let me know when. Let me know when.
[01:44:40] Speaker A: We're definitely doing Day of the Dolphin. I'm sorry we can't watch something good for Scott Toberfest.
[01:44:46] Speaker B: Hey, hey, ladies, ladies. Quit fighting. What if we watched both of them?
[01:44:51] Speaker A: That's still. My vote is for the changeling. If we're watching horror.
[01:44:55] Speaker B: Hey, what if we watched all three of them? It's ScottToberfest.
[01:45:01] Speaker A: Yes.

[01:45:14] Speaker C: Holy hell yeah. So if.
[01:45:16] Speaker A: If.
[01:45:16] Speaker C: If like a thousand people want to join the Patreon so I can quit the mines and have time to watch all these movies on microphone.
[01:45:25] Speaker B: Hey, that would be cool.
[01:45:27] Speaker C: There you go.
