I mean, come on, fight for faithful, welcome to the Tuesday show where we have to talk about whatever the hell this was. Welcome to Sour Crafts in case you were familiar. This is your NXT post show for September 10th. Get into your Super Chet's, get in your Humper Chet's at HumperTets.com. We've got a lot to talk about tonight. There were things that, this was a loaded show that didn't do very much for the product. Like that's the only way I can kind of describe it. Like this, this was a loaded show that didn't really move things in the right direction from a booking standpoint, but lots to talk about. The Bloodline showed up, Jordan Grace's open challenge, Tony D's pay of people off to fight over FEMI. So get in your Super Chet's, get in your Humper Chet's, leave a thumbs up on this video. Boy, oh boy, there is so much happening at Fightful Select as well. We ask you to subscribe there if you can. Five dollars a month, get you all the scoops that you could ever want in the whole wide worlds about wrestling at least. So you should subscribe there. More about the Warner deal is on its way. If you're interested in TV rights stuff with AEW, I'd also encourage you to check out beyond the bell this morning, Andrew Zarian, with a ton of great perspective. But Fightful Select.com, plenty, plenty, plenty of all out information that went up there. Scoop Skalor, more contract news on the way. The news of Shayna Baszler reciting, a lot, a lot, a lot happening over at Fightful Select.com and you had us gushing for two hours about a really productive pay-per-view, it all out, which looks a little different than probably what we're going to do tonight, I would say. So it was like, sometimes we're like, oh, we have sauerkraps and it's not good and it's silly and it's wacky and it's crazy. This episode was actually kind of frustrating because there was so much going on from, like, they packed so much into it and they took the weirdest avenues possible. Yeah. Does that make sense? Yes. So somebody from TNA made their inauspicious debut tonight, but we were both looking forward to the possibility of getting him on the show, Hammerstone from TNA and in honor of Hammerstone and in dishonor of the way they booked him, we decided to do two versions of puns tonight. We did. For things you can find in a hardware store because Hammer and things you can find in a quarry because stone. So there you go. There it is. There it is. There's your puns, hardware store puns, Home Depot, Lowe's type of stuff, and also, you know, rocks. It also rocks, which might just have the rock, which is fine. That's beautiful. Yeah. So, Kate, here's a game we're going to have to play. I think more and more as long as HBK is in charge down here, what are they trying to achieve with blank story or blank debut or blank match or whatever? Like, trying to suss out what, here's the deal, it's hard to figure out what HBK wants to achieve because who the hell knows what that guy's thinking at any one time, but what a sane person in charge of booking a major cable, like wrestling program want to achieve with, for example, Julia's debut or debut match. We'll talk about that when we get to it, but I will be asking that question and you and I will try to determine what a sane person who is good at their job would be trying to do with fill in the blank. And then, after we've determined what that aim might be, we will then assess whether or not that end was realized by the booking they chose to do. I don't think they're going to score too well on this little test, so. Here we go with the first thing that happened. Oh, everybody's walking to the, to the, everyone is walking into the park, through the parking lot and Jada Parker is there with a, with a bat, there's been a parker is there with a bat and every time, every time somebody shows up, she's in a different spot in the parking lot still with the bat. She's obviously waiting for somebody and I thought to myself, oh, she's waiting for fatal influence to show up. And everybody is, every walks in, Jordan, Julia, Jordan Grace, Julia, Trik Williams, she's there all this way. And then, I don't know, 15 minutes later, we get a backstage segment where fatal influence is in the locker room. Did they, did they come in through the back door? Like, did they, did they take, did they take an Uber and have, can you drop us around off the side because we don't have to walk through the parking lot, because there's a lady there with a bat? Like, why would you have her, what is the, what is the, here we go, what is the aim of having Jada Parker sitting in the parking lot with a bat, what, what would, what would, I guess, what would be the next step if somebody who was smart, or not even smart, just had a brain, was writing the show, the next step would be, she would take somebody out in the parking lot. The people who she's waiting for show up, and then she attacks them with the bat, and then maybe the damned numbers game get the better of her, but she's going to swing a bat a few times. That never happens in this episode, which, which not only serves to make Jada Parker look like she staked out the wrong parking lot, but also because the other women seem to be entirely unaware of her plans to take them out in the parking lot, doesn't make them look smart or cagey, like, it's not like you can, you see film of them sneaking around the side of the building, they can see her, and they walk back the other way and go through a side door, they're not smart, so it's just a, it's just a thing you decided to do that had no payoff whatsoever. And again, I ask, what are we trying to do here? So what I liked about it was I thought that was a very clever thing to do, like, before the lack of payoff, right? This was-- That's the thing. That's the thing. Yeah, in hindsight, doesn't really matter if you did it or not. At the moment, I was like, this is going to be good, and guess what? It wasn't literally anything. It wasn't anything. It wasn't good or bad. It was just nothing. What they should have done, if they wanted to do this and not have her attack, anybody at the parking lot, would be you do this the week that everybody goes to CW, and she's just in the NXT parking lot, but it's like the NXT USA parking lot, and then she, everybody else is in Chicago, and she's like, you've got to be kidding me. That would have been great. I don't know if they'll do something next week, but it was very weird, and it's unfortunate because that was a pretty clever little storytelling thing that told no story, but that was a really-- I like that they have a creative initiative to play off of the fact that everybody's always getting peed up at the parking lot. The way she just kind of wears Waldo'd her way through it, too, should just be in one spot and then be in the other. I was excited for the payoff that we never got, which was very, very weird, good for Jayden Parker for thinking of those terms, but you should make sure that the person that you are trying to attack is going to be in the parking lot at some point. Yeah. Yes, you should. You should attempt. Jambeard's saying Kate putting her hair up to square up, I have a feeling she's going to be feisty tonight. Are you going to be feisty? I-- Well, wait, hold on. Feisty or pumpkin spicy? Eh? Eh? Eh? Yeah. Pumpkin spice. Eh? Eh? Yeah. Pumpkin spice. Eh? Um, put some respect on my hair. Um, I will be pure in my appearance, and I will fuse them with Alex's into some sort of collective. So. Oh. I wanted you to say it so bad, and I didn't think you were going to, and it was perfect. [laughter] I wanted to like, please tell me she's going to say put some respect on my hair. And then she did-- But then we're-- Yeah. That's-- That's how you do this shit. Um, my hair. Oh. We, we have synergy, because we are the best tag team. Restart. Oh. So my hair. Oh, boy. Um. So, um-- So, um-- Uncomfortably good at using dumb white girl voice. Like, it makes me nervous. Yeah. It makes me nervous that it's that close. [laughter] I didn't grow up in California. It shouldn't be that close. No. It's just, it's in us. It's in white girls. Listen. Now, listen, I don't want to cast any aspersions. Yes, you can. I feel like you've-- I feel like you've seen enough Instagram reels and TikToks to like just kind of like osmosis it in. What do you mean? Well, here's the thing. My sister and I, when we talk in the phone, occasionally we'll just talk like idiots. Or use a Kardashian impression. Uh-huh. And it's really embarrassing when you're in person and you're on the phone with her? Uh, yeah. Um, but we both got really good at that like vocal fry, California thing. Like I can do a pretty good Kardashian impression. So there you go. It's eerie. Honestly. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We watched the NXT tonight and it wasn't very good. It's like nails on a chalkboard. It's just, it's just, it's too easy. Alex, why are you even doing this to me? That is the same question. I asked HBK every week. I mean, I literally don't know why HBK would book it. Like this way. Ah. There you go. Okay. Um, it's okay. We heard last night that, um, the rascals due to conspicuous circumstances will not be able to compete tonight. Yeah, but it sucks. And I was like, uh, yeah, that does suck. And then I was like, um, instead of be street profits and I was like, oh, I can't wait for the beginning of the show since they say that that particular match versus the blurry boys. I will not be calling them Fraxiom because that is disgusting. They've been calling them that forever. No, no, no, no, that's a recent thing. They're literally calling them that in like publicity stuff, not like just on the, no, they're not Fraxiom. No, well, allow it. It's the case of that. They're the blurry boys. Well, yes. Of course. Anyway, the blurry boys versus the street profits, but that was supposed to kick off the show and I was waiting for them to be like, so we can tell you now what has happened with the rascals and how conspicuous the circumstances are. And there was no, they were just, they weren't. There was like, oops, all street profits. Like, what the hell are we doing with like, just tell us, no, no, they don't. The match was really fun, but oh, the whole time I was like, have a fricker, they got to screw this up. And the match was amazing and made me just want to see a full blown match with the street profits versus the blurry boys. And I didn't, for some reason, I mean, I don't know why I didn't come into my head that it was going to be. I mean, I thought. Cause who in the world thought they were going to send the bloodline to that? The bloodline. The performance. Yeah. Like, here's the bloodline. Now, these guys that like, this is the, like, just sure. Why not? Why not send Tomatanga and Tonga Loa and Jacob Fatu to the fucking performance center to be on screen for 12 seconds to attack the street profits and also the blurry boys. And a little, a little backstage thing that they did just, they said, by order of the tribal chief. That's why we're here. So, so Soko, I said, get on a plane and flight at Orlando to attack the street profits. You already pinned Montez Ford in the eight man last Friday. Like, it wasn't like they had to get revenge on somebody. It would just be just to be just like, well, we don't want to do a finish for street profits versus, versus fraxium. So hey, does anybody have the number for Jacob Fatu? Let's see if we can get him on a plane today, guys. Like, honestly, I don't, that most people live in Orlando, that most of the people live in Orlando. So like, okay. In WWE, most of them live in Orlando. So that's fine, I suppose. But it just doesn't make a whole lot, like, you know, a whole lot of sense, but it just, it just makes me upset because I wanted to see what you would do, how you would, I mean, the blurry boys picking up a victory over street profits would be huge for them. But like, no, we can't have that because we got to protect the street profits for the first time in two years. Those guys take pinfalls all the time. Yeah, this was one of the things that bothered me a little less because it, a few things. One, and I have more forgiveness around this video. Like if I'm there live, if I'm someone that goes to the performance every week and I'm expecting like Andre Chase and the bloodline shows up, that's fucking cool. That is like the equivalent of someone on a major television show showing up 10 in my opinion. But that's a cool thing from an audience member perspective and I think it's cool when wrestling programs do cool shit. The other thing is like knowing that they were handcuffed, I don't like that they went out of their way to say those circumstances and that didn't say what those circumstances were, especially because like, this is not, then they hinted at it much later in the broadcast when Wesley just shows up and takes Vic Joseph's headset and says, Zach, you know exactly why Trey McGell is not clear to Wrestle Knights because I did something to him. This is always going to be about you and me. So you versus me, you versus me on the CW first show in Chicago and I'm like, you got to start booking stuff for the CW second show in St. Louis because there's a lot of shit going on on that. Anyway, so we figure out much later that Wesley took out Trey McGell in storyline and that's why they weren't able to wrestle. But you could have been more specific that there was an injury to Trey McGell and that's why they couldn't have the match as opposed to conspicuous circumstances. Were they abducted by aliens in public? Is that why it was so conspicuous? Honestly, right now with COVID surging so much and wrestlers getting COVID again, right? Like when you give kayfabe reasons, my head, this is just me. This is purely a makeup up. My head goes to like, I hope the actual person is okay, whether it's an injury, whether it's COVID or whatever. So like, I get that they're doing their job, but it does, my head always goes to where are they for real though? Because you planned that, so I actually didn't mind this creative as much because the street profits were going to come here and put on a great match with them. I do not like the ending because of we were getting something really cool. I do get wanting like the blurry boys are a real deal tag team. So it's not like this isn't no offense to chase you. It's not their fault. The booking was so handcuffing on their title runs. But this isn't like if the street profits we're going to lose to Andre Chase and Ridge. You know what I mean? This is a real deal team, but I also get like if you're trying to make them feel important on the main roster, then taking a loss here doesn't quite work either. Like it doesn't feel like they're in content or shit. I always expected there to be something, but I think that a cyclo points out if they were going to have the rascals versus blurry boys, Wesley shows up during the match. And on camera writes off Trey Miguel by attacking him and then says later in an interview, Zach, it's always been about you and me. So like they just did it off camera. You know what I mean? So whatever. Ryan Shikiti says feels like they're a main roster bound soon of the blurry boys. And like I don't know about soon, but eventually I hope they go as a team. I think they work really well together. WWE doesn't have any any teams like this. Of course, they'll just be fodder for whatever terrible booking of the tag division there is. Well, Raw really needs the help. Like from a work great perspective, as far as tag teams go because Imperium is not a thing anymore. DIY is on Smackdown. Like there's a lot of serious real deal teams on Smackdown and Raw could use a shot in the arm. But like we were talking about the creeds are too good not to strap up, right? Like give me the creeds versus these guys any day of the week. I do have a feeling they're going to move as an act because they were teasing a breakup so heavily. And I think they were like, nah, you guys kind of hoop together. Let's keep you together because that story was headed toward a split and then it wasn't. So my guess is they're probably being scoped out for that, but they're fantastic. The street profits were so much fun with them. I loved the chemistry that we got. I get your complaints about the ending and I share similar thoughts on that too. But at least for all the F finishes that we get in NXT, this one kind of made more sense than a lot of them, especially given the circumstances. I continue to be like if I have Montez Ford on my roster, I would simply choose to make a million dollars. I don't know why they don't do that. He's unreal and they're wasting his best years in real time and it's painful to see. >> I was calling for his major push years ago at this point and I understand why we're not doing it at this point. I like Dawkins. He's actually improved quite a lot. You can figure out a different way to use Dawkins if you're going to, because Ford has a special quality to him. Okay, so here's our first major instance of this game. What do you think, again, not HBK, what a smart person who's in charge of this roster. Would be trying to accomplish with the debut of Julia, her debut match in NXT. >> To make her look like an F in BA. >> Mm, I agree. I think they should, I would think that a smart person would be wanting Julia to look like, would want Roxanne for the first time, because she's very, very confident in all of her matches going into the men coming out of them. For the first time to have Roxanne go, oh crap, because that's, she needs that kind of thing for her reign. I would think, and I would think that in order to achieve that, you would book Julia to be as strong as possible, to look like an absolute BA, as you called her, in her first match, regardless of who her opponent is. And instead, Chelsea Green got in 96% of the offense, and Julia sold for the entire time. And then one with a knee, and her driver thing, I don't know what she calls it, it's like an emerald fusion, a floating type thing. But she won, and good, but she was fighting from underneath the whole time. I can't think of a worse way to debut Julia. Now I love Chelsea Green, and if this was not Julia's debut match, having Chelsea Green get in a whole bunch of offense on Julia would be a great idea. But it is Julia's debut match, and you have to introduce her to all the fans who absolutely have no fucking clue who she is, by proving that she is an absolute force to be reckoned with in NXT, and on the main roster. And they did fucking none of that with this booking. >> Yeah, I was, so let me say this somewhat carefully, like Chelsea Green is an invaluable performer, and way underrated for her invulnerability. >> I would not have put her in this spot, because of what is required from this spot. But she is, her character kind of warrants her being in this spot a little bit. They have made her, she has overcome it quite a bit, but they have made her kind of a joke. She's 50/50 split at best. She's going to sell her ass off for somebody in this spot, facial expressions wise, in ring wise, and there's no harm in getting her ass kicked by Julia, cuz she's going to be an absolute superstar moving forward. So I think Chelsea's kind of good for the spot if this match is basically reversed. I don't know why Chelsea was getting in so much offense. It should have, it felt like they took a bunch of time from what would have been hammerstone to Novafebi, and tacked it onto this for some reason. This one on too long, and it goes to their inability of trying to present a baby face as anything but fighting from underneath. They really, really struggle with that. They really do. They have an obsession with it, I don't understand. Like when they realized Ria was gonna be a baby face in Australia, the first thing that they did was like lay out the storyboard to get to Nia Jax, so that she could be fighting from underneath, cuz someone bigger than her would be in control of the match. So she would have to be fighting back the whole time. They are obsessed with that, and unfortunately that didn't read super well, and I felt like the crowd, they were like hot for it kind of, but I don't think they popped in the way that they should have for like Julia's debut, because it was far too even in Chelsea's favor for too much of this match. Like if I'm seeing someone for the first time, I didn't get to be like, oh I get all the hype because of what I saw that person do. I saw her with one really really nasty knee, but like other than her incredible presence and how hard she does lay stuff in when she lays it in, if I'm new and I don't know Julia, I don't know if I get outside of how cool she looks and is, like what is so special about this woman, who they've been hyping up for at this point months, right? This feels to me like a lot of what they did with Joe Hendry during his time there. I mean, I'm sure he's going to come back at some point, but Joe Hendry's run was like, well, I know you want me to think this guy's special, but you're not presenting him as anything special, you know what I mean? Like they just tell us he is, and you and I watched two different matches. Chelsea was in control for most of the match. I don't want to see that from Julia's debut. I want to see Julia wreck somebody and then, and then like, and Roxanne like have to deal with knowing that Julia rocks people like that's what I just I watched Chelsea in control. It was just also really long, like this should have been six minutes of Julia kicking ass and Chelsea cleverly escaping for most of it and then ending like it just went on so long. I was very, I was surprised by the match length and then more. Passion drive and patience.

Prize right this match length when we saw what we didn't get from Obafemi and Hammerstone. Right, right, right. I mean, and pieces saying is someone that wanted to see how Julia would look at NXT. This was far better for me than a two minute squash. I can't be sour on this, look good. I don't want to see your cell. You know what's, unless she's in a pay-per-view match against her equal and they're throwing bombs at each other for 20 minutes, I don't want to see your cell in her debut match. Like, I don't want to see her being like, oh my God, that move from Chelsea Green really hurt. Like, I don't want to see her do that. I want to see her kill somebody. That's what you want. We've also like, even who Chelsea Green is in NXT, right, she challenged it out of nowhere for the title and lost. Like, I want to see Julia's cell. I don't want to see Julia's selling here. I don't want to be smart as a fan watching this match. I want to see Julia kick someone's ass. I don't want to be like, what a well-rounded wrestler who's good on the other side of this, not in a debut, not for me, but I'm glad that you enjoyed it. I'm glad that other people enjoyed it. It just wasn't what I was expecting at all from somebody's debut. Ryan Chiquinis is all good if you disagree. They crushed the Julia debut. Good video of her accolades. Happy it wasn't a squashed. T's future match up, promo in English strong. The promo in English was good, but she talked, like, she talked to Roxanne as though she was somebody who had squashed her opponent tonight. And she did not. She took a lot of offense and hit a knee and then hit the Northern Lights bomb. I think what it was like... I think they were trying to make it seem like that move is like, if she hits it, you're screwed, right? Like, it's supposed to be one of those of like... But the first thing they did at Ethan Page's debut for the title was ruin the ego's, not ruin the ego's edge. It wasn't protected immediately, it was the first thing they told us. So like, she looked good in what she did hit. And I think if they want to make you feel like that ending combination is lethal. They did accomplish that. But it was just... It was weird. It was weird how long it was and how much Chelsea was in control. Yeah. Meet Norma's saying, "Find a woman who can work stiff and let Julia destroy her. They can't let her look too strong because she's not a PC NIL trainee. It's poopy and makes me sad, please excuse my language." How dare you? And then listen, nobody on this show ever uses swear words. No, especially not the P.D.O.P.Y. one. Yeah. Luis says Carmen Petrovitch, somebody like that. Sure. Dell's just coming in. I mean, they'll probably stay away from each other for a while, but like... They're not going to do that now, but like, that would be a really great match. But I don't like... Delta comes in, I don't want to see yourself or somebody from the main roster who loses most of the time. I want to see Delta murder somebody. I don't know. Like, it's just weird. Delta almost has to have that booking based on if you're continuing with the presentation from Australia and they want her to be the next up to Rio Ripley, they have to. Julia, there's a little bit more give and take. I think Lola Vice would be an awesome opponent for Julia. I think that could be great. Do that. I think that it's WWE and they want her to work the way that they work. And I cry a little bit on the inside every time. Somebody comes in from somewhere else and they say, "You must do things the way we do them here." Like, shouldn't they be special? Like isn't the reason that you noticed them and wanted to sign them because they were special and they do things differently than everybody else does. And so if you're going to present them as a major force in your company, shouldn't they do things differently than everybody else does? But that's not usually what they do. There's probably a middle ground there. It's just a matter of if they'll strike it. Like acclimating to how WWE moves about things, but still maintaining like what's special about Julia. And that can be accomplished, just a matter of if they will. Ava is talking to Julia through an interpreter who is Funaki, but apparently she speaks fine. She speaks very good English and says so to Roxanne. And Roxanne's like, "You see Roxanne's like, 'Oh, isn't this great, the way you presented her?' Sure. I saw at the red carpet, I didn't share whatever." And Julia says, "I understand, Roxanne, you're scared and you should be." Not after that match. I'm sorry, it's not after that match. It wasn't like it was a long match and Chelsea Green and you were 50/50 and then there was a finishing stretch where you just took over and beat her down and then pinned her. You got in two moves at the end and one. You can't write that promo exchange between Julia and Roxanne and have present that after the match that you booked. They don't work together. They want us to think that those last two moves that got hit, the more we're talking about this, the more I get what they're going for, that's all it takes. If you get hit without your screwed is what they want us to think. It is, again, the formula for babyface versus heel stuff in WWE. The babyfaces almost always have a one-hit or quitter that you can beat the hell out of them for 20 minutes, but if they catch you with something, you're done and the heels have all kinds of sustained offense where they just beat on you and beat on you and beat on you. But if you hit them with one thing, they have a glass jaw and they're done and that's boring. It's a boring way to wrestle every single match. I'm sorry, it is to me. It also, I don't have a problem with that story. I have a problem with that story. If you use it too much, it dilutes everybody's finishers. Like if you want to do that story, someone's got to have a really badass finisher. If you do that with everybody's finisher, it doesn't matter what the move is, so that's a bummer. I have a question for you, Alex. Yes. Do you think Julie is going to beat Roxanne? I would bet my house on it. That is a confident bet. And instead of, I respect that, but maybe instead of betting your house on it, you can still bet money on it, just maybe not your whole house's value. I mean, I'll take out a third mortgage. It's fine. Well, you do you, but go to bed online, A.G. to do. I want to talk to you guys about our great partner at Bed Online, A.G. Yes, the place that lets you bet on pro wrestling. We've gotten our pro wrestling betting odds from them for years well before we even worked with them. And we're going to tell you a little bit more about them. They've got the earliest lines, the fastest payout, the industry best bonuses. They've been trusted for 25 plus years because of their safe and secure environment and their quick payouts. But you can bet on pro wrestling. How cool is that? If you think you know more than anybody, go ahead and look at those odds. It's the same ones you've seen on Fightful for years. You might see one that sticks out to you and you go, wait a second. There's no way that person's going to win. Why are they an underdog? Make yourself some money. Bed Online, A.G. and hey, it doesn't stop there. Whatever sports you want, they got you covered. Popular games like Blackjack and Roulette, Supernova, Skyward, all that stuff, Bed Online, A.G. Please bet responsibly and only bet what you can at Bed Online, A.G. What? Oh, Alpha Bill, yes, I did play along with the segway, isn't that nice? You even played along with the music of Bed Online? I did. I did. I did do that. I did. Taylor Cannon says, "Hey, Alex and Kate, I just want to say I really like your hair Kate and you both are big reasons. I've been a member for 37 months." Taylor, you're the best. That's a one month over three years. You're good at the math thing, Alex, I've got to say, I'm very, very impressed. Taylor is always just great, Taylor is always in the chat being like, "You're awesome and I support you." I'm like, "Taylor, you're awesome and I support you. He's awesome. I love Taylor." You know, three years and one month basically is as long as you've been around. So Taylor was like, "I like that now, I'm a subscriber." I'll take it. I'll take all the credit, all the credit you want to give me. Lexus King is at a barber getting his beard done and honestly, he should be at a local fair at the face painting stall because there's no way any of that is real, none of that is actual hair, not a stitch of it. He should have it. If you, here, I'll do an NXT promo about it already. Okay, good, good. Thing, if you have the balls, you should get a tattooed on your face like that. Otherwise, you're a little bitch. Thank you. He says, "Put some respect on my special hair." That's good. You did it better than I did. He shows off a reel made by one of his burners because there's nobody who actually is a fan of his that shows, that shows, that's true, that shows off his highlights, one of his highlights being putting his foot on the ropes to her leverage pin because that is one of his highlights and he's like, "Oromensa, you suck," and thenromensa shows up and beats him up in his barber, so we're going to get another one of those matches. I feel like this is a slightly different barbershop than where the Trig and Mellow stuff took place. It's definitely different. It's definitely different. It's definitely different. It's a definitely a different barbershop. That is for sure. Oromensa, we need to have a little talk with Oromensa. I respect your fighting spirit, but there is a time and a place. You shouldn't be rolling a beat and page outside of matches all the time and you shouldn't really be attacking people in barbershops that's more like assaults than wrestling. I just think, I love the tenacity, love the passion, it's right it in, put it between the ropes all day. Just a touch. Just a touch. It's a teenage. Paul Hensler, your father, says, "Congreetings, greetings to our SES crew, to the beard, the sisters, the council, Lieutenant Colonel Foto, our super mod, Team CaitleX and Jedi Master JW Pringle, everything else sucks." Sure does tonight, Paul. It sure does tonight. Not my hair, my hair is great. But no, he mentions you as not sucking. Fatal influence, again, having snuck into the locker room by some back door somewhere. Maybe they opened the jibby to open a window from the outside or something? They came through the chimney. Yeah, they did. They set up a ladder and they climbed up and then they went down the chimney. That's how they got in without alerting Jada Parker. They took Randir, idiot. So Connie's like, "I'd answer Jordan Grace's challenge, but I've got this NXT North American Championship, so I'm good." And everyone else, all of the other women are in their gear and they're all warming up low-level vices shadowboxing. And there's one woman who's conspicuously not in this scene. But the old people who aren't in their gear are fatal influence. And they're like, "Oh, wow, get a take on the jig or not, yeah, we'll see how that goes." And Lola Weiss is like, "You talk a big game. Why wouldn't the leaders of the locker room try and take her on?" Who do you think you are? I know, right? I don't think you can say I know right to who do you think, but I mean, whatever. And Lola's like, "I don't like you," and J.C. Jan's, "I don't like you either." And they get into a brawl backstage. And then later, Jada Parker shows up and she's like, "Hey, you seem to feel influence? Not for a while." They ran off after I stepped to them, says Lola Weiss. And he's like, "Well, you see him, tell him I'm looking for him. Hey, look, I saw what happened last week. I'm no fan of theirs. I think we should team up and take them on." And Jada Parker's like, "I'm not looking for a teammate. I'm looking for them to beat them up." And Lola's like, "Oh, I'm saying is I'm a baby face now and you're a baby face now." And I feel like that's enough for us to be friends. And Jada Parker's like, "I'm not there yet." I'm still turning face. I'm still turning face. I am still tweener. You are a baby face, but I took longer to turn. You were a heel for the longest time. You, yes, you shook your ass, but you did it as a badass. And then you told a story about your mother and you cried on TV. And now you're everybody's friend. I have not reached that point in my growth just yet. So next week, Lola Weiss will take on J.C. Jane by herself. And I wonder if Jada Parker will come out to help save her when the damned numbers game gets the best of Lola Weiss. Hold on. Will that exact scenario I described happen? It is decidedly so. Yeah. Thank you, Magic G-Ball. That is correct. That is good developmental for the main roster because that is exactly how things go up on there. So that's actually a duo I'd be very interested in if they can make it work right. Like Jada Parker and Lola Weiss. I just wish it was like a tweener or heel duo more than a proper baby duo. Me too. Me too. Like basically like, listen, I honestly don't give a damn about any of these girls in here, but this is my locker room too. And I won't have you walking around here like you own the place. That's what Lola Weiss and Jada Parker should be. Yeah. Like, I have a problem with you. I'm not sticking up for all these girls. They can go screw. I don't like you. Asserting yourself as though you run the joint because you don't. That's what these girls are all my friends as of five minutes ago and I will defend their honor to the death. You know what I will say I'm very impressed by, but they're loyal. They're loyal. Like if I decide I like you from like a shade of liking you, I will literally fight people down for you. I could use people in my life like that. Why not? Yeah. Yeah. That could be a really fun duo though. I'm willing to give that some breathing group. It is just going to be very predictable because the way they do multi-made and multi-woman matches are very predictable. And again, set it before I'll say it again. Like kind of sucks that we don't have tag titles around that XT, don't it? Yeah, it does. There's so many like- Well, however, speaking of which, apparently in a totally impromptu, not at all staged back and forth between Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill and Shawn Michaels, they've decided that Bianca Belair and Jade Cargill are going to show up in Chicago on the first ever CW show just in time for a newly formed tag team of Jada Parker and Lola Weiss to maybe get a tag title shot. Maybe Bianca, come back to NXT will be special, like I think that'll be very, very cool. It will for sure. Sure. And hey, I'm glad they're being defended this more than we could say about them for most of their existence. Yes. Yes. Take that. Yes. That is true. That's a lot of black excellence again. That's awesome. Very cool. So Charlie Dempsey defeated Javon Evans. Javon Evans comes out wearing a backpack for some reason. He's never worn a backpack to the ring before. The power of Orange Cassidy? But like, Orange Cassidy wore the Jansport like forever, even when he didn't have the- Like he wore the Jansport because he was carrying a championship belt in it. And it was cute. Like that was a fun way for his character to bring the belt to the ring. Javon Evans doesn't have anything in there. I would, I again, I would bet my house, I'll take out a fourth mortgage. I'm like, stop taking out mortgages and I'll do yours like NXT. I'll take out a fourth mortgage and bet it on the fact that there was nothing in that backpack. Is there a bit of can of paint in there? He could be hanging out with packaging? I don't think so. I don't think so. It was a, it was a, it was a kid's backpack. It was, it was a, it was a child's backpack that he was wearing. I know Javon Evans is young, but he's not still in high school. What, what is the, what is the purpose? That's so adorable. But it wasn't, no, no, no. It was a full sized backpack. When I say child's backpack, I think it was a SpongeBob Squarepants backpack. It was bright yellow with a bunch of other colors on it. I don't understand why he's bringing the backpack to the ring. I don't know. I mean, I'm willing to see if he had anything in it, and future episodes. He didn't today. He didn't today. I mean, I don't know. He didn't today, but maybe he will next re-to fight off TV on heights. There was it water in it. Maybe there was a different substance in it. Anyway, it is not the backpack Jericho stole last week, not a Jansport backpack, Luis. It was something other than that. Anyway, it doesn't matter about the backpack, ultimately, other than the fourth mortgage I took out to battle on the fact that there was nothing in it. It kind of feels like it matters when you frame it. Other than that, it doesn't matter because... Cedric Alexander comes out there as his second, and Charlie Dempsey, and he have a very good back and forth match, and like, eventually, are we going to put the tag team, the Heritage Cup, on a guy who's, listen, I love Tony D, but a guy who feels like he belongs in the Heritage Cup division. Sure, who also doesn't have people cheat to win matches, where, if you cheat, it's an immediate disqualification. Because we had no MDAR doing that for a long-ass time on this particular program. And then, now we have Charlie Dempsey, who's got guys at ringside, and just blatantly won via cheating TV on heights. And like, TV on heights shows up out of nowhere and does a huge belly to belly, to Yvonne Evans on the outside, rolls him in, and Charlie Dempsey pins him without doing another move to Yvonne Evans. And I'm sorry, that's a stupid way to book an Heritage Cup championship match. It's just dumb. You could figure out a way, have, have, have, have, have TV on heights show up and do that. Have, have Cedric Alexander and Miles born, drawing at each other on the outside, and TV on heights come up and do that exact move to Cedric Alexander, which is enough to get Yvonne Evans distracted, and then he walks into a move from Charlie Dempsey. So Charlie Dempsey actually wins the match, and Yvonne Evans, because he's young, he still has a backpack, he is young enough to be inexperienced enough to get distracted when he shouldn't be, and, and at least you wouldn't have Charlie Dempsey win a match via nothing he actually did himself. So awesome that TV on heights got to do that, and one, that rules, he looked really impressive in the, the things that I saw from it, glad he's back at NXT, hopefully they saw that and took something away from it. I feel like their booking of the Heritage Cup is inherently at odds with the intention of the Heritage Cup. >> It feels to me, and it felt like an NXT UK. >> Hold on, Cedric, you are not incorrect in assuming this to the Heritage Cup, it's supposed to be- >> Yeah, that's, that's a thing. >> It's, it's, I, I'm a peer championship sicko, so. >> You are, you are. >> I love the peer title, I really, so I really like a title or a cop or device in a wrestling program that has specific rules, we've, we've been over this as a group, but there's a lot more people watching tonight than usual. So I'll just explain. I'm a, I'm a nerd, I'm a groove, I'm a square, I like rules. And I, when you have something like this, it really breaks up the rest of your show because it's, it's specialized and it doesn't, it feels kind of mid-cardish, but it doesn't just feel like another title in the mid-card, it feels like it's its own special thing and that it is leaning in the direction of work rate excellence. That's how the peer title feels, that's how the Heritage Cup title, I assumed, was supposed to feel. And Noam Dar was like the perfect guy to have it in the beginning of that, if you were going to treat it that way. But so much of the story with him became about the metaphor, Tony D, ironically, with the mob family had some of the cleaner matches with it, I feel like. Now we're back here again, and I feel like of anybody, Charlie Dempsey, should be having clean matches with this. And also if somebody's going to interfere, I get that TV on Heights return today, but like Ren St. Clair should be the one messing stuff up because this is her entire character arc. But if you're going to do that kind of stuff, just do it, not with the Heritage Cup, right? Like you can make a story out of that without the Heritage Cup, but like the, the way that there's rounds to it, there's time limits, there's rules with it. Like that stuff should add prestige to it. And when you constantly do overbooking, it takes what's special about it way and on top of that, I expected TV on Heights to come back here in this way because they've done this so much. If they didn't do this constantly, I wouldn't like it. But TV on Heights coming back here, I'd be like, Oh, cool. TV on Heights is back or whatever, like it would feel different, but I expected it because they always do this with the Heritage Cup. So that's kind of a bummer for me because I am a nerd and I like rules. Put some respect on the Raw.

This is very good, very good. Keep them suckers coming. Ridge Holland fought Duke Hudson, Duke Hudson cut a promo while holding his beloved broken trophy while walking to the ring, and then just got the break speed off him by Ridge Holland. >> I'm sorry, this is what Julia should have done to literally anybody she was facing tonight. She should have done this to them. >> Maybe not the end with like, you know, the destruction of the ringside area or whatever, but beating the breaks off of them. So, I thought Duke was going to put up more of a fight, your boy Dookie, wrestled like Dookie tonight, was booked like Dookie. >> Yeah, this should have, if I were booking it, assuming everybody in this table was healthy, I would have put Riley in this spot, and because Duke has so much size and, and like, if this is the story we're telling, that we're just going to go through them to get back to Andre Chase. I would have had Riley. >> I don't know if that's the story they're telling, because they decided to have Riley get a kayfabe injury in the middle of the match for no reason. >> Yeah, that was weird, unless he's actually injured, I don't know what that was. >> I mean, if you get actually injured, you don't crumble to one knee and scream and your partner at ringside doesn't run over to check on you, like you try and pull off. >> Well, I'm not actually injured in that spot, like if there's a different reason you can't, yeah, like they did the kayfabe injury to, yeah, if he needs time off or anything. >> Certainly possible. He was fine walking out to the ring, and then, you know, got basically, Duke got thrown at his legs, and apparently he heard his ankle or something, is what the kayfabe injury looks like. >> I don't like this for Duke, this is probably what they should be doing with Ridge. Like it might have been so that he couldn't help Duke after the match. But if you're gonna have him suffer an injury, have Ridge, have Ridge be being the hell out of Duke, and Riley comes to try and stop him, and he picks up Riley and power bombs him through something at ringside. And then he can't help him as he takes out Duke, like as opposed to I threw the guy I'm having the match with, he rolled and hit your ankle and now you can't help him when I beat him up later, doesn't it make Ridge look like more of a badass if like I'm beating up your friend, you tried to stop me and I'm gonna beat you up too. Like I think it honestly serves the purpose, which appears to be, to make Ridge look like an absolute world beater. The problem I have with this is that I have no idea how they think I'm supposed to believe that Andre Chase is gonna take this guy out. You know what I mean? >> I really, truly, madly, deeply think that because Riley's young too, right, he's the youngest student next to Mia, he was in the breakout tournament, like he's genuinely young on the program. If you were gonna do an injury angle, just have him get his ass kicked by him first. I think they might be trying to say like maybe Duke and Riley have tension now because Duke was the one that actually kind of injured him or something, but that's a really, really big stretch with the way that they did this. But I would have had Riley get like chewed up and spit out and then I would have had Duke, his friend coming out to help him in another match, fighting on his behalf with his trophy and whatever. We got the West Wing Walk-and-Talk shot for that. The production really has picked up, we're gonna talk about that with Rosemary in a minute. This is what they should be doing with Ridge, but like Duke is the one with the highest ceiling as far as in Ringo's and by far the most ties. He's not the leader, so he can't be the last guy, but that makes this tough, that makes this a little bit tougher, but we'll see, I mean this is, it hasn't been a great story, but this is where they wanted to get to with Ridge I guess, so that makes sense. But Duke, I love Duke, I love Duke so much. We saw him like put up a huge fight to Oba Femi, you know what I mean? He should have gotten more in this, he should have gotten more in this. Because Ridge Holland is so much more intimidating than Double Femi, I guess. Nobody in the world is more intimidating. I know, but that's how they book them. Duke Hudson gets thrown into the barricade and the barricade comes apart and then Ridge picks it up and Thea tries to get him to stop, then he does barge, he goes, "Oh no!" And then he picks up the barricade and he hits the part of the barricade that came off and he throws it at Duke or whatever. And when it flips over you can see that the other side of it is plastic, which I wouldn't say that except for last night. And they had a spot where Rowan took part of the barricade apart and was hitting dudes with it. And it was steel on the other side so a way more heavy and would hurt way more when you hit somebody with it. And it's just so funny that they just booked the exact same basic spot one night after the other one and the second one is way less impressive than the first one. I just don't know why you do that and also then he lays it down padding side up, not hard plastic side up. And then he does the rampage, the redeemer, the rampage to Duke Hudson onto some padding. It's not like it's really soft padding. It's not like when Lexus King rolled up the thing and then did it on a mattress. It is a little twisty deal. Or Jericho jumps off the top of the cage on. It's not quite trampoline, but if he had flipped it over and did it onto the plastic, he also saw somebody take a DDT onto the concrete later tonight. Who is agenting this stuff? I'm always like the props department should find a way to make safe things look dangerous. Like that should be their goal. I am all for doing things more safely. I can forgive something looking worse if it means doing it more safely. But to your point, there's a very big disparity between those two things that we saw today. Well, like, like, the thing with like, they're the same spot. You know, I mean, the concrete, the concrete versus yeah, sure, but like, they're the same spot. The guy on the outside takes a DDT onto what is ostensibly something hard. Right. Yeah. And one person takes a DDT onto concrete and the other person takes a DDT onto padding on top of some plastic. Yeah. And like, you got to talk to each other and figure out what one of us can't do this. Like I don't know what you can do, like, like have him do the same thing, but like onto the announce table. Don't do the same, don't do two of the exact same big impact spots in one night. It's just not that hard. Yeah. And it's not our job to figure out what the alternative is. It's theirs. Yeah. So, um, so, hey, remember how last week I pitched this idea that Tony D could pay off somebody to take out Obafemi? Yes. Uh, and then last night they released a little anonymous thing where Tony D is talking to somebody and you can't see who that person is because of like frosted glass, but you can see Tony D talking to him. Yeah. So you've got a bit of a reputation. I want you to take out Oba, he disrespected Big Anch because I, this version of Tony D will not say the fake name that they gave her. Her name is Big Anch. There's a little bit extra in here for you. Get the job done. We don't know who it is. We assume somebody from TNA maybe, you and I were hoping like, oh my God, wouldn't it be awesome? It was a hammer stone. That would be great. What a great match. That would be. Yep. And, uh, and HBK was like, uh, I got you covered. It is going to be hammer stone, but the match is going to be really short. And, uh, also, Oba's just going to manhandle him for most of the match and that's going to be it. So here's my deal. If somebody was smart, what would they want to accomplish with this kind of booking, this chapter of the story? They would want, uh, to make Tony D's look smart enough to hire somebody that could put up a real fight against Oba before inevitably. Tony D has his match with Oba so that he'd have his ass beat and he'd be facing a compromised version of Oba Fermi. Classic wrestling trope. Take him out. Get the job done. Yes. There's a match. Not win the match. Take him out. Take him out. So hey, I think you got to figure out a way to book this as a note, as an ODQ match. And, and, and even if you don't, there's some stuff you can do and get away with like wrapping his leg around the ring post and doing one of those things, just doing that over and over again to what, what, listen, I know I often say I want to see people who were at full strength fight each other. And I do want to see full strength, Amherstone and Oba fight each other, but I feel like according to them, I just got that. So here's what instead they could have done is they could have had Hammerstone be actually good at this because like your reputation precedes you. And by that, I mean you suck at this because he lost to Oba Fermi in five and a half minutes. He lost Oba Fermi in half the time that Otis lost Oba Fermi. He would have been better going to the main roster and giving that big fat sack of cash to Otis than Hammerstone, who comes out looking as, as Leponky Vice says, if Shane Douglas and Brian Cage had a big muscle baby, it'd be Alex Hammerstone. Like he looks a tremendous, he looks like he's chiseled out of granite. And with some notable exceptions, Oba Fermi ran through him. Now I love Oba Fermi, but that's not the story you're telling. Your story you're telling is that Tony D found a ringer that he paid money to, to take out Oba. So he shouldn't even be trying to like lock up with him. He should be trying to take out his knees. He should be trying to do whatever he possibly can to take him out because that's the job he was paid to do. And it should, probably if he does lose, take longer than five minutes for him to take, to get it in. Like, I honestly, I don't know why you would book this particular guy in this particular match for this particular story. I, okay, so let's start with this. For those of you who didn't know who Alex Hammerstone was until tonight, little background on him, he is a phenomenal wrestler. He really is, he has the incredible look you saw tonight, but he can also like, Bissell Drop kick you out of nowhere. He can do a bunch of stuff from the top rope, like he is incredibly agile for his presentation and his size. Brian Cage is probably a good shout because Brian Cage can do like weird stuff that Cruiser Reads can do that he shouldn't be able to do, similar, similar in that regard. He was in MLW, he was in the faction Dynasty with MJF and Richard Holiday, he's now in TNA, doing really good work there, so there you go. I said he's like if Hulk Hogan was really good at Jack, that's kind of what you can get from an Alex Hammerstone in my opinion. So that's that part of it. He was also the first wrestler to ever follow me back on Twitter, by the way, no big deal. So I feel like where they screwed up was they want to make sure Obafemi is as protected as possible and today they went too far. Like they, he got like three or four shots in that I can kind of like recall off the top of my head and they didn't do enough damage and Obafemi can sell, like he really can, and if the whole thing is like I paid this guy to be a ringer, if I was Tony D, I'd be asking for my money back, like he didn't inflict any damage on him. The next time we see Hammerstone, it should be Tony D beating the hell out of him. Yes. You know what I mean? Yeah. Where's my money? You did not, you did not do the thing I hired you to do. You didn't even attempt to. Like one thing, if you, if he lost the match, but Oba came out of it, the worst for wear. Like Oba is on one wheel now because he got, he got shot blocked a bunch of times by Alex Hammerstone, who then picked him up and dropped him on his dome a few times. But Obafemi won the match, but will, will he win the war against Tony D and the answer to that question, which I think is what the whole thing is here? The answer to that question is of course he will, because like he ran through his hired gun in no time at all, it took him only a minute longer to beat Hammerstone than it took him to beat Stax last week. And the other thing that's kind of a shape of it is you also have Alex Hammerstone and he can do stuff with Obafemi that not all guys can and they didn't let him showcase that. That's the part that like from a non-story perspective kind of bummed me out was like Alex Hammerstone can do things other guys can't do to this guy. And we didn't really get to see that showcase. It was very weird to me that Chelsea and Julia went this long, went as long as it did and this only went the five minutes. Like something felt very, very off about that. And it's a bummer because I feel like both stories would have emerged better if Chelsea and Julia were shorter and this had some more length to it and Hammerstone got some more offensive. So in both situations, it feels like the in ring told a different story than the build that we were given and what we'll get coming out of it. And the what will get coming out of it is even more bad thing because the vehicle used to progress the story told to something else. So that's frustrating. I wouldn't be surprised to Tony D hires another couple guys. I wouldn't be surprised if one of them was Moose. Hammerstone should have been the one at the end of the line. Like you can't convince me that 50 year old Moose is gonna like, no, but Moose is a former world champion in DNA and they will treat him as such. Hammerstone's not. So they won't. So they didn't. But he's not supposed to be a champion who's out wrestling, Oba Femi, he's supposed to take him out, get the job done and they didn't even have him attempt it. The first thing he should do is try to dive for the knee and all of a sudden Oba's on one leg doing like Oba, like trying to work through a knee injury for the first time in his career is something really interesting to me. That's so cool. Yeah. But like, but it's not, it was just, it was, it was in August, Oba Femi was on an episode of main event. He wrestled Dante Chen. Dante Chen lost longer in that match than Hammerstone lasted tonight. I don't know why you even bring Hammerstone in if this is what you're gonna do with him. You could have, you could have found some, you could have found some big dude that we don't know. You know, as a guy, he's just a guy, again, I don't know what a frick he is right now if he's injured or whatever, but there's a dude we saw in the same breakout tournament that Oba Femi won called Keanu Carver, who's a big, like, strapping dude. And if you want to like hire a dude to take him out who then fails miserably, have it be one of the NIL kids who's never on TV anyway, who looks big and intimidating, but Oba eats that dude for breakfast, and then the second guy you hire is Hammerstone who actually is able to do some damage, but, you know, whatever. Oh, so meet Norma says, "Hello, bros, Hammerstone versus Oba was all kinds of meaty." It was, it was too small of a portion, you know? Yeah, no, it was, it was like, when you, when you go to the steakhouse and you get the six ounce, and you're like, "I really should have gotten the 12 ounce." You know what I mean? I actually was hungry. I suppose I'll think about puns too, and then he has some for us later. Kate is the best, Kate number one, Alex is better than NXT tonight. I am definitely better than NXT tonight. Jambeards trying to compare if they gave it, if Omos, Omos was the guy they hired, it would be 18 minutes, not five, because, yeah, I mean, honestly, I wouldn't know where the Omos is, but MVP is not there to like, talk for him, so I don't know what we're doing with him, but- I think he's doing ambassadorial stuff, and he's incredibly likable and great at it. Like if he's- Oh, he's nice. He's not doing in ring stuff, that's okay. He's really nice, but the two Nigerian, Nigerian giants facing off against each other would be- That's gotta be a moment, right? That would be really fun. And Jambeard also says, Hammerstone to me is macho man levels of talent in Ultimate Warrior's Body with the power of Vader. He's really, really special. >> He really is. >> He really is. >> There was a point where he hoisted up Obafemi, and then Obafemi got out of it. I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, let us show his power. I feel like he could Gorilla Press. >> He probably could. He's a really strong dude, unfortunately. This would not be the last time that we would be disappointed in things tonight. Not disappointed in this particular thing, the spooky chuvignet with- >> So good. >> Rosemary narrating it. This explains how Wendy Chu and Rosemary came to work together. It does not however, crucially explain why the hell Wendy Chu is the way she is. Please just, I'm with this bit of months now, can you please give us any insight? >> They're trolling us at this point for sure. >> They're never gonna show us what she is. >> I think one of the first lines of his dialogue in this was people have been asking how we came together. And I was like, that hasn't been the thing we were asking though, the thing we're asking is the other thing. But wow, this video was cool, wow, wow, wow. Rosemary deserves, I think, even Joel Pearlhead said this, she deserves this level of production for how committed she's been to being Rosemary, like this was special. >> There's been very few women or even just don't narrow it down to women, wrestlers who have been this committed to the bit for so long. >> Yeah. >> And who've nailed it every step of the way, going back to when she was with decay, she's great at this. >> She is. >> And if you want somebody spooky, she's the one to get. And her, I don't mind her and Wendy working together. And I thought the vignette was well done. And I liked it like the forces of evil called them together to like whatever. But like, okay, but why is Wendy a demon? >> Like this, very cool production though, very slickly produced. That's not enough. But like for what we got tonight, it was really, really cool and creepy and well done in service of both of them. >> It just made me happy for her, like for Rosemary, very cool. >> TNA Knockouts Championship, again, all of these women are waiting and for, now remember, this is years ago now, but remember how they used to have open challenges on NXT 2.0, brain bow days where it was like open challenge. And guys were fighting with each other in the hallway, just trying to get to the ring. >> They changed the rules every time there was one, it was all glassed. >> There was a fist fight in the hallway, one day it was a race, whoever could get into the ring first, got the thing? This is like always women are backstage and I think they thought it was going to be a brawl. And the winner of the brawl got the shot. But why are all these women, while all these women were in the locker room shadow boxing, so Ruka walked into Ava's office and signed a contract quietly to be the open challenge person. We didn't see her at all for the rest of the night. And that was a really cool thing because I had no idea it was going to be here. I thought for sure it was going to be Lola Weiss, the way that she was talking. But it was so Ruka, and I was watching this match with Sola Ruka and Jordan Grace and going, man, Sola Ruka is going to be really special. She's going to be really special. She doesn't have it all together yet, so she's going to be really special. And this is a really fun clash of styles between her and Jordan Grace. And I really hope that they give this match a little more time and the lights went out. And listen, there's such a thing, and then it's what do you call a cliche, term, suspension of disbelief. There's no suspension of disbelief that you will be able to get me to believe that Wendy Chu sneaking up on Jordan Grace can choke her into unconsciousness in less than 10 seconds. I'm sorry, no, that's just not a thing. Jordan Grace, she didn't get her arm all the way around her neck. It's just not a possible, there's other things you could have Wendy Chu do unless it's a weird, like, have it be a specific kind of, blow some powder in her face, which knocks her out or something. I don't know, she's already doing spooky stuff, do something else because the choke didn't look intimidating, and I don't believe that you could choke out Jordan Grace. I just don't believe anybody, because Samoa Joe would have a tough time choking out Jordan Grace. What do we do with Wendy Chu, like that was too fast. And no, like, not with the chain or anything either, it was not like an assisted thing, which I think would have helped if she had some sort of more, like, weapon involved. Good ambat here, good ambat here, I think last week I was like, "Who would be cool if it was Solruka?" And then it was, which was neat, because I was like, "She's not really in a story right now that would do a lot for her, so I'm glad that that piece of it happened. It was fun while it was going on, and I think it's good to set up a story, there's something going on with Jordan, Rosemary, and there can now be something going on with Solruka and Wendy Chu, which I think from an in-ring perspective will be great, like that's exactly who Solruka should probably be working with if she's not going to be going after a title. So all of that is great, it's just a weird pacing for tonight's show. This kind of happens sometimes. This happens on every wrestling show I feel like when there are situations where you pack so much into one episode it overloads it and then the pacing of things gets kind of thrown off. So imagine that. We would certainly never do an episode that had a weird pacing issues and got overloaded with super stuff. Listen guys, I gotta be honest, there are some very serious things to talk about. It's rough for us here in Springfield right now, I don't know if you've heard about what's going on here, but we gotta get out of here and get to Shelbyville immediately. It's a real problem, it's horrifying here. Nobody's checking on us, nobody's making sure that we are okay. Alex, your thoughts? Springfield is not, it's not safe to be here right now. No, Alex, come back on, no stay. Why, this is not a laughing matter. No, what can I do to help? Not eat us for one. Okay, well I'm vegan, so. Well thankfully, thankfully. No suggestions, no help. What, what can I do to help? I'm not in on the bit, I didn't watch. That's why I've turned, well Alex, back up. I'm two over two and killing Sean's bit. That's why I was trying to keep you here. I don't know Springfield things, I don't, I don't know if you're eating the cats and dogs. I'm vegan, what am I supposed to do? Everybody should be vegan, don't eat animals. I'm not a wrestling writer, this whole show is full of lies. I genuinely have no idea what the hell that was, I'm not, I have no idea what's happening. There's a vicious, crazy right wing lie that immigrants are eating cats and dogs in the city of Springfield, Ohio and that's all Trump could talk about during the debate tonight and I don't want to talk about any of that because I want to talk about something we're paid to cover, so I want to talk about the wrestling, so. Well unfortunately our boss is a big silly goose. I didn't know that was a thing, what the heck? It's a crazy, vicious right wing lie that if you let immigrants into the country, they will eat your pets. And I didn't want to talk about any of that tonight, I wanted, I wanted this to be a place of refuge from all of that, I need refuge. You guys can't see the name, but it says Santa's little helpers on it by the way as well, so, what are we going to do about the animals, Alex? I don't know, man, I don't know, that's Kuku bananas, it is Kuku bananas, it is Kuku. I like that the chat is calling for refuge for Oliver specifically, Oliver is very over, I kind of feel bad for Shaun's other cats, poor Kofi. Okay, so after Wendy Chu choked out Jordan Grace, immediately it cut to Tatum Paxtley showing her doll houses and dolls, action figures to Lyra. They are sitting in the middle of the backstage area. The thing, five seconds prior, Wendy Chu choked out Jordan Grace. And then Tatum Paxtley says, did you see what Wendy did to Jordan? Oh, that's terrible. You didn't see it either, because you're sitting here obviously in the middle of a scene with Lyra Valkyria. It could have been in TV around? Don't try and help them. There wasn't a TV there. I mean, nobody was watching like this. Nobody, no, it's not. So they would have been watching it wrong even if there was one? No, it's not true. This was a thing where now Lyra is talking about how they're such good friends now. And Tatum is way creepier and cookier and crazier now than she ever was when she was stalking Lyra before. The last time before last week that they interacted, Tatum was trying to beat the hell out of Lyra. They had like matches against each other where Lyra was trying to beat her up because like Lyra, Tatum hated Lyra, hated her. And now they're back to being friends because comedy. And then Lyra has the nerve to say, we've got to do something about those weirdos. Look at who you are talking to. Look at who your ally is. Like not like Tatum is like, you know, straight down the middle, totally got all the things working on upstairs. There are several lights on. Sorry, there are several lights on, but nobody is home. So anyway, some of the, like there was, she pulls, she pulls off a head accidentally because she's angry. She's like, oh no, could you do it? And when she pulls off the head, Lyra's eyes get crazy wide. She treated out the picture of that and she says, decapitate him. Like she, like so many people for some reason had to get on a flight from Calgary to Orlando. There is one airline that flies direct from Calgary to Orlando and so I looked it up because I thought it was going to, I thought you, I thought there was no way you could get a direct flight from Calgary to Orlando. There, there is one flight that flies from Calgary to Orlando. It's a, it's one airline. It's a five hour and 10 minute flight. If you are lucky enough to get that otherwise it's a nine hour trip because there's a Leo, there's a leg over it. I looked it up because I was concerned for Pete Dunne's well being. That man obviously had a hell of a very hard match to fight last week, last night he's got his eye all swollen up and bloody and he had a match last night and he had to get on a plane and fly. I assumed there was no way you could get a direct flight. So there's one flight, one flight per day that leaves Calgary to go to Orlando otherwise you got to get on a flight and land in Chicago and you got a three and a half hour layover in O'Hare before you can get another plane to go to Orlando. That is not fair to these people who were just in Calgary last night. It is absolutely mad that you looked that up. I wanted to have the information. I was like, oh, poor Pete Dunne, he had to fly a 10 hour flight from Calgary. It's not that long if you can get on the one airline that actually flies that far, you know. Well, if they got to Chicago, CM Punk probably used the Chicago powers to transfer. By the way, CM Punk apparently is going to be here next week as well as on October 1st, which makes October 1st a little less special, but again, Chicago. And then he's like, hey, great debut by Julia. This gives me an idea. Well, you're not going to find her, are you, Punk? Like, what are we doing? Like, how about I pick Julia and Drew McIntyre picks somebody on him and that those two ladies fight each other for the custody of this bracelet? What the hell are we doing with CM Punk? There's a lot to unpack here. First of all, the airline situation, I'm still not over, but I, Punk will announce something and I'm probably-- It was a simple Google. It was a simple Google. Calgary, two more land on flights-- How did you maybe even go there is what I want to know. But my guess is corgi just coming back, right? If she's ready, I don't know, I'll ask Cori. Punk is going to be in Portland, Oregon on Monday and then have to get in the damn plane and fly to Orlando. These people, they're travel schedules. I hate traveling. This is, you know what it is? This is me projecting. I hate flying. I hate it so much. Is that what's keeping you from being a pro wrestler right now? It is. That's the only thing that's keeping me. It's this damn schedule. I'm running from the grind because I don't want to get on multiple planes in one week. I hate flying so much. I'll ask Cori about a corgi update. But hey, I'm Sam Punk versus Julie. I'm not mad. Yeah, I am. So here's the deal with this. Lyra and Tatum will have a TXT match against Rosemary and Wendy next week for the-- They've done a terrible job. They really have. They have done a huge disservice to Lyra. Oh, this is-- this is it. Punk's going to be the special guest referee for her versus Julia. Oh. Yeah, that's what it's going to be. Yeah, thank you, Cyclo, for picking that one out. I think I would have gotten there eventually. But you've got it on. Next week, there'll be some growth in. For sure. For sure. We'll figure it out by next week. But I think at some point this week, I would wake up at 3 a.m. on a Thursday night in a cold sweat. Go, go, go, go, see how Punk's going to be the special guest referee for Rux and versus Julia. No, from Ruck. Yeah. So well, here's the deal. Jammy says, "Speaking of Punk, WWE selling replicas of the bracelet that a fan made him without even acknowledging it to the fan that a fan made it is a bad look IMO." Yeah, they apparently took it down, I think. Maybe they put it back up, but they took it down for a while last night. Yeah, I said on selection last night, that seems like the kind of thing that's CM Punk would yell at them for doing. Like he would get really pissed off about it. Also, shout out to Tait Machine, who's a great Twitter follow. He raised the point that it might be a little weird to wear somebody else's wife and dogs name on your wrist. No, not actually. Like in a mass-produced way. Not if you're in the CM Punk cult. That's definitely not. Of personality? Yeah, that one. Yes, poor Phil has to get on a flight from Portland, Orlando, only to a five-hour flight. My God, take of the children. I'm really not concerned about their travel itineraries. I wish them safe and comfortable travels. Also Bij talks to Dion Lennox about what gas lighting means because he doesn't know and also can't Google. What did you say that Sean Spears was doing to me? Gaslighting. What is that? It's when somebody tells you lies but tries to make you think it's the truth or whatever. And then Sean Spears walks up, his arm still in the slings like, "I didn't know the two of you were acquainted. I didn't know you were two were friends." We're not friends. I just wanted to talk to him about, he says, "You're gaslighting me." Oh, I'm just going to go ahead and leave now, because Dion Lennox is like, "I don't think that matters." Brooks is, "What do you believe?" That's the person that matters here. And I don't know. Brooks Jensen seems like he doesn't believe any of this, so... Neither do I, because I don't get it. I don't know what I'm going to say to you. I also don't know, because also the camera just moves from them across the... It's a one shot where they have one scene here and the camera turns and moves and they're going and finds Eddie Thorpe walking in with a phalanx of women behind him. And as Seanty did in us, he's like, "You're lying. There's no way you're here without with seven to twelve ladies behind you, and you're not having sex with all of them currently." And Eddie Thorpe's like, "No, that's not a thing that's happening." He's like, "You're a hypocrite, DJ platonic," so they've made a match for Eddie Thorpe versus a Seanty the Adonis for next week. I would choose the bear over a Seanty the Adonis. I would choose Eddie Thorpe over the bear. That's what I would take away from all that. But yeah, they got a... It would be nice if they gave Sean spears a clear role and let him execute it. What are you talking about? Who's got a clear role? He's the guy who walks up on you while talking like this. That's not a role. That's just a thing. I just like my new Sean Spears impersonation. It's pretty good. I want them to put some respect on Sean Spears' NEM. Yeah. Yeah. Trick Williams' recipe done last man's standing match. Yes. It's the last man's standing match. There's a lot of what you stand up from this, "Oh my God, he did it at nine." Every pissing time. Every time. "Oh my God! Will he stand up? He stood up." It's just a lot of that. You hate when people overcome adversity. I do. Some of these times they can stand up at five, six, seven. Yeah. That is really... Every single time. It's like nine and a half. They stagger to their feet. Listen, both guys both doing that the whole time. Here's the deal. The deal with this is that they have done a... Again, what is their aim? What are they trying to do here? If the answer is... Can't shake Williams back into the title picture. If the aim is to do just that, while making him look as weak as possible, congratulations. You've achieved your goal. Trick Williams won the last man's standing match. He did not do the move to the guy who did not stand up after the move. He was Russian leg swept off the balcony to the floor, through the table, and he stood up before the guy who did the move. You can't just have him of his own volition with his own agency, do him... This goes back to... He didn't actually, like Ethan Page, didn't win the title. He lost the match by being knocked out. He just happened to land on a guy, and Trick Williams couldn't get back into the ring. Trick Williams, who again, lost his NXT North American Championship in three days and never even asked for it back. And then he lost the other thing after a reign of like 60 days, where he had one TV title defense. The other thing being the world title, yeah. Yes, the other thing being the world title, and now he's trying to get it back in the weirdest way possible, and only gets his title match, because another dude Russian leg swept him off the top of a balcony, and then he staggered back to his feet in time to hit a back body drop on Ethan Page. It is weird that the build for Trick to get back to Ethan Page is through Pete Dunn, who is not on this show, really, and isn't aligned with Ethan Page to be like, "If you want to get to him, you got to get to me." I think it's actually done, tonight not as much their last match, definitely. I think Trick Williams needed a professional wrestling match where he looked really good, and I think the last one did that. And I think it was important for him to have a match where he looked really strong against a competitor who is a respected wrestler, and has some main roster cache, was probably a good call there. I lumberjack matches, last man's standing matches, I quit matches, are my least favorite stipulations. So this was going to be really difficult for me to buy into. I liked the spot, I don't like it as an ending to a last man's standing match. Like it was cool to see, inherently. But it was not an appropriate ending to a last man's standing match, unfortunately. There was some good work in here, I've kind of resigned myself, I don't like these, they're always going to be standing up at nine. Nobody is more dramatic than Shawn Michaels with this stuff, that was part of what made him great in the ring, but also can come across as very corny with stuff like this. So it's what it is, but you know, I really hope that Trick gets a big lift from getting back into the title picture. I really do, because he got robbed in both of his reigns, his first match with Ethan Page wasn't that great, the second one it was lost in such a wonky way, like I hope for this one they get out of their own way. I mean I hope he wins in a well-booked match versus Ethan Page to get the title back. And the brain that he has is booked well, I hope he has, I hope Ethan Page to settle the score for once and for all Ethan Page gets a rematch at Halloween Havoc and Trick beats him clean at the CW premiere and beats him clean again at Halloween Havoc and then we can move Ethan Page on to something else, I don't know what yet, exactly. But Trick Williams deserves a title reign that is booked, befitting a guy who's the most overdueed on the roster because he is. The other problem is, I feel like Ethan Page also deserves that and his reign has stopped him. Well, and today he gave a promo and he's always a good promo, but today he just felt like the fifth most important person on the show, like it really just feels so muddy right now. But you would destroy Trick Williams if he had the match versus Ethan Page on the CW premiere and Lost. Yeah, that's true. You know what I mean? I mean, that's just like, why would you do that? So like, here we go. So the problem I have with this is that Pete Dunn has a pinfall victory over Trick Williams and Trick Williams doesn't have a pinfall victory. Oh, just had- Yeah, he agreed. Why is the lab has a match? Have it be a no-de-q match? If you needed to be like- Does the Pete Dunn have two wins over Trick? No, just the one I think I don't think you have two, no, just the one, just the one. What happened? Sure. No, they had that match like six weeks ago, didn't they? Yeah, that was- Yeah, yeah. Yeah. And then- Okay. Yeah, sorry. There's been a lot of weird interference and things. There has been a lot of weird interference and things. He keeps doing all of that, but like, what was a double count out? Yeah, that was the one that I like. The only pinfall victory that anybody has and again, especially that night, we mentioned that Pete Dunn beat Trick Williams clean. He beat him sanitary. His loss was so clean, you could eat off the floor of that loss. That's how clean the- Like, that's what- You can't do that to Trick Williams to have him lose clean and then come back and get A gimmick match where he himself is Russian leg swept off a balcony Like here's the fighting on the balcony. I really liked yeah, that was really cool where you're where you're tussling somehow and Pete done like shoves trick back But at the same time pushing himself back so he's doing one of those whoa On the edge and trick runs up and does the trick knee and knocks him off the balcony and he lands thud by himself And tricks is standing up on the balcony looking down at Pete Dunne who does not get up And then he won he won the match because he did it. Yeah, because he did it Like like he had a thing done to him, but then struggled to his feet before the other guy did he had a thing Keep down to him We're getting we're getting Ethan Page versus trick with the trick Williams Contract signing next week. I have no idea what they do in the week in between that and the CW You know what I mean that always feel to me you should always have the the contract sending on the go home because I don't know What you do in between agreed agreed? Um, so Riteshkini says this is this is delayed and it's delayed me reading it as well But they see Julia as hard hitting Becky. I think Becky gets pretty hard as well Becky comes back into the fold. That's that's a major major major major major major match you need to build to But yes, I think they see her as somebody who can be along those lines for sure So we have a few more puns and then we have a jukebox and we might actually get out of here before two hours, isn't it crazy? Alphabir says Sonia Gravel Very good see Jesse Ozog says hydraulic J driller and froggy Boseau. I Like that it was double briskos Meet Norris says hydraulic Jack Perry Bam bam boa night Very nice penta el sero mechanicos It's a tool day. Yes, it is very nice Petrol fuel stop collective PFC very nice the outwrenchers and Dark Opal oh Like dark water. Sorry that one took a second. Yeah, there we go. Me too.
