A message from the Colorado Department of Transportation. Hello, and thank you so much for joining us for your NXT post show. Such a big episode. We had to call it two Scoopsters for this, but you've got me. You've got Alex Plausk. You've got our Brady Bunch set up here with our boxes, but get in those super chats. Get in those Humfer Chats at humferchats.com. Leave a thumbs up on this video. We had a huge night with Jordan Grace and Ethan Page showing up here. I asked Alex to dress like sexy red. He declined. I'm upset about it. No twerking, I guess either, but maybe he's saving it for FightfulSelect.com. Best $5 of the biz. Throw it behind the paywall. If you're going to be throwing it up. He's going to be throwing it behind the paywall. Perfect from $5. That's what's up. That's what's up. But man, oh man, a loaded episode tonight. Sean, you want to hop on here. I'm very excited to see Ethan Page on my television because Ethan Page belongs on my television doing professional wrestling somewhere, hopefully with somewhere that's going to follow through on his capabilities. I hope the best for him here. I think he can add a lot of value to this men's roster, especially the singles division. Could use a shot in the arm like him, I think. And he just brings something very different than what everybody there has. I would be shocked if he is a 10-pole talent in NXT and doesn't move to the main roster sooner than later. But you've been following Ethan for a long time. I know and he thought that you wanted to share or anything else you wanted to jump in on here. A lot of thoughts, a lot of personal experiences. First off, I want to say like Ethan Page is somebody who I've gotten to know a little bit outside of wrestling. I was on his toy vlog. I made it one of his most successful ever. It wasn't because Dan Housem was in the thumbnail. It was because of me. But he's a great guy. And not only that, a guy that I respect based on his morals, his principles, and not taking shit from anybody. And sometimes, you know, sometimes he's been a little outspoken about that on the indies and all that. But he moved from TNA to AEW. And we did an interview that will never see the light of day. In between that time. But he didn't ever quite get in AEW what he should have. And that's unfortunate because it really looked like the place for him. He met great success in TNA. And Josh Alexander has obviously met great success there as well. But also him going from from AEW to NXT to me, as Jambeard is saying, a perfect fit, a really, really great fit. I don't know what this means for his independent company, which I know that he was looking at and looking to do some great stuff with. I watched his first show and gave him a little feedback on it and all that stuff. But I'll tell you about my personal experiences with Ethan Page. So he was hoping to keep his AEW departure a secret. But naturally, that comes out. And he even said that he was hoping to show up somewhere else. And it'd be a surprise. I don't know if he knew it was this. I don't know if that was the case at that time. Like, I don't know if that far back he had necessarily has something like that out. He was supposed to feud in a pretty extended fashion with Kyle Fletcher. And the visa issues prevented that, then he came back. And that was that. They sort of wrapped things up and he left. I know he had been telling people for a while before that. I don't know if his deal was expiring or if he was looking to get out of his deal. I don't know which one that was there. I just know that he was looking to be without an AEW contract as of like this summer, as of like right now. That's what he was aiming for. And a couple of weeks ago, I said, "Hey, how you doing?" And he just said, "Meh, I bet meh." You son of a bitch. I know you're watching this. I know you're watching this Ethan Page. And I know that because you personally comprised 8% of our ROH post show viewership. I know that to be a fact. You're the person that watched our ROH post show, Ethan Page. But... Post it by me, so thank you. Post it by Jamie said very complimentary things about that post show. Check that one out. And afterwards, there's a TNA post show as well. Lots of stuff there. But obviously, I'm going to be on this story pretty heavily. I know Corey's been on it already asking if he signed and stuff. I've asked them to... Holy crap. But before Corey says anything, I can share with you guys at least a little bit. Corey knew something. Corey knew something was up. He knew something was up today. He's like, "Man, at 8-18," he said, "They're being way more secretive than usual tonight." And because of Corey, they have been way more secretive. And I did just get a word from WWE. And Corey has heard this as well. Page's sign. But Corey was aware that some fudgery was about tonight, for sure. Sure, infuriatingly so. There was a lot of it. There was a lot of it though, too. There were a lot of things to be kept secret. This was a big episode for them. And Jordan Grace also showing up here, I think, is awesome. The Women's Division got a little bit gutted from the NXT draft pool being sucked up a lot into the main roster. And in addition, a lot of the Women's Division is involved in the North American title, or just were involved in the North American title qualifiers. So having kind of an opening for Jordan Grace to come in is very cool. Sean, just out of general feel, and I'll ask Corey this too once we throw things to him, but do you think this is a symptom of more things to come? I already saw Mustafa Ali out there tweeting Trey Miguel saying that he wants to ride just one more time. Do you think we're going to see more of this or is this Jordan Grace specific? She was in the Women's Rumble, do you think? Who would not? Or Finn Widow is opening. Who was not tweeting about it? I even posted the thing where I said that wrestlers are going to be like, does this mean that continental, southeast, extreme pro wrestling, a Fayettezburg can show up on NXT too? Like with the chin scratch emoji, does this mean? I mean, I'm with Trey Miguel. He's like, please, just put us back together, at least once, the rascals. I talked to Myron Reed about that. He doesn't know if that's a possibility, but I've had a story on the back end of Fightful for quite a while that is going to go up this week about WWE wrestlers that I spoke with who would be interested in possibly doing some stuff with TNA. I think it's a natural crossover there. I hit up everybody I couldn't TNA. Nobody's talking yet, but they're going to buy the end of this weekend that much I assure you. But Jordan got brought in and it was, listen, Scott DeMoor was pretty sneaky about it, because while we didn't know that he was on the outs with TNA, he knew. He knew three weeks before that happened. And then WWE hits them up and he goes, yeah, sure, what the hell do I care? Go for it. Use Jordan Grace and Jordan Grace made an incredible impression there. Like I've often talked about how a few years ago, I think it was Chris Bay that was sent to New Japan to do the Super Junior's tournament. And that helped rebuild the bridge between New Japan and TNA. Jordan Grace is a big part of building the bridge between WWE and TNA right now. So the Super Chats and Humper Chats coming in about all of what is going on today. Keep those rolling. We're going to go through some of them right now. A lot of people excited for Ethan Page saying Ethan Page in NXT in 2024 was not on my bingo card. Not me either because I covered ROH. And he was like the only guy that seems to be giving a crap about that product. So I was hoping he was going to be sticking around. I want Dan Housen and NXT Nexus, John Taylor. We've got some more about this. Do NXT should also bring in Stu Grayson, him and Igor, two great Canadian boys that could thrive in NXT, says Jambir. Stu Grayson, not being on TV, is an odd one to me. I don't know if NXT is the place for him. But then saying, I hope Ethan Page gets the push he deserves in NXT and eventually on the main roster. Yes, couldn't agree more wholeheartedly with that guy. And Nicholas saying, so when Ethan Page came out and Rick said, is it he from AE with Booker cutting off the W? Was he not supposed to mention the AEW by name there? That would have been cleverly by design, cleverly by design. I would think so too. There was definitely an odd timing with the lights going out and then there being a delay and then Ethan Page coming in. So I'm sure that all kind of played a part of it. But Jonathan Corona kind of asked you what I did, imagine TNA versus WWE Forbidden Door PLE. My lord, you guys think they do it. PLE Forbidden Door of some sort, right? Feels more like maybe a talent crossover that a full blown pay per view to me. WWE is so stacked with PLEs, it would be hard to just create another specialty one. But who the hell knows in this thing? Do in this UFC Apex bullshit, then why not just go ahead and do NXT versus TNA? I think that would make for a fantastic show. Like literally Ethan Page versus Josh Alexander makes a ton of sense for that show. Like do NXT versus TNA and it will get buzzed. I think you can run an arena with that show just on the novelty of it being NXT versus TNA. This was like the third thing I thought of. I was like, oh my gosh, this is awesome. Mustafa Ali is still on the North American title shot. I don't think his undefeated streak lasts past Obafemi though. He probably didn't know what I mean. He's gonna politic. Someone needs to get Oba with the Hogan name going right now, to be honest. What are the odds of a one-on-one series for Roxanne and Jordan appearing at all against all odds or slam-reversary? Man, I think those two are gonna tear it down. But from what Corey said, she might be main roster-bound sooner than later, so I don't know if they're gonna want to keep pushing that. But I'll let Corey answer that because he's got a better beat on Roxanne than I do just speculating over here. It's always been kind of the same with Roxanne for what I've heard. It's just been when she loses the title, when this reign ends. That's when she goes up. So I have no idea when it ends. No one's told me anything like that. But yeah, I see Roxanne goes straight to the main roster, which does lose the title. Digest tweeting that the Ethan Page of Vanity searching is gonna be at an all-time high tonight. What a brat. Caden just saying "Hi, Corey!" That was a nice one. Not nice when he knows the meaning behind it. Caden's a little shit. Well, that's for sure. Can't confirm. Don't need- don't need you to scoop that one out. Aimex killer, if you had something to say, let us know in the regular chat. But no worries. If you were to throw in a couple bucks our way, we will always take that. Feel free to send us money. I don't even have to shell out my bangs for that kind of stuff. Wrestling with the movie saying Ricky Starks feels like he's on the way, no? Sean, you put that at 50/50 list we talked. I think we should control expectations about what this means. I don't think this is like an influx necessarily. I think Ethan Page is a good fit and he got signed. Yeah, there's literally nothing to indicate that Ricky Starks is imminently on his way anywhere. There's just nothing. Like I saw a bunch of people- I had people saying the other day, like God, it feels like Britt's gonna leave, huh? And I'm like, she's under a contract for years. Like what? No, there's no indication that she's gonna leave. I don't know the terms of Ricky's contract. I can tell you that I personally asked him approximately 4,372 times. And I have been answered about zero times on that. So I have asked. I ask all the time. Give or take. Give or take. We need an MSK reunion. That's what they're saying. So I hope we get it. I hope we get it. Zach, one of our wonderful moderators chiming in here saying, "This feels like new uncharted territory- or uncharted waters that even got me excited. I hope this leads to the biggest crossover ever." Yes, wrestling companies working with each other is a very, very good thing. Of the AJ Styles Altus segment feels a little different now. This also went through my head. Could we see AJ Styles go back for a program, would be something that's really fun. That was kind of the number one thing that stood out in my head as far as like a main roster one. I'm sure that Sean and Corey will be digging into all of this and more. But keep those Superchets and Humberchets coming, you guys. My heart is pounding what a knight says, Kyle. Joe Hendry versus Metaphor or Tony D or Ova. Joe Hendry crossing over to NXT would be hysterical. No, Amdar, yes, please. We believe in Joe Hendry for NXT. He could walk in there with a song written about so many of these guys, because the booking is so wacky that there's so many things that he could dig into. AJ Tripp with a very kind donation. Thank you so much, saying, "Who wants Joe Hendry versus Tony D'Angelo any day, any day of the week?" Anything else regarding Ethan Page? You guys have been generous with the chats. Please keep them coming. Keep them going, we're poor. John, do you have an update on Lashley? Usually we know the injury and the amount of time a wrestler would be out, but we haven't heard anything. I had somebody hit me up with some information today that I'm checking on, but I can't really speculate on that. Listen, he is at that point of his career where obviously they're going to be overly, they're going to take extra precautions with any injury, anything like that. I'll see what I can find out, but I have not heard anything of late. To make fouls with it. To make fouls saying, Ethan Page seems like a great fit not only for NXT, but WWE. He's a big dude, he's a great talker, and his style isn't wildly different than the WWE style. Love the Canadian content. He is one of the most can assimilate to any environment wrestlers I think I've ever seen. Like, he made it work and impact. He could have made it work in AEW. I thought the meta of the year stuff was fire. He was doing good face work on ROH. I can vouch for that. I'm going to WWE seems like a solid fit to me. I know that he deserves to be on TV somewhere where he's going to get pushed heavily. I don't care where. Like, I just think that he deserves the world. So wherever that may be, I'm confident enough in his ability that he can make stuff like that work, because he's only shown me that to be true so far. Isaac saying, who is more against working together with each other, AEW or WWE? Con and EVPs are Triple H in the crew. Jets in the sharks, right, Sean? So pull that back up, please, if you don't mind. I just unstarted. Well, you should leave it up for longer than 12 and a half seconds. Well, sorry. The question was basically, WWE versus AEW, Triple H in the crew or... I found it. Con and EVPs. Oh, good for you. Con and EVPs or... Probably Triple H and crew, I would say. I mean, I feel like once Triple H was put in control, as I will ask Corey to mute his mic whenever he taps away at the keyboard. I feel like that was sort of the clean slate, but then within weeks, whenever that call to swerve was made, and they were like, "Hey, you want to come back even though you publicly signed a multi-year deal on pay per view?" I think that sort of eroded some of that trust there. And some of the shots that were taken behind the scenes that people don't know about sort of eliminated that opportunity. Manifesting Joe Hendry showing up at Clash in the Hydro to beat up the trash, talking the crowd. Waller says he'll fight a local hero, not an average Joe. Joe Hendry feels like a very obvious one if they wanted to continue to foster these relationships. Sean, anybody that pops into your mind as far as people that could cross over from the TNA world into WWE for a program basis? Yeah. Gosh, let me pull up their roster as well. Anybody but Shaza McKenzie, honestly, seems like a pretty good decision. Do you know, have you heard about her manager? Honestly, listen, I know some people will scoff at this. AJ Francis popping up on NXT would get probably some heat. Probably get some really good heat. I think the good hands, if you plop them down on NXT and you put them in a match, against anybody, they're going to have a good one. Mustafa Ali weaseling his way back in would be really, really good. Tasha Steels is one that I would love to see do some NXT stuff as well. Killer Kelly, whenever it is that she's ready to come back is one of the just most TV standout type of people. Giselle Shaw as well. Kylie and King, if she was healthy, would make an awful lot of sense. Steph DeLander used to be an NXT, would make an awful lot of sense. But I think PCO, WWE owns an awful lot of PCO footage. Way, way back in the day that I think could be a lot of fun. I mean, you look up and down that NXT roster or that TNA roster and I'm like, okay, there's a lot of people that could pop up there. Ace Austin and Chris Bay, please give me them anywhere. Alan Angels is criminally underrated as well. There's just a number of talent over there that I think could do that. And then there are a bunch of people in NXT that I feel like could really benefit from popping up on TNA as well. Gigi Dolan, I think would be a fun one to see. Wondering where she's been these past few weeks. But Peyton Carter asking, could this be WWE trying to get ahead of AEW in the wrestling news world since Forbidden Door season begins tomorrow night for AEW? This was an insanely massive show for NXT. Just as someone that does this for the product. I feel like they're just trying to get ahead of Battleground more than Forbidden Door. Between when the talent got drafted and now they've had to do some rebuilding. But Corey, you're covering this beat too. I'll loop you back in on this if Sean will unmute your mic. But... From what I've experienced since Jordan came out. It was just from speaking to the talent that there's pretty much everyone is interested in working with TNA talent. It's not a case of anyone's kind of like, "That doesn't really work for me." Everyone wants to work with TNA talent. There's a couple of names that popped up like Leon Slater was a name that a lot of people named when I asked and yeah there is a lot of stuff that's probably going to come from this. And I'm looking forward to seeing what TNA talent does show up on NXT coming forward. I thought tonight was also a very smart night for them to do a lot of this with Sexy Red being on the show and for all the old people that were who? Well guess what, you weren't the target audience there. I'm one of them. I didn't say that but I don't know who she is. But I'm old so I get it. Because also you know it would be very stupid to just shout out who? Because a lot of people did that over Bad Bunny as well. And she's got one and a half million followers. So obviously someone knows who she is. But then on this same show where you might hypothetically, ideally have some people tuning in to see her, you got people seeing Jordan Grace and they might not even know where the hell she's from. But they'll know that she's a big deal and Ethan Page popping up as well. Ultimately it was a very smart night to do that. I love when wrestling companies double up on this. When something like Jordan Grace happens and people go, what? I got to tune in. I got to stop watching what I was watching and watch that. And then when it's done, it's not done. Because here comes another one. And I think those types of things come well in twos. When you got one big thing that happens, give them something else really big that happens. I think that'd be pretty cool. I like that too because I think that's also a good way to get people talking about the product and not that thing that happened. I remember having this discussion about old ROH and the difference between ROH being hot and the difference between coding in the elite being hot. And then what happens, coding in the elite move on. Here you're talking about a developmental product. And the goal is to get those people to move on. So you hope that they're talking about the product overall. I think that's a very important distinction. But we've got some more Super Chets and Humber Chets coming. Thank you guys so much for all the support. Sophie saying I would love to see Giselle Shaw on NXT as would I. But please don't tell Matt Hardy about the talent exchange. The line drive saying Battlefront is too stacked for the Apex. I would very much enjoy a Tony D and Broken Matt Hardy vignette. I'm sorry, I would love to see Tony D visit the Hardy compound. No, I'm in with you 100% on that line drive saying that this is too stacked for the Apex. I don't get why they're going to the Apex. But I will say like my favorite match going into tonight for this was Lola Weiss and Shayna Baszler. Like they're offering a lot of different things heading into this field, which is a good thing. The booking is always very weird to get there. But like I'm excited that there's some momentum that got built into tonight. I need Iliya versus Josh Alexander. Yes, yes, yes to that. What else do we need to keep Sean around for anymore of these sets? I'm just I'm just happy to be here. I mean, I can tell you that I immediately went and asked TNA people about the Jordan Grace thing. And apparently there's the wrong people to ask. It doesn't seem like as much of their call as anything. But I do I do got a story coming on that this weekend on FightfulSelect.com. We're going to have more on MJF's return and how that all came together. And today was a really, really big day on FightfulSelect.com. Corey had mentioned they were they want to use Tegan Knox. We got a bunch of NXT scoops. We had WWE raw producers and scoops there as well as some Becky Lynch notes. We had some AEW double or nothing notes as well. We just got a ton of stuff over there. But yeah, we're going to we're going to have just even more. We're going to be monitoring the Becky Lynch thing. And that's wild. It's just it's it's weird to think that. I mean, at the after all and how every year has gotten crazier than the last in some way, I said, okay, well, this year might not be as crazy. But the free agency in the contracts are going to be as robust as we've ever seen it. And it has been that way even if it's not free agent movement. Like there's just so much going on. But I love this Jordan Grace popping up in NXT. And if you're TNA good, because I mean, first off, if you're Jordan Grace, good because you know when your deal is up, they're coming calling for you. Yes. Like they're they're not worried about your only fans page now. They're coming for you. They're coming to sign you. They're going to try. And this is a woman who is who is it? I don't know if she still is. At one point, a millionaire outside of wrestling for that reason. She's she's got a lot of options right now. And that's because she handles herself so well anytime she goes to a place like that. Like I remember when she did the Royal Rumble spot and I was told by people backstage like TNA could not have had a better representative there. They could not have had somebody she came in, she shut the fuck up about it. She didn't didn't spill it to everybody. She didn't do any of that. In fact, when I found out about it, she hatched a thing with me to where she would give me the first interview afterwards. She preserved that secret largely until I think somebody else, maybe, maybe you let that go. But she did everything she could to preserve that didn't, you know, get out and tell the whole world about it. We worked out a deal where she would tell me the how, when, why, like explain how it came together and all that. She conducted herself well backstage. She had a good performance. She looked like a million bucks. And then of course they wanted her back. And after Scott DeMoor left, you did have to kind of wonder like, well, what does that mean for that? Like how will that slow things down? Will that change things? Will they even want to do business with each other? And yeah, it seems like things are going pretty damn well for them so far. My God. This one has to do with your best friend. So it's very special. But do you think we could see Gail Kim up here with Jordan and see her on NXT? Gail said she'd return if it was a good storyline. Possibly, possibly. I mean, she's joked about wrestling me. So if she's, if she joke about wrestling me, she might actually wrestle somebody else that's any good. I did try to hit her up. She's like, I ain't saying anything. I'll get in trouble. So no info to be had there, but I hope so. I think that Gail Kim deserves a big send-off type of thing. Like I think, I mean, she's so instrumental and inspirational. And you know, another term that's used to explain her and Rocky Romero. Unfuck withable as well. Like you don't, they are two of the people that you want to maintain the respect of in pro wrestling. And I mean, I'll give you a good example. How many horror stories did you hear about Tessa Blanchard while she was in TNA at TNA tapings? Didn't hear about any of those behavior issues there. Because there was somebody unfuck withable that was backstage running the ship. There were none of those issues or anything like that. She maintained that respect and she does it in a very classy way. I hope that something like that happens. But I honestly feel like if she was to ever do something like that, one, it might be like at an arena show, but I think she would probably want her send-off to be in TNA. I think out of principle, she would want that. Maybe if it was like a co-promoted like TNA NXT show, I think that'd be kind of cool as well, but- Anything's possible. K and NXT would be awesome. Rosemary versus Tatum. Those two gals speaking the same creepy language. K and being nicer this time around saying, wrestling is better when talent move between companies. It keeps everything fresh. Good for Ethan. Hope we see more soon. Do it Becky. Yes, I'm just very happy for that dude as a person and to see what he's going to be able to bring to NXT very, very much so. If this is a sign that AJ should go back to TNA for the 20th anniversary, since Nick Aldis said no to him getting the title shots that he wants a title, so WWE versus TNA.

WDB have officially confirmed to me that Ethan Page has signed. Does if there was any doubt now, Corey and I had both heard that. But WDB in an official capacity did confirm that. Agreed. Agreed. That's so good. So happy for that guy. Me too. So happy for that guy. I was talking about Corey. I'm happy for Corey. I'm happy for Corey too. I can't be happy for Corey. You're never happy for me, Kate. What are you talking about? I'm happy for you when you choose not to be a coward. That's all I'm saying. That's all I'm saying. What happened there? Oh no, it's been our running gag for since I think it's a second of mine. It's a long, long time video. I know you don't watch the show. You just look at how long it went. That's all you care about. Not where we're making money. Listen, understandably, if it goes a little over two hours tonight, I think I'm okay with that. But as long as the super chats and humper chats keep rolling in. Hard to offset it. I did think about you when Alex was doing Braun Strowman impressions as Disney characters yesterday, but whatever, but whatever. No, hold on. Speaking of Braun Strowman, I had an issue. I had people saying, "Oh my God. He needs to let the hair go." And I say, "Go to hell." No, no, no, no. He's got to get, he's got to let it go, man. It's mad. No, no, full earthquake. Go full earthquake. That's when haircuts were men. And to me, here's how it works. If you're really little or you're really big, that haircut works. Give it to me. I want the full scullet. I want that. I want that. Well, if that's what you want, if you want- I'm sorry, but because of earthquake, Kate, every man that I saw with that building haircut, I assumed they could fucking fight when I was a kid. I just knew they could fucking fight. You ruined my blue two segue. I was going to say, if you want to- When haircuts were men. I was going to say before I was so rudely interrupted, and it's not a manscaped throw, which would be even better. But I was going to say, if you want someone to give it to you, bluetwo.com. Code rifle. Is your sex life stuck in developmental? Well, get ready for a call up with blue. Hell with this, I do it live.

You don't have to go to the pharmacy, and then the pharmacy lady be like, "Oh, you know what, he's got? It's that penis stuff." No, that doesn't happen. You know what you don't have? You don't have your mailman going like, "Ah, special delivery." "Oh, yes, it's a blue chute." No, because it's in a discreet package. But here's the thing. Shut up, Kate! There's going to be... How does it feel? There's going to be nothing discreet about your package when you use blue chute in the code "Fightful." Nothing. It's going to be loud and proud, and you get your first shipment free. And listen, that might upset the mailman too. He'll be like, "Free, how did this happen?" I thought the mailman wasn't supposed to know. Well, I mean, listen, they'll probably tip him off. The shipment was free, at least. He'll see that pre... He'll see the postage, and it'll be like one of those things that they've got to deal with USPS, I'm sure. We should let Rich Warshan do this. .com. And the code "Fightful." I mean, the deal I made with blue chute is they get to use these on other platforms now. So somewhere... Like, you're just going to see a Facebook ad of this somewhere. Oh, good. I'm sure it will be so effective. For them? There's some business for you guys. That's how we got an increase on ad rates. I let them reuse my ads on other platforms. There you go. My gosh. I'm sure they're just foaming at the mouth to use that one. I'm sure. Dan Beard saying, "If you need help lasting longer than 12 and a half seconds, blue chute is for you." I don't know what that was in reference too, but Sean's ad was definitely longer than that. Definitely longer than that. Can't leave you disappointed. Y'all, let's take a moment. It's not even June yet. 2024 is nuts. Sean, Corey's going to need a race to keep up with all the scoops. I love wrestling. I love wrestling too. Thank you, Tim. Jordan Grace needs to get back at Bianca for Royal Rumble. I've looked the more Jordan Grace and WWE the better, I think. That's just me. But I think that's all the super chess and a humper chess that we have related to this that we need you here for, Sean. Unless you want to stick around. I'm not allowed to just hang around. You just got to prompt me to stay. Did you live here? Show up there. I invented this show. Okay. Remember all the time Sean used to mute me. Okay, it's nice. Faster. And look, the rightful host is up in the host spot there. The guy who probably at least knows how to use the intros at the start of this. Oh, come on. And his computer won't completely just spaz out. It's hard. I'm trying to make sure we get on the stream. Okay. We have a lot to talk about. Blue Chew Just Green. Skull it in her face. Very nice to come here. Skull it's rule, man. They do not. Joseph Belita saying I don't have my haircut like that. It just grows that way because I'm a shocker. Pun topic. Skull it's haircuts. I was just going to say, I feel like we walked right into it. A bunch of wrestling haircut puns. For sure. Mr. Banana Head saying just want to say, I appreciate the team Fightful a lot. Well, we appreciate you and the chats that have been coming in all night. We are 37 to this and we have not even gotten to the show. But keep those super chats and hopper chats coming up. I'm leaving. Okay. Well, that. Fightfulselect.com. Fightfulselect.com. There will be more about the TNA crossover. Sean said, hopefully at Fightfulselect.com this weekend, as well as more stuff about MJF's return coming together. More Becky Lynch news as soon as it's available. We promise tons of contract news all year. But Corey. Sean was telling us that it was kind of fun and kind of silly that you were like, there is. I am being kept secrets from today, which is not fun when you're a scoopser, but with obvious reasons here. You said it was a little chaotic backstage because of this, a little hard to do your job today. Your thoughts on this, was this a talent surprise too? Yeah, it was kind of, it was just a really strange day. Just completely different to what I'm used to cover in NXT at this point. And it was largely because of the Saudi trip. Like a lot of people seem to get really confused when you say, "Oh, there was a lot of people at NXT who went to Saudi." There's so many different people in that crew who need to go over, guys. And that all impacts people coming back into town today. And they got in their late, the shows put together late. It wasn't in the same sense of like Vince used to tear up the script on the day and rewrite it. It was a case of they had the basic bones of what they wanted, but they needed to get all the reversals, all the extra pre-texts, all that film. So there was just a bit of chaos. And yeah, it didn't help as well. Just today in general, it was so secretive. There was a lot of places in the PC backstage that talent just weren't the let go. That's standard practice whenever there's someone who's stared at us as a surprise. No one's seen Ethan, no one's seen Jordan. People in production that I spoke to were completely stunned. One of the biggest things today that people kept. I got four or five different messages over when it happened. TNA chants in the WWE Performance Center. Totally crap. That's crazy to me. And I got to go fight different messages from people, just saying how crazy that is to them, how surprised they were when Jordan came out. And that's the thing. I haven't heard a thing, not even a whisper of TNA working with NXT. But you bet you're asked a minute Jordan walked out. People started wanting to talk about it. Sure. And like I said, everyone wants to do it. This isn't just some one or two matches that people hope happens. Most of the roster in NXT. People like to think, oh, there's not many wrestling fans in NXT. They're all athletes. These talents are students of the game. You don't think they're paying attention to TNA or watching old TNA or grew up with TNA. They know what this brand is and it's important to them. Even though they are assigned to WWE. So I agree with Shonda. It's an arena level kind of show. And there's just so much about what happened with the show today. I'll probably be covering it more in depth on select later in the week. But even from people who have been working with the brand for years. Said to me, even including NXT Mania last year. They said that tonight was the most hectic environment that they've been in at an NXT show. And they tested a lot of that to do with the surprises. The rundowns didn't come out fully. The full rundowns usually come out roughly around four to five p.m. Usually. Today, they didn't come out to literally minutes before the show went on the air. The last level of match was happening when the full rundowns started to be distributed. And that's partially due to the fact that they're trying to keep a lot of things more secretly. I talked about this quite a bit in the last few months that they have been doing a lot to keep. Things of the wraps. And tonight was probably the biggest example of that for me. Sure. Makes sense. Makes sense. We'll have a number of surprises. Keep those super chats and hopper chats coming in if you have anything for Corey or just in general. We're 40 minutes into this. We got haircut puns that just showed up. If you want to get it on some haircut puns or even to talk about the show. But Ethan Page, Jordan Grace, being the first of the surprises here Corey. Anything that you've learned on that since in addition to what you kind of just told us about how that came together or should we wait for Fight Plus life for more? I've got a couple of details. Obviously just only so much I can get an hour after the show goes off the air. But the thing that was really interesting to me was the fact that Lea was used as the dummy for this. And a couple of weeks ago they used Medusa as a dummy named for Meachin. But I found out as well Lea was not the only one who was used as a dummy. Alexa Bliss was also used as a dummy. And from my understanding of what they tried to do with these dummy names is they distribute one that's completely out and it's crazy. It's not going to happen. No chance now. And then they've got a smaller one that makes it could it happen? Bliss could pop up. Who knows? But yeah, no one that I spoke to turned around to me and went, "Yeah, Lea is going to show up tonight." Or Alexa Bliss is going to show up tonight. Everyone knows that these people aren't going to show up. Everyone knows the drill by now. This is something that I found only to really start to happen more in recent months. And even though NXT has been really good at keeping this kind of stuff on the wraps for the most part, especially with mysteries and so on and so forth, like the known dare. Or I got attacked a couple of weeks ago as well. I think a lot of people forget that. And everyone just assumed it was DiJak. But that's been building to Ethan. And people just didn't know about it. So again, it's the same with Jordan. No one knew she was there, other than the key people who had to know. No one filled in for rehearsals. It was just a case of Dave Plaguely. His music was set at hers. Roxanne acted surprisingly at the other. I know that this is a match that is very important to NXT higher ups. They really, really need this match to hit. They really need this match to be a success. And I think a large part of that is, I don't think this is a test run for Julia. But I think this is a very, very, very big moment to kind of just show if they're going to bring in someone who isn't signed to the company and give them, let them show the title of the company that they are signed to, what are they going to do with someone who's technically speaking signed to all companies? So I think that was a really big thing. And a lot of people actually said that to me as well, when I asked about this, it felt like a test run to a couple of people. Sure. I don't think it was a test run, but I definitely think they've taken no of, okay, we can put another champion on the show, put the belt, and they'll instantly be welcomed or just in general. And one thing that I do want to say is Sean was mentioned in a super chat, and I didn't get a chance to say it. But that line by Vic Joseph, A.E., and then cut off 100% intentional. I'm sure. Yeah. Someone said that when he said it, there was a brief moment where people were kind of like, oh, wow, he nearly actually said it backstage, and then they just moved on from it. So Vic's not under any risk of being in trouble or anything like that. But yeah, there'd be a lot more guys. I just only so much I can find out at this point, get 4 AM for me. So yeah, tomorrow's when I'll have as much info as I can get for, especially. You did mention Julia too, and I did want to circle back on that because she did have the unfortunate fracture. It does look like she might be back in time for heat wave. We'll see how all of that goes because risk injuries, of course, can be nagging and linger around. But anything that you wanted to update us on there? Yeah. And the Wrestling Observer did report that WWE did want to have the surgery. And I did ask around about that. And it was a very prevalent opinion that the surgery would lead to her being back in the ring sooner. And that's why WWE pushed it. They really are hoping she can appear heat wave. That being said, if she's still recovering, she's still in a brace, they might decide to just kind of ease her into it later in the year. That's what I've been getting at. The surgery itself is basically just a small incision. They insert a metal slab into your hand. And that's interesting. There you go. It helps with, as far as I know, I'm not a doctor. I'm just going off what I've done in my own research about it. I'm not a doctor, but it does seem like a surgery that will lead to being back in the ring a lot sooner than if she was healing naturally. So that's good news for everyone. And one thing I do want to talk about, I know I mentioned, we talked about this before, Gloria now, I think, I think there's more chance of Gloria being used on WWE programming now more than ever. When I first, when everything was coming out about Julia signing, when I was asking about that, there was a lot of, no, no, there's just no way they'll let her keep it. It'll be death-reble. But yeah, I now, especially with Jordan, Jordan shows up, she has her DNA thing, then so on. So again, there's just a lot of moving parts in NXT right now. And I think in the coming months, we're really going to see a new kind of version of NXT. It's slowly been building up this mix between old school, black and gold, and what they want now with the NIL athletes and so on and so forth. So I think with the CW change, we're going to see just the final, how do you say, the final presentation that they really are looking to do, and they've been building to over the last year, a year and a half since it changed from NXT to point out. Nicholas said, I saw a post from Corey about my question and I apologize if it was a dumb question. I was wondering about the cutoff, but worded, it different. Sorry if it came off wrong. It's okay, a lot of people had that question today. I think a lot of people had that question today. We got some more Super Chats and Humber Chats. We are going to get this going though, but I'm sure Corey will have plenty more to fill you in on on FightfulSelect.com. I'm sure Sean's going to be working on some of this too as it is a big one if it's indicative of a bigger relationship. But Corey, thank you so much for joining us for this now. Additional hour to your day in the wee hours of the UK time zone. We appreciate you being here so much, but sincerely, thank you for your hard work and you look forward to seeing your additional reporting on this. FightfulSelect.com. That's $5 in the biz. Plenty more news on this to come. Thank you, Corey. Enjoy the show, guys. Follow Corey, Corey Brennan, FF on X for more. We'll see him very soon, I'm sure. But man, oh man. Well, Alex, can we step the show now? We can. There are more Super Chats about this that we didn't get to. But definitely we're going to talk about it. I want to start our show. I want to start our show, Alex. We want to talk about the show that this was all in, Darnit. We're here to talk about foibles. This is mostly foibles. This show is about foibles. Yes, we're excited for Jordan Grace. Yes, we're excited for Ethan Page. That's all great. But did you see that stupid thing where Edu sent a fake knock Brinley Reese off the apron and then was like, oh my God, she's dead. We've got to talk about that. That's my wheelhouse. We do. Everyone's in the chat going like, well, Alex hasn't said anything for 36 minutes. Yeah, I know. I'm like the scoopsters trade scoops and you're much better at interviewing people than I am. I like to talk about flables. I'm not good at answering asking questions. I'm good at answering. Where were the foibles? Well, Alex, we do have to do these. Our customary amazing Alex, Kilicate Papa Paul, Elizabeth, sisters and all of the SDS got a catch of red eye, a sexy red eye to the berg of pits at five a.m. trying to sleep or power through, try and sleep, try and sleep. Much love and everything sucks. Alex, I'll steer this back your way because that's this is now this is now your territory. But okay. Okay. Tom LaVally says, welcome to the NXT post show. We got bits for days. We do have. John's like coward. What's this about? Oh, it's just a thing that Kate calls Corey and has for weeks. Yes. You didn't have scoops on the week of a double taping. And I was like, if you if you weren't a coward, you would have had scoops. Sure. Michael Dammit with some scary news, but better than it could have been. Michael Dammit says, lucky to be here had a minor heart attack on Saturday. Love you guys and the SDS. We love you, Michael Dammit. Dammit, we're very happy that you're okay, Dammit. Michael, we're glad you're okay. Dammit. Michael, we are glad you're okay. So seriously, sincerely, that's scary. So that's scary. Take care of your health. Take care of yourself. But thank you for being here. And we were the best chance to be able to. Jim Beard says, first half of the show wasn't sour enough for Alex to anything about. I mean, well, hold on. I mean, I can usually find something to be sour about. No, not this one. Mr. Bandana head says, just want to say, I appreciate team Fightful a lot. We appreciate you, Mr. Bandana head. Paul Hensler, your father says, happy unofficial start of summer to the colonel, the council, the sisters, the beard, and Sir Normus. This will be a great show, although everything sucks. With our Super Model East and Super Team Klex, stay cool down south, Mr. JW Pringle, down south. It's way down south. I think you're, are you singing lay down Sally? Because that is a, that is a, that is not the lyrics to that too. And I literally, I have no idea where that came from. Just happened, just half an Alex. What? Throwback says, we just got the era as a version of takeover Brooklyn. Going on the card so far, the main event will be Grace and Perez, just like Sasha versus Bailey, the show is becoming much, must watch the casual fans. Yeah, there's a lot to talk about with, with the implications of this, not just for the thing they're doing in front of 1200 people for some reason in nine days, but, but a lot of other reasons too. There will never be another Sasha versus Bailey, though. No, for sure. Because of circumstance. I'm not saying work great, but because there's only, there's only one, there's only one first time ever. And that was the first time everyone was like, Oh, right. We're wrestling out of American. Women wrestling, good. That's crazy. Vicki says, Hi, Kate. Now looks like if Sean cash for staying up late, you get cash for karaoke. Nice to meet you, Corey. Yeah, nice to meet you. Corey. It's nice. Thank you very much. Ask Kalex and SRS. I'm loyal to wrestlers. Sting. Now, Osprey, and I was an Ilya girl in NXT, weren't we all Ilya girls? We were such, Ilya, you were such an Ilya girly pop. Because we are living in an Ilya world and I am a Matilia girl. No? Okay. I'm hitting my stride, okay. Let's get into it. So, we'll talk way more about the TNA and stuff crossover. We get to the Jordan Grace. We'll talk a lot more about Ethan Page with the end of the show. Let's talk about the beginning of this thing because listen, I understand that I am in no way the demographic for Miss Sexy E Red. And you have to say that because I thought there were two X's. And apparently there are two Y's. And to that, I have to. Yes, there are two Y's. Everything I saw everywhere all over my timeline was that there were two Y's, not two X's, but two Y's. And to that, I ask why? Why? Why would you put two Y's at the end of your name? That doesn't make any sense. Anyway, also, that's what doesn't make sense to me. But then again, again, I am old and I am not necessarily of the culture. Face tattoos just never make sense to me ever. And they showed a pic every time they showed a pic of her on NXT. She'll be here next week or whatever. They always showed her looking over this way. And that's the no face tattoo sign. So when I saw face tattoo side, I was like, I didn't know who this person was before. And now it's like, I know you're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but sue me. Like, I'm just like, I don't know who this person is. I don't, I'm not one of her 81.8 million followers, nor do I know what they're following her for. So great. Booker T apparently is one of the 1.8 million followers. He may have actually created several burner accounts to follow her 28 times because he was really excited for Ms. Sexy Red. He was. Yeah, I am disappointed that you declined my invitation for you to dress like Sexy Red. That's disappointing to me. I didn't want to get us A demonetized and B pulled off the air. That's fair, but Nigel McInneske if I want to see it. I guess she's a wrestling fan. I know she's a rapper. It just not to have someone avail the North American title does not feel like the appropriate spot for her is my only thing about it. Like, yeah, see, Ava can unveil that. Like, she's they they had her play tug-of-war with the belt twice tonight. And I don't know. Like, is she is she a Brock Lesnar or B Roman Reigns or the go home to WrestleMania 31? Because if she's neither of those people, just don't do tug-of-war with belts. Ava coming out and being like, she's whatever. They name all these things that she is. She is the blank blanking, the blank blanking, and the baby daddy freeing. And that must be a reference to a song that she has. But I don't know. How are you freeing baby daddies? And why? Are they being held against their will? Someone should free those baby daddies. I don't understand what that any of this is. But anyway, she comes in and she she does her thing, which Booker T was very appreciative of. Booker T sounded like Tomatanga in that one backstage thing. He was just like, he just gives his medal. Okay, enough. She comes in and she gets to unveil the thing. And she holds it up and then Tatum Paxton. We haven't seen Tatum Paxton. She was hanging out in Ava's office three weeks ago, and she comes in and grabs the belt and they tug-of-war at the belt. And I was like, is she in the running to be the champion? Because that's the only person I think should be holding that belt up. I when she first came out, I was like, this is it. This is Roxanne Perez, this challenger at the interview, Sex Red versus Roxanne. But I also, it was weird that she grew such an attachment to the belt. Like I don't know if HBK told her or Ava told her that she would be competing for it or the inaugural champion. But she definitely seemed to think she was under the impression that the belt was hers. I don't know if she was told that she gets to keep a replica belt, but it was very weird. Yeah. Very odd. So Tatum comes in to grab the belt from her and then meets in comes in. They immediately start their match because Tatum put her in the ladder. I mean, with how much she was all over the show tonight, you would think she was like the celebrity who's wrestling a match on the pay-per-view. You know what I mean? And honestly, considering how much, like I don't know who the hell she is, I don't, whatever, it's not for me. You listen to Yacht Rock, I'm perfect. I do. I do. It's quite Christian. It's a very hurt by that. I'm sorry. Christopher Cross came on today and it made me tear up. So listen, okay. Don't you judge me. Don't you dare judge me. We have had so many productive conversations about grunge and artistry. Right. No. Listen, in my old age, I've begun to prefer easy listening. So listen. Sorry. This is fun for me. Sorry. I'm 24. Right. So here's a deal. I wouldn't be surprised if they built to her having a match down the line. If she's such a huge wrestling fan and really wants to get involved with it, cool. That's fine. But like right now, I don't I don't know what whatever. Tatum Paxtley loses to meet you in and I get why you have meet you and win it. Hey, she's she's a she's a feels like an NXT OG, you know what I mean? And if she had been in NXT, when they had a North American championship for the women, she would have won that shit. And she actually posted a picture of Keith Lee holding it up and like he got to be Mr. North America. Now I'm gonna be Mrs. North America. I don't think she's winning, but I understand why she's there if for no other reason than to guide all these women. Yes, through a ladder match ladder match is probably a good idea. But also, do you remember that promo vignette they did with Tatum when we thought she was gonna feud with Laravelle Currier for like six weeks? Yes. And we were both so impressed with the characterization, how easy she delivered, how easy she inhabited the character, how well she delivered all the lines. Then she got a match with Laravelle Currier and we were like, where the hell has this been? She's really good. And my thought is, you gotta find a way to like capitalize on that and they've done zilch zero nada to do that. And while I understand why me chin should be in the ladder match, so should Tatum Paxtley. I don't know who you take out instead, but Tatum Paxtley, but give, put a seventh in there, why not? Like just, I don't understand why she's not in it to help to capitalize on that because I think she is of all the of the great, the greatest of his division in the world. So say if Ava, she would be near the top of that if I was ranking it right now. Sure. From what I've seen of her and I wish they would done doing that. It's also to me that Vignette was so indicative of the fact that she needs to be chasing gold, because remember there were people like she doesn't belong in the spooky character or whatever, but you and I had the same thought that it felt more to me and to you, I think, like chopping Goldie rather than like spooky scary, whatever, as much as it was like an obsession and a fixation on getting a title. So the North American title would have made sense. And if it's not the North American title, she should be chasing Roxanne, but we now know who her next two competitors are, unless there's going to be a defensive between and that's going to be tated, which doesn't really fit from a heel face perspective, very different heels. You could easily line that up, but not just capitalizing on the progress she's made or the momentum or things like that, but the character needs to be looking for gold. So unless she is going to challenge whoever wins it, it does feel kind of like a waste, which is a shame because she's doing really good work, really good work. I think she's, yeah, you could describe her as the Tatum and Goldie relationship. I think she's insane. You don't have to be spooky to be insane. Right. And I mean, I mean, what's a fixation on, she seemed fixated on the championship. I don't know what I mean, like, yeah, and it was in a specific way, agreed with your, with your assessment, but in a more general way, non-spooky insanity can be pretty good. I thought that that Joe Gacy was doing a pretty good job of non-spooky insanity. We just have to like wait through, I think a six, maybe seven more QR codes, we finally see if that guy's part of the Wyatt six or not. Yeah. So, okay, so Luis is telling me that Baby Daddy Freeing is a reference to a song with rapper and OV Ho Aubrey Drake Graham named Rich Baby Daddy. Again, most of those words are foreign to me. Hearing you narrate that just made my next 25 years of my life. She also does have an album dropping on Friday. So there, that is part of why she was there. My bigger thing was like, they also, now she's going to be the host for Battleground. And she was kind of just the host of this whole episode. We saw a lot of her, which is cool. Yeah. And we will see more of her at Battleground. Yep. Um, sweet and sassy creations says title baits, title belts need to be with NXT stars, not main roster stars. Tatum should have advanced not meet you and pushed the NXT stars. I, I don't think meet you has is in danger of winning the NXT North American title. No, and she has not shown up on other brands. You know, she was drafted, right? Right. And, and now we're, yeah, we're, we're, we're, we're seeing, we're hearing they might want to do an extended run of Shegan Knox in NXT, which would be great if that was the only show she was on and she wasn't on Raw or SmackDown, whichever one she was drafted to, I forget. But yeah, I don't mind me being around. I don't think she's going to win it. And I, but I do agree, you're not allowed to be like, we have the greatest women's division in all of wrestling. That's why we brought one down from the main roster to be in the ladder match to get the first mid card title. And also why we have to go to TNA to get a challenger for our top champion. It all fits perfectly together. Don't you agree? And, you know, it's a big much, you know? I will say second week in a row where Avon's been rocking my mind his look. It works for her. She pulls it off. Yeah. She kind of, she's done it a lot, but now she's like fully leaned in. Rich Holland defeated Riley Osborne in what felt like the longest match I've ever seen in my life because of how little I care about what the hell's going on. I'm sure it was like 14 minutes. It felt like it was 50. However, how long was that tag match between the rock and Roman and Seth Cody? It was at least that long. It just felt like, I don't care. You could have handled all of this business in six minutes. And I would have cared the same. I don't understand, like, we're going somewhere with Ridge and, like, eventually it looks like Andre Chase is going to vouch for, there's a backstage scene that I don't even care to describe. But it looks like eventually Andre Chase is going to side with Ridge Holland over Duke. And Riley, Riley loses to Ridge Holland in 78 minutes and to over the rampage. But now they're calling it the Redeemer. The disrespect to Miro to call Ridge Holland's finisher the Redeemer. Miro must be spinning in his grave. And I say that because if he were alive, they'd never be able to get away with it. Well, that's actually great because he can be like, this my god has forsaken me once again. He has given Ridge Holland my name as a finisher. Mashi was perfectly crumbulent. I'll just put it that way. It was too long. It just never got out of the gear it started in. It was just one of those. And it's really, I was born as very new to NXT and Ridge Holland, I feel like, was at his best doing power moves. And they didn't really, I didn't get like a lot of Holy shit, Ridge Holland moments in this. Like it just, it was just the most match match that ever matched in a lot of ways. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing that was like, I just am waiting for it to pick up, but it didn't really do that for me. NXT TV matches are seven minutes long. This was twice. And for no reason, like it's not like it's the big feud-ender, like it's continuing the story. Like, Ridge beat him, beat him pretty clean. I mean, I think entirely. At one point, he was going to use the steps and hit him on the outside and then Thea Hale put her hands on the steps and looked at him like, no, don't do it. And he's like, no, Thea Hale, you remind me so much of my small daughter that I can't hit Bradley, I was born with these steps. Because like I'm looking into the face of my own daughter, I don't like this. I don't like, I don't like Chase U. I don't like Ridge Holland, the character. And I don't like the storyline. So can we just please get to the end when I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't know, I don't know what this is. Yeah. The backstage to me also didn't really make sense with what we got here because he didn't use the stairs. And Thea was still so pissed off that Riley lost. No, she was pissed, she wasn't pissed off that Riley lost. She was pissed at Riley for not shaking Ridge's hand at the end because how can you say that Ridge is it the greatest man to have ever lived? I'm so mad at you. And then Duke's like, listen, I think Bradley might have a point. And then she's like, I'm so mad at these guys, I can't even I gotta leave. Because they because they don't accept Ridge Holland fully at this point. And I understand why. Except them. Except him has what is my thing? Like, is he trying to be a student? Like, that's, I'm pretty sure you have to accept him if he enrolls in your school and pays tuition. Like, just, you know, did he apply? Like, except him into what is a big barrier for me on this. André Chase asking what was going on. I was like, Oh, that's Alex every Tuesday. But I had assumed before this, it was leading to Ridge versus Sean Spears, or Ridge and Sean Spears versus Duke Hudson and Riley Osborne. Riley Osborne and Miles Borne, right? Yes. Miles, he Riles Borne. Yes. I don't see Riles Borne forever getting those confused. So it feels now like they just switched that up on us, which is fine. Sean Spears has to be a chair provert about other things. But there's zero, zero chance it was this short. You know, that scene in Airplane where the woman just keeps talking and everyone commits suicide because you won't shut up. That was me watching this match. If you were just going to walk in the ring and I'd be hanging from the roof of the plane. That's how that's how long it felt. What was that? Cephas amazing. Cephas, by the way, head researcher for Sour Grabs went back and watched and got bell to bell time. We got to start paying Cephas. You're promoted. That's just amazing. We're not paying you anything, but you're promoted. That's right. Right. It wasn't, it wasn't, it was the main guy. It wasn't a woman who was, who am I talking, who am I thinking of? Am I thinking of Airplane too? I apologize. But thank you, Jake. You know, it was the main guy. It was Robert Hayes. Yeah, it's just, it's just in the mud. Like, they screwed up the story so out of the gate with Rich Holland that nobody knew whether he was a killer or a face by the end of it. And now he's supposed to be a face trying to get into chase you who is already faces. But now there's dissension. Like it's just, it's a mess. It's really messy. And there's a lot of really talented wrestlers involved. And it would be cool if the creative made sense. Yeah. The good, the good, the good bros to an interview. Carl Anderson is very upset with the blurry boys for ducking them. Yeah. Sorry, they were too fast, bro. But I mean, I think most of their offense is just them running at you and then ducking your clothesline and then running the ropes even more, more ducking and then like a running drop kick. I think that's most of the offense. For who? For the blurry boys? Yeah, there's ducking. They're literally ducking. They run at you and you try and close them and then they duck. I mean, that that's more the defense of it all, I would say. Well, I mean, it's part of it. It's part of their offense. They have to, they have to get up enough speed that they can hit you with with running drop kicks. And in, in, in as such, they must then duck. That is fair. They should become the mighty ducks. The good bros defeat Idris and Malik because Brindley Reese, someone should tell Idris in a favor. They already got a king of the ring because you don't need to come out wearing the phone called the crown and the robes and everything. It's as weird as Gunther. He's the king of the ring. But you don't wear the crown. So that's, you know what? Fair enough. Brindley Reese's at ringside and apparently they think that's a good luck charm, but it is until Ederson of a gets knocked off the the apron and lands on her and then reacts as though she has died. I'm gonna lie, it kind of pops me. It's reaction kind of pops me. So after that happens, the the good brothers win via a magic killer or as Booker T called it Magic City, baby. It's just not the name of the move. No, it is not nor is it where good gallows and Anderson are from. They're not from Miami. That's Magic City. I don't what we're doing here. And then after they won, the blurry boys run in an attack. The good brothers and then say, well, we're not ducking you. We will face you at Battleground. I can't wait for how much Booker T's gonna not know about Ethan Page. He's gonna be like, he was a part of a tag team called the East. And he's completely ego Ethan Page. This was this was a fair point when you were saying like they're just running super fast. They got to keep up the blur. Yeah, that's true. It's like it's like solar power. No, I get it. Not enough. I'm not I'm not arguing with you. I like this from MD Cyclo. My wrestling friend who takes one regularly has perished on the floor. Somebody call medical. It really was a bit much. But I like it. I know. I will say, I don't love this gimmick because I don't think they in my opinion, what we've seen from Idris and Malik. The best work they've done is character based and not gimmick based. And this is very gimmicky. However, at least, and it's a rare day in NXT, the losses mean something and are like caused by a thing. You know what I mean? Like there's so many times it's just like you lost a bunch, but we're still gonna say you're great. It's like at least these losses play into who they are a little bit. So that's a need. Cam Watson says, I don't get to watch wrestling live due to work. How come I haven't heard of these Ederson O'Fay guys going through the tag titles? They're on every show. Idris and O'Fay. They are. They are. But they're not going for the tag titles, but I get your joke. It's an old one, but I love it. It's one that that Ali genuinely thought. Idris and O'Fay and Malik played. That's a trio. That's not a tag team. Yeah, they should be going for a six man belt. They should go for six man belts. Idris and O'Fay and Malik. I also, I wish I could know the proper pronunciation because I don't like mispronouncing people's names, but Vic Joseph was saying an off A today. And I was like, wait, is that what it is? I don't want to be wrong, but he's changed it a couple times. But the the accent marks over the E right? It's it's whatever we have been saying and whatever they have been saying now for several years. You don't get to change it now. Remember they changed Omos? It was it was it was Omos and then it was Omos and then it was Omos and that happened in three weeks when he first debuted. Okay, fine. But you don't get to do it now after we you've been around here for two years. It was giving me Mustafa Mustafa. I just want to make sure I'm pronouncing people's names right? All right. Fine. That makes sense. Either page tweeted. I guess I look to that trick. Well, there you go. You see, he's he's he's the type of guy to actually call attention to the fact that the saying makes no sense. There it is. Perfect. So here we go. Roxanne Perez comes out and says, how dare I I'm the only one who has any respect for this title. How dare you make me find out who my opponent is like this? I will say about this promo. I like that she calls attention to the fact that she was like the only one that wanted to get it back. So everybody else got called up. But she's the only one who continued to chase it. Tiffany lost it had a rematch moved on. Lyra obviously got called up right away and I was like, well, good for her for at least referring to the completion of her arc. But yeah, then it was Rodney Dangerfield. I don't get no respect. Mm hmm. And then. Now, all we knew per Corey was that Tegan Knox was going to come down for an extended run. Yes. And then and then he was tweeting out Tegan Knox gifts being like, hey, everybody, I'm not saying anything, but I might be saying something. You know how he learned it from Sean. It's fine. Um, uh, I learned it from you. All right. I learned you watching you. I learned it by watching you. So that's that's how he's learned to tweet, uh, you know, cryptic things, cryptic gifts. Um, but it was not Tegan Knox that Ava brought out. It was Jordan Grace, which, uh, which was a shock. Yes. I think a great one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think this woman's division has just had a bunch of people called up to the main roster, a bunch of people in a tournament. And a couple of people that are injured, Corey Jade, the key to lions, uh, J.C. Jane had her face broken. Right. Um, and they're just depleted right now. So a champion versus a champion from outside company and that champion being Jordan Grace Roxanne Perez versus Jordan Grace. Are you kidding me? Like, sign me up for that any day of the week. I'm sure. Well, right. It just, it, but it is like it is a, it is a weird referendum on what you purport over and over again to be the greatest division, women's division in all of wrestling that like I'm excited for it, but it would be one of those things of like, this is why you, this is when you see, this is a great, I'm, I'm very happy we're getting the match, but when you do the match and what it says about why you're doing the match is important. If Roxanne is out here saying, I've beaten everybody, everybody, you've laid it. If Roxanne's been champ for nine months and beaten all the top women in the division, then you bring in Jordan Grace to face her. That, like, that's the story that makes sense. If she's like, who's my opponent? And you were like, well, we couldn't find anybody in house. So we went out and got somebody else. When you haven't actually put any of these other women in front of her, like, like, I mean, I'm not saying I'd rather see Thea Hale versus Roxanne Perez, but like, you could easily have beat Thea Hale, who's a former challenger for the women's championship to face Roxanne. But instead, you keep telling me that you have the greatest women's division in history. And then you had to go elsewhere to find somebody, which belies the thing that you're telling me. Like, it's just, that's the only problem. To me, it's like how every wrestler calls themselves the best wrestler in the world. That's my thing. And the only Bret Hart is like, every wrestler calls themselves the best in the world. But it'd be weird if like, the company said, you are the best wrestler in the world. We're stripping you off the title, because you're not good enough. Like, you know, like, that would, that would, that kind of, whatever, meet Norma says, I live a mile from a firehouse. When I heard sirens, I looked out the window for a sec, then I dropped a chicken wing. Is that Jordan F and Grace? It wasn't the vice is there. Tony chicken during women's matches, band people get real mad for no reason, man. Dream Ninja says, I can only hope the WWE repays the favor to TNA when Roxanne beats Jordan. Grace needs to pin someone from WWE, or AJ Styles from versus Josh Alexander, LFG. Now I love the idea of AJ Styles going to TNA and getting a title match, which he will then lose. But it is like, man, I, I, this is the, this is the rare time that I'm hoping for some kind of weird non-finish. Because I don't think either of them should beat each other. You know what I mean? Like, I wouldn't mind if Jordan Grace is signed to the company and like, she beats Roxanne to become the champion fine, but like, it just, it's a weird thing. We're like, it's an exhibition with two, two champions. And one of their titles is on the line, not the other one, not neither of them, which you can easily do. It's just our champ versus your champ. Let's see who's the best neither titles on the line. Roxanne's title is on the line. Jordan Grace comes in and I'm, I'm sorry, I'm like, I, I would certainly put money by a bet online on, on Jordan Grace to beat Roxanne Perez as currently constructed their characters and what we've seen of them. But yeah, I, I would love if, uh, Roxanne retained in some sort of sneaky way and there was a rematch on, on TNA, that would be a cool thing to do. I'll sit and, and watch what they do. Well, right. They rarely have clean finishes under normal circumstances. I'm sure TNA is protecting their, their prize jewel. Um, the chat that asked about Gail Kim before, uh, so much of the knockouts, multi, I mean, what multi-decade at this point, success, they've, they've always been the leader in women's professional wrestling for a very, very long time. And so much of that is because of her. Should we chip away at some of these other super chats? Yes. Yeah. I was about to, about to hit all those, uh, the, the, uh, TNA ones. Um, Tim Winteringer said this NXT was very therapeutic for me. Just found out my grandma, who was 97, is going into hospice care for the next couple of days. Um, I'm very sorry about your grandmother. Um, Tim Winteringer. Um, and, but happy that the NXT could be therapeutic for you. Um, always. And that's certainly something that, uh, I wish we had read that when Sean was here cause, um, certainly resonates with the, the Fightful fam a little bit. I'm so sorry that you're going through that, but very happy that you can hang out here and get some relief. Um, Ricardo, who's a 39 month member, says, listen, if I don't hear, say his name and he appears, what are we even getting excited for? I love the, the go ahead and Dre. Of anybody that could comment. First of all, because his gimmick is so silly, people forget he's a big dude. He could beat some ass. If there's anybody who can immediately get over with this NXT crowd, Joe Henry is it? Yeah. Um, so, uh, Jambeard says moose versus oba. No, thank you. Hard pass next. Line drive says biggest TNA, WWE crossover potential father, daughter skits with Santino and Ariana. Oh, hard pass. Thank you. Uh, Jim Beard says Santino to show up to Ava and, and HP top to ABN, HBK, and they get air interrupted by Ariana Venti who, who then maintains she's never seen this man before in her life. Honestly, I would, I would. That's my addition to it. Otherwise, I have no time for it whatsoever. And Kim Gray says, we need Santana and Ariana. Grace P's please. I don't know why you were all asking for these things that are going to make me angry. Um, To make you angry. To make you angry, buddy. Yeah. Well, she is. I never, I never once even cracked a smile at Santino. Uh, Corey David says this was UPN, WWE tonight. And I love it. It's crazy. Um, shotgun, shot kid, uh, says, uh, try to be Debbie Downer on TNA, WWE, but until WWE TKO proves otherwise, I'm always going to be wary of their working relationships. I want to be proven wrong, but history, even written history isn't on their side. Love you guys. Yeah, I, I, I don't, I don't know. People are like, okay, well now all of a sudden you're going to like, you can meld, you can put TNA and NXT that rosters together. It could be, it could be a whole separate thing. And then, and then people like fantasy booking crazy stuff that we have no indication is on, is on the horizon at all. Yeah, I would say let's, let's go one beat out of time with it. I, the reason I feel like the tracks might be greased for something bigger is just because that 20th anniversary show was coming up. Like it would, it would make sense that they would try and go get some of the staples of TNA impact for that. Um, and this is, this is fun. I'm all for it, but that you're right to be wary. Look at the, the relationship that they just had, like we're expanding our presence into Japan. And then they were like, Charlie Dempsey is going to be one of your prized possessions. And this is not going to go well. Like it's tough. Yeah. Uh, Nicholas seven sixty three says, at this point, what do you think main events battleground? And do you see any chance at all Jordan wins? I personally don't, I don't think you went. No, but that's your main event for sure. Uh, I, I mean, I don't know if it's for sure. Um, I just, I don't know if it's for sure. I mean, I, I would choose it to main event, but I don't think it's for sure that it's the main event. You think trick and you can page now? I, I think trick is the, is the NXT world champion. And I, I think that they probably will default to that main eventing of a PLE. Yeah. I think that there, there's a very good chance they default to the world champion. I would, it looks like defending against a AEW guy who jumped ship and came to NXT. I feel like they default to that being the main event. I'm not saying I would choose it. I'm saying that would, that would be a thing that they would default to. Assuming it's, it's Ethan and they've already put his picture up all over everything. So good for him. It seems like he's going to be like face of the brand stuff. Yeah. Die Jack is such a little shit. I, I, that, that doesn't feel like it's off base that that would main event thing because that's a very big deal. That's a very, very big deal. Um, wrestling guru says battle ground has three women's matches. Yes, it does. Um, and I don't see a reason why rocks versus Jordan shouldn't main event that show though because the UFC stuff maybe Shayna will and that's fine too. That'll be the men's match I think. Um, they could do the co-main event thing and that one is actually to me kind of fair. Like that, that actually feels like a co-main event where it's like new guy who's a huge deal just signed up to fight your men's champion special attraction coming over from an inter promotional bout with one of your most established women's champions. I'm fine with that co-main event thing. Just don't make it a triple bait event. Luis saying, uh, I can see the NXT title match being trick versus Ethan versus no-am. So trick can pin no-am and then you get Ethan versus trick down the line. Wouldn't hate that. I mean, I don't love no-am dart taking pins, but he's not being built into. Oh, he's, he's definitely taking pins. Like, like, that's, let's- Doesn't mean I like it. I understand. You don't, you don't have to like it, but like, like, if you, if you put him in the ring and you look at them with, with the glasses worn by the people who run WWE and you look at Ethan Page and trick will- Oh, for sure. And no-am-dar who's taking the pin in that match. So- No, and honestly, in that match, she should. I just, in general, would like him to, to win more things, but I'm also kind of mad at him because it feels like there's a spot in the metaphor that's been open. And I haven't even been contacted to be a part of it. It makes you really tough. Yes. And, and you should be at this point. It's completely in shambles. We got two of them that have been, like, been attacked backstage. They can't do anything. Jakara Jackson and last legend don't even like each other. Or at this point, it's like a meta one and a half. I'm right here. And I've been campaigning. Yeah. No super Bobby Lashley. Wrestling with movies wants a returning Becky leading a TNA lady faction. There's a really awesome thing they could do that they'll never do. But, like, Becky appearing to have signed with TNA, but because they have a working relationship, she's just over there working matches for a while, but she's actually under contracted WWE and then comes back like six weeks later. I don't think they'd actually and it would do that. But it's Becky would love to work a whole bunch of different women and be kind of fun. I'm sure TNA would love to have her on their program. Yeah. I think everywhere would. She posted, I think, on Instagram that said, like, she's she's coming home or whatever. So I think I think she's probably taking a break. Eddie Thorpe cuts a promo in front of a fire. Yes. I'm happy he's back. I don't need a lot of I don't need more fire fire fire promos. So yes, and I don't want to take it too lightly because it was there was like a lot of stuff about the symbolism of it and ancestral roots and stuff. I just feel like we get so many fire promos these days wrestling. Yeah, I feel it as well. Bear Corbin's burning ships out here. It's a lot of fire. But I'm very glad he's back. He's an incredible wrestler. I do appreciate that this vignette gave us like a little bit deeper of a dive into his heritage. And I can't wait to watch him come be people. Are you Ethan Page versus Eddie Thorpe? Are you kidding me? Sign me up for that. Yeah. I said a thing on last night or a couple nights. Whatever it was. I think it was maybe after double or nothing of Ricky Starks. If he left and went to WWE that he probably was starting the main roster, but he would be a guy who showed up in NXT and you groom him immediately to be the guy to take the title off of trick and he's the new face of your company. And there's not doing it with Ricky Starks, but Ethan Page is a fantastic option for that as well. And like he's, I am so angry with everybody in a WR way. Did not see how what an amazing talent that guy is. And that's the kind of guy that like you're you'll look at where he is, how he's positioned and what he's doing in NXT in six months and everyone over in AEW should literally be kicking themselves. Yeah, stand in a circle and kick each other in the shins. Pass the blame around the circle for why you didn't use that guy better because he's gonna be a friggin star in NXT. Yeah, and probably on the main roster. He's he is one of the most complete wrestlers I've ever seen. Oh, eventually he will be a huge. He'll be he has the potential to be like an LA Knight sneaky really over, but they're never actually gonna do anything with him. Kipe a guy on the main roster, but he's for sure an amazing NXT champion. Just spelled him. Just give the guy a bow. Ariana Venti tries to talk a little out of an XC underground, but Lola does not want to do that. Yeah, that was. It feels to me that the device would like to kick somebody's ass at all times. So Lola Weiss has a match versus Ariana Grace and Ariana Grace apparently was she was like challenged her to a match and then she said, Oh shit. Yeah. So then they have the match. It's it is it's it's fine. It's I like Ariana being very scared of Lola Weiss and she's very good at playing that. But the problem I have with it is I'm watching this match and I should be just able to watch this absolute killer face the comedy lady and appreciate it, but I have to listen to like Booker T making that sounds the whole friggin thing and and Vic Joseph at one point says, Come on, man. If you stood up right now, the table would flip over. That's a thing he said on television, Vic Joseph talking about basically for those you don't understand the very, very subtle metaphor he's using in that statement. Vic Joseph is saying that Booker T has an erect penis while watching Lola Weiss matches. Vic Joseph sits next to him for several hours on Tuesday, so he would know, I suppose. Well, if he has one for several hours, he needs to get that addressed. If he needed help with one, Lucie.com quote, Fightfall for sure. It's a thing he said. It's a thing he said. The thing he said, go back and listen to it, that's what he said. If that stood up right now, the table would flip over. That is what he said. Uh, match was super fun. I actually really liked this. It was kind of fun to see Ariana get her ass kicked a little bit. Like she's she's very fun, but at the end of the day, heels are supposed to make you want to see them get their ass kicked. And watching Lola like play with her like she was a toy was very, very fun. Like I've pointed this like the Ariana's facial expressions are out of control. And there were a couple times where she was being dragged into the middle of the ring from the corner just like I was howling and put my commentary on mute shortly after the erecting. I, yeah, I, I'm not saying like, obviously, I think that there's only one Billy Kay. Yeah. You got to be joking me is still one of the funniest things anybody's ever gotten over as a catchphrase and backstage interviews. I think she's amazing. That whole bit where she was like, up the resume, that whole thing. I, it was amazing. Um, I thought the Iconics were really fun, but they never use them really properly. Um, there's, there's a place in wrestling for, for lady comedy heels together. Yes. And listen, I, I also love Piper, but you could do things with her Piper that, that are not what she's doing with Chelsea Green. Correct. Chelsea Green and Ariana Venti together is, is an amazing act. They never have to hold the titles, but every backstage segment they do would be absolute gold. Both of them trying to tag each other to get out of like things that it would be, there would be so much fun. I think that's the ultimate thing that you do with Ariana Venti. I think they proved it in that one scene they had together. Oh my God. Just friggin do it. You're better than everyone. I was howling at that. My goodness. But yes, this went exactly the way it should have. Like this was one of those ones where you were like, it's predictable from how it's going to turn out. I know what the match is going to look like. And it absolutely should. Like this is, this is one of those. And it was, it was perfect. It was perfectly good. Yeah. Um, hey, Alex, what about the bird lady, almost winning Queen of the Ring? Yeah, like the Indiana Pacers, almost winning the Eastern Conference Finals. Sure. Right. Great. Go to bed. It's like 5 a.m. Be asleep. You've got scoops to get you coward. Um, Kalani Jordan defeated Renson Claire and the very last qualifier. Yes. Again, this is number 10 versus number 12 in the rankings. So didn't make a whole lot of sense, but there was no danger. You had three gold stars. You placed third. You won a Pizza Hut Booket pin. Yeah. Yeah. That combine didn't make sense. Yeah. Um, uh, Kalani Jordan, um, was always going to win this match. Yes. Um, I would have liked it. It's like the, the combine was like three weeks ago. I would have loved it if Renson Claire had been given literally anything to do during the time period. So it wouldn't like look like this match was just basically a forfeit. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like everyone knew Kalani was getting into it. But if you had done something with Renson Claire, maybe you have her come up to Kalani Jordan said, Hey, um, looks like in a couple of weeks, we're going to be facing each other for a spot in the ladder match. Um, and I just want to let you know, I don't, I, I hold you, you know, ill will whatsoever or whatever. And they can actually, I wouldn't mind if this thing became because they had a connection, like a friend versus friend thing, but obviously only one of us can win. Like something for Renson Claire at all would be great if you're going to give her one of the top 12 spots here, but they did nothing with it. So, you know, agreed. That was good. I have a wrestling question for you and it, I don't know if you have the answer. It might be suited for a wrestler. I can bug some. Um, what is the advantage of a split legged moonsault over regular moonsault? Um, I would say if you watch, if you watch, um, like Johnny, what's he now, Johnny TV? But John Morrison. Yes. Like his, the Starship pain, he just doesn't have to be twisty. But if you drop and get that spring, you know, you, you flip over so much faster, especially if like, if you watch, um, because you're so close to the ring ropes, like if you EO does hers, her moonsault for crazy distance. Yes. Really, a heart does hers for crazy height, but they're all, they're both like a slower thing. If you watch a split legged moonsault, it goes bing. And so your, your lower body is going in such a velocity that when it lands, hopefully on target and your thighs hit the midsection of the person you're doing it to, it should theoretically hurt more because of the velocity. I don't know if it does, but I'm watching it going, that gets a lot of torque on it. And so I assume that's why. That makes sense. Thank you for answering my question. Also, the way you said the velocity a lot reminded me of the tag team, the velocities who are great, and everybody should let them up. But I appreciate you explaining it. Excellent. They're great. They're probably the best on site, unsigned tag team in the world that isn't like G by V or whatever. Right. Um, so hold on, uh, Corey, because I'm getting, can I'm getting a scoops skate. It seems like your, your being discussion in the chat is what it feels like. So maybe go get your scoops and head out of here partner. Um, so I think Jordan is great, by the way. Yes, she's great. She's in the ladder match. And like, the only reason I think she's probably not winning the North American title is because they have done zero. Nothing. Nada to make me think that she's an important character in this, just that she's going to do some cool stuff in the ladder match. Yeah. I feel like it, I feel like it, that all six people in this ladder match should have an equal shot at winning it. And right now, I feel like there are two that probably could, you know? So I don't know, like, Mi Chin's not, but I should feel like she, she really, really wants it. So you build the story around that. Kalani Jordan should be a, if a baby face is going to win it, Kalani Jordan be a great opportunity for her to win it. That'd be a really cool thing for her, but they've done nothing with that. Fallon Henley hasn't been around in a couple of weeks. I thought for sure we get a Fallon Henley thing, but like, not that. But I think she could easily win that. I would rather it be somebody who's been around for a while be the first NXT North American champion. But like, Jada Parker's out here on commentary for one of the matches. And I feel like they're going to put put it on Jada Parker because they're making a big deal with her. But I feel like she's very new. And I kind of wanted to be somebody who's been around for a couple of years. The problem is, all of a women got called the main roster. >> I feel like Fallon Henley is a shot. >> I hope, I hope she does. >> I think I really do. >> I would like it. I would much rather it be her than Jada Parker, not because I don't like Jada Parker or think she's very good. I just wanted to be somebody who's been toiling away for a while, because had they not been called to the main roster, I think Blair to have important piano James or your top two people to be the North American champion. If it was either of them, I wouldn't have a complaint at all. >> I think it should be Fallon Henley, because I also think she needs it. I don't think Jada Parker actually needs it. >> Thea Hale lost to Fallon Henley, so Thea Hale is not in the letter match. >> So she'll chase for it. >> Yeah. >> Fallon Henley with her decision. >> So it would be great. The thing about it with Soul, if Soul is going to be up on the gun on the ladder, and then she's going to do a Soul Snatcher off the ladder, which is going to cost her the match. She's going to be the one who does the crazy thing off the ladder that ends up, it's like, well, someone's going to climb up after me unless I do this. We boom, and then I hurt myself. You know what I mean? >> Corey thinks he can't get timed out, isn't that cute? >> I didn't. >> Carly, I don't know if you know this, but you certainly do after this vignette. Carly Bright was a cheerleader for the University of Minnesota. >> I am familiar. >> Hi, man. I don't know. This makes me actively dislike her, even though I'm sure she's a very nice person. You know what I mean? >> I think that's why you actually dislike her. >> But it's just like, I was a cheerleader. Look how peppy I am. I don't like people like that. Like that energy bugs me. >> Right here. >> Not because I know I know the dark soul that goes with me. >> I had to turn and dig deeper and find the darkness within me so that I could join sauerkraps. I'll say this much. These feel like college admission videos or something like they don't read the way, but I actually can't really tell you what to do better with them. I'm very relieved that these are, no, Corey, no, we're already way the fuck over on time, sorry. Unless you have a scoop, if you have a scoop, let me know and you can come on. If it's just a harass, we have to save it for later. I'm glad it's not like somebody has a job and are a wrestler now. So many of these were. So many of these were. >> And backstage after the vignette, which lets us know that she was a cheerleader. We see a bunch of other women who look just like her standing around watching her vignette. >> They were all in your versions of me. >> They were all between 5 foot 6 and 5 foot 8, all blonde, all the exact same tanner applied, and I'm including Natty in this. Natty just looks like the house mom of the sorority. They all pledge the same damn sorority, and then Izzy Dame walks in, the only thing given about her is that she's about a foot and a half tall than the rest of them. And then they get into a brawl about who's the blondest. I don't know. It was just a weird thing to watch all of these look like carbon copies of each other. There was a woman who was like had her arm around Carly Bright, who I've never seen before, or maybe I have. I don't know, but she looks just like everybody else who's standing there. And it feels like it's just just painting with a big brush, and the brush's color is blonde girl. >> Well, there's nothing wrong with being a blonde girl who likes to start conflicts. There's nothing wrong with that, Alex. But it was, I noticed that too, I was like, you know what the evolution chart was? I kind of felt like that, but it was just shades of blonde. There's this really funny line in the Mean Girls musical where she goes, she said my hair was blonde, but it's actually dark blonde, or something. That is what this 100% felt like. >> There was one blonde who was not actually in this scene. That's Stevie Turner, who was in Ava's office with Robert Stone as well, who was just, I guess, in there incidentally, not involved in this. But she says, listen, Ava, I don't understand why Jordan Grace gets a title shot, and I don't. I'm like, well, listen, you can be like, I think somebody from the next scene should get a title shot, but why use? I've been busting my ass on level up for weeks now. It's like, okay, well, there's your first problem. >> You're not on the show? >> No. So that's a problem. I'm glad that you've been doing some work on level up, thank you. But anyway, Jordan Grace walks in and says, I'll face you in the ring next week. And so we get Jordan Grace on a regular ass episode of NXT. Not on the tape, but a regular ass episode of NXT. Against a woman we haven't seen wrestle on NXT since she had one match when she was doing the hacker gimmick, or whatever it was, the podcaster gimmick. >> The podcaster gimmick, and then I scared her off. >> She was a twitcher. >> She was a twitcher, but then I cut promos on her right here on this very program, but I scared her off of being a podcast streamer. And I said, if you come in here with your fingerless gloves and your super chets, Nicky Turner, Stevie Turner. >> Stevie's gimmick was computer stuff, but it's not, it's not anymore. >> She got injured very shortly after that started. >> Like very, very shortly after that started. So they kind of just wiped the slate clean with her, which is fine. >> So Miles Bourne at Damon Camp and Charlie Dempsey are all lifting weights very aggressively. And then Charlie Dempsey like tells Damon Camp, you're wrestling for the cup next week, Kapish. But he's like way up in his face. He's like, hold on, he's like, he's like, you're wrestling for the cup next week, Kapish. And Damon Camp is like, yeah, I get so, no, no, no, say it. Kapish, right, Kapish. And I was like, that's a bit much, it's a bit much, you know what I mean? >> It is a bit much. You're Blair, which project for enactment of it though? >> Beautiful. >> That's how close Charlie was to Damon. That's what I will say. >> They were very close. And Charlie Dempsey was very upset that he lost his hair in the cup. He was like, something is missing. >> So yes, then we get the family backstage sitting around a little dining room, a little cafe table in the backstage area for some reason. >> Why wouldn't they be? >> I don't know, it's funny. So then Tony walks in and he's like, hey, so apparently Damon is going to be wrestling next week. But I don't know if I trust that, Charlie Dempsey guy, as far as I can throw him. Hey, boss, why would you trust him at all? That guy's about his solid as a bag of wet cement. He says, Luca, have you looked into the fine print on that, no quarter catch clause or whatever? That says any of them can wrestle. Yeah, I'm going to make sure I go through all of it tonight. Okay, good. We're going to beat them at their own game. And I was like, are you going to have stacks defend the cup? Because don't have stacks defend the cup. You should defend the cup. You're a way better wrestler than the two guys who work under you. Just you should defend the cup. I don't understand what this all is, but I am happy to see Tony D'Angelo list. Also, that does feel very mobstery to make like the underlings do this. Oh, sure. However, they don't have like a giant guy who works for them who will fight Damon Kemp. They have like, they should have a giant guy. They should have a giant guy. That's the one thing missing from this picture for me is like, they should literally they should be going around to all of these anti aisle signs, finding a dude, six foot 10, who is willing to grow his hair out and darken it and slick it back and can do a Brooklyn accent or a Chicago accent or whatever. Like you got, we got to find Tony D, a big dude. Let's find him. Like go out that casting call. He needs one. For all your contract needs, chrisafinolaw.com. It's a real website. Like this is, this is very, this is honestly, this is funny, but like that's a dream team. Tony D'Angelo with Big Bill is a frigging dream team. Oh my gosh. They would be so good together. They really would. Like Big Bill would cut his hair a little bit, but he's got the perfect voice for it, the perfect size. Oh, oh, good. It would be so great. Hey, Don't they Jen? Certainly it's a nice guy. He seems lovely. That was my takeaway from the vignette. Yeah. I was like, he just seems very nice, which means he'll never get anywhere in this poor guy, but he does have a manager to advocate for him now. So maybe he will. Well, it does he, because that guy wasn't out there for his match tonight. Yeah, that was weird. So I don't think there's he and Rob are starting to even working together anymore. It's weird that he would go out there for his match. Anyway, there's a vignette about how, you know, what a great amazing thing it was. I first sing a porn wrestler and WWE all this up. Then it's him and Hank and Tank and another big guy. Maybe that guy could shave his beard because can he do a mobster accent. There was a big guy back there. I've never seen him before. I don't know what he's doing. Anyway, Lexus King says that was a fluke blah, blah, blah. Like I could prove I beat you with it. It wasn't a fluke when you want to have this match. And Dante Chen says tonight. So they do it. And Dante Chen beats him again with a little roll up. And after the match, Lexus King says, well, I don't like how you do beat me two times in a row. So I will get my revenge on you. Here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to throw you out. I'm going to beat on you for a little while, attack you while the ref has your hand raised. And then I'm going to beat on you for a little while. I'm going to roll you to the outside and I am very dastardly healed. I'm going to pull up the padding on the outside of the ring, revealing the concrete floor below. And then I, the dastardliest villain of all time, Lexus King, will do my finisher not on the concrete. I will actually do it on the part where I pulled the padding up and laid it on top of other padding. So I will do my finisher to you on two layers of padding, which is so dastardly. Like, what are we, you pulled up the padding, it didn't do your move on the, on the, on the concrete. What are we, why he was like, I am going to cost this ring crew so much time and a little bit of money for no reason. When I tell you I was laughing so hard at that. And then Vic Joseph goes, he's a loose cannon. As you said, they never said he was a smart cannon. We've never said he was the smartest cannon in the cannon shed. Okay, just a loose one. Just a loose one. Not that he might as well have done it on a mattress. Yeah, it was so much softer. I, when he, he said it's so dead serious too. And I'm just watching like, he planted him on the, the double. I was, there was, there was a seven feet of concrete. He couldn't cut it to him on, but he literally pulled him up into the thing and did it to him onto the padding. And I just, what are we doing? It was so, and Vic Joseph just, this guy's a loose cannon. So much fun pack about that one. That's true. This is like, remember when Jericho fell onto the pillows from the top of the cage? That's, that's how he got planted. So it felt like when we got these vignettes from Brian Pelman Jr. Now Lex King, slidey, throne men. Yeah. Like he was resisting being the loose cannon. And then it felt like we were turning towards, he's becoming that. Now it feels like we got there with like a six month gap of not doing that where he was just sleazy to girls and had bad facial hair in between. What, what, what a detour Alex. I don't know. I don't know. So, we got a Josh Briggs vignette. And like, when I think of like, like old school film strips, I think Josh Briggs. Because I think, when I think of a like film school, like like, like an old auteur running one of those old things with like the, I think Josh Briggs, you know what I mean? Because that guy really screams film school student to me. Oh wait, no, the opposite of that. I didn't understand why they chose him to do this. You know what I mean? I'll give them credit for this. I was watching this the whole time being like, if he turns around and faces it, it doesn't go like this. Yeah, let's go find him. I like, he never did. And I give them credit for that. Yeah. Yeah, why was he dressed in normal clothes? This felt all sorts of, well, no, no, because he's, because he's a film school student, you know, going in to look at his project that he turned in to a film school in 1972, which is why it's on film. He also ended up like standing in front of the projector and like, so like the projector was like right on his back as he was looking at the wall. But from where he was and how close there's no way anything was projecting onto the wall that he was looking at because he was blocking the projector. So I don't know. But I mean, like he says, I, he like, let us like, so I got recruited. It did NXT in 2020. And it really couldn't figure out what I was doing. So I found a little brother and then a little sister. And then we don't know that brother version for like six months. Yep. Basically, the whole deal was that my little brother was a virgin who would never kissed a girl before. It was weird. For a while there, I wore two vests. I don't even know why. I don't know. It was weird. Sorry. And but they've lingered so long on the breakup after like, because they were all doing the little fist triple fist bump thing that they the shield thing that they did. And then found left first and then for a while, then then reserved there for a while and then double vest left and then it was just beach holding his thing there by himself. And they lingered on him for a long time. And I was like, we haven't seen Brooks Jensen, aka the beach in a very, very long time. I don't even know if this is supposed to be like more of like a hint that he's coming back. And I don't, I don't know, but but it was like a little like a refresher course on where he came from. But I don't know. And like, I don't really know who I am, but I'm gonna find it or whatever. Right. There are some things. And I think part of it is just that you and I watch a lot of wrestling, right? Yeah. But I there's a few things that I'm very sick of. One is people turning to the darker side. Two is people reflecting and rediscovering. Yeah. Like it back gets a little old. There was like, when AEW Homer, because you gave an example of whatever, when Daniel Garcia did it, and he discovered it through the arc of the tournament. That worked. But like these vignettes of like, I just don't know who I am. Yeah. Um, uh, then who should be watching this vignette? But Sean Spears, who's like, Hmm, yes. Well, that's that, uh, a little experiment I did with Ridge Holland works so well. Now that he's now now I've I've broken his mind. So he's trying to join a college, even though he's 35 years old. I shall do the same to Josh Briggs. Hmm. What dastardly plan could I come up with for Josh Briggs? Let me think. Perhaps I'll, I don't know what he would do. I'm like, what the like the idea that what happened to Ridge Holland after the Sean Spears feud? What is an equally stupid thing that could happen to Josh Briggs after feud with Sean Spears? Instead of like a steel chair, it's a wooden chair. No, good. Um, but also Sean, listen, listen, yeah, you can't be you can't be dastardly in a pastel purple vest. It can't it doesn't work. It's not a dastardly color. It's a it's a delightful history, springy, fresh color. You can't be dastardly a bit. No. Um, yeah. Uh, I will I will I will I will get into his mind and I will force him to overcome, overcome, overcome. I will influence him to start a frisbee golf league. Only three people will sign up. He'll be crushed. You know what I mean? Something like that. Is it that is that's how dumb it is? You know what I mean? I'll invite him on to my yacht and leave 15 minutes before he arrives. So, um, I wouldn't I don't mind a Josh, Josh Briggs in Sean Spears thing. No, that could be really good for him. But you actually have to do something with it. Unlike what you did with Ridge Holland, because that was nothing. That went to nowhere. So, uh, Wesley getting interviewed about his shot versus Obafemi and Obafemi coming out and being like, you have no chance. I will destroy you. And Wesley's like, everyone's been telling me that. You watch me. And I was like, I wish I wish everyone that you have faced before me is different than me. You know what I mean? Something like that. I don't know what he would say. But like the idea that like, yeah, everybody told me that I was too small to face all the big guys. And I want to know if I'm like, yeah, but I'm different than them because it feels like he is. Uh, he's the best. Yeah, that's all. Um, so, um, we saw Oromenza confronting Gallis backstage about them attacking. Um, how many backstage attack angles? This this this this many. Um, so, uh, Oromenza got attacked, uh, sorry, Oromenza in, in, in Lash and Jakara to confront Gallis about attacking Noam and like, we didn't do it. Didn't you say you did it last week? You basically said you, yeah, like you said you did it last week. I kind of felt like you said you did it last week. So this is why when Corey's like, they've been planning this Ethan Page thing for, for weeks now, like they have because it feels like they were planning that it was just Joe, it was just Joe Gallis and, uh, and also his brother, and also his brother Mark Gallis. Um, and, and Wolf Gallis, like Joe, Joe Gallis, Mark Gallis, and Wolf Gallis, the Gallis boys that they were the ones who tipped him out and then it was like, what if we did it on page? Honestly, that's a good idea that they came up with for Ethan Page, but it doesn't feel like it's been a while. It feels very weird. Um, uh, well, it doesn't always feel like the most planar thought through show. Yeah, it's whatever. So gout, like Joe Coffey said, um, if you're wondering why I took out Noam Dar, here's why. Like he didn't actually say I did it, but if you're wondering why, like, here's why I would have done it, but he basically said he did it. So whatever. Do you think Ethan Page is a part of Gallis? No, I do not. Um, so, uh, them saying they didn't do it. Oh my God. Who was this going to be? Because I didn't think there was a chance it was going to be somebody like friggin Ethan Page. Yeah, I thought it was going to be, you know, the other half of the personality of Ridge Holland. You know what I mean? Something that dumb, but it wasn't. So, uh, then Oromensa gets taken out later, and so he's taken out. No, I'm Dar is no where does not appear on the show at all. Sir, not appearing in this scene. And that's no, I'm Dar. So he's probably writing a paperwork to recruit me for the metaphor. Yeah. Um, so, uh, we, we get sexy red coming out with trick and javon. They meet backstage and are very sexy. She has an album coming out Friday. She has an album coming out Friday. We should remember everybody of that. Um, when they came out together, and then they ended up like, like they ended up sitting on the barricade and then like, oh, is she gonna do it? He's like, oh, there it is. Cause he's just sitting there like. I'm drooling. Yeah. So they mentioned thing. We don't know where they didn't know where Wolfgang was. Yeah. Did he get attacked somewhere? Is that the big reveal that like it wasn't gallows because one of them got attacked? We never saw him. Maybe he was just like sick. I don't know, but he wasn't there today. So they had Mark and Joe fight the match. Um, and at one point, Joe coffee goes for the belt. I guess to hit one of them with it. And then sexy red comes over and grabs the belt and wins a tug of war with Joe coffee, which I feel like is probably not what would have happened in a non-K fave world. I feel like Joe coffee probably wins that tug of war with sexy red. I think you're right. Unless he was so distracted by her charms. It's very possible. Hi, Daphne. Yeah, um, that could be it. I'm traveling in miles. Um, we, uh, we got trick Williams hitting a trick shot or trick me, whatever they call that now and getting a pinfall. And then, um, uh, Javan Evans and the sexy red leave sexy red and like lash legend are like cool with each other because it did feel like sexy red was was eyeing trick a little bit. And we know that lash has the hots for him in K fave, but also there actually a thing in real life. So I was wondering, are we doing a lash legend versus sexy red match at the heat wave? Is that where we're going with this? Because it felt like we might have, but apparently they're cool with each other. And then lashes is going to be like, I need you to tell me that you didn't attack Oro and, um, and no, um, it's like, oh, but, and then the thing goes black and it's like, and here it goes smell like I black. I mean, he did lose. He did lose a dynasty or die to whatever that would double or nothing. Do you know, maybe, but it wasn't him. It was, uh, he was eating page. And I was, I was genuinely shocked by this. Yes, as was I. Yeah, which is cool. Yeah, I, I, I, uh, onto Collins says, uh, dual screened vendor pump and NXT. My mouth is still open. I don't know about which over those two things though. Yeah. Was that something I'm banner pump rules or? Yeah. Uh, Mike from Indeed said Ethan Page hype. I am on well, Viva Hamilton, Ontario. All of that was in all caps. I believe it. I believe it. Thank you, Mike. Joe tool says, strap up ego and call up trick. I would not be surprised if that was the plan in July. Yeah. That one is surprising. Just yet, but I would not be surprised that was in the triple threat is a good way to stall to get there. If you're going to throw an oil in this to take the pen, run that back anyway. WWE Mark says, feel like I smoked angel dust and dreamed all that. Um, I can't speak for the first half of that, but I can't tell you it really did happen. And then it rules. Um, uh, Mike from Indeed says Ethan Page and NXT means I need to watch the sauerkraps pre-show. He means post show now. That dude made Dan Effing Lambert semi-watchable. How do you fumble him? Nobody made Dan Effing Lambert semi-watchable. He was anti-watchable, but that wasn't Ethan Page. He refers to NXT as the sauerkraps pre-show. Oh, okay. I appreciate that very, very much. Mike, yeah, I appreciate that. Uh, good. Um, yes, apparently there's an HBK new profile pick, which is just him as a chef. Which is what? Um, he's cooking. He's cooking. He was treated by the Fightful account before he posted it, by the way. Mm-hmm. Yeah. So I'm trying to be honest. I'm sure then he, he blocked them. Probably right click, save. Mm-hmm. Yeah. HBKcooks.png. Um, Ethan, Ethan Page is the kind of guy who could take over a place like NXT. Yes. He's, he's fantastic on the mic, really good in the ring. Ton of charisma. He's the kind, he's the kind of guy who runs NXT. Again, I think he's got all the talent in the world and could easily be a major star on the main roster and could have been in AEW and they just didn't do anything with him. But if they were to call him up, they could put a push behind him and make you into a big thing on the main roster. But like there, they are stopped starting all over the place with LA Knights. Yes. So like, what, what, why do I believe they would do the right thing and capitalize on the amazing immediate organic overness that Ethan Page would enjoy on the main roster? I don't believe they would, unfortunately. But I do think that they will, they are better at going, well, these 350 people here here who come here every week really love this guy or girl. Let's do something about this. They're better at that in NXT than they are on the main roster. So. Yeah, and it's, it's two hours a week versus five, right? So I understand why. I'll say this about Ethan Page. I've had a couple of interactions with him because he's technically currently still the champion of the independent promotion that I do commentary on. We've had some exchanges over the internet and I just can't say enough about the guy. From a human being perspective, from a work rate perspective, from an just stuff of he's the, the ex-site wrestling champion, right? And hey, can we get a post-match interview? Of course. Do you want me to keep the belt or do you want me to leave it with you? Like just a consummate professional makes all of his opponents look great, gives them all the same amount of time and attention, whether it's somebody at an independent show or I'm assuming somebody back stage at NXT or maybe WrestleMania someday. He is a wonderful, wonderful person to be around, disposition wise. And I can't say enough about his work. Like he, he really is a tremendous storyteller. He has the Kevin Owens gene of, okay, this isn't logical, but I can find something. I saw him do that on our way to 950 times and the six minutes he was there. Let me find the logic or let me make sure that the logic that is a little bit hidden is pulled out from people. He could do really wonderful things at NXT if they let him. And to your point, the main roster call-ups haven't been so great, not just with your early nights of the world, but Ilya lost to Juso, right? He's at least had some screen time. Why we're got a huge bush, but what is Keanu James doing as the pseudo assistant, Blair Davenport just got a vignette, even the draft fool, right? Where Shinsuke Nakamura, like Dragon Lee put about a milk carton at this point. So I would rather him have a legitimate push at NXT and be a top guy and then get called up with a plan than the seeming, we just, I digex hasn't been on TV, right? So like, those things, I don't need Ethan Page to get lost in the shuffle again, a third company. Sure. Louise telling us that despite being signed, Prestige Wrestling announced that Ethan is facing Shelton Benjamin in July. Hell yeah. So I guess he's got some dates that he's gonna keep sticking around for that rules. So we have some puns. We have some haircut puns. If you haven't gotten into pretense, we don't normally do this, but like we're 2.15 in, so don't tend anymore. We're done. No more. We have a few jukeboxes, we have 42 puns, we're gonna read those and get the hell out. Sefa says Ethan Page Boy, it's haircut puns. Cam Watson says Bob Van Dam, Curly Lashley, The Dread Man.

That's really good. Wrestling with Movies has a question. It's one of those like pick your poisons for me. Chase you or the learning tree. I feel like you would choose Chase you. I feel like I could choose Chase you. Yeah. That's how bad the learning tree is. Yeah. Because I you know what I you know what there's really nothing that Chase you has done that that has killed me yet. And they've been around for like four years. So I feel like I'm safe with them. But with Jericho, I just don't know. Yeah, I just don't know. You know what I mean? It's too dangerous. It could be any day now. Too dangerous. Okay. Tom LaValley says Luis Palito appreciation chat.
