It's a Saturday night, which means colliders assemble here on the Fightful YouTube channel. Ricky Uchino, Cressa Starr, Arridians got the night off this week. She could not be here for the one-year anniversary Cressa, like calm on. And I say that as somebody who's missed like 75% of the shows from October on, this was an actual moment. We have to have a celebration next week. We are going to put our little tiny top hats, all three of us and watching next week, one of us is like, yeah, actually my goldfish are drowning, so I can't do it. It always seems to be some kind of last minute thing. Look, this is, this is just goes to show Sean's great wisdom. He knows stuff happens on Saturday night. So that's why he assembled a three team panel thinking, okay, my odds are better that 66% of these guys are going to be available on a weekly basis. So hey, we're all here. We're a rotating commentary guest tonight. You got me. You got Cressa. We appreciate everybody who's joining the show. Get your super chats in. Get your helper chats in. Got a lot to talk about tonight. And we'll, we'll start off with patchy Rick sending in a humper chat, sending it in appropriately named humper chat to acknowledge Nigel's eating Brie line tonight. His ability to rib is Hall of Fame. Worthy. Yeah. Yeah. That was good. Nigel was on it. Nigel told Tony Shahani who was like, bro, that's, that's how facts work. He said, you could prove anything with facts, Tony and come at me with your facts. He was so flat. His flabbers were definitely gassed like, yo, how is this how, how, I feel bad for Tony Shahani working next that guy every week. Like, okay. So like here's my question, right? Who hates who more? Because you have Nigel and his obsession with Brian Danielson, but after watching Wade Barrett on commentary and the post show today, just ripping one into Phil from Chicago. I like, I seriously, I don't know who hates who more. I want to lean into Nigel just because like it's, it's, it's like an every week kind of thing with him, but man, Wade just cannot let some Nexus shit go. I mean, I too, I wasn't watching wrestling at the time personally, but I too would be a little bitter if one guy who no one saw but beat all five of us beat, beat my team. I, I, I too would have some resentment, but I am going to say it is Nigel only because Nigel's been calling this man all types of names, all types of clam diggers for a year. And at this point, from, yeah, for a year, because it is the year anniversary at this point, if it doesn't result in Danielson versus Nigel for the retirement match, loser has to go dig up some clams. I don't want it. So like, I know it's kind of like one of those lean in two things, but like I almost want the same thing with Wade Barrett. Like, if he's going to, if he wants to make this a thing, I, I want to see Barrett come off the commentary desk and wrestle one final time, like I'm like, I've always been wanting to see Barrett come out for the, the, the row rumble appearance, right? But like I want to see, like I kind of want to see him and punk throw down. Like I think there's so much that you could dive into there with the history of those guys, if they want to work with one another, that's always going to be a thing with, with the CM Punk, right? But regardless, it's, it's great. They're both fantastic on their commentary jobs, by the way. They're both great. They can stay there if they want. I agree. But I also feel that way about Nigel at this point, Nigel, I know you used to wrestle. I know you used to wrestle lace up those boots. Oh, man, put the magic cards away. I feel like it has to happen. I feel like it has to happen. So we do open up the show with the Blackpool Combat Club. They defeat Rocky and Leo and TMDK. First off, if it was sticking with the commentary theme, shout out to Tony Shivani because him shouting swing, like he used to do with sting, that absolutely popped me on this one. I don't, I, I'm not sure if that's the first time that he's done that or not, but that's the first time I heard it. And it was absolutely spectacular. And I love the fact that Claudio and Mox, who aren't like, you don't look at them as like the, like the earth giant, like the big show cane types. But the fact that they got to do the big show cane type spots with Leo Rush tonight because he's so, he's a we man, he's a, he's a tiny guy. That was great. That was a fun little finish where Claudio just said here, have this man and just chucks him up in the air and then Mox catches him and death valley driver. This one was over. I did think this was a, a fun opener that continues to make the Blackpool Combat Club look really, really strong, Krista. I feel like I didn't see Moxley at all in this match, especially when we came back from picture and picture when they had that big brawl and then Moxley came out of nowhere. It was just like beating everyone up. Leo Rush back in the E.W. continues to, is one of those things was like, why did we not do anything with him the first time around? He's so fast. He's so fluid. He's clearly not the same guy that he was before. I got to also give a shout outs to Wheeler, you just got back and him trading slap for slap with Rocky Romero. Also want to give a shout out one more time to the big splash on Moxley from Leo Rush. And I mean, it didn't really do anything to pick up to the toss over to the death valley driver on Leo Rush from John Moxley, the sauce thin. John Moxley is one of those people is like, you tell me I have to wrestle him. Must I die out of a rozo must I thunder roast you better give me the finger polka doom and I'm out, I'm on the floor. Yeah, no, no, no for sure, like having been in the ring for, you know, a period of time. I know I ain't tough enough to handle this stuff on a regular baby, let alone these people who actually lay their shit in like I couldn't even take a fake drop kick like let alone like actually like take an elbow or running, you know, clothesline from somebody F that like now I'm not working with someone with the softest hands in the game. Like a knicknam is golf ziggler apparently one of the pillow hands because I'd be hacked. Now man, I have to go in there against Dax the axe who's really going to hit you with them. Hell, no, no, frying pans for hands. Yeah. No, I'm good on that. I'm good on that. I think my only complaint about this match is the fact that Leo Rush was the one who ate the pen and then I wouldn't I wouldn't care. But like with the spot that Leo had at the end of it, you know, with the end of the show with him still being heavily involved, this is just a nitpicky thing on me. I think he could have gone with somebody else who could eat the pin in this situation. I think Shane Hayes could have eaten the pin because Mikey Nichols was really doing stuff or Rocky Romero, but Rocky Romero always give, give, give, give, yeah, he does. Yeah, he does. No, for sure. Make sure to get those super chats and get your Humper chats in guys. We really, really appreciate it, supports the fine team over here at Fightful. Thank you guys so much for the support guaranteed only way to get your comment read on the air and our excellent moderator Drew will make sure I read every single one of them some bitches before we get off the air tonight. Now, after the match, Mox grabs a mic and real quick shout out to Claudia. We all need a best friend like Claudia Ocastagnoli in this business. If you don't know what I'm talking about, you missed it and I don't need to dive into the details of it. But everybody needs a friend like this man. Mox grabs the microphone and says he's, he's not coming to Forbidden Door just to, just to have a match. He's not coming to just defend a championship. But no, he wants to murder and bury a man at Forbidden Door in, in, in Naito. This is his last shot at the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship. And he is going to end this man. I was taught, I forget who I was talking about. Ah, I want to say this is my, oh, yeah, no, no, I, okay. So my quick little story here, my GM at the radio station was flying back two weeks ago from Salt Lake City and he's sitting up in first class and the guy he ended up sitting next to was John Moxley. So he's sitting next to John Moxley on a flight back from, from Salt Lake City. And they didn't talk a whole lot, but, and he's not a wrestling fan, mind you, but after he found out who he was and just, just the way that Mox carries himself and he presents himself. He, he, he sat there talking to me about how this is a dude that I just never would want to meet in a back alley. So I'm like, yeah, you, you needed to, you should hear him talk one day. This is the kind of shit that makes me go. I don't want to see John Moxley in a back alley. I don't want to piss this man off ever and if I do, I am, I am bending the knee and I am kissing whatever ring he has and I am begging for forgiveness. And hopefully he doesn't shove his knee into my frickin' septum. Not you saying he ever threatened me like that, but he was like, gotta go, cut your room. No, like, see, here's the thing, like if Mox like, if, if Mox was pissed off to the point where violence was, was going to be ensued, like why even run? Like I'm just going to die tired, like that, that's all it's going to happen in that situation. And I did like this promo. He paid for Mox. I don't want to pay bills. I don't want to pay taxes. You do, you do it me a solid, he'll take me out right quick. I did like this promo. What do you think of it, Krista? I did like it as well. And I'm thinking like, wow, that's a lot of, that's a lot of worse than I do. Wouldn't it be a gag? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, funny, even if Nido beats you. It was kind of surprising to see Mox win the title in the first place. I think it would, I genuinely don't know. I genuinely don't know if Moxley's going to retain this bad boy, or no. I wouldn't hate him. I wouldn't hate him dropping it just because I feel like right now in New Japan is in a rebuilding phase. They got a lot going on, so they have one of their championship belts be there on the show. And I'm not saying that Moxley doesn't go over there and defend because he absolutely does. But it'll be a good chance to build it up with somebody over there. That's my thought process on it. This gives Moxley more time to focus on AEW, which right now is also in a rebuilding phase. They got the one year recolision, MDF just came back. So there's so much for Moxley to do that in this phase, I'm like, I wouldn't mind it. And especially after all those words, Nido, Nido, now you, now that you got to kill him, but no, you got to kill him. I don't know. I mean, well, we'll see. It's wrestling. I mean, heck, TNA murders somebody every other week. So, I just saw, oh, girl, get beheaded and then for just to be a dream. TNA, y'all, if y'all watch TNA, you like murder porn, that's, that's the wrestling show for you. Jesus, somebody in the chat asking me to ask Mox about Mitch, the plant and how he's doing. I dare you. I have actually spoken with Renee about Mitch, the plant, though, and he is long, dead and buried. RIP, Mitch, the plant. That's how Mitch, the plant is doing. We got a super chat here from Roberto Arsenal saying, not one name in the Owen cup is average all banger so far. Yeah, we did get her a Shida, who said she was going to be coming back and joining into the Owen heart cup, which made me do a little happy dance because I need more of her on my TV screen at all times. We had the acclaimed come down to the ring. They're all business tonight, Cresta, no, no rap, no placate into the crowd, no, no scissors, no nothing. They get down to the ring and they are speaking directly to the young bucks. Now I can't understand what they're saying to the young bucks because every other word that Max said got bleeped out. So maybe he went a little too far with the verbiage that he used seeing as most of it couldn't be said on television. Then Anthony grabs the microphone and says that the tag team titles, they want those back. They just says that the young bucks faced them four years ago. They aren't the same team. They got all the same accolades as the young bucks, which kind of, but really that was cat. That was cat. I was going to rob him. That was cat. That was cat. Those cats. Okay. All right. Hey, as long as you believe it, that's what really matters. Whatever you got to do to hype yourselves up, we get branded color who then comes down and issues yet another fine by the way, I forgot to mention the fact that then Anthony Owens was fined earlier today, $5,000 for disparaging Matthew and Nicholas. Brendan Cutler comes down and issues another fine. This time $10,000. But then we get Christopher Daniels who runs down and then says via Tony Khan, those fines have been rescinded and then Cutler and what just what he does best, Christa, he gets his ass beat. He get, he get the man got smacked with the clipboard, Christa, like, tell me you don't respect somebody without telling me you don't respect somebody. You're just going to smack a man with a clipboard. Justice for Brandon Cutler. I will say Brandon Cutler went from wearing that stupid track suit to now that track suit is a vest, a double breasted vest, which I might add. So I see the branding, Justice of Brandon, all we're going to do was a double breasted ass kicking. Like that's all. You know, you know what it's, you know what it's fucking for every time he comes down there. You know, he about to say something on behalf of Matthew and Nicholas, who don't want to get into a fistfight. So one Brandon comes down followed by Mr. Fallen Angel, who's actually corporate fallen, CM Angel over here, like, hey, you can't do this because I'm the avatar for one Anthony Khan and you're the avatar for one Matthew and Nicholas Jackson. I kind of don't care for the authority figures. That's just me, but also again, Justice for Brandon Cutler, you know, he does his job well. What's next?

He does, and that's the problem. It's almost like he gets his ass kicked too well because they just want to keep doing it and look at it. It's a weekly staple on collision where we get three minutes of him getting his ass beat. I'm cool with it at the end of the day. Brandon Cutler is the kid who's trying to be the hall monitor because no one wants to be the hall monitor because no one likes the hall monitor and he's trying to do a good job. He's like, "Well, class started three minutes. Why are you beating me up?" That's Brandon Cutler. Yeah, he just does it because he thinks he's going to look good on his college resume. Yeah, I like that guy. It's third grade Brandon. We got endersang up there with a rolled up magazine. Yeah, that would almost be worse. Actually, I think the least disrespectful thing. Who is it that got hit in the back of the head with an iPad lost a match? Was that on Drade? Did they do that on Drade? I think that happened in Cincinnati. I think I was at that show. I think, I think Chavo hit him with an iPad and he lost. Jesus is rust. I love rustling. That's what reminds me of the time of when Chris Thatlander ran down the ramp and smacked Stokely half of the back and said, "That was good stuff." Speaking of good stuff, Thunder Rosa and Deanna Parazzo. This match was everything that I wanted it to be. This was, clearly, this was personal. This was hard-hitting. These two went at one another. There was some, I can't think of the word I'm trying to think here, but just some unique spots put in this. Thunder Rosa using the table as a ramp to jump up. First off, the guts that it took to do that because who knows that that table is going to cooperate because that could have looked bad. That could have ended badly, but she puts a trash can over Deanna's body, throws her in the corner. It runs up the table perfectly, jumps off of it flawlessly, gets hella air and then hits a dramatically impacted drop kick. That looks so damn good. I loved that spot. One of my favorite spots of recent memory in a notice qualification match. Then it almost got topped, Cresta. When Deanna just straight up kicked the cameraman and the boys, right, and the boys and his Dalton Castle, and then grabbed his camera and smashed it over Deanna's face and then put her in the Venus and she was out. She's passed out to win the match. Those were two really, really good spots. I enjoyed this match a lot. This match was booked for Cresta. I had such a good time. That shot gun ran, that was some Tony Hawk shit, that was so good. Again, the first Venus De Milo, she put thunderos in, I was like, "You're going to break that girl's arms. You got like with her shoulder to go back," this way, but she was the first girl I was off. It was punching a girl in the head. It's thunderos that double jointed because I swear, I saw some joints sticking out where they shouldn't. Nah, nah, nah, nah, the kinesia tape on the specter of Bob Backlin, she's like, "She'll walk it off, she'll walk it off, she'll walk it off, she'll be all right." No, this match was phenomenal. I have always been a fan of Deanna Perazo since I was introduced to her in TNA, and this reminds me of one of her matches with Chelsea Green when it was her versus the K. Like Deanna gives it up in a ring, that ending shot. The visual was gnarly, the Venus De Milo with her legs in a small of Rosa's back and Rosa's back. Oh, my God. I tweeted this earlier, but I will do the same. I don't know if you're listening one, Antifurd Con, but you like this girl, blood and guts for the women. You like this girl, blood and guts for the women. I want to see that. I need that expeditiously. What I've got to do to trick you, don't look over here, blood and guts for the women. Don't look over here, blood and guts for the women. Like I'll do what I mean. I mean, look, they got, they got some tough ladies. They got more than enough. Bro, just that match alone should be like, if these two could give it up like that, and I already know how Britt Baker gives it up. Miss Britt Baker, who with the face full of blood, Jamie, hey, come on and don't forget that she was fighting Thunder Rosa in that match too. So Thunder Rosa need to be in that match. Look, if Brit's ready to come back, great. I'm ready to see her on TV again, but only if she's healthy and ready to compete. Same with Jamie Hader. At the same time though, we got Thunder Rosa back. That is a tough woman. All right. Like she, she thrives in these matches and I don't want to be that guy, but I got to put this up here too. Borderline. Yes. What? Borderline illegal, illegal. That Athena and blood and guts and I could see how that's a win. I'm glad. I need to talk to somebody. I don't know who I need to talk to, but look, I appreciate Athena for being like the main staple on Ring of Honor and being the, the constant on, on Ring of Honor because she's like the only champion that we don't see on regular AEW television, like at all. Like, I don't, granted, I, I, I, I'll put about this. I don't watch a whole lot of Ring of Honor because Thursday is my night off from wrestling. That's one night of week. I give myself off from wrestling. So I don't watch it a whole lot, but has Mark Brisco been on Ring of Honor since he won the frickin championship. I mean, he's fighting for the TNT title at Forbidden Door for crying out loud. Like, I will say that is something that they complain about the cross money we do the cross over for TNA and Ring of Honor is that a lot of Ring of Honor champions are on AEW. Look at your trios champion. I see them all up and down AEW. Well, they unified those belts now. Yeah, but it's kind of like for what? Like Ring of Honor is over here struggling. All you do is take, take, take, take, take. You ain't wrong. So as I was saying, I respect Athena for being that constant, but damn it, man. I want her on AEW television on a regular basis, Wednesdays and Saturdays, please, please. And thank you. Saturday when I can cover it for work. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. I would agree with that. Guys, make sure to get your super chats in, get your humper chats in. It's a guaranteed way to get your comment read on the air tonight. We did get a Dalton Castle sighting tonight. I'm always, I'm always a fan of that. He took on Hichisaro, who gets the win pretty quickly with a twisting leg drop. I would have liked to have seen this match go much longer. This seemed like it was a really easy, really quick win. I hate seeing Dalton take that kind of an L, Gates of agony, attack him after the match. The boys try to help him out. They get quickly dispatched and then we get Daniel Garcia and Daddy Magic coming down to make the save. Did I miss something here? I've been in it out here for a little bit. Like I was kind of like, what's going on? Why would they be the ones that something, something Gates of agony, something, something. You know what wrestling is, quote, quote some bald asshole on the internet. Why? I like, I'm sure there's an explanation for it and I'm sure there was something that happened with Gates of agony and Daniel Garcia and Daddy Magic. I just can't remember it or I missed it or I don't know there. There's a missing piece of the puzzle that I would like to see here. I will, I will say though, I didn't enjoy this because of the treatment of Dalton Castle because I'm a fan of his and I wouldn't see. I love Dalton Castle too. I think Dalton Castle and Brian Keith should be in a tag team to see whose pants can go higher. I'm excited to make you so spit out truth and also Scott George saying the boys are our roards from the last time I saw you saw the boys and you also saw the outrunners. So don't jack the boys were the outrunners because I was like, is this meat mouth? Usually, if you're on the, usually if you're on roids, the opposite happens to the boys. So you know, they would have shrunk, you know, so I see, I see what you did that. You know, me as a juicer myself, you look at these two, my pods, I can attest that my, my goat, my grapefruits are the size of raises. We get Leo Rush backstage, his second appearance of the night. He wishes Dante Martin, all the best in his luck, all the best of luck in his match. I can talk against Lee Moriarty. I honestly completely forgot about the history between these guys. This is back with Leo's what I think Leo signed like a three month contract or something like that with a UW. He was in and then he was out and then it was, yeah, bye bye. We didn't really see him until he went to TNA. He retired. He retired again and came back and you know, here we are. Yeah. Here we go. I was really looking forward to this one. Christians, Father's Day special. Before you get into that, you have my tooth fence. This was a circle jerk for Christian. There you go. Look, every promo of his is a circle jerk for Christian. I mean, let's be honest. That doesn't mean it's not fantastic for the rest of us who get to witness it anyway. So first off, Christian did a baby phase turn for me when he shit on the town of Youngstown because as he should, it's just an absolutely terrible place. But regardless, he opens this thing up by talking about how it's the anniversary of buddy Wayne's passing, untimely passing, the biological father of Nick Wayne. And he says, Cresta, that, you know, that, that when you lose a father at a young age, you can have all kinds of lasting impacts. You don't really know how it's going to affect you. But damn it. If it wasn't the best thing that ever happened to Nick because it brought him to Christian. And then he told him, I love you, son, as we get the, the cat run in here, but that opener who opens, who opens the line with, I'm sorry, your dad died, but good thing, your dad died and the brother, I didn't hear him say, I'm sorry, I did not hear him say, I'm sorry. Right. I'm giving this man more courage, but that was a crazy line that was, it's the untimely passing of your father's death, but it brought you to me. That's crazy. That's crazy. Like, and look, not only is he saying that to the man's son, he's saying it to his wife, to his widow. Oh, bro. He needs to be stopped. Maybe it's time for Nigel to take on the true hater. He loves Christian Cage. He absolutely loves him. He does love Christian. Christian Cage. Christian Cage. Nick is Christian, a, a poorly written father's day card with a scratch out and like a like, they even like drew a line, like fill in the blank here and he wrote TNT champion on it. So it was, it was a, it was a piss poor father's day card. Lucha Saurus then unveils this like masterful painting that looked like a Mel piece, and I hope it wasn't Mel piece because she, she does fantastic work. But he unveils this and, and Christian is like, wow, did you do that to yourself? It's okay. And then he moves on, he's like starts talking about how great Nick's, Nick's card was and how he's a word Smith and they asked Luke, excuse me, kill switch. Sorry, kill swears. The, the frickin Youngstown, uh, crowd chanting, uh, lucha Saurus got me, got me going back to his old name there, but, uh, kill switch goes to leave after Christian asked this man why he can't he be more like Nick. And I'm sitting here and like, man, I'm starting to get how I feel about Otis and Chad Gable is how I'm feeling about kill switch and Christian, like I am just waiting for this dinosaur to eat his master and then move on and complete the babyface turn at this point or oh, he's a dinosaur. Why hasn't he? Multim already. I make a lot of lizard jokes, but at this point, take your little dinosaur hands, crack open that man, scull and he different I've had it, I've had it strangle that man with his own turtle neck, like what are we waiting for? The opportunity like, what do you think Nick Wayne is going to do to you? Nothing. Nothing. There's nothing stopping you. You know what this reminds of and I don't know why. Do you watch anime Rick by any chance? Uh, no, I don't. All right. Well, that's bluey counts. Well, the life and times of a parrot does bluey count. How about wonder pets? No, um, there's a dojo's bizarre adventure. There is a scene in those dojo's bizarre adventure episode four where this one person is stomping out this person. He else takes his drink of their wine and then they all go stomp out this person. That's what's going to happen to Christian Cage eventually. They're all just going to stop. Mama Wayne is going to be like, wow, this is a great mind. Get this man. Get this man. Get this man. Christian, um, I guess this is a gift of some kind. Basically, he says, uh, he's not done right chasing the AEW world title. He says that, uh, there he came up short and his bid against Swerve, but that there was a different angle. There was footage that exists that showed that his shoulder was up at the end of that match. Uh, footage that the young bucks were willing to show, but Christian does not make excuses. They do not make excuses in that family. So they're not going to show that footage and he's going to work his way back to becoming the AEW world champion. And the first step in that process, because this makes sense, uh, is his family's going to win the trios titles. Um, okay, sure, uh, that was his gift to his family. And then to close things out, Christian claims that Tony Khan is now his son. He is he Christian is Tony Khan's father, AEW is now his company and the patriarchy is taking over everything or taking everything, I guess I, Nicki Minaj is going to sue for gimmick infringement because she says, you bitches are my sons. And that's what Christian gauges said. That's what I choose to believe. And I'll be taking up further questions on this at this time. I did enjoy this. Um, again, the whole, I'm going to win the AEW world title. And the first step is we're going to go after the trios titles. It just, I don't know, that wasn't exactly like something that made a whole lot of sense to me. It kind of took me out at the moment there. I got, I was on board with everything that was happening until that point. I'm just like, Oh, well, okay, again, this is, this was a circle jerk. And normally I will say Christian cage and MJF promos are circle jerks for themselves. And that's fine. But this was more than normal. And at this point, I'm ready for kill switch, which is service to mall this man. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm, I'm 100% with you.

Well, I'll tell you what, you could have made some money today if you put, you went to bed online and you put down on albafire and ILODON to win the women's tag team titles. You could have made some bank, the only people to win in their home town today. Look, hey, that's one more than I thought. I had them going a big goose egg for four and the second that out, like I thought Drew had the best shot. And then the second that alba and ILODON, those tag team titles, I'm like, Oh, Drew's done. Drew's toast. We're getting punk. And look, all I'll say is I get it. It sucks for Drew. It sucks for the hometown, but it's going to make summer slimes so much better. The fact that Drew is not the world heavyweight champion right now. Trust me, you're going to realize I'm right Drew McIntyre is on the edge one day. One day he will win a main event at clash at the castle and it will be glorious and we will all rejoice. Maybe it happens in 2025. Maybe it happens in 2026. He needed to get screwed. Life's all about timing. All right. Life is all about timing. It's not the right time for Drew McIntyre to be world heavyweight champion. Although I don't blame me if you think it is, I have to tell you at this point, the only way Drew's life is getting worse is if Joe had to show up. I hope that happens. I genuinely do. I hope he's like, I hope Drew cuts like this master promo in the middle of the ring about how pissed off he is about how he got screwed and he's calling out CM Punk, even though Punk said he wasn't going to be there because he's going to go to the doctors and this stuff. And then Joe Hendry comes out and then Joe Hendry just gets in true TNA fashion. Joe Hendry gets murdered. Joe Hendry not getting murdered no more. Joe Hendry with a steel right now. You was CM Punk's boy. Oh my God. No, he's getting murdered. Are you kidding me? Oh, yeah, we got the TNT ladder match qualifier. It was Dante Martin defeating Lee Moriarty. Look, Dante Martin had some slick slick, I mean, he always does, but like this man. This man took a kip up off the floor and before like he even finished one motion flipped it around and did a head scissors like who? Who does that? Like who has that kind of athletic like that man literally can fly that man can bend in the air and just change his direction like it's it's stupid. Then he hits a drop kick through the turnbuckle. I mean, he ends up getting a win with a frog splash. I think Lee Moriarty was he was fine in this matchup and like Nigel even said, if it was based off of points, Lee would have won that. I'm like, you sure you're really sure because every every note that I took from this match, I was like, God damn, Dante Martin is legit. I don't remember writing much about Lee Moriarty. I like Lee Moriarty. I just think Dante just shine brighter in in this one. And I think they made the right call putting him in this ladder match because we know what this guy can do. And you're going to put together a ladder match for the TNT championship. You need a guy like Dante Martin in there. He's going to show out it forbidden door. I don't think he wins, but he's going to show out. Yeah, no, I agree. I think like I said, Nigel McGuinn has said that at the end of the match that when you have a ladder match like this, you absolutely need guys like Dante Martin considering you have Tkeshla in there brisk.

No restrictions apply. A message from the Colorado Department of Transportation. Oh, who is not as much as a high flyer, but can fly. You know, you've also got Jack Perry Lee Moriarty did his best to make sure Dante stayed on the ground. Because even though Lee looks like he's a high flyer, that's a technical wrestler right here. That is a ground in town. I've got you on. That's a stretching. It was a great duel of styles, but Dante Martin and I think top flight as a whole is just so deserving, kind of like House of Black, along with what's that other team that's purple House of Black, negative one, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, what's the name of that group? Dark order. I was going to say it, but I was like, are you going to get it? Are you going to get it? It's on the tip of my tongue was on the tip of my tongue. But yeah, like no, like I want everything good for top flight. They deserve trios champions, these are TNT champions, these are tag team titles, because every time when they finally get a good run, the other one getting injured. You know what I mean? Yes. I think this is a good, this is a good way for them to do something. Even if it puts Dante in a position, let's just say he wins. This gives action on Dreddy and Dari is something to do besides trio. You know what I mean? So I'm not mad at it. I'm Shane Taylor is a bully. I'll tell you that. Well, yeah. Here's the thing, and this is what I was talking about earlier because Leo Rush was the one who got beat earlier. And look, obviously blackpool, combat club and Shane Taylor promotions, they're they're on different, you know, levels as far as hierarchy and, you know, mid card, top card, whatever you want to call it. But Shane Taylor promotions, they have top flight taken out, beaten down, out it's it's it's a no contest. And then you get Leo Rush's ass who comes down there. And he takes out all three of these guys by himself, like Spider-Man, like he comes out there and pulls up like, where was the Spider-Man shit in the match earlier? Like, you just felt like this should have been on like the next week show, like. I feel like that is something that is indicative of Leo Rush's whole career, no matter where I cover this man, he's so talented, so fast, so quick, so fluid. But where is this in the match? I see it is at the beginning of the match and if something goes out afterwards and I hate his booking, I hate the way that they book him, because he's so good. I hate the way that he's booked no matter where he goes. We are Kyle O'Reilly and Anthony Henry fighting on this one was another fairly quick match here. Kyle O'Reilly gets the win with the cross arm breaker. I think Anthony Henry did maximize his minutes in this one. I thought he had a couple of nice moves. He tried to tell a story inside the match as well. I think he had a head scissors that was locked on Kyle O'Reilly at one point and he just sitting there in the middle of the ring, like flexing, like, yeah, this ain't nothing. The thing I loved about this is that, Krista, we got an explanation tonight about Roderick's strong kicking Kyle O'Reilly's ass in Northern Kentucky back on April 13th, because as Tony brought it up on commentary, as we brought it up on the show, it's like, did we just forget that, you know, these guys beat up Kyle O'Reilly for no damn reason? Like, yeah. He jumped him, bro. Like, it wasn't just like, "Hey, yeah, you did too much in the ring. No, you jumped him, bro." Yeah, you whooped that man's ass. And then like, everything is just like, "I don't know, yeah, we're friends. We're kind of, you know, we're respectful for what I'm like, you beat his ass. What is going on?" We find out that, you know, Roderick is saying it's all tough love. He's got no problem beating up this man. Because there's an eight-man superstar match. They're going to go one-on-one with each other or they're on two separate teams for an eight-man tag. He's like, "I got no problem beating him up." We jumped in because we needed to remind him who he is. We think Kyle is missing something or someone, and they were just trying to send a little bit of a message. I don't know if I, look, it's 100% bullshit, but I give them props for trying, Kresta. I give them props for trying. Gaslight, gate-keep, math teacher. I can't stand you, Roderick Strong. I can't stand you, I can't not stand you, I can't not stand you. I also have no notes for this match. I literally wrote Kyle O'Reilly versus Anthony Henry, Roddy and the Kingdom on, "Oh, he tapped already." It's literally my notes. I mean, I feel bad for Anthony Henry and anyone who's part of their workhorsemen because when they're together, people give them their respect and these guys can really rustle. When they're apart, no one gives a razzle at it. Yeah, when they're in singles matches, guaranteed, three minutes or less, they might as well be fighting for the WWE Speed title. Like, they are not getting, they ain't getting a whole lot of time to shine. You, Rick-a-furred, Rick-a-furred, Rick-a-furred, I'm just saying, they're in for a quick night's work. That's all I'm saying. Not that we don't get paid by the hours. They don't sign me up for three-minute matches. I'm like, big E. I don't, they don't give me no work, right? I don't know. Oh, my God. I don't want to see no 30-minute classic. I don't want to see no 30-minute classic. I don't want to see no 30-minute classic. I don't want to see. Iron Man Master of that shit out the window. What you talking about? I want big, meaty men or men of varying meat sizes because we're inclusive here are women slapping me. I don't want to see no 30-minute classic. I don't care about that. Get that bread heart shit out of here. I don't even want that. Put me in a 20-man over the top rope battle royal and had me be the first one out. I don't even give it there. That's too hard to think yourself. You're like, "You know what? Let me just go ahead." Yeah. I'm just kidding. Yeah. Exactly. I'll drew carry myself and make sure to check caches. Thank you very, very much. I did my job for the evening. The main event was house of black versus the bang bang gang. This one, look, it sucks for obvious reasons. Buddy Matthews clearly hurt himself at a spot in the match where he was just absolutely on fire. This man was cooking, comes off the top rope and hits a mediocre and you knew something was wrong immediately. He slams his fist down on the ring. He knew something was wrong. He's immediately talking. I forget who he was trying to pin at the time. It may have been juice. He's trying to pin juice and immediately he's whispering like something's wrong. He tries to stand up. He can't. He immediately falls down. He has to roll over and he has to tag in Malachi. Then they immediately go to break. We come back and buddy's being, you know, "It's a great hat. It's a great hat." I'm in disrespected in real time, in real time, in 4K, in 4K because she wants food now. This is what happened last time when I was doing the show last night. She was like, "I don't, this wrestling is taking too long. Make with the canned food mother." If we did this show in the afternoon, it would be the same, but it would be toddlers who would be coming through, you know, the door, "Dak, can I have a snack?" I could see him have a snack. I don't care if I'll still call apples. Oh, I don't even know where the hell I was. Yeah, buddy's getting help to the back. Crowd chanted for him. He did not come back into this one. Bang, bang look to have this locked up until POC shows up and gives Malachi enough time, open window there to hit one of the ass boys with a big kick for the win. I enjoyed this match, unfortunately, yeah, buddy, buddy getting hurt. This one kind of sucks. I mean, I'd like to think it's a work as some are saying in the chat, but just the way that people reacted to it, the way he reacted to it, I got a feeling it's a little bit more than that. I agree. I want to believe that he's a master seller and I have been fooled by the likes of Leo Rush, Nick Nemeth, Kyle O'Reilly before, because he's been looking like a little bit one. And I think that they're literally dying, but I unfortunately him that I think that end scene that we saw was pre recorded that started there. And I also I want him to be fine. I'm knocking all wood out of the piece, whatever space, whoever, whoever, especially because this match was a, you know, they want it. So now they got a trio's opportunity. So you don't want that to go, by the way, say you don't have to switch things up and change the story or bring somebody else in or, or what have you. So yeah. It fits in seamlessly, but sure he does. Yeah. In storyline wise, if this is the guy who's replacing me, so my team can get a trio's title. That's cool. But if I'm death triangle and I'm penta and I'm Phoenix in Spanish, I'm like. Okay, now my my feed did cut off early. So did I miss something here with the patriarchy and buddy Matthews? All right. So at the end, there's a big bust up. Malachi hits the end on, uh, one, it was one of the ass boys. Yeah. On Colton. Yeah. And, uh, Christian Cage comes on the Titan Shawna says, look at you guys. I'm glad you guys won. That means you've got a real title shot. Too bad you're not a trio's anymore. And it shows buddy Matthews with the appeared concerto. There's a chair behind his head, the chair in the hand and mal, not, yeah, Malachi and Brodie run to the back, uh, to go, uh, to go and help. But that was the end. That was the end of the show. That was. Yeah. So I, I missed the Christian cage angle, which may make me rethink whether it was a worker shoot or not. I don't know. It's wrestling. Things are blurred. But that was a, it, look, if, if that was a cell job by buddy, he sold me down the frickin river. All right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I believe he busted his whole knee open again. I, I hope that's not the case. I believe it. I believe it. I believe it. Yeah. Oh, hardly. Uh, overall, what did you think? Crested as far as a one year anniversary. This show has changed a lot, uh, since we started doing this show over a year ago. I mean, we thought we were getting CM Punk central, uh, and, uh, that lasted for what? Three months. I've, I've lasted, uh, three business weeks. I'm not going to hold you. This was a, I have had the privilege of getting to know you and Irritian, Irritian rest in peace. She not dead. She just not hit. Um, I hope she was also taken out by the patriarchy. She was taken out by the patriarchy, um, but no, like this is, it has gone through so many identities and I feel like, like you said, going from the CM Punk era to like the Danielson FTR era, no, CM Punk, BCC, Danielson, FTR era. And now we're the best wrestle era. I'm not mad at it. You know, it is a proof that wrestling is resilient. People are more into it now than ever. I remember like, if CM Punk leaves, no one's going to watch collision and look at us. Look, let me go ahead and refresh my YouTube really quickly before I say something over zealous. And let me just get this number right. Look at all of us, 228 of us now on YouTube talking about a show that people say their numbers are dead. I'm happy for collision. I'm happy that this is the direction that we're going in. I'm happy that there's places wrestlers can go. Um, I'm happy that it has its own identity. My only complaint a year after the fact, and this is what I was complaining about when CM Punk first came in, I do think it is time for a brand split LOL. I think that there are too many players at the top of the chessboard across all three rampage dynamite and collision where you kind of need to do tag over here. This over here. So everyone who were complaining about your Ricky Starks, your FTRs, your Malachi blacks, your house of blacks, your death triangles, even the guns, Jay whites, everyone can have something. You already have a million titles. You know what I mean? You could put the all Atlantic one place. You can put this up. That's my only complaint. Besides that, Tony Khan, you ate that. This was a good show for a year. This was overall, I'm very happy collision exists. Don't make it for hours. Don't make me fight you. That's the other thing that I was going to say is like do the brand split. What do you do with rampage? Do you just make that like the an extension of one of the shows? Do you move rampage? Do you just go away with rampage? It's going to be interesting to see what happens with the next TV rights deal and how that is going to restructure things, whether or not they stay on, looks, please stay on Saturday night. That's great. That's fine by me, but whether or not they take dynamite to three hours because they have such a deep roster, right? They have such a deep roster. You could carry a three hour show and get more people on television. You get more of your now stacked women's roster on television. And I agree with you. I think a brand split would work wonders. And I think it would help the audience with collision because if collision was the only place that you could see somebody like an MJF, if it was the only place you could see John Moxley or Brian Danielson or Mercedes Monet, like that would draw more audience and you could get the numbers back up over what was the last week, like 400,000 or whatever it was. That's the star power across all of these things. I don't think it should be three hours. I don't think any wrestling show unless you are a pay per view, let me be clear. I don't think any television program should be three hours unless you are a pay per view. That is a lot of wrestling. And sometimes it blows by and other times it's like, holy shit, it's only a 30. I want to dock. I don't think it should be three hours. If it has to be three hours, you got extra programming for next week. You know what I mean? I see people in chat like, no, not a brand split, but like I agree with Rick in the sense that there was a place where I know if I want to see Mercedes, I got to watch Monday. I mean Wednesday. If I want to see Julia, I got to watch on on on Saturdays. It's the same way, like, if you want to see Athena, you got to watch Ring of Honor. Yeah. And I don't think there's anything wrong with that to give them a strong identity. I think before it was we're not sure where people are and people land, but you've got enough up and comers, whatever you guys are doing with your tournaments, fantastic. You did something special with Daniel Garcia there. And now I want to see Daniel Garcia every week. You have an amazing thing with Hook and Joe. That's some training day shit. You've got this. I think now is the time we need to look forward and say, hey, I want to make sure enough people get enough TV time and not just having respectfully, not just having Orange Cassidy be your all-Atlantic champion for a till the end of time. That's it. Plenty of TV time to go around. Are you saying you want more Jericho? Now that I have come, I can't say that's I. All right, Cressa, where can the lovely people find your work?
