Starting point is 00:00:06 Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, welcome to another episode of the wrestling returns. We are back with another episode of the wrestling returns. I'm your host Brian. With me as always is my brother Nez. What's up, man? Oh, man, I'm good. This was better than backlash. Way better than backlash.
Starting point is 00:00:32 It's looking like it's going to be better than SummerSlam. or not SummerSlam Hell in the cell Yeah, but speaking of SummerSlam It's gonna be going on And I think in August in Vegas At that uh Bust ass
Starting point is 00:00:47 Las Vegas Raiders Stadium Are they gonna stay the Raiders? I don't know I don't care Oakland's not there So I can give a fuck about that team Go Seahawks But I got my ticket
Starting point is 00:01:00 And I'm gonna be there Nice I don't know where We're on the floor, but I don't know where. I don't really know how they're doing the whole seat thing in there. A friend of mine, shout out to wrestling guru, DJ. God damn what the hell is his name? DJ something.
Starting point is 00:01:26 DJ thrills. Yeah, that's his day. He's a huge wrestling fan. so he hooked it all up so we're uh we're gonna be there in the house so nice i'm ready it's good to uh get back to these wrestling events and uh nothing better than to in the summer with uh w w e summer slam so i'm gonna hopefully do some recording there and i'll just add it to the episode when uh when i get back but I'm juiced and I'm ready and I want to go in early because I do want to walk around and check out that stadium.
Starting point is 00:02:11 I seen it from the outside the last time I was in Vegas for Days of the Dead. But that was it. It's really close to the airport. So I don't know. I guess we're going to figure out where we're staying and all that. Shit, the last time I was in Vegas, it was just an empty lot right there. Well, it's done and built. I still, I didn't really look.
Starting point is 00:02:37 We just kind of went by it on the freeway. I didn't really check it out because I know there was issues with parking. They were saying, I guess they were saying they didn't want tailgating or any of that. And they were saying parking was like a mile away. So I don't know. This is just what they were saying when they were building it. I don't know exactly how the whole situation has worked. But either way, man, we're either going to Uber it or hopefully one of the airport or one of the hotel shuttles will drop us off there.
Starting point is 00:03:15 We'll be faded. But we'll see. I'll be alive enough to remember what happened. But anything can happen in Vegas. Yes, sir. in your house when was the last in your house I assumed last year yeah just last year
Starting point is 00:03:40 I've got a date on that one because um what's her name was still in NXT uh real Ripley yeah so it's good that she's um on the main roster um I haven't been keeping up with Raw
Starting point is 00:03:56 Smackdown or anything she's still a champ yeah It's just fucking raw is boring. Smackdown is not so bad, but it's just because, in my opinion, it's because they got, they got Bianca Belair
Starting point is 00:04:12 and they got the Roman Raines and Uso storyline going. And Raw is just like, same thing like every week. Yeah, but I don't know. We got, um, what is it? Oh, hell on the cell next weekend.
Starting point is 00:04:31 Father's Day weekend. I'll watch it, of course. But this, man, this show, it was good to see that they had an audience in the crowd at the Capitol Wrestling Center in Orlando, Florida. So that was good. It took place yesterday, June 13th. And I wasn't really sure. on how the seating was
Starting point is 00:05:06 I mean it looked like everyone was like as far as the rows being kind of spaced out but everyone was still pretty much shoulder to shoulder sitting there yeah so but I mean it was cool it was better clearly better than the live crowd sound
Starting point is 00:05:22 that they they've been doing so it was always good when you got a live audience in the crowd and I'm sure it's good for the wresters probably love it as well because they usually get hyped up by everyone. But, man, I was hyped through this whole thing. So, I mean, I thought this was,
Starting point is 00:05:42 NXT always is the better brand because, I mean, we've said this before. These guys have to prove something, prove their way to earn their spot up in the main roster. But sometimes that isn't good. If you get up there, then they do nothing with you and the next thing you know, you're fired. So, but good to hear bad news Barrett and the Glamazon.
Starting point is 00:06:10 She was there commenting. Who was the other dude in the middle? I didn't even really recognize him. Yeah. I mean, he's there, but I. They keep like rotating. Like with all the shows, they keep rotating. Because there was a guy for Raw.
Starting point is 00:06:29 I guess he was only there for like two weeks. And then he quit. so but there's a rumor i guess they're and they're bringing samoa jo back to nxte might as well i mean i think that he might be bringing him back as a commentator good and bring him yeah if he's not in the ring that's all right but just uh bring him in and uh at least we can hear him and see him but who knows i don't know do you think uh Wade Barrett would ever wrestle again? I mean,
Starting point is 00:07:06 you can't rule it out, but it seemed like he was kind of wanting to get out of it. I know he did a couple movies when he had left wrestling and then he got into commentating. So he seems pretty set in what he's doing, but you know, never,
Starting point is 00:07:30 Either he maybe he does maybe he doesn't even want to maybe he's fine with just his position now Still getting that WWE money so but I figure at maybe some point Someone will bring him in in maybe even if he just jumped in the ring for a little bit and did his move and then Then got out of the ring I mean that that'd be good enough for me Because Beth Phoenix yeah, she's uh She comes in every now and then really last time I think I want to say the last time was a royal rumble yeah in 2020 when she busted her head open um stayed in there though yeah she did i just felt bad for her man because that little red stain was just getting bigger and bigger and
Starting point is 00:08:13 bigger on the back of right yeah i didn't even realize it at first it was like why has her hair only dyed red right there and then i was like oh she's because when they showed the replay i was like oh she she's busted wide open yeah so it's good uh to always see her in there. But all right. What was there? Five matches in this one? There was five, six matches.
Starting point is 00:08:41 And then there was a pre-show one, which I did not watch. I didn't either. Which, uh, it was, uh, Surrey, which is their new, uh, signy from Japan. Teaming up with Zoe Stark and they defeated the Robert Stone brand, which is Alia and Jesse Camilla, which I don't know them. I know Robert Stone
Starting point is 00:09:04 because he used to be in TNA and he had like a Jersey Shore gimmick. Oh, his name was like Rob E or something like that. Oh, yeah. I remember him.
Starting point is 00:09:16 He's the guy that Shotsie Blackheart ran over with the tank. I know she made her appearance tonight, but I was kind of like, man, just give her a match. I mean, obviously what was going on tonight's going to lead into something. We'll see as well as Dakota Kai, man.
Starting point is 00:09:37 I love her. I wanted to see her in there. I mean, she was there, but yeah, yeah, it wasn't her night. But the first match right now was my favorite out of everything. This was the winners take all. I don't even know how to pronounce this. Legato del Fantasma. Yep.
Starting point is 00:09:59 versus the nxte tag team champions msk and the nxte north american champion bronson reed for a big man he was doing it i love bronson reed oh that uh the ending i was like ah i was screaming because uh i mean at times i was kind of like all right man this six guys uh are going to be wrestling sometimes it can be good sometimes it can be bad but this one was definitely good man these guys were all over the place i mean especially the the luchador guys they were just flying all over the place as well um they did have the mass on when they came in but then they took them all off right uh when the um the match took place but yeah that was like their thing when they because they were all mass wrestlers when they first were at nxte but when they like came together
Starting point is 00:11:01 to form their little uh little faction they uh took the mask off i don't know why but that was like their thing yeah but i thought this this match man they they they brought the house down and ronton reed um other than his finishing off the top of the rope i love when he dove across he was Usually when guys that come off the top, at least before they hit, they kind of pretty much their knees and maybe their arms or hands take most of the forces. They hit the mat so they don't take full force
Starting point is 00:11:40 onto the guy that's laying there. No, man. Yeah, he came down on his knees and everything, but it looked like he took the full force of Bronson Reed. I was like, damn, and that guy's, let's say if he's not 400 pounds he's pushing it and uh who says he is 3 30 oh yeah so but that's just buffness and and just the chubbyness i always feel bad though because i know like you know you got to take that big splash off the top rope yeah and you're just probably just
Starting point is 00:12:20 thinking about it and then when it comes it's like fuck got to do it gotta take it he even crashed through the the barricade and the fence I can't remember who the dude he came running full speed at him
Starting point is 00:12:36 he like came out of nowhere yeah it was a Santos Escobar he's like the leader of the yeah the group because yeah they were on the outside of the ring and some of the camera work was a day I caught a couple messups but um now I mean they were right
Starting point is 00:12:56 they had the good angle because when Bronson Reed came out of nowhere crashed into Escobar man they just tore down the the black barrier the plexiglass and the fence the gate the fence that they had up and they showed the first time they showed it it was really quick but then when they started at the end of the match that were showing the different multiple angles of that and man they just went crashing through their hell of hard um so that was really cool but i mean i loved all these guys in there man they there was no pussyfooting around no no dead air uh during the matchments when somebody was in the ring or the two guys that were in the ring they just gave everybody's their money's worth
Starting point is 00:13:47 because I just thought this match. They tore the house down. And Bronson Reed coming off the top rope at the end to finish. And these guys, there's their MSK and Bronson Reed are still the champs. So everything is all good. But yeah, man, I really enjoyed this match. Yeah, one of the things I really liked, I like it was winner take all. Because if this was on, let's say, the main roster.
Starting point is 00:14:17 These titles probably wouldn't even be defended. No, but it was an awesome match. I think I mentioned. I had upgraded the Peacock to no commercials. So I didn't watch this when it was live. I watched the replay because when I first got Peacock with commercials and I did one of the replays, oh, man, they threw the commercials in the worst spots. When it's live, there's no commercials.
Starting point is 00:14:48 It's just what happens, but on the replay is when they add all the different ads and everything. And I was like, it was killing me. So I had that upgrade. I still don't like an LP card. I don't, I don't like the functions and the menus and I don't know. It just seems, I know it's probably still in the early stages of it being on there, but just right now, I don't, I don't like it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:15 I mean, when it was on the, the, the, when it had the own network. when you were watching the replays, you could see, okay, this is, okay, you can go to pretty much any match that you want on that card.
Starting point is 00:15:31 On Peacock, you'd have fast forward it if you wanted to get, if you just, if you just wanted to see the main event. So, but I don't know. I assume they're still just working on it
Starting point is 00:15:41 and maybe, uh, they'll change it. But as of now, yeah, I don't, I don't like how they do it. And it,
Starting point is 00:15:48 to me, it's kind of, confusing trying to find older older stuff so but again I only I pretty pretty much watch it when there's pay-per-views I haven't really
Starting point is 00:16:00 clicked around and watched anything else when it was on the network I was watching everything on there all the little docs and the Stone Cold podcast and everything yeah but all right this next match it seemed like a filler I mean I love both of these
Starting point is 00:16:16 these gals but it was it was okay yeah I'm sorry go ahead no I go ahead I was yeah I was just saying that I kind of felt like it was more
Starting point is 00:16:32 to showcase them I mean the the storyline is what it was I mean they're beefing because somebody lost four years ago it's kind of kind of dumb but
Starting point is 00:16:44 I like that they were they showcasing these two women yeah um was it a merse mercedes martinez uh taken on uh was it zia lee zaya um it was what it was i mean they it seemed like this one this match was like really quick like once it got going next you know it was over
Starting point is 00:17:10 yeah and i the ending I think it was a missed opportunity because I didn't like the whole. I like the whole mysteriousness of, what is it, the May, May Ying. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:23 The one that sits in the chair. But when she, like, grabbed Mercedes by her throat, it just seemed like something that wouldn't happen, especially from Mercedes-Martinez. Yeah. Getting grabbed.
Starting point is 00:17:35 I wouldn't, maybe she threw, like, instead of grabbing her throat, maybe, like, popped her in her throat or something, like did some kind of chop to her throat or something or punch or something. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:17:46 but it was just, eh. And then the dude was, I think his name was Boa. I think he was kind of mysterious for a while too. And then he was just getting handled also. And it kind of ruined the whole mystique of them for me a little bit. I did like Ziley, though. You know, she's a good martial artist and I like what she's doing.
Starting point is 00:18:09 I like that they're kind of reworking her because she was just kind of there before. but doing the whole package with this with this little group here I like what they're doing and I like we get to see Mercedes Martinez more because I think she's going to get called though real soon yeah I mean the match started out cool but then next thing you know it was over so I was kind of like uh but yeah this this rivalry started four years ago at the May on classic Mercedes Martinez won that one and then I guess they were just I had to build up to it. But, I mean, again,
Starting point is 00:18:50 this match, it was good. But then it just, at the very ending, after Zai won, it just kind of like went, eh. Because of Mercedes, no, Zai came back with a, with a chair. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:19:04 And then Mercedes took from her. I mean, they both got some few licks in, and then, what's or nuts in the chair? May, May, Ying. Yeah, she,
Starting point is 00:19:16 came walking towards and that's when well they were fighting and then they kind of fell out of the ring and then when they were on the ramp that's when Martinez saw and then she came up and making choking her and I was like
Starting point is 00:19:31 really do you think she's somebody we've seen before or she like a new new wrestler I'm hoping she's just new but I do have that feeling it's someone we've seen before.
Starting point is 00:19:49 And then that, I don't know, maybe if it is, if it's just somebody new, cool, fine. I mean, I like the way she looks.
Starting point is 00:19:56 But if it's someone that we've seen already, it's Molly Holly. Oh, it better get a big pop. I don't know. We'll see. Yeah, she won that one by Penfall.
Starting point is 00:20:10 It was, yeah, it was pretty much like you said. It was a filler. This next one, the ladder match for the million dollar title Ted DiBiopsis Million dollar belt
Starting point is 00:20:23 I thought this was going to be a filler as well Until then they broke out the ladders So I was like I was good I was all in A couple of the things were a little goofy But overall I thought it was an awesome match And this was a L.A. night Which I hate versus Cameron Grimes
Starting point is 00:20:42 Yeah I fucking hate his name he because I know him from impacts and I think he was also an NWA he was Eli Drake and then for some reason he's LA night which I fucking think is the dumbest name but he's a good heel he will get on your nerves yeah man I mean the the little the stuff they built up before the match started I thought that was all good and everything Ted DBI
Starting point is 00:21:15 see the million dollar man he's up there in age but he still looks good looks like he uh takes care of himself um i take it a sunny wrestling anymore is he no he runs like a he works with uh outreach is that how you sound said outreach kids
Starting point is 00:21:33 at risk kids sorry oh good yeah he's like super religious now and works with kids i found Jesus yeah nothing against that if you guys uh if that's what you guys believe in what i don't want to believe but i've seen the thing i guess
Starting point is 00:21:50 they put on wrestling shows for the kids like so he he still gets in there but it's nothing like professional or nothing but it's for the kids yeah sure it's uh g rated wrestling but um Cameron grimes i could take him but he's funny and i liked him but man there was times i thought they weren't going to get up because of and always well later on but when the they but dealing with ladders man these guys took hard bumps and it's sometimes it looks like they hit the ladder but they don't hit it the way they want to it's like parts of them hit it and i'm like ooh and you mean they're you know you see what they're going for when they're falling off these ladders and everything
Starting point is 00:22:42 or getting hit with them. I think he got hurt though. Yeah, there was a time where it looked like he hit a ladder wrong. No, it was the one I'm talking about is when he jumped off that pillar or that's when he was getting pushed off the ladder and he jumped on that little, I don't know what you call it, that little beam or whatever. And then he jumped off out towards L.A. Knight
Starting point is 00:23:08 who was standing next to the ring. And you could see, or yeah, you can see LA night talking to him when they were laying there. Like he was checking on him as well as the ref. So I think he didn't land that like he was supposed to. Yeah, he didn't go up very high. For some reason, I was hoping that he was going to climb that, then climb across that the beam, the top beam that was holding up the belt above the ring. Did you like that glass case that was in?
Starting point is 00:23:37 No. I don't know. I didn't like it how, because when the LA night, LA night won the match. As he was holding it, the belt was all flopping around in there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:52 I mean, I guess for a presentation, but I probably would have liked the, I don't know if they added a key, like you had to get the key first, then get to the belt. So. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:24:04 that belt, it was, I don't think it's a belt you can wear. Because it looked like it was just other than the dollar signs full of diamonds on the front, but the straps, it wasn't like leather straps. It was painted gold, but I don't know. It didn't look like there was a connector. So it's probably something you can just sling over your shoulder or walk around with it. The ending, man, I thought Cameron Grimes, he hit that.
Starting point is 00:24:34 He was climbing the, they had that a gold ladder. with the dollar signs on it. He was climbing up top because they had set some ladders up outside for, for whatever move, but they never got to him. So they were still set up. But when L.A. 9 pushed the gold ladder because Cameron Grimes was almost to the top, and then he felt backwards onto one of the other ladders that was set up. Ooh, I mean, I don't care who you are, I mean, even if someone just hit you with it.
Starting point is 00:25:05 But when you fall from a high up high, on to those things, man, I give it to him. I mean, that's why I love Jeff Hardy because he always goes super high. But this one,
Starting point is 00:25:17 this match was cool. At first I was kind of like, because I don't like L.A. night, so I was kind of like, yeah, okay, whatever. But I thought these guys did,
Starting point is 00:25:26 they did an awesome job. It was, I like the outcome. Now that he's a million dollar champ, you really are going to hate him. I guarantee. Yeah. And I guarantee, yeah, he's probably going to hold on to that title for a while.
Starting point is 00:25:43 I mean, until the next heel comes along and takes it. Because if the face guys get it, I don't know. I think to me the million dollar belt is usually good if a heel has it. Because they can flaunt it and all that. If you're one of the good guys, you're like, yeah, I won the belt. Cool, right on. That's it. You'll at least get the heel.
Starting point is 00:26:09 heal guys to talk shit and everything. So, uh, I don't know who else was coming next. I assume he'll hold on to it for a while before he goes, uh, it goes to another match. So. Yeah. I don't think this, this feud is over with yet. No. I mean, it's still kind of fresh.
Starting point is 00:26:27 I was getting that LA night was trying to get the belt. And Cameron Grimes was trying to impress Ted DiBiase. I kind of felt like that's how the story was going. Yeah, because there was times when L.A. Night was on the outside of the ring and kind of leaning in whispering to Ted DiBiase. So I was kind of like, okay. Yeah, I mean, the match was good. I mean, I thought it was going to be weak, but it turned, it turned out pretty awesome. All right. This one I thought was going to be a filler, but I did enjoy it. Um, when did Amber moon, Amber Moon go back to NXT? Uh, it was, uh, last year.
Starting point is 00:27:12 Okay. Because she, she was off for a while with the injury. And then she came back and I, I totally agree that she should have been, I thought it was too soon for her to go to the main roster because they did nothing with her. And then she just ended up getting hurt. So yeah, she, she came back last year and she's formed a friendship and the team with. with a shot see yeah I love both of those ember moon okay this is the in the nx t women's title match yeah ember moon taking on the current champ Raquel
Starting point is 00:27:50 Gonzalez I love Raquel she's awesome um she's the gal that's like six feet tall right because yeah I was just like it that I'm looking at it out right now she is He has six feet, one on almost 200 pounds. Yeah, because Ember Moon is not a tall woman. So, but I liked how wind. I mean, obviously, Raquel Gonzalez was going to be kicking ass in the beginning. And then Amber Moon came back. There was some messups.
Starting point is 00:28:25 Some of the moves that Amber Moon was trying to do when she, they, they just didn't execute them. Yeah, I felt like that ending was botched. Yeah, it just. When she came off for the eclipse on, I think it was the first time she tried. She like completely missed. But I give it to Raquel Gonzalez. She just fell with it. Yeah, Amber Moon is 5-2.
Starting point is 00:28:54 Yeah, I mean, so, I mean, again, I mean, it's good. Emmer Moon, I mean, I love her. She does what she does and everything. I mean, I saw her live once. at one of the live shows and she was badass. This match was pretty good. I wasn't expecting much, but they both went pretty hard.
Starting point is 00:29:14 And minus the mistakes, I mean, which mistakes are going to happen. But other than that, I thought the whole match was good. They do not mention codebreaker at all on here. Because they have removed but a code breaker. Gonzalez said they didn't even say what the move was.
Starting point is 00:29:39 They said, oh, oh, yeah, Y2J, Chris Jericho. He says a lot. And I don't ever think he'll come back. But I don't know. But I think he's got a good spot where he's at now with the AEW. Yeah, they're building something really nice over there. So he'll probably. be back for like a Hall of Fame or something.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Yeah, but yeah, Moon goes back. I'm reading this on wrestling inc.com. Moon goes back to the top of the road. This is at the end of the match. It's a free eclipse, but Gonzalez blocks it mid-move. They tangle and Gonzalez nails snake eyes, which was pretty sloppy.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Into the turnbuckle and the big arm power bomb. uh for the pin and she's still the champ so yeah because i felt like when she caught amber moon the first time and spun her around in the air yeah kind of felt like she was trying she was supposed to spin her around into the the bait whatever whatever choke slam move she does but i felt like they ended up having to improvise at the end yeah you you can clearly see it it looked like uh whoops but the show must go on no matter what. I mean, I like that they do that, but sometimes it's when you know something bad happens
Starting point is 00:31:15 and they continue. Because I just recently watched the match when Eddie Guerrero had a heart attack in the room. And JBL, you could see that. You can see him looking at him. kind of see him looking around like what's going on but then he just ran in really quick and pinned him to to get the match over so uh but that was good but yeah this one i mean you can clearly see they botched it towards towards the end but they but they kept going so
Starting point is 00:31:47 uh good for them um the next one was uh oh this was the the main event wasn't it yeah it was the show went pretty quick for a show that was over three hours. It went pretty fast. Yeah. This was the fatal five way for the NXT title of Johnny Gorgano, Adam Cole, Pete Dunn, Kyle O'Reilly, and Carrying and Cross. I love Johnny Gargano, so I was hoping for him to pull it out. But Adam Cole's badass Pete Dunn, Kyle O'Reilly.
Starting point is 00:32:23 I like both of them. But Carrying Cross. He was the champ going in and he's still the champ now. But with that being said, man, these guys tore the house down too. I loved how it just went back and forth, back and forth. And I'm glad that, I mean, there was times when all five of them were in the ring, but I'm glad that it was like it did turn into a one-on-one battle when all the other guys that weren't in the ring were out laying on the side and everything. I was really kind of worried because of times during this whole night,
Starting point is 00:33:03 pretty much any of the matches where the guys flew out were flying out of the ring towards the announcer's table. Man, these guys were getting close. Yeah, that table's too close. Yeah, they need to move that back. But I'm a good five more feet because I was like, luckily these guys and gals were all on their feet. to either put their hands on the desk to prevent them from hitting it. But there was a few times they came within inches of hitting that thing when they came flying out of the ring.
Starting point is 00:33:40 Especially when to go back to the beginning when what's his name? Bronson Reed, when he flew out out of the ring, when he landed on all of them, man, those guys that were outside of the ring that caught him, they kind of. you could see them kind of look back to make sure they knew that distance between themselves and the desk. So, but yeah, I was, I was, ah, I was just hell of nervous every time somebody came flying around. I was like, man, fly out another way. That area was just, it was a little risky. Yeah, because some of these guys can really fly because going up to the main roster, I can't think of his name right now.
Starting point is 00:34:26 the guy from uh what is that tag team oh shit I'm spacing on now we'll just forget about I can't you remember the taxi yeah but uh I mean these guys were going
Starting point is 00:34:45 these guys I they were going full on because some of the kicks they were taking especially when a Pete done took a kick uh I think it was Adam Cole
Starting point is 00:34:57 they got him towards the end of the match and that looked like that there was no pull back. That was just full force to Pete Dunn's face. I was like, wow. They go hard on that XC. Yeah, man, they're going hell
Starting point is 00:35:13 hard. I mean, like Adam Cole, I'd rather have him stay on NXT just so he can go hard because I know, I mean, they do this all the time when they pull them to the main rosters and then do nothing
Starting point is 00:35:29 with them. I mean, there's They're still concentrating on, I'll use him for an example because he's been concentrated on him for years now. I mean, Roman Reigns. I'm a Roman Reins guy, but they just, I don't want to say Casina's not there that all they've been focusing on, but it is safe to say they do that. So I'm scared that like if Adam Cole goes up. The rumor is he might.
Starting point is 00:36:01 go up when money in the bank happens. I mean, Johnny Gorgano, if he goes up, cool, but I kind of see him sticking around, as well as Pete Dun and Kylo O'Reilly. I kind of see them sticking around NXC for a little bit longer, but who knows, maybe I'm wrong.
Starting point is 00:36:19 But Canyon Cross, I have a feeling he's going to go. He's the whole package, as far as what I feel like, guys like Vince want as a wrestler. so I think he'll go soon. Adam Cole's definitely going to go. Out of the other three, I would have to say Gargano,
Starting point is 00:36:42 but he has that thing now, the little crew he has, the way with his wife. So I don't know. Kyle O'Reilly, I like him, but I think they need to build up his character more. And Pete Dunn,
Starting point is 00:37:00 I kind of feel like, I like Pete Dunn, but I kind of feel like out of anybody, he'll be the one that gets lost if they bring him up. Yeah. They'll like bring him up. He'll be singles for like maybe one week and then teaming him up with someone stupid. Yeah. He'll be the next regissue. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:22 But I love the carrying cross and scarlet thing. Scarlet's hot and everything. But my daughter was so confused. with her. He's like, is she supposed to be some kind of witch or something? I was like, I don't know. Because she is, she, she didn't really watch it, but she came in during the carrying cross is like entrance with the, with the fog and everything.
Starting point is 00:37:44 She was like, was she kind of witch because she like popped out of the fog. Yeah. And the way she was dressed and how it's like, that's just the way, which is odd because I remember her from impact. And she was kind of more flaunting her body than what she does now. Yeah. I mean, I She also did a stink face too.
Starting point is 00:38:04 I think they're Don't know what they got yet. No. Yeah, she does. She does matches and everything, but it's, you know, we're going to team up with this guy for a while
Starting point is 00:38:16 to we figure out what to do with you. Well, I think they're married or something in real life. Oh, okay. They're neither married or to, I know they're together. But,
Starting point is 00:38:26 I mean, this whole match, these guys all went hard. um little little men little miners nothing nothing too obvious uh for as far as mess mess ups but um i thought it was a good match man when carrying cross was in there just destroying everyone in the beginning and then uh i don't know if he got winded but he fell out and laid there for a while before he came jumping back in but uh i loved um to me i think out of out of these five guys i mean i thought when pete dunn
Starting point is 00:39:01 and Kyle O'Reilly were in there getting it, man. They were fucking going hell of hard. And I loved how every time somebody was getting pinned and they'd come breaking it up, I think it was Gorgano when someone was getting pinned and he just came flipping in. Or when they, I think it was Adam Kool
Starting point is 00:39:28 and it wasn't O'Radi. was Gorgano when they double teamed and kicked Super Kicked Pete Dunn when he was in the air. I was like, damn. Because this match, when they were doing those kicks, man, they were kicking
Starting point is 00:39:42 hella hard and they were connecting. I mean, it's different sometimes, but when you get kicked in the face or in the side of your face, I mean, obviously maybe they didn't give it like full force of the kick, but that the way that they were connecting.
Starting point is 00:40:00 Oh man. I mean, there was there was no way around that to say that they missed or pulled their kicks there was one uh carrying through a kick of kind of a big boot type kick and uh i think it was i want to say uh pt done and he caught him like flush yeah i was like ooh um the ending wasn't the greatest but i but i did like how um who was it uh carl righty kyle Kyle O'Reilly had Pete Dunn and the hell was that leg lock called. Whatever it's called, whatever his moves called, but basically a leg lock. Somebody just yelled it.
Starting point is 00:40:46 Yeah. When Carrying Cross came in and grabbed Kyle O'Ready, yeah, he probably wasn't squeezing them like super hard. You just got to make that face and shake to make it look like they're doing it. But I don't know, it looked like he had him good under the neck because I wish they would have sold it better because if you remember right before Pete Dunn had grabbed. He did that finger thing he does. Yeah. And he did it to carrying.
Starting point is 00:41:18 I wish they would have did like a different finish than he normally does and sell the fact that he couldn't like clasp his hands together because of his fingers. Yeah, because, um, yeah, it's just, it was a little sloppy. but um i mean Kyle o'reilly sold it because once his eyes started rolling backwards and that's when i was like all right this is it i know this is not gonna end
Starting point is 00:41:45 yeah i kind of felt like carrying was asking it because it looked like carrying was talking shit but i felt like at the same time he was like are you really out you okay because he was just laying their limp yeah but it was what it was it was still a good match though i mean i i I enjoyed it. I was hoping that it was going to be more.
Starting point is 00:42:06 Because this match was the longest towards the end. But when it was all said and done, yeah, Carrie and Ross ended up pulling it out. What was that thing with the Regal at the end? I guess everything's just been kind of out of control with everybody fighting because they'd like him before this match. Gargano was walking to the rain. You could see Shotsie and Amber
Starting point is 00:42:34 were fighting Raquel. I guess stuff like that's been going on during the regular NXT shows. And I guess he feels like he's not able to handle it no more. And what did he say? Maybe it's time for a change. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:52 I don't know if he's stepping down and somebody else is stepping up or what or he's bringing somebody in. This could be the Samoa. Joe thing I was talking about. Yeah, I was kind of hoping that he was going to bring somebody in from outside because he walks out into the parking lot at the end. So I was hoping that
Starting point is 00:43:12 after he said what he said, he was going to turn and then whoever was going to be standing there and then, ah, I was ready to flip out, but nah, that's not the case. If he leaves for a while, maybe he did take a break or whatever and Joe comes in, man, cool, right on. So, but yeah, we'll see what's happening. But, yeah, that, that was pretty much it.
Starting point is 00:43:37 I mean, these NXT guys and gals, they go fucking hard, hard as fuck. I mean, even just during the regular shows. But when it comes to the takeovers, I mean, they pull out all the stops and just go for it. So I really loved it, man. Who, Shotsie, those ponytails. I was like, ooh. And Dakota Kai, I'm all right with the pink hair, but I liked it when she had the just regular dark brown hair. But who is his own?
Starting point is 00:44:11 But yeah, Shati in that green hair, yes, please. And she's from Almeda. She ain't from Oakland, but it's all right. I'll let it slack. She's hot. Yeah, what was that wrestling league she was in? The, it was kind of like the hood slam. Yeah, that one.
Starting point is 00:44:29 It's going to what's going on. down there. My brother's friend, he knows her, because they always went to hood slam. Well, I need to know her. Yeah, dude, once that gets going again, I'm not sure they haven't had it
Starting point is 00:44:44 because California's got different rules on these type of things. But, dude, once, hopefully when we get back into the swing of things and they start those up, dude, you should come down because those hood slam shows, even the glam shows when it's just the women wrestlers,
Starting point is 00:45:00 and they go off in there. Yeah, shit. I'm trying to see maybe if I can make, because of WrestleMania is supposed to be, what, Dallas next year? Yeah. Trying to see if I can make that happen. Yeah, dude, man, because I'm going for sure.
Starting point is 00:45:15 Definitely. You should come down. We can do the wrestling returns live from the weak-ass Cowboys Stadium. No offense, Phil. No offense. All right. Ryan, we got anything else when we get out of here? No, great show.
Starting point is 00:45:35 I think the next big NXT thing is, I think they're doing Great American Bash. I think I saw advertisement. Yeah, I was in that. So maybe we'll cover it. I don't know. We're doing a lot and we're going to be doing a lot more. So we'll see.
Starting point is 00:45:53 But no, great show was fully satisfied with this. Whoever runs the creative team in W.D. needs to learn. That's all I could say. They need to go over there and show them a thing or two. I mean, again, it's two totally different, three totally different brands, but you can't have the beginner guys showing up all the main roster guys,
Starting point is 00:46:25 but that seems to be the case ever since NXT started. I don't know. we'll see how it goes but um we'll be back uh next week for a hell and a cell and i am not excited at all i i think we're going to see some a conclusion to this uh thing with the uso's in roman i hope so and i and i think we're going to like it all it was brock lesnar better not come back oh he'll come back i know it because now that bobby's the the champ they're going to do the everybody wanted to see them in an
