Yeah, grape, it's my snack.

Well'm I always eating? That's all? Yeah, it's always snacking. Almost you feel me, I eat more than when I used to smoke every day. That's good.

That's good because smoking, you feel me, actually curbs your appetite.

Oh, I didn't get the memo I was eating a lot.

Then well that's the thing, because it's like it's the way you eat, you know.

What I'm saying.

I feel like you get into that habit of I can't eat until I smoke or blah blah blah blah blah. You feel me, it's like the deer shit like that, you know what I'm saying. So it's like you.

Get awaking bacon then you eat.

You know what I'm saying, Like, the life shouldn't be like that.

No, No, let's get into it.

Man, ladies and gentlemen, people, people without jobs, middle class, upper class, high class, all that cat snakes, chickens, ducks, elderly people in turkuts represent to you.

What's going on?

Great?

I'm wonderful I feel about it. Jordan Davis locking Locking the Field goal running back to return it. That's how I feel i've been. I've been on a high all week. I'm not gonna.

I've been on a high. We got our first loss served right the fuck up to us by the Browns. It was not It was not a fun occasion actually for me. But it was a defensive affair, So salute to both teams defenses, low scoring, but I just wasn't happy with what our offense put out on the field. However, we have a chance for redemption this upcoming Sunday against Cowboys. For Michael Parsons, I'm debating taking the night off so I can make sure that I can watch that game uninterrupted.

Anything new?

You've been this whole week of work. You haven't had an off day yet. Talk to me about life.

Finally, I'm off tomorrow, Thank god, I can clac myself. I've been working non stop, going crazy. Became important to work against my will because I'm good at what I do.

But it is what it is.

But nah, man, you're saying you're gonna take the day off, I'm join to make up because I know on Monday I'm gonna be pissed off because they're gonna be They're gonna lose again. It's the battle of the losers on Monday. But I digress. I'm gonna be here holding it down doing it. But yeah, I'm good though, Like I finally I'm going to go see Like I was telling Ben before we get on it, I'm going to go see Demon Slayer tomorrow. I finally got my ticket so I

Fans were weird.

Anime fans who good luck to them.

That's why when people be like, oh, wrestling fans are the worst fans, like of all media, I'm like, it's Star Wars fans, it's anime fans and NBA fans.

Those are the top three.

Villains in anything y'all think, y'all out here, Just like chilling or whatever, an NBA fans will mess up your entire day.

They will alter the way you think about life, like I no bro like y'all y'all, not even y'all not.

Even hitting the tip of the iceburd like y'all anime fans, definitely definitely.

Yeah, that's so. I was like, I'm good on that. Yeah, well, let's go.

Ahead and introduce the new public enemy number one. You're forever champ, jizsel CJ. Welcome to the broadcast.

Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, here ye here ye oh god. I was hoping you gonna say something, Ben, first declaration of my championship brain. Everybody named Ben who was named Ben or has a middle name Been, or know some I his name Ben will address me as L halfe the Tormentor. Okay, L halfay the Tormentor is here. I did conquer the predictions this week. Shout out to Graham. You know what I'm saying for your Raymond stereo run,

Okay, all right, well anyways, favorite, let's go ahead, clap it up for your number one, your god. You know you know who held that championship, that that that you got there right there on your shoulder, just so you know, you know who held that champion got the name of

That was the weird thing like when they when they brought it up, I was like this is not on my list of like for actors to play like I've had when they talked about doing like an Eddie Guerrero one or whatever, I was like, Okay, I have some like my ideas.

We could play Eddie.

Same thing like some other wrestlers, Like they even like brought up a Christmina Wall one. I'm like their wrestlers. I mean there are people who probably play Christminal Wall, but my cho man is not really anybody that I have really in mind. Like somebody probably have to like transform themselves into someone that looks like I've seen people

The X Men movies.

Everybody was like, well, hey Cargill, she can play Storm. I'm like, bro, like you know we we we fan the Jay Cargo. But I'm like, I'm not. I'm not putting her in that spotlight right now to get ridiculed like y'all need y'all need to chilling it, but uh yeah, I'm down with it.

I'm cool with it, but I don't know who.

I don't know who playing you know who I probably can see, like Transformer they want to You remember the guy who played one of the erics in in that movie.

I forgot that he's on the.

Bear, Jeremy Alan White or whatever.

Yeah, I can see him, like if he's dedicated to he can transform because he can act because he killed it in that movie. No pun intended to every mind, but but yeah, he actually act in like from the clips that I've seen, so I wouldn't be like he could be somebody I can see Transformed because he said he enjoyed the making that film. So I'm like, I mean, let's see you act, because all you gotta do is get somebody who has long care who can pull off a fake tam Major.

That's hilarious.

Next subject man that I was more surprised to see Keenan Thompson being the one that was like spearheading the project.

Was my question, why do you hate?

I mean, that's need to hear nor there. But M like, it's like I don't really I never really saw like any real link between him and wrestling, but then he like posted a picture with him and Macho Man and like there was like a video that they did with him and they was like golfing and some show.

So he is a Macho fan.

I guess so, I guess so, So that's interesting. Also his Artist for Artists company helped produce Good Burger too. They did the Olympic Highlights with Kevin Hart, the show that they did last year, the recap show on Peacock after the Olympics, which is I think that was like Immy nominated. And then also they did a Netflix special Christmas show with Sabrina Carpenter. So he's got his hands in a couple of different projects. So this was pretty

Okay, how am I saying the white white That was one.

Of my questions.

I didn't say that, you said that, I said when I said however, we can go ahead and move on to something.

I just see what you're saying though, But yeah.

You know what I'm saying, a little bit more dope, a little bit more lighthearted man, y'all talk about y'all talk about. We'll talk a little bit more about this gentleman in a minute. But patreon dot com slash public Enemies and his name is John Cena versus Rob Van Dam the ECW two thousand and six one night Stand main event. That is the latest episode uploaded to the Patreon. Uh, you know what I'm saying. Series that is me and Gresh.

I call that man a preacher.

Yeah, I think it was just a regular nigga.

Though going to a wrestling event in a full suit.

He might have been security too. Yeah, I'll go that time. You never know, You never know. Niggas is different. Niggas is different.

See if I see you want to rest a whole two piece three piece suit at a resting event on called security. He has a gun, sir, please get him away from me.

Well, there might be some people in a you feel me in a three piece? You know what I'm saying. You know what I'm saying type You know what I'm saying. Formal attire at TNA Bound for Glory, because we just got a word over this past week that not only will Mickey James be inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame this year, but in addition to that, TNA also announced that they will be inducting the Beautiful People into

It just be the two of them, or because you know, it's like twenty people in the Beautiful.

View, Bro, don't do that because I don't know who was in the group.

You're gonna ask me to continue my true feelings about other than Mickey James.

I was just delivering the new I don't be real with you. I only know them too. I only remember them to.

In the group.

But uh, you see how easy it is to put more than one woman in the Hall of Fame at one time?

What a concept? What a novel?

Id man, that's what the number two man, that's one of the number two rest of company in the world.

Oh my god, do you want to do you want to go to that part or no time?

I don't care about it.

Yeah, they got a long way to go before they even be number three.

But you said you got a long way to go out of here.

Santino, which like that say his name like Santino Tino number two.

I think we could be number two. I think we could be the silver medal. That's not that's not the leader that I want. Wouldn't leader like the Tormentory? All right, that's with the greatest of all time.

As far as China, they still doing that loophole. They likenically she's in the Hall of Fame, a part of the.

They ain't have a colorboard cut out of her or nothing. Man, he's what dead niggas you get shot, you know what I'm saying. They put the the funeral on the ship. You could even bring a cardboard cut out of her. Niggas is yankie, man, She ain't no hall of fame her own ship.

Like car Blake Car.

They could have pulled the Survivors twenty twenty and gave her a hologram like they did Paul Bear.

But that's I mean, yeah, they are definitely along with being I mean, you should just be comfortable with being number three, Like that's okay. There's nothing wrong with the bronze medal, you know what I mean, Like be happy with that because that's the most you're getting, you know what I'm saying.

Sometimes sometimes you got Sometimes you want to pull up on somebody. You gotta put your right show. You said, Hey, comparison is the thief of joy gave it at that.

Don't shoot for the stars, to shoot for the roof first, you know what I'm saying, I have to shoot for the door. And then if you get the door, then you know what I'm saying. Scott's the limit.

I don't know. Well, I'm wondering if you're about to disguy's the limit? And you know what I'm saying, maybe they are shooting for the stars. You know what I'm saying. They got, you know, the induction of Mickey and the beautiful people. AJ was just there at Slammiversary. Maybe there's a possibility AJ comes back around for Bout for Glory and has another appearance with with TNA. As we do know right now, AJ styles is slated to face off

I'm a little.

Bit uh surprised by this.

Uh.

To be honest with you, I want to ask you, guys, CJ, what is your what is your your first initial reaction when you saw that this match was getting announced or when this match was announced.

I was pretty I mean I wanted it to happen, so I was excited that it happened and shit. But you can kind of see the rumblings about it about the because he was like, hey, guys, I'm not the one that makes the rules, but you should talk to Triple Age and then maybe he could do it. And then AJ was like, yeah, man, let's do it. And then it was like right after that, so that seemed kind of playing, so he kind of took the steam

Right, Gresh, Why is WWE booking AJ Styles versus Johnson that crowndewl.

Because they only got john seen before that that show, and it was like, hey, we don't have time to build to the match that we want, so might as well get this out the way, because once the AJ Styles match happening, were down to four appearances until the retirement match, so hey, let's just do it right here.

Right now.

And I feel like they probably have something some other opponents they want to get out the way during the last few and then they're done.

Well, he's got five appearances left. This would count as you said, this would be be four after this, right, some other opponents. Another question for you to follow up. Does this have anything to do with the reaction to the brock Lesner match, and if that is the case and we're talking about different opponents, when it comes along the way to him finally retiring, is brack Lesner going to be another one of Johnsena's opponents. Does he attempt

I have a feeling in my stomach that he's going to be the final phoning opponent. I wouldn't be surprised, because no way that that squass match was like that out a follow up. There's no way, because it's like it's gonna come back. He's gonna look back at that blimmish and be like, yo, I gotta get my win back.

Is he scheduled for Survivor Series?

I don't think so.

Uh.

They are both on the Survivor Series poster. Excuse me, my bat, my bad. Brock Lesnar is not on the Survivor Series post. John Cena is, so it seems as if he may be.

He may be.

I can see them doing like a War Games type of scenario where John Cena and brock Lesnar captain both teams and do something like that to at least to let him get his win back, because like you're you're in a weird spot, like, yeah, I wanted this that match on Saturday, to the end of it. I didn't want to see it, like it was like it was like yo, a carbon copy of the match and from

I do want to confirm that John Cena is scheduled for Survivor series. Yes, yeah, I mean you said like a fantasy book and that idea of him and Lesnar. You know what I'm saying, like spearheading or manning or captaining their own Survivor series teams. That does that include the vision because people are also like trying to fantasy book division into this whole Survivor series pictures.

C J.

You're gonna say, I just don't if they did the whole war game ship, like who want to be on this nigga team, Like he's he's just he's around shooting on niggas. Forge he just him versus five niggas, And I'll be down with that, probably him versus ten niggas, because I'll be down with that. But I like the war games idea that.

Ben said, Brod don't know who.

I just don't know who the fuck he could get, you know what I mean? But who? Okay, So other.

Than I don't know, definitely on the team, Cody is definitely on the team. I think he can sway to Randy. Let me see, you probably get Randy uh. And that's honestly it. I can't hit too many more than to be like, yo, I'm just wanting to tag team, which you seen it just the other I mean, they're probably that's like, I can't really think of anybody on the top of my head. You'll probably get some nostalgic picks that he had rivalries with to be like, yo, I respect you.

I'll be on the team.

Look at me both bronze all that.

Yeah, because this is John Cena's farewell tour, everybody should be clamoring to be on John Cena's team. I think the idea would be like who would they be facing off against? Is that said? Is it brock Lesnar and you feel me his team of bandits?

You feel me like the team up with with Paul Haymon coming out of announce that. Yeah, they're definitely gonna lip for survivories. That seems like to be the pathway.

I think that's the most logical way to look at it. Brock Lesnar and the vision against you feel me like the Sena Broman punk H. There's there's a lot of star power they can put on. If you put Drew McIntyre, he's got to be on the heel team.

You know, you got you gotta come into a sensus like Yo, we're friends, nigga.

I'm gonna move on. I'm definitely. I do have one more question because this is because this just happened and we haven't really seen any follow up this John Cena and AJ Styles match that's happening in Crowns. Do they loop that in somehow with that whole weird AJ Styles somebody doesn't want me here a thing that he did on RAW a couple of weeks ago.

Ben, I hope not.

I really really hope not.

There's nothing that I hate more than the force, Like, oh, I'm.

Breaking down the fourth wall, like I'm letting y'all behind the curtain. Like I hate that. I hate that so much, Like like it just.

Seems so forced and disingenuous and honestly like you got this match from being like from pushing it like on social media. So how can you really see like somebody's against me? I gus see if you if you got on TV, you're like, yeah, like they're ignoring us, Like they're not talking about our tweets or anything like that, then you would have like a motive behind that. But if they carry that into this storyline, it would just be kind of like awkward and it wouldn't it wouldn't

Do you think they dropped that that whole idea of the aj Styles conspiracy thing.

No, they'll do it some type of way.

I think they'll try to shoehorn that into some type of other rivalry or some type of other like situation that aj Styles has going on after that. But honestly, like hearing the news that we got like before the show started that he's gonna be retiring in twenty twenty six, I think he mentioned this before like a like a couple of years ago as well. I think to the

I didn't even mention it again on Monday, So it might be something that he did off the cuff.

I definitely think that they might have, you know, had something planned for it. But with that, like not going back to it, maybe it's like, you know what, let's drop this, let's go with the AJ thing, and let's just go ahead and forward with that. But yeah, I did see what AJ was saying about he was planning on retiring in twenty twenty six, and he said something about because I think his his his contract expires like around February or something like that, but he was saying

Yeah, you could be there.

So basically an extension probably until like I say, give it to the summer and then he can he can about then to dedicate an entire year. You can just be like, hey, we can extend it for six months, do like one last run in TNA for the ships and giggles because they got the partnership. And then yeah, now well he stayed retires another thing, because you know, wrestling and retired doesn't go hand in hand unless you past them.

Yeah, I'm saying gainst the Paul pierrestreatment.

Yeah, well I don't know, but that's that's that WrestleMania next year, which is in Las Vegas. There was also rumor report that we may possibly see something like brock Lesner versus bron Breaker next year at WrestleMania in Las Vegas. CJ. What are your thoughts on the idea behind this, uh this possible marquee match for bron Breaker next year at Mayy.

I think that would be the probably one of the best first steps that you could take if you could to go with this, this would have to say that he would going to solo joint then by then going against Bronc or whatever. But I think that would be a great little showcase of putting your over kid matches for bron Breakers that he can have because you'll be taking out of those bona fide legend and I fucking love that idea. That would be fucking dope.

Gresh do you have any interest seeing bron Breaker versus Bruck Lesner or Brook Laser shout.

Out to Borck Lazer.

Uh, Actually yeah, Like if this is if if Brock is getting prepped up to basically go back on this monster's run to where he's unbeatable for the time being, and they want to use this momentum to put the next I hate to say it, like this the next.

Big thing over.

Then I feel like that would be appropos for broun Breaker somebody like a bron Breaker to take that next mantle, and then they can use that as a as a catapult to start dissension within the vision because even though Seth has beaten Brock, Braun can just get cocky and be like do I really need your vision because my vision sees me being this unstoppable monster on my own.

I really don't need you, And.

Then they can that can lead to them, like if they don't go Seth versus Braun and wreusselemania, that can be the program into the summer that Seth and Braun.

I think, like, like what you guys said, like this is the best possible pathway, but I'm gonna flip it I'm saying, like, this is the best possible pathway you can get to creating your next brock Lesson and getting brock Lesson in the hell out of here, Like this is this is what you can do to get him out the pastor because honestly, I've been saying that since people have been asking, like we want brought back, we want to brought back what they do that is different

They did the same thing with Drew McIntyre and during the pandemic, you know what I mean, Like when they when he threw up, when he eliminated that nigga and the Royal Rumble, it was like ha ha, and then beat his ass real quick, like you gotta like you gonna he's gonna have to kill him like and then if if he wins, which he should like, he has to dominate him like the same way he just did. See the bitch ass of a couple of days ago. You're gonna have to do it. He's gonna have to do that.

Ship to brock times too much.

I sum up my thoughts on the possibility of brock lesnar versus Brown Breaker in.

Two words, what they do.

So so just a few days ago, Russell Plosa was the first ple on ESPN after that shoe, A lot of people were saying, you know, kind of paint by the number the middle of the road. You know, they didn't really give us too much that we weren't expecting,

I'm gonna be real with you, like I see very nice. That is very very complimentary, very very just because this show was not it.

It wasn't it. There were a lot of things that were wrong.

A lot of moments felt very clunky, like the Andreas Dale was definitely one of the sent right. Definitely Vaccare Versiels guy saved this show or else it would have been like it would have been bad because like reading the reports of things like that they changed last minute, Like apparently John Cena.

Was supposed to get the victory on Brock.

I think they said that from reports, they're saying that John Cena didn't want to get the win, that he wanted prop to get the win because Brock is going to be around longer than him.

If that's the case, Okay, I kind of get it.

But some of the other things, like they wanted to I think they the reports were saying that Cody was pushing for Drew McIntire to beat him and when the title so Cody could begin to like the chase again, this show offered nothing interesting, nothing really out of the way, and it just wasn't that good.

So honestly, a C is a great grade.

And if this is the like what ESPN is gonna be doing going forward, I'm cool. I'm cool with it because it's like ESPN is giving them all this money to put the p l E s on here, and if they raided, honestly, like they do every other sport that's under their umbrella, like they're not They're not shying away from writing articles criticized and or saying anything that's not complimentary all the time. There was even a report from PW Insider that some wrestlers were.

Like, yo, I thought the show was cool. I thought the show was average. I thought it was, you know, like one of the one of the ones we had on PEAKAI.

That's the problem y'all didn't advertise like, oh, this is the average running the show. Y'all was not to say, expect big surprise, expect this, expect that triple A.

Like, Yo, it's gonna be great, it's gonna be marvels.

We're gonna have like we're gonna have all the grandiose stuff, all all this and that and then it was just like.

Man, A C A C is the is the best case scenario that them niggas could have asked for from what they put on, I get anything else, but anything else they'd been like they biased. Man, They just say that because he worked for ESPN and y'all was trying to run up his back nigga because he gave he was easy. That was great on a curve, Nigga, Like that ship was that ship was a two match show.

Fuck that ESPN is going to continue to grade, you know what I'm saying. These shows they grade the UFC shows, they great like boxing events and all types of ship. So it's like it's not out of the norm for them to to do an article like this, regardless if it's a wrestling article or not. Can we have some fun and can we just great wrestlers like wrestlers and situations? Can we just great ship for the rest of it?

Just so you see root or opinion.

Yeah, I just feel like since it's it's since everybody's giving their opinions on motherfuckers and their opinions. You know, it's great everything. OHJ you said grading on the curve? Right, So are we grading to the like like what's the curve that we're grading on here?

Like like you know, like you know like this like sixty four percent is a C. You know now you know what I mean? I should be a D minus to me, but you know like a sixty four percent is a C. You feel me? Like we start grading right there. I don't want to, like I want to. I'm trying to grade these niggas like I league, we gonna give some opinions, man, because I was when I seen C, I was like, Yo, that is a very jerious thing. Like and the way that these niggas was

Man.

I love him, great guy, very very decorated. Like man, it was just lucky, man, you lucky. It was a real wrestling fan that wrote that ship, and it was giving him a pass because it was your first time on ESPN, So your first show on a big network like that, you know what I mean, you would get a little leeway, you know what I'm saying. But it was like, if this was a regular ass ship that was on pea colored, niggas would have been rubbing. Come on, man, you gotta have to rub your niggas nos in it

The words, doing tricks on it for that package.

Let's give this shot. Let's give this a shot. See grade, you're you're not your your thoughts or grade. The Kabookie Warriors turning on EO Sky this past Monday on.

Rock, I mean, let's see, according to what I'm saying, for the moment, and uh, I'm gonna give it a B. You know what i mean. I'm giving a B. Okay, give it a B. You know what I'm saying. Grade not the curve. I'm gonna give it a B because we've kind of seen it coming. But even though that we've seen it coming, it still didn't take away the factor, you know what I'm saying. And EO fucking saying EO gets an A for her part in it. You know what I'm saying. This is a group project. I'm saying,

Kyrie has been amazing me personally. I would have rather, uh there have been a situation like what they put together. Uh, but Kyrie be the surprise element of that because they kind of laid this out and we already saw this coming. I would have rather they would have had the twist of Kyrie being the one that attacks EO and sex.

I'd give it a B plus, Like it was like like see they said, we knew it was coming, but the way they handled it was perfect.

And Yo Eo.

Did a wonderful job even following up after like posting the video like on like Twitter and.

Be like yo, I don't know what happened. I don't know what's going on, Like uh.

And Ria like the part that she played in it too, like she got missed and she she took over the team and she was blue like for her like three hours after that, like taking care with fans, uh doing all types of stuff like it wasn't just like her face. I don't know how they pulled this off, like it was full outy.

Like I understand that, I give it, Yeah, I got I.

Gotta bump that up from a beat there, b plus just because of the commitment on everybody, like I don't know, I don't know what happened.

But even great mood to look back like damn.

Yeah, Ria was up there looking like the.

Blue Meani Show, the Blue Man Group, straight rolling forties.

So I'm assuming we're gonna get Kobookie Warriors versus uh Eo and Real Smurf Crown Jewel Mama Smurf, Mama Smurfet Mommy Smurf. Here you go, Josh So Eo and uh Riha versus U Kabookie Warriors is a likely direction for Perth, given that Ria doesn't currently have a match, and we already know that Stephanie is gonna take on whoever wins this triple threat match tomorrow night with Jade Naya, and we got there.

They're gonna they're gonna do that, and they're probably gonna flip it for Survivor series.

Yeah, as far as like, what do you mean flip it like the singles match, Yo.

Now they're gonna they're gonna flip it into a war games like they're gonna continue like with EO being like in the war Games, They're gonna like have like whatever team Ria and EO can put together, Like for whatever team that Oscar and Kyrie can put together.

I could see that you need war games for that.

And that's a regular tag team match, you disbelieve. Yeah, And then first off, you don't tell you to address me as chaos. All right, that's crazy.

Listen, mister public enemy number one. I'm not gonna call you none. You would me anyway you feel me. But you had through on the power rankings for what Bleacher Report dropped to the twenty five greatest WWE Women's Wrestler. Uh this list. I think this list was dropped like the same day we recorded last week or whatever. So I'm like a little bit behind schedule on this because I wasn't thinking about this shit when niggas dropped it.

What are your thoughts?

Yeah, the great that list from Sam get that grade at D You know what I'm saying. I don't think

But I guess I can't be mad at Becky being number one, and she's not my choice that I would pick, but I can't be mad at it considering all the things that she's done, all the accomplishments that she's done, and how high on the total pole she's been to be able to like to kind of like pivot off of some of the things that she's done, Like she's like something like kind of repeated some things here and there. But she's always put a fresh coat of paint on

One because it's not just them saying ESPN right.

Report saying so yeah, so I guess you know, that's more you know, more fuel to the fire, more proof in the pudding. You know what I'm saying for her to you know what I'm saying, continue on her question and continue motivating her to stay at the top of her game. If all of these outlets are saying that they look at her as the you know what I'm saying, as as the she's she's the lynch pin, She's the one to go after. She's at the top of the

That minus get that ship?

The fuck about it?

What?

Like?

Yo, nah man, she's not even twenty top twenty six, let alone top one hundred. Man, they just did that strictly because of her name and what she brought to the industry at the time.

That's it.

But as far as like you're going based off of like m ring work or to be one of those well actually type of cats, then yeah, she shouldn't be nowhere near the top twenty at all.

And I'm going to ask you to be a well actually type of guy. Naomi was not on this list. If you were making this list or if you were editing this list, where would you slot Naomi? If you would put her in your top twenty five.

She'd easily be top fifteen. I wouldn't necessarily put her at number one, but I definitely wouldn't put her at number at number fifteen either. Like it because it's so many from as long as I've been watching this sport, this entertainment outlet then i've been It's like, I wouldn't necessarily put her as the greatest of all time, but I would never put her at the bottom.

Gotcha, Benny, what do you think?

Yeah, definitely like in the top fifteen, I'd say probably number like twelve, thirteen, somewhere around there. But she definitely to be on this list because like I haven't read the full list, like I only need the top ten.

I didn't know ron Arowsey had made it into the top twenty.

Five, but like I could see like how people would be pissed that Naomi wasn't in the top twenty five and you have like ron Arousey in there, and like outside of like the hype that she brought in there, like it was it wasn't sustaining, like like outside of that that match that they had at WrestleMania and everything like that, that was your your hype, that was your peak. You never hit that again, even when they main evented WrestleMania was at thirty five. You never hit that boiling

Like, Yeah, I'm looking at our eleven through fifteen right here, and if we're taking Naomi into consideration, you got if I go from eleven to fifteen, you got Ronda Rousey, you got Paige, you got Eo Sky, you got the Bella Twins, you got Beth Phoenix. I think in totality, Naomi ranks higher than all of them at present moment. Yeah, yo, it's going to give her a fucking run for her money when she's done. Yeah, Yo, she's she's she's she's pushing man, she's pushing.

Ten.

Eventually she start to fuck up. I'm not gonna lie, you know, I want to see what that panther. But so Luton Bleacher Report, a lot of these things are like outrage marketing anyway. So it's they just about it exactly.

Ray. You could say page like it said it said Ronda, then page Nigga through the whole magazine Nigga Like.

Yeah, that's wild.

But what is a headphone meme?

Keep it?

Speaking of things that you can keep, this upcoming weekend is NXT no mercy, and we've got six matches on the card. So let's talk about this show. Let's talk about this whole idea first and foremost of this whole TNA invasion that happened on NXT. This is a part of the go home show. How do we feel about TNA invading NXT? Gresh, can you kick us off please if you don't mind.

How do we feel about TNA NXT?

I will feel sometimes I will feel if this was ten years ago, maybe even twelve years ago.

I'd be moved.

But like eighty percent of those people have either been on NXC recently or former NXC superstars, so it doesn't even look like an invasion and looked like, hey, this is development invading development.

Yeah, like that was a huge thing. Like that Cedric Aallexander.

We love Cedric Alexander over here, but like having him like on the ropes, like pointing, like as if he was assigned here like a year and a half ago.

It's wild.

Same thing with like Matt Cardona, Like like Matt Cardona been asked you to come back for.

Years and years and years and years.

And to see him like in the middle, like front and center, like it's crazy because it's like, bro, like you've been wanting to get back here, You're not You're not fooling me.

You know.

It's kind of anti climatic too, fucking trick Wins walking in and then you just see move in the back, like.

Yeah, that that was it too, Like they could have pulled that off, but having everybody in the crowd.

And doing all that, I think it would have came off a lot better if you would have had them like storm the ring like during the match or something like that. But when you see like, oh, look in the crowd, look, it just takes something like the shine off of it, Like it just.

It felt like they were stalling.

Like it literally felt like they were stalling into that segment here because he's like, oh Moose is here, Oh fan Dangle was here or Dangle whatever?

Whoa whoa Steve Malin is here?

Okay, Oh random dude who took out Sammy Callahan is here? Random dude who uh is dating Steph the Lander is here? Like Okay, congratulations, want to cookie he deserves I think you did it.

Where's Mike?

Why it's Frankie Kazarian? Dude?

Like bro like like I'm.

Really instaid it looked like a youth pastor nigga youth fast after this nigga because do.

I don't know if anybody watches The Righteous Gemstones, but whatever the Sun's name is on that show, I don't fucking remember. I think his real name is fucking Adam. The nigga was on a w h recently, but he looked like that nigga because you bringing up youth pastors and I'm fucking dying right now, So thank you for that.

I appreciate it.

Yeah, I don't know if anybody should be the leader. That should have been Mike Santana. You should have been the one riding the right in the middle of it, whooping everybody. I think they tried if they had pulled it off, Like remember when NXT came and beat up everybody before Survivor series that year and they were just whooping niggas backstays like off rip from the whole show. They should have didn't like that bigga, wait for them to have a full on bro you niggas is out numbered.

I'm Ricky, I'm Ricky Saints. In this situation, I'm out of my business that nigga walked.

Who's the fire that the colle Caperty commercials were you to? Everybody? Right to the belt. I'm the man on the man and the man.

He's like, y'all got that. I'm coming from that.

Excuse me, iconics, that's a belt right here.

I need the inspiration, the iconic inspiration. Ah ah boom.

I like that.

You feel me?

Okay, cool, I'm talking about I'm with it.

I'm with it.

Let's go ahead and move the conversation for uh the big app What is your excitement level for n x T No Mercy. I'm giving it a point three, then says the two three. C J is giving it a three.

Two and a half. I don't watch the show.

That's a reason why it's getting a point three for me hard and I said, yeah, it's about right.

Like literally, I was genuely confused when when Ben was like, yeah, we go do no mercy permitted promotion, permits predictions, I'm like what.

I was like, No, there's no count nigga. It's pally no nigga we're not doing it.

I was like, yo, that's happening this week and look, and I googled it was like, no.

I had no idea this is this week, but here n XT no mercy this upcoming weekend. Uh for some reason, uh w w E doesn't want to upload the the the match graphic for Josh Briggs and uh for uh yeah, so uh yeah, here we are. I'm gonna play this and on the other side we'll do predictions.

Which the same.

All right, man, the first match we're gonna go over fucking we might as well talk about it here and now since they don't have the graphic for it, and get it over with. Javon Evans versus Josh Briggs. Who y'all got who we going with?

Chat?

Feel free to chime in let us know your thoughts and your prediction on this show as well.

Oh yes, we got to get match results.

In my bed, I will never pick Josh Briggs by pinfall.

I like that long be a rollo. Get Briggs out of.

You, young o g via pinfall.

You tell that Mayvin versus Good Live type booking? Yeah, type thing.

I think they already they already had this match on next year. A couple of weeks ago, right.

Yeah, they had the match and Javan Evans lost, so like they're gonna run it back.

Javon's gonna get his one back.

And I'm hoping that they set him up to like to actually like go on like a run where he actually gets the championship, because it feels like that's always been the thing. It's like, yeah, we gonna We're gonna put you right up there, and I'm I have no problem with the way that he's being booked in n XT currently as opposed to what would happen if you got on the main roster. So I just have f I keep my faith they shawt Michaels right now for the booking of Javon Evans, but like, yeah, you gotta

In a way Big Action. Speaking of getting the title on somebody, The next match on the card is for the Women's Championship. Jacy Jane defends against Lola Ice CJ. Give us your pick first. I know you're excited about something in this match, However that might be.

It's the wrong thing too. I gotta go jay C Jaye Man, I think that I don't think they believe a Lolavice like that. Yo, I got to roll up up. I don't think I think they're doing a little too much of you know, just especially with the way they rode off shorty, you feel me? I think jay Z Jangle have something to sleep to have like a new new member in there, you know what I mean? So I think that she's gonna win by like, yeah, Penn with you. I hate to see it.

Shout out to the chat, Josh says. J C b Shnanigans Andy said, yeah.

I got that was her real name.

She was in delatory doing nothing. Let's take an as beating bitches up and shaking ass afterwards, like damn.

Khalila is going with Lola as well. I am gonna go with j C Jane to retain. Hey, if Lola does win, maybe she'll bring in her sister to combat the other two girls, you feel me? And even the odds. What's her name nat Natalie and Natalia or something like that. Perhaps I don't care what her name is. Yes, she does look like.

Oh and her name is winner exactly.

Yeah, so whatever, whatever, you know what I'm saying, whatever, whatever is, whatever, whatever, bring that as hey man, hey man, sayman, sayman. The North American Championship is on the line. Uh, let's get that up out of here because it's some ass, but hey, let's let's let's check it out.

Man.

Ethan Page, the Greatest North American defends against Tavian Heights, And I feel like part of me is going to regret not caring about n XT at a time where tavan Heights is developing, because I might be missing out on some really good stuff with this kid.

But uh, I mean, once you get rid of the flag ship, he's actually getting.

Yeah, he is. He is really good, and he's really solid in the ring, and he's a little bit more development for character wise, but everything else, like he is really really sold.

The real star like of NXT right now is Ethan Paige, Like.

Is like he is firing on all cylinders when it comes to anything that's related to NXT.

Like he has like a lot, he has a lot of leeway.

Like we were talking about, like a few weeks ago, the possibility of bringing him up to the SmackDown and even keeping the title on him there, Like that's how good that he is.

That's what he like, he's down and he's really.

Cooking all ego by Canadian Thievery, I mean or pin but he's he's fucking has been putting his little putting his little making a little name for himself with Tavan. I don't know, man, he just seems like a lot of just like random, random good guy on n x T number seven.

To me, yeah, with Ethan Page to retain the championship ego death death, ego death by pinfall. Definitely going with Ethan Page there. So yeah, I don't what's the next match we should look at here? Oh hey, a weaponized steel cage match. This is uh, Blake Monroe and Jordan Grace the rematch. This rivalry continues. I don't know if this is the blowoff or if they will have another match after this? What do you think about the rival so far? And uh, how do you think that this closes out?

Ben?

I definitely think this will be a close out, but I think they'll, like they'll try to find a way to keep Jordan Grace around nx T at least until the Royal Rumble and you kind of shift her up around then. But I think this is like you're having the steel cage match and like the like with the weapons and everything like that. That's where you do the blowof you if you do anything else like after that.

Like, yo, let's do another one.

I can see them doing that, but after this match, it is one undercent not needed. Like Lake Monroe has been doing a really good job, like with the backstage vignettes and and kind of like switching up to a lot of people thought the character just like mean girl, like oh, like I'm being Caddy and talking.

About get back.

We were friends now we're not friends. But no, like that's not the character at all. The character is serial killer. Like that's what the character is. And she's definitely been conveying that in the last like.

Month or so. So I might have to say, Blake blakey pen.

I'm gonna switch it up and say via tk O with a weapon, you're not pass out.

I'm going with the Juggernaut.

But you know what I'm saying is she is she wins, they will do another match, like no doubt. If Jordan Grace wins.

Because this is what they're second.

Man, Yeah, that's how she cheated.

Ee mean, yeah, we got Khalil says Grace Dressers Grace by Grace Driver off the top through a table. God damn, that was descriptive.

You're right, you.

Know yah thin. I don't think Jordan.

Put it on the big app niggas. You can have it on record, you're gonna be saying that she's like remember that time I said at an hour eight fifty three that I changed my pick because the chat told me.

It was good.

Alright, that's hilarious the Speed Championship. But yeah, man, yeah, man, damn, I gotta watch the show, all right. He was over with yes, shout out to the black excellence. That is so ruka that she defends the Speed Championship against what's her name?

Laney Rain?

Yes, Lanny red Lane read.

Confusion of the what's her name Carmen. I don't have Carmen an easy to get confused on this card. So when I looked at the card and I said, oh, I'm safe, and then you Lamy and he was like, fuck, no, I actually know who Landey is. She She did that one promo like a couple of months ago on n XT. That was like real stupid where she popped out of nowhere and nobody knew who she was. I think she was on evolf and I'm like, okay, cool, this is

That's me like the time, so I understand.

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's all good man. I'm we all made our pics, right.

I think, oh yeah, y'all. Y'all thought Eli could stop the speed Champions.

To be a soul snatching so cause that.

Is the men's speed champion. Who's the Who's the men's speed Champion?

No? Nobody knows?

Was like, yues I didn't get to work you no more?

Okay, Grande Americano.

Actually what the Chad Gable version?

No, I think Ludwig wanted.

Uh. Matter of fact, it is the Chad aver version, but.

They just gave it a little wig because he took over the got you.

They're gonna send Pete don over there.

Let's go ahead and push to the main event, which is the NXT Championship match. Ricky Saints is challenging Oba Femei and trying to take that championship from the ruler. Will he be successful? C J, let us know who your pick is.

I got free way Ricky Saints by pinfall. He gets done. Finally. I was a little I was a little scared at first. I don't think you was gonna do it. But then at the end of n XT, well, all the niggas was fighting, and he just maneuverd his way through the crap smoothly, keeping his eye on the prize and got that. I was like, I believe him.

I believe that was your talent moment, the talent in the ring, and the drive and the and the and everything else that wasn't it. It was just the way that he just snuffed down there. I was just like, yeah, we look at his tile, everybody killing each other in the ring.

Yeah, it's the focus. You know what I'm saying. The objection keep your eyes on the prize. I'm focus going on to be here? Was that move? Probably? Excuse me? Nigga, like like, so I'm picking.

Up, I'm going with over for me to retain, and I think we see a different Ricky Saints on.

The other side of this match. I ain't gonna hold you.

I don't bet against the ruler, but I feel like it's gonna be an upset coming. I'm gonna have to go with Ricky via spear and pain because he ain't picking that big nigga up with with a roll shambo.

I'm just that's just not happening.

Yeah, I got soul man, so man, Ricky saints by panfall. It's time, bro, It's time over. Like y'all, like we we like you, You don't you? You know you're just doing side question around here now. You're just doing side missions like you've done everything. Like he's the like the longest ran against champion at this.

Point, or is he?

Like I think he's close.

I think the longest ring is all might be y'all wouldn't know.

It's pretty close about that one. The longest rain is.

Adam at how many days three ninety six got.

You in the United States? Four three and over?

Is that what?

Over? Let me?

He is currently at two hundred and sixty en counted.

Yeah, day, That's the only way I see them him retain if they just want him to break cold streak, Yeah, God.

Be real dirty to just to keep him around, just to be like, hey, just need you to break the street. Like even after he's out won the title, bec's like, let's be realized, he's outgrown this space like very much. So like he has definitely gotten everything that he can get out of being in developmental. It's now time to push him up to see if he can sink or swim. I'm kind of nervous to see how triple As books him, but like, yeah, it's like, bro, we taught you everything that we could teach you.

Bro, Like it's it. It's in guy's hands.

Yeah, see, so we got that. That is a no mercy. So I can congratulations to Ricky Saints if he wins. Congratulations to opfet Me if he wins. Hey, look, I just hope everybody has funds. I'm sick about this black on black crimes is unnecessary. We should love each other, we should support each other, you know what I'm saying. So that's all I'll say on that.

Versus dark skin never dies, you know what I'm saying.

Like, we gotta we gotta move beyond. We gotta beyond this whole colorism stuff, you know what I'm saying. Versus literally, Ben, can you please your letter grade on the design for the A W Women's Tag Team Champions.

Uh as a B minus.

I'd put it at A if they have like the little white uh little white strap on it, like but I feel like there's too w.

Is but you know, I give it, I give it, I give it a B. I like the designs.

I like that that the belts are actually like they look like they're not like toys or it's something like that you see on the shelf, because like like a w's notorious, like when they introduce women's titles, they'll be like really like small looking and so not like these titles actually look like they're proportionate to the women that are holding them.

All right, Gresh, what do you think about the a W Women's Tag Team Champ?

Not a fan?

It's lazy. Could have they could have did something different with the design. It's lazy.

I'm sorry why you say they're lazy? Is it too too similar.

Similar to the men? It's too similar to the men.

Like you went above and beyond to make it look different for the TBS and T and T title, the a W World title and the Women's World title. I'm like you could have could have through some through some sauce on on the women's tag team titles even.

Got a butterfly on something.

Like this was saying like that it's not the end of the world.

But I just like, yeah, when I woke up, I was like, because obviously I fell asleep on Dynamite, but I was like, ah, damn, that's it.

That's all y'all got.

Okay, just put women's tag team on the belt instead of y'all got the new aw logo as opposed to the original one on the men's That's the only thing that sets them apart.

But the overall, the overall.

Appearance is the same.

I'm like, yeah, could have ya, could have did a little something different, but it's not the end of the world.

CJ. Great the title, man, that's a that's a C minus dog. You tell that it was if you tell that both set the title for made at the exact same time, they just didn't know what to do with the other two. Absolutely, yeah.

It was like, Okay, I think we got enough of women's tag teams where we can pust out of fucking bust these belts out now.

Okay, okay, okay, cool, So let's expand the conversation. I'm glad that you mentioned that who are some of the teams that you guys are expecting to be a part of this women's tag team division. Who do we see that can be a part of of this tournament and piece together? You know what I'm saying some symblance of aggression. I see you, I see you making that face. So I'm gonna throw to you first.

You know, you know who's on the show.

In the women's tag division, brother go.

Outside of take Hunting and Anna j and possibly Stanton Harley Cameron, I don't know who else is there that is a team like, uh, what is it? Julia Harden Skoyt Blue, maybe Queen Almanada and Mina shar Cairo if they want to go, or Mina and Tony.

I think Tony is like is the more like the like top pairing that they're probably gonna do? And uh, your name has been asking around on x or Twitter or whatever you call it about who's gonna be her tag title co champions? Should they go after the titles? And honestly, like, I think it would be a cool parent to see her and the being a team back.

Up that would be that's that's like, that's like Kevin Durant and Steph Curry and Kevin Durant. That's good at that time, and it was the niggas gonna run through everybody. That's gonna be a fucking hell of a tag like who else I've seen lay Lane.

Athena responded to that with a little eyebrow. You know, I'm thinking about it. That's a bad idea type thing. But I'm gonna be honest with you. Mercedes should be protesting this entire thing. Her record in a W and tag team matches is horrible. All of her partners have let her down so far. These are the only somewhere saying.

It's like when was winning all those Wrestlmania's back and back and married niggas and then all then like every other year or whatever they like, he lost that wrestle media is so you can't say he married everybody. That's what it is with the with the tag titles, see it not under over here?

Yeah, I think you guys are right. Julia Hart, Scott, Blue, Chris and Harley, possibly Tony Storm and Mina, Athena and Billy Starks if not Athena and Mercedes.

Uh, I say Willow and Willow and Queen could get together.

Willow and Queen would be an interesting That'll be a good little pair.

Carly Bravo asked Shane Taylor if there was room for one more spot in st P to make Tricia Dora and Queen Amanada a tag team.

Look at you watching r I just.

Harley say that on Twitter.

Oh never mind.

Actually you could pay me.

You could actually pay me. I could keep baught.

Could I kind of got to do this show, So.

Yeah, you could pay us to watch watch along on Patriarch. I like that.

I like that us to watch Ring of Honor. And that is a message to Tony Kahan, who didn't think one time when he announced these tag team titles.

I don't think you know how to blink. I've accepted that.

Y c J.

You said something about Lacy Lane.

Yeah, I've seen that. She was on she was on the on the Twitter spaces on the Twitter trying to summon the Ninja Warrior woman back. See if they want to hop up in there, that would be a nice little surprise, Like a little surprise. Entrant I said, oh my god, look at the party flippy girls.

Man, they should never do that again.

Yeah, let that be what it is for me. Old girls said she's finna go back to Ninja Warrior, so you.

Know it again for real.

Yeah, that's what she said in interview.

I don't know.

I didn't even know that ship still came on nig They come on like some weird spot on NBC and they like playing, like on like the weird channel that they used to have a sports channel on DirecTV.

I don't know nobody does either. It's okay.

They played on Peacock. That's where they that's why, that's why they played.

Hey man say man uh Darby Allen challenged John Moxley to an I quit match at Russell. He came out there with a with a flamethrower and said he this, this is what we're doing.

I had people sign uh well a willness agreement because that that ship would have hit somebody.

Yeah.

That's when I was thinking.

The entire time was like one sneeze in the whole front row is gone.

Bro, like it's over.

But see, I want to ask you, what is the betting odds that that John Moxley gets set on fire in this match? And I just like, oh I can getting set on fire and I'm rolling around, what's the what's the odds that he actually gets like skin like damage.

I wonder, like like Michael Jackson and that Pepsi commercial skin damage.

All right, let's go on.

Just like it was right.

We was right here. You just had to.

He got already, you see, That's why you had that look on his face when he saw that flamethrow. He was the whole ship. Get up, man, I think it's I think he's gonna get that skim bubbling. Yeah, I give about about six cent, you know what. I'm saying that three to one through what eyes that happens, you know, I mean, I'm taking the points on that one. I'm taking the points on him getting burnt the fuck up for real. I think it's gonna be just like something.

On them to He already got burnt at all out and didn't give a fuck about it at all. Like didn't show no type of like selling. He didn't have no tape or nothing. I don't know what you would do to show like burn injuries or whatever. But he looked perfectly fine.

Then he burned. Then he set his butt on fire.

It was like his whole like his head was sticking out of the fucking thing. It was kind of fucked up, like.

He should have been litting up something.

Yeah, you know it was through a bag. I bet you have a strong bag. I could see him put him in a coffin and setting the whole coffing on fire, like through the bottom of Look.

Like this is a step back from the coffin match, Like is this the blowoff? Like we go from a coffin match, like basically a casket match to an I click match, Like is this good enough?

The coffin match should have been to blow off?

I doing shit with fire if they just finna have an equipment.

Because I think that might be the only way that one of the niggas will quit they get set on fire. I don't think I still think Darby gonna say anything. I think he's gonna let himself burn up. He's gonna pop out let me.

You know, I bet that point now when it comes to Darby's booking, I don't question it no more like this.

You give me a headache, I give.

I asked Ben the other day on our Russell Paluza All out recap. By the way, we did three recaps this weekend make sure y'all tap into him. If you ain't tapped into him, that's fucking craziest unheard of. I

Scared for your life right now, dog pull out gun.

Niggas literally running around. You gotta thought the gun.

At this point, you might have to pull out the switch on this.

Nigga, like one of them like act me like bombs or whatever, just just like handed to them and just like walk out.

Yeah, it's gonna be something like that.

Like honestly, bro, just bro, throw throw Darby off of the stairs again and just throw a bomb this time to make sure he stays dead.

To be you got to strap that nigga to a rocket or something and like strap him to a rocket and meet me. That's the next thing you gotta do.

So you got packed back looking like an he can literally pull it off, just say meet me, yeah, close it out.

Yeah.

But this whole like I quit matter is definitely gonna be very interesting to see because like you look at the mass that they had like previously, like putting the fork in the ears and doing all the crazy stuff. So this eye quick match is going to probably be one of, if not the most gruesome match that a W has shown thus far.

So pretty much good luck to them.

We just seen this Nigga mox tap out like three months ago. That's funny to be.

But he still ain't so getting hung that's crazy.

He was.

This MJF is taking a break. He said that he's not coming back until he's like the most dangerous version of himself that he could possibly.

Be going on honeymoon, yes, and finish this movie.

Violent Knight is filming right now, I think somewhere in Vancouver, and he's got to finish those commitments. And yes, eventually, I'm I'm sure he's gonna take a break and go on up honeymoon with his wife. She was actually on Dynamite last night, so see if she isn't on Dynamite next week, and if she happens to take a break. We'll know what's going on.

Good luck to them.

Sad about m j F and his vow to return as they.

Can make that same about every other business day. I'm not moved by that.

Got you ask the tattoo the dog. But it sounds good, you know what I mean? It will sound good like it sounds like yo, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, son, I'm gonna pick you up this weekend. We're gonna go to We're gonna go to the to the movies.

And I'm trying to get triggered.

Let's not do that. Oh my god, Oh my god, man, Like, what do you Why are you making promises that you can't keep. Bro, You're gonna just turn back into the same person that you were.

I'm not gonna lie. I was moved.

I was definitely moved because he's stuff in there that he has said before, like he's he has had the problem where he was like, yo, I got to be more evil, like I like I've been slacking, like where he said like the friendship with Adam Cole made him soft. So he's he's given a promo similar to this before a couple of times. The thing that got me was he kind of like he sat down, he kind of broke it down more. He's like, I don't even feel like I'm in jail. I feel like I am a

It just feels like he like he's just.

Been stopped a lot and lately, like he this is like his this would be like his second break with AW and like sometimes so it's just like you know, to start and stop or whatever.

It's kind of like getting kind of rough.

So like if he's stepping away, I am one hundred percent cool with it. To really get yourself together, hone in on the character you want to be, hone in on on what made you special before and what made you stand out, and just get back to that because he's been trying to balance like the acting and the wrestling and the other things that he's doing on the side, and I like to see it when he just like

What do you think?

Yeah, good luck like everything he just said.

But I'm just like, do something different, honestly when you come back, because if you're just gonna come back just to yell in my face, then I don't care because I've mastered toning people up.

It's interesting that you say that, because he did mention in that promo he said, I don't even have the energy to yell. I'm like so disappointed in myself. I'm not angry enough to yell about this. I just, you know, like he had a different tone to it. I'm interested to see what happens, but at the same time, I'm not interested because I don't know how much range he had.

So we'll see when he gets back, you go, We'll see.

When he's back. So what will we see when Adam Copeland gets back because he pretty much said the same thing this week after what happened to his wife, Beth Copeland. Yeah, and she got a spike pile driver. We just met her and she got hurt, and we're supposed to feel sympathetic.

Okay.

Fdr ftr's promo on this was really funny. It was like that was like, hey, bro, like, I like my vision was blurry.

I grabbed her. I thought she was I thought she was cope. We we did that accident, but you know you.

Said and had her out of here, bro, Like, that's on you, So you gotta hear you that blame yourself. And I was the one that told her to come out there, Like that's not on me, that's on you. It's very just like a masterful way of just like going about it. So I really like the spend Day put on the Nigga.

Said, my nose is broken, and you hit me in my broken I was just trying to check my friend when you was attacking him.

And then when you hit me, my nose got bloodied and my eyes teared up and I couldn't see and I thought you was your husband, So I accidentally dropped you on your.

Head you do.

Y'all both built different, comping you to the road.

Bigger than that nigga.

Yeah on this day.

True, you can tell das country because he said, Yo, you watered my eyes.

I was like, yeah, like you cut your hell.

It's the same nigga. I love my Wow.

Yeah he was my old lady was no better than get up in there. What I'm saying seemed like you would have to seem like you're not the one that's hit of your household like me, I win in this house. If your would have, say the woman's place, you wouldn't be where she is. Like whoa, all right, you got the mustage. Yeah he got the mustad for it.

Yeah, yeah, you got.

He gotta get in the kitchen, mustad keep break in the kitchen.

Yeah.

But Coke and Joe Burrow is Coke Joe Burrow. Is he gonna be the comeback player.

Of the year?

Then is he gonna be what comeback? Fuck?

No?

Yeah, because coming back you come back.

No, he's not gonna be a comeback player of the year. And all you niggas that's thinking. He's finna go and face John Cena. There's a little thing that I'd like to introduce you to called contract.

Contracts over twenty twenty five, but I'm like, bro, that means twenty twenty six.

That was the fucking type of there you go.

Y'all gonna be mad as hell when you'll find out the reason why he's gone is the fun Percy Jackson in the Olympians.

Y'all go'll be real mad.

When he come back in three months, because like the way that this kind of took off, because PW Insider has already reported that this is not gonna happen, that he's still under contract with AW that he celested time under there. In fact, like the interview that he did

So none of that makes sense.

And I need people to put on their thinking cash like use your brain, like y'all got. Y'all got excited when John Cena did the speed and then Edge responded by doing that you can't see me at all out now, what makes you think that adew would amplify that video.

And put it out everywhere.

If they had any plans of letting this man walk and go have the match, why do you think they would softly promote him going and having that match on John SEMA's like final Farewell Tour.

What that was like, could y'all take give you an inch? Y'all take a mile?

Like? What that was was him just like them in good face, saying like you know, we know you can't get back over there.

We'll do something nice and you could kind of just salute him on this show.

But why in the world would they ever like say like okay, and like I continued to last night, like he's says I'm I'm I gotta go take care of my family, and everybody thought instantly, oh, he's gonna.

Go to WWE.

Why would they let him announce that on their show that he was leaving to go back and again more promotion to a match that they would have and give them business. Y'all are not using your brains, Benjamin.

A lot of these fans the elevator doesn't go all the way up to the penthouse.

Drugs ad pull the clip of Adam doing the salute.

I mean on I mean on their platforms like everybody else, like they ate it with the d NCA, like they were putting it on their like Twitter, Instagram YouTube like oh did you see?

Yeah, that's I don't look, I don't think it's happening.

I don't.

I don't give a fuck about the match. It wasn't a rivalry. That was my cup of tea. But it's you know, significant for him, however, shouldn't happen. It is what it is. So with MJF being gone for a while, Adam Copland is gonna be gone, likely for just a couple of weeks, until these niggas turn their sights on Christian and realize he's alone and beat him up again. Then oh, oh my god, Okay, now we can do this, Dad,

Good sell Roger Strong to the Undisputed Areas. To me, she's gonna get there eventually, try to draw it out or yeah.

Or.

They could use this to double back and eventually link her back up with Willow Nightingale and they win the tag top.

I was gonna say, or swerve nigga and then Willow joins and turns on her and then Boom title program.

Or she joins back up with Willow and sacrifices there to join the U join death Riders.

I mean because there's you spend.

Yeah, like she like sacrifices there, like yo, man, they said they said I had Like they said I had the body if I was gonna join. Really you that couldn't He couldn't.

Cuddy, Yeah, I threw you do there already, but they was like, now somebody for real.

I was like, that's hilarious. So I don't know, man, maybe they are delaying it. I personally think if they did.

This, they shouldn't.

They shouldn't go back that directly.

It is what it is.

Hangman defeated Lee Moriarty in an open challenge, so that happened. And then, of course we already talked about the a W women's tag titles, So there's that. Let's bring up the PWI list for twenty twenty five. Standing at the top of the mountain. Pro Wrestling Illustrated the thirty fifth annual issue is none other than the undisputed WWE champion, Cody Road Back to Yeah, back to back. You feel what I mean? What do we think about this list? You feel me?

CJ.

Have you seen the Top ten? What do you think about how how this whole thing played out?

Yeah, I think I think I think cod you can't go wrong Cody at number one. You know what I'm saying, you know what I mean. So I wasn't really surprised by that. Max at two. You feel me, seth, you know what I mean, Like, that's that's that's not a bad saying, not a bad little Jay Huso was there and I was like, yeah, he for the year that he had, he deserved to be up there. See a

Cool. So for those that didn't see the list. The top ten is as follows, and we're gonna go from ten down to one. At number ten will Ospray nine Measty Cole. Then we have Seth, Rollins, Swerve, Strickland, Jay Usso at number five, Hiroki Godo Hangman, Adam Page, Gunther, John Moxley, and at number one it's Cody Ben go ahead, hey man.

I shout out to a Rokey Gold. I don't know. I didn't know my man was still getting.

Down like that. Man, go ahead to the laistes Bro. I didn't know you're still moving like that at here.

Bro much love, but uh, I'm not mad.

And Cody getting the number one spot, he had a hell of a year even though he lost the title. The climb back is what put him in contention with that in him winning like the King of the Ring and winning the title, it's almost impossible not to have him in that slot because like he has done a lot, like even though he lost the title at Russell Minne, he has been consistent even like even in like his actions, like even now, like he has been like people like

Everybody is just its sound. It's very sound.

Crush right the top ten or grade the top ten.

Sorry, from my personal preference, I give it a solid B, like everybody's right where they need to be. I can't really coming too much on the New Japan portion because I have not seen New Japan since twenty twenty two.

Is maybe twenty one. It's so much pressling going on. I can only consume so much.

But yeah, like I feel like everybody, especially Cody, like I know a lot of people love to troll online and say, oh, here goes Cody with the forgetful title rain, Like you can't say that with a straight face. This man, Like, if you look at Hit the m Ring work from when he won the title the first time until this second time, outside of him leaving for a month of Street Fighter, his title reign is actually very memorable. You just want to be a hater because he's not Roman.

Do you guys think Godo and Cody getting rolls in the Street Fighter movie has anything to do with their p WI place?

Probably Ryan Rookie Girdle in there. I know he was still making noise like that. He was like igp avyweight champion I think at the beginning.

Of this year.

Yeah, for sure.

The criteria is in ring achievement influence, which is visibility and prestige within a promotion and or the industry. So right there there it is technical ability, competition and activity.

So yeah.

Also August first, twenty twenty four to July thirty first, twenty twenty five is the evaluation right after Cody won the Yeah, just right after he won the King of the Ring.

Okay, yeah, he was.

At the end of June, right, So yeah, and then you go, you get that elsewhere on the list. There's a couple of other people I can just like, no, just randomly throw out there. Okata is at number eleven, CM Punk at fifteen, shout out to Jacob five two at number twenty sixteen is Bandido? Uh you got VIKINGO at twenty nine, MJF at thirty. Bron Breaker landed at twenty four and it was a Saluta Maascar of Dorada.

Chuck Willie at nineteen.

You know what I'm saying, that's big action man.

Well right past great? What's your great grandmo though? Joe Henry b twelve that's an FT.

Was fucking on the list. He's not on this list, but yes, Jelly He's not on this page, but Jelly Roll made the fucking list, So throw everything.

Ain no way, what number was me?

I think he was like thirty eight or something.

Yeah, he's definitely be way too high for he's what Yeah, with one match he jumped up and he made it to thirty eight because of relevancy and in ring achievement.

I am on here at thirty eight.

Competition activity jelly Aren't you so excited and so happy about Jelly Roll making the list?

Ben, I don't see him on the last Yeah, that's how you know he's not happy.

He doesn't even believe it.

I don't believe I don't believe it.

Why, like right there at thirty eight it is below radio or no, yep, thirty two.

That's got to be.

Sick like it's a it's a guys, guys gods.

Think you imagine if you below Jelly Roll, you'd be like, real.

My whole life, dude, this is all I ever dreamed up?

And I get all right, brom.

Like that might made me quit. Bro, I'll be real with you, like I might quit after that.

Ben, you wanted to ask us a question regarding the situation with main event Jay Usso and the megastar.

L A Night.

What's what's going on with these two guys?

What do you what do you say?

I wanted to know where do you guys see this rivalry? Having this conclusion? I started with you see Jay, because this has been going on for a little bit and they've kind of gone back and forth with each one, kind of like one upping each other and kind of like taking their vengors. Where do you see this like coming to an end? Where what do you think would be the finale of this rival?

Yesterday you got damn should have been yesterday. I'm tired of like what is this doing? Like like I could understand like the friendly competition ship, like like oh will you hit me first? I'm gonna hit you back, and then like you turn return it to the old me. Like it just feels real. It doesn't really like it looks like a direction list. It's like like a one big long mini game, you know what I mean. It looks fun. Then you kind of w some structure and

I mean yeah, like that's kind of how I felt, like like what you said, like, oh the like usually when it plays out like you hit me, I hit you rivalry or whatever, Usually that lasts about maybe a couple of weeks. We have the multiman match that we had, like the match that they had a clash in Paris, and then after that we don't cause test anymore.

It's over.

But for whatever reason, it just kept going crash, Like, what do you see the conclusion?

I see Juso continually crashing out and I and I basically hope they I see them give us a reason on why they're dragging their feet with this because I said it. I think I said it a couple of times.

And then on on that it's like.

Why is jau So really being LA and I y'all not friends, y'all always y'all, y'all were never friends, So why do you care so much? It's like, yeah, I don't really, I don't. In short, I don't really care about the final. I just wanted to be old. I'm just gonna be real like because there's no there's no way because if I in order for me to create a scenario that there's a finish, I would have to care. And I'm they're losing because I'm like, Okay, this is

What's new? He still comes out in Yeat all the time. Nothing's changed.

Is it really a crash out or is he just like he's like, I gotta get my merch off all right now I can crash out a little.

Bit, turning back into the old. Well, I don't know.

This week he came out in all black. He didn't have it on any of the Yeat merchandise, He didn't have the Yeat written on the glasses or nothing like that. You feel me, Oh, I don't think that they're making a real turn away from like the the hyper focused marketing that they're doing with that character. But I do think that they are kind of toying with, you know, the layers of who he is right now. I think maybe this determines which one of them gets into the

Or you know what?

Is this even big turn La night Hill?

He's literally gonna be the same character because his character as a heel that well.

I get two good guys just not like each other.

I like that.

Too, honestly, now that I really think about it.

The reason why I couldn't come up with a conclusion is because I feel like I'm on the part where hey, let's beef, but let's not change anything, like just I don't like you just because we need more of those types.

I like anything else, guys.

No, man, the LFA Black Chaos is happy to join you, guys.
