Speaker 1

Hey, this is Brian Alvarez and this is today's edition of the Wrestling Observer Daily podcast on the eight Side Network. Let's get it all. How's it going, everybody? Brian Albarez here on Wrestling Observer Live. We are here every day Monday through Friday, now Pacific three Eastern Sunday three Pacific sixth Eastern Saturday mornings. Had in Pacific one Eastern with Old Gym Valley a ha dne over here. I've I've

inadvertently become a smoker. We had the worst air quality on the earth on the Earth yesterday and it is no better today. I just can't breathe. So I'm gonna do my best here on the program. Today. We're gonna get rain here in Seattle. I know some of you think, well, of course you're gonna get rainy in Seattle, but in fact, in fact, I don't think Seattle has had rain since uh late June early each lie there was there was one weekend where it rained and it was all out

weekend and I was gone. So I live in Seattle. I have not seen rain in about three months now, and the rain will hopefully come today and wash away all of this smoke, so we will no longer be the city with the worst air quality on the planet. I hear we rival Venus right now, do you know that? Anyway, we got a lot of news to get into here today. We talked about a double n n x C yesterday because in fact the show has aired on Tuesday this week, and so today we'll talk about the fallout. Yes, we

have the ratings. Everybody's favorite discussion and that'll be that'll be fun. And we've also got notes on Darby Allen talked about his match with Jeff Hardy, where Darby Ellen said that that he thought that could have been the end for him. And that's Darby Allen saying that, So we'll tell you what he had to say about that. We've also got miss He is dealing with an injury, a burst, a burst bursa sack, yet he's still wrestling,

So it's gonna be interesting. We'll tell you about that and uh and more and a day of feedback from you the listeners. Maybe I'll even open up the phone lines back in the momp with more abs your live come by day com cough byday seeing. And I think it's me that can's something that I won't try, but imagine all right back here in the show, right, Albert is here wrestling Observer Live. Mike's here, give it. It's impossible to believe. Why are you shocked about that? I'm

here every day except half the last week. At the beginning of this week another yes, well I'm gone tomorrow. Oh so good luck. Now, I know you were setting me up like that. I almost was gone today, but I decided I would do my job. Where where are you going? Well, I wasn't going anywhere, but my my little one goes to outdoor preschool. And guess well, we can't do outdoor pre school today because the air quality is the worst on earth. So uh yeah, it didn't

make some changes. But anyway, let's talk about the news here on this day of armageddon. With the air quality sixty, should we see where it is today? Does anyone care except me? I mean I care a lot because I'm I'm hacking to death here. Well, you know, in a couple of days, I guess I'll care because of those jet streams that come over. But it's really bad out there. I guess the air quality right now is two oh four. It should be under fifty. So two or four? Is

uh Los Angeles way worse, way, way worse in Los Angeles. Actually, I wonder what, Yeah, what is l A on a normal day. I don't know, but I'm trying to see. There was another there was another one I had here that world wide maybe I guess a worldwide air quality, which is the word. Yeah, let's see. Well, the good news is we're now we're now below India. Delhi, India is at two sixty three. We're two, so we're number two. That's that's nice. Beijing is it one seventy? There? It

couldn't be more clear there? Oh no, I'm sorry. Now we're at this moment we're actually number one to forty. So you keep complaining about this, a volcano is going to go off to and really just iced the cake for you. Yeah, Seattle in Portland are number one and two right now, and then Beijing number three, Wu Hand number five, the infamous Wu Hand province. Yeah, it's pretty horrible. Here, okay, here's the here's the ratings. You know what I had, Yes, already,

a vintage Twitter. I got to put up the head to head and everybody got to go all crazy. But here it is Dynamite on Tuesday this week did seven fifty two thousand viewers, down twenty three point five percent from last Wednesday, lowest audiences October last year, when it aired on a Saturday eighteen to forty nine eight on

cable with a point to six. Then we've got an x T six seventy six thousand viewers, down eight point three percent from last week twelve on the charts with a point one eight rating, which is up from last week actually year over year. We got all that kind of stuff right here. So, uh, the gist of it is in the in the viewership a W one seven fifty two to six seventy six and in the eighteen and forty nine Dynamite one with a with a point

to six to uh to a point one eight. You know, I don't I don't like to, uh, you know, twist a knife or anything like that, but I gotta I got a buddy in w W. He's always arrassing me and you as well. And uh, you know, the other day I was talking about how um you know we're doing We're doing the Observer radio show on Tuesday instead of Wednesday this week because the shows are head to hit on Tuesday, and he says, he goes, oh, yeah, why why aren't you doing it Wednesday? Are you afraid

for when the ratings come in? And I was like, well, first off, I don't care either way, number one, number two, it wasn't even my call. So anyway, you know, he he thought that we were avoiding doing the show on Wednesday because we have talked about the ratings. Well, what does that indicate? That indicates to me that he thought that an XT was gonna win. Yeah, that's what I would pickure. So it didn't win, and then you know what he says, because well, we weren't trying to win.

The only winners were the fans, Brian, I'll rest the only winners with the fans. They were just trying to provide a bounty. A bounty. Look at one point four to eight million people, is that? What is one point four to eight million people joined in on that bounty or at least filled in their Nielsen books with that, as opposed to the sports that they were watching. Because for both n x T and a W they were both down. Obviously I a W want a different night,

But the bottom line is the two hockey games. Again, depending on what city you're in that actually matters. The NBA Games opening Day, for heaven's sakes, with eighteen to thirty four, eighteen to forty nine of me, come on, get out of here. So I got more major in Major League Baseball. So I mean, what can you do? Both of these shows? What are you doing? And I I couldn't figure out why. First first, all I hear is that I'm the only person that loves It's my

favorite show. I love n x T. I'm the number one flag bearer for n x T. You are you are the Then they go head to head. Andyone's like, oh, he's gonna have an agenda? Now, well, which is it? Is it my favorite show that I'm the flag bear? Four? Do I have an agenda for a w Cut to the chase? Here, let's cut to the chase. Both of these shows did great. I know some of you don't want to believe it, but that's that's true. Both of

these shows did great dynamite. Yeah, obviously they were well below there there one million, nine thousand or whatever, but like, what were you expecting? They were moved to a different night. They were going headdad with n XT and a whole bunch of sports, and if you exclude sports programming, they were the number one show on cable. If you exclude sports program For n x T, they were like number four. So both of these shows, given the circumstances, they both

did great. But everyone has to freak out, well, this and that and whatever. I can't just say they did really good. You'll have to see. No, they actually did great. Do you do you know? Okay? What what was Dynamite down from last week? Uh? They were down? Okay, do you guys want to go and look at how far SmackDown was down when they had to move to FS one on a different night. They were down like sixty dude, moving to a different night hurts everybody. It hurts w W E and heard say w it would hurt n

x T, it would hurt. It would hurts everybody. And they actually held up remarkably well and charted very well and quite frankly n XT with competition with a w competition, bro, they did better than they do with no competition. So yeah, everybody did great on Tuesday night. That's the story. My favorite show smashed them. What do you think some of these people would have done back in the day when it came to raw being moved for the dog show in the U. S Open and whatnot. I think they

would have complained about ratings there too. There was a lot of complaining in the mid nineties, guys. Don't. Don't get us wrong. The difference was there was no Twitter. It was all confined to forums and chat rooms and whatnot. People make fun of the super followers thing, but man, my super follower Twitter is the greatest Twitter ever. It's like, I post some stuff, everybody's real nice about it. The comments are all polite, and you know, everybody enjoys doing whatever. Man.

That that that commoner's Twitter. Oh peasant Twitter. It is peasant past system. Now with the twitters with you, I really don't think four ninety nine a month is like a cast system here. You know what, dude, I went to the grocery store the other day. I got a block of cheese. You know what cheese cost me? At the story You're getting a block of cheese, just like a little just like a little thing of cheese. Nine dollars.

And then then I wanted to get a one little package of of tortillas because Passy has been in a case of eas lately. Seven dollars. Where are you sewing safely? My god, I'm not even going to expensive whole foods or whatever. CALLI yeah, I know what I know. It's inflation, you idiot. I'm pointing out I didn't inflate the price of my super followers. My super followers for a month is less than a pack of tortillas. So I don't want to hear about it. Stop getting her friends imported

cheeses to friend imported cheese. It was in the cheese section. Oh, let me grab a thing of cheese. It's allay, what kuda or whatever? I don't even know what that is? Delicious, actually nice mild cheese. No, DJ was safe way cheese. What are your other options out there? You got like, I don't know if I spent I spent ten minutes talk about nothing. I love it. Now we're gonna do more after the break. Observer Live Off taking that behind my back back in the show. Bran Over is here.

Wrestling Observer Live miximber viv also Wrestling Observer dot Com. Flabbergasted what you know? Last night on the Brianant Video Show, we had Brian is ms. Everyone tried to to to uh you know, verbally express the essence of me. A couple of people did a good job. Oh yeah, by doing an imitation or well no, I mean my favorite the winner was all chopped, no pork. But anyway to think that, you blokes on this chat, don't think I used the gimmick phone number at safe Way and get

a discount. I mean, come on, who do you think I am? I think I go to Costco. You use the gimmick phone number. Hey, you type in your phone number discount. Oh you don't know about this? Uh, explains with the gimmick phone number. Now I'm gonna start using it here. See if it works. See if somebody signed up with your information around one of these places by me Carl Anderson. Yeah, I mean this is a shocking story.

I'm not even sure that I can Carl. Carl Anderson will not be defending his never open weight champion ship on November five. Get Out New Japan had previously announced Anderson would face Hikolao on the Battle Autumn Tour stop on Raw this week. However, it was revealed the Good Brothers will team with a j to take on Judgment Day at Crown Jewel on the same date, and a video posted to a social media on Wednesday, Anderson says New Japan didn't run the November five date by his

booking agent and tag partner, Doc Gallows. First, I hope that's a shoot, and the Doc Gallos is his business agents as sex Ferguson there please the Good Brothers confirmed they will not be doing the New Japan show. Gallows begins in the video New Japan Pro Wrestling. A few questions. Are we the o G Bullet Club? Yes? Are we the world famous Good Brothers? Yes? Are we rapping out

Sea on Monday Night Raw? Yes? And do all bookings still go through the Big l G when it comes to Bright Lights when it comes to the Good Brothers, Yes, they do. So here's here's the here's the two things here. You know. When when he first signed w W, E is a never open weight champion, the claim was that he would drop the title. Okay, and uh, I don't. I don't like to be that guy. You know what,

I am the guy. It's the essence of Brian is m. I said, do this thing, guy, this guy is gonna drop the title and everyone said yeah he is, No, he actually is. And Dave on the show even started listing off. You know, these people signed and then they ended up they dropped their titles before. But what he didn't know was before somebody make a list for me. How many people have signed with w w E okay and not dropped the title and then debuted okay, but

they debuted and then dropped the title. How many anybody? I can think of? Zero row? So what a shocker. He debuts on raw and now he is not. Now granted, there's two things here. He was double booked, which means that he has a booked for another date after the first date by w w E. So he is unable to to make that show. But I mean, I guess it's possible that he could later go to New Japan and drop that title. Oh yeah, yeah, I guess he could do it beforehand. You know, at the the New

York shows that are coming up. That would be a great time to do it. There's still matches to be announced for those shows. If you're going to do it, there will be a good time to do it. Now here's the other thing, the whole it goes one more now, correct if I'm wrong, Mike, and as a resident New Japan expert here on this program, I am not wrong. The rule in New Japan is if you get announced for a show and you do not make that date,

you are stripped of your title. And in fact, in fact, in fact, whether whether it was cleared with him or not is irrelevant because the same exact thing happened with Juice Robinson, where Juice Robinson had an injury, he wasn't ready to return, they booked him for a show anyway, he wasn't ready to return and could not make the date,

and they stripped him right. So, whether he was whether they cleared this with him or not, if he was announced for this show and he's not gonna be there for whatever reason, even if they adn't cleared with him first, New Japan historically should strip him of that title, which means he would not be dropping that title in New Japan. That's most likely the case. I think the thoughts of ever seeing him in New Japan a can are probably gone.

After that Instagram post yesterday, Rocky Romero posted right afterwards. I don't believe I could say all of it on the air, but requested that the belt be returned. It's possible that and I tried to reach out to people inside New Japan, didn't expect a response, didn't get a response, So we'll see if I get one before the show goes off the air. But I don't begrudge them for doing what they're doing, even though I don't go back

one bit. I'm just pointing out that I'm not saying that you are, and I'm just saying personally, I don't begrudge them for going go get your money. Adam and I talked about this on The Big Audio Nightmare, which is up free for subscribers right now wherever you get your favorite podcasts, and we talked about it more in depth.

But I don't blame them, but it's just you shouldn't have done the business that you were doing, and you should have just said we're signing with w w E New Japan right then and there should have pulled the belt off of them, because yes, there was a chance that cool Uncle Paul would be the coolest uncle in the whole wide world and allowed this to go on. But where have they ever had a history, as Brian mentioned,

of ever doing this. So it's it's a frustrating scenario for New Japan, but it's also one that they put themselves in by having Carl Anderson, who was not signed to a rock solid piece of paper for them to go over Hiroshitanahashi win that title. Now I did. I did think that there was an outside chance it could happen, because Hiko Leo is one of Hakku's sons, and you know with Tama Tong, and I actually thought that there could be a small possibility. But obviously that's not the case.

By the way, the name was brought up here on the chat, Alberto Alberto del Rio, al Patron and uh, in fact, it's exact same thing. He was the Triple A Mega Champion, he re signed with w w E. He was allegedly going to go to Triple Mania and drop the title there, and uh, I don want to guess what that happened. Oops, no, it did not. Have a lot of people really want to think that there's

a whole new world that Paula Beck is. Look, w w E is still w w E. Stephanie McMahon is still Vincent McMahon's daughter, and Triple h is still his son in law. They are wired a lot the same. They are concerned with number one, period, point blank. That's it, and that's all which is their company. They don't care about anything or anyone else. When it gets right down

to it. They could put on a public face and they could do a whole bunch of you know, uh, a whole bunch of flowery talk and this and that. But the bottom line is, when have they ever worked with anybody? When has a tiger ever changed its stripes? So there's going to be no change here Tony Khan acting disappointed about it, or anybody overly disappointed about it. And on the New Japan end, those are the brakes. That's w W E. Why would they work with you.

It's like when we were making the joke about Vince McMahon. You know, maybe he could join with a w and get back at the sun and let may come on, Vince McMahon would start his own thing before he went to somebody else's. They don't care about any of that other nonsense. Well, you know, he hasn't been stripped as of this exact second, So maybe might maybe, as you ridicule this idea, maybe he will return to New Japan and do a clean job in the middle of the

ring that somebody else and dropped that title. That would be nice, but it's not gonna happen, I don't think, but it would be he the right, you know, what's the right thing to do in pro wrestling, you know. But I mean, I guess if you're gonna screw over friends and things like that, because again going never going back there again. He needed the money from the Saudi

trip last time, talked about the pool he built. I guess there's a third pool he's going to be going to to build after he gets back from Saudi this time. But if you made a handshake agreement, and again it's the mistake of somebody who takes a handshake agreement over pen to paper. But there is also a thing for your word and what your word may mean. So if he did happen to give his word, and I don't know what he said to the people, that would be

the liaisons to New Japan. If he gave his word and then pulled back out of it, I can see why people would be pretty piste off. You know. The miss is dealing with a burst bursa sack schedule wrestled Dexter Loomis n Rah ended up attacking his opponent. The match never took place. He revealed that he's dealing with a burst versus sack and he's at his shoulder. Was

a little missed up. You know when I when I began reading this, I thought, well, you know, they did advertise a match with a stip on Raw and they totally did not deliver. But I mean, if the guy's hurt, I mean, how can I get mad about it? The guy's hurts, so maybe that's that's what happened. But then he reveals I'm wrestling Friday, and not only not only is he wrestling Friday, but he's wrestling a dark match. Listen, a bursta sack is not like a career ending threatening

injury or anything like that. But if the guy's hurt and he's not wrestled in three weeks and he's trying to heal his shoulder, why are you putting him in the ring in a dark match? He couldn't even wrestle. Dexter loomis on Raw and he's gonna do a dark match with a burst bursa sac card subject to change. We'll see what happens. Back in a moment with your calls. Observer Live. Yeah, back in the show, bring Elbert is here wrestling Observer Live, Mike simper Vit also Wrestling Observer

dot com. Hey, if you want to call us here today, eight four four nine one three seven is the phone number. That is eight four four three twenty seven twenty seven. But if you want to Texas, it is a different number. In is four to five seven eight zero seven five six six. And you don't call that number unless, like Vinny V's biggest fan, you're an idiot, and he was actually banned for calling that number repeatedly, and in fact it's now set up. So you you it'll do you

no good. Bryant Rustling Observer dot com. You mean he'll do you no good? It won't. It won't do any good. Just trust me what happens, It won't Brian at Rusting dot com at Brian Alvarez on Twitter, and of course you can super follow me on Twitter at Brian Alvarez as well. Almost time for a new magic trick, maybe a new fun video. Apparently your magic is making yourself disappear tomorrow off a year or so. You gave that to him for free. I'm actually doing uh, I'm doing

some business tomorrow. You'll all hear about soon enough. But you know what What's funny is if you're a super follower, you already know you know what we're gonna do here is when you go to the phones for something that I just I find despicable, but you know, teach their own you're on the air, Diggan, Yes, yes, Brian, Hello, I'm not going to call and gloat about my win too much. You just did. You literally began to call gloating about your win. How many times I'll go to that,

I'll go to the of the chat right here. How many times have I ever gloated about a win? Huh many many times? Brian. Despicable this person, But I did want to I did want to clarify. I think we could have cleared this up a little bit earlier. If you go back and you watch my show a few weeks ago. My co host did ask me, is the bet does this mean if m JF gets a hero's reception? Is that just to clarify, it's m JF getting cheered

as a hero. I did confirm, yes, that is that was the case that was part of the bet, and I also added that it would happened before for before full years. Hold on a minute, I was all ready to pay you the money, and now you tell me that on another show you clarified your bet. Well, I clarified the bet on another show too. No one allowed me to get away with it. This was three weeks ago. You can go back and check the I don't care if I can go back getting regardless. I think I

think the matter has been resolved. The impartial judge rules in my favor. I did for a while. You know, I didn't hear from a lawyer and he goes, honestly, you you you you, you know this is not going to hold up in court because there should have been more clarification in the contract. Oh really was the lawyer smart Mark Sterling Kansas that the lawyer that you can ful? Alright, what do you want? Well, well, listen, I did have

a legitimate question for you guys. Okay, Um, we're at the point I think in wrestling where all the big free agents that are out there have either gone back to w W or have gone over to a W. So, in your opinion, who would be the biggest name to make any sort of significant impact whether or not they jumped from a w W, W E or vice versa over the next year. Is that MGF potentially going to wwion he's not gonna are we Wait a second, Wait a second, wait a second, digging, We got to clarify

the contract. I don't want another one of these incidents. MJF is not going to w w E this year. So what are we doing? Like we can name anybody so I can say, like, well, you know, if the rock went to a w that'd be a game changer. Are we talking about people that muck could because the first off, there's a whole bunch of people that can't go anywhere. So are we gonna add those to this? Are we only talking about people that could jump from one place to another? I would say we should look

at this realistically. Who could jump from one place to the other and then over the next year and a half, let's say, depending on contract status is and things like that. All Right, I want to thank you very much for the call. I mean, there's there's not a lot of options here everybody. I mean, Sasha, but I don't know, I don't know how much of an impact she would she would honestly make. I mean, you know, Sasha, here

we go again, right, listen, page was a huge star. Okay, huge are and uh and she is, uh, you know, she hasn't made a massive difference day W. I mean, are we are? Are we gonna honestly play this game where if Sasha went to a W should be even see Hi Punk numbers when he debuted and they were doing like one point four million for that that debut, Because that's not gonna happen. So, I mean, I don't

know who. I don't know who the biggest person that is available would even be right now because most everyone's tied up pretty long term. I don't know anybody who's deal is up imminently. Am I missing somebody? No, not a steel? What kind of impact do you think Sasha haven't stardom if she goes there? I have no idea. I have no earthly idea what difference in will or

will not make? She apparently teased that on our Instagram put in her pictures the one to face off against Kyrie, the former Kyrie, saying in w W, E who's back over and start them now? And that's nice because up for she still has to be released, you know, but if she does get released in some ways, I mean, I guess that would be a pretty big impact into a W again. Does it make monstrous difference? No, it doesn't.

You know, it would be like if Batista came over, Well, that would be a big deal for a minute, except for he's not gonna be wrestling that much, and he's just another personality who might be there once in a while. So I don't know, you know, m JF going the other direction obviously that really hurts a W badly. I know Owens is locked up, brains is locked up. I don't know who else is. Let's say Seth Rollins. I mean,

it would make a big difference. It would help a W immensely if Becky and Seth were magically cleared from their contracts and walked over. But the number that Becky did back when she was at her hottest, I don't think she'll be able to just fall into a W and do that same thing. So again, it's almost an it's an unanswerable question. Really. All right, well let's go to uh this fella here in Houston. You're on the air. What's going on? Hey, good afternoon, gentlemen. It's the building

from Houston, Texas building. Hey, real quick, I don't know if you guys already mentioned this or not. I tuned in readily to the show, but I read the unfortunate news that Kevin Nash's son unfortunately passed away today at the age. I just wanted to wish him major love and you know, I hope every everyone is okay. Yes, best wishes to Kevin Nash. I saw that earlier. Horrible. There's not much I can really add to that, as

as the father, you know dropped. Sorry as a kid, so I hope you were waiting for me that way, But yeah, I mean for again, it's I can't imagine, you know, parent bearing a son is awful. So it's terrible situation, terrible Alright, Kelly, I believe this is Kelly. You're on the air. What's going on? Hey, as far as the ratings go dropping, if you own the stock and that thing dropped, are you joking? Are you kidding

me here? You're kidding me. I'm not kidding here. No, no, hold on a second, it's not even on the same day, dude, it got moved to a different day. To be honest and say that Mosley's bleeding forehead and the boring cowboys aren't moving the numbers. Do you realize do you realize what they put on that last SmackDown and moved to f S one when they dropped seventy Can you imagine if w W E stock drops? Oh my god, I can't. I can't believe they weren't immediately canceled when it dropped.

I need a nine for people like that so he can he can pay to say something so dumb. It was monstrously stupid. Congratulations, my friend, you had the dumbest call of the year so far. He compared it to a stock I know, I know. It tells me a guy isn't now a lot of stock holdings. Yeah, alright, let's go to Boonville. You're on the air. What's going on? Hey, how are you gonna? What do you think about the whole Athena match? And? Uh, it kind of has me

worried about Page being cleared. So the Athena mat. Hold on, what match are we talking about? Here? Are you talking about Dark? Yeah? I saw that, Actually I did see that. I don't know what's going on there because those of you didn't see it. I don't. I still don't even know what happened. But like, Athena did a match on Dark and she just smashed, just absolutely smashed this woman. And I don't know if it was like a very very well worked massacre, if she didn't like the person

or like what happened. But man, I had a lot of people send me the send me that clip, a lot of fake outrage. Like that last call kind of sounded like that's the direction it was going in, as if Atheno, Oh my god, Now we gotta worry about Page because she might run into Athena. Oh Mike, come on, you need to worry about Page, because you need to worry about Page like you've worried about everybody else with spinal stenosis, whether it be edge or sting or whoever

it is. That's why you have to worry about it. That's it, period. You know this this pearl clutching over a match that I guess maybe went a little too far or whatever. You know, who cares? You know, these things happen, and they were talked to him. I care if I were the victim, but I don't know what happened. But pretty there was a souplex over the top where she just tossed her She land on her side on the ground. That was scary. Hey, that's and that's for

her boss to worry about. But this whole pearl clutching thing with all of these older guys from the past who relish in telling stories about beating up a job or doing this or doing that. It's the ones with the fake outrage. It's the ones with the fake nonsense and the bs and the care over this. We're basically doing it to take a shot at a W because you know, only in a W people get hurt, not

like you know, Biggie or anybody like that. You know, Rich holland you start picking your names up from the next time. But I mean there's a big difference, and that one was an accident and an assault. But that's the problem is that's what people are trying to compare these things too, and it's like it's a match that went a little bit too far. That will be what

it is. But like that as the reason that a W is a dangerous place to work and all this other saying that you should worry about Page is probably overstating it. But I I am wondering what the heck happened in that match? That was nuts. I'm gonna do some investigation. Have her come on call Athena, have her come on, you talk about it. Let's be real. I'll right, Uh, this person here is from New York. What's going on? Hold on? Sold on? Call her? Listen? First off, your

first off. First off, if you have Athene on the show and you go, hey, were you unprofessional in that match? She can say no, and then probably would phrase it a little bit different. If you can call the other the other lady and you say, you know, were you taking advantage of in this match? Well, if she ever used to work in a WAIN, she can say why would you ask her a leading as question like that? Just say what you said? You let me know what went on there? You said, no, don't tell me what

I said around? Yes, okay, what happened during the I'm Athena. Yeah, ask I'm Athena. Well, Athena. There's been a lot of talk, in a lot of online debate over what happened during that match, and you being talked to by a w officials, do you have any comment on that? What did you think about the match? What happened there? She could either say I defeated her handily. Okay, now pretend I'm the other lady. Okay, same thing, same Hushton goes to you. Boy,

Okay, So that guy, it's that guy who had the question about the the the ratings, you know, he calls the all screener picks up. They go, what's your name? He goes, you know, Floyd. Okay, what's your question? Oh man, I thought that ratings were great. I want

I think there's a there's a light detector as part of this call screening process. Books, lie, if you gonna get on the air and ask a stupid question. You can so we got so many Bob Bob Booie's on TV in the nineties. Yeah, Jericho's back called the show. Floyd probably would had a much better question.
